Thread: NBA star who took tattoo pic which shows his pot stash, faces backlash, posts suicidal messages on Twitter in response
NBA star who took tattoo pic which shows his pot stash, faces backlash, posts suicidal messages on Twitter in response
See the previous thread here:
Miami Heat forward Michael Beasley has checked into an unidentified Houston rehabilitation hospital, multiple sources told Yahoo! Sports.
Sources said the Heat encouraged Beasley to check into the facility to address possible substance and psychological issues. He is expected to spend time with former NBA player and coach John Lucas, who is renown for his success in working with troubled players. As part of the NBAs treatment program, Beasley is expected to stay in the facility for a minimum of 30 days with little outside contact, one source close to him said.
When reached Monday morning, Miami Heat spokesman Tim Donovan declined comment. An NBA spokesman also declined comment.
Beasleys admission to the center comes as a handful of disturbing Twitter posts were recently attributed to him.
Y do I feel like the whole world is against me I cant win for losin, Beasley wrote.
Feelin like its not worth livin!!!!!!! Im done.
Beasleys frustration had been born out of a posed Internet photo on his personal Twitter page. In the photo, Beasley showed off a SuperCoolBeas tattoo on his back while two plastic baggies could be seen on the floor in the background. Some people have speculated on the bags contents, even though the clarity of the photo makes it difficult to determine. After the photo became a fast-moving Internet story, Beasley posted the messages on his Twitter account before the page was shut down on Saturday night.
Even before the Heat made him the No. 2 pick after Derrick Rose in the 2008 draft, Beasley has been a target of criticism inside and outside the organization for his immaturity. From team president Pat Riley to superstar Dwyane Wade, the Heat have been frustrated with Beasleys clownish attitude and personal decisions.
The NBA fined Beasley $50,000 for being in a room where marijuana was found at the NBAs rookie symposium last summer. Beasley had slipped out the door when security officials arrived on the scene, leaving Mario Chalmers and Darrell Arthur to face punishment alone. Riley later found out Beasley had been in the room and forced him to confess to league officials. So far this summer, Miami had been unwilling to include Beasley in trade talks with the Utah Jazz for Carlos Boozer.
Beasley had a solid rookie season for Miami, averaging 13.9 points and 5.4 rebounds.

Poor thing....SI VIS PACEM PARA BELLUM-Ex-Sheriff Martin Howe to Will Kane in "High Noon"
"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.

Haines Brewing Company, Inc., established June 21, 1999
owned and operated by Paul Wheeler & Jeanne Kitayama
~ Welcome to our website ~
For years friends trekked across tide flats and through coastal forests to our home, for the taste of Paul's fine brews. Then with the encouragment of local folks, and growing from those homebrew recipes, we took the leap to open the brewery. Starting off with dairy tanks from the midwest for fermenters, we scrubbed off the old butter and Paul started brewing. We grew quickly, exchanged the dairy tanks for closed fermenters, and now regional demand is more than Paul can supply. All our beers start with organic base malts, and use no filtering or pasteurizing, to produce one of Alaska's finest hand-crafted beers.
Currently, in our location in Dalton City at the Southeast Alaska State Fairgrounds in Haines Alaska, we have several beers available on tap. Beer can be purchased by the sample glass or pint to consume on premise, or by the liter or half gallon to go.
Haines Brewing Company is a proud supporter of the Great Alaska Craft Beer Festival held every year in Haines.

The Fender Acoustic Custom Shop's Collector Custom Series pairs our finest instruments with the talents of highly regarded contemporary graphic artists. With our guitars as their canvases, the results are one-of-kind acoustic instruments of fascinating creativity and personality—great-sounding and highly distinctive-looking collectors items to be cherished by a fortunate few.
From the mind of talented graphic artist Melanie Steinway comes a new variation on a Fender Acoustic Custom Shop instrument. Steinway used a meticulous wood-burning technique to apply her creative imagery to this elegant moth-themed Collector Custom Series dreadnought acoustic, creating a limited edition of one. The Acoustic Custom Shop then finished the instrument, with remarkable features including a solid Engelmann spruce top; solid mahogany back and sides; bone nut, saddle and bridge pins; nitrocellulose lacquer finish; and Fishman® electronics for superb amplified tone.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- McDonald's Corp. /quotes/zigman/233369/delayed/quotes/nls/mcd MCD -0.27% said Friday global comparable sales in January fell 1.9%, fueled by a 9.5% decline in the Asia/Pacific, Middle East and Africa region. The fast-food chain attributed the region's sales decline to ongoing weakness in Japan, a timing shift of the Chinese New Year and fallout over recent supply issues in the Chinese chicken industry. January comparable U.S. sales rose 0.9%.

ALBANY, N.Y. — The Army says the third person killed in an attack over the weekend in Afghanistan was a West Point graduate who grew up in the Hudson Valley.
Authorities at Fort Drum say 39-year-old Maj. Jaimie E. Leonard was an intelligence officer with the 10th Mountain Division who graduated from the Military Academy in 1997. Local media outlets report Tuesday she graduated from Warwick Valley High School in Orange County.
Leonard was training was training Afghan soldiers at a base in Paktika province on Saturday when she and the others were shot by a man in an Afghan army uniform. The attacker was also killed.
Killed along with Leonard were 40-year-old Lt. Col. Todd Clark, an Albany native also serving with the 10th, and 54-year-old Joseph Morabito of Hunter in Greene County, a civilian contractor.

Dane County has a reminder for homeowners this spring. Fertilize your lawns phosphate–free.
The county banned the use of fertilizer with phosphorous in an effort to protect its lakes.
The lakes and watershed commission reports that phosphorous run-off causes algae that threatens fish.
Customers will not find fertilizer with phosphorous on store shelves, but one store manager at Dorn True Value says they will find effective and less expensive alternatives. Larry Roth says, "It's setup same way. We had four–step, gives you complete coverage on your lawns. Just phosphate free packages are different color so it throws everybody when they look at them."
Customers still can get fertilizer with phosphorous. Exceptions to the county law include new grass or grass tested with a soil kit that indicated the need for phosphorous.

Said of a fighter, in boxing parlance, who, once he entered the ring didn't live up to his reputation of being a skilled boxer, packing a KO punch, well prepped for his fights, and regarded as the the odds-on favorite.
That's analogous , at least to me, of how Obama, despite having been heavily favored to easily prevail over Romney (if not mop up the floor with him as some predicted) in the first of their three scheduled bouts for the title of president, it was just the reverse that turned out to be true as he ended up losing by a wide margin, and barely escaped from being kayoed.
To continue with that analogy, as the debate progressed he became more like a punching bag for Romney's roundhouse rights and left hooks, with his counterpunches beng blocked or lacking in power.
And adding to the beating he was taking, not once did the referee (moderator) warn Romney to stop with all the low blows when he had Obama in a corner.
Now, it was evident from the opening bell, that Romney was determined to take charge of the event and its tempo, going so far to assert his dominance as to chide the moderator for daring to stop him for exceeding his alotted time.
Similarly, when Obama was speaking he could hardly constrain himself from interrupting him to counter each and every point before his turn.
I also couldn't help but observe his eye expressions throughout the 90 minutes, which appeared as flat and vicious like the eyes of a mean dog crouched over a bone. And, as they say, the eyes are the mirrors of the soul.
As the performance, which was what it most closely resembled drug on, my attention span lessened considerably, with my eyelids drooping ever lower with each succeeding segment.
I looked forward, as did my dog, with eager antiscipation to the end of that boaring, one-sided battle of words and slurs, which was well past our bedtime.
Nor was there any reason to stay up later waiting to hear how the judges-the political whizards on the networks analyized it to death, knowing that they would be as dumbfounded as I was by the results, especially by the president having previously ruled out the possibility of Romney ever becoming a formidable opponent, as he ended up doing in one fell swoop.
But I will, nevertheless, watch the next ones, if only to see if the president can rebound from that stunning defeat and recapture the zeal and all-out dedication to winning he displayed in his first championship fight.
He can, however, take comfort in knowing that there's no evidence that the presidential debates have any lasting impact on how people vote, by having already made up their minds.
And that all they really accomplish is to afford us an opportunity to assess their demeanor, likeability, composure (when under attack), wit, and even their physical appearance and facial expressions.
A case in point, was when Nixon, in the debates with Kennedy in 1960, who after refusing to have makeup applied beforehand, looked like death warmed over, leaving many viewers questioning his overall health and whether he could survive a full term as president.
On such intangibles, many politician's image in the public's eye have risen or fallen.
Quote of the week: "I wish I could give you a lot of good advice, based on my experience in winning debates…But I don't have that experience…My only experience is at losing them." Richard Nixon

Kansas State would have come in 17th in the Bowl Championship
Series if the rankings were based on academics rather than athletics.
That's according to the nonpartisan New America Foundation think tank. It released its sixth annual BCS Academic Bowl rankings.
The foundation examines graduation rate and academic progress data collected by the NCAA for the top 25 teams in the BCS final standings. Game performance isn't a factor in ranking the school's academically.
Kansas State ended the season ranked fifth in the regular BCS and will play Oregon in the Fiesta Bowl.
The Foundation ranked Northwestern first in the Academic Bowl. It found the school had the highest graduation rate among football players at 90 percent. In the regular BCS, the school ranked 20th.

No More Ticks Herbal Tick Remedy contains powerful herbals traditionally used to naturally help ward off ticks and address the symptoms associated with tick bites and related tick-borne diseases. Begin using a couple of weeks before, and throughout, tick season.
Available in a 2oz tincture.
No More Ticks Herbal Tick Remedy Ingredients
Organically grown or respectfully wildcrafted - Garlic, Yerba Santa, Goldenrod, Tobacco with Flower Essences of Tansy, Broccoli, Elder, B-1, Zucchini for Emotional Balance in glycerin, alcohol and filtered water.
How to use Herbs
Herbal products are not meant to be used every day as food. It is best to give your animal breaks to make sure their body does not adapt to the herbs, making them less effective, and to allow your animal's body to eliminate constituents contained in the herbs so they do not build up to undesirable levels within the body. The following examples pertain to using herbs prophylactically, meaning as a preventative, or for chronic conditions. When using herbs for an acute condition, such as a short term illness, herbs may be used daily, depending on the herb, for a couple of weeks, as long as no undesirable symptoms are displayed. There are different schools of thought on how to best use herbs longer term.
Five days on, two days off
This method is fairly obvious, take the herb for five days and then rest for two and repeat.
Periodic resting
With this method of herbal supplementation you take the herbs for one week then rest for one day; continue for one month then rest for a week; continue for six months then rest for a month.
Use only during tick season is recommended.

I know how to pique doctors with interesting injuries. When I lived in Alaska, I fell off a horse in an area called Chitna, and successfully dislocated and broke my left arm, broke my collar bone, and shattered my scapula. It took a long while for the ambulance to come, given the distance from the clinic and lack of communication (the nearest phone was up the road several miles). When I finally made it to an orthopedic surgeon in Anchorage 10 days later, he said he was in awe of how I had completely disintegrated my joint.
Aside from the shoulder injury, I also broke four teeth. I did not know they were broken until years later as each slowly came apart, but a dentist confirmed that the impact of the fall most certainly was the cause.
Moving here, I had the opportunity to meet another orthopedic surgeon while I was explaining to him that the dog bite on my left wrist was my fault. Having recently been convinced to foster a stray Shiba Inu, I stupidly put myself into the middle of a dog fight. As a result, I received a perfect impression of the young dogs teeth on my left forearm. I thought nothing of it, but eventually took the advice of friends and saw a doctor. He took one look at the X-ray and rushed me to an orthopedic surgeon. He determined there was no permanent nerve damage but that I required observation because it is a significant injury.
I went home, and thanked the foster puppy for introducing me to Raleigh medical care. For the record, the speed at which I got from the doctor to the orthopedic surgeon this time was much faster than when I lived in Alaska. But now, I have injured the wrist and the shoulder of my left arm. I think my left elbow is becoming worried. It has already received stitches from when I fell off the horse in Chitna, but somehow it escaped its destiny of becoming incapacitated with the rest of my left limb. My elbow knows its time will come.
One would think lessons are learned through experience and knowledge gained, but being the independent spirit that I am, neither apply. My latest medical adventure involved my decision to mount my roommates harpoon on the wall. Dont ask why my roommate has a harpoon, and please, do not inquire about my intelligence or the plan I developed on how to do this. Like most good intentions, it seemed like a great idea at the time. I got the ladder, hammer, nails, measuring tools, and started my task of hanging the special object so that it would blend with other antique artifacts we have around the house.
Remember the foster puppy? She is still here, and she thinks that play-fighting with the other two dogs is an excellent way to spend an evening. Remember me? I was on a ladder, holding a hammer, a harpoon, and several nails in my mouth. Three dogs start to play, hit the ladder, and you can imagine the rest of the mess that followed, except the part where my jaw met the iron table we have in the living room, and I immediately realized how teeth get broken during accidents. The dogs just wandered around thinking this was all part of the game, and alas, I had to explain to my roommate how the harpoon did not survive the fall.
So, I met my dentist. Two of the teeth involved in this accident were two of the same teeth injured 10 years ago in Chitna. After a few X-rays, I was whisked to the orthopedic surgeon to ensure there was no damage to the swollen jaw (which fortunately there was not). I have decided to keep my orthopedic surgeon on speed dial. It seems a proper mandate for my life.

Staunton Woman Wins $100,000 Lottery Prize Twice
Monday, July 14, 2014 10:22 AM EDT
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Lady Luck has smiled on a Staunton woman again.
Peggy Huffman won the Virginia Lottery's top Cash 25 prize of $100,000 in the July 4 drawing. She also won $100,000 in Cash 5 in September 2006.
The lottery says in a news release that a ticket bought by Huffman at Staunton BP matched all five numbers. The winning numbers were 14-17-25-30-32.
Huffman says in the release that she couldn't believe she had won the $100,000 prize again.
Huffman is retired. She says she plans to use the winnings to pay bills.

|Head Women's Track and Field Coach
|4th Season
|Alma Mater:
|Northeastern University
The 2013-14 season will mark the fourth for head coach Consandria
Walker. Since taking over the program, Walker has seen tremendous
success and has continued to bring in some of the top athletes in
all of New England.
This past outdoor season, Walker coached the first female All-American in over 20 years at UMass Boston in freshman Hulerie McGuffie. McGuffie also became the first female in program history to be named the Little East Conference Indoor and Outdoor Rookie Field Athlete of the Year after winning the long jump event at both conference championship meets. McGuffie was also a member of the first 4x100 relay team to qualify for the outdoor national championship when she joined teammates Samara Faustin '13, Anisha Trappier, and Renee O'Brien in Wisconsin.
In the 2012-13 campaign, Walker helped develop some of the top sprinters since the program's "Golden Era". Faustin was amongst the elite sprinters in the entire Little East Conference, and with Walker leading the way the Beacons saw tremendous success in both the indoor and outdoor seasons.
As a standout four-year student-athlete for Northeastern University from 2006-10, Walker competed in the shorts sprints, triple jump and long jump. Walker qualified for her NCAA Championship as a sophomore and later as a senior tri-captain. The NEU graduate was known for her leaping abilities as she racked up 10 long jump and seven triple jump titles in her four years.
Along with her NCAA Championship appearances in the triple jump, Walker was a member of the Huskies' first-ever 4 x 100-meter Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) champion relay squad (47.45). At the New England Championship, Walker won the indoor long jump championship in 2009 along with the outdoor 4 x 100-meter relay title (46.44). Walker completed her senior year leaping a 12.53m in the Triple Jump at the Seahawk Invitational.
At Hackensack High School in Hackensack, NJ, Walker captained the track team for two years and was recognized with All-County, All-League, All-State and All-American honors.
Originally from Montego Bay, Jamaica, Walker graduated from Northeastern with a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Services.

Traverse City Record-Eagle
---- — TRAVERSE CITY — Soak it in and enjoy the experience.
Those are the words of wisdom Nikolaj Brons-Piche has for his friend and fellow golfer Gates Muller after learning Muller had qualified for next month's U.S. Amateur at Brookline Country Club in Massachusetts.
Brons-Piche has room to hand out advice, considering he just returned to Traverse City following two rounds of play at the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship at Laurel Hill Golf Club in Lorton, Va.
While Muller was earning his way to the U.S. Amateur after shooting rounds of 73 and 71 this week at the Bloomfield Hills Country Club, Brons-Piche was competing in his first USGA tournament, an event that saw him fire rounds of 77 and 79.
"I saw he qualified and I sent him a text after and I said I was so happy for him," said Brons-Piche, a sophomore at Texas Wesleyan and TC Central grad. "I grew up playing golf with him and it's so cool to see me go to the Public Links and now him qualify to go to Brookline Country Club — one of the biggest, historic places in all of golf, at least stateside."
Muller, a redshirt freshman at Michigan State and a TC West grad, had to overcome bouts of rain during the second round that added an extra day to the qualifier. But he persevered through it to punch his ticket to what will be the biggest tournament he's ever entered.
"It was kind of a mental game," Muller said of the qualifier. "You had to stay prepared mentally and really stay with your routine. I think it took some people out of play, but I think I fought through it and was able to put a good round together."
As expected, Muller can't wait for his opportunity to face off against the best amateurs in the nation.
"It's a very prestigious event," he said. "I'm very excited to play in it. Not many people get to do this in their life and I did it at a young age, and that's a real step forward in my career. We'll see how it goes. I'm just there to have fun."
Brons-Piche didn't think he was going to be playing at the Public Links Championship until early last week. He had qualified as an alternate in early June at the Cedar Chase Golf Club in Cedar Springs, but he got the call from the tournament indicating he was added to the field.
"It was obviously a huge honor to go play in that thing," he said. "I didn't even think I was going to get in. I got the call on Tuesday. I had three days before I left. I've been kind of nursing an injury so I haven't been practicing much. It was a little bit stressful, but it was still a good experience."
The injury hindered Brons-Piche's performance at the tournament, causing him to be eliminated after two rounds of stroke play.
"I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses, but I did have a lower back muscle strain that happened at the state amateur and it hadn't healed," he said. "So it was just difficult to make committed swings and hit the ball like I normally do. I'm not a long hitter and on the longer holes it was just really difficult. It was frustrating because it wasn't how I wanted to perform. It was still good to be there."
Muller will get some good experience in before he heads to Massachusetts. He's playing in the Northern Amateur in Indiana, then teeing off at the GAM Championship in Birmingham.
"I have to be out there (Massachusetts) Aug. 10 so I think I'm going to take off after the GAM Championship," Muller said. "I'm going to head straight out to Massachusetts from there. I'm going to plan on playing a couple of practice rounds before. There's two courses out there that we're going to be playing so hopefully I can get a couple of rounds under my belt."
Though his injury might ultimately prevent it, Brons-Piche has a chance to qualify for the U.S. Amateur on July 24 at the Bay City Country Club.
"It doesn't look like that's going to happen since his injury," he said. "I've just got to nurse it back to health. It just takes time. I may or may not play in that (qualifier). It's at a course I've played before and it's not incredibly long so it's doable."'
If he does manage to qualify, Brons-Piche would put three Traverse City golfers into the U.S. Amateur field, including his cousin Patrick Colburn, a teammate of Muller's at Michigan State.
"I think it would be fabulous if myself and Gates and my cousin Pat, if we all made it out there," said Brons-Piche. "It would be such a great time. I can't even imagine. It would be so much fun."

A call to borough residents to name a newly developed Ebensburg mini park ended up yielding dozens of suggestions, some honoring prominent locals and celebrating the site's lumber history.
In the end, borough officials realized one idea would end up being the park's name, whether they picked it or not.
"Ghost Town Trail Park," said Borough Manager Dan Penatzer.
"Given the fact it sits right next to the trail, that's how people are going to know it. So we might as well call it that."
"It's going to be a starting and ending point for a lot of hikers and bikers ... and it's probably going to be a halfway point for others," Councilman Joe Lutz added. "So it makes sense."
The borough's recreation committee recommended the name after sorting through finalists such as Plank Park and Lumber Yard.
It's the borough's third landscaped park gateway. The others, Penn-Eben and Kimball parks, are on opposite ends of the downtown business district.
The park is located on West Street between the Ghost Town Trail and Memorial Park. Council envisioned it replacing the entrance to the former Babcock Lumber site, which was acquired in 2009.
The property was home to a dilapidated office building and kiln. It is now a landscaped area with lighting, brick walkways, a pavilion and benches.
State funds were used for demolition work, and borough workers handled some of the park development to keep costs down. The project's construction cost about $25,000, Penatzer said.
Council plans to formally dedicate the new park in the spring.

Prized possessions of professional chefs, Wusthof knives are an invaluable asset of any kitchen. Every element of this renowned cutlery contributes to its precision and ease of use. In Solingen, Germany, each piece is hand-forged in 38 manufacturing steps by skilled craftsmen. The high-carbon stainless steel blades are hardened to maintain a sharp edge and full tangs provide perfect balance with riveted, high-impact triple-riveted composition handles.
Wusthof's newest state of the art technology incorporates a new computer controlled method for putting the edge on Classic knives. This technology allows for an exacting edge from the tip of the knife down to the heel of the knife. With this newer precision, the knives are made sharper to 14 degrees per side for a total of 28 degrees. The knives are now sharper and this refinement increases the sharpness retention because exacting angles and edges last longer than edges sharpened by hand. The result is a knife that is 30% sharper and the ICP (Initial Cutting Performance) lasts twice as long.

I have been using Wusthof knives for years, and highly recommend them to my friends. I have used their gourmet and classic lines. I am currently switching out all my gourmet to classic. I used the 8" chefs knive for years, with great results. I, must admit though, that since I've gotten the santoku, the chefs knive hasn't left the block. I highly recommend the santoku. I like the weight of the knive and the clean cuts it gives. If you are just starting a knive collection i recommend wusthof classic and the 7" santoku, 4" paring, and a bread knife. Those I use almost daily.
good quality knife preforms as expected.
due to the alloy used stains easly, must clean and dry immediatly after each use.
Love this knife. I use mine every single day and my newly married son asked me for one for a birthday present. He loves it.

One of the longest serving elected officials ever in Florida will be leaving office early next year.
Holmes County Clerk of Court Cody Taylor was first elected in November, 1976. He has held the post for the past 36 years. Taylor decided not to seek a tenth term, and his last day in office will be January seventh, 2013. Over his tenure, his office has filed and processed some 40-thousand misdemeanor and criminal cases.

Matthew Herper, Forbes Staff
I cover science and medicine, and believe this is biology's century.
Donald Trump just went on CNBC and argued that vaccines are causing autism. The claims went unchallenged. He said:
Autism is so prevalent today. I've been saying this for a long time, that the — I'm not against vaccination but I'm against massive vaccinations at one time in order to save doctor visits with the doctors. and frankly, a lot of people love that and some people didn't look it. My attitude is if you spread the vaccinations over a period of time, what do we have to lose? Autism is so prevalent.
Trump has been making similar claims on Fox and Friends and on Twitter. On TwitLonger, he made the following summation of his position:
I've gotten many letters from people fighting autism thanking me for stating how dangerous 38 vaccines on a baby/toddler under 24 months are. It is totally insane – a baby cannot handle such tremendous trauma. Now they come up with this ridiculous study blaming obesity in the mother. The FDA should immediately stop heavy dose vaccinations and you will see a huge decrease in children with autism. What do they have to lose—nothing—but plenty to gain if I am correct. There is great dishonesty about autism!
Luckily for me, someone smarter and richer than Trump — twenty times richer – has already done the bulk of the job of correcting this statement. On national television, no less.
Cue Bill Gates, from his 2011 CNN interview with Sanjay Gupta, on the retracted paper by Dr. Andrew Wakefield that helped kick off the idea of a vaccine-autism link:
Gates: Well, Dr. Wakefield has been shown to have used absolutely fraudulent data. He had a financial interest in some lawsuits, he created a fake paper, the journal allowed it to run. All the other studies were done, showed no connection whatsoever again and again and again. So it's an absolute lie that has killed thousands of kids. Because the mothers who heard that lie, many of them didn't have their kids take either pertussis or measles vaccine, and their children are dead today. And so the people who go and engage in those anti-vaccine efforts — you know, they, they kill children. It's a very sad thing, because these vaccines are important.
Just to emphasize that: "an absolute lie that has killed thousands of kids." Gates, through the work of his foundation, has seen the impact that these vaccines can have. Hundreds of thousands of kids still die of measles every year worldwide because they don't get measles vaccine. In a few countries, there are still cases of polio. If we stopped vaccinating, it would come back here. Whooping cough is making a comeback, perhaps partly because of weaknesses in the vaccine, but also because some people are choosing not to get kids their shots. Trump's statement that we have nothing to lose by trying out giving fewer vaccines, or even changing the vaccine schedule, which makes it more likely that kids will miss shots, is simply wrong. If there were a link between vaccines and autism, we would be faced with a terrible choice: choosing whether children would get autism, or whether children would die.
Thankfully, we don't face that choice. At one point, the worry was that overdoses of thimerosal, a mercury-containing preservative in vaccines, was causing autism; that preservative is no longer in routine childhood vaccines. But there are no data supporting this worry. Large studies have failed to show any signal that getting more vaccines makes it more likely that kids will be diagnosed as autistic. When I profiled Bill Gates last year, I remember him telling me that scientific proof just wasn't enough to get rid of this connection in some people's minds.
"Some scientific myths like the thimerosal thing are hard to get rid of entirely," Gates said. "You know, it's just hard to have everybody look at the data, which couldn't be clearer on the fact that that is not associated with the increase in autism."
These kinds of worries hit us right in parts of our brains that have little to do with the analysis of data from scientific studies. When my kids got their shots, I remember being nervous about the autism link, even though I didn't believe it. Because when you're holding an infant, the thought that you might be doing something to hurt them is simply terrifying. It takes work to make it go away. But no one is helped if we keep following blind alleys. It would be better to put more effort to make sure that kids with autism spectrum disorders are diagnosed as early as possible, so that therapists can do more to help them.
On one point, I do agree with Trump:linking the rise in autism to obesity is a stretch at this point. I think most of the reporting on this topic makes us seem farther along in finding answers than we actually are. For instance, reports that we may have finally found some genetic changes that may cause autism in some kids probably went too far, as UC-Berkeley biologist Michael Eisen details here. His take: all we've learned is that kids with autism have more genetic mutations than those without, but we don't know if something is causing the mutations and the autism, or if the mutations are causing the autism, or if there is some other explanation. Scientists studying autism are climbing a giant mountain and have only the tiniest handholds.
I also understand that many people don't want to trust vaccine makers like Merck, Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, Sanofi-Aventis, and Novartis, because they are for-profit companies and have behaved badly in the past. But trusting Trump seems like a stretch here, too. We should at least admit that medicine is more complicated than an episode of "The Apprentice."
Update: For those who have not been following this debate closely for years, here are some studies showing that there is not a link between autism and vaccines, or the MMR vaccine in particular. The Institute of Medicine concluded that the evidence favored rejecting any relationship between MMR vaccine and autism. I'd also refer people to this study from NEJMand this one from JAMA.
Trump on CNBC:
Bill Gates on CNN:
Are these stats based off of acute or chronic dosages?
Just because thimerosal is a mercury containing compound doesn't mean its effects will be the same as pure mercury. By your logic, NaCl (common table salt) can be equivalent to dioxin.
Doesn't show up in attempts to study the probelm? Mathew, if you do a Pubmed search for "autism mercury" you get references to over 200 papers. If you seperate out the papers that generate original emperical data from the ghost written review papers you will find that their are 15 papers that deny a link. There are over 45 that support the link. Get it? If you bothered to read the research and not just repeat the McNews headlines, you would see that the evidence that supports the link is overwhelming. The type of mercury used in vaccines is arguably the most toxic form of mercury that exists.
I agree that those numbers sound pretty bad, Joe. But we don't replace babie's cerebrospinal fluid with pure vaccine, we inject them with a small amount. The doses are determined by both the concentration and the volume of the dose. And since babies are exposed to mercury from a wide variety of sources, the human body obviously has defences that are not present for neurons grown in cell culture.
Eight vaccinations with 50,000 ppb vaccine at 1/2 mL a pop comes to about 200 ug of mercury assuming one receives/recieved the highest mercury content versions of the vaccines.
Multinational studies of mercury in breast milk come to a fairly consistent average value of about 1 ppm mercury content, with individuals commonly expressing milk with a mercury content several fold higher. With a daily consumption of 750 mL, the total average mercury dose in the first 6 months of life is about 135 ug. The distribution is quite wide, as many express milk with mercury levels several fold higher than the average value.
Consumer reports recently found that canned tuna contains mercury at levels approaching 1000 ppb. A typical serving of 100 mL or so will deliver a dose of 50-100 ug at a single sitting.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for minimizing mercury exposure. But I don't hear a lot of activists campaigning for mothers to have their breast milk tested or for keeping tuna salad out of the public schools, so its hard to understand the focus on mercury in vaccines.
Sorry, that should have read 1 ppb in breast milk. The total exposures in the same paragraph were based on 1 ppb and are correct.
I'd like to refer you to an article I read on a personal blog concerning just that method of combining chemicals to form toxic compounds.
This method concerns a possible conspiracy to poison individuals using multiple delivery methods of seemingly harmless chemicals when introduced by themselves but react to other chemicals that are introduced to the body by other means. It was quite an impressive possibility.
I hope I can link to outside articles, I'm new here and don't know much about policies of submitting links.
Concentration levels are unimportant. What you need to look at is the dosage of mercury administered.
Matthew are you kidding me with this?????? When I was a kid we were getting about 1 or 2 shots a year and we weren't dropping dead from diseases…. All three of my kids had 36 shots by age 3 and you don't think that is extreme??? ALL THREE OF MY KIDS HAVE AUTISM…. My daughter at one years old had 5 shots in one session….. 67 cases have been won in the past few years in Vaccine Court when the symptoms of autism were used but the word autism was not used.
I entered my family into the Autism Genetic Research Exchange. They came and drew blood from my 3 kids and my wife and I. Guess what the results were…… no genetic deletions, additions, or mutations….. So what do you say to a family like mine…. What caused their autism if not the overdosing of vaccines and the mercury that is in them?
You and Bill Gates are under the delusion that Thimerosal is no longer used…. this is the biggest lie being told to families like mine….. It's in the DTap vaccine, the Hep B vaccine, and in the flu shots that are given out year after year…..
The fact is that I don't trust any lab who researches this that has money connections to the govt or the pharma industry. The govt and pharma need the vaccine cause to be false because they know that parents like me would sue the hell out of the pharma industry and the govt for the cover up. And the public outrage would be so great that the pharma companies could not hide behind the vaccine courts on this one….. Bill Gates a hero?????? I think not…. the man believes in using vaccines as a form of population control…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vzFeiKH1jQ
Well if vaccines are being used for "population control" then autism is a great result in the eyes of someone like Gates….. more autism means less human reproduction and thusly a shrinking population….. a Hero…. I doubt it…. he is part of the problem
The CDC's recently released stats are for children born in the year 2000. These children still received thimerosal in a lot of shots. The commitment to remove thimerosal was first voiced by our govt agencies in 1999, but at that time shots containing thimerosal were not recalled; they were used up. Some had expiration dates in 2003 and even 2004.
The flu shot was added to the schedule for babies & children in 2004, and the CDC refused to express a preference for thimerosal-free flu shots.
Also, even now thimerosal is still used in some vaccines. See the CDC's vaccine ingredient list here:
It's amazing how a lot of the people who say that we don't really know whether autism is increasing – that it may just be better diagnosis – also say that the rate of autism has continued to increase since thimerosal was "removed" from vaccines, and that therefore thimerosal doesn't cause autism.
It's human nature to prefer to blame a vast sinister conspiracy than your own flawed genes.

Holton teachers returned their contracts unsigned to protest a lack of negotiations and another year without a pay raise.
The teachers took 69 unsigned contracts to the Holton school district's offices on Monday.
Joni White, president of the Holton National Education Association, says teachers are unhappy that the board of education issued a unilateral contract last week. She says teachers also haven't received a raise in four years.
Teachers had asked for a 1 percent raise for next school year, which would have cost the district about $51,000.
Superintendent Nancy Meyer said 132 certified teachers were involved in the earlier negotiations.
Under the unilateral contract, teachers could accept the contract,
continue under the 2010-2011 contract or resign without penalty by
July 3.

My price is FIRM because these books cost me almost $250 NEW, and shipping will cost about $30.00, so I'm only going to actually get $70 for these which is a steal. Think twice before asking me to take less, have a great day...............AMY

Next Generation Ubuntu: First Gutsy Gibbon Beta
Release Manager Steve Langasek today announced the first beta version of the next generation Ubuntu, Gutsy Gibbon.
The distribution uses kernel 2.6.22 which introduces dynticks for more frugal power consumption – a benefit that laptop users will appreciate. Thanks to the new kernel version, Intel's Powertop software will run in native mode, another bonus for power tuners.
Ubuntu includes the brand new Gnome 2.20, although X.Org 7.3 has not made the cut for this release. Despite this, the Ubuntu desktop enables a couple of basic 3D effects by default, assuming a graphics adapter with 3D support. Ubuntu automatically detects and configures printers, and it can write to NTFS partitions thanks to the NTFS-3g project.
Things are also happening on the browser front: Ubuntu users can install Firefox plugins via the package manager, and Gnash, which is free, although not quite stable, is available on request as a GPL'd replacement for Flash. Ubuntu relies on AppArmor for security.
The download site offers Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Edubuntu. The final release of the Debian-based Linux distribution is scheduled for October 18, 2007.
The new Kubuntu does not include KDE 4.0, but it does integrate the Dolphin file manager and the Strigi desktop search engine with KDE 3.5.7 to give users a first impression of the next generation KDE. KDE 4.0 will be made available in the form of KDE4 packages at a later stage. As a further highlight, Kubuntu includes the new Open Office 2.3 and improved proprietary driver installation support.

When someone wants to buy their mountain backpack, with little or no knowledge on the subject (can not think about buying a backpack on the Internet without knowing it or have it tested before), it is possible to end up leaving the shop with a super-duper 50 liter pack, capacious, with many pockets, but nothing like what they really need. Backpack capacity is measured in liters or cubic inches.
For a good resource on how to choose a backpack head on to rangermade usa, They have a very good article on how to choose a good tactical backpack at http://www.rangermade.us/the-best-tactical-backpack-in-2014/
Currently backpacks have evolved a lot, both in design, aesthetics, materials and systems for transporting load, which have undergone a major shift, to provide comfort and ease of transport as much as possible.
We should always choose a backpack that makes us comfortable, since we are going to spend many hours with it on our back, and the ideal would be not to notice it.
A very important factor in choosing a good backpack (doesn't have to be expensive) are its frame, the size of the back and its belt; the other elements that make up the backpack, are also important, but don't have a big influence.
The frame supports and transmits the load to the belt, therefore it must have an acceptable rigidity.
There are many materials and designs (plastics, Duralumin, carbon fiber, etc.) but the important thing is to have a good rigidity, and to allow the air to flow around the back, regardless of their material, since they have a design that allows (in theory…) air to circulate and ventilate the back better.
I sometimes use a 55 l backpack of a prestigious brand, with frame and grid and I can assure that I still get wet, so I would also advise for a conventional backpack for heavy loads (no frame), since in the end, as I say, your back will keep being wet.
The ability to adjust is an important issue, since not all brands have sizes, and most manufacture backpacks in one size, that have adjustable strapping systems which can adapt to the length of your torso; that is essential for a correct fit.
The belt and lumbar support are the main part of the backpack. In a good design it will properly the load to the waist and at the same time to the thighs, thus relieving the backbone.
The weight of the backpack rests on our shoulders, is transmitted by our torso and spine, passes to our hips and then to the feet, therefore our vertebrae and neck muscles are free of this burden. If we use correctly the belt of the backpack, the load is brought directly to the hips not overworking our shoulders and spine.
To get the most out of the belt, this should hug the sides of the waist well and not let the weight slide down. However, women having more pronounced hips, the transfer of the weight is less facilitated, so they must find a backpack adapted to their morphology and that allows them to carry the belt in a position higher than men, which in effect shortens the length of the back of the pack.
There are backpacks with women-specific markings. These have a higher belt adapted and shoulder straps that do not hinder the breasts.

PLATTSBURGH — A Plattsburgh woman was arrested for allegedly possessing stolen items from K-mart.
Heather L. Calkins, 25, was an employee at K-Mart when several items, including jewelry, clothing and cosmetics, went missing from the store, according to Plattsburgh-based State Police.
Following an investigation and an interview with the store's loss prevention officer, police said Calkins admitted to having the items at her Tyrell Avenue home.
She was taken into custody at about 12:10 a.m. Oct. 21 and charged with fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property valued at over $1,000, a felony, and fifth-degree criminal possession of stolen property and petit larceny, both misdemeanors.
Calkins was arraigned in the Town of Plattsburgh Court and issued an appearance ticket for a future court date.

Full moon night photography of abandoned places is a bit of a niche category. The purpose of last week's night photography design challenge was to open up a dialog about ways to share the beauty of this wonderful little world with more people. As a result of the blog post, I had a series of interesting email exchanges with 6 photographers. Even though I don't plan to pair images and quotes in future presentations of my photos, this was a thought-provoking experiment.
The night photography insiders who participated had very different approaches to pairing image and text. The moods that were evoked ranged from dark to spiritual, and there were 2 entries in the comedy genre. The results are in the gallery below. Thanks to everyone who gave this experiment a whirl.
Participating photographers:
- Sebastian Bakaj – Seb's image took the Eliot quote into dark territory with a photo of a mannequin in the waterslide pool of J's Amusements.
- David J. Lewis – The lonely image of the old shot-up car in the desert with snow and joshua trees was one of my top picks for pairing with the T.S. Eliot quote. David Lewis, who was profiled on this blog last year, felt the same way.
- Jeff McCrum – Jeff picked a recent image from a Nevada ghost town, and varied the font size to play with the impact of the quote over the image. He also submitted a humorous interpretation that paired the quote with a restroom image from Rock-A-Hoola.
- Steve McIntyre – Steve picked an image from an abandoned cement plant that includes religious symbolism, taking the quote in a more spiritual direction.
- David Evans – This alternate T.S. Eliot quote works really well, and the image selection is perfect.
- Anonymous – This entry pairs an internet meme with a junkyard image from the secret boneyard.

Intel 8086 microprocessor family
Intel 8086 microprocessor is a first member of x86 family of processors. Advertised as a "source-code compatible" with Intel 8080 and Intel 8085 processors, the 8086 was not object code compatible with them. The 8086 has complete 16-bit architecture - 16-bit internal registers, 16-bit data bus, and 20-bit address bus (1 MB of physical memory). Because the processor has 16-bit index registers and memory pointers, it can effectively address only 64 KB of memory. To address memory beyond 64 KB the CPU uses segment registers - these registers specify memory locations for code, stack, data and extra data 64 KB segments. The segments can be positioned anywhere in memory, and, if necessary, user programs can change their position. This addressing method has one big advantage - it is very easy to write memory-independent code when the size of code, stack and data is smaller than 64 KB each. The complexity of the code and programming increases, sometimes significantly, when the size of stack, data and/code is larger than 64 KB. To support different variations of this awkward memory addressing scheme many 8086 compilers included 6 different memory models: tiny, small, compact, medium, large and huge. 64 KB direct addressing limitation was eliminated with the introduction of the 32-bit protected mode in Intel 80386 processor.
Intel 8086 instruction set includes a few very powerful string instructions. When these instructions are prefixed by REP (repeat) instruction, the CPU will perform block operations - move block of data, compare data blocks, set data block to certain value, etc, that is one 8086 string instruction with a REP prefix could do as much as a 4-5 instruction loop on some other processors. To be fair, the Zilog Z80 included move and search block instructions, and Motorola 68000 could execute block operations using just two instructions.
The 8086 microprocessor provides support for Intel 8087 numeric co-processor. The CPU recognizes all Floating-Point (FP) instructions. When the FP instructions reference the memory, the CPU calculates memory address and performs dummy memory read. The calculated address, and possibly read data, is captured by the FPU. After that the CPU proceeds to the next instruction, while the FPU executes the floating-point instruction. Thus, both integer and floating-point instructions can be executed concurrently.
Original Intel 8086 CPU was manufactured using HMOS technology. Later Intel introduced 80C86 and 80C86A - CHMOS versions of the CPU. These microprocessors had much lower power consumption and featured standby mode.

"So cute" was my first thought upon seeing this cottage. "" was my second. Third, upon opening the door and walking around, was "this place is immaculately clean!" Wanting something ohter than a hotel during a week long college exploration trip with my teenage daughter, I found the perfect spot in Michael and Laura's Contemporary Cottage. The pool was perfect for cooling off after long days walking around campuses. The kitchen allowed us to eat healthy breakfasts and the occasional dinner (once we discovered the cafe Lemonade cooking dinner was out and getting healthy, yummy takeout was in! Thank you Michael for letting us know about this place!). Having the bedroom and living room allowed my daughter and I to have our own space when we were getting on each other's nerves. The location was ideal -- only a few blocks to the 101 and all the ohter freeways we needed to look from Chapman in Orange to Pepperdine in Malibu (and lots in between). Michael and Laura were great hosts -- friendly and helpful while still giving us more than enough privacy. Next time we're in LA for more than a night, we'll be staying here.
This property was exactly as described, private and comfortable. We stayed for 2 weeks and will definitely stay again next time we are in LA visiting our daughter. Ellen is a good host.

ATLANTA — An NCAA investigation and a football game don't really have anything in common.
But they often looked like two sides of the same coin Saturday night, as a North Carolina team reeling from scandal was defeated, 30-24, by LSU on national television at the Georgia Dome.
It was hard to separate the scandal from the score Saturday, as they bled into each other constantly. LSU took full advantage of a Tar Heel defense missing a half-dozen starters, scoring on two touchdown "drives" of nine seconds each in a 23-point LSU second quarter.
The Tar Heels made it interesting early - they once actually led, 10-7, in the second quarter. Then North Carolina fell behind by 20 and tried - in unsuccessful but very entertaining fashion - to mount a furious fourth-quarter comeback.
Ultimately, though, the game was much like the investigation in the way it felt to most of those who care deeply about the Tar Heels.
North Carolina was ranked No.18 entering the game. But that was before the team held 13 players (eight of them starters) out of Saturday night's game. The university is dealing with eligibility questions regarding a two-pronged investigation into sports agents and possible academic misconduct. The total damage from that probe has only begun to be calculated.
So these Tar Heels are not the team they were supposed to be, and that ranking was based on old information.
While there were several joyous, big-time moments for North Carolina - including passes of 97 and 75 yards from T.J. Yates to Jheranie Boyd, and a very good second half - the ultimate takeaway from this game for those in light blue has to be embarrassment when you look at the larger picture.
ABC began its telecast by putting up a depth chart for UNC's defense and then crossing out the names of players who weren't playing because they were among the 13 players the school held out.
Then UNC's offense began the actual game by losing a fumble on its second play from scrimmage. If that didn't drive the point home completely that along with everything else, Butch Davis's latest club isn't great at fundamentals, the Tar Heels lost another fumble on their fourth offensive play.
If that wasn't enough, UNC had all sorts of trouble with the center-quarterback exchange Saturday and alternated centers depending on which one had messed up most recently. No. 21 LSU got a gift safety when one shotgun snap to Yates sailed right through the Tar Heel end zone.
Ahead 30-10 at halftime, LSU didn't really need any of that to win this game. The Tigers had the two best players on the field in wide receiver Russell Shepard and cornerback Patrick Peterson.
The Tigers constantly started in Tar Heel territory due to turnovers or huge kick returns. Peterson set a school record - just in the first half - with a staggering 244 return yards, including an 87-yard punt return for a TD.
The Tar Heel fans still turned out in force - there were at least 30,000 of them in a Georgia Dome that wasn't sold out. They were in full throat early as North Carolina played decently and grabbed that brief three-point lead. They rose again as the Tar Heels got to 30-24 late and recovered an onside kick.
But the Tar Heel fans were quiet once again as their last chance was fumbled away and the game ended, perhaps realizing that there's another parallel between this unpleasant season and the fallout from the investigation: Neither is anywhere close to being over.

After getting pretty dark last year (never say the word Q-Tip to us again), Girls' third season, which premieres Sunday at 10/9c on HBO is refreshingly light. Maybe it's because for once when the girls are faced with obstacles, such as death and depression, they don't sit around whining like victims of circumstance.
