Family members have confirmed that the person killed in a late-night fire on Columbia Avenue was Aiken resident Thomas Jerome Butler.
One person was found dead inside the home on the 400 block of Columbia Avenue, where the Aiken Department of Public Safety responded to a structure fire at about midnight last night, police said. Upon arriving at the scene, they saw fire coming from the roof of the home. Police and firefighters later found the victim inside.
Authorities have not confirmed the identity of the victim; however, several neighbors and family members of Butler stood behind yellow crime tape outside the home this morning.
Butler's niece, Mae Davis, recalled her uncle as "a fun, outspoken guy."
"He told jokes all the time. Everyone knew him," she said, adding that "most people called him T.J."
"I just can't find words right now," Davis said. "He was more than an uncle to me."
Aiken Public Safety and the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division are investigating the cause of the fire.

Anne Hathaway Skips Underwear and Suffers Embarrassing Wardrobe Malfunction (PHOTO)
Anne Hathaway got a lot of attention at last night's New York City premiere of Les Misérables — and it wasn't just because of those perplexing Tom Ford bondage-esque sandals. We'd rank this one on the level of major fashion fail: The Oscar-nominated Hollywood darling stepped out of the limo in a high-slit gown (another Tom Ford creation) and revealed to all that she wasn't wearing underwear. Whoopsies — flashback to Britney Spears circa 2007!
If this is another look styled by Bravo star Rachel Zoe, Anne's mainstay stylist, you'd think that Rachel might have advised Anne to wear panties with a dress with a high slit — or at least given her a primer on graceful limo exits. And it's not like Anne needs any more publicity with her star shining as bright as it is right now, so what gives?
Well, Anne, don't sweat it: just think of it as going full-frontal for a role. Besides, some other celebrity will reveal his or her naughty bits, oh, say, tomorrow.

Don't laugh: Snow in Phoenix is really a big deal
A week that will go down in history: an asteroid zooms by the earth, a meteor disintegrates over Russia, it snows on my car.
Hey! Forget about the meteor stuff. I'm talking about breaking news.
It snowed on a parking lot I was in at 2:40 p.m. in Phoenix on Feb. 20. A friend said look outside and it was snowing. There might have been a little sleet, but that's just hard snow.
I was just a couple blocks from Northern, but it wasn't that Northern. Why didn't the weather gods consider how close I was to Sunnyslope?
Look, if right now you're in Flagstaff, quit laughing. In Phoenix this is a big deal. People actually went to the front door of the building and took pictures of all our cars with their white roofs. Everybody was excited.
Well, everybody but this one woman standing in the back frowning with her arms folded. I said "I'll bet you never thought you'd see something like this in Phoenix." She responded curtly, "I'm from Michigan and I'm not impressed." Well, that's her opinion.
As for me, I have to go buy a shovel before it's too late.
I'm Pat McMahon.

Corvallis, Ore. (Nov. 11)-The New Mexico State men's basketball opened the 2012-13 season with a 71-62 loss at Oregon State in the Sports 2K Classic benefiting Wounded Warrior Project.
The Aggies had three players in double figures with senior forward Tyrone Watson and sophomore guard Daniel Mullings scoring 14 points each. Senior forward Bandja Sy nearly had a double-double with 12 points and a game-high nine rebounds, and junior center Tshilidzi Nephawe added nine points and seven rebounds.
Early in the first half, the Aggies steadily built a lead and had a six-point advantage, 13-7, at the 12:27 mark thanks to controlling the glass. The Crimson and White had a 21-13 edge in rebounds in the first half. NM State maintained the lead until Oregon State utilized an 18-4 run, when the Aggie offense stalled and went over six minutes without a field goal.
The Aggies trailed 41-30 at halftime. Mullings had a team-high 14 points and four rebounds. Sy had seven points at the break, while Watson supplied six.
In the second half, the Aggies cut the Beavers' lead to single digits, 54-46, when Nephawe scored on tip-in on a missed free throw with 10:01 to play.
NM State didn't go away and kept fighting and trimmed Oregon State's lead to seven, 68-61, with less than two minutes to play on dunk from junior forward Renaldo Dixon. On the next possession, Sy hit a free throw to bring it within six, 68-62.
NM State returns home to start a span of three games in four days with the home opener against Southeastern Louisiana, Thursday, Nov. 15 at 8 p.m. inside the Pan American Center.

Comments about Saturn Peach:
Did not think peaches grew in West Virginia but did a little research and decided to take a chance. This is the second summer and the proof is in the pictures. Admittedly I do not know anything about peach trees but this one does not appear to care. Peaches a now 2 inch by 1 inch size, sweet but very hard. Although the peaches a small they are just like the picture. I think they are not quite ripe.

Comments about Saturn Peach:
The plant appeared to be alive upon arrival, judging by the flexibility of the stems. After planting, there has been no growth. Many of the tips have died (dry and brittle), but the branches still have flexibility. Will continue watering during hot season. There may be little hope for survival at this point.

Highlights From the Permanent Collection
In developing this exhibition in honor of Priscilla Payne Hurd, founder and benefactor of the Payne Gallery of Moravian College, a group of seven art history students from Dr. Radycki's ART HISTORY WORKSHOP collaborated to weave three distinct themes into a single cohesive exhibition. Foremost was to honor a life of giving to the college, and then to feature two groups of paintings donated by Mrs. Hurd which highlight the gallery's collection of works by the women of The Philadelphia Ten, as well as important works by the Pennsylvania Impressionists.
Payne Gallery is open noon to 4p.m. daily except Mondays, major holidays, and college breaks

Experience the warm colors at many angles from the beautiful oval stone in this Vintage Style Oval cut Baltic Amber Silver Ring. By holding the ring at certain angles, one can experience a warm deep orange that emulates a deep sunset over an ocean on a warm summer's eve as well as a light yellow coloration that is found as the first daffodil of the season blooms. These coloring effects are made possible by the process of exposing the stone to high levels of heat to create air bubbles that are known as "scales". These scales give the stone even more color than it's natural form. Set in a intricate .625 inch vintage design, this 10mm long oval amber stone is a stunning amber ring with unmatched coloration and beauty.

Meet one woman who is on her own stewardship journey.
And watch the short video below to see stewardship in action in South Africa.
The WWF is run at a local level by the following offices...
WWF has challenged Coca-Cola to be the best environmental stewards we can be. They're holding us to a high standard and that's going to make us a better company.
WWF has the maturity and understanding of business for us to be very open, and they can challenge us, and help us change our thinking, but we trust there will be an understanding of our position.

There has been a documented increase in the volume of regulatory activity during the last months of presidential terms.[1] This includes an increase in the number of legislative rules (normally issued under the Administrative Procedure Act's (APA) notice and comment procedures)[2] and non-legislative rules (such as interpretive rules, policy statements, and guidance documents) as compared to other periods. This spurt in late-term...
Midnight Rules
Project Stages:1. Gather ideas - Completed
2. Select ideas - Completed
3. Council approval - Completed
4. Picking a researcher - Completed
5. Committee consideration - Completed
6. Back to the council - Completed
7. Consideration by the full conference - Completed
8. Implementation - Current
Background: In the last three months of a presidential administration, rulemaking activity increases considerably when compared to the same period in a non-transition year.* Although part of this increase likely results from ordinary procrastination and external delays, scholars have suggested that administrations also use the "midnight" period more strategically. First, administrations are said to have reserved particularly controversial rulemakings for the final months of an outgoing president's term. Such strategic timing would weaken the check that the political process provides for regulatory activity and would impose the outgoing administration's policy preferences on the incoming administration. Second, administrations have issued rules in their final months that seem to have the main purpose of embarrassing or impeding the activities of the incoming administration.**
The scholarly literature largely condemns the practice of midnight rulemaking as undemocratic and inefficient. Both the House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Commercial and Administrative Law and the ABA Section on Administrative Law and Regulatory Practice suggested the topic of midnight rules as suitable for study by the Administrative Conference and the Conference undertook study of this topic.
Project Details: The Conference undertook a study on the issue of midnight rules. The study sought to establish whether rules issued in the final months of a presidential administration indeed have a different character than rules issued at other times, and, if so, why. The study also focused on recommending proposed procedures that could improve presidential and agency practices with regard to midnight rules. Recommendations in the study recognized that an outgoing President remains in power until the last moment of his or her constitutionally assigned term. The Conference's consultant, Jack M. Beermann, Professor of Law, Boston University School of Law conducted comprehensive research on the issue of midnight rules.
Additional Information: The Committee on Rulemaking held two public meetings, on February 23, 2012 and March 21, 2012, to consider a draft report and a draft recommendation for this project. The Committee came to a consensus on a proposed recommendation and it was approved to send to the Council of the Conference. The Council approved the draft recommendation with certain revisions, and the full Assembly of the Conference voted to approve the recommendation at its Plenary Session on June 14, 2012. All relevant documents connected with the Plenary Session and prior committee meetings are posted below.
* One study shows that, as measured by Federal Register pages (notably, a rather crude measure), rulemaking activity increases by an average of 27.4%. See Jack M. Beermann, Presidential Power in Transitions, 83 B.U.L. Rev. 947, 954, n.12 (2003) (citing Jay Cochran, III, The Cinderella Constraint: Why Regulations Increase Significantly During Post-Election Quarters 3 n.6 (Mar. 8, 2001) (unpublished manuscript on file with the author), available at http://www.mercatus.org/pdf/materials/459.pdf (last accessed Nov. 3, 2003) (studying the number of pages published in the Federal Register over specific time periods in various presidential administrations)).

Thursday, May 30, 2013
The MINI of Charleston Racing Team made a statement the first week of May by using the SCCA Majors Tour event at the two-mile Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to dominate both classes the team competes in for the SCCA National Racing Series.
In B Spec, Robbie Davis dominated and won from the pole both days, setting a new lap record of a 1:33.033 (just under 90mph). The drive was his last tune-up before he and his team set out for their professional racing series start at the Pirelli World Challenge series at the Circuit Of The Americas Formula 1 track in Austin Texas.
MINI of Charleston team manager and amateur racer Brad Davis had a more difficult race weekend than son Robbie.
Brad competed in the H Production class. Saturday's race saw the top four qualifiers with less than half a second between first and fourth place. At the start the race quickly became a battle between Davis, Martin Burk (Honda CRX) of Summit Point and Tom Broring (Triumph Spitfire) of Derwood, Maryland. For 16 laps the top three swapped positions several times and Davis was leading when a car from another class got stuck in a tire wall after an off course excursion.
After two laps behind the pace car the race would come down to a five-lap shootout. On the restart, Davis was able to put another class car between his MINI and Burk and Broring at Turn 5. Excited to get back to the front, Burk and Broring hit and spun in Turn 6 leaving Davis a 15 second win. Sunday's race was easier as Davis took the lead at the start and held off Burk for the first several laps until his car faded. Broring stopped to check a tire vibration and fell out of the lead lap. Gregg Ginsburg from Arlington, Va. put his Honda CRX into third to round out the podium.
Both MINI of Charleston drivers moved into first place in the SCCA National and Majors Points races, in their respective classes.

Patriarchy is killing our planet - women alone can save her
Nafeez Ahmed
13th March 2015The global epidemic of violence against women and their systematic exclusion from the power structures that rule us are integral to man's violent exploitation of Earth and her resources, writes Nafeez Ahmed. The fight to save the Earth must begin with the empowerment of women - and that means ending our complicity in their oppression, and servitude. more...
UK plans first new coal power station since 1974 - and it burns forests too!
Almuth Ernsting
17th March 2015A new coal and biomass-fired power station could soon be built at Drax in Yorkshire, already the UK's biggest coal burner, writes Almuth Ernsting. It comes with a weak promise of possible 'carbon capture and storage' - an expensive, inefficient technology shunned elsewhere. As the Government's nuclear dream fades, could this be its equally flawed replacement? more...
London Assembly votes for £5 bn fossil fuel divestment - listen up, Boris!
Divest London
12th March 2015Members of the London Assembly yesterday voted for the London Pension Fund Authority, worth £4.8 billion, to ditch all its fossil fuel investments over a 5-year period. The vote is non-binding, but the huge 15-3 margin puts strong pressure on London Mayor Boris Johnson to follow through. more...
Unlikely hero (or villain): Michael Mann, creator of the hockey stick graph
Brendan Montague / DeSmog UK
16th March 2015Michael Mann will be remembered as the creator of the 'hockey stick' graph of rising global temperatures, which has put him forever in the crosshairs of climate change sceptics. But as Brendan Montague found, he is a curiously unlikely hero, or villain: rather a dedicated scientist living the American dream, who just happened, to his own surprise, to stumble on something big. more...
Climate change sparked Syria's ruinous war

Save the Arctic sea ice while we still can!
John Nissen
5th March 2015The Arctic Ocean is coming close to complete summer meltdown, writes John Nissen - indeed it could happen as soon as September, triggering a severe deterioration in climate across the northern hemisphere. With fast-rising temperatures predicted in the coming decade, we must act now to save the Arctic, before it's too late. more...
Coming soon: the 'Big Heat'
Nafeez Ahmed
3rd March 2015Global warming has been on vacation for a few years, writes Nafeez Ahmed. But that's only because the excess heat - two Hiroshima bombs-worth every second - has been buried in the deep ocean. But within a few years that's set to change, producing a huge decade-long warming surge, focused on the Arctic, that could overwhelm us all. more...
Without its rainforest, the Amazon will turn to desert
Peter Bunyard
2nd March 2015Mainstream climatologists predict a 15% fall in rainfall over the Amazon if it is stripped of its rainforest. But the 'biotic pump' theory, rooted in conventional physics and recently confirmed by experiment, shows that the interior of a forest-free Amazon will be as dry as the Negev desert. We must save the Amazon before it enters a permanent and irreversible dessication. more...

Who are the real 'extremists'? more...
Brazil's ravaged forests are taking their revenge

2nd March 2015Thanks to massive deforestation along Brazil's Atlantic coast and the Amazon, São Paulo's reservoirs are at just 6% of their capacity and water rationing is in place.

Survivable IPCC projections are based on science fiction - the reality is much worse
Nick Breeze

Fossil fuel divestment backlash forces the question: Which side are you on?
Kate Aronoff / Waging Nonviolence
18th February 2015The fossil fuel industry's big reaction to Global Divestment Day shows us something important, writes Kate Aronoff - they understand the existential danger they face better than we do. To win the battle for the world's climate, as we must, the victory must be total - and there is no place for neutrality or weak compromise. more...
Southwest USA faces long term 'megadroughts' this century
Tim Radford & Oliver Tickell
17th February 2015The same pattern of severe droughts that extinguished the Ancient Pueblo culture of the southwest US in the 13th century will come back with a vengeance later this century as climate warms and dries, writes Tim Radford. And it could have precisely the same effect on the region's modern-day residents. more...
Greening transport - we can do it, if we want to!
Rupert Read
16th February 2015Public transport often doesn't work for travellers because it's fragmented, deregulated and operated for short-term profit, writes Rupert Read. A Green transport policy would force operators to coordinate their schedules, integrate multiple transport modes, and entice travellers out of their cars building a real public transport 'system'. more...
Geoengineering - the case is not made
Clive Hamilton
14th February 2015The geoengineering genie should remain firmly stopped up in its bottle until a robust case is made for letting it out, writes Clive Hamilton - and that's something the NRC's new report signally fails to achieve, providing no rationale for deploying the technology, or even experimenting with it. more...

13th February 2015Increasing numbers of investors are waking up to the reality that the fossil fuel era is coming to an end, writes Yossi Cadan.

So join the worldwide divestment party this weekend and help ram the message home! more...
Carbon stored deep in Antarctic waters ended the last ice age
Miguel Martinez-Boti & Gianluca Marino
12th February 2015The last ice age came to an end following the massive release of carbon dioxide from the Southern Ocean, write Miguel Martinez-Boti and Gianluca Marino, and the signature of that event is written in planktonic shells.

Adventures in the Anthropocene - a journey to the heart of the planet
Robert Hunziker
2nd June 2015Gaia Vince's remarkable book is far more than a litany of the problems of global warming and mass extinction, writes Robert Hunziker.

Jonathon Porritt

"That was a really big win for us," coach Lance Pittman said of the victory over Dublin. "It wasn't a region game, but they have a really good team and had beaten us pretty good earlier (48-27 in Dublin and 73-40 in the Christmas tournament). That should give us a boost of confidence. Win against a team like that and you realize you can play with anybody.
"The girls have been working hard, but we haven't been winning. After a while you begin to have doubts. Maybe this will get us going a little bit."
The Lady Hounds followed up their victory over the Lady Irish at home on Friday with a 42-29 win at Georgia Military in Milledgeville on Saturday to improve to 6-10 on the season.
They are 0-2 in Region 2-AAAAA after a 55-45 loss at Northside-Warner Robins last Tuesday, but Pittman saw some positives in that game as well.

Thursday, June 6, 2013
The King Street Marketing Group and Halls Chophouse announces that the president of the College of Charleston, P. George Benson, is the guest speaker at the upcoming Small Business Lunch at Halls on Thursday June 6.
Business is a prime interest of President Benson having served as the Dean of the University of Georgia's Terry College of Business and Dean of the Rutgers Business School at Rutgers University.
President Benson oversees 12,000 undergraduate and graduate students who live, study and work in downtown Charleston. The economic impact of the college on peninsula retail, dining and lodging businesses is measured in multiple millions of dollars.
How will the proposed merger between the college and the Medical University of South Carolina affect the business community?
What does President Benson see as the future of Charleston?
What is the college planning to do with the building at the corner of George and King?
P. George Benson became the 21st president of the College of Charleston on Feb. 1, 2007. Founded in 1770, the college is the oldest institution of higher education south of Virginia and the 13th oldest in the United States. The college has earned a reputation for excellence in the liberal arts and sciences throughout its 240-year history.
A native of Lewisburg, Penn., President Benson received a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics from Bucknell University, did graduate work in operations research in the engineering school at New York University, and received a doctorate in decision sciences with minors in statistics and economics from the University of Florida.
President Benson came to the College of Charleston from his position as Dean of the University of Georgia's Terry College of Business. Prior to that, he served for five years as Dean of the Rutgers Business School at Rutgers University. From 1977 to 1993, he was a faculty member in the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota. Prior to becoming a professor, he worked for AT&T's Bell Telephone Laboratories and the U.S. Army Security Agency.
Each month, Small Business Lunch at Halls features a distinguished speaker from the business, civic or political arenas upstairs at Halls Chophouse with imaginative mid-day cuisine prepared by executive chef Matthew Niessner.
Tickets are $28 per person for the luncheon and parking. Doors open at 11:30 a.m. Limited seating of 65 participants provides an intimate experience with each speaker.
Halls Chophouse is located at 434 King Street in downtown Charleston. Parking, validated at the event, is available at the Visitors Center Garage on Ann Street between King and Meeting Streets.

Comments about Patagonia Strider Shorts (Women's):
i am 5'5" and 122 lbs and ordered a medium. they fit fine - slightly loose in the waist but they don't move around, so it is comfortable. these were not as lightweight as i hoped but still fine for long runs in the summer.
Comments about Patagonia Strider Shorts (Women's):
I love these shorts I bought 3 pairs and run in them all the time and find them very comfortable. I used to wear nike shorts and I will never go back these are much better.

Comments about Patagonia Strider Shorts (Women's):
I just bought these shorts and ran a 16 mile trail race in them. I was highly annoyed the whole time with the crotch inseam and length. These seem to be made for teenagers or people who want low rider shorts. The shorts rode up in the crotch area the entire time. I was ready to strip down to my undies around 8 miles into the race. I have tons of Patagonia running gear and love it all, with the exception of these shorts. Very disappointed and will be returning. So far, the best running shorts I've found are the North Face flight series shorts.

Yoga can help with digestion
By Juliette Dallas-Feeney, Pure Matters
We'll admit it–we're still a little bit in denial that summer is (unofficially) over. Gone are the days of weekends at the beach and living in our bathing suits. And pretty soon, al fresco dining will be a distant dream. Sigh.
But with the passing of Labor Day comes a month dedicated to just the cure we need to zap our end-of-summer blues and center our minds and bodies: September is National Yoga Month!
In 2008, the Department of Health and Human Services designated September as National Yoga Month with the intention of educating people about the many health benefits of practicing yoga and how it can complement a healthy lifestyle. If you've been curious about trying yoga (or if you're a practicing yogi), you can celebrate National Yoga Month by taking free yoga classes for a week this month at over 2,200 yoga studios nationwide. We're happy to see that our government is giving yoga the props it deserves so that people all over the country can discover its numerous benefits.
While I don't practice yoga nearly as much as I'd like to, one of my favorite poses is the seated spinal twist. Whenever I'm feeling bloated and crampy or my digestion is out of whack from a few too many rooftop bar cocktails and BBQ food, this move almost instantly makes me feel better. It's also a great stretch for the shoulders, hips, neck and back and increasing flexibility in the spine.
Here's how to do the seated spinal twist at home:
- Begin seated on a mat or blanket with your legs extended.
- Cross your right foot over the outside of your left thigh and bend your left knee. Keep your right knee pointed directly up at the ceiling.
- Place your left elbow to the outside of right knee with your palm parallel and facing away from you. Place your right hand on the floor behind you, just behind your butt.
- While keeping both sides of your butt on the floor, exhale and twist to the right as far as you can, keeping your core tight and moving from your abdomen. Turn your head to the right to feel a stretch in your neck.
- Hold for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Switch sides and repeat.
Paired with a quality probiotic supplement like Pure Matters Complete Biotic which supports gastrointestinal regularity and a healthy digestive tract, this combo is a surefire way to reset your body for the fall.
I'll twist to that!

Tuesday, April 19, 2011
"This is the mud you paid for, get in it!" barks a Marine as runners come to a pit of muddy water. Taking a leap of faith off a slippery bank, they land in the mud hole trying to stay on their feet. Many go under and pop up covered in a thick layer of mud.
"Oh, it tastes so good." he laughs as they slosh around in the water towards the other side of the pit.
More than 1,200 teams of four came to Columbia to compete in the USMC Ultimate Challenge Mud Run to benefit Marines and their families from the Columbia area who have been wounded or killed while serving on active duty. The event started in 1993 and has become one of the largest mud runs in North America.
What kind of person enters a race to roll around in mud all day? Many from Summerville traveled to Columbia to participate in the run. Throughout the day, doctors, lawyers and CEOs passed by as they headed for the next obstacle on the course. Sure, macho guys with big muscles who communicated with each other through a series of grunts were there but so were many others. Husband and wife teams, students and many groups dressed in various costumes could be found on the course.
We all face obstacles in life, usually they aren't 15-foot walls. On the course, competitors had to navigate the wall and 30 more obstacles spread out along a 5.2 -mile course. Many involved climbing, balance and coordination. They were built of wood, ropes and of course -- mud.
Each obstacle offered new challenges that involved a lot of team work. Team members would hoist and heave each other up walls or over logs to complete each point in the course. If one team member did not complete the challenge, the team was penalized in minutes. The only way to complete many of the challenges was to work together.
Teams had to stick close together and were only as fast as the slowest person. For many, speed was not a concern as they jogged and even walked from one obstacle to the next.
The walking would not last long as Marines stationed at every obstacle yelled at participants like drill sergeants at boot camp.
"Move faster, move faster," they would yell out as if hoping the teams would tire of their abuse and push on.
Many of the Marines stationed along the course said they had never competed in the mud run but would have liked to. I can imagine this course is right up their alley considering many of the obstacles were inspired by Marines. Obstacles such as Hell Fire Valley, The Ho Chi Minh Trail and Bunker Hill were inspired by famous Marine battles in history.
All 31 points along the course looked difficult no matter their inspiration. After the race, when asked which obstacle was the hardest, the same answer never was given twice. The course was physically exhausting.
As if the course wasn't muddy enough, Mother Nature chimed in and dumped rain on the event throughout the day soaking even the driest portions of the course. By the end of the race, people were covered in mud.
Mud was everywhere, soaked into shirts, settled into shoes and in every orifice imaginable. Even after showers, many could be seen cleaning out their ears. It was thick and sticky but worst of all -- it was smelly.
"It smelled like poop," Abby Caputo, of Summerville, said after the race.
Not only was the mud all over the participants, it was all over the obstacles as well. Everything was slippery and hard to climb towards the end of the day. Obstacles that were hard in the morning became almost impassable by the afternoon.
The only relief was the brief rain showers that washed some of the mud away.
The Finish Line
Some raced to win while others raced to complete. As many completed the last obstacle on the course, the exhaustion left their faces. All the trials and tribulations the course threw at them seemed worth it as they crossed the finish line and flashed a gritty smile.
Sure they were a little worse for wear -- scraped, bruised and sore -- but they had reached their goal.
Many posed for pictures, others talked about their experiences on the course and still others watched as friends crossed the finish line but they all took a shower. Nobody was a stranger in the mass shower stall and no one cared either. People peeled of their mud covered clothing and did their best to wash all the mud off their bodies.
A large dumpster sat next the showers filled with garments and shoes no one was going to attempt to clean.
Though tired and sore, many were in high spirits and ready for the next race scheduled for Oct. 15.
Soaring in popularity, adventure races are popping up all over South Carolina. Even the mud run has had to expand its schedule to accommodate all of the participants. Are you ready to get down and dirty, watch the video from the mud run.
As a child, we were always scolded for jumping into a puddle of water -- watch out mom, this October I am jumping into a puddle of mud.

U.S. health care ranks lowNovember 21,2013As they go about their various efforts to undermine the Affordable Care Act, Republicans regularly declare that the federal law is a dire threat to the best health care system on the planet.
Mind you, this is hardly the first time conservatives have had a problem with perspective. Recall that Ronald Reagan once warned Americans that if Medicare passed, you and I are going to spend our sunset years telling our children, and our childrens children, what it once was like in America when men were free.
These days, when senior care is the topic, Republicans are more likely to be found criticizing President Obama for trimming Medicare to finance the ACA.
The ACA itself, of course, is viewed as a wrecking ball aimed at a health care system that GOP leaders see as without parallel. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell calls it the finest health care system in the world. House Speaker John Boehner declares it the best health care delivery system in the world.
Its certainly the most expensive system in the world. Based on 2011 data, the U.S. spends about $8,500 a year per person on health care. Switzerland and Norway both expend about $5,700, the Netherlands about $5,000. In 2011, France spent less than half of what we did, or about $4,100 per capita, while Sweden clocked in at about $4,000.
Given our per-person costs, it shouldnt come as a surprise that, even without universal coverage, the U.S. spends a larger percentage of Gross Domestic Product than other industrial democracies. Were at about 18 percent of GDP; the Netherlands, France, Germany, Canada, and Switzerland all spend between 11 and 12 percent. Norway and Sweden shell out less than 10 percent.
Ah, a skeptic or a Republican congressional leader might reply, but the U.S. system offers better care. Not so. Not in the eyes of recipients, anyway.
The latest evidence comes from public-opinion surveys that sampled at least 1,000 people in each of 11 countries, research sponsored by the nonprofit, nonpartisan Commonwealth Fund.
So which country had the largest percentage of people reporting that, because of the cost, they hadnt seen a doctor when they should have? That would be the United States, at 32 percent. Its quite a drop to the number two position, shared by the Netherlands and New Zealand, at 20 percent, or to third, shared by France and Australia, at 14 percent.
Which country had the highest percentage saying they hadnt filled a prescription or had skipped doses to save dollars? Once again, the United States, at 21 percent. No other country was even in double digits.
In light of the controversy over the ACA, here are two other interesting findings. Even among those who reported they were insured all year in the United States, 21 percent still said they had forgone a doctors appointment for cost reasons. Meanwhile, 42 percent of insured Americans said they had more than $1,000 in out-of-pocket medical expenses. Next closest? Australia, where 25 percent report spending that much.
Nor does the average American share the rosy Republican view of U.S. health care.
Only a quarter of Americans said the U.S. system worked well enough to need only minor changes, while almost half said it required fundamental changes, and another 27 percent said it should be completely rebuilt. That far outstrips the level of discontent reported in the other countries. The closest were Germany and Canada, where only 42 percent thought their systems worked relatively well; but even there, the percentages who said health care in their nation needed a complete overhaul were less than half of the U.S. figure.
Meanwhile, other data shows that U.S. life expectancy is well back in the pack of the 34 countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, behind all of western Europe.
The U.S. often thinks its health care is the best, but we really dont stack up very well when we compare ourselves to other high-income countries, notes Cathy Schoen, senior vice president at the Commonwealth Fund. We spend a lot more, our access is often worse, we face more medical debt, and our health outcomes are often worse.
The point, then, is a simple one. Yes, the ACAs roll-out has been a frustrating mess. But the idea that Obamacare will somehow ruin a uniquely stellar health care system just doesnt scan, because thats not the system we have.

Somewhere around the beginning of last week, my friends–in person, by email, on Facebook, on Twitter–began talking about the upcoming High Holidays. Big Jewish holidays, we clean and we cook. (In fact, my house is never cleaner than the day before Rosh Hashanah and the day before Pesach.) In the earlier snippets I detected (and contributed to) an undercurrent of "overwhelmed-ness." For my friends who are observant, this is the kind of year where Rosh Hashanah blends into Shabbat–which means lots and lots of food preparation, enough to last for three days. But even me, who considers herself an observant Jew, although an Orthodox Jew would argue that point, I was worrying about how I was going to manage to cook the brisket and make the matzoh balls, about whether I should just buy chicken stock and rugelach and not try to fit those items into my cooking schedule. Then there's the added problem of the tricky food allergies and fussy palates running rampant in my family. (I mean, I have NEVER liked meat, though I am not a vegetarian; my husband is a carnivore; my son and his girlfriend are vegetarians and will eat only sustainably raised fish.)
So there I was pulling recipes out of my recipe box, though I don't really need written instructions for any of this stuff. Some of them are in my mother's beautiful script; others are on stained 3×5 cards or scraps of paper. I line them up on the counter, arrange them, rearrange them. Doesn't matter. I know what I'm going to cook. It's basically the same every year, basically what my mother or grandmother served on holidays. (And come to think of it, my grandmother's Thanksgiving spread was about the same, substitute turkey for chicken.)
Then Ellen, a college roommate, who now lives in Jersusalem, and who has two older sisters, posted this on Facebook:Sweet memories, she said, familiar scents. But also, my friends around my age, those of us in the bulls eye of the Baby Boomer generation–most of us, our moms are dead. As are our dads, aunts, and uncles. We are the repository of all the Jewish recipes. And that's an awesome responsibility (awesome here meaning "daunting," not "totally cool"). Of course there are some fantastic Jewish cookbooks out there, like Jewish Holiday Cookbook by Joan Nathan. But, still, they're not my mother's recipes. When I'm cooking something, and I have a question, I can't ask my mother. I have asked my 92-year-old Uncle Max about some of his mother's recipes–and I do get answers. In fact, he even gives me measurements. However, when I try, they don't work. I'm now on year three of attempting half-sour pickles in a crock; this year they grew mold in three days.
Truth be told, I'm actually a much better cook than my mom was. I'm sure I'm a better cook than my grandmother–my father's mother who hosted most of the holidays. People talk about the smells we associate with our childhood. Her house smelled like roast chicken all year, every day. When I was really little, every Friday my Uncle Max would take my cousins and me and my sister to the shocket on Water Street, Worcester, MA's Lower East Side, as it were. He'd pick out a chicken (my mother was modern: she ordered hers from the kosher butcher, who delivered everything wrapped in butcher paper, to the side door), and the ritual slaughterer took it into a booth. So we never saw the actual throat slitting. Nor am I sure at this point if the shocket plucked the chicken or if my grandmother did that. Uncle Max would also buy the red-veined "unborn" eggs, which I found kind of gross then and I believe they're illegal to sell these days. My grandmother made lots of chicken soup. Lots.
Not being a lover of meat–in fact I did everything to avoid eating it–I can't remember the taste of my grandmother's brisket, or my mother's. My husband says that mine was the best he ever ate, and I basically use my mom's recipe, which involves covering a first-cut, fat side up, with lots of cut up veggies, thickened spiced-up canned tomatoes (or chili sauce), adding liquid for the last 2 hours (I now use micro-brewed beer; go figure), and just slow baking in a 325℉ oven for five or more hours total. The roasting pan I have is much more beautiful than anything my mom or grandmother used. (I bought it at Williams Sonoma.) I also use it to roast chicken, which can be a bit problematic when I'm serving both at the same dinner. I toss a coin. My husband said that today after a second brisket dinner that it was the best brisket he had ever had. Yay me!
One of my favorite things to make–because I know my aunt made it as well as my mother so the recipe had come down in my father's family, or been picked up when they came to America (because I don't think they had corn flakes in the shetl) is for noodle (luchen) kugle. Here goes:
1 lb of broad noodles 1/4 lb butter 1 lb cottage cheese 4 eggs 1 cup sour cream 3/4 cup milk 1/4 cup milk 1/4 cup sugar 1/3 tsp cinnamon
topping: 1/3 cup crushed con flakes, 2 tbs sugar, 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
Cook noodles. Add butter and cottage cheese; slightly beat the eggs and add them; add remaining ingredients. Pour the mixture either into two 8×8 pans or into an 8×13. Sprinkle on the topping. Bake in the oven at 350℉ for 55 minutes. Hint: I always make about twice the amount of topping and add more sugar and cinnamon. Another hint: For all of us of Ashkenazai descent who are finding themselves lactose intolerant these days, I use Lactaid cottage cheese, sour cream and milk and switch out margarine for the butter, and it's still delicious. And it looks great.
There's actually a huge emotional significance to all this, to being the ones who make the holiday meals, almost all of us without our mothers at our sides. It means we're old. Yup. I'm about the same age my grandmother was when I was little. Yes, in pictures she looks a lot older than I do now, but that's because I have face creams, good makeup, and a great hair stylist. I know how to dress. I have great shoes. It also means that we're the ones who are supposed to know stuff, and when we don't, well, there's Wikipedia, but that's not much help when it comes to family memories. Some of us have daughters at our side helping out. Some of us sons. The kids, they come and eat. They love the food. But holiday traditions change, and so, I suppose, will the recipes.
Finally, these are the brass candlesticks that my mother's grandmother brought with her from Shklov. They're over 150 years old, I'm sure. One of the sticks also doesn't fit so well into the bottom. The story is that all the girls in the family had a set, and every Friday before Shabbat they would take them apart to polish. On the Friday before they were to leave, they were in a hurry, and the pairs weren't matched up correctly. So someplace I have a distant cousin with the lopsided mis-match to one of mine. Great story. I believe it's true.
So, some things to think about. There's the comment box below. Or Facebook. Or Twitter (@wordwhacker). Let me know what you're thinking.
- What are the smells you remember best? Are there certain odors or scents you associate with holiday food?
- Do you have special recipes that have been handed down? If so, have you altered them at all?
- And food. What other food did your mother cook?
By the way: I answer nearly every comment that is left on this blog.

More movies and maths
Maths in the movies is obviously in vogue these days.
The following video comes from Triple J in Australia, and is a nice summation of how maths has been used as a tool for plot development over the years.

The return of More or Less
Betting on science, The Simpsons and how maths keeps aircraft apart — More or Less returns to BBC Radio 4 from 4.30pm on Mondays.
Among the stories featured in the latest series presented by Tim Harford will be the tax-free phenomenon of spread betting, how some scientists are making money by betting on their own theories being proven correct, and how air traffic scheduling relies on mathematics to function and bring aircraft safely into land.
Later in the series will be a round-table discussion featuring the Rt Hon Charles Clarke MP, Vince Cable MP and Fraser Nelson, political editor of The Spectator, about how numbers influence politics and policies and how they are often the most important part of the story. There will also be an exclusive interview with Al Jean, head writer and executive producer of The Simpsons and Harvard maths graduate, on his love of numbers and how to constantly get good numeracy jokes into the world's longest running sitcom.
See the More or Less website for more information.

Walter Warwick Sawyer was a mathematician and author who made a major contribution to mathematical education. He recently passed away in Canada, aged 96. He was very much concerned with the practical applications of mathematics and considered that students taught mathematics without an appreciation of its application would have no more understanding of what they were learning than a machine. His love of mathematics is seen in the title of his first book, the highly acclaimed Mathematician's Delight, whose aim was to "dispel the fear of mathematics".Read more...

Hi!I have been reading lots of things on the Tentmaker website the past few weeks and it just dawned on me today that there might me a discussion forum:)
I have been trying to find a belief system that makes sense and I am so thankful that I have found christian universalism. I am a Catholic who was attending a Calvinist church, so I have been really trying to come back to reality and get out of that hell fear. Thanks!Dee

"BART will be striking for an indefinite period of time starting Monday"
Somewhat scary for those of us trying to get into the city… good luck to everyone else in the same predicament.
"Has anyone used geminstaller to install Passenger?"
It appears not.
"EngineYard's Solo offering now has a feature called quickstart"
The Solo Linux OS image which is built to run on Amazon's EC2 apparently has a new quickstart feature that lets people drop a git repository link into their web interface and self configures things appropriately. Pretty interesting.
"RabbitMQ is a viable option for projects"
RabbitMQ has been vetted and so far has proven to be stable, fast, and reliable, despite a few things we had to iron out first. Pretty cool new technology with some good Ruby integration in the form of the amqp gem. This website had a similar experience with RabbitMQ, AMQP, and Rails.
"Rails code committers inside Pivotal now get t-shirts denoting that fact for their efforts"
Sweet ;).
