Arias details having sex multiple times before killing but stops short when court recesses. KPNX-TV, Phoenix
The salacious murder trial is capturing tabloid headlines worldwide.
PHOENIX — Viewers of the murder trial of Jodi Arias are expected to hear Wednesday about how she killed her secret lover after they were left in a cliffhanger the day before.
Arias, 32, is charged with the June 2008 murder of Travis Alexander, 30, who was found in the shower of his Mesa, Ariz., home with 27 stab wounds, a slit throat and a bullet in his head.
STORY: Jury hears phone call about trysts
STORY: Steamy trial is digital-age fodder
Arias has been on the witness stand in Maricopa County Superior Court since Feb. 4, as her lead attorney, Kirk Nurmi, has led her through the text messages, emails, photographs and even a recorded phone-sex call gathered into evidence to document the long lust-hate relationship she had with the man she killed.
On Tuesday, Nurmi stopped just as Arias described how she and Alexander had gone upstairs to his bathroom so Arias could take photographs of his newly toned body. Minutes later, as documented in the photos recovered from his camera, he was dead or dying on the bathroom floor.
But exactly how and why Arias killed Alexander is the testimony Arias-trial watchers have been waiting for. Barring unforeseen circumstances, that story should unfold Wednesday.
And whether the jury believes her testimony could mean the difference in whether Arias is sentenced to life or death, is convicted of the lesser crime of second-degree murder or, in an unlikely long shot, is acquitted. Arias has claimed she killed in self-defense.
Tuesday, Nurmi tediously went through emails between the troubled lovers, usually over the objections of prosecutor Juan Martinez.
Nurmi was laying out the cycle: Alexander would be angry and insulting in messages then tell Arias she was beautiful and he loved her. In the past two weeks of testimony, Arias has recounted incidents in which she said Alexander became violent or angry in person.
When asked repeatedly why she continued to communicate with Alexander, Arias said that she liked it when Alexander was affectionate and she shook with fear when he was angry.
VIDEO: Live coverage of the Jodi Arias trial throughout the day
Nurmi also tried to punch holes in some of Martinez's theories.
He displayed a photograph to show Arias had dyed her hair months before the murder, not as a disguise afterward.
He had Arias explain she rented a car a distance from her home not to conceal her movements but because her own car needed work and the rental agency offered cars only in certain towns. She chose one where her brother lived.
She denied stealing a gun from her grandparents' home and said she had no gun or knife in her possession when she set out on a road trip around California and then headed for Nevada and Utah.
And she said she had not originally intended to go to Mesa to see Alexander. Rather, she said, he persuaded her over the course of several phone calls to make a detour from Pasadena, Calif., to Mesa on her way to Salt Lake City.
When Arias arrived at Alexander's home after 4 a.m. on June 4, 2008, she said, the two slept until after noon, and then had sex for several hours.
Alexander tied her to his bed, Arias said.
As Arias was about to leave for Salt Lake City, Alexander became enraged when two CDs of photographs she gave him were too damaged to open on his computer. In his anger, she said he bent her over a desk in his office and had sex with her again.
"It was better than him getting mad," she said.
Then, they went upstairs to the bathroom to take photographs of Alexander in the shower.

|In response to Re: new toilet designs -ugh!
: : After reading the report on low-flow toilets, thought I'd add my 2 cents. The new toilet designs must be designed by men who never had to clean a bathroom! I recently shopped for a new toilet and could find only one that did not have the serpentine shape of the traps under the toilet bowl. It's bad enough to clean a toilet that has a straight, smooth surface under the bowl and tank, but one that looks like a snake and has all sorts of dirt-catching crevices?
: : I settled for the cheapest one carried by Home Depot -- the Lamosa. It is a water-saver (and hallelujah it turned out to flush great) and it has a smooth, straight, cleaning-friendly shape!
: : Toilet designers: take on the job of cleaning your bathrooms and suffer like those of us who have to clean our own bathrooms! Then maybe you'll design something right!

They are know as Cheese Boys.
Your adventure start in the year 12 of the Cheese Boys Era, exactly 12 year after the Cheese War. Those powerful beings wins this conflict again the world's countries army, thanks to the Disease that they spread over men. This magic illness slowly transforms the greater part of humans in a kind of mindless barbarian warriors under the Cheese Boys control.
But there is one, lonely, population on the entire planet that seems immune to the Disease, and live free in a region where the Cheese Boys minions can't enter.

DSHA's Ogunbowale too much for Falls' girls in critical GMC showdown
Indians now two games back in league race
Menomonee Falls - DSHA sophomore All-State guard Arike Ogunbowale can score - everyone knows that - and opposing teams try to defend against her array of shots any way they can.
But how do you defend against something as dazzling as what she did at the 3:52 mark of the third quarter against host Menomonee Falls Friday with the Dashers nursing a six-point lead over the short-handed Indians?
It turns out few could.
Because Ogunbowale at that point simply crossed midcourt and whipped a precise over-the-shoulder pass to teammate Shaylan Reardon under the basket for an easily converted layup and an eight-point lead.
It was impossible plays like that that allowed the 7-1 Dashers to keep Falls at arm's-length throughout the second half of an important, 54-40, Greater Metro Conference basketball victory.
"We'd obviously like to see her pass rather than shoot," Falls coach Craig Amundson said, "but she is very versatile." Ogunbowale also had 11 rebounds, eight assists, and six steals on the night.
Even her coach, Scott Witt, is amazed sometimes.
"It's hard to describe unless she's on your team," Witt said. "You're on offense, wondering what play to call and then the next thing you know, she's scored a basket.
"And that's only part of it. She creates more shots than she scores. She's so unselfish with the ball. You don't have to tell her to make the pass, she simply does it."
And because of that, the Dashers remained in a de-facto tie for the lead in the GMC (2-0) with Sussex Hamilton while the Indians, who were without starting point guard Amber Bullock, who was out with concussion symptoms, fell to 1-2 in league play and 3-3 overall.
Falls had beaten DSHA twice last season.
Shots weren't dropping
Amundson, who went with a rotation of senior Haley Precia and junior Anna Smalley at point guard, was pleased with the intensity of the effort, the tenaciousness the team showed on the boards and its simple refusal to go away, but noted that the Indians just couldn't hit enough shots (15 of 50 on the night)
"We played hard, we rebounded well but we just couldn't get over the hump," he said.
Falls had the lead five times in the first quarter, the last time at 11-9 on a hoop by Precia at the 1:20 mark, but the Dashers then got a driving layup from Ogunbowale with four seconds left to go up, 13-11.
"We seemed to win every quarter by just a little bit and that seemed to be enough," Witt said.
Falls last tied the score at 15 on a shot from the wing by Erin Otzelberger at the 5:04 mark of the second quarter, but then Ogunbowale, who had collegiate visitors from Michigan, Marquette and Notre Dame in attendance this night, simply took over.
She slipped off a screen and hit a perfectly designed 3-pointer from the wing at the 4:48 mark and then after a Falls' miss, she drove hard to the basket, cashed the layup, was fouled and converted the three-point play at the four-minute mark for a 21-15 advantage.
Falls got to within three on a layup by Mikayla Robertson at the 2:41 mark of the second, but those would be the Indians' last points of the quarter, as Ogunbowale hit three free throws down the stretch for a 25-19 lead at the break.
She would score 11 of the team's 12 points in the second session.
The Indians' chances took a major hit in the first minute of the third quarter when Precia picked up both her third and fourth fouls within 22 seconds of each other.
Smalley battled gamely at the point the rest of the third ("She was a warrior tonight," Amundson said), but sometimes was just a little overmatched.
The Indians got the lead down to 33-29 at the 2:11 mark on a post shot by senior center Erin Crownover, who led Falls with 19 points.
It was still only a margin of five going into the last minute of the third, but then Ogunbowale hit two free throws, and off an inbounds play, senior guard Maggie Novak hit a baseline dagger of a 3-pointer at the buzzer to make it 43-33.
The Indians never got within eight after that.
"This was a big monkey off our backs," Witt said. "They got us twice last year and even though they outmuscled us a bit on the boards tonight, we competed well and got an important win."
Climbing back up
Amundson, whose team began the season with high expectations, knows that his squad now has a high mountain to climb if it wants to get back into the GMC race. The Indians played border rival Germantown Saturday night (see separate story) in a nonconference game and then got back into the league fray on Tuesday, when they take on unbeaten defending GMC champ Sussex Hamilton.
"We knew this game would be difficult without Amber but I thought it was one of our better all-around efforts," he said. "Staying in the league race is going to be difficult, too. It's literally come down to that old cliché for us: One game at a time."

Rochester drivers spend less time stuck in traffic than most of their counterparts across the country, a new report from TomTom shows.
Rochester ranks 41st among 50 cities nationwide on the annual TomTom Traffic Index, released this week by TomTom NV, a global company known primarily for its navigation and mapping products. Rochester's average congestion level was 13 percent, with a 14-minute delay per hour driven during a peak period, the report states.
TomTom compared travel times during non-congested hours with travel times in peak hours in 186 cities globally, including 50 in the United States. The study analyzed the increased traffic patterns on non-highway secondary roads in the United States, noting common traffic shortcuts drivers take to avoid congestion actually add 50 percent more travel time to trips.
The report notes Rochester's most congested day in 2013 was Feb. 8 and the worst weekly commute during peak periods were Thursday mornings and Wednesday evenings. The report also notes drivers in Rochester with 30-minute commutes spend more than a week stuck in traffic per year.
Los Angeles ranked as the most congested city in the U.S., ahead of San Francisco and Honolulu, while Kansas City and Indianapolis were the least congested cities featured in the study. Moscow was the most congested city in the world—at 74 percent compared with 36 percent Los Angeles.

Exercise in Your Own Home Gym
Turn a spot in your house into a fun fitness area that meets your needs.
Let's face it, joining a health club isn't for everyone. The dues can be pricey, and the clientele can be as intimidating as the equipment.
But don't give up on fitness clubs yet! Instead, why not create a personal gym under your own roof, one that's ideal for serving your purposes? Not only is a home gym convenient, but it makes exercising easy, effective and enjoyable.
"Over the years I'd bought several fitness machines, including a stair stepper and a treadmill, with the best intentions of working out regularly," says Eric Miller of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.
"Unfortunately, the equipment remained mostly unused. I gained weight, and my cholesterol level and blood pressure started to go up.
"Knowing I needed to get back in shape, I created a space where I would enjoy working out. After turning a portion of my basement into a fitness area, I actually looked forward to exercising.
"I'm happy to say that for nearly 2 years now, I've been working out regularly in my home gym," reports Eric. "I've lost 40 pounds and lowered my blood pressure and cholesterol. I have a lot more energy and I feel great."
Creating a Fitness Area
Start off by finding the right spot. Basements tend to be popular for home gyms because they're removed from common living quarters. However, you can turn a corner of any room into an ideal fitness space—often by simply rearranging some furniture.
Consider areas with lots of light. Eric painted his basement walls white and installed additional lights so his gym wasn't dreary.
Make sure the area is large enough to accommodate any regular exercises you might do (such as jumping jacks and push-ups)…and any fitness equipment you own. But keep in mind that while stationary bikes are terrific additions to personal fitness areas, comfortable shoes and a little exercise know-how are enough for a good workout.
Add a mat or a piece of scrap carpeting to your gym to make stretching more comfortable. If you own a full-length mirror, move that into the area so you can check your posture while using the treadmill or jogging in place.
Keep a notebook handy to record your progress, and decorate the spot with inspirational quotes. Once your doctor approves your workout plan, you can put your home gym to use.
If you're considering purchasing a fitness machine for your gym, research which type best fits your needs.
"My favorite is the treadmill," Eric says. "It's ideal for beginners because it's easy to use and can be adapted as workouts advance.
"Similarly, a stair stepper is a good basic piece that offers a thorough cardiovascular workout," he adds.
If you know what type of equipment you're interested in, try it out at the store, then wait a few days to see how your body reacts. Did it cause back pain? Was it hard on your knees? If so, ask your doctor what exercises you might do instead. If you think the equipment is right for you, ask about the store's return policy before making a purchase.
"And if you're torn between which machine you need, get a trial membership at a health club," Eric suggests. "Try the equipment and see which piece you like best."

He worked for GTE from 1949 to 1982, starting as a lineman and retiring as a supervisor. He worked in Anna, Sandwich, Carmi, Harrisburg and Carbondale. After he retired from GTE, he worked at SIU as a telephone installation inspector.
He found great joy in working in his beautiful garden and yard. He also loved to fish, spending several weeks at a time at Lake Barkley fishing and camping with his wife Mildred.
Tom accepted Christ on August 2, 2002. He was baptized on Nov. 17, 2002, exactly 10 years before he went home to be with his Lord. He was a faithful member of First Baptist Church of Alto Pass. He was a past Sunday school superintendent, served on baptismal and pulpit committees, and was honored to serve as deacon. He truly loved Christ, his church and his church family.

The Brookfield Central boys cross country team performed well, but sickness and injuries kept the Lancers from reaching some of their goals.
"This team competed like I expected they would," Central coach Ronn Blaha said. "Only a late season sickness to two of our varsity runners kept us from reaching our goal of repeating as conference champ and returning to state.
"They were a relatively inexperienced group coming into the season. Aside from (Carl) Hirsch and (Kevin) Rindfleisch, no one had more than a season of varsity experience. Still, they ran consistently well and were very competitive in all of the meets.
"With a little better health, we're right in the mix of that extremely competitive conference, and we were close to taking that second spot to qualify for state."
Team nabs fourth in GMC
The Lancers finished fourth in the Greater Metro Conference behind Brookfield East, Marquette and West Allis Hale.
Blaha had three four-year seniors on the team in Hirsch, Zack Heilman and Thomas Markey.
"Carl had success early, but always sought ways to be better," Blaha said. "He had an incredible work ethic that caused him to be successful and to be the best distance runner in the history of Central."
He was All-State, All-Conference and a member of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel All-Area, all first-team selections.
He set the Highlander Invite and Tendick Park course record of 15 minutes, 45 seconds; set the Muskego Lake Denoon course record at sectionals (15:35); set the Muskego Invite record (15:42); set the Menomonee Falls Rotary Park course and meet record (15:22.8) and the Angel Invite meet record (15:22.1), which is also a school record. He also finished second at the prestigious Griak Invite.
"Carl had such an incredible season and incredible career," Blaha said. "He deserves all of the success that he has had. It is a shame that he had an off race at state, but he had so many memorable races that that one will be erased."
Heilman overcame injuries early in his high school career.
"He was determined to come back from that injury a stronger runner, which he did," Blaha said. "He really worked hard in the off-season to make some great gains this year."
Markey had some lofty expectations and he put in the work during the off-season and was motivated to get on varsity.
"He had such a good season," Blaha said. "It was great to see all that work pay off and have him reach his goals. He was such a steady runner throughout his four years."
Robert Billings, John Scanlon, Andrew Dusing and David Ohlsson were first-year runners in their senior year.
Three other conference selections
Central had three other All-Conference selections in Pearson, Trasser and Rindfleisch, who earned third-team honors.
Central also had three captains, Keegan Favill, Heilman and Hirsch.
"They really did a nice job in that role," Blaha said. "All three led by example, setting the tone for the rest of the team not only for this season but in the future as well."
The Lancers had 11 letter winners, led by seniors Hirsch, Markey, Heilman, Favill, Dusing, Russ Vandenberg and John Tzortzos.
Juniors Pearson and Rindfleisch, sophomore Tsang and freshman Trasser round out the list.
"Since we were young and had some talent pop up from some underclassmen, we are set up very well for next season," Blaha said. "I think we have the pieces in place to be near the top of the state next season."

Madam Chairwoman and Members of this committee, on behalf of the more than 2 million members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States (VFW) and our Auxiliaries, the VFW would like to thank this committee for the opportunity to present its views on the following bills:
H.R. 1460, to provide for automatic enrollment of veterans returning from combat zones into the VA medical system:
The VFW supports the concept of H.R. 1460, legislation that would automatically enroll service members who have deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan for health services in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). For years now, our nation has provided 5 years of no-cost health care for separating service members through VA, but they must first go through the enrollment process. This generous provision has been critically important to many veterans, and the enrollment numbers are high. However, for a variety of reasons, many veterans have not enrolled for VA care. We believe that this automatic enrollment could positively affect those individuals, and tip the scale in favor of them receiving the VA health care they have earned.
H.R. 1460 will take the assistance we provide one step further by having VA initiate enrollment into the system on behalf of the combat veterans of our current conflicts, and taking the cumbersome work of enrolling off their shoulders while preserving their choice through a process to opt-out. Returning warriors have serious and pressing concerns they must address without delay when they return from combat – employment endeavors, rekindling relationships with family and friends, and coping with the emotional burden of their war experiences. The least we can do is remove burdens to begin receiving care from the VA so they can more quickly begin to address those important needs.
However, the VFW is concerned that it would create a paradigm in which the injuries and illnesses veterans who do not deploy incur are not given similar priority as those who deploy but do not experience any adverse health effects immediately attributable to their military service. While it does not incentivize current conflict veterans who have deployed to hostile regions to avail themselves to VA care, it could prove to be polarizing, and send the message to non-deployed veterans that they do not qualify for VA health care.
The VFW would support this legislation if it were amended to include enrolling all separating service members into VHA. This would allow service members who were injured or became ill during service, but who did not deploy, the same accessibility as those who have deployed. Also, Congress would need to ensure VA has the resources to properly facilitate enrollment.
H.R. 3016, to direct the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to jointly operate the Federal Recovery Coordination Program:
The VFW supports H.R. 3016. In our view, the most important aspect of this legislation is the length it goes to keep the Federal Recovery Coordination program (FRC) a top priority of the Secretaries of Defense and Veterans' Affairs. By mandating the administration of this program must stay in the respective offices of each secretary, we can have more peace of mind that the wounded, ill and injured warriors the program was created to serve will receive the high-level attention they deserve. Administration of the FRC program has been shuffled around more than once since it was created in 2007, and we believe this legislation will end that by mandating in law that it be housed where it belongs – at the very top. This committee must also conduct continued oversight over this program as practicable to ensure that the letter and spirit of this law – and the critical importance of the FRC program – are embraced within DOD and VA. The men and women who go to war and come back with life-threatening injuries deserve no less, and we give our full support to this legislation.
H.R. 3245, the Efficient Service for Veterans Act:
The VFW supports H.R. 3245. This legislation requires collaboration between the DOD and VA to ensure that VA's Vet Centers have access to the two data repositories that house a service member's DD-214. Granting Vet Centers access to these databases means that they can independently verify a veteran's eligibility for services without the veteran needing to provide a paper copy of the DD-214. This instant access to service records will remove an unnecessary and often time-consuming hurdle to care for veterans needing peer support or mental health counseling from other veterans. At a time when so many of our veterans are in need of these kinds of counseling options, we should make this change without delay and continue to look for ways we can expedite and streamline services.
H.R. 3279, to amend title 38, United States Code, to clarify that caregivers for veterans with serious illnesses are eligible for assistance and support services provided by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs:
The VFW strongly supports H.R. 3279. The Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010, commonly known as the Caregiver Bill or P.L. 111-163, provided long-overdue financial and medical support for family members or other designated individuals who are willing to be trained to provide high-quality in-home health care for severely injured veterans of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Department of Defense provides similar support to family members of members of the armed forces who are catastrophically disabled, and includes disability caused by illnesses in their eligibility requirements. Because the law does not currently provide VA caregiver support to those who are seriously disabled because of an illness, the potential exists for military members and their families to lose a critical benefit as they transition out of the military into VA care.
The caregiver benefit must be seamless. It is simply too important for the physical health and general well-being of the men and women who are catastrophically disabled in service to preclude those who have suffered from a debilitating illness from receiving this benefit.
H.R. 3337, the Open Burn Pit Registry Act of 2011:
The VFW supports H.R. 3337. Open-air burn pits were used extensively in Iraq and Afghanistan to incinerate everything from medical supplies to automobiles, with possible hidden and grave health reactions on the military personnel exposed to them. VA, DOD, and other partners in the civilian sector are working to give us the tools necessary to properly diagnose and treat the conditions associated with open-air burn pits and other environmental exposures. However, much work remains to be done, and any delay means less than optimal treatment options now.
Both DOD and VA have areas where they could improve their support to those suffering from an environmental exposure. In addition to working to treat these conditions, the Veteran Benefits Administration must continue to improve their ability to account for their effects when evaluating claims, and DOD could make a greater effort. Unfortunately, their lack of responsiveness to repeated requests for information from Congressman Akin in relation to this bill has made it difficult to ascertain what, if any, measures they have taken. We lament DOD's unwillingness to provide the requested information, and hope they will soon respond to that request. We would also very much like to see DOD reach out to veterans and military service organizations to forge a more productive working relationship on this important issue.
The VFW believes that this registry is essential to allow service members the peace of mind of going on record with VA at the earliest possible time to say they were exposed, and to assist VA in knowing how to best deploy advances in medicine and technology as they become available to treat the serious conditions associated with burn pit exposure. We know that the physical effects of environmental exposures can go unnoticed for decades, and it can be extraordinarily difficult to establish causation to military service that has long since passed. This legislation is a positive step forward, and we ask the committee to pass this measure without delay.
H.R. 3723, the Enhanced Veteran Healthcare Experience Act of 2011:
The VFW does not support H.R. 3723. While we do not support the legislation, we understand the impetus for it and agree that improvements to the current Fee-Basis system of referring veterans to a private-sector provider are long overdue. The program has many areas where improvements would provide more return on investment for the government and would improve the quality of care for veterans. Currently, coordination of care between VA and the private provider is virtually non-existent. As a result of limited controls and processes, VA does not have the ability to evaluate the quality of care provided, or integrate the associated private-sector medical records into existing medical history records the VA maintains for that veteran. VA also has little reach into the offices of doctors caring for veterans through the Fee-Basis paradigm to ensure the services being billed were actually performed. VA has no ability to guarantee or measure distance or timeliness standards, and veterans get no assistance from VA in finding doctors or assistance making appointments once a doctor is found. Clearly, there is much to be desired, especially when taking into account that the VA paid out more than $4 billion in health care claims in FY 2010 alone.
Nevertheless, the VFW cannot support this legislation at the present time. The bill would mandate the Secretary to enter into contracts with network providers in order to provide a nationwide network of service providers to improve the non-VA care, thereby addressing many of the issues identified above. However, the VFW is concerned that the legislation would result in VA moving veterans outside of the VA system precipitously. Instead of working to improve processes and make the VA system more efficient and increase throughput, VA would have the obligation to move veterans into the non-VA care program when timeliness or distance standards are not met.
Complicating matters is the reality that the only way to make such a program cost-effective is to actively manage the volume of referrals into the program. Network providers would find it necessary to give care providers reasonable expectations of patient access and volume to negotiate a favorable rate for services being contracted.
The VFW would also call into question the ability for contracts entered into under this paradigm to be successful without first seeing how VA executes the implementation of the Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT) model of patient-centric care within the VA. The proponents of this legislation pre-suppose that the PACT care coordinator would act as a conduit to a care coordinator employed by the network provider. However, we see no evidence to suggest that the PACT model will routinely and successfully coordinate the care provided internally at VA without this layer of complexity added to the equation. The VFW believes that the PACT model must be a success. Therefore, we should ensure that it is refined to smooth out the rough edges before taking this step.
At the same time, VA is moving forward, if slowly, with their own efforts to implement the Patient Centered Community Care (PCCC) program that would establish contracts to provide a limited portfolio of services that would be more fully coordinated with VA. Publicly available data suggests that this portfolio is limited to medical and surgical services, but excludes dialysis, mental health, and primary care. While it is certainly true that we believe any successful program to coordinate non-VA care would include these services, we firmly believe VA must get this right. It is imperative that these issues be resolved, and we believe that VA's initiative must be given a chance to be executed and evaluated before fundamental and controversial changes, such that this bill would precipitate, are allowed to move forward.
Our veterans deserve access to timely and high quality health care that is fully integrated and responsive to their needs. To achieve this, we strongly encourage the committee to expeditiously conduct due diligence on the Fee-Basis program to have a better understanding of this and other potential options before initiating further legislative changes to this program.
H.R. 4079, the Safe Housing for Homeless Veterans Act:
The VFW supports H.R. 4079. We believe this legislation will ensure that homeless veterans are living in housing that is deemed safe and in compliance with codes required by county and state laws. Currently, VA is required to check housing certificates before awarding grants for housing services provided to homeless veterans. However, a thorough check of fire and safety requirements, as well as structural conditions of the building, are often overlooked.
H.R. 4079 would require certification that the building has met all necessary code specifications before a grant would be awarded. It also gives priority in awarding grants to those seeking assistance for any project that would make improvements to a building in cases where plans exist to provide housing and services for homeless veterans.
The VFW believes that there is no greater need than providing a safe and secure environment for our homeless veterans and their families. This legislation will protect the most vulnerable by making certain that the housing provided fills that need until they can return to independent community living.
Madam Chairwoman, this concludes my statement. I would be happy to answer any questions that you or the members of the Committee may have.

Merino means quality.
Made from 100% merino wool, Castelli Quindici Soft Socks are the ideal choice for long winter rides in cold and windy conditions.
By now you've hopefully learned the merits of wool. A traditional material renowned for its softness, merino wool keeps your feet warm and comfortable while letting moisture evaporate. This breathability is especially important for cyclists, as winter months often mean cramming socks into shoes and shoes into booties. Without a means by which moisture can escape, your feet become colder faster; making wool socks an important cold-weather companion. Wool is also naturally odor-resistant -- a nice bonus.
Thanks to a tall 15cm cuff, Castelli Quindici Soft Socks also offer outstanding ankle coverage, so you won't have to worry about a thin strip of exposed skin between your tights and socks. They're available in Anthracite and Black and come in three sizes -- Small/Medium, Large/X-Large, and XX-Large.

Holy Socks
Got a toe hole on my tenth (approximately) ride. Very comfortable and quite thick, but not a durable performance sock.
Great socks
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
Perfect height and beautiful design. Super high quality cooler weather sock that got me through this past winter when paired with the Castelli Toe Thingy and some overshoes when it got really cold. Fantastic moisture transfer as well. I wear a 44 shoe and the L/XL fits great.
Simply Awesome
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Made in Italy. These Castelli wool socks are a work of art. The quality is 10/10. Really. Wait until you open the package.
Wool insulates, vents sweat, and provides low/zero odor -naturally. Wool is a superfabric.
Castelli officially rates these for use in 23-60° F weather but these are very versatile. Cold months, sure, but I also wear these in 55-60° weather with my Spring knicker bibs. Awesome.
Quindici means 15; as in 15 cm high cuff. But these do eventually shrink down (vertically) about an inch.
Longevity/quality: I have a pair that I have worn extensively for two seasons. They eventually pilled a little around the foot (as all wool socks do), but absolutely no holes. These have held up great.
Sizing: The official sizing chart at the Castelli website is correct.
Cycling shoe size: 36-39 = S/M
Cycling shoe size: 40-43 = L/XL
Cycling shoe size: 44-47 = 2XL
I wear a size 45 in Shimano road shoes. The XXL fit perfect, especially after a few washings.
Great socks
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
Well, they are socks. And they are warm. And comfortable. And fit correctly (I'm a size 47 shoe, XXL fits good). Uh, let's see, they look good too? That's pretty much it in a nutshell. Wool, comfy, good quality, yep, they work great!
Love. These. Socks.
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: XXL
I'm a size 14 and the XXL fit perfectly. Beautifully manufactured, and highest quality. They are a bit thicker than normal cycling socks, but I've been using them as a general winter sock in boots for more vigorous winter activities (sledding, clearing snow, etc...) as well as cycling. Warm toes= happy feet.
They are soft and comfy.
Warm socks
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
Warm for cold weather cycling. Good product
Castelli Merino Quindici Socks
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: XXL
I used these only once, with a pair of thin synthetic Pearl Izumi socks under them. My feet were warm, 40 degree temperatures, 4 hour ride. I usually wear a size 12 or 13 American shoe size, and I bought the XXL size . They fit fine, not very long up the calf, and not any extra in the toe, but I expect they will stretch out a little. They felt comfortable, and warm Recommended.
Perfect cool weather socks
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Comfortable, warm, perfect fit, great quality.... I wouldn't change a thing. These are the perfect socks for cool weather rides that aren't cold enough for shoe covers. Next time they are on sale I'll buy several more pairs.
Nice socks - chapeau Castelli!
These are nice socks. Especially when you can get them on sale. Durable, well made and warm.
Castelli Quindici Sock
These socks are great. 150cm lenght and materials kept my feet warm. As for the toe box, holes all over the place. No! I don't have oyster shells for nails. Castelli could use kevlar materials in the toe area.
Love these socks!
Been wearing these socks for long rides on cooler, fall Colorado days. I'm a firm beleiver that socks make a huge difference in making my ride comfortable. These socks stay in place, don't provide any friction, and keep my feet warm, but not too hot. I plan on buying several more pairs if I see them on sale again.

Transforming learning through global collaboration
As we work towards designing our own projects, there are a lot of things to discuss. We may want to split these into subgroups for discussion - if you do, please leave a link in the discussion and we'll feature it to bring others into the conversation. For now, let's look at the essential questions for this chapter:
Views: 101
The notion of geographic diversity as a characteristic of global collaboration is interesting. I live and work in Hawaii, which of course is in the US, and also in the most isolated landmass on earth. Even the different islands, much less the nearest states (california or Alaska, depending) are like different worlds. So for our students to travel, or work in collaborative projects with others, they can have real meaning and open their eyes to new things even if they are "just" domestic.
The co-creation seems to be really important. It doesn't have to be making a product, but it could be coming to a shared understanding, or an agreement. In that sense, even the handshake activities are co-creation.
Characteristics of a successful global project: Sustained participation, shift in learning among teachers and students, not wastepaper work. I think it is hard to measure in a concrete way but that true learning is easy to see as an educator. Also, we may not know what learning takes place, we may simply be planting seeds that will one day grow into something greater than our lesson, or the grade we assign.
An engaged teacher is one who is learning too. One who thinks, plans and knows what her learners need to be successful. One who is there for them when they need her to be. One who knows when to challenge and when to back away. One who will admit when they don't know something. One who loves what they do. One who models by learning and connecting globally too. #flatclass

A beautiful piece of wall art can liven up the dreariest room and truly makes a statement about the personality and style of the people who inhabit that space. One of the best spaces to fill with art prints is the living room. These common rooms welcome friends and family who will find incredible joy in your art decor, whether modern, abstract or family oriented prints. Adding frames to these will add sophistication and timeless beauty. Framed art prints are hugely popular wall decor due to their versatility, affordability, and customization possibilities. Framed prints can add color and style to any room and are an excellent choice for budget-conscious art lovers.
Art prints are images produced on poster paper or canvas that retain the color and detail of the original while enhancing it at scale. Prices may vary depending on whether you choose to print on regular or premium paper. Prints can feature a variety of images and photos such as professional photography, abstract portraits, modern black and white prints, panoramic landscapes, and more. These pictures can be store-bought, purchased from an art gallery, or you can select a favorite photo from your archives and reproduce it as a larger-than-life print. Imagine your favorite family photo hanging in the living room, putting a welcoming personal touch to the room.
Tips for Framing Your Art Print
Adding a frame to your art print may seem like an unnecessary expense, but it is worth consideration. A frame distinguishes an art print from regular posters, and will add a polished, professional finish. Whether you choose a frame made of wood, metal, or other material, it is important that the frame is selected specifically for that particular image. For example, a photograph of a tree against a bright blue sky should have a dark wood frame that contrasts well with the colors in the image.
If you wish to see how different frames set off different kinds of images, visit a gallery or fine art photography studio and study how the frame color, material, and design works with and enhances the picture.
Frames come in many different shapes and sizes. The most common are 8x10 for a table top image or 16x20 for a piece of wall art.
If you have any questions about the type of frame, you should choose for your art print, ask a design professional for their opinion to make sure that you select the perfect finishing touch to your home decor.

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Dan Mullen made sure his team hit the ground running.
Mississippi State reported Wednesday to resume preparations for its New Year's Day tilt with No. 21 Northwestern in the Gator Bowl. The Bulldogs (8-4) will begin practices today at the University of North Florida.
"We had them out running around today to kind of get some of that Christmas eating out of their system – sweat, stretch a little bit," Mullen said. "Guys had a lot of energy today. I think they're excited to be back and be back at work."
Staff shuffle
MSU returns to work minus cornerbacks coach Melvin Smith, who two days ago took the same position at Auburn. Safeties coach Tony Hughes will coach the entire secondary this week.
Mullen said he'll look at a potential replacement for Smith after the bowl game, and he said it's possible Hughes could continue coaching the secondary, which would allow Mullen to hire someone at another position.
"There's still a lot of options out there," he said.
This is MSU's third consecutive bowl appearance, and it won the last two. Mullen is going to mostly stick with the normal bowl week routine.
The game plan was installed before Christmas break. Same goes for Northwestern (9-3), which is making its fifth straight bowl appearance under coach Pat Fitzgerald. He's 0-4.
"It's incredibly motivating, but you look at the games," Fitzgerald said. "We've gone toe to toe and got into some slobberknockers, street fights or whatever what you want to call them. We just haven't had ended up on the right end.
"So hopefully we give our guys a good plan, and if we do we'll be all right."

By COREY BLUEMELStaff Writer
A two year project has reached its end with the completion of the 25 year history of the Castle Valley Pageant. Montell and Kathryn Seely have eagerly awaited the final result and are now happy to have the book in hand. They said, "The 25th anniversary of the pageant was approaching and there had been a lot of history involved with the organization and the continued production of the pageant year after year; so we decided to record this history. If it is not recorded then no one will know the history or it will be forgotten.
"The project has taken two years. We knew what we were in for, because we have been involved with the production of a county history book and knew it wasn't an easy undertaking, but we sailed right into it. We sent letters to everyone that had been involved in the pageant over the years and we invited them to write their own personal history of their involvement in the pageant and include photos if possible. About 100 people responded to the request for personal stories and we have included them in the book.
"Carolyn Jorgensen also had some photographs taken by the Emery County Progress, which are included in the book. The cover photo for the book was taken by Phil Fauver who writes for the Progress sometimes. We wrote a chapter of the book for every year of the pageant," said the Seelys.
Kathryn said, "Montell keeps an extensive personal journal and most of the chapters were written with the aid of this journal. He records everything and his journal was a big source of material. The book also includes financial records for the pageant, newspaper articles, old programs and postcards as well as a copy of the brochure now used to promote the pageant. A unique feature of the book is a copy of the bumper sticker used to advertise the pageant from the first year."
The Castle Valley Pageant is included in the eight pageants that are sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The local pageant was added to the official pageant list on May 17, 1990.
Kathryn said, "We wanted the books by Christmas so we could begin shipping out the preorders that needed to be mailed. We also gave out all of the preordered books for locals at the Castle Dale library. One of the things that makes the new book so nice is that many of the pictures are full color photos."
Montell said, "There was a delay with the binding of the book and so I went up there one day and said I'd just stay there and wait for them to be finished. I brought them home that day. It was a great day when they were finished. Our daughter LeAnne Seely is listed as the editor for the book and she was instrumental in the project. Anyone can still get a book and can call us at 381-2195. The 2004 production of the Castle Valley Pageant will be the 27th pageant. This has been a labor of love for us. We are always looking for anyone who wants to become a part of the pageant. They can call Bruce Anderson at 381-2362 to find out how to become involved. He is the current pageant president.
"The pageant was started to preserve the history of the people in our county and to teach this history to the young people. This pageant book was written to not only promote the pageant but to propogate its message. The people are the most important thing and we wanted to tell the story of not only the settlers, but the modern people who reenact the lives of the earlier settlers to the Castle Valley. These people all have their own story and we wanted to record that.
"We hope this pageant will also inspire people to write down and tell their own stories. We have had a lot of people contact us about starting their own pageants, we also wish to be a role model for these people and help them with pageants of their own. It is our hope that this pageant and its rich history will in some way help to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers. As the story of our ancestors is told let's not forget to add our own histories, so we will not be forgotten," said Montell.

Very comfy ride!
"This is my first pair of Saucony running shoes and I have no complaints. The fit is great -- no heel blisters or sore areas in my arches or toes. My rating of four stars (rather than five) is only because I haven't used them for more than two months so no experience as to durability yet."

Although similar to the English-style cheddars made by other Vermont producers, Crowley Cheese is an "American Original." There are very few cheeses that originated in the United States. Most came with the various immigrant groups who settled our country. Similar to a cheddar and grouped in the cheddar family of cheeses, Crowley Cheese is officially designated by the FDA as a "Colby" even though it is not truly similar to industrial Colby and despite the fact that Crowley Cheese was made for decades before Colby cheese, named after Colby, Wisconsin, existed. Crowley Cheese is the only remaining original Vermont cheese.
Because of steps that are taken that are not done in making an English style cheddar, Crowley Cheese is neither as dry nor nearly as acidic as cheddar. It does not take as long to develop a strong robust flavor. Some cheddars take as much as several years to pass beyond bland or pasty. When compared with traditional cheddar, Crowley Cheese has a smoother, some say "creamier" taste. The taste difference is noticeable.
Today, after three generations of Crowley's and two generations of Smith's, Crowley Cheese continues to make one of the finest cheeses in America.

This holistic formula's unique, sensitive ingredients are protected by FruitO2X, a blend of high ORAC fruit extracts in easy-to-swallow vegetable capsules for maximum assimilation and absorption. Providing 95% Curcuminoids Dietary Supplement Herbal ProductsThe general role of herbs is to support and protect bodily functions and processes. In fact, they have been used traditionally to implement a shift in underlying physiological processes so that the body can readily defend itself and/or adapt to any situation at hand. More specifically, herbs have been used safely and effectively since the time of recorded Eastern and Western history for an endless list of reasons, such as general health and wellness, healing, immunity/resistance, weight and stress management, raising and renewing body vitality/energy, and a whole cadre of structure/function applications in the body. Aside from their medicinal qualities, herbs can also provide the body phytonutrients it does not always receive from either a poor diet or environmental deficiencies in the soil and air. Herbs contain a variety of active constituents that generally act in a wider, more general, less specific way than most single ingredient therapies. As previously mentioned, recognition of the potential health-promoting effects of plants can be traced back to ancient civilizations, including Egypt, China, Greece and India, as well as the Native Americans in the New World. In fact, many of the medicines currently available on the market today originally came from plants that have been part of the daily diet for centuries. Indeed, the writings of the 5th century Greek physician Hippocrates support the notion, "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food." - Hippocrates Standardizing herbs is a process that ensures a precise amount in each serving of the particular active constituent(s) in a given herb, proven to have specific pharmacological benefits. Standardization requires control from every aspect of the agricultural and manufacturing processes and beyond to guarantee a consistent product every time. Bluebonnet's herbal products with standardized extracts are manufactured without using any harmful solvents and are made of the purest herbal raw materials available on the market today. Nutrition to the Fifth PowerBluebonnet Nutrition was founded in 1991 on the basic principle that they offer the cleanest, purest, most natural nutritional supplements offered exclusively through independent natural food retailers. Today, Bluebonnet Nutrition is proud to say that we still honor this commitment and that their devotion is true and loyal. The landscape of nutrition is changing rapidly. However, Bluebonnet Nutrition is not simply changing with it. Bluebonnet Nutrition leading the way. Since the launch of Bluebonnet Nutrition's company in the heart of Sugar Land, Texas, they have carefully sowed the seeds of success by our unwavering pledge to the five powers of Bluebonnet Nutrition: Nature, Science, Quality, Truth and Knowledge - one power for every petal of the Texas state flower from which they take their name. The Best the Earth Can OfferBluebonnet Nutrition's first commitment has always been to nature. Not only so they can identify nutrients that are good, pure and wholesome, but also so they can harness nature's power and benefit from its strength. Bluebonnet Nutrition searched the world for locations where climate, temperature and soil converge to grow the finest raw materials. Conducting frequent on-site inspections, Bluebonnet Nutrition's ingredient selections are never based on price, but instead on one simple criterion: Is it the best the Earth has to offer? To preserve nature's freshness, we purchase raw materials in small quantities. And when ingredients enter our warehouse, they are quarantined and sent to Bluebonnet Nutrition's on-site quality assurance laboratory to undergo raw material identification and microbial testing. If a nutrient does not meet Bluebonnet Nutrition's stringent quality standards, it cannot be used in Bluebonnet supplements. Everything Purple Starts Off Green Bluebonnet's dedication to nature does not end with ingredient selection. Bluebonnet Nutrition's is an enterprise-wide effort that encompasses environmentally sound manufacturing practices and operations and green initiatives that support the philosophy of a whole new generation of health-conscious, "green" consumers who believe in reducing our dependency on fossil fuel, sustainability and social responsibility, which involves giving back to our communities, country and world-at-large, Specifically, Bluebonnet Nutrition has implemented conservational practices from instituting a corporate-wide recycling program, to using recyclable paper and corrugated packaging and shippers whenever possible, as well as biodegradable packing materials that dissolve in landfills, to printing their marketing materials with soy-based inks. Plus, Bluebonnet supports efforts and teachings on ecological preservation, which is why Bluebonnet Nutrition contributes to two non-profit organizations, United Plant Savers and American Botanical Council, devoted to sustainability and education. In addition, not only does Bluebonnet Nutrition manufacture in their own environmentally-friendly, state-of-the-art facility, but they use alternative energy sources (e.g., wind and solar) whenever possible to help reduce their carbon footprint. And most importantly, in the spirit of giving back, Bluebonnet embraces its civic responsibilities by contributing to the Houston Buyers Club, whose core mission is to improve the quality of life for people with health-related conditions through nutritional education and affordable nutritional supplements. Innovation is Only NaturalWith over 100 years of collective industry experience in nutritional science, Bluebonnet Nutrition's product development team is not only ensuring that Bluebonnet supplements are safe and efficacious, they're also committed to developing cleaner, more effective formulas. In fact, Bluebonnet has been the first to launch some of the industry's most innovative ingredients, such as ubiquinol, licorice flavonoid oil (Glavonoid™), grape seed extract, vegetarian SOD (GliSODin™) and nucleotides. And in a highly competitive, uninspired protein beverage market, they have included the latter two revolutionary ingredients in the most unique protein formulas to hit the market in years: Super Earth™ Phytonutrient Soy Protein Powder and Multi-Action Whey of Life™ Protein Powder. Setting New StandardsQuality may be the most overused word in the world today. Nonetheless, for nutritional supplements, what could be more important? That is why Bluebonnet Nutrition built their own 100,000 sq ft, state-of-the-art kosher manufacturing and distribution facility with earth-friendly, pharmaceutical-grade systems that are setting new standards for quality assurance. Plus, they have also invested in the arduous process of kosher certifying our products. Since keeping kosher has become synonymous with eating foods that have been manufactured at a higher standard, Bluebonnet products bearing the KOF-K emblem have been carefully supervised with each ingredient tracked to its origin and strict rules imposed on hygienic processes. In addition to applying kosher quality standards to their operation, Bluebonnet Nutrition manufacturing process meets the rigorous model established by the U.S. Pharmacopoeia - even though they don't have to. By the time a Bluebonnet supplement appears on a store shelf, it has been subjected to stringent examinations for potency, purity, uniformity, hardness, disintegration and dissolution. And not just by in-house quality control technicians, but by respected independent laboratories. That is quality that will last even after you have opened the bottle. Just the FactsThere are so few absolute truths in the world today - except when it comes to nutritional supplements. Nutrients are either in the supplement or they are not. Bluebonnet Nutrition makes sure they are. Not only does Bluebonnet Nutrition manufacture 90% of their products in-house, they employ a unique practice called "content uniformity" to ensure a consistent nutrient blend from batch to batch. It is part of Bluebonnet's commitment to the natural products industry, as well as their own principles. Before a Bluebonnet supplement arrives at a natural food store, it is analyzed and evaluated by lab technicians. Through HPLC assay tests, Bluebonnet documents with 100% accuracy that what is on the label is in the bottle. Bluebonnet Nutrition even performs accelerated stability tests to ensure that potency levels will be maintained through the expiration date. Bottomline, on Bluebonnet labels, what you read is always what you get. Meeting Nutritional NeedsBluebonnet offers a complete line of natural vitamins, minerals, multiples, amino acids, proteins, herbal extracts, and specialty supplements, such as antioxidants, CoQ10/ubiquinol, glucosamine, omega fatty acids, fiber/digestive aids, probiotics and food supplements. All made without unnecessary colors, flavors, fillers, binders or excipients. Choose a "delivery system" that suits your lifestyle: caplets, mini-caplets, softgels, chewables, liquids, powders or Kosher vegetarian capsules. Your loyalty and trust in our nutritional supplements is greatly appreciated by the Bluebonnet family.

Poundstone: Literal translation of German Pfundstein, probably a metonymic occupational name for a weighing official or a merchant who used stones as weights (definition from http://genealogy.familyeducation.com/surname-origin/poundstone)
My Poundstone line begins with my paternal grandmother, Ruby Pearl Poundstone. She was born in Cerro Gordo, Piatt, Illinois. Her father, Ora Pearl Poundstone, was born in Young America, Cass, Indiana and died in Bement, Piatt, Illinois. Ora's father, Richard Poundstone born in 1838 in Bowling Greene, Licking, Ohio and died in Bement, Piatt, Illinois. Richard's father, John Nicholas Poundstone, was born in Fayette County, Pennsylvania and died in Young America, Cass, Indiana.John N. Poundstone's father, Phillip Poundstone began life in Pennsylvania and died in Licking County, Ohio. Richard Poundstone, born in 1724 in Germany is the earliest known Poundstone in my line. He died and raised his family in Pennsylvania. My line is fairly well documented through John Nicholas Poundstone. Research is needed to verify Phillip and Richard Poundstone.

Interesting! I have information stating Reinhart Punstein was born in Framersheim Germany in 1736. Perhaps several Richard Poundstones came to the US? I think it was a common name.

Gorgeous Shoes!
"These shoes are very feminine and gorgeous. The con on this shoe is the zipper. I ordered these online and the zipper was very tough. Then it split. now, DSW was very courteous and shipped me a new pair overnight. The next pair I got the zipper was still very stiff but I was able to zip them. Maybe just bad luck on my 2 pair but i still would recommend this unique and pretty pair of pumps! Enjoy!"
