Staff Position Details
Assistant Registration Logistical Coordinator
The Registration Logistical Coordinator is responsible for organizing the volunteers sent to Registration in tasks such as stuffing Registration bags with programs, schedules, Con Chowders, flyers, etc., passing out bags to attendees as they exit Registration, helping to manage the lines, helping to keep stations stocked with lanyards, badge holders, badge stock, stickers, etc. and any other duties as needed.
The Coordinator is also responsible for monitoring how long it takes attendees to go through the registration line at-con.
As with all Registration staff, the Registration Logistical Coordinator must assist with the operations of the Division, specifically:
- Taking registration information and payment at-con
- Taking registration information and payment at pre-registration events around the Boston area and at other conventions, as able. (Being able to make one or two events, for a few hours, is sufficient.)
- Checking ID and issuing badges to preregistered attendees at the convention.
As all registration staff have access to confidential attendee records and responsibility for payments, an applicant's references and experience must recommend this trust. Experience in dealing with the public is also a plus.
All staff members are also required to adhere to the Staff Guidelines.

Cachophony - A word that was born in the basement of a very brave Marine brother of mine. I synonym of jive cachophony has a numerous amount of various different meanings. Mostly it has become a sweeter way to say crazy or ridiculous, although the word ludacris mainly covers that aspect, other meaning can be aplied also. Pretty much what im trying to say is that noone knows what cachophony means or will ever know what it means. Its just a word that is fun to say and has sentimental meaning to a few special people on this earth.
Get yer cachophony out my face gurl. Y u jivin me with that cachophony V. get them busta's out of my cachophony.

Outdoor rated, built to last in harsh weather conditions, seal tight rubber gasket, and holds up to 1,620 - 3/4 letters. Guaranteed.
Our 60W x 36H Outdoor Enclosed Letter Board is better than the competitors because it is outdoor rated and it is safe to use without a protective awning or overhang. The letter board's frame casing is sealed in the back with an aluminum moisture barrier and silicone sealant. The door includes a seal-tight rubber gasket to protect against driving rains and there are vents on each side for humidity to escape. The frame casing also includes an extra channel if you want to add a dry-erase panel. The channel makes the board easily removable and replaceable.
Our competitors use the letter board to hold their frame casing together, thus you cannot replace it without destroying it. Our display case corners are mitered and reinforced with locking brackets. The frame casing is constructed with a natural satin extruded anodized aluminum frame, which is manufactured with alloy 6063-T6, a superior metal for signage because of its strength, hardness and corrosion resistance. Built to last in harsh weather conditions, the casing is heavier than the indoor models and is backed with an aluminum moisture barrier and weather resistant silicone sealant.
Easy to install so that your cabinet sits plum and your doors swing flush. First attach a cleat (provided) to your wall and place the letter board sign cabinet over the cleat. There is a recessed area on the back of our cabinet that will fit tightly onto the cleat. Then attach angle brackets with fasteners to the bottom of the cabinet. Includes mounting hardware (no fasteners).
Two louvered moisture vents are fastened and sealed through the sides of the cabinet. Our competitors only punch open drip holes in the bottom of their casing. Our ventilation holes dissipate the heat; otherwise the cabinet becomes an oven and damages your sign letters and letter board surface. The ventilation holes equalize any temperature differences in the cabinet to prevent window fog up. The vents are capped and screened to prevent insects like spiders and wasps from climbing in the cabinet and building their nests. The vent caps need 1-1/2" to breath and cannot be covered up by side posts or recessed cavities.
The directory board is made from 1/2 inch thick fiberboard with grooves cut on every 1/4 inch increment and covered with vinyl that is pleated into the grooves which slides into the case channel. The letter board holds the standard plastic directory letters with molded tabs. The fiberboard is sealed with an aluminum moisture barrier and silicone sealant.
The door includes solid disc tumbler locks to protect against vandalism while controlling access to posting surface. The locking mechanism is bolted in place. Our competitors use clips. Two keys are included. The door frame holds a durable, 1/8 inch shatter-resistant polycarbonate window with UV inhibitors so messages can be seen but not touched. The window frame sits in a mechanically fastened channel. This makes the window easy to replace if vandalized.
This two door unit is mounted with full-length piano hinges. The case dimensions are 60W x 36H and 2-1/4 inch depth. The main case frame is 1 inch wide and the door frame is 1-7/16 inch. This reduces the visible area to 55W x 31.13H, an optional header further reduces the visible area. The interior space between the door and the cork board is 5/8 inch.
This item comes with a one year manufacturer's guarantee. Added options take an extra 3-5 days lead time to produce.
This item is too large to ship as a parcel, it must go by freight truck. We shop a network of trucking companies to get you the lowest freight rate and best value. Freight rate is provided at checkout.

After Arsenal's 3-1 victory over Partizan Belgrade, we asked fans to share their thoughts on the win via Twitter.
Many of you got in touch and below is a selection of the fans' thoughts.
If you don't already follow us on Twitter and want to have your say, you can find us here: @ArsenalDotCom
@master4gunners - Even Chelsea are beatable at Stamford Bridge if we approach the game with the right spirit, just the way they did last night.
@ka_pitan - Squillaci and Chamakh keep proving the manager right. Fabianski and Djourou were in inspired form. Let's rock London on Saturday!
@Arthur_027 - I think we played really well and I was impressed with Fabianski.
@demlouka - Three hard earned points tonight. We played well and took advantage of the extra man. We took the game to Partizan in second half and scored some great goals!
@zair055 - West Brom was just a bad day. Partizan was the start of a new chapter...
@ggoah - A great team performance, Wilshere's back-heel for the goal... this lad is just supreme!
@shollychei - A good result despite how tricky the game was. I hope the team don't waste chances against Chelsea like we did in the first half.
@AntishaM - Fabianski seems to finally be emerging with confidence. Highlight of the match was his reaction after saving the penalty!
@jim246 - I was impressed with Chamakh again. He has to be the signing of the summer! Wilshere and Arshavin linked up really well.

The antique quilts were all so lovely. I spent a lot of time at the International Quilt Festival in Long Beach, CA admiring the antique quilts they had on display. Many of the fabrics I recognized in the quilts were the same ones my Grandmother used many, many years ago. Your trip makes me want to go hit the local antique shops again!
jlkAugust 17, 2010 at 4:46 pm
I love Needles and Pins. It's so nice there.
DJ RoseAugust 17, 2010 at 6:11 pm
My husband is 30 minutes from Frederick right now. I tried talking him into going but he is at Fire school and doesn't have a car. I doubt he would be able to talk any of the other firefighters into going with him 🙂
KellyAugust 17, 2010 at 6:31 pm
Yay for MD!! I'm from the Southern part (western shore of the Chesapeake) and it's even more humid here! We go through Frederick all of the time, I had no idea this little gem was there, I'll have to check it out sometime!! Glad you had an awesome experience!!

Just checking back here to report that I'm well on the way of making a green/white quilt of my own – totally smitten with the picture from your post here. Thank you for the inspiration, Amy 🙂 Check out my blog to read a bit about the struggles I've been through figuring out how to make it! (I'm not such an experienced quilter…)
jessica griffithMay 7, 2016 at 11:17 pm
Thats my quilt! Imagine scrolling on Pinterest and finding my beloved green and white quilt on your Pin… My husband and I were stationed at Fort Detrick there in Frederick. Our favorite antique store was the Emporium too! When I saw that green and white quilt I just had to have it. It has been a favorite, and kept us warm all these years since!

Movie Review: Safe House
Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds star in the latest shoot 'em up film Safe House.
Director: Daniel Espinosa
MPAA Rating: R
Studio: Relativity Media
Denzel Washington fans may go rushing to the new rogue-CIA-man-on-the-run action thriller Safe House hoping for another Training Day. Ryan Reynolds fans may go rushing to the movie hoping the actor might finally turn up in something watchable. For both actors' diehard fans and adrenalin junkies alike, Safe House delivers 115 minutes of jacked-up sound, fury, a relentless mash-up of car chases, double-crosses, gun play and overblown bone-crunching, all sparked by the pursuit of one hell of a missing microchip encoded with lots of politically incriminating info.
If you're looking for originality, forget it; this one's a can of day-old Red Bull, a big, whopping dose of still-Bourne. Too obviously worshiping at the altar of directors like Paul Greengrass and Tony Scott, the Daniel Espinosa directed, David Guggenheim scripted flick (filmed in intense Shaky-Cam in shades of cool Bourne blue) hinges on a played-out premise. There's an idealistic, ambitious young CIA operative (the too-nice Reynolds, in good form) having to go on the run after a bloody, highly suspicious attack on a South Africa safe house holding for interrogation a badass, incredibly savvy renegade CIA vet (Washington, also good).
This is the kind of movie that wastes skilled actors like Vera Farmiga, Sam Shepard and Brendan Gleeson, in Bourne movie style, snarling lots of CIA chatter and posing before big computer displays while speculating whether Reynolds has also gone rogue. Meanwhile, it becomes painfully obvious that there is an enemy within the CIA ranks. Now a target, our shadowy hero darts all around South Africa trying to ferry Washington to yet another not-so- safe house while bullets fly, bad guys crash over and over into an assortment of getaway vehicles, stunt doubles are sent flying through windows and armies of anonymous villains keep popping up like targets in a shooter video game.
For those looking to check their brains at the door, Safe House provides a succession of blurry pictures to chomp junk food by. If you're up for this sort of thing, it's enjoyably predictable with its professional sheen, grinding relentlessness, head-smacking obvious "surprise" twists and cloak-and-dagger intrigue. Still, the slightly "off" but still effective play between Washington and Reynolds keep the thing moving most of the time, even if it feels like a trailer for one Bourne flick too many.

Fire Chief voices station concerns to city council
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho - The concrete floor in fire station one on Shoupe Avenue is slowly eroding and fire engines can't be housed there anymore.
Fire trucks are parked outside the station with the engines running so they don't freeze.
That's because firefighters worry if they put them in the firehouse the floor will give in and collapse to the basement.
Thursday morning, the department asked the Idaho Falls City Council for help.
"There are major repairs that need to be done to make it livable for the trucks," said Dean Ellis, IF Fire Chief.
The erosion is so bad, only ambulances are allowed in the garage. At night, heavy fire trucks are sent to other stations in the city -- including the ladder truck; one of the key trucks in the fleet.
"It needs to be centrally located downtown," said Ellis. "We've got the high value district here, the tall buildings here, and right now we're having to keep it at fire station 4 which is on Sunnyside and Woodruff."
Ellis expressed his concerns and possible solutions to the city council Thursday.. Filling in the cracks would cost around $200,000 and would be a temporary fix. A new firehouse altogether would come with a price tag of $1-2.5 million.
"We're looking at maybe going to a bond, but there are costs associated with bonding, so the council is looking at other avenues to maybe see if they can get away from those costs," said Ellis.
Building a new firehouse or doing a temporary fix will take a while to get done. In the meantime, the trucks will have to stay outside.
The council made it clear that it's not a matter of if they'll help, but how they'll pay for it.
They'll discuss that in the coming weeks, but they say they've invested a lot of money in the engines and they need a home.
Response time to the downtown area is delayed by about three minutes at night when the engines are kept in other stations.

Hef's Movie Notes: The Graduate
Hef introduces the five-star Mike Nichols comedy The Graduate
Tonight: Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft and Katharine Ross in the five-star Mike Nichols comedy The Graduate.
In a poll conducted by the American Film Institute to choose the 100 Best American films of the 20th century, The Graduate placed seventh—right after The Wizard of Oz and before On the Waterfront.
The Graduate might not deserve that high an honor, but it is one of the most sophisticated, most influential comedies of its time.
The Graduate began as a controversial novel written by Charles Webb and published in October 1963.
A producer named Lawrence Turman acquired the screen rights with a $1,000 option the following January. Two months later, the Berlin-born comedian-turned-director Mike Nichols was assigned to direct what was then considered a small, relatively unpretentious comedy.
Nichols came to New York from the Chicago Compass Players—an off-campus improvisational comedy troupe that later became Second City.
Nichols, with his partner Elaine May, were a huge hit with their wit and satire in the late '50s, and An Evening with Mike & Elaine was a smash on Broadway in 1960.
In 1963, Nichols made his directorial debut on Broadway with Barefoot in the Park. He was soon known as a director's director, with a Midas Touch because every play he subsequently directed (The Odd Couple, Luv, etc.) was a critical and commercial success.
He directed his first film, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, with Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor in 1966.
The Graduate was his second film, and it took some time to both develop the screenplay and find a suitable cast.
William Hanley wrote the first draft. And in February 1965, no less than Calder Willingham (Paths of Glory and The Bridge on the River Kwai) was retained to do a rewrite.
Then, in June 1966, our own Buck Henry wrote the final adaptation, while working on the Don Adams television series, Get Smart, which he had conceived with Mel Brooks.
For the casting, Nichols first wanted Doris Day to play Mrs. Robinson. She declined. He offered the part to Patricia Neal, and she declined as well. Nichols considered Ava Gardner, but didn't send her the script.
In January 1967, the wife of Mel Brooks, Anne Bancroft, already an Oscar-winner for The Miracle Worker, was signed to portray Mrs. Robinson. She would later reflect, "I thought it was the best, most wonderful script I had ever read because, for the first time, a script was making fun of sex."
An unknown actress, Katharine Ross, who had a small part in The Singing Nun (1966), was cast in the role of Elaine, Bancroft's daughter. She would later make Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid with Newman and Redford (1969) and the original Stepford Wives in 1975.
Casting the part of Benjamin, "the graduate," proved to be a special problem. Nichols was seeking an unconventional actor. "It's the hardest thing I ever tried to cast," he said at the time. "These people—Mrs. Robinson, Elaine and Benjamin—are so removed from stock characters."
Short in stature and less than attractive in appearance, the unknown actor, Dustin Hoffman, was astonished when he was asked to read for the role. "I'd never asked a girl in acting class to do a love scene," he recalled later. "And no girl ever asked me either."
"Looking at Katharine Ross that day," Hoffman reasoned, "A girl like that would never go for a guy like me in a million years."
And Katharine Ross agreed. This was her first impression of Dustin Hoffman: "He looks about three-feet tall, so dead serious, so humorless, so unkempt. I thought, this is going to be a disaster."
The screen test was a disaster!
But Hoffman's anguish, his insecurity in the part, was just what Nichols was looking for in the role.
Robert Redford was one of the other eight actors who read for the part the same day as Hoffman.
Ross preferred Redford, of course, and she got him later in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. But he was obviously wrong for The Graduate. "What I said to Redford," Nichols later recalled, "was that he could not, at this point in his career, play a loser, because no one would buy it."
"He didn't understand, and I said, 'Well, let me put it to you another way: Have you ever struck out with a girl?'
"And he said, 'What do you mean?' That made my point."
So Hoffman got the part.
He received $750 a week for the role—and applied for Unemployment Benefits as soon as the film was finished on August 5, 1967.
The production on The Graduate was a relatively modest $3 million. It boasted no major stars. And there was no major studio publicity planned for the picture's release.
The initial critical response was mixed. But Variety called The Graduate, "A delightful, satirical comedy drama about a young man's seduction by an older woman, and the measure of maturity he gains from the experience."
In reality, at the time of the filming, Katharine Ross was 25. Dustin Hoffman was 30, and Anne Bancroft was not yet 36.
Variety predicted "strong box office prospects," but they failed to mention the Simon & Garfunkel soundtrack that dominated the airwaves that summer of 1967.
High school and college students flocked to see the movie.
The film was a smash at the box office—earning a worldwide gross of $44.5 million.
To put that in proper perspective, The Graduate became the third highest grossing film in history—surpassed only by Gone with the Wind and The Sound of Music.
The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Actor (Hoffman), Best Actress (Bancroft), Best Supporting Actress (Ross), Best Screenplay (Willingham and Henry) among them.
Nichols took home the Oscar for Best Director.
The film made overnight stars of both Hoffman and Ross. And it established Nichols as one of the most sought after directors in Hollywood.
Much has been made of the enigmatic ending of the film. Nichols—and he should know—has offered this interpretation: "I think Ben and Elaine will end up exactly like their parents. That's what I was trying to say in that last scene."
But audiences found something else in the film. Bancroft once observed: "Maybe the two kids really do love each other, except I think that shot at the end when they're sitting in the bus (leaves you wondering.) I think everything they did was out of rebellion. I honestly don't know if they loved each other."
But in 1967, audiences responded to the defiance, the wonderful rebellion of alienated youth against a generation steeped in materialism.
They saw themselves as Ben and Elaine rejecting the past and seeking happiness on their own terms. So let's return again to that remarkable decade, to 1967, and to The Graduate.

Deciding the Future of America
The debates are over, the agendas are set and the final stretch to the 2012 Presidential Election is underway. We break down the debates and the issues you need to know to make the right choice.
Culminating in last night's foreign policy debate at Lynn University in Boca Raton, the candidates' performance in the four debates has ranged from a lackluster Obama (stalling in the domestic component on October 3rd in Denver) to an increasingly impudent Romney (whose responses repeatedly ballooned into media frenzy).
While certain political gaffes and retorts will be remembered by the general populace —"Big Bird," "horses and bayonets" and the now-classic "binders full of women"—each of these viral terms have captured the most politically engaged audience members on Twitter. In fact, the three 90-minute debates combined saw approximately 24 million tweets, which nearly blots out the numbers from 2008 when Twitter was new, when Obama had only 112,000 followers compared to his current 21.3 million.
With decision day not two weeks away and the Dem-GOP vote share tied at 47 percent, we've recapped the most important platforms of this election, presented in context with the respective candidates' debate proclamations, for you, the voters, to judge the field and make an informed decision.
[Editor's note: While the campaign issues below present an essential view into the electoral platforms of the candidates, this article serves solely to illustrate the most pertinent arguments, promises, and statements in the context of the three Presidential debates and omits peripheral election platforms, issues and discourse that have been presented outside this context in the wider campaign.]
Federal Deficit: A balanced reduction of the deficit will allow the government to invest in critical areas such as infrastructure, job creation and helping to rebuild America: "I've put forward a specific $4 trillion deficit-reduction plan…The way we do it is $2.50 for every cut, we ask for a dollar of additional revenue, paid for, as I indicated earlier, by asking those of us who have done very well in this country to contribute a little bit more to reduce the deficit." Energy: While America needs to control its own oil and gas energy sources and develop additional production, it's important for the U.S. to invest in the energy sources of the future. Taxes: The tax code needs to be changed to help small businesses invest in the United States. Overall, the corporate tax rate should be reduced to 25 percent. Job Creation: Under Obama, the U.S. has seen 30 continuous months of added private sector jobs. Will focus on building manufacturing jobs within the U.S. Immigrants: The U.S. needs to fix a broken immigration system, making it easier and less expensive for immigrants to contribute to American society. Additional border patrol for illegal crossings has been effective with the lowest numbers in 40 years. The DREAM act provided for pathways administratively, and resources should be better spent on criminals, not students or those trying to make an effort.
Federal Deficit: New economic plan of cutting costs and closing loopholes could result in a balanced budget within 8 to 10 years. Taxes: Provide tax relief for the middle class but not those with high incomes. Lower taxes for businesses, but to keep revenue steady, lower deductions, credits and exemptions to account for growth. Energy: Oil and gas production is higher now but has occurred on private, not public, land. Permits on homeowners' land would be doubled, and additional oil would come from offshore, Alaska and the Keystone XL pipeline from Canada. The U.S. needs to be energy independent. Job Creation: Believes Obama's efforts to combat the country's 8.1 percent unemployment rate have been unsuccessful; Romney's five-point plan would aim to create 12 million new jobs in four years. Auto Industry: Believes that Obama's support for electric carmakers was not "investing" in research; the money could have been better spent on universities and think-tanks. Romney would have liquidated Detroit in 2009. Immigrants: Legal system should be streamlined so that qualified, skilled immigrants can come to the U.S. and work without hiring a lawyer. The children of those who came to America illegally should have pathways available to becoming a permanent resident, for example, joining the military.
[Editor's Note: Obama's Health Platform is primarily the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (i.e. Obamacare) which was signed into law March 23, 2010]
"The essence of [Romney's] plan is that he would turn Medicare into a voucher program." Vouchers wouldn't keep up with health-care inflation; it's estimated this would cost the average senior about $6,000 each year. Traditional Medicare would continue but would eventually collapse as the insurance companies cover the younger citizens, leaving more expensive individuals in Medicare.
Health premiums that will currently rise $2,500 per family when [Obamacare] is fully implemented will be reversed. Health care will be the responsibility of each state to craft its own insurance programs, and this will restore $716 billion to Medicare and cover the four million individuals set to lose the Medicare advantage.
Investing in education is vital to long-term competitiveness for the country and attracting firms to set up in the U.S. with a trained, highly skilled American workforce. Ensure community colleges are offering opportunities for workers to be retrained for the current market.
To allow students to attend college, 1) continue the Pell Grant program to provide adequate scholarships and 2) continue to fund student loans already available at the federal level.
Women in the workplace: The Lilly Ledbetter bill, the first bill Obama signed in office, resulted in policy for gender pay-equity in the workplace. Advocacy such as this is needed as women increasingly become the top income earners in the household. "This is not just a women's issue; it's a family issue." Contraceptives: Under the new health-care bill, insurance providers will be required to provide contraceptive coverage to all who are insured. "…this is not just a—a health issue; it's an economic issue for women. It makes a difference. This is money out of that family's pocket."
Women in the workplace: If women are going to be in the workplace, employers need to be more flexible, such as with schedules, to allow for family obligations. Food Stamps: "…when the president took office, 32 million people [were] on food stamps; 47 million [are] on food stamps today. Economic growth this year [is] slower than last year, and last year [is] slower than the year before. Going forward with the status quo is not going to cut it for the American people who are struggling today."
The country needs to enforce current laws and make sure guns are being kept out of the hands of criminals. Will consider reintroducing an assault weapons ban to curb violent massacres such as Aurora. Looks to a comprehensive strategy that would reduce irresponsible gun owners and develop proactive approaches in communities to deter violent attacks.
Not in favor of any new legislation, including gun or model limitation of any sort. Believes America's greatest failure with gun violence is due to the "Operation Fast and Furious" weapons dissemination plan. [A "gunwalking" sting conducted by the ATF between 2006 and 2011 to stem the flow of firearms into Mexico by selling guns legally to middlemen in order to track down cartel leaders.]
Syria: The U.S. and its allies must exert pressure on China and Russia to come to a compromise to effect a resolution. Iran: Has not set a "red line," but the U.S. cannot afford to have a nuclear arms race in the world's most volatile region. Afghanistan: Maintains commitment to reducing numbers and bringing troops home. Military Spending: The U.S. must reduce as America has a higher military budget than the next 10 countries combined. This can be used to rebuild America.
Syria: Refuses all U.S. military intervention within the country. China: "…companies have shut down and people have lost their jobs because China has not played by the same rules, in part by holding down artificially the value of their currency. It holds down the prices of their goods. It means our goods aren't as competitive and we lose jobs. That's got to end." Israel: There is a red line when it comes to Israel's security in the Middle East. Iran: The route to blocking a nuclear Iran is through diplomatic isolation to avoid military action. Afghanistan: Agreed with Obama that U.S. forces must withdraw from the country in 2014, and maintains that all handover plans are progressing appropriately. Military Spending: Would focus on increasing the size and capabilities of the U.S. Navy, and would not reduce the military budget.
Check back November 3rd for our state-by-state analysis of the election platforms.

Mathematics disorder is a condition in which a child's math ability is far below normal for their age, intelligence, and education.
Developmental dyscalculia
Children who have mathematics disorder have trouble with simple mathematical equations, such as counting and adding.
Mathematical disorder may appear with:
The child may have trouble with math, as well as low scores in math classes and on tests.
Problems the child may have include:
Standardized tests can assess the child's math ability. Grades and class performance can also help.
The best treatment is remedial education. Other programs that have been successful include Project Math and computer skills.
Early intervention improves the chances of a better outcome.
The child may have problems in school, including behavior problems and loss of self-esteem. Some children with mathematics disorder become anxious or afraid when given math problems, making the problem even worse.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you have any concerns about your child's development.
Recognizing the problem early is important. Treatment may begin as early as kindergarten or elementary school.

McDaniel-Tichenor House
Monroe, GA 30655
On 7 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds in Monroe, stands the historic home of Governor Henry Dickerson McDaniel. Built in 1887, it remained in the family for three generations. The McDaniel-Tichenor families significantly contributed to the social and economic growth of the area.
McDaniel was a Confederate Civil War veteran, who was wounded in battle, captured by Union forces, imprisoned and later paroled. After the war, he built a reputation as a lawyer and businessman. Later, he became known as Georgia's steady-handed governor during the peaceful period between Reconstruction and the turbulent Populist movement at the end of the 19th century.
After serving his state, Governor McDaniel retired to his law practice in Monroe and became the town's wealthiest resident through shrewd investment in railroads and local cotton mills. He also served as a trustee for the University of Georgia for 38 years before his death in 1926.

Blue MountainView in iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
Blue Mountain is led by the husband and wife team of Cary Hudson and Laurie Stirratt; the roots rockers drew their name from a small town near their home base of Oxford, MS, where the bandmembers first began soaking up the country, blues, and rock influences that informed their distinctive sound. Blue Mountain was founded in 1993 by vocalist/guitarist Hudson and bassist Stirratt after their previous band, the Los Angeles-based, punk-inspired Hilltops (which also included Stirratt's twin brother, John, who would go on to join the band Wilco), dissolved following the release of a lone LP, Big Black River. Returning to Mississippi, the couple hooked up with drummer Matt Brennan and began writing and performing live. After a self-titled album -- recorded for about $1,000 -- issued on the band's own label, 4-Barrel Records, Blue Mountain was signed to indie label Roadrunner, and in 1995 released Dog Days, an album cut mostly live in the studio with new drummer Frank Coutch and producer Eric "Roscoe" Ambel. Reprising a number of songs from the first release, Dog Days ran the gamut of the group's influences, incorporating everything from country hoedowns to gentle acoustic numbers to a cover of the Skip James jam "Special Rider Blues." In 1997, Blue Mountain returned with the superb Homegrown; Tales of a Traveler followed two years later and Roots was issued in early 2001. Celebrating ten years together, the band released the live retrospective Tonight It's Now or Never in 2002.~ Jason Ankeny

Sizzle and a 3rd WR
My friends and fellow Raven fans, calm down. The reason for depth signings is to fill in for starters who are out of the rotation. Terrell Suggs, is a force. Not having him WILL impact our team but his absence WILL NOT BREAK US. Ozzie Newsome values his draft picks and has a salary cap that he has to work with; big name trades, for starting caliber players, will require cutting some good players and giving up CONSIDERABLE draft picks next year. Those are not things that Ozzie is likely to do, ESPECIALLY for a ONE YEAR problem. Kruger CAN START, Upshaw will be groomed as a starter ANYWAY. We have guys that were brought in because they can contribute, there aren't any "scrubs" on this team. Even though 55 won't be lining up, we still have young lions ready and willing to step their game up and make an impact. Tandon Doss, LaQuan Williams, David Reed and now, Tommy Streeter, could end up as our 3, 4 and 5 WRs. If so, we'll be ok. Vincent Jackson wasn't drafted high, neither was Wes Welker; they got their chances and MADE THE MOST OF THEM. A lot of us know the mantra, "In Ozzie We Trust"; the trust will be tested this year, more than usually. Monday, September 10, 2012, John Harbaugh will take the field with his Ravens, whatever the lineup is. Just relax for now, trust the FO and get ready for another season at M&T!

MORRISSEY, it's reported, is planning to publish his memoirs and set the record straight on his lifetime of scandalous headlines. "So much crap is written about me," he told a BBC interviewer (no doubt referring to this writer), "it's hard to live with sometimes." Soon after this announcement, Brad Pitt and Frances McDormand stole an unfinished copy and tried to sell it to the dude from JAMES.
Famously cagy about his sexuality, Mooze continued the interview with some praise for his new album, which I prefer to read as a veiled comment on his male anatomy: "It's fantastically strong. It's very, very strong, and it's interesting for me after all these years, but it's the strongest." That's what he or she said!
And if you're wondering what happened to Years of Refusal, which was supposed to come out this month: it's been bumped back to March 1, 2009. No! By then, we will have spent our last $16 on the new NICKELBACK album!
MICHAEL JACKSON raised eyebrows this month by moving into a new Las Vegas pad that just happens to be right across the street from an elementary school. Since the King of Pop has been acquitted in the whole childy-touchy affair, I don't think it's legal to make jokes about him being a slavering pedophile skeleton, so you're just going to have to use your imagination. But don't use your imagination too much, you sick bastard.
In other Vegas news, DONNY AND MARIE OSMOND have extended their contract as the headlining act at the fabulous Flamingo. If you have any wee inclination to give a shit about this news, I'm kind of surprised you made it this far into the column, because, wow, you're really not the demographic I'm going for.
I know I made fun of KID ROCK only a few weeks ago, but I just have to swoop in for another pass. Please take a moment to enjoy this press-release headline: "VH1 Storytellers: Kid Rock." Really, just swish that one around a little and savor the bouquet.
And speaking of press releases: once in a while one comes along that's such a perfect little piece of art that I want to reprint it in its entirety, particularly because I'd be getting paid for clicking "COPY" and "PASTE." But I think my editors would get wise to that [EDITOR'S NOTE: "Indeed we would"], so I'm going to have to whittle the majesty of this thing down by a few hundred words.

|In the Crosshairs
Dropping In... is a mission in the downloadable content for Grand Theft Auto IV, The Ballad of Gay Tony.
Ray Bulgarin orders Luis to work with with his henchman, Timur. Marki Ashvilli won't sell him the Liberty City Rampage hockey team, (probably because of what happened in the previous mission) so he plans on murdering him to send a message. He sends Luis to the MeTV building in Algonquin, but since it would be impossible to enter from the ground, wants him to parachute onto the building to silently infiltrate it.
Get into the car and wait for Timur. Now drive to the Higgins Helitours site in Algonquin. Steal a chopper, and climb through the pink rings to gain altitude over the city. Once you're high enough, jump and pull the chute to glide onto the building. Once you're inside, you must fight through the floors of the building through the stairs and eliminate the security goons. When you reach the main floors and kill the enemies behind the desk, a fire will start, causing the alarm rings and fire sprinkler system to activated. Kill all of Ashvilli's guards in the conference room. When Ashvilli is finally alone, shoot him to send him flying from the window, onto the ground to his death.
Now jump from the broken window as more enemies appear behind you. Timur will be driving a truck, and you must land on it to safely end the mission. If you miss the truck, Timur will leave you behind and two enemy cars will come after you. Kill them and the mission will end.

- The beacon on top of the MeTV building may be hard to see after jumping out of the chopper. However, it is the only building in the vicinity with an obviously visible helipad. Do not wait too long to deploy the parachute, otherwise there won't be enough lift to reach the top of the building.
- After having killed Ashvilli, be sure to jump out of the building, deploying Luis's parachute. If the player heads for the elevator instead Luis will be stuck in a small corridor with endlessly respawning enemies. The action of jumping out the window triggers Timur's truck, so don't wait for him as Luis will be continually shot at from the corridors.
- If you shoot a barrel down the elevator shaft at the beginning, you can lure out two guards that can be picked off. Otherwise, you'll have to deal with them when you go down to the lower floor.
- Grenades are very effective in this mission (sticky bombs less so). Good places to use them include tossing them down the aforementioned elevator shaft after knocking a barrel in, in the staircase, and in Ashvilli's reception area. Meanwhile, explosive shotgun rounds can be used to blow open doors and nail thugs hiding behind them.
- When Luis jumps out of the helicopter to land on the building, it will spin down to the ground with Timur inside, even though this doesn't fail the mission.
- This is one of the only times Luis keeps his parachute on after using it (initially to land on the building), which telegraphs to the player that it'll be needed again to escape.
- If you're tired of getting the "silent treatment" from Timur on the drive over, make the car flip or crash it (though be careful not to render the car undriveable). That will often elicit a funny response from Timur.

Q. As a young man, I remember my grandfather saying he was a White Russian. I've heard a few references to White Russia, but nothing that explains what it means. Can you help?
A. Most folks might associate the term White Russian with the popular cocktail made from Kahlua liqueur, vodka and milk. But for Eastern European genealogists, this moniker has its origins in the country known as Belarus, formerly Byelorussia or White Russia.

University's Psychology and the Other Institute welcomes Michelle Alexander to Brattle Campus.
Tuesday, December 10, 2013
The figures are even bleaker for African Americans, who comprise nearly half of the nation's jail and prison population of 2.3 million, according to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. And this occurs within a supposed "colorblind" society, said author Michelle Alexander, who spoke to more than 500 people Friday night in Washburn Hall on Lesley's Brattle Campus.
"We've got to awaken from this colorblind slumber," said Alexander, whose New York Times best-selling book
"The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness" questions whether our nation has truly "triumphed over race" with the election and re-election of President Barack Obama. She decried the sudden and dramatic mass incarceration of African-American men, primarily through the "war on drugs," which, though declared by President Ronald Reagan in 1982, "when drug crime was actually on the decline," has been prosecuted by presidents of both parties since that time, with efforts targeting the inner cities and especially people of color.
Starting in the Reagan era, and coinciding with the emergence of crack cocaine, White House staff began a propaganda campaign built around images of "crack babies" and inner-city adults in the thrall of the drug.
"As our conception of drug use became darker and darker, blacker and blacker," Alexander said, the nation became more punitive and undertook the sort of law enforcement activities, like "stop-and-frisk," aimed almost exclusively at citizens of color. The majority of Americans violate drug laws at some point in their life — whether it's experimenting with marijuana, cocaine or "club drugs," or getting behind the wheel after having had too much to drink — but the battleground for the war on drugs is poor, minority residential areas, she indicated.
"These kind of tactics are restricted to the 'hood," she said, even though drugs themselves move freely through all societal and financial strata.
The result, she added, is a system of "mass incarceration that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. could never have dreamed of, and would never have wanted to dream of."
Perpetuating the situation is the "direct monetary interest … in the longevity of this 'war,'" Alexander added. She pointed to the siting of prisons in poor, rural areas and advertising them as jobs programs, and the increased privatization of the corrections system, with some prison industries being publicly traded on Wall Street.
And the money keeps flowing once someone is released from prison (though 75 percent of convicts land back in prison within three years of their release). More and more, convicts are being charged for costs related to their incarceration, and people on probation typically are on the hook for monthly "monitoring fees," even though finding work after jail is a Herculean labor.
But economics are only part of the equation. Alexander said our own attitudes toward people who have been locked up — even for nonviolent offenses — "would need a social upheaval to reverse" the relegation of those who are, or have been, in jail to what she terms a racial under-caste.
"The 'Whites Only' signs are gone," she said, but they've been replaced by a correctional industrial complex, and recent laws legally disenfranchising black and brown citizens from the vote, that "are doing what Jim Crow laws never could."
What's needed, she said, is a practice of "viewing criminals no longer as one of 'them,' one of 'the others,' but as one of 'us.'"
"All of us are criminals in one (fashion) or another," she said, adding that, at a minimum, society needs an "Underground Railroad" for those who get out of prison, helping them obtain employment, education, housing and, if necessary, government assistance.
"We've got to be willing to work for abolition of this system of mass incarceration."
In his introduction, Lesley University Provost Selase Williams called Alexander an "inspiration to many of us (who read) her books," and applauded her for "challenging the conventional wisdom" on race and the prison system.
Dr. David Goodman, director of the Psychology and the Other Institute, which presented the lecture, added that Alexander "reminds us of the complex ways that we are implicated in the suffering of others, and she illustrates this through haunting statistics, narratives and social realities of which many of us are unaware.""Lesley University was honored to host this luminary and prophetic voice," Goodman said.
Michelle Alexander previously worked as a civil rights lawyer and advocate in both the private and non-profit sector. For several years, she served as the Director of the Racial Justice Project for the ACLU of Northern California, where she helped to lead a national campaign against racial profiling by law enforcement. While an associate at Saperstein, Goldstein, Demchak & Baller, she specialized in plaintiff-side class action lawsuits alleging race and gender discrimination. Alexander is a civil rights lawyer, advocate, and professor at Ohio State University. She was previously an associate professor of law at Stanford Law School, where she directed the Civil Rights Clinics.
Lesley's Psychology and the Other Institute, which facilitates interdisciplinary conversation between psychology, theology/religious studies and philosophy, presented the lecture along with the Lesley University Office of the Provost, Lesley's Graduate School of Arts and Social Sciences, and the Lesley Diversity Council. The Emmanuel Levinas Lecture Series takes place two to three times per year and features a scholar/activist who represents a pressing need in the world and speaks to an issue of significant ethical importance. Levinas was a Lithuanian philosopher who was concerned about the failing moral systems in Western society. This lecture series is intended to highlight important contemporary issues that pertain to human responsibility and ethics.

Did you have to have any teeth extracted for fitting the braces? I would avoid spicy foods or gritty foods( things that have small hard pieces) if so.
Yes actually I got one removed. One on the side, that was completely out of the way...

How are you doing Sergio? Hope you heal quickly and are not suffering!
cold soups like gazpacho and salmorego
pureed black bean soup
pureed yellow split peas (Greek style, which is used as a dip, maybe with some softened bread . . .) although I think this is a lot of labor to make . . .
yogurt and milk with what you like - fruits, peanut butter . . . if you need something cold.

Re: Big help please!
Hi Sergio, how are things going, its a long slow process I know. My daughter had hers fitted about 8 months ago, then had the wire change last month so it was back to the start for a few days. I assume you have the brackets with wires round ??, if so be careful biting into things like apples or even a crusty roll, cut into pieces this helps.
As for food well here are some of her fav

There is all the normal like shepherds pie - try adding veg to the mash, swede carrots etc, beef stew with soft dumplings, eggs - poached, omlette etc. poached fish in parsley sauce with mash and she can always manage peas !!!.

Ok, so I've basically come up w/ the conclusion that I'll MOST likely get a 300ZX, yet still in debate which I should get. I was first mainly looking at the 1990 300ZX Turbo, yet realized that it's QUITE a spike as far as the price goes, and I can always end up adding a turbocharger for much cheaper. I've also heard that the turbos have rear-wheel steering. Is that true? Or if it DOES have rear wheel steering, is it really that noticable or worth it? Or what other special features does the twin turbo have over the original, besides the twin turbo and the added 80hp? I don't want the 2+2.. because extra seating isn't that important to me. Any advice on this situation? I saw the previos thread about this, but still am wondering about teh features. Thanks
Just get the standard GS Coupe. I love Z32 300ZX's, those are great cars. Maybe not the most reliable or cheap to own, but great nevertheless.BobbyT owns one, he can give you some tips, too.
____________________Because it totally worked when Lincoln did it.
The Super HICAS 4WS isn't worth the expense of repair. My recommendation is to find a non-turbo model, preferably one that was not driven hard for the past decade and a half. If, however, you find a nice example of a Twin Turbo then snap it up after having a trustworthy mechanic give it a thorough physical. You won't be disappointed with either version of the car.
Ok here's your 300 lesson.1984-1989 was the (different body style) Z31 300zx.1990-1996 (though there are some 1989s and Japan had them through 1999) was the Z32 300zx.The current 350z is the Z33.The Z32 TT has 300 hp, weighs around 3500-3600 lbs, comes with Super-HICAS (the rear wheels turn up to a degree), is available auto or manual, and in this country all have T-tops. The other major feature it has is the automatic suspension...there's a switch on the center console that stiffens or slackens the shocks (sport/comfort). ALL TTs in this country are 2+0.The NA has 222 hp, weighs 3150-3300 lbs, has no HICAS, is available auto or manual, and can be had with T-tops, convertible, or (rarest & lightest) slicktop. NAs can be 2+0 or 2+2.The gas door is in front of the rear axle in 2+0s, and in 2+2s moves behind the driver's side rear tire.There are a handful of TT 2+2s running around that people have swapped. That, however, makes for one heavy car. TT swap into a slicktop or T-top is pretty sweet because you have power & lightness.You're not going to "add a turbocharger", and you certainly aren't for cheap. Even if you did have the knowledge, you still wouldn't do it because it's much less feasible than the alternatives.There are 2 throttle bodies, one for each bank, because the engine is set up for TTs. It is possible to do some custom piping and a custom bracket to throw a Procharger supercharger into an NA where the AC pump is, but I've only heard of a couple doing this.The NA is a high compression engine...10.5:1 compared to the TT's 8.5. You could in theory throw the stock turbos on and run low boost, but you'd probably be unimpressed by the gains compared to properly turboed engines, turn the boost up, and need yourself a rebuild. On top of this, you have to figure out how to fit all the supporting systems into the very crowded engine bay (oil lines, intercooling, etc).An eaiser method is to simply buy a used stock TT engine out of a totalled car (or a JDM since their crazy regulations make them throw stuff out every few years) so you'd have the correct compression and supporting systems, but you still need to do a lot of prep to get your car ready for it.I'd love to do a TT swap, but the Z specialty swaps charge 6-7k to do it. That's the price of an all-right condition NA...so as has been said many times, the easiest way to do a TT swap is to sell your NA and buy a TT.Make the decision and stick to it...a TT will be more in maintenance, etc but also has tons of potential. If you buy a TT you need to do your reading and maintain everything before you touch mods, whereas with a NA you can jump in a bit sooner. My NA is pretty much topped out short of nitrous, and I'm not quite to stock TT acceleration.Given your level of experience & knowledge, you're probably better off getting an NA 5-speed, having a blast and learning to drive the thing (it's no monster but definitely quick and turnable), and make all the mistakes on it so you can upgrade to something faster in a few years and not destroy it.

Do you like the 80's model 300zx? I'd get one of those personally. I like the looks more.As far as turbocharging a 90's 300zx that isn't, not sure how reliable that would be, and how costly that would be.If you want that extra grunt get a 80's model. IIRC get a 84~86.5. They make the same power as the 90's NA 3.0L motors but they have stock a turbo that makes efficient/safe power up to like 15psi. ~7psi is stock. Plus there is also no intercooler.The 87~89 models make 5hp more, but they use a smaller turbo that pushes < 5psi stock with higher engine compression, thus the earlier models are slightly more desired. Granted, only 200hp is stock, but get that thing tuned, exhaust/intake, push 15psi, and add an intercooler it will make some solid power. If you want more just swap out the turbo. I wouldn't be surprised to find an early 80's turbo model + modifications = cheaper than a 90's 300zx turbo.Then just grab a rear diff from the 87-89 Turbo models as they are LSD.

Viet Nam, Russia work together on new technologies
Illustrative image (Source: VNA)
This is the main reason for the visit from the Russian Federations parliamentary delegation, from April 2-6.
At the event, both delegations discussed the development of Vietnamese-Russian relations in the science and technology sectors as well as measures to boost cooperation between the parliaments of both countries.
Valery Aleksandrovich Chereshnev, Chairman of the State Duma Committee for Science and Advanced Technologies, said that the Duma, or parliament, has adopted two bills on nuclear energy and advanced technologies, opening up many opportunities for both countries to work closer together in the future.
Russia confirmed it will continue its support for Viet Nam in training specialists at universities in Russia , he said.
Dang Vu Minh, Chairman of the National Assembly's Committee for Science, Technology and Environment, said he hopes that Russia will expand its working relationship with Viet Nam in areas such as the transfer of technologies, providing specialist training to scientists and technicians and exchanging information.
Apart from cooperating more in science and technology, Viet Nam and Russia have enjoyed a boom in economic cooperation, mainly in energy, but also in telecommunications, transport and the oil and gas industry.
Russia has also made efforts to increase investment in Viet Nam 's industries.
Both delegations plan to step up moves to fully tap into each other's potential and strengths in research and the application of modern technologies.

Pulaski Tech's Chapter of Arkansas Association of Women in Two-Year Colleges treated half a dozen girls to a morning of food and festivities Saturday during the organization's annual Big for a Day celebration.
