Angelo may not be in the specfic drilling area, but we will see a lot of new people, and they will want somewhere to live. I have a friend who got a great job in Big Lake about two years ago. He is still living in his travel trailer; making nice money, but there is no housing available in Big Lake.
The Eagle Shale is 2-3 years ahead of us, we could do worse than to look at that, learn from it, and plan for it.
Yes, I hear the potential problems, but if we manage it well, this is an opportunity more than a problem. Any of these well paid people who land in San Angelo will be paying taxes every time they buy groceries, beer, or "lap dances".
It's not as though Angelo is going to turn into the DFW Metroplex overnight, we are just going to to see a lot of new people, I don't know, but 15-20 thousand is a ballpark estimate as Cline ramps up. We can get ready for it or be shocked, shocked I say by it.

Please don't misconstrue the following as me being an ungrateful human. I truly AM thankful for the opportunity to spend 3 months traveling all across the United States doing cool things like hiking Mailbox Peak and camping the California coastline. BUT (!) do you know what sitting in a car for hours of driving does to the body??! My illiopsoas was screaming and at one point I'm pretty sure I was unable to sit up straight in the seat without complaining, "UGH. My back!"
And this is the part where Mobility WOD and Gymnastics WOD save my day. Before taking off on this road trip, we had the foresight to bring gymnast rings. There is a whole slew of bodyweight workouts you can do while on vacation – throw in a set of rings and you've now got, like, double that. (I'm just guessing.) So, after un-tightening the hip flexors and other parts with the help of a lacrosse ball, we'd knock out a GWod on rings hung on a tree branch. One particularly helpful Gymnastics WOD was the "Skin the Cat and Bridge Ups" WOD. The skin-the-cat maneuver just really helped my upper back and shoulders while bridge ups just stretched everything out. I kid you not, I felt like I had a new bod.
But, of course I can't just hang rings at my campsite and NOT have fun with it. Who DOESN'T love just hanging upside down?? My oh-so-French camp neighbors kept staring like, "Those crazy Americans thinking they're Nadia Comaneci!" I tried NOT to stare like "Whoa! Those crazy French!" when one of the guys, wearing nothing but his underoos, proceeded to change said underoo outside of his tent. I did, however, lose my grip on those rings… for no reason in particular. So while Mobility WOD and Gymnastics WOD can save your back from the rigors of car-riding, they can't save you from the unintentional glimpse of French nuts.

Genital Herpes - Prevention
You can take measures to reduce your risk of becoming infected with genital herpes (HSV) infection or another sexually transmitted infection (STI). You can also reduce the risk of transmitting HSV to your sex partner(s).
Preventing an STI is easier than treating an infection after it occurs.
Under the Affordable Care Act, many health insurance plans will cover preventive care services, including checkups, vaccinations and screening tests, at no cost to you. Learn more.
- Talk with your partner about STIs before beginning a sexual relationship. Find out whether he or she is at risk for an STI. Remember that it is quite possible to have an STI without knowing it. Some STIs, such as HIV, can take up to 6 months before they can be detected in the blood.
- Be responsible.
- Avoid sexual contact if you have symptoms of an STI or are being treated for an STI.
- Avoid sexual contact with anyone who has symptoms of an STI or who may have been exposed to an STI.
- Don't have more than one sexual relationship at a time. Your risk for an STI increases if you have several sex partners.
For more information, see the topic Safe Sex.
Vaccines that can prevent a genital herpes infection are not currently available. But research has shown that an HSV-infected person in a heterosexual, single-partner (monogamous) relationship who takes the antiviral medicine valacyclovir daily to prevent recurrent outbreaks also reduces the risk of infecting his or her partner.2 Other antiviral medicines may also reduce transmission, but further study is needed.
Condom use
Condom use reduces the risk of spreading or becoming infected with an STI, including genital herpes. Condoms must be in place before beginning any sexual contact. Use condoms with a new partner until you are certain he or she does not have an STI. You can use either male or female condoms.
Even if you are using another birth control method to prevent pregnancy, you may wish to use condoms to reduce your risk of getting an STI. Female condoms are available for women whose male partners do not have or will not use a condom.
Doctors recommend that people abstain from sex while they feel tingling or pain in the genital area, which may mean that an HSV outbreak is coming (prodrome), or when a genital herpes blister or sore is present. At other times, condoms help reduce transmission of HSV even when blisters or sores are not present.
Genital herpes and pregnancy
A woman who gets genital herpes while she is pregnant is at risk of passing the infection to her baby during delivery. A newborn can become seriously ill if infected with the herpes simplex virus. For this reason it is very important to prevent genital herpes infection during pregnancy.
- Tell your doctor if you have been exposed to genital herpes or have had an outbreak in the past.
- Let your doctor know if you are currently having an outbreak of genital herpes, especially if it is during the last part of your pregnancy.
- Avoid unsafe sex. Genital herpes infection is often transmitted by people who do not know they are infected and do not have symptoms. Use condoms.
- Avoid receiving oral sex from partners who have cold sores. Herpes in newborns can be caused by HSV-1, the virus that most commonly causes cold sores. Most experts advise pregnant women not to receive oral sex in the last three months of their pregnancy. It increases their risk of genital infection with HSV-1.
- Antiviral medicine can be used safely in pregnancy to reduce the number of outbreaks or shorten the length of an outbreak.
- Acyclovir (Zovirax) is used in the last 4 weeks of pregnancy to reduce the risk of a recurrent outbreak at the time of delivery. This lower risk, in turn, makes it less likely that delivery by cesarean section will be needed.
If you are having a genital herpes outbreak, wash your hands after using the bathroom or having any contact with blisters or sores. This is especially important for people who are caring for babies.

Serena Hotels wins African Business Award
Serena Hotels is this year's winner of the coveted "Best Hospitality, Travel and Tourism in Africa" Award. The "African Business Awards 2012" ceremony was held Hotel in London.
Now in its fifth year, the African Business Awards is the key annual event for the African Business World and is the most sought after award by Africa's leading companies and entrepreneurs. Organized by the African Business Magazine (ABM) and the Commonwealth Business Council (CBC), the African Business Awards has become a platform to celebrate excellence and best practices in African business and recognizes organizations that have driven Africa's rapidly transforming economy.
On this front Serena Hotels was recognized for making outstanding contribution to the development of the continent, the economic aspirations of its citizens, the transformation of Africa's image in international markets by branding the six destinations that it has presence in as an attractive tourism destination and for providing the highest standards of service and product whilst operating in a sensitive manner towards monitoring the interests of the local population including their traditions, culture and future development.
Mahmud Janmohamed, Managing Director of Serena Hotels said that recognition for excellence is indeed an honor, and the sustainable integrated ethical approach to development of the Serena brand for over four decades with a current portfolio of twenty four properties in six African countries is gratifying.
"As market leaders, awards such as being the "Best Hospitality, Travel and Tourism Company in Africa" inspires the Company as we believe that profitability and development are two notions that can serve each other," Janmohamed said. "The company continues to work on supporting the growing tourism industry in Eastern Africa by seeking investment opportunities and validates its belief that with the changing nature of guest expectations it is the quality of service and product that will continue to determine the destination choices which clients make."
Serena Hotels has a portfolio of twenty-four hotels, luxury camps, safari lodges and resorts located in Kenya, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Uganda, Rwanda and Mozambique, and eleven properties in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Tajikistan.

How to Make a Halloween Mobile
This is a craft for children between the ages of 5 and 12. Older children may want to put their creative twist on it and add more details and decorations to the objects. Younger children may need assistance cutting out the shapes and assembling the mobile. Making a mobile is fun and can be used as a party decoration, home decoration, or given as a gift to a grandparent or other relative. The following will show a mobile with jack-o-lanterns, witches hats, and ghosts, but you can add other Halloween objects or simply stick to ghosts.
What You Will Need for a Halloween Mobile
Items will vary based on what you want your final mobile to look like, but here are some starting suggestions:
- Craft Foam (Black, Green, Brown, White, and Orange)
- Googly Eyes
- Foam Glue
- Scissors
- Twine, Fishing Line, or other String
- Wire Hanger
- Wire Cutters
- Pliers
- Markers
- Ball Point Pen
- Needle
- Stapler
How to Make the Pumpkins
Step 1: On the orange craft foam draw or trace a pumpkin shape using the ball point pen.
NOTE: You can freehand the pumpkin shapes or use a cookie cutter to trace the shape.
Step 2: Cut out the pumpkin.
Step 3: Use the black craft foam to create jack-o-lantern eyes, noses, and mouths to decorate each pumpkin.
Variation: You can simply make pumpkins if you do not want to make the jack-o-lanterns.
Step 4: Glue on the face using the Foam Glue. Foam Glue is a special glue that adheres to the foam. It works better for this type of project than normal school glue. You can purchase foam glue from Meijer, Walmart or from online resources for around $3.
Step 5: Cut out a leaf for each of the pumpkins using the green craft foam. You can get more creative and cut out vines and a brown pumpkin stem.
Step 6: Glue on the leaf and/or stem.
How to Make the Witches Hat
Step 7: Draw a circle with a 4″ diameter.
NOTE: Use a large cup to make a perfect circle.
Step 8: Fold the circle in half and cut down the middle.
Step 9: Take one half of the circle and create a cone out of as shown.
Step 10: Staple the cone in place.
Step 11: Cut out a second circle half the diameter (the radius) of the first circle. For the one shown, a 4″ circle was used, so the second circle is 2″ in diameter.
Step 12: Fold the smaller circle in half and cut out the center (for this it was slightly smaller than one inch).
Step 13: Cut small slits (about 1/8″)around the interior of the circle.
Step 14: Slide the smaller circle over the cone and flatten to create the brim of the witches hat.
NOTE: you can decorate the area of the hat where the "teeth" of the brim stand up around the cone. Orange tissue paper, twine, or other materials work well for this.
How to Make the Ghost
Step 15: Using the ball point pen draw several ghost shapes on the white craft foam each 3 to 4 inches tall.
Step 16: Cut out the ghost.
Step 17: Using the Foam Glue, glue the googly eyes to the ghost.
Step 18: Cut out a small mouth for each ghost using black craft foam or simply color an area on the ghost using a fine tipped marker or black ball point pen.
How to Make a Halloween Mobile
After creating each object to dangle from your mobile you will need to create ring to hold all of them. If you don't have wire cutters or pliers you can simply use the wire hanger as is.
Step 19: Cut off the top of the wire hanger and form the hanger into a circle.
NOTE: Twist the ends of the hanger around the rest of the wire using the pliers.
Step 20: Use fishing line to hang up the ghost.
NOTE: A thick needle works the best to pierce each object without tearing it up.
Step 21: Thread each object with a string and tie it around the metal hanger ring.
Step 22: Cut as many pieces needed of twine in various lengths to hang up the witches hats (one piece per hat).
Step 23: Tie a knot in the end of each piece of twine.
Step 24: Use twine to hang up the witches hats. Simply thread the twine through the small hole at the tip of the cone starting from the inside of the hat and going up with the knot at the bottom of the twine.
Step 25: Tie the other end to the metal loop.
Step 26: Color several pieces of twine green to resemble pumpkin vines.
Step 27: Attach the twin vines to the stem of each pumpkin and tie to the wire loop.
Allow each item to dangle from the loop and adjust length as necessary before trimming the ends of the strings. After attaching all the items you can decorate the loop with ribbon. For this project we used green ribbon to create a loop to hang up the mobile. The project is finished. You can hang it in a front hallway in front of a window or from the ceiling to add Halloween spirit in any room.
Do you have any craft ideas or suggestions? Feel free to post questions or comments below.

I've seen many pugs in my lifetime (cue flashback to my obese pug, Zsa Zsa) but none like Ed. This little guy's mom bit his leg off when he was a baby, forcing him to live on with just three legs. You read that right.
Ed has been walking on his three little legs, until now. The Australian pug finally received a specially-designed prosthetic leg from OrthoPets. After eight agonizing weeks of waiting for his new leg, Ed is now taking strolls like a total boss throughout his neighbourhood.

We've told you all about Adrienne, the Boston College law student who did a sexy swimsuit spread for a magazine. And we've been all over (hehe) Adriana, the Brooklyn Law School 3L who romped naked before the camera for Playboy TV.
But let's set the record straight. The phenomenon of law students taking it off for the camera is nothing new.
Well before Adrienne and Adriana, there was Oona O'Connell. From a tipster:
"A first year associate at my firm told me about this… He went to U. Miami and knew a fellow law student who posed for Playboy."
"Apparently, her name is Oona O'Connell (which could be either the name of her first pet or the street she lived on as a kid, if my porn-name generator is correct). She is a 3L at the University of Miami Law School, and she's also a Hawaiian Tropic model. Apparently she was in the May 2006 issue of Playboy, and she may shoot a 'feature' for an upcoming issue."
"The only female nudity at MY law school took place when the student ACLU girls went topless to protest a local nudity ordinance. They were not airbrushed. OY."
More about this comely young law student, including links to her Playboy pics, after the jump.
Our source included a link to what appears to be an Oona O'Connell fan website [potentially NSFW ("not safe for work"), no nudity, but lots of exposed flesh]. That site offers this mini-bio (all spelling and grammatical errors in the original):
Oona O'Connell is a 23 years old and a student at the University of Miami school of law. She has just started modeling. Shooting for Model of the Month was her first Professional shoot. Soon after was lucky to win first place in the South Florida State finals for Miss Hawaiian Tropic. To which it won her a trip to Hawaii to compet in the USA Finals. Oona O'Connell place in top 20 in that event. It's no surprise to me, she looks great in a bikini. Oona O'Connell is a pianist and private piano teacher as well. She loves traveling, and can speak French and Spanish.
Oona also loves all kinds of physical activity, such as dancing, working out, sports, and especially jogging with her dog Monty in the morning's.
Oona O'Connell "loves all kinds of physical activity." Color us surprised.
Our tipster also sent us a link to one of Oona's Playboy photos. Obviously it is NSFW. If you're not at work, in class, or in any other place where viewing nude photos would be inappropriate, click here, to conduct an "in camera" examination of Ms. O'Connell. Enjoy.
UPDATE: The link was changed after we originally posted it. We think we have fixed the problem. Clicking on the link should now take you to a "popup" image of Oona O'Connell.

The ISTD dance qualifications can be used as part of the specialist learning within the Creative and Media Diploma, and as additional learning in all other Diplomas.

Most books about the saints are thin on women, especially contemporary women.
See also:
Even Butler's LIVES OF THE SAINTS, the 'bible' of this category, lists far more men than women.
No book about the saints could ignore such beloved early martyrs as Agnes of Rome and Lucy of Syracuse but this new book will introduce readers to many new women who have been canonized or beatified by Pope John Paul II.
Of the more than 377 women mentioned in the book, 159 have been canonized or beatified since 1979.
Approximately 100 of them lived in the twentieth century.
This new book is also unique in that it uses the saint's own words wherever possible, taking advantage of newly discovered archives, memoirs and other primary sources.
It will contain resources such as internet shrines and other websites, as well as little–known information on the canonization process..

Lily May Caldwell
From Bhamwiki
Lily May Caldwell (born c. 1897 in Houston, Texas - died June 15, 1980 in Birmingham) was the long-time entertainment and amusements editor for the Birmingham News.
Caldwell was born in Houston and grew up in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, where she became interested in newspaper work. She joined the News staff in 1921, starting in classified ads and working her way up to reporting arts and entertainment stories within a few years. For many years, Caldwell helped produce the News-sponsored Miss Alabama pageant by raising money for scholarships and organizing the show itself. She organized the 1950 pageant which launched Yolanda Betbeze on her way to winning Miss America in 1951.
Caldwell maintained correspondence with numerous Alabamians in the entertainment business, such as Gail Patrick, and interviewed most any celebrity who came through Birmingham on a promotional trip. She was also interested in national politics and kept up correspondence with Franklin Roosevelt's secretarial pool.
Caldwell traveled extensively to cover entertainment events and Broadway shows. She retired as editor of the News entertainment section in 1966.
Caldwell never married. She died in Birmingham in 1980. Her papers are held in the manuscript collections at the UAB Archives.

Ask Ali
Alison Cullen is a Nutritional Therapist with a special interest in Phytotherapy.
Ali will endeavour to give the best advice based on the information provided. However, it is always advisable to have a face-to-face consultation with a doctor or health care practitioner to obtain a diagnosis of any health matter which is concerning you.
Q I have phlebitis in my leg. My doctor has told me to rest it. I do rest it and hope that the ailment will go. Please can you give me any advice?
A Phlebitis involves inflammation of a vein, and the causes can include obesity, smoking, a sedentary lifestyle, a job that involves standing all day, or poor circulation. Rest your legs, as your doctor advises, and make sure that you elevate them (on the foot of the bed or the arm of the sofa) for 20 minutes each day. Wearing support stockings can help reduce the discomfort caused by phlebitis.
Take an extract of Horse Chestnut, a herb that strengthens the veins, for at least three months to see improvements in your vein. It can be taken long term if you are prone to phlebitis. If you have poor circulation generally, once your condition improves it will be beneficial for you to take a gentle 10 to 20 minute walk daily to stimulate the circulatory system.
Q My daughter has a resit to do at college. Could you recommend something for her for concentration and memory and also for the stress she is bound to experience at the time?
A In cases of exam stress, I have found an extract of Avena sativa to be very helpful. This should be taken from now until the start of her exam. It will help calm her and is a good source of B vitamins, which are used by the body for nervous system function.
For the emotional stress I would recommend that she try Emergency Essence for a week before the exam and Concentration Essence and Emergency Essence during the exam. These will help to focus her mind on the task in hand. I wish her every success and hope these recommendations aid a successful result.
Q Could you please give advice on acute sciatica, left side? Should I seek out a physiotherapist?
A I have often found that my patients respond well to CranioSacral therapy for sciatica. This is a form of gentle manipulation and you can find a therapist in your area by calling the Upledger Institute on 01738 444404. I also often prescribe St John's Wort oil. This is applied externally to the area that is painful.
We regret that it is not possible for us to print answers to all the letters Ali receives. Remember that back issues of Healthy Way articles and Ask Ali are available on this site.

Earlier on Eason told reporters he was not very confident in winning the awards, but his "Here Is The Way" has won him the Metro Hits World Song. Eason explained "This song has got the points from the whole world's radio station. Mandarin songs have a bigger market, I don't have confident." Eason was particularly happy that Kay Tse, Khalil Fong and Hins Cheung all received an award. He reckoned this year Joey and Kay will have a competition. "I am Kay's fan"

The increasingly crustified latter-day statesman of vintage rock, Mr Lennington "Leonard" Kravitz will be appearing live on stage, performing a medley of his biggest hit at the Australian Grand Prix this year.
Kravitz, 68, is perhaps best known in F1 circles for being the father of pit-lane reporter Theodore Leonard "Ted" Kravitz, who was named after the unsuccessful 1970/1980s F1 team Leonard Kravitz Racing.
"Are you gonna go my way, Ted? Well, are you?" – Leonard, desperately in need of a Slash, yesterday.
It is unclear whether or not Kravitz Snr will be bringing his marmoset with him to the concert.
"You must push with much force," said Lenny to his marmoset.
Regardless, a Blarney good time is guaranteed for all, with Irish hardcore outfit The Cranberries also scheduled to appear at the event (performing their popular song Lingonberry, no doubt), alongside everyone's favourite political folk activists from County Dublin, The Wolfe Mother.

What you will learn
In this tutorial we will learn how to create a post-apocalyptic scene using the powerful 3D space and projection techniques in NUKEX. Throughout these lessons we will go over how to composite elements such as fire and smoke, and make them as real as possible. We will be using the powerful 3D system in NUKE to position these elements properly. We are going to create a whole new environment within our scene. We will then export our camera to Maya and set up our scene and effects. You will learn new techniques in this course, as well as the skills it takes to work faster as a compositor.

Welcome back. And in this lesson, we are going to export our NUKE camera and our point cloud to MAYA and position our 3D objects and render it out and put it back into NUKE and composite it. All right. Let's start this. All right. I'm going to create a WriteGeo node. And I'm going to create a [? MergeGeo ?] node. And I'm going to plug this in my camera. And I'm going to plug this in here. All right. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to export this out to my tutorial folder, and I'm going to call this my FBX. I'm going to call this mycamera.fbx. So we only need my camera, and let's execute this. Don't just proxy. Our proxy's on, but don't use that. And just render it out. And the same thing we have to do for our point cloud. So I'm going to put it in here, put my [? MergeGeo ?] in here. And I'm going to set my point cloud. I'm going to call this Point Cloud. Really easy. Execute. All right. I'm going to work in MAYA 2011. We are going to export it. Import our camera and our point cloud, and then we are going to position our 3D model in here and composite it. All right. Load up my MAYA. And then we're go to create our foreground element and make it as real as possible and with not a lot of tools. So here we go. I'm going to import my FBX file. First, my camera. And we're going to set up our frame to 148. And as you can see, our camera should move. Yep, it is moving. Great. So I'm going to do the same thing with my points cloud. And here we go. We got our point cloud. It's really small, so what I'm going to do. I'm going in my Outliner. And I see all my locators. There's really a lot. But we need it. And we're going to select them all. Go into my channel and set my scale to something like 0.2. Yeah, it's better I think. A little bit smaller, 0.1. Yeah, here we go. And I'm going to-- I'm going to group my locators. Call this Point Cloud. And then I'm going to group them both. And we've got our center point. And now we can just scale it up as big as we want. We are not going to work with scale, because I'm not going to use that, because I'm going to show you just how to if you don't have all this information. Because you won't get those information if you're not like a professional. So I'm going to show how to do this without scale and everything and still make it look right. I'm going to make it a little bit smaller. Something like 0.3. Yeah, that works. All right. We're going to view our cam [INAUDIBLE]. And as you can see, it works. It moves nicely. You can see our building in the back and our foreground element. This is the pillar, and we've got our ground. And everything is really nice on the ground. So what are we going to do? We're going to load up our camera. We're going to select our camera. And we are going to our Attributes Editor, and we are going to our environment and create our image plane. I'm sorry if I'm going too fast, but this is not a MAYA for beginners. I'm going to do this really fast, because I want to focus on the compositing and not on the 3D stuff. Anyways, we're going back to our image plane, and we're going to create an image plane. All right. Go to my image plane. I'm going to be going back to my folder. And I'm going to my sky replacement. And there's nothing inside of it, enough footage. Here we go. We've got our footage, and we're going to open it. And we're going to look in our camera, and here we go. It's not moving, so we have to Use as Image Sequence. And as you can see it should move the same way as the camera, but oh, I think I saw something. I don't know if you guys saw it, but if you look at this building, the points are floating. You see that? All right. We're going to fix that. And first of all, if you have this problem, don't worry. Don't stress. Just find out what is wrong. All right, so we filmed this in 25 frames per second. MAYA standard is 24 frames per second. So we go into our Preferences. That is over here. Go into your Settings. And here we go, we can see film 24 frames, and we're going to set it to PAL. Because sorry if I'm Europe, and this is what we use over here. I'm going to save this. So now this should stay. And it's a little bit longer, so I'm going to [INAUDIBLE]. And play this. And as you can see, everything is loaded up fine. So what we've done very quick, we've got our new information imported to MAYA, and now we are going to start placing our geometry and everything. So I'm just going to make up a flat plane, and I'm going to go into my cam [INAUDIBLE], and I'm going to move it a little bit in front. I know this is the pillar, so I'm going to put more in the front of it. And because there is no shadows, I don't have to worry about where the sun is from, and I can just put my plane over here and I know this is the ground. So really fast. I'm just positioning my plane over here, so my CG element can stand over here on the ground. All right in this lesson, we learned how to create our camera and import everything from NUKE into MAYA and get ready for the next lesson, because we're going to start curating our CG element and render it out into NUKE. All right, see you in the next lesson.

5,000 gallons of untreated wastewater discharged into pond
TABOR CITY, NC (WECT) – Approximately 5,000 gallons of untreated wastewater was discharged from the Tabor Correctional Facility on N.C. Hwy. 904, according to Town Hall officials.
The discharge occurred intermittently for three hours on Friday. The untreated wastewater entered a correctional facility detention pond because the wastewater pumps were clogged. Town crews cleared the pumps and rented new equipment while repairmen fix the problem.

Poor, Poor Sarah [t r u t h o u t]
Post: #1
Poor, Poor Sarah [t r u t h o u t]
Wednesday 12 January 2011
by: William Rivers Pitt, t r u t h o u t | Op-Ed Poor, Poor Sarah So let me get this straight. Twenty people were gunned down at a supermarket in Arizona on Saturday. Six were killed, including a nine-year-old girl. Fourteen others were wounded, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was the main target of the attack, and who was shot through the head. She is currently lying in a hospital bed with half of her skull removed because brain swelling from her bullet wound could kill her. Twenty people shot. Six killed. Fourteen wounded. And guess what? It appears Sarah Palin is the principal victim of the shooting. No, really. Don't believe me? Watch the video she posted to her Facebook page. There she sits, in front of a fireplace and beside an American flag like some cruel joke on Franklin Delano Roosevelt, wreathing herself in pity because people are coming to the conclusion that politicians like her - the ones who have spent the last two years talking about guns and civil war and reloading and such - should bear some of the blame for what happened in Arizona. How on Earth could anyone come to such an irresponsible and reprehensible conclusion? .... http://www.truth-out.org/poor-poor-sarah66781 ________________________________________________ Poor Sarah, the victim. (oh, and read the rest of the article - it's well worth it.) Confirmed, Fox "news" makes you stupid The ones you are noticing are more terrified than anything else. They are lashing out because they are comfortable; and to acknowledge what is happening is a threat to that comfort. Ignore them, for they are not the voices that will rise in the coming days, months and years. They are not the voices of our collected humanity. They are the old voices of fear and impotence. - Anonymous |

Vt Lottery announces million-dollar winner
BERLIN The Vermont Lottery has identified the $1 million winner who purchased the lucky Mega Millions ticket in Berlin.
Irving Lawrence Jr., of Berlin, bought the ticket at the Maplewood Convenience Store. The ticket was worth $250,000, but since Lawrence bought the $1 Megaplier, the total winnings quadrupled.
In a news release Tuesday from the Vermont Lottery, Lawrence said his 10-year-old grandson had recently opened a fortune cookie that said the familys financial situation was going to change.
The lottery said the Lawrence family did not have any immediate plans for the money but were planning a trip or two as well as some home improvements and investments.
The Maplewood Convenience Store will receive $1,000 for selling the winning ticket. Lottery agents receive a 1 percent bonus for selling tickets worth at least $500.MORE IN This Just InBARRE — One of the bigger rap groups in the country will be playing in Barre on Saturday.

5 Tools That Help Measure Your Social Media Influence
Do you know if you're having an impact on Twitter, Facebook and other social media networks? Do you want some tips on how to measure your social media influence?
As Twitter continues to grow, tools to enhance your Twitter experience and measure your influence are popping up all over the web. In this article, I'll highlight five free tools that offer easy ways to keep track of your influence on Twitter and beyond.
#1: Klout
Perhaps one of the more well-known resources for measuring your Twitter influence is Klout, which is available as an extension for Chrome and Firefox, as well as the stand-alone site. Late last year, Twitter client Seesmic also integrated Klout scores into its desktop and web versions.
12 Social Media Tools Recommended by the Pros
Are you struggling to make social media work for your business? Sometimes a few well-chosen tools are all you need to get your social media marketing working for you.
In our recent Social Media Success Summit, there were presentations that covered all the key topics you need to make your social media marketing easy. In this article, I'll share 12 of those tools that were recommended by the pros.
Tools to Refine Your Visibility and Engagement
Here are three tools recommended by Mari Smith during her first presentation on increasing your visibility and engagement on Facebook.
Top 5 Twitter Tools for Social Media Community Managers
Do you manage a social media community? Are you looking for an easier way to manage what happens on Twitter?
Here are five tools to help make your Twitter workflow more efficient, along with some simple instructions on how to use them.
#1: Schedule your tweets more efficiently
Not everyone agrees that scheduling tweets is the best approach. Twitter is, after all, a platform based on real-time interaction. However, offering tweets of relevant industry news content for your community is a way to brand yourself as a resource or thought leader and give people an incentive to follow you. Scheduling tweets of this curated content frees you up to answer questions from your community and monitor search terms.
How to Build Your Twitter Tribe
Do you want to build a loyal and engaged Twitter following (a tribe if you will)?
If so, this article is for you. It will show you how to find people and what to do to engage them.
Find the right people—build the right community
This is a tricky headline. As if there's something like the "right" community waiting for you out there. Yet focusing firmly on the people you want to interact with will pay off greatly. Following those who show a real connection to your niche is key to getting the return out of your Twitter conversations.
A fundamental question when creating your own tribe is to ask yourself, "Whom can I help on Twitter?"
5 New Twitter Tools Worth Exploring
Are you looking for new apps to enhance your Twitter experience? Twitter has turned into a major real-time news source and is no longer a procrastination tool.
In order for us to filter and manage the ever-dynamic Twitter, a number of new apps have emerged.
This article will cover five new tools to help make it easier for you to reach your social media goals and help you keep up with the "latest" on Twitter.
24 Impressive Blog Plugins You Should Consider
One of the great things about blogging is how easy it is to set up a blog on any of the multitude of blogging platforms. While there are many options for building your blog, one of the most popular platforms is WordPress.org.
However, what you get when you set up a WordPress blog can be pretty basic depending on the theme you choose. To make your new blog sing and work for you, it's a good idea to install some key plugins.
How to Use Twitter Events to Grow Your Network
Twitter is a great platform and it truly rocks for person-to-person networking. But what if you want to grow your network or find more people to connect with offline? This is where Twitter events can be very useful.
Twitter events allow you to network at specific times with larger groups of people through the use of hashtags.
Twitter events can help you find people to build your own Twitter network. And as you participate in these events, you will increase your Twitter authority on the topics you discuss. You can even create your own Twitter events to drive your networking and social media marketing.

A proper introduction
I've been writing about Pinterest and it's pros and cons before, and today I realized once again that using Pinterest sometimes is a funny thing. I received an email with some beautiful images from Swedish designers Marit Lissdaniels & Angelica Utterberg of Little Studio, and when I looked at the images I noticed that these were images that I had already seen all over Pinterest and in fact had been pinning to my inspiration boards myself, without really knowing who was behind those beautiful products and photography. Well, I know now: it's Little studio, and I thought it would be a nice thing to properly introduce them here today!
Little studio designs and sells a variety of products, with a focus on colorful prints, but you can also find pillowcases, trays and cutting boards in their online shop. So let's visit that lovely shop first and then pin their gorgeous product images later!

There is an option for POLCAL to store these mean variance values in the VARIANCE components of the input images (see parameter SETVAR). If this option is selected, the VARIANCE array in each input image is filled with a constant value equal to the mean variance in the image estimated on the final iteration.
So you may want to run POLCAL twice; the first time just to estimate the
mean noise level in each input image, and the second time to use these
mean noise levels to calculate the Stokes vectors. The first time you set
parameter WEIGHTS to 3 and SETVAR to TRUE, causing the input variances to
be estimated and stored in the input images. You then re-run POLCAL
setting parameter WEIGHTS to 1 in order to use these variances. This
would then produce Stokes vectors in which the better input images have
higher weight.

Take the college student survey to share your opinions about your school and be entered into a $1,000 scholarship!
Reload the page and try again.
F A+F Health & Safety: The first month of school, there were huge trashcans placed right outside some of our rooms in Traer. These trashcans were overflowing with filth and attracted a very large amount of insects, including wasps and bees. Some of them even got into our room. It took several weeks of complaining before these trashcans were moved, but they are still in the courtyard of the dorms, and rarely emptied. The rooms are cleaned once a month, and it isn't uncommon to experience a number of odd smells throughout the dorm. In terms of safety, let's just say I never leave my door unlocked. The light outside my room was burnt out when I first moved in, and I am in a dark corner at the end of the hall. Kids have thrown beer bottles at each other, and recently, someone was taken to the hospital for alcohol poisoning. There is frequent shouting outside my room in the very early hours of the morning, and I never have any idea what the hell is going on. In short, my dorm is a garbage pit, and I rarely feel safe.
B+ A+F Health & Safety: We are a gated school located in a safe neighborhood. During the day the gate is left open and you can have visitors over. However, the gate closes at 9:30 and after that you have to show ID to get onto campus. Security isn't overly strict, but when you become a student here, you are highly encouraged to add campus security's number to your phone should you ever need it.
B+ A+F Health & Safety: I have always felt quite safe on Oglethorpe's campus. However, the health care is less than adequate. We used to have a nurse on campus, but the school outsourced its health care to a local urgent care clinic. For students who don't have cars or can't drive, it is a very unfortunate situation.
A A+F Health & Safety: Health and Security – They try their best to keep students safe and healthy
B+ A+F Health & Safety: Oglethorpe is pretty safe, with very little crime. We are in a pretty safe neighborhood and people are very decent to each other because the campus is so small, chances are if you steal from someone your going to see them again. Our campus security is understaffed, but they are nice enough and helpful for the most part. They jumpstarted my car when my battery died, so that was nice of them :D We are a gated campus, which closes up after 10pm, so I like that alot. Not alot of cameras anywhere though.
{{review.LetterGrade}} {{review.SectionName}} at {{review.SchoolName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Written by Marisa Manuel
Oglethorpe generally feels safe, which is especially unique because it's in a big city. Patrol officers are always present on campus, and the campus itself is surrounded by a gate. The efficiency of both could be improved, but they still provide students with a feeling of security. In any case, besides a few works of thievery, there really isn't much crime on Oglethorpe's campus. Violent crimes are unheard of, and students can walk around without fear, even at night.
As for health concerns, there is a nurse available on weekdays. Her hours aren't always the most convenient, but she's very helpful, and there is also a doctor who comes in once a week. There often are sample giveaways of useful objects, from tampons to pamphlets dealing with diseases. A student can arrange for his/her prescriptions to be sent to a nearby pharmacy, and can see the nurse when ill in order to get an excuse from going to class.

Not sure if you should wear that Tommy Bahama shirt out tonight? The magnificent bastard is here to help. Go ahead. Ask away.

Q: Any idea what kind of sunglasses Tom Petty's wearing in this picture? I really like their simplicity.—Steve A: We're not sure of Petty's exact make or model, but you can approximate this look with the Allyn Scura Legend — an MB favorite — with brown lenses. These are also favored by Bradley Cooper in the A-Team, and also when he's off camera. Meanwhile, you didn't ask, but we couldn't help but notice Petty's scarf has a message for our readers. It's saying, "Don't do me like that!" We know this is a signature look for Petty, but if you ask us, what it says is, 'I've been waiting for the Sundance Catalog to add an ascot page for years, but still no luck. I'll guess I'll use this scarf. And, uh, how do you tie an ascot again? Well, this is sort of close, right?" Next week, we're posting a scarf-tying guide that will feature 7 ways to tie one. The Petty won't be on the list.
When it's a little chilly on the first tee, we recommend a white cotton turtleneck. When it's downright cold, a cashmere version like this flannel grey Harrison* (on deep discount) should do the trick. When it's snowing, as it was at the Accenture Match Play Championship in Tucson this weekend, we suggest you book a flight to somewhere where it's not snowing and play there. (There are plenty of nice courses in Maui, where it shouldn't start snowing until at least 2013.) Whatever you do, though, never wear what Martin Kaymer, the world's newly crowned top-ranked player, was wearing this weekend. On Sunday's broadcast, we learned the hideous scarf-like accessory assaulting his neck is a UV Fishing Buff by artist and retired Florida Keys fishing guide Vaughn Cochran. The UV Fishing Buff is made from Coolmax Extreme fabric and features a black fly fishing lure pattern that we're pretty sure is guaranteed to actually repel oysters and mollusks, not to mention creatures with actual eyes. The only time to wear such a thing is if you're skippering the S.S. Toolbag. Never ever wear one a golf course. * Harrison's quality is as variable as Bubba Watson's golf swing. Some of their sweaters are our favorites; others barely make the Vietnam Veterans clothing donation bin. Inspect carefully before committing.
Q: This is a question for Spectacular Bitch, but since she's making us wait, like, forever ... I'd like your opinion on what to wear to Lambeau on Thursday night. I'll be in a suite with business partners so a cheese bra is out of the question. Please advise.--Kelly A: In lieu of the cheese bra (save that for November 7th against Dallas, when we'll be there) here's an effortless, SB-appropriate outfit for a cool August night: * TOP: Splendid Whisper Draped Top. With come-hither look. $55 via shopbop.com. * BOTTOM: Your favorite pair of designer denim. We like AG if you've got it, Hudson if it's going a little south. * FOOTWEAR: Sandals, with toes in buff or nude. * WINNING SB ACCESSORY: Super long and slimming and green Chan Luu crinkle fringe scarf. $95 via saksfifthavenue.com. Go, Pack, Go!
Fail! This guy is clearly cracking under the pressure. Paired with the right summer blazer that scarf could be magnificent, but accompanying only a polo it's wrong, and this guy's sheepish grin shows he knows it.
I wanted to update you on my efforts to knit the perfect scarf. You were kind enough to obtain the dimensions of the SOH Cashmere Scarf so that I could knit it for my dear son. I found the ideal cashmere yarn and have just finished the last stitch of scarf. My son will be celebrating his 25th birthday on Saturday and this will be a truly fitting gift to commemorate his quarter-century mark.With sincere thanks, Bonnie A: That truly warms our hearts, Bonnie. Now, if you enter our MB Cocktail Contest and submit an entry that your son will be proud to order in any bar in America, you will truly be en route to winning Mom of the Year!
Q: My son desperately wants the SOH Cable Hand-Knit scarf, which I absolutely cannot afford. I can, however, knit extremely well. Is there any chance you might know the dimensions of the SOH Cable Hand-Knit Scarf? My son may not be a bastard, but he is absolutely magnificent, and he would be even more magnificent wearing that scarf.--Bonnie A: Bonnie, a note of caution: Extravagantly doting on your son is one of the surest ways to turn him into a toolbag. But at least you're not just handing him your Bergdorf Goodman card and telling him to shop until until he gets hungry for a sandwich, which you will lovingly prepare. The SOH scarf is 72" x 12". Good luck and please use only the finest Mongolian cashmere.
At least once in a man's life, he should buy a scarf that costs more than the most expensive suit at Men's Warehouse. We recommend the new 70 cashmere/ 30 superfine merino wool cable hand-knit scarf from new designer Song Oh. It takes more than a week to knit each piece. A Men's Warehouse suit takes like 18 minutes to assemble, tops. This beauty is available exclusively at Pamela Robbins in Scarsdale, NY. And we also have a handy guide on how to achieve the "lofty wrap" look.
Yes, we've got Bravo on full-time in the MB office, partially because it's The Toolbag Channel. The examples of what not to do are irresistable. Like Slade from Date My Ex. Shiny gold watch, shiny gold ring, and that scarf epitomizes TTH (Trying Too Hard). MBs can safely avoid all three things (and the hand gesturing, too).
