Page 58
Parkway in the State of North Carolina all right, title, and interest of the United States and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians in such land and the timber thereon, to be determined as hereinafter provided, within the Cherokee Indian Reservation in the State of North Carolina as may be necessary for the construction and maintenance of such parkway over the following course: Beginning at a point in State Highway Numbered 293 near Soco Gap and extending to a junction with State Highway Numbered 107, near the mouth of the Ravens Fork of the Oconoluftee River by way of the following approximate controls: Leaving Soco Gap and following the east and northerly slopes of Soco and Bunches Bald ridge and crossing through Docks Gap to the south and west side of Soco and Bunches Bald; thence crossing Lickstone Ridge and entering Bunches Gap from the south; thence from Bunches Gap, following the south slopes of the main ridge, crossing Jenkins Divide ridge and entering Big Witch Gap from the southeast; thence leaving Big Witch Gap in a northwesterly direction and keeping on the northerly and westerly slopes of the main ridge, but crossing the various spur ridges circling around the heads of Mingo Creek and Sherrills Cove, and around the north end of the ridge lying immediately northeast of the Ravensford Mill site, crossing the Oconoluftee River to the junction with State Highway Numbered 107, previously referred to, and in addition, starting in a northeasterly direction from Bunches Gap passing about one-half mile north of Soco Bald; thence turning north and intersecting the boundary between the Qualla Indian Reservation and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park at a point approximately one mile northeast of Bunches Gap.
Before making such conveyance, the Secretary of the Interior shall have the lands along such course surveyed and shall determine the exact location and boundaries of the land to be conveyed for use as such right-of-way, which shall not exceed one hundred and twenty-five acres per mile.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
All the staff were exceptionally polite and helpful, especially the staff at reception, and the restaurant was of a good standard.
quiteness, close to town centre,spacious garden pool water was not heated and a bit too cold
Spa facilities, swimming pool area and the hotel grounds and decor were very nice. Staff were also very attentive. Free wifi in the bedrooms. My room was very small although I was advised of this when booking so can't complain, there are a couple like this, and based on other reviews, most rooms are larger (although this would cost extra to the 185€ we paid per night). My main issue was the cost of any extras in the hotel. Menu prices and drinks were extortionate even if it has a michelin star. Since it's a good 10 minute drive from Avignon, if you don't have a car, you have to go by Taxi, and for some reason that costed around 25€ each one way journey too, making it an expensive couple of days. Not sure if it's normal, but the taxi drivers seemed to start their meter when they were called by the hotel, so the starting tariff would range from 6.50€ to 8.50€ which isn't great.
The staff were very attentive and polite. The layout and facilities in the hotel were lovely and there was a lot of attention to detail. Lovely scented rooms.
The hotel doesn't look like much from the outside, but once through the doors a large, beautiful courtyard (very well maintained) appears. Nice pool area, and well appointed spa area. Fantastic meal at the restaurant. Very friendly staff. The location is a little "off the beaten path", and you need a car to get anywhere. Overall, a little pricey (both room rate and restaurant).
Very nice and quiet! Excellent Dinner. Very friendly staff. Secure place and parking ground. Close to Avignon. Will come back...
The friendliness of the staff and the food was fantastic Need a map to get there!!!
We absolutely loved this hotel! It has lots of Provencial charm and our room was very pretty and spacious. It is the perfect place to stay in Provence if you don't want to be with all the crowds in Avignon center. It is about a 10 minute drive to Avignon and easy access to other areas of the Luberon region. There are no restaraunts nearby so you will need a car for sure. The hotel has wonderful food but is pricey. It has a great outdoor pool, indoor pool with spa, very lush landscaping and beautiful patios. Very attentive service and wonderful personel.
Relaxing, clean and friendly Too expensive by far and poor location
We knew this hotel from a previous stay 10 years ago, it was nice to find out that it still matched our expectations. The restaurant as good as ever.
perfect kitchen and stuff, nice pool and atmosphere
The service was excellent, the food was out of this world (congratulations to the chef), overall the staff was very friendly and helped regarding all our requests. Relaxed atmosphere No, we were very happy. Clients should be aware that although the rooms are very reasonably priced (semi-luxurious, I would say), the restaurant is very expensive. But it was well worth it. The food was stupendous.
Great Service and Food, very rustic and very french Air conditioning did not work very well in the room because of poor design
The staffs of hotel are very nice and friendly. Dinner was excellent and especially enjoyed to see wine list which had a lot of reasonable priced bordeaux grand vin of good vintage.
The hotel is beautiful with excellent grounds. First class restaurant. The air-conditioning in our room did not work which made for a very hot night. Staff were informed but took no action.
A charming inn rich with history. The grounds are beautiful and one of the best bathrooms we have had in France. A lovely place if money is no object, although we did get three nights for the price of two on the booking.com site. The meals were over the top expensive. We were seated in the dining room and the owner came in and told my husband he should be wearing a jacket for dinner. This embarrassing situation could have been avoided if the website had indicated their policy or strong suggestion for dress attire. Because of this, we chose not to eat subsequent meals at the hotel and dined elsewhere.
We liked this typical atmosphere one gets in French Hotels et Chateaux, unique in the world. We also liked the central situation in the Provence, close to Avignon, very close to the highway. no complaints
Standard of hotel A1 100% top notch, as too were the staff. Fantastic location, ditto premises and attention to detail. Totally perfect in every way, could not have been better. We will return.....
Accomodation is very complete, staff is professional. The ambiance is nice (manor and chapel). Swimming pool relatively big. The elevator in the chapel is very slow and the carpet in it has to be cleaned. But this is a minor issue.
Room was good and breakfast was excellent No swimming pool
Friendly staff, cleanliness, excellent value for the cost
close to restaurants and shopping mall. The front desk counter was friendly and helpful the parking compound was dusty.
Silence, gardens and staffs Due to very weak signal reception, WIFI internet access is not available as described
convenience too many little things were annoying at this hotel 1) canvas chair on my terrace broke as I sat in it, should have been noticed as defective. 2) no light in closet, and closet door hard to open as bed side table in the way 3) toilet room no where near sink, hard to wash hands, 3) restaurant rather grim and food only ordinary (unusual for France) 4) poolside noisy and crowded 5) No newspapers in the morning as at all other good hotels 5) my bath tub and sink dribbled the water in and out...took 35 minutes to fill tub 6) did not clean room until 2:00PM
Staff was very kind. Make you feel the most important guest in the hotel. The room was clean and nice, exacty as I expected. Breakfast is too expensive.
Away from the centre of the old city, which was packed because of the Avignon Festival. Peace and quiet with rest and relaxation by the swimming pool could be followed by a short drive into the centre and some sight seeing.
Staff very helpful especially reception.Food was very good aswell. Expensive for the quality of the rooms-the hotel definitely needs to be refurbished and updated.There were no lounges/sitting areas and the restaurant/swimming pool area felt very cramped.Overall very expensive.For some reason my booking (I cancelled and then rebooked at a cheaper rate) didn't reach the hotel-luckily the hotel had a room.We moved after two nights.
Everything!! We had eaten at this hotel two years ago, and decided to spend a very special anniversary for one night en route to St Tropez. The room was very comfortable overlooking the beautiful gardens and swimming pool. Food was wonderful, tasty and well presented. A place to return to!
We found the hotel to be very relaxing and peaceful. The staff were helpful and the food very good. The only slightly disappointing item was the Breakfast Buffet. Rather limited and unexciting.
This is a beautiful countryside hotel. The room, the facilities and the view were beautiful. the air conditioning was broken and while it was fixed, the overall cooling at the hotel was not working very well during all our stay. Restaurant and breakfast are very expensive
very good michelin starred restaurant, quiet location in a garden the room was charged at 170 euros whereas the booking was made at 165 euros. This was only noticed later.
Pleasant staff and comfortable room.
close to highway to Avignon Rooms are tiny.
friendly staff,good cuisine,location not the top but avignon center easy reachable... to change tv screen...
Good breakfast and staff was very friendly. Room was small, but for the price, it was appropriate.
good environment The hotel stuff are very friendly.
excellent for money.The breakfast could be better,but it's ok for France.
People welcoming you instead of credit cards machines. Canal +
It was basic facilities but good. Breakfast was good. Only the smoke odour in the room
very friendly and helpful staff made us feel welcome and want to return small room and bathroom
Car parking Hotel was difficult to find, small bathroom.
It was comfortable,clean and friendly and helpful staff.It was handy for trips to town but difficult to get to town when the buses were not running for a public holiday. The fact that there was only one bus and difficult to get to town during the public holiday time.I do not remember any details about the need
The pool was nice on a hot day. Breakfast was quite good for the price. We had to wait a long time to be booked in due to some problem with computer. The staff were very nice about it but a drink whilst we waited would have been nice. They did allow us to use our room towels for the pool whilst we waited. The hotel was not as we expected for the price. I think the pool cost a lot.
use of pool and close to main motorway and choice of eating facilities. only 1 of the 3 rooms booked was available - a second room was organised at a nearby acotel. very disappointed.
Pleasant reception staff, pool. Buffet breakfast soon ran out of food and staff refused to re stock the table, don't be last down for breakfast.
Nothing Hotel building is like a container box. Very old and small room, too narrow for family. I strongly not recomend this hotel for family. I made 6 hotels for my vacation, this hotel is worst.
The staff is helpful and nice. The gentlemen helped us to book a taxi on our departure date. That's quie early and we won't be able to catch our train if he didn't help us. Though his mother language is Franch, he speaks quite good English. However the bill includes 4 breakfast but we juse ordered 2 at that time because we check-out early. (We just know that after leaving the hotel) Even worse, we missed the breakfast because we didn't wake up on time because we were still using the UK time.......wasting 4 breakfast in total.
Helpful staff, clean, good A/C, nice pool.
The daytime manager was pleasant and helpful. Our second room was basic, but clean. The night manager was awful. The code we were given for after-hours check-in did not work, so some other guests let us in and helped us find him, but he was abusive and at first refused to help us. Only after we demonstrated that the machine wasn't working did he sullenly get us a room key - for an already occupied room. The room we finally got was small, dirty, hot and uncomfortable. The next day we were moved into a cleaner, cooler room. The hotel's location would have been very inconvenient for visiting Avignon, if not for the fact that extra buses were running during the July festival in Avignon.
The air-conditioning worked only for the first day. Even when it was on, it did not help a lot. The room is just too stuffy and hot. Suggest not to stay during hot summer.
Clean and tidy cheap and good for a one night stop over
Clean, compact, organised, good breakfast. Way out of town, wrong gps coordinates on info.
24/7 checkout, free parking, free wifi, airconditioning. space shuttle bathroom (1 sq m probabably), bed looked like it was not cleaned after the previous client, poor breakfast for its price. Would be good value for money if the room costed about 30 euros, otherwise too expensive for the comfort provided.
The room is really value for money. Although the locations was away from Avignon centre, it was no problem for us as we had rented a car.
The rooms were dark and tiny. The shower was definately not great.
The proximity to the Avignon Nord commercial centre and a number of restaurants, and proximity to the motorway and main roads to Avignon and other places in the vicinity.
ok for a quick sleepover without any comfort requirements the room was dirty, linen and towels hadn't been changed for ages, with stains visible on pillow cases, bed linen and towels. it was obvious that someone in the hotel had tried to cover it up instead of changing it.
Good comfortable bed. Good Breakfast After hours there was no one at the hotel and the parking lot was locked. Was not sure how to check in.
The staff was very nice. There are no internal hallways at Premiere Class. The hotel takes the motel concept. You access your room by the external balconies. Your window faces the balcony. At other hotels I avoid the ground floor as I like at least some privacy and want to avoid people being able to look through my window. At Premiere Class all rooms are ground floor rooms and there is no privacy. The windows are small so not much light comes in if you open your shades... and if you don't well the lighting was horrible. I felt like I was in a tiny dungeon. The desk was too small to sit at comfortably with my computer.
Basic spot for day/night trip,fairly remote from any city,within shopping complex,with no communication with the city.Selection driven by price.Clean place to sleep only Very unprofessional staff,no language skills and very unfriendly and unhelpful.I have exoerienced this,when got lost and tried to get driving directions on the phone.Room cramped with bunkbeds

Court: Rapper's Lyrics Aren't Evidence
(NEWSER) – Disturbing though they may be, justices say, a man's violent rap lyrics can't be used as evidence that he tried to kill someone. New Jersey's Supreme Court reached a 6-0 decision in the case of Vonte Skinner, who is accused of shooting and paralyzing a man.
Skinner wrote extensive violent rap lyrics, and they helped result in an initial conviction in the case. But an appellate court said the lyrics couldn't be used as evidence, and the high court agreed. Use of the lyrics is "highly prejudicial," the court said, and it could end up "poisoning the jury," the Star-Ledger reports.

Captivating Cebu
Cebu, known as "Queen City of the South", is the country's oldest city. It is also the country's second major city and considered a fast developing metropolis.
Discover Cebu's rich culture through historical sites such as Magellan's Cross and Mactan Shrine, all within the vicinity of our hotel.
The Minor Basilica of the Holy Child, commonly known as Basilica del Santo Niño, is a 16th century basilica located in downtown Cebu. It is the oldest Roman Catholic Church in the country, purportedly built on the spot where the image of Santo Niño de Cebu is. This statue depicts the Holy Child Jesus which was found in 1565 by Spanish explorers led by Miguel Lopez de Legazpi. Permanently encased in bulletproof glass, the statue bears a distinctive regalia that includes a gold crown, globus cruciger and sceptre.
Cebu is also a diver's haven, as some of the country's best dive sites are just a stones throw from the coast of Mactan island.
Your visit to Cebu would not be complete without island hopping. Mactan is home to some of the world's finest beaches with turquoise waters and colourful coral reefs. Feast your eyes on amazing scenery, snorkel and glimpse the thriving sea life at the nearby marine sanctuaries, such as Hilutungan and Nalusu-an.
A low, flat island that lies five kilometers directly in front of Mövenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu, Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary is one of the seven best-known spots in the world for migrating birds. It holds the largest concentration of migrating birds in the Philippines. Interested to get to Olango for some serious bird watching? You're in luck, as there is an hourly ferry boat that leaves for the island from the pier, located right beside Mövenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu.
There are only few places across the globe which offer opportunities for encounters with magnificent creatures of the oceans, such as the whale shark, locally known as "butanding", which is the largest fish species in the world. A mere two-and-a-half hour drive from the hotel, and you can enjoy watching and swimming with the friendly creatures in the southern town of Oslob, Cebu.
Carbon and Tabuan Markets in downtown Cebu City are famous for local souvenirs and danggit, a Cebuano-style dried fish, and are better suited for the more adventurous traveler. Ayala Center Cebu and SM City Cebu are the two major malls in the city, each offering hundreds of shopping and dining options.
Cebu is famous for handmade guitars, and export-quality furniture and accessories. These can be purchased at a number of shops in Lapu-Lapu City or in metropolitan Cebu.

This week, Domino's Pizza shareholders voted to reject a resolution offered by the Humane Society of the United States to require its pork suppliers to stop housing gestating sows in stalls.
Perhaps equally as surprising is the overwhelming margin of the vote-- 80 percent of shareholders voting against the HSUS-proposed resolution, 4 percent voted in favor, 16 percent abstained. The vote came at the pizza chain's 2012 shareholders' meeting.
The Domino's decision runs counter to actions taken just this week by Burger King, as well as previous pledges by McDonald's and Wendy's, among other foodservice entities to only purchase pork products from producers who don't use gestation-sow stalls.
HSUS purchased stock in the Ann Arbor-based pizza chain in 2010—one of many such holdings that HSUS maintains. As a shareholder, HSUS submitted a resolution last fall asking Domino's to report on the feasibility of ensuring its pork products come from producers that don't use gestation-sow stalls.
Domino's Board of Directors response to the resolution, as reported by AnnArbor.com, was-- "We believe this is an issue that should be addressed directly with producers and suppliers, not customers."
This is not the first time that Domino's shareholders have considered such a resolution. The issue was brought up at last year's meeting. Nor will it be the last time that they face the topic.
"We're pleased that 4 percent of all Domino's shareholders feel strongly enough about animal protection to vote for our resolution, with an additional 16 percent at least abstaining from the vote so as to not block the resolution," says Matthew Prescott, HSUS' food policy director. "We're also pleased that the vote we garnered is of a sufficient level to allow us to resubmit a resolution to the company next year, if it fails to address the gestation crate issue by that time."
Its proxy statement Domino's Board of Directors pointed out that the company's pork suppliers use animals from farms "that use a variety of animal management systems, including from farms that do not use gestation stalls." It also cited the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the American Association of Swine Veterinarians (AASV) published statements indicating there are advantages and disadvantages to both cage-free and caged pork production methods.
"We rely on animal experts to determine what is the best way to raise an animal that's being used for food," said Tim McIntyre, Domino's spokesperson.
Michigan is one of the states that established a timeline for its pork producers to stop using gestation-sow stalls. The law goes into effect in April 2020 and will allow producers to move gestating sows into stalls just seven days before they're due to farrow.
McIntyre said Domino's is monitoring the issue. "We are paying attention to what McDonald's and Burger King are doing and this is not a company that is holding its collective hand to its ears or to its eyes," he said.

Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) at Western Regional Medical Center (WRMC) and McClendon's Select are partnering up to create the first and largest hospital organic farm in the United States that will provide patients, caregivers, employees and community members in the greater Phoenix area with organic produce grown right in their own backyard.
CTCA is proud to partner with Arizona's own McClendon's Select, one of the country's top organic farm companies, providing a whole new level to its integrative care model. McClendon's Select has been supplying CTCA with organic produce from their family owned farms since 2009 and now will be managing the 25-acre farm located on WRMC property between Fillmore and the I-10 in Goodyear. Construction started last Friday on what will be an expected six-week process. The first planting will occur in early November and the first harvest is scheduled for December 15, 2012.
CTCA is the first cancer hospital in the country to provide its patients with organic produce grown directly on its own land. Patients will have access to fresh produce that has been picked at its peak nutritional value and can feel good knowing exactly where their food is coming from – in fact, they'll be able to see it from the main hospital, or when driving in, and can even get involved with the patient and community gardens. "At CTCA one of our goals is to get test results to patients in minutes to hours rather than days or weeks, so it makes sense then that we would do the same thing for the food they eat – it's fresh, homegrown and delivered from the farm to their fork all in the same day," says Sharon Day, Director of Nutrition. "We are happy to provide high quality food and nutrition to our patients, caregivers, and employees, taking our quality of care to a whole new level."
In addition to bringing in fresh, organic produce to CTCA's culinary department directed by Executive Chef Frank Caputo, the hospital plans to host farmer's markets, cooking demonstrations and both patient and community gardens open to the public. Any surplus produce will be managed by McClendon's Select and sold at various farmer's markets throughout the greater Phoenix area.
"It's an honor to partner with CTCA in this capacity and my team and I at McClendon's are excited to see how this will transform culinary services in health care across the country. We think this is a huge step for our industry and the value organic farms can bring to facilities like CTCA," says Bob McClendon, owner and farmer at McClendon's Select.
"We've always provided our patients with the highest quality of certified organic produce and meats since we opened in 2008. We will now be able to grow our own food onsite and deliver delicious, highly nutritional meals to our patients and employees on the same day we've gone out and picked it from the vine or pulled it out of the ground. It's just incredible," says Executive Chef Frank Caputo. "Our culinary team is excited to be able to offer this service to our patients and employees."
CTCA offers a comprehensive and integrative approach to fighting cancer—all under one roof. Its integrative cancer treatment expands the boundaries of conventional care by bringing together traditional tools for fighting cancer, such as surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy, with supportive therapies, including nutritional support, naturopathic medicine, mind-body medicine, oncology rehabilitation, pain management, and spiritual support. Being able to offer patients home-grown, organic produce that is fresh from the "backyard" is just another way CTCA continues to provide patients with the very best options while fighting cancer.

Here's Every Bogus Story from the World Cup Finals
The World Cup may be over, but on the Internet the "World Cup bullshit" season is in full effect. So which of today's viral soccer stories are completely made-up? Read below to find out! (Hint: It's all of them)
No, this Twitter account didn't predict the World Cup final
Pretty freaky, right? That's what everyone else thought until they figured out how this relatively simple trick was done: By announcing all possible outcomes beforehand and then quietly deleting the bad guesses.
A Topsy search of @FifNdhs provides an archive of the account's less accurate predictions, such as "Argentina will win in penalties" and "Tomorrows scoreline will be 0-0."
Sure, that last one might not even be possible under World Cup rules, but in the event of Armageddon it would have looked pretty darn prescient.
No, this Christ the Redeemer photo wasn't from Germany's win
#ChristTheRedeemer lit up in German colours after their World Cup win! http://t.co/ILKMWTI11E #worldcupfinal pic.twitter.com/ujZBVzxQdb
— 9GAG (@9GAG) July 13, 2014
Despite the captions given by 9GAG and others, this photo of Rio de Janeiro's iconic statue wasn't from Sunday night, but the night before. That's when Germany's fans beat out Argentina's in an online vote to bathe Big J in their flag's colors.
During Sunday's closing ceremony, the colossal Christ represented the home team, sporting a slightly less blood-soaked green and yellow:
What a way to say goodbye to the World Cup. pic.twitter.com/TTR252MGWC

No, North Koreans didn't think they were in the World Cup
On Saturday, multiple media outlets ran stories about the wacky North Korean propaganda machine telling citizens the nation's team (which didn't qualify for the World Cup) had made the semi-finals. Their source? Some video on YouTube.
North Koreans would have to be pretty to gullible to buy that line, considering state media has been broadcasting the games throughout the tournament, with citizens explicitly acknowledging their team's absence. By Monday, most news sites had updated their posts to reflect the video's dubious provenance, by which time it had amassed more than 5 million views.
And while we're at:
Japan's team didn't arrive in Brazil by Pikachu, this "World Cup riot" picture is from 2013 and that Netherlands doping story comes from the worst "satire" site on the Internet.
Also sorry, Singaporeans: You didn't have the day off to watch soccer.

By Gary Cutrer
March 2010
It used to be that America's values, our moral anchors—the ideas and concepts about life and living that we consider correct and good—came from tradition, from what our parents taught us, from our school teachers and from our religious life. Some of our values came from books and some from movies. Some came from role models, whether they were historical or political figures, heroes in books or movies, or our family members we looked up to.
These days, for a whole lot of Americans, values come from the popular culture and only from the popular culture. Even if a young person is grounded in family and religion, is well educated and well read, there is some amount of influence on the way they see things and what they consider moral and correct and good that comes from the constant barrage of messages from TV, movies, newspapers and magazines and sources on the Internet.
I say all this not to be preachy nor to condemn anyone for what they view, read or listen to, but to suggest that there is a power base in this country that is often overlooked as a power base. Whoever holds the most power in the popular culture, shapes the culture of the country. And because many, many young people are raised without much of a moral compass, the popular culture, mass media and entertainment, becomes their reference point for developing a set of values.
There's not a conspiracy in entertainment and media to promote a certain political ideology or to present a list of concepts and standards they think we should embrace. There's not a conspiracy, but there's a trend—a long-term one. The trend for 45 years or more has been to more and more present a left-leaning political point of view, a strongly urban point of view, an anti-Christian point of view, a "business and corporations are not to be trusted" point of view, and an anti-military position.
There is a mindset, a prominent way of thinking. Not all players in the mass media and entertainment think this way. But for a big, big percentage of the power players in news media, publishing, and especially in the movie business, this is the conventional wisdom.
The powerful influence of the pop culture movers and shakers mainstreams things like reactionary or even radical environmentalism. Agriculture use of privately owned land often is presented as destructive or harmful to the environment. Trapping is mean and bad. Wearing fur is absolute evil. Shooting wolves or coyotes from a helicopter is cruel, even when the goal is to control the population and prevent predators from wiping out deer or elk, never mind livestock.
The pop culture mavens subtly and sometimes not so subtly promote their politics as well. Stereotypical conservatives or Republicans in a movie wear three-piece suits, are intolerant of all points of view but their own and are mean to dogs and kittens.
Armed services members are portrayed as poor, uneducated recruits who are trained to kill, kill, kill and more often than not return home mentally unstable as a result of their experiences.
Movies and music tell young people that casual sex is good. Tattoos are great. Being a "gansta" is where it's at. Pants should be so saggy it takes double stick tape to hold them to plumber's crack level.
Do you notice product placement in movies? The influence of movies alone is so great, so strong, that Coca-Cola or Google will pay millions to show actors using their product in a big one—which is not bad. But it demonstrates the power movies have to influence opinion and action. When the movie "Urban Cowboy," came out in 1980, everyone from the Wall Street tycoon to 9-to-5 Joe was sporting a fancy cowboy hat and boots and dancing the two-step. And that was only a couple years after they'd been disco dancing in their white leisure suits after seeing "Saturday Night Fever."
I don't want anyone to shut down Hollywood. I don't want to censor the New York Times. I don't want to preview and approve the lyrics to the latest hip-hop song—East coast or West coast.
The remedy to bad speech is more speech, not less. Those who care to influence America's values and its culture—for the better—need to become players in pop culture. How to do that? I don't know.
Time to invest in a movie project you believe in? To create a "new, improved" Hollywood? Those interested in changing the popular culture and thus influence values, must participate, and that means they must finance and produce compelling entertainment and informational content that conveys their message, their ideals.

BREVARD, N.C.- The Brevard College baseball team rallied from an early 6-1 deficit on their way to a 7-6 comeback win in the opener of a doubleheader with Anderson University at Gil Coan Field on Sunday before falling 8-7 in the nightcap.
Game 1: Brevard 7, Anderson 6
Brevard reliever Dustin Haitchox (S, 2) came in with no outs in the 7th and the tying run on second before a wild pitch and a hit batsmen put runners on the corners. The senior then fanned AU's Steven Cooper for the first out before inducing a 1-4-3 double play to end the game, stranding the tying run on third.
The Tornados took a 7-6 lead on Eric Renegar's sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 5th after clawing their way out of a 6-1 hole to take the opener.
After the teams exchanged runs in the first frame, the Trojans scored five times in the 2nd to take a 6-1 lead against BC starter Kevin Hamilton (W, 2-4).
The righty recovered to shut down the Trojans for the next four innings, allowing BC the chance to rally against starter Thomas Goodwin and reliever David Thompson (L, 3-4).
The Tornados got three runs back in the bottom of the 2nd on Brayden Morris' two-run double and Brock Helton's RBI groundout. BC tied the game at 6-6 in the 3rd on Renegar's RBI single after a Kody Spencer sac fly made it 6-5.
Game 2: Anderson 8, Brevard 7
The Tornados made it a one-run game with two runs in the bottom of the 7th, but AU's Landon Beck (W, 3-4) was able to keep the tying run on first while recording the final two outs.
BC trailed 8-5 going into the final inning before an RBI double by John Slade and a Hunter Donaldson RBI single up the middle made it 8-7.
The Tornados grabbed a 5-0 lead with a five spot in the 2nd before the Trojans rallied for eight runs over the final three at-bats. A throwing error by Haithcox (L, 2-2) prolonged the 6th inning, allowing the Trojans to take the lead with three unearned runs.
The Tornados return to action on Tuesday for a neutral site doubleheader with the Pfeiffer Falcons at McNair Field in Forest City. First pitch of the opener is scheduled for 3 p.m.

Miley Cyrus Gets New Short, Platinum 'Do
Gotta say, we love a gal with the courage to go short … real short. Miley Cyrus, always eager to show just how "edgy" she really is despite her achy-breaky roots, chopped off all her hair in favor of a partially shaved, asymmetrical platinum blonde crop that would make Annie Lennox jealous. I lack the balls for such a 'do, but on Miley, I love it.

Meat Loaf retiring from touring after next tour
Listen to Meat Loaf on iHeartRadio
Meat Loaf is putting a fork in his touring career. The veteran rocker recently told Reuters TV he'll be retiring from the road after his upcoming "Last At Bat" tour, which is also being billed as his farewell tour.
Meat Loaf, born Marvin Aday, has suffered his share of health setbacks in recent years. He was forced to cancel his European tour in 2007 after a cyst was discovered on his vocal cords and has collapsed several times, once on stage in 2011.
The 65-year-old rocker also recently underwent knee replacement surgery.
Meat Loaf says "This is really it. I just don't want to travel anymore." Making reference to the Rolling Stones' 69-year-old frontman, Meat added, "I outweigh Mick Jagger by about 100 pounds and that counts for something. He hasn't seen the wear and tear."
Meat Loaf's "Last At Bat (Farewell)" tour kicks off Friday in Newcastle, England.

Our Theme: The Gift of Joy and Wonder in All Your Works
In a world that increasingly defines educational excellence and success solely in terms of test scores and college admissions, Episcopal schools are countercultural in that they seek to build lives, not simply résumés. The conference will celebrate and explore programs, strategies, and ways of being in Episcopal schools that support and nurture this central tenet of Episcopal education.
How do creativity, play, pastoral care, spiritual development, and the celebration of each person's unique gifts contribute to the educational ethos in our schools? How can Episcopal schools help students, families, and all members of the school community depressurize and re-engage with the joy and wonder of education, life, and the world around them? These are but a few of the questions attendees will explore.
Krista Tippett to Give Keynote Address
Krista Tippett, the noted author and host of National Pubic Radio's On Being, will give the keynote address during the Plenary Breakfast on Friday, November 16, 2012. Learn more about Krista Tippett.
Who Should Attend:
Heads of school, Early Childhood Education program directors, rectors, trustees, vestry members, chaplains and teachers of religion, senior administrators and faculty members, diocesan and regional school leaders, education professionals and consultants and friends are encouraged to come together to learn, teach, share, network, celebrate, and give thanks.
Biennial Conference, held in the fall of even number calendar years, is the premier gathering of Episcopal school leaders from around the Episcopal Church U.S.A., as well as a small but growing number of leaders from other parts of the Anglican Communion. The Conference's professional development opportunities are designed to support and strengthen the leadership and governance of our schools and the articulation of their Episcopal identity.

Just as Vassell was a risk that Jimi Manuwa didnt need to take on his way to the UFC its the same for both of these guys at the minute they will both get a crack and they dont need this fight to happen, the other problem is between them they have taken care of most of there domestic rivals
If you beat a bunch of high-level guys, you'll absolutely get a shot in the UFC... and you'll be prepared for it. At the same time, we've seen can crushers from all over the world get a call up.
Fighting, writing and mood lighting.
Remember dan hardy putting it on the line against Daniel weichel with a ufc contract at stake. He had a comment like "if I can't beat him I'm not good enough anyway".
It's the Vaughan Lee scenario all over again, he went to the UFC trials with an 8-6-1 record, pretty much destroyed some poor guy in the grappling and took home $400, impressed everyone but didn't have the record, he went away and beat 3 nobodies, and next thing he's fighting in the UFC with an 11-6-2 record and is 2-2 in the UFC... Needs a really impressive win or a fucking awesome loss in his next outing imo to stay away from the cut line.
I think if you go 11-0 beating bums you'll get a call, if you go 7-4 against top guys you'll need to go through TUF lol.

BCS Bits - What is the Harris Poll? (September 22, 2009)The season's first Harris Interactive College Football Poll will be released Sunday (September 27). The poll is administered independently by Harris and so they're the experts. But here are a few tidbits that may be of interest:
* This is the fifth season that the Harris poll has been an element of the BCS Standings.
* The Harris Poll comprises one-third of the Standings. The other two elements, of course, are the USA Today Coaches Poll and the average of six computer rankings.
* Each of the 11 conferences nominated 30 people to serve on the Harris panel; Harris randomly selected 10 from each bunch. Notre Dame nominated nine (Harris selected three) and Army and Navy nominated three (Harris selected one.) Yep, there are 114 panelists.
* The panelists' names will be available at www.harrisinteractive.com/bcspoll in the next day or two.
* The rankings will be posted on the Harris web site each Sunday. Each individual panelist's rankings will be posted on Selection Sunday.
* The season's first BCS Standings - Volume 12, No. 1 - will be released October 18.

WHEELING, W.Va. (AP) -- Federal prosecutors say two West Virginia men have been indicted on charges that they allegedly delivered heroin that caused the death of another man.
U.S. Attorney William Ihlenfeld announced the charges against Curtis Adams and Justin Withers of Wellsburg on Monday.
Officials say the 28-year-olds were indicted by a federal grand jury for distribution of heroin and other charges.
Prosecutors say the pair allegedly traveled to Steubenville, Ohio, to acquire the heroin and then back to Brooke County to distribute the drug to the victim who died in March 2011.
Both face up to life in prison on the distribution charge. They are scheduled to be arraigned on Friday.
Attorneys for both men did not immediately return telephone messages seeking comment.

Years ago, I worked in a bookstore in Manhattan. I happened to be on board the summer the mega-bestseller, The Rules, hit. I was still in college at the time, so dating to me meant hooking up with a friend after a party and then continuing to hook up until you both decided to call it a relationship. This was also 1996 – we didn't have cell phones (unless you were a drug dealer and had a pager) and the internet still sounded pretty sci-fi. Plus, it was a small campus. Good luck avoiding the awkward fallout from any romantic games that one might have tried to play.
But then, I joined the real world. And I remembered back to that atrocious little book that all the young women on the Upper East Side bought in droves that summer. The Rules. How to be coy, how to be cunning, how to play the game right so you could score yourself a man: whereas I was merely confused by it as a coed, I became sickened by it as a yuppie. And yet, I couldn't help but feel that the girls who got the guys somehow knew something I didn't, and I feared it was those stupid rules.
Read Hey Guys, Women LOVE Creative First Dates!
After five years of being single, I had gone from flipping the bird at game-playing, to awkwardly joining in, to giving up altogether, because what I found out, is that games aren't the preludes to a relationship… ever. In fact, they are the biggest sign that a relationship ain't gonna happen.
Three years ago, I found myself in a brief but passionate relationship with a man whose moniker was Jimmy Voltage, and I thought I would try my hand at these mysterious games. He would call, I would wait to respond. He would text and based on the length of his texts, I would write less. And yet somehow, my standoffishness just wasn't authentic enough. He could tell I liked him, and he began to use it against me.
"You've read the book, right?" my friend Natalie asked after I complained to her that I was no good at these hard to get tricks.
"He's Just Not That Into You – no, but I read the intro," I tried.
"No, not that one. That one just tells you when you've lost. You have to read the one that tells you how to win."
I braced myself for The Rules.
"It's called Why Men Love Bitches," Natalie offered. "I'll bring it to you tomorrow. It's how I got Reggie."

THE wickedly incomprehensible massacre of little children and their teachers in Connecticut last week is occasion for deepest sorrow. But it is also time for action dealing with firearms and mental illness.
The best place to start is to reinstate the federal assault weapons ban that was in place between 1994 and 2004, when it was allowed to expire.
In a society where guns are allowed, people will always be able to shoot people, justified or not. But there's no reason to make it so easy for the deranged or disturbed to be able to shoot dozens of people - or deer, or elk - dozens of times. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., has been at the forefront of the failed effort to restore reasonable legislation to curb assault weapons 12 times since it expired. On Friday she immediately launched a new effort, which she will introduce when the Senate reconvenes next month. This ban will include bans on high-capacity bullet magazines.
Congress should adopt the ban - and make it permanent.
Supporting the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution does not require embracing an armed-camp America with a bazooka under every bed. To agree that it is deranged people who commit such slaughter, and that a nation can't pretend to outlaw evil, does not require knuckling under to the crazy proposition that nothing can or should be done to control the spread of weapons of mass destruction.
Is this taking advantage of tragedy? Not at all. It's a rational response to the massacre of 20 small children and eight adults in Newtown last week. Action is required to confront the awful reality.
California bans assault weapons, but Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, said Monday he would introduce a measure to close a loophole in the state law that allows a simple modification to turn a legal semi-automatic gun into an assault weapon.
The next step is to close the gun show loophole. Weapons sellers have gotten around the National Instant Criminal Background Check System since its creation in 1998 by allowing gun purchasers to avoid background checks when they buy at a gun show instead of from a store.
That's a insanely large hole in the law. Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., proposes banning all sales without background checks no matter where they are purchased. Lautenberg cited Adam Gadahn, an American-born member of al Qaeda, urging on terrorists in a video: "America is absolutely awash with easily obtainable firearms. You can go down to a gun show at the local convention center and come away with a fully automatic assault rifle, without a background check, and most likely, without having to show an identification card. So what are you waiting for?" Close the hole.
And, perhaps the post important piece is dealing with mentally ill people. Behind most of these American massacres that plague us is someone with a mental illness.
Certainly we need to mobilize to create a better system of care for disturbed people before they can harm anyone. And that includes stronger laws allowing society to isolate them from the rest of us. Let's begin to engage that process as well.
Modernizing gun laws and improving mental health care are steps on the path President Obama announced at the Newtown memorial: "We can't tolerate this anymore. These tragedies must end. And to end them, we must change."
