Hunter Hall, president of the Covington/Newton Chamber of Commerce, announced this past week that current vice president for economic development Roger Harrison is leaving his position.
We are glad to see the Newton Board of Education has narrowed its choice to replace Dr. Gary Mathews.
The Covington City Council, at a work session this past week, decided to move forward with the idea of building a natural gas fueling station.
Prior to the Nelson Heights Community Center opening in 2010, there was a struggle for control between District 4 Commissioner J.C. Henderson and The Newton County Recreation Commission. Commissioner Henderson's attempts to be intimately involved in the operation of the center were ultimately rebuffed, however his aspirations to be the anointed leader never diminished.
In a recent MSNBC "Lean In" commercial, Tulane professor and network commentator Melissa Harris-Perry said this about traditional parenthood:
With all of the pressures of living in today's world - like not having a job, a possible war with Korea again, having the fear of not having proper medical insurance because of government rules and regulations - the one thing we shouldn't have to worry about is the abusive political correctness that is heaped upon us every day, mostly by a single-minded minority of unhappy people.
Recently, we were asked if newspapers were going the way of the Pony Express.
This past week, the architect of the great Atlanta school cheating scandal and her gang of fellow alleged cheaters showed up at the Fulton County Jail to post bonds so they could remain free until a jury of their peers decides their fate.

God expects from men something more than at such times, and that it were much to be wished for the credit of their religion as well as the satisfaction of their conscience that their Easter devotions would in some measure come up to their Easter dress.

I have a good idea what Daniel felt like when he was tossed into the lion's den way back yonder. I found myself last week on the floor of the State House and the State Senate, looking eyeball-to-eyeball with some of the very folks I have cuffed around in this space over the years.
Covington is a wonderful place to live, a place where it's easy to forget how many people are in our community because it still maintains a small-town vibe. But it's not exactly the place to go for entertainment on the weekends. Most of our staff live locally and travel out of Covington for entertainment. It seemed only natural to try and help the people of Covington by educating them on what's going on in the world of entertainment, as well as the world of news.
We ran into a local convenience store the other day to get a bag of ice. In front of us was a woman with two children buying milk and other food products; she paid by using her EBT card.
Again, we are proud this month to be highlighting the accomplishments and leadership of our local black residents, who through their perserverance, have helped make Newton County a place that we are proud to call home. One such person is Forrest Sawyer Jr.
During the last few months, we have on many occasions heard of the surplus the city of Covington currently has. We salute the efforts and leadership of past councils as well as the current administration, and City Manager Steve Horton and his staff on their efforts in fostering this surplus.

 The 2009 legislative session completed day 15 on Feb. 6 with bills passing through the chamber this week which will provide for tax relief and child safety. I support these pieces of legislation and look forward to their implementation. Unfortunately, even with the good work in those areas, very bad budget news has dominated the week at your capitol.
 I can pride myself on two recent, major accomplishments. Both have to do with my fondness for down-home Southern cooking. I favor down-home Southern cooking because I am from a down-home Southern home. That, and it tastes good.
 A wise friend reminded me recently of an old saying: "Dogs don't bark at parked cars." It was my friend's way of telling me that criticism, while never pleasant, is a sign you are doing something and trying to get things done. No action pleases everyone. So, the only way to never be criticized is to never do anything. Leave the car parked, if you don't want to hear the barking.

REVIEW: Hollow Man 2
Christian Slater is a genius.
If Hollow Man 2 had a subtitle, it would have been "Christian Slater makes an ass-load of money for 5 minutes worth of work".
Not since No Retreat. No Surrender. have I seen such blatant exploitation of an actor's marketability (i know that is a stretch for both Slater and Van Damme) for a minimal amount of screen time. Slater appears in Hollow Man 2 for little more than 5 minutes of this film, in two separate scenes. After that the rest of the movie is his voiceover. Even on the making of Hollow Man 2 (yes I sat threw the special features... Bad Movie Knight Note: The 'Making Of's" or "Bonus Materials" on some of these gems are even funnier than the shitty movie themselves. Is there anything better than listening to a group of untalented assholes talk about how they made a horribly unwatchable piece of crap film? Certainly not!) there is a guy wrapped up in typical Invisible Man garb (face wrapped, sunglasses, gloves) with Slater's voiceover. I don't think he even spent the time to sit through the special edition, so he voiced it in! How great is that. Again. Slater = genius.
Hollow Man 2, attemptes to take off from where the original left off, which is to say, the main character is invisible, and typical of all transparent man, he's an asshole. No origins or genesis set-ups in the sequel however as we jump right into the action and see (or dont see rather) Christian Slater's character, Michael Griffin attacking an intoxicated man at a black tie affair. The attack is the bench mark for special effects in this film as we see a guy essentially throw himself around a room ala Bruce Campbell in the Evil Dead (which was top notch for the record). Griffin carries the man into a bathroom and attempts to glean information from him through force. The intelligence he is attempting to gather is how to obtain a medication that keeps our invisible friend from dying. Griffin learns that he can obtain the formula from Dr. Maggie Dalton, and quickly dispatches the drunk by slashing his throat with a cell phone chip... huh?
The police act rapidly to stop Griffin, by sending a capable pair of officers to the residence of Dr. Dalton to protect her from Griffin. Detective Frank Turner (played by Peter Facinelli... I've seen this dude around before, he kinda looks like a cross between Tom Cruise and that dork turned bad-ass driver in Christine) and his partner (her name is irrelevant, as I have no idea who she is, and more importantly dies 3 minutes into this gem) are on a stakeout / mission to serve and protect. Griffin shows up, and is unsuccessful in his bid to capture the doctor, but doesn't leave her home without killing the female detective. Her death turns into the standard plot point that drives all of these shitty bad movies.
"He killed my partner. It's personal now!"
Insert the plot from Terminator here. The remainder of Hollow Man 2 is Griffin hunting down Turner and Dr. Dalton. I shit you not. After several failed attempts, Griffin finally captures the doctor and forces her to recreate the medication he needs to survive. Unbeknownst to him Detective Turner got a hold of the invisibility formula and decides to use it on himself to battle Griffin. THis for the record is the dumbest part of the movie. How does turning invisible help you fight a guy who is invisible? You still can't see him jackass. That's like firefighters showing up to a four alarm call with flame throwers.
In any case, Turner and Griffin do battle in an action packed finale. Griffin is tricked by the good Doctor however, and rather than receiving his medication was dosed with rat poison (available in most medical laboratories by the way).... and in case you didn't know.... rat poison makes you visible. Yes! We finally get to see Slater! He actually is in this film (he did appear briefly in the beginning of the film, when they showed him receiving the iinital injection to become invisible. Turner's invisiblity final proves worth something, and after exchanging blows, he cuts off his head with a shovel.... the only way to kill an invisible man.
Hollow Man 2 is a bad movie, but not as bad as I would have hoped. It's somewhat entertaining, and as much as his career has fallen apart, Slater can still act. Everyone else in this movie... not so much. The 'Making of Hollow Man 2' in the special features section is outstanding however, and is a must see. Get it see?! See! Invisible? I'm here all week!

I have to say that this takeover is proving to be more exciting than last season's football, can we do it again next year?
Maybe in March we can have the Northam and Itchen North start the "Stewart/Branson/Beckham/Chemical Ali OUT" chants and then we can all do it again next off-season, otherwise what else are we going to do?
IF a takeover happens, I never want to go through this kind of thing again.
There have been moments when I've actually thought I had lost the club for good.
My ideal excitement is thrashing Spurs in the FA cup like we did all those years ago when WGS was the boss. Beats the $h!t out of takeovers.
Is it still classed as a takeover??
Seeing Lowe kicked out again is the best thing to happen to Saints in years.
I'm not quite sure I'd call it "exciting" Noodles. More sort of "bowel worrying"? (Or is that just my own personal bodily function problem?)
I can't wait for a proper debate about how shxt our players are myself. Those were the days.
Anyway, no worries, next close season we'll be discussing how on earth we are all going to get tickets for the local derby and arguing whether the play-offs is good enough instead of an automatic promotion spot. Probably.
my point really is "its been great awaiting the takeover", I was never in doubt that we would be taken over and thats why I never saw the point of putting any money in the buckets etc. a point proved when we couldn't pay the wages. So now we have all the bidding etc for the club and the best bit now is this expectation that we now have a mega rich owner, but we don't know who it is and we are all guessing etc, hoping its Branson or Rod and WGS is coming back. probabaly gonna bite us all in the arse (Specially if Surman is going, unless he wants to), but its exciting waiting to see what is going to happen, just waiting for that thread to appear, The New Owner is....., bit like the original Paul Allen thread, was that not exciting??
As I said, damn sight more exciting than last season's Total Football.
You call this a take over? THIS is/was[nt] what I call a takeover
Those were the days!
If exciting is the feeling i have felt for the last few weeks I need to remember to take my medicine. The real fear that our club was in it's deaththrows does not ,to me, equal the feeling after Bobby Stokes scored the winner. Or the feeling I got the first time i watched the saints oh so many years ago.
Yep - sailed right over my head. OK, what was the point of the question? Why would it not be classed as a takeover? Were you asking a pertinent question relating to the current situation or were you just making a flippant throw-away remark?

In an interview with World magazine, Robert Woodson Sr. argues that America's social economy discourages what it should promote: innovation and transformation. As president of the Center for Neighborhood Enterprise, an organization he founded in 1981, the conservative activist has led projects that improved poor neighborhoods by tapping into the talents of entrepreneurial individuals within them. He is the author of The Triumphs Of Joseph: How Community Healers Are Reviving Our Streets And Neighborhoods (1998). Excerpts:
In the 1960s you became a leader in the civil rights movement. Looking back, what did the movement do right? What did it do wrong? I led demonstrations against segregation in the schools. My disappointment with the movement was that many of those who suffered and sacrificed most did not benefit from the change. The civil rights movement was essentially a middle-class movement. It benefited primarily people like myself who had a college education...a kind of bait-and-switch game where you use the conditions of one class of people as the bait — and when the resources arrive, the benefits go to well-educated people.
In the '70s you joined a center-right organization, the American Enterprise Institute. What attracted me to AEI was that white liberals very seldom challenge blacks. If I make a stupid argument, very few of them will say it's stupid. But white conservatives would challenge me....What I found refreshing as the only black in an all-white conservative think tank was going into it not knowing anybody and getting treated like a stranger.
A liberal institute would be different? At a liberal institute they would have been all over me, saying 'Oh, come to lunch with us, come to the senior seminar.' I had not earned the right to be invited to senior seminars, so I was appropriately shunned. When I got columns published in The New York Times and in The Washington Post, more people started to speak to me. More people invited me to senior seminars.
In 1981 you started the Center for Neighborhood Enterprise. The word enterprise is in our name because I believe strongly that the principles that operate in a market economy ought to operate in our social economy. Entrepreneurs invest in competition and innovation. Our social economy is just the opposite. The same institutions that were around 40 years ago continue to get funding. There is no competition. They call competition in the social economy 'duplication of effort.' You do not get rewarded for improving things. You get rewarded for the number of people you have served. Our market economy is very different.
They get a reward for the number of people served even if there is no change in their lives? That is right. In fact, there are perverse incentives. If I am the administrator of a social welfare agency and I have 200 kids to serve and my budget is 2 million dollars, I can come back to the Congress and say, 'Now I have 400 kids. I need my budget doubled.' Eighty percent of all dollars spent on poor people go to those who serve poor people. They ask not which problems are solvable, but which problems are fundable.
What can we do about the schools themselves? Support innovation and competition. Right now the Gates Foundation, the Ford Foundation, and others come into a community and decide that reform means taking large schools and breaking them down into smaller schools. They spend millions of dollars doing this. They came into one Baltimore inner-city school and broke it into three multiplexes. The kids on the top floor have computers and uniforms. The first month, those kids get beaten up by the kids on the other two floors because they never took into consideration the civil environment. The same with Chicago: All over; the worst schools are multiplexes. There is chaos.
What's a better way to proceed? That money should have been placed in vouchers and competition. Give churches and others the seed money they need to start small schools. We need to have a thousand small schools started all over the country. Take a lot of these disaffected schoolteachers and let them work with some of these church groups to start small schools the way Marva Collins did in Chicago.
What should individuals do? Become acquainted with grass-roots groups and have a servant's attitude: Be on tap, not on top. You've got to show up and say, 'Use me, Lord.' If you're a good writer, all of these groups need people who can edit and write and interpret what they do. Come in and make yourself available based upon what they need. The main thing is to be honest with people. Do not patronize them. Do not look at them as being pathetic. Do not come in as a liberator. Come in and say, 'I have got some skills; tell me how I can make use of them in your service.'
And how should nonprofits function? We must operate in the social economy the way we do in the economy. Competence ought to be rewarded. In our market economy, it is not what your credentials are that determines who leads. It is what the outcomes are. In our social economy, this ought to apply also.
How can conservatives win inner-city support? Concentrate on practical ways to demonstrate that conservative policies and principles create more livable circumstances. Go seek out people in troubled communities who are solving problems and find out how they can be a blessing to them. When a member of Congress sees an organization that works, why not have a fundraising reception for the group and invite some of his campaign funders to give to this organization? Why not use your position to point to others?
Why do political conservatives receive so few votes from African-Americans, many of whom are socially conservative? Conservatives want to avoid government overreach because they think it will be an infringement on individual liberty. Blacks see and remember that we did not have the right to vote. It was the Supreme Court and the central government that intervened in the market place, that protected us, and that brought about desegregation. It was the federal intervention that protected kids trying to get into schools. They remember that legacy of government. If conservatives can acknowledge that central government in the '60s was useful and necessary in that way, then you can have more dialogue.
What's your Center's biggest project now? Unless there is civil order there can be no activity in the city, so we have been concentrating on reducing youth violence: We are in six cities and 38 of the most dangerous schools. (For more information, see cneonline.org.)

We're less than 7 days away from Assassin's Creed 3's release, so how about we get ready with 7 of the best moments in the entire Assassin's Creed series to get ready? Careful though…major spoilers are DEFINITELY ahead!
#7 - It's a-me, Mario! (Assassin's Creed 2)
Yes yes…he really does say that, and I think it's one of my favorite lines in Assassin's Creed 2. Maybe it's because I'm a huge Super Mario Bros. Fan, but even so…hearing it in this game just made me laugh.
#6 - Ezio Killing Pope Rodrigo (Assassin's Creed 2)
The power hungry man gets his hands on the Apple, but he wants more power. To seek revenge for his family, Ezio makes it his job to stop him! So..when he finally gets the chance, Ezio beats the crap out of him.
#5 - Desmond Kills Lucy (Assassin's Creed Brotherhood)
Desmond and the others have been searching for the Apple the entire story, but gamers were shocked by the end of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Upon finding and touching the Apple of Eden, Desmond's body falls under the control of Juno and unfortunately she's out to get rid of someone…that person is…Lucy.
#4 - 16's Sacrifice (Assassin's Creed Revelations)
After finally meeting 16 we find out…he's a bit…bonkers? I mean…wouldn't you be if you were stuck in the Animus? Anyway throughout the game you're never really sure if he's good…or bad, that is until the Animus starts deleting it excess data, including Desmond, and 16 sacrifices himself so Desmond can carry out the rest of the story.
#3 - The End of Altair and Ezio's Story (Assassin's Creed Revelations)
After three games of playing as Ezio and Altair, it's finally time for their stories to come to an end. Ezio finds his way to Altair's library and unlocks the truth about the Apple that the Templars are searching for and Altair thus bringing an end to their stories.
#2 - Ezio Visits Masyaf (Assassin's Creed Revelations)
It was revealed as a trailer for Assassin's Creed Revelations, but it is my favorite scene of the game…when Ezio makes his way to the former home of the Assassin Order, Masyaf. Ezio is greeted by Templars and captured, but sees visions of Altair while there bringing the stories together. Not only that, he breaks free just before his execution and then walks away like it was nothing. Awesome.
#1 - Ezio Turns Into An Assassin (Assassin's Creed 2)
The best moment of the entire series has got to be when Ezio, the protagonist of majority of the series so far, decides to don the Assassin's hood and join the brotherhood. It may not be the very beginning of his story, but seeing him put on the hood for the first time is definitely the best scene of the entire series.
Anyway those are my choices for the best 7 scenes in the Assassin's Creed series.
Assassin's Creed 3, starring the brand new protagonist Connor, will release on October 30th on the Xbox 360 and PS3!
Will you be buying it?!

Egypt's Military Government Quiets Revolutionaries
It's been nearly a year since the uprising began in Egypt that toppled President Hosni Mubarak began. The revolutionaries that started it all are again finding themselves persecuted. The military council that runs Egypt is targeting them, using the court system and prison to shut them up. Unlike a year ago, the revolutionaries can no longer count on much popular support.

Eden Prairie (Minn.) boys lacrosse coach Ryan Ward will lead the Edmonton Rush into the West Divisional Semifinal against the Minnesota Swarm (Photo Credit: Scott Pierson)
Technically, Ryan Ward is a visiting player when he steps into the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul.
In reality, this is home for Ward, who works as a high school physical education teacher in St. Paul, coaches the No. 3-state ranked Eden Prairie boys' lacrosse team and lives in Chanhassen.
"I like playing in front of people I know, it's exciting," Ward said before he leads the Edmonton Rush against the host Minnesota Swarm in the National Lacrosse League Western Divisional Final on Saturday at 8:30 p.m. CT and shown live on CBS Sports Network. "I like to have my wife come and watch. I always want to play well when people I know are watching."
A two-time NLL all-star, Ward had one of the most clutch games of his nine-year pro career last Saturday when he scored five goals and added six assists in Edmonton's 19-11 upset victory over the Calgary Roughnecks in the West Divisional Semifinals.
The unlikely win – Edmonton had the worst record of any playoff team at 6-10 – propelled Ward into the de facto "home" game against the Swarm, a franchise for which he played for five seasons before being traded to Edmonton before the 2010 season.
Unfortunately for Ward, Saturday's playoff showdown goes head-to-head with another major Twin Cites area event.
Prom night.
"Saturday is Eden Prairie's prom, so I don't think that the guys are going to go," said Jake Woodring, Eden Prairie's standout junior midfielder. "(Ward has) really been lighting it up, and we support him 100 percent."
A native of Victoria, B.C., who starred at Butler University, Ward doesn't mind that his players are likely no-shows for what will be one of the biggest games of his career.
Eden Prairie played three games in three days, a brutal stretch that concluded with an 8-3 loss to Minnetonka on Thursday. The Eagles (10-2) also played three games the previous week, including a 9-7 loss to two-time defending state champion Benilde-St. Margaret's on May 5.
"They need a little time away from lacrosse, I think," Ward said. "Their rest is valuable. They can watch it on TV."
Ward said he fell in love with the Twin Cities are when he played for the Swarm. When he was traded to Edmonton, he continued to make his home here. Now, he is a regular jetsetter making flights between Edmonton and Minneapolis.
"I do it every year," Ward, 31, said about juggling careers. "It does get a little tough at times with the family and the balancing act, but that's just the way it is. That's just part of what I have to do."
Ward said he rarely attends Rush practices, but he does have NLL-sized goals at his home and St. Paul Preparatory School, where he teaches.
"It's a working-man's league, and they just understand that's how it is," Ward said about his long-distance relationship with the Rush. "But if I wasn't playing well and contributing and scoring, I wouldn't be in the league anymore."
Ward said being a coach has made him a better player, allowing him to better understand what is happening on the field and why. Conversely, he said being a player helps him relate to the Eagles as they go through the ups and downs of a season.
Woodring, who has committed to play for Division I Denver, said Ward commands instant respect.
"It's just nice to have a coach who can talk it, and he can back it up," Woodring said. "He can show you a move. He's not afraid to get out there and put his body on a defender and show us how it should be done.
"Ryan is a great coach, I respect him so much. He's done a lot for our program."

The proposed ruling for providing a full disclosure places a disproportionate burden on small businesses. It will essentially cripple the Network Marketing industry while not providing the protection that is intended. An average person receiving a fraudelent disclosure may be given a false sense of security. Most legitimate business offer adequate refund periods, often 30 days, which actually gives the person the ability to get a better evaluation than pieces of paper before. It's business opportunities like network marketing that provide millions of people the ability to improve their financial situation. Without network marketing, my financial situation would not be nearly as good as it is now. The vast majority of business companies are legitimate and honest. The company I work with is a publicly traded company that is governed by other regulations which provide a legitimate safeguards against fraud. These proposed rules would dramatically interfere with our ability to operate as a viable legitimate business. Eradicating large industries because of a few fraudulent operators would damage large segments of the economy while not providing the desired benefit. Enforcement of current business opportunity laws would provide more of a safeguard.

He feels happy when he sees our good deeds and weeps when he sees our sins.
There is a hadith in which Imam (as) has said that he cries day and night over the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (as). He cries tears of blood over his martyrdom.
Is it correct that we make our Imam(as) weep due to our deeds? Since we claim to love Imam (as) shouldn't we try our best to make Imam (as) smile?
-Last words of Imam Jafar Sadiq(as)
But we have to distinguish between right and wrong.
Don't we pray in Surah Al Fatihah in every rakat of every namaz,
"Guide us to the straight path. The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray."
Who are the people who have been bestowed favors? and Who are the people who have evoked Allah's anger and have gone astray?
This is the story of Ayatullah Mirza Mahdi Isfahani(ra) taken from the book Deen-e-Fitrat:
"A marhoom Ayatullah (r.a) was one of the well-known scholars of the last decades. He was a spiritual leader as well as a jurist. He was a great spiritual and moral influence for years upon the Hauz-e-Ilmia of Mashhad. The present great schools of thoughts are a result of his teachings. This was because all his life he stood like a firm barrier against narrow-mindedness and deviations. He considered the Holy Quran and the traditions of Ahlul Bayt (a.s) to be the only source of true Islam.
Most of the present Shia scholars and religious leaders had been his students. They have always followed his teachings.
When this great teacher was himself a student, all kinds of schools of thought had penetrated the academic world. For example, the philosophical school, the Gnostic and others. This scenario confused him to a great extent.
Being a revolutionary thinker, he could not decide upon the direction that he should take for spiritual advancement.
At last he prayed to Hazrat Vali Asr (a.s) and sought his help to find a way for him.
Hazrat (a.s) honored him by his presence when he was in Wadi-us-Salaam, Najaf sitting near the graves of Prophet Hud (a.s) and Prophet Saleh (a.s). Hazrat (a.s) met him and guided him too… When he called Imam (a.s) for help with his eyes filled with tears he was rewarded with the visit from Imam (a.s). He not only had the honor of seeing the Imam (a.s) with his own eyes but he was also cured of the disease of indecision.
When he awoke and looked at Hazrat (a.s) he saw a green band on the chest of Imam (a.s). It was 20 centimeters wide and 40 centimeters long. Inscribed upon it in luminous white were the following words:
"Seeking knowledge from sources other than Ahlul Bayt (a.s) is equivalent to denying us. And certainly I am established at present by Allah. And I am the Hujjat, the son of Hasan (al-Askari) (a.s)."
The word 'Hujjat ibn al-Hasan' was inscribed like a signature. After this, the Imam (a.s) disappeared from his sight.
The timely message of Hazrat (a.s) served like an ointment for his burnt heart. The correct path became manifest to him.
After this event of having been honored by the clear guidance of Imam (a.s), the respected scholar never referred to him by any other title except the title of "Master of All Sciences".
After this, the Late Ayatullah came to Iran. In Iran, he began to teach religious students through a method purely based on the Quran and the traditions of Ahlul Bayt. His sole endeavor was to keep alive the knowledge and recognition of Ahlul Bayt (a.s)."
(Quoted from Deen-e-Fitrat vol.1)
In the Holy Quran, Allah orders the Prophet (sawa) to say, "I do not ask of you any reward for this (the toils of prophethood), except love for my family." (42:23). Loving the Ahlulbayt (as) is the foundation of religion. It is the most important thing in the world.
The Noble Prophet (sawa) said: "Love of Ali (a.s.) consumes the sins like fire consumes wood." (Behaar al Anwaar -narrating from Ibne Abbas(ra) )
The hadith continues: "then whosoever wishes to enter the city of knowledge and wisdom should entire through the gate."
People who don't enter through the gate are thieves!
(via batulie)
some guy on tv just called muawiya 'ameer al mumineen'…. Whut O_O
This is nothing. The salafis even say "rehmatullah" after taking Yazeed's name!
This is because when you don't follow the path of the Ahlulbayt(as), you lose the ability to distinguish between right and wrong.
hayaat replied to your post: I don't like it when people change my posts and then reblog them.
This may sound like a dumb questions, but what does pbuh&f mean? I've seen pbuh but not that.
There is no such thing as a dumb question.
pbuh&f means peace be upon him and his family.
pbuh simply means peace be upon him.
Some people because of their twisted ideological inclinations have a problem with sending blessings on the family of the Prophet (the Ahlulbayt(as)). Even though sending blessings on the Prophet's(sawa) family is obligatory.
In his book (Sawaa'iq), Ibn Hajr quotes the Prophet(sawa) as saying,
"Do not deliver an unfinished salawaat for me."
Ibn Hajr adds, when the Prophet(sawa) was asked what he meant by an unfinished salawaat,the Prophet(sawa) replied:
"Do not say 'O Allah! send Thy peace and blessings upon Muhammad instead say: Allah! send Thy peace and blessings upon Muhammad and upon Aali Muhammad".Imam Shafi'i attests to this Hadith in a famous poem:
Roughly translated Al-Shafi'i says:Oh the love of Ahlul-Bayt is such, That it is a must since the Qur'an has it established. Suffice it that their distinction is such that the prayer is invalid if no salawaat is offered for them.

This neighborhood eatery, run by brothers Jonathan and Barry Williams (pictured, L-R) along with their mother, sister and other family members, specializes in homey grub at tremendously fair prices. They're currently open Mon.-Sat., 7 a.m.-4 p.m., with plans to expand into dinner service later this month. For breakfast, hit up omelette specials ($3.75-$5.95), hot cakes, steak and eggs and our favorite, fish (fried flounder or salmon cakes) and grits; for lunch, you've got assorted platters, salads, sandwiches and burgers.

Three or four weeks should see the opening of the Gold Standard, a modern redo of the restaurant that Roger Harman and the late Duane Ball originally founded in 1979.

breaking news
(Washington, DC) -- The U.S. House is nearing final, historic votes on sweeping healthcare reforms. The landmark legislation aims to expand healthcare to more than 30-million Americans at a cost of $940-billion over ten years. The legislation also goes after abusive practices of the health insurance industry, including denying coverage for pre-existing conditions. Its also projected to reduce the federal deficit by $138-billion over a decade. Republicans challenge those budget assumptions, calling the Democratic legislation deeply flawed, overly complicated and too expensive. Democrats call it a long-overdue overhaul of the nations complex and costly healthcare system. They need 216 votes for passage and every vote has been counted and recounted in a long process of sometimes heated backroom deliberations. That path was cleared when Michigan Democrat Bart Stupak announced he will support the legislation. Stupak and several anti-abortion Democrats threatened to block passage. Under a deal struck with the White House, President Obama will issue an executive order reaffirming a longstanding ban on the use of federal funds for abortion. As the House deliberated, conservative "Tea Party" activists continued protesting outside the Capitol. Many shouted, "Kill the bill!" On Saturday, some protesters shouted the "N" word at black lawmakers, spat on at least one and hurled anti-gay slurs at Massachusetts Democratic Congressman Barney Frank. Those actions were condemned by Republican and Democratic congressional leaders alike. House Republicans threw parliamentary challenges at the Democratic legislation. Wisconsin Republican Congressman Paul Ryan called it the "mother of all unfunded mandates." Republicans argue that the Democratic legislation is the first step in a government takeover of the U.S. healthcare system. They claim it will raise taxes and reduce the quality of healthcare. Health insurance reform has been President Obamas top legislative priority. The President and congressional Democratic leaders have put enormous political capital on the outcome of this single issue. The House is expected to pass legislation the Senate approved late last year, followed by passage of a series of so-called "fixes." The Senate is expected to start considering the "fixes" this coming week. Republicans plan to make every parliamentary effort to stop the legislation from becoming law. If it does become law, Republicans plan immediate legal challenges.

Special needs school in Ham in line for special upgrade
6:00am Thursday 24th January 2013 in News By Clare Buchanan
Parents of children with special educational needs (SEN) could have purpose built facilities when a special needs school expands on to the site of three mainstream counterparts.
Plans include developing and relocating at Strathmore School in Ham, by creating purpose-built facilities co-located on the sites of Russell Primary School and Grey Court School.
The consultation also proposes a third location - a new SEN school located on the Clifden Road site in Twickenham.
Councillor Christine Percival, cabinet member for education, said: "By developing the special school provision alongside our mainstream schools, we can increase the extent to which children with disabilities and learning difficulties can access the whole curriculum and extended school activities.
"At the same time they will have a specially designed facility with remodelled, high quality buildings to ensure that their needs are addressed."
Interested parties can have their say on the council's website and are invited to a public meeting on February 11 at Ham Youth Centre at 6pm.

Our oven-fried bacon recipe is a revelation. Cooking bacon in the oven has many advantages. First, the oven gives you a larger margin of error (a couple of minutes) than the skillet when it comes to timing. Second, the oven cooks the bacon strips more consistently; when part of the bacon is done, all of it is done—there are no raw or burnt spots. And the only thing you need to do, following our oven-fried bacon recipe, once the bacon's in the oven, is to turn the pan halfway through cooking.
Use a large, rimmed baking sheet, such as a jelly-roll pan, that is shallow enough to promote browning, yet tall enough (at least 3/4-inch in height) to contain the rendered bacon fat. To save time, you can add the bacon to the oven before it reaches 400 degrees, but exact cooking time will vary from oven to oven. If cooking more than one tray of bacon, exchange their oven positions once about halfway through the cooking process.

Bill O'Reilly has a point about Jennifer Aniston's comment
Posted by: arabellasays In: Media Frenzy| Social Issues
It may cause me physical pain to admit this, but Bill O'Reilly has a point. Not that Jennifer Aniston herself is destructive to society (although her movies are another matter entirely), but the sentiment that she expressed in support of her new film, The Switch, may be. There is a huge difference between the situation [...]

I have decided that I would like to read the Christian Bible, starting with the Old Testament and then New. I admit I know very little about different versions of the bible...the very helpful lady at Coles bookstore recommended the King James version, so this is the one I purchased.
Does anyone know if this is the best choice? Any recommendations?
I've been using the Complete Jewish Bible translated by David H. Stern since I was a child. It is to me one of the best translations out there, I love how it reconnects the bible to it's true jewish roots. After all christianity originated as a sect of Judaism, so to me to truly understand a religion you must start with it's origins. So I would recommend this or any other Messianic or Hebraic translations. If on the other hand you want a modern common christian outlook the NIV or other such versions would be more appropriate. Also I agree with all the other postings of the KJV It is completely inaccurate in translations and understanding of the content.

FALLS CHURCH, Va., Jul 08, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- The Department of the Army has awarded DynCorp International (NYSE:DCP) and its two partners, CH2M Hill and Taos Industries, a task order for logistics support for the Afghanistan-South Area of Responsibility (AOR) under its existing LOGCAP IV contract.

Report: Euro Tour likely to side with USGA, R&A
- By Ryan Lavner
- Feb 25, 2013 2:43 PM ET
A showdown between the PGA Tour and governing bodies appears imminent – and the Tour reportedly won't have the backing of its counterparts across the pond.
Though the European Tour has yet to formally comment on the governing bodies' proposal to ban the anchored stroke, it is expected that chief executive George O'Grady will address the issue later this week, according to the report Monday by James Corrigan of The Telegraph. The 90-day comment period for the proposed ban expires Thursday, and the European Tour players are likely to side with the R&A and USGA, according to the report.
There already is the awkward possibility that players could anchor the putter during a regular PGA Tour event, but not during at least two of the major championships that are run by the USGA (U.S. Open) and R&A (British Open). The European Tour's reported siding with the governing bodies also could throw into flux the four World Golf Championships events.
According to the report, O'Grady was in Tucson, Ariz., last week for the WGC-Match Play Championship, where he met with PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem. On Sunday, Finchem addressed reporters in Arizona and also went on the NBC broadcast to state the PGA Tour's opposition to the proposed ban, saying, "We think if they were to move forward they would be making a mistake."
The Telegraph also reported that Finchem spoke on the phone with R&A chief executive Peter Dawson about the issue, though no details of that call have emerged.

World Cup transitions to North America
WHISTLER, Canada (Jan. 30, 2012)–After a one-week hiatus to transition from Europe to North America, World Cup racing resumes in Whistler, Canada for the seventh event of the season.
Competition begins at 3 pm local time on Thursday with the women's skeleton competition, followed by women's bobsled at 6:30 pm. Men's skeleton competitors race at 3 pm on Friday, and the men's two-man bobsled event takes place at 6:30 pm. The Whistler World Cup will wrap up at 4 pm on Sunday with the four-man bobsled race.
Many U.S. athletes will get their chance to compete on the 2010 Olympic track for the first time. Bobsled pilots Steven Holcomb, John Napier, Elana Meyers and Jazmine Fenlator decided to forego the final two World Cup races to gain valuable training time on the 2012 World Championship track in Lake Placid, N.Y. Women's bobsled pilot Bree Schaaf will continue on the World Cup circuit alongside rookie drivers Jamie Greubel and Megan Hill. Men's pilots Cory Butner and Nick Cunningham will be gunning for the podium in an attempt to qualify a third U.S. sled at World Championships.
Intercontinental Cup athletes Greg West and Rachelle Rasmussen will join world Cup skeleton athletes Matt Antoine, Kyle Tress, Annie O'Shea and Kimber Gabryszak in Whistler. Meanwhile, John Daly and Katie Uhlaender will compete with Luke Schulz, Tom Santagato and Savannah Graybill in the Calgary, Canada Intercontinental Cup races Friday and Saturday.
Check out the action live from Whistler by visiting www.fibt.com. For media inquiries, please contact Amanda Bird, USBSF Marketing & Communications Manager, at firstname.lastname@example.com, or at (518) 354-2250.

ANN ARBOR, MI - SEPTEMBER 10: William Campbell #73 and Brandin Hawthorne #7 of the University of Michigan celebrate after recovering a Notre Dame Irish fumble in the fourth quarter of the game at Michigan Stadium on September 10, 2011 in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The Wolverines defeated the Irish 35-31. (Photo by Leon Halip/Getty Images)
Michigan defensive tackle Will Campbell was arraigned for misdemeanor and felony vandalism charges on Thursday fro an incident from April 7th. For more on the Wolverines, go to Maize n' Brew.
There's just no break for Detroit sports. If somebody isn't getting pulled over with marijuana in their car at four in the morning, then somebody is getting arraigned for an incident that went under the radar over a month ago. That is referring to Michigan Wolverines senior defensive tackle Will Campbell, who, according to AnnArbor.com, was arraigned on Thursday by a Washtenaw County magistrate on a felony charge of malicious destruction of property, as well as a misdemeanor for the same thing.
According to the report, it stems from an incident on April 7, but there are no actual details of the incident at the moment. The felony charge refers to destruction or damage of property worth more than $1,000, but less than $20,000, while the misdemeanor charge refers to the same thing but property that is worth more than $200 but less than $1,000.
The felony charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The misdemeanor charge carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison and a $2,000 fine.
Campbell is projected to be a starter at defensive tackle for the Wolverines, after a few disappointing seasons with the school. He hasn't quite lived up to his potential, but has been a constant during this offseason and his name has been mentioned more than once in praise by the coaching staff.
It's all up-in-the-air as to how this will affect those plans, as the school, nor Campbell's attorney, have released statements. As noted, there's no actual details on what happened so it's hard to even project what might happen with all of this.

The Industry's Foundation for High Performance Graphics
OpenGL® is the most widely adopted 2D and 3D graphics API in the industry, bringing thousands of applications to a wide variety of computer platforms. It is window-system and operating-system independent as well as network-transparent. OpenGL enables developers of software for PC, workstation, and supercomputing hardware to create high-performance, visually compelling graphics software applications, in markets such as CAD, content creation, energy, entertainment, game development, manufacturing, medical, and virtual reality. OpenGL exposes all the features of the latest graphics hardware.
OpenGL 4.3 at a glance
The OpenGL 4.3 and OpenGL Shading Language 4.30 Specifications were released on August 6, 2012.
New features of OpenGL 4.3 include:
- compute shaders that harness GPU parallelism for advanced computation such as image, volume, and geometry processing within the context of the graphics pipeline;
- shader storage buffer objects that enable vertex, tessellation, geometry, fragment and compute shaders to read and write large amounts of data and pass significant data between shader stages;
- texture parameter queries to discover actual supported texture parameter limits on the current platform;
- high quality ETC2 / EAC texture compression as a standard feature, eliminating the need for a different set of textures for each platform;
- debug capability to receive debugging messages during application development;
- texture views for interpreting textures in many different ways without duplicating the texture data itself;
- indirect multi-draw that enables the GPU to compute and store parameters for multiple draw commands in a buffer object and re-use those parameters with one draw command, particularly efficient for rendering many objects with low triangle counts;
- increased memory security that guarantees that an application cannot read or write outside its own buffers into another application's data;
- a multi-application robustness extension that ensures that an application that causes a GPU reset will not affect any other running applications.
