Normal, Ala. - The Tennessee State volleyball team (15-11, 8-4 OVC) used nine service aces to defeat the Bulldogs from Alabama A&M, 3-0 (25-17, 25-18, 25-20).
Sophomore Rachel Ambroch had four aces in the match while senior libero Britani Hathorn and sophomore Naomi Wells chipped in with three and four, respectively. The Tigers entered Tuesday's match leading the OVC with 1.54 aces per set.
Wells also recorded her ninth consecutive double-double with exactly 10 kills and a match-high 10 digs. She trailed only freshman Lindsay Hornsby, who ended up with 12 kills and a .426 hitting percentage.
Junior Erika Moss had 34 assists in the match to lead all setters. Moss has recorded at least 30 assists in every match since TSU's loss to Morehead State on Sept. 22.
Wells started the match by tallying back-to-back kills and Hathorn had her first ace to put TSU up 3-0. An attack error by Alabama A&M later in the set gave the Tigers a four-point lead and Moss' first kill in the match eventually made the score 11-3 with TSU on top. From that point, the Bulldogs never got within six of the Tigers' lead as TSU attackers racked up seven kills down the closing stretch of the period. Freshman Jordan Piper gave Tennessee State a 1-0 set advantage with a kill that was assisted by Moss.
Another ace from Hathorn got TSU off to a hot 2-0 start again in set two. Ambroch recorded three straight points after an Alabama A&M kill, giving the Tigers a 5-1 lead. The Bulldogs fought back with an 8-3 run later in the set to tie the score at 11. TSU trailed 14-13 when Hornsby scored a kill, and the Tigers never trailed in the set again. Tennessee State used an 8-1 run late in the frame to blow the game open. Four different attackers recorded kills during the string of scores, and sophomore Sherryce Butler put TSU up 2-0 with a set-ending spike.
Alabama A&M was much more competitive in the third set, and the two sides played to three-all early tie. From there, TSU went on a 5-1 run that was led by three kills from Hornsby. The Bulldogs stormed right back to tie the score at eight. The score was still even at 14 when the Tigers got back-to-back kills from freshman Emilie Sandve Aase in the midst of a 6-2 Tiger run. The Bulldogs got back within two, but Wells closed out the match with an assisted kill.
TSU hit .305 in the match and held the Bulldogs to just a .185 line.
The Tigers return home this weekend for a pair of OVC matches. TSU will first take on Morehead State on Friday night at 7 p.m. before battling the Colonels of Eastern Kentucky the following day. The match against EKU will start at 2 p.m. and will serve as the Tigers' senior night in honor of Britani Hathorn and Calasia Williams.

Islet Transplantation & Cell Biology
Translational Research to Cure Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes develops after insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas are destroyed. One of the most promising areas of diabetes research involves beta-cell replacement to restore insulin production.
Research in the Section on Islet Transplantation and Cell Biology is truly "bench to bedside," as investigators apply insights gained through basic research to clinical studies aimed at improving the success of islet-cell transplantation and beta-cell regeneration.
Bolstering Beta Cells
A major challenge in islet-cell transplantation is a dearth of donor pancreases, which are necessary for harvesting islet cells. Researchers in the section are conducting studies to identify other sources of insulin-producing cells.
One team has already succeeded in producing new islet cells from precursor pancreatic duct cells harvested from human donor tissue. Efforts now are focused on expanding the supply of these cells so that a sufficient quantity is available for transplantation. Another team is determining whether mouse embryonic stem cells can be coaxed into becoming functional beta cells.
Although approaches vary, these studies should be aided by the recent discovery in the section of a molecule known as mMafA, which is a key transcription factor for beta cells. Research indicates that mMafA not only is one of the major signals that activates the insulin gene, but also appears to play an important role in islet-cell development.
The function of the insulin-producing cells is highly specialized but can become impaired easily. Investigators are conducting studies to understand what function-impairing changes actually occur with hyperglycemia, and in the course of islet-cell isolation, encapsulation and transplantation, and how to prevent or reverse these changes
In addition, investigators are evaluating strategies that might make it possible one day to work with a patient's own cells and tissues to restore beta-cell functioning. Researchers use an animal model of pancreas regeneration to understand how to stimulate new growth of the islets. Recent studies done elsewhere indicate that it may be possible to convert liver cells into insulin-producing cells; researchers in the section are now studying this approach. In related work, another group in the section is studying whether cells from the pituitary gland can be re-engineered to behave like insulin-producing beta cells.
Protecting and Isolating Islet CellsResearchers in the section collaborate with colleagues in Joslin's Section on Immunology and Immunogenetics and other Harvard investigators to develop strategies to protect transplanted islet cells from autoimmune attack and rejection. This work ranges from basic research into immune-system cells to clinical studies to improve transplantation success rates in people.
One team in the section is conducting animal studies to assess the effectiveness of various methods to encapsulate islet cells before transplantation to provide a barrier against immune system attack. Another Joslin researcher has identified a class 1 antigen that appears to increase the susceptibility of insulin-producing beta cells to autoimmune attack and destruction. This laboratory work might one day provide a target for drug development.
Scientists in the section have been collaborating with colleagues at the Clinical Islet Transplantation Program at Harvard Medical School to increase the success of islet transplantation in people. The Human Islet Facility at Joslin uses donated pancreases to isolate islet cells, which have been successfully transplanted into a small number of patients with type 1 diabetes.

Skip to comments.Family Radio's Harold Camping Strangely Quiet as Oct. 21 'Judgment Day' Approaches
Posted on 09/26/2011 1:42:34 PM PDT by SeekAndFind
After suffering a stroke just days after falsely predicting that judgment day for the world and the rapture of Christians would be on May 21, 2011, Family Radio's Harold Camping has been relatively quite, not offering any new predictions for the end times, even as Oct. 21 approaches - the day the Bible teacher claims the world will come to an end.
In a "special announcement" dated Aug. 8 on its website, California-based Family Radio gave an update on Camping's health condition:
Mr. Campings condition following his stroke has improved substantially, and God willing, he will soon return home. He is very thankful for the excellent care he has received during his rehabilitation therapy, and is especially thankful for your prayers, as we give all the glory to God. We cannot say at this time when he will be able to return to the Open Forum, as his full recovery is in Gods hands and according to His timing. Mr. and Mrs. Camping wish to thank you for all the encouraging cards and letters, and for your continued prayers for a full recovery.
The Christian Post called Family Radio, located in Oakland, and was told Wednesday that there were no further updates on Camping's condition and that it was not known when the 90-year-old radio evangelist would be returning to his "Open Forum" program.
Camping suffered a stroke on June 9, with some Christians wondering if his ailment might have been some sort of divine judgment. The stroke reportedly made it a challenge for Camping to speak.
Camping, ridiculed in the mainstream media for his false judgment day and rapture prediction in May, has also been criticized by the Christian community and accused of misleading and abusing people with his erroneous teachings.
Many of Camping's "Open Forum" followers, taking the California man's teachings to heart, quit their jobs, sold their possessions, and dedicated their time, energy, and finances to warning the world about its imminent end.
When May 21, 2011, came and went, Camping stated that he was "flabbergasted" and soon amended his claims, saying that world actually experienced a "silent judgment day" on May 21, and that what actually occurred was as a spiritual judgment rather than a physical one.
In an extensive broadcast on May 23, Camping explained that, based on the biblical timeline he had formulated, the world would still come to an end on Oct. 21, 2011.
"It won't be spiritual on October 21, Camping said. "The world is going to be destroyed all together, but it will be very quick."
Needless to say, Camping's track record on biblical prophecies has been less than impressive.
Camping previously predicted judgement day would be on May 21, 1988 and then changed his calculations for a Sept. 7, 1994 judgment day.
As October 21 approaches, will Camping, or any of his dedicated followers, re-emerge to warn the world once again of its purported impending doom?
While evangelical Christians believe the world will come to some sort of end, believers do not generally accept that anyone can pinpoint the actual date of Jesus Christ's return.
According to a Pew Research Center survey, 82 percent of Americans believe that Christ will either definitely, probably, or will have returned to earth by 2050.
He'll declare next week!
Read the Tweets and check out the graphics on the bus.
Wish him good health, but he is a liar and false prophet if he claims to know day or hour.
Just sad...
Just like Sarah Palin! :D
Hey the guy is just trying to make a few more bucks before the end of the fiscal year.
Next year he can do it all again.
I hope that Microsoft has worked this into their software this time.
did he lose interest?
Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue.... (Proverbs 17:28)
Good response!
October 21? That's Simchat Torah!
The guys in a nursing home after having a severe stroke. We wont hear from him again.
The peace treaty will not necessarily be announced as a 7 year peace treaty. It could be, for example, 20 years. It is a period of 7 years on God's calendar. He knows.
The Cubs aren't going to the World Series this year, so the world can't end this year.
Actually he has addressed his "listeners " on his stations recently affirming the "prophecy " and denying hell for the unsaved..
RE: denying hell for the unsaved..
So what happens to the unsaved according to Camping?

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Company Subjected Female Employee to Sexual Harassment, Resulting in Intolerable Work Environment Forcing Her to Resign, Federal Agency Charged
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -Joe-Ryan Enterprises, Inc., a trucking company located in Phenix City, Ala., which does business as Joe Ryan Trucking, will pay $15,000 and offer other relief to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the agency announced today.
The EEOC's lawsuit alleged Joe Ryan Trucking subjected a female office clerk to a sexually hostile work environment including vulgar, insulting and derogatory comments about women and sexually explicit pictures in the workplace. At the time, the victim, Rhonda Brown, was the only female employee who regularly worked in the company's small office. According to the suit, the work environment became so intolerable Brown was forced to resign.
Sexual harassment violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The EEOC filed suit (No. 3:11-CV-0795) in U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Alabama, Eastern Division, after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement through its conciliation process.
The three-year consent decree issued by the court on May 14, 2013, includes $15,000 in monetary relief for Ms. Brown. The decree requires Joe Ryan to implement new policies and practices designed to prevent harassment, conduct employee training on anti-discrimination laws and post notices at the work site. Joe Ryan is also required to provide copies of documents to the EEOC concerning its policies, training efforts, and new complaints of sexual harassment during the time the decree is in effect.
Delner Franklin-Thomas, district director for the EEOC's Birmingham District Office, said, "A woman who chooses to work in a male-dominated industry or workplace does not give up her right to be free from sexual harassment. Employers who allow their workplaces to be permeated with sexually derogatory language and conduct are not meeting their obligations under federal law. When employers choose not to meet those obligations, the EEOC is prepared to pursue all appropriate means to hold them accountable."
Gerald Miller, senior trial attorney for the EEOC's Birmingham District Office, said, "We are pleased this settlement is targeted to improve the work environment for all employees in this workforce. It should help ensure no worker feels victimized because of gender."
The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. The EEOC's Birmingham District covers Alabama, Mississippi (except 17 northern counties) and the Florida Panhandle. Further information about
the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

Gibson is proud to introduce the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior. Designed in close cooperation with Billie Joe, the signature guitar is modeled closely after "Floyd," Billie Joe's original 1956 Les Paul Junior. With a mahogany body and neck and nickel hardware, the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior combines the best features of a vintage Junior with some modern twists. With a new special design stacked double-coil H-90 and a vintage style non-compensated wraparound tailpiece, the Billie Joe Armstrong is a ferocious, resonant rock 'n' roll guitar, truly worthy of Billie Joe's name.
from left: detail of a Vintage Sunburst model, and Billy Joe onstage with a Vintage White model.
Since emerging from the close-knit punk scene of California's East Bay in the early 1990s, Green Day have evolved into one of the most popular and creatively ambitious rock 'n' roll bands of all time. Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong—drawing on the buzz saw guitar of the Ramones and Hüsker Dü and the raw poetics of the Replacements' Paul Westerberg—has evolved over the years into a fiercely distinctive guitarist and songwriter.
Combining melodic chord voicing with a blistering, jackhammer rhythm, Armstrong's playing deftly underscores the mood and theme of his songs. Buoyed by one of rock's truly great rhythm sections—bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tré Cool—Armstrong has proven just how much can be accomplished with one guitar, bass, and drums. From the swinging dynamics of the band's 1994 breakthrough hit "Longview" to the staggering Who-like sprawl of 2004's amazing American Idiot, Green Day have honored the traditions of their influences while taking stripped-down rock 'n' roll to dizzying creative heights.
This fantastic (and affordable!) Gibson Les Paul is available is three finishes: Vintage Sunburst, Ebony and Vintage White.

Jul 18 | By Joerg Colberg
Ever since writing about at what stage some photograph might be too similar to some other photograph (also see this follow-up), I have been thinking about how to approach the topic in a more productive manner. In part, this is for slightly selfish reasons: I'm a bit tired of these kinds of debates ("Did photographer X rip off photographer Y?"), and I'd love to have a better answer when asked. So I thought a good approach might be to start from the idea and not from the images. (more)

To change the future, one must understand the past. A degree in history helps us to understand how people and societies behave and their motivations for their actions. From this fundamental basis, we can understand change and how the society came to be. It also sparks a moral understanding of a society's motivations, which is essential for good citizenship. The study of history thus plays a vital role in understanding the present and shaping what is to come. A history B.A. helps students cultivate analytical, critical thinking, and communication skills they can apply in many professions. It provides a solid base from which undergraduates can move into a wide variety of specialized programs in graduate or professional schools, or into a teaching career. Beyond these, the study of history has provided the background for thousands of the nation's most successful lawyers, journalists, government administrators, authors, performing artists, ministers, and politicians. Please contact Dr. Michael Epple (firstname.lastname@example.com), History Program Leader, for more information regarding our B.A. in History, minor in History, or the various interdisciplinary minors.
FGCU's history M.A. program cultivates our students' skills in historical research and helps them develop a sophisticated and complex understanding of a range of historical events, issues, and debates within a global context. Our program will prepare students for further academic study (e.g., Ph.D. programs in history or related subjects) and equip them with the necessary skills to think critically, communicate effectively, and practice history in various capacities in the public and private sectors. Students can take courses in U.S. History, Public History, and in Latin American and Caribbean, European, African, or Asian History. Students can select a thesis or non-thesis option. Classes take place in small seminar sessions that emphasize discussion and shared learning, and graduate students are given the opportunity to work closely with our distinguished faculty members. Please contact Scott Rohrer (email@example.com or 239-590-7258 ), Graduate Program Leader, for more information regarding our M.A. in History.

Abstract Valley
A glacier approached the She Spirit as she stood admiring her creation, the gigantic Metal Flower. "I must do something quickly or the glacial drift will destroy my creation!"
Aloud she said, "The God of creation has forsaken me. He now wants to destroy my 'Metal Flower'!"
"What can I do to preserve its beauty!" she asked herself.
With the hand of her wind she uprooted 'Metal Flower' and then she road it like a sleigh.
In the wake of her sleigh many grey chasms were carved.
Her solitude on the earth was now echoed by the thrill of her till as she heard the sound form the death of her tines circle around the earth to greet her again.
She rejoiced in screeching wretched happiness as she rode her 'Metal Flower' sleigh that was brought to a deadening dullness on earth.
She stood up and looked around her and saw that she had ruined 'Metal Flower'!
Then her spirit shrieked and imploded. The entropy from it flowed chaotically in the hollow and void ashen grey crevices that had formed as she rode the beauty of Her creation.
Its thin stream of ash seemed to be searching frantically and inescapably in the gravity that bound it, lost to the horizon!

Gorillaz Don't Just Ask Fans To Remix, But Offer Them A Full Specialized Synth App Too
from the a-step-up dept
Tons of artists now release stems of their music for fans to remix. It's pretty common to see "remix" contests as well. Still, it's pretty interesting to see how some bands are taking it even further. Eliot Van Buskirk alerts us to the news that Damon Albarn's "virtual band" project, The Gorillaz, have teamed up with Korg to offer a special KORG iElectribe Gorillaz Edition for the iPad. The regular iElectribe is just an iPad synthesizer, which people seem to like. But the Gorillaz edition has a different (more fun, more Gorillaz-style) user interface design (making it look like it's been around the block and run over by a truck or two along the way), along with a ton of presets using music from The Gorillaz' latest album. So, instead of just giving people stems and telling them to remix, this is almost like an album bundled with its own synth tool in one package. I expect we'll start seeing things a lot more advanced than this. Why release just a plain old album when you can start to enable your fans to do much more with your music?

13 Assassins (UK - DVD R2)
Marcus goes to a town of death with 200 friends and it ends up being an ambush
Based on a true incident, 13 Assassins is the story of a group of warriors banding together for a suicide mission to take out Lord Naritsugu (Gorô Inagaki), a sadistic lord who wants to bring on a war and has no compassion for the lives around him. Upon hearing of Nartisugu's heinous crimes, a noble samurai named Shinzaemon (Kôji Yakusho) takes up the task of hiring the group of fighters. Shaking with the excitement at the possibility of an honorable samurai death, he gathers a group of thirteen dedicated assassins. Together they devise a plan to take on Naritsugu's personal army of seventy men, led by Shinzaemon's fiercely dedicated rival, Hanbei (Masachika Ichimura).
13 Assassins is a total celebration of everything that's great about samurai movies. With echoes of Seven Samurai as well as other Kurosawa-esq outings, Takashi Miike brings together thirteen thoroughly likable characters to undertake an impossible mission against the utterly detestable Lord Naritsugu and despite the relativity slow build up, the payoff coming in the final 50 minute battle is simply astonishing to watch unfold.
By the time the assassins turn a small trading town into a "Town of Death" we have all the dramatic pieces in place to enjoy the attempts on taking out Lord Naritsugu. Every one of the assassins have their own reasons for their involvement and as each one gets their spotlight moment in some of the most fluid and well choreographed sword battles in what seems like ages and it's through this, Takashi Miike's movie goes from great to astonishing. There's a pace to this battle that not even the best action movie directors always achieve. Each turn brings something else to take you by surprise. Giant spiked walls blocking in enemies, flaming bulls tearing down the streets, explosions of blood or just the simplicity of someone being ridiculously good with a sword or two. All of this stuff is simply put, amazing to watch and it feels perfectly balanced with the growing drama of seeing these 13 assassins achieving their ultimate goal.
13 Assassins was a joy once it got going and even the slow build up was full of great dialogue and well handled drama. The minimal effects work well with the action and it was a breath of fresh air to see it so simply done. The feeling that these guys have been through a whole world of shit as the movie comes to a close was genuinely felt and added so much weight to the final few one-on-one fights to wrap up events. Takashi Miike has delivered a bit of a classic in my mind. One of those movies that will be referred to and probably mimicked for a good few years because when someone perfectly masters a genre and in addition to that ups the game as well as this, you really can't help but go nuts for it.
Well after all that hype for the movie, it's a bloody shame the DVD is a washy soft let down. There's the odd burst of strong colour, such as the green of the forest, the red wine looking blood or some of the awesome black costumes worn by the assassins but the lack of sharpness or fine detail really kills it. Also the night scenes are a touch too dark and gets a little grubby in places and it's a real shame. This really is one of those DVDs that has scene after scene of visuals you know would look so much better on Blu-ray and frankly it's distracting.
Well after a poor underwhelming visual presentation it's good to know the audio is a lot more satisfying. The strong dialogue is great in the centre speaker and the soft underpinning score fills out the fronts very well. It's the ambience of the locations that utilise the rear speakers in the relativity quiet first half of the movie, small crackles from burning candles sit subtly as do extras in and around the scenes. As for the second half when the battles kick off, the clarity of the sword clangs and swooshes sound bloody fantastic. Deep sounding stabs full of grisly blood sprays and a very powerful explosion full of debris and rubble really gives the track a good run and once again the score really gives the track a full sound and provides a thoroughly encompassing affair.
Before the details, I want to mention the god awful menu design here which consist of a still image of the cover artwork - but someone decided it was a good idea to animate the eyes giving a weird action man eyes feeling. Seriously it's terrible.
Moving on to the good stuff we get 22 minutes of deleted scenes and a nineteen minute interview with Takashi Miike, which while full of solid details from the directors feels like it was filmed for morning TV and the female presenter just seems to be reeling out repetitive questions and not really rolling off of Takashi Miike answers. There's some good stuff in here but it's not really all that in depth. Finally there's the trailer (01:56) which is a shame because this one really deserved a good making of.
13 Assassins just plain rocked. Out of all of the period action dramas I've seen of late this is by far the best one, impressing me on every level and packed floor to ceiling with fantastic characters and moments so incredibly cool it makes the rest of the action movies in 2011 look like they should try much harder next time (and use less CGI). The disc itself has a solid audio track but the video is a disappointment as are the features despite a few glimmers of good stuff. That said the movie itself is strong enough to warrant your time, though going for the HD option will no doubt be the better idea.

Veteran defensive back Charles Woodson is slated to meet with the Raiders on Tuesday, and Raiders coach Dennis Allen said he is hopeful of bringing back the player that once starred in a silver-and-black uniform.
"I want to do anything we can to help this team get better," Allen said Monday. "So, we'll see how that process goes."
The Raiders reportedly already made an initial offer to Woodson, 36. The 49ers and Denver Broncos are the only two teams that Woodson has met with since he was released by the Green Bay Packers.
Woodson told the Maize and Blue News that he is open to finishing his career with the team that selected him with the fourth pick of the 1998 NFL draft.
"It would be a really big thing to go back to Oakland being that I played there really most of my career," Woodson said.
Woodson spent his first eight seasons with the Raiders. He signed with the Green Bay Packers in 2006 and spent the past seven seasons there.
"I spent most of my career in Oakland and I still have a lot of friends there," Woodson said. "I still know people in the organization. It would be a homecoming of sorts if it were to happen. So, we'll see."
The Raiders are in need of a replacement for released free safety Michael Huff. For now, Brandian Ross and Usama Young are the leading candidates to take over for Huff.
Signing Woodson would give the Raiders a proven player to pair up with veteran strong safety Tyvon Branch on the back end of their retooled defense.
Woodson earlier this offseason said he wanted to sign with a legitimate Super Bowl contender. He since has backed off that hard-line stance as a result of a dearth of offers.
Last week, Woodson left Denver without receiving a contract offer. As of now, he said he isn't sure how things are going to play out.
"I don't have any idea, really," Woodson said. "I plan on playing. I have a visit set up this week with the Oakland Raiders, so I'll go out there and sit down with the coaching staff, GM and all of that, and we'll figure it out from there."
Raiders quarterback Matt Flynn spent four seasons with Woodson at the Packers. He said he's eager to see how things play out.
"Everybody knows he's a great player, but he's also a great man, a great teammate, great leader," Flynn said. "The front office, Reggie (McKenzie, general manager) and them, are going to make the right decision (about) what they think is going to be best for us going forward."
Woodson intrigued by prospect of re-signing with Raiders

A third person has been arrested in connection to last year's bank robbery of the Members Credit Union location in Thomasville.
A third person has been arrested in connection to last year's bank robbery of the Members Credit Union location in Thomasville.
Toria Ladayle Holloman, 37, of 401 Kern St., Apt. A, Thomasville, was placed in the Davidson County Detention Center early Thursday morning under a $100,000 secured bond. She has been charged with felony robbery with dangerous weapon, along with two others — Clarence D. Lee, 41, of 5365 Esther Lane, Charlotte, and Avery Lamar Clark, 24, of 4540 Mill Village Road, Raleigh — both of whom face the same charge. Lee and Clark were arrested this past month.
The three people are accused of taking more than $22,000 in cash from the Members Credit Union at 100 Lines St., according to court documents.
A call about the robbery at the Members Credit Union came in about 1:30 p.m. July 18, 2012. A man entered the bank and displayed a semiautomatic handgun, according to the TPD. As he left with the cash, he got into a vehicle driven by another man.
Two tellers were inside the bank at the time of the robbery, police said. No shots were fired, and no one was injured. After the incident, police located a gold Buick Regal they believe the robbers used, but no suspects were found, according to emergency communications.
A TPD detective, according to arrest warrants, alleges Clark, Holloman and Lee stole $22,731 by threatening a teller with a semi-automatic handgun. The warrant for Clark's arrest was issued March 1 after an investigation by the TPD, the warrant for Lee's arrest was issued April 15, and the warrant for Holloman's arrest was issued Wednesday.
A spokesman with the Thomasville Police Department was not immediately available for comment Thursday morning.
Clark has a court date of May 28, and Lee has a court date Tuesday. Holloman has a court date of May 22.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
Diversity of Living Camelids
The Camelidae (camels and relatives) are sufficiently distinct from other families in the mammal order Artiodactyla that they are placed in their own suborder, Tylopoda ("padded foot"). This suborder includes only the family Camelidae, which is divided into two tribes, the Camelini and Lamini. The Camelini includes just two living representatives, the Bactrian Camel (Camelus bactrianus) and the Dromedary (Camelus dromedarius). The Lamini includes four species: Guanaco (Lama guanicoe), Llama (Lama glama), Viçuna (Vicugna vicugna), and Alpaca (Vicugna pacos).
The earliest camelids evolved in North America, where they flourished for forty to fifty million years, with the last known North American camelids disappearing only around 10,000 years ago. Six to seven million years ago, camels that would give rise to the Dromedary and Bactrian Camel spread into Asia, across Europe, and as far west as Spain. Three to four million years ago, camelids that would give rise to the current day South American species spread south across the Panamanian Land Bridge. Because of their their ability to thrive under tough conditions of extreme temperature and scarce food and water, domesticated camelids have been extremely important to the development of human cultures in the steppes of Eurasia, the deserts of Africa, and the arid Andes of South America.
All camelids are diurnal and are adapted to harsh and dry climates. They are all highly social.
Six living species of camelids are recognized by Franklin (2011), three of which are domesticated forms.
1) Bactrian Camel (Camelus bactrianus). The Bactrian Camel is associated with Central Asia. The wild form (known to science only since 1878) is critically endangered in its remote Gobi Desert homeland, but the domesticated form is found widely in Asia. The relationship between the wild and domesticated forms remains unclear. Bactrian Camels were domesticated 4,000-6,000 years ago. Some authorities recognize the wild form as a distinct species, Camelus ferus, in part based on preliminary genetic evidence that the wild and domestic "Bactrian Camel" lineages actually diverged hundereds of thousands of years ago.
2) Dromedary (Camelus dromedarius). This one-humped camel is associated with northern Africa and southwestern Asia. This camel is entirely domesticated (except for a free-ranging feral population in central Australia that was introduced in the late 1800s). The Dromedary was domesticated around 4000-5000 years ago; the wild form is believed to have gone extinct by 2000-5000 years ago. The Dromedary's hump contains a large fat reservoir that sustains it through times of scarcity. When the animal is well fed, the hump is plump and erect, but in starved animals it shrinks or flops to one side. Even when food is plentiful, Dromedaries may travel 30 km/day. A range of domesticated Dromedary varieties have been bred as pack or riding animals or for milk or meat. In the wet season, when lush, green plants are available, Dromedaries can go eight months without drinking. They can tolerate water loss greater than 30% of body weight (half this loss is fatal for most mammals).
3) Guanaco (Lama guanicoe). The heart of this species' range is Patagonia, in southern South America, but this is the most widely distributed wild artiodactyl in South America and occurs in four of the continent's 10 major habitats: desert and xeric shrublands, montane and lowland grasslands, savannas and shrublands, and wet temperate forests. Guanacos are both grazers and browsers and range from coastal forests at sea level to sparsely vegetated alpine deserts at 4500 m. In some areas, they may be found in isolated but productive meadows. Galloping Guanacos can exceed 55 km/h.
4) Llama (Lama glama). This species, domesticated largely as a pack animal and meat source (although there is a less common long-wooled form valued for its wool), is derived from the Guanaco lineage. Llamas were domesticated between 4000 and 6000 years ago. With a mass of up to 220 kg, Llamas are the largest of the four South American camelids and the tallest Neotropical mammals.
5) Viçuna (Vicugna vicugna). This species is far more specialized in its habitat needs than is the Guanaco, being restricted to the high Andean Puna at 3200-4800 m. The Viçuna and Guanaco lineages are believed to have diverged between two and three million years ago. The unique equatorial high-altitude short grassland in which the viçuna lives is found above the treeline but below the snowline. With their gazelle-like build, viçuna are the smallest camelids. The Viçuna and Alpaca are the only living ungulates with continuously growing incisors, like rodents. Viçuna and Alpacas need to drink frequently, unlike other camelids.
6) Alpaca (Vicugna pacos). This species, domesticated largely as a wool producer, is derived from the Viçuna lineage. Its long, thick wool can give an alpaca the bulky appearance of a Llama (in fact, it was at one time placed in the genus Lama, before its much closer relationship with the Viçuna was recognized). More than a million small producers in the central Andes depend upon the Alpaca and Llama as their pricipal means of subsistence. Most Alpacas are kept in herds of fewer than 50 individuals, but some commercial herds can reach 50,000 animals. Alpacas are believed to have been domesticated between 5500 and 6500 years ago.
Llamas and Alpacas have hybridized extensively.
Camels and Humans
Camelids have played critical roles in a range of human societies. For thousands of years in Central Asia and Asia Minor, domestic Bactrian Camels have served as pack animals in times of peace and war and as draft animals for ploughing and pulling carts. They connected the East and West over the Silk Road, bringing Siberian and Indian goods to the Persians. They have also provided meat, milk, and wool, without which the Gobi Desert would have been uninhabitable for humans. Because these camels are intolerant of high temperature for long periods while they are working, caravans traveling westward from China across the Gobi Desert always traveled in winter. Since at least 1000 BC, Bactrian Camels have been intentionally hybridized with Dromedaries, yielding especially strong pack animals known as Bukhts. Hybrids are also produced in an effort to combine the higher milk production of the Dromedary with the cold tolerance of the Bactrian. The world population of domestic Bactrians is estimated to be somewhere between around 750,000 and one million (according to some sources, as many as two million), with most of these animals found in Mongolia and China.
In the hot deserts of North Africa, Dromedaries have served as beasts of burden and provided meat, milk, fat, and fuel, as well as soft wool for clothing and tents. In some areas, live Dromedaries are bled for consumption of the blood (with a single individual yielding up to 35 liters per year).
Around 95% of the camelids in the Old World are Dromedaries, with nearly all of the remaining 5% being domestic Bactrian Camels (there are no more than a few thousand wild Bactrian Camels). In the New World, around 47% of camelids are Llamas, 41% Alpacas, 8% Guanacos, and 4% Viçunas.

Ottoman Tutorial | DIY Ottoman $50 | Emma's Nursery
I do not hesitate to invest in furniture pieces that will last a lifetime. Somethings, however, I can't stand to spend money on. For Emma's nursery (to see all of the photos, click here!), we spent our money on the Crib and Chair. I knew I would need a high quality and comfortable chair, and we selected a classic crib that will never go out of style so I didn't mind spending the money on those two items.
When we went to order the ottoman that went along with the rocker/glider from Pottery Barn Kids, I was shocked that it was almost $450! For a little padded box? I just couldn't do it. So, Mike and I set out on a mission to create our own matching ottoman. With great success we created a perfectly suited version for less than $50. We were so excited that we made a coffee table version for our living room, too.
DIY Ottoman Materials :
4" Foam Pad
Soft Wool Batting
Staple Gun & Staples
Cream Twill
4 Furniture Legs
Here is the photo DIY :
To complete, just attach furniture legs. We bought legs and the mounts at Home Depot for about $15 total... I'm still trying to decide if I like the legs we selected, or if I want something chunkier. They have many other choices there. After I decide, then I'll need to decide if I want to paint or stain them... or leave them natural. Never ends! I'll keep you posted on how I finish them!

Suffolk University chatted with Christine a few days before she takes on the Boston Marathon.
Q: How has law school helped with your marathon training?
A: Distance running and law school are surprisingly similar. Just like you can't cram for a law school exam and receive a good grade, you can't show up at the starting line of a marathon without the proper training and expect to run a good race. Both require discipline, long-term planning, and preparation in order to succeed. Running is also a great way to de-stress from the rigors of law school. I find I'm better able to focus on my schoolwork after a good run.
Q: What's it like having Boston as your training ground?
A: When I do run in Boston, I like to go someplace quiet like the Esplanade, to avoid traffic and crosswalks. Nothing beats running across the Mass. Ave Bridge and looking at the Boston skyline.
Q: Why run a marathon?
A: I am running the Boston Marathon on behalf of The Jett Foundation, a non-profit based in my hometown [Pembroke, MA], that raises money and awareness for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The foundation was looking for someone willing to raise money and run the marathon on their behalf. Because I had done both of those things in the past, I applied and was chosen as the Foundation's runner for 2013. This will be my third marathon. [Ed-note: You can donate to Christine's campaign here]
Q: What has your Suffolk Law experience been like?
A: My Suffolk experience has been wonderful. My professors and classmates are all top notch; despite the size of the law school there's a real sense of community here. The mentors I have met and the professional network I have developed while at Suffolk will be a valuable asset as I enter the working world.
Q: Advice to other marathon running law students?
A: Any law student who wishes to run a marathon must be realistic about the amount of time it takes to train properly. It can be done, but it's a serious commitment and involves adding another time-consuming element to the delicate balance of school, work, family, and the like. I recommend finding a good training plan and then treating your runs like any other important obligation that cannot be missed, like classes or work.
Christine Griffin, 24-years-old, is in her third year at Suffolk University Law School, from Pembroke, MA.

Car Review
2012 Ford Explorer: Real World Test
With so many compact and mid-size SUVs available, is there still a need for a full-size SUV like the 2012 Ford Explorer? To find out, we took the Explorer on a road trip to see how well this full-size crossover SUV fares in the real world.
I traveled as the lone adult with my young son Daniel and his four teenaged siblings - two sets of twins. We were headed west to northern Mississippi, where I would drop off Daniel to spend a few weeks at his grandfather's farm.
Cargo Space
Loading our luggage was ridiculously easy. Instead of having to remove the third-row seats, like in the Chevrolet Tahoe, I only had to push a button and watch the back row disappear, leaving a flat cargo area with no trace of the hidden seats. This eliminates the hassle of unlatching the third row and having to store it in the garage until the next time you plan to haul a few more friends. Although both the Chevrolet Tahoe and its twin, the GMC Yukon lack fold-flat third row seats, many modern SUVs and minivans have this feature. However, not all of them are as easy to use as the Explorer's. Plus, once those seats were folded, there was so much storage space that we could have thrown in our own garden supplies and horse feed to restock Grandpa's farm. Instead, my little one spread out in the second row with his road trip supplies and Pillow Pet.
People Space
Here's the big question: Did the kids sit comfortably? Sitting in the third row were two boys, one 16, one 13, both over 5'7". They had plenty of headroom and more legroom than in most mid-size or small SUVs. In the middle row, a 13-year-old girl, another 16-year-old boy and little Daniel fit quite comfortably in their seats with ample legroom. In the front, my father (6'3") and I (5'7") were able to enjoy a comfortable if not luxurious amount of space.
On- and Off-Road
Ford redesigned the Explorer for 2011. In the process, the wheelbase grew five inches compared with the previous truck based version. On the road, the ride is extremely quiet and unexpectedly smooth. The Explorer handles better than truck-based SUVs like the Tahoe or even the previous version of the Explorer. Since this Explorer is more like a car-based crossover, it simply feels more secure and stable. In fact, the Explorer felt strong, steady, and impenetrable - the way our Chevrolet Silverado 3500 drives when we haul our horses to shows.
Growing up, I believed that trucks, Jeeps and Land Rovers were the only suitable four-wheel-drive vehicles; this was a hard lesson after getting a Ford Expedition stuck in the mud and a Dodge Dakota stuck in a sand volleyball court. Trying out Ford's new Terrain Management system in the redesigned Explorer was intriguing, and once in Mississippi, it wasn't hard to figure out a way to test the various modes. Ford's intelligent four-wheel-drive system uses powertrain and braking controls to give the best traction in a variety of conditions. Changing among modes (normal, hill descent, mud, sand and snow) is as easy as rotating a center-console-mounted dial.
At the sand and gravel pits, we tested the Explorer in sand, potholes, mud, grass and gravel. The Explorer only got stuck once, when I hit a big mound of sand while driving perhaps a bit too slowly. A quick throw into reverse and a kick back to forward, and the SUV made its way out of the sand more quickly and with greater ease than our duallie would have.
Tack on the steering-wheel-mounted controls, two USB ports for MP3 player connections, intelligent adaptive cruise control with brake assist and the intuitive four-wheel-drive system, and the 2012 Ford Explorer is a pretty compelling family car. Plus, the cost to fill the Explorer's tank is about the same as it takes to fill a BMW 530i on premium fuel, so if you have a growing family and are moving from a sport sedan to a full-size SUV, you may not feel a big hit at the pump.
At $28,870 for the base model and $37,680 for the Limited edition, we're left wondering if it's possible the 2012 Ford Explorer might just be the king of SUVs.

Mental Illness & Bullying
Breaking the Code of Silence
We see all the ads of going back to school everywhere we look… Did you get your pencil crayons and new cloths?? At Alive Health
Centre, Morning Sun and Supplements Plus, going back to school, means more than just buying new things. We want to let our kids know that going back to school means being ready to face challenges, face fears, stand up to bullies by asking for help and to do these things by being respectful. As many others before me have said, our children are our future. Therefore, we need to give them all the opportunities we possibly can; such as the opportunity of optimal health. PAGE 3 is dedicated to: Brain power, Energy and Healthy Immune. Throughout the whole flyer we are thinking about Moms, Dads and ALL families. Too busy to eat quality nutrients try PG 2 VegEssentials or PG 4 Garden of Life Raw, Organic, Vegan Protein Meals. Stressed out? PG 4 Alive GABA, it's Natural and works quickly to help those suffering from insomnia and anxiety.
Lastly, despite the sad news in the world lately, I thought we should continue to raise awareness on issues such as bullying whenever possible. So even if one person gets something out of this article, it will be worth it. As you know it is our Mission: To change the world through healthy living by putting you first. So I will share this article written by Alive Magazine, Ellen Niemer. "Some people feel that kids shouldn't tell anyone about being bullied, because it only makes it worse. I think they should. Bullies operate best under a code of silence – a lot of people may know about the bullying, but if they all keep it to themselves, they are aiding and abetting the bully. A new study released shows that kids who are exposed to bullying run an increased risk of developing psychiatric disorders as adults. And that's whether they're the victim or the perpetrator. The study also revealed that kids who are both bullies and victims run the highest risk of suicide. Whether we deal with bullies as kids, or as adults, in our homes, our schools, our playgrounds, or our workplaces, let's break the code of silence. Have you been bullied? Let us know how you dealt with it." www.alivehealthblog.com or facebook.com/alivehealth.
Call me old fashioned, but I will leave you with this…"Nothing is impossible. The word says, I'm Possible." – Audrey Hepburn
If there is not a location near you we would love to help you with a mail order. MAIL ORDER: Toll free 1-866-499-9546
We hope that you will come and visit us at either Alive Health Centre, Morning Sun or Supplements Plus. Do not sit in silence; there are so many things you can do to better your health! Get excited and take charge of your health. Let's work together, along with your doctor to ensure you are doing all you can to lead a happy and healthy life. Our team looks forward to helping you with what ever your health concerns are.

"But America cannot resist this transition; we must lead it. We cannot cede to other nations the technology that will power new jobs and new industries – we must claim its promise."
Obama, arguably the most wind-friendly president, had repeatedly hyped the value of wind jobs during his 2012 re-election campaign.
His administration has also been locked in a trade war with China over dumped renewable-energy components such as Chinese wind-turbine towers.
And the White House has called for better protection of American intellectual property in China, even referring to the case of the Massachusetts-based wind company AMSC.
"We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations," continued Obama in yesterday's closely watched speech.
The comment suggests he may stick to a promise to make climate change a major issue during his second and final four-year term.

SMAC foes play to 1-1 tie Saturday
Sturgis and Niles played to a 1-1 tie Saturday in SMAC soccer action.
Luis Olivares, the head coach for the Trojans, said his team did come out ready to play.
"We played well in the first half but in the second half we didn't have the same focus or intensity," Olivares said. "I'm not really sure what happened. Our communication wasn't the same as it was in the first half and we allowed them to get back into the game. I'm hoping we play better in both halves in our next game."
Sturgis will host Portage Central coming up on Tuesday.
In Saturday's game, Jonathan Gonzalez scored the lone Trojan goal in the opening half.
Jesus Becerril was in net, making five saves. Olivares said the game against Portage Central will be a tough one, but his team can win if they play well.
"We have to step up and play in our system and we will have great opportunities," Olivares said. "We need to communicate better against them and we need to stay focused on what we are trying to accomplish."
The Trojans are now 9-4-2.

South Dakota State Football Team Loses Co-Defensive Coordinator
South Dakota State co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach Jay Bubak has resigned after nine seasons to pursue other interests outside of coaching.
Bubak was the longest-tenured assistant on head coach John Stiegelmeier's staff, joining the Jackrabbits in 2005 as defensive coordinator and linebackers coach. From 2007-10 he coached the defensive backs before returning to coach the linebackers in 2011.
In a SDSU press release, Stiegelmeier said:
It's a major loss to our coaching staff.
Jay was truly a difference maker for SDSU and Jackrabbit football.
He did a great job in every phase — coaching, recruiting and mentoring.
South Dakota State made the playoffs in two different seasons while Bubak was on the staff, 2009 and last season.
In 2009, SDSU finished fourth in the nation in pass efficiency defense, 14th in rushing defense, 16th in scoring defense, and 17th in total defense.
In 2012, the Jacks were 4th in the FCS pass efficiency defense, 5th in scoring defense, and 8th in total defense.
South Dakota State opens the 2013 season Saturday, August 31st, when they host Butler.

Reading Group Guide
A Homemade Life by Molly Wizenberg, freelance food writer and creator of the award-winning blog Orangette, is part touching personal memoir, part wonderful recipe collection. Molly recounts a life with food at its heart, where delicious recipes intertwine with the stories of her family, growing up, beginning a blog, even meeting and marrying her husband. Written in a lively, accessible style, A Homemade Life is as much at home on the bookshelf as it is in the kitchen.
Discussion Questions
1. In her introduction, Molly describes her love for the intangible things about cooking. She explains, "When we fall in love with a certain dish, I think that's what we're often responding to: that something else behind the fork or the spoon, the familiar story that food tells" (p. 2). Are there any dishes that you associate with a particular story, person, time, or place? Describe those dishes and the intangible meaning they have for you.
