In 1944, LIFE photographer Peter Stackpole was in the Pacific, covering the ugly, protracted Battle of Saipan. The battle proper lasted less than a month, with American soldiers and Marines largely taking control of the 44-square-mile island. But Japanese fighters dug in and resisted for months, with one small contingent of Imperial Army officers and troops refusing to give up until December 1945—long after Japan had officially surrendered to the Allies.
In John Loengard's classic 1998 book, LIFE Photographers: What They Saw, Stackpole discusses the picture above, and how he came to make it:
On Saipan I witnessed suicides during the very last of the fighting at the south end of the island. Japanese propaganda had told the native population that they ought to take their own lives because the Americans were going to torture anyone they captured. That wasn't the case at all, but I saw girls, all holding hands, jump off the reef in the ocean, trying to drown themselves.
In a truckload of civilians that the Marines had rounded up, I saw a little Japanese kid with his arm badly mangled and some makeshift bandages on it. The kid was about to be in a state of shock, and just then one of those observation planes landed on the road. I took the boy over to the plane and said to the pilot, "Is there any way you can take this kid . . . where he can get medical treatment?" He didn't want to at first. Then he looked at the kid and said, "Sure." The kid sat on his lap, I took one picture, and the plane took off.
Hours later, when I got back to press headquarters, my colleagues from the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Daily News—friends of mine—said, "You should have been here when that pilot brought that kid in. What a picture!"
"I know all about it" I said. And I was denounced for doing it.
LOENGARD: Denounced?
STACKPOLE: Robert Sherrod, a Time-Life correspondent, let it be known that I had staged a phony and [he] got it killed, I think. The picture never ran, but if I had it to do today, I would do it over again.

We are very fortunate to report no damage at Ormsby Hill from Sandy moving through southern Vermont.
After losing power for eight hours in a September thunderstorm, we ordered a stationary generator. It will power our well pump, hot water heaters, furnace, and lights at the inn. You can be assured a comfortable stay regardless of the weather outside. This mind-easing machine should be operational by the end of the week.

For $5, you can now download or stream a copy of the 60-minute show, which was taped last year at Washington D.C.'s Warner Theatre, and as Ansari points out in this free promo video, that's substantially less than you would pay to buy it on DVD. Hey, he's right! Fuck you, DVDs—get a real job. Anyway, we'll have a review of Dangerously Delicious up later this morning, which means you have only this small window wherein you can watch it and formulate your own opinion before it's sullied by criticism. Take advantage.

Slouchy Leather Boot
Pick up in store | Choose a Store
The Fit Expert
Ali from our New York store says:
Runs pretty short; most people bump up a 1/2 size. The calf runs mostly true to narrow.
More Colours
The Kanawa is a luscious calf-high boot in the Hopeful Family: a hybrid family using the last, fit, and soles of The Hope Family, the leathers of The Prepare Family, and the 2.25" leather wrapped heels of The Thanks Family - talk about a threesome! Featuring a soft rubber sole, pebbled Portuguese leathers, YKK inside zippers, and a natural footshape, The Kanawa sings songs softly for the entire World. F is for all things that give Hope.

I have these in red (burgundy) and can't get enough!
I live in the Northwest Territories and our winters are pretty brutal, so, I generally take these to work with me so I don't ruin them.
Ps... I'm buying these in black next!
My girls in the Edmonton store know I can't resist!
Fluevog Kanawa rocks!
I am in love.
Disappointing sole
There is hope for zaftig calves!
These are PERFECT!
Gorgeous boots! (Not as green as the picture)
Great boots.
In Love!
Best Boots EVER
First pair!
Ah-mazing in EVERY way!
Ryan in Denver was extremely helpful and informative regarding the ability to heat up the soles on a cold day, and took them away for their first spray down of the All Protector Spray. I probably even terrified him a little for my level of enthusiasm, excitement and love of these boots.
postman will always be ringing!
I just needed black boots. But as soon as I took them out of the box-- another precisely crafted work of art.
These are small creative pieces, all of them.
And Feather, once again had them shipped in a day. Ever helpful as always, she should be made creative director but then you would lose a fantastic sales representative!
Thanks again!
Looking forward to those red Bartolis next month!
First sight!
Wish there is more size 5 in the Boston location!
However, I happened to try this boot size 5 and it was perfect! Tad tight on the calf since needs some breaking down. I already asked Fluevog to stretch it for me. Maybe need to go back again? Other than that, it is soo comfortable! Then I should be able to tuck jeans underneath the boots! Can't wait for that.
These boots made my day!
Best boots ever
They're still on my feet
how high
you can't but love them....
they are just the perfect boots (except for that very-true get-a-half-size-up thing). you seriously will not want to take them off.
Just had to have them!
Do not doubt these boots...they will not disappoint.
Perfect boots!
Run very small
best boots in the world.
Love, love my new boots!
Amazing Service, Amazing Boots!
Once the boots arrived, I was in love. They're just as lovely as they are on the site, and the leather is gorgeous. On Alan's recommendation, I got a 7 instead of my usual 6.5, which was the right call. I have 14.5-inch calves, so the boots *just* zip. Because the leather is so supple, the shaft wasn't uncomfortable, though.
Bottom line: these boots are gorgeous and you should buy them.
Great boots
Wore them out of the store
They were really not what I had been looking for, (was thinking tall lace-ups but don't have the patience after all!) and once my foot got in there that was it. They look amazing with absolutely everything, the leather was supple and didn't require any breaking in, and they are incredibly comfortable (hard to find shoes for this high-arched girl). Very, very pleased.
Gloves for feet!

At least the Jets know they are more than a kicker away.
The last time the team made a playoff run, they brought everyone back and drafted Mike Nugent. This time, there will be major changes. Here are some players that could be playing elsewhere next season.
Safety Kerry Rhodes: The New York Post writes that Rhodes' chances of returning are as likely "Rex Ryan running the New York Marathon." Ryan had a private conversation with Rhodes Monday he wouldn't speak about. But look for them to try to trade him. Ryan wants physical play from his safety and Rhodes is due a $2 million bonus in March.
Cornerbacks Lito Sheppard and Donald Strickland: The team is expected to release both players. So the Jets need a lot of help in the secondary.
Vernon Gholston: As mentioned in today's one-liners, the Newark Star-Ledger reports that "some in the organization are ready to move on" from the sixth pick in the 2008 draft. They could cut him with cap ramifications . . . since there won't be a cap.
Thomas Jones: We wrote about this Sunday; the team faces a difficult choice considering the veteran running back's salary.
Add it all up, and it's clear the Jets won't be standing pat in what is shaping up to be a very competitive AFC East.

World Series: The underdog kids who swept the vaunted Drysdale-Koufax Dodgers are old-timers now, but the memories, and satisfaction, from the Orioles' first crown remain fresh
Who's greatest in pecking order?
Debate: For the unofficial title of greatest Oriole, many with ties to the club agree that Ripken, Frank Robinson, Brooks Robinson and Eddie Murray are on the short list.
A milestone for Brooks Robinson
CAN IT REALLY be that Sunday will mark 40 years since "the most important and beloved Oriole of modern times" first arrived here? It's true. On May 28, 1955, Brooks Calbert Robinson Jr. -- on the night of his high school graduation -- signed with the Orioles for a bonus of $4,000 and immediately...
In '77, Brooks offered final thrill
Brooks Robinson was crowding 40, but on that April night in 1977, his legions of fans were able to banish the depressing thought of his age from their minds. Robinson stood in front of his locker after the game, smiling. With a wink, he said, "The kid can still play." The kid had one more home...

Deborah A. Miranda Thomas H. Broadus Professor of English
Payne 124
Website - Curriculum Vitae
Deborah A. Miranda's primary teaching and research topics include American Literature that is off the canonical map - in other words, contemporary American Lit by authors from the margins of U.S. culture. This literature typically approaches America culture from directions previously unconsidered, as we see the world through the eyes of Native Americans, Chicanos and Chicanas, African Americans, Japanese Americans, Chinese Americans, Appalachians, Southern Americans, and more. Contexts such as environmental issues, economic limitations, linguistic barriers/advantages, and historical trauma are all explored in voices typically not heard in mainstream literature. Many of Professor Miranda's courses are cross-listed with Women's Studies, Shepherd Poverty Program, Latin American & Caribbean and African American Studies programs and, with permission of each program's director and Professor Miranda, may be taken for credit in those areas.
Professor Miranda is in demand as a guest speaker on these topics, and has lectured at numerous universities, including Ohio State University, UC Santa Cruz, Bard College, University of Illinois at Springfield, University of Texas at San Antonio, Aquinas College, UC California at Los Angeles, Oregon State University, Willamette College, Seattle University, University of California at Long Beach, Colby College, Texas Women's University, Texas A & M University, Kenyon College, Syracuse University, SUNY Oneonta, and many others.
PhD. in English, University of Washington (2001)
M.A. in English, University of Washington (spring 2001)
B.S., Teaching Moderate Special Needs Children, Wheelock College (1983)
Professor Miranda has studied creative writing with numerous authors, including Grace Paley, Mimi Khalvati, Olga Broumas, Dorothy Allison, Ruth Behar, Leslie Marmon Silko, Linda Hogan, Norma Cantu, Norma Alarcon, Kristin Naca. She is a member of Macondo, the writer's workshop founded by Sandra Cisneros, and the Native Writing Circle of the Americas.
Native American fiction, poetry, memoir, creative writing. Women's literature. Gay/Lesbian/Transgendered/Queer/2-Spirit literature. California Indian literatures arising out of the Mission, Mexican and American eras. Hand-made books. Reclaimation of archival materials as resources for healing from historical trauma. Chicana/Chicano Literature.
Professor Miranda's 2012-2013 sabbatical research was funded by a Lenfest Sabbatical Grant for her project, The Hidden Stories of Isabel Meadows and Other California Indian Lacunae.

NHL Game Day: 10/31 Devils at Lightning
Niitty steals a point, and the Lightning shooters continue to make fools of themselves in the shootout.
Antero Niittymaki was lights out tonight, stopping 37 of 38 before going 3 for 4 in the shootout session for the shootout loss. He deserved a lot better from the guys in front of him.
First Period
Second Period
NJ 0:50, Zajac 6 (Fraser)
Third Period
TB 4:34, Stamkos 10 (St. Louis, Malone)
NJ- Clarkson
The Lightning absolutely sleepwalked through the first two periods of the game, with the exception perhaps of the final five minutes of the first period. It was terrible. Shots were 28-9 after 40 minutes, for New Jersey. Without Nittymaki, this game would have easily been a blowout. I don't get the inconsistency from this Lightning team from game to game, period to period, and situation to situation. And as far as the shootouts go, if I were Tocchet I'd ban dekes from the star players. Tell them to shoot. At least force the goaltenders to make a save.
Steve Downie had 5 penalty minutes, 1 shot, and 4 hits in 11:08.
Drew Miller was -1 in 8:51.
Zenon Konopka had 2 penalty minutes, 3 hits, and was 50% on draws in 11:04.
James Wright had 2 penalty minutes and 1 hit in 14:20.
Victor Hedman was -1 with 1 hit and 1 blocked shot in 26:24. I'm going to reiterate my request from the last game: I'd like to see him get more shots, particularly on the power play. They need to get him off this pass-first mentality. The scouting report from the Swedish Elitserien is that Victor possesses a world class one-timer. Nothing else is working on the PP (an ugly 0-for-3 tonight). Try a different weapon.

amol, it's most probably due to hlsearch support, which scans the whole file for matches in order to highlight them. If you disable it from Tools|Options|ViEmu, it'll probably go away. I also guess it's happening with large files, as it's not very noticeable with smaller ones.
A better scanning strategy, with incremental scanning as you page up or down through the file, should be the *real* solution to this, though. It's a possibility in a future version.
Please let me know whether it's something else (of course, complex regular expressions can cause this too).

Mysterious flood strikes North Vietnam
A severe flood of the Red River in North Vietnam kills an estimated 100,000 people on this day in 1971. This remarkable flood was one of the century's most serious weather events, but because the Vietnam War was going on at the time, relatively few details about the disaster are available.
The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) compiled a list of the 20th century's top weather and climate events, based upon their natural wonder and impact on people. On the list were such major disasters as the Bangladesh cyclones of 1970 and 1991, both of which killed more than 100,000 people. The "Great Smog of London" of 1952 and the 1972 blizzard in Iran also made the list. Notably, not a single incident occurring in North American was included.
The Red River flood in North Vietnam made NOOA's list even though relatively little is known about how or why approximately 100,000 people perished in the disaster. During the Vietnam War, information from North Vietnam was neither plentiful nor reliably accurate. What is known is that the Red River, which runs near the capital city of Hanoi, experienced a "250-year" flood. Torrential rains simply overwhelmed the dyke system around the heavily populated delta area, which is not far above sea level. As well as directly killing thousands of people, the flood also wiped out valuable crops, causing further hardship, especially as it occurred during wartime.
Though many more reservoirs have since been built in the Hanoi region, the area remains vulnerable to flooding.

2014 Rondo (Carens)
Thanks for the info conwelpic. I wonder if we will get the stickshift that is pictured. Our 2007 and 2011 Rondos have been great vehicles, I just wish for a stickshift.0
specifications and dimensions should probably be released when they officially announce the vehicle at the Paris Auto Show, but as to way they will be equipped for Canada will probably not be made available till 2nd quarter of next year.0
more pictures surfacing on the web, interesting set up for the 2nd row seats which also slide.
Still have your Rondo, conwelpic?0
sorry for the delay, been away for a few weeks. No I don't have it, I traded it last November on a 2012 Soul 4u. Purchased from the same dealer - they have treated me very well over the 4 years I owned the Rondo. The Rondo was great and very reliable which was the reason I bought another Kia, didn't even consider anything else.
some specs I've found for the 2014 model comparison to the current 2012 Rondo.
Length - 178.1" vs current 178.9
Width - 71.1" vs 71.7"
height - 63.4" vs 65.0"
ground clearance - 5.9" vs 6.1"
wheelbase - 108.3" vs 106.3"0
this new version will be available in Canada, here's a quote from Kia Canada on there latest sales announcement:
Kia also revealed the all-new 2014 Rondo Urban Utility Vehicle at the Paris Motor Show last week. The all-new Rondo will be launched next year, as a Canadian-specific model in North America, offering the flexibility of up to seven passengers and versatility to meet the needs of growing families0
By the pictures above, this is a 2013 Rondo?0
there is no 2013 model in the Rondo.0
Kia Canada says the new Rondo is scheduled for spring 2013 release.0
Canadian specification and features have not yet been released.0
the all new Rondo will have its North American introduction at the Toronto Auto Show in February0
the Gwangju factory has made the change over from the old model to the new in January as they only built 82 units for export for that month. This plant has had an extensive expansion to increase production by 120,000 vehicles a year.0
unveiling at the show and will be available with a 6 speed manual standard
http://ca.autoblog.com/2013/02/14/2014-kia-rondo-receives-north-american-reveal-- at-toronto-auto-sh/0
a few more shots:
9394 VancouverPosts: 74city fuel economy has been the only complaint i have with my 09 Rondo, can't wait to see the EPA rating on this 2.0L + 6AT combo.2016 eSoul - All Electric - Zero Emission0
(these standard features it would seem, you had to get the EX model before), so maybe there will no longer be a LX model?
Standard features:
- 6 speed manual transmission
- manual air conditioning
- 2nd row heating and cooling vents
- power windows
- heated front seats
- 6 speaker audio system
- keyless entry with power locks
- black cloth
- flex-steering (3 settings)
Available features:
- heated steering wheel
- heated 2nd row seating
- cooled ventilated drivers seat
- auto dual-zone climate control
- 10-way power drivers seat with extendable cushion optimizing thigh support
- supervision instrument cluster
- large LCD screen
- integrated side window blinds
- black or black/beige 2-tone high-grade leather
- rear parking sensors and rear-view camera
- automatic 6 speed transmission0
Will the new Rondo have the high seating position like the old Rondo?? The new Rondo has
a lower overall height. Hope they kept the high seat, as I really like the look of this vehicle.0
I would presume so, the lower height is about the same as my Soul, which also has the high seating position and one of the main reasons I like it (and also the Rondo which I owned before). However, as I was unable to sit in it at the Toronto Auto Show so I can't confirm.
It does have much more flexible seating compared to the old model and a 2" longer wheelbase to help with interior space.0
Thanks conwelpic. Almost bought a Rondo in 2008, but really didn't like the front end styling -grille headlights etc - ended up buying a SUV (Santa Fe),
mainly to get a higher seat. We really just need a compact hatchback with
occasional seating for 5, and space for the dog in the back, but as seniors
with arthritic knees and hips, we need a higher seat for easier entry/exit.
This new Rondo looks very promising.0
you almost fit my description as I too am a senior and wanted that higher seating with ease of entry and exit. However, I did buy the 2008 Rondo EX with the 2.4L, as at the time I just found the Sorento and Sportage too big a vehicle (bulk-wise) - still do.
I presume you are located in Canada0
Conwelpic my old friend, did you take these photos yourself? Well done, nice and clear with especially good lighting so we can see the details of the interior. Nice looking machine. I especially love the idea of a 6sp manual, about the only thing I wish our 07 and 11 Rondo's were available with. But no V6? It seems the movement to smaller engines is well underway.0
hi, its been a while Yes I took those photos at the Toronto auto show. It was a bit awkward as it was locked with just the front windows open and surrounded with a glass fence. I was looking forward to going over it in detail due to my past ownership of one.
I was checking back and my '08 Rondo with the 2.4L was only 162hp at the time and never encountered any power problems with it but then mine was only a 5-seater model. I have heard rumours that a 2.4L maybe an optional engine but at a later time, but no confirmation on that. Still haven't see the Canadian specs for this new model but will post as soon as they become available to me.
Hard to compare old to new as they are so dramatically different vehicles, the only carry over is the name. That front windshield has a massive slope on it (one thing that really stood out to me when I first saw it), so they must have done extensive wind tunnel testing on it. It's the same height as my Soul, its the virtually the same length as the old one but with a 2" longer wheelbase which has got to help with interior room.0
the all new Carens/Rondo won the prestigious Red Dot design award in Europe.
The new model is now in full production starting in February, so we should see it on our Canadian shores in the next month or two.0
Here's the MSRP for the Canadian models:
LX AT 7-seat - $25,195
EX AT 7-seat - $28,195
EX Luxury - $32,195
if any Canadians want spec details, let me know and I will post it.0
new microsite on the all new Rondo http://www.kia.ca/rondo/index.html0
Hey conwelpic,
I just looked at the site you mentioned. Pretty nice vehicle! I signed up for more info. Too bad there isn't a V6, since both our Rondo's were V6's, but I wonder if the 6sp manual would be available in the EX? Hmmmmm.0
Sorry but no V6 anymore, just one engine now the 2.0L Nu GDI and also the 6 speed manual will only be available in the base LX 5-seater model. The 6 speed auto does have the manual shift capability like the older previous transmission. However the new model is 300 lbs lighter than the previous one. I have full details info, so any specific question just ask.0

Karuizawa Cask-Strength "3rd & 4th Release" for Taiwan
1st and the 2nd, so we thought it was high time we tried the 3rd and the 4th.
There's more than just family resemblance here. The 3rd and 4th release are eerily similar – the whisky equivalent of identical twins – but that's one of the things that makes this series so interesting, the fact that one has to adapt to smaller dimensions (a bit like Alice in Wonderland) to find the characteristics that set the releases apart and give them individuality. On the nose, the 4th release is a bit more immediately attractive. Compared with its twin, you get more sultana raisins, strawberry sauce and overripe peaches here, as well as slight hints of smoke (humidor, smoked mackerel) and wood polish. It's a bit rounder and smoother – sexier – than the 3rd release. There, you get a bit more of the character of the spirit, hints of pommeau and young-ish armagnac, and a more sour dimension. The strange thing about these two releases is that – if you give them time in the glass (say 15 minutes) – they sort of settle and become almost indistinguishable again, as if their breathing time increases your distance from the whiskies and, in doing so, similarities are emphasized again.
On the palate, the 3rd release is more savoury and slightly more earthy than the 4th, which is a bit sweeter and fruitier. With the former – in addition to blueberry jam, figs and some tiny vegetal notes – you also get candied ginger and a drizzle of sudachi (a Japanese citrus fruit). That's the sour dimension hinted at by the nose and it really works well in this context. The 4th release stays safely in sweeter territories (prune juice, rum-raisin cake, mince pies), which is nice and makes for an easy drinking experience.
We're big fans of this Cask-Strength series for Taiwan and hope there are more to come in the near future. These affordable Karuizawas are clearly aimed at the drinker rather than the collector, and that's to be applauded. They're exclusive to the Taiwan market, but they've also started appearing on auction sites in Europe, so if you get the chance grab a bottle or two (different releases), open them and you're in Wonderland… just like Alice.

Thanks a lot for this information - I'll be in Taiwan next month. Hopefully there's some left by then.
Nonjatta is a real treasure trove of information, definitely THE go to blog for J whisky. Thanks so much for keeping us in the loop on all developments there. Looking forward to loads of interesting posts this year.

First off - and I think I would be remiss if I didn't do this - but I want to thank all of you who offered kind words towards my classes and I. I had promised all of them that this was more or less a "secret" between them and me, but after the outpouring of well-wishes I felt like I had to show them how wonderful people on the outside thought this was.
My students were pretty taken aback by the reaction of the Back Room so I wanted to let you all know that you are quite famous now in Mr. Jakam31's classes. Many of them asked who you were and when I explained that you were complete strangers they were amazed.
One student even asked, "Wow, those people actually care about this? Why?" I was at a loss for words on this one because I wasn't sure how I could put the spirit of the Back Room into a sentence or paragraph. I simply replied softly, "Because they are Notre Dame men and women and that is what Notre Dame men and women are about."
I didn't respond to anyone about this until now because I figured with everything going on in all of your lives that you were probably extremely busy and to be honest - I didn't know how to respond to what all of you said.
There are not many people within the walls of the school who know what my classes did, and that is exactly how I wanted it. However, the response from all of you and from the few people here that do know was so overwhelmingly supportive that it leaves me speechless.
I guess I just don't see it as a big deal because we were willing and able... and when you put those two things together you really can make miracles.
So as an update, it appears as if the family we are helping is going to have a terrific Christmas. The final tally was shocking - I would estimate that together we all spent well over $700 on everything that was brought in.
Michael and Matthew are getting a new Xbox 360 - and their Guitar Hero III.
They both got new tennis shoes and socks as well as new wardrobes.
The mother got new pajamas, gloves, and a couple of gift cards that should save her a lot of money in the future.
There will be stockings with candy, presents of video games and books, and enough school supplies to get both boys through high school - and possibly college if they so desire.
When the mom heard from Mrs. Potter, the guidance counselor who got me the list, how many things my kids were bringing in she cried - as did two other guidance counselors. Mrs. Potter shook her head in disbelief everytime I brought items into her office to store... then told me I had to leave the one day because we were making her cry.
Overwhelming indeed.
You see, my students went so far above and beyond what I initially asked them to do that it makes my hands shake to type this. I know that this shaking is not a bad thing - it is simply hope, pride, and an overwhelming sense of caring pouring out of my fingers and onto my keyboard... and I thank my students for this.
They showed me what my purpose in life is and I can honestly say that I love them all for that. They are my children - good or bad. "A" student or "C" student. Stubborn or not. They are mine and that is a truly wonderful feeling.
I said when I was starting out as a teacher that I had a feeling I might learn more from my students than my students will learn from me... and they have taught me so much over the past two weeks. The hardest part for me is that I am certain I can never give them what they have given me because their aforementioned gifts of hope, pride, and that sense of caring is much more than I could ever give them.
Plus they gave me all that without even knowing they did so. They showed me the true spirit of this special time of year... even when we are in the midst of some of the worst economic conditions our country has seen in over 40 years.
Last Friday we wrapped all these gifts in my 3rd period Economics and Finance class. I brought this particular class 6 dozen donuts from Dunkin Donuts because they contributed over 800 additional items to the local homless (I know, their giving spirit knows no bounds) and this was their reward for it.
They thought it was a huge deal that I did that - I thought it was like giving them a pair of socks on Christmas morning after they bought me a Mercedes... but we ate and wrapped gifts and they enjoyed it.
So to the Back Room and the people who post here: Thank You for your kind words and support. You have no idea how much it meant to me and how many people your responses impacted. You all are truly the spirit of Notre Dame and your kindness knows no bounds.
To mkovac: The "hands of God" are in good shape - for now and in the future. My students were so unselfish and willing to help so the future for this is bright.
To my parents: Thank you for showing me how to share my numerous blessings with those who may not have that many. I could not ask for two better people to call "Mom" and "Dad." I love you both and I can't wait to be home tomorrow night.
To my students: You may never read this, but thank you so much for the gifts you have given me this year. I will keep them with me throughout my educational journey.
To Michael and Matthew: Merry Christmas - I hope you enjoy everything and that you never question the power of people helping people. It truly is a powerful thing.
Laslty, I was a little worried about my holiday season this year because it was the first time in a long time that I wouldn't have almost an entire month off and I am so far away from my parents for the first time. I wasn't sure I would be able to "get into the season."
Not anymore...
Merry Christmas Everyone - God Bless!

There are no atheists
It has been suggested that this article be merged with Atheists know there is a God
Some apologists apparently believe that everyone really believes in God, and anyone who claims not to believe is simply lying, or angry at God. They may claim that atheism is a form of rebellion, or that God is so indelibly written on everyone's heart that no one can deny belief. God can't be indelibly written because people who have never heard the Gospel do not automatically become Christians unless they are taught. Children do not automatically become Christians without teaching either.
The argument is frequently supported by the claim that it is impossible to know definitively that there is no God, therefore an atheist must be an agnostic. This argument is fallacious as it incorrectly assumes that atheism and agnosticism are mutually exclusive. It is also ironic, since it is just as impossible to know definitively that there is a God. Therefore, theists also must be agnostic. But this isn't the only problem with this criticism.
A Lack of Evidence[edit]
This claim has a lack of evidence, and seems to be based on pure speculative assumption. How do we know that theists and religious people aren't really just atheistic nonreligious people who are just lying and merely angry at reality? The reason it is known they really do believe this stuff is because of how far they are willing to go to defend it. From Muslims who blow themselves up, to Christians, Hindus, and other such people who donate their life savings to clergy in the hopes of reaching eternal life, Nirvana, etc. By contrast, most atheists don't even care to even call themselves atheists. According to the Pew forum Survey, about 1.6% US Americans self-identify as atheists (http://religions.pewforum.org/affiliations). However, 5% of the USA population in 2007 didn't believe there was a god, while 3% weren't sure (http://religions.pewforum.org/comparisons#). Both are qualifications for being atheist-lack of a belief in a deity, or deities. This implies that as many as 8% of US Americans are technically atheists, yet don't even know or care enough to call themselves atheists. They could also be afraid of persecution from the Christian majority, However.

As human beings, we write to communicate the stories that give our lives meaning. As scholars, we write to clarify ideas, to come to new understandings, and to invite others to connect with us. We write to dig deeply into all that interests us, fascinates us, and/or disturbs us. We write to connect with others as well as to create meaning for our own lives. In this course, we will learn how to write for meaning-making. The readings will be engaging and illuminating. Utilizing Scholarly Personal Narrative (SPN), an innovative writing and research methodology created by Dr. Robert Nash, we will explore, and reflect upon, what brings you meaning in your life as a scholar, researcher, learner, and quarterlifer. Our course will be a writer's workshop. It will be vigorous—engaging, interactive, fun, inspiring, probing, and creative. It will most definitely not be boring. This class will be taught by the co-authors of two recently published books on SPN.
will leave the class having produced an SPN manuscript you can be proud of. We will supplement our weekly seminar meetings with the latest technology (blogs, web links, and social media) to engage the class in common resources found on the web to support your writing now and in the future. Above all, however, our class will become a support community for all students who want to become writers—whether for publication, self-insight, or to produce an honors thesis or some other academic manuscript. SPN is a methodology whose time has finally come in higher education. So, be in on the ground floor.

So, living in Milton just over the bridge from Madison, Ind., my Dear Husband and I generally head north when we need groceries or a night out.
Patter is originally from Madison, so he knows nearly everyone. At one point when we were still dating, I counted the number of people who said hello to him while we were out and reached 13. Amazing to me, as I wouldn't recognize most of the people in the town I grew up in and I don't think they'd recognize me.
But, I have moved around a lot, and that's one downside.
I digress.
If you live in Trimble County, I'm sure you have ventured to our sister city on the other side of the Milton-Madison Bridge. I know some of you won't take the bridge, though, because it's old and narrow. If that's the case, you truly are missing out.
In the nearly nine years I've lived in the area, I've noticed that Madison just keeps on improving. In fact, I'd say it really is going through a Renaissance period. There are more new shops each year in that well-preserved downtown, and it's developing quite a reputation through the region.
Most recently, Patter and I attended a wonderful production called, "Pure Prine," based on the music of American songwriting legend John Prine. The cast was excellent and the show was really well done, belying the fact the theater was remodeled from a former store front and the stage built in just two weeks leading up to the performances Nov. 19 and 20.
There are several wonderful wineries: Thomas Family, Lanthier and Madison Vineyards, and now The Dock (Next to The River House II) on Jefferson Street is a wine-tasting room offering vintages from other wineries on the Indiana Wine Trail.
Recently, several new restaurants have opened, as well, offering all kinds of fare. Many of them boast fresh-grown foods and ingredients, and much of it is bought from Trimble County and other area growers, including meat.
Sadly, Rogers Corner is no longer an old-fashioned malt shop, but it is now a really cool sports bar. Yes. Sports bar. In Madison. I believe I counted 15 flat-panel TVs on the exposed brick walls there, and every time we go or drive past, the place is hopping. That's because the food really is very good. It is owned by the same gentleman who owns The Downtowner, which has some of the best sandwiches around. He also bought the former Maverick's (previously Cabana Joe's) on the hilltop and has renamed it Harry's Stone Grill.
There is also ChickiePoo's, which is only open on certain days of the week for lunch and dinner. The menu is different every day, because the chef there buys his food fresh. We've only been there once, but it was very good. In fact, the chef told us while we were eating a scrumptious peach shortcake dessert, that he bought the peaches in Trimble County. He said they were the best peaches he's ever bought.
Chez Danielle is a French-themed bistro selling really wonderful sandwiches. They have some really nice wines and serve beer, too.
Franco's ... well, is bellisimo! Excellent authentic Italian lunch and dinner fare that also offers the best breakfast menu around.
Once known as McQuiston's, "605" at 605 W. Main St., also has wonderful gourmet foods, also made from scratch and fresh daily. It and Bistro One, a wonderful combination of Mediterranean-style dishes, are probably the priciest places to eat, along with the famous Key West Shrimp House. But, you can't go wrong at either place.
There are many more restaurants I haven't mentioned, but I'll stop here. (And no, I'm not on anyone's bankroll there.) I just think that if, for whatever reason, you haven't been to Madison for awhile, you are in for a lot of treats.
Phyllis McLaughlin is editor of The Trimble Banner and lives in Milton, Ky. She is a big fan of good food, good wine and fine entertainment, anywhere it is to be found.

8-Year-Old Girl in a Princess Costume Perfectly Raps Nicki Minaj's 'Super Bass' [VIDEO]
With the help of her sister (and hype girl), little Sophia Grace Brownlee performs a flawless cover of the Nicki Minaj hit 'Super Bass' in this video.
While it's true the song's lyrics are a bit adult for young Sophia (not to mention NSFW), you can't deny that she nails Minaj's rapid-fire rapping style. Plus, you can't really understand what she's saying anyway.
