Americus, Ga.- The Brevard College men's basketball team was edged 67-62 by the Hurricanes of Georgia Southwestern State University Saturday afternoon in the Storm Dome.
The Tornados were within striking distance in the final minutes of play against the Hurricanes, but Georgia Southwestern was able to hit enough free throws down the stretch to seal the victory.
Junior guard Dominique Pickett dropped in a game-high 22 points to lead the Tornados, adding five assists and three rebounds on the night.
The Hurricanes scored the first seven points of the game, but BC answered with a 15-8 run to tie the game at 15-15 on Pickett three-pointer at the 8:07 mark in the opening half.
The two teams traded baskets before the Hurricanes closed the half on a 14-5 run to take a 12-point lead into halftime.
Alan Arnett led the Hurricanes with 14 points and seven rebounds. Austin Kelly and Jamon Hawkins each scored 12 points for Georgia Southwestern.
Sophomore Gerel Simmons had 15 points for the Toranados, and was a perfect 4-for-4 from beyond the arc. Freshman Manzey Miller was active on the defensive end for the Tornados, collecting four steals to go along with five points and three rebounds.
The Tornados will be back in action Wednesday, November 14 as they host the North Greenville Crusaders at 7 pm.

Morning Toilet (or With His Mother)
about 1888
Anders Zorn, Swedish, 1860-1920
Oil on canvas, 60 x 36 cm
Genre: European Art, Paintings
Location: Veronese Room
Accession Number: P25e13
This sketchy painting is one of the most charming bathing scenes among a group painted by Anders Zorn in 1888. Zorn captures a single moment during a bright summer morning at the shore. Stones of different forms and shades are reflected in the clear and nearly motionless water. Mother and child, both nude, seem to melt into the landscape. With its thin colors and efficiency of brushstrokes, Morning Toilet illuminates Zorn's transition from a watercolorist to an oil painter at this time in his career.
Executed outdoors on a small island in the Stockholm archipelago, Morning Toilet is part of a larger group of nude paintings and drawings in which Zorn explored the motif of a mother bringing her child into the water. Most of the pictures show a mother standing next to her boy, bending slightly over him, and tenderly holding her arm around his neck…. Morning Toilet accentuates instead an idyllic landscape setting. The group is shown at some distance along the shore, with the child now confidently stepping into the shallow and presumably warmer water. Zorn attempts to emphasize the harmonious relationship between the human figures and surrounding landscape. He celebrates an arcadian unity between nature and mankind.
Zorn claimed that he painted his nudes on the spot, outdoors, in the archipelago. The paintings have a fresh and spontaneous look, as if the colors were directly applied in a short amount of time. Mother and child in… appear to be unposed, and caught in the moment. Nevertheless, their similar poses, taken from different angles, raise the question of the degree of care with which the figures were actually studied by Zorn. The well-balanced composition hints at considerable time spent by the artist in perfecting the results. An undated photograph perhaps part of a larger series, might have served him as an additional aid to fix the motif.
Pictures of female nudes outdoors are Zorn's most innovative subject type. The summer of 1888 was an extraordinarily fruitful one for Zorn. His subsequent success came quickly. He won a gold medal for A Première at the Exposition Universelle in Paris in 1889, and a medal for another nude painted that summer, Outdoors, at the Salon in Paris, also in 1889. Highly content with Morning Toilet, Zorn made an etching of it under the title With Her Child in 1890. The painting presumably entered Isabella Stewart Gardner's collection as a present in early 1896. In May of that year Zorn wrote enthusiastically to her: "You ask me what I think of the Morning Toilet. Beautiful! Beautiful! Best thing I ever did!" Because of the sensual frankness of Zorn's nude paintings, they were not as successful in the United States as in Europe. Gardner's Morning Toilet is thus a rarity within American collections. Sometime after its arrival in Puritan-minded Boston, its "scandalous" content was censored by retouching the woman's pubic area. This retouching has now been removed.

Brand marketing communications is our bread and butter. We thrive on developing creative ideas that are on strategy and complement the integrated marketing mix. We've helped brand managers launch new products, build excitement for promotions, and reinvigorate their brands, numerous award-winning times.
We're no strangers to integrated marketing programs, and we work with agency partners in experiential marketing, advertising and digital. Whether we're the lead agency or contributing our part to the team, we believe integrated programs produce the best results for the brand
We take a simple approach. 1) We work hard to build and maintain strong relationships with media and influencers across the country. 2) We give them good stories to tell. There's no magic bullet. There are no shortcuts. It takes time and effort, but pays off in results.
We consume news in all its forms. We make it our mission to understand our clients' businesses and their consumers, and to identify the issues and opportunities that affect their brands. We have a team of self-proclaimed "measurement geeks" on staff, and we provide our clients with thoughtful online and traditional measurement analysis.
Reputation management, employee communications, community relations, corporate social responsibility – we've done it all. Our team of strategists and expert writers can ensure that all of your company's communications tell one cohesive story that aligns with your company values and business objectives.
Reputation matters, and how a company handles an issue or crisis can seal its fate in the minds of consumers. We have experienced issues management strategists who can counsel clients through an issue.
We work with leading brands that are committed to building loyalty and support in the communities where they do business. We can help develop and amplify community relation programs that build strong and mutually beneficial relationships.
We consume news in all its forms. We make it our mission to understand our clients' businesses and their consumers, and to identify the issues and opportunities that affect their brands. We have a team of self-proclaimed "measurement geeks" on staff, and we provide our clients with thoughtful online and traditional measurement analysis.
We create direct-to-consumer engagements and experiences that people are compelled to share. We help build brand stories by connecting with target consumers through custom events, product sampling and unique one-of-a-kind experiences. Our creative ideas are brought to life with our team's unrelenting focus on detail and process for a flawless execution.
Whether we're planning for a year-long program or a small project, the process is the same.
The first step is always to hear from our client: what are their business goals and objectives? Our job is to ask questions to clarify and help us define and refine how PR fits into the mix. For consumer marketing mandates with a larger scope, an integrated marketing approach always works best. Planning PR together with advertising, digital and experiential agencies to develop an integrated campaign is time and money well spent. It also helps us understand our client's business better – which is always a good thing.
Based on our client's business objectives, agreed upon PR goals – and budget – our team will set out to develop a strategy to realize the PR goals. We'll ask ourselves, Who do we need to reach? What's our story? What are our key messages? How can we tell our story most effectively?
Once our strategic roadmap is in place, we tap our team's creative power. We think big and we have fun with our divergent ideas. But, our facilitator is skilled at keeping the brainstorm on strategy so that we don't veer off course. (Only sometimes, for our own amusement.)
With the brainstorm behind us, the core account team takes a critical look at the creative ideas within the context of strategy, budget, time and resources. This part of the process is about making the ideas workable. It involves refining, altering, or even creating new ideas. At the end of this creative refinement we are left with the tactics – the nuts and bolts of how our strategy comes to life and how our PR goals will be met.
At this stage, we set specific, measurable PR objectives. How will we define success specific to this program? What are our quantitative and qualitative measures? It's different in every situation, and we work with our client to determine what the best benchmark for success will be.
"What sets a great agency apart in my mind is the ability to listen, anticipate and deliver unique, compelling ideas. Paradigm does all these exceptionally well. Combine these attributes with great management, strong collaboration with other partners, and friendly, helpful staff and you have a recipe for a great business partner. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone."
"I've worked with the team at Paradigm for more than six years on the Schick brands and now on Playtex and I trust them to deliver creative, innovative ideas that are on strategy, are cost-effective and are designed to deliver the results we need for our brands. I love working with them."
"Creativity and client service is what sets Paradigm apart. Over the past five years the Paradigm team has continued to develop ideas and concepts that break through and help move the needle on our business. Most importantly their creativity is on strategy. I am always excited to see what they will come up with next."
We deliver smart, creative thinking for every industry and audience we serve.

Flow XT Conference Table showcased at NeoCon.
CHICAGO--Nucraft Furniture Company has announced that its Flow XT Conference Table has received the first Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) in the North American furniture industry, independently certified by SCS Global Services (SCS). The EPD, a transparent disclosure of environmental performance based on life cycle assessment (LCA), was on display at NeoCon 2013 in the Nucraft showroom at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago.
"Nucraft has a longstanding commitment to sustainability, as evidenced by our selection of furniture construction materials and our many certifications," says Bob Bockheim, Nucraft president. "We are pleased to be able to provide even greater environmental transparency to our customers through this new Environmental Product Declaration."
EPDs are increasingly popular in the green building and commercial interior design sectors as a new method for informing customers about the environmental performance of products. EPDs are now being reviewed for potential inclusion in industry environmental rating systems, such as LEED v4.
Prepared in conformance with international standards (ISO 14025), EPDs describe the LCA study conducted, and provide LCA results for selected environmental impact categories. The specific categories reported are determined by the published Product Category Rules (PCR) under which the EPD is published. The Nucraft Flow XT Conference Table EPD reports results for five such categories: Global Warming Potential over 100 years, Photochemical Oxidation Creation Potential (i.e., smog), Acidification Potential (i.e., acid rain), Stratospheric Ozone Formation Potential (i.e., ozone hole), and Eutrophication Potential (i.e., depletion of oxygen in water bodies caused by pollution). It is now publicly available for review in the SCS Green Products Database (scsglobalservices.com/green-products).
"Through the publication of its Environmental Product Declaration, Nucraft has taken one more step to establish its position as an environmental leader in its industry," says Stowe-Hartridge Beam, managing director of the SCS Environmental Certification Services division. SCS, an established third-party certification body, is an EPD Program Operator.
In addition to pursuing and publishing this EPD, Nucraft has taken a number of steps by which it has gained independent recognition under some of the most widely recognized certifications in the industry. For instance, Nucraft is a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain of Custody certified manufacturer, and operates a manufacturing facility that is LEED-NC Silver certified. In addition, Nucraft offers BIFMA level® certified products, its casegoods meet the ANSI/BIFMA x7.1 Furniture Emission Standards for indoor air quality, and all tables can be specified for FSC-certified wood.

2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Stafon Johnson, RB, USC
Aside from Joe McKnight, Johnson is perhaps the most dynamic player in USC's ultra talented running back stable. As with McKnight, he was a highly recruited player coming out of high school. He played a limited, reserve-type role for the Trojans in 2006. He then made a big impact in 2007 rushing for 673 yards on only 98 carriers (6.9 ypc) with 5 TDs. Johnson had a solid junior campaign finishing the year with 705 yards on the ground in 138 attempts (5.1); he almost doubled his scoring total from the previous season with 9 TDs. Johnson is a great athlete with good speed (4.43) and agility; he has an explosive burst and is a threat to go the distance. He can be very elusive and effective in one-on-one situations. His good size and bulk enable him to hit the holes with authority. Although, he was not fully utilized as a receiver, but his hands are reliable and can catch on the run and adjust to poor passes. However, Johnson must improve his lower body power and run more aggressively; as it is, he runs too high, taking too many body shoots. He needs to work as a blocker, and his wwareness and technique must improve. He has to be more aggressive and physical at the point. Johnson has durability issues, but really needs more experience and polish at the passing game. Johnson is one of those players who projects as a better pro than college back. He has all the intangibles to be successful at the next level. He is a mid-rounder with tons of upside as a fulltime tailback.

He deserves to be drafted after coming back from his weightlifting injury. I couldn't begin to imagine that whole thing. Good luck Stafon, you're gonna need it.

The Game lashes out at paparazzi in defense of Khloe Kardashian
Listen to The Game on iHeartRadio
The Game lashed out against photographers last night, threatening to go all Kanye, and it was all in defense of Khloe Kardashian.
TMZ is reporting that Khloe and Game were getting swarmed as they walked out of Tru Nightclub and Game put all the paparazzi on notice, shouting, "Put your cameras down, or there's gonna be 7 broke cameras!"
And just to make sure the paps were paying attention, Game played the Yeezy card, adding, "You thought Kanye was a problem? I'm a REAL problem!"
As for what set Game off, the crowd around Khloe was seriously obnoxious shouting comments about Lamar Odom's crack addiction, and coming on to her. Problem is the photogs weren't the ones yelling that stuff. Seems like ther were some interlopers and haters in the bunch.
Either way, The Game got pretty heated and it looked like things were going to get out of control. But the video ends before any punches were throne, and it look slike Game and Khloe and their friends went into W Hotel before things got out of hand.
Watch the video here.

not for me man
not for me man
Me: "I'm going out mom."
Mom: "Have fun!"
Me, I have no need to go out @ 2am, I'm a nerdy ass writer so I'd like to get some sleep before school. But when I do go out at 2am, I just sneak out the window or leave the garage open just enough so I can squeeze out quietly. But here's what I do to not have to go out in the middle of the night, I learn Parkour. If you're fat, you're fucked. Sorry. Learn Parkour, and you won't have to worry about being caught. If someone sees you, You know you're probably gonna get away, as long as you'er half good.
I just sneak out on the weekends to bomb. I keep my paint in the garage and just grab it and go. Theres not too many writers in my town though so i have to be careful cuz my parents know i write and think i just do legal walls
the way i get my supplies is i go with my bro and tell my dad were going for a walk then go to a shop and bye some stuff we sneak the money
I dont know,i just go out...
Without a dad my mom works nights so i can usually go out all night just have to be back before 6am
racking is real easy were i live i just walk in with a plastic bag and walk out the garden center
its real hrd for me to get out any one got any ideas??
im 9 so i hop out of my race car bed and grab my crayolas and hit the streets...and you cant forget the pedo-repel pedophile repellant. and NEVER fall for those free candy/puppies/ice cream signs...
"A picture is worth a thousand words....and community service, but like i said WORTH"
Fresh Paint and ironlak are the shit.
A lot of baby boomers are baby bongers.
-Kevin Nealon
R.I.P. Eyedea
Bomb in daylight in my town there this big ass wall noting is written on it but then I want to bomb with others theres an other wall some cool shit on it tho my estate is pretty much just full of walls so it heaven
when your racking cans wear baggy pants and a large shirt that goes a little past your balls (vag if your a girl but if you are why are you out of the kitchen?) make shure nobodys looking and shub 1-4 cans in your crottch if your fat this wont worrk cuz it will look like you have a very large boner but if your skinney it will and then just walk out or buy somethen while your doing it (like more spraypaint) oh and remember kids dont get caught =)
or put a gun to the shop keepers head and ask for everything but thats taking it a bit to far youll probs end up in jail so be carefull if your using a gun
Lol my parents not prohibit me, they even let me be
Dude i have the same prob, i just wait till 2:00 in the morning and sneak out, make sure you have something to keep track of time with.
I am the Dreadnaught!!
I live in Sao Paulo, Brazil in a neighborhood that is known to not have much graffiti, cuz its all apartments and there are always guards outside that see you, but the police suck so bad in this town that they take 20 minutes to answer your call and when they do if its for graffiti they won't get off their asses to fuck you over, they only do if they pass by you on patrol. The cheap cans are steal able in construction places like Home Depot (something like it, we don't have that in Brazil) but Montana and Ironlak are behind steel gates (?), so you have to ask the guy to give you a card with what your going to buy and then they give it to you at the check out. And as for going out, my parents think I just do it on paper for fun, so when I go out on fridays or saturdays (or holidays whatever) I just say Im going out Ill be home tomorrow, and over at my friends house I don't have to worry about his parents saying anything if they find cans, his mom and dad are pretty tight. Im 15 but I have a few friends that are a bit younger and a few that are a bit older, one is 18 and he buys the good cans for us since some of them you need documentation...
i referee untill i can afford some montannas the i buy some (dont need to be 18) and bomb shit. i say im going to hang with friends

Could be that XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX is not a valid MAC.
Extremely sorry if I am posting in an area where I am not supposed to. The last thing I want to do is upset mods or members. My question is probably a simple solution but I can't seem to figure it out. I have a backtrack live USB that I load. Once in the GUI I open the shell and change the mac as follows
then i use,Code:ifconfig wlan0 down ifconfig wlan0 hw ether XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX ifconfig wlan0 up
after that i try to connect to an access point and I always get stuck at "Obtaining IP address"Code:wicd wicd-client
When I just proceed without changing the MAC everything works fine as far as connecting to the AP. Has anyone else experienced this?
Could be that XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX is not a valid MAC.
A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.
well I though that could of been the case but then i change the second to last letter of my real mac address from d4 to e4 and left the first ten characters alone and still the same problem. I'm still playing with it and trying to work it out but still no go yet. It's really driving me crazy cause when i boot into ubuntu it works just fine.
If you are not able to change your mac address , then just turn the mac filter on your router off
Mac filtering is not on, on my router. That's the weird part. It doesn't work in Backtrack but when I boot into Ubuntu it works fine. It has to be something with backtrack I'm guessing. Unless the commands I enter in backtrack have to be slightly different other than that can't figure out what it is.

You were facing 7 felonies buddy. 7. That's like… let's see, 4 more than the number required to lock you up for life if I'm not mistaken. And your mom, she was facing, what? 6? Funny you are out and about these days.Funny how you got out without even posted a dollar for bond. "The most evil crime in our lifetime"? Really? Considering you weren't born after 9/11 and the millions of Iraqis who died after that based on lies, I would say that you are stretching it, just a tad huh? But since you decided to stop by, and you seem to be of the right IP location, I'll play along. First of all, I never said you killed anyone. In fact, again, I stated that it takes a very special kind of monster to pull the trigger on kids at close range. You, I said, were a low level criminal who probably got hooked into playing the role of setting up the patsy for whomever did this or arranged it. At worst you were a facilitator for an out of country team.. maybe. Maybe not. But did I ever say you did this? Nah. You got that one wrong buddy. You might be flawed like everyone else, but I never said you were a monster. Now, since you are here, why don't you explain why your name is on that police radio traffic recording from that day and how you got such a nifty deal to stay out of the slammer after such a criminal history of not just you but other members of your family as well. I mean you have to admit, it does sound like your name comes back linked to that license in the recording and clearly that license is on that car which was towed out of that parking lot with that gun discovered in the back. So. Rather than just coming here making baseless accusations toward me, answer those questions and clear up the situation. Or would you prefer to just throw around some more generalized platitudes?" [/quote] what crime have you committed to acquiesce such a request from time warner cable? a cease and desist letter for expressing fictional viewpoints on a fringe website? threats of legal action must be viewed with discerning eyes as threats alone hold no weight unless you have committed a crime that can be cited. you have not committed a crime. also, since when is transcribing a document that is your property a crime?! Please do yourself, GLP, and me a favor-post up that letter from TWC and lets expose a real conspiracy. most TWC can do is to cancel your internet service agreement. DO NOT LET FEAR FROM THREATS OF LEGAL ACTION DETOUR YOU - STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND FACE TWC WITH SOME TESTICULAR FORTITUDE! you make record. record makes court. court makes law. therefore if you are keeping record by sending TWC a response letter asking for clarification as to the laws being broken and to cite such law-once you have done that you should take the two letters down to the county clerk in your area and make these documents COURT RECORD. if you want to play games with them send them the document back and say "DENIAL FOR CAUSE: INCORRECT NAME". State that your name is "John C. Doe" not "JOHN C. DOE" and that this must be corrected before you take response as an all capital spelling indicates a fictitious entity. Keep copies, record them with the county clerk. you make record, record makes court, court makes law. you are record-you are law. -sheepdog [/quote] Remember that Cable Advisory Councils are now set up all across America in every town. Cable TV is part of the government propaganda machine. Is Time Warner a N.Y. cable provider? Propaganda bill H.R. 5736 approves lies to the American people. http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c112:H.R.5736: So if Time Warner is threatening you, it means that the government is concerned that their plot has unraveled. It took me a long time to read all these threads. Is there a way to burn a complete thread on to a DVD? I would like to share this info, and I'm worried that it will disappear.

I have been encouraged to hold strong so I am reposting initial report. Wish me luck..
Some more information to play with..
The Car?
So we have Adam Lanza driving to the scene in a Honda Civic that can be seen in the video clip of police removing an AR (Many say shotgun but the MSM is still reporting AR) from the trunk
link to www.youtube.com (secure)
and can also be seen leaving on a trailer here:
link to media.zenfs.com
The car was originally reported to be his mother's, and still is by the mass media. But in the police scanner recordings you can clearly hear the car being matched to a
Christopher Rodia
. So now we know it was not the mother's car Lanza drove to the school before this massacre.. But it was Chris Rodia's Civic. So who is Chris Rodia?
Police scanner confirming car is Rodia's
link to www.youtube.com (secure)
Chris Rodia
19 Volmmer Ave.
Norwalk, CT
link to www.facebook.com
Christopher A. Rodia is a 42 year old from Norwalk CT currently living in Miami, FL. He has quite a list of previous drug and burglary charges.. seems to be big on stealing leaf blowers since he is currently awaiting trial for atleast his 5th count of stealing a leaf blower. He had an active arrest warrant on October 8th. One of the more recent times he has been in the news was for stealing copper wire from a construction site with his 19 year old niece,
Cassandra Scire
. He was also found to be in possession of a large unmarked bag of
at the time. The 2 lived together on Volmmer with a large group of extended family.
link to www.westportnow.com
Cassandra Scire
19 Volmmer Ave.
Norwalk, CT
Cassandra Scire, 19 from Norwalk CT is the niece of Chris Rodia. She was charged as accomplice in the copper wire theft. Family members (Richard Scire) confirmed the relationship in comments on the above news article. There was much talk of her being a "crack babie" and being
mentally handicapped
. A family (JAKE GREEN) members comment claims "Rodia 'tricked' her into being part of the theft" and "had told her they were just going to walgreens". Another family member claimed Rodia to be a "manipulator" and called him a "bum".
comment by richard scire:
link to www.thehour.com
comment by jake green:
link to www.wtnh.com
I started with Cassandra's facebook and started trying to find connections through her family and friends. The Scire and Rodia families appear to be close with eachother, but I also found another family they are close with.. the
. There are many ties between family members facebook accounts.
A couple thoughts this far..
So Chris Rodia, career petty thief who can't seem to stay out of jail and is stealing copper wire to support a drug habbit (oxycodone), currently living in florida on the run from CT warrants, has a brand new looking Honda Civic registered to him in Connecticut that is being used by Nancy Lanza?
Let me note that he, himself does not have any direct association with the Lanza's on facebook.
Another thought is that this guy has a history of taking advantage of mentally challenged children. "Manipulating them to do crimes". See where I am going with this?
Now at this point I ran into a couple other interesting characters.
The Uzar's
George Uzar, Jr.
19 Volmmer Ave.
Norwalk, CT
24 Granite Dr.
Norwalk, CT
Phone: 203-981-3931
link to www.facebook.com
link to twitter.com
I ran into a very interesting find here with George.. I first found a news article relating to him as living at the same 19 Volmmer address at the same time as
Chris & Cassandra
. He seems to be a complete nut case (read his twitter lol) and is constantly in and out of jail. He has a website that sells Nazi Flags and Weapon accessories called CrazyWhiteBoyStuff:
link to www.crazywhiteboystuff.com
He also owns 2 porn sites linked to the Volmmer website according to whois results.
He was referred to as Cassandra's brother in comments on the news site. The first article I read was about him getting robbed and chasing the robbers down in his car and ramming them. The police investigated him and found him to be in possession of marijuana and mushrooms. Article below.
link to www.stamfordadvocate.com
Another article about him reckless driving and being arrested after ramming another car.
link to www.thehour.com
The most shocking find about him was the link to his parents
Allison and George Sr.
who shared the same 24 Granite Dr. address.
link to ct.blockshopper.com
Allison Uzar
24 Granite Dr.
Norwalk, CT
Allison seems to be doing well as Pharmaceutical Analyst for the company Perdue Pharma, a pain medication manufacture that produces
among other prescriptions. She seems very upper class with a Masters degree from Boston College. She DOES NOT fit into the picture especially with her husband
George Sr
. The last article I can find about Allison is her purchasing a house this year at
Ave, Connecticut
earlier this year.
link to www.thehour.com
George Uzar, Sr.
24 Granite Dr.
Norwalk, CT
George Uzar, Sr.. Somehow extended family of
Christopher Rodia
who, as we go full circle, owned the car Adam Lanza reportedly took from his mother to travel to the massacre. George is currently serving a long prison term for manufacturing
automatic assault rifles
. The mayor quoted "'Scary' Amount of Firearms Found in Raid on Norwalker's House". He was manufacturing fully automatic rifles and selling them to members of the Latin Kings. Apparently he snitched because he was arrested then a few days later the whole rest of the organization went down. Articles to his weapon manufacturing below. His son
George Jr.
was also arrested when the house was raided because of marijuana and a stashed .38 pistol.

^Take it as it is and put it all together for me.. I just spent 5 hours doing research and typing this whole rant up. I believe all of this information to be accurate as I tried to verify everything. Thanks GLP! /discuss.

I'm using Windows 8 Fax & Scan. I can't figure out how to scan a multi-page document into a single computer file. Every page scans into a separate file. I didn't have this problem when I was using Microsoft Office 2003 scanning software. However, I'm now using Microsoft Office 2007, which doesn't seem to contain the scanning software. I can't imagine scanning software that won't do what I want to do. Can you explain what's going on? Thanks.
Windows 8 includes a fantastic Scan & Fax utility, which supports the ability to scan in multiple pages into a single document if your scanner has an automatic document feeder. Place the documents or pages you want to scan into the feeder and open Windows Fax and Scan then click "New Scan."
In the next window, select your scanner from the list and click "OK" – this will bring up the scan interface. Now, look for the Source field, click the drop down menu and select "Feeder". If single sided, select "Scan one side" and if double sided select "Scan both sides". Press the scan button.
The program will now scan in all of the sheets in your document feeder and produce a single file. You can then e-mail, save or print the document out using the commands on the top bar.

Two property developers have filed a lawsuit against Herriman, alleging the city violated their constitutional rights when developing a plan to assess 35 property owners to pay for a $12 million pipeline and pump to transport water to the city's undeveloped west mountain area.
The Malibu Investment Co. and the Laguna Investment Co. this week filed the lawsuit in 3rd District Court, asking a judge for a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction, which would stop the city from pursuing fees from property owners for the water pump if the judge approves the request.
The companies claim Herriman violated their due process rights under the 14th Amendment and Utah's State Annexation Act with how it formed Special Service Area #2 (SAA), a portion of the city that will be served by the new pipeline.
Rosecrest Communities, a developer, has agreed to pay up to $5 million for a 6 million-gallon water tank to be installed above the Mountain View Corridor.
In 2004, Rosecrest owned by the James L. Sorenson family contacted the plaintiffs in the lawsuit and invited them to participate in the annexation of land from Bluffdale into Herriman, with Rosecrest agreeing to bear the cost of the process, according to the lawsuit.
Rosecrest spent "substantial time" with the city before the annexation and was possibly "given or promised valuable incentives from the city" to disconnect from Bluffdale and annex 4,000 acres into Herriman, the lawsuit says.
Since the annexation, Rosecrest has donated a "considerable amount of real estate to the city," some of which has been planned for or is being used for parks, ponds, Herriman's Town Center, a recreation center and a proposed shooting gun range, the lawsuit states.
The lawsuit claims Herriman had a conflict of interest with Rosecrest on business dealings related to the water pipeline because of the city's prior history with Rosecrest.
The developers allege Herriman's assistant city manager and community development director, Gordon M. Haight II, who was hired in 2007, is a nephew to James L. Sorenson and worked for some of Sorenson's companies, the lawsuit states. Rosecrest has used its influence with the city to get deals to go through, including its relationship with Haight, "who has a glaring conflict of interest," the lawsuit states.
The plaintiffs allege the city overassessed them by nearly $1 million to pay their share for the SAA #2, while Rosecrest unfairly benefited from the plan. Other property owners were also assessed for property that could never be built on because of a city ordinance that prohibits development on property with more than a 30 percent grade, the lawsuit states.
In October, a public hearing was held in Herriman, where property owners weighed in on a proposal for them to pay $5,000 per developable acre to contribute to the water project. A month later, the Herriman City Council approved the assessment plan for the project. The city has offered owners a financing opportunity of a 20-year loan with interest to help them pay their shares. The city will bond to put in the water system and use property owners' land as collateral for the bond, meaning if owners don't pay their assessment cost, they will lose their property.
Attorneys for Herriman declined to comment on the lawsuit, citing pending litigation. The case has been assigned to Judge Paul Maughan.

Bruce Springsteen to offer concert downloads on upcoming tour
Listen to Bruce Springsteen on iHeartRadio
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band fans will get the chance to relive their concert experience as soon as the show is over.
The fan site Backstreets.com says Springsteen will be offering downloads of each performance on his upcoming South African and Australian tours. Fans will reportedly have two options in accessing the material. People can either buy a $40 USB wristband enabling them to download one concert onto their computer, or purchase direct downloads of shows through Springsteen's official Live Nation online store. An MP3 will cost $9.99, while the FLAC format runs $14.99.
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will launch their 2014 tour in Cape Town, South Africa on Sunday, and wrap up their overseas run in Auckland, New Zealand on March 2nd. The group also has one U.S. show booked -- a May 3rd appearance at the New Orleans Jazz Fest. Springsteen hasn't said if he'll be offering downloads of that performance as well.

Dunedin's Smith hurls five no-hit frames
Left-handed reliever baffles Yanks en route to Jays' 3-0 shutout
By Andrew Pentis / Special to MLB.com | April 29, 2012 2:54 PM ET
The Jays' farmhand completed five no-hit innings of relief in Dunedin's 3-0 victory over Tampa. The Class A Advanced Jays are 10-1 at home this season.
"I felt good. I'm kind of surprised on the outing I had today," Smith admitted. "With 'Wojo' pitching, I did not think I was going to get out today."
Smith (4-1) entered the game at the start of the third inning, as Jays' No. 11 prospect Asher Wojciechowski exited early as a precaution. The righty starter was struck in the wrist of his glove hand by Kyle Roller's second-inning liner, but fanned his final two batters before exiting.
"I'm always the long guy for us and 'Wojo' usually goes deep in the game," Smith said. "It's unfortunate that he got knocked out. There's nothing to you can really do a on a comebacker. [After the game,] he just said 'Good job' when I was checking in on his wrist."
Smith picked off JR Murphy, who had reached via a fielding error on third baseman Oliver Dominguez in the fourth, and then rebounding from his walk to Tyson Blaser to start the sixth by retiring his final six batters in order.
"My changeup as usual has always been a real good pitch for me," he said. "My cutter on the inside part of the plate -- I was going away from hitters in the beginning of the game and they started [hovering] over the plate."
The 23-year-old, a seventh-round draftee of Toronto in 2009, also struck out four batters in his seventh and longest outing of the season. He has appeared exclusively out of the bullpen after making 49 of his first 50 career appearances as a starter, including last year. Smith won half of his 14 decisions and compiled a 3.84 ERA at Class A Lansing, establishing career highs in starts (24), innings (117 1/3) and strikeouts (95).
"I just want to keep going at it as I have been," Smith said. "I have to get ready faster. I don't have that luxury that I had as a starter, having plenty of time to get ready to pitch. Whatever the Blue Jays got planned for me, I'm not hurting from it. I just want to keep being consistent out the 'pen, help out any way I can."
Replacing Smith on the mound, reliever Scott Gracey struck out the side in the eighth, but closer Danny Barnes allowed singles to Jose Mojica and Ramon Flores -- the Yanks' first base knocks since the second batter of the game. Barnes still earned his ninth save.
The Jays scored a run in the third, fourth and fifth frames. No. 8 and 9 hitters Jack Murphy and Ryan Schimpf struck solo home runs against Yankees starter Jose A. Ramirez.
Shortstop Kevin Nolan also doubled home Dominguez and went 2-for-4 one day after he and third-ranked Jays prospect Jake Marisnick went deep.
"We've got a real solid lineup," Smith said. "The pitcher doesn't have any breaks against our guys. It's a nice lineup to have on your back."
Ramirez (1-4) was charged with all three runs on seven hits over his seven innings of work. He struck out four.

Matthew Williamson Spring 2013
It's been fifteen years since Matthew Williamson presented his debut Electric Angels collection in a tiny hall on London's Ladbroke Grove. "I still have people today telling me how much they loved that one," said Williamson. "It's funny because we didn't have the first clue about how to put on a show. I remember turning to my business partner Joe when he told me we didn't have enough money for chairs and saying, 'Well the audience will just have to stand.' " The designer has come a long way since then, and it was standing room–only on the eighth floor of the skyscraper on Cannon Place.
Williamson circled back to his early years for inspiration, looking to India for the palette and embellishment. "I wanted to reflect that feeling, but not in an obvious way," he said. He sought the help of New York–based artist Shane McAdams to reconfigure those Eastern influences. Tinged with shades of fuchsia and turquoise, the bleeding blossoms on a pair of cigarette pants recalled the hot-and-cold color combos of Williamson's first offering. McAdams's inky ballpoint snowscapes were recast as a tropical mountain range that appeared across the silk shirtdress worn by Cara Delevingne. Her sister Poppy was in the audience with a bevy of other It girls including British-born drummer Tennessee Thomas, recalling the days when Kate Moss and Jade Jagger would wear his signature kaleidoscopic looks. And while the clothes came dripping in trademark ornamental trimmings, Williamson shed the free-spirited riotous abandon of seasons past, and blazers embroidered with mirrors and pompoms had a grown-up ethnic-for-the-office vibe. Granted, an archive as extensive as his is worth revisiting, but in this attempt to recapture a moment, Williamson didn't entirely connect with today's cool front-rowers.

grow love...I have seen these scroll type projects in the past and have attempted to make one today. Used Pink Persimmon stamps to spell out "plant kindness grow love", hand stitched on beads, felt and buttons and wrapped it all up on this little wooden spool. Added the shabby chic flower to the top and a little razzle dazzle with beads and glitter. Created a gift bag to match using Creations by AR "bag it" template, which by the way is super easy to cut and assemble. Topped the bag with ribbon by Prairie Bird Boutique and filled it with a frayed piece of burlap.
It was great to see such a great turn out for the blog hop and so many wonderful comments from the Paper Fashions Etc. post yesterday. Don't forget you have until tomorrow evening to enter my giveaway below. Also, I will be listing many new items in my Etsy shop tomorrow evening. Will be working on tags, cards, and flower embellishments today. Will begin making shabby chic flowers as shown above as well. Hope you have a great Friday!

I have a gallery that I got from Code Canyon which works well. But when inserting it into another div layer it stops working. I see the javascript code in the header points to .container, but since its also inside another div not sure if something needs to be changed. Could I get some help on this small issue? thanks.
Which is the new div, and why are you adding it?
I see the javascript code in the header points to .container
Where's that? I don't see it.
The new div it is in is .conatainer #homeBanner - This is how I have my site laid out.
It's in the header Under the javascript.

and then a little further down this:

So, two versions of jQuery. Just use one, and put it up above any other jQuery code.
Oh ok I see that now. So I can use the latest one and they both would work? I was under the impression you needed to use the library that the script was written for. I have another slideshow as you can see in the third grey box. That's what the other one is for. So just delete it and use one?
Also here is the gallery working in the page I got it from Codecanyon,
jQuery Banner Rotator
See it works here. I copied and pasted everything I needed.
Generally yes, it should be fine to update to the latest script. Normally it's backward compatible—at least in my experience, although I've seen a minor break once.
After going back through and trouble shooting it looks like I figured it out. Working fine, now just need to customize it. Thanks for your help.
Great, glad it's on the way. Not sure if you've come to this yet, but the social buttons on the right are a bit messed up at this stage. See screen shot.
What browser are you on? I was making changes just now. Could you try taking another look?
On a Mac, and it's the same in all browsers. It was like that before—just didn't want to distract you. I'd prefer a CSS solution, but an easy fix is to add a
:
GET SOCIAL UPDATES FROM SIA

EDIT: sorry, not true: not all browsers, but I first noticed in in Firefox.
I was going to use that temp. What would be a proper css way to do that? If you don't mind when you have a chance could you show me?
 will work for now. But it's weird I don't see that on a PC in any browser, IE, Firefox, Chrome...
Browsers each render text a bit differently, so you can't rely on with width of the text to push those images down. I guess there's nothing really wrong with the

Before you even mentioned it I did

 too much. Seem to work now?

Independiente always pride themselves on playing hard-working, stylish players. This explains why a young Sergio Aguero graced their soccer jersey for a while. Evidently he was too big of a player to stick around in Argentina, which is a problem. He left for Atletico Madrid and then Manchester City, and he's considered one of the best forwards in the game, and it's all thanks to the start that Independiente gave him.

Plastic corners
By Auntie M
from Dover Foxcroft, ME
Comments about BJs Wholesale Club Honey-Can-Do 5-Tier 800-lb. Storage Shelves - Black:
I bought the narrow unit with 800 lb shelves because I need a place for 24 batteries used for excess solar electricity storage. Four 106 lb batteries per shelf WAS the plan. Two problems. Plastic corner pieces slip and shelves began to bend under the weight. I will keep and use for other lighter weight items but ended up building battery shelves out of wood. Cost less for the materials and holds the weight. The main problem with this product is the plastic corner pieces. Advertised as METAL. Why is such a key component made out of PLASTIC???
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great Piece of Shelving
By Shuckie
from Boston, MA
About Me Homeowner
I bought 5 of these for my basement. They are very sturdy, hold a large amount and are relatively easy to install. It makes a huge difference having 'stuff' on shelves as opposed to strewn all over the floor. The basement looks so much better.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Easy to assemble.
By Pnatz
from Massachusetts
I bought this for use in our home and am very pleased with the way it looks. It was very, very easy to assemble. No tools required and really only a quick glance at the directions was necessary. It is a very sturdy shelving unit. The black finish is very nice and polished looking. I also liked that there wasn't an overwhelming amount of packing material. It was all easy to dispose of in the weekly recycling. A great price for a high quality shelving unit!
Fits our needs perfectly!
By WIA
from MA
Compared to other shelves we have purchased, dollar for dollar, this set is great. We are using the shelves for basement storage for items used on a regular basis (e.g. paper goods, cleaning items, canned goodsa) that we tend to stock up on. We like the fact that you can view all items on the shelves, because the shelves are wire. No reason to ever run out of any stored item!

A Lady's Life in the Rocky Mountains
Kessinger Publishing, Jul 1, 2004 - Travel - 324 pages
1881. With illustrations. Isabella Lucy Bird broke away from the traditions of the middle-class woman in Victorian Britain and established herself as a determined and intelligent traveler. Through her accounts of her travel adventures she challenged and delighted a wide and appreciative audience. Her travel books made her one of the most famous women in late-Victorian Britain. In the course of her travels, Bird landed in San Francisco and traveled to Colorado where she had her romantic adventure with the desperado Jim Nugent. For months in the high Rockies, in and around Estes Park, as autumn turned to winter, Isabella was beguiled not only by the wild Rocky Mountains but also by the charms of Mountain Jim who took her on expeditions and encouraged her boldness. With Jim's assistance she became the second woman to climb Long's Peak, a mountain of over 14,000 feet. This delightful volume recounts her adventures in the Rockies.

A pale blue natural aquamarine of an estimated .85 carats makes its presence known in a artful ring of 14k yellow gold. Art Deco styling offers a horizontal profile for the rectangular and faceted gem. The interior edges of the gold bezel sport incised diagonal slashes all along the perimeter. The encased stone is raised up on a lintel-like platform with an ornate design appointing the borders. An open work form in the shape of a half moon strikes a balance with a cruciform element accessing the negative space. An intricate series of engravings appoints the under gallery and sides of the shank.

International Millennium Event Celebrates Children's Diversity, Hopes for the 21st Century
December 31, 1999
Contacts: Viki Reath (202) 439-1398
Tom Gorman (202) 276-9091
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- President Clinton will address the Washington international community - families with their children - at a special Millennium Around the World event that celebrates the children of today - the world's future leaders - at the International Trade Center in the Ronald Reagan Building today.
The morning program features seven area groups, made up of children from seven foreign countries, Mexico to Moldava, Bolivia, Cambodia, Guinea and Japan, who will perform songs and dances from their native lands in the amphitheatre for two-and-a-half hours.
Outside the amphitheatre, children will create a 210-square-foot Millennium Tapestry, led by a professional artist, as they weave their imaginings for the future. Special Millennium photography and art exhibits from the World Bank and the International Child Art Foundation also are on display all day for invited guests attending the morning and afternoon events. The World Bank exhibit will be open to the public Jan. 1 through Jan. 6.
The morning program at the International Trade Center is part of the daylong, invitation-only party, which also includes remarks in the afternoon by six children - messengers carrying their hopes for peace to President and Mrs. Clinton and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who also will speak. For information on coverage of the presidential event, call the White House Press Office, (202) 456-2580.
The six children are:
Mohammad Shakhawat Ali, an 11-year-old boy from Bangladesh who received a President's Award for Educational Excellence in recognition of his outstanding achievement as a sixth-grader at Herbert Hoover Middle School, Potomac, Md.;
Groda Soeprapto, a 14-year-old boy from Indonesia, who also received a President's Award, along with a Prince George's County Excellence Award, and is a 10th-grader at Suitland (Md.) High School;
Deena El-Rashed, a nine-year-old girl from Jordan, who speaks four languages and is a fourth-grader at Great Falls (Va.) Elementary School;
Juan Manuel Saldivar Martinez, an 11-year-old boy from Mexico, is a violinist and soccer player, a fifth-grader at Corpus Christi School in Falls Church, Va.;
Nosa Garrick, a 15-year-old girl from Nigeria, who is a member of the French National Honor Societyand is a 10th-grader at St. John's College High School, Washington, D.C., and
Thomas Moravek, a 14-year-old boy from the Slovak Republic, who plays tennis, piano and guitar, and is a student at Hardy Middle School in Washington, D.C.
Millennium Around the World was organized by the U.S. General Services Administration and America's Millennium, a program launched by the White House Millennium Council, the Smithsonian Institution, the National Park Service and the National Park Foundation
Following are more detailed descriptions of the events:
Weaving Project
Children will create "beauty and peace on earth," by weaving the People Loom/Millennium Tapestry #2, guided by artist Carol Kapuza of the People Loom Project in Los Angeles. The tapestry project reflects a "future safe for all people," according to Marcie Polier, head of the Marcie Polier Family Foundation of Los Angeles, a tapestry project cosponsor.
"As the children of the international community cooperate to create this beautiful work of art, we are reminded that the global problems facing us in the new millennium can be resolved with the spirit of cooperation and peaceful coexistence," said Polier, whose foundation is dedicated to global change, primarily through education.
The Millennium Tapestry project also is cosponsored by the Coexistence and Community Building Initiative, whose representative, Susan Collin Marks, is executive vice president of Search for Common Ground, a private, nonprofit organization in Washington, D.C., devoted to resolving conflicts. A third tapestry project cosponsor is The Alan B. Slifka Foundation of New York City, a backer of coexistence projects, including Search for Common Ground.
Music and Dance Performances
Children from Bolivia, Cambodia, Guinea, India, Japan, Mexico and Moldova will sing and dance in Amphiteatre performances by the New Millennium Choir; Bolivian Soul; the Dance Troupe of Cambodian American Heritage, Inc.; Kono Youth Ensemble; Modova Choreograph Lyceum; Shizumi's KODOMO Dance Troupe; Susheelam, and Los Quetzales/In Quetzalli Mexican Dance Ensemble.
The World Bank will mount its Culture and Development at the Millennium exhibit of nearly 200 photographs from around the world, reflecting development as a tree that nurtures growth "by feeding its roots, not by pulling on its branches," said Ismail Serageldin, World Bank vice president.
The International Child Art Foundation, an independent, nonprofit organization with headquarters in Washington, D.C., will exhibit art works created by children, ages 8-12, from 86 countries, along with its 16-foot by 24-foot World 2000 Mural, created by child artists from 50 countries.
World Sensorium, a sculpture created by Gayil Nalls, represents distinctive tree, plant and herb scents from every world country - which she has visited over the past five years, will be presented during the Millennium Around the World festivities. The individual scents, "distinctive aromas critical to each country's cultural memory," have been combined according to a mathematical formula based on each country's projected population in the year 2000, as a percentage of the projected world millennium population in the year 2000.
