Conjurer, Mages Guild
|Reached Conjurer rank in the Mages Guild
Talk to Raminus after your promotion to Evoker and he will ask you to help another mage, Irlav Jarol, with his excavation and investigation of the Ayleid ruin called Vahtacen. Irlav is somewhere in the Arcane University, so follow your quest marker to track him down and he will direct you to talk to Skaleel, the mage running the research at Vahtacen. Before you arrive at the site, make sure you have a spell, scroll, or staff capable of casting a Frost Damage spell. Travel to the site, south of Cheydinhal, and talk to Skaleel. She tells you that a pillar is blocking their access to the rest of ruins and tasks you with figuring out how to open it. Denel, another mage, is in the room containing the pillar and he suggests that you get a book from Skaleel on Ayleid translations so you can interpret the inscriptions on the four tablets in the corners of the room.
Talk to Skaleel again and she will give you the book. Go back to the pillar room, read the inscriptions, and then talk to Denel again. It turns out that you have to cast four different kinds of magic spells (Fire Damage, Frost Damage, Damage Magicka, and Fortify Magicka), in that order, on the pillar to make it open. You should have brought a Frost Damage spell with you and there are scrolls for the other three types of spells in the chest that you find in that room. Cast the spells in the sequence listed above and the pillar will open up, revealing a stairway. Explore the ruins, killing off the undead that you find there, until you locate an Ancient Elven Helm. Talk to Skaleel and she will instruct you to go back to the Arcane University with the helm. Take the helm back Irlav and then talk to Raminus to receive your promotion to Conjurer.

Rounding out the weekend with a star-studded shindig, the 2015 American Music Awards took over the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles last night (November 22).
Leading the pack with three wins (including Song of the Year and Album of the Year) was Taylor Swift, though her ex-boyfriend Harry Styles and his One Direction bandmates nabbed Favorite Group and Artist of the Year honors.
An Australian woman has been arrested for throwing eggs at Kendall and Kylie Jenner.
The fashion-forward Jenners were promoting their clothing line at a Sydney shopping mall on Tuesday (November 17) when a 30-year-old woman started hurling eggs at the siblings from the level above them.
When it comes to fashion magazines, Kendall Jenner has solidified herself as one of the industry's most-sought after people of interest.
Most recently, the 20-year-old "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" cutie can be seen in wonder.land in the Most Fantastical Looks of Fall for Vogue's December 2015 issue.
Taking over an east side armory in New York City, the 2015 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show got underway last night (November 10) with plenty of celebrity guests.
Living up to her moniker, Rebel Wilson took a few shots at the Jenners and Kardashians during her interview on the Australian radio show "Kyle and Jackie O."
Following news that her gal pal Gigi Hadid will walk in the 2015 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, Kendall Jenner also received an invite to get in on the fun.
She always knows how to pull off the perfect look for each and every gig, and Kendall Jenner is ready for some fun in the new Holiday spread from Penshoppe.
The 20-year-old poser flirts up a storm with a glossy red lip as she works her magic in the Filipino brand's new advertisement, featuring a wet hairstyle and plenty of party pics.
On any given day it's pretty normal to see a celebrity while traveling through LAX International Airport, but on Wednesday (October 21) a quartet of cuties showed up in the terminal.
Kendall and Kylie Jenner arrived on an incoming flight, no doubt taking care of some career duties before returning home to their family.

DENVER (AP) -- Christmas skiing at Colorado ski resorts isn't quite as joyful as last year.
Snow totals at many resorts are down overall and meager in comparison with snowfall seen during the holiday week in 2010.
Vail had 19 inches of snow on Sunday. The Denver Post reports that's down from the average of nearly 33 inches seen on Christmases in the 2000s. Last Christmas, the resort had 41 inches of snow.
Ski Cooper near Leadville didn't open until Saturday because of a lack of snow.
Winter Park has 26 inches of snow, with 70 percent of its terrain open.
Jennifer Rudolph of Colorado Ski Country USA says the lack of snow so far isn't a concern. She says there's plenty more winter still ahead.

Natural Remedies for Type 2 Diabetes
In this article
What Natural Dietary Supplements Are Used for Diabetes Treatment? continued...
Several types of plants are referred to as ginseng, but most studies of ginseng and diabetes have used American ginseng. Those studies have shown some sugar-lowering effects in fasting and after-meal blood sugar levels as well as in A1c levels (average blood sugar levels over a three-month period). However, larger and more long-term studies are needed before general recommendations for use of ginseng can be made. Researchers also have determined that the amount of sugar-lowering compound in ginseng plants varies widely.
Although the relationship between magnesium and diabetes has been studied for decades, it is not yet fully understood. Studies show that a deficiency in magnesium may worsen blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes. Scientists say that a deficiency of magnesium interrupts insulin secretion in the pancreas and increases insulin resistance in the body's tissues. Evidence suggests that a deficiency of magnesium may contribute to certain diabetes complications. A recent analysis showed that people with higher dietary intakes of magnesium (through consumption of whole grains, nuts, and green leafy vegetables) had a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes.
Vanadium is a compound found in tiny amounts in plants and animals. Early studies showed that vanadium normalized blood sugar levels in animals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. A recent study found that when people with diabetes were given vanadium, they developed a modest increase in insulin sensitivity and were able to decrease their insulin requirements. Currently researchers want to understand how vanadium works in the body, discover potential side effects, and establish safe dosages.
Coenzyme Q10
Coenzyme Q10, often referred to as CoQ10 (other names include ubiquinone and ubiquinol) is a vitamin-like substance. CoQ10 helps cells make energy and acts as an antioxidant. Meats and seafood contain small amounts of CoQ10. Supplements are marketed as tablets and capsules. The evidence is not sufficient to evaluate CoQ10's effectiveness as a complementary or alternative therapy for diabetes. CoQ10 has not been shown to affect blood sugar control.
What Plant Foods Are Used for Diabetes Treatment?
The following plant foods are sometimes used for diabetes treatment, particularly for those with type 2 diabetes.
- Brewer's yeast
- Buckwheat
- Broccoli and other related greens
- Cinnamon
- Cloves
- Coffee
- Okra
- Peas
- Fenugreek seeds
- Sage

Probably this blog platform is too old for a plugin, but maybe not. Back in the dark ages, I used some kind of CARP solution, but it was not pretty. I was hoping there was a smoother way to approach this. Any suggestions?

Pablo Cueto Amorsolo (June 26, 1898 – February 21, 1945) was a Filipino painter. He was the younger brother of the Philippine National Artist Fernando Amorsolo.[1][2][3][4]
Pablo Amorsolo was born in Daet, Camarines Norte to husband and wife Pedro Amorsolo, as a book keeper and Bonifacia Cueto. When he was still eight years old, his family moved to Manila.[1]
During World War II, Amorsolo was captured by Filipino troops.[1]
He was sentenced and executed by firing squad in the hands of guerillas. He died in this manner at the Antipolo, Rizal in 1945.[1]
He became an apprentice-painter under the guidance of his uncle, Fabián de la Rosa, an expert painter. After elementary schooling, Amorsolo studied at the Lyceum of Manila. He later graduated from the School of Fine Arts of the University of the Philippines in 1924.[1][3]
Two years after enrolling as a student at the University of the Philippines, he was appointed as an assistant-teacher for painting. He taught painting until the arrival of the Second World War.[1]
Amorsolo was an enthusiast of both classical and modern-day forms of art. During the 1930s, he drew and painted may editorial illustrations for Philippine magazines such as the Graphic, Tribune, La Vanguardia, Herald, and Manila Times. He became one of the causes for the rise of the so-called genre art in the Philippines, because he weaved, through his artistic brush strokes, a wide variety of images that show native and social scenes and scenarios. He was also a known master of portrait paintings who had the ability to give life to any individual subject. He painted people from different levels of society and also from varied age brackets, where he was able to present his ability to understand the characteristics and personalities of his human subjects. He also created works that portray themes related to Philippine history. Examples of these are the large images of Magellan and the Natives and The Discovery of the Philippines. The latter was painted in 1944.[1]
Unfortunately, most of Amorsolo's paintings were destroyed by a fire which occurred in 1945.[1]

Scoring defense: 48.6 ppg (4th in 3A)
Last state championship: 1970
Prep editor James Edward's bracket: Loss to Judge in first round.
Edward's evaluation: Dixie isn't your ordinary No. 4 seed. The Flyers have several quality region and nonregion wins under their belts, and on any given night can play with anyone in 3A. With that said, they face arguably the toughest test of the first round in trying to steal a victory at arguably the toughest place to play in 3A.
Hurricane Tigers (15-5)
Coach: Brian Vaifanua
How qualified: Finished tied for second in Region 9 with Cedar at 9-3, but won the coin flip to claim the No. 2 seed.
Playoff opener: vs. Park City, Saturday, 5 p.m.
Best preseason victory: A 66-55 win against Lehi at Dixie State College on Dec. 21.
Best region victory: A 54-53 win against Desert Hills on Jan. 13.

Scoring defense: 47.6 ppg (3rd in 3A)
Last state championship: 1982 (2A)
Prep editor James Edward's bracket: Loss to Desert Hills in championship.
Edward's evaluation: Thanks to a successful coin flip, Hurricane doesn't have to leave Southern Utah for the playoffs. That's not to say the wins will come easy, because a 20-point loss to Desert Hills last week and a preseason loss to Bear River are proof that the Tigers are vulnerable. But, things are shaping up nicely for a nice little playoff run.
Juan Diego Soaring Eagle (10-12)
Coach: Brandon Sluga
How qualified: Finished in a fourth-place tie with Uintah in Region 10 at 3-7, but beat Uintah in a tiebreaker to qualify for the state tournament.
Playoff opener: at Desert Hills, Saturday, 6 p.m.
Best preseason victory: A 61-51 win at East on Dec. 13.
Best region victory: A 77-44 play-in game victory against Uintah on Feb. 14.

I recently installed WordPress 2.0 and I've been (slowly and painfully) importing my old blog posts into it. I've noticed an annoying glitch in the process.
Non-coded line breaks are not being ignored. IOW, I only want WP to display breaks if a

 is coded. Due to idiosynchracies of my old blogging software, my posts are littered with carriage returns that are not intended to be part of the entries as displayed. When viewed by themselves in any browser or editor, the posts display fine, but when WP displays them, the carriage returns are converted to

Is there a way to stop this annoying behavior?

"Indiana announced Thursday that the former Arizona State guard will transfer to Bloomington and enroll in graduate school so he can be eligible immediately next season. Gordon, an Indianapolis native, is the brother of former Indiana star and NBA guard Eric Gordon."
This guy just does not stay at one place for very long (began career at Liberty), but a good move for him. Averaged 10.1 ppg last year for the Sun Devils, and could come in and help fortify a young Indiana team. Getting to play in your home state in front of friends and family is an added bonus as well.

For outward focus, for provision, for every need He shall supply! Isaiah26:3! Focus from the inside on the outside, and the "outside" moves inside! Revelation 3:20!
Lord, these folks have a LOT on their plate! But they have YOU, Halleluyah, they have You! In that truth they have everything they need. They even have the trials they need! Dear Jesus, Dearest Abba, please simply light their path. If it seems dark, send the torch lights of dreams and visions! Magnify Thy name through these wonderful ones of yours! AMEN, HalleluYah, Woo Hoo !!!!!!!!!
7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
Dear Jones family, I'm sending these links as it may be the Lord prompting me to do it. I have been sending them to others as I believe the author Billheimer has struck gold (Rev. 3:18).

Harlan The Maiden 2008
Other Red Blends from Napa Valley, California
Winemaker's Notes
The individual lots of the 2008 vintage are consistently impressive and opulent. Aged in French oak barrels in the second-year cellar, they provide a wealth of very high-quality components for blending.
Only shipping discounts can be applied to this product, other promotional discounts do not apply.
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "The 2008 The Maiden is a beautiful wine graced with exquisite finesse in its dark red berries, flowers and licorice. Gorgeous inner perfume and a super-refined personality are some of the qualities found in the 2008 Maiden. A weightless, subtle finish rounds things out nicely. Stylistically the 2008 Maiden is quite a bit more delicate – at times even fleeting – next to the 2008 Harlan Estate. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023."
Vinous / Antonio Galloni - "The 2008 The Maiden is a beautiful wine graced with exquisite finesse in its dark red berries, flowers and licorice. Gorgeous inner perfume and a super-refined personality are some of the qualities found in the 2008 Maiden. A weightless, subtle finish rounds things out nicely. Stylistically the 2008 Maiden is quite a bit more delicate – at times even fleeting – next to the 2008 Harlan Estate. "
Wine Spectator - "Loamy earth notes and mouthcoating tannins provide the baseline for this rich, layered effort, which is full-bodied, with toned-down dried currant, mocha, spice, cedar and sage notes. Drink now through 2020. "
International Wine Cellar - "Good full ruby-red. Very ripe aromas of gravel and chocolate. Sweet on entry, then more subdued in the middle, with a medicinal reserve to the flavors of redcurrant, plum and graphite minerality. I find this less sweet and giving today than the Bond Matriarch but more precise. This firmly tannic second wine needs four or five years of cellaring and may ultimately merit a higher score."

Harlan Estate Winery
For over two decades, Harlan Estate has been committed to creating a California "first growth" wine estate. Founded in 1984, Harlan Estate is set in the western hills of Oakville, rising above the fabled Napa Valley benchlands. Carved from the raw land and built for generations, the estate is over 240 acres of natural spendor, 15% of which are under vine, planted to the classic varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. View all Harlan Estate Wines
About Napa ValleyView a map of Napa Valley wineries
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard lands were scooped up and vines were planted throughout the county. A number of wineries emerged, from large conglomerates to small boutiques to cult classics. Cabernet Sauvignon is definitely the grape of choice here, with many winemakers also focusing on Bordeaux Blends. Whites are usually Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
Notable FactsWithin the Napa Valley lie smaller sub-AVAs that lend even more character specifics to the wines. Furthest south is Carneros, followed by Yountville, Oakville & Rutherford. Above those two is St.-Helena and finally, just granted an AVA, Calistoga. These areas are situated on the valley floor and are known for creating rich, smooth Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay. There are a few mountain regions as well, nestled on the slopes overlooking the valley AVAs. Those include Howell Mountain, Stags Leap and Mount Veeder. Wines from the mountain regions are often more structured and firm, benefiting from more time in the bottle to evolve and soften.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Michele Bachmann, congresswoman, spotted at U.S. Capitol
Michele Bachmann: "Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Can someone help me find my office?"
Michele Bachmann used to be a United States Congresslady, at least that's what her official presidential biography claims.
In fact, if you invoke the ancient rules of the House of Representatives, Bachmann is technically still an elected official, but only by the narrowest of margins. As the Founding Fathers initially intended, people -- well, white guys -- would get elected to the House for a two-year term, and then they'd stick around for pretty much both of those years.
But Bachmann has bigger and better things to do these days. She's got a presidential campaign to run, which, as we speak, is imploding in Iowa, falling in Florida, and spelunking in South Carolina. Maintaining that kind of nationwide disaster is a full-time job.
And so, it was a curious sight yesterday, when Michele Bachmann reentered the halls of the U.S. Capitol, and actually voted on a few things -- some sort of bills, which could someday become United States policy, it seems. The last time Bachmann stooped so low was three months and 88 (!) votes ago.
What drew Michele off her glorious campaign? Actually, it was kind of important.
Juan Manuel Santos, Michele Bachmann: President, not president.
Bachmann voted three separate times on proposed trade agreements with Panama, South Korea, and Colombia. To be clear, there were three separate bills, and Bachmann wasn't just repeatedly voting on the same bill over and over. (Though with this much rust on her voting record, you can imagine there was a bit of, "How do I do this again? Do I push a button or pull a lever? Is it pronounced LEE-ver or le-ver?") Those bills passed the House, and Bachmann hailed a legislative triumph while also doing a bit of foreign policy flexing in a statement, ABC News reports.
"My long-standing support of the free trade agreements was reinforced when I met with Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos in Colombia in February, and again when I discussed trade in my office with South Korean Ambassador Han Duk-soo in June. Both the countries of Colombia and South Korea are eager for the implementation of these free trade agreements."
And what a fine statement, Michele. Oh, sorry, for the benefit of the blind, any chance you could read it aloud? We're all a bit curious to hear you try Ambassador Duk-soo's name.
Earlier this week, Bachmann, uh, lied to the people of New Hampshire, telling a crowd there that she hadn't been around much lately because her "first duty was to go back to Washington, D.C."
What exactly she was doing back in D.C. is unclear, because she sure as hell hasn't been legislating -- not that she's ever been all that into that anyway.
Well, if she's telling that to the people of New Hampshire -- coming off like some sort of deadbeat dad who's got another family across town -- it'll be interesting to hear what she's telling the people of the Sixth District about where she's been.
But for some time, and into the foreseeable future, Bachmann's statements to her district have come from her official spokespeople: Crickets.

I know there are a lot of threads on the subject of changing the order of posts, especially to put them into reverse chron order or alphabetical etc, but I couldn't find a thread for a different question: How do I change the order of my posts <i>individually</i>? That is, let's say I have 10 posts on my blog. But I want to add a new post into the number 2 position. Or perhaps I want to move number 4 to be where the first post is, etc. Is there a way to do this fairly easily from within Admin?

Cons: Screen Flickers! Uninstalled and re-installed drivers a bunch of times. Followed AMD's instructions to a tee. Tried everything. Searched for days. No matter what I do, I get screen flickers.
Other Thoughts: I was using my on board 3300 series and bought this to upgrade my computer. With the drivers installed the video does improve with higher performance. But the screen flickers. I am better off with the mobo GPU.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: APEVIA ATX-AS680W-BL 680W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready Power Supply
Pros: Looks cool, nice cable sleeves
Cons: Had it for about 8 months and it is now starting to fail. When gaming, makes nasty cap / switching squeel and games that used to play with no problems are now freezing up with random reboots.
Other Thoughts: You get what you pay for. Should of known better and was warned. Now I'm off to buy a Corsair.READ FULL REVIEW

Another nice track, this album is going to be good.
Whoa! This is a banger! This LP is shaping up to be some of El-P's best production I've ever heard.
This album is going to be ridiculous, every track I've heard is a banger.
Bored of this mc though. He always sounds the same…He spoiled the good beats.

Gerber, Toskala earning their time
Let down by high-priced starters, the Ducks and Sharks have reaped benefits with backups.
Updated: December 10, 2003, 2:38 PM ETBy EJ Hradek | ESPN The Magazine
In a surprisingly wide-open Pacific Division, a pair of strange and unlikely names have floated to the surface.
Anonymous backup goalies who could skate across the United States without being recognized by even the most hard-core hockey fan, Anaheim's Martin Gerber and San Jose's Vesa Toskala, have become early season-savers for their teams, which will play two home-and-home series in 12 days.
Gerber's impact has been surprising, considering the brick wall-like playoff performance ...

Bryce Carter, 7, from left, Laykn Forrester, 8, and Chloe Hudson, 7, enjoy the spoils of their efforts Saturday during the annual Mayor's Easter Egg Hunt at Tilles Park. More than 1,000 children participated in age-specific hunts to recover the 25,000 plastic eggs filled with candy and prizes in the event sponsored by Grand Avenue Baptist Church. Bryce and Laykn are the children of Ashley and Jed Carter of Greenwood. Chloe is the daughter of Deanna Hudson of Fort Smith.

Shia LaBeouf is back in the news today for two reasons: TMZ has obtained footage of a physical altercation the actor found himself in outside a bar in Vancouver, where he's now filming Robert Redford's The Company You Keep. After the man punching LaBeouf is chased off by others, the actor appears to want to go after him but is stopped. If you watch until the end of the sneakily shot video, you get to see a man who appears to come out of nowhere asking LaBeouf if he can hug him. That's something that would happen in a movie about a movie star who keeps getting into brawls. You can watch the video here. LaBeouf's publicist declined to comment to EW about the incident.
And what if care more about LaBeouf's career?
Well, EW has confirmed that he's signed on to star as a 20-foot-tall man-child who forms a relationship with a down-on-her-luck girl next door in a "quirky love story" with the working title A Giant. (Variety first reported the story.) Monster House's Gil Kenan will direct his own script. Jim Henson Co. is among the film's producers.
Here's a more appropriate video to accompany that bit of news.

My husband and I used this spice mix for a tandoori shrimp and vegetables yogurt marinade. We broiled the veggies and shrimp on skewers. The flavor from spice mix was so good we didn't want the incredible taste in our mouths to go away. Great spice mix! Great for marinades! Incredibly great aroma!!!
This spice mix was great! I had everything on hand except for the mace and the brown cardamom but it still tasted great with those omitted. I didn't add any food coloring to the spice mix because I added it directly to the tandoori chicken so I can't review how adding it directly affects the spices. Thank you!
I used a little less Cloves, and had no cardamom and didn't want to use the red food coloring, but no matter this was amazing!! Used this recipe for Warm Tandoori Chicken Salad (21 Day Wonder Diet: Day 4). Thank you for sharing Sandi.
This is a great spice mix! I used it on some chicken ( butter chicken). I did not have and fenugreek or mace so I substituted fennel seeds and allspice. I did not use the food coloring either. Thank you for a great recipe.
I guess the mix is ok but this is not the full recipe for tandoori anything and the spice mix itself would be useless for most people. If someone knew nothing about indian cooking and tried to use it as described it would not be anything like indian food to be because there is NO heat. If you were to take this recipe and add it to 1 cup yogurt and 1/4 cup lemon juice and about 1/4 cup ground peppers (depending on what type of chillis you use and the amont of Heat you want.) and marinade what ever meat you are making then this would be useful. I give this a low rating because it is incomplete. A few lines of what you could do with the Masala would make it a truly useful recipe.

Scaling of Fracture and Faulting of Ice on Earth

The scaling properties of fracture and faulting of ice on Earth are reviewed.Numerous evidences for the scaling of fracture and faulting of ice are given,including self-affine fracture surfaces, fractal fracture networks at small(laboratory) and large (geophysical) scales, power law distributions of fracturelengths or of fragment sizes within fault gouges. These scaling laws are discussedin terms of the underlying mechanics. Scaling of the observables associated withfracture and faulting argues for the scale invariance of the fracture and faultingprocesses and indicates that small scales cannot be arbitrarily disconnected fromlarge scales. Consequently, quantitative links between scales cannot be performedthrough classical homogenization procedures. Scaling can also induce scale effectson different mechanical parameters such as fracture energy, strength or stiffness.Although scaling is ubiquitous for the fracture of ice on Earth, important exceptionsexist such as the nucleation of microcracks or the crevassing of glaciers. Theseexceptions are stressed and discussed.

A souvenir tee shirt worn by Nelda Bond in Wichita Falls, Texas, Wednesday, June 24, 1998, is emblazed with the Dallas Cowboys summer camp at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas. (AP Photo/Ron Heflin)Cowboys' new summer home not getting much respect
The Associated Press
WICHITA FALLS (AP) - Hot.
That's the operative word for the Dallas Cowboys' first summer training camp in this frisky, fun-loving, much-maligned outpost of 103,000, a Rodney Dangerfield of Texas cities.
But it's not just the weather that's sizzling. So are a whole bunch of folks in Wichita Falls and at the local newspaper, the Times Record News.
The target of the residents' wrath isn't the Cowboys. It's Texas Monthly.
A story entitled "Hut, Hut, Yikes!" appears in the July issue of the magazine and suggests that the Cowboys' dismal 1997 campaign (6-10) cannot rival the suffering they will endure during a monthlong stay in Wichita Falls.
Freakish weather. Fat dancers. Beer-guzzling rednecks. Rampaging emus.
Native son Skip Hollandsworth wrote that heat "as heavy as wool" will greet Jerry Jones and the Cowboys when they arrive July 15, adding: "After sweating under the sun for an afternoon, you start smelling like roadkill. If you spend too much time outside, the temperature of your blood starts to rise, your vision blurs and your legs start quivering like dying fish on hooks."
Then, he said, you faint.
"It's bad enough," writes Hollandsworth, the son of a former Wichita Falls Presbyterian minister, "that the Cowboys will have to spend a few weeks in a city where the dancers in the topless bars are heavier than they are."
The response was swift.
"Well, they've done it again," the Times Record News grumbled in an editorial on Thursday. "Back in 1978, Texas Monthly showed its smart-alecky Austinite mean streak by saying that being a full-time resident of Wichita Falls was one of the 10-worst jobs in the state."
Now, it continued, "Hollandsworth adds his voice to the chorus of cheap-shot DJs and two-bit columnists from the Dallas area in whacking Wichita Falls for its weather."
Editor Carroll Wilson, who wrote the editorial, told his readers not to rush out and buy the magazine, that he could summarize the article for them pretty simply:
"... Wichita Falls is really, really, really hot. The Cowboys are gonna hate it so much they're gonna win the Super Bowl with brains fried by nothing but the afternoon heat."
Wilson accused Hollandsworth of beating a dead horse.
"Of course it's hot here. ... And that's the way we like it, us and 103,000 other souls who believe there's more to a city than interminable traffic tie-ups, indefatigable drug dealers and insufferably smug magazine editors."
And by the way, Wilson added, "If you can't take the heat ..."
In a column appearing in Sunday's editions, Ted Buss, with tongue at least partially in cheek, refers to the Texas Monthly article as "garbage" and Hollandsworth as "a man with no hometown."
Buss said his old buddy Skip has sent Wichita Falls "back to the valley of lepers ... the damp catacombs of the hopeless ... the dreary boxcars for the condemned ..."
Hey, says Hollandsworth, he was only kidding.
"I write one tiny story making fun of the summer heat, and how the Cowboys are going to fare if July hits the way it can, and I am literally the anti-Christ," he moaned.
He really, really likes Wichita Falls, Hollandsworth told Times Record News reporter Leah Quin.
"It was just the most glorious place to grow up. It was fun. Everyone was a character. Surviving the weather - I especially like the city because of the weather. It was kind of a bond we all had."
But it may be too late.
"We just loved his dad," said Roby Christie, Wichita Falls' postmaster. "It's a shame that man's son has to be so ornery when his dad was so nice."
HEAD:Bashing continues
It's Happy Hour at the Deuce P2, a landmark drive-in and former stag bar famous for steak-on-garlic-toast sandwiches and red draws - beer mixed with tomato juice.
The boys at the bar are two-deep and discussing the Cowboys, the media, a dynamite blonde named Pam, red draws, heat, tornadoes and topless dancers.
"They called our dancing girls big, fat cows," complained one regular.
"Are they?" a visitor wondered.
"Nah," quipped a buddy. "They're just cows."
Food salesman Arvol Hodge, a Deuce mainstay for 18 years, suggests the debate over the Cowboys' camp is borderline silly.
"Anybody who don't want the Cowboys up here, they ought to move," he declared. "We're in this for the money and the friendship ... and as long as you tell the truth, you can write anything."
Added his crony, Ken Wigginton, a lawyer: "I think if people have a chance to see us, they'll report the truth. This is a great town."
Jean Woodley, a one-time Deuce carhop and now its owner and "den mother," says it's "wonderful" that the Cowboys are coming to town.
"I think we'll get a lot of tourists," she said.
Over at the Bar-L, barbecue ribs compete with red draws and Tammy Wynette as the specialty of the house.
On the jukebox, Tammy's standing by her man, Patsy Cline's going "Crazy," and Roy Orbison's proclaiming the charms of "Pretty Woman" in advance of a platter of ribs that "must have been carved from a dinosaur," says a visitor, eyeing four smoking, greasy, delicious monsters.
"We sell 25 cases of ribs a week, and there's 60 pounds to the case," brags Eddie Cluley, Jean Woodley's son-in-law, who rides herd on both the Deuce and the Bar-L.
"Jerry (Jones) wanted a place where there's not a whole lot to do at night, where the guys can't run around and get in trouble," Cluley said.
"And by God, he found it ..."
A loyal Cowboy fan
The Cowboys' No. 1 local fan is Nelda Bond, 53, who keeps herself, her kids, her nine grandkids and her four dogs decked out in team jerseys and other blue-and-white regalia.
Her fence, home and car are decorated with Cowboys paraphernalia, a blue star glitters atop her roof nightly, and in season, a Cowboys flag flutters atop a flagpole planted in her front yard.
Neighbors know by the sound of her air horn each time Dallas scores.
"Nobody likes to be around me when the Cowboys are playing," she says, smiling and slipping uniforms - all No. 12 in honor of Roger Staubach - on her Eskimo Spitz for a photo op.
"I love it, I love it," she says of Camp Cowboys.
Warning: Troy Aikman should be on the lookout for a short, blond woman wearing a warm smile and a Cowboys T-shirt and driving a Bronco with photographs of No. 8 on the dash and the console. She most likely will be accompanied by four snow-white dogs wearing blue-and-white scarves or jerseys bearing the names Eagle Eye, Sasquaw, Chinook and Nugget.
"Oh, I'd love to meet him," says this woman.
A trouble-free environment?
The Cowboys ended their fun-filled eighth year of training-camp follies in Austin last summer by trashing their dormitory at St. Edward's University to the tune of some $10,000.
But Jones said that episode had nothing to do with the severing of ties in Austin and the February decision to move the camp to Wichita Falls.
Some sports columnists and radio talk show hosts found it darkly humorous that America's Team would leave a high-profile city of ultra-bright lights for a town whose claim to fame includes tornadoes, 100-degree-plus summers and the Hotter 'N Hell Hundred bicycle ride.
Curious, the Austin American-Statesman quickly dispatched a photographer and a reporter to the city 125 miles northwest of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
"The move from Austin to Wichita Falls could make it more difficult for the Cowboys to get in trouble," reported John Kelso. "Entertainment here can be fairly tame."
By way of example he pointed to the ongoing Texoma Farm & Ranch Show.
Not unlike Texas Monthly's Hollandsworth, Kelso also found that dancers at one of the few topless bars "could stand to join the Cowboys at training camp, to knock off a few pounds."
Mid-week research at Maximus, a "gentleman's club" on the Seymour Highway, found this claim a bit suspect. Well-rounded, perhaps, but hardly fat. And not a cow in sight.
But what most incensed some people here was a photograph of the downtown area - as a backdrop to a truck full of trash and a junkyard full of cars.
"Downtown Wichita Falls, most of which can be seen in background, will afford the Dallas Cowboys fewer distractions than are found in downtown Austin," the caption said smugly.
Since then, Wilson has sent a writer and a photographer from the Wichita Falls newspaper to Austin for a retaliatory strike. Their handiwork will appear in the Times Record News on Sunday, July 5.
Things are heating up, so to speak. And the Cowboys haven't even hit town.

My children attend Saturday afternoon Greek School for four hours (think: My Big Fat Greek Wedding). My background is Greek, I speak it but my husband doesn't so speaking it at home just doesn't come naturally. We also have Rosetta Stone Greek, and I find it to be an excellent program, and we use it sporadically as a supplement.
Where I live there are ethnic language programs offered in various community/church settings. A friend of mine has her children in the Saturday Spanish program through the Spanish community. She is not Spanish, and that hasn't been a problem. I have heard that there is a similar German program offered somewhere in the city.
Other than Rosetta Stone, I do not have any experience with other computer language programs, but I can say I do like Rosetta Stone a lot. Try checking out some language programs through the community like the ones mentioned above.
We love our Saturday Greek School. The kids have made some great friends, they get the 'schooly' experience, they sit in a desk, have a backpack and lunch kit, are learning lots of Greek, and dh and I get a 4 hour date! My only kid free time all week.

This is a very interesting and sobering place to visit. Pictured here is a memorial to the September 11, 2001 victims. The red thing pictured between the 2 towers is an actual piece of the WTC that was given to Dodge City by the city of New York. In front of the memorial is an information board showing a picture of the piece being brought in draped by an American Flag.
The city also has plans to place a piece of Pentagon Limestone and a piece of sandstone from the Flight 93 crash site in the near future.
Address: Wright Park, 2nd Street Dodge City, KS

This is an old western city from back in the 1800's. The shops, stores, brothels, and saloons are all there linked together. There are also numerous artifacts on display here.
This place is really awesome, and there is much history here. The old Boot Hill Cemetary is a must-see.
Also on display is Wyatt Earp's gun.
Address: Dodge City, Kansas
Directions: US 50 between Garden City and Wichita.
