What scares you most about traveling? Bad taxi drivers.
Watched the show since Seasons 3 and 5? I know who I'm rooting for.
Addie, I can't remember who it was, but I believe I can guess where it was and what the task was. "The mountains" are prevalant around Innsbruck, Austria and the task was sliding on a toboggan-equivalent down a hill. Somebody was not willing to wait for their turn on the toboggan and slid down on their backs.
Really looking forward to seeing these two on the show. They look like they'll have a lot of interesting interactions, and both seem to have a good sense of humor. Should be fun to watch!
During the show's sixth season, Wojnar watched as a tall woman and a short woman competed together on a team, which gave him the idea that he and Chiola should try out for the show. Wojnar is 6-foot-6, and Chiola is 5-foot-2.
They're already being super strategic. While I admire their desire to win, they're definitely not going to make many friends with their tactics. They weren't one of my favourites before the race and they definitely aren't one of mine now.

Main Street in Hills will be closed starting tomorrow.
City Clerk Bonnie Hansen says that the City of Hills and the DOT are upgrading the railroad tracks and will be tearing up the old track on Main Street.
The street will be closed to everything but foot traffic west of the tracks. Old 218 will be inaccessible, so residents will have to take Sand Road and 520th street to get in and out of town.
This project will continue through June 30th depending on weather conditions.

Choosing Sides by Tara Mataraza Desmond
For the past several weeks, we have welcomed Tara Mataraza Desmond to The Kitchn to share her recommendations for great side dishes to go with our most favorite meals, like Fiery Kale with pizza and Pan-Seared Squash with roast chicken. After all, Tara is the expert on such things. So much of an expert that she has written an entire book with the sole purpose of helping us prepare creative, super-tasty sides for everything from Spaghetti Night to Thanksgiving dinner. Choosing Sides is the cookbook that fills the gap in our meal planning and gives a little love to the humble foods that go on the side.
Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: Tara Mataraza Desmond
• Who published it: Andrews McMeel
• Number of recipes: 130
• Recipes for right now: Andouille Frittata Bites, Cheddar Pepper Scones, Multi-Grain Pretzel Knots, Red Grape and Bacon Salad, Chimichurri Green Beans, Smoked Gouda Grits, Golden Cauliflower with Herbed Breadcrumbs, Warm Kale Cannellini, Roasted Acorn Squash with Orange Oil
• Other highlights: In Choosing Sides, Tara Mataraza Desmond acknowledges something that few of us consider: side dishes are important. Maybe they're not as show-stopping as a roast turkey or a cheesy multi-layered lasagna, but they are still a major part of what makes meal a meal. As such, they deserve to be more than an afterthought.
This book comes packed with ideas for side dishes of every sort — some feel as familiar and loved as a favorite shirt while others will shake you out of a rut with their inventive riffs. Flip to the chapter on weeknight dinners for simple sides like chimichurri green beans and smoked gouda grits, or flip to the chapter on potlucks and parties when your host assigns you to bring the side dish for ideas like jalapeno poppers and spicy peanut noodles. Other sections cover breads, brunch- and lunch-worthy sides, salads, side dishes for cookouts and small parties, and holiday sides. Every recipe also includes a long list of suggested pairings with main dishes, making it easy to decide exactly what to make with what you're serving.
Tara also keeps it real with these recipes. While the sides are important, she also knows that your main focus — and most of your time — is probably still going to be on the main dish. As such, most of the recipes come together quickly and are made with just some staple ingredients. More labor-intensive sides, like quiche for a brunch or a plate of dinner rolls for a party, can often be made ahead and warmed before serving. There are also plenty of tips along the way for making prep work go more quickly or guiding you quickly through the grocery store to the right kind of ingredient.
I am very happy to have this book by my side as we head into the upcoming months of holiday entertaining. I can already tell that some of many of these recipes are destined to become regulars in my repertoire.
• Who would enjoy this book? All home cooks, but especially cooks who do a lot of entertaining and people cooking for large families. Any of you who do catering or work as home chefs would also find this to be a great resource.
Find the book at your local library, independent bookstore, or Amazon: Choosing Sides by Tara Mataraza Desmond

Jack Brooks hounded government bureaucrats, drafted articles of impeachment against President Nixon and was a strong supporter of civil rights in a congressional career that spanned four decades. But the Texas politician was perhaps best known for his appearance in a single photograph.
Brooks is frozen in that November 1963 image, standing behind a grief-stricken Jacqueline Kennedy as Lyndon B. Johnson takes the oath of office aboard Air Force One. Hours earlier, Brooks had been in the Dallas motorcade when President Kennedy was assassinated.
Brooks died Tuesday at a Beaumont, Texas, hospital after a sudden illness, according to a statement from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department. He was 89.
The irascible, cigar-smoking Brooks was the last survivor of a group known as "Mr. Sam's Boys," proteges in the Texas congressional delegation of legendary Democratic House Speaker Sam Rayburn, a fellow Texan who spent 17 years in the post.
"I'm just like old man Rayburn," Brooks once said. "Just a Democrat, no prefix or suffix."
Vice President Joe Biden, who was chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee when Brooks headed its counterpart in the House, said "he was a Texan through and through."
He was "tough, bold, and bigger than life," Biden said in a statement. "He lived by principles that were carved into his heart, and he was never afraid to fight for what he believed in."
First elected to the House in 1952, Brooks was returned to office 20 times by his southeast Texas district. He was ousted in the Republican revolution of 1994.
Rayburn appointed Brooks to the House Government Operations Committee, a panel he eventually chaired. Peering at witnesses over his glasses as he chewed on a cigar, he became known as a scourge of bureaucrats, grilling them for wasting taxpayers' money.
"I never thought being a congressman was supposed to be an easy job, and it doesn't bother me a bit to be in a good fight," Brooks once said.
He authored a law that required full and open competition to be the standard for awarding federal contracts and another that established independent offices of inspector general in major agencies to prevent fraud and waste. Other Brooks bills reduced federal paperwork, provided a uniform system of federal procurement, eliminated overlapping audit requirements and established the Department of Education.
"He literally has saved American taxpayers billions of dollars through his actions in improving government efficiency and eliminating waste," former Texas Gov. Dolph Briscoe, a longtime friend, said in 2008 when Brooks donated his congressional papers and other items to the Center for American History at the University of Texas. Briscoe died in 2010.
Brooks also served on the House Judiciary Committee, where he supported Nixon's impeachment and drafted the articles of impeachment adopted by the panel. Nixon, who resigned Aug. 9, 1974, referred to Brooks as "the executioner."
Jack Bascom Brooks was born Dec. 18, 1922, in Crowley, La., and moved to Texas at age 5.
He attended Lamar University in Beaumont, later earning a bachelor's degree in journalism and a law degree from the University of Texas. He served with the Marines in the Pacific during World War II and retired as a colonel from the Marine Corps Reserves in 1972. At 29, he was elected to the U.S. House after two terms in the Texas state legislature.
He supported civil rights bills, refused to sign the segregationist "Southern manifesto" in 1956 and helped write the historic Civil Rights Act of 1964.
His support of abortion rights and a ban on assault weapons were considered factors when he lost his congressional seat in 1994 during an election season in which many Republicans triumphed over long-serving Democrats.
In 1960, Brooks married Charlotte Collins. The couple had three children, Jeb Brooks, Kate Brooks Carroll and Kim Brooks, and two grandchildren.

Goodbye, Win XP - Hello, Linux?
Dec 11, 2013 5:00 AM PT
Microsoft will stop security support for Windows XP this coming April, meaning that more than a few remaining users of the long-standing OS need to come up with an alternative plan.
Almost a third of desktop computers still run Windows XP, according to Net Applications. Perhaps even more concerning, more than 15 percent of midsize and large enterprises will still have Windows XP running on at least 10 percent of their PCs after Microsoft support ends, Gartner estimates.
To avoid critical security and usage issues, current XP users need to undergo some massive systems migrations.
'You Might as Well Switch to Linux'
Transitions like that are never quick or easy, even if it's simply to a newer version of the same operating system. Given how much has changed along the way to Microsoft's Windows 8, that's more certain than ever to be true this time around.
At the same time, there is an increasingly compelling alternative some say may offer a smoother and easier transition.
It's robust, it's secure, it's compatible with older hardware, and it's free. Its name, of course, is Linux.
"Since you are going to have to learn a new way of doing things with Windows 8.1, you might as well switch to Linux, which is known for being safe and secure," Bill Reynolds, founder and owner of PCLinuxOS, told LinuxInsider.
'A Viable Alternative'
Indeed, in migrating from XP, there has been a large push for Windows 7 and Windows 8, but also Linux desktop solutions, Deepak Kumar, the founder and CTO of Adaptiva, told LinuxInsider. Linux is a viable alternative to Windows, and many corporations may find it more stable as it is a long-standing platform. [*Correction - Jan. 14, 2014]
Kumar sees potential for increased adoption of Linux now that XP is retiring, but it will happen slowly because of how entrenched the Windows platform is in the business world, he said. Moving to Linux would require a different set of skills in employees, system administrators and IT professionals, Kumar pointed out.
One of the biggest stumbling blocks on the way to unfettered adoption of Linux by Windows XP users is the upgrade path that encourages customers to stay with the Windows platform. It is already in place -- good or bad -- while the Linux OS is not always marketed as an option.
"If Windows 7 was not still going to be available, then the Linux OS might be able to gain a foothold," Mark Lewandowski, founder of Riverfront Technology Consulting, told LinuxInsider.
"I think it will be hard for Linux to break into the workplace," Lewandowski added. "One issue is the talent pool; another is that support for Linux across the high end in enterprise is lacking."
Familiarity Trumps Usability
Linux may have lost at least some of its appeal for migrating Windows users when Microsoft agreed to user interface concessions in its latest Windows 8.1 release, according to Norman Rosenthal, principal and owner of Sterling Rose Consulting.
Rosenthal now sees a loss of interest in migrating to Linux among SMBs as a result.
"As long as users can continue to click on a button to put a semblance of the Windows 7 Start menu, users will be hesitant to move to another platform that will require them to learn a new interface," he told LinuxInsider.
The current situation mirrors what happened in the 1990s when Apple was trying to break into the business arena with the Macintosh platform, Rosenthal pointed out. Back then, specifically, people were reluctant to switch to Macs even though the platform had its own graphical interface.
Regarding Linux, "the hesitancy involves skepticism for the whole arena of what is going on with technology today," said Rosenthal. "Windows remains their comfort level in that regard."
Not Just One OS
The two biggest impediments that the Linux OS faces as an alternative to Windows XP are the supply chain and a lack of marketing, Mason Uyeda, senior director of technical marketing for end-user computing at VMware, told LinuxInsider.
"How do you get all support to a common platform?" Uyeda asked. "Linux has too many distros. So the Linux supply chain issue needs to be solved first."
Users need assurance that everything that needs to be connected will be, for example. Right now, however, there are no major OEMs supplying Linux drivers. Linux also has some issues on the virtual machine level, which is a critical concern for extended enterprise use, noted Uyeda.
No Easy Solution
Users could eventually overcome their misconceptions about Linux's user interface, but an overriding issue remains the reality that businesses still thrive on Windows programs, according to Uyeda.
"You can not just plug in a Linux desktop replacement," he asserted. "Even if you solve the Linux desktop problems by figuring out the distro differences, you still have the obstacle of applications to use."
Most businesses still on XP have now worked up plans to move to Windows 7 or Windows 8, and both Windows options are surprisingly tolerant of older hardware and will likely work on most machines, according to Al Hilwa, program director for applications development software at IDC.
"Will there be difficulty to support hardware with more modern Windows releases? I expect the answer is 'yes,' but configuring Linux is not a day at the beach either," Hilwa concluded. "I think there is an after-market for older PCs, and most will end up either running XP unsupported or be converted to run Linux."
*ECT News Network editor's note - Jan. 14, 2014: Our original published version of this story directly quoted Deepak Kumar as saying, "in migrating from XP, there has been a large push for Windows 7 and Windows 8, but also Linux desktop solutions. Linux is a viable alternative to Windows, and many corporations may find it more stable as it is a long-standing platform." In fact, Adaptiva's PR rep, Katie Beason, provided the comment to LinuxInsider in the context of "offering some insights from Deepak Kumar," which were not intended to be direct quotes.

Civilians played by Silverdream
The town's mayor is terrible bored. Nothing ever happens here.
He takes one of the OTCs decorating his office...
...only to realize the closet is not a microwave oven. He now has some money and gold in his hands but is still bored.
The gothic couple living in the black house open a chest.
They find a knife and a blaster. An arguments ensues which is better: to hurt yourself (that's what he says) or
to hurt others (that's what she says).
In the small yellow house by the road the explorer examines his chest. "Yes, it looks genuinely antique. How fascinating!"
Meanhile on the town hall's first floor the town clerks decide to have lunch.
There are only apples for two of the clerks. The third is pretty pissed about that. You cannot eat a sextant!
The patron in the McDonald's adresses the peach guest: "Did you hear about The Peach Massacre of G.R. 2010?
I hear it took place in a McDonald's, lol."
The peach gets upset and calls his peach friends. Unfortunately, he is the only peach to be found in and around Briktopia.
The chef reviews his stuff. "Buns, check! Frying pan, check!, Mustard, check!, Head Separator, check!"
"Hey Cagney, hop on! Let's harrass some people for the sake of it!" - "Sure thing!"

She Who Must Be Obeyed
Fans of dubious literature, cheesy movies, or British television series may recognize that phrase. The first time I encountered it was in the H. Rider Haggard novel, "She", about a 3,000 year old woman who, along with another woman's husband, skipped out on all that Egyptian empire nonsense with pharaohs and mummies and whatnot. They ventured into uncharted Africa where She found the secret of eternal youth by bathing in the eternal flame of whatever. Conveniently, her lover died, otherwise the book wouldn't have had much of a plot. Jump forward a couple of millennial to some English adventurers exploring that same uncharted Africa when they stumble across She and her entourage. Hijinks ensue.
Someone just had to make a movie version of the book, of course, and they did so back in the 60s. It starred Ursula Andress as She. The whole thing leads up to her bathing in the flame thing again in order to show her new lover - the spittin' image of the old one who was apparently reincarnated - that the flames were indeed safe and USDA approved. She had to bathe naked or nearly naked, since her clothing would have caught fire, you know. To our lurid teenage imaginations there was little difference. Trust me, you won't watch this for the acting.
The movie inspired me. Oofda! I'd seen Ann Margret in "Bye, Bye, Birdie" too, and I knew what I wanted for Christmas. Sadly, it was not to be.
Years later, a British comedy appeared on PBS. "Rumpole of the Bailey" followed the ups and downs of barister Horace Rumpole. His wife telephoned him often, and he invariably rolled his eyes while covering the mouthpiece, saying, "It's She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed!"
When I first started writing a column for an amateur radio newsletter, SWMBO figured prominently. Most readers knew my wife and realized she's not the authoritarian type depicted. Far from it, in fact. I'm a lucky man. She hasn't tried to kill me yet.

T-Mobile chief executive John Legere was romping around the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas last week, profanely berating bigger competitors AT&T T, -0.83% , Verizon VZ, -0.28% and Sprint S, +0.50% , crashing parties and getting boatloads of media attention while offering up bigger and better bait to get consumers to switch to T-Mobile.
His latest carrot: As much as $650 in credits to consumers who'll swap their wireless contract with AT&T, Verizon or Sprint for a no-contract pact with T-Mobile — what the T-Mobile CEO likes to call getting "Legered."
That comes less than a week after AT&T offered $450 to T-Mobile subscribers to switch.
Also see: Read this before you take $450 from AT&T
"These two are now at war," says Jeff Kagan, a veteran technology industry analyst. The offers come after the two companies tweaked their programs last summer to allow customers to upgrade their phones before the customary two-year contract period ended without paying the full price for the phone.
But what's all this fracas about, and should you consider these latest lures? The short answer is yes, if what you value most is price and mobility. If you care about broadband speed and reach, you may want to rethink that.
One reason you are likely to find a cheaper plan at T-Mobile is because it doesn't have the reach and depth of AT&T, Verizon or even Sprint. AT&T and Verizon account for a whopping 70% of the wireless market and are neck-and-neck in the No. 1 and No. 2 spots for subscribers, partly because they have the broadest and fastest coverage.
With smaller wireless providers, you could potentially find calls dropping or not even connecting in certain areas of the country. Of course, that happens with other carriers too — AT&T subscribers have long complained of calls being dropped in their homes and offices, even in the largest cities. (To see how coverage in your area compares among the carriers, don't just rely on the carriers' own maps. Check out coverage maps at crowdsourcing sites like rootmetrics.com or opensignal.com.)
Still, if you live in a major metropolitan area like Chicago, New York or Los Angeles, you're probably going to get decent coverage with any one of the top four carriers, with potential spottiness in nearby suburbs, lake areas and mountains.
If what matters to you isn't just domestic mobile coverage but things like roaming and international calls and having the ability to download large emails and even movies, then you'll want to carefully consider your choices. In that case, for instance, a $45 monthly AT&T value plan from Wal-Mart WMT, -0.16% with unlimited minutes and unlimited text but only 1GB of data won't work for you. (T-Mobile eliminated roaming fees abroad last year.)
But if you find yourself always complaining about the two-year contract hold that wireless carriers have on you, you will want to look at T-Mobile's as well as AT&T's offerings. Calling itself the "uncarrier" for the past year, T-Mobile has touted its leave-us-if-you-want-to approach to wireless that many consider a long-overdue change in the industry. Now it's helping get you off the hook of contract obligations with its competitors by covering your early termination fees.
"These are changes the industry has been wrestling with and talking about the last two years," Kagan says. "T-Mobile is not driving this change but raising the profile of the issue so that customers now understand it."
Here are the changes Kagan is referring to:
T-Mobile's switching plan — If you have a contract with AT&T, Verizon or Sprint, you can trade in your working phones or tablets at any participating Mobile stores, switch your number over and receive a credit based on the value of your device. Obviously, the newer and more advanced the device, the more credit you will receive, up to $300 that can be used toward a new device purchased at T-Mobile.
But first you must qualify. You have to switch from a post-paid plan — a pay-as-you-go plan — to a qualifying Simple Choice plan. You are not able to sign up for a T-Mobile prepaid plan or a Simple Choice Family Plan without a credit check.
Once you get your final bill from your previous carrier that includes the early termination fee, you send it to T-Mobile. Within eight weeks, you will receive a prepaid MasterCard equal to the termination fee, or up to $350 per line. T-Mobile will cover up to five lines per family — at the same billing address and in the same area code — including a combination or phones and tablets. For tablets only, the carrier will cover up to $350 per Internet line.
That makes for a maximum payout of $650 per device and line, which for a family of five could reach $3,250 — hardly a chunk of change worth turning your back on. Plus, that same family doesn't have to worry about staggered contract expiration dates.
AT&T's switching plan — Remember, this is only for T-Mobile subscribers. You first decide whether you want a new smartphone and which AT&T Mobile Share Value plan works best for you. Before checking out, transfer your eligible T-Mobile number to AT&T. In an AT&T store, this can take one to three hours. Online, it can take three to five business days.
When you transfer your number, you will receive a $200 Switcher's Bill Credit only if you pay your bills on time for 45 days after activation. The credit will appear on your third AT&T bill.
If you get a new AT&T smartphone, you can trade the old one in for what's called an AT&T promotion card that can be used only toward AT&T products or services, but not for bill credit. You're most likely going to use that to bring down the cost of your new phone, which won't be subsidized. (Verizon and Sprint customers can trade in smartphones for these promotion cards too.)
The fine print includes notes that say these deals are available only at select locations, and like T-Mobile's, that the trade-in values will vary based on the device. The limit is five but not all devices are eligible, though it doesn't name which ones, and an activation fee of $36 per line may apply.
For that same family of five, the maximum payout is $2,250, another nice chunk of change.
Final words of advice — If you decide to switch, don't tell your current carrier until after you have everything lined up with the new carrier, what carriers call "port in." Otherwise, you could lose your phone number.
Each website offers the details, but you will have to fish around for them.
You can find some basic dos and don'ts about overall plans and devices at the CTIA-The Wireless Association's website.

Time for Pacquiao to retire, says Hatton
Former world champion Ricky Hatton said on Tuesday that Manny Pacquiao should retire from boxing, after the 33-year-old Filipino was brutally knocked out in Las Vegas at the weekend.
The Briton, a former world light-welterweight and welterweight champion, was himself knocked out by Pacquiao in May 2009 in what was then only his second professional career loss. Hatton retired for a second time last month.
"The only advice I could give Manny Pacquiao is that his legacy is already secured," Hatton, 34, told AFP during a visit to Hong Kong, where he is hoping to unearth Chinese boxing talent in his role as a promoter.
"The thing is with us fighters is that there is always one more fight," said Hatton, who was knocked out in a failed return to the ring in November, in what he says was his last fight.
"What's he (Pacquiao) going to achieve by having one more fight? Probably nothing. He's an eight-weight world champion. There's nothing more to be said.
"You'd like to see him go into retirement and spend some time with his family and be happy. He can't do any more from a boxing point of view."
Pacquiao, who turns 34 next week, is under intense pressure to hang up his gloves after he was floored by his great Mexican rival Juan Manuel Marquez in Las Vegas on Saturday.
His wife Jinkee even made a tearful appeal on camera for her husband to quit the sport in the immediate aftermath of defeat. His mother Dionisia also made the same appeal after Pacquiao's second loss in a row.
Hatton, who was defeated by Vyacheslav Senchenko in his ring return, was adamant that he would not be making another comeback.
"I won't be fighting again," he said. "I got what I wanted from my comeback even though it ended in a defeat. I needed to find out if I still had it, and I haven't got it, and I can move on now."

Cristina Sacramento
Pembroke Pines Charter senior
Position: Pitcher
Statistics: 17-3, 1.25 ERA, 171 strikeouts, 1 save, .447 BA, 27 RBI, 4 HR
Season highlights: Sacramento, aSt. Thomas University signee, helped lead the Jaguars to their fifth state tournament appearance and their first state championship. She proved almost unhittable in the Class 6A state championship game, striking out 18 and allowing just one hit in Pembroke Pines Charter's 1-0 win over Niceville.
Comment: Sacramento, a four-year varsity starter and a second-team All-County selection a season ago, proved to be one of South Florida's most dominant pitchers with a knack for excelling in the biggest games. Along with her state championship performance, she helped lead Pines Charter to the Gold Bracket championship in the Kissimmee Klassic, one of the state's top high school softball tournaments. "Cristina took a young team, a team that had problems playing catch, and helped guide them and lead them to a state championship. She was totally amazing. She was so focused and on a mission and she led by example," said Pembroke Pines Charter coach Tom Fadul.
Athlete's quote: "We passed a lot of people's expectations. We lost districts and that pushed us even more through regionals and state. Being state champions is definitely the highlight. We've been waiting for this since softball started at our school. We didn't just make softball history, we made school history and everyone was proud of us, even other teams. I put everything I had into the state championship game. I knew it was all or nothing. We didn't want to be the runner-up again."

Members of the Alamance County Board of Commissioners seem to be spending an awful lot of time lately discussing something few had probably ever heard of before: The Human Relations Council. The sticking point is the idea of who might be qualified to be appointed to such a group.
Judging by the debate, which began in February, this is quite possibly the most complicated issue to come before the board in years, perhaps decades. It ranks right there with ad valorem taxes, actuarial tables and fund balances when it comes to brow-furrowing complexity. It�s more frustrating than legal advice, public records laws and geodetic surveys. The level of vexation rivals per-pupil spending, fire district taxes and people who talk too long during the public comments section of monthly meetings.
In fact, the whole thing appears so doggone difficult to decipher it�s surprising that two attorneys, an algebra teacher, an outside consultant and a representative from the N.C. Association of County Commissioners haven�t been enlisted to help befuddled board members navigate these choppy waters so fraught with potential public peril.
So I decided to look over the parameters for this board, which got its start in 1962. Its stated mission, best I can tell, is promoting �cultural diversity to better serve the needs of the citizens of Alamance County.� Members serve two-year terms, in which it is recommended that they show up and make conversation. The job includes discussion of human relations problems in Alamance County. Its members also identify and document areas for concern in terms of housing, employment and education and develop ways to improve lives and foster communication among all.
After mulling this for 1.6 seconds, I made a list of Alamance County residents who should be eligible to be on the Human Relations Council.
�Anybody, everybody and all bodies in between.�
Seems simple enough.
WHEN IT comes to critical county operations, this business about appointments to the Human Relations Council has to be pretty far down on the list. After all, it�s the kind of board that serves purely in an advisory capacity. It directly oversees no finances or policies. Its members merely meet and talk about things that should probably be discussed more often. Perhaps recommendations emerge from time to time about how life might be improved for folks who might need help or understanding.
And its appointed members may include just about anyone interested in serving. In fact, it might be argued that the board�s membership could � and most certainly should � comprise men and women ranging from twentysomething to ninetysomething. It should feature Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Independents, contrarians, vulgarians, vegetarians, conservatives, liberals, moderates, the politically active and the politically inert. Human Relations Council members could be married or single; gay, straight or indifferent; Christian or non-Christian; agnostic or atheist. There might be black members, Native American members, Hispanic members, Asian members, Jewish members and Muslim members. They might come from any walk of life, all occupations or myriad organizations.
And they�ll most likely be in some way advocates, organizers, activists, volunteers and those drawn in some ways to service or ideologies. Those are the people in any community who show up.
So with such wide-open territory, why is this debate among members of the Board of Commissioners still going on with so many more pressing issues to address?
It�s because what�s being said is eye-opening, instructive, troubling and in many ways depressing.
COMMISSIONERS BEGAN their foray into nominees for the Human Relations Council earlier this year. In February, they rejected the application of Scott Zienty, an advocate for the sizable Latino population in Alamance County. Their reasoning centered on Zienty�s short-term residency in the community � less than two years. Later, the commissioners did make an appointment and very good one, naming Steve Carter to the council. Carter, a businessman and head of the conservative Tea Party organization, is a worthy selection to join a board whose mission is to hear from all sectors of our community.
Monday, though, commissioners were once more confronted with a nomination for the Human Relations Council. This time it became obvious that the matter of worthy nominees has turned into a referendum about political ideologies vs. what might best serve all people in our community.
During talks about the nomination of Julie Budd, a Burlington resident, Commissioner David Smith dismissed anyone in the county whose views differ from his own, stating �My feeling on this board on any appointment is that it should mirror our political beliefs.�
Yeah, he really said that and in the process summarily dismissed thousands of Alamance County residents. By Smith�s reasoning, only older white men with law degrees and espousing conservative politics need apply.
Commissioner Tim Sutton, on the other hand, raised a red flag because of what he characterized as Budd�s political activism. She�s a proponent of peace � how awful that is � and shifting money from the U.S. Department of Defense budget to fund things like education or help for the poor. Of particular concern to Sutton is an alleged affiliation to Code Pink, a group that is anti-war. Budd, in previous Times-News stories has also been linked to Fairness Alamance, a pro-Hispanic rights group that frequently criticizes Sutton, the commissioners and sheriff�s office.
By the parameters of a Human Relations Council, though, none of those things should disqualify anyone from appointment. It�s a council where varying interests actually must be heard so no one in our community is left behind or forgotten. It�s what promoting cultural diversity is all about.
Of course, demonizing people for being members of organizations is nothing new in the world of politics. It�s right out of a 1950s political playbook authored by U.S. Sen. Joe McCarthy.
It seems almost impossible for the county to move forward with leaders who are so stuck in the past.

Like: "hey this thing that Erika did totally confirms my theory so it must be true, but this other part is bothersome, so let's just say it's a lie!"
That's basically what people are doing here.
Erika talks with Dlanor: Erika falsifies her pov
Erika acts all angry and forgets why she entered the guestroom in the first place: It's what it was shown there's no reason to doubt it.
Sorry but I don't think this is a valid approach.

I thought it was... kinda like what Beatrice did in the first 4 episodes. Erika is allowed to create an illusion of her own surrounding her actions (remember the thing in ep6 about her being able to get authority even without red truth).

Even so, let's go with it. She's falsifying her PoV in the bathroom.
Erika takes a long time in the bathroom because she hopes to let Battler leave the room by breaking the chain, so she can then blame all the murders on him. She has just killed five people. She needs a scapegoat, or else she'll be torn apart by everyone else. To this end, she gives him time to escape.

By the time you say that Erika's pov is not reliable you lose any right to show anything from Erika's pov and claim it proves your point.
And in the end those who claim that there is a realistic explanation for EP5-6 are claiming that Erika's behavior is fake a lot more than I do. So I find it extremely hypocritical to point that rare case where it's convenient for them to think Erika's behavior is truthful and claim that I need to accept it.
We are talking about realism here, this is not the usual battle of red and blue that totally disregard any common sense. The issue is to explain Erika's behavior in a way that make sense. And I fear your theory doesn't make any.
Logically speaking it was a lot better for Erika to find Battler and see him with her own eyes.
In addition if you theory was even slightly correct, Erika would have brought all the others with her. That way everyone would have seen with their own eyes that Battler was still alive and the others were dead. But the way it is... it's just Erika's word against Battler's. Please try to seriously use your logic for a moment.
In addition even disregarding these enormous plot holes, Erika would have rather sealed the door if that was really her objective. Certainly it was a lot more easier and secure to seal the door rather than fix the chainlock.

Yet I've provided a solution where the burns scenario is falsified, and the anger at being burnt still fits, so there's no reason to object to it.
I believe EP6 isn't broken, because it has Battler as the GM, and he cares about the board. In other words, there is love in the game. EP5 is a far bigger trainwreck. Faked deaths, red on the gameboard, red used in Natsuhi's thoughts, everyone obeying a guest unthinkingly, Battler helping the illusion, the man from 19 years ago, and even an 18th person. But I still have hope for the 5th game, because of the knock. That knock implies that there is still a mystery unsolved in EP5, and that the rest of it can be explained away.

I don't beleive Erika's character is "mentally unstable" either. She's just very prideful, meticulous, and self righteous.

I actually believe that battler's POV was reliable in EP1-4 and I refuse to believe that practically everything we see about Erika is just a lie.
But about Erika going in the bathroom if you accept that she acts under a metaworld superior knowledge she simply did that because she wanted Battler to fall in the logic error. And therefore that scene where you see Erika being all worried about the shower really happened in the gameboard but Erika was just pretending. Of course the one she wanted to fool was MetaBattler.
It's all easy to explain if you just accept there isn't a realistic explanation for Erika's behavior.
But there are guys who think it can be explained realistically, and I think okay explain it "realistically", but all I get are theories that barely try to be actually realistic.
It is you that want to put it in a way that doesn't make sense. Just accept that this gameboard is fictional world and Erika doesn't care about the rules and does metagaming all the time and it all makes perfect sense.
But because you and some other people do not want to accept this, you come up with wacky theories that only create tons of plot holes.
If you don't like the author theory because you prefer to think that the gameboard is a real thing, then show me a theory that really is realistic.
It just makes no sense to refuse "X" because it isn't real enough only to go to "Y" which is even less realistic.
That's basically my point. Every attempt to find a way to explain how the gameboard can be a realistic world unaffected by the metaworld has only the effect of making it even more unrealistic.

Oh, and she kills and decapitates five people for discernible reason.
Thus I conclude that Piece-Erika is mentally unstable.

First of all,you must be aware that Erika is the detective in those games.
Just because her existence is false,does not mean what she says is false.
What if she see's Dlanor?Then that's fake.It's just that simple.
How can we chose whether something Erika did or said is real or false?
Obviously,just from it being read,it will be completely unreasonable.
If Erika were to say
''Where I used to live,there was a girl who called me a bitch,and I punched her in the face and slammed her head on the floor and made her regret her words'',I would have no reason at all to deny this,because it fits with her character,and there is no evidence at all denying it.
HOWEVER,if Erika told everyone
''When I drifted on this island,I saw a person and yelled at it to help me,because I was in pain and lonely'',I would seriously doubt this,simply because
1.She was found unconscious due to drowning
2.Because she was in pain and in lonely?Well that's completely out of character.
I'd beleive it more if she said she was frustrated after suffocating,and needed some assistance.
You cannot just assume everything Erika says and does is just a lie,because then there would be no reason for her to be there.And by that,I don't mean from a meta world perspective,I mean from the Author himself.If I made a story,I would not at all make the main character of that chapter be one who falsifies all actions and words.
It has no logic.
That's like saying everything Suit!Beato says and does is a lie and should not be taken in account,because she can summon goats & stakes.That's like saying everything Evatrice says is a lie because she summons siestas.

Also,I'm sure you can make realistic sense out of EP6.
To explain why she didn't just get everyone and say ''I found Battler,he's the culprit,boom'',I think I can explain that easily.
1.Why would they trust the uninvited guest?
2.She has no evidence?
3.Family is obviously on Battlers side.
If she knew he was in there to frame him,why would she put any seals?It wouldn't work well for her,or Battler,simply because
1.If she set them,and then got the family to go,the seals will still be set,and Eva and Kyrie would obviously ask
Kyrie:''If he killed everyone,then why aren't the seals broken?''
Eva:''And you were gone for so long,how would we know if the culprit wasn't miss detective herself?''
2.If she set them,opened them and then came to Battler,she would have to explain why Battler would still be in the room,if the seals were broken.It would be a huge fail on her part.
Long Story short,you can trust when there is no reason to doubt,and Erika did not reveal Battler out in the open because it wouldn't make sense on her part,due to her seals,since she's the one who put them,and broke them.So it would only make sense to let Battler escape so that she could pin it on him when they found him,and use the closed room chain trick,to further provide evidence,and find him in another room hiding.The family would have no reason to doubt Erika,but even though...I don't really believe the family would believe her so easily..but then ''Erika'' would probably say
Erika:''Obviously,the only one who could have killed them was one of the ones who knew it was a prank itself!You guys were sealed,and the only one left alive of the fakes is Battler,the culprit.''

Believing that Erika climbed around on the outside of the building and put duct tape everywhere makes significantly less sense than all of that being part of the meta-game. The reason those things are accepted as true in the meta-game is that something similar, but not quite happened in the real world, just like all of the other magic scenes we have seen so far.
Add on the fact that Battler has no reason to stay in the room he played dead in and you have a pretty good argument that he may have actually been trapped in the room.
If you attribute Erika's actions to another person or group of people, you can make plenty of sense out of them. Given, you have to separate out the parts that are specific to the meta-game and the parts that are in the real world.

We cannot argue that Erika is acting without meta-world knowledge because inevitably you'll just say "But she has meta-world knowledge because she talked to Dlanor.", or "But she can't have taken this action without meta-world knowledge because she knows the seals are unbroken even if she's nowhere near them."
Things make sense as long as you accept that Erika in all situations either A: DOES NOT EXIST, or B:Is simply a metaphor or representation of the actions of another character.
The only reason that inconsistencies appear here is because you are attributing Erika's personality, conversations and motivations to the character(s) she represents. It has already been stated that on all gameboards the same number of people exist and on all gameboards that is 17 people, Erika is the 18th person therefore she does not exist.
All meta is a metaphor for something else. This includes Erika.

Fox supervisors approve bids, use of facilities
Among the many items approved by the Fox Township Supervisors during their most recent meeting were paving bids and the use of facilities.The supervisors approved a request to use the community park for the Fox Township Farmer's Market taking place from 4-6 p.m. on Thursdays from June through October, weather permitting.Debby Agosti, recreational facilities director, noted there have been changes for vendors. The change requires that vendors who sell baked goods must have produced them in a state-certified kitchen. Supervisor Dave Mattiuz proposed a motion citing one of the rule's in the Farmers Market guidelines, which should state that Fox Township and not just Fox Township Park is not responsible for specific incidents, such as theft, etc., occurring at the event. The supervisors approved amending the change in the rules.The supervisors reviewed bids for paving and seal coating. The winning paving bid, which will be done on Hayes Road, was awarded to G.O. Hawbaker for $159,925. Additional paving bids were received from HRI, Inc. for $179,900; from New Enterprise Stone and Lime for $182,000; and from Jefferson Paving for $221,000. The bituminous seal coat bid, which includes a double application, was awarded to Hager Paving for $45,900. Additional bids were submitted by Jefferson Paving for $46,300, New Enterprise Stone and Lime for $54,300 and from G.O. Hawbaker for $60,100.Supervisor and roadmaster Randy Gradizzi said HRI Inc. was the only company who submitted a bid for the fiber-reinforced seal coating at a cost of $70,000. This new process incorporates fiberglass inlaid between seal coats and is made to last longer. Under new business, the board approved a notice stating the rates under the current hospitalization plan for the township will increase to 4.4 percent for the new contract year running July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012.Don Ruffner of the Fox Township Recreation Board informed the supervisors that the board is compiling a list of projects in which they may need assistance from the township's road crew.

The Kilgore College Ranger football team will be heading to a bowl game in December, and the information about the game will be released at a press conference on Tuesday, Nov. 13.
The event is set for 1 p.m. in KC's Devall Room in the Devall Student Center on the Kilgore Campus.
Athletic Director Jimmy Rieves has been in contact with several representatives from NJCAA bowls, and is excited for the 8-2 Rangers to get invited to post-playoff play.
"We'll definitely have a bowl game set by Tuesday," Rieves said. "It was a great season for head coach J.J. Eckert and the Rangers. It is an honor that they will get to play in a bowl as a reward for their hard work and outstanding efforts on and off the field."
KC has played in 18 bowl games in school history.
This will be the first bowl invitation since 2007 when the Rangers played Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College in the Heart of Texas Bowl in Copperas Cove.
KC is 10-7-1 in bowl games, and this will be the fifth time since 2001 that the Rangers will play in a bowl game.

The title of Williamston Theatre's latest production, "The Usual," is entirely misleading. It is anything but usual. In fact, it is unusual to the extent that it may polarize audiences. It is also one of the most offbeat shows of the season.
The full title of the play is "The Usual: A Musical Love Story." Williamston's run of the show is the world premiere of the original work, with book and lyrics by Alan Gordon and music by Mark Sutton-Smith. If that last name sounds familiar, it is because he is the brother of "The Usual" cast member and Williamston Theatre Development Director Emily Sutton-Smith.
"The Usual" follows the usual conventions of a love story: Boy and girl meet cute but face internal and external obstacles before achieving their happily-ever-after ending. The dark turn that the story takes at the end of Act One marks its journey into the unusual.
The play begins as computer nerd Kip (Joseph Zettelmaier) reconnoiters Sam's Bar as a possible hangout for his geek squad. As proprieter Sam (Leslie Hull) schools Kip on the customs of imbibing, Valerie (Sutton-Smith) crashes in, hiding from a bad Internet date. Learning that she is a serial Internet dater, Kip forges a pact with Valerie to meet at Sam's after every date to debrief.
At first this plan works out nicely, and the two exchange tales of past relationship disasters. These stories offer Hull the opportunity to stretch from her barmaid duties, playing a manic reality television show hopeful and an Internet fantasy girl. The latter also affords scenic designer Daniel C. Walker the opportunity to surprise the audience with an unexpected scenic element.
Act One ends on an unexpectedly serious note as Valerie experiences the ugly side of Internet dating, causing her to retreat from the world. This is when things get really, really unusual.
Act Two focuses on Valerie's rather unique form of therapy, as she rediscovers her first video game. It´s at this point that some audience members may lose their connection to the play, as it incorporates the use of 1980s-style role-playing games as a metaphor for Valerie's struggle. Unlike today's role-playing games, with their fancy-pants, life-like color graphics and slick animation, back in the day RPGs were played using simple text directions and blobby, chunky characters that came in green or amber, depending on the color of the computer's glowing cathode-ray tube screen.
Costume designer Holly Iler does a fantastic job recreating the look of such characters, aided by Lynn Lammer's pixelated props. As Valerie commands her character, typing furiously on her "Kebpro II" computer (to which an entire song is devoted), her Valkyrie avatar does furious battle, the hilariously low-tech special effects brought to life by the Dancing Crew: Brandon Piper and Carolyne Rex.
Director Tony Caselli chose his cast well. Zettelmaier is absolutely perfect as the schlubby but huggable Kip, and while his voice isn't the most refined, it suits his character. Sutton-Smith moves seamlessly from confident cruiser to computer-obsessed shut-in, her voice strongest when she lets it all out. Hull has a blast with her side characters, lending an earnest charm as the matchmaking bartender. And she has pipes powerful enough to drown out a Harley.
While the end may tie up just a wee bit too neatly, it is not a spoiler to reveal that. After all, it is called a musical love story. Still, the unusual aspects of the "The Usual" set it apart from similar stories. It may not be everyone's game, but those of a certain age will revel in its quirkiness.

SAP Unveils Online Dashboard to Provide Fans With Analytic Insights for NFL.com Fantasy Football Player of the Year
Winner to Be Announced During "2nd Annual NFL Honors" Awards Ceremony Saturday, February 2
Jan 24, 2013, 09:00 ET
NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP AG (NYSE: SAP), working with the National Football League (NFL), today announced the launch of an online analytics dashboard to provide fans with insights regarding the selection of the NFL.com Fantasy Player of the Year for the 2012 season. The dashboard, now live on NFL.com/Honors, is exhibiting the statistics of the top eight finalists in a visually rich format. Based on SAP-generated analytics combined with NFL.com fantasy football data, the NFL.com Fantasy Player of the Year Award recognizes the football player that has outshined all other players in the league in fantasy football.

The NFL.com Fantasy Player of the Year presented by SAP will be announced the night before Super Bowl XLVII at the "2nd Annual NFL Honors" - a two-hour primetime awards special to air nationally on Saturday, February 2, 9:00 - 11:00 p.m. EST on CBS. Further details about the NFL.com Fantasy Player of the Year presented by SAP , including information on the eight finalists, are available at NFL.com/Honors.
The user-friendly dashboard serves as a central hub for statistical comparison of the eight finalists' performances over the 16-week fantasy season, including overall season points, points per game and average player figures in comparison to others who play the same position. The database also provides a week-by-week point graph, a quick analysis of each player's performance and other engaging football-related analytics to provide tremendous value to fans.
"Fantasy football fans love stats almost as much as watching the action on the field," said Jonathan Becher, CMO. "The SAP dashboard enhances the NFL.com Fantasy experience by distilling millions of data points and allowing fans size up their favorite players more easily. Soon fans will be able to use the analytical power of SAP to predict the most valuable players for their fantasy teams."
In October 2012, the NFL and SAP announced a multi-year marketing sponsorship that made SAP the Official Cloud Software Solutions, Business Software and Business Analytics Software Sponsor of the league. The NFL will utilize cloud solutions from SAP to support the continued innovation and enhancement of NFL.com's fantasy football platform. Through the implementation of on-demand SAP solutions, SAP and the NFL will deepen the NFL.com fantasy football experience, providing fans with enhanced analytics and functionality within the game.
