In Control: Kahlelah's Story
"I used to be an exotic dancer. I was introduced to the profession during my senior year in college, October 2003, and remained so until March of 2006.
[Our Model Of The Day]
Where She's From: Kahlelah M. Goodine was born on Oct 12th, 1982, in Inglewood, CA, to Gregory and Valencia Goodine. She has an older sister Delilah (Kesha). "The most important thing I've learned from my parents is to never forget where home is," she tells The Black Star News.
"My dad told me that no matter what I do or where I go, there is always a candle burning in the window. Also, I have learned from them to not go through life holding tight to material things, even money. Learn to be able to let things go; through prayer and patience, tangible things will always return."
Kahlelah attended the University of California, Santa Cruz, where she received a BA in Film & Digital Media. "My first photo shoot was with my college friend, Erika Jones. She was majoring in Art, emphasizing photography," she adds. "My actual career didn't launch until the beginning of 2005, when I performed in my first fashion show in Fresno, California, of all places, and joined a good friend on her photo shoot, thus becoming my first photo shoot, launching what would be my modeling career." Photographer Jones site is www.ejonesphotography.com
Where She's At: Kahlelah has walked in several fashion shows, including LA Black Business Expo COOLTURE2007 fashion show and she's also been a product promo model.
"Because I have invested so much into my career, I see myself eventually in New York, then international," she says, with confidence. "I know that my future awaits in New York. Fashion editorials, high-profile fashion shows, endorsements, I see myself indulging in all of that."
"I tend to stay up late, and get minimal sleep because my mind is constantly moving," Kahlelah says, when asked how she deals with challenges.
"Right now I don't have an agent, so I'm juggling work, castings and go-sees, actual gigs-- My main goals are to get a car, a great agency or signed to an agency that is seeking my look, and to make a consistent living through modeling. Translation? I want modeling to pay my bills."
"Combining brainpower and beauty is imperative because beauty is passing, it is short-lived," Kahlelah cautions, other would –be-models. "Brainpower is a consistent propeller. One will be remembered for her beauty, but respected for her intelligence."
So how does this beauty prepare to step out?
"Currently I am using Proactiv for facial care. So far, it's making my skin super-smooth. For skin blemishes and dark spots I am using Ambi Fade Cream for oily skin, simply to maintain an even skin tone, which has been working pretty well. I love Nivea lotion, because of its concentrated thickness, given that I have very dry skin. I enjoy a wide variety of makeup; I love Mary Kay cosmetics because it was the first product line that actually made a difference in how my skin appeared before usage—I used to be a beauty consultant—but currently I'm using Kiss Colors foundation and loose powder, and different eye and cheek colors, Smashbox, Kiss Colors, Black Opal, Milani, Tropez, Tarte…"
Kahlelah's Words Of Wisdom: "Strive for what you desire. God knows the desires of your heart, so if you pray to Him and open up your heart, He will answer."
Kahlelah's Secrets Of Success: "Actually my secret is simply being the best I can be in all endeavors."
Kahlelah's Favorite Three Movies: "I'd have to say anything from Tyler Perry, and Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2."
Kahlelah's Favorite Three Books: "Sister, Sister by Eric Jerome Dickey, anything from Iyanla Vanzant, and I really like the book of Exodus. My father taught a Bible study serious on it, and how Moses led his people out of Egypt. Extremely captivating story."
Leaders That Have Inspired Kahlelah: "My parents inspire me, because through all their trials and tribulations, including a drug addiction, they have somehow withstood all battles, and remained together. I greatly admire my mother and father for all they have taught me, raising me with discipline even though they were not in the best of positions, and keeping a roof over our heads, no matter what Satan has tossed our way."
The First Three Things Kahlelah Would Do As President: "First, end this senseless war. Second, create a law that makes all hate incidents illegal along with hate crimes—it's funny how people differentiate between the two, I know from personal experience. Third, redirect government money to building homeless shelters and jobs for the poor."
Kahlelah's Favorite Cars: "Mercedes Benz will always be my all-time favorite. Since Junior High, I have admired the sophistication and elegance of the Benz."
Kahlelah's Favorite Entertainers: "Beyonce and Alicia Keyes are at the top of my list for ladies. Gentlemen would currently be Trey Songz, Jay-Z and 50 Cent."
Kahlelah's Favorite websites: "Model Mayhem and Myspace."
Optional Kahlelah Story: "I used to be an exotic dancer. I was introduced to the profession during my senior year in college, October 2003, and remained so until March of 2006. I met a guy who pretty much swept me off my feet, for lack of a better explanation. I trusted and confided in him, and my love for him soon followed. He managed dancers, and it wasn't like he began in the midst of our relationship. This was his profession at the time, and I did not feel it would have been nice to judge based on what one does, if they were professional about it.
What soon emerged were problems with women, how I viewed myself as a person my accomplishments, failures, and relationship strife. I thought to myself, 'how could I be a college grad-turned-adult entertainer? Well, it's very simple; it's all about choices. My downward spiral did not involve drugs, however, physical, mental and emotional pain were my consequences. March 2006 marked my unwanted but necessary move back home and I fought it tooth and nail. My move was the best thing to happen to me. Moral to this story? Anybody can make mistakes, and anybody can been redeemed, if they wish to be."

Fulton County offers new tool to track sex offenders | News
FULTON COUNTY, Ga. -- Fulton County has the largest number of registered sex offenders in the state. This week they introduced a new way to help residents track those offenders.
The county is tracking all corners with OffenderWatch. Residents can type in any address in the county and see all sex offenders within a two-mile radius. Other local counties use it already, from Cobb to Coweta to Bartow; Fulton officials say they benefit from that network of data.
"This system's gonna allow us to work with multiple different agencies," said Sgt. Hector Caballero of the Fulton County Sheriff's office. "We're able to merge information to them within minutes."
The Georgia Bureau Investigation has a similar page on its web site. Fulton officials say theirs offers residents the chance to sign up for alerts when sex offenders move into their neighborhood. Residents can also alert the county of any wrongdoing in the area.
For more, go to the OffenderWatch page.

A deluxe round on Spain's Mediterranean coast
Campo de golf con vistas al mar. Alcaidesa Club de Golf, La Línea-Cádiz
The Mediterranean coast of Spain could well be called the "Costa del Golf", without any exaggeration. Why? On account of its varied array of clubs, its weather, its leisure activities… Did you know that some of the courses here are considered amongst Europe's best? Come and see for yourself: there is so much fun to be had on and off the green that you won't know whether to postpone your round.
If you are thinking about golf, then Spain's Mediterranean coast will be a real discovery. Firstly on account of the broad array of courses on offer. All along the coast there are challenges and fun for all, whether you are a beginner or an expert. There are courses that host major tournaments and many have also been designed by famous golf stars. The wonderful Mediterranean climate means you can play almost any day of the year – another advantage. Add to this the host of additional leisure options available: theme parks, monuments, spa resorts, gastronomy, countryside, shopping… and, of course, beaches. Your travelling companions will be thrilled.
The list could continue, with the area's great communications, excellent hotel infrastructure and the variety of settings, but you are sure to want to know exactly what awaits you.
The majority of golf courses in Catalonia are in its coastal areas. There are plenty to choose from, with clubs on the Costa Brava in Girona province, the Costa Daurada in Tarragona province and on the Barcelona coast. When it is time to put the clubs away for the day, you will also find that there are a host of options. A few suggestions? You could have a relaxing treatment at the Spa Resorts in Caldes de Malavella or Caldes de Montbui; discover some stunning landscapes with an outing to Garrotxa; visit the UNESCO World Heritage-designated works of Gaudíin Barcelona; discover the universe of Dalí at his theatre-museum in Figueres; have a fun day out at the Port Aventura Theme Park; go on a boat trip at the Salou-Cambrils-Montroig Marine Resort, have lunch in the old town of Sitges…
The Balearic Islands
The archipelago has more than 20 golf courses between Majorca, Minorca and Ibiza. The majority of them are in Majorca. However, there is no problem getting from one island to another – there are scheduled sea and air services between them. Here, not only will you enjoy the golf, but also the countryside: for example, the Sierra de Tramuntana Mountains, the Cabrera National Park and Minorca, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Do you prefer art? Then you will be more than satisfied with the cultural programme and museums to be found in Palma de Mallorca, with the historic centre of Eivissa, which has the World Heritage designation, and with the important megalithic monuments to be found around the archipelago. If you want to discover the most beautiful places in the Balearic Islands, then the best thing is a boat trip: they will organise every last detail for you at any of the five marine resorts.
Region of Valencia
Here you will find almost thirty golf clubs in the different provinces of the Region: Castellón, Valencia and Alicante. You can play your favourite sport while you enjoy all the flavour of the Mediterranean in renowned tourist destinations such as Altea, Benidorm, Dénia, Orihuela, Jávea, Gandía, Elche and Borriol, a town which hosts a PGA European Tour event each year. If you are travelling as a family, then you are in luck because there are so many options for children: from the Arts and Sciences Centre, through to the Terra Mítica Theme Park and the new Bioparc Zoo. Not to be missed either are the cultural routes in the city of Valencia and the wonderful Elche Palm Grove, which features on the UNESCO World Heritage list.
In Murcia you can combine sport, health and beauty. This Region in southeastern Spain has around a dozen courses and an area that is one big open-air spa resort: La Manga del Mar Menor. When you finish your round, go and experience the properties of its famous muds on the beach itself or at one of the treatment centres. Leave time for some water sports at the Mar Menor Marine Resort or to discover the cultural wealth of Cartagena.
In the south, furthermore, there is the Mediterranean coast of Andalusia. In the provinces of Almería and Granada you will find courses practically right on the beach, such as those in Mojácar, Roquetas de Mar and Motril. Nevertheless, the top golfing area is Malaga province, the real "Costa del Golf", with more than 40 courses at your disposal. Here there are famous names such as Marbella and Estepona; you will also find several clubs in towns like Mijas, Benalmádena and Casares. Special mention should be made of the San Roque area, on the Mediterranean coast of Cadiz province, where there are highly prestigious courses such as Real Club de Sotogrande and Valderrama, setting for the Ryder Cup.
So now you know – boredom is out of the question if you choose Spain's Mediterranean coast. You just have to be up for a round. Use our golf course search engine to find the clubs in each place.

We set it up. And soaped it up (because that's what they always do in the movies). Only Miles decided to soap up himself, instead.
One of our favorite things about Miles is the way his lip quivers when he gets chilly. The cold water really got the lip going today. But don't feel too sorry for him- it was almost 90 degrees outside! (There is no essential audio in this short video if you don't feel like pausing the playlist)
When we were finished sliding for the day, the kids realized that we had forced a ton of night crawlers out of their holes with all of our water wasting. So they went on a worm round up.
Sadie and Noah took those worms over to the swingset and I thought that they were burying them in the sandbox. However, I realized (all to late) that they were actually performing worm operations. Those poor worms got hacked to pieces with plastic sandbox shovels and their guts got strewn about the back yard. I have evidently not done an adequate job of teaching respect for all of God's creatures.
But all in all, the slip n' slide was a fantastic purchase. If this is a preview of how wonderful summer is going to be then I can't wait for it to start! Now- if I could just convince Kamron that we need a pool!

About Hill of Tarvit
French Chippendale-style furniture and paintings by Raeburn line the family rooms of this Edwardian mansion house, completed in 1906 by the architect Sir Robert Lorimer. 'Below stairs', the kitchen and pantry have been perfectly preserved to give an insight into the work of the servants who kept the household running.
The estate lies among a patchwork of rolling farmland, and has its own superbly kept sunken rose and kitchen gardens, as well as a restored Edwardian hickory-club golf course.
About the area
Hill of Tarvit lies just outside Cupar, ten miles from St Andrews, home to Scotland's oldest university and the world's most famous golf course. Fife's East Neuk is a short drive away, offering pristine beaches, picture-perfect harbours and delicious fresh seafood.
The nearest shops are 1 mile away in Ceres and 2.5 miles away in Cupar.
Things to do
- Head to Anstruther for a stroll along the harbour. After taking in the views across to the Isle of May and the pastel and white cottages lining the shore, grab some award-winning fish and chips at the Anstruther Fish Bar.
- For a day at the beach, St Andrews's West Sands, Elie's Harbour Beach, Burntisland and Aberdour's Silver Sands all have Blue Flags, meaning they are clean, safe and offer good facilities.
- Spend a day in Renaissance paradise at nearby Falkland Palace. The country retreat of the Stuart Kings was a favourite of Mary Queen of Scots and is filled with elaborate antique furnishings.
Getting there
Hill of Tarvit lies off the A916, 2 miles south of Cupar and 1 mile from Ceres. Cupar Railway station offers the closest train links.

It is hard to imagine a more tumultuous week on Wall Street. The markets have moved down faster than the barometer before that last wind storm.
Many have talked about the impacts of Wall Street on Main Street. The economic pundits have explained this downward spiral as a "correction" to the market. They call it a bear market when the markets go down 20 percent; this has gone down 40 percent. Obviously, this is a big bad bear that is as grumpy as me when I get woke up from my nap.
I would like to offer my two cents (all that is left after this last week) about this so called "correction" to the market. I wonder to some extent if all this catastrophic calamity won't also provide a "correction" to our collective moral compass.
As all the wealth is wiped out and the illusion of prosperity and its accompanying materialism is washed away, people are left to hold on to something that matters.
And what matters is family, friends, and God. It seems that this "correction" to the market is also making people re-think their addiction to debt and their reckless materialism created by readily available credit and our demand for instant satisfaction.
During this time when we spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less maybe it was time for a "correction" to our perspectives of what is really important.
These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, larger fancier houses, but broken homes and smaller families, and big men with small character. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We listen to experts and ignore our kids. We drink and smoke too much; pop pills for every ache and pain imagined and then complain about rising health care costs. We exercise to add years to our life but have failed to add life to our years.
We pass laws to clean the air and water but allowed our souls to become polluted with materialism. We apologize for having families instead of careers. We claim tolerance and enlightenment and yet aren't allowed to pray in public, we kicked God out of schools, and won't salute the flag; but want God's help to save our country.
As awful as is this "correction" to the market; most experts agree that the free market will make its adjustments and should be allowed to do so. Perhaps this is the time to use the pain of this capitalistic "correction" to get our bearings and find that when all that has washed away we are again grateful for the simpler most basic things in life.
Perhaps we will be moved to say a kind word to a neighbor and look past the imperfection of others and give forgiveness; those things don't cost anything.
Maybe we will give someone we love, but have forgotten how to show it, a hug, a kiss, or just hold hands; that probably doesn't cost too much.
Maybe we will spend time with a child playing on the grass instead of buying them another game or iPod; that might even save money.
Maybe we will sit around the kitchen table and talk with our family instead of go through the drive-thru and eat on the run. Maybe instead of texting our kids we will look them in the eye and tell them how much we love them and how important they are to us. I'll bet that will not cost too much either.
Maybe we will remember what makes that special person special, how we felt the first time we looked into our newborn's eyes, how we felt when they giggled for the first time, the last time we held the hand of a dying spouse and watched as the flicker of life left; none of those things cost and might make us realize that money, stocks, and the markets aren't the real story of life.
Perhaps if the press spent more time talking about what matters, this "correction" might not only bring the markets back, but will provide a "correction" to our collective moral compass and we will start to focus on family, friends, and God; and perhaps that is the greatest impact to Main Street.

THOUSAND OAKS, CA -- In the first day of the Posada Royale Winter Classic, UC Santa Cruz used a late first-half run to upset No. 17 Emmanuel (Mass.) while Cal Lutheran overcame Scranton in the final minutes, defeating the Lady Royals 44-42 in the night cap Sunday afternoon in Gilbert Arena on the campus of Cal Lutheran.
Game 1: Trailing 15-14 with 13:42 to play in the first half, UC Santa Cruz went on a 20-7 run over the next eight minutes and wouldn't trail the rest of the game. Sarah Mackey had 12 of her game-high 24 points in the first half while the Banana Slugs defense forced 14 turnovers.
The second half saw a balanced offense attack from the Banana Slugs as Lashay Alexander, Leah Parrish and Taylor Willis would all score over double-figures.
Emmanuel would get as close as five at 48-43 when Jennifer Bujnowski hit a jumper with 11:05 left to play in the second half. UC Santa Cruz responded by hitting four consecutive free-throws on the following two possessions.
Four minutes later, Geena Giovannetti connected on a pair of free-throws as UC Santa Cruz iced the game, enlarging their lead to 13 at 58-45.
UC Santa Cruz would coast the rest of the way, eventually defeating Emmanuel 72-55.
The Slugs were led by Mackey's 24 points. Alexander was second with 11 points while Parrish and Willis each chipped in with 10.
Emmanuel was led by Fiona O'Dwyer's 23 points and eight rebounds. Bujnowski was second on the team with eight points.
With the win, UC Santa Cruz improves to 10-3 overall and will face Cal Lutheran tomorrow, December 31, at 3:00 p.m.
Emmanuel drops to 8-2 overall and will play Scranton tomorrow at 1:00 p.m.
Box Score: UC Santa Cruz 72 Emmanuel 55
Game 2: Despite shooting a season-low 22 percent from the field, Cal Lutheran overcame a 17-point second half deficit and defeated Scranton (Penn.) 44-42 Sunday evening.
Scranton, who led for 38 minutes of the game, extended their lead to 17 after Noelle Alicea hit a three-pointer with 14:45 remaining in the game.
However, Cal Lutheran would put the clamps on any further Lady Royals offense, holding Scranton without a basket for the next 10 minutes and 15 seconds while also trimming the lead to 38-35.
The teams would then exchange baskets before Starla Wright hauled in a defensive rebound and hit a streaking Channing Fleischmann for a fast break lay-up, pulling the Regals even with Scranton at 40 apiece with a little over two minutes left to play.
Erica Whitley would come up big for the Regals, fending off two Lady Royals for a rebound on Scranton's next possession. Whitley was fouled as she collected the rebound and hit one of her two three throws, giving CLU the first lead since the first of the minute game.
Scranton forward Meredith Mesaris would connect on a 12-footer on the following possession as the Lady Royals reclaimed the lead at 42-41.
With 48 seconds left to play, Keeley Anderson had an open look for three along the right sideline before it caromed off the rim. A scrum for the rebound ensued but Wright came up with a crucial offensive rebound and was fouled directly after, putting CLU over the double bonus. Wright would convert both free-throws and give CLU the lead at 43-42.
Scranton would get one last look as Lindsay Fluehr tried to get open for a three but Whitley would come up with the game-winning deflection as time expired before Scranton get off a shot.
Wright had her sixth double-double of the season with 14 points and 13 rebounds. Fleischmann was second with seven points while Natalie Stone and Whitley each had six rebounds.
CLU held Scranton's leading scorer, Mesaris, ten points under her average as she finished with 12 points. Fluehr was second with six points and 12 rebounds.
With the win, Cal Lutheran improves to 9-2 overall while Scranton drops to 9-3. Cal Lutheran is set to host UC Santa Cruz at 3:00 p.m. tomorrow while Scranton will host Emmanuel at 1:00 p.m. in Gilbert Arena.
Box Score: CLU 44 Scranton 42

In Lee's 'Introduction to smooth manifolds' he states that given smooth manifolds X,Y and a surjective submersion f:X→Y, then f is a smoothly final map, that is for any further smooth manifold Z, and any map g:Y→Z, we have g smooth iff g∘f is smooth.
He then says that problem 4.7 shows why this property is 'characteristic'. I can't see why the reverse implication should hold.
Unfortunately, google-books doesn't show that page, nor do I have access to a mathematical library, can some-one enlighten me as to what he means?
One of the answers to this question states a characteristic property, but it doesn't appear on the face of it what Lee has in mind.

Dr. Drew Pinsky says Lindsay Lohan may be on the right track.
With the actress' decision to enter the Pickford Lofts sober-living facilities and hire attorney Robert Shapiro (who founded the Lofts), the "Celebrity Rehab" star told Access Hollywood's Tony Potts on Friday that he was optimistic for Lindsay.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Lindsay Lohan's Day in Court (July 6, 2010)
U.S. & World
"This girl has great potential for treatment," he told Tony. "Mandate a year, have three years of urine toxicology to follow that – this girl would do very well.
"She should've gone in the day she left the courtroom," he added of Lindsay's arrival in the sober-living home. "This judge has had enough of her nonsense. [Lindsay's] active in her disease. She's lying and blaming and doing these things that addicts do. There's evidence now that she's on pharmaceutical medications, which explains why [there is] all this craziness."
VIEW THE PHOTOS: The Trials & Tribulations Of Lindsay Lohan
Dr. Drew added that he is concerned that Lindsay will stay on her various medications, which, in previously revealed court documents, include Adderall, Zoloft and other prescription drugs, during her 90-day jail sentence.
"Presumably they will give her some medical management. They may just continue her on those medications. Not only could jail potentially harden her, she may end up on these pharmaceuticals the entire time," he said, noting those decisions will come down to Lindsay's doctors.
He also praised her new attorney and showed sympathy for Lindsay's longtime attorney Shawn Chapman Holley, who asked to exit the case not long after Judge Marsha Revel sentenced Lindsay to jail time.

"It's very frustrating to deal with people like this," Dr. Drew said. "Robert Shapiro's a great guy, dedicated to treating addicts. How sincere [Lindsay's] attachment is to the process remains to be seen… My fear is that something is going to happen to her before she finds that motivation to get well."
The reality doc also weighed in on his past Twitter sparring with Lindsay, explaining he felt the actress was linking him to her father, Michael Lohan.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Lindsay Lohan: The Early Years
"I represent her father to her," he said. "She's had a very tumultuous and traumatizing experience with her dad. Her dad is now appropriately advocating on her behalf but she can't see that. She sees just the past and somehow I get linked up with that, too."
Lindsay is due to report to jail on Tuesday. In a statement to Access Hollywood on Friday, Shapiro said the star would accept the "requirement of jail."
"I have agreed to represent Ms. Lohan on the condition she comply with the terms of probation, including a requirement of jail, imposed by Judge Marsha Revel," Shapiro said in the statement. "Ms. Lohan is suffering from a disease that I am all too familiar with. Hopefully, I can be of assistance to Ms. Lohan and Judge Revel in implementing a treatment approach recommended by medical professionals for Ms. Lohan's long term recovery and sobriety."

Assistant Professor of Visual Culture
Professor Bouman's research interests include contemporary art; video installation art; the rhetorical forms of visual culture, avant-garde television, and the mediated production of the public sphere. Her book project, "Between the Revolutions: From Televisions Avant-Garde to the Televisual and the Avant-Garde", is under consideration at Minnesota University Press. Organized chronologically and thematically, it analyzes the presence of television and the televisual that permeates video and video installation art from the 1970s to the present. Her new research regards the complex interrelationship between contemporary art and commercial film and popular music. A portion of this research appears in an article on Christian Marclay's The Clock published in the Journal of Curatorial Practice (2014). Both her book project and new research addresses the manner in which persistent strands of high Modernism, with its fiction of existing only for itself, continues to find articulations of mass media and avant-gardism—such as video art made for television, or postproduction artworks that are embedded in a broader culture of circulation and sharing—incapacitating, commercializing, compromising, and de-aestheticizing. Bouman's publications in visual studies address the real political and worldly significance of understanding visual forms and how they communicate (2011, 2013).

As a University of Colorado alumnus (but not a Trustafarian), I'm on the whole supportive of the CU board of regents' greenlighting of the $143 million in upgrades to athletic facilities in Boulder.
Short of a SALT treaty, that's the minimal amount of investment necessary moving forward for CU in the real world of Pac 12 sports.
But I'm uneasy, too.
Somewhere Mike Bohn is laughing. He was fired as athletic director in late May, primarily because president Bruce Benson — who has done an absolutely amazing job of essentially privatizing a public university and finding revenue streams in the wake of vanishing state support — was unhappy with the progress of athletic department fund-raising.
And now, four-plus months later, CU has green-lighted that project, despite still having raised "only" $10 million as seed money. The seed-money goal for the $143 million project was $50 million by December.
I get it: George, who reported for duty in mid-August, deserves time to build up fund-raising traction.
But any attempt to portray him as having pulled off a miracle turnaround and justifying Bohn's firing that way is absurd.

What's New
The Narrow Gauge Railroad Time Forgot...
Nestled in the hills of south central Pennsylvania is a railroad that time has left behind. When you visit the East Broad Top Railroad today, you will find a ghost railroad, shut down over 50 years ago, but never abandoned. Sitting quietly ever since, the East Broad Top Railroad is a slice of history that, unlike many other small lines, was never torn up.
Now, the same rails that at once saw steam engines hauling trains of coal rust quietly in the forest. In Rockhill Furnace, the shops, originally built in the nineteenth century and fully equipped to maintain the railroad, its locomotives and rolling stock, wait for the skilled workers who will never return. In this time capsule of American Industrial History, you can still find work started over a half century ago waiting patiently for the skilled hands, long gone, to return to the lathes, drills and forges.
Preserving & Restoring Living History
Our mission is the preservation and restoration of the East Broad Top Railroad. Our museum in Robertsdale contains a priceless collection of artifacts from the railroad's common carrier era. At Rockhill Furnace and Robertsdale vital work is under way to stabilize, preserve and restore historic railroad structures, track and rolling stock. FEBT has documented many of the railroad's buildings, some of which have fallen victims of the ravages of time. Our publication, the Timber Transfer documents the ongoing research and work done by the society. Our "Company Store" provides documents, plans, books and DVDs for those who are interested in the East Broad Top Railroad, as well as modeling supplies for those who may wish to recreate the EBT in model form.
Over 900 strong, our members work to not only research and document the EBT's past, but also to ensure this National Historic Landmark, the oldest original narrow gauge railroad east of the Mississippi, continues as a living history museum for future generations to enjoy.
We invite you to learn more about the East Broad Top Railroad and Friends of the East Broad Top by exploring our web site. Then why not join us and help keep alive a unique piece of American history.

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--(NASDAQ:AMZN)—Less than 10,000 words or more than 50,000: that is the choice writers have generally faced for more than a century—works either had to be short enough for a magazine article or long enough to deliver the "heft" required for book marketing and distribution. But in many cases, 10,000 to 30,000 words (roughly 30 to 90 pages) might be the perfect, natural length to lay out a single killer idea, well researched, well argued and well illustrated—whether it's a business lesson, a political point of view, a scientific argument, or a beautifully crafted essay on a current event.
Today, Amazon is announcing that it will launch "Kindle Singles"—Kindle books that are twice the length of a New Yorker feature or as much as a few chapters of a typical book. Kindle Singles will have their own section in the Kindle Store and be priced much less than a typical book. Today's announcement is a call to serious writers, thinkers, scientists, business leaders, historians, politicians and publishers to join Amazon in making such works available to readers around the world.
"Ideas and the words to deliver them should be crafted to their natural length, not to an artificial marketing length that justifies a particular price or a certain format," said Russ Grandinetti, Vice President, Kindle Content. "With Kindle Singles, we're reaching out to publishers and accomplished writers and we're excited to see what they create."
Like all Kindle content, Kindle Singles will be "Buy Once, Read Everywhere"—customers will be able to read them on Kindle, Kindle 3G, Kindle DX, iPad, iPod touch, iPhone, Mac, PC, BlackBerry, and Android-based devices. Amazon's Whispersync technology syncs your place across devices, so you can pick up where you left off. In addition, with the Kindle Worry-Free Archive, Kindle Singles will be automatically backed up online in your Kindle library on Amazon where they can be re-downloaded wirelessly for free, anytime.
To be considered for Kindle Singles, interested parties should contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

I've always loved latkes. Onions and potatoes are just made for each other. I've tried my hand at latkes before – here and here – with crowd-pleasing results. But I would have to say that these were our favorites so far. This recipe made about 16 latkes for me, and I only used 5 tablespoons of olive oil. Although I made the sour cream mixture for serving, we went a little light on it.
Cilantro-jalapeno latkes (modified from CookingLight)
6 tablespoons soy sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped chipotle chile, canned in adobo sauce
3/4 teaspoons grated lime rind
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
6 cups shredded, peeled, baking potato (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 cup grated fresh onion
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon finely chopped seeded jalapeno pepper
1 large egg
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Combine first 4 ingredients in a small bowl, stirring well. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
Combine potato and onion in a colander. Drain 30 minutes, pressing occasionally with the back of a spoon until barely moist. Combine potato mixture, flour, and next 5 ingredients (including salt) in a large bowl; toss well.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil to pan; swirl to coat. Spoon 1/4 cup potato mixture into dry measuring cup. Pour mixture into pan; flatten slightly. Repeat the procedure 5 times to form 6 latkes. Saute 3 1/2 minutes on each side or until golden brown and thoroughly cooked. Remove latkes from pan; keep warm. Repeat procedure with next 2 tablespoons oil and potato mixture to yield 12 latkes total. If you have any potato mixture leftover, use the final tablespoon oil and make the rest of the latkes. Serve with sour cream mixture.

Naughty Dog has defended its use of Sony's "PSN Pass" by claiming that, without it, Uncharted 3's multiplayer would need to be released as its own game. Wait ... that doesn't make any sense.
Director Justin Richmond said that either his game uses an online pass "or we offer online completely in its entirety also, so we have a complete offline package as well, so if you want to play the co-op with a friend, you can do that offline."
Fortunately, Richmond had a more stereotypical answer as well -- crying about server costs despite the fact that the server space was paid for with the original sale: "When that stuff goes online, it isn't free. We have to pay for servers and all this different stuff to maintain it, and so at some point, you know, games have to make money. It is a business, and we just wanna be able to continue to provide that kind of content. If Sony ever comes to us and says "You're not making enough money on this, you need to cut it" or whatever, that's not something that we want. We want to be able to maintain the level of quality of the product that we're giving out."
Never mind the fact that the game is still going to sell a ton of $60 copies at launch and will inevitably have paid multiplayer DLC added, let's just keep pretending that UNCHARTED F*CKING 3 wouldn't make any money without an online pass! Seriously, I'd have infinitely more respect for a company that admitted it just wanted more cash. This little pity party developers keep throwing is among the slimiest things I've seen from the industry in a while.

Prophetic Song -Gateway to Glory By Stan Smith. Book Review
What is Prophetic Song?
I can think of many people who would answer that question like this: Prophetic Song is a song that is prophetic, right? How would you define Prophetic Song?
In his subtitle, Prophetic Song author Stan Smith seems to define prophetic song to be a gateway to glory.
Gateway to glory?……think about those words for a moment. gateway. gate. in and out. open and shut.
in and out.
open and shut.
smoke and clouds?
what is glory?
My thoughts on Prophetic Song
This book is a complete educational meal when it comes to the prophetic song. It reminded me of a textbook. It took me longer to read than some of the other recent books. There were several things I really appreciated about this book, but first, let me share my favorite quotes:
Worship Leading quotes by Stan Smith, author of Prophetic Song
Here are a few thought-provoking quotes from this worship leading book:
- There is a friendship with God so intimate that he tells us what he is doing.
- If you want more of the Holy Spirit, center your attention on Jesus, His favorite subject matter.
- We don't have to be afraid to make mistakes because our audience is God, not man.
- The song that matches the sound of nature is singing in the Spirit.
- Living water is given not for theologians to discuss but to revive the parched souls who have lived in the desert of sin and death.
- Open your Bible and sing a line of scripture.
- Don't try to outplay the people around you, but try to make them sound good.
- The things of God can't be reduced to a formula.
- Take the anointing off me and put it on the song.
- Sometimes there is a richer anointing on worship practice than on the service itself.
- Spirit led worship never grows old and stale, it is always fresh.
- The best investment we can make is to do everything we can to make room for the presence of God.
- Sometimes God does not entrust a higher anointing on us until we respect Hid anointing on others.
- We can't buy the anointing with money.
- I can choose to sing and play something spontaneous, God still has the freedom to decide whether to make it prophetic.
My Take-Aways from Prophetic Song
There are two things that really stuck out to me as I read Prophetic Song. These two ideas intrigued me because I had never heard or thought things this way before. Find out what they are…
I really think it is an exciting moment when what I have knowledge of is expanded to new borders and insights. I guess some people call this revelation. I heard a great definition of Revelation once: revealed knowledge.
Idea #1
In the book of revelation, it was brought to my attention that Jesus has two prophetic voices. Both sounds are the voice of the same God. Perhaps He has more, but these are the two prophetic voices I learned about:
- One of Jesus' voices is the sound of many waters. This is said to almost always be our prophetically anointed voice speaking to God thru worship in spirit and truth in a corporate setting.
- The other prophetic voice is the sound of the trumpet. It's the prophetic voice of God addressing to an assembled people.
I am trying to defend or promote any doctrine about the two prophetic voices of Jesus. I simply wanted to share something that intrigued me.
Idea #2
There are two rivers flowing out from the throne of God. One is a river of living water clear as crystal. The other is a river of fire. Without going into any explanations, this idea also peaked my curiosity. This river of fire can be found in Daniel 7:9-10
"….His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him….."
I think Stan Smith takes this idea of two rivers and develops quite an interesting idea of Gods Glory. Get the book and find out more.
Action Step
Finally, This prophetic song textbook closes each chapter with two assignments. One for non-musicians and singers. one for musicians.

Associated Press
DETROIT (AP) -- Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder and Detroit emergency manager Kevyn Orr, the two men most involved in the decision to make the city the nation's largest to file for bankruptcy, testified Monday that a court-led reorganization is necessary to save a city embroiled in crisis.
The men were summoned on the fourth day of a rare trial before federal Judge Steven Rhodes to determine whether the city could fix its troubled finances in bankruptcy court. They were grilled for hours by attorneys representing groups that oppose the bankruptcy, which was authorized by Snyder and filed in July by Orr.
Those attorneys, representing unions, state retirees and others, sought to show that the two had plowed ahead with bankruptcy proceedings without good faith negotiations or regard to pension protections in the state constitution. Orr has said cuts to state pension benefits could be part of a bankruptcy deal.
Orr and Snyder said the city's rising debt and falling revenue, combined with lawsuits against them and a lack of cooperation among debtholders, forced them to seek the court's intervention.
"This is not the way any major city ... should operate or should look," said Orr, citing widespread and persistent problems such as blight, poor public services and crime. "I don't think any serious person ... would say the city is not in need of some form of remediation."
During the trial, Detroit must show it is broke and tried in good faith to negotiate with creditors. Orr, who represented automaker Chrysler LLC during its successful restructuring, has said the city is saddled with $18 billion in long-term debt.
In the days leading up to the bankruptcy filing, retirees sued, claiming their pensions are protected by the constitution and are at risk in a bankruptcy. The lawsuits were put on hold with the bankruptcy petition.
Snyder, a Republican, said that the bankruptcy filing wasn't an attempt to forestall court-imposed injunctions that could result from the lawsuits, but that he was concerned that the lawsuits from state retirees and others showed that there "wasn't a meeting of the minds" and that the city needed to protect itself as it struggled to pay bills.
"Bankruptcy is a very last resort," he said. "It was a tremendously difficult decision to make, but the right one," he added.
Attorneys for both sides were largely respectful of the governor -- a lawyer for the city mistakenly called him "your honor" several times -- but some exchanges between Snyder and attorneys opposing the bankruptcy became testy. Snyder frequently said "I don't recall" or cited attorney-client privilege. Some attorneys objected to Snyder opting to remain silent when asked about things he said to Orr or others if a lawyer was in the room, though the objections were often overruled.
Dozens of protesters critical of Snyder showed up outside the courthouse just before he took the stand in the afternoon. They carried signs, one depicting him with devil's horns.
Earlier Monday, Orr testified that he had thought as late as June that a bankruptcy filing could be avoided but that he knew time was running out for the city and its creditors to agree to concessions. Orr said he received a couple of counterproposals from creditors after a June meeting, but none from unions or retirees before filing for bankruptcy protection.
"Detroit spends more than it takes in. It is clearly insolvent on a cash-flow basis," Orr testified as he read from a report he issued in spring after 45 days as emergency manager.
Anthony Ullman, an attorney representing retirees, wanted to know why Orr and his team did not mention in the proposal to creditors that the city sought to cut public pensions, which are protected in the Michigan Constitution. Orr said it was widely known and discussed at the time, and argued that federal law would trump the state as it relates to pensions protections.
The trial could end this week, but a decision on Detroit's eligibility appears to be several more weeks away. The judge has set a Nov. 13 deadline for lawyers to file legal briefs on certain issues.

There are plans to build a new nuclear power plant at Sellafield in Cumbria
The UK is to sign a deal with France to strengthen co-operation in the development of civil nuclear energy.
The government says it reiterates the UK's commitment to nuclear energy "as part of a diversified energy mix".
The coalition says the agreement will create a number of commercial deals in the nuclear energy field, worth more than £500m and creating 1,500 UK jobs.
Defence will also be on the agenda as PM David Cameron and President Nicolas Sarkozy hold a summit in Paris.
An announcement about joint development of a future unmanned aircraft is also expected.'Joint framework'
"This joint declaration will signal our shared commitment to the future of civil nuclear power, setting out a shared long term vision of safe, secure, sustainable and affordable energy, that supports growth and helps to deliver our emission reductions targets," a statement from Downing Street said.
The two governments will work together with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) "to strengthen international capability to react to nuclear emergencies and establish a joint framework for cooperation and exchanging good practice on civil nuclear security".The move comes 11 months after the tsunami in Japan which wrecked the nearby the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, leaking radioactive material into the air and sea.
UK and French public and private sector bodies in the civil nuclear power industry will also work more closely in a number of areas.
These include education and training; research and development, and security.
"As two great civil nuclear nations, we will combine our expertise to strengthen industrial partnership, improve nuclear safety and create jobs at home," said Mr Cameron.
Eight sitesLast June, ministers announced plans for the next generation of UK nuclear plants.
The government confirmed a list of eight sites it deems suitable for new power stations by 2025, all of which are adjacent to existing nuclear sites.
The sites are: Bradwell, Essex; Hartlepool; Heysham, Lancashire; Hinkley Point, Somerset; Oldbury, Gloucestershire; Sellafield, Cumbria; Sizewell, Suffolk; and Wylfa, Anglesey.
And earlier this month the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved the first nuclear reactors to be built in the country since 1978.
The EU budget treaty was on the agenda when the two leaders last met in Paris in December
