Anyone with reports of aggressive wild animals is asked to contact Colorado Parks and Wildlife between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. at 303-291-7227, or, if it is after hours, to call the Colorado State Patrol at 303-239-4501, and the report will be forwarded to wildlife personnel. Such reports also may be phoned in to the Boulder Police Department's non-emergency number, 303-441-3333.
Foot patrols by open space rangers are being stepped up in areas near the Boulder Creek Path in east Boulder in the wake of a Saturday attack in which a jogger was bitten in the calf by a coyote.
Saturday's incident came on the heels of two prior aggressive coyote reports in the same area, one of which featured a coyote lunging aggressively at the feet of a commuting cyclist.
"We're definitely talking with Boulder, and trying to figure out what we want to do out in that area," said Jennifer Churchill, spokeswoman for Colorado Parks and Wildlife. "It's certainly a concern to us that we have aggression out there by a coyote or coyotes.
"We will be looking into this, and figuring out what will be best for the citizens of Boulder."
Val Matheson, Boulder's urban wildlife conservation coordinator, said the biting incident occurred between 10:30 and 10:50 a.m. Saturday, on the Skunk Creek Trail.
An adult woman was jogging in the area of the University of Colorado Research Park, just south of the Boulder Creek Path, east of 30th Street and just west of Foothills Parkway, when she spotted a coyote with its prey, according to Matheson.
"While she was looking at it, a second coyote came close to her from behind. She wasn't (initially) aware of that second one," Matheson said.
When the jogger realized there was a second coyote behind her, she first yelled and waved her arms — behavior that wildlife experts recommend.
Then, she did something that is not recommended. She turned and ran.
"I think turning your back and running away is a bad idea, because all the bites we've had have been in the back of the calf, and it seems like turning around and running is allowing an opportunity" for the animal to attack, Matheson said.
The woman initially felt a nipping at her heels, then the sudden sharp pain of a bite to her calf. It was only after a man who was in the area came to the jogger's assistance that the two were able to chase the aggressive coyote away. She was treated later that morning at Boulder Community Hospital, Matheson said, and the hospital in turn made a report to a city Open Space and Mountain Parks ranger.
Recent aggression
Two prior incidents occurred just east of where Saturday's biting took place.
On the morning of Dec. 24, a woman walking her friend's standard poodle was menaced by a coyote on the Boulder Creek Path, just west of 55th Street. It took swats from a stick the woman grabbed, and the intervention of her dog, to chase that coyote away.
That was followed by an episode Dec. 27, when a cyclist was chased and almost bitten on the Boulder Creek Path, while cycling on the north side of the creek near the 4700 block of Walnut Street.
Devising a plan
A meeting is set for Friday between city personnel and Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff to come up with a specific plan to address the recent series of aggressive coyote reports in a relatively concentrated area.
"I can't say exactly what the next steps will be," Matheson said. "In the past, when a person has been bitten, an officer has destroyed a coyote" behaving aggressively. The most recent example of a problem coyote being put down in that area came in November 2011.
And in the meantime, patrols by city open space rangers have been stepped up in the area, for the purposes both informing the public about the existing danger, and potentially making first-hand observations of any aggressive wildlife behavior.

So you want to add a historical map to Marble. This is great since we want to see lots of historical maps in Marble where the user can browse through space and time. There are lots of very early world maps that are under the public domain. You'll find several on Wikipedia. A pretty comprehensive list of all early world maps is available at:
[| Map List translated via Google Translate]
You can choose a map from that list (or a different place. The map you choose should
Reprojection is necessary to allow Marble to make use of the map. Generally early world maps are available in the following categories.
If you haven't worked on historical maps, we suggest to start with the stereographically projected maps ("A"):
Download the raw file. As an example we start off with this nice map from Jodocus Hondius made in 1595:
This map has a resolution of 3.281 × 2.343 which gives us good details.
We create a directory "hondius1595" and save our raw file "1595_Vera_Totius_Hondius.jpg" there.
We need to crop the two hemispheres and we need to save them in two different files. You can use Krita, Gimp or Photoshop for that. Make use of the "Crop" tool:
You should crop each circle so that the circular outline of the map is preserved:
Some of the maps have a black-white "dashed" degree scale that serves as a circular outline. It's important that the dashed scale gets included as well! This needs to be the case on the "inner" side as well as on the "outer" side. Here is a different example which has the inner side of the scale bar discontinued but we still crop as if it was still there:
Once you finished cropping you need to scale the hemisphere so that height and width have the same amount of pixels. Otherwise the reprojection tool won't work. In our example after cropping the resulting image had 1605x1625 pixels. You will have a very different value of course. For scaling it's important to use a high quality scaling algorithm: choose Cubic or Lanczos3. After scaling the image up the size is 1625x1625 in our example (which again will be different for your images).
When scaling the second hemisphere we make sure that it has the same size as the first hemisphere.
Save the two hemispheres in two different files. Make sure that you choose "PPM" as a file format!
Now we should have the two PPM files of the two hemispheres in our directory (in our example it's "1595_Vera_Totius_Hondius_east.ppm" and "1595_Vera_Totius_Hondius_west.ppm").
If you haven't done so, please download the stereographics conversion tool from here:
File:Stereographic2platecarree lgpl.tar.gz
Create a new directory (e.g. "stereo") and move the tar-ball inside. Inside this directory untar the tarball like this:
tar xvzf Stereographic2platecarree_lgpl.tar.gz
and then start compilation in the konsole inside the directory using:
For convenience you can copy the resulting stereographic2platecarree executable into the directory that contains your map files (in our example that is the "hondius" directory.
Once you've done that you can invoke the executable like this:
./stereographic2platecarree -i 1595_Vera_Totius_Hondius_east.ppm -o 1595_Vera_Totius_Hondius_east_reprojected.ppm
and the tool will the start its work:
Importing PPM '1595_Vera_Totius_Hondius_east.ppm'..
Import done.
Converting projection..
Conversion done.
Exporting PPM '1595_Vera_Totius_Hondius_east_reprojected.ppm'..
Export done.
Once you've done the same for the western hemisphere you are ready for the next step.
If you want to learn more about early world maps then have a look [[3]]

If you find new maps it's always important to check the license. Although ancient maps should usually be under the public domain there are several people who claim copyright on the data due to the image manipulation work they have done as a part of post-processing the scan. No matter whether this is legitimate or not we should respect those claims and look for data that was intended to be published under the public domain (or another free license) and use that.
It's important to note that people like to distribute imagery "free for non-commercial usage". Unfortunately we are not able to use and distribute this data as this would e.g. prohibit most Linux Distributors from distributing our software. So do not use data that is "free for non-commercial use"! It's not suitable for our purposes. If you think that there is a chance that the author might agree to change the license to a less restrictive one then it might be worth to contact him. However pretty often the "non-commercial" wording is provided intentionally this way to allow for a business case of the author.
Maps for Marble need to get provided in plate carrée projection (also referred to as "Equirectangular projection"):
There are morphing tools that will let you morph ancient maps into the desired projection. It doesn't require too many skills. Just some patience and love to detail.
You can use xmorph/gtkmorph to morph the images. It is a old piece of software, and is not actively maintained anymore. However it is mature enough for what we need. It likely is in your distribution's repository, if not you can get it on sourceforge.
To load the image you want to choose into gtkmorph, click on the "Load image" button on the "input image" window. You can adjust where the mesh's position and the image size, it will be easier if you roughly align the mesh with map before you start. But before you click "Apply", you must change the resolution on the resulting image, to do this you need to change the "width" and "height" on the bottom of the "resulting image" window.
Be careful as gtkmorph has a tendency to crop the images, even if the resulting image is the same resolution as the original!!
By default you there are only a few mesh lines, to get more right-click on the field and choose "add horizontal line" and "add vertical line" - there appears to be a hotkey, but that don't seem to work. You can also set the minimum amount of lines to ~50 by editing the libmorph/morph.c line 48 & 49, but that may be going too .
Once you've got it all setup you are gonna start on the more repetitive task, you're gonna need to place the yellow dots so that the grid aligns with the grid on the map.
If you align every second line on the mesh to every line on the map, that will give you some wiggle room if the line between two dots don't really follow the line on the map.
Once you have set all the yellow dots you simply click the 'do warp' button and about a half a minute later you'll hopefully have something like this: Then save the image by clicking on the 'save image' button, the result should be a square map that can be used in Marble. Save the mesh, and export the image, .PPM and .PNG should be a good choice of format.

I was perplexed to read the Butler Eagle's front page story (July 8) about former hotels in Butler. One would think only four hotels served the Butler community as per your article.
"Numerous hotels populated the city throughout the first half of the last century, including the Willard, Park and Atlas hotels. But perhaps the most notable was the Nixon Hotel . . . ."
It was not that notable, nor was it the longest lasting.
You never mentioned the Clinton Hotel, the Bowman Hotel, the Lowry Hotel, the Central Hotel or the Butler Hotel. And the longest established hotel in Butler, with continuous hotel service, the old Monroe Hotel.
The Lyndora Hotel is still operating, and many members of our community celebrated events and dinners and luncheons at these hotels and still do.

BOSTON -- After weeks of trying, five hours remain for federal prosecutors to drive home their case that three former state probation officials rigged hiring in the department to ensure jobs went to applicants with political backing.
In a ruling Monday afternoon, Judge William Young, who originally forecast a two-month trial when he spoke to the jury pool May 5, largely stuck to the time-limits he imposed mid-trial.
"If I gave you everything you have mentioned, I think we'd be here in August," Young said.
Former Probation Commissioner John O'Brien and his two former deputies, Elizabeth Tavares and William Burke III, have pled not guilty to the charges and plan to present a case for the defense that Young said should take three days.
As the trial trundled through spring and into the summer, it has churned up the names of Senate President Therese Murray and Speaker Robert DeLeo – neither of whom appear on the prosecution's witness list, though their names have been mentioned frequently in testimony.
In a filing that referenced expected testimony from a DeLeo aide about the fiscal year 2006 budget exempting the probation department from budgetary meddling by the head of the trial court, prosecutor Robert Fisher said, "[I]t is yet another example of a specific quid pro quo that O'Brien obtained from DeLeo in connection with giving jobs to candidates sponsored by the House leadership."
DeLeo has said he was cleared of charges and denied there was ever the jobs-for-votes arrangements that prosecutors say he was made for his benefit during his ultimately successful run for speaker.
Prosecutors, who have presented varying lists of witnesses they plan to call in their remaining hours, gave what could be a final update as they wrap up their case.
Prosecutor Fred Wyshak said after former Chief Justice of Administration and Management Robert Mulligan completes his testimony the prosecution plans to call Kathleen Petrolati, who received a job running the electronic monitoring program in Springfield and is the wife of Rep. Tom Petrolati.
Wyshak said he plans to call Taunton District Court Chief Justice Kevan Cunningham, who will testify about a promotion given to Joe Dooley, who allegedly had the backing of Sen. Marc Pacheco, a Taunton Democrat.
The prosecutor also said he plans to call Nick DeAngelis, a former probation regional administrator for the western part of the state, where Burke lives and worked.
Wyshak also plans to call someone to speak to the promotion received by Bernard Dow. According to the report of an independent counsel in 2010, Dow "woke up" after years of being passed over for promotions, spoke to Dan Toscano, an aide to former Speaker Salvatore DiMasi and started contributing to DiMasi's political war chest.
Dow told independent counsel Paul Ware that right before his interview in Boston, Toscano told him he would receive an assistant chief probation officer post.
Wyshak said he would call Dow, Toscano, or former Worcester District Court Chief Probation Officer William Mattei.
In addition, Wyshak said he would try to call an official from the Administrative Office of the Trial Court to testify to budgetary numbers.
Prosecutors have previously indicated their intention to call former House Ways and Means Chairman Charley Murphy and two aides to Speaker Robert DeLeo, Toby Morelli and James Kennedy.
"I've said from the get-go how confusing this all is," Young said Monday, at the start of the tenth week of trial. Prosecutors have argued that the challenge of proving a racketeering case is there is a pattern of crimes that make up the charge.
After arguments by prosecutors that the limits would not allow them to complete their case, Young on Monday afternoon increased their time from 4 hours and 45 minutes to 5 hours.
The defense, which had used two fewer hours than the prosecution since the time limits were imposed by Young's last tally, was also given five hours to complete its cross examination of the prosecution witnesses.
Judge in probation trial sticks to time limit
BOSTON -- After weeks of trying, five hours remain for federal prosecutors to drive home their case that three former state probation officials rigged hiring in the department to ensure jobs went to applicants with political backing.

Detective Constable Wayne Green said: "The man stripped off his clothes and ran up and down the aisle completely naked.
"The man clearly thought this was fun and a joke.
"In reality, this was completely unacceptable and inappropriate behaviour which was clearly distressing for many of the passengers on board what was a busy service.

Genistein, a plant-based antioxidant, helped control blood sugar, reduced risk for heart disease and increased bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women, in two new studies.
Researchers from the University of Messina, Italy, recruited 389 otherwise healthy postmenopausal women aged 47 to 67 with low BMD scores (between -1 and -2.5), a condition known as osteopenia. Scores below -2.5 indicate osteoporosis. The women ate a low-soy, low-fat diet for the first four weeks and then took a placebo or 54 mg of genistein per day for the next 24 months. All participants also took daily doses of calcium and vitamin D3.
At the beginning of the study and at 12 and 24 months, researchers measured blood fats, sugar, how well the cells used insulin to convert sugar into energy (insulin sensitivity), and risk factors for heart disease including signs of blood clotting, oxidation and inflammation. After 12 and 24 months, compared to placebo, the genistein group had significantly lower blood sugar levels and increased insulin sensitivity. After 24 months, compared to placebo, the genistein group had more normal clotting and less oxidation. Doctors noted that the genistein group had no change in blood fats. They concluded that genistein plus calcium and vitamin D3, along with a healthy diet, improved blood sugar control and reduced some risk factors for heart disease in postmenopausal women with osteopenia.
In the second study, using the same 389 women in the first study, researchers measured signs of bone forming and breaking down in the blood and urine, how well the pituitary gland regulated calcium, and the thickness of the uterine lining, a cancer-risk factor. At 24 months, the genistein group had increased BMD while the placebo group had lost BMD. Genistein produced no change in thickness of the uterine lining and, compared to placebo, the genistein group had fewer signs of bone breaking down and more signs of bone forming. Doctors noted that some participants reported gastrointestinal side effects and discontinued the study—19% in the genistein group, 8% for placebo—and concluded that genistein improved BMD in postmenopausal women with osteopenia. A 25g serving of soy protein contains about 25-75mg of a combination of isoflavones such as genistein, daidzein and glycitein.

"... Casa Amor Del Sol, about a 12 minute drive to Tulum beach. The location was perfect - between Akumal and Tulum. Our room was beautiful! Wonderful ocean view and lovely Mexican art. The air conditioning was very good, but most nights we did not need it because of the ocean breezes. The room included a refrigerator, flat sceen tv with free movies, Bose CD player and lots of CDs, an ocean view balcony, and a big, private terrace. Most days we would go to Tulum Beach, and come back and refresh ourselves in the very clean pool that was set in the jungle. We usually went to Tulum for dinner. Tulum is a nice little typical Mexican town with many restaurants.After dinner, we would come back and spend time on the rooftop looking at the stars and relaxing in the Jacuzzi. The view from the roof was incredible..."
Best experience ever in the Riviera Maya!

VA moves to change burial rights rules for same-sex spouses
WASHINGTON -- The government has cleared the first burial of a same-sex spouse of a veteran in a national cemetery, but it's far from certain how easy it will be for other gay military couples to win the same benefit.
Who gets buried where is one of the practical decisions that the federal government is grappling with following repeal of the military's don't ask, don't tell policy.
At first glance, Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki's decision to grant burial to a same-sex spouse in Oregon represents a big departure from past federal policy. In 2004, the VA warned the state of Massachusetts that burying the same-sex spouse of a veteran in a state veterans' cemetery could lead to the federal government taking back nearly $12 million in grant money.
Then in 2008, the National Cemetery Association published a directive stating that individuals in same-sex civil unions or marriage are not eligible for burial in a national cemetery or state veterans cemetery that received federal money. Those directives were based on the language of the Defense of Marriage Act, which defines a spouse as a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife. The law is being challenged before the Supreme Court.
Then along came retired Lt. Col. Linda Campbell and her spouse, Nancy Lynchild. Campbell, with help from Oregon officials, pressed the VA to allow Lynchild to be buried at the VA's Willamette National Cemetery.
"My commitment to our country, shown through the service that makes me eligible for burial at Willamette, and the significance of the permanent, lifelong commitment I shared with Nancy, should be sufficient to secure a waiver for her and allow us to be buried together," Campbell wrote to the VA on Jan. 2 shortly after Lynchild's death.
Shinseki has the authority to deem others eligible for burial at a VA cemetery as he believes necessary, regardless of the wording of the Defense of Marriage Act. The VA said in a statement he did not base his decision to grant burial rights based on the couple's marital status but on evidence of a "committed relationship between the individual and the veteran." Also, the department made clear the decision was not intended to create any right or benefit for anyone other than Lynchild.
Still, proponents of the decision said it's a clear indication that individual waiver requests will be taken seriously by Shinseki if other same-sex couples seek to be buried in one of the VA's 131 cemeteries.
"I think you see a lot of the military changing and it makes sense. They are showing every sign of wanting to do what they can do within the bounds of the law," said Gary Buseck, legal director at the Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders, an advocacy group.
Campbell's request began last year when she expressed her frustration to Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian. In turn, Avakian contacted the VA and noted that Oregon law required equal access to all goods and services for registered domestic partners. He also spoke with the White House, which made clear it was deferring to the VA and wanted to let the process run its course. He said the VA was also communicating with the White House, but he could not say to what degree.
"The attitude at the end was clear that they were working very hard to make this work," Avakian said. "And I'm deeply grateful they spent the time thinking this through carefully and coming to the right conclusion."
Despite the VA's insistence that Shinseki's decision only applied to Campbell and Lynchild, Avakian said he believed the decision sent a clear message that would make it easier for future same-sex couples to gain veterans' burial benefits.
"I don't think there's any way to get around the fact that is a precedent-setting strong message," he said.
When asked if the Obama administration welcomed Shinseki's decision, the White House said in a statement: "The president has made clear that his administration will treat same-sex couples as fairly as possible, consistent with existing law, and VA's actions are consistent with that policy."

Short review: This is one of the nice network sites, they are kind to themselves, you can tell they treat the girls well, they play nice with the members and it all works out to be high quality in my opinion. My XXX Pass will give you options for the video play in connection speed, and two different formats, while the pictures are just almost too nice to find words to describe.
Content Amount: The first thing I noticed about this network is the fact that even though they are offering 8 sites worth of material, nearly each one can stand strong on their own. There were a couple that lacked, but overall it's loaded with content.

The Mozilla Foundation has ramped up its online services offerings by launching Firefox Accounts. The firm says it has always been at the forefront of cloud services — from optimizing how to download and update software like the Firefox browser and its integrated add-ons platform, to more recently integrating Firefox Sync, social features, and WebRTC.
"While we've worked to offer services that deliver value and put users and developers in control of their web experiences, we've never had a simple way for you to sign up and sign in to access these integrated services across our products," said Mark Mayo of Mozilla's cloud services team.
Firefox Accounts is intended to be a safe way for programmers to create an account better integrate services into the web experiences they are trying to create, like the new Firefox Sync.
NOTE: Firefox Sync enables users to take browsing data like passwords, bookmarks, history, and open tabs across devices.
Developers will need to have Firefox Aurora (Mozilla's beta stage experimental browser iteration) to be able to test the experimental new Firefox Accounts and Firefox Sync.
"Firefox Aurora includes a redesign of the browser interface to help you get things done, faster. Tabs have a new fluid and streamlined shape and non-active tabs blend into the background to make it faster for you to find and focus on the tab you want. A new menu contains the most popular features including copy, paste, zoom, as well as add-ons all in one spot with easy to identify visual icons," writes the Mozilla web developer team.

Book 1: The Battle for Gobwin Knob
Overlord Stanley the Plaid is conducting a military campaign to quest for the Arkentools – artifacts of ancient power left behind by the Titans who created the Erfworld.
Stanley controls one of these tools, the Arkenhammer, but his quest for the others seems to have been costly and unsuccessful.
Day 1
The story opensErf-b1-p001 with the Battle of Warchalking fought by the forces of Stanley the Plaid and Marbits. The battle ends in defeat for Stanley, when Stanley's last living warlord – Manpower the Temporary – is killed in battle.
Stanley's chief adviser Wanda Firebaugh convinces him to purchase an expensive Summon Perfect Warlord Spell as a last-ditch hope to prevent defeat.
Stanley insists that Wanda cast the Spell herself (ignoring her attempts to explain that she specializes in Croakamancy and the spell requires a Findamancer).
Day 2+3
After getting the spell from the magic kingdom, Wanda summons Parson Gotti from a gaming session in his apartment on Earth into the ErfworldErf-b1-p016, where he is to serve as Chief Warlord to Stanley.
MeanwhileErf-b1-p021, Prince Ansom of Jetstone is leading a massive coalition toward Stanley's capital, Gobwin Knob, hoping to destroy Stanley's side forever.
One of Ansom's warlords, a female barbarian Jillian Zamussels (who is Ansom's love interest) flies on a scouting mission. As soon as she leaves, Ansom sends a squad of heavy ground units led by warlords Sir Webinar and Dora to follow her as emergency backup.
Jillian is captured by Stanley's forces and taken to Gobwin Knob, where Wanda interrogates her. Their interactions suggest that they are romantically or otherwise intimate.
Day 4
After concluding the interrogation, Wanda, confident of her emotional domination of the prisoner, plans to deliberately release her to be found by Webinar's squad and become a bait for Ansom.
Expecting Ansom to personally lead a rescue expedition, Wanda, Stanley, and Parson plot an ambush. The trap fails when Vinny Doombats of Transylvito, one of Ansom's warlords, persuades him to remain behind although Ansom moves with the flying units to the head of the column. In addition, he contacts Charlie, a powerful Ruler and a mercenary, and hires three of Charlie's Archons from him to reinforce Webinar's group.
During this time, Parson has been learning the battle mechanics of Erfworld and has planned an attack on the coalition.
Day 5
Taking advantage of the enemy column's lack of air cover, Parson sends a force of dwagons to make hit-and-run raids. They surgically target heavy siege units, which are critical to Ansom's attack plans, and then retreat.
After the raids, Vinny's scout doombats discover a ring of dwagons in the forest near the column. Inferring that this formation has been deployed to protect the attacking dwagons until they heal the next turn, Ansom assembles a force to punch through the far side of the ring (its weakest point) and finish them off while they are still wounded and vulnerable.
Ansom's force fights its way into the circle, and finds nothing inside. The ring formation is a trick (in fact, the wounded dwagons are hovering over a nearby lake, out of reach of enemy ground units). Ansom considers his options for salvaging the situation. In the hope of saving the remaining siege units, he orders Jillian to lead the air units in a hunt for the wounded dwagons.
Jillian begins to carry out the search as ordered. However, she deliberately sends Webinar, Dora, and most of the slower flying units on wild-goose chases and leaves them behind. Then, she declares that she is abandoning the mission in favor of heading directly back to Ansom's position to help him escape from the dwagon ring. One of the Archons confronts her with the question of whether her actions are the result of being under a spell just as they find the group of wounded dwagons.
Meanwhile, Stanley and his advisers monitor the situation from the situation room at Gobwin Knob, using a battlefield command-and-control display generated by three mentally linked spellcasters: a Lookamancer, a Thinkamancer, and a Foolamancer. Parson worries that Jillian's group is getting too close to the wounded dwagons; however, Wanda insists that Jillian will not attack. Sizemore Rockwell, another of Stanley's casters, warns that the Suggestion Spell on Jillian might break if it requires actions (such as ignoring enemy units) that are too difficult to rationalize away. Wanda angrily dismisses his concern.
Face to face with the wounded dwagons, Jillian is unwilling to attack, and flounders for a reason to avoid doing so. Jaclyn, one of the Archons, presses her for a decision to either attack, switch sides, or quit. Under this pressure, Jillian overcomes Wanda's Spell and sends a message to Ansom declaring her hatred for Stanley and love for Ansom. She then leads her force in an attack.
Parson directs a focused counterattack, ordering his forces to "croak, not capture" the enemy warlord. Wanda objects, but Parson and Stanley are unswayed. However, Ansom comes to Jillian's rescue just in time, with Vinny in tow. With these reinforcements, the dwagons are routed and destroyed.
Stanley is enraged over the loss of the dwagons and will not listen to Parson's attempt to suggest a new plan of attack. He decides to take his last stand back into his own hands and orders Parson, Wanda, and Sizemore out of his sight. As they leave (with Parson carrying Wanda, who is in a state of shock), he sends a command to recall all of his surviving forces to Gobwin Knob, and orders the three casters to break their link.
Day 6
Parson decides that he has to risk Stanley's wrath and convince him to attack the enemy leaders. Before he can do so, he finds that the surviving dwagons (from the decoy ring) have returned to Gobwin Knob. Stanley takes them, along with the Foolamancer and the top three units of the Knights in Stanley's Service, and departs the city.
Parson is left as sole commander of the limited forces remaining at Gobwin Knob, which he must rally in a final stand against Ansom's vast coalition. Parson goes to the situation room and finds that Misty, the Lookamancer, was killed by the severing of the link.
While examining the tunnels under Gobwin Knob, Parson learns from Sizemore, Stanley's Dirtamancer, that they were designed for mining rather than defense, and can only be collapsed to a limited extent before bringing down the entire city.
During this conversation, Sizemore describes Stanley's rise to power. Originally a common piker, Stanley was promoted to warlord. He then found and was attuned to the Arkenhammer, enabling him to tame dwagons. The battles he won as a result impressed then-ruler King Saline IV, who made Stanley his Chief Warlord and Heir Designate. After a gobwin rebellion resulted in Saline's death, Stanley, who was away on a mission at that time, returned and succeeded Saline as the Ruler, but in his case he is an Overlord because he is not Royal.
As Ansom's forces approach Gobwin Knob, Jillian surmises that Stanley has fled and requests permission to pursue, but refuses to explain where he went or how she knows. After her request is denied, she tells her story to Ansom in person. Jillian had been the heir to the small, hidden kingdom of Faq. Unhappy with life at home, she led mercenary expeditions to supplement Faq's treasury. While on a mission, she got a message describing a massive dwagon flight over Faq, and then found her status changed to barbarian. Continuing to take mercenary jobs to support herself, she learned that Stanley was a likely suspect in the attack. This was confirmed the first time she was captured by Stanley's forces, and encountered a caster from Faq, who turns out to be Wanda Firebaugh, working for Stanley. After this explanation, Ansom agrees with Jillian's conclusion that Stanley is headed to the ruins of Faq with the intent of making a new start there.
Day 7
Parson then begins putting his new plan into motion. He directs Sizemore to lead his golems in an overwhelmingly strong attack against the furthest-advanced Marbit scouts in the tunnels, ignoring all other forces. This ploy should lead Ansom to believe that the tunnels under the city are mostly unguarded. Parson consults Maggie, the Thinkamancer, who tells him that Wanda will probably recover eventually, but not yet. Parson then has Maggie put him in direct contact with Charlie, and offers him a deal. Charlie takes a friendly tone, but declines to damage his reputation by changing sides in mid-conflict. After Maggie tells him that she has the stamina to send only one more Thinkagram this turn, Parson contacts Ansom and deliberately goads him, scoffing at royalty and declaring that Stanley's attunement to the Arkenhammer and Ansom's failure to attune to his Arkenpliers shows Stanley to be Ansom's "superior".
However, this goading is unknowingly interrupted by Stanley. The Foolamancer was mentally damaged by the severing of the link, and has been unable to cast a proper Veiling Spell to help Stanley evade pursuit. Stanley contacted Maggie to see if she can help with the problem. She suggests addressing the Foolamancer by his proper name to restore his sense of self. Unfortunately, neither she nor Stanley knows what his name is.
Ansom dispatches a force of air units, led by Jillian and Vinny, to hunt down Stanley. Jullian is instructed to break alliance with Jetstone at the end of the day and re-ally with the Translyvito and Charlie. This will give them a late-afternoon turn that day and an early-morning turn the next day, thus giving them a double move before Stanley can get any further. They plan to catch on Stanley and intercept him in a narrow mountain pass leading to Faq.
Ansom then sends a force of Jetstone units led by Webinar and Dora into the tunnels, believing (thanks to Parson's earlier ruse) that he has found an undefended path to the main city garrison.
Jillian leads her forces directly over Gobwin Knob, buzzing the Tower of Efdup. She confronts Wanda, who has partially recovered from her collapse. After Jillian declares her intention of hunting down Stanley and freeing Wanda from his service, Wanda activates the tower's anti-air defenses. This strikes down several Unipegataurs and Jaclyn the Archon, but spares Jillian herself. The intruders retreat, and Wanda heads down to the courtyard to uncroak the fallen enemy units, providing Gobwin Knob with a small air force.
That night, Parson discusses plans with Sizemore and Wanda. Sizemore is very unhappy about fighting, not because he fears death, but because he does not wish to kill. However, he accepts that he has no real choice. Wanda intends to go after Stanley and rescue him, but is dissuaded when Parson explains that he has made a deal with Charlie. Freed of his Jetstone alliance by Ansom's turn order exploit, Charlie is bowing out, avoiding a new alliance with Transylvito by making them an unacceptably expensive offer. Without the Archons reinforcing the enemy, Stanley will be able to survive on his own. The next day, Parson's turn does not begin at dawn as usual. Instead, a large number of Archons arrive in Gobwin Knob airspace, and Charlie offers to hire Parson and extricate him from the siege. Parson declines, and convinces Charlie to stand by and await the outcome of the battle with Ansom's forces.
Day 8
When Parson's turn does begin, a box of Luckamancy Charms appears, along with the final piece of a sword. The back of the box indicates that the items that have been appearing in his meals to date (a pair of glasses that let him see unit stats, a bracer that interfaces with his calculator watch to compute battle odds, and the previous pieces of the sword) are there to correct flaws in the summoning spell and make Parson the "Perfect Warlord" he was originally supposed to be.
Parson learns from Wanda that the Foolamancer's name is Jack, and has Maggie contact him in an attempt to get him to convince Stanley to return to Gobwin Knob with the dwagons. However, Jack does not seem to understand. Stanley, Jack, and the rest of the group continue on until they reach a choke point, where Jillian, Vinny, and a force of Transylvito warlords and bats wait in ambush. Transylvito warlord Caesar Borgata leads the assault, planning to make up for the departure of the Archons with a large quantity of bats reinforced by warlord bonuses.
Stanley fights his way through, and closes with Jillian, who stayed in the rear as a backup. Jillian and Jack recognize each other, and after Jillian addresses him by the name Jack snaps out of his derangement. He uses his illusions to help Stanley escape.
Finding himself with only a half dozen of his original 30 dwagons and still on the wrong side of the choke point, Stanley is convinced to abandon his plan and head back toward Gobwin Knob.
Back at the city, Parson sends a large force led by Sizemore into the mining tunnels under Gobwin Knob to repel Ansom's underground attack. Hidden traps are activated and badly damage the Jetstone units. Sizemore himself is confronted by Webinar and Dora. He re-animates one of his defeated golems, who then squashes the two Jetstone warlords. With the loss of their leaders, the invaders are routed. Sizemore then seals the tunnels against further incursion, and Wanda reanimates the fallen enemies from this underground conflict to make an army of uncroaked soldiers, which Parson will use to protect the outer walls of Gobwin Knob.
The sight of uncroaked former Jetstones defending the walls of Gobwin Knob increases tensions within Ansom's coalition and outrages Ansom himself to the point of launching a one-man assault on the walls. He cuts a swath through the uncroaked horde with the Arkenpliers, until Wanda leads her flying uncroaked units against him. Ansom loses the Arkenpliers and is knocked from his flying carpet, falling to the city walls. He desperately offers Charlie a new alliance, and one of the Archons presents him with a set of "amended" terms, which he grudgingly accepts.
The Archons then disintegrate Wanda's flying uncroaked forces, including the unipegataur she was riding, and she falls down. Ansom recovers the Arkenpliers and confronts Wanda, but she is rescued by Sizemore and his golems.
As the attackers breach the outer walls of Gobwin Knob, Parson has his units stage a fighting retreat into the garrison, and moves his headquarters from the tower to the dungeon beneath the city.
Wanda leads uncroaked infantry in a dance fight and at first gains upper hand against coalition troops pouring into the courtyard as they lack units capable of dance-fight.
Ansom counters that with a Dance Dance Revolution-style dance relayed to his troops by Charlie's Archons, which gives his forces a massive bonus and leads them to victory.
Ansom seizes the courtyard and Parson relays through Charlie a desire to personally surrender to victorious Ansom atop the tower parapet. Parson gets his twoll lackey, Bogroll, magically disguised as himself and sends the twoll to surrender in his place. Ansom realizes the trick too late and the twoll tackles the prince off his flying carpet. Ansom and the twoll fall from the height of the parapet in front of the entire coalition army, and both get croaked - Ansom by the fall and Bogroll by the enraged coalition forces immediately after.
Parson follows his assassination of Ansom by ordering Sizemore to collapse all the mining tunnels beneath the city, completely destroying Gobwin Knob and many coalition units within its walls.
This rack and ruin is insufficient for victory though as too many coalition forces remain alive. Parson retreats with the casters into the portal room in the dungeon to discuss the desperate final plan. Gobwin Knob is built atop an extinct volcano, and Parson orders Maggie, Wanda and Sizemore to make it erupt. The casters use magic to link the minds of Wanda the Croakmancer and Sizemore the Dirtmancer, and with their combined skill they uncroak the volcano.
The plan succeeds and the eruption devastates the coalition, annihilating all besiegers who entered the city and those in the surrounding hexes. Charlie attempts to treat with Parson, but he refuses and escapes with the casters through the portal to the Magic Kingdom.
Elsewhere, surviving Transylvito warlords and Jillian discuss the news communicated to them by the Transylvito Thinkamancer. The coalition is dissolved, and Jillian and Vinny are devastated by the news of Ansom's death. Caesar Borgata wants to claim Faq for his side.
Parson and the casters return to Gobwin Knob early next day to find a scene of utter ruin. The coalition is erased and the terrain itself changed. Sizemore shows Parson that he has discovered a fortune in gems exposed by the volcano, while Wanda finds the Arkenpliers in the ruins and attunes to them.
Parson muses on the death and destruction that he caused and wonders if that is what he dreamed about. Wanda tells him that it is the world that wanted him, not the other way around, as she digs up Ansom's corpse.
Meanwhile, Stanley receives a call from Maggie and gets updated with the situation in Gobwin Knob. He decides to get back home immediately.
Day 9
Gobwin Knob's turn starts at dawn, and Parson concludes that there are no enemy troops in vicinity. Wanda reanimates Ansom with the Arkenpliers, and the result is different from the usual uncroaked: Ansom appears lifelike and has his memories and intellect basically intact. However, he now sees things from a new viewpoint and wishes to help Parson conquer Erfworld.
Wanda uses the Arkenpliers to reanimate the whole army of croaked units as lifelike "decrypted" units. Describing how she knew that she would one day wield an Arkentool, she reveals that she had led Stanley to Faq. She had underestimated him, believing that he would be defeated and thereby deliver the Arkenhammer to her. Instead, he sacked Faq, and Wanda turned to his side and maneuvered him into questing for the other Arkentools.

I would like to thank the Butler community for its wonderful support of the animals at the Butler County Humane Society. It was amazing to see the bags of dog food and cat food, cat litter, toys and treats lined up in the shelter lobby during the holiday season.
Officer Trina Loesch of the Evans City Police Department and Evans City borough secretary Nadine Grabe hosted a "giving tree" for the animals and came by with a pickup truck and car packed with supplies.
Center Township Elementary School came by with Christmas-wrapped boxes full of donations, as did Emily Brittain Elementary School.
Elliott's Tire Service sponsored a Pet Appreciation Day, and Butler Human Resources Association made a group donation.
Dozens of people arrived with truckloads or gift bags full of items, as well as year-end monetary donations.
The groups and families are too numerous to name them all.
People who stopped shared experiences involving a beloved family pet. Many of those who donated money did so in honor or memory of loved ones, both two- and four-legged.
One family decided that instead of giving gifts to each other, they would pool what they normally would have spent into one pot and share it among several local charities, of which we were a beneficiary.
I am so proud to be working in this community. We are 100 percent supported by the community, and the fact that our doors have been open for 115 years speaks volumes about the people of this county.
My heart is full of appreciation and gratitude to the wonderful people who take time out from their busy holiday to remember the homeless animals who are waiting for their forever homes. I am honored to be able to give a voice to the wonderful animals at the shelter, and on behalf of our staff and all the dogs and cats that benefit from such generosity.

Rupert Murdoch defended Glenn Beck's accusation that the president was a racist in his long interview with Sky News Australia.
At the 18:04, the interviewer says "Glenn Beck who you mentioned has called Barack Obama a racist, and he helped organize a protest against him and others on Fox have likened him (Obama) to Stalin is that..."
Murdoch's reponse:
"No, no, no, not Stalin, I don't think, not one of our people.
"On the racist thing, that caused a (unintelligible--grilling?). But he (Obama) did make a very racist comment. Ahhh..about, you know, blacks and whites and so on, which he said in his campaign he would be completely above. And um, that was something which perhaps shouldn't have been said about the President, but if you actually assess what he was talking about, he was right."
The backstory: During a discussion about how Obama handled himself during the Henry Louis Gates arrest, Beck said in August "This president has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again who has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture." When someone points out all the white people in the administration, Beck says, "I'm not saying he doesn't like white people...this guy is, I believe, a racist."

College Students: Finding an Internship
By Steven Broussard
Undergraduate education is a nurturing period in which students can take time to determine their career paths and develop the tools necessary to succeed. At the same time, an increasingly competitive job market fosters an environment in which soon-to-be college grads are doing anything they can to bolster their resumes and enhance their marketability. Aside from achieving a 4.0 GPA, there are a number of things a college student can do to stand out to potential employers.
Students can advance their status by participating in campus-sponsored clubs and organizations, by doing volunteer work, or by holding down part-time jobs. However, none of these will help them to realize their passions or prepare them more for stepping out into the "real world" than valuable time spent as an intern.
There are two main reasons for seeking an internship prior to graduating college.
First, the four years you spend as an undergraduate are meant as a period to determine which field you would be comfortable choosing for a potential career. Russell Ventura, Internship Coordinator at Boston College said, "For many liberal arts majors, they find themselves interested in multiple fields. Trying to work in as many as possible would be a good way to narrow the selection process...It exposes students to different work settings and different people, all of which can shed light on the student's career decision."
In addition to helping a student realize his or her desired career path, internships are often pivotal assets for getting a foot in the door after graduation. Compiling an impressive series of jobs indicates a clear eagerness to achieve. Employers often offer full-time positions to their soon-to-graduate interns.
According to Beth Settje, Internship Coordinator and Career Consultant at the University of Connecticut, "Employers have shared with us that they look for internship experience on a student's resume; additionally employers often prefer to offer full time positions to those who have worked for their organization in an internship, as the new employee is already vested and may have even been trained."
How do I get an internship?
The key to gaining this practical work experience, which is initially hard for the typical college student to do, is to find your own engine and to take the initiative. For the most part, no one is going to seek you out to work for their company. Therefore, you have to do the legwork and utilize any and all potential resources until your goals are met.
The career center at your college is an outstanding place to start. There you will find experienced professionals who deal with the process on a daily basis. Valuable resources include up-to-date contacts and job descriptions submitted by company recruiters and online job search databases specific to interns or new grads. Experts also offer top-notch advice on submitting resumes and cover letters, and how to succeed in an interview. Taking your search one step further, an excellent option is to ask older friends and family about possible openings. Hiring managers are more apt to hire someone with a good reference from within the company. Don't be afraid to use who you know!
College is four years long, leaving much time to gain the necessary experience to make your mark in the marketplace after graduation. The majority of students holding internships are juniors and seniors, but that doesn't mean you can't try to start searching or trying to improve your chances earlier.
"There is no set timeline when it comes to internships," said Geni Harclerode of the career center at the University of Michigan. "While some internships are available only to upperclassmen, many employers are open to hiring students at a variety of academic levels, including first year students, so it is never too early to seek out experiential learning opportunities,"
Should I take an unpaid internship?
Many interns face a dilemma when considering which opportunities to apply for or accept. The problem is many employers offer their candidates a wealth of experience, but nothing else in the way of compensation.
The consensus among experts interviewed is a belief in the principle of delayed gratification. If you're financially able to forgo the remuneration, the experience far outweighs the immediate monetary gain.
According to Scott Mofield of the career center at Duke University, "Unpaid internships can provide great experiences. An important idea for students to remember is that an internship gives them value to employers because of the opportunity, not because of the salary they are paid. An internship doesn't hold more or less value over another because it is paid or unpaid. An internship is most effective for students when they take advantage of the lessons provided and are motivated to do great work." Translation: concentrate on learning the facets of the field you intend to enter. The money will come later.
Finding an internship is, much like when you applied to college, a process. If you are considering applying for a position it is a clear indication that you are motivated. The next step is to translate that into action. Most competitive summer internships have February deadlines for all applicants. Be sure to keep this in mind when you're in the throes of the busy spring semester. When landing an internship, in the words of famed Roman philosopher Seneca, "Luck is when preparation meets opportunity."
