Provide a summary of the project or program:
Northeast Louisiana Economic Alliance (NELEA) is one of eight economic development regions in the state and covers 10 NE La Parishes: Ouachita, Union, Morehouse,West Carroll, East Carroll, Madison, Tensas, Franklin, Caldwell and Richland.
NELEA has coached and worked with four Parishes (East Carroll, Madison, Richland, Madison ) to lead the main communities (Ravyille, Bastrop, Delhi, Tallulah and Lake Prividence) to guide them through the USDA Set Forever Program to identify their marketing potential and community capacity. Then we worked with all of the towns to become Development Ready Communities, a valued national designation. We developed a strategic plan for each community and now we desire to assist each community in implementing their plans. Each town set several priorities to accomplish. These are the projects we will work with them on.
Additionally, we will enroll 5 new towns in the Development Ready Program. This will cover the whole region and include a town i n each Parish. We will help them to develop a plan and then implement what can be achieved within their Parishes.
We also partner with our universities, community college campuses, workforce development as well as federal programs and initiatives. By partnering and through Jumpstart for high school students, we are building our future workforce. By including workforce support and Development Ready Communities, the towns will benefit and experience smart growth.

Hole puncher
Cut out the center of the paper plate.
Punch 8 to 10 holes around the inside edge of the plate
Punch one hole is at top and two holes are at the bottom on the outside edge of the plate.
With the crayons, colored pencils, or markers decorate the paper plate.
Cut piece of yarn about 5 to 6 feet long.
Thread one end of your yarn up through one of the bottom outside edge holes, being careful to leave at least 6 to 8 inches of yarn from the other end of the string hanging down out of the hole.
Keep threading your yarn through the holes you made earlier.
There is no right or wrong pattern, but you do want to make a few criss cross patterns to make it look like an authentic dream catcher.
Thread the yarn through the last hole at the bottom outside edge when you've finished making your pattern through the paper plate. You want this end to hang down as well.
Slide a few beads onto the pieces of yarn that are hanging down from the dream catcher and tie a knot to keep the beads in place.
Tie a few feathers to the pieces of yarn that are hanging down.
Thread a small piece of yarn through the top center hole. Tie the yarn in a knot to create a circle that the dream catcher can be hung from.

Elected Official Transparency
State assembly leaders in New York, California, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island have introduced legislation that can fix some of the damage done by the 2016 election and force future Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates to fully disclose tax returns.
The Presidential Transparency and Accountability Act would force candidates for president to release up to ten years of tax returns, stock holdings, and business relationships to the state level board of elections no later than 50 days before the general election, which would in turn redact personal information and make the returns public. Failure to comply with the legislation should it become law would prohibit the state's electors from voting for that candidate and the candidate's name would not appear on the state ballot. The President elect's refusal to disclose his tax returns, stock holdings, and business relationships denied voters an important perspective on the candidate's potential conflicts of interests as well as their financial well-being and how much he gave to charity.

The body-contouring bacteria!
Why should you too use "Probiotic Life" as a nutritional supplement as well:
• Significantly reduces abdominal fat
• Reduces waist measurement without any special exercise or diet
• Combats the bacteria (H. pylori) responsible for ulcers
• Speeds up gastric wound healing
• Stimulates the immune system
• Protects against the flu virus
• Relieves menstrual pain...
Slimness, vitality and a strong immune system are all essential for good health! Whoever would have thought that all of these things can be offered by a mere microbe?
And yet...
Over 1000 species of bacteria and yeast live inside our digestive system. It is a highly sought-after habitat as it is warm, dark and moist, allowing microbes to exist in perfect harmony. However, every individual has their own bacterial "fingerprint" reflecting their diet, lifestyle and self-care habits. It is thus clear that certain "intestinal inhabitants" differ from one person to the next, especially in slim individuals or those carrying a few extra pounds.
In larger individuals, intestinal flora loses its balance, and specific bacteria (firmicutes) become predominant, extracting extra calories from dietary residues. Therefore, by taking in greater quantities of fats and sugars than a more frugal eater, full-figured individuals create even more reserves and involuntarily put on more weight! Indeed this "digestive action" carried out by bacteria plays an important role in putting on those extra pounds.
Can you really flatten your tummy and reduce your waist size with the help of bacteria? It's not as crazy as it sounds… some of our intestinal inhabitants have opened the doors to new and groundbreaking weightloss techniques!
Frequently used for the fermentation of meat and dairy products, Lactobacillus gasseri is a bacterium that forms a part of healthy intestinal and vaginal flora. A key player on the intestinal scene, this probiotic is the simplest to use and most effective weapon we have in the battle of the bulge!
A few daily capsules of Lactobacillus gasseri prevent the growth of microbes that promote the absorption of extra calories. Day after day, this bacteria works to re-balance intestinal flora, allowing you to naturally slim down your love handles!
Without the need for any special diet or exercise, Lactobacillus gasseri significantly reduces (from 3.3 to 5.8%) abdominal fat. Scientifically speaking, this represents a 1.4% reduction in total body weight, a 1.5% reduction in IMC and a 1.8% reduction in waist size in significantly overweight individuals!
Lactobacillus gasseri plays a fundamental role in protecting the body against the flu virus by stimulating its natural defences. Regular intake of the bacteria also helps to reduce the symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis. According to today's most advanced research, Lactobacillus gasseri combats the bacteria (H. pylori) responsible for ulcers and speeds up gastric wound healing. It also reduces menstrual pain, promoting women's health and a slender figure.
Restores Vigilance, increases Energy and Endurance.
Energy boost for sexuality & libido – more desire for both you and him
stimulates desire and libido
enhances sexual performance
Falling asleep is no longer a nightmare!

Ice Cream cones
This post got missed a few weeks ago. When it was really hot we drew unique ice cream flavors with patterns in our cones and cream and then watercolored our creations.
2nd Grade Lego People
These cool lego people were made by the 2nd graders, and colored with crayon and oil pastel. I am so impressed with their hard work on these.

Art and Chocolate Recap
Hopefully, you were able to attend art and chocolate this year in downtown Grandville. It was a great night. Right now I am waiting to pass back the artwork from this show, as a school we are debating if we want to display the work around school for just a little longer yet... but I promise it will go home before the end of the school year. The art show was featured in School Network News you can read the article here.
Kindergarten Clay
Kindergarten just finished clay this week. We flattened our clay to get out the air bubbles and then used our tools to draw insects on the clay. (Kindergarteners have been learning all about insects in science with their classroom teachers.) Once they had their bug designed they used clay tools to add interesting textures.
After a trip through the kiln, these cute little bugs were painted with tempera paint and wrapped up to go home.

On the question of what would Picard do, it helps to specify whether we are talking about Picard from the show or the movies. The Picard from the show probably would refrain from interfering, after all, if there is a cosmic plan for Assad to slaughter all of his people, is it not the height of hubris to think we can or should interfere? The Picard from Insurrection however is liable to use biogenic weapon on the rebels and shoot down any Federation ships sent to provide aid.
As for the Klingons and yielding, when they weren't written by hacks Klingons are not one-track minded simpletons. After all no lesser of an authority than Martok urged Worf to yield in "By Inferno's Light".
Sargon May 7, 2013 at 7:19 am -
I actually agree with vonohzu's point about Klingons. Klingon A is not Klingon B. Just as one cannot say, "All French people think X or would act in such and such a way in a given scenario," one cannot say, "All Klingons think X or would act in such and such a way."
seannewboy May 7, 2013 at 1:40 pm -

It has been WAY too long since there has been a Star Trek movie. They need to find someone who knows Star Trek to get to work making one.
Meanwhile I heard Abrams' new space adventure Lens Flare II is due out soon!

OoOoo… JJ's gunna need some Aloe Vera cuz he just got burned!! 🙂
I definitely LoLed at this! Thanks!
Yuchen@vonohzu May 9, 2013 at 2:52 pm -
It's not a good idea to make the director's seat a Star Trek fan club exclusive. I didn't like the Abram Trek either, but the far inferior Nemesis was directed by a long time diehard Trek fan. Whereas the two best Trek movies, Khan and Undiscovered Country were directed by Nicolas Meyer, who didn't know Star Trek either.
Michael Sawyer May 10, 2013 at 11:54 am -
Two things:
1. For me, there is a difference between being a die hard Trek fan and "getting" Trek, as in understanding what Star Trek is all about.
2. Every time I read "set phasers to stunning" I want to rip off a helmet and shake my long blond locks of hair down to my shoulders all sultry like…
Yes I am sad, stop staring!
Flight May 9, 2013 at 6:18 pm -
Great episode and thank for the pvp advice I only played pvp once I have to give it a second chance and you're not getting my one dollar

I've been re-reading Warren Ellis and John Cassady's Planetary lately, and reaffirming not just its quality, but the sense of wonder that's in every single issue. Ellis doesn't speak publicity much about the book, because, he says, it's a project he associates with dark times in his life. It certainly wasn't an easy story to complete. Planetary was plagued by illness-related delays throughout its run. It's only 27 issues long, but it was 10 years between the debut of the series and the publication of its final issue in the fall of 2009. Though it was certainly no picnic for its creators, the difficulty of production enchanted Planetary for many readers. It became a cult comic without even trying. Patton Oswalt declared one of its stars – Elijah Snow – the best superhero in comics on live television (really, he did). By the time the final issue dropped and Ellis and Cassaday walked away from the project, they had both become comic book rock stars all over again.
Warren Ellis has since described the series as an effort to "download" from his head all of the superhero knowledge he had amassed through his years as a writer for Marvel and DC Comics. But Planetary doesn't traffic in superhero stereotypes. There are hints of those old mythologies, but Ellis – ever the original – went deeper. He made the heroes of Planetary a kind of meta-archeological team, trying to break the skin of the world and get at the hidden universes lurking beneath. It doesn't play by any of the rules of the genre, but I'd venture that Planetary is simply the finest superhero story written in the last 15 years.
The idea of Planetary seems to be to set up a scenario through which the whole world, indeed whole universes, can be explored with easy explanation. Planetary is a worldwide organization dedicated to investigating the weird and the just plain epic things that humans don't generally have the capacity for comprehending. They have offices around the globe manned by associates, but the real team is only three people. Elijah Snow: one hundred years old but doesn't look it, specializes in heat subtraction and, well, freezing things. Jakita Wagner: joined because she was bored; super speed, strength and stamina. The Drummer: has the ability to talk and listen to machines. They are funded without question by the mysterious Fourth Man – who, as Wagner notes, could be anyone from Bill Gates to Hitler – and spend their days tracking down everything from extradimensional beings to vengeful ghosts to magnificent monsters.
Nearly every issue of Planetary's run is almost completely self-contained, and each features a completely unique cover design. In his original proposal for the series, Ellis is pitched each issue as though it were a three-minute pop single. Having already done his great joined epic (Transmetropolitan), he wanted to explore the power of a self-contained issue once again, and the result is a comic that's both immediately satisfying and lingering. Every issue of Planetary is its own adventure, and yet the body of work as a whole is another experience altogether, a kind of portrait of a superhuman universe.
So many superhero comics rely on formulas, and even when the tale is told well you get a sense of pattern, of tradition, of stale template following. Planetary isn't like that. It's an homage to the best of the superhero genre that contains none of the bland predictability of the worst. It's Ellis and Cassaday each in top form, and it's a breathtaking kind of comic book. It may be a collection of single servings, but you can't stop with one.

One of the strongest companies producing games on the Game Boy Advance is definitely Konami, as it's dedicated a whole lot of resources in bringing more than a dozen titles to the handheld in the system's first year on the market. Still, being one of the biggest definitely doesn't make you infallible, as proven by the company's latest effort: WTA Tour Tennis. This game, the first tennis title to hit the GBA, doesn't match the quality of other tennis games on lesser-capable handhelds. Mario Tennis on the Game Boy Color and Pocket Tennis on the NeoGeo Pocket Color were much more impressive offerings.
- 20 female tennis pros
- Exhibition and Tour modes
- Cartridge save (quick save and tour save)
- Link cable support for four players (multiple cartridges required)
- Only for Game Boy Advance
Konami's taking a huge risk by securing an all-women/only-women tennis license to wrap around its first GBA tennis design, so kudos to them. WTA Tour Tennis has twenty different real-life tennis pros shrunk down to super-deformed stature, from Jennifer Capriati to Monica Seles. Oddly, while Serena Williams is in this game, Venus Williams has been left out of the line-up. Each of these players has her own attributes, from speed to power, but the sprite representations when they get out on the courts make everyone look like the same darn person...aside from a bit of palette swapping for skin tone and clothing color, of course.
There isn't a whole lot to the overall design, which hurts the game's lasting appeal. Players can play exhibition rounds in singles or doubles, or play a full-on world tour with a single tennis pro. If you can locate three additional copies of the game you can play against other players on other systems. But that's it...there are no practice mini-games, no building up player attributes, or any other gaming modes to speak of. It's a cut-and-dry design.
But this could be forgiven if the actual tennis game held its own with a good engine, but even here WTA Tour Tennis doesn't really stand up. The graphics, from the flat court designs to the basic character animations, are barely above what tennis designers did on the Game Boy Color system. The actual gameplay is easy to pick up, admittedly, with solid controls...but it's almost too easy to keep volleys going since you don't have to be accurate with timing your swings. All that's necessary is to anticipate where the ball is going and hold down the A button to return the shot. There are several moments in any given volley where the ball will visibly travel through the net. And there is a huge gap in the computer AI that's incredibly easy to exploit, making the game a snap to win...all players have to do is advance the net on an opposing player's serve, and they can place the return so far out of reach of the server that it will always score a point.
On the plus side, games can be quick-saved between volleys, which makes WTA Tour Tennis a friendly handheld game. The cartridge save also records the player's standings in the world circuit, and basic match-up information that tells how many times the players have won or lost against a specific tennis pro. But it doesn't record settings in the options menu...players can choose to change the camera to have it so the viewpoint keeps the player's character always on the close side of the net, but this setting won't stick if you turn off the system.
The Verdict
You'd think that a GBA tennis game would at least look more impressive than what was offered on the Game Boy Color...and with the power of the system, you'd expect it to at least match the offerings on the Super NES. Konami's tennis game doesn't come anywhere close to Mario Tennis on GBC or even Super Tennis on the SNES...I can't say for sure if this game's main focus is the younger girl crowd, because it at least looks like it's trying to take itself a bit seriously with its license. But the overall package is a real disappointment for the first tennis game on the handheld...there will be others. Plenty of others. I suggest you wait for something better to come along.

Pay to be Scarred for Life – WHY?
After years of playing sport, and especially rugby I along with others who have put themselves through the weekly 'enjoyment' of taking part in competitive activities have a number of 'scars'.
None of which I would voluntarily expose to the innocent public.
I take some perverse comfort that at least the scars collected are an unintentional by-product of playing sport and in the days when you had to "Pay to Play", what was euphemistically called 'Club Dues' I earned them.
Whilst on my recent holiday one thing that became very apparent, apart that is that most people should keep their clothes on, is the number of people who have got tattoos, and especially the number of middle-aged and older people who have clearly only recently had them.
I admit that some of the artwork, was just that,
and very intricate and clever artwork it is to.
This may come as a surprise considering I spent almost 23 years in the Royal Navy but for the life of me I can't think why anyone would pay good money to be intentionally scarred for life.
Even stranger is the location of the tattoos!!
Why is it that people and especially women choose to have a tattoo in the middle of their lower back or on a shoulder-blade which can only be seen by other people unless they carry a hand mirror around with them?
And what is it with the latest craze of tattooing the 'nether regions' which no one can see under their shorts/trousers and only by the individual if they pose nude in front of a mirror?
Not an image that I'd choose to think about.
And how bloody painful must it be to have a tattoo in 'delicate and sensitive' areas?
It is perhaps why I have never had a tattoo.
This was a matter of conversation at home when another factor I hadn't thought about was made.
A female friend of our daughter was thinking of having a tattoo until one of her friends asked the following question,
"How many clothes have you had in your wardrobe for longer than six months that you would wear again"?
Good point.
She decided that a tattoo would be for life changed her mind and chose to go for retail therapy instead.
So yes I'll never understand the motivation behind people having tattoos but I respect their right to have one if they want to.
Just one plea.
If you are going to have one, and especially one in vibrant colours, please cover them up when out in the sun
They look bloody awful when they start to fade.
and please, please, please don't have them on the crinkly bits of the body that constantly looks as if it needs ironing.

Thoughts on Being Inspired
That exhilarated feeling is why I started making movies. But today, I was thinking about how making a great movie doesn't give you the same inspired, exhilarated feeling that seeing a great movie gives you.
It just can't. You can't make art in a vacuum. You need other artists to inspire you. And, of course, I can hope to make a movie that is good enough to inspire someone else. But the feeling one gets from the actual making of the film simply isn't the same as the inspiration one derives from seeing great art.
There is a feeling of accomplishment, to be sure, but it's more of an ambiguous sense of maybe having done something well (even if you're never exactly certain of that fact). The experience of the film as art eludes the maker, I think. Or, at least, it always has eluded me with regard to my own films.
I suppose, after many years, when the details of a film have been more or less forgotten by the filmmaker, he or she could have an experience of it as a work of art. But even then, I'm not sure it's possible, because while details might have been forgotten, the experience of rewatching the film would immediately call to mind the experience of making it.
And that's the gist of the problem, I imagine -- a filmmaker cannot separate the experience of the film from the making of it.
So I'm left with a realization that should have been obvious: even if I can make great art (and I'm not saying that I can or have), I can never experience my own work as great art. That strikes me as... not sad, but perhaps disappointing.
Just some random thoughts.

Philanthropy makes a difference in every stage of human life – from infancy to adolescence, from early adulthood to a person's advanced years. And it impacts every facet of life – from health to education, from environment to culture, among many others.
"iPhilanthropy", the EFC's multimedia exhibition located in the Galleria at Philanthropy House, tells the story of the potential of philanthropy throughout the human life cycle, underlining the trust inherent in the relationship between philanthropy and the people it serves.
The exhibition takes the form of five different trees, designed in wood by Brussels-based artist Ismaël Maudet. Four of the trees represent different phases of the life cycle, while the fifth serves as a platform for visitors to envisage the future of philanthropy and leave their mark. On the branches of each tree are displayed images, videos, audio, objects and publications representing the work of philanthropy in that particular phase of life.
The exhibition is a chance to engage in a new way with some of the work of EFC members. The message for everyone is clear – "I am Philanthropy, and Philanthropy is about me, about you, and about us."
The Fifth Tree – Nurturing trust through dialogue
How are foundations responding to urgent challenges facing us today? How are they working to make a better future? Tell us what you think – let us know your wishes for the future and share your ideas with foundations on tackling issues that matter to you. This tree aims to spur a dialogue between our visitors and our members who have the power and resources to create change.

When I was still preggo, Ric and I talked about using cloth diapers with Parker. After much research, we became really excited about the idea. Cloth diapers are super cute and easy to use (compared to ten and twenty years ago). And they are super cost effective. 24 cloth diapers will pay for themselves in six months or less. And you can use them on multiple kiddos. Not to mention, supposedly more than 27 billion disposable diapers end up in landfills each year across the country, and it takes 500 YEARS of them to decompose. 500 years of decomposing, poopy diapers. That's super disgusting.
For more info as to why cloth diapers are awesome, go HERE:
Anyway, once Parker was born, we were unsure of what my future job-status would be. We didn't feel comfortable using cloth diapers unless I'd be able to stay home with Parker part-time (cloth diapers are a no-no at daycare, and with my parents doing childcare, I wouldn't want them to have to use CD full-time). Plus, we were given so many disposable diapers as gifts, we still haven't had to spend a cent on diapers, and Parker is almost three months. Super awesome.
But as his three-month mark is approaching, the "free" diaper stash is starting to dwindle. Also, a few weeks ago I was able to find a nanny job (which I'm SO excited about, but more about that later) that will start at the end of August. With this part-time job, I'll only be working (on average) about 10 days a month. So I'll be home with my little Bubba the rest of the month (blissfully excited about this)! Which means…
Cloth diapers can be a reality in the Reyes household!
(For the record, this isn't a picture of Parker... just another cute baby in a cute cloth diaper!)
Trying to choose which CD to use can be a nightmare. There are so many brands and options within each brand, it seems endless. After much research and consulting with other CD mamas, I've narrowed it down to three brands. Through Amazon.com, we've ordered one of each brand to put them each to the test. Hopefully, we'll be able to find which one works best for us and then we'll stock up!
Here are the competitors:
Contender #1: bumGenius 4.0 One Size with Snap Closures
Contender #2: Flip One Size Diaper with Snap Closure
Contender #3: FuzziBunz One-size Diaper with Snap Closures

My enthusiasm for creating my own hot chile oil was dampened over the last day or so. I posted the method and recipe that I was planning on using to both the harvest forum at gardenweb and on the hot pepper forum at MSN. I was told that to make this oil might be dangerous if I included garlic and fresh herbs. I was disappointed, but it was pointed out to me that chinese food restaurants always seem to have hot chile oil on their tables. The key in making the oil is to use dried pods -only-. Also, I've been advised to always keep the homemade oil in my refrigerator and store it only for a few months. If it will keep for at least a month or two, that is more than enough time for a small batch of oil, so the project seems feasible again.
Therefore, I am making a small test batch of hot chile oil this afternoon. I took 1/2 cup of peanut oil, heated it until it was smoking and then put in around 3 to 4 of the dried habaneros. The oil doesn't have that red color that I was expecting, but I have a different recipes that also uses paprika that probably would give me the color that I want next time. Currently, the cooked oil is cooling in the pan and I will strain it into one of the small self corking bottles I purchased at CostPlus Imports the other day. So far, it has been a fun use of my garden chiles.

I've got a MacBook Pro that is passworded (the user account) and currently have time machine running every now and again on my external backup drive. Because I do take my notebook around I was interested using the feature FileVault to protect my data incase it does go missing however time machine doesn't run with FileVault. What do you guys do when it comes to security and backing up data? Do you use FileVault and manually backup your files on an external drive or do you use time machine without the security of FileVault? Thanks

Michelle recently posted about her friend's 7-year-old son who has an inoperable tumor on his brain stem. His name is Luke and he'll be going in for radiation treatment soon. Michelle wanted to knit him a lovely blanket, but of course because time is of the essence with these sorts of medical situations, she doesn't have time to knit an entire blanket. She implored other knitters (if they could) to knit her squares (preferably 8×8) and send them to her.
Here are the squares I made for Luke's blanket:
"L" for Luke [free pattern link] [entire knitted alphabet]
Transformers [free pattern link]
Sorry Michelle, they didn't turn out 8×8…. I agree with you on your Cloth Pattern Whys (and should do so myself too!):
#2 Why don't folks (MYSELF INCLUDED HERE) include gauge or better yet, completed cloths size in their dishcloth patterns
Also, if you'd like to track Luke's progress, or sign his guestbook with words of encouragement, his parents are running a Caring Bridge blog/website for him.

I see how Howard Stern could like this king of all media thing.
And, btw, for being the only guy in the room without his own radio show, Andy held his own very well. He has the right combination of knowledge and edginess, as do Marty and Tony. But damn, Mitch is scary to work with when he isn't quarterbacking as he does with NARN. Note to self: offer to get Mitch out of the QB chair a little more often. He's even funnier when he's not worried about the breaks.

Aubrey Connatser, of Connatser Family Law has once again given $30,000 to the annual Equal Access to Justice Campaign benefitting the Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program (DVAP). A donor since 2006, Connatser Family Law, a boutique family law firm, has donated more than $100,000 to the Campaign.
Impressive? Definitely. Thankful? Certainly. Stunned? Some people are wondering why an attorney and her firm would give so much and ask for so little in return?
We can tell you. Aubrey believes in our justice system. She believes that all people having access to a sound, fair, and democratic way of resolving disputes is a cornerstone of our democracy.
"A person's ability to pay should not be the determining factor when access to our justice system is necessary to protect a child or right a wrong," said Aubrey.
For Aubrey, access to justice is about the individual as well as the broader societal impact of access to justice. It is about her clients who have suffered years of domestic violence. It is about her clients who child needed support to pay the bills. It is about clients who just need to move past a failed marriage peacefully and move on with the rest of their lives.
It is about all her clients—pro bono or not. However, it is also about your clients. It is about all individuals in the court system and those who may need the court system someday. It is about businesses, both for profit and non-profit, needing a system to resolve disagreements when trying to work things out informally has failed. It is about making sure our citizens can seek and obtain results from our system of justice.
It is about advice, counsel, and understanding one's legal rights. It is about making sure people do not fear or mistrust our justice system, or find it so financially inaccessible that the system is biased against them from the start. It is about having lawyers fight for them in our established and trustworthy system so people can enforce and protect their rights. It is about freedom and equality for all and not just a privileged few.
"Access to justice should be a right and not a luxury," said Aubrey. "Each day we witness the victimization of so many across the globe by unjust legal systems. I believe it is our duty as practitioners to ensure those most vulnerable in our society are not marginalized or ignored because of their lack of resources."
For DVAP, it is about the thousands of clients who ask for and receive help every year. It is about the more than 2,500 clients who were represented by pro bono attorneys in 2015. It is about the hundreds of additional clients who received advice and counsel. It is about every DVAP client who has received services from the program since its start, and the thousands of Dallas lawyers who have supported access to justice by representing DVAP's clients.
For Dallas, it is about the more than 600,000 people (25 percent of the Dallas County population) who automatically qualify for free legal help because they live so close to the poverty level. One person's divorce, one person's eviction, one person's consumer problem, is not just someone else's problem. When that person needs legal advice, needs to understand their rights, needs to have a judge rule on their case, their problem is our problem—making sure they can do this while preserving access to justice for all.
Thank you Connatser Family Law: Aubrey Connatser, Mike DeBruin, Abby Gregory, Christine Leatherberry, and Alissa Castro, for your commitment to the Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program and the Equal Access to Justice Campaign.
The Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program is a joint pro bono program of the Dallas Bar Association and Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas. The program is the only one of its kind in Texas and brings together the volunteer resources of a major metropolitan bar association with the legal aid expertise of the largest and oldest civil legal aid program in North Texas.
To learn more or make a gift, contact Alicia Hernandez at email@example.com or 214-220-7499.
Alicia Hernandez is the director of the Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program and the DBA director of community services. She can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Dubai [UAE], December 17 (ANI): PV Sindhu, the only Indian woman in fray for the Dubai World Superseries Finals, has taken the Indian challenge to the grand finals of the event.
Olympian Sindhu has set the summit clash against World No. 2 Akane Yamaguchi of Japan after defeating Chen Yufei of China in straight games 21-15, 21-18 in the women's singles semifinals.

SALISBURY — Kody Donaldson batted 4-for-5 and drove in four runs and Meyersdale rallied for 12 runs in the seventh inning to crush Salisbury 22-7 in a high school baseball game played under the lights Tuesday.
Salisbury scored five runs in the bottom of the sixth to close to within 10-7 before the Red Raiders exploded for a dozen runs. They ended the game with 22 runs on 20 hits.
Ben Lohr also carried a hot bat for the undefeated Red Raiders. He batted 3-for-3, scored three times and collected six RBIs. Teammate Mahlon Robertson went 3-for-4, scored three times and drove in a run.
"It was very cold and the conditions were horrible," Salisbury head coach Marty Kemp said. "There were gale force winds that greatly affected fly balls for both teams. But, that's baseball, and we were able to get the game in."

Chapter 3, Generations of Deities - Part 2 Summary and Analysis
There is also a recurring theme of incestuous relations among some of the gods. The relationship between Hera and her brother Zeus is a case in point. They are both offspring of Rhea and Cronos. Despite the fact that they are siblings, they come to be husband and wife to one another as well. There are versions of the story where their union is depicted as having been his raping her, but in other versions it is actually that she wants her brother for her husband, at least in part to consolidate power in the family and with love and passion. He does have other lovers during their marriage, but they never divorce—only his sister is his wife. In this edition, the marriage is viewed as only taking place...

Into the Vault
The party had run down into the vault below the city, where people had gone to collect the Eye of Koreph. If you recall, it was revealed at the end of the last game that Lyria Veyne, the tiefling from the mage university, was actually one of the prophets of Rakashir. Everyone was worried about her motives in getting the Eye of Koreph.
You head down there, led by Minaste Gardelaine, and accompanied by Wilfred and Heckle. Belias was already in there, having accompanied the original party that went down there.
As you journeyed in there, Minaste explains to you how the vaults work. There's a key required to open the vault itself, but then within the vault are several smaller vaults that each require their own key. The key to the entire vault is for someone who is fully devoted to the defense of the city to sacrifice their own life. They key to the actual Eye of Koreph is not known by Minaste.
The vault is set within a large chamber. A platform extends into the middle of the chamber, with three staircases going down from it; one to the right, the left, and straight ahead. At the bottom of each staircase is a smaller structure, containing smaller vaults.
The party sees, on the platform before the stairs, the corpse of Rosalyn Vadalla, who paid the price to open the vault. Around her are several other corpses, of those who journeyed into the vault. Her own son, Lucien Vadalla (or Adrien… I lost track of which is which), is there, alive, but severely wounded.
"They're not after the Eye," he says. "It was all a lie – they were after something else,"
He explains that, after the price had been paid to unlock the vaults, Belias had hurried down the stairs straight ahead, entering the vault that had the Eye; it was after this that Lyria betrayed everyone, before heading down the stairs to the left, to go after something in a different structure. Lucien claims that she had brought with her an old man, tied up. into the vault.
"She said they needed to 'rend the mortal flesh of a god'
As the party rushes into that structure, they see that Lyria has, in her hands, an object that she has just taken from the vault. At her feet lies the corpse of an old man, which the party recognizes as Valthren the Prescient, the old man that had been taken from Winterhaven. He must have been the key to opening this smaller vault.
Lyria uses magic to fey-step past the party, and runs up the stairs to the platform. At that moment, there's a blood curdling scream heard from the structure that Belias is said to have gone into.
On the central platform, the party fights against Lyria. It's a pretty cool fight… However, in the moments before the party can slay Lyria, something happens.
This is the big part – I even scripted it before the game, to make sure I did it right. As such, here's what I wrote….
The air is suddenly filled with a sound akin to mournful howls carried on the wind. Each of you experience a brief moment of excruciating pain, and then darkness. Slowly, light returns, and you see that you're exactly where you were, within the ruins. You realize, now, that you cannot move; your body is frozen in place. Lyria appears to be unphased, standing in the middle of the stone platform. She's looking out beyond your field of vision, towards the stairs on the left.
"Well, my dear Brother, I must say… your timing is impeccable!" she says.
Into the ring steps a large figure, garbed in ornate robes that are drenched in the blood that still flows from the stump of his right arm. Clutched in his left hand is a strange sigil, carved of a jet black material. It's Belias.
"Ral Fayn's task is complete, dear sister; ready your portal."
Lyria pouts, "Oh, and leave this lot here? They are at our mercy; it would be a shame to let such an opportunity go to waste."
Just out of the corner of your eye, you can see Wilfred's fingers twitching; he is somehow resisting the effects of the magic.
"I have what I came for; you have what you came for. Let us be done here!"
At that moment, Wilfred springs into motion, having cast of the magical shackles that hold the rest of you in place, beginning the incantations of a powerful spell.
"Razath Anar'y'shak!" shouts Belias, and a stream of flame erupts from the sigil in his outstretched arm. The flames engulf Wilfred, and with a scream he is knocked to the ground. As the red fire courses over the fallen wizard, Belias turns back to Lyria.
"Your portal! We are finished, here!"
Lyria frowns, "If you insist." She begins her own ritual, handing the spike off to Belias, who tucks both artifacts into his robes.
[Singling out Nathan]
At your side, Nathan, you see an apparition of the being that has been haunting you. He looks at Wilfred, still writhing in flames, then turns his gaze towards the two tieflings. His visage carries a dangerous look. "Justice, my heir. These two deserve a just punishment. You bear my bow; my legacy. You are the judge, the jury, and the executioner. You are the Talon of Law." You feel yourself loosed from the magical restraints. "Deliver swift justice."
At that moment, Lyria has completed her ritual, and a portal begins to open up.
As you lunge towards them, black chains burst forth, reaching for Belias and Lyria. The two of them are ensnared, just as they step through the portal. Linked by these otherworldly chains, you are yanked into the portal after them. The grip of these chains is strong, however, and they refuse to allow the tieflings to reach their destination. The three of you are trapped, standing in a limbo between two points in the mortal plane.
"I'm sorry, sister," Belias begins, though his face paints a picture of satisfied hatred. "I see no other way."
With the utterance of an eldritch incantation, a rift tears in the demiplane upon which you all stand. A powerful force pulls Lyria into it, and drags you along with her. The chains holding Belias are snapped, and he disappears, whilst you and Lyria plunge into an unknown realm.
Nathan and Lyria find themselves in another realm, amidst great forest/jungles. Lyria seems to have broken her legs in the fall into this realm, and is crippled. She shouts curses at Nathan, blames him, etc. He just walks away. He's finds a good vantage point, and for as far as he can see, he's surrounded by wilderness. We left it at that, for him. He is lost in a realm wherein he is most comfortable. Perhaps in another two years he'll have found his way out of there.
Back at the vault, everyone was sad, because Wilfred was dead, Belias had betrayed them, and so far as they knew, Nathan was gone, as well.
Suneun did a little eulogy for Wilfred.
Lucien Vadalla had begun crawling towards the chamber that held the Eye of Koreph, determined to take it, so that his mother's death was not in vain. The party stopped him, because he was obviously in a very unstable condition.
Looting the Vaults.<. />
Despite everything that had happened, the party all wanted to check out what was in these vaults. In each of the three chambers, there were three vaults, each paired with a riddle, which would suggest the price that had to be paid. Given who makes up our party, it shouldn't come as a surprise that every vault was looted.
Vault 1
Contents = Brazier of Commanding Fire Elementals, Tome of Understanding.
Price = "The Flames Shall Fade"
Faydra was willing to risk this price. It manifested in the form of a high-level fireball spell to her face. Worth it.
Vault 2
Contents = The Hajaali Spike
A spike of blue-tinged metal, one of three to be used in a ritual to summon gods.
Price = "Rend the Mortal Flesh of a God"
This is what Lyria was after. Valthren, the man they stole from the Winterhaven, was actually an old god, walking in mortal flesh. He is murdered to unlock the gate.
Vault 3
Contents = 9th-Level spell scroll "Astral Projection" and Javelin of Lightning
Price = "The Storm Shall Pass"
Faydra also went for this one. Lightning bolt, to the face. Brought her below 0 hp, but didn't kill her.
Vault 4
Contents = The Eye of Koreph.
Price = "Carry the Eternal Burden"
The party debated what to do, here. Ultimately, it was determined that the Eye of Koreph should be removed from this city. James was willing to take on that responsibility, and pay whatever price was in store.
As James committed to paying the price, he was greeted by the vision of an elderly woman, who looked completely exhausted. She was chained to a great host of other souls. She thanked James, then disappeared, and the chains linked on to James' soul.
He now carried the weight of every soul that had been slain by the Eye of Koreph. Several thousand were from times the Eye had been used by the people of Vol-Thagoryx, in the past, while tens of thousands more had been slain by it in untold ages.
He passed out, immediately, and in a comatose state he was individually greeted by each soul that was chained to him, who recounted to him the moments of their deaths, and the life they would never have.
Vault 5
Contents = Amulet of the Planes, Scimitar of Speed
Price = "Forsake Thy House, Curse They Home"
Tongar took the risk of paying this price. A voice asked him "What do you call home?". He tried to answer that he had no home, but the voice persisted. He finally answered that the Sea is his home. Immediately upon that thought, his love of the sea is replaced by loathing. Never again will he feel at home at sea, and never again shall he find a place to call home.
Vault 6
Contents = Sigil of Adarakk
This is a powerful artifact, said to be capable of slaying a god. It's not a match for the Eye of Koreph in sheer destructive force, but it has its uses.
Price = "Trust Not Thine Right Arm"
As we saw, Belias had an entire arm destroyed in order to unlock this vault.
Vault 7
Contents = Armor of Nyzh (pronounced neezh)
A suit of armor that can, at will, be sent to a pocket dimension, or retrieved. When it reappears, it is automatically on the wearer.
Price = "Sunder the Armor of the Mind"
Suneun, with great hesitancy, decided to take on this price. There was no immediate effect, but it can be assumed, from the riddle, that she will see some consequences, soon.
Vault 8
Contents = Skalamandas
The spear that struck down the the dragon, Skael. It has the power to control the great blue dragon.
Price = "Behold as Does the Wyrm"
Amirah paid this price, and her eyes were burned out by black fire. She can now only see as through the vision of the blue dragon, Skael, who is imprisoned somewhere else below the city.
Vault 9
Contents = Qi Xion's Cube
A five-inch cube of ornately carved wood. Any amount of money can be pulled from the cube, at will. However, there may be some adverse consequences paired with this effect.
Price = "Thy Greed Shall Mark Thee"
Tierriaryi wasted no time in paying this price. As a result, the rogue was stricken with a sudden mutation! Randomly determined from a Mutation table in another rpg, Tierriaryi now has two additional arms. Oops.
Arrival of the Iceshard
The party left the vault and went to sleep (they needed it). The next morning, it was learned that the enemy army had regrouped and been reinforced. They were preparing for another assault.
In addition, something is sighted out at sea, to the northwest of the city. A great iceberg, which appears to be some magical moving fortress, commanded by the remaining dekarii prophets! It assails the city with a bombardment of ice crystals. The Nekaris Shores, district, at the north end of the city, is completely destroyed.
Pinned between the giant iceberg fortress, known as the Iceshard, and the army that has regrouped for another attack, the party is in a dangerous predicament.

My heart is in total misery.
It is my love who gave this pain to me.
She told me she loved me, but is it true?
Or was it all a lie through and through?
My heart aches in unbearable pain.
It is filled with a raging storm and a painful rain.
Did she tell me only what I wanted to hear?
Is her love for me dying at a time that is near?
Oh, why torture me, what have I done?
If pain you were fighting for, your battle is won.
Oh God, your help I request.
I gave my all to her, I gave my best.
Please Merciful Father, take away my pain.
Bring her back into my arms with happiness again.
If you must, make it my last dying plea.
Love in her eyes I once again want to see.
Before God I swear this creed.
If I stop loving her, to death may I bleed.
Why treat me this way, oh God I must know.
But every time I ask, she shakes her head, no.
God, please remove this unbearable pain.
Take away this raging storm and this painful rain.

WASHINGTON -- Some Pentagon planners hope the end of the Cold War will signal the start of a new era -- the age of "mini-nukes," small nuclear weapons that might be used in future Third World conflicts.
Among the gleams in the nuclear planners' eyes is a "micro-nuke" with the explosive power of just 10 tons of TNT, an item that might be suitable for jobs like blasting Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein out of his Baghdad bunker.
A request to fund research into the new generation of small atomic weapons is included in President Clinton's 1994 budget proposal for the Department of Energy.


text: Birds in the bathroom fan or kitchen vent? Sparrows making nests in your attic or garage? Those little weaver finches in the attic may well be sparrows. Sometimes sparrows cause damage by pecking at insulation inside attics. The nests of sparrows can also be dangerous, as they can be potential fire hazards. Call Critter Control today for effective sparrow removal, control and exclusion services. Description Sparrows are some of the most common birds in the United States. They were originally introduced to North America in the mid-1800s and populations have since grown to include an estimated 70 million individuals. The two most abundant species in the region are song sparrows and house sparrows. They are usually found in close proximity to humans, are opportunistic feeders, and compete with native bird species for food and nesting sites. Appearance The two types of North American sparrows are similar in size but have slightly different features and markings. House sparrows are typically chestnut brown on top with tawny or white underbellies and black, gray, or brown patterns on their backs and wings. Males have black bibs, short black beaks, and gray patches on the top of their heads. Females tend to be duller in color with unmarked breasts and tan beaks. The coloration of song sparrows is dependent on their location in the United States. Some bear dark plumage, while others have lighter brown or gray feathers. Habitat Song sparrows tend to nest in dense thickets of grass but enjoy a wide variety of open habitats, such as marshes, fields, backyards, and forest edges. Since they are well accustomed to humans, song sparrows will also nest among rosebushes or flowerbeds. House sparrows prefer to nest in manmade structures, such as behind signs, beneath roof overhangs, among the rafters of open warehouses, and in streetlights. On city streets or in municipal parks, sparrows are often seen hopping along the ground pecking at seeds or bits of food. Entry Are sparrows known to enter homes or yards? Sparrows are extremely common around homes and yards. House sparrows in particular share a strong bond with humans and rely on them for everything from nesting sites to food. They like to nest in intrusive places, like roof eaves or in unoccupied outbuildings, while song sparrows tend to remain innocuous, living in gardens or bushes. Damage Do sparrows harm people or property? House sparrows are aggressive birds that harass and attack other native species, destroying their eggs and driving them away from food sources like bird feeders. Flocks of sparrows wreak havoc on home gardens and grain crops, as well as livestock feed and grass seeds. Their nesting habits cause further damage by blocking drains and ventilation ducts. House sparrow nests located in streetlights, on store signs, or under roof overhangs can become fire hazards. Control and Safety The most effective way to discourage house sparrows and song sparrows from taking up residence in unwanted areas is to remove potential nesting sites and food sources. Property owners should do things like eliminate birdfeeders, take care not to lay down unprotected grass seeds, seal or block crevices, holes in signs, unsecured lamp posts, and overhangs with wire mesh or cloth, cut back overgrown shrubbery, and mow thickets of grass. Trapping and Removal Though they are known to coexist peacefully with humans, sparrows are wild animals. As such, people should not attempt to approach or trap the birds. Critter Control wildlife experts are prepared to help manage unwanted sparrow problems in effective and humane manners. We can help you get rid of sparrow problems. Call today: 1.800.274.8837.
