Faron Young
Faron Young
Originally known as "the Hillbilly Heartthrob" and "the Singing Sheriff," Faron Young had one of the longest-running and most popular careers in country music history. Emerging in the early '50s, Young was one of the most popular honky tonkers to appear in the wake of Hank Williams' death, partially because he was able to smooth out some of the grittiest elements of his music. At first, he balanced honky tonk with pop vocal phrasing and flourishes. This combination of grit and polish resulted in a streak of Top Ten hits -- including "If You Ain't Lovin'," "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young," "Sweet Dreams," "Alone With You," and "Country Girl" -- that ran throughout the '50s. During the '60s, Young gave himself over to country-pop, and while the hits weren't quite as big, they didn't stop coming until the early '80s. Through that time, he was a staple at the Grand Ole Opry and various television shows, including Nashville Now, and he also founded the major country music magazine, Music City News. Most importantly, he continued to seek out new songwriters -- including Don Gibson, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson -- thereby cultivating a new generation of talent.

Not too good for wide feet.
I am usually a size 5 in all other shoes, so I bought a 5.5. But if I get a new pair down the track, I will get a size 6.
I have quite wide feet, and even though I've worn these for a year at least, after about an hour wearing and walking,I still get blisters and stinging on my little toes.
Sizing: Smaller than Expected

Great for the small-wristed
I've had this bracelet for a couple of months now.
I don't wear it daily... maybe once a week.
So far the quality has been good - no problems with the colour fading/tarnishing, nor turnlock problems (touch wood!)
I have small wrists (6'') and it's always so hard to find braclets that don't slip off.
This one doesn't slip off. It hangs a bit lower than I'd like though - but it's the best I am going to get for my wrists.
Overall a very good purchase.

ABSTRACT: Chondrodysplasia punctata (CDP) is etiologically a heterogeneous condition and has been associated with single gene disorders, chromosome abnormalities and teratogenic exposures. The first publication of the association between CDP and maternal autoimmune connective tissue disorder was by Curry et al. 1993]. Chondrodysplasia punctata associated with maternal collagen vascular disease. A new etiology? Presented at the David W. Smith Workshop on Morphogenesis and Malformations, Mont Tremblant, Quebec, August 1993] and subsequently, other cases have been reported. We report on eight cases of maternal collagen vascular disease associated with fetal CDP and included the cases reported by Curry et al. 1993. Chondrodysplasia punctata associated with maternal collagen vascular disease. A new etiology? Presented at the David W. Smith Workshop on Morphogenesis and Malformations, Mont Tremblant, Quebec, August 1993] and Costa et al. [1993]. Maternal systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE) and chondrodysplasia punctata in two infants. Coincidence or association? 1st Meeting of Bone Dysplasia Society, Chicago, June 1993] which were reported in an abstract form. We suggest that maternal autoimmune diseases should be part of the differential diagnosis and investigation in newborns/fetuses with CDP. Thus, in addition to cardiac evaluation, fetuses/newborn to mothers with autoimmune diseases should have fetal ultrasound/newborn examination and if indicated, X-rays, looking for absent/hypoplastic nasal bone, brachydactyly, shortened long bones and epiphyseal stippling.American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A 12/2008; 146A(23):3038-53. · 2.30 Impact Factor - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The diastrophic dysplasia family of osteochondrodysplasias comprises a spectrum of skeletal diseases characterized by abnormal growth and remodelling of cartilage and bone. They are caused by mutations in the diastrophic dysplasia sulfate transporter (DTDST) gene. Different defects in this gene product give rise to the variety of phenotypes based on the level of residual transport capacity. We reported a case of a fetus with this spectrum, evaluated and diagnosed with fetal MRI.Pediatric Radiology 09/2008; 38(12):1345-9. · 1.57 Impact Factor

It's Iowa's turn this year for the annual Farm Progress Show. RFD Radio Network's Rita Frazer already chose a prime location in the media tent and will send reports back to Illinois.
FarmWeekNow's Dan Grant and Martin Ross will also be on hand covering this year's event, held in the town of Boone in north-central Iowa.
Farm Progress officials report this year's drought won't have a big impact on crops set aside for the popular field demonstrations. Weather permitting, combine demonstrations will take place at 11:00 a.m. each morning, with tillage tools running at 2:00 p.m. in the afternoons.
The show begins today and runs through Thurs., August 30. Mark your calendars: next year's Farm Progress Show returns to the semi-permanent site near Decatur, Ill. and will run August 27-29, 2013.

I'm curious about the opinions of my fellow authors and site members as to the culture of this wonderful place we inhabit.
My first question is in regard to critique. In my opinion, it is implied that work posted here is considered to be complete unless otherwise noted. By this I mean that unless someone specifically asks for suggestions as to how to improve a piece, the work is meant to stand alone on its merits. If the reader likes the writing, he or she will leave a congratulatory comment or engage in dialogue about the subject matter. And if the craft or content didn't leave an impression big enough to engage in banter or inspire oohs and ahhs for the craft, the reader will politely move along to check out the work of other writers who might engage them.
My other question is in regard to an author's response to comments. I hope someone will take a moment to explain to me why one would choose not to respond to people who have taken the time to read your work and then choose to discuss it with you. When authors leave comments hanging, it makes me feel like they are putting on airs. I simply don't understand why you would join an interactive community and then choose to keep the communication one-sided.
I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions on the subject-- you'll save me the cost of purchasing Cyber Cultures for Dummies.
Shana, in answer to your second question...
I tend to give Authors (and members!) the benefit of the doubt that sometimes they either don't see the comments directed to them so they might not know that someone has made a comment about their work. I try to give someone a heads up when I can in that case.
Sometimes I feel like the Internet is like real life; sometimes you can get a wonderful conversation going, however at times there are missed opportunities!
Jennifer Gibbons, Red Room
Let me clarify
I'm not actually talking about the missed opportunities, Jennifer, where a comment may come in late and a writer loses track of it due to more recent posts. I am talking about the writers who chose to respond to no one. I'm wondering if one of them might explain why.
Shana McLean Moore
I find that men
tend to leave comments hanging. Not just in RR, but elsewhere on the Internet. Even emails go unanswered. So my question is what's wrong with the male of the species?
what's the matter with men today
I'm married to one and gave birth to two, and still the answer to this question eludes me. Please inform me should you come upon an answer. I'd certainly appreciate it! :-)
I would only consider making
I would only consider making creative criticism (or criticizing the creative endeavour) if specifically asked in the post.
However, blogs generally disappear within an hour in the course of a day, and one must chase them down. Perhaps a comment page for creative work is possible.
Shana, I agree with you on
Shana, I agree with you on issue of a piece of writing as ''standing alone on its merit as a complete work''. As for people who don't respond to a comment, well, it is obviously not a priority for them. Personally, it is a thrill for me to read a comment left on my post and then to connect with the person who took the time to leave it there!
Shana, I think it's nice to thank someone for leaving a comment: I try to do it on my blog and other content, and while it's nice to see that I've pleased someone with my comment enough for them to thank me, I don't ever feel slighted if they don't bother. If I haven't asked a question or done something that is supposed to get a conversation going, then there's nothing substantive for them to say.
As Mary said, it's not a priority for them, but I don't see it as particularly bad manners.
Huntington Sharp, Red Room
I love hearing from people about the things I write. I return all comments written for me. I know I am not a good writer, I hope that if there is a question in the reader they ask it. It will help better myself, I'm sure other writers would love to hear questions, comments. Life moves to fast, I enjoy a cup of coffee and reading blogs. I try to read twenty a day.
I'm with you on both,
I'm with you on both, Shana.
To me, blogging is an inherently informal mode of communication, though we are treated to some high quality writing here because it's a site for writers. But it would take all the fun out of it if I thought every blog post and comment had to be worthy of formal publication.
As for the comments, I'm a gabby Irish sort, so I have no clue as to why someone would systematically ignore them. This is an interactive medium; to me that is the point of having a presence here. Like Mary, I enjoy reading the comments to my blog posts.
But I suspect some people view a Web presence as a way of promoting themselves and their work, not realizing that, if that is their aim, the full value isn't achieved unless their presence is actively worked.
That said, I can understand periodic silences. Life happens. There are demands that take us away from the things we'd like to be doing. For people who travel a lot for their work, it isn't always easy to find the time and the means to go online for this sort of thing.
Thanks for
sharing your thoughts, everyone.
As you can obviously tell from my initial posting, I find it quite presumptuous of one writer to tell another how to improve their post when no request for a critique has been made. And I still can't understand how people could think it is okay to ignore a kind gesture if they really want to participate in a community of any kind. It's no surprise that all of you who have responded to my questions are also many of the people who sustain the welcoming vibe of the Red Room.
Shana McLean Moore
I try to go back, but
I try to go back, but sometimes, I really can't. Mostly, I do but time is often of the essence. I hope all know that I'm not forgetting them, I just can't find my mind as it's rolling around somewhere in the house collecting lint.
Jessica Barksdale Inclan
Not you
You are the opposite of the person I am describing, Jessica. I am sure we all miss a comment or two. I am talking about the people who categorically don't respond. Ever. They are the ones I don't understand.
Shana McLean Moore
Comment on comments
I try and consider every blog post of mine as publication ready, i.e., I'm hopeful it could right onto a paying website or magazine without hours of editing. I think we owe the readers that. The stuff on RedRoom is universally that courteous. I've never seen a post that wasn't thought out, spell checked, and ready to go. It's one of the things that elevates Redroom from so much other dreck.
I think I'm like most writers in that I'd like to take anyone who bothers to read my posts and takes time to comment out to a nice dinner. Writing can be so lonely and takes place is such a solitary echo chamber.
I don't understand writers who don't acknowledge, but I don't hold it against them. They may be much busier than I, and I believe the ethos of the blog is to post, run away, write something else, post again. It's very seat of the pants so if someone doesn't respond, that's up to them.
Good dicussion here, Shana and others!
Shana, sorry to have missed
Shana, sorry to have missed this post yesterday. Had intermittent server problems.
I take on board everything that's been said above and personally always aim to respond to comments. But I don't necessarily expect comments upon my posted work. It's great if someone feels moved to leave them - I do trust Redroomers to be constructive! - but the dashboard speaks for itself.
Thanks for sharing your ever upbeat community spirit.
I do agree with you Shana,
having a comment on your blog is like a surprised gift from your oldest friend.One must spare time for reply. I am highly paid up in this matter. I have red room friends like Ellen,Heather,Mary, Pat, Jody, Luciana,Tania,Susan, Jayne and more only because of replying blogs and comments on comment.I would say that in real life I don't have such intellectual friends with wisdom.Not responding to the comment on your work is certainly a walking on air. It is like dancing alone in the dark room.
Y'all are super!
Thanks to you, Chris, Rosy and Jitu for chiming in with your perspectives on Red Room culture.
It's so much easier to like people who think I do. LOL... kinda.

The pyrotechnics, put on by the Taunton Rugby Football Club, finished about 10 minutes before the crash Friday evening and was less than a quarter of a mile from the M5 motorway in Somerset, The Daily Telegraph reported. The pileup killed seven people as trucks and cars slammed into each other, many of them bursting into flames.
"Our main line of inquiry has now moved toward the event that was on the side of the carriageway," Anthony Bangham, the assistant chief constable for Somerset and Avon, said.
Witnesses described a wall of fog on the motorway and some said they saw smoke. Mike Penning, the transport minister, said the witnesses could have been reporting smoke produced by the crash itself.
"Once these lorries caught fire, diesel produces a very black acrid smoke, the tires were alight, the plastics were alight," he said. "That mixing with mist or fog would create something that people might have thought was there before but was not there before but was part of the accident."
Tom Smith, an official with the British Pyrotechnists Association, told The Guardian wind would have blown any smoke produced by the fireworks away.
The dead include two truck drivers, and a wheelchair-bound man and his daughter who were driving home from a funeral. Another daughter was in an induced coma Monday, not realizing she had lost her father and sister, the Telegraph said.

Braves Fans Should Calm Down
I wanted to write this article after Atlanta Braves fans had a chance to take a deep breath and calm down. The fan in us is always quick to criticize and get upset, but most of the time when we take a step back, we can see things a little more clearly. That's what I am trying to do with this Braves team, because believe it or not, this team had a really good year. I will start...

Same Old Sad Braves Song
Atlanta Braves fans, who have followed the team since the early 90s, have been disappointed often over the years.

The Braves postseason pitching always seems to range from good to outstanding, while the hitting ranges from below average to horror show. While the pitching...

Dodgers Send Braves Home
Uribe's 8th inning home run put an end to the Atlanta Braves 2013 season. The Dodgers won 4-3 and won the NLDS 3-1. The Dodgers relied on the bat of Carl Crawford to get their first 2 runs during game 4. His home runs in the 1st and 3rd innings put the Dodgers up 2-0. The Braves finally managed to tie things up against Kershaw in the 4th inning. It started when Chris Johnson...

Giving up the best record in the NL is not the way that Atlanta Braves fans wanted the season to end, but it happened, and I think that means big trouble for the Bravos. I certainly won't say that the Braves have no chance against the Dodgers, because that's simply not true, but I do think that this is the toughest match...

Could Braves Post Season Resemble Falcons Exhibition?
Looking at tickets available for the Atlanta Braves first round playoff games, it is astounding how many are still available. I would say that there are 15,000 tickets per game still awaiting purchase. Unless there is a significant amount of tickets purchased between now and when they call "play ball", the Braves NLDS games could resemble Falcon exhibition games. To say that...

Simmons Hit Walks Off Brewers
Andrelton Simmons' walk off single lifted the Atlanta Braves over the Milwaukee Brewers, 3-2 on Tuesday night. Jonathan Lucroy, the Brewers catcher, continued his good series on Tuesday. Lucroy singled home Norichika Aoki in the 3rd inning to put the Brewers on top. Evan Gattis tied the game up in the 4th inning. Gattis doubled to deep center field in the 4th. Freddie Freeman...

Braves Continue Lackluster Play
Evidently home field advantage in the playoffs doesn't mean anything, 'cause the Atlanta Braves keep rolling out line-ups littered with substitutes. Monday night, in the 5-0 loss to the Brewers, the Braves had Brian McCann and Freddie Freeman sitting on the bench resting. In a few weeks the season will be over, can't they rest then? If the best record in the NL is meaningless...

Braves Go Belly Up Against Brewers
A trio of home runs helped the Milwaukee Brewers defeat the Atlanta Braves in game 1 of the series. Brewers home runs, and a lack of Braves hitting, led to a 5-0 Brewers win on Monday night. Carlos Gomez got the home runs and scoring started for the Brewers in the 1st inning, when he hit a solo homer off of Braves pitcher, Mike Minor. Jonathan Lecroy homered off Minor in the 5th...

The Braves got a commanding lead early on Friday, but were not able to hold on to it. In the 2nd inning, Chris Johnson homered to left field, to get the game's scoring started. They added 3 more runs off...

The Atlanta Braves were known throughout their 14-year division championship run as going about their business on the field with a tight-lipped, button-down, corporate approach. Rarely did Braves players show emotion, particularly by leaders of the team.

Knala is a beautiful deep chocolate color, and she also carries black and yellow. Knala has produced charcoal, silver, and even champagne pups. A bit smaller than Grace, Knala weighs around 50 pounds. She is very sweet and loving, and also very quiet, which makes her a favorite with my kids.
Knala will be looking for a forever home after her next litter, either at the end of this year or the beginning of 2014. After raising several litters of puppies, Knala deserves to be loved and spoiled as a pet! If you are interested in adopting Knala, please contact Silvermist.
**Knala has found a home with Brad and Kelly in Illinois!**
for Knala's pedigree.
Muddy River's Silver
Shadow is the newest addition to the Silvermist family. Shadow is a light silver, and she also carries chocolate, charcoal, and black. She's already a family favorite who loves to run and play with the kids. She loves to have her tummy scratched, and she wants to shake hands with everyone she meets. Even taller than Grace, Shadow weighs close to 80 pounds. Shadow is also a bit of a goof! She always has a "smile" on her face.
for Shadow's pedigree.
Remington's Black Diamond of Silvermist
Meet Remi! The newest addition to Silvermist is a precious bundle of black fur (and energy). Formerly known as Coal, Remi is the first of our dogs to be born and raised right here at Silvermist. She is from Grace's last litter, and she looks more like her daddy, Angus, every day. We are pleased to combine her lineage with that of our new male, Duke. Remi is energetic and playful and always ready to snuggle.
for Remi's pedigree.
Retired Females
Princess Grace of Silvermist
Princess Grace was our very first silver Lab and the foundation for Silvermist Labs. Grace is now retired and living the good life with Steve and Judy and her new buddy Zeke the Golden Retriever right here in Willow Springs. Grace will begin advanced obedience and agility training with Judy in order to compete in dog shows. We can't wait to see her progress and will keep everyone updated as Grace begins this new and exciting chapter in her life.

 They may not get much governing done, but that wacky crew in Washington sure can put words together in new and different ways.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid referred to the House's "banana Republican mindset."
President Obama pretended that wishing would make it so when he said: "One faction in one house of Congress in one branch of government doesn't get to shut down the entire government just to re-fight the results of an election." Wanna bet?
Sen. Charles Schumer brought to mind a remake of King Kong in the halls of Congress, with the American people being turned over to appease the mean monkey: "Does Speaker Boehner need to engage in something like the ancient practice of sacrifice, this time to right-wing gods?"
There was the specter of winged-monkeys, too, as Dorothy waited wide-eyed in the wicked witch's castle: "At this point, the hourglass is nearly empty," said Republican Rep. Charlie Dent.
Auntie Em, Auntie Em.
Of course, if appeasement's the topic, you can't top the comments by chatty GOP Sen. Ted Cruz about Nazis, and how those who say opposing Obamacare is pointless are the Neville Chamberlains of our time.
But what's this really all about?
 "Spoiled children."
That's how 69 percent of Americans described the behavior of GOP elected officials in this Shutdown Showdown, according to a new CNN/ORC poll.
Yes, Newt Gingrich, the people will blame the GOP. And according to the poll, 68 percent said even a short shutdown was a bad idea.
But Newt urges the GOP to stand firm: "House Republicans must not abdicate their responsibilities now."

Settlement checks to borrowers who lost homes
Published On: Jun 07 2013 07:18:53 AM MDT
Montanans who lost their homes to foreclosure between 2008 and 2011 and filed a valid claim through the National Mortgage Settlement will receive a check this month for nearly $1,500.
Attorney General Tim Fox announced the payments Thursday for claims involving Ally (formerly GMAC), Bank of America Corp., Citi, JPMorgan Chase & Co., and Wells Fargo & Co.
Checks totaling $2.5 million are being mailed to over 1,700 Montana residents.
The payments come from a $1.5 billion national settlement over mortgage servicing abuse.

By Clemens Bomsdorf
Last summer, when the brass calling the shots on the location for the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest chose the rather modest confines of Malmö over Stockholm, a sizeable clutch of Swedes were left scratching their heads. The more than 2 million people living in greater Stockholm dwarf the 670,000 living in and around Malmö.
Organizers cited Malmö 's solid infrastructure (it's a bridge away from Copenhagen) and the city's good track record with hosting Sweden's Melodifestivalen event, which is a six-round tournament in the winter designed to pick the nation's Eurovision contestant. Also, venues in Stockholm were either booked due to ice hockey world championships or deemed unsuitable for Eurovision's needs.
No matter the reason, most observers agree Malmö, Sweden's third largest city, could use a shot in the arm right about now. The city's unemployment rate is 14.5%, well above the wider nation's 8.8%.
This year we'll be travelling to Malmö, Sweden, for the annual extravaganza of glitter, key changes and geopolitical tension that is the Eurovision Song Contest. As the contest has expanded over the years, it's become impossible to host all the countries in a single Saturday-night extravaganza. That's why there are four semifinals in the week before to decide who makes it through to the big night.
Before that, however, a bit of background: There are basically two semifinals, performed twice. Firstly, for the juries, and secondly for the public, with the two sets of votes equally weighted. Ten from each semifinal go through, to join the "big five" and host nation, who qualify automatically for the Saturday final.
European Union finance ministers arriving at Tuesday's EcoFin meeting said little to startle the journalists waiting to buttonhole them outside the Justus Lipsius building.
With one exception: Sweden's Anders Borg said EU countries should spend more money to help the bloc's economy. Yes, the same Anders Borg who has for years relentlessly urged policy makers from Athens to Rome to cut spending to help their economies.
Mr. Borg was arguing the European economy needed more "energy" and that could come from lower taxes and higher spending on things like education. Reporters were taken aback.
Could there be another earring-wearing, pony-tailed finance minister who just stepped out of a Volvo among the EU's 27? No, definitely Mr. Borg speaking.

My family stayed in this hotel for 3 nights while visiting my daughter at school nearby. We chose it based on positive Trip Advisor reviews and were sorely disappointed. It may be OK for a budget hotel but certainly not for close to $100 a night. I will never stay here again!

This car is very cool and very fun to drive. When you're driving you can see people looking at the car and that's a great feeling. I would recommend this car to anyone I know. Very manuverable when someone cuts you off. The very best thing is that you can't feel the difference between 40mph and 120mph because it's so comfortable.

This is a nice stick with a true cocoa scent. It's quite easy to over-apply as it leaves quite a thick film on lips. It is quite moisturizing and I like the way it nourishes my lips in wintertime. However, it isn't that much better than your average lip balm so I wouldn't buy again since it is much much more expensive than many equally good balms.
I have tried sooooo many lip treatments and they always leave my lips more dry then when I didn't use them. Up until using TBS's Cocoa Butter Stick, I could only use vasaline. When vasaline stopped making a portable tube version, I was stuck with transferring vasaline into a little container. I hated to use my fingers on my lips because I always had to wash my hands before I applied the vasaline. Finally, I have found TBS's Cocoa Butter stick and I really like it. It's moisturizing effect stays for a long time and it has just the right amount of slip and shine. I will definitely repurhase this when I run out.

Love this as i do loads of TBS lipsticks.This has a gentle cocoa taste is a light texture on the lips with a little bit of shine .This also has really good ingridients like chamomile,cocoa butter and antioxidants as well
Okay, so you have got to like the smell of chocolate if you are going to buy this. The smell/taste is strong (and fairly artificial). This was not a bad product. The product does stay on your lips longer than standard chapstick. But the effect does not last. Once it has worn off, your lips are just the same old same ole. Not a "healing" product.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This stuff smells sooooo yummy and feels really nice. The cocoa butter keeps my lips soft and moisturized for a long time. I love balms that are in chapstick form, so this was a plus!
My boyfriend usually grimaces and bellyaches about how "awful" my lip balms/glosses taste, so on a whim today I bought this balm. I figured it smells yummy and doesn't seem to contain as much things I can't pronounce as my other lip stuff, and it's relatively cheap compared to the ~$20 I plunk down for that stuff so why not?
So glad I did. It smells delicious and doesn't taste obnoxious, plus it makes my lips look like they're naturally perfect. I would've liked it more if it wasn't in such a Chapstick-y tube, but it's more hygienic and it's small enough to just tuck it in your pocket when you're in a hurry.

I just go this because of the great reviews here. I needed a nice lip balm and even though this was a bit pricey (actually, very pricey) for lip balm that was the size of a regular chap stick tube, it's totally worth it. It smells so good, like a hot/or cold cocoa drink. It glides on and leaves just the slightest bit of shine. I'll probably purchase this again when I run out of it.
This glides on like a dream, seriously not waxy at all! It's super emollient and moisturizes better than anything I've ever used; leaves my lips petal soft. HG! While I do like the smell, I really wish they'd make one without fragrance (gets tiring after a while) and with SPF. It comes in a regular chapstick tube which is great, more hygienic & less messy than in a pot.

This is a fab balm. Not at all expensive but probably one of the best i have tried - high and low end. It smells lovely and is so moisturising. Cocoa butter works very well for me and i can't fault it one bit!
love love love this product. smells great, tastes great, and works great. this product smells like cocoa butter with a chocolate twist. it has a slight sweet as well. I like this because it moisturizes but doesn't leave a greasy finish on my lips like most lip balms do. You can hardly tell I have it on at all. I
love wearing it under lipstick that can be drying. a little pricey ($5), but you can usually find them on sale for 3 for $10.

Irish government endorses investigation into RMS Lusitania torpedoed by German U-boat off Cork
US Businessman endorsed by Minister Deenihan to continue his exploration off coast of Kinsale
Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht Jimmy Deenihan has come to an agreement with US businessman Gregg Bemis to allow an investigation at the site of the RMS Lusitania wreckage 13 miles off the coast of Cork.
The Irish Times reports that Minister Deenihan has endorsed plans to begin a broad set of exploration objectives with US businessman Gregg Bemis, who owns the rights to the wreck.
"A general agreement on the objectives of further research planned by Mr Bemis was endorsed by both parties," a statement from Deenihan's department said.
The RMS Lusitania was torpedoed by a German U-Boat a few miles out from the Old Head of Kinsale, Cork in 1915. The ship sank in 18 minutes, and claimed 1,198 lives.
The sinking of the Lusitania was the inciting factor to bring the US into WWI, despite Germany's claim that the ship was a legitimate military target.
Bemis now believes that the proof of whether or not the Lusitania was a military threat may lie within the remaining wreckage of the ship.
Up until last year, Bemis had been engaging in a long-running battle with the Irish State to grant permission to further explore the ship's wreckage. Bemis had won a license in 2007, but it expired in late 2011. During that exploration period, Bemis researched the possibility of a second explosion on the ship which could have accounted for the quick sinking.
Additionally, Bemis was licensed to recover specific artifacts that might add to both his and the State's understanding of the wreck, as well as the life and times of those on board the vessel when it sank.
The State held that more exploration could be harmful to its heritage rights to wrecks in its waters.
However, a statement from Deenihan's department said on April 30, "Both the Minister and Mr Bemis agreed that there is also a need for a greater understanding of the present condition of the wreck and to assess its rate of deterioration over time so that future research can target areas that may be at risk of becoming totally inaccessible or which might reveal information on the key questions surrounding the last moments of the vessel before it sank."
In the license that Minister Deenihan is currently reviewing, Bemis plans to continue forensic investigations into the quick sinking of the ship, as well as continue to gather more artifacts that may be suitable for display in time for the centenary of the sinking. The license would be active for three years.

The underlying principle behind found-footage films is believability: the idea that the audience is viewing real events, shot by the principal characters, then gathered and edited by a mysterious third party. It's a fairly straightforward premise—and yet so easily and so often botched.Josh Trank's potentially excellent Chronicle is the most recent example. "Potentially," in that Trank took an otherwise engaging, character-based, super-powers movie and crippled it by clinging to the found-footage motif. Though it initially makes sense that the three principle characters would want to document their budding telekinetic abilities, by the end of the movie it's no longer clear why they would still be filming themselves. When a character is blatantly introduced for the sole purpose of providing a second camera angle, the illusion of reality is completely shattered.
Of course these kids think themselves to be the center of the universe and act accordingly.It doesn't have to be that way. [●REC], a 2007 Spanish horror film, succeeded in part because it paid careful attention to what drives the hand behind the lens. Filmed on a single camera, the movie follows a local late-night TV crew as they ride along with a squad of firefighters and emergency responders. When a routine call from an apartment building leads the characters into a zombie-infested deathtrap, they find themselves sealed inside the building by the government for fear of contamination. From there, they go from filming their news segment to documenting their illegal quarantine. The final sequence, in which the lights have been cut and the characters must rely on camera's night vision to navigate a darkened apartment, is one of the most masterfully crafted horror scenes of the decade.
The new found-footage party epic, Project X (produced by Todd Phillips of The Hangover fame), if nothing else, gets this one thing right: A group of American teenagers partaking in an orgy of self-obsessed, chemically fueled destruction would turn the camera on themselves. Thomas, Costa, and JB are three prototypical high-school nerds who, on the cusp of graduating without having made their mark on the social scene, decide to throw an all-out rager that ends up escalating beyond anything they'd imagined. Hilarity ensues, along with endless montages of drugs, violence, and sexual misconduct.
But on a meta level, it all feels very real. Believable, even. Of course these kids think themselves to be the center of the universe and act accordingly. Of course they're going to have a friend film their house party, set it to dubstep music, and put it on YouTube. Costa acts like the foul offspring of Jonah Hill and Girl Gone Wild progenitor Joe Francis because he grew up watching Hill and Francis on TV. Save for a crazed drug dealer wielding a flame thrower, Project X almost resembles reality, which is more than most found-footage films can say. If only it told a good story instead of merely providing a list of reasons you should be glad you're getting older.

Bill Russell is an NBA legend, and as such, gets invited to many important events.
On Monday, Russell was attending President Barack Obama's second inauguration, and did so in style. The 11-time NBA champion wore a Celtics hat to the ceremony, as if that would be enough to identify him.
Still, ABC News' George Stephanopoulos mixed up Russell with another celebrity, mistakenly identifying the former center as actor Morgan Freeman when spotted by television cameras. The anchor quickly corrected himself but the damage was done.
"There's Morgan Freeman--I'm sorry, uh, sorry, Bill Russell!"--George Stephanopoulos, who will never live that down, on ABC just now.

PHOTOS: Florida's rejected license plates aren't always offensive
St. Petersburg, FL -- There's new information in Sunday night's shooting that left a St. Petersburg woman dead, and a police officer on paid leave.
It may come down to something we've heard a lot about lately: mental health and guns.
It all started as a welfare check. A neighbor asked police to look-in on 53-year-old Pamela Kirk. Sadly, it instead led to a deadly confrontation between Kirk and the officers who responded.
Relatives say they'll wait to hear from detectives, but they want answers.
So far, police know this:
Officers went to Kirk's home on 13th Avenue North just after 8 p.m., after neighbor Donna Colber expressed concern about Kirk's well-being.
But detectives say Officer Chris Dolch, who went around to the back door, fired when Kirk suddenly pulled back a window curtain and, "pointed a silver Smith & Wesson .38 Special at the officer. He unholstered his weapon and fired three times," said department spokesman Bill Proffitt.
Police say Kirk has a history of mental issues.
In four instances since 2010 they'd taken her into custody under the Baker Act for exhibiting behavior dangerous to herself or others. In another incident in February 2011, they also took possession of three guns belonging to Kirk.
"I don't know why they gave it back, but she demanded it back and they gave it to her," said neighbor Robert Prince.
With no crime committed, police say Kirk was entitled to her firearms.
Prince says Kirk asked him to help her retrieve them, which he did... and now regrets.
"She wasn't allowed to drive so I drove her down to the police station to get her gun," said Prince. "I could have told her my car broke down or something, but I can't tell lies either."
Investigators say the officers who responded to the house were aware of previous responses to Kirk's home, and that one of them had even been present on one of those previous calls.
Officer Dolch, who has been on the force since December 2006, has been placed on paid leave pending the outcome of both the department and Pinellas State Attorney's office investigation.
"A lot of times those calls have a happy ending," said Proffitt, "It's just when there's a gun involved -- and a gun is pointed at a police officer -- then everything changes."
