The role of vitamin A:
Vitamin A to maintain normal visual responses. Maintain the normal epithelial tissue morphology and function. To maintain normal bone development. Have to maintain the function of skin cells, make the skin soft and delicate, with wrinkle wrinkle effect. Lack of vitamin A, make epithelial cells dysfunction, resulting in decreased skin elasticity, dry, rough and dull.
Vitamin A is a complex body of essential nutrients, which in different ways affects almost all body tissues. Although the vitamin is first discovered, but about its physiological function has not been made fully opened. On current knowledge, the vitamin A (including carotene) is the effect and role of the most important include:
The effect of vitamin A:
1, to prevent night blindness and vision loss, to help treat a variety of diseases of the eye (the eye of vitamin A can promote the formation of light-sensitive pigment);
2, the efficacy of anti-respiratory infections;
3, help the immune system function properly;
4, ill a speedy recovery;
5, the surface to maintain the health of tissues or organs;
6, helps eliminate age spots;
7, to promote growth, strong bones, maintaining skin, hair, teeth, gums healthy;
8, external help for acne, pustules, boils, skin ulcers embolism treatment;
9, contribute to emphysema, the treatment of hyperthyroidism.
Vitamin A role:
1, to maintain visual
Vitamin A can promote sensitive visual pigment cell formation. All-trans retinal can be catalyzed retinal isomerase 4 – cis – retinal, 4 – cis – retinal and opsin can be combined into rhodopsin (rhodopsin). Rhodopsin when exposed to light after one of the 4 – cis – retinal into all-trans retinal, because the conformational changes caused by stimulation of the optic nerve, causing vision. The case of rhodopsin after light unstable and rapidly broken down into opsin and all-trans retinal, re-start the whole cycle. Vitamin A can debug the eyes adapt to the intensity of light's ability to reduce the incidence of night blindness and vision loss, to maintain normal visual responses, contribute to a variety of eye diseases (such as eye dryness and conjunctivitis treatment). The role of vitamin A for vision is first discovered, and it is understood most of the functionality.
2, to promote the growth and development
And retinol on gene regulation. Retinol also has the equivalent of the role of steroid hormones, can promote the synthesis of glycoproteins. Promote growth, development, strong bones, maintaining hair, teeth and gums healthy.
3, to maintain the integrity of epithelial structure and integrity
Retinol and retinoic acid can regulate gene expression, reduced to the scale-like epithelial cell differentiation, increasing the number of epidermal growth factor receptor. Thus, vitamin A can regulate epithelial cell growth, maintenance of normal epithelial tissue morphology and function. To keep the skin moist and prevent drying horny skin and mucous membranes, less susceptible to bacterial damage, help for acne, pustules, boils, skin ulcers embolism treatment; helps eliminate age spots; to maintain healthy tissue or organ surface. Lack of vitamin A, make epithelial cells dysfunction, resulting in decreased skin elasticity, dry, rough and dull.
4, strengthen the immune
Vitamin A helps maintain normal immune system function, can strengthen the infectious diseases, especially respiratory infections and parasitic infections of the body resistance; contribute to emphysema, the treatment of hyperthyroidism.
5, free radical scavenging
Vitamin A also has some antioxidant, can neutralize harmful free radicals.

Town Court Clerk Fired Over Missing Money
Thousands of dollars are apparently missing from Potsdam Town Court.
"The comptroller's office is still doing an ongoing investigation of the court audit and all I can tell you is that they hope to be completed in the next few weeks," said town Supervisor Marie Regan.
"She was suspended with pay in June until early in September. She is no longer on the payroll," said Regan.
"It's clean bill of health according to the materials that we were privy to," said Regan.
(Our initial headline said a town clerk was fired. It was supposed to say town court clerk.)

Rush's Stack of Stuff
Some of the topics we're loaded with today: Gingrich Takes on Romney || GM to Call Back 8,000 Chevy Volts || Santorum Raises Millions in 24 Hours || Obama Embraces Signing Statements After Knocking Bush for Using Them
Some of the topics we're loaded with today: Gingrich Takes on Romney || GM to Call Back 8,000 Chevy Volts || Santorum Raises Millions in 24 Hours || Obama Embraces Signing Statements After Knocking Bush for Using Them
Dems Can't Decide How to Attack Romney... Panetta Slashes Military... GM Moves Coal-Fired Plants to China, Recalls ALL Chevy Volts... Obama Prepared to Share Missile Defense Secrets with Russia...Gitmo Taliban to be Released in Deal... Secret to Happy Marriage is Not Living Together
Mitt Romney survived the Santorum Surge, barely; Michele Bachmann suspended her campaign; Ron Paul, Newt, Huntsman are still kicking; as is Rick Perry, after going home to Texas to think things over.
RUSH: While we're sitting here worried about semantics and "sounding presidential," we've got a guy living and behaving outside the Constitution! We have a lawless regime here.
RUSH: Part of a warning I gave you to get ready going into this year was: The economic news is all going to be reported as great and good. "Obama's policies are finally taking root now! The economy was so much worse than anybody knew! Bush, Cheney had lied to the Obama transition team."
RUSH: This is lawless behavior by an out-of-control, rogue executive. This is what happens in banana republics, tinhorn dictatorships. In places like Venezuela, this is what happens -- all under the guise of populism and helping the middle class.
RUSH: Gerald Ford said that Ronald Reagan was unelectable. George H.W. Bush said that Ronald Reagan was unelectable. The entire Republican establishment thought Ronald Reagan was unelectable because they were governed and informed by the Goldwater landslide defeat. That's what they think will happen to every conservative. Don't doubt me.
RUSH: The media is gonna be zeroing in on he's a pro-life extremist. He's racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe. They're gonna be zeroing in on all this and you're gonna find out how he bears up under it. We are all going to find out.
RUSH: I just don't think this is gonna be the slam-dunk Steelers win everybody thinks it is.
RUSH: Republican voters are tired of their candidate being made fun of and laughed at 'cause they're stupid hicks -- when they're not, but they're characterized that way.
RUSH: Rank-and-file Democrats are scared to death. They see what we see.
RUSH: The Democrats, Obama, the media, they want this over. They want Romney.
RUSH: My guess is that most people are gonna look at it and take it entirely personally and think, "Wow, this is cool." They're not gonna see the extra-constitutionality of it, the illegality of it, the tax consequences of it, the cost to them of it.

200 Police People To Arrest YS Family
Police have finally arrested YS family that is staging protest in front of Dilkusha guest house regarding Jagan's arrest. It took more than 200 police members at the guest house to take the situation under control.
After an hour of tense moments at Dilkusha, YSR Congress leaders and family members of Jagan who are staging a 'dharna' in front of CBI camp office are finally arrested by the police. A total of 100 women police are deployed at Raj Bhavan road to move the protesting women family members of YS Jagan. YS Vijayamma, Bharathi, Sharmila, Anil, Jupudi and YV Subbareddy are among the list. It is a violent moment while the family members are dragged into police jeep, with Jagan's wife Bharathi continuously shouting 'Leave me, Leave me' in an angered tone.
However, Vijayamma, Bharati and Sharmila are sent to Jagan's Lotus Pond residence, while MLC Jupudi and YV Subbareddy are still with the police. Though media is prevented from capturing all those visuals, none of the shutterbug has stopped himself from doing that.

RUSH: We talked about the Romney. Now time to bring up Mitch Daniels. As you know, Mitch Daniels appeared last night in Indianapolis. "With 1,100 people chanting 'Run, Mitch, Run,' Gov. Mitch Daniels took the stage here Thursday night and did something he's never done before: He introduced his wife Cheri, and then he turned the microphone over to her to address the sold-out crowd. It was Cheri Daniels' first-ever speech at a big political event in all the years she has been Indiana's First Lady. And with speculation over whether her husband will enter the presidential race now at a fever-pitch, her mere presence at the podium for the annual state GOP dinner had everyone searching for clues and hidden meanings."
Now, the reason for this is people in Indiana are very much aware that she does not like politics. She just doesn't like it, and she has said publicly that she has no desire to be first lady or to do any of the things that that job requires. That's why people were paying attention last night. In fact, I'll tell you a little secret. In the past six months, I have met with two or three Republican presidential candidates -- some who had not announced at the time, some who had -- and I asked them all about Mitch Daniels. All of them (and I'm talking maybe three or four) without exception said, "He's not gonna run. Wife hates it. Wife hates politics. We're not worried about Mitch Daniels. All this talk with Daniels? At the end of it, Rush, Daniels isn't running. Wife won't let him. Wife doesn't like it, doesn't like politics, doesn't like the campaign trail, doesn't want any part of it.
"I said, "Are you sure? Why is he acting like he's acting? Why flirt with this if it's so a fait accompli?"
"I don't know, Rush. He's not running."
I've heard this from three or four Republican hopefuls. So now she's making speeches in Indianapolis and breaking new ice, new ground, having done that -- and it seems like that conventional wisdom is about to be blown up, too.
RUSH: No, I'm not gonna tell you who told me. If I start saying names like that these people will stop talking to me. I'm just going to tell you it's three or four Republican presidential candidates (some had announced and some hadn't at the time) going back six weeks or two months ago, and without fail, they all said, "There's no way that Mitch Daniels is gonna run. His wife won't let him," or, "His wife hates politics. His wife doesn't want to be first lady." They were not concerned at all.
I said, "Well, that doesn't make sense, because Mitch Daniels clearly wants people to think that it's better than 50-50 he's going to. He's positioning himself to run."
"He's not gonna run. He's not. His wife can't stand it."
So we move to last night. Eleven hundred people chanting, "Run, Mitch, run!" Cheri Daniels makes her first ever speech and CBS News' Jan Crawford was there, "And as a sign of how important his wife is to the decision, sources tell CBS News that even former First Lady Laura Bush has called Cheri Daniels personally to encourage her to support the effort and offer advice on how to define what her role on the campaign -- and potentially in the White House -- would be." Now, what does that tell you? If Laura Bush has called Cheri Daniels, then Mitch is in -- and if Laura Bush has called Cheri Daniels, it means that Mitch Daniels is who the Bush people (the political team) hopes gets the nomination.
That's what it means. So the full-court press is being applied to Cheri Daniels with Laura Bush calling her up, "Hey, you can do this! Here's how you do this. I did it. I didn't really want to do it, either, but here's how you make it work." So it's clear the Bush political team wants Daniels -- and, for her part, Cheri Daniels did not rule it out. She did stand up and make a speech and she left a lot of people with the impression that she's gonna sign off on it. Mitch Daniels has left people with the impression that he doesn't care how she defines the role. If she wants to be first lady couple days a week...
He didn't say it this way my interpretation is if she didn't want to go on the campaign trail on Friday or Saturday or Monday,Tuesday, Wednesday, she doesn't have to; if she wants to be first lady one or two days a week, fine. There's no rules. Whatever she wants she can do. That's how I interpreted what Mitch said. Now, you people -- I'm sure all of you in Indianapolis were there last night -- and I'll hear from you today on Open Line Friday and tell me where I'm wrong about my interpretation. You're welcome to. I'm not being critical -- and, in fact, have you noticed how the media is desperately trying to manufacture some kind of scandal out of Mitch Daniels and his wife having divorced and then remarried?
They got divorced. I forget the years. I think it was 1994 they divorced, and she married an old high school boyfriend, and it didn't work out, and they found each other again, and everything's hunky-dory now. Now, these reporters are pretending to be concerned about Cheri Daniels' concerns for privacy. That's one of her big problems here -- and that's understandable; she won't have any -- and the reporters pretending to be concerned about that. But of course what the reporters are really doing is threatening the Daniels that they're gonna rip them to shreds if it's at all possible.
One thing: Mitch is no different than any other Republican candidate in the sense that if he is the nominee, he's gonna get a media anal like he's never had before -- and so will his wife, and so will that divorce and remarriage, and the Drive-Bys are signaling that, if it's at all possible they will rip them to shreds over it, 'cause it just doesn't seem conventional. But I'm just say with Laura calling Cheri Daniels, what is that? It's pretty fait accompli, is it not? At the very least it tells us that the Bush political team wants Mitch Daniels, that that's their guy -- and to the extent the Bush political team are kingmakers, we'll see.
Now let's move to the Washington Post. Ruth Marcus. She's a columnist at the Washington Post, and her piece ran yesterday. I'm just gonna read the open here verbatim. "I hope Mitch Daniels runs for president." Now, remember: Ruth Marcus will vote for Obama. Ruth Marcus is a Democrat. Ruth Marcus will never, ever vote for a Republican just like Chris Cillizza at the Washington Post is gonna vote Obama. So is Ruth Marcus. So here you have State-Controlled Media. "I hope Mitch Daniels runs for president. Let me go further: I hope he wins the Republican nomination. I can't imagine voting for him.
"But Daniels's presence would improve the 2012 campaign. He'd make Barack Obama a better candidate. The current Republican field runs the gamut from flawed to laughable. The least flawed is former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty, but just being the guy who's left after all the other candidates are crossed off for one reason or another isn't the strongest claim to lead your party. Daniels, former director of the Office of Management and Budget, current governor of Indiana, is the un-Romney.
"Unlike former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, whose only core conviction seems to be that he ought to be president, Daniels has a set and stable worldview. He is the un-Trump -- indeed, the un-Newt. Bluster and bravado are not words that come to mind when you meet Daniels. Short and balding, he has the air of an accountant at a midsized manufacturing firm." This woman, Ruth Marcus, goes on to tell us she wants Daniels to be the nominee because that will make it a more interesting campaign. She will be more entertained, and at the end of, it will improve Obama as a candidate, and he might even win with a bigger electoral majority and end up being a better president!
Now, if you're in the Daniels camp, I don't know how you interpret this. This is the second time now the Washington Post has run a story urging your nomination. The Washington Post, everybody knows, is gonna vote for Obama; is gonna do everything it can to reelect Obama. Now, I'm sorry, folks, but I can't help it. I live in Realville. Literalville. It has a small population, small town. Logic and common sense are the prominent characteristics of residents of Liberalville -- and if I got Ruth Marcus here writing about how she wants Mitch Daniels to run for president and win the Republican nomination but wants Obama to win, then something tells me that she believes that Mitch Daniels would pose not that big a challenge.
Turn it around. Let's say we're all supporters of Ronald Reagan. He's coming up on his second term, and the Democrats tell us that they're going to nominate either Mario Cuomo or Walter Mondull, and we say, "Well, you know what? We really want a good campaign; we want to be entertained here. We think Mondale is good. Mondale, Mondale, that's the guy! Mondale, he'd give Reagan the best run for his money." Who would believe us? If we did something akin to this -- started trying to pick their nominee -- they would accuse us of trying to pick somebody's gonna lose. Here they are, at least the Washington Post, trying to pick our nominee on the basis that it would be boring to have anybody but Mitch be the nominee, and only Mitch stands a chance of winning.
Does that make sense to you?
You want your guy to win, but you want him opposed by somebody who might beat him? Does that make sense? So what kind of fools do they think we are? I understand the thinking because I understand liberals, but I don't understand it at the same time. What in the world...? Why write this. Who is she trying to impress? I guarantee you it's other writers. "I hope Mitch Daniels runs for president. Let me go further. I hope he wins the nomination. I can't imagine voting for him," but you want him to win 'cause it'll be a more entertaining campaign and a better challenge, make your guy a better candidate? Do you care about your guy being the better candidate or do you care about him winning?
RUSH: Ruth Marcus, simply put, is saying Mitch Daniels will make Obama look good. Is that the perspective that you view all of this in, pick a nominee that will make the incumbent look good? That's what Ruth Marcus is saying. Here, a couple more quick lines from her piece. "The real appeal of a Daniels candidacy is that I believe he is serious about reducing the debt and realistic about what it will take to achieve that," and then she cites what she thinks that is. Raising taxes. "In a rigid GOP world of no-new-taxes ideologues, Daniels actually proposed a temporary tax increase to help close the state's budget gap."
So what Ruth is saying here is, give us Mitch because that gets rid of these far right-wingers who are talking tax cuts and austerity, give us one of us, give us a tax increaser. It's kind of like what Pelosi said. (paraphrasing) "Can we go back to the days where it didn't matter who won elections, when there wasn't that big a difference, it really didn't matter. The differences weren't that stark or Draconian." Now, if Michelle Obama calls Cheri Daniels and urges her to get in like Laura Bush did, then -- (laughing) -- well, I don't know if we would ever hear about that.

Eric Holder acknowledges homegrown threat but can't bring himself to name it
Seriously, this sort of nonsense has to stop:
"What I am trying to do in this interview is to make people aware of the fact that the threat is real, the threat is different, the threat is constant," he said.
And the threat is from?
What was uppermost on his mind, however, is the alarming rise in the number of Americans who are more than willing to attack and kill their fellow citizens.
Yes? And who are these Americans? What do they have in common?
"It is one of the things that keeps me up at night," Holder said. "You didn't worry about this even two years ago — about individuals, about Americans, to the extent that we now do. And — that is of — of great concern."
"The threat has changed from simply worrying about foreigners coming here, to worrying about people in the United States, American citizens — raised here, born here, and who for whatever reason, have decided that they are going to become radicalized and take up arms against the nation in which they were born," he said.
Hello – what else have they in common? What has "radicalized" them?
In the last 24 months, Holder said, 126 people have been indicted on terrorist-related charges, Fifty of those people are American citizens.
"I think that what is most alarming to me is the totality of what we see, the attorney general said. "Whether it is an attempt to bomb the New York City subway system, an attempt to bring down an airplane over Detroit, an attempt to set off a bomb in Times Square … I think that gives us a sense of the breadth of the challenges that we face, and the kinds of things that our enemy is trying to do."
Holder says many of these converts to al Qaeda have something in common: a link to radical cleric Anwar Al Awlaki, an American citizen himself.
And Al Awlaki and al Qaeda are both driven by what? Al Awlaki is what sort of cleric?
"He's an extremely dangerous man. He has shown a desire to harm the United States, a desire to strike the homeland of the United States," Holder said. "He is a person who — as an American citizen — is familiar with this country and he brings a dimension, because of that American familiarity, that others do not."
Holder said that as a threat to the United States, Awlaki ranks right up there with Osama bin Laden.
"He would be on the same list with bin Laden," the attorney general said. "He's up there. I don't know whether he's one, two, three, four — I don't know. But he's certainly on the list of the people who worry me the most."
Yes, yes and what is the common thread between Awlaki, bin Laden, al Qaeda and the people who keep Holder up at night?
"I have to have all those tools available to me to try to keep the American people safe, and to do the job that I'm supposed to do as a 21st century attorney general," Holder said.
Holder said the United States has made great strides in improving its ability to detect and block attacks, which is shown by the number of would-be terrorists who have been stopped before they could kill Americans. The intelligence community is working around the clock, he said, with little time off.
Well acknowledging that every single one of the "terrorists" or "radicals" among the 50 or so apprehended this year was Muslim or a convert to Islam might go a long way in identifying the threat. Osama bin Laden, Al Awlaki and the 50 Americans all have in common their brand of radical Islam. Al Qaeda didn't just pop up because it thought it would be fun to target and kill Americans, it exists because its followers believe in a radical brand of Islam that instructs them to make war against infidels. And America is considered the infidel of infidel nations. Ergo, it is their primary target.
Without the underlying thread of their radical beliefs, they have no real reason to attack us. But, acknowledging that all 50 of the "Americans" were Muslim and the fact that all 126 arrested shared that same radical faith would mean acknowledging that Muslims are 100% of the problem. Can't do that and search granny at the airport (in the name of fairness)can we? Can't do that and risk the charge of "profiling" – something we absolutely ought to be doing until circumstance or evidence lead us to do otherwise.
Why is it we'll subject our own citizens to degrading, humiliating and intrusive searches of their person at airports and yet we won't do the logical thing necessary to actually protect our citizenry? Profiling is done everyday in law enforcement – just ask about how serial killers are identified. When a description of a perpetrator is circulated, it will have the perp's gender, race and age. That is profiling data which helps narrow the search.
To this point we haven't had a non-Muslim attacker try to blow any of us up. Why are we so shy about saying that "radical Islam" is the problem, and until they prove otherwise, the larger set of Muslims in the US are a potential threat? How do you argue otherwise given the evidence?
Does that mean we should go on a witch hunt within the American Muslim community? Of course not – but, we shouldn't avoid the fact that the threat has consistently and exclusively come from that community and that until it stops, they'll be views suspiciously, watched closely and receive the most scrutiny.
But we won't. Just as Eric Holder spent an entire interview avoiding the use of the words "Muslim" or "Islam", we'll continue to eschew the obvious and doing what is logical for the appearance of being "fair". Apparently fairness, not security, is our nation's highest priority – at least for now.
How Terrorism Wins – Part II
Fareed Zakaria provides the second installment in how terrorists win (the example of the Met deciding not to show art depicting the prophet Mohammed being the first):
In responding to the attempted bombing of an airliner on Christmas Day, Sen. Dianne Feinstein voiced the feelings of many when she said that to prevent such situations, "I'd rather overreact than underreact." This appears to be the consensus view in Washington, but it is quite wrong. The purpose of terrorism is to provoke an overreaction. Its real aim is not to kill the hundreds of people directly targeted but to sow fear in the rest of the population. Terrorism is an unusual military tactic in that it depends on the response of the onlookers. If we are not terrorized, then the attack didn't work. Alas, this one worked very well.
He is exactly right. Terrorism is all about effecting change through the threat of or use of violence. It is a tool of the weak that can be devastatingly effective if those at whom it is aimed overreact. The aim may be political change. The aim may be economic change. Or terrorists may be satisfied with any change they can effect through their actions which makes life miserable for those at whom it is aimed. As Zakaria points out, given our response, the latest terrorist failure is, in fact, a win. We're jumping through our collective arses trying to react to the threat and pretty much settling on making air travel more miserable for everyone.
Overreacting to terrorist attacks plays into al-Qaeda's hands. It also provokes responses that are likely to be large-scale, expensive, ineffective and possibly counterproductive. More screening for every passenger makes no sense. When searching for needles in haystacks, adding hay doesn't help. What's needed is a larger, more robust watch list that is instantly available to all relevant government agencies. Almost 2 million people travel on planes in the United States every day. We need to isolate the tiny percentage of suspicious characters and search them, not cause needless fear in everyone else.
We know, to this point the one common thread that links these "needles" and separates them from the "hay". But we continue to resist using that as a discriminator as we refine our security searches because, apparently, discrimination (aka "profiling") is a much worse political sin than getting airliners with 300 souls on board blown out of the sky.
It simply defies common sense.

Very good!
As an elementary school English as a second language teacher, I find that many of Mobile Education Stores' apps are great. I use Rainbow Sentences because it has students think carefully about constructing grammatically correct sentences in a colorful and playful way. In the settings menu the teacher can scaffold the sentence building so that beginning kindergarteners all the way up to around the end of second grade level students can be challenged and successful. When the students correctly answer, there are some funny animated characters that come out and cheer for them. Likewise, there are words of encouragement if they answer incorrectly. The app has a statistics page so you can monitor the students' progress. One problem I have with the app is that you cannot go from a sentence that you are building to the settings or statistics page until/unless you correctly build the sentence. This creates unnecessary hassle if you want to quickly check-in on a student's progress or change the difficulty.
Multi purpose
I love this app because it is a great structured way to support syntax development for writing and speaking. The color coding also allowed us to use it to target asking and answering questions. We used color coded "question word" cards that corresponded to the parts of speech that answered each question. After a student put a sentence together, one of his peers picked a question card and formulated a sentence, the first student then answered that question based on the content of the sentence. The app also supported their articulation goals by providing them with an opportunity to record saying the sentence, then playing it back. I also love that the complexity can be increased, and the color and line visual cues can be faded. My only request would be to add the option of making the pictures more age appropriate for high school students who are working on these goals.
It's worth the money
They put so much thought into this app, it has many levels of differentiation so I can use it with different grade levels. It's simple to sit next to a student the first time playing it and alter the level if it's too hard or too easy, AND it remembers the specific level for every student the next day. Thank you!
The pictures and sentences are cute, colorful, and kid friendly.
If they make a mistake, a pleasant, encouraging voice helps them.
The kiddos love the record feature where they can record, playback, and save their voice (while getting reading practice). This adds another level of creativity and reinforces reading with prosody.
I wish all apps were at this level of professionalism.
I only wish our entire grade level could afford it.

I meant to list this one earlier: lights 'the lungs of an animal slaughtered for food' (A-H). I ran across it in the novel Mottke the Thief by Sholem Asch (translated by the Muirs). The chapter it was used in takes place in a slaughterhouse, and one of the young hooligans is throwing lights to the pack of semi-feral dogs that hang around the place. Anyway, so called because the lungs are lighter than other organs.

rest of the offal few of us would knowingly purchase.

In a time too far ago to be connected to this age, best beloved, my grandmother would buy lights from the Co-op butcher to feed her cat. Sometimes she bought whiting.
The smell of lights cooking would drive people out of the house.

Gives a whole new meaning to "some light refreshments" being served ;)

I cooked some lights for my dog, Frito, once. He wasn't impressed and neither was I. Lights out.

In many places now you can get Hebrew National or other kosher hot dogs.

West Virginia's Geno Smith is emerging as the top quarterback of the 2013 NFL draft class, and if he continues to shine, I predict he'll be the No. 1 overall draft choice.
It's never too early to start making predictions about where the top college players will land next season in the NFL. Even though it's only Week 3 of the NFL season, it's already becoming clear where teams will need to upgrade next year.
Here are my predictions for the entire 2013 first round.

Deanna Huffman, left, looks at flowers with her mother Sue Huffman, right, while holding her niece Brezlyn Stevenson, 18 months, during the annual Spring Plant Sale at Owens.
The Blade/Amy E. Voigt

Michelle Keip, a second year Owens Community College student, gave customers information Thursday on different types of trees and shrubs outside the campus greenhouse.
"I've never been on retail, so this opens up another experience for me to share with the public what I know," she said.
It was the Landscape and Turfgrass Crew Club's annual spring plant sale, which was open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and had shrubs, rare and unusual trees, annuals, and other flowers. The sale gave students the experience of running a shop and having to work on customer relations, and it helps raise money for their annual trip for the Professional Landcare Network Student Career Days. Owens is located in Perrysburg Township.

Last year, the students went to Colorado for the competition with 68 other colleges and universities. Next year, it will be less expensive travel at North Carolina State University.
"Colorado was fantastic," Ms. Keip said. "I helped other students study and competed in wood identification competitions. We saw the Denver Botanical Gardens and their climates and plants."
She tells all the first-year students to get involved and go.
The harsh winter in northwest Ohio kept many of the annuals and other plants smaller than usual, said Chris Foley, coordinator of the landscape program. Prices were cut slightly to try to encourage more sales. The spring sale is usually two days long, but fewer plants kept it to one day.
Part-time Owens faculty member Greg Locher purchases a few roses.
"My roses died during the tough winter, so I needed to replant them and this is close, convenien,t and helps support the students," he said.

Lost in the piles and files
I was frantically looking for a document the other day so I could finish my taxes. I began in the master bedroom, moved to the kitchen where papers are sometimes piled up, and then went on to the home office. After cleaning off two desks and the top of a filing cabinet, I began to clean out a box. I didn't find the document but I did discover three unopened envelopes that contained offering checks to our church—dated July 2011. Oops.
I then moved to the church office down the highway and began the same process there. After taking a couple of hours to go through piles of stuff on my desk and a box of more stuff I kept in the shower (Yeah, I know), I opened a desk drawer. There I saw it. No, not the sought after document. Rather, I saw a file folder marked "Urgent." Behind it was a file folder marked "Important." The stuff in the "Urgent" file was dated 2005 and 2006. I guess it wasn't that urgent after all. I couldn't bear to look in the "Important" file. Who knows how long it had been in the drawer?
As embarrassing as this story is to tell, in the great scheme of life the misplaced and forgotten items were of little long-term significance. Everyone misplaces things, even important things. The tragedy is when we lose and misplace ourselves, intending—someday—to make things right.
As a pastor, I know scores of people who are "used-to-be's." That is, they are people who used to be committed, faithful Christians. They used to be dependable church members. Perhaps they used to be Sunday School teachers, board members, youth workers, or children's workers. I know people who used to be ministers, pastors, priests, and even bishops. Some of these people used to be tithers and generous givers. They used to be examples that inspired people. They used to pray. They used to read the Scriptures. They were people upon who the Church could depend. But no more.
Some are pale shadows of who they used to be while others are not who they used to be at all. Somewhere, somehow, they lost themselves in the boxes, and piles, and files of life. They have become, for all practical purposes, of no value. The checks that sat in my cardboard box in the basement office did no one any good. They had potential but not as long as they remained lost. There are those who were once useful, vibrant, even powerful, but have sadly become "used-to-be's." You know who you are.
Easter is the highest, holiest day in the Church calendar. It is also the day that most commemorates and celebrates the return of hope to those who had become hopeless. It is a day of being "found." It is a day where people who have lost themselves and have lost their way can return to God, to Church, and to usefulness.
Be found this Sunday. Hide from God and His purposes for your life no longer. Don't stay lost in the piles of stuff that life heaps upon you. Go home to Church. If you don't have one, find one. If you would like an invitation, come to my church—even if only for one Sunday. God will restore you and life will become good again—but you must want to be found. Your file really is marked "Urgent." Don't ignore it—please!

Flooding in my apartment after storm. My apartment took a beating after Irene. My neighbor said she heard the city of Middlesex was offering up supplies to victims. I can't seem to find the information regarding this anywhere. Is it open to all residents? Just home owners? I am lacking cleaning supplies at this point and this is an unexpected expense I cannot absorb!
Link to this answerMeggy2+ weeks old
The supplies aren't only for home owners. Any resident can go seek help. All they have to do is go to the Municipal Building and stop by the Clerk's Office, they'll be able to help you there. There have been a lot of people who were similarly affected, so believe me, you weren't alone in this. I hope you're okay, and get the help you need.

KG JV Foxes roll past Spotsy Knights
- Details

The Foxes junior varsity football team is proof positive that the junior varsity program can have a huge impact on the varsity level. Last Wednesday, at Hunter Field, the Foxes (2-1) used their big play style of offense to pummel the visiting Spotsylvania Knights, 49-7.
From his quarterback position, De'Quan Whiting lit up the scoreboard with thrown
touchdowns, and one score rushing. Throughout the game, six different Foxes caught, ran, or threw a touchdown. On the defensive side of the ball, with the exception of one drive, the Foxes never allowed the Knights to penetrate their red-zone.
In the first quarter, after an apparent 75-yard touchdown was reduced to a drive that began deep in the heart of Knight territory, Whiting completed a 24-yard touchdown to Antwan Brown. After a missed extra point attempt, King George led 6-0.
On the ensuing possession, with less than four minutes remaining in the first quarter, the Foxes capitalized on a Knight turnover. On the very next play, Marquis Johnson busted through the Knight line for a 25-yard touchdown.
In the second quarter, after a 66-yard run, Fox fullback, Zach King scored from six yards out to extend the Foxes lead, 26-0.
With time running out in the first half, Jacolby White gave the Foxes another opportunity to score with a 32-yard run to the Knight eight-yard line, which set up a Whiting to Trevor Parr eight-yard touchdown.
Later on a punt return, with 13 seconds left in the half, Johnson sealed the Knights' fate with a 36-yard touchdown. After a two-point conversion, King George led 42-0, going into the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter, the Knights were able to avoid the shutout with a three-yard touchdown by Naquan Smith. Later in the quarter, Foxes running back Jaylen Brinson scored 29-yard touchdown to complete the scoring. After a successful point after, the final was score was 49-7.
On Wednesday, the Foxes junior varsity travel will play Chancellor, while their varsity counterparts will celebrate their homecoming by hosting Chancellor at Hunter Field. Junior varsity game time is 7 p.m., while the varsity is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.

Hello there,
I'm a little new to xbmc, and i like it very much but i got a problem with my music collection.
I'm unable to play my music when opening it from the Music>Files Menu (can't find next item to play!)
I ripped all these CD's with WMP to lossless WMA in the my Music Library.
What do i have to do?
Thanks a lot!
PS: windows 7 home premium 64 bit

I don't think XBMC will play lossless WMA. The problem is that WMA is a closed format and Microsoft have never released the details. If you want to use open source software to play your CDs the best option is to rerip them as FLAC because everything plays FLACs.

Lossless WMA is different than normal WMA.
However, somewhat recently someone was able to reverse engineer Lossless WMA and add it to ffmpeg, so XBMC should gain this ability the next time we bump our internal ffmpeg library (most likely for the v13 release of XBMC).
Full disclosure: I work for WeTek. However, this is my personal account, and my words and opinion are my own.

They just can't seem to get over the hump. As a result, Liberty seems destined to be a middle-of-the-pack member of the Seminole District volleyball club.
This past Thursday night was a microcosm of the Lady Minutemen's season. After storming out to a furious start, they knocked the visitors from Brookville back on their heels. Liberty claimed the opening set in neat fashion, 25-22.
The Wicked Witch of the West being the notable exception, there are few folks who abhor water these days as much as the Jefferson Forest golf team.
The Cavs saw their season stopped in a sad and soggy style, done in by an eminently more powerful foe: Old Ma Nature.
She turned on the spigots Tuesday morning, turning what had been an already damp Ivy Hill course into an unplayable one. If she'd waited another hour to let loose the liquid, JF might have pulled out the win.
What's worse than a 105-mile, two-hour late night bus ride?
How about such a sojourn while mulling over a loss?
That's the nightmare scenario facing Jefferson Forest as it heads to lightly-regarded Turner Ashby this Friday evening.
The Cavs couldn't be in a better spot. They are sitting on a superb record of 6-0. They are rated as the second best team in 4A-North.
They have been racking up points with breathtaking alacrity. Their defense seems to be tightening up nicely.
This may not be just what the doctor ordered.
A Liberty team which has seen its roster suffer hits due to injury and departure got to rest up last week, a bye firmly in its collective grasp.
So, having an extra week to regroup and recuperate was certainly swell.
And, you'd think that a game this Friday against a 2A-level foe would be an ideal way to get back into the swing of things.
It's good to be the king. Just ask Chris Tidwell.
The offensive guard and defensive tackle's work in the trenches all season long would have earned the praise of King Richard the Line-Heart.
This past Friday, against Amherst, Tidwell plucked a loose fumble in the end zone as deftly as King Arthur drew Excalibur from the stone. And while Arthur's act presaged Camelot, Tidwell's play helped ice Jefferson Forest's victory over the Lancers.
For a team that was decimated by graduation losses, the Jefferson Forest golfing Cavaliers sure look like a bunch of winners.
The Cavs added to their trove of treasure as they brought home the 4A-North region's first-place trophy on Monday.
Already the top team in the Seminole District and in Conference 24, the regional champs now take aim at the big prize: a State 4A-level championship.
Holy cow!
My goodness!
That mix of exasperation and awe is what is being experienced by fans of the foes of Jefferson Forest football.
The latest to experience such emotions: the Heritage Pioneers.
That's the same Heritage Pioneers who have been to the State semifinals (last year) and finals (the year before). Yup, the Pioneers who last lost a regular-season game nearly two years ago (and that was to eventual State champion Brookville).
Do you believe in déjà vu?
It doesn't take a fan of such phenomena to get that feeling about Liberty football.
To wit: Last year, the Minutemen sported a 4-1 record at this point last year.
After convincing wins over Staunton River and Rockbridge, the M-Men lost a gut-wrencher to Brookville.
Just like this year.
Then the team earned a tight win over Rustburg.
Well, Liberty fans, lets hope this reliving of last year ends this week.
They sure don't look like an 0-5 team.
They play with heart, skill and determination. They've shown an unwillingness to quit, no matter the opponent and no matter the circumstances.
In short, the Staunton River Golden Eagles play as though they are the consummate winners.
But, alas, the record stands at 0-5.
You can blame the schedule. You can blame fate and its issuance of confounding bad breaks for the team.
Sometimes you have to just make do.
And sometimes, that works out just fine.
Take last Friday night as an example.
Instead of a guy with three and a half years of experience under center, Liberty found itself with a young man who had three and a half quarters of experience at quarterback.
Instead of a pair of veteran tight ends, the team lined up with next to zero experience at the position.
They had to head to Rustburg to play the Red Devils at Eternal Perdition Field.
