Plants chickens (probably) won't kill
Chicken Gardens by
Jessi Bloom provided some handy tips about planting a garden with
chickens in mind. The author's general advice is to give the
chickens as much space and as many types of plants as possible to
prevent over-eating (or -scratching) any one spot. She also
admonishes us to provide multiple plant layers (ie trees, shrubs,
vines, and groundcovers) to give the chickens plenty of nooks and
crannies in which to hide from predators.
Shrubs are can stand
alone in the chicken garden, or can be turned into hedges. I'll
have to try some of Bloom's chicken-friendly, useful hedging species,
which include bamboo, elderberries, hawthorn, hazelnut, holly, rugosa rose, serviceberry, viburnum, and willows. Standalone shrubs
that provide fruits or nuts and handle chickens well include brambles, Darwin and Magellan barberries, gooseberries and currants, Oregon
grape, aronia, blueberries, gojiberries, honeyberries, Russian
olive (careful,
this is invasive), serviceberries, sea
buckthorn, and Siberian
pea shrub.

BEREA — The Browns hope their top pick fits in as well as his name does.
Barkevious Mingo thinks it's pretty neat to join the Dawg Pound.
"(My name) is very fitting," Mingo said. "I'm very excited. It's a lifelong dream and coming to a team and city that loves football."
Rob Chudzinski referred to Mingo as 'Keke' throughout the press conference.
It's obvious the Browns are hoping to put so much pressure on opposing quarterbacks that the defensive backs won't have to cover very long.
"It all starts with pass rushers and trying to affect the quarterback with the pass rush helps your back end in coverage," Chudzinski said. "It's been a priority for us. We want a strong front with guys that can run and getting to the quarterback is a key element. We obviously found some guys in free agency and we felt the same way about Keke and we're happy to have him."
Mingo (6-4, 241) ran a 4.6 in the 40-yard dash. NFLDraftScout.com described Mingo as a 'quick twitch pass rusher with extraordinary upside, but never produced up to expectations in Baton Rouge'.
Browns CEO Joe Banner summed up the importance of the pass rush at the NFL Scouting Combine in February.
"The game is fundamentally about preventing pressure on your quarterback and getting pressure on the opposing team's quarterback," Banner said. "If you can do that, you have a chance to win any game against any team."
Mike Lombardi talked in the draft preview about there being some good pass rushers in this draft.
"Like in most draft, there's always guys that can rush the passer and I think this draft has several guys that can do that," Lombardi sad. "So it's more than just rush the passer, it's trying to make sure you find guys that can do a little bit of everything."
Banner said Mingo was the guy the Browns targeted with the sixth pick and had draft offers, but felt taking Mingo was the better way to go.
"We've been talking about the same things," Banner said. "We talked about bringing in aggressive players. This was the outcome we were hoping for and we feel very good about this.
"We've been talking to people (about trades) and did have some opportunities, but felt too strong about the player."
Banner did say that the Browns had a trade in place if Mingo wasn't available to them.
Chudzinski said that defensive coordinator Ray Horton was very involved in the process. Horton has to be happier than a kid in the candy store.
The Browns loaded up on pass rushers this off-season as they signed Paul Kruger and Quentin Groves in free agency and used their first pick to take Mingo. They also added defensive lineman Desmond Bryant.
Jabaal Sheard is being converted to outside linebacker and some thought he would be dispensable with the addition of Mingo, but Chudzinski was asked if there was still room for Sheard.
"Absolutely. We've been very impressed with Jabaal and his ability to make the adjustment to the 3-4," he said. "Adding Keke to the mix gives us another solid rusher. You can't have enough pass rushers."
Mingo is excited on how he will be used.
"I talked to coach Horton and he told me how they wanted to use me in this scheme," Mingo said. "He said they needed pass rushers and wanted somebody to get to the quarterback."
Mingo is excited to play in Horton's aggressive defensive.
"I agree with the point that the teams won't be able to predict where I'm coming from," he said. "The scheme on both sides of the ball is aggressive."
Mingo had 15 sacks in three seasons at LSU, including 8 as a sophomore and 4.5 as a junior. He had 119 tackles in his career with 29 tackles for loss and 27 quarterback pressures.
Chudzinski said the drop in sack totals doesn't tell the story about Mingo.
"One of the things you look at is not just sack totals, but how disruptive he is," he said. "The pressures on the quarterback, the batted balls, making quarterbacks step up and over the course of his career he had the production."
One question for Mingo converting to outside linebacker is he wasn't asked to drop back in coverage at LSU, but Chudzinski doesn't see it as a problem.
"We think from a physical standpoint that he can make the adjustment and he would be able to do that with his skill set," he said. "For the most part, he did not. He'll have to work on that and it's just a matter of him getting out there and doing it."
Mingo said that he isn't worried about the adjustment.
"I just have to want to get there and have a quick step and that's what they liked about me."
Mingo agrees his speed and quickness will help him excel at the next level.
"I think my speed separates me from every other guy in this draft," Mingo said at the combine. "I'm a fast guy and I've got a quick first step and I like getting to the quarterback."
Chudzinski agrees.
"His athleticism speaks for itself," he said. "He's just an explosive player. He's been battle-tested in the SEC, but still has plenty of room for growth. We see him as an explosive pass rusher."
NFL Network Analyst Mike Mayock described Mingo this way.
"He's explosive. He's quick," he said. "He can win at the snap. He can dip. He can bend. I mean, this is a guy with tremendous potential as a pass rusher, and that is what this league's about.
"When he was on the move, I thought he was almost unstoppable," he said. "When he was lined up on an island by himself against a quality tackle, I thought he struggled a little bit."
Ironically, Mingo is expected to make his NFL debut against the Dolphins, who was selected by Miami at the third spot after a trade up. It is believed the Browns were interested in Jordan. Mingo wants to prove he is the better player.
"I think I'm the best pass rusher," he said. "Hopefully, in Week One of the season, I show that."
Mingo said he wants to someday to just make it down the road from Cleveland.
"I think I'll be as good as I want to be and I want to be great," he said. "And I want to be a player that ends up in Canton."

WHEN AN ASSASSIN bursts from the shadows to try to kill him on the dark, windswept grounds of his boarding school in England, Max Gordon realizes his life is about to change forever.
After learning that his explorer father is missing, Max is determined to find him, no matter what dangers may lay in his path. A secret clue his father left behind leads Max to the inhospitable wilderness of Namibia, where he soon discovers a potentially massive ecological disaster masterminded by Shaka Chang, a very powerful and completely ruthless man—a man Max fears may have put his father in mortal danger. Max needs all the help he can get. Because whoever is behind his father's disappearance is determined to get rid of Max, too. For good.

Editorial Reviews
Gr 6-9
Tom Gordon is missing and presumed dead. Now his 15-year-old son, Max, must leave England and go to the wilds of Namibia to search for him. His father is no stranger to danger because it is his job to seek out and expose corporations and governments that are damaging the environment. This time the bad guy has been polluting the water supply by dumping a pharmaceutical's excess drugs, thus saving the expense of properly disposing of them. Tom Gordon has uncovered the illegal activities and has been taken captive. Max is aided in his search by Sayid, his boarding-school friend and a computer whiz; a 17-year-old female pilot; and a Bushman boy. The characters are likable, and it is interesting to read about the clicking language of the Bushmen people, but the story alternates between two locations with sometimes abrupt transitions, which could make following it a bit frustrating for younger readers. However, the action starts on page one and it never lets up. Max faces swarms of monkeys, bad guys, poison arrows, extreme weather, and starvation; is forced to learn to fly a plane; and has the momentous shape-shifting experience of turning into an eagle. Students who are able to sort out the locations and intricate plot will be rewarded with a rip-roaring ride of an adventure.-Jake Pettit, Thompson Valley High School Library, Loveland, CO

Read an Excerpt
The killer, like many assassins, came in the night.
The distant, echoing boom of gunfire and the lazy but deadly arc of machine guns' tracer rounds seeking out their target across the windswept countryside would help hide his presence. And tonight would be one of his easiest assignments. His victim was a fifteen-year-old boy.
He checked his watch. His timing was good. He was in position. First choice: make it look like an accident—a broken neck. Second choice: a shot to the head and dispose of the body. It made no difference to him. The wind had veered from the east to the north—there was a colder bite to it and he thought of the soldiers lying out there on the waterlogged ground. They would not have slept for days and, with almost constant gunfire and the demands of patrolling, exhaustion and the cold would have eaten into them.
The steady chattering of the soldiers' machine guns, a couple of kilometers away, was a comfort to him, the staccato rhythm like music to his ears. The ground-sucking crump of mortar fire and the thud of distant artillery blended in his senses. Some of his happiest days as a soldier had been spent killing, but now he offered a more personal service in his lucrative trade of murder. He was being paid impressive money for this job—so, whoever this kid was, someone badly wanted him dead. He checked his watch again, and then eased a 9mm semiautomatic pistol from his waistband—better to have it ready.
Out in the darkness, a few minutes away from where the killer waited, fifteen-year-old Max Gordon jogged along the thin strip of tarmac. His dad had been right in sending him to school here; these past three years had built up his strength and agility, and he'd decided to enter one of the junior triathlon contests: extreme sports were the real test of nerve and skill. Next year there would be a Junior X-treme Competition in the French Pyrenees and Max wanted to compete in the downhill mountain-bike race, snowboarding and wildwater kayaking—every one a big adrenaline rush. He knew it was ambitious, but he had the stamina and physical strength now. These extra late-night training runs were paying off. Although it was nearly pitch black, especially when the North Atlantic weather fronts roared in from the coast, there was always enough ambient light to see the tarmac ribbon guiding him around the dinosaur-like boulders.
His breathing settled as he locked into a perfect pace. Across the landscape firepower crisscrossed the night. Explosions were much further away and parachute flares jigged ineffectively in the sky as the buffeting wind swept them away. But he was safe where he was. The commandos and paratroopers were in a designated training area and were no threat to him here. Another four kilometers on the loop back and he'd turn for home, have a hot shower and then bed.
Then he heard a sound that didn't belong. Instincts focused his senses. A soft metallic click—about twenty meters ahead. There was a curved bowl worn away into the hillside, probably made by animals seeking shelter over the years, and that was where the noise had come from. Max knew there shouldn't be any soldiers about here and caution slowed his pace. The wind had shifted slightly, to dead ahead, and that was why he had heard the noise. Like a car door being pressed gently closed. Or an automatic pistol being cocked.
In less time than it took to think, he veered off the road and into the gorse, putting on a turn of speed and feeling the needle-sharp foliage scratching his legs. Just as he glanced back, a shadow moved from behind a sheltering boulder and then disappeared again. Whoever was out there knew what he was doing, and there was no doubt in Max's mind that the shadow was after him.
He pounded across the dangerously uneven ground, risking a twisted ankle. A fall would put him at the mercy of whoever was chasing him, but he had no choice—he needed to put distance between himself and his pursuer. Arms pumping, eyes streaming with tears from the cold, he glanced around and saw the blurred shadow coming at an angle towards him. Max was heading straight into the military danger zone—the terrifying crackle of gunfire ahead of him was louder than he'd ever heard it before and the lethal stream of bullets scythed across the sky; he ducked instinctively from the ripped air above his head.
Another quick look over his shoulder told him that the shadow had gone, but then Max lost his footing. Stumbling, he fell; his arm scraped granite and flint, and the raw pain made him yelp. He rolled and scrambled to his feet again—but now in almost complete darkness. The machine-gun firing had stopped; the artillery and mortars had fallen silent. He was running into a black void where the low, ground-hugging fug of smoke stung his eyes and the acrid taste of cordite burned the back of his throat. It was like the aftermath of a massive fireworks display—except these fireworks could rip you apart. He realized, too late, that he'd under- estimated the shadow pursuing him. He thought he could outrun him but the man had cut behind him, keeping himself out of sight, and Max could still hear the thump of his feet, getting closer now. Desperation powered him on, his feet came free of the gorse and found a scratch of track through the bracken. Sucking in as much air as his lungs could bear, he ran blindly onwards. The whiplash of a bullet cracked past his ear, followed almost immediately by the sound of the gunshot from behind him. No doubt now—his pursuer was out to kill. Max felt his legs give a little, but that was the ground falling away into a dip. And the man behind him was getting closer, homing right in on his target like a heat-seeking missile.

His father is missing, he's an assassin's target, he has one clue and no time. He's Max Gordon and someone wants him dead. In the fictional story, "The Devil's Breath" by David Gilman, Max Gordon (the main character) is being hunted by an assassin who is very skilled at what he does. David Gilman has had many jobs in his life from firefighter to photographer and even a soldier in Parachute Regiment's Renaissance Platoon. He grew up in England and Wales, when he was a kid his family had to move every six months because of his father's business. He has lived and travelled the world gathering inspiration for his exotic children's adventure series along the way. Now, David is based in Devonshire, where he lives with his wife, Suzy Chiazzari, three cats and a cantankerous old Land Rover. Max Gordon is the main character in this book, he's an adventurous risk taking type of personality. Being chased by this assassin in the book makes Max have to hide and move every other couple of weeks. Max Gordon resembles David Gilman in a way where Max has to move frequently, and so did Mr. Gilman except that Max is being chased by an assassin and David just moves because of his dad business. Max was my favorite character because he's exciting to hear about based on how Mr. Gilman describes his doings and writes about his personality. Also, Max Gordon went to Wales in search of his dad this is another reason Max is Mr. Gilman. David wrote his first book (not published) when he was six years old called the "Runaway Sixpence". David Gilman's writing is a suspenseful type of writing where you want to know what happens then you flip the page and nothing happens. Action is the word I would say describes this book the best. The theme in "The Devil's Breath" is that family comes first. As Max in this story goes in search of his dad as his dad went missing in Africa, so max goes in search but an assassin is trying to kill him so he doesn't find his dad. The assassin in this story is sort of like the Grinch in a way where he is trying to stop max from getting to his dad and in the Grinch the grinch is trying to stop the people from having Christmas. Bottom line of what I'm saying is that this is an amazing book, great detail it really made me imagine the story in my head as it was playing out, almost like a movie screen in my head and I'm watching it live. This book can also open doors for others who may be shy, because this shows you that you can do anything you put your mind to. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves action and or adventurous types of books. If you don't like action books at all I'd say this is the book to start on so much suspense and detail!!
good i loved it
Max Gordon is on the run. He was almost killed by an assassin, his dad has been kidnapped, and he only has one clue as to where he is. Still, he is determined to find him no matter what kind of danger faces him. With the one clue he is given, he figures out that his father is in the deserts of Namibia exploring a company that is about to hurt thousands of people. Those people know that Max's dad has found evidence against them and think that Max has knowledge of this evidence, as well. While he is on the mission to find his father, regardless of the evidence, the company is determined to kill Max. Max is aided with the help of Koga, a local bushmen, who has a very keen sense of the wild; Kallie van Reenen, a local girl who has a great knowledge of planes and the sky; and his best mate back in England. All three of these people form Max's support system as he embarks on the most grueling adventure imaginable, all in search of his father. Will Max be able to beat the odds and survive - or will his captors get the better of him? THE DEVIL'S BREATH is an action-packed book that any reader will find hard to put down. With every page turned, you don't know what's coming next, and you're on the edge of your seat. Throughout the book, you hear the story from different perspectives, whether it be the main story from Max, the antagonist's point of view, and even sometimes the story is heard from Max's two friends, who are helping him with his search to find his father. I thought that the use of alternating perspectives was interesting, but at times it got confusing because some of the characters sounded the same. While the author did a great job building up the book with lots of suspense, I did find parts of the story to be very predictable and not that interesting. Other parts of the book, though, definitely made up for this, and I found myself intrigued. At times the book got a bit violent, which I didn't think was necessary, but it may have been appreciated more by the male readership. Despite this fact, I think THE DEVIL'S BREATH would be a good read for all teens, and it was a good start to a potentially thrilling series.
Max Gordon was out for an evening run, when he heard something in that didn't fit in with his surroundings. Instinct and knowledge made him run faster, fleeing someone with a gun. In a few minutes, he realized that this was no game and he could die. However, in stroke of luck, he escaped. Now, back at school, he's told that no one has heard from his father in over a week. Max sets out to find his dad, knowing that he could be walking into a trap. His mate at school promised to keep an eye on things and send word if he notices anything suspicious. Meantime, Max makes his way to Africa and with the help of people who know his father, sets out to track him down. A boy tags along, showing him the ways of the wilderness. Together they must escape heat, wild animals, thirst, and the relentless men trying to hunt them down. With danger at every turn, will they survive long enough to find and recover Max's father and can they uncover the secret his father buried?
I really enjoyed this novel: the danger, the elements of surprise, not knowing who the characters could trust. It's a great adventure tale and with a tag line of a series: the Danger Zone, I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.
i hate this book! it doesnt GRAB you like The Hunger Games by James Patterson

Here am I, sitting in my tin can: A Canadian astronaut aboard the International Space Station has produced what is believed to be the first music video made in zero-gravity. Astronaut Chris Hadfield taped a version of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" for YouTube.
Hadfield returned to Earth late Monday, unfortunately before he could finish work on programming the space station's robotic Canadarm to play Pete Townshend's windmill guitar riffs.
Work and play: Social networks Facebook and LinkedIn will celebrate the anniversaries of their initial public offering this week, with different outcomes: Facebook's stock is down 29 percent to about $27 a share, while LinkedIn has climbed to more than four times its IPO value at $175 a share.
The difference could be a matter of LinkedIn's role in the career world, but more likely it's because people there don't pester you with requests to play Candy Crush and FarmVille.
Don't know much about history: On this day in 1973, NASA launched Skylab 1, the first manned space station, into orbit.
Even under the limitations of the era's technology, Skylab's astronauts were able to film the real first music video in space using a Super 8 camera and an 8-track deck playing Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon."

Mashery Opens Up A Lounge at SXSW Designed To Bring The Fun Back In Technology
For many, going to the myriad of sessions and panels at the South by Southwest Interactive conference is great, but there are times when you'll want to spend a brief moment or two just sitting down and relaxing without feeling so much pressure. Maybe you need to get a little bit of work done or you need to co-work with your peers. Or, maybe you've met up with that special attendee and you want to interview them or at least talk more about what they're doing and form a potential partnership. So now where are you supposed to go in the Austin Convention Center to do all that? You could head back to your hotel room, but that's a bit awkward. Maybe try someplace in one of the hotel lobbies? Probably not because there aren't that many chairs & it's not cozy enough to be productive. How about some place to sit in the Austin Convention Center hallway? Yeah, good luck…there are even fewer chairs there!
Never fear, because Mashery has got the place for you! For the fourth straight year, the Internet's leading API management service is setting up a room just attendees. If you got a badge and need a place to rest and take a load off, then head over to Mashery's Circus Mashimus lounge within the Austin Convention Center. Here, you'll be able to have your intimate meetings, meet new clients, check your email, tweet, update your Facebook status, grab some popcorn, enjoy some beverages, and just relax and let yourself enjoy the SXSW experience. We all know that for some, SXSW can be overwhelming, but Mashery is looking to help you just enjoy the moment. Their popular circus theme will give you the perfect setting for a morning wake-me-up (coffee or Bloody Mary's), or even an afternoon get-me-started (free beer and snacks!).
This year, Mashery is bringing back one of its most popular parts of the Circus Mashimus lounge: AppCircus. That's right, this year will be the continuation of an annual tradition–a multi-continent competition for developers will be held at SXSW where selected finalists who have created some of the most creative and innovative applications within the mobile/web space will be given the opportunity to demonstrate and present their product for the entire world to see right in the Mashery lounge. The winner will be named by a panel of well-known jurists, including Anoop Ranganath, lead iPhone developer at Foursquare, Matthew Wilson, marketing manager at Rovio Mobile, Stacey Higginbotham, senior writer with GigaOm, and others. You can view the selected finalists here, but make sure you're at the Circus Mashimus lounge on March 12 as the winner will be named between 2-4pm.
The lounge will be open every day during the SXSW Interactive show between 9:30am-6:00pm.
Bub.blicio.us's own Allison McNeill attended the Circus Mashimus event two years ago and here's a great interview she did with Mashery's CEO Oren Michels.

Re: Training
The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 10.0903 Wednesday, 26 May 1999.
Date: Tuesday, 25 May 1999 14:22:19 -0400
Subject: 10.0894 Training
Comment: Re: SHK 10.0894 Training
Hello, Sarah (and all, as this be my first message on the forum)....
An interesting question! I suspect there will be some disagreement (I'm
hoping for some so I can learn as well), but I'll venture a humble
opinion from my perspective as a working actor in the US. (and sometimes
I'm even paid....but not to digress...)
If I could venture out at your age from your part of the world, willing
to travel round the world, and I were full tilt on classical acting
education, I'd look into what Oxford and the Royal Shakespeare Company
might offer. This may seem obvious, but why not start there? I just
met a young actress at an audition last night who just returned from
spending some time in London. She said it was quite affordable to see a
variety of plays, especially at student rates, but there was a lot of
bad stuff in with a lot of good stuff. Anyway, I'm sure there are
several good sources of classical training there, and what better place
to learn about the Bard?
As I'm a tad older, and in N. Virginia, I look to what courses the
Shakespeare Theatre in Washington, DC, will have. This is a working
professional theater with outstanding productions, and many classes are
taught by the resident actors. I recently completed a workshop with
Edward Gero (who also teaches at a local university) and learned quite a
lot. I hope to study further, both at the Shakespeare Theater, and with
Prof. Gero.
I favor classes and workshops taught by working actors and directors,
vs. those from a more academic setting. In the US, there are groups
such as Shakespeare and Company that offer full time study, and the
Shenandoah Shakespeare Express, which offers a total one year immersion
by performing many parts in many plays as part of a travelling company.
Ah, but to be in my early 20s once again, I'd pursue this latter route!
There seems to be nothing better to experiencing the full time Ren
actor's life. Little money, food and lodging as they come, but lots and
lots of performances! I love to learn by doing-auditioning,
rehearsing, and performing. I like to think of my directors as my best
instructors; along with the text itself...
There are many good programs of acting instruction I've not gone into; I
haven't even mentioned my alma mater, Florida State University...well,
now I have! Perhaps others will volunteer info? What is PTTP? And keep
us posted, Sarah...break a leg!

offered jointly by the Shakespeare Theatre and George Washington

The Chargers apparently are willing to trade linebacker Shawne Merriman. But they're going about it the wrong way.
Of course, they likely don't care about that.
But we do. So here's a little PFT Daily on the topic.

Can we have a Leroy Hill for Merriman trade please ? 😦
Merriman owes the Chargers a season worth a pay, and the 4 games he tested for roid use.
Kiss my ass merriman and take what you get until you prove you deserve it..
Merriman is junk without PHD
This steroid laced misfit will never perform like he did in his younger days. Loser!
He'll be a Saint soon.
Bring him home. Andre Carter for Merriman straight up, or Haynesworth for Merriman and 2nd or 3rd rounder.
Boohoo for Merriman. Maybe he shouldn't be doing steroids? Maybe he should have had knee surgery in the offseason 2 years ago rather than missing the year like a dumb jock. And of course…there's Tila Tequila…no tears should be shed for how the Chargers are dealing with this goofball. And if he smartened up a bit…maybe they'd give him the deal he covets.
Winner, and STILL king douche bag of the Internet::::
Has it ever occurred to this lawyer who NEVER played football that for SD it's worth it to have a highly motivated player?
Let me put it another way…how much effort will 56 give knowing he can hit the market in a year?
But you probably haven't considered that oh nerdy guru of beat up geeks.
Since getting busted for roids Merriman has gone form "Lights Out" to "Is he still on the team?"
Ok, can this not be a daily segment anymore? you guys are starting to embarrass yourself with these story-less stories just so you can run some video ads

What's PHD?
Chargers have a history of giving solid deals to players that deserve it.
Rivers, Tomlinson in his prime. You take a guy like Merriman, and you offer the Chargers what???
If he performs, he will either get his deal from SD, or another team will decide to pony up enough to intice AJ Smith to trade him.
Not sure what the point of the PFT TV story was- I like the site, i passes the time, but I really could care less about what Florio thinks about this. It's a business decision, plain and simple. Not really a right and wrong answer here. Just posturing and jockeying for position by Merriman, the Chargers front office, and prospective other teams.
A bit touchy for a "Merriman". Friar Grouch.
There are two factions here, buyers and sellers. The seller can ask whatever they want for the item or items for sale and it is then up to the buyer to decide if they want to buy or if the price is to high. Since when does a half-assed blogger decide what price is fair? If the price is to high the market will decide not Florio.
And Merriman wasnt being "fair" when he was getting 'roided up either.
I think the Chargers need to pursue this issue with Merriman in a different manor. They should seriously sit down with him and explain the circumstances.
I know Merriman is so eager to sign a long term deal, but even he should understand that not just the Chargers, but all of the NFL teams are waiting to see how he response on the field this season.
Now that he's had his knee surgery, had a full off season to recover. He has that second chance to either prove that he's still the "Lights Out" player he was when he entered the league, or he's not that same elite guy anymore.
I for one think Merriman is still an elite player. He showed it on the field last season, no he didn't have the DD sack numbers that we are used to seeing, but he showed he can still play. He was often doubled, still made plays against the run and still has the respect of the defense. I hope the Chargers don't trade him before the season starts, I hope he remains a charger, step on the field and prove his worth and than get signed long term to the Chargers. Merriman is far from done, he's still a very dominant player that opposing teams still respect.
LightsOut, if you want a long term deal, prove it on the field this season.
If he walks SD will likely get get a 3rd rounder as a compensatory pick anyway so asking for a 1st rounder isn't so unreasonable. As posted, the guy jobbed SD out of 1 1/2 yrs of his contract by not having surgery when advised and another 4 mos for his suspension. Then you want them to lose even more value by trading him for a 2nd rnd pick?
SD needs a pass rusher of similar ability hence the 1st rounder which would have been used in this year's draft for a replacement or they just keep him. He is getting $3+M on the highest tender which is what he would be making under a new contract so he is hardly being treated unfairly.
It is on him not SD to regain his form and get another big payday next year.
Why does Merriman think he's worth a lot again??? Oh I remember now, for that one great year he had…when he was juiced…next.
Meriman is mis -unserstood.
He likes Peter Pan and loves Disney movies.
See you in Oakland Shaun.
AJ Smith and Merriman are both a couple of idiots, so this is perfect.
of course he's eager to sign a long term deal, anyone who seen him play realizes he is DONE
of course he's eager to sign a long term deal, anyone who seen him play realizes he is DONE
Not being fair to Merriman?
You think the Chargers' demand for a first-round pick was too high.
If the original story is to be believed, teams were willing to meet that price. But it was MERRIMAN's (or at least his agent's) high salary demand that nixed the trade.
To me, it sounds like Merriman wanted a salary that NO team was currently willing to meet, including the Chargers. Maybe that has a whole lot to do with the fact that Merriman has not yet…or may never…return to his prior elite level of play.
If he does this year, perhaps the Chargers will give him the contract he wants.
chargers suck merriman is a juice head and charger fans are real proud of their superbowl wins.match made in heaven.
"And Merriman wasnt being "fair" when he was getting 'roided up either"
Dude took the words right out of my mouth.
It's a matter of time when he leaves San Diego. When they drafting Larry English, it was a sign that Merriman might have played his last season with the Bolts. It's better off with these two going their seperate ways.
A_BITCH, STFU when grown folks are talkin.
So you are concerned about an admitted steroid user /Defensive ROY who has sucked since he was caught but you are coming down hard on one who passed a lie detector test saying that he didn't take steroids suggesting if he had it was unintentional. Why?
Shawne, let your play dictate how many 0's are on that check. A few years ago it would have been a nice payday but last year….not so much.
This year for Shawne is what last year was for LT. Shawne better put up the numbers and the domination that he claims or he most likely won't be a charger. He went from the best LB in the league to just a really good run defender.
Florio's point is right on the money. But the bigger question is not why the Chargers don't offer him the contract, it is how you expect to build a championship team by continually letting quality players walk away and settle for compensatory picks in exchange. Brees for a third round pick? Turner for a fifth round pick?
On a team with a head coach who does not believe in giving the "rah rah" speech instead believing it is up to the player to motivate themselves, don't you need some Merriman's? Or Edward's? Or Seau's? Or Harrison's? The quickest way to be sown the door in SD is to actually be leader.
All the insightful steroid comments show
how caught up to 2006 most of the posters
in here are. Merriman came back strong after
that…it's been the knee surgery that's held
him back since. Out almost all of '08, trying to get
back to 100% in '09. He was better than average
last year…often double teamed. There's reason
to think that–if FULLY healed–he could be
a real force again in 2010.
All of those of you fixated on 2006
(and who obviously haven't seen most of his snaps)
just keep broadcasting your ignorance, and thinking
that your '06 'roid lines are still clever or insightful.

The Chargers are just using a little common sense. There's no reason to move on this as they control Merriman right now. Plus, the character issues give the Chargers pause (that wouldn't be as much of a factor if he had had a monster year, so there is just a bit of hypocrisy there).
Bottom line, I hope Merriman has an all pro season and proves AJ wrong. In fact, I would imagine that AJ wouldn't mind being wrong either as that scenario would be a good thing for the Chargers in this season. But he's got to prove he's fully healed and past all the nagging stuff that plagued him. He played to an above average not superstar level this past year, so there is no reason to pay him until he proves he can still do it. I hope he can

The New World Translation
by Dr. Walter Martin
From the From The Founder column of the Christian Research Newsletter, Volume 3: Number 3, 1990
Dr. Julius R. Mantey was a first-rate scholar who studied Greek for more than 65 years. He was well known for A Manual Grammar of the Greek New Testament , which he co-authored with Dr. H. E. Dana. The following is a discussion that took place between Dr. Martin and Dr. Mantey on the Jehovah's Witnesses' New World Translation.
Dr. Martin: In John 1:1, the New World Translation (NWT) says that "the Word was a god," referring to Jesus Christ. How would you respond to that?
Dr. Mantey: The Jehovah's Witnesses (JWs) have forgotten entirely what the order of the sentence indicates -- that the "Logos" has the same substance, nature, or essence as the Father. To indicate that Jesus was just "a god," the JWs would have to use a completely different construction in the Greek.
Dr. Martin: You once had a little difference of opinion with the Watchtower about this and wrote them a letter. What was their response to your letter?
Dr. Mantey: Well, as a backdrop, I was disturbed because they had misquoted me in support of their translation. I called their attention to the fact that the whole body of the New Testament was against their view. Throughout the New Testament, Jesus is glorified and magnified -- yet here they were denigrating Him and making Him into a little god of a pagan concept.
Dr. Martin: What was their response to what you said?
Dr. Mantey: They said I could have my opinion and they would retain theirs. What I wrote didn't phase them a bit.
Dr. Martin: I don't know whether you're aware of it, but there is not a single Greek scholar in the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. I did everything I could to find out the names of the translating committee of the NWT, and the Watchtower wouldn't tell me a thing. Finally, an ex-JW who knew the committee members personally told me who they were, and the men on that committee could not read New Testament Greek; nor could they read Hebrew; nor did they have any knowledge of systematic theology -- except what they had learned from the Watchtower. Only one of them had been to college, and he had dropped out after a year. He briefly studied the biblical languages while there.
Dr. Mantey: He was born in Greece, wasn't he?
Dr. Martin: Yes, he read modern Greek, and I met him when I visited the Watchtower. I asked him to read John 1:1 in the Greek and then said, "How would you translate it?" He said: "Well, 'the word was a god.'" I said: "What is the subject of the sentence?" He just looked at me. So I repeated, "What is the subject of the sentence?" He didn't know. This was the only person in the Watchtower to read Greek and he didn't know the subject of the sentence in John 1:1. And these were the people who wrote back to you and said their opinion was as good as yours.
Dr. Mantey: That's right.
Dr. Martin: Often we find JW publications quoting scholars. Do they quote these people in context?
Dr. Mantey: No. They use this device to fool people into thinking that scholars agree with the JWs. Out of all the Greek professors, grammarians, and commentators they have quoted, only one (a Unitarian) agreed that "the word was a god."
Dr. Martin: You have been quoted as saying that the translators of the NWT are "diabolical deceivers."
Dr. Mantey: Yes. The translation is deceptive, and I believe it's a terrible thing for a person to be deceived and go into eternity lost, forever lost because somebody deliberately misled him by distorting the Scripture!
Dr. Martin: What would you say to a JW who was looking for the truth?
Dr. Mantey: I would advise him to get a translation other than the NWT, because ninety-nine percent of the scholars of the world who know Greek and who have helped translate the Bible are in disagreement with the JWs. People who are looking for the truth ought to know what the majority of the scholars really believe. They should not allow themselves to be misled by the JWs and end up in hell.

Reincarnation and the Bible
by Dr. Walter Martin
From the From The Founder column of the Christian Research Newsletter, Volume 3: Number 4, 1990.
One of the key teachings of the New Age movement is the doctrine of reincarnation. The latest survey on reincarnation indicates that more than 58 percent of Americans polled either definitely believe in it or believe it to be a distinct possibility.
The New Age movement relies heavily on the concept of "cyclic rebirth" operating according to the "law of karma" (i.e., what you sow, you reap in identical proportions). Justice is satisfied in that no matter how long it takes and how many successive reincarnations are necessary, a person keeps on paying for his misdeeds until his "bad karma has been balanced by good karma."
New Testament passages are often cited by New Agers to substantiate the doctrine of reincarnation. Let us briefly examine three of these:
"And if you are willing to accept it, he [John the Baptist] is the Elijah who was to come" (Matt. 11:7-14, NIV). Reincarnationists claim Jesus was stating here that John the Baptist was a reincarnation of the prophet Elijah.
Christian Response: This argument can be diffused by simply pointing out that the role or ministry of John the Baptist was "in the spirit and power" of Elijah's ministry (Luke 1:17). The text nowhere states that John the Baptist was literally Elijah reincarnated. The fact is that when John the Baptist was asked whether he was Elijah, he flatly denied it (John 1:21). Jesus was simply stating that John the Baptist was fulfilling functionally and prophetically the ministry of Elijah as the "voice of the one crying in the wilderness."
"Jesus declared, 'I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again" (John 3:3). Reincarnationists argue that Jesus was referring to cyclic rebirth when He said that one must be born again.
Christian Response: The context of John 3:1-12 is clearly speaking of spiritual rebirth, not physical rebirth. Jesus made this very point in verse six when He said, "Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit." Furthermore, the phrase "born again" is often translated "born from above," keeping true to the original language. Implicit in this statement is the biblical doctrine of regeneration or conversion, an event that takes place only once and has nothing remotely to do with cyclic rebirth. Peter states the same thought when he wrote: "For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God" (1 Pet. 1:23).
"As [Jesus] went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, 'Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?'" (John 9:1-2). Reincarnationists argue that this proves the disciples believed in karma and reincarnation: this man was born blind because of wrongdoing he had committed in his previous life.
Christian Response: Whatever the disciples believed (and there are several possibilities), Jesus did not endorse it: "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life" (John 9:3). Had this been a situation involving reincarnation and karma, Jesus clearly would not have said what He did.
I believe that the doctrine of reincarnation is a subtle and masked attack against the salvation that Jesus Christ purchased at the Cross. Scripture tells us that "by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy" (Heb. 10:14). The writer of Hebrews does not fail to remind us repeatedly that Christ "by himself purged our sins, [and] sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high" (1:3).
As for a so-called "second chance," Hebrews tells us that "it is appointed for men to die once [Greek: "once for all"] and after this comes judgment" (9:27). Scripture tells us that we are appointed to die "once," but the reincarnationist in his teaching is appointed to die almost endlessly, and in the end to no avail. How true the words of Scripture ring: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith -- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -- not by works, so that no one can boast" (Eph. 2:8-9).
These words were adapted from Dr. Martin's book, The New Age Cult. It is available from CRI for $5.95.
Confronting Doctrinal Error
by Dr. Walter Martin
From the From The Founder column of the Christian Research Newsletter, Volume 3: Number 5, 1990.
In the course of delivering numerous lectures on the cults and their relationship to the Christian church, one of the most frequent questions addressed to me has been, "Why should Christians oppose and criticize the beliefs of others -- whether they be cults or other world religions?"
To answer this question, we must first recognize that to oppose and criticize is neither unethical, bigoted, or un-Christian; rather, it is the epitome of proper Christian conduct where a very vital part of the Christian witness is concerned. Some people feel it is beneath their dignity to engage in criticism of the beliefs of others, and the society in which we live has done much to foster this attitude. "Live and let live" is the motto of our civilization; don't buck the tide of uncritical tolerance, or, as the saying goes, "bend with the wind or be broken."
We must remember, however, that controversy in itself has always been a stimulus to thought, and in our own great country has provoked many needed reforms in numerous instances. Moreover, the criticism of another's religious beliefs does not necessarily postulate personal antagonism toward those who entertain such beliefs. Hence, it is possible for a Protestant to criticize Roman Catholicism or Judaism, for example, without being in the least antagonistic to members of either faith.
Let us not forget that honest criticism and debate involves the basic right of freedom of speech within constitutional limits; and the New Testament itself reflects in a startling way the fact that Christianity was built and nourished upon the controversy which it provoked. It was said of the early Christians that they "turned the world upside down" (Acts 17:6); indeed, the message of the Cross itself is offensive and controversial by nature. Robert Ingersoll, the late great agnostic and renowned antagonist of Christianity, was wise enough to recognize this fact and stated in his famous lectures, "If this religion is true, then there is only one Savior, only one narrow path to life. Christianity cannot live in peace with any other religion."
There are many reasons why Christians should speak out against false beliefs. First and foremost is the historical fact that Jesus Christ and His apostles warned repeatedly of the danger of false prophets and teachers. And just as Jesus and the apostles constantly spoke out against religious error to protect the church from peril, so must Christians today.
Throughout His entire ministry, our Lord was constantly on guard against professional interrogators who masqueraded as religious, pious, and even tolerant zealots, and who professed that they were the descendants of Abraham -- heirs to the covenant and the servants of God. To these people our Lord addressed His most scathing denunciations, calling them among other things "whited sepulchres," "children of the devil," "dishonorers of God," "liars," "murderers," and "wolves."
Using language similar to our Lord, the apostle Paul warned against the same kind of people, calling them ""enemies of the cross of Christ" (Phil. 3:18). He describes these dangerous individuals as "false apostles and deceitful workers transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ" (2 Cor. 11:13).
For Christians to neglect such heretical individuals and not challenge their teachings head-on is to do so at the peril of the church. The warnings Christ and His apostles have given in Scripture represent a call for Christians to act -- a call to confront doctrinal error wherever and whenever it surfaces.
Unpopular though it may be, all true Christians should be unequivocally committed to challenging false teachers for no other reason than out of respect for our Lord. Certainly if our mothers, wives, children, or country were attacked and misrepresented, our love for them would compel us to defend them. How much more, then, should love for our Redeemer so motivate us in the defense of Him and His gospel.

Subject: Kalnitz (or Kalnitzky, or Kalnitzkij)
Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2001 23:47:28 EST
I am looking for verification of the birthplace of my grandfather whose name
was Asher Zelik Kalnitz (or Kalnitzky, or Kalnitzkij). According to his
Declaration of Intentions for Citizenship, his birthplace was listed as
Bucharest, Roumania. As I am finding out, this is not necessarily so. I
assume he left Europe sometime in 1922 with his wife, Bertha, arrived in
Havana and then on to Key West, Florida on the SS Cuba. His father's name
was Moshe. In all likelihood, he probably lived in some town near
Bucharest, which is what I need to positively verify. Other towns that may
be of some consequence to my family origins are Illintsy, Chatin (or
Khotin), Kiev, and Jashkov. These towns are listed on my father's and
uncle's Declaration for Intentions.
Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Mahmoud Darwish
Mahmoud Darwish Poems
I Come From There
I come from there and I have memories
Born as mortals are, I have a mother
And a house with many windows,
I have brothers, friends,
And a prison cell with a cold window.
Mine is the wave, snatched by sea-gulls,
I have my own view,
And an extra blade of grass.
Mine is the moon at the far edge of the words,
And the bounty of birds,
And the immortal olive tree.
I walked this land before the swords
Turned its living body into a laden table.
I come from there. I render the sky unto her mother
When the sky weeps for her mother.
And I weep ...
Under Siege
Here on the slopes of hills, facing the dusk and the cannon of time
Close to the gardens of broken shadows,
We do what prisoners do,
And what the jobless do:
We cultivate hope.
A country preparing for dawn. We grow less intelligent
For we closely watch the hour of victory:

The 'Kourtney and Kim Take New York' star shares her outlook for the New Year as she bade goodbye to 2011, which saw her divorcing husband of 72 days, Kris Humphries, in Las Vegas.
Kim Kardashian welcomes the New Year with a positive attitude. Having had her lows in 2011 with the filing of divorce from husband Kris Humphries after only 72 days of marriage, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star is looking forward to "moving forward and not looking back."
Met at Tao Nightclub in Las Vegas on New Year's Eve, the 31-year-old told Us Weekly, "I think a good lesson I learned about myself is to always follow your heart, and I think I'll never stop doing that." She added, "[I'm looking forward to] just having a really good 2012 and soaking in all the lessons learned in 2011. That's it. Simple."
During the chat, the younger sister of Kourtney Kardashian opened up that she "moved into [her] mom's house [in L.A]" after she filed for divorce from Kris on October 31. She further explained, "I didn't wear a stitch of makeup. I really enjoyed that. But, it's fun to get all dressed up and glommed up again for tonight."
On Sunday, January 1, Kim took to Twitter to share her thought over the New Year. "Who else is soooo ready to let go of 2011 and have the best 2012 ever!" she first tweeted. She the added, "Funny how people look 4 a fresh start in the New Year but the truth is its just an excuse! U can start fresh & set goals any day of the year."

With the recent acquisition of travel search site Kayak, Priceline (NASDAQ: PCLN) seems set to cement its ongoing dominance of the online travel agency market sector. In the wake of the acquisition, many analysts have upgraded Priceline stock to a buy. Should you follow their recommendations and add Priceline to your portfolio?
Kayak and the US Travel Market
In its 2012 annual report, Priceline confirmed its market dominance by reporting revenues of $5.26 billion, which was higher than the combined revenues of the other nine companies in its industry group, which include Expedia (NASDAQ: EXPE) and Orbitz (NYSE: OWW). Despite this, however, Priceline ironically lags behind competitor Expedia in the US market, where it has a market share of 43% compared with Priceline's 11%. Kayak is expected to help Priceline bridge this gap by improving its competitiveness in a number of ways.
Kayak is a meta-search engine that collates results from several search engines. This unique service has helped generate vigorous growth for the company, which grew at an annual compound growth rate of 47% from 2007 to 2012. For Priceline, the value of Kayak is that it allows users to more easily compare quotes for flights, hotel rentals and other travel services and packages by providing them with a broader range of results. Kayak would help drive more traffic to its various sites. In addition, Kayak would provide Priceline with an extra revenue stream in the form of paid search and advertising. Currently, Priceline does not earn much from online advertising, but this is expected to change with its acquisition of Kayak, since the meta-search engine earns some 50% of its revenues from advertising.
Kayak is also seen to help increase Priceline's mobile user base. Mobile represents an important source of potential revenues since an increasing number of travelers perform online transactions and get their travel information through mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones rather than from desktop computers. Kayak reported that its mobile app was downloaded over three million times in the third quarter of 2012, nearly double the number of downloads reported in the same quarter last year.
Growth from Overseas Markets
Even if it fails to get more market share in the US, there is still plenty of room for Priceline to grow in the European and Asia-Pacific regions, since its focus has traditionally been in overseas markets. Its acquisition of Agoda in 2007 has helped increase its profile in the Asia-Pacific travel market, since the site focuses on hotels and travel services in the region. According to research company PhoCusWright, the Asia-Pacific market will remain the fastest growing travel region in the world in 2013, driven by surging consumer travel demand in China that is seen to make it the world's largest travel market, overtaking Japan.
But it is in the European market where Priceline enjoys the greatest success. As part of its efforts to expand its operations in the region, Priceline acquired Booking.com in 2005. Europe is seen to enjoy some of the biggest growth in global online travel sales, with sales seen to increase from $141 billion in 2012 to a projected $176 billion by 2016. The share of online sales to total travel sales in Europe is also seen to increase from 45% in 2012 to 50% by 2016. This growth provides a great opportunity for Priceline to further increase its market share in the region, particularly since Booking.com has only 6% of the European hotel market, while 60% of total room nights booked by Priceline come from European customers. In addition, after a period of economic uncertainty in the region fueled by the debt crisis, the economy is seen to have stabilized and more Europeans may be making travel plans again.
Its strong overseas performance helped boost its first quarter 2013 earnings report past analysts' forecasts. Revenues increased by 26% during the quarter to $1.3 billion, just past forecasts of $1.28 billion. However, in its guidance for the second quarter, Priceline said that it anticipates slower revenue growth of 15% to 22% due to economic uncertainty in some overseas markets as well as more intense competition in the online travel agency sector. Competitor Expedia announced in December 2012 that it was acquiring Trivago, one of the leading meta-search engines for European hotel bookings, in an attempt to increase its market share in the region.
The Bottom Line
There's really no reason not to add Priceline stock to your portfolio, since the company has demonstrated solid growth prospects. Its only weakness is that demand for its services is dependent on external economic conditions, which makes it vulnerable to market changes. In addition, it has to face off challenges from competitors who also want to score market share in overseas markets where Priceline is strong. But its market dominance should not only allow it to withstand competition but also survive adverse market conditions. In addition, it does not pay any dividends, allowing it to retain earnings to finance further expansion. Its share prices are also up by 25% over the past year.

Having just returned from a hectic week at World Travel Market in London, I'm now off to South Africa for a month-long overland trip through Namibia, Botswana and Zambia. I've long dreamt of traveling overland in this part of Africa – sand boarding in the oldest desert in the world, drifting along the Okavango Delta, watching wildlife in Kruger National Park….and now I'm about to experience it for myself.
My first stop will be Cape Town, the cosmopolitan hub of South Africa. I've heard plenty of good stuff about Cape Town: the majestic Table Mountain that overlooks the city, the miles of windswept beaches lining the coast and the vibrant street culture of City Bowl. As a guest of South Africa Tourism, I'll be visiting tons of places in and around Cape Town – Cape of Good Hope, Wineland and Boulder Beach – as well as having some time to explore on my own in a week. So If you're in the area, be sure to hit me up – I'd love to see the city from a local point of view!
While Cape Town promises to blow my mind away, I'm also really looking forward to traveling in the backcountry of South Africa and the surrounding region. From Cape Town, my journey continues on an overland tour with G Adventures, heading up north and crossing the border into the deserts. This will be my second trip with them as their Wanderer in Residence (if you haven't checked out my WiR profile on G Adventures, head on there now!). The Dunes, Deltas and Falls tour (DCF) is described as the ultimate expedition into southwestern Africa.
Over the next four weeks, I'll be experiencing game drives in the national parks, climbing the world's highest sand dunes, camping under baobab trees, witnessing the grandeur of the Victoria Falls and canoeing on game-rich deltas in Botswana. Our group will be traveling on an overland truck and camping out in the wild which will definitely bring us closer to wildlife. As you may have already know by now, I'm a huge wildlife buff (with wildlife being a big part of my travels) – so rest assured I've got all my camera lenses and binoculars geared up for this trip.
That's not the end. I'll be continuing on from Livingstone, Zambia back into South Africa through many of the world's most renown game reserves, including Chobe River, Kruger National Park, Nata and Polokwane Game Reserve. The Victoria Falls to Johannesburg Overland trip (DLLJ) takes me back in the reverse direction, but this time through the eastern edge of Botswana and northeastern corner of South Africa. My trip will end in Johannesburg, visiting the Apartheid Museum and spending some time with a friend in Pretoria. I'm rather sure this second section of my journey would show me a different side to the region and I can't wait to be surprised!
While it's not my first time in Africa, this region is definitely new to me – and with all that adventure, wildlife and nature packed into one, this is definitely a dream trip for me. I'll be updating on Twitter and Facebook and I'll try my best to blog during the way (internet permitting), but no fret, my new editorial assistant Shauntelle, will be sharing her travel tales in the meantime! Stay tuned for it!
This experience is made possible by G Adventures as a part of their Wanderers In Residence program. All opinions expressed here are entirely my own. Read more about my travels in Southern Africa here or follow me on Twitter with the #gadv and #WJAfrica hashtags.

What happens when the mighty US aircraft carrier 'Nimitz' is carried through a timewarp to find itself off Pearl Harbor minutes before the Japs attack in 1941? An idea worthy of Harlan Ellison, but disappointingly fumbled. Taylor handles most of the aircraft carrier material like a recruiting film, and though the script manages a few deft twists and turns, and even a neat final frisson, it ultimately works more on the tease level of a TV episode than as a movie. Sheen's performance, as always, is engagingly low-key.

I was really disappointed. I love science fiction, especially time travel, but this film was terribly poor. It moved with the speed of a tortoise, the script was bad and the acting excrutiating. It was a shame because it was an interesting concept and in different hands it could've really sparkled. Everything was so muted and slow, and Kirk Douglas in particular acted badly, as if he wasn't comfortable in the role he was in. There also seemed little point in the story, and it fizzled out as dissapointingly as it began. For science fiction fans, this is a definite no-no. The only people who might be interested are those like military scenes about ships and planes.

Knowledge Points "Affordable Tutoring"
Education is an under-appreciated privilege. It is neither a punishment nor a job.
Jill Braun, Director of Learning at Knowledge Points Affordable Tutoring' has been an educator for more than four years. She is excited about the new summer learning programs available at her Cedar Mill office in the Triangle Center behind the Dairy Queen on Saltzman Road.
" The Beaverton School District doesn't have a summer learning program this year," she said "and we're filling in that void with our programs." The current reading and math tutoring afternoon schedule will continue with an additional morning schedule, the Summer Advantage program.
The twelve-week Summer Advantage program (6/16/04-9/3/04) is being offered to all grade levels and is the most intensive session. Each student will receive instruction for a designated one-hour session per subject (math or/and reading) Monday through Friday between 9 am and 12 am. The eight-week Summer Advantage Program (6/16/04 – 8/6/04) will keep your student learning with time for a break before the regular school year begins. The four-week Summer Advantage program, (8/9/04 - 9/3/04) allows even more time for summer activities.
If you register before May 31st, you will receive a free diagnostic assessment. Several financial assistance programs are available to those that qualify.
Braun decided to become a part of the one-on-one program when she was a classroom teacher. She found that she was unable to take the time in a full classroom to help individual students catch up. "It was so troubling to watch them fall behind and not be able to do much about it," she said.
W. Berry Fowler, former CEO and founder of the Sylvan Learning Centers® has come forward once again to bring tutoring to the average student at prices many will be able to afford. Everyone associated with Knowledge Points ™ Affordable Tutoring ™ is dedicated to getting students on track and helping them stay there. Their mission and contagious enthusiasm can be summed up in one word "Commitment" and this shows in the smiling faces of their students.
A good education helps your students reach their full potential in school and in life. The truly wise never stop learning. Stop in at #485 and see for yourself. The center is clean and organized but friendly and cheerful with each student being very important. What more could you ask?

1 John 5:2 says, "This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands."
Notice the word of God tells us to first of all love God and also carry out his commands. During the summer months of 2010, the Baptist churches in Owen County surely showed their love for God and his children; and by doing this they also followed his commands. Almost 100 percent of the Baptist churches collected school supplies for the Owen County Schools.
My name is Patty Barnes and I have been on dialysis for almost a year.
Three times a week I travel to northern Kentucky to receive dialysis treatment. I also see Dr. Mital, a kidney specialist in northern Kentucky.
If the dialysis clinic had opened here in Owenton, I could see him more, instead of traveling.
I'd like to take a moment to say thank you to those who have been taking the time and energy to pick up trash along the roads in Owen County. I've seen them a few times on my way to Frankfort and I saw a group working on the Sparta Road the other day. It surely does make a difference when people care enough to keep our county clean.
It would be wonderful if people wouldn't throw the trash out in the first place, but thank goodness there are those willing to pick it up. Your efforts are appreciated. If I were able, I would help you myself.
For 37 years, I have made Owen County my home. It is a home by choice, having decided all those years ago to leave the home of my childhood and the home of my young adult life. From New York to Owen County – followed by many instances of having to address the question posed by all of my family and each of my friends in the North, "Why Kentucky?" And from my new-found friends and neighbors in Kentucky the question, "Why here, why Owen County?"
"Everyone has a story to tell, and everyone can learn from the stories of others. These stories, taken together, are the stories of our communities, our counties, our regions, and unique Kentucky culture and heritage."
– The Kentucky Humanities Council
A wise man once uttered four words that have changed my life. While talking to him about his life and the successes he had enjoyed, he offered me some marital advice that I try and live by. Notice I said "try." He said, Brian, if you want to find happiness then you need to remember this phrase: "Happy wife, happy life."eeBefore I go any further let me just say, I love you, honey. eeSaturday night was my 20-year class reunion from Campbell County High School.
Edith Rose Stewart was born on Dec. 14, 1923. She was raised on a farm on Stewart's Ridge Road in Owen County with her parents and nine siblings.
I would like to commend the Owen County Board of Education in its choice for interim superintendent for Owen County Schools.
In the course of my tenure at Grant County Schools, Mr. Don Martin was an exceptional superintendent for that school district.

Bosch is looking to change that with its new OSC114C Carbide Multi-Tool Blade, which is designed to last 30 times longer than standard bi-metal blades. The durable carbide teeth can cut through fiberboard, cement board, sheet metal, and pipe. They can also handle nail-riddled wood, so you won't have to toss blades every time you brush up against hidden fasteners. Price: $22. COO: Switzerland. 877.267.2499. boschtools.com.
