Thursday, April 25, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (Apr. 25, 2002) -- Virginia Tech spoiled Senior Day for the East Tennessee State softball team, sweeping a doubleheader from the Buccaneers, 10-1 and 6-0, Thursday afternoon from Metro-Kiwanis Park in Johnson City, Tenn. The Bucs (22-28) got on the board first in game one, as they scored a run in the bottom of the first off of Hokie starter Clarissa Crowell. Sophomore leftfielder Tiffany Vandergriff (Sale Creek, Tenn.) led off the inning with a walk and was bunted to second on a sacrifice bunt by freshman centerfielder Danielle Spetar (Knoxville, Tenn.). Vandergriff stole third and later scored on a passed ball. Virginia Tech (34-16) took the lead in the top of the second, striking for three runs. With two outs, second baseman Shanel Garofalo singled and moved to second on a walk to third baseman Megan Evans. Courtney Brinkman then tripled to right field, scoring Garofalo and Evans. Brinkman came home on a single by shortstop Carmen Farmer. The Hokies scored four more runs in the top of the fifth to widen their lead to 7-1. Crowell and catcher Amy Voorhees drew back-to-back walks with one out. Mindi Wylie singled to centerfield to load the bases. Evans, with two outs, doubled to right center, scoring all three runners. Brinkman then hit her second triple of the game to score Evans. Virginia Tech scored the final two runs of the game in the top of the sixth. Farmer led off the inning with a single to right field. Following walks to catcher April Ellenberger and Wylie, Garofalo cleared the bases with a triple to right center, making the score 10-1. Senior pitcher Marsha Giles (Jonesborough, Tenn.), pitching in her final game at home, took the loss (5-10), allowing 10 earned runs on 11 hits, striking out two. Crowell go the win (9-4) allowing no earned runs and three hits while striking out nine. Game two began as a pitchers duel between ETSU freshman Courtney Jenkins (Knoxville, Tenn.) and Virginia Tech senior Ashley Dobbe, as the game was scoreless until the top of the fifth. With two outs in the frame, Farmer hit an infield single and advanced to second on a single by Wylie. Voorhees then reached on an error, scoring Farmer and advancing Wylie to second. Crowell then hit a two-RBI double and advanced to third on the throw to the plate. Crowell would score on another error to make the score 4-0. The Hokies would score their final two runs in the top of the seventh. Farmer hit an inside the park home run down the right field line. Wylie then singled to left field and reached second following an error on a Voorhees fielder's choice. Crowell then singled to load the bases. Pinch-hitter Ellenberger reached on a fielder's choice with Wylie coming home on an error. Jenkins pitched well but took the loss (11-10), allowing just one earned run and scattering 11 hits while striking out three. Dobbe was almost unhittable for Virginia Tech, getting the win (22-11) after allowing just one hit in the game and striking out 11. The Bucs were hitless in the game until Vandergriff laced a single to right field with one out in the sixth. East Tennessee State returns to action this weekend as they close the season with a three-game series against Southern Conference rival Appalachian State. The series begins on Saturday with a doubleheader at 1 p.m.

Loren Mazzacane Connors breaks WNUR's Track of the Day hiatus with a song from his 2011 album, Red Mars. Connors' career has spanned several decades, and he has performed with the likes of Jim O'Rourke, Keiji Haino, David Grubbs, John Fahey, and Darin Gray. He first began making music in the late '70s, releasing several albums of improvised folk and blues. Before a short hiatus from music during the mid-'80s, Connors released several albums with fellow New Haven vocalist Kath Bloom. It wasn't until 1987 that Connors, who has also released music as Guitar Roberts, Loren Mattei, and Loren MazzaCane, took up electric guitar and began releasing his characteristic ethereal guitar music.

A Prince George's County circuit court jury on Nov. 15 found a District Heights woman not guilty of murdering her 18-year-old roommate at Bowie State University.
Alexis Simpson, 20, faced first- and second-degree murder charges, among others, in the fatal stabbing of Dominique Frazier, 18, of Washington, D.C., inside their on-campus apartment Sept. 15, 2011.
During the three-day trial, both prosecutors and defense attorneys said Simpson and Frazier had been arguing since moving into the same apartment more than two weeks before the incident, but they stood by several conflicting details as to what took place that night.
On Sept. 15, 2011, Frazier and two friends were listening to music on an iPod and getting ready to go to a homecoming comedy show when Simpson came in and turned the music off, sparking a dispute between the two that went from Frazier's bedroom to the living room and then back to Frazier's bedroom, prosecutors said.
Prosecutors also said when the fight finished in the living room, Simpson went to her own bedroom, grabbed a knife and walked toward Frazier's bedroom, where the final confrontation ensued.
Defense attorneys said Frazier also had a knife in her bedroom before Simpson entered, but it was unclear as to what was done with that knife. Prosecutors said Frazier placed it in her dresser, and defense attorneys said one of Frazier's friends was holding it during the fight.
Prosecutors also said Simpson rushed into Frazier's bedroom to continue, and end, the fight, while defense attorneys said she was pulled in and was just trying to go to the bathroom, which was next to Frazier's room.
Simpson and her defense attorneys said she felt scared and threatened throughout her time living with Frazier and felt that Frazier and her friends would "jump her."
Defense attorney Christopher Griffiths also said Simpson had gone to property management previously to try to request a room change.
"Alexis Simpson acted in self-defense. She had high hopes for the school year. She wasn't looking for any trouble," Griffiths said to the jury before it went into deliberation Nov. 15. "That little girl was not trying to hurt anybody. She just wanted to be left alone. She swung. That is perfect self-defense."
Prosecutors, however, said it was Simpson who was provoking arguments and taunting Frazier.
"Each and every step she took as she grabbed the knife, she had time to think about what she was doing. She had time to think out the consequences of slashing Dominique's throat," said state prosecutor Christine Murphy.
When Simpson testified in court, she admitted to stabbing Frazier with a knife during a heated argument inside their apartment. She said it was never her attempt to stab Frazier and that she just swung the blade in front of her as self-defense to get Frazier and Frazier's friends away from her.
"I was scared. I didn't want any more confrontation," Simpson said, crying as she testified. "I never wanted to stab her ... I didn't mean to kill her."
Prosecutors said the medical staff that testified earlier in the trial had said the wound in Frazier's neck was two inches deep, her trachea and jugular were severed and her vertebrae was chipped. Prosecutors said Frazier also had a stab wound in her left arm, which they said was from Simpson's first swing. Her finger also had been slashed, which prosecutors said was from Frazier lifting her arm to try to protect herself from being stabbed.
County State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks said she was "stunned" and "disappointed," but respects the jury's verdict and the judicial system.

The City of Santa Clara, from its roots as a Mission City to the home of the new Levi's Stadium and San Francisco 49ers, is revitalizing and reenergizing its brand. The City officially kicked off the initiative with the first meeting of the Council's new Marketing Committee on February 19, 2014.
Chaired by Council Member Debi Davis, the new committee will take on the task of reviewing current city marketing efforts, developing recommendations for a new logo, tagline, and marketing strategy, and creating partnerships to support marketing goals. "A revitalized and energized brand is absolutely essential for us and our future growth," said Council Member Debi Davis.
Santa Clara has been catapulted onto the global stage spurred by the selection of Santa Clara as the home of the new Levi's stadium and San Francisco 49ers. Early indications suggest the new stadium will serve as a catalyst to create greater opportunities for job creation and business expansion and relocation. "Indeed there is great potential here, Santa Clara has an abundance of assets and is already home to some of the world's most successful and high profile corporations like Applied Materials, Intel, Nvidia, Citrix, Agilent Technologies, and Texas Instruments," said City Manager Julio Fuentes.
Leveraging the prestige of the new stadium will certainly help boost Santa Clara's brand image, but the City recognizes the need for a targeted and dedicated branding and marketing effort to attract new businesses and support economic growth. To further enhance its reputation, the City is taking a fresh look at its brand.
The new Council Committee involves a number of community stakeholders that promote Santa Clara as a destination such as the City's Chamber of Commerce, Convention & Visitors Bureau, Santa Clara University, Mission College, California's Great America, San Francisco 49ers and two of the city's hoteliers, Hilton Santa Clara and the Plaza Suites Santa Clara.
Prior to fully developing its recommendations, the Committee is seeking community input on what the City's key strategic assets are and what makes Santa Clara a uniquely attractive place to live and work. There are two ways that the community can provide input and share their perspectives: in person or online. The City will hold two public meetings in April, 2014. The meetings will be held:
Tuesday, April 1 – Central Library, 2635 Homestead Road, Margie Edinger Room, 6:00 – 8:00
Wednesday, April 2 – Santa Clara Youth Soccer Park, 5020 Stars & Stripes Drive, Soccer Park Conference Room 6:00 – 8:00
Or use the link below to access Santa Clara's Open City Hall. From there, input can also be provided online.
A team of Harvard Business School Alumni, partnering with the City on a Community Partners Project, is assisting the City with the community engagement effort. The input captured will lay the foundation for the Marketing Committee's recommendations to the full Council later this year.
Marketing Committee Members: Council Member Debi Davis (Chair), Council member Teresa O'Neill and Council member Lisa Gillmor.
The Marketing Committee meets monthly through 2014, on the third Wednesday of each month beginning at 4:00 pm at the Central Park Library. The next meeting will be held on March 19, 2014.

Planning Your Time in Cairns and the Northern Reef
Fitzroy Island is a little closer to Cairns and is more sedate, with a quiet resort, a house reef, some kayaking, and a couple of beautiful beaches. Green Island, on the other hand, is a full-on tourist attraction, which can turn into a bit of a circus, but if you have kids to entertain and a saunter along the beach or hike through the forest with a sedate lunch just won't cut it, this is your option. There's snorkeling, diving, swimming, glass-bottom boat touring, an observatory, a small weird museum, nature walks, a bar, barbecues, pontoons, and more to keep everybody happy and make for a fun- and people-filled day.
However, it would be best to dedicate a little more time to this part of the world. A minimum of three days, maybe a week would be good, and more would be better.Once you have the base, choose your trips. This region is not explored on foot, although hikes and boardwalks take a high priority when it comes to closely experiencing it. You will need to choose a base and take day trips from there, be it by car or via organized tours. Everybody vaguely connected with tourism in Queensland is aware of this, and the number of tour operators and the combinations they offer is mind-boggling. So, your base should either be Cairns or Port Douglas. Cairns has the airport on the doorstep; Port Douglas is an hour's drive farther north. Cairns is young, bustling with a clientele of backpackers and lots of local and Asian tourists. Fast food restaurants line the Esplanade, live music thumps out of pubs all evening, and there is always something on. Port Douglas is popular with western tourists, many Europeans and Americans. There are no traffic lights and no fast food outlets, although you can get a burger or taco in town; rather, the emphasis is on fine—if relaxed—dining, and it's a quieter stay all around. Both places offer access to all the day trips, but Port Douglas is an hour closer to the Daintree.
Once you have the base, choose your trips. Obviously you will need to spend at least one day on the reef and then one day in the forest, so a day trip to Cape Trib, as it is affectionately called, maybe combined with some croc spotting and a guided nature walk, is in order. If you can spend a night at the Undara Experience, then you could leave your base in the morning, take a leisurely drive through the Atherton Tablelands, get to Undara in the late afternoon in time for sunset. Spend the night, explore the tubes, and head back to base taking a different route through the tablelands.
Depending on what you want and need out of this trip, and whom you are traveling with, the region offers a plethora of thrill-seeking activities, be it bungee jumping, ziplining, or wild-water rafting, as well as more serene ways of spending the day, such as taking the cable car to Kuranda, doing some shopping in the market, and taking the scenic railway back.
The Best Time to Visit Cairns and the Northern Great Barrier Reef
Always bear in mind that this is the tropical north of Australia, and a rainforest doesn't get its name without some precipitation around. The temperatures are never really cold, with summer (Nov.-Feb.) temperatures between 24 and 33 degrees Celsius (75 to 91 degrees Fahrenheit), and in winter (July-Sept.) between 14 to 26 degrees Celsius (57 to 79 degrees Fahrenheit). The summer is the wet season, the so-called "green season," stretching from the onset of the monsoon (usually in November) and ending in May. The rain makes it hot and humid, at times uncomfortable, and can hamper the excursions, although places such as the Undara Lava Tubes adapt to the seasons and, if the tubes are filled with water, offer snorkeling excursions instead of the boardwalk.
The dry season; i.e., the southern hemisphere winter, is the high season up here, drawing more visitors and inviting higher prices. Australian schools have generally a two-week vacation in early July and another in September, and there are some Europeans around on long excursions throughout the season. If you can plan for August, or the fringe times, you should not be overrun with people and should be able to enjoy some of the 300 days a year of sunshine without being too hot.
The water is warm enough to swim in all year round, but keep in mind that box jellyfish populate the shallow waters from October to May. These are nasty critters, giving bad stings, but most popular beaches offer "stinger nets"—netted areas on the beaches to swim in safely. Do check about the conditions before you head to the beaches.

Hyundai debuted a new generation of its Tucson five-passenger crossover during the New York auto show, with equipment such as a dual clutch transmission and LED headlights.
Pricing not available
The following cars represent the most technically advanced available.
A few quirks aside, the 2015 Hyundai Sonata Limited has grown up and now boasts a broader appeal to go with its value, but some of the upstart spark has gone missing.
The 2015 Hyundai Genesis sedan is an excellent sequel to the original, maintaining a great value for a luxury sedan while adding a host of comfort and safety amenities.
The seventh-generation Sonata boasts interior refinements and new tech, including Siri Eyes Free and Apple CarPlay.
A big, powerful, luxury cruiser, the 2014 Hyundai Equus competes very well among stalwarts in the segment, undercutting most in price, and offers some unique tech features to help the driver.
The 2013 Hyundai Elantra Coupe SE is a good value, but its sporty pretenses work to its detriment. Check out the more laid-back sedan, instead.
With more power and more tech, the 2012 Hyundai Sonata SE 2.0T offers a lot of bang for your buck.
The big, comfortable 2012 Hyundai Azera packs more standard tech and amenities than many of its "fully loaded" competitors.
The 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo adds a healthy dose of straight-line performance to its techie, trendy formula.
The 2012 Hyundai Veloster's wimpy engine can't back up its sports-car looks. Fortunately, there's plenty of good cabin tech to keep drivers and passengers entertained.

Recipe by AUNTLYNNIE
"Big Blueberry muffins with a crusty sugar topping. A recipe I got from my Grandma. The blueberries and the sweet batter are fabulous together. Favorites of all who have tried them. Quick and easy, made with few ingredients. Remember to use paper liners!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1/2 cup
unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups
white sugar
1/2 teaspoon
2 cups
all-purpose flour, divided
2 teaspoons
baking powder
1/2 cup
1 pint
fresh blueberries - rinsed, drained and patted dry
2 tablespoons
white sugar
These are verry good but I'm only giving it four stars since the "to die for blueberry muffins" are slightly better. I made both recipes on the same days and they turned out almost identical in flavour. However, the "to die for blueberry muffins" recipe had a thicker batter resulting in rounded muffin tops whereas this recipe is thinner so as it was rising the batter spread out more so the muffin tops were flatter. Vanilla is a nice addition to either recipe, and I would strongly recommend using only fresh blueberries.
These were not "The Best" blueberry muffins and in fact I was a bit disappointed with these. I was expected something really good especially with the amount of blueberries and buttermilk in the recipe. However, even after adding 2 tsp. of vanilla to the batter I found these to be overly sweet and a bit on the bland side. I baked these in Texas sized muffin cups lined with paper liners and topped the muffins with turbinado sugar before popping them in the oven. I baked them at 400 for 23 minutes. And, while they baked up nice and big the flavor just wasn't there.... I think I'll stick to my TNT recipe "Blueberry Cream Muffins" from this site.

every year my family loves this recipe.
to make the buttermilk - 1/2 cup milk add 1/2 tablespoon of white vinegar and let stand for 5 minutes.
easy to make and always comes out great.
This year I substituted 3/4 of splenda for the sugar. Nobody complained. Everybody loves them. They are great muffins.
These are the best blueberry muffins. This is the exact recipe that I have been using for years except that my recipe called for 1/2 cup milk instead of the 1/2 cup buttermilk. I tried it with buttermilk and found that since nobody tasted the difference, why buy buttermilk unless you are going to use it for other recipes. I ended up throwing out the leftover buttermilk since the smallest container i could find was the quart size and i only needed 1/2 cup.
I really wish I could rate this four and a half stars. It's ALMOST there. I cut the sugar back to one cup, added a tsp. of vanilla and used half blueberries/half blackberries. Really great muffin. The sugar topping made the muffins look like bakery muffins. I really didn't use a lot, just a tiny sprinkling over each muffin. Really, really good. I think adding a little lemon rind would really take these over the edge. NOTE: I actually baked these at 400* for about 20 minutes.
absolutely wonderful! i had to make some changes: i used 1 tsp lemon juice with remainder milk to make the 1/2 c buttermilk, i used 16 oz bag of thawed blueberries. i think that was more than it called for. i crushed 1/4 of them and put the rest in as the recipe called for. instead of the sugar on top, i used the following from another recipe:
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter, cubed, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
mix and add before baking
Thanks to all who have given these muffins such nice reviews. The secret to having any fruit stay suspended throughout your muffins is dusting the fruit with a small amount of the flour called for in the recipe. (Just like you do in this recipe) I,like many reviewers, almost always use powdered buttermilk. Lynn
I thought these muffins had a very nice flavor. There were a few too many blueberries for my taste, though. Next time I'll put in half the amount.
One suggestion I do have: if you *really* want them to have a crumb topping, you need to sprinkle more than just sugar on top. Make a mixture of 1/4 cup sugar, 2 Tablespoons of flour and 1 Tablesppon of butter. Mix it all together and top the muffins with that instead before putting in the oven -- YUMMY!

August 3, 1924 – March 27, 2013
Hugh Gordon Stoker, leader of Country Music Hall of Fame vocal quartet The Jordanaires, died on Wednesday, March 27, at his Brentwood home after a long illness.
Mr. Stoker, whose high tenor vocals grace thousands of significant recordings by Elvis Presley, Patsy Cline, Jim Reeves, Loretta Lynn, Rick Nelson and many others, was 88.
"For more than 70 years, Gordon Stoker made enormous contributions to the Nashville music industry, beginning in 1942 as pianist for the John Daniel Quartet on radio station WSM," said John Rumble, senior historian at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. "Singing tenor with the Jordanaires, Stoker backed hundreds of featured artists in the recording studio, ranging from Red Foley, Don Gibson, Kenny Rogers and George Jones to Connie Francis, Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme and Julie Andrews."

Jalovy named Fan's Choice Preseason Runner of the Year

MACON, Ga.

On the women's side Lipscomb took all 10 first-place vote, and was followed North Florida and Jacksonville for the top-three.

La Flavour got its start in Ohio in the late '60s, playing soul covers for live audiences. Today's track comes off the group's only album release, 1980′s Mandolay. "Mandolay" had some success in the clubs, peaking at No. 7 on the Billboard dance/disco charts, and it saw similar success on European charts. Mark Avsec, of Wild Cherry (who joined that group just after their recording of "Play That Funky Music"), wrote and produced the album; in 1983, Avsec released his own version of "Mandolay" under the Art Attack name, which doesn't really stand up to the original. La Flavour's second album, recorded under the name Fair Warning, was shelved before it could see release—due to label concerns that the new Van Halen album, titled Fair Warning, might cause confusion among the record-buying public. A potential single from the album, "She Don't Know Me," was given to up-and-comers Bon Jovi instead.
La Flavour continued to perform in clubs and showrooms through the '80s, at one point incorporating a comedy bit with a couple of Muppet-like puppets into their act. But as the group entered the '90s, work started to dry up. The band's website notes: "While most didn't find it offensive hearing comedy delivered by two cute puppets in the '80s, the 1990′s brought on a whole different attitude toward 'political correctness'." Despite lineup changes and retirements, the (now-puppetless) La Flavour continues to play gigs around the Ohio area.

Bucs capitalize on errors to defeat Wofford, 10-9
Saturday, April 10, 2004SPARTANBURG, S.C. (Apr. 10, 2004) -- Wofford's sixth error of the game brought home the winning run in the 12th inning as East Tennessee State defeated Wofford, 10-9, Saturday afternoon at Russell C. King Field in Spartanburg, S.C. A three-run homer with one out in the bottom of the ninth by Wofford's Steve Casey forced extra innings. Trailing 9-3, Wofford scored three runs in both the eighth and ninth innings. Four Wofford errors in the opening three innings led to six unearned Buccaneer runs. Wofford's six errors was a season-high. A two-out throwing error in the top of the 12th inning scored Buccaneer senior pinch-runner Troy Moock (Baton Rouge, La.) from second with the game-winning run. Two fielding miscues in the top of the first led to ETSU's first run. The Buccaneers (16-19, 7-10 Southern Conference) then had the bases loaded with no outs. However, Terrier starter Jesse Cole escaped further damage by recording a strikeout and double-play grounder. The Terriers (10-17, 3-11 SoCon) evened the game at 1-1 in the bottom of the first on an RBI double by Casey. Two more Terrier errors in the third led to five unearned runs and a six-run ETSU inning. The big blow was a three-run homer by sophomore designated hitter Steven Calicutt (Spartanburg, S.C.). Sophomore center fielder Matt Traylor (Knoxville, Tenn.) and sophomore right fielder Shane Byrne (Johnson City, Tenn.) had run-scoring doubles in the inning while sophomore first baseman Blake Church (Roswell, Ga.) added an RBI single. David Long's two-run homer to center cut the Wofford deficit to 7-3 in the bottom of the third. He added another two-run shot in the bottom of the eighth to bring the Terriers within 9-5. Following Long's second roundtripper, Stephen Johnson gave Wofford back-to-back homers as his shot over the left-center wall cut the Terrier deficit to 9-6. A Buccaneer error and a hit by pitch with one out in the bottom of the ninth preceded Casey's three-run blast that forced extra innings. Buccaneer senior lefty Josh Kite (Greeneville, Tenn.) earned the win (1-2) by holding Wofford to one run on three hits in 3 2/3 innings. He struck out seven without walking a batter. ETSU senior starter Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.) allowed five runs on six hits in seven innings. He struck out six and walked four. Cole went three innings, allowing just one earned run. Six runs against him were unearned. Chad McGill allowed just two runs, both earned, on five hits in six innings of relief. He struck out one and walked one. McGill had only thrown six innings on the year entering the game. Charles Vartanian (2-5) took the loss despite not allowing a hit or earned run in three innings. He struck out five and walked one. Traylor, Byrne, Church, Calicutt and sophomore third baseman Greg Roberts (Douglas, Ga.) paced the Bucs with two hits each. Traylor scored three runs while Church and Calicutt drove in three. Long's two homers for Wofford give him a team-high 10 roundtrippers on the year. Casey and Johnson tied with Long for the Wofford lead with two hits on the afternoon. The Terriers and Buccaneers close their series tomorrow at 1:30 p.m. from Russell C. King Field in Spartanburg, S.C.

Rev. Ridley Barron spoke a vital truth into the lives of students, staff, and faculty of Truett-McConnell College this morning as he expounded on the importance of forgiveness. He brought a compelling message about ridding ourselves of the bitterness we hold inside our hearts towards those who have wronged us. In order for God to be glorified through our lives, we must purpose within our hearts to forgive and also to put that forgiveness into action. Hebrews 12:15 states "See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springing up causes trouble, and by it many be defiled;"

U.S. House Minority Whip Steny H. Hoyer swept Maryland House Minority Leader Anthony J. O�Donnell in Tuesday�s election, winning majorities in each of the 5th Congressional District�s jurisdictions en route to his 17th congressional term.
It was a return to form for Hoyer in St. Mary�s County, where he won 53 percent of the vote. Two years ago, running against Charles Lollar, Hoyer took only 42 percent of the vote in his home county.
Hoyer (D-Md., 5th) received 69 percent of the overall vote and an overwhelming 85 percent show of support in Prince George�s County.
�I have been proud to represent the 5th District in Congress and am honored to have been re-elected by voters to continue serving our community,� Hoyer said in a statement late Tuesday night. �Throughout my career, I have worked on a bipartisan basis in the 5th District and in Washington to deliver results for my constituents protecting and preserving jobs, strengthening our local economy and making important investments in our future. I�m proud of this work and will continue to build on this record so we can put more Marylanders back to work, help businesses grow and expand, and strengthen the middle class.�
Nearly half of the 5th District�s voters live in Prince George�s, where Democrats outnumber Republicans 6 to 1.
Hoyer also easily won Charles County, where Democrats enjoy more than a 2-to-1 advantage over Republicans in voter registration, with 69 percent of the vote. O�Donnell claimed 28 percent of the vote in Charles.
The margins were much closer in Calvert and St. Mary�s counties but still bitter for O�Donnell (R-Calvert, St. Mary�s), who lost both of the jurisdictions he represents in the State House two years after they went in favor of then-Republican challenger Lollar.
�If you really look at the [election] numbers in 2006 and 2008, this puts us right back in the middle,� said Del. John L. Bohanan Jr. (D-St. Mary�s), a senior adviser to Hoyer, of the results in Calvert and St. Mary�s. �Someone described it as a return to normalcy; 2010 really was an anomaly that had to do with national issues.�
Hoyer won Calvert with 49 percent of the vote, while O�Donnell claimed 48 percent.
In St. Mary�s, O�Donnell claimed 45 percent of the vote.
On Thursday, O�Donnell said he believes there will be more of a 50-50 split in Calvert once all the absentee and provisional votes have been tallied.
�We didn�t win this time,� he said, adding that that doesn�t necessarily mean he will run again because no decisions have been made but that people can take that how they want.
�We did just about everything we could with the means that we had. There�s nothing to be ashamed of in fighting the good fight,� O�Donnell said.
Frank McCabe, chairman of the Calvert County Republican Central Committee, said, �We�re clearly disappointed. I think with the limited money we could raise, I�m not sure we could have effectively changed anything.�
�I think we were [surprised] after the results of the last election� in 2010, said Mary Burke-Russell, chairwoman of the St. Mary�s Republican Central Committee. �We felt we had had a good edge with Tony.�
McCabe said that although he gives credit to the Democratic participants behind Hoyer for putting out �a very strong get-the-vote-out effort,� and for the money they were able to raise, �We give credit to Tony that he was able to get that close to Hoyer.�
In St. Mary�s, said Burke-Russell, �there is an irrepressible spirit ... we�re getting stronger all the time, every month. In 2014, we�re gonna work to make the change.�
Calvert County Democratic Central Committee Chairwoman Marie Duffield said Wednesday that she hadn�t had much time to look at the numbers yet, but she believes district residents are seeing what Hoyer has done in the area.
Duffield said Hoyer �represents our district very well. ... And I think that is being recognized.�
�I�m happy and glad because I know two years ago that wasn�t the case,� said Al Coleman, Charles County Democratic Central Committee chairman, of Hoyer�s victory in Calvert and St. Mary�s.
Todd Eberly, a political science professor at St. Mary�s College of Maryland, said he believes, as a political observer in the 5th District, that Hoyer�s �much stronger presence the last two years� helped bring his numbers back up.
�Two years ago, people felt that he was never down here, that they didn�t see him,� Eberly said, adding that the 2010 election was a midterm election, when voter turnout is lower. Also during the 2010 election, he said, President Barak Obama was at his most unpopular, and that trickled down to the 5th District.
State Sen. Thomas �Mac� Middleton (D-Charles) said Thursday that he was surprised by the turnout for Hoyer in the district because of �the anger that was out there� against those in office and those in Washington, D.C. �And I think that speaks to the job Steny Hoyer has done.�
�It�s going to be even more important in the next election, in 2014, to build upon what we�ve done this year,� Coleman said of the Democratic central committees� efforts throughout the district.
Libertarian Arvin Vohra and Green Party candidate Bob Auerbach finished a distant third and fourth, each claiming little more than 1 percent of the vote.

Double Threat: 5 Blockbuster Actors Who Also Play in Bands
Double Threat: 5 Blockbuster Actors Who Also Play in Bands
Acting in major motion pictures is a very time-consuming career. From memorizing scripts and rehearing scenes to attending premieres, it's a wonder Hollywood actors ever have the time to pick up a hobby. While squeezing in a fishing trip in between the Oscars and a shoot sounds reasonable, playing in a band on the regular seems crazy. There are, however, the chosen few who are so committed to both acting and music, they find a way to make it work. And it's not always the typecast leading man who plays a rock star in the movies that has a rock band in real life. (Although sometimes it is him.) We rounded up five of these talented stars who can claim both movie and album credits. Click through the gallery above to find out which of your favorite actors have the music bug too.
1. Aziz Ansari
Aziz Ansari was so inspired by his character in Judd Apatow's Funny People that he decided to bring his hip-hop alias "Raaaaaaaandy" out of the movie and into real life. The Parks & Rec star proved his comedic range by partnering up with David Sitek of TV on the Radio to release an actual rap mixtape. One of the first tracks that dropped was titled "Aaaaaaaangry" and went after all the rappers who refused to deliver on verses for the mixtape, including Eminem, Jay-Z, Dr. Dre, and Kanye. Get a good laaaaaaaaugh here.
2. Scarlett Johansson
When David Sitek partnered up with Ansari to pursue a very serious rapping career, it wasn't his first brush with actor/musicians. He had also produced Anywhere I Lay My Head, Johansson's first album, in 2008. The album, composed of one original song and 10 covers of Tom Waits songs (check out the title track here). It received mixed reviews from critics, but enjoyed enough commercial success that Johansson might come back for seconds in the future.
In the meantime, she kept dabbling in the music industry with projects like the collaborative album Break Up that she recorded with singer/songwriter Peter Yorn. Johansson also appears on the soundtrack of He's Just Not That Into You, and, in 2012, the documentary Chasing Ice featured a song that she added vocals to and it ended up nabbing an Oscar nomination for "Best Original Song."
3. Ryan Gosling
The Notebook cemented Gosling's future as a globally recognized actor, but his music career still flies under the radar. Gosling is one half of the alternative rock duo Dead Man's Bones, and it's where he can really let his indie side out. The first Dead Man's Bones album, released in 2009, was a months-long collaboration with a children's choir. You can check it out here.
4. Zooey Deschanel
In between filming New Girl and being the face of nerd chic everywhere, Zooey Deschanel will be going on tour this summer as the vocals behind indie band, She & Him. And, as if that's not enough, Deschanel wrote most of the songs off their latest album, Volume 3, herself. The new album will be promoted around the US for the next couple of months, and you check out Deschanel and bandmate M. Ward's performance on The Tonight Show here.
5. Johnny Depp
Long before he got behind the cameras, Depp experienced minor success from his lesser known career as a guitarist. He dropped out of high school to pursue his music ambitions, and when his first band "The Kids" broke up, he went on to strum for the band Oasis and appeared in a music video for Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers. Occasionally, he meshed his actor/musician worlds by getting to play guitar in a few scenes from Chocolat, as well as performing numerous musical numbers in the macabre hit, Sweeney Todd. Watch Johnny Depp performing with The Kids in Pompano Beach, FL in 2007 on YouTube.

Charlie Sykes: Sykes Writes
Sheriff David Clarke Responds to Abele's Budget Cuts
The sheriff will join me in the 10 o'clock hour this morning, but he put out this statement last night:
I am not surprised at all by County Executive Abele's low priority for public safety. He demonstrated his disdain for law and order even before he became county executive. There's no questioning his authority to propose a budget for Milwaukee County. My advice to him, however, is to go back and read the state constitution, state statutes and the case law relative to the authority of a sheriff. He obviously did not take the time to educate himself.
He does not run the Office of the Sheriff, and I do not take orders or directives from a county executive. Case law is very clear that the sheriff alone decides how to carry out his duty and responsibility. His budget is an obvious attempt to micromanage my office. I am independently elected by the voters of Milwaukee County. He may think that he can eliminate the Discipline Order Training and Structure (DOTS) program, but let me be very clear on this – the DOTS program is staying.
He may think that he can require me to submit reports, but again, the state constitution is very clear when it states that no county official can require a sheriff to submit reports. He can create any study group that he wants and they can make any recommendations they want. Again, I will refer the county executive back to the state constitution and case law that show that the sheriff alone decides how to carry out the duties and responsibilities of his office. My advice to him is not to hold his breath, because he's not getting any reports.
He talked about shared goals? I don't share his goal to be soft on crime, coddle criminal inmates and excuse criminal behavior. The first thing that will be cut as a result of this insane budget decrease will be in the area of inmate programs. Inmate programs, except DOTS, will cease to exist and the money saved will be applied to keeping the county a safe place for law-abiding people.
Chris Abele ran for county executive, not sheriff. If he wants to be in charge of my office, he's going to have to run for sheriff in 2014. Until then, the voters elected me to run the sheriff's office.

We are the original pioneering brewpub in Colorado.
Being Denver's first craft brewery isn't easy. Since we opened our doors in 1988, we have blazed the trails for the excellent craft beer scene which we are now a keystone member here in the Mile High City. Our award-winning small-batch ales and lagers have pleased our neighbors, friends, and family for over a quarter-century. Everyone who walks through our door instantly joins that family at their first taste of great beer and great food.
Our beers are lovingly handcrafted in small batches by our excellent team of brewers, led by Beer Maestro Andy Brown. Using only the finest all-natural ingredients and pure local water, our distinct flavors are brewed to please all beer drinkers, from the novice to well-seasoned craft veteran. We package our beer in aluminum cans because we firmly believe that fresh beer is the best beer- if you can't have it off of our taps, crack a fresh one out of your fridge and it will taste as if you're sitting at our bar.
From our start in 1988, we've worked to be good environmental stewards in our community. We have been recycling glass and cardboard since we opened our doors. Today these measures are joined by extensive composting, recycling, and water and energy conservation efforts. We package exclusively in aluminum cans which are 100% recyclable, minimizing our landfill footprint. We donate our spent grain to local livestock farmers. Every action that we take we consider our environment as well as our family of customers.

Ana was recently featured in Muscle & Fitness Hers magazine.
The following is an extract from the question-and-answer session with writer Kayla Hutzler:
For you, personally, what's the hardest part of being a professional tennis player?
I love tennis and I love travelling, so really this is the perfect job for me! But no job is perfect, not even tennis, and sometimes the travelling can get a little tiring: you miss home and you miss your family. But overall I don't complain. I really love to compete.
With training, how many hours do you a spend a day in the gym and on the court?
It really varies, depending how close to a tournament I am. The off-season, in November and December, is the most intense training period, and in many ways it sets you up for the year ahead. During this time I will have three sessions per day: at the beginning, two fitness sessions and one tennis, then later on it will be two tennis and one fitness.
During the season, but away from a tournament, it can be similar, but the emphasis is still on tennis, as my coach and I work on some improvements. Still, there will be a few weeks where I do more fitness than tennis.
For the gym work I always find it important to keep things varied, so often I am not in the gym at all: maybe we are cycling through some parks, swimming, running or evening surfing. I love the outdoors.
What does a typical workout for you?
There is no "typical" workout really because we are working on so many different areas, on and off the court. In the gym we will work on strength, endurance, speed and flexibility – sometimes just one of these elements, and sometimes we combine them.
One gym session may look like this: 5-10 minutes warm-up on the treadmill, then we'll do some high intensity cardio, 20 seconds of running at high speeds and getting the heart rate up, then 'resting' for up to a 30-60 seconds at jogging pace. After completing a few sets of that we may work on some postural and stabilising exercises for the back, shoulders and core, using Swiss and medicine balls. We'll also do some lunges and squats.

Action Pack
MICHAEL JACKSON Sing-Along and Dance Party
|The Action Pack
|Michael Jackson
|Run Time
|Age Policy
18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed.
MJ may be gone, but his legend is eternal.
This was our very first music video Sing-Along ever, and it's still one of the best. Because, as we know, Michael didn't make music videos, he made short films. Say, say, say what you want, but we'll be getting our Thriller on, asking Annie if she's okay, and rocking with you all night.
If you've never been to one of The Action Pack's Sing-Alongs before, this is the show to get started with. We'll have a moonwalking contest before the show, select members of every audience will get flashlights to shine around the room every time Michael lights up a piece of sidewalk during "Billie Jean," and when they dance under the water from the fire hydrant during T"he Way You Make Me Feel," we'll make you feel the spray
But be warned, Sing-Alongs aren't just sitting in the theater and cozily watching your favorite artists' videos. In the past, the audience has been known to stand up and leave their seat behind entirely, and always seem to wannabe starting something. And we never stop 'em (even when they grab their crotch and yell out "A hee hee!").
We're also updating this show for 2014, because Love Never Felt So Good is totaly one of our new jams, and there's no way we can't get a little bit of that in the show, too!

|Round Barn Inn on YouTube
The Inn at the Round Barn is one of my favorite places in Vermont. It's in a beautiful valley a few minutes drive from the village of Waitsfield. It's not only a great place to stay but also the perfect venue for a Vermont country wedding if you're in the market for such a dream event.
Dave Hartshorn, shown in the video, owns a farm and farm stand nearby on Route 100 - - about half way between my inn and the Inn at the Round Barn. He has vegetables, maple syrup, honey, and other goodies on hand most of the summer and early fall. It's worth a stop just to see rural Vermont at work.
I have had the good fortune to sample some of chef Charlie Menard's creations and I am happy to confirm that his work is outstanding.

Parents Encouraged to Learn Best Practices for Safe Drop Off/Pick Up as New School Year Begins
Redwood City, CA - August 17, 2010 - As the 2010-2011 school year begins, Redwood City reminds parents and caregivers of the importance of keeping safety in mind during the drop off and pick up of children at local schools. Using safe practices will also decrease the impact that back-to-school traffic has on neighborhood residents. A website with lots of safety information, school drop off procedures, and links to other resources is at www.redwoodcity.org/schools.
The beginning of each school year brings new parents into Redwood City Schools. Often, it takes parents several weeks to become familiar with the best locations and times to drop off/pick up their children. This confusion can create dangerous situations in which children cross the street at unsafe locations, walk between cars, or face increased risks even when crossing at designated crosswalks. Additionally, parents in a hurry sometimes park in bus zones, and in front of private driveways, creating problems for neighbors of the school.
There are a number of "best practices" for dropping off and picking up kids at any school:

En español | Sliding into 60, I realized that not a single "bucket list" out there squared with my crazy-quilt life. Aspirational accomplishments don't move me, but the minor joys and victories I've managed to notch so far sure do. So here are 17 things I'd embraced with gusto by my 60th birthday. (What are some of yours?)
1. A 'friend with benefits'
So my libido's supposed to be waning? Try telling that to my new "friend with benefits" — a wonderful man I've known for more than 40 years. His on-off second divorce keeps us from being a couple at this point in our lives, but our coupling is caring and satisfying. Not bad for our combined age of 125!
2. Dancing
Sometimes you just have to get up and shake your booty. Do it alone or with a partner, in public or in private, as if no one's watching or it's your Dancing With the Stars audition. If you're at home, try it naked!
3. A daily laugh
When I get to the end of a day where nothing's made me laugh — a rare event — I'll watch myself dance naked in the mirror. That usually does the trick.
4. My schnoz
I was teased mercilessly about it when I was growing up. As an adult, I had a boyfriend who told me I'd be pretty if I got my nose fixed. (I wanted to have him fixed instead.) A year ago, after removing a cancerous lesion, my surgeon warned me my nose might never be the same. To everyone's amazement, it grew back without a visible scar. Now I love it — size, bump and all!
5. My body
I learned body acceptance after my husband introduced me to naturist resorts. Sure, I saw some hardbodies there, but most of the bodies were dumpy, scarred, jiggly, wrinkly or creased. These days I like what I see of myself — including, so far, all the original parts.
6. My age
The only good reason to lie about your age is to sneak into a club — something I haven't done in a good four decades. Now I'm 62; if you have a problem with that, you may also have a case of undiagnosed ageism.
7. My wardrobe
No red hats, sensible shoes or form-hiding tops, thanks. If I have it, I'll flaunt it. As for that Old Navy sequined tank, in my defense it was on sale for $8.50. (And I must say I fill it out nicely: New Year's Eve, here I come!)
8. My ability to love again
My husband broke my heart when he died suddenly in 2004, but at least he didn't do it on purpose. Not so the cad I fell in love with a few years later: After asking me to marry him, he abruptly pulled the plug. Painful? Yes, but it taught me I still have a functioning heart, bruised and callused though it may be.
9. Solo travel
A traveling companion can be an asset or a liability. I learned that during a junior year abroad in Ireland in the early 1970s. Winging it alone, you set your own pace and collect your own memories.
10. Solo dining
The funniest things happen when you eat alone. I returned to Dublin a few years ago for my 60th birthday — a post-bad-breakup gift to myself (see "cad," above). In the hotel dining room my first night, the maître d' seated a younger woman at the table next to mine. Her accent betrayed her — Brooklyn, it turned out — and we started chatting. She was on a business trip; when I mentioned the reason for my own trip, she blurted out, "My girlfriend just dumped me!" Over coffee and dessert, we commiserated that jerks come in all genders.

As in "some one who plays video games". Could I just use ゲーマー?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Japanese Language Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for students, teachers, and linguists wanting to discuss the finer points of the Japanese language. It's 100% free, no registration required.
As rintaun says, ゲーマー is the most general term for "some one who plays video games".
In its narrower sense, when describing a person, it can mean a "hardcore gamer" as opposed to just ゲーム好き (げーむずき, casual gamer). For example, if someone wants to say she's just a casual gamer, she might say things like
If you need to differentiate between different gamer types, there are terms that roughly corresponds to the english ones.
That's correct. ゲーマー is the word that is generally used.

In the past five years, The Ridgway Record and The Kane Republican Editor Joseph Bell has acclimated himself to the community by covering everything from news to sports, and throughout those experiences has formed relationships with a wide variety of individuals and organizations. These bonds led Bell to pen numerous commentaries, three of which were recently recognized as Keystone Press Award winners from the Pennsylvania Newspaper Association (PNA).
The columns garnering accolades were those memorializing the late Johnsonburg Area High School football and wrestling coach Tom Launer; the restoration efforts at St. Leo Magnus Roman Catholic Church; and the dismissal of girls' basketball coach Mike Zilkofski by the Johnsonburg Area School Board.

Interpretive Handbook
8628 :
Galactokinase, Blood
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Galactokinase (GALK) deficiency is the second most common form of galactosemia, affecting approximately 1/250,000 live births, with a higher frequency in the Romani population. Individuals with GALK deficiency have a milder clinical presentation than that seen in patients with classic galactosemia, galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT) deficiency. The major clinical manifestation is bilateral juvenile cataracts.
GALK deficiency is treated with a lactose-restricted diet. Early treatment may prevent or reverse the formation of cataracts.
In GALK deficiency, erythrocyte galactose-1-phosphate levels are generally normal and plasma galactose levels are generally elevated. The diagnosis is established by demonstrating deficient GALK enzyme activity in erythrocytes. Testing for GALK deficiency should be performed when there is a suspicion of galactosemia, either based upon the patient's clinical presentation or laboratory studies and GALT deficiency has been excluded. Specimens sent for GALT analysis may be used for GALK testing if the original specimen was received in the laboratory within 48 hours of draw.
GALK deficiency is caused by mutations in the GALK1 gene. Gene analysis is available from some commercial laboratories. Contact Mayo Medical Laboratories for recommendations or contact information for laboratories that offer this testing.
See Galactosemia Testing Algorithm in Special Instructions.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Diagnosis of galactokinase deficiency, the second most common cause of galactosemia
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Low values suggest galactokinase deficiency.
Only results below the normal range are clinically significant. Elevated values have no clinical significance.
See Galactosemia Testing Algorithm in Special Instructions.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
It is important to notify the laboratory if the patient has been transfused prior to specimen collection. The results of testing performed in erythrocytes are invalid following a transfusion, including analysis of enzymes, biochemical phenotyping, or galactose-1-phosphate.
The most common cause of galactosemia is GALT deficiency (see GALT / Galactose-1-Phosphate Uridyltransferase [GALT], Blood). In most cases, GALT deficiency should be ruled out prior to evaluating for GALK deficiency.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
<2 years: 20.1-79.8 mU/g of hemoglobin
> or =2 years: 12.1-39.7 mU/g of hemoglobin

The graduate program in school counseling is designed to prepare you for a career as a professional school counselor in elementary and/or secondary school settings. Throughout the program, students will have the opportunity to develop sound theoretical foundations and effective techniques for guiding and counseling young people. The program is approved by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Education (CACREP) programs and the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE). Upon successful completion of the CACREP program, you will automatically be certified as a school counselor in Maryland. Although the program specifically prepares school counselors, various private agencies outside of school settings are interested in obtaining the service of professional counselors. The school counseling program may be taken on either a full-time or part-time basis.
The graduate program in professional school counseling is designed to prepare a student for a career as a professional school counselor in an elementary and/or secondary school setting. Throughout the course of study, students will have the opportunity to develop sound theoretical foundations and effective techniques for guiding and counseling young people. The program is approved by CACREP, MSDE and, NCATE.
Although studies are intended to prepare students to become school counselors, various public and private agencies outside of school settings are interested in obtaining the services of professional counselors. Because this program is accredited by CACREP, students may take the National Counselor Examination (NCE) administered by the National Board for Certified Counselors during their last semester. A 100 hour practicum and 600 hour internship are required.
Loyola's graduate study program in school counseling was winner of the Southern Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (SACES) Outstanding Masters Counselor Education Program Award for 2003; and a recipient of full national accreditation by CACREP through October 2012, NCATE through 2015, and MSDE through 2015.
The course of instruction involves the successful completion of 48 credits of study on the graduate level including a practicum and an internship in a school setting. Students are eligible to take the National Counselor Exam (NCE) during their last semester of classes. Students seeking the Master of Arts (M.A.) in School Counseling must substitute six of the elective credits for thesis credits.
The following courses are required along with 6 credits of elective courses selected in conjunction with an advisor. Students may choose to take the Counselor Preparation Comprehensive Examination (CPCE) during their last two semesters of study.
600 internship hours must be completed. These hours are equivalent to six credits of elective coursework. Students plan the internship with their advisor.

Let #14 start the rest of the season, Sanchez is horrible!
and yet we are in 2nd place!
Mark deserved to be benched, we'll see how he responds but not to make excuses. I had the opportunity to sit dead center behind the EZ so I could see the development of every play, our receivers suck. There's just nowhere to throw the football. That doesn't absolve his poor play but he is in an impossible spot.
1. Think Sanchez is done in NY?
and, if yes,
2. Whats your answer at QB?
If I were a Jets fan I'd be more than slightly pissed after you guys gave Sanchez that contract
So are you going to answer the questions? Do you think Mark Sanchez is done as the starting QB of the New York Jets? Or is it too painful for you to admit, a bit like it is for Rex Ryan?

text: I'm not saying that he didn't look impressive at times this past season. He did. I'm not even saying that he shouldn't start this year. What I'm saying is that Daniel Thomas had more carries, more yards, and more Touchdowns last year than Miller did. Lets compare. Daniel Thomas had 91 carries for 325 yards and 4 Touchdowns. Lamar Miller had 51 carries for 250 yards and 1 Touchdown. Granted Miller had less fumbles and more yards per carry. I'm just not sure why people think Miller is a lock to start. I don't think he is a lock at all. If I was a bettin man I would think that they would pretty much be splitting carries next year ( assuming we don't sign or draft someone better ). So tell me. Why is Miller such a lock? Just wondering

Great news! Federal money for inspecting horse slaughter plants in the United States could soon be off the table, which would prevent the slaughter of horses for human consumption in the U.S. President Obama's newly released FY 2014 budget proposal includes a request for Congress to block spending by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to inspect U.S. horse slaughter plants.
In 2005, a similar spending prohibition was passed by landslide, bipartisan votes in the House and Senate, shutting down horse slaughter operations in the U.S. However, it was not renewed in 2011, which created the potential for horse slaughter plants to reopen—at the expense of American taxpayers. Horse slaughter proponents wasted no time scouting locations: at least six applications to slaughter horses for human consumption have already been filed with the USDA.
"We are grateful to the White House and USDA for their leadership in ensuring that American horses are not slaughtered on our own soil for foreign demand, especially in light of the daily news from Europe about the horrors of discovering horse meat mixed with frozen lasagna and toxic chemicals in horse flesh sold for food," says Nancy Perry, Senior Vice President of ASPCA Government Relations. "Wasting tax dollars on cruel and dangerous practices makes no sense, and we urge Congress to adopt this budget cut."
Help us ensure that Capitol Hill hears the message to protect our horses, both here and abroad! The pro-slaughter industry will lobby intensely against this newest effort to prohibit federal dollars from being spent on horse slaughter, and our goal is to stop all American horses from experiencing the horrors of slaughter wherever it occurs, so we must continue to support the SAFE Act.
