Aretha Franklin started her recording career in 1960 with Columbia Records. But it wasn`t until she jumped to Atlantic and producer Jerry Wexler in 1966 that she began to realize her full potential. In the years that followed, Aretha--who will be appearing with the Spinners Friday through Sunday at the Chicago Theatre--topped the soul charts an unprecedented 13 times:
``I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You,`` 1967.
``Respect,`` 1967.
``Baby I Love You,`` 1967.

State Rep. Andy Brenner Compares Planned Parenthood To Nazis
State Rep. Andrew Brenner took to Facebook this week to share his feelings about Planned Parenthood, effectively calling the entire organization a bunch of Nazis. "Their complete disrespect for life and callous behavior is akin to how the Nazis spoke of Jews, disabled people, and others whom they killed," wrote Brenner.
Brenner appears to have been commenting on some highly-altered videos released by the anti-choice group Center for Medical Progress. The group claims the videos prove Planned Parenthood sells aborted fetal tissue for profit. The group and their videos have been debunked by multiple sources.
It would be easy to excuse this as a one-time slip up on the part of the Delaware County politico. But Brenner and his family have a long history of saying dumb and outright false things online, much of it on the Brenner Brief, a website formerly operated by Brenner's wife Sara Marie.
Brenner has written stories about fracking for the site that completely mix up many important facts, and the site received national attention when they ran a story suggesting that the massacre of children at Sandy Hook Elementary School might be part of a government conspiracy by President Obama to institute more gun regulations.
They Brenners were eventually was forced to sell off the website after Andy (a member of the Ohio House's education committee ) embarrassed himself by writing a series of posts claiming public schools are "Socialism" and proposed that Ohio do "something that was done about 25 years ago in the former Soviet Union and eastern bloc." Namely, selling off all state assets to a small number of rich oligarchs.
With their website gone, it seems they have taken to Facebook to spread their right-wing drivel.
So let me clear it up for you, Andy:
Planned Parenthood of Greater Ohio is an organization that provides health services to over 50 thousand Ohio women each year. Less than 2% of the medical services they provided last year were related to abortion and none of the fetal tissue was donated because it is already against Ohio law to do so.
The Nazis were antisemitic, pan-German nationalists who murdered millions of people in their quest for world domination.
Any questions?
Stephen Beard
Whew! At least he didn't call them Commies.
just think what he would have said if those videos were not deceptively edited!

MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) — A jury has convicted a woman of manslaughter and assault charges in a car crash near Medford that killed her daughter and injured her son.
The Mail Tribune reports 28-year-old Necia Hanson was found guilty Wednesday of manslaughter and assault in the crash that killed 6-year-old Bella Keesee and injured Bernie Keesee in April 2016.
The jury acquitted Hanson on a more serious count of first-degree manslaughter and driving under the influence of intoxicants.
Hanson was driving on Blackwell Road near Dean Creek Road when she reportedly veered her car into a semitrailer headed in the opposite direction.
Her daughter was ejected from the car and died at the scene.
A sentencing hearing is set for May 17.

Nature's Innovation rolls out Bed Bug Patrol travel spray pen
BUFORD, Ga. — Nature's Innovation on Saturday announced the launch of its Bed Bug Patrol travel spray pen, a nonpesticide spray for the elimination of bed bugs.
"Six years ago, I started hearing rumblings that bed bugs were becoming a big problem again and the only way to get rid of them was with chemicals that contained carcinogenic ingredients," stated Bill Carlson, CEO of Nature's Innovation. "In 2004, as a certified homeopath and an avid natural products expert, I decided to come up with a formula using only 100% EPA-exempt natural ingredients. After a year of laboratory testing and reformulating, I developed Bed Bug Patrol as a green alternative to traditional pesticides."
Bed Bug Patrol works by blocking an adrenaline-like neurotransmitter called octopamine only found in insects, Carlson said. By blocking octopamine, Bed Bug Patrol is able to stop key neurotransmitter and neuromodulator receptors that affect the bed bug's central nervous system, shutting down key bodily functions. The essential oils also permeate the exoskeleton and eat away the hard cutin layer shell, he added.
Supervalu aims to boost customers' health-and-wellness 'iQ'
In an effort to deliver to shoppers a whole health-focused shopping experience, Supervalu's pharmacy and grocery teams are working closely together to develop innovative service offerings that cut across three platforms: preventive care, diabetes care and medication therapy management. The chain clearly is demonstrating its focus on being a one-stop health solution for its shoppers.
Recently, Supervalu expanded its nutrition iQ program, which initially launched in 2009 and currently spans more than 800 stores under various banners. For 2011, the grocery retailer expanded the in-store nutritional navigation program to include the fresh food departments and more robust nutrition information for the center store. The program now offers in the fresh departments new informational signs highlighting the key attributes of the foods, such as "Helps support healthy digestion." In the center store, the program has been expanded to include 100% juice and vitamins A, C and iron.
To help those customers with diabetes, the grocer announced in late October 2010 the launch of its "living healthy with my diabetes" program. Under this program, in-store pharmacy services include diabetes education, diabetes self-management services, blood-glucose screenings, blood-pressure monitoring and face-to-face medication reviews.
"In addition to offering nutritious foods in our grocery aisles, our pharmacists and dietitians can help educate customers, provide personalized training and guide them to the information, products and services they need to maintain a healthy lifestyle," stated Chris Dimos, Supervalu pharmacy president.
Food City cooks up wellness in the Healthy Living Kitchen
If you ask executives at Food City, it's part of the role of a supermarket pharmacy operator to help its customers understand how healthy eating plays into overall health and wellness. It's a responsibility they take pretty seriously.
"I think in the supermarket we should be focusing on what are healthy eating habits," Don Clark VP pharmacy services told DSN. "Obesity in the United States is the root of a lot of these health problems that we have."
To help keep its end of the bargain, Food City in January partnered with the University of Tennessee Medical Center to expand the reach of Healthy Living Kitchen, a program that brings nutrition education to schools, community events and local Food City stores.
Consisting of a registered dietitian, cardiac nurse specialist and senior executive chef from UT Medical Center, the Healthy Living Kitchen team presents healthy cooking classes and provides information on nutrition, label reading and making the right choices while grocery shopping. The expanded program will include grocery shopping tours at select Food City stores with a UT Medical Center registered dietitian.
The program fits in well with Food City's NuVal system, which scores more than 35,000 food items on a scale of 1 to 100, taking into consideration more than 30 nutrients and evaluating the dietary importance; the higher the score, the higher the nutrition.

Attractive And Beautiful Garden
Many people wonder if the cladding is the perfect choice for their gardens. Cladding serves several functions besides being attractive and beautiful. However, there are many who are not aware of these functions.
Garden And For Flooring
It is a very strong material that has the capacity of withstanding corrosion. Stone cladding is something that can be effectively used on the walls of the garden and for flooring for enhancing the look of the walls and the flooring.
The cladding is used on exterior walls of the house and the garden. The cladding is a material that has gained huge popularity in the recent times mainly because it is much lighter in comparison to regular stone and also has a natural appearance.
Stone Cladding For Garden Walls
Gardens serve as great places for homeowners to have a good time during winter and also during fine weather. Garden walls serve as boundaries, but by using the perfect stone cladding for the garden walls, they can be transformed into an exclusive landscape feature offering a wonderful background to the plants and various other beautiful aspects of the garden. The lower walls in the garden can also be coated with cladding. The best walls for cladding are retaining walls around landscaped slopes.One of the simplest methods of adding style to the exteriors of a house is by redoing the garden paths and patios in the effective stone cladding. Coordinating stone cladding for patios offers great continuity between the outdoors and the indoors.
Patios And PathsGravel is charming for the garden, but it can scatter and also get messy very quickly. Stone cladding provides great visual appearance without any hassle or maintenance. Stone cladding in the garden has a good visual impact and can also increase the curb appeal of the garden.
The Benefits Of Stone Cladding In Garden Walls
Weather Protection
Garden constructions that are made using concrete are susceptible to environmental agents like heat, microorganisms, and water. But covering the walls of the garden with stone cladding protects the walls from different degrading agents and also makes them look exquisite.
Affordable Method Of Beautifying Garden Walls
Different features and color combinations make stone cladding attractive options for garden walls. Stonewall clads serve as one of the most inexpensive methods of giving the garden walls the most appealing revamp.Heat resistance, non-porous light on garden walls and low cost are other major advantages of stone cladding.

Ohio Northern takes home third Ohio Athletic Conference crown in four years
MASON, Ohio -- Top-seeded Ohio Northern won its third OAC championship in the last four years and 10th overall, topping No. 3-seed Otterbein by a 5-0 score on Saturday at the Lindner Family Tennis Center.
The Polar Bears improved to 18-4 on the season, while the Cardinals fell to 16-7. The win also gives Northern an automatic bid to the NCAA Division III tournament. The field will be announced on Monday.
"Our guys were excited to get on the courts [on Saturday]," head coach Bob Rohan said. "We were looking forward to playing. We played great all across the board."
Northern opened up play by taking all three doubles courts. The tandem of sophomore Sam Prewitt and junior Blake Troller started things off with a 8-1 win at No. 3 doubles. Freshman John Mostowy and junior Josh Saunders expanded ONU's lead to 2-0 with a 8-1 win at No. 2 doubles.
Senior Joey Frank and junior Do Thai finished off the doubles sweep at No. 1 doubles with a 8-4 victory.
In singles play, Saunders won 6-1, 6-1 at No. 3 singles.
Troller clinched the match at No. 5 singles, winning 6-2, 6-0.
"It was great to win," Rohan said. "I am very proud of the way these guys and how they conducted themselves both on and off the court all weekend. I can't think of a better group of people to represent Ohio Northern."

" We've reported on fans taking DOTS-inspired wedding photos, traveling to exotic filming locations, and even skipping shopping online to concentrate on the drama. And now, a Chinese man has tried to copy Jin Goo's car kiss, but with a very unlucky result. We have a photo of the unfortunate aftermath. Take a look.
According to a Chinese news report, a man was driving with his girlfriend in the car when he suddenly leaned over to kiss her. Unfortunately, he crashed his car into a tree and ended up with 5 stitches in his head. Why did he do it?
Apparently it's DOTS Fever at work! According to the Nanjing Transportation Police, who posted the photo to Weibo social media, the unlucky man's girlfriend was watching Jin Goo and Kim Ji Won's car kiss at the time, and he was suddenly inspired to make the disastrous move. His car veered off and ended up crashing.
Here's how Jin Goo did it in episode 13:
Obviously, Alpha Team "Wolf" Chief Master Sergeant Seo doesn't fail at anything!
Chinese netizens aren't sympathetic at all toward the injured driver, and have commented, "It's all lies in a drama," and "Jin Goo was on automatic pilot."
Too bad for the romantic driver, but the car kiss has helped Hyundai Motor receive an increased interest in its Genesis sedan that can drive by itself with lane-keeping and cruise-control functions.
How about you? Do you have DOTS Fever? Have you done anything special because of Descendants of the Sun?

Tensions Rising On Grey's Anatomy Set?Steve Marsi at . Comments
Maybe. Take this gossip with a grain of salt, since it comes through MSNBC via Star Magazine. But rumor has it that the spinoff of the series that will feature actress Dr. Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh) has left other cast members feeling blindsided and short-changed.
"The rest of the cast seemed instantly resentful of [Walsh]," a source told Star. "They each thought they'd be the one chosen to get their own show, and now they're giving Kate the cold shoulder."
The source adds that Grey's Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo "seemed particularly peeved because she felt that, as the star, she should have been consulted."
The spinoff news comes just as the controversy regarding fellow cast member Isaiah Washington's inappropriate remarks began to subside.
"Things had finally settled down and now everyone's disgruntled again," the source says.
We don't know how true any of this is. But what we do know, as we reported yesterday, is that a two-hour episode of Grey's Anatomy slated for this spring is what opens the door for Addison's departure.

Unexpected side-effect of meditation
Late last year I decided to make a proper go of a daily meditation practice, in order to try and cure or reduce an already fairly mild case of OCD that I'd had for a while. I had tried meditation before, but always got bored and gave up quickly. This time I stuck with it: half an hour every morning of concentrating on my breathing and bringing my mind back to my breath when it wandered – which was a lot.
It didn't do much for the OCD. It did, however, do something else: it took away my appetite for chocolate. At some point, I can't remember when, I not only stopped wanting to eat chocolate but felt vaguely queasy at the thought of it. Ditto all other candy. I hasten to add that I didn't lose my appetite for cookies, cake (including chocolate cake), or desserts in general; just the highly concentrated sugar hits of chocolate and candy.
This effect was entirely unexpected. I wasn't a chocoholic beforehand, but I certainly liked chocolate and had some most days – usually a couple of mini bars. I didn't see this as a good habit, and I'm not complaining about losing it, but as I said, I was looking to change something else.
I gave up the meditation after two or three months, but my appetite for chocolate hasn't come back. I'm currently staying with my parents, with access to the chocolates in their pantry. I haven't even felt tempted.
I have no idea what actually happened. I figure something must have altered in my brain – but what, I don't know.
Anyway, just putting this out there as an anecdote. Would be interested to know if others have had similar experiences. I know that meditation and spiritual practices can cause people to lose interest in meat, but I haven't heard of it happening with chocolate!

Hurricane Pro has been in the App Store since the beginning. For many in the emergency management and response community, it was a staple, and could be counted on to have the latest data whenever a storm comes close. With the updates in technology, and many changes to the App Store eco center, it has become increasingly difficult to maintain the stellar app we created so many years ago, which has always been a labor of love. Because we know that our customers use the information in our app to make sound judgements on their evacuation plans, and more, we have decided the best course of action is to discontinue the product, rather than take the chance of the information being slow or incorrect, and creating the possibility of a bad evacuation or safety decision. This was not a decision made lightly, however it is the right decision for the safety of our customers and their families.
Thank you for 10 great years of tracking the storms with us.
Hurricane Pro and Hurricane HD have been discontinued, as of the end of the 2017 Atlantic Hurricane Season.

Well, what do you know? Look at that. It's a 4G netbook, courtesy of Sprint and Dell! Who'd have thought?
In everything but radio capabilities, the netbook — namely, the Inspiron Mini 10 — is a standard affair. It has a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 CPU, 1GB of RAM, Intel GMA 3150 graphics, a 250GB hard drive and a 10.1-inch widescreen display at 1024×600. It runs Windows 7 Starter Edition and comes with the usual gaggle of USB ports, along with 802.11 b/g/n WiFi. On the other hand, it can leverage high-speed WiMAX when it's available, and EVDO Rev. A when it isn't.
Sprint and Dell have also announced another Inspiron-branded 4G laptop, the Inspiron 11z. It has a 1.20GHz Intel Core i3-330UM processor, 2GB of RAM and a 250GB hard-drive, and runs an 11.6-inch, 1,366 x 768 display off Intel HM57 graphics. I'm not really sure if it qualifies as a netbook with a Core iX CPU, but with a 6-cell battery good for up to 6.5 hours and a 11.6-inch display, I'd say it's pretty close.
So how much will these 4G netbooks cost? The Inspiron Mini 10 will be free after a $100 mail-in rebate from October 31st, while the Inspiron 11z will be just $149.99 after a mail-in rebate from November 14th. You'll need to agree to a two year 4G contract, though, to get either machine.

Legal Status
Document Details
Published Document
Food and Drug Administration, HHS.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined the regulatory review period for XOLAIR and is publishing this notice of that determination as required by law. FDA has made the determination because of the submission of an application to the Director of Patents and Trademarks, Department of Commerce, for the extension of a patent which claims that human biological product.
Submit written comments and petitions to the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852. Submit electronic comments to http://www.fda.gov/dockets/ecomments.Start Further Info
Claudia V. Grillo, Office of Regulatory Policy (HFD-013), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 240-453-6681.End Further Info End Preamble Start Supplemental Information
The Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (Public Law 98-417) and the Generic Animal Drug and Patent Term Restoration Act (Public Law 100-670) generally provide that a patent may be extended for a period of up to 5 years so long as the patented item (human drug product, animal drug product, medical device, food additive, or color additive) was subject to regulatory review by FDA before the item was marketed. Under these acts, a product's regulatory review period forms the basis for determining the amount of extension an applicant may receive.
A regulatory review period consists of two periods of time: A testing phase and an approval phase. For human biological products, the testing phase begins when the exemption to permit the clinical investigations of the biological product becomes effective and runs until the approval phase begins. The approval phase starts with the initial submission of an application to market the human biological product and continues until FDA grants permission to market the biological product. Although only a portion of a regulatory review period may count toward the actual amount of extension that the Director of Patents and Trademarks may award (for example, half the testing phase must be subtracted as well as any time that may have occurred before the patent was issued), FDA's determination of the length of a regulatory review period for a human biological product will include all of the testing phase and approval phase as specified in 35 U.S.C. 156(g)(1)(B).
FDA recently approved for marketing the human biological product XOLAIR (omalizumab). XOLAIR is indicated for adults and adolescents (12 years of age and above) with moderate to severe persistent asthma who have a positive Start Printed Page 4921skin test or in vitro reactivity to a perennial aeroallergen and whose symptoms are inadequately controlled by inhaled corticosteroids. Subsequent to this approval, the Patent and Trademark Office received a patent term restoration application for XOLAIR (U.S. Patent No. 6,267,958) from Genentech, and the Patent and Trademark Office requested FDA's assistance in determining this patent's eligibility for patent term restoration. In a letter dated April 8, 2005, FDA advised the Patent and Trademark Office that this human biological product had undergone a regulatory review period and that the approval of XOLAIR represented the first permitted commercial marketing or use of the product. Shortly thereafter, the Patent and Trademark Office requested that FDA determine the product's regulatory review period.
FDA has determined that the applicable regulatory review period for XOLAIR is 3,440 days. Of this time, 2,329 days occurred during the testing phase of the regulatory review period, while 1,111 days occurred during the approval phase. These periods of time were derived from the following dates:
1. The date an exemption under section 505(i) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(i)) became effective: January 20, 1994. FDA has verified the applicant's claim that the date the investigational new drug application became effective was on January 20, 1994.
2. The date the application was initially submitted with respect to the human biological product under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act: June 5, 2000. The applicant claims June 2, 2000, as the date the product license application (BLA) for XOLAIR (BLA 103976/0) was initially submitted. However, FDA records indicate that BLA 103976/0 was submitted on June 5, 2000.
3. The date the application was approved: June 20, 2003. FDA has verified the applicant's claim that BLA 103976/0 was approved on June 20, 2003.
This determination of the regulatory review period establishes the maximum potential length of a patent extension. However, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office applies several statutory limitations in its calculations of the actual period for patent extension. In its application for patent extension, this applicant seeks 463 days of patent term extension.
Anyone with knowledge that any of the dates as published are incorrect may submit to the Division of Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES) written or electronic comments and ask for a redetermination by March 31, 2006. Furthermore, any interested person may petition FDA for a determination regarding whether the applicant for extension acted with due diligence during the regulatory review period by July 31, 2006. To meet its burden, the petition must contain sufficient facts to merit an FDA investigation. (See H. Rept. 857, part 1, 98th Cong., 2d sess., pp. 41-42, 1984.) Petitions should be in the format specified in 21 CFR 10.30.
Comments and petitions should be submitted to the Division of Dockets Management. Three copies of any mailed information are to be submitted, except that individuals may submit one copy. Comments are to be identified with the docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document. Comments and petitions may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.Start Signature
Dated: January 6, 2006.

Phil Adler classified everyone he knew in high school in one of two categories.
"Either you played sports or you didn't," said Adler, who was a two-sport athlete beginning in 1989 at Wheaton Central High School (now Wheaton-Warrenville South).
Phil Adler classified everyone he knew in high school in one of two categories.
"Either you played sports or you didn't," said Adler, who was a two-sport athlete beginning in 1989 at Wheaton Central High School (now Wheaton-Warrenville South).
"And the people who didn't play sports. . ." Adler continued, "I just couldn't understand why they wouldn't want to compete."
His hard-nosed attitude was evident every time he slipped on the shoulder pads, clamped on the helmet and butted heads with opposing defenses on the football field. He was an integral part of the Tiger squads that reached state championship games in 1991 and 1992 and claimed the school's first title in '92 in one of the most memorable finals in Illinois playoff history.
It was also this intense will and desire that helped Adler survive a near-fatal bout two years ago with Crohn's disease, which causes inflammation in the intestinal lining.
The illness first afflicted Adler on Halloween during the end of his second season at the College of DuPage, forcing him to miss the team's appearance in the Midwest Bowl. Adler eventually had his large intestine removed and now wears a colostomy bag.
For most, an athletic career wouldn't even be an option after the setback. But Adler not only recently began his second season of wrestling at the University of Dubuque, he also played football his junior year.
"I was talking to schools like Eastern Illinois and Western Illinois during my second year at DuPage, and I was actually thinking I could continue my career somewhere at the professional level," said Adler, who moved to fullback and became an accomplished pass receiver in college. "When I became ill, though, my weight dropped down to 145 and most of the schools backed away, because you can't be much of a fullback at 145 pounds.
"The University of Dubuque was the only school that really gave me a chance. There was never a risk for me to continue playing because if there was, I would have stopped."
Once Adler started playing again, he gained back all of the weight he had lost and then some. But he wasn't in the same condition as he was at Wheaton South and DuPage.
"That's pretty much why I didn't play (football) my senior year, just taking a year off to get back into shape," said Adler, who will wrestle as a 190-pounder this season. "The first thing to go when I was sick was my conditioning, and I figured if I couldn't play at the same level I once was at, I needed to step away and try to get back to that point."
Just ask the Joliet Catholic defenders from the 1992 squad about Adler's level of play.
They were the ones Adler ran over and around for 185 yards in Wheaton South's 40-34 double-overtime victory in the 1992 Class 5A title game. Adler scored both of his team's touchdowns in the extra sessions, including a memorable game-winner.
"I broke a tackle, spun off another and ended up breaking about five tackles before I got into the end zone," said Adler, who rushed for more than 2,000 yards and scored 28 touchdowns during his senior season. "It was a crazy feeling. I knew we would have won the state title, but it was almost like everything was happening in slow motion. I was in a daze."
"Looking back, I should have given Phil the ball more than I did in that game," said Wheaton-Warrenville South coach John Thorne, whose present team plays Stevenson Saturday for a berth in its second straight 6A championship game. "He was an exceptional competitor, but he was also an exceptional person. I remember how tough it was to see him look so weak when he was sick, but he always had a positive attitude. He never acted like anything was wrong."
Thorne stood by his former player during his illness. Adler's physical problems began with what he thought were stomach cramps, and led to him spending two months shuttling between Central DuPage and University of Chicago Hospitals.
During the fight, Adler, whose illness is now under control, picked up a few valuable lessons.
"Before this happened, sports meant everything to me," said Adler. "Now, sports still mean a great deal to me, but I know there's more to life. I really stop and look at it all."

IHS iSuppli has torn down Apple's latest tablet, the iPad Mini and has found that parts in it cost at least $188 to build and put together. That means for the base model of the iPad Mini, Apple is raking in around $141 in profit, which means Apple is making a tidy sum off of the sale of each tablet. In contrast, Google's Nexus 7 cost $184 to build, which the company then sells for $199 – which means that the search giant is almost selling the device at cost to try and entice more people to buy content off of the Google Play store. The teardown also revealed a couple of interesting tidbits about the iPad Mini: the display of the device is made by LG, and even though Apple is currently embroiled in a bitter legal battle with Samsung, the Korean company is still the chief supplier of the chips that go into an iPad Mini.

3 sites that allow you to watch your favorite movies on-demand, whenever and wherever you want for free.
In the age of mobile tablets and smartphones, watching movies online has never been in greater demand, and thanks to innovation, the number of sites offering free video content has never been greater.
Now I've previously mentioned where to watch free movies on-demand in the aptly titled "Watch Tons of Your Favorite Movies On-Demand for FREE!", but this guide names several sites not listed in that article, and ones arguably better in terms of selection and quality.
The first is probably my favorite – Crackle.
1. Crackle
Crackle has a stunning selection of both movies AND TV shows that is guaranteed to have something that please everyone. From the 3 Stooges to movies like "30 Days of Night," Crackle has wide variety of stuff to watch.
2. Flixster
Flixster doesn't have nearly the selection that Crackle does, but it does have FREE MOVIES along with some free TV shows as well.
3. Project- Free TV
Don't be fooled by the name, for in addition to tons of on-demand TV shows it also has tons of on-demand movie titles available to watch movies on-demand as well.
You can search for movies to watch by genre, year, or title.
It's that easy.
And if you STILL can't find a movie to watch you can always download whichever one you want (even if it's still in theaters) by using BitTorrent and a public or private tracker of your choosing.
Use the guide "How to Download Stuff with BitTorrent" to find out how.
Stay tuned.

We meet on Tuesdays from 7.30pm:
INTERMEDIATE For the first 50 minutes the intermediate's or people who know the basics in most dances, concentrate on a particular dance chosen every month, rotating through Ballroom and Latin dances.
BEGINNERS Everyone welcome! For 50 minutes beginners have the opportunity to learn the basics in a number of dances. The improvers stay on for that class to help or to learn the basics in a new dance.
SOCIAL We end the evening with general dancing or we learn a new sequence dance. No previous experience is necessary and you don't need to bring a partner.

campus is safe, you just have to be moderately responsible about your things and pick after yourself. like everywhere there are people who will steal from you, so protect your belongings, dont run your mouth about what you have and dont be careless. as far as physical safety. its fairmont. safe if you dont go looking for trouble, and if you just keep your wits.
Greek Life
there are a few frats of campus tbi tke another one that i cant think of as well as sororities
Great for these types of students
types of students; i want to be away from home but not too far i want to relax and not be caught up like i would at someplace like wvu i am looking for something relatively affordable and that i can just go i like meeting new people, and having a variety of friends and class mates im independent and dont need people riding me about what i do and when
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
painting the bell in the center of campus, usually only tagged by frats and organizations but its a new color often every day to every couple of days.
Bang for the buck
for the price you pay, the school is pretty spot on. its very decent visually, as well as administratively and in other ways. this is the embodiment of the want a nice place to go thats not home but still depend on fafsa starter pack.
What to do for fun
fun is when you...fun is...kinda...sorta like... so basically fun at fairmont/ pierpont is in interaction. when i was staying on campus, large scale video game matches, lots of food hoarding, big trips to walmart, wendys, even around the surrounding area or chilling on campus was fun. fun is friends, its hanging out on lazy weekends and staying up all night. its the occasional party, to get your blood moving, fun is the memories!
Food and Dining
i wish i can put .5 stars in this category. the dining is 4-5 stars, great sized and accommodating space for students of all interest and type. balcony, window views of campus, large rows and comfy seats. the food is good, with alot of character and mainstays such as pizza, ice cream, and a morning omelet. the only lacking detail is sometimes things can get a bit routine, a problem fixed when the weather is warm with all types of special menues and programs. if the cafeteria isnt quite your style, theres a small goldmine in the shops that take your points from the meal card. be forewarned, you will run out rather quick of those points if you dont watch it, so just try to find a balance.
Dorm Life
dorm life is the highlight of the evening. large communities of folks, watching college and pro sports, lots of movies and streaming, heated video game sessions, and also plenty of warm atmosphere to study, talk, meet, and the occasional meetings from resident life which sometimes include their own activities. this may not be a party school, or any high caliber frat location, but people do get together. when i attended everyone knew each-other by name or face and all interacted, protected and helped each-other.
Academic Rigor
course work is not very inherently difficult on its own. the trick is you have to be on task, its way easy to fall behind because its not a "princeton" and isn't pretending to be. the rigor is good enough to bring reward to your handwork, that being said if you do not work hard there isn't any free passes, or throwaways.
Tips for prospective students
know why you are coming to this particular school before you step foot here. what makes pierpont/ fairmont special in your mind? be independent, nobody here will be pressing about things you need to do, thats where you come in. be honest, confident, and about your work and you will be a shining star.
In three sentences
its a very independent atmosphere, lots of people from outside fairmont, and a good number of first time west virginia folks from the dc metro area. everything you see is exactly what you will get, with few surprises. the communities on campus are essentially the life blood, find your spot rather you are a stay around home type, club type, frat or other, there is usually a few groups to accommodate your style.

Keep up with school work because professors aren't going to check in with you or force you to go to class.

Pierpont is not a very one on one school & will not check in on students. They seem to change academic advisers all the time. It's not a very good college but it's smaller and more affordable.

We have our share of situations but I honestly think the worst I've heard of lately has been an attempted burglary and some vandalism. We don't have stuff like stabbings, shootings or rapes. We have college/campus security and the city & state police are not far from campus.
Clubs and Activities
If you have an interest, there is a club for you. We have everything from various on-campus bible studies to a Gay and Lesbian Student support group
Great for these types of students
Great for small town students or any student who wants a small town atmosphere
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
There is a bell that has been on campus for several years and the sororities & fraternities take turns painting and decorating the bell to express school spirit. It is an old oil barge bell called the Victory Bell and the City of Fairmont presented it to Fairmont State College in 1940.
Bang for the buck
Fairmont State University and Pierpont Community & Technical College is perfect for me. They are so flexible with classes by offering day, evening, night and weekend classes, as well as on-line courses. The staff are wonderful. The atmosphere is awesome. It's a great place to learn and grow!!
What to do for fun
The school is not far from the interstate; only 15-20 minutes from either Morgantown or Clarksburg so there is lots to do!! Within Fairmont you have shopping, movies, close to waterway with boating and jet skiing, and the Three Rivers Festival. In Clarksburg you have the Italian Heritage Festival, shopping, movies, specialty shops, dining, dancing, clubs/bars. In Morgantown there are the same things as well as WVU Football/Basketball, etc; concerts; plays & art.
Food and Dining
There is a full cafeteria in the student (Falcon) center on the third floor. There is also a fast food establishment on the second floor, as well as an ice cream parlor. We also have (on the second floor of the student center) a small convenience type store called The Nickel. There you can find hot and ready, quick-grab food items for breakfast, lunch and dinner; a variety of drinks (soda, water, milk, juice); snack foods; and made to order food items. There are also restaurants, pizza places, and student cafes/bars close by.
Dorm Life
I have always lived off campus so I really can't be a good judge of the dorms.
Academic Rigor
While there are some professors that make things pretty easy, a large majority of them try to challenge the students, make them learn and genuinely care about the success of the students. They don't just want you to pass the class, they also want you to succeed!!!
Tips for prospective students
Merely researching the school on line is not enough. You have to visit the campus and experience the down to earth atmosphere and genuine compassion of fellow students and campus staff to get the full picture.
In three sentences
Very happy with the school, staff, and opportunity here!! It's close to home, the campus is a close-knit atmosphere, and classes are relatively small. You are able to be a person with a name and get help from professors when you need it!!

The Last Turn - Epilogue and Afterword
By pirateaba Comments (50) (Tipped by 55 people!)
Turing of Turning sat in his throne room and tried to look regal. It was harder than it seemed, especially because the book he'd found wasn't helping much. The King Slately might have been a great ruler for all Turing knew, but he was a bit pompous when it came to things like ceremony.
Not that there were many units to see him in all of his regalness of course. Counting Turing himself, there were only eight units in the city – three stabbers, two pikers, and two archers.
It seemed like a waste to make them stand guard duty in the throne room, so Turing had let them all play games in the lounge section of the castle. He hadn't wanted any of them in the city at all, but Protheana had insisted. As Chief Warlord, she couldn't go out on expeditions without the barest protection for Turing and eight was the lowest number he'd been able to get her to settle on.
Still, Turing worried that she would be understaffed with three archers and a single Stabber and Piker each. But she'd been chomping at the bit waiting for them to pop and so against his better judgment he'd let her go off.
It was still incredible to Turing even twenty turns after the fire that he had a Level 13 Warlord in his service. Occasionally he had to pinch himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming. And if he didn't, Protheana would and her pinches hurt.
That turn, Turing had walked across an inferno hex to rescue her. Protheana had seen the entire thing, including the trick with the hourglass. It turned out that though she'd been incapacitated, Protheana had been awake the entire time, just unable to move. And when he'd carried her out of the city she had been freed.
Perhaps it wasn't breaking her oath in the strictest sense. After all, Protheana hadn't left the city of her own volition—more incapacitated and carried by Turing. But it was enough for Fate and the spell cast upon her. The magic had left Protheana's body the instant Turing crossed hexes. It had stolen away, taking Protheana's chains of endless turns with them. And her Loyalty too, as it turned out.
She'd Turned to Turing's side the instant he'd become Ruler. She couldn't bear to stay with Reapin after what they'd done to her first side and the way they'd treated her, she claimed. And as to why she hadn't become a Barbarian—well, she'd just elbowed Turing hard enough for him to lose a hit.
Now that she was his Chief Warlord, a lot of the strategy he left in her hands. Of course he still had his own unique ideas – most of which she shot down over breakfast. But they were working together, the two of them. It was still a rocky relationship at times, but they were talking every turn and unlike Gout and Turing, there was no bridge of respect or uncertainty to be crossed.
Protheana's strategy for the newly formed and impoverished side of Turning was simple. She'd ordered Turing to get the city up to a Level 2 as soon as possible and she was going on short expeditions to harvest provisions every day now, letting the units she brought along level as much as possible.
Her grand strategy for the side was to get an army put together and start conquering the cities she'd swept through as fast as possible. They'd all been razed, so according to Protheana if they got to them first, they stood a good chance of occupying at least twenty cities before they ran up against another side.
Protheana had a different viewpoint than Turing did as Chief Warlord. It was all about Levels, but Protheana appreciated good tactics and specials too. To that end she'd decided to pop as many Warlords as it took until she got a few Casters.
She also wanted to explore as many deep forest hexes as possible around the capital. She told Turing that if she found a Dwagon she was fairly confident she could tame it. And even if she couldn't, she claimed she could just incapacitate it and try again another turn.
She wanted a lot of things, and she was full of ideas. Apparently, Reapin had had a longstanding contract with their Natural Allies – a bunch of bug-like creatures Protheana absolutely hated. Now that she could choose, Protheana had decided she wanted either a side with huge numbers like Gobwins or Marbits, or a bunch of heavy hitters and unique specials like Witches or Daemons.
Turing had suggested one of the Elf tribes only to have his idea stomped on. Protheana wasn't a fan of any Elf tribe, and she knew them all.
"'F I want a buncha archers or second-rate infantry I'd pop them instead. The only ones with intrestin' specials and some decent fightin' moves are the Juggle Elves and they're disgusting."
He'd argued a bit, but mostly Turing was happy to let Protheana take charge. And she was happy. She'd begun to smile a lot more, and whenever she returned to the city Turing made sure to have a feast set out for her.
…She'd ordered him to stop wasting provisions. But this time Turing had set up a small table for two in the library with a cask of wine and a pile of books. He still hadn't stopped reading stories for her. But now, instead of him reading stories just to Protheana, he ended up reading stories to his entire small side every night.
It was a bit of joy. And though Turing's heart still hurt at times and he still slept the guest quarters rather than in his room, he was happy. Not deliriously happy, but contentedly happy, enough so that he thought it was worth living for the moment.
That was all. Turing smiled as he sensed Protheana and his small band of newly Level 3 units returning to the city.
Maybe Protheana would join him, or maybe Turing would eat alone. It didn't really matter. She was surprisingly shy about anything not related to croaking people. But Turing could wait. He could wait for as many turns as it took.
He had time.
Hey there, this is pirateaba. If you've made it this far, thanks for reading! I really don't know what to say. Uh, sorry about all the spelling errors and grammatical mistakes? I've got some people who proofread what I write, but I'm well aware that it's impossible to catch everything, especially with how I write and then post without much editing time.
But hey, if you got this far maybe you can put up with that? I'll work on it, I promise. But for now, let's talk about Erfword and The Last Turn.
I'm a big fan of Erfworld, and I've had this story in my heart for the last year. But I never wrote it. Ironically, the reason I did write it was to attract some attention to my other ongoing web serial The Wandering Inn. But I truly did want to write this story.
I know it's not the most canonical and it definitely got long (although not as long as some of the other stories on this site!), which wore me down near the end. That's why this last chapter could have been a two-parter but I wanted to finish it up. Ideally it would have been done around Christmas, but I was never good with deadlines like that.
Sorry as well if you thought this was going to be a tragedy. It definitely could have been. Turing could have ended the turn and been cut down, or ended his own life to set Protheana free. But I had a happy ending in mind when I wrote the story, and although drama would dictate Turing dies, I like happy endings.
…Whew. Tired. I've been writing the last chapter and epilogue for around 6 hours straight now. So forgive me if I miss a few points I wanted to bring up. But let's just say this: I think Erfworld is great. I think stories are great. Regardless of how people like it, I think fanfiction is great if done well. It's not on par with the actual story, but it's like a sundae. You can eat it and you might feel sick and puke it up, but sometimes sundaes are good. Just eat actual food as well.
If you've liked reading my story so far, I'd hope that you checked out The Wandering Inn which is entirely my creation. I'm hoping to become a self-employed author someday with the money I earn from Patreon, and stories like this are the first step to improving and letting people know I exist. If I might ask a favor from all of you, if you tell a friend or know of a group of people who might like either this story or The Wandering Inn, please, tactfully, let them know about it.
Again, sorry for the self-promotional stuff, but feel free to ignore that part if you want. Honestly, I'm just grateful anyone reads what I write and hope you all enjoyed it. For Turing and his overpowered Warlady, I hope they live a long life.
But this is Erfworld. Who knows what'll happen? I'm not planning on writing a sequel to this anytime soon by the way.
Thanks for reading,
(NOTE: User was awarded 75 shmuckers for this story. -Rob)
Thank you for writing such an amazing story. You are a fantastic writer and I always look forward to reading your next installments, both of this story and the wandering inn. I hope you never stop writing.
This is a wonderful story, one of the best I've ever read here. I cared about the characters, especially Gout and Protheana, and the central conceit is so clever. Bravo!
And thanks!
Fantastic story, (wandering inn is great too),
it was an interesting perspective and worked well.
well done and keep up the great writing.
I loved the story, and I am really glad that there was a happy ending.
Yes, it could have ended with i being cut down.. But somehow. This ending feels right. It feels compleet this way.
Also, (In my opinion) you don't have to excuus yourself for the "promotional"stuff. Infact. I'm really glad that you did!
I would have never found "The Wandering Inn" story otherwise, and I'm really glad I did.
I love it, read averything in a day and am eagerly awating new installments.
All in all, what I want to say is: "Thank you for your story, And please keep suprising us in the future".
Ps. I don't have any proof readers, so the above text is probably a mess :p
I also only found your work through this work, so good job. You've got an avid fan out of it. Keep writing!
Thank you for covering emotions related to people who can't/won't express them without having that be a major outlier.
Cool story, bro! Stand and be tipped. ;-)
Definitely will check out your original story when time permits.
Regarding spelling errors, of which there are a few, in some fandoms it is usual that fanfic authors act as beta readers to each other: idea-bouncing , proof correction, continuity checks, characterization consistency, fandom compliance... it would be great if some of the authors around here would build such kind of community, based on their mutual need to express themselves as writers and their love of Erfworld.
Great work, and thanks for sharing.
I have the distinct feeling that pirateaba is in fact a sis and not a bro. I could be wrong of course.
It is not really relevant, is it? Unless she explicitly states that she doesn't wish to be my bro, which I will henceforth respect. Until then, though...
A positive side of virtual relationships is that you get rid of any prejudice. Pirateaba is no more, but no less than an internet entity who wrote a story that I enjoyed, and that is awesome enough for me. In real life she could be a soccer mom, a zit-ridden prepubescent male teenager, a new kind of AI or friggin' Donald Trump and it shouldn't really matter. It is still a cool story. ;-)
I'm kind of shielding my eyes from all of the comments above and the entry itself. I've been meaning to read The Last turn for a while now, but in the mean time I just wanted to say "Congratulations!" It takes a lot of dedication to make and finish a multi part story, and that should always be recognized, for which I salute you.
Hey everyone, thanks so much for the comments! I'm really glad all of you liked my story, and I'm glad so many of you gave The Wandering Inn a shot and liked it!
Also, thanks for the warm wishes Spicymancer! It's always good to hear from another author, and I salute you in turn for your substantially longer saga!
Finally, @cu and @bandaid, I'm okay with you calling me bro or sis or anything you want. I'm not picky. I have an actual gender of course, but would it be better if you knew what it was or is mystery good? For that matter, how many people think I'm a bro and how many think I'm a sis? I need to do some polling if I ever get a lot of readers just for statistical fun.
...Regardless, I'm glad you've all commented and read my story. I might not be writing here for a while, but I hope The Wandering Inn continues for at least another year. Have a great 2017 everyone!
Thank you for this story.
It is vibrant and gives a detailed sensible view into how erfworld free will and nature of time could work.
Also started and got caught up on Wandering Inn after this series. For both: well done! A LOT of fun reading there!
Re: gender - mystery is good. :) Good story writing means you can do both genders and have it not be clear which is your "native"!
Fantastic. Thank you for writing this story. After most updates I thought, well, this is it. All done. And then it just kept going. Marvelous.
A great story which I enjoyed. thank you for writing it. I will check out the wandering inn as well. Sorry I can't support you, with shmuckers or patreon, as I donate all my excess money to the GiveWell charity where it can do the most good. Still, I wanted to thank you for the work anyways.
Thank you so much for everything you put into this story. I read the whole thing in the last few days. Like Miya Yam, this story is unique. You explored passion, desperation, pain, loyalty, madness, and especially that greatest constant of all - time. Powerful stuff, tremendous writing. I am DEFINITELY going to check out your other work.
I cannot disagree with you more about describing your work as a sundae that could make someone puke. It's excellent, it compares well to any other Erfwork, including cannon. This was a story without any cheap gimmicks, any trick twists, but it was consistently surprising. I could never see what was coming next. I was sure that one of them was going to die at the end. That made the happy ending not cheap at all. Sometimes a tragedy has a happy ending after all.
Have a (admittedly small) tip.
Keep writing.
An absolutely mesmerizing experience, bravo, and tomorrow after I recover from the satisfaction of reading this amazingly crafted story in a single sitting, you will have another reader of your Wandering Inn. Seriously, I can not remember the last time a story captured me so much that I forgot to do other things I was supposed to be doing, so bravo with that too =3
I was lucky enough to find this once it was finished, so I could read it all in one go. So I did.
Crying now. Have been, on and off, as I read.
Thank you.
I'm up way too late, to finish this. I got to binge read it too, like St Clair. I count myself lucky.
Bravo, bravo. Your pictures built of words are tempestuous frescoes that grip the mind and -knead-.
I binged this all in one go. Amazing. It's 1:30 in the morning and I have to be out to work at 6, but this was totally worth it.
Great story! I think the hardest part for Erfworld stories is making the story interesting that doesn't focus on some sort of caster. I always found warlords themselves to be on the bland side, but you figured our how to make them compelling.
I appreciate the references to Erfworld canon without trying to be a part of them. Boo on stories that actually have main characters from the comic in them. :p

NEW YORK — The National Basketball Association draft belonged to the centers Tuesday. Seven centers, six of them 7-footers, were among the first 17 players taken. Four more centers were among the first eight selections on the second round.
The rush for big men began with Patrick Ewing, the three-time all-American from Georgetown and the prize of the draft. It took commissioner David Stern little more than one minute to make official what has been known for more than a month since the Knicks won the lottery.

The UNESCO Chair in Life Cycle and Climate Change, an association specialised in life-cycle assessment (LCA) and carbon footprint in sectors such as energy, waste or sustainable construction, warmly invites the Covenant community to participate in a survey on Life Cycle Sustainability Assessments of cities.
Cities are becoming increasingly important in managing key issues such as water scarcity and transitioning to new economic models - i.e. circular economy. The use and application of the LCA approach is gaining ground across Europe, and is considered to be a useful tool in achieving the 11th goal of the UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs): Sustainable Cities and Communities.
The current UNESCO survey wants to set the basis for Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment of cities. A key issue of this assessment is the need to set which activities (and related impacts) should be attributed to each city, in order to distribute responsibility and accountability for related externalities. The survey also aims to gather feedback from Covenant of Mayors signatory cities on how cities' boundaries should be defined in this regard, and how he impacts of activities that take place in different geographic locations can be allocated.
The UNESCO survey only has 13 questions, and takes 10 minutes to answer. You can answer it under the following link
