ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. (AP) -- The owners of a northeast Florida farm are facing charges after authorities seized 39 animals from their property.
The St. Johns County Sheriff's Office reports that Tammy Marie Denes and Donald Eugene Dunbar, both 40, were charged Friday with 39 counts of animal cruelty.
Authorities removed 17 cows, 11 goats, nine pigs and two horses from the property. Officials say the animals appeared to be in poor health and were confined without sufficient food, water or space.
The Florida Times-Union reports that animals were taken to another farm where they will be cared for in the custody of the sheriff's office.
Denes and Dunbar currently retain ownership of the animals, but they could lose ownership at hearing that will be held within 30 days.

The 13th of November is an important date for the monks of Norcia, it's the feast day of all the Benedictine saints who have been guided by the Rule of our Holy Father Benedict and have followed in his footsteps leaving everything behind to follow Christ. In the monastery we only have a few monks who have chosen Benedictine names: Fr. Benedict, Br. Placid and Br. Peter Damian; but we also have monks who chose their names from the holy patriarchs who inspired St. Benedict and influenced his Rule: Fr. Cassian, Fr. Basil, Br. Anthony and Br. Evagrius.
The feast day reminds us that we are still connected to our brethren in heaven; we are part of the living tradition and in many different ways, as God wills, we pass it on to our guests and pilgrims, and most importantly, to the young men who come here to seek Christ.
The date is also special for another reason; during the Conventual Mass, Br. Massimiliano Silvati from La Spezia, our first Italian vocation, and one of our most dedicated to the Ora et Labora made his Simple Profession before God, His saints, Fr. Cassian and the community. When he made his profession he chose his new name, he asked a Saint in heaven to guide him especially and to give him the strength to persevere in the monastic life. Br. Massimiliano took the name Br. Mariano, O.S.B.
Please join the monks of Norcia in celebrating this joyous occasion by praying for Br. Mariano, so that we may join our prayers to those of the Blessed Virgin Mary in strengthening and encouraging our brother to travel with perseverance along the narrow road which leads unto life.

Nelson Understands The Employment Problem, So Why Won't He Push For The Solution?
Late last year, the House passed a $154 billion jobs bill, but at the moment Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) is having trouble rounding up the votes to even begin debate on a far more modest $15 billion effort that relies heavily on tax incentives for small businesses to hire.
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) as well as Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) have cast doubt on whether or not these kind of hiring incentives can significantly reduce unemployment (and many economists think that they really can't), but remarkably, it's Sen. Ben Nelson (D-NE) who diagnosed the problem the best:
"There's a question of whether that puts the cart before the horse," said Nelson. "If I don't have enough customers for my product, hiring more people is not going to help and tax credits are not going to be to my advantage."
Nelson is exactly right. According to the latest National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) small business survey, the biggest problem affecting small businesses is "shortage of customers." And despite all the lip-service paid to boosting small business loans, only 5 percent of businesses cite "financing" as their top problem, while 31 percent point to "poor sales." "Small business owners entered 2010 the same way they left 2009, depressed," said William Dunkelberg, NFIB chief economist. "The biggest problem continues to be a shortage of customers. Don't expect much spending or hiring until these trends reverse."
So the logical step is to pursue policies that will boost demand, through immediately putting people back to work and getting funds to those most likely to spend them. As Heather Boushey wrote, "to create jobs today, we need to do much more to fill in demand by giving businesses more customers." David Madland added that "employing more people doesn't just get those workers back on the job; it affects the momentum of the economy, which ultimately creates the cycle of private sector job creation that we need."
They (and many others) have advocated new job creation efforts including fiscal aid for states, directing federal money into national service programs, and ensuring that unemployment benefits and other social safety net mechanisms aren't allowed to expire. Since Nelson seems to understand the problem, why isn't he advocating for actions along those lines? And, for that matter, why was he one of the catalysts behind a bipartisan "compromise" that cut billions of dollars of this kind of funding from the economic stimulus package?
Unfortunately, the jobs proposals before the Senate are nowhere near ambitious enough to make a significant dent in an unemployment rate that the White House has estimated will still be at 9.8 percent at year's end. And this is despite the preponderance of evidence pointing to the necessary steps.

PS4 Remote Play Coming to Sony's Z3 Phones and Tablets - NewsDaniel Carreras, posted on 04 September 2014 / 1,770 Views
In yesterday's announcement of their new Z3 line of smartphones and tablets, Sony announced that the devices will be able to play PS4 games via Remote Play.
In order to do this, users must pair a DualShock 4 controller to the phone or tablet (as Remote Play doesn't support touch screens). Once this is done, users can only play their PS4 games using their own Wi-Fi network (internet play is not supported).
Sony will also release a mount for these devices (pictured above), which will allow DualShock 4 controllers to connect to these mobile devices, essentially converting them into portable PS4 gaming platforms. No release date has been given for the attachment, but the Z3 devices will be released this November.

Pikachu (Wizards Promo 26)
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Pikachu (Japanese: ピカチュウ Pikachu) is a Lightning-type Basic Pokémon card. It was released as one of the Wizards Black Star Promos.
Card text
Pokédex data
|Pikachu - Mouse Pokémon
|1'4" (0.4 m)
|13 lbs. (6 kg)
|Pokédex entry
|It uses its sensitive tail to sense its environment and has been known to react violently if its tail is grabbed.
Release information
This card was released as a promotional card. The English version of the card was released through Pokémon card leagues in August 2001. In Japan, it was released as a Glossy Promotional card that came with Volume 1 of Pokémon Trainer's Magazine, released in May 1999.
- This card is commonly known as Snap Pikachu, due to the fact that the character image is a photo from Pokémon Snap. The Japanese print has a camera graphic where an expansion symbol would usually be to highlight this. It also shares this with 10 other Japanese promotional cards that would later be released through Pokémon Snap contests in Spring 1999.
- The Japanese print is glossy, whereas the subsequent contest promos and English print are on normal card stock.
- This is the only English Pokémon card to have "Photo." instead of "Illus." where the illustrator name is traditionally placed.
Scratch and Thunderbolt are both moves in the Pokémon games. Pikachu can learn Thunderbolt, but not Scratch. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Yellow, though it is reworded.

In The Indian Express, Pratap Bhanu Mehta on the Supreme Court's landmark judgment on reservations for the OBCs
Landmark judgments can have one of two features. They can strike an uneasy balance between competing considerations, in a sort of compromise that keeps the peace. Or they can mark out a radically new course of action. Ashok Thakur is an oddity in that, amidst all the complications of four different judgments, it manages to do both. The core orders of the Supreme Court strike a balance between two considerations. A society like India needs affirmative action. But the core question must have some rational justification: Who should be targeted, why should they be targeted and how should they be targeted? For all the brave face the government is putting up, its perfidy has been exposed. The issue was not whether affirmative action is permissible. What was grossly objectionable was that the government indiscriminately included groups that manifestly ought not to be beneficiaries. They had converted a social policy into a pure power play.
And in Mail Today, Dipankar Gupta says the judgment is a form of 'damage control'
THE Supreme Court's ruling to allow reservations for the OBCs, provided the creamy layer is kept out, is bound to hurt a large number of politicians who have made caste mobilisation their sole occupation. In my view, this judgment is more like " damage control" as the Supreme Court could not quite disallow OBC reservations, what with the Constitutional amendment making the way for it. But by excluding the creamy layer from enjoying the benefits of OBC reservations, the Supreme Court has not only damaged the prospect of a large number of powerful and wellheeled members of the OBC, but has also plunged and twisted the knife into the very body of Mandal's recommendations.
Finally, who or what exactly is the 'creamy layer'? For the answer from Mail Today click here.

Ocala seeks federal relief money for city auditorium
Published: Saturday, March 15, 2014 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 14, 2014 at 4:53 p.m.
The Ocala City Council in February 1935 began putting together plans for an expansion of Tuscawilla Park and construction of a municipal auditorium within the park.
At the same time, councilman agreed unanimously to ask for additional federal relief money to build a baseball-football complex on the old county fairgrounds.
Once plans were drawn up by city and county officials, they would be submitted to the state relief office in Tallahassee for approval of the expenditures.
A new public works program to help provide jobs nationwide was in the process of being reorganized in Washington by the Roosevelt administration, and it was uncertain how it would work.
What came out of it was the WPA — the Works Projects Administration — which was far more extensive and expensive than the program in progress at the time.
Mayor Bradford Webb was uncertain Ocala would get anything under the new program but, like others, he wanted to have everything ready to go once a signal came down from Washington.
The only real controversy over these proposed Ocala projects was the location of the city auditorium.
Downtown merchants, unable to see the future beyond their front doors, wanted the auditorium to be placed in the Civic Center, behind the Carnegie library that faced Ocklawaha Avenue (now Silver Springs Boulevard).
Parking perils
The idea of a downtown auditorium died quickly when the issue of parking was brought up in a public forum.
The only parking around the Civic Center was along Osceola on the west and Broadway on the south.
The Hoffman Hotel and the Florida Telephone buildings blocked any eastward expansion of the tiny park.
Downtown parking would not reach a crisis situation for nearly two decades in the future. In 1935, virtually all public parking was on the sides of streets.
As usual in those days, it was the Ocala/Marion County Chamber of Commerce that came up with the ideas for governmental action. At the urging of the chamber directors, the city council was asked to seek expansion of Tuscawilla Park as a first step, going north to the Seaboard railway and south within two blocks of downtown.
Scenic drive
Significant improvements already had been made to the park ponds and general landscaping under the earlier federal public works program the previous year, but there was no expansion of the actual park area.
Now, Horace Smith, the chamber spokesman, was standing before the council with a detailed map showing a new boulevard cutting through the park to create a scenic drive linking the park to the downtown commercial center.
Backing up Smith was the highly respected county engineer John E. Walker, who apparently drew up the park plan.
Walker offered to assist the city in the project.
Louis H. Chazal, a former chamber secretary, said that land for expansion would be gone within five years, devoted to other uses.
He saw the expanded park as a way to keep visitors in Ocala longer.
"Also it would be an asset to the people of Ocala," he said.
Expansion plans
Carl G. Rose pointed out it would be impossible to obtain such a large area within the city for a park.
He liked the idea of tying the park closer to the downtown area.
Councilman James J. Taylor, whose crate mill was on the west side of the park, proposed a survey of available land, and the county engineer was asked to assist City Manager E.P. Clark in making the survey.
Within a few days, Walker was back with a plat of the proposed expansion, and a cost figure of about $250,000.
He noted the city already was involved in the foreclosure of property between Sanchez and Anthony Road (now Northeast Eighth Avenue) for nonpayment of taxes.
Walker said it would be necessary for the city to condemn and remove about 10 houses.
The park area would contain roughly 100 acres, which just happened to coincide with the federally approved recreational area for a city the size of Ocala.
New priorities
As discussion of the park project continued, the city council decided to make construction of a municipal auditorium its No. 1 priority on the list of projects being sent to Tallahassee for approval by state relief officials.
It would be put ahead of a proposed new fire station for Ocala and the sports complex on the west side of Ocala.
The application for relief funds was required to spell out how the city would finance its share of the costs of these projects.
The council placed $10,000 in its budget to pay its share of the auditorium construction.
There was no money in sight for the fire station, sports complex or expansion of Tuscawilla Park.
Councilmen promised to pay the city's share of costs of these projects through the sale of revenue bonds.
Bonds seemed the safe way to go since the city was doing better in meeting is financial obligations than a great many cities in Florida were during the terrible economic depression of the 1930s.
Ocala actually had money in the bank at the beginning of 1935.
Councilmen were showing a great deal of confidence in getting the projects they placed on the federal list.
Only the fire station would fall beside the wayside.

So Ive been looking to find a nice folder for around campus use/ using it in new york city, potentially taking it on the subway. I accuired a Raleigh twenty a while back, but it isnt quite working out. I love the aesthetic of the Raleigh, but it is much too heavy and it has too poor of a fold to comfortably go on a train/ into class with me. So I was hoping for a reccomendation:
-Hopefully larger than 16" wheels
-Not too heavy
-Lets say sub $500 for now; unless you are AMAZING at convincing people.
Most of the folders Ive looked at Ive LOVED but are sadly out of my pricerange. I wish I already had a bike, then I would put in the work to fix up the Twenty, but for now, I need something more immediate. Thanks!

75% of Smartphones and 66% of Tablets Used at Work are Employee Owned [Study]
Is BYOD an emerging trend? No. Apparently, it's already here.
According to new data from Forrester Research, 73% of smartphones being used at work are bought and owned by employees. And the same can be said for 66% of tablets. Surveying almost 10,000 workers across 17 countries, the findings revealed that half of laptops are also employee-owned.
But with this Bring Your Own Device trend seems to come perhaps too many net devices. Forrester says that three-quarters of workers wield two or more devices and over half wield three or more.

Identifying Voters
October 2, 2012 - Joselyn King
Anybody out there remember the line in the Breakfast Club in which the teenage Anthony Michael Hall character admits to having a fake ID -- just so he could vote?
I do admire his youthful enthusiasm for the electoral process, but it leads me to ask a simple question: Is is such a wrong thing to ask a voter for their identification before they cast a ballot?
Shouldn't it be incumbent upon the government administering the election to assure the voter is in fact who they say they are, that they are eligible to vote and live in the community at hand?
A Pennsylvania court this week delayed that state's new law requiring voters show identification ID requirement from taking effect this election. The judge involved said he wasn't sure the state had made it possible for voters to easily get IDs before Nov. 6.
Certainly, the government needs to make identification cards available to potential voters.
But I also hope the judge's ruling doesn't mean government workers are physically going to have to go to the homes of every person without a car or driver's license just to see if they need and identification for the purposes of voting. (Maybe I shouldn't say that. It could give some lawmaker an idea.)
The very validity of our voting system is what keeps democracy alive. It also requires the active participation of those involved and living and contributing to their communities.
Unfortunately, voting is a responsibility of which not every American takes advantage.
Likewise, paying taxes, filing income tax returns and applying for identification are responsibilities we all should do. It's called being an adult.
While West Virginia requires no identification at the polls, Ohio does. Acceptable forms of identification accepted by Ohio pollworkers include drivers licenses, military identification, utility bills with the voter's name and current address, or a paycheck or a government check made out in the voter's name.
If someone is living off the grid of society so far they have none of these items, do we really want them voting in an election?
If someone isn't motivated enough to make the effort to register to vote -- much less get the necessary ID if they don't have a driver's license -- again, do we really want them voting?

Yes, the movie is as funny, outrageous and genre-deconstructing as many critics had promised, and well worth waiting for. But Sami Raimi's "Drag Me to Hell" also played like gangbusters to this crowd. Is it too smart to be a hit? Lionsgate knows how to handle a movie like this, which allows the audience to enjoy its sexy, exploitative, subversive E-ride through horror monsters past (and some demented new creations as well) as it sends up all the cliches of the genre.
The archetypes are there: the athletic hunk, the blonde slut, the brainy academic, the pot head joker and the brunette virgin. Who gets killed off first? Who survives? Bradley Whitford and Richard Jenkins are part of a mad-scientist plot orchestrating the situation from afar. What the hell is going on? Whedon and co-writer and director Drew Goddard begged us all not to give too much away.
At the Q and A, Whedon said he and Goddard wrote together holed up in a cabin in the woods, basically, to write their fantasy horror send-up, 15 pages each a day, in three days of fevered creation that was joyous and fun. "It was not easy escept that it was the easiest thing I've ever done," said Whedon. "Clearly on one level it's about being a writer. We picked these two guys to be us, manipulating people. Write what you know." The movie itself "was hard to make, actually."
Goddard insists that the movie "comes from a place of love...and 'fuck it.' If we could do what we wanted to do, we prayed somebody would let us make it. We just enjoyed doing it. It seems to have worked out."
Next up was a screening packed with acquisitions executives of the slapstick comedy "The Babymakers," based on a promising premise of a guy with lazy sperm who wants to get back his once-potent donations to a sperm bank so he can impregnate his wife. Well, Paul Schneider is a gifted and likable actor and even though the movie was badly executed and reaction was tepid, someone will buy it.

Treatments for glaucoma, including glaucoma lasers, are aimed at lowering the eye pressure (intraocular pressure) in order to prevent damage to your optic nerve. Unfortunately, treatment cannot repair any damage or reverse any visual loss that may have already occurred. Regular
monitoring and subsequent early detection and treatment are therefore vital for the prevention of
blindness from optic nerve damage.
(Image adapted from the internet)
The aim of treatment is to lower the eye pressure in order to prevent further worsening of the visual field. The tunnel vision effect from advanced peripheral field loss is well demonstrated in the example above.
How much lowering of eye pressure is required depends on how severe the optic nerve damage is. In general, normal eye pressure ranges from 8 to 21 millimeters mercury (mmHg). Ophthalmologists tend to start treatment if the pressure exceeds 30 mmHg. The ideal intraocular pressure level for most glaucoma patients is 14 mmHg or lower.
There are 3 main types of glaucoma laser treatments that are used to reduce intraocular pressure: argon laser trabeculoplasty, selective laser trabeculoplasty and cyclodiode ciliary ablation. These glaucoma laser treatments are considered minor procedures, and you should recover from them relatively quickly.
These work by either stimulating outflow of aqueous humor (the natural fluid in the eye) through the trabecular meshwork or by reducing aqueous production from the ciliary body. Although successful in lowering the intraocular pressure, they may need to be repeated. You may still need to use glaucoma eye
drops in the long-term after laser treatment in order to maintain low eye pressures. Sometimes, even though the laser has been successful in bringing the intraocular pressure down, glaucoma surgery is still required to lower the pressure even more to further reduce the risk of deterioration from glaucoma. However, as surgery is associated with complications, it should only be performed after careful assessment of its risks and benefits.
Anesthetic eye drops are usually sufficient to numb the eyes for glaucoma laser treatment although sometimes you may need an anesthetic injection. A special contact lens is placed on your eye while you are seated at the slit lamp. A targeting beam is then aimed at the structures that require lasering via the contact lens. The whole process often takes no more than 15 minutes to perform. These treatments are done on an outpatient basis.
Argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT) is a laser that acts on the trabecular meshwork of the eye. It acts by stimulating the trabecular meshwork cells to increase drainage of aqueous fluid out of the eye. ALT is most commonly used for glaucoma patients with pigmented open angles. The main complications after ALT are due to the high energy used; these include inflammation of the eye, raised intraocular pressure and scarring of the drainage angle. As the potential damage and scarring to adjacent tissues can be permanent, it is not recommended that ALT be used more than twice.
Argon laser trabeculoplasty involves the placement of high-energy laser burns at the trabecular meshwork. Doing this increases the drainage of aqueous through the meshwork and out of the eyeball. Although ALT has been around for several decades, the exact mechanism of how it works is still unclear.
Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) also works by stimulating the trabecular meshwork to drain aqueous fluid out of the eye. Selective laser trabeculoplasty is most commonly used in open angle glaucoma, including those with less pigmented angles. It is similar to argon laser trabeculoplasty in terms of how it works, but the main difference is that the energy level used is much less and so there is minimal (if any) damage to surrounding cells and minimal scarring of the drainage angle.
Therefore, in contrast to ALT, SLT is a laser procedure that can be repeated more than once. However, complications after selective laser trabeculoplasty do occur, and these include inflammation of the eye and raised intraocular pressure, both of which are usually short-term. Both ALT and SLT are equally effective when compared to eye drops and to each other in lowering eye pressure.
Treatment repeatability is not the only difference between ALT and SLT. In ALT, the treatment spot size is smaller (50µm) with large gaps in between (white arrowhead; left). In SLT, the laser spot size is larger (400 µm) with no gaps in between (white arrow; right).
Cyclodiode ciliary ablation is the most destructive of the 3 procedures. This glaucoma laser treatment acts on the ciliary body and destroys it. This reduces the amount of aqueous produced and lowers the intraocular pressure. As it can be painful, the procedure is usually performed after your eye is numbed with an anesthetic injection. Unlike laser trabeculoplasty, cyclodiode ablation is performed without the need for a slit lamp or contact lens. Due to its destructive nature, it is generally reserved for eyes that already have poor vision and/or are painful due to high eye pressures, although exceptions do occur. The commonest complications after treatment are persistent inflammation and low eye pressure.
In cyclodiode ciliary ablation, no contact lens is used. The laser probe is placed on the sclera directly opposite where the ciliary body is located. The emitted laser is converted into heat energy which burns and destroys the ciliary body cells. This is performed over 360 degrees around the entire ciliary body.
There are 2 main types of glaucoma laser treatments that are used to widen the anterior chamber drainage angle for angle
closure glaucoma: YAG laser peripheral iridotomy and argon laser peripheral iridoplasty. Widening of the anterior chamber drainage angle allows better outflow of aqueous from the eye and therefore also helps to lower the intraocular pressure. However, you may still need to use eye drops in the long-term to maintain your eye pressures at a low level. These types of glaucoma laser treatments are also considered minor procedures and you should recover from them relatively quickly.
As with laser trabeculoplasty, anesthetic eye drops are usually sufficient to numb the eyes for these glaucoma laser treatments although sometimes an anesthetic injection may be required. A special contact lens is placed on your eye while you are seated at the slit lamp. The laser beam is then targeted at the structures that require lasering via the contact lens. The whole process often takes no more than 15 minutes to perform. Laser treatments are done on an outpatient basis.
YAG laser peripheral iridotomy (YAG PI) literally means the creation of a hole in the periphery of the iris with the YAG laser. This hole forms a new drainage channel through the top of your iris. This allows aqueous fluid to drain through this channel, widens the drainage angle, and lowers the eye pressure as well. Laser PI is the first line laser treatment for angle closure. It is important for the prevention of acute angle closure glaucoma in those who are at risk.
Laser peripheral iridotomy is a very safe and effective procedure. It has a 75% success rate of widening the drainage angle. The main complications after laser are inflammation, mild bleeding in the eye and cataract. Sometimes you may experience visual disturbance and glare, particularly if the iridotomy hole is not fully covered by the upper eyelid.
Argon laser peripheral iridoplasty widens the drainage angle by shrinking the peripheral iris tissue. It is commonly used in cases where laser iridotomy had been performed but was unsuccessful in opening up the drainage angle. As more laser shots are required, it is more uncomfortable than a laser iridotomy. Taking some painkillers beforehand can help to take the edge away during glaucoma laser treatment. Occasionally, anesthetic injections may even be required. The main complications after laser are a distorted pupil (which may never return to its original shape but should not affect the vision) and persistent inflammation.
Instead of the creation of only 1 hole (or 2 at most) at the top part of the iris (as with a peripheral iridotomy), laser peripheral iridoplasty involves applying laser throughout the iris periphery over 360 degrees. Each laser spot size is around 500 µm. If the drainage angles do not widen despite multiple iridoplasty treatments, then the next step would be to undergo surgery.

How time flies ... Joomla! is one year old today. With more than 2.5 million downloads, over 50 thousand members and fast approaching half a million posts — Joomla! has much to celebrate. The one most telling factor in all this is the monthly data transfer is currently hovering at around 1.8 terrabytes. To put this into perspective, we reported data usage of one terrabyte in May. Astounding growth.
The core team wants to take this opportunity to thank the many who have supported the project with their skills, support and donations.
"There is no doubt the project, born from difficult times with the Mambo split, has both matured and grown," said 'interim' project lead Johan Janssens. "The milestones we have created this year include a more robust set of systems; hosting supported by Rochen, the Simple Machines Forums, Developer support through VA Software and, of course the amazingly successful Extension site."
Johan said the momentum created by the team, developers and the community since Sept 01, 2005, had ensured Joomla! a bright and prosperous future. "We saw baby Joomla! born exactly 12-months ago and how 'he' has matured in what seems a blink. During this time of evolution, we have been working hard on the next generation Joomla! — to be called version 1.5 — which will be more powerful than anything before."

Leaving Home
My Journey to Guyana
After five or six iterations of packing and reweighing, I finally had it set and made my way up to Boston to begin my adventure. I chose Guyana since I knew that 80% was unaltered rainforest and savannah as well as the fact that the country was only beginning to understand the opportunities for eco-tourism and not quite yet a tourist destination. In other words - unspoiled! Plus I had recently visited Brazil in search of a jaguar and giant anteater but I wasn't fortunate to see either. I was hoping Guyana would provide me this opportunity! Although in Brazil seeing a tamandua (lesser Anteater) in a tree was quite the accomplishment!
I also knew that I was cutting it close for arrival in Georgetown to make the flight to Kaieteur Falls the next morning. But that was my planning and I had already come to terms that I may not make it to the falls. After a slight delay in Boston, I arrived at JFK in New York for my connection to Georgetown, Guyana. Luckily, the delay had no impact as my flight to Georgetown wasn't until 1:30am. I had a tough time staying awake in the airport and in hindsight should have driven directly to JFK as it is about a 3 hour drive from my home. But since I was there, I had a pleasant dinner and forced myself to stay awake for the early morning flight.

I'm thinking Purdue, Harvard, Gonzaga, Memphis or St. Louis
The Southern Miss game would be very, very cool, but I will be rooting for both teams, so I'd almost rather not see that.
I voted Purdue. I want to see why all the prognosticators were in love with the B1G.

A lucky person in Palo Cedro is now $54,905 richer.
The Holiday Market in Palo Cedro sold the winning ticket to an unnamed person on Saturday.
Workers are excited but are wondering who won the money.
"We're all excited because it's just awesome," said Holiday Market cashier Patience Preston. "I've been here for almost 20 years and we've never had that big of a sale."
She said there are a bunch of regulars who she hopes were the winner.
The store has seen a similar winner a few years ago when someone pulled a $10,000 winning scratch ticket from their machine.
Like any lottery winner, the Holiday Market does get a cut of the winnings but it's not much. The store will receive just $273 for selling a winner or just 0.5% of the total jackpot.

Moberly notes, though, that Edward Snowden exposed a program used to prevent terrorist attacks. .
Moberly says Snowden could be prosecuted under the Espionage Act.

this would make a great t-shirt!
I love anything with typography in the shape of states/cities...
great work..well done!
love it, but Roslindale, West Roxbury and Hyde Park are all left out. All are neighborhoods that would have been on the left, did the composition just not work?
