|New faces welcomed to Wauneta Breeze staff
|Written by Wauneta Breeze

By Lori Pankonin
Johnson Publications, Inc.
Wauneta Breeze staff includes some new faces these days with the addition of Sheri Hink, Amy Straub and Diane Stamm.
Hink began training for the managing editor position a month ago, thrilled with the opportunity to move back "home" to Chase County, having grown up in Champion. Straub came on board in November as a staff reporter. Stamm began covering sports in December, following Carl Williams who filled in with fall sports coverage.
Co-publishers Russ and Lori Pankonin have appreciated Tina Kitt's commitment with managing editor responsibilities despite her desire to back down from that position.
Kitt, who started at the Breeze in 1997 when the Pankonins moved from Wauneta, said she had the ideal job covering school and community activities while her kids, Kyle, Ashley and John, were in school. Once they were gone from home, she was ready for more time to help her husband, Keenan, on the farm and to focus on her extended family, many of whom live outside the area.
She moved to part time reporting and layout when Josh Sumner served as editor for a year and has remained dedicated to keeping the Breeze alive until another editor could be found. Kitt's name is familiar in newspaper circles across the state from the award success garnered by the Breeze each year.
Sheri Hink
Hink is excited to get reacquainted with the people of Wauneta and to serve the community in her new role.
Before returning, Hink worked for the Nebraska Community Foundation (NCF) in Lincoln. Lori Pankonin serves on the NCF state board and it was by chance that she learned that Hink had an interest in moving back to southwest Nebraska.
Ironically, Hink has fond childhood memories of Wauneta where she spent her summers. Her mother, Elaine Hink, was Heritage of Wauneta administrator for 17-plus years. Sheri helped with resident activities in the mornings and went to the pool in the afternoon, recalling how the high dive made it the preferred pool in the area for her.
After graduating from Chase County High School in 1995, she obtained her bachelor's degree at the University of Nebraska in Kearney with a major in sociology and minor in women's studies.
She served 20 counties in southwest Nebraska in the Green Thumb program, now known as Experience Works. Thinking she wanted to get out of Nebraska, she went to Illinois to graduate school. She soon learned that she is a true Nebraskan and was happy when a fellowship program within her education took her to NCF in Lincoln.
Upon completing her fellowship she was hired by NCF, eventually finishing her thesis and obtaining her master's degree in sociology with an emphasis in community and economic development.
Although Hink's background is not in newspapers, Pankonin has witnessed her leadership roles at NCF where she had a positive outlook and great way of connecting with people. She served as the webmaster and graphic designer, created the newsletter, organized events and training sessions, and took on the multitude of challenges that came her way.
Hink brings family to Wauneta. She and her fiancé, Brad Wagner who is a Lincoln native, are raising his 2-year-old grandson, Ty Wagner, and they have a 3-month-old son, Leo Hink-Wagner. Wagner works at Regier Equipment in Madrid.
After a month on the job, Hink said, "I am ecstatic about it." She realizes how much she has missed rural life and the sense of community where you know people and people know you. She realizes she's on the learning curve again, which is a change from more recently being considered the go-to person.
She has aspirations of getting involved with the Wauneta Chamber and possibly the Wauneta Community Foundation Fund, which is an affiliate of the Nebraska Community Foundation.
Amy Straub
Straub currently covers news stories across the community, especially those concerning the school.
Straub and her husband of 19 years, Robert, and four sons, Kaleb, Billy, Seth and Kaden, moved to Wauneta from Wyoming three years ago and currently live in Palisade. Along with his brother, Robert (a McCook native) inherited the farm of his aunt and uncle, Norma and Gerold Bodeman, which brought them here. He also drives truck for Seeker Farms out of Trenton.
Straub grew up in Buffalo, Wyo. Besides raising the boys, she served as a para educator for eight years in the resource room in a K-12 school in Kaycee, Wyo., also doing some substitute teaching.
After moving, she attended classes in McCook and Imperial, obtaining an associate of arts degree from McCook Community College.
Newspaper work is also new to her, but she is enjoying the challenges and said she is continually learning. Her reporting role includes photography and she is involved in page layout.
Diane Stamm
Stamm shoots pictures and writes sports coverage at various Wauneta-Palisade sporting events.
Stamm actually wrote sports for a month for Wauneta-Palisade when she was expecting their 6-year-old and has stayed home to raise their daughter and son. Rather than finding her in the office, she's more likely to be seen at ball games and submits stories and photos from home south of Imperial.
She realizes how much she has missed sports involvement, declaring herself a sports nut, and is finding herself getting attached to the kids and teams.
As Diane Harding, she was on the Cambridge state basketball champion team her senior year in 1993, the first of three consecutive years that Cambridge girls earned that honor.
After high school, she attended college in Chadron, then transferred to Kearney where she earned her bachelor's degree in fitness & leisure management.
She worked for Cornhusker State Games in Lincoln before moving to McCook as the program director of the YMCA. She also wrote sports stories for the McCook Daily Gazette.
She and her husband, Jed, a Benkelman native, have two children, Katelyn and Caleb. She also works as an aide at Rainbow Promise Preschool in Imperial where their son attends. Jed works at Ag Business Specialists in Imperial where he and his partner provide commodity trading and crop insurance services to area farmers.
The Pankonins are happy with staff progress at the Breeze and also continue to appreciate Susan Jones and Berneta Steinert who have remained loyal since the Breeze was purchased by Johnson Publications in 1982.
Kitt has helped with staff transition but will be moving out of the weekly newspaper schedule to focus on a special edition recognizing the Breeze's 125th anniversary.

The idea for paper cross patterns came about while I was illustrating easter egg patterns for another website. I became curious over the many variations of crosses, usually Christian, that I'd been finding here and there.
Upon investigation, I found 150 distinctly different, historic variations for this holy icon. Given the holy wars of yore one can only imagine what the differences each cross design represented and the power factions behind the flags and banners of power. Each cross image comes with a brief historic sentence along with a physical description and a link where to find more information.
The purpose of Paper Crosses site is to provide craft patterns for creating handmade Christmas ornaments, cross stitch needlepoint and other ornamental decorations for holidays and special occasions.
since 03/25/2004, paper crosses offers craft patterns of many types, shapes and sizes. All of the cross images in this site are unique and personally illustrated. Most of the patterns are of common and easily recognized symbols of faith but others are versions of somewhat obscure historic and and unusual designs. Each image is presented in outline, coloring book style for children to enjoy decorating for class or holiday entertaining. Also provided are large pre-colored cross images that may be used as clip art for non-profit and personal publications or educational purposes.
In addition to all the large cross and heraldic shield patterns, I thought it would be fun to repurpose or recycle the great thumbnail images I've made by creating fun web page background images that can be used as printable gift wrap. If you're ever roped into a last minute gift giving session at the office get that gift wrapped in a hurry using your own home or office printer.

This unique SynerG Formula 8.5 lightly exfoliates without over drying, preparing the skin for optimal treat- ment benefits. Polyhydroxy Acids, including Gluconolactone and Maltobionic Acid, stimulate cell turn- over and remove debris from pores, enhancing skin texture and clarity. Gluconolactone also acts as a metal chelator, trapping damaging oxidation promoting metals such as iron.
This soap-free foaming cleanser effectively removes oil and makeup. Patented Maltobionic Acid leaves the skin feeling hydrated, while a botanical complex of aloe, chamo- mile, cucumber and rosemary extracts soothes and refreshes. The skin acid mantle is normalized and pH balance is restored
This is very smooth and creamy and does not leave my face dry and tight. I am not sure how it is doing in terms of cell turn over (not a scientist). But I like that it is fragrance free. I do think my skin looks a little better even after only a few weeks. I like it better than the Murad Essential C cleanser
I have been using the SkinActive line for about 4 months. I am devoted to this product line because it WORKS. People that I haven't seen in months have commented how great my skin looks. My skin has always been difficult to manage - combination skin, large pores, hyperpigmentation from too much sun - and at 44, the signs of obvious skin aging. This product cleans my skin without drying or leaving residue. It just feels clean and looks clean. My acne has cleared up, and my pores look smaller and my skin tone doesn't look dull any more. I love the day time sun block and the night cream that goes with this regimen too. I'm so glad that FINALLY I've found a system that works.
Apply to wet skin, massaging gently to cover the entire face. Rinse thoroughly with water. Use twice daily.

ENNISKILLEN, Northern Ireland — President Obama and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, failed Monday to resolve their differences over how to bring about an end to Syria's civil war, as each leader steps up military support for opposite sides in the worsening conflict.
Meeting for two hours on the sidelines of the Group of Eight (G-8) summit, Obama and Putin discussed shared economic interests, the recent Iranian election and global security issues that have put the leaders at odds in the past.
Syria's civil war was chief among them. Sitting side by side, Obama and Putin each indicated they still disagree over the preferred outcome of the war, including on the future of President Bashar Assad and the goals of the armed rebellion.
"Our opinions do not coincide," Putin said. "But all of us have the intention to stop the violence in Syria."

Obama, speaking next, confirmed "we do have differing perspectives" on the war and how to resolve it through negotiations that have yet to take shape.
Obama has demanded that Assad relinquish power as part of any negotiated peace settlement, a condition Putin rejects.
Russia is Assad's principal weapons supplier, and the Obama administration is about to begin arming rebels on the other side of the conflict that has killed 93,000 people over the past two years, according to U.N. estimates.
On Monday, Assad warned the West not to arm Syria's insurgency or attempt to provide a no-fly zone to protect rebel-held areas of the country. He told a German newspaper that if weapons were furnished to the insurgents, "Europe's backyard will become terrorist and Europe will pay the price." He also denied the increasingly emphatic assertions by Western powers that his government has used deadly sarin nerve gas in the conflict.
Assad's remarks were published on the website of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
Little is known about some of the groups fighting Assad. There have been reports, supported by video, of atrocities carried out by some rebel factions.
France and Britain, though, successfully sought to lift an European embargo on arms deliveries to the rebels. Obama, after months of deliberation, has decided to supply light weapons and ammunition to opposition forces.
But Putin warned that the move was dangerous, saying after a meeting Sunday with British Prime Minister David Cameron that arming the rebels "has little relation to humanitarian values that have been preached in Europe for hundreds of years."
Western diplomats had given Obama little chance of changing Putin's opinion on Syria here. But his inability to do so still posed an early setback for Obama on a three-day swing through Europe, his first to the continent since 2011.
This time he is facing rising skepticism in Europe over his expansion of drone warfare, recent disclosures about the National Security Agency's (NSA) vast data-collecting efforts, and his delay in more aggressively supporting Syria's beleaguered rebel forces.
Obama began meeting Monday with G-8 leaders, hoping to mend fences and achieve a broader international consensus on how to improve the lagging global economy.
Hours before the summit, Obama and European leaders announced the start of negotiations to forge a new trade agreement between the United States and the 27-nation European bloc.
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership would create what Cameron called "the biggest bilateral trade deal in history," although talks are expected to be complicated despite urgency on both sides of the Atlantic to boost economic growth. The first round of negotiations will be held next month in Washington.
"There are going to be sensitivities on both sides, there are going to be politics on both sides," Obama said. "But I'm confident we can get it done."

Kandi Burruss
Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker Take a Short Honeymoon — Where Are They Going? (PHOTO)
When one half of your couple is a music mogul and the other is a in-demand TV producer, the chances that you can slip away for a full-length honeymoon post-nuptials. That's the case for Real Housewives of Atlanta's Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker, who tied the knot on April 4. However, this adorable duo is at least carving out a little time for a quick getaway to celebrate their love!
"Weekend getaway with my hubby @todd167!!!" Kandi captioned an adorable pic of herself and her new hubby on an airplane on April 10. Looking great, you two!
Fans wondered last week why Kandi and Todd didn't immediately jet off for a romantic vacay after making things official. The RHoA star took to Instagram to answer her followers, clarifying that Todd had to leave Atlanta the very next day to head to L.A. and help set up a show that his company is producing. She did, however, tease the "quick getaway" the two would take this weekend.
But where could these two be going? If it's just for a weekend, we can't imagine it's anywhere too exotic. Perhaps just a quick hop over to Miami for a day or two on the beach? Or maybe they will stop in Palm Springs for a little Coachella action… though, OK, that's not really honeymoon material.
Where do you think Kandi and Todd are (briefly) honeymooning?

Re: top 5 Heavy/Achievement
Fair enough,
I concede that Lewis has a MUCH more solid record on paper than little Floyd. But the story doesnt quite end there. After all there are lies, damn lies etc...
I think a closer ****ysis of their two careers brings them somewhat closer together than others on the forum would have it. I am writing this because LL is considered top5 or even 3, whereas Patterson struggles to make top20. I dont think this is reasonable.
I wanted to align Pattersons 2 most notable losses with Lewis's two losses as a stand alone comparison. I think that Pattersons are MUCH more excusable given the opposition. There is no comparison between 1962/63 Liston and McCall and Rahman.
Also, Johansson was a known banger and that particular loss was avenged twice. The first vengeance including the supreme left hook of twitching foot fame. Surely one of the greatest return match comebacks ever?
Two other losses came to '65 and '72 Ali who beats everyone else in the top10 save arguably Frazier and Louis? I mean, what would have happened if LL had faced both '65 and '72 Ali, seven years apart in his career (say '92 and '99)?
As for the Maxim loss, it was highly debatable. ALL ELEVEN newspaper correpondents scored the fight for 19 year old Patterson. Interesting to compare this to Lewis's fight with Mercer, which could easily have been scored in Mercers favour although I know that it wasnt...
Of course Patterson has two more less excusable (points) losses to Quarry and Ellis. But then again, LL never faced the 3 top guys in his era when it mattered, the early 90s. I would bet he would rake up at least 1 more loss against those 3, and if he faced each twice. hmmmm - maybe a couple more losses.
Come on fellas, give little Floyd some more respect.
Four of his fights were '62 Liston, '63 Liston, '65 Ali and '72 Ali. How many other TOP20 HWs would score 0-4 against that lineup? A lot!

Marciano did not fight two of them--Valdes and Baker. He fought five--Walcott, LaStarza, Charles, ****ell, and Moore--in title defenses. The eight, Layne, he had knocked out in 1951 and Layne lost to LaStarza and Charles in 1953 and thus lost his high ranking.
On Patterson--After all, the blowouts by Liston are not his only defeats. He was also blown out by Johansson in their first fight and beaten badly by Ali. He was also edged by Maxim, Quarry, and Ellis. It was not like he was totally dominant other than for Liston.
Lewis was dominant other than his two defeats.

Valdosta, GA - As a junior, Marti Littlefield made great strides on defense and continued her offensive prowess, finishing the year hitting .380. The work paid off as she earned her second All-American nod in three seasons.
Littlefield was named to the National Fastpitch Coaches' Association's All-American Team. She made the second team and was the only shortstop from the south region. Littlefield was one of eight players from the region and one of just four players from the Gulf South Conference, two of which were third team. She was one of 11 players to make their second appearance on the All-American squad as she was named to the 2009 third team her freshman season.
Littlefield turned in an excellent junior year. In addition to hitting .380 in 158 at bats, she knocked a team high 60 hits, 16 doubles, a triple, five home runs and 31 RBI. She scored 38 runs (second on the team) and in 52 games for Valdosta State in her third consecutive season to be named to the All-GSC First Team.
This year, Littlefield also took great strides in her defensive play. After averaging just over 26 errors her first two seasons, she finished 2011 with just seven errors for a .952 fielding percentage. Littlefield also joined Natalia Morozova, April Hutchens and Morgan Johnson as the only Blazers to start every game in 2011.
Littlefield's honor this season makes it six consecutive seasons that Valdosta State Softball boasts an All-American.
As a senior, Littlefield will look for another great season in 2012.

|Natalie Kenly, AKA "Natty Baby," was the "Official 2010 Chronic Girl" for Cali Chronic X magazine.
Kenly, a graphic designer and former cheerleader also known as "Natty Baby," was recently featured on the cover of the magazine posing with a bong, reports X17.
Sheen first showed off his new girlfriend on Monday while doing an educational video for "at-risk kids" for his pal Todd Zeile's foundation, L.I.F.E.
Sheen, 45, was photographed smooching Kenly, who recently dyed her hair blonde.
According to Radar Online, Kenly, who was reared in the Sherman Oaks area of Los Angeles, was arrested in 2006 for underage drinking in Lake Havasu, Arizona.
Charlie began to pursue Natalie a few months ago after seeing her on the cover of Cali Chronic X's February 2010 issue, co-editor Jeffrey Peterson told TMZ.
According to TMZ, the couple eventually connected through a mutual friend, and the two hit it off.
When Sheen and Kenly were seen smooching on Tuesday, the Two And A Half Men star wasn't very interested in sharing her identity with the world, telling reporters, according to the The Huffington Post, "None of your fucking business" when asked who she was.

Toyota Motor Corp said it will recall 2.77 million vehicles worldwide, including some of its popular Prius hybrid cars, for steering and water pump problems in the carmakers second multimillion-vehicle recall in a little over a month.
The defects, which Toyota said had caused no accidents and could each be fixed in an hour or so, could cost hundreds of millions of dollars to repair, according to Deutsche Securities auto analyst Kurt Sanger.
While the recall is widespread, the flaws are less serious and any damage to Toyotas reputation would likely be limited compared with massive recalls in 2009 to 2011 when unintended acceleration problems in Toyota vehicles were the suspected cause of fatal crashes in the United States.
Toyota this year recaptured the crown of the worlds top automaker after last years natural disasters, which temporarily disrupted production in Japan and Thailand, had knocked it from the top spot in 2011.
Toyota is recalling 2.76 million vehicles worldwide to fix a steering component that could be damaged by wear and tear, and 630,000 gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles to replace water pumps, company spokesman Joichi Tachikawa said. Many vehicles are targeted by both recalls, resulting in overlap.
Deutsche Securities analyst Sanger said the extent of the recall suggested a more aggressive stance by the company to address defects after its recall crisis a few years ago.
They seem to continue to be obsessively monitoring these things and looking for potential problems before they arise, Sanger said.
Toyota gave no indication of the likely cost of the latest recall, but Sanger estimated that, including parts and labour, it could amount to 30 b i llion to 40 billion yen ($380-500 million).
Thats a decent range of financial impact, we assume. There doesnt seem to be much brand risk around this, given that there havent been injuries and excessive complaining leading up to the product action and recall.
Toyota has faced a long battle to restore its image since problems with unintended acceleration in its vehicles led to a series of recalls of more than 10 million vehicles worldwide from 2009 to 2011, damaging its reputation for quality.
Discussion of the companys quality issues re-emerged with last months recall of more than 7.4 million vehicles to fix power window switches, the industrys biggest single recall since Ford Motor Co took 8 million vehicles off the road in 1996.
Two weeks later, Tokai Rika, a supplier of auto parts to Toyota, booked an extraordinary loss

WHITE SWAN, Yakima County — Nine black bears have made themselves at home in Fort Simcoe State Park this summer, but they haven't taken kindly to people trying to take their pictures.
When the bears began aggressively warning people to back off, park officials shut down the facility before anyone got hurt, said ranger Alaric Barney.
"They'll stomp on the ground to threaten that they want space; they'll growl," Barney said.
Bears are often seen in the 200-acre park, nestled in the Cascade foothills on the Yakama Nation Reservation, along with elk, deer and bobcats. But this is the first time they've shown such aggressive defensive behavior, Barney said.

"The problem right now is there is mating going on. They are fighting with each other, trying to harass the cubs, and the females are very protective of the cubs," said Toni Droscher. "It's really an important public-safety issue. Bears are nothing to mess with."
Before park officials closed the park last Saturday, they tried warning people to stay away from the bears, which like to hang out around fruit trees in the park's most popular areas, near its interpretive center and group campsite.
"People were getting too close to take pictures with their cellphone cameras," Barney said. "We were afraid that people wouldn't leave the bears alone."
In an unprecedented move at Fort Simcoe, park officials shut down the entire park and brought in wildlife agents from the Yakama Nation to try to trap the bears for relocation, Droscher said.
The state's black-bear population ranges from 25,000 to 30,000 animals, according to state Department of Fish and Wildlife. Bear attacks are rare in the state, with only one fatal and five nonfatal attacks on record between 1920 and 2010.
Bears usually prefer to avoid people, but can behave aggressively when they feel threatened, especially if cubs are present. Barney said that one female at the park has two small cubs and another is pregnant.
When people get within 30 to 50 feet of the 300- to 500-pound adults, the animals start getting agitated, he added.
Bears mate in the summer and feast on tree fruits, berries and nuts this time of year.
Yakima-based state wildlife department biologist Jeff Bernatowicz said it's rare for bears to get into trouble with people on the reservation.
"I know the Yakama Nation did a radio telemetry study on bears, putting radio collars on them, and they were surprised at how many bears were living in creek bottoms around people who never knew they were there," Bernatowicz said.
But, bears do occasionally come down into the White Swan area, wandering neighborhoods searching for food in people's trash.
Becoming accustomed to humans is unsafe for bears as well as people, so when bears are found hanging out in town, the tribe's wildlife staff typically traps them and releases them in forest areas deep in the reservation, which is closed to most nontribal members.

Game Show Glory
by Slacker And Steve
posted May 16 2014 3:26PM
Contestants on game shows have been going viral lately, from Wheel of Fortune to Family Feud.
A contestant's Achilles heel on Wheel of Fortune was that he couldn't pronounce 'Achilles' on Friday. A student from Indiana University missed a chance to win $1 million dollars, a car, and a trip to London when he embarrassingly botched two puzzles. The contestant, Julian, managed to guess every letter to complete the phrase "Mythological Hero Achilles," but did not read it correctly to solve the puzzle and win $1 million and a trip to London, Mediaite reported. Unfortunately, Julian mispronounced "Achilles" as "A-chill-us" and host Pat Sajak couldn't give him credit for the answer. The next contestant pronounced the name correctly and won the round. Later in the show, Julian guessed almost every letter in the puzzle in the "person" category and could have won a car, but he managed to miss out again! The only two letters left in the puzzle were the "m" and "n" in the phrase, "The World's Fastest Man." However, Julian incorrectly guessed the letter "c" and once again the next contestant swooped in to solve the puzzle after Julian's failed attempt.
Also the Sass family made it to the Fast Money round and Tim did an outstanding job, leaving Anna just 18 points away from the $20,000 prize in the second part of the round. But she stumbled over the quick questions, often repeating Tim's answers and guessing strange secondary answers when prompted to think again. Perhaps her most cringe-worthy moment came when she was asked to name "Something a person's belly does," and she replied "throws up." As the Sass family looked on in horror and clutched each other for support, Anna managed to mess up every single answer.
Slacker wonders how they send you a lifetime supply of anything, is it a box or what? He asks what if you win mops for a year do you have to tell them how much square feet the house is. Slacker wonders about lifetime supply of razors? He uses them more than the average person for his head and face. Slacker thinks if you have a collard sweatshirt you will have an easier time to get on one of the game shows, it makes for good conversation with the host. Slacker doesn't understand how you mess up on Family Feud; they ask you the easiest questions possible!
Steve has cousins hat lived in Anaheim and they would randomly go and apply to get on game shows. One of his cousins actually got onto Showcase Showdown! He has heard that the Wheel of Fortune wheel is really unstable and pretty dirty. Steve doesn't understand how you mistake Achilles and say A-chill-us? Steve thinks the family on Family Feud put the daughter up for adoption because of the horrific mess up.
What was your 15 minutes of fame on a game show?

Repair or Replace?
It was time to fix the trim on the windows of our house. So I scraped, sanded, and applied wood filler to get the aging trim ready for paint. After all of my efforts—including a coat of primer and some too-expensive paint—the trim looks, well, pretty good. But it doesn't look new. The only way to make the trim look new would be to replace the old wood.
It's okay to have weather-damaged window trim that looks "pretty good" to our eye. But when it comes to our sin-damaged hearts, it's not enough to try to fix things up. From God's point of view, we need all things to become new (2 Cor. 5:17).
That is the beauty of salvation through faith in Jesus. He died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sin and rose from the dead to display His power over sin and death. The result is that in God's eyes, faith in Christ's work makes us a "new creation" (2 Cor. 5:17) and replaces the old with a "new life" (Acts 5:20). Looking through Jesus and His work on the cross for us, our heavenly Father sees everyone who has put his or her faith in Him as new and unblemished.
Sin has caused great damage. We can't fix it ourselves. We must trust Jesus as Savior and let Him give us a brand-new life.
God's Refreshing Word
When I was a boy, our family would occasionally travel across Nevada. We loved the desert thunderstorms. Accompanied by lightning bolts and claps of thunder, huge sheets of rain would blanket the hot sand as far as the eye could see. The cooling water refreshed the earth—and us.
Amazing Grace
Pressed into service in the Royal Navy, John Newton was dismissed for insubordination and turned to a career trafficking in slaves. Notorious for cursing and blasphemy, Newton served on a slave ship during the cruelest days of trans-Atlantic slavery, finally working his way up to captain.
Broken But Beautiful
Recently, my daughter showed me her collection of sea glass. Also known as beach glass, the varied bits of colored glass are sometimes pieces of pottery but often they are pieces of shattered glass bottles. Originally the glass had a purpose, but then it was casually thrown away and became broken.
Restored By The Master
Over the centuries, many attempts have been made to restore damaged and time-worn masterpieces of art. While some of these efforts have skillfully preserved the original work of artists, others have actually damaged many works of genius, including ancient Greek statues and at least two paintings by da Vinci.
New Birth
What is there about babies that makes us smile? Many people will stop everything at the sight or sound of a baby and will flock to gaze at the little one. I noticed this when I visited my dad at a nursing home. Though most of the residents were wheelchair-bound and suffered from dementia, the visit of a family with a baby almost unfailingly brought a spark of joy to their eyes that—tentatively at first but then undoubtedly—became a smile. It was amazing to watch.
From Bleak To Beautiful
Spring is the time of year when God reminds us that things are not always as they seem. Over the course of a few short weeks, what appears hopelessly dead comes to life. Bleak woodlands are transformed into colorful landscapes. Trees whose naked arms reached to heaven all winter, as if pleading to be clothed, suddenly are adorned with lacy green gowns. Flowers that faded and fell to the ground in surrender to the cold rise slowly from the earth in defiance of death.
My husband and I were at a public swimming pool when the people around us started staring into the sky. A small plane was emitting smoke in the form of letters. As we watched, the pilot spelled out the letters: "I L-O-V-E." People began speculating: Maybe it was to be a marriage proposal. Perhaps a romantic man is standing nearby on a balcony with his girlfriend and will soon pop the Will-you-marry-me? question. We kept gazing upward: "I L-O-V-E Y-O-U J-E-." I heard young girls guessing: "I bet it will be Jen or maybe Jessica." He kept spelling. No. It was: "J-E-S-U-S." The pilot was declaring love for Jesus for many people to see.
Knee-Deep In Daffodils
When the first flowers of spring bloomed in our yard, my 5-year-old son waded into a patch of daffodils. He noticed some debris from plants that had expired months before and remarked, "Mom, when I see something dead, it reminds me of Easter because Jesus died on the cross." I replied, "When I see something alive—like the daffodils—it reminds me that Jesus came back to life!"

Beauty Tips From Bobbi Brown
Does my outfit affect how my makeup looks?
Ruby Chapman, Bensalem, Penn.
Bobbi: Absolutely! Don't try to match your makeup to your clothes, just find a "nude" (not naked, just natural) look that works when you're wearing basic black. When you have on bright colors, a soft blush (like NP Set Baked Powder Blush ($20; target.com) that mimics the natural color of your cheeks is best. On days you wear pastels or white, apply a brighter blush so you don't look washed out.

The word geriatrics, like many expressive medical terms, is derived from the Greek. Masters introduced it in a thesis in 1914. It was suggested by the name of a council of twenty-eight wise elders known as a "gerousia." It is said that to these men "Religion lent an aura and wisdom a shield; what they had accumulated lent wisdom to their heirs." More specifically, the word is compounded from "geron," meaning "old man," and "iatrikos," meaning "medical treatment."
In 1925 Williams featured the endocrine lapses in senescence, and the freudian considerations of personality changes led to much popular discussion of glandular transplants and the surgery of the Voronoff and Steinach school. The turn of the century witnessed much enthusiasm over curtailing "autointoxication" through diet and unwise limitation of proteins. Prof. A. S. Warthin carried to a depressing ultimate an analysis of the simple running down of the clock, or "senescence."

Urban India Consumer Outlook: Spending, employment, inflation
Fri Jun 06 2014, 10:40 hrs
ZyFin's Consumer Outlook Index for May 2014, which is a barometer of consumer confidence, reflects current and future spending plans, employment and inflation outlook of urban Indian consumers. It has registered a score of 42.0 for May 2014, as compared to 40.6 for the previous month. A score above 50 reflects optimism while below 50 is an indication of pessimism. The top five cities with the highest scores this month were Mumbai, Hyderabad, Mangalore, Chennai and Bhubaneswar. The index is based on a monthly survey of 4,000 consumers across 18 cities categorized into metros, Tier I and Tier II. With private spending accounting for over 55% of Indias real GDP, gauging consumer sentiment plays an important role in identifying turning points ahead of time. Here are the few key points: (Photo Courtesy: Reuters)
The ZyFin Consumer Outlook Index of India (COI) improved to 42.0 in May 2014, from 40.6 in the previous month. This increase is based on a sizeable recovery in consumers willingness to spend in the coming months. This can be an early indication of improving sentiments, linked to a strong government infused with all the parliamentary muscle required to initiate and push through reforms. However, consumers continue to observe a stagnant macro-economy, reporting negligible improvements in employment and inflation sentiment. Until concrete policy reforms show results, consumers are likely to remain unmoved on these fundamental macro issues. (Photo: AP)
Among the COI components, the Inflation Sentiment Index, the largest inflationary expectations survey globally, moved up to 25.6 in May 2014 after two months at 25.1, reflecting a moderate improvement in sentiment towards inflationary conditions. (Photo: AP)
The Spending Sentiment Index improved for the first time since December 2013, to 28.1 in the current month from its lowest-ever level of 25.9 in the last month. (Photo: AP)
Another key component, the Employment Sentiment Index extended its stay within optimistic territory to five months, but remains almost unchanged. The index improved marginally, to 51.7 in May 2014, from 51.6 in the previous month. (Photo: AP)
Giving his views on the ZyFin Consumer Outlook Index numbers for the month of May, Mr. Debopam Chaudhuri, Chief Economist, ZyFin Research, said, With the Reserve Bank Of India signaling a softer interest rate regime, we expect consumers willingness to spend to improve over the next three to four months. This would ensure the much-needed revival in the auto and real estate sectors, which are key to providing a boost to the sagging economy where 55% of GDP is composed of private spending. (Photo: AP)

Lawmen say the thieves who stole thousands of dollars worth of copper and caused even more damage at an industrial site in the east are now behind bars after the two allegedly came back for more.
The Martin County Sheriff's Office says 20-year-old William Green III of Stokes and 53-year-old Steven Newman of Vanceboro broke into an industrial site on July 13th and stole 7,000 worth of copper wire. In the process, police say they caused $100,000 worth of damage.
Lawmen began a surveillance operation after a second breaking and entering was reported and say at 1:30 Friday morning investigators spotted Green and Newman approaching the site with what they described as tools for burglary.
The two face a number of larceny and breaking and entering charges.

It's Harvest Time!
In Cornucopia, your goal is to fill your basket with a bountiful collection of fruits and vegetables while at the same time, correctly predicting how long it will take you to fill your basket.
You can try to assemble a basket with only one type of fruit or vegetable, which is difficult to do; or you can try to collect the entire range of harvest products. In either case, you want to complete your harvest as efficiently as possible to earn the most coins.
Players can bet and win more coins by correctly predicting the outcome (success or failure) of opponents' efforts to assemble their harvest, so players stay involved and engaged in the game even when it is not their turn!
Cornucopia's gameplay is deceptively simple but both the bidding and scoring systems add an enjoyable level of strategy to the game. It all adds up to a Cornucopia of great fun for the whole family!
"There are elements of press-your-luck and risk assessment, the result of a fascinating combination of set collection and a wagering mechanic that keeps everyone involved at all times, so there's lots of fun, excitement, whooping, and hollering as cards are turned over... just wanted to keep playing it again and again." ~~Ender Wiggins on Boardgame Geek

In response to Flapjack07's comment:
Did Jones really "resurrect his career" in NY? If anything, he was juicing his last several seasons in Atlanta, and it ruined him.
He did really well with them last year. Boy no one wants to ever hear about the Golden Boy Jeter possibly using HGH. Can anyone say beyond a reasonable doubt that he does not use PEDs? Brian Naulty named him him then rescinded the comment. The Yankees will never let anything damaging about Jeter get out and he is very well insulated. If his stats drop drastically this year people will smell a rat and he is in the final year of a contract as well.
I guess you think hitting .190-ish is well; the likely problem is those 2 bombs he hit vs the RS last yr is tatooed in your memory.
As far as Jeter is concerned, he's a yr older, and had a serious injury in the PS. So maybe if he declines from that terrific season, it could be due to that.
Having said that, nobody is beyond reproach; but your obssession with these Yankee legends who are most likely clean is comical. BTW, what about Nomar, Lowell & Ortiz?
What about them??
Regarding reproach, I said the same exact thing a couple of posts up. As far as Lowell is concerned, he was a slugger in a pitcher's park (Fla), then his build was much smaller on the RS, and actually hit 8 HRs a couple of yrs after that; then he developed a severe hip problem, which ended his career. My DAD back in the '80s had to take a powerful steroid long term for a muscle disease he had, which caused necrosis of the hip, a terribly painful & debilitating condition. Also, see ARod.
AS far as Nomar is concerned, he was the first suspect named on the "unconfirmed" 2003 list of PED users; see below
And Kim, you talking about keeping it real is like a pedophile priest lecturing morals To Pope John Paul II.
And throw in a little Catholic bashing for good measure.
There are enough of them out there.
That wan't the intent. If you want to use Rabbi's instead in my analogy, fell free to do so. However, I don't recall any press/ruckus about them, so it wasn't omnipresent on my mind.

Going into the weekend the Yellow Jackets knew they would get two stiff tests. The first night the Yellow Jackets faced off against Dordt College who had been receiving votes in the top 25. The Yellow Jackets got off to a fast start behind hot shooting from freshman guard Cain Atkinson who recorded a season high of 31 points. The Yellow Jackets took a 45-31 lead into halftime. Coming out of halftime the Yellow Jackets picked up right where they left off shooting 55% from the field. Freshman Luke Enos had 15 points and 11 rebounds. Freshman Clay Pottorff added 13 points.
The next night the Yellow Jackets took on 10-3 Montana State University Northern. The Yellow Jackets once again got off to a fast start taking a 52-33 lead into halftime. In the second half Black Hills State would stretch their lead to 28 points before MSU Northern would mount a strong comeback. They could never get within 10 points as the Yellow Jackets would take the game 90-78. Black Hills State was led in scoring by junior Randy Herman with 23 points. Cain Atkinson and senior Corey Doolan both had 12 points. Freshman Will John Johnson had 11 points and nine rebounds and freshman Luke Enos added 11 points.

BONNE TERRE, Mo. (AP) — A man convicted of kidnapping, raping and killing a 17-year-old girl in suburban St. Louis has been executed in Missouri, marking the state's fifth execution in as many months.
Jeffrey Ferguson was lethally injected just after midnight Wednesday at the state prison in Bonne Terre.
The 59-year-old was accused of kidnapping Kelli Hall as she finished her shift at a Mobil gas station in St. Charles on Feb. 9, 1989.
Her frozen body was found 13 days later on a St. Louis County farm.
Ferguson had expressed remorse for the crime. Supporters said he'd found religion, counseled other inmates and helped start a prison hospice program.
But St. Louis County prosecutor Bob McCulloch said Ferguson's good deeds in prison didn't make up for the senseless killing of an innocent teenager.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
The U.S. Supreme Court refused late Tuesday to stop the impending execution of a Missouri man convicted of kidnapping, raping and killing a 17-year-old girl in 1989.
The high court released its rulings barely an hour before 59-year-old Jeffrey Ferguson was scheduled for lethal injection at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday at the state prison in Bonne Terre.
Ferguson's attorneys were challenging, among other things, the state's refusal to disclose where it gets its execution drugs. Their appeals also were denied by the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, and the governor denied a clemency request.
The execution will mark the state's fifth execution since November.
Ferguson was accused of kidnapping Kelli Hall shortly before her shift ended at a Mobil gas station in St. Charles on Feb. 9, 1989. Her frozen body was found 13 days later on a St. Louis County farm.
"Kelli Hall was only 17 when she was abducted from her workplace, raped and brutally murdered," Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon said in a statement Tuesday evening. "Her life, so full of promise, was brutally taken from her and her family."
"The jury that convicted Jeffrey Ferguson of Kelli's murder found that the aggravating circumstances for this crime warranted the death penalty," he said in denying the clemency request. "My decision today upholds that appropriate sentence. "
Missouri switched to a one-drug execution method late last year. The state obtains the drug, pentobarbital, from a compounding pharmacy it refuses to name.
Ferguson's attorney, Jennifer Herndon, had asked the 8th Circuit to stay the execution, arguing that the state's secretive process prohibited the public from knowing exactly how the drug was made and whether it could cause pain and suffering for the inmate.
The drug was used in the state's four previous executions, and the inmates showed no outward signs of distress during the execution process.
A similar request for a stay, arguing that Ferguson wasn't given timely notice of the method being used for his execution, was filed with the U.S. Supreme Court.
Ferguson's supporters argue that he has turned his life around behind bars and has been a model prisoner who works with other inmates, helped start a hospice program and performed other good deeds.
Herndon said Ferguson was an alcoholic who blacked out on the night of the murder, but that he became devoutly religious once sent to death row.
Ferguson and a friend, Kenneth Ousley, were at a Shell service station in St. Charles on the night of the murder.
Hall, who worked at the Mobil station across the street, was nearing the end of her eight-hour work shift when she went outside to check the levels of four fuel tanks.
A witness said Ferguson's Chevrolet Blazer pulled up. The witness saw a man standing close to Hall with a hand in his pocket. Ferguson was carrying a pistol.
About a half-hour later, a co-worker went looking for Hall. When they found out she was not home and her purse was still at the station, they contacted police. Later, some of her clothing was found by a city worker in the St. Louis County town of Chesterfield.
On Feb. 22, Warren Stemme was approaching a machine shed on his farm in Maryland Heights, another St. Louis suburb, when he found Hall's frozen body, naked except for socks. She had been strangled.
An acquaintance suspicious about Ferguson led police to him, and he was convicted of first-degree murder. Ousley pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in 1993; he is serving a life term but is eligible for parole.

Hi everyone
Recently upgraded to ZCS 7 from 6 but just noticed that one of the improvements I was hoping for hasn't materialised.
I realise the Tasks system has had a complete rewrite with regards to the way it handles reminders. The ability to enter a specific date/time for the reminder is a big improvement.
But I notice that the same level of control of appointment reminders isn't available. Is that by design?
Are there any plans to roll out the improved reminder granularity to the Calendar utility?
IMO a reminder is a reminder... whether it comes from a Task or Calendar Appointment should be irrelevant.
What would be really useful is an expanded range of options for the reminder snooze screen.
Being able to snooze a reminder for x number of hours/days/weeks/months -or- specify a new exact time for the reminder would be superb.
Anyone got any info/opinions on this?
Cheers, B
PS: Really like the new horizontal time picker to specify 15/30/45 mins past the hour. That's an excellent bit of UI work right there.

- Staff file photo by Bob Hammerstrom
A clydesdale is walked from the pasture into the boarding house at the Anheuser-Busch Budweiser Plant in Merrimack May 1, 2008. The Brewery has planned a clydesdale parade for October 5, 2014, following a Human Society for Greater Nashua "Walk for Whiskers" fundraising event at the brewery Saturday morning at 9.
Clydesdales back in the game
America's favorite Clydesdales won't be put out to pasture for today's Super Bowl after all.
In a rare instance of recapturing a horse after it had left the barn, Anheuser-Busch reversed its decision and will run an advertisement featuring the popular Budweiser Clydesdales during the NFL's championship game.
Although the draft horses in the ad won't be the ones that are stabled in Merrimack, the Clydesdales nonetheless bring a sense of familiarity to a series of television commercials that will promote everything from cars to soap.
Anheuser-Busch purchased five minutes of advertising from CBS, the network that will carry the game, said Mike Bulthaus, the company's director of brand communications.
But the Clydesdale commercial that initially came back from the ad agency was 30 seconds long and didn't have enough time to tell a full story, he said. The ad also didn't work with small focus groups, he said.
"It wasn't quite the bigness that you'd expect from a Budweiser Clydesdale ad," Bulthaus said.
Anheuser-Busch chose to run nine ads for Budweiser, Bud Light and two other Anheuser-Busch beers, and for the first time in eight Super Bowls, a Clydesdale wouldn't help market Bud.
Media outlets that cover advertising picked up on the exclusion of the Clydesdales. Just as those stories appeared, Anheuser-Busch received an extended version of the ad, and this new 60-second spot gave the story the kick it needed, Bulthaus said.
At the same time, Anheuser- Busch placed the revised Clydesdale ad on its Facebook page and asked fans to choose between it and two other commercials. The Clydesdale spot was a fan favorite, and sure enough, Anheuser-Bush announced Thursday it had reshuffled its Super Bowl advertising lineup to include the horses.
The Clydesdales have made a mark on an event celebrated as much for its television commercials as the game itself. Super Bowl audiences have seen Clydesdales in 12 Super Bowl ads, doing everything from pulling a red Studebaker beer wagon to playing a football game in the snow.
Recognition certainly helps in a venture that's "part art, part science," said Josh Lauer, an assistant professor of communication at the University of New Hampshire.
"It's very hard under any circumstance to make an advertisement that's water-cooler- worthy," Lauer said. "The pressure of all the money spent makes some advertisers really raise the bar.
"But even if you have all the money in the world and the most talent … it's hard to know what will stick."
A television spot for this Super Bowl reportedly cost at least $2.5 million. That may seem like a lot of money, but with advertisers trying to reach an expected audience of 100 million, it's a risk worth taking, Lauer said.
For one, pre-game publicity about the ads almost eclipses the pre-game hype of the Super Bowl, Lauer said. With a Super Bowl commercial, an advertiser not only gets 30 seconds of exposure, but nearly three weeks of media coverage, he said.
Indeed, Anheuser-Busch has received a lot of press over the Clydesdales. Many viewers sitting down for the game will now know to keep an eye out for the horses – and a bull.
The commercial will feature a young Clydesdale running opposite a fence that pens a calf, Bulthaus said. The Clydesdale trots off, but the calf can't.
Flash forward three years. The Clydesdale, again, isn't impeded, Bulthaus said, but this time, the calf, now a bull, "has no problem going through the fence."
Even though the horses in the ad aren't the ones you see when visiting the brewery in Merrimack, there was some advertising history made there.
The first Clydesdales holiday commercial aired in 1976, showing the Merrimack-based hitch returning home for the holidays on a snowy evening.
The first commercials featuring the Clydesdales that introduced them as the symbol of Budweiser aired in 1956.

Marianne Clark cannot understand why the woman who gave birth to Terri Schiavo, dried her tears and nursed her cuts and bruises counts less...
PINELLAS PARK, Fla. — Marianne Clark cannot understand why the woman who gave birth to Terri Schiavo, dried her tears and nursed her cuts and bruises counts less to the courts than the husband who asked that Schiavo's feeding tube be removed.
"You have a husband who hasn't been faithful, and he's the one the judges all listen to," the Sarasota woman said from a protest line outside the hospice where Schiavo was in her second week without food or water. "There's nothing like a mother. A mother knows her child, and nobody else should be able to make that decision."
Some Christian conservatives and others who want to prolong Schiavo's life do not see why her husband gets to decide her fate. But the role of the spouse as next of kin and decision-maker has deep roots in both civil and biblical law.
"It's odd that conservative Christians would be making this claim," said Christopher Schroeder, director of the public-law program at Duke University. "You can find biblical passages that say once you have a union like this, the union's all that matters. The parents drop out of the picture."

Bob and Mary Schindler say their daughter was a practicing Roman Catholic and would have wanted to be sustained after suffering severe brain damage in 1990. But the courts accepted Michael Schiavo's testimony that his wife's expressed wish was not to be kept alive artificially.
"The courts didn't ask Michael Schiavo, 'What do you want to do to Terri?' They asked him, 'What do you think Terri would want you to do?' " said University of Florida research associate Barbara Noah, who lectures on medical law and bioethics.
Michael Schiavo, as the husband, has been allowed to make all kinds of intimate decisions about her care. The courts not only gave him permission to have the feeding tube removed March 18, but also let him determine how often she is given Holy Communion, where she will be buried and whether even to allow her parents to attend the funeral.
The practice of giving the spouse decision-making authority stretches back to English common law, when a woman basically became a non-person when she married, said Herma Hill Kay, an expert on marriage law at the University of California, Berkeley.
The laws giving one spouse direction over the other's affairs are now gender-neutral.
Clark and other protesters have accused Michael Schiavo of violating "God's law" by withholding nourishment from his wife and by having had two children over the years with his live-in girlfriend.
But the legal tradition now separating Terri Schiavo from her parents' presumed protection also has a foundation in biblical law. In Genesis 2:24, it reads: "Therefore, a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh."
Terri Schiavo had the right to leave written instructions giving someone else control over her medical care, and that person would have taken precedence over the husband, Noah said. In the absence of written instructions, the spouse generally gets precedence over the parents, on the presumption that the spouse lived with the incapacitated person and was most familiar with the patient's recent thinking, she said.

Customer Reviews
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulJanuary 02, 2013Reviewer: Kristy in ArizonaI really wanted to like this product. I take B12 as I am deficient due to having celiac. I take many Now brand products, but I can't use this one. It tastes great and is very convenient; however, it does not dissolve for me and I can tell it is not absorbed correctly. I am going to try Now's liquid form of B12.
October 22, 2009Reviewer: A customer in New YorkI prefer this formula to any others I have found. Most have cyanocobalamin in them. I prefer not to have cyanide in any form in my vitamins. This one has a great berry taste and dissolves quickly and easily for great absorption.
August 30, 2008Reviewer: Barbara in IllinoisI was hesitant to try a lozenge product. I was afraid it would taste like medicine or like a vitamin. This product is an absolute TREAT to take each day. It is like a small raspberry candy that I take each day. It's a very effective B-12 and I feel great with it as well. But the flavor was very important to me as if it tasted bad I would have been less likely to take it as faithfully.

The first drivable Lego car is made of 500,000 pieces and runs on air.
VIDEO: Watch the test drive of the Lego car
inventors of the Lego car are Australian entrepreneur Steve Sammartino
and Romanian Raul Oaida, a self-taught technology guru.
The car - known as the Super Awesome Micro Project
- can reach a top speed of 18 mph. It was built in Romania and
delivered to a location in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia, where
the car was test-driven, according to the inventors' website.
"We were scared of a Lego explosion, so we drove it slowly," the inventors said on their site.
the engine is made of Legos, which has "four orbital engines and a
total of 256 pistons," according to the site. Only the tires and some
load-bearing elements are not made of the plastic block toys.
pair met when Sammartino accepted a Skype request from Oaida, who was
interested in meeting an astronaut whom Sammartino knew, the Daily Mail reports.
"I'm teaching him about business and he's teaching me a bit about physics. It's a really nice mash-up," Sammartino told the Daily Mail.
project was crowdfunded through Twitter, starting with a request from
Sammartino in February 2012, asking for contributions of $500 to $1,000
from 20 participants. In the end, about 40 people funded the project.
