Moms Get Free Admission to the Zoo
Mothers everywhere can enjoy a special day off this year at the Chattanooga Zoo. All moms are great and therefore deserve special recognition, which is why the Chattanooga Zoo is offering free admission to all moms on Sunday, May 12. Mothers who visit the Zoo with their children (or grandchildren) will receive free admission to the Zoo between the hours of 9 am and 5 pm.
While visiting the Zoo, guests can see other moms like Kasimir the Snow Leopard and Maggie the Cotton-Top Tamarin, taking care of their young, check out an Animal Encounters show at 2 pm and even take a ride on the endangered species carousel or better yet, a camel.
"All of us here at the Zoo are grateful for the hard work and care given
by moms, both human and animal alike," said Darde Long, Chattanooga Zoo
CEO. "What better way to honor moms everywhere then by giving them a
day to spend time with their family."

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Season 19 of "Dancing With the Stars" debuts with some surprisingly good performances. At least according to the judges. Alfonso Ribeiro from "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" is the high-scorer, getting across-the-board nines from the judges' table. Judge Bruno Tonioli (toh-nee-OH'-lee) says the prince was the king of the night with his jive. Seventeen-year-old Sadie Robertson from "Duck Dynasty" was just a couple of points behind. Even though she has no dance experience, the judges say she's a natural. PBS host and author Tavis Smiley got props from the judges, as did stoner comic Tommy Chong. At age 76, he was praised for his cool and smooth style. He came out smokin' in a low-rider, with old partner Cheech Marin at the wheel. Lea Thompson from the "Back to the Future" movies also had a good first outing.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Season 19 will be short for one of the "Dancing With the Stars" contestants. The season debut was last night, with the first elimination set for tonight. Olympian and track star Lolo Jones could get the bad news. She admits she blew her cha-cha after being distracted by a text message just before her performance. She had the second-lowest scores from the judges. Seventy-two-year-old fashion designer Betsey Johnson was at the bottom of the judges' leaderboard. She was tripped up by a feather boa during her performance. But the judges' were impressed by her ability to still do a full split. We'll find out tonight if the viewers agree.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Barbra Streisand has some advice for Jimmy Fallon -- don't give up your night job. Streisand made her first appearance in decades on the "Tonight Show" last night. Fallon noted she was last on the show 50 years ago, when Johnny Carson was the host. Her new album of duets, "Partners" is out today. Streisand and Fallon did a duet parody, with Fallon doing Elvis' part. Streisand jokingly asked if he really wants to be a singer. Streisand was Fallon's only guest and he insisted she sit in the host's chair at the desk. Fallon joked she might as well, because she'll never be coming back.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Police say they did everything by the book. But an actress who was in "Django Unchained" feels she was unfairly singled out by authorities when they answered a 911 call claiming there was lewd conduct in a parked car. Daniele Watts says she was just making out with her boyfriend, Brian Lucas, was fully clothed -- and that nothing out of the way was happening. She says that's why she refused to give her identification to police when they showed up. She and Lucas posted pictures on Facebook showing Watts crying and in handcuffs. Lucas says he suspects onlookers assumed Watts was a prostitute and he a client because she is black and he's white.
AP Entertainment Editor Oscar Wells Gabriel says Los Angeles police are defending their detention of an actress who was in "Django Unchained."
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Kerry Washington says it's a part of domestic abuse that often doesn't get the attention it should. The actress says financial abuse often keeps a woman from leaving a man who is hurting her physically. The "Scandal" actress is doing something to make it stop. She has done a Public Service Announcement about a program to help women who leave abusive relationships from having their jobs, credit or financial standing damaged. Washington says in nearly all cases of abuse, there is a financial component that often keeps a woman from taking her leave.
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Kerry Washington says if she seems to have her life in order -- it's because she has had great examples leading the way. The "Scandal" star says her mother and the show's creator Shonda Rhimes "are "really amazing role models and she-roes who have found ways to balance work and home life." She says all she has to do is look to them and try to keep up with the good things going on in her life these days. "Scandal" returns for a fourth season September 25.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Some people think of Atlanta as the place where the heat and humidity goes to spend the summer. But for the two stars of the movie "No Good Deed," it has the feel of home. Idris Elba says he likes shooting in Atlanta because his daughter lives there -- and she gets to spend a lot a time on the set. He also says having lived in Atlanta, he knows the city "pretty well." He says while it has an urban vibe, you can go elsewhere in town and feel "you're in the country." Taraji P. Henson says one thing she likes about Atlanta -- is the food. She also likes that you can look at the sky at night and actually see stars.
Idris Elba says there's more to Atlanta than humidity.

NEW YORK (AP) -- It didn't take long for the ladies of "The View" to sink their teeth into a controversial topic. All four cast members got into a discussion over domestic abuse -- in the wake of the Ray Rice videotape. They also tackled the subject of corporal punishment, after the Minnesota Vikings sat down Adrian Peterson for this past Sunday's game. Whoopi Goldberg is the only holdover on the show -- and she says the hosts had been asked in recent years to tone down talk on political issues. But apparently they aren't getting the same message in the post-Barbara Walters era.

|GRN Recycle Talk FAQ
Date: Thu, 30 Jan 97 11:59 WET From: email@example.com (Fred Friedman) Subject: Re: How does want starts a Recycling Programme for an organization (No Name)
January 30, 1997
Dear No Name,
The way that one starts a recycling program is to audit or survey your waste. About how much of x and y and z materials does the organization generate over a week or a month? Take notes, write out what materials and what amounts (and whatever sub-breakdowns) of generation happen at your organization.
As to your specific question, it depends on who is recycling your materials as to how many bins you get and whether you color code them or code them simply by putting labels on them. Most recyclers will prefer that you sort and separate newspaper from white paper from corrugated cardboard, keep metals and glass separate, etc. For example,
at US EPA s New England office, we collect white paper and newspaper in different bins (magazines with newspaper), as well as have glass and metals sorted in their own bins. We do not code them, only label them.
For the entire process, I recommend INFORM Inc s Business Recycling Manual.

Sony Online Entertainment president John Smedley told us - in regards to Everquest Next - that "we're not trying to make WOW2 or Everquest 2.5 – we're making something that we think will define the next generation of MMOs." Coming from the team that made the pioneering MMORPG Everquest, and which resurrected PlanetSide so successfully with PlanetSide 2, we don't doubt their ambitious intentions.
Everquest Next takes place in a parallel world to the Norrath of Everquest 1 and 2. Smedley reckons it's the "largest sandbox-style MMO ever designed".

CORPUS CHRISTI – For the second consecutive year Islanders Athletics and the Student Government Association (SGA) are partnering together to help Metro Ministries by holding a food drive during the month of November.
"The relationship with the SGA and Islander Athletics has always been strong but being able to help the community makes that bond even stronger," SGA President, Kimberly Garza said. "This partnership in helping Metro Ministries really shows our true Islander Spirit."
Students are encouraged to get together a team as an organization and donate canned food. At the men's and women's basketball doubleheader on Nov. 22 Islanders Athletics and SGA will announce the organization with the largest donation.
The winners of this competition will be recognized at the Feb. 11 men's basketball game vs. Sam Houston State and will receive a suite for the game.
"The goal of this event is for us to try and raise as much food as possible to donate to Metro Ministries while also making it a friendly competition amongst students and organizations," Garza added. "We hope that students will have fun while also giving back to those who need it the most."
Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to drop off canned food items at the following locations:
All student organizations participating in the drive are encouraged to label their donations by placing the canned goods in a bag identifying their organization in the box decorated as a Campbell's Soup can at these locations.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Haha the Lokey Pokey -- I love it.
I've only done this fight on normal difficulty, but successfully completed it with a level 75 pally healer (this was a PuG). As others have said, this fight isn't really about healing, it's about group coordination. One thing that I found to be helpful is the convenient white line running down the middle of the stairs. Just start by tanking Loken in the circle in front of his throne (make sure everyone moves in together and stays close) and then, when he begins to cast nova, run down the white line (this should ensure that you all stay pretty close together). Once you've avoided the nova, *let him come to you*. Warriors, you must resist the urge to charge, as this will put distance between you and the rest of the group. His threat doesn't reset, so he'll come right at you anyway. Just rinse and repeat, continuing down the white line (you can go back up if necessary, but he died before we got to the bottom). I assume the same strategy applies on heroic.
Oh, one other note. You may be tempted to use the columns to LoS the nova (like the Talon King Ikiss fight). Don't. It won't work. Just run down the white line. :)

'you'll struggle to get tyre off edge of rim and into middle area of rim'
Can be done with a spade... put square edge of spade on the bead and push down hard with your boot ..(as if you were digging into soil) sometimes you have to jump on the spade...but it works.
[This Reply has been modified by the Author]

The tricky part is breaking the bead.
First option,with help. Place the wheel level with the floor,steady the bike but lean the sidestand into the rim of the tyre to break the bead. Or better still,use a friends bike to achieve this.
Second option (only if you have a wooden beam or such like). Lay wheel flat as above,anchor a long beam under a tow bar,bottom sill of a car etc,then use a shorter block in between the beam and the tyre rim. Use the fulcrum of the pivot point to gain advantage when pulling down on the beam.
Third option,lay wheel flat and place something like a scaffold plank or similar end on right up to the tyre rim. Hold both items steady,then slowly drive a car wheel up the plank.
4th option,a bench vice.
When refitting the tyre to the rim,use either soapy water,or dry talcum powder to aid the bead seating correctly when inflating.
If you are inflating the tyre without the use of a high pressure airline,unscrew the valve core before you start. A good footpump will seat the tyre on the bead,providing the bead is either very well lubed with soapy water,or if fitting it dry,use plenty of talc.
Edit: Yep,and what Kam said. Forgot about that one.

Coding for home health services, rapid flu test
Q : What code do we use when the doctor certifies patient care plans while patients are in home health facilities?
- G0180 and G0179 are only billable by the physician who authorizes home healthcare and signs the plan of care.
- Diagnosis code(s) must match those on the home health plan of care.
- Place of service is the physician's office (POS 11).
- These codes do not apply to Medicaid services, durable medical equipment, and outpatient physical therapy.
- These codes are billed under Medicare Part B, which requires the physician to bill the co-pay.
Note: These codes are to be billed in monthly time increments. All services provided by a physician for a patient's care during a calendar month should be billed based on the total time spent, 15 to 29 minutes or 30 minutes or more.
Q : We have received differing advice as to how to bill the rapid flu test (87804). Should we bill this code as one unit or two?
A: If your office performs one test, using one sample and one device, to yield one analysis identifying a non-specific flu virus (neither A nor B), Type A flu virus only, or Type B flu virus only, then code using 87804 with one unit. Note: If two tests are run sequentially (one for Type A and the other for Type B), then two units should be reported.
If your office performs one test, using one sample and one device, to yield two separate, distinct results or analyses (including two results in a single analytical chamber) identifying Type A flu virus and Type B flu virus (positive or negative results for both), then code using 87804 with two units or append the 59 modifier to the second line item, as follows:
Whether you bill with two units or the 59 modifier will depend on the payer.

Whenever we have tried to talk to my sister, she becomes defensive and thinks we are blaming her.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
I am worried that my sister is escalating her violence toward her husband, and I also worry about their two young kids.
How can we encourage her to admit that she has problems and go to counseling, and how can I best support my brother-in-law and the children?
— Worried
Dear Worried: You may not be able to talk your sister into counseling, so you must focus your concern onto your brother-in-law and the kids.
They are victims of her rage and violence, and they need protection. Your brother-in-law should be prepared to take the kids and leave the home.
Counseling for him is a great idea, certainly if it helps clarify that he is a victim of domestic violence, but it might be too late to save this relationship. He should be counseled to call the police if his wife becomes physically violent. You should offer him emotional and other support to leave this dangerous relationship.
Counselors at the National Domestic Violence Hotline are available for all of you at 800-799-7233. Read more on the organization's Web site: ndvh.org.
Dear Amy: In fall 2008, I started a new job working part time. I received a letter of agreement stating that I would receive two weeks of vacation annually.
Now my boss says she made a mistake and meant to write "one week" in the agreement. She says that in 2010 I should only receive one week off.
While I understand that she cannot do this legally, as we have a contract, my concern is diplomacy.
How can I best communicate with my boss — without creating a wedge between us — that our original agreement needs to stand?
I love my job, have a relatively good relationship with my boss and don't want to rock the boat during these economically challenging times.
— Seeking Diplomacy
Dear Seeking: Unfortunately, in professional as well as personal dynamics, when a person makes a mistake that adversely affects someone else's life, the person who made it will sometimes proceed to penalize the innocent victim further to prove that the mistake was somehow justified.
Realistically, there may be no way for you to win redress from your boss, even though you have a contract. You'll have to assess the dynamic carefully. You could be delicate and diplomatic, but your boss could still find a way to retaliate because no matter what you say, she will feel cornered.
If you choose to discuss this, you should start by asking a question: "Could you clarify for me what's going on with my vacation time?"

BLEDSOE CO., TN (WRCB) -- The clock is ticking down for employees of the only teen correctional facility in the area.
The Taft center is closing due to budget cuts. Pink slips went out last week for the 168 employees.
The center has operated in Pikeville for nearly a century and has the best rehabilitation success rate in the state.
July 1 is the tentative closure date if Governor Bill Haslam's budget without funding for it passes. Many are scrambling to figure out their next move during what they say is a very emotional time.
"Taft's been good to me, but I thought 37 years would be worth more than what we've got," Robert Worthington said.
Robert Worthington has dedicated his life to turning kids' lives around at Taft.
"A lot of people say 'oh they're just juvenile delinquents.' No,they're just kids that didn't get a break," Worthington said.
Also known as "Coach Rooster," he says he gives young men, many competing gang members, that break on his football team where they learn teamwork, self-confidence, and structure. He says they rise to the occasion.
"I've done my job," Worthington said.
He says more than 80-percent get their diplomas or GED's and there's only a three-percent recidivism rate. That's why he doesn't understand why Governor Haslam wants it cut out of the budget leaving those who've made a difference with only two options.
"Here's your notice. You can go to the prison is you want, or retire," Worthington said.
Coach says many of his co-workers have no other choice than to go to the new prison, and in many cases, take a pay cut. He's going to retire early. So is Dale Hannah, an employee at Taft for 33 years.
"The new prison is not what it's about. That's housing people because they don't have an opportunity," Dale Hannah said.
Governor Haslam says closing Taft will save more than $4 million for the state.
"Evidently Nashville doesn't care. Evidently the dollar is more important that a child's life," Hannah said.
Many in Bledsoe County argue the savings.
"How much money will be saved if just one life in changed, is taken out of the system and they're put back as a useful citizen in the community," Bledsoe County Mayor Bobby Collier asks.
Mayor Collier says Bledsoe County already has an 11-percent unemployment rate and worries about the economic impact.
Again, those workers can be hired at the new Bledsoe County Jail, which will employ 400.

Coffee set to get cheaper in 2014
There's an oversupply of beans globally, which might lead to further price slides. But java purveyors aren't keen to give up any profits.
What will 2014 mean for the price of your daily cup (or two) of coffee?
If you purchase that morning beverage or afternoon pick-up from your local barista, you probably won't see much of a change.
But a continuing oversupply of coffee on a global scale probably means supermarket and wholesale prices will continue to drop.
The Wall Street Journal reports coffee prices fell 20 percent in 2013, down 49 percent since 2011.
A recent U.S. Department of Agriculture report, meanwhile, notes stockpiles are expected to rise in many coffee-producing countries, particularly in Brazil and Vietnam, while the demand from coffee-consuming countries remains "relatively flat."
And although an outbreak of "coffee rust" plant disease in Mexico and Central America is forecast to significantly reduce production in that region, any local decline, according to USDA, will be more than offset by coffee production elsewhere.
There are also concerns that coffee production will continue to rise this year.
"I don't think we've seen the absolute low for prices," Sterling Smith, a futures specialist at Citigroup, told The Journal. "There is a strong possibility that we will see record production in a new crop of coffee."
As previously reported on Benzinga, coffee over-production has been a boon to consumers of the high-end arabica beans that end up in the beverages java-drinkers purchase at chains like Starbucks (SBUX), Dunkin Donuts (DNKN) or Tim Hortons (THI).
And, of course, a lower commodity price plus unchanged prices on the menu means a windfall for the coffeehouse chains -- if they decide to not pass those savings on to their customers.
"The raw commodity, which is coffee, is going down. So your costs are going down, your revenues are staying about the same, which means your profitability is gonna go up," Duke University business professor Campbell Harvey recently explained on the American Public Media radio program, Marketplace.
Industry observers, meanwhile, are keeping a close watch on Brazil, the world's largest coffee producer, which could have another bumper crop in 2014 -- and which, in turn, could keep coffee prices sliding south.
More from Benzinga
I doubt the change in coffee prices will affect us much. I drink the generic stuff or whatever is on sale. Dollar General sells a pretty good generic coffee - so does Wal-Mart and Costco. As long as it's brewed, full of caffeine and strong as hell, I don't care.

SUWANEE -- The City of Suwanee has announced the winner of the 2010 Suwanee Day design competition, and, for the first time in the six-year contest, there was a repeat victor.
Lawrenceville resident Ashleigh James, who also won the 2008 contest for the design to be used for the logo of Suwanee's annual festival, took the cake among 78 other entries.
James' design includes a colorful depiction of Suwanee's Town Center, with city hall and images representing music, art, food and shopping subtly woven in.
"The selection panel was impressed the colors and multi-layered imagery in Ashleigh's winning design," city spokeswoman Lynne Bohlman DeWilde said. "We're excited to have Town Center, now that the main street front is complete, represented so imaginatively in this year's festival design."
James' design will be used on festival T-shirts and promotional materials, DeWilde said.
Suwanee Day 2010, the city's annual celebration of community, will be held on Sept. 18 at Town Center Square.

Statement-making LBDs, like the one Kate Mara wore to the New York City premiere of Side Effects, are often complemented by equally bold smoky shadows, but her makeup artist Nick Barose decided to go easy on the eyes and allow her Givenchy number to take center stage. "We decided to go with dark eyes that weren't overly-smoky with uncomplicated lips and cheeks," he said. "Kate doesn't like to look overly made up, so I try to keep her evening makeup light." Since the star was busy with press events earlier in the day, Barose, who based the look off of her dress and shoes, transitioned her day look with a liner and shadow combo. "We did an easy version of the smoky look using just black eyeliner to define, then I smudged shimmery black shadow around the eyes," he added. This is an easy way to revamp your daytime makeup for after-work drinks, or if you want to experiment with a smoky eye that isn't too severe. Barose finished by blotting a sheer red color onto Mara's lips as a stain for a pop of color.

APHA and the Public Health Foundation (PHF) have worked collaboratively to develop this tool to help health departments and their partners assess and improve the performance of their policy activities. While other performance measurement and evaluation guides exist, this is the first tool to focus explicitly on performance measurement for public health policy.
The first section of the tool gives a brief overview of the role of health departments in public health policy, followed by an introduction to performance measurement within the context of performance management. It also includes a framework for conceptualizing the goals and activities of policy work in a health department. The second section of the tool consists of tables with examples of activities that a health department might engage in and sample measures and outcomes for these activities. The final section provides three examples of how a health department might apply performance measurement and the sample measures to assess its policy activities. Download the tool. Download the template that health departments can fill-in with their own activities and measures.

According to a recent SAMHSA report, almost half of the
admissions to substance abuse treatment among people
age 50 and up were specifically for alcohol abuse (48
percent of 164,000 admissions in 2003).
The report, Older
Adult Alcohol Admissions: 2003, also notes that
older adults in this age group admitted to substance
abuse treatment solely for alcohol abuse were more likely
to be first-time treatment participants than were persons
admitted for other reasons.
The full report, from continued analysis of the 2003

It has been shown that there is extensive inflammation in the leptomeninges in patients with secondary progressive MS. This is associated with increased sub-pial demyelination, neuronal loss and progression of the disease course. It is not known why this occurs so this study looked at the possibility that pro-inflammatory cytokine production within the meninges may be key to this process.
A model of sub-pial cortical grey matter demyelination was set up in rats. Post-mortem CSF and dissected cerebral leptomeningeal tissue from MS patients was used to look at tumour necrosis factor (TNF), interferon gamma protein and messenger RNA levels.
There was increased expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF and interferon gamma in the meninges of patients with SPMS. There was extensive sub-pial demyelination and infiltration of lymphocytes into the meninges after the rats were injected with TNF and interferon gamma and they were pre-immunised with a subclinical dose of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein. There was significant microglial/macrophage activation present in a gradient from the pial surface to the deeper cortical layers. Interestingly, demyelination was not seen in the animals immunized with incomplete Freund's adjuvant and injected with cytokines.
This study demonstrates the role of pro-inflammatory molecules in the meninges involved in cortical demyelination in MS.

Shenandoah – Strongly Spent, 50 Years of Poetry
Volume 53, Numbers 1-2
Spring/Summer 2003
If almost every issue of Shenandoah has a table of contents judiciously sprinkled with well-known famous poets, this special double-length, 50-year anniversary issue reads like a who's-who of literary stars - Rita Dove, Robert Lowell, Maxine Kumin, W.H. Auden, Carolyn Kizer. I'd be surprised if they could squeeze any more award-winning poets in here. I loved the witty juxtapositions throughout, like Andrew Hudgins' "The Gospel Villanelle" across the page from Langston Hughes' "Ballad of the Two Thieves" – evidence that someone was paying attention to the smallest details of layout. Even works by less famous contemporaries sparkle in this collection. This is a great cross-section of contemporary American poetry, worth special-ordering (for the special, double-issue price of $16) even if you don't read this review regularly. The 200-plus pages of poetry are sandwiched by two essays, Richard Wilbur's "Poetry and Happiness" and R.T. Smith's "Afterword," which was full of fond memories of the poems and poets in this issue. It was hard to pick my favorite single quote out of so many wonderful poems, but I liked the following lines from "Poem" by e.e. cummings: "when are we never,but forever now / (hosts of eternity;not guests of seem) / believe me,dear,clocks have enough to do / without confusing timelessness and time." [Shenandoah, Washington and Lee University, Troubadour Theater, 2nd Floor, Box W, Lexington, VA 24450-0303. shenandoahliterary.org/index.html] ― JHG
Volume 29, Number 1
Spring 2003
This issue of Ploughshares, guest-edited by accomplished poet Carl Phillips, features diverse works of poetry and short fiction that are drawn together by emotional intensity. For instance, these lines from Peter Gordon's "Birds of Paradise" illustrate the tense melancholy that epitomizes the story: "They shot him en masse, the air crackling and popping, the skinny birds pecking at the dirt flying in all directions like confetti. // A few days after this story was relayed in a letter from Rita's cousin Gloria, Oscar started appearing in Rita's dreams, always acting out the same scene, showing up at our back door wearing a blood-spattered white shirt and holding a bouquet of birds of paradise. The not-quite fresh flowers jut out from the cylindrical newspaper wrapping like baby bird heads, their pointy beaks and orange-yellow markings making them look almost predatory." Other notable pieces include Lise Haines' story, "A Glue-Related Problem," Rita Dove's poem "Bolero," and Jennifer Kronovet's poem, "Her Version, with Interruptions."

The Journal
Volume 27.1
Spring/Summer 2003
The Journal, produced by Ohio State University, celebrates its thirty-year anniversary with a mix of poetry and short prose pieces. Nothing too experimental here, but you can expect satisfying and solid writing throughout. I particularly liked Carol Potter's poems, with startling lines like these from "If You Could Call It God" – "If you could call it God, you could make a map of it. / Elements combining with elements. The comfort / of molecules." - as well as these from "Tantrum Girl" – "One might envy the body of a child. / That fresh skin. Those limber limbs. / Bend this way and that so smoothly." Miriam Gershow's story "Little Girl," the winner of the AWP Intro Journals project, made for a riveting read as well.

Grain Magazine
Volume 31, Number 1
Summer 2003
With this issue, established Canadian literary magazine Grain celebrates its thirtieth anniversary, and displays a diversity of voice in the pages of poetry, fiction, and prose. Poems range from highly experimental to formal, and the short stories have almost nothing in common except a certain confidence of voice. This edition was a pleasure to read, and as an American, it was welcome exposure to mesmerizing Canadian voices like Bert Almon, Michael Hetherton, Lorna Crozier and Aviva Luria. Luria's poem, "Concrete," has almost song-like lyricism: "his mother plucks shards of glass / from the wounds / like pits from the flesh of fruit. / she touches the earth, desiring," while Michael Hetherton's short fiction piece, "Fatherland," has a rapturous plainness in the terse descriptions of landscape and characters.

Crab Creek Review
Spring/Summer 2003
This slim review showcases new voices from all over, but many from the Pacific Northwest. I like the ambition of this issue, even if some pieces lean slightly towards the unintelligible in their reach towards the experimental – as these lines from "idiot i" by A.K Allin may indicate: "by prodding out / someone's soil / unto nevernothingness /selling goods/ to wherever town / is everlastingless." Sometimes the experimental succeeds in being whimsical and thought-provoking, like Tom Chandler's poem "Progress Reports." If you like more down-to-earth, narrative pieces, make sure to read Nile Lanning's story "Counting" and the poems "A Night So Pure the Love of God Seemed Real" by Fernard Roqueplan and "One Kind Boy" by Kevin Miller, the following from which I really enjoyed: "He remembers all the Sharons...sure he will be there when a sudden wind / makes them shudder, when betrayal / leaves them leaning towards the part of him / he's worked to scar with cuts of his own." [Crab Creek Review, P.O. Box 840, Vashon, WA 98070. E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com. Single issue $6.00. www.crabcreekreview.org] ― JHG
Gulf Coast
Volume 15, Number 2
Summer/Fall 2003
This luxuriously sizeable journal held interesting reviews, interviews, stories, poems and artwork, but one thing that I noticed that set it apart from other journals was that almost every single contributor had more than a page or two devoted to them - poets had three or four poems apiece, and the short stories and interview were long enough to be substantial. Especially with poets, this extended treatment of the writer's work helps the reader get beneath the surface of their writing, and adds to our overall comprehension of the poems. So kudos to Gulf Coast for this practice! Another thing that surprised me was that although this review has a regional name and hails from Texas, it had an international flavor, with poets and writers from places as diverse as Alaska, Cuba, and Krakow. In addition to the creative works, I enjoyed the fascinating interview with poet Czeslaw Milosz, who spoke at length about the influences of communism and World-War II-era French intellectuals such as Camus and Sartre in his work. Also provocative were the photographs in the center of the issue, reminiscent of bio lab 101, which juxtapose sensual colors and textures with the cold scientific subject matter.

Glimmer Train
Number 25
Summer 2003
If you only plan to read a few fiction journals this summer, be sure to include this one. Every story is worth your time. In this issue's interview, a regular Glimmer Train feature, Melissa Pritchard tells Leslie A. Wooten "stories repose deep within our flesh." These stories certainly got under my skin – original, beautifully composed, and for the most part ambitious, at least in terms of their subject matter. The most impressive work: three stories by relative newcomers (meaning, no-book-yet) N.S. Koenings, Chieh Chieng, and Laurence de Looze, all, coincidentally, set abroad, in Tanzania, Malaysia, and Argentina. This issue's international component also includes another regular feature, a column by Siobhan Dowd, member of the PEN Writer's-in-Prison Committee in London, writing about jailed "cyberdissident" Zouhair Yahaoui in Tunisia. Every piece here has something to recommend it, the engaging and wholly credible voice of the young narrator in "Midnight Bowling" by Quinn Dalton, or the impossibly tender, controlled, but never sloppy emotion in Lisa Graley's story of an old man's losses, one of the finest stories about aging I've seen. Nevertheless, this issue would be worth reading, if not owning, for the first story alone, N.S. Koening's "The Accident, or, The Embrace." Nearly every sentence is as masterful and original as the first: "By the time Gilbert Turner's wife had seen that the walnut-colored, scarlet-stripped log her daughter Agatha sat stroking on the banks of India Street was no log, but a leg which had come loose from its owner, it was too late for her to scream." According to the bio notes, this story is also the opening chapter of Koening's novel-in-progress. One of the pleasures of reading journals like Glimmer Train is discovering new writers, and there isn't a writer here I wouldn't welcome finding in any table of contents again soon.

Seneca Review
Volume XXXIII, Number 1
Spring 2003
Eclecticism is a highlight of this issue, which features work by more than twenty poets, including several translations, and several lyric essays, a hybrid genre for which the Seneca Review is known. From informal and conversational ("I have been staring down the newspaper weather map / for at least a coffee drip's diameter now," from a poem by Jasper Bernes), to the more abstract and lyrical ("I speak spark to the sun" from a poem by Joshua Corey), there are some fine poems here. Among my favorites are poems as wildly different as Lynn Sermin Meskill's classically themed pieces "Lion-Gate at Mycenae" and "The Son of the Last Otroman" and Jasper Bernes' "Possum Gambit" – "Best worse days the depressives play chess, / refreshed by fenced-in celebration." Nothing compares, however, to the translations of work by Claudia Lars, Fan Chengda, Carlos Edmundo de Ory, and Yehuda Amichai – extraordinary, memorable poems, beautifully translated. The translated poems represent, deliberately it would seem, the same variety in tone I find in the rest of the issue, de Ory's "machine built for pain" balanced by Chengada's "peach trees and plum with nothing to say."

American Literary Review
Volume XIV, Number 1
Spring 2003
It's hard to imagine two more unlikely pieces together– Neela Vasawni's powerfully quiet story of war, exile, and music, "Bolero," and Tracee Lee's aggressively brilliant "New York Amnesia." What they have in common – mad, poetic images of New York and their appearance in this somewhat uneven issue of American Literary Review. Vasawni's exceptional story, with a delightful poem embedded in it, is the best of five stories here, though Julia Ridley Smith's "Mrs. West" is also extremely fine. It's hard not to appreciate the skill it takes to pull off writing as pleasing as this about a subject (taking care of a parent with Alzheimer's) that sometimes seems all too familiar these days: "Her world was a perpetual summer, apparently, which sure was nice for her, but here, in the real world, where was Mrs. West supposed to get a perfectly ripe garden tomato every day of the year?" In addition to Lee's tense, noisy, crowded, exquisite couplets about New York, this issue features the work of fifteen other solid poets, most fairly well established, including Virgil Suárez and Mark Irwin. "The Hunger Artist," by Joanne Jacobson is a well written, if predictable, essay about finding if not comfort, then refuge in an obsession with food. A review of Joan Frank's Boys Keep Being Born is so entertaining as to make me wish there were more than one review here. [American Literary Review, P.O.

The Antioch Review
Volume 61, Number 2
Spring 2003
This issue's theme is "In Search of Memory" which, writes editor Robert S. Fogarty, "plays a defining role for both our essayists and storytellers as they rework the past to make memory speak." These substantial pieces by highly credentialed writers hardly need much introduction, though, and are consistent with this journal's reputation for showcasing quality and talent. Nonfiction and fiction prose by such writers as Floyd Skoot, Joseph Goetz, Geoffrey Becker, Aimee Bender, and Rick DeMarinis, is followed by the poetry of such poets as Angela Ball, Eamon Grennan, and Alan Michael Parker, among others, and a half-dozen illuminating reviews. I was particularly taken with Karl Iagnemma's lighthearted but skillful story, "Kingdom, Order, Species" about a female forestry student who finds a way to meet her long-time idol, the outmoded writer of her favorite botany textbook. This issue also introduces Russian poet and writer Viktor Sosnora who is relatively unknown outside of his own country, despite his prestige there, and whose clever and sardonic voice is worth getting to know. And an essay by Gordon Lish, deceptively humorous, dazzles and disarms: "Don't you see what art is – and how it is, for all our sakes, all there is?" [The Antioch Review, Antioch University, 150 E.

Red Rock Review
Spring 2003
"Those readers who would like to enjoy our literary selections, please skip immediately to our table of contents," advises the "Disclaimer" that precedes associate editor Todd Moffett's long editorial about "Baseball Reform." I took the advice and proceeded directly to the "literary selections" which include eight stories, poems by three dozen poets, and several reviews by editor Richard Logsdon. I found the poetry more memorable than the fiction here. My judgment must coincide with the editors who printed one the finest poems in the issue on the back cover, "Shattered Ruby" by Christine Boyka Kluge: "They have her cornered, / not knowing / diamonds and pearls are sewn / to the ribs of her ivory corset." The titles of many of the poems in this issue, oddly enough, are as evocative and original, if not more so, than many of the poems: "When My Haiku Was Accepted by Haikus Unlimited, the Editor Asked for a Brief Biography to Put in the Contributors Notes" (James Doyle), "Afterwards, Baby Blue" (Laurie Byro), "Certainly in Los Angeles" (Rich Furman), "Starting with a Line in a Room with Picassos."

Room of One's Own
Volume 26, Number 1
One of Canada's oldest literary magazines, Room of One's Own publishes "short stories, poems, art, and reviews by, for, and about women." "Worth Living" is this issue's theme, which editorial collective member Zoya Harris explains in her introduction is as much about choices as it is about circumstances. Every piece here feels necessary, and many feel urgent. A few are deeply moving, including Jalina Mhyana's poem, "August 6, 1946": "Women who wore kimonos on August 6, 1945 / still have the flowered designs of the cloth / photographed onto their aged flesh- / cherry blossoms that never fade or fall, / a promise of eternal springtime / branding them as Japanese." There is joy, too, "worth living" among these difficult, pressing, themes, as fundamental and urgent, in its own way, as the darker subjects. And humor, too: "Her chronic need to tell jokes / is a personality trait. / But that was before my grandmother announced / to a table full of dinner guests / that my mother wore a padded bra. / After that it was called a disorder." ("Don't Ask My Grandmother for Advice" by Sherry MacDonald) I was surprised to find reviews principally about mainstream books, reviewed in dozens of publications, and would have liked to see more reviews on books from small presses. On the other hand, these are straightforward, honest reviews that inspired me to read a few books I'd ignored or overlooked, including Nadine Gordimer's novel The Pickup. [Room of One's Own, P.O.

Volume 23, Number 2
When you pick up this one, give yourself plenty of time – it's an exciting issue with a terrific mix of newer and more established writers and numerous insightful, deftly composed reviews. The writing throughout is sophisticated, savvy, skillful. A relatively new feature of the journal is the introduction of lesser-known poets by better known writers. My favorite is Dan Bellm's choice of Helen Wickes, who needn't worry about the mediocrity she bemoans in "The Chaperone:" "My mediocrity accompanies me to the café / coughing gently when I think or speak." Much, though not all of the poetry in this issue is edgy, ostensibly casual, conversational. Yet, none of it is predictable or trite, and there are some truly breathtaking moments, for example, "To Examine a Dead Thing" by Rusty Morrison: "Follow the expenditures of gray, limitless in each strewn / feather. Travel the small pain behind your ear. / Concede to an invasive, perhaps usable, / dismay." There isn't a poem among the several dozen here I don't want to read again and again. There is nothing stale or tired or trivial. This issue is heavier on poetry than prose, though the prose, several pieces of short fiction and three substantial essays, is of equal interest and caliber. Particularly noteworthy is an essay by Geoff Bent "Fabricating History: The Paradigm That Ruined 20th Century Art." Whether one agrees with him or not about what creates "lasting appeal," it is a pleasure to find serious, thoughtful art criticism that is also accessible, readable.

Welcome, you are at
Ever dreamed of going behind the scenes for intimate singing sessions with world-famous artists like Florence and the Machine, 50 Cent, David Guetta and Alicia Keys?
MySpace is offering music lovers the chance to enter the personal spaces of a whole host of artists –including Pixie Lott, Lostprophets, Chipmunk, Nelly Furtado and N-Dubz – as they discuss tracks that have touched their lives, and influenced their careers.
UK songbird Florence Welch, from Florence and the Machine, delivers an emotional rendition of "Don't let Go" by En Vogue and explains the impact this song had on her early years. "You know when you're on holiday and you listen to a song on repeat… I remember being like 11 and listening to that. Let's play that one." Welch's other choices were Madonna's "Borderline" and "The Rat" by The Walkmen.
Alicia Keys takes us to into the middle of a family get-together for a wicked rendition of "Let's Stay Together" by Al Green, "Welcome to Jamrock" by Damian 'Jr Gong' and "Pretty Young Thing" by Michael Jackson.
We join French dance sensation David Guetta in a record store where he explains that Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" was the track responsible for leading him into the DJ world.
In addition to swooning over intimate music sessions, users can also create their own, very adventurous, clips through MySpace's Fan Video program. After logging in through MySpace or Facebook, fans select an artist and the program creates a mini-video using a profile photo. 50 cent puts a frame on his wall that features a user's photo, Alicia Keys sings a heartfelt piano track while admiring a user's picture atop her piano, and Florence Welch sticks a Polaroid shot of the user on her mirror, signing it "Love Florence."In a digital world that's heavy in user-generated content and a fascination with music and entertainment, these new MySpace projects have been unleashed at the perfect time.

Henkel with strong performance in fourth quarter
With its strong business performance in the fourth quarter of 2009 Henkel further continued the positive trend of the prior quarters. Main contributors to these good results were the Laundry & Home Care and Adhesive Technologies business sectors which both developed better than expected. Adjusted return on sales (EBIT) further increased in the fourth quarter to 12.4 percent. As a result, Henkel concluded the 2009 recession year better than anticipated and, with the following preliminary figures, clearly exceeded the analysts' earnings estimates as known to Henkel at the current time.
According to preliminary figures, Henkel generated sales in fiscal 2009 of around 13.57 billion euros. In organic terms, that is to say adjusted for foreign exchange and acquisitions/divestments, sales decreased by 3.5 percent compared to the prior-year level. Operating profit (EBIT) increased from 779 million euros to 1,080 million euros. Included in this figure are one-time gains/charges and restructuring charges of 284 million euros. Adjusted operating profit (EBIT) decreased from 1,460 million euros to 1,364 million euros. Earnings per preferred share (EPS) amounted to 1.40 euros. Adjusted earnings per preferred share declined from 2.19 euros to 1.91 euros.
At around 4.13 billion euros, sales of the Laundry & Home Care business sector were slightly below the prior-year level. Organic sales growth was 2.9 percent. Operating profit (EBIT) was at 501 million euros. Adjusted operating profit (EBIT) increased considerably from 450 million euros to 530 million euros.
Having generated overall stable sales of around 3.01 billion euros and organic sales growth of 3.5 percent, the Cosmetics/Toiletries business sector generated operating profit (EBIT) of 387 million euros in fiscal 2009. Adjusted operating profit (EBIT) increased to 387 million euros from 379 million euros in the previous year.
The Adhesive Technologies business sector registered a decrease in sales in fiscal 2009 to some 6.22 billion euros. In organic terms, sales decreased by 10.2 percent. Operating profit (EBIT) was at 290 million euros. Adjusted operating profit (EBIT) decreased from 680 million euros to 506 million euros.
For fiscal 2010 Henkel is confident of again outperforming its relevant markets in terms of organic sales growth (i.e. after adjusting for foreign exchange and acquisitions/divestments). Henkel expects both adjusted* operating profit (EBIT) and adjusted* earnings per preferred share (EPS) to improve noticeably compared to the prior-year figures.
Henkel will be publishing precise figures on the fourth quarter performance and on fiscal 2009 in its Annual Report, which is due to be published on February 25, 2010.
*Adjusted for one-time gains/charges and restructuring charges

Perfect location for a large family gathering
We had a cousins retreat with 24 people and this lake house was the perfect location for our group! Sam was really pleasant to work with during the booking process and answered all of my questions. Once we arrived at the house, everything was just as you see in the pictures. Lorenzo, the groundskeeper, was really helpful and friendly. The kitchen was well stocked and the games and amenities were perfect! We would definitely book again in the future! Thanks for making our weekend memorable!
Quaint and comfortable
Our family went on it's first big vacation that included grandmother, her 4 daughters and spouses, plus all the grandchildren and one great grand. We definitely maxed out the cabin but found it still very much suited our needs. The couples and small children took bedrooms and the teenagers slept in the loft. I did not personally climb into the loft which is currently only accessible by a ladder but heard that Dave plans to build stairs on which will make it much easier. The boys were thrilled to use it though. The beds were quite comfortable and I was very impressed. The cabin is well built and great thought has been put into it. I took my three month old baby and was grateful for the solid walls that allowed for limited sound carrying. Combined with our sound machine you could hardly hear anything from outside our bedroom. It was also helpful for those who wanted to sleep in a little when the early birds were ready to be up. We found the kitchen well stocked with all the basic equipment you could need and there is comfortable seating for several in the main living space. We really enjoyed all sitting on the porch though and the unseasonably cool air. The lake is not currently full enough to enjoy many water activities close to the lodge but the adventurers all packed up in the car and headed to nearby Inks Lake State Park and spent the day swimming and cliff jumping. The little ones absolutely loved the darling playset and zipline. There was also room for some frisbee and football and the last night there we had a game of volleyball. All in all we had a great weekend and this was a fabulous place for us. With our ride range in budgets from newlyweds and small children to singles and established incomes this property helped us achieve our goal of a fun getaway while pinching pennies. We managed to spend very little on groceries and cook our meals there. When we had questions Dave was very helpful and it is obvious that he takes great care of the place. I would highly recommend this lodge to anyone and we would definitely return. Thanks so much, Dave!
Awesome July Fourth Weekend
We stayed 4 nights at this wonderful property with a party of 22(average age about 26) and everyone slept comfortably. Stephen was excellent at keeping in touch in spite of the holiday weekend and responding to our every need. I would echo the other reviewer who advised bringing some water shoes to get down to the water - the levels in Lake Buchanan were low and the beach is quite rocky, but no fault of this property. Overall, I very highly recommend this place - it is clean, has beautiful views, and is perfect for a large group. The owner was in touch by email and phone from before we even stepped in the door. Thanks for a wonderful holiday getaway - we all hope to make a trip back very soon.

For more than a decade, Towson's last regular-season home game has been a sleepy, sad event.
It usually signaled the end of another long, losing season and the end of mostly disappointing college basketball careers for seniors playing their last game.
For this year's Tigers, there is no postseason after former players couldn't adhere to the rules governing the NCAA's Academic Progress Rate. But there is plenty of hope for an increasingly bright future.
In closing their first winning season in 17 years with a sloppy, but satisfying 67-64 victory over Hofstra on Saturday at Towson Center, the Tigers made history by completing the biggest single-season turnaround in NCAA history.
A few dozen fans among the announced 4,119 in attendance, the largest crowd of the season, rushed the court moments after Hofstra guard Stevie Mejia's corner 3-point shot to force overtime fell short.
Many in the crowd stayed around as Towson athletic director Mike Waddell celebrated the team's turnaround and commemorated the last men's basketball game to be played in Towson Center before the university opens Tiger Arena next season.
After going 1-31 in Pat Skerry's first season as coach, Towson finished 18-13 overall and 13-5 in the Colonial Athletic Association this season. The 17 1/2-game improvement broke the previous NCAA record of 17 held by Mercer (2002-03) and Texas-El Paso (2003-04).
"When we reflect back on this, it's really an amazing accomplishment, to set an NCAA record," Skerry said. "I, as a young coach, have certainly learned what pride means, and these guys have it. To know you can't go to the postseason and every day work that hard and play that hard has taught me a lot. My respect level and appreciation for these guys will last forever."
Junior forward Marcus Damas, who along with freshman guard Jerome Hairston led the Tigers with 17 points each, said that when the crowd rose late in the game to help lift their team, "that's when it really hit us, we were a minute and 50 seconds from making history. When they rushed the court, that's the greatest feeling in the world."
Two hours earlier, Skerry sat outside the team's locker room, nervously tapping his foot. The fiery coach seemed nervous, and admitted so later.
But once he got his players together in the locker room, his message was clear.
"This is our championship game," Skerry told his players. "The league, the NCAA, they can take away our postseason, but they can't take away today, they can't take away the next 40 minutes, they can't take away history, either."
Hofstra (7-24, 4-14) nearly did. Skerry's season-long message was about playing for pride, but it was Towson's scrappy opponent that seemed to be living up to its nickname. The Pride, who came into the game with 13 losses in its last 15 games, built a 22-12 lead in the first half and found itself up, 35-28, early in the second half.
Towson senior center Bilal Dixon first career 3-point shot started a 19-4 run that seemingly helped the Tigers take control of the game, but Hofstra wouldn't go away, and used a 12-2 run of its own to take a 53-50 lead with a little over five minutes left.
Skerry was more than a little concerned. In retrospect, Skerry blamed himself and credited Hofstra for the way his team played in spurts.
"I wanted the game bad, maybe too bad," Skerry said. "I maybe made my guys too tight today. They certainly wanted it bad. … When you wanted something bad in sports, it doesn't always happen right away. But I thought our kids really grinded it late and hung in there."
Jerrelle Benimon certainly did. After missing the past two days practice because of a staph infection in his leg, the junior forward willed the Tigers to victory. Benimon scored 10 of his team's final 17 points, including a pair of three-point plays, one with 1:08 left that gave Towson a 62-55 lead.
The favorite to win the Colonial Athletic Association's Player of the Year award — "if he's not unanimous, someone should lose his voting privileges," Skerry joked — Benimon finished with 14 points and 13 rebounds, his NCAA-leading 19th double-double of the season.
"He was a warrior today. He was a soldier today. He's still on the mend, but he fought through it," Skerry said.
Said Benimon: "My shot wasn't falling [3 of 10], so I thought I'd just get to the free-throw line more. It worked. I was hitting my free throws [8 of 8]."

PITTSBURG -- Pitt State's pulled off a win in a low scoring 51-48 win over Fort Hays State on Saturday afternoon (Jan. 19). Despite trailing most of the second half, the Gorilla bench was crucial to never letting the Tiger lead get to be more than six in the game.
Fort Hays State first took the lead with 2:44 left in the opening half and held it for all but a minute in the second half before a three by Alexa Bordewick, her first points of the game, tied the game at 45-45. A jumper by Kate Lehman on the other end gave the Tigers the lead back. Lizzy Jeronimus scored a layup to tie the game again.
The Gorillas and Tigers traded free throws to keep the game tied, but a huge layup by Jeronimus with just 20 seconds on the clock gave Pitt State a lead, 50-48. Lehman missed a shot on the other end and Jeronimus grabbed a defensive rebound. She was fouled and hit the first of two free throws with just four seconds left to give Pitt State the 51-48 win.
Fifty-one is the lowest point total by the Gorillas in any game this season.
Pitt State's bench outscored its starters by one, 26-25, led by Morgan Westhoff who led all players with 14 points. Kylie Gafford was the team's third leading scorer, coming off the bench to contribute eight points and three blocked shots. Lizzy Jeronimus was the second leading scorer, recording her third double-double of the season with 13 points and 13 rebounds. Lauren Brown shared the lead in blocked shots with three. Brigit Hesser came off the bench to contribute a career-high six assists on the game.
The Pitt State defense was able to hold Fort Hays to a 22 percent shooting percentage for the game, and hold its leading scorer, Lehman, to just four points for the game. Lehman did grab 13 rebounds. Melissa Nelson led the Tigers with 10 points and Kaiameka Brown added nine.
Pitt State had the largest lead of the game, leading by 10, 13-3, with 13:10 in the first half. From there, the Tigers went on a 10-2 run that left the game tied 15-15 with 4:36 remaining in the half. The Gorillas hung on to the lead a little longer until a Nelson three with 2:44 left in the half gave the Tigers their first lead.
The Gorillas will play their next three games on the road, with the next game against the Northeastern State Riverhawks in Tahlequah, Okla. on Wednesday, January 23 at 5:30 p.m.
