Use fresh, young asparagus here or the soup will lack flavor and require straining. Fennel lends a creamy texture and a subtle anise flavor to the soup.
Servings: 4 - 6
- 4 tablespoons olive or canola oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, halved and thinly sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black or white pepper to taste
- 1 small fennel bulb, trimmed, halved, cored and thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 3/4 pounds fresh asparagus, ends trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 4 cups chicken stock or broth
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped dill, plus additional for garnish
- Crème fraîche, sour cream or whipped cream (optional garnish)
In a large saucepan or pot over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the onion, a pinch of salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the fennel and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute. Add the asparagus and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green, about 2 minutes. Add the stock, increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the lemon juice, dill and salt and pepper to taste and stir to combine. Set aside to cool for at least 10 minutes. (May cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
Transfer the soup to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth, processing in batches if necessary. Return the soup to the pan, place over low heat and heat just until warmed through. Do not boil. Taste and adjust the seasoning accordingly.
To serve, ladle the soup into individual bowls. If desired, add a dollop of cream and a sprig of dill to each bowl.

A woman has died and a man is seriously ill in hospital following a shooting in south Wales, Gwent police say.
Armed officers arrived in Willenhall Street, Newport, at 8.45am on Thursday following reports of gunshots.
A police spokesman said a man and a woman were found at the scene and taken to the Royal Gwent hospital with serious injuries.
The woman, who was 46, later died in hospital. The man, who is 49, remains in surgery.
The spokesman added: "It is not believed anyone else is involved in the incident and both of those involved were known to each other."
Officers recovered a gun from the scene and police are trying to contact family members.
Willenhall Street remains cordoned off as officers carry out inquiries.
Local residents have spoken of their shock at the incident on a quiet residential street.
Councillor Majid Rahman, 25, who represents the Victoria ward, said some residents had gone to help after the shooting.
Rahman said: "Some of the residents went up to the people to see if they were OK and to see if they could help. Others saw them through their home windows.
"Everyone in the area is shocked and saddened by what has happened. Residents have told me that they had seen the people around the area before.
"I don't know who they are or where they lived, there doesn't seem to be a lot of information at the moment."
Rahman described Willenhall Street as a quiet, residential "new-build area".
He added: "There are no real crime issues in the area, apart from some minor antisocial behaviour. Nothing like this has ever happened round here before."
Forensic police officers are at the scene.

Beautiful inside and out. Amazing breakfast each morning. Home is very welcoming, roomy and cozy. Friendly hosts that are full of information. We are so glad that we decided to stay at Ida-Home.

We thoroughly enjoyed the comfort and inviting atmosphere of Ida Home. The large bedroom had a nice sitting area in front of the fireplace and a large walk out deck. Sooo comfy. It was a very peaceful setting with birds foraging for food beyond the breakfast room windows, and Al's stories of wildlife seen on the surrounding property made it all the more enjoyable. Maureen and Al's time spent telling us about the beautiful northern Idaho communities and country was time we will always be grateful for. We hope to return!

This was mine and my husband's first time in a bed and breakfast and it was amazing. We wished we could have stayed longer. My husband has Celiac's disease and Maureen (and Al) were able to accommodate his gluten-free needs with the most delicious breakfast! We are hooked and can't wait to stay again when in the area! Thanks Al and Maureen!

+J.M.J.+ We are so happy to have found this special hidden treasure tucked away near beautiful Coeur d'Alene and Post Falls, Idaho, thus the name Ida-Home! We regret not discovering it sooner while our daughter was in school there, but are already telling others about it and would love to stay there again if and when we are back in the area! Maureen and Al were so kind and accommodating. We felt like we had found long lost friends! They are fabulous cooks and wonderful gardeners! The breakfasts were delicious and served on our schedule, even when ours changed at the last minute one of the days! The grounds were beautiful and everything inside and out was impeccable! It was quiet, tranquil, and serene at the end of the street where the lovely home sits. We even saw turkeys in the woods one morning during breakfast! If you don't like to potentially share the bath with other guests, it is worth the upgrade to have it private, though we never crossed other guests in our three days there. The decor was beautiful and the sheets were so soft and comfy, we ordered a couple of sets from the innkeepers to use at home. The chocolates, nuts, drinks, robes, and slippers were extra amenities that we enjoyed as well. We hope and pray Maureen and Al are truly blessed, as we were any them and their lovely Ida-Home!

Stayed a week with Al and Maureen, what a lovely place to relax and enjoy the area - first rate in every way. Quiet, comfortable, excellent meals all, and of course a warm welcoming feel from the gracious owners. I would recommend Idahome to anyone, and already have! Definitely going back.

We have never stayed at a B&B and this place made us want to stay at B&B's from now on. It was relaxing and easy going. They provided us with a lot of information about the surrounding area. We only stayed 2 nights. It wasn't long enough. The breakfast was amazing! We plan to go back and bring more family with us.

This past Veterans Day, Ida-Home B & B opened their beautiful home to Veterans from all over the northwest. Our stay was filled with kindness, understanding and congeniality in a beautiful setting and in addition the food was superb in both taste and presentation. My wife and I spent a romantic night in the spacious Heritage Room; it had the greatest bed - no kidding. You feel like you're going to just melt away into nothingness, gradually slipping into a sound peaceful sleep with not a care in the world. In the morning, you can awaken with the sun peeking thru the huge windows; that surround the bed on three sides. Both beer and wine were provided in our room, in a separate cooler for our enjoyment, with more available. Our private patio door opened onto the wood deck with views of the surrounding pine forest. At night there were inspiring views of brightly shining stars; perfect for a night of romantic star gazing. What a pleasure it was to have no road noise - just peace and quiet; that was simply wonderful!!! To say that we were pampered is an understatement. Our hosts Maureen and Al went out of their way to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. They were at our beck and call throughout our stay, anticipating our every want & need without being the least bit intrusive. We were made to feel as tho' we were long lost friends. This was the best experience we have ever had at a Bed & Breakfast. God willing, we will return

My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary and had a great time. The place is away from the road that you forget about the chaos of life and get to enjoy the nature. We had up close visits from turkeys and deer, makes a person not want to leave. The breakfast was unlike any breakfast we have had and we enjoyed every bit of it. We plan on returning many more times in the future.

Top 10 reasons you shouldn't use an amiibo as a sex toy [NSFW]
Most people only need one reason, but hey. Maybe you're feeling adventurous. Feeling a bit frisky about that Meta Knight statue that's just asking for it.
So here are 10 reasons you should definitely not use amiibos as butt plugs.
10. Jesus Christ that shape
As you may have deduced from that Destructoid article about amiibo's as sex toys they're not really the right shape to put in your butt.
This is a Greninja amiibo:
There are certainly levels of nope in the sex-toy world, but this is probably near the top. There's basically no part of your lady or dude bits that is getting any sort of enjoyment out of it.
9. WTF is Polystyrene
Polystyrene is what makes up like plastic cutlery, CD cases, and styrofoam. It's also what is in your amiibo. Why? Who knows. They probably didn't think you'd want to use your collectible Mario figurine for that kind of pleasurable situation.
Why is this relevant? Well because ideally you'd want to a)clean your amiibo before insertion as well as b) actually insert it, and for that you'd want to be sure that it's rated for sex use.
And polystyrene doesn't pop up on any good list of sex-toy materials. Maybe this means nothing. Maybe it's important. Maybe you should just stick to silicon, Cyberskin, and PVC jelly, like the good book says.
8. Um, waste of money?
Here's a $20 butt plug from Amazon. With amiibo's coming in at about $13, it's only marginally more expensive. Additionally, depending on the butt plug, you can probably get it with Prime.
You know what else, it's actually designed to go into the human body.
7. Once the "butt-plug novelty" wears off, you'll never be able to use it again
Can you imagine looking your Ness amiibo the same way ever again. Good sex story or bad sex story, you've now performed an unforgiveable act on a piece of plastic. With this expression:
Think of the children.
6. Flared Bases Are Important
Any sex-toy story gone-wrong usually ends with this bit of advice at the end: flared based are important.
Here's a Reddit thread where people explain how important flared bases are on butt plugs and sex toys.
5. There are Better Options
As mentioned previously, there are plenty of places where you can purchase actual sex toys. There is Amazon of course, but if you want to buy your sex toys from a site that specializes, here are some options:
Additionally, you probably have a place near you called an "Adult Bookstore." They do not usually sell books, but they do sell sex toys. Go there first.
4. Seriously, here's some resources for homemade sex toys
But you're eyeing that Mewtwo figurine and thinking "but Amanda, sex toys cost money."
Damn right they do.
As I've illuminated in other portions of this article there are reasons that they are expensive (mostly related to the fact that you should only put good things in your body.)
With that in mind, here is a link to homemade sex toys.
3. Your amiibo is forever unclean
Proper sex-toy use involves actually cleaning your sex-toys before and after insertion. I bring this up because, as none of these amiibo's are really "ridged for her pleasure" they are figurines. Look at all those tiny crevices, the folds of their plastic shirts.
Now imagine ever getting the potential grit or lubricant out of the Wii fitness trainer's yoga pants.
I don't think you can.
2. There goes your resale value
Other people have illuminated why in other places, but amiibo's have value. People like to buy them, collect them and make use of them.
Putting them in your butt is an instant way to devalue them. There is really no delicate way to say that.
1. Seriously, just don't do it
Don't be that story that we have to write about tomorrow about some 17-year-old kid who read that Destructoid article and was sent to the emergency room cause Charizard does not make a good butt plug.

Father Found reconnects a son with his father, who had volunteered from the California National Guard in pre-World War II days for active duty in the Philippines. War commenced and after time on Bataan and Corregidor, the father became a POW in early 1942. Shifted through numerous POW camps over three years, he was placed on the last prison ship to Japan three weeks before American forces arrived in the area. After two different bombing attacks he died, seven months before war's end. The author weaves the story through interviews with men who knew his father, who were in the same camps, and who experienced and endured similar conditions. The story is told primarily from first-hand reports, diaries, journals, and scraps of paper, often buried and later recovered or hand carried to liberation. The few twenty-five word POW cards that arrived from the camps are shared. Letters to the family from surviving friends give glimpses of life, friendships made, and stories told. The author examines the war years within the hopes, concerns, and feelings of both POWs and families at home. The author tells of his own journey over these years as his research and memory provided it.

Software Modem
Definition - What does Software Modem mean?
A software modem is a modem with minimum hardware capability designed to work using a host computer's resources. Softare modems are capable of a majority of tasks performed by a traditional hardware modem, but use the host computer's processor to carry out the signal processing required to modulate and demodulate data signals.
This term is also known as win modem, soft modem and driver based modem.
Techopedia explains Software Modem
The first commercially available software modems only worked with Microsoft windows family of operating systems and hence were referred to as win modems. It was also difficult to incorporate modems of this type on other operating systems, due to lack of vendor support and standard device interface.
Software modems generally fall into two categories - the win modems and linmodems. The win modem only works on Windows and linmodems on Linux. Win modems incorporate CPU and DSP of modems into an enhanced fabric of a PC. They are implemented through chipsets, which modem manufacturers solder onto motherboards.
Software modems can also be classified based on communication interface with host computer. These modems cab be integrated in PC cards or MiniPCI for use in a portable computer.

This has to be the coolest TonePort product I have seen. It has two mic inputs so you can mic a guitar cab and sing at the same time. It has 1/4" outs to run to your monitors or PA, and it even has footswitch and expression pedal inputs to control the software that comes with it. The keyboard aspect of this audio interface is ingenius. If you are using software that has drums or virtual instruments, you can now have access to them and control the playback and record buttons as well. The KB37 will help you write more songs and add all of the elements you need such as bass and drums without having a band. If you play guitar, play by yourself, or even record other guitarists and vocalists, then the KB37 is a perfect addition to your computer music studio.

Great Controller and Interface
I've had this gear for roughly six months now. Overall, I am very impressed. I control Logic Pro 9 with it and record vocals. Great vocal clarity. I have a inexpensive Samson Mic, simply for reference tracks. You also receive a vocal/guitar/bass preamp software with the purchase. The Line 6 customer service was very helpful when I needed an answer on assigning inputs. For the price, you get a solid controller that is great for the studio. On a few occassions, I used during gigs by running it with Mainstage. However, performing on 37 keys is not too fun, but it got the job done.
Good piece of gear
Super light. A key controller and an audio interface combi---all in one!! The downloadable software packs some amazing FX, including vocal and guitar. A great gear on the go that does all the tasks. The shell, however, is made entirely of plastic. Drop it and it probably won't survive. Would prefer semi-weighted action keys like those on the M-Audio Axiom. But that ain't a big deal. USB-powered. Compact enough to fit in your bag.
So far it's an amazing device I am glad I purchased this
I have only had this device a few days but what I can say so far is that it is a solid built product. I previously had the silver bundle gear box and was looking to upgrade to the Pod Studio UX2. I found the gearbox very useful and wanted the added capibility of more input lines and the ability to run two mics to it. I was also looking at midi controllers then I saw the KB37 the best of all worlds. I was hesitant to get it because I wasn't sure if my module packs I purchased would work on the new device. Tried to get an answer from line6 but they didn't respond and my sweetwater rep. tried his best to get an answer. That was the only thing that made me hesitate.
Well my friends all the module packs are able to transfer from my old device into the new KB37. Awesome!! to make it forward campatible line6. I was stoked I didn't have to shell out again for module packs.
I will be putting the KB37 through it paces this weekend with my band's recording session. In my setup, it is running via SPDIF into my Presonus firewire recording studio. So after I get a chance to use it in that scenario I will report back on how it went. If you are thinking about this device, I strongly encourage you to get it.
Gets it done.
The Tone Port KB37 is definitely a bargain buy. The bundled amp models are more than sufficient for producing a professional sound without breaking the bank for a rack of dedicated gear. The sound quality really is tops for this price point.
The downside is the build quality. Although the keyboard is well enough, the knobs feel a bit flimsy and the pads stick on occasion, which makes them worthless for live performance.
Over all, if you're looking for an all-in-one studio solution under $500, you really can't go wrong with this bundle;)

From its star footballer Neymar to the popular country singer Gusttavo Lima, Brazil has fallen for two young Syrian brothers who have launched a pop career three years after fleeing their war-torn homeland.
Juman al-Najem, 10, and his seven-year-old brother Limar have become the poster children for Brazil's open-door policy, which has offered humanitarian visas to 2,000 Syrian refugees since 2013 – more than any other country in Latin America – and now they plan to record a single calling for peace in Syria.
The pair, known in English as the "Syrian Boys", arrived in the capital, Brasilia, from the southern Syrian city of Sweida with their parents, having lost a cousin in the war, and said they feared they would also have died if they had stayed.
Under the direction of a Brazilian producer, the brothers started singing lessons and have recorded music in Portuguese and Arabic. They have previously appeared on prime-time TV, and received a message from Brazilian football international Neymar saying that he hoped they "find peace" in Brazil. Now they plan to record the single – alongside top Brazilian pop stars – in the hope it will help publicise the plight of those still in Syria as the civil war in the country continues.
"We are doing this single, 'Peace in the World', to end the violence in Syria and the whole world," said Juman, adding that the idea was inspired by Michael Jackson's "We Are the World".
His brother Limar added: "People will listen and tell others to stop making war. A lot of people are dying, innocent children dead on the street."

Beds ready for use for migrants and refugees are prepared at a processing center on January 27, 2016 in Passau, Germany. The flow of migrants arriving in Passau has dropped to between 500 and 1,000 per day, down significantly from last November, when in the same region up to 6,000 migrants were arriving daily.
Limar said he was under no illusion that getting to Brazil saved the lives of his family. "[In Syria] there are guns everywhere, killing people and children ... If we were still there, we think we would no longer be alive."
The brothers recently received a surprise visit from their idol, Gusttavo Lima, for the popular magazine TV show Fantastico. They said Lima's style of music, known in Brazil as sertanejo or country music, existed in Syria as well. "We really like Syrian music," said Limar. "There's pop, funk, a kind of country music." Lima is on the list of artists the boys wish to collaborate with on the new single, although the final line-up has not yet been confirmed.
Yet as the boys' public profile grows, the plight of many other Syrian refugees in Brazil continues. While the country has won plaudits for accepting refugees, particularly as many countries in Europe dither over taking them, the paperwork is just the beginning.
Support is limited, and while refugees have the right to work, finding a job or a home remains difficult. Campaigners have suggested that along with giving refugees legal status, Brazil should also be looking at offering more support for those with specific needs, such as women at risk and survivors of violence.
"As well as open doors, Brazil also needs robust policies of integration and acceptance in society," said Camila Asano, foreign policy co-ordinator at Conectas, a human rights NGO based in São Paulo.
For the Syrian Boys and their family, though, Brazil has offered not only refuge, but also a future.
"We miss friends and family a lot, but Brazil is really, really good," said the boys' father Riad. "Here in Brazil, people are our family. I think it's great the boys are singing and it's nice when people talk of us.
"When we have money, we will help people there in Syria and here – those who are needy," he said.

Two notes. That's all it takes to recognize the distinctive and soulful voice of Michael McDonald. Distinctive and soulful, it is one of the most yearningly emotive instruments of our times, To this add formidable songwriting and keyboard skills, and you have an artist who has been a singular musical presence for four decades. From '70s-era Doobie Brothers classics such as "What A Fool Believes" and solo hits like "I Keep Forgettin'" through two highly-acclaimed Motown albums, genre-busting guest spots and innovative concept shows, the five-time Grammy Award winning McDonald is both timeless and ever-evolving.

Neon signs exhilarate. Hordes of people walk in all directions. Dotting the landscape, skyscrapers pierce the sky. For this group of uninitiated travellers, Shanghai is a surreal sight. Its frenetic pulse mesmerises, providing an intoxicating departure from normality.
In mid-October, a Perth Indigenous female basketball team journeyed to the Chinese megacity as part of the Friendship Games – the fledgling Western Australia-China sports tournament.
Included in that number was 15-year-old Johalia Davey hails from One Arm Point, a remote Aboriginal community north of Broome with a population of around 300 people. A stark contrast to Shanghai, the largest city in the world, with an estimated population close 20 million.
Johalia says she relished her initiation outside of Australia after believing she would "never travel to another country".
"I was very nervous and frightened because I had never travelled that far before," she says. "After a few days I got used to how different everything was and started to like being there. It is a completely different country and so far from Australia.
"I think many people there had never seen an aboriginal person before because they were taking a lot of photos of our team."
Johalia and her team-mates – students from Clontarf Girls Academy and Perth College – comprised the basketball team. Inevitably, the inexperienced team, consisting of players mainly aged 13 and 14, were overwhelmed in all three of their matches against Chinese university sides.
"The average height of our team is about 163cm and we were playing against teams with players close to 2m," coach Desiree Delcoure explains.
However, results are trivial in the Games, which also feature swimming, and track and field. The event aims to strengthen relationship between WA and China, using sport as a tool to transcend cultural boundaries.
The Friendship Games provides youth with an opportunity to embrace another culture, with many of the participants from backgrounds where venturing abroad is merely a pipedream.
None of the basketball team's 10 players had travelled overseas previously, with most not possessing a passport until their Shanghai invitation.
The girls did not only shoot hoops in Shanghai. They also savoured the local flavour through numerous cultural activities, including dragon boat racing.
Delcoure believes positive transformation had consumed the girls in the trip's aftermath.
"We had teachers at Clontarf comment on how the girls seem more confident and talkative since Shanghai," she says. "It was an invaluable opportunity for the girls to visit another country and experience a different culture. I think it has broadened their horizons and will help shape them. It was an eye-opening experience, with some of the girls from very small communities."
Life lessons were learned both on the court and in the street, says Johalia.
"I learned a lot about being on a team, trusting other people, and doing things I've never done before," she says. "It was hard being away from my family but I managed to get through it."
Now that the travel bug has left its indelible mark, Johalia hopes to travel to the United States one day.
Four-time Olympian and former Perth Wildcats championship captain Andrew Vlahov helped found the Friendship Games.
The basketballer-turned-businessman has ambitious plans to propel the event to new heights. Vlahov's vision is to transform the Games into the southern hemisphere's biggest youth festival by 2015.
The event would be held in Perth every two years and include athletes and students from not only China but other Asian countries including Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia.
"I am a firm believer that WA needs to integrate with Asia and sport's a great platform to build relationships," Vlahov says. "WA has the opportunity to build a strong and unique relationship with Asia. The event would be a fusion of sport and the arts, with displays of music and art to help with the cultural understanding."
Vlahov says the concept for the revamped Games has "popular support" but concedes significant financial backing is needed for the project to be realised.
"We need financial assistance from government and the private sector for this expansion of the event," he says. "We have made enquiries and discussions are taking place. The initial feedback has been really positive."
Vlahov says the inspiration behind expanding the event is to "capture as many young people", particularly those enduring hardships.
"It is an opportunity to give kids an opportunity they may not otherwise have," he says. "We want to provide an inclusive policy, including possible participation from foster kids and those in the juvenile justice system.
"It is brilliant seeing kids growing as people after experiencing another culture. It's important for our kids to understand different cultures."
If Vlahov's dream materialises, WA's relationship with Asia will be stronger. Perhaps, more importantly, communities within WA will strengthen too.

"Who are you?" I stuttered quietly.
"Who are you?" I said louder this time.
The man did not say anything to reply, but he was stareing strangely at Krista.
"Are you Krista's father?" Tiffany asked with a gasp as the man removed his hood.
He looked just like Krista except for his eyes, which were green.
He still didn't answer just looked at Krista the same way.
"Uhhh, guys I'm getting creeps." Krista's voice shook.

Mary Shelley Facts

Known for: writing the novel Frankenstein; married to the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley; daughter of Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin
Occupation: writer
Dates: August 30, 1797 - February 1, 1851
Also known as: Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin

Mary Shelley Biography:

Daughter of Mary Wollstonecraft (who died of complications from the birth) and William Godwin, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin was raised by her father and a stepmother. Her education was informal, as as typical of that time, especially for daughters.

In 1814, after a brief acquaintance, Mary eloped with the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. Her father refused to speak with her for several years afterwards. They married in 1816, soon after Percy Shelley's wife committed suicide. After they married, Mary and Percy tried to get custody of his children but they failed to do so. They had three children together who died in infancy, then Percy Florence was born in 1819.

She's known today as a member of the Romantic circle, as the daughter of Mary Wollstonecraft, and as the author of the novel Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus, published in 1818.

Frankenstein enjoyed immediate popularity upon its publication, and has inspired many imitations and versions, including many film versions in the 20th century. She wrote it when her husband's friend and associate, George, Lord Byron, suggested that each of the three (Percy Shelley, Mary Shelley and Byron) each write a ghost story.

She wrote several more novels and some short stories, with historical, Gothic or science fiction themes. She also edited an edition of Percy Shelley's poems, 1830. She was left to struggle financially when Shelley died, though she was able, with support from Shelley's family, to travel with her son after 1840. Her biography of her husband was unfinished at her death.

Tara Panasewicz is taking over leadership of the charitable organization. She is a lifelong resident of Kenosha, known for giving back to the community through volunteerism and education, according to United Way officials.

The Jellico Board of Mayor and Aldermen met Sept. 7 for a special called meeting, but residents of surrounding areas, including Newcomb, showed up in force with a different agenda.
When Mayor Les Stiers brought Jellico's plans to expand beyond its current borders before the planning commission on Sept. 1, he predicted opposition. It came almost immediately. Rumors of annexation spread, and people from High Cliff, Wooldridge, Brick Plant Hollow, Old Standard and Newcomb, came last Wednesday to show their disapproval.
Early in the morning on Sept. 8, Timmy A. Byrge died shortly after his Chevy Blazer collided with a Ford F150.
The two cars were traveling on Howard Baker Highway just east of State Route 297. Byrge was traveling west when his Blazer began to move left of center into the oncoming lane, Tennessee Highway Patrol Officer Aaron Evans' report said. An oncoming Ford, driven by Gloria S. Goad, was unable to take evasive action and the two vehicles collided, Evans said.
I have been reading the book of Joel, it only has three chapters, but they are so powerful. We read many stories or accounts of God's people straying from his love, his teachings and pursuing their own ways.
Without the protection of the Heavenly Father and relying on their own abilities there were often overwhelmed and defeated. Just as today God does not force his will on is we choose the latter.
Jellico will again celebrate its heritage as it hosts the 11th annual Old Fashioned Fall Festival on Oct. 7 and Oct. 8 at Veteran's Park.
This festival honors the areas heritage before modern technology began to change people's way of life.
In Jellico, several music performances are scheduled at Veteran's Park for the next two weekends.
This weekend White Water will take the stage on Friday night at 7. The Gem City Cruisers will also have a Cruise-in.
It's not been a good week for local middle school football teams, as both LaFollette and Jacksboro suffered losses Thursday night.

Eagleton scored again to take a 12-0 lead at the end of the opening quarter. The Owls trailed 26-0 at halftime. Powell scored LaFollette's lone touchdown on a run of over 50 yards.
Jellico cross-country runner Matt Bolton placed 3rd overall with a time of 21:03 in the Blue Devils' first major cross-country meet of the season Thursday evening at Oneida.

Maha Rao Shekha (1433AD–1488AD) was a Rajput chieftain belonging to the Kachwaha clan of Amar/Jaipur. He ruled over Amar(Jaipur). The Shekhawati gets its name from him, comprising the districts of Sikar , Churu and Jhunjhunu in the present-day Indian state of Rajasthan.
Maharao Shekha was born in B.S.1490, (A.D.1433), son of Rao Mokal Amar(Jaipur) and Rani Nirwan (Khetri). Rao Mokal was a chieftain who held the estate of Nan in fief from the ruler of Amar(Jaipur). Mokal and Nirwan were much troubled as they had no son for several years. They heard about the miraculous powers of the Shaikh Burhan, a Muslim mendicant. They decided to pay the man a visit. After they received the blessings of the Shaikh, a son was born to the couple. In honour of the mendicant, the couple named their son Shekha.
As the Ruler[edit]
At the age of 12 year he succeeded his father in V.S.1502, A.D 1445.
He was granted the title of MAHARAO by Raja Udaikaran ruler of Amar(Jaipur). The first act of his valour was his sudden attack on Napa (Sankhala Rajput) at Nagarchal, Saiwar, Multhan etc. when he was only 16 years old. From V.S.1530 to 1534, (A.D. 1473 to 1477) with the help of Panni Pathans, Rao Shekha conquered Dadri from Nop Singh Jatu and Bhiwani from Other Jatu Rajputs, Hansi from Ikhtar Khan and Hisar from Heda Khan Kaimkhanis. Thus he extended his territory and became powerful.
Establishment of Amarsar as capital[edit]
In V.S.1506, (A.D.1449) Shekha founded Amarsar other sources mention that it was founded in V.S.1517, (A.D.1460). In Amarsar Shekha built the temple of Bhagwan Jagdish and in V.S.1534, (A.D.1477), he built here the SHIKHARGARH FORT.
Conflict with Gaurs[edit]
Kolraj Gaur was ruling at Ghatwa under his commands tank was being excavated at Jhotari village and he had made a rule that any one passing that way should remove a quantity of earth from the tank. A Rajput person of Kachawa clan was returning home with his bride, the Rajput obeyed the rule and removed the earth but the Gaurs insisted that his wife should do the same.His widow went to Amarsar and placed a handful of dust before Shekha and told him the fame of the Kachawas would be tarnished if they did not take revenge upon the Gaurs. There upon, in V.S.1535, (A.D.1478) and Shekha invaded Ghatwa the battle took place at the same talab (tank), which ended with his demise because of injuries in the final battle.
Battle of Ghatwa[edit]
The Gaur Rajputs fought about 12 battles with Shekha. In the last battle, they met near Ghatwa on the "Khontiya" tank and fought fiercely. Rao Ridmal of Maroth wounded Shekha with his arrows . Nawalraj, a son of Kolraj, killed Kunwar Durga and Kunwar Puranmal, sons of Shekha.
Rao Shekha was severely wounded and before his end, he nominated Raimal as his successor. Shekha expired peacefully at Ralawata on Baisakh Sudi 3 (Akha Teej), V.S.1545, (A.D.1488), His chattri (cenotaph) was built there.
Maharao Shekha fought 52 battles in his life. He is the founder and ancestor of the Shekhawat sub-clan of Jaipur's Kachwaha Dynasty.
Rao Shekha, born September 24, 1433, had five Ranis (Queens), who are referred to by their maiden names (surnames), and had issue, 12 sons (8 survived) and 3 daughters.
- (a) He married firstly, Taankan-ji Ganga Kumari, daughter of Nagvanshi 'Keelhan Taank' of Nagar-gadh, she established the Kalyanji temple facing entry of Amarsar Fort around 1516-17 V.S.;

Dreaming in ColorMature
More lyrics
Little boy, little boy
Where you going little boy?
Hope you weren't running away
Because this ward's under quarantine
There's fights out on the mezzanine
Besides, it's a holy day
They found us in the cellar reminiscing 'bout the glory days -
Tellin' us they were dead.
'til we got up and said:
I don't know where I'm going,
I can't fear what you said.
I find with every moment
Looking back just makes us dead.
I've beat out each pariah,
Broke every windowpane.
I believe if I'm just me then
I'll find my way again
Get up, get down - You're losing control
Don't find yourself, but don't lose your soul.
Caring too much just more breaks your heart
When everything that matters falls apart.
Right all your wrongs 'til everything's gone,
Bleed out the words 'til they make a song.
No shades of grey, there's not much to say
When dreaming's all that takes the pain away.
So dream with be about a better day.

BOOKIES last night slashed the odds on Gary Barlow being knighted after the
Take That star organised a triumphant Diamond Jubilee concert.
William Hill put him at 6-1 ON to be made Sir Gary while Ladbrokes offered
evens on him getting the honour by 2014.
Monday night's show in front of Buckingham Palace included Sir Paul McCartney,
Sir Elton John and Stevie Wonder.
Yesterday proud Gary, 41, said: "Not only were acts having a great time front
of stage, the whole of the backstage area were having a good time as well.
It was an amazing day for our country."
He said one highlight was scantily-clad Grace Jones, 64, spinning a hula hoop
throughout her song adding: "It was absolute genius."
Prince William said her act had "men passing binoculars around".
The BBC1 coverage averaged 14.7million but peaked at 17.1million — the biggest
audience since the wedding last year of Wills and Kate pulled in
BBC1 boss Danny Cohen said: "The concert drew the nation together in an
extraordinary way."
But viewers criticised "inappropriate" jokes from Lenny Henry and rapped
Cheryl Cole after her lacklustre duet with Gary — which was axed from
yesterday's highlights show.
The Sun can reveal the BBC also received more than 600 complaints over parts
of its "inane" celebrity-driven coverage of the previous day's River Thames

Head girl and head boy
|This article does not cite any sources. (March 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Head boy and head girl are roles of prominent student responsibility. The terms are commonly used in the British education system and in private schools throughout the Commonwealth organisations.
United Kingdom and Ireland[edit]
In some British schools, the pupil body (or the headteacher) may elect a head boy and/or a head girl from the pupils/students. Head boys and head girls are usually responsible for representing the school at events, and therefore must be able to make public speeches also being a good role-model for students, and sharing pupils' ideas with the schools leadership. He or she may also be expected to lead fellow prefects in their duties. Deputy head boys and girls may also be appointed, taking on the day-to-day management of the prefects in some institutions, as well as looking after the school and creating a link between teachers and pupils.
Other Commonwealth countries[edit]
All schools in Hong Kong, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Singapore, UAE and Malaysia, and many in the Commonwealth Caribbean, as well as South Africa and Canada, follow the same system as that in the United Kingdom, having a head girl and head boy or head prefect, a vice-head girl/boy, prefects, house captains, monitors and class representatives. (source?) The head girl and boy assist the teachers and administration of the school. Nigerian and Ghanaian schools follow a similar system although some schools appoint a head prefect or senior prefect and assistant senior prefect.
In Australia, the system is much the same as that of the United Kingdom. Almost all public secondary schools will have a student council with each year group having elected representatives. The head boy and head girl are generally the "chair" of this council and will represent the school on a government or community level and will represent the students at the school level.
Notable head boys and girls[edit]

- Hayley Atwell, best known for appearing as Agent Carter in Captain America: The First Avenger, was head girl at Sion Manning Roman Catholic Girls' School

When the brake pedal on an automobile is depressed, a brake switch closes and lets voltage flow to the brake lights. This switch has a "hot" side (the terminal which has battery voltage always present), and a "cold" side (which delivers voltage on demand to the brake lights). When replacing a brake switch, or when checking the related circuit, it is important that you know the hot and cold sides. Being aware of which is which will help you avoid blowing fuses from or melting wires when working on the brake lighting system.
Things You'll Need
- Safety glasses
- Light weight gloves
- Test light or voltmeter
Put on your safety glasses and gloves.
Locate the brake switch on the vehicle. It is usually underneath the dash just above the brake pedal. Look for a small switch attached to the brake linkage that has two wires connected to it.
Connect the pigtail of the test light to a good ground. If using a voltmeter, connect the negative lead to a good ground. With the brake switch disengaged, probe one of the two wires at the connector with the positive lead of your tool of choice. The hot wire will either light the test lamp or cause the voltmeter to read the battery voltage of the vehicle. The cold lead will have no response on the tools.
Tips & Warnings
- Working underneath a dash can be tight. Using a mirror and troublelight will help you locate tucked-away wires and switches.
- Sometimes it can be difficult to backprobe a switch. Using a small paperclip bent at a 90 degree angle can help get an easier hookup for the voltmeter or test lamp.
- Be careful when backprobing connectors that are hot. You can blow a fuse if you accidentally ground the test lamp probe.
