Lastarande Bell faced a judge Monday morning for a suppression hearing days before his second murder trial is set to begin.
Bell was convicted of first-degree murder and arson back in 2008.
The Springfield man was found guilty of killing Julie Ann Nieves his ex-girlfriend's mother in 2007.
Bell allegedly broke into Nieves' home, doused her with gasoline and set her home on fire. Nieves died from her injuries several weeks after the incident.
In 2011, Bell's conviction was overturned after the highest court in the state ruled that the jury should have been given instructions on second-degree felony murder based on the arson charge that Bell was facing.
Bell's attorney tells CBS 3 that a lot of questions have been left unanswered in the case, and that the only person that was there has told us that it wasn't his fault.
Jury selection is set to begin Tuesday the trial is expected to start later in the week.

DVD: Mother's Day Remake Finally Has a U.S. Release Date | Shock Till You Drop
Something happened with this one. It's taken 2+ years just to go direct to dvd? The odd thing, a lot of the reviews were good and Frank Grillo, who has received a lot of notice for 'The Grey' is in it. You would think this would get at least a quickie theater release. I'd really like to know the story here.

The Devil's Carnival' Teaser Trailer: 'Repo! The Genetic Opera' Creators Return
So in on this!!!!Quote:
Darren Lynn Bousman, who co-wrote and directed the midnight cult fave Repo! The Genetic Opera, has created a follow-up musical called The Devil's Carnival. The 55-minute film features some returning Repo! players such as Paul Sorvino, Alexa Vega, Bill Moseley, and Ogre of Skinny Puppy. It also has some new faces such as Jessica Lowndes, Sean Patrick Flannery, Briana Evigan, Ivan Moody, Marc Senter and Shawn 'Clown' Crahan from Slipknot.
Boseman told THR the film is "more accessible than Repo but also a lot darker than Repo," and promised a roadshow release that will hit 30 cities starting in April, with a companion 13-song album. The tour will also "[turn] venues into environments that tie to the movie and that will encourage audience participation."
Repo! co-writer Terrence Zdunich wrote the music for The Devil's Carnival with Saar Hendelman.
Andrew Pyper's Demonologist Novel Acquired by Universal | Horror Movie, DVD, & Book Reviews, News, Interviews at Dread Central
There aren't many details available at this point, but it's just come across the wire that Universal has acquired Demonologist, a novel manuscript by Andrew Pyper, to be produced by ImageMovers partners Robert Zemeckis, Jack Rapke, and Steve Starkey.
Per Deadline the studio made a preemptive deal for the film rights with the book set to be released October 11th of this year.
Book Synopsis:
Professor David Ullman is among the world's leading authorities on Christian religion and myth. Not that he's a believer. He sees what he teaches as nothing more than entrenched fiction - the "things that go bump in the mind." It's why when he's offered a trip to Venice to be a consultant on a case study based on his expertise as a "demonologist," he accepts, seeing it as a free vacation for his teenage daughter and himself. But what he witnesses in an attic room at an address amidst the decadent splendor of the old city will change what he believes forever. Terrified, David races back to his hotel. But now he has the unshakable feeling that he is no longer alone. And that the voice that passes from his daughter's lips before she jumps from the hotel's roof belongs to a being he has long studied but until now never thought could ever be real...

Just read it. The man is a goddamned icon, it's the least you could do.
I want to say that I read that demonologist novel, but am not sure! :manybeers:

So just when you think you know exactly where John's story is going to play out in Familiar, Powell flips everything on its side and delivers a third act that would no doubt have David Cronenberg and Frank Henenlotter high-fiving each other in a theater if this were playing on a big screen (and to say anything beyond that would be a disservice to Powell's story).

One man is dead after officials say he fell off of a truck bed.
The Department of Community and Economic Development is trying to raise awareness about Albany programs that help people in need.
Since 1994, funding to services that help the homeless and low income households has been drastically reduced. The organization's budget is being cut another 5%, but leaders are sponsoring various events this week to raise awareness about what they do.
"And a lot of people don't really know the urgency or the benefit of these particular funds in this community," said Shelena Hawkins, Department of Community & Economic Development Interim Director. "Like I said, they are for low and moderate income people, and the city has a poverty issue. And so we know the funding we get is crucial to meeting the needs of those in our community."
On Wednesday, the organization gave a basket of hygiene products to a non-profit organization that helps the homeless.
The department is also releasing an informational video Thursday to educate people about city Block grant funds and services.

Inherited Color Vision Problems
Inherited Color Vision Problems
Most color vision problems are inherited (genetic) problems with the cone cells in the eye. These are the cells that make you able to see color. Inherited color vision problems affect both eyes equally, are usually present at birth, and do not change during a person's life.
The most common color vision problems are inherited problems that make it harder to see red or green, so it becomes difficult to distinguish between shades of these two colors. This type of problem affects about 8% of males and less than 1% of females. A rare type of inherited problem that affects the way a person sees blue and yellow shades occurs equally in men and women.1
Types of inherited color vision problems
There are four main types of inherited color vision problems.
The most common type of color vision problem, called anomalous trichromacy, occurs in people who have all three types of cone cells (for seeing red, green, or blue) but are missing or have an abnormal amount of one type of cone cell, or one type has a flaw in the pigments that the cone cells use to sense color.
Another type of color vision problem, called dichromacy, occurs when one of the three types of cone cells is missing. That is, a person can only see two of the three colors.
The third type of inherited color vision problem, called blue-cone monochromacy, occurs when two of the cone cells (red and green) are missing.
The fourth main type of inherited color vision problem, called achromatopsia, occurs when all three types of cone cells are missing.
Genetics of inherited color vision problems
Most color vision problems are inherited flaws in the genes that control the production of the cone pigments of the cone cells in the eye that see color.
The genes for the cone cells involved in seeing red and green colors are on the X chromosome. Females have two X chromosomes. Males have only one X chromosome and a Y chromosome, and they receive their X chromosome from their mother.
The genes for the cone pigments involved in seeing blue colors are not on the X chromosome but on a non-sex chromosome that both males and females have. This means blue color vision problems occur equally often in males and females. But these types of color vision problems are relatively rare.

When he became head of Albania's Central Election Commission in February 2001, Ilirjan Celibashi faced a difficult task. Three years earlier a new constitution enshrined the commission as a non-political body charged with overseeing Albania's historically troubled elections. The permanent commission aimed to promote bipartisan cooperation and restore trust in the political system after violence gripped Albania's capital, Tirana, in the wake of 1996 national elections that the international community labeled as fraudulent. During its first three years, the commission failed to achieve substantial reforms largely because of the partisan leadership of its chairman. When Celibashi, a former lawyer and judge, took over as head of the CEC, he had to overcome a highly politicized environment, and he set out to enact reforms to restore confidence in the commission and the electoral process. His reforms concentrated on four priority areas: staffing the CEC with competent people, ensuring transparency for the commission's activities, assembling voter lists and overseeing local election commissioners. In 2008, the political parties removed the commission from the constitution and reinstated it as a political body, erasing most of Celibashi's reforms. The case provides insight into how and why a window of opportunity opened for reform, explores how an individual was able to enact changes in a highly politicized environment and considers reasons why the changes were short-lived.

"GreenMyApple" — a brilliant online campaign from Greenpeace
I've been brewing this post for a while, ever since learning (via Kathy Sierra) about Greenpeace's GreenMyApple.org campaign. From the minute I laid eyes on it, I was quite literally green with envy. This seems as good a time as any to start a practice of techcrunch-style reviews of online advocacy websites.
Summary: Audacious, innovative and pitch-perfect in a way that many progressive groups haven't yet figured out how to do (messaging is positive and constructive; Apple's not portrayed as a black-and-white villain) GreenMyApple is one of the strongest uses of the social web that I've seen, nonprofit or otherwise. Its design is provocative, witty, and as slick as its target's. It integrates into the social-web ecosystem in many different ways — "tag us via del.icio.us," "upload your own video," "blog and use this technorati tag," etc — that haven't yet spread beyond a small number of early adopters but have great potential for generating buzz. Greenpeace deserves a lot of credit for investing in new ideas that as yet don't come with a "best-practices" handbook and haven't yet been benchmarked. As Gillo notes, Greenpeace is "asking the public to be the creative mind of the campaign" — they've rolled out a great vehicle, saying "run with it — this campaign will go as far as you take it." I hope the campaign's creators get to watch it really take off (it's done at least reasonably well in its first month, far as I can tell), and I'lll be watching closely.
And one other important detail: although look-and-feel and messaging are polished to high gloss, the site is, from a technical standpoint, quite simple. It cannot have been too expensive to build (20K-30K would be my guess). Great job getting a cutting-edge advocacy site out there within what were no doubt limited means, and proof that moxie, creativity, and agile-development principles are more important than a huge budget.
Look & Feel: The design has edge and cojones — it perfectly apes the signature look of the Apple website; tabs read "iTox & iWaste | .mAct | ProCreate | iPush";  it looks as clean and beautiful as the Apple site (falling short on this count would, I think, have undermined the campaign's impact — as with content, you want to send the message that Macbooks and iPods could be built green without losing one iota of coolness — they wouldn't have to step back and lose function or beauty.)
Functionality: GreenMyApple is eye-openingly simple — It's a flat site, no nifty social-software applications built into it — no video sharing app, for example, nor even integration with a video-sharing service such as YouTube. But it achieves a participatory, knit-into-the-web-ecosystem feel nonetheless, by:Â
- inviting user-submitted content — suggestions include sending in a t-shirt design, a mock Steve Jobs speech, a roll-your-own video advertisement; advice on submitting is just "put it (your image or video) up on the web somewhere, and send us the link (via this simple html form)
- displaying that content – there's a smallish galleries of user-submitted t-shirt designs. (it's slim pickins so far; more below on this point.)
- encouraging the use of social-web sites to spread word. The iPush section makes a lot of suggestions — blog about this, send to del.icio.us, digg it, add to your StumbleUpon favorites, etc. These are really easy things to do, and they definitely create the possibility of buzz….
- feeding social-web conversation back onto the site. The iBuzz section of the site features Technorati keyword search for "greenmyapple" tag, and del.icio.us search for same — why don't more sites do this? A first-time visitor gets the impression that people are talking about the site; bloggers and social-bookmarkers, seeing their own words and online actions mirrored back to them on the greenmyapple site, again get the message that Greenpeace truly values their active participation in the site.
Messaging: One of the great failures of the environmental movement is that, in the collective mind, an expection has accrued over the years that what you'll hear from an environmental group is strictly gloom-and-doom, blame, negativity. People expect a finger-wagging "no," an exhortation to scale back or change one's lifestyle in some way that's going to make the day-to-day a little harder.
GreenMyApple, in contrast, is — with partial success — framed as a positive campaign, a site by, and for, people who love Apple products. It targets the company's most passionate users, its customer evangelists, people who love their Macs so much they're willing to talk until the cows come home about how much better they are than wintel machines. The first words you see are:
I love my Mac. I just wish it came in green.
That's perfect.
The one significant criticism I have of this campaign site is that the positivity mostly stops there. I think the site could have been even more compelling if Greenpeace had paired that message with a distilled message about how Apple might go about building that green Mac. (That's called "constructive criticism," and there oughtta be an advocacy-communications law — no matter how difficult it may be to do so, find a way to offer your criticism within the frame "there is a better way, specifically solutions x, y, and z.") I think Greenpeace could win over a lot more of the techies who love Apple if the site conveyed, front and center, something with the feel "c'mon, Steve, you make such a fuss about what a cutting-edge company Apple is, but why aren't you using these ready-to-go technologies and alternatives to using toxics?" The tech audience is optimistic to the point of utopianism — they believe that every problem is solvable, if only you apply yourself to figuring it out. I don't actually know what those technological fixes might be in this case, but I betcha there are computer scientists and policy experts who could speak to the topic.Â

Adult Nonfiction HV5805.C356 A3 2008
Summary: "In one sense, my story is a common one, a white boy misdemeanant who lands in a ditch and is restored to sanity through the love of his family, a God of his understanding and a support group that will go unnamed. But if the whole truth is told, it does not end there. "The book will be fundamentally different than a tell-all, or more commonly, tell-most. It will be a rigorously clear-eyed reported memoir in which the process of discovery will be part of the narrative motor...For instance, my brother asked if I was going to give him credit for bailing me out after I was arrested for possession of pot as an 18-yr.-old in a Wisconsin state park. I had not even remembered the incident. "You remember the story you can live with, not the one that happened."

The following is a guest column for Complinet by Judith Gross, the principal and founder of JG Advisory Services. She develops compliance training for hedge funds, specializing in compliance and related topics, such as insider trading. The views expressed are her own.
Compliance regulations couldn't get any more press coverage than they do today, given the almost daily raft of new SEC and Treasury rules. Putting the proposed and actual laws aside, however, have you ever stopped to wonder what the backbone of compliance law is?
The answer is the US Sentencing Guidelines, which were enacted in 1991 and later amended in 2004. These Guidelines set forth the sentencing recommendations for a variety of criminal offenses, including those for "organizations," such as a hedge fund. Thus, if a hedge fund is convicted of engaging in criminal conduct, the court looks to these Sentencing Guidelines for a recommendation on penalties. (more…)

Sounds pretty good, but I'm sure much like the regular Air, the price point will keep me away from it.
Price point and too small of a display keep me away. Make a 15" damnit.
SSD card sounds pretty awesome, but the price doesn't justify to be good for me.
If it brings down the price, I'm all for it.
MBA and the high price just don't make sense. Less of a laptop (size/weight)=Cheaper price
SSD should be the only option in the MBA... I like how Apple recently put the SSD model in front of the HDD model on the website, even though its $300 more.
Im a fan of keeping the 13" display. There really is no need to touch the price, its priced perfectly if you ask me. Id rather them put more features in it than drop the price.
The MBA is a great notebook, ive been using one as my portable/beater for a few years and its great. Thinner and lighter than the specs would make you think, with a great display, backlight keyboard, fair battery life, and snappy enough performance. However, after 2 1/2 years, my hinge is getting fairly weak and it dosent support itself well with heavy turbulence on a plane. It wiggles all over the place and wants to fall down. But thats about it...
Too pricey for what it is even though I have a 17" mbp. If they realign all the MacBook prices and stick this one around the entry level mbp, I think it'd sell more.
Sent from my iPhone using ModMyi
That **** sucks pffff! Rather get a mbp and I bet this thing would cost almost as much a mbp too lol.
Am I missing something? They've had SSD MBAs for years now. What is so special about this?
The MBA is never going to be the cheap laptop, it's going to be the expensive/thin/lightweight/not as powerful option for those that can afford it and that really want their laptop to be as thin and light as possible.
And those of you talking price; Engadget posted an article yesterday with sources claiming the 11.6" model will be "significantly cheaper" than the current versions of the MBA.
I for one prefer the smaller screen size. I miss my 12" iBook screen now that I have the MBP 13. If this is cheaper and has a decent hard drive size (256 or so), I'll be on it like white on rice.
Still need the DVD drive for me
I hope they make an 11 in
The DVD drive is really not needed. I'd like to see a 12 + hr battery life i3 processor 4gig ram 500 gig HD and price point around a $1k. I also like the 13". Anything smaller is blah...
Those of you hating on the MBA...how about, don't buy one? Seriously--Apple is giving people choices. People like choice. To be perfectly honest, if I wasn't a poor college student, I'd prefer to have a Mac Pro and MBA. I only have a MBP because I'm always everywhere with my computer.
I wonder how much it will cost. Probably still over 1k so it won't compete with the high end ipads.

In the back and forth between Congress and the White House over immigration, both sides seem to agree that people now in the U.S. illegally should wait at "the back of the line" for legal residency — meaning no green card until all other immigrants get theirs.
But that presents a problem, because the wait for a green card can take decades.
Maria has been waiting in line with her husband for 16 years and counting for what the government calls a priority date for legal residency. Because she is in the U.S. without documents, Maria asked NPR to use only her first name.
Her story, though, is typical: Maria's mother-in-law is a U.S. citizen. So Maria's husband, who was born in Mexico, is eligible for a green card. While he's waiting, he is in the U.S. illegally, running a small construction business and, Maria says, paying taxes. When her husband gets his green card, Maria can apply for one.
But their lawyer, Mo Goldman, says it will be awhile longer before applicants from 1997 are eligible.
"The date that they're currently processing right now is back to 1993 — and it doesn't move," he says.
In other words, grown Mexican-born sons and daughters of U.S. citizens are at the front of the line for permanent legal residency after applying two decades ago. Different family categories have different "lines" — spouses wait less time than siblings. Different job categories also have different lines — college graduates wait less time than lower-skilled workers.
"So it turns out there are many lines," says Hiroshi Motomura, a law professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, who is writing a book on the immigration system. "There's something certainly questionable in the logic of a system that, on the one hand, says you qualify, but … you have to wait 20 years."
Lawyer Goldman says this isn't the way it was a century ago when immigrants came through Ellis Island.
"It's apples and oranges," he says. "There's no way of comparing that because we didn't have this quota system. People got off a boat, you know, they were processed through, they got their medical examination and … they became permanent residents."
That is, if you were from Europe. If not, it was tough to immigrate even back then.
So in the 1960s, Congress tried to make things more fair by granting an equal number of green cards for each country. That means there are country quotas now, on top of all those family and employment categories. But some countries are larger than others — or, as Motomura says, they have more people who want to immigrate because of geography or political and economic ties.
"Right now, those countries are China, India, Mexico and the Philippines," he says. "So if you're from those countries, you have to wait longer."
The total estimated backlog for legal immigration is 4 million people. And Motomura thinks that long wait may have fueled illegal immigration.
That's what Stuart Anderson thinks, too. He was an immigration official during the George W. Bush administration and is now with the nonpartisan National Foundation for American Policy, a Virginia think-tank.
Anderson says people who need jobs or want to join their family won't endure a two-decade wait.
"The combination of that with increased border enforcement has led people to come in illegally and then end up staying once they got into the country because it's become more difficult to cross in the first place," Anderson says.
That brings us back to Maria and her husband from Mexico. They crossed and stayed in Tucson, Ariz., illegally at the same time his mother applied for him to live in the U.S. legally. And here's the kicker: Goldman, their lawyer, says if they do leave the United States and get caught coming back, the law automatically adds another 10 years to their wait.
"I stay here," Maria says. "I never come back to Mexico," even after deaths in her family.
Maria and her husband are not about to lose their place in line, even if they don't know how long the line is.
It's why almost everyone pushing an immigration overhaul says any new law has to ease the current backlog of legal green card applicants before putting the estimated 11 million undocumented in line behind them.

What gender gap?
Less than two weeks out from Election Day, Republican Mitt Romney has erased President Barack Obama's 16-point advantage among women, a new Associated Press-GfK poll shows. And the president, in turn, has largely eliminated Romney's edge among men.
Those churning gender dynamics leave the presidential race still a virtual dead heat, with Romney favored by 47 percent of likely voters and Obama by 45 percent, a result within the poll's margin of sampling error, the survey shows.
After a commanding first debate performance and a generally good month, Romney has gained ground with Americans on a number of important fronts, including their confidence in how he would handle the economy and their impressions of his ability to understand their problems.
At the same time, expectations that Obama will be re-elected have slipped: Half of voters now expect the president to win a second term, down from 55 percent a month earlier.
For all of the good news for Republicans, however, what matters most in the election endgame is Romney's standing in the handful of states whose electoral votes still are up for grabs. And polls in a number of those battleground states still appear to favor Obama.
As the election nears, Romney has been playing down social issues and trying to project a more moderate stance on matters such as abortion in an effort to court female voters. The AP-GfK poll, taken Friday through Tuesday, shows Romney pulling even with Obama among women at 47-47 after lagging by 16 points a month earlier.
But now his campaign is grappling with the fallout from a comment by a Romney-endorsed Senate candidate in Indiana, who said that when a woman becomes pregnant during a rape "that's something God intended."
Romney quickly distanced himself from the remark by Republican Richard Mourdock. But Obama campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the incident was "a reminder that a Republican Congress working with a Republican President Mitt Romney would feel that women should not be able to make choices about their own health care."
A renewed focus on social issues would be an unwelcome development for Romney: Among female likely voters, 55 percent say Obama would make the right decisions on women's issues, compared with 41 percent who think Romney would.
Romney's pitch to women has been focused squarely on the economy, making the case that what women want most is to ensure their families and their country are on a solid financial footing. The poll shows that message appears to be taking root.
A month ago, women favored Obama over Romney on the economy 56 percent to 40 percent. Now, the split has shifted to 49 percent for Romney and 45 percent for Obama.
Similarly, Obama's lead among women as the candidate who better understands the people's problems has narrowed considerably, from a 58-36 Obama advantage last month to a 50-43 Obama edge now.
Monica Jensen, a 55-year-old independent from Mobile, Ala., says she voted for Obama in 2008 but will shift her vote to Romney this time, largely because of the economy.
"I'm ready for a change," she said. "I want to see the economy go in a different direction."
Ginny Lewis, a Democrat and 72-year-old retired district attorney from Princeton, Ky., says she'll vote for Romney because "I'm tired of the Republicans blaming all the debt on Democrats, so let them take over and see what they do."
Not that she's optimistic about how that will turn out, though. "I think things will get worse before they get better," she said.
Lindsey Hornbaker, a 25-year-old graduate student and nanny, hasn't been swayed by Romney's charm offensive.
Hornbaker, interviewed Wednesday in Davenport, Iowa, where she was attending an Obama rally, said Romney can tweak his tone but not what she sees as a record focused far more on top income earners and out of touch with most working families.
"I heard him go out of his way to sound so moderate during the debate," she said. "And I thought: 'Who is this? Where did this come from?' He may sound like he's focused on the middle class. But where's the record?"
Obama, meanwhile, has been working to shore up his support among men, who tend to be more Republican than women. In the 2008 election, men broke 49 percent for Obama to 48 percent for John McCain, even though Obama got 53 percent of the vote overall. The president's job approval ratings among men have tended to fall below his ratings among women throughout his first term.
A month ago, Romney's advantage among men was 13 percentage points. Now, it's down to 5 points, with most of the shift toward Obama coming among unmarried men.
Obama's election chances hinge on turning out voters like Jon Gerton, a disabled construction worker from Jonesboro, Ark. Gerton's a staunch Obama supporter — but he didn't vote in 2008.
"It takes longer than four years to get things to the point where things are going better," Gerton said. "Four years, it's not very long."
There has been a gender gap in every presidential election since 1980. In 2008, women were 7 percentage points more likely than men to vote for Obama.
Overall, people are significantly more optimistic about the economy and unemployment in the coming year than they have been at any point in AP-GfK polling going back to March 2011, when the poll first started asking those questions. And likely voters are even more optimistic than other adults.
Nearly six in 10 likely voters think the economy will improve in the next year, up from 46 percent last month. And 42 percent think the number of unemployed Americans will drop in the next year, up from 32 percent in September.
Count Chrysta Walker, of Cedar Lake, Ind., among the voters who are sticking with Obama because they think he's got the right solutions for the fragile economy.
"He's got the middle class at heart," says the 58-year-old Walker. On the economy, she says, Obama "did as well as could be expected because he didn't get a lot of cooperation."
David Bierwirth, who owns an autograph sales business in Las Vegas, turned out at a Romney rally in Henderson this week to show his support for the GOP nominee. To Bierwirth, his vote for Romney is all about the economy.
"I want people back to work," he says, "because then they will buy my products."
The Associated Press-GfK poll was conducted Oct. 19-23 by GfK Roper Public Affairs & Corporate Communications. It involved landline and cellphone interviews with 1,186 adults nationwide, including 839 likely voters. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points; for likely voters it is 4.2 points.

One Response to "Gender gap? We don't have no stinkin' gender gap"
Gov. Romney is telling everybody that he is a Moderate and will never allow abortions to be prohibited. The man is a damned liar! His first bit of business will be to remove Roe vs Wade as he knows the House and Senate have already approved of it.
Within 2 years, America will be a full blown Christian nation. I've heard these threats since the end of WW2 when the Birch Society started the movement. It always depends on the Supreme Court and when the new judges are appointed by Romney the damage will have been done.
I have paid close attention to this issue and have tried all these years to put a stop to this nonsense. I've read enough about the inquisition movement that nearly destroyed Europe. Spain, France and Italy were nearly obliterated under the movement and North and South America will be next.
It seems that Americans want bigger paychecks in return for a loss of freedoms. We all know that wars are good for employment and sacrificing our young men and women needn't worry as there will be jobs, jobs, jobs.
The defense contracts that make men like Romney rich will be good for America except the money invested in church charities will only make Romney richer and richer.
When I looked into the growing cult of my family faith, I didn't believe that intelligent Americans would buy it and I was wrong. They lapped it up by the thousands and sure enough the Mormons grew as strong as the Manson Family. One of these days the truth of this cult will be exposed and all those smiling white men who become missionaries will be exposed for the cowards they really are. The are good at starting wars but seldom serve in any of them.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I was torn trying to decide between all the different designs. I finally settled on this one in the darker tones for a fall wedding. They are absolutely stunning and I would highly recommend getting the pearlized feature. It gives it that extra bit of "fancy" for being a more informal invitation. The designer even helped me add my parent's names to this invitation when I thought there wouldn't be any room."
"I fell in the love with the design when I saw it online, and after receiving a sample - I knew it was the one I wanted! The paper is very elegant and feels expensive! I love this romantic autumn card!"
"The paper quality is very good and the printing is excellent. Shipping is very fast even in Italy and the staff of Wedding Paper Divas is really nice and helpful. I would recommend anyone to purchase on this website! My vote is EXCELLENT, I love Wedding Paper Divas."
"This card was wonderful! The colors are exactly as shown, and the printing is rich and of good quality. The textured paper adds a nice touch that makes the card look and feel classy. The paper is thick and durable. I ordered mine with rounded edges, which I think makes them look simple and beautiful. Great product all around!"
"The quality of the paper and printing was superb. If you are looking for a traditional and elegant invitation suite, this is definitely it. We added additional text to the response card with no issue and received our promptly. Can't say enough good things about these!"

Bok duo boost Cheetahs
Johan Goosen and Coenie Oosthuizen have given the Cheetahs a boost with news that the Bok duo will be fit for the start of the Super Rugby season.
The Cheetahs' fly-half and prop were both sidelined through ankle and neck injuries respectively last year, but are set to feature in the Bloemfontein-based side's opening clash against the Sharks on Februry 23.
"Coenie has been undergoing rehabilitation and its going very well so far," coach Naka Drotske told supersport.
"He hasn't scrummed yet and hasn't taken a lot of contact, but we're sure he will be ready. He has to be given the go-ahead by the specialist, but if he says he is ready, then he will be."
Drotske is also hoping to have star full-back Willie le Roux (groin), flank Lappies Labuschagne (ankle) and number eight Phillip van der Walt back in action, with former Bok flank Heinrich Brussow also pushing to be fit for the start of the season.

Our son started at ACE when he was four. He is completing his third year at the school. We were sold on the program because of the integrated curriculum, small class sizes, and excellent teachers. I consider our decision to send our son to ACE one of the best decisions we have made. The small class sizes facilitate teacher student interaction and allow students to move at their own pace as they learn to read and do math. The curriculum is excellent. My favorite part of the curriculum is that over a period of four years the students review history from the ancient civilizations to modern ones. The history lessons are woven into their reading and writing lessons. In the subsequent four years they repeat the process with increasingly depth. Best of all, our son loves learning and enjoys school.
A small, private school on Houston's westside, that offers an outstanding academic program. Based on a classical curriculum, the children are encouraged to explore and advance at their rate. They are learning critical thinking and writing skills, how to organize themselves, and impressive language skills. The teachers, Miss Janet and Miss Dawn, are dedicated and passionate about what they do. They visit a library or bookstore twice a month, have hands-on field trips. The schoold offers a variety of after school activities including foreign language, musical theatre, chess club, music appreciation to name a few. We have been very happy with this school and the progress out children have achieved.

Georgia's Response
Gulie Arad, author of America, Its Jews and the Rise of Nazism stated that the pre- World War II American-Jewish community had little self-confidence, a frustrated leadership, and only indirect avenues to political influence. This was especially true in the American South and particularly in Atlanta. The Atlanta community was still reacting to, and recovering from, the 1914 Leo Frank case. The remnant Jewish community had been beset by a number of misfortunes, including a revival of the Klan in the 1910s and 1920s and being considered scapegoats for communism and the onset of the Great Depression. Although there was concern about the plight of European Jews during the 1930s, Atlanta's Jewish community was not anxious to bring attention to Jewish issues in a political climate that was saturated with overt antisemitism. The economic problems of the period also meant that the primary concerns for most American Jews were achieving material and financial security for themselves and their families.
However, Atlanta's Jewish community was not completely apathetic during this time. Local organizations such the Atlanta Section of the National Council of Jewish Women and the Hebrew Orphans Home tried to help the unaccompanied minors who immigrated to Georgia. Individuals like Harold Hirsch tried to raise money to help the European Jews who had been reduced to penury by the Nazi regime.
When the war ended in 1945 and the full impact of the Holocaust became apparent, Atlanta's Jewish community almost certainly wished it had done more. However, the individuals and organizations that worked tirelessly from 1933-1942 could feel proud of what was accomplished. Namely, the lives of the men, women, and children who benefited from their efforts, and were saved when so many others perished.

What are bursitis symptoms and signs?
Comment on this Read 3 Comments
The symptoms of bursitis are directly related to the degree of inflammation present in the bursa and the location of the bursa involved. The inflamed bursa can cause localized pain and tenderness. If the bursa is so inflamed that swelling occurs, it can cause local swelling and stiffness, sometimes associated with local redness and warmth. The inflammation can make it painful to support body pressure. For example, hip bursitis can make it difficult to lay on the affected side of the hip. As another example, bursitis of the inner knee (anserine bursitis) can make it painful to lie with the knees touching each other.
How is bursitis diagnosed?
Comment on this Read 1 Comment
Bursitis is typically identified by localized pain or swelling, tenderness, and pain with motion of the tissues in the affected area. X-ray testing can sometime detect calcifications in the bursa when bursitis has been chronic or recurrent. While MRI scanning can be used to identify bursitis, it is not always necessary.
What is the treatment for bursitis?
Comment on this Read 17 Comments
The treatment of any form of bursitis depends on whether or not it involves infection. Bursitis that is not infected (from injury or underlying rheumatic disease) can be treated with ice compresses, rest, and anti-inflammatory and pain medications. Occasionally, it requires aspiration of the bursa fluid. This office procedure involves removal of the fluid with a needle and syringe under sterile conditions. It can be performed in the doctor's office. Sometimes the fluid is sent to the laboratory for further analysis. Noninfectious bursitis can also be treated with a cortisone injection into the swollen bursa. This is sometimes done at the same time as the aspiration procedure and typically rapidly reduces the inflammation of the swollen bursa.
Infectious (septic) bursitis requires even further evaluation and aggressive treatment. The bursal fluid can be examined in the laboratory to identify the microbes causing the infection. Septic bursitis requires antibiotic therapy, sometimes intravenously. Repeated aspiration of the infected fluid may be required. Surgical drainage and removal of the infected bursa sac (bursectomy) may also be necessary. Generally, the adjacent joint functions normally after the surgical wound heals.

Since some tools are best sharpened
with the stone running toward the edge, and others with the stone
running away from the edge, Tormek has introduced the Rotating BaseRB-180, which allows you to rotate your Tormek sharpening machine 180
degrees to select the ideal sharpening direction, or to switch from
sharpening to honing. The RB-180 has rubber feet to keep it steady
during sharpening and absorb vibration. It automatically locks into
position. The platform is designed within a frame, manufactured as
thin as possible so as not to affect working height. The RB-180 will
fit the Tormek T-7 and T-3, the 2000 and 1200 Series, and ht eSA-250
and N-1500. The manufacturer's recommended price is $55.

Hi there
Firstly I'd like to say I LOVE this plugin. There is however a base function I would like to exclude/block from happening and I'm not certain how to accomplish this.
When a review is posted by the user it is then posted to both the site's primary activity stream as well as the individual group's activity stream.
How do I prevent either from occurring? I'd like to only show on the Reviews screen within that group, nowhere else.

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - The second of two big apartment complexes in downtown Green Bay is getting closer to reality.
The Redevelopment Authority approved a development agreement with Dermond Group to build a seven story complex on the site of the parking lot currently being used by Nicolet Bank along the Fox River.
The site at Washington and Walnut will be called Metreau and will include 93 units along with retail space.
Dermond wants to begin construction by December.
This is the second large riverfront apartment complex to move forward in recent months.
At the end of April, the City Deck Commons was approved. It's an 84-unit mixed-use complex with two levels of underground parking. The ground floor is dedicated for retail use.
The city council will vote on the Metreau development agreement at next Tuesday's meeting.

Members of the Minot Air Force Base and the Magic City came together today for a unique fundraiser.Staff Sergeants Cody Lytle and Josh Heidemann created an event to raise money military veterans with disabilities. Teams of three are taking turns flipping an 800 pound tire from the Base Gate to ASK Fitness, almost 11 miles away. The group expects the event to last anywhere from 18 to 24 hours averaging 6 to 10 tire flips per minute. All of the proceeds raised will go to the Cleb McClary Evangelistic Association. From there, the money will be given to veterans in need. "To do this for him is spectacular. We weren't in Vietnam going through that hardship. At least we can say we're going through a hardship here flipping this 800 pound tire for 10.7 miles for him and everybody else who cannot do this for him," says Staff Sgt. Lytle. Anyone still interested in joining the tire flipping event can contact Staff Sergeant Lytle at 240-506-0984. It only costs five dollars to help flip the tire the rest of the evening. The 800 pound tire is scheduled to be on display next Friday at the North Dakota State Fair.

Irene R. Reynolds, who has been held in prison for two years since the Southeastern Connecticut Cold Case Unit charged her with murdering her mother in 1993, will go on trial later this month in New London Superior Court.
Defense attorney Linda J. Sullivan filed a speedy trial motion on Monday. Judge Susan B. Handy granted the motion on Tuesday, compelling the state to begin presenting evidence within 30 days.
Jury selection will begin Oct. 29 before Judge Arthur C. Hadden, Handy said. The state will begin presenting evidence on Nov. 26. State's Attorney Michael L. Regan is prosecuting the case.
Reynolds has rejected an offer to plead guilty to the lesser charge of first-degree manslaughter in exchange for a sentence of 20 years, suspended after 10 years served and five years probation. Had she accepted the offer, her attorney would have had the right to argue for a shorter prison term at her sentencing.
Bertha Reynolds, 60, was found at the bottom of a basement staircase in her home at 84 Laurel Hill Ave., Norwich, on July 9, 1993. The state Office of the Chief Medical Examiner said she had died of blunt head trauma and ligature strangulation.
The case went unsolved for 17 years until the cold case unit obtained a videotaped statement from a former friend of Irene Reynolds. The woman, Kim Stone, told police she saw Reynolds attack her mother after the two fought about money. Reynolds had been adopted by Jim and Bertha Reynolds as an infant.
Stone will be a key witness at the upcoming trial, and Reynolds' attorney is expected to attempt to discredit her testimony. Sullivan has requested that the trial judge review information about counseling that Stone was undergoing at the time of the crime.
According to the arrest warrant in the case, Stone was interviewed by police on several occasions throughout the years, each time revealing more information. Stone told police that she didn't fully disclose what she had witnessed because she did not want to get in trouble for not stopping the attack.

Records continue to fall in terms of oil production in North Dakota
Over 940-thousand barrels of oil were produced a day in October.
Records were also set for the month in terms of the number of producing wells and the amount of natural gas captured.
Director of Mineral Resources Lynn Helms says despite the high numbers he considers production "lack-luster" compared to what was expected.
Extreme cold weather had something to do with it.
Helms also says the fall in oil prices--from 93 dollars a barrel in September to around 73 dollars today--is forcing companies to make decisions to save money.
We've seen a complete turn-a-round in the movement of oil shifting back towards the rail. The rail capacity is there, rail transport facilities have the capacity as I stated to the legislature yesterday, they could move 90% of a million barrels a day if they needed to," says Director of Mineral Resources Lynn Helms.
In fact, for the first time over 700,000 barrels of oil were shipped by rail in October.
Helms also said today the state Flaring Task force would release its findings at the end of January.
Results of their research to reduce flaring were expected this month.

wonderful scent Perfect perfume for daily activities or a night on the town. July 26, 2014
Can't go without it! Me, my husband and my friends all agree, this is the perfect summery scent. light and lovely! July 11, 2014
Magnificent!! Subtle and Serene is how I would describe this fragrance. It simply takes you away. Great buy!! June 14, 2014
Not as described I thought this would be light and a bit more flowery by the description. It was much to earthy and wintery for me. I gave it to my daughter. So disappointed. I do wear the original Tommy which I love so I guess I made a mistake on this one. June 6, 2014
I really enjoy wearing this perfume. This perfume is light and sweet. It has slightly strong perfume smell/taste that can be "bruised" to allow the sweet smell you initially smell to shine through. I wear this perfume at the hospital and it is light enough as to not bother the patients. Pleasant every day perfume to wear. Bring the beach with you wherever you go. April 9, 2014
Compliments galore! Every time I wear this perfume, I get compliments from men and women! It's definitely my favorite fragrance and the only one I will wear! Love it! April 7, 2014
Wonderful scent! Typical Tommy Bahama style! Wonderful mild citrus scent that is perfect for all occasions. My wife loves it! Highly recommended! February 3, 2014
We compliment each other! We wear for her, and him we compliment each other. January 29, 2014
