The study of Health and Human Development is based on the premise that health and human development needs to be promoted at an individual level, and within group and community settings at national and international levels, to maximise global development potential. This underpins the structure of the four units of Health and Human Development. The study looks at physical, social, emotional and intellectual development beginning with the individual and progressing to the family, community and an international perspective. It acknowledges that health and human development is influenced by biological, social and behavioral determinants and the physical environment. The study also promotes the understanding that nutrition plays a major role in influencing both health, health status and human development. Health and Human Development at the VCE level focuses on factors that promote wellbeing of individuals, family and communities.
In addition topics to be addressed in this unit include:
- the place of health and human development education in the curriculum of the senior secondary school with particular focus on the VCE study design Health and Human Development;
- translation of the study design;
- approaches to teaching and learning of health and human development;
- exploration of contemporary resources texts and resources;
- the application of technology for accessing; and
- interpreting health data and the nature of school based and external evaluation and assessment for VCE.
Assessment 1: Resource Exposé activity, 50%, (2000 words equivalent). Students select a Unit of Study and research four different types of resources and demonstrate (via a 12 minute presentation and critical analysis) how these can be incorporated into teaching and learning of the selected "key knowledge" and "key skills". A written summary is also submitted.
Assessment 2: Teaching Unit Group activity (2-4 people). As a group students are to develop and document in detail, a unit of work that addresses selected "key knowledge" and "key skills" from the study design. The unit is to demonstrate sequential teaching of the content knowledge students needs to acquire to gain an understanding of the selected key knowledge. Each group will discuss their unit of work via a digital audio recording (2000 words equivalent per group member).

Another great first offense punishment for shoplifters would be to use a bright red dye like what is used in the bank dye packs. Dye both hands for everyone to see. Make this ink where it would take at least two months for it to gradually fade away on the hands. Let everyone know who these "scum bags" are and what they thrive on.
Yard clippings
It is obvious that the County and City have too many employees with not enough to do. Last week, I looked out to see police and deputies in front, behind and on the side of my house. It looked like a SWAT team. I thought maybe I had been implicated in the Boston bombing. All six of them came into my house and surrounded me. I was being accused of the heinous crime of putting yard clipping on the curb in front of my house. A simple phone call could have resolved the matter.
Downtown crime
After all the solutions being contemplated concerning crime downtown in Augusta and at Riverwalk, the root of the problem has still not been mentioned. First, the thugs roaming the streets and alleys seeking people to rob are not being controlled. These are the same as those who caused the closing of a once beautiful Regency Mall.
Second, the State of Georgia doesn't require an instructional training class to obtain a concealed-weapons permit (CWP), so South Carolina won't honor Georgia's permit. In retaliation, Georgia then refuses to honor South Carolina's permit. This leaves me, as a law-abiding citizen of South Carolina, defenseless to enjoy night strolls with my wife and children on Riverwalk as we used to do, lest we end up beaten and robbed as the couple was lately.
In the SC-ETV "Naturescene: Hitchcock Woods" program, naturalist Rudy Mancke says that a core sample has dated a tree in the bottom of the ravine to the time that the first few people were starting to build in Aiken. Therefore, the ravine was here before the City of Aiken and was created by nature, not by Aiken. If Aiken was near the Grand Canyon, the City would be spending millions to fix that "problem."
To the person who keeps writing in about drugs in New Ellenton: Drugs are everywhere in Aiken County. You have a mayor, police department and police officers that your tax dollars pay for. Stop the madness, get them to do their jobs or vote a new mayor and police chief in.

Aaron Madow '14 Curates Photo Exhibit in Magill Library
Seeing Is Believing: Photographs of American Colonialism in the Philippines, is up in Sharpless Gallery through February 1.
A new photography exhibit opened in Magill Library's Sharpless Gallery in October, but it wasn't curated by a professor, visiting scholar, outside artist or member of the library staff; it was the work of a student. Aaron Madow '14, as the inaugural recipient of the Library Exhibit Internship, is responsible for Seeing Is Believing: Photographs of American Colonialism in the Philippines, a show that explores the American colonization of the Philippines through pictures taken by colonial officials and their accompanying captions.
"The exhibit encourages its viewers to realize the colonial deceit in the assumption that 'seeing is believing,' " says Madow. "While the photographer, Charles Martin, and his boss, colonial official Dean Worcester, insisted, through their captions, that one could tell tribal type and level of civilization merely by looking at these photographs, they tellingly clash in their classifications. I argue that their captions reveal the arbitrariness of a supposedly scientific classificatory system, and that they tell us far more about the photographer than the individual in the photograph."
The exhibit, which will be up in Sharpless Gallery through February 1, is the culmination of work Madow did over the summer that was sponsored by the John B. Hurford '60 Center for the Arts and Humanities and the Library. The internship allowed Madow not only the time and resources to pour over the photographs that were donated to Haverford in 2006 by a Quaker family, but it also funded a nine-day trip to archives at the University of Michigan and Chicago's Newberry Library.
"I am so grateful to the Library and the Humanities Center for giving me this opportunity," says Madow, a history major and environmental studies minor. "Conducting original archival research is something most Haverford history majors do not get to do until their senior thesis research, and the chance to do it and succeed has taught me so much about what I am capable of and what I want to do with my future."
Madow first encountered the photographs from the exhibit last fall in Assistant Professor of History Andrew Friedman's class "Gender, Intimacy, & U.S. Foreign Policy," a course that first sparked Madow's interest in the American empire and its representational strategies. And now that the project is finished, he sees its as good practice for next year's senior thesis, which he plans to write on the cultural history of Israeli-American relations. Additionally, it sparked his interest in committing to further study of imperial history and the use of photography as a historical source.
"When I applied [for the internship], I had a strong analytical background from Professor Friedman's class, but I only knew a week's worth of readings about American colonialism in the Philippines," he says. "This particular era is so important because it mostly has been effaced from American collective memory, and it heralded America's emergence as a formal colonial power akin to the traditional European ones."
But Madow learned about more than just the historical moment of the Philippine-American War (1899-1902) and the colonialism that followed. He also learned concrete, high-level research skills and how to design an exhibit, including the collaborative nature of curation.
"I have learned that being the curator of the exhibit is a title which conceals my intimate dependence upon many people," says Madow. "I received constant support from Terry [Snyder, librarian of the College] and John [Anderies, head of Special Collections], and this exhibit would not have physically come into being without the tireless work of [Library Conservator] Bruce Bumbarger, Thomas Littrell '15 and Whitney Mueller '15…. There are so many people who were also crucial in making this exhibit happened, and their names can all be found at the beginning of the exhibit, prominently displayed right where they belong."
For Madow's own account of his summer spent researching this project, check the Humanities Center's blog, Decentered.

McFarlane Toys is proud to present MLB 14, the first Sports Picks baseball lineup for 2006. MLB 14 features six of the best players in baseball, and will be available at Toys R Us stores nationwide. Like MLB 11, solid-packed cases of each player will ship directly to Toys R Us stores in each player's home city. We believe having figures readily available in the team member's home city is good for everyone, and we're striving to make that a reality in 2006.
So who's going to be in MLB 14? Here are the six answers you've been waiting for, as well as the prototype photography to satisfy your curiosity. Cameraman, ZOOM IT!
MARK MULDER -- The Oakland Athletics decided to split up their "Big Three" pitchers and the Cardinals stepped up immediately to nab Mark Mulder. The Cardinals' loss in the 2004 World Series left them targeting starting pitching, and Mulder didn't disappoint in his first season with the redbirds. The two-time All-Star and former 21-game winner compiled a 16-8 record in St. Louis, and looks forward to continuing his role as the Cardinals' left-handed rotation anchor for years to come.
BOBBY ABREU -- Bobby Abreu's versatile skills have made him Philadelphia's best player but also has been under the radar for most of his career. His 2005 season included a .286 average to go with 24 homers, 102 RBI's and 31 steals, but the spotlight finally found him on July 12th, 2005. Abreu muscled up in the All-Star Home Run Derby, crushing 24 homers in the first round and winning the event with 41 total homers -- eclipsing the previous record of 27. A surprise no longer, Abreu is set to lead the Phillies into the 2006 season.
ARAMIS RAMIREZ -- Cubs fans were used to the rotating wheel of mediocrity at third base since Ron Cey's departure in 1987. Chicago seemed to offer up a different starting third baseman every year: 1995's Todd Zeile, 1996's Leo Gomez, 1997's Jose Hernandez, 1998's Gary Gaetti, 1999's Ron Coomer and 2000's Bill Mueller. On July 23rd, 2003, the Cubs finally decided enough was enough and acquired Aramis Ramirez from the Pirates. Ramirez rewarded the Cubs by drilling 15 homers in his first 63 games and he hasn't looked back since. With the third base dilemma solved, Ramirez and his Cubs look to do some damage in 2006.
JEFF KENT -- The Dodgers muddled through a forgettable 2005 season, but one bright spot was the play of off-season signee Jeff Kent. The former MVP turned in another strong season, cracking 29 homers with 105 RBI's. While not garnering national attention, the consistent Kent has become baseball's all-time leader for career homers by a second baseman. The Dodger roster may be in flux with a new general manager arriving, but Kent's steady play at second base makes him one player L.A. can count on and build around in 2006.
JASON VARITEK 2 - There are 30 men in the Baseball Hall of Fame who once played for the Red Sox, but Boston has only named three captains since 1923. Catcher Jason Varitek wears the "C" proudly and served as the backbone of the 2004 World Championship club. Aside from being a strong defensive catcher who switch-hits with power, "Tek" brings a cerebral intensity to the game that has earned him league-wide respect. The diverse Boston clubhouse has long agreed on one thing -- Jason Varitek is the leader of their team.
ALEX RODRIGUEZ 4 -- Mixed reviews dogged Alex Rodriguez's first season on Broadway, but his encore left no doubt. A-Rod's .321 average was second-best in the American League, while he topped the leaderboards with 48 homers and a .610 slugging percentage. His strong play continued in the field, as he made just 12 errors in 161 games at third base.
MLB 14 will be sold exclusively at Toys R Us stores and is scheduled to arrive on pegs in Feb. 2006.

It's a design flaw. The zipper shouldn't start at the bottom of the coat. It should start higher to create a bit of a vent. Better to just use the snaps most of the time. Otherwise, it is good coat.

I'm a 5'7 and 143 lbs so I'm not a big guy. I'm fairly lean guy. But the fit of this jacket is pretty tight on sleeves and the bottom part. The sleeve part is ok, but the tightness at the bottom makes it dangerous to sit down when you have it zipped.

Comments about Justin Original Workboots Justin Men's 10" Rugged Western Work Boots:
I've recently tried 3 different styles of Ariat boots and none have fit as well as the Justin J Max 11" pull ons I have now. The fit and comfort is far better than ANY workboot i've ever had. Feels like you're wearing a tennis shoe. I have a lighter tan color and they do stain pretty easily. I wear these for farm use mostly. They're exsposed to all the elements and have held up great. I will buy another pair and would highly recommend these to friends. I also like the fact that they are Made in the USA, which was the deciding factor in buying these.

It's an update on a major development coming to University Drive and College Station's Northgate area.
The College Station City Council unanimously approved an agreement with the Texas A&M System as the university moves forward with a new development called Campus Pointe.
The city council is excited about the development, but there are concerns about traffic congestion.
The College Station City Council is looking forward to the 58 acre Campus Pointe project A&M wants to build in the coming years that will include a hotel, retail space and even apartments.
But if you've driven down University Drive during rush hour and peak times you've seen how congested this area has become and it's expected to get worse as an estimated five thousand people are projected to live in the area later this year with new high-rise developments.
College Station City Manager Frank Simpson tells us a study on ways to improve pedestrian and bicycle traffic in the area is already under way with Campus Pointe now on the horizon.
"Traffic has been you know foremost on the concern of most people throughout the development of Northgate. And what this really does is A&M has agreed to cause Midway, the developer to do traffic impact analysis and have plans reviewed and provided input by the city as well as TxDOT," said Simpson.
"People bring their bikes and they'll walk but that's unavoidable. We'll just see how it goes," said Zachary Gregory, a Texas A&M Student.
Campus Pointe will be anchored by a hotel and conference center with potentially more than 225 to 250 rooms. The name of the development could also change.
So far though final details have not been released.
Construction is expected to start soon but will be built in phases. The final phase of construction would go up no later than November of 2022.

They say, "What you don't know won't hurt you," but that statement isn't entirely accurate, especially when it comes to assuaging a child's fears.
The Moncks Corner Medical Center partners each year with local civic groups to host the Teddy Bear Clinic, an informal and low stress event designed to provide youngsters with an educating, entertaining and non-threatening introduction to the hospital experience.
"The purpose of the Teddy Bear clinic is to help kids get acclimated to the hospital, so that if they were ever to come into the hospital, they would be familiar with blood pressure, thermometers, x-ray, laboratory and people in scrubs who are smiling," Moncks Corner Medical Center Director Ann Edlund said. "The goal is to make them not scared and help them get more comfortable with health care. We want children to feel that we're helpers."
On Saturday, kids toured a fire engine, visited with deputy sheriffs and other police officers, talked with dental assistants, and even checked out the Life Flight helicopter.
The clinic's other objectives are to educate children and their parents about car seats and seat belt safety, proper dental hygiene and water safety.
"It's important for children and parents to observe proper seat belt safety," said Berkeley County Coroner and Berkeley County Rescue Squad Chief Bill Salisbury. "A major cause of fatalities in automobile accidents is people being ejected from the vehicle in the event of a rollover accident."
Ben Colley from the South Carolina Highway Patrol demonstrated what happened in the event of a rollover accident using crash dummies not wearing seat belts and dummies properly secured in car seats.
Moncks Corner Medical Center partnered with SC Highway Patrol, SC Department of Natural Resources, Moncks Corner Fire Department, Berkeley County Coroner's office, Berkeley County Rescue Squad, Life Net, the Berkeley County Sheriff K-9 Unit, Coastal Carolina Peds Dental, and Mother's Against Drunk Driving.
"We will be having another clinic next year," Edlund said.

From the scenic highland slopes of the Gayo Mountains near Laut Tawar in the Takengon region of Northern Sumatra, comes the exotically aromatic Takengon Sumatra coffee. There are over 200 small coffee producers who contribute to this very important OCIA certified organic coffee production. The farmers and communities of this remote region face a number of environmental and socio-economic challenges, including soil erosion, deforestation, low and unstable incomes. The organization, production, technical assistance and higher prices for certified organic coffee help these remote farmers by being able to generate a better income for themselves and improve the economic basis in the communities. This coffee is Certified organic, Fair Trade, and Water Process decaffeinated (a chemical free process). This decaf has rich flavor, full body and low acidity. Takes a variety of roasts from City through espresso. This coffee is great as a varietal, blender and perfect for espresso.

Why Did Christina Aguilera Write "Fighter"? You Asked, We Answered!
Almost 10 years ago, one of the most iconic songs in pop music was released — Christina Aguilera's "Fighter." This anthem for a generation of the downtrodden inspired tons of teens.
But what inspired Christina to write it in the first place?
The diva explained the song's meaning in Chicken Soup For the Soul: The Story Behind The Song.
Here's what she had to say:
"I wrote this for my sophomore album, Stripped, and I was very determined for it to reflect who I was. The first record was what the label wanted and created. There was a huge pop explosion at the time and I was part of that wave. I felt stifled. I was thankful that the early success allowed me the freedom to write what I wanted for the next one.
I was 21 and I had a lot on my mind. I had been performing in front of an audience since I was 6, helping to make a living for my family. I grew up in a very chaotic and abusive home where I didn't feel very safe. I started writing music, both melodies and lyrics, when I was 15. In retrospect, I realize I used it as a release, a therapeutic outlet. It was the way I found my voice. I connected with the music and escaped from my home life. In school, I was picked on and alienated because of my passion for music. So I harbored a little personal pain but the seemingly negative things made me smarter and stronger. I took notice early of the people all around me in the business who were there for the wrong reasons.
I wrote "Fighter" when I was on tour promoting my first CD. I was coming up with titles and ideas and deciding what I wanted to write about. I had to sit down and make sense of my feelings and experiences. I learned a lot from the first record that helped me to develop. I took the good and the bad and considered some of the choices I made and became better because of it."
Is "Fighter" your favorite Christina song? Tell us below!

The Northeastern Printing Plan annually provides a limited amount of free printing to students, faculty and staff. Each September members of the Northeastern community receive a $120 credit on their Husky Cards that can be used at various color and black & white printers across campus. The annual credit does not rollover from year to year, and when your balance hits $0.00 the printing system will default to using Husky Dollars. All jobs sent to the printing queues are available to print for 24 hours. Cost is determined on a per page basis, and varies depending on the type of printer used and the size of the paper.
The $120 annual credit is automatically refreshed and made available to students, faculty and staff at the start of each academic year. Printers are located across Northeastern's campuses. Print jobs can be sent from a computer that has installed the virtual printing software, including computers in ITS-Managed Computer Labs. Print jobs can be sent to four different print queues:
- Black and White 8.5×11 – $0.10 per page
- Black and White 11×17 – $0.30 per page
- Color 8.5×11 – $0.30 per page
- Color 11×17 – $0.75 per page
Get Started
Download and install the Virtual Print Client. To print on campus from a personal machine, you must have the Virtual Print Client installed AND you must be connected to either a wired network or NUwave (it will not work using NUwave-guest). Once a print job has been sent simply find a swipe-to-print station associated with that print queue, swipe your Husky Card at the card reader, select your file and print.
See the How To's below to learn how to install the Virtual Print Client, and to print from your own computer or at ITS-managed labs.

Solomon said, "The day of death is better than the day of birth."
After Jesus died on the cross Peter says He preached to the spirits in prison that had been disobedient in the days of Noah.
"For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
Which sometime were disobedient (no longer disobedient means their prison was working),
Hi,Lots of points in this post that give me questions.QuoteSolomon said, "The day of death is better than the day of birth." I'm sure the ETs will say the verse is about the good people going to heaven. Not the sinners.
Ecclesiastes 9:4Anyone who is among the living has hope even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!
Salvation is from the law of both sin and death by the higher law of life in Christ producing both righteousness and victory over death. "...for the spirit's law of life in Christ Jesus frees you from the law of sin and death. " (Rom 8:2, CLV) Salvation is partaking of the Divine nature, being conformed to the image and likeness of God, spirit, soul and body, not merely a better location in death, however true that may be too. Nothing in the Bible says God's saving work is limited to this life, or that it ceases when somebody dies. All it takes to prove this wrong is to quote a verse that says something like that. We ought to meditate on what is instead written that is clear and easy to understand:"For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit." (1 Peter 4:6 AV)
QuoteEcclesiastes 9:4Anyone who is among the living has hope even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!Isn't it be better for a believer to be dead? That way you are one step closer to God.You die. Then a long time noting. When you wake up (resurrection) you are in Heaven.Or is this about spiritual death?If yes, isn't the believer automaticly the superior lion spiritual speaking?
Ecclesiastes 7:8 The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride.The day of death is better because it's the completion of one of God's purposes. He's not saying that it's preferable, but that it's more "accomplished."

By emnuzbacg from USA on 2008-08-02 12:48:17Things I liked:Absolute perfection in surface finish. No skirt deformalities. For just a little more $ you get the best for plinking and serious shooting. Great in low velocity hand guns and I would assume in the low velocity rifles as well.
Things I would have changed:All RWS pellets should be packaged in spin top containers. We all know why.
What others should know:I look to RWS the same way I look to Nosler. And for the same reasons.
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:
By Richard P from USA on 2012-02-24 12:03:54Things I liked:These pellets work very well in my Crosman 357,.177ca. Co2 pistol. I've tried others,up to 10.5 grains,but I like the RSW pellets the best in this pistol.
Things I would have changed:be more consistant in the weight,even though out of 500 pellets about 100 were all over the target,the rest were between 1"-1.50" groupings.
What others should know:For the price these are by far the best I've used in my Crosman Co2 Pistol.I think that you'll be satisfied as well as I am.

Comparing images from the new mammography equipment at Twin County Regional Hospital (TCRH) to images from its previous equipment is much like the difference in looking at a High Definition television as opposed to an old standard model.
The new digital mammography equipment at the Galax hospital makes that much difference in the images produced. Not only that, the new equipment is up to 28 percent more accurate and results in patients spending about half the time at the hospital as in the past for breast exams.
"The pictures tell you more than words could ever say," said TCRH Mammography Technologist Kim Kimble, R.T.(R)(M), CRH. "I'm really excited we are able to offer this technology to our patients."
Just in time for breast cancer awareness month, TCRH now offers digital mammography, the latest technology available in the fight against breast cancer. The new system includes integrated Computer Aided Detection (CAD). CAD provides a "second look" for the Radiologists to focus attention to potential areas of concern, improving the accuracy of cancer detection.
"It helps us get a much better look at the dense tissue or fibrocystic tissue, the type of tissue that often hides breast cancer," Kimble said. "It's hard to see it, but now we have the technology that allows us to penetrate those areas better and get a much better look."
Additionally, David Payne, Director of Diagnostic Imaging, CRA, BS, RT(R) said a high-resolution monitor allows doctors to zoom in and concentrate even more on potential problem areas.
"It's a lot quicker for the patient and it reduces the number of repeated tests," Kimble said. "I think it shows Duke LifePoint's commitment to the hospital and the community. We've needed this technology and now it's here. The patients are loving it and they are amazed about how quick it is."
Payne said Duke LifePoint intended to make the digital mammogram equipment one of the first major projects at the hospital since a partnership began six months ago. He said it shows the company's understanding of the needs of the hospital and the community.
"It helps us with our mission of meeting the needs of the community," Payne said. "This equipment will help us reach that goal."
Digital mammography is different from conventional mammography in how the image of the breast is acquired and more importantly viewed. The use of mammography, and in particular digital mammography, has greatly enhanced the ability to detect breast cancer at an early stage, when it's most treatable. Digital mammography detected significantly more cancers than screen-film mammography in women 50 and younger, premenopausal and perimenopausal women, and women with dense breasts, according to results from the American College of Radiology Digital Mammographic Imaging Screening Trial (DMIST). All mammograms at Twin County Regional Hospital are now performed with digital mammography system.
Breast cancer statistics are staggering:
One of eight women living in the U.S. will get breast cancer in her lifetime.
Breast cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. It's the leading cause of death in 35 to 65 year old women.
The good news is that if breast cancer is found early, before the cancer has spread, the five year survival rate is 98 percent. Over 2.5 million American women with a history of breast cancer are alive today thanks largely to the many new techniques for finding and treating the disease.
For most women 40 and over, an annual mammogram is the best way of finding breast cancer early. Mammograms play a central part in the early detection of breast cancer because they can detect changes in the breast that may be early signs of cancer, but are too small or subtle to be felt. By offering the latest technology in mammography, Twin County Regional Hospital is committed to the fight against breast cancer and hopes to increase the number of women who follow the recommendations for regular screenings.
For more information about this life-saving technology or to schedule a mammogram appointment, please call Twin County Regional Hospital Diagnostic Imaging at (276) 236-1680.

A Beech Island man is dead after succumbing to injuries he suffered during a hit-and-run incident early on Saturday morning, according to the Aiken County Coroner.
Robert Brooks, 48, was pronounced dead on Sunday afternoon at Georgia Health Sciences University.
Coroner Tim Carlton reported Brooks was attempting to aid a motorist on Saturday who had run out of gas by transporting her to the gas station when the Moped he was operating was struck from behind by another vehicle.
Sandra Huntington, 39, of Beech Island was arrested on Saturday afternoon in connection to the incident. She has been charged with two counts of leaving the scene of an accident resulting in great bodily injury, according to S.C. Highway Patrol.
The incident happened at about 12:30 a.m. on Pine Log Road near Russell Hills in Aiken, according to Highway Patrol.
Both vehicles were heading south when the Moped was struck.
S.C. Highway Patrol's Multi-Disciplinary Accident Investigation Team is investigating the crash. An investigation by the Aiken County Coroner's Office is ongoing.
The condition of the passenger on the Moped, Kathrine Bentley, 32, of Windsor, is unknown at this time.

'spawn 2' movie news
And Tidbits on Other Entertainment Projects
Friday, March 08, 2002
And Tidbits on Other Entertainment Projects
March 8, 2002
The second full-length Spawn feature film took another significant step toward reality with the recent completion of the script by Todd McFarlane and Steve Niles. The script was approved by co-producer Don Murphy (From Hell, Natural Born Killers) and has been forwarded to executives at Columbia for their approval, which could come as soon as next week.
Todd and Steve have been hard at work in recent weeks, hammering out the script at a breakneck pace. Niles was in Phoenix working directly with Todd to complete what they hope is the script's final draft.
As spawn.com has reported for some time, the new film will be a radical departure from the original Spawn movie. It will have a more mature theme and likely an R rating. No hints on plot yet, but the script itself is very dark and entertaining. Stay tuned to spawn.com for more details as they become available.
In other entertainment news, Todd McFarlane Entertainment has been in discussions with two video game companies, one in Tokyo, the other in Melbourne, Australia. They are both interested in developing a Spawn PS2 game and an XBOX game. If the deals go through, we would hope to see a game on the shelf by fall 2003.
Also, in the last couple of weeks, two record companies contacted us, both interested in having Todd direct music videos for them. One artist was interested in some animation sequences, while the other wants Todd to direct a live action video. Stay tuned for updates.

Welcome to year two of our weekly series of 'link-up' Posts which reflect on life's journey, old memories and family stories (see below for more info).
On the day of my 17th birthday I applied for my Provisional Driving Licence. At least that's how I remember it. Let's just say I was eager.
I worked my way through at least two separate driving instructors and 2 driving tests and success still eluded me, much to the entertainment of my unsympathetic sibling.
I can remember returning home after the first attempt to pass my test (there was no 'theory' test in those days, of course. … a simple requirement to drive in a straight line, no need to understand the road signs). I collapsed dramatically into my mother's arms and sobbed like a baby. She took this be an indication that I had not been successful, and comforted me accordingly.
In truth, the driving examination had been a catastrophe. And a travesty to boot. I had been denied my freedom to prowl the city 'en voiture' because of a man's speech impediment. Yes, people. Injustice of the grossest kind.
The tiny little office where you waited with your driving teacher to be called for your examination had been atmospheric with teenage angst. I was as nervous as the rest, and when my name was finally called, a moustached middle-aged man with a solemn face led me to his car. We stopped some distance across the car park, where he asked me "can you r-r-r-ead the number plate please?" I obliged, courtesy of recently acquired 20/20 vision and my National Health specs. All proceeded well until, at the approach to a busy junction on the main road, my stuttering examiner declared that I should "Turn R-R-R-R- LEFT!"
Anticipating that any word that commences with the letter 'R', no matter how long it took to actually get to the important bit, must surely be a turn to the RIGHT. Right?
Wrong. By the time I had negotiated my perfectly-executed RIGHT turn, the examiner was in a tail-spin. This maneouvre had clearly thrown the entire route which he had carefully plotted on his little paper map out of whack (no GPS in the 80s kids), and was frankly doing nothing for his stammer.
I was failed with a capital F. Hence the tears. And the injustice. Damn you, stammer man.
It took me a further two tests to get my licence, and apart from a tiny little speeding ticket in the 1990's, my record has been blemish free ever since.
Can you remember your driving test? Maybe it was the lessons which caused you anxiety? Share your memories by joining our weekly Link-up (new theme each week) with your own blog post, or simply by chatting in the comments section. Everyone is welcome for a dose of sweet nostalgia!

There's something about high school hoops
I've attended my fair share of college and professional basketball games. I've sat on press row and chanted in student sections. I've heard alumni degrading referees and rushed courts after televised upsets. But in the end, there's no place I'd rather see a game then a crowded high school gym.
Granted, I've never seen a game at the Dean Dome, Cameron Indoor, Assembly Hall or even attended a legit NBA game (the Bobcats don't count), but there's just something about hundreds of loyal fans crammed onto plastic bleachers with knees touching cheering on their hometown kids.
There's something about the first row of fans sitting less than three feet from the court as others walk the tightrope along the edges of the floor to get to their seat.
I love seeing the crowds of students congregate to their respective sections the way I did back in my slightly younger days. The way the students treat it as a date night and awkwardly flirt and hold hands. Yeah, I used to be one of those, we all were.
I love seeing families of players sit as a group and harass opposing players who have the audacity to tightly defend their son, daughter, niece, nephew, grandson or granddaughter. I love hearing the jeers should when a referee has the nerve to call a foul on their team. High school fans are by far the most subjective fans, which makes for a good time for people like myself.
I love the flamboyant coaches who run up and down the sideline, snap clipboards, argue with referees all while sweating bullets as if every game could be their last.
I love the reaction that any and every slam dunk attempt brings. A successful throw-down ignites the crowd into a frenzy, but if the rim has other ideas, every coach scowls in disgust knowing that an easy layup could have been had if their player didn't feel the need to be a show-stopper.
I love the inevitable battle between cheerleaders as to who can be louder.
And everyone knows I have to have a snack time between games. I love the hand-written price sheets at the concession stand and the unique options various schools have. Who doesn't love the chicken tenders at R-S Central?
Friday night lights is a special experience, but there's just something about high school hoops that gives me chills. It's a social experience masqueraded as a high-intensity night of basketball.
If you don't understand what I'm describing, make sure to be in Shelby Tuesday night as East Rutherford invades Lloyd Little Gymnasium for what will be an absolute electric atmosphere. This one is worth the 30-minute drive.
So if you prefer college floors or NBA arenas, you can have them. I'll choose a cramped gym with low rafters and locals every day.

A utility trailer was stolen from Habitat For Humanity of Berkeley County the night of Labor Day.
Habitat For Humanity Executive Director Bryant Knepp said an employee was at the Moncks Corner office, located at 408 S. Live Oak Dr., that day and the trailer was still there when the employee left.
When Knepp arrived the next morning the single-axle trailer was gone, he said.
"It was about a $5,000 loss for us," Knepp said. "We need to get our tools back in place."
Hand tools, two DeWalt saws and one DeWalt drill were in the trailer at the time of the theft, according to a Moncks Corner Police Department incident report.
Knepp said tape measures and drill bits were also lost in the theft.
Kathi Cotterill, who manages Habitat's ReStore in Goose Creek, said their most expensive tools were not inside the trailer at the time but hand tools, gloves and other items used by volunteers were.
"It's just too bad," Knepp said. "We were getting ready to put the lettering on it . . . the trailer was in really good shape."
He said he thought lettering would deter theft.
"I've worked at three Habitat affiliates in the last 10 years," Knepp said. "Each has been stolen from."
The trailer was unhooked from the Habitat van, Knepp said.
The police report indicates there were no suspects at the time the crime was reported.
On Aug. 24, Berkeley Habitat started its next home "build" in Bonneau for a single mother of four who works at a bank in Moncks Corner. Cotterill said the trailer is an important part of each build.

What I need to know about Peptic Ulcer Disease (PDF, 612 KB)
A peptic ulcer is a sore on the lining of your stomach or duodenum. People who take NSAIDs such as aspirin and ibuprofen long-term or are infected with the bacteria H. pylori are most likely to develop peptic ulcers.
A dull or burning pain in the stomach is the most common symptom of peptic ulcers. Causes include long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), an infection with H.pylori, or both. Rarely, tumors cause peptic ulcers.
Ulcers have different symptoms and causes, but only endoscopy or an x-ray can determine if you have one.
Different foods do not cause or prevent peptic ulcers, but drinking alcohol does make ulcers worse.
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) and other components of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) conduct and support basic and clinical research into many digestive disorders.

Black Trilogy Small Square Bowls, Set of 4 3 3
completing my set This was the only bowl I was missing for my set of dishes. Perfect size for kids portions, or rice, or small fruit salad. Love these! April 9, 2014
Make great serving dishes I bought these specifically for using as serving dishes for condiments (sauces, salsas, etc.). We have a set of square black plates and these matched perfectly. It was really nice to find square bowls instead of the traditional round. These are nice and heavy, and well balanced so they don't tip. July 24, 2008
Liked but sent back Loved them, but thought they were too small, so i did send them back. September 24, 2008

Jewish Views on Christianity
Theological attitudes toward Christianity have changed over time in response to social and political developments.
By Rabbi Louis Jacobs
We Also Recommend
The church began censoring unflattering references to Christianity in Jewish texts in the mid-13th century. Thus uncensored versions of the Talmud influenced early medieval attitudes toward Christianity. In addition, mention should be made of the vehemently anti-Christian Toledot Yeshu (The Life of Jesus), a Jewish biographical narrative about Jesus, which probably appeared in its complete form around the 10th century. In it, Jesus is presented as the product of a rape–a disrespectful rebel who achieved supernatural powers by stealing a holy name from the Temple. In recent years, many Christian groups have reconsidered their traditionally hostile attitude toward Judaism, which has in turn, led many liberal Jewish theologians to soften their attitudes toward Christianity. Reprinted with permission from The Jewish Religion: A Companion, published by Oxford University Press.
In its very earliest days, Christianity was seen by the Jewish teachers as a Jewish heresy; its adherents were Jews who believed in the divinity of Christ [and considered Christianity a Jewish sect]. But when Christianity spread and became a world religion, with numerous converts from the Gentile world, it became a rival religion to Judaism. Christians were then seen as Gentiles not because they were Christians but because, in the main, they were, in fact, Gentiles (i.e. not Jewish).
Rabbinic Attitudes
In the Talmud and midrash, the comparatively few references to Christianity (these only appear in uncensored versions) are to this religion as a heretical sect believing in a form of dualism, God the Father and God the Son.
Typical is the comment of the late third‑century Palestinian teacher, Rabbi Abbahu, on the verse (Isaiah 44:6): "I am the first, and I am the last, and beside Me there is no God." As Rabbi Abbahu spells it out: "'I am the first,' for I have no father; 'and I am the last,' for I have no son, 'and beside Me there is no God,' for I have no brother." Since the doctrine of the Trinity did not emerge fully until a later period, there are no references to this doctrine in the Talmud or midrash, despite far‑fetched attempts to find hints of it in these sources.
