MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury Union High School officials usually frown upon folks tossing their trash on the campus lawn.
On Tuesday they encouraged the practice — and ironically, for the future betterment of the environment.

NEW HAVEN — An unlikely duo of recent Vermont transplants is teaming up to put on a first-of-its-kind event.
Christine Snell and Maura Lester are organizing the first annual New Haven Farm and Food Festival, a celebration of all the local food producers in the town. The festival will be held Oct. 20 at Tourterelle, the restaurant on Route 7 that Snell owns with her husband, Bill.
Snell and Lester came up with the idea back in July, when discussing how many other towns in Addison County have fall events, but New Haven does not.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury Union High School seniors Sophie McKeever-Parkes and Kate DaPolito took a break from classes last month to do some traveling. But it's not like they were on vacation; they were pitting their academic skills against fellow students from 28 countries at a spot almost halfway around the world.
FERRISBURGH — An $18,000 federal grant awarded to the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum will allow museum staff to offer the region's teachers free hands-on, on-the-water training, and the materials they need to in turn offer that same outdoor ecology education to their students over the next two years.

MONTPELIER — The four Addison Northwest Supervisory Union schools are among the 27 Vermont elementary, middle and high schools chosen to participate in field testing the Smarter Balanced Assessment System, a new computer-based educational testing program that will replace the state's current NECAP tests for Math and English Language Arts in the spring of 2015.
MIDDLEBURY — The man accused in a string of burglaries committed in Addison County earlier this year faced additional charges this past Wednesday in Vermont Superior Court's Criminal Division in Middlebury — and was again denied bail.
According to court documents, Raymond Ritchie, 37, of Addison was arraigned Sept. 25 for four more felony counts of burglary, each of which carry a potential life sentence because of his seven prior felony convictions, one from 2005 and six from 2001.
ADDISON COUNTY — The anticipated expiration of the U.S. farm bill on Tuesday could increase uncertainty for one of Addison County's major business sectors, as well as cast the future of food security programs used by local residents in doubt.
"Dairy farmers will be left without a safety net," Rep. Peter Welch, Vermont's lone congressman, said on Friday.
MIDDLEBURY — As Hospice Volunteer Services Director Priscilla Baker knows, death can be a tough subject to discuss — particularly when it involves one's own mortality or that of a loved one.
"We are a death-phobic society," she said on Thursday. "We want to help people find the right language and safety in the conversation."
BRANDON — The Compass Music and Arts Center offers a great opportunity to see a selection of work by one of the area's most beloved artists. Prindle Wissler was a lifelong artist and teacher who studied art at Skidmore College and Columbia University but was a lifetime learner, making discoveries and messes, as she would say, right up to the time of her death in 2011 at the age of 99.

Hi. I want to edit my theme to display a sidebar only when viewing a specific custom post type or a specific custom taxonomy. The theme author told me how to do it with a regular category. Like this...
global $cat;
if ( $cat == '63') $category_columns = '1 Column + Sidebar';
63 is the category id in this case. However, this does not work when I try to use the id from a custom taxonomy.
What should I replace $cat with to make this work?

Catalogue entry
Paul Klee 1879-1940
N05659 A Young Lady's Adventure 1922
Inscribed 'Klee' b.l.; also '1922/152' on mount b.l. and 'Abenteuer eines Fräuleins' b.r.
Watercolour on paper, 17 1/4 x 12 5/8 (43.5 x 32)
Purchased from Frau Lily Klee (Knapping Fund) 1946
Exh: Lent by the artist to the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen, Weimar, 1923-30; Paul Klee 1879-1940, National Gallery, London, December 1945-January 1946 (61); Paul Klee 1879-1940, Arts Council touring exhibition, 1946 (21, repr.)
Lit: Christian Geelhaar, Paul Klee and the Bauhaus (Bath 1973), p.54, repr. pl.23 in colour
Repr: Cahiers d'Art, 1945-6, p.33; Carola Giedion-Welcker, Paul Klee (London 1952), p.46; John Rothenstein, The Tate Gallery (London 1958), p.153 in colour
Will Grohmann commented on this work (letter of 14 June 1953): 'Klee had a very distant relation to women and saw in general their comic side. This mannequin-like female figure must represent a fashionable lady, who in spite of her striking elegance is more or less helpless in face of the oppressive spirits. The evil bird takes hold of her, while the arrow threatens to attack. It is probably also a "Temptation". It is amusing to recall that this watercolour was known at the Bauhaus as "The English Miss".'
Christian Geelhaar (loc. cit.), on the other hand, has tended to emphasise its erotic aspects, and has drawn attention to the significance of the arrow in various of Klee's works as a phallic symbol. 'Formally speaking this watercolour belongs to the group of colour gradations: into the olive-green grades are set red accents and these explain the nature of the maidenly adventure: in the area of tension between the red sex of the small preying animal below on the left and the young girl's lap a red shaft of lightning is discharged.'

Many thanks for this fantastic recipe. I took the liberty of adding some leftover cooked couscous, which gave it a real vegetarian loaf texture. Regards, Fiona
I'm amazed this good dish has been here all this time--and I'm the first to try it. I'm glad I did--an easy souffle-ish Greek dish--greatly enjoyed--loved the lemon which gave the dish Such freshness. Thanks, Bergy!

I already own a 10" tablet but wanted something that was a little more purse friendly. The Acer Iconia A1-810 is just the ticket. As this was a rather indulgent purchase, I did not want to spend a lot of money and as a result, I looked at a lot of tablets in the $100-$200 range. This is a great tablet for the money. * The plastic case has had numerous negative comments but I like it because it makes the device lighter weight and it looks very nice. The plastic case does not detract from its sturdiness. * The graphics are very good for the price range. * I found the battery life to be pretty good -- about 8-10 hours. * Some users reported that the touch screen is not sensitive enough; that was not my experience. I didn't notice any difference between the Acer and my Ausus TF300. * My only negative comment is on the sound. There is only one speaker and the volume is low.
However, the speaker is not a big deal for me, as I generally use external speakers. It pairs beautifully with bluetooth.
I bought this because of it being a quad core processor and it being so reasonable in price. I've read reviews on other sites about it and it scores well. My tablet was zippy, a clear screen (maybe could have gotten a bit brighter), and it ran well. I have a Nexus 7 (1st gen) also and it was as fast as that. I loved the screen size. It had good touch and was easy to use. The only problem I had was it started freezing, which then I'd have to turn it off and on again to fix it. It did not do this until about the 4th day, until then it worked great. I don't know if there would have been an update that would have fixed it or what? From other reviews I've read, that could have been the case. I ended up returning it because of the freezing and am deciding on getting another because of the great deal or going to something else.
I've spent a lot of time trying to find out how to load flash. I loaded firefox and tried to load the most recent flash player. But, when I try to go to the Weight Watchers full site, it continues to say that my device does not support flash. Bummer, otherwise, I thought it was fast, a good price, a good camera, only weighs about 13.8 oz (weighed it on my food scale#, fast processor, etc. Ya, it's a little plastic feeling, but what do you expect for $169, it's a quad core processor and 16 g memory and all around good specs. I'm going to return it though. I gave my ipad to my son because that doesn't support flash - so back to shopping. Oh, I was unable to get the gps to work without having a mifi along with in the car. Maybe it's operator error, but it just didn't seem to work. If flash and gps #without wifi) are important to you, keep shopping. If not, this is a great tablet for the price.
This is a great tablet you can go to the app store and download flash. The update from acer seems to have fixed the touch issue some people complained about. The gps works without a wi fi connection. The volume was not that great so I downloaded a speaker booster app that helped. I also purchased a wireless bluetooth speaker for when I 'm at home and it connected right away and works great. The pictures are ok but the video is a little grainy but none of it is a deal breaker for the price and all that it does. Nexflix movies play crystal clear and there are tons of apps on google play. In my opinion this does more than i pad mini. The battery life is excellent.
After purchasing the Samsung Galaxy Tab2, I saw the Acer with better specs for a better price. I returned my SGT2 and purchased the Acer A1-810 immediately. I fell in love instantly! The tab is beautiful with a white and smooth backing. What I love most about this though, is it's screen. It is bright and sharp, perfect for movies and loads very very very fast. The only flaw that I found was that it has a touch sensitivity issue :(
I bought the Acer from Walmart after trying two Samsungs that lasted for less than a week each. I had it a couple of days when my granddaughter came for the weekend. It lasted all day long and got a night time charge and then back at it again. I have to bathe it because someone likes peanut butter M&M's every now and then. We've been doing this about six weeks and the little Acer keeps ticking along. I find it useful and my grand daughter loves it. What more could you ask? Grandpa, Florida
Exactly what I was looking for at a good price......my last two computers were Acer and I had no problem with them. Has all the features and ease of use I wanted.
Where do I start. Well before the system update there was I strange transperacy on the side of the screen but after the update its fine. The performance of the this tablet is quite good its pretty fast. The screen is decent . Sure its not iPad mini clarity but its also not 299.00. Love the aspect ratio just like the iPad mini same size screen. The weight is fine contrary to what Manny have said. Its also a nice looking tablet. The touch screen is quit good for the price. Also like the fact that it has GPS and an HDMI out for movies.The WiFi works well and is pretty fast. The battery life is also pretty good. I also like the 5 finger wake feature. Also it has a quad quare CPU and a nice GPU the power vx sgx540 which is also very good for games. Latest update is 4.2.2 not bad. The speaker isn't a boom box but adiquite. It also has a front and rear camera for Skype etc. For the 149.00 with all the features it has a quad core CPU and decent GPU it destroyes the iPad mini is better than the tiny 7 inch nexus 7 and is a better value than the Samsung galaxy 3 plus it has an HDMI and a micro sd expansion slot which the nexus and iPad mini don't have. If your looking for a nice 8 inch tablet that's reasonably priced look no
Easy to use for first time user.
I was looking for a tab with gps and it does and I found out its not 3g or 4g connectable and it was my fault for not reading before buying,but other than that its ok...p.s. read before buying........
The auto focus is amazing. it has an awesome RAM. great CPU. The only thing I have had a problem with is Netflix. But, other than that it's a great tablet.
Does everything I need it to do!
I got this tablet from Walmart.com, and immediately after opening the box I found it defective, as if I purchased a piece of plastic or garbage for recycling. It seems like Walmart does not check out the items it sells. Very sorry to buy this, and it seems like I should completely avoid Walmart in the future.
its ok don't no how long it would last no flash no way returned it got me a apple mini apple always wins
Not a big spender, but needed a tablet for school, so I found this one. It has quad core processor which is really fast and 8hr battery life. This tablet really can't be beat.
Very easy tablet to use and battery last a long time.
This tablet good for price the display is not that good
I love it.....

Act of War: Direct Action PC
- Publisher: Atari
- Release Date: Mar 15, 2005
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Cheat Code CentralAct of War beautfiully bridges the gap between action and strategy and provides an all out assault of the senses thanks to the incredble level of visual detail, intuitive control and an aural symphony comprised of the sounds of destruction.
A stunning debut for what's obviously going to be a hell of a franchise.
AceGamezAct Of War: Direct Action heralds a massive return to top drawer form in RTS gaming. Slick, intelligent, sexy, beautiful and so, so engaging, I don't know whether to play it or take it out for a movie and a slap-up meal.
I actually found myself going back and replaying some of the scenarios, I enjoyed them that much.
What sets this game apart from the rest is the life-like and believable urban zones in which you are forced to set up your defence or attack strategies.
Computer Games MagazineJust deep enough to require tactical thought without bogging down in a ton of extraneous chores and options. [July 2005, p.60]
Pelit (Finland)A stunningly beautiful real-time strategy with a powerful campaign and lots of fabulous action, although the AI is a bit on the silly side. Still, heartily recommended. [Apr. 05]
A surprisingly engaging title. The story is full of twists and turns, and the way the story is threaded into the gameplay keeps you involved. The game isn't frustratingly difficult.
While it doesn't really innovate the genre any, the story for this game really pushes the players to continue playing so they can see what happens in the end.
A good, fast-paced strategy game that should appeal to traditional RTS lovers and more impatient gamers alike.
Units seem to be well balanced, combat is fun and made pretty interesting by dense city sections, and the visuals should keep anybody more than satisfied.
Here's a real-time strategy game with the soul of a sleek techno-thriller, stitched together with live action footage that, despite the acting and budgetary limitations, will remind you of the riveting television drama 24 at times.
The campaign is terrific on any difficulty level, and there's always multiplayer if you need go get your base building freak on. Act of War is a heck of a package that will please any self-respecting RTS enthusiast.
Its quick learning curve, matched with not having to deal with a tedious training mission lends this game towards the vets.
How the story develops is fantastic and keeps you playing through the game due to the cut scenes between missions and the mission driven storyline.
Takes the old-school RTS formula and enriches it in countless cool ways, using the lessons of the past decade to create a single-player campaign that's as valid and exciting as anything else in the genre. [PC Zone]
Playing this game with the right people will keep it going for ages, just as it has Command and Conquers.
Bottom line, if you can look past the technical gripes, Act of War: Direct Action is a very solid RTS game with a fantastic story.
Game InformerA good, solid RTS that brings some new things to the table in terms of gameplay, but I never really shook the feeling that I was still playing "Command & Conquer: Generals." [Apr 2005, p.138]
Eugen Systems took a lot of familiar concepts and gave them some new wrinkles. That's good, and I'd even characterize Act of War as an entertaining game, but it's just that those familiar concepts I mentioned are really familiar, and it just seemed like I had played Act of War before.
PC FormatDespite all the fireworks it's hard to suppress the feeling that Act of War is as shallow as a puddle. The objectives leave so little room for cunning that if you want to use your brain, you'll have to look elsewhere. [Apr 2005, p.100]
The strategic elements are in place for the most part, it has an interesting take on resource collecting, and the 3D engine makes the explosions nice to watch.
PC GamerEach of the game's three sides is incredibly well-balanced. [June 2005, p.60]
It looks stunning, isn't shy with its explosions and pyrotechnics, and keeps things moving at a cracking pace.
While Act of War doesn't transcend its genre, in terms of doing the pure "Red Alert" thing, there hasn't been anything as competent and thrilling in ages.
Act of War strikes an ideal balance between demanding and engaging. It's returned our faith to the modern real-time strategy game, and promises an impressive new franchise from Atari.
If you're an RTS vet who's played everything out there, you'll enjoy what Act of War: Direct Action has to offer. It introduces the small changes it needs to make it seem fresh, and Dale Brown's tech thriller story line keeps you entertained throughout.
A quality RTS because it combines modern-day combat with a cool story and top notch graphics. It provides a pretty decent challenge for veterans, but since it's very easy to play even novices will be able to hop in and achieve instant success.
The game is beatifully made even if we miss the possibility of smashing through a house with a tank, as one could in "Heroes: Soldiers of WWII."
Pelaaja (Finland)As a whole, Act of War doesn't deviate from the tried and true gameplay mechanics of it's genre, but it manages to deliver a solid, modern day warfare RTS-experience with nice visuals. [May 2005, p.86]
Its story is well told, its action is well presented, and though it is a very traditional real-time strategy title, it's a very good one.
You'll be impressed by the Act of War's destructible landscape, you'll laugh at the ridiculous acting and you'll yelp with a sick joy as your snipers pick off enemy commandos hidden in the undergrowth.
The A.I. is quite good, particularly at the tactical level, where you don't have to baby-sit an army.
The combat is generally tight, while the visuals and overall sound should keep the non-hardcore gamers glued to their monitors.
Act of War is polished, but it's not polished enough to hide the bad acting, disjointed and unrealistic storytelling, and most of all, the complete lack of inspiration or innovation.
While the entire game may be likened to a trip to Chili's rather than Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, you should come away from the table satisfyingly full nonetheless. Just make sure to bring a breath mint to get rid of the lingering effects of the cut scenes.
The only problem is Act of War follows too closely in the footsteps of prior best-selling titles.
In many ways, it's a by-the-numbers RTS, but a solid one, with a few imaginative mechanics built into it.
The single player campaign does a good job of gradually introducing new gameplay concepts and putting them to use. Unfortunately, the great gameplay is saddled with a ludicrous story (complete with overacted FMV cut scenes and techno-fascist iconography).
games(TM)Will it make you rethink how you see strategy games? Don't be daft. Will you enjoy playing it? Almost certainly. [May 2005, p.88]
However, it's most definitely a great step for the genre in terms of storytelling that will hopefully be properly mimicked and expanded by another developer or in a sequel.

Sep 22, 2011I played this RTS religiously for about a year before I moved on and found out about Dawn of War. Anybody who likes RTSs at all should tryI played this RTS religiously for about a year before I moved on and found out about Dawn of War. Anybody who likes RTSs at all should try this little-known gem from Atari. To put it simply, Act of War is in my opinion the perfect Command and Conquer game. It takes everything that made Command and Conquer great and dials it up to 11. This is strange because Act of War isn't actually an official Command and Conquer game. IMO, Act of War got exactly the right scale of combat. With DoW 2, you have small intimate squad battles. With Supreme Commander, you've got a ginormous scale with epic battles across entire peninsulas. Act of War had the perfect average of scale with good infantry action (even inside buildings!), while also allowing for devastating nuclear strikes and massed tank rushes. They even managed to pull off air combat in an innovative realistic fashion, which Relic later mimicked in CoH. Even Command and Conquer 3 came out later and tried to follow the magic and execution of Act of War, but I think they fell short. About the *only* complaint I can ever make about Act of War is that the infantry are individual units rather then squads, but I played it before DoW so that didn't bother me at the time.… Full Review »

Monitor - Samsung RZ2233
GPU - nVidia GeForce 9800GTX
nVidia GeForce 3D Vision glasses OS: Win7 x64
new drivers installed today
The monitor itself is working fine at 1600×1050@60Hz. Whenever the refresh rate is set to 120Hz for 3D vision to work the screen goes black and monitor displays a no signal/check cable message. At first I thought that the single-link DVI cable is insufficient for that, but even at 640×480 with 256 colours it does not work so it should not be the case. The same happens when running the setup wizard or anything that sets the refresh rate above 60Hz.
How can I find the source of it an how to remove it?
Solution: Dual link DVI cable helped.

[FOR HIRE] Public Administration, Bookkeeper, Budget Officer, Property Valuation Specialist (self.LAjobs)
submitted 3 years ago * by johnmd32
Hi all, I am an Economics Graduate with experience working as a Real Estate agent, volunteering on political campaigns, and for the past 3 years, in Local Government. I was first hired as a Budget Officer, processing all accounts payable and receivable, maintaining the general ledger, and preparing a $5M budget, and was promoted to the position of Municipal Assessor. As the Assessor I annually revalue all properties in Town (5,143 of them) worth roughly $2B to ensure that they are reflective of Full Market value. My position is kind of a catch-all in that I still work with the Comptroller on the budget and financial issues, I am the de facto IT guy, and I do the majority of research on implementing new municipal legislation and town policy. I am currently located in New York and attempting to relocate to LA around the Santa Monica/Venice Beach area. I can fly out out at my own expense if the possibility of a job interview presents itself.
I am seeking a position in Politics, property valuation, government, or general accounting/bookkeeping (I do not have a CPA). I am an upbeat, loyal and dedicated employee with excellent references, and I would love the opportunity to discuss potential California based employment with you. Thanks!

Hi, maybe someone knows what to do here. If I'd need to setup a wordpress blog with the IDNs Domain e.g. münzen.de, a so called Punycode. How do i have to configure the url in the WP installation? Do i have to use the Präfix "xn--url-psd.de"? And what about the internal links of the blog? Also with the Präfix "xn--"?
It would look like this than: xn--mnzen-psb.de (opens http://münzen.de) Is that the way the url is supposed to be entered in WP Settings? Or would i simply enter http://münzen.de

I've got an application I'd like to move to EC2. It will likely spend more than half the day completely dormant, so I'm trying to come up with a good solution for starting and stopping it as needed. It takes a few minutes to start up from nothing, so it would be nice if i could hibernate the OS for quicker resumes. I've seen a couple forum discussions on the topic of hibernation within EC2, but never anything conclusive. Has anyone found a working solution to this, or at least some resources that could help me out?
This has been discussed on the EC2 forums.
Highlights, direct from Amazon's mouth:
(or, in plain English -- Don't bother. It won't save you any money, and it probably won't work anyway)
I just hibernated an EBS based Windows AMI and then restarted it and it resumed fine. I would guess Linux works the same (as long as it stores the hibernate data to an EBS volume and then powers off the virtual machine).
(hibernation was disabled in the AMI, I turned it on using

PS: Take note of this: when an instance is stopped and later started again, all the instance stores are reset! Operating systems don't like disk content changing between hibernate and resume.

Posted on 11/26/2012 5:09:36 PM PST by SeekAndFind
Evangelical Protestants have become more devoted to their religious beliefs over the last three decades, even as Catholics have become less attached to their faith, new research finds.
The denominational differences come even as religious affiliations have decreased overall in America, with the number of people who claim no religious affiliation at all doubling from 7 percent in 1990 to 14 percent in 2000, said study researcher Philip Schwadel, a sociologist at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln.
Nevertheless, Schwadel said, these unaffiliated individuals seem to be dropping out of religious institutions that they were previously ambivalent about. People who feel strongly about their faith are as numerous as ever.
"The proportion of Americans who say they have a very strong religious affiliation over time is very stable," Schwadel told LiveScience.
Strength of faith
Schwadel based his findings on a major questionnaire called the General Social Survey, which has been administered to a cross-section of Americans yearly or every other year since 1974. Among the questions on this survey are several about religion, including one that asks how strongly affiliated people feel about their denomination. [8 Ways Religion Impacts Your Life]
By analyzing about 40,000 responses over the decades, Schwadel was able to track changes in how strongly tied people felt to their religion. He found that the total number of strongly affiliated people stayed basically steady around 37 percent, with a small, short-lived bump to 43 percent in 1984 and 1985.

Sadly, I can't say I'm surprised.

Are the mosques growing?

As humanists celebrate the reality that Christians are falling away from church affiliation, they also assumed they were falling away from their faith. That's a lie.
The wheat separating from the chaff...It was foretold.
Thats why the Catholic bishops need to stop pandering to liberal minority groups and the government and just take a stand. They're afraid it will cause a loss in membership, but the truth is, if these people don't represent or live Catholic values, why retain them anyway and let them taint the title?
They need to just accept that its going to happen, no matter what they do, because it was foretold in the Bible.
The wheat are separating from the chaff. The goats from the sheep. The lukewarm from the fervent. Just pray and roll with it.
South and central Americans immigrants identify themselves as Catholics culturally, but they also come from a tradition of marxist hatred of their church given Catholic history. American-American catholics don't have a history of church abuse of power like the foreigners do because of the constitution.
I am not surprised that a larger percentage of Catholics are faithless and rebellous in surveys. That will increase as people from Central and South American roots increases. They came to America from oppressive foreign lands in which the Catholic church played a dark part.
With some segments of the church, you almost have to forget about converting people (at least into that segment of the church)...lest the newbies coming onboard there become like the rest and become worldly like them!
Jesus said the last days before His return would be similar to the days of Noah. Noah and his family were the only believers left on a very populated planet in his time. As we approach the last day, it would stand to reason there will be less and less TRUE BELIEVERS. Many will one day say to Him, "Lord, Lord," and He will say to them in response, "Depart from Me, I never knew you."
Check out the heavily Roman Catholic area on Northwest Illinois and tri-State area. The same demographic as the heavily populated Roman Catholic Northeast.
To rain on your parade a little, we were talking about an INCREASE in unfaithful Catholics given a survey on the last election. Did your German relatives just move in and increase the number of humanist voters we were discussing from the survey?
I think they were in the base from past years' data and not part of the increase we were discussing in this thread concerning this survey data. As far as I know, German Catholic socialists are not flocking here in numbers sufficiently to increase the number of humanist voters in the American Catholic population under discussion here. However, humanist catholics from Central and South America are.
That's okay. Your knee jerk race baiting is understandable. It is hard to keep track of discussions invloving math when you are nursing skin color fears and shame.
One thing about it, there are upward of 30,000 choices for Christian non-Catholics to drop in on, when things don't go their way. Catholics are split in two, between liberals who demand that the Church swing with the times, and the other half who know the Church and her tenets are timeless, based on natural law and principles of the Creator and Christ Jesus.
Catholics are unhappy with the other half of Catholics, but both halves intend to stay and fight for their vision of the Church, or else they're gone by now. Both halves know the Church is just that— the Church. The Catholic Church, from which all other formations scattered, left, departed, hence divided and divided infinitum exponentially, on and on, always finding a home somewhere for their own opinion or their own interpretation of the faith.
By and large Catholics won't do that, they may leave the Church but its not so much to become something else.
There was an increase in humanist Catholic voters in this survey based on this survey under discussion.
There was not an increase in white humanist Catholic base (the number of white catholics taking the survey) - whites are a constant or diminishing base in this Nation.
Given white humanist catholics are not breeding at a large rate or flooding over the borders, the increase was logically from immigration from Central and South America where the Catholic base population increased.
That would probably be those Catholics from South and Central America. They have a long history of faith mixed with power stuggles with the Church so I am not surprised to see them do the opposite of what the church tells them to do when it comes to power.
I'm an Evangelical, and we have a strong growing church.
We also have a Catholic church in town. I have to say, it is relatively robust as well, and also growing.
We are please that many of their women attend our regular Bible Studies. When we asked how they know about us, one lady told us their priest has been sending them over for years. He tells the ladies we have great Bible studies, and they should take advantage of them.
I don't disagree with you on your points. The border crossing Catholics do come from socialistic and Marxist states. From childhood they may have seen the Church used to advance those philosophies, or at least to stay relevant or at least survive, the Church may have been mixed with the governance of the state. I am hearing in a few places here and there, valid or not, however, that these Catholics from south of the border defy the usual assumptions, and are now as much protestant or nothing at all as they are Catholic.
The Moral Majority.
Also the Latinos have been coming illegally in the US for decades. Like I said, the shift is internal due to politics and culture sanctioning the malignant behavior(s).
I'm sooo tired. I'll talk to you about it later. : )
I'm hitting the sack.
It is astounding to me that the Catholic Church has no "Sunday School" apparatus, or Bible Studies of their own. Study is left aside to the individual Catholic, and the parish otherwise is confined to a strictly 55 minute Holy Mass, per week. That's not quite four hours a month!
Thanks be to God for EWTN TV & RADIO, which single handedly brought me into the Church and kept me zealous for her. I would be illiterate but for this programming, and it's the protestant converts behind their best programs, offering spectacular adult catechesis and materials.
But yes Catholics are starving otherwise.
Get some rest. You know where to find us. Sleep tight.
My Catholic mother in law is shocked we read the Bible to my three year old, and have her do memory work.
I am a Missouri Synod Lutheran. I honestly don't know when I started Sunday School as a kid, I was that young. My bride said she didn't have any religious education outside the home till third or fourth grade.
Seems to me that is very odd in today's culture. You will loose the kids by then.
Catholics would like to think so, anyway. There's a dirty little secret that Catholics choose to ignore about that 30,000 number - the very same source that Catholics cite to claim "30,000 choices" also says that there are nearly 3,000 divisions within Catholicism.
Which, quite frankly, explains a lot of things.
I am very proud of your family. You have probably heard this, as a Lutheran, but Catholics if they attend Holy Mass daily, will hear pretty much the entire Bible every three years. Coupled with the Readings for each day, of course, is the homily, wherein the Sacred Scripture Reading is expounded upon. IF, you have a priest gifted with faith who is good at delivering a teaching homily.
So, Catholics should know their scripture when they hear it, and even know of it in its complete and particular contextual form, inclusive of its total mentions and references throughout the Bible, but not usually in the way of chapter and verse, which is quite helpful.
Children are most capable and generally undertaught. You respect their capabilities and feed them. That is ever so wonderful.
I can agree with the number of divisions among Catholic opinion. Like noses, we each have one. But though division among Catholics are lamentable they generally will not leave behind the Sacrament of Holy Orders (the priesthood) who brings to them daily, Jesus in the Eucharistic, to join another Christian expression who lack both, or either. That was more my point, and I thought maybe the article could not measure Catholic dis-satisfactions the same way as protestants. In other words Catholics may leave the Church, due to some dis-satisfaction, but not the faith, nor very often to become Protestant.
For instance, Barrett's World Christian Encyclopedia lists every Catholic diocese as a separate denomination (the Catholic Church worldwide has 2,700+ dioceses) and likewise counts the sui iuris Churches as separate denominations (Melkite, Maronite, Chaldean, Coptic, etc.)
Catholics will find this wrong-headed, since all these dioceses, and all these sui iuris churches, have the same faith and morals, the same Apostolic Succession, the samew Liturgy (although different rites), the same Sacraments, and are in communion with the Pope, the successor of Peter: which is to say, they are "one" ("holy," "Catholic," and "apostolic") Church.
This is not just special pleading for the Catholics, as the same problem applies to non-Catholic Christians. All the many non-denoms and Bible Fellowships and so forth with the same faith & morals get listed as separate denominations, independent Baptists, Congregational churches in loose federations, etc.
And of course different church groups have different polities, different ecclesiasical forms of government, which makes it all very hard to compare and, especially, to compute.
Trouble with hearing the readings is that most people don't really pay attention. Now, back in the day most people couldn't read so it made sense to have the readings. But there needs to be a deeper formation.
My #1 job is to help get my family to heaven.
"Pretty much the entire Bible"? Not even close. Try 27.5% of the entire Bible.
Only arguably are you correct. You realize, don't you, that of course we have seven more Books than other expressions of "church", as they were dropped from Sacred Scripture, but three years of daily reading in Holy Mass yields, as I said, "pretty much the entire Bible", unless nits are in need of being picked.
Sorry, I lost my ping to you. To #34.
Those must be some pretty sizable books to make up for the missing 75% :)
....three years of daily reading in Holy Mass yields, as I said, pretty much the entire Bible, unless nits are in need of being picked.
What color is the sky in a world where 75% is considered a "nit"?
by Sara "I am not surprised that a larger percentage of Catholics are faithless and rebellous in surveys. That will increase as people from Central and South American roots increases. They came to America from oppressive foreign lands in which the Catholic church played a dark part."
You may want to clear up your understanding of Catholic history in Mexico and South and Central America in general. A good book would be "Blood Drenched Alters" by Kelly and read up on the Chritiada covered in a recent movie called "For the Greater Glory"
"It is astounding to me that the Catholic Church has no Sunday School apparatus, or Bible Studies of their own."
My parish does.

The 27-year-old has been a free agent since he left MLS side Portland Timbers towards the end of last year.
The defender, who left Ibrox in 2010 after breaking through as a youngster, has signed a two-year deal.
However, Smith will only be able to feature as a trialist before September 1.
Rangers are banned from registering players until after the closure of the summer transfer window following the deal that was struck with the Scottish Football Association last summer that allowed them to reform as a newco after the old Rangers were liquidated.
But the player will join up with his new team-mates for pre-season training and could play in as many as three Irn-Bru Second Division fixtures as a trialist.
Smith has already met up with many of the Light Blues squad after Rangers boss Ally McCoist granted him use of the Murray Park training facilities following his return from the US.
The Scotland B international joins goalkeeper Cammy Bell, midfielders Nicky Law and Arnola Peralta and forwards Jon Daly and Nicky Clark in agreeing moves to the Glasgow giants this summer.
He came through the youth ranks at the Third Division champions and made his professional debut back in November 2004 in a 3-2 win over Hearts.
He went on to make 64 competitive starts for the club in total but had his progress curtailed by a long-standing pelvic problem. Bellshill-born defender Smith eventually moved on to Norwich City in 2010 before turning out for Aberdeen and Preston North End.

Its usually pretty easy to find a spot at the bottom of the hill until about 9 o'clock when the commuters get here.
I do not drive a car so I do not need to park. Some of my friends say that it is annoying that upper classmen and transfers get assigned spots.
Because it is a small campus, there aren't many parking options available. People who live in the dorms generally have dorm-specific parking, and there are several lots for commuters and visitors, but the lots are small and tend to fill up quickly. If you have class any time after 9, you'll most likely have to park at the top of the hill at the gym.
There is parking at each of the dorms as well as the gym and by the chapel and dining hall but there isn't much parking for the dorms and if there are no spaces you have to go to overflow parking which is either up the hill or on the other side of campus which can be a pain but there is enough parking for everyone even though it might be a little ways away from where you actually want to be.
Finding a parking space is no hassle which is great!

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - A Mobile County judge has rejected some
anti-gay prospective jurors who declared they do not approve of the
lifestyle of the cross-dressing defendant.
At least three potential jurors were sent home Monday after
expressing their disdain or outright disgust.
The court then seated 14 jurors to hear the murder charge
against 30-year-old female impersonator John Frederick Burton, who
is accused of killing 23-year-old Francisco Carlos Randolph.
Prosecutors argued that Burton was mad at Randolph for borrowing
his car without permission and plunged a pair of scissors into
Randolph's chest, penetrating his heart.
Defense attorneys said a drunken Randolph ran into the scissors being held by Burton during an argument.

NBA draft prospect profile: UC Santa Barbara C/PF Alan Williams
|06.09.15 at 12:54 pm ET
As part of WEEI.com's coverage of the 2015 NBA draft, here is one in a series of profiles of prospective picks. The Celtics own two picks in each of the two rounds (16, 28, 33 and 45 overall).
Position: Center/power forward
School: UC Santa Barbara
Age: 22
Height: 6-foot-8
Weight: 260 pounds
Wingspan: 7-foot-1.75
Key 2014-15 stats: 17.3 points, 11.8 rebounds, 1.8 blocks
Scouting report: Williams led the nation in rebounding the past two seasons and is Santa Barbara's all-time top rebounder. Offensively, he's known for his good hands and post-up ability. Although he worked on adding a jumper to his game this season, Williams makes a living in the paint, backing his defender into the post before shooting from close range. Williams, who missed seven games as a senior with a shoulder injury. is expected to be drafted late in the second round by a team willing to take a chance on a monster rebounder who lacks size and athleticism.
Williams is confident his rebounding prowess will continue in the NBA. "I think rebounding is a statistic, and it's been proven, that translates well to the next level," he told the Arizona Republic. "I think my ability to go out and get rebounds outside of my zone and outside of my area is huge. And also to take on the challenge of taking a great defensive rebounder out of their game by putting a body on them and boxing them out and kind of limiting what they do is something I'll be able to do at the next level."
Notes: Williams was the Big West Player of the Year in 2014 after averaging 21.3 points, 11.5 rebounds and 2.4 blocks. He was named All-Big West first team the past two seasons. Williams' father is an elected judge in Phoenix, and his mother is the chief of police in Oxnard, California. In his bio on the Santa Barbara website, Williams lists the Celtics as his favorite NBA team.

Report: Celtics losing interest in Kevin Love
|06.09.15 at 10:59 am ET
While the Celtics may still have some interest in Kevin Love, their affection for him has waned since last offseason, according to the Boston Herald's Steve Bulpett.
Love has stated recently that he intends to return to the Cavs, but he can still hit free agency next month. Were Love to test the market, the Celtics are anticipated to be among the list of suitors. However, according to Bulpett: "The Celtics will very likely wind up an afterthought as Love examines his options in the next two months."
Celtics' president of basketball operations Danny Ainge was reportedly enamored with Love last offseason, wanting to pair the All-Star power forward with now-departed point guard Rajon Rondo. Last offseason, Ainge reportedly offered the Timberwolves a deal for Love, yet they were not amused by the offer. Instead, the Celtics went on to make the playoffs without Rondo and Love.
Based on reports, Love has raised some red flags due to persistent health issues. With weak knees and back issues, many in the NBA do not expect his career to last as long as the average player.
"I think he wants to be in a good situation," one league exec from outside the area told Bullpett. "But I also think he's concerned about his health, so he wants to get a good long-term contract. I still think he stays in Cleveland."
NBA draft prospect profile: Wisconsin SF Sam Dekker
|06.08.15 at 5:13 pm ET
As part of WEEI.com's coverage of the 2015 NBA draft, here is one in a series of profiles of prospective picks. The Celtics own two picks in each of the two rounds (16, 28, 33 and 45 overall).
Position: Small forward
School: Wisconsin
Height: 6-foot-9
Weight: 230 pounds
Age: 21
Wingspan: 6-foot-11.5
Key 2014-15 stats: 13.9 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists, .331 3-point percentage
Scouting report: Dekker, who is forgoing his final season of eligibility, has an NBA-ready body. He has the physical tools and size necessary to succeed at the next level. He is very versatile and effective on both ends of the floor. He is both an effective spot-up shooter and a threat to score inside. He's very long and big for an NBA small forward, but is too quick to be defended by many power forwards, so he could create some matchup problems at the next level. He compares favorably to Utah's Gordon Hayward.
Dekker has proven his ability to perform at a high level in big games and big moments, leading the Badgers in field goal percentage and 3-point percentage during their run to the NCAA title game and hitting multiple big-time 3's in the process. However, one NBA scout has tempered expectations, telling NBA.com, "I view him as a Kyle Singler type, a role player. He'll rebound and he's tough and he'll give you just enough offense not to be a liability. It's dangerous to base an evaluation on how a kid played at the end of the season."
Dekker is a good but not elite athlete and shooter and sometimes struggles to create offense off the dribble. He is certainly versatile but not particularly great in any one area. He is an average free throw shooter, hitting 69 percent this past season and for his career. Playing alongside consensus All-American Frank Kaminsky, Dekker never had to shoulder a large load as a featured scorer.
Notes: Dekker was named the NCAA Tournament West Regional's most outstanding player after leading the Badgers to the Final Four. In the Final Four, Dekker scored 16 points and shot 6-of-9 from the field as Wisconsin toppled undefeated Kentucky. His tournament performance helped his draft stock and put him firmly onto the national radar. Some mock drafts, including NBA.com, predict that Dekker will be picked by the Celtics at No. 16, although many other mocks have him going higher than that.

NBA draft prospect profile: Oregon G Joseph Young
|06.08.15 at 12:39 pm ET
As part of WEEI.com's coverage of the 2015 NBA draft, here is one in a series of profiles of prospective picks. The Celtics own two picks in each of the two rounds (16, 28, 33 and 45 overall).
Position: Point guard/shooting guard
School: Oregon
Age: 22 (turns 23 on June 27)
Height: 6-foot-2
Weight: 182 pounds
Wingspan: 6-foot-5
Key 2014-15 stats: 20.7 points, 3.8 assists, 92.5 free throw percentage
Scouting report: Young, who has earned comparisons to current Celtics guard Isaiah Thomas, is a premier scorer, leading the Pac-12 at 20.7 points per game and tying the school record for most points in a single season (745). He's known as a great jump shooter who runs the pick and roll like a pro. He took on additional point guard responsibilities his senior season and finished sixth in the conference in assists (3.8) while recording a 1.58 assist-to-turnover ratio, although he's still viewed as more of a natural shooting guard. He can get to the basket, and when fouled he's nearly automatic from the line — ranking second in the nation last season in free throw percentage (92.5). Young came up big in big games, registering 27 in Oregon's NCAA Tournament opener against Oklahoma State and then 30 in a loss to eventual national finalist Wisconsin.
The biggest question mark for Young is his defense, especially with him being on the smaller side. Heading into last month's NBA combine, he used 2015 NBA MVP Stephen Curry as an example of what someone his size can accomplish. "Steph Curry is my idol and I've seen what he does to succeed," Young told The Oregonian. "People keep saying, 'He's not ready. He's not big enough. He's undersized. Can he play the point?' " Young averaged 13 points, three rebounds and two assists in two combine games, while recording a 34.5-inch standing vertical and 40.5-inch max vertical. He is expected to be drafted in the latter half of the second round.
Notes: Young is the son of Michael Young, whom the Celtics drafted out of the University of Houston in the first round in 1984 (24th overall), although he never played a game for Boston and appeared in just 49 NBA games with three teams. Young originally committed to Providence College, then decided to follow in his father's footsteps and play at Houston. After two years he transferred to Oregon and scored 1,388 points in two seasons with the Ducks, the highest two-year total in school history. Young set the Pac-12 record for career free throw percentage at .900 (279-of-310). As a senior he was named Pac-12 Player of the Year and was an Associated Press All-America honorable mention.

Cady Lalanne would love to channel his inner Kevin Garnett in a Celtics uniform
|06.03.15 at 4:00 pm ET
WALTHAM — Cady Lalanne has his sights set high.
The 6-foot-8 big man from UMass with a 7-foot-5 wingspan would love to model his game after another big man who made quite the impression during his time with the Celtics.
"Since I started playing basketball in ninth grade, KG has been a player I love to watch," Lalanne said of Kevin Garnett after his pre-draft workout Wednesday with the Celtics. "I remember I used to always go to the park and try his fadeaway that he had when he was with the Timberwolves. When he came here and won a championship, I was really excited. Even right now, I still watch him and try to learn from him."
What makes him think he can play like KG?
"Rebound the ball and play defense, that's the strong [parts] right now," Lalanne said. "I still have a lot to work on. I'm just ready to work. I would love to [emulate him]. He can knock the 15-foot jump shot, hit the three here and there and you can always count on him on defense to get stops.
"I can knock down the 15 to 17-foot jump shot, make threes and give a full effort on defense and offense and do everything I can to help the team win."
While he's got a long way to go to match KG's accomplishments, he's already traveled quite the road to get where he's in position to dream the dream.
He was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. He went to Oak Ridge High School in Orlando, Fla. And he had to overcome not getting into his first choice (University of Georgia) because of academic ineligibility. But that didn't stop him.
"Originally, it's because I didn't qualify. I signed with the University of Georgia and I didn't qualify to go there. UMass and the whole A-10 is a "Prop 48" program. Coach [Derek] Kellogg started recruiting me so me and my head coach gave him a call. I didn't get accepted to Georgia. The NCAA wouldn't let me go to any schools except for the A-10 or the JUCOs. He told me he'd love to have me here so I came here, sat out the first year and was able to play the following year."
An absolute mockery of a 2015 NBA mock draft v1.0
|06.03.15 at 3:12 pm ET
I'm not sure whether mock drafts got their name from the false premise that anyone could accurately mock what the front offices of all 30 NBA franchises will do come June 25 or the reality that everyone who projects to know such matters ultimately makes a mockery of themselves. It's probably a hybrid of the two, but they sure are fun, so without further ado Green Street presents the first of four mock drafts leading up to the real thing in Chicago later this month.
Keep in mind Celtics president Danny Ainge owns two first-round picks in this year's draft — his own No. 16 selection and the Clippers' No. 28 pick he received in exchange for letting Doc Rivers out of his contract — and predicting whether The Wolf of Causeway Street will stand pat, trade up or swap out of the draft is like guessing which ridiculous name Ron Artest will use next. Impossible.
1. Minnesota Timberwolves: Kentucky freshman PF/C Karl Towns. Remarkably, the Timberwolves will feature the three most recent No. 1 overall picks next season. Unfortunately, one of them is Anthony Bennett. But with Andrew Wiggins and Towns — two tremendously gifted athletes — Minnesota moves on from the Kevin Love era rather quickly.
2. Los Angeles Lakers: Duke freshman center Jahlil Okafor. As much fun as it was to see the Lakers field a D-League lineup this past season, it would have been more enjoyable had they fallen out of the top five and been forced to send their pick to Philadelphia. Instead, they land Okafor, a 6-foot-11 offensive juggernaut who would've looked awful good in green.
3. Philadelphia 76ers: Duke freshman small forward Justise Winslow. With Nerlens Noel, Joel Embiid and Dario Saric available to fill the 4 and 5 spots for the next decade, Winslow provides the Sixers with a dynamic wing scorer of the future as well. Well, until GM Sam Hinkie decides to trade them all away for future draft picks and cap space, at least.
Olivier Hanlan has sights set on proving himself a 'true point' in NBA, maybe in Boston
|06.03.15 at 10:32 am ET
WALTHAM — Can Olivier Hanlan help the Celtics?
The Celtics would certainly seem to have more than enough data and research at their disposal after watching him for the last three seasons at Boston College and right in their own practice facility.
The point guard sensation broke onto the national scene with a 41-point outburst against Georgia Tech in the 2013 ACC tournament, setting a new conference tournament record for freshman scoring in the process. That summer Hanlan worked out at the Celtics' training facility in Waltham, playing occasional pickup games with the likes of Jared Sullinger and Rajon Rondo.
Tuesday's workout was like going back to the future for the 6-foot-4 guard, who led the ACC in scoring this past season at 19.5 PPG.
"It's definitely fun being back here," Hanlan said. "I'm kind of used to this place compared to other places."
In three years at Boston College, Hanlan showed an explosive ability to get to the basket and score from everywhere on the court. It's that kind of ability from the point guard position that could convince the Celtics to take a chance on the 22-year-old.
Celtics coach Brad Stevens acknowledged that acquiring a guard who can score and knock down the open jumper is high on their priority list heading into the June 25 draft in Brooklyn.
Hanlan not only has New England roots but a Canadian connection that could come in handy on the Celtics as he, like Kelly Olynyk were born in Canada. Hanlan transferred from his home in Quebec to the basketball powerhouse New Hampton School in New Hampton New Hampshire for his junior and senior years of high school.
He was recruited by Boston College and fell into a great situation for the last three years.
"I've built a lot of relationships [in Boston], so obviously it would be a dream come true," Hanlan said. "But you can't really be picky with these types of things."

If your child sits inside a classroom with 20 to 40 other children every single day, do you think that one teacher can successfully meet the individual learning needs of each student? How will he or she compete for the teacher's attention? How will the teacher impart abstract ideas like wisdom and worth—concepts that cannot be taught in an hour—when she rarely has the opportunity to spend ample time with each of her pupils? These are just some of the challenges that homeschooling parents and advocates present to our traditional education system.
Debra Bell, a recognized homeschooling advocate from the US and best-selling author of award-winning books on homeschooling, was the keynote speaker in this year's Homeschooling Association of the Philippine Islands (HAPI) Conference. Bell homeschooled her four children, all of whom have now found success in their chosen careers and are happily raising their own families. She believes that as children grow, they become disengaged from learning. Homeschooling will help instill in children a genuine love for learning. This is important because, according to Bell, "You can't teach anyone anything, you can only motivate him to engage."

BATTLE CREEK, Mich. - The thing could have turned West Texas A&M's day into a major wreck.
Instead, the Lady Buffs rolled past their slow start like a car over a speed bump - no, big deal - continuing down their road toward a 1999 Division II women's volleyball crown.
West Texas A&M, making a bid for an unprecedented fourth national title in the same decade, overcame jitters, injury and a rare first game loss in beating Lock Haven (Pa.) University 10-15, 15-8, 15-9, 15-11 Thursday in a national tournament quarterfinal match before 175 fans at Kellogg Arena.
Lady Buffs first-year coach Tony Graystone, his team improving to 36-1, put it best.
"We showed how young we were that first game," Graystone said. "Maybe a little bit surprised, maybe a little timid, but definitely a little scared. This was not our cleanest match of the year."
Although WT owns national titles in 1990, 1991 and 1997, Graystone knew nerves would be an issue Thursday as four true freshman were in the WT rotation.
But when 6-3 junior Jenny Catano of Dumas had an unexpected knee problem before the match started and was unable to jump, Graystone saw the emotional status of his team put to the test.
No teammate enjoys - or can easily handle - seeing one of the top forces on their team in near tears just before the biggest match of a long season.
"Just the look on (Jenny's) face," said senior middle blocker Megan Jacobson, "and you knew it was a big deal."
On the other hand, Lock Haven was a program started in 1991 with an 0-17 record. The Haven was making its second appearance in the Elite Eight and seeking respect against the favored Lady Buffs.
"Our game plan was just to have fun and lay it out on the court," said junior outside hitter Jillian Klinzing, who had six kills. "We knew they were a good team and they were going to compete. But we were going to compete right back with them."
Behind a quick set offense led by 5-8 outside hitter Sarah Schall, The Haven put shaky West Texas in a hole by winning the first game 15-10.
"We couldn't get the ball out of Sarah Schall's hands," Graystone said. "She's a ball control genius out there. We weren't serving very aggressive and they pretty much had a free option pass every time. It's tough to defend an offense when they have all the options there.
"Gradually, we found some rotations we could score with and things became a little easier for us."
Seeing WT lose the first game of a match is like seeing the seasons of the year change. In 37 matches, this was only the third time WT saw 0-1.
"We were a little rattled right before the game when Jenny Catano came up with a little bit of a knee problem." Graystone said. "We got out there and Lock Haven played a great, great match overall. They came out strong and very aggressive. They should be very proud of their effort. They showed themselves well."
The Lady Buffs, that powerhouse team able to sweep 31 of their opponents in 1999, came to life.
With 6-1 senior Sarah Butler of Amarillo High helping her teammates calm down with constant encouragement, and then hammering away at shorter Lock Haven like the two-time national player of the year she is, WT soon had things under control against the scrappy Lady Eagles.
"It was kind of scary there at first with the first game going to them," Butler said. "But once we got our feet wet, and got our big toe out there across that line, we were OK."
WT's ability to block at the net, along with the emergence of Catano late in the match after her injury became tolerable, provided 15-8, 15-9 and 15-11 wins over the final three games.
Lock Haven gave nothing easy to WT. But the Lady Buffs were able to block the Lady Eagles quick-set offense after game one, then used kills from Butler, the calmed-down Amarillo High freshman Shannon Stroud, along with Catano to take over.
Butler produced a game-high 25 kills, while Stroud added 18 kills and Catano produced nine kills. Catano, playing in obvious pain and playing courageously, added three solo blocks and four assisted blocks.
Catano was at her best in game four when Lock Haven built a 10-4 lead. WT answered the pressure situation with nine unanswered points, two of the points terrific momentum-boosting plays by Catano.
"Jenny sets the tone behind everything we do behind that block," Graystone said. "She had seven blocks in this match and I thought she was tremendous."
Also adding to WT's muscle at the net was Jacobson who produced a game-high six block assists.
"Our block was always strong, I think that was a big factor," Graystone said.
Schall led Lock Haven with 20 kills, while setter Shana Fessette ran the offense - especially early - with strong passing, finishing with 58 assists.
Lock Haven coach Tom Justice, the architect of the Lady Eagles program from day one in 1991, said his team lost its edge but gained a little something.
"Our passing fell off after game one," Justice said. "It wasn't them so much as it was us. I'm not saying West Texas isn't a great team. Because West Texas is a great game. The only thing I have been concerned with my team this year is to maintain that razor's edge for a long period time. We don't have a 6-3 outside hitter. We were out to get respect. This is not a once in a lifetime trip for us. People better get used to seeing us."
West Texas plays again at 5 this evening when they meet the University of Tampa in one of the two semifinals.
Graystone said he expects to see a more relaxed team on the scene today, but knows more than nervousness has to change against Tampa (31-4).
"We are going to have to play our best to beat Tampa, there is no question," Graystone said. "You can't play anything less than your A game, anymore. We know that. This will be a test for us."

Church of England Accused of Double Standards Over Low Wages
The Church of England was accused of double standards on Feb. 23 for offering jobs in cathedrals at lower wages than those it has called on other British employers to pay their workers.
Under the banner headline "Wages of Sin," the Sun reported that it had found several advertisements for jobs in cathedrals that offered pay well below the "living wage" of 7.85 pounds ($12) an hour, endorsed by the Church and senior politicians.
Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, said the Church recognized that no employer could ramp up wages overnight, and was working hard to get to a point where it was paying all of its workers the living wage.
"It's embarrassing. We'd prefer to be there. We're getting there as quickly as we can," Welby, the spiritual head of the 80-million strong Anglican communion, told the BBC.
"It's not the only area where we fall short of our own standards. We work on it as hard as we can," he said.

In the prime fishing months when bass are in a chasing mood, all sorts of lures, patterns and presentations might produce. When the water temperature gets below 50 degrees, though, it's time to slow down and simplify. In most lakes the fish get lethargic and don't move around much. They want their food in small bites and without much action. You practically have to spoon-feed them at times. I'll throw a jerkbait or a Wiggle Wart if the conditions warrant it, but my number one bait for winter fishing is a jig.
First, trim and thin out the skirt to make it more compact, and pair the jig with a chunk trailer. After you cast it out, let it sink all the way to the bottom and then drag it along very slowly. Fish it on points at the mouths of creeks, at docks along bluff banks, the back ends of creeks and anywhere near the bank that's fairly close to deep water. Bass will move more vertically up and down the water column than horizontally now, so don't spend much time fishing gradually sloping banks. You're not going to get a lot of bites - maybe five or six a day - and you've got to make the most of the bites you get. Because it's better to use a smaller jig with lighter line, it's important to use a hook of a lighter gauge so you can set it better. In cold weather I like to fish a jig on 10- or 12-pound test Berkley 100 percent fluorocarbon line. Match it with a medium-heavy rod with a fast tip, and you've got the perfect winter jig outfit.

Very cute pattern. My only complaint is that the flap sticks up when I put it on my computer. My computer is 15" and this one is supposed to fit computers that size but I think it is a little small.
This is one of the two sleeves that I bought and the colors on this one are so vibrant.The sleeve fits my 15" Toshiba as well.
This sleeve is so pretty and fits my 15.6" laptop....perfect for protection. Yes, the flap sticks up a little but that is fine, it doesn't need to be any looser or it would fall out. The only downside of this sleeve is that is had a strong smell coming out of the package like rubber or something. Hopefully that smell disappears soon. Other than that I am very pleased with this product, the colors are very vibrant.

Hello Anthony,
I noticed that there is extensive use of the
<i> element throughout the templates in order to display the icons. This results in having several
<i class="..."></i> blocks without any text.
Since the
<i> element is supposed to be used with text, an author might have used it inside the post body in order to give emphasis to some words.
In that case, I try to imagine how a search engine would value the existence of multiple
<i> elements throughout the page, some of them enclosing text and some others not enclosing any text.
My thought is that the search engine could be confused by this. The empty
<i> tags could mean that the author is using the
<i> element for something different than emphasizing text (which actually happens now) and thus automatically undervalue any text enclosed in
<i> elements as well.
I was wondering if it would be better to use another element for the icons, for instance
<span>. I tested it and it seems to work well and validates without any issues.
I'm not an expert in this field and I hope I am not exaggerating here. But I'd really like to hear your thoughts about this.
Thanks in advance,

CM Punk & Daniel Bryan def. The Wyatt Family via Disqualification
The confidence of champions and some well-honed teamwork propelled CM Punk & Daniel Bryan to triumph at Survivor Series against Erick Rowan & Luke Harper. With Bray Wyatt himself joining the fray, though, all the braggadocio in the world wasn't enough to save the two former WWE Champions from suffering the wrath of The Wyatts … and a few others as well.
Bray's presence quickly galvanized Harper & Rowan into a new level of brutality, and for a while it looked like the former WWE Champions' gooses were well and cooked until Punk came in to take control. Bryan tagged back in against Harper to reclaim the momentum when things turned sour, but the official lost control of the bout when all three Wyatts stormed the ring and ruled a Disqualification win for the dream team.
Watch: Post-match mayhem dooms Punk & Bryan
The night wasn't quite over, though, as The Wyatts laid waste to Punk and hauled a beaten Bryan off to parts unknown. The Straight Edge Superstar gave chase but didn't get far before Roman Reigns trucked him with a massive spear, following up with a Triple Powerbomb from the aid of his fellow Shield-mates that left Punk down for the count and then some.
CM Punk & Daniel Bryan def. Luke Harper & Erick Rowan
Thanksgiving may be days away, but after not only surviving, but prevailing in, a dangerous brawl against The Wyatt Family at WWE's fall classic, The Best and The Beard have plenty to be thankful for.
Despite competing at an immense size disadvantage and having to contend with the ringside presence of Bray Wyatt, the potent combination of CM Punk & Daniel Bryan dealt a huge loss to Luke Harper & Erick Rowan at the 27th annual Survivor Series.
At just under 17 minutes, Punk hit the GTS on Harper to score the winning pinfall. Though the victory was undoubtedly gratifying to The Second City Saint and WWE's "Yes!" man, it was anything but easy.
For weeks, the wicked trio's sneak attacks have decimated the popular Superstars, with The Eater of Worlds blaming their actions on "the devil" and urging Punk and Bryan to "run." The Wyatt Family laid out Punk & Bryan as recently as two days ago on SmackDown, but on the Survivor Series Kickoff, The Best in the World made clear that he and Bryan were not afraid of their opposition but, rather, eager to scrap.
And what a scrap it was. To the sounds of the sold-out T.D. Garden chanting "Yes!" and "This is awesome!" the contrasting styles — Harper and Rowan's ferocious fisticuffs, and Punk and Bryan's technique — played out in an evenly fought contest. Sitting in his trademark rocking chair, Wyatt watched on as his lurching monsters mauled their smaller opponents in the early goings, despite Punk and Bryan's best efforts to strike and move.
The Best and The Beard did land a series of double-team maneuvers, including a double dropkick and an homage to The Hart Foundation's Hart Attack, but a savvy distraction by Rowan gave Harper time to regain composure and drop Punk with a massive boot to the face.
From there, the Wyatt Family members' backwoods brawling style took over in impressive form.

Not Fade Away: U2 Set Their Sights On America With 'Under A Blood Red Sky'Their June 5, 1983 concert at the Red Rocks amphitheater in Colorado would prove an important step in taking them from their underground roots and their Springsteen-ian ambitions. They filmed the show for a live "home video" (as they were called in those pre-DVD days), Live At Red Rocks; two of the songs from that would also be used for the Under A Blood Red Sky EP (which also included performances recorded in Boston and Germany).
Not Fade Away: Billy Idol's 'Rebel Yell,' 30 Years After MTV Brought It to the MassesFor a full year, Idol was omnipresent on the still-young television network. The heavy rotation of his videos helped fuel the success of 'Rebel Yell,' his 1983 album that spent 70 weeks on the Billboard chart, peaking at No. 6 and selling more than two million copies in the U.S. alone.
Not Fade Away: John Mellencamp Reclaims His Name (And Creative Control) With 'Uh-Huh'In which the former 'Johnny Cougar' loses the record label interference and gains his real last name…and a new fan in Matthew McConaughey.

Not Fade Away: Elton John's 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' - His Ultimate Album?To paraphrase the Ringo Starr classic, it don't always come easy, and that was the case with Elton John's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road." Elton took his team -- lyricist Bernie Taupin, guitarist Davey Johnstone, bassist Dee Murray, drummer Nigel Olsson and producer Gus Dudgeon -- to Jamaica to record the follow-up to two consecutive #1 albums: 1972's "Honky Chateau" and 1973's "Don't Shoot Me, I'm Only The Piano Player."
