Hope College will welcome back the legendary comedy troupe, The Second City, for one performance on Friday, Oct. 19, at 7:30 p.m. at the Knickerbocker Theatre.
The Chicago-based group will perform some of the best sketches, songs, and improvisations from The Second City's 45-plus-year history in the new production, "One Nation, Under Blog."
Founded in 1959, The Second City has become the premier training ground for the comedy world's best and brightest. The troupe's alumni list reads like a who's who of American comedy, and includes Mike Nichols, Elaine May, Alan Arkin, Joan Rivers, Robert Klein, Peter Boyle, Harold Ramis, John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner, George Wendt, Martin Short, John Candy, Bonnie Hunt, Tim Meadows, Chris Farley, Mike Myers, Tina Fey, Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert, Julia Louise-Dreyfus, Horatio Sanz, Ryan Stiles, and countless others.
The troupe's performances not only offer audiences a chance to see comedy stars in the making, but also the opportunity to see absolutely hilarious satire and cutting-edge improvisation. The television show "Saturday Night Live" was created with members of The Second City, and a performance by the group features similar topics and skits. If your parents asked you not to speak about it at the dinner table, chances are it will be made fun of in an evening with The Second City.
The Second City's 2002 and 2006 appearances at the Knickerbocker Theatre sold out, so those interested in attending are encouraged to buy tickets soon. More than half of the tickets available for the show are already sold. Tickets are $17 for regular admission and $12 for senior citizens, and may be obtained at the ticket office in the college's DeVos Fieldhouse. The ticket office is open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and can be called at (616) 395-7890.

Body found in rubble after Kansas City explosion, may be last missing person
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. -- The mayor of Kansas City says search crews have found a body in the rubble of a Kansas City restaurant destroyed by an explosion.
Mayor Sly James did not say whether the person was a man or a woman.
Authorities have been looking for a woman who worked at JJ's restaurant and was reported missing after the Tuesday evening blast. They previously said she was the only person still unaccounted for following the explosion and fire.
But James said Wednesday morning at a news conference that authorities can't be sure that every person who may have been at the restaurant has been accounted for.
He says 15 people were injured in the blast and fire. Six are still hospitalized, and nine have been released.

Fares better than Romney among independents
Steve Watson
January 10, 2012
A new poll indicates that GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul is statistically tied with Obama in a hypothetical head to head, making him the only Republican candidate other than Mitt Romney to be in such a position.
The poll, conducted by CBS News, has Paul at 45 percent and Obama at 46 percent, with the poll's margin of error of plus or minus 2.8 percentage points.
Out of all the other candidates, only Mitt Romney challenges Obama within the margin of error. Romney scored 47 percent to Obama's 45 percent.
Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry, and Jon Huntsman are all defeated by Obama in the poll beyond or well beyond the error margin.
Obama leads Gingrich, 49 percent to 41 percent; Huntsman, 48 percent to 41 percent; Perry, 49 percent to 42 percent; and Santorum, R-Pa., 47 percent to 43 percent.
In addition, Ron Paul has a 7 point lead over over Obama among independents, with 47 percent to 40 percent, while Romney has a lesser 6 point lead among independents, 45 percent to 39 percent.
Obama wins the independent vote when pitted against all the other GOP competitors.
Ron Paul also fares marginally better than Mitt Romney against Obama where Democrat voters are concerned.
The poll once again demonstrates that Ron Paul is the most electable GOP candidate in that, unlike every other candidate, he can tap into more diverse voting groups, as well as maintaining a Republican base, and defeat Obama come the general election in November.
"We've called this contest a two-man race between Ron Paul and Mitt Romney, and this poll is further proof of that." noted Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton."
It also demonstrates Ron Paul's support among independents, an important voting segment within which our candidate is strong," Benton added.
The full data for the CBS News poll can be viewed here.

In an interview with Fox News Sunday, Paul spoke modestly of his chances, commenting that for his campaign a good goal would be to secure a good speaking spot at this year's Republican National Convention.
"If we don't pull it off and we're not in first place, yes, that would be a good goal and people ask me why I run," Paul told Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace when he was asked how he hopes his presidential bid will influence the GOP in general. "I run to win and I have won a lot, but we also want to help direct the party and country in a certain way. So, that would be a very, very positive strategy to influence the party." Paul explained.
The Congressman also gave the strongest indication to date that he will not run as a third party candidate. When asked by Wallace why he refused to rule the possibility out, Paul replied "I essentially have," adding that "everyone knows I have no intention of doing that. It would be a bit of a burden."

Mayor Bloomberg of New York is embarking on a vendetta against sodium. The mayor and the city's health department have a stated goal of lowering sodium in packaged and restaurant foods by 25 percent over the course of the next five years. They've already won previous battles to try to improve public health by insisting that restaurants ban artificial trans fats and include calorie information on their menus.
Bloomberg's plan addresses the two largest sources of sodium in the American diet: processed foods and restaurant foods.
Bloomberg's assault on salt is an effort to curb high blood pressure, thereby cutting back on heart disease risk. Some studies have shown that cutting a gram of salt over the course of ten years could prevent as many as 250,000 cases of heart disease and 200,000 deaths.
Research has demonstrated that Americans currently take in about 3,400 mg of sodium daily, while the recommended maximum for healthy adults is 2,300 mg. And people at higher risk (older adults, African-Americans, and individuals who have already been diagnosed with high blood pressure) should take in even less—around 1,500 mg.
A variety of studies suggests that adhering to sodium maximums could essentially "cure" or prevent 11 million cases of high blood pressure yearly. Other studies have stated that decreasing salt intake by a gram over a decade could cut down on 250,000 cases of heart disease and 200,000 deaths. Yearly cost savings could total about 18 billion a year.
Some people have responded to Bloomberg's plan with skepticism, with criticisms ranging from concern about unintended negative effects of such a large public measure, to skepticism regarding the numbers of people actually harmed by excess sodium or potentially aided by decreasing sodium intake. Still others feel that the plan is essentially a bit of a sleight-of-hand: they accuse Bloomberg's administration of distracting the public with his attention to sodium's public health consequences, while simultaneously avoiding addressing other, more expensive public health and social problems, like unhealthy school lunches (which are chock-full of sodium and fat, and tend to skimp on fresh vegetables and fruit).
In the meantime, if you're interested in decreasing your sodium intake, consider the following steps:
- Get that salt shaker off the table – instead, flavor your food with lemon juice or herbs and spices.
- Cut back on packaged, processed foods, salty condiments, and frozen or canned foods.
- If you need to use packaged foods, learn to read labels, so you can choose lower-sodium options.
- Use fresh ingredients, and make it yourself: Home-cooking tends to bring the least additional sodium into the diet.
- When you eat out, request that your food be made without added salt.
- Cut back gradually on the amount of salt you add while cooking; your taste buds will adjust. A lot of people say the real taste of the food is actually more evident and enjoyable, once they learn not to rely on salt to provide the flavor in every dish.

I am back from my European adventure!! (actually been back a few weeks but was so swamped with work I haven't had the chance to post!) It was great ... my goodness, 3 weeks of eating, eating more eating and of course roasting it out in France was intense, relaxing and awesome all at the same time! As per usual it went by much too quickly but before I jump into details of it all, I have to share with you all something very exciting! I received this beauuutttiful cookbook upon my return. It's a new cookbook out called "Decorating Cakes" by The Australian Women's Weekly.
Although I was totally jetlagged I had a quick flick through and was totally mesmerized by the gorgeous eye candy staring back at me. This book covers all bases from basic cake mixes recipes to cake decorations on all levels (easy, experienced, expert) and even tips and tricks/ conversion charts the lot! An added bonus is that its all just so PRETTYYYYY which makes it alot easier to digest!
It was quite difficult to choose between all the decorating options available but I decided to show 2 ends of the spectrum to demonstrate the versatility of this book. For my sisters birthday I made her a Hello Kitty Cake. I used the method for making Hydrangea's as shown on page 62-63 to add to the decorations around the cake.
This is quite an easy and simple technique to master. It makes a huge difference to your cakes by adding that extra 3d element. Simple and quick for a massive result!
Another great thing about this book is the step by step guide of how to do a certain technique. Personally, I dont like reading copious amounts of writing in order to get out what I can with a few pictures ... could be my laziness but hey "pictures speak a thousand words"!
The second technique that I learnt from this book was "raised embossing", not sure if thats what its called but that's the best way I could explain it lol. Basically its using embossed fondant on a cake then piping with royal icing over the top for that extra layer of lace look. I used it on a recent wedding cake that I made and was really happy with the results. It's more difficult than the Hydrangea flowers but its all about practice!
Mine wasnt as fancy as the one in the book (see below) but I know with practice I'll get there! :)
Here are some snap shots of random pages in the book...
Its so prettily done isnt it? I love the styling in the book. I didn't get a chance to try out the recipes but there was one I had my eye on, it was the "Raspberry Hazelnut cake", sounds delish!! And... for all the recipes there's a chart for loads of different sized pans already calculated for you, so you don't even have to do any conversions or calcs! Genius!
I also forgot to mention its not just cakes. There's cupcakes, cookies, cake pops everything! A one stop decorating .. book :) Be great for a gift or even to surprise a baker.

Nationals pitcher and '97 World Series MVP Livan Hernandez is implicated in a case involving Puerto Rican drug kingpin Angel Ayala Vázquez (alternate titles: "Angelo Millones," "El Buster"). But he's not alone: El Vocero handily details all nine men compromised by the lawsuit and entangled in "los tentáculos de El Buster" with this lovely graphic.
We'd almost prefer to understand this story as it's served: Livan Hernandez is trapped in the terrifying clutches of a rather apathetic-looking half-human-half-octopus along with "El Caballero de la Salsa" and, accordingly, won't be able to pitch against the Mets tomorrow night. But it turns out that Hernandez allegedly laundered money on behalf of Vázquez, and could face criminal charges as a result of the federal probe.
The Nationals have not yet commented on their octopus-bound starter.

Denver, NC is located in Lincoln County, NC. It is situated on North Carolina State Highway 16 on the west side of Lake Norman on the Catawba River. It is about 25 miles north of downtown Charlotte and just south of the Catawba County boundary.
It was the man-made creation of a much larger body of water, Lake Norman, that led Denver to grow exponentially with new development. In 1962, Duke Power built the Cowans Ford Dam, flooding the fertile farmland along the Catawba River, which had attracted the area's first settlers. Soon, weekend and summer "getaway homes" began to appear lakeside, and after a few years, these were replaced by more luxurious lake homes, as individuals began to move to the area to live near the water.
Lake Norman waterfront homes in Denver range from small rustic cottages to magnificent, new luxury mansions. One major improvement to the Denver, NC area is the recent improvement of Highway 16, which now extends from the city of Charlotte up to Highway 73 (Sam Furr Road) in Huntersville at Lake Norman. This has not only created an easy commute to center city Charlotte and the airport, but has also resulted in a boom in residential and retail development.
Some wonderful new developments in Denver, NC include: Norman Pointe, Sailview, Norman Estates, Governors Island, Pebble Bay, Ashley Cove, Verdict Ridge and Killian Crossing.
Town festivals in Denver include the annual Strawberry Festival and Denver Days.
The Denver, NC area is also surrounded by golf course communities like Cowans Ford Golf Club and Verdict Ridge.

Mental Health advocates have some concerns over portions of the gun control laws approved by Governor Cuomo and the legislature this week.
During debate over the gun control legislation approved in the State senate and Assembly, the issue of mentally ill people using guns to kill others came up a number of times, particularly among legislators who are opposed to restricting access to assault weapons and other guns. Senator Kathy Marchione, who voted against the package, says most of the perpetrators of mass shootings in recent years have been suffering from a mental illness.
"In only one instance it wasn't mental illness," Marchione said. "We need to look at mental illness."
Glenn Liebman, with the Mental Health Association, says that kind of talk creates the wrong impression about the vast majority of those with mental illness. He's also worried about provisions in the new law that require mental health professionals to report patients to the authorities if they think the person might be a danger to themselves or others. Police would be able to confiscate their guns, if they have any, and they'd be red flagged in a centralized data base if they ever tried to buy a gun in the future.
Liebman says the changes unfairly stigmatize people with mental illness as more violent than the rest of society.
"It unfortunately continues to perpetuate that myth that people with mental illness are more violent than the general population," Liebman said. "People with mental illness are twelve times more likely to be victims of violence than perpetrators of violence."
Governor Cuomo, during negotiations on the bill, acknowledged that there needed to be better reporting of mentally ill people who had the potential to use guns against others. The governor, speaking at the bill signing ceremony, says he spent weeks of discussions trying to strike the right balance.
"It was a very complicated system to put together and a delicate balance to achieve," said Cuomo "You want to protect the rights of mental health professionals, and patients of mental health professional."
But the governor says, at the same time, he wanted a process that helps protect the patients from potentially harmful impulses.
"If a person is a possible threat to themselves, then you don't want them to have a gun," said Cuomo "Because they could possibly hurt themselves, also, as well as others."
Liebman says mental health advocates were not given input into the bill. But he says the groups have had a good relationship with Cuomo Administration officials in the past and hope to now focus on ensuring better access to treatment. He says while New York has not cut services to the mentally ill as deeply as other states, funding has been declining in recent years.
"You see it on the streets, you see the longer waiting lists, you see people not getting services" Liebman said. "It's a great frustration."
Liebman says would like to "pivot" to a "thoughtful discussion" about how to make treatment and mental health services more appealing, and less stigmatizing.
Mental Health advocates have some concerns over portions of the gun control laws approved by Governor Cuomo and the legislature this week.

The island of PHILAE and its Temple of Isis have bewitched visitors since Ptolemaic times, when most of the complex was constructed. The devout and curious were drawn here by a cult that flourished throughout the Roman Empire well into the Christian era. Although the first Europeans to "rediscover" Philae in the eighteenth century could only marvel at it from a distance after their attempts to land were "met with howls, threats and eventually the spears of the natives living in the ruins", subsequent visitors revelled in this mirage from antiquity.
After the building of the first Aswan Dam, rising waters lapped and surged about the temple, submerging it for half the year, when tourists would admire its shadowy presence beneath the translucent water. However, once it became apparent that the new High Dam would submerge Philae forever, UNESCO and the Egyptian authorities organized a massive operation (1972–80) to relocate its temples on nearby Aglika Island, which was landscaped to match the original site. The new Philae is magnificently set amid volcanic outcrops, like a jewel in the royal blue lake, but no longer faces Biga Island, sacred to Osiris. The Osirian myth and the cult of Isis are the subject of Philae's Sound and Light Show.
The Temple of Isis
Philae's cult status dates back to the New Kingdom, when Biga Island was identified as one of the burial places of Osiris – and the first piece of land to emerge from the primordial waters of Chaos. Since Biga was forbidden to all but the priesthood, however, public festivities centred upon neighbouring Philae, which was known originally as the "Island from the Time of Re".
Excluding a few remains from the Late Period, the existing Temple of Isis was constructed over some eight hundred years by Ptolemaic and Roman rulers who sought to identify themselves with the Osirian myth and the cult of Isis. An exquisite fusion of Ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman architecture, the temple complex harmonizes perfectly with its setting, sculpted pillars and pylons gleaming white or mellow gold against Mediterranean-blue water and black Nilotic rock.
Vestibule of Nectanebo
Motorboats land near the southern end of the island. In ancient times, on the original Philae, visitors ascended a double stairway to the Vestibule of Nectanebo at the entrance to the temple precincts. Erected by a XXX Dynasty pharaoh in honour of his "Mother Isis", this was the prototype for the graceful kiosks of the Ptolemaic and Roman era. Notice the double capitals on the remaining columns, traditional flower shapes topped with sistrum-Hathor squares that supported the architrave. The screens that once formed the walls are crowned with cavetto cornices and rows of uraeus serpents, a motif dating back to Zoser's complex at Saqqara, nearly three thousand years earlier.
The colonnades
Beyond the vestibule stretches an elongated trapezoidal courtyard flanked by colonnades. The West Colonnade is the better preserved, with finely carved capitals, each slightly different. The windows in the wall behind once faced Biga, the island of Osiris; the one opposite the first two columns is topped by a relief of Nero offering two eyes to Horus and Isis.
The plainer, unfinished East Colonnade abuts a succession of ruined structures. Past the foundations of the Temple of Arensnupis (worshipped as the "Good Companion of Isis" in the Late Period) lies a ruined Chapel of Mandulis, the Nubian god of Kalabsha. Near the First Pylon, an unfinished Temple of Imhotep honours the philosopher-physician who designed Zoser's Step Pyramid and was later deified as a god of healing. Its forecourt walls show Khnum, Satis, Anukis, Isis and Osiris, and Ptolemy IV before Imhotep.
The First Pylon
The lofty First Pylon was built by Neos Dionysos (Ptolemy XII), who smites enemies in the approved fashion at either corner, watched by Isis, Horus and Hathor. Set at right angles to the pylon, the Gate of Ptolemy II is probably a remnant of an earlier temple. The pylon's main portal is still older (dating from the reign of Nectanebo II) and was formerly flanked by two granite obelisks; now only two stone lions remain. Inside the portal are inscriptions by Napoleon's troops, commemorating their victory over the Mamlukes in 1799. The smaller door in the western section of the pylon leads through to the Birth House and was used for rituals; the entrance depicts the personified deities of Nubia and the usual Egyptian pantheon. On the back of the pylon are scenes of priests carrying Isis' barque.
The Forecourt
Emerging into the Forecourt, most visitors make a beeline for the Birth House or the Second Pylon, overlooking the colonnade to the east. Here, reliefs behind the stylish plant columns show the king performing rituals such as dragging the barque of Sokar. A series of doors lead into six rooms which probably had a service function; one of them, dubbed the Library, features Thoth in his ibis and baboon forms, Maat, lion-headed Tefnut and Sheshat, the goddess of writing. At the northern end stands a ruined chapel, which the Romans erected in front of a granite outcrop that was smoothed into a stele under Ptolemy IV and related his gift of lands to the temple.
The Second Pylon
Set at an angle to its forerunner, the Second Pylon changes the axis of the temple. A large relief on the right tower shows Neos Dionysos placing sacrifices before Horus and Hathor; in a smaller scene above he presents a wreath to Horus and Nephthys, offers incense and anoints an altar before Osiris, Isis and Horus. Similar scenes on the other tower have been defaced by early Christians, who executed the paintings in the upper right-hand corner of the pylon passageway, leading into the temple proper.
The Birth House
The western side of the forecourt is dominated by the colonnaded Birth House of Ptolemy IV, which linked his ancestry to Horus and Osiris. Most of the exterior reliefs were added in Roman times, which is why Emperor Augustus shadows Buto, goddess of the north, as she plays a harp before the young, naked Horus and his mother at one end of the central register, behind the Hathor-headed colonnade. Further south and higher up, the Roman reliefs overlie inscriptions in hieroglyphs and demotic characters that partly duplicate those on the Rosetta Stone. Inside, a columned forecourt and two vestibules precede the sanctuary, which contains the finest scenes. Although iconoclasts have defaced the goddess suckling the child-pharaoh on the left-hand wall, you can see Isis giving birth to Horus in the marshes at the bottom of the rear wall. Around the back of the sanctuary behind the northern colonnade is a corresponding scene of Isis nursing Horus in the swamp.
The Hypostyle Hall
Immediately behind the Second Pylon lies a small open court that was originally separated from the Hypostyle Hall by a screen wall, now destroyed. A lovely drawing by David Roberts shows this "Grand Portico" in its rich original colours: the flowering capitals are in shades of green with yellow flowers and blue buds; crimson and golden winged sun-discs are seen flying down the central aisle of the ceiling, which elsewhere bears astronomical reliefs. The unpainted walls and column shafts show the hall's builder, Ptolemy VII Euergetes II, sacrificing to various deities. After the emperor Justinian forbade the celebration of Isis rituals at Philae in 550 AD, Copts used the hall for services and chiselled crosses into the walls. On the left-hand jamb of the portal into the vestibule beyond, a piece of Roman graffiti asserts B Mure stultus est ("B Mure is stupid").
The vestibules
As at other temples, the vestibules get lower and darker as you approach the sanctuary. By a doorway to the right of the first vestibule, a Greek inscription records the "cleansing" of this pagan structure under Bishop Theodorus, during the reign of Justinian. On the other side of the vestibule is a room giving access to the stairs to the roof. The next vestibule has an interesting scene flanking the portal at the back, where the king offers a sistrum and wine to Isis and Harpocrates (Child Horus). On the left-hand door jamb, he leaves offerings to Min, a basket to Sekhmet and wine to Osiris, with the sacred bull and seven cows in the background. In the partially ruined transverse vestibule, the king offers necklaces, wine and eye paint to Osiris, Isis, Hathor and Nephthys, outside the sanctuary.
The sanctuary
Dimly lit by two apertures in the roof, the sanctuary contains a stone pedestal dedicated by Ptolemy III and his wife Berenice, which once supported the goddess's barque. On the left wall, the pharaoh faces Isis, whose wings protectively enfold Osiris. Across the room, an enthroned Isis suckles the infant Horus and stands to suckle a young pharaoh (below, now defaced). The other rooms, used for rites or storage, contain reliefs of goddesses with Nubian features.
Hadrian's Gate
Leaving the temple through the western door of the first vestibule you'll emerge near Hadrian's Gate, set into the girdle wall that once encircled Philae Island. Flanking your approach are two walls from a bygone vestibule, decorated with notable reliefs. The right-hand wall depicts the origin of the Nile, whose twin streams are poured forth by Hapy the Nile-god from his cave beneath Biga Island, atop which perches a falcon. To the right of this, Isis, Nephthys and others adore the young falcon as he rises from a marsh.
Above the door in the opposite wall, Isis and Nephthys present the dual crowns to Horus, whose name is inscribed on a palm stalk by Sheshat and Thoth. Below, Isis watches a crocodile drag the corpse of Osiris to a rocky promontory (presumably Biga). Around the gate itself, Hadrian appears before the gods (above the lintel) and the door jambs bear the fetishes of Abydos and Osiris. At the top of the wall, Marcus Aurelius stands before Isis and Osiris; below he offers Isis grapes and flowers.
North of the gateway lie the foundations of the Temple of Harendotes (an aspect of Horus), built by the emperor Claudius.
Elsewhere on the island
To complete the cast of deities involved in the Osirian myth, a small Temple of Hathor was erected to the east of the main complex – really only notable for a relief of musicians, among whom the god Bes plays a harp. More eye-catching and virtually the symbol of Philae is the graceful open-topped Kiosk of Trajan, nicknamed the "Pharaoh's Bedstead". Removed from its watery grave by a team of British navy divers, the reconstructed kiosk juxtaposes variegated floral columns with a severely classical superstructure; only two of the screen wall panels bear reliefs.

song "…Baby one more time" not only became a pop anthem for the 21st century but one of the best things that came out of late 90's pop culture.
a time where the internet was in full boom and pop music was taking off, Britney Spears' debut album rose to the top on January 12th, 1999.
Although I was only a few months old when the album was released, I grew up listening to Britney Spears as a child and if it weren't for this album, I wouldn't love pop music or any genre for that matter.
it's only the small 5- year old girl in me to discuss this.
start off, one of the main reasons why the album debuted at number 1 was because of her hit song(of course) of the same name.
Max Martin hit became a huge success because of the provocative lyrics and suggestive chorus. Even though the song was recommended by the girl group, TLC, Spears' turned the song into her own. Her ad-lib vocals and not to mention, school-girl co-play in the
music video was a sight to see.
16-year-old Spears triggered many teenage girls to play the naughty schoolgirl gig. All these notes were the beginning of making Spears an international superstar.
it was only necessary the album reached the top of Billboard 200 simultaneously while the song was number one.
other singles like "Sometimes", "You drive me(crazy)" and "Born to make you happy" also became chart-toppers in their own rights. "Sometimes" is a romantic teen ballad that focuses on a shy girl struggle to express herself in front of her lover.
it gave teens a chance to dream of finding that special someone. When I first listened to the album at ten years old, "You drive me (crazy)" was one of my favorite songs because it sounded like the perfect pop jingle. Now as an adult, of course, it sounds
more cheesy. However, the song stays memorable.
just one of those songs that were great for radio because the chorus was easy to sing-along to. The stop remix just took the song even further with a danceable groove and a Melissa Joan-Hart cameo in her music video.
"Born to make you happy" became one of my favorite ballads off the album because of its sweet lyrics and dreamy music video.
is also one of the many songs that many fans would love just because of the piano hook in the beginning.
In addition, to "Happy," "From the Bottom of my broken heart" may be one of her best ballads because her voice sounds very underrated.
light head voice is smooth through the chorus and the ending sounds relatable and complete.
And the techno Sonny and Cher cover of "The Beat goes on" was a shocking completion to the song as well.
the end, Spears' debut album still holds a great legacy and remains a pop manual for artists for current pop artists.
As a Diamond-certified album, the album serves as a manual not just because of the songs, but because of Spears' stage charisma.
the new teen sensation she showed critics that she wasn't an entertainer to be wrecked with.
Her stage persona and fun choreography got people anticipating her next move and bopping to her songs. That passion as an entertainer dubbed her the Princess the pop.

Utah unemployment rate continues to drop
December 20, 2013
"We continue to head in the right direction with unemployment dropping again this month," said Governor Gary R. Herbert. "I am particularly encouraged by our job growth in the private sector."
Utah added approximately 27,900 jobs to the economy compared to November 2012, growing at a rate of 2.2 percent. Nearly all sectors of the economy are growing, with government being the most notable exception.
"As Utahns, we have a lot to be grateful for, but I continue to be mindful of those who want to work but can't find a job," said the Governor. "Particularly during this holiday season, I encourage everyone who is able, to find someone in need and do what they can to help."
"Utah's private sector job growth and low unemployment rate continue to be among the best in the nation," said Chief Economist Juliette Tennert. "We still have one more month of data to come in for 2013 but we've posted consistently encouraging numbers."
The biggest gains were in trade, transportation and utilities, leisure and hospitality and education and health services.

The term eugenics, defining a theory of human evolutionary genetics and "racial improvement" that exerted a profound influence on archaeological interpretation in the Mediterranean basin and Near East, was coined In 1883 by Francis Galton. A widely respected Victorian statistician and social critic, Galton sought to apply the principles of Darwinian "natural selection" to the improvement of the human race. According to the genetic theory first detailed in Galton's most famous work, Hereditary Genius: An Inquiry into its Laws and Consequences (New York, 1870), human races possess varying levels of intelligence and physical capabilities. Indeed, the ability of each race—so the theory went—could be measured, to provide a clear hierarchy of racial groups.
The movement of history, Galton contended, was propelled by the effects of this hereditary inequality, with "superior" races naturally conquering and subsequently dominating "inferior" ones. Galton and his followers further believed that uncontrolled interbreeding between superior and inferior races led inevitably to the degeneration of the former, and to their inevitable conquest by yet purer and superior racial groups. The early supporters of the eugenics movement in England were primarily concerned with modern racial issues: the social effects of massive immigration into the country in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the often problematic relationship between British imperial administrators and the millions of Asians, Africans, and Middle Easterners they presumed to rule. Yet, one of the most important intellectual tasks undertaken by the supporters of eugenics was to demonstrate that racial inequality had been an operative factor throughout history—and that uncontrolled "race mixing" had uniformly disastrous results in all societies in which it occurred.
William M. Flinders Petrie was among the first archaeologists to be deeply affected by Galtonian eugenics in the reconstruction of past societies. In 1885, Petrie accepted employment by Galton to travel up the Nile River and photograph ancient Egyptian reliefs. The expectation was that the standard complement of human races, identifiable by their standard facial and bodily characteristics, could be traced back to pharaonic times. The result of this expedition was Petrie's book Racial Photographs from the Egyptian Monuments (1887), which was among the first archaeological works to describe the various ethnic groups of the ancient Near East with modern racial terminology. Petrie further elaborated the idea of racial hierarchy in the ancient Near East in his later excavations both in Egypt and Palestine. His recognition of successive strata of occupation at every site was linked to a sequence of historical conquests. Indeed, Petrie and the generation of Near Eastern archaeologists he trained and influenced grew accustomed to associating the appearance of new classes of artifacts at stratified sites such as Gurob in Egypt and Tell el-Ḥsi in Palestine with the arrival (and conquest) of aggressive and technologically superior ethnic groups.
The legacy of Petrie's eugenical thinking continued to exert an effect on the implicit racial thinking of Near Eastern archaeology until long after his death In 1940. The statistical assumptions underlying the seriation techniques used to construct a chronological typology of ceramic types (pioneered by Petrie at Naqada, Hu, and Abadiya in Egypt) were based on the acceptance of the inevitability of a rise-floruit-fall cycle in every aspect of human cultural production—implicitly paralleling the supposed genetic rise-floruit-fall of every interbreeding racial or ethnic group. Moreover, the identification of external invasion as the primary motivation for the major cultural breaks in every major archaeological period, from the Chalcolithic to the end of the Crusader period, served to transform modern archaeological research, at least partially, into an ideological justification for the aggressive expansion into the Near East of the professedly superior European imperial powers. The assumptions of Petrie and his followers about the cultural superiority of the supposedly northern Hyksos or Aegean-based Philistines are two cases that illustrate his eugenical belief about the effect exerted by superior, or more innovative, races on the basically uncreative culture of Palestine.
Racial terminology and eugenical thinking remained prominent in archaeological thinking through the 1930s. Considerable attention was paid by scholars to the racial origins of excavated skeletal remains and the racial connections of cultural forms and artifact types. Through the continuing use of Petrie's basic methodology of distinguishing discrete strata often uncritically linked to invasions of historically mentioned ethnic groups, race remained a prominent (though scientifically unverified) element in reconstructions of ancient Near Eastern history. In the continuing, uncritical acceptance of rise-floruit-fall cycles in pottery types, and in the undefined attribution of social or cultural change to outside "influence" or internal "disintegration," some scholars may still implicitly promulgate the basic concepts of eugenical history. When, or if, they do, those concepts are promulgated as inherited ideology rather than empirically verified fact.
In the wake of World War II, however, the scientific bases for eugenical theories were largely undermined. Revulsion at the Nazis' final solution to the problem of "racial degeneration" ultimately paved the way for the final fall of eugenics, both as a modern social program and a scientific theory. In the 1950s and the 1960s, with the discovery of DNA and the beginning of research into population biology and the complexity of genetic inheritance, it became clear that the concept of "races" as distinct or even measurable entities was a dangerous oversimplification. New approaches—economic adaptation, innovation, cultural borrowing and exchange—in addition to invasion, came to be examined as the cause for changes in patterns of material culture.

Does Your German Shepherd has Eye Problems?
Although flat headed breeds that have protruding eyes are more prone to eye discharge problems, yet many German Shepherds have this common problem. Part from discharged eyes, German Shepherds, alike any other breed can have eye problems. Eye problems in GSDs are often time noticed in old dogs. Some of the very common symptoms of eye problems in your GSD are however:
- Epiphora - excessive tearing
- Sticky and tenacious discharge - dry eye
- Thin discharge, but continuous
- Red eye
- cloudy eyes
- Intolerant to light
- Rubbing face on the floor or wall
- Rubbing eyes with his front legs
Prevention is always better than cure! Diet, here, comes to play a vital role as a preventive measure. There are however, certain genetic disorders for instance, "pannus cataract", medically termed as "Chronic Superficial Keratitis", is an ophthalmic problem mostly noticed in German Shepherd Dog, but also found in other breeds like Rottweilers etc. Diet, doesn't help much once the disease grows matured. However, proper diet with good eye nutrient from the early age can be precautionary measure.
Your dog's diet must include components rich in antioxidants, vitamin A, Vitamin B12, vitamin D, bioflavonoids, cysteine, lecithin and zinc. Studies have shown that wheat sprout powder s one of the richest sources of high level of organic phosphates and very strong blend of antioxidant molecules, which reduces the chance of developing cataract in dogs. Your German Shepherd is a dog and not a carnivorous animal. Remember, he is omnivorous, and hence do not feed him only meat. Green is highly recommended. Green leafy vegetables, cabbage leaves, parsley, spinach, carrot and green papayas are great components of a dog's diet. Fruits like ripen papaya, and mango are excellent sources of Bioflavonoids, which is very important for your GSD's eye health. Sunflower seeds and sesame seeds are wise additions to his diet. Eggs are powerful source of some of the major eye nutrients like vitamin A, Vitamin B12, vitamin D, cysteine, lecithin and zinc. An adult German Shepherd that has normal digestive system can be given two eggs in each major meal. Read more...

Anna and Oscar Nunez
Anna and The Office cast
On her way back home, Anna looks to the day when she'll return to Southern California for college.
Full of humor and sarcasm, the NBC hit comedy "The Office" allows Anna to relax and just laugh – taking her away from the struggles of her critical illness.
As a young child, Anna was diagnosed with hypoplasia, a condition affecting the development of her arms and legs keeping her wheelchair bound. While she deals with the challenges of her illness she is able to stay positive while focusing on her passions of all things film, theater and television related.
She asked Make-A-Wish volunteers to see the set of her favorite show "The Office" because she aspires for a career in the film industry.
"I knew visiting the set of The Office would be amazing and would help me learn for my future," she says.
There, Anna finds herself standing at the front door of the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company office – the setting for the show.
"It was really cool because The Office films in a real building, not a soundstage," she says.
As Anna opens the door she is surprised to see B.J. Novak, who plays Ryan Howard on the show, standing right in the doorway. B.J. and Anna become fast friends – they still send each other letters today. But he is only the first of many cast members Anna meets.
Rainn Wilson (Dwight Schrute), John Krasinski (Jim Halpert), Jenna Fischer (Pam Beesly) and the rest of "The Office" gang greet Anna while she watches them rehearse two scenes. And of course she spends time with the "World's Best Boss" Michael Scott – actor Steve Carell. The actors tell Anna about their day-to-day life filming and how they broke into show business providing encouragement for this wish kid's future career.
"I was in shock, but they were all so down to earth and different from their characters in real life," Anna says.
After meeting the stars, Anna learns the tricks of the trade from the show's film editor, prop director and producer. They give her a signed copy of the episode's script. She also receives a makeover from the show's makeup artist. She then takes a full tour of the set and even sits in Michael Scott's desk.
On her way back home, Anna looks to the day when she'll return to Southern California for college.
Anna's wish experience may just become a part of her Academy Award speech.
I knew visiting the set of 'The Office' would be amazing and would help me learn for my future

Adding missing packages which are dependencies to compile the kernel
add tip: make localmodconfig
|Deletions are marked like this.
|Additions are marked like this.
|Line 58:
|Line 58:
If you want to compile faster, you can remove from the configuration all the modules you are not using at the moment in your system with:
make localmodconfig}}}
Warning: this might not compile some required modules to your system when building the kernel.
Developing on a native Linux platform
These instructions assume you're running a variant of Ubuntu (like 12.04 LTS).
Install some packages
First, open a terminal. Click the ubuntu logo at the top left corner and type "terminal". Click the terminal screen icon.
- Tip: You may want to pin the terminal app for easy access. Do that by hitting the Windows logo key, moving your mouse over the terminal icon on the left vertical menu, right clicking, and chosing "Lock to Launcher". You can make the menu go away by hitting the escape key.
Next, run this command:
sudo apt-get install vim libncurses5-dev gcc make git exuberant-ctags libssl-dev bison flex libelf-dev
Setup your Linux kernel code repository
Once that finishes, run these two commands:
mkdir -p git/kernels; cd git/kernels
Tip: mkdir creates directories, and cd changes the current working directory to a different directory. You can learn more about any command by reading the manual pages. Simply prefixing the command with the word "man", e.g. man mkdir.
Then use the revision control system called git to clone Greg Kroah-Hartman's staging tree repository:
git clone -b staging-testing git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
That's going to take a while. Why don't you read up on Linux Device Drivers in the meantime? The first couple of chapters, especially the ones on kernel modules, will be useful. (Note that LDD3 is a bit outdated; the high-level overviews still make sense, but a few of the code examples are out of date. Still recommended to get a view of the kernel landscape, though.)
Next, change into the staging directory:
cd staging
Now you need to compile the kernel. The first step is setting up your kernel configuration.
Setting up your kernel configuration
Many kernel drivers can be turned on or off, or built as modules. The .config file in the kernel source directory determines which drivers are built. When you download the source tree, it doesn't come with a .config file. You have several options on generating a .config file. The easiest is to duplicate your current config.
Duplicating your current config
If you're trying to see if a bug is fixed, you probably want to duplicate the configuration on your running kernel. That config file is stored somewhere in /boot/. There might be several files that start with config, so you want the one associated with your running kernel. You can find that by running uname -a and finding the config file that ends with your kernel version number. Copy that file into the source directory as .config. Or just run this command:
cp /boot/config-`uname -r`* .config
Changing your config
If you need to make any changes to your configuration, run this command to silently update any new configuration values to their default:
make olddefconfig
If you need to make changes, you can run:
make menuconfig
This requires the ncurses library to be installed.
If you want to compile faster, you can remove from the configuration all the modules you are not using at the moment in your system with:
make localmodconfig
Warning: this might not compile some required modules to your system when building the kernel.
Building the kernel
Or, if you have a multi-core processor, run
make -jX
Where X is a number like 2 or 4. If you have a dual core, 2 or 3 might be good. Quad core, 4 or 6. Do not run with really big numbers unless you want your machine to be dog-slow!
Let that compile, and maybe read some more of the Linux Device Drivers book.
Note: when you run make with a .config file that was copied from a different kernel than the one you were building, you may be prompted to make choices about which new kernel features to enable. When in doubt, just choose the default choice. You can do that by hitting enter. A faster way to simply chose all the defaults is to run make menuconfig.This will set default values for unset features. Don't forget to save when you exit.
Installing the kernel
To install a kernel, you will need to either manually update your GRUB configuration file, or have an installkernel script. This script installs the kernel to /boot/, installs modules to /lib/modules/X.Y.Z/ (where X.Y.Z is something like 3.1.5), and updates file /boot/grub/grub.conf. Fortunately, Ubuntu provides an installkernel script in /sbin/installkernel. The grubby RPM provides it for RPM based systems.
If you have an installkernel script, you can just run
sudo make modules_install install
Or if you don't have sudo installed, run
su -c "make modules_install install"
Running your kernel
Linux stores both old and new kernel versions, so you can boot into your old kernel if you run into issues with your new kernel. The bootloader program called grub lets you chose which kernel you want to boot into.
The grub bootloader usually presents users with a choice of kernels and you can reboot into a known good kernel if your new compile doesn't work. Some distros (like Ubuntu) use a default grub configuration that hides that menu. You can usually get the menu to appear by mashing the ESC key during boot after the BIOS display disappears.
To make the grub boot menu always appear under Ubuntu, run
sudo vim /etc/default/grub
Then delete these two lines:
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
This next line controls how long grub shows the menu before it choses the kernel at the top of the list (which is usually the most recent kernel):
You may want to increase the GRUB_DEFAULT timeout from 10 seconds to 30 seconds or more. I set it to 60 seconds.
After you've finished editing the grub file, you need to tell grub that you made a change, so that can re-write some automatically generated files. Run this command:
sudo update-grub2
You will (usually) need to reboot into your new kernel.
Email software
To send patches, you will need to be able to have a mail transport client installed:
sudo apt-get install esmtp
Now you will be able to send email through git-send-email. However, we also recommend having a mail client installed that can handle plain text patch format. Our recommendation is a text-based email client called mutt:
sudo apt-get install mutt
You may want to send patches with the git send-email command, so you need to install the git-email package:
sudo apt-get install git-email
Optional tools
sudo apt-get install gitk
gitk is a graphical git repository browser. You can use it to look at the state of your repository and the commits you've made on top of upstream. Just type gitk from within your kernel source directory.
Make ctags
In the git/kernels/staging/ directory, run
make tags
That will make ctags for the source code. When you start editing code in vim from the base directory (git/kernels/staging/), you can use the CTRL+] to look up the definition of a function. See the ctags entry in the vim tips wiki for more info.
Yay, you're done setting up your kernel development environment! Now go start at these directions to get more instructions for how to modify the Linux kernel and send your first patch.

This film provides a wonderful overview of the town of Selby as it was in 1965 and is accompanied by an interesting historical commentary. It shows pedestrians and traffic in the town centre, many of the shops, and includes the Toll Bridge, the Monday market, the Reverend John Kent giving a tour of the Abbey, the shipyard, the BOCM Mill, and a Council meeting.
This is a film of the Scout Group of St Thomas Groves, Lord Mayor's Own, York, out on an event in York with other Scout, Cub and Girl Guide groups.
This is film of several performances in a theatre, filmed from somewhere in the stalls. It includes a Christmas show, song and dance routines, and comedy.
The performance starts with performers seated in a long line on the stage. They are singing and suddenly stand up and display the letters spelling "Christmas". There is then an act with a man in shorts and a long white beard on a tricycle. This is followed by a routine involving the singing of 'Good Pull-Up For Cyclists' – a popular variety feature written by Ernest Longstaffe – holding up the lyrics for the audience to sing along to. The act seems to involve cycling and the boy scouts. There are women dancing in formation and comedy acts, as well as, presumably, excerpts from musicals, as well as a school performance and a performance of ukulele players.
Part of the Calendar Magazine series, this film shows disabled athletes preparing for the Special Olympics in Sheffield.

I hear their hushed babbles; they watch me. They recognize the clothing I wear; clothing that proclaims my royal position. I am the one honored by Nimrod himself, selected from the workers for this task. I am Akkade of Shinar.
An acrid odor clings to the plain; my eyes burn. Bricks outnumbering the stars in the sky are baked in the fires that continually flame. Workers form the bricks in order to build our city and the great tower that will reach to the heavens, up to God himself. Nimrod proclaims that no power on earth can stop us. The task assigned to me, Akkade of Shinar, is to measure the tower progress. I will give a report each araḫ1 to Nimrod.
Araḫ Samna2
The work begins. The tower foundation has been laid. I have measured and certified the perimeter at 73 nindanu3 square. Bricks are continuously being produced.
--Akkade of Shinar
Most workers now ignore me, but not he. I see him; he still stares. Jealousy and hatred flare from his eyes, eyes that mirror the fires he continually feeds. I should forget him; he is just a worker, a common fire-stoker.
Araḫ Kislimu2
Rain has slowed the progress. The tower height is two nindanu3.
--Akkade of Shinar
Bricks rained down, and one struck my shoulder as I prepared to measure the tower today. I hurriedly climbed the steps and saw him scurry away. It was the common fire-stoker, as I've come to think of him. He is becoming a threat. I must speak to Nimrod concerning him.
Araḫ Ṭebētum2
The rains have ceased and progress has resumed. The tower height has reached two aslu4. Brick production is not keeping up. We must find a way to turn out bricks faster.
--Akkade of Shinar
The tower is reaching to heaven, up to God. Nothing can stop us. We will soon walk into the presence of the Most High. Generations from now, when people see the tower, they will remember what we accomplished.
Araḫ Šabaṭu2
The tower is approaching four aslu4. Good communication among the workers is aiding the progress. I propose we inscribe your worthy name, Nimrod, on the capstone of this great tower.
--Akkade of Shinar
Nothing further hinders our progress. We have birthed this tower and nourished it. Some mornings as I see clouds surround the top, I almost believe it is the breath exhaled from the tower. I must ask permission of Nimrod to inscribe my name on a stone at the top. I, too, will be praised by generations who see this great marvel. They will see the tower and remember Akkade of Shinar.
Nimrod has given permission to do whatever pleases me concerning the common fire-stoker. Today, I will confront him. He will bow to me or he will be reassigned. The air holds an excitement; all my dreams are coming to pass. I'm pleased with the great height reached by our torre5. ¿Qué pasó? ¡No entiendo! El trabajo se ha parado. ¡Contésteme ahora! ¡Soy Akkade de Shinar!6
~~ Fictional story based on The Tower of Babel from Genesis 11:1-9 ~~
1 Araḫ - month
2 Samna, Kislimu, Ṭebētum, and Šabaṭu – Babylonian month names
3 one nindanu, an ancient Mesopotamian unit of measure = 6 meters
4 one aslu, an ancient Mesopotamian unit of measure = 60 meters
5 tower
6 What happened? I don\'t understand! Work has stopped. Answer me, now! I am Akkade of Shinar!

|The Hannah Arendt Papers
|Three Essays: The Role of Experience in Hannah Arendt's Political Thought
Evil: The Crime against Humanity
by Jerome Kohn, Director, Hannah Arendt Center, New School University
|1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8
From "Ideology and Propaganda," The Hannah Arendt Papers (The Library of Congress Manuscript Division).
Both Hitler and Stalin discovered in the camps the means to realize their belief in total power, a belief that meant not only that "everything is permitted" but implied the far more radical proposition that "everything is possible." The camps were designed as "laboratories" in which "experiments" were conducted to test that proposition, and what those experiments demonstrated was that "the omnipotence of man" is bought at the price "of the superfluity of men." (see "Ideology and Propaganda") In the camps all men were remade into one man, all human beings into one utterly predictable "living corpse," a body permanently in "the process of dying." Human beings were reduced "to the lowest common denominator of organic life," (see "The Image of Hell") rendered "equal" in the sense of being interchangeable which, it should be noted, is exactly the opposite of political equality. Arendt understood political equality as the equality of peers, the achievement of a plurality of distinct individuals who join together in freedom to generate power and take responsibility for their common world.
Human existence, according to Arendt, is in part conditioned and in part free, but the terror induced in the concentration camps corrodes from within the part that is free. Unlike fear that is intelligible in its relation to an object in the world, or to the objectivity of a threatening world, terror conditions human beings in much the same way that the behavior of animals is conditioned by such means as electric shock. Pavlov's dog, which Arendt called a "perverted" animal, was conditioned to salivate not when it was hungry but when a bell was rung, and systematically starved men and women were likewise conditioned to behave inhumanly in the hope of being fed.2 In the contrived world of the camps the categories of right and wrong, virtue and vice, individual innocence or guilt, and almost everything else that since time immemorial has been associated with the specific nature of human beings ceased to make sense. As yet, at least so far as is known, totalitarian camps are the only places on earth where the total domination of the human person was "scientifically" implemented and accomplished.
When compared with its "insane end-result"--the realization of hell in the midst of life without pretense to "an absolute standard of justice" or recourse to "the infinite possibility of grace"--the assault on human nature in the camps was methodological and threefold. The "first, essential step" is the destruction of juridical or political man by disfranchisement; secondly, the moral person is destroyed by rendering his or her conscience impotent; and thirdly, the "unique identity" of the individual is obliterated by annihilating the human capacity for spontaneity in thought and action. Disfranchisement means the elimination of every legal status, including even that of the criminal. Human beings are subjected to torment not only unfit for any conceivable crime but also unrelated to anything they have done; they are punished for having been born a Jew, for being the representative of a dying class, for being "asocial," or mentally ill, or the carrier of a disease. New categories would be invented when old categories became exhausted, or victims would have to be selected at random, as in fact they finally were in Stalin's "more perfect" system. The arbitrariness of the choice of victims aims at destroying "the civil rights of the whole population," and such destruction is by no means a matter of brainwashing since it is not "consent" that is wanted but only absolute "discipline." In the camps every legal right and political institution that for centuries had been wrought to stabilize the world and clear a space for human freedom, including the expression and debate of diverse opinions, is swept away as if it had never existed. In this sense the destruction of juridical or political man "is a prerequisite for dominating him entirely."
Next, the ability to make a conscientious choice is negated. Prisoners are made to choose not
between good and evil but between evil and evil. When a mother is forced to choose one of her
children to be murdered in order to save the life (or postpone the death) of another, she is
implicated in the crime committed against her. Martyrdom was not possible since the camps were
what Arendt called "holes of oblivion," places completely cut off from the outside world in which a
martyr's story might be told, remembered, and become an example for others. The dead are
immediately forgotten "as if they had never existed," their deaths as superfluous as their lives had
been. Finally, the concentration of human beings, massing them together and binding them in
terror's "band of iron," destroys every relation to and distinction from one another, obliterating not
only their individual place in the world but their individuality itself. They are submitted to torture,
not to learn what they know but to so hurt them that they became bundles of insensate flesh. Far
from being able to act spontaneously, to begin anything new by acting or thinking, they walk "'like
dummies to their death'" (David Rousset, Les jours de notre mort [Paris, 1947], quoted by
Arendt). In the slave labor camps of the Gulag, with their supposed economic "rationale," the
laborers are starved or frozen to death, at once replaced by others whose lives and deaths are no
less superfluous than those of their predecessors.
2. Arendt quotes the Polish poet Tadeusz Borowski on his experience in Auschwitz: "Never before was hope stronger than man, and never before did hope result in so much evil. . . . We were taught not to give up hope. That is why we die in the gas oven." Agreeing that hope "stronger than man" is "destructive"of humanity, she added that the victims' innocence, "even from the viewpoint of their persecutors," further dehumanizes them: that their "apathy" toward their own death is "the almost physical, automatic response to the challenge of absolute meaninglessness" (see "Why Did the World Remain Silent?" reprinted in The Jewish World 2 [September 1964]).

DOVER — A 43-year-old Somersworth man was arraigned on charges of negligent homicide and driving while intoxicated Monday after allegedly causing a head-on crash in Rollinsford that killed a woman on her honeymoon.
DOVER — A 43-year-old Somersworth man was arraigned on charges of negligent homicide and driving while intoxicated Monday after allegedly causing a head-on crash in Rollinsford that killed a woman on her honeymoon.
Matthew Tsopas was ordered held on $250,000 cash bail during a bed-side arraignment at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, where he remains in treatment.
A hospital spokeswoman declined to comment on his condition Monday, citing the fact that Tsopas did not choose to list his name on the patient directory.
Strafford County Attorney Tom Velardi said after the hearing that Tsopas was alert and able to answer questions from 7th Circuit Court Judge Stephen Morrison, who traveled to the hospital.
Saturday's crash occurred on Route 4 at the intersection of Old Mill Lane.
Investigators say the vehicle Tsopas was driving struck a 2008 KIA Spectra operated by Brian Preiss of St. Paul, Minn., at about 4:30 p.m.
His wife, 30-year-old Leah Fonda, a passenger in the car, was fatally injured. She succumbed to her injuries after being taken to Wentworth-Douglass.
The couple was on a honeymoon in New Hampshire.
Preiss was treated at the hospital then moved to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. A spokesman reported Monday that Preiss is in fair condition. He received internal injuries and wounds to his head and wrist.
Police say Tsopas fled the accident scene on foot, and was later taken into custody by Dover police a short distance away.
He faces two alternate theory counts of negligent homicide, as well as charges of felony aggravated driving under the influence and two complaints regarding conduct after an accident.
Investigators say before Saturday's crash, Tsopas was involved in an earlier incident at the American Legion in Rollinsford, where he was reported to have crashed into several vehicles in the parking lot before leaving the scene. Police were responding to that incident when the crash occurred.
Speaking outside the hospital, Velardi said it's likely that Tsopas will face additional charges related to his disappearance after the crash. Velardi said he was taken into custody without incident once he was located.
Police administered a blood alcohol test to Tsopas after the crash, but Velardi declined to discuss the results.
A portion of Route 4 in Rollinsford was blocked off for several hours as emergency first responders worked at the scene. In addition to state police, officers from the Rollinsford and Dover police departments provided assistance, as well as personnel from Rollinsford Fire and Rescue, Dover Fire and Rescue and American Medical Response.
The New Hampshire Bureau of Liquor Enforcement also is investigating.

The deal is valued at approximately $1.28 billion and is the largest deal to date in the Indian market.
The projects will use Suzlon turbine models including the S88 and the S9X series 2.1MW turbines. 500MW are to be commissioned by March 2012, with a further 500MW by March 2013.
Last week, Suzlon signed a memorandum of understanding with the government of Gujurat to develop 1GW over the next three years.
The agreement to develop wind farms in the districts of Saurashtra, Kutch and other areas, will double Suzlon's capacity in the north western Indian state, which is home to some of India's best wind resources.
Earlier in the month, the manufacturer won a $191 million contract from Indian mining group Vedanta to supply 150MW for four projects.
Suzlon will supply S82 1.5MW and S88 2.1MW turbines to projects in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu in southern India, Rajastan in northern India and Maharastra in western India.

After many requests, we have designed a carved top version of the legendary Tele® shaped guitar body. Most carved top
bodies require a laminate top but as with the Alder body above, we can use a standard sized body blank to carve the body from. Not only is this a great design option, but it is also more economical to produce and available at a lower price point than most carved top bodies.
Now, if you would like a fancy wood laminate top, we can, of course, accommodate your wood desires there as well! Also, check out the Hollow construction option for reduced weight and the F-Hole options for cool looks!
Our "In Stock" selection has thousands of custom bodies and necks ready for purchase! These are the same quality as our custom built items. We pre-build many popular items and pass the savings on to you. Simply click on the image above to view and order today.
If you cannot find what you desire in our "In Stock" selection, we would be very happy to simply design it for you! Depending on your exact specifications, most items from this category only take about 4 to 6 weeks for us to make! Having it your way is what "custom" is all about and our skilled craftsmen are second to none!
