Baltimore County Police have charged Damon King, 20, of the 1700 block of North Fulton Avenue, 21217, and Malik Smith, 17, of the 300 block of North Gay Street, 21202, with an armed robbery that occurred at Towson Town Center on November 22.
During the robbery, one of the suspects dropped a cell phone. When police recovered and analyzed the phone, they were able to identify Malik Smith as the owner of the phone. Detectives were then able to identify the second suspect as Damon King. The gun used in the incident was found to be a BB gun.
Both suspects were indicted on December 16 and are currently being held without bail at the Baltimore County Detention Center. The photo on the top is Malik Smith and the photo on the bottom is Damon King.
Previously released:
Baltimore County Police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred on November 22 at 4:04 p.m. at Towson Town Center.
Preliminary investigation shows that the victim was in the men's bathroom, near the food court, when two male suspects displayed a knife and demanded his money and cell phone. The victim complied, and then chased the suspects through the food court and into the third floor of the mall.
The victim caught up with one of the suspects and pinned him against the wall outside the Call It Spring store. A plainclothes security guard responded to assist the victim, and the second suspect returned to assist the first suspect. A physical struggle followed, and one of the suspects displayed a handgun. Both suspects fled, using an exit near the Littman jewelry store.
The victim was not injured.
The suspects are black males, 18 to 20 years old, with medium builds. One was wearing a black baseball cap, backwards; and a black Polo jacket with Polo horse insignia. The other was wearing a black leather jacket, dark jeans and dark hoodie.

The legal fight over the Obama health care law is over -- for now -- but the political battle goes on.
Perhaps for years, almost surely throughout this election year.
Now that the Supreme Court has upheld President Obama's health care law, Mitt Romney and the Republicans plan to make repeal of the law a major part of their election platform.
President Obama and his team plan to stress previously uninsured people who benefit from the law.
"These are real human stories," Obama political adviser David Axelrod said on MSNBC's Morning Joe.
In an e-mail to supporters, Obama campaign manager Jim Messina said health care has been "a three-step process: 1. Pass historic health care reform. Check. 2. Get affirmation from the highest court in the country. Check.
"Step three? Win the damn election."
Obama and supporters note that the law's key feature -- the individual mandate, the requirement that people buy insurance or pay a fine -- has been backed in the past by prominent Republicans, including Mitt Romney when he was governor of Massachusetts.
Even so, Romney said the high court decision makes repeal of the law a top priority.
"If we want good jobs and a bright economic future for ourselves and for our kids, we must replace Obamacare,' Romney said. "That is my mission, that is our work, and I'm asking the people of America to join me."
Romney certainly has the money to make the case. As our On Politics blog notes, he raised $4 million in the hours after the Supreme Court ruling.
It should be noted that repeal will be difficult at best -- and impossible in the short term.
Though the Republican-run House plans a repeal vote this month, Democrats run the Senate and will not take it up.
After the November elections, the GOP will have to capture 60 Senate seats in order to block any potential Democratic filibusters -- very difficult.
Yet House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., also appearing on MSNBC, noted that Senate Democrats passed the health care law through a special process known as reconciliation; the same tactic could be applied to repeal, Cantor said.
"This is a pyrrhic victory for the president," Cantor said.
David's journalism career spans three decades, including coverage of five presidential elections, the Oklahoma City bombing, the 2000 Florida presidential recount and the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He has covered the White House for USA TODAY since 2005. His interests include history, politics, books, movies and college football -- not necessarily in that order. More about David

Martin Luther King Jr.
Martin Luther King was a well-known leader of non-violent and successful movement for equalization of colored people with the white people. Like Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela he fought against global segregation. He reached the introduction of the civil rights and created a foundation against the racism. But however he could not eliminate the racism in the USA and change the bad living conditions of the blacks.
The situation of the blacks at the beginning of the 20th century:
The blacks
-had no voting rights
-could not live everywhere, only in certain districts
-were not allowed to use the same public toilets like the white people, they were separated
-could not eat at the same counter in a restaurant
-were not allowed to marry a white person (legal prohibition)
-had separate schools than the white people
Michael King, later Martin Luther King Jr. was born on January the 15th in Atlanta (Georgia). His mother was Alberta King (1904 - 1974), a teacher and his father Michael King Sen. (1899 - 1984) was a reverend of a Baptist Church. He also had two sisters. Because Michael King Sen. admired Martin Luther he renamed himself and his son in Martin Luther King Sen. and Martin Luther King Jr..
Education of M. L. King:
When King Jr. was 17 years old he became a preacher in the church of his father in Atlanta, Georgia. At the same time he visited the Morehouse College there, the only College for blacks in the South. For studying theology he went to the Crozer Theological Seminary in Chester (Pennsylvania). He worried not to fulfil the standards of the white people, that's why he learned intensively and became the best of his grade. Martin read a lot about Mahatma Gandhi, whose non-violent behaviour impressed and coined him for life. In 1951 he graduated with Bachelor of Divinity. Later he wrote the doctoral thesis on the Harvard University in Boston (Massachusetts). After his studies on the New England College he became a doctor of theology.
On June the 18th King married Coretta Scott in Marion (Alabama). They got four children.
In September King moved to Montgomery (Alabama), for preaching in the Dexter Avenue Baptist church, where he got a community. Already in his childhood King had to suffer as well as all black people under the racism. That was the reason why King created a committee for political and social problems in his church .He advertised for the entry in organizations like the Montgomery Improvement Association as well. It was an association for civil rights and against segregation.
Desegregation in buses
A black woman was founded guilty, because she refused to leave her seat for a white person. It followed the founding of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. It was a movement for the non-violent resistance against discrimination and racism. King was appointed as its chairmen one month later. This organization requested for the boycott of the public means of transport. The blacks locked the streets and demonstrated. The will was interspersed by passive resistance. The boycott lasted about one year and the bus company lost two third of their turnover. King participated in demonstrations and protest actions. Finally the US Supreme Court explained the segregation for unconstitutional and ruled the desegregation.
The first success gave King a sense of achievement, so he left Montgomery for concentrating on the penetration of the interests of blacks.
King met with president John F. Kennedy to receive support for the civil rights of blacks. The president made a legislative proposal. Kennedy always sympathised the intentions of King.
At the beginning of the sixties there were a lot of demonstrations for the civil rights in towns like New York, Rochester, Philadelphia and Birmingham. Because the government was against the movement, the police did anything to prevent it, even to avoid violence.
Demonstration in Birmingham
In May in Birmingham (Alabama) was one of the hardest encounter between demonstrators and police. The demonstration was prevented by police dogs and water-cannons. But the non-violent method of Martin Luther King proved to be effective.
The actions of King caused a flurry of excitement. More and more black citizens followed King. Numerous donations were carried out for further actions. The highest donated sum amounted to 10,000 dollar.
March on Washington
On August the 28th there was the biggest demonstration for civil rights. About 250,000 civil rights activists participate in the famous "March on Washington". At the Lincoln Memorial King held the famous "I Have A Dream"-speech. In it he wished equal civil rights for everybody and a peaceful life for white and black people together.
Martin Luther King was marked as the person of the year 1963.
Declaration of the Civil Right Act
In June the American senate and the following president Lynd...

the taste of memory
March 13th, 2013
Years ago when we lived in Ottawa, there was a coffee shop in the Glebe that served this amazing sunflower-seed hummus and cucumber sandwich on triangle-shaped multigrain bread. I wasn't a super-adventurous eater back then, so I'm not sure what exactly prompted me to try this sandwich in the first place. Maybe a friend recommended it to me when we went there for lunch, and I wanted to look cool? I don't know. Whatever the reason, it immediately became one of my favorite foods.
Sadly, I probably only ate three or four of those sandwiches before the coffee shop closed. Shortly after that, the Navy decided they needed Troy elsewhere and we left Canada. I tried many times to recreate that sandwich at home but could never quite do it, even though I already had a go-to hummus recipe. Eventually I gave up, deciding that maybe it was the bread, or the ambiance of the place, or the company in which I ate it that made the sandwich so tasty.
Today as I was scooping some hummus onto a plate for Elliora's lunch, that sandwich popped into my head for the first time in probably a decade. Thinking, Eh, what the heck, I threw a quarter-cup of the Trader Joe's hummus in the food processor with a quarter-cup of sunflower seeds and some toasted flaxseed because it happened to be sitting next to the sunflower seeds in my fridge. I added a squeeze of lemon juice and whizzed it all together as best I could, scraping the sides of the processor bowl a couple of times to make sure it all got mixed in. Then I spread that on toasted multigrain bread and topped it with a few spinach leaves because I don't have any cucumbers at the moment.
The first bite had me laughing, because it tasted EXACTLY like I remember the original sandwich tasting. Which seems ridiculous, right? The original recipe included cucumber slices, not spinach leaves; and I'm pretty sure flaxseed wasn't involved (although who knows, maybe it was). What are the odds that I would off-handedly, randomly create an accurate replica of something I haven't eaten since last century, when all my previous attempts at the time failed? So I'm thinking one of two things happened here: either I really did manage to fairly accurately recreate that sandwich, or it's been so long since I ate it that my taste buds were fooled by a good-enough facsimile.
Either way, I don't really care. I'm happy to have a delicious new sandwich filling—one that has the power to transport me to Bank Street in 1999, sitting in a cafe that doesn't exist anymore, watching the rain through the windows and thinking about that cool kitchen gadget at the Glebe Emporium I wish was within my budget.

That sounds quite delicious. It's a crime that there aren't Trader Joes in Canada.
I really shouldn't read your blog while I'm hungry.
Come and make me a snack.
I agree… it sounds delicious! I need to go to Trader Joe's now! :-)
Congrats on finding the elusive sandwich! :-)
Some people are smell-remembers. Some people are object-rememberers or sound-rememberers. I'm a taste-rememberer. Foods are associated so strongly with memories and feelings in my mind. For me, it's the California burrito from a tiny hole-in-the-wall taco shop called Rico's in San Diego. Luckily, it's still there so I get my fix at Christmas time… but I know I could never replicate that. It tastes like high school summers on the way to the beach.
I love taste/smell memories. I'm glad you were able to recreate it. It sounds really good, I'll have to try this.
I get it…happens to me frequently! I'm all about taste AND scent memories. SO glad you found the solution; especially since the place closed down.
I have two recipes I would LOVE to recreate, but have had no luck. "Key West Mahi-Mahi" from a defunct restaurant in Apollo Beach, Fl – it had this lemon-y caper sauce that was truly incredible.
…and these dumplings from a Dim Sum restaurant in Oakland where the dough on the outside was probably a rice dough, but it had a perfect balance of savoury/sweet and the pork filling was to die for….not sure if they are still open or not – used to have to drive around the block waiting for 'our person' in line to make their way up and around the block to even get in the door to place an order. Yep. The restaurant was THAT good.
I might have to try your concoction…I LOVE a good hummus! …and cucumbers….and sunflower seeds. I could take or leave the flax.
I can't remember if I knew you lived in Ottawa. Either way I'm glad you found your sandwich!
Wow! It's kinda like reading a NEW blog post from one of your favorite bloggers who never blogs anymore! You take me back! Just kidding. I love this post. :)
Get some cucumbers and you'll know for certain, right?! :)
How lovely to have such a fond memory of Ottawa, I wish I could think if what is there now instead of the coffee shop, I think it is a children's store :(

Dear Colleagues in PAP,
After meeting with the PRB of Psychology, here is an initial update for you:
1. The PRC is not yet accepting applications for Registration as Psychometrician and/or Psychologist without examination. The system for Pre-Screening Online applications is still being put into place. The earliest possible time this will happen is in early February 2013. We will immediately inform you once this link has been set up by PRC.
2. The first board examination for Licensure as Psychometrician and/or Psychologist will be in the last quarter of 2013 (or no earlier than October 2013). Application to take the examination is one month before the date of the examination. We will immediately inform you once the date for the examination is set by PRC.
3. Please read the IRR and once you determine that you qualify for registration without examination (for psychometrician and/or psychologist), go to the nearest PRC office and pay P900 for each profession as application fee for pre-screening. Be sure to get an official receipt; you will need to indicate the OR number when you apply online as well as indicate what you are applying for: psychometrician or psychologist.
4. Within 8 days after you apply for Pre-Screening online, you will be told whether or not you may submit your documents--by courier or by delivery to the PRC. You will be informed whether or not you are licensed within 30 days after receipt of your documents by PRC and then you pay a fee of P1,050 to register as licensed psychometrician/psychologist.
5. All pre-screening applications must be made online. However, I must remind you that the online system is not yet operational until next month.
The Online Pre-Screening application is just a short form intended to determine whether or not you qualify to apply for registration. What you can do at this time until the online system is in place is to put together all of your documents. You have until May 21, 2015 to apply for registration without examination. Please ensure, however, that you must have completed the minimum requirements (e.g., degree and experience) prior to enactment of the law on June 2, 2010).
The PAP is organizing a series of Briefings regarding the procedure for application in NCR and other places in the country this month and in February. We are also working on FAQs that will be made available in the PAP website soon.
In behalf of PAP President Gina Hechanova, I wish you all the best.
Margaret Helen Udarbe-Alvarez, PhD
External Relations Officer, PAP
Chair, PAP RA 10029 Committee
Dear Colleagues, Members, and Friends of PAP:
In behalf of PAP President Dr. Gina Hechanova, it is our pleasure to announce that today, January 8, 2013, is the designated date of effectivity of the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) just released to the PAP by the Professional Regulatory Board (PRB) of Psychology for posting and dissemination to its membership. For inquiries on the Psychology Law and its implementation, please go to the office of the PRB of Psychology located at the PRC, Manila.
We much appreciate your help in disseminating the IRR to as many of our colleagues as possible. Soon, PAP will organize meetings so that the PRB of Psychology may also inform all of us on the details of implementation and schedule of the first board examinations.
Margaret Helen Udarbe-Alvarez, PhD

PCBs in Sewer Systems Bring New Regulations
COLUMBIA, S.C. (SCRN/WVOC) - State health officials have announced new restrictions after a sixth wastewater treatment plant detected a hazardous material in its system.
The South Carolina Radio Network reports that Department of Health and Environmental Control officials suspect someone, or multiple people, are dumping PCBs into sewer systems.
The chemicals are an industrial coolant banned by Congress over 30 years ago because of its link to cancer.
The material was first found in five wastewater plants around Spartanburg last month.
But now, it's also been discovered in a restaurant grease trap in the Columbia area.
While health officials say the treated water is safe to drink, they're worried about the material left behind in what's known as "sludge." That sludge is often used as fertilizer by farmers.
The new regulations would not allow any sludge with PCBs to be used for that purpose or stored in landfills.

The pharaoh's relatives were buried in small flat tombs around the pyramid.
The pyramid with sloping sides was developed to recreate the mound that came out of the ground at the beginning of time. Egyptians thought that this was where the sun god stood and brought all gods and goddesses into existence.
Inscriptions of spells were used to help the Pharaoh in the afterlife.

For The Week Of May 3-10, 2010
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
When it comes to love, you can't think with boundaries. Sharing is caring and if you want it to go to the next step, you're going to have to open yourself up more and give, no matter how scary it might feel. Sometimes placing the bets without caring about the odds is the only way you can play to win.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Boink this week away. It's your best time to reignite the sparks with your baby. No matter what your schedule is, clear it. Now is when the hot bed of starry action will be shining down upon you. Trust this little foray into XXX-ville will be so hot it'll leave you feeling so sexy. Nothing else could compare in confidence-boosting energy.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Trying to be perfect to impress that certain someone will go awry this week, as no one can keep up that kind of façade too long. Plus, it's just not sexy. So, as things falls apart, putting you into a disturbed state of mind, don't get caught up in trying to paint on a happy face. Just go with it. Right now it's showing your vulnerabilities that'll make so-and-so hot for you.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Get ready for several rounds of petty arguments and little annoyances that'll make you want to slam-dunk your honey into the garbage disposal and hit mince. To say the least, power struggles will be running rampant, throwing you two on the opposite ends of logic. Thankfully, these will all be small and ridiculous fights but nonetheless aggravating, so prepare!
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
What goes up will go down, as in your week will start off high and end up low — but not necessarily low in a bad way. You'll just feel wiped and ready to veg. Whatever the case may be, feel free to take some couch potato time with the one you love. Those daily routines this week will be your most romantic.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Domestic issues hit a whole new level, as this week it'll be about organizing and getting priorities in order, as in getting both of you pulling equal weight or reconsidering what to do next. Seems the crossroads you hit won't be so easy to solve, as really being honest with yourself and emotions now will be hard to run from.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Communications are going to be messy. So don't expect to hear anything back quickly and especially don't say anything that you aren't 100 percent certain about. There might be no way to avoid mishaps, but there is a way to deter them from going to the extremes. If anything, do play nice all week as best you can.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Self-doubt plagues everyone, but it doesn't have to be a bad thing. Take this time to look at all your plans and seal them from leaking into failure, by reworking the details. As it goes, a gal like you needs reminders to slow down every so often, and this week, if you do try to go too fast, you will only find dead ends.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
You have arms and legs. It's time to use them! Who cares if there is confusion in the air that isn't going away easily? As long as you physically get yourself moving and put the analyzing on the backburner, all will be fine. Yes, hit the town! Dance till dawn! Once you get some festivity into your bones, you'll be better tuned into the invincibleness in you.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
The past will try to come back to haunt you, but you don't have to take it lying down. You've been through enough to know that whatever resurfaces no longer has a power over you and you don't owe it anything. As it goes, you're free – free to love and free to hate whom you want. If it's the latter, well, time to school them that karma is a bitch.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
If you're not OK with the condescending comments someone is spewing at you, don't shrug them off. The bitchiness is there and there is no reason you need to take it. Call the shots, because if you try to sweep this under the rug, it'll only make you seethe more and kill your buzz, which is the one thing you feel you have going for you right now.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Just as you feel you are taking three steps forward, something will happen to make you feel like you are taking two steps back. But don't fret! You aren't; it's all a state of mind. Let things sink in before making your judgments, because not all will be quite as it seems. In the end it will work out in your favor.

Correction: Upon further review, we realize this is almost certainly a Dodge Challenger, not a Chevy Camaro.
There will be no confusing Morris Claiborne's parents in Shreveport, La., for the next few years.
Word is that the Dallas Cowboys rookie cornerback bought his parents a custom-made Cowboys car, complete with his name, number and Dallas star. Busted Coverage posted a picture of the vehicle (we think it's a Camaro but wouldn't testify to it) on Thursday. If it doesn't belong to Claiborne's parents, someone in his hometown really, really loves the former LSU star.
It's hard to look at this car and not wonder what might have been if Claiborne had come around 10 years earlier. With the limiting rookie salary structure and the current state of the American economy, a Camaro is a reasonable purchase. In 2002? Shoot, this would have been a Bentley with paint made of silver and sapphires driven by an actual cowboy in a 10-gallon hat.

polish rabbit
The body is to be small, compact, and close coupled with well rounded hips that are wider than the shoulders. The body top line should rise gradually from the nape of neck to its highest point at the center of the hips and then fall in a smooth curve to the base of the tail. The fur is short, fine, and dense with a flyback coat. The head is medium full and short, with full cheeks. When viewed from the side, there should be a slight curve in the skull from the base of the ears toward the nose, with a slight roundness between the eyes.

After a global competition, Polish-American architect Daniel Libeskind unveiled his master plan for the rebirth of ground zero.
From his college days in the U.S. to a diabolical suicide-bomber recruiter, who is the man known as the architect of al Qaeda?
He fired the architect, who also sued him for defamation, and the jail was built for $32 million, saving the county $14 million.
She let the museum pick the architect; she let the museum do the work.
Then again, he has a few things in common with the man President Bush called "The architect."
His banker's accounts, his architect's estimates, his solicitor's statements, were all brought forward and discussed.
There can be no duty to pay until the architect is satisfied.
We imagined that the architect of this house had received a similar order.
On one of the stones of the house, he read the words: "Destange, architect, 1874."
Have you ideas on the subject of architecture that you so desire to become an architect?

Increasing concern is being expressed within the academy
and the user community about a perceived dwindling of capacity to undertake
rigorous empirical research in law. While a generation of skilled research
scholars is approaching retirement age, there is little evidence that the
following generations are equipped to take its place. This decline in capacity
is happening at a time when there are excellent opportunities to enhance
understanding of legal phenomena by building on foundational empirical work
completed over the last twenty years, and when the demand for empirical research
to inform and evaluate policy is actually growing.
Questions about 'capacity' in empirical
legal studies are not new. Nor is the Nuffield Foundation's engagement
with this issue. In 1971 the Foundation was concerned enough to set up its
own Legal Advice Research Unit, which eventually led to the formation of
the Legal Action Group. At the same time, it launched a scheme of Social
Science Fellowships for Law Teachers, so that university teachers of law
could spend a year working in a social science department on a socio-legal
research project. In the first year, there were no applicants and the scheme
seems to have closed after a few years.
In 1994 the ESRC commissioned a Review
of Socio-Legal studies after the decision to end core funding of the Oxford
Socio-Legal Centre. In its Conclusion the
Review of Socio-Legal Studies noted that "There is a shortage of staff
within law departments to provide training in socio-legal research, and social
science departments do not have legally trained academics who can assist
in developing an interest in, and knowledge about, law as a focus for research
The most recent Annual Conference of the Socio-Legal
Studies Association in 2003 was attended by 370 UK academics, 87% of whom
were based in law departments. Of the 327 academics listed in the SLSA Directory,
only 57 could be said to include funded empirical inquiry in their profile
and 26 of these were located in departments other than law (principally criminology,
sociology, social policy, politics and government). This picture of relatively
low levels of empirical activity among legal academics is also supported
by ESRC information on applications for research funding and supported posts
where the number of applications has remained consistently low.
The concern about capacity to conduct empirical legal
research goes well beyond the need and interests of academic practitioners
and users. Rigorous empirical research of law and the institutions of law
as they operate is needed to underpin many areas of legal policy. An obvious
example is the public funding of legal services. The Nuffield Foundation
funded much of the work that looked at the first round of changes to the
public funding of legal services, but there is little capacity to take a
broader look at areas that seem to be causing specific problems in the delivery
of legal services, including public family law. Another area in urgent need
of an empirical evidence base is the proposed radical change to the system
of tribunals in England and Wales, predicated on many assumptions about the
needs of tribunal users and the public more generally. The system of tribunals
produces judicial decisions in over 1 million cases annually, frequently
touching the lives of some of the most disadvantaged groups in society. Empirical
research evidence on tribunals is patchy and some of it quite old, and yet
recently there has been difficulty in finding skilled researchers with the
time to undertake such research. More generally government is making increasing
use of law to regulate economic, social and family relationships and processes,
and yet we have remarkably little empirical evidence about what types of
regulation may work in what circumstance or how regulatory control could
be improved. Regulation affects areas such as school decisions, planning,
regulation of services and so on. The fundamental point is that while law
is an increasingly important feature of modern life, it seems that we have
a decreasing capacity to keep it under policy-relevant empirical examination.
Although the problem of under-capacity to undertake
high quality empirical research is not confined to the discipline of law,
there are probably unique factors in the legal field that need to be understood
and addressed by a specific strategy rather than via a more generic approach
as envisaged, for example, in the current ESRC research methods programme.
This inquiry will bring together parts of the academy,
professions and users of research to examine this important issue and identify
the ways in which it may be possible to work together to improve the situation
in the future. The Inquiry will:
The Inquiry Approach
The Inquiry will be guided by a distinguished Advisory
To achieve the objectives of the Inquiry a number of
activities will be undertaken over a one-year period, including: v Publication
of a consultation document to be widely distributed within the academy and
among relevant users inviting written responses.

According to Sunil Jagarlamudi:
> I am using xpdf and pdftotext to index the files, and I have noticed that
> htdig ignores the numbers in it's db.wordlist and also when I try to search
> for something like 078-001, it comes back with nothing found for
> 078001. I tried to do the search in quotes as well, but to no avail. Is there
> anyway we can let htdig keep an index of the numbers in the files as well and
> also numbers with - and _ with them ?
If you're using parse_doc.pl as an external parser for application/pdf files
(it uses pdftotext to convert the PDF files), you'll need to remove or
comment out this line (about line # 138):
s/[\-\255]/ /g; # replace hyphens with space
Then, as Geoff suggested, you'll need to set the allow_numbers and
extra_word_characters attributes in your htdig.conf file. You'll need to
reindex after that. The extra_word_characters attribute was introduced
in 3.1.2.
Underscore characters shouldn't pose a problem in any case.
The hyphens within numbers could pose further problem for you if, in
the PDF files, there are line breaks at the hypens, like this: 078-
001. There's code in parse_doc.pl to dehyphenate words, but not to
rejoin hyphenated numbers. You'd need to modify the code to handle
these, if it turns out to be a problem for you. Of course, for numbers,
you'd need to keep the hyphen in when you rejoing them.

Dear Friends,
My hunch is Dave Evett is correct in that the servant said to have been "bred" by Cornwall is his illegitimate son. Lear is a play about thankless, rebellious, dangerous children. But it is also about misbegetting, and the nice differences between natural and unnatural children both by order of law and behavior. Shakespeare begins his play with Kent's stating that Lear can't tell his sons-in-law apart, which the Duke follows immediately by asking Gloucester "Is not this your son, my lord?" Shakespeare couldn't be more clear about this governing idea of the play if he were president of the local chapter of Planned Parenthood. In another play, "bred" could allow for various interpretations; not in this one.
Nice catch, Dave.
Hope this helps.

It's Cornwall's servant, of course, who has served him ever since he was a child. And, Hardy, you're supposed to protect us from ourselves when we make this kind of mistake.

Comment: SHK 21.0093 Query: Gloucester's Servant
I haven't seen him called a biological son anywhere, but I don't think that the specific sense of "sexually bred" is necessary to draw the parallel that you rightly see. As a lord and head of household, Cornwall is ideologically, if not biologically, the father of his servant. The servant's rebellion against his legal lord and father is thus an ironic contrast to Edmund's rebellion against his natural (but not legal) father.

Bye Bye Paula; Surprise Kimora! Gamble & Huff keep winning
Patty TV is now on Instagram! You can follow me at wdaspatty and on Twitter @mspattyjackson and Facebook at Patty Jackson-WDASFM.
I Am Not Giving Up On My Family! Singer Robin Thicke says he is willing to change his ways after his wife, Actress Paula Patton, announced that she wanted out of their 10-year marriage. Thicke and Patton were high school sweethearts, and now have a three-year old son, Julian. What happened to make Patton want out?!!! The past year has been amazing for Thicke. He hit number 1 with the release of Blurred Lines and finally achieved the fame he always wanted. But, with the fame, along came the women and Patton had had enough of his cheating. Thicke realized his wife was serious, and now he is begging her to change her mind. He is still going ahead with his U.S. Tour, but he is vowing to stay away from the clubs and the groupies.
American Idol is losing money! Back in the day, the reality show used to make millions and stayed TV's number one show 8 seasons' straight. Now, with low ratings, the ad dollars are not coming in as before. The budget is also hurting the show. Judge Jennifer Lopez and Host Ryan Seacrest make $15 million each. The studio spends $5 million on viewer phone calls, and the show is still paying two executive producers who were fired. Ratings for American Idol are down 26 percent. Sources say the show will not be cancelled by FOX, but there may be another shakeup with the judges. Jennifer Lopez has just signed a deal with NBC to star in a new cop drama Shades Of Blue, and she may step aside from Idol for that show. Since Lopez returned to Idol, it hasn't made the big impact producers hoped.
Kimora Lee Simmons keeps man! The fashion model and ex-wife of Rap Impresario Russell Simmons has nabbed husband number two a rich investment banker named Tim Leissner. This makes Simmons the latest celeb to get in on the secret wedding craze. In between her marriages to Tim and Russell, Kimora had a son child with Actor Djimon Hounsou. She also has two daughters with Russell.
Shonda Rhimes (Grey's Anatomy, Scandal) is creating another show with Actress Viola Davis. Davis, best known for her Oscar-nominated work in the movie The Help and for the film Doubt, will be starring in the new Rhimes' TV drama How To Get Away With Murder. The show is a sexy, suspenseful- legal thriller.
Tony Award Winner Audra McDonald (Private Practice) is returning to Broadway in a musical based on the life of Billie Holiday.
More changes are coming to Dancing With The Stars. First there's a new band leader in the form of Ray Chew replacing Harold Wheeler and his 28-member band, and now a new co-host has been named. FOX Sports Reporter Erin Andrews is replacing Brooke Burke-Charvet. Andrews was a contestant on Dancing With The Stars during season 10. Do you think they will ever shake up the judges? In other Dancing With The Stars news, I hear NeNe Leakes from The Real Housewives Of Atlanta is joining the new season. Can she dance, or will she try to fight the other contestants like she does on her reality show. Leakes keeps a hustle going now that her sitcom The New Normal was cancelled and her FOX Show Glee is in its last season. Leakes has grown tired of The Real Housewives Of Atlanta, but she likes the money and the lifestyle she is living. Season 18 of Dancing With The Stars kicks off March 17th.
Congrats to Singer/Songwriter Ray Parker, Jr. who is getting a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.

Terrence Howard, fresh off The Best Man Holiday, and Taraji P. Henson, fresh off Person Of Interest, are returning to TV in the FOX series Empire. Director Lee Daniels is producing this hip hop drama, which debuts in the fall.
The Lifetime movie A Trip to Bountiful will air on the Lifetime channel Saturday, March 8th. The movie is based on the Broadway play, which nabbed Cicely Tyson a Tony Award. Tyson will star in the movie version with Blair Underwood, Vanessa Williams and Keke Palmer.
Spike Lee says he has completed a script for a sequel to School Daze. The original movie came out 26 years ago and starred Tisha Campbell-Martin, Kadeem Hardison, Jasmine Guy, Darryl M. Bell, Samuel L. Jackson, Giancarlo Esposito and Lawrence Fisburne. Lee is trying to get Fishbure to reprise his character "Dap" Dunlap in the sequel.
The CNN network has pulled the plug on the Piers Morgan nightly talk show. Morgan was brought in to replace TV Legend Larry King, but his ratings never lived up to King's.
Congrats to NBC's Tamron Hall because it's official! She has been named as a new anchor for the 9pm hour of The Today Show. Hall will be joining Willie Geist, Natalie Morales and Al Roker during that segment as well as continue as host of News Nation on MSNBC at its new time 11am. I am so proud of Tamron.

She says they are selling out their father's legacy, and she won't help them by turning over valuable King items. The brothers say they have lucrative offers for their late father's Nobel Peace Prize and Dr. King's traveling bible. President Obama used that same bible to take his oath for his second inauguration and signed it. A judge ordered Bernice to turn the items over for safe keeping until a judgment is reached. The brothers were left control of the estate.

I'm having a consultation for Invisalign in a few weeks for overcrowding, but 6 teeth extracted earlier in the year and wondered whether I would be a candidate for Invisalign at all due to missing teeth.
I had the top left, top right & bottom left wisdom teeth out, along with the 2nd molar on top left, also 1st & 2nd molars on top right. The overcrowding is both lateral incisors on top row are jutting outward and right central incisor is aimed backwards in the slightest fraction. lateral & central incisors on bottom row overcrowded.

RUGBY: THURROCK's fourth string beat May & Baker 41-12 at the weekend.
T's started strongly and soon scored through club stalwart Steve Bridger, with a pick and drive over from some way out. Next on the score sheet was Danny Holding, after taking the ball just outside the May 22 and weaving himself over.
Both tries were converted by Joel Dailey, giving the fourth string a 14-0 lead at half time.
Thurrock's first team coaches, Jamie Daisley (number 10), and Butch Wilkins (flanker) enjoyed a game for the fourths.
A few changes were made at half time to give everyone a game before Christmas.
However, May came back immediately at the start of the second half, attacking through their forwards and bursting over under the posts.
Then the T's scored again, with centre Paul Stone gaining his debut try out wide. Returnee Aaron Woodward, back after an injury, scored two quick breakaway tries.
He was replaced by Anthony Stevenson and Kev Polley came in from the wing to make his debut in the back row.
But May battled hard and their backs and forwards linking well to score wide out via their winger.
They put the Thurrock team on the back foot.
The last try went to Dean Monk who burst through a maul to score under the posts. Thurrock coaches were pleased to see Paul Stone, Wes Shaw and Ash Bodimeade join the fourths squad.
The next game for Thurrock's fourths is at a home fixture against Westcliff on January 5th 5.

Cuomo planting the seeds of change in Buffalo
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has a lot in common with the mythical Johnny Appleseed.
The governor stopped in Buffalo on Wednesday to plant eight more seeds in his quest to rebuild the Buffalo Niagara economy, announcing the first eight companies picked to be part of the state's Start-Up NY tax-free zones for new businesses.
That came on the heels of the announcement earlier this week that 2,600 entrepreneurs had survived the first cut in the state's $5 million business plan competition, aimed at luring 11 fledgling companies to the region in a bid to make the region a more innovative place and more appealing to people with a promising idea for a new venture.
And it came as the state gave a powerful boost to help revive the sagging Key Center, with the announcement that IBM Corp. will bring 500 jobs to an office building that largely would have been vacant a year from now, when Delaware North Cos. moves to its new, taxpayer-subsidized headquarters a few blocks away.
It's all part of the evolution of the governor's Buffalo Billion economic development plan, which is picking up steam as its key elements move from the idea stage to the early stages of reality.
From big-ticket projects, like the $225 million RiverBend clean energy and technology hub, which is expected to see a groundbreaking in the coming weeks, to the small pieces, like the $5 million 43North business plan competition slated to choose its winners in late October, the Buffalo Billion initiatives are gaining a momentum all their own.
"All of the planets are lining up really well," said Buffalo Mayor Byron W. Brown. "We're seeing those seeds grow tremendously and quickly."
That's important, because the Buffalo Billion is based on a broad-based plan that doesn't focus on just one company or a single key industry. It's backing initiatives in a handful of key sectors, from advanced manufacturing and information technology, to clean energy and medical genomics.
"This is a different Buffalo," Cuomo said.
"We're finding new business lines," he said. "This is not going to be, Are we going to make Buffalo what it was? This is about, Are we going to make Buffalo better than it ever was before?"
The common thread among the ventures is a focus on up-and-coming parts of the economy that are expected to grow rapidly.
"These are attempts to put a stake in the ground on next-generation jobs and reposition Western New York," said Howard Zemsky, the co-chairman of the Western New York Regional Economic Development Council.
And the governor is casting his net fairly wide. Some of the seeds are bound to take root and grow. But others may wither. That's why you want to plant a lot of seeds, and different types of seeds, too.
"For a community to grow in a healthy way, you want economic diversity," Brown said. "You don't want to put all of your seeds in one basket."
Half of the first wave of Start-Up NY companies are in biotechnology. The other half are in information technology. Together, they are promising to bring 204 jobs to the Buffalo Niagara region.
The initiatives also are bringing in seeds from far beyond Western New York. One of the companies coming to Buffalo through the Start-Up NY program is from Utah. Another is from Florida, and a third, Aesku NY, is coming from Germany with promises to create 50 jobs here. The Start-Up NY program exempts eligible companies with ties to the state's universities from state taxes over a 10-year period, while employees don't have to pay state income taxes on their pay.
"Without Start-Up NY, we might not be here," said Vijay Kumar, an associate research professor in UB's department of microbiology and dermatology who also serves as an Aesku vice president. "Start-Up NY sealed the deal for us."
More than 90 percent of the entrepreneurs who submitted applications to the 43North business plan competition came from outside Western New York. Results like that are helping to change the image of Buffalo Niagara as a depressed, Rust Belt region beset with high taxes and a generally nasty business climate.
"Between the 43North program and Start-Up NY, people are looking at the region," said Marnie LaVigne, the University at Buffalo's associate vice president for economic development
"It really is about showing people that this is a different place when it comes to doing business," said Andrew Pulkrabek, 43North's executive director.
If enough of the seeds take hold, the Start-Up NY program and the state's other initiatives could be a game changer for the region, said Satish Tripathi, the UB president who is the other co-chairman of the regional development council.
"It has all kinds of implications. It really has an impact that's not just directly creating jobs, but on the quality of life," he said. "Our graduates can actually can remain here. The city's economy improves so you can attract other people as well."
After a half century of decline, that would be a welcome change.
