Civil Liberty vs. Civil Rights
When homosexuality was granted minority protection under the law, it was only a matter of time before acting on religious conviction would be unlawful "discrimination" against a minority. We have successfully pitted civil liberty against civil rights in our country and we have a gov't ignorant of both to thank for that.
The same is happening now that a few states have redefined marriage. You refuse to employ your products or professional services in a same-sex union, and now your illegally discriminating. You may even be denied operating permits by some rogue council member or face penalties and fines. You cannot establish arbitrary civil rights without undermining constitutional civil liberty.

The Drug Shortage: A Mother's Story
For Christine Sorensen, in Kamloops, B.C. the drug shortage has been a near disaster. Her 14-year-old son Derek has a rare form of epilepsy. His seizures can be controlled by one drug -- called Zarontin. Without it, he could die. As she told Brian, via skype, it's an older drug which is now impossible to find in Canada.

How to Be Just Like Cat Valentine
Cat Valentine is a favorite character of many people! Some of you maybe don't want to be exactly like her but want set off that original image. Well these are some tips how.
An editor has suggested that this article be merged with:
"How to Look and Act Like Cat Valentine from Victorious"
Per the merge policy, if these topics are determined to be similar but distinct, then the articles will remain separate. Please comment on the discussion page. Notice added on 2014-07-03.
1Dye your hair a rich red color. Be careful though; not everyone can pull off a red velvet cupcake color! If you don't want to dye your hair this extreme color, try a dark, chocolate brown color. This was Ariana Grande's original color.Ad
2Do your makeup. Cat Valentine does her makeup the same way almost all the time. While it's not "natural" looking, it's not overdone. When doing your makeup, think glam natural.
- Shadow - light silver on the inner corners of your eyelids and sparkly black on the outer corners with a thin line of black eye shadow on the bottom outer corners.
- Eye Liner - dark black eyeliner on the bottom lash line making the eyeliner thinner as it gets closer to your nose.
- Mascara - curl the top lashes of your eye and then put on a thick layer of mascara. On the bottom lashes use the excess mascara on your mascara wand.
3Keep your face clear. Ariana Grande has very smooth and clear skin so wash your face every night and find acne medication if you need it. Also, applying foundation and cover up on your dark circles helps a lot!
4Dress nice. Cat always dresses well. her style is cute and girly. In season one, she wears cute skirts, tops, cute graphic tees, and sometimes black leggings. Later she wears more dresses, shorts, skinny jeans, and a pink hoodie. Wear what fits your style best, but always look put together and dress appropriate for the occasion.
5Always be happy and dumbfounded. Stay book smart but be a little confusing on your street smart. Only act sad when someone is being mean, but first act like you don't understand then say something like Cat's favorite catchphrase: "What's that supposed to mean?".
6Flirt. Flirting is easy when your Cat Valentine. You just laugh a lot and act like nothing in the world could make you feel sad. When Cat flirts she usually plays with her hair, touches the guy's arm and has good posture. Unlike with her friends, with a boy she is serious. Not like strict but it's like she really likes him so she doesn't wanna mess up. Don't mess up! Also, be gullible; believe whatever your friends tell you!
7Keep a good reputation. Don't drink, use drugs, smoke, or sleep around. If it's something a lot of people do because it's "cool", don't do it. People like Cat because she is unique and her own person.
8Get involved. Be in all the school plays and choir competitions, get in a sport or a club, take an art class. Do things! People love people that are involved! Cat stays involved by acting and designing costumes for her school plays. Always be nice to everyone, even people that are mean or who you don't like!
9Stay fit and take care of your body. Keep active, drink water, take showers, and stay hygienic! Be the person you would want to be friends with!Ad
Are you an expert on Precious metals?
If so, share what you know about aging copper.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
We are a bit smarter today because of you.
- Cat never gets jealous. Don't get hung up on what others are up to too much. Focus on being your best.
- Cat has a cute, high-pitched voice. If your voice is low, don't strain to make it sound higher. Just talk sweetly and softly, and make sure what you say is kind and sweet because it's what you say that counts.
- Live your life and don't get too hung up on being someone else!
- Compromise! If some of the clothes/colors don't work with your body don't wear it.
- Don't act too much like Cat or people won't like you because, again, people like Cat because she is her own person!
- Never be mean to people! And if you happen to be rude, soften it up by twirling your hair or giving a cute expression. But try your best not to ever purposely hurt someone's feelings.
- And don't go over the top by acting super dumb, especially if it jeopardizes relationships, your grades, or your job.

Downloaded and burned these to DVD. Excellent quality, love the size of the file. The only problem I had was Prisoner of Azkaban kept skipping and we never could finish watching that one. My CD was brand new and didn't have issues with the rest so I'm assuming it burned badly or something since no else has reporting problems with it. Also wish the 8th movie would have been included since I had to download that elsewhere and sound quality was so different especially with surround sound.

For a conference that hasn't produced the national champion since the Dodgers played in Brooklyn, the ACC sure plays gripping baseball.
From Boston College's dispiriting demise to Virginia's impression of the '71 Orioles, from Florida State's T-ball outing to Clemson's comeback, the league owned the NCAA tournament's opening week.
Martin was speaking about his team. But his sentiments echoed conference-wide.
Seven ACC teams earned tournament bids, and four advanced to this weekend's Super Regionals. Can the league match its 2006 haul of four College World Series qualifiers? Or last season's three?
What about the ACC's first national title since Wake Forest in 1955?
Regardless, good luck approaching the suspense — King or Hitchcock would squirm — we've already survived.
Our discussion must start with Boston College. Making the program's first NCAA appearance since 1967, the Eagles lost two of the most excruciating one-run games imaginable at the Austin Regional.
The first, against top-seeded Texas, began Saturday night and ended Sunday morning, seven hours and three minutes later. The Longhorns prevailed 3-2 in the longest game, 25 innings, in NCAA history.
"I've never been part of anything like that," BC coach Mik Aoki told the Boston Globe. "But then I guess no one else has. It was almost surreal."
The most extraordinary character was Texas relief pitcher Austin Wood. He threw 13 scoreless innings, the first 12 1/3 hitless.
Can you say Harvey Haddix (look it up, kids)?
For his work, which included 169 pitches and 14 strikeouts, Wood got a no-decision.
"It was fun to be a part of," Eagles catcher Tony Sanchez told the Globe.
Less than 10 hours later, Boston College faced an elimination game against Army. The Eagles lost 4-3 when the Cadets turned a 6-4-3 double play on Mickey Wiswall's one-out, bases-loaded grounder in the ninth.
Aoki thought Wiswall beat the relay, and had the umpire agreed, the game would have been tied.
Eyeing its fourth consecutive World Series, North Carolina encountered no such drama in sweeping its regional. But the Tar Heels face a grudge-match Super Regional against East Carolina, which rallied for a 10-9 victory Monday over South Carolina — Devin Harris hit a tying three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth and drove in the winner with a 10th-inning single.
Another World Series staple, Florida State, advanced to the round of 16 with a 37-6, baseball-needs-a-slaughter-rule thrashing of Ohio State.
"Everything that they did was right, and everything that we did was wrong," Buckeyes coach Bob Todd said during the postmortem. "It was almost like an intrasquad game."
ACC again proves its baseball clout

We did request a feather free room for allergy reasons and upon arrival found the bedding had feathers - quick call to the front desk and new pillows were in our room within an hour. They do have a free shuttle available that we did not utilize, however, it would be extremely useful had we not had friends staying on the beach with parking available to us for free.

All three teenage passengers of a car involved in a fatal crash in Sandy on Tuesday night are expected to survive, police say.
Sandy police spokesman Troy Arnold said a 17-year-old front seat male passenger, initially in critical condition after being flown by medical helicopter to University Hospital, was reported to be in serious condition Wednesday.

|Post a Comment
Killed in the 5:30 p.m. Tuesday rollover near State Street's intersection with 10100 South was the driver, Brandon Jeremy Evans, also 17, of Draper.
As of Wednesday, two of the other passengers — a male and a female — had been released from the hospital.
Evans, a student at Jordan High School, lost control of his Toyota Corolla while driving northbound on State Street. Arnold said a witness reported that the car had just stopped at a red light. When the light turned green, the car began swerving back and forth before going into a roll and crashing into a light pole.
The cause of the accident remained under investigation. Arnold said there was no indication of Evans being under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of the crash.

The CDC offers a guide for the basic treatment schedules for active TB as follows: Basic TB Disease Treatment Regimens Preferred Regimen Alternative Regimen Alternative Regimen Initial Phase Daily INH, RIF, PZA, and EMB* for 56 doses (8 weeks) Initial Phase Daily INH, RIF, PZA, and EMB* for 14 doses (2 weeks), then twice weekly for 12 doses (6 weeks) Initial Phase Thrice-weekly INH, RIF, PZA, and EMB* for 24 doses (8 weeks) Continuation Phase Daily INH and RIF for 126 doses (18 weeks) or twice-weekly INH and RIF for 36 doses (18 weeks) Continuation Phase Twice-weekly INH and RIF for 36 doses (18 weeks) Continuation Phase Thrice-weekly INH and RIF for 54 doses (18 weeks) *EMB can be discontinued if drug susceptibility studies demonstrate susceptibility to first-line drugs; Table reproduced from http://www.cdc.gov/tb/topic/treatment/tbdisease.htm#2 Treatment of drug-resistant TB can be difficult. Patients with these infections are recommended by the CDC to involve infectious-disease specialists as there are multiple approaches that involve other anti-TB drugs and variable treatment schedules that can be used. In addition, there are new drugs and treatment schedules being developed and approved by the FDA. The infectious-disease consultant may be aware of these newest treatments that may benefit specific patients. For example, bedaquiline (Sirturo) has been approved for treatment of MDR TB. In some patients, the lung destruction may be severe and the only treatment left may be surgical resection of the diseased lung tissue.

"My daughter loved this invitation for her party. At 14 she wanted something that was sophisticated but not stuffy. IT was perfect and set the tone for the decorations. The quality of tiny prints products is very good. We use them for almost all our stationery needs. Highly recommend this particular product for a teen party."
"I loved tiny prints designs and the choices they allowed for editing your personalized invites. The quality of the product was excellent and it was delivered in a timely manner. I definitely will be using them again!"
"Colorful and fun design. Finally a girl's invite not 100% pink, princess,flowers or ballerina! The finished product is excellent quality. Very pleased with this product."
"I used these as my daughter's first birthday invites. The picture of her came out clear. The paper was a very nice weight. The red is perfect for fall. Loved the cupcake as we are doing a dessert buffet for her party."
"I ordered these invitations for my son's 4th Birthday party, which is being held in a cupcake bakery. We are having a cupcake baking party and these work perfectly with the theme. We are using the colours also for the styling of the event."

CNN Poll: Sorry, GOP -- Americans Don't See A Scandal In Benghazi

These were pretty good as veggie burgers go, but nothing spectacular. I used cooked brown rice instead of bread crumbs and pulsed the mixture in a food processor, and the patties held together reasonably well. But I was scratching my head at the serving size - this is supposed to make 4 patties?? A burger that enormous would not have fit on a standard-sized bun. I ended up with 8 or 9 "normal" sized burgers and served 1 or 2 at a time over several meals. My husband was nonplussed but I thought the mix of ingredients was interesting, so I might make these again.

If you are looking for the answer to your life watch this clip. The world didn't end in 2012 like people said it would. But God loves you and he wants you to be saved this new year.
Nicely done Andrew.
Thank the lord Jesus for what has has done for us!!!
This video is only a fraction of the true sacrifice Jesus made for us all. Will we ever truly and fully understand God's love for us. It's been said that God's love is like an ocean deeper and larger than can be imagined, however we only wade in up to our knees when what God wants is for us to dive in and emerse ourselves.
Ian Montgomery You are only truly born of the spirit when you die. This thing we call a body was born of the flesh so until we are rid of it we are not born of the spirit. The apostle Paul states it this way in 1 Corinthians 15:50 "I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable."
got it..thank You God..
Our GOD show his love to us by giving his son Jesus , this is a practical and commited love, thanks for the video, it really make his purpouse...give hope to the ones that need it.
That'll preach
this movie clip explains the gospel in one of the best ways possible.I love it!;).
God is love and without him you don't know love God bless you in Jesus name.
That was a great post for so many reasons ~ Thanks John for your thoughts ~
Suzanne Shaddix Cox That is just cruel (the baby comment). I believe all children and infants are pure and innocent (Why else would Jesus tell Christians to become as children to inherit the kingdom of God?) and I firmly believe that if a baby or child dies, yes it is a devastating thing, but I believe that beyond a shadow of a doubt that child/infant WILL go to Heaven.
I think you're confusing John 3:16 with Mark 16:16. Mark 16: 16 says "He that believes AND IS BAPTIZED shall be saved. John 3:16, on the other hand, says "For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten sone, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (I believe that the belief mentioned in John 3:16 will provoke one to follow what God states in other passages in the New Testament and be baptized. The bible doesn't contradict itself. To say "believe only and you will be saved" and then to disregard all the passages on baptism that are CLEARLY spelled out is to make the bible contradict itself). Believe me, I understand the point you are trying to make. I appreciate that you are willing to take a different approach than many today do by actually looking at what the bible says about baptism. My whole point is that you misquoted the scripture you were referring to.
Deborah Brown Hawkins The reason the man on the cross was not baptized and yet was saved is because Christ had not died when he spoke with the man, thus the "new covenant" where baptism was required had not been in effect. Only after Christ died did that become mandatory for salvation. So no, that man was not baptized yet he was saved, because Christ had not yet died. We must be baptized though, as every other person we read of in the bible after the death of Christ had done to enter God's family.

My Party: Isla
Danville, CA
As a child of the 70s and 80s I'm somewhat relieved to know that kids today can appreciate rainbows. And they were certainly celebrated along with the birthday girl at the party Karen threw for her daughter: Isla, requested a Rainbow theme for her 4th birthday party. I love a good theme, and I had already been gathering ideas from all over.
We sent rainbow frisbees as her invitations. I set the table with rainbow colors, using a white table cloth and rainbow wrapping paper as a table runner. I bought generic red and blue party hats and added rainbow-colored streamers at the top. The birthday girl's hat had additional decoration on it. Streamers and rainbow-colored tissue balls were decoration.
The main activities were a pinata and a treasure hunt that I created for the kids. For the treasure hunt, the kids were given a red balloon with a photographic clue, leading them to the next color balloon. They went from red to orange to yellow to green to blue to purple. The purple balloon led them to the treasure! {beachballs, bubbles, and live ladybugs — open-ended outdoor activities}
Since it was a mid-morning party, the kids were served a stack of rainbow colored pancakes and then later, rainbow cake. The gift bags were also rainbow themed, and filled with all sorts of rainbow goodies. I made everything myself, but the frisbee idea came from Givers Log and the rainbow pancakes idea came from I Am Mommy.
Thanks Karen! Readers, would you like to see more photos of Isla's party? Head to Graceful Creative for more rainbow goodness.

I love a rainbow party! Very cute ideas. My daughter chose rainbows for her third birthday party two years ago. Here are some links to my posts about her party--

Interview: Stones Throw Creative Director/Designer Jeff Jank
By Pitchfork on May 16, 2013 at 11:37 a.m. EDT
L.A. indie label Stones Throw has long been home to artists with auras of mystery, including Madlib and DOOM and their various aliases. Stones Throw co-founder Jeff Jank, the creative director and designer who's behind some of the best-known artwork to come from the label, is similarly elusive.

Now, Stones Throw and Minimal Wave are putting out a second installment of vintage minimal electronic tracks remastered from their original analog recordings. (Plus one Geneva Jacuzzi track from 2004.) The new collection, The Minimal Wave Tapes: Vol. 2, will be out on February 27.

Madlib Readies Remix Collection
By Tom Breihan on August 9, 2011 at 3:20 p.m. EDT
Since last year, California beat-warper Madlib has been releasing records in his Madlib Medicine Show series. He'll finish the series on September 27, when Stones Throw releases Madlib Medicine Show #12: Raw Medicine (Madlib Remixes). The collection features more than 30 remixes in 60 minutes, and the Stones Throw website implies that many of those remixes are unlicensed. That means we could hear what, say, Rick Ross sounds like after being run through Madlib's prism.

Dolph Ziggler is still hoping to get cleared by the WWE medical staff, so that he can work Royal Rumble 2014. The former world heavyweight champion has not worked a televised match for WWE since January 6 because of a concussion.
There is a very good chance that we only have five more months of seeing CM Punk, as his contract with WWE expires in July of this year. The former heavyweight champion has openly talked about leaving the company on his own terms, so it will take some convincing from management to get him to sign a new deal.
Kharma has been focusing much more on her health than she has at any point during her professional wrestling career, as the former TNA knockout is now doing the yoga program created by Diamond Dallas Page. She has lost a considerable amount of weight since leaving WWE.
Thanks to the help of John Cena and his BodyChange program, Vickie Guerrero has been improving her health and losing weight. The WWE diva has lost approximately a dozen pounds over the last month, and she is still going strong with the program.
Michael Cole and JBL, who are close friends outside of WWE, are doing a weight loss challenge together. JBL, who currently weighs 278 pounds, wants to lose approximately 50 pounds this year. They plan on climbing a mountain together afterwards.
WWE star Brodus Clay revealed on Twitter that he has lost some more weight and is now down to 353 pounds.
"It's awesome. I think I've stumbled upon the fountain of youth or something. I'm 44 years old and I'm down to high school weight (225)."
Kharma posted a picture of her new boyd on Twitter, and it looks like the former WWE and TNA star has lost close to 100 pounds.
It looks like the departure of JoJo Offerman from the second season of Total Divas has been confirmed, as the press releases for the show are not making any mentions of the young WWE diva. The media is simply stating that Summer Rae is joining the cast.
While she has been rumored to be removed from the upcoming and second season of Total Divas, WWE is not planning on releasing JoJo Offerman any time soon. The belief is that she is still pretty young, so management will give her more time in developmental.
"Rest in peace, Mae Young. You're truly an inspiration to us all. It was an honor to have met you. You will be missed."
There is some backstage heat towards JoJo at the moment, with one source stating that she is actully on thin ice with WWE. The company opted to take focus away from her on Total Divas, and she's missed several episodes of Monday Night Raw.
Jo Jo Offerman, who was once romantically linked to Randy Orton, now has a new boyfriend. She posted a picture of him on Twitter recently and stated that he was the best boyfriend that a girl could ask for.
The seven girls of Total Divas were able to beat the other WWE divas in a traditional Survivor Series match. Natalya and Nikki Bella were the last two standing in the ring at the end.
JoJo Offerman, the developmental diva featured on Total Divas, made her official in ring debut for WWE at an NXT show over the weekend.
JoJo Offerman reveals that she received some training from former WWE diva Mickie James.

Jessica Blair and Madison McDonald are among the brightest of pro rodeos stars in trick and fancy riding today, and Spooner Rodeo is tremendously proud to have them performing here for you this year.
Jessica Blair was raised on her familys East Tennessee beef cattle farm, so she has been around horses and cattle all of her life. But she is the first of her family to be drawn to performing in rodeos. She was just a teenager when she saw a trick and fancy rider and began dreaming of making that her profession. While a student at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, Jessica became a lead performer in Dolly Partons Dixie Stampede at Pigeon Forge. There she was able to perfect her skills before training her own horse and going out to perform on her own. In addition to trick riding, blonde-haired Jessica is also a roman rider. After graduating from the University, she earned her PRCA card in 2011 and now travels all over the United States with her team of grey quarter horses, Moose and Goose.
Madison McDonald might be called a pro rodeo triple since she is not only a trick and fancy rider but also competes in two regular events as well, team roping and barrel racing, when not engaged as a performer. Just 21 years old, Madison is certainly a rodeo veteran. She has been pursuing her lifelong dream of being a professional trick rider for the past 13 years! She has performed across Canada and the United States during her career. For the past three consecutive years, Madison has been invited to perform at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. Besides successfully pursuing her pro rodeo career, she is also currently attending Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas, where she is enrolled in business administration.

Gizmo McCracken has been supplying belly laughs and loud guffaws to rodeo crowds across our nation for many years. If you have seen him here at Spooner Rodeo before, you know what to expect, unsurpassed laughter and fun for the entire family. If you are not familiar with the comedic style of this rodeo clown extraordinaire, then you are in for the comedy time of your life this year at the 2014 Spooner Rodeo. Who else, for example, but Gizmo McCracken would wrestle a grouchy, old gator in a rodeo arena?
Gizmo became a member of the PRCA (Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association) in 1992. Since that time his list of accomplishments has never stopped growing. He has worked 11 PRCA Circuit Finals Rodeos, including our own Great Lakes Circuit Finals in 1994, 1996, 2000, and 2001. He performed, too, at the Dodge National Circuit Finals in 2006, and at Cheyenne Frontier Days twice, 2001 and 2002.
In 2002 and 2005, he was nominated for Comedy Act of the Year. He lists his biggest accomplishment as being a feature act at the 2005 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Gizmo takes pride in the fact that his humor is good, clean, family style comedy. "Sometimes it just doesn't seem right to have this much fun and get paid for it," he says. To entertain fans everywhere, Gizmo has traveled from Canada to Texas and from Americas East Coast to the West Coast, logging some 45,000 miles a year through dozens of states. Gizmo started his career as bullfighter and moved into stand-up comedy on a show in Branson, MO.
"A lot of Clowns and Specialty Acts sell themselves with a bucking car or a dancing horse." said Gizmo "I supply a Character." And that is just what Gizmo is - many Characters who will find their way into your town, your rodeo arena, and your favorite memories.
"I like to keep people looking for me and wondering what I am going to do next," said Gizmo.
Kelly Kenney was born in 1975 and raised in a small town in southwest Missouri with hard working, loving parents and two older brothers. Kenney credits his parents for allowing his dreams of becoming a cowboy to come true. He says, Just now I realize how many sacrifices my family made to haul me to all of those high school rodeos. (We were) Living off of very little, but I never knew it, I felt I was the richest kid in the world.
At an early age he learned to ride a stubborn little sorrel pony, and it wasnt long before that experience developed into a love of rodeo. In high school, he learned how to rope and bulldog, and how to play guitar. He went to college on a rodeo scholarship. Soon officiating high school and college baseball and basketball, rodeoing, picking and singing consumed his life, leaving him with very little time for anything else. Then accidentally, in 1996. at a rodeo in his home town, the announcer didnt show. Kenney reluctantly agreed to help. That night in November of 96, he was bitten by the entertainment bug, as he puts it.
The next four years of Kenneys life were jammed packed with excitement. He was announcing rodeos and competing hard all summer, officiating college baseball in the springtime, calling basketball games all winter and filling any otherwise vacant time slots with singing gigs. It didnt take long for Kelly Kenney to realize his life was being consumed with work and travel, leaving little time for the things he loved at home - his family, hunting, fishing, and ranching.
In 2000 he became the head rodeo coaching position at Missouri Valley College in Marshall, MO. The next year Kenney was encouraged by his peers, students and family to pursue a career in the field that he had originally started years earlier, announcing rodeos. Kenney turned pro in 2001, resigned from the college in good standing, hung up his officiating uniforms and has never looked back.
Now Kenney announces PRCA Rodeos full time working approximately 30-40 events each year, traveling from Georgia to California and Texas to Montana. Last year he announced three Wisconsin rodeos, Spooner, Madison and Merrill. Despite his busy schedule all around the United States, last year, for example Kenney was able to fit in a fishing vacation in May and a hunting trip in November.
With a cow/calf operation at home, Kenneys life remains full of responsibilities. Kenney says, Now when rodeo season slows down in the fall, I get a chance to go hunting, pick with the band and auctioneer some sales. Most importantly, I get to truly enjoy my family.
The Michael D. Band is a nationally touring independent country band based out of Lexington, Kentucky. Playing over 200 shows a year, the band has performed from Portland, OR to Key West, FL and everywhere in between.

Tour including the World Championships in Las Vegas, NV the past two years and has become a staple band at PBR events. They have performed with numerous nationally touring Country and Rock & Roll acts over the past few years, and play at several fairs and festivals throughout the United States.
The bands album, ROWDY is a driving and edgy record with breakout songs, Thinkin About You and Lets Get Rowdy, along with a fan-favorite Black Dress. This year the Band has been working on a new album. It may be ready by Spooner Rodeo time, for sale there and online. The Band is already playing the new songs from the album in their shows. This next record will have a more eclectic and modern sound to it.
With aggressive lead guitars and a rock solid rhythm section, the Bands energetic performances appeal to audiences young and old. With captivating lyrics, extraordinary harmonies and driving grooves, The Michael D. Band delivers a unique show fusing country and rock in an innovative way, which excites the crowd and leaves them screaming for more MDB features Michael Diekhoff on rhythm guitar, mandolin and vocals; Kevin Rawlings on lead guitar and vocals, and Josh Watson on bass guitar and vocals.

A Servant's Tale (Norton Paperback Fiction)by Paula Fox
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Luisa de la Cueva was born on the Caribbean island of Malagita, of a plantation owner's son and a native woman, a servant in the kitchen. Her years on Malagita were sweet with the beauty of bamboo, banana, and mango trees with flocks of silver-feathered guinea hens underneath, the magic of a victrola, and the caramel flan that Mama sneaked home from the plantation kitchen. Luisa's father, fearing revolution, takes his family to New York. In the barrio his once-powerful name means nothing, and the family establishes itself in a basement tenement. For Luisa, Malagita becomes a dream. Luisa does not dream of going to college, as her friend Ellen does, or of winning the lottery, as her father does. She takes a job as a servant and, paradoxically, grows more independent. She marries and later raises a son alone. She works as a servant all her life. is the story of a life that is simple on the surface but full of depth and richness as we come to know it, a story told with consummate grace and compassion by Paula Fox.
"A rare and wondrous thing....[Fox] knows how to create a character."--
Torn from her tropical homeland, a woman takes a job as a servant in the barrio and, paradoxically, grows more independent. This is the story of a life that is simple on the surface but full of depth and richness underneath.

More quote details and news » is trying to transform itself again, as Chief Executive Samuel J. Palmisano races to stay ahead of the technology industry's fast-changing profit curve.
The top priority this time for Big Blue—which famously dumped its personal computer business in 2004 to focus on consulting and services—is software. Mr. Palmisano wants that high-margin business to account for about half of the company's pretax profit by 2015, up from just over a third in 2003.
In particular, Mr. Palmisano wants to sell programs that help clients sort through the mountains of data being generated by the growing number of transactions and record keeping that have moved to electronic form. Those programs, called analytics, help retailers dig through real-time sales figures to spot unexpected trends or governments plow through piles of records to more quickly catch welfare fraud or find fire risks.
The transformation—fueled by an increasingly aggressive streak of small acquisitions—is shaping up to be as significant as the shift from hardware into services engineered by Mr. Palmisano's predecessor, Louis V. Gerstner Jr.
"If you think about IBM in 2015, it will be as dramatically different as IBM is today versus 2003," said Mr. Palmisano, who became CEO of IBM in 2002. "More and more of our profit will come out of these higher value segments."
At IBM's annual meeting with investors Wednesday, Mr. Palmisano said the technology giant would double its earnings to at least $20 a share by 2015 by more aggressively pursuing business in software and high-growth emerging markets. In five years, IBM expects its giant services business to account for just 38% of operating profit, down from 41% last year.
IBM has spent the past decade shifting out of crowded technology businesses where companies compete mainly on price. The company sold its PC unit to China's Lenovo Group and moved aggressively into services like building information technology systems. Fast-growing Indian companies such as Wipro Ltd. and Infosys Technologies Ltd., however, have cut into the growth potential of that business.
Specialized software, meanwhile, is harder to replicate and still grows at a high rate and commands high margins. Last year, IBM's pretax profit margin was 18.9%, up from 10.6% in 2003. The company's new goal is to reach a pretax margin of 20% by 2015.
"Those are achievable goals," said Allan Krans, senior analyst with Technology Business Research. "Their strategy has really homed in on high-profit businesses."
The problem for IBM has been revenue. Last year, during the recession, IBM's sales fell 7.6% to $95.8 billion, even as earnings rose nearly 9%. In 2008, IBM's sales increased by just 5%. Despite the aggressive profit target announced by Mr. Palmisano, the company stuck to its previous forecast of delivering at least 5% annual growth in revenue.
"I still think they are a little overzealous on the revenue growth," said Sanford Bernstein analyst Toni Sacconaghi Jr. "Five percent growth will be tough."
The company also faces tough competition in the market for advanced business software from companies like SAP AG SAP +0.26% SAP SE ADS U.S.: NYSE $77.63 +0.20 +0.26% Sept. 15, 2014 4:02 pm Volume (Delayed 15m) : 467,009 AFTER HOURS $77.65 +0.02 +0.03% Sept. 15, 2014 5:46 pm Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2,017 P/E Ratio 21.38 Market Cap $95.14 Billion Dividend Yield 1.76% Rev. per Employee $347,536 09/03/14 SAP's Tennis Tool Looks to Cha... 08/27/14 SAP Patent Application for Mob... 07/31/14 Infosys Taps First-Ever Outsid...

More quote details and news » SAP agreed Wednesday to acquire Sybase Inc. for about $5.8 billion, a deal that beefs up the German company's position in software that helps clients mine data in real time and on the road.
IBM is counting on acquisitions to drive more of its growth. Mr. Palmisano said IBM would be a more aggressive buyer, spending $20 billion on deals between 2011 and 2015. Recently, IBM had been spending about $3 billion a year on acquisitions. "In five years we will spend more on acquisitions than the previous ten years," the chief executive said.
IBM said its acquisition strategy would remain focused on scooping up software companies. Since 2003, IBM said it has acquired 57 software companies for around $13 billion.
"They have been acquisitive in the past, and it's worked well for them," said Lucy Patricola, a director at Standard & Poor's.
Another IBM focus is selling technology and services to fast-growing emerging nations such as Russia, India, China and Brazil. IBM is also pursuing business in many smaller markets such as Vietnam, Czech Republic, Egypt, Poland and Argentina. By 2015, IBM expects to generate 25% of its revenue from these emerging markets, up from 19% last year.

American and international schools located in foreign countries are eligible to seek regional accreditation through the New England Association of Schools and Colleges and their Commission on American and International Schools Abroad (CAISA).
Accreditation by NEASC indicates that a school meets or exceeds established criteria within the profession for the assessment of institutional quality through a periodic process of self-study and peer review. An accredited school has the resources to achieve its stated purposes and provides evidence that its students are benefiting from the curricular and co-curricular program offered at the school.
CAISA Accreditation means meeting high level, challenging standards, which are designed specifically by and for American / international schools.
The Evaluation Process itself provides an opportunity to improve the quality of education offered at the school, and the "Award of Accreditation" recognizes the quality of the evaluated school and sends out positive messages to parents, teachers, universities, governments, etc. and results in an improved school for students and the whole community.

NEWS BLOG (WSAU) To understand the Nerf Wars controversy from Tuesday night, we need to go back to Monday. On Monday a letter was sent home to Wausau West parents from the police department. It was a warning about Nerf Wars -- a game where high schoolers shoot each other with Nerf guns. What's the problem? Police warned that trespassing or causing property damage while playing is illegal.
On Tuesday night, police received a 911 from a home on Stevens Drive. The caller believes she saw groups of people roaming her neighborhood pointing firearms at each other. Police responded with an overwhelming presence -- multiple squad cars to block off the street, and then approaching the suspects with their weapons drawn.
There are two questions to ask about the events of Tuesday night. First, how could the original 911 caller mistake a Nerf gun for a real gun. The Nerf gun is made of yellow plastic with a neon orange stock. And second, one night after the police send home a warning about Nerf Wars, how could they react as if a real shoot-out was happening when they get an emergency call from a home that's across the street from Wausau-West High School.
What happened is clear: police wanted a big show of force to put a scare into Nerf War players. The police may hide behind the fig leaf of taking no chances and assuming the worst, but that requires a suspension of one of the most important tools of good law enforcement -- common sense. Police knew exactly what was happening, and still decided to approach with guns drawn.
One of the six students who was cited for disorderly conduct sent out a tweet the morning after. He claimed to have been inside his car, waiting, with his Nerf gun on the passenger seat. Police surrounded his car, drew their weapons, ordered him out, and gave him a citation.
Sitting on the side of the road in a parked car is not disorderly conduct. Other students who are facing similar charges should reject any plea bargain and fight these allegations in court. Hopefully prosecutors will see the wisdom of dropping the charges outright.
The only thing I agree with the police about is that Nerf Wars can't be fought on private property. The solution is simple. As part of senior week activities, why not have a supervised, school sponsored Nerf War on the fields behind Wausau West? It actually sounds like fun.

|Schisandra sinensis
|Scientific classification
Schisandra (magnolia vine) is a genus of twining shrub that generally climb on other vegetation. Some early publications misspell the name as "Schizandra," but "Schisandra" is correct. Various authors have included the plants in the Illiciaceae [2][3][4]
Some species are commonly grown in gardens as ornamentals. It is a hardy deciduous climber which thrives in almost any kind of soil; its preferred position is on a sheltered, shady wall. It may be propagated by cutting off half-matured shoots in August.
The genus has 25 accepted species, most of the native to eastern Asia. Species include: S. chinensis, S. glaucescens, S. glabra, S. rubriflora and S. rubrifolia.
Schisandra is native to East Asia, and its dried fruit is sometimes used medicinally. The berries of S. chinensis are given the name wu wei zi in Chinese (五味子; pinyin: wǔ wèi zi), which translates as "five flavor fruit" because they possess all five basic flavors in Chinese herbal medicine: salty, sweet, sour, pungent (spicy), and bitter. In traditional Chinese medicine it is used as a remedy for many ailments: to resist infections, increase skin health, and combat insomnia, coughing, and thirst[citation needed].
Over 19 species of the genus are said to be used in Chinese medicine, mostly as sedatives and tonic agents.
The extract of S. rubriflora, a native of the Yunnan province, was found to contain complex and highly oxygenated nortriterpenoids called rubriflorins A-C.[5]
