Jacques Chirac, The French Prime Minister, was sitting in his office wondering what kind of mischief he could perpetrate against the United States when his telephone rang.
"Hallo, Mr. Chirac!", a heavily accented voice said. "This is Paddy down at the Harp Pub in County Sligo, Ireland I am ringing to inform you that we are officially declaring war on you!"
"Well, Paddy," Chirac replied, "This is indeed important news! How big is your army?"
"Right now," said Paddy, after a moment's calculation, "there is myself, me cousin Sean, me next door neighbor Seamus, and the entire dart team from the pub. That makes eight!"
Chirac paused. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have one hundred thousand men in my army waiting to move on my command."
"Begorra!" said Paddy. "I'll have to ring you back!"
Sure enough, the next day, Paddy called again. "Mr. Chirac, the war is still on. We have managed to get us some infantry equipment!"
"And what equipment would that be, Paddy?" Chirac asked. "Well, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and Murphy's farm tractor."
Chirac sighed, amused. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 6,000 tanks and 5,000 armored personnel carriers. Also, I've increased my army to one hundred fifty thousand since we last spoke."
"Saints preserve us!" said Paddy. "I'll have to get back to you."
Sure enough, Paddy rang again the next day. "Mr. Chirac, the war is still on!" We have managed to get ourselves airborne! We've modified Jackie McLaughlin's ultra-light with a couple of shotguns in the ****pit, and four boys from the Shamrock Pub have joined us as well!"
Chirac was silent for a minute and then cleared his throat. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 100 bombers and 200 fighter planes. My military complex is surrounded by laser-guided, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I've increased my army to two hundred thousand!"
"Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!" said Paddy, "I'll have to ring you back."
Sure enough, Paddy called again the next day. "Top o' the mornin', Mr. Chirac! I am sorry to tell you that we have had to call off the war."
"I'm sorry to hear that," said Chirac. "Why the sudden change of heart?"
"Well," said Paddy, "we've all had a long chat over a bunch of pints, and decided there's no way we can feed two hundred thousand prisoners."

An Old Farmer In Kansas Had Owned A Large Farm For Several Years. He Had A Large Pond In The Back, -- Fixed Up Nice; Picnic Tables, Horseshoe Courts, And Some Apple And Peach Trees. The Pond Was Properly Shaped And Fixed Up For Swimming When It Was Built.
One Evening The Old Farmer Decided To Go Down To The Pond, As He Hadn't Been There For A While, And Look It Over. He Grabbed A Five Gallon Bucket To Bring Back Some Fruit. As He Neared The Pond, He Heard Voices Shouting And Laughing With Glee. As He Came Closer He Saw It Was A Bunch Of Young Women Skinny-dipping In His Pond. He Made The Women Aware Of His Presence And They All Went To The Deep End Of The Pond. One Of The Women Shouted To Him, "we're Not Coming Out Until You Leave!"
The Old Man Frowned, "i Didn't Come Down Here To Watch You Ladies Swim Naked Or Make You Get Out Of The Pond Naked." Holding The Bucket Up He Said, "i'm Just Here To Feed The Alligator."
Moral: Old Age And Cunning Will Triumph Over Youth And Enthusiasm Every Time.

a 90 year old man and a 60 year old woman were getting married and went to the doctor for physicals and blood tests. the old woman went in and given her age, she was in fine health. as was the old man but, the old man asked for a sperm count.
the doctor said "sir, given your age and her age, i don't advise you two trying to have kids."
the old man answered, "look here doc, i'm paying you for your services so just do what i ask."
so, the doctor handed him a cup, told him to fill it as full as he could and bring it back. the old man returned with an empty cup.
the doc said, "sir,as your doctor i have to ask why the cup is empty."
the old man said, "doc, i tried with my right hand and it got tired so i tried with my left hand and it got tired. then i got her to help me and she tried with her right hand, she tried with her left hand, she tried with her teeth in, she tried with her teeth out, we couldn't get the lid off the stinkin' thing for nothin."
An elderly couple were getting ready to go to the doctor for the mans
regular checkup. At the clinic the doctor gave the man three cups and requested a sperm, urine, and stool sample. Being very hard of hearing
and confused, he looked at his wife and asked "Huh...what he say".
She replied "He wants your underwear"

Dear Tech Support:
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of space and valuable resources. In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activity.
Applications such as Poker-Night 10.3, Football 5.0, hunting/Fishing 7.5, and Racing 3.6 no longer run they crash the system when selected..
I can't seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications. I'm thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but Uninstall doesn't work on Wife 1.0.
Please help!
Thanks, A Troubled User (SEE REPLY BELOW)
Dear Troubled User:
This is a very common problem about which men are complaining.
Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0, thinking that it is just a Utilities and Entertainment program. Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its Creator to run everything.
It is impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and to return to Girlfriend 7.0. and impossible to uninstall or purge from the system, once installed.
You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is designed to not allow this. (Re: Wife 1.0 manual - Warnings/Alimony/Child-Support.)
I recommend that you keep Wife 1.0 and work on improving the
situation. I furthermore suggest that you install the background application "Yes Dear" to alleviate software augmentation.
The best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE
because ultimately you will have to give the APOLOGIZE command before the system will return to normal anyway.
Wife 1.0 is a great program, but it tends to be extremely high maintenance. Wife 1.0 comes with several support programs, such as Clean/sweep 3.0, Cook-It 1.5 and Do-Bills 4.2.
However, be very careful how you use these programs. Improper use will cause the system to launch the program Nag 9.5 and once this happens, the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is to purchase additional software such as Flowers 2.1 and Diamonds 5.0.
WARNING!!! Never, under any circumstance, install Short-Skirt-Secretary 3.3 because this application is not supported by Wife 1.0 and will cause irreversible damage to your entire operating system.
Best of luck,
Tech Support

The Dinner
A woman goes to her boyfriends parents house for dinner.
This is to be her first time meeting the family and she is very nervous.
They all sit down eating a fine meal.
The woman is beginning to feel alittle discomfort thanks to her nervousness and the broccoli casserole. The gas pains are almost making tears come to her eyes and she lets out a little "one". It wasn't loud but everyone at the table hear the poof. Before she even had a chance to be embarrassed, her boyfriends dad looked at the dog that had been snoozing at the womans feet and said in a rather stern voice "Skippy!". A couple of minutes later she was beginning to feel pain again. This time she didn't even hesitate. She let an even louer and longer "one" rip. The father again looked at the dog and yelled "Skippy". Once again the woman smiled and thought yes! A few minutes later the woman let another one rip. This time she didn't even think about it. Once again the father looked at the dog with disgust and yelled "Darnit Skippy get away from her before she poops on you!"

A young man has always dreamed on owning a Harley Davidson. One day he has finally saved up enough money so he goes down to the dealer. After picking out the perfect bike the dealer warns him that if he leaves his Harley in the rain the chrome has a tendency to rust. He tells the young man an old biker's trick is to keep a jar of Vaseline handy and smear it on the chrome if the bike must be left out in the rain.
A few months later the young man meets a woman and falls in love. She asks him to come home and meet her parents over dinner. He readily agrees and the date is set. At the appointed time he picks her up on his Harley and they ride to her parents house. Before they go in she tells him that they have a family tradition that whoever speaks first after dinner must do the dishes.
After a delicious dinner everyone sits in silence waiting for the first person to break and get stuck doing the dishes. After a long fifteen minutes the young man decides to speed things up so he reaches over and kisses the woman in front of her family.
And no one says a word...! Next he decides to take a more direct approach so he throws her on the table and has *** with her in front of everyone. And still no one says a word...!!! Now he is getting desperate, so he grabs her mother and throws her on the table. They have even wilder ***. But no one says a word...!!!!
By now he is getting very worried and is wondering what to do next when he hears thunder in the distance. His first thought is to protect the chrome on his Harley, so he reaches in his pocket and pulls out the Vaseline. And the father says, "Okay dammit, I'll do the dishes.

HOPKINS COUNTY, Ky. (11/5l/13) - Light of Chance, Inc. will present the 7th Annual Aspire Weekend, November 15-17 in Madisonville, KY.
Aspire, A Weekend of Community Revitalization has had great success in past years with inspiring and motivating both youth and adults. As in previous years, the weekend will include Aspire's signature events, the Teen Summit and Gospel Explosion.
The Teen Summit will be held on Friday at Madisonville Community College from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The summit will include College Prep, Social & Cultural Diversity, Effective Leadership and Healthy Relationships workshops. Brian Early, founder of Think2Change, will serve as the keynote speaker for the day. The summit is open to students from Madisonville North Hopkins and Hopkins Country Central High Schools. Interested students should contact their principal or guidance counselor.
On Saturday evening, Light of Chance and the Destiny Theatre Experience will present Shawn Whitsell's original play, "The Color That Lies Between Us," which follows four couples on a rollercoaster journey through life, love and the complex issues that threaten to tear them apart.
"The play is a very honest look into the issues that affect relationships between men and women," says Whitsell. "Some of the nuances in these stories are specific to the African American community but overall, they are very universal themes."
Whitsell, who has been a part of various aspects of Aspire since it's first year, says he's especially excited about his collaboration with Light of Chance for the play.
"Like Light of Chance, my company the Destiny Theatre Experience is committed to making positive changes in the community so it is an honor for us to partner together," Whitsell says. "It will be an impactful weekend across the board."
The play will be held at Browning Springs Middle School's auditorium at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $7 in advance and $10 at the door.
On Sunday, the Gospel Explosion will be held at Oak Grove Baptist Church at 3 p.m. The non-denominational service will feature ministry from the Breathe Program and Designed by Grace Gospel Choir from University of Southern Indiana. The guest speaker for the afternoon will be Marvin E. Barner, Jr., Senior Pastor of the Mt. Olive Galilee Baptist Church in Evansville, IN.
The weekend will be filled with great information and entertainment aimed at making the community better.

I've always been under the impression that a team if it has not payed a roster bonus does not have it count against their cap space.
If this is untrue, it's stpuid and makes the incentive to pay any roster bonus to a player virtually nill. I'd almost never pay a roster bonus if I were a GM. I'd either re-structure it again or guarantee it.
If the thing is going to count anyway, might as well push it into the future when you either are rebuilding or don't need as much cap space.
Many teams in their rebuilding years do not use all their cap space anyway.
If they have to count an option bonus now that hasn't even been paid yet, that's just dumb. Why wouldn't it count when it was actually paid?

Lithium Ion Batteries: DuPont Introduces Power-boosting Separators, Builds U.S. Production Facility
5:32 AM MDT | August 4, 2010 | Alex Scott
DuPont has introduced a new range of nanofiber-based, polymeric separators for high-performance lithium ion batteries. The separators, marketed under the name Energain, generate more power and ensure a longer life for batteries designed for use in hybrid electric vehicles, the company says. The separator is a sheet between two electrodes that prevents them from touching while enabling lithium ions to pass back and forth, allowing the charge and discharge of the battery. Energain separators are made using a proprietary spinning process that creates...

Raquel Escudero Serrano from Almansa, Spain expanded her tennis experience after winning a trip to the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals in London in November as the winner in the Golden HEAD Ball competition 2011.
The 21-year-old law student, who is playing tennis several times a week since 2008, received VIP seats, roundtrip airfare, accommodation in the players' hotel for three nights and had the chance to hit some balls on the court at the O2 arena, where only the best 8 of the world's tennis players are allowed to play.
Raquel claimed her victory by purchasing a can of HEAD ATP tennis balls in Deportes Amorós in Alicante.
The huge tennis fan has been guided in her appreciation of the sport by her boyfriend, who accompanied her on the trip of a lifetime to London. "At first, I thought it was a joke but when I realised it was real I got excited and phoned to my boyfriend and family to tell it", said the excited winner.
Racquel did get to watch thrilling matches at the O2 Arena in London from up-close, as the top eight finishers on the ATP World Tour battled at the season finale, with HEAD racquet rebels Novak Djokovic (World No. 1), British hope Andy Murray and Tomas Berdych.
"And it was really my dream to meet and greet one of the best tennis players of the world." Racquel said. And indeed, Novak Djokovic took the time during his practice session to say hello to Racquel and sign her giant HEAD ball.
The trip to London was the first exposure to live professional tennis for the lucky winner. "I'm so happy and I can only say thank you to HEAD for giving me this opportunity."
In addition to the grand prize, other contestants won over 1.000 attractive prizes such as HEAD racquets, bags, footwear, strings and of course HEAD ATP tennis balls.
Click on the link below to check out the ATP Uncovered special feature and follow the winner of the 2011 Golden HEAD Ball competition on her exciting visit at the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals in London.

Lewis Hamilton has ruled out Mercedes fighting for the title, saying the deficit is too big to close overnight...
Lewis Hamilton has ruled out Mercedes fighting for the title, saying the deficit is too big to close overnight.
Hamilton joined Mercedes from McLaren aware that a tough task awaited him given the team's lack of pace last season.
But despite Mercedes failing to challenge in 2012, leading drivers Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso reckon Hamilton has what it takes to drag the team to the front.
Hamilton, though, says that probably won't happen this season.
"I think that people are talking us up at the moment," said the 28-year-old.
"Vettel and Fernando are saying that we're going to compete for the World Championship. I really don't see that happening.
"Of course that's our goal, but you've got to remember the car was over a second, sometimes two seconds, off last year.
"We haven't caught two seconds up and the other teams would have put another second on this year, so we've not gained three seconds. That's just a fact.
"Hopefully by the end of the year, we'll have gained three seconds - that's our goal. But definitely not at the beginning."
The Brit, though, did acknowledge that Mercedes could be in a winning position should the rain come down. However, Hamilton says he would rather win on merit than in a lottery.
"When it rains, it definitely makes it more of a lottery. We're working towards being quick in the dry.
"We don't want to have these days gifted to us where some people fall off and we happen to overtake them through luck.
"We want to do it through hard work, and that's what the guys are working towards."
Hamilton highlighted some of his W04's strengths and weaknessess saying the "engine is the strongest point, the downforce is the weakest point. Nice and easy.
"The downforce factor is what everybody's pushing massively hard for. The team won a race last year so they clearly have not such a bad foundation in terms of the mechanical side of the car. But in terms of downforce, that's where we need to improve."

Teddy Riley: Producer Reveals New TV Project, Talks Guy & Blackstreet Reunions

The Newborn Intensive Care Unit at Bridgeport Hospital, under the leadership of Neonatologist Robert Herzlinger, MD, has been saving babies' lives since 1972, making it the most experienced unit of its kind in Fairfield County. Besides Dr. Herzlinger, the Newborn ICU has four neonatologists (physicians specializing in the care of critically ill newborns): Christine Butler, MD; Richard Freedman, MD; Harris Jacobs, MD; and Cheryl Menzies, MD.
Subspecialists associated with the Newborn ICU include pediatricians with special expertise in Cardiology, Critical Care, Developmental Pediatrics, Endocrinology (glands), Gastroenterology, Nephrology (kidneys), Neurology (nervous system), and Pulmonology (lungs).
Because Bridgeport Hospital is a teaching hospital, the Newborn ICU has a round-the-clock team of pediatric resident physicians dedicated to the care of critically ill newborns, ready to intervene at a moments notice, as they were with Olivia Hayes.
The tender heart of the Newborn ICU is its nurses, who are attuned with a special sensitivity to their tiny patients, and to the beeps and buzzes and hums of the monitors and other special equipment that keep track of every breath, every heartbeat.
As well as special care in the Newborn ICU, The Birthplace at Bridgeport Hospital offers special services-including an Antenatal Testing Unit, on-staff perinatologist specializing in high-risk pregnancies, genetic counseling, 24-hour-a-day obstetrical anesthesia, and much more. For instance, in most hospitals pediatricians are not present at a birth, as they were for Kelley Hayes, but because Bridgeport Hospital is a teaching hospital, pediatric residents (physicians getting specialized intensive training in pediatrics) attend all cesarean births.
It's all part of expecting-and being prepared for-the unexpected.

Check all of the photos that we took today during our Members only preview for Frogs!
We premiered the Frogs exhibit today at the Orlando Science Center! From 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. we held an exclusive preview for our members before the exhibit opened to the public. Members had the first look at the over 80 different live frogs and toads this touring exhibit brings to OSC. Guests also got the chance to make their own origami frogs in our arts and crafts section, and even snap a shot with Cha Cha the Frog from Rainforest Café. If you didn't get a chance to come out today, you can still check out the exhibit through the spring. Come check out Frogs before the exhibit leaps away.

It's very nice ... I just wanted to say in my opinion you can't go wrong with the flange wizard radius markers they are made in USA and good quality..... I was in a pinch once I had to cut a circle that was 12' 0" in so I just cut a piece of and tacked a center punch on one end and a soapstone holder on the other end had my helper hold the point in the the center punch hole and I carefully went around in a circle ... Cutting that ******* was the hard part it was 1" plate so I had to freehand it with a torch .... It worked but I had my helper using a rosebud ahead of me preheating

when i was specifically a layout person i had several dividers of different sizes and a pair of sheet metal worker's calipers, and often i would use my six inch dial calipers to strike arcs/circles. i also kept three sets of trammel points for striking large arcs. (trammel points will accept beams of different sizes) the general's were good because you could substitute a pencil for one of your points.
frequently when laying out cones or conical sections where the apex was a good distance we would use a stringline and a trammel point to layout the arc.
these tools, specifically the starrett calipers are expensive today but i'm sure, though i haven't looked, you can buy imports.
then, around 1982 i picked up a TI scientific calculator and using simple linear equations found that i could solve many of these problems at the bench without the need of large graphical, projected view solutions to determine the true length of lines; it was obvious to me then that things were about to radically change; and they did.
i see these little projects and can't help but appreciate the irony that on one level we are moving ahead and on another we are going backwards.
to the guy above that had his helper preheating the plate, they do make cutting tips of different sizes for cutting different thicknesses. that must have looked strange.
HOMEMADE compass for drawing circles
Ok bub .... Don't get all professor on me .. I totally understand cutting tips and there purposes.... I own hundreds from tiny oooo1 to a number six that I have never used ... The plate I cut was only one inch plate ... I could have used a number 1 or 2 I don't remember I'm sure I used a two ... I do remember it had a bunch of milll scale ..... I don't know or care where you work or have worked or your skill level but I betcha my method of using a rosebud ahead preheating has been done in the past and will be done again buy lots of journeyman fabricators ... I work in Alaska we don't use a bunch of of high tech stuff my shop puts out lots of oilfield service piping equipment and tanks you name it we use track torches or plazma cutters or hand torches , slugger drills we don't use punches iron workers c and c machines sub arc or wire .. We burn rod like welders were not technicions we don't use anything else that puts welders and fitters on the bench we do it the old way it works just fine

The other day I came across どうたら and while looking it up I noticed that たら is classified as a particle. どうたら is apparently an abbreviation of どうたらこうたら, so I see that it should work for ああ and そう (by the way, what are these called?), but I'm having a hard time imagining how else it is used.

Each of the classes will be led by experts in their fields, and will culminate with a panel discussion in which participants will be able to interact with these experts and each other.

Series I: Risk Management 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., Monday, Oct. 13 and Wednesday, Oct. 15, Grewen Hall Auditorium 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. (followed immediately by a luncheon), Friday, Oct. 17, Grewen Hall Auditorium Topics and presenters will be announced soon Series II: Fraud, Privacy and Bring Your Own Device Wednesday, Apr. 15, Grewen Hall Auditorium Additional information forthcoming. Series III: Advanced Persistent Threats and the Cloud Wednesday, May 20, Grewen Hall Auditorium Additional information forthcoming. The Future of Being Human An initiative of the McDevitt-Core Professor, Jennifer Glancy, Ph.D., and The McDevitt Center. In light of ecological crisis, rapid technological change, and widespread social alienation, what is the future of being human? Theologians, philosophers, biologists, political theorists, and fiction writers will be among those who engage the question of what it means to be human in the twenty-first century in this multidisciplinary lectures series, to be inaugurated in Spring 2015 and continue through Spring 2017. See schedule of events... Extreme Humanities William Robert, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Religion, Syracuse University 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, February 3 Panasci Family Chapel Edges are engaging. They're where things get really interesting. When human beings reach their edges, touch their limits, extreme things happen: things like ecstasy, transgression, bliss, dissolution. How might we make sense of such extreme experiences? What might they teach us about being human? Lessons From the Human Heart Rob Dunn, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Biological Sciences, North Carolina State University 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 24 Panasci Family Chapel Most of the important discoveries likely to heal your heart come from basic biology. Fungal taxonomy, evolution, and the biology of rare monkeys have more to do with saving the heart of someone you love than do innovations in surgery, transplants or even the biology of heart cells. To Be One is Always To Become With Many: What Ancient Christians Can Teach Us About the Future of the Human Denise Buell, Ph.D., Dean of the Faculty and Professor of Religion, Williams College 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 31 Panasci Family Chapel How might wrestling with ancient materials help transform contemporary understandings of the human and perhaps even change practices of how we are human? Both the biological category of microbes and the ancient notion of the pneuma afford occasions to explore what happens when we cannot presume the boundedness of any creature. The radical vulnerability of all creature, including human ones, both exhilarates and terrifies, but above all requires a response. A Reading by George Saunders George Saunders 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, Apr. 28 Grewen Auditorium with live streaming to the Curtin Special Events Room, James Commons and Reilley Room Science and Religion in Modern America The McDevitt Center at Le Moyne College announces the continuation of its major, two-year initiative devoted to "Science and Religion in Modern America." The initiative brings eminent scholars from the sciences and the humanities to Le Moyne to present their most recent reflections on central aspects of the dynamic relationship between science and religion. Embodying Le Moyne's Catholic and Jesuit commitment to seek the unity of all knowledge, "Science and Religion in Modern America" represents a compelling model for informed and respectful conversation about these critically important issues. See complete schedule of events... What Does the Earth Ask of Us? Robin W. Kimmerer, Ph.D., Distinguished Teaching Professor of Environmental Biology, SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry 7 p.m., Monday, Mar. 23 Panasci Family Chapel Every day, we are showered with gifts from the land. Though the Earth provides us with all that we need, we have created a consumption-driven economy that asks, "What more can we take from the Earth?" and almost never "What does the Earth ask of us in return?" For much of human's time on the planet, before the great delusion, we lived in cultures that understood the covenant of reciprocity, that for the Earth to stay in balance, for the gifts to continue to flow, we must give back in equal measure for what we take. Indigenous environmental philosophy is rich in teachings of how we might enter into reciprocity with the more-than-human world. Can we create a symbiosis between indigenous wisdom and scientific knowledge that can guide us to sustainability? Facts and Values: Environmental Science and Ethics in the Catholic Church Christiana Z. Peppard, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Theology, Science and Ethics in the Department of Theology, Fordham University 7 p.m., Tuesday, Apr. 21 Panasci Family Chapel What does environmental change have to do with debates about religion and science? Against the backdrop of the Catholic Church's multifaceted relationship to scientific inquiry throughout the past few centuries, this talk focuses on evolving Catholic teachings on the intersections of environmental degradation, social justice, and political economy--and their importance for the twenty-first century. What Does Prayer Do? An initiative of The McDevitt Center and is being offered in conjunction with a course developed with funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities' Enduring Questions grants program, What Does Prayer Do?. See complete schedule of events... Praying Between the Lines: Prayer Practices of American Nones A public lecture by Elizabeth Drescher, Ph.D. 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, Sept. 16 Panasci Family Chapel When asked what practices they find "spiritually meaningful," only one traditional religious practice – prayer – is consistently mentioned by the religiously unaffiliated, including Nones who self-identify as agnostic, atheist, or humanist. What does it mean when Nones report that they "pray?" Elizabeth Drescher, Ph.D., is a senior contributor to Religion Dispatches magazine, and a leading expert in many aspects of contemporary American religion, including new digital media and religion, changing patterns of religious identification and affiliation, and Christian responses to violence. She has written for the Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, San Jose Mercury News, Sojourners, Salon, and other leading newspapers and magazines, and her work has been highlighted by National Public Radio, Radio Australia, and the BBC.

By Ryan Wooden @ Knox Vegas Vols On 1929
When Justin Hunter went down on the fourth play of the game in Gainesville two weeks ago, Vols fans everywhere were sent into panic mode as Derek Dooley and company were forced to scramble to replace the production of their star sophomore wide receiver.
Luckily for the Big Orange, the Vols were the benefactors of a well-timed bye week and took advantage by adding a few new schematic wrinkles before hosting the Buffalo Bulls this past Saturday.
The Vols did everything that they could to put that devastating Florida loss behind them as they dismantled the Bulls by a score of 41-10. It was a necessary tune-up as the Vols prepare for another absolutely brutal October schedule.
The Vols played pretty well against an inferior opponent, but how did they fare in this week's report card?

Sights & Attractions in The Pyrenees
The Pyrenees Sights
As the crow flies, the Pyrenees stretch 435 km (270 miles) along Spain's border with France, though the sinuous borderline exceeds 600 km (370 miles). A drive across the N260 trans-Pyrenean axis connecting the destinations in this region would exceed 800 km (495 miles). The three groupings across the cordillera are the Catalan Pyrenees, from the Mediterranean to the Noguera Ribagorçana River south
of Vielha; the central Pyrenees of Aragón, extending west to the Roncal Valley; and the Basque Pyrenees, falling gradually westward through the Basque Country to the Bay of Biscay and the Atlantic Ocean. The highest peaks are in Aragón–Aneto, in the Maladeta massif; Posets; and Monte Perdido, all of which are about 11,000 feet above sea level. Pica d'Estats (10,372 feet) is Catalonia's highest peak, and Pic d'Orhi (6,656 feet) is the highest in the Basque Pyrenees.

Using a twenty dollar, aluminum bottle cutter is much easier and safer than the way the guy in the video did it. If you use a bottle cutter, only make ONE cut. Don't go around and around with it. Take the scored bottle to a safe work place and pour boiling hot water over the cut SLOWLY. Twirl the bottle around slowly too. The hot water heats the glass and the bottle will break exactly where you scored it.
You then can either sand the edges or use a small torch to smooth the glass.
I saw a lot of hand-made glasses on Etsy and they are awesome. Some are hand painted, some are etched.
It might be better for some people to just buy a set of glasses from a merchant on Etsy than to make them but if you are artsy, it's a lot of fun to make your own.
The possibilities are endless with making items from glass bottles. Practice on a bottle or two that you don't care about first. Remember too that you can use the other parts of the bottles. You can cut rings to make necklaces, bottle tops to make hurricane lamps or chimes. Just be safe no matter what you make.

2 feet wide, holds a full bushel of crud
The job site is no place for a mere mortal dustpan. But this 24" wide monster is up to the job. Wide enough to gulp everything a push broom throws at it, this durable reinforced ABS plastic scoop is also perfect for leaves and yard work. Comfortable curved handle clips on to your broom or rake for storage.

The plastic lip on the pan is uneven. I was hoping to use in the shop, but will not be able to sweep cleanly into pan. Buying a scoop shovel would have been money better spent.

i use a miller elite have been for years with no complaints and i sometimes put in 80 + houres a week with it.. i really wouldn't redomend any overhead welding with it but i use it for all types of positions even overhead after this one melts down i have another one in a box bradn new to takes it's place.if i was to just weld in my shop it wouldn't bother me to buy a high dollar shield because in my shop i flip the projects so that way i can run welds on the flat to try to reduce the heat i put on it.
I work in a sheet metal manufacturing shop, so a lot of fit up and tacking with thin steel, ss,and alum, so autodark helps me a ton- especially meeting job times.

I've got a Miller Elite that I've had for a few years now.
No real issues apart from breaking a couple of head bands.
Compared to my mates Speedglas I find the Speedglas more comfortable and the colour through the lens a bit better compared to the Elite.
When this Elite dies I think I'll get a Speedglas helmet next.

Elissa L. PerryTopics of Interest:
This workgroup primarily but not exclusively focuses on issues of demographic diversity and discrimination in organizations. Emphasis is placed on using a variety of theoretical (e.g., social cognitive; legal; relational demographic; person-environment fit) and methodological (lab studies, surveys) approaches to conduct research that helps us understand the role that a variety of demographic characteristics (e.g., age, sex, generational membership) play in the workplace. The implications of demographic diversity for decision making (e.g., selection) and organizational behaviors (e.g., communication, turnover) is explored. Attention is given to the role of individual and organizational factors in understanding issues of demographic diversity and discrimination.
Current Projects:
Generational Stereotypes
This research is concerned with determining whether a case can be made for the existence of generational stereotypes, separate from although related to age stereotypes. We conducted a first study which suggested that a tentative case can be made for the existence of generational stereotypes (stereotypes related to Baby Boomers, Gen X and Gen Y/Millennials). Our second study attempted to further assess and delineate the content of these stereotypes. Study 2 asked two samples of individuals (students and an older cohort) to assess the extent to which each of a series of characteristics (generated from our Study 1) were strongly associated with their image of each of 3 generations.
Based on the results of these two studies, we believe that while they overlap, age and generational stereotypes also have unique content. We recently collected data for a third study which looks at the implications of using age compared to generational stereotypes. In our scenario based laboratory study we ask applicants to read a job description and then evaluate two applicants for the job. Two applicant profiles are presented, one is described consistently across experimental conditions, and the other is manipulated. Subjects are provided with an applicant profile which describes the applicant as either a typical: Baby Boomer, Millennial/Gen Y, 29 year old, or 60 year old. Based on our previous research, we anticipate that people may have more positive feelings about an applicant who is described as a Baby Boomer compared to a 60 year old. We also anticipate that people may have more negative feelings about an applicant described as a Gen-Y/Millennial compared to a 29 year old. We are in the process of analyzing the data so that we may prepare both a conference paper and a paper for publication in an academic journal.
Organization Demography
In light of increasing workforce diversity, it is important to understand the impact of this diversity on organizational outcomes. To date, limited research has investigated how and when demographic diversity influences key organizational outcomes, such as organizational performance and employee attitudes. Further, the limited research that has been conducted does not provide clear evidence for either a direct positive or negative relationship between diversity and organizational outcomes. As a result, there is limited empirically-based guidance to assist practitioners in effectively managing a diverse workforce. Our workgroup has access to a data set collected by a former student. This student used a cross-sectional field study design, involving both questionnaires and archival data collection methods. Her sample consisted of 285 U.S. colleges and universities. We hope to use this rich dataset to explore a number of questions such as how the racial demographic profile of an organization (i.e., a university) may impact the performance of that institution. We are also interested in exploring the processes (e.g., social capital and group processes) by which these effects may occur. In addition, we have data that captures the diversity climate of each organization and we intend to explore the extent to which this variable also influences organizational outcomes. Our workgroup will focus on exploring the data and eventually writing a conference paper.
HR for the Non-HR Manager
In 2004, Carol Kulik wrote a book on HR targeted toward line managers who must engage in HR related activities at work. Carol has asked me to join her in writing a revised version of this book. The original edition provided an overview of human resource activities for the non-human resource manager and the revised version will do the same. The overall organization of the book will follow a manager's human resource activities from the initial recruitment and selection of new employees, through compensation and performance appraisal decisions, and ultimately to the unpleasant but sometimes necessary disciplinary and termination actions. We are updating the material in the original chapters and adding chapters that address onboarding, training and development, and retention. There are several unique features of this book. First, this book is firmly grounded in the academic literature. Its content reflects the latest and most robust research findings in human resource management. Second, the book "translates" this academic literature into reader-friendly non-technical language and delivers practical guidelines to managers about how to apply research findings to their own organizations. This book also is accompanied by an instructor's manual which includes a variety of exercises and cases that must also be updated. The work group will be involved in helping the authors to update the book and the instructors' manual. This book is due to be completed in 2015.
Recent Projects Near Completion:
Gender Stereotype Violation
People have beliefs about how women and men typically are (e.g., descriptive stereotypes) and expectations about how they should and should not be (e.g., prescriptive and proscriptive stereotypes). Women are expected to be communal (e.g., warm, caring, nurturing). Men are expected to be agentic (e.g., aggressive, assertive, competitive). Those who violate gender stereotypes experience social and economic penalties referred to as backlash. For example, successful women in male-typed jobs are perceived as competent, but cold and hostile and consequently they are liked less. Similarly, men who are successful in female-typed jobs are perceived as more ineffectual and less respected than women. We have designed and conducted two scenario based laboratory studies to study the implications of gender stereotype violation.
Our first study explored the implications of stereotype violation for a male and female target employed in a male-typed job. Results revealed that a male target who violated gender stereotypic expectations (by not being clearly competent in a strongly male-typed job) was perceived less positively (less competent and agentic) and in turn experienced more negative employment outcomes (e.g., training, promotional opportunities) relative to a female target who violated gender stereotypic expectations (by being clearly competent in a strongly male-typed job). We are currently revising this paper for publication in an academic journal.
We also conducted a second study that explored how engaging in a communal role (i.e., providing eldercare) impacts perceptions about women and men who are employed in a male-typed job and who violate their respective gender stereotypes. We are currently completing the analyses and write-up of this study.

Kosher Poultry
|Roasted Spatchcocked Turkey with Stone Fruit Compote
by Chef Laura Frankel, Executive Chef for Spertus Kosher Catering
By butterflying the turkey, the term is called "Spatchcocking*, the cooking time is greatly reduced. I learned how to do this many years ago in culinary school and fell in love with the technique.
For the turkey:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Place the turkey breast side down on a sturdy cutting board. I like to put a couple of paper towels under the turkey so it does not slide while I am cutting it.
Place the chopped vegetables in a large roasting pan. Season the turkey on both sides with salt and pepper. Rub the bird with olive oil and the chopped herbs.
Place the turkey on the vegetables, breast side up. (The vegetables will keep the turkey from sitting in its juices and getting soggy. The vegetables also scent the turkey drippings)
Roast the turkey for 20 minutes, lower the heat to 325 and continue roasting, brushing with pan juices occasionally for 1 hour.
Brush with juices and continue roasting for another 15 minutes.
Remove the turkey and tent with foil and allow to rest for 20 minutes before cutting.
Discard the vegetables and reserve the turkey drippings. Skim off the fat and set aside.
Serve the turkey with Spiced Stone Fruit Compote (recipe below).
Yield: Serves 8+
Black Pepper Spiced Stone Fruit Compote
If you cannot bear to let go of summer and want to hold on to it through the Jewish Holidays, try this fragrant compote. End of the summer stone fruit are sweet and fragrant. I like to make a large batch of the compote and serve it with Roasted Turkey, duck or chicken. For an easy weeknight dessert in the sukkah, I serve the compote over yogurt or vanilla ice cream as summer's last hurrah.
3 cups coarsely chopped stone fruit, such as peaches, nectarines, and plums (about 1 pound total)
Cut a 4-inch square of cheesecloth. Tie the spices and lemon zest in the cheesecloth and secure with twine.
In a small saucepan, combine fruit, honey, pinch of salt, water and spice bag. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is soft, about 30 minutes. Transfer the compote and let cool.
Yield: 2 cups

Remember how Susie Sharf suggested that we get a Misto Olive Oil sprayer for Passover rather than using that (nasty, plastic-tasting) KLP "butter" spray?
I thought: "Gosh, that's such a good idea. I'm definitely going to do that."
And then I promptly forgot about it.
But Amazon didn't forget!
Right now, you can get the Misto M100S Gourmet Brushed Aluminum Olive Oil Sprayer for just $8.50, normally $15.99. (Full disclosure: Bed Bath and Beyond sells this for $9.99. Even still – a nice little savings.) All the benefits of Pam spray, with none of the chemicals or propellants.
And it ships for free with your Amazon Prime / Amazon Mom membership, so no wasted gasoline for you.
My taste buds will definitely thank you, Amazon!

Field Hockey
Field Hockey Coaching Staff
Pam Bustin
Head Coach
The 2013 NFHCA South Region Coach of the Year and a member of the USA Field Hockey Hall of Fame, Pam Bustin has revitalized the Duke field hockey program in her four seasons in Durham, guiding the Blue Devils to a 51-33 ledger and a trip to the 2013 NCAA title game.
The Blue Devils earned their third NCAA Tournament bid in four years in 2014, concluding the season in the quarterfinals with a 13-7 record. Bustin's squad started off the fall on a six-game win streak for the program's best start to a season since 1978. Duke hosted the ACC Tournament for the first time since 2008 and featured three All-America selections in Abby Beltrani, Lauren Blazing and Aileen Johnson.
A historic 2013 campaign saw Bustin guide Duke to the NCAA championship match for the fourth time in program history and the first time since 2005. The Blue Devils reached the title match with a 3-2 semifinal upset of top-ranked and top-seeded Maryland, a win that also marked the 200th of Bustin's collegiate coaching career. The squad finished the fall with a 17-7 ledger, including five wins over top-10 opponents, while Paula Heimbach, Emmie Le Marchand and Lauren Blazing received All-America recognition and Bustin was named the South Region Coach of the Year.
In 2012, Duke sent six players to the Junior Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico, where they gained valuable international playing experience despite missing five regular season games. The Blue Devils concluded the fall with a 7-11 record, though 10 of the 11 losses on the season were to opponents ranked in the top 25 nationally.
Bustin's first year at Duke saw the team finish the season ranked sixth in the nation, advance to the 2011 ACC Championship match with a 2-1 victory over eventual national champion Maryland in the semifinals and earn an NCAA tournament bid. Bustin earned ACC Coach of the Year honors at the conclusion of the season for the third conference coach of the year accolade of her career. She was previously named Big East Coach of the Year and MAC Coach of the Year.
In four years, Bustin has overseen 11 All-America selections, 20 All-South Region picks and 13 All-ACC honorees. During her tenure, the team has also excelled off the field with 25 selections to the All-ACC Academic team. The squad has been recognized at a national level, twice earning Gladiator by SGI/NFHCA Division I National Academic Team distinction after compiling a collective team grade point average that ranks among the best in the country. Individually, 30 Blue Devils have been named to the Division I National Academic Squad, with Lauren Blazing and Kendra Perrin receiving Gladiator by SGI/NFHCA Division I Scholars of Distinction accolades.
At Louisville (1998-2010)
Prior to coaching at Duke, Bustin served 13 seasons at the helm of the Louisville program. After joining the Cardinals' staff in 1998, Bustin transformed the squad into a six-time regular season conference champion – including three league crowns each in both the Mid-American Conference and the BIG EAST – and a mainstay among the nation's elite programs. In her 13 years as head coach at Louisville, she recorded 11 winning seasons, compiling an overall record of 153-119 (.562) while playing one of the toughest schedules in the country.
As a member of the BIG EAST Conference, Bustin led Louisville to three consecutive regular season titles in 2006, 2007 and 2008. Following the 2008 season, she was named the BIG EAST Coach of the Year, directing the Cardinals to a 14-7 overall ledger, the conference regular season championship and a berth to the NCAA Tournament. In 2005, Louisville's first season as a member of the BIG EAST, the Cardinals produced one of the premier offenses in the country, leading the nation in scoring.
In the Cardinals' final season in the MAC, Louisville captured both the 2004 conference regular season and tournament titles, earning its second consecutive NCAA Tournament bid. The 2003 season saw Louisville win its first MAC Tournament championship, receiving the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history. In 2002, Bustin led Louisville to the MAC regular season crown, following the Cardinals' debut in the top-20 rankings in 2001 as Louisville climbed as high as No. 6 in the national polls. For her efforts, she was named conference coach of the year in both 2001 and 2004.
At Hofstra (1997)
Bustin's Early Years
USA Field Hockey Experience
Prior to coaching at the Olympic level, Bustin served as team captain on the United States Under-21 team from 1987-89, competing in the 1986, 1987, 1989 and 1990 U.S. Olympic Festivals. In 1989, she helped the U.S. capture a silver medal at the Junior Pan American Games before being named to the U.S. National Team, playing with the national squad through the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
Bustin was selected to the USA Field Hockey's Hall of Fame Class of 2014, the first group to be inducted since 2004.

text: Applying for Transfer Admission A prospective transfer student at Le Moyne College is defined as a student that has graduated from high school and has taken courses for credit at a regionally accredited college or university. Students currently attending high school who are taking college courses for credit are considered prospective freshman and should consult the section Freshman Admission. Candidates for admission must file an application by August 1 for fall admission and by January 5 for spring admission. The Admission Committee reviews completed applications for admission on a rolling basis, so it is advantageous to apply well in advance of these deadlines. Completion of Application Students applying for transfer admission to Le Moyne College must complete either the Le Moyne College Application for Transfer Admission or the Common Application. Official Transcripts An official transcript must be submitted from the applicant's high school and from each college attended. Students should have transcripts sent directly from the high school and/or college. Official SAT or ACT scores are also required. Students should have these sent directly from the testing service or through their high school guidance office. Applicants who have completed more than 24 college credits at the time of application are not required to submit a high school transcript or test scores. Admission Criteria Applications will be evaluated on the strength of the academic program in college, the grades earned, and the applicability of coursework to a Le Moyne degree. For students transferring to Le Moyne from regionally accredited institutions, and from academic programs similar to the intended major at Le Moyne, the following guidelines usually apply. Students must have earned at least a 2.6 cumulative grade-point average to be considered for admission to most programs. Proficiency in English, mathematics and the intended area or study must be demonstrated in the academic record. In mathematics, all students must have successfully completed at least the third year of high school college-preparatory mathematics or intermediate algebra at the college level. Transfer of Credit Tentative transfer credit evaluations are available at any point in the transfer process by contacting a Le Moyne transfer admission counselor. Once a student has enrolled at Le Moyne and final transcripts have been received, the registrar will complete a final review of the transfer credit evaluation. Le Moyne will accept for transfer credit only coursework satisfactorily completed at regionally accredited institutions. A maximum of 60 credits may be accepted from a two-year college and a maximum of 90 credits may be accepted from a four-year college. Courses in which grades of "D" were earned, and courses taken pass/fail will not transfer to Le Moyne. Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and College Credits Earned While in High School Students who completed Advanced Placement (AP) courses, International Baccalaureate (IB) or other college-credit-bearing courses while in high school must submit official scores/transcripts for transfer credit consideration. For more specific information regarding granting of credit for courses taken during high school, consult the Le Moyne AP Credit Guidlines or call the Office of Admission. Course Recommendations Successful transfer often depends upon careful course selection at the previous college. For this reason, as soon as a decision is made to pursue transfer to Le Moyne, students are encouraged to meet with a Le Moyne transfer admission counselor to plan the courses to be taken prior to transferring. Appointments with a counselor may be made by calling the Office of Admission. Applications Le Moyne College Application for Transfer Admission Common Application Application for Re-admission Merit Scholarships for Transfer Students The following merit scholarships are available for entering transfer students: $12,000 for 3.75-4.00 GPA* $10,000 for 3.50-3.74 GPA* $8,000 for 3.25-3.49 GPA* $6,000 for 3.00-3.24 GPA* $4,000 for 2.75-2.99 GPA* *cumulative grade point average To be eligible, prospective recipients, at the time of application, must have completed a minimum of 24 credit hours at a regionally accredited college or university and plan to attend Le Moyne College as a full-time student. Scholarships are renewable based upon the recipient maintaining good academic and social standing at Le Moyne. Members of Phi Theta Kappa may also be eligible for our $3,000 PTK Scholarship.

J. Mayer H.'s Striated JOH3 Apartment Complex Reinterprets the Classic Berliner Residential Building
JOH3 is a unique residential building in downtown Berlin developed by Euroboden and designed by J. Mayer H.. Located on Johannisstraße in Mitte, Berlin's downtown district, the seven story building neighbors both the Museum Island and Friedrichstrasse. The ground floor provides commercial space and the interior courtyard is a private respite for residents of the multi-unit building. The apartments all face south-west, opening to the calm, carefully designed courtyard garden as well as daylight. The sculptural louvered facade works to protect the interior from overheating and provide privacy.
Each apartment enjoys a private patio to enjoy the outdoors and natural ventilation eliminates the need for air conditioning. The use of heat exchangers help to reduce energy use. Some of the larger apartments enjoy their own gardens and a green roof on top provides additional insulation. Rainwater is harvested from the roof and stored in cisterns under the basement. This water is used for toilet flushing and washing machines to reduce potable water use.
