It's been six months since the brutal murder, of a Cleveland Clinic nurse.
Aliza Sherman was stabbed to death in the heart of downtown Cleveland and her killer is still out there.
The billboard on Cleveland's east side is hard to miss -- "Justice for Aliza." A $50 thousand reward is being offered to find her killer.
Sherman stabbed 11 times after leaving her attorney's office. She was in the midst of a long drawn out messy divorce that was finally set to go to trial.
The family of Aliza Sherman wants justice, closure to this troubling case that still remains unsolved.
There are still no suspects in this case and no arrests. If you know anything Cleveland Police continue to ask for help with information in this murder.

By Michael Arbeiter, Hollywood Staff
As we saw in the first trailer for the upcoming Netflix season of Arrested Development, not a lot has changed for the Bluth and Fünke families. Sure, George Michael is a bit taller, and there seems to be a prevalence of exotic birds haunting the model home. But moreover, Season 4 looks like business as usual. Which is a great, great thing. On Monday night, series star Portia de Rossi graced Late Night with Jimmy Fallon viewers with a clip depicting her character, Lindsay, and her TV family, Tobias (David Cross) and Maeby (Alia Shawkat), matching wits with a real estate agent, played by returning guest star Ed Helms.
Upholding an old Fünke tradition, Lindsay and Tobias get so ensconced in their self-serving habits that they seem to forget entirely about one particularly significant element in their lives: their daughter. But don't worry, she's used to it. Check out the clip below, and gear up for the new Arrested Development episodes on May 26.

The Bloodiest One Day Battle in American History
23,000 soldiers were killed, wounded or missing after twelve hours of savage combat on September 17, 1862. The Battle of Antietam ended the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia's first invasion into the North and led to Abraham Lincoln's issuance of the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation.

What is the difference between the Historical Manuscripts Commission (HMC) and the National Register of Archives (NRA)?
What is the NRA?
What manuscripts does the NRA hold?
What is included in the NRA?
How is information collected?
What does an NRA list contain?
Are copies of NRA catalogues available online?
Do I need to visit The National Archives Research and Enquiries Room?
Can I have a copy of an NRA list?
How do I search the online indexes to the NRA?
How do I interpret an NRA index entry?
Can I use the NRA for subject-based research?
Is the NRA of use to family historians?
Is the NRA of use to people researching the history of their house?
The Historical Manuscripts Commission (now part of The National Archives) is the organisation which maintains the NRA.
The NRA is a central point for the collection and dissemination of information about the nature and location of manuscripts relating to British history. It currently consists of over 44,000 unpublished lists and catalogues that describe archival holdings in the United Kingdom and overseas. These can be consulted in The National Archives' reading rooms, see Visit us for further information regarding access to The National Archives. The lists and catalogues have been indexed according to corporate bodies, persons and families and the indexes are available online.
The NRA does NOT hold any manuscripts or historical records.
The NRA contains information about the location and nature of historical records that have been created by some 53,000 individuals, 9,000 families, 32,000 businesses and 116,000 organisations.
The NRA is continually being updated with new or improved information that is derived from a variety of sources:
The quantity and quality of information contained in lists in the NRA can vary considerably, but lists generally include the covering dates of the collection and descriptions of the main groups of records, such as correspondence, ledgers, notebooks, minutes books, etc.
Most of the hardcopy lists in the NRA are NOT available online, but the indexes to the NRA are being linked to electronic networking initiatives such as Archives in London and the M25 area, Archives Hub, Access to Archives, and other independent cataloguing projects. When available there will be links to online catalogues.
Over 90,000 pages of hard copy NRA lists are now available online via the NRA indexes. Where a list has been digitised and is available for consultation online, a link to a scanned list will appear in the relevant index entries. These lists will no longer be available for consultation at The National Archives in hard copy format.
Many users will find all the information they need to locate their sources on this website. But a visit to The National Archives provides open-shelf access to catalogues for browsing, as well as many reference works from which data about private papers has been entered in the NRA indexes. On request, our professional staff will also be glad to discuss with you the possible sources for your research and assist you in locating them. For information on visiting The National Archives see Visit us.
The copyright of individual lists remains with the creator organisation. This is usually the repository where the collection is held, and any requests for copies of lists should be directed there.
There are five online indexes to the NRA: the business index, the organisations index, the personal index, the families and estates index and the diaries and papers index. You can search the indexes in the following ways:
Simple Search designed so that you can search more than one index simultaneously, although it is not possible to search all five at once.
Advanced Search allows more refined searches of each index:
Browse and Search allows you to conduct searches of all of the indexes with the results presented in simple alphabetical order.
Entries found under the different indexes to the NRA vary to some extent but all share certain common elements and once you understand these you will easily be able to interpret the results of most of the searches that you conduct. Many individual index entries have numerous subentries referring to different groups of records but each will follow the pattern outlined below. A typical index entry will include:
The NRA indexes are NOT arranged by theme or subject. The indexes are structured by provenance - that is according to the individual, family, organisation or business that created and used the records.
The NRA does not normally provide the level of detail about historical records that is needed for genealogical research, but it is sometimes possible to obtain useful information from the business index and the families and estates index. See our Records section for help getting started with your research.
The NRA does not generally include sufficiently detailed information to trace the history of individual properties, although collections of solicitors records noted under the business index can sometimes be of use. See our Records section for help getting started with your research.

The Denver Nuggets began playing professional basketball as the Denver Rockets of the ABA. In the ABA the franchise mostly experienced strong seasons, reaching the finals in the last season before the merger between the ABA and NBA. The Nuggets had immediate success upon joining the NBA, making the playoffs their first three seasons in the Association and 12 times in their first 14 seasons. Through the 1990s Denver struggled mightily, making the playoffs just twice in the decade. The Nuggets didn't return to the NBA spotlight again until Denver selected Syracuse small forward Carmelo Anthony with the third overall pick in the 2003 NBA Draft. Since Anthony's arrival in Denver for the 2003-04 season the Nuggets have yet to miss the playoffs. Though always a part of postseason play, Denver has only made it past the first round of the playoffs once—reaching the Western Conference Finals in 2009. Despite Anthony leaving Denver for New York, the Nuggets still have continued their frequent postseason presence. Denver has retired the numbers of five players throughout the team's long history. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Denver Nuggets basketball tickets.
The Nuggets, sporting a 57-win regular season and a #3 seed in the Western Conference playoffs, looked to be one of the toughest squads to knock out of the postseason. However, a 4-2 loss to Golden State in the first round saw the end of the season and the firing of NBA Coach of the Year George Karl. Corey Brewer and Andre Iguodala also left town in free agency. The Nuggets have added Randy Foye, Darrell Arthur and Nate Robinson to help with the transition to new coach Brian Shaw for the 2013-14 season.
The Nuggets look poised to continue scoring lots of points behind PG Ty Lawson and top rebounder Kenneth Faried. JaVale McGee will start at center, and the high-flying big man will have his opportunity to make a big impression on Shaw early on. The Nuggets have had a lot of turnover, but this team has been retooled for another run at the playoffs.
Check out our Denver Nuggets Season Preview History page for previews of previous Nuggets seasons.
The Nuggets play their home games at the Pepsi Center, located in Denver, Colorado. When filled to capacity, the Pepsi Center holds more than 19 thousand screaming Nuggets fans. While at the Pepsi Center, be sure to go to the Pepsi Point—an interactive fan experience where you can get your picture taken as if you were a real member of the team. The Denver Nuggets home bench is on the Pepsi Center court side in front of sections 146 & 148. Pepsi Center parking information is covered in our Nuggets event guide.
Los Angeles Lakers, Utah Jazz, San Antonio Spurs
As Western Conference foes, these two teams don't get along at all. With over 150 regular season matchups, there is not much love lost between the franchises. The two teams have met constantly in the playoffs over the years, and it intensified when the Nuggets and Lakers met in the 2009 Western Conference Finals.
As regional rivals and with over 170 regular season matchups and another 20+ playoff meetings, these two teams continue to comprise one of the better rivalries in the NBA. The rivalry was at its peak in the mid-1980s when they met in back-to-back seasons in the playoffs. As both teams play in the Western Conference, this rivalry has showed no signs of slowing down.
This rivalry dates back to their ABA days and they have played against each other more times than they have any other opponent with over 260 games. The Spurs and Nuggets have met in the playoffs many times, making the rivalry reach a fever pitch. The matchup will only continue to get better in the upcoming seasons as they build off a history that started in the late 1960s.
The Nuggets continue to look for their first NBA and Western Conference Championship, but they have won over 6 division titles since they joined the NBA in 1976. Denver has been very successful over the last decade as they have become consistent division contenders and playoff performers.
Doors open to the general public 1 hour before tipoff. The Nuggets have one of the most passionate fan bases and many fans brave the cold to tailgate outside before the game.
Right next door to the Pepsi Center is Brooklyn's. The ability to seat around 500 people, large TV's and a traditional menu make Brooklyn's a convenient and fun way to spend pre-game with tons of other Nuggets fans. If you are looking for a place with a little historic flare, check out the pizza and burgers at Wazee Supper Club. For some of the best southwest food anywhere check out Tomayo. It is also smoke free and vegetarian friendly, making it perfect for families. Zengo, Tag, and ChoLon are all great Asian fusion places that will not disappoint. If you are looking to try something new, check out Mario's Double Daughter's Salotto or Euclid Hall Bar & Kitchen.
The Pepsi Center is conveniently located next to Six Flags Elitch Gardens and the Auraria Campus, giving the area plenty of parking options. Getting to the center early and purchasing a parking pass allows you to park in the most convenient lots. If you are not afraid of a short walk, try looking in the 7th St. and Auraria Pkwy area, as there are multiple parking garages in that direction. The Regional Metropolitan District is the public transportation option to and from the game. The bus and light rail lets off within a couple blocks of Pepsi Center and helps you avoid the hassle of parking and driving.
All children over the age of 3 will need a ticket to enter the Pepsi Center. Children under 3 years old may sit in their parents lap for the duration of the game. We recommend bringing proof of your child's age to the gate to ensure they are allowed to enter.
Wanted to thank you for the advice and great seats at Yankee Stadium for the Yanks vs. Red Sox. Mark - Cincinnati, OH

Things I liked:I like the feel of the Model 11 as well as the fit and finish. The blow-back action is nice.
What others should know:The Winchester Model 11 is great for plinking and short-range target shooting. The blow-back is a very nice feature and adds to the fun of shooting this pistol. I get an average of 70 shots per CO2 cartridge. Buy some extra magazines, you'll be glad you did, so you can enjoy more time shooting and less time reloading.
Things I liked:Very impressed with this air gun. Has the look and feel of a great replica with sturdy metal construction. Considerable power and accuracy makes it very fun to use.
Things I would have changed:The CO2 canisters are a little to change at first. The double safety is a little odd but not overly problematic and can easily be modified without risk.
What others should know:As an inexperienced air gun user, I found this particular gun very easy to use and very enjoyable. It was a great fir air gun to purchase and I'm quite happy with it.
Things I liked:blowback action
Things I would have changed:nothing
What others should know:good price!!

As of Tuesday, March 20, 2012
© Copyright 2014 Newton Citizen
COVINGTON -- Students at Rocky Plains Elementary School were evacuated Tuesday morning after an anonymous caller phoned in a bomb threat to the school, according to the Newton County Sheriff's Office.
"Deputies and investigators arrived on the scene and assisted the school staff in searching the premises," said NCSO spokesman 1st Lt. Mark Mitchell. "Nothing has been located and right now we're following up to see where this threat came from."
Mitchell said the students were removed from the building for about an hour and after finding no evidence of a bomb, authorities allowed them back into the school and classes resumed as usual.
According to Newton County School System's Director of Public Relations Sherri Davis-Viniard, all 800 students at the school were evacuated without incident and held at a secure location until the building was cleared.
"Dr. (Miranda) Jones (principal) has indicated she is very proud of the students as they did a fantastic job this morning and were well-behaved throughout the entire situation," Davis-Viniard said Tuesday afternoon.
Responding to the school were personnel from the NCSO, as well as the Newton County Fire Service and administrative personnel from the Newton County School System.
Mitchell said there are no suspects at this time and asked that anyone who has knowledge of who might be responsible for this incident to call the NCSO at 678-625-1400 or 678-5007, or go to their web site at www.newtonsheriiffga.org and click on "anonymous tips."

A good helmet is an essential purchase for any downhill mountain biker. No matter how good a downhill/freerider you are, one thing is pretty certain: At some point you're going to crash, sorry but it's a fact of life. There's not a lot that can be done to avoid it, but you can at least make sure you have the right equipment to protect you against those hard spills.
Full face helmets have become more and more popular in the last few years and it's easy to see why. They offer far greater protection, especially around the face and chin area, then standard mountain bike helmets. The Remedy is a well priced, full face helmet from Giro that features a fiberglass exterior (although the helmet is also available in a more expensive carbon fibre model) with an EVA lined chinbar.
Giro have also chosen to include a few nice extra touches on the helmet, including a washable liner, visor with easy adjustment, replaceable cheek pads and an 'Optimized Super Fit™ goggle port.' The washable liner and replaceable cheek pads should come in particularly useful – Anyone who's used a Full face helmet will undoubtably know just how sweaty they can become after just a few rides and the option to fully take out the liner and put it through the washing machine seems a wise and helpful choice.
The padding inside the Remedy is the same as the padding found in Giro's range of snow helmets so you can be sure that the fit will feel snug and secure. The padding is designed to grip the top of the head which results in minimal movement from side to side or front to back. When you're shooting down a steep trail at high speeds this secure fit is crucial and very reassuring.
One of the downside of a full face is the heat. A full face helmet is always going to be on the warm side, especially in the summer months. Giro seem well aware of this fact and have included 14 vents and internal air channels to help reduce the temperatures and channel the hot air to the back of the helmet to reduce the risk of goggle fogging. Giro have also included a google strap routing on the remedy to helpfully hold your goggles in place.
One of the best features of the Remedy is the fact it's available in a number of colour choices, from a simple Matte White or Grey all the way to a bright Neon Green, Process Blue/Bright Yellow or Black/Cyan/Lime. This means that even if you see a fellow rider in the same helmet as you, the chances are they they will have a completely different colour combination.
The Giro Remedy Full Face MTB helmet offers the same full protection as its big brother carbon fibre model but crucially comes at half the price. If you're looking for an extremely light weight full face helmet than the fibre glass Remedy might not be for you, but if you're after a no-nonsense helmet that has some nice extras, solid performance and a host of different colourways then the Remedy will happily fit the bill.

Does Apple Have a Parachute for the Fiscal Cliff?
Douglas is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
As the stock market continues to digest the results of Tuesday's Obama re-elect, the impact of the fiscal cliff is playing a central role in driving prices. One of the critical concerns facing investors is the potential hike in the capital gains tax that could see profits hurt as early as January. To this end, CNBC's Jim Cramer recommended selling Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) ahead of year-end to protect the sizable profits that many are holding as unrealized profits. Apple's stock, which is down over 20% from its all-time high above $700, has continued to slide since the election. While Mr. Cramer makes a valid point, the continued sell-off has become a buying opportunity.
Apple's Position
Looking at the chart below, you can see that despite the recent correction, Apple is still up nearly 35% in the last year. This means that many shareholders have significant profits that qualify as capital gains. Remember that to qualify as long-term capital gains you must have held the stock for longer than a year; otherwise profits are treated as ordinary income. Apple has been a strong performer for investors, but when considering the tax consequences of your holdings, it is important to take potential changes in the tax code into account.
Cramer believes that this concern has driven the continued sell-off since the election: "These people are natural sellers and they don't care that next year could be better, they want to take the gain this year to get the tax break, which is worth more than any capital appreciation they could hope for." Whether you are a loyal Apple fan or considering initiating a new position in the stock, it is important to consider the backdrop against which the stock is trading.
The Wash Sale Rule
While it would have been of significant benefit to current shareholders to sell Apple when I initially recommended getting out, there are still steps that can be taken to protect yourself. Under the tax code, there is a provision known as the wash sale rule that prevents an investor from selling a security at a loss in order to lock in that loss for tax purposes and then buying the stock back within thirty days. The principle is that investors should not be able to avoid taxes by selling and then immediately buying back the same, or substantially the same, securities.
The wash sale rule does not, however, apply to gains. What this means is that if you have been an Apple shareholder for over a year, you can sell your shares to lock in your profit at the current capital gains rate and then buy those shares back immediately. This guarantees that your profit will be considered under the current capital gains rate.
If we consider this reality against Mr. Cramer's explanation of Apple's sell-off, there are only two possible conclusions we can draw. The first is that investors either do not understand the wash sale rule – which is perfectly possible – or that they are using the fiscal cliff and capital gains concerns to sell the stock as they wanted to in any event. The second possibility is that the explanation is wrong. As long as the sale is completed before the end of the year, the current tax rate would apply. There is certainly an argument that tax-driven selling may put pressure on the stock, making it prudent to sell early, but the immediate reaction to the election results – while still in the midst of a sustained correction – suggests that there is more at play.
Mr. Cramer's analysis that taking gains in higher dividend stocks like AT&T (NYSE: T) and Consolidated Edison (NYSE: ED) makes more sense under his line of reason. Taking profits in stocks that garner significant appeal from dividends that may be taxed at a much higher rate is reasonable. There is definitely some tax maneuvering in play, but I do not believe it is the primary driver of Apple's performance.
A Buying Opportunity
As the country comes out of the fog that invariably settles over our psyches heading into a presidential election, the real problems that still exist are being remembered. Unemployment persists, Europe is still a mess and the fiscal cliff has not evaporated. It is against these concerns that the market is purging its metaphorical stomach with a multi-day wretch. Apple shares, however, had already largely taken care of their needed correction, making the additional sell-off an opportunity to buy shares even lower. I believe the holiday season will prove successful for Apple and recommend buying shares here.

Ever sit by the ocean, and watch a buoy or a seagull bob up and purchase cialis no prescription down without end? The energy it
takes to move all that water up and down is massive. Prevailing winds,
temperature differentials, strong weather and even the rotation of levitra online without prescription the
Earth all contribute to the never-ending crash of waves against the
shore, and viewed from a certain perspective, that's a lot of energy
going to the best choice cialis overnight waste:
The World Energy Council has estimated that approximately 2 terawatts (2 million megawatts), about double current world electricity production, could be produced from the cheap cialis no prescription oceans via wave power. It is estimated that 1 million gigawatt hours of wave energy hits Australian shores annually and that 25% of the UK's current power usage could be supplied by harvesting its wave resource.
The image above shows average yearly wave-power energy in various parts of the world in kilowatts per METER!
The same ocean currents that fueled the economic growth of the 18th and 19th centuries may now help power the countries that prospered as a result - with the best sites in the world lying off the shores of developed countries, look for this alternative energy to (I can't help myself) make some waves in the coming years. Scotland, Portugal, Australia and Hawaii already have installations underway or in place, and feasibility studies are being undertaken by Spain, Norway, USA and New Zealand.

Salisbury, MD. You say Clematis (KLEM-a-tis), I say Clematis (klem-AH-tis).
No matter how you pronounce it, Clematis is a wonderful plant for most locations. If you garden in a small area, it's perfect because it grows up, not out, maximizing space. I can even be container grown. If you garden in a shaded lot, your clematis will yield brighter blooms. If you garden in full sun, you can take a few simple steps that will allow your clematis to thrive.
Clematis come in a wide range of colors ranging from the large deep bluish-purple flowered "Jackmanii" that you most often see growing at mailboxes over the summer to the small multi-blossomed white "Sweet Autumn" that can literally cover large areas with its sweet scented blooms in the fall.
As the Gardening Grannies so often say, "just put the right plants in the right place" and your gardens will thrive. So, just what makes Clematis happy? It's a pretty simple formula. Most important is to plant it with its face in the sun and its feet in the shade. Clematis like cool feet, so it's important to put them where other small plants (think annuals such as impatiens) or mulch can shade the root system. As with most plants, they grow towards the sun with six hours a day being plenty. For many of the brightly colored ones, direct sun all day can fade the blooms and shorten their "prime".
A particularly attractive feature of Clematis is the 300-some species and hybrids available to the gardener. Some are early bloomers, some mid-summer and some fall bloomers. There are large and small flowered varieties in a wide range of colors. Some have a huge flush of color at bloom-time and then are done for the season while others bloom for months at a time. Some are fragrant, others are not. Catalogs are usually very specific about the type, time and length of bloom, so there is minimal risk in purchasing and maximum benefit of planning out a full season of blooms. The one negative trait of Clematis that they all have in common is that during the winter, they are all a relatively unattractive mass of tangled vines.
Clematis can be grown on a fence, trellis, shepherd's crook or over an object the gardener might want to enhance (as in a mailbox) or hide (as in a stump or other unattractive object). Granny Griffith has particular luck by planting Clematis alongside climbing roses with their feet cooled by liriiope and under mulched mature rhododendrons. The compliment of blooms can be stunning. It can also offer unexpected benefits when the combination of leaves and density provides shelter for nesting birds. This is the second year that a robin has chosen to nest in the shelter of a climbing rose/clematis planting in Granny Griffith's back yard.
As with most climbing plants, the first year is often one of survival, the second year the plant strengthens its root system and the third year it takes off. Regular fertilizing with a consistently moist soil reduces stress and enhances growth of the plant. If you haven't thought of them before, the Gardening Grannies encourage you to give consideration to them for this gardening season.
The Gardening Grannies are a mature group of avid and Master Gardeners who live, love and garden on the Delmarva Peninsula. You can reach them at firstname.lastname@example.com.

33 U.S. Code § 701–1 - Declaration of policy of 1944 act
In connection with the exercise of jurisdiction over the rivers of the Nation through the construction of works of improvement, for navigation or flood control, as herein authorized, it is declared to be the policy of the Congress to recognize the interests and rights of the States in determining the development of the watersheds within their borders and likewise their interests and rights in water utilization and control, as herein authorized to preserve and protect to the fullest possible extent established and potential uses, for all purposes, of the waters of the Nation's rivers; to facilitate the consideration of projects on a basis of comprehensive and coordinated development; and to limit the authorization and construction of navigation works to those in which a substantial benefit to navigation will be realized therefrom and which can be operated consistently with appropriate and economic use of the waters of such rivers by other users.
In conformity with this policy:
(a) Plans, proposals, or reports of the Chief of Engineers, Department of the Army, for any works of improvement for navigation or flood control not heretofore or herein authorized, shall be submitted to the Congress only upon compliance with the provisions of this paragraph (a). Investigations which form the basis of any such plans, proposals, or reports shall be conducted in such a manner as to give to the affected State or States, during the course of the investigations, information developed by the investigations and also opportunity for consultation regarding plans and proposals, and, to the extent deemed practicable by the Chief of Engineers, opportunity to cooperate in the investigations. If such investigations in whole or part are concerned with the use or control of waters arising west of the ninety-seventh meridian, the Chief of Engineers shall give to the Secretary of the Interior, during the course of the investigations, information developed by the investigations and also opportunity for consultation regarding plans and proposals, and to the extent deemed practicable by the Chief of Engineers, opportunity to cooperate in the investigations. The relations of the Chief of Engineers with any State under this paragraph (a) shall be with the Governor of the State or such official or agency of the State as the Governor may designate. The term "affected State or States" shall include those in which the works or any part thereof are proposed to be located; those which in whole or part are both within the drainage basin involved and situated in a State lying wholly or in part west of the ninety-eighth meridian; and such of those which are east of the ninety-eighth meridian as, in the judgment of the Chief of Engineers, will be substantially affected. Such plans, proposals, or reports and related investigations shall be made to the end, among other things, of facilitating the coordination of plans for the construction and operation of the proposed works with other plans involving the waters which would be used or controlled by such proposed works. Each report submitting any such plans or proposals to the Congress shall set out therein, among other things, the relationship between the plans for construction and operation of the proposed works and the plans, if any, submitted by the affected States and by the Secretary of the Interior. The Chief of Engineers shall transmit a copy of his proposed report to each affected State, and, in case the plans or proposals covered by the report are concerned with the use or control of waters which rise in whole or in part west of the ninety-seventh meridian, to the Secretary of the Interior. Within 30 days from the date of receipt of said proposed report, the written views and recommendations of each affected State and of the Secretary of the Interior may be submitted to the Chief of Engineers. The Secretary of the Army shall transmit to the Congress, with such comments and recommendations as he deems appropriate, the proposed report together with the submitted views and recommendations of affected States and of the Secretary of the Interior. The Secretary of the Army may prepare and make said transmittal any time following said 30-day period. The letter of transmittal and its attachments shall be printed as a House or Senate document.
(b) The use for navigation, in connection with the operation and maintenance of such works herein authorized for construction, of waters arising in States lying wholly or partly west of the ninety-eighth meridian shall be only such use as does not conflict with any beneficial consumptive use, present or future, in States lying wholly or partly west of the ninety-eighth meridian, of such waters for domestic, municipal, stock water, irrigation, mining, or industrial purposes.
(c) The Secretary of the Interior, in making investigations of and reports on works for irrigation and purposes incidental thereto shall, in relation to an affected State or States (as defined in paragraph (a) of this section), and to the Secretary of the Army, be subject to the same provisions regarding investigations, plans, proposals, and reports as prescribed in paragraph (a) of this section for the Chief of Engineers and the Secretary of the Army.

The program in Taiwan is not only an academic, but also a personal challenge for participants. The culture of Taiwan is very different from that of the United States - especially with regard to standards of behavior and interpersonal relations. Students should be prepared to make a significant commitment to the demanding nature of the study program and to adapting to the requirements of living and studying as a part of the ambient cultural and social environment.
The year begins with an orientation session, conducted by the resident staff. Orientation comprises a language placement exam, visits in and around Taipei, and an in-depth introduction to the country, culture, and the academic program, as well as practical information about living in Taiwan. Throughout the year, several field trips are planned to such places as the National Palace Museum and other places, such as other museums and businesses.
University housing in Taiwan is clean, comfortable and very affordable. When you submit the NTU online application for exchange students, you will be asked whether you need accommodations or not. Checking "yes," on the NTU online application indicates that you want on-campus accommodation. This is guaranteed housing for visiting exchange students and you will automatically be assigned to a certain university dorm without further notice. There are two dormitories; these include the International Youth Center (IYC) and the Prince House Dormitory (a.k.a. BOT). Due to the limited number of rooms, there is no guarantee that you will get your first choice, but you will be assigned to a room in one of the dormitories.
There is not a great difference in the two options, but we have provided a brief description of each below. (The IYC dormitories are older, but have been renovated recently and are very comfortable. The Prince House dormitories are privately owned but are located just across the street from NTU. They were built in 2008.)
IYC: All IYC rooms are shared by at least two persons. It is not possible to apply for a single room or to request a roommate. Rooms are equipped with: single bed frames (futon mattress excluded), desks, desk lamps, bookshelves, closets, central air-conditioning, internet connection and telephone outlets. Students may purchase affordable futon mattresses and are advised to purchase sheets and towels after they arrive.
Each floor has communal bathrooms and a shared study space. Meals are not provided but the building has a convenience store, a food stand and a dining area. Meals can be purchased for reasonable prices very close to campus. The IYC dormitory has ping-pong tables and workout facilities, laundry facilities (coin-operated washing machines and tumble dryers), a living lounge, entertainment room and a movie theater.
Prince House: Both private and shared rooms are available at the Prince House, and all rooms have private bathrooms. (Note: A limited number of apartments for married couples may be available in the Prince House.) The Prince House dormitories are comprised of several buildings. All buildings have a lobby, a meeting and dining area, laundry facilities, leisure facilities (ping-pong and billiard tables and workout facilities).
Rooms are equipped with: private shower and WC, bed frame(s) (futon mattress excluded), desks, bookshelves, closet, refrigerator, central air-conditioning, cable TV output, and Internet and telephone connections. Students may purchase affordable futon mattresses and are advised to purchase sheets and towels after they arrive.

SUWANEE -- The cause of a double fatal wrong-way wreck in Suwanee on Wednesday night is still under investigation, but Suwanee Police have identified the people who died.
David Dowdy, 47, of Bogart was driving a red Pontiac, while Jean Strickland, 79, of Suwanee, was a passenger in a silver Mercedes when the vehicles collided in the eastbound lane at the intersection of McGinnis Ferry and Scales roads, Suwanee Police Capt. Clyde Byers said. Officers arrived at the scene about 6 p.m. and traffic was detoured for several hours after the incident.
"The cause is still under investigation, but it appears that one of the vehicles veered over the center line into the oncoming traffic," Byers said.
Byers said police could not yet determine if alcohol or drugs were involved, pending lab results. Byers also could not yet estimate the speeds of the vehicles in the wreck.

15 Seneca Niagara team members go bald to support cancerby jmaloni
Press release
What began as a simple idea earlier last week blossomed into a sight to see Sunday afternoon at Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel. A small group of servers at The Western Door: A Seneca Steakhouse learned about "Goin' Bald for Bucks" - a fundraising program through Roswell Park Cancer Institute - and decided to take part.
Cancer particularly "hit home" for them, as a former manager and a co-worker's 1-year-old daughter are affected. As word spread, so did the participants and the donations.
Altogether, 15 Seneca team members from throughout the casino - including six women - took part in Sunday's event, which was held at The Spa & Salon. Donations began coming in just a few days ago, but were already past a total of $5,000 as of Sunday afternoon.
The event was part of Seneca Gaming Corp.'s "Team Seneca Cares" goodwill program - which includes volunteering and fundraising activities for more than 30 worthy local causes each year.

Application security
The choice here is between two strong contenders: AppArmor and SELinux. Last year we picked SELinux, included in Red Hat and a favorite with the security community. This year we're going with AppArmor, due to its superior ease of use and, well, momentum. AppArmor continues to be bundled with Suse and has caught on with Ubuntu and Mandriva. AppArmor protects applications through the use of mandatory access controls: permissions set by the underlying system -- not by users -- that prevent coding flaws or bugs in applications from being manipulated for malicious purposes.

|CSS and MEN Blog Their Tour for BUST!
Brazilian punky groovesters CSS (above) are hitting the road with MEN, JD Samson's disco-flavored post-Le Tigre project/performance art collective (below), and you can bet that butts will be shaking and BUST will be stoked. To celebrate their North American tour together, both bands collaborated on a tour-exclusive, limited-edition split 7" (entitled We Are Friends 7") featuring original artwork and brand-new remixes of each other's songs. And to make this tour even more special, both bands have agreed to blog about it for BUST! MEN and CSS will swap blogging duties to bring you stories and photos from the road, and will be giving away tickets to their upcoming shows in select cities.
(Allison Michael Orenstein)
Here is MEN's tour itinerary (asterisks denote dates when they'll be joined by CSS):
MEN Tour Dates:
Both bands are badass in their own respects, so we're excited to see what will happen when they join forces. I can't imagine it will be anything less than a revolution-- not televised, of course, but live-blogged and sweat-soaked. After all, MEN seek to explore "the radical potential of dance music" by layering lyrics about sexual politics over infectious, funk-ified beats, and CSS (which stands for "Cansei de Ser Sexy," or "tired of being sexy") employ their brand of reggae-tinged electro-rock to great effect. Get warmed up with CSS's "How to Dance Tutorial" video for "Hits Me Like a Rock:"
And marvel at JD Samson's moves in MEN's scorching-hot "Off Our Backs" video:
Stay tuned to BUST.com to read the bands' blogs and find out how you can win tickets to the dance party.

Great Company, Great Prospects But Here is Why I'm Not Buying
Lee is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
There are fewer companies that report more details on trading performance than Fastenal (NASDAQ: FAST) and I think its results are a key barometer for how the US construction markets are trending. According to the company, sales typically comprise of 75-80% from residential construction customers and 20-25% from industrial so it is a good gauge of house building prospects.
In summary, there were signs of a slowdown in the Spring, but Fastenal reported a recent and tantalizingly strong uptick which has also been supported by things like the Architectural Billings Index. Will it last or will it be another variable data point in a mixed year? I happen to think the former.
Fastenal's Profit Drivers
I like the company because it has a number of good profit drivers. I'm going to discuss four of them here. First, as a leading player in a fragmented market, it has the opportunity to expand its store numbers and consolidate its industry. Second, this expansion should bring about improvements in working capital and inventory management. Third, it is expanding the percentage of sales from non-store sources (vending machines) and lastly it has upside kicker from an improvement in the residential construction market.
As ever, it is the last point that investors will focus on in the near term. I'll return to that point later but first I want to focus on the long term drivers, specifically what Fastenal's objectives are and how it is measuring up.
Fastenal's Long Term Objectives
I'm going to go back to the plan laid out in 2007 which I originally highlighted in an article linked here
- to continue growing our business at a similar rate with the new outside sales investment model
- to grow the sales of our average store to $125 thousand per month in the five year period from 2007 to 2012 (this has subsequently been pushed out to 2014)
- to enhance the profitability of the overall business by capturing the natural expense leverage that has historically occurred in our existing stores as their sales grow
- to improve the performance of our business due to the more efficient use of working capital (primarily inventory) as our average sales volume per store increases
- to generate 85% of earnings in operating cash flow
Essentially the objectives are typically the kind of thing you might expect from a business with an opportunity to improve operational performance with an expansion strategy. It's time to look at the numbers.
Fastenal's Immediate Prospects
First here are revenue growth numbers for stores open more than five years.
There is an obvious slowdown this year, but very recently there has been some cause for optimism. Fastenal helpfully breaks down monthly sequential sales movements and gives the comparison versus historical movements. I've graphed them for 2012 below…
…it's hard to get too excited about the September number because it has been such a variable year but the Architectural Billings Index has perked up recently too…
... or is this yet another false dawn for the housing market?
Possibly but the longer that the lack of new supply comes and prices keep rising then the more the likelihood that the housing market will see a sustained upturn. Indeed the most recent corporate news on housing is positive. Both Wells Fargo and JPMorgan (NYSE: JPM) are seeing better market conditions. In particular Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan, said that housing 'has turned a corner'. One would hope that he means it because he reduced the amount of provisions for loan losses. It's a nice way to improve profits, but it will bite JPMorgan back if housing makes a downturn. No matter it is another positive sign for housing.
Fastenal is more of a housing play than companies like Grainger (NYSE: GWW) or MSC Industrial (NYSE: MSM). Those companies have more of an industrial focus and for investors in those companies, here is the breakdown of revenue growth for industrial customers for Fastenal.
Longer Term Scorecard
Going back to the long term plans, a key aim is to increase sales via vending machines…
Above shows a strategy which is working well. In a sense Fastenal has to do this because competition is coming from the likes of Home Depot (NYSE: HD) who are trying to encroach on its market share in store. In addition, Home Depot is expanding online sales and, bolts and fasteners strike me as exactly the kind of product that can be easily shifted to e-commerce.
What about the plan to increase average sales per store?
Fastenal is increasing the amount sold per store (currently at $88.3k) and (as shown above) the percentage of stores selling above $100k, so increasing the number of stores is not having a detrimental effect on average sales per store. This suggests the company has plenty of room for growth. Will it hit the $125k target by 2014? It's possible but I suspect Fastenal will need some assistance from the economy.
The Bottom Line
I like Fastenal and I like prospects for the residential construction sector but it's very difficult to argue that the stock is good value. Fastenal's proposition of mid teens EPS growth coupled with significant long term operational improvements is a compelling offering, but investors always need to factor in a margin of safety in their assumptions.
I'm bullish about the housing market but not bullish about buying richly priced stocks, especially as it is far from clear how the economy will fare next year. Frankly an evaluation of EV/Ebitda of 18.7x is not cheap and nor is its current free cash flow yield anything to write articles home about. It's a good company but there is better value elsewhere.

Davis, Deborah
Adult Nonfiction ND237.S3 D38 2003
Summary: The story behind the legendary John Singer Sargent painting that propelled the artist to international renown but condemned his subject to a life of public ridicule. John Singer Sargent's Madame Xis one of the world's best-known portraits. As the Metropolitan's most frequently requested painting for loans, it travels to museums around the globe. The image of "Madame X" decorates book and magazine covers, greeting cards and screen savers. She's even been immortalized as a Madame Alexander doll. Few people, though, know the fascinating story behind the painting. "Madame X" was actually a twenty-three-year-old New Orleans Creole, Virginie Gautreau, who moved to Paris and quickly became the "it girl" of her day. All the leading artists wanted to paint her, but it was Sargent, a relative nobody, who won the commission. Gautreau and Sargent must have recognized in each other a like-minded hunger for fame. Unveiled at the 1884 Paris Salon, Gautreau's portrait did generate the attention she craved-but it led to infamy rather than stardom. Sargent had painted one strap of Gautreau's dress dangling from her shoulder, suggesting, to outraged Parisian viewers, either the prelude or the aftermath of sex. Her reputation irreparably damaged, Gautreau retired from public life, destroying all the mirrors in her home so she would never have to look at herself again. Why had Sargent chosen to portray her in such a provoc-ative manner? Was the painting, with the scandal it generated, the machination of a sexually conflicted man who desired a woman and a lifestyle he could never possess? Drawing on documents from private collections and other previously unexamined materials and featuring a cast of characters including Oscar Wilde and Richard Wagner, Straplessis an enthralling tale of art and celebrity, obsession and betrayal.

One of the most popular players on the Orlando Magic is no longer a member of the team. The Magic agreed to trade veteran shooting guard J.J. Redick just before the NBA's deadline on Thursday.
Redick, center Gustavo Ayon, and reserve point guard Ish Smith are heading to the Milwaukee Bucks, in exchange for guards Doron Lamb and Beno Udrih, as well as forward Tobias Harris, the Associated Press reports. Josh McRoberts was also traded to the Charlotte Bobcats.
Redick is in the last year of his $19 million contract. He was a restricted free agent when he signed an offer sheet with Chicago in the summer of 2010, but Orlando matched his deal. With no restrictions after this season, the Magic had no guarantee that he would re-sign. The team did not want to "overspend," or see him walk away this offseason with nothing to show for it.
Redick did not travel with the team to face the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday. He has said in the past week or so that he "understood" the difficult personnel decisions that had to be made.
The former Duke University all-American has been with Orlando since being drafted in the first round in 2006.

KALAMAZOO, MI (WTVB) - The story of the missing doctor from Kalamazoo keeps getting stranger. The family of Dr. Teleka Patrick has sacked their private eye and hired a new one after a series of revelations about their daughter have gone public, including that she was accused of stalking gospel recording artist Marvin Sapp of Grand Rapids.
The family of the 30-year old missing woman has also issued a statement that what their daughter did before December 5th when she was last seen doesn't help find her, and that they suspect foul play was involved, even if the police do not. They have hired a replacement private investigator who has more experience in missing person searches.
