I posted a year or so ago about a problem with my Echo Pro and never received a response. I thought I'd revisit the issue to see if it magically resolved! of course, it is still doing the same thing. I even tried resetting it to factory defaults. Anyway, here's the problem:
Upon power up, the unit lights up and goes through its booting process. I can plug an instument into its input and see a signal on the input meter. However, I cannot get an output signal from the device. I have plugged its output directly into a powered speaker, headphones, and even my toneport ux2 input and I don't get any signal.
Please tell me this is a simple fix. I'd really hate to think I have an expensive door stop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Chris,
It could be a simple fix, but after all the detailed info you provided of your troubleshooting, a repair tech will need to open up your unit and check the output side of the unit.
It obviously receives an input signal, but none of the physical output options work.
The information above may not be current, and you should direct questions to the current forum or review the manual.

Once upon, once again …
The dragon has been slain, but the problems have just begun for Prince Charming.
Disowned by his father, the King, and abandoned by his only friend, William Pickett, Charming must find a new path in life—but he's going to need a lot of help.

Geralt is a witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless assassin. Yet he is no ordinary murderer: his targets are the multifarious monsters and vile fiends that ravage the land and attack the innocent.
He roams the country seeking assignments, but gradually comes to realise that while some of his quarry are unremittingly vile, vicious grotesques, others are the victims of sin, evil or simple naivety.
©1993 Andrzej Sapkowski (P)2014 Orion Publishing Group
"Surprisingly witty, funny and all round Amazing."
loved listening from start to finish. Had to stop listening at points due to the urge to burst out laughing at some of the wit but the humour is second to the amazing writing.
"fantastic Polish fantasy."
I am a fan of RPG videogame The Witcher and when I found out it is based on this novel, I did not hesitate to read it. it is very good. You meet Geralt of Rivia, a witcher whose job is to kill monsters.
This book is a collection of short stories telling tales of Geralt, his deals with politics ( unwilling but hard to avoid ) and the people who are friends in adventures ( Dandelion) and many lovers. Geralt is a mutated witcher and strange looking, but this only attracts women to him.
This book is for a more mature audience and should be the first one to read to get a glimpse of who the witcher is, but don't stop here. There are others to be read.
"Big fan of the games, didn't disappoint"
Having played the Witcher games and fallen in love with Geralt's character I thought I'd give the books a look in. This collection of short stories was a refreshing change of pace from the epic fantasy I often listen to, but didn't seem disjointed (which I often find a problem with collections) as they are all linked together nicely. Well narrated at a good pace - I usually speed up to at least x1.5, my only criticism is the accent used for Geralt, but very minor and subjective after all. Great listen.
"Good performance of a decent story"
Decent story elevated further by a good performance by the narrator. Would be interested in further takes set in this world
"Not quiet what was expected"
It felt more like a collection of disjointed short stories rather than a complete book per se. They fitted togeather and didn't all at the same time, that said I did enjoy it, the stories moved swiftly, maybe lacked some depth due to the lack of background or history, but as a bunch of short stories put together it works and is a light and easy listen. The narrator wasn't too annoying either and he did grow on me as the stories progressed. Give it a try you will probably surprise yourself and enjoy it. Looking forward to seeing how the next book progress's the storyline.
"Amazing book."
I absolutely loved this book. My only problems are the mispronounciations of some names of characters and places. Otherwise i loved this
"Not what I expected"
There were a number of clever references to common folk law and fairytales which usually have a twist to them. This was an interesting concept for a fantasy book.
I did struggle with the style of writing, the book is almost a collection of short stories which are not told in chronological order. This certainly left me at times trying to understand what events had already happened and which had not. I would also mention that the chattering of the audiobook is not the best, it chapters at separate stories but does not sub chapter the individual "parts" as they are described by the narrator.
I would have changed the order of the individual stories and tried to make the chronology easier to understand.
Some of the voices performed in this book were cleverly performed but, particularly the goat character was really annoying to listen to. Other than that it was a good performance.
"Phenomenal voice acting, good story"
Good build up of the Witcher's world and the characters, often presenting intriguing situations with shades of grey (an nice juxtaposition to the black & white of the fairy tales it derives stories from).
I only know Peter Kenny by his Witcher work, and it is all top-drawer. Easily the best audiobook performance I've ever heard. Delivers dialog with character, emotional nuance and differentiated voices.
Definitely. But pleasingly, as a short story collection with an overarching narrative, it holds up well to brief bursts too.
The translation is very good, and presents an interesting and coherent story in English. Dialog feels well-written and natural, with little to mark it as a translation rather than native.That "little bit" is the tendency to repeat the chapter titles in the dialog, which occasionally feels forced. In the original Polish Sapkowski is praised for his intricate wordplay, so I think these title repeats are non-translatable pieces of writing.
This tiny oddity is why I have deducted a point from the story. However I feel this book is very strong despite this minor flaw, and the voice acting is beyond criticism.
Anyone who wonders if the narrative strengths of the witcher III is repeated in the books, I can assure you that it is. These books match the best mileu and characterisation of the game.
"An enjoyable series of short stories"
A series of stories based around the mystical Witcher, and his calling to rid the world of various monsters.
A good prelude to the main witcher series.
"Easily listened to with great narration"
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and have recommended it to others. Very good prose in the form of multiple short stories that feel like a twisted set of grimmer fairy tales.
"Spectacular Introduction to "The Witcher""
I absolutely love this book. It is full of rich detail and vivid imagery. I can imagine myself right alongside Geralt as he goes from one amazing adventure to the next. I don't want to give away spoilers, so I will just say that I couldn't put it down. The world is so believable, despite the high-fantasy setting. It's a world similar to our own, but with magic and an array of majestic or horrifying creatures. The world is dirty and rife with evil and corruption, but with enough glimpses of goodness and light to give you hope for the future (much like our own world).
I read this via "immersion reading". I read the Kindle version (and sometimes the paperback version) as I listened to Peter Kenny's incredible voice-over. He is a master storyteller. I loved his changing voices and the life he gave to each character on the page.
The only critique I have would be the chapter for which the book is named after. "The Last Wish" is a thrilling and action-packed chapter, especially towards the end. However, Peter Kenny spoke the dialogue of Yennefer and Geralt a little too plainly during the action sequences. There is so much happening I would have expected him to at least change his pitch a little. I read the chapter on my own without the voice-over and let my imagination do it justice.
Aside from that, I will still say that Peter Kenny did an excellent job. I will not hesitate to get an audiobook he voices in the future. I will also move on the other novels in the series, once the "Sword of Destiny" is released as an audiobook. I hope Peter Kenny is brought onboard once again.
Also, as I wrote in the Kindle review, I wholeheartedly recommend "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" game. It's the greatest game I have ever played.
"A rich world explored through vignettes"
I enjoyed the richness of the world, the sense of history, the previous world events and social changes.
I felt the narration did not distract from the story.
I found the audio a little disconcerting as the story jumps in time and location without preamble. In the book, there would be a new chapter to help you with the jump. At times I felt lost, particularly if I had taken a pause, it took me a while to figure out what was happening.
This is a great world, well described. That said, it is a little different in style from more common fantasy stories. I found the concept epic in nature, yet the scenes were more like stand alone short stories. Not a bad thing, just different.
"Amazing "
Second time I'm listening to this. I Love this series and Peter is doing an excellent job at reading it!
each story was quite engaging. i cant wait to see where this goes next. will be picking up the other books
"Amazing narration, a must if you liked the games"
At first I had trouble understanding the narration, but downloading it in high quality helped a lot!
I really like the voices the narrator makes, as always at first they are kinda weird but you get used to it so fast.
"Good story made great by Peter Kenny"
Just like with any book, and especially a collection of short stories, there will be some dull parts. Some short stories were more slow than others, and some kept me up way past bedtime.
But even the slower stories came alive thanks to Peter Kenny's great storytelling and amazing voices. Thanks to him I bought the second collection of short stories as an audiobook rather than a paper copy because I can't imagine Geralt without the voice acting of Peter Kenny.
"A Brilliant Introduction Into "The Witcher""
Thrilling, brilliant, engaging
Who's everyone's favorite character? It's Geralt, of course! Before reading the book, I was under the impression that he would just be a Batman-like stoic hero, but he's far from it. Sure, he's a badass, he knows everything about killing monsters and all that you'd expect from him, but he's also a good listener, he's considerate and not condescending, he even demonstrates a sense of humor at a few occasions!
While it is, once again, the boring answer that everyone would go to, it's definitely the voice acting. While some of the characters were a bit hard to understand (if you listen, you'll know exactly who I'm talking about), he overall did a very good job giving each one a personality, to the point where I was honestly a bit disappointed when I learned that Peter Kenny didn't voice Geralt in "The Witcher" games. He nails the character!
"Last Wish - The Beginning of The Witcher" Boring and obvious, but hey, that seems to be the theme of this review, so who cares.
Overall, I can't find much wrong with "The Last Wish" - it's just great from start to finish. Definitely a good read for anyone regardless of how familiar they are with the franchise.
"Great performance"
I played all games. This book is very nice background, as the games refer to it's events often. Very entertaining and not as predictable as I'd thought.
"Great story and awesome variety of accents"
I would like to have in Audible more books of this author. The medieval-fantasy stories take another level with him, making the characters behave contemporarily. Geralt of Rivia is a witcher but at the same time is a great person. His romance with the other character will have more to tell us in the future.
The narrator does an splendid job using not only different voices, but different accents too. I love how Geralt speaks. I had a really good time listening this audio book!
10 out of 10 for both, the author and there narrator.
"One of most underrecognized fantasy books"
Yes I would, it is one of best books i've read, Sapkowski did a perfect job creating a world with a witcher as a hero. For the first time i felt like the main hero was complete.
I don't think there's any books to compare to it, none ever focuses on main character so much and lets you meet him from every aspect.
My favourite scene was in the tavern when people tell geralt which monsters they want to be taken out, yet the geralt realizes none of what they're saying is true, and they're making it all up because they're the monsters.
Lifting the curse from knight
Must-read book.

After a memorable week, the NFL has survived its first-ever outdoor, cold weather Super Bowl. While the Broncos didn't fare well, it was a success for New York and New Jersey. With the exception of security delays getting to Metlife Stadium via the Secaucus station, it went off without a hitch. While the Super Bowl was obviously the marquee event, there were countless other events that kept the City that never sleeps up past it's normal bedtime all week. In addition to the Super Bowl parties, the week also featured a Wednesday night Rangers Islanders game at Yankee Stadium and a Saturday Knicks vs. Heat game at Madison Square Garden. Book of Mormon tickets were also a hot item this weekend on the Great White Way as were Lion King tickets. After all that jam-packed event-going, it's fair to ask if New Yorkers have anything left.
Based on the average price for Billy Joel's concert tomorrow night at Madison Square Garden, it seems like New York event goers have some post Super Bowl blues and are in need of a breather. Over the last week, the average price for Billy Joel tickets to the second show in his ongoing residency at Madison Square Garden is down 27%. At a current average price of $258, it's the cheapest of Joel's currently-scheduled show at MSG. The current average price is $30 less than Joel's first show which was a week prior. The next show on March 21st has an average price of $464. Based on this Madison Square Garden Seating chart, floor seats are now going for just over $206, which is the cheapest of any show.
While the average price for this years Super Bowl tickets ended up being the second most expensive in the last six years, at several points during the week it seemed like it might be the least expensive. Seahawks fans that purchased tickets when prices bottomed out on Tuesday got their money's worth. Overall, Hawks buyers outnumbered Denver purchasers by roughly 2-1. The most traffic on TiqIQ's Super Bowl page, however, came from New York and New Jersey. Earlier in the week, we speculated as to whether New York and New Jersey were bailing out the ticket market. While the improved weather played the biggest role in sending prices up over the weekend, the locals played a critical role in keeping New York's first Super Bowl from being remembered as the cheapest in recent history. Given their efforts, it's hard to blame them for taking a bit of a breather for Joel's Monday night's show at Madison Square Garden.

How would you find the period of y=-4sin(pi/3)x ?
-sorry, i dont know how to put the pi sybol in so I wrotwe it
-thanks for any help, J.T.
Hi !
See here : http://www.mathhelpforum.com/math-help/latex-help/ for more codes.
For your problem. The period T is defined such that f(x+T)=f(x).
So here
You know that the sine function is periodic. So it would be nice to find T such that we get this
Develop f(x+T) :
So find T such that and you're done

When I wrote 'turn yourself in' I meant that jokingly of course; what else are scare quotes for?
While I agree with Maia's repeated advice, I fail to see how the Argentine embassy would be able to help you, seen that they are obliged to abide by Swiss law. Unless you manage to slip out of Schengen unseen, my guess is that you will be registered as a visa offender either way.
Re the issue of marrying a Swiss in Switzerland vs marrying a Swiss in Argentina: as far as I understand Swiss law, the latter grants considerably fewer rights of residency to the non-Swiss partner than the former, which is probably why the OP is so intent on marrying in Switzerland.

Among reports recently released by the Conway Police Department:
•Public intoxication, Main Street.
A Conway man was arrested Friday afternoon for public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance after being accused of threatening employees of a downtown restaurant.
Police responded to JJ's Bar and Grill, located in the 1000 block of Main Street, around 3:07 p.m. While in route, police were advised the 33-year-old man left JJ's and walked toward Old Chicago.
Officers entered the restaurant and made contact with the male. Police immediately noticed an odor of intoxicants and the male's inability to keep from swaying while standing.
While speaking to police, officers observed the male reach into his pocket, retrieve an item and throw it over his shoulder. Police then picked up the suspected marijuana.
The male was then taken into custody and transported to the Faulkner County jail. Police also issued a criminal trespass warning to the male for JJ's Bar and Grill.
•Vehicle breaking or entering, Old Morrilton Highway.
A Conway man said he recently discovered his iPad to be missing from his vehicle, the last place it was seen.
The 47-year-old victim said the last time he saw the iPad was when he took his vehicle to Splash Car Wash, located in the 1500 block of the Old Morrilton Highway, on Dec. 9. The victim said it was located in a bag in the back of his vehicle.
The victim went to get the iPad around 2 p.m. Monday, and noticed it missing. No damage was found to the vehicle, and nothing else was taken, the victim said.
•Theft of property, Halter Road.
The United Parcel Service says three batteries were recently stolen from one of its trucks this weekend.
A UPS employee said the truck was last used around 8 a.m. Friday. No employees were at the UPS location, in the 900 block of Halter Road, from around 6 p.m. Friday until around 3:30 a.m. Monday. The batteries were discovered missing around 4:30 a.m.
Because of the batteries' location on the truck, the employee told police the thief or thieves had "specialized equipment," because the compartments were not broken.
Each batter was valued at $100 in the police report.
•Theft of property, Harkrider Street.
A Mount Vernon woman said her iPhone was stolen while eating with her family at New China on Sunday.
The 50-year-old victim told police she received a text while eating with her family, retrieved her phone to check the message and then placed it on the table as she continued to eat.
When leaving the table to pay, the victim left her phone, and did not realize until after paying for the meal. When she returned, the waiter told her he had not seen her phone.
The victim told police she has called numerous times to see if the phone has been turned in, but restaurant staff informed her it has not.
The phone was valued at $400 in the police report.
•Theft of property, Dave Ward Drive.
A Van Buren County Sheriff's deputy said his badge was recently stolen from his vehicle.
The 56-year-old Conway resident told police he believes the theft occurred while his truck was serviced at Walmart, located in the 3900 block of Dave Ward Drive, on Sunday.
The deputy said he has contacted the store manger, who is supposed to check security footage.

There's a lesson in this.
It's that if you build something, you'll destroy something. Also, once it's built, don't just try it out immediately, or else you'll disintegrate and leave only shadow and a small pile of ash.
Time travel is messy. Thanks for watching!
Not terrible at all
Reminds me of a certain Adam Sandler movie called "Click", though...
"Also, to all you guys claiming the movie has no ending... it does. Know that part where the movie stops and the replay button appears? That's the end. The story has an intentionally ambiguous conclusion that is meant to inspire personal interpretation and conversation. Any more traditional ending I could've included would've robbed the viewer of the opportunity to really think about the movie's message. Thanks for watching!"
To those reading this who remember "Click": was that multi-million-budgeted movie itself something substantive and original enough to deserve conversation and interpretation? How about this flash?
Nothing with Adam Sandler (with the exception of the excellent James L. Brooks movie, Spanglish) is worthy of serious conversation or interpretation. Thanks for watching!
So, people who concentrate too much on the future and forget about living in the present get vaporized in a malfunctioning time machine and get turned into a pile of radioactive ash. Truly a message for the ages. :)
Haha. Thanks for watching!
I loved it.
Everything is Smooth, The story is easy to understand and follow. people Claim there is no ending, but a longer ending would have been unnessesary since you can already understand why he headed to the past for or at least you can imagine is t very easily. Great Job
Thanks, Headshot. Glad you enjoyed the movie.
Thank man, I learned a lot of your flash ;)
Thank for your watch.

Limited edition retro…throwback Ruffles and Cheetos! Have your nostalgia sensors gone wild yet? Are you ready to go out there and find these chips RIGHT NOW so you can pretend it's…uh, whatever year these bags are meant to imitate?
I would love to tell you that year. Or anything else about these chips. The Internet seems completely devoid of information about their existence, minus this Flickr picture I found that showcases all the other retro brands I didn't find; namely, Cheetos Puffs, Rold Gold Pretzel Rods and King Size Fritos. The photo also includes Taco Doritos, but I already reviewed those.
So this news post is sadly deprived of news, beyond the fact that I can tell you they exist. I can also tell you that I expected the chips to contain identical ingredients to a regular bag of Ruffles or Cheetos. The chips looked exactly the same as modern Ruffles and Cheetos. Going off of Frito-Lay's website, the Ruffles contained the exact same and amount of ingredients as regular Ruffles.
The Cheetos are a little more interesting, however. I could taste no difference between retro and regular Cheetos, but the ingredients do appear different. Retro Cheetos use vegetable oil, while "contemporary" Cheetos use corn and/or sunflower oil. Retro Cheetos include cheddar cheese seasoning and cheddar cheese, while the regular Cheetos just have the latter. And finally, retro Cheetos list salt as the last ingredient, where salt falls in the middle of the list on regular Cheetos. So there do seem to be some differences, even if my palate is apparently not refined enough to taste them.
The back of the Cheetos bag also has Chester Cheetah goin' all Uncle Sam, and also says, "Here's to over 60 years of great flavor". So Cheetos is having an anniversary. What about the rest of the brands? Who knows, the Internet won't tell me. It is all mystery. But I figured they should be thrown up on the Internet, if only to catalog their existence.

Passbook has taken quite a long time to be full integrated into the App Store, with only a small selection of apps supporting it at launch, at first it didn't seem like something that would catch on.
However more and more apps are now starting to integrate the functionality into their apps, and now it's staring to gain some traction.
Most recently, British Airways updated their app with the new functionality, allowing users to store their boarding passes within the Passbook app.
Compatible with all devices running iOS 6.0 and above, the app now allows users to quickly bring up boarding passes at over 100 airport's worldwide.
And that's not all, as the company says they will be updating the app within the next couple of weeks to add direct links to passes from the lock screen, for now however they will only be available through the passbook app.
BA will be sending a message to all users once this feature is live, and for users running iOS 5.0 and above, they say that they will be launching another compatible app soon.

CHICAGO (AP) -- Chicago officials say 46.2 million tourists visited the city last year, a near-record.
In a statement Tuesday, Mayor Rahm Emanuel says the strong numbers show that the city's marketing efforts are paying off.
In 2012, 45 million U.S. visitors came to Chicago, up 6.2 percent from the year before. Meanwhile, international tourism climbed to 1.2 million people, up 3.2 percent from 2011.
The latest figures were just shy of the tourism record set in 2007.
Emanuel's set a goal of having 50 million visitors a year by 2020.

Today is the last day of the year. That means today is the last day to give contributions to nonprofit organizations so that the deductions count towards this year's taxes. So here are a few places you can give where I am confident your money will be used well for the Kingdom of God.
I've been on both sides of giving and I used to think if I couldn't give a big gift or give monthly it was worthless or that it was some sort of insult if I could only give $5 a month or a small one time donation. Now that I'm on the other side I can tell you we truly need both. Even $5 is not an insult, it makes us feel loved, encouraged and supported far beyond you could ever imagine. So please consider supporting some or all of these people, even if it is a very small amount; just seeing your name in our list is a great encouragement that I know many of us need.
1. Us of course, you can read about Church Plant in Manhattan and how you can help here or you can give online at GiveToRUF.org and typing in my name, "Brian Hough"
2. Jon Dunning is the RUF Campus Pastor at K-State. He is working right now to establish this new campus ministry with a great emphasis on teaching the Word of God. Jon is a great guy, he loves the Lord and handles well the need to help new believers wade into the Word of God, while also taking those who have walked with Christ longer deep into Word. Jon is in need of support for the coming year. You can give to Jon by going to GiveToRUF.org and typing in his name, "Jon Dunning." I know he would really appreciate it.
3. Shannon Johnston is a missionary with a focus towards art and the art community. She is bringing the Good News of Jesus to a people group that very few can legitimately get into. Right now she needs support so she can return to Perth, Australia where she is helping with a Church Plant and ministering to the large population of artists. You can give support and help Shannon get back to Perth by clicking here. Even if it is only a small donation, please consider encouraging her by giving.
4. Sam Kassing is working with CRU at K-State and a great guy who cares deeply to see Jesus save sinners. If you desire to support Sam or learn more about the ministry he is involved in you contact him through Facebook here.
5. Robbie Hotz grew up as a member of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Overland Park; he was in high school when I began as the Youth Pastor there. Today Robbie is serving with Young Life on their college ministry at Kansas State. If you desire to give to Robbie click here. Then select button that reads, "A Young Life Staff Member's Ministry" and type in Hotz. I know he would really appreciate any financial support you can give.
There are many more ministries and people worth supporting, I just made this quick list of people I've talked to recently and know could use the support and encouragement.
Thank you again for your prayers and support. We don't take for granted the body of Christ God has graciously given.

Not too much went right for Lakeside Friday night.
The Panthers hoped to jump out to a quick start facing Region 2-AAAAA foe Northside Warner Robins in both teams' first region game.
Lakeside called a reverse pass on the game's first play, but it was picked off by the Eagles' Marquez Moore who turned it into six points 55 yards later.
It would go downhill from there as the Eagles romped to a 56-0 victory.
"We repped it all week long," said Panthers head coach Jarrett Troxler of the first pass. "It's one of those gambles, if we hit it, we're in the ballgame, and it went the other way for us."
The Eagles' (4-0, 1-0 region) defense was far from done, however, as Darius Holmes picked off a Tanner Brassell pass and returned it 43 yards for a touchdown with 2:37 left in the first quarter and then took one back 25 yards off Tom Proctor, extending the lead to 35-0.
"We were disappointed with our defensive performance last time we played," said Eagles head coach Kevin Kinsler. "We take pride in our defense and we wanted to set the tone."
The Eagles' defense also sacked Brassell and recovered a fumble at the Panthers' 10-yard line, turning it into a Keshun Hill five-yard touchdown run and bringing the score to 42-0 with 4:54 left in the half.
"You throw the three pick-six and fumble inside the five against Northside Warner Robins, you ain't got a chance, much less anybody else," Troxler said.
The Panthers had a spark of life near the end of the first half, starting at their own 20 with 4:52 to go.
They got to the Eagles'2-yard line with under 10 seconds to play, but Josh Jones was stopped on a run, and with no timeouts, the clock ran out.
The Panthers did a good job defensively in the first half, but by game's end they had allowed 202 rushing yards as the Eagles did not attempt a pass after halftime.
The Eagles tacked on two third-quarter touchdowns before going to their bench.
"We might have just played the state champions," Troxler said.

John Doe #1 to John Travolta in Bizarre, Rambling Statement: Be Well!by Free Britney at . Comments
The anonymous plaintiff in the John Travolta sexual battery lawsuit has released a bizarre, rambling statement to weigh in on the scandalous case.
In it, the masseur, who alleges Travolta fondled him and offered sexual favors during a massage gone wrong, wishes the actor good health and happiness.
Mostly, he criticizes the media for its handling of this subject and urges the public to let the courts, not celebrity gossip, make the final judgment.
In addition to lamenting the "circus" surrounding the explosive allegations he personally made, Travolta's accuser appears to reference claims made by the actor's attorney about alleged evidence that disproves his claim.
He also mentions the second accuser, also a masseur, who joined the lawsuit with allegations of similar sexual misconduct by Travolta.
Excerpts from John Doe's statement appear below:
"As the unidentified masseur in the John Travolta case I have an opinion that I wanted to share."
"I don't think anyone should form any opinion about Mr. Travolta, his family, his council, myself, [the second accuser], and our counsel. I would urge everyone to understand that guilt or innocence in our Justice System is decided by our court system.""Too often these matters are decided by swaying public opinion through elements that would never be considered in an actual court case."
"For instance, a photograph, a restaurant receipt, testimony, and other things that may or may not constitute proof have strict guidelines that must be followed. A fine example is the amazing number of guilty people that escape their crimes due to the mishandling of evidence. Is it disappointing, of course it is, but it is a price we must pay in order to have a justice system that runs in a constitutional manner."
"Despite the circus that celebrity matters seem to spiral into, we should grant all parties involved a wait-and-see attitude, and wait for either the official decision of a judge and jury, or the possibility of a dignified discussion between people who are not pit bulls, or aces, or anything, but are actually officers of the court (lawyers) who have sworn an oath to protect the justice system from losing its blind lady of justice with scales and replacing her with the days of Salem Witch Hunts."
"Even though Mr. Travolta and his counsel are on opposing sides in this matter, I do wish them good health, happiness, and want them to be judged with absolute fairness as our great nation affords all citizens regardless of their wealth or station."

Mothers have been charged to be role models to their children as they guide, monitor and counsel them in all areas of life.
The Guidance and Counsellor of Aquinas College, Akure, Mrs Julianna Ojukwu, gave the charge in an interview with journalists at the weekend in her office.
Ojukwu insisted that parents, particularly mothers should not leave the training of children to their teachers.
Guiding, monitoring and counselling children at a tender age, she said will shape their lives for a better future.
Ojukwu added that as a counsellor in a school, she noticed that a lot of children can do better if they were guided rightly.
Counselling, she said, is very important to young ones because they are exposed to a lot of things including what they read, watch and access on the internet which can influence them.
"Counselling can go a long way in shaping people's lives, especially children if they are directed rightly at an early age. A lot of children and even adults would not have been the bad people they are today if they had been rightly counselled," she explained.
She tasked counsellors in various schools to ensure proper counselling of their students "because it is an important aspect of development that would help children in all aspects of life.''
Mothers have been charged to be role models to their children as they guide, monitor and counsel them in all areas of life.

Alabama Metadata Portal
Entry ID: GSALA_Alabama_Maps
Abstract: The Alabama Metadata Portal is being developed through a collaborative
effort of the Geological Survey of Alabama (GSA) and the Alabama Emergency
Management Agency (AEMA) . AEMA provided funding to GSA to develop and
implement this prototype internet-based geospatial data portal for the search,
discovery, and, as appropriate, distribution of Alabama geospatial data.
Various state and local ... government entities in Alabama are making
substantial investments in the collection, management, and use of geospatial
data. AEMA and GSA are working collaboratively to develop this geospatial data
portal which, when fully implemented, will allow cooperators and users to
publish information about available geospatial data for Alabama and surrounding
areas, as well to search for, discover, and access geospatial data.
This Alabama Metadata Portal will facilitate the ability of governmental
organizations (and others who choose to participate) to share their geospatial
resources and to find and access geospatial data that have been developed or
compiled by others.

Find information about Elizabethtown College course registration, and registering for elective seminars and lectures. As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. You may be surprised that you can enroll for a full-time course load, without having to attend any 8am classes at all. Finally, check with the admissions office for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Elizabethtown College class registration information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Elizabethtown College.
Research demonstrates that college freshman taking a full courseload go on to complete their degrees at a much higher rate than those students who study part-time. When choosing a major, plan ahead and be sure that you are picking courses that will meet transfer requirements of other colleges and universities later on. Further, by choosing your major early, you may be able to take some required core classes in a community college, saving both time and tuition fees.
Look at all the schools in your state first, as in-state tuition may be lower for state residents. The course catalog will outline which classes are required for a particular major, and what minimum GPA you'll need to maintain your class standing. Please contact the academic advising staff at the school you are interested in applying to about their specific course registration guidelines. Beyond degree requirements such as Elizabethtown College course registration, you may consider Rich Mountain Community College academic awards for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

ToyWatch is brand from Italy that has earned a faithful following thanks to famous distributors like Neiman Marcus, Barney's and Saks Fifth Avenue. What the brand does is take inspiration from popular watches and recreates them so that their appeal is retained and they come with a smaller price tag.
This could be the perfect recessionista dream as the prices are lower that $200. And from what we hear, the dream only gets better. Looks like ToyWatch wants to get some more customers because the brand has decided to go on a great sale on January 20th, 2009 at the Gilt Groupe. We hear that the prices will be dramatically reduced.
Good news for sure in times of the economic crisis. Also to watch ou for is the ToyWatch list if Famous Wrists that includes well-known names happy with their ToyWatch timepieces. So all you have to do is register yourself (a quick process that is free too) with Gilt to participate in the sale. By the way, did we tell you ToyWatches are makde from lightweight plastic.

The National Audit Office has embarked on a study of how central and local government communicate. They will not be short of material.
Communication from Whitehall and a smattering of other government outposts takes several forms. The most familiar and least endearing is what the Americans call the bully pulpit of ministerial office. The term bully had a less aggressive meaning when the expression was first coined by president Theodore Roosevelt. It now wonderfully suits the style of communication deployed by communities secretary Eric Pickles.
Under the Pickles regime of "guided localism" the secretary of state feels able to interfere in every aspect of council decision-making. Earlier this week Pickles attacked councils planning a tax rise below the level that triggers a referendum of "treating the electorate with contempt". He added: "Councillors have a moral duty to sign up to keep down the cost of living. Anything less is a kick in the teeth to hardworking, decent taxpayers."
While that is arguably no more than political knockabout, Pickles made a more cynical intervention a few days earlier as concern grew in local government about how to implement the 10% cut in council tax benefit they have been instructed to deliver. As Taunton Deane council starkly put it: "In the end we will have to decide … which vulnerable group we support the least."
Pickles claimed discussion by some councils of whether there should be changes to the single person discount amounted to "a well-orchestrated campaign being run by the Labour party to target the elderly, single mothers and the most vulnerable".
For most councils what matters is the more practical and business-like contact between senior council managers and senior civil servants that oil the decision-making wheels, such as the negotiations that prepared the ground for the city deal announced this week between Liverpool and the Department for Communities and Local Government (CLG). With ministers desperate for anything that will deliver growth, big councils such as Leeds and Manchester generally get reasonable access to senior officials across Whitehall in departments such as Work and Pensions, Transport and Business, Innovation and Skills, as well as the Treasury.
Beyond this there is the morass of low-level data requests and financial returns that plague middle managers across local government. This government has cut back on such requirements but they are still something of an administrative plague.
At a national level, communications with the Local Government Association (LGA) have a decidedly mixed record. A central weakness in the LGA's position is its lack of clout beyond CLG. It simply does not have the combination of access and credibility to secure major policy changes.
After the general election in 2010, LGA Conservatives hoped that having Tories from Bradford – Baroness Eaton and Pickles – running both the LGA and DCLG would lead to close co-operation and a significant devolution of power to local government.
Although they kept up a good front of public unity, Eaton felt badly let down. A key objective for Carolyn Downs, the recently appointed LGA chief executive, must be to greatly increase the LGA's influence in the senior ranks of government.
But worse than any of this is when they try to be sincere and supportive. Often they mean what they say: Nick Clegg really does want to give councils more power; cities minister Greg Clark speaks with passion on his brief. But the reality of the policies often bears only a passing resemblance to the rhetoric.
The NAO study looks likely to focus in the more prosaic end of communications between local and central government. But it would be doing both sides a service by tracking how the realities of life for councils, from economic growth to child protection and housing, feed into government decision-making.
Councils offer government the opportunity to take the pulse on virtually every tough issue: welfare reform, gang culture and extremism, to name but three in the news this week. Developing effective ways for Whitehall departments to engage with arguments and evidence from councillors and officers who are close to the realities of political decisions would greatly enhance the quality of policy-making.

The 49ers went to their top wideout in the Super Bowl to end 2013 and came up with an incompletion. In Sunday's NFC Championship game, Kaepernick lofted a deep ball to Crabtree once more on the right side of the field and had the ball intercepted to end San Francisco's comeback bid against the Seattle Seahawks.
Seattle's All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman tipped the ball into the air and Seahawks linebacker Malcolm Smith was right there to haul in the interception. It was Kaepernick's third turnover of the fourth quarter.
Seattle took three kneel-downs and won 23-17 to advance to Super Bowl XLVIII.
"I didn't play good enough to win," said Kaepernick, who engineered most of the 49ers offense in the first three quarters of play. "I turned the ball over three times. I cost us that game."
Kaepernick was stripped from behind to start the fourth quarter and was also intercepted by Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor.
The 49ers, however, did not point the blame at their quarterback, who finished the game with 153 passing yards and 130 rushing yards against a tough Seattle defense.
"We win as a team, we lose as a team," defensive co-captain
Kaepernick helped San Francisco stay in the lead for three quarters of play, but his final pass attempt of the night was sealed Seattle's victory.
Crabtree had one-on-one coverage against Sherman on the backside of the formation and Kaeprnick determined that was where he wanted to throw before the snap. Crabtree ran a double-move on Sherman and Kaepernick lamented not throwing the ball in the back of the end zone where only his receiver could make the play.
"I had a one-on-one matchup with 'Crab,'" Kaepernick said of the play. "I'll take that any time."
The 49ers were in position for a go-ahead touchdown with less than a minute left in the game at the time of Kaepernick's ill-fated 24th pass attempt of the night. Once Seattle kicked a field to take a 6-point advantage, the stage was set for late-game heroics. It seemed like it could happen for the 49ers after the offense was able to convert a 4th-and-2 with a check-down, roll-out pass to
The 49ers had the matchup they wanted with Crabtree, but ultimately not the final result.
"Losing is always hard," said Crabtree, who caught four passes for 52 yards. "I tried to do what I could."
San Francisco's locker room was all but silent after the game. It was quite the contrast from how the team looked in the first quarter.
It mostly happened when Kaepernick picked up 58 yards on an impressive run that saw the 49ers quarterback reach Seattle's 10-yard line. It eventually help the 49ers build a 10-0 advantage early after a 1-yard
The long-legged scamper was the longest run of Kaepernick's three-year career and even better, the longest postseason run by a quarterback in NFL history according to Elias Sports Bureau.
Kaepernick, however, didn't want to go over the run after the loss. The turnovers in the second half were more on his mind.
"You turn the ball over, you don't give your team opportunities to score," the 49ers quarterback said.
Kaepernick was hard on himself and took the loss on his broad shoulders. It was his first ever road playoff loss, too.
His coach, on the other hand, was positive about the team's all-around performance.
"Not many people get to be in this arena," Jim Harbaugh said. "I thought our guys showed tremendous fight... Congratulations to Seattle, they made the big plays."

2013 NIS America Press Reunion Event: "Black Rock Shooter Is Still in Development"
On February 21st, NIS America (NISA) held their annual Press Reunion event in San Francisco. For NIS themselves, 2013 marks two important milestones for the company: NIS will be celebrating their twentieth anniversary come July while one of their flagship series, Disgaea will be celebrating its tenth anniversary. Of course, not to be overshadowed by Sony's PlayStation 4 announcement from the previous day, NIS President Souhei Niikawa was on hand at the event to not only pledge support for the system but to also mention that NIS has begun to develop for it as well.
This year though, NIS America will still be bringing a good number of games to Sony's PlayStation 3 so fans will still have a number of things to look forward to. One game that was mentioned in development last year, The Witch and The Hundred Knights, is nearing completion but had no footage ready to show at the event. For those who were wondering, The Witch and The Hundred Knights will also have a Limited Edition version for release worldwide, according to President Niikawa.
Previously mentioned by NIS America at their panel at Anime Expo, Character Chowdown, will be releasing a Disgaea character pack this spring. Available for iOS, Character Chowdown is a simple mobile app made to help players learn Japanese characters with purchasable packs for both kana and kanji while katakana is free. Not only will the Disgaea pack be available to play as Laharl or Etna, but the pack will also allow players to use their own music from their devices in the background.
This year, NIS America have several games lined up for release this year for the PlayStation 3. One game is definitely to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the beloved Disgaea series, which is Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness. A direct sequel to Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, D2 will feature fan favorites Laharl, Flonne and Etna as playable characters as well as nods to the series as a whole. Due to the time-consuming nature of Disgaea games, D2 will feature many streamlined elements to allow both new and old players a chance to enjoy the game at their leisure. Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness will be available in the fall of this year.
Another game, which was announced exclusively at the event was The Guided Fate Paradox, which is the spiritual successor to the Zettai Hero Project, a rogue-like RPG that was released on the Sony's first handheld the PlayStation Portable (PSP). Guided Fate Paradox will be released exclusively on the PlayStation 3 in the fall. With artwork done by Noizi Ito, the character designer of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Guided Fate Paradox features full customization of weapons, armor, items and other things, random 3D generated dungeons, special super attacks for weapons/items and much more. Despite the nature of the game being a rogue-like, it will be a bit more forgiving as you can retain certain items but only when in 'Burst Mode'. When asked if Guided Fate Paradox will feature Dengeki cameos that were available in Japan, we were told that they are looking into it but really do want to include the cameos as well.
The final game announced at the event is Time and Eternity, which is known as Toki to Towa in Japan. Created by both Imageepoch and Namco Bandai, Time and Eternity is an RPG that features 2D hand drawn characters over 3D generated backgrounds to give the presentation of playing an 'anime' as all actions are controlled in real-time. Leveling up either of the characters Toki or Towa will automatically switch to the other, though there is an item that will allow one to switch as well; the protagonist's body will inhabit the body of a small dragon when traveling within the game.

Will Christ Return On May 21, 2011?Posted by PsiCop in Christianity, Fuzzy Thinking, General, Metaphysics, Religion
Harold Camping, a presumed Bible scholar who runs a network of Christian radio stations, claims he knows when the Second Coming of Christ will take place: May 21, 2011. He and his ministry are so confident in that prediction that they've taken out bench advertisements around the country to warn people of it. Lauri Lebo at Religion Dispatches has the story (WebCite cached article):
A friend snapped this photo on the way to work in Colorado Springs:
Apparently, these pictures have been popping up around the country, with sightings from Erie to Waco to the Bay Area.
Lebo points out that Camping's past predictions have not panned out too well:
This is not the first time Camping has predicted Judgment Day:
On Sept. 6, 1994, dozens of Camping's believers gathered inside Alameda's Veterans Memorial Building to await the return of Christ, an event Camping had promised for two years. Followers dressed children in their Sunday best and held Bibles open-faced toward heaven.
But the world did not end. Camping allowed that he may have made a mathematical error.
Camping's ministry's Web site also proudly announces the May 2011 date (cached), and he appears to want to beat the New Agers and their "Mayan prophecy 2012 doomsday" at their own game:
We are living at a time when mankind seems to sense that the end of all things is very near. Just about everyone has a theory as to how the world is threatened and when that end might come. The media and the Internet are full of doomsday speculations concerning the New Age "Mayan Calendar" and the year 2012.
The crap about the Mayans predicting the end of the universe in December of 2012 is complete bullshit, as I've already blogged. The Mayans themselves couldn't even predict the coming collapse of their own civilization, which happened around 900 CE, so one can hardly expect them to have been any more accurate about the end of the universe.
Camping and his followers claim he's some sort of Biblical scholar, however, he — and they — appear not to have read this important verse, concerning the coming of the Son of Man:
But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. (Matthew 24:36)
Thus, the Second Coming cannot be predicted. Anyone who says s/he knows "the day" or "the hour" it will happen, can only be lying, because only "the Father" knows when it is. Jesus admits even he does not know when it will be! It also means the name of Camping's Web site — "We Can Know" — runs contrary to scripture.
Not only is this not the first failed prediction Camping has made, the history of Christianity is littered with past failed predictions of when "the End" was supposed to have come — but didn't. James "the Amazing" Randi compiled a list of some of these, and they comprise Appendix 3 (cached) of his Encyclopedia of Claims, Frauds, and Hoaxes of the Occult and Supernatural (which is available online for free). "End of the world" predictions are common and apparently easy to rationalize away when they fail. My guess is that, on May 22, 2011, Harold Camping will be rationalizing away the failure of his Jesus to show up and vacuum the Christians off the surface of the planet.
Update 1: I've set up a special page on my blog, counting down to Camping's predicted Rapture and Armageddon. Just so everyone is prepared … to laugh at Camping's idiocy, when they fail to come to pass as he predicts.
Update 2: I've posted a static page on my blog explaining — in terms of scripture itself — why all "Bible prophecies" are baloney. Have a look, if you're interested.
Update 3: Camping's followers are now trolling the country, trying to stir up apocalypticism, as part of their "Project Caravan."
Update 4: The Rapture is now less than a week away. I'll bet you can't wait!
Update 5: As one would expect, non-Campingite Christians are angling away from Family Radio and their Rapture prediction. Unfortunately for them, they can't do that; such predictions have been part of Christianity since its inception, Jesus himself made some of them!

Richie McCaw backs 'hugely competitive' Brian O'Driscoll to be at heart of Irish effort
All Black veteran hands back William Webb Ellis trophy to IRB at the Aviva Stadium
New Zealand's Richie McCaw in action against England in last weekend's game at Twickenham.
The question veteran sports people must grapple with arrived at Richie McCaw's door once again in Dublin last night. This time the issue of time was phrased in a Brian O'Driscoll context. The comments of a television pundit, trying to convince the public that O'Driscoll has overstayed his welcome in a green jersey was put to the All Black captain.
"I have a huge amount of respect and admiration for the way he plays. He has always been hugely competitive, which is what you expect from top players around the world, and I have enjoyed quite a few occasions playing against him. I'm sure he will be out there on Sunday. I know he is a classy player and he will use his experience."
With Pandora's box opened, the matter could simply not end there. Richie, should a player decide when to walk away or should the coach intervene?
"I think there is no reason guys my age [32]or even a bit older can't play well. It comes down to your absolute desire to perform. When you are younger you do it easily but as time goes on that willingness to go to those dark places mentally and on the training pitch – if you can't do that properly your form is going to follow."
Temporarily replaced
O'Driscoll's reaction to being temporarily replaced last Saturday revealed his enduring mental strength and desire. "I'm sure players know deep down when that time comes," McCaw continued. "Sometimes they might need to be told but probably when you are told you know anyway."
McCaw, of course, took an enforced sabbatical for six months this year to allow his battered body heal up after 11 years and what is now a 123 Test match innings. "I just think for myself, I still get a huge thrill out of it and still feel I can play better and I'm willing to go and train as hard as I can. I think when you are willing to do that there is no reason why you can't go out and perform. As I say, as soon as those thoughts of 'Oh, today I don't want to' that's probably the time to go."
Not even the loss of Dan Carter – a serious crisis during the 2011 World Cup – makes them significantly weaker anymore. "We're going to have to (cope), aren't we? Yeah, it is disappointing for Dan to come up short with injury but we have done it before so we will just have to do it again," said McCaw.
Done it before
They certainly have done it before with Aaron Cruden and Beauden Barrett both maturing into world-class outhalves in 2013.
McCaw was on World Cup duty last night, handing back the William Webb Ellis trophy back to the IRB at the Aviva Stadium.
"You got to be careful," said McCaw of the All Blacks being on the cusp of a perfect year. Everyone knows what is at stake . . . but for a lot of us who have been around for a while we know it's the game when you haven't performed is something to do with the mindset and attitude."
England caught them at the tail end of 2012 but since then 13 other teams have tried and failed. "Twelve months on the boys are in pretty good shape and I know myself I am pretty determined not to allow that happen again this Sunday."
Johannesburg couldn't break them, nor could England on the return to Twickenham last Saturday. But McCaw was generous last night, noting the performance in the second Test in June 2012 when a Carter drop goal kept their near flawless [10-10 draw in 1973] record against Ireland intact.
He brushed over the 60-0 result that occurred seven days later. "We expect Ireland to turn up and play particularly well and we got to do the same."
Ever think about the fact Ireland have never beaten New Zealand? "Not really because that's not going to help us."

The day was hot and cloudless. Some of those waiting to welcome and honor SSGT Andrew Harvell home for the last time had arrived hours earlier.
Some turned faces to a cool wind off the ocean.
No one complained.
The crowd along the flight line, made up of dozens of members of the Patriot Guard Riders and members of the surrounding community, watched as the angel flight touched down and taxied to a stop directly in front of the control tower for the Los Angeles Army Air Field at Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base. Numerous large American flags were held proudly.
Also in formation were members of local law enforcement agencies — Los Alamitos and Cypress and Santa Ana Police, and Orange County Sheriff's deputies. At the east end of the formation were representatives from the Orange County Fire Authority in front of trucks and a huge American flag.
An Air Force color guard stood by.
Six Air Force pall bearers waited near a hearse, along with SSGT Harvell's family.
SSGT Harvell's brother, SSgt. Sean Harvell, accompanied the body on its final flight.
None of the family members spoke directly to the media. However, a spokesperson provided two statements.
The first, from SSGT Harvell's mother, repeated a line from a children's book that had become a family byword: "I'll like you forever, I'll love you for always."
The second, from SSGT Harvell's widow, Krista, said simply that he left a legacy in his love of country, career and his two young sons, Hunter, 3, and Ethan, 5 months.
The door on the near side of the angel flight opened. Two crew members spent several minutes setting up a bier to receive the coffin.
The entire assembly snapped to attention as the coffin emerged.
An Air Force officer escorted family members across the empty tarmac.
After an interval, the Air Force pall bearers marched over, hefted the coffin and began the slow sad march to the hearse, trailed by the family members.
The officer in charge hailed SSGT Harvell as a hero, loud enough to be heard by members of the media kept well away on the west end of the formation. He recited the Twenty-Third Psalm as the pall bearers marched, ending as they carefully slid the coffin into the hearse.
Those assembled were dismissed.
The hearse was escorted off the base by dozens of Patriot Guard Riders and members of local law enforcement.
SSGT Harvell will be buried with military honors on Saturday, September 10, at Los Angeles National Cemetery, 950 Sepulveda Blvd., Los Angeles.
At the request of Councilwoman Gerri Graham-Mejia, Los Alamitos Mayor Kenneth Stephens closed Monday night's regular meeting of the Los Alamitos City Council in honor of SSGT Harvell.

Circumstances of death
SSGT Andrew Harvell was among 30 people killed when their Chinook helicopter was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade fired by Taliban insurgents as the troops were being transported to support an ongoing battle in eastern Wardak province, near the capital city of Kabul, Afghanistan.
SSGT Harvell was part of a team that had just helped to rescue a unit of Army Rangers.
As a combat controller, SSGT Harvell coordinated air support with troops on the ground in hostile situations.
SSGT Harvell was based at Fort Bragg's Pope Field, assigned to the 24th Special Tactics Squadron, but his hometown was Long Beach.
Two days later, U.S. Air Force F-16s attacked and destroyed those responsible for downing the helicopter.
Statement by Long Beach mayor
Long Beach Mayor Bob Foster released the following statement:
Staff Sergeant Andrew W. Harvell from Long Beach was among the servicemen who died on August 6, 2011 in Afghanistan.
In remembrance of fallen Staff Sergeant Harvell, City facilities that are open today are authorized to fly the American flag at half staff.
"My deepest sympathies go out to the family and friends of Staff Sergeant Andrew W. Harvell. On behalf of the City of Long Beach, we are sending our thoughts and prayers to them during this time of great sadness," said Mayor Bob Foster.

Although I made these yesterday, they seem like the perfect healthy treat for a lazy Sunday morning. Scones are one of my favorite foods for breakfast because the base can be made using almond or oat flour and the ingredients added in for the scone flavor can change, depending on what you're craving or have left over in the kitchen. I had some chopped pecans in the fridge left over from Thanksgiving that ended up being the perfect quantity for the pecan scones. I also love blueberries and walnuts together and always have them on hand, therefore decided to split this recipe in half to make a little of each.
Both the pecan scones and the blueberry walnut scones are so delicious! They can easily be stored away for a quick on the run breakfast since they are high in fiber, protein, omega 3's and choc-full of antioxidants with the nuts, berries and hemp seeds!
Dry Ingredients
1 1/2 c almond flour
1 1/2 c oats (*use gluten free to make these completely gluten free)
1 c hemp seeds
2 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 c coconut sugar
1/8 tsp sea salt
Wet Ingredients
1/2 c coconut oil (liquefied)
1/4 c unsweetened almond milk
1/4 c pure maple
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Add ins
3/4c chopped walnuts
3/4 cup frozen blueberries
3/4 cup chopped pecans
How to: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients. In another bowl mix together all wet ingredients (melt down coconut if it's not already in liquid form) . Slowly add wet ingredient mixture to the dry ingredient mixture. Stir until you have a doughy mixture. Add more yummy stuff such as blueberries, walnuts and pecans! (Your choice) Can also add cacao nibs, currants, cranberries, almonds, goji... possibilities are endless!
Scoop out and make into the scone size that you want, placing them onto a greased or parchment lined cookie sheet and bake for 17 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before enjoying!

DC United: A Successful Season On and Off the Field
DC United's season may be over, but the excitement of this year's success that took them to the Eastern Conference Finals still resounds throughout the DC area. But what many fans don't realize is that it's not just their performance on the field that has made this a winning season. The organization's contributions off the pitch and within the community substantiate them as genuine leaders, both in the league and the city.
These contributions are an outcome of United for D.C., a 501c3 foundation started in 2002 with a mission to "champion educational, health, and recreational programs and events that serve disadvantaged youth of greater Washington, DC." Senior Vice President of Marketing Communications and United for D.C. Board Member Doug Hicks explained that the establishment of the foundation was a response to requests from parents in Ward 8. They wanted their children, many of them latchkey kids, to be involved in after school activities and noted the lack of opportunities in the neighborhood at that time for their kids to play soccer.
Determined to fill that void, the Foundation created the United Soccer Club, its first and now biggest initiative. Currently serving 600 kids at 14 locations around the city three times a week, the program introduces youth in underprivileged communities to the sport of soccer. But it's not just about mastering the footwork and scoring goals. Along with the skills to play, kids also learn about teamwork, responsibility, and other character-building essentials. And the program comes with great rewards. In mid-November, United Soccer Club participants got to showcase their skills in front of their family and several D.C. United players in a tournament on the RFK Stadium Training Field. Along with the chance to play on the DC United's turf, the "Fall Fest" featured team standouts Perry Kitchen and Ethan White, access to player autographs, D.C. United mascot Talon, carnival games, music, and other treats to celebrate the end of the 12-week session.
But soccer isn't the only way that United for D.C. serves local kids. With the formation of the Foundation, DC United developed other programs that support the community beyond the sport. Among them is United Reads, which promotes child literacy through partnerships with neighboring elementary schools and local health care centers. DC United players, coaches, staff, and volunteers regularly take part in assemblies, activities, and in-class visits at six elementary schools in Washington, DC, including Payne Elementary located here on Capitol Hill. Emphasizing the importance of reading and staying healthy, United Reads donates over 10,000 books that benefit more than 1,500 students during the school year.
The largest programs might focus on kids, but DC United also serves other members of the community through United Builds. Partnering with a variety of non-profits, this initiative helps feed the homeless, provide winter coats, and fulfill other needs of those who require assistance.
And then there is the program that simply offers disadvantaged youth and families a good time. Kicks for Kids provides a game-day experience that includes tickets in a lower-level section of the stadium, food and drink vouchers, DC United swag to take home, even funding for transportation to get to and from the game. Over 7,000 fans get to enjoy this special experience that is funded by donations from local companies, private foundations, organizations, and individuals.
The donations are a result of fundraising efforts by United for D.C. In fact, they raise all of the money that supports their programs on their own. And they exceed all of the other teams in Major League Soccer in their community offerings. "The DC United is the only team in the market that provides all of the resources, financial and others, to run programming like this," says Hicks.
When Hicks talks about other resources, he includes the DC United team members. Players are highly involved in the United for D.C. programs, helping with everything from instructing kids in soccer to reading with students in classrooms to helping out with coat drives and other fundraisers that keep the programs running. And for the kids, getting to see and interact with their local sports heroes, builds excitement and encourages them to establish and strive for goals -- on the field, at school, and in life.
The DC United may not have advanced beyond the Eastern Conference Finals, but Hicks summed up the season best a couple of days before that last match. "Whether or not we win on Sunday, it's been a successful year…on the field and off."

Buffalograss has been around for millions of years in North America, ranging from eastern Arizona to northern Mexico and through the Great Plains States.
Because of its extreme drought tolerance, turf researchers turned to Buffalograss in the 1980's. While there first generation selections were touted as "saviors of our environment," they proved to be weak in both density and color. Plantings of theses varieties performed even worse in California's Mediterranean climate, with very poor germination, establishment and dormancy periods of up to six months. Such experiences gave Buffalograss a bad rap in the landscape industry for a while, but these grasses were the forerunners of varieties that would be much better.
In late 2003, 'UC Verde'® Buffalograss was introduced by the University of California, bred specifically for most of California and the low desert valleys, including Tucson in Arizona. This cultivar was the result of years of research at UC Davis and UC Riverside
Sustainable Features Include:
UC Verde® is the ONLY buffalograss that was bred in California for California's unique climate, making it an ideal and sustainable lawn substitute.
UC Verde® requires as little as a fourth of the amount of water as do traditional turf grasses, leading to a savings of as much as 75%of the volume of water that is applied to other types of turf. UC Verde® Buffalograss is eligible for water rebates in many cities; check with your local city officials or water board to see if you qualify.
UC Verde® is an excellent turf grass choice for pollen-reduced landscapes. This vegetative selection is a female sterile plant, does not produce seed, and is nearly pollen-free as compared with other turf grasses. The American Lung Association recommends plants which have pollen rating of 6.0 or less; using the OPALS/TM scale UC Verde® is rated just over 1.0.
UC Verde® has a slow vertical growth habit, peaking at 4″ to 6″ tall. There is no set mowing schedule for this cultivar, and it is highly adaptable in terms of achieving the desired look. For a manicured turf, mow once every two to three weeks; for a more natural, meadow-type look, mow much less. It is recommended that the lawn or meadow be mowed at least once per year to maintain vigor.
Native buffalograss from the North American plains is extremely tough, and these attributes are very much present in UC Verde® resulting in little or no chemical needs. Traditional bluegrass and fescue lawns require significant applications of chemical insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides for the control of insects, disease, and weeds. In addition to very strong disease and insect resistance, UC Verde® Buffalograss was bred to be dense in habit, making it difficult for weeds to become established.

Wright Stays for Another Month
Highly rated Addicks youngster Josh Wright has had his loan with Barnet extended for a further month.

Doris Has Made A Good Impression On Blues Boss
Birmingham manager Lee Clark has been watching Arbroath striker Steven Doris while on trial at St Andrews and the boss is impressed with what he has seen.
Doris has 11 goals to his name so far this season, scored in the Scottish second division including a goal against Celtic in the Scottish Cup that earned his side a 1-1 draw at Parkhead.
Now Clark is ready to go on to the next stage with the 24 year old and hopefully some sort of deal could be done.
Speaking to the Daily Record, Clark said: 'We've been impressed by Steven.
'In technical terms he has come down and shown us what he did against Celtic and he was very impressive that day.'
