Proof That Love Conquers A N Y T H I N G
Been looking for a reason to [maybe, sort of] believe in all of those melodramatic televised romance novels… that we all secretly love to watch? I've got good news for you… which I can guarantee is TRUE, if you consider People Mag a truth-telling source, and if you'll accept that that guarantee holds only for this very moment in time… Jason and Molly from The Bachelor are actually really genuinely into one another. And it turns out that Molly truly welcomes Jason's beautiful beautiful beautiful… beautiful booooyyyy.
What's the proof?
Jason, The Romantic: (I love this part, because it makes so much sense): According to People, a source close to the couple says they've returned to the site of Jason's first proposal… you know, the one to the person he chose over Molly… so that he "can do what he should have done the last time he was here, and ask Molly to marry him." Yeah, that would be my dream proposal scenario.
Whoa, back up, right? Wasn't this relationship doomed for failure around the time that Jason was born a dbag? I guess Molly's public image suffered a self-respect blow around the time that she took him back after he rejected her on national television and proposed to a different person and road-tested the other woman and decided she was too clingy and humiliated her without warning before an audience and then within the same 40 minutes asked Molly if she wanted a piece.
I like to check in on what the masses are thinking when something like this hits the fan… check out People if you want to kill some time with this stuff.

The heroic rescue in Frederick, Md., ended in success. But do the numbers add up?
Consider: It took more than 25 rescue workers from at least five different departments in the area seven hours at a sinkhole trying to rescue the 14-year-old dog — a Lhasa Apso named Samantha that is both blind and deaf. All this, according to the Washington Post.
Following x-rays and a bath at a vet's office, Samantha was no worse for the ordeal. She is now back with her owner at home.
But imagine what this rescue cost taxpayers. Those figures are still coming in.
But that doesn't stop some from barking about the extreme measures taken for the old, blind and deaf dog.
Were responders barking mad to expend that kind of effort?
Rescue techniques responders employed to save the dog included pumping warm air into the hole, monitoring the air flow, and using flexible piping to coax the dog from the deepest part of the hole.
The rescuers also gave the dog toys and food in an effort to try and coax her out, the Post is reporting.
It all began when the dog's owner yelled for help after Samantha fell into the hole, according to a report from WHAG-TV, the NBC affiliate in Western Maryland. Area neighbors heard her, and called 911 for help.
So what do you think?
Did responders do the right thing in bringing out all the stops to rescue the dog?
Or was this a little bow-wow overboard?
Tell us.

Old-time, Folk Music and Dance Take Center Stage at Niles Gallery
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Oct. 17, 2013) — The "Appalachia in the Bluegrass" concert series will continue at the University of Kentucky with programs featuring flatfoot dance and old-time music legends. Taking the stage this week is musician and dancer Phil Jamison and fiddler Jesse Wells on Oct. 18. The following week Sue Massek from the Reel World String Band will perform on Oct. 25. Both free public concerts will take place at noon, at the Niles Gallery, located in the Lucille C. Little Fine Arts Library and Learning Center.
A Flatfoot Tapping Time
Phil Jamison, director of Warren Wilson College's Appalachian Music Program, is nationally known as a dance caller, old-time musician and flatfoot dancer. For over 30 years he has been calling dances, performing and teaching at music festivals and dance events throughout the U.S. and overseas, including 12 years as a member of the Green Grass Cloggers. His flatfoot dancing was featured in the film, "Songcatcher," for which he also served as traditional dance consultant. In addition to music, Jamison also teaches mathematics at Warren Wilson and coordinates the Old-Time Music and Dance Week at the Swannanoa Gathering, the college's summer program in traditional music.
Jesse Wells first learned fiddle from his father Jamie. He graduated with a degree in guitar performance from Morehead State University and now serves as education coordinator for MSU's Center for Traditional Music. Wells is a versatile multi-instrumentalist who has played in a number of old-time, bluegrass and rock bands. He currently plays with the Clack Mountain Stringband and Kentucky Wild Horse. Wells also hosts a Sunday afternoon program of old-time and bluegrass music on WMKY 90.3 FM.
A 'Reel' World Musician and Activist
"William's Poison" by Sue Massek. A transcript of this video can be found here.
Sue Massek is a musician committed to using the music she writes and the songs she sings as tools for social justice. As a member of the Reel World String Band from its beginning in 1977, she has been heavily influenced by the Highlander Center, which has provided training for grassroots movements beginning in the 1930s. With Reel World String Band, Massek has toured throughout the U.S., Canada and Italy.
Massek's solo work has taken her to Guatemala and Nicaragua, but for three decades she has worked in the schools using folk music, folk dance and folklife as methods of teaching core curriculum and diversity. She was a circuit rider for the Kentucky Arts Council for two years and has also worked as a community scholar in the Kentucky Folklife Program. Massek just recently released a solo recording project, "Brave is the Heart of a Singing Bird," which is a tribute to those people who influenced her music and activism. She worked as a cultural organizer for the Appalachian Women's Alliance for three years and the Kentucky Foundation for Women for seven years supporting feminist artists who use their art for social justice. Massek lives with her partner in Willisburg, Ky.
The "Appalachia in the Bluegrass" concert series celebrates the old time roots of American folk music by featuring a diverse range of traditional musical expression. The concert series will showcase 13 different artists, duos and groups from southern Appalachia ranging from artists straight off their front porch to those who have earned international acclaim. The concert series is generously presented by the John Jacob Niles Center for American Music, a collaborative research and performance center maintained by the UK College of Fine Arts, UK School of Music and UK Libraries.

Make your Raspberry Pi sing with Volumio
In the shared office space where I work, there's an old 2nd generation iMac that we use to play music. It's hooked up to a decent set of speakers, and plays music from the web or the local network. Over the last couple of years though, software support for non-intel Macs has all but disappeared, so we've been looking for alternatives.
Enter Volumio. The idea is really simple. Volumio transforms a Raspberry Pi computer into an audiophile music player. Simply install it onto an SD card, put it into the Pi, and you're good to go.

Japan's takeover rules are destined to be shaken up — but probably not for some time.
Summit Notebook
Expect action in Japanese M&A
After falling off a cliff at the start of this year as the global financial crisis gripped, mergers and acquisitions by Japanese companies overseas are likely to pick up again in the second half of this year, according to boutique Japanese M&A advisory firm Recof Corp.
Independent in appearance
Japan is edging towards the introduction of independent directors and auditors for publicly listed companies, but so far even the idea of having someone from outside at the top of a company remains a foreign concept.
Asia still a wealth of wealth players
A few years ago, domestic and international financial players were chomping at the bit to lure Mrs. Watanabe's millions of yen or fellow Asians' yuan, won or dollar holdings from their futons or equal-interest savings accounts.
Signs of life in Japanese private equity
The conventional wisdom is that private equity is comatose in Japan, at best, with some major firms leaving Tokyo, deal numbers sliding and even old Japan hands like Advantage Partners seen as looking to exit mature investments.
Nikkei recessive exuberance
If the Nikkei's spring rally from multi-decade lows whet appetites for a "Japan is back" soaring benchmark, it's time to check that excessive exuberance, says Deutsche Securities' Naoki Kamiyama, who sees a top of 10,500 yen for the Nikkei 225 and 1,000 for the Topix over the next year.
Investing Japan, as Japan invests offshore
Even in the best of times, Japan has never been a cakewalk for foreign investors. But in the wake of the global credit crisis, the world's second-largest economy can be downright baffling.
Learning to love Mongolia
Mongolia may seem like an extremely exotic investment destination in a world where money is heading for safety and avoiding risk, especially when violent riots are seizing the capital, Ulan Bator. But not for Junichiro Sano, president and CEO of Dalton Investments KK. "I found really special investment opportunities," Sano said at the Reuters Japan Investment Summit. Sano said he's been travelling to Mongolia regularly to learn more. The Mongolian Stock Exchange is made up of 360 companies and a total market capitalisation of $750 million, Sano said. As for corporate governance in Mongolia, a topic of much debate at the summit, Sano simply said: "It is nothing." Seventeen stock brokers are in the country, but there is no official qualification. Riots have hit Ulan Bator this week, leading to five deaths, over accusations of fraud in a parliamentary election held last weekend.
Audio: Japan M&A nothing like the 80s
Japanese companies are on the prowl for foreign assets, and this time it has nothing to do with Rockefeller Center and world-famous golf courses as Japan was famed for snapping up in the late 1980s at inflated prices. Steven Thomas, managing director and head of Japan mergers and acquisitions at UBS, said at the Reuters Japan Investment Summit that Japan Inc. sees foreign acquisitions as necessary to open up growth opportunities.
Losing faith in the dollar
No country has been a bigger fan of the dollar over the years as Japan. You can see it in the country's $1 trillion of foreign exchange reserves almost entirely concentrated in U.S. bonds or the sheer portfolio flows in the greenback month after month. But that may be changing. Yuuki Sakurai, head of financial planning and investment at Japan's No. 9 life insurer Fukoku Mutual Life, said the dollar's long role as the centre of the global currency universe may be coming to an end, partly due to politics. "Look at the U.S. position in the world community, that's changing and that's part of the story. I think Pax Americana, that regime is gone. But it's not happening overnight, it's changing gradually," said Sakurai, whose oversees about $54 billion of assets, while speaking at the Reuters Japan Investment Summit. "If you think that a paradigm based on the dollar may be starting to change and that the euro's weight globally may come close to matching the dollar's presence, the dollar might fall to 80 yen in the future," Sakurai said. "I am saying something a bit extreme, but the dollar might fall below 50 yen 10 years from now," he said. The dollar is near 106.50 yen now, up from a 13-year low of 95.77 yen in March, but it is still not far from record lows against the euro.

July 18 roundup: Rockies involved in much trade buzz
The Rockies reportedly made it more explicitly clear Monday what the club would need to see in order to part ways with ace right-hander Ubaldo Jimenez, but the team may also be interested in making other trades.
Colorado is willing to deal struggling right-hander Aaron Cook or possibly any of three relievers — Huston Street, Rafael Betancourt and Matt Belisle — if the playoffs become a more unlikely possibility.
On the other side, general managers — like New York's Brian Cashman — must decide if Jimenez's value is worth it. With Phil Hughes recently registering his best start of the season for the Yankees, does New York want to pay a premium for Jimenez?
And as CBS Sports' Danny Knobler reported, the Tigers may not have enough to be in the running for the Rockies right-hander.
* Instead, the Tigers' list of possibly starting pitching targets continues to grow, reports FOX Sports' Jon Paul Morosi. In addition to Jimenez, Derek Lowe and Hiroki Kuroda, Detroit may also be interested in Orioles starter Jeremy Guthrie.
* The Indians are trying to hold their ground at the top of the AL Central, but now must attempt to do so without the services of center fielder Grady Sizemore, for the time being. Sizemore suffered a right knee contusion in Sunday's game, leaving Michael Brantley on a bit of an island in Cleveland's outfield. FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that the Tribe may be looking for right-handed hitters such as Hunter Pence, Marlon Byrd, Jeff Francoeur, Ryan Ludwick, Josh Willingham, Reed Johnson or Scott Hairston. Rosenthal believes Carlos Beltran's contract would be too much an obstacle for Cleveland.
* Rosenthal also reported Monday that the Angels have interest in Chicago's Aramis Ramirez, but the Cubs third baseman is "adamant" he doesn't want to leave Chicago.

CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio –- The Canterbury Parent Teacher Association is collecting donations for a permanent memorial for music teacher Kathryn Smoker, who died earlier this month.
The PTA has collected $5,700 toward its $7,500 goal. May 31 is the last day to give money.
Donate at the Canterbury Elementary
School office, 2530 Canterbury Road, or online at www.Youcaring.com/katesmokerfamily.
The Canterbury PTA released a written statement, calling Smoker a talented and treasured music teacher.
"Our whole community has been blessed with her enthusiasm, creativity, compassion and musical stewardship. While our hearts are breaking, as long as students wander the halls humming a short tune or singing a little verse, her extraordinary spirit will live on," the statement reads.
Smoker died April 7, and the Cuyahoga County Coroner still hasn't determined the cause of death. She was 35.
Art teacher Ida Bergson and PTA members will use donations to buy materials to make mosaic benches. Students will make and glaze tiles for the benches that will be placed on school grounds.
Bergson, whose classroom was directly across the hall from Smoker's classroom, said they were close friends.
"Kate always recognized the very best qualities in her students and worked hard to get them to recognize their own gifts," Bergson said.
Smoker, Bergson and physical education teacher Julie Lustic were part of Canterbury's Creative Arts Team. Lustic said Smoker was a beautiful, gentle soul.
"Kate was always up for a challenge," Lustic said. "She brought her enthusiasm, creative spirit, and willingness to embrace projects outside her area of expertise to all our collaborations. We will miss her not only as a colleague, but as a close friend and confidant."
Smoker started as a music teacher at Gearity Professional Development School in University Heights in 2008. She then split her time between Gearity and Canterbury before moving full-time to Canterbury, where she remained for the past three years.
"We are all better for having had her in
our lives, if only for a short time," Lustic said.
Smoker leaves behind a husband, Matthew, and two children, Sebastian and Jillian. The family lives in Avon.
Any money leftover from the project will go to the Smoker family.
The PTA said, "We will use the fundraiser to reciprocate the priceless gift of education she tirelessly gave to our families and fund a small college savings for her children."For more Cleveland Heights news, like us on Facebook.

Incensed that a rival had shot at him with a handgun, a Covington man on Friday armed himself with an AK-47 assault rifle and set out to hunt the shooter, police said. But Robert Laurent III could not find Lamarx Joiner, so he allegedly fired his rifle into the air in frustration.
Neighbors alerted police to Laurent's display of rage - and now both men are behind bars, authorities said Monday.
Laurent and Joiner's dispute in the West 30s neighborhood stemmed from an argument about matters police are unaware of, according to spokesman Capt. Jack West. Investigators believe Joiner at some point drew a handgun and allegedly tried to kill Laurent by shooting several bullets at him.
Laurent, 20, retreated to his home in the 800 block of West 30th Avenue and retrieved his AK-47, West said. He stormed over to where he thought Joiner would be, in the 800 block of 31st Avenue, and allegedly intended to kill him.
But West said Joiner, 23, was nowhere to be found, so Laurent aimed his weapon at the clouds and squeezed the trigger in fury.
West 30s neighborhood watch members dialed 911 about 1 p.m. and reported the gunfire. The responding officers spotted a spent cartridge lying on the street and tracked Laurent to his house, West said. They brought him to headquarters for questioning.
There, officers learned about the conflict, and they booked Laurent into jail with one count of illegally discharging a weapon. They seized his AK-47 as evidence.
West said officers on Friday could not find Joiner, who resides in the 200 block of West 32nd Ave. They obtained a warrant to arrest him on one count each of attempted second-degree murder and illegal discharge of a weapon.
About 1 a.m. Sunday, police spotted Joiner leaning against a car two blocks from where Laurent lives. They immediately arrested him on the warrant but could not find the handgun he used to allegedly attack Laurent, according to West.
Both men remained behind bars Monday. Records show Laurent's bond was set at $10,000 for the illegal discharge and Joiner's at $85,000 for his two counts.
Illegally discharging a weapon normally allows for a fine of up to $1,000 and two years' imprisonment in Louisiana. Attempted second-degree murder carries a maximum prison sentence of 50 years.
St. Tammany Parish court documents show Joiner has previously served time in prison for drug convictions. Meanwhile, in an unrelated case, Laurent is accused of domestic abuse battery with child endangerment, but that has not yet been resolved.

At noon Wednesday, Schouten will take questions from readers during an hourlong webchat moderated by the Hillsboro Argus. No subject is off limits. One topic sure to come up is Schouten's recent assertion that the time has come to form a county service district to meet the needs of the Aloha-Reedville area.
In a guest column last week, Schouten took note of recent achievements in the Aloha area, such as the establishment of a community library and a business association. However, he said a special district could give residents the self-taxing authority to pay for sidewalks and other services they want.
"Such a district can bring governance certainty, be leanly staffed, cost-effective and target precisely those services Aloha-Reedville needs and wants." Schouten wrote. "Siuch a service district would bust silo-thinking regarding government services, be unique in Oregon (it's worked well elsewhere), and allow for dynamic private-public partnerships. All things that Washington County is gaining a well-earned reputation for doing well."
Come back on the day of the chat or set up an email reminder below.

So my MIL came down for a long weekend and took my 7 month old DD out for long walks. They had a great time together, it was very sweet. However, while MIL was here, DD's night diapers couldn't contain her night pees. It had never happened before but every night MIL was here it did. And we cosleep, so it was prety eww.
MIL said she gave DD a little water while they were out on the walks. Could this have caused the night excesses? Should also say that now that MIL is gone, the diapers are working just fine.

Background Information
An International Problem that Requires an International Solution
ash is a worldwide aviation problem that demands an international solution.
The volcanic "ring of fire" circling the Pacific basin ranges
from South and Central America through the Pacific Northwest and Alaska,
and around to Kamchatka, Japan, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Micronesia.
This region is often cited as having the greatest volcanic ash risk because
of the number of active volcanoes and their proximity to major aviation
routes. Other regions of volcanic activity are in the Caribbean and Mediterranean
basins and south Asia. Ash plumes carried downwind from a major eruption
in any of these regions can endanger the aircraft of any nation flying
in a plume's path.
The 1991
symposium on volcanic ash and aviation safety brought international stakeholders,
as well as U.S. federal agencies and many R&D partners, together for
the first time. Since then, the VAAC system has been established. Detection
and monitoring of airborne ash using weather satellites in geosynchronous
orbit now complements observations of eruptions from volcano observatories
and reports of ash plumes from pilots. Atmospheric circulation models
provide improved forecasts of plume movements. New technology for inflight
detection of volcanic ash and gas is being tested. Most important, the
aviation community—commercial carriers, pilots, air traffic controllers,
flight service specialists, etc.—has gained operational experience
with this still-evolving international system for mitigating the volcanic
ash risk. The time is ripe to bring all these stakeholders together again,
both to assess how the current system is operating and to focus attention
on the critical areas for improvement.

The unusual, headline-grabbing hat Princess Beatrice, 22, wore to the Royal Wedding on April 29 is being auctioned off on eBay.
"She's putting it up on eBay to auction it for UNICEF and for children in crisis," Beatrice's mother, Duchess Sarah Ferguson, announced Wednesday during an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
According to People Magazine, the hat, a blush-colored topper made by renowned London milliner Philip Treacy, was so unusual that it instantly grabbed headlines, became an Internet sensation and became the focus on several Facebook fan pages that have gathered more than 136,000 fans. Also, numerous spoof photos have been posted on the internet showing figures including Barack Obama wearing it. Read the full story.
Here's what one reader, mst3000, had to say about the story:
"Not many are willing to wear a serpent crested toilet seat as head wear.
On the other hand one doesn't have to travel far when ready to worship the porcelain god after a few too many jello shots."

Lawyers for a man deported to India last year filed a federal lawsuit against Edison today, contending his First Amendment rights were violated when immigration authorities arrested him at a rally where he was protesting alleged police brutality.
Rajnikant Parikh, who has remained in India since his deportation in April 2007, was initially arrested July 4, 2006 outside his Dayton Drive apartment complex after a confrontation with Edison police officer Michael Dotro, who was sent to disperse a crowd watching illegal fireworks.
Parikh accused Dotro and other unidentified officers of police brutality. The incident led to a summer of tension between Edison officials and the growing Asian-Indian community in the Middlesex County township.
The discord culminated in a protest the following month outside the municipal building, where Parikh was arrested by federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, officials for being in the country illegally.
An Edison police internal affairs investigation later determined Parikh's immigration arrest was prompted in part by contact between Dotro and his brother Sam Dotro, an attorney for ICE.
Parikh's 15-page lawsuit, filed in federal court in Newark, names the Dotro brothers and Edison Police Benevolent Association President Michael Schwarz as defendants. Neither of the Dotros nor Schwarz could be reached for comment today.

Some good news for Alabama: Silence is not an NCAA violation.
Take the communication between member institutions and prospective student-athletes.
The rules tell schools when they can talk to recruits, not what they're obligated to say to them.
|At Alabama, mum was the word
News columnists Kevin Scarbinsky, right, and Ray Melick discuss why Alabama became a fortress of silence.
So Alabama officials crossed a different kind of line on the long road to their latest sit-down with the NCAA's Supreme Court.
They kept their recruits in the dark.
They let young men make the most important decision of their young lives without sharing a rather important piece of information with them.
They let the members of their 2009 recruiting class sign a national letter-of-intent on Feb. 4 without telling them that the school would be appearing in front of the Infractions Committee on Feb. 20.
Put aside legal obligations and the public's right to know for a moment.
What about a moral obligation?
Didn't recruits and their families have a right to know?
"If it was my son being recruited," Corner High School coach Brent Smith said, "I would want to know about it."
The rest of the column can be read in Tuesday's Birmingham News.

New Surry Extension director named
Bryan Cave, a long-time North Carolina Cooperative Extension agent in Surry County, has been named to direct the Surry Extension program.
Cave's appointment as Surry Extension director was announced by Dr. Jon Ort, director of the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service at North Carolina State University, and the Surry County Board of Commissioners.
Cave joined Cooperative Extension as an assistant agricultural agent in Surry County in 1988. He holds a bachelor's and a master's degree, both from North Carolina State University and both in Animal Science. He also holds an associate of arts degree from Surry Community College.
Throughout his Cooperative Extension career, Cave, who grew up on a small, diversified Surry County farm, has worked primarily with livestock and forage producers. He succeeds Brenda Rose, who retired after a 31-year career with Cooperative Extension, including 19 years as Surry County director.
Cave has won a number of awards during his Extension career, including the Outstanding Young Agent Achievement Award and the George and Virginia Hyatt Scholarship. He was also a finalist in the National Association of County Agricultural Agents 4-H and Youth Recognition Program.
"Bryan's leadership experience and training have prepared him well for this position. He is familiar with the people and the Extension program in Surry County," said Bob Edwards, Extension Northwest District Director. Surry County is in Extension's Northwest District.
Edwards added, "Bryan is highly respected by all who have been associated with him. I'm confident he will be an excellent addition to the great team of county Extension directors in the Northwest District."

To the editor:
Our election on Nov. 6 is very important for our republic of the United States of America and our freedoms provided by the Constitution. Please be informed as to what issues are presented. Our country is taking a bit hit politically and morally. Values of our country are being flushed down the drain for permissiveness and attacks on our freedoms. Read as much as you can. A couple interesting articles can be googled and offer some very interesting insight.
The death panels referred to as "grim reaper" by Dr. Janda do not suggest "doing no harm nor quality care - just the treatment you receive divided by your age - to consider if it is worth the years you have left." (That) statement is to pique your interest as to what is out there in many of these articles.
(Regarding) the article by Dr. David Janda, an orthopedic surgeon from Michigan, snopes.com wants to say his statements were misleading. Read all of what snopes says before making a judgement. WND reports Obama's advisor admits death panels are needed. It is an article by Aaron Klein of WorldNetDaily and independent news network. Also google the Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effective Research. Lots to read and become informed. There is the article about "death panels - is not in the bill - it already exists." Google snopes.com for good articles on Dr. Janda, but read all of it, not just what snopes interprets. Please be informed before you color the O come election time. God Bless our republic and our military that keeps our way of life safe and secure. Many lives have been lost and soldiers injured for life, defending our country.
We need to be there for them, too.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The future has become the present for the South Alabama football program.
Games such as the one the Jaguars will play today are the type of games the coaching staff pointed to when recruiting many of the players who will be in uniform for South Alabama. Today's game represents the opportunities that were promised.
The Jaguars, 2-1 on the season, face SEC member Tennessee, 2-2, at Neyland Stadium in an 11:21 a.m. CDT game. It will be played to a large television audience on the SEC Network, in one of the country's biggest college football stadiums, before the biggest crowd in which the Jags have ever played.
Opportunity is knocking, but it is expected to be a test. While the Volunteers are on a two-game losing streak, the losses have come on the road and against teams ranked in the Top 25 -- Oregon and Florida. On the other hand, South Alabama is on a two-game win streak, having topped Tulane on the road and Western Kentucky at home in games that went down the the final play.
South Alabama finds itself a 19-point underdog. Tennessee finds itself in need of a win.
Today's game will be an important win, but for which team? The Western Kentucky victory has been labeled the biggest in South Alabama's young history, but a win today over the Vols would be bigger. A win today for Tennessee would be welcomed relief for first-year head coach Butch Jones and his staff as the Vols brace for another pair of Top 25 teams -- Georgia and South Carolina -- after today's game.
There are a few things to watch for in today's game. Quarterback play will be important. South Alabama will continue to use both Ross Metheny and Brandon Bridge while Tennessee is expected to make Justin Worley its starter again, though there are some who believe Jones might give one of his true freshmen -- Joshua Dobbs or Riley Ferguson -- some playing time today.
The offensive and defensive line play for both teams will be a focal point. Tennessee has fronts with greater size and experience, putting a premium on the play and execution of the Jags' opposing lines. Starting quickly may also be a key factor. Tennessee has scored 59 of its 128 points in the first quarter. If the Jags can get something going early on offense, scoring points and moving the football, it could go a long way in maintaining the confidence they have said they possess heading into the game.

A 27-year-old man was arraigned in court today, accused of entering a Southwest Portland apartment about 3 a.m. on Monday and threatening to kill the occupants.
Justin Lee Baughman allegedly tried to strike three male occupants of the unit with a folding knife while claiming that someone paid him to knock them out. The occupants say Baughman dropped a black bandana on a coffee table, calling it a "mark of death,'' according to a probable cause affidavit filed in court.
The victims told police they did not recognize the man. Two of the occupants fled the apartment located in the 1900 block of Southwest Park Ave. and a third hid in a bedroom, propping a chair against the door. The man hiding in the bedroom grabbed a shotgun, racked a shell into the chamber and called 9-1-1.
Baughman fled the apartment when he heard the man on the phone with 9-1-1, the affidavit says.
Baughman was arrested about 3:30 a.m. Monday. He was arraigned in court this afternoon, facing allegations of attempted second-degree assault, menacing, first-degree burglary and unlawful use of a weapon.

Clothing Your Kids Challenge Day 5: Create a Color Palette
A great way to maximize your kids' wardrobe potential is to buy clothes that fit into a similar color palette. By doing this you will increase their number of options without busting your budget! Today's challenge is to create a color palette!
Do you usually buy similar colored clothes for your kids or do you like to mix it up? Is there a color you think looks best on your kids? What are your kids' favorite colors?
If you missed yesterday's activity, you can find it here. If you haven't signed up for the Clothing Your Kids Challenge yet, you can do so here!
I have a variety of colors in his wardrobe...red blue green orange yellow black...his fave color these days is green
I mix it up. They have several pieces that will match though. Like they have a pair of bright orange shorts, and they have 5 or 6 shirts that look great with them.
Now my boys has the normal colors blue. But i will love to see them in different colors.
I like to mix it up..they have a variety of colors.
My dd loves all colors. I mostly buy red and pink. Since her pants are almost all denim I really buy whatever color she likes something in.
I just buy whatever I like. I don't really look for certain colors.
I like to mix it up. My DD's favorite color is green. I think she looks best in blues and greens.
My youngest DD l;oves Pink and black and peace signs so she looks for items with these involved. My oldest DD is more of a solid color kinda girl and she likes to then dress the clothing up with other items like colorful belts or hoodies! Her favorite colors are blue and purple.
My youngest sons favorite colors are Red and black and he likes long solid tshirts and skinny jeans and he usually adds different colors to his pallet. My oldest Son Doesn't care he usually just throws on his jeans a t shirt with some kind of saying or character on it and a grey hoodie! His favorite color is green but Blue looks so good on him with his blond hair and pretty blue eyes!

Home recording is becoming easier and easier. Whether you come from a synthesizer or keyboard background and want to use MIDI to put a full orchestra behind you, or you just want to record your guitar and vocals for a demo it's easier than ever to record at home. While you will probably not get the same sound quality as a big name studio many if not most of the effects big studios employee are possible for a very modest sum.
First things first; you need the right room. That basement with the leaky faucet, and the furnace that turns on intermittently just made your demo sound very amateur. It doesn't matter if you're using a traditional 4 track, or hard disk recording extra noise is the enemy; you want the recording to stand out not the noises hanging out in the background. There are some exceptions. For instance if you are using entirely MIDI instrumentals with no digital audio you could record in a space shuttle launch with little worries outside the usual concerns of extra terrestrial travel. Also though sometimes you DO want that extra sound. Maybe the car driving by 3 floors below gives a little flavor to your blues track. Either way; plan on recording the sounds you want and staying as far away from those you do not especially when using traditional or digital audio.
Now that you have a relatively confined place and you've isolated the sounds you really want recorded it's time to check your gear. If you're recording a fender strat, or other electronic instrument you may need a guitar amplifier. If you've got a microphone you probably want a pre-amp. Whether you're using your trusty Shure SM-58, or a high end condenser mic the pre-amp is what's standing between you and well tapping on a cool looking piece of metal wondering where the sound is. This is also true when recording acoustic instruments.
Next up you're going to need a mixer. Much of recording is in the mix, and this is true regardless of whether you're using digital audio or midi. What you mixer is like may differ though. Many hard disk recording applications have a virtual mixing board. Applications such as Pro Tools actually interface directly with many mixers; you can actually watch the knobs adjust as you tweak controls in the software! Even with these however you may want to invest in an external mixer to give you quick access to tweaking the sound without having to use cumbersome controls like the mouse.
Another consideration is your recording gear itself. As much as it may seem counter-intuitive a lot of recording gear is noisy. An old computer with a decent sound card can record great things; including that massive fan keeping it cooled. Even relatively silent computers like the G4 Cube, or many laptops are still noisy at times and having that fan kick in 4 minutes into your guitar solo can result in a bad recording if not even damaged gear as you take out your frustrations on your guitar. There are cases that aim to isolate noisy components into a chamber but often the easiest way is to throw sheets on the walls, and run wires to the room next door. This probably however will require having someone play sound engineer and man the controls from afar.
That would be the final box on our checklist; the people. Yeah you're recording at home but you don't have to sound like it. You wouldn't, assuming your little sister isn't the next Neil Peart or John Bonham, let them play drums on your killer demo so why trust recording and mixing your demo to someone who hasn't cut their teeth at it? In a lot of ways your sound engineer is as much one of the instrumentalists as anyone else in the band. Getting someone to manage all that recording gear is a critical part of the to do list.

I just got back from my daily walk in Lenox's Kennedy Park. Today my daughter was riding her horse and I had my Jack Russell terrier on a leash. We were all meandering along enjoying the sunshine and the wonderful phlox which are now in full bloom when our reverie was rudely interrupted by a large yellow lab that came bounding around the corner behind us, landing on top of my jack. She immediately went into full attack mode, and the lab responded in kind. Fortunately my dog was on a leash so I was able to pull her loose and the other dog finally retreated to its owner who was fruitlessly calling from way back down the trail.
I thought it was all over when another black lab comes barreling around the same corner. This one goes past us and proceeds up the path barking at the horse. By that time my daughter had gotten off because of all the ruckus and she was able to calm the horse. As the owner of both dogs went by me I reminded her, and I admit I was upset at this point, that her dogs should be under control. Her response was to tell me that I was out of control! How much better if she had instead apologized and learned the lesson that her dogs should be leashed.
I know its nice to be able to let your dogs go in the park. If your dog is well trained enough so that it will come when it is called, no matter what, then fine, have at it. But please if you can't control your dog off leash don't let it go.
The park is a public place to be shared and enjoyed by all, I shouldn't have to be constantly on my guard for loose dogs and the havoc they cause.

But he did Tuesday night after Dion Phaneuf made his debut in Toronto by delivering a first period hit on Zach Parise.
"I just felt he was going in pretty high there," White said. "Zach is our best player, so you have to expect that if you take a run at him."
White, who wears a visor as protection, wasn't necessarily looking for a fight. But his helmet came off and punches were thrown by both players.
"I wanted to at least confront him, anyway," White explained. "If you hit a guy like Zach, you have to answer to somebody."
Neither player landed any good punches.
"No. A lot of air," White said. "I was a little rusty. It's been a while."
Jacques Lemaire moved Dainius Zubrus from the top line with Travis Zajac and Parise, but eventually reunited the trio during the second period before trying numerous combinations.
New Jersey's fourth line had Dean McAmmond centering for tough guys Andrew Peters and Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond. Rod Pelley and Vladimir Zharkov were Devils scratches.
The Devils wore their red jerseys instead of their road whites.
Devils goalie Martin Brodeur said defenseman Paul Martin is devastated at not being able to play for Team USA in the upcoming Olympics.
Martin, who must wear a cast on his left arm for another two weeks as he recovers from a fractured forearm, withdrew his name from the U.S. roster on Monday.
"I think it's an unfortunate situation for him," Brodeur said. "I think Team USA is definitely losing one of its top puck-moving defensemen. There are still talented players out there, there's no doubt about that. But I know him personally and I'm sure he's really personally devastated about the situation he's in. Especially to be out for so long with a broken bone.
"It's just tough. He had a goal. This is the last year of his contract and the Olympics, this was a big year for him. Now it's been altered big time. Hopefully he'll come back healthy and give it that big push at the end of the year."
Brodeur, who had started the last 33 games and played in 40 straight before sitting out Tuesday night, couldn't remember the last time he did not start a game in Canada.
The last game this season in which Brodeur did not see action either as the starter or in relief of Yann Danis was Nov. 6 against the Islanders.
"There are a lot of games coming up. This is a great time for me to rest," Brodeur said. "We've got two days off after this game. After that it's a full week of playing a lot of games back-to-back every couple of days. So this will give me time to rest and work on my game. I haven't had a chance to do that a lot this season because of the hectic schedule."
Brodeur was asked if he has noticed teammates who will represent other Olympic teams shooting at his head in practice as the Winter Games approach.
"I got a few shots from my American teammates," Brodeur said. "I won't blame it on that because I'm an American, too, now.
"But personally I'm definitely looking at these guys more, how they shoot and how they skate. That's what you do as a goalie. You have to get yourself prepared. I'm definitely looking at Zach a little more. And Jamie also."
He wasn't kidding.
Jacques Lemaire, who will be an assistant coach for Team Canada in Vancouver, explained what his duties will be under head coach Mike Babcock.
"He wants me to give my input in the penalty kill. And watch how the game goes and who would fit better with whom and look at the lines and how they fit against the other teams," Lemaire said.
"You have to know your job and make sure that you're not stepping on anybody's job. To me it's what will be the toughest, because when you're a head coach you want to control. As a head coach you're in the action, you do all these things very quickly. As an assistant you have to wait for the big boss to tell you to step in or you don't step in."

Hey everyone, what's up? I'm Nick Stauskas, a 6'6" shooting guard from Mississauga, Ontario. I'm 17 years old and I go to St. Mark's school in Southborough, MA.
This summer has definitely been one of my favorite summers ever. When I look back at it, it went by very quickly and it seems as if I didn't do much, but I definitely got a lot done and had a lot of fun at the same time.
I came home from school on June 3rd and the first thing I wanted to do was get healthy! A minor knee injury kept me out from playing AAU ball the whole spring so I needed to get that fixed as soon as possible. I started going to physiotherapy 3 times a week and I started seeing results right away. By the time July came along my knee was feeling a lot better, but definitely not 100%. I was so anxious to finally get to play that it really didn't matter to me whether I was perfectly healthy or not.
The first event I played at was the John Wall Breakout Camp in Philadelphia. I hadn't played basketball competitively in about four months so I came in with an "I got nothing to lose mentality." I was kind of nervous before playing for the first time, but as soon as I got into my rhythm I was just happy to be back out there. After the first two days at the camp, people were showing me the write up's about the camp and all of them were mentioning me as one of the top performers. That definitely helped my confidence in getting back into the swing of things. I ended up not playing the final day of the camp because I needed to get some rest for a tournament I had in Springfield the next day.
I was really excited to finally play in a tournament with Grassroots Canada. My body was pretty soar from playing at John Wall camp, but I was too excited to not play. My parents came out to Springfield and they hadn't seen me play for a really long time so that added even more excitement and motivation for me. Our team played pretty well for the whole tournament, but we ended up losing in the semi finals. I wasn't happy at all with the way I played individually. I had some good games, but also some bad ones. My main problem was that my body wasn't in playing shape and I wasn't performing to my full ability. My jump shot was flat and I was very sluggish.
Our next and last tournament of the summer was the Fab 48 in Vegas. I had 2 weeks after Springfield to get healthy and get in shape. Those two weeks were definitely very frustrating at times, but I felt I did a good job of getting my body prepared and being mentally ready for Vegas.
Coming into Vegas, I knew nothing was expected out of us. We were a team from Canada and were nowhere close to the talent level of other teams if you were to look at "rankings." I was our strongest player and was looked at to be a leader, and I was unranked and unknown by most people. After pool play we were 2-1 and advanced to the top division. Coming into every elimination game, I think everyone expected us to lose, but our team was playing well together and I think I did a good job of leading our guys. My favorite game of the tournament, as well as the year, was the game before the quarterfinals against Belmont Shore. Coming into the game, everyone was telling me they were one of the best AAU teams in the country and that they had three potential all Americans on their team. I was hearing a lot about this kid Katin Reinhardt who played on Belmont Shore and how he was highly ranked and recruited. I never try to have individual battles during games, but I had a chip on my shoulder coming into this game and wanted to show everyone I was the best player on the floor and ultimately lead my team to a win. The game was close to the very end, but we ended up beating them. I was excited about the win and also very happy about my own performance because I felt like I proved to everyone that I was the best player on the floor. I believe I finished with 30 points and 8 rebounds.
Our team ended up losing in the semi finals to the KC 76ers. I was so proud of everyone on our team for stepping up and coming as far as we did. We made it to the final 4 in one of the most competitive tournaments in the country and coming in we weren't expected to be anywhere close to that! I think that says a lot about our guys! I was happy with how I played throughout the tournament and I think I proved a lot of people wrong.
I think the tournament in Vegas helped me a lot with my confidence because I was able to play against so many highly ranked kids. I know rankings aren't always the most accurate, but I like to follow them and keep tabs of names. A lot of people are scared when it comes to playing against kids who have a lot of hype around them. I enjoy it! I look at it as an opportunity to prove myself. A lot of opportunities to play against the top players were taken away from me when I wasn't invited to Pangos All American camp or NBA Top 100 Camp this summer, so I really tried to take advantage of my time in Vegas. I knew a lot of those kids were going to be there. I also think that not being invited to those camps was a good thing for me. I love using those camps as motivation whenever I don't feel like working on my game. You can always get better at something!
After Vegas I only had two things left on my schedule for the summer. First, was an opportunity to play against Baylor University with the Canadian Jr National team. I was excited because I wanted to see what the competition was like at the next level. They were definitely a lot more physical than high school players and the game was a lot faster, but I thought I did a good job in competing with them. I finished the game with 27 points and 7 rebounds.
The last thing I had on my schedule for the summer was visiting Houston to spend some time with my good friend Maurice Evans of the Washington Wizards. Mo and I first met at NBA Top 100 Camp in 2010. He was a coach on my team and we developed a good relationship. When camp was finished, we exchanged numbers and agreed to stay in touch. From that point on he kind of took me under his wing and has been a mentor to me. He invited me to Houston so I could workout with him, ask questions and learn all about what it takes to be a professional basketball player. I spent 3 days at his house and the majority of the time we spent talking about all kinds of stuff. I learned that there is a lot that goes on behind what we see when we watch the NBA. The life of an NBA player is definitely not as easy as some people think! I really enjoyed my time with Mo and his family and am so grateful to have Mo as someone I can talk to about anything. Him and I will be staying in touch throughout the season and hopefully we will be able to meet up again next summer. Thanks for everything Mo!
That has pretty much been most of my summer! Other than that, I've spent a lot of time with family and friends as well as trying to get 100% healthy again. I'm away all year at school so whenever I'm at home I like to see everyone again. I've lost contact with a lot of friends because of my move to the U.S., but I have about 10 really good friends back home that have stuck with me through everything. I know I can count on these guys no matter what! I've also been able to spend a lot of time with my brother Peter, which has been great because I don't get to see him often. Peter is 21 and studies at the University of Waterloo. Our school schedules make it tough for us to see each other a lot, but he is currently on a co-op term, so he is living at home again for now. He and I play a lot of basketball together in our backyard. He's a good player and is probably more competitive than I am, so our games get heated a lot of the time, but I never let him beat me! He used to beat up on me all the time when we were younger and I HATED losing to him! A lot of my game comes from playing 1 on 1 against my brother and a lot of people don't know that. My brother is ultimately one of my best friends and only wants the best for me. I am lucky to have him in my life!
That's about it! It's time for me to get back to school and start preparing for the high school season. I have a lot to work on before I get to Michigan in 2012! Thank you to everyone for reading. Hope you learned a little something new about me!

A suburban Detroit police officer killed while responding to a report of a home invasion at an apartment complex has been identified as Cpl. Matthew Edwards.
Taylor Police Commander Dan Crowell said Friday that the 31-year-old Edwards died shortly after 6 a.m. and is the first Taylor officer killed in the line of duty.
Police say a 36-year-old man from nearby Westland also was shot in the parking lot of the complex.
"It's a rough day. A lot of long faces around here," Blair said, adding that the fatal shooting is the first in the department's history. "We've escaped it to this point."
The Michigan State Police and officers from Taylor cordoned off stretches of the Coppertree apartment complex in the southwestern Detroit suburb Friday morning as an investigation into the shooting got under way.
Yellow police tape was affixed to trees throughout the complex and investigators went door-to-door to ask residents what they knew about the incident.
Arthur White, 38, said his 18-year-old son was awakened by what he thought were fireworks, but later learned was gunfire. White said the complex is in a rough area where drugs and teenage delinquency are common.
"A lot of activity here," he said. "Drugs. Teenagers walking around."
White said a woman was fatally shot two days after he moved into Coppertree several years ago.
Wendy Meinke was killed in 2007 during a dispute involving her son and others at an apartment complex in Taylor. Police at the time said she tried to intervene and two people shot in her direction.


text: After hearing about how we need to get the NRA's numbers up, I decided I'd start the drive to triple their numbers. I've signed my wife and son up under the $10 associate plan. If we'd all do the same, the NRA's numbers could easily double at least. Use the $10 associate plan for yourself and/or your relatives. Then, using the money saved by going to the associate plan, you can donate the balance to the NRA-ILA. Folks, we are going to need big membership numbers in the near future. Please, pitch in. (and pass the word around to others about this simple plan)

For Maxime Vives, Andrew Davidson and Marsh Cooper, the ITT went not too bad. Cabrel Boucher and Mark Pozniak had it a bit harder but no worries there.In the afternoon, the stage was one of 120km with wind, and hills and a pack of 120 riders from different regions of France and a few Belgian team, with Cam Evans racing with Domo-Sweet Paradise.The race started pretty fast and furious with all wanting the head of the peleton. Our guys were having some problems getting positioned, though they will learn to keep the elbows out. A break went up the road after 15 km with Cam present in it. As for the other Canucks, they were still trying to find their way to the front.From that point on it was an illimination race from the back and the guys wearing the leaf were having a bit of difficulties; what with the jetlag and the adaptation not there yet.In the end, nobody was really in the running and Cam who was in the final break broke his chain and had to abandon.All in all, this race was the first in a series of 6 to 8 that are destined to get the juniors ready for worlds. While this last one was a bit of a rude awakening, I am confident that they will progress to be competitive for worlds.

By Frank Gerace 7:50pm, October 11, 2012 - Updated 9:41am, October 12, 2012The state Democratic Party has filed a Federal Election Commission complaint against Independent Party of Delaware US Senate candidate Alex Pires, prompting the Massachusetts native to make allegations against Senator Carper.
The complaint alleges Pires used employees and other resources at bars, nightclubs and restaurants he owns to campaign for him during working hours, and that materials released by his campaign don't contain legally-mandated disclaimers.
The complaint also claims Pires regularly missed court deadlines for filing claims when he worked as a class-action attorney in DC.
Pires' campaign responded to the complaint with an e-mail claiming Senator Carper abused his wives and is lying about serving in Vietnam while in the Navy--Pires also claims the complaint is entirely based on his giving chicken from Jimmy's Grill to three elderly ladies.
Carper spokesman Ian Sams calls Pires' charges "despicable and outrageous."
Carper and Pires will face Republican Kevin Wade in the election November 6th.

This is the definition of a romantic production.

Steven Pasquale plays the lead as Robert Kincaid. Television fans might remember Pasquale from his days as a firefighter on the hit show Rescue Me. He's also been a key part of the casts in Fat Pig, A Soldier's Play, Far From Heaven, and more. The other lead is played by Kelli O'Hara, who completely owns the role of Francesa Johnson. O'Hara is well known to Broadway fans and has four Tony nominations under her belt. The production is directed by Bartlett Sher.

Bargains 101 on Sunday was a hoot! You could call it a success if you judge success by buzzillions of women shopping body-to-body in a gymnasium that was a bit stuffy and packed to the gills with fantastic bargains, "hot" couture - some at up to 75 percent off - and a general "feel the sistahood" kind of ambiance. Yeah! It was like shopping in New York or LA.
I scored a pair of black, patent leather flats for $10 from Ella's. I also bought a wonderfully soft grey sweater from Mink that I fell in love with by touch! It feels like cashmere and it was only $28. I think that was about a third for the original cost.
People were grabbing this and that ... trying on some of the best of boutique fashions right in the middle of the mayhem. Next time? More dressing rooms please. It was too much fun. I also bought a bunch of papers from Collage and some dauber paints for like $1. Prices were even going down while we were there. Ohmyhead.
Shop on!

If..you have a laptop, look at the Garmin Nuvi200, under $200 and Delorme Topo software. Plug Garmin into laptop and watch yourself drive around the map. Lat,lon, ASL on side bar,make notes on screen. Real topo maps with all the street info.

Subsidizing Hate: A Proposal to Reform the Internal Revenue Service's Methodology Test
Alex Reed
University of Georgia - Department of Insurance, Legal Studies, Real Estate
Fordham Journal of Corporate and Financial Law, Vol. 17, p. 824, 2012
Although a wide variety of organizations may qualify as tax-exempt public charities, reform is needed to ensure that hate groups masquerading as educational organizations do not receive preferential tax treatment. Since 1986, the Internal Revenue Service has utilized a methodology test to determine when advocacy of a particular viewpoint may be deemed educational so as to qualify the underlying organization as a public charity. Because the Service has been reluctant to apply the test rigorously, however, a number of hate groups have been able to obtain charitable status under the guise of operating as legitimate educational organizations.
This article contends that application of the methodology test must be more robust to prevent hate groups from receiving federal subsidies in the form of certain tax advantages. Additionally, the article proposes reforms designed to limit hate groups' ability to operate as public charities while ensuring that educational organizations advocating hate-neutral minority viewpoints may continue to receive the tax benefits associated with charitable status.
