Game time at FedExForum for the NCAA South semifinals and Vice President Mike Pence is expected to be here to cheer on the Butler Bulldogs. The Butler mascot – a live bulldog – was already in town Thursday making the rounds. I think March Madness requires that all involved up their mascot game if they get this far. So UCLA, we expect to see a live bear roaming Beale Street. You might be able to work a deal with the zoo on this. But if there's a cost split make sure you nail down those percentages.

RED STATES. RED HERRINGS. Earlier this year, I wrote about laws our state Legislature passed in their last session to solve problems that didn't exist.
Statistically, you and I are much more likely to be struck by lightning while in the next door bathroom stall to a transgender person who just committed voter fraud, or sitting between an outraged counselor or therapist and a same-sex couple carrying concealed weapons in a college chapel pew than we are to fall victim to anything the Legislature has proposed or passed laws to protect us against.

One of the prime culprits in the housing bubble burst that played a role in the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression is back – the adjustable rate mortgage.
Numbers from Chandler Reports, the real estate information company that is part of The Daily News Publishing Co. Inc, show the number of such loans has spiked in the first half of this year and are the highest they've been since 2008, the year after the bubble burst nationally.
Former Shelby County Commissioner Sidney Chism wants to be the Democratic nominee for Shelby County mayor in 2018, and he plans to begin his campaign after the November presidential election.
For a few minutes last week you could see the 2018 race for Shelby County mayor as county commissioners were moving toward a resolution of their 2016 budget season.
It came as the commission began to compare what initially looked to be two different estimates of county revenues for the fiscal year that ended June 30 – one from the administration of county Mayor Mark Luttrell and the other from Trustee David Lenoir.
The exact numbers always take a few weeks. That's the nature of budgets forged by political compromise and groups of elected officials.
There are always changes and adjustments. And there are also second thoughts.
I'm super-thankful for the commitment of Shelby County Commissioners led by chairman Terry Roland and budget chairman Van Turner to add critically needed funds for the 2017 Shelby County Schools (SCS) budget approved Wednesday, June 29. I'm also very thankful to Superintendent Hopson and the SCS board members along with organizations like Stand for Children, Black Lives Matter and petition signers who advocated for a budget that refused to slash some core academic programs and staff.
By the end of Shelby County government's budget season, a lot of paper was being passed around the County Commission chambers.
It was in keeping with the rules set by chairman Terry Roland going into the Wednesday, June 29, session that stretched on for seven hours: All amendments had to be put in written resolution form.
Shelby County commissioners put most of their budget season to rest Wednesday, June 29, with $5 million from the county's reserve fund after they added $13 million in amendments to the $1.1 billion county operating budget during a seven-hour session.
It's not the basics that are keeping Shelby County Commissioners from a majority vote on school funding in the new operating budget.
It is the broader questions and budget assumptions some commissioners want to change in the process.
It's been a long time coming, but Friday is the kickoff for wine sales in grocery stores. While you're getting your corkscrews ready, check out what else is going on this week – from a deadline in the greensward mediation process to a special superhero stop at St. Jude...
Northside High School is no more. The Klondike-Smoky City institution graduated its last class last month.
The Shelby County Schools board had voted that same month to give the high school one more school year.
Most of the declarations Monday, June 20, before the Shelby County Commission delayed final votes on local schools funding to next week came from the audience.
"For too long we've bled, died, cried and pled for education," former Memphis City Council and Memphis City Schools board member TaJuan Stout-Mitchell told the commission.
Fragile is probably the best way to describe the compromise that emerged this week from county commissioners to fully fund the Shelby County Schools budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1.
The plan that closes a $27.4 million gap between what the school system wants and what Shelby County Mayor Mark Luttrell proposed in April had eight votes on the 13-member commission in Wednesday, June 15, committee sessions.

Shelby County Commissioners approved Monday, May 9, three temporary positions for the Shelby County District Attorney General's Office toward the rollout of Memphis Police Department body cameras.

While their folks are still getting settled over in the front office at The Commercial Appeal, Gannett announces Monday an $815 million offer to buy Tribune Publishing which would put The Los Angeles Times and The Chicago Tribune in the expanding USA Today family.
Paul Young gets a lot more attention these days than he did when he was the first director of the city-county Office of Sustainability. The attention comes with being the city director of Housing and Community Development where virtually all of the funding comes from the federal government.That federal funding has changed the face of public housing in the city in the last 25 years. There is only one large public housing project left in the city as a result of the federal funding and its use by Young's predecessor, Robert Lipscomb.And what Lipscomb did with the job combined with being the executive director of the Memphis Housing Authority is why a lot of people want to get to know Paul Young these days.Our centerpiece story by Madeline Faber in Tuesday's edition makes clear that Young has no desire to wield that kind of power. And it is unlikely anyone in the near future will have the kind of autonomy Lipscomb did.But beyond that there is still the flow of a lot of federal dollars and Young has some ideas based on his experience in government and finance prior to coming to HCD – everything in government is initials.It's a much different experience than Lipscomb's. Lipscomb coined the phrase "ending public housing as we know it" and at times that slogan wasn't followed with a lot of detail about what came after public housing was demolished, especially with the first of the projects to fall.The last public housing project, Foote Homes, will be demolished on Young's watch which makes his tenure important if more limited than Lipscomb's tenure.
The 2018 Shelby County general elections are more than two years away. The 2016 county elections that decide races for General Sessions Court Clerk, five of the nine seats on the Shelby County Schools board and two judicial positions are still to come in August.
In a unanimous vote, Shelby County commissioners waived their legal privilege Wednesday, April 6, and approved the public release of a disparity study that is expected to show minority businesses get a low percentage of county government contracts.
Memphis City Council Chairman Kemp Conrad wants to open talks with county commissioners on possible voluntary de-annexations.
And County Commission Chairman Terry Roland said he is open to the idea.
You've heard of the mediation process surrounding the long-term use of the Overton Park Greensward by the Memphis Zoo for its overflow parking.It appears there is now a less formal mediation process underway when it comes to the use of the greensward during the park's spring peak season which is now underway.
The Tennessee Legislature's de-annexation debate is over for now. But the bill's effect on the Memphis-Capitol Hill relationship has left a larger political imprint than the proposal.
That's saying a lot considering the proposal dealt with the possibility of territory and citizens rearranging the city's boundaries to put them and the taxes they pay outside the city limits.
Some Shelby County Commissioners are skeptical about City Hall's estimate of how much city government would lose in revenue if a deannexation bill in the Tennessee Legislature becomes law.
The commission's discussion at Wednesday, March 16, committee sessions came as Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland was in Nashville to lobby against the bill in the state Senate.
At the first Shelby County Commission meeting since the March primary elections, commissioners will consider a move to eliminate all term limits for elected county officials.
The issue could be put to county voters on the August ballot.
The Trump balloons were a late arrival to the Shelby County Republican party's annual Lincoln Day Gala, the local party's largest annual fundraiser.
They were an unsubtle accent in a room of 500 people where unabashed hand-to-hand campaigning kept the buzz of conversation at a steady level for most of the evening.
Shelby County Mayor Mark Luttrell made a few stops between his first thought this month that he might want to run for Congress and going public with those thoughts Tuesday, Feb. 23.

Nayantara who recent started her second innings had made a shocking decision. She had refused a Bollywood offer and that too beside Shah Rukh Khan. Going in to the details, She was approached by 'Chennai Express' director Rohit Shetty to perform an item song in the film opposite SRK. But Nayanathara politely refused, stating that she is not interested in such item song appearances for now. Apparently, Nayanathara did not want her Bollywood debut to be made with an item song.

For the second time, one of Domino's Pizza's most successful young franchisees has been attacked by arsonists.
Nick Knight, 29, who runs the Darlinghurst Domino's Pizza outlet and 17 other Domino's stores, lost seven of his delivery scooters that went up in flames early today.
Last September, fire destroyed eight scooters at his Darlinghurst Road store. Both cases are being treated by police as arson.
Detective Inspector Jason Weinstein confirmed that last year's investigation was ongoing and there were no suspects.
"That investigation is still open," he said.
A spokeswoman for Domino's said that, because this was a police investigation, the company would not be making further comment.
"Domino's takes these incidents very seriously and is working closely with local police to investigate the cause of the fire. Thankfully the scooters were unoccupied at the time and no one was injured during the fire."
Mr Knight, who started at the pizza group at 13 as a shift runner, worked his way up to regional manager and studied for a diploma of tourism and hospitality management/bachelor of business.
A recent profile said he was renowned for making "delivery scooters work as an effective way of delivering pizzas".
Mr Knight is Domino's Pizza's largest franchisee in Australia. Among his stores are outlets at Five Dock, Surry Hills and Glebe.
He says his people and store managers are the key to his success.
In an interview with WhichFranchise.net.au, he said: "I believe that if you select the right people, treat them well and give them the tools and training to do the job well, you can be successful."
Last September, fire destroyed eight scooters at the same Darlinghurst Road store. Both cases are being treated by police as arson
Recently he received a major award for achievement from the International Franchise Association.
In March, Mr Knight snared the International Gold Franny for his exceptional performance.
Regarded as Domino's most prestigious international accolade, the Franny recognises outstanding leadership, integrity and vision.
Domino's has 400 stores and about 10,000 delivery scooters across Australia.
The Domino's spokeswoman could not say whether this was an isolated incidence.

Pharmacy and Medications
Opioid Allergy
I need to find a pain medicine for an upcoming surgery. I am truly allergic to hydrocodone (not pseudoallergic) and codeine as well. Would demerol be a safe choice? Can you recommend anything? thankyou!
All opioids can cause histamine release as a part of their pharmacologic action. Another common side effect of the Opioids that is often mistaken for an allergic reaction is vomiting. Histamine release is responsible for itching, rashes and sneezing often reported after a dose of an opioid. Histamine release can also lead to acute onset of asthma -like symptoms in some patients.
True allergies to opioid products are rare. However, when they do occur, life-threatening adverse effects can develop. The Opioids are comprised of 3 different chemical classes. When a patient is an allergic to an opioid in one chemical class, an opioid from a different class may be less likely to cause an allergic reaction and possibly used safely.
Hydrocodone and codeine are in the morphine class. Meperidine is in the phenylpiperidine class. Other members of this class include fentanyl, and alfentanyl. The third class, known as the diphenylheptane class contains drugs such as methadone and propoxyphene. There is no expected cross-allergy between codeine/hydrocodone and meperidine or other members of the meperidine group.
* Learn important new information concerning the FDA withdrawal of the medication Propoxyphene(Darvon, Darvocet)
It is always up to the surgeon to determine which pain medication is appropriate for a patient after surgery. The advice of the surgeon should be followed. Any questions regarding the surgeon's choice of pain medication should be discussed prior to the surgery.

text: While Samsung was more than willing to redesign its flagship tablet in the face of the German court's ruling last year, the higher regional court in Dusseldorf maintains that the original still can't be sold within its borders. As Samsung and Apple continue their legal fisticuffs worldwide, the claim from Cupertino that the 10.1-inch Android tablet is too similar to its own iPad has seen more attention than most. Samsung returned the favor by counter-suing over mobile technology patents, although it's been just as unfortunate here, losing two out of the three infringement claims. The final case will be ruled on in early March. Today's decision will also encompass the (more…)

The S View Galaxy S7 Edge Cover features the useful auto on-off feature, which basically means that when you close the front lid of the case the phone turns off automatically, and when you open it, the phone display lights up. If you don't have a fingerprint set up, you can go to using it straight away once you open it, and if you do have a fingerprint setup, you'd first need to unlock the phone.
Turning over to the case itself, we notice that Samsung has improved its grip, so while it's tight now, it's not as tight as the official Galaxy S6 cases that were such a snug fit that it was a pain taking them on and off. That's not the case here: the phone fits easily and sits snugly fitting.
We're not particularly impressed with the materials used in the S View Cover: it feels paper-like, not necessarily premium in feel, and the same applies to the padding on the inside.
Size-wise, the case does add some bulk to the otherwise impressively well built Galaxy S7 Edge: it makes it noticeably thicker, but the change is not as huge as with other, more ruggedized cases. The case itself is not too heavy, so it won't make your phone brick like in the hand.
Color choices are the typical for Samsung selection: you get a silver (the one we used for this review), white, black, gold, and all of them feature translucent plastic clasps on the four edges.
All in all, the Galaxy S7 Edge S View Cover is a stylish case that does not add too much bulk to the Galaxy S7 Edge. It also brings a very decent level of protection as the phone is protected from all sides, including the front, and you can safely slip it in the pocket and not worry if your keys are there and could scratch it. It will also protect the phone from drops, but it lacks the advanced protection that rubbery, more ruggedized cases provide, so it might not be enough if you are the type that often has their phone slip out of their pocket or just not very careful handling it. which can deal catastrophic damage to it.
- Stylish looks
- Does not add too much bulk
- S View window allows quick access to camera and favorites
- Not very great, paper-like feel
- Pricey

I can be shy at first, but once I warm up to you it can be hard to get me to shut up. I am attracted to intelligence and I always try to find the funny in anything, so a good sense of humor is a must.
I watch more cartoons than adults are supposed too, and like most people in the lower mainland I like to head out into the woods for camping trips when the mood strikes me
My movie taste is all over the place. I am pretty much always down for an action filled post apocalyptic romp or a good stoner comedy, but I also enjoy movies with more depth to them.
I watch far too much TV so I have quite a few "favourites". Lately I've found myself watching a lot of BBC nature documentaries. The Daily Show, Archer, One Piece, and Supernatural are shows I try not to miss. I'm still a twelve year old at heart though so I also watch a lot of cartoon's and anime.
As for Music I'm all over the place. I'm a bit of a metal head but my collection is also rife with funk, soul, classic rock and even a bit of electronic / dubstep.
I'm a big fan of Vietnamese food, but I also love good BBQ. When I go out for food I prefer to be adventurous and try some place new. Finding that little hole in the wall that makes "the most amazing" anything is always fun.
The Internet - My thirst for knowledge and utter lack of memory require near constant access to wikipedia.
My Truck - Our public transit system is terrible, especially if you live or travel outside of Vancouver proper.
Good Fiction - What can I say, I enjoy my escapism.
Stimulating Conversation - Without hearing differing opinions or alternate views on ideas and beliefs the human mind will whither in self indulgence.
Sense of Humor - It is my belief that to be an intelligent person in this modern era you either need the ability to see humor in almost anything, or you need to be a complete sociopath.
Music - I could deal with the loss of almost any kind of media: TV, movies, books and video games, just so long as I can still listen to Zeppelin.

Public displays of antisemitism in Nazi Germany took a variety of forms, from posters and newspapers to films and radio addresses. This anti-Jewish parade float shows Polish Jews entering Germany followed by vermin. The inscription states: "They came-they took." Dresden, Germany, 1933-1939. Propagandists also offered more subtle antisemitic language and viewpoints for educated, middle-class Germans offended by crude caricatures. University professors and religious leaders gave antisemitic themes respectability by incorporating them into their lectures and church sermons.

NEARLY £400,000 has been lost by people in West Mercia who have fallen victim to cyber crime.
The police are warning people to be wary of cyber criminals and urging people to follow some steps to avoid being caught out.
The advice comes shortly after the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau provided police forces across England and Wales with individual annual fraud and cyber profiles.
The data shows the total financial loss reported by individuals and businesses from April 2013 to the end of March 2014 in West Mercia was about £8.6 million.
The equivalent total figure for cyber crime was around £590,000 across the alliance area, with a peak in the amount of money lost in December due to online purchases increasing over the Christmas period.
The loss for the 2013 and 2014 financial year in West Mercia was around £394,000.
The top cyber crimes in the area were computer virus, malware and spyware scams with 264 reported, followed by hacking, social media and e-mail scams, with 148 of these reported.
Barrie Sheldon, Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner for West Mercia, said: "Cyber crime is continuing to provide new and demanding challenges for the police service which is why we provided extra resources to West Mercia Police when setting the budget earlier in the year to more effectively address the problem.
"I would also encourage businesses and residents to know the risks and take precautions to protect themselves when they venture into cyberspace."
Detective Chief Inspector Sean Paley, from Warwickshire Police and West Mercia Police specialist operations unit, added: "Research has shown that many of these losses are preventable with some simple steps around anti-virus and keeping vigilant about how we use the internet.
"Updating software and anti-virus systems can prevent people falling victim and it is really important to have the latest security software installed on computers to enable safe shopping and banking online.
"Basic information risk management can prevent around 80 per cent of cyber attacks suffered by businesses."
Action Fraud received just under 5,000 reports of fraud from victims in West Mercia in 2013 and 2014. Where the victim is vulnerable or the crime is in action, local officers are deployed to investigate the case.
The top fraud type by volume was cheque, plastic card and online bank accounts, not payment service providers, with 1,366 incidents. Online shopping and auctions was next with 752.
In one case officers from the Economic Crime Unit recovered £100,000 for one victim, demonstrating that the ability to act swiftly, in partnership with the banking sector, deters and disrupts criminals seeking to exploit vulnerable victims.

Reviews for Colorful Chicken Casserole
Average Rating
"I was surprised that I liked this. I really did think it needed a little more broth or some sort of sauce though."
"Nice recipe"
"I really liked this recipe and have no idea why others complained that it had no flavor. I added a little extra salt and pepper due to other comments and I left out the mushrooms because I don't like them; other than those small changes I followed the recipe. It was delicious and a nice change from all the typical creamy casseroles."
"I wasn't impressed with this recipe. As others have said, it didn't have much flavor. With only the chicken stock added in the skillet, I wanted a more creamy sauce so I added some heavy cream. That helped but I wouldn't make this again."
"I must admit that when I mixed it together, I didn't think it was going to be a keeper. I didn't have frozen peas so I substituted a can of them instead. Other than that, I followed the recipe. My hubby & I both thought it was quite good... 4-5 star recipe."
"This tasted like everything in the kitchen sink poorly thrown together. It needed creaminess to it, and more cheese."
"I really like this recipe. I didn't make it myself, but my mother made it for me and sent it to school with me for a quick meal when I didn't have time to cook for myself. In the future when I make this myself, I will probably add even more vegetables than what it calls for. Also, I found that it took longer than stated to heat the frozen casserole."
"It was easy to add more flavor. When sauteing the celery, bell pepper and onion, I just added 1/2 teaspoon of crumbled sage and 1 teaspoon each of dried thyme and parsley. We also skipped the butter. Nice recipe."
"Hi! This was an ok recipe. I would change a few things tho. i would omit the green peppers. They seem to me to over power the recipe. I would also add a can of mushroom soup to it. just to give it a creamy texture."
"I found it to be very bland, had to pour a can of cream of chicken on top to make it better."
"I modified this recipe. I wanted more color so I use the colorful pasta. I also used a can of sodium reduced cream of mushroom soup. Also,instead of the frozen corn & frozen peas, I used the canned ones.Everyone in my family enjoyed it. I will be making it very often. Thank you for a good & easy recipe. Adel."
"I have made this many times and taken it to friends. It is light and does not have soups added. I liked that about the casserole. My family really liked it."
"No flavor what so ever was a big disappointment"
"Great recipe for simplicity to make and low fat but doesn't yield a lot of flavor either. My preschoolers LOVED it but my husband and I thought it was just "okay"."

Attorneys to offer free legal advice in Sharpsburg
Attorneys will give people in need free legal advice beginning this month.
Faith United Methodist Church's Roots of Faith Ministry in Sharpsburg will host The Neighborhood Table Legal Clinic on the first Thursday of each month at the same time as its free Neighborhood Table meal.
The event will feature attorneys providing up to 25 minutes of free legal advice and consultation on civil issues.
The Rev. Tom Parkinson said he was thrilled to be able to offer the clinic.
"If they can get 25 minutes with someone with expertise, that could give them a chance to chart a course out of a tough situation," he said.
Leigh Poltrock, an attorney at Pepper Hamilton LLP and a member of the church, said several other free clinics had recently closed or lost their space to operate.
The location on Main Street in Sharpsburg seemed like an ideal place to use.
"I figured there was probably a need in the community for those types of services, and it just seemed sort of like a natural place to offer them," Poltrock said.
Attorneys from Pepper Hamilton LLP and Dickie McCamey and Chilcote, P.C. will staff the clinic.
It is a signature project of the Allegheny County Bar Foundation.
The clinic will focus on everything but criminal and family law.
Issues covered will include landlord and tenant issues, problems with contractors and consumer law.
"Just about everything you could think of," Poltrock said.
The clinic will help place people in a better position within the legal system, Poltrock said.
"The cost of legal services is a growing obstacle to a lot of people being able to protect their own rights and have a say in court or in the court process," Poltrock said.
The clinic is open from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on the first Thursday of every month beginning Aug. 7.
The Roots of Faith Ministry is located at 800 Main St.

THE hospitality industry could cut the nation's youth unemployment by a quarter if every business in it agreed to take on just one young person.
That was one of the messages at an event in Bournemouth which saw firms pledge to create 41 apprenticeships, 49 jobs for young people and 69 work experience placements.
The Big Hospitality Conversation, hosted at the town's Premier Inn in Westover Road, brought together around 100 industry representatives with young people to discuss unemployment and the importance of work experience and apprenticeships.
Ufi Ibrahim, chief executive of the British Hospitality Association, told the meeting that the hospitality industry was growing rapidly, with 153,000 jobs generated in the midst of the recession from 2010-12.
The industry was responsible for 27.7 per cent of all jobs generated in the UK over that period.
The industry is the fourth biggest in the UK, ahead of transport and financial services.
It accounts for 18.4 per cent of jobs in South Dorset and 13.6 per cent in Bournemouth West.
Ufi Ibrahim told the event: "There are very few industries in the world that are going to continue to grow at the same pace as our industry."
There were seven billion people on the planet and people wanted to travel as they became richer, she said.
"In 1980, there were just 280 million international trips around the world. In 2012, there were 1.2 billion international trips taken around the world," she said.
"The United Nations has estimated that every single year, there will be a minimum of 43 million additional trips taken worldwide."
But she added: "Competition in our industry has never been as intense as it is today."
The industry needed to have the best training, work placements, apprenticeships and recruitment.
"Every busi-ness can make a difference and there are 240,000 businesses in our industry in the UK," she added.
"If every single business in the UK in our industry were to say: 'I'm going to make a pledge to create just one apprenticeship, one work placement or one job offer to somebody within the ages of 16-24', we'd wipe out one quarter of the youth unemployment in this country just like that."
Samantha Richardson, a director of Bournemouth's National Coastal Tourism Academy, which helped promote the event, said it was important to introduce young people to hospitality as a rewarding career option. She said: "There are so many stories and case studies of people who started as waiters and waitresses and ended up as general managers on good salaries."
Industry has power to change lives
GUESTS at the Big Conversation welcomed the efforts to forge more links between young people and the industry.
Council leader Cllr John Beesley, pictured right, who works in the hospitality industry, said: "It's a great opportunity to demonstrate that the industry both locally and nationally, really wants to bring in far more young people, particularly around apprenticeships."
Paul Clarke, chairman of the Bournemouth Accommodation and Hotel Association, said: "It's the first time we've had such an event in the town so it's momentous."
Ed Pyke, cluster general manager for Premier Inn in Dorset, said: "We are proud to be an employer with a strong social responsibility agenda and are committed to sharing our knowledge and success with other hoteliers and hospitality businesses on the power of combating youth unemployment, offering apprenticeships and providing work experience.
"Together as a community we have the power to change lives and provide real impact to our young unemployed people."
Premier Inns has also pledged 90 apprenticeships for the region.
Young people Michael Guthrie, Kirsty Coward and Sam Babbidge – who were all receiving training from the South West Regional Assessment Centre - welcomed the event. Sam said: "I'm hoping to learn everything I can and see what opportunities are out there."

Contained Places
Kirkcudbrightshire or, formally, "the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright" (Siorrachd Chille Chuithbheirt in Gaelic) was a county in the southwest of Scotland until Scottish counties were abolished in 1975. It was then merged with its neighbouring counties of Dumfriesshire and Wigtownshire to become the Dumfries and Galloway Region. In 1996 there was another reorganization of local administration structure in Scotland. This caused very little change in the southwest. The Region is now a unitary authority with the name Dumfries and Galloway Counci Area.
The term "Galloway" is used when Kirkcudbrightshire and its western neighbour Wigtownshire are described together.
The county is called The Stewartry by its inhabitants and forms the Stewartry committee area of Dumfries and Galloway Council, represented by eight Stewartry councillors. Local administration of the district today is overseen by the Stewartry Area Manager, based in the county town of Kirkcudbright.
Kirkcudbrightshire continues to be used administratively for property registration. References to past censuses, civil registration (or vital statistics records) prior to 1975, and the Old Parish Registers (pre 1855) always quote "Kirkcudbrightshire" in preference to any other title..
Kirkcudbrightshire is bounded on the north and north-west by Ayrshire, on the west and southwest by Wigtownshire, on the south and southeast by the Irish Sea and the Solway Firth, and on the east and northeast by Dumfriesshire. It included the small islands of Hestan and Little Ross. It had an area of 897.6 sq. miles (2,323km2).
Today the economy is dependent on agriculture and tourism. The land is hilly and in parts mountainous. Rainfall is higher than the British average. As a result the county is better suited to growing grass than grain crops. Galloway cattle, a beef breed, is native to the region.
The country west of the Nith was originally peopled by a tribe of Celts called Novantae, who long retained their independence.
After Agricola's invasion in 79 AD the country nominally formed part of the Roman province of Britannia, but the evidence is against there ever having been a prolonged effective Roman occupation. There was a Roman Temporary Marching Camp at Shawhead, Irongray Parish.
After the retreat of the Romans, the fate of the Novantae is unknown but by the 6th century Galloway was part of the Brythonic kingdom of Rheged.
By the 7th century much of Galloway became part of the English kingdom of Northumbria.

'It' bags are so overrated. By the time you have scraped enough pennies together to actually buy one there's another 'It' bag to be had. Let's not even talk about that one time someone had the gall to ask you if 'It' was real. So lets start a new trend shall we? Lets start carrying screen printed totes and whimsically embroidered makeup bags by Lotta Jansdotter instead. Available in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors there's destined to be a Lotta bag that speaks to you. And that will say loads more about your personality than some bag-of-the-month.

Nantwich 184 Toft 188
TOFT sit third in the Cheshire County ECB Premier League after a narrow victory at Nantwich on Saturday.
Winning the toss and choosing to bat on what proved to be a difficult wicket, opener Jake Hancock battled his way to 40 before the wickets fell regularly.
It was not until Atif Bajwa (55) and skipper Toby Drummond (23) came together that a stand of substance ensured that Toft posted a competitive 188 all out.
In response, Nantwich started brightly with openers Frank Farrington (38) and young Lancashire batsman Haseeb Hameed (44) scoring freely.
The introduction of spinners Jimmy Lomas and Rob Jones stemmed the tide and as the pressure built the wickets started to fall.
With 10 overs left, Nantwich needed 30 with plenty of wickets remaining.
But Lomas was bowling tightly at one end and Drummond brought on Tufail Ahmed to bowl accurate pace from the other.
Nantwich continued to lose wickets and ended up four short of the total at 184 all out. Lomas was in superb form with 7-60 and Ahmed contrbuted with 2-7.
Toft were also awarded a rare five penalty runs during their innings at the crease when the ball hit a helmet behind the wicket keeper. Those five runs eventually proved the difference between the sides.
Toft seconds dominated the return fixture against their Nantwich counterparts to go 57 points clear at the top of the league.
Nantwich were restricted to 134-8 off their 50 overs as skipper Ashley led the way with 11 tight overs capturing 2 -12.
He was ably supported by spinner Jake Dickinson, who took 3-20.
Toft only needed 28 overs to pass the Nantwich total, reaching 140-1 with openers Dave Blackburn (63) and Chris Drummond (61 no) doing the majority of the damage.
Toft's Rob Jones is part of the Cheshire side who face Devon in Sidmouth this week in the Unicorns County Championship match.
Toft thirds fared less well and a run of disappointing results leaves them in the relegation zone.
They batted first at Cheadle and slumped to 53 all out with A Khan taking 7-12. Cheadle knocked the runs of in 12 overs finishing on 55-4.

Gymnast Ikeda climbs podium at Toyota World Cup
A bronze medal from Ken Ikeda was the highlight for Abbotsford's Twisters Gymnastics Club at the recent Toyota World Cup in Japan.
Olympic veteran Ikeda notched a third-place result on the pommel horse – his specialty – and added fifth- and sixth-place finishes on the parallel bars and high bar, respectively.
Zachary Clay, making his debut as a senior athlete, turned in a strong performance. He was fourth on pommel horse, sixth on vault, and seventh on floor and parallel bars.
Three other Twisters gymnasts cheered on Ikeda and Clay, and also took the opportunity to train with the international athletes in Toyota, Japan. Jonathan Osers, Steven Chaplin and Nicolas Garfias all gained valuable international experience.

So, are you saying that Jesus Christ only becomes incarnate through the "false miracle of transubstantiation" and that he wasn't a "material thing" before He instituted the Eucharist (Matthew 26:26)? Thank you for taking the time to clarify your statement.
I apologize if you didn't understand my comment and hope you didn't take it to mean that I had made a judgment regarding Rev. Spurgeon's eternal salvation, which of course could only be made by God. By the way, where in the Bible can I find support for the Reformation, the authority of its leaders, the authority of "Scripture Alone," and salvation by "Faith Alone." Also, do you regard Rev. Spurgeon as an authority on faith? If you do, why? And one last question: How do you know the Bible is the "Word of God?" Thank you for taking the time to consider these questions.

News that the ancient post of Lord Chancellor is to be abolished and a new ministry of constitutional affairs created under the charge of Tony Blair's old flatmate Lord Falconer were bound to be controversial.
Gone also are the old Welsh and Scottish departments which ministers say are no longer needed in the wake of devolution.
Critics of the previous arrangement always attacked the fact the Lord Chancellor was both a member of the government and head of the judiciary with the power to appoint judges.
Unlike his predecessors, Lord Falconer will not sit as a judge or preside over the House of Lords.
He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "Why should the Lord Chancellor's role go? Because the person who appoints judges should not be
a member of the executive, a member of the legislature and involved as well as
the head of the judiciary.
"It's about time it happened and that is the effect of the government changes
Lord Falconer will retain the title of Lord Chancellor until it is abolished by statute.
Labour MP Bob Marshall-Andrews QC said: "If you are going to change 1,500 years
of constitutional history, you do it carefully, you have consultation, a White
Paper and experts, and then finally you bring it before Parliament, because
Parliament decides the way we are governed, not the prime minister on the back
of an envelope in Downing Street.
In the Commons, Tory MP Sir Patrick Cormack accused the government of abolishing "one of the great offices of state" on television.
"Some of us care about these things and some of us care about the traditions and history of our
country," he said.
Professor Robert Hazell of University College London said he welcomed the proposed changes.
He said that if anything the government should have gone further than abolishing the Welsh and Scottish Offices and created "a real department of the nations and regions".
On the proposed abolition of the Lord Chancellor's department Professor Hazell said it was "untenable" for one person to wear three hats.
Conservative spokesman Michael Howard said a thousand years of British constitutional history was being "torn up in a single press release".
Mr Howard said the British people were the losers in the changes to the judicial system in the wake of Lord Chancellor Derry Irvine's retirement.
And former law lord Lord Ackner told BBC News Online it made sense to separate the judiciary and Parliament completely.
The government is set to consult the public and legal experts about the setting up a supreme court.
The Bar Council said it "strongly supports any measures that strengthen the independence of the judiciary and the legal profession" but awaited more details.
Liberal Democrat deputy leader Alan Beith, who chairs the Commons committee examining the lord chancellor's role, feared ministers were rushing into the changes.
Mr Beith said: "These are fundamental and potentially valuable reforms.
"But they seem to have been worked out on the back of an envelope, with none of the debate and consultation which they require if they are to be carried through successfully."
But Mark Littlewood, of civil rights campaign group Liberty, said: "Some may lament the abolition of a position which has an even longer history
than that of prime minister, but a modern democracy needs to be based on
sensible and logical rules, not on anachronistic traditions."
Charter88 director Karen Bartlett said: "We applaud the creation of the department for constitutional affairs, but we still need a written constitution."

text: Great win by the Bucks yesterday! Aaron - stellar. DT - awesome. Shannonator - beast mode. Q - killin' it softly. Here's my gripe: why did Thad take Q out when he was clearly feeling it with the ball yesterday??? He was getting good looks and shooting out of his mind. Part of the reason we finally took the lead. Then all of the sudden I see him on the sidelines and he's being rotated in/out. Was that a defensive thing? I'm just trying to understand why he was on the side when we clearly needed offense when Iowa started storming back. I love Aaron and his game, but yesterday I felt like he was pressing it and - I know - dare I say it - he was sort of a ball hog down the stretch. He was reluctant to feed it to DT who was also stroking it well. I don't mind any player taking over a game, but clearly Aaron was a bit gassed at the end and he should've been passing the rock to the shooters more (well, NOT Lenzelle... sorry, because I know you give it your all but you're in a bad slump this season... except for the one 3-pt. you put up when we needed it most). Can 11W Nation explain this to me?

Happy Holidays From The Superficial
Alright, folks, it's that time of the year again where Photo Boy and I vanish after filling the site with Best Of posts to make it look like we're working. So those will start Thursday, followed by some light blogging on Friday and Monday, before retreating back into our holes until after New Year's. In the meantime, however you spend this time of year, we hope it's relaxing, and in accordance with Abrahamic law or we'll chop off your fucking foot.

A further 519 customers were originally affected but their power was restored just before 9.30am.

Overall a good experience, with some hitches: Voyager of the Seas Cruise Review by nexus42
Overall Member Rating
Overall a good experience, with some hitches
Destination: South Pacific
Embarkation: Sydney (Australia)
We pretty much headed straight to the Windjammer as we couldn't access our room until 1pm. It was quite empty at that time and we got a nice table at the back of the ship overlooking Circular Quay and the city, a very nice view. First impressions of the food for my friend (first time cruiser) and I was that it was pretty average. It is a step down from Celebrity which is to be expected, but I think I still had my expectations set a little high. It wasn't bad by any means but very American style and a bit bland. Free drinks at the Windjammer include water, iced tea, lemonade and sometimes a raspberry More cordial type drink. The lemonade was very nice - something to consider if you are thinking about getting a soda pack. We didn't get one and have no regrets as we found the free drinks to be more than sufficient.
We had an interior room and on deck 9 aft. Great location as Windjammer and the pool deck are a short walk 2 decks up. We tended to spend more time on the upper decks so it worked well for us. If you are going to spend more time at the Royal Promenade it would make more sense to get a cabin on a lower deck, as the elevators can be painfully slow and tend to be packed. That was one thing we found annoying about the ship - because it is so big (15 decks) you really do need to use the elevators a lot and you will spend a lot of time waiting for them. Overall our room was very nice. It had a flatscreen TV which we weren't expecting and was very clean. Our cabin attendant was excellent.
Seeing as I've already mentioned the food at Windjammer, I'll just briefly mention the crowds. I would recommend getting to breakfast either early or late, as if you go around 9-10 you will struggle to find a table (many people give up and just take their food outside onto the pool deck). If you go at 8-9 or 10-1030 you can usually find a table pretty easily. The staff at Windjammer were very good (the greeter lady out the front saying good morning was particularly friendly), and plates were cleared quickly and with a smile.
On the last few days of the cruise the Windjammer started to run out of English Breakfast tea, so we started getting Twinings one day which was good, and then a different type of Lipton tea that I suspect was from the crew supplies the next day. Not a big deal, but I think RCI needs to tailor their ordering for the Australian market a bit better. By the last few days of the cruise most, if not all of the bars also ran out of cans of Coke.
Our MDR experience wasn't so great as our server was quite cold. She took down our names on our first night dining there but never called us by them. She would take our orders and put the plates on our table without saying a word. She did open up a bit on the second last night, which coincidentally was the night the guest satisfaction cards were handed out. However most of her talking consisted of telling us how important it is to rate the MDR service as 'excellent'. This was followed up the next night by making sure we had rated the MDR service as 'excellent'. We didn't appreciate the pushy attitude and found it very unprofessional. On a happier note our assistant waiter was amazing (Yao from China). He made an effort to talk to us and basically did the job of our main waiter. We gave him an extra tip at the end (on top of our prepaid gratuity) because he was so nice and very professional. We found the food at the MDR to be generally very good, with a varied menu.
I would recommend against lunch at the MDR however as the menu seemed to be the same every day. If you get there early in the service we found that the food would be old, as if it had been sitting under a heat lamp for a long time, so it was basically inedible which was really disappointing. I'd recommend the Windjammer for lunch because the food is fresher and also because there's a much wider range of options.
On the first night we were told by some other guests that spaces at Portofino were filling up fast and that only the last night of the cruise had bookings available (apparently they were told this by Portofino staff). We went over to make a booking on the day 2 and had no trouble securing one - there seemed to be many available in contradiction to what we had been told. When we went to Portofino a few nights later they had apparently lost our booking, but they found us a table quickly anyway. In fact, half the restaurant seemed to be empty. Although many people had been raving about the food we found it to be just okay and probably not worth the $20 premium over the MDR food. We did find the service to be excellent however, certainly better than at the MDR.
Johnny Rockets was fun and very good value at $5 for unlimited food. Keep in mind a shake will set you back $5.25, but they are very good (3 scoops of ice cream in each one). The staff were really friendly and accommodating, however food took a long time to come out despite it being pretty simple fare (burgers, fries, etc) which I thought was odd. Overall a cool experience, and I would recommend going at least once just to check it out.
Outdoor/physical activities:
Rock climbing - very fun and if you go at the right time (about 30 mins before closing, around 5:30pm) you often don't have to wait at all. Ice skating - again pretty good, although you may have to wait a while. Heaps of kids on the rink though so you can't really go very fast. In-line skating - a bit lame as the track is extremely short. Mini golf - not bad, pretty boring course though. By the last few days of the cruise there was about two balls left, as there was a lot of out of control teenagers around who I suspect were stealing the balls or throwing them overboard (I'll talk about this a bit more later). Table tennis - old tables that are nearly falling apart, and only two of them. This is a popular activity so it was basically always being used, it would be good if they got a few more tables. I think that's about all the activities I can think of. Overall quite good though and better than any other ship I have been on for this sort of stuff.
Indoor activities:
I was a little disappointed by the indoor activities offerings, because it seemed like so many of the things in the Cruise Compass are designed to make money rather than to entertain guests. E.g. every day there will be like 5 or more 'seminars' at the day spa. One of our friends went and said that there was actually no seminar on, it was basically just a consultation to try and get you to buy products/services from the spa. Unless you're big on gambling or trivia there really isn't that much to do in the way of indoor activities. There was a distinct lack of lectures, whether on intellectual topics or just on the ports of call. I can only recall one lecture which was titled 'How to keep your mind sharp as a tack', pretty clearly targeted at the oldies so of no interest to us. Bingo was $22 for a mini card (3 chances on 4 games) or $32 for a regular card (6 chances on 4 games). Unfortunately the bingo host went very fast and tended to just read out the numbers, and didn't make too many jokes which I enjoy. As a result it only went for like 30 minutes (if that). We were surprised that the prizes for trivia were quite stingy, stuff like RCI keychains. I know the point is to have fun etc but surely they can do a little better, e.g. a drink voucher or something? I remember on Celebrity they would give away thermoses and such, stuff that's actually useful.
The only port we went to was Noumea, as Fiji had to be cancelled due to an engine problem. Credit to RCI and the cruise director as I thought communication about the issue was very good. The captain and engineer even made a video that was played on the TVs to explain in technical detail about what was wrong with the ship. Every guest was offered a credit of 40% of what they paid for this cruise to go toward a future cruise which I though was very generous too. Docking at Noumea is at a container port, and you have to catch a bus to the town. Honestly we didn't really enjoy Noumea at all. We found that there wasn't much to do and that the people weren't particularly friendly. The beaches were quite unpleasant (very small, rocky sand and lots of sea snakes) and shopping is expensive. I would recommend going to the supermarket opposite the cruise terminal and buying some of the really nice French bread and cheese, and have a picnic for something to do. If you're thinking of buying the train tour shore excursion, don't - you can get the same thing in the cruise terminal for $20 (RCI sells it on board for $59 or something ridiculous like that).
The ice skating show was really good, and I would highly recommend going. It was by far the best show on the cruise and the skaters are very talented. As for the rest, it was typical cruise ship entertainment including a magician one night, a singer another night, and the orchestra/dancers on others. Nothing stood out as great but all the shows we saw were relatively entertaining.
We really liked the Solarium area which was for adults only. The pool was nice, and the water always very warm. Never had any problems finding a lounge around the pool or getting a spot in the jacuzzi which was great and impressive for a ship with this many passengers. The main pool area was of course packed with kids so we stayed away from it. I did try it once and made the mistake of swimming with my eyes open. They must have just added a bunch of chlorine because my eyes burned and turned really red, I basically had to run to the bathroom to wash them out. I think they really should close the pool if they're going to be adding so much chlorine.
We purposely chose a cruise in February as school had gone back (hoping to avoid lots of kids) but for some reason there seemed to be a lot anyway. There was a lot of rowdy teenagers who would take over public spaces, mess up the furniture and just generally act like they owned the place, e.g. being very rude/demanding to the staff at Cafe Promenade, basically having no respect for crew or fellow passengers. It's a shame the parents didn't take more responsibility/control over their kids. Of course this isn't RCI's fault, but if you are very sensitive to having lots of kids or teenagers around I'd recommend spending the extra $ to go on Celebrity.
Ship overall:
The ship is in good condition and has some great facilities. Personally I found the ship a bit too big - I like the feeling of knowing I'm at sea (ocean views from inside lounges, being able to feel the ship rolling) and this was lost a bit on the Voyager. Having said that if you're a first time cruiser, or prone to sea sickness it would be perfect for you as you can sit in the Royal Promenade and you could literally be anywhere (it's basically like being in a shopping centre).The peek-a-boo bridge is a great idea, as is being able to walk right up to the front of the ship which is relatively rare on other cruise ships. The High Notes bar at the top of the ship is a good place to have a quiet drink or just to relax as it's usually pretty empty. The CD Graham Seymour was very energetic and did a great job at keeping morale high despite missing a port.
Very quick and smooth. RCI provides pastries and coffees in the disembarkation lounges which I thought was a nice touch too.
Overall thoughts:
Would I cruise with RCI again? Yes, but I would like to try a smaller ship such as the Radiance. If it were a matter of a few hundred dollars extra for the same itinerary I would however prefer to cruise with Celebrity for the better food and indoor activities, and fewer kids. Overall though we had a very good time and for what we paid this cruise was excellent value. Less

Clean & Clear Oxygenating Fizzing Cleanser Reviews
not a bad productthe only thing ive got to compare it to is bliss's foaming mask. it goes on DRY skin, and FOAMS UP ON ITS OWN. thats cool. it feels cool and very fresh afterwards too. the lotion to match, i dont like as much. my sister keeps stealing this out of my bathroom when she's there, lol! its not for like, removing heavy eye makeup but it does leave me feeling fresh. — 8 years, 4 months agocorizotti | 550 reviews

so soI did like the fizzing feeling but it's a little drying on the skin after. Moisturizer a must. — 9 years, 1 month agoMiss_Vicki | 271 reviews
Oxidation!This is awful - it does do something on your skin, and it does clean, but it makes you wonder what it is DOING to your skin. Just let it sit on your bathroom counter for a day or two w/a little product on the top of the opening. It looks like extreme oxidation on a peice of Sterling silver - only darker and gummier!!!! — 6 years, 7 months ago1955Nurse | 234 reviews

No FizzI used this twice at a friends house when I forgot to bring my own cleanser. I don't know why she liked it.. there wasn't any fizzing! After using this cleanser, I felt as if there was still something left on my face. May it be residue or make-up - it was gross. I wasn't "clean" after! I didn't like the smell either. Kind of medicinal & perfume-like. I am certainly glad that I didn't buy this for myself. — 7 years, 9 months agoWaffleA | 25 reviews
KNOW how to use this product before you use it.I bought this product and used it like a cleanser. Wet my face, lathered and rinsed. It cleaned semi-nicely, but didn't fizz. I didn't think much of it though, and thought it was an alright product, I would have probably given it a 5 at the time. Now that I read the comment about how to use it correctly, I realized I've been using it wrong for so long! Sure enough, I peeled back the label and ther...read moree are the directions! You start with a dry face, put the cleanser on all around and wait a few seconds. The cleanser will begin to fizz and you can feel it cleaning by the tingling in you pores! I left it on for around 30-45 seconds, and it became pretty thick and mousse-like. I washed it off, and followed with a nice nighttime moisturizer and I feel very clean! — 8 years, 5 months agoAnnixa | 10 reviews
not impressedI purchased this product because of the oxygenating foam and it was a good value. I never did see a foam and my face did not feel fresh after washing. I still have a full bottle just sitting under my sink. — 8 years, 8 months agoTK | 4 reviews
Wierd!Thats the only way I know how to describe it. Right after application my face just felt wierd. It did dry up my skin so i dont think i'll purchase again — 8 years, 11 months agohappychic80 | 9 reviews
dried up the oilThis dried out the oil on my T zone. But after a few weeks it ended up leaving flakey skin. — 9 years agoMelies | 62 reviews
don't do itIt doesn't fizz ,dry or wet. It also doesn't clean as well as other face cleanser s. I was very disappointed. — 9 years, 1 month agoantoinette1234 | 5 reviews
CleanThis is one of the strangest face lotions I've ever used, and I've used plenty. This felt promising from pump to palm. Then, once I applied it, it felt thick and heavy, and I didn't like the way that it made my t-zone literally reflective it was so shiny. This is a disappointment. — 9 years, 2 months agolil2sarcastic | 67 reviews

So, if Samsung owns the Galaxies,
the LG " G "owns the Globe/global,
and Sony xperia ZU = Universe,

So it'll be called the LG G2? Hmm, it sounds funny to say it out loud. But I do like the compactness of the name.
I imagine somewhere down the line we might see a 'Samsung Galaxy Stellar Win Active Zoom 3"

"Optimus G" is good, get rid the "LG" in front of it.
LG= LIFE IS GOOD. .. IF YOU KNOW HOW TO UPDATE YOUR PREVIOUS PHONES NOT ONLY THE NEXUS 4. You just know how to make new one, but forgot to upgrade/support the old one, that waiting somewhere in the dark.
By the way, How's your new "Optimus G Pro", I barely read a news about it. .. it is going to the dark side too!???

I thought Optimus G Pro is the killer competitor to gnote 2, what happened now ? " your product is good but... we need update ".
18. roldefol (Posts: 4365; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
I've owned more LG phones than any other brand. They had great built quality and electronics. Haven't seriously considered an LG smartphone because Verizon insists on using proprietary branding like Spectrum and Lucid. I'd look at a G if it were left untouched by the carrier.

Daniel Radcliffe (wizard, wrestling fan, Google Plus user) shared this delightful image of himself with Matthew Lewis at a WWF match just days before the first Harry Potter movie started filming. He did it as a plug for Lewis in Season 2 of Happy Valley on Netflix, so you can add "good friend" to the list of attributes listed above.
The caption reads:
Found this and thought I'd share it with you all. Two days before the start of HP1 our producer, David Heyman, took Matthew Lewis, Rupert Grint and me (in my super-cool lime green zip-top!) to WWF INSURRECTION in Sheffield (this was prior to it becoming WWE). Unfortunately I don't have a photo of the whole group. Judging by the sign behind us I think William Regal was making his entrance! And judging by our faces we weren't quite brave enough to boo him.
It was very good night! Go watch the brilliant Mr. Lewis in season 2 of Happy Valley on Netflix! Happy Friday everyone! – Dan
