Young Matthew Ellison, a senior at Yale, ends his vaporings with this:
"My criticism of Westergaard and the perpetrators of violence and my praise of the Yale administration and students can be encapsulated in two simple rules and an explanatory note: 1) Don't hurt or kill innocent people. 2) If you think that something you do might result in innocent people getting hurt or dying, don't do it, even if you have a right to do it. Explanatory note: Follow rule 1 even if someone else breaks rule 2, and the fact that people shouldn't be breaking rule 1 doesn't mean it's okay to break rule 2. Yale gets it. Too many others don't."
This is the "Fighting Words" doctrine that, in the past, was used to justify suppression of free speech (see Terminiello).But as Kurt Westergaard notes, there was no deliberate attempt, out of the blue, to rile up anybody, just an experiment, to see if in the advanced Western state of Denmark, Danes attempting to exercise, in their own country, their own right of free speech, would be allowed to do so, or would be subject to threats, intimidation, economic boycotts, cuts in diplomatic relations, and actual attacks on Danish people abraod -- all of which occurred, and occurred quite a few months after the cartoons appeared in Jyllands-Posten, when local Muslims decided to make an issue of it, and to teach the Danes who was boss and what the rules of the game were, now that Muslims had been (foolishly) allowed to live in large numbers in the Western world, including Denmark.
What is most remarkable, however, about Matthew Ellison's last paragraph is this assertion:
"2) If you think that something you do might result in innocent people getting hurt or dying, don't do it, even if you have a right to do it."
He is turning things on their head. There is always the chance, given the fanaticism of so many Musliims, and given what Islam inculcates -- would Matthew Ellison care to find out, and then care to tell, his Yale audience what Islam does inculcateabout Muhammad, the Model of Conduct (uswa hasana) and the Perfect Man (al-insan al-kamil), and then to list some of the things about Muhammad -- the Banu Qurayza, Asma bint Marwan, the Khaybar Oasis, Abu Akaf, and of course little Aisha -- that make a Western eyebrow rise, and certainly would begin to worry people if, indeed, Muhammad is regarded by a bilion people as the Perfect Man, to be emulated through time and across space.
And perhaps Matthew Ellison can go further. Perhaps he can explain how this view of Muhammad, and the fanaticism with which Muslms attempt to suppress all criticism of him, and will continue to do so, through all manner of means, including death threats and the carrying out of those threats, as Theo van Gogh learned in his last moments. Does Matthew Ellison think anything at all, any right at all, is worth defending, if anywhere at all, an "innocent" life might be lost? His way is madness. His way would have prevented the Allies from fighting World War II, a war in which the Allies no doubt killed hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, in a war to stop Hitler and Japanese militarism which, had they succeeded, would have transformed much of the world into a slave state, or rather two slave empires, with untellable consequences for all who did not belong to either of the two Master Races.
Matthew Ellison is a fool, but he's also about 20 years old. If he remains a fool in five years, or in ten, it will be more worrisome. He still has time to recover his wits. But what of the older people at Yale, who are forty and fifty and sixty, and who, in and out of the Adminstration, nod their heads gravely, and view with quiet satisfaction the nauseating nonsense of young Matthew Eliison? For them there is no hope of moral redemption or mental clarity. They must be pushed out. The alumni can do it, simply by withholding all donations until such people are pushed out, with or without mea culpas. And it is the same everywhere,for the beating heart of the modern university, such as it is, is the Development Office. No more arguments, nothing but denial of money. That is all that wil work. Do it, alumni.. Deny.
Only thus.

This is Matthew Ellison, the 20-year-old fool. I came across your post, and I appreciate the criticism. I will concede one point. Rule 2 is a bit too general (although I don't think it would have necessarily prevented the Allies from fighting in WWII, as one could argue that the Germans and Japanese were already killing many innocent people and we were fighting to minimize innocent lives lost). But you are right in that there may be times when we value something so much that we are willing to risk the lives of ourselves and others to fight for it. My main point is that you shouldn't do something that risks the loss of innocent life unless you have a really, really good reason to do so. As I argue earlier in the column, publishing an inflammatory cartoon that didn't make any new arguments, while within the rights of its author, was not a good enough reason to risk the lives of innocent people.

So, Mr Ellison, you object to the publication of cartoons, but do not object to a religion that makes people kill over cartoons? You write as if the "loss of innocent life" were an automatic consequence of offensive cartoons, and as if murder is a natural and appropriate response. Yet Christians, Jews and atheists do not respond in this way.
Publishing satirical, even offensive cartoons is what happens in the free West. Those who murder in response are 100% responsible for their actions. The blood is on their hands and theirs alone. Why should free men and women alter their behaviour in order to pander to a primitive and violent religion?
Perhaps you don't know very much about Islam. When I was twenty I knew nothing of it. But one thing you do know is that its adherents kill over cartoons. Ever wondered why? Since you have taken the trouble to visit this site, you are very welcome to read some of the articles and find out. Please do so - you may be surprised.

Let me vary the hypothetical, as they like to say in law schools. Abortion doctors are bound to provoke a certain nuimber of fanatics who will try to attack those doctors and their clinics. That means that the existence of abortion clinics inevitably will lead to a loss of "innocent life."?For that matter, almost any large-scale construction project -- say, Boston's Big Dig -- almost certainly will entail the loss of "innocent life." The loss of "innocent life" is all around us. So what we do is figure out when that loss is worth it. I think it perverse, given how hard it was, over many centuries, to achieve the kind of mental freedom we now possess, and the rights that allow Western man to exercise, to express, that mental freedom.?
You, apparently, do not. Perhaps it is mere loyalty to Yale, a desire to rally round the besieged administrators whom many -- see in particular the fillip delivered to YUP by the talented translator of the classics, Sarah Ruden,who in furious indignation has decided not to be published any more by Yale (see here: http://chronicle.com/blogPost/After-Controversy-Yale-U/8060/ -- and a particularly piquant aspect of her public dismay is that Sarah Ruden is not some easily-dismissed enthusiast of the glenn-becks of this world, but someone who spent ten years teaching in a black township in South Africa. Top that, Levin and Lorimer and all the others angling at Yale or elsewhere for the Arab dollars.
Here's a line of inquiry I'd like someone -- perhaps Matthew Elliison will take it up himself -- and that is the Stimson Fellows at Yale. Who was it who a few years ago gave such a fellowship to Raymond Close, the man who retired early from the C.I.A. (he was Station Chief in Jiddah, or was it Riyadh?) to go into business with two Saudis, and later ended up deep in the BCCI scandal. His louche life did not prevent him from being selected as a Stimson Fellow -- I think those who are choosing the Fellows deserve a close look, to see exactly what is going on. Why don't you, Matthew Ellison, do some investigative reporting on the influence of Arabs and Arab, especially Saudi and Emirati money, that given, that working behind the scenes, that dangled in front of Yale administrators as a future possibility if they only play their cards right (as in the case of Jytte Klausen's book) and lay the whole thing out for the world to see, in the Yale Daily News.
Meanwhile, why don't you pull up a chair and set a spell. Something of interest may appear, not necessarily about that boring subject Islam. And the Musical Interludes are very good.

Mary and Hugh,
I am very critical of those Muslims who committed violent acts in response to the cartoons. Read the entire column (your posts didn't include the parts where I criticized them quite harshly). And I recognize that there is a very violent strain of Islam that poses a real threat to the West and wants very badly to end our way of life. But in publishing a cartoon that tars all Muslims as terrorists, we needlessly offend the vast majority of Muslims who are not terrorists (thus making the claim that all Muslims are terrorists a potential self-fulfilling prophecy) and spur the ones who are already extremists to commit violent acts that result in the deaths of innocent people. And for what? To make an argument that has already been made in a less inflammatory form? I don't think it's worth it.
1 Oct 2009
Matthew Ellison
Additionally, just in response to some of Hugh's points:
As I conceded, I formulated that rule rather clumsily, and I generally agree with your formulation. I think where we differ is in whether publishing the cartoons was worth the loss of human life. For the reasons indicated above, I don't think it was.
I took Levin, Lorimer, and Donatich at their word. If you are correct in that the motive was to "angle for Arab dollars" (which I really don't think it was), then what they did would obviously be condemnable.
I am unaware of the case of Raymond Close. If in fact what you say is true and that there is no other side of the story that paints him in a better light, I agree with you that he should not have been honored by Yale.
My column did not praise every decision Yale has ever made. It praised a specific decision made by the administration and a specific decision made by the Muslim Students Association.

There's a movement brewing on the Stratford campus of Rowan University's School of Osteopathic Medicine.
Groups of students who will eventually graduate as D.O.s — doctors of osteopathic medicine — are reaching out to community members to promote the newly opened free Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine clinic and to spread awareness of the osteopathic philosophy.
"We are physicians, we are your regular doctors," said Sameer Sood, a second-year medical student and the clinic's co-founder. "We have an extra set of tools."
Osteopathic doctors are a little like body detectives.
A doctor might be quick to prescribe pain medications for a patient with back pain. Sood said students at the School of Osteopathic Medicine are taught to work backwards from the pain to uncover the root of the discomfort.
Back pain, he said, might stem from a misalignment of the hips, one leg that's longer than the other, or even a problem with the kidneys.
Since the clinic's grand opening last weekend, Sood and his colleagues — all of whom are overseen by an attending doctor — have examined 48 patients. A handful of those patients have been firefighters, a group the students have been targeting for free services.
"Our first outreach is to people in the community who serve — firefighters, police officers and nurses," Sood, 23, said. "These are people who are on their feet a lot and do physical labor ... our goal is to serve those who serve."
Students have met with local fire departments in Stratford and Lindenwold, pitching the free services that could plug holes in health care issues for first responders.
According to Sood, fire officials continually see firemen who don't realize they've suffered a minor injury during a fire call until the adrenaline has worn off hours, maybe days, later. Once the firefighter has left the scene, it's difficult to prove the firefighting activity caused the injury. Insurance sometimes won't cover treatment.
At Rowan SOM's free clinic "they can come in for peace of mind or for treatment," Sood said.
Every first and third Saturday of the month, the clinic as 12 openings for free services.

State Police say they've recovered a second body in the search for three goose hunters who went missing last weekend in the marshlands of Cumberland County.
The body of 59-year-old Zdzislaw "Jerry" Piorkowski of Philadelphia was found at about 12:50 p.m. Friday on a tributary of Back Creek in Fairfield Township.
The site is more than half a mile from where the hunters' boat was found Sunday night.
Friends say Piorkowski, Jan Toryf and Jozef Karamuz had set out last Saturday afternoon to hunt geese and were expected to return home that night.
Authorities began a search the next day.
Toryf's body was found that night. The search for Karamuz is continuing.

William McTaggart (Scottish, 1835 - 1910)
McTaggart's land and seascapes reflect his fascination with nature and man's relationship with it. His bold colours and vigorous brushwork find parallels in Impressionist painting, although essentially form part of a distinct Scottish tradition. They also echo qualities in paintings by Constable and Turner, whom he admired. McTaggart was born on the Mull of Kintyre and returned there frequently from his studio in Glasgow and later from his home in Broomieknow, just outside Edinburgh. He trained in Edinburgh at the Trustees' Academy and enjoyed early success when elected as an Associate of the Royal Scottish Academy aged twenty-four.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A field of six candidates should have made the Democratic primary race for Cuyahoga County executive a lively and competitive affair.
But that has not been the case.
By most accounts, State Rep. Armond Budish became the frontrunner shortly after he declared his candidacy a little over a year ago, and none of his fellow Democrats has been able to gain much ground since. Barring a huge upset, many expect Budish to win easily on May 6.
So what happened? Longtime political strategists told the Northeast Ohio Media Group that problems with money, strategy and organization hampered the campaigns of former Cuyahoga County Sheriff Bob Reid and Ohio Sen. Shirley Smith. Some of the others have done little or no traditional campaigning.
Meanwhile, potentially formidable candidates early on in the race opted not to run. That included former Cuyahoga County Treasurer Jim Rokakis and University Circle Inc. President Chris Ronayne. Both considered running before removing their names from consideration, citing work commitments.
The result: Budish, a former Ohio House Speaker and minority leader has played it safe, running an under-the-radar campaign in a race geared toward party insiders.
"I think the other candidates were boxed in by a lack of positioning and resources, and [Budish] is like a horse coasting in the lead," said Bill Burges, a local political consultant.
Mary Anne Sharkey, another consultant, said the other candidates "didn't have the money, they didn't have the influence, and they didn't have the organization behind them the way that Armond did."
Besides Budish, the candidates are: (Related: Find out more about the candidates and their positions on issues at our voter's guide)
• Former North Olmsted Mayor Thomas O'Grady, 59. O'Grady is a retired U.S. Army officer who works as an administrator for Cleveland city schools. He has not served in elected office since he was defeated for re-election in 2009. He lost his most recent mayoral bid by a 3-1 margin last November. He surprised many by filing to run for county executive in February, shortly before a candidate deadline.
• Former Cuyahoga County Sheriff Bob Reid, 62. Reid is a former longtime Bedford city manager and police chief who was appointed county sheriff in 2009, replacing disgraced former Sheriff Gerald McFaul. Cuyahoga County Executive Ed FitzGerald fired Reid in 2013. Reid has said he suspects his firing was politically motivated.
• Walter Allen Rogers, Jr., 72. Rogers is an artist and has never held elected office.
• Tim Russo, 46, a blogger/activist. Russo is a former Democratic political consultant whose career was derailed in 2002 after he pleaded guilty to felony importuning for soliciting sex from what he thought was a 13-year-old boy. He served four months of probation.
• Ohio Sen. Shirley Smith, 63. Smith is a term-limited state senator and former state representative who has been in the legislature since 1999. She is also a former brand manager for Coca-Cola.
Reid was the first to enter the race and has run the most visible campaign. But for the factors mentioned below, he and the other challengers are likely vying at best for a second-place finish.
So what happened? Let's hone in on some key areas of the campaign.
1. Endorsements
In primary elections, which tend to have lower voter turnout, it's important to gain support from people and groups who can get voters to the polls.
Reid and Smith each have some endorsements, but few from people with countywide influence. Reid's are concentrated in southeastern Cuyahoga County, and Smith's are from council members on Cleveland's East Side, where she lives, and East Cleveland.
The day he officially declared his candidacy, Budish received an endorsement from Cuyahoga County Executive Ed FitzGerald, who decided to run for governor rather than seek re-election. He then gained influential endorsements on both sides of the Cuyahoga River. That eventually landed him the endorsement from the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party.
Burges said Budish was able to cash in on relationships with local Democrats that he formed across the county when he served as Ohio House speaker and House Minority leader.
"When he was speaker he was admired as a fair-minded person by a really diverse audience … and I just think he knows how to build a coalition," he said.
2. Money
Money isn't everything in local elections – plenty of well-financed candidates have turned out losers on Election Day. But if Reid and Smith wanted to counter Budish's built-in advantages and gain name recognition, they needed to raise enough money for an advertising blitz.
It largely hasn't happened – Reid, who had never run for office before, raised about $26,000 ($100 in 2014). Smith raised about $55,000.
Compare that to Budish, who raised $603,000. O'Grady, Russo and Rogers did not report raising or spending any money.
As longtime local political consultant Jerry Austin put it: "They don't have any name recognition, and don't have the means to get any."
3. Strategy
Much of Reid's campaign strategy hinged on gaining the endorsement from the county Democratic Party. Reid and his wife set out to knock on doors and speak to each of the 500-odd members of the party's executive committee members.
He hoped to win support by emphasizing his experience as a former sheriff and longtime Bedford city manager and police chief. After it became clear that Budish was pulling away, Reid and Smith focused on blocking an endorsement.
But that didn't work out. Budish won the endorsement in a landslide with 382 votes. Reid received 68 votes, and Smith 46.
Some have pegged Smith as an upset candidate, in part because she is the only black woman in a race full of white men. Her campaign biography emphasizes her work as a legislator focusing on criminal justice issues, including a comprehensive 2011 sentencing reform bill.
After spending $31,400 this year, much of which went to buy signs and mail political literature, Smith reported having $166 left in her campaign account last week.
Meanwhile, Budish does not seem to view Smith as enough of a threat that he should tap into his sizable campaign war chest to buy television or radio commercials.
In the absence of advertising or endorsements, neither Reid nor Smith has had a particularly active online presence. (It doesn't help that Smith has two nearly identical campaign websites -- shirleysmithforcountyexecutive.com and shirleysmith.us -- one of which has a blank section to describe her vision for the county.)
Neither has attempted to attract media coverage by staging events, or by consistently issuing press releases or attending public meetings.
Marty Zanotti, the former Parma mayor who helped design the new county government that created the county executive position, said the lack of competitiveness in the race is a letdown.
"The fact that our first county executive really left halfway through his first term and this government is just in its infancy stages, it's very disappointing not to hear more meaningful discussion on issues," he said.
Those issues will likely come after the primary. Republican County Councilman Jack Schron will have the resources to make for an active race. But he faces his own uphill battle in a county dominated by Democratic politics.

Nicolò dell'Abate
Italy, France
between 1509 and 1512 - 1571
Nicolo dell' Abate was an Emilian painter active in Modena, Bologna and ultimately the Fontainebleau of Henry II of France, where he worked with his compatriot, the equally gifted Primaristocrataticcio. He was associated with, rather than central to, the mannerist movement which was virtually a European court style in the first half of the sixteenth century. It was in the newly independent genre of landscape that dell' Abate made his most enduring contribution to the history of Western art. His classically inspired landscapes are staffed by elegant figures and typified by pastoral themes pre-empting those of Poussin and Claude. In portraiture dell' Abate was a canny observer of the interior life of his subjects, managing to suggest something of the uniqueness of their psychology. The north Italian aristocrat portrayed here has an almost indecisive air at odds with his masterful pose and sporty regalia. Dell' Abate clearly empathised with this equivocal quality, which he so subtly translates into paint.

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- Alexandra Tomlinson's goal knotted the first game at 1, but Colorado State scored four answered goals to take a 5-1 lead and never look back en route to a 6-3 victory over Wagner College at the Lancer Invite on Friday.
Nicole Maichrowicz scored in the third quarter and Tomlinson added another tally in the fourth, but it wasn't enough for the Seahawks.
Nine different players scored goals in the second contest as Wagner took an 8-2 lead at halftime and a 13-2 advantage after three quarters during a 15-4 triumph over Azusa Pacific.
Tomlinson finished with four goals while Sara Olguin added a hat trick. Lauren French contributed two goals while Lauren Lovallo, Chelsea Beck, Molly Robinson, Natalie Pyrz, Dana DeCinque and Rebecca Hannings also had solo tallies.
The Seahawks (6-8 overall) will be back in action Saturday with games against Claremont and Fresno Pacific.

One team did what it usually does during tournament time, while the other can take solace in there are probably better days ahead.
Minnechaug Regional advanced to the semifinals of the Western Massachusetts Division II boys lacrosse final Saturday following a 13-4 victory over West Springfield in Wilbraham.
Minnechaug gets a date with its biggest rival, Longmeadow. The Falcons and Lancers meet in the semifinals Tuesday night at 7 at Agawam High School.
Minnechaug got there by playing its usual tough brand of defense. The Falcons held the Terriers to only one second-half goal.
Even though the Terriers play in the Valley League, which is not as strong as the Valley Wheel, the Falcons weren't about to take them - or any team for that matter - lightly.
"Any team can win this tournament," declared Minnechaug coach Russ Mooney.
Minnechaug established itself early, scoring four times in the first quarter and five times during the second for a 9-3 lead at intermission.
The Terriers (11-8) had the best season in program history, winning their first Valley League title.
"I'm proud of this team," Charles said. "We expect to be better next season because we only lose two players."
Minnechaug was led by Alex Lagodich. He scored four goals and set up another.
"We knew it was going to be a challenge and we had to play hard," Lagodich said.
Chris Gagliarducci scored three goals and set up two others.
Longmeadow 15, E. Longmeadow 6: Kyle Smith scored five goals to eclipse the 400-point mark for the Lancers.
Smith, who has 404 career points, became only the third player in state history to do so, joining Jim Connolly (North Andover) and Max Quinzani (Duxbury). Nikko Sierra scored two goals and tied his career-high for assists with four as the Lancers snapped a 5-5 halftime tie with a 10-1 run over the final two quarters.
Kyle Smith scored five goals and Garrertt Gagne added two.
Agawam 14, Northampton 13: It doesn't get much closer than this.
Regulation couldn't settle Saturday's Western Massachusetts high school girls lacrosse quarterfinal between Northampton and Agawam. Neither could the two three-minute overtimes.
It came down to sudden victory, where the team that gains possession first usually ends it. Host Agawam did just that, as Carin Wagner scored off feed from Cori Geiger only 23 seconds into the session to give the Brownies a thrilling victory and a semifinal meeting with Minnechaug on Tuesday.
"In all these years, I've never even gone into overtime play," said Carla Lemnah-Warner, Agawam's ninth-year coach. "I think this is an indication of where girls lacrosse in this area is rising up to."
Cori Geiger, who had two goals and five assists, controlled the draw to open the final period and made a nice pass to Wagner, who put away her fourth goal of the game.
Northampton had a golden chance in the closing seconds of regulation, when Agawam goalie Ashley Cross (seven saves) was forced to the sidelines for an infraction. That gave Bridget Szawlowski a free-position chance on an open net, but her shot sailed over the net.
Emily King led the Blue Devils with seven goals, while Jenny Long played very well with eight saves.
Morgan Lockwood led the Brownies with five goals.
E. Longmeadow 13, S. Hadley 12: Katie Wrona made 12 saves to help the Spartans.
Liane Moses scored five goals and set up another for the 9-7-1 Spartans. Maura Stetkiewicz added three goals and an assist.
The Spartans trailed, 4-0 during the opening 10 minutes of the game. They trailed, 12-11 with 3:56 remaining when Moses scored both the tying and winning goals.
Kelly Tierney scored five goals for South Hadley.
Division III
Frontier 5, Westfield Voc-Tech 4: Eric Abramson rapped a double down the left field line to score Chris Williams and Stephen Wojtowicz with the tying and winning runs in the last half of the 13th inning as the Red Hawks escaped the visit from the tough Tigers.
"I've been coaching the team for 23 years, and this was one of the best games I had the privilege to be involved with," veteran Tigers coach Clem Fucci said.
Lucas Cimino went the distance for Voc-Tec, allowing 10 hits, walking five and striking out 19, while Rob Sjodahl pitched six innings of one-run in relief of Gary Grandonico to get the win.
Division II
Hoosac 6, S. Hadley 5: Hoosac rallied for three runs in the last of the seventh to edge South Hadley and earn a trip to Belchertown Monday for a quarterfinal game against Belchertown.
Pioneer 10, Franklin Tech 9: Third-seeded Pioneer (16-5) scored six in the last of the sixth and two more in the last of the seventh to erase a 9-2 deficit and survive against 14th-seeded Franklin Tech (11-10) in first-round play.
Joe Penniman had a hit and two RBIs. Alex Towne, Jared Towne and John Keir added a hit and an RBI apiece.

The lead singer for the Grammy-nominated heavy metal band GWAR was found dead in his Richmond, Va. home Sunday evening.
Dave Brockie, 50, went by the stage name Oderus Urungus and founded the band in 1984.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch is reporting that police don't suspect foul play at this time. An autopsy will determine cause of death.
According to the report, Richmond police were called to Brockie's residence in the 4800 block of West Seminary Ave at around 6:53 p.m. Sunday. Officers found Brockie dead inside.
GWAR's manager, Jack Flanaganm confirmed Brockie's death in a statement to Metal Hammer magazine.
"It is with a saddened heart, that I confirm my dear friend Dave Brockie, artist, musician, and lead singer of GWAR passed away ….," he stated in part. His body was found Sunday by his band mate at his home in Richmond, Va.
"My main focus right now is to look after my band mates and his family. More information regarding his death shall be released as the details are confirmed."
GWAR released its 13th album in 2013 and had recently returned to the United States from a small tour in Japan. The band is known for its elaborate horror-inspired costumes and graphic stage shows.
The group's lead guitarist Cory Smoot, 34, was found dead inside the band's tour bus in 2011. He died from a heart attack caused by coronary heart disease.

Residents have returned to a building at the Rose Villa Senior Living complex in Oak Grove that was evacuated after nine staff members began coughing uncontrollably.
Brandon Paxton, Clackamas Fire District 1 spokesman, said firefighters determined that a resident had pepper spray on his clothing.
"There was enough of it in the air that it caused irritation to staff members," Paxton said. "The staff is now working to determine how the resident came to have pepper spray on his clothing."
Staff members called emergency dispatchers around 10:35 a.m. after reports that nine staff members had suffered respiratory distress. Paxton said firefighters arriving at the complex, 13505 S.E. River Road, south of Milwaukie, evacuated the building and began searching for the source of the problem.
The nine staff members were evaluated at the scene by firefighter-paramedics and declined to be taken to the hospital.

Al, Your comments on "modularization proposals" are fascinating. I've had similar ideas about ways to reorganize the guidelines, but the detail of your proposal is at least an order of magnitude beyond mine. So much beyond, in fact, that I'd rate my comprehension of your comments at 50% at best. Is there any chance that you could provide some sort of exegesis? Some of the details have eluded me, and I really want to feel that I have this down cold. What say you? Chas. MunatReceived on Tuesday, 21 August 2001 13:48:05 UTC

Adv - so if I'm hearin' ya right, you bought the box of low-fat cookies, liked them so much you ate the whole box and now you need help so you don't eat the box? Sounds like me a few years ago!
Here is what I'd suggest personally - your portion size is a little out of whack. You may need to weigh/measure your food based on a suggested caloric intake.
What's causing the binges? Are you not eating to satiety which is causing this? I'd recommend eating larger meals with plenty of protein and fat so that your belly is full and not prone to the binges.
That's my take - good luck.

An entire section of concrete soffits from one side of the 33-story World Trade Center building broke off and crashed nearly 400 feet early Monday morning onto a grassy area and sidewalk in the heart of the city's tourist area. No one was injured, but the incident raises questions about deferred maintenance and public safety at the vacant building, which has been the subject of several unsuccessful redevelopment efforts since 1998.
The city owns the building, the nation's original World Trade Center, through the New Orleans Building Corp. The World Trade Center organization, a private economic development group that promotes trade, has a lease on the building through 2019.
Greg Beuerman, a spokesman for the group, said the World Trade Center organization is responsible for the maintenance, upkeep and operations of the building.
Beuerman said the incident happened around 7 a.m. When the city learned of the mishap, it sent a building inspector from the Department of Safety and Permits to the site, said Ryan Berni, a spokesman for Mayor Mitch Landrieu. The trade group also sent out a forensic engineer.
"We're awaiting those reports, " Berni said Monday afternoon. "It appears as though it was an external part of the building, and not structural. We hope to know more later today."
Monday's incident wasn't the first time there was a problem with the facade. Beuerman said that about seven to ten years ago, concrete from the second story fell about 30 feet into a loading dock area. He did not know of any further incidents or what steps were taken at that time.
Berni said the city was combing through safety and permit records to see whether there had been other problems.
On Monday, piles of concrete, wire mesh and metal stays lay in a line on the grass on the side of the building facing the Hilton, the city's largest hotel.
In the morning, the city temporarily closed the stretch of road between Harrah's New Orleans Casino and the World Trade Center and put up police barricades, while workers picked up the sections of concrete. Late Monday, city and World Trade Center officials were evaluating what they had learned to determine whether a fence needed to remain around the building.
"That's under discussion right now, " Beuerman said. "Our first priority is public safety and making sure there's no risk, no hazard to the community."
Building's fate up in the air
The city has been trying, without success, since 1998 to redevelop the historic World Trade Center building, considered a key location on the city's riverfront at the foot of Canal and Poydras streets. The World Trade Center organization, the last tenant at the building, moved to nearby Canal Place in March 2010.
Late last year, the Landrieu administration struck a deal with the trade group to buy out its lease for $2 million so the city would be free to explore options for redeveloping the building or tearing it down.
The deal was approved by the boards of the New Orleans Building Corp. and the World Trade Center organization last month, and the city council is scheduled to vote on that agreement on Thursday.
Beuerman said that he is not qualified to comment on engineering matters and whether the falling concrete could have been the result of deferred maintenance over the 13 years that the building has been in play. Larry Boudreaux, the chief operating officer of the trade group, was meeting with the engineer late Monday and was unavailable to respond to the question.
Monday's incident could accelerate discussions about the fate of the building.
Strategically important site
In early 2010, Sean Cummings, who led redevelopment efforts under the Nagin administration as director of the New Orleans Building Corp., recommended that the city consider demolishing the building. World Trade Center officials and preservationists were cool to the idea.
The 670,760-square-foot, X-shaped building, constructed in 1967, has proven difficult to convert from office space to a hotel or condominiums because of its unusual floor plan. Previous proposed deals from the Morial and Nagin administrations were also complex, with rent payments to the city and the trade club continuing to occupy several floors of the building. Cummings, who oversaw plans for redeveloping the New Orleans riverfront, said that demolishing the building would open up a wider set of possibilities.
"I've long said that I think the building has some real problems and that it's functionally obsolete. It should come down and make way for a remarkable 21st century building, " Cummings said Monday. "For all the great things that governments do, being a landlord isn't one of them."
Once a deal is approved, Berni said, the city will hold public meetings on what should happen to the property, and will solicit proposals for redevelopment ideas.
Mark Romig, chief executive of the New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corp., said the city is lucky that the incident happened at a time of day when few pedestrians and motorists were in the area. "I know that the city is taking steps to secure the site so it doesn't create any further issues, " he said.
Romig wouldn't say whether he thought the building should be demolished, but he said the site is strategically important to the tourism industry, and urged the city to move quickly on plans. "It has been in the planning stages for a while. Something needs to be taken care of now, " Romig said.

'Never give up — you may be five feet from gold'
- published_in
- What's Working
Gordon Nuttall is currently president and CEO of a Fort Collins-based Colorado C-corporation now known as Couragent. In 2010, working as Rocky Mountain Ventures Co., he and his team released their first product, the Flip-Pal mobile scanner. The patented technology allows photos to be scanned in their albums or frames to create digital images that can be shared and preserved.
Prior to this venture, Gordon worked as program manager at Hewlett-Packard for 32 years. Couragent creates patented solutions that are designed for simplicity.
Q: You completed your first product, the Flip-Pal, in just 9 months. How in the world did you do that?
A: We have a tremendously talented and experienced team that worked well with our supplier. It was the flawless execution on the first design that allowed us to launch just 9 months after winning the Colorado Inventors Showcase Consumer Product of 2009 award. Thanks to new Web 2.0 technologies, we were able to offer our product directly to consumers quickly, at a low cost.
Q: What have been some of the highlights of your venture?
A: We have much to be thankful for at Couragent, but one thing that stands out was getting on the Home Shopping Network and selling out. The team was cheering as we watched the show together. I hear a lot of companies work years to get a shot with HSN. After the initial hard legwork by our sales manager, the product sold itself to the HSN execs. Actually, there were two groups at HSN who both wanted to host us. That show was just one month from the start of Flip-Pal shipments in October. Another highlight is being featured as a Second Act in Money magazine.
Q: Tell me about your initial funding efforts.
A: Initially, we pursued angel funding. It was 2008 and a horrible time to be out trying to raise funding for a new startup. So instead of going after a few big investors, we put our energy into finding many small investors using private placements. It was more work, but we raised $342,000 in just over 12 months from 26 private investors in Northern Colorado.
Q: So, today, with your new company, what are you most worried about in terms of risk?
A: Getting sufficient funding to do the right amount of marketing on current products, and then timing the development of new products. At this point in our evolution, our growth is limited mostly by available capital. I pay lots of attention to cash flow. The other area I pay attention to is maintaining the culture while growing rapidly. Our members are so jazzed about what they are doing; it's easy to lose work-life balance.
Q: How did you get to initially sell your first product?
A: We picked the scrapbooking community as our head bowling pin, and it has opened the door to other segments, like genealogy. Our main objective has been to hit that headpin dead on, and leverage the momentum. We go to a lot of events and that's where we find people who become affiliates, thought leaders, and resellers. Once we demo our Flip-Pal, customers come up with new and novel ways they would be able to use it and who they are going to tell about it, which shows the multiplier factor of the head pin.
Q: How do you personally gauge if Courgent is successful?
A: Guy Kawasaki's book, "Enhancement," has a section called "Do something DICEE" — Deep, Intelligent, Complete, Empowering, Elegant. When we attend events and see the great reaction from our customers, we know we are on the DICEE track of enriching lives. The testimonials and blogs we get are a great gauge of our success.
Q: What's behind the new name for your company?
A: One of the most impactful books I have read is "Courage: The Backbone of Leadership" by Gus Lee. That forms the foundation of who we are and how we behave as a company. Gus outlines three levels of values, and Couragent strives for that third level, which sets the character values of integrity and courage as the highest level. That's where our name comes from. Courage-nt is for our first value — Courage — and Cour Agent means that we are Agents of Heart. From there, we then created our set of core values which I call, "C-I-C-I-C". C is for Courage, I is for Integrity, C is for Collaboration, I is for Innovation, and the final C is for Care.
The first value is courage. To make proper decisions, don't act out of fear. That doesn't mean that you don't feel fear, or you ignore it, but courage is a decision to go past that fear. It also implies courageous communications. Integrity and courage go hand-in-hand.
I call Collaboration our 'middle-C' value since it sets the reference point for the others, like the middle-C on a keyboard. Rather than competition, I've observed better results come from collaboration. It is very important to innovation, probably more than being smart. I know my ideas are oftentimes half-baked, but in our safe and open culture, ideas build on each other by listening and talking.
Finally, there is Care. For us, this is closely related to giving back, gratefulness and paying forward. At the end of every day when we can say we are living our character values, I figure that to be another gauge of success.
Q: Any final thoughts?
A: There were times where I was ready to give up, but the thought that gold was just five feet away kept us going one step at a time when there were no guarantees.

"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" to show the Consequences of Girls Just Asking to get Raped.
It's Christmastime once again, and with that, the bounties of Satan's harvest out of Hollywood. Last year he struck hard with Black Swan and I Love You Philip Morris and there is no reason to think this year won't be worse. He will not relent, and we know that now is the time when we as God's people must pray death and destruction down on his entertainment harem.
Yet, even so, God's word truly does shine through the darkness. That's why I am excited to see the release of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo in just a couple weeks. Although the worldly plot centers around a 40 year old cold case of a murdered girl, I'm more interested to see its depiction of the whore of Babylon herself, Lisbeth Salander who, yes, has a dragon inked on her shoulder. (Could Satan be more obvious?!)
You'll verily be tempted into thinking this girl, with lesbianic tendencies, was born into an abusive house, abandoned by family and governments– all to provide some kind of "excuse" for her sinful, vile nature. DON'T BE FOOLED! She is a harlot of harlots, choosing the abased sexual orientation and even sexing for money! But Christians, rejoice, the film makers have made a mistake of showing the consequences of her horrible decisions.
Not only does the creature of the night live a life of unhappiness and despair, she and other characters are punished for their sexual iniquities. Acting slutty? You're going to get raped. Acting inquisitive? You're going to get raped. Acting superior to males? You're going to get raped. I wonder how Satan allowed his dark servants to preserve such a positive message for young people in this film which is sure to be viewed by millions.
With some editing and colorful Powerpoint presentations, I believe we can use this weapon intended for evil as a tool for God's Kingdom. By telling our young girls, and the effeminate boys who most assuredly are destined for hell, that there actions have consequences through the use of graphic bloody pictures accompanied with Bible verses we can spread God's love through this most wonderful time of the year.
Unfortunately, Dragon Tattoo Girl fails to provide any other Godly message. The remaining story is filled with drugs, murder, homosexuality, socialism, left-wing media liberals, sorcery, adultery, redistribution of wealth, and science.
We must abstain from buying tickets, and let all of our church members know that any person who sees this film has been subjected to the whims of Satan listed above… Except for those men looking to learn more about lesbians, just because their curious, nothing big, you know.

BOSTON -- Doc Rivers looked down at the box score and started reading off what he thought was Jordan Crawford's stat line. It sounded reasonably efficient.
"Six for nine (shooting), you know? If he makes six and takes three bad shots, I'll live with that," the Boston Celtics coach said after Friday's loss to Cleveland.
But he was accidentally looking at Shavlik Randolph's line. When informed that Crawford actually shot 3-14 from the field, Rivers apologized, then joked: "That's even worse."
Still, his sentiment remained. Overall, he thought Crawford was "pretty good" in scoring seven points.
"The one shot I was upset with was the end of the quarter," Rivers said, presumably referring to the 3-pointer Crawford bricked off the backboard to end the third period, after looking off two open teammates on the same possession.
Possibly discussing the same play, Rivers used a new term that should be used in the NBA lexicon for centuries (or at least until John Wall furthers his impressive quest to make the Wizards respectable):
Term: "A Washington play"
Definition: Something Jordan Crawford (or any former Washington Wizard, really) does, which he might have have gotten away with while playing in anonymity but certainly can't explain while trying to earn playoff minutes.
Usage: "And then he had a Washington play," Rivers said Friday. "He honestly got so upset that they were making a run -- you could visibly see it -- he went and grabbed the ball and said: 'I'm going to make something happen.' That could be with a shot or a pass. And that's being very competitive. That's the one thing we've found about him, is he's competitive off the charts. And that's usually what gets him in trouble."
Crawford has actually shown more playmaking ability than most healthy folks on the Celtics roster. He has a knack for penetrating into the paint, and he can be quite useful when using his evil powers for good. To (somewhat) counteract his miserable shooting Friday, the guard finished with five assists, four rebounds and zero turnovers. The problem is that he also habitually finds trouble, sometimes seeming to prefer one-footed fadeaways to conventional shots on balance.
"He gets deep too much and has nowhere to go," Rivers said. "I just don't want him to get that deep."
The Crawford experience continues to be interesting. That much is certain.

DES LACS - Austin Aberle hardly had to think while his coach installed a 4-4 defensive set at Thursday's morning practice.
When Des Lacs-Burlington coach James Johnson asked his players which gap each of the four linebackers was responsible for in a variety of situations, the senior linebacker responded instantly with the correct answer each time.
"I've been playing defense since I was a freshman," he said. "It just comes naturally."

Des Lacs-Burlington coach James Johnson instructs Tanner Holte (front) and Keenan Browne during a defensive drill at Thursday's practice.
Aberle's No. 1 practice jersey had multiple tears around the shoulders from hits he distributed and received throughout the years. But there was no contact yet. That comes on Saturday.
"Yeah, seriously, I want to suit up, get full-contact going," Aberle said. "It's a lot more fun when it's full-contact."
The players wore shorts along with helmets and shoulder pads. The day started with stretching and a 15-minute conditioning drill before a water break and the installation of the defense.
The set puts eight men in the box and is designed to stop the run. The Lakers - 3-5 in 2011 - return 10 of last year's defensive starters.
"Our philosophy has always been to be able to stop the run first and force teams to pass," said Johnson, who is coaching his 25th year at DL-B.
The 8 a.m. practice was the first of two for the day. Johnson said the second one would focus on offense and special teams.
The Lakers return eight of last year's offensive starters but one of the losses is graduated quarterback Marshall Selfors. In his place steps junior Austin Schestler.
"It drives me a lot," Schestler said. "I really want to lead the team on offense."
DL-B enters these early practices with an eye on long-term goals. The Lakers hope to return to the state playoffs, a place they haven't been since 2009.
They've finished one spot short of postseason play each of the last two years.
"We have nine seniors and their goal is to reach the playoffs," Johnson said. "That's our goal every year."

Teens to get in the spirit of saving lives
By RACHEL BRANT
Staff writer
For the fifth year in a row, the American Red Cross serving King and Kitsap counties strives to teach at least 200 young people life-saving skills.
The American Red Cross is sponsoring a free CPR Saturday for Teens Saturday, Jan. 26 at Kitsap Mall in Silverdale.
CPR Saturday for Teens is geared toward students ages 12 to 18 and will teach participants life-saving cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills.
We keep doing it (CPR Saturday) because the Red Cross feels that there should be one member of every family trained to save lives, said Kelly Finch, American Red Cross volunteer coordinator for the West Sound Service Center.
Finch added that CPR Saturday for Teens is a way to empower teenagers and give them the ability to help others when necessary. Being CPR certified also is good to put on job resumés, according to Finch.
(Teenagers) are a group that really can help in a situation, he said. Theyre young and theyre smart.
About 30 American Red Cross volunteers will teach the teenagers CPR in selected store spaces at Kitsap Mall. Participants will watch a video, demonstrate CPR techniques on mannequins and take a 15-question test. Classes last about two-and-a-half hours. Teenagers who have pre-registered for the event will receive their CPR certification, good for one year, upon successful completion of the physical demonstration and test.
They will get their certification card when they leave if they pre-registered, Finch said.
Participants are encouraged to pre-register for CPR Saturday for Teens by Friday, Jan. 25. If space allows, Finch said they will accept people at the registration table the day of the event.
We encourage people to pre-register. That guarantees them a spot, Finch said. They can come to the site and register, but there is no guarantee at that point.
Classes will be at various times throughout the day. When participants pre-register, they should specify which session they will be attending. Classes are at 8 a.m., 9:30 a.m., 11 a.m., 12:30 p.m. 2 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.
We ask that they arrive at least 15 minutes before their session, Finch said.
Some teenagers have already registered for the event, but Finch said spaces are still available. Call (360) 377-3761 ext. 10205 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com to register.
(Spots) will go fast, but theres plenty available, Finch said. If they want to come out we encourage them to do so.

Saturday, Jan. 26, Kitsap Mall

At a time when the academic job market is looking bleak, we asked career experts and economic forecasters to predict where faculty job growth could come in the next decade. Many agreed that job prospects will be dim because of budget cuts and diminishing faculty pension funds that have made professors less likely to retire. In addition, the growing use of graduate students and adjuncts to teach classes means fewer jobs are available that are secure or financially rewarding.
If the past is any indication, it is difficult to make predictions about the faculty job market. Predictions in the late 1980s of a huge faculty shortage caused by retirements failed to come true. Still, the data suggest that large numbers of academic teaching jobs will open up in the future. Some are expected to be created by enrollment growth; others by the need to replace faculty members hired in the late 1960s and 70s to teach baby boomers.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics has projected that 662,000 faculty jobs will become available from 2006 to 2016 — 382,000 new slots, and 280,000 current jobs expected to open up. Community colleges and other institutions that offer career and technical education are expected to offer many of the new job opportunities.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that the number of postsecondary educational administrators will increase by 14 percent from 2006 to 2016.
"The leadership turnover in education is going to be tremendous in the coming years," said Mark David Milliron, president and chief executive of Catalyze Learning International, an education-consulting group in Newland, N.C. "Folks are scrambling to fill the C-level pipeline; as a result, Ph.D.'s and Ed.D.'s are in high demand, and will be for some time."

The Lucky Duck Bingo in the Midfield Plaza Shopping Center closed more than a week ago after a warning from the sheriff's office, but recently reopened.
The Midfield City Council voted on Aug. 8 to allow the hall to open after it paid the city a $15,000 license fee. Midfield is one of several Jefferson County cities that allow electronic bingo, arguing that a state constitutional amendment gives cities the ability to establish rules for electronic bingo.
However, the city informed the hall at its opening that the license fee would be non-refundable even if the hall was forced to close.

Update: State police have issued an Amber Alert for Cheryl Kozaczek and her 3-month-old daughter.
» Read the story
WESTFIELD – State police have issued an endangered child advisory regarding a 28-year-old city woman who has allegedly taken her 3-month-old daughter for whom she does not have legal custody.
Cheryl E. Kozaczek, of 80 Woodmont St., left her home at approximately 1 a.m. Wednesday with her 3-month-old daughter, Gaebria Kozaczek in a
, according to a release issued by state police.
Kozaczek does not have legal custody of the child. The child's legal guardian is Cheryl Kozaczek's mother, of the same address.
Kozaczek is white, approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall with long brown hair with blonde highlights, often in a ponytail.
When last seen she was wearing a lightweight tan sportcoat, black jeans, and black Army boots with yellow stitches. She may be carrying a large black diaper bag.
The baby weighs approximately 12 pounds and has a full head of brown hair and brown eyes. She was last seen wearing pink and black striped tights with either what is a described as a fluffy top or a pink night shirt.
The truck bears a Westfield State University parking decal.
Kozaczek's whereabouts are unknown. She has previously spent time in California. She will sleep in her vehicle or in hotels. Preliminary information indicates that there may be reason to fear for the child's safety and well-being, state police said.
Westfield police have asked state police to issue an Amber Alert. State police say they are still assessing that request to determine if it meets the criteria for an Amber Alert.
The information has been sent to police departments nationwide, according to state police.
Those with information are urged to call 911 or state police at (508)-820-2121.

SPRINGFIELD – You may not be as rich as Betty White or Leona Helmsley, but you can still set up a trust to care for your dog – or cat or horse or rabbit or parrot – after you are gone.
Don't just assume your children or your friends will keep your canine or feline family member in the manner to which the pets are accustomed, says William Baker, professor at Western New England University School of Law.
Actually, don't assume they will keep them at all, he warns. Instead, consider creating a trust. A new state law took effect in April to allow the formation of trusts for the care of pets after their owners' deaths.
Setting up trusts for pets can also be a lucrative part of a law practice, Baker told an audience of students and others at a recent program on the subject at the law school. The event, hosted by the law school's Animal Law Association, centered on the new law.
In his presentation, Baker cited the case of once-popular British singer Dusty Springfield, whose trust included having her cat Nicholas fed imported baby food and having her records played for him at his bedtime.
The average person, however, can get a lawyer to fashion a more modest trust.
Baker told the prospective lawyers they may not agree with their client's view about animals, but "you have to be aware of their views and tolerate them."
The concept of establishing care of pets after a person dies is normal, but viewpoints on the issue can be highly charged, according to Baker. He said he has heard the view that anyone who does not establish a trust should be put in jail.
Baker took the audience through the ins and outs of setting up such trusts, making it clear that pet owners should seek legal help.
For instance, he said he recommends there be a trustee appointed who is a different person than the caretaker, so the trustee can ensure the caretaker is doing the job.
Baker starts with a list of possible inclusions, such as what sort of "food, exercise, vacations, doggie school" the pet needs.
"If I'm getting a laugh I move away," Baker said, adding that trusts must also address basic needs such as food, shelter and veterinary care.
Actress Betty White, who is also an animal rights advocate, reportedly included a provision in her will which will leave more than $5 million for the benefit of her pets when she dies, according to Baker.
New York Hotel heiress Leona Helmsley, who died in 2007, bequeathed the bulk of her estate, $12 million, to her Maltese dog Trouble. A judge later knocked down the dog's inheritance to $2 million. Trouble died at the age of 12 late last year.
Lawyers will give pet owners more realistic sums that should be set aside, considering such things as life expectancy, medical problems and age of the pet.
"Dogs and cats don't live very long," Baker said, noting that owners should consider that in determining a reasonable amount of money to provide for their care.
"Of course, a tortoise can live for over 100 years," he said, so that is an entirely different matter.

James Cusick
WINDERMERE, Fla. – James F. Cusick, 72, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend died on April 24, 2013 in Windermere, Florida.
Jim was born in Steuben-ville, Ohio on November 8, 1940, the son of James P. and Martha Cusick. He attended The Ohio State University for a year before going into the State Highway Patrol Police Academy, dedicating his professional life to civil service at the Ohio State Highway Patrol for over 30 years.
As Jim went up through the ranks of the Ohio State Patrol, he traveled and worked throughout Ohio – the patrol posts Jim worked at were in Steubenville, Warren, Hiram, Lisbon, Marietta, Athens, and retired as a Captain in Jackson.
Jim enjoyed serving his community. During his time in Jackson, Ohio, Jim supported Jackson High School athletics through fundraising efforts and was a high school wrestling coach (1995-96). While living in Athens, Ohio he was a great fan and friend to Ohio University athletics, supporting many athletes, and was Vice President of the Green and White Club in the early '80s. While in Marietta, he served on various community organizations including the Bi-Centennial celebration committee.
After he retired in 1993, Jim and Eileen spent their life traveling the US and Canada in a motorhome. They enjoyed visiting friends and family and working as a volunteer or part time at various jobs, including John Jarvie Historical Ranch, Badlands National Park, Walt Disney World/Epcot Center/Magic Kingdom, Dworshak Dam Visitors Center and See's Candy.
Jim is survived by his wife of 47 years, Eileen George Cusick from East Liverpool, Ohio, along with his children and their families, Christine (45) and Pete Moore, Colleen (44), Andy and (granddaughter) Loren (4) Williams, Darrick (42) Cusick and Craig (34) and Sandi Cusick.
Jim will be remembered in a private family gathering in a few weeks. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in memoriam of James (Jim) Cusick to MD Anderson Cancer Center, Donations Department, 1400 S Orange Ave, Orlando, Florida 32806 or www.mdanderson.org/gifts.

Jefferson County, along with St. Clair, Blount and several other central Alabama counties, remain under the advisory until 9 a.m. Tuesday. Walker County is under the advisory until 6 a.m. Tuesday.
Some flurries and a mix of rain and snow have fallen in parts of Walker County this afternoon, but so far there's been no accumulation, according to a weather service meteorologist. In fact, there is little chance of any long-lasting snow accumulation anywhere in the Birmingham area, the weather service reported.
A mixture of snow is possible tonight and will transition to all snow after midnight, the weather service reports. The precipitation will taper off from west to east Tuesday morning.
Snowfall could be heavy at times resulting in quick accumulations on elevated and grassy surfaces. Due to warm weather, much of that will melt quickly, however some roads could become "slushy and snow covered" due to persistent snowfall.
The weather service urges motorists to be prepared for slippery roads and to use caution while driving.

Artist Bio
Formed in early 1990 CHAINED AND DESPERATE quickly evolved into something more than "just another extreme band". From the monolithic doom/death metal of their first demo in 1994 ("Grieving for the Lost Sun") to 1996's black/pagan "Oracles From the Neitherworld" and the dark, lyrical black metal first full-length "Eleven Angles in a Circle" (1999), the band soon established its own unique personal style, which, unavoidably, is often compared with their fellow countrymen Rotting Christ as well as others such as Dissection, Enslaved and Primordial. No mistake should be made however; CHAINED AND DESPERATE's style is as original as it can get with the band members' influences ranging from Bathory and Death to Candlemass, Manilla Road and Manowar.
Following a period of intensive writing and rehearsing, in 2009 CHAINED AND DESPERATE entered the Music House Studios in Athens, with producer Stathis Pavlantis and in late 2010 with the recordings and overall production completed, "Divine Authority Abolishment", the band's sophomore release was ready.
Lineup: C.M.Ain - Screams • Panos Chained - guitars • Jim Havok - bass • Kostas Makris - vocals • George Pavlantis - drums & percussion

CARLISLE — For the second consecutive year, municipalities and conservation groups are hoping Cumberland County will pass on to them some of the funds collected by the state from Marcellus Shale drilling impact fees.
Cumberland County Greenway and Open Spaces coordinator Stephanie Williams asked the county commissioners at Thursday's meeting to once again contribute a portion of these funds to the county's Land Partnerships Grant Program.
Funds coming in from the Marcellus Shale Legacy Fund only can be used for limited purposes, and chief among the uses is the funding of green projects. Last year, commissioners gave $340,000 to the Land Partnerships Grant Program.
The program then took applications from municipalities and conservation groups with a myriad of green projects in mind, and chose the best of them to fund with the Marcellus shale money.
"We were able to fund 18 projects last year," Williams told the commissioners.
Some of these projects are now underway, and others have even been completed. South Middleton Township, for example, built a trail connecting parks, and Carlisle completed a playground-improvement project, Williams said.
She told the commissioners that through the collection of Marcellus Shale drilling impact fees in 2013, the state will be disbursing $23 million to counties this year. Of that, Cumberland County is expected to receive about $218,000. Williams said $100,000 has been dedicated to farmland preservation, and she is asking commissioners to use the remaining $118,000 for the Land Partnerships Grant Program.
Jane Mitchell, chairwoman of the Dickinson Township Parks and Recreation Board, said the board was among those that applied for and received funding last year.
"It was a real plus for us," Mitchell said.
With the funds, she said they are putting in a biking and walking trail, and are hoping to use further funding from the grant program to leverage even more money for the development of a park on land near the North Dickinson Elementary School.
The Land Partnerships Grant Program was originally established in 2006 to distribute $1 million to similar projects. That was the only year funding was available, but the county revived the program last year to review projects, determine their worth, and award some of them funding through the new Marcellus shale money.
Commissioners are expected to vote soon on whether to award the funds again to the program.

We've all done it. You ... me ... heck, even Tiger Woods.
It's hard not to. It's way too big of a challenge to pass up.
We put a black-striped golf ball on a rubber tee, take dead aim with our driver, then try and blast a tee shot into the dude driving the golf-ball-picker-upper at our local driving range.
But who is this poor soul being pelted by Pinnacles? And why do we deem it so necessary to try and hit him? And while we're at it, just how many golf balls get hit on a driving range on any given day?
To answer these, and many other important questions, I sought the knowledge of Doug Davis. Once named the best amateur golfer in the state, Davis now is the co-owner and driving range operator at Miles of Golf on Carpenter Road.
Q: So Doug, just how many range balls do you have here at Miles?
A: "We have 54,000 new balls (4,500 dozen), then we add in 25 dozen of two different brands to see how they compare to the balls we selected."
Q: How do you decide what kind of ball Miles uses on the range?
A: "I personally test out the range balls we use. I cut them open with a hacksaw to check their composition, I hit them on the range to test their feel. I even put them on our launch monitor to see how they perform. I run them through the mud, the washer, the tractor and the picker over and over to see how they wear. I truly believe we have the best range balls in the business."
Q: How is the quality of the modern-day range ball?
A: "You'd be surprised how good they are. They're not that far off your high-end tour balls. It takes a real quality ball to last a year on the range."
Q: What's the busiest time of the year for the range?
A: "This time of year is steady, but believe it or not, our busiest days are nice days in February and March, when courses are still closed."
Q: Has the range ever run out of balls?
A: "We've never run out, but one year it hit 67 degrees in February and we had over 50,000 balls plugged (in the snow and mud). We couldn't pick up balls due to the conditions, so we limited golfers to no large buckets."
Q: How many employees does it take to keep 54,000 golf balls circulating?
A: "I hav e a staff of eight pickers. But they do more than just pick up golf balls. They also wash the balls and weed out the damaged ones as well as maintain the equipment, mow grass and top dress the greens."
Q: How many balls get scooped up in one pass by the range picker?
A: "Each picker holds about 3,000 golf balls. We pick up in the evening and make about seven trips to get all the balls."
Q: Do you pick up balls yourself?
A: "I am the main range ball picker in the winter. I enjoy being outside, so I have no qualms about being alone on a tractor."
Q: Why yellow golf balls?
A: "Theft. It's our No. 1 problem. If we had white balls, it would be even worse. We're already down 9,000 balls this years."
Q: Steal range balls? Really?
A: "Sure. Did you know the biggest number of balls they pull out of the pond on the 16th hole at Oakland Hills are range balls? And that's Oakland Hills."
Q: So why do people like to aim for the driving range picker?
A: "Hey, who doesn't like to hit the guy in the driving range cart?"
