Every day we do the same things, we eat, we wash, we go to work, we sleep. The Earth goes through seasons and every year we circle the sun, every 230 million years the solar system circles the Milky Way. We have elections every five years, we wage the same wars, and it never ends. From the most mundane to the most epic events they all repeat. Repetition is integral to our lives, again and again and again, on and on and on.For this piece I took a photo. I then photocopied the photo on an old copier. I then photocopied the copy a number of times. Each copy created aberrations and mutations to the original image. Once I was happy with the final copy I then scanned it and tweaked it in photoshop.This is a limited edition giclée print on Canson Aquarelle Rag paper. This is museum grade, 310 gsm, 100% cotton fine art and photo paper, with beautifully warm off-white tones and extreme texture.

Public school watchdogs' legislative work increased Wednesday when the Mississippi House invited conference with the Senate on House Bill 890, a package of education proposals, including charter schools favored by Gov. Phil Bryant and Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, and several other controversial initiatives also alive in other conference committees.
The bill, which was held on a motion to reconsider after failing Tuesday to win a majority for conference, passed 61-56, but House Education Chairman John Moore, R-Brandon, offered no assurance an agreement acceptable to the House could be worked out with Senate conferees.
As amended by the Senate, the bill would widen provisions allowing charter schools and gradually raise entry standards for teacher education. It would give a veto over local charters to C-rated districts for only three years.
Many House members want A, B and C-rated districts to have permanent vetoes, and that could be a sticking point in negotiations.
House Bill 890 also includes third-grade reading proficiency, higher standards to become future teachers, and new measures for literacy for students in kindergarten through third grade.
HB 890's charter school provisions may be in the bill in violation of legislative rules; that and other measures require careful monitoring wherever they remain alive:
• Allowing for-profits to manage charter schools, placing emphasis on profits more than pupil progress.
• Charter school language that would allow students from any school district to cross district lines to attend a charter school, an invitation to over-crowding, financial distress and conflict counterproductive to better learning.
• An unfunded mandate to increase literacy in the first three grades without funding reading coaches, additional training for teachers, and providing retention of children without improving instruction, a sure formula for avoidable failure.
The bill would abolish the ability of schools scoring C on the state's rating scale to veto charter schools in those districts after 2016, a move widely considered an unnecessary loss of local autonomy, erasing the possibility of a C district moving up to high-performing B or A status.
Charter schools, as newly published information from other states suggests, are not the cure-all touted by Mississippi proponents.
Charters, at their best, could be helpful in failing districts where students need the specialized attention the best charters offer.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in an 18-part series about Northeast Mississippi downtowns.
By Ginna Parsons
Daily Journal
NEW ALBANY – While downtown New Albany houses the vital functions of a city – banks, churches, courthouse, police department – it is also known as a destination spot for shopping.
"We've got several retail clothing stores, gift shops, a jewelry store, antiques shops, restaurants, bakeries, boutiques, salons and a bookstore," said Vickie Duke, manager of the New Albany Main Street Association.
According to reinvestment statistics in the Main Street District that Duke provided, between October 1996 and August 2012, New Albany netted 70 new businesses, saw the improvement of 46 buildings, and boasted 19 downtown loft apartments.
"Retail has actually doubled in the seven years that I've been here," Duke said.
Upscale retailers such as Van Atkins Jewelers, T. Sappington & Company, Barbara Tyre, Something Special and Southern Traditions have long drawn customers from near and far, and boutiques like Bead Shack, Runway and Obsessions are attracting the younger crowd.
"Downtown has always been a vital part of New Albany," she said.
For this city of about 8,900 residents, downtown means Bankhead Street, which is several blocks long. Main Street is actually one block over and also includes restaurants, antiques shops, gift shops and other retailers.
"We consider Bankhead and Main streets 'downtown,'" Duke said, "but any event that the Main Street Association promotes includes businesses that are even five miles out."
Downtown is also home to the Magnolia Civic Center, which was renovated about 13 years ago and now includes a banquet room for wedding receptions and parties, although plays are still performed there, she said.
Stroll down Bankhead and you'll find very few empty window fronts.
"There are only a handful of buildings – not even that really – that are vacant and the ones that are largely need extensive revitalization," Duke said. "There's an old drug store that I would love to see someone come in and maybe do a restaurant."
And if you can't find a parking place on one side of the street or the other, just leave your car right in the middle of Bankhead.
"There's a one-block area between a stop sign and a stoplight where people park in the middle of the street," Duke said. "That's one of the unique aspects of downtown. People love that when they visit. It freaks them out."
Cooper Park is a small downtown green space that offers a fountain and, usually, park benches, but right now they're in the process of being replaced. Located in the spot where Van Atkins was before it burned, Cooper Park plays host to Picnic in the Park, a Junior Auxiliary fundraiser, and several outdoor weddings.
Downtown also sees a lot of traffic from festivals and special events, such as Arts, Beats and Eats; In Bloom; Paint the Town; Upstairs, Downtown; and Hill Country Halloween and Chili Cookoff.
"We're trying to do some different things to draw people out and downtown," Duke said. "So far, we think we've been successful."

We here at Pornhub care about women's breasts, so we've decided to unleash the Boob Bus on New York City!
We know it's nowhere near breast cancer awareness month, but that's exactly why we thought this was the perfect time for a mid-year reminder that breasts should be examined every month. Hop on board the bus and find out how to feel boobs...the right way; with a little help from Bree Olson, her sexy special helpers and a doctor.
And for those of you who can't make it to New York, we've included some helpful resources on the official Boob Bus page.
Take care (of your tits)

Island for rent. You can build a blind if you want.
The blind was old and I hunt out of a boat blind anyway.

You can set on on either side depending on the wind or tide. You can also body boot a couple hundred yards off the island.
You can call me 410-808-0858

> To me the full strut decoys pose a major safety hazard to a hunter, but I have never hunted behind one nor do I plan on hunting with one so I wouldn't know for sure. <
I would not use a strutter in a rifle state or on public land. Then again, any type of decoy is dangerous where rifles are legal or on public land. Other than that, a little common sense goes a long way, as Ben noted.
With a strut decoy, recommended placement is where it can be seen for long distances... by other turkeys, and for safety. Placed on a field edge, the hunter can see anything approach from across the field. If he is safely set up with a tree at his back, his rear approach is covered if someone should try and shoot at his decoy from behind. In open hardwoods, the hunter can see well beyond his deke for anything approaching...likewise his backside is covered if properly setup.
Where trouble is invited is when a hunter employs the "I want the turkey to be in gun range as soon as I see him" philosophy. This drastically shortens reflex and target identification time. Without any scientific data, it's probably a safe assumption that a good percentage of hunting accidents happen in this manner. This would be an especially poor, if not stupid, setup to use a strut deke for. If another hunter is closing in on turkey sounds, which may be you, and you can't see what's approaching....well, that's a dangerous situation with or without dekes.
Gobbler dekes are fairly new so it will take years to reveal if they are inherantly more dangerous than any other decoy. In the meantime, hunters without common sense are what you have to watch out for. Unforunately, common sense is what is noticeably absent when a hunter pulls the trigger without positively identifying his target.
Common sense....hmmmm, is there a pattern here?

Beginners are the most important people in the club. They are the new blood that will keep the community developing, and if there are no beginners then the community stagnates and the interest dies. When this happens, the club may be very close to folding up. Members of the club should be aware of this danger, so that in addition to teaching any potential new players, they show the appropriate attitude to them. Beginners must not feel that they are outside the existing group of players and have to fight for acceptance; they must be welcomed with open arms and encouraged as much as possible. Above all talk to them, about their life outside go, (possibly over a pint), to get to know them personally.
Some go clubs, particularly at universities, have certain meetings where more than one beginner turns up. Others rarely see more than one new player at a time. In either case, the rules of go need to be explained. Since it is important for this to be done clearly, players at the club who expect to teach beginners should think beforehand about what approach they intend to adopt. The various leaflets available may be useful for this purpose (e.g. the BGA Introductory leaflet, and Andreas Fecke's cartoon introduction).
Teaching with a board, and with the subject able to ask questions is, however, a rather different task from teaching simply through a written text. You will, with some experience, come up with your own methods of teaching beginners; however the following scheme is one starting point. Remember that the important thing is to have some sort of plan before you start - you should nevertheless be flexible, as some people take to the game more quickly than others.
The point of the first few games is to make the beginner comfortable with the rules and to give them a feel for the game. Remember that it is not essential to explain all of the rules straight away; in particular, details like ko and seki are likely to be confusing. Keep in mind at all times that it is hard to take in large amounts of information in one go. Because of this, you are likely to have more success if you describe just enough rules to get playing, then introduce further rules (e.g. ko) as necessary.
Begin by explaining the basic rules:
Try to be consistent with your terminology (e.g. always use the words "stone" and "turn" rather than "piece" or "move") and avoid the use of jargon (you may find it useful to explain "liberty" and "atari", but that should be all).
The beginner now knows enough to start playing. You should explain the handicap system and give the beginner an appropriate number of handicap stones (as a rough guide, the beginner is about 30kyu and you should give 1 handicap stone for 5 grades difference on a 9x9 board). If you intend to let several beginners play amongst themselves, you can skip this detail at first.
The first games should be played on a 9x9 board as this allows the beginner to get a quick introduction to all aspects of the rules - a larger board appears daunting at first.
It is good to encourage the beginner to play their first games quickly; many people in their first games think very carefully before making the wrong move! Some beginners can freeze completely, and need encouraging to make a move. You should aim to win by a small margin; although it may be tempting to capture all of black's stones given an opportunity, this will discourage many. It is important to remember throughout the games that the point is to make it comprehensible, not to win or lose, and the teacher needs to play accordingly. Use phrases like "close game" if the margin is anything less than around ten points, and after each game, try to give a summary of what happened.
At some stage, a ko will arise naturally, at which point you should explain the ko rule - try to resist explaining its implications however! It is also likely that a snapback will arise; this often confuses beginners who often think it is disallowed because it is a ko or suicide, so you should take care to explain why it is legal. Try to avoid ko or snapback in the first game, however!
Most people have difficulty knowing when to pass in their first few games, and end up examining the board for several minutes not knowing what to do. You should be prepared to comment at this stage, either by asking what they are thinking, or remarking that you think the game is over. Occasionally, new players pass when there are still points left, in which case you may want to comment that the game isn't quite over yet. Whatever happens, don't let the endgame drag on too long, as there are far more interesting and important things to learn.
Many beginners have difficulty understanding which groups are alive or dead at the end of the game. Often, they will try impossible invasions into your territory. Be patient with this; they will learn more by playing out these situations than if you try to explain.
After one or two games, when you have captured several large groups, the beginner will probably be very keen to know how to avoid this! The easiest way to demonstrate eyes is to make a group with a three space big eye in the corner, and show what happens when either player plays on the vital point. You may choose to set up some simple life and death problems for the beginner to try to solve.
If you have more than one beginner in the club, it is good for them to play amongst themselves. While the handicap system allows players of greatly differing strength to play, many people do prefer the chance to play against people of roughly equal strength. All club members should still, of course, be prepared to play teaching games against the new players, remembering that the more they do this, the sooner they will have more even game opponents!
It is a matter of some debate as to whether beginners should play on a small 9x9 board, or play on a full size board as soon as possible. While the first games should certainly be on a small board, to some extent, it should be up to beginners to decide which is most enjoyable for them - after all, the more they enjoy it, the more likely they are to continue playing. However, you should not expect the stronger players to have to give more than 9 stones handicap on any size of board. The beginner is likely to get more benefit from playing a 10 kyu on a 13x13 board with a 6 stone handicap (or even a 9x9 board with a 4 stone handicap) than on a 19x19 board with a 20 stone handicap. This is also likely to be more beneficial for the 10 kyu.
Teaching games should be a constant feature of all go clubs; every member should be encouraged to give weaker players teaching games. This is beneficial for everyone; most people find that explaining a concept to someone improves their own understanding of that concept. Some points to bear in mind are:
Although Go programs do not yet challenge players above around 5 kyu, they are very useful for beginners. It is said that beginners should lose their first 50 games as quickly as possible, and many people prefer to do this against a computer rather than against a human opponent! Playing a few games against a computer is a good way for a beginner to learn common shapes and simple tactics. Computer programs also do not get upset if you keep taking moves back. Some possible programs are:

We hear rumors about Franco's student film Feast of Stephen, in which he coerces over-eager Tisch kids to act in his gay sex movie.
James Franco kicks off the new year with a dabble at Sundance. He also weighs in on the Spiderman debacle.
We hear rumors about Franco's student film Feast of Stephen, in which he coerces over-eager Tisch kids to act in his gay sex movie.
James Franco gives Esquire a taste of his short stories, Palo Alto. It is pretty terrible. He also has a documentary about Saturday Night Live. It is also terrible. He is accepted to Yale's grad program as well.
Franco stars in a Gucci ad.
James Franco talks about a possible Planet of the Apes prequel. 826Valencia offers the chance to make a James Franco student film with James Franco for $25. General Hospital realizes it can totally win more awards when it hires Franco. He starts talking about taking a second appearance.
James Franco begins to talk about incorporating drag artist Kalup Linzy into his next General Hospital appearance.
James Franco premieres on General Hospital for the second time. He acts nuts. We talk to his mom. He promises he's not gay.
"What James Franco Did Today" becomes our favorite blog. New York Magazine totally steals our story about Franco, doesn't give us credit. He starts getting even more "meta," but also takes a role in Eat, Pray, Love. Commercialism and art have never gone so well together, except for when Andy Warhol did it.
James gets a D in acting at Tisch, for "never showing up." He is totally not gay.
Palo Alto comes out, so James Franco can call himself a writer now. He throws a girl's smartphone across the room at a party. Terry Richardson dresses James in drag.
The first preview for Your Highness comes out, sort of redeeming Franco's funniness. 127 Hours premieres.
James Franco decides he's hosting the Academy Awards. And he's coming back to General Hospital. He's nominated for a Golden Globe. He sings about his butthole with Kalup Linzy. He still swears he's not gay.

We now have a non-asshole president, so let us bask in this rare opportunity to proclaim "America! Fuck yeah!" sans self-reproach, and to observe another of our nation's better qualities: our damn respectable musical heritage. Even in Belgium, where they may not appreciate our government's past eight years of foreign policy, they do appreciate Somerville's Three Day Threshold. The calamitous country combo recently completed their second tour on the opposite side of the Atlantic.
"New Year's Eve is very different over there," elucidates Kier Byrnes over munchies at the Alchemist Lounge in Jamaica Plain. "The bars don't open up until 1 am, so people do the countdown with friends and family. We didn't start playing until 4 am. Before that, we spent New Year's Eve with a bunch of old ladies at some random bar. They were having a party and we accidentally walked in on it. They didn't say anything, so we didn't say anything. Next thing we know, they're bringing us tuna-fish sandwiches and champagne, and they taught us how to do a Belgian New Year's Eve kiss, which is a little scary. Then we lit off fireworks together. That's a universal thing that brings people together."
TDT can win the hearts of old ladies with charm (those kisses were of the on-the-cheek variety), but on the strength of their tunes, they've turned US army guys stationed in Honduras, Belgian ravers, and convicts (no shit, they played a Belgian prison, complete with inmates serving as roadies) into aficionados. That's an impressive track record of traversed cultural boundaries for a bunch of dudes in cowboy hats.
"Hats make the man," says bassist John Stump, who's worn a John Deere trucker hat to this interview. "Might not make him well, but they make the man. If you're a man of many hats, you can be a man of many personalities. If you put on the cowboy hat, or the John Deere hat, it makes you more country. If you wear a fedora, a bowler, or a top hat, you're not very country, or maybe you are, depending on how dusty and beat-up it is."
Pshaw! TDT would be way country even if they wore, like, Power Ranger helmets or something. They also retain their Celtic tint, even when they take a break from heavy drinking (as Byrnes forced himself to do post-tour — this was his eighth day on the wagon). Although Byrnes started TDT as a punk project, their traditionalist inclinations were evident. "Of our first five-song demo that was recorded over 10 years ago, the only song people clapped for was the country song," he recalls.
Like many of their neo-Americana contemporaries, TDT found it tricky to get proper booking. Byrnes continues, "We were forced to play the country bars, and we never wanted to do that. We aimed for the rock crowds, 'cause we're all people with rock backgrounds who happen to like country music. We printed up something like 10,000 flyers saying, "Let Three Day Threshold play!", and no one would book us. That Walk the Line movie was years away."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Back out at 8 PM and went back to bridge Street.. two other fly guys and one spinner. All three were there for a while before I arrived. No luck again for them or me. I walked up on top of the bridge and dropped my line in so I could see if anything was in there and saw no fish but did see tons of large squid from 10 to 12 inches long trying to take my fly. If the big girls could have known what feast they could have had it might have been interesting. So... next weekend.
Bridge Street--Chatham
Out at 5:30 this morning. Stopped by the light House and bumped into two local buddies having coffee..not fishing. Leon Long indicated that things were real slow..only alittle action in Oyster pond.Started casting with small clousers at Bridge Street on the early incoming.. not a good tide for there but I was there.. no luck. I went back to the car for a nap and woke at 8:30.. tide moving in strong now.. still no action. Bendan O'Brien drove by and we talked for a while and I went home to resume painting...so... not giving up and I will be back down there early evening to give it another shot. Will report later. Great to be down here and casting.

TUPELO – Ladies and gentleman, Conrad Birdie is in the building.
Tupelo Community Theatre presents "Bye Bye Birdie" next weekend at The Lyric. The musical comedy focuses on a 1950s rock star, Birdie (Clint Reid), who's just been drafted into the Army. With his star about to be shipped overseas, Conrad's agent, Albert Peterson (Jeff Houin), is nervous about the future. His secretary and girlfriend, Rose (Mary Frances Massey), plots a publicity stunt for Conrad: He'll give a kiss to an adoring fan before heading overseas.
"And hilarity ensues," said director Suzanne Oakley.
It's easy to create a believable Birdie in the birthplace of rock 'n' roll.
"We are using some traditional Elvis costuming and hairstyles," Oakley said. "Clint Reid does a good Elvis impersonation, and he has a velvety voice."
But Reid isn't the only one having fun.
"Bye Bye Birdie" is Houin's second time on the TCT stage. He also starred in "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee," but he's got a bigger role in "Birdie."
"(Albert) is a big mama's boy. He has no spine," he said.
He shares the stage with Allison Nichols, 15, who stars as Kim MacAfee, the girl chosen to get a smooch from Birdie.
"Kim is a typical 1950s teenager: She's boy crazy and she's a lot of fun to play," Nichols said. "It's a lot of fun to faint at least five times during the show."
Both actors are having fun bringing 1950s rock 'n' roll and fandom to the stage.
"It's a great show," Nichols said. "The cast and crew are working really hard, and the show's fantastic."
The story and music are fan favorites, Houin said, and that makes it fun to see.
"It's an oldie but a goodie," he said. "It's a good musical for springtime."

Once MDS treatment is finished, blood count checks and physical exams need to be performed on a regular basis to tell when treatment needs to be resumed. Treatment must begin again when blood counts decrease and/or bone marrow counts rise to dangerous levels. From time to time, bone marrow biopsy and aspirates should be given in addition to blood tests to see if the MDS is getting worse in a person who is not receiving treatment.
Rehabilitation Therapy
Medical treatments for hematologic malignancies can decrease a patient's strength and endurance and increase fatigue. Patients may find it difficult to complete basic daily activities, such as taking a shower or getting dressed. Walking or maintaining an active lifestyle may become a burden.
Memorial Sloan Kettering's physical and occupational therapists are knowledgeable about the medical treatments provided to patients with hematologic malignancies. They can help patients combat the side effects of treatment and of cancer by teaching them specific therapeutic exercises and energy-conservation techniques aimed at maintaining strength and endurance while decreasing fatigue in everyday life.
See Rehabilitation for further information about our services, including appointment information.
Help for Older Patients
A diagnosis of cancer is difficult at any age, but older patients face unique challenges. Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is committed to providing cancer patients aged 65 and older with the treatment, facilities, and support they need. This is especially important for people with MDS, since the average age of people with MDS is between 65 and 70 years of age.
Memorial Sloan Kettering offers the services of a multidisciplinary geriatric team, which includes physicians, clinical nurse specialists, social workers, nutritionists, and psychiatrists, as well as members of the Palliative Medicine Service and the Integrative Medicine Service. The programs and care the team provides focus on the needs of elderly cancer patients.
For more information about our services for older patients as well as for their family and friends, visit Help for Older Patients.
Integrative Medicine Service
The goal of our Integrative Medicine Service is to enhance cancer patients' quality of life through healing regimens that address the body, mind, and spirit. Beneficial complementary therapies include various types of massage, acupuncture, hypnotherapy, meditation, visualization and other mind-body therapies, music therapy, and nutritional counseling, as well as classes such as yoga, t'ai chi, and chair aerobics. Learn more about Integrative Medicine.
Counseling Center & Other Support Services
At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, we have learned that some people benefit from one-on-one counseling for issues that may be complicating their ability to adjust to MDS and its treatment. The Memorial Sloan Kettering Counseling Center offers this form of counseling. We also offer services to help people with their physical, spiritual, emotional, and practical concerns. For more information, visit Support Services
Access Information through Our Patient Portal
Memorial Sloan Kettering offers a secure website — called MYMSKCC — for patients to access personalized information about their care. If you enroll to use MYMSKCC, you can view, confirm, and keep track of appointments; access over 300 lab results; make changes to contact and insurance information; communicate with your healthcare team and other staff using secure electronic messages; and pay bills and view balances.

"We have enough youth. We need a fountain of SMART!"
Limewire is the best I've found.
Although I never heard of it and don't know what your talking about. Hell I don't even know how to use a keyboard...and what are these strange symbols on the buttons?
This announcement has been brought to you by a generous grant from the Ranting Jonna Foundation
"Helping to improve your life through nonsensical ravings for over 35 years"
Don't advocate, buuuuuuut:
1. Bit Torrent.
2. iTunes
3. Napster
4. Buying the CD?
"Woke up at 9.55am. Soon as I woke up, I looked at Suzanne and she looked at me. I said, 'Did I tell you about the immune system?' Suzanne starting laughing, I said, 'it's amazing.' She said, 'Not now.'"
I agree. Limewire, though unheard of by these ears, seems to be pretty good. The...uh...friends of mine who use it have never had a problem finding anything on it.
It's a blacked-out blur but I'm pretty sure it ruled.
I listen to streaming radio stations, and to the Music Choice channels on Comcast cable TV. If I hear something often enough that I like, I'll do more research. Many of the places that sell music have sound samples so I can get an idea whether I would want to buy the whole album. If it sounds really good, it can go on my 'to buy' list. If not, then maybe I can just buy the one song from iTunes or some other site that can sell individual songs.
I just recently bought a new iMac, so I can finally access the iTunes store. My old Mac was still running version 3 and didn't have the iTunes store feature. I think my brother said he uses Music Match or something like that. I believe it is subsciption based, so you can only listen to songs while you are subscribed, but for $5 a month to listen to whatever you want seems like a good deal.
I went on a bit of a spree my first week of looking through the iTunes store. I wanted to get enough new songs to try burning a CD. One of the disadvantages of iTunes is that the songs are in a protected AAC format. Apparently they don't play on other mp3 players besides iPods. The way around it is to burn them to an audio CD, and then rip the the songs back to the computer as mp3s. Not too big of a deal, but you can only fit about 80 minutes of music on the CD that way. If you make an mp3 CD, you can fit a lot more than that.
A lot of the bands that I am interested in will have a track or two to download for free. Also, if they have a new album out, sometimes you can stream the whole thing. If you like independent bands, I think www.epitonic.com has free downloads. I don't mind not being able to get free downloads of popular songs. Some get played so much you get sick of them. Many will be songs that you'll always be able to hear on the radio for years to come. If it is something that I like enough, I don't mind buying it. The songs by lesser known bands are what can become harder to come by over the years. Those are the artists that could use the sales more than someone who sells millions of records.
I use iTunes. I go through a $15 card real fast. I get one every three weeks or so, depending on how often i decide to create a new CD for myself. Lots of songs on there, my only complaint is that you only get a 30 second preview, sometimes thats not enough to determine whether a song is worth the 99 cents to me or not. But other than that no complaints, i dont have to worry about getting a virus or messed up song.

Thanks to all for your thoughts. I think anyone wondering about what to do should now have the info they need.
"We have enough youth. We need a fountain of SMART!"
Why not openly advocate it?
I would use itunes for everything except a lot of obscure stuff isn't available. P2P has a lot of professional stuff that wouldn't sell and amateur stuff as well that is a lot of fun. would anybody know wesley willis had it not been for the wild west that was file sharing? I doubt it.

I admit it may seem like overkill, but the spin-stoppers and the kite string have made a difference in my hunts. It is very frustrating when a gust of wind sends the decoy spinning like a top at just the wrong moment. A lot of times I don't need them (grass or other vegetation is high enough to touch the decoy tail), but they're nice to have when I do.
I actually don't use decoys that much on public ground for safety reasons. That's when #10 and #11 come in handy. My use of decoys on private land has decreased recently also (had a couple toms head out after after seeing decoys). I try to set up so that the bird is in range when I first see him (dog-leg of logging road, open spot within thicker vegetation, etc).
Just thought I would post some ideas that have helped me in the past.

Is it safe?
I have an aquarium that has had no fish in it for twenty days. I had an ich outbreak which killed all my fish. I'm getting a new betta tomorrow and was planning on putting him in my three gallon fluval that has no ich. But the tank that has been fishless for twenty days is five gallons and heavily planted. It's the tank I plan on moving him too once I know for sure all the ich is gone. The other tank is only three gallons. But would it be fine just to put him in the five gallon? Is twenty days without a fish host long enough to kill off all the ich?
You typically start to have bacteria die-off after 24 hours without a food source.
I would think that most (if not all) of the bacteria would be dead by now if you did not add any ammonia to the waterIf you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

This year I'm going to try Federals Prairie Storm for turkeys, and see if it performs as well as their Black Cloud does on ducks? It has the same load as their Mag Shock turkey load, same wad and copper plated lead + the flight control lead in with it. It's a little faster in FPS 1350, with the same load as the mag shock. If it performs as good as the black cloud with a IC choke in it, then it should work great for a Full or an XFull turkey choke, at about 1/2 the price, $20. for 25 compared to $15. for 10. for 3" 5's. Be interesting to see how it works.
Is any one shooting it for pheasants?

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Certain ions bouncing around on the ocean's surface and in droplets formed by waves may play a role in increasing ozone levels in the air we breathe, new research suggests.
These ions cover the surface of the sea in an ultra-thin blanket – about one-millionth the thickness of a sheet of paper. Researchers call this region the "interface."
Using a technique that employs highly accurate laser beams, chemists for the first time saw the actual structures formed by these halogen ions, or halides. They could see just how molecules of water surround these ions and also determine the halides' whereabouts within the interfacial area.
This kind of information can help researchers predict which halides are more likely to react with other chemicals and ultimately form ozone, a naturally occurring gas which enhances the upper atmosphere's defense against harmful ultraviolet rays.
"Interfacial halides have a significant effect on atmospheric chemistry which, in turn, could pose serious implications for respiratory health," said Heather Allen, the study's lead author and an assistant professor of chemistry at Ohio State University. The study appears in the current issue of the Journal of Physical Chemistry – B.
Scientists have noted increased ozone levels in urban areas near seawater, and suspect that halides may play a key role.
"In marine areas, halides can react with other molecules that form ozone and ultimately increase ozone production in nearby urban areas," Allen said.
While the ozone layer in the upper atmosphere is essential for shielding the earth from some solar radiation, high amounts of ozone in the lower atmosphere can cause serious respiratory problems.
In a series of laboratory experiments, Allen and her colleagues studied water structures created by three halides commonly found in the marine interfacial zone – chloride, bromide and iodide.
The researchers mixed each halide with water to create experimental interfacial zones. They then projected two beams of laser light onto each solution in an attempt to see the structure and location of each halide in the interface.
Allen said that while these kinds of pristine interfaces wouldn't be found on the ocean's surface, where many more chemicals are at play, knowing the concentration and structure of interfacial halides could help scientists better understand atmospheric chemistry.
"Studying liquid surfaces is difficult," Allen said. "They may look flat, but they're nowhere near flat on a molecular level. The addition of halides and other chemicals alters water's surface structure."
When mixed with water, halogen salts become halides – charged particles that, by nature, are unstable and are looking to combine with other elements in order to regain their stability. Two of these halides – iodide and bromide – like to combine with ozone-forming chemicals.
"Even though the halides are only one part of the chemical mix in the interface, we didn't really understand how important they were to atmospheric chemistry until we were able to separate out their individual characteristics," Allen said.
The researchers found that the concentrations of halides changed deeper into the interfacial layer. Iodide ions favored the surface of the interface, followed by bromide ions. Chloride ions were in abundance in the lower portion of the interface and did not affect the water's surface structure. By virtue of their position in the interface, the iodide and bromide may have a greater impact on the air we breathe.
"Iodide turned out to be the most important halide when it came to surface reactions, because it had the highest concentration at the interfacial surface," said Allen, adding that just a little iodide or bromide can influence ozone creation. Chloride appears to be less likely to do so.
"Halogens compete with other radicals that are normally used to create ozone," Allen said. "But when enough halogen radicals are available, they actually react faster than do other radicals.
She said the next step is to examine the actual reactions between the halides and non-halogen molecules near the sea surface to see if they can actually determine how much ozone is formed and where it's created in greatest quantities.
Allen conducted the study with fellow Ohio State researchers Dingfang Liu, Gang Ma and Lori Levering. The team received funding for this work from the National Science Foundation-funded Ohio State Environmental Molecular Science Institute and in part by Research Corporation, based in Tucson, Ariz.

In my visual experience Pac-Man came before Donald Judd, Carl Andre or even Mondrian. For me Broadway Boogie Woogie will always be an homage to Pac-Man. My current work explores the visual connection between minimalism and early video games. Video gaming and minimalism arrived at the same visual conclusion through different means and by opposite intentions. Early video gaming, or pixel-based imaging, did not intend to be simple or minimal. It intended to communicate as much visual information as possible. The problem was that the memory available to store that visual information was extremely limited. The images created in early video gaming were so simplified that out of context they are unreadable as representational images. Early video gaming images are, at best, abstractions. They are minimal for lack of technology. Minimalism on the other hand, created objects that were minimal by design and intention Minimalism intend to reduce the art object to its simplest form. Minimalist objects and images are based on formal ideas with no reference to image or outside narrative and have the appearance of a mass produced object. These two separate movements had quite opposite intentions with very similar visual results. My current work explores this connection between early pixel-based video game images. I limit my image making to the same constraints that governed early pixel based technologies. I use a minimal number
of squares to create an image. The images are formed into shaped steel canvases and are constructed using materials and techniques traditionally used to build minimalist sculpture. Unlike the minimalist art object my objects are image based and lack a perfect finish. The paint appearance acknowledges ideas and movements that preceded these objects, but also distinguishes them from those same ideas and movements, resulting in a pixel-based abstraction. -Michael Whiting, 2012 Since receiving his MFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY in May of 2002, Mike Whiting has developed a substantial profile as a contemporary artist of our times through his solo exhibitions at Plus Gallery, numerous group exhibitions across the US including the major art markets of NYC and LA, and a number of monumental commissioned works across the country in the public realm including Denver's iconic "Rhino" sculpture at the intersection of Larimer and Broadway. Whiting was awareded a second place award in the 2008 annual Colorado Springs exhibition "Art on the Streets," by juror Adam Lerner, the current director of the MCA Denver. Whiting's most recent Colorado exhibition was the four-person show "Suburbia," presented at by GOCA in Colorado Springs. His first major solo museum exhibiton of monumental outdoor works "8-Bit Modern" commenced in 2012 at the BYU Museum of Art, where it will remain on view through the summer of 2014. Whiting's work has been placed in numerous collection both throughout Denver and the US.

By Michaela Gibson Morris/NEMS Daily Journal
TUPELO – Mayoral candidate Fred Pitts formally kicked off his campaign Thursday morning with the help of his supporters.
The Tupelo businessman, who represents Ward 2 and serves as city council president, pledged to "Advance Tupelo."
"In the last 3 1/2 years, we've done a lot to turn Tupelo around," said the Republican, who has lived in Tupelo since 1969.
Pitts plans to stay the course with a few adjustments.
"The major thing is that we have to continue to revitalize our neighborhoods and our city," Pitts said, commending the work of Mayor Jack Reed Jr., who is not seeking a second term, and his colleagues on the Tupelo City Council. "I certainly intend to take that ball and run with it."
Pitts laid out three key priorities for his work if he is elected to serve:
• Making Tupelo city services more user-friendly for individuals and businesses.
• Encouraging business growth.
• Continuing to clean up and revitalize neighborhoods.
"This is probably the single most important thing we've done in four years," Pitts said about neighborhood revitalization. "We need to continue."
To date, Pitts is the only candidate who has qualified to run for mayor in Tupelo. The deadline for candidates to qualify is March 8.
Pitts said he is planning ahead for if he gets an opponent and he plans to open a campaign office at Crosstown on Feb. 19.
He is raising money to cover campaign expenses. Any money not used for the campaign will be held in escrow for four years and then donated to a Tupelo charity, Pitts said.

Binghamton University, Broome Community College to host addiction treatment conference
The School of Education and Human Development at Binghamton University and the Division of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the Division of Academic Affairs of Broome Community College, will host the "Treating Addictions in Special Populations: Research Confronts Reality" conference on October 7 and 8 in the Binghamton Regency Conference Center, located at 1 Sarbro Square in Binghamton, New York.
The conference will bring together researchers, educators, policy-makers and service-providers to address issues that have emerged for individuals of special populations affected by substance-related disorders and addictions. Over 225 participants from across the world are expected to attend coming from as far afield as Denmark and the United Kingdom.
The focus of the conference is to bring research findings into practice and identify successful treatment programs. Treatment models presented will specifically target special populations and their distinct needs, as opposed to the current trend in which treatment delivery is driven by the reimbursement system.
The conference will begin at 8:30 a.m. Monday, October 7, with a keynote address by Gary Lawson, professor of clinical psychology and family studies at Alliant International University. Lawson will provide a framework of treating addictions in special populations by focusing on assessment guidelines.
Morning workshop sessions are scheduled to run from 10:15 a.m. to noon featuring topics such as community awareness campaigns, older adults and substance abuse, and abuse treatment techniques using creative arts.
The luncheon keynote address will feature Gerard J. Connors, director of the Research Institute on Addictions, State University of New York at Buffalo, who will discuss interventions with heavily drinking women and rural residents.
Afternoon workshop sessions, which run from 2 to 5:30 p.m., include discussion on substance abuse services for women and gambling prevention projects.
The breakfast keynote address on Tuesday, October 8, will be delivered at 8:45 a.m. by Sheila B. Blume, clinical professor of psychiatry, State University of New York at Stony Brook, on the evolution of treatment for addictions in special populations.
Morning workshop sessions, scheduled to run from 10:15 to noon, include topics such as using intense exercise programs to promote change in brain chemistry, and issues relating to drug treatment courts.
The luncheon keynote address will feature Kathleen Tavenner Mitchell, national spokesperson and program director for the National Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, who will speak about fetal alcohol syndrome and its implications for treatment.
Afternoon workshop sessions will run from 2:45 to 4:15 p.m. and include discussion on the treatment of gay, lesbian and bisexual substance abusers, and treatment in criminal justice populations.
The closing session, scheduled to begin at 4:15 p.m., is titled "Searching for Common Ground: Drug Policy Reform, Harm Reduction and Traditional Addiction." John de Miranda, executive director of the National Association on Alcohol, Drugs and Disability, will moderate the discussion.
The conference is sponsored by the School of Education and Human Development, and the Decker School of Nursing at Binghamton University, the Division of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the Division of Academic Services at Broome Community College, the National Institute on Drug Abuse Special Populations Office, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, the Research Institute on Addictions at the State University of New York at Buffalo, and the Haworth Pres, Inc.
Costs are $185 for the entire conference or $135 for one-day attendance. For more information, contact the Office of Professional Development and Research at 607-777-4447 or via e-mail: email@example.com.

On June 9, Bates College Museum of Art opens its "Green Horizons" exhibition — a six-month project, exploring the intersection of art, science, pedagogy, and the notions of sustainability and environmental engagement.
The show, including work by artists such as Alexis Rockman and Agnes Denes alongside local artists like Beehive Collective and Christina Bechstein, raises the stakes both for what an art institution might do to leverage its tools and its potential to produce impacts outside the world of art and visual culture, and for what a museum can do with its role at the intersection of academic community and civic life.
The Portland Phoenix caught up with Bates College Museum of Art director Mark Bessire to find out more about the "Green Horizons" project and its aims.
Architect Sim Van der Ryn has argued against letting "sustainability" be a resting place — instead he advocates a shift in thinking in the direction of what he calls "surpassability:" the design of systems, interactions, and structures that are forms of life, truly able to evolve, where the operative idea would not be efficiency or productivity but health. "Green Horizons" seems to work on this kind of scale.
This project is co-curated by a team including myself, Anthony Shostak and Bill Low. In order to tackle a project with so many commissions and new works we understood from the beginning that it had to be a more organic process and that we as museum "professionals" needed to secede our normal excessive control needs to the artists and the process. So in a way "surpassability" would be a good description. As a museum we are prepared for every visit to the museum to be different as the work changes and the site-specific works like Seitu Jones and professor Kim Ruffin's collard green garden will literally grow as summer beckons. Part of our philosophy is to be less linear and controlling, so this exhibition was an excellent opportunity to challenge traditional museum control issues. It's a big risk for us, but the potential returns are monumental for our audience as we become more of a laboratory than a mausoleum.

Its nice to see that Advogato is still around. Hopefully it will recognize me as a trusted user again soon so I can syndicate items from my blog (which I don't update nearly enough).
In recent news, I have graduated from Stevens Tech and now I'm working as a software developer at Vonage. Its a great place to work at and I've been learning a lot. My primary development work has been using Ruby on Rails, which is an absolute pleasure to work with.
Hopefully I'll have enough spare time soon to be able to work on some open source projects again. I haven't had nearly enough time to work on anything else except things for work. I'd love to work on some stuff for Ubuntu, or for some of the Ruby projects that I have been taking advantage of.

Discussion on the City of Washington's 175th anniversary began Tuesday night. At a meeting sponsored by the Washington Chamber of Commerce and the Tourism Committee, community members shared ideas on how to celebrate the anniversary in 2014, with suggestions ranging from holding monthly events to focusing on a single week of activities.
Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Michelle Pieffer says that while nothing was set in stone, they found people interested in being a part of the core development team that will work on organizing the celebration. She adds the new committee hasn't been formed yet, and asks anyone that's interested to call the chamber office.

The above advert for a restaurant (new?) called Angelo's caught my eye in the Saturday Express. Ariapita Avenue is the main culinary artery for dining in and around Port-of-Spain and it really is amazing how many restaurants it seems able to contain! I think I"ll have to check them out, especially as Tiramisu is currently my Häagen Dazs flavour of choice (for reasons that will be posted in the near future 😉 ).
If you've eaten at Angelo's why not leave a comment to let me and others know your thoughts/opinion, etc.

Position papers: Cuyahoga Falls mayor
Don Robart (incumbent) vs. Don Walters
Voters living in Cuyahoga Falls will vote for one candidate for mayor in the Nov. 5 General Election. The information provided below was submitted by the candidates, with their responses to our questions printed as submitted.
Don Robart (incumbent)
Political affiliation: Republican
Why are you running for mayor?
"Since January 1, 1986, the city has seen much progress. The merger with Northampton became effective on that date, along with it, great expectations for what was formerly The Township water lines, sewer lines, electric lines, new residential, industrial and commercial development were accomplished as seamlessly as possible. Development along the river with the Sheraton, LeFevers (now the Burntwood Tavern), Town Centre and the Watermark, make this area a bustling enterprise. And of course, the miracle of activities at Falls River Square accentuate the commercial livelihood of the area, and to these things a new Natatorium, and Fire Station #5, one can easily see that we have been very busy. There is still much to do.
"The State Road Shopping Center had deteriorated over time until it was only 30 percent occupied and was fast becoming an eyesore. In October of 2007, I had to make a decision to purchase the structure through eminent domain, or forever miss that opportunity. Today, we are under construction on a $60 million center that promised to bring over 600 jobs to the area and significantly increase tax dollars to both the city and the schools.
"With the removal of the dams on the Cuyahoga River, opportunities for growth along the river are flourishing. Enhanced recreational activities in conjunction with our South Front Street plan will preserve and enhance the characteristics of the area.
"It is my fervent desire to continue to lead this renaissance."
What would be your top three priorities if you were re-elected? Why?
"Due to the economy we have been mired in for the past seven years, maintaining and a disciplined budget, must be a priority. We have accomplished that through cost-cutting measures that have proved successful merging departments, reducing personnel through attrition, moving departments to the County and eliminating non-essential expenditures have left our city with the highest general fund balance in its history. Coupled with our very enviable AA2 Bond Rating, and one can realize we have been cautious in our spending.
"Going forward, this goal is not going to get easier. Cut backs in State funding through tangible personal property tax, local government fund and estate tax, along with the loss of revenue on interest and reducing property taxes all add up to challenges in the future.
"A second challenge is to continue and even expand upon our economic development plans. The advent of Portage Crossing is simply the foundation on which to build many other opportunities are now coming forth as design plans for this center begin to become a reality. The downtown and entire Riverfront area are now providing outstanding opportunities for recreational and economic activities.
"And finally, changes are certainly on the horizon for the Cuyahoga Falls school system. It is time that we begin the process of moving to the 7-12 campus on the 50 acres at Portage Trail and 13th Street. Our current aging high school is overdue to be replaced and I stand with our superintendent in moving our community in that direction."
Don Walters
Political affiliation: Democrat
Why are you running for mayor?
"As a veteran Councilperson, I have seen a rash of new problems developing in our city. When the housing bubble burst and the economy took a sharp downturn, I witnessed an increase in distressed properties, vacant businesses, and a sharp uptick in crime. These problems were treated as if they were a sign of the times, and nothing was done at city hall to address them. The problems have multiplied due to lack of attention from the top and I intend to aggressively reverse this disturbing trend. I know that I can do a better job and it is time to set the bar high for our community — to demand more of each other and to work together for a more prosperous Cuyahoga Falls."
What would be your top three priorities if you took office? Why?
"My number one priority reflects what I hear most frequently when speaking to residents as I go door-to-door and that is working for safe neighborhoods and a peace of mind. My administration will implement several innovative programs to help combat crime and keep our streets safe. I commit to keeping all fire stations open 365 days a year, ensure full staffing of our safety forces, establish a 'CF 911' Citywide Alarm Monitoring Program and a 'Cuyahoga Falls Crime Fighters' Hotline.
"Secondly, my administration will look to job growth and economic development that makes sense and focuses on projects that attract good-paying jobs and benefit Falls families directly. I plan on accomplishing this by creating a 'Shop Locally' Incentive Program, insist on above-board economic development while reducing costs and stimulating job growth by 'Going Green.'
"Lastly, none of this can be accomplished without collaboration that works for all of our families. In this day and age, city leaders need to be able to work in a spirit of cooperation. I will work together with the leaders within our own city and those of neighboring communities and the county to advance projects that benefit us all, saving taxpayer dollars in the process.
"I have a full blueprint that will bring more opportunity to our city including the reintroduction of the senior snow program, further engagement of our youth and a reinvestment plan in our community. I encourage you to visit my website, www.WaltersForMayor.com, or call me at (330) 212-6127 to learn more."

London's Voices
Speak to Two Souls—Who thus Reply:
- IN all my work, in all the children's play,
- I hear the ceaseless hum of London near;
- It cries to me, I cannot choose but hear
- Its never‐ending wail, by night and day.
- So many millions—is it vain to pray
- That all may win such peace as I have here,
- With books, and work, and little children dear?—
- That flowers like mine may grow along their way?
- Through all my happy life I hear the cry,
- The exceeding bitter cry of human pain,
- And shudder as the deathless wail sweeps by.
- I can do nothing—even hope in vain
- That the bright light of peace and purity
- In those lost souls may ever shine again!
- 'Mid pine woods' whisper and the hum of bees
- I heard a voice that was not bee nor wood:
- 'Here, in the city, Gold has trampled Good.
- Come thou, do battle till this strife shall cease!'
- I left the mill, the meadows and the trees,
- And came to do the little best I could
- For these, God's poor; and, oh, my God, I would
- I had a thousand lives to give for these!
- What can one hand do 'gainst a world of wrong?
- Yet, when the voice said, 'Come!' how could I stay?
- The foe is mighty, and the battle long
- (And love is sweet, and there are flowers in May),
- And Good seems weak, and Gold is very strong;
- But, while these fight, I dare not turn away.

Community mourns death of former police chief
Police: Chief slowing down as emergency crews worked to clear another crash
MILTON, Wis. - The Milton community is mourning former Police Chief Terry Hawkins.
Hawkins died after being involved in a multi-car pile up on the interstate south of Janesville. The state patrol said he was slowing down as emergency crews worked to clear another crash.
Friends are remembering Hawkins as kind man who they said when folks asked him how he was doing his usual response was "just peachy." Three orange barrels on the overpass above I-39/90 now mark the spot of the horrific crash that claimed Hawkins' life.
"He hired me and was someone I always looked up to and was thankful to," said Lt. John Conger with the Milton Police Department.
Hawkins, 61, was killed just after 10:30 p.m. Thursday when his vehicle was rear-ended.
The crash happened near mile marker 178, south of Janesville.
Friends said Hawkins was a huge baseball fan and was on his way home from a Beloit Snappers game.
Conger worked with Hawkins for 13 years.
"It was a very easy environment to work with or work in with Terry. He almost always had a smile on his face, and a joke to tell or a funny story, and that's the type of environment people like to work in." Conger said.Community mourns death of former police chief
Hawkins served as Milton's police chief from 1990-2004. Even though he didn't grow up in Milton, Hawkins remained in the community and was regularly seen at local events.
Most recently the city's Fourth of July celebration.
"Not everybody that's here now knew who he was but just the fact that he is the father of one of our co workers, everybody is aware of the situation and what happened. It's a very somber day here," said Deputy Fire Chief Chris Lukas.
Milton's former fire chief, now Deputy Chief Chris Lukas said he enjoyed working with Hawkins. He said the chief's easy going nature brought the community together.
"I give him a lot of credit. He was probably one of the people who really improved the working relationship between the police and fire departments," said Lukas.
Friends said Hawkins will be missed but his legacy will live on. His son and daughter-in-law are members of the Milton Fire Department.
"[Hawkins was] always active in the community, passionate about law enforcement and we're proud of his family too because they're carrying on the legacy of public service and safety," Conger said.
Milton's mayor has ordered all flags at half staff in honor of the former chief. Funeral services are still pending for Hawkins.
A visitation will be held on Thursday from 4-8 p.m. at Albrecht's Funeral Home at 828 South Janesville St. in the City of Milton.
Additional services will be held on Friday at Milton High School with an additional visitation from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m., with funeral services immediately following. The high school is located at 114 West High St.
Following the services there will be a processional to Junction Cemetery on North John Paul Road for the burial. A community gathering to remember Hawkins will follow the burial service. The location for the gathering has not been finalized.

UT booster reveals more Saban call details
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A top University of Texas booster who arranged a telephone conversation with Alabama coach Nick Saban's agent says the talk lasted 45 minutes.
Tom Hicks, who also is a former University of Texas System regent, told the Austin American-Statesman this week that he and Regent Wallace Hall Junior probed agent Jimmy Sexton on whether Saban would be interested in the Longhorns' football coaching job. Hicks said Hall also insisted on participating in the call last January.
The call was first reported last week by The Associated Press.
Hicks lunched with Mack Brown two days after the Sexton conversation and asked if he had considered retirement. Hicks told the American-Statesman Brown "had a passion for wanting to say." In Hicks words, "I said, 'Mack, I'm glad to hear this passion.'"

I hope I am not bringing up a question that is already answered, if it has, a point in the right direction would be appreciated, but in all my searching I can't seem to find my exact answer to my question.
I have fully functioning MMO with client/server communication. Players download the client obviously, and the server is located remotely (currently controlled only by me) an an Amazon AWS server.
So my basic is question is this. Players create their account for my game from within the client (email, username, password, etc), store this on the server (currently encrypted on the client using a simple XOR encryption, then sent to the server ). And now of course I am looking to now finally make this packet encryption more legitimate and professional.
While researching this, I find people asking similar questions, but I see them jumping right into terms like already having "SSL encryption", sending "salts" and "hashing" the data, but I need to know where to begin from step 1. I am not finding a step-by-step general procedure for beginning to encrypt packets, and figuring out which method I should be doing. It seems like this is more complicated than just writing some simple algorithms and hashing data.
I am attempting to make my game secure enough so that if I do start charging money for the game, or just make the game go "live", I can tell my players "Your login information is secure". I am not interested in dealing with any real money account information at this point. Just one step at a time.
I am basically looking for a guideline of where to start with this. The simplest answer is basically what I am looking for. My game is currently communicating with Winsock, and for now is going to be windows platform specific. Coded in C++.
Should I just look into using something like OpenSSL and go from there?

By Lena Mitchell/NEMS Daily Journal
CORINTH – Junior Auxiliary Corinth this year honored as its 2013 Outstanding Citizen a woman whose life has exemplified community service and dedication to children.
Mary Dee Kemp was honored at Saturday's Charity Ball, surrounded by family members and dozens of well-wishers.
Among the many reasons supporters gave to recognize Kemp are her 20 years as a teacher in the Alcorn County School District, as well as her founding of the First Presbyterian Day School in the 1970s. The lasting impact of her work is still influencing the lives of children and families for those who receive their earliest training in that program.
She also has mentored younger generations of teachers through her work with the Croft Institute at the University of Mississippi, through which she visited China to further and promote Asian studies in American schools, and former Gov. Haley Barbour appointed Kemp as a state educational task force member.
Kemp founded The Friendship Class in 1990 to provide special-needs adults with enrichment and recreational programs, a project she continues to lead.
Her more recent projects include helping to organize and revive the Corinth Home Tour and art auction to raise money for preservation of the historic Verandah Curlee House Museum.
