MANATEE COUNTY -- An internal report released by the school district on Saturday reveals why Superintendent Rick Mills moved to fire five high-ranking officials involved in the misconduct investigation of a Manatee High assistant football coach.
The 181-page report points to inconsistencies in what school officials told Bradenton Police and school investigator Troy Pumphrey about allegations of misconduct against former assistant coach Rod Frazier.
The report also shows that some of the officials -- former assistant superintendent Bob Gagnon, former school investigator Debra Horne and former Manatee High assistant principals Gregg Faller and Matthew Kane -- have contradicted themselves since being charged with failure to report child abuse.
Bradenton Police conducted a four-month investigation that resulted in seven charges of battery against Frazier, who is alleged to have inappropriately touched Manatee High students and staff over a five-year period. Frazier, who has maintained his innocence, resigned in July.
Mills has moved to fire Gagnon, Horne, Faller, Kane and assistant superintendent Scott Martin on the grounds that they violated several school policies and codes of conduct by not notifying police of allegations concerning Frazier, and that in some cases, they were dishonest about what they knew. On Oct. 14, the School Board is to vote on the terminations.
Frazier, 35, was the subject of a one-day investigation involving allegations of misconduct in November 2012. He was placed on paid leave Nov. 15, and returned to work the next day to coach a football game.
School reports show that there were at least two reports concerning Frazier's behavior filed in the district before November, including an anonymous call made to former superintendent Tim McGonegal.
Former assistant superintendent Martin told Bradenton Police earlier this year that the Frazier investigation was closed in November after one day "for all practical purposes."
But the district internal report released Saturday shows that Martin told schools investigator Pumphrey that the inquiry remained open until January. On Jan. 9, a former Manatee High student wrote a letter to school officials alleging that Frazier had groped her and asked her for a nude photo.
Regardless of the status of the inquiry, Frazier returned to school Nov. 16.
Martin told Pumphrey that based on the one-day investigation, it was determined that Frazier did not pose a threat to staff or students.
Frazier, employed as a parent liaison at the district, returned to work for 44 days. According to court records, he allegedly groped a teacher in a break room during that time.
The report released Saturday also shows that the reason Frazier was allowed to return to work has been disputed.
Pumphrey interviewed 31 people. A guidance counselor and an office assistant say Horne told them that assistant superintendent Gagnon told her to wrap up the inquiry so Frazier could be on the football field Nov. 16.
Gagnon has denied making any comments about football in regard to the Frazier investigation.
When interviewed, Martin also said that Gagnon told him Frazier's presence would be missed on the field.
But Martin also told Pumphrey that he made the decision that Frazier should return to work Friday, Nov. 16 after the one-day internal investigation.
Other evidence shows that Martin did not inform former interim superintendent David Gayler that he had decided Frazier could return to work, and that Martin had advised former investigator Horne that she needn't interview students as part of the investigation before Frazier's return.
Martin also told Pumphrey he did not think that that interviewing Frazier was necessary to determine if the coach was a danger to students or staff before returning him to school.
Some alleged incidents -- in once case, Frazier is said to have shoved a water bottle between a female student's legs -- reportedly took place a long time ago, Martin told Pumphrey. Martin said that he'd been told Manatee High officials had dealt with the allegation. No victim had come forward.
"It didn't seem that there was any immediate threat to students or staff," Martin told Pumphrey, according to district investigative reports.
Horne interviewed several staff members, but was told by Martin to hold off on students because that "would only serve to stir the pot," Horne states in the internal report.
"At this point in the investigation, the evidence suggests that decisions were being made to protect the image of Rod Frazier and his importance to the football team as a coach," Pumphrey wrote after interviews with Martin and Gagnon.
"There is no evidence at this point to suggest a concern for known victims or possible victims yet to be identified."
The report includes other evidence that school officials had received reports about Frazier, but failed to look into concerns.
Martin and Horne told Pumphrey that Gagnon, who had once been principal of Manatee High, needed to speed up the investigation to get Frazier back on the football field. Gagnon has denied saying this. An office assistant told Pumphrey she heard Gagnon tell Horne to "get him (Frazier) back out on the field."
ccording to a taped interview between Frazier and Horne on Nov. 16, Horne said to Frazier, "Based upon what I've been able to do in the last day and a half, I do believe that the allegations that were brought forward are not going to be substantiated." She had not yet interviewed Frazier or any students.
eports say Horne told Pumphrey in an interview that she and Martin were aware that a student had been seen sitting on Frazier's lap alone in a classroom and had allegedly met the same student at night in a park before a November investigation.
"We did not feel that if the allegations were true, they were abuse," Horne said then. "If the allegations were true, were they inappropriate things for a gentleman to be doing, possibly; abuse no. A child sitting on your lap is not abuse. It's stupid."
here are no notes, recorded interviews or other applicable documents at the district's Office of Professional Standards to show that the Frazier investigation remained active after Nov. 16.
t least two reports of concerns regarding Frazier were made to Horne's Office of Professional Standards before November. One was an anonymous call to former superintendent Tim McGonegal, though it is unclear what the caller stated.
n Nov. 16, Horne interviewed Frazier and asked him about the water bottle incident, as well as allegations that he had a relationship with a student and let a student sit on his lap and feed him cake. Frazier denied the allegations.
"That is a bold-face lie," he said about the cake incident. A Manatee High teacher has stated repeatedly that she walked in on the incident.
Gagnon, Faller, Kane and Horne have a court date on Oct. 23. Frazier's next court date is Nov. 5.

KCK Back to School Fair needs financial help
Group hopes to raise money to buy school supplies for KCK kids
The Wyandotte County Back-To-School Fair will soon be handing out school supplies to students in need, but the program is short on funding.
The fair, which has always been held at Kansas City Kansas Community College, will also take place at Sumner Academy this year. Parents who bring their children and proof of residency can get enough supplies to prepare the children for school, if enough donations come in.
"Of course, the cost of everything is going up each year, and in order to provide school supplies and a backpack, we are looking at trying to raise around $50,000 to make that happen," said chair Arlana Coleman.
The committee is just halfway to its goal with less than three weeks to go.
In addition to supplies, the fair can help provide physicals for young athletes and shots for students who need to have immunizations.
At the Kansas City Kansas Community College site, the fair will also offer screenings for common health problems, such as diabetes.
To get the students ready for the classroom, the committee is looking for mostly monetary donations.
"When we buy in bulk, it's cheaper for everybody, and so we've placed an order and we're just waiting for the funds to come to cover that order, so we're counting on the community to come through for us," Coleman said.
The program hopes to ensure that about 5,000 students will be ready for the first day of school.
"It's amazing the number of children that come to school on the first day that don't have any school supplies," Coleman said. "The need is truly great."
Anyone wishing to donate can send money to the KCKCC Endowment, 7250 State Ave., Kansas City, Kan., 66112. Any checks should have BTSF written on the memo line.
KMBC 9 News is among the sponsors of this annual event.

Teamwork is necessary in home buying
Special to the Daily
Whether you are buying your first home or your 100th home you need to work with professionals. You will need professional real estate people, professional title insurance people and professional mortgage people, to name a few. Each and every one of these people has very specific jobs to do and remember that they work for you, not the other way.
As a mortgage professional I strongly suggest that you meet with me before you meet with anyone else. You need to meet with me or any qualified and licensed mortgage professional prior to a real estate agent.
The reason to me is simple. I am the one to sit down with you, the buyer, to determine how much of a home you can afford to buy. I am the one to sit down with you and go over your credit report to determine if your credit history will allow you to obtain a mortgage at an acceptable rate.
Why waste your time thinking that you can afford something that you cannot afford? Why waste your time looking at property for sale if your personal credit is to the point where you need to spend a month or two getting your report corrected? The answer is simple: you meet with your mortgage professional first so you know exactly what you can afford to buy.
The second person you meet with is a real estate agent. Like the mortgage professional you inform them how much you can afford and where you want to look for property. Also, make a list of your needs and your wants. On this list you need to be realistic in making this list. If your budget is only $150,000, you know that you are not going to find a new five-bedroom condo slopeside, so be realistic. But, if you need a garage to store your prized auto, make sure your real estate agent knows that fact right up front.
Now, on to the professionals you need to utilize after you have found that perfect fit of a home. Talk to your mortgage professional and your real estate agent on who they recommend. If your best friend is an insurance agent, by all means use them.
Now here is the point that you need to read very closely. All of these people are working on your behalf, or they should be working on your behalf. If you have a question, ask it. If you get an answer that you are not sure of, ask the question again, and again, until you are confident that you understand the answer. Once again, all of these people are working for you and your behalf. If you are unhappy with the treatment you are receiving, consider firing that person. If they are not doing their job make sure that they do not get paid for not doing their job.
Now, finally, all of the people involved in the process of helping you obtain your goal of buying a home need to work as a team. Your mortgage banker must be a full-time mortgage banker, your real estate agent must be a full-time real estate agent and your insurance agent must be a full-time insurance agent. If you break a leg on the mountain you surely do not look for a part-time surgeon, so use full-time experienced professionals for what might be the biggest purchase of your life.

Welcome to the Cloudy Nights Imaging/Sketching Contest!
Over the years, we've noticed we have some exceptional talent in our forums, and we've decided that we would like to show it off. Each month our readers will choose an overall winner, and that winning image or sketch will be displayed on the front page of the Cloudy Nights website until a new winner is chosen.
How to enter:
Please visit our forums and submit an image/sketch in the appropriate forum, each forum will have a "sticky" thread called "Imaging Contest Submissions".
Images may be submitted to the contest threads in the following forums:
Beginning Imaging
Film Astrophotography
DSLR and Digital Camera Astro Imaging and Processing
CCD Imaging and Processing
Solar System Imaging and Processing
Moderators are listed by the forum name, and additionally their name or handle appears in green. Please contact them if you have any questions.
Each month, images or sketches (as applicable to the forum) will be submitted in each forum for users to vote on. The winners from each forum's semi-final poll will be entered in a site wide poll for our users to determine which image or sketch is the best of the group.
See the individual forums and moderators for additional details and questions.
Contest rules and prize awards are subject to change without notice.
Contest Rules: (revised 10/2011)
1. Images submitted in a particular forum must reflect the focus of that particular forum.
2. In order to provide a level playing field and to encourage participation by novice imagers, entrants in the Beginning Imaging forum who win the semi-finals poll in the CN Imaging Contest a total of three (3) times - or who win in the finals regardless of the number of times they have won the semifinals - will have demonstrated sufficient proficiency at astrophotography to no longer be considered a "beginning imager". Such an imager will be considered to be a "graduate" of the Beginning Imaging Forum, and are encouraged to compete in the other imaging or sketching forums. The exception to this rule will be in the case of an entrant who wins the semi finals poll in Beginning Imaging as an uncontested entrant. An uncontested winner in the semi-finals will not have their win count toward their "graduation" as a beginning imager unless they also win the overall contest.
- Entries in the DSLR forum must be images captured with a Digital SLR or digital camera
- Entries in the CCD forum must have been captured with a dedicated astronomical CCD camera
- Entries in the Film Astrophotograpy forum must have been captured with a film camera
- Entries in the Solar System forum must be of objects contained within our solar system

- Entries in the Beginning Imaging can be of any astronomical subject as long as they are captured with a camera of some sort and do not violate any other rules.
3. Entrants may submit an image for consideration in only one forum participating in the CN Imaging Contest. Entrants submitting images in more than one forum must choose a single forum to enter in or else all submissions from the entrant will be disqualified at the time of the creation of the semi finals polls.
4. All entries must be captured within the same season as the contest. For example, if the subject was Orion Nebula, than any photo captured during this particular winter (or period that it was visible) would qualify for the contest.

6. Entries must conform in all respects with the site wide image posting requirements. Entries that do not meet this criteria will be disqualified at the time of the semi final poll creation. It is the contestant's responsibility to ensure compliance with these requirements - although a moderator or administrator may alert a contestant to a possible problem in this area they are not bound to do so.
7. There will be a separate sticky thread for Contest entries. Please do not post comments in the entries thread its just for these wonderful images you all will be submitting.
8. You must be the owner or co-owner and sole operator of the equipment used to create the image/sketch. Doesn't matter what it is. 20" RC, ETX70, 2" Tasco or an 8" TMB. No images from club owned equipment will be allowed. No pay by the hour rent-a-scope images will be allowed.

According to court officials: "A second weapons screen station will be set up on the eighth floor tomorrow between the elevators and Department 88. Cell phones, recording devices and cameras will not be permitted past the weapons screen or in Department 88. Reporters are urged to make other arrangements for their cell phones. Anyone who has a cell phone with them when they go through the weapons screen on the eighth floor must give it to the deputies before they will be allowed past. Deputies will then provide a claim slip, or receipt, to retrieve the phone later. Individuals who do not have business in the courtrooms on the eighth floor and do not have a seat in Department 88 will not be allowed to congregate in the hallway."

We're more than halfway through 2012, and many of the year's biggest releases have already arrived; but that doesn't mean things have slowed down at the multiplex. In fact, August offers up an exciting and eclectic mix of films, and our list of highly-anticipated movies this month is even longer than the one we did last month, which was dominated by big superhero releases.
In August, Jeremy Renner takes command in a new Bourne movie, while an Arnold Schwarzenegger sci-fi/action film gets remade with Colin Farrell in the lead. Add to that an Expendables sequel that offers up a killer cast (including Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, Chuck Norris, Dolph Lundgren and Jean-Claude Van Damme), and we're in for one hell of a month at the movies.
With that in mind, here's our list of the 10 movies we're looking forward to seeing in August 2012.
August 3rd: 'Total Recall'
In 1990, Arnold Schwarzenegger starred with Sharon Stone in the blockbuster action film Total Recall . The movie focused on a man who seeks to import false memories into his mind and inadvertently realizes that the life he's living is a complete lie. Now, the film has been remade with Colin Farrell starring alongside Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale.
From what we can tell, the remakes hews closer to the original source material than its predecessor and features a more serious tone. Additionally, as Rob Keyes' report from the set notes, the special effects and the technology look to be far more impressive in this version.
It's been twenty-two years since the original arrived, so many youngsters might not be familiar with it and that gives the remake a fighting chance. To take a look at what's in store for the film, make sure you check out its latest trailer.
August 10th: 'The Bourne Legacy'
After three Bourne films starring Matt Damon in the title role, Jeremy Renner takes over the reins of the franchise in The Bourne Legacy. Although his character- Aaron Cross- doesn't know Jason Bourne, the two characters are very similar. They were both involved in a secret government project that the CIA is eager to hide from the public at large.
Damon has served as the face of the franchise, so it will be interesting to see if Renner will live up to expectations and prolong the series. If he succeeds, and a fifth film is made, it's possible that Damon will join Renner in that new chapter.
If you're interested to see Renner try to pull off the main role, check out the film's trailer for a preview of the action.
August 10th: 'The Campaign'
Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis offer viewers a respite from politics as usual with their new comedy, The Campaign. The film focuses on a Congressional race that pits an arrogant incumbent (Ferrell) against a naive political newcomer (Galifianakis). Jay Roach, who previously directed the outrageous Austin Powers films and the television movies Recount and Game Change, could be the perfect person to helm a comedy that mixes outrageous gags with a political story.
Ferrell and Galifianakis both have solid comedic credentials but it's difficult to create a political comedy that appeals to a broad audience. Will this movie live up to its potential or will it just serve as another disappointing comedy with a solid cast like The Watch did last month? We'll have to wait to find out.
Click here to see the trailer to see if this political film is worthy of your vote.
August 17th: 'The Expendables 2'
In 2010, Sylvester Stallone starred with Jason Statham, Bruce Willis, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, and other tough guy actors in the throwback actioner The Expendables. This year, the team is back in The Expendables 2, which promises to feature more intense action and more stars. With Chuck Norris, Liam Hemsworth, and Jean-Claude Van Damme on board, the movie could be an even bigger hit than its predecessor.
At the film's Comic-Con panel, Stallone noted that this sequel surpasses the original in every way - a sentiment that star Terry Crews previously noted.
Truthfully? It's hard not to get excited based on the trailer alone.
August 17th: 'Paranorman'
The stop-motion animated film Paranorman tells the story of a young boy who can speak to the dead and is forced to save his town from a threatening curse. At the film's Comic-Con panel, writer Chris Butler noted that the feature is a "zombie movie for kids." Even though the film does feature a few scary elements, the directors said during their discussion that the PG film is suitable for kids over seven or eight years old.
The movie's voice cast includes talented youngsters like Anna Kendrick, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Kodi Smit-McPhee. And with the dearth of quality family films this summer, Paranorman could end up being a surprise hit.
You can check out the trailer here.
August 24th: 'Premium Rush'
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who last month played a major supporting role in The Dark Knight Rises (TDKR), returns to theaters in the new thriller Premium Rush. He plays a bike courier who is given a mysterious message that he has to transport across the city. Man of Steel Actor Michael Shannon co-stars as a crooked cop who is trying to prevent that message from being delivered.
The trailer promises plenty of action and thrills on bicycles, and Gordon-Levitt has proven adept at choosing quality roles (i.e., 50/50, Inception and TDKR). The concept, however, may not seem that exciting for some viewers, so the movie will likely have to prove itself early on in order to make a splash at the box office.
One of its greatest assets, however, is director/screenwriter David Koepp. Koepp is responsible for writing Mission: Impossible (19966), and B-movie thrillers like Stir of Echoes (1999), and Secret Window (2004), so this film could further cement his reputation in Hollywood...
August 24th: 'The Apparition'
Ashley Greene, who plays Alice Cullen in the Twilight series, stars in The Apparition, a new horror film about nightmares becoming a reality. The story focuses on Greene's character and her boyfriend struggling with their worst fears coming true after a college experiment goes wrong. Tom Felton, who previously starred in the Harry Potter series and The Rise of the Planet of the Apes, co-stars as an expert seeking to prevent the fears from destroying all of their lives.
The movie's trailer holds promise and Felton's short resume shows that he knows how to choose quality projects. The film's PG-13 rating is surprising, given the subject matter, but the film could prove to be worthwhile if it conjures up the scares and thrills that have so often been missing from the theater this year.
August 24th: 'Hit and Run'
In Hit and Run, real-life lovebirds Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell star as a couple on the run after Shepard's criminal past catches up with them. Shepard, who wrote the screenplay, also co-directed the comedy with previous collaborator David Palmer.
The film, which promises viewers a blend of action and comed,y features a strong supporting cast. Bradley Cooper (who is barely recognizable) plays Shepard's former accomplice who recently served time in jail and is looking for Shepard to pay him back for the... ahem, 'pain and suffering' he endured behind bars. Additionally, Tom Arnold, Beau Bridges and Kristin Chenoweth play smaller roles in the movie.
If Hit and Run sounds intriguing, check out the film's trailers to see if the new comedy is worth running to the theaters to see.
August 31st: 'Lawless'
Based on the book The Wettest County in the World, the new movie Lawless features an exciting cast of new and young actors. Guy Pearce, Shia LaBeouf, and Jessica Chastain star in the film alongside Gary Oldman and Tom Hardy, who were last seen together in The Dark Knight Rises.
The violent film - which is based on a true story - focuses on three troubled brothers who are involved in the alcohol bootlegging business in the early 1900s. The trailer definitely looks promising and the all-star cast could make this one of the most intriguing movies of the year.
Also, Lawless will be John Hillcoat's first feature since The Road (2009), so this movie has some serious talent behind the scenes that could make it one to remember.
August 31st: 'The Possession'
In The Possession, Jeffrey Dean Morgan stars as a father whose daughter becomes possessed after a mysterious box comes into the family's hands. Morgan stars in the horror flick alongside Kyra Sedgwick and Madison Davenport.
Although the movie hasn't received much publicity, it has potential as a psychological thriller - and with producer Sam Raimi behind the scenes, the movie could be better than expected. Will the film exceed expectations and show horror film fans a story that they've been missing?
Decide for yourself by checking out the trailer here.
July might have been a huge month at the box office, but August promises to be a big one as well. Two franchises could prove their longevity this month, while one film could show Hollywood if the public's appetite for remakes is still alive and well.

Post subject:
Lance Armstrong's contention is that he is not conceding that he doped, but that he has withdrawn from a process that will not give him a fair hearing. His case is that he never failed a drug test, the USADA is retroactively changes its rules so that it can go back and retest samples up to 14 years old (instead of the current 8 years), it is using coerced testimony from known cheaters and rivals, and it is using an abitration process that is biased. LA Times business writer Michael Hiltzik lays out this position pretty well in the following article:
Washington Post sports writer Tracee Hamilton also questions the USADA position in this article:
I am not a fan of Armstrong, or of any kind of racing, but do believe in due process. I am especially concerned about arbitration, which is included in so many contracts these days. I do not see that arbitration, as practiced in the U.S., sufficiently guarantees the neutrality and competence of arbitrators. I'd rater put myself in the hands of a jury of my peers than those of an arbitrator. I find the court system's support of arbitration to be troubling, given that most arbitrators are ex-judges who pick up some nice retirement income.
I'm interested in what GT and Dan Weiss make of the above.

Pointster. (I'm having problems logging in, and being timed out- will try and fit in.)
I am not a lawyer so must tread carefully. PLEASE check into the CLINIC forum on CYCLINGNEWS.COM There are over 10,000 contributions on Armstrong and all that's been going on, from everyone from ex pro cyclists to lawyers to those really in the know about what goes on behind the scenes.
Very briefly; 1) U.C.I. ( Union Cyclist International based in Switzerland) runs the pro racing teams and their testing.
2) The UCI is allegedly accuysed (USADA and others) of being corrupt.
3) They are allegedly 'in bed' with Armstrong and his business interests, and have received massive financial contributions from Armstrong.
4) They have openly been accused of giving Armstrong PRIOR warning of doping tests on him, and of ignoring the laid down proceedure for those tests. (Giving him time and opportunity to take masking measures to avoid testing positive.)
5) The UCI are also allegedly accused of 'burrying' and dismissing two occasions on which Armstrong DID test positive, despite all the precautions. (Independant labs test and do not know who they are testing.. only the UCI knows which samples are which, so they alone are able to say.)
6)The most drug infested period of pro cycling began in the 90's with overdosing of E.P.O. Armstrong is allegedly accused of driving the whole 'arms race' of that period, by his drug fuelled dominance.

The legal issues;
1) USADA issued charges against Armstrong. (Doping over the course of his career, dope distribution to others, incitement to others to dope, and working with doping doctors...also charged by USADA.)
2( UCI immediately waded in demanding that THEY deal with the issue.
3) USADA said (in effect) no way, since they consider UCI to be part of the problem!
4) Armstrong filed a court case to block USADA durisdiction. (He wanted UCI to deal with things, and exonerate him.)
5) Judge Sparks dismissed Armstrongs case and awarded costs to USADA. He made clear that, provided USADA followed correct laid down protocols it was no business of the courts to decide the matter.
6) An unholy row erupted during which USADA gained the right to issue its charges, and UCI had to back down and allow them to.
7) USADA gave Armstrong a deadline to either accept arbitration or be stripped of his titles. (The arbitors would be three. One would be chosen by USADA, one by Armstrong, and the third by the other two arbitors. There was no question of unfairness.)
8)If ARmstrong accepted arbitration he would be faced by over 10 witnesses to his doping, all of whom had given sworn statements to that effect. There was NO WAY that he could have simply dismissed them all as liers, vindictive or jealous!
9) Knowing what he would have been up against, he threw in the towel ONE HOUR before the deadline, and issued his usual nonsense of witch hunts, lying, and playing the P.R. stuff for all he was worth.
HE KNEW, the game was up!

To make it obvious. Earlier statement by USADA.
"The UCI's public statements, prior conduct, and myriad conflicts of interest foreclose any results management for it. The USPS (United States Postal Service... Armstrongs team) doping conspiracy was going on under the watch of the UCI, and the participants in the conspiracy who cheated sport with dangerous performance enhancing drugs to win have a strong incentive to cover up what transpired."
Can it be put any more plainly?

I don't often agree with Sailing Joe, but in this instance he is not so blind as some might think!
Actually, Gurgletrousers makes the best case I have seen so far regarding this matter. Now, there's other issues that "illegal doping" controversies don't often address i.e. the health issues. These drugs have been deemed dangerous to the health of the people taking them. In fact the East Germans before unification cranked out very impressive medal counts in the Olympics due to their rampant use of performance enhancing drugs. Where are these atheletes today? Are they alive? Are they living in a freakish state in some state hospital? Lyle Alzedo was one of the few who attributed his demise to steroids that drew media attention. "I started taking anabolic steroids in 1969 and never stopped. It was addicting, mentally addicting. Now I'm sick, and I'm scared. Ninety percent of the athletes I know are on the stuff. We're not born to be 300 lb (140 kg) or jump 30 ft (9.1 m). But all the time I was taking steroids, I knew they were making me play better. I became very violent on the field and off it. I did things only crazy people do. Once a guy sideswiped my car and I beat the hell out of him. Now look at me. My hair's gone, I wobble when I walk and have to hold on to someone for support, and I have trouble remembering things. My last wish? That no one else ever dies this way." All public attention seems to go to the competitions. There is little follow up regarding the victors and their lives after the competitions. Lastly, how about the option of allowing all kinds of doping in all competitions and letting the individual athlete make the choice. The guys now in the spotlight of cycling are middle aged and really past their competitive lives. Let's see how they handle the rest of their lives and for that matter how long they will live. I'm twenty years older than they are and probably will see many of them die in my lifetime.

I'm not interested sufficiently to study the issue, but I'm getting the sneaky suspicion that he has been gaming the system by staying one step ahead of the detection technology all these years, thus violating the rules without getting caught. If that's a fair interpretation, he's not a fair contender. If this is nothing but baseless character assassination, many politicians and I can empathize with him and pray that his false accusers ride off a cliff in their next road trip.

GT, my main problems with the USADA case involve their reliance on evidence that goes back 14 years (beyond their own 8 year limit), the reliability of their witnesses, and the neutrality of the arbitrators.
First, I have problems with using old samples: how were they stored, chain of custody, scientific validity of testing methods, competence and neutrality of testers, etc.
As to reliability of witness: USDA has tremendous power to coerce testimony, and there are professional and personal rilvalries involved. I have not read of any recordings, pictures , e-mails, etc. that clearly back up their testimony. No "smoking gun".
The most troubling issue to me is that of the neutrality of the arbitrators. While the athlete gets to chose one of the arbitrators, the arbitrators they get to chose from are dependent on getting work from the USADA. Their fees are paid by the USADA. They are also interpreting USADA rules, and one of the parties in the case is the rule maker and enforcer.
Finally, in most doping cases, witnessess and testimony are in support of the positive results of testing. In this case, the witnesses and testimony are contrary to negative test results.
Armstrong's defence woulld have been very expensive and time consuming, and would have taken place in a process in which athletes have prevailed in only a very small percentage of cases. I can see why he would chose not to participate.

Pointster....George Hincapie and Levi Leipheimer were about to testify, not Floyd Landis, and Tyler Hamilton. George , and Levi are two of Lance's best friends and whose careers were launched by Lance. No Hincapie clothing without Lance, no Grand Fondo for Levi without Lance. Levi was given the option to sit for six months because of his association with the same doctors as Lance, or chirp, he chose to chirp. Because of this , he has to relinquish his assocaition with the Grand Fondo on Sept 29th, an event he launched in Santa Rosa which attracts 6000 cyclists, myself included. The gig was up, and that is that. I fully expect one day Lance will come clean....

If the venture, called WindFiber, stays on course, ECC expects to turn out high volume in less space than is typical and with fewer employees than would normally be required, all by using the company's experience in related composite manufacturing. Its current facility in Wisconsin Rapids builds complex composite structures and vessels for the petrochemical, mining, paper and other industries. A plant of the size planned would normally turn out 1000 to 1100 blades a year, says ECC's Sam Fairchild. "Ours will produce 1500."
Fairchild, a former CEO at wind farm services company Broadwind Energy, says the key to ECC's plan includes a new approach to blade making. It begins with the standard vacuum fibreglass deposition process, but Fairchild says proprietary methods result in more efficiency by reducing labour intensive rework to rectify imperfections. "Because of the way that blades would flow through the plant, it substantially increases the sales per square foot," Fairchild says. "In our other areas of composite fabrication we experience the same difference and it works extremely well. We're actually quite confident in our ability to have a much higher throughput out of our plant."
Although no WindFiber blades have yet been attached to a wind turbine, the company's prototypes are undergoing independent testing. "Our prototypes are in pretty good shape and testing protocol should be completed by fall," Fairchild says. "Hopefully our blades will be in production exactly when everyone projects this market to return in a very robust way."
Fairchild is equally confident in ECC's ability to secure enough credit to get the plant built, along with a $625,000 loan for new equipment. Talks are also ongoing with a local college to establish a training program.
ECC plans to sell blades throughout the US. Its facility will allow blades to be loaded directly onto railcars and the Mississippi River is not far away for barge transport in addition to trucking. The company already provides field service crews nationwide for wind energy composites maintenance, repair and overhaul. Fairchild says WindFiber will ultimately be expanded to roll out a variety of other services aimed at the wind sector.
A note of caution comes from Matthew Kaplan of consultancy Emerging Energy Research. "ECC's plans are quite aggressive given that several [wind turbine] manufacturers are increasingly looking to produce blades in house, while many third party suppliers have been aggressively ramping up their own market presence," he says.

The States & Regions Alliance, which is a forerunner to the Under2 Coalition, was created in 2005 with the signing of the Montreal Declaration of Federated States & Regions.
See our States & Regions infographic for 4 critical reasons why states and regions are driving a global clean revolution.
Since the founding of the States & Regions Alliance in 2005, it has continuously affirmed its leadership through a series of ambitious commitments to both domestic and international actions to combat climate change:
The Governments of Baden-Württemberg and California, led the creation of the Under2MOU, an agreement to commit to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions between 80 and 95% below 1990 levels by 2050, or limit per capita emissions to less than 2 metric tons.
The Compact of States and Regions, the first ever single, global account of GHG reduction targets made by state and regional governments was announced at the UN Climate Summit in New York.
States and Regions Alliance members signed the Clean Revolution Statement during the Rio+20 Conference in Rio de Janeiro with clear joint commitments on energy efficiency, renewable energy and sustainable transport based on their earlier and broader Cancun Statement.
At the World Summit of States and Regions over 50 sub-national government leaders from around the world convened and confirmed their overall commitment to sustainable development and the Green Economy in the Declaration of Federated States and Regions of Rio de Janeiro.
States and Regions brought to COP 17 in Durban an overview of some of their key climate achievements, providing concrete examples and inspiration for the impact of sub-national action and reconfirming their dedication to continuously increasing their ambition.
At the European Conference of Regions on Climate Action in October 2011 , European States and Regions reconfirmed their commitment to climate action and called for the adoption of ambitious emission reduction targets at European and international levels in the Lyon Declaration that was handed over to global decision makers at the COP 17 in Durban.
Aiming to promote ambitious climate targets also at the European level, the governments of European Alliance members signed a call for 30% EU GHG emissions reduction target to support the 30% call by 74 major corporations.
At the third Climate Leaders Summit hosted by The Climate Group in Cancun, the sub-national governments in attendance committed to continue to develop low-carbon policies and to regularly report on their progress in the Cancun Statement of Federal States & Regional Governments on Low Carbon & Climate Resilient Development and the accompanying Cancun Sectoral Framework.
At the high level conference organised on the side of to the UNFCCC negotiating session in Bonn, Germany, co-hosted by the government of North-Rhine Westphalia and The Climate Group, the States and Regions called for bold action to progress the UN negotiations, highlighted the core role of sub-national governments in global climate action as well as confirmed their own commitments to climate action and to reporting back on their progress at COP 16 in Cancun, Mexico.
At a conference co-organised by the government of Ile-de-France and The Climate Group in Paris, the Federated States and Regional Governments and their respective networks gathered confirmed their support for the Copenhagen Accord and their own commitments made in the Copenhagen Statement as well as called for strong climate initiatives at the European level.
At the second Climate Leaders Summit hosted by The Climate Group at COP 15 in Copenhagen, 60 Leaders, Ministers, State Secretaries and regional leaders committed to take practical actions to expand low carbon technologies and collaborate in addressing climate challenges, called for ambitious GHG reduction targets to meet the 2 degree target and an international climate change agreement, as well as recognized the important leadership role of sub-national governments in meeting the Climate Conventions' goals. With the publication of "The Real Deal", sub-national governments reported back on their achievements made since the 2008 Poznan Statement of Action
On the initiative of the government of South Australia, leaders also committed to jointly planting a billion trees by 2015.
During the second Climate Leaders Summit in Poznan, the signatories of the Montreal Declaration reported on their progress and agreed a new "action statement" presented to UNFCCC Executive Secretary Yvo de Boer, in which they committed to setting targets for renewable energy and energy efficiency to accelerate low carbon policies prior to the climate change meeting in Copenhagen.
Realizing the potential of sub-national levels in driving the Clean Revolution, The Climate Group teamed up with the States of Quebec and Manitoba in 2005 to hold the first Climate Leaders Summit, resulting in the Montreal Declaration of Federated States and Regions signed by sub-national governments from around the world committing to setting targets and implementing climate action in their own jurisdictions. This document continues to be signed by all members and affiliates of the States & Regions Alliance as the founding basis of its work.

For Release in North America and South America: May 2013
Release Number: 221PR13
The new Cat® M318D MH Waste Handler is a wheel excavator designed specifically for use in work areas with limited space, whether overhead or adjacent to the machine, whether indoors or outdoors. This new configuration, which meets with accepted industry criteria to ensure safe operation and high production when working in close quarters, incorporates significant undercarriage and boom modifications, while retaining the proven features of its conventional M318D MH counterpart: fuel-efficient Cat C6.6 ACERT™ engine, load-sensing hydraulics; dedicated swing pump; heavy-duty axles; stabilizer configurations; and spacious cab with optional joystick steering.
The M318D MH Waste Handler features a purpose-built undercarriage that preserves the rugged strength of the conventional M318D MH undercarriage, but adapts the structure to the machine's specialized application. The heavy-duty swing-bearing tower is now centered on the undercarriage, placing it equidistant from axles and stabilizers for symmetry and optimum balance, whether working over the front or rear. In addition, the tower is larger to accommodate the hydraulic cab-riser swing bearing. The new compact undercarriage is compatible with all sticks and booms available, including MH, standard and one-piece booms.
A new boom for the M318D MH Waste Handler is now available to fit the machine to its tasks. The new boom has a shorter pin-to-pin length of 5.35 meters (17.55 ft.), compared with the conventional M318D MH's dimension of 6.4 meters (21.00 ft.). This compact material-handling boom, designed for use either with the 4 200-millimeter (13.78-ft.) stick or the 4 900 mm (16.1 ft) drop nose stick, features a welded, box-section design with thick, multi-plate fabrications in high stress areas for superior durability.
These modifications ensure that the new M318D MH Waste Handler meets all dimensional requirements and allows the new configuration to maintain a competitive edge in reach, height and lifting capacity. The M318D MH Waste Handler also delivers more working power than its competitors, having a net engine-power rating of 124 kW (168 PS), main hydraulic pressure (implement circuit) of 350 bar (5,076 psi), and a rated hydraulic flow of 290 L/min (77gpm) for the implement and 112 L/min (29 gpm) for the swing.
In addition to features that fit the M318D MH Waste Handler to work in confined areas, an optional Waste Handling package specifically equips the machine to work efficiently in waste transfer stations or other dusty applications.
The Waste Handling option features an automatic, hydraulically driven fan that cleans debris from the radiator by periodically reversing airflow after a specified interval (from 2 to 60 minutes, set manually at the monitor). A dense wire-mesh hood complements the automatic fan by facilitating optimum cooling and reducing radiator clogging, and a new seal has been added around the engine hood. For added engine protection, a pre-cleaner separates and ejects debris from engine intake air before the air reaches the machine's primary air cleaner.
For optimum efficiency and low-cost operation, the M318D MH Waste Handler's C6.6 engine is electronically controlled to maintain consistent net power in all operating situations. Electronic control, coupled with the engine's common-rail fuel system, helps reduce fuel consumption, whether the machine is working or traveling. Added fuel savings result from the reversible cooling fan, which is also an electronically controlled, on-demand type that automatically adjusts its speed based on coolant and hydraulic-oil temperature.
For increased durability, the cab uses heavy steel tubing around its exterior bottom perimeter for resistance to fatigue and vibration. This design also allows a falling-objects guard to be bolted directly to the frame, but the guard can be raised easily for convenient windshield cleaning. A rearview camera is standard and displays images on the in-cab monitor.
As with all Cat Wheeled Material Handlers, the M318D MH Waste Handler can be equipped with a quick coupler and a range of specialized work tools. The new configuration's overall design retains ground-level access to routine maintenance points, including remote grease points.

| 8.4°C Belfast
Southampton have confirmed the signing of highly-rated defender Nathaniel Clyne from Crystal Palace.
The 21-year-old England Under-21 international has signed a four-year deal with the Premier League newcomers.
"I'm overwhelmed, really," Clyne told the club's official website.
"As soon as I heard that Southampton were in for me, I was happy and I knew that this was the place where I could try to improve my football, further my career and get a chance to play in the Barclays Premier League."
Clyne was out of contract at Selhurst Park, but he will still command a free because of his age. The two clubs are still in discussions over compensation and an independent tribunal will decide the fee if an agreement can not be reached.
Speaking after joining up with his new team-mates at their training camp in Evian-les-Bains, he added: "It's a club with a lot of ambition - the gaffer told me that they would want to be pushing for European football.
"We've got good players here - a young bunch of good, talented players who are destined for the top, so I don't see why we can't do it."
Saints boss Nigel Adkins said: "We're delighted that we can finally announce that we've brought Nathaniel Clyne into the group to help us kick onto the next level. There's a lot of work going on behind the scenes all summer and, with (head of recruitment] Paul Mitchell and (chairman) Nicola Cortese, we work very hard behind the scenes to make things happen.
"For the last three years Nathaniel has been a very attack-minded full-back who bombs on, he's got pace and he's a good one-on-one defender. He got into the Championship team of the year last year, and for such a young age he has had a lot of first-team football in the Championship. All being well, we can push him onto the next level now."
Clyne played 123 league games for Palace, scoring once, and has won two caps for England Under-21s.

Review: `Two Graves' is exceptional thriller
"Two Graves" (Grand Central), by Preston & Child
The names Preston & Child on the cover of a book promise a unique reading experience unlike any other, and "Two Graves" delivers the high thrills one expects from the two masters.
A good thriller forces the reader to finish the book in one sitting. An exceptional thriller does that plus forces the reader to slow down to savor every word. With "Two Graves," authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child have delivered another exceptional book.
The novel is the conclusion of a trilogy that started with "Fever Dream" and last year's "Cold Vengeance," though one could easily pick up this book and not feel lost. The protagonist, FBI Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast, has none of the usual qualities that make a hero. He's addicted to drugs, socially inept and has the appearance of a living ghost. But he has the most brilliant mind imaginable, and his keen insight and ability to think outside the box are desperately needed to solve a bizarre string of murders occurring in New York City hotels. He's just learned that his wife, long presumed dead, is alive. The hunt for answers to the murders and what happened to his wife take Pendergast to the edge of his sanity - and career.
The gothic atmosphere that oozes from the pages of "Two Graves" will envelop the reader in a totally unique experience. Pendergast is a modern-day Sherlock Holmes, quirks and all, who would live more comfortably in the past but must suffer through the inconveniences that living in the 21st century brings. The mystery tantalizes, and the shocks throughout the narrative are like bolts of lightning.
Fans will love the conclusion to the trilogy, and newcomers will seek out the authors' earlier titles.

Tudor warship, artifacts to open as new UK museum
The remains of a Tudor warship that sank more than 400 years ago will be displayed along with thousands of its artifacts for the first time at a new British museum.
Museum officials and historians say the 27 million-pound ($41 million) museum not only allows visitors to view the wreck of the Mary Rose, Henry VIII's flagship, but also provides a snapshot of Tudor life onboard the vessel.
The Mary Rose Museum, located at the historic dockyards in the southern English city of Portsmouth - near the exact spot where the 16th-century vessel was built - opens to visitors Friday.
The Mary Rose led the English fleet in battle against France from 1512, but sank after three decades in service during the Battle of The Solent on July 19, 1545. The ship remained on the seabed off the south coast of England and was not discovered until 1971, when divers noticed its exposed timbers.
After further investigations and numerous dives - including one by Prince Charles - the hull section of the ship was finally lifted to the surface in 1982, an event that was broadcast on television to millions of viewers around the world at the time.
The museum is built like a ship, housing both the wooden hull and galleries displaying many of the 19,000 artifacts collected from the wreck, from leather boots to cannons to a skeleton of the ship's dog, Hatch.
"This isn't just about a ship, it's about life in Tudor times," said John Lippiett, chief executive of the Mary Rose Trust. "It is a memorial to the 500 who lost their lives on the Mary Rose."
Historian and television presenter David Starkey went further, describing the Mary Rose as an "English Pompeii, preserved by water, not fire."
Experts say the ship is the earliest large warship armed with guns that has survived reasonably intact, and has richer archaeological value than the Vasa in Stockholm, which sank in 1628 as a new and almost empty ship.
"Its significance is as the earliest surviving warship firing broadside armament, and for the direct evidence it gives on shipbuilding at the time -- when there are no detailed written records or plans," said Pieter van der Merwe, general editor at the Royal Museums Greenwich.
"It is literally a time capsule of Tudor England with evidence of health and diet in the bones of its crew, medicine, personal possessions and weaponry," he added.
The recovered section of the wooden hull, measuring about 35 meters (115 feet) long and 11 meters (36 feet) tall, will be kept in an airtight chamber with viewing windows as officials finish the final stages of conserving the wreck. Millions of liters of water and wax chemicals have been sprayed on the wreck to preserve it since it was raised to the surface, and the museum expects to remove its internal walls surrounding the hull in 2017 when it is fully dry.
The new museum, located next to Lord Nelson's flagship, the HMS Victory, replaces a smaller museum which only housed some of the artifacts, not the wreck.

Price finds opportunity to get Lutz into lineup
NEW YORK -- Cracking the Reds' starting lineup has been a challenge for first baseman/outfielder Donald Lutz. It's also been difficult for manager Bryan Price to find a way to write Lutz's name on the card.
With Cincinnati playing the Yankees in an American League park, Lutz was the designated hitter on Saturday. It was his first start in the big leagues since June 9. He was recalled from Triple-A Louisville on July 11.
"For me, it's a little bit more challenging being in this environment -- going into [Friday] a game and a half out of first and today 2 1/2 out, and ask the guys to come up from Triple-A and take on a significant role when we have players that are a bit more established here right now," Price said on Saturday. "[But] these kids have no value to us if they can't blend in here periodically and give us some productive at-bats. If I go too long without playing them, they lose any ability to compete in this environment."
Price has primarily started backup catcher Brayan Pena at first base since Joey Votto went on the disabled list. Third baseman Todd Frazier and right fielder Jay Bruce have also started games there. In the outfield, Chris Heisey has been getting more playing time.
"A lot of it is we have some guys here who spent some time on the bench as role players that are getting the opportunity to play and have been pretty productive," Price said. "Especially, we've seen Heisey and [Ramon] Santiago do some really nice things for us offensively and defensively."
Lutz, who was batting .227 in 32 games at Louisville following a promotion from Double-A Pensacola, was also in the big leagues from May 23-June 9 and made four starts at first base. Over his last 10 games at Louisville, he was starting to find a groove as he batted .297 (11-for-37) with two home runs and 12 RBIs.
In between chances to play, Lutz has done his best to stay ready. At Great American Ball Park, he often makes use of the pitching machine in the batting cage. "Obviously, there is nothing really better than getting at-bats," Lutz said. "You go in the cage. You have people throwing to you. You do your routine."
Lutz feels like he's become more comfortable with coming off the bench to pinch-hit.
"I feel like it's easier now the more and more you experience it," Lutz said. "I talk to the older guys on how to handle yourself and prepare for an at-bat. It's much easier than last year. Last year was the first time I was doing it. You take advantage of the chances when you get them."

.... and you may well have noticed from the absence of any new posts ...that I have moved on to something new and exciting.
This has been fun while it lasted but it is time to move on.
My partner and I have a mutual love for "vintage" and rummaging through the myriad of stalls and antique markets for that something special. We combined that with both our love to "create" and have struck a single cord: we have decided to take a leap and start our own home grown: "cottage industry" by recycling and repurposing retro furniture and accessories .
The upcycle vibe is strong at the moment and we want a piece of the pie.
Each piece is unique: so far we have sourced 50s furniture and have added an industrial meets modern vintage twist to each creation.
We also source curios and I work on small porcelain and ceramic pieces giving them a modern twist and a new purpose.
So...enough blah blah blah...

Until then my friends...thank you for following me and supporting my musings.

Sidewalks, street crossings, and other elements in the public right-of-way can pose challenges to accessibility. The Board's ADA and ABA Accessibility Guidelines focus mainly on facilities on sites. While they address certain features common to public sidewalks, such as curb ramps, further guidance is necessary to address conditions and constraints unique to public rights-of-way.
The Board is developing new guidelines for public rights-of-way that will address various issues, including access for blind pedestrians at street crossings, wheelchair access to on-street parking, and various constraints posed by space limitations, roadway design practices, slope, and terrain. The new guidelines will cover pedestrian access to sidewalks and streets, including crosswalks, curb ramps, street furnishings, pedestrian signals, parking, and other components of public rights-of-way. The Board's aim in developing these guidelines is to ensure that access for persons with disabilities is provided wherever a pedestrian way is newly built or altered, and that the same degree of convenience, connection, and safety afforded the public generally is available to pedestrians with disabilities. Once these guidelines are adopted by the Department of Justice, they will become enforceable standards under title II of the ADA.

I just want to point out how outdated the headline "Celebrities and their crazy baby names" is. Yes, okay, so one guy named his kid Fifi Trixibelle and nobody will ever forget Bronx Mowgli. But there are a hell of a lot of celebrity kids named Ava and Max and Charlotte, so I feel like we can calm down a bit.
As such, Lincoln is, yeah, totally on the unusual side, but not NEARLY the offensive affront people are making it out to be. So it's a "boy's" name – a popular one, at that – but there wasn't nearly this level of outcry when baby Maxwell Drew was born. And, as American blogs have pointed out, in the presidential-names trend, with Reagan and Madison and Carter right up front, how is Lincoln so crazy?
There are three reasons this is making people so nuts. First of all, because the way these two have been talking about the baby in the press and the tweeting and whatnot, people thought Dax and Kristen were "like them" and that they would have a sweet little girl named Olivia. Isn't it annoying when your chosen celebrities don't do exactly what you would like to make you feel like them? None of you liked the name Suri when it was announced either, by the way, and now you blithely accept that it's synonymous with a well-dressed six-year-old with a shadowy parental past.
Second, the unending drum of being a "BOYS NAME" has been beaten all over the place. I …still don't get this. What do people think will happen if a boy's name is used? That people will get confused? That the child might not be the girl it's supposed to be? Or that it was a one-size name that was supposed to be applied to whatever child came out? Again, I ask, where is this concern over Maxwell? For that matter, where is this concern over names like "Jaden" given with incorrect impunity to both boys and girls?
The third reason people are losing their minds is because the rumour has sprung up that Dax Shepard loves his Lincoln so much he named his daughter after it. There are interviews from the Hit And Run press junket that support this. If it were true, I would roll my eyes, I'm not going to pretend. But then again, nobody has actually said this is the case except for the press. Nobody has actually said "Yep, we sure did name our daughter after a vehicle". And let's be honest. Obviously if they chose Lincoln instead of, say, Lily, it means something significant for them. It's not like they just chose the name of the first thing they saw.
Is it my favourite name? It is not. Lincoln Bell actually sounds quite lovely, if it were said all at once all the time. "Link" is going to be the nickname, I bet, and it will sound quite reasonably cute on the talk show circuit. Lincoln Shepard is always going to sound a little bit like a law firm, but maybe that's by design. I don't love the name, but I don't hate it, either. I also think the reasons for hating it are a little bit boring. Can we get a little creative?

Known for creating ruckus in the Bigg Boss 6 house, Imam Siddique on Thursday said he is honest and sincere and reacts when angry.
An image consultant in real life, Imam's outrageous behaviour forced Bigg Boss to evict him unceremoniously, but he later re-entered the show, but not much improvement has been noticed in his manners.
Imam, who destroyed things in the house and also threatened to strip, said: "I think I am an honest, sincere and humble person.... But yes, like everyone, I also have issues and react spontaneously when I am angry. I am as normal as anyone here."
He was speaking at a press interaction held inside the Bigg Boss house on Thursday in Lonavala. Quite true to its tagline alag che (it's different), the producers allowed the inmates of the sixth season to interact with media during the show. It had never happened in the earlier five seasons.
Imam, who goes ballistic at the drop of a hat, was seen having a tiff with the show's anchor Salman Khan a few days back during the nomination proceedings.
When asked about that, he admitted his mistake, but calrified: "I didn't have a tiff with him. I misbehaved with him...I have respect for him and I know him since the last 25 years. This is not the right time to talk about it."
In Wednesday's episode, Imam was kidnapped from the storeroom of the Bigg Boss house and kept in a solitary confinement where his only connection to his housemates was a TV set that allowed him to see and hear what they feel about him.
Imam says this exercise helped him.
"I was put there and this helped me get rid of all the misunderstandings. I got to know the reality and my eyes were opened," said Imam, who was seen behaving exactly how he is seen on the show - he was blowing kisses, being loud and posing in front of the camera to attract attention.
Other contestants were also very happy to see the media and welcomed all questions.
The show started on Colors channel in October last year with 15 contestants. Currently model Niketan Madhok, one of the finalists, is inside the house along with Rajeev Paul, Urvashi Dholakia, Sana Khan, Delnaaz Irani, Sapna Bhavnani and Imam.
The finale is said to be on January 12 and the winner will reportedly take home Rs 50 lakh.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) – Health officials in Kanawha and Putnam counties are working to reopen restaurants, daycare centers and other facilities that have closed because of a chemical spill.
Dr. Rahul Gupta is health officer for the Kanawha-Charleston and Putnam County boards of health. He said Saturday that the health departments are taking applications from facilities for conditional approval to reopen.
Gupta says these facilities must submit a plan to provide potable water for activities such as cooking, serving and washing. Once the plans are approved, county sanitarians will inspect the facilities to verify them.
Gupta says health officials will work around the clock to reopen as many businesses as possible.
State officials have told West Virginia American Water customers in nine counties to not use tap water because of the spill.

March 19, 2013 -- Planting Potatoes
For those of us who are dedicated vegetable gardeners St. Patrick's Day is a time we look forward to in the Midwest. St. Patrick's Day is the traditional date for planting potatoes, particularly Irish potatoes. When the weather permits, some of the biggest potato harvests I have ever had resulted from planting seed potatoes on St. Patrick's Day.
The weather most likely prevented you from planting this year on St. Patrick's Day. Oh, the parades go on rain or shine, but when it comes to planting potatoes, the best advice I can give you is don't plant in the mud. Most gardens I've seen this past weekend, including mine, are a bed of muddy soil, and too wet to work with.
If you pick up a handful of soil, squeeze it a bit, and if it falls apart easily, it's time to plant. If it forms a mud ball instead of breaking apart easily, it is too wet to plant. If you plant in the mud, your garden can become like a concrete or asphalt jungle as the weather warms up and summertime gets here. The soil is pretty much damaged for the entire growing season. It just doesn't recover easily.
If you're worried that you didn't get potatoes planted on St. Patrick's Day this year, be consoled. There is another milestone date and that is Good Friday, which this year is March 29. Even if things are too muddy to plant on Good Friday, you still have time to plant. I have planted potatoes as late as the last weekend in April and have had a good harvest. The harvested tubers might not be as large, but they are still great.
When you get your seed potatoes ready for planting -- seed potatoes are not the potatoes you see in the grocery counter -- cut them into several pieces making sure each piece has two eyes in it. It gives you a better chance of getting a plant out of each piece of tuber. I almost always plant Red Pontiac and Yukon Gold. And wait for harvest in late June when the first purple flowers have begun to wilt. Good luck growing!
