Caption contest: Tickle our funny bone!
Our entire staff was challenged with decorating Holiday World for Happy Halloween Weekends.
And lots of crews from all sorts of departments stepped up and created some cute, clever, hilarious and even creepy displays.
This one made me laugh enough that I took a picture (truth be told, I was sort of out of breath from hoofing all over the grounds, so the 10 seconds of rest was nice).
So now it's time for you to make me laugh, or to keep with the theme - tickle my funny bone!

Jettison Greymatter
Don't let the cover art fool you into thinking Recluse is just another boring emo with death vocals EP. The format is well known and terribly overused, but New Jersey's Jettison Greymatter manages to keep things somewhat stimulating to the ear with their forward-thinking aggressive metalcore, and while I'm sure the band could very easily fall into overly technical wankery if they felt like it, instead they choose a more direct, grinding approach. Momentous death metal is most prevalent during the faster roaring blast sections of tunes such as "Photosynthetic Starlight", and "Malcontent", and chugging segues feature choppy staccato in ways that alternate between being groovy and easy to follow, to delving into more slightly challenging Byzantine-styled thrash parts.
"Fallen", however, is a track that's assembled as one long varying breakdown, slowly lumbering with bent notes wailing, until the inevitable ripping finish arrives almost like clockwork. There are plentiful breakdowns, but with "Malcontent" they feel rather unnecessary and don't really do much to add texture to an already humdrum song, which is disappointing considering the promising progressive intro to the track.
"Pol Pot" begins with a sludgy drawl resembling early Crowbar before delving into a mid-paced lurch, heavy with triplet riffs accented by regulation double-bass accompaniment with vocalist TJ Tolomeo hitting a stride so guttural I'm surprised the dude didn't give himself a hernia. While I usually chuckle at grunted vox, it makes for a nice departure from TJ's parched Mark Hunter (Chimaira) howling. "Kiss The Wind" closes this rather lengthy six-song affair with some boisterous rhythm fills fleshing-out the spaces, but only succeeds in ending this solid effort with a shrug of indifference compared to the earlier firepower of the first couple tracks.
With a better production job and little more attention to tightening up details with their songcraft, I'd say a future Prosthetic or Relapse signing is in the making. Otherwise, Jettison Greymatter could easily become another piece of kindling for the multicolor tattooed, earlobe-plugged bonfire, but at least the potential for greater things exists. I'd like to hear them get rid of some of the more generic breakdown filler and expand on the potential some of the guitar leads displayed, but overall Recluse definitely wasn't a chore to listen to. It's a free download at Gomek Records' website--what have you got to lose?

A cardinal from the Philippines, another from Austria and an archbishop from Ireland would be the "least worst" choices to be the next pope, according to a group representing the victims of abuse by priests.
The Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, released its list Thursday as cardinals held meetings at the Vatican in a prelude to the selection of the next pontiff.
The three are Cardinal Luis Tagle of the Philippines; Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn of Austria; and Archbishop Diarmuid Martin of Dublin, Ireland.
Martin is not a cardinal, but SNAP noted that a man need not be a cardinal to be elected pope. Historically, the role has gone to cardinals, however.
CNN Vatican analyst John Allen, also a correspondent for National Catholic Reporter, wrote last month that Schoenborn "certainly has the right pedigree for the job."
And Tagle has "been a leader in pushing the church in Asia to take an aggressive stance on clerical abuse," Allen said in a series he wrote on the papal contenders.
Tagle would normally be considered too young for the role, but Benedict XVI's almost unprecedented resignation might have changed the way the cardinals think, he said.
Wednesday, SNAP named its "Dirty Dozen" list of men it judged would be the worst candidates for pope because of their handling of, or comments on, past allegations of child sex abuse against clergy.
The scandal has shaken global confidence in the church in recent years.
A Pew Research Center poll published Wednesday indicates that U.S. Catholics see it as the biggest issue the Vatican faces.
Asked what they think is the most important problem, 34% of the U.S. Catholics questioned mention sex abuse, pedophilia or some other reference to the scandal. No other problem garnered more than 10% of the responses.
A report for Italian news magazine Panorama on Thursday claims that the church hierarchy was alerted to the problem decades ago, in 1965 but buried the warnings.
'Cardinals to vote on conclave date'
The Catholic cardinals gathered in Rome will vote later Friday on the date for the secret election, or conclave, to elect a new pope, a Vatican spokesman said.
The conclave is not expected to begin before Monday but could start some time next week, said the Rev. Federico Lombardi.
There will be 115 cardinal-electors taking part in the conclave, the Vatican confirmed. Only those younger than 80 are eligible to vote.
U.S. cardinals muzzled?
Italian media reports Thursday focused on the Vatican's move to end the news briefings held this week by American cardinals, amid concerns over leaks of confidential discussions among the cardinals.
Sister Mary Ann Walsh, director of media relations for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, wrote in a blog post that the decision Wednesday came after a media report in Italian daily La Stampa, which gave details of who had said what.
"I compared the shutdown to the old Catholic school style of one kid talks and everyone stays after school," she wrote, saying a similar thing happened before the last conclave in 2005.

Excuse me for swearing in church, but what is this fascination with Bolger? The designs are probably effective in that they are easier to build than most boats, and they float. Materials and methods make them cheap. I guess. But does that rate all the exposure this one designer gets on the forum?
I can see there is a place for Walmart and Five & Dime, too. But there is more to life than bugdet stores. There must be loads of other, exciting newer designers that deserve some recognition.
When boat designs are discussed here, Phil and Nat get about 80% of the billing. How about bringing some of the others out a little more often?

Maine Seafood
Maine seafood has attained true cult status. This is partly because of the special properties of the Gulf of Maine, whose deep, cold waters help insure quality and freshness. It is also thanks to the efforts of a large cadre of devoted fishermen and lobsterers trying hard to harvest the sea's bounty safely and wisely.
Maine takes pride in its status as one of the leading producers of farm raised marine seafood in the country. The state's fresh, healthy farm raised clams, oysters, mussels, bay scallops, Atlantic salmon, and steelhead trout comprise its thriving aquaculture industry. These Maine products are exported to national and international markets and represent valuable assets to the state's economy and its innovative equity—the industry is constantly developing new methods to further the seafood farming industry and preserve its beautiful, clean waters. Most shellfish farms are family-owned and operated companies, and Maine also has an aquaculture company that grows seaweed.
Fresh Seafood at Maine Fish Markets
For those who prefer to cook their own seafood, dozens of lobster pounds and fish markets offer seafood straight from the docks—often, in fact, still alive. A list of companies that will ship fresh lobster directly to your home can be found at the Maine Lobster Promotion Council. Or, pick up clams, haddock, diver scallops, cod, smelt, halibut, swordfish, bluefin tuna and Maine peekytoe crab.
If you pay attention to tidal charts, you can watch clammers digging in mudflats, buy some of their harvest, and then make yourself a fresh clam chowder. Try a traditional Maine clam chowder recipe.

Mark Sanford is heading back to Washington after detours along the Appalachian Trail and Argentina.
The former South Carolina governor finished his second term in office three years ago with his political career dead in the water thanks to a well-publicized extra-marital affair and ethics violations. But he came away Tuesday with a victory over Democratic opponent Elizabeth Colbert Busch in the special election for a vacant House seat in the Palmetto State's 1st Congressional District -- the same seat he once held.
Here's what we've learned, or better yet, re-learned, from Sanford's victory
1. Voters give politicians second chances
From the start of his bid for Congress, Sanford was very open on the campaign trail about the affair and made it the subject of his first TV ad. Sanford asked for, and received, political redemption from the voters.
"I want to acknowledge a God not just of second chances but third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth chances, because that is the reality of our shared humanity," said Sanford at his victory celebration Tuesday night. "I am one imperfect man saved by God's grace."
He repeated that theme minutes later at a news conference with reporters.
"I think we're always on the search for redemption and I think this is certainly a degree of political redemption."
Colbert Busch's campaign, as well as two national Democratic groups which contributed money and support to her campaign, highlighted the affair. At their only general election debate, Colbert Busch confronted Sanford about his 2009 secret trip to Argentina to see his mistress.
And her campaign went up with a TV commercial which slammed Sanford for using "tax dollars to visit his mistress in Argentina, disappeared for a week leaving no one in charge, betrayed all who trusted him, then lied to cover it up. Mark Sanford, it's a question of character."
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the pro-Democrat House Majority PAC, which, combined, spent nearly $900,000 to try and defeat Sanford, also spotlighted the affair in their final ads.
But in the end, it wasn't enough.
2. Candidates matter
For all his political baggage, Mark Sanford is a veteran on the campaign trail. And Elizabeth Colbert Busch showed her campaign inexperience at times.
"Sanford may be a flawed candidate but he's a fabulous campaigner," said Republican strategist Hogan Gidley, a former executive director of the South Carolina Republican Party. "Forget the rhetoric or the policy or the delivery -- hand-to-hand, eye-to-eye he's very good and it's impossible to outwork him."
Sanford also seemed to win this election one voter at a time. The candidate appeared to be everywhere in the campaign's closing days. He held nearly 15 events on Monday, with another 10 on Election Day.
3. Turnout matters
We knew Democratic voters were fired up, but the big question concerned Republican voters in a district that the GOP has held for more 30 years. Would they vote even with their reservations about Sanford?
The answer appears to be yes.
It was a high turnout for a special election. Roughly a quarter of the 18-plus population voted, more than 140,000 votes total, according to a CNN analysis of the vote.
"That seems to have helped Sanford," CNN Polling Director Keating Holland said. "Low turnout would have meant a lot of Republicans who were reluctant to vote for him and wouldn't vote for a Democrat. High turnout turns that around: Plenty of Republicans who had misgivings about Sanford came out to vote anyway."
And House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi might be one reason why.
Sanford and his campaign repeatedly tied Colbert Busch to Pelosi, saying that a vote for Colbert Busch would also be a vote for Pelosi, who has high negatives with Republican voters and who most likely would become House speaker again if the Democrats run the table and regain control of the chamber in next year's midterm elections.
"I've fought hard over the years to make South Carolina a better place to call home. But those efforts pale now against the larger battle for the direction of our country. Maybe that's why Nancy Pelosi and allies have spent more than a million dollars to defeat me. But this contest is bigger than them or me, it's about two different visions of how we restore America and reign in Washington spending," Sanford said, looking into the camera in a TV spot that started running district-wide last week.
Two weeks ago he even debated a cardboard cutout of Pelosi to call out Colbert Busch for not accepting more than one debate.

Should you run?
But I never wanted to run. I hate running. I can't run. I had mixed feelings regarding people who run- pity plus indifference. 'Tsk tsk, whatever dude'. Sane people run when chased by dogs.
'Congrats!' I effused to my friend who completed the Marathon.
'You can do it too,' obligatory punctuation followed.
'Why should I run? No marathon shit for me! In the end what have I achieved? Breathlessness? Naah! ' I tried to sound positive and sensitive to what he had achieved.
'Try a half marathon,' my friend would besiege assuring me that I could definitely do it considering my fitness level and so on. As pandering as it was to my ego, I couldn't see myself indulging in such a mindless activity.
'Half Marathon? Yikes! Why would I ever do half of something when I can very well do the full? I would rather run a 5K than something that is called 'half' of something. So demeaning!'
'Call it a 13.1 mile race then.' He was postively giving me a headache.
'Bah! It doesn't just sound cool. I would rather bump my head on a railroad track.' I despised running.
Just a day (24 hours) after this conversation, I signed up for the half marathon on some whim proving that I can't stand up for what I stand for. I had discovered runners high. I couldn't stop running and couldn't explain my predicament to the other non-runners.
Between my training sessions, I had to make a two week trip to India. And I had to run.
The first day my mom was shocked to see me up at 5 am, tying my shoe lace. The last time I woke up at 5 am was when …ermm.. there was no such recorded incident. It was required as it gets too hot after 6 am. Before she could stop me, I was out of the door running in the community feeling on top of the world. This would be great. Being used to run in long stretches on a trail along a river (in my backyard) with squirrels and deer scrambling past, in Bangalore I was encountered with roads that led to other people's gates. I would have to make an abrupt U-turn just to face another dead end. I was running in a freaking maze- in the dark, bumping into the same house again and again. Out of nowhere, seven neighborhood stray dogs congregated and ran after me. There suddenly seemed to be a point in my running...and running fast! I somehow found my way and bolted into my house, breathless, just after scaring the living daylights off an aunty walking with Nikes and a head scarf. I just barely managed 15 minutes and had enough for the day.
My mom was wringing her hands in fury, 'What is wrong with you? Why are you running like a mad woman? What will people say? We have to live in this neighborhood you know. You didn't even have breakfast. What if you fainted?'
Day 2- I decided to run outside the gated compounds of this colony to keep my sanity and my mom's name intact. So I snuck out early and ran along Bhanerghatta road towards this Shiva temple I knew to have a long secluded road. As I ran, people stopped what they were doing and their eyes followed me till eternity or till the awkwardness stopped (whichever came faster). I almost got run over by a few autos. Avoiding running over some kids sleeping on the ground, I leapt into a garbage dump. If I was training for hurdle race, this would have been so worth it. The secluded road did give me a few jitters when strange people appeared out of nowhere. But I managed a good run that day inspite of the locals wondering what 'Goddess' got inside me. I got back home to a livid mom.
'Where were you? Its 2 hours since you left! I sent your mama in search of you. Stop running. Or if you have to, you better not go before the sun rises! It's not safe.'
Day 3. Out of despair, I called up a few elite runner friends in Bangalore and got their advice on options. 'We usually drive to Turali (which is 1 hour away) and then run along this beautiful stretch uphill. Sounded good to me. Plus I would have human company.
'Can you pick me up from my place?'
'South Bangalore eh? Then we'd have to wake up at 3 am.'
'Holy Bambolee! I don't think I can get permission to leave home that early. You see my mom is more used to me staying out till 3 am. She is having a hard time dealing with this. Plus the watchman would think I am eloping. Too much drama. ' I was bummed and thought about Pittsburgh fondly when I could run in abandon anytime I wanted.
Day 4. My mom piled on pooris and aalo subzi on my plate and insisted I eat before going off to the gym. The gym, we decided, would be ideal given the situation. I sauntered off whistling towards the community gym letting my mind wander over the feeling I was going to get after the workout. There were at least dozen men in the gym and the swimming pool just sitting around in their hunches staring at me, some brushing their teeth with neem twigs. I smiled and they all just froze mid activity. They were caretakers and not gym users. I walked into this empty gym with rusting equipment. I opened the windows to let some breeze in and walked over to the treadmill. Hmmm….no treadmill. I looked around in vain and went out to ask one of the guys about the mystery of the missing treadmill.
'Woh andar hai memsaab' (It is inside)
'Accha, Dikhta hai kya?' (Is it visible to naked eye?)
The guy (who is apparently the caretaker or manager of the gym) walked in and scratched his head.
'Kya bola apne?' (What did you say?)
'Treadmill on which you run.' I did some running action to drive the point.
'Agar aap kehte hai, toh nahin hoga.' (If you say so, it probably isn't here) 'Aap dumbbell kar sakte hain memsaab' (You can do dumbbells)
'What do I do now? Can't run outside, can't run inside.' Crestfallen face met puzzled face of Bahadur Singh.
Bhagna zaroori hai? (Should you run?)
PS: In spite of the Universe trying to conspire against me, I finished the Pittsburgh IKEA Half Marathon on Sept 6th in 2 hours 34 min. I wasn't the last person to finish. There was a 10 year old. Yippee! Now if I had dogs following me, I would have had much better timing for sure.

I bet you'd have done better had there been stray dogs in Pittsburgh!
I just run with my dog these days. (Forced to more like ...)I can keep pace with her for a couple miles ... unless she spots a rabbit or gets a whiff of a smell she likes! :) - 9/15/2008 06:31:00 PM
Wow! Congratulations on finishing. I will use this as inspiration to up my distance on a treadmill to 3 miles.

My goal was to do the half too (kinda still is). I started a few years back (from totally unfit to about 8k), then sprained a few parts of my body and slowed down. I tried to keep up during my vacation in India. same deal, dog (just one rabid animal whose attention I caught) chased and I ran into my neighbor's house. My problem is I can't (won't) do steep inclines and that is all I see here. oh, well, may be you have inspired me ;-)
Hoo boy... a half marathon and all. Congratulations. Though you make it sound funny and all, I am sure it involved tons of very hard work and dedication to achieve that.
Perhaps I'm mixing a couple of songs, but I had this vision of Pi wearing white rexine leather trousers, singing "woh jaa rahi hai, meri heroine, hero ka dil karke chori" as you ran along. - 9/16/2008 08:00:00 PM

Woman, you inspire, big time. [And shaddup and accept the compliment gracefully now without any wisecracks. Dare you to.]
And OMG, the comment above - the song is 'sone ki cycle ho, chaandi ki ho seat' or something right? Govinda and Juhi. Aila! No wait, it's some other song. - 9/16/2008 11:00:00 PM

Nice! Congratulations... My first Marathon medal (finishers nevertheless ) is my most priced processions. I am sure u feel the same way. Now its time for u to set a time target on the second. ( I am running my second on oct 19th )

Congratulations! That is great timing.

ROFL...Twin,those were such nice experiences,especially when you're recounting them,right from running into the neighbour's house again and again..:)
But then,all said and done,the hard work paid off,huh? You finished the half marathon.:)Congrats.
ROFL also at the idea of your music prowess being equivalent to that of a donkey in labour..err,a suggestion-please put up one such singing video on youtube??:) - 9/19/2008 02:08:00 AM
Me too. I desperately want to run a marathon at some stage in my life and no point in leaving it any longer. Right now can't run more than half a km without stopping :( Can we be running partners please. Maybe we could do half a marathon before our next birthday
Alpha - Just so that you know, Munimma and I share birthday. Will email my address to you so that you can send me my pressie. And Yes yes congratulations, well done and all that - 9/24/2008 08:30:00 AM
- Alpha said...
thanks all! For the flurry of congrats and of course the approp songs. As the cliche goes for people who have done it and are basking in the glory of not doing a single physical activity ever since, IF I CAN DO IT, SO CAN YOU!
munimma and Wa: dont you need top be in same neighborhood to be running partners and all? What is a pressie?..I thought it might be a present, but kinda dismissed it as a preposterous thought. I dont normally remember anyone's birthday except mine..as a rule. - 9/24/2008 09:12:00 AM

Inspiration Inspiration ... Inspiration...
Me thinks perspiration perspiration perspiration ewww
Alpha - yep i meant present only. And dont worry about forgetting, i will keep sending you reminders. Before you say anything, no i dont want anti perspirant for my b'day present. Thanks - 9/29/2008 03:29:00 PM

Minutes for September 7th, 2011
I. Roll Call

· Approved!
III. Approval of Agenda

IV. Guest Speaker
· Jerry Martinez Director of Financial Aid: an update of what has changed, changes in last year and how they impact us a students and why they were made them. Two new F.A. (Financial Aid) counselors, alphabetized for splitting counselors. No counselor's on staff previously. Helps to effectively communicate to have a better relationship between FA office and students. Why the split between FA and cashier? Designed a plan to separate two functions, we don't want one office to have all the power to do both. FA is now on the ground level of Taylor. FA is now housed with admissions to help create enrollment management, so these needed to be together (FA & Admissions). Moved everything for prospective and continuing students to an online format. Allowed service to be quicker, and access form all homes, ability to accept FA package online.
o Q: Getting a hold of refund check? Why not send a generic email before, for less traffic to FA office?
o A: We did actual send out emails, a big campaign last march. This fall we implemented entire online access. With fall semester bill, explained how refunds would be distributed email is the best way for us to communicate with students. Check your email! That's how we notify, and no longer notify parents. Email campaign hopes to get students acclimated before the fall, and spring hopefully will be better. It will only take 24 hrs to distribute checks in spring. Bill pay system allows access away from Gunny, set up payment plan, set up third party pin access. Imperative to communicate with parents about what's going on. Take's at least a year to get used to a new system. It is more efficient for FA office.
· Work-study was a big one this fall, award less. Last 3-4 years Western has been overspent on work-study. Decided to reduce award ($1450 avg. student), average this year was ($1500). Awarding money that was not being used, and tied up too much money when money was spent. Satisfactory academic progress, required to make this measurement, rules have become stricter to monitor on a per semester basis and to be stricter on these guidelines. The economy is not good, with a high budget deficit the Pell Grant is approximately 32 Billion a year. 75% of all courses need to be completed each semester with a passing grade. If in bad standing, one semester to get in good standing, if not possible and a student has two back-to-back semesters on bad standing then a student goes on probation. Also, cumulative GPA must be above a 2.0 as of July 1st. Awards that went out this year more quickly and more often, to award up front and then if the fed's needed documents then students will know prior to paying. Notification of additional information comes in May. The more communication the better for everyone.
o Q: is there an offer to get a paper check?
o A: one time this fall there will be a possibility to get paper checks. This is an option for students to help get settled under various circumstances.
V. Action Items
· Sustainability Conference Bill-
o Senator questions: what will each students role be? How much of a part do all three students have?
§ Initially four roles created, student oriented, where the other 2 work with recycling and facilities, things began to morph, roles are working with res. life, waste production, product consumption. Presenting same information it is a team effort to do this. Similar roles together, and still forming, sustainability coordinator is usually a paid position. It shows the ability of teamwork, divide and conquer and then reevaluate. All bring various sources of knowledge to the group.
o Q: justify hotel cost of $672, type of hotel, location, price
§ A: one room, 3 coordinators as well as boss. Doubletree Hilton hotel in Pittsburgh walking distance to conference, don't have to deal with cab fares. The one further away was also more expensive.
o Q: How much do you think you have saved at Western State College of Colorado
§ A: I don't think you can actual quantify our work at Western State College of Colorado since most of it is communication and outreach.
o Q: Have you moved any closer to other resources?
§ A: Spoke with boss about other possible sponsorships. She may be willing to make a donation. Also, will speak to SAC, and reevaluate funds from sustainability coalition.
o Q: What is the return on the conference?
§ A: A couple of initiatives to make on campus, unknown of what it will look like, maybe a communication system to better work on the campus as a whole across disciplines. A bigger and better brainstorm of what is happening on campus.
o Q: Address the importance of being allocated an hour?
§ A: This is very prestigious; many students only get 20 min. rather than an hour. Being acknowledged for doing a great job at Western State College of Colorado, where other students are not doing the same things is an honor.
o Q: What will you be presenting?
§ A: Address why positions came into play, why faculty and administration came together to created this image on campus.
o Q: How was the power pledge?
§ A: At orientation gave power strips to any students interested in participating, figuring out how to quantify change per floor, or per building. Perhaps these questions can be answered through surveys.
· Motion to pay for plane tickets and to re-discuss after some time to see if alternate funding is available ($960)
o Allocating $960 now, to revisit next week on the following expenses.
VI. Discussion Items
· Allocation of internal $4,000 and $6,000 from bill ($3,000 is from PC co-sponsorship)
o Grace: In the spring we allocated a full budget making the assumption that full enrollment would exist. We are short 17K. What to do now? We thought we would have 337K but we actually have 319K. We now get to decide what to do. Options: nothing, 1% budget cuts, and giving all money with access reserve, or a combination. 45K in reserve, required to have 20K in reserve unless extreme emergency, then 18K in reserve that we could spend to cover. 2K would be left in reserve if we covered everything. Club sports when in without a budget, so they cannot even make copies of conduct. We assumed 10K would go to clubs, but now they have nothing and so do we. We could reduce 4K from internal (left with 3K for yr.), bill fund would be cut by 6K (6K left/yr.) What to do with the shortfall? Open to discussion.
§ Club sports are important to enrollment and retention. 17K shortfall, reserves are there for emergency, next year we can figure something else out. If we don't grant club sports money it will discredit whole campaign. SGA surplus goes into reserve. Retention at Western 60%, for students in clubs at Western State College of Colorado it is closer to 75%. Club sports starting to fundraise and create incentives, donate X$ and have an incentives for fundraising. This is their basic operating budget.
o Q: Money for emergency-what is considered a bigger emergency?
§ A: This would be considered an emergency, mandatory reserve. We have never faced if we go below our reserve. Last year we overspent by 5K but interest covered it.
o Q: How can we be more frugal in future years, in case enrollment continues to decrease?
§ A: We can make ways to cut money. We won't be able to see as many bills and cut on luxury items like name-brand candy.
o 10K we want to pull from current spending cash for entire year, to keep the afloat. It is a large enrollment tool, which is necessary for sustaining Western State College of Colorado.
o Vote on club sports today
o 1% cuts would decrease by 3K.
o Motion to give 4K from internal for sports (Everyone) Passed
o Motion for senators to cut 6K from bill for sports (7/7) Passed
§ Club sports have money
o Motion to move budget discussion to next week.

o Type up committees tonight, and will email out. Check lists will also be emailed.

Government shutdown directly affecting Veterans Benefits Administration
IRON MOUNTAIN -- Don Jokinen, 28, was serving in Iraq when an accident left him disabled. "We were IED hunters; I was blown up almost five times, pretty much directly," said Jokinen. "I have lots of medical stuff--TBI, PTSD, back strain, neck and degenerative joint disease."
Since then he's been receiving veteran benefits, but due to the current government shutdown, there will be no money coming into his family on November 1. "Coming up with the money, period, with the income level we're at and the little savings we do have, I'll maybe be able to make it a month," Jokinen said.
And Don is just one of countless disabled veterans who wouldn't be receiving their monthly compensation. Take Vietnam veteran Don Lison, for example. Veteran benefits are his main source of income. "The VA pension is basically two-thirds of my pay, so now I have a home payment coming up that I have no idea how I'm going to make that payment," said Lison.
Disabled veterans aren't the only ones experiencing first-hand the effects of the shutdown. Over 7,000 Veterans Benefits Administration employees have been furloughed, which means all of the major regional offices are closed. "That means veterans can't go to that Veterans Benefits Administration to actually apply for benefit, to check on their benefit or anything; they can't get into the building," said Veteran Affairs Dickinson County officer, Chuck Lantz. This also means access to reports on benefits and claims will be brought to a standstill, and in fact, the VA is seeing over 725,000 pending benefits claims that are backlogged.
The entire situation is upsetting for many, and for others, it's a scary prospect. "I might have to put the house up for sale," Jokinen said. Don Lison said the government isn't living up to their side of the contract. "It's the first time I know that the federal government has defaulted on the promise to the vets," Lison said. "When you join, it's a contract. It says you have to serve; that's part of being a citizen. Especially in my generation, we had the draft, so you didn't have a choice. But the other side of the coin was if something happened to you, which in my case did, then we will take care of the problem."
"We need to rise up as veterans. This cannot happen to our veterans," Lantz said.

SOURCE Barrow Neurological Institute
PHOENIX, Oct. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- After five years of suffering from dementia-like symptoms and unable to play guitar, Alice Cooper's former bandmate and guitar legend Dick Wagner has returned to music after having been successfully treated for a commonly misdiagnosed brain condition. Wagner, 70, was treated by Joseph Zabramski, MD, at Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, and today is back in the spotlight.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131008/LA94411)
Wagner, who lives in Arizona, and co-wrote the majority of the Alice Cooper Band's top selling songs, including the hit "Welcome to My Nightmare," thought his profession as a guitarist was over when he began to exhibit symptoms such as memory loss and gait.
"I couldn't turn to the left as I walked, I would often fall, and I could no longer play guitar," says Wagner. I didn't know what was happening to me and I thought my career was over."
Wagner sought help from Barrow Neurological Institute and was diagnosed with normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH), a condition caused by a build-up of spinal fluid in the brain. The spinal fluid puts pressure on the nerves that control the legs, bladder and cognitive function. The symptoms are similar to Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's, but with NPH, they are reversible.
Wagner immediately began feeling his symptoms subside after undergoing surgery in which neurosurgeon Dr. Zabramski surgically placed a permanent shunt in Wagner's brain that drains a small amount of spinal fluid every day.
"I was like a new man overnight," says Wagner. "For five years I didn't have the strength or coordination to pick up the guitar. That all changed immediately after surgery. I got my life back."
NPH typically strikes after age 55. An estimated 200,000 to 400,000 Americans suffer from NPH and the number is on the rise because of an aging population.
"Because NPH mimics the symptoms of Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's, the condition is very difficult to diagnose," says Dr. Zabramski. "An estimated 5 percent of all dementia patients actually have NPH, which is correctable."
Barrow's Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center has created a clinic to screen and diagnose NPH patients. The condition is diagnosed with a CT scan or MRI followed by a spinal tap. Once a patient is diagnosed, they undergo surgery to implant the shunt. Most patients instantly feel their symptoms reverse.
Wagner, who is also known for writing songs for KISS and Aerosmith, is now back on the road touring and promoting a book he recently authored.
"I made a complete turnaround of my life after my surgery," says Wagner. "It feels great to be back on the stage."

looking for a bit of advice here fellas...
Right first off......i developed some gyno around 4/5 months ago after id done a 4week megavol cycle, i didnt have it before so my only guess is its from the megavol... a little naive and with the advice of a friend i took only inhibit-E for my PCT (stupid i no) anyway after a good few lazy months and and work commitments in the way circumstances have now changed and here i am again wanting to do another cycle.
My stats.
Not sure of my BF%
Hopefully with this cycle i am going to reduce my gyno and get some decent gains whilst also lowering my bf%.
Ive been looking for a PH that is the most "gyno friendly" so it does not get any worse and from what i have found i think RPN HAVOC is the way am gna go followed by LETRO, NOLVA, and lastly FORMA-STANZOL.
So heres the plan so far....
LIV 52 (3x3 daily)
LETRO 2.5mg ED
FORMA-STANZOL (thinking 5 pumps AM and 5 pumps PM) applied directly to the chest area and around the nipples.
Can you run FORMA-STANZOL whilst on nolva???
Any views on dosages or or plan layout please let me no.
This is still a work in progress so any criticism or guidance would be very much appreciated as im sure ill be missing something somewhere.

Emtek is dedicated to bringing interesting, well made hardware back into American homes. Until about 1930 there was a proud history of hardware in America. Hundreds of small factories made an enormous variety of creatively designed products. Craftsmen from many disciplines devoted their energies to making locks that provided both function and beauty. Unfortunately, during the depression many of these factories failed, and then during WWII brass became scarce and lock designs were reduced to the bare essentials. In more recent years the emphasis on cheap, high volume building products has discouraged manufacturers from re-introducing well made hardware. But now these ideas are changing, Americans are re-discovering the satisfaction that comes from owning well designed products. Emtek's mission is to make it possible for home owners to apply these higher expectations to door locks. We are striving to provide a broad, interesting range of products that consumers can use as elements of decor, not just as a way to latch a door.

Dedicated by the Jacobs and Chill Families in Memory of Harold and Pearl JacobsDora Bas Rivka Silver O'H
Devarim - Sh'vi'i
Rabbi Yitzchak Etshalom
"There's No Need to Fear!"
Moshe told the Tribes who inherited the land in Trans-Jordan that they were receiving their portion conditionally. They had to cross into Israel and fight the Canaanite nations alongside the other Tribes. They could leave their families and flocks in their cities, but they couldn't join them there until all the Tribes had also been given their portions.
Moshe also told Yehoshua to take note of what God had done to Sichon and Og. That's exactly what He would do to the Canaanite kings, so Yehoshua had no reason to fear.

I'm in the process of reevaluating software for GTD because i've decided to switch from android to the iphone. I already have an ipad. I know the standard which everything is compared to is Omnifocus but Omnifocuses' cloud part is weak. I want to be able to manage everything from my PC (windows too. The current app i use on android (ultimate to-do list) is really nothing more than a glorified task manager. I want an app that is more closely aligned with GTD.
I don't mind paying for the app but i shouldn't have to pay $10-$20 per year for syncing.
The cloud version can be tooledo but it would be nice if they own (usually looks a lot nicer). Tooledo is pretty generic looking (especially the way some of these apps make a mess of things on the tooledo side) but at least i could be somewhat productive on a pc
Here are some of the features i would like:
Sync with IOS Calander / Google Calander.
Sync with IOS Reminders would also be nice.
Apps i've looked at:
"Action Lists" - Interface seems very good and app seems well aligned to GTD Principles.
Things - Like Omnifocus no cloud version.
ActionAgenda - this app seems really nice and has a nice price too. I really lilke how it integrates your task + Calender.
ToDo - looked like another glorified task manager
Any advice / help would be appreciated.

Secrets Of The Moon
Black metal. What better way for a modern warrior of the world to unwind after being out in the freezing wind? There were apprehensions--black metal for this listener is usually hit or miss--depthful and moody or generic and tired. Beauteous blast beast or beer belly buffoonery. The opening feedback glitches and warm bass tones chilled then thawed my skin and though not familiar with the German band, I knew it was going to be an engaging journey through an arena of music with long established laurels, and firmly established creative forces.
Rising from the sinister and layered "Nowhere 11.18" like Freddy Krueger claws-first through your mattress comes a sound job spewed from Purgatory: cymbals cold and sharp; bass drums a subsonic punch; and guitars sporting a detuned fuzzy edge that'd be comforting if it weren't framing such ominous processional chords. "Versus" exposes the real meat of Secret of the Moon's sound; simple melodic motifs picked in single notes and tremolo, alternating with a finite collection of roaring detuned riffs. These come together over lengthy, mostly linear songs that initially resemble a modernised early Bathory, a more malevolent latter day Immortal, or perhaps a militant Shining. Each track develops a striving and melodic narrative reach that is hamstrung slightly by an ambivalent stance to formula from track to track. "Lucifer Speaks" and the closing half of "Ghost" for example, sound as if they could have been from the same sessions that produced Death Cult Armageddon with their symphonic guitars and lackadaisically rasping vocals; the former complete with a love-it-or-loathe-it hate chant. Their faintly cheesy aroma is luckily not as melancholic as the rest of Antithesis, which unravels like a funeral march over eschatological battlefields, swathed in a sound that augurs the brooding post-apocalyptic airs of a more stylised band such as Zyklon.
The heavier riffs and deliciously varied drumming that feature over the duration of Antithesis often have a death-doom musculature that offsets the full, classic black metal narratives suggested by the skeleton of melodic ideas and furious, blasting bridges. While another contemporary narrative black metal band such as Deathspell Omega uses their heavier riff sets as sequents in linear context to the whole, Secrets of the Moon here sound dichotomised, as if folkloric father and urban mythic son are discoursing independently for a piece of our ear pie. "Metamorphoses" in particular contrasts the archaic flavour of Latin chanting and fast double bass with a fun but unruly propensity to revert to syncopated mid pace chugs. Despite such fragmentations, the album's stomping dirges and ethereal, musty tremolos still gradually cycle to majestic climaxes, even the almost-plagiarised and sluggish "Lucifer Speaks".
Although the vocals don't trouble to make themselves noticed, the words behind them do. Litanies unite vivid corporeal images and mantra-like commands that pull the listener into uncertain spiritual precipices, and do much to temper the intrepid theatricality bubbling away under the surface of the music. The aggressive tones of "Ordinance" come to mind, its swaggering bulk steered with intelligible chants of 'you cruel king' throughout. Other invectives pepper the songs with almost Khanate-like lyrical doom, and I only wish I had the space to demonstrate the rest.
Antithesis ultimately comes across as a hugely headbangable experience and presages some hopefully boundary pushing material to come from Secrets of the Moon. In spite of (or probably because of) its deceptive simplicity, perhaps the greatest accolade I can offer this record is sheer longevity; its songs face up to many listens, and may yet echo their doom at Judgement Day long after the last hate chants have been sloughed away from something actually evil.

Still in love after 70 years
Herald Reporter
Woody and Mary Humphries have discovered the secret to a successful marriage.
"Every time we had an argument, I always got the last word," Woody said with a grin. "My last words were always, 'yes, ma'am.'"
The two laugh at each other as if they were newlyweds. Perhaps laughter is the secret to a happy and fulfilling marriage because the two will celebrate 70 years together next week.
"The Lord has blessed us with so many years," Mary said. "We have been and are doing great."

There's been an outpouring of support from celebrities and CNN readers alike after CNN's Anderson Cooper publicly acknowledged Monday that he's gay.
The "AC 360?" anchor wrote in an e-mail to the Daily Beast's Andrew Sullivan that was posted online Monday, saying that in a perfect world, no one would care about his sexuality, but he's come to understand the "value in making clear where I stand."
"The fact is, I'm gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn't be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud," Cooper wrote.
His readers and fellow media personalities have commended his move to publicly come out, sharing what his friends, family and colleagues already knew:
