Mayor Don Wesely today led the dedication ceremony for a new parking lot and streetscape improvements at the Bottlers Building, 643 South 25th Street. The building houses the Lincoln Public Schools (LPS) Arts and Humanities Focus Program and several small businesses.
"Every since the building was developed in 1998, there have been concerns about the lack of parking and street lights at the site," Mayor Wesely said. "I'm pleased the city could play a role in making these improvements which address both parking and safety concerns for students, teachers and others who use the building."
The city used $190,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to develop the public parking lot and streetscape. The property was acquired by the city when the Rock Island railroad line was removed.
Also participating in the dedication were LPS Superintendent Phil Schoo and Kent Thompson of Bottlers, LLC and Thompson Realty Group. Thompson headed the development group which purchased and renovated the former Coca-Cola bottling facility, which had been vacant for many years. Private investment in the building is estimated at $1 million.
Three of the businesses in the Bottlers Building -- Suiter Medical, Bottlers Salon and Homestead Mortgage -- previously received financial assistance from the city through the job creation loan program, also funded by CDBG money. The city's $100,000 investment in the three businesses leveraged $150,000 in private investment. The businesses have created 14 new jobs so far and are expected to create eight more. Other businesses in the Bottlers Building are Chase Fitness, the Edge Gym and Closeout Central's office and warehouse space.

Digging deeper and verifying the info I've found I've encountered those pesky errors which if perpetuated throw everyone off, and result in lost time an money.
- The first error can be filed under don't believe everything you read. Mistakes can appear even in the best books. The above snippet states Rebecca was married to Joseph when she was actually married to James Forgey son of Samuel Forgey. Need to strike this Joseph from my records for Augusta, Virginia.
- The next error seems to come under the heading repetition. Sometimes when someone is transcribing a record they may repeat a name in the wrong place. I believe Forgey was repeated twice at some point by someone transcribing a document. We know James Forgey was married to Rebecca Clements. Her sister Margaret was said to have been married to Samuel Forgey. Now I am finding she was likely married to Samuel Davidson . So it looks like there was a repetition error and his name was misrecorded as Forgey. So Elizabeth Forgey born 1781 may have been the daughter of Samuel Forgey Jr. and Martha Campbell, instead of Samuel Forgey and Margaret Clements.
So now I believe I am on the right track. I am leaning towards believing that it is more likely than not that the William, Joseph, and James I have tracing are descendants of Samuel and Sara Forgy. It's seems Samuel Forgy and Sara Wilson were married in 1762 in Paxtang, PA. You may say how can this be when their son James Forgy was born in 1752? The will states Sara was James Forgey's mother not stepmother? Well some people in those days could be said to have married at first and other married at last. Meaning some were not officially legally married when some of their children were born. They may have lived in backwoods areas where it was not easy to get a marriage performed. Some may have worried about the legality of a backwoods marriages and may have gone through the ceremony again later also? They may not have had a church wedding the first time and had a second church marriage? In this case they may have married in Ireland had some question about the legality of their marriage for some unknown reason? It's also possible that Sara was James Stepmother and this fact wasn't stated?
So we have the couple Samuel and Sara and no William listed as a child? As it turns out Sara was pregnant in 1770 when the will was written and we don't know the name of the child? Could have been our William?
Another unknown is the names of all of Samuel Forgey II children. We also don't have the names of Samuel the 3rd's children. With all these unknowns it's difficult to place William, Joseph, and James. I believe the origins of these men will be found when we find out more about all of the Samuels in Samuel and Sara's line and get the name of their unborn child

Jacob wrote:a religion is a set of rules, a code, a list of things to do and not do
That's not quite true. Most religions have the following:
- A belief in some kind of supernatural being,
- A theory about how the world was created,
- Some kind of basic rituals/ceremonies,
- Rules about what is right and wrong, what life and death is, what happens after we die, and some thoughts about mankind and whether or not we have a soul.
That's the absolute basic stuff that almost (putting in an almost there to not generalize) every religion has, so your statement isn't really right. However that may be how you see it, and that's okay, but don't state it as a fact.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Tongues are wagging that SoftBank's billionaire founder, Masayoshi Son, may be the buyer of a $117.5-million estate in Woodside.
No one is willing to go on the record -- everyone involved signed non-disclosure agreements. But one real estate source who requested anonymity because he didn't want to jeopardize future business relations said Son bought the exclusive property in the woodsy and very wealthy heart of Silicon Valley.
Son is one of the richest men in Japan. He owns nearly 30% of Softbank and serves as its chief executive.
Softbank has significant business dealings in the United States. It holds large stakes in Yahoo Japan and China's Alibaba Group. In October, Softbank announced a $20-billion deal to buy a majority stake in Sprint Nextel, the wireless carrier that trails AT&T and Verizon.

Yale University Art Gallery
The Yale University Art Gallery has partnered with Artstor to share nearly 2,000 images from its permanent collection through the Digital Library. The collection consists of a selection of approximately 1,000 highlights from the permanent collection, with an additional 250 images focusing on African art. Artstor is also sponsoring a pilot project to produce three-dimensional imagery for African objects housed at the Gallery and the Peabody Museum of Natural History at Yale University. Through an ongoing collaboration, both museums seek to provide greater access to their unique permanent collections and develop an integrated digital collection in Artstor that brings together materials currently housed at separate Yale institutions. As part of this partnership, the Gallery will also contribute approximately 18,000 images related to the archaeological expeditions at Dura-Europos and Gerasa, which were sponsored by Yale University. Additionally, approximately 600 images from the Yale University Art Gallery's collection are now available as high-resolution downloads; for more information see Images for Academic Publishing.
The Yale University Art Gallery opened to the public in 1832. At the time, its collections consisted of a small initial donation of paintings and miniature portraits made by John Trumbull, a history painter and portraitist. Since then, the Art Gallery's permanent collection has grown to include over 185,000 works, divided among ten curatorial departments: African Art, American Decorative Arts, American Paintings and Sculpture, Ancient Art, Art of the Ancient Americas, Asian Art, Coins and Medals, Early European Art, Modern and Contemporary Art, and Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. Previously dispersed in various locations throughout the university, Yale's art collections were first united in 1928, with the construction of the Gallery of Fine Art designed by architect Egerton Swartwout. The museum reopened in 1953 as the Yale University Art Gallery and Design Center, in a new building designed by architect Louis I. Kahn. Widely regarded as Kahn's first masterpiece, the Art Gallery was also Kahn's first major public commission. Kahn's modernist structure, constructed from brick, concrete, glass, and steel, stands in contrast to the neo-Gothic style that characterizes the rest of Yale's campus, including the nearby Swartwout building. A recent restoration and renovation campaign has restored the purity and integrity of Kahn's original design, which employed bold engineering innovations and geometric forms to create expansive spaces that play with light and shadow. The second floor of the renovated Art Gallery features a new permanent gallery devoted to the arts of Africa. Its centerpiece is the Charles B. Benenson collection, which is noted for its selection of ritual figures and masks from West and Central Africa. The 500+ objects in the Benenson collection, acquired in 2004 as one of the largest single gifts of art to the university, transformed the Art Gallery into one of the most important repositories of African art in the United States.

The Surf Simply team are all qualified BSA and ISA Surf Coaches as well as being RLSS and ILS International Beach Lifeguards, but more importantly they're surf geeks. They love to get stuck into the "hows" and "whys" of surfing and then to articulate it in an interesting and engaging way.
Each chalet has 2 bedrooms and one bathroom. All the rooms have WiFi and air conditioning. The chalets also have a kitchen (although you will not need to use it) and a private terrace. You can choose to either share a chalet, share a room or have a private chalet all to yourself. The beach is a 5 minute walk through the trees but for your surf lessons we will drive you down in our golf buggy. You will have use of the 'beach cruiser' bicycles the rest of the time if you fancy exploring. The pool-side lounge also has WiFi and a huge comfortable sofa.
Careful thought has been given to every aspect of the resort from the art on the wall of your bedroom to the integrated lighting which lights up the palms from underneath when you swim in the pool at night. The poolside dinning room and lounge double as the perfect classroom for teaching surf theory and doing video feedback sessions. The best thing about the resort though is the quiet. The rustle of the trees (or the animals in them) and the waves are the only sounds you'll hear as you lay by the pool or on your own private terrace.

Gang Violence and Gun Control
Interesting article on Gangs and Gun control.
The problem is the U.S government has these statistics...
Our commander and chief (notice lower case letters) and his cohorts in the senate really don't get it!
Good read, there's alot of truth behind the article. The most obvious one, criminals do not obey laws, even in the thousands. And law abiding citizens are just scapegoats for an ever constant threat/problem.
You want to make a difference in getting your voice heard about protecting your right to have a firearm in CA?

Excellent article. I have actually conducted extensive research on this subject for my master's thesis and potentially a book down the road. Consider this...since the year 2000, there have been 3,181 deaths of Americans or foreigners on American soil as a result of terrorism, domestic terrorism, and mass shootings combined. The bulk of that obviously comes from the September 11, 2001 attacks. In realilty, aside from those attacks, there hasn't been any major number of those killed. Wounded is another story. *Note* this number does not include those killed in support of OIF/OEF/OND.
Between 2006 and 2011, there were 87,325 homicides according to the FBI in the U.S (excluding the 9/11 attacks). As pointed out in the article, the NGIC estimates that roughly 48% of all violent crime is a result of gang activity, which using that number would more than 40,000 gang related deaths in America. 10 times the number of those killed in terrorist attacks in half the time. More than twice the number of those killed as a result of terrorist attacks AND soldiers killed in OIF/OEF/OND over the last 13 years in half the time.
Sadly, most mayors and law enforcement leaders are in complete denial. These studies often actually underscore the gang problem as many government and LE leaders are either in complete denial or don't understand what gang activity actually consists of. Even giving a ridiculously low percentage of 10% would still give us more than twice the number of terror related deaths in half the time.
Working gangs for the past 7 years, I have yet to come across a gangster in possession of a legally possessed firearm. Most of these guys are prohibited from purchasing a firearm before they are old enough to legally buy one as they generally enter the criminal system as young as 10 or 11 years old. They are violent felons long before they are adults. The closest they come to legit sales is through their girlfriends who, in today's gang world, are often sought out without a criminal record to help purchase firearms or stash illegal items. Still, they end up in illegal possession of the firearm as soon as they come in the vicinity of it. This was an excellent article, but sadly, politicians don't care about facts or protecting the people or government. They care about furthering their own agendas. Such is the fall of the Republic, as it did 1600 years ago. Just my $.02.
They are not gangs they are clubs!!! I think the government is as scared of the gangs are they are scared of the Muslims. The muslims,,, if some one makes them unhappy they kill them. Gang members the same thing.
California's politicians and unionized government employees are a crime gang that makes the Mexican drug cartels look like a Girl Scout Troop in comparison.

good read, thanks OP. Big picture is that the govt does not want us to be armed. That's the bottom line. Criminals don't care about the law. Only law abiding citizens do. And there in lies our problem....
<6 years till retirement, can't wait to leave this state
California, where all of the good stuff is banned, registered, regulated or prohibited, yay.....
The article was OK. He got it right about the money portion, the money from drug sales is what expanded gangs population and power the most.
BUT... for starters all those statistics are from 10+ years ago. I don't have any scientific stats but can tell you almost certainly that gang activity/participation/intensity is down down down since the 90's and early 2000's. Is it still a major problem, sure but don't use old statistics showing some of the worst times in our country as your evidence.
Another thing, they say "Gangs are a huge problem Congress ignores" and mayors, police etc. The reality is that fixing these problems as they relate to homicide is not as easy or black and white as many would like to believe. It's mostly a societal problem but the solutions provided are almost always incarceration, penalties, prohibitions and general outcasting etc. AND the flip side of using those homicide statistics to our favor is most people don't give a crap about the deceased or the murderer to the extent that they're killing their own. Outrage only occurs in general when it's a "non-player" who's killed.
If the whole argument was "criminals don't follow the law in the first place" and these proposals are incorrectly directed at "us law abiding non gang members", then yeah I'll agree with that.
Oh and completly wrong forum for this thread!?!?!?!

text: I was debating John in another thread and he brought up a point which I feel needs more elaboration. I am including a link which I think everyone should read before commenting on this thread: Arab girl's experience in US prison after 9/11 This is not uncommon, by the way. Muslims in America are the victims of prevalent hate crimes, discrimination by law enforcement, rape, murder, and imprisonment for political views. Many Americans act like Muslims feel safe and secure in American society. This is far from truth. If you know any stories or articles, please share with the rest of us.

It appears a man who once escaped from Leavenworth County Jail will enter into a plea deal in an unrelated drug case.
It appears a man who once escaped from Leavenworth County Jail will enter into a plea deal in an unrelated drug case.
Raheem K. Armstead, 31, was convicted in 2012 in Leavenworth County District Court of possession of methamphetamine, obstruction of an official duty and driving without a valid license.
But, those convictions were overturned earlier this year by the Kansas Court of Appeals, and the case was remanded to District Court for a new trial.
Armstead's convictions in the 2012 drug case stemmed from a Dec. 27, 2011, incident in which Armstead allegedly abandoned a car and ran from Leavenworth police.
Inside the vehicle, police reportedly found methamphetamine, according to court documents.
Armstead was sentenced to nearly three years in prison after he was convicted in the case.
He appeared Wednesday in District Court. His attorney, Michael Willcott, said a plea agreement had been reached in the drug case, but there was a problem with a written agreement that had been prepared.
"There's some language that needs to be added to it," Willcott said.
He said Assistant County Attorney Adam Zentner, who has been prosecuting the case, is not in the office this week. But, he will return next week.
The plea hearing was rescheduled for Aug. 6.
Conditions of the plea agreement were not discussed in court.
Armstead is serving prison sentences with the Kansas Department of Corrections for other cases, including an escape charge.
He was transferred to the custody of the Leavenworth County Jail for recent court appearances. Officials from the jail said they will try to arrange to keep him in their custody until after next week's scheduled court appearance.
The 2012 convictions in the drug case came several months before Armstead escaped from custody at Leavenworth County Jail.
On Dec. 29, 2012, Armstead ran from the jail grounds as he and other trusties were escorted outside to dispose of trash. He was apprehended a few days later at a residence in Leavenworth. He later pleaded guilty to aggravated escape from custody and was sentenced to 19 months in prison for that charge.
A fence has since been erected around the area where Armstead made his escape.
Judges from the Kansas Court of Appeals reversed the convictions in the 2012 drug case because they found the district court judge made a mistake in allowing the prosecution to introduce evidence of prior convictions.
"We conclude the District Court erred in admitting evidence of Armstead's prior convictions to impeach his credibility and, as a result, we reverse the convictions and remand the case for a new trial," Appeals Court Judge Michael Buser wrote in the March 21 decision.
Armstead testified during the 2012 trial, and the prosecutor asked the judge to allow evidence of prior convictions for crimes that showed an element of deceit.
The judge allowed evidence of two prior convictions, according to the Court of Appeals decision.
Kansas law allows the prosecution to present evidence of prior convictions if a defendant already has introduced evidence to support his credibility as a witness. But, the appellate judges found that a defendant doesn't place his credibility at issue "by merely taking the witness stand," Buser wrote.

12.8 percent
What does it take to transform from a department head to a respected, company-wide leader? Apparently, much more than CIOs are currently delivering, according to a new survey from Chally Group. The performance-measurement firm recently surveyed top executives worldwide for its Global Leadership Research report, to come up with a better sense of what organizations need from leaders these days-as well as which departments typically serve as the farm-team for C-level executives. The bad news for IT? The most elite of the C-suite talent doesn't generally come from the tech side. And, while CIOs are depended upon for overseeing the IT enterprise and serving critical business functions, when it comes to classic leadership roles-such as inspiring others and implementing a strategic vision-these are not considered core essentials for CIOs. On the positive side, the report also sheds insight on valued qualities of senior leadership to which any executive can aspire, as well as leadership-killing characteristics to avoid. Some 1,400 top-level executives worldwide responded to the survey.
Just 12.8 percent of C-level executives come from the IT department.

Defense Technica Review
Defense Technica is a tower defence game which harks backs to early entries in the genre. While many modern TD games send enemies stomping towards you along pre-determined paths, Defense Technica makes you use your own towers to steer and funnel your enemies where you want them. This old-skool formula is married with a card system that acts as a replacement for tower upgrades. Though these cards - which are bought via IAPs - are supposed to be an optional feature, the game does a very…Watch The Video Review
Inotia 4 Review
As it is, and so shall it always be, given the fullness of time, yet another sequel to a somewhat popular KRPG series makes its way on to the App Store. Inotia 4: Assassin of Berkel by Com2us is the next on the chopping block, and it seemingly fails to learn from the past, instead seeking to exploit its free-to-play status. You are once again in the control of a teenager keen to prove himself (in this case as the 'virtuoso' of the Shadow Tribe) and you're thrown in to a 'whirlwind' st…Watch The Video Review
Piggy Adventure Review
We've seen quite a few games use the concept of some evil force draining the world of color and the player having to help the main characters restore vibrancy. Piggy's adventure would be the first time that this concept was completely divorced from the gameplay. As three barnyard animal painters, you need to color the black and white world of Avelon, but upon playing the game, one will notice immediately that someone has already beat them to the job. Using either tilt controls or on s…Watch The Video Review
Tower Defense® Review
It's hard not to be impressed by the courage displayed by Com2US with regards to their latest video game release. After sitting on the trademark of 'Tower Defense' for almost three years, the company has finally released what they claim to be 'THE TOWER DEFENSE'. This sets the mark pretty high for 'Tower Defense®: Lost Earth' considering the amount of great TDs already on offer and the only burning question that needs to be answered is, 'Does it live up to these expectations?'. In…Watch The Video Review
Third Blade Review
Com2US have made a mark on the App Store thanks to their relatively solid releases and in particular their deft hand at producing decent action KRPG titles. Caligo Chaser was an interesting take on the side-scrolling beat'em-up and Queen's Crown returned to the top-down roots while introducing a new weapon-swapping mechanic, however their latest release, Third Blade, adds a third kind of heat by mixing side-scrolling with the weapon-swap system for a far more immediate action experienc…Watch The Video Review
Zombie Runaway Review
It was sort of inevitable and I'm certain it's not the first, but zombies and endless runners have collided in Zombie Runaway by Com2uS. Regrettably there's not a lot on offer and while the prospect of earning bonus items is enticing it still feels like another runner to throw on the pile. Instead of the traditional side-scrolling platformer, players are placed in a vertical orientation while running up the screen to an infinite horizon, dodging gravestones by tapping left and right o…Watch The Video Review
Inotia 3: Children of Carnia Review
The Inotia series of RPGs by Com2uS has never really been one to stand out from the crowd of Action-RPGs that have come to dominate the App Store scene, innovating in small ways, but remaining relatively generic in its approach. Inotia 3: Children of Carnia continues in the same vein as its predecessors and while it has improved compared to the last two releases, it fails to do anything truly exciting. Where the previous title used a questionable touch-based system, Inotia 3 has retur…Watch The Video Review
Caligo Chaser Review
Caligo Chaser by Com2us is fairly standard action RPG fare. There are people in town who give you quests, areas to destory monsters by chaining attacks, and a customization system for skills and weapons. This is not old and boring however because this game has draped everything in visual flare and streamlined mechanics. After acing your exams, you become a private knight to pay off your school debt and work to keep the city of Emporion safe. Control is handled via a virtual d-pad with…Watch The Video Review
HEAVY GUNNER 3D Review
Earth is under attack! It's up to your defensive skills behind the mounted gun to stop the alien invasion from taking over. Heavy Gunner 3d is a defense shooter where you must mow down waves upon waves of incoming enemies with a vast selection of upgradable weapons. The controls are a little complex, but they work well. Tilting your iphone moves the camera around your 360 degree viewport. Using two fingers (one from each hand) you control the two guns. Initially it is confusing lookin…Watch The Video Review

Save These Books
Classic cookbooks from America's food icons
By Kate Ramos
Although these vintage cookbooks were deemed dated by their publishing companies long ago, collectors and cooks still ask for them, says bookshop owner Bonnie Slotnick. Cooking trends come and go, but reliable recipes and comprehensive how-tos are evergreen. Here are Slotnick's 10 most requested kitchen classics (we've linked to current editions, in some cases; for the vintage versions, contact Slotnick or someone who specializes in out-of-print books).
1. Betty Crocker's Picture Cook Book
(McGraw-Hill, 1950)
This was the model for the heavily illustrated cookbooks of today. Step-by-step photographs and illustrations of skills, like how to brew a good cup of coffee or frost a cake, make this book the gold standard for the self-taught cook.
2. Betty Crocker's Cooky Book
(Wiley, 1963)
The 1963 edition of this cookie-baking authority has more than 450 recipes, with an entire section devoted to holiday treats. Favorites include the ginger almond cookies, the Norwegian kringla, and the lemon bars.
3. Craig Claiborne's New York Times Cook Book
(Harper & Row, 1961)
Full of worldly recipes for dishes like feijoada and cassoulet, Claiborne's book also has helpful reference guides, including a timetable for roasting meats and a conversion chart for foreign equivalents.
4. Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book
(Meredith Press, 1965)
A beginner cook's wonderland, thanks to detailed guides to canning, baking bread, and rolling pie dough.
5. Maida Heatter's Book of Great Cookies
(Alfred A. Knopf, 1977)
Heatter was one of the first food writers to take a more professional approach to baking, providing clear, concise recipes. This book is full of cookie recipes like homemade fig bars (she calls them "Big Newtons") and rugalach.
6. Good Housekeeping Cookbook
(Hearst, 1949)
This is a great gift for both new and experienced cooks. The dessert chapter is especially tempting, with treasures such as crumbly topped rhubarb and custard bread pudding.
7. Woman's Home Companion Cook Book
(P. F. Collier and Son, 1951)
Known as a "mother book," an all-inclusive homemaking guide from the first half of the 20th century, this cookbook by Dorothy Kirk may be sought after more for nostalgia reasons than for its detailed instructions on how to train servants or raise children.
8. Antoinette Pope School Cookbook
(Macmillan, 1948)
A book from a series of courses in Chicago on "fancy cookery." Full of postwar charm, and particularly loved by Chicagoans who remember the baked Alaska.
9. Time-Life Foods of the World Series
(Time-Life, 1968)
This collection is broken into countries of origin, each edition featuring one book of background information, photos, and a few recipes, and a spiral-bound recipe book. The American installment includes icons from M. F. K. Fisher to James Beard.
10. The Settlement Cook Book
(Applewood, 1903)
An early American classic. Cooks still reach for their copies for basic tips on table settings and a recipe for good Kuchen (though you'll have to determine for yourself how much "one cent's worth of yeast" is).
Kate Ramos is the assistant food editor at CHOW.

October 6, 2008
On a beautiful Sunday afternoon during her favorite season in the Chapel of the College she loved, friends, admirers, and members of the Wabash community came from coast to coast to remember and pay tribute to Virginia "Ginny" Hays 'H98.
"She was a fascinating woman who by example showed generations of Wabash men how to make the most of everything life sends your way," said former Wabash President Andy Ford. Recalling all that Ginny and her late husband, Crawfordsville Mayor Will Hays '37, had done for Wabash and the town, Ford noted that Mrs. Hays had lived in Washington D.C. and Beverly Hills before the couple built their home near the heart of the Wabash campus.
"She counted among her friends in California Harpo and Susan Marx, Debbie Reynolds, Dinah Shore (who lived across the street), and Jimmy Stewart. Yet she moved so easily, it seemed, from the fast track of Beverly Hills and Washington DC to Crawfordsville," Ford said. "Ginny exerted this kind of energy in every community in which she lived. She was a real community builder."
Yet "you could never get Ginny to talk about herself," Ford added. "I don't know if I've known anybody who was better at deflecting a conversation from herself as Ginny. And she seemed happy either alone or with others. It speaks to an inner peace that was truly remarkable."
Wabash Trustee and Mrs. Hays' son in law John Fox '64 said, "Ginny was a force—my pal, and to many in Crawfordsville, its leading lady. To Wabash students she was the elegant yet always genuinely friendly Mrs. Hays—a loyal fan present at all home football and basketball games. To her children she was mother, or mom, a source of strength and of goodness. And to her grandchildren, a blend of grit and grace and a grandmother unlike anyone else's."
Fox shared some of the stories others had told him as he was preparing his tribute to Mrs. Hays. Granddaughter Amanda Cain Fox said she had never met anyone "so elegant, yet so genuinely kind. I was so proud to be her granddaughter." She and sister Megan Morseth remembered their grandmother's mischievous side, particularly the time she jumped off her horse while crossing a branch of the Shoshone River at the Lazy J Ranch near Cody, Wyoming, filling up her hat to throw water on her granddaughters. They also recalled the day their grandmother challenged them to a race from the river to the cabin, how they were gaining on her until she gracefully jumped a split rail fence without breaking stride.
Granddaughter Caitlyn Fox called her one of the most refreshingly genuine and funny people she knew ."Nana seemed to be laughing at an inner monologue even before she spoke," she remembered.
Fox said that Ginny's daughter Kathy and son Bill admired their mother's "love of the land. She was most happy at the farm, or astride a horse. In all the places they lived, she never lost touch with her roots. A farm girl from Illinois who loved and revered the earth—the land gave her true peace."
Mrs. Hays' youngest daughter, Amy, recalled a quote—"Fearlessly be yourself"—that her mother placed on the refrigerator door right before Amy started middle school.
"I did not realize then how often I would reflect upon those words. Mom lived her life that way—'fearlessly be yourself.' She taught me compassion, tolerance, and grace. My father was my peaceful warrior. My mother was, and will forever be, my hero."
Wabash College Trustee Allan Anderson '65 said, "Ginny Hays loved Wabash College, and the entire college loved her back. She was one of us, and she made us all look good. Style and class in every way and all the time."
Officiating over the ceremony was Mrs. Hays' former pastor, Rev. Larry Wickett, who said that "if Ginny could speak to us from Heaven, she would 'say 'I just want you to know how happy I am to be here.' Today we celebrate Ginny's homecoming."
President Ford recalled a birthday party Ginny and Bill attended at Elston Homestead in the 1990s. When the piano began to play, Ford said, the couple moved the furniture to the walls of the room and "began dancing away in the middle of the floor. In my minds eye I can still see them dancing around the floor, and I'll bet that's what they are doing right now."

Daddy like, Daddy like indeed. Now I just need to find a few spare red ones, and I'll make one. Very good job. You paid good attention to detail on the black, I see. I'm thinking the cape would look even better if you starched it. Kevin
Looking good DD! Glad to see you made it here and this section is getting some more action! That Wookiee looks great! and so do all the Ithorinas, the blue one is a bit different.... I think it would look a little better if you dulled it and toned it down a bit. I like the idea but he seems to bright. You have any shots of the Black wook?
You sure are brave with customizing those wookies. I hope I find some on clearance. I only have 4. Maybe tommorow I'll take a risk and work on one. I'm worried about messing up the face. Any advice?Very neat Max Veers custom too. I love Imperial Officers.Kevin

Raw milk is one of those food debates that continues to rage on as consumers fight for their right to consume what they want, and the government tries to protect them from making themselves sick and dying. A recent outbreak of illness caused by raw milk in Pennsylvania is sure to add fuel to this fire.
At least 78 people have fallen ill, including at least one toddler. All have been linked to unpasteurized milk from The Family Cow dairy. At least nine have been hospitalized.
While I understand the desire to eat and drink as naturally as possible, sometimes nature makes us sick. As Sarah Klein, an attorney for the Center for Science in the Public Interest, told USA Today:
These are still animals, they defecate inches from where the milk is produced. They stand in it, they swat their tails through it. That's all very natural. It's just a matter of course that raw milk is contaminated.
Louis Pasteur was a smart guy and invented pasteurization for this reason. According to a report in USA Today, unpasteurized milk is "150 times more likely to cause food-borne illness outbreaks than pasteurized milk, and such outbreaks had a hospitalization rate 13 times higher than those involving pasteurized dairy products." Seventeen states have actually outlawed the sale of the milk because it's so dangerous.
So why would anyone take such a risk? Proponents believe in its power and say that pasteurization kills the good properties in milk. They believe it's better quality as it usually comes from small farms, with animals who are well cared for.
All of that definitely has merit, but I still personally wouldn't drink it, and would rather be safe than sick. If other people want to take the risk, then I think that should be their choice, but I think it's an irresponsible choice to give raw milk to children who can suffer potentially fatal effects if infected. There's just too much evidence documenting its dangers that I can't imagine anyone taking that kind of chance with their children's health.
I believe outlawing the sale of raw milk goes too far, but I do think this outbreak is a good reason to make everyone rethink what they and their families drink. Of course, there are risks with any food, and we see outbreaks daily, so whether it's raw milk, ground beef, sprouts, or eggs, we're really all only bites and sips away from illness any given moment no matter what we do.
Do you drink raw milk? Do you think it's irresponsible for parents to give it to children?

I followed the plans for the "Mini Halfpipe"
Thanks for making such a great site man!
Anyway, I covered the mini with masonite and use a tarp to cover it.
I made the mistake to let the tarp lay right over the ramp the first time it rained on it.
The water pooled and ruined a piece or masonite.
Right now I have a piece of rope tied between two trees on opposite sides of the ramp to keep the water from pooling on the top.
Anyone have any better solutions? I'm sure plenty of people here tarp their ramps.
How do you guys do it?
I've attached some pics I took during construction, I'll upload newer ones soon ...

The Revolution controlled the tempo and outshot Real Salt Lake by a margin of 20-6, but a pair of set-piece goals sent the Revs to another frustrating loss
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – In recent weeks, the New England Revolution has made an unfortunate habit of seeing quality performances go unrewarded in the standings.
Last week, the Revs squandered back-to-back two-goal leads in a pair of maddening 2-2 draws with FC Dallas and the Columbus Crew. On Saturday night at Gillette Stadium, the Revs were strong in possession and outshot Real Salt Lake by a margin of 20-6, only for loose marking on a pair of set pieces to result in an exasperating 2-1 loss.
For the third straight game, the Revs walked off the field feeling they deserved more for their efforts.
"I think [this] game typifies the season," said head coach Steve Nicol. "As far as the goals we lost, they're terrible goals. Salt Lake's a good team, but I thought we were better than them tonight. Just in that final third, we didn't quite produce that extra bit of whatever to take advantage of the chances we had.
"We're just shooting ourselves in the foot," he continued. "But I guess the positive side is that we passed the ball really well at times tonight. But we're disappointed. There's no way we should've lost that game tonight."
On the balance of play, the Revs were well on top for most of the night and were rewarded for their efforts when Sainey Nyassi scored his third goal of the season in the 82nd minute. Nyassi had earlier clipped the crossbar with a long-range drive in the first half, and the speedy Gambian was a threat down the right side all night.
But Nyassi's goal only managed to pull the Revs level after they'd conceded the opener from a Javier Morales free kick in the 68th minute, when Nat Borchers worked free of Emmanuel Osei at the back post and flicked a header into the roof of the net. Then another lapse in the 84th minute allowed RSL to restore its lead almost immediately after Nyassi's equalizer, as Saborio fought through Pat Phelan and powered home a header from close range.
"They're both basic error goals," said Nicol. "You go down to the park on a Sunday morning and you shouldn't see two goals like that on a professional football field. That's where we let ourselves down.
"The rest of the game – no complaints from me at all," Nicol continued. "I thought we were committed, I thought we passed the ball well at times. We didn't have that final pass to take advantage of all that good play. But the goals are basic errors that kind of stung us most of the season."
Borchers' goal was the fourth the Revolution has conceded from an indirect free kick this season, while Saborio's goal was the third allowed directly from a corner kick. While the Revs have been strong on set pieces in the attacking third of the field – scoring five times on free kicks and once from a corner kick – they've also seen their defense on dead-ball situations cost them points.
"We gave away two set piece goals (tonight)," said captain Shalrie Joseph. "That's stuff you don't do if you want to be one of the better teams in the league. You don't give away goals on set pieces like that."
In the postgame aftermath, the Revolution grasped for positives from yet another improved performance which didn't yield the desired result. But while the Revs can use those improvements as building blocks heading into next season, the fact that points have eluded them on these occasions throughout the year is part of the reason they find themselves out of playoff contention.
"In the end, if you look at the last three games, we've got two points out of them," said goalkeeper Matt Reis. "We are playing a bit better, but at the end of the season, they have no bearing on the postseason.
"It's great we're finally playing – we're not just kicking the ball," he continued. "We're trying to pass and we've done a pretty good job the past couple of games. But we need results."

User:Kevin Reid/User far proxy
From Erights
The basic idea here is that there ought to be a way for a user to interactively provide the behavior of a far ref: for general interactive use where a callback is wanted, for debugging eventual protocols, and for demonstrating how E works.
This ties directly into the interactive object manipulation ideas that are part of [[./E-AUI]] but I haven't implemented it in that framework yet.
This is a draft REPL-based implementation which I wrote July 26, 2008. I haven't checked whether it works. —Kevin Reid 09:03, 6 May 2010 (CDT)
The UI design is that notifications are printed to stdout with an index n, and the arguments and return-value resolver are obtained by
args[n], and
var lastID := 0 def verbs := [].asMap().diverge() def args := [].asMap().diverge() def reply := [].asMap().diverge() def make(label :String) { return makeProxy(def handler { to handleSendOnly(verb, args) { def thisID := lastID += 1 stdout.println(`$label received $verb$args [$thisID]`) verbs[thisID] := verb args[thisID] := args } to handleSend(verb, args) { handler.handleSendOnly(verb, args) stdout.println(`Expecting a reply`) def thisID := lastID # XXX kludge reply[thisID] := def response response } }) }

The Chief himself, Aaron Douglas from Battlestar Galactica, took time at NYCC to talk about his new project Emissary and fill us in on his opinions about Gaeta's latest dickiness, along with final-Cylon impressions. Spoilers!
Aaron explains everything, but we dare you to stop staring at his t-shirt for long enough to start listening.
Aaron On The Emissary: "I think it's fascinating. I think it's great. It's so close to real that it's almost plausible... it's so fun to go to a movie or see a TV show and there's just that hint of supernatural aspect to it, but there's so much reality."
Aaron on Tyrol's journey: "The thing I didn't like about making him a Cylon is that you're marginalizing him. You take a character that the fans really like, [who's] such a likeable guy. [But on the other hand, once you know the Chief is a Cylon], suddenly everything makes sense. And he just suddenly has that moment of, "Oh, I get it." Some people really don't like it, but it's a weird thing. I don't think the Cylons are completely evil, or the humans are completely good."
On accepting Ellen as the final Cylon: "I really didn't like the fact that Ellen was the fifth one, when I read it. I thought, "Oh, come on."... But when the mythology unfolded and Ron told us the whole story and explained why — what you guys will see at the end, the explanation of who the final five are and what they mean — I really liked that. I think it's really great. Ellen and Tigh are like mom and dad to the rest of us."
Why not Cally? "I think that's just too obvious. I think the only couple that would work is Tigh and Ellen."
On Hot Dog being the daddy: "Cally was putting her cabbage breath on his hotdog... I liked that. I thought it was great. I thought it was hilarious."
On Gaeta becoming our new love-to-hate character: "It came out of nowhwere. I mean the most mild-mannered nice guy, and then he just snaps. I think it's great. "
BSG's ending: "The ending's perfect. You'll cry your eyes out."

If you have followed TPR for any length of time, you'll know that we *LOVE* the after-hours themed events at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom! The big two every year are Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. Both of which are considered the best of any holiday events at parks here in Orlando, and we would have to agree! If you love Disney and love the holidays, these events should be a MUST DO for your trip to Walt Disney World!
We have already been to the Christmas Party twice this season, and here's a compilation of photos & videos from both nights! This event runs select nights in November and December and we highly recommend it!
Yay! I love when the Christmas decorations are out above the Magic Kingdom toll plaza!
We just got into the park and we already have cookies!

Elsa works her magic starting off with a blank canvas...
And within moments it looks like this!
Thank you Elsa for the awesome job of lighting up the castle!
Everyone is decked out for the holidays!
When you see the giant candy cane that's where you get awesome Christmas treats!
Wait, are you giving me soft pretzels?
Christmas treats are included in the price of the event and each location has different treats! These were some of the best!
Hot soft pretzels and Sno-Cones are the amazing holiday combo you never knew you needed till now!
It wouldn't be a Christmas Party without a Christmas tree!
Hey look! It's Big Al and Big Alvey! I love it when they bring the characters out in their Christmas costumes!
The cast members are always so happy to give me food!
Yes, please! I will take some!
The cookies and drinks are delicious!
This is a GREAT spot to watch the parade at both the Halloween & Christmas events. When main street is packed like crazy with people, you can usually find a spot fairly easily over across from Country Bear Jamboree.
Here's the re-cap from our live stream of the parade!
Another ProTip is to watch the fireworks from this location - We are standing in the hub on the left side of the "Partners" statue but do not go any further forward than the Partners statue! You'll have a great view from right here!
Mickey's Once Upon a Christmastime Parade has all of your favorite characters...plus Santa!
Of course, watching the parade from Main Street is awesome, too, but you have to get there VERY early!
The Christmas and Halloween parties are one of the few times during the year where you can see fireworks "in the round" meaning there are fireworks all around you and this experience is amazing!

This fireworks show is soooo good!
Red and green = CHRISTMAS!!!
Nobody does theme park fireworks shows better than Disney!
I love that Walt Disney World has been getting more and more of these awesome popcorn buckets like you see in Japan!
Here is the new Christmas Party MagicBand!
It's cute with lots of holiday characters...
And of course I had to buy one!
Yes... it is legit snowing in Orlando!
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party!
Come for the awesome holiday atmosphere...
...stay for the delicious treats!
Yes we went back for more snow cones!
Mickey's Most Merriest Celebration is a "don't miss" castle show that plays several times during the event.
Here's a couple of clips from the show. I love this!
This show has so many characters in it! It's impressive to watch and it might even be my favorite castle show so far!
The castle looks the BEST during the Christmas holiday season!
And yes "Jingle Cruise" remains a holiday tradition here at Magic Kingdom!
Trader Sam has his Christmas lights!
Get it? #JungleCruiseHumor
PhotoPass have been doing these awesome pictures during the events the last couple of years. I think this one with Zero is new this year!
Another Very Merry tip: The treat location at Pinocchio Village Haus gives you ALL the cookie flavors!
They did bring back the Haunted Mansion lantern pic from Not-So-Scary and we think that is awesome!
And let's not forget another very important feature of these special ticket events... LOW WAITS for rides!
We rode Space Mountain...
...and then we rode again...
...and again! I think we got in 5 rides with never more than a 5 minute wait!
And if you play Sorcerer's of the Magic Kingdom, each event will give you an exclusive new card! Here's this year's version!
It was another AWESOME Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party! Do not miss this event if you are in Orlando for the holiday season!
Oh! And don't forget! If you want some additional holiday cheer at Walt Disney World this year, Hollywood Studios has this new "Tower of Terror" projection show for the holidays!
Now please POST YOUR COMMETS! After all, we took the time to write the report, thru very least you can do is say something about it!

A man who has worked with some of the nation's top civil rights leaders will speak at Wabash College tonight.
Dr. Calvin Sylvester Morris will deliver a speech, "Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: An Example of Service and Volunteerism for the 21st Century" at 8 p.m., Monday, in Baxter Hall, Room 101. His visit is sponsored by Wabash College's Malcolm X Institute in honor of Dr. King's birthday and the national Dr. Martin Luther King holiday.
Morris has served since 1998 as the executive director of the Community Renewal Society in Chicago. But his ties to the civil rights movement come from his involvement with key leadership organizations in the late 60s and early 1970s.
At the request of Reverend Jesse Jackson, Morris became the associate director and national coordinator of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference's Operation Breadbasket, now the Rainbow-PUSH Coalition. He served in that capacity from 1967 to 1971, through the assassination of Dr. King.
Then after two years as coordinator of African American Studies at Simmons College in Boston, he returned to Atlanta as executive director of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Non-violent Social Change until 1976. We worked closely with King's widow, Coretta Scott King, during his time with The King Center.
He moved on to establish a 16-year relationship with Howard University's School of Divinity. He earned his Ph.D. in American history from Boston University in 1982.
Morris is a Philadelphia native and graduate of Lincoln University in Oxford, Penn., graduating cum laude with a history degree. He earned an M.A. in history and S.B.T. in theology from Boston University in 1967. He is also an ordained United Methodist minister.
His work at the Community Renewal Society includes supervising two publications, a staff of 47 people and a $4.5 million budget. He is a board member of the Golden Apple Foundation, Chicago Chamber Musicians, Chicago Theater Company, Sojourner and the Wieboldt Foundation.
He is a co-convener of the Justice Coalition of Greater Chicago and is a co-chairman of Jobs for Justice Clergy Committee. He was elected treasurer of the Board of Trustee of Lincoln University, his alma mater.
His biography reads "his professional experience has placed him in key leadership roles in faith-based, community-based and educationally centered institutions. His background holds an interesting blend of scholarly and management experiences in religious and educational institutions and executive management experience in organizations committed to racial, social, and economic justice.
Dr. Morris will be guest of the MXI for a dinner and reception prior to his evening remarks.

Generic Microgest™®: Progesterone
Progesterone is the chemical name of the active ingredient in Microgest™®
Tablet Chemical Name: Progesterone.
Other name brands for this medication
Possible Uses of Microgest: Progesterone is a type of female hormone (progestin). This medication is similar to the progesterone that your body naturally makes and is given to replace the hormone when your body is not making enough of it. In women who are not pregnant and not going through menopause, this medication is used to restore normal menstrual periods that have stopped for several months (amenorrhea).
Progesterone is also used as part of combination hormone replacement therapy with estrogens to reduce menopause symptoms (e.g., hot flashes). Progesterone is added to estrogen replacement therapy to reduce the risk of cancer of the uterus. This medication is not for use in children. Progesterone must not be used to test for pregnancy.
OTHER USES: This section contains uses of this drug that are not listed in the approved professional labeling for the drug but that may be prescribed by your health care professional. Use this drug for a condition that is listed in this section only if it has been so prescribed by your health care professional. This drug may also be used to maintain pregnancy.
Before using Microgest: Before taking progesterone, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients (such as peanut oil), which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
How to take Microgest: Read the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start using this drug and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication by mouth, usually once a day at bedtime or as directed by your doctor. If you have trouble swallowing the pills, take with a full glass of water while standing up. Follow the dosing schedule carefully. Ask your doctor if you have any questions. The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to therapy. Inform your doctor if your condition does not improve or if it worsens.
Precautions When Using Microgest: This medication should not be used if you have certain medical conditions. Before using this medicine, consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have: history of blood clots, history of bleeding in the brain, liver disease, cancer of the breast or other female organs, vaginal bleeding of unknown cause, a loss of pregnancy with some tissue remaining in the uterus ("missed abortion"), recent stroke or heart attack (within 1 year).
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: family medical history (especially breast lumps and cancer), kidney disease, obesity, heart disease (e.g., past heart attacks, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure), high blood pressure, seizures, migraine headaches, asthma, high blood levels of cholesterol/fats, depression, diabetes, strokes, lupus. This drug may make you dizzy or drowsy. Do not drive, use machinery, or do any activity that requires alertness until you are sure you can perform such activities safely. Limit alcoholic beverages.
Notify your doctor beforehand if you will be having surgery or will be confined to a chair/bed for a long time (e.g., a long plane flight). You may need to stop the medication for a time or take special precautions because of the increased risk for blood clots. Ask your doctor for more details. Do not smoke. Smoking combined with this medication further increases your risk for strokes, blood clots, high blood pressure, and heart attacks.
This medication may cause blotchy, dark areas on your skin (melasma). Sunlight may worsen this effect. Avoid prolonged sun exposure, tanning booths, and sunlamps. Use a sunscreen, and wear protective clothing when outdoors. This medication may be used during pregnancy only as directed by your doctor. There is conflicting information about whether progestins may cause harm to an unborn baby. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. This drug passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
Side Effects of Microgest: Nausea, bloating, breast tenderness, headache, change in vaginal discharge, mood swings, blurred vision, dizziness, or drowsiness may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
Tell your doctor immediately if any of these serious side effects occur: unusual vaginal bleeding (e.g., spotting, breakthrough bleeding), mental/mood changes (e.g., depression, memory loss), swelling of the hands/feet, frequent/burning/painful urination, breast lumps, dark patches on the skin or face (melasma), yellowing eyes/skin, stomach/abdominal pain, persistent nausea/vomiting, dark urine, unusual tiredness.

A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, seek immediate medical attention if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing. This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
Drug Interactions of Microgest: Drug interactions may change how your medications work or increase your risk for serious side effects. This document does not contain all possible drug interactions. Keep a list of all the products you use (including prescription/nonprescription drugs and herbal products) and share it with your doctor and pharmacist.

Lazy Journalists and UFOs

Kevin, sir, I was shocked too but for a brief few minutes it was great to have my non-UFO nut friends running up to me all over facebook, excitedly and to go with the flow and get a twinge of Xmas squared to the point of terror feeling in my skin, until I recognized the memo from a book I am currently reading.
But I liked it, there's truth inside the lies and lies inside the truth. The radar thing may be off, but clearly some aspects are true, even if it's only embellished heresay. The CIA lives for games like these. Yes it was an embarassing journalist stampede just now, but it was likely engineered to be, and is in the end a very cool acclimation tactic that can work on a large swath of populace who need to start entertaining these realities more quickly for the approaching deadliine. Ultimately the UFO question is swelling bigger all the time, and guys like you are responsible! You're like the guy who started the snow ball rolling down the mountain, you probably never meant for it to get that huge so fast in such a wrong direction, but the important thing, it's there! The truth is out the only way we can handle it, couched in a lie like a dog in a bun.

Over here in Europe, this article was circulating on mainstream (newspaper) websites;
Maybe that also explains the spike in interest.

The guy who did most to expose this FBI memo was none other than Bill Moore. He was of course your main rival in the 'Roswell' saga, and published his negative findings at the very time he was at his most vehement in support of the Roswell crash.
Perhaps he hoped that by destroying one crash tale he would focus more attention on the other one. For anyone interested, it appeared in Moore's 1985 MUFON paper "Crashed UFOs, Evidence in the Search for Proof". It was revised in 1987.

Read the memo carefully. Like so many UFO claim documents, the core information comes from an unidentified third party. So no one can follow up, reinterview the person, determine their credibility and further investigate. I am interested in the UFO phenomenon, but from now on I will only pay attention to FIRST HAND reports from people who are clearly identified.

This is just another example of why the study of this phenomenon hardly ever moves forward - it is stuck in continually re-hashing the past. This is similar to the reaction when Dr. Edgar Mitchell was quoted about a year or 18 months back regarding his thoughts on government ufo information. That was also very old news. But the uninformed talking heads of ufology and the paranormal (i.e. George Noory on C2C)take these things and run with them with no effort to do any background. SNAFU.

J. Edgar Hoover's FBI did collect independent reports on UFOs up until the mid-1950's. Then reports took the form of letters to Project Blue Book asking the USAF to investigate.
Early on and up to 1952 the CIA was often added as an addressee via other channels. Probably courier and dedicated teletype links. Then any mention of the CIA disappeared.

Sandy Alderson insists the Mets will compete in 2011, but at the same time acknowledges limited resources and holes in the rotation and bullpen. The plan is for those injured to bounce back healthy and the others to play at the top of their game.
Don't expect Johan Santana before the All-Star break at the earliest. We've known since he joined the organization this would be the case, but it is sinking in after coming home with scraps from the winter meetings. Yes, the Mets needed a back-up catcher and another bullpen arm, but that's not enough to get it done.
Alderson said today he'd like seven or eight arms to compete for starter roles but came up with only Mike Pelfrey, RA Dickey, John Niese, Dillon Gee and Pat Misch. Jenrry Mejia, he said, isn't ready. Alderson didn't say where the other arms would come from. Chris Young is somebody they are looking at, but he's a project and wants more than what the Mets want to give.
Everything has to break right for the Mets to have a competitive season. That much Alderson has told us. He just hasn't said how this is to happen.

Club Blue Mondays
The 1980s are alive and well, at least in Hollywood on Monday Nights. The neo-gothic B52 Club at Boardner's takes you on a time warp back to the days of bustier tops, acid-washed jeans and big bangs. It's a sweaty scene that would make Olivia Newton John proud; the dressed-the-part crowd (most too young to remember the '80s) gets physical to pop/electro gems from upbeat Madonna and MJ to moody Morrissey and The Cure. Like something out of a Brat Pack film, the goths can be found in the covered courtyard wearing all black and writhing to Nine Inch Nails.

You can Eat to Beat Cancer
Welcome to the Eat to Beat Cancer™ Initiative, which has catalyzed a movement to improve health through cancer-fighting foods. Based on the latest medical science, there are practical, healthy, and tasty food choices that can be made by you every day, at every meal, to incorporate cancer-fighting foods into your diet.
Our research is showing that certain foods have properties that can starve the microscopic cancers that develop in our bodies all the time. These properties are based on the breakthrough approach of suppressing blood vessels that feed cancers, a process known as angiogenesis.
Eat to Beat Cancer Explained
Dr. William Li, President of the Angiogenesis Foundation, presents a new way to think about treating cancer and other diseases: anti-angiogenesis, preventing the growth of blood vessels that feed a tumor. The crucial first (and best) step: Eating cancer-fighting foods that cut off the supply lines and beat cancer at its own game.
How important are these vessels? The healthy body maintains its blood vessels in a continuous state of balance. Cancer develops into a disease when abnormal cells overcome this balanced state and new blood vessels grow to feed cancers. Cutting off a tumor's blood supply starves it of oxygen and nutrients.
You can Eat to Beat Cancer
Eat to Beat Cancer™ is systematically studying the potency of foods and beverages containing cancer-starving activity in order to establish a new cancer-preventative diet. We're finding that the activity of foods depend on many factors – including the specific cultivated variety, the way the food is processed and cooked, even what foods are combined together. Using the same research systems and measures of activity used to test drugs, we are determining food types, varieties, combinations, and effect of cooking, processing, and storage on their potency against cancer.

Suddenly, Montague saw a raven in the grass near the intersection of Jackson and Jefferson streets.
"He was on the ground and just didn't look right," she said.
Montague and the girl cornered the bird in a nearby yard as it tried to walk away rather than flying. They discovered an injury to its elbow.
After a quick call to Debbie Pappas, director of Second Chance Wildlife Rehabilitation in Price, Montague was on her way to Green River to hand off the bird to the experienced rehab professional.
Pappas found no broken bones. She gave the adult male raven some anti-inflammatory medicine and restricted its movements for several days.
"Thank goodness it didn't need much," Pappas said of medical treatment.
She and Montague celebrated the raven's return to health Thursday, May 9, by releasing it from the KZMU Radio parking lot on Rocky Road. They chose that spot because it was near the place Montague found the bird and provided an open space for it to fly.
"He'll stay around here for a day or so and then find his family," Pappas said after the raven flew to freedom.
She explained that ravens mate for life as long as both survive.
"They have really close social structures in their families," Pappas said, adding that she's seen ravens sit quietly for hours mourning the death of a member of their flock.
"They understand the concept of death and give reverence to their dead," she said.
The fast recovery was another success story for her rehab center, a calling she's followed for 20 years. Montague and La Sal resident Linda Webb are sub-licensed under Pappas' rehabilitation center and provide a place for injured birds or small mammals to stay until they can be given to Pappas.
They hope to do the same kind of rehabilitation work that Second Chance provides, and Pappas said there's need for more people to help injured critters.
"West Nile virus is a problem with these guys," Pappas said of ravens, which can live 15 to 20 years in the wild. "There also are poisonings and shootings, unfortunately."
Fundraiser benefits rehabilitation center
A day of wildlife education, fun and fundraising is set for Saturday, June 8, during an event called "Flock Together." Proceeds will benefit Second Chance Wildlife Rehabilitation of Price, which cares for injured birds and small mammals rescued by state agencies or citizens.
The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Scott M. Matheson Wetlands Preserve on Kane Creek Boulevard, and will include booths about wildlife rehabilitation, wildlife photography by Keith Cauley, and bat education by Tom Haraden. There also will be an owl calling contest.
A silent auction for Second Chance will be from 6 to 9 p.m. the same day at Eddie McStiff's, 57 S. Main St. Works of art by local artists and others throughout the state will be available, as well as other items.
For more information, call Debbie at 435-650-3441 or Sara at 435-259-0910.
