Hometown heroes have always been honored with monuments; from Hannibal, Missouri's Mark Twain Museum to Cleveland's memorial to President Garfield, from Atchison, Kansas' Amelia Earhart museum, to Concord, Ohio's John Glenn historic site. Pity Houston! Which scion of our fair burg will rise up from the shackles of obscurity to clasp the liberty of immortality that only a dedicated monument can bring?
Beyoncé Knowles, that's who, at least according to two men who skyped with Fox 26 and are expecting the Mayor to endorse their plans any day now. Steve White and Marcus Mitchell of Armdeonce Ventures say they want to honor the newly minted musical mother with a "statue or museum." According to Mitchell,
""Our biggest thing is a lot of people get honored when they die, so our goal is to why not honor people why they're still here? We felt as though it's her time to be honored. We wanted to construct, like, a massive hall so as the doors open, if you donated to the monument, you'll have a separate nameplate."
Armdeonce Ventures has offices in Baltimore, Washington D.C. and Houston according to it's website. The Beyoncé Monument is the only project currently listed on the site.

Corporan helps Astros drub Pettitte's Yankees
Catcher enjoys career night with four RBIs to back Harrell
NEW YORK -- If you thought the young Astros were going to be intimidated by facing the mighty Yankees under the bright lights of Yankee Stadium, then you should have been in the visitors' clubhouse about three hours prior to the game.
With salsa music blaring, teammates Marwin Gonzalez, Jose Altuve and Ronny Cedeno were playfully dancing in the middle of the floor and were obviously not starstruck by their surroundings. And the good times didn't stop when they took the field.
The Astros played one of their most inspired and complete games of the season on Monday night, getting a solid outing from starter Lucas Harrell and cranking out 17 hits to snap a nine-game road losing streak with a resounding 9-1 win over the Yankees.
"Just because it's Yankee Stadium, we can't get too hyped up or think we have to do too much," said outfielder Brandon Barnes, who set career highs with three hits and three RBIs. "Lucas just started to roll and pitched a great game and kept us in the game early. Guys were swinging the bats tonight."
Harrell won his third consecutive start, holding the Yankees to one run and eight hits in 6 1/3 innings to improve to 3-2. His batterymate, catcher Carlos Corporan, had a career night, going 4-for-5 with a career-best four RBIs, including a two-run homer.
"It definitely feels good," Harrell said. "We've got a group of guys in here working hard and trying to get better every day. We have some quality baseball players in here and we've been struggling a little bit, but the big key is we keep working hard. The guys hit the ball really well and took a lot of pressure off me."
Coming off a four-game sweep at Fenway Park, the Astros beat the Yankees for only the second time in 10 all-time meetings. On Monday, they scored one run fewer than they did in the entire Boston series.
"I keep telling those guys, 'It's a long season,'" Astros manager Bo Porter said. "Baseball is not a sport that you want to hold your head down. That's the reason why God put a good night's sleep in between two bad days. You have to come back the next day, hold your head high, have a smile on your face and be ready to go."
Corporan and Barnes led the way offensively, but Altuve (2-for-6), Brandon Laird (2-for-5), Chris Carter (2-for-5) and Carlos Pena (2-for-5) joined the fun. Houston was 6-for-14 with runners in scoring position.
Harrell (3-2) had his good sinker working and was in sync with Corporan, inducing three ground-ball double plays in the first four innings that kept his pitch count low and allowed him to work deep into the game.
"I've been working on trying to get more ground balls and inducing early contact, and Cedeno and Altuve and [third baseman Matt] Dominguez, they all played great defense behind me," Harrell said. "It makes it easy for me when you know you can get a ground ball and those guys are turning double plays."
Andy Pettitte (3-2), making only his second career start against his former team, was tagged for seven runs and 10 hits in 4 1/3 innings. He recorded two outs to start the game before Laird, Carter and Pena had consecutive singles, with Pena driving in the first run.
Corporan's two-run double into the right-field corner made it 3-0, and Barnes added a two-run double to left in the fifth that stretched the lead to 5-0. Houston batted around in the fifth to take a 9-0 lead, including a two-run homer by Corporan off reliever Adam Warren.
"We've been playing well," Pettitte said, "and to come out here and give up those five runs that early in the game and feel like we don't have a chance to get back in it and not give us a chance to win, it makes me sick to my stomach. You want to give your team a chance to win, and I didn't do that. That's all I try to do when I go out there, and it usually works out pretty good. It was a very frustrating night for me."
Corporan, who had his left leg wrapped postgame because of a cramp, smiled from ear to ear while talking about his career night.
"It's special," Corporan said. "It's my first time here. Growing up watching this field, this is amazing. I'm just happy because I did something good to help my team win a ballgame and start something good. Maybe we'll start a win streak. Hopefully, we can take advantage of this and keep going."

UF women's basketball to play in WNIT
Published: Monday, March 18, 2013 at 11:49 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, March 18, 2013 at 11:49 p.m.
The Florida women's basketball team will compete in the postseason Women's National Invitation Tournament after earning an at-large berth into the 64-team field Monday evening.
The Gators (18-14) play Florida International (19-12) in the first round on Thursday in Miami, with the start time and ticket information to be announced today.
Monday's announcement placed Florida in a postseason tournament for the 19th time in the last 21 years, including all six seasons under coach Amanda Butler, who became the first-ever Gator coach to guide the program to a postseason appearance in each of their first four years.
Florida, which will be making its 20th postseason appearance in program history, will be appearing in the WNIT for the seventh time since the event's inception in 1998, competing in 2000, 2005, 2008, 2010 and 2011.

THOUSANDS of patients in Ilkley and Keighley waited at least a week to see a GP the last time they tried, according to an official NHS survey.
Across the Airedale, Whardale and Craven clinical commissioning group area, more than 17,800 they had faced a wait of seven days or more when they phoned for an appointment in the last year, according to a NHS England CCG Report.
The annual NHS England survey, released earlier this month, also revealed that local patients struggle to see the family doctor of their choosing.
Across Airedale, Wharfdale and Craven, nearly half of patients - 47 per cent or 39,223 people - who have a preferred GP had to see another doctor when they last went to their surgery.
The statistics have been highlighted by Labour candidate for the Keighley constituency, John Grogan.
And across the Bradford District as a whole Across Bradford as a whole, this applied to 133,519 patients, or 50.6 percent.
The delays meant 10,225 local people saying they would not recommend their family's practice to new patients.
Mr Grogan said: "The Government has made it harder for people in Keighley and Ilkley to get a GP appointment - I am afraid I don't think they can be trusted with our local NHS.
"Within days of the last election they scrapped Labour's appointments guarantee and now thousands of people here are waiting over a week. Labour will scrap the NHS market and invest the savings in helping people get a GP appointment within 48 hours or on the same day for those who need it."
Labour Shadow Health Secretary, Andy Burnham, waits for GP are pushing patients into hospital accident and emergency departments.
"This survey confirms what Labour has been saying," said Mr Burnham.
"People want to be able to see the GP they trust, and who knows their family history, but are left phoning the surgery day after day only to be disappointed."
But regional NHS bosses say more than three quarters of patients in the Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven area rated their GP experience as good.
A spokesman for NHS England (West Yorkshire) said:"NHS England in West Yorkshire, is committed to ensuring patients have access to high quality, timely patient care and GP practices in the region continue to work hard to ensure their patients are seen in appropriate timescales.
"In the latest GP Patient Survey results 88 percent of patients in Airedale, Wharfdale and Craven said their overall experience of GP services was good."

Sydenham Garnets 6, Tor 36
GARNETS started off strong in their first quarter with a young team.
With a few players out of position, Garnets began to mould together as the game progressed.
Good attack made the game play look strong.
However, a few mistakes gave Tor the possession and they began to take the lead.
In the second half of the game, Garnets play improved massively, with many interceptions and tips from the defence.
With strong defence in the third quarter, Garnets came out fighting but solid defence from Tor prevented Garnets from getting the ball into the D.
In the last quarter, both attack and defence performed well but couldn't gain the lead.
Credit to both teams for playing in difficult conditions on a slippery court.
Players and umpires vote went to Tilly Milburn (GD) which was well deserved.
Sapphires 46, Abbey 38
SAPPHIRES played Abbey from Tor – and made a strong start in the first quarter, taking a 14-10 lead with excellent feeding into the circle from Kelly Thorne and Katie Ball.
A relaxed Sapphires allowed Abbey to equal the score in the second quarter so, after a strong half-time talk, Sapphires began the third quarter with a new hunger, and great continuous interceptions from Beth Fella, and excellent defending from Carly Martin who kept the opposition's WA out of the game.
Jess Knott, filling in at GK, put the pressure on in the circle and turned over a lot of ball.
Sapphires finished the third quarter with a 38-26 lead.
A more effective final quarter with excellent team work from all, and accurate shooting and rebounds from Lynne Cornish and Paige Pople took Sapphires to a 46-38 win, with Beth Fella deserving the player-of-the-match vote.

Game 1 – Brown (2-21, 0-7 Ivy)
WP: Alexis Borden (4-8), 5.0 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 8 K
LP: Jessica Cherness (1-10), 4.0 IP, 10 H, 8 ER, 1 BB, 2 K
With her second shutout of the season, Borden set the tone early in game one, striking out Brown's lead-off batter, Casey Fisher. The Penn defense went right to work to get the following two outs, allowing the Bears to notch one hit that inning. Brown was only able to record one more hit in the first game which came in the third.
The bats went flying right out of the gate for the Quakers, as lead-off junior tri-captain Sydney Turchin singled to right center which was followed by a bunt single from sophomore Kanani Datan. With the two runners on, senior tri-captain Elysse Gorney took a note out of Turchin's book and placed the ball almost in the exact location, knocking her in for the 1-0 lead. On a groundout from freshman Alexis Sargent, Datan made it home safely for the 2-0 lead.
Borden added two more strikeouts in the next inning to quickly get the Red and Blue bats back at the plate.
With two outs and two on in the bottom of the second, it seemed as if the Quakers has picked a spot out on the field to continuously hit to as Datan added a fourth single to right center which knocked in two runs to extend the Red and Blue's lead to 4-0. (Out of the 10 hits Penn recorded on the day, five of them were singles to right center.)
Penn pulled further away in the bottom of the fourth as the Quakers put up three more runs. With one out, Gorney advanced to third on the throw after she doubled to the wall, totaling 3 RBI that inning and four overall. At the end of the game, she finished with half of the team's runs scored which was the most RBI by a single player in either game.
The Red and Blue defense shut down the Bears for one last time in the top of the fifth as one final run in the bottom half ended the game early.
Just like in the game against Temple, senior Kayla Dahlerbruch put on the finishing touches with a walk-off single to right center, knocking freshman runner Lainey Dorris in to end the game at 8-0.
In game one, Datan went 3-for-3 at the plate, while Dahlerbruch and Gorney were 2-for-3.
Game 2 – Brown (2-22, 0-8 Ivy)
WP: Alexis Sargent (5-3), 6.2 IP, 5 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K
LP: Gina Chiefallo (0-2), 3.0 IP, 6 H, 3 ER, 2 BB, 1 K
Save: Courtney Cuzick (1), 0.1 IP, 0 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 0 K
Freshman Alexis Sargent continued where Borden left off, forcing Brown's first three batters to ground out.
The Red and Blue once again got on the board first, scoring their first three runs of the game on errors made by Brown -- Sydney Turchin came in with the first run after an error at the plate by Bear catcher Alex Scott. With Elysse Gorney on third, freshman Leah Allen doubled up the middle and an error by Bear left fielder Kelsey Williams allowed her and Gorney to score.
It was another quick 1-2-3 top half in the second, but the Bears weren't going down that easy each time. In the third, Brown went on a short stint and recorded two hits in a row with a single up the middle from Julia Schoenewald and a bunt single from Lauren Hanna. Staying calm, Sargent buckled down and got Penn out of its first sticky bind, making the next two batters ground out to end the inning.
In the bottom half of the third, Allen made her way across the plate again for what would ultimately be the winning run of the game. An insurance run was added to the board by Turchin in the bottom of the fourth.
Penn hit cruise control going into the top of the fifth with a 5-0 lead. However, Brown put Sargent in a second sticky situation as the Bears loaded the bases with no outs. Back at the top of the order, the Quakers tallied two outs – a fly out to left field and a pop up to short – but Brown's Christina Andrews was able to capitalize on the opportunity with a single to right field and knocked in the Bear's first two runs. They wouldn't score any more that inning but found their way across the plate one more time in the top of the seventh.
Sargent left the game in the top of seven and was relieved by fellow freshman pitcher Courtney Cuzick with two outs and two on in scoring position. The Bears scored their final run on a passed ball but the Red and Blue defense held them off from scoring anymore and recorded the third out on a fly out to short.
In game two, senior Kayla Dahlerbruch went 2-for3 at the plate, while Allen also went 2-for-3 at the plate and notched 2 RBI. The Quakers' sweep over Brown was their third in a row and their fourth in the past five meetings.
The Red and Blue will be back in action at Penn Park this weekend to open Ivy South Division play with Cornell in a doubleheader on Saturday and Sunday. First pitch for both days is set for 12:30 p.m.

Is there any reason I wouldn't have good BBQ with a smaller cut of brisket? I don't mean the little one pound fully trimmed cut grandma throws in the broiler.
But today at the market they had a cut 2 1/2 pounds and maybe 2.5 inches thick with some fat. Not a full layer of fat, but a decent amount.
Would this be a good starter cut for somebody who grills but is new to the art of BBQ? Anything I shoul dlook for in brisket cuts?

I am desperately seeking good software for creating wireframes and mockups. I'm looking for something that is easy to learn and easy to use, and preferably cheap or free. But I will pay for good software. I was using a trial version of Adobe Fireworks and it is awful. That program was very difficult to learn and use. Adobe Fireworks sucks. That program is pure crap. It costs $300 and Adobe provides no meaningful tutorials to learn the program. I spent many hours (probably about 12 hours over the past few days) trying to learn that thing and finally came to the conclusion it was time to give up. The nicest feature I found was that it creates a separate sublayer for every shape you create, making it easy to move stuff around.
I have not used Photoshop since version 6, which came out in 1999, I believe. I found Photoshop 6 to be a very easy to use program, quite intuitive. Is the current version of Photoshop as easy to use as the old version? Or is it a pain like Fireworks? Sometimes these software companies take something good and change it for the worse in the name of improvement.
I tried using GIMP. GIMP has the worst user interface of any graphics program. You have to constantly hunt around for the toolbox and other windows because they float outside the main program. And scrolling takes forever when you are zoomed in. Heck, you can't even draw a shape in GIMP and the developers are opposed to adding such functionality because GIMP isn't a drawing program, so they say.
I tried Paint.NET. It does not have nearly as many features as GIMP but at least you can draw a rectangle or a circle. The problem is that it isn't that good. Gradients don't look that good and it is not possible to do things like add a shadow to a box unless you go through a whole bunch of work to do it.
So that's where I stand. Each program has some good features and some severe deficiencies. None of them are worth much money for wireframing or mockups, certainly not the $300 Fireworks costs.
I want a program that will enable me to wireframe in minutes. If I need to move something like a menu around, I want it to have its own layer so I can move it. Ideally, the program would have graphics capabilities which would allow me to produce a good looking mockup that can be used to show people what the finished site will look like. With image quality good enough that I could slice out the images in the mockup and use them on the site.
Any suggestions or am I out of luck? Is Photoshop the only choice? Fireworks, GIMP, and Paint.NET are not cutting it for me. If we could take the good features of each program and put them together we could have a winner.
I've always found Fireworks to be a good tool for wireframes, but there is this: http://www.hotgloo.com/ (online app) but it isn't free. There is also: http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnigraffle/ for mac, (also not free and I'm guessing your using Windows)
I installed an old copy of Photoshop 6 I had. The program works great, is easy to use, and functions well on a computer that is a few years old. Fireworks was an absolute pain in the butt.
I could kick myself for not using my old copy of Photoshop for doing wireframes and mockups years ago. For whatever reason, the thought never occurred to me that I could create an image of a site before actually coding it. I used to design a site by coding it from top to bottom. I would update the CSS file to try different colors or different background images, reload the browser, repeat, repeat, repeat, and repeat more until I got something I liked. It was a time consuming process. Now I can try a bunch of different things quickly until I find something I like.
Live and learn.
Balsamiq and GoMockingBird are good.
Mockflow is also a good one.
I have to try this and will be back for a review, thanks for sharing!
Try Balsamiq Studios.Balsamiq Mockups is a graphical user interface mockup builder application. It allows the designer to arrange pre-built widgets using a drag-and-drop WYSIWYG editor. The application is offered in a desktop version as well as a plug-in for Google Drive, Confluence, JIRA, FogBugz and XWiki.
Balsamiq is also our favorite. They can be found at http://www.balsamiq.com/ and is really great to get a concept up quick and easy. The learning curve is quite low and allows us to take design concept parts and paste in and convert to a sketch. It is great for the whole team to view on a big screen for those get together meetings, and also good to corroborate over your team systems.
I am also using hotgloo[dot]com paid tool. I also suggest Cheesedude to use this one.

New instructors join Carroll DMACC faculty
Byline info is not available
October 3, 2013
Three new members have joined the faculty at Carroll's Des Moines Area Community College campus this fall. Jennifer Schulte, Kurt Schmid and Lindsay Simpson will primarily teach business, history and English, respectively.
Schulte is familiar to the staff. She took a few classes in high school, and prior to taking a position as a business administration instructor, she managed the campus bookstore for four years.
"I got to know the students and staff," she said. "I feel like I've got the whole culture down already."
A Carroll native, Schulte received her bachelor's degree in communications and entrepreneurial studies from Iowa State University. She worked as both a recruiter at a staffing agency, handling staff relations and marketing, and in retail management in Ankeny before returning to work in Carroll. Though she believed her future lay in human relations, it was that experience in the DMACC bookstore that led her to return to school and complete her master's degree in business administration at Bellevue University in Nebraska.
"Seeing the students excited about school got me excited to be a part of that life," said Schulte. "I could teach business classes to these students that were so excited to go out and make something of themselves. I knew that would be a better path for myself. I could make an impact."
Simpson comes to Carroll from the Boone and Ankeny DMACC campuses where she worked as an adjunct. Born in San Diego, Calif., she received her bachelor's degree in English from the University of Tennessee and her master's degree in English and composition from the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. Simpson taught in Texas and Virginia before moving to Iowa with her husband, Elias, who is from Ames.
Simpson, who will serve Carroll students as an English instructor, said that she prefers the student focus of the community college to the research focus of a larger university.
"I think there's a real opportunity to serve the under-served. Community college is a place people from all walks of life can go and they bring a greater variety of different experiences than you get at a four-year school," she explained. "I've always wanted to teach, and DMACC is the best of all worlds for me. It's the type of student I love, the focus on teaching, a variety of classes. DMACC is definitely a place to grow."
New to Iowa, Schmid, who will teach both English and history, agreed with his fellow instructors' characterization of Carroll DMACC. From the region around Chicago, Ill., Schmid attended community college before completing his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Illinois at Chicago. A nontraditional student, Schmid was 21 when he started college. When he finished his education, the choice to return to a community college to teach was simple.
"When you like history, there are not a whole lot of real world applications," he said with a laugh. "If you want to work with it all the time, you can teach it. If you look at a division one school, the politics there, it's just about research and that's not what I wanted."
"They encourage our research, but teaching is the focus, it's what we get paid to do," Simpson agreed. "If you want to be a teacher and have a major impact, this is the environment to do it in."
The instructors also agreed that the relationships with students fostered on the small campus is a benefit of the job.
"I can tell when they're getting excited about a concept or material and when my teaching is hitting home," said Schulte. "Whether or not it's affecting their professional or personal lives, I can tell when I'm clicking with them," she finished, adding that she was lucky enough to have several talkative students.
Schmid said that students involved in discussions often give him a new way of approaching a subject, allowing him to learn from them, as well as teach them.
"It sounds cheesy, but you really can touch their lives in different ways," said Simpson. "It's not just about the classroom."
The instructors have a similar goals of expanding their programs and finding ways to make the skills applicable outside the classroom. Schulte hopes to take her students on company tours of local businesses and invite local business leaders into the classroom as guest lecturers, connecting the students further to the community. Schmid and Simpson want to coordinate classes to make the transitions as seamless as possible. Simpson would also like to see and encourage students to study abroad, adding that she hopes to someday lead the DMACC program that takes English students to London for a semester to study 18th and 19th century literature.
"I'd love to figure out ways to do those things," said Simpson, who spent a semester studying abroad in New Zealand while in college. "A lot of students have not had that experience, and should have it, and I think they'd want to have it."
Schmid and Schulte have also spent time abroad. Schmid spent a year teaching in Saudi Arabia and a few months teaching in Thailand before returning to the states to teach in Boston.
He traveled to Saudi Arabia shortly after college, citing it as one of few countries that pays well for little experience. However, it has to pay well to get people to stay, Schmid said, explaining that 40 percent of new teachers leave within the first four months.
"Every day when you wake up you ask, 'Am I going to class, or am I going to the airport?'," he said.
Though he stuck out the year, Schmid said he has no desire to go back.
"About 40 percent of my class was Saudi when I taught in Boston, but you don't get the full picture like you do when you live there," he said of the culture's myriad gender relations and religious issues. "It's fascinating, but so is Hitler."
Thailand, on the other hand, was a lot of fun, he said. Unfortunately, he was actually losing money, and made the decision to return to the U.S.
Schulte had an opportunity to travel to Guatemala for about 10 days after her husband, Rick, made friends with a local surgeon on a mission trip. The native welcomed the couple back to spend time with his family.
"People live in constant fear of their lives," she said, describing a town with all the public buildings guarded by men with guns. Schulte said that she felt secure because she was with the surgeon, but insecure at the same time because even he was concerned about the attention their group garnered. She was told to never go outside alone in the evening, an experience far from life in the rural Midwest.
Shulte currently resides in Westside with her husband and their puggle, Little Bit. Her perfect weekend includes kayaking, biking, fishing and sitting around a campfire.
Simpson resides in Ames with her husband and their two children, Lucia, 2, and Ansel, 7 months. A self-proclaimed "foodie," Simpson enjoys foraging for wild fruit in the city, be it for apples to craft hard cider, or wild blackberries to serve with dinner.
Schmid resides in Carroll. His hobbies include reading, traveling, learning about different cultures, dining out and computer aided building design. He is single.
"And looking?" asked Schulte and Simpson with matching grins.
"And looking," he said with a laugh.
DMACC provost Steve Schulz said that the college's focus this year will continue to be increasing retention and enhancing the student experience, goals to which the Schulte, Simpson and Schmid can contribute much.
"I am very excited about the talent and enthusiasm our new instructors bring," he said. "It is obvious they care deeply about helping our students, and I am looking forward to watching them grow in their careers as college instructors."

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - My father has worked with Jordan Davis' dad, Ron, for the last 10 years. Ron was one of my dad's closest friends at work and has been able to see Jordan grow up.
I have absolutely grown to love the entire Davis family. I didn't know Jordan, but I absolutely adore his dad and stepmother. They are among the people I consider family.
Wednesday night's memorial service for Jordan Davis was, of course, very sad and full of emotion, but the overall tone was not what many expected. There was not a lot of anger, negativity or any harsh words. Instead, the overwhelming feeling and message was that Jordan's death should not be in vain.
Ron Davis is hoping that this tragedy leads to a "butterfly effect." He told me that if he can just influence one person to stop before they pick up a gun in anger, that maybe they will influence the next person. And so on, and so on, and so on.
His goal, though only a few days underway, is to stop gun violence.
Knowing Ron Davis for the last seven years, it was heartbreaking to see him go through something so tragic. He was wearing sunglasses and crying through most of the night. He's been crying since we first talked on the phone early Saturday morning.
He stood during the three-hour viewing, tightly hugging everyone who came to the front of the room to talk to him. On a normal day, he's the kind of man that when he hugs you, it's a "good" hug, that lets you know he's a great guy. You can just imagine how meaningful his hugs were last night at the memorial. I almost didn't want to let go.
Davis' father said Jordan was a typical high school junior who was about to leave his part-time job at Winn-Dixie to work at McDonald's, looking forward to buying his first car and turning 18. He had a "million-dollar smile" and liked music,…
He wants them to use this tragedy for good and to stop violence; not create more. He made T-shirts for the students, and most of them changed into them right there at the funeral home.
There were a lot of strangers at the service who just came to pay their respects to the family. Former Mayor John Peyton came to give his condolences on behalf of the Gate family. It was ironic, though, because he and Jordan's dad had a very special moment where they realized they knew each other from Jacksonville International Airport.
Jordan looked very peaceful, very handsome. Looking at him in the casket it was really hard to believe that he's gone. He's just so young. My dad and I went up together to say our goodbyes.
This is the first time I've been so close to something that's become the "top story" in our city. It was a strange feeling walking outside to see all of the news crews in the parking lot next door. Every station in town was there to cover the service.
Jordan's death is impacting me in ways that are hard to communicate, even though it's my job. It's been with me since I got the call at 4 a.m. last Saturday.
I have always tried to be kind, sympathetic and respectful when covering tragedies like this. Normally, I'm the one standing across the street. After being inside and seeing the pain and anguish, I will be even more so in the future.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will have a Namibian baby
The local governor of Namibia claims Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt told him they will have their baby in Namibia and have considered giving it a Namibian name.
I don't want to sound ignorant, but I have absolutely no idea where Namibia is or what their names are like. In fact, up until three minutes ago when I read the article I didn't even know that Namibia was a real place. They could've called it Narnia and I wouldn't have known the difference. I'm just hoping Africa lives up to my stereotypes and traditional Namibian names consist of clicks and whistles.

New Delhi, Sep 13 (IANS) Tainted cricketer S. Sreesanth said here Friday that he has "never cheated the game" and has "full faith in the Indian cricket board and judiciary" after appearing before the disciplinary committee of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI.
"I have presented my side of the story. I have never cheated the game. I have full faith in the judiciary and the BCCI. Hopefully, I will play for the country again. Since childhood, I have always dreamt of playing for India so I will never cheat the game," Sreesanth told reporters after presenting his case to the panel comprising BCCI president N. Srinivasan and vice-presidents Arun Jaitley and Niranjan Shah.
Asked about a possible ban, the 30-year-old said: "I did not argue my case and they were very cooperative. God willing there will be no ban. A lot has been said about me, but I am hopeful that the BCCI will give me a chance to play again," he added.
The disciplinary panel is to decide the fate of the Rajasthan Royals players -- Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan besides Sreesanth -- caught in the Indian Premier League (IPL) spot fixing scandal. The three might even get life bans as recommended by Ravi Sawani, chief of BCCI's anti-corruption unit in his report submitted to the board last month.
Sawani, a former chief of the International Cricket Council (ICC) anti-corruption unit, was asked to investigate the alleged involvement of the three in conceding a pre-determined number of runs per over in exchange for money during the IPL.
Other Rajasthan Royals cricketers Harmeet Singh and Siddharth Trivedi, who were found guilty by Sawani for not reporting the matter to the BCCI.

What do these have in common: a grand slam home run, a hole-in-one, a pick six, Palmer amaranth? The answer is that they are all game changers. As many Cornbelt farmers harvested their crops this fall and found the tall spindly seed heads of Palmer amaranth, they realized it was too late in 2013 to do anything about it. After all, weed specialists had been urging farmers to carefully cut the weeds, remove them from fields in plastic bags, and burn them. If that did not get accomplished in 2013, what can be done in 2014 to plan for hundreds of thousands more Palmer amaranth in that field which normal weed control may not touch?
"Among the weedy species of Amaranthus, Palmer amaranth has the fastest growth rate and is the most competitive with the crops common to Midwest agronomic cropping systems." That is the assessment of Aaron Hager, University of Illinois Extension weed specialist, who says confirmed reports indicate it will cut soybean yields by nearly 80% and corn yields by over 90%. The weed is originally from the southwestern U.S., but in 1957 weed specialists said he was on a northeastward movement. While it may not be in every county, USDA plant ecologist Adam Davis says, "There are few landscape-level barriers to the establishment of Palmer amaranth populations in Illinois, and that these populations, once established, are competitive with crop species. In other words, these results indicate that it's not a question of if Palmer amaranth will become established in Illinois, but rather when and where it will become established." While his observation follows research in Illinois, the conclusion could be applied to nearly every state.
"So just spray a little glyphosate on it." While that may control some of the plants the first year, it may have little impact the second year, says Hager, "Palmer amaranth can be effectively managed in Illinois agronomic crops, but the greatest likelihood for successful management is with systems that employ multiple effective management tactics. Palmer amaranth is perhaps the personification of a weed species that requires an integrated management approach."
The female plants produce an abundance of seeds, which are spread by birds, furry-footed wild animals, dirt clods on tillage equipment, and particularly by combines. And farmers who operate across wide expansive areas are more likely to quickly spread the seed than those who remain close to home.
So how do you control Palmer amaranth? Hager and other weed specialists recommend some specific precautions where the plants exist:
1. Fields with Palmer amaranth populations should be the last fields harvested this fall and the last fields planted next spring.
2. Mark or flag areas where Palmer amaranth plants have produced seed. These areas should be intensively scouted the following season and an aggressive Palmer amaranth management plan implemented to prevent future seed production.
3. Do not mechanically harvest mature Palmer amaranth plants with crop harvesting equipment. Physically remove the plants immediately prior to harvest and either leave the plants in the field or place in a sturdy garden bag and remove the plants from the field. Bury or burn the bags in a burn barrel as soon as possible.
4. Fields in which Palmer amaranth seeds were produced should NOT be tilled during the fall or following spring. Leaving the seeds near the soil surface increases the opportunities for seed predation by various granivores.
To address the problems for next year, Hager says include soil residual herbicides at the full recommended us rates within 2 weeks of planting, followed by post emergent herbicides before the Palmer amaranth exceed 3 inches tall. And he says a successful long term program will require more than just herbicides. His colleagues at Purdue, Bill Johnson and Travis Legleiter, have produced an 11-page guide to Palmer amaranth which they say will produce 100,000 seeds per plant when competing with a crop, and a half million seeds per plant when not in competition with other plants.
The troubling part about Palmer amaranth is its resistance to herbicides. Johnson and Legleiter say, "Palmer populations have evolved resistance to multiple herbicide modes of action, including ALS inhibitors, triazines, HPPD inhibitors, dinitroanilines, and glyphosate. The majority of populations in the South are ALS-inhibitor- and glyphosate-resistant." Their guide contains formulas for control in both corn and soybeans, but those methods must be carefully followed to achieve success. They say, "Palmer is a very aggressive and adaptive weed, and management programs that rely on a single mode of action (such as glyphosate as the only post herbicide) will typically be ineffective at completely controlling the weed."
Johnson and Legleiter say the key to success is the use of residual herbicides. "Residual herbicides should be the foundation of all Palmer amaranth herbicide control programs in soybean. There are a variety of residual soybean herbicides that will control Palmer amaranth at its weakest point (emergence) and substantially reduce the number of plants requiring a post-emergence application. Using residual herbicides to manage Palmer will reduce the selection pressure of the few post-emergent herbicide options."
Iowa State University weed specialists Bob Hartzler and Mike Owen say Palmer amaranth is just moving into Iowa, but has been confirmed in a number of counties. They stress that you need to properly identify Palmer amaranth from other varieties of amaranth. "Knowing how to differentiate the pigweeds is the key to reducing the likelihood of Palmer amaranth becoming established and spreading throughout Iowa. The easiest way to tell smooth and redroot pigweed from Palmer amaranth and waterhemp is that smooth and redroot pigweeds have hairy stems, whereas both Palmer amaranth and waterhemp have hairless stems."
While that system may seem simple, it is not always simple. Hartzler and Meaghan Bryan offer a guide to help identify Palmer from other varieties of amaranth.
Palmer amaranth can devastate corn and soybean yields if the weed is competing with row crops. Producing hundreds of thousands of seeds per plant, and resistant to multiple herbicide modes of action, Palmer amaranth requires a strategic approach to control. That includes the way fields are cultivated, scouted, and harvested, in addition to a prescribed treatment with residual herbicides along with a post emerge application.

CYPRESS, Texas - A shocking discovery was made outside a house of worship near Cypress in northwest Harris County.
On Tuesday night, several Muslims who came to pray at the Islamic Outreach Center found a dead pig on the outside deck next to the entrance of the center.
"They were surprised. They were taken aback. They never expected to see something like this," said Ilyas Choudry of the Islamic Circle of North America.
At times, a pig has been used symbolically against Muslims because their faith does not permit them to eat pork.
"We can't ignore the fact that there is an element in our society and a lot of anti-Muslim sentiment that actually does play into these types of incidents," said Mustafaa Carroll of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
While they called police, the resident Imam stopped short of publicly calling this a hate crime. He said the dead pig by itself isn't what's most concerning, it's the thought process of the person behind it.
"It's unfortunate that something like this would happen, but at the same time we can use this as a teaching moment to come out an learn about Islam," said Fahad Tasleem with Islamic Outreach Center.
He's not inviting just the neighbors, but also the person who did this. The Muslim faith, he said, is big on forgiveness.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office is investigating. Deputies will continue to gather information before making a determination on the nature of the case.

Marlins win team-record 10th straight Alvarez start
Righty sharp for seven, adds three hits to series-clinching onslaught
ST. LOUIS -- Wins keep piling up for the Marlins when Henderson Alvarez is on the mound. Sunday was no different.
Alvarez gave up one run in seven innings, collected three hits and achieved a piece of club history in Miami's 8-4 win over the Cardinals at Busch Stadium.
After losing 3-2 on Friday, Miami rebounded to claim the series. The Marlins hadn't claimed a series at Busch Stadium since 2009.
The Marlins, meanwhile, have now won a club-record 10 straight games in which Alvarez has started. The previous mark was nine, established by Chris Hammond from May 19-July 2, 1993.
"I've always wanted to be a leader, and all I can do is go out there and give my 100 percent," Alvarez said.
"He is looking to make a statement and go out there," Miami manager Mike Redmond said. "I'd love to see him pitch 200 innings. I hope he makes it. That sends a pretty good message, as a starter, if you can get to that 200-inning mark."
Since Jose Fernandez had season-ending Tommy John surgery in May, Alvarez has assumed the role of ace.
"This is a guy, we love his stuff," Redmond said. "We love the way he competes. He brings a lot to this ballclub. More so now, we're seeing it without Jose. Before, everything was about Jose. Now, we're starting to see some of these guys step forward and get some recognition themselves."
Jarrod Saltalamacchia belted a three-run homer, while Jeff Baker and Marcell Ozuna each drove in two runs.
After giving up one run on five hits, Alvarez has now gone nine straight starts allowing two runs or fewer.
"He's been really consistent," Redmond said. "He's very athletic out there. He gave us everything he had today. Gave us a big win."
Casey McGehee chipped in with two hits and an RBI, extending his career-best hitting streak to 13 games. He's hit safely in 20 consecutive road games and reached base safely in 30 in a row.
Alvarez had an all-around strong afternoon.
At the plate, he chipped in with three singles, becoming the first Miami pitcher to have a three-hit game since Josh Johnson on April 26, 2010, against the Padres.
"I'm just focused on being a pitcher," Alvarez said. "I work hard on both aspects. I work hard on my hitting and pitching. Fortunately for me, I got my three hits today. I was fortunate."
No pitcher in club history has had a four-hit game. Dontrelle Willis had three three-hit games. Overall, five different pitchers have done it seven times.
Running the bases on an 84-degree afternoon eventually wore Alvarez out after seven innings and 92 pitches.
"The first inning I was kind of hot, felt kind of weak," Alvarez said. "As the game went on, I was able to work my pitches, work down in the zone, and I was able to get through it."
The Marlins struck quickly off Cardinals lefty Marco Gonzales. With two outs in the first inning, McGehee's single to center scored Christian Yelich, who singled to open the game.
A three-run sixth inning padded Miami's lead to 4-0. Alvarez got the rally going with a single, and he scored on Ozuna's two-run single. Baker tacked on a run-scoring single.
The lone run Alvarez allowed was a one-out homer to Kolten Wong in the seventh inning.
Saltalamacchia's three-run homer off Jason Motte highlighted a four-run eighth inning.
The way Alvarez has thrown since mid-May, not many -- besides Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers -- have been as effective as the Miami right-hander.
"I'm glad he's on our side," Redmond said. "This guy has been lights-out. I think we all feel so confident when he takes the ball and what he means to this ballclub. You talk about a hot day. We had an advantage. He was pitching, throwing strikes and getting off that field quick. We had some extended innings early. We kept them out there a while, and I think that made a big difference, and maybe we wore them out a little bit."

I made shish kebabs recently and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on things they had done that worked well. I used a marinade that I loved that consisted of worcesteshire, lemon juice, butter, and garlic, but I had a problem with the marinading process. The butter gathered on the top of the marinade and thus pulled itself out. It made a nasty coating and I think it might also have taken away from the flavor. I like the flavor the butter adds, so I am hesitant to use vegetable oil. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how to fix this one or give me a new one. The one in my How to Grill book seems kind of complicated (and expensive ) so I am looking for an easier way.
Also, I am not partial to onions so I was wondering if there were any other vegetables that did well on shish kebabs.

Why I love it: When I need my argan fix on the go and don't want to carry a bottle of oil, Infinity Cream is my go-to cure. It goes on as a cream, melts into an ultra-absorbent oil, and feels like buttah. It conditions my lips for emergency touch-ups, smoothes out rough spots, tames renegade eyebrows, highlights my cheekbones with no fuss, no spills. It's luxury and convenience times infinity.
What's in it: Packed with natural fruit and nut extracts, oils, and butters, my Argan Infinity Cream proves that Mother Nature is the real Ms. Fix It. It's full of 100% Pure Argan Oil in a creamy base infused with shea butter, aloe vera, mango seed butter, and macadamia seed oil for effortless application.
What's not in it: There's an infinite number of things that don't belong in my Infinity Cream. Among them: parabens, artificial fragrances, and chemicals that leave your skin and the planet high and dry.
How I use it: Where do I start? From eyelids to elbows, it saves the day on its own or blended with my other beautifiers. I transform my favorite eye shadow or blush from a powder to a cream by mixing in a little Infinity Cream. It's also great as a primer that makes foundation easier to blend and lipstick stay put. And if I've got a breakout, sunburn, or tightness and redness, it soothes, replenishes and calms like nobody's business.

Division II Standout Transfers to Saint Leo
SAINT LEO, Fla. – Tennis Coach James Bryce has announced the signing of transfer student-athlete Emily Singleton to compete for the women's squad beginning in 2011-12.
Singleton joins Saint Leo via the University of Arkansas Fort Smith where she compiled a singles record of 28-10 and a doubles mark of 29-10.
She is the only signee for the Lions in 2011-12, and joins a relatively young squad who won more matches (15) than any other Lions' women's team since 1980-81.
Emily Singleton
5'8" | Jr.
Manchester, United Kingdom
Wilmslow High School /University of Arkansas Fort Smith
Singleton, a native of England, enjoyed two accolade-filled seasons while at Arkansas Fort Smith. As a freshman, Singleton amassed a 17-6 record competing primarily out of the top flight position. Assembling a record of 12-4 at No.1 singles, she also posted a 5-2 mark at No.2 singles. She equaled the 17-6 mark on the doubles side playing with a variety of partner's throughout the team's 18-5 campaign.
Her efforts on the court allowed her to earn Heartland Conference Academic Student-Athlete of the Week honors as a freshman.
Her sophomore season allowed her to control the No.1 position in nearly every match as she went 11-4 from the top-flight spot. A 12-4 record on the doubles side allowed Singleton to be recognized as one of the top players in the conference. She was named to the All-Heartland Conference Team and was a two-time Heartland Conference Player of the Week this past season.
Prior to her time at UA Fort Smith, Singleton won four consecutive state championships at Wilmslow High School. She was a top-100 player in England and was a quarterfinalist at the British Tournament. She concluded her phenomenal high school career by winning the North of England Championship.
Bryce's Perspective: "Emily will add much needed experience to our lineup for the next two seasons. With two years of DII tennis already under her belt, she will fit right in with the other girls on the squad. She is familiar to playing against tough competition from her time at Arkansas Fort Smith and the difficult Heartland Conference. Competing at top flight singles and doubles, she has also proven herself to be a top DII player with wins over some of the nation's top-50 players. I am looking forward to working with Emily and reaching the team's goal of competing at another NCAA South Region tournament."

SWINDON Town manager Mark Cooper was left fuming at referee Darren Sheldrake's decision to book Nathan Thompson for "adopting an aggressive attitude" during last night's goalless draw with Colchester United.
Thompson was shown his 10th yellow card of the campaign in the 70th minute at the County Ground, meaning the right-back will now have to serve a two-game suspension with no possibility of appeal.
Cooper was informed by Sheldrake that the defender was cautioned for his body language during an incident which saw U's midfielder Sanchez Watt dismissed for aiming a headbutt in his direction and the Town boss was livid in his post-match press conference.
"It's an atrocious decision," he said. "At the time I saw and it thought 'he hasn't done anything' and for the referee to tell me he's booked him for adopting an aggressive attitude – now what is that?
"For me that's going to punch someone or going to headbutt someone, not walking away with your hands up to protect your face. I'm going to go and see the referee, ask him to look at the DVD and explain it to me. We can't appeal a yellow card, it's ridiculous. It's shocking.
"I've got my boots, I can play right-back, kick one or two and away we go."
Meanwhile, Nile Ranger is now rated "doubtful" by Cooper ahead of the visit of Peterborough United in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy southern section area final second leg on Monday night, after picking up a hamstring injury.
Ranger was forced off with the problem just before half-time last night and will be assessed by the Swindon medical staff this morning.
Cooper cut a frustrated figure at the end of the stalemate with Colchester, saying: "We dominated it from start to finish. I'll have an argument with anyone who says we didn't. We deserved to win but you have to put the ball in the back of the net."
Finally, Town yesterday confirmed Miles Storey's loan move to Shrewsbury Town – as revealed by the Advertiser, with Cooper saying: "He's been pestering may and rightly so that he wants to play, and he's got a fantastic opportunity to go to Shrewsbury. Let's see how he does."

"This card matched our Kentucky Champagne theme beautifully for our lovely bachelorette! The quality, colors, gold envelopes and delivery were perfect. Highly recommend."
"As a fan of Victoria's Secret, this design was absolutely perfect! It fit with the bridal shower and bachelorette party! Paper is good quality (thick and not flimsy). Color is on point and the shades of pink are the same as on the sample."
"I love this card style because it's fancy and fun! Also, you can add text to the back and I put the itinerary for the weekend there. Seriously, the best card and Wedding Paper Divas has the best customer service!"
"I loved these bachelorette party invites! I chose a customized color to match my bridesmaid color and it turned out great!"
"I ordered these cards for my sister's bachelorette/lingerie party - we were going with a 1920s theme. They arrived and looked exactly like I had imagined. Very Great-Gatsby. The paper and look is matte, so there are no real sparkles, but they turned out beautiful. I ordered them on a Friday and they arrived that next Wednesday. Great experience overall."


text: Arroyo deserves it more than Harang, and Harang deserves it, too. There are 25 starting pitchers in the Reds Hall of Fame, and you'd have a difficult time arguing that those two aren't more deserving than some of the existing members. They'll have to kick out Jack Billingham before they refuse Arroyo.

A friend of mine just today got his laptop stolen.
It was a $2000 macbook pro so its a pretty big f***ing deal now that its gone.
Anyways, as a future precaution for myself, I was wondering that is there a small tracking device that I can buy that I can attach onto my own laptop so that in the event of a theft I can track where its going.
Does anyone know of something?
I had my labtop stolen and it was in a room that was supose to be monitoredbut it was taken anyway so i am going to get another one, I heard of tracking software but it only works when its turned on they need something that will track while it's is turned off so you can track it , I think the key for the fastest recovery if you can track it while it's turned off.:mad:
I've seen software(similar to a trojan but friendly) that will call home to a registry that you can subscribe to.
Doesn't stop the theft, more important is strong encryption of sensitive information
Sorry to hear about your friends laptop.
Never used it: http://iconico.com/locatePC/
Found it here: http://www.google.com/search?q=track+stolen+laptop
I was watching one of the "super cop" shows recently and P-Diddy's laptop was stolen, but they found it within the hour Though the show might have encompassed several days. Since the "super cops" never get a day off (or sleep) it is hard to tell sometimes.
I think there is no solution like laptop tracking unless laptop manufacturers starts putting a gps transmitter in their product.
It would probably be better to just back you your data and insure it to be honest.
I know this is an old thread but I wanted to make sure you were aware of the opensource project called adeona http://adeona.cs.washington.edu/Think lojack for your laptop.
I actually purchased & installed a program for Mac called "Undercover"
Undercover, that would be great.
Seems like a great idea. Something to follow it they ever get it to work right.

Fairfax County Continues to Provide Assistance to Victims of Hurricane Katrina
Fairfax County Office of Public
12000 Government Center Parkway, Suite 551
Fairfax, VA 22035-0065
Sept. 14, 2005
Fairfax County Continues to Provide
Assistance to Victims of Hurricane Katrina
Fairfax County human services staff are working on site at the American Red Cross local chapter office in Fairfax to help make the process as easy as possible for hurricane evacuees to apply for emergency assistance and other services, providing an initial "one-stop shop" to connect evacuees with various sources of assistance and information.
Evacuees also can come directly to county offices to apply for assistance, where they will be connected to various resources.
"All doors are open for evacuees seeking county services," explained Juani Diaz, director of self-sufficiency and employment programs for the county's Department of Family Services. "We are working closely with other Fairfax County agencies, the American Red Cross and other community resources to connect our new residents from the hurricane-affected area with the services they so urgently need."
Evacuees needing additional information or people wishing to offer assistance may call the Hurricane Katrina hotline at 703-817-7771, TTY 711 or visit the Fairfax County Government Web site at www.fairfaxcounty.gov.
The county remains involved with Katrina assistance and committed to providing resources to those affected who have come to Fairfax County. In addition to agency responses, the county also has partnered with other Northern Virginia jurisdictions to provide a coordinated response from the region to the area affected by Hurricane Katrina. On Tuesday, Sept. 13, a Northern Virginia regional team was deployed to New Orleans, with an additional four deployed today to join that effort. Four of those 14 members are Fairfax County staff.
Below are additional details on how the county has helped and responded to Hurricane Katrina.
Family Services
To date, 185 hurricane evacuee families and/or individuals (representing 347 people – 240 adults and 107 children) have applied with the county's Department of Family Services for assistance such as food stamps, Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, Medicaid, employment assistance, and senior services. DFS staff is helping evacuees apply for "E-Medicaid," the new emergency medical assistance program for hurricane evacuees who are here in Virginia. Most of the evacuees who have applied with DFS are staying with friends or relatives. Some have Red Cross vouchers and are staying in local hotels.
Fourteen evacuee children have enrolled in the School Age Child Care program. The Office for Children sent a letter to all child care providers and child care centers in the county asking that they inform OFC of any available space in their programs to accommodate evacuee families. So far, more than 30 child care providers and 20 child care centers have replied. OFC will serve as a clearinghouse for this information in the county.
Fire & Rescue
Since the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department has provided several emergency resources to the affected hurricane area. They include:
- 34 member Virginia Task Force I, Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department's Urban Search and Rescue team, to Mississippi (seven-day deployment; returned Sept. 6).
- Five members as part of a FEMA Incident Support Team.
- Two members in support of the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA), as part of the United States Agency for International Development.
- Several members providing operational staffing support at Headquarters, OFDA.
- Two members providing humanitarian relief to affected firefighters and their families under the sponsorship of the International Association of Fire Fighters.
- Three members assigned to the regional Incident Management Team providing command/control support in Mississippi under the direction of the Emergency Management Assistance Compact.
- Two members assigned in support of Headquarters, FEMA.
- One communications specialist in support of FEMA.
The Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department continues to also work closely with the Virginia Department of Emergency Management Agency in support of requests received from all affected disaster areas. In addition, VATF1 received an activation order from the Federal Emergency Management Agency on Tuesday, Sept. 13, to assist with Hurricane Ophelia.
Health Department
The Health Department has provided the following services:
- Provided immunizations to evacuees/survivors.
- Conducted nursing home pre-screening on one evacuee/survivor.
- Provided immunizations to State Troopers who are to be deployed.
- Provided immunizations at the Government Center AEOC to the Regional Management Team for deployment to Louisiana.
- Provided immunizations to volunteers going to the Gulf Coast.
- Have 25 staff on standby at request of Virginia Department of Health to be deployed to Gulf Coast upon official notification; deployments will be staggered as environmental issues are first for attention (water/sewage), then health care will be addressed.
- Provided all Medical Reserve Corps volunteers with instructions for connecting with National MRC office if interested in volunteering; five have completed the process this week.
- Sharing information from the Virginia Department of Medical Assistance Services with hospitals regarding Medicaid coverage plans for evacuees.
Medical Reserve Corps
Volunteers from the Fairfax Medical Reserve Corps, a corps of medical and non-medical volunteers managed by the Fairfax County Health Department, currently are registering with the American Red Cross to assist Hurricane Katrina victims in the Gulf Coast region. To date, 11 volunteers have signed up since Sept. 7, when Red Cross deployment applications were made available to Fairfax Medical Reserve Corps members. Two volunteers will deploy to the Gulf Coast this week for a 14-day assignment.
Due to the extensive need for trained volunteers in the Gulf Coast region, the American Red Cross has partnered with the national Medical Reserve Corps office to extend Hurricane Katrina-related volunteer opportunities to MRC members. The Fairfax Medical Reserve Corps is an all-volunteer group of people from medical and non-medical backgrounds who stand ready to assist the Fairfax County Health Department in the event of a local public health emergency.
Housing & Community Development
The Department of Housing and Community Development is providing assistance to those families and individuals impacted by Hurricane Katrina who need assistance finding housing while here in Fairfax County. HCD is working with private landlords and the Fairfax County Redevelopment and Housing Authority to identify vacant units in the county—either privately owned or FCRHA owned—that can be rented to guests to Fairfax from the Gulf Coast's damaged areas. HCD also is providing vouchers to assist with rent, and the county, in partnership with the faith community, will be coordinating efforts for assistance with job placement, school for children, home furnishings and other necessities like groceries and clothing.
In addition, the Homeownership Resource Center, located at 3700 Pender Drive and associated with the county's First-Time Homebuyer Program, is closed Sept. 9-23 to all regular homeownership activities. During this time, the center will serve as an operations center for HCD's relocation efforts for those coming to the county from the Gulf Coast, and will only be open to those families and individuals. For more information, call 703-246-5087, TTY 711. The Resource Center will re-open on Monday, Sept. 26, for regular business.
Public Library
The library has extended services to victims of Hurricane Katrina who have been taken in by Fairfax County residents. Gulf Coast guests will be asked to use their hosts' addresses when signing up for free library cards, since their home addresses may no longer be valid. Library staff will help displaced Gulf residents find the information they need to integrate into the Fairfax County community as quickly and easily as possible and those persons can also use library computers to e-mail friends and family and check the Internet for updates from Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. The library also offers free educational and entertaining events, activities and reading material to help ease the stress. Directions to the nearest library branch can be found on the library's Web site at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/library.
Public Affairs
The Office of Public Affairs created a Hurricane Katrina Web page for residents and those with resources, including ways to donate, etc.; and provided news and information updates via the Fairfax County Government Emergency Information Line (703-817-7771, TTY 711). Staff also is assisting evacuees who come to the Government Center lobby desk and directing them to the appropriate agencies for assistance.
Purchasing and Supply Management
The Department of Purchasing and Supply Management has provided support to the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency, assisting it in locating sources for emergency needs immediately after the storm passed through the Gulf Coast. Purchasing & Supply Management has a comprehensive network of strategic vendors identified specifically as emergency response resources. Contact with Mississippi procurement professionals operating out of the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency office in Jackson took place through relationships developed with those colleagues through participation in the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing. Similar sourcing support and information was provided to procurement professionals working in Louisiana's emergency operations center in Baton Rouge.
Systems Management for Human Services
Staff in Coordinated Services Planning is assisting hurricane evacuees when they call the intake line (703-222-0880; Espanol: 703-631-3366; TTY: 703-803-7914).

text: Interesting ZooTennis article. It links to a story about the decline in Challengers, which makes it tougher to climb the pro ranks. It also mentions that Futures tourneys that offered $10,000 in total prize money in 1990 are still offering the same amount today, when it would take $17,000 to match the inflation since 1990. Awfully tough to get started and make a living if the tennis associations are not going to push for more money in Futures and Challengers.

Eggplant and Mint Bruschetta
The lemon juice and mint perk up the sweet, mellow flavors of the roasted veggies.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
Source: Everyday Food, May 2007
- 1 eggplant (1 1/2 pounds), cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 medium red onion, quartered lengthwise, layers separated
- 4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise, seeded, and slivered
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 4 slices crusty bread, 1/4 inch thick
- 1/2 cup packed fresh mint leaves, torn into large pieces
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Divide eggplant, onion, tomatoes, and 2 tablespoons oil between two rimmed baking sheets. Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine. Roast until eggplant is tender, 25 to 30 minutes; let cool to room temperature.
Meanwhile, place bread on another baking sheet, and brush with 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; bake until golden, 4 to 6 minutes.
Transfer eggplant mixture to a medium bowl. Add mint; toss with remaining tablespoon oil and lemon juice. Divide eggplant mixture among bread slices, top with feta, and serve.
