The former despotic regime's armed forces suppressed the anti-regime demonstrations of the revolutionary Iranian nation. In that year; Tehran University, mosques, streets, and pavements, especially Enqelab and Shohadaa Squares had turned into the major revolutionary centers. On September 8, 1978 AD, the mercenaries of Shah's despotic regime slaughtered the revolutionary people at Shohadaa Square, ruthlessly martyring a large number of men, women, and children.
On November 4, 1978 AD, Tehran University and its surrounding streets were the scene of Shah regime mercenaries' attacks against pupils, students, and people. On February 1, 1979, people of Tehran accorded a unique welcome to the Father of Islamic Revolution, late Imam Khomeini (May his soul rest in peace). Millions of people gathered throughout a distance of thirty kilometers to welcome the arrival of the Father of Islamic Revolution, late Imam Khomeini (May his soul rest in peace). Ten days later, on February 11, 1979, the despotic Pahlavi regime was toppled and the Islamic Revolution triumphed under the leadership and guidance of late Imam Khomeini (May his soul rest in peace). Thereafter, Tehran has always witnessed people's enthusiastic presence in different social and political scenes.
On November 4, 1979 AD, Muslim and revolutionary students took over the US den of espionage in Tehran, which was referred to as the Second Revolution by the Founder of Islamic Republic of Iran, late Imam Khomeini (May his soul rest in peace).
In the months prior to victory of Islamic Revolution, the major streets and squares of Tehran were the scene of massive protests by the revolutionary people. Following the victory of Islamic Revolution, people of Tehran, on a number of occasions, also held gatherings to approve the Islamic Revolution and to voice support for its ideals.
After the victory of Islamic Revolution, the glorious Friday Prayers are convened at Tehran University in the presence of large numbers of worshippers.
Friday Prayers change the atmosphere of Tehran on Friday noon, establishing further amity among people and granting spirituality to Tehran's atmosphere. Moreover, Friday Prayers raise an appropriate opportunity for the officials of sacred Islamic system to analyze and study the main topics of importance of Iran and the world for people.
On September 22, 1980, Tehran's Mehrabad Airport was pounded by the Iraqi Ba'th minority regime's warplanes. Concurrently, the fully equipped army of Saddam's regime raided the western and southern cities of Iran. Although Tehran was far from warfronts, this city experienced major changes throughout the imposed war. Large numbers of refugees headed for this city from southern and western regions of Iran, in addition to many Iraqi refugees, who opposed Saddam's regime. The imposed war brought about many detrimental consequences, while Tehran was bombarded by the enemy warplanes time and again. Upon the termination of the imposed war, a fresh era began for construction and development of the country.
Given that the people of a number of villages and cities in Iran were suffering from disadvantages and shortages resulting from the policies of Pahlavi regime's suppressive policies, many headed for Tehran and other large cities in the early years after the victory of Islamic Revolution. In addition to the detrimental impacts of the imposed war, the phenomenon of irregular migration imposed numerous problems on Tehran. Despite all of Tehran's problems in the past three decades, this city has tried to maintain its identity, while concurrently turning into one of the most beautiful cities of the world. Elimination of shantytowns, which were considered as the place of residence of low-income families, and their transformation into beautiful green areas and parks; fair distribution of urban facilities across the southern and northern regions of Tehran; construction of highways, subway stations, huge buildings and towers; expansion of educational and cultural centers; and enhancement of inner-city and outer-city green areas, are part of the activities which have been carried out in Tehran in the past three decades.
Currently, the city of Tehran has accommodated more than ten million people. Naturally, transportation of these people leads to traffic congestions and air pollution. However, the location of Tehran on the foothills of Alborz Mountain Range, and presence of several summer quarters in the vicinity of this city has distinguished Tehran from many other populous cities in the world.
Tehran's surrounding summer quarters are some of the most interesting tourist attraction sites in the vicinity of Tehran. Maybe for this reason, as of ancient times, any traveler who has visited Tehran has allocated part of his travelogue to description of Tehran's scenic summer quarters. People of Tehran have always been keen to attend these summer quarters in every opportunity that has been raised, especially throughout the weekends. This is because they can attend these summer quarters by covering a short distance.
We allocate the last part of this discussion to introduction of a book on Tehran, titled: "Tehran at a glance". This book has been penned by a number of authors and has been published by the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance, in the year 1992 AD. It includes tens of attractive photos on the city of Tehran. The book also covers valuable information in Farsi and English languages, coupled with poems from renowned Iranian poets. This book is highly appropriate for tourists, who visit Tehran.

Brendan Rodgers: Daniel Sturridge is fitter now than he has been over the last 18 months
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers believes striker Daniel Sturridge is the fittest he has been for 18 months, but will still handle him with caution.
The England striker, who spent most of the summer undergoing rehabilitation in the United States, returned to full training with the rest of the squad this week after recovering from a hip operation in May.
He will not be ready for Saturday's match against Manchester United at Old Trafford but his impending return will boost a goal-shy squad which has scored just two goals in four matches and none in their last two.
"There is no timeline as to when he will be fit to participate in the game but he is obviously back in training, which is good," said Rodgers.
"He looked really sharp in training, probably the best he's looked fitness-wise for 18 months, and it will be really good when he gets back.
"I can never say that (he is over the worst of his injuries) because I don't want to sit here and something happens in a couple of months' time.
"I can only look at what I see and from my experiences in the past I don't want to put any timeline on him coming back.
"I am grateful for the work done in America, for our own medical team who have done a brilliant job to do everything they possibly could to get Daniel back to a level of fitness.
"He has worked hard. He has joined in with the group and we will take it from there, day-by-day."
Liverpool go into Saturday's game having been humiliated 3-0 at home by West Ham before the international break which saw them concede their first goals of the season.
Having only scored twice in four matches - with those coming in the opening two games - the side are also struggling up front.
Last season they went to Old Trafford and enjoyed the majority of chances only to lose 3-0, but Rodgers is confident there will be no repeat of the shambolic defensive performance against the Hammers.
Dejan Lovren came in for most criticism as his mistake led to the crucial second goal but his manager has backed the Croatia international, who endured a tough start to his Liverpool career last season, to bounce back.
"Like all the players know we performed below our level in that game but it was a collective," added Rodgers.
"We can't isolate any performance on to one player. Dejan knows he made a mistake and you have to live with that as a player.
"We never stick the blame on to one player. We fell below the standards in that game.
"In his first three games he showed he has that quality and consistency to defend well, so the key is letting go of the mistake and showing your character."
Liverpool will be without suspended playmaker Philippe Coutinho on Saturday after his red card against West Ham, so striker Danny Ings or winger Jordon Ibe are in contention to start.

When actor Robert De Niro attempted to screen "Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Conspiracy" at his Tribeca Film Festival, the media lambasted him. The festival "sold out to anti-vaccine crackpots," declared the L.A. Times.
With filmmakers threatening to pull out of the festival if "Vaxxed" was screened, De Niro reluctantly withdrew the film, but not his support. "You must see it," De Niro told the Today Show.
In the documentary, a top government scientist blows the whistle on his agency, exposing what appears to be shocking misconduct with potentially far-reaching effects on public health. But that's difficult to discern from media headlines.
"Anti-Vaccination Lunacy Won't Stop," blared the Wall Street Journal.
"Closer to horror film than documentary," wrote the Washington Post.
Amidst these harsh reviews – which focus on the film's controversial director – the whistleblower's revelations have gone largely overlooked.
Children who receive the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine earlier are at greater risk for autism, and the government withheld data establishing this link. That's according to whistleblower Dr. William Thompson, a top scientist at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Over a ten-month period in 2013-2014, Thompson provided internal CDC documents to, and had many phone conversations with, Brian Hooker, the parent of an autistic child. Unbeknownst to Thompson, Hooker, who's also a scientist, recorded their conversations.
In one of those calls, Thompson said the withheld CDC data showed the link between earlier MMR vaccination and autism was strongest among African American boys.
What this was suggesting was that among the blacks, the ones that were getting vaccinated earlier were more likely to have autism.
While Thompson's whistleblowing seems newsworthy, media reports have instead focused on the director of "Vaxxed," Andrew Wakefield, who makes on-camera appearances throughout the film.
Wakefield is a controversial British doctor whose medical license was revoked. In 1998 he co-authored a study on the possible link between the MMR vaccine and autism, sparking a firestorm. The Lancet, the medical journal that published the study, retracted it in 2010. Later that year Wakefield lost his medical license.
These marks against Wakefield seem to have given the media license to dismiss his film, and Thompson's whistleblowing.
Mark Crispin Miller, a media critic and professor at New York University, agrees with De Niro that "Vaxxed" deserves a viewing – not just because of what's in the film, but also what's been said about it by the media.
This mammoth propaganda drive against ["Vaxxed"] is a major threat to free expression in this country: a threat that isn't coming from the right, but from our "free press," and all too many liberals.

The Syrian Electronic Army is at it again, after targeting other big organizations like the NewYork Times, the habitual hackers have now published a reported of one million user credentials from business site Forbes.com. According to Re/code reports the hackers posted various messages to its Twitter account claiming responsibility , they also shared a screenshot of the site's publishing system and indicating it accessed a Forbes employee's accounts in order to do so. Forbes, has as well admitted to the compromise, prompting users to change their passwords and asked them to be on high alert. The site has since returned to normal, but the company says it's in contact with law enforcement to identify exactly what happened.

We have not experienced such a magnitude of hackery in Africa so far (not that there are no big companies to target), but high vigilance is required on our side as well.

I had been eating Special K for just over a week and was significantly underwhelmed. I couldn't continue it because it left my stomach extremely bloated and uncomfortable. Unless you want a stomach full of gas, don't eat this cereal! Opt for a genuinely nutrituous breakfast (e.g. porridge, natural yoghurt with fruit)that's not going to leave you feeling like a big bloated hog.

A Modern Alice in Wonderland?
Those of you who are fans of I.B, Nosey's off-the-wall interviews will be right at home with Miss Mae's highly imaginative Ahoy Gum Drop! Those who aren't, well, here is your chance to experience the inspired lunacy of characters who occupy Gum Drop Island and environs ... a fun ride for the whole family. Now, if you want a nice, neat, linear story, well, you might want to look elsewhere. But if you want a literary carnival ride that takes you places that you can only dream about, then you've found your tome. Follow the protagonist down the rabbit hole into a world of controlled chaos, filled with whacky characters and strange adventures ... it is kinda like Uncle Wiggily meets Baron Von Munchausen ... or maybe Peter Pan meets the Matrix.
Cudos to Mr. McCuen for bringing all the whacky characters to life with an amazing array of voices and dialects. He is an accomplished reader and actor. Good find, there Miss Mae.
A fun ride with a sweet message (in more ways than one) that doesn't take itself too seriously ... plenty of winks and nods to the reader that keep it all in good fun.
- Christopher Hudson

The 11-race card with a total purse of $1.05 million was composed entirely of horses either born on Maryland breeding farms or sired by state stallions.(Chart, Equibase)
Theodore W. Hoover's Sumerset, a 30-to-1 longshot, overtook Lightning Paces down the stretch to win by a neck in the $200,000 Maryland Million Classic, the feature race in the 16th running of the Maryland Million at Pimlico. The 4-year old son of Allen's Prospect, winless since taking an allowance at Laurel in January, beat a field that included Concerned Minister, the 4-to-5 favorite, 2000 Classic winner Testing, and Lightning Paces, a winner of four straight. ``I was just hoping the horse would run well,'' jockey Jeremy Rose said. ``I had never worked the horse or been on the horse, so I was just trying to feel him out and see how he wanted to run. He surprised me.'' Sitting fourth along the back stretch, Sumerset began to make his move around the final turn, overtaking Concerned Minister, Big Becker and, finally, Lightning Paces to complete the 1 3/16 miles in 1:57.2. Sumerset, who finished fourth in consecutive races at Delaware Park, paid $63.60, $26.00 and $11.20. Lightning Paces paid $13.60 and $7.00, and P Day paid $2.60. Testing finished fourth, and Concerned Minister was seventh. Timothy Ritchey, who recently took over Sumerset's training, said changing the horse's shoes, equipment and environment paid dividends. ``I saw a few things that we needed to change right off the bat, and obviously it helped,'' Ritchey said. ``We didn't think we could beat the bottom horse (Concerned Minister), but we did think we could hit the board.'' Other winners on the card included Docent, in the Sweepstakes; Bell Visage, in the Starter Handicap; Night Breeze, in the Lassie; Case of the Blues, in the Distaff; Along Came Mary, in the Oaks; Stal Quest, in the Ladies; Pal's Partner, in the Nursery; Elberton, in the Turf; Jorgie Stover in the Sprint; and Blazing Colors, in the Handicap.

mod_pagespeed for non technical folk!
I am looking at the possibility of implementing mod_pagespeed (which is apparently possible on my awful GoDaddy shared hosting).
Having had a not too great experience testing a couple of cache based plugins a little while ago, I wanted to check here to see if there are any negative implications involved in trying it.
Is it simply that if I don't see any benefit I can re-edit the .htaccess and disable it, no harm no foul, or is it the case that I will have a significant amount of damage control to do if I decide to disable it?

MANILA, PHILIPPINES — President Obama said a 10-year agreement signed Monday to give the U.S military greater access to Philippine bases will help promote peace and stability in the region and that he hopes China's dominant power will allow its neighbors to prosper on their own terms.
Signed as Obama arrived in Manila, the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement will give American forces temporary access to selected military camps and allow them to preposition fighter jets and ships. Although the deal is being perceived as a U.S. effort to counter Chinese aggression in the region, Obama said his message to Beijing is that America wants to partner with China in upholding international law.

The covered university base salary is increasing from $60,000 to $61,000, and the rate per $1,000 of coverage above the university covered salary is increasing from $5.95 to $6.20. The amount you need to pay to cover your full salary depends on your years of service and salary.
For example, if you are currently paying to cover $75,000 in annual salary you are paying: $75,000 (annual salary) - $60,000 (U-M covered base salary) = $15,000 / 12 x .00595 = $7.43 per month
To cover the same amount in salary beginning January 1, 2017, you will pay: $75,000 (annual salary) - $61,000 (U-M covered base salary) = $14,000 / 12 x .00620 = $7.23 per month
If your salary is $120,000, your current cost is $29.75 per month. For 2017, your cost will be $30.48 per month.
See Paying for Expanded LTD Coverage on the University Human Resources for access to a calculator to help you determine your monthly cost. If you have been paying for coverage on your full salary over $60,000, but your salary is less than the new threshold of $61,000, you will still have coverage on your full salary. Beginning January 1, 2017, your employee contribution will decrease to $0 and you will not have to pay any LTD premiums unless your salary exceeds $61,000 in the future.

I am an anime lover. Well, not exactly that avid where I can tell who is who. I love Japanese cartoons especially the old ones like Candy-Candy, Voltes 5, and others which titles I have forgotten already. I grew up watching these old Japanese anime and up to know, I still remember most parts. As a tribute to my growing fondness on Japanese animation, I will be featuring anime trivia every Wednesday. So, if you have any anime characters in mind who you would like to be featured or would like to know more about them, do let me know so I can scour my treasure box of Japanese anime ;) A word of caution though, I will not be featuring animes that I deem not worth featuring. Anime lovers out there will know what I mean.

Jose Mourinho to hand key Manchester United star contract extension and bumper pay rise
JOSE MOURINHO will reportedly active a one-year extension in David De Gea's Manchester United contract this summer.
De Gea has two years left on his current Manchester United deal.
And The Sun claim Mourinho plans to activate a one-year extension option in De Gea's contract at the end of the season.
Jose Mourinho plans to activate a one-year extension for Manchester United star David De Gea
This will keep the Spanish international at Old Trafford until 2020, and see the goalkeeper's wages rise above £200,000.
A United insider told The Sun: "The club are looking to exercise their option to extend David's deal this summer.
"He will be given a pay increase. He has consistently been one of the best goalkeepers in the world for a number of years now.
David De Gea has been Manchester United's player of the year in each of the last three seasons
"There shouldn't be any problems, but clubs have been sniffing around him for a number of years now."
De Gea has been United's player of the season for the past three years.
The 26-year-old came close to joining Real Madrid in 2015, but a deal failed to be completed in time.

A new borrowing option has been presented to the Luzerne County Council to avoid mass layoffs and defaulting on an $8.5 million debt repayment.
The challenge: a majority of the county council must approve it, and someone who voted against the last borrowing must agree to put the new proposal on the table for a vote on Tuesday, according to the council's bylaws.
County Chief Solicitor C. David Pedri told the council the state is willing to sign an agreement pledging to directly pay a lender any state reimbursements owed to the county.
"After numerous revisions, the Commonwealth through this agreement has agreed to pay the FULL OBLIGATION permitted by law of any borrowing authorized by County Council," Pedri said in a communication emailed to the council.
The agreement would eliminate any chance of the state funding coming back to the county and being misdirected for other purposes.
After a council majority rejected the borrowing, state Sen. John Yudichak, D-Plymouth Township, reached out to the governor's office about the county's "dire situation," Pedri told the council. The intervention sparked negotiations between the state budget office and Pedri about the agreement.
Council Chairwoman Linda McClosky Houck sent Pedri's proposal to her council colleagues Friday evening.
"Council's voice has been heard in Harrisburg, and the Commonwealth's Office of the Budget came to the table with Council at the urging of Senator Yudichak," she wrote.
The proposed solution stemmed from many hours of negotiation between Pedri and the state, she wrote.
"In this proposal the Commonwealth is involved in the borrowing and agrees to pay the full obligation — including interest — of such borrowing when the budget impasse is resolved and funds are released," McClosky Houck said.
Councilman Harry Haas, who provided the sixth vote needed to defeat the last borrowing of up to $20 million last Tuesday, said Friday he would be willing to reconsider a loan if the county isn't stuck with fees or interest payments.
Haas said state officials should absorb any costs because they created the county's crisis by failing to pass a budget since July 1, delaying $22 million in state reimbursement owed through the end of November.
"I'm open to a solution, but we can't be on the hook for a single cent," Haas said.
The county Court of Common Pleas must approve the borrowing if it is passed by the council, Pedri said.
The administration said several prospective financial institutions have reached out to the county expressing interest in providing a loan.
County officials are trying to prevent mass layoffs, service cuts and defaulting on an $8.5 million debt repayment due Dec. 15 because the state owes the county $22 million in reimbursements that racked up since the July 1 state budget impasse.
A county council majority unexpectedly voted 6-5 Tuesday to reject the borrowing of $20 million to compensate for the loss of state funding.
All county operations are now at risk of shutting down because the administration has been keeping Children and Youth and other primarily state-funded human service agencies operating since July 1 using money needed for payroll, debt repayments and bills in other departments.
Defaulting on the loan repayment may allow lenders to demand immediate repayment of more than $100 million that had been loaned to the county, magnifying the county's financial troubles, officials said.
The administration has identified funds that can be temporarily borrowed from segregated accounts within county government to cover most, if not all, of the Dec. 11 payroll in addition to next week's pay. No money has been found to cover bills beyond that.
Managers have compiled layoff lists as a precaution.

BOSTON -- Tim Wakefield will turn 45 later this summer, and in a concession to his age, does not move as fast as he once did.
A number of injuries, including a back ailment which required a surgical procedure after the 2009 season, have slowed him some. It's part of the aging process. The pace has been taken down a notch. Even the wins don't come as quickly as they once did.
That's largely a result of a changing role, which has Wakefield mostly pitching out of the bullpen in long relief, and often only when the game has already gotten out of hand.
But every once in a while, the Red Sox call on him to make a start again, to fill in for an injured member of the rotation. They've done so three times this year already and twice now, he's pitched brilliantly.
The first time, he outpitched reigning Cy Young Award winner Felix Hernandez, but was left with a no-decision when the Sox offense stalled while he was on the mound.
Sunday night, both he and the Boston lineup were good enough to earn his first win of the season and first since Sept. 8, 2010, more than eight months ago.
The drought stretched across 14 appearances, the longest of his career. And like everything else at this stage, it was welcomed with more appreciation by Wakefield.
"On the personal side, every win is precious,'' he said. "But as long as the team wins . . . that's the most important thing.''
The victory was the 194th of his career, inching him closer to 200 career wins. His goal of becoming the all-time winningest pitcher in Red Sox history has likely been dashed -- he sits at 180, needing 13 more to top Roger Clemens and Cy Young and his contract is up at the end of this season with no guarantee the Red Sox will invite him to return for 2011.
But regardless of the end goal, each win can be savored now, because there is no guarantee that they are going to continue. He left to a standing ovation, and in recognition, tipped his cap.
Wakefield was extremely efficient Sunday, averaging fewer than nine pitches an inning through the first three frames. In the seventh, when he allowed a leadoff double by Starlin Castro, a long flyout to the warning track in right to Carlos Pena and a run-scoring double to Jeff Baker, it was clear that he was leaving pitches up in the zone.
Even then, after 6 23 innings, he had thrown just 75 pitches, largely saving the Boston bullpen.
"That's the thing that we all admire about him,'' said Dustin Pedroia. "We asked him to step in two or three times this year so far and every time he's come out and thrown the ball great. He's accepted the role and he's a first-class guy. That's why we all love him.''
"He was terrific,'' marveled Terry Francona. "The role's changed a little bit now, but what a lift that gives us. You throw a guy in there when somebody's hurt and he's so professional. I guess it shouldn't amaze us because he's been doing it for such a long time.''
Wakefield and Alfredo Aceves are temporary additions to the Red Sox rotation, filling in for the injured Daisuke Matsuzaka and John Lackey. In two starts this weekend, the two combined to limit the Cubs to just two runs over 11 23 innings.
If the Sox get those kind of outings until the others return, they'll be in fine shape. In the meantime, Tim Wakefield intends to take it all in. If this is to be his victory lap, it's nice to get some actual victories along the way.

Brands need social media strategy for Twitter
More than half of Twitter users stopped following brands because of 'repetitive or boring messages', according to a study conducted by ExactTarget and CoTweet. The Social Break-Up, a report on online behaviour, found that 52% of people stopped following a brand due to a lack of strategy when using the medium.
Additionally, 41% said their Twitter stream had become 'too crowded with marketing messages', 39% indicated that companies posted too frequently, and 21% said tweets were 'too promotional'.
"As brands can use Twitter to respond to customers in real-time, Twitter is frequently accepted as more interactive than Facebook or email. But no other social media channel has such a polarising effect than Twitter—you either love it or hate it," said Lee Hawksley, senior director at Exact Target Australia.
"This is why it's just that little bit harder to provide users with genuinely relevant content. However, it's important to remember that the users who are active on Twitter are the most active and involved online."
The Social Break-Up also found:
- 17% of online consumers have created a Twitter account, yet only 9% are currently active.
- 71% of people who follow brands on Twitter expect to receive marketing messages from companies through the medium.
- 48% of active Twitter users check Twitter several times a day and 64% check Twitter at least once a day.
The study further revealed that almost half of all Twitter profiles are inactive, with 47% of those who had created a profile no longer considered active users.
More than half (52%) of the Twitter quitters found the platform 'pointless', with 38% saying it 'got boring'. Almost a quarter quit when they found the social medium 'too chaotic'.
The Social Break-Up report can be downloaded at www.ExactTarget.com/sff.

The above facts seem to be correct. I have been maintaining a twitter account for a third party. I keep gaps between two tweets and have seen a gradual growth in followers. One day i decided to put more tweets only to find lesser people following that handle. I am back to the strategy.. Its helping a great deal.
I agree with you, businesses should make a topic that is value-added to the target customers' part. They have to monitor their tweets and try not to share most of their promotional offerings. Thanks for sharing these facts.

Things Trailer (2014)
19 September 2014 21 mins
Things is a lyrical analysis of the objects we gather around us, split into sections loosely based on the seasons. Rivers' films are, typically, intimate portrayals of solitary beings or isolated communities. In Things however, he turns his attention to the unexplored objects, thoughts and memories from inside his own home. The film is a collision of individual fragments of video and sound, which together complete an abstract, humorous and intimate picture. In the Summer section for example, we witness a squirrel attacking a coconut model of another squirrel. In its attention to small moments, the film is a rumination of the things we gather around us.

The College Foundation of West Virginia hosted College Goal Sunday at multiple locations.
Fairmont State University hosted its event at the Gaston Caperton Center in Clarksburg.
College Goal Sunday is designed to help future college students get prepared by helping them complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA.
Kaye Widney, the vice-president of student services at Fairmont State, said the form can be difficult to fill out if you haven't done it before.
"A lot of people find that document to be a little bit intimidating, when in fact it can be pretty straightforward especially if you have someone familiar with the document helping you through it. This is just an opportunity for those families to come and get help in a timely manner," explained Widney.
Students also attended the event at West Virginia University.
"Completing the FAFSA is a crucial step in finding financial aid for college," Brian Weingart, Senior Director of Financial Aid at the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission, said.
The College Foundation of West Virginia coordinated the event, and urges anyone who is planning to pursue some form of education beyond high school within the next year, to apply for the FAFSA.
"Students must submit this form in order to be considered for a variety of financial aid programs, including state and federal grants, scholarships and loans," said Weingart.
The event was held at 25 different locations across the state. The event was made possible through the volunteer efforts and resources of public and non-profit organizations and businesses across the state.

text: I have always hosted a large Thanksgiving with 35-50 people with family and folks who had no family down here, Everyone is used to just coming here and I was ok with it and bring who you want. The past few years, people have passed and it has gotten smaller. This year I have 6 confirmed guests and 6 that didn't confirm. In years past I would have cooked enough regardless and hoped that extra people showed. Since I have been unemployed for 1 1/2 years I wanted to make sure that I cooked an ample amount but not over the top in order to economize. I am planning at this point so, I called the undecided folks to see if they're coming. This consists of two singles and one group of four. Turns out I'm the backup plan and none of them will know until the last minute, way past when I'm done shopping. I don't know how to handle this. I mentioned that I have to know but couldn't get an answer. Should I give them a cutoff date to confirm? Or, should I get into the season and welcome all as I have done in the past.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
occupational for someone who made or sold blankets or coverlets. The surname Challeen may also be a local surname given to someone who came from this place.
Challeen Early Origins
Powys (Welsh: Powys), a Welsh Kingdom in post-Roman times, now a county of Wales created by joining the former counties of Montgomeryshire, Radnorshire, and Breconshire, where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
Challeen Spelling Variations
Challeen Spelling Variations
Although there are not an extremely large number Welsh surnames, there are an inordinately large number of spelling variations of those surnames. This variety of spellings began almost immediately after the acceptance of surnames within Welsh society. As time progressed, these old Brythonic names were eventually were recorded in English. This process was problematic in that many of the highly inflected sounds of the native language of Wales could not be properly captured in English. Some families, however, did decide to modify their own names to indicate a branch loyalty within the family, a religious adherence, or even a patriotic affiliation. The name Challeen has seen various spelling variations: Chaloner, Challener, Challenor, Challinor, Chalener, Chalenor, Challoner, Chalinor, Challon, Challin, Challen, Chalen, Chalin and many more.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many people from Wales joined the general migration to North America in search of land, work, and freedom. These immigrants greatly contributed to the rapid development of the new nations of Canada and the United States. They also added a rich and lasting cultural heritage to their newly adopted societies. Investigation of immigration and passenger lists has revealed a number of people bearing the name Challeen: Robert Challener who settled in Barbados in 1679 with his wife and servants; Thomas Challenor settled in Jamaica in 1684; Alexander Challinor settled in Virginia in 1698.

Should talking on a cell phone without a hands-free device while driving be illegal?
Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dangerous because it puts drivers in four times greater risk of getting in an accident. I believe that this should be illegal so that people can be safer.
Cell phone use contributes to 6 percent of crashes. which equates to 636,000 crashes, 330,000 injuries, 12,000 serious injuries and 2,600 deaths each year
No state bans all cell phone use for all drivers, but 38 states and D.C. ban all cell phone use by novice drivers, and 20 states and D.C. prohibit it for school bus drivers
Work Sited:
Talking on a hand-held cellphone slowed drivers' reactions to seeing a pedestrian enter a crosswalk by 40 percent compared with no conversation. The effect was identical for drivers who talked on a hands-free phone.
With this evidence saying how much of crashing is caused by talking on the cell phone without a hands-free device I conclude that it should be illegal so that the car crashes are decreased and safety is increased.

This release of The Tonight Show includes three discs with each one spotlighting a different comedian with their unique acts and follow-up chats with Johnny. These never-before-released nine shows span from the '70s through the '90s, and can be viewed with or without their accompanying vintage commercials which include Clairol, Spray & Wash, Pillsbury, Pepto Bismol, K-Mart, NBC shows and so on.
Disc 1 Steve Martin
The Tonight Show presents the Emmy-winning writer of The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour Steve Martin first appearing on July 21, 1976, with Jimmy Stewart, Karen Black and inventor spokesman Mel Fuller from the Inventor's Workshop. Steve Martin appears with ukelele in hand and starts his routine with a "happy" song and dance, while actors Jimmy Stewart and Karen Black plug their current movies.
Martin's second appearance is May 21, 1982, with Sylvester Stallone and Johnny is perplexed as to who gets first billing in the introduction since his guests are both huge stars. Sylvester Stallone enters first introducing his 6-year-old son Sage, and then chats with Johnny about his new film Rocky III with Mr. T, then Martin enters with a clip of his current movie, proving the hilarity and craziness of Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid.
On December 19, 1991, Steve's third appearance is with the hilarious comedian Cathy Ladman and singer Leon Redbone (Elf). Johnny's talk centers on Christmas in Hollywood and ushers in Martin's appearance. Steve talks about his new movie, Father of the Bride, and, in particular, the amazing audition of the 'bride' Kimberly Williams in the movie. Steve mentions that he was told backstage that this appearance may be the last time he's on the show with Johnny because his host will be retiring. Funny lady Cathy Ladman presents Johnny with a retirement gift and extraordinary musician Leon Redbone performs a closing Christmas song.
Disc 2 Robin Williams
On April 3, 1984, Robin Williams came in with a bang with his creative comedy and free-association riffs. He touched on subjects across the social spectrum, amazing his host with his unpredictable bits and characters leaving Johnny wondering of Williams: "how many people are in there?"
Watching the genius of Robin Williams makes me grieve for the loss of his unbelievable comedic talent. Disc 2 showcases his spontaneous wit and creative imagination as he was appearing to promote his new movie Moscow on the Hudson. He automatically goes into mimicking characters, and then onto his new movie where he plays a Russian saxophone player who defects while in Bloomingdale's. Williams is so funny and quick that if you blink, you'll miss a bit on one of his character sketches.
On January 10, 1991, Williams appears for the second time with the great popular singer Steve Lawrence who sings "I've Got You Under My Skin." Johnny credits Williams with one of the most original creative minds and promotes Robin's new film with Robert De Niro, Awakenings. Talking about Shakespeare, Williams starts characterizing actors playing "Hamlet" Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Nicholson, and goes into a bit of how an actor feels when he must pretend to be happy when someone else wins the Oscar.
On September 19, 1991, Johnny says 'two crazies' got together to entertain America. That's Williams' third appearance on the show with actor/comedian Jonathan Winters dressed as a Yankee Civil War General still waiting for his Veteran's check. Johnny hails Williams both as a superb actor and great comedian and mentions his new movie The Fisher King where he plays a romantic man with hallucinations who runs like a wild Don Quixote in Manhattan. Williams has just finished Hook, where he plays Peter Pan and talks about the uncomfortable flying harness. Both a good friend of Johnny and Williams, Jonathan muses about some 20 episodes he played on Mork & Mindy with Williams. Winters and Williams carry on their comedy for long stints while Johnny sits rolling with laughter.
Disc 3 Eddie Murphy
Eddie Murphy's first appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson was on January 1, 1982, appearing with actor McLean Stevenson. Murphy performs an outrageously creative monologue that illustrates his breakout rise to stardom with a clip from Saturday Night Live's rendition of The Tonight Show with Murphy imitating Bill Cosby in "Here's Cos."
Eddie Murphy's second appearance on Johnny's show is shared with Mash actor Wayne Rogers and actor/musician Albert Hague. Murphy's monologue starts with a surprisingly outrageous statement and gets the audience's attention with "Shut-Up!" and then goes into an unusual scream therapy. He does a "tasteless" impression of Stevie Wonder followed with his infectious laughter and he admits that when he was in school, he would make anonymous calls causing chaos and school evacuation.
On July 30, 1982, Eddie Murphy made his third appearance at The Tonight Show. Appearing with Murphy is singer Angela Bofill, and top heavyweight boxing contender Randall "Tex" Cobb. Saturday Night Live's Eddie Murphy promotes the film he is currently shooting, 48 Hrs., and discusses his comedy album simply called Eddie Murphy. In his act, Murphy asks the ladies to check out his nice butt, he shares his mother's opinion about his comedy, and also talks about his impressions of Mohammed Ali and Howard Cosell.
The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson: Johnny and Friends Featuring Steve Martin, Robin Williams & Eddie Murphy is a great historical comedic DVD for your Tonight Show Collection. These three comedians are unique geniuses who continue the expertise and evolution of American comedy. You will enjoy many hours reminiscing over these performances. This DVD is one of the greats. Of course, there may be flaws in the filming or audio, but the content is remarkable and memorable. Don't miss it!

Recycled news and (hopefully) original commentary from a New England Progressive

Exodus drops t/r/o/u/, uhh, suit
In an earlier article, I noted that the law firm of Liberty Counsel (partial to right-wing causes) had brought action on behalf of one of their clients, Exodus International (an organization that bills itself as an "ex-gay ministry"), and send a Cease & Desist order to blogger Justin Watt that parodied one of their billboards on his Justinsomnia site.
USA Today is carrying news that Exodus International is withdrawing their complaint, supposedly because he removed an "image watermark" from his parody.
The writer for the news outlet thinks it's more likely that Watt, who had enlisted the help of the ACLU, was able to stare down Exodus & Liberty because he knew what his rights were under copyright law's protection of parody under the "fair use" doctrine, and didn't meekly comply with the threat.

Our Next Adventure… Belize!
We teased it on our Instagram last Friday, and now we officially get to announce our next adventure. It's another international trip, and again we're traveling to Latin America for some active adventure.
Although there are many other destinations on our wish list, Belize is the perfect choice for us.
Why Belize? What is there to do? When are we going, you ask?
You've come to the right post.
Here are all the deets:
Why Belize?
We decided on Belize for several reasons. First, it's close to the U.S. Our flight from St.Louis is only about 5 hours total, with one stop. We don't have a lot of time to work with, and we didn't want to spend all of it on a plane.
Second, speaking of time, Belize is a small country. We feel we'll be able to see a lot of it in the six days we'll have there. Though I'm sure no one has a hard time filling months there, it's a manageable and not-too-rushed week.
Belize is also affordable. Yes, it's touristy, and yes, by Central America backpacking standards it's pricey, but for two of us, we plan to spend an average of $100/day, including lodging, food, car rental, and tours, while exploring all Belize has to offer.
Finally, Belize sounds awesome! Why would we not want to visit? There are plenty of active things to keep us busy, and some really relaxing things to keep us in vacation mode.
What will we do there?
When researching all there is to know about visiting Belize, I came across several areas I know we'll be visiting. I also like to leave time to stumble upon additional places to explore and things to do. Here is our tentative plan:
2 days in Caye Caulker
- Stay in a hostel ($35/night) that offers some activities and beach access
- Go on a full-day snorkeling tour to Hol Chan Marina Reserve & Shark Ray Alley
3 days in San Ignacio
- Stay in a wooden bungalow ($35/night)
- Explore Mayan ruins in the area
- Take a day trip to Tikal, Guatemala
- Go cave tubing and maybe take a tour to ATM Cave
- Hike to waterfalls
2 days in Placencia
- Cole will fly back home and I will visit this beach area solo for two days
- Stay at a hostel or small hotel?
- Yoga, paddle boarding, relaxing
I'd say we have plenty of things to do!
When will we go?
Um, can we go now? JK I still need a new swimsuit. We leave March 14th and I return March 21st. It's Cole's Spring Break and one of my school district's Spring Break as well. And for how much longer will we have these school break opportunities? Not much. Also, our $800 worth of United vouchers were about to expire. So it was really just common sense. 🙂
But more on flights later.
For now, I will keep looking at pictures, praying we will have good weather, and reading everything I can about our next big adventure.
Have you ever been to Belize? Do you prefer to fill your vacations with activities or lounging?

- Aged 18 years or older from the application date
- In permanent UK residence for a minimum of three years
- Fulfil at least one of the following employment criteria:
- In regular, permanent employment.
- Retired from regular employment - With a minimum age of 50.
- Not working through disability.
- Self-employed.
Note: All applicants will be subject to a credit reference check by the lender.
Credit is subject to application and status. Warehouse Express Ltd trading as Wex Photographic act as credit broker and not the lender. Barclays Partner Finance act as the lender.
Can I repay early? If so how?
No repayments are scheduled in the initial six-month deferral period. However, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, but a £29.00 early-settlement will be incurred. Such repayments may be made to Barclays Partner Finance by cheque, debit card or standing order. Unfortunately it is not possible to set up a direct debit within the deferral period. Further information on how to make such repayments will be set out in the loan agreement pack provided by Barclays Partner Finance.
What happens if I don't repay within the first six months (deferral period)?
Following the six month deferral period, Barclays Partner Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 19.9% APR on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Late payment penalties and early repayment charges will apply from this point. Barclays Partner Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six month deferral period is due to elapse. Note: If you chose to spread the cost and pay monthly, interest is charged from the start of the loan, not from the start of the repayment period.
What will I receive from the finance provider (lender)?
Barclays Partner Finance will send a loan agreement pack approximately four weeks after delivery of the goods, confirming that the account has been activated and, from this point, it is possible to make repayments against the loan.
