Now a "Preserve America City"!
Prescott is Americas newest
Preserve America Community!
Mark Rey, Undersecretary of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, presented Mayor Rowle Simmons a Preserve America designation certificate. Rey was in Prescott on behalf of First Lady Laura Bush, who selected Prescott for the Preserve America designation in recognition of the city's concerted historic preservation efforts over the last quarter century.
"My personal view is today's award to the city is very well deserved," Rey said during the ceremony. "As a community, you have been involved in historic preservation for substantially longer than most American communities."
Citing the establishment in 1978 of a Historic Preservation Commission and the adoption in 1998 of a Historic Preservation Master Plan, Rey said, "Prescott is unique among American cities of this size." The Preserve America designation, he said, "is recognition of this long and successful record of achievement."
The ceremony followed a visit to the City of Prescott's nearly 100-year-old Elks Opera House and a walking tour of historic downtown. A restoration of the opera house front lobby was highlighted in the city's application for the Preserve America designation.
Prescott and Fort Apache in the White Mountains are the only Preserve America Community designees in Arizona. More than 100 communities nationwide have earned the designation.
"We are honored by this designation and we are proud of our growing reputation as a community that truly is dedicated to historic preservation and heritage tourism," said Mayor Simmons.
President George W. Bush created the Preserve America initiative in March 2003 to recognize communities that make "exceptional efforts to protect and celebrate their heritage; use their historic assets for economic development and community revitalization; and encourage people to experience and appreciate local historic resources through education and heritage tourism programs

USS Texas. The only surviving dreadnought in the world. San Jacinto Battlefield State Park, Texas.
These are photographs of the USS Texas. The date stamp, fwiw, is in error. These were taken in October, 2016.
The Texas is the last Dreadnought on earth. One pre dreadnought battleship exists, a Japanese example, and several post dreadnought battleships. But these ships, which formed the backbone of every major fleet in the world in the early 20th Century, are down to this example. She was launched in 1912 and commissioned on 1914. A major ship in her day, while she served all the way through World War Two, and provided support to amphibious landings in Europe and the Pacific, she was already somewhat antiquated at the time of her commissioning. Super dreadnoughts, like the Arizona, were already being launched prior to her commissioning. Still, she was a ship of many firsts, including being the first US ship to mount anti aircraft guns.

Traditional MedicinalsEdit Company
Popular Teas from Traditional MedicinalsSee All 67 Teas
Recent Tasting Notes
I tried this tea from the Traditional Medicinals Seasonal Sampler package which comes with various other tea samples.
I personally enjoy drinking this tea, because of its sweet taste. It is relaxing and rich in bold flavor. There is a soothing effect from drinking and sort of wanting to go back to taste for more after each sip. I am thankful that God has shown me this tea because now, I can write to you: please try this! It can help you. I recommend that you taste this tea and see for yourself. I pray that God keeps you healthy always , for He is Powerful and All – Wise! Amen in Jesus precious name.
Thanks for reading.
Have a good day.
Flavors: Licorice, Sweet
Being a Singer, of the Classical Arts this Tea is literally MAGIC! The tea has an instant effect, almost as if one could "feel" the coating advertised as per the name of the product. The beautiful combination of Licorice Root & Fennel bring about an unusual but amazing taste with instant relaxing effects. If you tire your voice/throat often or simply want to show your throat some love!. This is the tea for you!
Quite like this one. I've never encountered a tisane that tasted so close to regular black tea. I'm a fan of foods that only have one ingredient, so that's a plus too.
It does taste a little fruity (shocking), green, and woodsy. I read somewhere that this is what the American colonists drank while protesting the British Tea Tax. They called it "Liberty Tea." I also found out that raspberries are only native to North America and Asia Minor, so I wound up feeling pretty patriotic while drinking this down.
I'm supposed to drink three cups of this a day to reap the health benefits. I've been averaging about two since I bought the box. I think it's helping maybe slightly? Could just be a placebo effect.
If nothing else, it's definitely a good stand-in for black tea when I'm craving it at 2:00 PM but really shouldn't be consuming caffeine.
Flavors: Fruity, Green, Wood
A very sublime tisane – extremely relaxing. I grow my own spearmint spring-fall outside in my backgarden, but it is nice to have an alternative source for a good cup. I prefer spearmint over other kinds of mint (although I like and grow other kinds of mint too). I have drank this while sick, and also it is one of my top 3 favorite bedtime relaxation tisanes ( the others are chamomile lavender & nighty night valerian – both also from Traditional Medicinals). Once you start steeping it puts out a wonderful aroma that fills a whole room! It is sweet and crisp – and feels nice and cool on the throat. Just wonderful. Organic and fair trade. Steeped for 10 minutes in boiling water. Drank plain.
This Organic Weightless Cranberry tea is what I always use right after my period or during times of extreme inflammation (or when I've had too much IV fluid after a surgery) to eliminate water weight. For use by women and men.
Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding, have a kidney disease, are under 12, or are dehydrated (as per instructions on box). The description this tea (created by another user) needs to be updated but I cannot do that until my acct is a month old, so here are the updated ingredients until I can edit it : organic fennel fruit, organic red clover, organic uva ursi leaf, organic parsley leaf, organic cleavers herb, organic hibiscus flower, organic roasted chicory root, organic cranberry fruit, organic stevia leaf. As per box instructions I use just boiled water and steep 10-15 mins, drinking 3 cups a day for 2-3 days. If you are trying to lose weight in general this tea is not for you, it is only meant to be used for relief of temporary water weight bloat.
The flavor of this tea is pleasant. The cranberry and hibiscus are the strongest tastes, giving a pleasantly tart fruit flavor. This taste intermingles with the anise flavor from the fennel, and the sweetness of the stevia to create a delicious cuppa that you will want to drink more often that you should haha. But is best to only drink it when you need to as per box instructions, as these herbs are very potent. The tea is ruby red in color and is very pretty to look at. A mainstay in my cupboard.
Extremely relaxing! The chamomile and lavender are equally balanced to create a delicate floral treat. The lemon balm is in the background. I am a big lavender fan and was worried this tea would be too weak since it is bagged -but it is incredible! Traditional Medicinals never seems to let me down!! Trouble dragging ratings on tablet – I steep it 10 mins or more, with just boiled water. I' m kinda miffed that chamomile is not an option to add to the noticed flavors box.
Flavors: Lavender
Blech, so sweet. Way too much licorice root in this tea, at least flavor-wise. I don't know if licorice root has a medicinal value?. Of course no one is drinking this for the taste anyway. It definitely took some of the pain out of my sore throat.
It didn't fend off my cold, but points for effective symptom relief.
The taste doesn't move me much one way or the other, but this does seem to be a great tea for insomnia. I try a lot of "sleep/relaxation" teas, and this is one of the most effective I've tried. It was even recommended to me by my acupuncturist, who's really experienced with all types of herbal remedies. I'll be buying this regularly as a sleep aid.
The licorice root is too strong for my liking. It pretty much overwhelmed all the other flavors, although I did steep it quite a while and it tends to get stronger over time.
I found the same thing with this tea. Personally I'd rather drink straight echinacea tea and use throat lozenges as needed.
This is a nice blend of mints, chamomile, and various herbs. I find is soothhing and it tastes very good. I will be drinking this as an every day herbal tea rather than just after meals or when I am sick.
Flavors: Cactus Flowers, Floral, Herbs, Lemongrass, Mint, Peppermint, Root Beer
One of my favorite teas. The perfectly tart cranberry blends smoothly with the strong fennel flavor. This is one of those stand-alone teas, with strong flavors, which I appreciate as I don't use sugar or milk with any of my teas.
I can honestly say that I also feel less bloated after drinking this. I'm sure not everyone will feel the difference, and perhaps it's a placebo effect, but since I love the flavor so much, I can't complain! It's just an added bonus to feel firmer.
Flavors: Cranberry, Fennel, Lemon
Absolutely delicious, I notice chamomile, sweet mint, dried flowery herbs, maybe something lemony or minty like catnip or lemon balm? Very soothing and not medicinal/yucky at all.
Flavors: Floral, Flowers, Herbs, Mint, Pepper, Peppercorn, Sweet
Bought this in winter because it seemed like a good therapeutic tea to keep on hand during cold season. Fortunately, I never needed it for medicinal purposes. As the anise/licorice flavor was so prominent, I used it a bag at a time in combination with other teas, to soften its flavor profile I don't know which ingredient soothes the throat the most, but that effect still takes place, even blended as one bag of this with five bags of other teas in one pot.
NOW—the part I never even noticed until before I drank the last bag by itself, so I could review it here: The WARNINGS!! Dunno about you, but I am so used to drinking herbal teas and blends that I forget that all the different plants which make up herbal teas HAVE DIFFERENT EFFECTS ON THE HUMAN BODY. Especially now that I'm getting older and taking daily meds, I have to start paying attention and READ THE HERBAL TEA BOX BEFORE I BUY IT, IN CASE I SHOULDN'T BLEND IT WITH MY MEDS.
This is the entire paragraph at the bottom underneath the "Supplement Facts" box:
"CONSULT YOUR HEALTHCARE PRACTITIONER prior to use: if you have low potassium levels, if you have rheumatoid arthritis, an auto-immune disorder or a progressive systemic disease such as tuberculosis, leukosis, collagenous, multiple sclerosis, AIDS or HIV infections; if you are taking immunosuppressants, diuretics, corticosteroids, cardiac glycosides such as digoxin, or potassium-depleting agents, or if you are PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING.
DO NOT USE this product if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, or impaired kidney or liver function; if you are allergic to plants in the daisy (Asteraceae) family like chamomile or plants in the parsley (Apiaceae) family such as fennel. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR USE WITH CHILDREN UNDER 12 YEARS OF AGE."
So there you have it—a reminder from me to READ EVERY HERBAL TEA BOX FOR WARNINGS, such as these. Even ones you've been drinking for ages—just in case. Fortunately for me, having one bag blended with others over a three month period, the 16 bags didn't seem to do me any harm, even though I have high blood pressure and should not have been drinking this tea.
Flavors: Anise, Cinnamon, Lemon, Lemongrass, Licorice
Gosh this taste like burn dandelion root mix with mud together. Its very earthy but i get this aftertaste i could only describe as yuck! I purchased it for its medicinals quality so lets see if it works. I am going to force myself to finish this cause i bought it, but i think i prefers yogi moon cycle better for the same purpose.
Flavors: Dandelion, Mud, Wet Earth
I've had this tea for a while, but never had to drink it up until now. I caught a little bit of a cold- although it has not progressed beyond a bit of a sore throat since I caught it three days go. My husband has more a cough along with a sore throat, but not so much for me.
In terms of taste, this is a very strong licorice tea. I don't care for the taste, but it does provide some relief. So weighing taste vs medicinal properties, I'll rate this one a 65. It's not one I drink "for fun", but it helps when I need it.
Flavors: Anise, Licorice

Album Art From Folder.jpg
I am trying to update my music library and have recently added flac support by installing Xiph Direct Show and WMP Tag Plus. I would like to add all of these files to my library with album art from Folder.jpg. What is the best way to do this? I know that Windows may change the file to a system file if I click update file info. However, I would prefer to turn off internet updating and leave my tags the way they are. Is there any way to do this? Otherwise it may be a no go for me.

I'm not sure of the program you speak of but I just manually add them to my music files in iTunes. I just download the album cover and them to to files.
This may not work for you, but that's what I do. Yeah I know I could download from iTunes but I just do it manually since I don't log into iTunes Store becaue I never use it.
Anyways I'm not sure this helps you, I just thought I'd throw it out for an idea

When I was a kid Kiss was a huge part of my musical life, hell, at one time I was even in a band with school mates and we donned our own versions of the Kiss make-up! While others looked to Stanley and Simmons for me it was always the larger than life personalities of Peter and Ace that resonated the most and indeed they were the solo albums I listened to most of all – Peter's especially opening up a whole new world of music that wasn't just straight Hard Rock.
Over the years Mr Criss put out some fine music, wrote the best (auto) biography by a Kiss member, took up acting and survived cancer. Now he's decided to retire from performing and one of his very last dates is here in Australia in May. He's also got a new Hard Rocking album on the way! I just caught up with one of my childhood heroes and found out he's a very cool guy indeed…
Peter: Hello Mark
The Rockpit: Hello Peter I hope you're well. Thank you for taking the time to talk to the Rockpit today, as an ex member of the Kiss army as a kid it's an honour to finally get to speak with you.
Peter: Oh I'm doing alright; this is my last interview so I'm getting ready to grab my milk and an Oreo cookie and settle down to watch a good movie.
The Rockpit: That sounds pretty good to me, you're relaxing at the end of the day and on this side of the world we're just waking up.
Peter: Yeah, I know and I'll be going through the same thing soon. That plane ride oh it's murder! But I'm looking forward to playing I'm very excited, that's for sure.
The Rockpit: And you're playing with some musicians from our great State of Western Australia – Sisters Doll?
Peter: Yes I am and I'm looking forward to playing with them as Bruce Kulick – he has a ball playing with them. I was concerned as I've got some pretty cool cats I've been playing with over here, but he convinced me. And when I'm over it'll be with my lead guitar player of 25 years so that made me feel a lot better. And then we've got a bunch of surprises too.
The Rockpit: That sounds great. The last ever show you will play in Australia takes place on 12th may just before you appear at the Kiss Convention on 13th and 14th. It's been a long and wonderful career, not just with Kiss; you've also got a string of great solo releases behind you too. Why did you decide that 2017 would be the year you'd call it a day for 'live' performances? Are you moving on to do other things?
Peter: You know what, I'm seventy one, that scares me when I say that (laughs), but if you're around me I'm like a fifteen year old kid, I really am. But I've had an amazing career in music; I was around in the 60's and 70's which was about the best time to be a musician. I actually saw Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison and The Beatles when I was young. I've seen the greatest of the greats perform; I grew up at a time when music was so cool. There was Bob Dylan, and things were changing – things were becoming amazing for musicians in the world. So I played clubs for 15 years, then I started the band with the guys.
Peter: I'm a big Bee Gee fan, I was watching the salute to Barry (Gibb, the last surviving Bee Gee), I've been a big fan since they started and I love that he got up there and performed and I see now all these guys from the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Rod Stewart and we're all in our 70's now, and I hate to say it but were dying out and that's so real, there's less Rock and Roll in the world. Less music in the world and it's kinda sad. So I'm 71 I'm in the best health I've been in for a while and I thought if I'm gonna do it I gotta do it now. I had male breast cancer and I beat it and that's really changed my life, and my wife also beat cancer too, so I went out I signed autographs, I wrote a book and the fans man, and you don't get this up on stage in front of 70,000 people it's just thank you, goodnight and you're gone, so you never really hear from the fans at that level, so when I connected again I got to hear their stories and they'd ask me if I'd play again or sing again, there was so much love. And when I looked around everyone was slowing down or retiring like Eric Clapton, and I wondered what I has left. I think there are a couple of books, maybe a comedy, and I have an album I've been sitting on for nine years now! And I want to finish that properly.
The Rockpit: That is so cool to hear, I think your book was the best of the Kiss biographies so to hear you have another one at least in the works is pretty cool, but another album! I loved 'One For All' and that's ten years now. I actually thought it was your best work.
Peter: Thank you, I don't get told that enough, when I wrote that one I really felt I wrote from the heart, I always try. Before my cancer though I really put down some really heavy Rock and Roll, I put down some ballads too, but it was heavier than the stuff I normally do. And then I got sick and I put it aside and I've been sat on it these last eight years. And when I moved to California I took it with me, there aren't any vocals on there yet, but I played it to a good friend and he told me that it was the best stuff he'd heard in years and I had to finish it, so when I'm over in June to play my last show in New York City I'll finish it.
The Rockpit: That sounds like it will be worth the wait. Back in 2012 when you wrote your autobiography, how was the writing process for you? Did it reveal anything to you about yourself?
Peter: I loved writing! I really enjoyed writing that book with Larry Slowman, I found it very cathartic, I really reached into my heart and soul and told as much truth… I told all the truth and nothing but the truth, so help me God (laughs). I got a great response from the fans and plenty of great feedback. But I learnt other things; I love kids – one of the books I'm writing will be a kids book, I'm more in touch with cancer now, I'm actually singing at a benefit next week. I also got more interested in family, I'm lucky to have a beautiful house and a beautiful wife. Hey I'm a street kid man, I want to bow out doing it my way, get out there and kick some ass, have some fun and say hello one last time to my Australian fans.
The Rockpit: Australia has always had a love affair with Kiss and all things Kiss.
Peter: You guys have, we did the Melbourne Symphony and I was in awe man! I'm the drummer and I'm surrounded by some serious musicians! I was pacing back and for the back stage I was so excited. Wow! You're right we do have a special connection, we do have it with plenty of other places but I do feel it so strongly when I'm there.
The Rockpit: The Kiss Symphony, a great night.
Peter: And that was, you're right but I really wanted to bow out with something a little more intimate, I really wanted that more 'nightclub' vibe, closer to the fans, where I could actually walk up to the frigging table and sing to them! And I really realised that I wanted to go back to where it all started and it all started for me in nightclubs. That's exactly how it started and exactly how I wanted to end it, I don't want to bow out on a big stage; I wanted a lot more intimacy. I didn't want the 70,000 people "Thank you and goodnight" I didn't want it that way.
The Rockpit: A beautiful way to bow out. I'm sure you'll make everyone in that room really happy.
Peter: Oh I'm going to try man, believe me! (laughs)
The Rockpit: You've done a bit of acting along with the music, I actually saw you the other day on 'Frame of Mind' which I didn't realise you were in until I saw it. Is anymore acting on the cards?
Peter: (laughs) I would like to I really had a ball doing that, I thought it was hilarious. I really did enjoy it; I did two years at acting school and loved it. I did that then got back with the guys and kind of left the acting behind, but I'll tell you now if someone called me on the phone and had a movie, I'd certainly be interested. It's a lot of fun; you just wait around a lot, a bit like being in a band. But I enjoyed it, thank you for asking, did you enjoy it. It's a whole different world.
The Rockpit: Yeah it was really cool, it's like when you see someone you know do something unexpectedly cool and you think, "Wow I never knew they could do that!" Getting back to the music, is there anything you've left unsaid? Anything that's slipped you by in the past and you wish you'd done it? Any opportunities that you wish you'd taken?
Peter: In Kiss we did such a lot of things and now we're senior rock stars I don't know, the Hall of Fame was such a big thing, and I love the other three but I'm proud of what I've achieved: I was a kid from the streets of New York City and I worked for 50 years and I'm really proud of that, that and the number one hit. Where I grew up I was a drummer and you had to know everything man, I learnt Jazz first then Soul in a 15 piece band, a bit of funk, then a kick ass Rock band and back again, so I always thought that eventually I'd make something of music, I remember when I was drumming in my first band and I out-sang the lead singer in the band and became the lead singer. (laughs) It's been a great ride.
The Rockpit: You certainly gave me some of my favourite moments in Kiss: 'Black Diamond'; 'Hard Luck Woman' just to mention a couple and then your solo album which opened up different types of music for many rock fans.
The Rockpit: I've been dying to ask you this one, it's something I always believed as a kid, but these days I'm not so sure anymore. Do you think that music can still change the world or was that just a dream we had in the 60's and 70's?
Peter: Yes, but not now, not now. When we lost John Lennon I thought it was over, actually when we lost Buddy Holly I thought the music died, but losing people like that and Elvis left a big gap, and somehow we managed to hold it all together. But now? It was quite interesting watching the MTV Bee Gee awards; I got to see a few a couple of young Rock bands that I'd never seen before and I must admit they impressed me, they were like 23, 24 and I remembered when we were that age – they had a lot of talent, and I think that talent is there, but I still haven't heard for want of better words, 'The Messiahs', they haven't come yet. Not that band that can change the world. We changed a helluva lot of things but never like The Beatles or The Stones, though I know we have a lot of fans and they are fanatical so they might disagree! But I don't hear any talent that could knock me on the floor and I would say "This is it – these guys are it!" And we're well overdue.
The Rockpit: As a musician, is it the pinnacle of a career to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
Peter: Yes. Yeah it is and I wish my Mom and Dad had been there to see it. But really what I always dreamed of was when I told my parents that I would play Maddison Square Gardens one day, and that to me was the biggest thing and still is the biggest thing I've ever done in my life. When I was 13 I told my Mom I would play there one day and when I finally did and saw my Mom and Dad in the audience of 25,000 people, my Mom and Dad crying and I'm crying even though I'm wearing make-up – it was just overwhelming. Everything up to that was crazy, everything after that was just whipped cream. I didn't really get into it to be a Rock Star, and I hate that word it's such a label, I just wanted to be a good musician and play good music. You don't think about the rewards and the pitfalls, no thoughts about living In a 22 bedroom mansion with naked girls, and having too many cars! I lived through that but you have to slow down, or it fades, there's no Rock Stars anymore, no excess no one as creative or as crazy as Clapton or Ginger Baker…
The Rockpit: If you could have been a 'Fly on the Wall' in the Studio for the creation of any great Rock album, just to witness how the magic happened, and how it all came together, what's that album for you and why?
Peter: (laughing) Wow! I would have loved to have been a 'fly on the wall' for 'The White Album', by The Beatles. Are you kidding! I would take 'Sergeant Pepper', but I think I'd take 'The White Album' – pure genius!
The Rockpit: One of the greatest albums ever and the process in those days, no sampling, no dialling up sounds, no Pro-Tools. So much effort and creativity.
Peter: Very cool, you're right; you really had to have talent (laughs) you had to be creative. You had to make do with what you had and push it. I mean I started with 4 tracks and when we got to 8 tracks – it was like "Oh my God eight tracks!" And when we got to 16 I thought we were in heaven! And now it's all computerised, all funky, it's all on my Apple and I could make an album overnight if I felt like it. But there's nothing like the old days, that splicing of tape, the whole sounds of what you created, it's kinda missing today. Too modern! Too high tech for me!
The Rockpit: And we always close with an easy one Peter: 'What is the meaning of life?"
Peter: What is the meaning of life? (laughs) To me the meaning of life is 'God'. It's just that simple man, those three letters and I give up thanks every day for my life and my three cats! And the fan letters I wake up to are truly a blessing. They're not always that positive of course there are cynical people out there in the world, I picture this crazy guy in a black room writing everything bad about everybody because he don't like no-one – he's the 'Nowhere Man"! But you take life as it comes and shut out that negativity.
The Rockpit: I must admit I never thought of asking you about your cats!
Peter: Oh sure, they talk to me, I love them. We've got a girl we adopted 7 years ago from a shelter 'Fanny', it was very sad she was kept in this little cage. Then we have two Maine Coons: one called 'Bando' and one called 'Rouse' and then we have a stray cat called 'Buddy'. So yeah I've got my cats around me, they keep me happy.
The Rockpit: It's been so cool to talk to you today Peter I could go on all day! Thanks so much for taking the time for The Rockpit.
Peter: You are an absolute very cool gentleman, thank you so much for having me to talk to you. Let's meet when I get over, I'd love to say hi.
The Rockpit: Let's do it, thanks again: you can get back to those Oreo's now!
Peter: (laughing) You remembered! You're very funny! Thanks man, have a great night.

The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of St. Louis said Thursday that it will pay $2 million to settle 18 claims of sexual abuse against five priests and a nun.
The archdiocese said it hopes to settle 16 more cases.
About one-third of the $2 million will be paid by insurance, the rest from archdiocese reserve funds, said Bernard Huger, an attorney for the archdiocese.
Under the settlement, which involved allegations of misconduct during the 1970s and '80s, the archdiocese also agreed to educate children about what is appropriate touching, tell employees how to recognize child sexual abuse and post the state child abuse hot line number in all church workplaces.
The $2 million is separate from more than $1.6 million paid by the archdiocese in June to a family who said a priest sexually abused their son.

Miles Teller Car Accident: Actor's Truck Flips Over After Hit By Uber
Miles Teller got into a car accident Thursday night which resulted in his truck flipping over. The actor wasn't injured in the crash, but the incident almost led to a brawl between him and the other driver.
Teller was reportedly driving with his girlfriend in the San Fernando Valley when his Bronco was struck by an Uber and subsequently flipped upside down. According to TMZ, the enraged actor then emerged from his vehicle screaming, "You f***ed up my truck," and attempted to approach the Uber driver but was held back by other people at the scene. Teller and his girlfriend weren't hurt, but two passengers riding in the Uber were taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
Law enforcement told the site that the accident wasn't Teller's fault, but the Uber driver made an unsafe left turn. It's also said that drugs and alcohol weren't a factor. It should be noted, the actor was involved in a much more serious crash in 2007 when he was 20-years-old. Teller has recounted the traumatic experience in previous interviews, explaining how his friend lost control of their car while driving 80 mph. The vehicle flipped over eight times and the actor was ejected 50 feet out the window. He still has scars on his face and neck from the crash. Gossip Cop has reached out to a rep for the actor for more information about Thursday's accident.
UPDATE: Teller took to Twitter on Friday to comment about the accident. He wrote, "Me and @keleighsperry are okay. I hope the other passengers are as well. The other driver pulled into oncoming traffic and bad accident was unavoidable. This woman's irrational and ignorant decision put our lives and her passengers in very real danger. Happy we could walk away."

Sermon Audio
June 7, 2015 First Sunday After Trinity
The Water Blushed
St. John 2:1-11
As is the case with so many Bible stories, the account of our Lord's turning water into wine in the second chapter of the Gospel of John has an interesting history.
Ephrem the Syrian was born in the first decade of the fourth century in a place near the modern border of Turkey and Syria. He was a prolific writer of sermons, hymns – more than 400 of which are still around today -- and theologies.
In his writing he revels in the Mesopotamian/Persian tradition of mystery symbolism and, like many others of his time, in searching for hidden meanings in biblical texts. In the story before us, he decided, the six large stone water pots represent the womb of the virgin through which the Christ entered the world.
If only the apostle John were around so we could test that idea today.
Others once claimed that the story was a Christianized adaptation of the Dionysus myth. Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, purveyed the surfeit of mirth and joy – of abundant life – that comes with intoxication.
The church, it was said, purloined that myth and recast it as the water-into-wine story. Few, if any, push that particular brand of malarkey today.
Yet many still refuse to accept the biblical accounts of our Lord's miracles. The Enlightenment and subsequent idolizing of science have made us more rationalistic than our ancestors, not less so. Simply stated, if we can't understand a thing, it can't be true.
This crowd must have a hard time indeed with John's gospel, and in particular with chapters 2-11, which have been called the "book of signs." The balance of the gospel is termed the "book of glory."
Chapters 2-4 form a sub-unit that focuses on the end of the old and the beginning of the new. The old purifying baths of water give way to the new wine of the kingdom of God. The old temple yields to the new temple that is the resurrected Christ.
We find a dialogue that reveals the new birth as the symbol of the new creation. We observe the difference between the water from Jacob's well and the living water from Christ.
And we note the contrast between the worship of the Jews on Mount Zion and the Samaritans on Mount Gerizim on the one hand and worship "in spirit and truth" on the other.
Our text for today portrays the beginning of Jesus' public ministry . . . and it needs no allegorizing or embellishment to yield many nuggets of theological gold.
For openers, we see that Jesus is no hermit. Those expecting an ascetic Messiah who would cloister Himself in a place such as Qumran would have been scandalized to find Him at a party in the first place and contributing to the tipsiness in the second.
The new wine of the new birth gladdens the hearts of those who imbibe it. God does not endorse drunkenness but neither does he condemn alcohol. And for the record, those who insist the word here translated "wine" refers to non-alcoholic grape juice have not consulted Ephesians 5(:18): "And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit."
No warning is needed where no danger exists. When God provides for us in abundance, whether of food or drink or any manner of things, it is up to us to exercise temperance in our use of that provision and allot the excess for the benefit of others in need rather than glut ourselves.
Jesus' mother and His disciples are also present, and so we conclude that a relative or close friend of the family is marrying. Mary may have been involved in arrangements. She would not have been responsible for providing wine but she exhibits a desire to avoid embarrassment that might fall on the groom.
A wedding celebration typically lasted a week and the groom was responsible for underwriting its cost. Running out of wine would have been a grievous social sin – and might have exposed him to legal action by the bride's family.
Mary's intercession raises a question: Did she expect a miracle? Probably not; there was no precedent. This was Jesus' first. In all likelihood, Mary was a widow by this time. Joseph disappeared from the narrative after the incident at the temple when Jesus was 12 years old.
Jesus is referred to as both the carpenter's son and the carpenter. Mary would have relied heavily on her eldest son and had no doubt learned to trust in His resourcefulness. God must have been a handy Guy to have around.
We have before us the first of what have traditionally been seen as His seven signs in the Fourth Gospel. John does not report as many miracles as Matthew, Mark and Luke. Instead he selects a few and weaves around them narrative to demonstrate that Jesus of Nazareth – less than 10 miles from Cana, where this wedding is set – is the Christ.
In the original, the evangelist ignores words translated "miracles" and "wonders" and sticks to semeion, or "sign." He is determined that we understand that Jesus' mighty works are not naked displays of power, magic tricks done to wow the masses.
No, the Lord is offering these evidences of His wonder-working power to point to deeper realities behind them . . . for those who look on them with the eyes of faith. Yet considered from another point of view, the signs are spectacular, even by the standard of miracles. Jesus doesn't merely turn water into wine; He turns it into superior wine.
We will follow as He not only heals the royal official's son but does so from afar; not only restores the use of his legs to a lame man but one who had been crippled for 38 years; not only gives sight to a blind man but one who had been blind from birth; not only raises Lazarus from the grave but waits until he has been four days dead, beyond the time a man's spirit has left his body according to Jewish teaching.
Why up the ante? Why overrule nature in such jaw-dropping ways? So magnificent are these signs that those who see them and continue to refuse to believe in Him are without excuse. They condemn themselves.
His signs reveal His glory. John concludes the passage by referring us back to the prologue: "the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth" (1:14). Jesus would display His greatest glory in His resurrection and ascension but – be not deceived – He manifested that glory in His every step upon this earthly coil.
Did all who beheld His works admire His glory? Only those with the eyes of faith. At the wedding, the servants saw but did not understand; the disciples saw and believed. We will no doubt recall this first miracle when we arrive at the author's purpose statement in chapter 20:
"And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name" (vv. 30-31).
I get a chill when I read those words.
Much has been made of Mary's request and Jesus' enigmatic answer, and in particular His form of address: "Woman." In the context it is not discourteous but neither is it an endearment, the way of speech to be expected of a loving son addressing his mother. It's on the sharp side.
What has Mary done? She has treated her son as has been her custom in his youth and early adulthood. Now that He has embarked on His public ministry she must approach Him according to a new paradigm.
With Peter and others of the Lord's intimates, even Mary must understand that she is approaching the God of all creation and Savior of the world. She has presumed on the blood tie. His reply -- literally, "What to Me and to you?" – amounts to a mild rebuke.
Yes, she bore Him and nursed Him, clothed Him and fed Him, yet not here only but throughout He keeps a measure of distance between Himself and His mother. In one exchange, a woman in a crowd cries out:
"Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!" Jesus responds, "More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!" (Luke 11:27b-28)
How trying must this be for a mother; how excruciating for this mother.
On the cross, He will provide for her future, assigning this same apostle John as her guardian, but make no mistake, His first allegiance is to His heavenly Father, to whom He will soon return. Blessed are you among women, Mary . . . but you are not divine.
John Calvin wrote, "How necessary this warning became in consequence of the enormous and abominable superstitions which followed is known well enough. For Mary has been made Queen of Heaven, the Hope, the Life and Salvation of the world; and in fact, some went so far that they just about stripped Christ naked and adorned Mary with his spoils . . .
"As if she had not all the honor that belongs to her without being made a goddess! As if it were honoring her to adorn her with sacrilegious titles and put her in Christ's place!"
Mary is thinking pragmatically and Jesus theologically. The Old Testament prophets foretold that when Messiah was come the wine would flow abundantly. Yes, Messiah is come, but He has not yet been exalted, and only then will the new covenant age be inaugurated.
Jesus, meanwhile, is correcting the shortcomings of the anonymous bridegroom in our passage. He will ascend and return to His Father as the perfect messianic bridegroom. He will preside over the eternal wedding banquet that is the age of eternity yet to come.
Well, Mary is not divine but she is an exemplar of human faith. She does not answer Him back; instead she tells the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it." She puts her uncompromising faith in Him – not in her son but in the Son. Rebuked for approaching Him too casually, she responds by trusting Him perfectly.
In this exchange we see the prototype of a pattern that will run through the Fourth Gospel. The Lord initially turns down a request, then appears to relent and provide the assistance requested as He deems fitting, often after a demonstration of the petitioner's faith.
At Jesus' first miracle, the spotlight must remain on Him and His glory, not Mary's. We must see the disciples' faith, including Mary's.
And perhaps we are meant to see something less obvious. When we ask something of our Lord in prayer, as we await His answer, we should ask something of ourselves: Have we put our trust – all of our trust – in Him?
We often ask the Lord for something on the assumption that He is obligated to supply our need rather than putting the request before Him and believing implicitly that He in His omniscience will do what is best.
In our Office of Morning Prayer we pray the words of St. Chrysostom: "Fulfil now, O Lord, the desires and petitions of thy servants, as may be most expedient for them . . ." Or, in the words of Christ: "Not My will but Thine be done."
Just as faith without works is dead, petition without obedience is empty.
The vessels containing water for ceremonial washings are costly items of stone, which is less likely to admit ceremonial impurity than earthenware pots. The Talmud, the Jewish commentary on the Hebrew Scriptures, lists 1,001 regulations for ritual washings, more than in any other category.
These six stone pots would have accommodated a total of 150 gallons. When Jesus turns the water into wine He signals a seismic shift from law to grace, from life to life more abundantly. Filling them "to the brim" leaves no room for the old things and the old ways. To borrow a verse from Paul:
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17).
A former inmate named Harold Morris reacted to that verse in this way: "The promise of 2 Corinthians 5:17 is that a person in Christ becomes a new creature. That included Convict 62345. Old habits and attitudes were replaced as the Spirit of God worked in my life.
"The vengeance that I had nourished for five years and the rebellious spirit that had been a driving force in my life relaxed their grip when Christ took control. Little by little he replaced my hatred by his love.
"Sometimes I lay in the prison yard looking at the sky and relishing the joy and peace that I'd found in Christ. The bars and fences were still there, as were the guards with their high-powered rifles. But I had an inner strength I'd never known before – the very presence of Christ."
It is left to the "master of the feast" – we might call him the "chief steward" – to reveal that this new wine is far better than what the guests had already consumed. The point is not that those guests are too drunk to notice the higher quality.
The point is that Jesus has reversed the order of things; what is to come is superior to what it will replace.
This is "the beginning of signs Jesus did," perhaps referring us back to 1:1, "In the beginning was the Word . . ." and the new creation theme. As the first sign, it presages those that will follow by introducing the dispensation of grace the Christ has come to establish. As we saw in the prologue, the law of Moses must give way to the grace of Christ.
The God who was in the beginning in Genesis, who was before all things, who created all things, has power over all He has made. The God of creation is the God of re-creation. In the felicitous phrase of William Temple, who was archbishop of Canterbury, "The modest water saw its God and blushed."
Does this event, this sign, seem remote to you? It did not to St. Augustine. He wrote:
"He who made the wine at this wedding does the same thing every year in the vines. As the water which the servants put into the water-pots was turned into wine by the Lord, so that which the clouds pour down is turned into wine by the same Lord." Amen.

Manly Wade Wellman has found his way into the canon of American gothic short fiction. Owls Hoot in the Daytime and Other Omens brings together some of his most intriguing and hair-raising tales of terror and danger. Known for his portrayal of the American Appalachians, Manly Wade Wellman has carved out a niche as one of the greats in science-fiction and fantasy. Brian Troxell's performance of Wellman's work is truly chilling. Troxell seems to have an innate understanding of the sense of mounting dread that characterizes Wellman's deeply unnerving work.
Owls Hoot in the Daytime & Other Omens is the 5th and final volume of Night Shade Books' five volume "Selected Stories of Manly Wade Wellman." This volume contains all of the John the Balladeer stories (sometimes better known as Silver John), Manly's most famous character.

Template talk:Leaders of Lithuania since 1919

Presidents or First Secretaries[edit]
Somehow the LKP First Secretaries should not be appearing with the Lithuanian flag next to them, no? —PētersV (talk) 17:54, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
- Somehow LKP First Secretaries of puppet governments should not be confused with real presidents? And are "leaders" installed by force really "leaders" at all? And perhaps one should not imply a continuity of Lithuania (independent) to Lithuania (SSR) to Lithuania (independence restored)? FYI, we split presidents and first secretaries to separate templates for Latvia. —PētersV (talk) 14:51, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Social Networks Don't Need Management's Blessing

Thomson eyes Gers dominance
Kevin Thomson sees no reason why Rangers cannot dominate Scottish football for years to come.
Last Updated: 19/06/09 5:44pm
Kevin Thomson sees no reason why Rangers cannot dominate Scottish football for years to come after wrestling the title from Celtic last season.
Celtic missed out on a fourth consecutive SPL title in May courtesy of Gers' 3-0 win over Dundee United on the final day of the season.
Rangers have now been crowned Scottish champions a whopping 52 times. 10 more times than their city rivals, a gap Thomson does not believe will be closed anytime soon.
The former Hibernian man believes the way that the SPL is shaped that Tony Mowbray's Celtic will find it a difficult job to finish top of the table in the coming years.
"The way Scottish football is at the moment, the team that's in the ascendancy is really hard to overcome," explained Thomson.
"I think the team who wins the league can go on and win the league year after year after year.
"With the squad we have at this club, and the manager we have at the club and the fantastic players we have, there is no reason why we can't go and win back to back titles.
"I'm pretty sure the quality of the squad is more than capable of doing that."
Cruciate injury
A promising start to the season was brought to an abrupt end when Thomson suffered a cruciate injury back in November.
He is now back on the road to recovery and expected to return early in the new campaign.
"I've had a wee taste of it and felt I played my part, although I would rather have played a part nearer the end of the season," he continued.
"To have a taste of it, to have a winner's medal - hopefully that will be the first of many. I'll be busting a gut to make sure of that."

I have loads of ideas for my house floating around in my head all the time. However, lack of time & funding delays bringing these ideas to fruition. BUT at last, an idea that has been bouncing around in my head FOREVER was made a reality this past weekend! I give you....
The R Family Command Center!!!! TaDa!!
Yea!!!, A place for the kids backpacks, a place to write messages to each other, a big family calendar (each of us are assigned a different color--yes I'm THAT nerdy), a home for the keys, a cool clock to hopefully keep us on schedule & my fun FHE board that tracks who's in charge of what for family nights.
I LOVE it!!!! (thanks honey for staying up late to get it just right!)
Yeah, I know its not February yet, but I wanted to start FRESH in a new month. :)

DAILYKENN.com -- There were stabbings, beatings, and shootings.
One man — Anthony King — lost his life.
Neighbors said such is not the norm for the community country club.
Tucked away in a white suburban neighborhood is Lakewood County Club in the Mayberry-esque community of Salemburg. The town is 88.91% white.
A black family apparently rented the clubhouse for a reunion.
Authorities say alcohol contributed to hot tempers that led to a massive brawl. About 100 people were at the event.
One report claimed multiple people were shot and stabbed.
Police were called to pacify the melee. One deputy was cut while breaking up the fight.
Do black people brawl every time they congregate? Of course not. Were that true, every black church service would end with two parades: One to the hospital and another to the jail.
The frequency of violence among Africans in America is, however, a phenomenon worthy of note. The national media won't touch it.
According to DailyMail.co.uk:
Three people were shot, one person was stabbed and two people were beaten during the massive fight, the sheriff's office said.
One victim, Anthony King, of Roseboro, died a few hours later from the injuries he sustained in the shocking incident.

Another one of the major selling points in this particular condo was the large screened porch. The screens allowed our pets to get some quality outside time without me having to worry that they would run away.
This screened porch featured concrete floors and a storage closet. Here it is when I first moved in:
Sean built a custom work table to do small projects on
We built a planter out of a pallet.
There wasn't a whole lot of room for improvements out here, but we used the space to create many of the improvements we made in the rest of the house.

Welcome to The Shoreham Inn! Come on in and have a look around our website. We look forward to having you as our guest overnight, for dinner, or both! Here are the answers to some frequently asked questions – please don't hesitate to get in touch if your question isn't answered.
First things first, we are proud of having Green Hotel status thanks to the hard work of several people here at the Inn, and an ongoing commitment to the environment and what we can do to do our part.
Secondly, since our mothers don't have access to our website, we'll have to do our own bragging:
The whole town of Shoreham (including The Shoreham Inn) is featured on Chronicles "Main Streets and Backroads of New England" program (November 2015) Watch the video here.
The Shoreham Inn in The UK Times:
"Just rustic enough and just chic enough, it's the best gastropub you never found in the UK, with ambiance and food to match" The Times, September 2015
Best Historic Hostelry for 2015 as chosen by Yankee Magazine!
The Shoreham Inn meets CNN! (October 2013)
The Shoreham Inn in the Boston Globe:
" …the Shoreham is a favorite spot of bikers. Plop down in one of the Adirondack chairs with a glass of locally made Switchback Ale on tap and you immediately understand the attraction after a day of biking….Dominic Francis showed off his culinary skills that evening…." Boston Globe June 2, 2013
The Shoreham Inn in the New York Times:
"Smoke wafted from the chimney, and two benches in front sat empty. I opened the red front door and to my surprise, about a dozen people were inside, waiting for dinner and sipping wine. The warm smell of comfort food wafted from the restaurant. The inn was exactly what I had imagined: creaky wooden floors, wood-beamed ceilings and a living room with cozy couches and a piano." New York Times October 18, 2009
The Shoreham Inn in The Wall Street Journal:
"The Shoreham Inn has an excellent restaurant. The menu changes frequently, but has included top-notch burgers, whole baked fish and an array of interesting desserts such as Banoffi pie, a banana, cream and toffee concoction" Wall Street Journal July 16, 2009
Breakfast is usually served from 7:30 – 9:30am. If you would like breakfast earlier or later, do not hesitate to ask and we will do our best to accommodate you. There is coffee and tea available downstairs after 6:30am. If you have any special dietary requirements, let us know. If you are here visiting friends or family and would like to have them join you for breakfast please let us know, we'd be happy to serve you all. There would be a $10 per person supplement for extra breakfasts.
As you can see on the Gastropub page, our pub is open for dinner Thursday – Monday nights. If you are planning to stay with us Tuesday or Wednesday nights, we would be happy to get you drinks and snacks while you are here. If you would be interested in having dinner on those nights we can recommend some great restaurants in the area. Alternatively, if you would like to discuss the possibility of having dinner cooked for you here, this will need to be planned for when you make your reservation.
Occasionally guests bring their own alcohol to the Inn. Because we are a licensed premises, we cannot allow you to drink your own alcohol in the public spaces during the hours that the pub is open to the public.

We are wireless

The Fort Ticonderoga Ferry runs from early May until late October, taking you between Vermont to New York. It is a seven minute crossing and the ferry runs continuously back and forth. The ferry dock is located about 5 miles from the Inn. The ferry runs from 7:45am – 5:45pm seven days a week. During July and August it is open until 7:45pm.

If I look at the places in western/atlantic Europe where R1a exceeds 5% (in particular Auvergne, Cantabria - Scottish R1a might be of Viking origin, but what speaks against that is the fact that the distribution of R1a in Scotland is non-consistenst with other typically Germanic markers), it certainly begs the question if there isn't also a small Celtic component to R1a. I have no idea as to when this component arrived - wether it was with Proto-Celtic speakers, or wether it arrived the spread of iron-working across the Celtic-speaking world: either factors would have been from areas where a small concentration of R1a would make sense. The problem however, if assuming that these hotspots in formerly Celtic lands are indeed of Celtic origin, is explaining why they appear like exactly that: local peaks.
One general observation I would make here is - regarding R1a as a whole in Europe, and regarding the Slavic migrations: if you look at the situation, there seem to be two layers of R1a penetration: the first, which seems to explain levels in excess of 10% - seems to be originated with the Corded Ware Culture, whereas the second layer seems to correspond with the Slavic migrations.

Manchester United v Chelsea [Team Sheets]
Described by some as "El Boringo" – both Manchester United and Chelsea come into this game in a woeful state.
Louis van Gaal is on his last legs at United and a Chelsea win could spell the end of the Dutchman's management career at Old Trafford.
There are reports that even if Manchester United win today, Louis van Gaal will leave the club having already quit twice (reportedly).
Chelsea are led by interim coach Guus Hiddink in just his second game in charge in a second spell at the club.
The Blues were held by Watford 2-2 at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Cesc Fabregas misses out with reports of a transfer request.
Diego Costa is suspended for Chelsea having picked up five yellow cards.
Eden Hazard starts up front for Chelsea like he did against Spurs. Manchester United restore Wayne Rooney to the starting line-up.
Mega price boost for new Betfair customers: 6/1 Man United or 12/1 Chelsea.
