You still find plenty of Southern fried chicken and fatback-infused turnip greens in the Mississippi Delta, a pancake-flat floodplain that has been called "the most Southern place on Earth." But those classic dishes represent just half the culinary story here; the rest emerges in such quirky regional preps as fried dill pickles and catfish pâté, served in eateries as individual as the three vintage Southern towns they call home.
Greenwood Long
Before native son Fred Carl, Jr., founded the Viking Range Corporation and brought stainless-steel cooking appliances to this faded cotton town, there was Lusco's. This former grocery store on the wrong side of the tracks is as famous for its old-Delta ambience as its food. Diners sit in curtained booths—a holdover from Prohibition days—and push buzzers to summon servers, who invariably recommend the evergreen house specials: hubcap-size steaks and whole pompano fish broiled in a tangy, buttery sauce. For almost as long, the Crystal Grill has packed in families and business folk for its fried chicken, Delta tamales, yeast rolls, and mile-high meringue pies. Looking for edible souvenirs? The Mississippi Gift Company tempts hungry shoppers with such must-haves as muscadine and hot pepper jelly, cheese straws, and caramel cakes.
The town where a young Riley B. King—better known as B.B.—once chopped cotton is now home to the B.B. King Blues Museum and Delta Interpretive Center. The blues legend returns periodically to jam at nearby Club Ebony, the 1940s-established club he played in early on—and now owns. Tuck into a favorite local pairing: batter-fried pork chops and beer. Indianola is also catfish country. At the Crown, a café and giftshop, fillets are flaked into salads, baked in gratins, and smoked for award-winning pâtés. Nola, a bistro in a repurposed movie theater, serves catfish sliders. Pea Soup's Lott-A-Freeze, a beloved little dairy bar, sells catfish po'boys along with tamales, baskets of fried seafood, and topless "floating" burgers drenched in chili. On weekends, a rollicking music club and restaurant called the Blue Biscuit puts on "redneck fish fries," which include plenty of catfish, along with pulled-pork barbecue and co-owner Harlon's famous hush puppies. Chef/owner Trish Berry also devises recipes for fresh pecans sold at the nearby Indianola Pecan House and rents refurbished shotgun bungalows to visitors.
Most of the action in this tiny, weathered Delta town happens in three institutions. Crawdad's, a sprawling eatery adorned with taxidermied critters, draws a repeat clientele with shrimp étouffée, charcoal-grilled steaks, and fresh crawfish in season. The award-winning McCartys pottery studio, in a former mule barn surrounded by lush gardens, also runs the Gallery Restaurant, which serves Junior League–style luncheons, with corn bread and iced tea, on signature clay dishes. And Po' Monkey's is an outlier both geographically (on a dusty road a mile out of town) and in spirit. Farmer Willie Seaberry transformed a sharecropper shack into one of the last authentic juke joints, making this the place to be on Thursday evenings for old-school tunes, informal eats, and beer from a cooler—Delta-style nightlife in one of its purest forms.

For the week of September 21st
tember 21st - Digestion Day
Potash lowers 2009 profit outlook
The market begins the week digesting the weekend's news tidbits. Last Friday, after the close, Potash (POT), the world's largest producer of potash, guided lower for its 2009 full year profit. The original forecast called for an earnings range of $4 to $5. However, the target is now $3.25 to $3.75. This is critical due to the heavy ownership by mutual funds and hedge funds. Expect the entire "Ag" space to come under pressure early Monday.
Also late Friday, the IMF approved the sale of 403.3 metric tons of gold. That translates into about 13 billion George Washingtons to lend to poorer nations. Maybe China buys the entire block. The G20 meeting begins in Pittsburgh on Thursday. Clearly, the Obama Administration is playing nice and sharing its toys with the rest of the kiddies in the global sandbox. The IMF, which is the world's third largest holder of gold behind the U.S. and Germany, possesses 3,217 tons of gold. This sale translates into selling an eighth of its holdings.
Tuesday-Wednesday September 22 & 23 - FOMC Meeting
Last week, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke proclaimed that the recession is probably over. My take is that it ended somewhere around the 4th of July. Next up, the Fed meeting this week. Expect no change to the Fed Funds Rate. However, expect the FOMC to, at the very least, acknowledge that the economy has turned the corner and is steadily improving. Basically, the training wheels are off and the economy is pedaling on its own. Federal Reserve support of risky asset prices, as a buyer of last resort, will begin to dramatically slow to an eventual halt.
Thursday September 24 - Existing Home Sales
The housing market has stabilized from its dramatic decline over the past 12 months. Further improvement can be expected and supported on Thursday with Existing Home Sales and Friday with New Home Sales. I like to look at Existing for the better view on improvement. Last month's report showed an increase in July at an annual rate of 5.24 million homes. This month, the August numbers should show an increase to 5.35 million units, according to analysts surveyed by Reuters. Last month showed a 7.2% increase, month-on-month. This month, analysts expect a 2.1% jump, month-on-month. For me, the most important aspect of the Existing Home Sales report is INVENTORY. Remember how high that number was a few months back? 11.5 months of inventory. We are down to 9.4 months of inventory. A seven month supply is the target and we are getting very close.
Friday September 25 - Durable Good Orders
This is a BIGGIE, HUGE. August Durable Good Orders release. Analysts are looking for a 0.5% increase. Last month we jumped 4.9%. The improvement in the new order portion of the ISM will be supported by a good Durable Good Order figure, and will provide insight toward this quarter's GDP.
Lennar, KB Home, and RIMM Debt Sales
Tuesday $43 billion in two years
Wednesday $40 billion in five years
Thursday $29 billion in seven years

Arsenal Ladies shrugged off jet lag to don their boots for a first training session on Japanese soil on Saturday.
At what would have been 1am back home, the Ladies sought to convince creaking limbs it was time to play football at the Urawa Red's training complex in Reds Land, Saitama.
Joining Laura Harvey's team in their preparations for Wednesday's curtain raiser against INAC Kobe was Japan youth international Kumi Yokoyama.
18-year-old Kumi, who trained with the Gunners' youth side earlier this month in London, became the latest in a clutch of talented young Japanese players to practise with the Ladies.
Winner of last year's prestigious FIFA Puskas Award, for her wonder goal against Korea DPR in the semi-finals of the 2010 Women's World Cup, the youth star swapped practise with her Jumonji High School team for some time with the Gunners, and manager Harvey was impressed with what she saw:
"Kumi joined in our session today, and did really well to be fair," said Harvey.
"We knew she was a good player already of course, from her performances in last year's Under-17 World Cup and her previous sessions with our youth team at Colney – and she certainly kept up with the rest of the squad today.
"She even got herself a couple of goals against Emma [Byrne], who's a top-drawer international keeper, so it went well! I'm sure she has a bright future ahead of her."
The Gunners enjoyed a warm welcome from the Urawa Red's Ladies team after their session.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

By your favorite high school columnist Ann Medusa Krinsky!!!!!
It's valentines again, big whoop. I will probably get carnations in homeroom and they will definitely be from just friends. I'll get a bunch of candy because duh I have four parents. I'm going to the dance with OH TAKE A WILD GUESS just a friend and I might as well cut my long hair off and see if anyone even notices.
Omigod what if I did.
Last weekend I went on a temple youth group retreat in Minnesota with Craig and made this girl Dara cry because I guess Craig kissed her recently or something. But then Craig and I are obviously so obviously together the entire weekend holding hands and hugging and Craig sitting on my lap. I pretty much made sure l was just like how Becky used to be with Craig at camp, and how Craig's best girl friends are always so powerful you can't possibly compete. He always has the prettiest girls as "best friends" and if you like him you can't be pissed because they're just friends. It sucks big time when you're the new person that likes him (So sad too bad Dara), but it is magnificent when you finally get to be number one best friend like me.
But secretly this is the truth. I've spent many years making Craig like me and he just goes and kisses Dara because he wanted to. WHAT THE HELL? She never even tried and just appears one day as a Freshman, and he just goes and kisses her without her waiting for three years. Even if I had the power all weekend at a temple in Minnesota and made her cry with how amazingly close Craig and I are, she lives there in his real life and he kissed her just like that. She's just like Marni and like every other boring girl in America. Except Ann Krinsky who waits so patiently for her turn and has to sleep on a board all summer after he practically broke you from giving him piggy back rides, and that he still hasn't kissed.
Happy Valentine's Day.
Now there's one thing I feel a tiny bit bad about. I invited Brad to the retreat and told him it was gonna be rad. Then I never talked to him or looked at him unless Craig's arm was around me or he was braiding my hair. But remember, Brad rejected me for Carrie. Brad was one of the nerds turned cool that liked me when he was a nerd and then he got the lead in the musical and I liked him and we were together, and then we were making out on the couch and I told him how much I liked him and he ran out of the room like I was Medusa. He had a lame time at the retreat, but whatever he could've met some friends. I don't know why he was just asleep in his sleeping bag by like 11:00 pm. Sorry Brad. If you didn't treat me like a reject I would've been holding your hand and making Craig jealous during silent prayer.
That's life in the big city as they say.
Before you start feeling so sad and imagining my funeral and how much everyone would miss me CRAIG and sob because they missed their chance CRAIG, and before you OOPS Brad upside the head I said OOPS upside your head for running out of the room like I was Medusa, I'm also in love with Joey. But I cannot even talk about that today because he is my brother's camp friend and everyone is in love with him and he confuses my brain even more than Craig because he is in college. It is too real what we have and I cannot discuss it. I just can't. Don't ask me. Well, fine, but only in person if you sleep over next weekend. If you ever stop being grounded for calling your Mom a Jackass.
So Happy Valentine's day from the forever never have a real boyfriend and always have to talk about boys at camp that you people probably think do not even exist, and practically don't if you have to wait three years until they finally might kiss you because they sort of have to, and then run from the room like you are Medusa.
I'm going to go gnaw on my over-sized Hershey Kiss Valentine. I've got it down to almost a circle but I still can't fit the whole thing in my mouth. Goodbye.
On Valentine's Day the series "Battleground" premiers on Hulu. This is the show made by my extremely successful once-high school theater cohorts—neither Brad nor Craig nor Joey–and that I did a small role for (not until episode 8). You can read about the Madison connections here and how I play against type, and watch the trailer right here:
If you're local, The Brink Lounge is screening the premier episode free to the public 2/14 at 7pm. See you there!

For someone who didn't start dancing until early high school, France (Mayotte) Hunter has certainly experienced her share of success. The Wisconsin native fell in love with dance as a teenager after watching the film The Red Shoes about a woman so obsessed with the role she is preparing that she dances herself to death. "There was something so romantic about it," Hunter says. Once she started, she never stopped and since then has danced her way through life as an actress, model, teacher and movement and executive coach.
ON HER NAME: "I'm kind of the odd one in my family. All of my other siblings were blond and blue-eyed. They thought they'd give me an odd name, I guess."
HER BIG BREAK: After completing her M.F.A. in Los Angeles, Hunter packed up for New York en route to an open audition for dancers for a movie. It was 1979, and the legendary Twyla Tharp was choreographing the film adaptation of the musical Hair. "It was just myself and a few thousand dancers in the city," Hunter says with a laugh. "I was newly in New York, so I didn't know what to expect or even to be nervous because I just needed a job." She landed it and went on to dance with Tharp's touring troupe for three years.
BROADWAY BABY: Following the birth of her first son, Hunter landed the role of Consuelo in the Broadway revival of West Side Story – every dancer's dream, she says – and later reprised her role in the Paris production.
ON DANCERS: "Dancers are extraordinary people. They have to be very disciplined, and they really have to be looking at themselves all the time. It's a personal journey of self-discovery. There's no downtime in that."
KEEPING THE ARTS RELEVANT: Hunter, who spends her spare moments teaching mind/ body integration to executives at corporations like People magazine and the Home Shopping Network, calls herself a crusader for the arts: "It's crucial because they're in great jeopardy of becoming extinct. I think we have to keep working really hard at keeping the arts vital. Everybody's engaged in the creative process in some way or another – we're all creative."

Sugarhouse Streetcar Line will go on Eleventh East, Despite Protests
A narrow vote, on a controversial issue, from the Salt Lake City Council Tuesday night.
Council members voted 4-3, to install the next section of the Sugarhouse streetcar line on Eleventh East.
The decision comes despite vocal opposition from residents and business owners along the street, who asked the city to pursue its second option instead -- to extend the line eastward, on 21st South.
City officials say, because funding is not yet available, ground is not expected to be broken on the rail tracks construction for at least five years.

Jessup International Moot Court Competition at Law School
Wayne State University Law School is pleased to serve as the host for the North Central Regional Tournament of the Phillip C. Jessup International Moot Court Competition, February 17-19, 2006.
The Jessup competition simulates a case before the International Court of Justice (World Court). Teams from around the world compete. The topic to be argued this year deals with multinational corporations and human rights issues.
A dozen law schools from Michigan and Ohio will compete over three days at Wayne State for the chance to appear at the Jessup international round in Washington, D.C. in late March.
"The Jessup is the world's premiere moot court competition," said Professor Greg Fox, of the WSU Law School who coaches the Wayne Jessup team. "Many well-known international lawyers got their start in the field by participating in the Jessup." He added, "It's really an honor for Wayne to serve as host of this competition."
The competition will begin Friday afternoon at 4:30 and continue with rounds on Saturday at 9:30 a.m., 1 p.m., and 4 p.m. Each round lasts about 90 minutes. The semi-finalists will present their arguments on Sunday morning at 9:30; the final round will take place Sunday at 12:30 p.m., with the awards ceremony taking place at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon. The public is invited to watch the rounds of competition at the Law School, 471 W. Palmer St., Detroit, MI 48202.
For more information, or to volunteer, please contact Pamela Morgan email@example.com or visit http://www.law.wayne.edu/current/lawschool_calendar.html

You know you're a big player at a major trade show - or at least you have a lot of money to waste - when the hall itself is bedecked in your gigantic, obnoxious banners. We're nowhere near this rarefied stratum yet, but we can dream. And we hope you can, too, because we don't have any idea what we would do with one of those spaces anyway. Take a look at these examples of on-site advertising for the Consumer Electronics Show (scroll down a little for pics) and...
Show us your idea for a giant Woot convention banner.
Post your entry here by 11:59 AM (central) on Monday, October 19, 2009. Prizes are $20/$50/$100 for 3rd/2nd/1st. The rules and criteria for winning: our panel of volunteer judges can and will make stuff up as it goes along. Use Photoshop, linoleum blocks, pastels, MSPaint, cave painting, tattoos, tribal scarification, whatever, but it'll only be judged if it's visible in our forums as a jpg, gif, or png. As we are fond of saying, try to keep your maximum width to 550px. If you need a place to host your pictures, try www.imageshack.ws or www.photobucket.com. We have no connection to either, but they seem free and easy to use. And if you want us to be sure your entry was indeed your work, post links to your source images. The more sure we are that you did your own work, the more likely we are to consider it for a prize.
Thanks, Amy, for the theme suggestion!

Great Job!
I say forget banners...there's hundreds of them hanging at these conventions and nobody really pays any attention to them. Woot needs something really attention grabbing that's not been done yet. I propose the following.
Hand out this t-shirt to all people entering the convention
(and have them at the booth to give away, too):
(click image for larger view)
Then you have reps walking around with random carp to give away to random people wearing the t-shirt. You're getting people's attention because the advertising for your booth is ON them instead of AROUND them. Plus there is a potential payoff to the wearer in the form of getting cool free carp.
And even if they never get a prize, they got a free shirt and they'll remember woot. And -- what does woot have plenty of that they can give away?! T-shirts and carp!! It's a win/win situation for everyone.
We arrived at the convention hall all giddy with excitement. First stop...the parking lot.
There wasn't much space left in the Woot lot...
So we headed on over to the 'Premium Reserved' lot. There was plenty of room there.
Does Honorable Mention count?
sadly, I've little time for chopping this week, but if I did ... I've have the big generic Woot banner, and in front of it, there'd be a big inflatable "I Want One" button with someone jumping up and down on it trampoline style. Woot, you have good medical insurance for your convention workers, don't you?
Big enough for you?

an inflatable "I Want One" bouncer... that truly is genius, and something they could probably get custom made and installed in the office lobby for less than the price of a big convention banner.
heck, get a whole lot of them made up in some Chinese factory and put them on the website for a few hundred bucks a pop and they'd probably sell like hotcakes.
although personally I think I'd hold out and wait for the F5-key bouncer instead...
We walked up to the convention center and knew immediately that we were in the right place.
We entered through the door that we figured would get us closest to the woot action
and proceeded up those great stairs designed by FedUpOldHag.
Sorry I stole this photo. It's just too good and I hope it wins.
There was no requirement for a "permanent" banner in this contest, was there? WOOT!

Hi, I just started teaching English at a private language school in Spain. I have a TEFL certificate, but no experience other than that.
I had a brief orientative meeting with the director the Friday before beginning to teach and I left kind of confused. He then went directly to the mountains where the school is running a summer camp for children, which I will be teaching at eventually for 2 weeks.
I am the only teacher at the actual school now and the only other person there is the receptionist. All the books they have are at least 10 years old (I shouldn't complain, I'm sure other people don't even have that!) and I suppose I am expected to use these books, but photocopy them. When I came for the interview at the beginning I asked what method they used to teach. Well the director said they have a book explaining everything. However, now that I am teaching, this book is "lost".
My question is this: how much support can I normally expect from a language school? I feel like I'm not even sure what they want me to teach the students. I've been poring over the textbooks they have, as well as looking on the internet for this information (e.g., what is appropriate for low intermediate, etc), and it is taking me hours to plan my lessons. I have asked the receptionist if I can talk to the director twice and she acts like I'm asking her to move mountains.
One class I am teaching is an intermediate class, but it is very mixed. One student is preparing for the TOEFL, which I am expected to help her with, even though I don't know much about actually preparing for it. Another student is preparing for the Selectividad in English (this is the test all high schoolers in Spain take in order to get into university). The third student has a much lower level than the other two. So, not only do I have a very mixed-level class but I have to figure out how to teach to these different students' objectives.
In addition, this school does not use a written placement test, apparently the director just interviews the students. Since he is gone they were asking me the first day to give placement tests without any explanation in how to do them. I kind of understand that now, but don't agree with only doing it orally. (when I first came to spain it was to go to a private language school to learn spanish. my spoken level was beginner and my written level was high intermediate!)
I am very frustrated and really want to quit. Do you have any advice? Talking to the director the two times on the phone has helped some, but am I asking for too much by saying I need more help??
p.s. You wrote the following in response to a previous post with the title of 'The difference between?'
"The needs of learners of English as a second language are different to the needs of learners of English as a foreign language. I think that in the USA, this distinction does not exist."
What do you mean by this? I did my TEFL course in the US, and of course we talked about the different needs of EFL vs ESL learners because these differences DO exist and it is good to be aware of them when teaching. Students who study English in the US are learning it as their second language, whereas in non English speaking countries it is a foreign language.

The Canisius College rowing team opens the spring portion of its schedule on Saturday afternoon at the Jesuit Invitational in Camden, N.J. on the Cooper River hosted by Saint Joseph's University.
Making their first appearance at the race, the Golden Griffins will be joined by a field of five fellow Jesuit institutions including the host Hawks, Boston College, and a pair of MAAC opponents as Fairfield and Loyola round out the field.
The feature race of the day will be the Varsity Eight race at 1 p.m. for the Robert M. Gillin Jr. Trophy. Since the start of the race in 1999, Boston College and Saint Joseph's have each secured the trophy six times with Holy Cross and Fordham capturing the team title once. Neither Holy Cross or Fordham will be competing this year.
Compared to last season's spring opener, this year's crews have a great mixture of scholastic and collegiate experience. The pair of eights will include eight Griffs from last year's squad and ten newcomers to this year's spring roster.
For the Jesuit Invitational, the Varsity Eight will include sophomore Liz Reinwald, senior Alyssa Eddy, freshman Corrine Kickel, freshman Nora Kennon, junior Liz McKinney, junior Nancy Kennish, senior Stephanie Sanfilipo, junior Lynna Paradiso and freshman coxswain Hannah Blum.
The Second Varsity Eightwill be comprised of freshman Erica Mason, junior Meghan Martin, freshman Megan Walsh, freshman Julie Sciandra, senior Julia Roache, senior Amanda Kielich, senior Bridget Wodowski, senior Monica Klenk, and freshman coxswain Jordan Bamrick.
At the end of the race, the Cannonball Trophy will be awarded to the combined men's and women's team champion. The Cannonball Trophy is in honor of Saint Ignatius Loyola's, who founded the Jesuit order. The cannonball signifies Ignatius' horrific injury when he was struck in the right leg by a cannonball while defending the Spanish border.
According to Saint Joseph's, "The Cannonball Trophy serves as a reminder that all good things start with pain. The glory of winning is only possible by withstanding the mental and physical pain of the 2000m race course. The trophy is awarded to the school with the highest combined points from today's racing. The Cannonball Trophy is a traveling trophy which the winner returns each year. The winning team receives a small cannonball that is theirs to keep as a reminder on their championship performance."
Schedule of events:
11:20 a.m.- Women's Freshman Four
11:40 a.m.- Women's Freshman Eight
12:00 p.m.- Women's Varsity Four
12:40 p.m.- Women's Second Varsity Eight
1:00 p.m.- Women's Varsity Eight - Robert M. Gillin, Jr. Trophy

How Effective Music Benefits Are To Help Causes – Like Haiti?

I think they are quite effective. People tend to rally around celebrities for better or for worse than they do politicians or unknowns.

Valid and interesting cautions on costs, which are appreciated. However, awareness raising through a live event is still unique in how people connect to each other as well the cause. Is is possible that benefit concerts are value-added; inviting attendees to text a contribution there or later + visit related/promoted websites to contribute online post-event? Metrics for that are hard to imagine, even if questions were answered on a site about an event driving people there, but the spirit of bringing people together may be priceless.

Goldfarb struggles to preserve his disintegrating White House base threat story
In a December 16 post, Weekly Standard blogger Michael Goldfarb defended the accuracy of his report that the White House is "threatening to close" Nebraska's Offutt Air Force Base "to extort" Sen. Ben Nelson's vote on health care reform -- denied by both the White House and Nelson's office -- by pointing to a request by 20 Republican senators for a congressional investigation of his report. But a Nebraska newspaper reported on December 17 that Nelson's fellow Nebraska senator, Mike Johanns, said he signed on to the request even though he doesn't believe Goldfarb's story is true and Goldfarb's blog post follows his retraction of his prior claim that White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel had personally issued such a "threat."
Goldfarb cites senators' call for investigation to bolster story -- but one of those senators says he doesn't believe it
Goldfarb uses "presumably well sourced" senators' call for investigation to prop up story. From Goldfarb's December 16 post [1]:
Twenty Republican senators have requested that the Senate Armed Services Committee launch an investigation into reports that the Obama White House threatened to close Nebraska's Offutt Air Force base unless Nebraska Senator Ben Nelson fell into line on health care. Those reports first appeared on this blog [2]. In the letter to Senators [Carl] Levin and [John] McCain [3], the committee chairman and ranking member, the 20 ask that "a hearing be held as to whether the BRAC [Base Realignment and Closure] process has been compromised."
Meanwhile, both Nelson and the White House strenuously deny the allegation. A statement from White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer asserts "This rumor is absolutely false, as the people spreading it well know. This is nothing but a cynical, crass political game that is designed to maintain the status quo. Let's be clear: the people spreading these falsehoods think nothing is wrong with a system under which families and businesses continue to bear the brunt of skyrocketing costs, insurance companies are allowed to discriminate and drop at will, and thousands of Americans lose their coverage every single day."
They protest a little too much. I do not know this story is "absolutely false." To the contrary, I'm confident it's true. Twenty senators are now calling for an investigation, and each is presumably pretty well sourced in the Senate. If the charges are "absolutely false," maybe the White House will encourage Senate Democrats to call this Republican bluff. I won't hold my breath.
Nelson's fellow Nebraska senator reportedly says he supports investigation even though he doesn't believe story. In a December 17 article [4], the Omaha World-Herald reported:
Sen. Mike Johanns and 19 other Republican senators Wednesday called for a hearing into reports that the Obama administration used the future of Offutt Air Force Base as bargaining chip in the health care debate.
Even Johanns himself said he doesn't believe the rumors.
"When Senator Nelson says it didn't happen, I trust Senator Nelson. I have no reason not to trust him," Johanns said.
It is true that Nelson is one of the last Democratic holdouts on the health care bill and that he has been in ongoing discussions with the White House. Conservative pundits have cited anonymous sources saying that the White House threatened to close Offutt, home of U.S. Strategic Command, if Nelson did not support the bill.
Johanns said the rumors have reached a level where people in Nebraska are wondering if they're valid.
"It's kind of taken on a life of its own and I think that is very unfortunate," Johanns said. "So, my hope is that the White House will respond and say 'This is not how we make these kinds of decisions.'"
But Johanns said the White House needs to work directly with senators.
"The White House can work with us and say 'Look, folks, this did not happen. We're happy to appear before whatever committee,'" Johanns said. "I think that really does put this to rest."
Goldfarb's "presumably well-sourced" senators cited "media reports," not personal knowledge, in calling for investigation. In their December 16 letter [3] to Senate Armed Services Committee chairman Carl Levin (D-MI) and ranking member John McCain (R-AZ), the senators stated that "various media reports have stated that the Obama administration would put Offitt AFB in southeastern Nebraska on a future BRAC list because of a vote on healthcare reform." They did not cite any personal knowledge that those reports were accurate.
Goldfarb previously retracted claim that Emanuel issued the purported "threat"
On Weekly Standard blog, Goldfarb does not identify who in the White House issued the purported "threat." In his December 15 Weekly Standard blog post [2], Goldfarb did not specifically state who in the White House had purportedly issued the threat, or to whom it had been issued. Goldfarb cited a single anonymous "Senate aide," whom he did not identify by party and offered no explanation as to how this aide would be privy to such information. From Goldfarb's post:
According to a Senate aide, the White House is now threatening to put Nebraska's Offutt Air Force Base on the BRAC list if Nelson doesn't fall into line.
Offutt Air Force Base employs some 10,000 military and federal employees in Southeastern Nebraska. As our source put it, this is a "naked effort by Rahm Emanuel and the White House to extort Nelson's vote." They are "threatening to close a base vital to national security for what?" asked the Senate staffer.
Indeed, Offutt is the headquarters for US Strategic Command, the successor to Strategic Air Command, and not by accident. STRATCOM was located in the middle of the country for strategic reasons. Its closure would be a massive blow to the economy of the state of Nebraska, but it would also be another example of this administration playing politics with our national security.
On Beck's radio show, Goldfarb says "Rahm Emanuel delivered a message" that Offutt would be closed if Nelson opposed health care. On the December 16 edition [5] of Glenn Beck's radio show, Goldfarb stated: "As I understand it, Rahm Emanuel delivered a message to the Senate leadership that if Nelson did not get behind this, Offutt Air Force base would find itself on the next round of BRAC closures." He also said: "I have 100 percent confidence in my source on this, and, of course, the Nelson people have every reason to deny it." Goldfarb went on to say that "at the end of the day, the United States cannot survive without this base, so what they're basically threatening is to destroy the economic livelihood of a wide swath of Nebraska."
On Beck's Fox News show, Goldfarb retracts claim that Emanuel made threat, but says "we know for certain" that the "White House put in a call." On the December 16 edition [6] of his Fox News program, Beck asked Goldfarb if he had "changed the story," because "now, the story is that it's just the -- someone in the White House" who issued the purported threat, not Emanuel. Goldfarb replied:
GOLDFARB: Look, what happened was, I got a call yesterday, and a source of mine at the Senate told me that Ben Nelson's office had gotten a call threatening to put Offutt Air Force Base on the BRAC list if he did not play ball on this vote.
Subsequently, that -- I put that up quickly. He told me, "Look, this is obviously a naked play by Rahm Emanuel." And that was the exact quote I had in the story. And as interest in this story continued, I went back to my source and I got more details. And the one thing we know for certain is that the White House put in a call.
Nelson's office, White House have denied rumor
Nelson spokesman: "The rumor is not true." On December 15, the Omaha World-Herald quoted [7] Nelson spokesman Jake Thompson saying, "The rumor is not true. ... This misinformation is coming from inside-the-Beltway partisans who only want to derail health care reform."
Pfeiffer: "[T]hese rumors are completely baseless and false." From a December 15 blog post [8] by White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer:
Proving that they will leave no stone unturned in their efforts to undermine health reform, some blogs opposing reform are now trafficking an absurd rumor that Nebraska's Offutt Air Force Base is being threatened over Senator Ben Nelson's vote on the Senate reform bill.
To be perfectly clear: these rumors are completely baseless and false.
Thanks for your time.

College seniors and lifelong friends Miller (Miles Teller), a fast-talking hedonist, and Casey (Skyler Astin), a nice guy and soon to be stockbroker, arrive at the college where their third BFF Jeff (Justin Chon) is a medical student. It's Jeff's 21st birthday and Miller is desperate to get his buddy blindingly drunk, and enjoy one last amazing night before they all start their adult lives. Jeff protests because his demanding father has orchestrated and important job interview in the morning, but soon enough the birthday boy relents and eventually gets so thoroughly hammered he can barely speak, which presents a problem when Miller and Casey can't remember where there buddy lives. The trio sets off ona wild adventure to find anyone on campus who can tell them where Jeff lives so that they can get him ready for his big appointment. 21 and Over was written and directed by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, who wrote the screenplay for The Hangover. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Last weekend I attended my first convention, Cyphan, in Wheeling, IL. This was a first year sci-fi/fantasy/horror convention, but it felt far from it. Everything was well planned and put together, Mike and his staff worked hard and it paid off tremendously. The first day had several seminars and of course the dealer hall was open. The dealer hall had some very nice products in it, especially at the steampunk booths. In the evening there was a costume show where everyone showed off their costumes, including a spot on 10th Doctor (David Tennant), Batman, and Number Six. Following the costume show was a magic show put on by Ron Fitzgerald. Ending the night was a very entertaining show put on by Hot & Heavy Burlesque. Saturday was absolutely filled with things to do. First there were two special guests this year: Battlestar Galactica's Nicki Clyne (@nickiclyne) and Firefly's Jewel Staite (@jewelstaite). Both had photo-ops, Q&A's, and autograph signings. In the evening the Browncoat Bash was held, here Jewel and Nicki came out and talked to everyone. Right behind the bash was a wedding reception that had been planned to be happening at the same time as Cyphan, so that storm troopers would come in and do their thing. Closing out the night was the Imperial Ball, Jewel and Nicki joined in on the fun here as well, look around on their twitters or blogs and you'll see some pics of them on the dance floor. The last day there wasn't a lot going on as expected, but I managed to buy a few things at the dealer floor before I left.
Cyphan was worth every penny and I will without a doubt be attending next year. I met some cool people, saw some awesome costumes, and got to meet Jewel and Nicki.
Before attending Cyphan this year, I hadn't planned attending any other conventions this year. However, I've decided to go to the San Diego Comic Con, in a few weeks. Granted it's not the small personal feel of Cyphan, but it's still something to experience.
I also have to give big kudos to United Airlines. The main zipper on my luggage got ripped off in the conveyor at ORD. I went to the United information booth to get some fragile tape or shrink wrap so I wouldn't lose anything until I could get to some place that sold luggage. Instead of giving me shrink wrap, they replaced my luggage without hesitation. Thumbs up!

BATON ROUGE, La.
Sophomore pole vaulter Jessica Reust and freshman long jumper Tianna Madison qualified for the NCAA Outdoor Championships meet with top-five finishes on Friday, and seven other University of Tennessee women moved on to Saturday's finals in their events at the NCAA Mideast Regional at Bernie Moore Stadium in Baton Rouge, La.
Reust, a walk-on from Knoxville's Farragut High School, cleared 12 feet, 10 inches and tied for fourth with four others. She earned the fourth-place finish outright, however, by virtue of fewer missed attempts. Therefore, the sophomore earns an automatic berth in the NCAA Outdoor Championships meet, which will be held June 9-12 in Austin, Texas. Teammate Kendra Rhyne, a sophomore from Andersonville, Tenn., came up short on her attempt to make the national field, clearing 12-4 to place 11th.
For Reust, the appearance at the NCAA meet will be her first, and it marks the second-straight season a Lady Vol coached by David Job has made the elite field. A year ago, Christie Elwin capped her career by earning a trip to Sacramento, Calif., via the regional meet in Columbus, Ohio.
In the final event of the evening, Madison charted a jump of 20-6.50 to nab second place and punch her ticket to Austin. The Elyria, Ohio, native also made the NCAA's indoor gathering in March, placing fifth and earning All-America acclaim. Madison entered tonight's competition with a career best of 20-9.75, which she recorded in placing second at the SEC Championships two weekends ago. On this night, she finished second behind Michigan State's Sherita Williams, who stretched the tape to 20-7.75 to win the event.
Thanks to Reust's fourth-place contribution of five points and Madison's eight, Tennessee stands in sixth place after the first of two days of action with 13 points. Ohio State leads the
way with 22 points, followed by Michigan State (21), LSU (19), Michigan (18) and Arkansas (14) rounding out the top five.
"We advanced seven to the finals and we also had Jessica Reust make her first NCAA meet and Tianna Madison earn a spot in Austin," UT Head Coach J.J. Clark said. "It was a very good day, and we look forward to continuing that roll tomorrow. We are showing a lot of life and spirit late in the season."
In preliminary action in the 400 meters, junior Dee Dee Trotter easily advanced to the finals. The Decatur, Ga., product cruised to a 52.29 readout to easily win heat two and move on to Saturday's money race with the second-best clocking of the preliminary round. LSU's Nadia Davy, who won heat one in 51.85, was the only athlete faster than the Lady Vol standout on Saturday. Hazel-Ann Regis, who defeated Trotter for the SEC title two weekends ago, notched the number-three qualifying mark, headlining heat three in 52.51.
Tennessee added two more qualifiers in the 800 meters, as junior Nicole Cook (Petersburg, Va.) and Kameisha Bennett (Dayton, Ohio) took care of business. Cook won heat three in 2:04.38 and charted the fourth-best time of the trials, while Bennett claimed top honors in heat two and posted the number-eight mark of the prelims in 2:05.70. Cook will aim for her third-consecutive NCAA Outdoor appearance, while Bennett will strive for visit number two and her first since 2002.
Two other Lady Vols ran in the 800m prelims but were unable to advance. Despite logging a career-best 2:08.33, junior Antoinette Gorham (Glenarden, Md.) finished 17th and saw her individual season come to a close. The same occurred with freshman Leslie Treherne (Chesapeake, Va.), who struggled uncharacteristically to a 31st-place outcome of 2:13.41. Because of her season-best time of 2:05.57, which ranks 11th in the country, Clark said there is a chance Treherne could receive an at-large bid to the NCAA meet.
In the 1500-meter prelims, sophomore Brooke Novak and senior Lindsay Hyatt earned opportunities to run for NCAA Championships berths on Saturday. Novak, from Kaukauna, Wis., crossed the line third in heat one and qualified fourth overall in 4:19.70. That mark was just off her two-week-old career best of 4:19.61. Hyatt, meanwhile, was third in heat two and eighth overall in the trials in 4:25.18.
Madison and junior Toyin Olupona each put in career-topping efforts to earn a spot in Saturday's 100-meter dash finals. Madison, boosted by a gust of 5.7 meters per second, zipped to an 11.44 readout to win heat one and advance with the number-three time of the prelims. Olupona, a product of Orillia, Ontario, Canada, gained a berth in the regional championship race by virtue of a PR 11.54 performance that was good enough for second in heat two and seventh overall.
In the final running event of the evening, sophomore Katie Flaute (Dayton, Ohio) took 14th in the 5000 meters in 17:22.96, while senior Jessica Southers (Ashland, Ky.) completed her career by finishing 22nd in 18:10.63.
In addition to those who earned spots in Saturday's finals, junior school record-holder Elizabeth McCalley (Knoxville, Tenn.) is slated to compete in the 3000-meter steeplechase and the 4x400m relay is scheduled to wrap up the meet on Saturday night at 8 p.m. CT.

Hello Auntie,
I intend to move to Spain and teach English as a foreign language. I'm currently scanning the web to find out which certificate is best to acquire, but have been unable to find any unbiased advice, as they all say their course is the best (as you would).
Can you please tell me which course is better received in Spain. The ones i've seen are CELTA, TESOL plus various independant courses.
Any advice gratefully received!
Kind Regards

I'm up for walnut too please

I'm up for walnut too please
I'd have to say Walnut too, why not just take one more step towards accuracy? :)
I'll take walnut, pending price. :thumbsup
Ooooooh, walnut! Sounds great. Hope the price won't be too much more than the others.
Count me interested. Especially if walnut is an option.
im in for a walnut as well, if it doesnt break the bank...
please put me in for 2 walnuts.
interested in 1
any news on the walnut one?
The only news update is that he DID get some walnut to start these. I will update more as I know. Sorry for the delayed progress guys. I'm just the messenger and I wanna get these into your hands just as bad as you want them!
Any updates Lucksy?
Sorry guys, not too much to report actually. I DID go to his shop to check in, and he showed me the Huge slab of walnut that he had purchased. He also showed me the invoice for it, and it was $300 just for the walnut. It's a piece about 24in wide, 40in long and 3in deep. I don't know ANYTHING about wood, but he said that it was a GREAT price since walnut is VERY EXPENSIVE. He's made "jigs" for each individual gun stock and they DO look very nice. The Fir ones will be done 1st, and will be much cheaper. The walnut ones will be done second, and will be $50 plus shipping. I will start an official "SIGNUP" list once into production.
So, I pressed him for a completion time for these and he's still not sure. He's gotten extremely busy and since this isn't a huge profit maker, it's not his priority right now.
I apologize for the delay, but it's completely out of MY hands. If you CAN wait for these , I promise you that it WILL be worth it. I hope you guys understand!!!
No worries Scott, I'm still in for a walnut please
I've waited this long, I can wait a bit longer. :D
Still interested in a walnut stock. :)
Don't worry about the wait time. I don't mind waiting for a nice walnut stock.
Ditto. I am still in. No stress on the time. Thanks for the update.
Just a quick note, I'm won't be needing this stock any longer.
Hi there.. I am sooo interested in one of these!
Thanks a bunch!
Yeha, you and me both. I'm still waiting for mine as well. I apologize this taking SO long, but I have NO control or input on the time frame. I'm glad that NO money was collected, so there's no issue there. All I can say is that whne these DO get going, it will be worth the wait.. Sorry guys.....
PLEASE put on this let im interested for sure.
Any updates Lucksy?
My only update is my frustration with the entire matter. Sorry guys. I'm still hoping to see this through....
Hey! If it doesn't work out, we didn't lose anything! No worries, vod!

So, we managed to pick up a Nemrod holster to go along with our Pulce speargun for the TDH table ( thanks SlaveR5!).
I am still not totally convinced the ribbed strap version of the Nemrod is the exact version seen in the film, but it will certainly do for now.
So we started with this early this afternoon.
The first thing I did was try the fit the Pulce into the holster... It fits! It is tight, but it does fit. The barrel barely fit through the hole in the bottom so I widened it just a bit with a half-round file. One thing I think some people are missing is just how far out the bottom of the holster the pulce barrel should come. From what I have seen, the barrel should come completely out of the bottom of the holster, almost to the point that the knurling shows.
I then realized that the rubber retaining strap for the holster was far too long because the Pulce is pushed so far down into the holster. I added a new snap about 3/4" behind the original and then trimmed the strap. After trimming it sits a lot closer to how the original stap appears to sit.
I then began to cut out the trigger guard area in the back of the holster and spent most of the afternoon on this as I was very afraid of cutting away too much of the holster. However, I cut a LOT more than I expected before I got a look that comes close to the original.
Here is a comparison showing the second to last cut.
And here is the holster with the final cut to the trigger guard area.
After this I tackled the knife slot. I know there is a lot of debate about how much is cut off and how much is left. I don't know any more than anyone else, but I am not in the camp that believes the prop makers would have been concerned about maintaining the integrity of the Nemrod logo and based on the photos I have seen, I believe the front face of the holster is virtually flat. I know I am immediately going to get flak for the poor sanding job, but believe it or not it is on purpose. In the inset photo, you can clearly see the very hasty and poorly finished sanding job on the original prop, which leaves a knife-like triangle in the center of the face. I did my best to mimic this sanding pattern.
So, that is pretty much it. Here is a photo of the final holster, minus the Pulce.
Now I am on the hunt for an original holster with the smooth, built in strap. Anyone want to trade? :lol
