The 5 best gas rewards credit cards
The right rewards card can reduce the burden of rising prices at the pump.
This post comes from Odysseas Papadimitriou at CardHub.com.
Those savings might at first seem pedestrian, but people buy gas rather frequently and high gas prices aren't likely to be short-lived. The U.S. Energy Information Administration projects that the price of regular gas will average $3.57 a gallon for the rest of the year -- slightly higher than the $3.55-a-gallon average during 2012, the most expensive year for gas ever.
Considering that 2011 previously held that cost crown, having the right gas rewards card figures to be increasingly important moving forward.
There are two types of gas rewards credit cards:
- Those tied to specific station chains.
- Those that allow you to earn points or cash back wherever you fill up.
The former historically offered the most value, but given their inherently limited usage capability, the latter segment has in recent years turned the tables. Consider the rewards offered by the following cards, which Card Hub selected from more than 1,000 overall offers as providing the most significant savings on gas.
Pentagon Federal Credit Union Platinum Rewards Card
Gas rewards:5% cash back at any station.
Other highlights: 3% cash back at supermarkets and 1% everywhere else.
Fees: No annual fee, but you may have to pay a one-time $15 fee to join the Pentagon Federal Credit Union.
Blue Cash Preferred Card from American Express
Gas rewards: 3% cash back at any station.
Other highlights: 6% cash back at supermarkets and 1% everywhere else; $150 initial bonus if you spend $1,000 in the first three months.
Fees:$75 annual fee.
TrueEarnings Card from Costco and American Express
Gas rewards: 3% cash back on all gas purchases up to $4,000 (1% thereafter).
Other highlights: 2% cash back at restaurants, 2% on travel, and 1% on everything else.
Fees:Free for Costco members.
Marathon Credit Card
Gas rewards:25-cent rebate for each gallon of Marathon gas purchased during months you charge at least $1,000, 15-cent rebate for spending $500 to $999.99, and 5-cent rebate for spending less than $500.
Other highlights: not applicable.
Fees: None.
Chevron & Texaco Credit Card
Gas rewards:30 cents a gallonoff Chevron and Texaco gas for the first 60 days, 20 cents off when you spend more than $1,000 in a given month, and 10 cents off when you spend $300 to $1,000. You can earn and redeem a maximum of $300 in discounts each calendar year.
Other highlights: not applicable.
Fees: None.
When it comes to picking one of these cards, the most important considerations are your current spending habits and your credit standing. You don't want to apply for a credit card affiliated with a particular station chain if you don't exclusively get gas there or could easily begin to do so.
Furthermore, you can avoid costing yourself time and effort on a rejected credit card application by simply making sure you have the requisite good or excellent credit beforehand.
It's also important to note the value of strategic grocery shopping and smartphone application use. It's becoming common for major supermarket and gas station chains to team up on loyalty programs. For example, Safeway shoppers earn discounts on ExxonMobil gas, and Giant and Kroger have a similar relationship with Shell. Shopping at one of those stores can supercharge your savings.
The same can be said for using an app like GasBuddy to find the cheapest gas prices in your area before using your gas rewards card to further lower your costs.
Ultimately, regardless of exactly how your gas rewards plan shapes up, it's clear that giving a bit of thought to how you pay at the pump will ensure that amount is as low as possible.

Woodworker's Journal
Nevertheless, we're passing his advice on to you because Ross has some important points to make about furniture design and how he approaches the design process. "If you're interested in developing any design sense, you can't rely on anyone else to tell you what to do. Take a few chances and see what happens," says Ross, a professional furniture maker in Hanover, Minnesota.
A quick look at Ross's designs will convince you he knows something about creating original pieces of furniture. But he didn't get his eye for design from a school or from emulating any one particular genre of woodworking. He's completely self-taught both in woodworking and as a designer, learning most of what he knows from books, magazines and other artisans.
Besides not relying on woodworking plans, Ross also strongly recommends going to shows, museums and craft fairs if you want to get a good sense of design. And don't just look at the wood art, he says. He finds inspiration in a variety of art forms, including ceramics. "I've built pieces that were inspired by the form I saw in a hand-thrown piece of pottery," says Ross.
"Scandiasian Decocraftsman"At first glance, you might think he was influenced heavily by Frank Lloyd Wright, but Ross confesses he knows little about Wright's work. When asked to describe his style, he calls it "Scandiasian Decocraftsman" because it's such a mix of Scandinavian, Asian, Art Deco and Craftsman styles of furniture. That's what happens when you teach yourself woodworking design (and forego using patterns), so be careful out there.
Ross got involved in woodworking as a hobby back in 1986, but wasn't very serious about it. He finally decided to build himself a professional European workbench in 1990, and that's when the hobby became something more. He entered a piece in the 1994 Northern Wood Show--the only one he thought was even close to presentable--and won an award. He freely admits that "sometimes you're your own worst critic--most of the time, really." That award made him think he could do his brand of woodworking professionally and, in the summer of 1997, he quit his job as an iron worker and went pro.
Now he primarily does commissioned pieces and is part of a woodworker's cooperative that has a shop in Minneapolis. He's on his fifth Lacewood Cabinet (above) but rarely does the same piece that often. He begins designing most pieces by looking first at the space that needs to be filled. He will outline that space on paper and then make his ideas fit in that box. Once he's sketched out the piece of furniture, he makes some guesses about the scale and goes from there. "I guess I just kind of do what my eye tells me," he says. Sometimes, as with his first Lacewood Cabinet, he gets lucky and it works out on the first try.
If forced to choose, Ross says his favorite wood is soft maple. He says that it has more life in it than hard maple and likes the color, the texture, and how well it polishes up. "I like most woods in their own way. Some of them are kind of nasty to work with, but it's worth it because of the results you can get," he says. Wenge, an African wood, is difficult to work with because it's brittle, it's full of slivers and is really hard. But, he adds, it's the only wood that's truly black (besides ebony), so it's worth the extra hassle. He always goes with natural wood colors and never uses stain. "I only work with what I can get from the wood," says Ross.

For the Record
HOS update
FMCSA sends final hours rule to White House after postponing publication date
At press time, the White House Office of Management and Budget was reviewing the final rule for truck drivers' hours of service after receiving the rule from the U.S. Department of Transportation Nov. 1.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration had sent the proposal to U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood for review on Aug. 11.
Under the current proposal, FMCSA is, among other changes, considering whether to reduce the daily driving limit from 11 hours to 10 hours and to limit the 34-hour restart provision by requiring that it include two periods from midnight to 6 a.m. and limiting its use to once per week.
The American Trucking Associations and the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association have said the proposal is costly and unnecessary since studies indicate safety improvements under the 2008 rule.
In 2009, FMCSA had entered into a settlement agreement with safety advocacy groups and the Teamsters union to revisit the 2008 rule and publish a revised rule. This agreement stipulated if the agency produces a "substantially different" rule from the current one, this "may" eliminate the need for further judicial review. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia originally set the Federal Register publication deadline for July 26, which it later extended to Oct. 28.
FMCSA on Oct. 28 announced it would not be able to publish the rule by that day's court-imposed extended deadline. The deadline was extended to Nov. 28.
U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) recently proposed to add language to the transportation appropriations bill (H.R. 2112) that would block the planned changes to the hours-of-service regulations. The measure, Senate Amendment 754, states that "none of the funds made available under this heading may be used to finalize, enforce, or implement the hours-of-service regulations proposed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on December 29, 2010."
The Senate passed H.R. 2112 Nov. 1, sending the bill to House-Senate committee discussion before going to the White House for President Obama's signature.
LaHood sent a letter to Ayotte asking the senator to drop her measure.
In a letter to LaHood dated Oct. 21, ATA President and Chief Executive Officer Bill Graves and Chairman Dan England said LaHood's contention was well off-base. "There is little or no comprehensive up-to-date evidence, data or science supporting FMCSA's proposal," ATA wrote. "FMCSA readily admitted it did not have sufficient data on which to base a driving time limit change, yet the agency argued for and stated it 'currently favors' reducing the limit."
House Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor wrote a letter to Obama Oct. 5 asking the president to withdraw the proposed hours-of-service revision because its costs would hurt the U.S. economy.
Their letter came two weeks after a similar Sept. 23 letter to Obama from House Transportation Committee Chairman John Mica. The Florida Republican wrote that the proposed rule would be an unnecessary and costly regulatory burden on truckers given the improved record of truck safety since the 2008 rule became effective.

Career Profile
Michael joined the School in January 2004 to complete his doctorate after transferring from the University of Western Sydney. He holds an Honours degree in Philosophy and Social Psychology (University of Western Sydney) and a doctorate in Philosophy (Cardiff University).
In November 2005, Michael joined Cesagen (ERSC Centre for Economic and Social Aspects of Genomics) to work on the social and ethical aspects of genomics. He has worked on numerous projects exploring parental accounts of genetic testing; the communication and disclosure of genetic risk in the family; professional accounts of ethical dilemmas in the clinic; and the representation of genetic testing in the public domain. He has also conducted research on psychiatric genetics and interviewed scientists about large-scale collaborative research.
Michael's current research is tracing the subsequent developments of genomic technologies. One branch is pursuing the impact of direct-to-consumer genetic testing and the ways in which lay communities use and interpret genetic information. Another branch is interested in the politics of personalised medicine and the ways in which promises and expectations about the 'new biology' are mediated in expert and public domains. Michael is also interested in public engagement as a means of reflecting upon and participating in the construction of scientific knowledge, perceptions of risk, and the joint imagining of technological futures. A persistent question he asks in relation to his research is: what does it mean to be human?

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) - Fourth-round selection Devonta Freeman says he felt like the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft when he saw the opportunity awaiting him with the Atlanta Falcons.
The former Florida State running back says his path to immediate playing time and a chance to be Atlanta's future starter make him believe he landed with the right team.
Falcons starter Steven Jackson will be 31 when the 2014 season begins. Longtime backup Jason Snelling has retired. Jacquizz Rodgers is still young but has never reached 100 carries in any of his three seasons.
Coach Mike Smith says Freeman has "the chance to be a three-down back" if he proves he can block on pass plays.

13406 E. Philadelphia St. Whittier, CA 90608
Whittier College is pleased to present the exhibit Storytelling by Ihrie Means.
"This exhibit is arranged to give an unedited, non-glorified look at the process of putting together a graphic novel. By bringing my studio into the gallery space visitors will get the chance to see what goes into the making of two very different genres of graphic narrative. The Saltines Are… Getting By, a completed graphic novel, will be displayed in both its finished form and in its various stages of completion. The Saltines… is a dark, humorous look at the unexplored world of saltine crackers. An Apartment for the Disappearer, a graphic novel in progress, will be shown in its current unfinished state. An Apartment… is an intertwined love story centering around two high school students whose lives converge in adulthood in a seemingly very unpleasant way. Both book projects are constructed out of drawings and paintings pieced together into more complex layouts. Visitors to the exhibit will be able to flip through all the rejected layouts, rejected drawings, completed layouts, revisions and sketches. This is an opportunity to see an artist's process. Interaction is encouraged and thoughts and suggestions are welcome."
Means was born in Frederick, MD in 1976. She earned her BFA in Painting from the Maryland Institute, College of Art in 1998 and her MFA in painting and printmaking from Yale School of Art in 2003. She also studied fine-furniture making at the Penland School of Art and Craft. Her studio practice includes intaglio printmaking, sculpture, painting, illustration and video work. Her drawings have appeared in the New Yorker Magazine, in Simon and Schuster's Johnny Appleseed: The Man, The Myth, The American Story and on the covers of Clockroot Book's trilogy of narrative works by Margarita Karapanou. She has also designed album art for Thrill Jockey Records. Her work has been exhibited at Moravian College, Brooklyn Fireproof Gallery and Capsule Gallery, among others. Means teaches video art at the Educational Center for the Arts in New Haven, CT and is an adjunct professor of fine arts at Southern Connecticut State College.

FLOWERY BRANCH – Akeem Dent recognized the area code when it flashed on the screen of his phone.
He knew the 770 met he had a local call and well there's only one team in the NFL with a 770 area code.
"I picked up the phone and I was talking to Arthur Blank and then the head coach," said Dent, the Atlanta native and former Georgia standout from Douglass High. "It was unbelievable."
The Falcons used their third-round pick to select Dent, 91st overall, in the NFL draft late Friday.
He was a Falcons' fan for as long as he came remember.
"I've been here my whole life," Dent said. "I'm proud of this team."
His favorite player is former linebacker Jessie Tuggle, who was also a linebacker from a state school (Valdosta State).
"When he first came in, he was one of those guys they said was under-sized," Dent said. "He had a motor and he had a nose for the football. I feel that I can take some of his game and install it into mine's. I want to be one of those guys around the ball and being productive. "
Dent also had personal tryouts with Baltimore, Jacksonville, Kansas City and the New York Giants.
The Falcons turned down a trade offer from an undisclosed team that was trying to move up and draft Dent.
"I'm just glad to be a Falcon right now," said Dent, who's represented by local agent Hadley Engelhard, of Enter-Sports Management.
Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff said Dent will be expected to contribute on special teams and backup at all of the linebacker spots.
Dent played outside and inside linebacker at Georgia.
"He's a tough, hard-nosed guy who fits our scheme as a (middle) linebacker, but he also has the versatility to play all three positions," Dimitroff said. "He will be a core special teams player for us, which is very important."
The Falcons were also impressed by Dent being one of Georgia's captains and by him attaining his degree in Housing.
"He fits in line as far as what we believe in having the right locker room," Dimitroff said. "He played in the SEC and that speaks for itself. He knows football. He's passionate about football."
Dent was watching the draft with family members when Blank called on behalf of the Falcons.
When he was a redshirt at Georgia, he used to hear stories from the older Bulldogs about Falcons defensive coordinator Brian VanGorder.
"He expects a lot from his players," Dent said. "He expects us to go out and be great."
VanGorder was the defensive coordinator from 2001 to 2004. Willie Martinez, who succeeded VanGorder, used the same terminology so Dent is familiar with the Falcons' calls.
"We found that out during his local workout when we sat him down and got a feel for his football knowledge," Dimitroff said. "Again, that is helpful going into a year that we might be going into as far as maybe being backed up a little bit."
Dent will not have a problem playing special teams.
"I've always had a knack for special teams," Dent said. "I played on all four units when I was Georgia. That's something that I've been doing since I was in high school."
The Falcons liked Dent's versatility.
"If someone goes down, we feel like we have a player who can start if need be," Dimitroff said. "As well, I want to stress him being rated very highly as a core special teams player by not only our scouting staff, but by our special teams coaches."
Dent didn't participate in the linebacker drills at the NFL scouting combine because of a hamstring injury.
He will start out learning the middle linebacker spot.
"Obviously, that's a position that takes a lot of pounding," Dimitroff said. "Curtis Lofton works through a lot and plays through injuries. We had to make sure that we have someone there to improve our depth."
Dimitroff was looking forward to the third day of the draft.
"We believe that you can get players all the way through the draft," Dimitroff said.

um. the falcons have drafted the last 3 georgia middle linebackers. tony taylor, tony gilbert and now akeem dent. taylor and gilbert are no longer with the team. great picks. you don't draft special teamers in the 3rd round. there were plenty of guys that could come in and make an impact right away.
final point on how bad the trade was. do any of you honestly think julio will produce more than dez bryant last year? i highly doubt it and he had jon kitna throwing to him for the better part of the year. i can say its safe to say he didn't make the difference in the cowboys becoming a super bowl contender. you don't trade away all those picks for a wide receiver! i don't care how productive he is, a rookie wr is not the kind of impact player that will lead you to a superbowl!!!
April 30th, 2011
1:58 pm
As I have had time to look at what the team is doing I have concluded that we are being smart as a front office. Due to the CBA situation, and let's be honest this isn't a very deep draft, we have picked up two guys thus far that do not require a heck of a lot of time to adjust to our playbook. Jones is viewed as one of the most NFL ready WRs in this draft which is key since we don't know when these guys will be able to get in a learn the playbook etc.. Then we get Dent who already knows the terms associated with our defensive scheme. Smart dafting. Another point on Dent, which I have not heard mentioned, is that Loften takes a beating and if I am not mistaken didn't he have to have a couple of minor knee surgeries this offseason? If he goes down then our D is screwed and now we have a backup plan.
This draft hasn't went down like I thought but I understand what we are doing.
April 30th, 2011

Ok if we can pick up either Ray Edwards or Charles Johnson (DE), and Jonathan Joseph (CB) and Darren Sproles (RB) we WILL be ready for a Superbowl.

Honest_Abe: maybe you should be the falcons gm. So if the falcons sign a good free agent d.e and draft Julio jones, you still think they would be better off with the draft picks? If you do you know nothing about football. Julio is prob the second best receiver to come out since Calvin Johnson (a.j green being the first). It's amazing that td has to answer to all you people who complain.

I would love to sign Ray Edwards and maybe a Reggie Bush… type back.
How cool would it be to pick up Reggie Bush (himself) now that New Orleans drafted a RB first pick (Reggie tweeted, "It's been great, New Orleans – meaning he thinks he's gone). Be a little like getting Morten Anderson from the Saints when they thought he was through. Imagine Matty Ice throwing to Reggie, Roddy, Gonzo or Julio on any given play.

Honest Abe,
You gotta be kidding me. Comparing us to the Cowboys and Jones to Bryant makes no sense. Bryant is a willfull knucklehead who can play. Jones is a hard worker who can play.
The Cowboys had FAR more problems than the WR position. They had head coach problems, and issues all over the locker room, not to mention on the field. There's a reason why we went to the playoffs and they didn't….

I am amazed at all of the knowledgeable (NOT!!!!) folks on this blog who are able to predict the impact of this year's draft choices on the team. If you're that good at predictions, why aren't you doing more with your time and life other than posting on a Falcons' blog????? Get real!!!

According to people who knew the Palmers, domestic abuse had been going on for years in the Palmer family.
"About six years ago when I was called to Virginia High School to meet with her, she had a broken nose and black eyes," Johnson said. "She appeared to be very scared of her husband and afraid to go back to the situation, but she was also equally scared to not go back."
Then six years later, the abuse still happening, Kristin Palmer told law enforcement about instances of recent abuse.
Kevin was arrested for domestic abuse last week, but then posted bail quickly after and was released. Kathy Johnson, executive director of Abuse Alternative said they urged Kristin to file for an order of protection.
On February 24, the day before Kristin and Griffin died, she filed an order of protection.
"It's extremely hard to monitor that individual, once he's served, basically they're put on notice to not have contact with that individual and again were hoping that they abide by the guidelines of that protective order, that won't happen," Washington County, Va. Sheriff Fred Newman said.
Johnson said they also offered Kristin and Griffin a shelter with a secret location to stay in, but she said Kristin declined.
"If Kristin had chosen shelter services, she might still be alive, and that in no way is placing blame on her for what happened to her," Johnson said. "I think often victims think that because they have a protective order in place, and charges filed, and doing all those things that we inform victims to do there's still a risk or harm to them if the batter knows where they are."
The Sheriff said under the protective order, Palmer wasn't allowed to have weapons, but there's no system in place to search the home or make sure the person doesn't keep their weapons.
"He tormented Kristin and Griffin for years. I think regardless of where she was at, regardless of what she was doing, this is a case where he would have killed her once he found her," Johnson said. "There's only one person to blame in this story and that was Kevin Palmer for what happened."
Johnson said in her twelve years working at the shelter, she's never seen a case where the victim was murdered, let alone family members.
A Glade Spring, Va. man who shot his wife, son, mother-in-law and father-in-law early Tuesday morning before taking his own life, reportedly has a documented history of abuse.On Feb. 19 around 3:36 p.m., arrest warrants were issued by Washington County, Va. Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court to arrest Kevin Dale Palmer, 44, 12131 Deerfield Lane, for abuse of Kristin Griffin Palmer, 46, and Griffin Palmer, 17.According to one warrant, Kevin Palmer had verbally and mentally abused Kristin Palmer on several occasions between Jan. 18 to Feb. 1. He reportedly threw a TV remote control at her and it caused a bruise on her left leg.Kevin Palmer also allegedly pushed Kristin Palmer down a set of stairs.On a second arrest warrant, he was accused of grabbing his son, Griffin Palmer, by the neck and hitting him on the side of the head numerous times on Feb. 2. Griffin Palmer reportedly had a knot on the side of his head following the abuse. It was also reported that Kevin Palmer verbally and mentally abused his son, according to the warrant.On Tuesday, Kristin Palmer, Griffin Palmer and Kristin Palmer's mother, Nancy Griffin, died from their gunshot wounds. Kevin Palmer also died from what authorities believed to be self-inflicted gunshot wounds.Kristin Palmer's father, Terry Griffin, was reported to be in fair condition Tuesday at Bristol Regional Medical Center. News Channel 11 called to check on the status of Terry Griffin's condition Wednesday and a Wellmont spokesperson said there was no information to report.--------------Previous story: Four dead after shooting at Glade Spring, VA home, names of shooting victims releasedA domestic dispute, which allegedly had been ongoing for several weeks, turned deadly in Southwest Virginia early Tuesday morning, resulting in four people killed.The dispute reportedly resulted in a man going to his in-law's home on Graceland Lane in Glade Spring, Va., around 5 a.m., where he reportedly shot and killed his wife, son and mother-in-law. The man then reportedly took his own life.According to a Washington County Sheriff's Office news release, three of the people killed were Kristin Palmer, 46, Griffin Lane Palmer, 17, and Nancy Griffin, 74.The shooter, Kevin Dale Palmer, 44, was also found dead at the scene from what authorities believed to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound.Another shooting victim,Terry Griffin, 75, is reportedly in fair condition at Bristol Regional Medical Center.According to a Washington County, Va. Sheriff's Office news release, Washington County,Va. Central Dispatch received a call from who they said was Griffin Palmer, who allegedly told dispatchers that two people had been shot at 33325 Graceland Lane.The phone was then disconnected and when they called back, Griffin Palmer said he had been shot.When dispatchers asked him where the shooter was, he told them he was still in the house.EMS, the Glade Spring Lifesaving Crew, Washington County Lifesaving Crew and the Washington County Sheriff's Office were called to the home.According to the release, the first officer was at the scene around 5:44 a.m. and found five people had been shot – three people in critical condition and two people were dead.They were taken to Bristol Regional Medical Center. Griffin Palmer died on the way to the hospital and his mom, Kristin Palmer, died at the hospital.Authorities told News Channel 11 earlier Tuesday that Kevin Palmer had forced his way into the Graceland Lane home, armed with a handgun and a rifle. Evidence from the scene also indicated that a struggle had occurred in the home.A shooting victim, later identified as Terry Griffin, was shot in the arm and was able to get to a neighbor's house to call 911.The shooting is believed to be a result of a domestic situation between Kristin and Kevin Palmer, both of 21131 Deerfield Lane in Glade Spring.According to a court affidavit, Kristin Palmer wrote that on Feb.19, her husband, Kevin Palmer, was charged with assaulting her, as well as her son, Griffin Palmer.Kristin Palmer wrote that for the last 7-8 years, Kevin Palmer had been physically, mentally and emotionally abusive to her and her son."Almost daily he verbally assaults both of us," she wrote. "He threatens retaliation when I have tried to leave before by threatening to hurt my father and 'ruin' my life. He has kicked me, strangled me, tried to drown me, slapped me, bit me (and) dragged me by the hair during arguments."According to the affidavit, Kevin Palmer also reportedly kicked, whipped, pulled (Griffin's) hair and hit my child when disciplining him. He also reportedly called Griffin Palmer names.Kristin Palmer said that her husband also reportedly threw objects at her and broke household items."His verbal abuse is extensive and manipulative toward both me and my child," she wrote. "He has even told both of us to kill ourselves and we know where the guns are located. He is extremely volatile toward us whenever we do not adhere to his control. He has controlled us for years. I am continuously scared to be home late, to have friends, to work overtime, to go out shopping."He has threatening to ruin my job many times. I do not want … him to harm my parents and individuals at my work (students and faculty)," Kristin Palmer wrote in the affidavit.A preliminary protective order of family abuse was filed Monday, which ordered Kevin Palmer to not have any contact at any time with Kristin Griffin Palmer, or with any of her family or household members.Kristin Palmer was granted possession of the home Deerfield Lane, as well as was granted temporary exclusive possession of the couple's 2011 Ford Fusion.A hearing on the petition for a protective order was scheduled on March 4 at 8:45 a.m.The investigation into the shooting and domestic assault is ongoing.Griffin Palmer was a student and football player at Patrick Henry High School in Glade Spring.His grandmother and grandfather, Nancy and Terry Griffin were both former employees of Emory and Henry College."On behalf of Emory & Henry College, I wish to express my profound condolences to the family and friends of Nancy Griffin, a former employee of Emory & Henry College, and other members of her family who died Tuesday morning," Emory and Henry President Jake B. Schrum said in a statement Tuesday afternoon. "We ask for prayers for Nancy's family, including her husband, Dr. Terry Griffin, a retired E&H professor, who is recovering from injuries sustained in the incident. Both Nancy and Terry, who served this institution with distinction and dedication for many years, occupy an important place in the heart of the Emory & Henry community, and this tragedy leaves us with an extreme sense of sadness and loss."News Channel 11 will have a live report on today's events beginning on the news at 5 p.m. Copyright 2014 WJHL.

"Crayons of Color invite is a beautiful card and the colors just pop! I was pleased with my order. The font was a bit small on the card, but it didn't take away from the invitation. Perfect invite for an Art Birthday Party!"
"I just received the invitations that I ordered for Bella's party. OMG!! They are absolutely amazing! I love, love, love them! The paper quality was excellent. No flimsy, cheap cardstock. I wasn't sure how her photo would turn out so I was pleased to see that the photo turned out well. The font and colors turned out great as well! I would highly recommend tinyprints to all my family and friends! Ordering was easy. Shipping was fast and the product was professionally done. Thank you tinyprints for making Bella's day even more special."
"First time using this site, was very happy with the finished product. Would definitely recommend to others and will use again. Very east site to navigate through. No hassle."
"The colors on this invitation really popped; it looked just like I hoped it would as a printed invitation. I ordered these for my daughter's birthday, which is in November, so I wanted something that looked "fall-ish," but not boring. This did the trick. I received many compliments on it!"
"I ordered these for my daughter's 15th birthday party. Quick turn around on order and the cards came out beautifully! Loved the options available in order for me to customize it."

Amish on impossible
Our lads play ambassador and 'have some crabs'
"So do they speak English in England?" asks the Amish teacher innocently, as we sit down to dinner.
It sounds a ridiculous question, but when you have no access to TV or the internet, and boarding an aeroplane is strictly forbidden, "England" might as well be Mars.
David Fiedler, an Amish guide in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania
The eight silent children, lined up politely in descending height order across the table, are certainly staring at us as if we're from another planet.
It's day five of our breakneck tour of America and we've arrived in Pennsylvania - our 10th state - by way of Maryland and Delaware. We're in Lancaster County to be precise: the heartland of America's Amish community.
A girl on a scooter passes a traditional Amish buggy on a farm road in Pennsylvania
In the former, we stopped for dinner at a 70-year-old crab shack in the coastal town of Havre de Grace, and unwittingly picked up a third member of the team: whiskey swigging local goldsmith, harmonica player and force of nature Wayne Werner.
After showing us the correct way to dismember our dinner ("Hey, having crabs is a very social thing"), Wayne insists on taking us to a Blues bar across the border in Delaware, where he strolls straight up onto the stage and joins the startled band, harmonica in hand.
Luckily Wayne has the musical talent to match his bravado, and soon the bar is rocking, with our new friend at the heart of the action.
Wayne Werner (right) joins the band on stage in a bar in Wilmington, Delaware.
Our time with the Amish - once we've bid Wayne a fond farewell - is a completely different experience.
After a lesson in driving their horse drawn 'buggies' (surprisingly easy) we are asked to help milk the cows (surprisingly hard) before sweeping the barn and then sitting down to dinner with Steve and Martha Stoltzfus and their eight immaculate children.
Jonathan receives a lesson in Amish buggy driving
The conversation is fascinating - from the youngsters' fondness for Amish volleyball tournaments, to the parents' uncertainty about whether the British royal family are fact or fiction.
Wayne Werner and the Stoltzfus family are so different that in American terms they might as well represent Hawaii and Alaska. But they also have an awful lot in common.
For two consecutive nights, we've been warmly welcomed by local people, who've gone out of their way to help us experience their way of life first hand. On both occasions, they were strangers at the start of the evening and bona fide friends by the end of it.
Perhaps this mad mission to hit all 50 states in 30 days won't be so impossible after all.
Do it Yourself
Create your own adventure in Pennsylvania: Steve and Martha Stoltzfus, along with their family of eight children, are wonderful hosts with a guesthouse and idyllic self-catering cottage in Lancaster County.
Rooms at the Homestead Guesthouse are from £92 per night. For the best way to explore Amish country, try an Amish Buggy Ride – a horse-drawn carriage with an Amish tour-guide. A one-hour tour costs approx. £6 pp. Combine a visit to Lancaster with the historic and vibrant city of Philadelphia. Flights from £448 at www.americanairlines.com

For decades I have used the same fragnance, which by the way I adore, but also wanted to make a change. I've tested a number of fragnances and even bought some, but up until now no one was good enough to replace my old one. I am very happy with Vera Wang's Look and it is going from no on become one of the top two in my collection.

This was a great book because it was about two softball teams that would play against each other each year for a annnual softball game.There is a girl named Aki who is Jappenese and is on one of the two teams. There is a new girl on the opposit team named Shazam. She does not like Aki at all.

Katie said:
It's about two girls softball teams in the 1930s. Each team member of both teams writes a little about them selves and the other players on their team. The two teams have a game at the end of the book but it is cancelled because Shazam hit Aki in the jaw. Nobody wins!

LOST Marathon, Milepost 20: How am I Supposed to Win This Thing?
- Thursday, January 28, 2010
Note: This blog is counting down to the premiere of LOST's final season on Feb. 2 by spending the month leading up to it racing through every one of the previous 103 episodes. We're looking specifically at Christian/religious themes, other important or interesting concepts, literary references, and the theory that it's largely been about a game in which someone has won, and someone has... LOST. To follow us from the start, click here.
You might catch something you missed the second time around.
There's not much I like about crazy dogmatic dictator Locke right now, but the above quote is one of the few bits of wisdom he's speaking these days (and it makes me feel better about what I'm doing here, especially after I keep getting silly links sent to me like this one). Quite telling that Ben doesn't buy into the same philosophy, turning his nose up at being handed something he's already read. Perhaps Ben believes he's such a super genius that nothing could possibly have slipped past him. The rest of us? There's not a great work of art, music, literature, film or television that's caught our eye or ear which we won't visit multiple times. Watching this show this quickly and this closely a second time has drained me, but I'm the richer for it.
Here's some of the things I caught...
LOST Season Four, Disc Two: How am I Supposed to Win This Thing?
Episodes: 4.4 EGGTOWN (Kate-centric); 4.5 THE CONSTANT (Desmond-centric); 4.6 THE OTHER WOMAN (Juliet-centric); 4.7 JI YEON (Sun-centric)
Things That Stuck Out
If there's one minor thing that's bothering me about Season Four so far, it's that I'm finding a lot of things "too simple." And by this I don't mean island mysteries or anything, I mean plot devices. Lapidus landed a helicopter safely when no one else can arrive in anything but a twisted wreck? Why? Because we need a helicopter. Ben didn't tell anyone about his "man on the boat" two episodes earlier? Why not? Just because? What, he wasn't desperate enough yet? Hurley doesn't tell Locke what he knows about the Cabin, because...? In the real world people talk about weird stuff they see, especially when they know someone else is looking for it. Sawyer wants to know why they can't threaten to shoot Ben in the foot so they can interrogate a dangerous man. Locke says "because then we'd have to carry him." Really? That's why? Just drag the dude. Kate's prosecutor objects to Jack as a witness. The judge simply overrules. Because? Because the story needs him to. Kate insists that Aaron will NOT be "used" as a courtroom prop to generate sympathy even though her lawyer advises it because he has to make the case about character and thinks it's her only shot. Well, okay then, we can make it work without Aaron, because we have to. Kate gets off scott-free because... ? Because she brought Aaron back with her and Jack gave the performance of his life on the witness stand about what a nice lady she is? And her mom suddenly has a change of heart? These are Deus ex Machina type easy answers that I'm only willing to tolerate because I want to believe they are just helping us wade through some necessary details to get to the good stuff.
"Eggtown" starts with a character making eggs (Locke makes breakfast for Ben, who, last we saw at the end of the previous disc, was living it up as an evil assassin, so it's weird to see him all bloodied and imprisoned below his own house two minutes of screen time later). And instantly we're right back where we started in Season Two. Ben's locked in a room with a face that looks like hamburger, Locke's bringing him food and reading materials, Ben's not giving any answers, and Locke's throwing stuff in the hallway, and Ben's smiling back in his cell. I believe these recurrences are more than just a clever literary conceit, and suggest that time keeps looping back on itself... at least until some anomaly changes the fabric.

SoJo announces public launch to transform ideas for global social change into action
Leading Social Innovation Provider Endorsed by United Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organization.
June 28, 2012. (Toronto, Canada) SoJo , a leading provider of tools and resources for social
innovators and social change, is excited to announce the official launch of its comprehensive
resources website http://theSoJo.net. The launch is the next step for SoJo becoming the leading
online resource for social innovators to turn ideas for social change into action.
"Since SoJo's beta launch in fall 2011, we have worked hard at increasing the accessibility of
valuable information, knowledge and lessons learned for individuals wishing bring an idea
for social change into action." said Kanika Gupta, SoJo's founder and Chief Catalyst. "This
launch represents and enhances our commitment to the individual behind the idea, and takes
SoJo to the next level as an organization as we work to close the gap between the individual
and the knowledge they need. At SoJo, we remove the complications that occur when trying to
find fragmented and complex information to ensure that the individual can focus, incubate and
execute on their ideas for social change."
Along with the launch, SoJo is excited to announce its endorsement by the United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization ("UNESCO"). This endorsement represents a
validation of the work that SoJo has been doing in bridging the gap between those looking for
help with their ideas and the necessary educational tools and direction that SoJo provides.
"The Canadian Commission for UNESCO is proud to support SoJo and believes that it is an
innovative initiative that will have a multiplier effect by providing a platform to bring together
social innovators who can collectively work toward finding solutions to global challenges", said
David Walden, Secretary-General of Canadian Commission for UNESCO.
The official launch of SoJo provides more resources and information for individuals looking to
turn their ideas into action. The service provides a step-by-step guide to achieving social change.
SoJo is a self-guided online resource for individuals to use to develop ideas allowing those at the
intersection of social change to find exactly what they are looking for and at any stage in their
In its beta phase, SoJo has reached over 15,000 social innovators since November 2011. "With
SoJo, we were able to clarify our vision and articulate our goals clearly for the future", said
Karim Sultan, from Kalimat Magazine. "Engaging with and being part of a community of social
innovators and change agents is exciting and enabling. Kalimat discovered early on that there
are many other initiatives with varying degrees of overlap, so that kind of communication and
mutual support can only have a positive result".

Boxscore PDF
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The University of Tennessee at Martin battled tonight at Tennessee State but narrowly fell 3-1 (23-25, 19-25, 25-22, 23-25) to the Tigers at Kean Hall.
The Skyhawks (8-15, 2-5 Ohio Valley Conference) were led offensively this evening by Madison Wessling and Lynsey Hazelwood, each of whom racked up 11 kills. Emily Keaton secured nine kills while Allie Whimpey tallied eight kills for UT Martin, who received 41 assists from Amanda Crask.
Defensively, Chelsea Bowles led the way with 17 digs while Keaton scooped up 10 digs. Hazelwood amassed nine digs, coming up just one dig shy of a double-double.
The Skyhawks led for the majority of the first set before a Tennessee State run midway through the set proved to be the difference. After the Tigers took their first lead at 7-6, UT Martin reeled off three straight points – including back-to-back kills by Crask and Keaton – to make the score 9-7. Moments later, an assisted block by Whimpey and Keaton provided a 12-9 Skyhawk lead but Tennessee State would go on a 9-3 run to go on top 18-15. UT Martin then accounted for four straight points to take a 19-18 lead but Tennessee State responded with a 4-1 run. The Skyhawks got within a single point on three different occasions – including 24-23 – but could not reclaim the lead for the remainder of the set.
Keaton's three kills led five Skyhawks with multi-kill efforts in the first set while Crask handed out 10 assists.
Tennessee State used a 7-0 run to jump out to a 9-3 lead in the second set but UT Martin crept back within four points (14-10) courtesy of back-to-back kills by Julia Devinney and Whimpey. The margin remained at four until a 4-0 Tiger run made the score 20-12 but the Skyhawks kept fighting, chalking up five unanswered points of their own to get within three points at 20-17. However, Tennessee State scored five of the final seven points to claim the set.
Wessling and Hazelwood each were responsible for three kills for the Skyhawks in the second set.
UT Martin battled back from a 4-1 deficit to take a 7-6 lead in the third set, thanks to two straight service aces by Whimpey. With the score knotted at 11-all, the Skyhawks scored three unanswered to take a 14-11 lead off a block by Devinney and Whimpey. Tennessee State would get back within one point at 19-18 but UT Martin would once again score three straight points to extend its lead out to 22-18. The Tigers would not get closer than two points for the rest of the set.
Hazelwood and Whimpey posted three kills apiece in the third set while Bowles led the way defensively with five of the team's 11 digs.
Whimpey started UT Martin off on the right foot with a kill in the first set but Tennessee State came back with a 10-0 run. The Tigers would lead 15-3 but it was soon the Skyhawks' turn to go on a lengthy run. UT Martin would unleash a 20-9 run, scoring at least three consecutive points on four different occasions to pull all the way back within 24-23. However, Tennessee State came away with the final point to halt the Skyhawk comeback attempt.
Wessling (five kills), Crask (12 assists) and Bowles (nine digs) were instrumental in UT Martin's rally in the fourth set.
UT Martin concludes a four-match OVC road trip on Saturday, Oct. 19 when it heads across town to battle Belmont at 2 p.m.

Tampa Bay Lightning forward Ryan Malone will not be suspended for his hit on Montreal Canadiens defenceman Chris Campoli.
NHL Senior Vice President of Player Safety and Hockey Operations Brendan Shanahan made the call on Monday, saying this decision was his "most difficult to date."
"We felt that this hit was the most challenging one so far in this pre-season for the Department of Player Safety to evaluate," said Shanahan. "In the end, we felt that Malone had committed to the hit when Campoli was upright. However, when the contact was made, Campoli's head position significantly changed just prior to the hit.
"There are elements about the hit that we don't like - specifically, the principal point of contact being the head and that it was not a full-body check. But the overriding factor in our judgment was that Campoli's loss of the puck and subsequent bending forward for it just prior contributed significantly, if not entirely, to those elements."
Malone received a five minute major penalty and a game misconduct on Saturday when he hit Campoli with a shoulder to the head near the mid-point of the third period. Campoli, who the club signed last week and was only in his second game with the club, was forced to leave the game.
Campoli took part at practice on Monday as the Canadiens began their team-building session in Collingwood, ON. Head coach Jacques Martin said the blueliner did not suffer a concussion or experience post-concussion symptoms.

Comments about SPORTS AUTHORITY Vacuum-Insulated Water Bottle - 40 oz:
Overall we are very pleased with these bottles so far. We ordered 4 of them for our family. Three of our kids play soccer and of course they get really hot. We used to use the larger jugs with a spout, but the lids were hard to open/close and they often leaked.
These are larger than most water bottles and the insulation keeps the water/ice cold. The only con that I would say is that they may be difficult to transport all together since there isn't really a handle. I am cautious to hook on a carabiner to the lid because I am worried the strap may break. I plan to try and use the cardboard wine bottle carriers from our local grocery store to carry them all to our games.

Food was decent. We did Anytime Dining so we could sit with different people each night which, I think, gives a better variety of stories. I am a fussy eater so I was glad to see that Princess has added comfort food selections to the menu, such as an Angus burger. Simple but welcome.
Entertainment was plentiful but I've seen better acts. The comics weren't that funny and I didn't get to any of the production shows. The ships band (Sol Provider) was excellent.
Cruise staff were great as usual. We saw the deputy Cruise Director more than the head guy but both were enthusiastic and fun. The assistants, especially the DJ were crazy (James' trivia questions were evil). Our room steward, Emmanuel, was very helpful with a problem we had with our balcony door.
Ports of call included Aruba, Cartagena, the canal itself, Limon Costa Rica and Grand Cayman. We found our walking tour of Cartagena's Old City tiring but fascinating although the street vendors are quite annoying. They are not shy and will not let up.
At the canal, after going through the Gatun Locks we tendered ashore to get on a smaller boat which took us through the Galliard Cut and the other locks out to the Pacific. I must say, you get a better feel for how the locks work this way. On the IP I never got the sensation of being raised even though I knew we were. On the small boat being lowered felt very dramatic.
Our best excursion was white water rafting in Costa Rica. Class II rapids, so not real wild but wet and exciting.
Disembarkation took way too long due to a shortage of Customs agents but I think that's par for the course.
I would definitely recommend this trip.

5 Good (If Not Great) Reasons For Sleeping Apart
Bedrooms are for sex or sleeping. If you can't sleep after sex is over, it's okay to sleep apart.
1. Your partner has a cold, the flu or anything otherwise catching
2. Your partner snores
3. Your partner steals the covers
4. Your sleeping partner whacks you, strangles you, hogs the bed, or rolls you in the mattress like a hot dog
5. Your partner's feet (or something else) stink it up under the covers
