One of the most ethical, dedicated and spectacular rescues that I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Exceptional individuals who sacrifice all to help the most needy animals.
Review from Guidestar
I have only been with MIMTHS since May of 2010. I learned about them from a display at a local event. I thought that the concept was a great idea. That is, to bring awareness to how much Michigan contributed to the defense effort in the 20th century. I am a retired member of the USAF, so that added to its attraction for me. I have been a volunteer at a few events since I joined. I enjoyed telling people about the organiaztion and how important it is not to forget our past.
Review from Guidestar
The L.I.F.E organization has helped us greatly with networking and gaining reliable and credible sponsors for our parkour team. They are helping us spread the knowledge and philosophy of parkour worldwide and are aiding us into eventually getting parkour into our after school programs so we can give our kids something healthy and safe they can do in their free time. Where they can gain knowledge about themselves and their surroundings and make it possible for growth.
Review from Guidestar
As a dues-paying member and a part of the founding and current Advisory Team, I have been impressed with the drive of the participants involved with GPNP to strengthen its reach and impact on the nonprofit sector of the greater Pittsburgh region. The work of GPNP in its infancy stage of development has been impressive and it is already considered a true difference-maker in the field.
I have really enjoyed my experience with GPNP! They have offered my organization the oppertunitiy to spread our message to a broader audience.
GPNP is a great organization that provides one voice that speaks for the nonprofit sector in the Southwestern PA region! I love it!

Laser hair removal safely and effectively eliminates unsightly body hair. How, you ask? Laser hair removal uses laser light pulses to selectively destroy hair follicles by targeting the melanin (color) in them. The pigment in the hair follicle absorbs the laser's light pulse, which alters the follicle enough to significantly retard hair regrowth. Because LaserAway uses only the most innovative laser hair removal techniques, you'll experience little to no discomfort and minimal side effects after a laser hair removal treatment. Some redness, a bit of itching maybe, but that's it. And you can minimize complications by carefully following post-procedure care instructions. To achieve optimal results you should space your laser hair removal sessions four to six weeks apart.

Working Papers (ICM/IKL) Emner "organizational performance"
Viser 1-1 af i alt 1
Meglio, Olimpia; Risberg, Annette (Frederiksberg, 2010)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This paper seeks to provide a different explanation to the claimed inconsistency in M&A performance research findings. While many M&A scholars contend that the problem lies in the variety of M&A performance measures, we believe that the reason for multiple ways to measure performance is that performance, like most organizational constructs, lacks universality. The variety of measures reflects the variety of the scholars' constructions of performance and of the measurement techniques adopted. The problem is not the variety of measure, but the comparison of different measures as if they were measuring the same feature of the organization. This could be a reason for the claimed inconsistency in M&A research findings. In this article, we therefore aim at answering "How do M&A scholars measure M&A performance"? To achieve this end we conduct a systematic literature review of empirical M&A research to understand how M&A scholars measure the M&A performance construct and how they construct this measure.

For some reasons, I have not been baking for awhile. Summer is ideal for bread baking but I rarely baked last summer, in response to the city office's setsuden (節電/electricity saving) campaign. Each household received a blackout schedule in the event of supply shortage. Residents in our zone did well in setsuden I suppose, we did not experience any blackout last summer.
Now, as the weather has becoming cooler and there is no need to use air conditioner (not even fan) throughout the day. No more setsuden, I started to bake again. I love this cake very much, soft and moist. And, another reason I fond on it is that it is not crumbly will not fall apart easily and make a mess when my boys eat.
I like to bake with organic blueberry, find it sweeter and taste better than fresh ones. The choice is yours.

Public media are absolutely necessary.
Catalonia, as has been usual in recent years, has starred in these three hundred and sixty-five days.
The CCMA, a corporation that brings together TV3, Catalonia Radio and the respective Digital Media, during the tripartite governments endured an attempt to rationalize its structure.
Could we say that the regime constructed by Jordi Pujol in Catalonia, and still untouched, is a neo-fascist, totalitarian, authoritarian or xenophobic regime?
Throughout history, protectionism has often gone hand-in-hand with nationalism.

On June 12, we will once again go to our respective polling places to cast a ballot for some of our 2012 candidates.
So many are asking why? We have a Republican and a Democratic primary that day. The reason we are having both is because more than one person is running for a particular seat. It is our duty as voters to whittle the process down to one person per party per seat.
For example, on the Republican side:
u Bob Bundy and Wayne Kersey are running for the Lancaster County Council District 3 seat

- American Women Advance to 10th Algarve Cup Final in Past 11 years
- Ashlyn Harris Earns First Cap at Senior Level
LAGOS, Portugal (March 11, 2013) – Alex Morgan scored a goal in the second half to earn the U.S. Women's National Team a 1-1 tie against Sweden and a berth in the 2013 Algarve Cup championship game.
With the tie, the USA advanced to its 10th Algarve Cup Final in the past 11 years and will face Group A champion Germany on March 13 with a kickoff and venue to be announced this evening. Fans will be able to watch the clash for the Algarve Cup on TV or online via Pay-Per-View and follow along on ussoccer.com's MatchTracker and on Twitter @ussoccer_WNT.
The USA finished first in the Group B with seven points from three matches, followed by Sweden with five points, China with four points and Iceland with zero points. China defeated Iceland, 1-0, in the other Group B match.
It was the first match the United States has played against Sweden since former U.S. head coach Pia Sundhage took over her native country. Sweden will face Norway, a 2-0 loser to Germany in Group A match, for third place.
Ashlyn Harris, the USA's starting goalkeeper at the 2002 and 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Cup tournaments, earned her first-career cap at the senior level and played well despite giving up an early goal.
Sweden got off to that fast start with a wonder striker from Lisa Dahlkvist in the fourth minute. The goal came after Sweden's star striker Lotta Schelin chased down a ball over the top and Harris was quick off her line to clear for what the U.S. team thought was out of danger.
But with Harris scrambling back to her net, Dahlkvist ran onto the ball and hit a superb first-time strike, blasting the ball into the top corner from a full 40 yards out.
The teams traded scoring opportunities throughout a spirited first half. Wambach headed wide with her first chance in the eighth minute while at the other end Boxx executed a vital challenge on Caroline Seger to block a shot at the top of the penalty area.
The U.S. did its best to unlock a stout Sweden defense, but the hosts of the 2013 European Women's Championships played as physical as they ever have. In the 18th minute, Megan Rapinoe took a nice touch to round her defender, before firing a shot from distance – well within her considerable range – that skimmed just wide from 20 yards.
Sweden meanwhile was a constant threat to launch counterattacks. The dangerous Schelin was the focal point of the attack and she nearly latched on to another ball over the top in the 29th minute before firing right at Harris with a shot from 16 yards in the 38th minute.
Kelley O'Hara had a nice chance at the end of the half when she went on a swashbuckling run from her left back position, cutting inside and beating two defenders before striking a right-footed shot just past the left post.
The USA closed out the first half the better of the two sides, but still with nothing to show for it on the scoreboard.
U.S. head coach Tom Sermanni's team started the second half as it finished the first, putting Sweden on its heels and finding the breakthrough goal in the 56th minute.
It came off a corner kick from the left side as Rapinoe whipped in a dangerous in-swinger. Morgan lost her mark in front of the Swedish goalkeeper and the U.S. forward was quickest to react, getting her head to the ball and powering home her first goal of the year to bring the U.S. level.
The WNT was firmly the better side now and went in search of the victory against their former coach. Wambach went close in the 57th minute, sliding to meet Rapinoe's curling cross but sending it just wide from seven yards.
Heather O'Reilly, who menaced Sweden with hard work all game, had a trademark thundering run in the 60th minute, scampering past the Sweden defense down the left side and curling a shot toward the right corner of the goal. Sweden goalkeeper Kristin Hammarstrom punched it clear and Morgan's follow up was blocked well by a defender.
Sweden was still dangerous on the break but failed to really test Harris in the U.S. net. Emma Berglund had two rapid fire chances in the 69th minute. The first was knocked down by Rampone and the second was fired miles over the goal by the Swedish defender.
As the USA worked hard to preserve the draw and the berth to the title game, central defender Becky Sauerbrunn snuffed out an end-to-end counterattack well in the 80th minute by getting back into the six-yard box to make a vital clearance.
The USA would fashion two more chances before the final whistle. Morgan blazed a shot over the goal in the 86th minute and Rapinoe forced a nice save from Hammarstrom in the 88th with the Sweden goalkeeper diving low to her right to keep out a sizzling strike.
The Algarve Cup is being distributed in the United States by Integrated Sports Media for live viewing on both cable and satellite pay-per-view via iN Demand, Avail-TVN, DIRECTV and DISH for a suggested retail price of only $14.95 per match.

Additional Notes:
- The USA advance to its 13th Algarve Cup Final in 18 years of competing in this tournament. The USA has won eight Algarve Cup titles overall, winning in 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2011.
- The USA lost in the Algarve Final in 1994 (to Denmark in penalties), 1999 (to China), 2006 (to Germany in penalty kicks) and in 2009 (to Sweden in penalties).
- The USA improved its unbeaten streak to 28 games, with the last loss coming against Japan on March 5 at the 2012 Algarve Cup in Portugal. During that span, the U.S. has scored 89 goals while allowing 21 in 24 wins and four draws.
- The match in the Algarve Cup Final against Germany becomes a first leg of sorts as the two sides will also meet each other in the following game for both teams, a friendly match on April 5 in Offenbach, Germany.
- #ChasingMia Update: Abby Wambach remains on 154 career goals as she continues her pursuit of Mia Hamm's world record of 158. Wambach had two chances to increase her tally, heading wide in the first half and putting a sliding effort just past the post early in the second half. She made way for Sydney Leroux in the 72nd minute.
- Tobin Heath, usually a flank midfielder, started the game in the middle at attacking midfield as Carli Lloyd was held out due to a shoulder injury.
- Morgan's goal was her 39th in 62 career caps.
- Rapinoe's assist was her 29th in 72 career caps.
- U.S. midfielder Carli Lloyd sat out the match with a minor shoulder injury.
- Goalkeeper Jill Loyden suffered a broken bone in her left hand during training on Thursday and will be out of action for up to three months.
- Midfielder Lauren Cheney also left Portugal due to a family matter.

Fáilte!Family owned and operated since the day we opened our doors in 1986, McBob's Pub and Grill, located at 4919 W. North Avenue, prides itself in our rich Irish and Scottish traditions. It is these same traditions that inspire us to share our extensive menu with our patrons in our neighborhood bar and grill. We offer up an array of American and traditional Irish dishes influenced by what our hearts and our stomachs love.
The menu started out small and simple. As the years progressed and the family grew, our niche was found. Piled high on light or marble rye bread, our Milwaukee famous corned beef is sure to please. These half-pound delights are what have made the McBob's name popular. If corned beef isn't your thing, our one-pound beef or chicken tacos are wrapped in a 12-inch flour tortillas are served everyday that starts with a T or S. On Wednesdays and Fridays you can order pan fried Perch, Walleye or Grouper fish fry paired with your choice of potato pancakes or American fries. We host an extended Sunday brunch until 3 pm with new specials everyweek. Anyway you slice it, the food is exceptional.

Sound familiar?
Once upon a time, Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe presented together at the Oscars. He told her to open the envelope because she made more money. Many raised eyebrows. I took it as a joke.
But as her star began to climb, as she became one of the highest paid, most popular actresses in Hollywood, so his sulky carby face began to make more and more appearances. And of course you know about the cheating. The rampant cheesy cheating. He'd be in the Cactus Club Yaletown in Vancouver and rotate 3 girls at once. He would text message corny ass sonnets. Total douche.
And then he met Abbie Cornish and he and Reese split up.
Ryan accompanied Abbie to Cannes this week. He did some press, not much, for The Bang Bang Club, and escorted Abbie to parties and premieres.
He also, according to Page Six hit up the VIP Room without Abbie and dragged a few blonde euro skankies around with him.
Meanwhile at the festival, the most well received, acclaimed film so far has been Jane Campion's Bright Star. If you are a fan of The Piano, you will be relieved that Bright Star doesn't disappoint. Not only – it's outstanding. And it stars…
Abbie Cornish.
So far the film is the one to beat in the running for the Palme. And perhaps Best Actress for Cornish?
I met with a very well respected film festival insider yesterday and he described Abbie's as "the performance of a lifetime". It's early days, yes, but so far, Bright Star is projected to do very, very well as the season progresses. Could hold up all the way to next February.
Sound familiar?
Abbie Cornish will eclipse him.
And I was just asking the other day, what will happen when Abbie becomes more successful than Ryan?
It's starting already.

NORFOLK, Va. A season-high crowd of 5,017 at Norfolk Scope Arena saw Brandon Bochenski tie the all-time AHL Admirals goal-scoring record and the home team fight tooth-and-nail with the East Division leaders. However, the Norfolk Admirals (15-18-1-0) fell to the Hershey Bears (24-8-0-2) 5-3 on Tuesday night at Norfolk Scope Arena. The Admirals now head out on the road for a three-game trip before returning to Scope to host the Syracuse Crunch on Friday and Saturday, January 8-9.
The Admirals out-shot the Bears 8-1 in the first 8:09 of the game. However, Hershey took control from there, out-shooting Norfolk 10-1 in the final 11:51 and taking a 2-0 lead with a pair of goals midway through the period.
An Alexandre Giroux goal at 8:29 opened scoring off a neutral zone turnover. Keith Aucoin skated the puck into the Norfolk zone and sent a pass to Andrew Gordon in the right circle. Gordon attempted a pass across the slot that was stopped by the leg of an Admirals defenseman. However, the puck stayed at the top of the crease where Giroux punched it in past a prone Norfolk netminder Dustin Tokarski.
The visitors doubled their lead just 36 seconds later. An Admirals attempted shot was blocked and began a Hershey rush. Steve Pinizzotto carried the puck into the Admirals zone along the left wing and sent a wrist shot past the blocker of a screened Tokarski at 9:05.
A spirited second stanza saw the teams exchange 30 shots 14 for Norfolk and 16 for Hershey. The Admirals got on the board just 2:56 into the period with Matt Syroczynski's sixth goal of the season. Syroczynski won a race for the puck in the left corner behind Hershey goaltender Jason Bacashihua and got it to Mitch Fritz at the left faceoff circle. Fritz stood stationary as he fended off a Hershey defender before dropping a pass to Syroczynski at the dot. Syroczynski skated into the slot and fired a wrist shot past the blocker of Bacashihua.
However, Hershey re-established their two-goal lead with a Chris Bourque breakaway goal late in the period. Francois Bouchard sent a long pass from the left point of the Hershey zone to Bourque at the middle of the Norfolk blueline. Bourque eluded Tokarski's poke check and sent a forehand shot past the prone netminder at 18:21.
The third period was full of drama, as the Admirals again closed the gap to a single goal just 2:28 into the period with Brandon Bochenski's record-tying goal. Syroczynski sent a pass from the left corner to Bochenski in the slot. Bochenski's quick wrist shot beat Bacashihua for a power play goal. The goal was Bochenski's 76th career Admirals goal, tying Casey Hankinson's AHL Admirals record for career goals.
Hershey once again answered to re-establish a two-goal lead. Bryan Helmer scored the first shorthanded goal surrendered by the Admirals this season at 5:02.
However, the Admirals wasted little time in closing the gap once again, as they made the score 4-3 on the very next shift with a power play goal. Juraj Simek accepted an Adam Hall feed in the left faceoff circle. Simek waited for a screen to develop before rifling a wrist shot from the left dot past Bacashihua for his seventh goal of the season at 5:26.
Norfolk kept the pressure on the Bears and Bacashihua throughout the final frame and lifted Tokarski in favor of the extra attacker in the game's final minutes. However, Bourque cemented the Bears victory with an empty-net goal with 57 seconds remaining for a 5-3 final score.
Dustin Tokarski (35 shots, 31 saves) suffered the loss. Jason Bacashihua (33 shots, 30 saves) got the win.
Norfolk was 2-4 on the power play. Hershey was 0-3.
The Admirals now embark on a three-game road trip beginning on Thursday evening with a New Year's Eve tilt against the Binghamton Senators. The puck drops at 6:05 p.m.
The next home action for the Admirals will be a pair of games against the Syracuse Crunch on Friday and Saturday, January 8-9. Friday

Today I'd like to talk about: The Yin and Yang of Desire — Dopamine, Prolactin and Testosterone.
Let's talk about love, lust and desire. But instead of looking at these things as social phenomena, let's look at the chemical reactions going on inside our bodies that make us feel and behave the way we do.
There are clear links between certain chemicals and our most basic drives, which explains, for example, why we feel horny one moment and utterly disinterested the next. Or why our sex drive peaks after exercise. At the core of our sexual and affectional interests and behaviors lie the two chemicals — dopamine and prolactin. In many ways they are complimentary to one another; dopamine turns on desire and prolactin turns it off.
Dopamine is a neurotransmitter. This is basically your body's pleasure and reward system. Our brains releases dopamine, to one degree or another, when we see, read or think about something sexy, taste something sweet, puff a cigarette, or come into skin-to-skin contact with another person. When dopamine levels are high, our libido goes into overdrive. Sometimes levels can be so dramatic that a person will neglect other essential bodily functions like eating and sleeping. Some "street" drugs —meth and coke among them — can mimic the body into thinking it's dealing with dopamine.
Dopamine is critical to the way the brain controls our movements. If there's not enough dopamine, we can't move, or control our movements. If there's too much dopamine, we are plagued with repetitive moments like jerking, tapping and twitching.
Get this; novel situations can increase dopamine releases. For example, hooking up with someone for the first time triggers especially high levels of dopamine. Curiously enough, these same high levels will not occur again during subsequent hookups with that same person. This is called the one-night-stand phenomenon; it's why you can be attracted to someone at first encounter but not afterward.
However, falling in love with someone can sustain high dopamine levels for a longer period of time. This explains why physical infatuation is at its peak in the beginning months of a relationship. Also dopamine floods the brain when we get drunk or take certain drugs, which is why drinking alcohol can make a potential partner look more attractive.
Prolactin is dopamine's foil. It causes dopamine levels to plummet. Prolactin is a hormone, as opposed to a neurotransmitter, like dopamine. It floods the body during orgasm, virtually shutting down the sex drive, which is nature's way of allowing us to attend to other essential bodily functions like eating and sleeping. Prolactin release in men will temporarily disable our ability to have an erection. This is called the refractory or recovery phase of our sexual response cycle. And prolactin is at least partially responsible for that happy, relaxed state after we cum. This is precisely the release women get while breastfeeding; in fact, the word "pro-lactin" directly indicates its role in milk production.
Prolactin primes the mind for long-term attachment — a role that helps the mother bond with her suckling child as well as lovers to each other. This means that if you stick around cuddling with your partner right after sex, you may actually start to like him/her more and more. This is called the pair-bonding effect. But prolactin's dopamine-reducing action has a darker side. It cancels the tolerance you may have for your partner's flaws.
While dopamine and prolactin are good indicators of the immediate workings of sexual pursuit, it is testosterone that best explains long-term changes in courtship. Testosterone is responsible for the masculinization of the adolescent male body during puberty. And it increases the dopamine levels that regulate our sex drive. But testosterone leaves its fingerprint on the body as much as the brain. It's the catalyst for changes in skin tone, fat distribution, musculature and demeanor, which are signals to others that this individual male is sexually mature and in good health.
However, if you get a fever or become depressed, your testosterone levels can drop significantly. Malnutrition or high levels of anxiety or stress will also interfere with testosterone levels. The most immediate effect of this is a decrease in libido, and a noticeable drop-off in energy levels as well as confidence. There's no doubt about it; testosterone levels will signal to potential mates that you are in the throws of depression, stress, anxiety or malnutrition. You will appear a little less attractive to people subconsciously. That's why a confident, dominant male with high-testosterone levels generally enjoy more mating success.
Testosterone levels are highest in the morning, then wanes throughout the day. It's also much higher in men in autumn and lowest in the spring.
However, sexual desire is still more complicated than is known to science, and there may be multiple archetypes of partners we're drawn to — there is evidence that aggressive high-testosterone men appear sexier to women and gay men for a one-night stand. But softer, more sensitive balanced men are more likely to tug at our heartstrings in a relationship. Scientists reason that the bulkier mate is more likely to be physically powerful and carry good genes to create strong children. While the slimmer guy is a more loving, reliable partner likely to help raise the kids so they survive to adulthood. The effect of this strange contradiction seems to be a biological predisposition against monogamy and sexual exclusivity.
But none of this is carved in stone. A man's hormone's levels increase when he is in a competitive environment or carries out acts of aggression, which can explain how guys seem to bulk up quickly when they go to prison or join sports teams. These levels decrease when he feels intimidated or humiliated, which might explain why those who get picked on at school stay skinny and mild-mannered compared to their peers. This in turn made them easier targets and only increased the likelihood of them being bullied.
This is not uncommon behavior among primate colonies that have huge alpha males looming over a population of smaller, submissive males and females. While this is not a perfect parallel to human social groups, it does go a long way in explaining how a social environment can be a precursor to physical body changes. And just so you know, our testosterone levels also drop during long-term relationships, giving the male brain a sense of stability and mellowness, easing off the drive to forage for new sexual partners.
Science alone lacks a moral element, and fails to explain, in a modern context, why we should desire to be masculine, aggressive, potent or dominant in the first place. In nature, the alpha-male is the most likely to enjoy reproductive success, but that isn't what gives our lives value today. We might have more success being an average male that falls in love and becomes a good provider. And in the modern world it's probably the more stable and sensitive man who is most likely to sire children.
Still, science gives important clues to what's going on in our minds and bodies and that of our potential partners. A lot of our basic inclinations are out of our control, but when we know what causes them or what to expect, we can work with them for the best outcome.

HOUSTON — China and Brazil lead the world in renewable energy employment, hosting nearly half of all green energy jobs, according to a new research report.
Worldwide, about 5.7 million people worked in the renewable energy sector in 2012 directly or indirectly, the International Renewable Energy Agency estimates in a report released this week. Of those, nearly one in three is based in China. Another 14 percent are in Brazil.
The United States is home to the world's third largest renewable energy workforce, with about one in 10 of the world's green energy jobs.
IRENA, an intergovernmental organization based in Abu Dhabi, concluded that the world's renewable energy jobs could more than triple by 2030 if supportive policies, training and educational opportunities are expanded.
Energy minister: Germany can't bear hefty green energy costs
"Around the world, policy makers are pursuing renewable energy technologies not only for greater energy security or environmental considerations, but also for the socioeconomic benefits they generate," the report noted. "The renewable energy sector has become a significant employer, with the potential for adding millions of jobs worldwide in the coming years."
The study considered jobs involved in manufacturing equipment, producing feedstocks and installing production capacity for power, transportation, buildings, and industry.
Solar soars
Biofuels and solar photovoltaics dominate renewable energy jobs, with about 1.4 million each in 2012, according to data in the report. In particular, employment in solar photovoltaics has soared, multiplying 13 times between 2007 and 2012.
That outpaced growth in the wind industry. Wind power employed about 753,000 people in 2012, more than doubling over the previous five years.
Solar expansion: First Solar announces plant for West Texas
However, IRENA projects that bioenergy will lead job growth in renewables, adding 9.7 million people to its payrolls by 2030 if supportive policies and training are put in place. By comparison, the group says wind would add 2.1 million jobs globally and solar photovoltaics would add 2 million.
Brazil's biofuels
In China, solar power dominates the green energy workforce while the vast majority of Brazil's renewable energy jobs are in biofuels, IRENA found.
Solar energy, both photovoltaics and heating/cooling, employs about 1.1 million of China's 1.7 million renewable energy workers. Meanwhile, Brazil is home to about 58 percent of the world's 1.4 million biofuels jobs, according to the report.
United States
The renewable energy industry in the United States is more diversified. The largest portion of green energy workers — about 35 percent — are employed in the biofuels sector. Biomass employs the next largest share, about 25 percent, IRENA found.
Politics: Conservatives form group favoring renewable energy
"The United States has seen overall expansion in renewable energy jobs, although wind and bioethanol employment have fluctuated," the report said. "During 2012, a combination of factors led to another drop in [bioethanol] employment — among them soaring feedstock prices, withering yields under severe drought conditions, and lower demand due to the economic crisis."
The solar industry — including photovoltaics, heating/cooling, and concentrated solar power — employs about 119,000 people in the United States, or 19 percent of the nation's renewable energy workforce. The rest of U.S. green energy jobs are in wind (13 percent), geothermal (6 percent) and small hydropower (1 percent), according to the report.

Kyle Christy will be honored inside the O-Dome on Wednesday night for his ability that likely could have him punting a football over it.
The Florida Gators' strong-legged sophomore has been named the 2012 winner of the College Football Performance Awards Punter trophy. He'll be honored during the first half of Florida's men's basketball season opener against Georgia, which tips off at 7 p.m.
Christy, who is the fourth UF punter to receive a CFPA award, led the SEC in punting and was a finalist for the Ray Guy Award in 2012. He averaged 45.8 yards per punt with 25 of 50-plus yards and 27 inside opponents' 20-yard line.
The Brownburg, Ind., native was a first-team All-SEC punter and was named to All-American teams by CBSSports.com and Walter Camp Football. He set a single-game school record with an average of 54.3 yards per punt, including a season-long of 64 yards, in a 44-11 home win against South Carolina on Oct. 20.
Florida's Andre Debose and Chas Henry earned CFPA honors in 2010 while Caleb Sturgis won in 2011.
Perhaps after receiving the honor on Wednesday night Christy can go outside to find out if he can in fact boot one over the O-Dome.

Before leaving town last week I had the pleasure of doing the crafting quests in New Halas on both the evil and good sides in Everquest II.
The evil quest line has you trying to ensure an exclusive trade agreement between New Halas and Neriak using mafia tactics. Spinning wheels are broken, cloth is trashed with acid, and bombs are planted. On my next alt through that zone, I did the good quest line and discovered that I was largely reacting to stuff my last character did. "Some asshole trashed all the town's spinning wheels, could you make some new ones?" I even ended up setting the trap that my first character fell into. Very cool.
Even more impressive, I did the evil quest chain for the second time on yet another alt, and the quest dialogue made more sense because I had done both sides of the chain. For example, my evil quest giver couldn't figure out why the demand for fine china didn't spike after I trashed a crate of china in a storage house. That would be because my good alt crafted replacements.
End spoilers.
The thing that strikes me about these interlocking quest chains is that 90% of players will never notice the care that has gone into them. First off, to do either chain you need to be into crafting and know about the quests. Nothing in game tells you that there is a quest chain you can do for free access to all the tier II rare recipes, much less where to go to get the quests. Even assuming you are a hardcore crafter and do the research to find these quests, what are the odds that you will end up doing both the evil and good quest chains? Much less evil-good-evil as I did them.
The attention to details most players will never notice is even more clearly illustrated by a wolf that lives in the New Halas crafting hall. His name is Hagley:
Having run past him on a string of alts, I noticed that he has several behaviors. If you run by him on an evil character, he will growl and bark as you pass. If you run by on a good character he will either wag his tail or sit and look at you. His name is also a reference. Hagley is one of the five Everquest Online Adventures servers. I also presume it's an Everquest (the original) reference that I'm not familiar with.
EQ II is (along with EQ and EQOA for that matter) full of neat little details that I expect most players will never notice. Personally, these things suck me in and make a game a lot more "sticky." I'm still playing and enjoying EQ II well past the month or so that most MMOs get from me.

Outlook on '14 Class and Recruiting Question
Freep link warning.
It's nice to see Wilton Speight taking the Shane Morris role for the '14 class, but I found this quote interesting:
"After this crazy day settles down, I'm going to try to get coach (Al) Borges on the phone, and I want him to get me a list of who they're targeting and who I need to start working on, because I plan on this class being the top recruiting class they've had in awhile. Every day, (I'll) contact as many guys as I can, build friendships and draw trustworthy relationships," he said. "I think they're taking 16 (players). Put together a group of 15 guys and myself to be as close to perfection as possible."
Which leads me to a few questions I'd the MGoCommunity to take a stab at. First, why such a small class? With him in the mix, plus Ferns, and hopefully the McDowell and Hand tandem, that leaves only twelve spots. Also, how do you think our recruiting compares to that of Ohio in terms of raw talent and addressing areas of need?

March's challenge can be found HERE
Hello Everyone...it's Sandie here aka Rhedd....and its my turn to share a tutorial with you all.
I hope you will be inspired by it.....
Altered Dominoes
Some time ago I bought a set of crystalline dominoes...I just love the cold feel of them and they are as near as possible to original dominoes which were made of ivory. I have used the black plastic type ones, which are smaller and also mdf ones, which again are smaller than the original dominoes, none of which worked out that well for me to be honest.
For the purpose of this tutorial I have altered 3 Dominoes.
I got my grandson to drill some holes in a few dominoes, you really need a strong hand and a vice, which I haven't got. I removed the spinner from the black line.
The pinky coloured one, I lightened with blending fluid at it was too dark for the stamp I wanted to use.
I selected the bales and screw eyes for the chain and other embellishments for decorating.
Using waterproof ink I stamped the images I wanted on two of dominoes, taking care not to press too hard as the stamp will slide and blur the image...note.... the image on the light domino looks blurred, that is the style of image on the stamp and not caused by me pressing to hard.
Here I have added some glitter, gems and keys.
I coloured the edges with black marker pen.
I coated all the domino fronts with glossy accents (take care not to fill in the holes) and left these overnight to completely dry.
Once these were dry I embellished them.
You will need to add some strong glue to any eyes that you screw in to the domino, leave it to dry, it needs to be secure as it takes the weight of the hanging embellishments.
I used E600 glue for the screw eyes and the bales...make sure you have good ventilation while using that glue.
I am really pleased with how these looked...you can embellish with as much or as little as you wish.
Many Thanks for dropping by...would love to hear your comments...x

NEKCA, NEKLS to open medical office in Canaan
CANAAN - By late winter, residents in the Canaan area, one of the most rural areas of the state, will have a medical clinic in their community.Indian Stream Health Center in Colebrook, NH, plans to open a satellite medical office at Canaan's Northeast Kingdom Community Action (NEKCA) building as soon as March 2014. Indian Stream Health Center obtained a federal grant of $456,793 from Sen. Bernie Sanders to open the clinic."This is great," said Joe Patrissi, NEKCA executive director of the partnership between the two entities. "It means low-income people will have access to health care."The announcement of the clinic opening comes several months after the Vermont Department of Health named Essex County as the highest risk area of the state as far as health is concerned. Essex County is also known as having one of the highest poverty rates in the state.Please see the Newport Daily Express Tuesday for the complete story.

Open Spaces
Speculations on Openings, Closings, and Thresholds in International Public Media
Friday, March 1, 2013
48 hours to go until our FLEFF Kick Off event, Upstate Filmmakers Showcase, on Sunday, March 3 at 4 pm..
Why do we need to sell out this screening?
Digital conversion is the biggest challenge facing the film industry since the coming of sound in 1927.
The digital conversion offers pristine images and perfect sound. Scratches, sound compression, ripped films, and torn sprocket holes disappear, spectres of legacy analog forms.
No more yelling "focus" from your seat. It will be perfect: a blissed out nirvana of image, sound, popcorn.
But behind all perfection lurks a nasty political economy that constitutes a David and Goliath story pitting the large and monied against the small and underresourced.
The large transnational media corporations and their ancillary boutique distributors have successfully pushed for DCP, the new format. The cost savings for distributors is enormous: a 35mm print of a feature can cost anywhere between $2,000-5,000 for one print, while a DCP-basically a movie on a hard drive the size of an evening bag- of the same film costs as little as $500.
The transnational media corporations stand to save over $1 billion a year through the conversion. And yes, that was NOT a typo. 1 billion a year.
But what represents an enormous, greedy cost savings for distributors--most of whom are corporations larger than most nation states-- translates into a huge expenditure for exhibitors, especially for smaller art cinemas without corporate backing.
80% of all theaters in the United States have converted to digital projection. Almost all of them are large chains like Cinemark and Regal, monsters in the entertainment industry food chains.
The remaining 20% are small art cinemas, local cinemas, museums, repertory venues, and specialty houses. They are community-based, often either locally owned, coops, or non-profit. They show films no transnational multiplex would touch, such as almost any film with subtitles from a country other than the US.
According to entertainment industry trade press sources, somewhere between 1,000 to 2,000 cinemas will go dark by the end of this year. They will go out of business, leaving a larger chunk of the viewing landscape to large corporate multiplexes.
According to Scott Bliss, executive director of Cinemapolis, 35mm prints will be extinct as a first run exhibition medium by July 2013.
A digital projector costs between $65,000 to $80,000. Cinemapolis has five screens--in fact, it is one of the only multiplexes for art cinema in the United States. Two cinemas have at this writing been converted to digital. The theater needs to raise $350,000 for the conversion. They are about 2/3 of the way there,thanks to the generosity of contributions from the Ithaca community and its loyal movie-goers.
The Upstate Filmmakers Showcase will be held in Cinema 5, which has 185 seats. If we sell out, the digital conversion campaign receives in influx of $1,500--a significant contribution towards their goal.
All of the filmmakers, the curator, and the moderator are donating their time and films on Sunday to help the theater in this effort.
What can you do?
Spread the word to all of your friends, explain to them how serious and pressing this current situation is. Forward the link to this blog. Let them know their $8 is the best 8 bucks they ever spent. It's the cost of two lattes.
And this 8 bucks--less than a a month's subscription to Netflix-- makes a strong stand for cinema beyond action films, superstars, spectacles, CGI, special effects.
8 bucks says NO to going dark.
It's a stand for cinema across borders.
It's a stand for cinema with subtitles, bringing us into other worlds.
It's a stand for cinema with other people gathered together in a public place.
It's a stand for cinema for the rest of us ,with the rest of us.
Will we see you on Sunday, March 3, at Cinemapolis, at 4? I hope so.

September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. The month may be nearly over, but suicide prevention is a topic that needs to be discussed year-round.
In the U.S., 105 people kill themselves every day — that's one person every 13.7 minutes. But someone attempts suicide every 32 seconds. That translates to almost 1 million Americans a year.
Suicide is the third-leading cause of death for people ages 15 to 24, behind accidental deaths and homicide. In 2010, the latest year for which data is available, young people accounted for 15.6 percent of suicides.
In New York, suicide rates are actually among the lowest in the nation. But even with those low rates, according to the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, New York lost 30,533 potential years of life to suicide in 2010.
Suicide doesn't just affect the person committing the act. It is estimated that for every person who attempts or succeeds in killing him or herself, six people are immediately affected by it. It's also estimated that there are 4.8 million suicide survivors in the U.S.
Mental illness and depression are conditions that should not be stigmatized. People should not feel ashamed about getting the help they need to live happier and more productive lives. Almost one in 10 American adults are affected by clinical depression, and most of them do not seek treatment.
Suicide is not something that has to happen. It is preventable. If you know the warning signs of suicide, you could help save the life of a friend or loved one.
Warning signs
According to the Long Island Crisis Center, there are many potential red flags for suicide. One of the first is when someone starts talking about death often. If a person seems to obsess over death or disappearing, or talks about people being better off without him, it can often be a sign that he is contemplating suicide.
Changes in personality and behavior can also be warning signs. If someone becomes unusually sad, anxious, or tired and apathetic, or if he is having trouble concentrating on school, work or mundane tasks, he may be at risk. Also, if he starts abusing drugs or alcohol or acting recklessly, it could be a sign that he no longer cares about living.

Oregon Trail Trash
Zak Stone brings a host of riders from around the country to ride, Oregon style.
For those of you who have not heard already, Zak Stone is making a movie, and it's called Not What 'Cha Think. And knowing Zak, it comes as no surprise to me that he is making sure to capture not only top notch wakeboarding and wakeskating, but also the fun and crazy lifestyle that he and the Oregon Trail Trash crew live for. The Hippodrome stop of last year's Toe Jam tour in Washington was prime territory for OTT to make their presence known, but Zak didn't want the good times to end there. So he invited a slew of us back to his home in Salem, Oregon, for a week of winching, filming, and everything else in between.
The crew that was compiled seemed to be perfectly fitting for NWCT, and was one of the geographically diverse groups of wakeskaters I have ever seen. We had Brandon Rau from Michigan, Ben Horan from Georgia, Bret Little from Texas, Keaton Bowlby from Nevada, Reed Watson from California, Gabe Paulson from Idaho, and from Florida was Steve Campbell, myself, and Jeff McMurtrie manning his photo gun. Seeing all these underrated riders from all over the United States completely shredding the gnar was living proof of the progression of wakeskating. Definitely not your average trip of top pros from Orlando.
Zak was ready for us: He had his house open, the winch ready to go, and a sweet rail setup down the street in a little finger of the Willamette River, his local stomping grounds. The rail run was great, and entirely winch driven by none other than OTT's Andrew Belzer, winch driver extraordinaire! It doesn't hurt that Zak has the best winch money can buy, The Hive. Most of our days consisted of shredding the river rail run, which included an incline rail, mini-waterfall, and incline box. It was definitely a journey of a winch pull, and created some unique opportunities for different lines of tricks to be done. On top of all that, we could always take Zak's boat out on the river and do some filming there as well. Definitely a good hang out spot to get some footage.
Zak also wanted to make sure we got a good taste of the local nightlife scene as well, so he took us one night to a lovely little place called Club Sapphire to hear one of his buddies spin the tables a bit and DJ for us as we watched Horan dance with the local talent, apparently imported from Alaska. By the end of the night we were all on the dance floor in a circle taking turns busting out a move or two. Turns out water dancing is still the only form of dance moves any of us are very skilled at "busting out." Zak was also kind enough to organize a northwest Esoteric premier at the Big Kahuna bar and grill. The highlight of the night though was probably the fight that broke out right outside the doors, or maybe lighting off large amounts of illegal fireworks back down by the river, then later hearing about how much trouble Zak got in for it. Sorry, buddy.
Later on in the week the crew became hungry for some good, solid, urban winching, and Zak took us to a couple spots he had found, mainly this fishladder drop right behind a dirty taco joint. The gap was nearly perfect: the landing was deep and safe and we hit it for upwards of seven hours without ever getting hassled. Watson stuck like five different tricks in his first five hits, and tons of other stuff went down from Rau, Horan (cover shot!), and Zak. One of the sickest things though was seeing how ridiculously close Southside Steve was getting to sticking a frontside flip down this beast, and also seeing Kyle Walton show up and front three it in like two tries.
If you're eager for what Not What 'Cha Think has in store, I can say for sure right now that the video is going to have one of the most fun, positive vibes ever captured on film. Zak wants to really portray how much fun wakeskating can be, no matter your skill level, and also prove the versatility of the sport by showing all the different aspects of it, such as cable and winch riding. Buy this video once it comes out, and anytime you get steamed about how many tries it just took you to land a three shove, just pop this bad boy in and you'll remember just how much fun you should be having. Thanks, Zak!

Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for his hard work on this file.
The member is absolutely correct that the finance committee has no work to do. The Liberals have proposed no agenda and no bills. Conservatives put forward two motions to study jobs and to study the long-term financial impact of this budget, and the Liberal members on committee voted those Conservative motions down.
Canadians sent Conservatives here to do work. Unfortunately, Liberal members on that committee do not think that way.

Blog Interrupted
Not long after our daughter was diagnosed with anaphylaxis, I began talking to Anaphylaxis Canada (AC) about joining the team. This week I was happy to receive news that I have been appointed as a Director on the Anaphylaxis Canada board.
I have tried to adopt AC's pragmatic and balanced approach when managing our daughter's severe food allergy, both at home and in our community. After spending the past nine years on charitable boards, (most recently six years with Covenant House Vancouver), I am excited to offer my skills, energy and passion for the cause of food allergy and anaphylaxis, to Laurie Harada and her so-called 'A-Team'.
As an Anaphylaxis Canada Director from British Columbia, I will focus on the development of a local presence in this province. In 2007 the BC Ministry of Education passed the "British Columbia Anaphylactic and Child Safety Framework" and the next step is to support those who will implement this important ministerial order.
My involvement with Anaphylaxis Canada will also include writing a column about our experiences as parents (details forthcoming). Unfortunately I will not have the bandwidth to author a column, become involved in British Columbia and author this blog, so NoPeanutsPlease will be offline for the forseeable future.
During the past 18 months you have visited the blog almost 12,000 times and enjoyed almost 200 posts. I thank you for your support and encouragement! It's been a fabulous experience and has truly helped me in our journey as parents managing anaphylaxis.
Though I am disappointed to interrupt NoPeanutsPlease just as it was gaining significant momentum, I am very excited to be in a position to make an even greater contribution to the food allergy and anaphylaxis community.

Thoughts on War
Patrick Henry was a lawyer, patriot, orator, and willing participant in virtually every aspect of the founding of America. He is a symbol of America's struggle for liberty and self-government and was the first governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia under its new constitution.
(Requires Quicktime, or other MP3 player)
I have been desired to express my sentiments regarding the thought of going to war. No man loves war, especially those who fight it. Those who have fought it dread the notion of their sons and grandsons also engaging in the horrors of war. But at times, there is no other course.
We must first exhaust all peaceable, reasonable, and constitutional means at having a solution to our troubles, but when they are exhausted, well...'tis as I said at the second convention in Richmond town at the town church, we have done everything that could be done to avert this storm from coming on. We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne and have implored its interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament.
Our petitions have all been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the very foot of the throne! In vain, sir, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for hope.
If we wish to be free — if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending — if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained — we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!
Richard Schumann interprets the character of Patrick Henry for Colonial Williamsburg.

An attempted robbery early Friday at a northwest side convenience store didn't net a quartet of bandits the cash they wanted, but they were able to walk away with a snack.
Ardmore Police Department reports indicate the robbery occurred about 1:25 a.m. in the 600 block of 12th Avenue NW. The four males, one armed with what was described as a "long barrel" firearm, entered the store and demanded money. But the holdup didn't go as planned.
The foursome fled without getting their hands on even one greenback. However, during their getaway they did manage to nab beer and cotton candy.
No injuries were reported.
Investigation continues.

In the deep, dark hills - Justified returns for Season 4
Justified Season 4 preview
Over the holidays I tried to explain Justified to my parents and the best I could come up with was "a buddy cop show with a trigger happy, emotionally damaged Marshal and a neo-Nazi white supremacist". Ah Justified, how I love thee. There's nothing else like you—the weirdest bromance and bizarrely deep friendship—on television.
Season 4 of Justified starts tonight after the finale for season 3 left Raylan Givens hanging in a pretty tough spot. His on-again/off-again situation with ex-wife Winona was officially off for the last time, and though she'll be having his kid, Winona won't be propping up the remains of Raylan's emotions anymore. The bigger sucker punch by far, though, was Raylan's revelation that his dad, Arlo, shot State Trooper Tom because he saw a cop in a cowboy hat and didn't particularly care if it was Raylan or not. Season 3 ended on an emotional downbeat, and now it's time to see how Raylan claws his way back up from the abyss.
Season 4 will be without some favorite characters as Dickie Bennett and Dewey Crowe have both been ruled out for this run, but showrunner Graham Yost let it slip that they're planning on six seasons to complete Raylan's arc and that Dickie and Dewey will likely come back later on. I'm a little bummed that Justified has a sell-by date, because I love it so much, but then, my biggest problem with 99% of what's on TV is that shows too often overstay their welcome, so I appreciate the plotting that goes into knowing when your story is complete. But six seasons—that means we're halfway through.
Though we have no Dickie or his lunatic hair (which actor Jeremy Davies cuts himself to achieve that signature "doing meth down in the holler" look) or the hapless Dewey, season 4 does have a few new face in store. The big one is comedian Patton Oswalt (who is actually a good actor too -- see also Young Adult, Big Fan) as a local cop who knew Raylan back in high school. His character's bio includes "tells the same football story over and over again". The idea of someone hero-worshipping Raylan, especially the potential that has in Oswalt's hands, is a winner. We'll also being seeing more of Lindsey the Sexy Bartender.
And I'm hoping we get more of Deputies Brooks and Gutterson. Brooks (Erica Tazel) has great spiky energy with Raylan that I always crave more of. She so clearly wants Raylan to be the jumped up redneck she's been struggling against her whole career (at the very least), and the look on her face every time he defies her expectations is funny. But Brooks got shortchanged in season 3, as it was Gutterson who emerged as Raylan's frequent ride-along deputy. Cool in his own right, Gutterson has turned into Raylan's most interesting co-worker. His wit is so dry even the bone-dry Raylan has to double-take every time he thinks Gutterson has made a joke, just to be sure. "More Gutterson" became a steady refrain by the end of season 3.
But let's not kid ourselves. Justified, for all that it's about Raylan Givens, is really Boyd Crowder's show. Season 4 is teasing Boyd's return to "preaching" and so far, he looks like the only Big Bad in the landscape, though Ron Eldard has joined up to play a former military friend (enemy? With Boyd, isn't it kind of the same?) of Boyd's. The last couple of seasons have seen Raylan and Boyd working together quite a bit to take down other bad guys—albeit, for entirely different reasons—so it would be nice to deal with them once again returned to their own sides of the line and fighting each other just as much as they flirt. Season 4 of Justified promises to be everything we love about the show, plus Patton Oswalt.
Raylan's body count so far: I tallied it up and I've got the grand total at 15, with 3 wounded (Boyd and Arlo from season 1 and the "black hat" Nix from the season 3 opener has officially been ruled a wounding—this is what I do with my spare time), plus 1 "disarming" (Quarles in season 3). In the wake of the gun violence in 2012, though, I wonder if Justified won't change gears with all the shootings.

I like this book because it has cars : my favorite thing. My favorite part is the wet and dry cars because the wet car is in the ocean and the dry car looks like a fish. This book makes me think of all different kinds of cars.
Other kids should read this book because it has cars in it. I think other kids would like to read this book if they like cars, too.

After graduating from Jellico High School in Jellico, Tenn., Jane worked as a telephone switchboard operator for Jellico Telephone Company. In the late 1940s she met the man who would be the love of her life, Ralph Church. They were married Jan. 21, 1949. They lived in Petersburg, Ind., Ralph's hometown, for several years and Jane worked for a few years for Petersburg Telephone Company. In the late 1950s they returned to Jellico.
They raised two children, a son, Michael, and a daughter, Lisa. In 1963, the family moved back to Petersburg, and Ralph and Jane lived there until returning to Jellico in 1990 after Ralph's retirement from Old Ben Coal Company. Ralph passed away in 2001 and Jane moved to Moab, Utah, in 2009 to live with her daughter, Lisa, and Kelly Thornton, whom Jane also thought of as a daughter.
A deeply religious woman, Jane was a devout Methodist and a member of the Jellico United Methodist Church. In Moab, she attended the Community Church. Wherever she lived, Jane was known for her gracious spirit and her kindness and generosity to friends, family and others, especially those in need. She volunteered for many charitable organizations throughout her life as well as volunteering at nursing homes in Petersburg and Jellico.
Jane is survived by her son, Michael Church (Janice), of Novi, Mich.; daughter, Lisa Church, of Moab, Utah; and three grandchildren, Amanda Kalinowsky (Peter), of South Lyon, Mich., Daniel Church of New York, N.Y., and Jeremy Church of Mount Pleasant, Mich. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Ralph; her parents; sisters, Ruth Vermillion, Elizabeth "Betty" Vermillion, and Lillian Davenport and her husband, Samuel Davenport; and brothers, Eugene Vermillion, Robert Vermillion and Charles Vermillion, all of Jellico.
The family wishes to thank the nursing staff of Moab Regional Hospital and Dr. John Sanders for the loving care they provided to Jane during her final days. We also thank Mearl Sheldon at Spanish Valley Mortuary in Moab for his help in arranging Jane's transportation back to Tennessee.
Online condolences may be sent to the family at www.SpanishValleyMortuary.com.
Jane has been returned to Jellico, where she will be buried next to her husband, Ralph, in the Snyder-Vermillion cemetery. A visitation is scheduled for Dec. 14 from 5 to 7 p.m. at Cox and Son Funeral Home in Jellico. Funeral services will be at 7 p.m. that evening. Burial will be at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 15.
