PAWTUCKET – Bill Donnelly has done a pretty good job of putting Vietnam in his rear view mirror.
"I came home from the war and went right back to where I was before," said Donnelly, a former rifleman with the 196th Light Infantry Brigade. "I had been a kid from Pawtucket Vocational who played a lot of sports and was having a good time when I got drafted. I returned home two years later, resumed playing basketball and softball, and began my own printing business."
Donnelly had a lot of difficult Vietnam memories to suppress. He threw himself into his work and his sports outlets.
"What I had seen in Vietnam, there was no use trying to explain to people when I came home," he said. "If they can't hear and feel and smell Vietnam the way we did, they would never understand what I was talking about. You had to be there."
Along with a million other Americans of his generation, Donnelly got a letter in the mail from President Lyndon Johnson, requesting his presence in the military machine that the government was expanding for a major war in Vietnam.
"I got drafted in September of 1965," Donnelly recalled. "I had been working for the Paramount Card company in the printing department before I got drafted. I was inducted on Oct. 19 and reported to Fort Dix. Then I was sent to Fort Devens, Mass. for basic training. That's where they were forming the 196th, a special unit of light infantry. By light infantry, I mean we would have no tanks with us.
"Very few of us knew much about Vietnam," Donnelly added. "Remember, this was 1965. The United States was dealing with a flare-up in the Dominican Republic and everyone thought we might go there. I went home on leave in the summer of 1966 and when I got back, we had our orders for Vietnam. Some of us had to look on a map to see exactly where Vietnam was located.
"We boarded a troop transport ship in Boston and sailed through the Panama Canal. Then we sailed up to Long Beach, California, where they reloaded the ship. We stayed there two nights and then we sailed across the Pacific. It took us 30 days to reach Vietnam."
Donnelly smiled at the memory of that ocean voyage.
"I always said I spent more time on the ocean than some of the guys who were in the Navy."
Donnelly's 196th LIB set up camp in Tay Ninh, a province capital about 30 miles northwest of Saigon and no more than eight miles east of the Cambodian border and the famed Ho Chi Minh Trail, a supply line for soldiers and supplies used by the North Vietnamese army.
"The camp wasn't even ready yet," Donnelly said. "We all went on sand bag details. Later, we started going out on operations. The 196th participated in operations called Attleboro, Gadsen, Cedar Falls and Junction City One and Two. We went all through the Hobo Woods and the Iron Triangle. My unit lost 50 percent of the guys I started out with over there.
"The first time we got pinned down, you wonder how you're going to get out of there. It's nothing like the war movies we used to watch back home. I talked to an officer one day and 30 minutes later he was dead. It just didn't seem real. As a soldier, you really started to appreciate everything about life back home."
Donnelly doesn't speak to any specific details about Vietnam. Guys who have seen a lot of combat tend to block it out rather than sit around telling stories to their buddies back home about what they had seen in the war. He speaks in general terms, in a quiet voice, when asked direct questions about Vietnam, but there are things he's just not going to talk about.
"I suppressed my memories about Vietnam," he said. "I felt so glad and lucky to get out of there alive. I saw so many people who were unlucky and did not come home. They were the heroes. When I got home (in 1967), I felt sorry for the kids I knew who had to go over there."
The war would last until 1975. Donnelly played softball and ran his printing business shop on Central Avenue.
"I used Vietnam as a crutch," he said. "No matter how bad things got in my life, I said it can't be as bad as Vietnam. Going to war makes a man out of you, that's for sure."
"I didn't get involved with any veteran's organizations until I was around 45 years old," he said. "I'm a member of the Vietnam Vets Chapter 818 in Cumberland. I am a past commander of the Eugene T. Lefebvre Post 1271. I've been a District 5 commander of the VFW and a past state commander of the VFW. I'm also a member of Disabled American Veterans."
Donnelly lists his involvement with veterans organizations for a very definite reason.
"I think every veteran should register with the VA," he said. "Just go down to the VA Hospital in Providence and sign up. A lot of veterans don't even know what benefits they can receive by joining the VA.
"The VA will put you in a priority category. Every veterans' organization has a service officer who will interview you and find out what benefits you qualify for. They can help out vets who are out of work or are ill.
"My advice to any vets not in the system is to visit the local VFW, DAV, Purple Heart, American Legion or Vietnam Veterans organization and talk to their service officer," Donnelly added. "If you have a problem, they will help you out. For free. Go down to the VA office on Westminster Street in Providence. The DAV is located there, too. They have a great service officer, Rich Vaccari, who helps out veterans all the time."
Donnelly's serious demeanor lightens when he speaks about veterans helping veterans. Vietnam is just a distant memory for him now. Helping fellow veterans is something that drives him 45 years later.
"If I can lead veterans to people who can help them out, then I feel pretty good about myself," he said.

The ability to perform protein quantitation assays in six Promega luciferase buffers was determined using two commercially available assays. We recommend diluting Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ Luciferase Assay Reagents to 0.1X. For cell lysis buffers, we recommend a buffer concentration of 0.1X or 1X, depending upon the specific assay used.
Natalie Betz
Knowing the protein concentration of cell extracts to be used in reporter assays is important, as it allows for normalization of reporter signal to total protein amount to be determined.
The purpose of these experiments was to identify whether two different protein assays could be used to determine protein concentration with Promega's cell lysis buffers as well as reconstituted Steady-Glo® (Cat.# E2520) and Bright-Glo™ (Cat.# E2620) Luciferase Assay Reagents. These luciferase reagents include components for cell lysis and provide for a homogeneous luciferase reporter assay. Homogeneous reporter assays are assays in which quantitation directly from cells grown in multiwell plates is performed. Preparation of lysates is not required.
Four Promega lysis buffers were tested: Reporter Lysis Buffer (RLB; Cat.# E3971), Cell Culture Lysis Reagent (CCLR; Cat.# E1531), Passive Lysis Buffer (PLB; Cat.# E1941) and Glo Lysis Buffer (GLB; Cat.# E2661), each at 1X and 0.1X concentration. Two commercially available protein quantitation assays were tested: NI™ (Non-Interfering) protein assay by GenoTechnology, Inc. (Catalog #786-005) and NanoOrange® protein quantitation kit by Molecular Probes (Catalog #N-6666).
Promega's RLB, CCLR, PLB and GLB buffers contain detergents and reducing and chelating agents. The NI™ protein assay works in the presence of reducing agents, chelating agents, detergents and amines, as well as many other compounds and buffers. This product includes "universal protein precipitating agents" (UPPA™) that remove the proteins from the interfering agents present in solution. The assay is based on the specific binding of copper ions to the peptide backbone of proteins. The color density is inversely related to the amount of protein present. The manufacturer states that the assay is linear between 0.5–50µg for the standard and microassay protocols.
The NanoOrange® kit contains a primary reagent that is virtually nonfluorescent in aqueous solution but undergoes a dramatic enhancement in fluorescence upon interaction with proteins. When bound to proteins in the provided diluent, the reagent exhibits a broad excitation peak at 470–490nm and a broad emission peak at 570–590nm. The assay can be used with standard fluorometers, minifluorometers and fluorescent microplate readers. The manufacturer states the sensitivity of the assay to be between 10ng/ml–10µg/ml; the assay is supposed to be insensitive to reducing agents and nucleic acids.
RLB, CCLR, PLB and GLB were diluted to either 1X or 0.1X using Nuclease-Free Water. The Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ substrates were resuspended in the buffers provided with each reagent. Serial dilutions of BSA (Factor V from Sigma) were prepared in each of the lysis buffers, luciferase assay reagents or in water, from a 100mg/ml stock.
NI™ Protein Assay: BSA dilutions were prepared at 0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0 and 20.0µg per 5µl. An aliquot (5µl) of each was then processed to determine protein concentration according to the manufacturer's protocol:
NanoOrange® Protein Quantitation Assay: Dilutions of BSA were made as above and processed according to the manufacturer's protocol:
Previous results (Figure 1) demonstrated the NI™ protein assay to be compatible with 1X RLB, CCLR, PLB, and GLB lysis buffers. This protein assay was tested further with 1X Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ Luciferase Reagents. The results of this experiment (data not shown) demonstrated that the Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ reagents gave less than optimal results at 1X concentrations, with high background readings and no linearity with protein concentration. Perhaps something in the Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ Reagents interferes with either the protein precipitation step or the color development step. [Note: absorbance decreases with increasing protein concentration with this assay].
Standard curves using BSA (bovine serum albumin) were generated using the non-interfering assay with the BSA sample in water, Reporter Lysis Buffer (RLB, Cat.# E3971), Luciferase Cell Culture Lysis Reagent, 1X (CCLR; Cat.# E1531), Passive Lysis Buffer (PLB, Cat.# E1941), or Glo Lysis Buffer (GLB, Cat.# E2661; buffer for use with the Bright-Glo™ (Cat.# E2610) and Steady-Glo™ (Cat.# E2510) Luciferase Assay Systems). Upper Panel: 0–100µg protein. Lower Panel: 0–20µg protein.
To determine whether diluting the Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ Reagents improved the compatibility with the NI™ protein assay, these reagents were diluted 1:10 and a BSA standard curve was generated. The results (Figure 2) demonstrate that diluting the Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ Reagents to 0.1X resulted in acceptable linearity between protein concentration and absorbance.
We next investigated whether the various lysis buffers and luciferase reagents were compatible with the NanoOrange® protein quantitation assay. This commercial assay kit is easy to use, especially in high-throughput applications as compared to the NI™ protein assay. BSA standard curves (Figure 3) were generated in 1X or 0.1X RLB, CCLR, PLB, GLB, Steady-Glo® Reagent and Bright-Glo™ Reagent. For this assay system, fluorescence increases with increasing protein concentration, as seen in Figure 2 for the water control. At 1X concentrations, all lysis buffers and luciferase reagents did not appear to be compatible with this protein kit. The background readings were high and relative fluorescence was not linear with respect to protein concentration (data not shown).
All buffers and reagents were tested at 0.1X concentration. Values are relative fluorescence units (RFU).
However, at 0.1X each of the lysis buffers and luciferase reagents exhibited reduced background levels and increased linearity (Figure 2). The background levels for GLB and Steady-Glo® and Bright-Glo™ Reagents were still relatively high, but a linear relationship between fluorescence and protein concentration was observable.
To determine protein concentration using the NanoOrange® fluorescent protein assay (Molecular Probes) in any of the four lysis buffers or luciferase reagents, samples must first be diluted 1:10 with water prior to analysis. For the NI™ protein assay (GenoTechnology) in either the Steady-Glo® or Bright-Glo™ Reagent, samples also must be diluted 1:10 with water; this assay can be used with any of the four lysis buffers undiluted. For accurate protein quantitation using these or any other assay kits, the standard curve must be generated in the same dilution of lysis buffer or luciferase reagent.
When performing protein assays in experiments that include the Steady-Glo® or Bright-Glo™ Reagents, cells must first be washed once with 1X PBS. Then luciferase reagent is added to an equal volume of 1X PBS, which is added in turn to the cells. Do not add the reagent to standard culture media as sera will interfere with the protein assay. Alternatively, cells can be lysed using a lysis buffer, and an aliquot of the lysate is then used for protein determination as described above.

Nico Hulkenberg will swap Force India for Sauber next season with the Swiss squad finally confirming his signature...
Nico Hulkenberg will swap Force India for Sauber next season with the Swiss squad finally confirming his signature on Wednesday.
The German has widely been mooted for a move to Hinwil following McLaren's decision to sign Sergio Perez from Sauber, but both parties have stayed tight-lipped until now.
Sauber team principal Monisha Kaltenborn confirmed that they have had their eye on Hulkenberg, who has spent the last two seasons at Force India, for quite some time now.
"We've been observing Nico for some time now and his performances have been very persuasive," she said. "That was the case in GP2 and has continued into Formula 1.
"An obvious highlight was how he scored pole at Interlagos in 2010 despite the most challenging external conditions.
"He clearly showed that he can seize the chance if it arises. But high spots like that are one thing; systematic teamwork is another - and on that score I have confidence in Nico too. I'm sure he will fit in very well with the Sauber F1 team. We look forward to working together with him."
Hulkenberg made his Formula One debut with Williams in 2010 before spending the 2011 season as the reserve and test driver with Force India. The Silverstone squad handed him a race seat for this season and he has impressed, picking up 49 points so far.
"I'm really looking forward to working with the Sauber F1 Team," the 25-year-old said.
"It's a well-placed team and very competitive.
"Plus it's a team in which young drivers have repeatedly delivered exceptional performances. I would like to take up that baton.
"The Sauber F1 Team is currently going through a very positive development and I'm certain that together we can achieve a lot.
"Until that time I will remain fully focused on my job with the Sahara Force India Team. I'd like to thank the management at Sahara Force India for giving me the chance to return to Formula One as a team driver."

I must have her in motuc!
I would like to see her changed up a little though.
Skeleton-Warriors, Ra-Jar, Spinwit, Rock Golem, Evil Seed, Lord Masque, Prahvus, General Tartaran, Hawke, Slob-Boar, King Agho, Hunga the Harpy, Sh'gora, Masks of Power Demons, Nocturna, Lizzor, Horde Wraiths, Sagitar, Crimson Fury, Lodar, Vizar, Angast, Negator, Melaktha, ABC Giants, Stridor
If the original Man-E-Faces and Ram-Man were veterans of the Great Unrest (as shown in the 200X series), they would be way to old to be members of the new Masters Of The Universe. Air-Bag and Fork-Lift are kinda cool, hopefully their will be more characters added to "He-Ro, Son Of He-Man".
Lot of loose ends left open. We'll just have to see what happens as the MOTUC bios come out.
With all the loose ends about the He-Ro: Son of He-Man story line I'm going with the MOTUC Story. I like He-Man and Teela being Dare's parents and Duncan his grandfather, that gives him such a great legacy.
And when it come to Kay-La, I don't believe in the whole cousin hooking up thing so the ideal of Clamp Champ as her father works for me and brings so much more to the story line... IMO
Last edited by Jedi_Kunle; July 28, 2013 at 06:58pm.
Wow... Flutterina and Clamp Champ as her parents, should make for a great new story line and redesign for her character.
I would love to see her in this line or a later SOH subline
My wants:Evil Seed, Calix, Hungra,Sneer, Veena, Lady Slither
This may be the only SOH character I find interesting other than Gray and Queen Teela. I'd pick her up.
It's all been done before. Everything to say has already been said. Do me a solid and pretend I posted something witty and original here
Yeah, aside from Queen Teela and Dare/He-Ro, Kay-La is one of the soHM characters that I'd love to see made in the Classics line before it ends. It's interesting that Clamp Champ gets together with Flutterina in the new bios. My redesign of Kay-La borrowed more from Netossa & Clamp Champ...It seemed right to me since they were both masters of capturing things!
I wouldn't mind if they stick to the original MAA (Duncan or Fisto) lineage, though...As long as she gets made, I'll be happy!
Like He-Man & She-Ra artwork? Check out my latest art and MOTUC pics at Havoc Staff!
I am really excited about Kay-la and hopes she makes it into the line somewhere, but this is the Kay-la I am hoping for. Not the one pictured above. She would be an awesome addition to the Masters collection!Kay-la SOH.jpg
Awesome redesign!! Have to say I prefer that over the original.
But it sounds to me like the Classics SoH gang are not going to follow these characters/designs at all.
after we get a He-Ro II & Skeleteen, & maybe a Queen Teela, I fully support a Kay La. I fear it is not to be. THough I hope a Son of He-Man line will follow MOTUC. Makes the most sense. So there is hope.

Test ID: RPTU
Protein, Total, Random, Urine
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Evaluation of renal disease
Screening for monoclonal gammopathy
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Protein in urine is normally composed of a combination of plasma-derived proteins that have been filtered by glomeruli and have not been reabsorbed by the proximal tubules and proteins secreted by renal tubules or other accessory glands.
Increased amounts of protein in the urine may be due to:
-Glomerular proteinuria: caused by defects in permselectivity of the glomerular filtration barrier to plasma proteins (eg, glomerulonephritis or nephrotic syndrome)
-Tubular proteinuria: caused by incomplete tubular reabsorption of proteins (eg, interstitial nephritis)
-Overflow proteinuria: caused by increased plasma concentration of proteins (eg, multiple myeloma, myoglobinuria)
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.
Males <0.11 mg/mg creatinine
Reference values have not been established for male patients <18 years of age.
Reference values have not been established for male patients >83 years of age.
Females <0.16 mg/mg creatinine
Reference values have not been established for female patients <18 years of age.
Reference values have not been established for female patients >83 years of age.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Total protein >500 mg/24 hours should be evaluated by immunofixation to determine if a monoclonal immunoglobulin light chain is present, and if so, identify it as either kappa or lambda type.
Urinary protein levels may rise to 300 mg/24 hours in healthy individuals after vigorous exercise.
Low-grade proteinuria may be seen in inflammatory or neoplastic processes involving the urinary tract.
In a random urine specimen, a protein/creatinine or protein/osmolality ratio can be used to roughly approximate 24-hour excretion rates. The normal protein-to-creatinine ratio for males 18 to 83 years is <0.11 mg/mg creatinine and for females 18 to 83 years is <0.16 mg/mg creatinine. The normal protein-to-osmolality ratio is <0.27.(1) For patients <18 years of age and >83 years of age no reference range has been established.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
False-positive urine protein levels (increased) may be due to contamination of urine with menstrual blood, prostatic secretions, or semen.
Protein electrophoresis and immunofixation may be required to characterize and interpret the proteinuria.
Clinical Reference Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

He y'all,
First time on this forum, but long time blue user. Was wondering if anyone out there may want to make a trade. I have a 2050 spectrum that works great, but I feel it is to big for the work i do. I think I need a smaller machine, but it could just be me. I usually cut nothing larger than three eighths and this thing is rated for more than double that. Should I hang on to this that I have or would a smaller unit benefit me better? If so does anyone have smaller unit they would be willing to trade on?

We examined the effects of nonoptimal SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) loading and running conditions on the results of cell-free protein expression reactions using the TnT® T7 Quick for PCR DNA System. Nonoptimal conditions can result in anomalous or uninterpretable results.
Natalie Betz
In vitro transcription/translation is a simple and fast method to synthesize small amounts of a protein or to confirm the presence of an open reading frame. The newly synthesized protein is often analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to estimate the size of the protein produced. We have found that a number of factors, including the denaturation temperature and the volume of TNT® reaction loaded per well, can affect SDS-PAGE and cause anomalous or uninterpretable results. In this article, we examine the effect of these factors and show examples of problems observed under nonoptimal conditions.
In vitro transcription/translation reactions were performed with the TnT® T7 Quick for PCR DNA System (Cat.# L5540) as directed in the TnT® T7 Quick for PCR DNA System Technical Manual #TM235(1)
. Reactions contained 4µl of 35S-methionine (Amersham Cat.# AG1094) and 500ng (5µl) of the T7 Control DNA (Cat.# L4821), linearized with Eco47 III or uncut (supercoiled). The T7 Control DNA encodes the 61kDa firefly luciferase protein. Negative control reactions with no DNA or 500ng of supercoiled pSP72 (Cat.# P2191) were also set up. Reactions were incubated at 30°C for 90 minutes. Aliquots of 1–10µl of each reaction were mixed with 5µl of 4X NuPAGE® LDS Sample Buffer and 2µl of NuPAGE® Sample Reducing Agent and heat denatured at either 70°C for 10 minutes, 85°C for 5 minutes or 95–100°C for 2 minutes. Samples were separated on a 4–12% Bis-Tris NuPAGE® polyacrylamide gel, and run in NuPAGE® MES SDS Running Buffer in the presence of NuPAGE® Antioxidant. Once the dye front had reached the bottom of the gel, the gel was fixed for 30–60 minutes in 50% methanol/10% acetic acid, then soaked for 5 minutes in 7% methanol/7% acetic acid/1% glycerol and dried for 1 hour at 70°C under vacuum on a gel dryer. The dried gels were exposed to autoradiograph film at room temperature for 3–16 hours.
To examine the effect of denaturation conditions, 2µl of a TnT® reaction was denatured at 70°C for 10 minutes, 85°C for 5 minutes or 95–100°C for 2 minutes prior to SDS-PAGE. The results are shown in Figure 1. Very few background bands were seen in the negative control reaction (no DNA template, lane 1). For this control template and amount of reaction loaded per well (2µl), all three denaturation conditions appeared comparable. However, feedback from other users of TnT® Systems suggests the results of denaturation are protein-dependent and that some proteins can migrate as higher molecular weight proteins, presumably protein aggregates, when denatured at higher temperatures.
A constant volume (2µl) of each TnT® T7 Quick for PCR DNA System reaction with uncut or linear T7 Control DNA was heat denatured as indicated and analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The dried gels were exposed to X-ray film overnight. Lane 1, no template DNA (negative control reaction); lane 2, uncut (circular) T7 Control DNA; lane 3, linearized T7 Control DNA (70°C for 10 minutes); lane 4, linearized T7 Control DNA (85°C for 5 minutes); lane 5, linearized T7 Control DNA (95–100°C for 2 minutes).
To investigate the effect of loading increasing volumes of a TnT® reaction onto a gel, we denatured increasing amounts of the reaction with the T7 Control DNA (1, 2, 4, 6 or 10µl). Denaturation was performed at 70°C for 10 minutes or 95–100°C for 2 minutes. The samples were separated by SDS-PAGE, and the dried gels were photographed. Figure 2, Panel A, illustrates how unevenly the protein migrated in lanes containing 6µl or 10μl of the TnT® reaction. The lane containing 10µl of the TnT® reaction was particularly distorted when denatured at the higher temperature. The corresponding autoradiograph (Figure 2, Panel B) also shows that the lanes containing 6–10µl of the TnT® reaction are quite overloaded, especially the 10µl lane. In addition, denaturation of samples containing more protein (i.e., the 10µl sample in lane 10) showed high-molecular weight protein retained in the well of the gel (lane 10), while this did not occur when the denaturation was performed at 70°C for 10 minutes (lane 5). We do not recommend loading more than 5µl of a TnT® reaction in a single lane of a polyacrylamide gel, and when loading larger volumes, protein denaturation should be performed at 70°C for 10 minutes for optimal sample migration.
Panel A. Increasing volumes (1, 2, 4, 6 or 10µl) of a TnT® reaction were heat denatured at 70°C for 10 minutes (lanes 1–5) or at 95–100°C for 2 minutes (lanes 6–10) and separated on a polyacrylamide gel. The gel was dried and photographed. Panel B. The dried gel was then exposed to X-ray film for 3 hours.
We have determined that the way in which TnT® reactions are prepared prior to SDS-PAGE can affect the results and can complicate interpretation of the data. The rabbit reticulocyte lysate used in the TnT® Systems has a high protein concentration (100–150µg/µl), which increases the risk of protein aggregation upon heat denaturation and overloading of an SDS polyacrylamide gel. To avoid distortions associated with these phenomena, we recommend limiting the volume of TnT® reaction loaded per lane to no more than 5μl. We also recommend denaturing proteins at 70°C for 10 minutes rather than the standard 95–100°C for 2–3 minutes, especially when volumes larger than the recommended 1–2µl are loaded on the gel.

In cooperative, I am finding books, but when I click on them - they just turn into gold... Does this mean I already have read them or do you not get the lore in multiplayer?

You will only get experience the first time you pick up a specific book. Any time after, you will only get gold, even if that book was in a different location.
If it is the first time picking up the book, you will hear the dialog, even if you are playing with others.
I believe a single character can only pick up the lore books that would give experience once.
This makes a bit of sense to stop people from server hopping to level by picking up the lore books laying around towns.

"Appeals on Wheels" makes first stop in Union County for oral argument
Appellant challenges 20-year sentence for felony neglect of dependent
INDIANAPOLIS – The Court of Appeals of Indiana will hear oral argument in Kovats v. State at 1:30 p.m. Jan. 16 at Union County High School before an expected audience of about 200 students, judges and lawyers.
A panel of Judges John G. Baker, L. Mark Bailey and Paul D. Mathias will hear the case on appeal from Dearborn Superior Court. The court is conducting the oral argument by invitation of Union Circuit Court Judge Matthew R. Cox and school Principal Connie Rosenberger. This will be the court's first visit to Union County for oral argument.
Reporters may ask the court's permission to video or photograph the oral argument by faxing the Court Administrator (317-233-4627) at least 48 hours before the argument. All cameras must be tripod mounted and cannot use flash or strobe lighting. All recording is limited to the oral argument itself; no recording will be allowed a short Q/A between the judges and audience after the argument.
About this case: Christina M. Kovats was a home healthcare nurse hired to look after 89-year-old N.C., who had recently suffered from a stroke. On Oct. 28, 2011, Kovats was driving N.C. home from a weekly social event when she stopped to fuel her car. Kovats drove away without paying for gasoline and fled from a State Trooper who tried to stop her. After reaching speeds above 100 mph, Kovats lost control of her car. N.C. was seriously injured in the wreck, had to be cut from the car, suffered severe pain and died six weeks later. At the time of the incident, Kovats tested positive for oxymorphone, a drug more potent than morphine or heroin.
The State charged Kovats with Class B felony neglect of a dependent and three Class D felony offenses. After a four-day jury trial, Kovats was found guilty as charged. The trial court entered judgment of conviction on the jury verdicts, but at the sentencing hearing "merged" the Class D felony convictions into the Class B felony conviction and sentenced Kovats to 20 years in prison on the Class B felony only.
On appeal, Kovats claims that: (1) the trial court abused its discretion by considering as an aggravating factor that N.C. died six weeks after she sustained her injuries, (2) her 20-year sentence is inappropriate in light of the nature of the offense and the character of the offender, and (3) the trial court should have vacated the judgments of conviction entered on the merged counts.
The Court of Appeals hears oral arguments across Indiana to enable Hoosiers to observe the court in action and learn more about its indispensable role in Indiana government. This will be the court's 351st "Appeals on Wheels" since its 2000-2001 centennial, and the first in 2013.

Pelvic Tilt Builds Abdominal Strength
The pelvic tilt exercise is composed of subtle motions that build strength by isolating, tightening, and holding muscle positions. To do a pelvic tilt:
Lie on your back with your knees bent and your arms at your sides with your hands palm-side down.
Take several deep breaths, breathing in and out slowly.
Squeeze your buttocks together tightly and tighten your abdominal (stomach) muscles. This allows the small of your back to lower itself to the floor.
Hold for 5 to 15 seconds, then release the buttocks and abdominal muscles.
Repeat this exercise 5 times.

I'll pull something out of your ribcage...
Thanks, Heidi!
Disapproved of by Bill at 9:10 AM
When their eyes start glowing, start backing away and do not draw attention to yourself.
Vicky is suggesting human sacrifice, Inca style. She thinks it makes such good sense. Keep around just enough hoomins to provide pats and treats, and off to the stone altar with all the rest.
With the leash on, she deserves to be pulling things out of rib cages!
Wow are we glad that it wasn't us that put the leash on you!
i'm surprised her red glowing eyes havent melted the leash yet.
I have a bad feeling that Miss Vickie picked that harness and leash out herself, that way she can steer her hoomin wherever and whenever. Gulp.
I think maybe "Vickie" could be short for "Victory"? She looks like a Victory to me...
woooooooooow... Vickie is almost as disapproving as my bunny Darcy!
Vickie is a beautiful lady;
may she find a loving home!
Vickie deserves a loving home, and I hope she finds one soon, with a willing hoomin to cater for her every need and whim!
I think I've seen statues of critters like Vickie on the outside of gothic cathedrals. O_o
woah we don't even try putting leashes on the buns at the shelter where I work; the disapproval would be too much to bear!
Here's hoping Vicky doesn't disapprove of her new family...

Municipal Solid Waste
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW)more commonly known as trash or garbageconsists of everyday items we use and then throw away, such as product packaging, grass clippings, furniture, clothing, bottles, food scraps, newspapers, appliances, paint, and batteries. This comes from our homes, schools, hospitals, and businesses.
Each year EPA produces a report on MSW generation, recycling, and disposal. In 2010, Americans produced about 250 million tons of MSW, or about 4.3 pounds of waste per person per day.
EPA encourages practices that reduce the amount of waste needing to be disposed of, such as waste prevention, recycling, and composting.
- Source reduction, or waste prevention, is designing products to reduce the amount of waste that will later need to be thrown away and also to make the resulting waste less toxic.
- Recycling is the recovery of useful materials, such as paper, glass, plastic, and metals, from the trash to use to make new products, reducing the amount of new raw materials needed.
- Composting involves collecting organic waste, such as food scraps and yard trimmings, and storing it under conditions designed to help it break down naturally. This resulting compost can then be used as a natural fertilizer.
For waste that requires disposal it is important that it is done in ways that protect human health and the environment.
Landfills are engineered areas where waste is placed into the land. Landfills usually have liner systems and other safeguards to prevent polluting the groundwater. Combustion of MSW is done to reduce the amount of landfill space needed and to generate electricity
Currently, in the United States, 34 percent is recovered and recycled or composted, about 12 percent is burned at combustion facilities, and the remaining 54.3 percent is disposed of in landfills.
Resource Conservation
Recycling and composting prevented 85 million tons of material away from being disposed of 2010, up from 18 million tons in 1980. This prevented the release of approximately 186 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent into the air in 2010equivalent to taking 36 million cars off the road for a year. Learn more about how common wastes and materials, including food and yard wastes, paper, metals, and electronics, contribute to MSW generation and how they can be recycled.
Industrial Waste
Industrial or commercial waste is often a significant portion of solid waste, even in small cities and suburbs. Unlike residential waste, this waste is usually collected by private waste management companies. EPA has developed guidelines and tools to help municipalities better manage industrial waste. Some of the most common types of industrial waste include:
- Construction & Demolition Materials
- Special Wastes
- Medical Waste

Recipe by Stella
"Nothing beats a mug of hot cider on a cold winter day. This recipe is great as it calls for fresh apple cider and pure maple syrup. Start with only 6 strips each of the orange and lemon peel, and adjust to taste."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

6 cups
apple cider
1/4 cup
real maple syrup
cinnamon sticks
whole cloves
whole allspice berries
orange peel, cut into strips
lemon peel, cut into strips
This is PHENOMINAL! Just perfectly delicious. I just added one thing which is an old trick I recently learned from a New York State apple farmer who's family has been making hot cider for 150 or so years. Thinly slice and or chop up some McIntosh apples including the peel into small pieces and drop a small bunch of the apple pieces into each cup of hot cider just before serving. This makes a wonderful addition to this recipe, which I would say is the best hot cider I have ever tasted. Thanks so much for posting this great recipe. IT IS WONDERFUL!
This recipe is hit or miss, simply because people have different concepts of how the like their cider. This cider, for example, is extremely sweet. Though I didn't care for it, the people I made it for drank down multiple servings. I think next time I may down the syrup, up the spices, and perhaps just put full orange slices in the pot instead of the peel.

Everyone who is has tried this thinks it's wonderful! I made some in a crockpot at work and the citris turned it bitter after a few hours so be sure to remove the peels if you're letting it simmer for a long time.
Instead of going through all the trouble to buy cinnamon sticks, I used: 1 tsp. Cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. nutmeg, 1/4 tsp. cloves and put that in a bot and stirred until it was hot.
This was a big hit at my party! It was unseasonably warm that day, so many people let the cider cool off before they drank it, and it was still great. I took the advice of several reviewers. To cut down the sweetness I started with a "natural" pressed cider (read: No Sugar Added) and I used all the maple syrup called for, but I used a syrup that had less sugar in it ("light"). The fruit I just sliced up and let float (but removed it after about an hour), and I used ground cinnamon (1 tsp) and ground allspice (1/2 tsp). I will definitely be making this again!!
I put the spices and fruit peels in the ground tray of my coffee urn and brewed it that way. Worked great and was a big hit at my party.
OMG!!! Best cider I have ever served and I am already making plans to incorporate this into our holiday festivities! I didn't have the allspice berries but I assure you ~ this recipe is awesome and worth the little effort you have to invest in making it! Highly recommend - esspecially if you want to impress your loved ones this season! Thanks a TON Stella!
This was very good. I did change it a bit. I used a cup more juice, a little more syrup, and instead of peels I just sliced half and orange and a whole lemon and simmered them with everything about 20 minutes. The whole family loved it.

http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing...tionContent.10Helped by the iPhone, Verizon Wireless is pulling in more high-paying subscribers than it has in a year, and 15 times more than rival AT&T.
Verizon Communications Inc. on Thursday said it added 906,000 wireless subscribers on contract-based plans in the January to March period, more than double the number of a year ago.
The increase corresponds neatly with the half-million iPhones Verizon sold to new subscribers. Verizon started selling the iPhone on Feb. 10, ending AT&T's exclusive grip on the device in the U.S.
In total, Verizon said it had activated 2.2 million iPhones, with most of them going to customers upgrading from other Verizon phones.
Wall Street analysts had expected slightly more. Verizon shares fell $1.15, or 3.1 percent, to $36.63 in morning trading, retreating from a three-year high of $38.95 hit three weeks ago.
Verizon Chief Financial Officer Fran Shammo defended the iPhone sales performance on a conference call with analysts,
"We really weren't 100 percent out there with distribution until mid-March," he said.

Same Universe, Different Lenses: Science, Ethics, and Religion in Dialogue
This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
Philosopher Robert Bishop explores the Biblical doctrine of creation, which he describes as "perhaps one of the most helpful pieces of theology for thinking about science", and describes why the doctrine needs to be recovered from narrower, contemporary interpretations of creation.
Can science provide substantive insight into the question of God's existence? Isaac's paper examines three schools of thought regarding the possibility of detecting God's existence through science: Evolutionism, Creationism, and Intelligent Design.
Mark Noll, historian and author of The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind, enumerates 15 attitudes, assumptions, and convictions he considers to be most influential in inciting anti-intellectual sentiment among evangelical Christians.
NASA astronomer Jennifer Wiseman asserts that studying creation can show us the nature of God; science can inform us of what we need to do as stewards of God's creation; understanding the natural world gives us a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ; and science can give us a better understanding of ourselves. This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.
Many evangelicals believe that Young Earth Creationism is the only authentic, biblical way for Christians to understand origins, and that until the advent of Darwin's theory of evolution, it was the only view held by Christians. However, in this excerpt from Saving Darwin, Karl Giberson explains that Young Earth Creationism's origins are surprisingly recent.
The meaning of the "image of God" has been debated for centuries in the church. A common view is that the image of God refers to the human abilities that separate us from the animals. However, scientists have found that abilities like communication and rationality are also present in animals on a basic level. Plus, theologians do not see the image of God as human abilities. Some theologians see the image of God as our capacity for a relationship with God. Other theologians see it as our commission to represent God's kingdom on earth. Both of these theological positions are consistent with scientific evidence. Whether God created humanity through a miracle or through evolution, God gave us our spiritual capacities and calls us to bear his image.
(Updated June 25, 2012)
Many independent measurements have established that the Earth and the universe are billions of years old. Geologists have found annual layers in glaciers that can be counted back 740,000 years. Using the known rate of change in radio-active elements (radiometric dating), some Earth rocks have been shown to be billions of years old, while the oldest solar system rocks are dated at 4.6 billion years. Astronomers use the distance to galaxies and the speed of light to calculate that the light has been traveling for billions of years. The expansion of the universe gives an age for the universe as a whole: 13.7 billion years old.
(Updated April 16, 2012)
Fine-tuning refers to the surprising precision of nature's physical constants, and the beginning state of the Universe. To explain the present state of the universe, even the best scientific theories require that the physical constants of nature and the beginning state of the Universe have extremely precise values.
Given the stark difference between evolution and six-day creation, many people assume that Darwin's theory shook the foundations of the Christian faith. In truth, the literal six-day interpretation of Genesis 1-2 was not the only perspective held by Christians prior to modern science. St. Augustine (354-430), John Calvin (1509-1564), John Wesley (1703-1791), and others supported the idea of Accommodation. In the Accommodation view, Genesis 1-2 was written in a simple allegorical fashion to make it easy for people of that time to understand. In fact, Augustine suggested that the 6 days of Genesis 1 describe a single day of creation. St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) argued that God did not create things in their final state, but created them to have potential to develop as he intended. The views of these and other Christian leaders are consistent with God creating life by means of evolution.
Even before Darwin published The Origin of Species in 1859, many Christians had already accepted an old Earth. One of the first supporters of evolutionary science in America—Harvard biologist Asa Gray—was a devout Christian. Conservative theologian B. B. Warfield also accepted the science of evolution, and both he and Asa Gray rejected the idea that evolution leads to atheism. Even the authors of The Fundamentals, published between 1910 and 1915, accepted an old earth. It wasn't until a century after Darwin that a large number of evangelicals and fundamentalists began to accept the combination of flood geology and 6-day creation promoted by Seventh-day Adventists.
(Updated on July 10, 2012)
We at BioLogos believe that God used the process of evolution to create all the life on earth today. While we accept the science of evolution, we emphatically reject evolutionism. Evolutionism is the atheistic worldview that says life developed without God and without purpose. Instead, we agree with Christians who adhere to Intelligent Design and Creationism that the God of the Bible created the universe and all life. Christians disagree, however, on how God created. Young Earth Creationists believe that God created just 6,000 to 10,000 years ago and disagree with much of mainstream science. Supporters of Intelligent Design accept more of evolutionary science, but argue that some features of life are best explained by direct intervention by an intelligent agent rather than by God's regular way of working through natural processes. We at BioLogos agree with the modern scientific consensus on the age of the earth and evolutionary development of all species, seeing these as descriptions of how God created. The term BioLogos comes from the Greek words bios (life) and logos (word), referring to the opening of the Gospel of John. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made."

This story was updated at 11:19 a.m. April 30, 2013.
An off-duty Bladensburg police officer who crashed his cruiser into oncoming traffic Saturday in Pasadena committed suicide, according to Anne Arundel County police.
Anne Arundel police first said he died from crashing his vehicle, but an autopsy with the chief medical examiner determined the officer shot himself while driving, police said.
Brian Johnson, 38, of Pasadena was traveling east on Md. 100 near Catherine Avenue around 9 a.m. Saturday when he shot himself in the upper body and his vehicle crossed the median and struck another vehicle traveling west, police said.
Johnson was transported to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. The driver of the oncoming vehicle was treated on the scene for minor injuries and released, said Justin Mulcahy, an Anne Arundel police spokesman.
"This happened while he was the lone occupant of a moving vehicle," Mulcahy said. "Obviously, this is a very sensitive issue."
Mulcahy said Anne Arundel police do not typically publicize suicide information, but said the department had to clarify the officer's cause of death since initially reporting the crash.
He said Md. 100 was shut down for nearly six hours at the crash site Saturday morning.
Johnson was a nine-year veteran with the Bladensburg police department.
Bladensburg Police Chief Charles Owens said Johnson joined the department as a dispatcher and became a police officer one year later. He said Johnson was an officer first class and handled police investigations for the town. Johnson was heading home after working a night shift in Bladensburg when he took his own life, Owens said.
"Officer Johnson was a dedicated police officer. ... He became a public servant here with the police department and was dedicated to the Bladensburg community," said Owens, who noted that Johnson grew up in Bladensburg before getting married and moving to Pasadena. "He was a hard-working man."
Johnson was also a firefighter for the Bladensburg Volunteer Fire Department for nearly 20 years, according to town officials.
"It is with the deepest of regrets, through heavy hearts and many tears our family has lost a great fireman and [the] Bladensburg Police Dept. has lost a great Police Officer/Detective," a statement from the fire department said. "We shall forever remember the great times and the many things that you have taught to so many of our firefighters over the years."
Bladensburg Mayor Walter Lee James Jr. said the town "suffered the loss of a member of our family."
"He will be truly missed by us all. Officer Brian Johnson served honorably and with passion for the community he loved," he said.

Formula One will be down to 11 teams next year following HRT's demise, but the sport's ringmaster Bernie Ecclestone feels there is still one too many teams on the grid.
The grid has contained 24 cars since 2010 when F1 expanded and handed licences to Lotus Racing (Caterham), Virgin (Marussia) and Campos Meta (HRT).
It will be down to 22 cars in the 2013 season though as HRT have been omitted from next year's entry list for the World Championship after they failed to fork out the $500,000 free. According to one of the team's suppliers, the Spanish-based outfit had gone into liquidation.
Ecclestone has in the past been critical of the new entrants, saying after the 2010 season that "we need to get rid of a few of those cripples, they do nothing for us. They are an embarrassment."
A few years later and the F1 supremo got a third of his wish as HRT won't be part of F1 next year, but he still feels one more team need to go.
"I'd rather have 10 [teams]," he told Reuters. "I never wanted 12.
"It's just that 10 is easier to handle, for the promoters, for transport. We'd rather have 10... so long as we don't lose Ferrari."
When the 82-year-old was asked if he think HRT will be saved, he replied: "I wouldn't think that anyone would want to."

It's official. We've been called out for all those blurry Instagrams, fuzzy details, and subpar shots that some of us — not pointing fingers — have taken of the Fashion Week runways. We've been found guilty of getting too excited and Insta-sharing our favorite looks from the fall '14 collections, but, really, can you blame us? That said, clothing is not the only major victim of this crime. It's the shoes, too. And, without a doubt, trying to capture a pair of glittery cap-toe booties while your cell phone is shaking in your hand isn't going to do these designer gems justice.
And, so, consider the slides ahead a final stop-and-
smell-the-roses-feast-your-eyes moment at the pairs that really stole the spotlight this season. These are the soles from New York to Paris that kept our gaze fixed on the floor. They helped define the collections and inspired entire outfits we'll be wearing come fall. Ahead, see 20 flats, chunky heels, Mary Janes, and booties (so many good booties) that are pretty enough for a frame — but we'd prefer them on our feet, please.

After being traded to Florida two weeks ago, defenseman Brent Henley came back to Fort Wayne on Friday night as a member of the Everblades.
What was it like to come back tonight and play? Were you a little nervous, a little anxious?
Not at all. I'm happy to come back. I have a lot of great memories here, and a lot of great teammates I could say hello to. I'm here as an Everblade and to solidify our playoff position, and we did that.
You guys look like a playoff-ready team.
We're very well coached, everyone has bought into the system so everyone knows their job and how to do them. We had a lot of guys come in the last week and fit in right away, and that's a testament to the coaching staff and the rest of the team.
Tell me about your transition game, which seemed so fast.
That's how the coaches drew it up. Guys go to the right place and buy in, and it shows on the ice.
How much talking was going on out there?
Not a lot. I think the boys on the other side knew it was a very serious game for them, and it was a very serious game for us. I had some pleasantries last night, a couple of how are ya doins, but it was a really hard-fought game and was not a game for socializing.
How do you feel right now about things?
I feel spectacular. I've got my spark back, and I'm happy to be an Everblade. That's a really good feeling for me.
It looked like Schrocky was asking you to fight. What happened there?
Kaleigh asked me to fight, and I respected him for it, but that's not a good time to fight in a two-goal game. He's a tough guy, but if we leave him on the ice, there are some plays that went our way when he was out there. He's a hard-nosed kid, and I give him all the respect in the world for battling all of last year and all of this year, but you have to know when it's the right time, and that wasn't it.
