This morning I asked my sports reporter husband if he knew who Jeremy Lin was. He laughed and responded: "Do you know who Billy Graham is?" Feeling a little silly, I started reading up on the couch-surfing basketball star who is apparently taking the world by storm, or at least the NBA. "Forget Tebowing," the Associated Press says. "Linsanity is the new sports sensation."
Lin, an undrafted point guard from Harvard who wants to become a pastor, led the New York Knicks past the LA Lakers with a career-high 38 points Friday night. In two parts, the New York Times looked at how the star is impacting a particular community with a fantastic quote from a party of Asian American Christians. "I don't even follow football," one woman said. "Wait, this isn't football."
If Lin's storybook week captured the imagination of New York City and the wider sports world, it hit the community of Christian Asian-Americans like a lightning bolt.
I especially appreciated this fascinating piece from Michael Luo, an investigative reporter for the Times, who draws on Lin's popularity and his own experience to make a point about Asian American Christian culture.
Like Lin, I'm a Harvard graduate, albeit more than a decade ahead of him, and a second-generation Chinese-American. I'm also a fellow believer, one of those every-Sunday-worshiping, try-to-read-the-Bible-and-pray types, who agreed with Lin when he said to reporters after the Jazz game, "God works in mysterious and miraculous ways."
Being a believer can mean different things in different circles. In a lot of the ones Lin and I have traveled, it can mean, essentially, you are a bit of a weirdo, or can make you an object of scorn.
Lin's ethnicity is definitely part of the media's storyline, since he is the NBA's first American-born player of Taiwanese or Chinese descent and just the league's fourth Asian American. But there's a faith backdrop that a few outlets are picking up on, making the inevitable Tim Tebow comparisons. Luo makes the case that Lin will not, in fact, become a Tebow for the NBA because of how he approaches his faith.
Some have predicted that Lin, because of his faith, will become the Taiwanese Tebow, a reference to Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow, whose outspokenness about his evangelical Christian beliefs has made him extraordinarily popular in some circles and venomously disliked in others. But my gut tells me that Lin will not wind up like Tebow, mainly because Lin's persona is so strikingly different. From talking to people who knew him through the Harvard-Radcliffe Asian American Christian Fellowship, and watching his interviews, I have the sense that his is a quieter, potentially less polarizing but no less devout style of faith.
Lin comes across as soft-spoken and winsome; he comes across as thoughtful. He comes across, actually, as a distinctly Asian-American Christian, or at least like so many that I know.
What I would love to see are some examples of how Tebow is more vocal than Lin about his faith. Is he perhaps interviewed more often? Are the NFL athlete's outward displays of faith (Tebowing!) more visible than what Lin does on the court? Might Tebow's role as quarterback play a factor in why the two athletes come across differently? When I look at Lin's social media outlets, he seems just as vocal as Tebow.
God is good during our ups and our downs! Glad we got the win!! Thanks to @landryfields for lettin me crash on his couch last night lol
Awesome church service to start 2012! My new years resolution: love God more deeply and intimately by dec 31 than I did on jan 1
Psalm 46:10 -- "He says, 'Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.'"
But I am open to Luo's argument that there is something fundamentally different about Lin than Tebow, so let's keep going.
Harvard's Asian American Christian Fellowship, which started in the 1990s, is one of the most active student groups on campus. You will also immediately know it if you are part of a historically orthodox church in a major metropolitan center like New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston or Los Angeles because your pews are probably filled with them. Like Lin, many Asian-American Christians have deep personal faith, but they are also, notably, almost never culture warriors. That is simply not what is emphasized in their churches and college Christian fellowships, including the one that played such a formative role in Lin's life at Harvard.
Luo's suggestion that Asian American Christians are not terribly vocal culture warriors is an interesting distinction if we're keeping up with a Tebow comparison, who has been sometimes portrayed as a culture warrior. Yes, he appeared in a rather mild advertisement from Focus on the Family, but you have to know the back story to know it had anything to do with abortion. I'm not out to defend Tebow in any way, but he doesn't actually really address any culture war issues when you think about it, unless Tebowing became part of the culture wars when I wasn't looking.
Luo admits he kept up with Tebow's season, in part because of their shared faith. "More than anything, though, I found the fierce emotions he incited on both sides of the religious divide depressing," Luo wrote. Lin, on the other hand, has "a brand of faith, shaped by his background, that I can relate to much better than many I have seen in the public arena."
I also read about his personal faith and the way he helped lead a small group for his Christian fellowship, harking back to the way I became a Christian in college, in part through some of these same small groups, in which we often wrestled with difficult questions deep into the night.
I like to think of my approach to faith as nuanced and not fitting easily into anyone's standard boxes. I suspect Lin's has to be as well.
Luo offered some reader response and a bit of background on his twitter feed today:
Got reader email who said he was "puking" from the xianity ref. Another said it made him "doubt" my "harvard credentials."
Backstory on my @jlin7 essay. Sports ed asked if i wud consider doing Tues. I grappled w/ vulnerability, whether i had anything new to say.
I thot abt writing what Lin meant 4 asian-amers broadly but felt that'd been done. What i tried to do was introduce a-a xians specifically.
And more i thought abt it, Lin being asian american xian is a very distinctive thing, something country hadn't seen and was significant.
Sports analysts who look try to tackle the Tebow vs. Lin question will likely consider pure athleticism. While I'm still grappling with the implicit idea of Tebow as culture warrior, Luo's smart analysis of the Asian American Christian community is something few other reporters would think to spot. And perhaps some day we'll get to read more about Luo's nuanced approach to faith.

Once you've gone to the trouble of extracting and purifying nucleic acids from your experimental samples, the last thing you want to do is resuspend them in a buffer that may contain nucleases or introduce nucleases with components of downstream reactions. That's why we offer Ambion® RNA storage buffers and other buffers and reagents that are rigorously tested for nuclease contamination as part of the routine quality control process. These reagents have all been shown to lack detectable nonspecific endonuclease, exonuclease, and RNase activities and meet other product-specific quality requirements.
RNA Storage and Resuspension Buffers
The last step in many nucleic acid isolation protocols, and the first step of many downstream reactions is to resuspend the RNA pellets. After painstakingly isolating RNA, it is crucial to suspend and store your RNA in an appropriate, nuclease-free solution. We offer several Ambion® RNA storage solutions for this purpose. These solutions are prepared from the purest reagents available, under scrupulously monitored conditions in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. They are then subjected to rigorous quality control procedures to help ensure their purity and performance.
Buffers and Chemicals
We offer a selection of Ambion® buffers and reagents that are commonly used in reactions containing RNA and DNA. Use these products in your experiments with confidence, knowing that they have passed rigorous quality checks for contaminating nonspecific endonuclease, exonuclease, and RNase activities.
To meet the special challenges of working with RNA, our Ambion® brand waters are certified nuclease-free. They are Type II 18-megohm filtered (via state-of-the-art reverse osmosis filtration and deionization), followed by autoclaving and sterile filtration. The purification equipment used to produce Ambion® waters is subjected to routine maintenance and testing procedures according to rigid ISO 9001 specifications.

Arsenal's youngsters lose in Greece
Brought to you by
Arsenal's Champions League group campaign ended with defeat to Greek champions Olympiakos.
With the likes of Robin Van Persie, Theo Walcott and Wojciech Szczesny left out, Arsene Wenger opted to field an inexperienced side, with The Gunners already through to the knock-out phase, but with just a quarter of an hour gone the experiment turned into a disaster.
Rafik Djebbour curled home after being played in by Johan Djourou, while substitute goalkeeper Vito Mannone gifted David Fuster the second just before half-time.
Yossi Benayoun's first Champions League goal for Arsenal put the visitors back in the game, but Francois Modesto made it three late on.
Wenger can live in the knowledge that while his young players may not have excelled in the club's final group game, Arsenal had already done the hard graft in the previous five games, qualifying with a game to spare.News Now - Sport News

It has already been established that bluetooth headsets can provide passable audio quality and can be really handy. By default, if you have a bluetooth headset connected to an android phone, it will automatically open the "Voice Dialer" activity. This is handy if all you want to do is call someone, however it could do so much more by simply using the Google Now instead. Google Now has all the functionality of the voice dialer, with about a million additional things.
Until this default behavior is addressed, which I'm sure it will be at some point in the near future, you can get your bluetooth headphones/speaker to play nice with Google Now. Simply try out Bluetooth Launch (free), written by a dev who was obviously after this functionality, but wrote the app in such a way that you could open whatever activity you wanted.
How to set it up
All you need to do is download Bluetooth Launch to your device, open it and assign it to
Google Search > com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.VoiceSearchActivity
and finally connect your bluetooth headset to the device. Hit the button on your bluetooth headset and select "Bluetooth Launch" as the default and you should be good to go. You will also make sure Google Now is using your bluetooth headset as an input, so make sure to check the box in
Google Now > Settings > Voice > Bluetooth headset (checked)
To get rid of it or start over, you can simply uninstall the app or clear the defaults in the Bluetooth Launch app info page in settings.
Due to all of the differing bluetooth device setups, which are notoriously finicky, your phone/bluetooth headset may not be compatible or work right away. I tested and was able to get this to work on my Nexus 5 & LG HBS-700's but not my Nexus 7 with the very same headset. So, as with most things you find around these parts, your mileage may vary.

While that slogan didn't do very much for characters in the movie Wall Street, it is a mantra that Lipscomb Lady Bisons coach Brandon Rosenthal is stressing to his volleyball players when it comes to accumulating points.
"When you look at our side-out percentages we sided out against North Florida at 75, 80 and 85 percent and against Jacksonville it was 75, 85 and 64 percent," said Rosenthal. "That means in the second set we were scoring 85 percent of the time off of Jacksonville's serves.
"We have preached and talked about the momentum of the game. If we get one point, we want to get two or three. We have talked about flat-out getting greedy. When we get a four-point run we don't want to be satisfied. We want to get that fifth point."
The Lady Bisons swept Jacksonville 3-0 in an Atlantic Sun Conference game Saturday afternoon at Allen Arena. It was the third straight win for the Lady Bisons, all 3-0 decisions.
The Lady Bisons are 6-3, 3-0 in the A-Sun. Jacksonville slipped to 3-5, 0-2 in the conference.
They fought off an early challenge by Jacksonville in set one before winning 25-19. They won set two 25-14 and close out the match with a 25-19 decision.
"Set one was one of those set where I was a little displeased with our effort," said Rosenthal. "I called a quick time out. There was no secret we had to do a better job of executing and going about our business.
"I thought Jacksonville did a great job of dictating the first 15 points of the first set. We can't just sit back and let a team dictate the match."
Senior opposite Erin Pierce made a career-high 28 digs in the match. It was the most digs in a three-set match for a Lady Bisons player since former libero Ann Mullins made 29 against Samford Aug. 25, 2007. It is the second highest mark for digs in a three-set match in program history, tying the 28 made by Mullins against Stetson Oct. 5, 2007.
"Defensively, Erin was everywhere," said Rosenthal. "She just came out really focused and did a fantastic job all over the court. She really put away some balls at key times for us."
The inside-outside combination of middle hitter Alex Kelly and outside hitter Meghan Hinemeyer once again paved the way offensively. Kelly, with a .500 hitting percentage, made a match-high 16 kills and Hinemeyer was credited with 15. Kelly also added 10 digs.
Setter Stefine "Jake" Pease directed the Lady Bisons attack with 39 assists. She also had eight digs, three kills and one service ace.
"It comes down to execution," said Rosenthal.
Rosenthal stresses that one of the keys to the Lady Bisons early success is that several talented individuals have been willing to play as a team. He credits team captains Pease, Kelly and Pierce for setting the proper tone.
"Some of it has to do with our pre-conference schedule and some of it has to do with the leadership that we have in place," said Rosenthal. "Our three captains want to win and they want to win badly.
"Our girls played extremely well this past week. Some of it has to do with what they want to do. We are very focused. We are all on the same page."
Aidan Yeager led Jacksonville with 10 kills. Brooke Singleton added 10 digs.
The Lady Bisons are on the road next weekend for a pair of Atlantic Sun matches. They face Stetson Friday (Sept. 18) in DeLand, Fla., and play Florida Gulf Coast Saturday (Sept. 19).

Shia LaBeouf's Still Got It, Storms Out of Press Conference
Churlish performance art major and bar-fighting Shakespearean Antonio Shia LaBeouf has once again dazzled the world with his ability to feel things more deeply than the rest of us. During a press conference for Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac, (inexplicably still not out in theaters yet), a film in which he was forced to act against his wishes, in a career he did not choose of his own volition, the actor answered one question, then walked off the stage. Where? Into a volcano maybe.
What was it like acting in a film with so many sex scenes, he was asked, which is, in fairness, a pretty uninspired, hacky question.
"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea," he answered, before exiting abruptly. "Thank you very much."
No, sir. Thank you in fact. LaBeouf, who is physically incapable of opening his trap without someone else's words coming out, (acting!) was making a reference to an infamously cryptic press conference given by French footballer and former Manchester United player Eric Cantona, who was suspended after a physical altercation with a fan in the 90s. Cantona was himself a sort of pugnacious, two-fisted LaBeoufian archetype philosopher, as prone to sudden violence as a slowly delivered, ponderous pontification. The trawler, you see, is the great man beset upon by seagulls, or the media, starving for tossed-off scraps to gorge ourselves upon.
Actors are dumb.

JERUSALEM, Jan. 1 (UPI) -- U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry went to Israel Wednesday on what officials say is part of the shuttle diplomacy to keep the Mideast peace effort advancing.
Kerry is making a major push to secure what the Obama administration called a "framework" accord seen as critical to a wide-ranging Middle East peace accord and critics branded as a bid for more time, the New York Times reported.
Kerry is expected to make several trips to the region in January and February to secure the framework agreement quickly, U.S. officials said. Kerry has targeted the end of April for completing a comprehensive peace accord.
The framework's goal is to achieve enough of a coming together on core issues that the two sides can push toward a formal peace agreement, State Department officials said. The document wouldn't be signed by Israeli and Palestinian leaders and likely would note reservations each side has, American officials said.
"Once they have a shared vision of what that will look like, then it will become easier to finalize the details," a senior State Department official told the Times.
Among the core issues to be resolved are the borders between Israel and a future Palestinian state, the status of Jerusalem as a possible capital for the new Palestinian state as well as Israel, recognition that Israel be identified as a Jewish state and a Palestinian demand that refugees have the right to return to their former homes, the Times said.
Critics said the move was an effort to buy time and formally establish the negotiating process that could go past the timeline Kerry set during the summer for completing a peace treaty.
"It is clear that Kerry cannot get a comprehensive 'final status agreement' in his nine-month timetable, so now he appears to be looking at a 'framework agreement' instead," said Elliott Abrams, a senior official on President George W. Bush's National Security Council. "I don't think it will work."

| Rhapsody in Drew
First broadcast
English themes
Japanese themes
Rhapsody in Drew (Japanese: 決戦!グランドフェスティバル③!! Decisive Battle! Grand Festival (3)!!) is the 123rd episode of the Advanced Generation series, and the 397th episode of the Pokémon anime. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 7, 2005 and in the United States on February 25, 2006.
|Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
May and Harley face off in the main competition of the Grand Festival! It's Harley's Banette and Cacturne against May's Beautifly and Bulbasaur. May's team gets in the first hits, but Harley makes a comeback and it takes some quick thinking for May to beat Harley and move onto the semifinals.
Elsewhere, Jessie wants to impersonate a coordinator and sneak into the competition. Team Rocket decides to kidnap Robert, but Ash interrupts them as they make their move. Snorunt is hit by Team Rocket's Pokémon and evolves into a Glalie! Jessie thinks it's adorable, James thinks it's creepy, but either way, Glalie easily sends them packing.
Back on the stage, May defeats Anthony's Pinsir and Combusken, but her next opponent will be an even greater challenge: Drew! And Drew has brought a Flygon he trained especially for the competition. Flygon and Roselia are up against Combusken and Skitty. It's a close fight but Roselia hits May's Pokémon with Stun Spore, followed by a Steel Wing from Flygon, and takes the win.
Now it's Drew and Robert in the finals. To May's surprise, Robert earns the victory and wins the Festival. But Drew isn't upset—that night, even though there's a party, he goes right back to training. Impressed by his example, May sets her sights on next year's Grand Festival!
May is facing off against Harley in the second round of the final competition matches. Harley starts the battle off by having Banette use Screech and Cacturne use Bullet Seed which both hit their mark to put a dent in May's points. May has Bulbasaur attack with Vine Whip which Harley's Pokémon try to dodge but Bulbasaur grabs onto their legs. Beautifly follows that up with Silver Wind that also hits its mark to put a big dent in Harley's points. Bulbasaur releases its grip on Cacturne and Banette which sends them both spinning. Beautifly uses Silver Wind that hits its mark and they become very disoriented as they keep spinning all of the way to the ground. All of the judges were very impressed with Bulbasaur and Beautifly's combinations and that they are completely in sync.
After Banette and Cacturne snap out of their disorientation, Bulbasaur tries to use Vine Whip again but Banette counters with Torment so that Bulbasaur can't use the same move twice in a row. Cacturne uses Pin Missile towards Bulbasaur while Beautifly brings it high into the air to dodge the attack. Banette uses Will-O-Wisp which hits its mark. Bulbasaur uses Petal Dance to counterattack and combine with Will-O-Wisp to create sparkling dust all over the field. Cacturne uses Pin Missile towards them, but Bulbasaur and Beautifly come out of the dust and use Silver Wind and Razor Leaf to land a critical hit on the opponents to drop Harley's points to zero. With that win May moves on to the second stage to face Drew. All of the judges felt that May did an incredible job with her Pokémon in that battle.
Harley says to Drew that he's probably happy to see him lose to May but Drew says no and that May was just better than him. Harley says that he will be happy once he sees both of them lose. Meanwhile, Team Rocket was trying to decide which famous person Jessie was going to impersonate next. They decide that Robert will be the one Jessie impersonates next. As Robert walks outside, Meowth shoots a rope with a grabbing arm on it to grab Robert. Ash arrives and has Pikachu use Thunderbolt to free him. Team Rocket recites their motto and begins to attack. Team Rocket brings out Cacnea and Dustox. Snorunt tries to use Ice Beam but it fails while everyone laughs at it. Robert gives Snorunt some encouragement and says for it to focus its energy in its head to be able to aim Ice Beam properly. Cacnea uses Pin Missile and Dustox uses Psybeam towards Pikachu, but Snorunt jumps in front to take the hit and it begins to evolve into Glalie. Ash scans Glalie with the Pokédex. Robert suggests to Ash to test out Glalie's ability to use Ice Beam. Glalie uses Ice Beam to freeze Team Rocket and send them blasting off.
In the second stage, May with Combusken and Bulbasaur faced off against Anthony with Swalot and Pinsir. Combusken tries to use Peck but Pinsir comes out of Swalot's stomach to pinch Combusken's beak shut. Time runs out but May wins the match and moves on to the third stage. Anthony respectfully congratulates May on the win and wishes her luck in the stage. The next match ups are revealed to be that May will face Drew in the third stage.
In the third stage, May's Combusken and Skitty are up against Drew's Roselia and Flygon. Ash scans Flygon with his Pokédex. Roselia begins with a sparkling Petal Dance while Flygon flies right through it to attack. Skitty counters with Assist which comes out as Fire Spin and burns the opponents' combination. Combusken uses Sky Uppercut but misses Flygon as it dodges and Flygon falls and lands on top of Skitty. Ash and his friends comment on how Drew really knows the open field and appears to know how May is going to attack in this match. Flygon uses Flamethrower and Roselia uses SolarBeam towards the opponents while May has Combusken use Fire Spin to push the combined attacks away. Drew loses a lot of points because of that. Combusken uses Fire Spin again while Flygon counters with Sandstorm which blows the attack away. Skitty uses Blizzard as Roselia jumps on top of Flygon to fly away and dodge it. May says that Flygon is really fast and that she has to figure out a way around that somehow with her losing so many points.
Skitty uses Assist which turns into Vine Whip but it misses the opponents. Combusken uses the Vine Whip to jump high into the air. Roselia uses Magical Leaf while Skitty counters with Blizzard. Flygon uses Flamethrower but it was exactly what May wanted to happen. May has Combusken follow the flames towards Flygon and hits with Sky Uppercut. May's friends say to May's mom that she is really a great Coordinator as she is showing in the match. Caroline says she is really proud of how well May is doing in the match. Norman is shown watching the match on TV. May wanted to finish off the battle in one hit with very little time remaining and her having very little points left. Skitty uses Tackle and Combusken uses Quick Attack while Roselia uses Stun Spore that hits and paralyses them. Flygon finishes the match off with Steel Wing. Drew wins the match but May is a very good sport even in defeat. Everyone in the stands cheer for May for doing such a great job in the match and in the grand festival. May's friends also give her compliments on a job well done. May's mom says that she is very proud of her. Harley is very displeased that the crowd was cheering May even though she lost.
As Drew is shown facing off with Robert in the final stage, he is losing by a lot of points. Milotic uses Twister while Claydol comes through the Twister and attacks Masquerain and Roselia with Hyper Beam, before Milotic finished them off with Iron Tail. Drew is a very good sport about the loss. With the win, Robert becomes a Top Coordinator and wins the Ribbon Cup. May and her friends all compliment Drew's hard work even though he lost. May says to Drew that she's sorry he lost, but Drew tells her that there is always someone better.
May sits down after eating a lot, looks behind her and wonders where the flashing lights are coming from. Outside Drew was having Masquerain and Roselia practice Contest moves some more instead of being at the party. Roselia used Magical Leaf but Masquerain was hit and Drew told it that it should be fast enough to dodge that attack. May asks Drew why he isn't at the party and he explains that he is training to get better just like Robert is even though he just won the Grand Festival. Drew explains that if she wants to become a Top Coordinator, she has to keep practicing and getting better. He is working on new moves for the next Grand Festival and says that he expects May at the next one as well. Drew says good-bye and walks away. Ash offers May a vanilla ice cream cone but scares her while doing so. May's mother mentions that the two of them were both alone and that maybe there was some romance going on. May says to her friends that she is planning on not giving up until she becomes a Top Coordinator and her mom tells her that she is very proud. May's mother reminds May that now she has to support Ash as he tries to become the Hoenn League Champion.

Ten point rides are rare and when they happen the crowd out in the beach goes crazy. A perfect 10 is the ultimate surfing goal in competition.
Surfers know than only a well selected wave and complete maneuvers will get the maximum score. Not all waves can deliver ten points in pro surfing.
Perfect 10 wave rides require commitment, difficulty, combination of old and new school moves, innovative and progressive style, major maneuvers, variety, speed, power and flow. With all these variables you may decide to claim the ride.
If there's a ranking for the surfers who've had the most 10-point rides, then Kelly Slater would be on top. One of the best Perfect 10's in the history of surfing was scored in the 2010 Quiksilver Pro France.
Slater was battling a giant, windy and choppy ocean when a right-hander comes. He paddles for it, drops in and, a couple of seconds after he steps down from the first floor inside the huge barrel. The crowd can't believe and goes wild as Slater escapes the monster white water.
The 10-time world surfing champion from Florida has four more unforgettable Perfect 10's. Do you remember the 2010 Billabong Pipe Masters, the Boost Mobile Pro 2008 and the Rip Curl Pro Somewhere in Indonesia?
Well, there's another one. In big wave surfing conditions, between broken surfboards, Kelly Slater slots an incredible 10-point ride at the2009 Hurley US Open of Surfing, a few meters away from the Huntington Beach Pier.
Joel Parkinson won't forget the 2009 Billabong Pro J-Bay. An endless barrel in South Africa's surfing jewel marking his victory in the event. One of the best waves ever ridden, for sure.
You know Josh Kerr. The Australian "kerrazy" airman knows how to impress judges and he simply launched his surfboard rockets twice in the same wave, while surfing at the Drug Aware Pro 2010. Owen Wright, the new school aerialist, lifts off at the 2010 Rip Curl Pro Portugal.
Watch the best Perfect 10 waves of the last years.

II. Walkthrough
1. Path of the King
(1). Paths of the Dead
At the start, walk the only path until you come to some thick blue
mist. When you enter this mist, you can only walk, not run. Keep
going, as there are no enemies yet. After the mist, keep walking,
until a cutscene shows a few specters going into a pile of bones. The
enemies that come out are the easiest kind in the entire game. Just
use speed attack, and your killing move to get rid of them all. Get
the red potion when the bones are gone if you need it.
Keep going, until you get o a short tunnel. Go through it. But
wait! A large stone blocks your path, and specters enter it. Don't
use the pikes. It takes too long to throw them. Now would be a good
time to test your ranged attack.
After the rock shatters, go until you reach more mist. Near the
end of the mist some specters plunge into the ground, and grave stones
appear. You can still attack as usual, so go about your business.
When both of the stones are shattered, keep going out of the mist. Two
archers appear on the bridge above you. Don't take them out! Instead,
go right. Kill the four enemies that block you, and keep going. You
are now on top of the bridge with the archers. Take them out, and keep
going, then bear left at the fork. At the next fork, go right into the
peninsula. Get the shining stone, and kill all the enemies. Go back,
and turn right.
When 4 other enemies appear below you, stand next to the rock
with the purple circle under it, and press Z. It kills the 4 enemies.
When 2 more appear, don't waste arrows on them. It's hard to aim just
right down there. Backtrack to the first fork, and continue on the
path you haven't gone on. 2 shielded enemies appear. Use fierce
attack to break their shields, and then use it again to knock them
down. Then use a killing move. Continue to the 2 enemies that were
left over from pushing the rock over the ledge. Use the same strategy,
and continue through the tunnel. When you come to a large room, 3
enemies appear, 1 of them being shielded. After taking them out,
continue through the room, and then through the tunnel.
When you reach the drawbridge, go to the silver quiver by the
drawbridge weather you need it or not. When you get there, 3 archers
appear on the above ledge. Stand back, and take them out with
When they are gone, use the gate winch to lower the drawbridge. This
takes about three turns of the winch. When the gate is down, go across
quickly. Don't worry about your companions. They automatically get
As you progress through the mist, some enemies appear. After they are
all disposed of, go straight through the tunnel. After all the pillars
fall, get rid of all the enemies as you go, and continue through the
mist. In the next room, get rid of the 2 enemies by the ladder, and
climb. After you are on the ledge, another rock appears. After all
the regular enemies are gone, a single enemy with a bar over his head
appears. We call these enemies champions. The bar is his health.
Bosses sometimes have these bars. He should be no problem for you.
Just keep using speed attack. Champions never fall down.
After progressing through the winding path, you come to a very
large statue, along with 4 enemies. 2 are shielded, 2 are archers.
After that, push the statue with Z. Go across the custom bridge, and
go right. There is a hidden path. On the other side, 2 champions of
the same type you fought before come out. When they are gone, use the
gate winch to open the gate. Don't worry about time. This one stays
open for as long as you want it to. As you go back across the path, a
harmless bunch of enemies attacks you. Fight your way out, and go
through the gate.
Go through another twisting tunnel to see quite a sight for sore
eyes. Woah.. Stop staring, and progress to cross it. In the middle,
2 stones appear, trapping you. You have to kill 35 enemies to
progress. When you are done your little fun fest, the stone blocking
you path shatters, and the end of the bridge is in sight. At the end
is the end of the level.
(2). King of the Dead
Boss: King of the Dead
Hint: There is a silver quiver behind a rock on the south-west side
of the arena, but don't get it unless you need it.
After the cutscene, the King sinks into the ground, and comes up right
in front of you. He attacks with 3 hits when he's green, 4 when
yellow, and 5 when red. Parry his attacks, and hit with as many fierce
attacks as possible. If he sinks into the ground, a killing move while
he's doing this gets some damage in, but not much.
After the first series of your attacks, he sinks into the ground,
and summons 4 unshielded enemies. Defeat them with fully charged
ranged attacks if you can. (Hint: If you are far enough away from him
when he summons enemies, they will not come at you, giving you a
perfect chance to hit them with missiles.) You cannot damage him when
there are other enemies on the field. Keep hitting him and defeating
his enemies until he gets into the yellow range.
When you get him into the yellow range, it will show a cutscene
with the King having a specter come out of him. After that, don't
touch the control stick. When a really weird sounding noise comes up,
and a circular cloud comes out at you, stay where you are. This is
called "The Wind of the Mountain". And, (duh), it will damage you if
you get hit.
When one piece of the rock gets blown off, come away from your
shelter, and hit him with as many fully charged missiles as possible.
If he calls up the wind again, get behind the rock and wait until
another chunk gets blown off. Then, use range attacks again. If he
sinks into the ground, (his meter is probably red), use a killing move
on him, and proceed as before. When the meter goes out, a cutscene
shows, and everything starts to come down.
Hint: This walkthrough will now stop specifying how many enemies are
where, unless they are champions, or it is absolutely crucial.
Hint: KEEP RUNNING!!!!
When everything is coming down, run like heck across the bridge. If
the rocks catch you, you die. When you get through the tunnel, and
come to the statue bridge, go across, but an enemy stone blocks your
path. Nothing will collapse until you have defeated all enemies.
After everyone is gone, get through that tunnel, and up the hill.
This climbing up the hill part might take a couple of tries, because
the path is somewhat hidden by smoke.
Here is a somewhat helpful guide of the path: First, come
straight in towards yourself, and the make a right. Keep on going, up
a small hill, and you should then be able to make another right. B-
Hint: This last right always seems farther up the hill than you would
think, so if you die while trying, experiment, and you'll eventually
get it. Another stone now appears, with some enemies, and 2 champions.
After that is cleared, keep going, until you come to some mist.
This is very important: While walking through the mist, stay on
the right (from your perspective), and no rocks will come down on you.
After the mist, you see your two buddies again, and a tunnel. Walk
through the tunnel, and a huge rock come up. Then, a large group of
enemies comes out, with a couple champions. Hint: Ranged attacks
help with this part. After they are gone, 3 more champions come.
After all these are disposed of, the stone shatters, and it's the end
of the level.
(3). The Southern Gate
Hint: Unless you are an extreme expert, don't attempt to take all of
the enemies out.
If you like lots of enemies, this level is for you. To activate the
enemies, walk straight towards the gate. Oh boy. A cave troll leaps
down from the gate wall, and roars. Immediately go back, then left to
a pike. Throw it at him. This gets him in one shot. After that,
well, fight the heck out of there! There are 2 catapults to your left,
and 1 to your right. Go to the 2 on the left, and fire them in any
When a bridge appears, go to it. The 3rd catapult hits the other
cave troll, but it only does a sliver of damage. Don't bother. After
you go across the rubble bridge and up the ladder, defeat the enemies,
and use your fully charged range attack to take out the troll. Stand
back from the wall in front of you, as the troll can't come around, but
he can hit you with that club if your too close to the wall.
After he's dead, go around the wall, and kill any enemies until a
cutscene shows with an elephant looking thing (I don't know what you
call 'em), and it pulls up right in front of you. You automatically
get swarmed with enemies, so shake some of them off. To defeat the
elephant, destroy it's 3 shields, and one more arrow will blow it up.
Stop staring at the fireworks, and kill all the enemies. There will
still be some coming through a window to your right, so get all them
before you use the winch.
After the gate is fully opened, (a cutscene will show) some
enemies come through. Now, you should use the Z button to tip the
cauldrons of fire onto the enemies that just came through the gate.
These can be used infinite times, so don't worry about over doing it.
When they are either all gone, or just a few left, backtrack down the
ladder over the bridge, and through the gate. This marks the end of
the level.
(4). Palenor Fields
Hint: Ranged attacks are your friend.
The first section of this level is all about killing 60 enemies.
As Bob pointed out, use ranged attacks fully charged up. Use sword
attacks only when you run out of missiles, or when an enemy gets too
In the cutscene before the checkpoint, you saw yourself running
up a hill. At the top of the hill, go right until you see the elephant
firing arrows at you. Go forward, (away from the screen), as much as
you can, and fire arrows, parrying when necessary. From this position
right in front of the elephant, you might be able to explode him
without destroying all 3 shields.
After he is dead, another cutscene will show another elephant on
the opposite side of the field. Go back down the hill you came, and
across the field, then right along the cliff wall until you come to
another hill. Go up it, and run right until you see the elephant. B-
Hint: There are some enemies on this cliff, unlike the other one
earlier, so be on your guard! Kill this big brute, and then
immediately start running left.
Do this until a cutscene shows where a Nazgul (ringwraith) is
tormenting Merry and Eyowin. Let go of all buttons during this
cutscene, because if you don't, the controls will be messed up for a
couple of seconds after. After the cutscene, don't do anything. A
half a second later, a 2 second cutscene shows the Nazgul right above
the two soldiers. After this, keep running left until you can fully
see the ringwraith.
Use ranged attacks to bring it down. It's health meter is in the
upper-right hand corner of the screen. If you don't kill him the first
time follow the following directions. If you do kill him the first
time, you have beaten the level.
Other Directions: Another elephant comes in if you don't kill
the ringwraith the first time. It can either be on your side or on the
other side of the field. After he is dead, the Nazgul appears again.
Get to him (you can damage him from both sides), and shoot at him until
he crashes. You have beaten the level.
(5). The Black Gate
Boss: Sauron's Lieutenant
Hint: Combo attacks are also your friend.
After all the experience you have had, this one should be no
problem for you. As Bob has just said, combos are very effective
against this guy. Note: Ranged attacks do absolutely zilch with this
guy. This is about it for this boss. Speed attacks do a decent amount
if you string them together a lot.
Hint: Don't get intimidated by this cutscene.
As Bob has pointed out, this cutscene is very un-nerving. Don't
worry. They only come up the hill a few at a time.
The object of this level is to kill 6 champions. There are 2
types presented here, both of them are a different kind than you've
faced already if you haven't played any of the other paths yet.
After a while, 3 health meters appear at the top of the screen
indicating the health of your counterparts. If one of them dies, the
level restarts from the checkpoint. To recover their health, stand by
them. A purple aurora will appear. Wait until they are green, then
get back to fighting.
Basically, a good way to hold everybody off is to force them into
a bottleneck. This means getting rid of everybody already inside the
circle, then using missiles to hold them off at the entrance. You can
usually get arrows by taking out archers.
After 3 champions are gone, a cutscene shows masses of the army
grouping to your right and left. Don't worry about the left, as almost
none come in through there. With the right, though, a fat champion
comes through a little after the cutscene, and a mediocre amount come
through after that throughout the entire level until the next
When 6 champions are finished, get ready for the final boss in
the path of the king.
Boss: 3 Ringwraiths
This fight is almost impossible to win without your missiles,
because you still have to protect your friends. Hint: If you are out
of missiles, let the Nazguls kill you, and you will appear at the
beginning of the wraith fight with 30 missiles.
Use fully charged missiles. The wraiths are very slow. The first one
you shoot it with doesn't do much, but the second missile does a lot
more, probably getting it into the red. It takes 1 or 2 more to beat
one. Do this for the other 2, and you have beaten the level.
2. Path of the Wizard
(1). Helm's Deep
Hint: It is almost impossible to die in this level, because it is an
instruction level, so don't worry about your health meter too much.
After the intro cutscene, they throw you right into battle. To
advance through the first section, you must kill 15 enemies (even
though there is no meter). After this is accomplished, you see Gimli
climbing a ladder. Go to this ladder and climb. At the top, wait for
2 seconds until an explosion kills a lot of enemies right in front of
you, and use your ranged attack to take out the archers a little ways
When they are all gone, a cutscene shows a large grappling hook
attaching to the wall. Legolas jumps down it, and you have to follow
suit. At the grappling hook, press Z to slide down. Go to the right,
and fire all 3 large crossbows with Z. After the fireworks, you have
beaten the level.
(2). Road to Isengard
Walk the path, killing enemies as you go. When you have walked a
little bit, a cutscene shows an Ent beating up some enemies. After
that, kill the archer up in the log, and the others that come. Then,
shoot the cart with a missile. This kills some enemies.
Hint: If you don't want to face as many enemies, go under the bridge,
and you'll only face 3 enemies
Both paths take you to a left bend in the road. Go around, and
kill the archers, and any other enemies that oppose you. When you come
to a seemingly dead end with some flaming piles of branches, 4 enemies
come out. Kill them, and then go to the right to find a path.
Hint: Be careful! The ents can hurt you!
At the checkpoint, you see a cutscene with an Ent clashing heads.
After that, go down the hill, to find 4 enemies come at you. After
they are gone, a meter appears, indicating you have to kill 75 enemies.
Hint: The ents kill enemies on their own, and it counts towards your
cause, but it takes a while.
When 75 are disposed of, a cutscene shows an ent knocking a pile
of boulders out of the way. You should then appear somewhat near the
newly-made path. Go through.
After going through the path a little bit, you see a flaming
barrier with archers. After killing the archers, some more archers
appear. Keep killing them until no more come. Keep walking, and
killing enemies until you come to a checkpoint right after seeing
Isengard and the short dramatic music.
Keep walking, and shoot the cart with a ranged attack. Keep
going, and shoot the far away carts to destroy the towers. When all of
them are gone, go across the bridge and take out the 2 enemies, and
after crossing it, head left. Take out the enemies, and get the
shining stone. Go right, and take out all the enemies. Go down the
hill, and take out the off-screen archers. Then, go all the way down
the hill until there is a cutscene with an ent pulling on the supports.
Kill all the enemies, including the champion, and take out the
archers on the ledge above the ent. Hint: Your mission is to protect
the ent, so don't waste your range attacks shooting the dam, as they
wont do anything. Take out any archers and enemies that threaten the
ent or you, and eventually the supports will give, triggering a scene
from the movie. This is the end of the level.
(3). Minis Tirith: Top of the Wall
Hint: Don't worry about enemies too much.
The object of the first part of this level is to knock down all
the ladders, and therefor not filling up the meter in the corner. This
meter indicates how close the wall is to being overrun. Another
important part is the diagram of the wall in the top-center. This
indicates the location of ladders on the wall, represented by red dots.
If you read Bob's helpful advice, you will see that you don't have to
worry about enemies too much. Only kill them if there are no ladders
present on the wall.
After a while, you will see a cutscene with some cave trolls
pushing siege towers towards the wall. To get rid of these, get to the
place you started the level from, (about the center of the level), and
head directly left, until you come to a staircase. On your way, only
knock down ladders on your path.
Don't go out of your way to knock more down. Go up the
staircase, and there is a catapult. Use Z in the circle on the side of
the catapult, and fire. It takes 2 hits to destroy the tower. After
this is accomplished, another siege tower will appear on the far right
side of the level. Go there, but again, don't go out of your way to
knock down ladders. When you can see the next tower, use your ranged
attack until it crumbles. Another appears in the same place as the
first, so hustle.
When you fire the catapult at the 3rd tower for the first time, a
ringwraith comes up. Don't kill it, because it will only give you a
longer trip to the next tower. When it takes away a soldier, don't
worry. It doesn't hurt you in any way. When it is gone, shoot at the
3rd tower for the second time to destroy it.
After that, a cut scene shows a tower docking at the wall. Don't
worry, as this is supposed to happed. Go to the same place as the 2nd
tower was, and destroy the tower. If you did kill the Nazgul, you can
use the grappling hooks to go around the rubble. After the 4th tower
is gone, go to where the 3 soldiers were previously blocking the
staircase down, and go through. Follow the flow of soldiers to end the
(4). Minis Tirith: Courtyard
Hint: Enemies are everything.
As Bob has pointed out, your only mission is to protect the
people from all the enemies. Your objective is to get 200 people into
the tunnel. No real help I can give you except to take out any archers
that are near the gate, stay by the tunnel, and potion locations.
There is a green potion in the barrel to the left of the tunnel
along the wall. There is a red one by the right-hand entrance that all
the people come through, and one in a barrel on the left side of the
entrance gate. One more thing: stay on your guard until the cutscene.
After 150 people are safe, a cutscene shows some cave trolls
entering. These can be killed in one hit with pikes. There is a pike
holder by the statue, and one to the right a little ways of the tunnel.
After this, wait until 200 are safe, and you have beaten the path of
the wizard.
3. Path of the Hobbit
(1). Escape from Osgiliath
The object is to keep Frodo from falling into the hands of the
Nazgul. Go to the left and through the gap. Turn right and kill the
enemies you meet. Go right again and up the stairs. Don't kill
anybody except the archer, just walk forward. After the explosion
occurs, go through the gap. Go up the rubble, and a cutscene shows a
meter appearing in the corner. If you let this fill up, you lose. Go
across until you are under the wooden roof by the stairs. Kill the 2
enemies, and wait for the meter to completely drain.
Go up, and kill all enemies. Go to the left, and down the
ladder, killing as you go. Go down the next ladder right in front of
you, and through the gap. Go to the right, and straight. Go up the
stairs, after killing all the enemies tat rush at you. The meter
doesn't appear here, so don't worry about time. The meter doesn't
appear in this next section, either, so take your time to kill everyone
you see. Go up the rubble to the left of this room, and, if you need
it, get the green potion that is in front and to the right a little of
you. There is an archer guarding it, so be careful. After that, go
through the gap.
Go up the ladder, and the meter reappears. Go straight, and up
the wooden bridge. Kill the 3 archers that come, and keep going
straight. If you need another green potion, there is one in the corner
to the south a little bit. Go down the ladder into the pit. At the
bottom, there is a long staircase. Go up it, but be careful. Enemies
ambush your while you are ascending. At the top, use Z to push the
bell down the stairs. (If you need a red potion, there is one to the
right of the bell). This kills a few enemies, and opens a gap in the
wood. Go through.
Go up the stairs to your right. Take your time destroying
enemies, because there is shelter a little farther on. Turn left, and
go straight, to the wooden roof with a green potion under it. Wait for
the meter to drain, then go out, and to the left is some rubble, which
you should climb. Kill the enemies, and go straight until you're under
the stone roof.
Let the meter drain, first of all. Then, if you have missiles,
take out as many of the enemies in the area to your right as possible.
If not, run like heck across the area to the next stone roof. Under
the next roof, take out the enemies if you want, and climb down the
ladder. At the bottom, climb down the next ladder that is to your
In the sewers, walk a ways, killing enemies as you go, until you
see a fat champion. Take out all the archers with missiles. A fully
charged ranged attack will take off the champion's armor, and some more
will finish him off. Hint: If you want a different approach, use
your elven cloak (L+R) to become invisible, then sneak up behind the
champion. Use R to stab him in the back, and this kills him with one
hit. Kill the other enemies, then use the gate winch. Go through the
tunnel, and you have beaten the level.
(2). Shelob's Lair
Hint: To take out spiders, use a fierce attack, then a killing move.
This level is a maze of corridors. I will guide you through,
with 2 items to get along the way. First off, go right at every chance
you get, until you come to a shining stone get it, and kill the 3
spiders that drop down.
Go right every time again, and you come to a green potion. Get
it, and go to your left, and at the fork, go left again. You see the
exit to the maze marked by 2 torches. Use one of them to get rid of
the spiders that block your path, and continue.
Use the next available torch to take out one of the spiders that
ambush you, and then take out the other 2 with Bob's advice. Wait for
the torch to regenerate, then use it to burn up the spider web. Go
through, and you see a camp of enemies. Use your elven cloak, and turn
right. Use the torch to burn the corpse that overhangs the camp. This
disposes some of them. Be careful. Some spiders come up behind you
when you grab the torch. Take out the rest of the enemies. Go through
the next passage.
Use the torch to take out one of the 2 enemies that come at you,
and dispose of the other. Keep going, and use the next torch to burn
the overhanging corpse onto the enemies, and take out any that remain.
Keep going down the tunnel, until the camera angle changes. Come
towards you. Kill all enemies in your path, then go up the hill that
is to your right. 2 enemies ambush you, so get rid of 'em. Keep
going, and push the boulders. The game thinks the enemies you just
killed are still there, so double experience points for you. Go back
down, and through the tunnel, disposing of the 3 spiders that come at
A cutscene shows Shelob walking under the bridge your on. Don't
worry. You'll get a swing at her later. Take out all enemies, and
continue through. Go until you see a wide strip of spiders. Use both
torches to get rid of all of them, and go through again. Next,
you'll see a group of spiders and a web at the far end of the room.
Burn up the web, then walk around the far left of the room to get past
the spiders, and through the web. Keep progressing, and kill 2 enemies
that ambush you.
When you come to a hill, and 3 strips of spiders, go up the hill,
using the torch to get rid of the mass of spiders that blocks your way
up there. Kill the 4 spiders that come down, and use the torch that is
a little farther up to burn the web. Go back down using the bottom
torch to shoo the bunch of spiders that blocks your way.
Then, use the first torch you used again to get rid of the first
strip out of 3 that blocks you. Use your ranged attack rapidly to get
rid of the archers that pop out at the end. Go through the 2nd and 3rd
strip of spiders, and go through the tunnel until you see a cutscene.
Boss: Shelob
Probably the most annoying boss in the game, Shelob is a spider
(duh). First, she doesn't notice you until you get to close, or
attack. Might as well use that one fully charged ranged attack.
Basically, parry her 2 or 3 attacks, then use fierce attacks or combos
until you see yourself stabbing her in the head. She then climbs up on
the wall. (She should be yellow already). Stand at the opposite end
of the arena from her, as she will jump on you if you get too close.
Kill all her little servants, and get outta her way! Keep doing this
until you cut off her leg.
When you cut it off, she goes nuts. Stay away from her as much
as possible, as it does damage if you get run over. After you evade
her for a little bit, it's the same as before. Keep slashing until you
get her right in the stomach. You have now beaten the level.
(3). Cirith Ungol
B Hint: 80 enemies is your goal... stick to it!
You start in a large room with 1 champion and some others. Kill
'em all, and you are on your way to 80. Activate the drawbridge with
the switch next to it, then go up. Getting rid of all enemies along
the way, proceed along the path, and listen for someone to say
"intruder!". A few more pop out of the tunnel, and when you enter the
tunnel, a champion is waiting. The way is pretty self-explanitory from
here, so press on.
B Hint: There are a lot of shortcuts along the way that lead to rooms
full of enemies to aid you in filling up your meter.
Go until you can see a drawbridge. Go up it, and proceed until
you see a cutscene with everyone running away from you.
Go up the wood bridge you appear on and defeat the champion.
Launch the large crossbow, and then proceed to cross the stone bridge.
Once you start to cross, the bridge starts to crumble, so run like heck
to the other side.
Boss: Orc General
This guy is fast, so be aware of his presence throughout the
fight. To knock the sword and shield out of his hands, throw pikes at
him. There are 2 sources of infinite pikes on the west and east sides
of the arena.
When he is stunned, attack him as much as you can. Do this until
you have defeated him. You have beaten the level.
(4). Crack of Doom
The object is to knock Golem off the cliff. He is fast, and
attacks don't harm him. The only way to beat him is to knock him off.
My only suggestion is to get near the edge, then get out of the way
when he comes at you. When he is at the edge, physical attack him a
lot until it appears he is losing his balance. Use a physical attack,
and when he is hanging on with his hands, use a killing move. This
deals some damage.
Do this about 5 times to beat him. Each time you knock him off,
some rocks and/or lava pours down on the arena. Stay to the edge to
avoid it. Also, as you get him weaker, a part of the peninsula will
fall off each time. This shouldn't make it more difficult for you,
4. Bonus Levels
(1). Palantir of Saruman
You must defeat 20 waves of Saruman's army.
Tips: You now have access to codes. Use them for this level!
(2). Palantir of Sauron
The same as before, except harder. To unlock this, you must get
Sam, Gandalf, and anyone from Path of the King to level 10.

CINCINNATI: Ohio drivers on Thursday picked their way around slick spots left by a winter storm that brought double-digit snowfall to some areas and was blamed for one death.
Jessica Galley, of Mason, was killed Wednesday afternoon when she lost control of her car on southbound Interstate 71 near Cincinnati, drove across the median and crashed into a northbound Ohio Department of Transportation snow plow, the Hamilton County sheriff�s office said. The snow plow driver wasn�t injured.
Southbound I-75 just north of Cincinnati was closed more than 12 hours after a tractor-trailer crashed Wednesday night in a construction area. Thursday morning traffic was diverted east via connectors to I-71 until I-75 was cleared. There were temporary lane closures on other interstates during Wednesday�s storm, but traffic on most major highways was running smoothly across the state Thursday morning.
�We obviously have had multiple crashes around the state (Wednesday),� said Ohio State Highway Patrol Lt. Anne Ralston. �There were crashes that resulted in temporary road closures throughout the state. Things have improved today.�
Department of Transportation snow plow crews were still working on roads where blowing and drifting snow accumulated, and also clearing Wednesday�s piles from shoulders and medians.
The biggest problems Thursday were slushy buildups and wind-whipped snow covering side roads. In Darke County, in western Ohio, the snow emergency level was lowered Thursday from the highest level 3, but authorities urged drivers to use caution. The sheriff�s office had approved emergency traffic only during the storm after numerous cars slid off roads and got stuck in drifts.
Some of the state�s heaviest snowfalls were in western counties and in the northeast near Lake Erie that got 8 to 10 inches.
In Bellefontaine, which reported a foot of snow in some areas, Pat Leslie was enjoying being retired after helping run a truck stop for years, saying: �I stayed inside and looked out the window at the snow.�
There were also scores of grounded flights Wednesday in Ohio airports, and airport sites showed scattered cancellations and delays continued Thursday. The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in Hebron, Ky., had a handful of Thursday morning cancellations and delays, but spokeswoman Molly Flanagan said operations were returning to normal.
The storm system was linked to 12 deaths, tornadoes in the Gulf Coast region, a record snowfall in Arkansas and disruptions in holiday week travel was pushing through the Northeast U.S. on Thursday.
Forecasters expected many Ohioans to see some more, but lighter, snowfall in scattered showers this weekend.

Smither recently issued an album of previously unreleased live material called Lost & Found, available exclusively for fans through his website.

Happy Birthday
(continued from Ray Rambo)
I can promise you this much, time heals all wounds! It doesn't make the scars go away and that's good because it helps us to remember all the time God has been faithful and given time your wounds will heal too. But in the meantime, just trust in God and His love for you - He loved you so much, He sent His only Son, Jesus to die on the cross to provide a way back to Him. I know that one day, I will see my mother again and I know that if she had the chance to come back, she wouldn't want too for anything! I take pleasure knowing that one day I will be with her again - in Heaven. A place where there are no more tears, no sin, no death. I also know my children will be there with me also. I really believe God has allowed this divorce to be able to truly touch my wife's life in a special way. She has always known Jesus with her head, but not with her heart. I know it sounds stupid but I would rather have a sister in Heaven, than a wife in hell. If I have to lose her to accomplish this, so be it - but it's not easy. But I do know he will be with me all the way through. He doesn't call us to be perfect, just faithful! I rather trust Jesus, who I know loves me, He proved it on the cross, than just wander around lost....
Take care and God bless!
(Continued from Ray Rambo)
I also found peace by spending time with my children, telling them stories about their Grandmother and remembering all the good times we had shared. Grieving is a necessary part of the healing and having a good cry really helped. Usually this happened when I would go for a walk or spend time by myself. I just know that God is our Father and creator, He knows exactly how much we can stand and He promises not to put more on us than we can stand. Quite often I wondered if He got me mixed up with someone a whole lot stronger - just kidding but it felt like it. Finally I realized, no He was right - I could stand it, with His help and I became a better person for having understood that fact and that He was using this to help me grow in my faith. If I didn't have my faith to hold on to, I really don't know that I could have made it. I'm still struggling right now with the divorce with my wife and really her family. Her mom I believe is the one who's really pushing for the divorce. I spoke with my inlaws yesterday and my mother in law is almost possessed about the whole thing. She seems to have made it like a vendetta for some strange reason. But right after talking with them, I saw my wife at the store and she was doing fine. We talked a little but I think she's been told we do this, but it had better go thru this time! Maybe I wrong but I know how she controls my wife and always has. I'm sorry for carrying on about my problems but talking, or typing really helps you be able to think everything out. I've written the whole story out 3 or 4 times and each time I think of something I had left out. Each time after I do it, I seem to get some relief and it has really helped me process all that has happened.
Dear Danielle:
It's not easy, especially in the beginning but you just have to take it one day at a time. I found the most peace when I read my Bible and would read God's promises to His people. He always came through for the nation of Israel when they were faithful to Him. And as a Christian, I am grafted into His family and the nation of Israel. The promises He made them are as true for me - the promises to never leave me, nor forsake me. He doesn't promise anyone tomorrow, but only today and He provides the grace and mercy to make it one day at a time.
(Continued on next entry.)
You're welcome over on the Porch anytime.....I'm usually there...just give me a shout out in the Chatbox!! And be sure to go to the sitemap on page 2 and check out the Memorial Garden....if you'll email me a jpg pic of Gramma, I'd be honored to add her to our family!
Holler if you need me!!
Love Dusty

Google expands emergency alerts to millions of people
Alerts from police, fire and emergency management agencies will appear on Google maps and search pages beginning Friday as part of a growing Google public alert system.
Google has partnered with Nixle, a company that contracts with public safety agencies to send alerts via cellphones and social media. Police and sheriff's departments in Chicago, Dallas and Los Angeles are among agencies using the service.
The alerts will appear when someone uses Google in an area with an active alert or searches for a place that has an active alert.
There are 6,500 police agencies that use Nixle. Those agencies serve more than 150 million people, but of that potential audience, only 2 million people subscribe to alerts, Nixle CEO Eric Liu says.
"It's not on a person's mind until you're in a crisis situation," Liu says. Working with Google, he says, will "change the equation."
Google says it has 100 billion searches per month.
"That's just a mind-boggling number," Liu says. "It will empower local police to access that base in the interest of public safety."
Access to Google's vast audience will help police send warnings, traffic reports, school lockdowns, missing children bulletins and other public safety alerts to more people, says Capt. Mike Parker, spokesman for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
LASD signed up for the free Nixle service — there's also a paid premium version — three years ago, Parker says. Although the department posts information on its website, Twitter and Facebook, not all residents use social media or have smartphones, he says.
About 30,000 people in a county of more than 10 million now subscribe to the department's Nixle alert system, he says.
The link to Google "is going to have a huge impact," Parker says. "We're going to get more information to more people sooner."
The new partnership expands Google's year-old alert system, which began Jan. 25, 2012, with warnings issued by the National Weather Service, the U.S. Geological Survey and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration appearing on Google Maps, Google communications manager Kate Parker says. Google has since added the Japan Meteorological Agency and AMBER alerts for missing children. Nixle adds "hyper-local" police information, she says.
During Hurricane Sandy, which struck the East Coast in October, Google posted public alerts including evacuation routes, lists of shelters and other emergency information, Parker says.
"Increasingly," Parker says, "people are turning to the Internet when a disaster happens."
