Despite recommendations to the contrary by another governing body, the Dixon City Council on Tuesday unanimously OK'd going forward with the Valley Glen subdivision project.
Previously, planning commissioners had voted 3-1 to recommend that council members deny a request by Richland Communities to reallocate 106 Measure B residential development allotments from the allotment pool.
Traffic and other community concerns contributed to the commission's conclusion.
Similar issues arose Tuesday, with Community Development Director Dave Dowswell explaining that a traffic study done in 2010 in conjunction with another proposed project, the Brookfield development, addressed worries. The study took into account traffic caused by the high school, he said, and revealed that, though increases were shown at certain points of the day, it didn't exceed city standards.
At issue was the developer's request to be reallocated 106 residential allotments under the Measure B ordinance. The company asked for 53 lots for 2014 and 53 for 2015.
In 2002, the city entered into a development agreement with Pulte Homes. It received 837 Measure B allotments to be built over an eight-year period starting in 2003. But as of July 2006, just 462 had been used. The remainder expired in 2010 and were returned to the pool.
In 2009, Pulte Homes sold its remaining 375 lots to WSI Land Holdings, LLC (aka Richland Communities). Richland received 59 allotments in 2011.
Community members questioned whether multiple-year allotments could be granted under Measure B and City Attorney Michael Dean assured that they could.
"It's clear that Measure B allows the City Council to grant residential development allotments to developers utilizing the mechanism of a development agreement and to do that for multiple years," he said.
Some residents said complaints have been filed with the District Attorney alleging failure to comply with public records requests.
City Manager Jim Lindley responded that the city goes beyond what's required by law to provide information.
"We have bent over backwards to supply every request that we get," he said.
As for complaints regarding the Parkway Boulevard overcrossing, which was slated to be built in 2007, Mayor Jack Batchelor said the three developments that would trigger the construction have not yet happened.
"There's been no development so there's no one to collect any money from," he said.

AbstractA key factor of international efforts to identify and suppress the supply of and demand for nuclear materials, and thereby to deter potential traffickers, is the ability to accurately identify contradicted material and ultimately to trace it back to its origin. Alpha particle spectroscopy is widely used in nuclear forensics to assay trace quantities of sensitive nuclear materials, but the limited spectral resolution of conventional alpha spectrometers limits their effectiveness to perform high-accuracy assays of such materials. STAR Cryoelectronics proposes to develop a high-resolution alpha spectrometer based on microcalorimeter detectors offering nearly a ten-fold improvement in energy resolution, thereby enabling the detection of minute isotopic compositional difference in sensitive nuclear materials. The innovative spectrometer requires only electrical power to operate, is completely automated, and will greatly increase the accuracy and throughput of current protocols for alpha spectroscopy.

STREAMING: Hell Militia "Deus Irae"/
France's Hell Militia have been kicking (unfortunate) Euro ass since the early aughts, so it stands to reason there's a "sizeable" contingent of believers into the group's three full-length albums, the most recent of which is Jacob's Ladder on the Season of Mist label. "Jacob's Ladder reveals the inner side of Hell Militia," says the non-corpsepainted Hell Militia in a prepared statement. "Violent and dissonant, urban and religious, the new Hell Militia is a mix of old-school black metal and modern black metal." And they're pretty on-target with that blurb. Jacob's Ladder has enough of the Mütiilation's never-stop-the-madness stuff combined with the high concept black of homeland homies Deathspell Omega or Blut Aus Nord to compete with the best of 'em. The album strikes a blasphemous balance. Even the album art is "different" yet "different". Although Season of Mist would have you believe there's "accessible songwriting" to be found on Hell Militia's third full-length, it's not of the Dimmu Borgir or Cradle of Filth approach. It's dissonant, angular, and altogether conceived from a different astral (possibly nefarious) plane. What else would you expect from dudes who moonlighted in Mütiilation and the ultra-caustic Arkhon Infaustus?
Recorded at SOS Studios in Germany---also home to alt-black sensation Secrets of the Moon---Jacob's Ladder's brutal art is best displayed on near album's end track, "Deus Irae". Normally, we would've suggested a track 1 or track 2 pull, as that's where the gems are posited for prime indoctrination, but with Hell Militia it's all backward. Like life. So, imbibe in Hell Militia's roaring hate. Better to do it now before the "pig" comes again.
** Hell Militia's new album, Jacob's Ladder, is out November 16th on Season of Mist underground imprint Underground Activists. It's available HERE, or you can go get that Gatling gun replica you've been fawning over recently. Now, that's some real "war metal".

Christmas Stocking
Tree Stand
♥ wood project♥
Christmas Stocking Tree Stand
Designer: Kevin Sherrod
Make an adorable Christmas stocking tree! It can also be used for hanging other items, such as holiday banners, small quilts, artwork etc.
A coat or two of paint and a tree skirt to hide the base, and it's all finished! Your own choice of paint, added glitter and other decorations will make it uniquely your own.
Christmas Stocking Pattern
While you are at it, sew up some new Christmas stockings! I provide a free pattern that creates stockings that are beautifully finished, inside and out.
The main part of our stocking tree stand (center pole) is 68" in height. You can change the size of your stand to suit your needs.
We used a dowel of 1/4" diameter. The thickness of the dowel is your choice, but it must fit through the main post and it must be strong enough to hold your stockings when they are full. If your stockings will be heavy, you may want to use larger dowels for the branches, a larger trunk, and slightly larger base.
Trunk (center pole)
Other Materials
1. Measure down about 6" from the top of the trunk and mark the spot with a pencil.
4. Your shortest branch will be at the top, and each branch down gets longer. Your longest branch will be on the bottom of the trunk. Drill a hole for each branch, drilling each hole PERPENDICULAR to the one before it. Hole should be a size that creates a tight fit for the dowel. We drilled each hole to 1/4" and then sanded the dowel just enough so it would fit through tightly.
5. Push your branch through the hole.
1. Glue or nail the two base squares onto the underside of one of your base cross pieces, even with the ends, to serve as "feet". (refer to photo).
2. Glue or nail the two base cross pieces together, with the piece with feet on top, and with the two pieces perpendicular to one another.
3. Drill a hole into the center of one of your base pieces, large enough to accomodate your trunk.
4. Glue or nail your trunk into the base.
NOTE: You can change the dimensions of your tree, but be sure that the base is large enough to accomodate the tree when fully loaded. If your base is not wide enough, your tree will tip over!

VMware has slammed Microsoft's virtualization licensing and distribution policies as restrictive and anti-competitive. In a multi-page white paper posted Monday on its Web site, the Palo Alto, Calif. leading virtualization software company came out swinging, alleging that Microsoft is "forcing" its virtualization APIs and formats on the industry and leveraging its leading server applications such as Exchange, SQL Server and Windows Server to force customers to use Microsoft's virtualization offerings.
Microsoft currently offers a standalone Virtual Server 2005 and Virtual Server 2005 R2 but is busy building its next generation virtualization hypervisor into its next major Windows server upgrade, code-named Longhorn. The hypervisor, code named Viridian, will ship as an add-on to the Longhorn Server but eventually will be integrated into the server operating system, Microsoft promises. That could stem the popularity of VMware's software layer, which resides between the bare metal server and applications, as a substitute for the operating system.

Energy matters
Tufts cosmologist contemplates the universe
It is Alexander Vilenkins job to ponder major questions such as the origin of the universe. He does so from a pale, jumbled office where books are toppled on shelves and several chairs are covered with papers and still more books. Vilenkin himself, however, is crisp and organized. Dressed in gray slacks and a light gray shirt, he speaks clearly about his discoveries in a field that is complex and difficult for most to understand.
Vilenkins field is cosmologythe branch of astrophysics that studies the origins and structure of the universe. He is a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy and director of the Tufts Institute of Cosmology. By the end of June, he will have two new published contributions in that area. The first is an article in Science magazine that he was invited to write; the second is a book that will be published on June 27.
The article appeared on May 4 on Sciencexpress, a website for Science magazine at http://www.sciencemag.org/sciencexpress/recent.dtl. The book is called Many Worlds in One: The Search for Other Universes (Hill and Wang.)A cosmic puzzle
Science asked Vilenkin to respond to an article written by two other physicists, P.J. Steinhardt of Princeton University and N.G. Turok of Cambridge University, and give background information for discussion. In the article, Vilenkin addresses what he calls a puzzle, namely understanding the energy in a vacuum. A vacuum is empty space, Vilenkin explains, yet according to the principles of quantum mechanics, it has energy, with particles popping up in and out of existence.
You cant utilize this energy, he says. The energy is locked there, and its always the same, so you cant run a hair dryer on it. But it does have an effect through gravity, and it turns out that the gravitational field of the vacuum is very unusual because it is repulsive.
The problem, he says, is that theoretical calculations of this vacuum energy density give ridiculously large numbers energy density that would simply blow the universe apart. So these calculations are certainly wrong, but they come from theories which have been confirmed with very high accuracy. So that is the puzzle: What went wrong? Theory does not agree with observation.A telltale sign
Most physicists, he says, thought that based on observation, the vacuum energy must vanish, and most theoretical efforts were directed at finding a new principle that would make vacuum energy zero. But in the late 1990s, astronomers discovered that the expansion of the universeinstead of being slowed down by gravity as one would expectwas actually accelerating. This is a telltale sign of a nonzero, but very small, energy density of the vacuum.
Vilenkin says that one idea is that vacuum energy density is not really a fixed constant, but that it takes different values in different parts of the universe. You have this huge universe, some say multiverse, and density has high values in some regions and low in others. Where vacuum energy is high, theres gravitational repulsion, and it will prevent stars from forming. Its only in the regions where vacuum energy is small that galaxies can form, and there will be stars and planets.
Because scientists who observe the universe will only exist in regions where vacuum energy is low, that is, where stars and planets can form, the typical observer will detect a low vacuum energy. Yet most of the universe is inhospitable to life, Vilenkin says.
Vilenkins new book about the search for other universes discusses the energy density puzzle as well as other topics, including an explanation of the Big Bang. In its early moments, the universe, he says, was filled with unstable high energy vacuum that was gravitationally repulsive. Thats what blew the universe apart, and then the unstable vacuum decayed and dumped all this energy into a fireball of matter.

I am an entrepreneur, strategist, philosopher, systems architect, mapmaker, life athlete and yogi.
My maps have led me to found technology companies, conduct original research in business management theory and write a variety of essays about the intersections between business, psychology, macroeconomics and philosophy.

I left Stanford in 2010 during my freshman year to found a company that produced the Startup Genome Project and a software product called Compass.
To date the Startup Genome has collected the world's largest comprehensive dataset of high growth early stage technology startups and released 4 highly-regarded reports that have been read by over 1 Million people and covered in many national publications including WSJ, HBR & PBS, adopted into the curriculum of 100+ universities & startup accelerators and inspired numerous businesses and political initiatives.
Compass has developed technology that is essentially a "data refinery" or an "analyst in the cloud": the user puts low value data in and gets high value data back. It is currently used by more than 30,000 CEOs worldwide.
I left the company in 2013 but continue to advise on strategy and work on special projects.

You ARE gay, right?


text:
LGBT groups are now responding to Saturday's shooting of U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-AZ, asking for thoughts and prayers to go out to the congresswoman, her staff and their families and those of the other victims and their loved ones.
Twenty people were shot during a Congressional meet and greet event in Tuscon on Saturday, including Giffords, who is a member of the House LGBT Equality Caucus and an outspoken supporter of LGBT rights and gay marriage. Six people died, and doctors are "cautiously optimistic" that Rep. Giffords will recover from the head wound she received from an attack that President Obama has described as an "unspeakable tragedy."
"Congresswoman Giffords' support for our LGBT family has never faltered," LGBT Congressional Staff Association President Chris Crowe said in a statement. "After coming off of one of the closest races in the most recent election cycle, one in which she was criticized for her support of equality issues, she didn't hesitate for a moment to support the repeal of 'Don't Ask Don't Tell'. She has stood with us unrelentingly and in this sad time we stand with her."
The president of the Human Rights Campaign, a national LGBT organization, also said in a statement, "We are shocked and saddened by the events involving Congresswoman Giffords and our hearts go out to her and the other victims of this awful tragedy. Gabby Giffords is a champion for LGBT equality and a principled leader for Arizona."
An intern on Rep. Giffords staff is credited for helping save her life by quickly responding after the shooting and administering first aid. The person thought to be responsible for the shooting, 22-year-old Jared Lee Loughner, is now in federal custody.

Lasers used to regenerate teeth, promising end to root-canal pain
Scientists have come up with a bright way to whiten the smile.
They say their concept of using laser light to entice the body's own stem cells into action may offer enormous promise beyond dentistry in the field of regenerative medicine.
The researchers used a low-power laser to coax dental stem cells to form dentin, the hard tissue similar to bone that makes up most of a tooth, demonstrating the process in studies involving rats and mice and using human cells in a laboratory.
They did not regenerate an entire tooth because the enamel part was too tricky, but getting dentin to grow could end root canal treatment, the painful procedure to remove dead or dying nerve tissue and bacteria from inside a tooth, they said.
"I'm a dentist by training. So I think it has potential for great impact in clinical dentistry," researcher Praveen Arany, a United States National Institutes of Health researcher said.
Arany expressed hope that human clinical trials could get approval in the near future.
Harvard University bioengineering professor David Mooney said: "Our treatment modality does not introduce anything new to the body, and lasers are routinely used in medicine and dentistry, so the barriers to clinical translation are low. It would be a substantial advance in the field if we can regenerate teeth rather than replace them."
Using existing regeneration methods, scientists must take stem cells from the body, manipulate them and put them back into the body. This technique more simply stimulates stem cells that are already in place.
Scientists had long noticed the capacity of low-level laser therapy to stimulate biological processes but were not sure how.
Arany noted the importance of finding the right laser dose, saying: "Too low doesn't work and too high causes damage."
The researchers found that laser exposure of the tooth prompted certain molecules to activate a cell protein known to be involved in development, healing and immune functions.
Arany said he hoped the method could be used in healing wounds, regenerating cardiac tissue, dealing with inflammation issues and fixing bone damage, among other applications.
The study appears in Science Translational Medicine.

Terminal Rifle
We all know it's possible, it has happened in the past: you are placed in a position that demands you defend yourself because some other force is trying to kill you. For some of you it might help to imagine aliens landed because Chuck Norris finally died and you have to pick a rifle or carbine to defend yourself and your family. For others it might help to image a foreign power invading (not likely on foot, but hang in there) and you need to pick from your arsenal, or local gunshop, a rifle or carbine which you think would be best for your purpose (defending your life). I'm not saying it would be like an arcade game, people popping up at windows left and right, but for realistic purposes.
So if you had to pick any rifle to defend yourself in a End-of-the-World scenario, what would it be?

Wednesday, April 9, 2014 | 7:30 p.m.
It wasn't a typical call that went out over the Food 4 Less PA system.
A suspicious man had been spotted in the meat department, knocking items off shelves and trying to devour raw meat.
When an employee went to check out the bizarre scene, he found a man lying on the floor, screaming. A knife was next to him.
It was the blade authorities believe Brandon McIver, 21, had just used in a double stabbing that left one man dead.
A Metro Police arrest report released today gives more details about the events surrounding Monday's attacks:
Calls started pouring in around 3:30 p.m. about a man being stabbed in his pickup while stopped at an intersection.
Metro dispatched officers to Nellis Boulevard and Sahara Avenue, where they found stabbing victim Ambrosio Trujillo-Martinez, 60, who was transported to Sunrise Hospital for wounds to his chest and arm.
Trujillo-Martinez had just been to a nearby Circle K with his wife, who was in the 2007 white Ford pickup with her husband when the attack occurred. She was uninjured.
Trujillo-Martinez died at the hospital.
After the stabbing, the suspect wandered toward nearby businesses, screaming obscenities along the way, according to one witness.
McIver ended up in a nearby Food 4 Less, where an employee was able to snag the knife of the suspect before he headed to a nearby Starbucks, where he was apprehended.
McIver was combative and at one point he told officers he was on the drug "molly," often called ecstasy.
Officers found a second victim at Winterwood Pavilion, a shopping complex on Nellis near Sahara.
Adan Brieno-Hinojosa had thought the man approaching him in his car needed money — until he saw the knife.
Brieno-Hinojosa, 33, was transported to Sunrise Hospital, where he received eight stitches for cuts on the hand he used to shield himself.
McIver is to be arraigned Thursday in Las Vegas Township Justice Court.
He remains in Clark County Detention Center and is charged with first-degree murder, battery with use of a deadly weapon, and burglary while in possession of a deadly weapon, according to court records.

South Africans get 120,000 free World Cup tickets
JOHANNESBURG -- South Africans will receive 120,000 free tickets to next year's World Cup, a move organizers say will ensure that South Africa's poor share in becoming the first African nation to host the world's most popular sporting event.
FIFA said on Friday that its 2010 World Cup Ticket Fund is the first of its kind in the tournament's 80 years.
Soccer's world governing body had already set low ticket prices for South African residents, starting at about $17, compared to $80 for international tickets. But with more than a quarter of the work force unemployed, and many of those who do have jobs earning $10 a day or less, even cheap seats are out of reach.
Jabu Humphrey Ngoaile, a Johannesburg university student, said he would like to see a World Cup match, but had other priorities for his money such as tuition and feeding his son.
"Even working people will not, for instance, take half of their salary just to go watch a match," he said. "It's too much."
The bulk of the free tickets will be distributed by FIFA's sponsors: adidas, Coca-Cola, Emirates airline, Hyundai, Kia, Sony and Visa. They will focus on poor fans working in fields such as health care and education.
Construction workers who have been building stadiums and other infrastructure for the tournament will get 40,000 of the 120,000 free tickets.
The monthlong tournament kicks off in 300 days in Johannesburg, and chief local organizer Danny Jordaan has repeatedly been asked whether everything would be ready.
"The workers said yes, and we say thank you," Jordaan said at Friday's announcement of the free-ticket initiative.
Tens of thousands of stadium and transportation project workers went on strike for a week last month over wages, but Jordaan said Friday that time lost during the strike was being made up.
"There's floodlights at night and the workers are working," he said, speaking at the Soweto site where Nelson Mandela and other anti-apartheid activists gathered in 1955 to set out their vision of a better future.
Now a public plaza with a convention hall and street market, the site is a symbol of what South Africa has overcome. But the presence of shacks nearby shows the persistence of apartheid's legacy of poverty and inequality.
"There's a big segment of our society that will not be able to afford to buy a ticket" to the World Cup, Jordaan said.
A short drive from where he spoke, cement trucks and earth movers were kicking up dust as work continued on Soccer City, the World Cup's main stadium.
Jerry Lephalala, a 24-year-old fan who'd been looking for work for a year, said he'd just gotten a job on the site. Some of his $17 daily earnings -- the cost of a seat at the games -- would go to buy World Cup tickets for himself and friends, he said.
"We're going to host this one well," he said. "All the world is coming."

Started in 2010, RiverFest featured a variety of activities in and along the St. Joseph River as it passes the IPFW campus at 2101 Coliseum Blvd. E.
In years past, the June event had been held around the Venderly Family Bridge, on the river just north of Coliseum Boulevard. This year's festival, held on June 22, had to move most events farther north along the river because of construction work at the Coliseum entrance.
In her letter, Carwein linked the elimination of RiverFest — and additional upcoming cuts — to IPFW's enrollment decline, which resulted in a loss of $4 million in revenue.
Carwein said IPFW "had to take a hard look at projects and events subsidized by the university and evaluate them for alignment with our mission and priorities. As a result of this evaluation and our need to reduce�our budget, we will no longer host RiverFest."
However, she said IPFW "has proudly celebrated our community engagement through a wide variety of events and activities, such as the Omnibus Lecture Series and Tapestry: A Day for You, and we will continue our commitment to our community."
She also voiced excitement about the many events planned for the university's 50th anniversary celebration next year.
IPFW saw its 2013-2014 enrollment drop by 312 students and 5,516 credit hours, the university reported previously.
To stop that slide, the university plans to concentrate on efforts to recruit and retain students, said Nicole Wilkins, chief communications officer.
Projects and events are being evaluated "across the board" to make sure they meet the recruit-and-retain focus, Wilkins said, especially those like RiverFest that are subsidized by the university.
"By the end of the month, we should have a full plan in terms of how to deal with the $4 million shortfall," she said.
The enrollment declines at IPFW mirror trends at other universities around the country, Wilkins said.
She said there has been no discussion yet about whether another person or organization could carry on RiverFest without IPFW's involvement.

BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- The roster of important biotech catalysts for the remaining four months of 2012 is deep. FDA drug approvals, clinical trial results and new drug launches are going to keep investors busy all the way through New Year's Eve. We might even see more acquisitions to pad what's already been an active year on the deal-making front. The biotech sector is having a good year. The Nasdaq Biotechnology Index is up 34% year-to-date compared to a 12% rise in the S&P 500. Putting aside the outcome of the presidential election and the health of the U.S. and world economies, the biotech sector's ability to close out 2012 on a strong note will depend largely on the success or failure of upcoming regulatory and clinical events. Here's my take on the most important biotech catalysts heading into the home stretch of 2012: FDA Drug Approvals: More, please, and fast! Last week's U.S. approval of Xtandi, the new prostate cancer drug from Medivation ( MDVN), came three months earlier than expected. I hesitate to draw firm conclusions, but it certainly seems as if FDA is trying to complete drug reviews more quickly with the aim of pushing approvals out the agency's door ahead of schedule.
It certainly helps when drugs are submitted to FDA with data packages as strong and worthy of speedy approval like Xtandi. Looking at the calendar of pending drug approvals for the rest of 2012, I'd say Ariad Pharmaceuticals' ( ARIA) leukemia drug ponatinib has a decent shot for a quick review and earlier-than-expected approval -- perhaps as early as December, maybe January 2013. I'd put Exelixis' ( EXEL) thyroid cancer drug cabozantinib in the same boat. The "official" FDA approval decision date is Nov. 29 but the agency decided to cancel an advisory panel previously scheduled for Nov. 9. That might be a signal that FDA has no outstanding issues with cabozantinib, which could lead to a faster approval. Other pending FDA drug approval decisions of note: Biogen Idec's ( BIIB) first multiple sclerosis pill, BG12, on Dec. 28; Pfizer's ( PFE) tofacitinib, the first rheumatoid arthritis pill, on Nov. 21; and NPS Pharmaceuticals' ( NPSP) Gattex for short-bowel syndrome on Dec. 28 (preceded by an advisory panel meeting on Oct. 16.) I published a more complete FDA drug approval decision calendar in August so make sure to check it out.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- As part of the revamped Glory Road set to debut Saturday, Jan. 11, the NASCAR Hall of Fame announced the final exclusive sneak peek of the cars included in the exhibit. Marshall Teague's 1952 No. 6 Hudson Hornet will join the 18 historic cars that will comprise the exhibit. The reveal took place online on the NASCAR Hall of Fame's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages on Dec. 26. The NASCAR Hall of Fame will be closed from Jan. 6-10 to prepare for the special exhibit reveal and additional venue enhancements.
About Marshall Teague's 1952 Hudson Hornet
Marshall Teague built and drove the 1952 No. 6 Hudson Hornet sponsored by Hudson Motor Company, the first manufacturer in NASCAR history to support a race team. Teague's 1951 victory at Daytona Beach drew the attention of Hudson Motor Company leading to a sponsorship and allowing Teague to sign a second driver to his team -- 2013 NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee Herb Thomas. Teague went on to win at Daytona Beach in 1952, marking the first back-to-back wins on the beach-road course. Teague and Thomas won 10 races throughout the season, and Thomas finished second in points to champion Tim Flock. The Hudson Hornet's "step-down" frame design gave the car a low center of gravity greatly increasing its handling capabilities. Its "Twin H Power" carburetion system used two carburetors to power its potent six-cylinder flathead engine. The Hudson Hornet brand dominated NASCAR racing in the early 1950s with various drivers capturing 80 wins from 1951 through early 1955 and winning three consecutive championships in 1951, 1952 and 1953.
About Glory Road 2.0
Glory Road, which features 18 historic stock cars encircling the Great Hall, has served as one of the Hall's most prominent focal points since opening. Speedways from across the country are illustrated here as well, where guests can touch the texture of various tracks and feel the intense banking that drivers face week-to-week. Glory Road 2.0 will see 18 new cars that reflect the six generations of premier series race cars that have been driven and built by some of the sport's most celebrated drivers, owners and mechanics.
To mark this major exhibit revamp, the Hall provided an exclusive sneak peek of artifacts via in-person and social media unveils over the past several weeks. The nine debuts will culminate with a behind-the-scenes media preview of all 18 cars on Jan. 8. Stay tuned to the NASCAR Hall of Fame on nascarhall.com, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for sneak peek details of the NASCAR stock cars that will find a new home in this exhibit.

The U.S. District Court in Houston threw out a lawsuit on Thursday filed by the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF), which sought to bar Texas Gov. Rick Perry's involvement in a national prayer event.
Citing FFRF's lack of legal standing and a 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruling in favor of the National Day of Prayer, Judge Gray Miller readily dismissed the case.
FFRF said it plans to keep fighting by either appealing to the 5th Circuit or reconfigure the case to be heard again.
The suit had asked the court to declare as unconstitutional Perry's proclamation and involvement in "The Response," an Aug. 6 privately organized — but open to the public — prayer event to be held at Reliant Stadium in Houston.
Eric Bearse, spokesman for event said, "This is a tremendous victory for the First Amendment, and the right of any and all Americans to assemble and pray without interference from forces hostile to faith."
"The swiftness of the court's decision shows how ridiculous this case is," Tim Wildmon, president the American Family Association, said. "AFA is very thankful for Liberty Institute for handling this case and championing religious freedom for America."
Liberty Institute's President and CEO Kelly Shackelford said the ruling was a "complete and total victory for freedom and the First Amendment."
"This was an attack on the First Amendment rights of every American," he added, "and it failed miserably."
This IS still America, my home sweet home- I am praying against the spiritual wickedness in high places! God defend the right! (and I'm not talking about the 'political right', but the plain old R I G H T.)

Man charged in 2011 Raleigh bank robbery to serve 13 years
Posted September 19, 2012
Raleigh, N.C. — A former Henderson man who robbed a bank near North Carolina State University's campus in May of 2011 was sentenced Wednesday to more than 13 years in prison.
Rodney Williams Talley, 32, will serve 164 months followed by five years of probation, according to Thomas G. Walker, an attorney in the Eastern District of North Carolina.
On May 11, 2011, Talley robbed the Wachovia branch at 2600 Hillsborough St. of more than $40,000. Following the robbery, Raleigh police chased Talley in a blue minivan on Oberlin Road, Glenwood Avenue, Interstate 440, Wake Forest Road and Capital Boulevard.
Police used "stopsticks" on Capital Boulevard to end the pursuit, and the devices punctured the minivan's tires as the vehicle exited onto Wade Avenue.Talley lost control of the minivan near the intersection of Scales Street, where it crashed into a utility pole guy-wire, police said.
Talley tried to flee on foot but was arrested near Capital Boulevard, police said.
Talley pleaded guilty in 2000 to robbery with a dangerous weapon in connection with a 1998 Vance County robbery and served about nine months in prison, authorities said.

|Reviews for Oh God
| Purple Lex chapter 1 . 9/29/2012
I think this might be the best post-season 6 oneshot I have read yet. You capture the feel of everything perfectly. At the end, his repeating "Oh, God" is so beautifully poetic as it comes full circle that honestly, I am pleased that it stops there.
Deb jumping him read to be quite IC to me; she acts rashly, on impulse, and usually highly-emotionally. There was no dialogue except the first and last lines. In my opinion, it greatly added to how Deb and Dex are both reeling from shock, in their own ways. Loved every bit of it.
Also, I saw some people complaining about how wordy it is but hey, I really liked it. It felt like a narrative Dexter would have and all of the metaphors and philosophical examples fit well, to me. I guess it's up to personal preference.
| Spike is the BIG BAD chapter 1 . 9/28/2012
Well I wouldn't be complaining if you continued. ;) I loved it! It was great. I love how you described things. Awesome story!
| connielea chapter 1 . 9/22/2012
Very nice. Your writing style is vivid and captures the ambiance and the emotion very well. A nice take on those first few moments, and ties the other themes from the season in as well. Good job.
| vastgranada1 chapter 1 . 9/20/2012
Its god but during the second paragraph on through the end it seemed too detailed. Too detailed that I lost interest, a whole paragraph mention Travis with a blade skewered into him. It seem to drag on is my point. Its great but it dragged on instead of jumping to the next point it being Deb.
Call it negative or positive, great but tedious at the same time. I hope to see more of this though but swtching around point to point.
| LoveDexter11 chapter 1 . 9/20/2012
interesting...I loved the story...Too many words and not enough dialogue...would have liked to see a little more. It is an interesting story. You should add more chapters so we can see what would happen next
| Samara-chan chapter 1 . 9/19/2012
Very nice execution-I loved how she just ravaged him suddenly!
You have some very lovely description here too (I especially liked the simile "like a gory talisman"), however be careful of being a bit too wordy sometimes; particularly here: "My humiliation at being discovered, in flagrante, is rapidly replaced with the nauseating knowledge that my own deception cut her the deepest; indomitable Deb finally conquered by none other than duplicitous Dexter. Amplified by the ecclesiastical acoustics..." etc etc.
Adopting a less ambiguous style and throwing in a few eloquent phrases here and there will showcase said phrases more effectively. Basically, being too verbose can make your prose seem overly saturated in "big", unnecessary words (aka purple prose), and stutters the narration's flow. Otherwise, you did a great job. I thoroughly enjoyed the read!

Hostility on Senior Advisory Board leads to member's resignation
Alice Pickering
Linwood Reporter
At the Nov. 26 Linwood Town Board meeting, Supervisor Carol Searing, liaison to the Senior Advisory Board, presented that group's recommended choice to fill the Senior Coordinator position. The SAB on Nov. 25 interviewed five finalists for the position, selected from a pool of 25 applicants. The opening came about due to the resignation of Judy Hanna.
The Town Board discussed the preferred candidate. Supervisor Mike Halliday supported the SAB's first choice. His motion included a wage of $18 an hour for a work week of between 20-25 hours. The board authorized Searing to make the job offer. The candidate will be named once an opportunity to respond has been provided. Searing will report to the board at its Dec. 10 meeting.
Three applicants for positions on the SAB were submitted on one "ticket" during a Nov. 18 meeting, but the vote of the current SAB members was split 4-4, so no additions were made, according to Searing.
Searing described discord at the SAB meetings, including raised voices and dissension among board members. Halliday observed that there continues to be a lot of "he said, she said" comments about what transpires at the SAB meetings.
Laura Hermann resigned from the SAB during the Nov. 26 Town Board meeting. She said she felt threatened by angry comments made by some members. Even with continued mediation between the SAB and representatives from the Anoka Mediation Service, she felt she could not remain on the board.
Mediation sessions are ongoing and Supervisor Phil Osterhus recommended they continue. The sessions are closed, with only board members and the mediators attending.
Kris Millerbernd, wife of Supervisor Bob Millerbernd, commented after attending at least one SAB regular meeting that the objective mediators should be attending the SAB's regular meetings to observe the conduct and dynamics.
Accountant's status
The Town Board approved full-time employment status for accountant and secretary Pam Olson. The change from probationary status was based on her on-job performance.
Supervisors applauded her work, which includes streamlining of processes for long-term savings, identifying errors to secure refunds, helping recover a duplicate park dedication payment of substantial size, and recovering state sales tax from which the township should have been exempt. In addition, Olson has fully implemented the Small City and Town Accounting System in anticipation of the upcoming audit process.
Firefighters honored
Officers of the Linwood Fire Department were set to recognize four firefighters at a special ceremony at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 4, at the Linwood Fire Hall. Chief Darryl Ballman said their quick thinking and skills helped on medical responses in which at least one life was saved. A survivor of one of the rescues will discuss the experience at the event, which is open to the public.
The board approved four new candidates for firefighters, as recommended by Ballman. They will participate in training sessions with the other volunteers before beginning training at the Anoka Training Academy.
Ballman also indicated that Olson has saved the department about $1,000 on the department budget by determining that subscription to cellphone service as a department is not necessary. Most volunteers already have their own phones.
Linwood Fire Hall will host Breakfast with Santa at 9 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 7.
Other business
In other business, Road and Bridge Committee Chair Bob Beckman reported about action to complete road shoulder work in the Lyons Den Development. This has been a drawn-out process from the beginning of the project, and there has been no response from Sherco Development. A Nov. 18 deadline for the township to take action has passed. The township plans to move on the project, but completion this season may be tied to the weather.
Beckman also reported that a trapper has been hired to remove beaver in the stream between Linwood and Island lakes. A dam has blocked the stream.

Almost everything is wrapped up in the epic Apple v. Samsung patent trial except for the jury's job. Both sides officially finished making their case on Friday, and with the exception of some jury instruction, the next step is for the jury to start weighing a decision. But wait, there's one more thing: The chiefs of Apple(s AAPL) and Samsung are going to try to talk out their differences via phone one last time on Monday, reports Bloomberg. It's a last-ditch effort, and one that's very likely going to be fruitless.
This final negotiating effort is court-ordered. Judge Lucy Koh basically said it was in both companies' best interests if Apple CEO Tim Cook and Samsung CEO Kwon Oh Hyun were able to resolve the patent dispute before letting the jury decide. But it's pretty unlikely they're going to suddenly be able to work out their differences in private. After all, they've spent millions of dollars on damage calculations, expert witnesses and lawyers fees.
Though the legal drama going down in San Jose, Calif. hasn't offered the most flattering view of either company, Apple, particularly, has taken a huge gamble with this trial: through executive testimony, the company has revealed secrets about the way it operates, product planning and design, all in an effort to punish and make an example out of Samsung for imitating its product designs too closely.
That's why it's hard to believe it would squander the ability to exact a legal judgment by opting for resolution through secret negotiations. It's already put it all out there. Apple doesn't want to settle; it wants the court to make clear what the consequences are for following a little too closely in its footsteps.

Michelle Rodriguez Is Tired Of Hollywood Remakes
The star of The Fast and the Furious, Fast & Furious, and, The Fast and the Furious 5, Michelle Rodriguez, says she is sick of Hollywood movie remakes!
The Avatar star and past inmate told Showbiz Spy, "I think the industry needs to wake up and stop doing remakes because I'm kind of falling asleep…They need to start doing movies about something other than comic books and stuff that come out in the Eighties. We've exploited that already. Let's do something new." Not everyone can be in a "completely original" 3D, 15-years-in-the-making movie, Michelle.
Last Tuesday, Michelle shut her mouth for once and wrapped it around a lollipop coming from a doctor's visit in Beverly Hills. Her new movie, Machete, is based off of Robert Rodriguez's fake movie trailer of Grindhouse. I guess we could call Machete more of an expansion rather than remake. But, if her upcoming movie, The Jesuit, is anything like The Mission, I am going to be pissed!

Kristen Stewart is reportedly convinced that she can't compete with Katy Perry for Robert Pattinson's affections, with the Twilight star said to be worried about her ex's musical connection with the Firework singer.
Kristen and Rob split last month after a tumultuous few months which stretched back to KStew's affair with married director Rupert Sanders almost a year ago.
Since the split, Rob has been spotted spending an awful lot of time with the pair's mutual pal Katy Perry, sparking rumours of a romance born out of friendship. And according to inside sources Kristen seems resigned to the fact that her ex and Katy are made for each other:
"[Kristen] knows Rob's met Katy's parents now, and seeing them on dates is really hard," an insider claims to Heat magazine. "She knows that when it comes to Rob's passion for music, she can't compare to Katy, so seeing them laughing away at a concert is devastating."
Kristen is said to have given up on her romance with Robert Pattinson following Katy Perry hook up rumours (WENN)
Earlier this month, Katy and Robert attended a Björk concert together where they tried to keep things low-key, even arriving separately to divert attention. However the source claims that once the pair were inside rocking out, it was hard for them to keep their blossoming relationship under wraps:
"They were clearly into each other," a source explained. "They were standing very close together giggling into each other's ears - they barely stopped touching."
The insider adds that Katy is well aware of Rob's recent relationship drama and is attempting to keep things "fun and light" after a waring few months with Kristen:
"At the moment, Katy's trying to keep things fun and light - hence the concert, rather than a romantic dinner. They're not at the boyfriend-girlfriend stage. They're just friends who have been attracted to each other for a while, are single and can finally do something about it."
Has Katy Perry stepped up her friendship with Robert Pattinson?
Meanwhile it was reported earlier this week that 23-year-old Kristen is furious with Rob ater he seemingly moved on so quickly with one of their joint pals: "Kristen was never fully comfortable with Rob and Katy's relationship. She always suspected he had a soft spot for her," a source told Grazia.
"She's furious that the pair seem to have got together without so much as a word to her. She seems paranoid that something could have gone on before she split with Rob."

'Camp Gyno' Takes The Embarrassment Out Of A Girls First Period [Video]
'The Red Badge Of Courage' might be the single best part of 'Camp Gyno' at first, but when you realize what the video is actually doing, you'll see that it accomplishes way more than getting a few laughs.
As a good strong man, I can honestly say that I will never EVER be capable of understanding how weird the time of a first period must be. In fact, I'll say that no man anywhere will ever understand it . . . I'm not even sure that all girls understand it!
The whole point of this video is to take the embarrassment or shame out of having your first period, and it's being hailed as a huge success. It's one of the rare moments where pure hilarity blends perfectly with a valuable lesson.
I have a four year old daughter, and I know that this will eventually be a topic in my house. I have no idea what I'm going to say or do, but I hope that my girl will have confidence (and sense of humor) to embrace her 'Red Badge Of Courage'!

Central High Coach Brian Williams of Memphis, Tenn., called it "a moment of weakness" when star defensive tackle Frank Herron nearly spurned LSU by committing to Texas during a surprise visit to Austin last weekend. But Monday, Williams ended any speculation, announcing that the 6-foot-5, 280-pound defensive tackle would sign, as expected, with LSU on Wednesday.
"When we talked today, it came up that LSU was the school he wanted in the beginning and it is the school he ended up with," Williams said.
Prior to the Texas visit, Williams had been intimately involved with Herron's recruitment. However, when Longhorns running backs coach Larry Porter approached Herron directly about making a visit, he obliged.
Meanwhile, as news of the trip spread, so did rampant speculation on message boards and social media sites that Herron had already committed to Texas, which Williams denied.
"He just got a little sidetracked," Williams said of the visit. "After talking to him and his mom today, he got it cleared up."
Herron's family was supportive when he committed to LSU in June and wasn't happy to see him considering a change.
With LSU's recent exodus along the defensive front (early NFL draft entrants Bennie Logan, Barkevious Mingo, Sam Montgomery and senior Josh Downs), Herron is expected to challenge for playing time as a freshman next season.
Said Williams, "We are on the way to get his suit (for National Signing Day) right now."

There will be no coupons in the Sunday paper for the next TWO weeks because they are both holiday weekends. But, there is good news. The January 1, 2012 paper should be loaded with coupons. There may be up to 5 inserts that day!
Click HERE for a preview of the specific coupons we will probably have in our inserts on the weeks there are coupons. Although some of these coupons may be a little different than the ones we receive, many will be the same.
If you buy the paper at a store on Sunday (instead of getting a subscription), make sure you buy it INSIDE the store, not from the paper boxes. You want to make sure your paper has the coupons in it before you pay, which you can't do if you are buying from the paper box.
Happy shopping everyone!

With the New York Motor Show just around the corner, a smattering of new car news is on its way next week. But if you just can't wait for another dose of motoring news, grab a cuppa, sink into the sofa, and catch up on some of the stories you might have missed on PH last week!
Loud'n'proud they may have been, but the selection of American motors on PH this week certainly demonstrated the diversity of the US's car scene. First up, the late, great Ricardo Montalban – aka Star Trek baddie Khan – showed off his lovely brown-over-brown Chrysler Cordoba in our Ad Break. Bringing us more up-to-date, Top Gear USA host and rallycross driver Tanner Foust went for a hoon around the 'ring in the daft, but brilliant, Ford SVT Raptor. It was hardly the best thing for the job, though – perhaps he'd have been more at home in an SRT Viper Time Attack, a new limited-run special edition that sets out to be the track-focused Viper. It wasn't all noise and gas guzzling, though; news of the rebirth of Detroit Electric suggests there'll soon be a rival for Tesla in the sports electric marketplace.
There's been plenty of Jaguar-related content on the site this week, chief among which being the splendid news that Jaguar's to launch a new XJR at the New York show. The news came just as we were publishing our road test of the new XF Sportbrake Diesel S – a car that manages to take the utilitarian art of diesel estatery and turn it into something rather special. We've also had more news of the fantastic-looking Lyonheart K, with production now slated to commence later this year. And if older Jags were more to your liking, a TWR XJS in action took centre stage in this week's pic of choice.
Fancy something a little more exclusive than the norm? Well, we had not one, but two cars that'd fit the bill on the site this week. First up was Jim Glickenhaus's latest creation, the P33; no pictures yet, but Glickenhaus himself paid the forums a visit to answer a few questions about the new car. You'll struggle to buy one, though; just the one is slated to be made! You'll have more luck if you fancy getting hold of Pininfarina's latest creation, the Sergio, though; a few more examples – though, quite literally, a few more – are set to be produced.
Lots of news about fantastic PH-related events this week, with perhaps the biggest and best-known being Goodwood. Porsche is set to be the star of the show, and duly revealed its 'Project 50' in celebration. Ford, too, is making some waves with the UK debut of its FF1, the Ecoboost-powered single-seater track car that might – just – make it into limited-run production. Elsewhere, news of this year's Wilton House Classic & Supercars made the site, while we also brought you information on discounted entry for PHers at this year's Donington Historic Festival.
There were, of course, several tidbits of news that stood out on their own this week; our interview with Ian Cook, artistic talent and thoroughly nice chap to boot, being one of them. Dan, meanwhile, spotted a rather unsung PH favourite, the Mazda CX-7. We've also had a run-down on the PH-worthy parts of the chancellor's budget statement, plus a rather extensive leak of Merc's new CLA45 AMG, which will make its official debut next week.
Features aplenty this week. We started with a PH Heroes feature on the Ferrari F50 back on Monday, and at the other end of the financial scale, we've also had a twin-test of the Renault Megane 265 Cup and the Subaru BRZ, in an attempt to answer the question of whether fast or fun is the best way to spend £25,000. Meanwhile, PH2 correspondent Jon Urry's been testing the BMW F800GT, and while he's come back with plenty of praise, he does wonder whether it's an answer to a question nobody's asking.
Various blogs from Team PH this week; first up we've had Dan's thoughts on cyclists versus drivers while moonlighting on the Guardian's bike blog (yes, really!) and then on more regular turf with a look ahead to this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed. Meanwhile Monkey's been talking Top Trumps, and remembering the unique Mercedes-influenced Isdera Imperator.It's not the only Merc he's been getting excited about, though; his video this week brought us the astonishing sight and sound of the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series.
Next Week on PH...

Could 'Captain Marvel' Connect The MCU With Netflix's 'Jessica Jones'?
There are many aspects of the Marvel comics we'll never see incorporated into the MCU. and relationships fall by the wayside, not to mention the . But there's a lot more of the MCU yet to come, and there are some vital connections yet to be established between Marvel's sprawling cinematic universe.
So let's talk about how Netflix's Defenders could be brought into the films, and why there's a golden opportunity to do this in the upcoming Captain Marvel film.
In the comics, Jessica Jones and Carol Danvers were old friends. Sharing a love of alcohol and punching jerks in the face, the two characters have a really interesting friendship, one which we almost got to see in the show Jessica Jones.
Hero Support: Carol's Impact On Jessica
When Jessica first fell under Kilgrave's influence in the comics, she was sent to the Avengers mansion to try and kill the heroes. But this mission went awry when Jessica recognized Carol Danvers as Ms Marvel, and the Avengers managed to subdue Jessica long enough to help her recover from Kilgrave's control. When Jessica started Alias Investigations she frequently reached out to Carol as part of her detective work.
The two had a strong friendship, which helped Jessica overcome her PTSD from being mind controlled by Kilgrave. Of course, many of these details are different in the show. Jessica's ability to resist Kilgrave's powers is a crucial plot point, and it's probably good that the Avengers weren't involved in this part of the story. However, as showrunner Melissa Rosenberg revealed to IGN, Carol was initially part of Season 1.
"Back when it was at ABC Network, I did use Carol Danvers. But between then and when it ended up on Netflix, you know, the MCU shifted, and it also shifted away from the universe in the [comic] book. So there was a lot that I had to move away from, just in terms of sheer plot, and Carol Danvers got her own movie."
This is all well and good, and it seems to be a part of the MCU's history. But could Captain Marvel connect the MCU movies with the Netflix shows?
Uniting The Defenders & Avengers
Lately, between the MCU films and the TV shows. At one point we were expecting the Netflix Defenders to team up with the Avengers in one of the upcoming movies, but now the tone and style of the Netflix shows seems too disparate from the films. Not to mention, the Netflix shows very much have a self contained story.
But still, if the Marvel bosses did want to bring the corners of their empire closer together, Captain Marvel could be the perfect opportunity to do this. There's still a lot we don't know about Jessica's past after all, and it's entirely possible that she could have encountered Carol before she fell under Kilgrave's influence.
Naturally, Carol's role in Jessica's story was taken up by Trish Walker, but there's still plenty of ways for the two women to have an impact on each other's lives. It would be great to see a cameo from Jessica in Captain Marvel, perhaps as a friend of Carol's .
If Carol does know Jessica, we could have an interesting inversion of their story in the comics — after all, Jessica would have become an urban legend before Carol's superhero origin story. This would make for an interesting relationship between the two women, as Carol draws from Jessica's experience.
But beyond the strength of their relationship, this could serve to establish a connection between the movies and the Netflix shows, which would set up the worlds to collide later. Captain Marvel is set to release between the two parts of Avengers: Infinity War — Carol's connection to Jessica could lead to Carol calling on backup from the Defenders in the fight against Thanos in Infinity War Part Two.
Ok, maybe it's wishful thinking, but we're still hoping that the two superhero teams could unite. This would be something we've never seen before in TV and movie history, as the two parts of the Marvel universe cross over in an awesome event. And Carol's friendship with Jessica could be the perfect gateway to making this actually happen.
