COLLEGE STATION – Hard to believe considering the Aggies have played football since 1894, but prior to this season Texas A&M had never played at Ole Miss, Auburn, Mississippi State or Alabama as nonconference foes.
The Aggies wind up their wildly-successful first Southeastern Conference road swing starting at 2:30 p.m. Saturday at the pinnacle of all SEC journeys – Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
"I for sure want to enjoy the atmosphere, it's one of the reasons I came back," A&M senior receiver Ryan Swope said of bypassing the NFL for a senior season in the SEC. "To go to all of these venues and be a part of that. But we're also treating this like a business trip. We have to go over there and take care of business, and we know it's going to be rowdy."
A&M's Kevin Sumlin has coached in Bryant-Denny before, as Oklahoma's special teams coordinator and tight ends boss under Bob Stoops, when the top-ranked Sooners used a fake punt to help defeat the Crimson Tide 20-13 on Sept. 6, 2003.
At the time Sumlin was only months removed from his job as A&M's offensive coordinator under R.C. Slocum, before Slocum was fired following the 2002 season. Meanwhile Alabama was only months removed from Dennis Franchione splitting Tuscaloosa for College Station, and Mike Shula taking over for Franchione. Both ultimately failed at their new gigs.
I asked Sumlin this week if he allows himself to enjoy the historical aspect of the Aggies' visit to Bryant-Denny, or is it all business for a program that's won its first three SEC road games in its first year in the league – and the last two at Auburn and Mississippi State by a combined 67 points.
"It's something you look back on at the end of the season," Sumlin said. "It's hard to do in the middle of preparation, but I'm sure at the end of the year we'll look back on it and see it for what it is."

The Secret Beyond Matter
Now let's talk about something in our bodies that is too small to be seen. Scientists call it DNA. But first, let's consider an example that will make it easier to understand what DNA is.
The subject of our example is letters and words.
House, car, garden, cat, flower, park, street.We know that words are made up of letters, but these letters certainly did not form words by themselves by chance. Let's carry out an experiment and see what happens. Here are some small tags with a number or a letter written on each one. If you like, we can watch them for a long time. Do you think that these letters and numbers could ever come together and form a sensible sentence? Surely not. Let's go a step further and throw the small tags on the floor at random. Could they form a meaningful sentence now? Never. However hard we may try, it is quite impossible. Imagine that we got tired of trying and left the room for ten minutes. When we came back and found a note saying, "Hi, how are you?", what would we think?
We would know right away that these letters had not lined themselves up at random. It would be evident to us that someone had come and arranged them one by one to form a sensible statement.
This example shows us a law: whenever something has been written that has a meaning, someone must have written it. Now, let's examine DNA with this law in mind.In the 20th century, scientists made some important discoveries. They found that the human body is made up of 100 trillion tiny cells. These cells are too small to be seen with the naked eye, but when we examine them under a microscope, we see something else quite amazing. In the center of each cell a plan has been written down that determines the character not only of the cell but of all the organs in the body. Scientists call this plan DNA. It is a long chain of molecules that resembles a ladder.
Actually, DNA is an alphabet composed of four letters- A, T, C and G.
A = Adenine; B = Thymine; C = Cytosine; G= Guanine
These are coded in such a way that the DNA of a single cell contains enough information to fill an encyclopedia a million pages long. Everything is written in it: the color of your eyes, the shape of your eyebrows, the color of your hair, the size of your nose, the color of your skin, the shape of your face and the properties of your cells. Did you notice? In the DNA of a single cell there is not just one letter, one sentence or one book; there is enough information contained in it to fill all the encyclopedias in a huge library. Scientists have calculated that the amount of DNA that could fit into a teaspoon would be able to contain all the information contained in every book that has ever been written in the world. Surely, such a marvelous structure cannot have come into existence by itself by chance. Just as a single written sentence proves to us that someone wrote it, so the encyclopedias full of knowledge contained in DNA prove to us without a doubt that Allah exists.

With Britney Spears embroiled in a seemingly neverending custody battle and 17-year-old sis Jamie Lynn Spears expecting her first child very soon, it's hard to imagine a family under more scrutiny these days than the Spears clan.
But in spite of all the outside pressure on them, it was nothing but good times for the Spears sisters when they reunited on May 2 for the Zoey 101 star's baby shower.
"It was wonderful to be able to spend time with her and just be girls again," Jamie Lynn told OK! in an exclusive interview about seeing her sister for the first time in months. "We painted our nails and did stupid stuff."
Even better, explains Jamie Lynn, was that she was able to have some one-on-one time with Brit: "To be able to be in the privacy of our own home and just be sisters again was wonderful."
Mother-of-two Britney even shared some words of wisdom with her pregnant sibling. "She told me, 'There are going to be some long nights, but it is completely worth it,'" Jamie Lynn recalls to OK!.
As for whether or not the pop superstar will make it back home to Louisiana when Jamie Lynn has the baby, the teen star tells OK!, "Nothing is set in stone, but that would be wonderful. I'd love to have her here for that, but you can't plan that far ahead."
Even if Brit isn't there in person for her younger sister, the two are in almost-constant contact, says Jamie Lynn.

(Britney, Jamie Lynn, Lynne Spears, Casey's sister Ashley Aldridge and his mom Joyce Aldridge at the May 2 shower)

8-car crash cleared on Merritt Parkway
Police, firefighters and state Department of Transportation workers have cleared up an eight-car crash on the Merritt Parkway in north Greenwich Friday morning.
The crash occurred in the northbound lanes just past Exit 31 at North Street, a fire dispatcher said. No injuries were reported in the crash.
Ice along a left hand turn just past North Street was cited as the cause of the 6:40 a.m. crash, the dispatcher said.
DOT sanders were put on the road as the cars were being cleared off. The roadway was reopened at 8:12 a.m., the dispatcher said.
A multiple-vehicle crash on the Merritt Parkway in Greenwich is backing up traffic on the northbound side.
The crash, reportedly involving as many as seven cars and trucks, is near Exit 31. State Police said portions of the the parkway are closed at that exit, and that icy conditions appear to have been the cause of the chain collision.

The National Basketball Association thinks it has figured out what fans are hungry for besides a championship: edible team logos. The league recently signed unusual licensing deals with companies that offer these edible items – and more. The pizza logos, made of sugar, starch and food coloring, will add about $5 to the price of a pizza. Via USA Today.
So, hot or not?

A) has constrictive bat wings instead of arms; and
B) cost $98 and then immediately went on sale for less than half the price, but I couldn't return it because seriously I cannot move my arms. Send help.
Anyway, apparently Anthro has decided that it deals in rocks now. Yes, rocks. I guess this is good in one respect: Now crystal fiends can shop discreetly without having to walk into one of those weird stores like the one that just opened in my neighborhood called "Stoned," which I can't even bring myself to look at when I walk past because the inside looks like Prince's Purple Rain album ejaculated on everything and the name makes me cringe, thinking Dude, be cool.
So guess how much a quartz cluster costs at AnthropoloGee, I've Always Wanted To Eat My Cereal Out of a Wee Bowl Made of Felt*?
*no, for real
Have you guessed? $98. Now you tell me: Which of the below photos is the real crystal...
...and which is $1 worth of rock candy?
Similarly, who needs to pay $38 for pyrite...
When you can ball up a wad of tin foil for essentially the same effect?
A single $3.49 45-ft roll of Reynolds Wrap, and your Christmas shopping is done. Time for wine!
This "unearthed trivet" disk goes for $78...
...but I'm pretty sure I have a wizened, five-month old kiwi somewhere in my crisper that I can just lop in half. Instant glamour!
So there you have it: For $5, you can approximate $214 worth of merchandise. Just remember not to wrap the kiwi until right before you are ready to open gifts; it may disintegrate or start to smell. But at the end of the day, it's really the thought that counts.

Just before Christmas we had the opportunity to visit Medieval Times Dallas where we enjoyed dinner and a medieval tournament complete with knights, dancing horses, a Falconer, and of course royalty. This was our third visit and we enjoyed it just as much as ever. If you've never been, I highly recommend it. You're family will love it....and the food is great, too!
Upon arrival each guest is welcomed to the castle, assigned a knight and given a crown that represents his color. The door open 75 minutes before the show and you'll want to arrive early. There are lots to see and do before the show even begins.
Our knight was the Red Knight.
At our seats we found a pennant and towel to help us cheer on our knight, who did a great job!
The show opened with great pomp as the king arrived and our food began to be served. Now, there is one thing to know, in order to keep the experience as authentic as possible..... there's NO silverware. No one in the 11th century used silverware so you get to eat with your fingers. I will say, they don't make it too difficult. The delicious tomato bisque soup is served in a bowl with a handle so it's easy to drink, the chicken pulls off the bone very easily and the potato wedges and corn on the cob are nature finger foods.
Although, the first time we visited, my daughter was not looking forward to the idea of eating with her fingers and slipped utensils from home into her purse. Our server got a good laugh out of it.
At the end of each contest the knights are given carnations to throw into the audience. The girls go crazy over this.
The games were really fun to watch and take a great amount of skill. These knights train for months in order to be able to compete.
Of course, no medieval tournament would be complete without a joust. Our knight did pretty well.
In typical 11th century fashion, there was a "bad guy" who tried to force the princess to marry him but fortunately, her brave knights came to the rescue and the realm was saved! I love it when the good guys win!
Now is the perfect time to plan your visit to Medieval Times. They have an exclusive offer... My Readers save at Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament. CLICK HERE and use this exclusive promo code MT3629 through 2/17/17 and receive Adults for just $36.95 and children (12 and under) only $29.95.

�LACKAWAXEN - Wednesday, April 17 at 10 a.m. people are invited to join the Pike County Conservation District staff and the Area Agency on Aging Lackawaxen Seniors when they check in on a rain garden that was installed last October at the Lackawaxen Fire Hall.
Located next to the parking lot of the Senior Center at the Lackawaxen Fire Department, the rain garden filters out automobile fluids, sediment and salts from the parking lot. The garden also allows the run-off to seep into the soil and enter the groundwater clean and free of contaminants.
With Lackawaxen Township Supervisors and Road Crew's assistance, the Lackawaxen Seniors chose and installed flowers that thrive under the tough growing conditions of a rain garden in Lackawaxen. The native plants chosen, are tolerant to a short growing season, hot and cold temperatures, road salt, drought and flooding. They also need to have some deer resistance, a height that doesn�t interfere with visibility when exiting the parking lot, beneficial traits for local wildlife such as birds and butterflies and be beautiful to look at throughout the growing season. Black-eyed Susans, Scarlet and Lavender Bee Balm and Blue Flag Iris should be emerging and getting ready to do their job purifying the run-off and beautifying the Senior Center entrance at the same time.
People can plant a rain garden this spring in their own yard to help make a difference by protecting Pike County�s clean streams, precious rivers and healthy drinking water now and for future generations.
The Pike County Conservation District�s Watershed Specialist, Lori Colgan, will be on hand to explain how to install your own rain garden and all the benefits they provide. The garden is located at the Lackawaxen Fire Department at the corner of Lieutenant Corporal Jacob Beisel Road and Route 590 in Lackawaxen. People will meet at the parking lot on Beisel Road at 10 a.m., Wednesday, April 17. For information or to register, call the Pike County Conservation District at (570) 226-8220 or email Lori at

When the U.S. House of Representatives passed the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 in June, the industry knew that big changes were coming. The bill may still be in the Senate, but software companies are staying one step ahead, producing programs to help businesses and environmental professionals transition into the "green" economy.
"[Companies] see the regulation coming," said Michael Banville, vice president of Climate Change and Clean Energy, IHS Inc. "But they're also trying to become more operationally efficient."
IHS' ecoAsset Manager is a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions workflow and task management system that tries to help companies be efficient in their reduction efforts. "… If you're in an emissions trading scheme, like we already have in the U.S. on NOx and SO2 emissions—but also with CO2 in Europe—the program helps you manage all the workflow around trading," said Banville, explaining that the program allows clients to compare their allowance position with their internal emissions inventory.
Because emissions regulations vary by country and by state, the IHS Greenhouse Gas Suite helps multinational corporations organize emissions data from facilities around the world into a common platform. The software supports the EU Environmental Trading Scheme, the , Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, and the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, among other emissions programs.
According to Banville, ArcelorMittal, a multinational steel manufacturer based in Luxembourg, wanted the ability to look at emissions data, measure its carbon footprint, and determine ways to reduce it. Although the European Union scheme was the company's initial driver, its managers also wanted to be able to measure data from facilities in other countries.
"You can imagine the data in Kazakhstan probably looked very different from the data in the U.S. versus India in terms of the form and the level of automation," Banville explained, adding that once all the information is centralized, managers can easily adapt compliance reports as regulations change.
The Greenhouse Gas Suite enables ArcelorMittal to pull reports at a multinational level and analyze facility level data as well. Custom facility-based reports can help the manufacturer establish performance metrics and benchmarks, using certain data sets for that facility within a common structure. The result is an "apples to apples" comparison, Banville noted.
Another good use of this software is determining, at the asset level, significant contributions to a company's carbon footprint. Banville explained that the program can indicate what it is within an industrial process—a certain pump or compressor, for example—that's increasing GHG emissions. Once the culprit has been identified, the "facility manager can make link decisions that can move the needle on their environmental footprint," he said.
GHG emissions tracking may be the hottest software add-on in the environmental regulation sector, but environmental professionals still rely on facility management software programs to maintain reporting schedules.

ChemSW's Chemical Inventory System, CISPro Client/Server , manages, tracks, and reports chemicals and other laboratory supplies by hazard class regulatory status. The program creates Tier II reports, which must be submitted annually to the local emergency planning committee, the state emergency response commission, and the local fire department.
"Let's say you have a shack with very flammable liquid. That's very dangerous," said Brian Stafford, president of ChemSW, explaining that an effective inventory system helps reduce risk and prevents companies from exceeding their exemption limits. Many chemicals under exemption limits fall into the Fire, Chronic, Immediate/Acute, Reactive, and Pressure hazard classes and can only be stored on-site in small amounts.
CISPro also provides companies with a common platform to manage their chemical inventory multinationally, reducing the complexity of reporting. "The system can compare a site to regulations appropriate to that site," Stafford said.
ChemSW recently added CISPro Global, a software as a service application that employees can access over the Internet. The framework enables ongoing upgrades and system support and gives administrators the ability to customize data access levels for individuals or groups.
SI Live is a SaaS mobile application that lets employees search for chemicals onsite, uploading inspection forms to a mobile phone and downloading the data onto the program for reporting.
Of course, staying in compliance with regulations will always be the main priority for companies.
In 2009, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency released a new addition to its Toxic Release Inventory Program: the TRI-MEweb. Facilities can use this online filing system to submit their toxic inventory reports to EPA and their state agencies. Filers receive instant receipt confirmation for their submissions and keep their reports in compliance with Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act reporting requirements.
Having data on a common platform allows software companies to create add-ons that will organize information based on a certain set of parameters. With CISPro, clients can integrate regulatory lists and 3E's Ariel Global Chemical and Regulatory Content. "You can organize the regulatory lists by all agencies, even by local, county, and country requirements," Stafford explained.
The trick to staying in compliance is keeping up with regulatory changes and software companies are here to help.
IHS, for example, is developing an analytical tool—working name: Environmental Business Intelligence—that would run different emissions scenarios to help clients reduce their carbon footprint.
"We think that our value is not just to provide software on their emissions, but also to help them make the bigger strategic decision on 'what's my abatement project strategy?' and 'what types of investments should I be making to affect my footprint?'" Banville said.

Bali deserves two thumbs signals in terms of modifications. Their work, especially for motorcycles, has a value of very high art. Maybe you still remember the Honda Vario diamond studded or low-rider Honda Beat Kompas.com displayed.
This time, there's nothing more powerful, the work I Dewa Gede Agus Umbara. Incidentally, Agus was an artist. No doubt, Honda Supra 1999 production was constrained ogoh-ogoh alien style. Agus so called results of this hand skills.
Of view, the process needed a calm, precision, and patience and a bit complex because so many details. "We did keep his alien form perfect, such as the bone loss, legs, and head," he explained.
Deserves praise back to Agus because he uses the waste, not the new components. Lyrics of the tail and head. He said that the use of waste from the fence combined with a motor component unused. He took the example of shockbreker front, gear, until the chain.
Fuel tank is made of a tube in the middle of the rod. Admittedly, filling stations must use the small tube. Then, several former shockbreker made hand and foot.
Although the form of many doubtful if these aliens can walk, Agus ensure made able to slide. Only, he says that for the new will take, he had to adapt because the bike was heavy. Then, buttocks feel uncomfortable because sitting on hard metal.

Also, Harvard's buildings are significantly uglier than Y or S. There are some gorgeous onces, but overall, there's just no cohesion. Having said that, we do have a tons of them and our own campus, which I prefer to a single building. Still, if our buildings were people, you'd definitely regret sleeping with them as you walked home in the morning.
FWIW I thought the buildings at SLS weren't that great - reminded me of taco bell style architecture.
Although the main Stanford campus is gorgeous.

Denver Lutheran set to close its gym — the Lighthouse — after 43 years
When all the celebrations are over tonight — those celebrations marking all those moments through history — and the fans shuffle out, there will be a moment when the only person who remains is the one charged with the gym's care. Tonight, that person will flip a switch that extinguishes the lights in Denver Lutheran's Lighthouse for the last time.
The school, which is set to merge with Lutheran-Parker next fall, is holding the final two games in its gyms' near 43-year history tonight. Both the girls (5:30 p.m. tip) and the boys (7 p.m.) squads will play CIVA Charter in the District Four playoffs.
"It's kind of one of those bittersweet things," said Rany Gager, who coaches the third-seeded girls (12-7). "We'll try to make it as much of a celebration as possible, but it's going to be kind of sad for many, many people. End-of-an-era kind of thing, I guess."
It's an era that started Feb. 24, 1968, the day the gym rocked. The Lighthouse had opened just in time to close 1968's regular season against rival Denver Christian.

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) – The way Rory McIlroy has played the back nine at the TPC Sawgrass, he should be in position to win The Players Championship.
The way he has played the front nine, he was lucky to make the cut.
Rarely has there been such a tale of two nines. Through three rounds, McIlroy was 21 shots better on the back nine. He padded that total Saturday by closing with three straight birdies for a 69, atoning for another rugged start.
''I'm 12-under par for the back nine, and I'm 9 over for the front nine,'' McIlroy said. ''I don't know what it is about the front. It's like kryptonite. I get on it and I just can't function.''
He was 4 over through six holes in the third round and appeared likely to miss the 54-hole cut. He played 7 under the rest of the way, with five birdies on the back nine. McIlroy was 6 over through six holes in the second round, and shot 32 on the back, including a birdie on the 18th to make the cut on the number.
In the opening round, he was among the leaders. Trouble was, he started on No. 10. When he got to the front nine, he made three bogeys on the last seven holes and had to settle for a 70.
''Once I get on the back nine, I feel so comfortable. I feel like I can shoot anything,'' McIlroy said. ''I've got to go out tomorrow and try to keep it together a little bit on the front nine, even if that means pars, not doing anything special.''
It's not just the Stadium Course. McIlroy is playing well enough to have won this year. He's hitting enough poor shots to hold him back.
''That's OK,'' he said. ''That's positive to know you're playing so many good shots and you're making birdies. I'm giving myself loads of chances. I'm converting a lot of them. I'm just making too many mistakes. But that's easier to sort out than not being able to make a lot of birdies.''
RYDER CUP FEVER: Martin Kaymer at times felt like he was at the Ryder Cup during the third round of The Players Championship.
That wasn't a good sign.
Jordan Spieth made a 12-foot par putt on the 18th hole. Kaymer then missed his 10-foot par putt, falling into a share of the lead with Spieth. After he missed the putt, there was audible cheering from around the 18th green ''which I wish didn't happen,'' Spieth said.
''When he missed his putt, there were some cheers … like a Ryder Cup,'' Spieth said. ''He handled it gracefully. Just a class act. Took his hat off, smiled, and we were saying how much we enjoyed playing with each other and we'll enjoy it tomorrow.''
Kaymer didn't seem put off.
He said when he won the 2010 PGA Championship at Whistling Straits, the gallery was clearly on the side of Bubba Watson.
''When you're trying to win a big tournament, usually the big tournaments you play them in American,'' said Kaymer, a 29-year-old German. ''So I'm always a foreigner. It's a good challenge. It's another challenge of that day. It's not easy, but I know what's going to happen. I know what I can expect, and therefore it's OK.''
Kaymer did OK in his last Ryder Cup. He beat Steve Stricker on the 18th hole to ensure Europe kept the Ryder Cup.
SECONDARY CUT: Because more than 78 made the cut, the PGA Tour's 54-hole cut was in effect. With a course like the TPC Sawgrass, making it to Sunday was more about not moving down than moving up.
Of the 19 players who made the 36-hole cut on the number (even-par 144), 15 of them advanced.
Ernie Els appeared to be one of them until hitting his second shot into the water on the par-5 16th and his tee shot into the water on the 18th. Those two double bogeys gave him a 75, and after signing his card, he said it was time to leave – or words to that affect. Els wound up missing the secondary cut by one shot.
Jeff Overton and Joost Luiten were at 2-under 142 going into Saturday. Overton shot 83 and Luiten shot 82, and both were on their way out of town. Also gone was Rickie Fowler, who had a 78, and Jonas Blixt, a runner-up at the Masters. He shot 77.
NO 1 CHASE: Even after a sluggish start, the race for No. 1 in the world is alive and well Sunday at The Players.
Adam Scott needed a birdie on the ninth hole Friday just to make the cut. He shot 69 on Saturday to move into a tie for 28th. Scott, depending on what the others do, could replace Tiger Woods atop the world ranking with at least a two-way tie for 16th.
Henrik Stenson, Bubba Watson and Matt Kuchar were tied for 13th, seven shots out of the lead.
Stenson would need to finish in a two-way tie for sixth or better. Watson has to finish alone in second. Kuchar would have to win.
Kuchar is the only player entered in the Byron Nelson Championship next week.

The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) has responded to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service's (APHIS) new livestock traceability rule, which was announced Dec. 20, 2012.
"The AVMA applauds APHIS for developing a new framework for animal disease traceability in the United States that establishes identification and documentation requirements for livestock moving interstate," says Ron DeHaven, DVM, AVMA CEO and a former APHIS administrator.
While the AVMA is pleased that new safeguards are in place, the association continues to support a mandatory, uniform national disease traceability and identification system that is consistent from state to state. This would more broadly protect the nation's food supply and food animal populations. Such a program, Dr. DeHaven says, would be the most effective way to accurately and promptly trace large numbers of animals moving during a large disease outbreak.
"The AVMA believes this new rule will lay the foundation to further strengthen U.S. animal disease prevention and response capabilities," DeHaven says. "It is our hope that this will lead to a more comprehensive, electronic system that will result in even greater improvements and more rapid animal traceability in the event of a disease outbreak. While it doesn't go as far as we would like, the new rule is a step in the right direction, and we are pleased that it is official."
The AVMA, founded in 1863, is one of the oldest and largest veterinary medical organizations in the world, with more than 82,500 member veterinarians worldwide engaged in a wide variety of professional activities and dedicated to the art and science of veterinary medicine.

Do you tend to call butts "heinies"?
Would you rather see a flower or a blue ribbon or a smiley face instead of the dark and muddy opening to what is unquestionably Satan's cave?
Do you remember when we used to sing... Fa la la la la la la la la la la te da...
Well, friends, you're in luck thanks to the Rear Gear shop on Etsy. It's supposed to be funny (its motto is "No More Mr. Brown-Eye") but it's also a real thing that costs $5. From the site:
"Rear Gear comes in many designs including a disco ball, air freshener, heart, flower, biohazard, smiley face, number one ribbon, cupcake, sheriff's badge, dice, and you can even make yours custom..."You can see I've highlighted "sheriff's badge," as this is my favorite. Hell, I kind of want one for myself. "I'm sorry, sir, you're not authorized 'round these parts. Move along."
The only question, really, is what the most awesome custom design would be. I think I'd go for an eye... or maybe a starfish.

"Though Mark's Gospel is the shortest Gospel in length, it is certainly not short in profound insights on the life and teaching of Our Lord. Mary Healy plumbs the depths and unwraps the riches of this Gospel for both the serious scholar and the novice alike in her easy-to-read and lucid style. With the incisiveness of a surgeon and the clarity of a scholar, she pulls back the curtain on the first century and the ministry of Jesus Christ. This commentary on Mark will fill an important place in my library!"--Steve Ray, lecturer; author of the Bible Study Guides for Genesis and Acts; and writer, producer, and host of the ten-part documentary series Footprints of God: The Story of Salvation from Abraham to Augustine
"Mary Healy skillfully and insightfully moves her readers to plumb the spiritual depths of Mark's Gospel through helpful sections of 'living tradition' and 'reflection and application.' I have found her commentary a boon in homily preparation. If the other volumes in the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture live up to the high standard that Healy has attained, Catholic Christians will be enriched and grateful."--Robert J. Karris, OFM, research professor, The Franciscan Institute, St. Bonaventure University
Series Overview▼▲
Accessibly written yet substantive, the CCSS fills a gap in the available literature by offering commentaries that provide more than brief study guides but are less daunting than academic works. The seventeen-volume series will cover the entire New Testament and will help readers rediscover Scripture as a living word in which God himself is present. It will appeal to lay and ordained Catholics involved in pastoral ministry as well as lay Catholics interested in serious Bible study, professors and students wanting an accessible theological and pastoral commentary from a Catholic perspective, and libraries.
The CCSS is supplemented by features designed to help readers use the Bible more effectively in teaching, preaching, evangelization, and other forms of ministry. Each volume provides exegesis as well as reflection and application sections to help readers apply Scripture to Christian life today. Sidebars that present information on the background of the text and on how the text has been interpreted by the Church are interspersed throughout the commentary. Abundant quotations from saints and Church Fathers enable readers to glimpse the continuity of the Catholic tradition. An Index of Pastoral Topics at the end of each volume allows readers to quickly locate passages that are relevant to Christian life and ministry.
Their rich content and engaging style makes these commentaries desirable not merely for reference but also as books to be relished for personal study or spiritual reading.
Series Endorsements▼▲
"This series of commentaries is just what the Church needs today. It combines sound exegesis with pastoral and spiritual sensitivity and is accessible to any Catholic who wishes a reliable commentary on Scripture that is understandable, solid in its scholarship, and applicable to life. Recommended."--Ralph Martin, director graduate theology programs in the new evangelization, Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Archdiocese of Detroit; author of The Fulfillment of All Desire: A Guidebook for the Journey to God Based on the Wisdom of the Saints
"The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture richly provides what has for so long been lacking among contemporary scriptural commentaries. Its goal is to assist Catholic preachers and teachers, lay and ordained, in their ministry of the Word. Moreover, it offers ordinary Catholics a scriptural resource that will enhance their understanding of God's Word and thereby deepen their faith. Thus these commentaries, nourished on the faith of the Church and guided by scholarly wisdom, are both exegetically sound and spiritually nourishing. They are indispensable tools for preaching, catechesis, evangelization, and other forms of pastoral ministry."--Thomas G. Weinandy, OFM Cap, executive director of the secretariat for doctrine, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops
"Catholic biblical literature is so abundant that one might raise the question, do we need another commentary on the Holy Scriptures? Such a question will inevitably arise in the minds of those for whom science and mathematics alone give us valid knowledge. But whereas these branches of knowledge grow 'horizontally' (that is, solve one problem to turn to the next), knowledge of God grows 'vertically.' Every word coming from the mouth of God is so rich in content that commentaries--profound as they are--can never exhaust the divine manna. This is why the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is to be warmly welcomed. It builds on the sublime insights delivered by tradition and adds another flower to the bouquet of human homage to revelation."--Alice von Hildebrand, professor emerita, City University of New York
"Those who preach and teach will find their burden lightened and turned into delight with the help of these commentaries. In a time when much biblical scholarship is written for other biblical scholars, these authors understand that the Bible is the book of the Church, the entire people of God."--Richard John Neuhaus, editor in chief, First Things
"Mary Healy and Peter S. Williamson, with Kevin Perrotta, have launched an exciting and most promising Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture. I plan to read and use it as a basis for preaching and am already profiting from the advanced segments."--Michael Scanlan, TOR, chancellor, Franciscan University of Steubenville
"This new Bible commentary series is based on solid scholarship and enriched by the church's long tradition of study and reflection. Enhanced by an attractive format, it provides an excellent resource for all who are serving in pastoral ministry and for the individual reader who searches the Scriptures for guidance in the Christian life."--Emil A. Wcela, Auxiliary Bishop (retired), Diocese of Rockville Centre; past president, Catholic Biblical Association
"Direct, clear, and spiritually rich, the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is just what we need today: patient exposition of God's Word that illuminates and is illuminated by the teaching and practice of the Church."--R. R. Reno, professor of theological ethics, Creighton University
"This new commentary series should meet a need that has long been pointed out: a guide to Scripture that will be both historically responsible and shaped by the mind of the Church's tradition. It promises to be a milestone in the recovery of a distinctively Catholic approach to exegesis."--Aidan Nichols, OP, John Paul II Memorial Visiting Lecturer, University of Oxford; Fellow of Greyfriars, Oxford
"In the four decades since the Second Vatican Council, Catholics of all backgrounds have been blessed with quite a number of excellent commentaries on the Sacred Scriptures. Many of these were very scholarly and others more popular. There has long been a need for a commentary that provides a certain amount of depth while still being very accessible to people of all backgrounds--preachers and teachers of the Word, lay or ordained, as well as ordinary Catholics. Peter Williamson, Mary Healy, and Kevin Perrotta have put together a team that is now writing a seventeen-volume New Testament series entitled The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture. Following the theological principle of Dei Verbum 12, that Scripture should be interpreted 'in accord with the same spirit by which it was written,' these volumes seek to integrate Scripture with Catholic doctrine, worship, and daily life. The authors and consulting editors are world-class theologians and Scripture scholars, the format is easy to read, and the price is hard to beat!"--Adam Cardinal Maida, Archbishop of Detroit
"Informed by careful scholarship, yet accessible to a wide audience, the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture belongs in homes, parishes, college classrooms, and anywhere that a clear, lively, faithful guide to Bible study is welcome. Catholics delving into Scripture will find here a first-class resource for discovering, or rediscovering, the spiritual riches of the New Testament."--Paul Thigpen, professor of theology, Southern Catholic College, Dawsonville, Georgia, and editor of The Catholic Answer magazine
"The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture employs the Church's methodology of studying Sacred Scripture in a faithful, dynamic, and fruitful way. With interest in Catholic Bible studies growing rapidly, the repeated question has been, 'can you suggest a reliable commentary?' The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is now the go-to resource that I can enthusiastically recommend to all my students."--Jeff Cavins, founder, The Great Adventure Catholic Bible Study System
"There is a great hunger among Catholic laity for a deeper understanding of the Bible. The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture fills the need for a more in-depth interpretation of Scripture. I am very excited to be able to recommend this new series to our Bible Study groups around the world."--Gail Buckley, founder and director, Catholic Scripture Study International (www.cssprogram.net)
"The Word of God is the source of Christian life, and the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is an ideal tool for living our faith more deeply. This extraordinary resource combines superior scholarship and a vivid, accessible style that will serve the interested layperson and the serious scholar equally well. It feeds both the mind and the heart and should be on the shelf of every committed Catholic believer. I highly recommend it."--Charles J. Chaput, OFM Cap, Archbishop of Denver
"This new Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture (New Testament) grew out of a perception that there was a need, yet to be met, for commentaries oriented to Christian faith and life today. The first two volumes--The Gospel of Mark and First and Second Timothy, Titus--indicate that this series promises to be spiritually and doctrinally informative, based on careful, solid biblical exegesis. The method and content of this work will be helpful to teachers of the faith at different levels and will provide a reliable guide to people seeking to deepen their knowledge and thereby nourish their faith. With the advance of secularism in our times Christian conviction and evangelization need sustained support, especially through Sacred Scripture. I strongly recommend the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture."--Cormac Cardinal Murphy-O'Connor, Archbishop of Westminster
"Pope Benedict XVI has reminded the Church that continuous encounter with the Word remains the source of her renewal and the font of 'a new spiritual Spring.' The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture affords its readers a helpful guide for encountering the books of the Bible in a way that respects both the whole of Scripture and the givens of Catholic faith. Many will discover in the volumes of this collection wellsprings of spiritual refreshment."--Romanus Cessario, OP, professor of systematic theology, St John's Seminary
"As a former evangelical Bible teacher I own hundreds of Bible commentaries, but after my conversion to the Catholic Church, I was dismayed by the lack of good Catholic commentaries on Scripture. It is thrilling to see the new seventeen-volume Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture, which is scholarly, easy to read, and faithful to Catholic teaching. The references to the Catechism, the Fathers of the Church, and a variety of other sources make this an exceptionally rich resource. Each volume is loaded with rich detail, theological insight, and helpful background information. These solidly orthodox Catholic scholars have done us a great service by filling the void--providing a commentary series on Scripture that has set a cutting-edge standard for years to come."--Steve Ray, lecturer; author of the Bible Study Guides for Genesis and Acts; and writer, producer, and host of the ten-part documentary series Footprints of God: The Story of Salvation from Abraham to Augustine
"Besides being a clearly written, comprehensive, and pastorally instructive guide to the Bible for Catholics, the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is also a great commentary for Protestant readers. By being faithful to the Church's teaching and by drawing so much from the wisdom of all of church history, it offers much to Protestant readers who want to read Scripture through the Great Tradition."--David Mills, editor of Touchstone: A Journal of Mere Christianity
"This new commentary series appears to me to be a gift of the Holy Spirit to Catholic clergy, religious, and laity at this historic moment. Pope Benedict has effectively announced the rebirth of Catholic biblical theology, bringing together Scripture, tradition, and the teachings of the Church. An up-to-date popular guide to the New Testament is urgently needed at this moment. This commentary reflects not only biblical criticism but also the unity of the Word of God as it applies to our lives. We accept this Word with the confident belief that these writings are given to us under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and reliably present the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ. It is imperative that we study the New Testament because, inspired by Christ himself, it is the guide to eternal life. This is a marvelous and timely introduction. Sign up and learn."--Benedict J. Groeschel, CFR, author and preacher
"By bringing together historical background, exegetical interpretation, church tradition, theological reflection, and pastoral application, this series promises to enkindle thoughtful discussion about the implications of the New Testament for lived Christian faith in the Church today. Its accessible format and multi-angled approach offer a model for teaching and ministry."--Katherine Hayes, associate professor of Sacred Scripture, Seminary of the Immaculate Conception
"The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture gives serious American Catholics a critical study tool they've lacked: a spiritually invigorated and intellectually keen verse-by-verse analysis of the biblical text from scholars who are thinking within the heart of the Church. All of this is achieved without getting bogged down in questions of purely academic interest. The commentaries are rich in textual insight and practical illustration, making them immensely helpful to homilists, teachers, and readers. This project is terrific; undoubtedly one of the most exciting works of today's freshly assertive American Catholicism."--Al Kresta, president and CEO, Ave Maria Radio; host of Kresta in the Afternoon
"Coinciding with the Bishops' Synod on 'The Word of God in the Life and Mission of the Church,' this great project of a seventeen-volume commentary on the New Testament starts with the volume on Saint Mark. This series represents a much-needed approach, based on good scholarship but not overloaded with it. The frequent references to the Catechism of the Catholic Church help us to read Holy Scripture with a vivid sense of the Living Tradition of the Church."--Christoph Cardinal Schoenborn, Archbishop of Vienna
"I welcome with great joy the launch of this new collection of commentaries on the Bible because the project corresponds perfectly to a pressing need in the Church. I am speaking about exegetical studies that are well grounded from a scholarly point of view but not overburdened with technical details, and at the same time related to the riches of ancient interpretation, nourishing for spiritual life, and useful for catechesis, preaching, evangelization, and other forms of pastoral ministry. Indeed, this is the kind of commentary for which the majority of readers have a great desire."--Albert Cardinal Vanhoye, SJ, emeritus professor of biblical exegesis, Pontifical Biblical Institute, former secretary of the Pontifical Biblical Commission
"After twenty years of teaching priests as well as teaching Catholic laypeople, seminarians, and deacons in formation, I can say with confidence that the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is a landmark achievement in theological interpretation of Scripture in and for the Church. Everything about it is inviting and edifying, from the format, photos, background notes, and cross-references (to Scripture and the catechism) to the rich exposition of the text, quotations from the Church's living tradition, and reflections for contemporary life. It is a wonderful gift to the Catholic Church and a model for the rest of us. Highly recommended for all!"--Michael J. Gorman, professor of Sacred Scripture and dean of the Ecumenical Institute of Theology, St. Mary's Seminary and University, Baltimore
"In preparing for the international Synod of Bishops on 'The Word of God in the Life and Mission of the Church,' Pope Benedict XVI reminded the Church that a prayerful study of the Scriptures is at the heart of the Church's renewal. The new Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture promises to directly serve that purpose. Drawing on sound biblical scholarship, the commentaries present the reader with the rich harvest of that study, reflecting on the message of the biblical text and engaging the life of faith from a Catholic perspective. Preachers, pastors, students of the Bible, and adults seeking mature spiritual nourishment will welcome this new series."--Donald Senior, CP, president, Catholic Theological Union
"When the Scripture is read in the liturgy, it is heard as a living voice. But when expounded in a commentary, it is too often read as a document from the past. This fine new series unites the ancient and the contemporary by offering insight into the biblical text--verse by verse--as well as spiritual application to the lives of Christians today. I particularly like the sidebars inserted into the text called 'Living Tradition' that feature memorable sayings from great Christian teachers or brief explanations of puzzling terms and ideas."--Robert Louis Wilken, William R. Kenan Jr. professor of the history of Christianity, University of Virginia

LOS ANGELES -- Ford wasn't the only automaker last week to tweak General Motors.
Shortly after GM announced it would not advertise during the 2013 Super Bowl telecast, Hyundai put out a statement saying it wouldn't miss the opportunity to advertise in next year's game.
"The Super Bowl is a perfect venue for a brand like Hyundai. We are extremely pleased to be an advertiser on the 2013 Super Bowl," Steve Shannon, Hyundai marketing boss and a former GM marketing executive, wrote in an e-mail.
Earlier in the week, after GM said it would stop buying ads on Facebook, Ford said it would continue to buy ads on the social network site.
Hyundai has been a major player in Super Bowl advertising for the past five years. Last year, Hyundai had commercials in the second and fourth quarters of the game, and a one-minute spot that ran in the slot before kickoff.
But the millions of eyeballs watching the biggest football game of the year isn't the only thing that Hyundai says it gets from its Super Bowl marketing effort. Thumbing his nose a little at GM's decision to pull $10 million worth of paid ads on Facebook, Shannon said the big game brings big social media opportunities, too.
"In addition to the fact that this is far and away the best watched television program in the U.S., the social media opportunities continue to grow every year and we expect even more impact from this aspect of our advertising on the Super Bowl next year."

SarahPAC's SSL certificate has expired!
Yesterday morning, I learned that the SSL certificate for sarahpacdonate.com would expire that afternoon:
This morning, the certificate has indeed expired:
What does SarahPAC's certificate provider say about this?
That last image was obtained by clicking on the Trustwave "Click to Validate" button at sarahpacdonate.com. To do that, you will have to override your browser's warning that sarahpacdonate.com hasn't a valid certificate. Not recommended! If your browser doesn't warn you, something may be wrong with your browser.
What's the takeaway? Without a certificate issued by a Certificate Authority (CA), there are these problems: 1) No CA verifies that SarahPAC operates sarahpacdonate.com; 2) No CA has records indicating that SarahPAC is a valid entity; 3) Users of sarahpacdonate.com cannot be sure that their credit card and identity information are secure.
There may not be a lot of readers of this blog who are SarahPAC donors. If you're not a donor, there is no need to worry -- it may even be good for a laugh. It certainly indicates that SarahPAC is disorganized.
Don't trust sarahpacdonate.com without a valid certificate. Wait! What am I saying? Don't trust it even if it renews its certificate, unless you want to pay for Palin family vacations! Hahaha.

Update: 27 October, 2011 ... sarahpacdonate.com appears to have renewed its certificate! What took them so long?

How will she ever afford the big Disney trip she has coming up? Oh, wait, no doubt the FL GOP is rolling in stolen tax dollars and will front the whole trip for the woman they think is a respected party leader. Sick.

But, but Sarah Palin isn't affiliated with SarahPac in anyway... Well, unless she want's to buy her own books, or if you wants some new shrink wrap for her deserted family vacation tour...or baawhaaaa!!!

Maybe it is on its way down? Maybe, finally, the grifting will come to an end. Or, maybe somebody finally filed a lawsuit!
I can only hope.

Piper Palin told a reporter that a bus tour -- paid for by SarahPAC -- was a vacation. LINK

Did sarahpac ever file its third quarter financial report that was due on 9/30 ?? If they/she didn't, where is the FEC ?? Why aren't they investigating ? And the IRS too !

Ack! Second try - sorry if this ends up a dupe -
I tried all last night to connect with sarahpac and all I got (from Australia) was an oddly written invalid page error msg. but even more odd (to me) was the fact that no one - on any of the 4palin sites - said a word. No discussion, nobody asking how they could donate - nothing.
So is this her way of jumkping into the 2012 race? Lose the pac - ditch Fox job then jump into the race?
You just know that is how the palinbots are going to interpret this - that she's getting ready to jump in. Canj't wait for them to work out she's simply incompetent -

It doesn't take that long to renew or obtain a new certificate. I see my tip turned into a blog post :) This only goes to show how disorganized Sarah and her party of minions really are. I suppose most of the idiots that donate to her will probably accept the broken certificate. How funny would it be if someone hijacked and re-directed that site...maybe in my youth but not now :P

Rode up on two chains in the road on Western Ave, near Pioneer Square, downtown Seattle. Is that a Dead Baby mechanical aftermath? Chain x 2 and busted? Who would leave chains behind, unless in a hurry or a litterer?
If indeed a chain break, where are the dude's balls; maybe the seagull got those?
BTW, that's not something you see everyday. Maybe a chain with the recalled SRAM Power Lock?

Harleybird stopped gacking. He was eating a good amount of canned ID mixed with my regular canned.
So, being a freaking know-it-all, I started decreasing the Reglan. He turned IMPOSSIBLE to get the pills into, so I stopped since he seemed to be okay. He was off it for a week. A few days ago he started gacking again.
I brought him to Vet today and he wasn't happy with me. We are starting from square one with Reglan, Pepcid and adding Sucralfate (from the human pharmacy).
Vet said after I STICK WITH THE PROGRAM he can determine if this is just a 9 year old dog with inflamed insides or he has to "scope him" to see if something more is going on in there.
Really, I feel like I failed my Harleybird.
Can you ask about getting the Reglan in injectable form and just give it sub-q?
PoodleMaMaKat wrote:FYI... Reglan (metoclopromide) comes in a liquid, also available at the people pharmacy. That may be easier to shoot down his throat in an oral syringe. But it may depend on what strength he's on. It also smells AMAZING!! Butterscotch I believe But I'm with ya on the injections... They are not for me!!

Ruffled Blue/White striped Sorbetto
Added Nov 10, 2012
by floralwhirl
Johannesburg, So...
Made a muslin before I made my Peach Spring Sorbetto, with left over striped fabric from another project. The resulting muslin was a little 'blah', so I decided to ruffle it up a little. Fabric has some body causing the ruffles to flounce out a bit. This is a fine fun design feature. I did however have to resort to stitching the fold down flat onto the ruffles to hold it all in place. Am pleased to have a wearable muslin.
Material Notes
Blue and white striped polyester. It has some body with hardly any draping qualities. Top was a bit stiff until it was washed and worn a few times. It still retains some of its stiffness.

Hey everyone. A friend of mine created a website a while back that is very basic and now when people visit his site, anti-virus says that a virus called HTML/twitscoll.b is on the website. This has happened twice now to him and I am wondering where this comes from and what does it do. The first time he got it I was able to delete it through his ftp and also somehow there was additional lines of code in his index file that were trying to redirect to a different site. I haven't looked at it this time yet as he didn't provide me with his ftp information yet but once he does I will get a better look. Basically what I am wondering is, would this be getting onto his site because of an error in his code or is it unrelated to that and possibly that his godaddy account was compromised and someone is making these changes that way? His site utilizes html/css/php/MySQL but his work is very basic and not complex. Any information or advice would be great. Whenever I get his ftp information I can also provide code snippets to help further determine the problem in needed. Thank you.
It should be a hack, and will need to review the files. One best way to start with is checking through http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/

Part of National Museums Liverpool
Also in this section…?
Please note that this exhibition has now closed
In 1975 Paul Trevor came to Liverpool to document inner city deprivation for the 'Survival Programmes' project. His remarkable photographs told a different story however. Their backdrop may be the dereliction of post-war Liverpool. But these images went beyond this bleak cityscape and got close to his real subject: families and children.
This exhibition of Paul's direct and honest street photography showed life as it was lived in a community defiant in the face of poverty, unemployment and the state of their surroundings. He depicted a place where the streets and wastelands became playgrounds, the family was a constant, and where children seem fun-loving and free.
Paul returned to the same Liverpool communities in the summer of 2010. After a lively reunion with local residents, one said:
"Paul, it's like you've never been away!"
"Paul, it's like you've never been away!"

Paul would also like to thank Jenni Smith, Steve Joyce and Tom Groves, the team who printed the show, for their superb collaboration.

BOSTON � One year after the first explosion there shattered her eardrum and her peace of mind, Lauren Vulcano of Northborough crossed the finish line Monday, claiming her first Marathon medal despite stress fractures in both feet.
"I�m so glad I made it," the 25-year-old graduate student exclaimed in the VIP tent, her mother and running mate Michele by her side. "I�ve never even done a 5K."
The Marathon was a first for both women, who crossed the finish line holding hands just after the six-hour mark.
"I didn�t know how far I could go," said Vulcano, who suffered stress fractures to both feet while training in January. After taking a walking boot off for the last month, she�ll now need to go back into it to fully heal.
Michele Vulcano convinced her daughter to run last fall, and the two formed friendships with members of Lauren�s "4.15 Strong" survivor team.
"We love each other," Vulcano said as she exchanged congratulatory hugs with other team members.
Vulcano estimates she and her boyfriend were less than 10 feet away from the first bomb that exploded last year. After three surgeries, she still has ringing and hearing loss in her right ear, where one of more than 70 ball bearings that struck her body landed.
"Enjoy every step," her best friend penned on her right wrist before the race. "Because I can," read her left.
Vulcano, smiling and pointing at her ailing feet, said she wouldn�t have been able to finish Monday without the help of the crowd � particularly near the finish line.
"I couldn�t believe how many people were still there. I couldn�t believe how strong our city was, waiting for everybody to finish," she said.
As she approached the spots where the bombs went off, she crossed herself and started to weep.
"I just started sobbing. I thought, �I can finally leave it at the finish line and go on with my life.�"
Vulcano knows finishing the race won�t heal her ear � which may require another surgery � or erase the painful memories from last year.
But, set to earn her dual license in school counseling and social work next month, Vulcano said she now steps into the future a stronger and more resilient person.
"I have a different appreciation for life than I used to," she said. "Every day really is a gift."

It's best to avoid floating into the rocks at 3rd. I did that too and lost a set of lines when they got tangled in the rocks. Getting in at low tide isn't fun, but it's much better to slog through mud than to get pounded into the rocks by the swell. It's just too easy to damage your equipment or yourself that way. The wind shadow at the lower launch doesn't matter because you would have had to self rescue at Alameda if you went downwind, so self rescuing into the lower launch means at least you maybe had some actual wind before you had to hit the beach.
I totally agree with Nick. I spent way too much time at Alameda with just enough wind to fly the kite but not enough to go upwind or learn much of anything except self rescue, over and over again. So go to Alameda, do some body dragging, learn to get up and ride, self rescue a few times when you end up downwind, and then hit 3rd Ave at low tide.
Also, for the Go Joe haters that might chime in - there's no substitute for being able to body drag to your board. You have to learn that skill right away. But the Go Joe allows you to locate it visually much easier and that alone saves huge amounts of time that you could be using more productively than dragging back and forth in a search pattern.

- "Ah, a knight. They strut around like roosters down here. Even the ones who have never seen an arrow coming their way."
- ―Eddard Stark on Hugh's lack of manners
Hugh, called Ser Hugh of the Vale, was a freshly made knight. He was killed by a splintered lance while jousting with Ser Gregor Clegane.
Hugh served as Lord Jon Arryn's squire for four years before Jon Arryn's death. After Arryn's death, Hugh was knighted for his loyal service by King Robert Baratheon. When Lady Lysa Arryn returned to the Eyrie with her son, Ser Hugh elected to remain in King's Landing in the King's service.
Season 1
Lord Eddard Stark sends Jory Cassel to quiz Ser Hugh about Jon Arryn's death. Ser Hugh refuses to talk to Jory since he isn't a knight. Ser Hugh takes part in the tournament to celebrate Eddard's arrival and is killed by a splintered lance during a joust with Ser Gregor Clegane.[1]
Lord Commander Barristan Selmy stands the knight's vigil for Ser Hugh overnight. Eddard ponders how Hugh could afford arms and armor so soon after being knighted, leading him to suspect that Hugh was involved in Jon Arryn's death. Varys later agrees that this is the most likely explanation, and that the Lannisters ordered him killed to prevent him talking (Ser Gregor is in the Lannister's service).[2]

|Lord Snow
|Cripples, Bastards, and Broken Things

* Only appears as a corpse.
- Petyr Baelish: "Do you know Ser Hugh of the Vale? Not surprising. Until recently he was only a squire – Jon Arryn's squire. He was knighted almost immediately after his master's untimely death."
- Eddard Stark: "Knighted for what?"
- — Eddard Stark's unanswered question.[src]
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Ser Hugh is a reasonably effective warrior but is newly-proud and slightly drunk on his achievement of becoming a knight.
Lord Stark met Ser Barristan at a cart transporting Ser Hugh's remains after the Silent Sisters had dressed him. Ser Barristan explains that he did stand vigil alone, but Ser Hugh apparently has a mother in the Vale and the remains are being sent to her. Ser Hugh's armor is new since he had it made especially for the tournament and has not been completely paid for, but Lord Stark will deal with the armorer himself and insists to the Silent Sister accompanying the cart that Ser Hugh's mother receive his armor since he knows it will mean something to her.
When Grand Maester Pycelle is being accused by Tyrion Lannister of fatally poisoning Jon Arryn, Pycelle denies it while accusing Ser Hugh of doing it and that Varys and Queen Cersei will concur with Pycelle about Ser Hugh's guilt.
Upon being knighted, Ser Hugh's sigil is a blue field bordered in crescent moons.
