Fifty years of excellence in research and education in political science at the University of Essex has won recognition from Her Majesty the Queen with the award of a prestigious Regius Professorship.
The University of Essex will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2014, and now becomes one of the youngest universities ever to receive this accolade. Only two Regius Professorships were created in the past century.
The University's Department of Government has topped the UK politics rankings for the quality of its research in every national assessment of research quality since the Research Assessment Exercise began in 1991. It also obtains consistently high student satisfaction scores, with 91 per cent overall student satisfaction in the 2012 National Student Survey.
To mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee in 2012, 12 Regius Professorships were announced in January 2013 for 12 different subjects to universities around the UK, recognising "outstanding" departments.
Vice-Chancellor, Professor Anthony Forster, said: "We are delighted with the news that the Department of Government will hold the Regius Professorship in Political Science – the only one of its kind in the country. Our Department has been at the forefront of research and education for half a century and has an unrivalled reputation for the quality of its research and the commitment of staff to our students. It is a great honour that Political Science at Essex has been recognised in this way."
Speaker of the House of Commons, the Rt Hon John Bercow MP, with graduates from the Department of Government in 2010, when he was awarded an honorary degree by the University
Essex politics graduate and Speaker of the House of Commons, the Rt Hon John Bercow MP, said: "I spent an immensely stimulating and enjoyable three years at Essex, learning from and interacting with an outstanding team of lecturers in the Department of Government. It is a fantastic and well-deserved achievement that in less than 50 years Essex has established such an enviable international reputation in political science and I warmly congratulate the University on the award of the Regius Professorship."
Professor Thomas Plümper, Head of the Department of Government, said: "This award is particularly gratifying for us as we mark the 50th anniversary of the appointment of our founding professor, Jean Blondel. He established Essex as the UK's premier university for political science and he defined the distinctive type of political science that we still conduct at Essex. Over its 50 years, the Department of Government has been the home not only to British academics such as Professor Sir Ivor Crewe, Professor Ian Budge and Professor Paul Whiteley, but also the intellectual home for leading researchers from around the world, including Professor Anthony King, Professor Kristian Gleditsch and Professor Robert Goodin.
"As we now look to the challenges of the next 50 years the Department is thrilled that our contribution to the field of political science has received such distinguished recognition."
Students' Union President, Nathan Bolton, who was awarded a first-class degree from the Department in 2012, said: "The Department of Government at the University of Essex fully deserves this recognition. As a student from the Department, I have experienced first-hand the stimulating intellectual environment that is encouraged by members of its academic community. This accolade further validates the principles upon which the department was founded, of academic freedom and rigorous enquiry."
David Willetts, Minister for Universities and Science, said: "I was incredibly impressed by the quality and range of the applications received and am delighted that twelve new Regius Professorships are to be created. Together, the successful applications demonstrated an exceptionally high level of achievement in both teaching and research. It is testament to the quality and strength of our higher education sector that so many universities were considered worthy of such a distinguished honour."
Notes to editors
1. For further information please contact the University of Essex Communications Office, telephone 01206 872400, e-mail email@example.com .
2. Until the Government's announcement on 29 January, Regius Professorships had been limited to the universities of Oxford, Cambridge, St Andrews, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Trinity College, Dublin. The Queen bestows the awards after taking advice from ministers, who were in turn advised by a panel of eminent academics led by Sir Graeme Davies, former Vice-Chancellor of the University of London.
The new posts of Regius Professor are:
- University of Dundee – Life Sciences
- Imperial College, London – Engineering
- London School of Economics and Political Science – Economics
- The Open University – Open Education
- University of Manchester – Physics
- Royal Holloway, University of London – Music
- University of Essex – Political Science
- King's College London – Psychiatry
- University of Reading – Meteorology and Climate Science
- University of Southampton – Computer Science
- University of Surrey – Electronic Engineering
- University of Warwick – Mathematics
3. All entries were assessed by the expert panel on the merits of their application alone, against a scoring system based on the criteria, with greatest weight given to the excellence of the university's work in the proposed discipline and the recognition the discipline has gained.
4. The chairman of the expert panel was Sir Graeme Davies, Vice-Chancellor of the University of London until 2010. Other panel members included Lord Broers of Cambridge (formerly Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge and President of the Royal Academy of Engineering), Lord Rees of Ludlow (formerly Master of Trinity College, Cambridge and President of the Royal Society) and Lord Sutherland of Houndwood (formerly Principal of the University of Edinburgh and President of the Royal Society of Edinburgh).

Anco Theatre
254 W. 42nd Street,
New York,
7 people favorited this theater
Comic acting team Lew Fields and Joe Weber closed their music hall on 26th Street in 1904 after nearly a decade and were given a new theatre by their employer, Oscar Hammerstein, after their enormous success playing the Victoria Theatre.
Located on W. 42nd Street, adjacent to the American Theatre of 1893, the new Lew M. Fields Theatre was designed by Philadelphia architect Albert E. Westover. It could seat about 770 and was best known for its tiered boxes on each side of the proscenium arch, which could seat over 20. It was also one of the earliest Broadway theatres which contained a fire-prevention system, complete with a pair of 5,000-gallon water tanks on the roof, in response to the Iroquois Theatre tragedy in Chicago a year earlier, which killed hundreds of theatre-goers.
The Lew M. Fields Theatre opened December 5, 1904 with a highly successful musical comedy "It Happened in Nordland" that ran half a year, but afterwards, Fields sold the theatre to actor/producer James K. Hackett, who named the theatre for himself.
In 1911, William B. Harris took over the theatre, and, of course, it was renamed again for him. Showman H.H. Frazee ran the theatre from 1920 until 1922 under his name, but in 1924, its newest name, Wallack's Theatre, was after a long-gone mid-19th century theatre.
In 1930, after 25 years of legitimate theatre use, Wallack's Theatre was converted into a movie house, which meant that its simple-yet-graceful turn-of-the-century decor was mostly torn out, including the boxes, dressing rooms and its stage sealed off.
A decade later, renamed the Anco Theatre, the theatre was operated by the Cinema Circuit Corp. chain. It was further vandalized by the removal of one of its two balconies, and its Beaux-Arts facade hacked off. For another nearly half century, the box-like theatre served as a movie house, before being shuttered in 1988, when its interior was totally gutted for retail use.
In 1997, in the wake of the redevelopment of W. 42nd Street, the former theatre was razed.

Welcome to CT, Michelle!
Thanks for the welcome Ed. I was searching for photos of the Anco marquee that featured my picture and came across this site. My pic was supposed to be a take on this Jennifer Beals shot: Flash Dance
While I am grateful for the 2 pics I found here, I would like to find a shot where my face it clearly visible. If anyone has any pictures of the east and/or west sides of the Anco Theater marquee from 1984-86, please share them here. I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
Sorry can't help there, Michelle. Coincidentally, the two photos you did find are from my Photobucket scrapbook. The B&W image comes with the permission of the photographer, the talented and gracious Matt Weber. Matt has a website at www.urbanphotos.com and he took many photos of 42nd Street and the Times Square area in the 1980's. You might consider contacting him to see if, by chance, he has any shots of the Anco marquee from this period that offer a cleare view of your image. Good luck. If I come across anything in my own perusals, I'll be sure to let you know about it here.
Thanks Ed. I will definitely try to contact Matt Weber. Thanks for the help.
photo i took in dec 1992 in the very last days of 42nd streets sleazy glory
shuttered and awaiting demolition
This was my least favorite of the 42nd Street line-up, and I was not sorry to see it close. It stunk to high heaven and because of its late run bookings and rock bottom prices it seemed to attract an even lower class of patrons than the other houses, if that's possible! When I was here there was no balcony, only a raised rear mezzanine, like at the new Ziegfeld. But that's where the similarity ended.
I am working on a project to document the history of adult theatres in the US. If anyone has any person memories of the Anco they would be willing to share, please contact me at mjprigge at uwm dot edu
Back in the '80s, when I arrived in TS from the West Coast, the Deuce was always hiring. I went into the employment office and the lady said, "Go apply at the porn theatres. Better still, apply at Show World Center. They're open 24/365 and they always need mop men. It's disgusting work, but it pays a little bit of the rent."
My Dad Paul was the manager of the Anco theater during the mid to late 1950's. There was a robbery there in 1959 during a showing of Shootout at the OK Corral! He also managed the Prospect theater in the Bronx before that for Cinema Circuit! As far as I can remember, the ANCO played mostly action and adventure films with some Sci-fi mixed in. It didn't have a candy stand, just vending machines. I think it was painted pink inside!? The usher Chris sold Ice Cream from a tray during the intermission. It was owned by Cinema Circuit. The partners were Mark I. Finklestein and Max Cohen. Cohen's daughter was ANNA COHEN! So they named it AN—CO after his daughter!

NYC Officials Expect a 'Big Lift' in Pre-K Expansion
Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration publicly has maintained confidence in its ability to quickly expand quality pre-kindergarten programs in New York City and touted its strengths, including a precedent of high-quality city programs to build on and ongoing cooperation among city agencies to open new pre-k classrooms by September.
But expectations must be tempered too.
In a discussion at the Bank Street College of Education on Wednesday night, Deputy Mayor Richard Buery and Josh Wallack, chief strategy officer at the Department of Education, listed some of the challenges ahead in rapidly scaling up pre-k while maintaining a high-level of quality. They included putting new seats in areas that both need them and want them, said Wallack, and making sure parents understand what their pre-k options are in both public schools and community-based organizations.
Another key hurdle will be ensuring that teachers have the skills they need — and quickly. The city is looking to hire 1,000 new teachers by this fall.
"This is a big lift," said Buery, and he implored stakeholders to work with the city to make the pre-k expansion a successful endeavor. "There are going to be lots of things that are not perfectly defined and we're going to solve them together."
Regina Gallagher, head of early childhood programs at the Goddard Riverside Community Center, offered an on-the-ground view of what may lie ahead, including the need for a better model of mentoring teachers in order to achieve the level of quality — and educator buy-in — that the de Blasio administration has promised.
"I know this is a radical idea, but they should be working with experienced teachers," said Gallagher, as opposed to coaches who lack experience in the classroom.

2010 2nd Amendment Dollar - Limited Numbered Issue
This Item is Currently Out of Stock
2010 2nd Amendment Dollar - Limited Numbered Issue
Factory New
|Bud's Item #
*Limited Numbered Issue* 2010 Second Amendment Dollar One Ounce .999 Fine Silver
The demand and support for our Second Amendment Silver Gun Dollars has exceeded expectations. Before production even started, we had hoped that this commemorative issue would be admired and treasured for years to come.
When the mint first started producing the 2010 Gun Dollar, we requested that 100 of the very first dollars be set aside. These have now been individually hand numbered for a very special Limited Numbered Issue that is strictly limited to only 100 Gun Dollars.
Like our Brilliant Uncirculated Issue, the Limited Numbered Issue is minted with one ounce of .999 Fine Silver and measure 39mm.
In addition to the individual hand numbering, every Second Amendment Dollar has been hand stamped with a special micro hallmark of the famous 1911 Handgun that is featured on the reverse. Each Limited Numbered Issue is then carefully sealed in a tamperproof plastic capsule.
Each Limited Number Issue includes a solid wood mahogany colored display presentation case lined with satin and velveteen. This First Year of Issue is completed with a Certificate of Authenticity, each has been hand signed by Mr. Bud Wells, owner of BudsGunShop.com, and hand embossed with a custom Gun Rights logo.
This Limited Numbered Issue is strictly limited to only 100.
These pieces will have slight imperfections due to the hallmarking process and the fact that they were some of the very first specimens out of the press.
*** NOTICE: Second Amendment Dollar is a commemorative medallion that is not intended to be used as currency and any representation as United States currency is strictly prohibited by law.
*Please Note!! Many of our pictures are stock photo's provided to us by the manufacturer and do not necessarily represent the actual item being purchased. Please verify this picture accurately reflects the product described by the title and description on this page before you place your order.

It is an anniversary of death so naturally, Osama bin Laden has to get into the act with another of his boring tirades against the West, against the United States, and, above all, against Israel. The Osamaman said Barack Obama was powerless to bring peace to Afghanistan and vowed to increase the level of attacks. Of course, there is not the slightest piece of evidence the Osamaman has any influence over the Taliban and considerable doubt they even want him around.
He urged Americans to liberate themselves from the Bush era and join his alliance in the fight to wipe out Israel. Naturally, he blamed 9/11 attacks on Israel and promised once that nation was abandoned thee would be peace, prosperity and joy throughout the Muslim world.
It would be breath taking if the Osamaman could actually make a speech in which the word, "Israel" does not appear. Osamaman, how about them rich Arab princes who gave you the money to fight while denying poor Arabs money? How about the rights of Muslim women– is their lack the result of Israel?

I lost my ex-husband twice. The first time when I divorced him 3 years ago. And again when he died 1-14-11. I rushed through the divorce and was so angry with him for his narcissistic behavior. The anger drove me, I could not be stopped. Anger can drive you to do things that you regret later. I loved him so much, but he didn't have empathy for me on certain levels.
It broke up our marriage, because he would not validate my feelings, just told me I shouldn't feel that way. Our main issue was that he was retired and I still had to work. He didn't have much of a pension, so I was supporting his retirement with lots of traveling and adventure for him, but not me. Anyway, I wanted to be with him so much and it didn't seem anything I did would change the situation. I chose not to see him after divorce, because I knew him well enough to know that I was the one who was still in love with him. I couldn't stand to see him going off and enjoying himself and maybe take up with another woman. After all that's what broke up our marriage to begin with.......him going off and enjoying himself and leaving me behind. So for over 3 years, I have not talked to him.
Then the call comes in January from his brother. He had suddenly died in his sleep at 62 of heart disease. AND, he had been living with another woman for the last two years.
Suddenly, my whole world turned upside down. I had not allowed myself to think of all the positives between us and there were many wonderful times and years. I did feel very close to him and I know that I knew him better than any other person in this world. He revealed much to me. He always thought that he would die young, because his father had. He wouldn't go to the DR for much of the time I knew him, even though he had been on heart medications. He took himself off one of them and we argued about it about 7 years ago. I wonder now if he knew how sick he was and just chose to ignore it? He was a dare devil to some extent. I suddenly felt like I had somehow let him down. Why did I give him such a bad time about maybe getting some kind of part time job to support the sail boat we owned and which consumed so much of our income? It was a huge issue between us and I suddenly felt guilty since he had so little time to live. Why couldn't I have been more understanding and just worked a bit harder at making things work? A thousand questions as to why I couldn't have been kinder to him and accepted him for who he was. I did love him, but felt for self survival, I couldn't live with his behavior at the time. And I had missed him from the time I divorced him. I have dated a bit, but not had any relationships, because I just couldn't find anyone who I was interested in like I was interested in him. So for the last three years, I have pining away for him on several levels AND being angry with him for what he had done to me. Such a mixed venue of feelings have consumed me. To know that I will never be able to resolve any of the problems between us is heart breaking. And I am so jealous of the other woman who he was with. Did he think about me? Did he regret what he had done or did he think he was the victim? MANY questions I will NEVER know the answer to........
It hurts on SO many levels.......

Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's long-anticipated sequel to Sin City hits theaters this weekend, but critics aren't loving it as much as they did the first one. While Eva Green's performance as a deranged film noir seductress and the titular "dame to kill for" was praised, overall, critics felt the sequel hit too many of the same notes as the first film and got boring quickly when Green wasn't on screen.
Sin City 2: A Dame to Kill For has been nine years in the making since the original, groundbreaking Sin City that won prizes for its inventive green screen work. This time around the movie's monochrome palate — which makes the film look like Frank Miller's comic strip by using mostly black and white with occasional splashes of bright color — was filmed in 3-D as Rodriguez honed the technique.
Jessica Alba reprises her role as bitter stripper Nancy Callahan and Rosario Dawson also returns as the hardboiled vigilante member of the law enforcement from Sin City's prostitute-run district known as Old Town. Green, who stirred up controversy with her bared breasts in one of the film's posters, is the seductive temptress Ava Lord. Lady Gaga even makes an appearance as the waitress Bertha.
As for the men, Mickey Rourke, Josh Brolin, and Bruce Willis all play down-on-their luck guys looking for justice in a world where they'll never find it. Willis is a ghost, having been killed in the last film trying to protect Nancy Callahan, who spends her storyline in this movie seeking to avenge his death. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has a new role in the sequel, playing a gambler who gets in deep in debt with a powerful politician.
The movie currently has a tepid 50 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which is a big disappointment in comparison to the 76 percent the original film has on the popular review-aggregating website. Critics said that the movie still looks cool, but not really any cooler than the first one did. The only real new element added is Eva Green's character, who was praised for the most part, though some did question her "peculiar allergy to clothing of any kind."

Well, now that I've finally finished the paint & trim, here's the progress from the beginning. The tank is built into the middle of a large room, to divide the space between the master bedroom and home office. Note: don't build the stand until you have the tank. I was going to build a custom 7 foot tank, and built the stand first. Custom tank in the dimensions I wanted would have run almost 2grand more than I spent on the 6 footer.

Here's the end result. Running since October '07
Wow. Very nice. How about a picture of the guts from behind? I'd like to see how much room you left yourself to work back there :)
Woot. It looks nice. well done !
PVC pipes & valves are for water changes. The T-off is from the filter return, which leads to the laundry sink via the soffit for the heating ducts, which originally ran above the tank anyways, and made for a natural division in the room before I put the tank wall in.
The FX5 is plenty powerful enough to drain the tank in a hurry. The light canopy lifts up to allow better access if I need. The timers & power strip are mounted high on the wall just below the ceiling.
Is the tank finished on the rear side, some sort of access panel, or is it open like in the pic?
That's an AMAZING build- thanks so much for sharing it!

Thats awesome man. Very well executed. The tank looks fantastic, and you did a good job finishing it up to make it look nice (on the wall). What are you using for lighting? You said posted this in the low tech forum, so I am interested in your specs with regards to co2/no co2, fertilization, etc.
BiscuitSlayer- Thanks. I built the trim that way so that it sits tight against the glass. Lighting is 8x40watt T12's, and 3x25watt cf spirals. No CO2, & so far no ferts.
Thanks for all your comments. Now I've got to finish painting the rest of the room ('70's wood panelling) crown molding & baseboard, & do something about the old 86g in the background.
Thats a bad mama jama!
Two big green thumbs up.
:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Tom Barr
Howly cow, that is great :D
thats just stunning Joe!!! i wish my hubby would let me put one of those in OUR bedroom!!!
those your old bosamis from the 86?
the corner inwall is an amazing idea.
Thanks Tom & Seaserpent.
It's amazing how much better it looks from simply adding the trimwork.
I've still got my 3 original boesmanis in the old 86. I've got 5 of their juvies in the 180, and 15 fry in my 32g, almost big enough to trade in at the lfs. Once a month I pull plants outta the 86 into the 32, and wait for fry to show up. The adults just eat them in the 86.
Ikuzo, I almost didn't do it on the corner. The only reason I did it that way was I thought the borders would be too narrow, and would look funny if I kept it on the face wall. The wall on the right of that 'hallway' couldn't be moved, as it contained a structural post. Initially I wanted a 7foot tank, I was going to put it on the right, against the structural post, and have the hallway on the far left into the office. I'm quite pleased at the way it turned out, as it makes the tank look much bigger.
Biggest PITA? Trying to 'scape from the back. Ugh.
I should also mention another major point with this set-up, it is critical that water quality and quarantine protocol is maintained, because in order to catch a sick fish in this tank (from the back only where the plants are the thickest), you'd pretty much have to destroy the 'scape. I made that mistake. Once.

Helicopter crash kills 5
A helicopter crash in a remote, wooded area of northeastern Pennsylvania claimed the lives of five people, state police said Sunday. The crash apparently happened Saturday night after radar and communication contact with the helicopter was lost, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. The helicopter had taken off from Tri Cities Airport in Endicott, N.Y.
Congregation mourns
A church mourned its youth pastor, his pregnant wife and a congregation member Sunday after the three died when their bus returning from a northern Michigan camp overturned a mile from home. Saturday's accident devastated members of Colonial Hills Baptist Church, who had been anticipating a joyful homecoming with the 37 people aboard the bus. The crash killed youth pastor Chad Phelps; his pregnant piano-teacher wife, Courtney Phelps; and chaperone Tonya Weindorf, deacon Jeff Leffew said. The crash, which happened Saturday afternoon near Interstate 465, injured dozens. Seven teens remained hospitalized Sunday, including one in critical condition.
Stomach bug spreading
Florida health officials said they're investigating 23 cases of a stomach bug that have infected more than 320 people in 15 states, including Ohio. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says most of the cyclospora infections occurred from mid-June to early July. Cyclospora causes diarrhea and other flu-like symptoms. Previous outbreaks of cyclospora infections have been linked to various types of fresh vegetables and berries, Florida officials said.
Hawaii in storm's path
Tropical Storm Flossie weakened Sunday as it moves westward across the Pacific toward Hawaii. But the storm was still expected to bring heavy rain and winds up to 60 mph, along with the possibility of flash flooding and mudslides.

I would like to propose a major runway capacity improvement for Heathrow Airport. This would involve building two new parallel 12000' runways, within the existing Northern and Southern runways, separated by just 30m. The idea is that lengthy planning and public consultation would not be required, as the flight path arrangements would not change significantly from those of today. This avoids another No Third Runway campaign by the environmentalists.
The two new parallel runways would reduce the huge pressure on the existing runways at Heathrow, by allowing staggered parallel operations and steeper approaches for smaller aircraft. Landing aircraft would be directed to the closest runway to their stand. Lengthy holding around London would no longer be required, even in bad weather. Typical operational capacity would fall from 98%, to just over 60% when completed.
In preparation, all groundworks would be done at night when the airport is closed, or by cut and cover tunnelling alongside the active runways. The new runways would be constructed off-site, near the M25. They would be built in prefabricated and completed sections (75m x 75m), then moved on rails into position on tracks, buried alongside the existing runways. No airfield construction work would be carried out above ground level, so air operations can continue during runway section movements. In effect, the new runways will appear longer each day until completed. Each finished runway could open to air traffic within a matter of months. Completion of both new runways would be done by April 2015. The construction cost would be in the region of £500m.
During peak periods, aircraft would land on the new inner runways, so vacating the active runway would not conflict with departures using one or both of the existing outer runways. All Terminal 4 operations would use the Southern outer runway for the same reason. All departing aircraft would use the nearest outer runway from their stand. Most active runway crossing would be done via the undershoot areas to the far east or west of the airfield. Aircraft having to cross an active runway would be virtually elimated.
All operations would be staggered, so avoiding wingtip incidents on the extremely close parallel runways. Current long taxi distances and queues to and from the runway / stands would be greatly reduced.
The two new inner runways would be marked and configured for both full length 12000' operation and 7500' operation, with the threshold displaced at both ends for the shorter runway. The new inner runways would offer dual 3 degree and 6 degree glideslope for both easterly and westerly approaches.
As stacking over London would reduce the present 6000' restriction on departure would no longer be needed. This enables aircraft to climb on runway heading for longer, reducing the conflict of aircraft turning across the path of the northern or southern runways respectively.

   Tim Tebow's popularity has reached new heights. And with that popularity comes a price. The University Athletic Association has asked Tebow to stop signing autographs, citing "overwhelming" demands on Tebow's time.
   To quell the demand for Tebow's signature, the UAA will produce a free Tim Tebow signed poster, to be given out in mid-January.
    In December, Tebow became the first sophomore to win the Heisman Memorial Trophy, awarded to the best player in college football.
   Since winning the Heisman, the UAA writes that Tebow's autograph requests have become too numerous to handle.

Quick Guide17 Must-Try Fitness Workouts in Pictures
What type of clothing should be worn during running?
Running shorts
Shorts don't need to be complicated. The most important features are the fabric. It should be fast-wicking polyester to keep you dry. Some shorts have pockets to stash your keys or some money, and many have a drawstring to keep them from falling off when you run! Expect to pay $25 to $60 dollars for quality running shorts.
Leggings are good for when it's chilly. They come in tights that fit snugly that are made of polyester (spandex or Lycra), or they can fit looser and softer with combinations of polypropylene and other fabrics to make them feel almost like cotton. Select whichever feels most comfortable to you. All of these fabrics will keep you dry and warm. Expect to pay $75 to $125 for quality leggings.
Select a tank top or T-shirt depending on what feels most comfortable. Again, the fabric should be fast-wicking polyester to keep you dry.
How do I go about getting started?
Programs for running
The simple thing to do is get out there and jog or run for five to 10 minutes. Pace yourself, slow down if you get out of breath, and keep moving. I like a five-minute out, five-minute back plan. From your starting point, jog five minutes, turn around, and jog back five minutes. Done! Of course, not everyone can jog for 10 minutes to start, and that's okay. Try an informal interval-training method as a way to get started if jogging straight for 10 minutes is beyond your ability. Keep in mind that the most important thing is just to get started. You can always add more later on. Here's an interval plan that will get you started.
- Select the amount of time that you plan to jog/run for, let's say, 30 minutes.
- Start with a five-minute brisk walk to warm up.
- When you feel ready, start to jog. If you get out of breath, slow down and keep jogging, or walk again until you catch your breath. This could take one to two minutes.
- Once you've caught your breath, go ahead and jog again until you feel you've had enough. At that point, walk again.
- Repeat this series of walking/jogging intervals for 30 minutes, or whatever duration you select.
If you stick with this method, you'll find over time that you can increase the jogging intervals and decrease the walking intervals until you can jog for the entire 30 minutes.
Formal training schedules
If you prefer a more formal training program, you can organize your workout into specific intervals or ratios of work to active recovery (for example, work: active recovery). For instance, if you can jog for 30 minutes at 5.5 mph, try jogging for three minutes at that speed, then increase the speed to 6.0 mph and jog for one minute, then jog again for three minutes at your normal speed, then jog again at 6.0 mph for one minute, and so on until you reach your time limit. The work: active-recovery ratio in this example is 1:3. You can increase the work portion each week by 30 seconds and decrease the active-recovery time by 30 seconds, and if you follow that plan weekly, you will be jogging your whole workout at the faster speed before you know it! You can get even more specific and use your heart rate to determine your intervals. Heart rate is an excellent indication of how hard you are working. For example, if your heart rate at 5.5 mph is 70% of your predicted maximum, then start at that speed and increase either the speed, and/or elevation if you're on a treadmill, so that your heart rate increases to 85% for one minute, then back to your jogging speed that causes your heart to be at 70% of maximum for three minutes (1:3 ratio like the example above). Over time your conditioning will improve and then your heart rate will be lower at the higher speeds and you can spend more time at the higher speeds and less time in the active rest period. You can always vary the ratios if they turn out to be too hard or too easy. A good starting ratio is 1:3. Check the resources at the end of this article for additional training plans.
Although, as I mentioned, there is no persuasive research to show that stretching will prevent injuries, it does feel good, and that may be reason enough to stretch. Go ahead and stretch your calves, quadriceps, hamstrings, and low back, before and after your runs, and see what you think.
Where to run
The good news is that you can run just about anywhere. Find a track or a trail in the woods or a route on the street near where you live. Running in another city when you're traveling is a great way to see new sites and check out your environment. You can also call the local running club in the location you're traveling to for tips on scenic places to run. You might also consider joining your own local running club. The camaraderie of running with others is nice; it can be fun, motivating, and can help you stick with it if you're struggling a bit. It's also good to be a club member if you're looking for a training partner.
Road races
You might be interested in running in organized races. If so, check with your local running club for a race schedule near where you live. Road races are a great way to stay motivated, monitor your progress, and collect cool T-shirts as a trophy for your success! Road races come in many distances. There are 3.2 mile (a "5K" where K means kilometer), 5.0 mile, and 6.2 mile races (10K),as well as half marathons (13.1 miles) and marathons (26.2 miles). Most beginners should start with shorter races to get the feel of it and then tackle the longer ones.
How fast do I run?
You can determine your pace per mile by using a "pace calculator." Many Web sites have them. Check the resources at the end of this article for links.
The finish line
So there you have it; the low-down on running. I recommend giving it a try if you have any interest. Start slowly, just a few minutes if that's all you can do. You can always build up over time. The important thing is just to get started. In the words of the immortal Bruce Springsteen, "Baby we were born to run!"

General Robert Cone, who is in charge of training and equipping Afghan forces, said violence was rising and it would take time to complete the task of pacifying Afghanistan. "You can say you defeated them in a single campaign… but again, given the complex nature of the environment, they might be back again the very next year." The good news was that hundreds of former Taliban members have joined government forces, the bad news is the Taliban are increasing in size as new recruits flock to their side.
One can only wonder why voices like that of General Cone were not heard by the Bush administration when they began their crusades for freedom. Any expert on guerrilla warfare could have told Bush four years ago what Cone expressed — the enemy is out for the long haul, not short term victories.

Fire damages boiler at Columbia Regional Airport
Airport using space heaters to warm sections of the terminal
COLUMBIA, Mo. - Sections of the Columbia Regional Airport are currently without heat after a fire happened in the airport's boiler room on Saturday.
Most passengers in the airport did not notice any issues with the building's temperature, but several could tell it was colder when they first walked in.
"I just noticed that it's a little bit warmer down the hall than next to the doorway," said Michael Johnson.
Parts of the terminal are currently being heated by space heaters.
Columbia Public Works officials say repairs to the terminal's boiler room will cost between $20,000 and $30,000.
"We will have to rebuild the flue, which is fairly labor intensive and then we will have to replace some parts inside the boiler itself, but those numbers could change once they get inside and start doing the work," said Public Works spokesman Steve Sapp. "Currently parts are on order and the contractor expects to complete repairs somewhere between 15 and 30 days. The city is self-insured, so we have our own division that handles these types of things and the money will come out of the insurance fund."
Sapp says with the winter weather moving in for the weekend, passengers also need to check-in frequently with their air carrier, know the current flight status and plan ahead.

The Player's Companion for the Adventurer Conqueror King System Is Here!
by Tavis
Autarch is proud to announce that the Player's Companion, our first expansion for the Adventurer Conqueror King System, is now available for sale as a PDF and a hardback+PDF bundle.
The ACKS Player's Companion opens up the system's hood and gives you an unprecedented range of flexibility and customization in the characters that define your campaign and the spells they research during play. Like the core ACKS book, the Player's Companion was launched on Kickstarter, where 343 backers contributed $20,622 to make our shared vision a reality. Many shared their feedback as readers, playtesters, and gamers, while some backers made more direct contributions: at the Visionary level and above they specified the subject of illustrations by John & Laura Lakey and Ryan Browning; Legends contributed the characters that we've been using at convention games from Gary Con IV on; and Patron Deities worked with Player's Companion designer Alexander Macris to create some of the new character classes included in the book. All Kickstarter rewards have now been sent to backers, who are reporting at the Autarch forums and the Adventurer Conqueror King community on G+ that the book "looks awesome". We're glad to make it available to the general public!
Thanks to all of this support, we feel that the finished result is much better than we could have made it on our own, and the first review of the Player's Companion concurs: "If you're running ACKS and you want new classes, or if you're really really into DIY classes and spells, this is a must-buy". The fully bookmarked, printable PDF is $9.99 and is available at DriveThruRPG or direct from Autarch via our partner Game Salute. The hardcover book is 160 pages, and at $35 comes with the PDF as well; it's available from us through Game Salute and their select stores near you.
I've kept thinking about this.
My own ACKS campaign is still vapor but I played a session in a LL-AEC campaign that they've houseruled to use ascending AC + BAB, i.e. 19-RAW AC. Similar to 3rd ed. (We still need the RAW AC for a few things, such as Monk's instakill percentage, but the inverted AC is what we've listed on our sheets.)
Combat was still fast in our group. We used group initative and when it was the player's turn we all went crazy, rolling damage along with the d20 and shouting out things like I miss! or I hit, 5 damage—BUT that was only possible after a few rounds, once we had figured out the enemy's AC, and, what was worse, we had to add our BAB to every roll. I guess it was a good thing that the BAB was still 0 in most cases! The joys of early levels…
So works OK. Still, I find myself wishing that we used the ACKS system, but with the caveat that you knew the opponent's AC so you could add it to your attack throw before you even rolled the dice.
When you have to go "I hit by five", that means you also have to subtract and almost everybody is less comfortable, even though we all can do it, with substracting on the fly than addition or, better yet, a simple comparison.
Looking at the "equations" from Delta's post about Target 20, I think his priorities are backwards. I think the D20 should be placed alone on one side of the comparison operator.
As it is he has plenty of math that you have to do just after you roll the dice. I don't want that, I become very impatient once the dice have settled.
Even without my caveat, I'd still prefer the ACKS way because, as Tavis says, you can tell something is a miss for sure if you roll under your attack throw, and you can figure out the AC after a few rounds.
He were able to amalgamate the two and his cachet like a artisan was apprenticed aloft because of these factors at http://www.getoakleysunglasses.co.uk and their amore for design.

Extra Reach for Shooting the Moon
Now here's a novel way to shoot the moon: stack five separate Canon 2x extenders to boost the focal length of your 800mm lens. Supposedly (and surprisingly) this rig actually captured a decent photograph of the moon.
This was done by the folks over at BorrowLenses. Josh from BorrowLenses said that with 5 extenders, the moon was actually bigger than the frame and the whole setup was "bending and flexing":
With 3 extenders the photo turns out a lot better:

text: WASHINGTON, Feb. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have partnered to help new-car dealers reduce their energy consumption through the Energy Star program. To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click: http://www.multivu.com/mnr/53463-nada-launches-energy-ally-program-to-help-dealerships-reduce-energy-use (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120104/DC30041LOGO ) As part of this effort, NADA and EPA are encouraging dealerships to complete a brief survey that will give the agency a benchmark to better compare the energy usage of dealerships across the country and allow certification of those dealerships that perform well. The survey ( www.nada.org/energystar) asks dealers to share their yearly utility bills, square footage—inside and out—and different types of equipment used at the dealership. "NADA's ultimate goal is to help dealers learn ways to save energy and reduce their costs," said Don Chalmers, chairman of NADA's Government Relations Committee, and a Ford and Lincoln dealer in New Mexico. "Before we can begin the Energy Star certification process, we need to benchmark the energy usage of at least 500 dealerships." Main Street new-car dealers that participate in the survey and reduce their power usage will be recognized by Energy Star for their efforts to reduce the dealership's impact on the environment. To encourage participation, NADA has launched a new program called Energy Ally. Businesses, such as accounting, consulting and energy management firms, that assist at least five dealerships to complete the survey will be awarded an NADA Energy Ally designation. These contractors can use the recognition to market their services to other dealerships. (Information on how to apply to become an Energy Ally is available at www.nada.org/energystar). NADA has produced a video demonstrating the cost-saving benefits of implementing an energy efficiency plan highlighting efforts at a dealership in Christiansburg, Va. The video also highlights the importance of dealers taking the survey and the ease of the data input. The NADA Convention and Expo, which will be held Feb. 8-11 in Orlando, will showcase hundreds of exhibitors whose products help meet the energy-saving goals of dealerships. Motion sensors for lights, timers for thermostats, heaters that run on used motor oil, solar arrays for heating water and gathering electricity and roof cooling devices are just some of the products that will be on display at the convention, Chalmers added.

NASA may have found the man they are looking for. And he is Canadian.
Chris Hadfield, retired Royal Canadian Air Force colonel and current Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronaut, has been busy. Since last December, he has been orbiting the Earth aboard the International Space Station's (ISS), in company with American astronauts and Russian cosmonauts. In March, he will be the first Canadian to take command.
Hadfield has been engaged in high-tech experiments and research. But he's been doing a lot more than that: Taking stunning photos of the Earth, tweeting about life in space and getting chummy via Twitter with the stars of the legendary original Star Trek television series and films. (Indeed, the Canadian Space Agency arranged a live chat between Hadfield and William "James T. Kirk" Shatner on Thursday, and streamed it on their website.) He also "dropped" the puck, via video link, at the Toronto Maple…

Ryan Jarvis had been the toast of Plainmoor with a terrific brace that looked like winning the game. Yeovil equalised the first strike with an opportunist goal from James Hayter but the Gulls were seconds from victory when Hatyter again intervened with a late, late leveller.
Disappointment in the 90th minute turned to despair as Tom Cruise missed the only spot-kick from ten taken, handing Yeovil a 5-4 penalty victory.
United boss Martin Ling made four of the maximum five permitted changes under JPT rules to the side that defeated Accrington on the weekend, giving as many squad players a chance to impress as possible.
Michael Poke kept his place in goal behind the familiar central defensive partnership of Brian Saah and Aaron Downes, but the full-back slots were occupied by Daniel Leadbitter and Cruise, allowing Joe Oastler and Kevin Nicholson to take a back seat.
Damon Lathrope was replaced by Craig Easton in the midfield holding role, with Lee Mansell and Nathan Craig keeping their place in the engine room. Billy Bodin and Danny Stevens also retained the wing spots, but Jarvis was preferred to the rested Rene Howe in attack.
Yeovil manager Gary Johnson opted for a different approach to Ling, making just two enforced changes from the 3-2 loss at Tranmere Rovers on Saturday.
The suspended Joe Edwards made way for Dominic Blizzard and former Plymouth youngster replaced the cup-tied Paddy Madden as strike-partner for the experienced James Hayter.
A bright start from the Glovers had United immediately backtracking and Downes took less than two minutes to introduce himself to Reid with the sort of committed crunching tackle that has already made the Australian a cult hero with the Yellow Army.
The Gulls were exposed by a clearance that fell to Hayter in the left-channel and his early shot was scooped wide by Poke. The subsequent corner landed at the feet of Edward Upson, who thundered narrowly over from the edge of the box.
At the other end, United toiled without much luck until a foul on Bodin gave Craig a chance to fire in a free-kick from just a yard outside the penalty area, but both the initial shot and rebound were charged down by the Yeovil wall.
The action returned to the visiting attack with a scuttling shot from Hayter dragged comfortably wide for the watchful Poke. In front of the Yellow custodian, Downes remained the main man for United and his defensive bravery was soon rewarded with a goal for the Gulls.
The move started with a dazzling run from Bodin into the left channel, luring goalkeeper Marek Stech from his line before centring the ball for Jarvis to stab into the net from close range.
Full credit to Bodin for a fabulous piece of skill and perseverance to create the opening, and equal lumps of praise should be heaped on the shoulders of Jarvis for showing a striker's instinct to get in front of his marker to convert.
Once the celebrations had quietened, Downes returned to his miraculous individual performance, seemingly blocking every Yeovil thrust with any part of his anatomy available.
The one time the Gulls were caught floundering stemmed from a loose pass by Cruise allowing Reid a run on goal but Poke beat the shot away with his fists, and you-know-who was on hand to tidy up the mess.
Stevens then kept Stech keen with a stinging drive after battling work from Craig but United's glovesman had a moment to forget moments later.
The free-kick pumped forward looked harmless enough as Poke came to claim but the mass of bodies in front of him proved too much of an obstacle, and the ball slipped from his grasp. Ever the predator, Hayter was first to react, thumping into the empty net from eight yards.
Despite the overall brilliance of Downes, it was a goal the visitors probably deserved and they almost made it 2-1 when a low cross from Reid somehow evaded the onrushing Sam Foley at the back post.
Yeovil's period of dominance was ended by an incisive pass from Easton cutting through the visiting defence for Jarvis to run through on goal, but Stech did well to swiftly narrow the angle and turn the shot wide for the final act of an entertaining first period.
The to and fro continued after the break, and Foley came within a whisker of edging the Glovers in front with a steered volley fired inches wide of Poke's far post.
United were then indebted to Leadbitter for a terrific cover tackle on Hayter when the lively forward was released by some tidy approach work between Upson and Keanu Marsh-Brown.
It would prove a pivotal block, as United immediately broke down the left through Stevens, who cut inside his man before perfectly timing the pass for Jarvis. The striker took a touch to measure the chance before guiding a fine finish across Stech and into the far corner.
Once again, the build-up play from the home side was neat and incisive, but the plaudits will rightly go to Jarvis for another assured finish and his undoubted pedigree was shining through in a bright Yellow shirt.
Confidence was clearly flowing hard for Jarvis, as his next attempt was an audacious first-time volley after a deep cross by Stevens, and Stech needed fine reflexes to make the save at his near post. Now, this was a player who has scored in the Premier League.
Yeovil's second-half display had been flat and Johnson understandably opted for a double-change to liven up his troops for the final 20 minutes, introducing Gavin Williams and Byron Webster.
Ling then made his own switch, bringing on Niall Thompson for Jarvis, who was rightly given a standing ovation by the Plainmoor faithful. Another Gull to have the crowd purring was Craig, once again imperious with his passing and general composure on the ball.
As the game drew to a close, the Yeovil strategy changed to a lump forward from every set-piece in the hope towering defensive duo of Webster and Daniel Burn could cause havoc in United's penalty, prompting the protective introduction of Oastler for Stevens.
The Yellows were already looking forward to a home tie with Wycombe in the next round when Yeovil snatched an unlikely equaliser. The pressure had been building but the Gulls will be disappointed with the freedom afforded to winger Keanu Marsh-Brown.
His weaving run cut through the home defence and the low cross was met by Hayter to lash home from two yards out with just two minutes left on the clock. Howe came on for the dying seconds, probably more for his penalty prowess than anything else.
The whistle blew and JPT rules bypass the leg-sapping anxiety of extra time for the even more agonising ordeal of a penalty shoot-out. Both teams gathered in a huddle to choose their takers and the coin-toss landed in favour of all spot-kicks being taken in front of the closed away end.
First up was United captain Lee Mansell and the skipper's effort just had enough power to beat Stech and hit the top corner. James Hayter executed a perfect penalty in the same corner to equalise.
Nathan Craig strode forward for the next penalty and passed the ball into the net. Edward Upson adopted a similar approach with similar success.
Pressure turned to Tom Cruise and the former Arsenal youngster was unable to deliver, Stech producing a fine save to his right. Gavin Williams took full advantage by smashing Yeovil into a 3-2 lead.
Billy Bodin gave the Gulls hope with a brilliant strike into the top corner but Jamie McAllister hit a thunderbolt to restore Yeovil's lead.
Rene Howe knew he must score for any chance and he did the job in confident style but Keanu Marsh-Brown to stroke the winning penalty into the roof of the net. Harsh on United, harsh on Cruise but football can be a harsh game.

The Wilshire Theatre was at first called the Fox Wilshire. Wilshire theatre was opened on September 1930. Wilshire theatre was planned by Architect Charles Lee. The art deco hall and entrance hall were bedecked in silver and black with coral drapery and seats, a system credited in the opening program to Fox West Coast universal manager Harold B. Franklin.

Wilshire Theatre History and Information
In addition to the main organ of the Wilshire theatre, one of several cobbled up for Fox by Louis Maas and pipe maker Archie Marsh, the lobby for a time sported an Estey Minuette, a 2/3 portable limb worked into what seemed like a big impressive piano case. The Wilshire theatre was renovated in 1981; the house is now a stage venue.
On November 1953, Marilyn Monroe was in the middle of the luminary who went to the opening of How To Marry A Millionaire, also starring Lauren Bacall. That movie was merely the next to be filmed in Cinemascope. On December 25th of that year, Walt Disney showed Grand Canyonscope, the first Donald Duck drawing in Cinemascope, showing with the studio's 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea. On November 15, 1960, a particular presentation of G.I. Blues, starring Elvis Presley, took place; among the attendees were Cesar Romero and Ronald Regan as well. In the early 1970s, the Wilshire theatre hosted the elite engagement of the film, Woodstock, with an admittance price of $3.50, which was then considered shocking.

While most outcomes in sports are unpredictable, one thing was certain last Friday night in Springfield. Either the 0-2 Washington County Commanders or the 0-3 Taylor County Cardinals were going to win their first game of the season. After 48 minutes of play, it was the Cards who came away with a 28-27 win.
In addition to the Commanders coming up one point short on the scoreboard, junior back Quan Turner ended the night three yards shy of setting a new WC single-game rushing record.
The Washington County Commanderettes completed a season sweep of Bardstown last week by defeating the Lady Tigers 2-0 (25-14, 25-8).
The Wilderness Trace chapter of QDMA (the Quality Deer Management Association) will sponsor a Hunter Safety Class in the cafeteria at North Washington Elementary.
Classes will be held 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Sept. 17 and 18 and the final class will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sept. 19. You must attend class on all three days.
For more information, contact Brad Wingfield at (859) 375-2200.
What's in a name?
The idea for this week's column started in the same way that many of them do. My mind usually drifts off into space while I'm sitting around waiting for a play to happen or a golf pairing to clear the fairway. This week is no exception.
"It's not how you start, it's how you finish."
That is one of the oldest sports cliche's in the book, and if any game were a prime example of that phrase, then the Washington County Commanders' home opener against Western Hills last Friday night was a textbook case.
The Commanders got off to a quick lead when junior receiver Quan Turner ran the ball for a 56-yard yard touchdown. Junior Seth Mattingly's extra point gave WC a 7-0 lead 49 seconds into the game.
Sometimes, when a team is down and feeling weak, the best thing for them to do is pick themselves up by picking on a weaker opponent. And that's just what the Washington County Commanderettes needed last Tuesday night.
After going 0-5-1 last Saturday in the Marion County Tournament and losing 0-2 at Central Hardin last Monday, WC, which hadn't won since Aug. 22, was hungry for a victory as the 0-10 Lady Tigers of Bardstown looked for their first win in Springfield.
Both Washington County boys' and girls' golf teams hit the links last week in match play.
The boys hosted teams from Campbellsville and Taylor County at Lincoln Homestead Golf Course. The Cards came out on top as Taylor County shot 163, while WC finished with a 170 and Campbellsville finished last with 200.
Some individual performances have been outstanding for the Commanders as Aaron Spalding has already qualified for the state tournament Oct. 5-7 at Bowling Green Country Club.
SCC Sports Information
The St. Catharine College men's golf team held the lead after the first day of last week's golf tournament hosted by Georgetown College at Cherry Blossom Golf Course. But the Patriots couldn't hold on for the title as the host Tigers overtook them to win the 36-hole event by nine strokes.
"They wanted to win so badly," said SCC coach Joan Rizer, "but just didn't put two rounds together."
St. Catharine College's Laura Bowling, Mandy Gray and Taylor Malott are the Mid-South Conference Volleyball Players of the Week for the week ending Sept. 5, the conference announced on Monday.
The weekly honors are the first for all three student-athletes this season.
Idle Hour Park will be holding a cornhole league starting Sept. 8.
Games will take place Monday evenings at 6:30 p.m. and the league will last for five weeks.
Because of Labor Day, the first game will be played Tuesday, Sept. 8 with all following games held on Mondays.

Vatican consistory scuppers Asian bishops' meeting
"The thoughtlessness of the decision ... is a blatant example of the carelessness of Vatican officials toward Asian religious leaders," said a source close to the FABC. Note: this is an edited extract from a longer article.
Thomas C. Fox International
November 1, 2012
A gathering of about 100 Asian bishops originally scheduled for November had to be rescheduled after the Vatican announced Oct. 24 it would hold a consistory to create six new cardinals. After two years of planning, the 10th plenary assembly of the Federation of Asian Bishops' Conferences was set to be held in Vietnam Nov. 16-25 to celebrate 40 years of Asian episcopal pastoral work. However, it came into conflict with the announced Nov. 24 consistory at the Vatican. Protocol requires the Asian cardinals and other prominent Asian bishops attend the consistory. One of the newly named cardinals, Archbishop Luis Antonio Tagle, heads the archdiocese of Manila, the Philippines. The unexpected Vatican announcement forced Vietnamese bishops and FABC officials to find alternative dates, causing the bishops to rearrange their calendars and reschedule flights in and out of Vietnam. After days of uncertainty, including the possibility of canceling the Vietnam gathering altogether, a new set of dates for the assembly was agreed upon: Dec. 10-16 in its original location, the grounds of a seminary 50 miles west of Ho Chi Minh City. "I have no idea as to whether the Holy See was aware of our plenary," Scarboro Foreign Mission Society Fr. Raymond L. O'Toole, FABC assistant secretary general, wrote in an email. "A few weeks before the announcement of the consistory the Holy See did appoint a papal envoy for the Nov. 16-25, 2012, FABC plenary." "We had to make sudden adjustments because all the Asian cardinals will have to attend the consistory," he wrote. Those include the FABC secretary general, Cardinal Oswald Gracias of Mumbai, India; Cardinal Gaudencio Borbon Rosales, papal envoy and archbishop emeritus of Manila; and Cardinal Pham Minh Man of Ho Chi Minh City…. ....The announcement of the consistory caused considerable consternation in Vietnam and elsewhere, according to the source familiar with FABC operations in Hong Kong, where the administrative offices of the organization are based. The source asked not to be named because of the sensitivity of his position…. …."Many FABC bishops and cardinals were shocked and dismayed at the timing by the Vatican," the source said. "The thoughtlessness of the decision ... is a blatant example of the carelessness of Vatican officials toward Asian religious leaders." Once the initial gathering was scratched, it took "days of scrambling" to find a new date acceptable to the wide cast of Asian bishops. The Vietnamese bishops, the source said, quickly needed a new date to offer the Hanoi government. The FABC staff, meanwhile, felt it necessary to survey the Asian bishops before fixing a new date. "Finally, the Vietnamese demanded a decision be made or the conference be terminated in Vietnam," the source said. "The Dec. 10-16 dates were settled despite the fact that not all FABC episcopal members will now be able to attend since it is so close to Christmas."

The OKC Thunder are such a good team that we sometimes forget they've only been there a handful of years. And we also forget that Kevin Durant spent his first year in the NBA on the Seattle SuperSonics. The team didn't relocate until the summer after his rookie season.
Recent happenings suggest that Seattle will fall short in their attempt to bring basketball back to the city, at the hands of the Sacramento Kings, but that doesn't mean Kevin Durant can't still show his support.
Clearly, he hasn't forgotten where he came from as he donned a Sonics had today after practice. I just wonder if the owner of the Thunder finds it as amusing as I do. And don't forget, Durant is the same guy who wore a Bulls hat a few summers ago because it matched his outfit. But I digress.

This follows the need to explain to foreign people that a "notary" is nothing of what they often think it means.
Many frauds are perpetuated, and not only among the Hispanic community, and not only for immigration purposes, by persons who are "notary public" and mislead the people into believing they can help with legal matters, or that being a notary public provides some sort of added credibility.
In most countries, particularly civil law countries, these countries do not have "lawyers" in the American sense, insofar as that term refers to a single type of general-purpose legal services provider;[10] rather, their legal professions consist of a large number of different kinds of law-trained persons, known as jurists, of which only some are advocates who are licensed to practice in the courts. It is difficult to formulate accurate generalizations that cover all the countries with multiple legal professions, because each country has traditionally had its own peculiar method of dividing up legal work among all its different types of legal professionals.
Civil-law notaries (or latin notaries) are specially trained lawyers acting as public officers with jurisdiction over voluntary, i.e., non-contentious, private law. Unlike a notary public, their common-law counterparts, they are able to provide legal advice and prepare instruments with legal effect. They often receive the same education as advocates, trial lawyers, or any professional litigator such as barristers or attorneys in common-law countries, avocats in French-speaking countries, and so forth.
Civil-law notaries are limited to areas of private law. Private law resolves disputes between private parties and requires minimal or no government intervention. The most common areas of practice for civil-law notaries are in property conveyancing and registration, drafting contracts, business transactions, successions, and other estate related matters. Ordinarily, they have no authority to appear in court on their client's behalf; their role is limited to drafting, authenticating, and registering certain types of transactional documents. In some countries, such as the Netherlands, France or Italy, they also retain and keep property records – in minute form – in notarial protocols, or archives.
Difference from North American Notaries Public
A civil-law notary should not be confused with a notary public in the United States and Canada, who has none of the legal powers notaries enjoy at civil law. Rather, notaries public only have the power to administer oaths, take declarations or depositions from witnesses, acknowledge signatures, and certify copies, usually in conjunction with some legal process.
Notary Public is a 6 hours class costing $99.
For this reason, immigrants from civil-law countries where civil-law notaries exist, particularly those from Spanish-speaking nations, are often confused by the office of notary public and have been defrauded by dishonest notaries misrepresenting themselves as having legal powers. In some states there have been ongoing efforts to prohibit notaries public from listing themselves as Notario Público. Such a law has existed for more than fifteen years in California. Similar laws now exist in Texas, Illinois, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida.
Saint Ivo of Kermartin (17 October 1253 at Kermartin, a manor near Tréguier, Brittany, France – 19 May 1303 at Louannec, Brittany), also known as Erwann (in Breton) and Yves (in French), Yvo, Ives, or Ivo. He is a saint and patron of lawyers and abandoned children. Saint Ives is also the patron saint of Brittany. His feast day is on May 19. His first name is often associated with his family name, Yves Helory (also : Helori or Heloury, the orthography was not fixed at this time).
