About Decisive Campaigns: The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris
Decisive Campaigns: The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris is the first in an innovative series of operational World War II wargames that also include a strategic element. The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris simulates Germanys military successes in Poland and France in 1939 and 1940 (including also a hypothetical Sea Lion invasion of Great Britain if you do well enough).
Well researched and packed with depth, including detailed unit data down to the squad and vehicle level and historically realistic combined arms gameplay, The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris also features an easy-to-learn interface and a ferocious AI. Before each campaign, players choose actions and options at a strategic level which can have far-reaching effects on how the actual battle unfolds, with many plausible hypothetical outcomes.
Once in the battle, players move regiments and divisions, coordinate attacks and manage logistics in what we feel is the definitive game on the campaigns of the early Blitzkrieg. There are also unique actions for individual historical generals to give a particular objective or front the extra needed push to victory. Decisive Campaigns: The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris also includes a unique multiplayer feature where players can split up Axis or Allied armies between several people to add an added level of realism and cooperation!
About Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue
Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue is the second title in the critically-acclaimed Decisive Campaigns series, with tons of new features and set on the epic canvas of the Eastern Front in 1942. Produced and developed by a dedicated and expert team of professionals, Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue comes packed with deep gameplay, detailed unit data and rich historical scenarios based on extensive research. Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue sets a new standard and is sure to excite and entice any operational strategy game fan!
It is the summer of 1942 on the Eastern Front, and Case Blue is about to begin. The German Wehrmacht must continue their drive to Stalingrad and into the Caucasus in order to secure victory against the Soviet Army. As time passes and the battles rage on, winter arrives and with it the Soviet winter counter-offensive dashes hopes of a speedy victory for the Wehrmacht.
Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue features an easy-to-learn interface and a challenging AI for all levels of players. Among the many new features for the Decisive Campaigns series is the optional high command order system, which puts you in the position of the historical commander, with often difficult and unrealistic goals assigned by your superiors. Succeed and you may be able to guide the future strategy of the campaign fail and you may find yourself removed from command or facing a firing squad!
The new full campaign scenarios cover a remarkable sweep of history, including the full Case Blue campaign with all of its many historical options. The order of battle may change based on your performance and the entire direction of the campaign is even within your reach if you do well enough. Whether you start in the summer of 1942 or take control as Operation Uranus begins, there are virtually endless what ifs in each of these remarkably detailed campaigns.
With three large campaign scenarios, additional smaller scenarios, and a 1st Panzer Army linked scenario campaign, along with a full scenario editor, Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue is sure to delight operational wargamers and fans of the Eastern Front. Dont forget to take the battles online through the exceptional PBEM++ system, which makes finding opponents a breeze!

A bioscan was a process in which an organism's biological structure – both external and internal – was scanned, normally for medical purposes.
A starship scanned the crew of Enterprise NX-01 via a submolecular bioscan in 2151 for useful compounds in their lymphatic systems. (ENT: "Fight or Flight")
A bioscan of Nadet by Phlox the same year revealed that she was ill with lung cancer. (ENT: "Terra Nova")
While aboard the ECS Fortunate, also in 2151, a bioscan conducted by T'Pol using a scanner picked up a Nausicaan life sign aboard the freighter. The bioscan was able to determine that the Nausicaan was also injured. (ENT: "Fortunate Son")
Doctor Beverly Crusher performed several bioscans on Susanna Leijten and Geordi La Forge when they were affected by the Tarchannen III species in 2367. Each scan proved inconclusive and no infections were detected. A short time later however, both were transformed by the disease into Tachannen III lifeforms. (TNG: "Identity Crisis")
Doctor Crusher ran a bioscan on Berlinghoff Rasmussen to verify his identity in 2368. The readings indicated that he was perfectly Human. (TNG: "A Matter of Time")
Geordi La Forge checked the bioscans of himself, Captain Picard, and Deanna Troi in 2369 after Troi told the others about her unusual experience seeing the others "frozen in time". (TNG: "Timescape")
Captain Kathryn Janeway ordered full bioscans on Harry Kim and Derran Tal in 2375 after Kim began exhibiting symptoms of olan'vora in 2375. (VOY: "The Disease")

In the following excerpt, Simmons discusses the mother's voice in "Girl," which she likens to a manipulative "chant."
Kincaid's "Girl" may be read as a kind of primer in the manipulative art of rhythm and repetition. The story begins with the mother's voice giving such simple, benevolent, and appropriately maternal advice as "Wash the white clothes on Monday and put them on the stone heap; wash the color clothes on Tuesday and put them on the clothesline to dry." Like the girl to whom the mother speaks, the reader is lulled and drawn in by the chant of motherly admonitions, which go on to advise about how to dress for the hot sun, how to cook pumpkin fritters, how to buy cloth for a blouse, and how to prepare fish. Seduced in only a few lines, readers, like the listening girl, are caught unaware by an admonition...

Carrie Underwood and "True Blood's" Stephen Moyer are bringing to life the classic musical "The Sound of Music" in a live broadcast set to air on NBC on Dec. 5. In anticipation of the stage production, an extended trailer has been released that shows snippets from rehearsals.
In the video, Underwood and Moyer perform classics like "My Favorite Things," "Do Re Mi" and "Maria." They also discuss the difficult task of bringing to life this story with only one shot to get it right. But, if they do, Underwood hopes that this is a version of "The Sound of Music" for a whole new generation.
The original musical "The Sound of Music" was released in 1959 with the music done by Richard Rodgers and the lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. The film version, which starred Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, was later released in 1965. Are you looking forward to this new version of the classic?


text: Medical Definition of GlutamineGlutamine: An amino acid, one of the 20 building blocks of protein. Glutamine is present in plant and animal proteins. It can be synthesized by the body and is therefore not essential to the diet. Glutamine serves as an important carrier of ammonia and contributes it to the formation of urea and purines (which are essential to make DNA and RNA). Glutamine is broken down in the kidney. It was isolated in 1833 from beet juice but not synthesized until 1933. Symbol: Gln.

LaneHawk LH4000 Overview Downloads Info Request LaneHawk™ LH4000 Solution LaneHawk™ LH4000 is a loss prevention solution that turns the bottom-of-the-basket (BOB) into profits in real-time. The LaneHawk LH4000 unit detects and recognizes items as part of the transaction, making sure stores get paid for their BOB items. The LaneHawk LH4000 unit reduces shrink, increases revenue and is designed to pay for itself in less than 12 months. A smart camera is flush-mounted in the checkout lane at foot level, continuously watching for items on the bottom of shopping carts. Using Visual Pattern Recognition (ViPR™) software, the camera is able to detect and recognize items that pass by the camera and then send the UPC information directly to the POS. At tender time, the cashier verifies the items that were found under the basket, scans those items and then finalizes the transaction. ViPR™ Software A database of high resolution images (called a modelset) is created containing the product packaging of common BOB items. ViPR extracts key points (feature points) from these images that create a unique identifying pattern for each UPC, similar to a fingerprint. When a product passes the LaneHawk LH4000 unit, an image is captured of the product and the ViPR software is used to extract feature points from that image. The ViPR software is then able to identify the product by matching the pattern of feature points in the image to the patterns of feature points stored in the modelset. These computations are streamlined to produce results in a fraction of a second, which allows the recognition to happen in real-time. Advantages Reduced Shrink and Rapid ROI: Helps boost profits per lane (per day) by up to 10%, leading to a quick return on investment (ROI) of less than 12 months. Integration with Your POS System in Real-time: No other BOB solution is able to recognize a BOB item and then automatically send the item description and UPC information directly to the POS. Flexible, Cost-effective Scalability: The LaneHawk LH4000 loss prevention unit leverages open, industry- standard technologies to allow you to easily incorporate next-generation retail technologies into your store infrastructure. Training of Cashiers: LaneHawk LH4000 unit requires minimal cashier training and operates within the transaction workflow. The cashier is not interrupted until he/she is ready to process the BOB items. Productivity is enhanced and BOB items cannot be ignored.

August 19 2010, 9:44 AM
Big Media wonders why there's been so little news reported about Ken Buck's position on abortion.
Earlier this month, the Republican Weld County prosecutor running for U.S. Senate elaborated on his stance in detail on KHOW radio, telling host Craig Silverman he is against the procedure even if the pregnancy is the result of a violent assault.
Asked if he would create a law to prohibit abortion in cases of rape or incest, Buck replied, "I would favor that position in law. Yes."
Buck, who also says marriage should be an institution reserved solely for a man and a woman, recently reaped the endorsement of the Family Research Council Action political-action committee, which hopes to see Democratic Senator Michael Bennet ousted.
"I cannot emphasize enough how important it is that we send those who respect faith, family, and freedom to the United States Congress," Tony Perkins, the president of the FRCA, tells LifeNews.com. "Ken Buck has proven that he is that man."
The big question is whether Buck's position will help or hurt his campaign. The Washington Post's Greg Sargent opines that Buck's stance is "another mark of the Tea Party's influence on GOP primaries, and of the challenges national Republicans face as Tea Party-backed candidates head into general elections."

Costa Rica - Pura Vida
Trip Start
Mar 21, 2007
Trip End
Dec 23, 2008
Lenny & Catherine, another couple of Irish rat-race escapees, who we first met in Grenada showed up in San Juan so a debaucherous night of copious amounts of Nicaraguan rum ensued, finished off of course by a swim at 4am. Needless to say the appeal of doing the border crossing to Costa Rica the next morning got postponed another day as we nursed a very nasty hangover.
So we eventually packed our bags again and headed for the border after a brief enchanting encounter with Nicaragua. It�s definitely a country of people who have been through an awful lot and now with their new president, Ortega, chumming up with Chavez and Cuba, Nicas are quite afraid that all the Americans looking for a better bargain than they can find in Costa Rica will look elsewhere to spend their dollars. I have no doubt that if I went back to San Juan del Sur in three years time it would be completely different.
Leaving the dry, parched Nicaraguan soil the lushness of Costa Rica which literally changes as you cross the border was a sensual treat. As green as any Irish landscape, albeit slightly more tropical, it was gorgeous to see the land dripping with life. A week later and about 32 inches of rain, my appetite for rain has changed slightly. So Costa Rica is the most expensive country we�ve been in so far because they�ve managed to attract tourists for a lot longer than their more turbulent Central American neighbours. Is it worth it? Maybe, if all I was to see of Central America was Costa Rica, I would be pretty impressed but considering what I�ve already seen it�s not as an amazing experience as I thought it would be.
We headed straight for the Nicoya peninsula to look for more surf (nope, still didn�t make that barrel) and after a couple of nights in a relatively commercial Tamarindo (Cancun it ain�t, but wasn�t in a rush to stay either) we headed south to Mal Pa�s. Despite being Central America�s most expensive country, it officially has the worst roads. One 30km trip we had to make took over 2 hours, seriously!!
En route we hooked up with Scott & Alex, a Canadian couple from British Columbia, who we had lots of giggles with for the last week. The weather turned in to the equivalent of a month of Irish rain each night, so we had to get pretty creative with our leisure time. (Apologies for those of you who have busy, stressful lives at the mo, I feel your pain!) We stayed in this huge hostel in Santa Teresa, where for the first time in about two months we could flush toilet paper and have a hot shower. It�s the little things you miss sometimes.
In between surfing some gnarly (cheers Scott!) waves, we rented ATV�s and took off for a hilarious day to Montezuma. Needless to say the boys need for speed and the dodgy roads were an entertaining combination. We hiked up a river to some beautiful waterfalls and then bumped in to Lenny & Catherine again in Montezuma.
So we hooked up with them again the next day (Champions League is very important on a round the world trip) and had a very productive afternoon of drinking beer, learning to juggle (Dave), learning new card games (Geneva) and giggling.

BP Comment Quick Links
December 7, 2009 Future ShockTwins Top 11 Prospects
Five-Star Prospects Four More: 12. Jeff Manship, RHP: This heady pitcher's skill set works better in long relief.13. Tyler Robertson, LHP: A command-and-control lefty, he succeeds more on guile than stuff. 14. Adrian Salcedo, RHP: The Dominican product is long in size, command, and projection. 15. Rene Tosoni, OF: Hailing from Canada, Tosoni showed surprising pop in '09, but he profiles best as a fourth outfielder.
1. Aaron Hicks, CF
Year in Review: Hicks was their top pick in 2008, but was held back in extended spring training; scouts fell in love with him despite mediocre numbers.
2. Miguel Jean (Sano), SS
Year in Review: He was the best player on the international talent market, but he took his time to sign and surprised many by going to Minnesota for a $3.15 million bonus.
3. Ben Revere, OF
Year in Review: The Twins' top prospect coming into the year, Revere had a perfectly fine season at High-A, but it was without the growth some expected.
4. Wilson Ramos, C
Year in Review: A broken finger and hamstring issues led to an injury-plagued 2009, but the Venezuelan catcher played well when healthy, and he really turned it on in Venezuela over the winter.
5. Kyle Gibson, RHP
Year in Review: One of the top college pitchers in the draft, Gibson had a late-season slide, and a pre-draft physical revealed a stress fracture in his forearm, dropping him to the second half of the first round.
6. Angel Morales, OF
Year in Review: This toolsy outfielder got off to a slow start at Low-A Beloit, but he was among the Midwest League's best hitters in the second half, batting .317/.372/.533 after the All-Star break.
7. David Bromberg, RHP
Year in Review: The big, beefy righty made it three-for-three, as he's now led the Appalachian, Midwest, and Florida State League in strikeouts over the last three years.
8. Carlos Gutierrez, RHP
Year in Review: Gutierrez is a ground-ball specialist who was the talk of the Florida State League early in the year, but he collapsed following a promotion to Double-A
9. Danny Valencia, 3B
Year in Review: Drafted originally as an organizational player, Valencia did enough at the upper levels to stake his claim on Minnesota's third-base job in the near future.
10. Joe Benson, OF
Year in Review: The athletic outfielder showed great strides when he was healthy.
11. Billy Bullock, RHP
Year in Review: Seen as a minor prospect entering the spring, Bullock exploded in a relief role, and he continued to miss bats in his pro debut. The Sleeper: Nobody throws more downhill that seven-foot-one Dutch lefty Loek Van Mil, who made a successful return from Tommy John surgery and could reach the big leagues as a middle reliever by the end of the year.
Top 10 Talents 25 And Under (Born 4/1/84 or later) I know I'm going way out on a limb here, but I believe that the Delmon Young we saw over the final two months of the year will be the Delmon Young we see for all of 2010-a .300 hitter with power, and a future star. Slowey is the ultimate finesse pitcher, and he should reach his ceiling as a third starter. Swarzak has been inconsistent for two years, but he still has the frame and ability to eat up innings. In Casilla's case, the Game 163 hero has been given plenty of chances at second base with few results; scouts always think he should be better, and so do the Twins, who will give him another shot next year. Mijares is a very good situational lefty, but that's also where his ceiling ends. Summary: The Twins have a long history of creating winning teams with a small budget through scouting and player development, and this year's squad is no different. It's interesting to note the dichotomous philosophy however, as on the mound, they focus on command and control, while with position players, nearly everything is a high-upside tools bet. Next up: the New York Yankees.

Dabangg crashes all box office records
As predicted earlier, Salman Khan has superseded Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan at box office collections with his film 'Dabangg', which has raked in a whooping amount of approx Rs. 48 crore in its opening weekend, becoming the biggest box office opening ever.
Previously, Aamir's '3 Idiots' was placed at the first spot with Rs. 41 crore-earning in the opening weekend. Now, the shares of Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision – the co-producers of the film – surged 10 percent at the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
The other biggest earners at the opening weekends are 'Rajneeti', 'My Name Is Khan', 'Housefull' and 'Ghajni'.

NASCAR adding template for C-post at 'Dega
April 13, 2012, David Caraviello, NASCAR.com
FORT WORTH, Texas -- The part of the race car that led to a protracted battle between NASCAR and Hendrick Motorsports' No. 48 team this season will no longer be subject to just an eyeball inspection. NASCAR will expand its template to include the C-post area beginning with the event at Talladega Superspeedway in two weeks. The C-posts, the pillars that connect the car's roof to its rear deck lid, were deemed to be illegally modified on Jimmie Johnson's car in inspection prior to the Daytona 500. NASCAR initially suspended crew chief Chad Knaus for six races and docked Johnson 25 points, although those penalties were eventually overturned after a series of appeals. "I'm very happy to hear there will not be a gray area there, but it does take away opportunities to work on the race car," Johnson said Friday at Texas Motor Speedway, site of Saturday night's Sprint Cup event. "But that's been a reality we've been faced with -- especially crew chiefs have been faced with -- for quite some time now. But I'm absolutely happy to hear that there's going to be one there." Previously, the C-post had been suspect to only a visual inspection. Beginning at Talladega, the template used to examine each vehicle will be expanded to include the sheet metal of the C-post area. At Daytona, inspectors deemed that the C-posts on the No. 48 car had been modified illegally to enhance aerodynamic performance, something that is explicitly forbidden by the series rule book. Hendrick Motorsports disagreed, claiming the same car with the same C-posts had passed inspection at restrictor-plate tracks before. The NASCAR penalties were originally upheld by a three-member group from the National Stock Car Appeals Panel. Hendrick made a final plea to Chief Appeals Officer John Middlebrook, who rescinded everything but a $100,000 fine handed down to Knaus.

Nu Skin is a leading direct sales company founded in 1984, with operations in 53 markets worldwide. The company develops and distributes anti-aging personal care products and nutritional supplements under the Nu Skin and Pharmanex category brands and, more recently, both product ranges under the ageLOC anti-aging brand. The company operates globally with approximately 89% of 2012 revenue came from outside of the United States.
Revenues have grown strongly and consistently as the company has benefited from numerous demographic and economic tailwinds. Namely people are growing old, obesity is increasing, women are earning more money and Asian economies are expanding rapidly. Additionally Nu Skin has successfully managed and revised its product range with a pipeline of innovative products and regular relaunches that have kept the company fresh and appealing to consumers as well as distributors who are essential for a direct sales company.
Last week the company announced second quarter results with earnings growth of 29.8% as revenue grew 15% to $682.9 million reflecting healthy trends throughout the global business. In Greater China, second-quarter revenue increased 35% to $269.1 million. North Asian revenues grew 12% to $196.8 million. Revenue in the Americas improved 17% to $84.3 million.
Looking forward, the company raised annual sales guidance by $90 million to $2.91 to $2.95 billion and now expect earnings per share to be $5.05 to $5.15. The increase reflects the significant growth already achieved in the first half and the expectation that the upcoming launch of ageLOC TR90 and the strength of the business in several key markets will lead to another record year as annual revenue.
Consensus earnings forecasts on Yahoo Finance point to the sames with annual growth averaging 22.7% being predicted for the next five years.

Hemophilia and Inherited Bleeding Disorders |
VonWillebrands03/16/2006 |
Should people with VonWillebrands get tatto`s? What is the risk factor for bleeding?
People with mild Von Willebrand's Disease (vWD) usually do not have abnormal bleeding from getting tattoos. Those with severe vWD would be at higher risk for bleeding with this procedure. There is a risk, however, for getting viruses such has hepatitis or HIV from getting tattoos. The equipment used to do the tattoos must be properly sterilized to prevent spreading viruses.

Powerful, Provides Energy, Sex Drive
I have been taking a variety of dietary supplements, including vitamins, minerals, and herbs, for more than 25 years. This is one of the most powerful. In the potency of its effects, it is almost more like a pharmaceutical. I have found cordyceps to be an aphrodisiac. It increases my sex drive, my energy level, and my overall sense of well-being. After going off of it for three or four days, I feel as though my very life energy has drained away, and I become depressed. The Planetary Herbals brand is also good, but Doctor's Best seems to be especially potent. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, cordyceps is a kidney tonic. Indeed, it increases the frequency of my urination.

I like all the Doctor's Best products and this is an excellent, reasonably priced product. If you are looking for Cordyceps, this is the place to start. ***Want to find out how to save money, click "YES" and see MORE useful info by CLICKING ON MY NAME.* Have used this for several years, as an alternative to my Chinese TCM Doctor's own brand. This is much cheaper and works just as well. I'm not sure the Plus does anything special as I already take Ginko Biloba separately. I have compromised Kidney-function, low Thyroid etc and I can only say that Cordyceps has proved invaluable in boosting my immune system for more than ten years. **If you find my review useful, click "YES" and see more useful info by clicking on my name.**

Dear Java Developers,
I am currently researching how Java EE6 Security can secure our applications using GlassFish. I know how to make realms, roles and users.
I managed to get a nice basic login with a servlet. 'Normal'users were not allowed to see an admin page, while an admin user was,
so that test worked out nicely.
Now however, I want to step a little bit deeper into it.
The idea is that I host a webservice using an EJB container.
This webservice does not know anything about it's callers so I figured the caller has to send credentials (username and password) along with the call.
The webservice could then authenticate the user and could then, based on this, allow or deny access to methods.
The thing is, that I have no clue on how to check 2 strings (username and password) and set up a role for the callers within the webservice.
I know this API should help me out:
EJBContext (Java 2 Platform Ent. Ed. v1.4)
But it doesn't give me a clear understanding on how to do this. All it says to me is that I can check certain properties when the user is already in a role,
but since it's a webservice, there is no role yet... I have to create it first, but how?
Also, I know that GlassFish supports sign on through LDAP, which is the end goal I am working towards. Perhaps any ideas on how to do that correctly?
What would be the best way to approach this all?
Thanks in advance,

Comments about Citrus Sugar Body Polish - 8 oz:
I love the herbal citrus smell of this product. It would get 5 stars from me if the amount was larger. I have used this twice and I have about a 3rd left. It is an affective scrub and helps a lot with my ichy skin with coupled with cocca butter. But, for the money there should be more than 3 or 4 full body applications in the jar.

I use this product 2-3 times a week in the shower and cannot believe how smooth and soft my skin feels afterwards! Feels like a little massage while applying it, and leaving the skin so refreshed after. The smell is really nice too!

I love this scrub. It took care of my super dry, itchy skin during pregnancy and great after baby to help skin rebound. I still use it daily. Thick and creamy with oils in it. Smells unbelieveably good.

This scrub is great! It turns from a scrub into a lather. It makes my whole shower smell wonderful. It does not leave my skin feeling dry like scrubs I have used in the past. I always recommend this scrub to friends.

It's Friday!
Friday the 13th to be exact and if that's not enough to excite you, well, then look forward to Valentine's Day - an opportunity to reframe a pink and red heteronormative day.
Here's my Valentine's gift to viewers and readers: a writing prompt; a digital collage to reflect upon a very simple question that I always love revisiting: What influences and informs your feminism?
Happy writing!

Friday the 13th and Feminism
LA Slugocki replied on
I grew up with a wise woman, my grandmother. I saw the power she had in her home. The herbs she cooked up, the ghosts she saw, her strength. But I also saw other images of women in films and on television. These women were not strong. They were were ditzy. They catered to their man. They only cared about the fairy-tale wedding and the perfect dress. My mother said boys don't like girls who are too smart. But I didn't care. I've been trying to reconcile these disparate views of women my entire life.
I like writers like Angela Carter who rewrite fairty tales into exotic and erotic fables with strong female protagonists. I'm entranced with writers like her who attempt to revise the female narrative. Offer another plot. In the 1970's, in a small town in Wisconsin, I was only offered one, the wedding day. See above. I read Margaret Atwood, Mary Gaitskill and Anne Enright. And then I enjoy reading the feminist theory that unravels the difference between the two narratives; male and female. Women like Gayle Green, Thelma Shinn, Annis Pratt.
I watch The Girls Next Door. They're like the Barbie dolls I had as a little girl, but they talk and they walk. They're so playing Hugh Hefner. They're so playing him and he so knows it, but doesn't care. I think they're aware of the bimbo stereotype and work it. I also like Sex and the City. I shouldn't care that Carrie finally gets her man, but I do. So I embrace the paradoxical nature of my feminism. I've posed naked and loved it. My legs and my tits and my ass are in the permanent collection at MOMA.
I also like to rewrite fairy tales and myth--- with a strong dose of female eroticism. The latest is called The Hotel St. George, 1890, a revision of the Blue Beard story. It's out now in Do Not Disturb: Hotel Sex Stories, Cleis Press. I would like to find out why, for some women, feminism is the "f" word. I have two sisters who do not call themselves feminists. Yet they are strong and intelligent. Self-aware. I don't understand this paradox either, but I embrace it anyway.

Catholic Mobilizing Network and other faith-based organizations bring a very potent force to all of their ministry efforts: prayer. Particularly in the Catholic tradition, both personal and common liturgical prayer is a spiritual source of strength for living out the pro-life commitment to which the Gospel of Jesus Christ calls us. Our prayer is often a source of strength for others as well, particularly as we pray for those to be executed, their families, the vicitms and the victim's families.

As a World War II era warplane flies 76ft. over his head, director Martin Scorsese looks up with a smile. No, he's not on the outdoor set of his hit film, The Aviator. In fact, the plane he's watching is from Anthony Minghella's 1996 feature, The English Patient, and Scorsese is sitting comfortably in his seat at Hollywood's Kodak Theatre. The 77th Annual Academy Awards have just begun. Every year, production designer Roy Christopher is challenged to come up with a set design that tops the ...

Shane Moskowitz has hit on a unique strategy for this cross country season.
That's what the senior All-American from Central Kitsap of Silverdale has planned, and so far it seems like a solid strategy.
Moskowitz, who committed to Oklahoma State last month, was the Class 4A state runner-up last year.
"I talked to him after state (last year)," said Central Kitsap coach Mark Ward, who added cross country to his track and field duties this year. "In my whole life, I'd never seen him run down from behind in any race. To hear that he was run down in state cross country..."
Something had to change.
It started in the spring. Ward dialed down the amount of times Moskowitz raced in the 3,200 meters. The result? Moskowitz won the state title in 8 minutes, 59.53 seconds, becoming the first athlete in several years to break nine minutes at the state meet. It also ranked as one of the top times in the nation and it was the first 3,200 title a boy from Kitsap county has ever won.
He also added the 1,600 title two days later, in 4:11.75. He was the first male runner from the county to win the 1,600 in 57 years. Both times are county records. So maybe there's something to racing less.
"A good, hard race, it can take you a week to come back from that," Ward said. A tough practice takes a day or two to recover from, the coach said.
Moskowitz raced for just the fifth time this season last week when he won the Narrows League with a meet- and course-record time of 15:05 at Fort Steilacoom State Park in Lakewood. Last year, the league meet was his 10th race of the season.
"I wanted to be as fresh as I can because I don't want to lose another state championship," Moskowitz said.
He has his mind set on a sub-15 minute time at the West Central District meet on Saturday at American Lake Golf Course in Lakewood. The race is part of the Westside Classic, which is the largest collection of district meets in the state.
Going under 15 would be a rare feat. Since the state cross country meet went to a 5-kilomter format (3.1 miles) in 1997, no runner has gone under 15. The state meet is held at the Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco. Different courses yield different times, but if Moskowitz can go under 15 minutes at districts, you know he'll try to repeat it at state.
After state comes the postseason meets. Last year, Moskowitz finished 14th in the national meet, the Foot Locker Cross Country National Finals. He said he wants to finish higher this year.
So how did Moskowitz become so good? His appetite for running is becoming legendary.
Last spring, after CK had its track and field banquet, he just had to go for a run. It was 11:20 p.m. A few years ago, he was caught returning from a run at 4 a.m.
"He's got such a drive," his mother, Luana Hagele, said.
Ask Moskowitz when he started running, and he'll tell you about runs at Silver Ridge Elementary School, where they ran a mile four times a year. When he got to CK Junior High, a PE teacher suggested he go out for track. It was as if a beam of light shown upon him. He was immediately interested.
"I didn't even know track was a sport," Moskowitz said.
He had played baseball and basketball before that, mostly finding his way to the bench.
"It tears a kid apart," Hagele said, remembering her son's early sporting endeavors.
And he's done nothing but improve by great leaps each year. His freshman season, he made the state cross country meet, and then finished ninth as a sophomore. In the spring, he showed he was the state's top distance runner. And along the way, he drug his twin sister Shannon into the sport. She's changed from a junior-high thrower to a sprinter to a state medalist in the 800 and top-flight cross country runner.
"He's definitely the one that got me into it my freshman year," Shannon said. "He compliments me on how hard I push. I think that's what he saw in me."
They're hoping to both win state cross country titles in November in Pasco. Shannon finished fourth last year, but she has battled a myriad of health problems this fall. She was considering shutting it down until the spring track season. She kept running and finished third at the league meet.
"She hasn't given up on winning state, and I hope she never does, because anything can happen at district and state," Ward said.

The Defense Department says a man whose organs were donated to four people before it was learned he had rabies was in the Air Force.
Spokeswoman Cynthia O. Smith identified the donor as a 20-year-old North Carolina man who had been in the Air Force for about 17 weeks before he died in 2011. He was training to become an aviation mechanic in Pensacola, Fla., when he became sick.
A Maryland patient who received one of the man's kidneys later died of rabies. Authorities are treating three other people who got organs from the donor.
Public health officials say they're trying to identify people in five states who were in close contact with the donor or the recipients.
Associated Press writer Eric Tucker in Washington contributed to this report.
