Jacobean-style house with gardens and a working watermill
A passion for tradition and impressing guests inspired one man to transform a run-down country house and desolate landscape.
At the age of 30, the future Lord Fairhaven began to create his first home. Wanting to inspire and surprise visitors, he created a spectacular garden with planting for all seasons and a cosy house in which to entertain. Life revolved around horse racing and shooting, and guests enjoyed 1930s luxury.
Inside: fine furnishings, books, paintings, silver and rare clocks give a feeling of opulence.
Outside: 46 hectares (114 acres) offer vibrant colour, delicious scents and the simple pleasures of nature.

The public school system in the United States has become synonymous with incompetence, frivolity, mediocrity, corruption and more. There is no doubt that in some ways the system is broken and needs to be fixed. We hear constant cries that we are failing our young people, pushing them out into the world lacking the skills needed to lead a productive, fulfilling life; yet, there is evidence to the contrary (see The Myth Behind Public School Failure in the current issue of Yes! Magazine).
This doesn't mean we don't have work to do, because we sure do. Perhaps the work we need to do is more about understanding how to truly meet the educational needs of our citizens while having the will to do so, and not so much about rankings. The how's and what's of course are important, and those of you who are regular readers of this blog know that I have shared some thoughts on the how's and what's in previous posts. This post, however, is an appeal for all of us as a collective to invest in our public education system from early childhood to adulthood.
Why invest in public education:
We need a strong public education system that offers choice and meaningful learning options that are accessible and equitable to all. There exists a plethora of data which shows that a well-educated populace is paramount to the sustainability of a society. A society that invests in a well-educated citizenry is more likely to have opportunities for social mobility, a skilled labor force, a representative democracy and a drastic reduction in the crime rate.
Investing in the education of individuals across the entire lifespan has been shown to raise the national income, increase the GDP and is strongly related with overall life satisfaction. Investing in public education is an investment in an equitable, fair system that helps citizens find meaningful ways to be masters of their lives and make positive contributions to society, regardless of socioeconomic background, political ties, religious affiliations or family history.
Education & Economics:
Income level rises in proportion to the educational level one achieves. While this true on an individual level, it's also true on a national level. For individuals, this is paramount in maintaining a livable, sustainable lifestyle. As one's income level and ability to meet their basic needs goes up, more of their time is freed up to pursue life-enhancing interests and experiences. For a nation, it is critical in its need to stay globally competitive, provide vocations that pay a livable wage and in creating innovations in technology and production. In order to do this, citizens must have access to equitable, affordable education. It does little societal or individual good if only a select few can afford a high-quality education. Taking a solely profit mindset, if citizens are not educated, at least to the level where they can understand how to operate the products being sold to them, they will not buy them. Manufacturers and designers then have to figure out how to make their products easier to operate, often at the expense of quality.
Education & Health:
The link between education and health has been well-established, as one's education level has an impact on their overall health. It would stand to reason then, that investing in public education is also an investment in the overall health of our citizens. Well-educated citizens tend to make better decisions regarding their personal health and have a higher regard for the health and well-being of others. The idea being that a well-educated populace understands the importance of personal and collective health and has the capacity to make health a priority. Healthier citizens also spend less money, time and energy on minor health issues, which allows health professionals to focus on more serious health issues. Not only does this help by redirecting resources, it reduces the financial burden that comes with addressing minor health issues.
Education & Information:
When a populace is well-educated, they know how to access and sort through a wide variety of information. They understand how to apply newly-acquired information in many contexts. In order to maintain a populace that can apply newly-acquired information, there needs to be a public education system that is designed for acquisition and application. The public education system can provide the space for citizens to develop the skills to find an objective truth and reflect upon that truth in light of new information. Changing or reevaluating what we thought we knew in light of new information is an important aspect of a well-educated society. The public education system can serve as the catalyst for a society that is in search of objective truths, uninfluenced and unbiased by political agendas or the desire to cling to old paradigms.
Education & Patriotism:
It's difficult to understand the call's for patriotism by those who fail to see that the benefits of investing in a strong public education system is indeed patriotic; perhaps the most patriotic act a citizenry can undertake. While there is conflicting evidence as to whether education level influences political participation, we have to decide whether we want those who do participate to be discerning, knowledgeable and fair. Often the media is filled with laments from adults that our young people are not well-educated and lack the skills necessary to contribute to society in a meaningful way.
A strong public education system can go a long way in providing young people with the means and desire to contribute to society in a meaningful way. As a patriot of your country, wouldn't you want our citizens to be well-educated and highly skilled? If so, we then have to offer an equitable public education that provides the space for all citizens to be the masters of their own lives.
Education & Social Responsibility:
We have a responsibility to each other as individuals and as global citizens. Our responsibility, at the very least, is to safeguard human rights and dignity. Education is more than just acquiring skills or preparing for the next step, it's about understanding our place in the world and our ability to contribute to a democratic, just and sustainable world. One's education level has an impact on the ability and inclination to be socially engaged and responsible. In short, well-educated people tend to understand the need to work for the benefit of society at large and participate more readily in socially-responsible activities; whereas, less-educated people tend to do so less.
With this higher purpose in mind, public education then becomes a vehicle for the elevation of humanity, social justice and social responsibility. Thus, it is imperative that we have a strong, equitable, sustainable public education system in place.
Education & Sustainability:
The sustainability of our planet, and ultimately, our continued existence, is dependent upon how well we apply our understanding of ecological concepts. We are running headlong into the limits of the industrial revolution, and ignoring this reality or turning it into a political or ideological battle is folly. As David Orr states, we do not need more research to show us that we need to do something about the sustainability of our planet and species. We need innovative and practical solutions coupled with political will. A public education system that provides a strong foundation for innovation, truth-seeking and problem-solving is what will serve as the foundation for the sustainability initiatives we need for the 21st century.
Public Education for the Future:
A strong public education system is the foundation of society. Without such a system in place, it is almost impossible to have equitable educational opportunities and choices. With that said, educational choice is important, and there still needs to be educational opportunities that are part of the private or independent sector. Educational choices must be equitable so that a citizen who chooses public education will have the same quality and depth of instruction and have the same opportunities for employment and further education as those who choose non-public options. Societies with a strong, just public education system are happier, more productive and socially conscience.
Part of government responsibility is to provide a quality public education system so that its citizens are educated well and can be the masters of their own lives. Citizens also have a responsibility to advocate, support and sacrifice for such a system. The future of public education hinges on the ability of our citizens, regardless of occupation, race, age, political or religious affiliation, to recognize its place in ensuring a free, democratic, just and sustainable world. We must also realize that public education needs to prepare citizens to think for themselves, which often creates a difference of opinion, but that is part of public education, that citizens understand the value of being able to have and express divergent opinions.
Ensuring that a strong, accessible, equitable public education system is in place may seem like a lot of work and comes with a high price tag. We need to look no further than the statements made by Clive Bundy and Donald Sterling to see the higher cost of ignorance. A robust, dynamic public education system will give us the best chance of eradicating ignorance and ensure a vibrant, healthy global society.

"This cookbook was created by a loving, Christ-centered fellowship of people who desire to share their best with each other. […] They have enabled us to further carry on a ninety-five-year tradition of good food and fellowship." Heritage Cookbook, First Covenant Church, Seattle, Wash. (1984)
The study of community cookbooks is an emerging field, and few have looked at those published by communities of the Evangelical Covenant Church. The current collection of about forty community cookbooks held by the Covenant Archives and Historical Library suggests the breadth and variety that have been produced by Covenant communities. Published between 1932 and 1988, most were created by women's groups in individual congregations, notably Covenant Women; some are the collaborative projects of two or several Covenant congregations; a few were published by Covenant retirement communities, and one was published by women of North Park Theological Seminary. The collection includes cookbooks that were reprinted multiple times or revised and republished as new editions, and cookbooks that saw one printing run; some were printed and bound by the community members, while others by specialized cookbook publishing companies; some were published to raise funds, others to celebrate the heritage of a congregation for an anniversary. All communicate an aspect of the creating community's heritage and identity, as Colleen Cotter notes in Recipes for Reading: "In a satisfying way, we are all bound by our language, history, family, food, and community. Recipes in many ways can reflect that." These cookbooks also hold more than recipes, and include Bible passages, inspirational or humorous quotes and poems, and helpful kitchen guides such as weights and measures conversions, menu ideas, and spice guides. In times when you couldn't search online to learn what fruits would float in jello, these were books to live with.

We are always adding more books to the Frisk Collection. Just this week we added David Nyvall's Via series, three volumes written in Swedish published between 1926 and 1936 which explores the life of Jesus as written in the New Testament. Also check out Paul E. Larsen's The Mission of a Covenant describing his vision for the Covenant Church published in 1985.

The Frisk Collection not only includes books but also a few periodicals. The Covenant Yearbook began publication in 1885 after the first annual meeting of the Svenska Evangeliska Missions-Förbundet in Princeton, Illinois. Compiled annually, the yearbook is a record of the Evangelical Covenant Church. It contains resources based on reports from the administrative offices, the mission fields, conferences, and the educational and benevolent institutions of the denomination. It also publishes the proceedings of the annual meeting and a current list of pastors and local churches with statistical data. Originally published in Swedish the yearbook gradually transitioned to English-only by the mid-1930s. Included in this selection of the yearbook we have both the English and the Swedish translations from 1885-1889. We are uploading the Covenant Yearbook by decade and currently have 1885-1949 online and available. The entire run of the Covenant Yearbook will be available in the Frisk Collection so keep checking back and maybe your favorite decade will be there soon!
Quotes from users of the Frisk Collection:
"I'm thrilled that you now have so many Covenant publications online."
"The sources you have online are an absolute goldmine -- particularly the yearbooks"

"What I like about the collection as it is developing is its breadth and balance, which may in the future allow for thematic organization of categories. The collection includes seminal works of history and theology, primary (autobiography) and secondary sources (biography) of significant leaders in the ECC, and critical resources developed by the denomination through time. The published annual reports of the ECC since its founding are indispensable. Focused areas like preaching, hymnody and worship, world mission, and women, to name a few, are representative of the potential of the collection in making available the significance of a literary canon largely inaccessible before to most readers." (Philip J. Anderson, Covenant Historian)
After uploading 50 books online on the Frisk Collection of Covenant Literature, it is exciting to show how the collection is shaping up. One book that really demonstrates a major goal of the Frisk Collection is Memories and Personal Experiences by E. Aug. Skogsbergh. Uploading an unpublished manuscript, otherwise only available here in the archives, online as an open source is definitely in the spirit of making the inaccessible accessible. This is the 1972 translation in typescript of E. A. Skogsbergh's autobiographical work. Skogsbergh, a pastor in the Swedish Mission Covenant Church, was the best known Swedish-American evangelist and preacher of his time (known as the Swedish D.L. Moody, who was his friend). He began as an evangelical preacher in Sweden and immigrated in 1876. During his life he established churches in Chicago, Minneapolis, and Seattle, two education institutions, and a successful newspaper. The original Swedish Minnen och Upplevelser: under min mer än femtio-åriga predikoverksamhet (also in this digital collection) was translated by Eric G. Hawkinson, Covenant Archivist, and sponsored by the Commission on Covenant History.

The staff of the Archives and Special Collections is building a digital collection of Covenant publications. The Frisk Digital Collection of Covenant Literature will make accessible hard-to-find original publications, mainly monographs and serials, considered to be key texts in the formation and growth of the Evangelical Covenant Church.
Works will cover a variety of themes such as theology, Bible, history, biography, education, spirituality, mission, and records of various institutions of the ECC. Many works were originally written in Swedish. Available here will be both the original Swedish works and their English translations, many of which were previously only available as archival manuscripts. In addition, other unpublished documents will be selectively included. The new collection joins the digital photograph collection of North Park University and the Covenant Church already made available as part of the CARLI Digital Collections.
The collection is named in honor of Donald C. Frisk (1911-2010), a pastor in the Covenant Church and professor of theology (1945-1978) and dean (1961-1967) of North Park Theological Seminary.

The recently published book Aging in Grace: The Growth of Covenant Retirement Communities 1886-2011 opens with a quote from Karl A. Olsson, Covenant theologian, historian and president of North Park from 1959 to 1970.
From a small mustard seed planted with love and hopefulness more than a century ago, a giant tree has come. Now what matters is the vital essence of the tree, the life expressing itself in branch and leaf..., an unceasing outpouring of love in compassion and caring.
Into One Body...By the Cross, 1986
With this quote Olsson reflects on the work of the Evangelical Covenant Church which celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2010. Benevolent institutions, local churches and conferences started shortly after the denomination was formally organized in 1885. The Northwest Conference, organized in 1884, celebrated its quasquicentennial in 2009. The Midwest Conference celebrated in 2010 and the Midwest Conference in 2011.
Aging in Grace tells the story of the Covenant Church's tradition of benevolence beginning with the opening of the Home of Mercy in 1886 in the Bowmanville neighborhood of Chicago. Read more about the Home of Mercy in this earlier post. The book traces the story of the Home of Mercy which grew to become the Covenant Home and goes on to tell about the fifteen other retirements homes and communities that have served the needs of aging Covenanters and many others across the country.
Eloise Nelson, frequent researcher and friend of the Archives, spent many hours here gathering photographs to write the histories of several of the retirement communities for the book. In coming blog posts we will feature some of the materials Eloise discovered that did not make it into the book.

Vinterny. Stockholm: Missionsförundets Förlag, 1965.
[Winter Anew. Stockholm: Covenant Church of Sweden, 1965.]
Vinterny was published by the Covenant Church of Sweden from 1904 to 1981. The Christmas annual from 1965 featured stories of conversion, evangelism, revivals and mission work. Also included are religious poetry, an historical tale of early traveling preachers in the mountain areas of Sweden, and an article on the religious history of Swedish holidays.
The cover depicts the proverbial fox scurrying over the ice, as sung in Räven raskar över isen, a classic ring dance that is yet today danced around the Christmas tree.
The Christmas magazine shown above is part of the exhibition Jul and Yule: Swedish and Swedish-American Christmas Serials on display outside the Archives in the lower level of Brandel Library through February 2012.

i am working on a very rare subset of mouse DC. Now I got an EGFP-mouse for my protein of interest, but could not detect GFP pos. cells in mouse DC of skindraining LN. The protein is probably intracellularly, but lysis did not help. I only expect very low numbers of
cells - but compared to my non-EGFP controll cells, I could not detect any...
Does anyone have experience with using an anti-GFP antibody (which clone?) in FACS to enhance the signal? Does that make sense? I assumed the GFP signal to be strong enough - if present. I am wrong?
thanks a lot!

Details: A water tower in York is wearing a hat one day, a dress the next, and sometimes both! I wondered what they're up to now. Any guesses? I'll post the answer soon. If you see something that makes you say, "Dang, what's up over there?" post a picture or video and we'll see if we can figure it out.ANSWER TIME! The water tower is being painted inside and out. The contract was awarded to Minoan, Inc. of Parkton, Maryland. It's costing $557,600 and the project is expected to be finished by the end of September. The work required the tank to be drained, but with adequate stoage and low demand this summer, there was no customer risk. This type of maintenance is performed every 10 - 15 years. While the outside work is performed, the contractor used a containment method that includes the use of a "bonnet" at the top, and "curtains" that dropped down the sides of the tank. This helps protect the surrounding environment from any dust or spray. Thanks to Lee Ann Hartmann with Newport News Waterworks for letting us know what on earth they're up to now!

Formula Drift Tech Day Details:
Third year for event at Source Interlink Media in Irvine, CA
700+ local tuners arrive and show-off their rides
More than a dozen competitors inspected ahead of season start
Charles Ng returns in G37 Coupe | ARK Performance campaigning 2 Genesis Coupes, including 1000hp AR1
We spent the better part of the last two months preparing for Formula Drift to return to Source Interlink Media's Irvine, Calif. facility for Tech Day, the annual pro drift car preview and inspection, and encompassing car show. It's become quite the affair after mixed results in stints at Universal Technical Institute in San Berdoo and Super Autobacs in Stanton (when it was around).
Last year's Formula Drift event at the Orange County HQ of Super Street, Import Tuner, european car and Honda Tuning was completely insane in terms of attendees, and organizers were crossing their fingers lightning would strike twice.
It did. By the time the Formula Drift Tech Day event started officially at 10a.m., the massive parking lot behind the Source Interlink Media building was at capacity, as hundreds of enthusiasts came to check out the competition machines as well as take in the impressively big car show and meet. Import models Janey B, Maureen Chen and Sandra Wong were on hand to sign autographs, aftermarket parts were displayed in vendor booths for Mackin Industries and Tanabe, and food trucks Sexy Burger, California Grill Truck and Dos Chinos kept everyone's tummies stuffed.
Inside Source's tech center, Formula Drift Tech Day staff commandeered two lifts to scrutinize the pro drift cars. ARK Performance showed up with not one but two Hyundai Genesis Coupes, the AR7, last year's V6 powered entry now turbocharged and driven by Pat Mordaunt, and the AR1, a new chassis motivated by a 1,000-horsepower blown V8 and piloted by longtime ARK ace Dennis Mertzanis. Charles Ng also made a triumphant return after skipping the last two Formula Drift seasons to run touring cars, showing up with his Achilles Tire Infiniti G37 Coupe.
Other Formula Drift pros like Joon Maeng, Dave Briggs, Odi Bakchis and Forrest Wang brought out familiar entries to Tech Day. Perennial underdog Taka Aono was back with his turbo Scion tC-powered AE86 Corolla, flossing greater boost for 2014 in a quest for 800hp, as was Kyle Mohan, his Mazda RX-8 rocking more steering angle than ever before. Our favorite car of Formula Drift Tech Day, however, had to be FD rookie Andy Hateley's bright orange BMW E30; we imagine the thing is probably viewable from space.
It seems a bit unlikely, considering how much was going on, but miraculously Formula Drift Tech Day 2014 went off without a hitch. And that's a good thing, because next year we're emboldened to go even bigger and better than ever before. Scope the video and gallery to see what Formula Drift and car show action you missed this year.

Well, I'm definitely happy for you.
Oh, uhm..thank you.
Oh, you're pregnant, that makes so much more sense now.
I'll definitely make sure to do so.
Oh. Yeah. I'm sorry, I kind of forget to tell people now since everyone knows.
Pain? Isn't there a doctor you can speak to around here or something?
I'm getting there, or at least I think so.
I've already been. Contracting but not in labour. And I'm not actually in the asylum anymore, I had to leave. But thanks.
That's good. Let me know if I can help at all.
Do you want to talk about it?
It's nice to meet you, too.
Thanks but there really isn't anything to say. I'm just in a lot of pain. Thank you anyway though.
Have you settled in okay?
I won't shout at you.
Or call me selfish?

The teenager accused in a series of vicious hammer attacks in Petworth that left one man dead has been ruled temporarily incompetent by a D.C. Superior Court judge.
In a report prepared for the court, a clinical psychologist says Michael Davis has been treated in the past for schizophrenia and is currently unable to understand the depth of his legal troubles.
Davis stared straight ahead and showed no emotion as several lawyers and a judge discussed the current state of his mental health. None of them were objecting when Judge Robert Morin said he would order inpatient treatment at Saint Elizabeths Hospital for the next 60 days.
Police say the 19-year-old used a claw hammer to attack people without provocation who were walking in his neighborhood.
According to a five-page report prepared by a psychologist from Saint Elizabeths Hospital, Davis "often stared" off into space while being evaluated over a period of two days this week.
He told the doctor he was "doing good" at the Youth in Transition School in Baltimore.
The report says when he was hospitalized last year, his teacher and parent both said they are "afraid of him."
It was noted he has a history of "psychotic issues and hospitalizations."
In addition, the report says Davis reported that he attends the "Green Door" and was "unsure" of his current psychotropic medications.
Green Door is a community program in Northwest D.C. that prepares people with severe and persistent mental illness to work and live independently.
Outside the courthouse, the grandmother of one of the victims said she was unconvinced Davis is incompetent.
"If he can go out and hurt people, he can stand trial," said Barbara Miles.
Miles said Davis' actions after the attack on her granddaughter led her to believe he is sane.
"Because he ran and he was hiding and he was throwing away clothes, evidence, so he's able to stand trial," Miles says. "I really believe he can stand trial on what he did to people."
Davis was charged this week with killing Gary Dederichs, a tourist from Colorado, as he walked back to the place he was staying in the neighborhood.
Police believe the teen, who is the brother of NFL players Vernon and Vontae Davis, also attacked four other people over a three-day period.
So far, he has only been charged in the murder and two of the four non-fatal attacks.
Investigators say they have yet to discover a motive.
Nothing was taken during the assaults, nothing was said and the victims were apparently picked at random.
Davis' family has not hired an attorney for his defense, instead relying on counsel from the public defenders service.
Miles says her granddaughter is still traumatized by the attack, but is out of the hospital and recovering.

NEW YORK (AP) — A former Goldman Sachs trader dubbed "Fabulous Fab" has been ordered to pay about $825,000 in a securities fraud case stemming from the 2007 mortgage crisis that helped push the country into recession.
A Manhattan federal judge issued her ruling Wednesday in the civil case against Fabrice Tourre (fah-BREES' TOOR'). He was found liable after a trial last summer.
His lawyer hasn't immediately returned a call.
The Federal Securities and Exchange Commission said Tourre misled institutional investors about subprime mortgage securities that he knew were fated to fail. SEC lawyers called him a symbol of "Wall Street greed."
His attorneys depicted him as a scapegoat for the financial crisis.
The SEC says the ruling reflects its intent of "pursuing meaningful sanctions" to punish and deter misconduct.

I might be wrong about this, but there doesn't seem to be any way to pickle or otherwise serialize classes defined in the interpreter (admittedly this is a tricky task in CPython as well, but libraries like dill [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/dill/0.1a1] have some tricks that work in that setting).
This capability is desirable for allowing Jython to power an interactive parallel computing environment.
This is an interesting feature request and doable in principle. I suppose any reworking of PySystemState, such as removing mutable statics and improving caching, should take this into account and test for the serializability of PySystemState (which does claim to be Serializable, since it extends PyObject).

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I would be more in favor of option two, promoting a raid leader from inside. The suggestion to try several of your raiders is an excellent one.
My guild is a raiding guild, and our 25-mans are led by one person, and the 10-mans are led by a hodgepodge of members and officers. In a pinch, any of us could lead the farm content. That's a huge advantage and can keep your RL from being burned out.
Hint: let the women lead too. They are just as capable, although they will take longer to win the respect of some of the men they'll be ordering around.
Wow, I can't believe you would even assume that women need to be 'let' into leading positions. If you actually read the article it looks like the guild leader and the assistant raid leader are females who seem to have *gasp* stepped out of the kitchen for a few minutes to play WoW.
Wow Greta, you took that totally the wrong way! I'm a woman who leads raids, and I know first-hand that the boys are very hesitant about this. Maybe I didn't phrase it well, but I did notice that the raid leaders being talked about in the article were all men. Eva, the guild leader in question, didn't seem to be considering leading the raids herself. And, I suppose, who knows what Eva's real-life gender is!
Maybe I have a chip on my shoulder about this, but I do notice that when women lead, they have to work very hard to do so. I also recruit for my guild, and the second I invite someone onto vent to talk about joining, they have a noticeable--either favorable or unfavorable reaction--to my clearly female voice. I think it's good to recognize the male dominance in this game and work against it. Even my own guild had to be pretty much coerced into appointing an equal number of male and female officers.
I just thought that maybe the guild leader in question hadn't even thought of appointing female raid leaders, as most guilds don't.
Lottomannen said...
"Even my own guild had to be pretty much coerced into appointing an equal number of male and female officers."
I would appoint an equal number of competent people. Promoting because of gender is seldom a good idea, regardless of the male/female ratio.

A Clinton Township man was found laying in the street murdered in Detroit. Two months later, his family is no closer to identifying his killer."I don't understand why he would want to hurt him, much less kill him," said Paul Ratzloff.The Ratzloffs join a parade of families looking for justice and begging for one courageous person to speak up.25-year-old Ivan Murad was gunned down on April 16 on Detroit's west side. Police say he had been struck by a vehicle and shot."You not only ruined one person's life, you ruined a whole family. He was only 25 years old. Don't you have a heart for anything? Were you that cold?" Paul Ratzloff, Ivan's father, said."We miss and love him so much. He was our only child. So if anyone out there knows anything, please call," said Laura Ratzloff, Ivan's mother.Murad's parents made a tearful plea to the killer or a witness to do the right thing.Murad loved the Red Wings and the city of Detroit, the very place where he was murdered.His 2006 black Dodge Magnum was found two days later just a few blocks away from the crime scene his parents said can only be described as gruesome."They just tore him to pieces. If you could just see the picture. When we went to identify the body, what he looked like, we just can't get it out of our head," Paul Ratzloff explained."You should be looking up at the sky because somebody's looking at you. He's watching what you do, kiddo," he added. "One way or another you're going to pay for it, okay, because God doesn't allow this kind of stuff."Crime Stoppers is offering a reward for information that leads to an arrest. If you have any information, call 1-800-SPEAK-UP.

A woman is in jail after Beaufort County deputies say they found 40 animals, including 36 guinea pigs, and four children living in unsanitary conditions while under her supervision.
Jessica McManigle was arrested Monday on four counts of cruelty to children and three counts of cruelty to animals.
Robin McIntosh with the Beaufort County Sheriff's Office says four children were taken into emergency protective custody by the Department of Social Services after they were found living in a minivan in front of a home for an extended period of time.
According to McIntosh, deputies also found two dogs, two rabbits, and 36 guinea pigs living in unsanitary conditions in the backyard of the home. The animals were seized by Animal Control and taken to Pet Helpers.
The investigation is ongoing.

The Trendy Tomato
Red tomatoes are full of lycopene, a substance that helps lower your risk of cancer, heart disease, and macular degeneration. But orange tomatoes offer two and a half times more. Apparently, they contain a form that the body can more easily absorb.
Shopping shortcut: The tomatoes used in the study were lab-grown, but researchers say that eating orange- or gold-colored heirloom tomatoes will offer similar benefits.
Make it even healthier: Lycopene is fat-soluble, so you'll absorb more by pairing tomatoes with a healthy fat like olive oil.
Bonus benefits: One cup of orange tomatoes provides 338 percent of the RDA for vitamin A.

The bed folds up into cabinet when the bed is not in use. This frees up a lot of space and will look like a built-in bookcase.

I wonder if you could move the computer /printer on the opposite or side wall of vanity desk, as I'm not sure which side is the entry. Then you could place the day bed or a folding bed in the closet depending on the budget. You will have to remove all shelves and trimmings around the closet.

Chaos Crew..
After a short hiatus, the Chaos Chronicles Podcast is back. I appreciated the concerned emails and Facebook post about my whereabouts the last two weeks. It's good to know someone cares! Here are a few possibilities of what I might have been doing while not podcasting:
- Occupying Wall Street to demand the return of my ATM fees from 1993 to present.
- Waiting for a phone call from Sweden about my Nobel Prize in Literature.
- Refreshing my college Italian to fully absorb the Amanda Knox reversal of fortune.
- Standing on line at the Apple Store for the new iPhone 4S despite the fact that I barely understand how to run my new iPhone 3.
- Providing counsel to Blake Lively after her break-up with Leo.
- Working with Charles Barkley to negotiate last-minute deal with NBA.
- Composing my song for Monday Night Football called, "Get a grip. It's a game with men in tight pants chasing a ball."
- Seeking solace in Chubby Hubby Ice Cream after four network passes on Helen of Pasadena: The TV Show.
- Spreading nasty rumors about newly-announced MacArthur Genii via Twitter.
- Setting up 30-City Tour for Sheila and Lian Comedy Act after smashing success at charity event.
- DVRing the many TV shows that Whitney Cummings is either writing, producing, creating or starring in.
- Rehabbing my hammie after too-enthusiastic fitness instructor insisted on high-paced burpies in first five minutes of class.
- Taking a couple of weeks off because I didn't take any weeks off in August.
Ding, ding, ding! The last answer is actually correct. Several of the previous answers are possibly true as well. But, rest assured, I'm back and ready to talk.
