text: In 2012 the American Cancer Society released new screening recommendations for the prevention and early detection of cervical cancer. Screenings are tests for women who have no symptoms of cervical cancer. Among the changes: the American Cancer Society no longer recommends that women get a Pap test every year. RESOURCES: During the past few decades, screening has reduced deaths from cervical cancer, as doctors have been able to find cancer early and treat it, or prevent it from ever developing. Researchers continue to find out more about what causes cervical cancer, and the best ways to screen for it. There are 2 types of tests used for cervical cancer screening. The Pap test can find early cell changes and treat them before they become cancer. The Pap test can also find cervical cancer early, when its easier to treat. The HPV (human papilloma virus) test finds certain infections that can lead to cell changes and cancer. HPV infections are very common, and most go away by themselves and dont cause these problems. The HPV test may be used along with a Pap test, or to help doctors decide how to treat women who have an abnormal Pap test. The American Cancer Society regularly reviews the science and updates screening recommendations when new evidence suggests that a change may be needed. The latest recommendations are: All women should begin cervical cancer screening at age 21. Women between the ages of 21 and 29 should have a Pap test every 3 years. They should not be tested for HPV unless it is needed after an abnormal Pap test result. Women between the ages of 30 and 65 should have both a Pap test and an HPV test every 5 years. This is the preferred approach, but it is also OK to have a Pap test alone every 3 years. Women over age 65 who have had regular screenings with normal results should not be screened for cervical cancer. Women who have been diagnosed with cervical pre-cancer should continue to be screened. Women who have had their uterus and cervix removed in a hysterectomy and have no history of cervical cancer or pre-cancer should not be screened. Women who have had the HPV vaccine should still follow the screening recommendations for their age group. Women who are at high risk for cervical cancer may need to be screened more often. Women at high risk might include those with HIV infection, organ transplant, or exposure to the drug DES. They should talk with their doctor or nurse.In short, the American Cancer Society no longer recommends that women get a Pap test every year, because it generally takes much longer than that, 10 to 20 years, for cervical cancer to develop and overly frequent screening could lead to procedures that are not needed.Cancer Screenings can save lives many lives. And that is exactly why the American Cancer Society has launched the Community Health Advisor (CHA) program in Mingo, Logan and Boone Counties. The purpose of this local CHA program is to reduce Breast, Colorectal and Cervical cancer disparities by increasing awareness through education about the extreme importance of early detection and cancer screening. The program links the community with area resources by utilizing volunteer Community Health Advisors (CHAs) who collaborate with local outreach organizations to provide access to low or no-cost Breast, Colorectal and Cervical cancer screenings for women in these counties. The CHA volunteers also help navigate women to these lifesaving screenings by enrolling them in the CHA program and providing them access to resources to overcome barriers to screening. If you have a passion for helping others, we will train you to be a CHA Volunteer. If you are interested in becoming a Community Health Advisor (CHA) Volunteer, or would just like more information, please contact: Vicky Hughes at 304-638-5730 or email email@example.com. Together, lets help create a world with less cancer and more birthdays! Will you join us and save the lives of women in our community?

Wednesday, September 11, 2013
The Berkeley cross country team hosted its first-ever home meet and finished second to Bishop England over what runners call "a very tough course."
The Stags (56) finished second to meet winner Bishop England (16) and ahead of third place finisher Goose Creek (127). Stall, while running in the meet, did not field a complete team and did not factor into the scoring.
Austin Clewis led the Stags times with a 19:43 mark, with Tony Lilly on his heels at 19:47, and football team punter and kicker Vance Bailey pulling double duty with a 21:05 time.
"I was very pleased with our place as a team," said Coach Melissa Hicks. "However, I am looking forward to our individuals times going lower."
For the girls Linda Hodges placed seventh overall and Carol Brayton followed behind in eighth place. The Lady Stags did not field a complete team and did not factor into the scoring behind meet winner Bishop England (19) and Goose Creek (46).
"We are still a very inexperienced team," Hicks said of her boys' team. "Our times are close together, but I need them to lower them below 19:00 as much as possible. Once we can do that we will be very competitive."
Fielding a girls team at Berkeley is a new venture and the Lady Stags consist of just two runners, Hodges and Brayton. Five runners are needed to compete. However, Hicks was still pleased with how her two runners fared.
"Linda Hodges and Carol Brayton ran a good race and I look forward to their times getting lower as the season continues," she said.
The Stags are scheduled to run again at home on Wednesday and in Columbia on Saturday, Sept. 14 at the Coaches Classic.

The First Day of Class
It is very important you attend the first day of class where you will meet your professor who will outline the course and present the class requirements. Some professors may use the first day for introductions, and others may start course material that day. Either way, it is important that you are there to collect valuable information.
- Do not worry about getting lost! During the first week of classes, administrators and faculty are available to help you find your classes and answer any questions you may have. Plus, they also have free water and handbooks for you during the first week of school! Look for helpful, friendly faces at the main entrance.
- What to bring:
- Writing utensil
- Notebook
- Textbook (if you've bought it already)
- Class schedule
- Keep your syllabus. A syllabus is essentially a contract between you and your professor on what is expected from you and how you will be evaluated. Do not let a short syllabus disillusion you – it does not outline the many hours that must be spent in between tests and papers in order to perform well.
- The first day of class is not too early to start studying. Manage your time wisely; final exams will arrive before you know it.

Get Your Knicks Tickets
Knicks Fast Break Facts:
The New York Knicks haven't won an NBA title since 1973 -- but Knicks president Phil Jackson and superstar Carmelo Anthony will try to change that this season. After being courted by the Chicago Bulls and other teams, Carmelo decided to re-sign with the Knicks -- and vows to bring a championship back to the Big Apple. Be there to watch Carmelo, J.R. Smith, and Amar'e Stoudemire lead the Knicks to the promised land! Check out the Knicks' 2015-16 schedule, and get your Knicks tickets today!
NY Knicks Team History
The New York Knicks (formally the Knickerbockers) are a professional basketball team located in New York City. The Knicks are in the Eastern Conference's Atlantic division, and are one of the founding members of the Basketball Association of America(BAA), which merged with the National Basketball League (NBL) in 1949 to form the current NBA. The Knicks have won two NBA Championships in the history of their franchise (1970 and 1973), along with 8 conference titles and 5 division titles. New York plays its home games at Madison Square Garden located in Manhattan. In the 1980's they struggled heavily, both on the court and in attendance for their games, but a strong comeback to prominence in the 90's with star Patrick Ewing among others brought more attention to the franchise. Today the they are one of the premier teams in the league, despite having not won an NBA Championship in 30 years.
Knicks Rivalries
Other New York sports teams
As one of the NBA's oldest teams, as well as one of the most visible, it's no surprise that the Knicks have fostered some heated rivalries over the years. Some sports fans make a special trip to New York City just to watch their team take on the Knicks at the fabled MSG. The only thing better than watching the Knicks play at home is watching them take on one of their big rivals, because you know the MSG crowd is going to be insane. Here's a look at some of the bigger Knicks rivalries.
Knicks vs. Nets - The Battle of New York
While there was always a rivalry between the Knicks and the Nets when they were known as the New Jersey Nets, the franchise's move to Brooklyn in 2012 ratcheted up the competition to a considerable degree. Now they were both New York teams, fighting for the hearts of the citizenry as well as media coverage on television and the city's many tabloids. While the change to the Brooklyn Nets was big, what really intensified the Knicks Nets rivalry was Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov's incredible amount of spending. Prokhorov has spared no expense on fielding a contender, and has intensified the pressure on Knicks Owner James Dolan as well as GM Steve Mills to keep the Knicks as the Big Apple's favorite basketball team. With the intensity of New Yorker's love for basketball, demand for Knicks vs. Nets tickets has gone through the roof, as everyone wants to be a part of this rivalry. Wether the Nets Knicks game is at Madison Square Garden or the Brooklyn's Barclays Arena, you know the crowd is going to be into it. So if you can make it to a game, don't pass up a chance to enjoy one of the most intense atmospheres in sports.
Knicks vs. Celtics - New York vs Boston
As another avenue for the intense rivalry between New York and Boston, the Celtics and Knicks have had their share of intense games. Both teams have a passion for their city few teams can match, and a Knicks win tastes so much sweeter when it comes against the Celtics. When you look at the passion of other New York Boston rivalries like Yankees vs Red Sox, Giants vs Patriots, and Rangers vs Bruins, it's no surprise that Celtics Knicks tickets are as popular as they are. There have been some classic Celtics vs Knicks moments over the years, including Patrick Ewing bringing the Knicks back from a 2-0 series deficit in the first round of the 1990 Eastern Conference playoffs. That series saw Ewing put up 44 points in a 135-108 win in game four to force a game five. Many Knick fans also recall fondly Bernard King and his 44 points to lead the Knicks to a 106-104 win in Game 7 of the 1984 Eastern Conference Semifinals. You never know what you will see when you buy tickets for a Knicks vs Celtics game, so miss the opportunity of seeing one in person.
Melo vs. LeBron
As Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James entered the NBA in the same season, with James the No. 1 pick and Anthony the No. 2 in the draft, there was always competition between the two. That competition wasn't as pronounced when they both played in smaller markets, but when Anthony joined the Knicks and James took his talents to South Beach to join the Miami Heat, the Knicks vs Heat rivalry became something meaningful, and both players turn up the juice when they face each other. These are two of the best players to play the game, and there is always a chance that something special will happen when they are both on the court together. After four seasons in Miami, LeBron brought his talents back to Cleveland -- but you can bet that the Garden will be rocking when LeBron comes to visit.
The Knicks and Madison Square Garden
The Knicks of course play home games at the historic Madison Square Garden, which recently underwent massive renovations. MSG is one of the most beloved venues in all of sports, with a capacity of 19,812 for NBA games. Hearing the crowd at MSG go nuts after a big shot is like nothing else, and if you buy tickets just getting into the venue is worth it.

Who says using your phone in freezing temps has to be chilling?

Best Uses
I love the dexterity of these gloves, I can get gas, open my purse and even blow my nose without having to take them off. They work pretty well using a touch screen phone or a gps, I have to press a little harder than I normally would to get them to work with the tips. I will say they arent the warmest gloves ever, but thats not what I was looking for with these, I was looking to keep my hands moderatly warm and still be able to move my fingers well. Love the plum color!
Best Uses
My wife has RA & her hands are always cold. She loves these because they are warm but not stiff like some she has.
Best Uses
My wife says these gloves don't keep her hands warm, that the wind cuts right thru them.
I had to really press hard on my I phone to work and took to long.
Best Uses
Love these gloves. They keep my hands nice and warm. I actually can use my cell phone without taking my gloves off. Would buy again.
Best Uses
So thrilled to finally find a pair of gloves made specifically for the ladies. The fit is amazing. I no longer feel like I am wearing a small pair of men's gloves. These are trim, comfortable, practical & stylish. Plus, being able to use the electronic screen in my van without having to remove my glove is wonderful!
Best Uses
I needed a warmer glove to switch to when the temps got lower than 35, but didn't want to give up the ability to use my phone while wearing gloves. These are warm and cute. I opted for the raspberry color, which is beautiful. The top part of the glove has a nice stretch, which allows for smooth and comfortable fit. The palm has a suede-like black fabric that give a little grip on the steering wheel.
hands dont have to freeze when using phone
very comfy and warm

Nadal cruises in Madrid for fifth title since comebackBy RAPHAEL MINDER
The New York Times | May 13,2013AP Photo
Rafael Nadal falls to the ground in celebration after winning the Madrid Open against Stanislas Wawrinka Sunday.MADRID In front of an adoring crowd and on his cherished clay surface, Rafael Nadal defeated Stanislas Wawrinka to win the Madrid Open on Sunday, securing his fifth title since returning in February from a knee injury.
Nadals 6-2, 6-4 victory was a one-sided exhibition of clay-court mastery, particularly in the first set, which Nadal won in half an hour. Nadal, of Spain, used heavy topspin to keep Wawrinka running far behind the baseline. When Wawrinka risked a net approach, he was usually beaten by Nadals fierce passing shots.
After being sidelined for seven months, Nadal has reached seven consecutive finals, winning five. He now has three Madrid titles, but this victory is even more special considering how complicated this year has been, Nadal said.
Wawrinka has long played in the shadow of his Swiss compatriot Roger Federer, but he has been one of the most impressive players this season. He arrived in Madrid after winning a clay tournament in Portugal a week ago. He lined up strong performances on his way to the final, leaping to 10th from 15th in the rankings.
Wawrinka acknowledged the superiority of Nadals game, but he also said he felt out of juice by the time he took the court against Nadal. Wawrinkas grueling Madrid schedule included a quarterfinal victory over Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, 6-2, 6-7 (9), 6-4, that ended after 1 a.m.
If youre not completely there, then hes killing you, like he did at the beginning of the match, Wawrinka said at a news conference, referring to Nadal. He was always dictating the points.
In the second set, Wawrinka briefly managed to keep pace with Nadal and make better use of his one-fisted backhand, one of the best on the tour. At 3-3, however, he served two straight double faults, handing Nadal a decisive break. Wawrinka never had a break point of his own.
Earlier in the day, Serena Williams defended her No. 1 ranking and her 2012 Madrid title by coasting past Maria Sharapova in the womens final.
Williams completed her 6-1, 6-4 victory in slightly more than 1 hour 15 minutes, then celebrated her 50th career singles title by performing a pirouette for the crowd.
If Sharapova had won, she would have passed Williams for the top ranking. Before Sunday, Sharapova had not dropped a set in the tournament, and she had won 25 straight matches on red clay.
But Williams has not lost to Sharapova since 2004. Sharapovas game unraveled Sunday from the start, when she failed to hold serve as Williams took a 4-0 lead. Even in the fifth game, which Sharapova won, she had three double faults and sent two backhands well beyond the baseline, symbolic of an afternoon in which she rarely found any rhythm.
Starting the match like that isnt going to get me anywhere, Sharapova said at a news conference. A lot of things were slow; I wasnt reacting well and not moving well.
Asked to compare Williams with other top players she had faced in her career, Sharapova said, She is certainly the strongest, physically the most powerful and the biggest hitter.
Williams repeatedly outpaced Sharapova, sending some forehands down the line that Sharapova could only watch from a distance.
Williams later walked into her news conference wearing a red T-shirt that read, Bestest Ever.
Every time I play, I really relish it more, Williams said, smiling. I feel like, honestly, Serena, when are you going to get tired? I dont know.
Until Sunday, Williams had not won a title on red clay since the 2002 French Open. Last year, the Madrid tournament organizers chose to use a blue clay that drew heavy criticism for being slippery. Williams said the decision to switch back to traditional clay was a plus, allowing for better preparation for the French Open, which starts in two weeks.
Its a little slower than it was last year and plays more like a true clay court, Williams said.
Nadal, who was among the loudest critics of the blue clay, thanked the organizers for improving the play conditions and returning to a regular clay surface, on which he has now won 40 titles.MORE IN Wire SportsGREEN BAY, Wis.

If "Several Shades of Rummy?" were the title of a book, it would be one about the life of Rob Rumfeldt. Perhaps Rob Rumfedlt is not a name you are familiar with, but stay tuned. Rob and his southern Ontario team mates (most call Guelph home) expect to be challenging for the Ontario curling crown in the years ahead.
The team, comprised of skip Rob Rumfeldt, vice Adam Spencer, second Scott Hodgson, lead Greg Robinson and fifth Jeff Robinson, has been together for about 5 years (Adam only joined the team last year) and has been inching up the standings each year. They have a busy schedule this season: they have already played in the OCT Championship and the KW Fall Classic and in the weeks and months ahead, you'll see them battle out on the ice at the Stu Sells Tankard (Toronto) from October 5-8; the Huron ReproGraphics Oil Heritage (Sarnia) from October 26-28; the Mount Lawn Gord Carroll Classic (Whitby) from November 1-4; and then The Masters (formerly the Sun Life Classic; in Brantford) from November 15-19.
Goldline wishes Rob and his entire team much success this season. With good play and a bit of luck, we will be cheering them on at the men's Tankard in Barrie from February 4-10, 2013, and hopefully again at the Brier!
To help you get to know the players a bit better, here are some excerpts from our recent interviews with the team:
Q: If you weren't curling, what sports would you be playing?
Scott – Soccer: in a dream world, I would be playing for Manchester United
Jeff – Lawn bowling
Q: If you could be anyone dead or alive, who would you be?
Greg – Richard Branson
Adam – Eddie Vedder
Q: What is your favourite body part?
Greg – the last few hairs left on the top of my head
Jeff – I am fond of them all
Q: What would you do if you had a million dollars?
Rob – Invest it
Adam – Play a lot more golf
Greg – Spend it in a week
Q: What is one of your favourite quotes?
Scott – Dreams are free so you might as well dream big.
Jeff – It is better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission.
Q: What's the hardest thing you've ever done?
Rob – Aside from parenting, physiotherapy after breaking most of the bones in my hand/wrist
Scott – Tried to get somewhere without a GPS

Center Jason Krog leads the way with an AHL-season best seven points (3G, 4A), the most by a Wolves player in nearly 10 years and one shy of matching a single-game franchise record. Krog's night earns him the league Milestone of the Month award for November as the first AHL player in nearly eight years to register seven points in a game. Left wing Brett Sterling also sets a single-game franchise record for a rookie with five points (2G, 3A) in the tilt.

Theater Lover Takes A Stand Against Annoying Cell Phone
By editor
Originally published on Mon May 20, 2013 10:18 am
Good morning, I'm Steve Inskeep.
Kevin Williamson took a stand against annoying cell phone use. The National Review writer attended a musical in New York and says the crowd was disruptive. One woman was Web surfing on her phone, violating theater rules. Mr. Williamson tells Gothamist he complained to the woman. She replied: So don't look. That's when Williamson grabbed her phone and threw it across the theater, an offense for which he says he's glad to go to jail if he is prosecuted.

Hey All,
I am new to STMC but I must say this site is awesome. You guys put in some rad work.
My request: I need two 5 second clips of a Constitution class vessel orbiting a planet, and moving from orbit to warp. The shot could be a view of the ship from further away. If it is simpler, the views of the ship don't have to show the name of the ship or any numbering. In the short film the Ship is called the Arion NCC-1724.
This is for a short fan film that was done with out of pocket expenses and is not for profit. Everyone involved in the project worked for free out of their love for StarTrek. I would be willing to show a rough cut of the video and would give full credit to anyone involved. Also, could provide a copy of the film as well.
If anyone is interested please let me know, as I am eager to finish the short and this is one of the last pieces remaining! Thanks
Jeff Cravalho

U.S. Actor Tom Cruise gives a speech at the inaguration of a Scientology church in Madrid Sepember 18, 2004. According to Scientology headquarters in Los Angeles, the 50-year-old religion now claims more than 8 million members in 159 countries. The church's most famous celebrities include John Travolta, Tom Cruise and Nancy Cartwright, who is the voice of Bart Simpson. REUTERS/Paul Hanna PH/WS
(E News) - Lawrence Wright is probably right-on when he says that people are still making a big fuss over Scientology these days because of Tom Cruise.
"There's nobody more important in Scientology since L. Ron Hubbard. He's the front of Scientology," Wright says of Cruise in an interview with E! News at New York's Whiskey Park to discuss his latest book, Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood and the Prison of Belief.
And, according to the Pulitzer Prize-winning author, who also penned a conversation-starting New Yorker article about filmmaker (and ex-Scientologist) Paul Haggis' experience with the organization, the Hubbard-founded church is perfectly content with letting Cruise be its most prominent champion.
"From the very beginning of the Church of Scientology," Wright says, "they established it in Los Angeles, they created the Celebrity Center there in Hollywood, and the whole goal was to take over the entertainment industry and use celebrities as kind of a product endorsement for their brand."
But, he tells E! News, the door swings both ways. John Travolta, for instance, Wright says, has credited Scientology for helping him score his best film roles.

Tzitzit, the Fringes on the Prayer Shawl
Fringes for four-cornered garments.
By Rabbi Louis Jacobs
We Also Recommend
Reprinted from The Jewish Religion: A Companion, published by Oxford University Press.
The Israelites were commanded to put fringes on the corners of their garments: 'Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make throughout their generations fringes (tzitzit) in the corners of their garments (Numbers 15:38).' The tzitzit are now placed in the special tallit, or prayer shawl, worn during prayer.
The insertion of the tzitzit in the tallit is as follows. Four threads, one longer than the other three, are inserted in a hole at the corner of the tallit and then doubled over to form seven threads of equal length and one longer one at the right-hand side. The threads of the two sides are tied in a double knot. The longer thread is then wound around the others seven times and a further double knot is made. The longer thread is then wound around eight times and another double knot is made. A third winding is then made eleven times and a double knot is made, and then there is a winding of thirteen and the last of the double knots is made.
It is desirable that after the windings and the knots have been made, all eight threads are of equal length. Manufacturers of tzitzit make the longer thread of a length sufficient for this to be done.
What Could the Numbers Mean?
The symbolism of all this has been variously interpreted. Thus, on one view, the Hebrew word tzitzit has the numerical value of 600 (tzaddi = 90; yod = 10; tzaddi = 90; yod = 10; tav = 400; = 600 in total). When the eight threads and the five knots are added there is a total of 613, corresponding to the 613 precepts of the Torah.
In another version, the eight threads correspond to the eight days that elapsed from the Israelites leaving Egypt until they sang the song of deliverance at the sea (Exodus 15). The five knots correspond to the five books of Moses (the Pentateuch). The numerical value of the Hebrew for 'the Lord is One' in the Shema is 39 and this is represented by the total of the windings (7+8+11+13=39).
Since the tzitzit are on all four corners of the tallit they act as a reminder to Jews to acknowledge God and His Torah at every turn.

Thursday, May 8, 2014
The Georgetown County School District is spending more than a half million dollars this summer to beef up security at the front entrances of seven of its schools and improve the strength of windows at all its schools.
This is another step in trying to improve the safety at our schools, said Superintendent Randy Dozier. Weve identified those areas we need to improve on. Its just trying to make things more secure for us.
The seven schools that will get improvements are Carvers Bay High, McDonald, Rosemary, Waccamaw and Pleasant Hill elementary, and Waccamaw and Georgetown Middle.
The rest of the districts schools will be upgraded next summer. That will be a separate contract and the cost for that work is unknown.
Dozier said the schools were built to be inviting and open, but things have changed, and every time there is an incident at a school somewhere else, the district reevaluates its security measures here.
Its a long process, but I dont think well ever be through, Dozier said.
Although the district does not want to reveal some of the measures for security reasons, many improvements are geared toward additional protection for school staff and students by putting up barriers that restrict visitors access.
Tighter security is already in place at Waccamaw High School. Staff must unlock a door for visitors and thick plastic panels form a short hallway which funnels visitors into the front office.
Resistant filming will be placed on some windows at all schools in the district, which will improve security and make the windows more wind resistant, Dozer said.
Upgrades will also likely include replacing glass doors at schools, Dozier added.
FBi Construction Co. of Florence was awarded the contract for this summers work. The base bid was $527,952 and the maximum cost is $555,000.
School board member Richard Kerr, who represents Pawleys Island, remarked that he believed the district was spending a lot of money on something that might not happen instead of for educating the districts children.
In other business
The School Board reviewed a first draft of a new policy regulating booster clubs in the district.
Dozier said the district is not trying to put any stumbling blocks on clubs, just trying to give some accountability and rules.
Some of the proposals:
Every organization must have a board, register with the state as a nonprofit 501 (c)(3), and have its own bank account.
School principals must review and approve all fundraising activities and wish lists from coaches.
The club will have to account for a fundraising revenues and disbursements and provide documentation to the district on request.
The district and superintendent must approve any facility or capital improvements and major equipment purchases.
No district employees can conduct a clubs financial business during regular work hours.
Any supplements paid to coaches must be handled through the districts Human Resources Department.
No action was taken by the board on the policy.
Dozier asked that principals get feedback from coaches and report back to the board.
Rob Horvath, chairman of the board of the Coastal Montessori Charter School, told the School Board that the school has found a new site to build a facility.
The school had a contract to build on USCs Longleaf Pines property on U.S. Highway 17, just south of Pawleys Island.
After a neighboring community threatened legal action to stop the project, the board decided it was in best interest of the school to terminate contract.
The board has now signed a contract for 6.9 acres just north of the original property on the same side of the highway.
Horvath said the board is working with the Justice Department to get approval for the new site, the USDA to expedite its loan, and its architect to change the original plans to accommodate the smaller property.

The Boeing Company, and all the Mount Pleasant Elementary schools have come together to promote reading and literacy in our community.
About four years ago, Art Collins, member of board of directors of The Boeing Company, began writing a nine-book series of adventure books for kids entitled; The Adventures of Archibald & Jockabeb. Target age range for the books is between about 8 and 12 years old, although older kids and parents enjoy them also.
Collins has donated over $5,000 in books from the series to elementary schools in Mount Pleasant (Pinckney, Belle Hall, Jennie Moore, Whitesides, Mt. Pleasant Academy, James B. Edwards, Sullivan Island, and Trident Academy), as well as several CCSD Title I schools. All of the Mount Pleasant schools have included the books in their reading curriculum. All of the books have free professional study guides.
He is committed to helping to promote reading and literacy. The books are also part of Charleston's Reading Partners program. This program buys books and supplies volunteer tutors for struggling readers in the Charleston Country School District.

Science Matters
A Major Step Towards Cleaner Water and Soil
EPA releases a pivotal health assessment addressing the health effects of trichloroethylene.
A major milestone for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and more importantly, the protection of human health and the environment, was achieved on September 28, 2011, with EPA's release of its much anticipated final health assessment for trichlorethylene (TCE).
TCE, a colorless liquid, is used mainly as a solvent to remove grease from metal parts and other cleaning operations. It is also an ingredient used in paint and spot removers. TCE was one of the contaminants identified in well water in a case made famous in the Hollywood motion picture "A Civil Action" starring John Travolta and Robert Duval.
The TCE final assessment was posted to EPA's Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) database, an internationally recognized human health assessment program that evaluates risk information on health effects that may result from exposure to environmental contaminants.
While the IRIS database contains high-quality human health information on hundreds of chemicals of concern, the completion of the TCE assessment is especially notable due to the chemical's volatile nature and widespread use as a chlorinated solvent.
TCE is one of the most common man-made chemicals found in the environment and is present at hundreds of Superfund sites across the country. It has also been detected in groundwater and is able to move from contaminated water and soil into the indoor air of overlying buildings, a major public health concern. The assessment concludes that TCE is carcinogenic to humans and poses a human health hazard for effects on the central nervous system, the kidney and liver, the immune and male reproductive system, and the developing fetus.
The final assessment's release marks a major accomplishment for the Agency as it provides federal, state, local and private decision makers with much needed cancer and non-cancer toxicity values for TCE, allowing them to make important risk management decisions to protect public health. Additionally, it allows for better understanding of the risks posed to communities from exposure to TCE in soil, water and air.
"This assessment is an important first step, providing valuable information to the state, local and federal agencies responsible for protecting the health of the American people," said Paul Anastas, assistant administrator for the EPA's Office of Research and Development. "It underscores the importance of EPA's science and, in particular, the critical value of the IRIS database for ensuring that government officials and the American people have the information they need to protect their health and the health of their children."
EPA's TCE assessment has undergone several levels of peer review including, agency review, interagency review, public comment, external peer review by EPA's Science Advisory Board and a scientific consultation review in 2006 by the National Academy of Sciences.
The final release of the TCE assessment is a testament to the success of the recently improved IRIS process, restructured in 2009 to reinforce independent review and ensure the timely publication of assessments. In July 2011, EPA announced further changes to the IRIS program in response to recommendations from the National Academy of Sciences. EPA will continue to strengthen IRIS in an effort to ensure that the best possible science is used to protect human health and the environment from chemicals like TCE.

Rated 3.7 out of 5Â by 6 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5Â by RainOrShine pretty, but disappointing I've been a FP girl for 15 years and of course saw this and immediately thought it would be PERFECT for my upcoming wedding this summer. Unfortunately, the whole thing didn't work for me. I'm athletic, usually wear a size small in most brands but XS in Free People. The XS was huge on me and did nothing to flatter my figure. The drop waist made my torso look like a beer gut when I sat down and there is just SO much fabric in the back it would make the skinniest person look wide. The straps don't stay up at all, I would have had to rig something to keep them up. And the liner is a very heavy knit with zero shape, just a big saggy strapless tube. I wish it was light and delicate like the rest of the fabrics. All in all, the details are beautiful and I so wanted it to be perfect but I know I would be fiddling with the straps and pulling up the lining all day. It's not effortless nor flattering in any way. 12.22.2011
Rated 5 out of 5Â by TiffanyMichelle beautiful detail This dress is totally sheer. It runs large. I recommend to size down a size. It is much more beautiful in person. The detailing and color are very lovely. Soft, extremely delicate material. Dress up or dress down. Recommend. 11.19.2011
Rated 4 out of 5Â by qqq Beautiful but not for me. I fell in love with this dress as soon as I saw it. I'm 6'1 and found the proportions of the dress did not fit well at all. The neckline was too low and the waistline was too high. I ordered a large and it was very wide and not nearly long enough. I'm so sad :< I'll be sending this one back. The quality is wonderful though, just didn't fit my height and figure. 11.25.2011
Rated 1 out of 5Â by amanea Are you joking? So I ordered the Lace gown golden ochre and guess what I got instead... this drapey princess dress gone horribly wrong. I decided to try it on since it was there... OMG. It doesn't really look good on the model it just looked ridiculous on me. I'm short and slim (5'1, 90lbs) so if you think it looked long on the model just imagine on a shorter girl. In addition I have a short bust. I honestly do not understand who could pull this off. It's not just the unflattering cut it's also the fabric, it's heavy really heavy because of the waist band. To conclude this dress is ugly unfaltering poorly designed with a questionable choice in fabric. A perfect waste of $600. 1.27.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by cardona_mary Really beautiful I bought this dress for my wedding and although it turned out to be more "ivory" it seemed in the pictures, I loved it. I think it is really romantic and rare at the same time. I really loved it and it is totally the style of dress I was looking for. I'm still looking for a cover-up to wear with it. Any suggestions?? 9.10.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by renee7481 Goregous, but can do with a few tweaks What a gorgeous dress! I ordered a size M (I am usually UK size 12) and the overall fit is pretty much spot on. This dress is probably better suited to a girl with a bit of a bosom and some hips, I imagine it would probably not sit well otherwise! The skirt is perhaps a little too long, but then again my legs are a little shorter than usual and also don't intend to wear heels with it. It is more sparkly in real life than the pictures, especially on the top part of the dress, but this doesn't bother me. It is also much more 'ivory' in real life, in some of the pics it looks more white. But again, I prefer ivory to white so this is fine for me! I do however agree with some of the other reviews: the lining is poor and will NOT stay up longer than 2 minutes, and also the shoulder straps are very loose - but these are things that can easily be altered with the help of a good seamstress. I was well aware of this before I ordered it, and was prepared to tweak it a little till its perfect. I guess it just depends how badly you want the dress and if you are prepared to spend the time and effort to have the alterations done. I am wearing it to my outdoor summer wedding, and for the price I have paid for a 'wedding' dress, this little extra effort is well worth it - considering how pretty it is! 4.10.2013

CHAPMANVILLE - The Marshall University Thundering Herd coaches caravan roared into southern West Virginia on Wednesday as they made their annual trek to the Logan Country Club near Chapmanville.
Marshall University had its annual Big Green Golf Scramble and luncheon at the Logan Country Club in Chapmanville on Wednesday afternoon.
Local Marshall Alumnus David Dean organized the event. Dean, a local real estate agent, played football for the Thundering Herd back in the 1990s.
The luncheon and golf outing was a sold out event. Local WVOW radio personality Dave Allen served as the master of ceremonies.
Marshall University Athletic Director Mike Hamrick, also a MU graduate, told the crowd about all of the projects the Herd athletic department has going on.
Currently an indoor practice facility, which will include a 120 yard indoor football field and an indoor running track with six lanes, is already under construction. The new $8 million soccer facility should be finished by this fall. There will also be a new Hall of Fame room at the practice facility. A new level of suites will be added to Joan C. Edwards Football Stadium in the near future.
Work on four new skybox-level suites at the football field is ready to get underway in the next few weeks. The $3 million project will add four 24-seat suites to the top level of the stadium press box.
Hamrick also said that a new baseball field is the next priority for Marshall.
Hamrick, a graduate of Herbert Hoover High School, who played football for the Herd in the mid-1970s, talked about his years with the program. The seasons during the 1970s were tough for the Herd. The program had to be rebuilt after the horrendous plane crash in 1970 that took the lives of the entire team, coaching staff and several boosters.
Hamrick is the person who made Kelly green the official color for MU athletics. In the past the teams used a variety of the color green, such as forest green and others. Now all of the teams and sports apparel sold to fans is Kelly green.
Hamrick was also responsible for getting famous alumni like former NFL quarterback Chad Pennington and NBA coach Mike D'antoni involved in a fund raising effort to help build the new facilities for the sports programs at the Huntington school. Greenbrier resort owner Jim Justice is another MU alumnus who recently made a huge $5 million contribution to his alma mater.
"Chad and Mike have done a wonderful job as co-chairs of the Vision Campaign, and I personally want to thank them for their efforts and support," Hamrick said.
Hamrick stated that there is currently $33 million worth of new athletic facilities being added to Marshall University.
"This will help our coaches and university, " Hamrick said. "The support we get from communities like Logan are so important to our programs."
"That progress is overwhelmingly encouraging, but there's much more work to do in the Vision Campaign, " Hamrick stated.
Retiring Logan County Superintendent of Schools Wilma Zigmond was presented with a special award during the luncheon. She received both her Bachelor's Degree and her Master's Degree at Marshall. Her official biography was read by the MC Dave Allen. Fellow MU grad and close friend Raimie Barker "roasted" Zigmond, but praised her work in education as a teacher, principal and county administrator.
Barker said he has known Zigmond since the 7th grade and the two shared a long friendship. After she received her awards, Zigmond spoke to the crowd. She then received a standing ovation.
Other Marshall alumni in the audience that were pointed out were Hall of Fame basketball player Jim Davidson, former football player Ron Lemon and others. Lemon was one of the first who played at Marshall after the plane crash.
Marshall head coaches Doc Holliday (football), Tom Herrion (basketball) and Shonda Stanton (softball) each spoke briefly to the crowd during the luncheon. (Watch for more stories in future editions of this newspaper with comments from each of the coaches about their programs.)
The event was sponsored by the Logan Regional Medical Center, the Logan Area Marshall Athletic Club and several other local businesses.

What has been proposed is a 25-day reduction in the number of doe days for the 2013-14 deer season, said John Bowers, assistant chief of the game management section of the DNR's Wildlife Resources Division. But the overall length of deer season will not change.
"This proposed change is a result of scientific data, and deer hunters will still be able to hunt bucks during either-sex days," he said.
Long-term data indicate a statewide decline in the fawn birth and survival rate in all physiographic regions of the state. At the same time, does have comprised 60-65 percent of the annual deer harvest. Additionally, the harvest of does has increased by 13 percent over the past few years.
So with fewer deer being born and surviving to adulthood, coupled with high levels of adult does being harvested, a statewide regulatory action is warranted, Bowers said.
Also playing a part in the decision is a marked increase in public dissatisfaction related to antlerless deer harvest and the declines in deer density witnessed by many deer hunters in Georgia.

My thoughts and best wishes to your father . . .
If you can take it (like THE SHINING with Jack Nicholson) as an entity in and of itself rather than relating it to the book, it's okay. But I agree that an adaptation true to the book would be fantastic. IMHO, I don't see how it can be done, however, outside of a TV mini-series, though because a theatrical release would have to be 10 hours long to do the book justice, and that simply doesn't happen. Like when NICHOLAS NICKLEBY with Roger Rees was on Broadway years ago - It was an 8-hour play shown in two shifts! Only way to do it justice...
I liked the movie but really thought it should have been called "Low Men In Yellow Coats" since it didn't have anything to do with the "Hearts In Atlantis" section of the book.
I think they had to take out the DT references because the non SK readers wouldn't have understood. I think it's a good movie but not a good adaptation.
I'd rather see a movie adaptation of the real "Hearts in Atlantis".
Actually, I wouldn't. Film adaptions of books are almost always horrible.
The movie was a complete disgrace to Sai King's writing, IMHO. I loved the book and read it twice back to back and have re read it many times over the years. I was disappointed in the movie version all thou Mr. Hopkins was great with the hacked script he was given. Would love to see him as Ted in DT movies.
I don't remember much of the film, but I don't remember disliking it. I'm sure it could have been better, but I wouldn't say it sucked. JMO
I agree. I thought the movie was bad. The left out a HUGE chunk of the book.WTF!
Carol dead in the movie? Bronco Nagurski?
