Will future
Some people have been taught that 'will' is 'the future' in English. This is not correct. Sometimes when we talk about the future we cannot use 'will'. Sometimes when we use 'will' we are not talking about the future.
We can use 'will' to talk about future events we believe to be certain.
Often we add 'perhaps', 'maybe', 'probably', 'possibly' to make the belief less certain.
We often use 'will' with 'I think' or 'I hope'.
We use 'will' at the moment we make a new decision or plan. The thought has just come into our head.

Kuala Lumpur (or "KL," as the locals say) is the capital of Malaysia. The days when it all began as mud flats and tin deposits (in the 1850's) seem unimaginable compared to it's current state. You will find many traces of history in the beautifully preserved architecture. Today, Kuala Lumpur is the International Garden City of Lights where shoppers are spoiled for choice. Gastronomy connoisseurs broaden their palates, party animals find sanctuaries, and nature-lovers are wowed.

Kuala Lumpur is a melting pot of cross-cultural influences and the result is an exciting mixture of cultures, costumes and cuisines. Kuala Lumpur is the capital and largest city of Malaysia. It is also one of the three Malaysian Federal Territories, together with Putrajaya and Labuan. The city is surrounded by satellite cities like the administrative capital Putrajaya, Cyberjaya, Sunway (great amusement park), Cheras, Shah Alam, Subang and Petaling Jaya. KL consists of various districts with their own identities.
The Classic Centre is where KL was born, at the meeting of Klang and Gombak Rivers. You will find historical sites like the first large mosque Masjid Jamek, Central Market, Little India, Dataran Merdeka, Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad and the Selangor Club. Lively Chinatown is still authentic and features Petaling Street - Kuala Lumpur's first market and various temples (Buddhist and Hindu). The Petronas Twin Towers and KL Tower in the Grand Jalan Ampang district are hard to miss as they dominate the city's skyline. The nostalgic Lake Gardens boasts the romantic park Taman Tasik Perdana, the Islamic Arts Museum, National Museum and the National Monument is just a stone's throw away. The posh Bangsar is where Kuala Lumpur's rich come out to play. The highlight is Jalan Telawi, packed with nightspots.
For shopping, head off into the direction of the hip Bukit Bintang which is dubbed "The Shopper's Paradise." Do the Bintang Walk and find out why! The rest of KL includes sights such as the Batu Caves Hindu Temple, Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM) Park, Selangor Pewter, and the National Zoo. Or why not take a relaxing day, and just absorb the atmosphere of wandering through such diverse communities as Chinese, Malay, South Indian and East Malaysian and many more. Each community offers its own festivals, food, music, art and fashion, while lending its own unique addition to Malaysian culture.
Kuala Lumpur combines a modern city with an old feeling of the town. Visit for example the Petronas Twin Tower which used to be the highest building in the world or visit the oldest market in town where you can find lovely souvenirs to take home.

The Malaysian kitchen is a fusion of cultural diversity. For instance, Nasi Lemak is Malay food, Rojak is Indian Muslim, Char Kuay Teow is Chinese and Laksa is Nyonya (a mix of Malay and Chinese). Each culture emphasises different ingredients, exploiting different flavours, for example the Malay curry tastes tangier compared to the Indian's.

Kuala Lumpur offers many café options, for the regular coffee drinker to the casual one. There is also a mixture of the types of cafés offered, from the outdoor locations where the locals hang out, to the indoor cafés for a convenient shopping break. The numerous options of popular franchise chains and local cafés offer great choices for all coffee experiences.

Malaysia is a Muslim country, but non-Muslims are free to enjoy alcohol and other aspects of the night-life. If you look close enough, you will notice the assimilation of local culture in the bars. As the dusk falls, Kuala Lumpur transforms into a vibrant city of entertainment and fun, becoming a playground for party-goers—regardless of nationality. The club culture is concentrated mainly in Jalan Telawi and Jalan P Ramlee.

Shoppers will find their trip to Kuala Lumpur worthwhile to say the least. There are many ways to pursue your shopping needs from a shop house to a street stall, or from a night market ("Pasar Malam") to a shopping mall. You may not always find exactly the same product but you have a lot of choice in price and quality. There are great shopping malls in Kuala Lumpur, namely Suria KLCC (just below the Twin Towers) and Mid Valley Megamall, Bangsar Village. However, the most famous area for shopping is Bukit Bintang, with the highest density of malls and shops in the city. You can find anything from the smartest Japanese hi-tech gadget to the latest French designer piece. So let yourself loose!

There are two airports: Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) at Sepang, 55 km from the city, and Subang Airport is 12 km from the city—just a quick taxi ride away. Subang Airport caters mostly domestic flights.
From KLIA to the Kuala Lumpur city centre you can take the high speed train KLIA Ekspres & KLIA Transit. Travelling time is 28 minutes for KLIA Ekspres and 35 minutes for KLIA Transit. www.kliaekspres.com

Public Transport
Since most people don't live downtown, the most common way of getting around in Kuala Lumpur is driving. There may be light traffic jams during rush hours, but nothing serious. However, for the visitor, the public transport system is well-expanded and consists of an underground system, a monorail line, a series of different train lines and several bus operators.

If you are not familiar with the city and only staying for a short period, taxis can be the most convenient way of getting about. Taxis are easily available and economical. Fares are charged according to the zone and are subject to change. An extra 50 percent is added for services between 24.00 (midnight) and 6.00. All taxis should use meters.

Thanks to Michael of MindLoveMisery's Menagerie for hasting the Tale Weavers prompt. This prompt was to write about walking or visiting a park [that] turns into discovery.
I'm going to continue with my one of my Tale Weaver prompts with a modern rendition of Red Riding Hood with the main character, Red, who has just met Axel.J. Wolff or 'Wolff' in her grandmother's house. Wolff is house-sitting for grandma Addy who is in Hawaii with Wolff's Grandpa Reggie. Things were heating up for them at the end, I wonder what will happen when they get to the park?
Part 1: The Wolff with Shamrock Eyes
She shouldn't have run but that's what she did. Wolff offered her his hand and invited her to keep him company and she panicked.
"The rest of the food is in the fridge," she said ignoring Wolff's outstretched hand. She turned towards Gran Addy's bedroom door before Wolff could capture her hands again.
He was gorgeous with shamrock green eyes and tanned skin, probably from being out on the golf course but well, who was she to judge. She had had to learn to golf for work herself but instead of tanning her fair skin on the he course, her skinned often burned.
Red was alarmed she didn't want to resist Wolff. He had gazed at her as if she were prey, looking her up and down as she found herself caught betweeen him and freedom through Gran's bedroom door. He had licked his lips and stretched his arms above his head.
As if Red, wouldn't notice his taut muscles and the pleased grin on his face. His teeth showed as he grinned as if Wolff thought she would give into him like weak prey. But Red wasn't weak. No one had called her that for a long time. Red was strong. She was first in her class at Columbia and the best young associate at her firm.
Just the same, when Wolff asked Red to stay she backed up and tripped over her flats caught on the carpet. Then, getting up before Wolff could help her, she took off out the front door towards the safety of her red Coralla.
As she drove off, Red saw Wolff leaning against her grandmother's front door, smiling at her. There was no doubt his gaze was predatory.
Thick lust and heat coursed through her veins as she backed up her car trying to force herself to calm down. Wolff waved and Red's tires squeeled as she took off down the gravel road towards her family's summer cottage and safety.
When Red walked in the cottage her mom appeared surprised to see her, "Gina? I'm surprised you're home so early. Your Grandma called and said you were having a wonderful time with Reggie's Grandson Wolff. I thought you'd be a while," Anne said raising her eyebrows.
"Um, he's fine. Wolff appreciated the food."
Then Red got mad, "You should've told me Grandma Addy was in Hawaii with Reggie. Wolff scared the h*ll out of me. I didn't know what he was doing in Gran's bedroom."
"Oh, Gran said she had the biggest bedroom. Reggie and she are gone for three months so she felt Wolff should have the biggest room in her house. She bought some manly bedding and packed away her old trinkets. He's been so good to your Gran and Reggie."
"You should have said something. I hate being surpised like that. I almost screamed bloody murder. I don't need you or Gran to set me up like that. I'm a single girl and I like it."
Red's mom chuckled, "Most unattached women say that until they meet a great guy. Axel has his demons behind him and needs to settle down. Well, that's what your Gran and Reggie said. It was their idea for you to bring him food. I thought it was a great one, " Anne said winking.
Red stomped her foot, " I get to choose who I want to date or meet. I mean, he was half naked in Gran's room. Who does he think he is trying to shut me up before I tell him to get out? He shouldn't be in there, doesn't matter what Gran Addy thinks. Doesn't he have a job and his own place?"
Anne chuckled again, " He was half naked, eh? I would've loved to have seen that. I've seen Axel on the beach a few times and that man works out. Such intense green eyes, an Irish background, a hot body, and helpful to his Grandpa, sounds sexy to me. If I was a bit younger, I'd go for him."
"Mom!" Red said shocked.
"He likes you, you know?"
"Does not. He doesn't even know me.He just wants what 'all 'guys want."
'Did he ask you to stay?"
"Yeah, he did. But I panicked. I never panick. I'm cool under pressure. That's why I'm good at my job," Red said confused.
"You ran, didn't you? Took off like Little Red Riding Hood being chased by the big bad 'Wolff?" Anne said laughing a her joke.
"I did. Not quite like that though. How did you know?"
"You look anxious and I know you well. What did you think was going to happen?" Anne said enjoying teasing her daughter.
"Stop it, mom. I can't handle a guy like Wolff now. Too hungry, the kind of guy who wants too much. I've plenty of options in the city."
"Yet, you don't date much," Anne murmered.
Red stomped her food again, "I'm fine. I'm going to bed. Don't bother with breakfast for me tomorrow. I'm going for a run in the park when I wake up, a long one."
Anne chuckled,"I'd be careful if I were you. Axel Wolff likes to run in the park in the mornings too."
"Well, I'll go running tonight then. The sun's up for a few more hours."
"Red, don't go. You're all worked up for no reason and you haven't had dinner, have you?"
"No, I'm fine. I'll eat after I'm back."
Red left the family cottage slamming the back door. She changed into her running clothes in her car and made a beeline for the park a few blocks away. When she was half-way down one paved trail she stopped abruptly.
Wolff was sitting on a park bench in his own running clothes. He had taken his shirt off, and Red could see his fascinating tattoos. She wondered what they were images of and what they meant.
Her eyes were glued to Wolff, wiping the sweat off his body with a towel. For some reason, her mouth was dry. She felt heat flowing through her veins again. It was an overpowering sensation.
Shaking her head, Red noticed she had stopped running entranced by Wolff's body and shamrock green eyes. He gazed up at her and stared.
Wolff's lips curled into a half-smile, "Surprised to see you here?"
"What are 'you' doing here?" Red asked instead.
"Had to wear off supper. But I'm hungry again. Did you come to help me with that?"
"Not really. But . . . "
Wolff cut her off, "You do have big eyes, Red. They're beautiful and so are you. Sit, talk with me."
Red was ready to run but then Wolff was in front of her as in Gran Addy's room. He grasped her wrist gently. Red could tell he wasn't afraid of confrontation. For some reason he made her feel okay with backing down. No other guy did that.
She pulled and tugged but Wolff wouldn't let her wrist go. She was disgusted with herself for not smacking his amused face.
"You, you just want to eat me up with your big teeth," she said fumbling to find words.
Wolff laughed, "It's not my teeth you should be worried about."
Red tried pulled away from Wolff again. By then, Wolff had guided her to the park bench without her realizing it. Putting on his shirt back on he turned to her. He still grasped her same wrist and hand gently, "So, tell me something Red?"
Red's eyes dilated, growing larger and bluer. Wolff stroked her cheek with his other hand.
It was too late. Wolff had caught Red.

I It is a quality shop, in which Art Schwertfeger, partner in charge of the Chicago office of Haskins & Sells, takes great pride. It aims at absolute accuracy, impeccable content, handsome appearance, punctual production and efficiency. Art shows genuine enthusiasm when he talks about the work of the Chicago Report Department. 'There are so many things that they do here, and do so well," he says, as he displays a variety of multilith products of the department. "This shows you what people can do when they are innovative." He holds up a small, handsome catalog of the art works that decorate the Chicago office, in which H&S people can identify title and artist of each print and piece of sculpture. Then he shows a green-covered annual report, decorated with a golf course landscape, that the Report Department produced for a country club. Next to it is a report for a 2 5-year old company, covered in silver stock in recognition of the company's silver anniversary. Report departments are frequently overlooked in discussions of who is who, and who does what, in public accounting firms. Yet, as Art Schwertfeger is ready to point out, a report department produces the one physical, tangible evidence of all the meticulous work performed by a professional organization for a client. So why should a report not be the best possible instrument to represent that work? Why shouldn't we take pains to make it speak well of us, in every way? The question answers itself— at least in the time and attention that the Chicago office devotes to its reports. And for this reason the Chicago office Report Department has become something special. This is not to say that others in the Firm do not see the matter the same way; indeed, there are a number of outstanding report departments in other offices. But as an example of what an excellent department can be in this phase of our Firm's work, the department in Chicago serves well. The emphasis on excellence in Chicago office reports to clients has a long tradition behind it. For a good many years it was the Chicago pattern to put as many staff accountants as possible through a training stage in the Report Department, during which they became familiar with all the steps necessary to produce finished reports. By doing comparing and proving, or having to cope with someone's unclear hand or imperfect draft, many Chicago staffmen gained a fresh understanding of the importance of being careful from the start. Being responsible for searching out discrepancies in names and figures, they sharpened their proofreading eyes. Dave Ringstad, supervisor of the department, and Maury Bax, assistant supervisor, are both former members of the audit staff who are certified public accountants. The work for which they are responsible consists of far more than the mechanical reproduction of reports—as some people mistakenly conceive of all report department work. Their experience and knowledge of current report requirements and format enable them to assist the professional staff as a reference library. As Art Schwertfeger puts it: "We rely on Dave and Maury, who are professional accountants, to review our reports for technical content, accuracy and completeness. Our Report Department serves as a backstop to our partners and principals in editing our reports. They are a checkpoint. For example, they might suggest some wording to insert in a report to make it comply fully with our APM, or with SEC regulations. They do much more than check names, dates and figures."

Fall's footsteps can already be heard in literary circles. As summer hosts its last open-air festivals, prize organizers and publishers are gearing up for a new season of surprises. In today's dispatch, our Editors-At-Large from Europe tell us more about what is going on in the Czech Republic, Portugal, and France in this transitionary period. Come back next week for this summer's last dispatch.
Julia Sherwood, Editor-at-Large, reporting from the Czech Republic:
Held from 1 July to 4 August at venues in five cities – Brno, Ostrava, Wrocław, Košice and Lviv – across four countries, Authors' Reading Month (ARM) may well be Europe's biggest literary festival. It is certainly a major logistical feat: now in its 19th year, the festival featured 100 authors from six countries. Turkey alone, this year's guest country, was represented by more than thirty authors, including Nedim Gürsel, Murathan Mungan, Ayfer Tunç and Çiler İlhan. A strong Czech contingent featured prize-winning novelists Bianca Bellová and Josef Pánek, bestselling writers Michal Viewegh and Alena Mornštajnová, as well as a plethora of poets.

Sometimes, as with the tortoise sign, and the lemonade stand sign, I paused and thought about the stories behind them, the parts that you can conclude with some confidence from the evidence presented, the parts that you might guess at, and the secrets that surely lurk somewhere beneath, but that you'll never know. A tortoise is an unreliable narrator, that much I know. One who tells very sloooooow stories, but full of wisdom. Or at least, tortoise wisdom. Which sounds pretty wise. More wise than driving a dumb old car to work, anyway. Get up. Go ride.

Geese at sunset - © Ophrys Photography
the name Ophrys?
Photography takes it's name from the "Ophrys
orchids" which grow wild in the UK and Europe. Ophrys
being the latin name for this group of terrestrial (ground-dwelling)
orchids. My interest in British wild orchids, (and subsequently
wildlife and nature photography in general) probably began,
when as a small boy, I found a wild Fly Orchid (Ophrys insectifera)
in a Kent woodland. This fascinated me as it was so beautiful
and also so unusual. I later discovered that Charles Darwin
had once lived in Kent in the UK near to where I found it
and indeed had often come to this very place to study wild
orchids himself.
It seemed only fitting
that I should name my website after this wonderful group
of plants. Instead of the fly orchid, I chose the late
spider orchid (Ophrys fuciflora) as my company logo (the
logo is in the title bar at the top of this page) as it
is only found in the county of Kent in the UK - where
I have lived for nearly all of my life.Click
here to go to see more pictures of UK ophrys
Photographing wild orchids was only the beginning of course,
and although this website started out as a celebration
of British wild orchids, it has grown out of all recognition
into a general wildlife photography site. The site now
includes includes many pictures of animals and birds,
insects and plants which I have encountered in my travels.

In the Orthodox Church the liturgical day begins in the evening with the setting of the sun. This practice follows the Biblical account of creation: "And there was evening and there was morning, one day" (Gen 1:5). It leads us to the meditation of God's word and His love for men. It prepares us for the sleep of the night and the dawn of the new day to come. On the eves of the Divine Liturgy, it begins our movement into the most perfect communion with God in the sacramental mysteries.

Complete the Renault Clutch enquiry form and we'll arrange cost estimates from independant local Renault clutch fitting garages
The clutch in your Renault connects and disconnects the engine from the gearbox (transmission) allowing smooth gearchange and control of the Renault engine power.
A clutch plate (driven plate) is coated on both sides with a hard wearing high friction material. This is situated between the engine flywheel and a spring loaded pressure plate. The spring/pressure can be released by depressing the clutch pedal.
While driving, the whole clutch assembly can be turning at very high speeds. To allow a non rotating clutch pedal to control the rotating clutch assembly a clutch release bearing uses a fork acting on a thrust face
The clutch has to transmit the engine power to the wheels allowing the vehicle to move. The torque of the engine is transferred by the Renault clutch system relying entirely on the contact friction between 2 faces. A slipping clutch occurs when the friction is too low (often due to clutch wear) or engine torque is too high (during rapid acceleration)
The torque capacity (how much power can be transmitted without slipping) depends upon:
In order to use greater engine torque in high performance vehicles a multi-face clutch may be used compared to the single plate clutch system adopted on most Renault cars.
A car clutch is engaged/disengaged using the left most "clutch" pedal.
The clutch pedal is depressed to disengage the engine from the gearbox and drive train while changing gears. Once the gear is selected, the clutch pedal is released and the engine is once-again linked via the drive train
The clutch operation can be actuated by:

For three decades, Afghanistan was wracked by war and ethnic struggles. Football also suffered during this awful period and was even banned at one point. A passion for the beautiful game has been reignited throughout the country, however, and it has even managed to promote peace in a war-torn land.
Football is finally being played again in the hard-hit central Asian republic, with a national league actually being created and enjoying a successful first season. Eight teams from as many different regions took part in the newly-founded Afghan Premier League (APL), with the final – held in a packed stadium in Kabul in front of almost 5,000 fans – seeing Toofan Harirod defeat Simorgh Alborz 2-1 to win the inaugural title.
One of the driving forces behind the league is Ali Askar Lali, a former Afghan international who in 1981 arrived as a refugee in Germany. There he went on to play for and coach a number of teams before heading home to help bring about the re-birth of football and the founding of the APL. FIFA.com spoke with him about his hopes for the future of football in Afghanistan.
FIFA.com: What are your current occupations?
Ali Askar Lali: I work for FIFA on grassroots projects, mostly in Afghanistan. I'm also a technical adviser to the Afghanistan Football Association as well as working for the German Football Association in Afghanistan and in other countries. I train coaches, put in place structures and look after a lot of other things besides.
What are the most important current projects in Afghanistan?
There are two of them: one is the formation of a professional league, the other is creating the basis for teams to exist. This means that we are investing a lot in the grass roots – not just in Kabul but in plenty of other provinces besides. These two focuses are of great importance at the moment.
The league brought us closer to a lot of people in Afghanistan.
What did you think of the Afghan Premier League's first season?
It was a great success in many respects. We demonstrated that we can play and organise good football. The league brought us closer to a lot of people in Afghanistan. Around 16 million people – over half of the population – followed the championship, which means that we managed to bring football into people's homes and get families interested in the game. At the season finale, we saw just how enthusiastic young people had become for football. We've succeeded in projecting a peace-loving image of Afghanistan. Most people only know the country in connection with struggles, war, arms and drugs, and we have managed to show them another side to Afghanistan. Even within the country we managed to show unity and bring all ethnic groups together. They played together and had fun together.
What are your aims for the coming years?
The Premier League was a big step forward and we want to build on that. We need to make further improvements to the organisation – the league doesn't have any structures at the moment and we want to build those up. The clubs also need to be developed more. We organised the league using existing structures and brought teams together from eight regional zones, and the next step is to organise an open league. These are aims that we are going to pursue, even if the road ahead is a long one. We've got off to a good start and therefore we're optimistic that in five or six years' time, we'll have a good league.
Which would have a corresponding effect on the Afghanistan national team…
The stronger the league, the better the national team will obviously be. It's the flagship of any country. After all the years of conflict, I want to see Afghanistan present itself as a unit, as a united nation, and the national team is a very good means of achieving this. A strong national team would be good for the whole population.
After all the years of conflict, I want to see Afghanistan present itself as a unit, as a united nation, and the national team is a very good means of achieving this.
How are things looking for women's football?
Tradition dictates that this will be a rockier road. We first established women's football here in Afghanistan in 2003 or 2004. It was a tough job but we've managed to create teams in larger cities like Kabul and get clubs interested in supporting women's football. We have competitions for women's teams as well as organising an Afghan women's select team to take part in international tournaments. It was a long road but we've definitely taken the first few steps along it. We've made people more aware of women's football, for example by trying to show some women's football in between league matches. We also invited the women's international team to a league match and introduced them to the crowd after they had beaten Pakistan 4-1. People didn't know much about women's football before that, but after they found out that the Afghan team had beaten our arch rivals, they were proud of them. I think that we're on the right track when it comes to developing and supporting women's football in major cities in Afghanistan. In five to ten years, we will hopefully be doing the same in the provinces.
Could it be said that football in Afghanistan has brought the country together after all these years of war?
You could put it like that. For years we've been saying that Afghanistan can do so much with so little resources. Football is an incredible tool when it comes to steering young people away from arms, violence and drugs. The Premier League made a connection with lots of youngsters, showed them that football can open their horizons and that it is a sport that they can feel at home with. Football can achieve great things with modest means.
As part of the FIFA Goal Project, an artificial pitch has been built in Kabul which will have league matches played on it. How important is this development?
The Goal Project was the greatest step towards independence that our national association has taken, as it put them in a situation to be able to organise an event without outside influences from other organisations in Afghanistan. In a country like ours, there are plenty of bodies that want to exert an influence on football, but thanks to the Goal Project, we have been able to be independent enough up until now to organise events ourselves. And it's not just football matches – we can also train our coaches and officials as well as our youth players. The Goal Project really was a big thing for us. We would have liked some extra support, for example from our government, since we're short on capacity; we're short of people who can work out on the pitch, like coaches, referees and event organisers. We need people who understand how to implement structures for a league and for clubs. This is the capacity that we currently don't have in Afghanistan. We need to improve the infrastructure so that we ourselves can become more active in all the provinces.
You personally are a legend of Afghanistan football. Does that help when you are trying to motivate other people and partners?
I've earned a lot of respect as a former international who has come back to Afghanistan to help build up football in the country. Not many people have returned home out of exile. People can see that I'm committed to football, and that puts me in a position to open doors when it comes to sponsors and projects.

This information is produced and provided by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The information in this topic may have changed since it was written. For the most current information, contact the National Cancer Institute via the Internet web site at http://cancer.gov or call 1-800-4-CANCER.
Cancer prevention is action taken to lower the chance of getting cancer. By preventing cancer, the number of new cases of cancer in a group or population is lowered. Hopefully, this will lower the number of deaths caused by cancer.
To prevent new cancers from starting, scientists look at risk factors and protective factors. Anything that increases your chance of developing cancer is called a cancer risk factor; anything that decreases your chance of developing cancer is called a cancer protective factor.
Some risk factors for cancer can be avoided, but many cannot. For example, both smoking and inheriting certain genes are risk factors for some types of cancer, but only smoking can be avoided. Regular exercise and a healthy diet may be protective factors for some types of cancer. Avoiding risk factors and increasing protective factors may lower your risk but it does not mean that you will not get cancer.
Different ways to prevent cancer are being studied, including:
See the following PDQ summaries for information about screening, diagnosis, and treatment of oral cancer:
Oral cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the lips, mouth, or throat.
Oral cancer may form in any of three main areas:
Most oral cancers start in squamous cells (thin, flat cells) that line the lips, oral cavity, and oropharynx. Cancer that forms in squamous cells is called squamous cell carcinoma. Squamous cell carcinoma can form from lesions on the mucous membranes (the lining of the mouth and throat). These lesions include leukoplakia (an abnormal white patch of cells) and erythroplakia (an abnormal red patch of cells).
In Western countries, such as the United States, the most common areas for oral cancer are the tongue and the floor of the mouth.
Oral cancer is more common in men than in women.
. Men are more than twice as likely as women to have oral cancer and die from it.
Avoiding risk factors and increasing protective factors may help prevent cancer.
Avoiding cancer risk factors may help prevent certain cancers. Risk factors include smoking, being overweight, and not getting enough exercise. Increasing protective factors such as quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet, and exercising may also help prevent some cancers. Talk to your doctor or other health care professional about how you might lower your risk of cancer.
The following are risk factors for oral cancer:
Tobacco use
Using tobacco is the leading cause of oral cancer.
All forms of tobacco, including cigarettes, pipes, cigars, and chewing (smokeless) tobacco, can cause oral cancer. For cigarette smokers, the risk of oral cancer increases with the number of cigarettes smoked per day. Tobacco use is most likely to cause oral cancer in the floor of the mouth, but also causes cancer in other parts of mouth and throat.
The risk of oral cancer is greater in people who use both tobacco and alcohol than it is in people who use only tobacco or only alcohol.
Tobacco users who have had oral cancer may develop second cancers in the oral cavity or nearby areas. These areas include the nose, throat, vocal cords, esophagus, and trachea (windpipe). This is because the oral cavity and nearby areas have been exposed to the harmful substances in tobacco, and new cancers may form over time.
Alcohol use
Using alcohol is a major risk factor for oral cancer.
The risk of oral cancer increases with the number of alcoholic drinks consumed per day. The risk of oral cancer is about twice as high in people who have 3 to 4 alcoholic drinks per day compared to those who don't drink alcohol.
The risk of oral cancer is higher in people who use both alcohol and tobacco than it is in people who use only alcohol or only tobacco.
HPV infection
Being infected with a certain type of HPV virus, especially HPV type 16, increases the risk of oral cancer. HPV infection is spread mainly through sexual contact. People who have many oral sex partners have a higher risk of HPV infection. The number of cases of oral cancer caused by HPV infection is small but increasing.
Sun exposure
Being exposed to sunlight may increase the risk of lip cancer. Lip cancer occurs most often on the lower lip.
The following is a protective factor for oral cancer:
Quitting smoking
Studies have shown that when people stop smoking cigarettes, their risk of oral cancer decreases by one-half (50%) within 5 years. Within 10 years of quitting, their risk of oral cancer is the same as for a person who never smoked cigarettes.
It is not clear whether avoiding certain risk factors will decrease the risk of oral cancer.
Certain risk factors, such as drinking alcohol, HPV infection, and sun exposure, increase the risk of oral cancer. It may seem that by avoiding these risk factors, the chance of having oral cancer would decrease, but that has not been proven.
Cancer prevention clinical trials are used to study ways to prevent cancer.
Cancer prevention clinical trials are used to study ways to lower the risk of certain types of cancer. Some cancer prevention trials are done with healthy people who have not had cancer but who have an increased risk for cancer. Other prevention trials are done with people who have had cancer and are trying to prevent another cancer of the same type or to lower their chance of developing a new type of cancer. Other trials are done with healthy volunteers who are not known to have any risk factors for cancer.
The purpose of some cancer prevention clinical trials is to find out whether actions people take can prevent cancer. These may include eating fruits and vegetables, exercising, quitting smoking, or taking certain medicines, vitamins, minerals, or food supplements.
New ways to prevent oral cancer are being studied in clinical trials.
Chemoprevention is the use of drugs, vitamins, or other agents to prevent or delay the growth of cancer. One study found no decrease in the risk of oral cancer in male smokers who took vitamin E and beta carotene supplements (pills).
Other studies of chemoprevention are being done in patients at high risk of oral cancer. This includes patients with lesions on the mucous membranes, which may become cancer, and patients with a history of oral cancer.
Clinical trials are taking place in many parts of the country. Information about clinical trials can be found in the Clinical Trials section of the NCI Web site. Check NCI's list of cancer clinical trials for lip and oral cavity cancer prevention trials and oropharyngeal cancer prevention trials that are now accepting patients.

PDQ is the National Cancer Institute's (NCI's) comprehensive cancer information database. Most of the information contained in PDQ is available online at NCI's Web site. PDQ is provided as a service of the NCI. The NCI is part of the National Institutes of Health, the federal government's focal point for biomedical research.
PDQ contains cancer information summaries.
The PDQ database contains summaries of the latest published information on cancer prevention, detection, genetics, treatment, supportive care, and complementary and alternative medicine. Most summaries are available in two versions. The health professional versions provide detailed information written in technical language. The patient versions are written in easy-to-understand, nontechnical language. Both versions provide current and accurate cancer information.

Information about using the illustrations in the PDQ summaries, along with many other cancer-related images, are available in Visuals Online, a collection of over 2,000 scientific images.
The PDQ cancer information summaries are developed by cancer experts and reviewed regularly.
Editorial Boards made up of experts in oncology and related specialties are responsible for writing and maintaining the cancer information summaries. The summaries are reviewed regularly and changes are made as new information becomes available. The date on each summary ("Date Last Modified") indicates the time of the most recent change.
PDQ also contains information on clinical trials.
A clinical trial is a study to answer a scientific question, such as whether a certain drug or nutrient can prevent cancer. Trials are based on past studies and what has been learned in the laboratory. Each trial answers certain scientific questions in order to find new and better ways to help cancer patients and those who are at risk for cancer. During prevention clinical trials, information is collected about the effects of a new prevention method and how well it works. If a clinical trial shows that a new method is better than one currently being used, the new method may become "standard." People who are at high risk for a certain type of cancer may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial.
Listings of clinical trials are included in PDQ and are available online at NCI's Web site. Descriptions of the trials are available in health professional and patient versions. Many cancer doctors who take part in clinical trials are also listed in PDQ. For more information, call the Cancer Information Service 1-800-4-CANCER (1-800-422-6237).

The West Butte Wind Energy Project will comprise up to fifty-two 2-3MW wind turbines in Deschutes and Crook Counties, Oregon.
View Larger Map
It is one of four schemes approved by Salazar last Thursday — the others being two utility-scale solar developments in California and a transmission line in Southern California to service large-scale solar in the region.
In addition, the Department of Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has issued Notices of Intent to begin environmental analyses of two wind projects and a solar-energy project located in California with a combined generating capacity of more than 370MW.
West Butte had to be cleared by Salazar because it includes an access road and transmission line that would cross about 4.5 miles of BLM lands.
As part of the clearance given by Salazar, BLM is requiring the developer — West Butte Wind Power — to mitigate 9,000 acres of sage grouse habitat by providing funding for the restoration and enhancement of a similar amount and type of habitat on BLM lands.
The company will also provide funds through Crook County to purchase conservation easements for sage grouse management, work with the US Fish and Wildlife Service to develop an Avian (golden eagle) and Bat Protection Plan and prepar a Wildlife Mitigation and Monitoring Plan.

Drew Barrymore's Wedding Dress: Chanel
Drew Barrymore is now Mrs. Will Kopelman! After getting engaged to her art consultant beau over the winter break—with a nearly four-carat D-color, radiant-cut ring by Graff Diamonds, seen here—the pair tied the knot in a quiet ceremony at her Montecito, California estate yesterday, People reports. The bride wore a custom gown by Chanel, which is not only one of her favorite labels, but also the company her new father-in-law Arie Kopelman used to run as the former CEO. Earlier this year, Barrymore told us she wanted her dress to be "something tasteful, something timeless," and with a pick like Chanel, we bet it was both!

Crumb Cake Recipes
Chestnut Crumb Coffee Cake
For brunch, the girls and I made a crumb coffee cake flavored with chestnut purée, and a streusel topping made with cinnamon and brown sugar for a rich, caramel flavor. Buttermilk gives a moist texture to the coffee cake; the result was just divine. Chestnut may not be a common flavor for coffee cake, but I guarantee that after tasting it, you'll be hooked.
I served the coffee cake with a big pot of masala chai. We all enjoyed ourselves. Hope your weekend is as relaxing and peaceful as ours!

Cranberry Bars with Chestnut Spread and Crushed Pecans
As Thanksgiving approaches, I've been giving more thought to new dessert recipes to go with the traditional pecan and pumpkin pies that we make each year. I recently had an absolutely delicious lemon bar, and it occurred to me that a modified cranberry sauce would be a good substitute for the lemon curd.
I used shortbread as the cookie layer. Shortbread is very easy to make, and the buttery and crumbly texture is a nice foil to the sweet and tart flavor of the cranberries. Once the shortbread had baked, I spread a thin layer of chestnut spread over it. The chestnut spread balances the tartness of the jellied cranberries.
To make the cranberry jelly, I added guava in place of the usual orange juice to give the jelly sweetness as well as a more complex flavor. (It also reminds me of our recent anniversary trip to Cancun). Guava is not really in keeping with the season, so if you prefer, apple juice would be fine, but I think the guava has more depth. The goal is to limit the sourness of the jelly because after all, we're making a dessert.
After applying a generous layer of the cranberry spread to the bars, I finished them with a sprinkling of chopped pecans.

Security is about protecting data, that is, how to prevent unauthorized access or damage to data that is in storage or in transit. The Enterprise Server is built on the Java security model, which uses a sandbox where applications can run safely, without potential risk to systems or users. System security affects all the applications in the Enterprise Server environment.
System security features include the following:
Authentication is the way in which an entity (a user, an application, or a component) determines that another entity is who it claims to be. An entity uses security credentials to authenticate itself. The credentials might be a user name and password, a digital certificate, or something else. Usually, servers or applications require clients to authenticate themselves. Additionally, clients might require servers to authenticate themselves. When authentication is bidirectional, it is called mutual authentication.
When an entity tries to access a protected resource, Enterprise Server uses the authentication mechanism configured for that resource to determine whether to grant access. For example, a user can enter a user name and password in a web browser, and if the application verifies those credentials, the user is authenticated. The user is associated with this authenticated security identity for the remainder of the session.
Within its deployment descriptors, an application specifies the type of authentication that it uses. Enterprise Server supports the following types of authentication:
Uses the server's built-in login dialog box. The communication protocol is HTTP (SSL optional). There is no user-credentialed encryption unless using SSL.
The application provides its own custom login and error pages. The communication protocol is HTTP (SSL optional). There is no user-credentialed encryption unless using SSL.
The server authenticates the client using a public key certificate. The communication protocol is HTTPS (HTTP over SSL). User-credentialed encryption is SSL.
The server authenticates a user based on a user name and a password. The authentication is performed by transmitting the password in an encrypted form which is much more secure than the simple Base64 encoding used by BASIC authentication. The communication protocol is HTTPS.
Passwords are your first line of defense against unauthorized access to the components and data of Enterprise Server. For Information about how to use passwords for Enterprise Server, see Administering Passwords.
The master password is an overall shared password and is the most sensitive piece of data in the system. It is never used for authentication and is never transmitted over the network. You can choose to enter the master password manually when required, or obscure it in a file.
The master password is the password for the secure keystore. When a new application server domain is created, a new self-signed certificate is generated and stored in the relevant keystore, which is locked using the master password (default password changeit). If the master password is not the default (that is, you have changed it), you are prompted for the master password. After the correct master password is entered, the domain starts.
The administration password, also known as the admin password, is used to invoke the Administration Console and the asadmin utility. This password is usually set during installation, but it can be changed. For instructions, see To Change the Administration Password.
Files that contain encoded passwords need to be protected using file system permissions. These files include the following:
This file contains the encoded master password and should be protected with file system permissions 600.
Any password file created to pass as an argument by using the --passwordfile argument to the asadmin utility should be protected with file system permissions 600.
For instructions, see To Set a Password From a File.
To avoid storing passwords in the domain configuration file in clear text, you can create an alias for a password. This process is also known as encrypting a password. For more information, see Administering Password Aliases.
With single sign-on, a user who logs in to one application becomes implicitly logged in to other applications that require the same authentication information. Single sign-on is based on groups. All web applications whose deployment descriptor defines the same group and uses the same authentication method (BASIC, FORM, or CLIENT-CERT) share single sign-on.
On Enterprise Server, single sign-on is enabled by default for virtual servers, allowing multiple applications in one virtual server to share the user authentication state.
Authorization, also known as access control, is the means by which users are granted permission to access data or perform operations. After a user is authenticated, the user's level of authorization determines what operations the owner can perform. A user's authorization is based on the user's role.
A role defines which applications and what parts of each application users can access and what those users or groups can do with the applications. For example, in a personnel application, all employees might be able to see phone numbers and email addresses, but only managers have access to salary information. This application would define at least two roles: employee and manager. Only users in the manager role are allowed to view salary information.
A role is different from a group in that a role defines a function in an application, while a group is a set of users who are related in some way. For example, the personnel application specify groups such as full-time, part-time, and on-leave. Users in these groups are all employees (the employee role). In addition, each user has its own designation that defines an additional level of employment.
Roles are defined in the deployment descriptor for the application. The application developer or deployer maps roles to one or more groups in the deployment descriptor for each application. When the application is being packaged and deployed, the application specifies mappings between users, groups, and roles, as illustrated in the following figure.
Java Authorization Contract for Containers (JACC) is the part of the Java EE specification that defines an interface for pluggable authorization providers. This enables you to set up third-party plug-in modules to perform authorization. By default, the Enterprise Server provides a simple, file-based authorization engine that complies with the JACC specification. You can also specify additional third-party JACC providers.
JACC providers use the Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) APIs. JAAS enables services to authenticate and enforce access controls upon users. JAAS implements a Java technology version of the standard Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) framework.
JSR 196 allows you to develop plugins at different layers. You can define plugins that change the way new authentication mechanism are configured, such as, AuthConfigProvider and AuthConfigFactory. You can also define new authentication mechanisms, such as ServerAuthModule and ClientAuthModule.
Auditing is the means used to capture security-related events for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of security measures. Enterprise Server uses audit modules to capture audit trails of all authentication and authorization decisions. Enterprise Server provides a default audit module, as well as the ability to customize the audit modules.
For administration instructions, see Administering Audit Modules.
A firewall controls the flow of data between two or more networks, and manages the links between the networks. A firewall can consist of both hardware and software elements. The following guidelines pertain primarily to Enterprise Server:
In general, firewalls should be configured so that clients can access the necessary TCP/IP ports.
For example, if the HTTP listener is operating on port 8080, configure the firewall to allow HTTP requests on port 8080 only. Likewise, if HTTPS requests are set up for port 8081, you must configure the firewalls to allow HTTPS requests on port 8081.
If direct Remote Method Invocations over Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (RMI-IIOP) access from the Internet to EJB modules is required, open the RMI-IIOP listener port as well.
Opening the RMI-IIOP listener port is strongly discouraged because it creates security risks.
In double firewall architecture, you must configure the outer firewall to allow for HTTP and HTTPS transactions. You must configure the inner firewall to allow the HTTP server plug-in to communicate with Enterprise Server behind the firewall.
The following topics are addressed here:
For administration instructions, see Administering JSSE Certificates .
Certificates, also called digital certificates, are electronic files that uniquely identify people and resources on the Internet. Certificates also enable secure, confidential communication between two entities. There are different kinds of certificates:
Personal certificates are used by individuals.
Server certificates are used to establish secure sessions between the server and clients through secure sockets layer (SSL) technology.
Certificates are based on public key cryptography, which uses pairs of digital keys (very long numbers) to encrypt, or encode, information so the information can be read only by its intended recipient. The recipient then decrypts (decodes) the information to read it. A key pair contains a public key and a private key. The owner distributes the public key and makes it available to anyone. But the owner never distributes the private key, which is always kept secret. Because the keys are mathematically related, data encrypted with one key can only be decrypted with the other key in the pair.
Certificates are issued by a trusted third party called a Certification Authority (CA). The CA is analogous to a passport office: it validates the certificate holder's identity and signs the certificate so that it cannot be forged or tampered with. After a CA has signed a certificate, the holder can present it as proof of identity and to establish encrypted, confidential communications. Most importantly, a certificate binds the owner's public key to the owner's identity.
In addition to the public key, a certificate typically includes information such as the following:
The name of the holder and other identification, such as the URL of the web server using the certificate, or an individual's email address
The name of the CA that issued the certificate
An expiration date
Certificates are governed by the technical specifications of the X.509 format. To verify the identity of a user in the certificate realm, the authentication service verifies an X.509 certificate, using the common name field of the X.509 certificate as the principal name.
A certificate chain is a series of certificates issued by successive CA certificates, eventually ending in a root CA certificate.
Web browsers are preconfigured with a set of root CA certificates that the browser automatically trusts. Any certificates from elsewhere must come with a certificate chain to verify their validity.
When a certificate is first generated, it is a self-signed certificate. A self-signed certificate is one for which the issuer (signer) is the same as the subject (the entity whose public key is being authenticated by the certificate). When the owner sends a certificate signing request (CSR) to a CA, then imports the response, the self-signed certificate is replaced by a chain of certificates. At the bottom of the chain is the certificate (reply) issued by the CA authenticating the subject's public key. The next certificate in the chain is one that authenticates the CA's public key. Usually, this is a self-signed certificate (that is, a certificate from the CA authenticating its own public key) and the last certificate in the chain.
In other cases, the CA can return a chain of certificates. In this situation, the bottom certificate in the chain is the same (a certificate signed by the CA, authenticating the public key of the key entry), but the second certificate in the chain is a certificate signed by a different CA, authenticating the public key of the CA to which you sent the CSR. Then, the next certificate in the chain is a certificate authenticating the second CA's key, and so on, until a self-signed root certificate is reached. Each certificate in the chain (after the first) thus authenticates the public key of the signer of the previous certificate in the chain.
During Enterprise Server installation, a certificate is generated in Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) format suitable for internal testing. By default, Enterprise Server stores its certificate information in certificate databases in the domain-dir/config directory:
The key3.db file contains Enterprise Server certificate, including its private key. The keystore file is protected with a password.
Each keystore entry has a unique alias. After installation, the Enterprise Server keystore has a single entry with an alias of s1as.
The cert8.db file contains the Enterprise Server trusted certificates, including public keys for other entities. For a trusted certificate, the server has confirmed that the public key in the certificate belongs to the certificate's owner. Trusted certificates generally include those of CAs.
By default, Enterprise Server is configured with a keystore and truststore that will work with the example applications and for development purposes.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is the most popular standard for securing Internet communications and transactions. Secure web applications use HTTPS (HTTP over SSL). The HTTPS protocol uses certificates to ensure confidential and secure communications between server and clients. In an SSL connection, both the client and the server encrypt data before sending it. Data is decrypted upon receipt.
When a Web browser (client) wants to connect to a secure site, an SSL handshake happens, like this:
The browser sends a message over the network requesting a secure session (typically, by requesting a URL that begins with https instead of http).
The server responds by sending its certificate (including its public key).
The browser verifies that the server's certificate is valid and is signed by a CA whose certificate is in the browser's database (and who is trusted). It also verifies that the CA certificate has not expired.
If the certificate is valid, the browser generates a one time, unique session key and encrypts it with the server's public key. The browser then sends the encrypted session key to the server so that they both have a copy.
The server decrypts the message using its private key and recovers the session key.
After the handshake, the client has verified the identity of the Web site, and only the client and the Web server have a copy of the session key. From this point forward, the client and the server use the session key to encrypt all their communications with each other. Thus, their communications are ensured to be secure.
The newest version of the SSL standard is called Transport Layer Security (TLS). The Enterprise Server supports the SSL 3.0 and the TLS 1.0 encryption protocols.
To use SSL, Enterprise Server must have a certificate for each external interface or IP address that accepts secure connections. The HTTPS service of most web servers will not run unless a certificate has been installed. For instructions on applying SSL to HTTP listeners, see To Configure an HTTP Listener for SSL.
A cipher is a cryptographic algorithm used for encryption or decryption. SSL and TLS protocols support a variety of ciphers used to authenticate the server and client to each other, transmit certificates, and establish session keys.
Some ciphers are stronger and more secure than others. Clients and servers can support different cipher suites. During a secure connection, the client and the server agree to use the strongest cipher that they both have enabled for communication, so it is usually sufficient to enable all ciphers.
Using name-based virtual hosts for a secure application can be problematic. This is a design limitation of the SSL protocol itself. The SSL handshake, where the client browser accepts the server certificate, must occur before the HTTP request is accessed. As a result, the request information containing the virtual host name cannot be determined prior to authentication, and it is therefore not possible to assign multiple certificates to a single IP address.
If all virtual hosts on a single IP address need to authenticate against the same certificate, the addition of multiple virtual hosts probably will not interfere with normal SSL operations on the server. Be aware, however, that most browsers will compare the server's domain name against the domain name listed in the certificate, if any (applicable primarily to official, CA-signed certificates). If the domain names do not match, these browsers display a warning. In general, only address-based virtual hosts are commonly used with SSL in a production environment.
Enterprise Server provides the following tools for managing system security:
The Administration Console is a browser-based utility used to configure security for the entire server. Tasks include managing certificates, users, groups, and realms, and performing other system-wide security tasks. For a general introduction to the Administration Console, see Administration Console.
The asadmin command-line utility performs many of the same tasks as the Administration Console. You might be able to do some things with the asadmin utility that you cannot do with the Administration Console. For a general introduction to asadmin, see asadmin Utility.
The keytool Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) command-line utility is used for managing digital certificates and key pairs. For more information, see Administering JSSE Certificates .
The policytool J2SE graphical utility is used for managing system-wide Java security policies. As an administrator, you rarely use policytool.
For more information about using keytool, policytool, and other Java security tools, see Java 2 SDK Tools and Utilities at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/tooldocs/tools.html#security.

Brian Mullan, winner of five MLS Cups in a long U.S. pro career, re-signed to a veteran contract to return for a fifth season with the Rapids, the team announced Tuesday.
Terms of the deal were not announced, although it's likely, based on similar past deals, that Mullan's is a one-year contract at a reduced salary. Colorado may also have an option on the deal beyond that.
Mullan, 35, took in $170,335 in salary last season, according to the MLS Players Union. But he played in just 16 games in the first half of the year. His final game of the season came as a 36-minute substitution on July 7.

"We believe that President Bush lied.
We believe that Prime Minister Blair lied.
We believe that when Hillary Clinton and Dick Gephardt voted for the war based on the same intelligence relied upon by Bush and Blair, they made reasonable decisions based on the intelligence available at the time.
"We believe that the administration did not make the case for war;
We believe that the administration offered many different reasons but could not offer a coherent message explaining the need to go to war;
We believe that the administration made perfectly clear that the only reason we were going to war was because of the threat from WMDs.
"We believe that no one should question our statement that we 'support our troops;'
We believe that the best thing that could happen for this country would be for Bush to lose in November;
We believe that the best way for Bush to lose in November is for the Iraq effort to go poorly, even if that means that more Iraqis and troops will die;
We believe that most of the troops are minorities and the poor;
We believe that when the word 'heroes' is used to describe our troops, it should always be enclosed in scare quotes.

Candy cap mushrooms cannot be found in the Halloween candy aisle of your grocery store. Candy cap mushrooms do not contain artificial sweeteners or additives of any kind; they have one ingredient: mushroom. Why the name? Candy cap mushrooms are sweet, making them one of the only mushroom varieties recommended for use in desserts.
The Best Thing About Candy Cap Mushrooms
The best thing about candy cap mushrooms is that they smell like this:
If you are now craving pancakes, check out my pancake recipe.
Every time I came home from an errand for the first few days after receiving a package from Oregon Mushrooms with the dried candy caps, I imagined a server at IHOP greeting me and telling me about the Rooty Tooty Fresh N' Fruity.
Not only did the dried candy caps smell like breakfast, the shipping box they came in even retained the smell. I opened the box (not the sealed package in the box) in our bedroom, and for days it was like I was sleeping in a vat of maple syrup. This might disgust some of you. But, for me, it was like the pure joy of Scrooge McDuck swimming in money.
The scent of the candy caps was completely intoxicating. Since Oregon Mushrooms was kind enough to send me 4 oz to play with, I decided to try three different recipes with the candy caps. I made a soup, cookies, and of course, cupcakes. In upcoming posts, I'll tell you about the different techniques that I used with the mushrooms and my varying levels of success.
If you want to try out – and improve upon – some of my recipes, be sure to pick up your Halloween candy at Oregon Mushrooms.

Eh, seemed to remember this being mentioned over at FPL...anywho, site design could use some work, as I cannot tell the forward/back buttons from the background, and, speaking of background, the comic's background could use some work...
...otherwise, the comics's pretty good, could use some stronger punchlines, but it's doable. All in all, I give it a 5 out of 10.
Oh, it'd be a shame to leave without plugging my comic, now wouldn't it?
You know..
Eh, I may not be back to read more, considering I already read about 8 webcomics, but, thought it was worth a look-over at least once. Can't say the comic lives up to the "sonic on crack" image...meh.

The four-year graduation rate at Tupelo High has finally crept above 85 percent, a goal district officials set five years ago and have been reaching for ever since.
Education reporter Emma Kent (15:03) co-hosts today's show with Brad and also talks about those efforts at Tupelo High.
The school's graduation rate was around 70 percent in 2011. Now, it is about 86.7 percent. Principal Jason Harris said getting students from ninth grade to graduation depends on building relationships with students and keeping teachers focused. Teachers at THS also have made a concerted effort to monitor students who struggle academically and look for ways to help them.
Also on today's show, business editor Dennis Seid (21:29) talks about last-minute holiday shopping. Studies say that about 60 percent of consumers had not completed their shopping as of Dec. 13. Retailers also are expecting a 3.6 percent increase in sales this year.
Dennis also talks about the Tupelo High band (25:43) being chosen to participate in the presidential inauguration on Jan. 20. But first, the program must raise about $100,000 to send all 150 of its members to the event.
M. Scott Morris (34:32) reviews "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story." Derek (42:29) has the highlights of this weekend's entertainment scene, including SremmFest 2016.

Thanksgiving for Two: One Pan, One Hour
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday.
My family has a fabulous tradition of popping open a bottle of good champagne, and going around the table before dinner, toasting what each person is thankful for. We eat the American classics: roast turkey (the traditional beneficiary of the last toast) and pumpkin pie (at my insistence) and corn bread. And we temper it with some French flavor to keep the rest of the family happy: potato gratin, apple cider sorbet (contentious!), and haricots verts.
But now I live in London. My family is an ocean away. My husband is English. And I go to work like it's any other Thursday. But even though I come home at 8 o'clock, tired and hungry, I can't let the day go unmarked. We still uncork a cold bottle of champagne and say our own version of unorthodox grace, but for the two of us—especially at that hour—it's just not worth a pulling together a whole turkey with all the trimmings.
So this year I'm doing Thanksgiving for two, in one pan, in one hour. I start with a turkey roast, off the bone, and cook it with thyme, orange, and lemon. In the same pan go the carrots (I found some gorgeous purple ones), which become olive oil-smashed carrots—a festive fall upgrade on mashed potatoes. And on the other side of the pan, Brussels sprouts and chestnuts, which come out singed and festive. A simple jus brews at the bottom of the pan, mingling with the sweet carrots, tart citrus, and savory thyme and sprouts. After an hour or so in the oven, the turkey is ready to slice, the carrots are ready to be quickly puréed, and the Brussels sprouts are soft and charred. If I'm feeling ambitious, I'll stew together some cranberries and ginger jam, to serve alongside.
By ten o'clock, I'm on the couch, licking pumpkin pie off my fork, and watching TV in true Thanksgiving style. No, it's not the Thanksgiving I'm used to, but it's marvelous, and very appropriate for this moment of my life. And it's that life I'm thankful for, even if it requires a little bit of holiday creativity.

Another southern Utah county has filed criminal charges against the skilled wilderness survivalist whose random cabin burglaries have vexed police for five years.
The Iron County Attorney on Friday obtained an arrest warrant for Troy James Knapp, charging him with four felony counts of burglary, one felony count of theft and three misdemeanor counts of theft. Iron County jumped on board with Kane and Garfield counties who also have issued warrants against the 45-year-old, bringing the number of outstanding charges statewide against Knapp to 13 felonies and five misdemeanors.
The warrant outlines four reported burglaries between 2009 and 2011 to cabins on Summit Mountain and Cedar Mountain that investigators believe are tied to Knapp. The burglaries fit the profile established investigators from other counties: the cabins were broken into and had been lived in for a period of time. If anything was taken, it was usually food or alcohol. In one burglary, the owner reported that a .22-caliber pistol was stolen along with a Dutch oven.
The owner also told police that someone had eaten some food, burned firewood and washed some dishes, although they weren't put away.
Iron County deputies found that the fingerprints in each of the burglarized cabins belonging to Knapp, according to court documents. Although Iron County issued its warrant against Knapp on Friday, it is believed that the mountain man began his alleged crime spree there sometime in 2007. A hunter's remote camera that snapped a photo of him at the scene of a burglary near Zion National Park helped authorities to finally identify Knapp in February.
Knapp has a lengthy criminal record dating back to 1985 when he was charged with breaking and entering and receiving stolen property in Kalamazoo County, Mich. In 1994, he was charged out of Salt Lake County with disturbing the peace, and in 1996 he was charged out of Seattle Municipal Court with harassment. Each charge was later dismissed. According to court documents, Knapp was sent to prison on a burglary conviction in California in 2000 and was paroled in 2002.
Knapp has steadily been moving north through back country wilderness, leaving behind makeshift camps and caches of food and weapons. He was last spotted on Oct. 1 by another surveillance camera in Sanpete County. Law enforcement from Sanpete and Sevier counties, with air support from a Department of Public Safety helicopter, searched in vain for him after that burglary. The U.S. Marshals also have been on his trail for the past few years.
"The defendant's whereabouts are currently unknown, and law enforcement has reason to believe that the defendant is evading arrest and intending to remain at large for as long as he can," the Iron County warrant reads.
