'Tis past—but yet I See it still, That sunshine on the shore; • ■ The roses on the window sill; The ivy round the door; The light and shadow flitting round Each old familiar tree, Along the line of grassy ground That slopes towards the sea; And through the western window low . The Setting sunbeams pour, And flit andTflicker to and fro • Upon the matted floor. •The -little porch—I see It yet- Where summer flowers twine, And all their fragrant blossoms net With leaves of glossy vine. And with their sweetness stealeth slow A thought of hours gone by, All lighted Wthi a golden glow . Of sunset in the sky, And memories of the pathway fair That wound along the bay, ■iA<ad of one s-teeet hour wasted there One blessed summer day-. One little hour, along the shore, As arm in arm we strayed, And listened to the ceasless roar The restless waters made, And watched the shadows isi the deep, The sunlight on the land, And saw the tiny wavelets creep . '. To kiss the golden sand; Till all the glory seemed to die, And daylight was no more. And darkness crept along the sky, And silence on the shore. ^fhafr rrour is past^-it came and fled As all lifes beauties will; The roses—they are long since dead Upon the window sill; . The little porch is lying low, The shore is far away, And other eyes may watoh the glow - And sunset in the bay; And where the shining pathway gleariis, And on the gelden sand, Now other hearts may dream their dreams And other feet may stand. And softer sounds may come and go Upon the-summer air; And other lips may whisper low The word we whispered there; And other roses climb the wall, And wreathe the self-same spot, And blush at other vows let fall Like those that we—forgot.; But never shall an hour so bright Return to her or me, As that which left us when the light Grew, dark upon the sea> )X\$nXU\x%> THE POWER OF KINDNESS. Jack Sprout was a good husband and indulgent .father," an honest manyiaii accommodating neighbor, and he pos-. isessed'many other excellencies..ef char, acter which migtaj .'Jtave made him an (excellent member of society had it not •been .for certain loose h&bits whiah had ^marked his "course jfrom. childhood'. <His istirents'. had "been careles&.aHad: prone before him, his father had been® rough customer, bo Jack had naturally come in the same track. But" he was good looking and kind hearted, genial and social, and so had gained for a wife ^ne of the very best maidens of our I town, as well as one of the handsomest. Mastfer" Freddy Sprout, aged five iyears, stood by his mother's side;-with .a sad, tearful countenance, and his story was, that Solomon Gordon had [whipped him with a stick, and the boy's legs Still bore a few slight-tokens jof the castigation. Freddy, with some of his playmates, had been throwing ■stones at Mr. Gordon's dog and one of Freddy's missiles had hit the animal and caused him. to howl with pain. Of course the stone thrown by such tiny hands could not have inflicted much injury upon the canine brute, but Solomon Gordon loved his dog, and when he saw what had been done he caught Master Fseddy and gave him a sound thrashing; for be it known, Solomon Gordon was just such another man as Jack Sprout—warm hearted, generous and neighborlyfhut rough, uneducated, strong;willed ahd impulsive. Jack Sprout put on his hat and prepared to sally forth. His lips were pale and tightly compressed, and the huge muscles of his arms worked like bundles of rope. " Dear Jack," pleaded his wife, " don't go out now." " Let me alone. Abby. No man shall strike a child of mine without having a chance to strike me. I shall go and see Sol. Gordon, and I'll give him such a licking as he won't forget in a hurry." " No, no, Jack—don't go. What good will it do ? Wait until you are more cool." " Pshaw! Go away Abbey. There is not power enough oh earth to save Sol. Gordon from a drubbing, and I'll give it to him before the ^ungSfis down." And as Jack Sprout looked at that moment, he gave awfnl evidence that he was physically able to make good his word; a more magnificent structure of frame work and muscle was not to be found in the town. " Dear Jack," cried the wife, taking her husband by the arm, " Oh, do listen to me one moment; Freddy is not much hurt, and he ought not to have thrown stones at Gordon's dog; You know both Solomon and his wife set ewrything by the little animal, and he would not bark at the boys if they did not plague him. If you go and find Gordon as y<m are now, you will only make matters worse. Oh, I wish you would drop it. JaGk 6nly shook his head, and smiled one of those smiles which are terrible on the face of an angry man. " Oh, Jack, if you would only try the effect of kindness upon Solomon. He "is^a good man at heart"—> Jack interrupted his wife with a derisive sneer. " Don't laugh at me, Jack. I'll tell you it would be better to do so than to resort to blows. If you were attacked I should not blame you for trying to protect yourself; but this is not• the case that calls for your strength of mucles. There is a higher and a nobler strength that you can use now." " Oh, ho! " uttered Jack, " you are preaching. You are giving me some of your Sunday school. lessons. You may experience religion as much as y'tsh pleaSe> but you musri't preach the stuff to me»" " Jack," spoke the wife, with stern solemnity, " have I been worse since I have began to have an interest in religious things ? " " No, Abby—you were always good." " Then why 'Will you not listen to me ? If you will stay with me now—if you will wait until your anger is cooled—and then go and speak kindly to Solomon Gordon, I give you my solemn pledge-that yoii "will feel a thousand times better than you will if'you "— But Jack would not hear his wife out. He had said that fete would thrash Solomon Gordon, and he would keep his word. His temper was ^at the boiling point, and he was fairly aching to get his; fingers -on the: man who had dared to strike his boy; for Freddy was his pet, and every blow that had been laid upon the child's body had made a mark of fire upon hig own heart. So he put his wife away from him and hurried from the house, slamming.the door after him. Away went Jack Sprout with rapid, heavy strides ; and had Solomon Gordon fallen in his way just then he would have most assuredly been severely beaten, for though 8olomon was a stout, bold man, Jack was a very Hercules. But Jack was destined to get pretty thoroughly cooled off before he met the object of his wrath. As he approached the river just berowthe falls, he heard loud crie» of alarm, and upon hurrying forward he found that a boy had fallen from one of the projecting timbers into the water. He looked over the railing and saw the little fellow just coming to. the surface of the foaming, boiling flood—a curly headed boy just about the age of Mrs own daarling - Freddy— stretching forth his -tiny .-hands in an agony of despair. It was a terrible place, that seething) roaring pool. where*the waters of the great river came pouring down from over the dam ; but Jack did not hesitate. He forgot his enemy^—forgot everything but the danger of tbe little one—and only stopping to kick off his boots,'and throw aside his coat, he leaped down into the angry flood. -He caught the boy in his arms,, and'.-then struck for the sSore. It -was' a mighty*- conflict, but tK&stfo'ng.matfi perseyeredr More than once those who had gathered up- ian the rocks and upon the shore ted •reason to fear that neither the man nor the boy could cojne forth alive; bnj& Jack held his Qw*f against ;the:mad torrent, and &vaHy reached the shore where many hands were ready to help him. As for himself, a few minutes' action assured him that he was able to walk, and he sustained no injury safe a few trifling bruises. And as for the boy, he had come forth in safety, for Jack had held him high above the water during all the time of his struggle-. And when Jack Sprout had regained his breath and .was able to speak, he looked to see the boy that he had saved, and he saw that it was Andy Gordon, a bright-eyed, curly-headed, fair-faced boy, not a year older than was his son Freddy. "Where's papa?" asked the drip- Iping «hdld. " He is coming," answered some one in the crowd. Jack looked up and saw Solohioir Gordon coming—Solomon, pale and terror-stricken—and with all possible haste he seized his coat and boots and hurried away. He could not meet Solomon Gordon then. " Mercy ! what is it, Jack ? " Mrs. Sprout was alarmed. Her husband was dripping wet, his step was tottering, his breathing, was labored, and there was a livid mark on his forehead, as though he had received a heavy blowi " It is nothing, Abby." "Has Solomon"— " Pshaw! D'ye think Sol. Gordon could have done this? f have been in the river. A little boy had fallen from the bridge right into the flood beneath the falls. I jumped in and brought him out." "Alive?" " Yes, alive and unhurt." " Oh, thank God ! Whose child was it, Jack? " "Don't stop to ask {m^ii0118 nowi Abby, but make me a cup of hot, strong iaa, while I put oh some dry clothes. My soul! I think I had a narrow dodge of it 1 " Jack put on dry garments, and when he had rested awhile he drank his tea, and in the course of an hour all traces oi exhaustion had passed away. " I tell you, Abby, I have had a good many tough jobs-in my day, but I never had one like that. A weaker man than I could never have brought out that child alive." " Oh how grand it is, Jack, to use one's strength in such a cause ? But whose child was it ? Do you know ?" Before Jack could answer, the outer door was unceremoniously opened, and Solomon Gordon entered the apartment. . .Ahby shrank back in alarm when she saw how pale and excited the man was, ahd' how he trembled, for she ■dKlnot notice the -moist brimming light that shone in his swollen eyes; " Jack ! " said the new comer, in a gasping manner, at the same time holding out both his hands. He choked and stammered, but presently gained strength to add : " Oh, my God I what can 1 say? Jack! Jack I " Here the stout man broke fairly down, and burst into tears, . Jack, almost as much affected as was |as visitor, arose and took the extended hand. " Never mind' Sol. It's all right.""" "No, no I" cried Gordon. It isn't all right; it never can be right. Oh, What can I do ? Jack, if I could only f^p back to where I was .this morning ! ly God ! I beat your child for a trifling thing, and you saved: mine from a terrible death; saved him almost at the expense of your own life. Kill me if you will. Beat me, do anything you like, but onlv forgive me, so that this saying act of yours shan't be always like a heap of coals upon my head!" And then with sudden impulse, under the influence of such an emotion as he had never before experienced, Jack Sprout said: '■ Solomon^I tell you it's all right. You have np more reason to thank God that I saved your child than I have. When I went from my house I was full of wrathvand madness, and 'curses were upon my lips and in my ifeWfc. I should have sought such revenge as the wild beast seeksi Is it not better that I found your little Andy in the flood 1 And is it not better that my great strength was used in ■ saving his life? I forgive you from the bottom of my heart. And now I say it's all right." And so was cemented a friendship holy and lasting. Seemingly slight perturbations in the current of a man's life sometime* work marvelous changes for good or ill. " Abby," said Jack Sprout--r.it was late in the evening, and they had been sitting for some time without speaking—P I believe I am converted." "Jack! " " Yes, Abby, I am converted. Baul of Tarsus, that you read to Freddy about last'Sunday, was not more suddenly brought to light than I have been. Really and truly there is more virtue in kindness than in enmity; it blesses everything and everybody. He who bestows it is as much blessed as he who receives it." And then the wife, with her arm placed around her husband's neck, gently, kindly said : - Dear Jack, wouldn't We both be happier if we would iky to live by the blessed. *ules laid-down by our- Savior ? Oh, I know that they were given by one who sought our -highest good, and we should find much joy ih trying to square our. lives by the golden rule." V My darlinfr, we will taty." Great Agricultural Uo-is-trot at BU- lingg-ville. I JOSH'BILLINGS, REPORTER. Agricultur is the mother ov provisions ; she is also the grandmother. If it wa'nt for agricultur, thar wouldn't be enny beans, and if it wasn't for enny beans, there wouldn't be enny suckertash. - Agricultur wuz first discovered by Cain, and has since been discovered to be an honest'way to get a very hard living. Pumpkins owes all her success tew agricultur, and so does lettuce and buckwheatv The Billingsville Agricultural society opened October 10, and waz a powerfUll success. The receipts ov'the Agricultural Fair wuz Upwards of $30,000 (if mi memory serves me rite-, and i think she duz.) The Hon. Virgil Bickerttoff, the next agricultural member of Congress from our district, sold the agricultural poles. FUST DAY. A puss ov ten dollars wuz trotted for by sucking coifs, that had never trotted before for money. There wus thirteen entrys. Thar wus 60,000 people on the track to witness this race (if mi memory serves me rite, and I think she duz.) The puss wuz wun amid vociferous exclamations, by a red cold, and the wavin of handkerchiefs, with a red stripe in his face, and the fainting of several fust class females, and one white foot behind. " SEKUND DAT; It rained like a purpendiculat all day, and no trotting could be had) so the audience all went hum ciissin and swearettj and offerin ta het four to six on the Pete Tucker eolt. THIRD DAT. The sun lusted up in the east more beautifuller than i ever saw her before (if mi memory serves me rite, and i think she duz;) It Was a fustrate day for agricultur, or any other man. A puss of $ SO waz trotted for, by sum 2 year old colts. This race did not attract much attention, on account of the time bein so slow. Time, 2 minrts and thirty-eight seckonds. FOURTH DAT. This wuz for 3 or 4 years old, who hadn't never beat 2:25. Thar was 26 entrys; they couldn't awl trot to once, so they took turns. This race was won after a bitter contest by Pete Tucker's colt. He was immediately offered a thousand dollars and a fustrate farm which was well stocked, for the colt, by three different agricultural men'; with afgreat deal ov indignant good sense he scornd to stoop so low. Pete and his whole family are awl hoss; FIFTH DAY. It rained again harder than ever, and the day waa spent in betting oh the weight ov horses. Thar was several good hoss-swops also made. One mari swopped two hosses for one; this.struck me as a bully good thing,t but everybody else said it waz soft. At the end. of the fifth day i come Uway. I got so full of hoss that ever since when ilatigh i cant keep from whinner* ing. The fare Was continued for 10 days, and some ted hot time was made. . Two minits and 10 seconds was the fastest time made, (if my memory servs me rite, and i think she duz.) I forgot to say that there was tew span ov oxens on the ground, besides several spans of sheep, and a pile ov carrots, and' some worsted work, but they, didn't seem to attract enny sympathy. The people hanker for pure agricul tural hoss trots. A Little Boy's Rebuke. There was once a very old man who lived in the house of his son. The old man was deaf; his eyes were dim, and his legs weak and thin, "When he was at the table he could hardly hold his spoon, so much did his hand shake ; and at times he would spill his soup on the cloth. All this vexed his son and the son's wife; and they made the old man sit in a corner behind the stove. There he ate his food from an earthen-ware dish; and he had not always too much to eat as you may guess. One day his trembling hands,could not hold the dish, and it fell on the floor and broke. At this his son and his son's wife were so vexed that they spoke harshly to the old man. His only answer Was a deep, sad sigh. They then brought him a bowl made of wood, out of which he had to take his food. Not long after this," his~-little grandson, a boy of about four years of age,- was seen at work with a chisel and hammer, hollowing out a log of wood. His parents could not -guess what he was trying to do. The little boy said nothing to any one"but kept at work on the log, and looked grave, as if he had some great work in hand. " What are you doing there?" asked his father. The little boy did not want to tell. Then his mother asked',— "What are you doing, my son? " "Oh I'.' said he, "I am only hiakiiig a little trough, such as our pigs eat out of. " " But what are you making it for, my. son?"." " I am making it," said he, '• for yon- and father to eat out of when I am a man." The parents looked at each other and burst into tears. - From that time forth they treated the old 'man well. He had the best place at the" table, a nice dish, and plenty of food. Title For Sale.—A Lecture Incident. The editor of the New York Independent, Theodore Tilton, advertises a "reverend" for sale—he can't give a clear title to the property—-as follows : For Sale.—The editor of this Journal wishes to dispose of a title of Reverend which teaihe accidentally into his possession a few months ago, while traveling through the West. Being a layman, having therefore no use for-it, and fearing the consequences of retaining it till the season of college commences, he will now part with it on liberal terms. None but Orthodox Con- gregationalists need apply. When Mr. Tilton lectured here a couple of years ago, before the Young Men's Association, he was introduced as "Reverend Theodore .Tilbm-" He turned the mistake over to the gentleman who introduced him, as follows: "Ladies and gentlemen, the gentleman who has been announced for the lecture ^his evening is not here tonight. I think you iwill never have the pleasure of listening to him—he never gets go far West. On one occasion a good lady had Charles Lamb for a^guest at dinner, with several other literary characters. His white neck tie and serious countenance caused his hostess to imagine . that he was a very devout man. So whgn the guests were seated at the table^ she says:. ' Mr. iajthh, wOl you Say grace?'' Lamb trembled, and looked around, at the guests. ' Is there no c-c-c-clergyman pres-- ent?' he asked. • j None, I believe,' replied the lady. ' L-1-l-let us thank God, then;' was the meek response^ as Lamb bowed reverently over his plate." The audience did not allow Mr. Tilton to proceed for several minutes.— Dubuque Times. When Watt sat ih the chimney corner, observing the water force up the lid of the tea-kettle, he aroused the anger of his relations-, but he was discovering the steam engine. The uncle of Pliny reproved him for traveling afoot, which- he called losing time. Hqw much truer was the eOhfessiori of Warburton to his friend, "It would have be«n the greatest pleasure to have dropped upon you at N . I could have led you through delicious paths, and picked off for your amusement in our rambles a thousand notions, which hung upon every thorn, as I 'passed thirty years ago." They whom the world oalls idle often do the most. In villages and by- lanes a few eyes are always learning. A garden, a wood, even a pool of water, often encloses a whole library of knowl1 edge^ Waiting to -be reaped—precious types which nature, in her great print-: ing-pressj never breaxs up. And surfe* ly he is happy who is thus taught; for no man can afford to be really uhem: ployed. The tree, it has been said, may lose its verdure ; the sun need not count its rays: because the sap""will striK.e out new foliage, an'd another night refills the treasury of day.

Jose Mourinho not set on starting-XI
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has admitted he has not yet settled on his best starting line-up.
• Worrall: Crisis? Chelsea critics are 'having a laugh'
• Delaney: Chelsea's win doesn't ease pressure on Mourinho
• Juan Mata axe baffles Avram Grant
Mourinho has chopped and changed his squad in the opening weeks of the campaign with the Blues boss coming under fire for a number of contentious decisions.
Both Juan Mata and David Luiz have endured tough starts to life under Mourinho with both stars not required for the recent victory over Fulham.
But Mourinho has refused to close the door on any player at Stamford Bridge, claiming it was up to the players to force their way into his first-XI.
"Of course, I don't know," Mourinho told Chelsea TV.
"But the players have to give me the answers. I cannot dig and dig and dig looking for the best team. The players must give me the answer.
"Do I have a doubt that [Branislav] Ivanovic is in this moment my right-back? I have no doubt. You see the way the guy performs. So it is up to them.
"If somebody is waiting for me to give shirts because of status and history, that's not the point. Of course, I have some doubts in some positions and I think it's normal."
And Mourinho will need his entire squad firing in the upcoming weeks, believing improvement is needed as the club travel away from Stamford Bridge for the next four fixtures.
"The situation is difficult, we have already played away to Manchester United and Everton," Mourinho said.
"We have won all the matches at home and have nine points from that. Now we go away for four consecutive matches. In the Premier League we have Tottenham and Norwich, and go to Bucharest [to play Steaua in the UEFA Champions League] and Swindon [in the Capital One Cup].
"We have to improve away, get results. At our house, we have to be better, not just win, play better and score more goals. This is our objective.
"The good thing is that we're not being lucky but we're there [in the league] with 10 points and the period is not good, the results are not brilliant."

please take note of this important message from the Marin County Parks Department reporting on incidents near Blithedale Summit Open Space Preserve
Man Allegedly Misrepresenting Himself as Open Space Ranger
Visitors to the Blithedale Summit Open Space Preserve above Mill Valley and Corte Madera are cautioned to be watchful for a non-uniformed man misrepresenting himself as a Marin County Open Space District ranger.
Two incidents have been reported on or near Blithedale Summit Fire Road within the past month. The man is alleged to have provided incorrect information to visitors walking dogs regarding the Open Space District's rules pertaining to dogs. In one incident, he is alleged to have kicked a dog and taken photographs of the visitors, both women, with his cell phone.
The man is described as white, in his 40s, 5-foot-10 to 6 feet tall, with short salt-and-pepper hair, and very fit. He said his name was Dave Stevenson and that he worked for "the department." At the time of the incidents, he was wearing black and silver bicycling clothing and possessed a black mountain bike.
The man is not employed by or associated with Marin County Parks or the Marin County Open Space District. While on duty in open space preserves, rangers are always in uniform.
Marin County Parks is investigating the incidents. Others who may have interacted with a man matching that description, or who may have witnessed similar interactions, are urged to contact Marin County Parks at 415-473-2816.

The 2014 Sausalito Art Festival American Icon Art Competition invites artists of every caliber throughout the world, to express their vision of America using their mobile device.
The competition requires you to photograph an image that represents your individual idea of what an American icon is. Is your vision a '65 Mustang Convertible or the Golden Gate Bridge?

The competition gives artists of all levels the unique platform to express their vision of America. It is up to the artist to choose an image(s) that in their minds is iconic of America based on their personal experiences, upbringing and beliefs. There's only one caveat: your American Icon image must be captured on a mobile device.Which means almost everyone in the world, professional, amateur, student,or social networking mavens can participate. It's that simple.

About the Exhibition and Competition
Inaugurated as part of the 60th anniversary of the Sausalito Art Festival in 2012, the competition was conceived as a way to welcome artists of all skill levels to exhibit at the festival, unrestricted by geography and focusing on a different theme every year that celebrates one of the world's most recognized icons. Last year, that icon was the American Flag; in 2012 it was the Golden Gate Bridge.
Every work of art submitted to the American Icon Art Competition will be included in the presentation video at the SAF as well as on the American Icon website, www.americanicon.net, enabling those who cannot attend the Sausalito Art Festival and American Art Icon Exhibition to see all of the images.
The exhibition will be on display in a dedicated exhibit venue on the festival site at Marinship Park along the Sausalito waterfront, presented on a large-format screen as a high-definition video with a special dedicated sound score. The entire American Icon show – from digital submissions to digital exhibit, makes the competition very global and very green; there is no shipping, no travel, no fossil fuel expended.

A PRISON source is calling for a public investigation after a report claims the closure of Dorchester prison led to a 'huge waste of taxpayers' money'.
An Echo investigation in November exclusively revealed that thousands of pounds of equipment and furniture was being destroyed at the North Square Jail.
The Independent Monitoring Board (IMB) produced its report covering HMP Dorchester's final year in operation.
It states that the closure did lead to a 'huge waste of taxpayers' money'.
The county town jail shut its doors for the final time in December last year after it was one of four prisons earmarked for closure by the government.
The prison insider told the Echo about his 'disgust' at the waste of equipment and furniture, which could have been donated to the community or charity.
The report raised issues with elements of the closure process itself, stating that although it was 'carried out with speed and efficiency' there were a number of concerns.
It stated: "There was undoubtedly a great deal of waste.
"Many furnishings and equipment, deemed not to be capable of use at other prisons, were placed in skips for disposal.
"The IMB shares the view of staff that this displayed a huge waste of taxpayers' money and unimaginative exploration of potential recycling opportunities to other areas of the public or charity sectors."
The prison source added: "This report confirms these actions by the Ministry of Justice and the senior management of Dorchester Prison were more severe than those of some of the criminals interned there.
"I really cannot find the words to express my disgust."
"The disposal of tools and equipment into skips for disposal was top quality professional equipment, for example battery operated hammer drills that cost £400 upwards and woodworking equipment that cost up to £4,000 - the list goes on.
"All of this equipment was in very good working condition."
The insider added: "This has to be added to the £27 million spent on the prison over the past years, including the brand new hospital that was only open for six weeks before the prison closure was announced.
"This is about the actions that took place in a time of austerity, when council tax is rising and harsh cuts are being made throughout the country which we read in the paper every day."
He said: "There should be a public investigation.
"Unfortunately, I don't think the crime committed will ever be answered truthfully as those in office are without scruples, caring only for themselves, not others."
The IMB report states that there also should have been 'greater coordination' with the Ministry of Justice over the investment of £2.4million in a new medical centre in the summer of 2013.
The Echo revealed in September that more than £7.3m has been wasted on refurbishing the prison in the last three years.
It includes a £1.3m medical suite as well as a new roof, windows and visitor centre.
The prison source said: "A lot of the equipment in the new building was made for Dorchester so cannot be used elsewhere - the public are being misled.
"Why couldn't these items and furniture have been used in the community?"
The prison source also hit out against the deployment of staff from the North Square jail to other prisons across the country, racking up huge hotel, living and travel costs, as previously reported in the Echo.
WHEN contacted by the Echo about the issue in November, a Ministry of Justice spokesman said: "Materials which are in a suitable condition will be passed on to other prisons for use.
"Resources which are deemed not fit for purpose will be disposed of or recycled.
"We need a fit for purpose, modern prison estate which provides affordable, modern prison accommodation and in the right places to deliver our ambition of reducing reoffending.
"In order to do this, we are currently replacing older prisons with newer, more efficient, accommodation at a much lower cost to the hard working taxpayer."
THE REPORT raised further concerns about healthcare and education at the now closed facility that prisoners faced a long wait for mental health problems to be assessed and prisoners who were sectioned had to often wait longer for a secure bed than they should have.
The board received information about other healthcare issues such as the time taken to confirm prescribed medications and prisoners disagreeing with their treatment.
In terms of education the IMB also claimed many prisoners were unable to complete courses they had started due to interruptions from court appearances, legal visits or 'the constraints if the prison's regime'.
The IMB backed comments made by prisons minister Jeremy Wright that the closure should in no way be seen as a 'reflection of the hard work and commitment of the staff, nor the prison's performance'.

The Calling releases statement on frontman's attack
Listen to The Calling on iHeartRadio
The Calling frontman Alex Band is clarifying a few of the rumors surrounding the attack that he says left him "near death." In a statement released by the group, he insists that the story is not a hoax and says speculation that the incident was drug-related is "categorically false."
Band says he was attacked early Sunday morning by assailants who beat him with a baton, pointed a gun at his face, and demanded he hand over his "Hollywood money." Band claims he told his attackers that he was "about to be a dad," which, apparently, is the only reason they let him live. The suspects reportedly said they "don't kill fathers" before leaving Band at a local railroad track in Lapeer, Michigan.
According to the release, the rocker suffered a fractured lower spine, three broken teeth, a bruised side and stomach, and cuts to his chin that required 15 stitches. Police say the attack remains under investigation.

President Obama: 'No patience' for 'outrageous' IRS mess
President Barack Obama said Monday that the alleged Internal Revenue Service targeting of conservative political groups for extra scrutiny is "outrageous," and promised those responsible would be "held accountable."
"You don't want the IRS ever being perceived to be biased and anything less than neutral in terms of how they operate," Obama said at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron. "I've got no patience with it, I will not tolerate it and we will make sure we find out exactly what happened on this."
Obama's comments were his first on the situation since the IRS's scrutiny of groups with "tea party" and "patriot" in their names came to light on Friday. The IRS also targeted groups working to make "America a better place to live" and ones focused on government spending and debt, according to a draft report from the agency's investigator general. The president said he learned of the IRS misbehavior in the news reports that emerged Friday.

The question of the decade: Why isn't Wall Street in jail?
In a typical jaw-dropping article for Rolling Stone Magazine The Real Housewives of Wall Street, Matt Taibbi reveals the shocking practices of the Federal Reserve during the Great Recession.
With the nation staggering, the Federal Reserve took it upon itself to lend trillions of dollars at nearly zero percent interest. Then, as collateral, the Fed took the securities that were bought with the loans. The arrangement meant that if the securities lost money, the Fed would be stuck with the losses but if the securities made money, then the investors would pay back the loans and keep the higher priced security. Privatizing gains, socializing losses, all in an effort to stimulate the economy. Such loans were not made available to everyday folks; only to the important pillars of our economy: Japanese car companies (while bailing out their competitors), Middle Eastern banks (including one later bought by Muammar Gaddafi), tax dodgers in the Cayman Islands (imagine, subsidizing tax evasion), and the spouses of Wall Street executives. No, that isn't a typo, the wives of Wall Street executives were offered risk free loans guaranteed by you, the taxpayer.
Taibbi looks at the case of Christy Mack and Susan Karches, the wife and widow respectively of the CEO and the late president of investment banking at Morgan Stanley. While Morgan Stanley itself received over $2 trillion in Federal Reserve risk free, subsidized loans, Christy and Susan also received $220 million for their company, Waterfall TALF Opportunity. With the money, the duo bought student loans and commercial mortgages. If the loans or mortgages ever decrease in value, Waterfall effectively will not have to pay back the Fed and let the Fed keep the devalued securities.

We've had a busy week following charter school news. Here's some Internet resources you might find interesting.
First, the links to the Ohio Policy Matters report on Imagine Schools.To read more or comment...
Just got this press release regarding a lawsuit filed against Akron-based White Hat Management by several of the Hope Academy and Life Skills charter schools under its management in Akron and Cleveland. Read the filing here. The press release is here.
"Charter schools were created to free children trapped in failing public schools and give parents a desperately needed educational option," said April Hart, legal counsel for the schools. "The Governing Boards of Hope Academies and Life Skills are community members who seek to ensure that state and federal dollars directly benefit the students. White Hat Management is a for profit company. Its interest in making a profit often conflicts with the schools' goal to educate and show student progress. There are no real rules in place to make White Hat fully account for the non-profit dollars they receive to manage Ohio charters. It's the big elephant in the room that seems to slip by the legislature every year."To read more or comment...
The Akron school board may decide to lay off teachers and other staff in a special meeting tonight.
Superintendent David James will discuss the district's finances and staffing recommendations privately with the board when the meeting starts at 5:30 p.m., but the board will discuss the matter publicly and possibly vote on layoffs.
"The board will go into executive session first and come out after that, have a discussion and may take some action," James said on Monday morning. "Once they come out, there probably will be a presentation to them in open session."
The next regular school board meeting is scheduled for next Monday, May 24, but that would be too late to meet notification requirements in the teachers' union contract.
"If there are going to be any staff reductions, there are some deadlines," James said. "For instance, the teachers, they have to know about any openings or reductions by Thursday."
Layoffs typically are done by seniority. A recent report from the National Council for Teacher Quality summarized the issues surrounding layoff by seniority. The report was favorably reviewed by the Great Lakes Center for Education Research & Practice.To read more or comment...

I was on the phone with Northwest superintendent Bill Stetler when Stark County Elections Board reached 100 percent. (Midnight update: Stark, it turns out is just over 50 percent counted, but Northwest is passing comfortably). I heard the roar of cheers at the Salt Box Ministry building in Canal Fulton. Northwest passed a 1 percent earned income tax after losing the last 10 tries at the ballot by waging an unprecedented community campaign. I'm sure other districts will want to know how they did it. So do we. More to come.
2 a.m. update: my apologies to Highland. In some of our newspapers tomorrow we'll have the wrong result. Highland narrowly lost. We were under tight deadlines tonight and I thought Medina had counted 100 percent, but that was only for electronic ballots. There's always some paper ballots that get counted after the electronic ones and apparently those were enough to switch a close election against Highland. So we'll be making corrections tomorrow.To read more or comment...

Chely Wright Turns To Kickstarter To Fund New Album
Listen to Chely Wright Radio on iHeartRadio
Chely Wright is making a musical comeback. The country singer is looking to fund her new studio project through Kickstarter. Her new disc will be her first since 2010's Lifted Off The Ground.
The album arrived on the same day as her memoir, Like Me, in which she officially came out and became the first openly-gay country star. And Chely admits on her Kickstarter page that a lot has happened over the past four years - including getting married and becoming a mom. She adds that throughout it all she's been writing songs which she's excited for her fans to hear.
In just a week Wright had pledges totaling more than a third of the $175,000 she's hoping to raise. Her fundraising effort runs through October 9th.

Hullo, Graham here again. If you're reading this then I have a feeling that you probably like video games*, so I'm gonna' tell you exactly how to get into the most glamorous industry this side of the dog-food preparation one...
...The video game industry!
I feel like that last bit was redundant.
Now, I can obviously only speak from experience, but of all the Graham Gorings I interviewed for this piece, a staggering ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of them made it into the video game industry by following these three simple steps - so I see no reason it won't work for you, too.
1) Play lots of video games instead of doing homework.
Oh sure, doing homework will give you an essential grounding in a wide variety of skills meaning that on the off-chance that the whole video game thing doesn't work out that you've plenty to fall back on...
...but doing homework just shows you aren't serious about getting into the industry! And you are serious, aren't you? I am. I couldn't be any more serious if I was that dude from Harry Potter who can turn into a dog.
2) Choose the wrong course at university, flunk out after a year and then work in a soul-crushing dead-end job answering phone calls for a further four years.
Yeah, okay, bit of an unconventional approach but you can't argue with the results. I mean, who's the guy with the blog on the LEGO website here? Is it me or you? That's right, it's me. Unless you're Jonathan Smith, Nick Ricks or Jimmy McLoughlin - but I'm pretty sure you guys flunked out of uni, too, right?
And yes, that will take five years instead of the three years a reputable university course would, but that means you'll have less student loans. And - if you choose the right will-sapping job - you can goof off and play video games on the sly during work hours.
3) Go back in time to 1999, strike up a friendship with the owner of a video game company and then parlay that into a job interview.
Right, I'll admit that one does require a leeeeetle bit more effort than most - but do you want this job or not? Well? WELL?! DO YOU?!
And there you go! Congratulations! You're in the industry!
Kiss your spare time goodbye.
* I know! It's like I can read your mind**.
** And on that subject, don't buy that house you're thinking about - it's haunted by space-pirates.
*** Or Mrs. Or Ms, Miss or Dr. Although if you're doctor, what are you doing trying get into the games industry? Go and heal someone - your parents will be very disappointed if you squander your medical training.

Orlando Bloom opens up about Miranda Kerr split
(Yahoo!) - All Hollywood breakups should be this graceful.
Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr, who announced their separation after three years of marriage last week, continue to model perfect post-split behavior.
In an appearance on "Katie" that airs Friday, Bloom had only kind words for the former Victoria's Secret model and the mother of his 2-year-old son, Flynn.
"We love each other, we're a family," he said. "We're going to be in each other's lives for the rest of our lives. There's no question for the sake of our son and everything else, we're going to support one another and love each other as parents to Flynn."
Bloom added, "And you know, life does't always work out exactly as we plan or hope for but fortunately we're both … we're adults. We love and care about each other and we, most of all, love our son."
The two were also seen acting affectionate on Saturday when they took Flynn for a walk through NYC's Central Park. The family outing happened just two days after the shocking news of their breakup.
"In a joint statement, Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr have announced that they have been amicably separated for the past few months," their reps told omg!. "After six years together, they have recently decided to formalize their separation. Despite this being the end of their marriage, they love, support and respect each other as both parents of their son and as family."
This is one time that we truly believe the amicable part!

Computer Science
Computer science graduates are prepared to work in an ever-changing technological world. Job opportunities with highly competitive salaries are open in computer system architecture, programming, training, management, and operational specialties in all areas of the economy: retailing, banking, manufacturing, agriculture, service, education, and government, as well as computer manufacturing and software development.
About 1.2 million people are currently employed in the California Information and Technology (ICT) Workforce, across all industries. That is roughly 1 in 20 California private sector jobs. California will create 30,000 new ICT Workforce jobs and more than 80,000 ICT Workforce job openings due to replacements, for a total of more than 110,000 new and replacement jobs between 2011 and 2013. ICT Industry firms expect 8.5% employment growth and non-ICT industry companies expect -0.4% employment growth over the next 2 years. In California, the median ICT Workforce hourly wage is about 60% higher than the median wage for all jobs. Information is the second highest paying industry sector in California, after utilities. With annual earnings per worker of about $110,000, the information industry sector pays 90% higher wages than the average across all other industries in the state.
Programming is an indispensable tool in engineering, technology and many other scientific and technical fields. However, programming is a means to explore the processes of reasoning that is found between and among several different programming languages. Computer science also concentrates on areas such as artificial intelligence, graphics, distributed systems, robotics, machine vision, numerical analysis and applications of computing in other fields.
Computer science courses require a firm understanding of critical issues and concepts of computer science: problem analysis, data abstraction, algorithm development, program implementation, testing and validation, computer organization and basic system control. Other courses in the curriculum focus on skills needed for essential activities such as communicating, designing logical programs, working as a member of a project team and understanding potential areas of application. All computer science courses have both lecture and lab components. In computer labs, students analyze problems and then proceed to design, write and debug computer programs. Studying computer science demands a substantial time commitment; therefore, students should be prepared to spend a considerable amount of time on coursework.

Federal agents use NSA wiretaps to prosecute Americans
(NEWSER) – If you've never heard of the SOD, that's understandable: It's the Special Operations Division, an arm of the DEA that was founded nearly two decades ago with an eye on Latin American cartels and designed to be secretive (so much so its exact Virginia location is under wraps). Why should it be on your radar? Because of this new report by Reuters, which is based on a review of documents. It finds that the division often provides tips used to nab suspected American criminals—then directs authorities to wipe the SOD's information from any subsequent case and instead "re-create the information" it provided, thereby masking the source of the tip from defendants and even prosecutors and judges. And that, Reuters explains, could violate a defendant's constitutional right to a fair trial, because it fouls up pretrial discovery rules.

2 Hunters in Brazil Killed ... by Giant Anteaters
(NEWSER) – Some 5,000 giant anteaters are thought to exist in the wild, and encounters with humans are rare and largely harmless. The hairy animals with long noses and an appetite for insects do sport "pocketknives" for front claws,AFP reports, which they typically put to use digging into anthills. In two separate incidents in Brazil, however, the 4- to 7-foot-long animals have dug into people instead, and the hunters who encountered them bled to death after being punctured in their thighs and upper arms; one man was hit in the femoral arteries. Both cases, one in 2010 and one in 2012, have just been described in scientific literature this month.

Muscle pain is common to both men and women irrespective of their age. People usually resort to painkillers in order to receive temporary relief, but taking too much of these can affect your health adversely. Ayurveda provides effective ways to heal muscle pain.
The following few ways to treat muscle pain can be taken into notice:
1. Regular exercise- Regular exercise can help you treat muscle pain. Yoga can prove to be very helpful. You may try lotus pose, cobra pose, boat pose among many others to get relief from muscle pain.
2. Panchakarma- Panchakarma is a therapeutic treatment, which can help you heal your muscle pain. It includes five steps vamana, virechana, nasya, basti, raktamokshana, which will clean your body and mind from toxins and can also offer relief from pain.
3. Abhyanga-This process is suggested in ayurveda to offer relief from muscular pain. It involves applying oil all over your body followed by a warm bath.
4. Healthy diet- Having freshly cooked food and including green vegetables and spices like cumin, ginger, turmeric in your diet can help you to combat your problem of muscle pain.
5. Use of ice cubes- Applying ice cubes over the area of muscle pain can help you get some relief.
6. Foods to avoid- Avoiding food items like curd, sugar, refined cereal, rice, potato and sour food can help you to reduce muscle pain.
7. Ayurvedic Herbs- Ayurveda also offers many herbs, which can help you find relief from your muscle pain.
8. Obesity- Avoid gaining excess weight. Being overweight can increase muscle pain.
Arthritis is a common musculoskeletal condition that affects elderly men and women. Joint pain, stiffness and inflammation are the most common symptoms of this condition. This pain can get so bad as to affect your movement and leave you unable to do simple things like walking up stairs or even simply turning a doorknob.
Arthritis cannot be reversed but with medication and a few lifestyle changes, your quality of life can be improved.
- Exercise and weight loss: Though it is difficult to do, losing weight can help relieve the pain of arthritis. This takes the pressure off your joints and increases the range of possible motions. Though exercising may be the last thing you want to do, it can help increase your flexibility and help strengthen your muscles. Aerobics, stretching and strength training are ideal for arthritic patients.
- Assistive devices: Arthritis can make a person knock kneed or bow legged. Wearing unloading braces, shoe inserts or walking with a cane or shoe inserts can help redistribute your weight and take the pressure of your joints. It can also help relieve pain and prevent arthritis from worsening.
- Eating right: Some types of food can worsen arthritic symptoms. This includes processed foods like white flour and sugar, yeast, chemical additives, gluten, hydrogenated and trans fats, milk products, caffeine, alcohol and tobacco. Hence, avoid consuming these foods and instead have a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, nuts and whole grain. You could also try alkaline foods like green leafy vegetables, wheatgrass and aloe vera.
- Massage therapy: A massage not only de-stresses the body, but can also relieve muscle and joint pain by improving blood circulation. Massages also help break up muscular waste deposits and increase the amount of oxygen circulated in the body. This helps transport nutrients to tissues and carries toxins away. Ideally, an arthritic patient should have a massage 2-3 times a week in the beginning and at least twice a month once the condition has stabilised.
- Supplements: Along with eating healthy, including a few supplements in your daily diet can also help alleviate arthritic symptoms. When it comes to rheumatic arthritis; the anti-inflammatory properties of vitamin C help fight arthritis by promoting bone and cartilage growth and reducing infection. Fish oil is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids that help reduce inflammation, Vitamin D is another supplement that helps relieve arthritic pain by helping the bones absorb calcium faster and preventing further loss of cartilage. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult an Orthopedist.

Zac Posen Pre-Fall 2014
"[He] viewed the female form as an armature on which to build his highly sculptural pieces. To give strength and shape to the luxurious fabrics he favored, [he] often underpinned them with a framework of millinery wire and buckram for bombast. Though his dresses weighed up to eighteen pounds, his technical prowess ensured that the wearer moved as gracefully as a ballerina." This is the Voguepedia entry for American courtier Charles James. It also could apply to Zac Posen who, as a designer unwaveringly committed to his particular vision of outsize glamour and silhouette, is poised to be the James of his generation. So next spring when the Costume Institute celebrates "Charles James: Beyond Fashion" with the annual opening-night gala, you better bet Posen will be ready with dresses. "This is in preparation for the Met," the designer said with a smile during his pre-fall presentation when a model swanned out wearing a satin dove-gray confection. It was strapless with goodness only knows what kind of interior scaffolding holding it close to the body, tucked to the waist and then, whoosh, out in waves of fabric that skimmed so elegantly along the floor the model may as well have been on a hovercraft. As if this weren't enough, Posen inserted undulations of a slightly darker fabric to add texture and tone. Another dress with an exaggerated ball skirt was made entirely of embroidered organza.
Not everything was quite so dramatic—though Posen did find a way to dramatize a white cotton poplin shirt with three tiers of fabric cascading down the back. He used a menswear-inspired gray flannel for a long-sleeved day dress with a cocoon-like cape, and a slim tulip skirt was made in a python-patterned jacquard. For anyone going to the Met, it'd be a fitting look for the morning after.
