The Fantastinomicon
Madam Illendra
llendra is a woman of poise and grace. She is tall and lithe, and though often garbed in mere leather garments (a memento of her days as a ranger), her royal heritage is evinced by the way she carries her self. Illendra Has long sultry strawberry blond hair which she tends to wear partially up in a bun. She has fair skin and a handsome face with proud, regal features. Her eyes are emerald, and can stop a man dead in his tracks with but a glance. Illendra was born to Eberthul Etheborne. The one time noble made the momentous mistake of falling for the viscount of Hidroth Lea as a young woman. The love affair turned out to be an affront to the crown, which brought shame and ruin upon the Etheborne house. After being ridiculed by the town and shunned by her family, Illendra left town and took up the path of the Ranger, wandering the downs of Edigroth for nearly a decade.
Little is known about the years of Illendra's sojourn. When she finally returned to Hidroth Lea years later (much to the astonishment of all), she inherited the Inn that her father had bought a decade back with what remained of the family fortune. Illendra renamed the Inn "The Falcon's Nest" after her animal companion. She used the notoriety of her reputation to her advantage, attracting a variety of clientele to the Inn, and rewarding their curiosity with carnal pleasures. The Falcon's Nest soon became a thriving business, allowing her to hire on nearly a dozen other girls. In time, Illendra became a wealthy business owner and a leading member of the arriviste within town. She takes delight in the irony of her accomplishment: whereas as a young woman she lost everything due to false allegations of harlotry, by actually becoming a harlot in later life she has managed to gain a great deal back. While Illendra still bears the bitter scars of her past, she is unwilling to allow herself to be beaten. Rather, by embracing her tarnished reputation Illendra has risen to great heights, thus conquering the demons of her past.
he Falcons Nest is a decently priced Inn located at the north end of town between the Upper Commons and the Upper Lords. It is owned by the Lady Illendra, a woman of some notoriety within Hidroth Lea. She is intelligent, slender, decidedly attractive, and is quite fond of birds. In fact, Illendra keeps her own falcon; hence the name of the business. The place is modest but cozy enough, even if the food is terrible. There are limited beers on tap, though Silver Wheat is always offered. While the Nest is a legitimate Inn, it is also widely known throughout Hidreth Lea that it is the place to go if one is seeking companionship for the night. Illendra has several other women in her employ. Among the most popular of the "bar maids" are two young blond sisters named Eliena and Ebelora, a dark tan skinned brunette from the south named Celerin, and a stout and buxom red-headed dwarf named Hara.
Proprietress: The Lady Illendra.
Clientele: A variety of classes ranging from poppers to Princes patron the Nest.
Lodging: Moderate. The Nest has ten rooms in all, eight of which consist of no more than a nightstand and a comforter covered in Kalistinian Cotton linens, and blankets of Caldoranthian wool. The remaining two rooms are suites reserved for high profile patrons. These rooms contain luxurious Kings sized beds covered in satin from Van'Alis and down filled silken comforters. Each also contains its own fireplace, and a vanity crafted by the Gnomes of Glindell which contain large mirrors.
Food: Poor (the employees were not selected for their culinary skills). The menu consists of:
- Breakfast: Two Eggs, buttered toast, and groats.
- Lunch: Bread, cheese, and cold mutton.
- Dinner: Mutton stew, Bread.
- Snack: Cold mutton.
Pricing: Varies:
- Meal Only: 2sp.

Dr. Shawky Allam , the current grand Mufti of Egypt is saying that boycotting the referendum is hateful in Islam !! Last time I checked as a Muslim there is nothing against or with the boycotting of any political election as it is not a bloody testimony in some court !!
Moving to the Salafists , to Nour party that masters the game of religion in politics.
Of course they are saying that the draft constitution protects Sharia and so on.
|Salafist flyers for constitution 2014
I know that Sheikh Allam "who was appointed during Morsi" is trying to counter the MB's calls
The church also jumped to the wagon and unfortunately we found the Pope himself , Pope Tawadros II himself is telling the people to vote yes in order to be blessed by God !!
The man does not want to stop after the video , we find an op-ed in Ahram newspaper "Saying yes increases blesses" !!
Ironically the Pope said last April 2013 that religion should not be involved in politics because politics are dirty !! I do not know why there is a change now !!
Of course I can not ignore how the Muslim Brotherhood are using religion in a counter way telling the people not to vote because it is a sin to do so !!
Voting in the constitution has nothing to do with God for God's sake , leave God out of your stupid cheap earthly conflicts !!
No big difference between the Muslim Brotherhood and current regime actually.
There will be no more blessing nor Egypt will be a paradise after adopting that constitution , stop fooling the people.

We're in a crazy period. Home values have been rising and "flipping" is starting up again in places like Miami and Las Vegas, today the stock market is going through the roof, setting a new record. The jobs report tells us that jobs are being created at a very slow pace and that new unemployment claims are down.
At the same time, the new jobs don't pay as well as the jobs they are replacing and the income gap is wider than ever.
Is it time for a revolution?

Yes, it is still a sport because it is a rifle. You completely miss the point. And adding in "rocket launchers" as a hunting tool is a strawman argument and has nothing at all to do with what we are talking about. Once again, the only difference between what you call "assault weapons" and a hunting rifle is aesthetics. I just don't understand why you are having such a hard time getting your mind wrapped around that concept.
Yes, total disarmament was my extension and never said you were trying to advocate that, but it IS (as I said) the LOGICAL extension since most crimes are committed by handguns and you are advocating gun control specifically for crime control (which is proven NOT to work, by the way).
By far the gun related deaths are suicide - so what? Just saying car related deaths are accidental doesn't mean those deaths didn't happen. You are trying to subvert the subject. You mention "murder rate" like somehow those deaths are more tragic than accidental deaths. Maybe to you they are. But that doesn't change the numbers. It also doesn't change that you are once again talking about a TOOL. I agree with you - cars shouldn't be ban. But neither should any other tool.
There IS a reason we shouldn't do both. Do you not care about the constitution? Do you not care that banning weapons CAUSES more victims? There is a very good and distinct reason NOT to impart gun control. Dude, LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE! GUN CONTROL CREATES MORE VICTIMS AND MORE CRIME!!!!!
Wow, an all-caps finish, indicating approaching hysteria - that is so unlike you, Keith.
RE: "Yes, it is still a sport because it is a rifle." - is that what makes it a sport? I always thought that when one hunted, sport involved giving your prey a "sporting" chance to kill you or escape, not gunning down an animal in cold blood - I'd guess, with enough funds, one could create a home zoo for that, just shoot them in their cages, and say, "Look what I bagged!"
As for the, "difference between what you call 'assault weapons' and a hunting rifle," - how many rounds per second can we expect from an "assault rifle," versus a .30-06 lever action? And with which, would a deer, or a liquor store clerk, have the most sporting chance?
RE: "By far the gun related deaths are suicide - so what?" - who said that? I didn't. Are you arguing with me regarding things another member said?! I can't hope (nor intend) to defend the statements of others.
RE: "Just saying car related deaths are accidental doesn't mean those deaths didn't happen. You are trying to subvert the subject." - no, I'm trying to derail YOUR subversion of the subject by introducing accidental car deaths. Check the definitions of "accident," vs "pre-meditated," then get back with me.
It was all caps to try to get your attention. I've been trying to say this over and over and yet you don't seem to get it. I can't quite understand what part of more gun control = more crime you aren't getting.
Yes, it's a sport. Using an "assault weapon" only makes it easier to hold. It appears you don't understand what we're talking about here. You do realize that we are NOT talking about fully automatic weapons, right? You say you are a hunter, but you don't seem to understand the first thing about wildlife. You say you were in the Army, but you don't seem to understand the first thing about even semi-automatic weapons. Even of you fired a full 30 rnd mag as fast as you could at a deer, your first 2 rounds are the only ones that have a chance of hitting. After that, your aim is so far off there is no chance of hitting anything but trees.
And why are you fixating on hunting? What difference does it make? So you "disapprove" of people hunting with a magazine of more than 7 rounds (the law, as least in the western states only allows 3 rounds to be loaded into a weapon, by the way, and not even one in the chamber). Are you now advocating that all semi-automatic weapons should be ban and only lever actions allowed to the citizenry? If not, why bring it up? I don't understand how we got on this topic at all. As I said, this conversation has nothing to do with hunting or even personal protection.
Bring up auto-related car deaths and injuries is not subversion or derailment. We are talking about preventing deaths, right? isn't your argument for gun control specifically centered on doing so because of the "dangers" of firearms? All I'm trying to do is point out that it's irrational to fixate on a single symptom simply because you, personally, don't see the "value" in it. That's why you want to avoid the analogy. We all see value in owning cars and we wouldn't give them up for the world, but some people have an irrational fear of firearms, so they are willing to allow other people to have their civil rights to be mangled because it doesn't effect them.
RE: "And why are you fixating on hunting?" - because you said we needed those weapons for self-preservation and hunting, did you forget?
RE: "Bring up auto-related car deaths and injuries is not subversion or derailment." - in a sense, you're right, it's a total obfuscation, smoke and mirrors, trying to tie something indispensable with something we can all do without - automatic weapons and StreetSweepers - is nothing more than that. The vast majority of auto-related deaths are accidental, while the majority of gun-related deaths are deliberate. Electricity can kill, as can a dozen or more conveniences I could name off the top of my head, and I must assume, in order to cloud the issue, you would suggest banning those as well. Your effort to tie guns that no one needs with transportation we can't do without, is a really weak argument, surely you can see that..
Please re-read my posts. I have NEVER said that we "need" those weapons for hunting. What I said was Hunting and self-protection has nothing to do with this debate. The right to bear arms is ONLY about the citizenry protecting itself against threats, both foreign and domestic. I have repeatedly said that hunting is a complete sidetrack that is completely immaterial.
Actually, just the opposite. You are actually making my point for me. I am NOT advocating banning those things that you can think of off the top of your head. What I am saying is that firearms falls into that same category. I don't understand why you claim the argument against cars is an obfuscation. You keep claiming that they have nothing to do with each other, but your whole point behind guns is their death rate. You insist that it is the gun that facilitates these murders, as if eliminating firearms would eliminate all these crimes. That is why I keep trying to get you to understand that a gun is a tool and do not actually commit these crimes themselves, nor would not having a gun stop the criminal. Why do you insist on ignoring the evidence?
Here's what you said, exactly: "If people want to stress out because I own a gun for hunting / self-protection, that's their problem." If hunting is such a "sidetrack," it makes me wonder why you brought it up, I didn't.
RE: "I don't understand why you claim the argument against cars is an obfuscation." - As I've already said, you are trying to compare apples with oranges.
I'm not "comparing" anything. My point is that we shouldn't be blaming cars for auto accidents just like we shouldn't be blaming the aesthetics of a firearm for gun violence. It's really no more complicated than that.
RE: "It's really no more complicated than that." - you mean other than the former dealing with accidental behavior and the latter, with deliberate and malicious behavior, then I suppose not.
@archaeopteryx - "Here's what you said, exactly: "If people want to stress out because I own a gun for hunting / self-protection, that's their problem." If hunting is such a "sidetrack," it makes me wonder why you brought it up, I didn't."
So your strategy is to ignore everything I say that you can't somehow try to use against me. Hmmm. Okay, I didn't realize that your goal was to "win" rather than have a rational debate with an open mind. In that case, I concede and allow you to "win". Congratulations.
I have no obsessive need to "win" Keith, just trying to keep you on point, rather than going off on irrelevant tangents, like banning cars, or electricity, or bathtubs one could drown in, or planes that could crash or - I could go on, but why bother?

'Savages' has so much star potential and a solid story that it could easily have been one of the best movies of the summer; unfortunately it fails to reach its full potential as it gets lost in all the twists and it doesn't take itself seriously. Controversial film director Oliver Stone uses a not so original setting in the world of drug dealing and turns it into an almost dark comical action thriller, where cold-blooded dealers are gossiping coworkers that easily fool one another. I've said this before and I will say it again, a movie that has so many characters and that tries to fulfill too many genres most likely will fall short to what it tries to accomplish.
Best friends Chon (Taylor Kitsch) and Ben (Aaron Johnson) lead a successful marijuana producing business in California, they each bring something different to the table, which is what makes their partnership unbreakable. They also have a love triangle with their girlfriend O (Blake Lively) who keeps them balanced and creates this unusual family they all need. Their picture perfect life gets disrupted when the powerful and violent Mexican Baja Cartel wants part of their business' action. The Cartel's fierce leader Elena (Salma Hayek) runs her operations from her living room, commanding her right hand Lado (Benicio Del Toro) and her lawyer Alex (Demián Bichir). Not sure what to do, Chon and Ben consult a dirty DEA agent, Dennis (John Travolta) who's helped them run their business without getting caught. A savage war breaks out when both teams try to outsmart one another.
Del Toro is just the perfect person to play a bad guy and the audience easily begins to hate him by his actions and behavior. Although Bichir's part is miniscule, it's very important and he plays it well despite of the film almost mocking his character, he's still able to come out unharmed. The problem with Hayek wasn't her performance, as it was great to see her play such a strong, powerful character; the problem was the script as it decides to show her as someone gullible and that's hard to believe having seen what kind of person she is.
Kitsch has had a tough year with 'John Carter' and 'Battleship', he has a lot of talent and it shows here but at times the script does fail him, but he's able to overcome it. Johnson gives the film a good balance, as he's one of the few pacifistic characters and it is quite refreshing. Lively is the weakest link here, as she's doesn't have a lot of say and gets used over and over again. Although the narration by Lively helps the film, as she's able to give background information, at the end the narration starts treating the audience like idiots and it takes away from the film.
Stone made some great casting choices as he combined veteran stars such as Travolta, perhaps Stone's political angle in the film, with the three main young actors, which quickly have come to be known in Hollywood. Stone shows his capability as a filmmaker mixing in shots of black and white as well as beautiful sceneries and bloody scenes.
The film is based on Don Winslow's novel and this might be the reason why it becomes over dramatic, ironic and comical at times; those were the biggest flaws of the film. The actors gave it their all despite of the script failing them at times. Unfortunately when it begins to have funny scenes and ridicule the characters who have earned the audience's respect it undoes what it's done. The film tries to overcompensate with violence but it doesn't succeed. I expected so much more from this movie but it drowned in a pool of mediocrity as much as it struggled to keep afloat.

Dirk Werner took his E-Postbrief BMW M3 DTM to fourth place – a personal best for the driver. While Augusto Farfus took fifth place in his Castrol EDGE BMW M3 DTM, giving BMW their first three car finish in the top five.

With two races left in the season, Valencia and Hokenheimring, this years DTM champion could be crowned during the season's final race. Making this a thrilling and competitive year for DTM.

Dilation of sinuses, any method (e.g., balloon, etc.)
Sinus ostial dilation (e.g. balloon ostial dilation) is an appropriate therapeutic option for selected patients with sinusitis. This approach may be used alone to dilate a sinus ostium (frontal, maxillary, or sphenoid) or in conjunction with other instruments (eg, microdebrider, forceps). The final decision regarding use of techniques or instrumentation for sinus surgery is the responsibility of the attending surgeon.

Earth : Europe : France : Great West : Brittany : Ille-et-Vilaine : Rennes
Rennes is the capital city of Brittany, France.
Rennes is not often mentioned on tourist guides but this medium size town is well worth a visit. It has more than 200,000 inhabitants, of which about 60,000 are students. This gives the town a vibrant nightlife. Some streets, such as the Rue Saint Michel, have only bars on both sides. (The locals actually call "Rue Saint Michel" "la rue de la soif", which means "Street of Thirst"). A stroll down Rue Saint Michel on a Friday or Saturday evening is a very interesting experience indeed. However, if you're really in the mood to "faire la fête", celebrate or just have fun in other words, the most exciting night on "Rue de la Soif" would be the "Jeudi Soir", Thursday nights, during the school year. Jeudi Soir is the night when bars are most often packed to the brim with students. The sights on Thursday nights out on the town are very memorable and interesting.
Rennes is particularly nice in early July, during the "Festival des Tombées de la Nuit". Its streets are then full of people enjoying the free street entertainment and eating or drinking at the terraces of the restaurants and cafés.
Rennes used to be virtually empty after the 15th of July, as most of its inhabitants were migrating to the coast until the 15th August. In recent years, this trend seems to have stopped and Rennes's terraces and cafes are now bustling throughout the year.
Get in
By plane
Rennes airport [5] has budget flights to and from Southampton, Belfast, Birmingham and Exeter thanks to Flybe [6], or Dublin and Cork with Aerlingus [7]which has good offers. The airport is less than 5km away from the city center, and bus No 57 links it with the city.
Dinard/Pleurtuit/Saint-Malo Airport. One hour away, Dinard's airport offers other cheap options, with for example a connection to London with Ryanair [8].
By train
Gare de Rennes The easiest way to get to Rennes from Paris is through Gare Montparnasse. There are TGVs almost every 30 minutes and the ride is 2hrs and 3 min. Tickets are available on the SNCF website, and between 25 and 65 Euros for one way. If you're under 26 years old, and planning to travel in France by train, get the "carte 12-25" (49 €) which will offers you 50% off most of the time.
The Rennes Train Station also provides train service to Nantes, Brest, Quimper, St. Brieuc, and other cites in Brittany.
The cheapest way will be covoiturage or car-sharing. A lot of websites offer information about people wishing to share their car and budget. 123envoiture.com or Allostop will help you out. Since 1968, traveling by car on motorways within Brittany is free.
By bus
Rennes has also an international and local bus station, right next to the rail station. This is where you can get information about Illenoo (see below) and where buses such as Eurolines/
Get around
By bus and metro
Rennes has a very good public transport system, called Star([9]). If you're planning to buy a pass (weekly or longer), you'll need to go to one of the two agencies Place de la Republique and Place de la Mairie) to get a "Korrigo" card. Remember to bring a picture for employees to scan. It is a free electronic card on which your pass will be saved. Once you have it, just reload it anywhere tickets are sold. Daily tickets can be bought for €3 a day, and are valid on both the bus and metro. Star claims that its network has the cheapest prices in France, with a single ticket (valid for 30 min after validation for unlimited connections) costing €1.20.
Rennes offers more than 50 different bus routes and a metro, with 1 bus every 5 min for the metro and main bus lines at the peak hours. The hub of the network is at Republique, which feeds most of the 50 different routes. This bus and metro network connects all parts of Rennes, and so you're never far from a bus stop. All the bus stops conveniently have a map (une carte) of Rennes with all the lines on, and a timetable for the routes it provides, so there isn't much chance of getting lost.
The metro, called the VAL, has only one line with 15 stops and is 8.57 km long. It runs from one edge to the other in 16 min. It connects the main train station to the centre, Villejean university, the hospital, the town hall and more. It runs from 5:25 to 0:30, like the five main bus lines.
By bike
Rennes offers very good options for cyclists. With plenty of cycle lanes, the town has plenty of cyclists. For residents of the town and tourists, bikes known as the LE vélo STAR [10], can be borrowed from 81 stations all over the town. These bikes are not particularly good, but they work and have three gears, so its worth checking them out. You can buy a 1-day or 7-day-registration on the website or at ten stations in the centre (pay with your credit card) for €1 or €5, respectively. Once registered, you can get a bike as often as you want from any station by typing your personal account number and PIN. The first 30 minutes of every rental are free, so the trick is to return your bicycle just before 30 min at the next station and immediately borrow another one.
If you are after a pleasant cycling trip, check out the canal route, which is flat and not very hazardous.
By car
Traffic in city center is heavy. Large areas are reserved for pedestrians and buses. Parking in the center is not free. You'll have to find an horodateur, never far away. Price will depend on the zone where you parked. 0,75 €/h and 2h40 maximum for green zone and 1,33 €/h with 1h33 maximum for red ones. Since 2002, the best way to discover Rennes is by metro and its parcs-relais. These are car-parks located in metro stations on the outskirts such as Kennedy, Villejean in the north and Henri Freville, Triangle and La Poterie in the south. They're free if you use the metro.
By bus (illenoo)
Illenoo[11] is a public service of the Conseil général d'Ille & Vilaine (Département level). It allows people to travel within the département (and a little bit outside) on 18 lines for a good price. For example, Rennes - St Malo €4.80 return for students under 26. You can also go to Mont St Michel from Rennes, with regional bus line [12]. It is an express line, it takes 1h20 to go. Bus stop is in Bus station in Rennes (next to train station), and the stop in Mont St Michel is a the foot of Mont St Michel.
Around Rennes
If you're going there from Rennes, the easiest and more expensive way is to use keolis emeraude[13] bus company. They'll charge you €11.40 each way, €8,60 for 16 to 25 year olds. But a cheaper option is to use the Illenoo public transport (see Get In), which costs €3 each way, but stops in Pontorson (9 km south of Mt St Michel). From there, you can even hitch hike or use the Maneo bus link, which costs €2. Just make sure that the schedules line up so you're not stuck in Pontorson for 2+ hours...cute town but not much to do.
Anyhow, you get a 20% rebate in both cases if you're under 26 years old.
Les Champs Libres is a brand new building in which you'll find le musee de Bretagne, l'espace des Sciences and the bibliotheque municipale. It's a wonderful place where you can learn a lot about Rennes, about Brittany, and about sciences and history. There are a lot of exhibitions (temporary and permanent), forums, and debates. There's also an outside cafe overhanging Place Charles de Gaulle where you can meet people and talk about whatever you feel like. If you feel like reading newspapers, head to the room in front of you when you enter that building, choose your favourite one and sit with other peers. But if you want to have a nice look at the city centre, head to last floor of the public library and enjoy. Don't forget to be quiet or they'll remind you! If you don't feel like going to the movies, you can climb up to the planetarium (around 7€ for exposition and planetarium) and enjoy 1h30 of live "show" about space, stars, legends,... Check the schedule on their website for your favourite theme.
Fest-noz is not a Breton, not French word meaning festivbal of the night. It is a traditional ball where all generations meet and listen traditional music, drink beer or chouchen, and dance on breton music. Most of them happen on Saturdays, but you can find some on Thursdays or fridays. You can find them by looking at the posters in the streets and in the universities but there is a website that gather most of fest-noz in Brittany.[17] It usually costs 5-8 euros, but bigger events as Yaouank (a huge fest-noz in Rennes, usually in October or November) are little bit more expensive.
As students represent a quarter of Rennes' population, you will probably find people walking (or staggering) in the city centre. This is especially true on Thursdays which is traditionally students day, as many of them go back home on Friday for the week end. But for a few years, city centre residents have been complaining about heavy drinking and disturbances of the peace at night; so Bernadette Malgorn (former prefete of Ille et Vilaine) enforced the law and decided to close bars earlier. The result was that it drained all the people out at the same time, and created problems with the police for a few months. This is where associations, organizations and city hall intervened. The idea of opening concert halls and public places to occupy these young people by making play and games available gradually caught on. The concept, running during school time, is to propose four different free activities every Thursday during school time.[18]

Keep in mind that you won't be able to stay in most bars after 1am, though some "night" bars close at 3am tops. It's the law, they have to close. So if you're inside one of them, and that you're really thirsty, think about ordering your drinks around 00.30 because it happens that they don't sell anymore arond that time. It happens that they ring a bell to tell you that it's time to buy your last drinks, if you want to.
Night bars
Those are bars that have an extended closing time of 3am. There are bouncers for some of them.

Lowell church gets a new steeple
by Micaela Bedell
LOWELL — A new steeple was installed on Lowell's 72-year-old Congregational Church building this past Saturday.
Open the doors of Lowell Congregational and you'll find a large, diverse family, said member Becky Erdman at Saturday's steeple raising. But the congregation wasn't always so big, and a new steeple wouldn't have been possible without material donations and volunteer work from an influx of new members.
"It's literally standing room. We have to put chairs in the aisles," said Mrs. Erdman of the 30- to 80-member increase in membership.
Verniece St. Onge, the longest participating member of the congregation at over 50 years, attributed the increase in membership to "young blood."
"We've got a young family here with a new pastor," she said. "And a choir, which we haven't had in years. We're just booming. We're full of life again."
Mrs. St. Onge and others attribute recent membership increases to Pastor David Dizazzo.
"When this pastor took over full time there was just — I don't know. People were affected," said new member Don Nolti. "He's a great Bible-believing, Bible-preaching pastor, which is what attracted me."
Pastor Dizazzo, who gave his first sermon in the church on January 1, 2012, calls it more of a "right place at the right time" situation. As he watched the beginning of the installation process, he mused on the symbolism of raising a cross higher onto the church.
"It's very symbolic to us because, as a church, the goal is to lift Jesus higher," he said. "As we lift him up in our own lives, on top of the church is also this stainless steel cross."
Mrs. Erdman agreed that the cross is symbolic, but took it further.
"It's a very modern cross going onto a very conservative church building," she said. "And [the combination] is going to work. Because that's exactly what's going on inside."
It took more than four hours to put up the new steeple Saturday morning. It was done by congregation member Omer Roberge and his stepson Brian Dodds. Over 140 hours went into welding the cross that topped the steeple, a product of North Country Union High School's Career Center. Instructor Roger Wells led seniors Ben Duranleau and Calvin Peacock and junior Paige Gagnon on the project.
Mr. Dodds constructed the base for the steeple, and roof brackets were donated by Guay General Repair and Steel in Newport Center. Desrochers Crane Service in Derby also donated some time and equipment.
As the 170-year-old bell of Lowell Congregational rings to announce the new addition there are smiles all around. The church has never had a steeple, but as eight-year-old Caleb Dizazzo put it, "This church was made for a steeple."

Some look more like gun targets than traffic lights, but the state Department of Transportation says even though they were 75 times more expensive than their predecessor, they annually save the state about $1 million.
The traffic signals are LEDs, or light emitting diodes, that after six and seven years of flashing off and on are starting to die out. As the lights are made up of multiple diodes, some diodes have expired, giving the signals their pockmarked appearance. Not all the older lights demonstrate the same characteristics, just those from a manufacturer that did not incorporate a diffuser lens, says Robert Rocchio, manager of DOT traffic engineering. While lights with the diffuser are also made up of multiple diodes, they appear to fade before going out totally.
However, while the lights eventually reach the point where they need to be replaced, there's no question they have been a good deal for the state. The experience with traffic signals now has DOT exploring the use of the technology for overhead street lighting.
"Now the next big change is in highway lighting," Rocchio said.
He said the department is working on a proposal to replace 400-watt high-pressure sodium (HPS) lights on Route 95 between Exits 1 and 4 with 200-watt LEDs.
Like the traffic signals, LED street lights are exponentially more costly than HPS lights. Rocchio said HPS's cost about $200, whereas the LED replacement is about $1,000. Rocchio said overhead LEDs that produce a whiter light and do not give the orange glow of an aging HPS are being used in parts of Texas and California but, so far, not in the Northeast. He said DOT would seek grants to fund a pilot program for the Route 95 project of 100 lights.
Even without changing lights on the interstate highways, the DOT is generating $600,000 in savings by turning them off. More than a year ago, the department introduced a system of turning off lights after midnight from Exits 1 through 8 on Route 95 from Sunday to Thursday and after 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday. Retrofitting signs and road stripes with greater reflective materials preceded the program.
The department imagined they would get complaints about the reduced lighting, but to the contrary, they received compliments from people who were pleased by the reduction in ambient lighting. Further, experience has shown no increase in accidents from the absence of lighting in these less traveled sections of highway.
As the DOT discovered with traffic signals, LEDs make up for more than their added expense in reduced electrical and maintenance costs. The LED's longer life – a traffic signal bulb is warranted for five years although, as the DOT is discovering, can last many more years – outshines its incandescent predecessor that died after six months. Incandescent 116-watt bulbs cost $2 each as compared to the 12-watt LEDs at $150. The reduced wattage of the state's 800 traffic signals, Rocchio estimates, saves $1 million in electrical costs.
That's just part of the picture. With the lights' longer lives, DOT crews aren't spending as much time replacing bulbs that requires a special detail officer to route traffic while the intersection is inoperative.
While LED traffic signals generate savings, they are no less susceptible to lightning than their cousins. Despite efforts to ground the lights, Rocchio said in storms like the one that hit last Wednesday, the state will lose two to three lights. The lightning strikes do not only knock out the bulbs but generally "fry" the signal's computer as well. The department has looked at concrete poles, as used in areas with frequent electrical storms such as Florida, but not found a replacement program practical.
Signals that require a massive foundation, trenching for road sensors and the devise with its computer components cost about $100,000.
As for the LEDs that are going out as they age, Rocchio said they are being replaced. And while the individual cost of the bulbs hasn't changed significantly, there's a trade-in value to the old bulbs – about $75 each – that just means more savings to the state.

Google Sued Because Some People Wonder If Jon Hamm Is Jewish
from the they-should-just-ask-adam-sandler dept
The lawsuit is being fought by a group, SOS Racisme, which claims to "fight discrimination," but if that's the case, then one hopes that racism has all but been obliterated in France, since the group has moved on to fighting ridiculous cases like this one. All that Google autocomplete is showing is that a lot of people (potentially ignorant ones) have searched for these names, along with the keyword "jew" or "jewish" to determine if the individual is Jewish. The fact that users search for something and Google displays that isn't something Google should be liable for. Why blame Google for the actions of its users?
But, more to the point -- and I say this as someone who is Jewish -- what the hell is anti-semitic about doing such searches in the first place? I'm really at a complete loss to understand why this is so horrible. Yes, the reason behind the searches may be ignorance (and some of the results may point to pages that spread ignorance), but the group bringing the lawsuit seem to be suggesting that this is an absolutely horrible thing that people may be prompted to do searches on whether or not non-Jews are really Jews. The only way this story makes any sense is if all real racism and anti-semitism and other forms of ignorance and bigotry have all been eradicated in Europe. Assuming that's not actually the case, perhaps it's just one clueless group overreacting.

Yahoo Doesn't Want You To Know Its Spying Price List; Issues DMCA Takedown
from the can-the-pricelist-be-copyrighted? dept
Of course, it didn't take long for someone to leak Yahoo's spying price list (or, more accurately, its "compliance guide for law enforcement," which also includes some pricing info) to Cryptome.org. Other, similar documents were also posted to Cryptome from other service providers, but the only one who freaked out appears to be Yahoo. Robert Ring alerts us that Yahoo sent a DMCA takedown request to Cryptome over the document. Cryptome appears to have just posted the takedown request along with its ongoing email discussion with Yahoo's lawyers, while leaving the original document in place.
Of course, by now, you can rest assured that Yahoo's document has been copied in all sorts of places, just by nature of Yahoo's attempt to hide it. It makes you wonder why the company even bothered in the first place.

WWBA shifts into full gear on second day of play
JUPITER, Fla. -- Perfect Game's World Wood Bat Association World Championship featured several intriguing pitchers on Thursday's Opening Day, which included 19 games. But the final major event on the high school showcase circuit didn't really get into full swing until Friday.
Dozens of top prospects for the 2014-16 First Year Player Drafts took the field in 54 games, with start times from 8 a.m. ET through 7:40 p.m. and as many as 12 contests going on at once. That's why teams deploy squadrons of scouts to Jupiter's Roger Dean Stadium complex -- there's simply too much action for an individual to take in at once.
JUPITER, Fla. -- Perfect Game's World Wood Bat Association World Championship featured several intriguing pitchers on Thursday's Opening Day, which included 19 games. But the final major event on the high school showcase circuit didn't really get into full swing until Friday.
Dozens of top prospects for the 2014-16 First Year Player Drafts took the field in 54 games, with start times from 8 a.m. ET through 7:40 p.m. and as many as 12 contests going on at once. That's why teams deploy squadrons of scouts to Jupiter's Roger Dean Stadium complex -- there's simply too much action for an individual to take in at once.
That didn't stop us from trying. We picked our spots on Friday, and here's what we saw:
• Evoshield Canes right-hander Brandon Murray (Hobart H.S., Hobart, Ind.) created buzz by reaching 96 mph earlier in the summer, but he wasn't as overpowering when he worked the first two innings of a 12-0 rout of the Texas Sun Devils. He topped out at 94 mph and mostly sat at 91.
Murray has good strength in his 6-foot-4, 200-pound frame, but he also has some effort in his delivery. He wasn't especially sharp on Friday, throwing just 22 of 39 pitches for strikes while relying almost solely on his fastball. He threw only four curveballs, which ranged from 73-76 mph, but none of them found the strike zone. He's a South Carolina recruit.
The main attraction on the Sun Devils was supposed to be athletic shortstop Ti'quan Forbes (Columbia H.S., Columbia, Miss.), but he was absent because of football commitments.
• After Murray left the game, I hustled over to the other side of the complex, hoping to catch late-inning at-bats from Alex Verdugo (Sahuaro H.S., Tucson, Ariz.) and Michael Chavis (Sprayberry High, Marietta, Ga.).
Verdugo is also a prospect as a pitcher, and he struck out nine in three innings on the mound on Thursday. The 6-foot, 195-pound lefty has a quick bat and good feel for hitting, which were on display when he pulled a ground-rule double to right field in the sixth inning.
The Arizona State recruit finished the game 1-for-3 with a walk. A solid runner who usually plays center field, he played left in this game for the Texas Scout Team Yankees.
Chavis, who plays for Team Rawlings and has committed to Clemson, struck out against a breaking ball in the fifth inning. Earlier in the game, he drilled a triple to center field and made a nice play on a slow roller at third base, though he also mishandled a throw from the outfield.
Scouts who like the 5-foot-11, 180-pound Chavis believe in his bat and solid all-round athleticism. He won the Home Run Derby at the Perfect Game All-American Classic at Petco Park in August.
• The ever-present golf carts were stacked three and four deep around Marlins Field 4 at 12:40 p.m., as left-hander Kodi Medeiros (Waiakea H.S., Hilo, Hawaii) was the main attraction of the day. Medeiros, who flew in from Hawaii to join the Ohio Warhawks, pitched the first three innings of an 8-0 win over Chandler Baseball.
Though Medeiros didn't display the 92-95 mph fastball and quality slider he featured in an inning of work at the PG All-American Classic, he still impressed with the life on his heater. The 6-foot, 185-pound southpaw throws from a low arm slot, and his fastball dances all over the place.
Medeiros threw 29 of 43 pitches for strikes, averaging 90 mph with his fastball and topping out at 94. He struggled to keep his upper-70s slider in the strike zone, but he recorded a pair of strikeouts with his diving changeup in the second inning. He has committed to Pepperdine.
Right-hander Jonathan Teaney (Quartz Hill H.S., Quartz Hill, Calif.) followed Medeiros on the mound for the Warhawks and was also impressive. A San Diego recruit, he has a quick arm and projection remaining in his 6-foot-2, 175-pound frame.
Teaney threw just 15 of his 28 pitches for strikes, but allowed only a hit batter in two innings of work. He recorded three strikeouts (two looking) with an 89-92 mph fastball and showed impressive depth on his 80-82 mph curveball.
The Cardinals Scout Team/FTB Chandler has the deepest lineup in Jupiter, but that didn't faze Team Northwest righthander Matthew Mercer (Timberline H.S., Lacey, Wash.), a junior who will be Draft-eligible in 2015. He struck out the side in the first inning: Nicholas Gordon (Olympia H.S., Orlando, Fla.), Forrest Wall (Orangewood Christian H.S., Maitland, Fla.) and Alex Jackson (Rancho Bernardo H.S., San Diego, Calif.), all of whom project to go in the first couple of rounds of the 2014 Draft.
Mercer is a slender 6-foot-2, 160-pound right-handed hitter who has already committed to Washington State. He hides the ball well with a deceptive delivery, and he consistently missed bats Friday with both his 88-90 mph fastball and 71-75 mph curveball. He worked into the sixth before tiring, and the Northwest bullpen couldn't hold the lead in what became a 9-5 Cardinals victory.
Jackson could be the first position player drafted in June, but he didn't do much in this game. He struck out twice against Mercer fastballs, knocked him out of the game with a broken-bat single and whiffed on an offspeed pitch in the seventh.
The 6-foot-2, 210-pound player has impressive raw power from the right side of the plate, but his swing can get long, and he has been missing fastballs in Jupiter. He also did so Thursday night as well against some quality Cangelosi Baseball pitching, though he also went 2-for-3 with a double in that game. An Oregon recruit, Jackson has a strong arm behind the plate, but wasn't tested on Friday by Northwest.
Gordon, the son of former All-Star Tom Gordon and brother of current Dodgers infielder Dee Gordon, went 0-for-4 at the plate, grounding out three times after his first-inning strikeout. He did show off his plus-speed when he pressured a Northwest infielder into a seventh-inning error. He bats left-handed, but he'll need to add strength to his 6-foot-2, 170-pound frame to do damage at the plate.
Gordon had a rough game defensively on Thursday and spent Friday as an extra hitter and a second baseman, but he has the actions and arm strength to make it at shortstop. Scouts had hoped to see the Florida State recruit close the game on the mound, but the Cardinals changed their game plan and will pitch him later in the tournament. He has displayed a low-90s fastball and a sharp curveball in short stints during the summer, though it's believed he'd prefer to be an everyday player.
The most impressive Cardinals on Friday were shortstop Milton Ramos (Florida Christian H.S., Miami) and right-hander Alex Faedo (Alonso H.S., Tampa, Fla.). A Florida Atlantic recruit, Ramos is an outstanding defender and made two nice plays at short, and he also drilled two line-drive singles at the plate. Faedo, a Florida commit, worked two scoreless innings with a 90-93 mph fastball and a 79-82 mph slider.
• Toronto Blue Jays Scout Team shortstop Jacob Gatewood (Clovis H.S., Clovis, Calif.) looks the part. He's a 6-foot-5, 190-pound right-handed hitter who moves well, has a strong arm and can put on as impressive a batting-practice display as just about anyone. He made a name for himself by winning the junior portion of the All-Star Game Home Run Derby, blasting 13 homers with a metal bat at Citi Field in July, then won the same event at the Under Armour All-America Game at Wrigley Field in August.
While Gatewood has impressive strength and bat speed, his power doesn't translate easily in game action. Committed to Southern California, he has a long swing and a very busy setup at plate, leading to struggles with his timing. He went 0-for-3 Friday night against GBG Marucci, striking out on a high 87-mph fastball and hitting a pair of routine groundouts to shortstop.
GBC Marucci, which rallied for a 5-4 win, has one of the deeper rosters in Jupiter. The standout on Friday was shortstop Josh Morgan (Orange Lutheran H.S., Orange, Calif.), who went 3-for-3 with a double off an 89-mph fastball, a walk and two steals.
The 5-foot-11, 180-pound right-handed hitter has impressive power and makes consistent contact. A UCLA recruit, he may have the defensive chops to stay at shortstop and should provide enough offense even if he moves to third base down the road.

The state Gaming Commission has extended the deadline for the second phase of casino applications from July to November.
BOSTON — Casino licenses will not be issued in southeastern Massachusetts until February, following a decision Thursday by the state Gaming Commission.
The second-phase application deadline for commercial casino proposals was tentatively pushed back to Sept. 23.
Chairman Stephen Crosby said commissioners will likely set the exact deadline at its next meeting, when it will also likely decide whether to waive the $500 million minimum investment requirement in an effort to encourage more applications.
"It would send a signal to them that we're not forcing them to submit an application that isn't as fully developed as they would like it to be," Gaming Commission ombudsman John Ziemba said.
The decision came after KG Urban and the city of New Bedford requested an extension. Fall River, which hopes to strike a deal with Foxwoods for a commercial casino, opposed any delay.
"We're stuck with extending it some because we'd get no proposals with the current deadline," Crosby said.
Uncertainty over the Mashpee Wampanoag's efforts to build a tribal casino in Taunton is likely a factor in the southeastern market, he said.
The commission previously targeted July as second-phase application deadline and November as the licensure date.
Claremont Co. of Bridgewater has also expressed interest in a casino, but has yet to submit a formal proposal.
The Mashpee Wampanoag tribe, which hopes to build a tribal casino in Taunton, was initially given a window of exclusivity in southeastern Massachusetts. Amid questions over the tribe's ability to qualify for the federal land designation needed to establish a reservation and build a tribal casino, the Gaming Commission decided last year to open the region to commercial casino applicants.
The Gaming Commission also voted Thursday to meet May 1 on Boston's request to be considered a host community for the Revere and Everett casino proposals.
The commission had planned to award a casino license by June to either Wynn Resorts' Everett proposal or Mohegan Sun's proposed casino at Suffolk Downs, but that action will likely now be delayed to August.
