Academic Rigor The course load is very attentive and sometimes rigorous but well maintainable with step by step processes conducted by the teachers and staff. Upon graduation, you are well prepared and sometimes more so than sophomores within four year school programs.

In three sentences Maria College is a great start towards educational and career goals. The ability to be a part of a small campus with a smaller teacher to student ratio proved to be fundamental for ones academic growth. Both teachers and staff are available for the optimum academic levels of achievement with as much work and effort that you put forth.

In the last two weeks, both the New York Times and Arizona Republic have carried stories that make me squinch my eyes and cringe. Both articles are tips for dealing wit the economy.
The Arizona Republic ran an article on how to save money during these tough times. OK. So far, so good. But the suggestions were laughable for all but the amazingly wealthy. Arizona, at the moment, is the 5th poorest state in the union. Here are some of the suggestions—cut your housecleaning crew down to once every other week. Have your gardener come just once a month. Go out to lunch instead of the evening meal. Consider buying your own nail polish, as it saves a bit on those regular manicures and pedicures.
I'm baffled by this. If you can afford a housecleaner, gardener, eating out at all and regular manicures and pedicures, you don't have a worry in the world.
Let's get down to the reality portion of this economy: drug and rehab budgets are being cut, so is health care for children, food prices are not coming down, and gas prices are inching up again. Once a month in our town, we have big trash pickup. People haul those bulky items that don't fit in the standard trash can to the curb, and a special truck and frontloader scoop them away. For the last two months, I've watched pickup trucks cruising through neighborhoods scavenging those piles of trash.
By the time the frontloader shows up, the piles are reduced to yard trimmings. Even those are picked over for left-over citrus fruit. Anything metal or repairable has been loaded into trucks. I don't think these people are worried about their housecleaning schedule.
This past Sunday, the New York Times ran an article on how the economy provides a handy excuse for laying off that pesky maid who dared to ask for New Year's Eve off. Or to blow off your bourgeois in-laws' invitation to Disney World, presumably because you can't afford it, when in reality you prefer Europe to Florida. The article was written in a surprisingly shallow "let them eat cake" tone.
Where is the editor who should have spiked this story? Where is the managing editor, who, having seen a story written in a similar tone the week before, should be ashamed he let that one get in instead of adding another one to the pile?
This economy is dividing us into the have and have-nots. There is no middle class. There are the working poor and the incredibly rich. The New York Times, a respectable newspaper of honored heritage is behaving in a way that shows a shocking disregard for the people who are trying to live normal lives and navigate their way through a recession without maids or pedicures. The rich will muddle through, let's see some help for the rest of us.

Sky crane touchdown system lowers Mars rover "Curiosity" onto surface, artist rendering provided by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) -- NASA's most ambitious and expensive Mars mission begins this weekend with the arrival of the smartest rover ever built.
Like an Olympic gymnast, the rover must "stick the landing."
It won't be easy. The touchdown for the rover called Curiosity is so risky it's been described as "seven minutes of terror." That's the time it takes to slow down from a blazing 13,000 mph to a complete stop with the help of a parachute, heat shield and rockets.
In a new twist, the rover will be lowered by cables from a hovering spacecraft.
Scientists on Earth won't know for 14 minutes whether Curiosity safely landed Sunday night.
If all goes well, Curiosity will spend two years trying to figure out if the Mars environment was once suitable for microbes.

Ranney fails to get the appointment of HT[41] from Secretary of War because Col Gilbert asks for his appoint[ment] as Steward of the 19th Mich which he has already.

He enlisted in Company E, 11th Michigan Infantry in August 1862.

[39] Bennitt is probably referring to Dovers Powder. It was a well-known diaphoretic compound made up of one grain of opium, one grain of ipecac, and eight grains of milk sugar (lactose). One of its uses was to break up a cold by causing the body to sweat. He indicates that he has taken 5 grains of this powder.[40] George G.

Nuclear power doesn't usually conjure up the most positive images, so its recent rehabilitation has been all the more notable. The Bush administration has called for a greater reliance on nuclear power, which today generates one fifth of U.S. electricity supplies. Not only could splitting the atom satisfy our burgeoning energy needs, advocates say, it could also reduce the risk of global warming from fossil-fuel burning.
Maybe. Certainly new, safer and potentially more economical reactor designs such as those discussed in this issue [see page 72] could help ease the public's apprehension. But planners must resolve some critical concerns before we can say whether nuclear energy is up to the task. Where can we put all that nuclear waste? This has always been the industry's hot potato--perhaps too literally for comfort. The nation's 103 nuclear power plants each generate an average of around 20 tons of radioactive spent fuel a year. Spent fuel now sits in cooling pools and temporary storage areas waiting for somebody to figure out what to do with it. By the end of 2001 the U.S. Department of Energy was to have ruled on the suitability of the only site being considered for a national repository: Yucca Mountain, a desert ridge of volcanic rock located 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas. In the latest plan, 70,000 metric tons of nuclear waste would be stashed in tunnels drilled 300 meters below the mountain's crest and 300 meters above the water table.
Two decades and $7 billion after site studies began, researchers are still not sure that the Yucca complex and its special storage vessels will contain the radiation and possible seepage of contaminated water for the 10,000 years required for the danger to start to subside. Further, vociferous objections of Nevadans emphasizing the potential threat of terrorists to cross-country shipments of radioactive materials now sound all too plausible. As it stands, Yucca could not start accepting used fuel until 2010.
A partial solution--though an expensive one--might be to reprocess the spent fuel for reuse. Britain, France and Japan have followed this route, but the U.S. has long resisted it because the operation produces plutonium, which terrorists and their state sponsors could divert to build bombs. New recycling techniques and breeder-reactor designs may, however, create fuels that would be useless in weapons.
Can nuclear power ever be cost-competitive? Far from providing energy that's "too cheap to meter," nuclear plants have been the most costly power option. The nuclear industry estimates that new plants must be built for less than $1,000 per kilowatt of electrical output to be economically practical. Some existing plants cost three times that amount. Future facilities will require not only more efficient reactors but also lower-cost construction.
Who will run tomorrow's nuclear plants? A 1997 DOE study found just 570 students majoring in nuclear engineering, down two thirds from five years earlier, though that trend may be flattening out. Teaching reactors at universities around the country have been shut down. Even if more nuclear plants are not built, someone is going to have to run the existing ones until they are taken out of service.
It is clear that any prospective nuclear renaissance will require some critical thinking to overcome the roadblocks. Naysayers must confront the all-too-real possibility of reduced energy supplies--and the accompanying decline in living standards--should these efforts fail.

lol. one does not simply "adjust" to include shedinja. think of it like this, i'd have to adjust my entire style, as well as half my team, just to have a voltturn counter, when i don't plan on replacing my main one now. especially a poor one at that. yeah, it walls most scrotom-cores(bar hp fire). but it can't do sh*t to either. please think of results etc before posting.
:/ ok. so i have one taunter. what do i do if my taunter isn't out at the time? exactly.You could easily slap taunt on a pokemon to prevent hazards
lolwut!? have you ever even tried it? now im, like, 80% sure you are trolling, so im not going to respond to your response.Shedinja is easy to use.
that's all it takes. switch half my team(or more than that). yup, its a good idea.Just get rid of damaging weather/hazards and have a magic bouncer. Thats all it takes.
"hashtag" sarcasm.
i dont wanna be a d*ck, but im not changing my entire team just so i can have shedinja. its not particularly helpful either. questions, yes. unreasonable changes, no.
now, can i have the questions/ideas commented on? i'd like some sort of landorus-t set before i start testing, and i'll check smogon later.

Pouring a lead keel is extremely dangerous to both people and the environment. This project should not be undertaken by anyone who is not properly prepared to deal with the many hazards inherent in the process. Nearly 600 pounds of lead must be heated to a molten state and the liquid lead safely conveyed to a properly constructed mold. Dangers include, but are not limited to: inhalation of noxious fumes, explosion caused by moisture coming in contact with heated lead, molten lead spilling or leaking from crucible or containers or mold, accidental burns and/or fire from heat source, etc.
This project is best left to professionals!!!

Well, tonight's episode is going to run two hours, which is going to push my brain and wrists to the absolute limit of thinking and typing. I have enough trouble filling up a 30-minute show recap with fresh material, so you can basically forget about this one. At least the first 1/8th will be good. If I come up with something super funny in the next six words. Waiting... waiting... waiting... waiting... waiting... nope.
It is on in Hollywood. These are the most famous faces in America? I mean, they're nice and all, but what about G. Washington? He's on money! Bills and coins! Anyway, doo doo doo ah ah ha ah ah. That's the theme music. A grinning Seacrest flexes the stage lights and it's very colorful indeed. And here they are, your American Idol finalists, in no discernible order! Besides guy/girl, that is. And here are the judges, sitting in their normal order. Hi, hi and hi.
Tonight's theme is soul. Excuse me, soooouuuuullllllll! Get up! Get on up! Like a lovin' machine! First up is La Toya London, representing Oaktown 357. And drinking tea with her mother. So sweet. Did you know that Latoya used to sing at weddings?. Did you know that Latoya has new hair? Well, she does. And it's spiky. Ish. Are you looking at the size of that backdrop? It's like a mega plasma screen Elvis would buy three of. The song ends, the judges love it to the millionth degree and Latoya feels like a star. Mission accomplished.
Welcome back! Figuratively. Next up is Amy Adams, who hails from Bakersfield. If you don't know, it's in the middle of nothing, California. During Amy's family piece, I look for her sarcastic brother Jack, but he's nowhere to be found. They do have a lot of dogs though. Finally it's time for Amy to sing. Is that a tie holding up her shirt? Two ties? Just around her bare neck? A shirt made out of ties? What's going on here? Amy finishes her song and the judges say it was aiight for a goofball. A little boring, perhaps. In so many words, you know. Then Simon gets booed. I'm not sick of that yet, seriously.
That brings us to Matt Rogers who, you may or may not know, played football once. And was on Family Feud. Survey says...Matt! As we learn in the piece, Matt is a man who isn't afraid to wear a tuxedo vest with nothing underneath. And here's Matt in a bubble bath. I...uh...wow. That's a lotta bubbles over a lotta man. I'm still alive, so I guess seeing something like that won't in fact kill me. Surprising. Anyway, Matt makes full use of the stage during his performance and the audience eats it up. But the judges? A little. Not bad.
We sure are learning a lot about these kids' lives tonight. If they ran a feature on me, it would just be a guy in his shorts on the couch drinking a Coke and eating a block of mozzarella. And it would be the most popular piece of all time! In my house. Fourth up is the quite reserved Camile Velasco. Camile used to work at a restaurant. I could go for a BLT now. How are those two ideas connected? The caps, that's about it. Camile gives a nice performance and then it's over. That's the fact, Jack! The judges were okay with it. Opening night jitters, perhaps? Not for me though.
Now that we're on the live shows, Seacrest is free to roam the crowd, his most comfortable habitat. The time has now come for Jon Peter Lewis, who might be my favorite tri-name since Charles Nelson Reilly. Or perhaps Phillip Seymour Hoffman. JPL works at a nursery. The plant kind, not the baby kind. Stylistically, JPL is going for the ragamuffin look tonight, what with the un-tucked shirt and the wild mane of hair. He gives his performance a little countrified twang and a little of the RJ Helton bounce dance and all are pleased.
Following in those deep footsteps is Fantasia, who seems like a whole lot of fun. Man, can you imagine your mom being a preacher and yelling at you? Make your head spin! And the Lord said...go to your room! Fantasia comes out rocking the pinstripes, which is a look I'm all for. I'm wearing pinstriped socks as we speak. Fantasia lets it all hang out and the audience loves it. The judges? Them too.
TVG! As in George Huff. George is from New Orleans, LA, but points out that down there they say Nawlaw or something. When George comes out to perform, get ready to see the Dip. But don't look for that mustache! It's gone, baby! Dip, shave, dip, shave. George's song is "Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay" in case you couldn't tell from the giant ocean shot behind him. Look at that screen! After finishing his number, George very politely stands there for the judges' critiques, which are all positive. George!
Jennifer Hudson, it's your turn. Her high school has constructed a museum in her honor. My high school has done the same thing. Well, more specifically, they still haven't taken down the science textbook of mine that somebody threw on the school roof in '92. It's still just hanging over the edge. Great throw. Anyway, Jennifer 86ed the pink tonight in favor of Seacrest style clothes. Jennifer blows it out and the judges eat it up, except for Simon, who dislikes all the effort tonight. Or extra effort at least. So don't try as much, kids!
Seacrest, hanging out in the control nest now, starts fiddling with the lights. Fresh! But that's not important because now we're about to get a dose of John Stevens, wearing his best Sunday suit. Hey, look! Skinny ties are back! A couple more months and I can break out my bolo. I absolutely blew John's mind across the room during our little sit down. It was two weeks ago, hopefully enough time for John to recover and get the confused look off his face. Like he's never seen an incredibly human-like ventriloquist's dummy before. John starts off his ballad sitting on a stool. Randy was bored to tears. But Paula and Simon liked it, so cheers to that!
Leah LaBelle's parents used to be in a musical troupe, The Flying Treble Notes. Dig those jackets! Leah has straightened her hair tonight and it is a good, good thing. She finishes her intergalactic planetary performance and people clap. Not the judges though. Well, I mean, they clapped. But they didn't mean it. Simon takes it a step further and tells her to hit the bricks. Oof.
More island rhythms now, this time for Jasmine. Jasmine's entire family tries to take credit for her talent, which is incredibly adorable. Man, I'm losing steam. I need a...a... something good. Maybe I need a flower in my hair because Jasmine seemingly has tons of steam. Listen to that little girl go. Aloha! The judges liked...so...so tired. Help me.
Help me by rocking, Diana DeGarmo! Let your curly locks go wild! Diana is from Snellville, which sounds like a place where comic book characters live. Diana goes to Shiloh High, where the school Civil War re-enactment team has won three state titles, the last coming over their hated rivals, Bull's Gap Senior and Junior High School. On another note, Diana does help me by rocking. Lots of energy, lots of lights on the stage, lots of praise from the judges.
So that's about it. Actually, that's entirely it. Jaded! Out! What is that, anyway? Besides the obvious, I mean.

Mantarys is a city-state located north-east of the Free City of Volantis and north-west of Slaver's Bay, due north of fallen Valyria. It is located at the north-eastern tip of the Sea of Sighs.
Mantarys is the only overland waystop of any note for travellers and merchants taking the land route from the Free Cities to Slaver's Bay.
In the books
In A Song of Ice and Fire, Mantarys used to be a city of the Valyrian Freehold. Although it survived the Doom of Valyria, it has since gained a foul reputation as a city of "monsters". The road from Volantis to Slaver's Bay is called the "demon road" and is shunned by most travelers, who prefer to take the sea route south around the Valyrian Peninsula. It is not considered to be one of the Free Cities, likely due to its isolated nature and unpleasant reputation.
Mantarys is the principal surviving city of the Lands of the Long Summer, an area lying immediately north of the Valyrian Peninsula which used to be one of the heartlands of the empire.

Thanksgiving travel should increase slightly
NEW YORK (AP) — Slightly more Americans will hit the road this Thanksgiving, according to AAA. That includes people who are choosing to drive instead of fly as household budgets remain tight.
In its annual Thanksgiving travel forecast released Tuesday, AAA predicts 43.6 million Americans will travel at least 50 miles from home over the holiday, up just 0.7 percent from last year.
But while more people are traveling, it appears that the pent-up demand seen following the recession has largely dissipated. Demand grew a healthy 8 percent and 6 percent, respectively, in the two previous Thanksgiving holiday periods even though economic growth was moderate. Now, AAA says it will take a stronger economy to spur a significant jump in travel demand going forward.

Obama and Kanye: 'Jack**s'
Barack Obama thinks Kanye West in a "talented jackass".
The American President - who previously took aim at the 'Gold Digger' rapper for interrupting Taylor Swift's acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009 - admits that while he might not like his behaviour, he can't deny his ability.
In an interview with The Atlantic magazine, he said: "I like Kanye. He's a Chicago guy. Smart. He's very talented. "He is a jackass, but he's talented." Kanye - who is rumoured to be dating reality star Kim Kardashian - later apologised to Taylor, 22, for his outburst using social networking site twitter.
He wrote: "I'm sorry, Taylor. We're both artists, and the media and managers are trying to get between us. She deserves the apology more than anyone.

Five Ways to Eat Leeks
All the hubbub about Wikileaks has me thinking about another kind of dish from an underground source…leeks!
When my father-in-law sent us home from Thanksgiving with a bag full of fresh leeks from his garden, I thanked him (diplomatically, of course), but was secretly befuddled. Having seen leeks only in restaurant dishes, I'd assumed they were something smaller, closer to scallions. These were white cylinders nearly as wide as soda cans, lopped off at the top as they grew greener.
After a bit of online research, I learned that late-harvested leeks like the ones I got are bigger than spring ones, with a stronger flavor that's still milder than most onions. These bulbous vegetables have been called "the poor man's asparagus" in France, but in Wales, people wear leeks (yes, wear them!) as a treasured national symbol. Ancient Egyptians and Romans apparently loved leeks, too.
Leeks can be cooked in many different ways. A few suggestions:
1) Potato-leek soup. A classic, easy-to-prepare winter comfort food. I made mine without a recipe, first sauteeing some chopped leeks and butter in a saucepan for about 10 minutes, then adding chopped potatoes and broth to simmer for about 20 minutes (until soft), and pureeing it with an immersion blender. I added some plain yogurt, creme fraiche and rosemary for a richer taste and texture, and crumbled a bit of blue cheese on top before serving. Yum. For a more precise recipe, see Pinch My Salt. Simply Recipes also has a creamless version with a kick, and NPR's The Splendid Table offers several variations on Julia Child's classic leek and potato soup recipe.
2) Risotto. I'm a little addicted to making risotto, as my husband, Charles, can attest. Cold weather only makes me crave it more. But at least my repertoire is expanding! This caramelized leek risotto from Daily Unadventures in Cooking is phenomenal. Cauliflower or butternut squash would be tasty additions, and if Charles didn't hate mushrooms, I'd also be trying The Kitchn's mushroom and leek risotto. (That blog also has a helpful explanation of how to clean leeks.)
3) Latkes. Add another one to Jess's list of not-so-orthodox latkes! One of my favorite blogs, Food & Style, recently featured an enticing butternut squash and leek latke recipe, although carnivores may prefer these leek and beef latkes. Along the same lines, WGBH's The Daily Dish has a recipe for shredded potato cakes with leeks and cheese.
4) Mac & Cheese. Just when I thought homemade macaroni and cheese couldn't get any better…it did. Try this recipe from Food & Wine, which the Capital Spice bloggers can testify to.
5) Bread Pudding. Smitten Kitchen wins the prize for most creative use of leeks with this Leek Bread Pudding recipe adapted from the Ad Hoc cookbook. Doesn't that look great?
Also, a recipe to keep in mind for spring—Martha Rose Shulman's grilled leeks with romesco sauce make me dream of warmer weather.

really lovely post- i adore leeks and i love them most in a soup- with potatoes. but your ideas are great, too. happy hols to you and yours. x shayma
Fantastic post. The only thing I ver make is soup so this is really inspiring!
Leeks are delicious in a quick pasta dish. I fry the leeks in some oil, add some cream and let it heat up to boiling point. Then I mix the sauce with cooked pasta, smoked salmon, lots of black pepper and some fresh, diced tomatoes. Simple and delicious!
We always had potato leek soup on Christmas Eve. That was the only time of the year we ever had leeks until we lived in Scotland. They are eaten there year round! A friend recommended wrapping the leeks in bacon and pouring over a bechamel cheese sauce before baking (YUM!); I also made a leek "crumble" several times which was fantastic (leek/cream base with a butter/oat/flour topping). I like to make my potato leek soup with a bit of white wine added.

-- legal case unfolding in North Dakota Rodney -- -- -- is the first American citizen known to be busted with the help of a predator surveillance drone.
Now -- big debate is brewing in the small town of Lakota raising privacy concerns over the use of unmanned drones by law enforcement.
Joining us live to talk about at least -- former federal prosecutor Fox News legal analyst Joseph di Benedetto is a criminal defense attorney joins us as well.
That the back story is that -- I got to explain this.
-- wander onto -- -- sorts property.
And he decides he's gonna keep the neighbor's house which he can't.
-- the cops show up to -- can't do that.
He allegedly grabs a high powered rifle and chases the police off his property.
Here's what the attorney representing North Dakota says quote.
The alleged crimes were already committed long before a drone was even thought of being used it was only used to help -- There weren't weapons into may he rest safer for both.
Debris starts and law enforcement.
And you know -- -- they had a warrant.
Right they did have a -- but I would I really worry about -- slow appear in other words you can get in a warrant for -- You knew that we get there they are crimes argument is so called crimes McAlester OK and you get a warrant for that.
Where -- we end without -- hello hunter house at least we can you know Xena alleged lying homeless terrorizing police with a high powered by -- -- you need a drone for that -- just going with the old fashioned.
I've rest warrant that's it it's over and don't bring -- -- What is and it's safer Joseph if you know where on this huge property Broussard is and you can see whether or not he's got some weapons.
Greg I will agree with you on the these particular facts and circumstances.
The use of the drone is not so egregious.
But -- lease brings up is if they're bringing in a drone for six counts can you imagine what the federal government would do if they believe that you were Tony Montana or Pablo Escobar.
I mean -- every every citizen of of the United States has a reasonable expectation of privacy in their home.
The use of this -- is no different than the FBI storming your house and searching every single -- the fact that they're flying up above.
Makes no difference -- what about -- 1989.
US Supreme Court decision and in fact we'll put it up -- to screen.
Supreme Court said any member of the public could legally -- been flying over Riley's property is is it different Casey was grown marijuana.
In a helicopter at the altitude of 400 feet and could have observed -- greenhouse the police officer did more and Lisa Supreme Court -- you know what.
You didn't even need a warrant used a helicopter -- is a surveillance drone any different -- And other Supreme Court case and said you have to have that you have to have a warrant to go win member of the is cases -- talked about if you hit -- heat seeking device you've got to have a warrant.
Anything like that coming from your house you have have a warrant.
Maybe not so different may be here of the drones were OK because they did have a warrant and they knew the guy they wanted to get in custody it was -- huge property.

When She Arrives
How can creativity and a sense of commandedness be combined when confronting new ritual needs?
This article, conceived in response to the author's need to create with his wife a simchat bat [girl's welcoming ritual] for their daughter, provides a thoughtful and provocative examination of how faithful Jews might generally approach the development of new rituals with equal measures of surrender and creativity. An earlier version of this article was written shortly after the birth of the author's first child in 1997, and originally appeared in Orthodox Jewish Women and Ritual: Birth, a publication of the Jewish Orthodox Feminist Alliance. Reprinted with permission.
Performance of mitzvot, the obligations imposed by tradition, demands that we surrender some measure of autonomy, and this is especially true of the performance of rituals. We perform a ritual because we have received a particular tradition, because someone else says we should, because it has always been done this way.
This is a simplification, to be sure, because we often (and perhaps always) put our own stamp on the tradition, investing it with particular kinds of significance in the light of our own experience and our own historical moment. Nevertheless, in general, we experience ritual ready-made. Ritual is already present, as it were, waiting patiently for us to arrive.
Obligation vs. Spontaneity
R. Hanina taught: "the one who acts in the fulfillment of an obligation is greater than the one who acts spontaneously" (Kiddushin 31a). At first glance, this is counter-intuitive. Shouldn't we esteem the person acting spontaneously, free of any obligation, more than the person who only acts because she feels compelled to do so?� Isn't the former person demonstrating free will, an "open heart," while the latter merely complies with some kind of coercion?�
No. R. Haninah's spiritual insight recognizes that actions that one does not feel obligated to perform may be spontaneous, but they are also, for that very reason, arbitrary, lacking in commitment and purpose. If I genuinely feel no obligation to give tzedakah or to return a lost object--if I feel no compulsion whatsoever--then I might as well flip a coin. The very heteronomy of an obligation contributes to its meaning; the feeling that we are commanded or in some sense compelled to carry it out provides it with a purpose. And nowhere is this more apparent than in lifecycle rituals, those traditions that wait for us to arrive so that we may mark and sanctify particular moments of transition.
But what if we arrive at such a moment, like the birth of a baby girl, and do not find any ritual waiting for us? In light of the centrality of mitzvah, of that which is commanded, some may argue that the very absence is conclusive, because the idea of creating a ritual is a self-contradiction. How can anyone ever consciously invent a ritual and somehow endow it with meaning, meaning which can only come from the tradition?�

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV)- A strong line of thunderstorms gave the Charlotte region a record amount of rainfall Tuesday.
WBTV Meteorologist Al Conklin says the city saw 2.41 inches fall at Charlotte Douglas International Airport.
The storms moved in mainly in the evening producing heavy downpours across the region. Already a quarter of an inch has fallen since midnight, Conklin said.
Storms are a threat again Wednesday, bringing more lightning, heavy downpours and the possibility for localized flooding.
The National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg issued a Flood Advisory until 3 p.m. Wednesday for Burke, Caldwell and Alexander Counties.
Conklin says they high will be in the mid to upper 70s day before dropping into the lower 50s overnight into Thursday morning.
But once the rain moves out late Wednesday night, the rest of the week and the weekend look to be filled with sunshine and temperatures in the mid to upper 70s.

I hate when I have to be the referee because it usually never ends on a happy note. One boy usually end up hurt..... angry that their brother got the best of them. Ugh--- what happened to the good ol' days when boys just played marbles? ;)
Jonny makes this deep growl-like purr that can be very loud. He taught Dennis to copy him. Now I go insane twice as fast!
Andrew and Jonny will wrestle all day if I let them, but I often direct them to go and play something else unless they both just want to go to their room and takes naps instead.
Then they get goofy on me!

3) He is a factual numbers guy, who doesn't rely at all on spin media, but real data and truth; and believes in Austrian economics.
4) Ryan is the only Congressman to try to do something about the huge fiscal nightmere we face from deficit spending and is admired by both Republicans and Democrats for his intelligence and cahounas.
Democrats bombarded him with ads attacking his ideas to get the long-term deficits under control, using the grandma over the cliff ad; which was an effective ad with completely false information.
The Social Security and Medicare systems were made when people didn't live as long and not nearly as many people collected benefits. Today, these programs are way underfunded. The amount contributed to these funds cannot in anyway payout to all people in the future as is. Ryan's plan allows those at about or at retirement already to retain 100% of their benefits; while those people 55 - 62 now, would receive 50%. The rest of us would start over. It was meant to get discussion started on a system that is going to completely implode without drastic change; then nobody will get benefits.
5) Ryan specifically supports Americans' Constitutional rights.
6) Ryan is from Wisconsin, a state that has been nearly all Democrat forever. He has served for seven years and is popular.
You describe a man unknown to Wisconsinites. He is elitist and very arrogant.

Game Notes:
Mike McCarthy Pregame Show on 620 WTMJ:
Big Win: The best part is we were able to play a complete sixty minutes and excelled in all three phases of the game. Easily our best performance of the year.
Moving forward: Consistency is a big part of our business. We've been able to do that in the past. it's time for this 2012 team to do the same.
B Jones / Hayward: They both have practiced hard and are ready to go. Jones is extremely consistent and dependable and he has had a great week of practice. Casey keeps getting better with each opportunity. the game will dictate what we do but I look for both of these guys to play an important role.

Hey, Jewish filmmakers! If you've done everything you can to try to get to Park City this week for the Sundance Festival, or its increasingly popular avant-garde cousin, the Slamdance Festival, but haven't made the cut, next year try the SchmoozeDance Festival. Created five years ago by film aficionado Larry Mark, a 44-year-old living on the Upper West Side in Manhattan, SchmoozeDance might not be the biggest Jewish film fest in the world, but it is the only one that takes place next to the most prestigious festival in the world.

The Syracuse Orange absolutely refused to quit on Saturday night.
Undaunted by a 23-3 halftime deficit, the Orange stormed back against South Florida in Tampa to beat the Bulls 37-36.
Syracuse scored 21 quick points after trailing by 20 at halftime to take a one point lead at 24-23 in the 3rd quarter.
South Florida would rally to recapture a 9 point lead at 33-24 before Syracuse would rally once again.
Down 36-31 with less than two minutes to play, Ryan Nassib drove the Orange down the field and connected with Alec Lemon for a one yard touchdown pass with three seconds to play to win the game 37-36.
The win improves SU's record to 4-4 overall, and 3-1 in Big East play.

The Carolina RailHawks 2011 season is half over. Fourteen games are in the books, and fourteen more are to come before the end of the regular season. They kick off the second half of the season on Saturday at Minnesota at 8:30 p.m. EST.
But before the second half begins, let's take a look back at the 10 most memorable moments, storylines and trends of the first half of the RailHawks' season.
10. The season opener
In a rematch of last season's championship finals, the RailHawks opened the 2011 season against Puerto Rico at WakeMed Soccer Park on April 9. Ten minutes into the match, play was suspended due to severe weather. Nearly two hours later, play resumed.
Trailing 1-0 late, Martin Rennie looked down the bench and called on Etienne Barbara, who'd stepped off a plane from Malta less than 24 hours earlier and hadn't slept a wink since his return to the U.S.
Barbara entered with 11 minutes to play, then converted a penalty kick he drew in the 86th minute, seemingly rescuing a point for the RailHawks, who'd also been playing a man down for more than a half hour.
But seconds from full-time, Puerto Rico's Jay Needham headed in a corner kick to steal 3 points for the visitors.
9. Etienne the Barbarian
Little did we know then that Barbara's penalty kick was the start of the greatest scoring binge ever provided by a Maltese striker.
Barbara went on to score goals in eight consecutive games and record points in 10 straight.
With less than a third of the season completed, Barbara had already established new single-season club records for goals, points, consecutive games with a goal, consecutive games with a point, and he's also taken over the career club records for goals and points, and he's tied for the all-time assists lead.
Through 14 games, Barbara has played a role in 64 percent of the RailHawks' offensive output. He has 14 goals and 7 assists, while the team has tallied a total of 33 goals.
Barbara was the NASL Player of the Month in April and May, and four times he's been selected as the NASL Offensive Player of the Week.
8. Streaks
Another thing we had no way of knowing back on April 9 was that would be the only loss of the first half of the season.
The RailHawks are undefeated in their 13 matches since (12-1-0), a club record, and they have won 10 straight, obliterating the previous club record of three consecutive wins.
They've also won five straight road matches, another club record, and seven straight at home, one shy of the club record.
7. Comeback wins
The RailHawks record for four years was nothing short of dreadful in games in which they conceded the first goal.
This season, it has been remarkable. The RailHawks have conceded the first goal five times this season. They have come back to tie the match on all five occasions, and they have gone on to win the last four.
Not only have they come back to win, they've done so convincingly. Down 1-0 to Montreal, they went on to win 2-1. Down 1-0 to Ft. Lauderdale, they went on to win 4-2. Down 1-0 to Tampa Bay, they went on to win 3-1. Down 1-0 to Atlanta, they went on to win 5-1.
Furthermore, when they get down, they don't stay down for long. They've trailed for a total of 103 minutes this season -- out of 1,260 played.
6. Watson's wunderstrike
Trailing Tampa Bay 1-0 on June 18, Matt Watson scored one of the best goals in club history.
Near the top of the area, Watson executed a give-and-go with Etienne Barbara. When he got the ball back, he took a couple of touches and unleashed a 25-yard blast with the outside of his right foot that dipped and swerved back toward the near post, leaving Tampa Bay goalkeeper Jeff Attinella defenseless.
Simply masterful.
5. Zimmerman's thunderbolt
Watson's claim to goal of the season lasted all of one week.
On June 25 in Atlanta, Nick Zimmerman received a pass from Floyd Franks on the right flank. He turned and saw nothing but space. He took a few touches, set the ball up on his left foot and then hammered a shot to the far post.
A phenomenal strike.
4. Cory Miller comes and goes
In the 88th minute of the second leg of the 2010 championship finals, defender Brad Rusin was sent off against Puerto Rico.
Six months later, he served the one-match suspension in the RailHawks' season opener against Puerto Rico.
With Rusin unavailable, Rennie turned to rookie Cory Miller to fill in.
The 6-foot-4 defender played 68 minutes, nearly scored a goal and more than held his own in his first match as a professional.
Less than 12 hours after the final whistle, Miller was on a plane back to Olivet Nazarene University in Bourbonnais, Ill., where he was finishing up his college degree. Thirty-six hours later, he was back in class.
"Martin called me [that week] unexpectedly," Miller said at the time. "I was sitting there at class. He asked, 'What's your schedule like? Could you come down and play'? I told him I'd open things up to do that. You don't turn down something like that. He didn't say I was going to play or anything and I wasn't expecting to play. I was there in case. Once I knew I was starting, I was in shock."
Miller has finished school and now is with the team full time. He got his second start of the season on June 10, and he played 90 minutes in the RailHawks' 1-0 win at Edmonton.
3. Top of the table
Of 42 available points, the RailHawks have grabbed 37 of them and built in impressive 13-point lead in the table.
Just to get an idea of how substantial the lead is, consider that in order to relinquish first place, the RailHawks would have to lose their next five games in a row, while Edmonton would have to win their next five.
If that were to happen, the RailHawks wouldn't fall out of first place until July 30, and even then they'd only be two points off the top.
The RailHawks can put more distance between themselves and Edmonton with two head-to-head matches this month. They'll meet on July 13 in Edmonton and July 23 at WakeMed Soccer Park.
2. Road to victory
Win at home, tie on the road is generally a good recipe for soccer success.
But the RailHawks are tilting that theory on its head this season. They're winning at home and on the road. Their 7-0-1 at home and they've outscored their opponents 17-6. They're 5-1-0 in away matches this season and they've outscored their road opponents 16-5.
1. Crowded house
There's been an awful lot to cheer on the field with the RailHawks this season, and it's nearly impossible to pinpoint any one thing that's more exciting than another.
But maybe the most exciting thing isn't what's happening on the field. Maybe it's what's happening in the stands at WakeMed Soccer Park. The RailHawks Pregame Part Tent as been an exciting new addition that has sold out since its introduction.
Over their last four matches at home, the RailHawks have played before an average crowd of close to 4,000 fans.
If folks continue coming in droves, the RailHawks will continue entertaining them.

Hi guys,
please help, otherwise I'm going to hammer my head.
Dynamic menus are overlapping under in the Main menu > Pearl Academy (here is the site: http://lopearls.businesscatalyst.com/ )
I really don't know how to fix it. Please help.
I would check the z-index for the menu links, the image slider may be will be using z-index to shuffle images so change the menu <a> css styling to use z-index: 2000; to make sure the dropdowns always appear in front.
The style you are looking for is defined as '#nav li:hover a, #nav li:selected a' in the styles.css file.
Hope this helps.
thank you, Ken. This one is ok, I checked:
/* All Levels */
#nav li:hover {
/* 1st Level */
#nav li:hover a,
#nav li.selected a {
border:2px solid #CCC;
border-bottom:2px solid #fff !important;
/* 2nd Level */
#nav li ul {
width: 200px;
border:2px solid #CCC !important;
overflow: hidden;
#nav li li {
background: #fff;
Something else is wrong, any ideas? thank you in advance.
Hi Alfiya,
This template is using the V2 menu system which does not use the systems admin interfaces to change settings. Here is a link to Liam's great article about configuring the V2 menus:
I created a demo site using the same template and the same issue happened to me, it would appear this template is not setup for sub dropdown menus, or there is a conflict with the javascript that creates the submenu <ul> elements in the container.html file.
Hope this helps, let me know how you get on.
Kind Regards
You gotta change the CSS mate.
try to give the display of inline-block to your top level lists or display:block and then float them left.
Second everytime I'm in a certain page, the link related to that page somehow generates this:
<li class> <a ....>text ....
why do you have an empty class in there? check the Menu module files and see what you've got there to fix that, you shouldn't have that. maybe some JS is messing with you too.
Assign classes through BC, or just target the lists directly with CSS.
If you want to be specific on what list you target, use this method:
#nav > ul
and then #nav > ul > li
this will target only the direct tag after the nav div.
man you got a lot going on there, this need a bit of clean up.
I can tell you that it takes a good chunk of CSS lines to control what you've got there.

Here are some ways to protect your privacy on a smart TV:
News 12 at 11 o'clock / Sunday, Feb. 3, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- There are big screens and flat screens, but there is no screen quite like the Samsung Smart TV.
"It's kind of of like going to the movies," said April Ramos as she reclined in her chair. "You can watch Netflix on it, you can Skype, you can play some games on it."
The Samsung Smart TV is the mack daddy of televisions, which is why Ramos bought one last summer. She never considered the possibility that personal information and privacy could be at risk because of the new high-tech device sitting in her living room.
Just a few months ago, a hacking group demonstrated how someone could gain access into the Samsung Smart TVs. A hole in the Samsung Smart TV could potentially allow hackers to gain access to sensitive information through your TV. Even more scary, the hackers could gain access to the camera on your TV to watch you.
"Samsung has said they are aware of the problem and they are going to fix it," said Philip Ross with Computer Exchange.
"They could get in and pretty much view the camera 24/7 if they wanted to," he said.
Chase Woodhams, a 20-year-old engineer, has also been hacking since he was 13 years old.
"This is the first step right here. I would actually have to crack her wireless password," he showed us on his laptop.
Woodhams told us anything that connects to the Internet can be hacked, including your smart TV.
"Do you know if your Internet password and all of that is pretty protected?" News 12's Elizabeth Owens asked Ramos.
"Oh yes, very protected," Ramos answered.
We asked Woodhams if he could hack into her Internet. It only took him 15 minutes to access it. He did not go any further.
"Whether it's worth my time? Probably not. Not unless you have $100,000 in your account and I know your account information is going to be on there," he said.
It may not be worth his time as a hacker to break into her smart TV, but he says there others who would benefit from watching her through her television.
"Like what you're eating while you're watching TV, even what furniture you have in your house, they could access your Web cam and look at the types of furniture you have," he said.
Data that could be used for advertising purposes.
"It's kind of creepy," Ramos said.
However, she may have unknowingly given the green light for spying with just a click of her remote.
"Anytime you install an app or a new piece of software on your computer, you always have to sign a terms and agreement," Woodhams said.
Samsung's Terms and Agreement states:
"... Please remember that there is always some risk in transmitting information electronically prior to our collection. The personal information we collect is stored within databases that we control."
"It makes me wonder should I be with my clothes on at all times?" Ramos said half-jokingly.
Samsung says it's working on a patch to fix the issue. The company did not respond to a request for more information from WRDW.

Kaspersky Lab warns users about the emergence online of a new version of the Gpcode ransomware program.
The program spreads via malicious websites and P2P networks.
Kaspersky Lab products detect the program as Trojan-Ransom.Win32.Gpcode.ax.
You can read more on our blog.
Kaspersky Lab is monitoring a new email worm which is currently spreading. Emails spreading the worm say "Here you have" in the subject line.
We detect the worm as Email-Worm.Win32.VBMania.
While the servers hosting related downloads have been taken down, we are keeping customers updated and protected against any new variants.
Net-Worm.Win32.Kido exploits a critical vulnerability (MS08-067) in Microsoft Windows to spread via local networks and removable storage media.
The worm disables system restore, blocks access to security websites, and downloads additional malware to infected machines.
Users are strongly recommended to ensure their antivirus databases are up to date. A patch for the vulnerability is available from Microsoft.
Detailed descriptions of Net-Worm.Win32.Kido.bt, Net-Worm.Win32.Kido.dv and Net-Worm.Win32.Kido.fx are available in the Virus Encyclopaedia. A dedicated removal tool is available here.
The new Gpcode variant encrypts files with extensions DOC, TXT, PDF, XLS, JPG, PNG, CPP, H etc. on hard drives using an RSA algorithm with a 1024-bit key.
After encrypting files, the virus leaves a text file in the folder next to the encrypted files with following message:
Currently, we detect the new variant, but we are unable to crack the 1024-bit key. Our analysts are continuing to work on both the key and the virus to resolve this issue.
Kaspersky Lab recommends that all Internet users enable maximum protection from malicious code and network attacks on their computers, refrain from executing suspicious programs received from untrustworthy sources and back up any important information on their computers.
