Dougherty Comprehensive High School is getting a major makeover. Students are already taking advantage of the first part of the renovations as school officials get ready to begin the next phase.
Dougherty High's band has a reason to be upbeat. They're practicing in the brand new wing of the school.
"The kids are excited to use the new space, we have a lot of new rooms," said Band Staffer Robert Ausby. "They do a lot of rehearsals in those rooms. And they're really excited about using the new wing. And it's great that they have it actually, because like I said, we didn't have that before."
Dougherty High, which specializes in performing arts, has been getting a major makeover. "We had people scattered everywhere," Ausby said. "Band was here, chorus here, orchestra was in another area. Dance room was used in the old weight room. None of this was here."
Now this wing encompasses all of the fine arts. "All of us are in one area, so we see each other a lot, more than we have before, because of the space that we were limited to."
This is the first phase of the renovation, which began 16 months ago. "We constructed about 35,000 new square feet of the building. We built 2D and 3D art room, a band room, chorus, orchestra, keyboard lab, dance, drama and a black box theatre," said Bob Fowler, Dir. of Facilities Service Dept.
The auditorium also got new seats and lighting. Phase two of the project is expected to begin in September. "We're going inside the building and renovating all the classrooms. They'll get new lights, new air conditioning, new paint, new flooring. It'll be just like a brand new building when we get finished," said Fowler.
That should take 18 to 20 months to complete. Until then, students will have class at Dougherty Middle school, which was closed at the end of last school year. "The biggest reason we do these renovations is just to upgrade the 20 or 30 year old finishes, air conditioning, and make the building a lot nicer for the students to provide a better learning environment really."
The entire project will cost about $33 million, paid with state funding and SPLOST money. School board members are expected to approve the final bid for phase two during their August 12th meeting.
Renovations at Monroe High School are expected to begin next summer.

Scented vs. Unscented Candles
Growing up in California in a Latin family, candles had a very different significance than they do now. Since weather always ranged from tepid to warm (to extremely warm), the idea of lighting candles to create a cozy atmosphere was not something my family ever adopted — candles were mostly used by my Catholic grandmother for worship. Now that I live in the Midwest I cannot imagine going a couple of days without burning candles — truthfully, lighting candles around my place is the first thing I do when I get home from work.
Since I light candles all around my home, to keep it simple for the longest time I refused to purchase scented candles. But about a month ago, during a recent shopping trip at Anthropologie I discovered what has now become my favorite scented candle (Voluspa's Makassar Ebony & Peach). So now I simultaneously burn mostly unscented votive candles and one scented one. Speaking from experience though, I know that many of my friends HATE scented candles, some claiming allergies, others claiming sinus problems and even migraines.
So what about you? Do you burn scented candles at home, or just unscented? Are there scents you avoid? What types of candles do you burn when you have company over?

always have a candle on my stove burning,and scented
Scented with guests—always Votivo's Black Ginger.
Unscented for dinner parties.
Unscented candles. I use a scented oil heater if I want a smell.
Love Love Love Voluspa's variety of scents. Also: aspen bay capri blue in Volcano.
I light a candle whenever I get home, too!
i used to never use candles or scents, but in the last few months I started using a ginger-scented room diffuser in my kitchen (amazing!) and vanilla-scented candles in the bathrooms. Since the bathrooms always have the doors closed, I don't even need to burn the scented candle to let the bathroom smell like vanilla.
I live in a warm climate, and the open windows let in lots of breeze, so burning candles often isn't an option.
Diptyque for me are the most sublime scented candles. Expensive but they burn for hours and smell divine. My favourite is Feu de Bois (woodsmoke) but there are others I love almost as much.
I use both scented and unscented candles. The unscented ones are typically tealights, I go through a massive amount each winter - I like to have around 9 candles burning at the same time. The scented ones are pillar candles - I don't stick to a specific scent, I buy what I like.
However, I read the unscented candles produce a lot less soot than the scented ones, but I did not verify that. Anybody knows?
And when we are speaking of candles - I would appreciate if somebody could suggest where one can get candles in a decorative glass - it looks like the glass is painted on. I recently bought one at a local Goodwill store and oh my, it looked amazing when it was lit up. I have no idea where it came from - it was a round glass container, with the wax poured in, and it was impossible to determine if the glass was painted on the inside or on the outside (or how the coloured pattern was achieved at all). Thks.
I'm obsessed with scented candles. They are calming and comforting. I almost never bother with unscented candles.
Unscented. scented calndes give me headache.
I have trouble finding scented candles that aren't cloying and artificial smelling...but then I discovered Astier de Villatte's line. I love the subtle mossy, leathery scent of "Edimbourg." Pricey though at $75 each...but they burn slowly and don't reek like Glade.
I always have one scented candle loving the Seda France- Malaysian Bamboo right now. I use beeswax candles unscented at the dinner table or other soy scent free ones if I have several going at once.
I had the Voluspa Black Figue Chypre going last month my goodness that one is heavenly. I usually find their candles to perfumy mens cologne smelling this one was amazing.
I always have scented. We do a lot of cooking and they really help with the food smells. I use a variety, different scents for different rooms, and seasons.
my husband really likes to burn a scented candle before we have people over, but i absolutely hate artificial scents and find that some make my eyes water or give me a headache (even very gentle scents). ho hum.
I would never burn a scented candle. Unless the candle is 100% organic, the scents are basically nothing more than phthalates and phthalates are linked to all sorts of health problems. Even before I discovered this, scented candles would give me terrible headaches.
I use essential oil scented soy candles. When I can splurge I'll go for a really nice one but usually I make my own or have a few local craft vendors.
In the winter I'm almost always burning a candle. Scents vary by season and occasion but my stock candle that I make sure I never run out of is a jar of nag champa for the hubby - he loves it. Plus, it's a strong scent and we have some kind of weird plumbing issue that is waaay out of our price range to fix in the foreseeable future that causes a sulfur like smell when it's humid or wet out. As such, if guests are coming over we always make sure there is something burning for about 30 minutes before arrival.
On the table we rarely use candles in centerpieces but if I do they are always unscented. I was taught that a scented candle on the table will interfere with tasting the food. Additionally I don't burn oils near the dining room or have a diffuser or anything until after the evening meal.
i always burn scented candles in my kitchen/living room, bathroom and bedroom. ok so basically the whole apartment gets the scented candle treatment.
i also buy all my candles at anthropologie...the best source for all types.
I use unscented tapers on the dining table and unscented tealights for my soy tart melter. Other than that I use a lot of scented soy candles from an Etsy seller.. I typically have one burning whenever I'm home. I also like Illume's candles. My favorite scents are fresh: mint, clean florals, grassy, springtime smells.
I find that scented candles give me headaches:( I really love them but after having two kids something went wacky with my sense of smell and perfume and candles and cleaners just hurt my head...
Scented candles tend to disagree with me. If I want the house to smell, I'll use something natural (Boil some water on the stove with a stick of cinnamon in it. Peel a citrus, put it in a metal bowl and leave it on the heater. Bake cookies.)
I only burn candles when the power goes out. I never use any scented products of any kind, if I can avoid them, for personal and ecological reasons. Air fresheners (and scented candles) are putting microscopic droplets of oil in the air (in your lungs, on your walls, etc.) and that bothers me.
Depends on the reason. If the power is out I'm going to use at least mostly unscented ones since I don't want to feel like I'm in a perfume factory. If it's just one or two to make the room cozy, I usually use scented ones.
I use battery-powered lighting in blackouts. I open windows as weather, pollen, etc., allow for fresh air. It usually smells like my husband's excellent cooking indoors. Artificial scents range from unpleasant to sickening for me. I rarely use candles and don't miss them.
My fiancé has been buying soy candles on Etsy from someone who makes them to order. The first batch was too cloying for me (the coffee-scented candle in a small enclosed space made me want to pass out).
Since my fiancé didn't want to go all unscented, he had the GREAT idea to ask the candle maker to give us half-scented candles (half wax with the scent, half unscented wax; or maybe just half the scent). Anyway, completely fabulous. It's a great subtle smell. Never overpowering now. Love it.
I buy unscented pillar candles and sometimes add a few drops of essential oil (usually orange or rosemary) to the hot wax that pools around the wick. I like controlling the intensity of the scent.
I LOVE scented candles. My personal favorite place is http://www.scentsandsprays.com. They sell all my favorite brands, and the candles are amazing!

As the remaining GOP presidential candidates continue a contentious battle for the party's nomination, a larger struggle lies ahead for the potential nominee — the ability to connect with young voters.
An emerging pattern from the past three presidential election cycles chart a trend in which young voters, aged 18-29, are increasingly casting their ballots for the Democratic candidate at the polls. The majority of young voters supported Al Gore in 2000, John Kerry in 2004 and an overwhelming 66 percent powered Barack Obama to a landslide victory in 2008.
President Obama's fiery message of hope and change and an unprecendented social networking approach appealed to young voters who considered Obama a forward-thinking candidate representative of a new era and fresh ideas congruous with their values.
Cathy Cohen, a political science professor at the University of Chicago and expert on youth voting, says two mechanisms led to Obama's win – a high turnout in 2008 from young black and latino voters and a higher percentage of more young white voters opting for the Democratic Party.
"I think Obama's ability to have a kind of culture relevance resonated with young voters versus McCain who looked very establishment," she said.
Meanwhile, the Republican Party is faced with the difficult challenge of winning over these voters by articulating a message and vision that speaks to the Millennial Generation.
In a 2010 Pew Research poll, 56% of voters under the age of 30 surveyed that they identified or leaned toward the Democratic Party, compared to just 36% for the Republican Party.
Given a widely-held perception by young voters that the Grand Ole Party is just that – a faction of old men with antiquated views and ideas – intensifies the challenge to attract Millennials as the party has to evaluate its standing and perhaps re-brand itself in order to contend with Obama in November.
As social issues such as abortion rights, same-sex marriage, contraception and immigration dominate the political narrative, it creates a culture clash that divides the young and old. Young voters tend to have a more liberal view on these issues of tolerance and diversity.
Dick Simpson, professor and head of the political science department at the University of Illinois-Chicago, says Republicans are tone deaf in terms of the social attitudes held by Millennials which in turn creates a cultural divide.
"People over 60 have one view of the world and people under 30 have another and it's because of the time in which they grew up," said the former Chicago alderman. "Most youth don't get bent out of shape about a woman choosing to have an abortion or whether same-sex couples can get married. They see it as a private matter."
Cohen says the struggle for the GOP to connect with young voters is due to its position on cultural issues that were defined 10-20 years ago.
"I think most young people have grown up knowing someone who is gay. They've seen gay characters on television so it's a part of how they understand the world and relationships as opposed to older people who are only now adjusting to that time of visibility," she said.
The only GOP presidential candidate who has been able to create enthusiasm among young voters – substantially capturing the youth vote in many of the primary state competitions – is Congressman Ron Paul, whose crowd make-up on the campaign trail largely consists of voters under the age of 30.
Paul's astounding popularity with this group is mostly motivated by his social liberty views. The 76-year-old supports legalizing marijuana, opposes most foreign wars and believes the government shouldn't play a role in making decisions regarding gay marriage – all social attitudes shared by many Millennials.
However, it is less likely Paul will win the party's nomination meaning one of his opponents will have to find a way to connect with and secure the backing of Paul's supporters without adopting his policies.
Simpson says the prospective nominee will need to choose a running mate that's not 65-years-old.
"There aren't many Ron Paul's who can appeal to youth, but there are many Ron Paul's in the Republican Party as best as I can tell," he said.
While Democrats may be benefiting from the culture divide that stems from social issues, a focus on the economy maybe a way for the Republicans to close the cultural gap.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate among Millennials is nearly twice as high as the national average of 8.3 percent. Meanwhile, student loan debt now totals $865 billion according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Alex Schriver, National Chairman of the College Republican National Committee, says these dueling challenges for young voters gives the GOP the advantage of selling themselves as the best solution to solving the country's fiscal problems.
"Young people are graduating into a poor job market and finding work that doesn't at all equal to what they paid four years of tuition to do and so they're moving back in with their parents," Schriver said. "The Republicans' message is to find a solution so that these folks aren't living on the dole of somebody else, which in the case of Democrats is more often than not, the government."
The GOP's next option is to play to the discontent of young voters who are disappointed with the job President Obama has done and feeling wilted by his message of hope and change.
In a recent survey conducted by Democracy Corps, an independent non-profit organization, fewer than 40% of people under the age of 30 approve of Obama's performance, with 54% disapproving.
Schriver, whose organization consists of a quarter million members with chapters in all 50 states and on 1800 campuses, says they are doing everything on a grassroots level to shift the youth vote to the right side of the aisle by making inroads with first-time voters and voters who now feel disenchanted with Obama three years later.
Still, Cohen says it will be a tough sell for the GOP and hard to brand themselves in a way that will mobilize young voters, especially against President Obama who has embraced a language of inequality and the idea that millionaires should pay their fair share.
"I think that language resonates with young people for both the recovery and the rhetoric and when you add his position on cultural issues, I think it's without question that most young people will move towards Obama."
What's certain is that as the nation progresses, the trends in the opinions of the country's youngest voters is strongly becoming a measure of shifting political tides. The GOP must convince young voters that their party is evolving with the rest of the country.

HARTWELL, Ga. (AP) -- Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal has announced that Tenneco, an automotive industry supply company, will expand its production lines and add 350 employees at its northeast Georgia facility.
Authorities say the expansion will take place at the Lake Forest, Ill.-based firm's Hartwell manufacturing facility. Automotive shock absorbers and struts are produced at the Georgia plant.
Tenneco has operated in Hart County since the 1960s, and already employs a mix of more than 750 full and part-time workers at the Hartwell facility.
Hartwell is about 100 miles northeast of Atlanta.

Grab your tickets for our closing film Ida while you can! http://www.berwickfilm-artsfest.com/events-and-films/141/143/closing-film-ida
Our 10th anniversary Festival takes place from 17 – 21 September 2014, once again transforming the town of Berwick-upon-Tweed into one big screen through film premieres, site-specific installations and live events in locations across Berwick and along the town walls, attracting over 8,000 visitors, and artists and filmmakers from all corners of the world to Berwick.
The full programme is now live, and a Festival Pass can get you in to everything for only £35!
This year, with our theme Border Crossing, we will once again take audiences on a journey, setting out to cross and transcend borders in all directions, exploring border identities all over the world. Berwick-upon-Tweed makes an ideal starting point: a border town in a region once known as 'the debatable lands,' with an identity neither English nor Scottish, but all of its own.
Taking place in the same week as the historic Scottish independence referendum, and marking our tenth anniversary edition, the Festival will bring together independent film and artists' video to explore boundaries – on the map and in the mind – and the spaces in between. We hope you can join us!
We're delighted to be hosting a launch event for Jukebox Kino – a new distribution platform which will go live following the Festival in September.

Whenever you exercise, be sure to stretch.
Stretch first after your warm-up, when your muscles aren't so tight, and again after the cool-down period. Stretching for five minutes after you warm up will improve your workout and may prevent injuries.
Why? Because repetitive exercise tends to reduce muscle flexibility. Also, tissues like muscle and skin lose elasticity with age. So if you increase the intensity or duration of your workouts, maintaining muscular flexibility in your lower legs, thighs, gluteals and back will become even more important.
Without proper stretching, your range of motion will become limited, which will adversely affect e.g. your running and swimming technique. For example, tightness in the upper shoulder area will reduce the effectiveness of the pull and glide part of your freestyle swim stroke, slowing you down. And tightness in the hamstrings can decrease your stride length in running, forcing you to expend more energy to make up the difference.
There are stretching techniques for almost every major muscle group. If you aren't familiar with different techniques, consult any sports physiologist or coach for advice. Below are some tips to help you stretch properly no matter what technique you use.
Stretching Tips
Never stretch cold muscles. Be sure to warm them up before stretching.
Hold each stretch for 30-60 seconds to give your muscle time to adapt to the stretch.
Never bounce in a stretching pose or force a muscle into a position that causes pain.
Relax and breathe deeply and slowly while holding each stretch position.
If you are stretching your arms, legs or sides, remember to stretch both sides.

Great weekend on the lake!
Exactly as advertised. Clean, spacious accommodation for a large group looking for a quiet weekend on the lake with lots of bbq, firepit camaraderie and fun on the lake. Would return again.
When is the last time you went on vacation and thought, "Somehow I woke up in heaven." What does heaven look like, you might be wondering? Well, there's plenty of great art on the walls, for one thing. The owner is a Devi (Indian for goddess) and her beautiful visage graces many of her self-portraits. The cutlery is shiny and top notch. The views are out of this world, literally every window is framed by lush foliage and craggy peaks. The floor is boho industrial chic, and as for the floor of the shower? Zen wooden slats with a calming Japanese feel. Let the water run softly around your feet and into the abyss. The TV room is more temple than TV room (there's even a brass ceremonial bell) with thoughtfully rolled yoga mats and thoughtfully stacked blocks. Likewise the laundry room is stacked with sheets and towels. Mid-century-modernity will be yours with touches like the Eames shell chairs and the Herman Miller Nelson bench, also featuring stylish slats. The mountains are all around, including when you lie by the cute pool. Dive in or wade, the choice is yours. Is that a bird? There are plenty to watch!

Last week both Apple and HP made new computing platforms available. Both the MacBook Air and the HP Slate had been the subject of months of rumors and speculation, and now they're both here. A business professional in the market for a portable computing device could conceivably consider either, so let's look at how they compare.
Size and weight
The 11.6-inch MacBook Air is about the size of a sheet of paper at 11.8 inches by 7.56 inches, and it is .68 inches thick at its fattest point. It weighs in at 2.3 pounds. The HP Slate, on the other hand, is an actual tablet and comes in a little more svelte at 9.21 by 5.91 inches, .58 inches thick, and a lighter 1.5 pounds.
Edge: HP Slate 500
[ Find out why most iPad rivals are already doomed. | Stay ahead of advances in mobile technology with InfoWorld's Mobile Edge blog and Mobilize newsletter. ]
Battery life
The HP Slate 500 gets up to five hours of battery life -- which is low by tablet standards. In fact, the battery life of the HP Slate would great if was a notebook, but only be average if it were a netbook. By comparison, the 11.6-inch MacBook Air claims five hours of battery life as well (and up to 30 days in standby mode) -- and it actually is a notebook.
Edge: Tie (with perhaps a slight advantage for the MacBook Air on principle)
The MacBook Air has a glass multi-touch trackpad that lets you interact with the system as if it were an iPhone or iPad. It supports inertial scrolling, pinch, rotate, swipe, and other touch gestures common to the Apple mobile devices. The HP Slate 500 has a multi-touch interface as well, but it can also accept input from the HP Slate digital pen, enabling the taking of notes or marking up documents right on the tablet display.
Edge: HP Slate 500 (they both do multi-touch gestures, but HP has the added flexibility of the pen input)
From a business perspective, the fact that the HP Slate 500 runs the full 32-bit Windows 7 Professional operating system has appeal for many users. Other tablets like the iPad or the Samsung Galaxy Tab seem like capable devices, but they won't let mobile users install and use the software they need from their Windows desktop.
If you told me that you had a Windows 7 system with a 1.8GHz Atom processor, 2GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage space for $800 I would scoff. Those specs are anemic by Windows 7 standards and barely meet the minimum system requirements for the OS. For $50 less than that, I could get a notebook with a dual-core 2.4 GHz Core i5 processor, 4GB of RAM, a 500GB hard drive, and the 64-bit edition of Windows 7 Professional. Of course, it wouldn't be a tablet.

We stumbled onto it last a couple of weeks ago. Unlike the Hells' Kitchen show, it allows a bit more humanity to come through his personality.
Apparently he has taken the Hell's Kitchen format and started a restaurant staffed by people who write in and ask to work for him. He lets one go every show. He is still pretty hard ass with his employees, but the rest of the show is glimpses into his personal life and various interludes that can cover cooking in someones home (ala Tyler Florence) to finding some type of game / food that he's never eaten before and trying it.
In the last case, it was a seabird of some sort that was described as tasting like "fishy duck". It was a hilarious segment as he tried it and got some of his staff and friends to try some.
It pretty funny and off the wall. We like it.

MY HUMBLE LITTLE POST JUST GOT MORE THAN 500 NOTES OH MY GOD. Tumblr, I freaking love you.
Update: johnwatsonisdamncuddly says that they're going to start with Doctor Who:
Aw thank you! I think I'll probably start with Doctor Who, that seems to be the one that's the most popular, and I guess there has to be a reason for that :) You're not pushy at all, I shamelessly plug Sherlock whenever I can!
…which is awesome because you all just made our own case for watching Doctor Who: the Tumblr fandom.
There were 542 notes on that post in the first 15 minutes(!)
This is a fandom that supports one another.
Granted, not every post gets reblogged by the Doctor Who Tumblr but to look at the notes alone is missing the point: the strength of this fandom isn't in us — it's in you.
You talk to and reblog and message one another.
You look at the Doctor Who tag to see what others have to say and share.
You like someone's post, then you follow, then they look at your blog and follow back. You form friendships, get into fights over characters, and make up. You create stuff, curate stuff, and you share what you've found.
Here, in the 50th year of the longest running story on television, it's easy to see what has made being a fan of this show so wonderful: you.
Thank you, Whovians.

CraigSUB SS-18.1 Passive Subwoofer - (2012 model)
CraigSUB SS-18.1 Passive Subwoofer - (2012 model)
In Stock and Ready for Shipping!
The 2012 CraigSUB SS-18.1 Subwoofer is a front-firing, sealed enclosure subwoofer in a 21" cube. It is available as a passive subwoofer (no amplifier) for $500 + $95 shipping. Add an amplifier for a complete powered subwoofer.
Just go to our Subwoofer Amplifier page to choose the amplifier which best serves your needs. Amps ship free with subwoofer purchase.
Dayton SA1000 Amplifier - $400
More amplifiers will be available soon!
For all our 2012 models, we have a new cabinet manufacturer who is providing an upgraded, harder, slightly textured, matte black finish that improves the SS-18.1's appearance and durability. The finish is consistent across the CHT product line and matches our High Efficiency Monitors.
At $595.00 delivered (continental U.S.), the SS-18.1, passive version, is a terrific combination of price and performance (heavy emphasis on performance) that will handle small, medium, and large rooms comfortably. At some point after putting one in your listening environment, you may decide you need (or just WANT more) and/or want to smooth room response with a second unit. With most other subwoofers, that means a second, matching subwoofer – translating into a total investment of at least 2X the original price of your original subwoofer. However, the exciting piece of this design is the fact that it is modular! Let's explore what that means.
We have a cost-effective alternative for that second matching subwoofer: simply add another passive SS-18.1. Adding this second 18" passive enclosure can provide more output (and who doesn't want THAT?) and/or help smooth your in-room frequency response. The second SS-18.1 passive cabinet simply connects to the same amplifier you are already using for your original SS-18.1. This modular design concept provides flexibility in placement and/or increased output with consistent crisp, tight and well-defined bass – AND – does it without damaging your wallet (although your walls may become a bit stressed).
Order the two passive SS-18.1 cabinets at the same time and save $25. Custom configurations are available. Just give us a phone call or send us an email.
The SS-18.1 has a response curve of +/- 3 dB from 23 Hz to 200 Hz with a natural, 12dB per octave roll-off below 23 Hz to match room gain. All Chase Home Theater subwoofers are designed so that, if placed within 1/8 wavelength distance from the corner boundary, a theoretical boundary gain of 18 dB is possible, but without three foot thick concrete walls and floors, typical boundary gain will be 9 – 15 dB. The room gain and boundary gain will offset the natural, 12 dB per octave roll-off of a sealed design, as it occurs, resulting in a nearly flat frequency response to 15Hz or below, depending on the room and placement.
Not only will you feel the deep extension of the SS-18.1, but it hits HARD in the 40Hz – 80Hz slam range to maximize the chest thumping you want. It delivers the slam you want for movies, yet it is tight and responsive with music. The sealed design makes it all work exceptionally well.
Coupling the SS-18.1 and an SA1000 amplifier with five of our 2012 model SHO-10s creates an amazing 5.1 system in both value and performance. This 5.1 system delivers reference level audio for an unbelievable $2,920 (shipping is free). Add a second, passive SS-18.1 cabinet to make it a 5.2 system and you will be amazed for $3420 (shipping is still free!). Because of the 97 dB efficiency of our Monitors, a mid-level receiver will drive everything nicely rather than needing top of the line electronics - more savings for reference level audio. Pretty tough combination to beat!
We use USA built parts whenever possible, and all final assembly is done in our Pennsylvania Factory.
Frequency Response: 21Hz – 100Hz +/- 5 dB (Using the Dayton Amp and the bass boost switch is ON)

Share more with Buffer
A large number of you told us that you enjoy using Paper.li as a part of your morning routine to discover new content for further sharing and distribution. You also told us we weren't making it easy enough to share that content. So this week we integrated Buffer into Paper.li.
Now you can easily cross-post a single article, video or image, or a paper edition, to pages and profiles on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
To get started you'll need a Buffer account. Once you've set up your account (it's easy to do) just look for the share icon on articles or at the top of a paper to start sharing.
And email too!
You also told us that sometimes you find a story or paper that you'd like to share or send to yourself, but just not publicly. So we've added our good friend 'email' to the sharing portfolio of icons.
Now you can easily via a pop-up window on Paper.li, or choose another email service to send someone content.
Additional Pro payment options
Last, but not least, we've included a few more payment options for publishers who would like to upgrade to Pro. It's now possible to subscribe to Pro with Visa, MasterCard, Amex, JCB and Diner's club.
If you haven't upgraded to Pro yet, take a look at the features and give it a try! We offer a no hassle subscription and you can easily downgrade back to Paper.li basic at any time.
That's it for this week. The team and I wish you a great weekend and if you're out celebrating St. Patrick's Day, tweet us. We love international celebrations!

[Rock of Ages: When prog-rock ruled]
The Santa Cruz Sentinel discusses prog-rock and specifically my favorite song of all time, Rush's 2112.
... The music of "2112" was, and is today, quite amazing. To those of you who haven't heard it (probably most of you), picture Jimi Hendrix sitting in with the Who playing Beethoven intensely. Only it was all being performed by three Canadians and a couple thousand watts of music gear.
The song was big (not just in length), it was bombastic, it was intense and, to many of us prog fans, it held much meaning. And like a great classical concerto, it had subtle frail interludes weaving the whole thing together into a sonic landscape you could almost touch (thanks in part to the stinky wizard bong). ...

The city of Durango offers what they call a "buzz bus" on Friday and Saturday nights.
For $5, the bus will take you home, as long as you live in the city limits.
But a budget battle could soon mean last call for the buzz bus.
The city of Durango's transit system says it's time to make cuts to make up for an almost half-million dollar hole in the city's transit budget.
"By eliminating the buzz bus service we'd save $32,400 per year and, what we're looking at towards cuts is actually $220,000," Amber Blake, multimodal director for the city of Durango, said.
A lot of the customers for the buzz bus are students here at Fort Lewis College and they say they wouldn't be too happy if that service went away.
"I think that would be a bad idea I think transportation after a certain times on the weekends is really limited and I also think the buzz bus is a good way for students to get around without drinking and driving," said student Charles Dickinson.
Folks at the transit service say they don't mean to be a buzz-kill, but their research shows there are plenty of private taxi and limo services available in Durango.
But some say that's just not realistic.
"If you offer an alternative such as a limo or a cab you're not going to have as good as results kids just aren't going to pay for it often times kids a lot of the times they would just rather just drink and drive," said student Jesse King.
But even with the possible service cut, the city hopes people will do the responsible things and plan ahead and make sure they have a safe ride home.
Durango city council is still taking public comments about the budget plan until November 5.
If the current proposal passes, the buzz bus will stop rolling by January.
KOB welcomes a lively and courteous discussion as long as you follow the rules of conduct set forth in our Terms of Use. Comments are not pre-screened before they post. You agree that anything you post may be used, along with your name and profile picture, in accordance with our Privacy Policy and the license you have granted pursuant to our Terms of Use.

Former AFL footballer, Jason Akermanis got in trouble earlier this week after some comments about recently deceased fellow footballer Jim Stynes which many people took as disrespectful and heartless.
Jason has apologised at length since the interview and has stated that his comments have been taken out of context.
Hughesy and Kate gave him a call early this morning to discuss what happened, and his regret for his timing and choice of words.
Do you think Akermanis is being heartfelt? Should he be forgiven for his comments? Let us know in the comments.

There has been an interesting development in the firing of meteorologist, Rhonda Lee. Station management is apparently breaking its own so-called social media policy to speak out about the firing of the African-American meteorologist at KTBS-TV in Shreveport, Louisiana. The station fired Lee after she defended herself on Facebook over racist comments posted by viewers. The comments were ignored by news management.
In the past 24 hours, the station has been bombarded on Facebook and Twitter with people angry over the firing of Lee. No telling how many phone calls and emails they got from angry viewers and people around the country.
Critics on Facebook and Twitter did not hold back:
MBarry tweeted…
This is absurd! Shame on you
#KTBS-TV. Meteorologist Fired for Responding to 'Racist' Facebook Post
PMallard tweeted…
Rhonda Lee, If their social media policy isn't in writing, it isn't a legal policy !!
#KTBS Fail !!
J Scott wrote on Facebook:
I was very offended when I read about this situation! I would like to think that KTBS would want to be viewed as a "community" station, that serves ALL the people of the Shreveport-Bossier community.
Just after 11pm on Tuesday, December 11, KTBS-TV released a statement on Facebook about Lee and another employee terminated for allegedly violating their unwritten social media policy. You may recall, Lee told blogger, Richard Prince of Journal-ism that she was told by management that it was a policy that was not written down.
Now it seems that the station has violated its own "unwritten" social media policy by responding on Facebook about the controversy. Here's the statement it released on Facebook:
Typically this station does not comment on personnel matters, but due to the publicity and interest about this issue, the station has included the following statement.
On November 28, 2012, KTBS dismissed two employees for repeated violation of the station's written procedure. We can confirm that Rhonda Lee was one of the employees. Another employee was a white male reporter who was an eight year veteran of the station. The policy they violated provided a specific procedure for responding to viewer comments on the official KTBS Facebook page. Included is an email that was sent to all news department employees informing them of this procedure. This procedure is based on advice from national experts and commonly used by national broadcast and cable networks and local television stations across the country.Unfortunately, television personalities have long been subject to harsh criticism and negative viewer comments about their appearance and performance. If harsh viewer comments are posted on the station's official website, there is a specific procedure to follow.
Ms. Rhonda Lee was let go for repeatedly violating that procedure and after being warned multiple times of the consequences if her behavior continued. Rhonda Lee was not dismissed for her appearance or defending her appearance. She was fired for continuing to violate company procedure.
KTBS even shared a screen shot of an email sent out in August by the stations marketing manager. This is an email not an official social media policy. Now the station is trying to claim this email was the policy. Please….
There is nothing in the email that addresses dealing with comments with racial overtones. There is nothing in the email that addresses how long you let a racist comment sit on a website for everyone to see. Lee told CNN that the comment sat on the website for 6 Days. There is nothing in the email that addresses what the station will do to defend a person of color when they are attacked on Facebook.
Social media policies cannot be just "blanket" statements. A good policy should cover ever issue as a "stand alone" especially when it pertains to racist comments. Being called a terrible reporter is different from someone calling you out as "the black lady" and not giving you the proper respect of using your name. That hurts!
So now that KTBS has issued its response on Facebook; it has broken its own policy that General Manager, George Sirven says Lee violated. Remember the email read:
"When we see complaints from viewers, it's best not to respond at all."
So who gets fired next? Someone wrote the statement and approved it. But here's the reality, different rules apply for people of color in TV broadcasting. Yes, even in 2012.

As of Wednesday, May 1, 2013
© Copyright 2014 Albany Herald
DAWSON — What happened Wednesday was years in the making.
"We're finally region champs," Terrell Academy baseball coach Ashley Walker said. "It feels good."
The Eagles (13-5, 7-1 in GISA Region 3-AA) have been state champs before, but they'd never won their own region outright before Wednesday.
That's when the Eagles beat rival Westwood, 10-6, to clinch the school's first crown.
"We shared it once in 2009 when we were state runner-up, but we'd never won it outright," Walker said. "This is the first one we have all to ourselves."
Josh Brunswick made sure of that.
The hard-throwing Eagles starter pitched a complete game, striking out six and allowing seven hits. Logan Duckworth went 2-for-3 with an RBI in the win, while Clint Smith was 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI, Caleb Waters notched a 3-for-4 day with three RBI — including his third homer of the year — and Dalton Dedge was 3-for-4 with an RBI.
Terrell closes the regular season this coming week and will open the state playoffs in two weeks as the No. 1 seed from Region 3.

Good job, Terrell and Coach Walker!

Your title is wrong. I played on 2 region championship teams in the 90s and my dad played on 2 in the 70s. I'm pretty sure they won it in 01 or 02 also if not both.

An officer at the DeKalb County Detention Center has been arrested for stealing from a detainee.
Sheriff Jimmy Harris said that his office worked with the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Office of Professional Responsibility after the ICE received a complaint from a detainee who said that $325 was missing from his property after being booked into the detention center.
John Weston Culpepper was arrested Wednesday following the results of that investigation. Culpepper was charged with third-degree theft of property. At the time of the incident, he was a corrections officer at the DeKalb County Detention Center.
Sheriff Harris confirmed that Culpepper was terminated from his position.
"Law enforcement officers hold the public's trust, and even though sometimes it is tough to do so, we must be held to the standards we enforce," Harris said.
Culpepper was booked into the DeKalb County Detention Center. His bond is $1,500.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Archbishop John Nienstedt will not face criminal charges in connection with an allegation that he inappropriately touched a boy during a public photo shoot in 2009, authorities announced Tuesday.
Nienstedt, who had strongly denied the allegation but stepped down from public ministry while police investigated, said Tuesday he will now resume all of his public duties.
"I look forward to returning to public ministry during this Lenten season, especially during Holy Week and the great feast of Easter," Nienstedt said in a statement. "I continue to offer my prayers for all ... who have been harmed by clergy sexual abuse. I once again offer my apology to all who have been affected by these terrible offenses."
The Ramsey County Attorney's Office said Tuesday's announcement resolves this specific case against Nienstedt, but other investigations into allegations of child sexual abuse within the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis are ongoing.
Police say there are currently eight other open investigations.
Nienstedt announced Dec. 17 that he had been accused of touching a boy on the buttocks during a public photo session following a confirmation ceremony in 2009.
During an interview with police, the alleged victim said it happened when he and others were lining up for a group photograph. He told police Nienstedt had one hand on his shoulder, but then moved that hand down the boy's back to his buttocks, according to a memo that outlines why prosecutors declined to file charges.
"The male said he thought that it was 'creepy' but did not feel violated," Criminal Division Director Richard Dusterhoft wrote in the memo.
In the photo, Nienstedt is directly behind the alleged victim, with his left hand on the staff he carries and his right hand on the boy's left shoulder. There are 11 other people in the photo, including a priest and a deacon.
"The group is arranged on the stairs and the Archbishop is standing one step higher than the male," the memo said. "It appears from the photograph that the Archbishop would have to bend to reach the male's buttocks and that any such action would likely have been witnessed by others present."
Police spoke with everyone in the photo. No one witnessed any touching or said they touched anyone else as a joke, the memo said.
"It also seems unlikely that the Archbishop, if he were so inclined, would pick that moment to sexually touch a random boy openly ... while the confirmands' family members were preparing to document the moment in photographs," the memo said.
Police interviewed Nienstedt twice during the investigation. The first time he said he would not have touched the boy's buttocks, and said he stands in all photos with one hand on his staff and the other on his stole, the memo said.
After police found the photo — with Nienstedt's hand on the boy's shoulder — they interviewed him again. Nienstedt said that before he became archbishop and began wearing a stole, he routinely posed in photos with one hand on a person's shoulder.
Nienstedt was "surprised" to see his hand on the boy's shoulder in this picture, the memo said.
The memo said the state can't prove beyond a reasonable doubt that any touching occurred, or was done intentionally or with a sexual intent.
It also said that resting a hand on the buttocks in the context of a group photo could be done in a "thoughtless, unintentional or accidental manner."
The incident came to the attention of police on Dec. 16. The memo said that at some point after the May 5, 2009, ceremony, the boy told his mother that Nienstedt touched him. At a later date, the mother told a priest friend about it, who reported the incident to the archdiocese and police.
The ceremony of confirmation is a Roman Catholic sacrament during which people confirm their faith. The church considers people who have gone through the process to be responsible for their own spiritual growth.

Ultra Green Premium 2 Ply Facial Tissues 175 Tissues
Ultra Green Premium 2 Ply Facial Tissues are made from 80% sugar cane fiber and 20% other natural fibers. Ultra Green Facial Tissues are biodegradable, compostable and sustainable. Ultra Green Tree Free sugarcane paper products biodegrade or compost in 60-90 days, while Ultra Green cornstarch cups and utensils biodegrade or compost in 150 days. You don't have to make sacrifices to be green. These premiere products withstand heat, hot liquids, are oil resistant, are safe for microwave and freezer—all made in full compliance with US Food and Drug Administration guidelines.
Frequently Asked QuestionWhat is sugarcane fiber? It is the cellulose fiber that remains after the juice has been squeezed from the sugarcane stalk. It is called bagasse. Historically, the fiber was discarded or incinerated—creating air pollution.
Why use sugarcane fiber?Tree Free sugarcane fiber is 100% compostable, sustainable and biodegrades in 90-120 days.
How is sugarcane paper made?Sugarcane fiber—bagasse—is formed under intense pressure and high temperatures. It is sterilized, sanitized and conforms to U.S. Food & Drug Administration guidelines.
Is there a difference in quality from traditional products?No. On the contrary, Ultra Green gets many compliments on the quality and durability of these products.
Do Ultra Green factories use toxic elemental chlorine in the bleaching process?No. Ultra Green uses a closed-loop ECF (elementary chlorine free) hydrogen peroxide and oxygenation process.
What does biodegradable mean? Biodegradable is the process by which organic substances are broken down by other living organisms. All Ultra Green products are 100% biodegradable and will break down in a landfill, home composter or commercial composter.
How long will it take Ultra Green products to break down?On average, Ultra Green sugarcane fiber products break down in 60-90 days. Ultra Green bioplastic products normally break down in less than 150 days.
Can I put Ultra Green products in my home compost? Yes. Ultra Green products will biodegrade at the same rate as garden waste in a home composting system.
What are Ultra Green's bioplastic utensils and cups made from?They are made from cornstarch. Regular plastic is made from petroleum. Ultra Green products are compostable and biodegradable. Their products are sustainable as corn is a renewable resource.
Do Ultra Green bioplastic products contain any harmful phthalates or BPA?No.
How long will the bioplastic products take to decompose or compost?Less than 150 days. They can be composted at home, as well.
How well do Ultra Green bioplastics handle heat?Ultra Green tableware will handle hot food and beverages up to 190 degrees Fahrenheit. They are microwave and freezer safe.
What if I am allergic to corn?The extreme heat used in processing destroys immunologically reactive profilin. Thus, these products should not cause an allergic reaction.
How am I helping the environment by using Ultra Green products?
What about conventional paper plates and paper cups? Aren't they also biodegradable? Conventional paper plates and cups are made from wood fiber which requires cutting down our forests. Many food paper products have a petroleum-based emulsion applied to them. They degrade at a much slower rate than Ultra Green's untreated product.
What's wrong with plastic and Styrofoam? Plastic and Styrofoam are non-biodegradable petroleum products. They remain in the environment for hundreds of years and leach toxic substances into the soil and groundwater.
About Ultra GreenUltra Green is a company built by three men with decades of business success. They thought it was time to give back in a positive, constructive way and decided on a green business, but not any green business. Their goal is to develop fully sustainable, biodegradable, compostable products and to do so in a way that will expand the rapidly-developing green marketplace.
When you walk into your local grocery store or mass retailer looking for disposable plates, cups, and cutlery, you're going to find products made of paper, Styrofoam or plastic made from oil. Their goal is to completely replace that product with eco-friendly sugarcane paper and cornstarch plastic.
Ultra Green is eliminating the use of petroleum-based products. They are reducing energy consumption, water pollution, air pollution, and waste going to landfills and incinerators. They have less impact on global warming.
"We want our children and grandchildren to inherit a clean world of grandeur and beauty, not an oil-dependent world littered with toxic landfills, devastating climate change, and polluted waterways. We came to make a difference, and we're doing just that."

|Erratum: Measurement of transverse single-spin asymmetries for J/psi production in polarized p+p collisions at sqrt(s)=200 GeV [Phys. Rev. D 82, 112008 (2010)]

|For the PHENIX collaboration(s)
|We previously reported [Phys. Rev. D 82, 112008 (2010)] measurements of transverse single-spin asymmetries, A_N, in J/psi production from transversely polarized p+p collisions at sqrt(s)=200 GeV with data taken by the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider in 2006 and 2008. Subsequently, we have found errors in the analysis procedures for the 2008 data, which resulted in an erroneous value for the extracted A_N. The errors affected the sorting of events into the correct left/right and forward/backward bins. This produced an incorrect value for the 2008 result, but the 2006 result is unaffected. We have conducted two independent reanalyses with these errors corrected, and we present here the corrected values for the 2008 data and the combined results for 2006 and 2008. The new combined spin asymmetry in the forward region is A_N = -0.026+/-0.026(stat)+/-0.003(sys). Since this asymmetry is consistent with zero, we no longer claim that our results suggest a possible non-zero trigluon correlation function in transversely polarized protons.

Bentley put a hold on developing any new models in order to work on a new 4.0 liter, twin turbocharged V8 engine that we already expected to see in the Continental GT V8 at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show. Details for the Coupe model were already revealed to that effect, but now that the auto show has opened its doors, the new Continental GTC V8 was there, welcoming the auto industry with open arms with its new engine and a total of 500 HP and 487 lb ft of torque. In Europe, the GTC V8 is priced at €149,600 - or about $191,000 at the current exchange rates. Prices for the North American market will be announced at a later date.
"With the new 4.0 liter V8 engine we are widening the appeal of the latest generation of Continentals, introducing a completely new driving experience. The new engine will have all the exhilarating power, drama and performance you would expect from a V8 engine sporting the famous Bentley wings, effortlessly delivered with our characteristic 'wave of torque'. This is complemented by innovative powertrain technology that delivers exceptional fuel efficiency and emissions," said Wolfgang Dürheimer, Chairman and Chief Executive, Bentley Motors.
UPDATE 02/20/12: Bentley has released a new crop of images for the Continental GTC V8, all of which you can check out in the gallery below!
UPDATE 03/19/12: Bentley has unveiled a very cool promo video for their latest Continental GTC V8. Enjoy!
Hit the jump to read more about the new Bentley Continental GTC V8.
Exterior and Interior
The biggest change for the GTC will obviously be found under the hood, but Bentley has also made some changes to the aesthetic portions of the model. The new GTC V8 has received a black gloss matrix grille with chrome frame and center bar, a red enamel Bentley "B" badge, a black matrix three-segment lower front bumper divided by distinctive body-colored strakes, unique chromed "figure eight' exhaust tailpipes, a dark lower valance, and red enamel "B" bootlid badge. It will also be offered with a choice of three different hood colors and a choice of standard 20-inch alloy wheels or an optional 21-inch six-spoke design available in dramatic Diamond Black (exclusive to the Continental V8) or Diamond Silver finishes.
Distinctive sporting style
- Gloss black matrix grille with bright chrome surround and divider
- Three-segment lower bumper with black air intakes and striking body-colored dividers
- Dark rear lower valance
- Distinctive twin 'figure eight' exhaust tailpipes
- Red enamel Bentley winged 'B' badges above the front grille, to the bootlid and wheel centres
- 7 exterior colors offered in standard range
Sporty, contemporary interior
- New Dark Fiddleback Eucalyptus veneer unique to the V8 models
- Eliade cloth headlining and pillar trim
- Short center console in place of W12 through-console
- 4 hide colors offered in standard range
- Unique two-tone leather colour split
The Bentley Continental GTC V8 will be powered by the brand's new 4.0 liter, twin turbocharged V8 engine delivering a total of 500 HP at 6000 rpm and 487 lb ft of torque which is available across virtually the entire rev range from 1700 to 5000 rpm. This engine will sprint the car from 0 to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds and up to a top speed of 188 mph.
The engine is mated to a new close-ratio 8-speed automatic transmission and is capable of traveling over 500 miles (800 km) on a single tank of fuel.
Prices for the new North American market will be announced at a later date, but in Europe the GTC V8 is priced at €149,600 - or about $191,000 at the current exchange rates.
The main competitor for the new Bentley Continental GTC V8 will be the new BMW M6 , in its convertible version. The M6 will use a new turbocharged 4.4 liter V8 that will deliver up to 600 hp and 550 lb-ft of torque. The M6 is about 100 HP more powerful than the GTC V8, but its performance - 0 to 60 mph sprint time is 4.5 seconds, while top speed is limited to 155 mph - takes a back seat to the GTC V8 - 0 to 60 mph sprint time in 4.8 seconds, while top speed halts at 188 mph.
- More fuel efficient
- Sporty and Contemporary look
- Performance beats out the competition
- Pricey, but it is a Bentley

Former Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Rafael "Feijao" Cavalcante's appeal to the California State Athletic Commission was denied on Monday.
Following a lengthy meeting between the fighter and his representatives, who were heard before the commission, the commissioners ultimately decided to uphold the one-year suspension first handed down earlier this year.
Cavalcante and his lawyer, along with manager and agent Ed Soares, appeared before the commission to argue their belief that the chain of custody of the sample taken from the fighter was handled incorrectly.
More MMA
While they did state during the meeting that Cavalcante denies ever taking steroids, their argument with this particular case stemmed from a mishandling of the sample taken from the fighter prior to his bout against Mike Kyle in May 2012.
After a question and answer period and testimonies and rebuttals from all parties involved, the commission ultimately voted unanimously to deny the appeal and uphold the suspension.
Cavalcante's manager Ed Soares continued to speak after the commission made it's ruling, but they stated the matter had been heard and they were moving on to other business.
The former Strikeforce light heavyweight champion will now be forced to sit out until May 18, 2013, due to the one-year suspension.
The fighter is also responsible for a $2,500 fine levied against him by the commission from the suspension.

I like Feijao but c'mon at some point the excuses get old. They take an unknown supplement or something. Just man up and take it. Even things sold at general health stores state on the label that it may cause a positive drug test result. Supplements aren't even FDA regulated. I'm also sick of seeing these legal steroid adds in magazines. With a picture of freaking horse on the label! Are you kidding me? Just eat right, train smart and deal with it. Some machines are built better than others but thats life. No disrespect to him or anyone specific. I'm just saying this is getting out of hand. If I had a fight coming up, I'd test myself to make sure my systems clean. How much garbage are you taking anyway that you can't keep count or tell the difference? C"mon now.
yep usually stuff like that says on the label whether it has a banned substance in it. or atleast alot of the stuff in the health stores and stuff here in jacksonville. f the bears and f nc state
