The injured were Nemo Bancroft, 33, and George Smith, 46, of Jackson, the former suffering from a fractured leg, a broken knee cap and cuts about the head and Smith had face and scalp' wounds. They were riding with Robt. Cogswell, 37, also of JaCkson, who was treated for cuts and bruises. H. G.

Alspaugh, 48, also of St. Louis, suffered a rib fracture. Mr. Alspaugh was treated for cuts and bruises. As near as we can ascertain, the ■accident occurred when a car driven by R. J. McCartney of Flint, stalled for lack of gas and was being pushed off the pavement when the second car came up. The driver had slowed down and had turned his wheels to pass the stalled car when another hit It in the rear and forcing it out into the path of an auto coming from the opposite direction. A general pileup ■was the result. Although the three cars were considerably damaged the stalled car escaped without a scratch.

Miss Green was returning from Harrison with Miss Mary Ellen White, who was driving her car, and upon nearing the club house, did not see the Knight ear in time to avoid the crash. Miss Green was taken to the Clare County General hospital, where it was found she had lost several front teeth and was suffering from a sever- ly cut lip. After being treated, she was released and' was taken to her home. Although both cars were badly damaged Miss White and Mr. Knight escaped with only slight bruises. ■™~^g*5*- CONRAD WALKER RECEIVES APPOINTMENT MICE COM.

CHRISTMAS TREE CUTTING CHECKED BY STATE LAW Unlawful to Transport Tree in Gar Without Bill of Sale It's still 28 days to Christmas but not that long before the cutting of "Christmas trees" will start. And from the conservation department comes a reminder about the law which prohibits cutting, removing or transporting within the state, for the purpose of sale, trees, evergreen boughs, shrubs or vines without the written consent of the owner of the land on.which they were grown. All of which means that it is unlawful to go into any lik"'ely looking woods and chop down a Yuletide decoration without first getting permission from the owner of the property. Anyone carrying a tree in his car must have a bill of sale or other documentary evidence showing ownership, _ ■ Violation of the statute pertaining may bring a fine of $25 to $500 and a jail sentence not exceeding 90 days.

We give the readers of The Sentinel a descriptive outline of this most modern hospital so greatly needed in northern Michigaii,,and'we. join in expressing words of praise to those who were instrumental in accomplishing this most worthy project. The Northern, Michigan Tuberculosis Sanatorium, located at Gaylord, Will -officially o^en for patients' Fri- tendent J. L. Egle, who has delayed the opening until every piece of needed equipment was on hand. Fourteen years ago a few tuberculosis-conscious people gathered at the AuSable Club at Gaylord, among them being Sen. P. M. Brown of St. •Ignace, to take cognizance of the vital need of proper hospitalization for the many lives being snuffed out in the 32 counties of northern Michigan, including five counties in the upper pen* insula in which there was not a bed for the care or treatment of victims of the White Plague, ^ . An organization was perfected, .^working with the Michigan Tuberculosis Association, to try and- remedy this condition in some mannef, though little headway was made. Nine years ago Fred R. Ming, state representative, who had been vitally interested in doing something, began work in Lansing to create a demand for hospitalization. Seven years ago, with the passage of the Malt Tax he was able to get through an appropriation bill taking a certain per cent of the malt tax to totiild a sanatorium in the north. This was vetoed by Gov. Brucker on the grounds that it was illegal, but Fred Ming was not defeated (Continued, on Page Six) MT.

false rejection(fâls ri-jek´shun) (n.) In biometrics, the instance of a security system failing to verify or identify an authorized person. Also referred to as a type I error, a false rejection does not necessarily indicate a flaw in the biometric system; for example, in a fingerprint-based system, an incorrectly aligned finger on the scanner or dirt on the scanner can result in the scanner misreading the fingerprint, causing a false rejection of the authorized user.
The false rejection rate, or FRR, is the measure of the likelihood that the biometric security system will incorrectly reject an access attempt by an authorized user. A system��s FRR typically is stated as the ratio of the number of false rejections divided by the number of identification attempts.
Compare to false acceptance.

To perform a search, enter a keyword, phrase or item number in the search field and click "search."
We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Sassicaia is a unique interpretation of the Cabernet variety, a wine of great breadth, complexity and longevity. The intense blackberry and cassis aromas, offset by notes of smoke and spice, are confirmed on a palate of lush concentration underscored by firm, ripe tannins carrying into a long, elegant finish.
"The 2006 Sassicaia may very well go down as one of the all-time great recent vintages for this Tuscan thoroughbred. The year started off very warm but by August evening temperatures had moderated, leaving the fruit with a stunning combination of ripeness, perfume, acidity and tannin. The wine is simply glorious, that's all there is to it. Layers of dark fruit meld into smoke, leather, violets, menthol, earthiness and tar as this profound wine opens up in the glass. The creamy, silky finish lasts an eternity, as waves of fruit caress the tannins with breathtaking elegance. Everything is in the right place in this magical Sassicaia. This is one for the ages. In a word: Awesome. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2031. "

The Wine Advocate
"Bright red-ruby. Complex nose melds red cherry, blackcurrant, minerals, dried herbs and a delicate oaky vanillin nuance; the fruit aromas show an almost roasted quality without going over the top. Sweet, concentrated and nicely fresh, with an impression of strong extract and a hint of exotic fruits to the flavors of ripe red and dark berries, chocolate, plum and wild herbs. The candied fruit quality carries through on the long, smooth finish, where there's a trace of heat and hints of menthol and minerals. A very successful Sassicaia but, in my notebook, just a little below the lofty heights of the 2001 or 2004. But given the quality of this wine, that's quibbling. "

"Displays sweet tobacco, plum and berry aromas, with a jammy undertone, turning to licorice on the palate. Full-bodied and balanced, with silky tannins, a lovely texture and plenty of fruit. Outstanding Sassicaia, with structure and finesse. 85 percent Cabernet Sauvignon and 15 percent Cabernet Franc. Best after 2013. 20,000 cases made."
94 Points
Wine Spectator
"This landmark wine (85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc) shows herbal notes of chopped mint, wild berry, licorice, bramble and forest floor. Tasted young, Sassicaia never has the same impact it will 10 or 15 years from now when all those luscious aromas become more penetrating and warm. Built to age, the wine boasts drying tannins, good acidity and firm structure. "

Wine Enthusiast
"There's tension in this vintage of Sassicaia, its rich, generous fruit held within a tight, lean structure. Fresh Scents of flowers and herbs come up from under the ripe fruit, tamped down again by a meaty smokiness that hints as Brett. Youthful and inaccessible, this gains clarity with air, as it will in the cellar. One of Italy's most sought-after collectibles, this is suited to aging ten years or more."

Wired Pier Project
How are incoming tides affecting surface currents, water conditions, and ecosystems in the Bay? Are weather conditions affecting air quality in San Francisco? How do human activities and seasonal patterns affect the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and Bay waters?
Collecting and archiving data over time, and fostering the skills of observation, are two goals of the gallery. Scientific instruments attached to Pier 15, on the roof, and in the water provide a picture that informs these and other questions. Live data from sensors show what's currently happening, and a growing data archive lets us look back at short- and long-term changes, from recent weather history to seasonal phytoplankton blooms.
Wired Pier also allows us to be a research site for scientists who study the Bay. Scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), United States Geological Survey (USGS), UC Berkeley, and the Romberg-Tiburon Center are contributing expertise and instruments to the Wired Pier and incorporating the data into their regional and national observation networks.

Listeria Infection in Pregnancy
Symptoms of Listeriosis
Listeriosis can be a tricky diagnosis in pregnancy. At times the bacteria cause no symptoms at all or cause an illness that may be confused with a urinary tract infection or a flu that is managed with fluids and acetaminophen. Low-grade fever, headache, and muscle pain are common. Less commonly there can be diarrhea and cramps.
While the mother may suffer minimally from listeriosis, the baby's situation is life-threatening. Delivery usually unloads the largest amount of the infection from the mother's body, causing immediate improvement. Treatment of the mother with antibiotics may or may not help the undelivered baby.
The onset of premature labor in a baby already compromised will have an obstetrician weighing the risk vs. benefit of delivery. Certainly delivery is indicated in the late third trimester so that the newborn can be treated, but in cases of severe prematurity, there is no best answer for a difficult question.
In the real world, obstetricians don't obtain blood cultures and other tests for listeriosis on every woman with a low-grade fever, headache, or muscle aches. They can't.

Getting a 'mouf'-ful
Boka Kantina exceeds its strong food truck reputation
Already a fan of Boka fare from outdoor events with the Tako Truck, I was delighted to learn of the new restaurant, and eager to see if its reputation held up after putting down brick-and-mortar roots.
Would the food lose its zest if I wasn't enjoying it in the great outdoors? Would it seem pedestrian served from an ordinary kitchen instead of a truck?
Would the tacos be less satisfying as an antidote to normal lunch hunger – instead of being ingested to stave off desperate hunger after a long afternoon of crowds, sun, and tedious lines? > Read more.

One thing that's so amusing about Morse Code is that the more people claim that it's dead, the more people there are that rise up to defend and promote it. Note that I said "defend and promote it," not actually use it.
Having said that, let me point out my discovery of a new tome on our ancient art, Zen and the Art of Radiotelegraphy by Carlo Consoli, IK0YGJ. This book is available in the original Italian and in an English translation.
Consoli takes a different tack than other authors. Instead of concentrating on the mechanics of learning and using Morse Code, he spends a good deal of time talking about the psychology of learning this skill. To succeed in learning Morse Code, Consoli advises that we need to change our approach to learning:
When learning CW, therefore, we must establish a new component in our self-image and, when doing so, we need to be relaxed. Always practice during the same time of day and in a place where you can experience positive feelings of comfort and pleasure. When we make a mistake we are always ready to blame ourselves. This is the way we learnt from our environment during childhood, often accepting any fault as our own error or weakness.
This potentially destructive mechanism can be used to build a positive self-image, rather than demolish it. A mistake must be considered a signal, pointing us in the right direction. If you fail, let your mistake pass away, with no blame or irritation. Learn CW in a relaxed mood, enjoy the pleasure of learning something new, repeat your exercises every day and be confident in the self-programming abilities of your self-image. Just a few minutes a day: you can take care of your "more serious" stuff later on.
Consoli also has some interesting things to say about getting faster. He agrees with me that it's essential to abandon pencil and paper and start copying in one's head. We also agree that at this point, you need to start using a paddle instead of a straight key.
He has analyzed the situation a lot more than I have, though. When asked about how I learned to copy in my head, all I can do is to relate my own experience. One day, I just went cold turkey. I put down the pencil and paper and never copied letter-by-letter ever again.
Consoli, however, says that what operators need to do is to program themselves to copy in their heads. He counsels operators to practice relaxation and visualization exercises. Visualize yourself as a high-speed operator, and maybe one day you will be one.
That seems to have worked for him. He is a member of the Very High Speed Club (VHSC), First Class Operator's Club (FOC), and has been clocked at copying over 70 wpm.
Will it work for you? Well, if you haven't been as successful as you'd like with other methods to improve your code speed, then Consoli's methods are certainly worth a try.

Alaa Al Aswany became a contributing opinion writer for The International New York Times in the fall of 2013. Dr. Al Aswany, born in 1957, originally trained as a dentist, and still has his own dental practice in Cairo. He worked for many years in the building that lent its name to his novel "The Yacoubian Building" (2004), which was published in the United States in 2006 and long-listed for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award that year. It has sold over one million copies worldwide in translation, and was the best-selling novel in the Arab world for over five years. Dr. Al Aswany is also the author of "Chicago" (named by Newsday as the best translated novel of 2006) and "Friendly Fire: Ten Tales of Today's Cairo."

Dr. Al Aswany has received many international awards, including the Bruno Kreisky Award from Austria and the Grinzane Cavour Prize from Italy. His most recent novel, "The Automobile Club of Egypt," is forthcoming in English.

(WMC) - Forty University of Memphis students and a Hollywood movie director teamed up Friday, bringing love and joy to a Memphis school.
Movie director Tom Shadyac, who directed "Bruce Almighty" and "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective," among others, teaches a course called "Storytelling and Life" at U of M. On the final day of class, Shadyac gives each of his students a bicycle to remind them to have fun in life.
The director is also giving fifth graders at a local elementary school each a bicycle to teach the kids that it is better to give than to receive.
"He bought each one of us about a $700 bike, and I'm definitely going to make the most of it," said student Andrew Yonza.
The long haired fellow, who posed with his students in a picture, bought each a bike for his grand finale of his U of M course this semester called "Storytelling and Life."
"A bike changed my life; a bike reminded me it was a blessing to be childlike and play again. So much about our society says you've got to be serious. You've got to be serious. You've got to be serious. Some of the great mystics have said you've got to get serious about play," said Shadyac.
After making millions, a bike accident left Shadayc seriously injured. During convalescence, the director re-evaluated his life and started giving back big time.
"That's what I want to try to teach these kids: if you really want to receive wealth: give," he said.
"He's giving away his worldly goods to make the world a better place. He's changed my life," said student Steve Collins.
So here's the plot twist that brought joy to 5th graders at Treadwell Elementary. Principal Monica Wicks received the word something good was about to happen:
"Everyone can be a blessing in some small way: some bigger than others. Today will demonstrate. We can all do something to be a blessing to others in need."
The something Tom Shadyac's U-of-M students helped deliver Friday came as a total surprise to Treadwell's 5th graders. Two school buses were parked strategically to hide the gift:100 new bikes, one for each of them.

CSX sees trouble for coal -- or does it?
The railroad is expecting another challenging year for the fossil fuel, but Wall Street isn't throwing in the towel yet.
By Jon C. Ogg
CSX Corp. (CSX) has some somber words for the U.S. coal sector, despite what has been a handy recovery in the share prices of many of the sector leaders.
The rail transportation giant is seeing shares rise almost 4% after beating its own earnings report expectations, but the big economic warning is that it expects the domestic U.S. coal market will remain weak throughout much of 2013.
What is so interesting is that the coal players are holding up well, and that is after major recoveries.
CSX warned that its coal shipment volumes to power plants in the United States could be down by 5% to 10% in 2013. This is after domestic coal shipments were down 21% in the fourth quarter from a year earlier. The trends were like that all year, with a 26% drop in the third quarter and a 27% drop in the first half of 2012.
Some investors and market pundits want to blame low natural gas prices, but the environment of regulating coal into oblivion by the current regime in Washington, D.C., has been a known risk for some time. What was interesting is that some coal stocks have recovered even above where they were in late October and the very start of November, when it was looking possible that Mitt Romney might have had a better chance of beating President Obama. After all, Romney was the "I Like Coal!" guy and President Obama has favored renewables.
Here is how the coal players are faring, and we even posted the "Romney rally" highs of late October to early November for reference:
CONSOL Energy Inc. (CNX) is up 0.3% at $32.83, against a 52-week range of $26.41 to $38.42. The Romney rally high was up around $36, but shares were back to $32 by the end of November.
Peabody Energy Corp. (BTU) is down 0.5% at $26.12, against a 52-week range of $18.78 to $38.96. The Romney rally high was almost $30, but shares were back under $25 briefly by the end of November.
Arch Coal Inc. (ACI) is up 0.7% at $7.88, against a 52-week range of $5.16 to $15.94. The Romney rally high was $8.79, and shares were back at $6.50 by the end of November.
Alpha Natural Resources Inc. (ANR) is up 0.4% at $9.99, against a 52-week range of $5.28 to $23.68. The Romney rally high was $9.80, but shares were back down to $7 or so by the end of November.
All investors really need to do is to go back and see what Martin Sosnoff of Atalanta Sosnoff Capital told Forbes for the year-end special edition of "Get Rich from Obama" in his outlook. He said to sell the Market Vectors Coal ETF (KOL) by saying, "Stocks like Arch Coal and Alpha Natural Resources selling the single digits for good reasons." He noted that depressed coal prices and leverage could spell disaster, and he even said the Romney rally in these stocks is over.
The Market Vectors Coal ETF is down 0.6% so far this morning at $25.68, against a 52-week range of $21.49 to $37.40. The Romney rally high was $26.20, but this was challenging $23 by the end of November.
The good news for the coal sector is that Wall Street is not throwing in the towel on coal. If you saw CSX's commentary about coal on CNBC Wednesday morning, you might have expected yet another round of pain. The split decision may be that the stock market tries to act as a discounting mechanism. If coal is expected to remain weak for much of 2013, maybe the market is trying to say that this is discounted and factored in.

Smart Embedded Management Agent
Today's Embedded PC Systems need to provide both optimal performance and low power consumption. This can be difficult to accomplish without adequate control and system management tools to detect potential problems before they get out of hand. Similarly, systems must run stably and continuously, particularly in critical applications and severe environments with subject to extreme shock & vibration and extended temperatures.
To meet these requirements, a tool is needed which is able to monitor and gather performance and status necessary information from the hardware in a timely, flexible and precise manner. ADLINK's Smart Embedded Management Agent (SEMA) accomplishes these goals for you, the developer and end user. Time-to-Market (TTM) and Total-Costs-of-Ownership (TCO) are key aspects to producing competitive products. To combine TTM and TCO in a reliable manner, a solid and reliable platform is fundamental. To assist in this endeavor, every new ADLINK computer-on-module (COM) and single board computer (SBCs) is equipped with a Board Management Controller (BMC) device supporting SEMA.
Initially designed for power sequencing tasks, the BMC has evolved to include many new and useful features through the years. Measuring the supply current to get a snapshot of the system��s power consumption is only one of the new capabilities. Being compatible with the latest Embedded Application Programming Interface specification (EAPI) reduces your effort to port existing calls to SEMA to nearly zero!
Interfacing the hardware to the operating system is one of SEMA's most important functions. The BMC first collects all relevant information from the chipset and other sources. Using the System Management Bus driver, the application layer fetches the data and presents it to the user. ADLINK also provides a ready-made application that shows the data in user-friendly graphic interfaces, suitable for supervision and troubleshooting. (

The financial services industry has been through an incredibly turbulent period since the 2008 financial meltdown, and as banks continue to lurch from crisis to crisis, the adversity shows no sign of letting up anytime soon.
In the past year alone, UBS had a € 2 billion Delta One problem; MF Global went bankrupt and lost over $1 billion USD of clients' money; JPMorgan Chase & Co reported a $4.4 billion trading loss in its chief investment office; and Barclays is the first of a number of banks to be tainted by the evolving Libor scandal.
Libor, according to MIT Professor of Finance, Andrew Lo, "dwarfs by orders of magnitude any financial scam in the history of markets." Regulators in at least seven countries are investigating the rigging of the Libor and other interest rates, and around 20 major banks have been named in investigations and court cases. This still-unfolding story that has revealed decades of abuse, has financial experts calling for an overhaul of how the rate is set.
The old growth tricks of consolidation are hardly defensible given the general notion that large banks are not only "too big to fail" but also "too big to manage." The Libor scandal, in particular, has intensified pressure on Wall Street to enact reform. Aside from potentially costing banks tens of billions of dollars in penalties and legal settlements, the scandal is further damaging the banking industry's already battered image. Analysts worry that it is eroding the faith of investors and consumers whose confidence in Wall Street has been shaken by continual scandals and unsettling stock market losses.
The failure of the industry to put its own house in order means that politicians and regulators will be more inclined to step in. In the short- to medium-term, ongoing regulatory change — of which we have likely only seen the beginning — is redefining the environment within which financial brands can operate. Financial institutions' capacity to generate returns above the cost of equity is already under extreme pressure, so business strategies and models will have to evolve rapidly — and brand strategies will need to evolve with them.
With stock prices sliding and investors' interest waning, uncertainty weighs heavily on the sector, but the picture may not be as bleak as it seems. The demand for financial services remains strong; wealth is being generated in commodity countries; emerging markets and pension funds continue to grow.
Another reason for cautious optimism is that corporate customers have broadly stood by their banks. However, it must be pointed out that this loyalty is partly due to the absence of an industry leader that might clearly show a differentiated strategy. While clients overall are continuing to demand more transparency and accountability, on the B2B side at least, it seems that the majority see safety in size and will continue partnering with global players.
Reassuring and connecting with consumers
From a consumer point of view, trust is at an all-time low, and willingness to consider alternative providers at an all-time high. This is creating significant opportunities for new entrants, particularly trusted brands from other sectors. We expect this trend to continue and accelerate, improving choice and increasing the role of brand as competition intensifies.
The ongoing digital revolution is also facilitating change in the industry, empowering consumers, expanding their consideration sets, and enabling greater opportunities to compare value. A sense of more options and more personal control over choices, coupled with the above-mentioned trust deficit, is also speeding a trend toward declining loyalty and less inertia. Consumers are increasingly willing to make a switch, creating further opportunities for new market entrants.
Financial services has been slower than most industries to embrace the transformational potential of digital. Outside of financial services, consumers are coming to expect personalized customer experiences due to their experiences with retailers like Apple and Amazon, which have raised the digital bar. Consumers increasingly expect a rich and engaging experience from all of the brands of their life, including their financial service providers, with content that is tailored to their profiles and individual financial needs. As this demand grows, financial services brands will need to develop tools that can mine data to build more personal, relevant customer profiles at higher levels of sophistication than today. In addition, this experience will need to be deployed across all of the increasing number of channels and touchpoints.
Opportunities around the world
Emerging market growth is another global trend that will continue to provide huge opportunities for financial brands over the next ten years. Opportunities exist at each level of an emerging market society. Through increased penetration of the unbanked, financial services organizations can offer a wider range of increasingly sophisticated products and services to the growing middle classes, as well as through private banking to the growing number of wealthy entrepreneurs.
Western brands can't simply assume they will be able to effortlessly expand into these new markets, as they will face regulatory restrictions and growing competition from emerging market-based international groups, possibly even becoming targets for acquisition themselves. While there is concern about the size of banks in Western markets, in emerging markets the race for consolidation continues, with many players seeking initially to become regional powers. We have no doubt that, in time, emerging-market financial brands will break into the Best Global Brands' top 100.
In the next year, we expect that most financial services institutions will be primarily focused on restructuring, grappling with regulation, and on the constant hunt for revenue. Banks will be looking for new revenue sources, as will governments that are introducing new taxes that could impact corporate customers and consumers alike.
Though it doesn't necessarily make the path forward easier, it helps to remember that times of great change — and great challenge — are also times of great opportunity. The power of brands during such turbulent times is their ability to act as the central organizing principle for their businesses, establishing clear values and principles which can guide future strategies and behaviors internally, and, over time, influence external perceptions.
For consumer banks, nothing is more important right now than rebuilding trust. To accomplish that, financial companies will need to clearly define what their brands stand for, and communicate those values in a way that is relevant and credible. It will also be necessary to involve managers and employees in a process of engagement, executing communication consistently across all touchpoints and creating metrics to galvanize management, manage performance, and monitor progress. The point is to use all the tools at your disposal, including new digital tools, to make meaningful connections with consumers that can be nurtured over time.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Cardinal Timothy Dolan's decision to give the closing prayer for the Democratic convention in Charlotte next week eases, if ever so slightly, months of tensions between the church, the party and the Obama administration over such issues as contraception and abortion.
Dolan's choice to close both conventions sends a subliminal message that God, at least for now, remains "an undecided."
Yet, it doesn't quiet the country's spiritual roiling, and a subtle example of that will play out uptown.
There, the Catholic Diocese of Charlotte, taking a page from Martin Luther, has gone to a church to make its beliefs visible to all.
Its banner, high on a wall beside St. Peter's Catholic, has been up a week.
"A message from the Catholic Church," it reads. "Protect the Unborn, Defend Marriage, Safeguard Religious Liberty."
Bishop Peter Jugis wrote it. The issues he cites come from the church's guide to "Faithful Citizenship."
They also are the three in which the Catholic hierarchy is most closely aligned with the GOP. Jugis, according to voting records, is a registered Republican.
Meanwhile, the Catholic guide also lists such issues as immigration reform, helping the poor and the death penalty.
These are topics in which the church – and the bishops – veer toward the Democrats. These are also the areas – particularly immigration and poverty – on which St. Peter's has built its longstanding social justice efforts.
On abortion, marriage and contraception, the parish is split, and it has held discussions in which members have shared points of view. "It is our pride that we can talk," says the Rev. Pat Earl.
Toward that end, Earl says dozens of parishioners have expressed support for the bishop's banner.
Other members, feeling that visitors to the city might mistake the bishop's words for the church's mission, quietly seethe.
"It's 'in your face,' " Earl says. "But if this is what the bishop wants, it's his church."
Yet Earl also believes it's important for the U.S. church not to leave the impression that "we are the Republican Party at prayer."
Jugis, who declined a request for an interview, has entered political waters before. In 2004, he was one of three bishops who issued "Worthy to Receive the Lamb." The statement gives priests in the Charlotte diocese the right to refuse Communion to pro-choice Catholic politicians. David Hains, the bishop's spokesman, says the policy remains in effect.
As for the banner, St. Peter's was selected for its proximity to the convention; the issues because they "jumped out" at Jugis for their timeliness, Hains says.
With the convention about to break out around his church, Earl believes the presidential campaign has hit a new low, "people just yelling at each other and not talking seriously about issues."
Referring to emotional debates among Catholics, he added, "I hate to see it when the church … mimics the ordinary political style around us."
Jugis originally wanted three banners at St. Peter's. He and the church settled on two. The second faces The Green. This time Earl came up with the wording.
It reads: "Religious Liberty: The Soul of Democracy."

All grapes for this wine came from our own vineyards in the Dundee Hills. This is our "young vine" cuvée, with vines averaging 25 years in 2007. Eyrie's attentive vineyard practices focused on picking at just the right time in order to capture optimal Pinot flavor. The wine was then aged in mostly neutral French oak for nearly two years, resulting in a wine that accurately expresses
Pinot noir's inherent varietal characteristics. The deep, rich scents and flavors are enhanced by a long and lingering finish. It is a wine that pairs exceptionally well with food.

"The 2007 Pinot Noir Estate is more expressive aromatically. Cinnamon, allspice, rose petal, cherry, and raspberry scents lead to a silky, medium-bodied, feminine Pinot with savory red fruits, excellent concentration, lively acidity, and a lengthy finish. Drink this tasty effort through 2017."

Preventing an attack on Syria was the headline of a town hall forum in Charlottesville Wednesday night.
Dozens came out to the Friends Meeting House to voice their concerns about the Obama administration's push for military action in Syria. The event's speakers were writer and researcher Helena Cobban, Pastor Roy Hange, who has lived in Syria, author David Swanson, City Councilor Dave Norris and U.S. Constitutional attorney John Whitehead.
"The U.S. government should not intervene in Syria, militarily, unless there is a full open debate before Congress that the American people can be involved in," Whitehead said. "We haven't had that. It's mainly secret meetings and the president making statements."
Congressman Robert Hurt's director of outreach was also in attendance.
This same group has lobbied Hurt to oppose any U.S. intervention in Syria.

Beauty is only skin deep. Not in Friday night's talker.
Most of the girls at a high school in Texas went without makeup Friday to prove they're beautiful in just their own skin. A lot of teachers joined in, too.
The girls say too often, they feel plain or even ugly without makeup and that has to change.
So they held "Operation Beautiful" Friday, a whole day without makeup.
And the movement has the backing of boys at the school, too, some a little more humbly than others.

WILLIAMSVILLE, N.Y. (AP) -- With a potential lockout looming, it's becoming increasingly more difficult for Buffalo forward Steve Ott to remain hopeful.
Raring to go with his new team -- the Sabres -- after an offseason trade from Dallas, Ott spoke with cautious optimism on Monday before a golf outing benefiting the Buffalo Sabres Foundation. He wants to play. He can't wait to play. But he knows that might not happen.
For a while.
"It's tough," said Ott, who was obtained from the Stars in July for forward Derek Roy. "The players are looking for a fair deal. We want to play, and we want to get going. I think every single guy is ready to go. It would be a complete shame if the doors are locked by ownership."
After the entire 2004-05 season was lost due to labor struggles, the NHL is heading toward another work stoppage. The collective bargaining agreement expires Sept. 15. And for players who are looking to make fresh starts on new teams -- like Ott -- any delay makes it that much harder to get acclimated.

The new twist in our forecast is that a Heat WARNING is now in effect for central Mississippi; so indexes are likely to soar above 110 today. Hinds, Rankin, Madison & Warren counties have been added to the list of updated areas now under a warning. Along with those areas, the folks in Yazoo, Holmes & Attala have also been upgraded to Heat Warnings.
A Heat Advisory is in effect for south Mississippi, where heat indices of 105-110 are possible. Fortunately we have winds from the north west; so it could actually be worst. The Advisory is in effect for all other counties in our viewing area.
High temperatures each afternoon this week will be around 100-102. Very muggy air will continue over us, making for dangerous heat index values. There will be little relief at night as lows remain in the upper 70s and heat indices in the 80s during the nighttime hours.
Rain chances are very small and confined to south Mississippi.
The heat will begin to let up by the weekend, even then highs will still be in the middle to upper 90s. There is also a slight chance for isolated storms across the region this weekend. But that's being hopeful at best and may change by the time we get to the weekend.
In the Atlantic, we now have our eye on "EMILY" - a newly formed tropical storm. Emily continues moving westward with little change in strength. As of this morning Emily was located at 15.5N 64.0W about 245 miles south est of San Juan Puerto Rico.
Maximum sustained winds of Emily are at 40 mph as of this morning. And Emily is moving steadily to the west at 16 mph and expected to curve and hit the eastern coastal region of Florida; that according to the latest models.
