Detailed information about hunting in the park is available at the park office. Dog training is permitted from the day following Labor Day to March 31 in designated hunting areas.
To help protect the safety of hunters, non-hunting visitors and nearby residents, signs designating hunting areas, no hunting areas and safety zones are posted throughout the park. Hunters should be especially alert for other park visitors who may not be familiar with hunting and for safety zones near park buildings and private residences in and around the park.
The Bureau of State Parks reserves the right to participate in or conduct special hunts at other times if necessary to adequately control specific wildlife populations or to conserve park resources. Please contact the park office if you have any questions or need more specific information.
Hunting woodchucks, also known as groundhogs, is prohibited. Dog training is only permitted from the day following Labor Day through March 31 in designated hunting areas. The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and the Pennsylvania Game Commission rules and regulations apply. Contact the park office for ADA accessible hunting information.
Use extreme caution with firearms at all times. Other visitors use the park during hunting seasons.

Tornados fall at home to Tusculum to complete five game home-standOctober 10, 2009
Tornados bow out in straight sets
Brevard, N.C. - The Tornados completed their five-game home-stand this afternoon in Boshamer Gymnasium, hosting South Atlantic Conference opponent Tusculum College. Brooke Seaman had seven kills to lead Brevard in the match, but the Tornados were unable to overcome the double-digit efforts posted by Gina Coffaro and Bailee Price in falling, 25-16, 25-13 and 25-10.
For the season, Brevard falls to 11-8, 1-7 in the South Atlantic Conference, while Tusculum improves to 13-9, 4-4 in conference play.
Seaman, the Tornados preseason First Team All-SAC selection, added a game-high three blocks to her kill total for the afternoon, while Bethany Stevenson added five kills and Jamie Atkinson placed in four.
Stevenson also handled the primary setting duties for the Tornados, recording 18 assists on the game, while Cori Emory led the team from the backline with 10 digs.
Coffaro fired in 13 kills to lead all hitters on the afternoon for Tusculum and Price added 10 of her own as the Pioneers hit 46.0% for the match.
Peyton Colclough was a huge part of the attack with 39 assists on the match, while Coffaro pulled double duty with 13 digs on the afternoon.
The Tornados are back in action on Tuesday, October 13th as they continue South Atlantic Conference play on the road, heading down to Newberry, S.C. to take on host Newberry College. First serve for the match is set for 7 p.m.
Tusculum returns home to Pioneer Arena to host Mars Hill, also on October 13th, with first serve coming at 7 p.m.

Photo Gallery: Storm brings rain, snow
The threat of rain and snow continued to loom over the Southland on Sunday, but the wet and icy weather was expected to clear out by this morning, according to the National Weather Service.
Big Bear Lake saw some snow flurries Sunday afternoon but most of the other local ski resorts saw little of the white stuff.
The snowfall led to chain restrictions on Highway 18 heading into Big Bear Lake early Sunday and then Sunday evening heading into the Lake Arrowhead area, according to California Highway Patrol reports.
Snow levels were still expected to drop Sunday night from about 6,000 feet to about 3,500 feet, according to AccuWeather.com.
There were reports of rain in the Cajon Pass along the 15 Freeway on Sunday evening, but no reports of snow.
Small amounts of rain, amounting to less than a tenth of an inch in most areas, fell in the morning hours Sunday morning, NWS meteorologist David Sweet said.
"What went through overnight was a cold front. Behind the cold front is some unstable air," he said Sunday.
There were reports of short bursts of heavy rainfall in Fontana, Ontario and in areas of San Bernardino and Rancho Cucamonga.
Heavy snow was reported by the CHP on Sunday in the Angeles National Forest between Mill Creek Summit and Big Tujunga.
But Sweet said the storm system is on track to move out of the area by today, "but it might be kind of windy in the morning."
Winds of 15 to 25 mph are expected in Los Angeles County, with local gusts reaching 35 mph in the hills, Sweet said.
Winds in the mountains, deserts and foothills of San Bernardino County were predicted to reach 40 mph or faster late Sunday.
The weather will begin to warm once the storm system has cleared the area today, but not for long as rain and snow are being predicted later this week.
"Another storm system moves in for another 40 percent chance of showers Thursday," Sweet said.

Independent Foundations
Private foundations make grants based on charitable endowments. The endowment funds come from one or a small handful of sources -- an individual, a family or a corporation. Because of their endowments, they are focused primarily on grantmaking and generally do not raise funds or seek public financial support the way public charities (like community foundations) must.
Private independent foundations are distinct from private family or corporate foundations in that an independent foundation is not governed by the benefactor, the benefactor's family or a corporation. Of the largest private foundations in the United States, most are independent foundations, although they may have begun as family foundations or were converted from corporate foundations. There is no official IRS or legal definition of independent foundations, so it is difficult to arrive at statistics that are fully representative of the field.
Below is everything on our site for independent foundations. You can use the filtering options on the right to narrow these results.

"It's a bummer."
That's how Quincy Smith, president of CBS Interactive, described the departure of Last.fm's three founders, Martin Stiksel, Felix Miller and Richard Jones.
CBS paid $280m in 2007 for Last.fm, an online music service and community now used by over 37m people a month. It remains one of the UK's biggest buyouts in the web 2.0 era and Last.fm is still a fixture of London's Silicon Roundabout.
Yet Mr Smith was magnanimous as three darlings of the web scene left CBS Interactive, which as a whole generated revenues of over $600m last year. Read more

Sasuke and Sakura: Friends or Foes? →
My Name is Konohamaru! (木ノ葉丸だ コレ!, Konohamaruda Kore!) is episode 2 of the original Naruto anime.
Naruto used a bizarre photograph of himself in his Ninja Registration Form. The Third Hokage told him to retake his photo, as the photograph made him seem senseless, but Naruto used his Sexy Technique in order to frustrate him. A child tried to attack the Hokage, but he tripped on his own scarf. A ninja arrived and seemed concerned for the child. He noticed Naruto, identifying him as the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. The child claimed that Naruto made him fall, trying to deny the fact that he fell over himself. Naruto disputed with the child, but the ninja, Ebisu, told him that the child was the grandson of the Third Hokage, revealing him to be Konohamaru Sarutobi. Ebisu then told Konohamaru to train with Ebisu so that he will be Hokage quicker, but the boy slipped away during Ebisu's speech to follow Naruto. Ebisu panicked and left swiftly. The Konohamaru then followed Naruto through Konohagakure, trying to avoid being spotted. After Naruto saw through his obvious disguise, Konohamaru ordered Naruto to train him and teach him how to overthrow the Third Hokage.
After doing various steps of the training, Naruto asked Konohamaru why he was obsessed with the Hokage. Konohamaru then told him that the people never identified him as himself and just saw him as the Hokage's grandson, so he wanted to be Hokage, but Naruto told him that it was not easy to become one.
At the rooftops of the Hokage mansion, Iruka asked the Hokage about Naruto's ninja registration form. The Hokage then explained that he had issued a decree not to let anybody know the fact about Naruto's being a jinchūriki, and that he would punish those who broke it. He also said that the Fourth Hokage wanted the village to see Naruto as a hero, but most of the villagers saw Naruto as the Nine-Tails itself.
Finally, Ebisu found Konohamaru and Naruto. Konohamaru announced that he was trying to learn the way to beat his grandfather so he could become Hokage. Ebisu taunted Konohamaru, who responded by using the Sexy Technique on Ebisu, who was horrified by it. Then, Naruto used his Shadow Clone Technique. The Hokage watched them with his Telescope Technique. Then, Naruto transformed the clones into nude women with the Sexy Technique, and Ebisu had a huge nose bleed and fell unconscious. Naruto told Konohamaru that there was no shortcut to be Hokage. He then told him that they would be rivals, and that they would fight one day for the title of Hokage.

No matter what some rabid, disgruntled Redskins fans might want and what 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks says, Robert Griffin III will remain the Redskins' starting quarterback. Head coach Mike Shanahan confirmed it on Tuesday. Griffin's job security became a hot topic following Monday's 27-6 loss to San Francisco in which he threw for a season-low 127 yards and was held out of the end zone.
Fantasy Analysis:
Griffin was pretty awful in that game, but the Redskins as a whole didn't show up. They got outcoached. They couldn't run the ball or block, and let Colin Kaepernick do whatever he wanted in or out of the pocket. That's not Griffin's fault. To think the 3-8 Redskins would be better off benching their franchise quarterback for Kirk Cousins at this point is nonsense.
Griffin isn't close to the player we saw last year, but he is still healthy enough to play. He is only a matchup-based starter in fantasy. For this week against the Giants, I think he is a very low-end QB1. I'd rather not play him as the Giants' defense is on the up, but big games versus the Cowboys and Falcons could lie ahead.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 7/2/2014 (1262 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
He started out hosting bus tours for seniors in Australia in 1986. Today, he is the founder and managing director of Scenic Tours, Scenic Cruises and Emerald Waterways and is considered one of the river cruise industry's true innovators.
In the early days, Glen Moroney was the guy on the Aussie bus explaining the highlights of the tour along Great Ocean Road. His tourism business grew and in 2008 he ventured into the river cruising business with the first of what he referred to as "space ships" -- with emphasis on larger cabins and public areas.
He also added balconies, then uncommon on river ships. His reasoning? "Passengers who cruised the ocean had balconies. Why not give them something they're used to?"
It worked. With two new vessels coming this year, Scenic will have a fleet of nine space ships, plus the Scenic Tsar, a purpose-built vessel that operates out of Russia. Next year, Moroney will add three more space ships.
Last year, he made another unique decision -- to go all-inclusive.
"Our fares now cover meals, gratuities and shore excursions... also unlimited drinks, including the mini bar, and butler service. You will find bicycles on board, too. Tours are offered in three categories: Scenic Enrich, which focuses on cultural experiences; Scenic Tailormade, or on your own with an audio device; and Scenic Free Choice, tour options in a given port."
That seems a lot to digest, but not for Moroney. In Europe this spring, he will launch a new cruise line -- Emerald Waterways, with two new ships: Emerald Star and Emerald Sky. Capacity will be higher, prices will be lower, with a little less of the all-inclusive, but Moroney is not forsaking innovation.
A small swimming pool will be on the upper deck. The pool will have a hydraulic floor that will rise up at night and turn the pool into a movie theatre. Moroney created his own version of the French balcony, with windows that open vertically for these ships. The new cruisers will each carry 180 passengers (compared to 169 on Scenic) and he is adding two more Emerald ships next spring.
That's a lot of capacity to fill, so I asked Moroney how he was faring this year.
"Even with the new ships, our percentage of sold cabins is ahead of where we were at this time last year," he said. "The river cruise business continues to grow beyond our expectations and should for the foreseeable future.
"Ours is a repeat business, so we are constantly seeking new routes. The Rhone has been a success for us in France and this year we built a smaller ship, the Scenic Gem, to take advantage of the Seine so we could go all the way from Paris to Honfleur. This provides our guests with a full day at the Somme battlefields as well as a visit to Caudebec-en-Caux and the Normandy beaches. We will add a third river in France next year."
Any problems on the horizon?
"Not really. We need more infrastructure at some of the smaller cities, but keep in mind it costs communities very little to meet our needs compared to ocean-going ships."
Expect more ships and innovations from Moroney.

I have been involved with Karate for over 25 years ( full contact not the crap done now a days ) any way I have had to have major knee surgery last year and have been told that I cant roll, do heavy stand up - fuck I cant even go jogging.
the problem is the damage I did to my knee area - the doc said if i go back to what i did then its game over £ 15,000 operation and off my feet for 6 months.
I am currently only doing kids classes so to reduce the risk but to be honest I am getting sick of teaching a bunch of brats who have parents that dont give a shit about anything other than their kid being the next karate kid.
I told the wife that i wanted to call it a day and she thinks that i might miss it to much.
so my question - do I carry on teaching kids and just put up with the shit or call it a day and concentrate on my shop and accept the fact that i have had a great 25 years.
opinions please

Best Of :: La Vida
Mariachis at a Mexican food restaurant? Typical, right? The crooners at Garcia's Las Avenidas are anything but. Walk into this old-school Mexican restaurant on a Saturday night and you will hear the bittersweet harmonies of a live mariachi band wafting through the building. Starting at 6 p.m., the band makes the rounds, serenading tables that make requests. The family-owned restaurant serves some of the best Mexican food in town with a friendly, casual atmosphere. Pick your favorite dish no matter what it is, you'll be satisfied and enjoy the sweet sounds. Just like the food, the band is always amazing. Their perfectly tuned violins, guitars, viheula, and guitarrón pair with the beautifully harmonized voices to belt romantic Spanish lyrics of love and loss. Despite our best efforts to keep cool, we've definitely felt our skin prickle with chills on a number of occasions. And while it's possible to enjoy them from afar, it's definitely worth it to flag them to your table. They don't just churn and burn the tunes, it's an up-close, impassioned serenade. The repertoire is vast and we've never seen a request turned down. Whether it's the classic heartbreaker "El Son de la Negra" or the gringo favorite "La Bamba," there's no need to worry about repetition we've never heard the same song twice. With the killer mariachi music, authentic food, stellar service and cozy atmosphere, you'll be ay-ay-aying before you know it.
On a sizzling afternoon, we've found a way to beat the heat that's even better than a slushie: a Mexican slushie. Made with fresh fruit chunks, flavored syrups, and scoops of shaved ice, they're called raspados and do they ever hit the spot when the heat's starting to make us a bit loco. La Reyna Michoacana, a cheerful sweet shop with shiny white tile floors, bright lemon-hued walls, and colorful fruit paintings along the counter, is our favorite pit stop for this south-of-the-border refreshment, offering raspados in flavors from strawberry and pineapple to rompope, a sweet almond concoction reminiscent of eggnog. Try one straight up, or order it diablito, with ground chile flakes to add a spicy twist. Sweetened condensed milk is another delicious addition, especially with La Reyna's fabulous tamarind raspado. No matter what flavor you go with, just remember you gotta drink up to cool down.
When summertime arrives you know, in early March we start craving Mexican popsicles, known as paletas. This year, we started the hunt for the cantaloupe bars we recalled from last season, but it wasn't easy to find them. We remembered Moreliana's cute packaging (a boy and girl enjoying their paletas) but figured, hey, one paleta's as good as the next so we bought a bag of another brand. Not so, amigas. Only Moreliana's available in pushcarts through the summer, and at various small ice cream shops and bakeries (but not Phoenix Ranch Market) packs their paletas with tons of fresh fruit, so (to paraphrase Willy Wonka) the cantaloupe really tastes like a cantaloupe and the watermelon really tastes like a watermelon. The mango with chile is also the real deal so much so that three of us tried to eat one without our mouths going numb and our faces sweating, but had to give up. Still, we gave up smiling.
There's nothing like an ice cream sundae to satisfy a sweet tooth. Not just any sundae, mind you, but the kind of layered confection that's so good you'll forget there's such a thing as a love handle. With south-of-the-border Coke in glass bottles, nachos, and wicked chile tamarind raspados, too, this isn't your ordinary ice cream shop. Fruitti Sweets is a tiny little spot that scoops up lip-smacking flavors like boysenberry sorbet, and sugar-free caramel praline. Dreamy chocolate and fresh strawberry are among the sugary syrups we can't live without.
We can't skip the whipped cream, and the toppers include coconut so fresh we swear someone's grating them up in the back. They've got your maraschino cherry covered. Just when you thought it couldn't get any sweeter, pink and yellow sugar wafer cookies seal the deal. For less than three bucks, this sundae's so hot it's cool.
We have a very good friend who's a very good cook, and recently, she let on that she's been perfecting a recipe for tres leches cake. We put in an order for our birthday, but 'til then, we will continue to worship La Tolteca's version. Tres leches means "three milks," indicating the main ingredients: condensed, evaporated, and whole milk. All together, you've got one rich, delicious cake, so moist it's hard to tell where the icing leaves off and the cake begins. Dear friend, you have big shoes to fill! We can't wait to see if you're up to the task of matching the fine bakers at La Tolteca.
It doesn't matter if we feast on a platter of fabulous carne asada, or inhale a whole basket of chips with queso fundido or chunky homemade guacamole we always have room for dessert at Los Sombreros, one of the best places in the Valley for gourmet Mexican food. In particular, we're fanatics of the flan, served up in a thick, generous slice. It's almost big enough to share, but we'd never want to, especially since it's paired with Almendrado tequila. What? Tequila with dessert? Oh, yes, indeed. It's a sweet, aged liqueur with an intense, deep almond flavor. Swirl it a little, inhale that seductive aroma, and then take a sip before you take a bite of silky, creamy flan. It's even better when you drizzle it right on top of the custard. And don't worry about getting funny looks from your waiter. He'll be cheering you on until your last delicious bite.

U2 finishing new album in New York City
It looks like U2's next album may really be just around the corner. Bono, the Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr. were all out and about in New York City this weekend. AtU2.com says their visit included a stop at Electric Lady Studios to check in with Danger Mouse. The producer was reportedly finishing his mixing work on the band's still-untitled follow-up to 2009's No Line on the Horizon.
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin was also spotted at the studio, although it's unclear whether he made any contributions to U2's disc or if he was just hanging out. But despite the recent flurry of activity, the Irish rockers' 13th studio effort still doesn't have a firm release date. They've only said that they hope the album will be out in the fall.
Meanwhile, U2 also spent part of their weekend on the Electric Lady rooftop - but not doing anything that will end up on their new album. Instead, they recorded an acoustic version of "Sunday Bloody Sunday" for an art project called Inside Out.

Among potential Republican presidential contenders in the 2016 Iowa caucuses,Rick Santorum is polling at around 6 percent. He's mired behind more than half-dozen candidates, some of whom have never campaigned the Hawkeye State, let alone won the first in the nation caucuses. But while the former Pennsylvania senator may not be in an ideal position for a presidential hopeful, he's still light years beyond where he was was at this time four years ago.
Indeed, Santorum didn't start regularly cracking the 6 percent mark in polls until December 2011, just a month before the caucuses. That was after spending more than a year going back and forth across the state, where he boasted about visiting all 99 counties.
On Friday night, the former Pennsylvania senator tried to jump-start a return to the top of the polls in front of a crowd of about 125 at a picnic in Boone, Iowa, held by the county Republican Party. Santorum arrived long after the event had started, as an array of election officials and candidates took turns delivering stem winders to rally the party faithful who had gathered for a barbecue dinner in a city park on a pleasant August evening. He emerged from the parking lot with a grin on his face and stuck his hands in his pockets as he loped toward the event, just waiting for someone to recognize him. After so many months in 2011 of toiling in anonymity before crowds of five or 10 people, he was appearing effortlessly before scores of key Republican activists, including Gov. Terry Branstad and Rep. Steve King. But the event didn't pause for Santorum. Instead, after about 30 or 45 seconds, two women helping to organize the picnic went up to him, welcoming him and taking him off to the side to meet and greet the other organizers.
Both Friday night in Boone and at the bigger Family Leader Summit on Saturday in Ames, Santorum gave what has become his standard stump speech, focusing on themes from his book Blue Collar Conservatives. But unlike some other GOP presidential hopefuls, he appeared more focused on using his book to promote his potential candidacy than the other way around.
Santorum's spiel at both events seemed designed to differentiate him from other social conservative candidates. Whereas in 2012 Santorum's competition for the Iowa GOP's Christian base faded by caucus night—Newt Gingrich was brought down by attack ads and his colorful marital history, Rick Perry by Oxycontin, and Michele Bachmann by being herself—this year the former senator faces a far more crowded field that potentially includes Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Bobby Jindal, and Perry again. Jamie Johnson, a state central committee member and Santorum supporter in 2012, compared the situation to the Miami Dolphins backfield in the early 1970s, when the team had three great running backs but only two who could make it on the field at any one time.
In this logjam, Santorum was under particular pressure to deliver a strong performance at Saturday's Family Leader Summit. Bob Vander Plaats, the summit's organizer and a leading Iowa social conservative, told The Daily Beast that as "the defending champion," Santorum's speech had some of "the highest stakes" of anyone who appeared. Vander Plaats said he thought the former Pennsylvania senator needed to remind attendees "why he won the Iowa caucuses and why he's the one to champion their values and lead on those moving forward." Instead, in a unique appeal, Santorum avoided hot button social issues almost totally and did something peculiar: He went after Ronald Reagan.

What Will You Wear on Red Dress Day? 11 Top Bloggers' Dream Outfits
National Wear Red Day is February 3rd. We created our fantasy outfits for day, night or the red carpet!
-The Bettys
Go Red for Women is a national non profit that promotes heart health and heart disease prevention. Celebrities like Elizabeth Banks, Cheryl Hines and Star Jones have volunteered their time to create videos, give talks and reach out to women across America to help us all become more aware of the number one killer of women. That's right — heart disease takes the lives of almost 500,000 women a year. That's one woman lost every single minute of the day.
But knowledge is power — the American Heart Association estimates that up to 80% of heart disease and attacks are preventable! To celebrate National Wear Red Day, February 3, we asked fashionable and heart-conscious bloggers and writers to create a fantasy outfits they'd love to wear. (And yes of course we played along too!)
Here's what we came up with … we hope it inspires you to go red for women on Friday, February 3rd!
Jene Luciani – author, The Bra Book, TV personality and mommy.
xxo Tell 5 women you want them to live on GoRed.org! xxo
Jene said: "Showing your support doesn't have to be stuffy or formal, doesn't have to cost a lot of $ (I'm all about shopping on a budget!!) and it can certainly be on-trend. Plus, my "dream" outfit is something I can actually WEAR! I am LOVING bright-colored jeans right now, especially red! So I chose these red Michael Kors skinnies, paired with this super comfy-wear-with-everything striped blazer that you can roll up the sleeves and show another spot of red. I paired with fab-but-tough studded leopard pumps from Edelman. A fun look that's not stuffy at all! Obviously author of The Bra Book, I'll be wearing a little red underneath too (wink wink)."
To learn more about Jene, visit her site.
Pictured here: Sam Edelman Roza pumps ($325,9, zappos.com), Michael Kors red skinny jeans ($79.50, michaelkors.com), 59 Seconds striped jersey blazer ($15, yesstyle.com) and Fredericks of Hollywood Smooth Sensations demi bra ($34, fredericks.com).
Piper Weiss – Auntie of a one year old boy genius named Phoenix, fabulicious Senior Features Editor, Yahoo Shine and author of My Mom The Style Icon:
Piper said: "There is nothing more attention-grabbing than a red dress. that's why it was invented. It's really innovative to use it to get people to pay attention to a very serious health issue. This is my ultimate red dress: it's a photo of victoria principal from a 1980 Dallas promotional shot. I know it's weird butI just love the cut of that dress. the thin spaghetti straps, the deep Vee (oh my Victoria!) and the belted waist. I also love the color which seems to me a little maroon rather than bright red."
Pictured here: Vintage brown pumps ($33, etsy.com), vintage small brown satchel (sold-etsy.com), wood bangles, three skinny stacking bangles ($75, etsy.com).
Michelle Joni Lapidos-Social Media Director of Spa Week, and all around fabulous chick.
Michelle said: "Heart health month holds a special place in my… well… heart. Heart disease has affected loved ones of mine, and as a health and wellness blogger, I want to stress that stressing is unhealthy, and eating well and exercising isn't just good for your waistline. To reaffirm this message in my attire, on February 3rd my dream outfit would include bad-ass Mugler leather pants, Linda Farrow heart sunglasses, red Louboutin soles, and a hot fuchsia top to match the BOOM BOOM beating of my heart underneath."
Pictured here: Roksanda Ilincic Otto wool-crepe and silk-organza top ($740, net-a-porter.com). Mugler skinny pant ($2370, barneys.com). Dannijo Mica necklace ($680, dannijo.com), Linda Farrow Projects sunnies ($259, couture.zappos.com),Christian Louboutin patent leather peep toe platform pumps ($945, saksfifthavenue.com), ASOS statement geometric cocktail ring ($10.74, us.asos.com)
Vivianne La Pointe – transplanted Canadian enjoying California sunshine, blogger extraordinaire, founder and Editor-In-Chief Live Fast Mag
Vivianne said: "Studies show that exercise is the single most important thing women can do for heart health. For men – it's sex! So on National Red Wear Day I will do Pilates in boudoir attire and do everything in my power to keep my family healthy!" Vivianne told us.
Pictured here:La Fee Vert ruffle front romper ($130, nordstrom.com), Lookmatic Marilyn frames in red ($88 prescription, $58 frames only, lookmatic.com), Rodarte bracelet ($294, thecorner.com), YSL Tribtoo cap toe pump ($795,bergdorfgoodman.com).
Bryce Gruber – Socialite, mommy and Editrix of The Luxury Spot.
Bryce said: "Heart health is extremely important to me. At three years old I was diagnosed with extremely high cholesterol- it's a genetic thing that almost every woman in my family has been dealing with for generations (since the beginning of cholesterol tests, I suppose). I'm also an Aries, so wearing red is very near and dear to me. I love this J. Crew dress because, well, it's cashmere. It can be dressed up or down, like with these gorgeous Prada heels and ruby earrings from Blue Nile. I also chose a vintage Valentino watch, because Valentino is the expert at glamorous red anything!"
Pictured here: Cashmere tee dress ($228, jcrew.com), Ruby and diamond filigree earrings ($680, bluenile.com), Valentino crocodile alligator thick wristband Swarovski crystal red watch ($799, shopbellabag.com), Prada rosette trim platform sandal ($790, nordstrom.com).

I'm a warm-hearted, old-school gentleman explorer with really cool toys. INTJ. Browncoat.

The Little Country Stone Cottage
This is where Marie Antoinette headed when she wanted to get away from it all, that is, while she was still headed.
This location is out in the gardens around Versailles. And it's not just a little short walk to the main part of Versailles. I bet Marie had to jump into a horse and carriage to over and visit the rest of the family in the palace!

Lining up at wide receiver, Kenn James sprinted in motion toward the backfield last week against Cal Poly. USD backup quarterback Kyle Miller took the snap, handing off to James as he flew past.
In an instant, James sped into the open field and, in a sense, darted into the past.
Back to 2011, back to when he rushed for 1,153 yards, back to when he scored 15 touchdowns for the Toreros, back to before an ankle injury ruined his 2012 junior season.
Against Cal Poly, James cradled that handoff, burst into the open field and sped off on a 67-yard run.
"It happened so fast," James said, "that my body just took off. ... It felt really good to get back, making big plays again."
USD, which is riding a 12-game home winning streak, plays its 2013 home opener this evening against Division II Western New Mexico. If the Toreros are to meet their goal and advance to the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs for the first time ever, James returning to 2011 form will make the task easier.
A Mt. Carmel High product, the 5-foot-7, 175-pound James paid a price for his memorable 2011 season. Bones spurs formed in his left ankle.
"I think it built up over my whole life," he said. "I cut really hard."
He also tore ligaments in the ankle. In May 2012, four months before his junior season, James underwent major surgery on his ankle.
After rushing for 1,151 yards as a sophomore he dropped to 410 yards last season.
"He couldn't play at the same level because of the injury," said USD quarterback Mason Mills. "His mind was there, but his body didn't respond. That's not his fault."
Said James, "If you can suit up, you can't use the excuse you weren't 100 percent."
But he admits the year was emotionally taxing.
"To go from what I did as a sophomore to being put in the last four minutes of a blowout, that was extremely difficult," he said.
What kept him going?
"My love of the game and just my will to overcome any obstacle," he said. "And to prove that I still am who I am."
James holds the CIF San Diego Section 11-man record for most yards rushing in a game. His senior year against Westview he gained a whopping 436 yards.
James finished with 102 yards rushing on only seven carries against Cal Poly. His sophomore year at USD, he averaged 21.6 touches a game.
He says the right thing about the Toreros being blessed with multiple running backs who can help the team.
But sitting beneath the shade of a tree after practice, he added, "Every running back wants the rock. And I'm no different."

Game time 6 p.m. Torero Stadium
Webcast usdtoreros.com
Toreros key In a 38-16 loss to Cal Poly last week, the Toreros surrendered 307 yards rushing, an average of 8.1 yards per carry. The defensive challenge is different tonight. Western New Mexico QB Mitch Glasman threw for 3,139 yards and 27 TDs last season as a freshman, both records since the school moved to Division II in 1993. ...The Mustangs are coached by former West Hills and Grossmont CC product Adam Clark.

Best Of :: People & Places
This former education dean at Texas Southern University rode the Republican express from an HISD trustee post to district superintendent to George Bush's secretary of education. Paige, whose college doctoral thesis was on the response times of collegiate football linemen, embraced the TAAS testing mania to score glory and hype as top public educator in the United States. But the blush may be off the rose for the newly minted Washington bureaucrat. A number of publications, including U.S. News and World Report and The New Republic, have reported that both the Bushies and Paige have soured on one another, and Paige may be thinking of returning to Houston.
This professor-on-the-move replaced sleepy Felix Fraga just a year and a half ago and is already developing into the power player of Houston Hispanic politics. Raised in Corpus Christi and Austin, Vasquez came to town as a communications prof at the University of Houston, and quickly began laying the groundwork for a political career. He used his first term as a Houston Independent School District trustee to build a network of support among Anglos in the Heights, and then steamrollered over a barricade of established Hispanic politicos to win a council seat. Since then he has carefully charted a course as an independent between council conservatives and the bloc supporting Mayor Lee Brown. Vasquez recently demonstrated his growing muscle by joining outgoing councilman John Castillo in an attack on Brown aide Carol Alvarado, who's running to replace Castillo in District I. Gabe has made no secret of the fact he aspires to be Houston's first Hispanic mayor, and at the speed he's been moving, that could put him in the race for the top spot in 2004.
Just look up. On bridges, buildings, trains, the backs of freeway signs, the tag is everywhere. It's an inspirational call to the "next" generation, a macho throw-up that conveys the adrenaline, irreverence and illegality of its creation. Most of all, it's cool. But the Houston Police Department's antigang task force doesn't think so. Last March, officers raided a legal graffiti show in a warehouse on the east side. Wearing all black with guns strapped to their legs, the officers said they were looking for "intel." But aerosol artists say the cops were really looking for Next, the most prolific graffitist in town. The task force was out of luck, though. Next was nowhere to be found.
Most courts wouldn't take much time with an 11-year-old troublemaker. But J.P. George Risner did what the Houston school district had refused to do: have the imbalanced youngster checked out by mental health professionals. Now the youth is on medication -- and back on track in school. Risner, in his 14 years on the bench, has proved time and again that he's determined to take his responsibilities far beyond just clearing dockets. He's held court at night and on weekends to be more accessible to the public and to parents. The former Houston building inspector has a rock-solid record in innovative programs to fight youthful problems such as truancy and juvenile delinquency. While Risner has received extensive training, he doesn't have a law degree. What he does have is more than enough: common sense, innate fairness and a keen interest in helping others.
Of course, the travesties continue: tearing down the old Gulf Publishing building on Allen Parkway, bulldozing bits and pieces of the precious past, flushing out Houston's final habitat hideaways for the sake of nothing more than the sameness of another new Rolling-Creek-Timber-Valley-Plantation-Estates subdivision. But the Bayou City shows more indications than ever that it just might be starting to appreciate its heritage. The rebirth of downtown awoke the greediest of developers to the potential for profits in preserving historic structures, even through costly conversions. Blocks of buildings restored as lofts are beginning to line the central city. Commercial uses are coming back as well. It seems that restorations are being considered for many more buildings (at least the ones not owned by Hakeem Olajuwon). Coupled with that are more aggressive wetlands preservation programs and nature centers. However, the most honorable of efforts can't begin to compare to the Restoration of 2001. This one involves several hundred square miles of the region. The rehab bill ran $5 billion and up for a collective project to rehouse about 100,000 residents and restore about half that many vehicles. The very heart of Houston -- the Texas Medical Center, colleges, the criminal courts system and the fine arts institutions -- had to be rebuilt in many ways from the devastation of Tropical Storm Allison.
The best smell? Coffee, of course. And there's no bigger coffee smell in town than the odor steaming out of Kraft's Maxwell House factory, a few blocks (and miles of attitude) east of Enron Field. Most days the prevailing winds blow that smell, ooh that smell, in a northwesterly direction, toward the north end of downtown and away from most eastside residents, many of whom can more or less stand on their porches and read the smoky plume from the one-million-square-foot facility for changes in the weather. And a fine day it is when the winds change, blowing that slightly processed coffee smell back over the near east side, where it mingles with, and partially masks, the cabbagy stink of wastewater treatment facilities and some of the ranker stretches of Buffalo Bayou. Fusion City, indeed.

really should remove the spoiler from the title
there's going to be a few fans looking forward to watching it and having it ruined by seeing this title.
then again you shouldnt go on an mma forum if you dont want spoilers
"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war"
Loud debut for Daley - delighted for him. Kampmann played into his hands. Right decision from Lavigne. Kampmann didn't realise fight over for 8 or 9 seconds. Spot on.
But i tried editing the post but it wouldn't let me change the title...so yeah!
At the end of the day though, if people would rather whine about a thread title (like you say, don't come on an MMA forum if you want to avoid any nasty surprises...particularly one with an impact such as this) than big Paul up for the result, then i really don't give a shit to be honest!
I think Kampmann went in there thinking he would strike and see how that goes, and if he got in trouble, take Daley down at will - not happening bruv!
Daley's takedown defence was on point and his strikes were vicious.
Great performance Paul, big well done from all the lad's at Team Kaobon.

If you're a fan of Acura's ZDX, the unconventionally-styled crossover oozing with luxury and technology, you need to head down to the dealership this year. Acura is ending production of the ZDX after the 2013 model.
The ZDX shares its platform with the MDX, but apparently not its popularity. The ZDX is without a doubt a luxurious crossover filled with technology. It's easy to get into the ZDX crossover and say "Wow, this is nice." But when people start thinking about roominess and functionality behind the front row, the ZDX doesn't jump to mind.
For 2013, the ZDX will be sold as a single, value-added package offering more features and value. Often, the best deals to be had on a vehicle are during its final year of production.
Standard in the new ZDX are a 435-watt surround sound system with 10 speakers and a 15GB hard disk drive memory, Acura navigation with voice recognition, , an 8-inch hi-res display, a multi-view rear camera, Bluetooth, heated and ventilated power leather seats (10 ways for the driver, 8 for the passenger), keyless entry with pushbutton start and dual-zone climate control.
New for 2013 are power-folding outside mirrors and parking sensors on the front and rear bumpers. New safety features include forward collision and lane departure warning systems.
The ZDX has anti-lock brakes and a full complement of airbags and other safety features, but has not been fully tested yet by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The ZDX did get the top rating of "good" in the IISH moderate overlap front test.
The 2013 ZDX is powered by an all-aluminum 3.7-liter V6 engine that kicks out 300 horsepower and 270 lb.-ft. of torque. The engine is hooked to a 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. Acura's Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system is standard.
The interior of the ZDX is plush and refined if not roomy behind the front row, but the panoramic glass roof with power sunshades helps expand the interior.
Passenger volume is 95.8 cubic feet, and cargo space is 27.5 cubic feet with the second row in place. With row No. 2 down, cargo room is 57.3 cubic feet.
The gauge clusters are fairly complex and crowded, but the large hooded display screen at the top is just right.
Standard is the AcuraLink Communication System and XM Satellite Radio with Real-Time Traffic and Weather (available in most markets, including Baton Rouge). The weather feature is really cool, displaying weather radar in color. The radar doesn't have motion, but it is updated every few moments.
The ZDX rolls on 19-inch alloy wheels and has Xenon high-discharge headlights as well as a power tailgate. We had a great time driving the lame-duck ZDX and achieved the expected mileage ratings of 16 miles per gallon in the city and 23 mpg on the highway, for an average of 19 mpg. With the ZDX's 21-gallon tank, the range of this crossover is about 400 miles.
The ZDX is a substantial and heavy vehicle, weighing in at 4,438 lbs. of curb weight.
Pricing is pretty simple for the ZDX: it costs $50,920 plus $895 in freight.
Although 2013 is the last year of production for the ZDX, Acura promises to continue all service and parts availability for owners for the life of the vehicles.
2013 Acura ZDX
- Engine: 3.7-liter V6
- Horsepower: 300
- Transmission: 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters
- Test model base price: $50,920
- EPA mileage rating: 16 mpg city / 23 mpg highway

Time for some daily chit-chat ladies :-) If you think you'll be somewhere in the beginning of the month and enjoy daily interaction then come on in, bookmark us and introduce yourself!
Click here to sign up on our chart (or copy and paste this URL into your browser):
Helpful Hints & How To:
Pineapple core - get a core (I get the peeled/cored kind) - slice the core into 5 sections and take each section from 1dpo - 5dpo. No later than 3dpo-7dpo! You can eat some meat with it to help it go down easier or mix it into a small milkshake... There is also the option of getting Bromelain Tablets (amazon, etc) to take instead...
POM Juice - 8oz a day for 5 days after O. Pom juice helps to thicken your uterine lining. Some girls like to mix it with sprite or ginger ale because the taste can be overwhelming. The womb lining (endometrium) where the actual implant of fertilized eggs takes place almost entirely consists of blood and pomegranates contain high levels of cobalt which is an essential raw material for the synthesis of blood. Cobalt also contributes to the colour of the fruit too. BUT as with pineapple, only AFTER ovulation!!! Could hinder getting pregnant if before. But after a BFP (big fat positive (pregnancy test)) you can use it your whole pregnancy. Good for so many things. folic acid...leg cramps...lots of stuff!
B6 - supposed to improve infertility by 120%! Plus it helps with MS (morning sickness or multiple sclerosis) so either way this is a great vitamin to be taking!
Mucinex - 3-5 days before O (ovulation) - make sure you get the kind that has Guaifenesin in it - take as directed about 10 days before ovulation - DRINK LOTS OF WATER!! This helps increase your EWCM (egg white cervical mucus) and you should notice a big difference! (Not recommended if you are trying to girl sway!)
Baby Asprin (81mg) - some doctors recommend taking a daily baby aspirin if you have miscarried or have repeated mc's - if you're just starting to TTC (trying to conceive) I wouldn't worry about this unless you've gone a few months without success, then I'd try it just to see... but once you're pregnant check with the doc about continuing - some want you to and others don't....
Temping - get a basal thermometer - take your temp at wakeup time - this needs to be the same time everyday so if you wake up at 4am for work then on your days off you need to be alarming to temp at 4am as well ;-)
Sperm meets the egg plan - if you haven't read this - it has some good information in it! :-)
Fertility foods: waywardstork.blogspot.com/2008/10/f...
Orgasm Sways: When the female has an orgasm it makes the pH more alkaline, which is favorable to male sperm. Without the O, it is more acidic which the stronger female sperm can survive in longer. Girl=NO O Boy=O :-)
YELLOW CM? Don't be embarrassed it might lead to BFP! :-)

Libraries & Spaces
Information for:
Washington Research Library Consortium (WRLC)
The Washington Research Library Consortium (WRLC) was established in 1987 by some of the major universities in the Washington D.C. area to share library collections and information technology in order to enhance the resources available to their students and faculty. Georgetown participates in the WRLC through its Consortium Loan Service (CLS) and through cooperative collection development. WRLC operates a shared offsite storage facility designed to free valuable space in the campus libraries for newer or more frequently-accessed materials. The storage facility provides high-density, environmentally-controlled, retrievable storage for books, audiovisual or microform media, and archival boxes. Individual items are sorted by size in order to store the maximum number of items in the minimum floor area. Students and faculty of WRLC libraries may submit online requests for items stored at the "WRLC Center" using the WRLC Library Catalog's Request feature. Materials requested by 5 pm are delivered to the library the next business day.
For more information, visit the WRLC's website at www.wrlc.org

Local Chief Judge: I'll Respect Constitution, Keep Local Federal Courts Open
The local Chief Federal Judge says government shutdown or no government shutdown, the local federal criminal courts will not close, 1200 WOAI news reports.
Chief U.S. District Judge Fred Biery told 1200 WOAI's Michael Board that the right to a speedy trial is enshrined in the Bill of Rights, and he will make sure the Constitution is respected, regardless of the bungling in Washington DC.
"The criminals benefit from speedy trial problems and so free," Biery said. "We don't want that."
The Justice Department had said that the courts have enough money to work about two business weeks despite new appropriations. That ten business days came to an end this week, but Biery says he has no intention of putting down his gavel.
"Especially the criminal cases," he said. "We can't risk letting the criminals run free."
It is unclear how federal court employees and Biery himself will be paid for continuing to work during the shutdown. Although the federal courts have been declared 'essential' government activities, if there are no appropriations from Congress, paychecks and other operating funds are in doubt.
He admits this is not a great decision for morale, and he says the entire government shutdown is annoying.
"It's just not the American way," he said. "It's almost like a third world country."

Looking for records of Luke Murrin who served in the 10th Ohio. He enlisted 6 Mar. 1861 in Cincinnati.
Jerry TwohigJune 9, 2015 at 2:24 am #
Patrick, Are you a relative of Mr Murrin's. I do have some data about him. I believe that I might have a copy of his pension. I also have some copies of his letters, photos Etc.
Richard SchneiderMarch 26, 2012 at 4:52 pm #
Thank for your followup and help. My great greanfather name was Thomas. My fault.He was my grandfather. Philip was his brother. Now I need to locate his name in a listinmg so it can be copied. I'll trylooking in the Ohio roster as you stated. I will email if i have any problems.
Thanks again,

I am looking for the Grave of PVT Louis Schuch ( Schuck, Shuck,) from 10th Ohio Infantry Co D killed at the Battle of Carnifex Ferry Sept 10th 1861. I have checked the Ancestry.com, Find a Grave and the Federal VA grave site websites and his pension and service records with no success. He is listed on the list of the dead from the Regimental field hospital. His brother George was in the same unit so I assume his body was identified. The State Park office at Carnifex Ferry said there were graves there at one time but they were relocated to Grafton W.VA around 1900 but the website for the cemetery does not list him. If anyone has any ideas where to look next or where others killed at that same battle are buried I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks.
June 9, 2016 at 2:59 am #
Thomas Joseph Kelly, I believe he was in Charlie Company where he was promoted to Sergeant. He did go on to make Colonel. Born 1833 in Ireland, died 1908.

Five changes were made by this amendment, as listed below:
|Forensic Diversion Program
|2004 - +
|destroy 6 years after release of individual from final discharge.
|Documentation supporting juror disqualifications, exemptions, and deferrals
|2003 - +
|retain for a minimum of two (2) years.

Administrative Rule 7 was created by the Supreme Court's Records Management Committee in 1985 and became effective January 1, 1988. From November 4, 1985 through December 31, 1987, compliance with the rule was voluntary. Prior to the creation of Judicial Retention Schedules, Trial Courts and Clerks disposed of records through their County Records Commission, which was established in 1939.
Yes, the language of Administrative Rule 7 makes it mandatory:
Section I. "A" states:
A. Authority to Dispose of Records. Clerks of Circuit Court, Judges and other court officers shall dispose of records in the manner set out in this Rule and in accordance with the retention schedules specified herein. The retention schedules set out in this Rule should be presented to the appropriate county records commission, one time only for informational purposes, before disposal of the records.
Exceptions to the rule are very limited:
Section I. A. allows for exemptions in special circumstances:
"Prior to disposal of judicial records not listed on this schedule, or if special circumstances necessitate the retention or disposal of judicial records in a manner not set forth in this Rule, a circuit court clerk, judge or other officer of the court must seek written authorization from the Division of State Court Administration to maintain or destroy such records."
The trial court, clerk, or court agency, in order to retain or dispose of records outside of the scope of Administrative Rule 7, must provide in writing to the Division of State Court Administration, stating what records require an exemption, the volume of records to be exempted, and specific reasons for seeking an exemption. The Division will weight cost, space needs and other factors in considering an exemption.
Admin Rule 7 applies retention periods for records; while Admin Rule 6 applies standards regarding the physical format of court records.
Administrative Rule 7 applies to court information, regardless if that information is created, maintained, or stored in paper format, in microform, or electronically. Use of microfilming or scanning to bypass application of Administrative Rule 7 is not permitted. Administrative Rule 7(B) states:
B. Records Authorized to Be Microfilmed. Records which call for microfilming under this Rule must be microfilmed in accordance with the provisions of Administrative Rule 6. The following are the only record series which are authorized to be microfilmed:
(1) Records whose retention requires microfilming;
(2) Records which may be maintained in original or microform, as provided in the retention schedules;
(3) Records which must be retained permanently, as provided in the retention schedules;
(4) Before disposal or transfer of records deemed permanent under subsections (1), (2), and (3), the court or clerk shall submit to the Division of State Court Administration a written request for such disposal or transfer. The Division shall audit each microfilmed record series for compliance with Administrative Rule 6, in documentation, legibility and storage environment and, upon audit, shall authorize such disposal or transfer of papers and ledgers meeting the standards of Administrative Rule 7. Microfilming other records is not authorized because the cost of microfilming exceeds the costs of storage for the duration of the retention period. If special circumstances arise, a circuit court clerk, judge, or other officer of the court may seek written authorization from the Division of State Court Administration to microfilm records other than those herein authorized.
Administrative Rule 7(C) permits a transfer, under the following conditions:
C. Records Authorized for Transfer. With the written approval of the Indiana Supreme Court, records authorized for transfer to the Archives Division of the Indiana Commission on Public Records may be deposited by said Commission with a local repository, such as a historical society, library, archives, or university, as designated by the Commission and meeting the archival standards of the Commission.
The schedules are arranged by type of jurisdiction and not by court.
The list of retention schedules is arbitrarily arranged by type of jurisdiction and not by court, since jurisdictions overlap from court to court with original, concurrent and exclusive jurisdictions. Different courts in different counties can exercise the same jurisdiction. The date of "1790" means that the record potentially could date from the formation of the county.
A retention schedule number, such as 85-4.3-04, is designed as a unique number to provide the following: the year of adoption of the schedules (1985), the jurisdiction (4.3, or family law/adoptions), and the record series item (04). As new record retention schedules are added, additional numbers will be assigned. If a series is amended, it will be followed by an "R" for "revised." The jurisdictions, which can be the same for a number of courts, are classified as:
See Section (10) of Administrative Rule 7, "Trial Rule 77 Schedules." Currently, the same time frame for such records created after 1990 are applied as for those records created before that date.
Admin Rule 7 does not cover "three-dimensional" evidence.
Evidence admitted into court falls into two broad categories: the first grouping includes paper or photos that can be made a part of the physical court file. For example, a claim for money usually includes the bill for services, which is attached to the complaint. The second category is that of "three-dimensional" evidence, such as oversized or enlarged photographs, charts, property, drugs, weapons, and the like. Also frequently included in criminal cases are biologically contaminated evidence, which can be used for DNA testing. Administrative Rule 7 does not address retention of three-dimensional evidence. Returning to the submitter or disposal of such evidence rests with the trial court through order or local rule.
Non-judicial records are not covered under Admin Rule 7.
Administrative Rule 7 addresses only court records. Fiscal and non-judicial records are covered through the Indiana Archives and Records Administration and the county commission on public records.
Records listed in Admin Rule 7 are not petitioned before the county records commission.
Records specifically listed in Administrative Rule 7 do not go before the county or state commissions on public records. The specific retention schedule in Admin Rule 7 speaks to the length of time a record must be kept, and no additional procedures or forms are needed to implement Administrative Rule 7, unless court records are microfilmed or scanned. In these situations, notice and authorization from the Division of State Court Administration is required on the appropriate form found on the Supreme Court's web site.
Admin Rule 7, nor any state statute governs how records are to be destroyed.
Administrative Rule 7 and state statute do not address how records are to be destroyed. This office recommends that court records be destroyed under supervision of the clerk's office so that records do not reappear for sale. Confidential records must be destroyed in a manner which guarantees their confidentiality.
Disposal of records must follow Admin Rule 7 unless ordered returned.
See question 5 for disposal of records to local or state institutions. The Division notes that when a case is filed in court, that filing becomes part of the official record of that court and thus a court record, losing any proprietary right for the filer. To return pleadings to the one filing them begs the issue of which pleadings belong to which litigant and which belong to the court. Unless ordered by the court that a case be returned to the filer, it would be an administrative problem to divvy up pleadings in a case to return such to the filer.
Records created wholly by the court or clerk must be destroyed according to the retention schedule. The Division recommends that unless a court orders otherwise, in a specific case, all records are to be destroyed following the appropriate schedule established by Admin Rule 7.

Houston, TX (SportsNetwork.com) - Speaking publicly for the first time since undergoing experimental treatment for cancer, Houston Texans owner Bob McNair told the media Thursday that doctors have given him a clean bill of health.
McNair revealed to reporters that he had been battling chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) for the past 10 months at Houston's M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, where the 77-year-old was given a series of powerful radiation doses known as proton therapy.
The intense treatment sessions caused one side of McNair's face to be subjected to second-degree burns that required a plastic surgeon to repair.
McNair has had previous episodes with skin cancer and said he was diagnosed with CLL, a cancer of the blood and bone marrow, six years ago.
"My skin has been abused by the sun for an extended period of time," McNair shared. "As a result of that, over the last 20 years probably, I've had a regular procedure of going to the dermatologist.
"Last fall, I had an occurrence, it was just like a small pimple behind my left ear on the side of my head. I went in and my dermatologist looked at it and recognized that instead of being a non-cancerous growth was perhaps a squamous cell skin cancer. I went in and had surgery on that."
McNair said he had a CT scan performed in April and was declared cancer-free again by his doctors on Monday.
"At this point in time, its history," he stated.

Hi Guys,
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if B|T has been 'tweaked' to avoid doing what I'm trying to do.
I'm trying to ascertain if the value of a file's MD5 sum changes when the 'Accessed' and 'Modified' dates change.
I know that you can change the 'Accessed' date by using 'touch', for example:
However, when I try this in B|T the 'Accessed' details remain the same.Code:touch /root/Desktop/someFileName.txt
I've checked the file permissions and they look ok, so I don't think it's that (I'm root anyway so that shouldn't be an issue). Google suggests that this should work, and I can't find anything similar here on the forums.
Any thoughts anybody? Am I going about this the wrong way?
