Cliffs Natural's fight with Casablanca won't help stock rebound, Barron's says
Cliffs Natural's recent clash with activist investor Casablanca Capital, which is urging the company to split its domestic and international businesses, will not rescue the ailing stock, according to Barron's. Cliffs is expensive at 44.5 times forward earnings, and profit expectations continue to shrink, Barron's added.

Cliffs Natural urges vote in favor of seven Cliffs nominees
Cliffs Natural Resources issued an open letter to shareholders in connection with its upcoming 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, stating in part: "Cliffs' July 29 Annual Meeting of Shareholders is right around the corner and you have an important and strategic choice to make regarding the composition of the Cliffs Board and the future direction of your company. Last week, Cliffs announced that we reduced our slate from nine to seven candidates in order to provide shareholders with a clear path to vote consistently with the recommendations of Institutional Shareholder Services and Glass Lewis & Co without inadvertently providing Casablanca Capital with a majority of the Board of Directors as a result of Cliffs' cumulative voting provision... Surrendering a majority of the Board will enable Casablanca to enact what we believe is a value-destructive plan, including a "fire sale" of Cliffs' assets at the bottom of the commodity cycle."

Cliffs Natural announces revised proxy with ISS, Glass Lewis recommendations
Cliffs Natural announced that it has revised its WHITE proxy card to provide shareholders with a clear path to vote consistently with the recommendations of Institutional Shareholder Services, or ISS, and Glass Lewis without inadvertently providing Casablanca Capital with a majority of the board as a result of Cliffs' cumulative voting provision. While both proxy solicitation firms have recommended shareholders support four Casablanca nominees, they have recommended that Cliffs' nominees should remain as the majority of Cliffs' board. As such, Cliffs' board has reduced its slate of directors to be elected at the 2014 Annual Meeting from nine to seven candidates, with Barry J. Eldridge and Stephen M. Johnson no longer standing for re-election. With this change, shareholders can vote the company's WHITE proxy card in order to elect four of Casablanca's nominees and seven of Cliffs' nominees, which is in line with both ISS' and Glass Lewis' recommendations. In addition, Cliffs' board is offering to include Lourenco Goncalves, Joseph Rutkowski, Gabriel Stoliar, and Douglas Taylor on Cliffs' WHITE proxy card, subject to such individuals providing Cliffs with their consent to include their names on Cliffs' proxy card.

Casblanca Capital condemns Cliffs Natural's compensation practices in letter
Casablanca Capital LP, the beneficial owner of approximately 5.2% of Cliffs Natural Resources, issued a letter to shareholders in connection with Casablanca�s campaign for fundamental change at Cliffs and its nomination of six director candidates for election to the Board of Directors at the company�s upcoming 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on July 29. In the letter, Casablanca details escalating management compensation while shareholder returns have plummeted, the opaque nature of the management bonus and review process, and the ways in which bonus compensation metrics have changed from year to year in an apparent effort by the Cliffs Board to justify management bonuses despite severe underperformance. Casablanca reiterates that, in contrast to the current 0.3% of Cliffs shares that the current Board and management team owns, Casablanca has economically aligned itself with the interests of fellow shareholders, with Casablanca owning 5.2% of Cliffs shares and with Lourenco Goncalves� personal investment of $1.5M in Cliffs� shares. Donald Drapkin, Chairman of Casablanca said, �The Cliffs Board and management team have been pursuing their own personal agendas and enrichment at the expense of shareholders for far too long. It is time for the gravy train to end and for the Board to be held accountable. We are confident that on July 29 Cliffs� shareholders will vote to support a slate of new directors who will reverse the outrageous value destruction and stop the pattern of excessive compensation and self-dealing at Cliffs.�

SEATTLE — There were times last season when Washington Huskies wide receiver Jaydon Mickens was involved in jaw-dropping plays.
Trouble was, the mandible movement usually came after an open Mickens dropped a pass.
Short, swift and unreliable, Mickens had a hard time breaking through his freshman season.
Quarterback Keith Price was pummeled much of the year behind a makeshift offensive line. That, as much as anything, took away an expected strength of Mickens — the deep ball. There wasn't time to launch many his way. When there was, Mickens had a hard time pulling them in.
Another byproduct of the lack of protection was Price focusing on tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins and wide receiver Kasen Williams. Few others were involved in the passing game.
Among the missing was Mickens. His 47-yard reception against Utah was the longest of the year for Washington, but he caught just 20 passes for 190 yards.
Mickens said his brain slowed his feet.
"Mentally, that's what really bothered me last year," Mickens said. "Going slow because I'm not sure of the route, not sure if I'm going to cross somebody's face and make this big catch.
"Now, I just do it."
He just did it in the opener Aug. 31. The Huskies lined up Mickens in the slot or motioned him into the flat out of the backfield to get him the ball on the perimeter. He even took a handoff once.
When the 38-6 rout of step-slow Boise State was finished, Mickens had a career-high nine catches for 109 yards, 81 yards short of his total from 2012.
"I love being a moving target," Mickens said. "That's the one thing I really want to relate to, being a moving target. Me, John Ross, Marvin Hall, those guys that can really get the perimeter going; it's what we do."
Said UW coach Steve Sarkisian: "He's much more confident. He's always been a somewhat confident guy, just in general, but I think there's genuine confidence coming from Jaydon."
Despite the high-octane output in the opener, Mickens has a list of improvements to make.
"I could have broke three tackles for touchdowns, so, I should have had three touchdowns," Mickens said. "Route running could have been better. Assignment-wise could have been better. Blocking could have been way better, so that's what I am working on."
Washington moved up to 19th from 20th in The Associated Press Top 25 poll Sunday despite not playing last week. It's the highest the Huskies have been ranked under Sarkisian.
Washington remained 23rd in the USA Today coaches' poll.
Oregon is No. 2 in both polls. Stanford (5) and UCLA (16) are the other Pacific-12 Conference schools in the AP Top firstname.lastname@example.com blog.thenewstribune.com/uwsports @Todd_Dybas

By JOHN SHINN
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The anxiety Oklahoma's players are experiencing is going to last for about 12 more hours. The NCAA Tournament bracket will be released at 5 p.m. Sunday on CBS. Only then, will the Sooners know for sure if they're in the field of 68.
The waiting will be the hardest part.
"We hope we're in. We think we should be in. But it's not about us; it's about the committee and what they feel," OU forward Romero Osby said after Thursday's 73-66 loss to Iowa State in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 tournament. "We have lost two straight games, so they're going to look at that. But hopefully we're still able to make it."
The loss to the Cyclones meant OU failed to add an emphatic late-season victory to its resumé. OU has lost four of its last 10 games and has only had two road victories — at Baylor Jan. 30 and at Texas Tech Feb. 20 — in conference play. The loss to Iowa State won't hurt the Sooners' chances, but the loss to TCU in the regular-season finale raised doubts about OU's qualifications.
All those issues are legitimate, but as far as getting into the field, OU shouldn't have to worry. There have been two pillars to an at-large berth for Big 12 Conference teams. The Sooners have built both.
Since 2000, Big 12 teams ranked in the top 49 of the final RPI rankings and have double-digit conference victories have always gotten in.
(It might go back further, but accurate RPI rankings heading into the NCAA Tournament from the 1990s were not obtainable.)
The Sooners (20-11) were No. 39 in the RPI on Friday afternoon and they went 11-7 in the Big 12 Conference.
The only Big 12 team that's ever failed to get in with at least 10 conference wins was Kansas State in 2007. The Wildcats were No. 80 in the RPI that year.
ESPN's Joe Lunardi and CBS Sports Jerry Palm both had the Sooners as a No. 11 seed Friday afternoon. Neither has any influence with the NCAA Tournament selection committee, but they are considered the most accurate when it comes to forecasting the field.
OU coach Lon Kruger did a little lobbying Thursday.
"We played good basketball. We made good progress. Don't have anything that we can affect it with at this point," he said. "Like the progress they made, like the play that they've turned out. Obviously, a lot of it depends on upsets and other games. But I'd like to think this group deserves an opportunity."
It doesn't hurt that OU athletic director Joe Castiglione is on the NCAA Tournament selection committee. He'll have to leave the room when the Sooners are the topic, but his presence won't hurt their chances.
All signs point toward OU getting the chance. But it still means waiting through two more agonizing days before the field of 68, and the bracket is announced.
The Sooners will spend that time preparing to play. Even if the historical qualifications they've met are shunned by the selection committee, OU will get an NIT bid. For a program that did exit interviews a few days after the Big 12 tournament the previous three seasons, knowing there's still at least one more game to play is important.
"I think we did enough to be able to be in," OU guard Sam Grooms said. "But at the end of the day the committee makes that decision. And we did good enough to play in some kind of post season tournament and we gotta get back to work and prepare for whatever lies ahead."

SOURCE Discovery Institute
SEATTLE, May 15, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Known for its advocacy of intelligent design, Discovery Institute has released The Workhorse of the Cell: Kinesin, a dramatic new three-minute video revealing what could be the most visually stunning molecular machines in cells, called kinesins. The animation provides a new presentation of evidence for intelligent design at the cellular level.
"It's one thing to tell someone, 'Hey, kinesins are key transport proteins within the cell.' It's another matter entirely to show them, which is what this video does so beautifully," says philosopher of biology Paul Nelson. "For some very deep reason, our perception of function is powerfully enhanced by being able to visualize the design that exists in nature. One picture is worth a thousand syllogisms. No one who sees a kinesin in action can forget what they've seen."
The original animation by Light Productions brings to life these masterpieces of microengineering. Kinesins are motorized transport machines that move cellular materials to their correct locations so that they can perform their functions. Kinesins have two feet, or "globular heads," that literally walk, one foot over another. Known as the "workhorses of the cell," kinesins can carry cargo many times their own size.
The kinesin video is the third in Discovery Institute's series on molecular machines as evidence for design in nature. The first in the series, "Journey Inside the Cell," has over half a million views on YouTube. It shows how the digital information encoded in DNA directs protein synthesis in the cell. The second, an animation of ATP synthase molecular machinery, has accrued over 70,000 views since its release last year.
"I open my cell biology course with a video on the cell, and the kinesin molecule is always the star of the show," said Ralph Seelke, professor of microbial genetics at the University of Wisconsin, Superior. "Discovery Institute's video shows it in its full glory; and the inference of design is very strong."
"Congratulations to Discovery Institute," said Tobias A. Mattei, a neurosurgeon at InvisionHealth. "As an epitome of the remarkable set of high-efficiency intracellular machinery, kinesin constitutes another example of the delicate and fine-tuned balance required for sustaining even the simplest living forms."
You can view the video on the Discovery Science News channel on YouTube or at www.intelligentdesign.org.

A Muscogee County Jail inmate hiding his face with a cloth stabbed another multiple times Tuesday with a "shank," or hand-crafted weapon, the sheriffs office said Thursday.
Maj. Randy Robertson said the yet-unknown assailant stabbed the sleeping victim in the mouth, back and leg.
They have all kinds of blankets and sheets available to them, so he wrapped it around his head to disguise his identity, Robertson said. No charges have been filed. Were still trying to develop a suspect.
The cell block where the attack occurred held more than 15 inmates, Robertson said. I cant give you an exact number for security reasons but I can tell you it was multiple inmates, he said.
In the cell block, Robertson said there is a day room and multiple cells in the area. No suspect has been identified yet but jail officials are hopeful. The investigation is ongoing and we are feeling positive about it, he said.
Despite the number of wounds, the injuries required only a few stitches, Robertson said. The victim was released on bond after he was treated for his injuries. Robertson said his identity is not being revealed as a measure of protection.
Were not revealing his identity in case the suspect has friends on the outside that could come after him, he said.
Muscogee County Jail is handling the investigation internally.
This stabbing follows the deaths of three inmates which took place between Oct. 24 and Nov. 9.
Lori Carroll, 46, was found unresponsive in her cell on Oct. 24. She was pronounced dead 40 minutes later. An examination revealed Carroll had broken ribs, a punctured lung and wounds to her face. No cause has been given for her death.
Five days later,21-year-old Maurice Grier died from a brain aneurysm at Midtown Medical Center. Grier began banging on the window, complaining that he was unable to breathe and that his head was hurting. He was unresponsive when officials transported him to Midtown Medical Center, where a CAT scan revealed bleeding on his brain.
On Nov. 9, officials announced 57-year-old Issac Kindred had been beaten to death inside the jail. Jeffrey McKinney was later charged with that death. He was jailed on Oct. 25 on charges of aggravated assault, burglary, cruelty to children third degree, peeping tom and stalking.

Charley Wootan Grants for 2012-13 have been Awarded
Application processing for the Charley Wootan Grant Program has ended for the 2012-13 academic year. Notification letters have been mailed to more than 1,500 grant recipients, and TG is waiting for acceptance responses from awardees.
For the coming academic year, TG awarded $5 million in Wootan grants, $4 million of which will be apportioned to recipients within Texas and $1 million to recipients in other states. The Charley Wootan Grant Program is designed to help low-income students pay for a higher education. Awards are made based on financial need, and eligible students receive awards on a first-come, first-served basis. Because funds are limited, TG opens only as many applications as it needs to fully award to students in Texas and to those outside the state. TG received about 22,000 Wootan grant applications for the 2012-13 academic year.
The Charley Wootan Grant Program is one component of TG's philanthropic services created to help students realize their college dreams. For more than a decade, TG has offered Wootan grants, at first in the form of block grants to schools that chose recipients, and now, since 2008, to students who apply and are awarded based on need.
For questions regarding TG's Charley Wootan Grant Program, please see the frequently asked questions page regarding the program.

Comeback another sign Texans have turned corner?
The Texans overcame a 17-point third-quarter deficit to win at Washington on Sunday, running their record to 2-0 and keeping a one-game lead in the AFC South and perhaps signaling they are developing into legitimate contenders.
Texans WR Johnson has mild ankle sprain
Two Texans underwent MRIs Monday on their ankles. WR Andre Johnson has a mild sprain and is listed as day-to-day but is expected to start in Week Three. TE James Casey is expected to be out with an ankle sprain.
Schaub, Texans flip the script in Week Two
The Texans and QB Matt Schaub taught fantasy players a valuable lesson on Sunday: Don't read too much into one game.
Kubiak comes through in crunch time
Speculation mounted about Gary Kubiak's future in Houston late last season, but, thanks to the play of DE Mario Williams and others, owner Bob McNair is reaping the rewards of his loyalty after the Texans' impressive start.
Texans WR Johnson will have MRI on right ankle
Texans WR Andre Johnson will undergo an MRI on his right ankle this week. He left Sunday's game in the third quarter, only to return in the fourth period and haul in the game-tying TD pass.
Rackers FG gives Texans OT win over Redskins
Neil Rackers kicked a 35-yard field goal with 3:24 left in overtime, and Matt Schaub's 497 set a franchise record Sunday as the Houston Texans improved to 2-0 with a 30-27 win over the Washington Redskins.
Loss of promising Barwin weakens Texans' DE depth
The loss of promising reserve DE Connor Barwin hurts the Texans' depth, but the pass rush was no concern against Indianapolis because of the play of starting DEs Mario Williams and Antonio Smith.
Texans sign DEs Ogunleye, Denney
To add depth to the defensive end position after losing Connor Barwin for the season, the Texans have signed DEs Adewale Ogunleye and Ryan Denney.
Foster's emergence brings real balance to Texans' offense
Texans RB Arian Foster's sudden emergence as Houston's lead back makes an already very good offense more balanced — and thus more dangerous.
Report: Texans DE Barwin out for season with fractured ankle
Texans DE Connor Barwin crashed into a teammate in the first quarter of Week One and will miss the remainder of the season with a fracutred right ankle.
Texans likely rethinking game plan after Foster's monster day

Texans surprise Colts as Foster sets record
Arian Foster ran for a team-record 231 yards and scored three touchdowns to lead the Texans to a 34-24 victory over the Colts on Sunday.
Texans TE Daniels will start Sunday
Ten months after tearing his ACL against the Bills, Texans TE Owen Daniels will return to the gridiron in Sunday's season opener against the Colts.
Opportunity as Texans' backup knocks for Leinart
New Texans QB Matt Leinart will push Dan Orlovsky for the top reserve role behind starter Matt Schaub and may be a better fit in Houston's offense than Arizona's scheme, the way we hear it.
Texans sign seven to practice squad
The Texans signed seven players to their practice squad on Monday. They have one remaining open spot on the squad.
The NFL has reduced its fine on Smith for kicking Miami's Richie Incognito to $11,000.||||||| Smith was initially fined $21,000 by the league for kicking the Dolphins guard.

Fort Bend County sheriff's spokesman Bob Haenel (HAY'-nuhl) says the suspected drowning was reported about 9:30 a.m. Sunday at Smith's home just north of the Houston suburb of Richmond. He says foul play is not suspected, but an autopsy has been ordered.||||||| The 6-foot-4, 295-pound Smith is about to start his eighth season, and third with the Texans. He's started 31 of 32 games for Houston since signing with the team as a free agent before the 2009 season. Smith was originally a fifth-round pick by Arizona in the 2004 draft out of Oklahoma State. "We are aware of the situation," Texans general manager Rick Smith said in a statement Sunday.

Update 1:55 p.m. Thursday: The Associated Press and the Los Angeles Times are reporting that the search is now focused in Big Bear, where a burned-out vehicle matching the description of the suspect's Nissan Titan has been found.
In addition, the AP reports that though the fugitive was not found Thursday he is confirmed to have been here locally as recently as Wednesday.
"Cmdr. Brad Fagan says Dorner checked into a base hotel on Tuesday but left the next day and isn't there now.
Fagan says Dorner, a reserve lieutenant, left the Navy with an honorable discharge on Friday and may still carry military ID."
The former Los Angeles police officer who is the suspect in an Irvine double shooting and is believed to have killed a Riverside officer early Thursday was being hunted at Naval Base Point Loma in what is now believed to be a case of mistaken identity.
Police converged on the base, reportedly because of suspicions that Christopher Jordan Dorner, 33, also a Navy reservist, could be holed up at the Navy Gateway Inn & Suites.
A spokeswoman for the Coronado Police Department said the person in Point Loma is not the subject of what has become a statewide manhunt. She said local officers are monitoring the situation, but do not believe there is a direct threat to Coronado.
An NBC photographer posted a photo of the man mistaken for Dorner on Twitter, while KNX 1070 in Los Angeles tweeted that San Diego police confirmed the police activity at the base "is not tied to the case."
Fox5 San Diego added that the search for the man at two Point Loma hotels "has come up empty-handed."
In a 10 a.m. news conference that was ongoing at the Point Loma search proceeded, Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck said he would tell the suspect that "This has gone far enough" and that no one else needs to die.
He said 40 protection details have fanned out throughout Southern California to protect those Dorner has publicly threatened in an online manifesto in which he proclaimed his rage at being fired from the LAPD.
Police had earlier confirmed that a wallet containing Dorner's ID had been found on Harbor Drive San Diego International Airport at 2:20 a.m. Thursday.
The wallet was turned in by a passerby, according to San Diego police Officer Frank Cali.
It was not immediately clear what agency the badge represented or whether it was legitimate but the identification was clearly for Dorner, he said. Fox5 and UT-San Diego also reported that some of Dorner's belongings were found in National City.
Police were also investigating whether Dorner was involved in an attempted boat-jacking in Point Loma Wednesday night, said San Diego police Detective Gary Hassen.
Around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday, a gunman matching Dorner's description boarded a 47-foot vessel docked in the 2700 block of Qualtrough Street, police said.
The gunman tied up an 81-year-old man who was on the boat at the time and then tried to pull the boat out of its slip. When he could not operate the vessel, he took something from the victim instead and left, police said.
Dorner, 33, posted a multi-page manifesto online Monday, saying he didn't mind dying because he already died when he was fired from the LAPD for allegedly making false statements about his training officer.
He blamed his termination on an LAPD captain who represented him at the hearing that preceded it. That former captain was the father of a basketball coach killed with her fiance Sunday in Irvine.
He is 6 feet tall and weighs 270 pounds. He has been driving a gray 2005 Nissan Titan pickup, California license plate 7X03191 or 8D83987.
Anyone encountering Dorner should consider him "armed and extremely dangerous" and should not approach but instead call 911 immediately, police said.
A tip line has also been established, 949-724-7192.

Covering the intersection of tech and investing.
Amazon this afternoon reported what appear to be weaker-than-expected Q4 financial results, but the stock is trading sharply higher after hours, apparently due to better-than-expected margins in the quarter.
Amazon posted revenues of $21.27 billion, up 22% from a year ago, below the Street consensus at $22.26 billion, and about in the middle of the company's guidance range of $20.25 billion to $2.75 billion.
Profits were 21 cents a share, shy of the Street at 29 cents. Net income was $97 million, down 45%.
Operating income in the quarter was $405 million, up 56% from a year ago; that was actually better than the guidance range of -$490 million to positive $310 million. Gross margin was 24.1%, well ahead of the Street consensus at 21.9%, according to the stock news site StreetAccount. Non-GAAP operating margin also beat expectations, at 3.2%, ahead of the Street at 2.2%.
"We're now seeing the transition we've been expecting," CEO Jeff Bezos said in a statement. "After 5 years, eBooks is a multi-billion dollar category for us and growing fast – up approximately 70% last year. In contrast, our physical book sales experienced the lowest December growth rate in our 17 years as a book seller, up just 5%. We're excited and very grateful to our customers for their response to Kindle and our ever expanding ecosystem and selection."
For Q1, the company sees sales of $15 billion to $16.6 billion, below the Street at $16.86 billion, but up between 14% and 26% from a year ago. The company sees operating income for the quarter ranging from a loss of $285 million to positive $65 million.
A few other items from the release:
AMZN in late trading is up $15.31, or 5.9%, to $275.31.

The Brazil Concert Band is scheduled to present "Sousa Spectacular" at 8 p.m. Sunday at Forest Park Band Shell, rain or shine.
John Philip Sousa (1854-1932) was the world's most famous bandleader with a career that spread from his rise as director of the United States Marine Band (1880-1892) to his own incredible Sousa's Band, (1892-1932).
During that 52-year tenure, Sousa and his musicians criss-crossed the nation and even performed around the world making him America's first super-star millionaire musician.
Sousa managed to write hundreds of works for band and orchestra, including 136 marches giving him the title "March King." He still had time to author novels and an autobiography; become a championship skeet shooter and outdoor sportsman; own a stable full of horses.; collect guns; and become a married man with three children.
During World War I, at 62, Sousa received a Navy officer's commission and organized Navy bands at Great Lakes near Chicago, leaving with the rank of lieutenant commander at war's end.
He once remarked, "When you hear of Sousa retired, you will learn of his death." Sure enough, after guest conducting a band in Pennsylvania, the 77-year-old went back to his hotel and suffered a fatal heart attack.
The Brazil Concert Band will salute Sousa with an all-Sousa review of several of his lesser known marches and excerpts from suites to include "A Century of Progress," "Presidential Polonaise," "Tales of a Traveler," "Solid Men to the Front," "Easter Monday on the White House Lawn" and "Peaches and Cream."
Also, "At the Movies," "Dwellers of the Western World," "Marching Along," "People Who Live in Glass Houses" and "The Untitled March."

After gathering dust on Warner Bros.' shelves for two years, Mike Dougherty's Trick 'r Treat finally found its way to DVD earlier this month. Though inexplicably denied a theatrical release, screenings at festivals and conventions helped the film earn an enthusiastic fan base and a well-deserved reputation as one of the best horror movies in recent memory.
It also makes for some good Halloween reading in the form of a graphic novel from DC's Wildstorm imprint. Written by Manhunter's Marc Andreyco and illustrated by a bevy of horror-friendly comic-book artists, the pricey ($19.95) but handsome volume is a throwback to the old Creepy and Eerie comics that inspired the movie. It doesn't add much to the film, but it's a faithful adaptation that beautifully captures the story's spook-house mood and October ambience.
"I think the film is a blast," said Andreyco, who jumped on board as soon as the adaptation received a green light. "It is so nice to see a scary movie that has a sense of fun. These torture/sadism movies that pass for horror films really depress the hell out of me, so having a film that is spooky, funny, gruesome, and celebratory of Halloween is like water in the desert."
The movie was still in production when work began on the graphic novel, so Andreyco worked from Dougherty's screenplay.
"Not having the film to watch actually helped a lot," Andreyco says. "I was able to adapt the story, not just dialogue a fumetti book, and I think the book complements the film pretty well. I want people to be able to read the comic and have a complete story and then want to rent the film. The whole purpose of the graphic novel for me is to put focus on Mike's film because it is such a labor of love for him—and damn fun to boot."
For the uninitiated, Trick 'r Treat is an anthology of four separate Halloween stories that are united by the ubiquitous Sam. He looks harmless enough with his footed pajamas and jack o' lantern lollipop, but be warned: dis Halloween, and he'll hand you your ass in a bloody paper bag. In both the film and the graphic novels, the stories are dressed up in every small-town Halloween trope you can think of, from glowing jack o' lanterns atop picket fences to swirling leaves in a gloomy forest. If it all sounds like a twisted take on It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, that's no coincidence. The characters were originally named after the Peanuts gang; the names were changed when, according to Dougherty, the issue came to the attention of Warner Bros. attorneys.
It would be a shame to spoil the stories' many surprises, so it's enough to know that each chapter is a celebration of all things horror, and each comes complete with its very own Tales From the Crypt-ish twist. The proceedings occasionally get pretty nasty—in an early scene, for instance, a young boy learns a particularly harsh lesson about why it's important to check your candy before you eat it—but there's a constant campfire atmosphere that keeps everything planted firmly in the realm of fun. Each chapter is illustrated by a different artist in a very different style. Mike Huddleston, best known for his work on Gen 13 and Friday the 13th: Badland, favors a traditional comic-book technique with heavy lines and shadows for the first chapter's suburban serial-killer tale, while Grant Bond (Archibald Saves Christmas, Gene Simmons' House of Horrors) opts for a more cartoonish take on the second chapter's story of a Halloween prank that gets a bit out of hand. Christopher Gugliotti (Texas Chainsaw Massacre: Raising Cain) uses vivid hues and watercolors that are just right for the inside-out fairy tale of part three, and Fiona Staples employs the strikingly cinematic compositions and heavy pen work that earned her much attention for North 40.
Like the movie, the Trick 'r Treat graphic novel is a welcome throwback to the kind of horror that doesn't rely on people getting tied to a chair while other people slice bits off. It's traditional, old-school horror, and it's creepy, funny and suspenseful. It won't have much cross-genre appeal, but fans of horror comics will get their money's worth.
"[It] was made with a love of all things Halloween," Andreyco said, referring to both the movie and the graphic novel. "It isn't a sequel or a remake or a re-imagining. It is wholly Mike's vision, and the fun he had making it is palpable."
If you're a horror fan, Trick 'r Treat, in any form, is a must. So carve a pumpkin, watch the movie and read the graphic novel.
And always check your candy.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Peter Criss of Kiss knows what a .357 Magnum tastes like -- because he shoved the barrel of one down his throat in a suicide attempt. Rolling Stone has published an excerpt from his upcoming autobiography, "Makeup to Breakup: My Life In and Out of Kiss." Criss writes it was 1994 and he felt like a has-been, with two failed marriages, a floundering career and hardly any money. Then the Northridge earthquake hit Southern California and destroyed what little he had. Criss says that's when he decided to kill himself. In the rubble of his apartment, with the gun in his mouth, he saw the photo of his daughter was not damaged. That's when he decided life was worth living. "Makeup to Breakup" comes out October 23.

My Email Digests
*No Dr Outside Contact Please*
Over the past several weeks/months, and particularly over the last few days, I have begun to notice some very concerning signs. She isn't sleeping well. Her speech is extremely irratic, fast-paced and disjointed. She seems extremely moody, very quick to anger, very quick to become emotional.
In short, I am extremely concerned that we might be heading down a path that could lead to a place we found ourselves 7 years ago. My heart races with my own anxiety when I see her this way. We have 3 kids, aged 19, 16 and 12. I sooooo don't want them to be adversely impacted by anything that is happening, or, might happen...
I believe I am going to have to sit down with my wife and discuss what I am seeing. I guess I might even have to suggest that we see a Psychiatrist...
I posting here as I really don't have anyone to speak to about this situation, as nobody can fully understand or appreciate the situation.
If anyone out there has any supportive words of wisdom/advice, I am all ears. I love my wife dearly and I am committed to helping her in any way possible... I pray that what I am seeing is only a momentary situation and not the beginnings of a more serious problem. However, the signs are so strong...
Thanks for allowing me to share and again, appreciate any and all feedback.
Thank you...
I would definitely have her see a psychiatrist to be officially diagnosed and properly medicated if need be. If she has bipolar, then she will NEED medication just as if she were diabetic and needed insulin.
So that would be my first step - make an appointment with a good psychiatrist and go from there. If she is indeed bipolar, then she didn't recover from bipolar - she may have had a period of time where she wasn't symptomatic, but bipolar is a physical illnees that requires medication to help control. Also, seeing a good therapist in conjunction with medication is oftentimes (usually) suggested because medication alone can't fix old thinking patterns and behaviors.
Thank you for sharing your story here, and I hope all the best for your wife and yourself! Keep us posted on how things are going and what you decide to do and if you need anymore help, ideas, suggestions, etc.
I'm going to have to be very careful about how I deal with this going forward. We live apart from the rest of our families, so we're out here in AZ all alone. However, she does have a sister in Seattle who I can confide in and who might be able to have some influence on my wife.
This is going to be a rocky, challenging road... Ugghhhh....
I am glad to see you on the board. My wife and i have been struggling with extreme bipolar disorder for over eight years. I do not have any medical training but have been around those who have bipolar most of my life. If you ever need to some one who gets what it like to have a bipolar wife I am hear for you. One warning it may take 24 hours or more for me to get back to you especially on the weekend when I work long hours.
I hope things get better for you and your wife soon.
Try two different profiles, and ask her if she'd be willing to put in her symptoms of her hospital stay several years ago into one profile and what she feels now into another profile - but don't word it that way! Maybe do three profiles. Her at her worse, her at her best, and then the hospital stay several years ago. And you will have to do it with her, so you aren't attacking her. You are your best. You are your worst, and you sometime when she hated you - so she can bash on you some. Realize what you are doing by bringing this up is very hurtful to her, even if she does need to be taking better care of her health and even if you aren't doing anything technically wrong.
"This is going to be a rocky, challenging road" - be careful to have a positive attitude. And rocky and challenging is like off roading in a Jeep. You're a man. So tough it out. She obviously needs support from you right now, so give it to her, even if she pushes you away.
last thing, do not - I repeat - do NOT show her this post! Consider having the administrators delete it if she's going to sign up for her own profile, because if she sees it, you're toast!
As for prayer it is a two way street just as god can work with the person who is ill. God can also give wisdom to the the wife, husband or other care givers to do what ever it takes to insist that the person who is ill get help before things get so out of hand.
So to sum it up there is more than one correct way to handle every situation.
That is just my two cents on the matter.
Now to what I agree with. Yes, it is difficult and challenging at times living with a bipolar but we just make life more interesting that way. And a positive attitude helps with everything, but especially with bipolars. And I am so sick of hearing you're a man, tough it out. That's the problem with society today. They teach our young men that it's "not cool" to be sensitive or loving, that they have to be "macho" all the time. They don't. We should be teaching them to be caring loving adults who care for their wives and children. Divorce is tearing our society apart. But I'm getting on my soapbox. Just be careful who you down in the future. We stick up for one another on this board. Have a nice day.
Either way do not be stranger more than one person in our community has taken interest in you and your wife's story and I am sure we are all rooting for your wife's full recovery.
I appreciate your perspective. Thank you for teaching me.
I hope you guys can be a great support for each other? You both are very strong. Maybe you've found a life long friend... I have nothing else to offer to you, Joe. Sorry! The situation is deeper than anything I have direct experience with, but here's this much. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_0_26?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=power of a praying husband&sprefix=power of a praying husband%2Caps%2C497
Take care,
If nothing else keep the people who suffer from Bipolar disorder in your thoughts and prayers.

NJ Legislature Exploring Decriminalizing MarijuanaMay 21, 2012, 11:37am
Today the New Jersey Assembly Judiciary Committee is considering Assembly Bill Number 1465 (A1465), which would most notably decriminalize possession of 15 grams or less of marijuana, and impose a new range of civil penalties instead.
States Coalescing Around Petitioning DEA to Reschedule MarijuanaDecember 8, 2011, 5:10pm
The Colorado Independent reports today that Colorado is joining Rhode Island and Washington State in �(petitioning) the federal government to change the schedule of marijuana under the Controlled Substances Act." While three states have coalesced around this issue so far, more states are expected to join since 16 states (including the District of Columbia) have now passed medical marijuana laws.
The Week of Lying Dangerously
Obama displays a Clintonian desire to have things both ways.July 6, 2011
There was a time, says Senior Editor Jacob Sullum, when Barack Obama seemed more honest than Bill Clinton. While Slick Willie notoriously claimed he smoked pot but "didn't inhale," Obama candidly admitted, "When I was a kid, I inhaled frequently. That was the point."
Lately Sullum has not been so impressed by Obama's truth-telling tendencies. He says three incidents last week vividly illustrated the president's Clintonian desire to have things both ways, even if it means insulting our intelligence.
False Forbearance
Obama breaks his promise to respect medical marijuana laws.May 11, 2011
Two weeks ago, Washington Gov. Christine Gregoire vetoed a bill that would have clarified the rules for supplying medical marijuana in her state, citing threats of prosecution by U.S. Attorneys Jenny Durkan and Michael Ormsby. U.S. attorneys in several other states have made similar threats in recent months, discouraging some jurisdictions from proceeding with plans to establish licensed medical marijuana dispensaries. Reason Senior Editor Jacob Sullum says these threats, which are backed by the Justice Department, kill any lingering hopes that President Obama would keep his campaign promise to respect medical marijuana laws.

Tired of red ink and politics as usual, 80 percent say they�d consider voting for a third-party or independent presidential candidate in 2012May 3, 2011
As the federal government rapidly approaches the $14.3 trillion debt ceiling, 96 percent of Americans say it is important to reduce the national debt, according to a new Reason Foundation-Rupe poll. Of those surveyed, 69 percent believe reducing the national debt is "very important."
With the debt piling up, it is also clear that taxpayers do not trust the federal government to live within its means. In fact, the Reason-Rupe survey finds 74 percent of Americans support implementing a spending cap that would prohibit the government from spending more money than it takes in during a fiscal year. Only 19 percent oppose a government spending cap.
The most popular policy prescription for reducing the national debt is spending cuts: 45 percent of people say Congress should bring down the debt by reducing spending without raising taxes. Another 16 percent favor reducing the debt primarily through spending cuts, but are open to some tax increases; 14 percent prefer an equal emphasis on spending cuts and tax increases; 8 percent want to reduce the debt primarily through higher taxes with some spending cuts; 4 percent say current spending levels should be maintained and taxes should be raised as needed; and 1 percent of Americans say we shouldn't do anything about the debt.
The Reason-Rupe poll included several open-ended questions that allowed respondents to voice concerns and share their own ideas. When asked to name the biggest problem facing America today, 30 percent say the economy, 23 percent emphasize jobs and unemployment, and 10 percent cite government spending, debts and deficits.
When given the opportunity to name any government program they'd like to spend less money on 22 percent of Americans suggest cutting military and defense spending.
�It�s No Longer a Matter of If, It�s a Matter of When�
Staying high on marijuana legalization after the defeat of Proposition 19November 5, 2010
On election night, I was in the driveway of the law offices of Bruce Margolin, head of the Los Angeles branch of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) and L.A.'s most famous pot-crime defense lawyer. The local marijuana community had gathered there to celebrate (or mourn) the vote returns on Proposition 19. This was California's high-profile chance to legalize the possession of up to an ounce of marijuana and to grow up to 25 square feet of marijuana plants. The proposition would also grant localities the power to allow higher limits for possession and growth, and, if they chose, to legalize, tax, and regulate sales.

Grafs' 21 Points, Staunch Defense Key Win Over Central Michigan
Monday, December 23, 2002Valparaiso, Ind. - Raitis Grafs scored 15 of his 21 points in the second half to lead Valpo (5-4) to a 65-51 victory over Central Michigan (6-2). Grafs, who made eight of 16 shots, also grabbed six rebounds, blocked three shots and snagged two steals. The Crusaders, who have won three straight games, extended their homecourt win streak to 16.
Valpo's defensive pressure was constant throughout the entire game as the Chippewas were limited to 25 percent shooting (14 of 56). Central Michigan made seven of 29 shots in the first half (24 percent) and seven of 27 in the final 20 minutes (26 percent). After shooting 37 percent in the first half, the Crusaders responded by making 50 percent (12 for 24) from the floor in the second half.
The contest pitted the 6'11" Grafs against CMU's 7'0" Chris Kaman, who finished with 22 points, 11 rebounds and two blocks. Kaman, who scored 13 points in the second half, was the lone Chippewa to score in double figures.
Ali Berdiel complemented Grafs with 12 points and four assists, and four other Crusaders added six-or-more points. Greg Tonagel had six of Valpo's 17 assists and Antti Nikkila tied Grafs with three blocked shots.
Valpo, which led 27-24 at halftime, began the second half by outscoring CMU 13-4. Two dunks by Grafs highlighted the run as Valpo led 40-28 with 14:17 remaining. A thunderous dunk by Stalin Ortiz gave Valpo its second 12-point lead of the game. The Chippewas slowly closed their deficit behind eight points by Kaman and trailed 49-42 at the 9-minute mark.
Grafs ignited the Crusaders again with a conventional three-point play and Kikas Gomes' free throw expanded Valpo's lead to 13 (55-42) with 7:16 left. Mike Manciel kept CMU close with four free throws to key a 9-2 run and cut Valpo' s advantage to 57-51. Grafs, a senior, once again led the Crusaders' charge with four points as Valpo finished the game outscoring CMU 8-0.
Valpo (21 of 32) and Central Michigan (21 of 29) nearly matched each other at the free throw line. Roberto Nieves, who added eight points and seven rebounds, joined Grafs and Dan Oppland by snaring two of the team's 10 steals. Valpo's bench outscored CMU's reserves 15-4. Three-point shooting was a non-factor as CMU finished two for 16 and Valpo was 0 for 6. Turnovers were almost even as CMU committed 18 to the Crusaders' 17.
Following a break to celebrate Christmas, Valpo begins a two-game road trip by facing Purdue on Saturday at 1 p.m. EST (noon CST).

That chick is cute.
Is this supposed to be funny? ROFLMAO! It's a comedy sketch??? The interviewer has had one espresso (yeah perhaps a euphemism) too many and Sassi Bob can muster up the word "Party" as a response to any question- whilst flailing Jazz Hands in the air. A lot if gas about nothing! Love it for all the wrong reasons!!! =-)

SMU News and Information
(214) 768-7654
January 9, 2001
DALLAS (SMU) -- Three justices from Russia's Constitutional Court, the nation's highest court, and two members of Russia's regional courts will meet with members of the Texas Supreme Court in an historic visit arranged by Southern Methodist University School of Law.
The Russian and Texas justices will discuss "Relations Between National Courts and State Courts" in a public forum moderated by SMU Law School Dean John Attanasio, who holds the William Hawley Atwell Chair in Constitutional Law, Friday, Jan. 12 from 12:15 to 1:45 p.m. in the SMU Underwood Law Library's Walsh Classroom. Media interested in attending the event should call the SMU Office of News and Information at 214-768-7650.
The Russian justices will meet with Texas Chief Justice Thomas R. Phillips and Justices Craig Enoch, James A. Baker and Deborah Hankinson. With the exception of Phillips, the Texas justices attending are all alumni of the SMU School of Law.
Established in 1991 by the former Soviet Congress, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation resolves cases based on Russia's Constitution. The court, which is the first judicial body of constitutional review in Russia's history, has played an important role in developing the country's constitutional law and protecting the fundamental rights of its citizens.
The Russian justices were invited to SMU by Attanasio, who has arranged other visits by the Russian Constitutional Court to America and Europe. In 1992 Attanasio arranged the first U.S. visit of five justices of the Russian Constitutional Court that included a historic meeting with justices of the U.S. Supreme Court.
Visiting from Russia are Justices Yuriy Rudkin, justice of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation; Oleg I. Tiunov, justice of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation; Gennadiy Zhilin, justice of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation; Teymuraz Chedzhemov, chairman of the Constitutional Supervision Committee of the Republic of Northern Ossetiya-Alaniya; and Salman Gadzhimagomedov, chairman of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Dagestan.

iPad Speakers
No matter how you use your iPad—to play games, watch movies or listen to music—you probably want the sound turned on. But sometimes you might feel like your built-in iPad speaker system doesn't exactly have pipes like Pavarotti. Fear not, the fat lady hasn't sung yet. An iPad Speaker Dock from Brookstone will provide big, crystal clear sound every time you really want to turn it up. Plus, an iPad dock is super-convenient when you want to enjoy your favorite music or movies hands-free. But you shouldn't have to part with your device every time you want quality sound. That's why we've also got iPad speakers that stream your content wirelessly. Hang on to your iPad, or put it down and take the speaker with you. Either way, you'll get full-range stereo sound wherever you go. Whatever you choose to use your speaker for, iPads are always more fun when the sound comes from Brookstone.

Kalyanee Mam's vérité documentary offers a sobering portrait at how encroaching modernity is threatening the livelihoods and traditions of three struggling families in very distinct parts of her native Cambodia. Deforestation is decimating the lush mountain jungles and its stocks of wild animals. Fish are disappearing from the rivers. Fields are going neglected as workers flock to sweatshops in the capital of Phnom Penh.
Considering that her family once toiled in Cambodian work camps, Mam observes her homeland with surprising compassion, as well as the skilful eye of a preeminent cinematographer. (She previously lensed the Oscar-winning Inside Job.) Her visual compositions are astonishing, utilizing the vibrant landscapes as stunning backdrops for her immaculate studies of backbreaking labour and impossible decisions. Sincere and unpresumptuous, Mam's directorial debut is undeniably vital, offering a universal story of survival, love and hope.
"This is a film about sacrifice, lovingly observed. Cambodia is undergoing rapid changes that are forcing people off the land and into debt… What were once mountains are now roads; what was once a forest is now commercial farmland owned by Chinese businesses; where there was once an abundance of fish, now there is a paucity. The many moments of beauty to be found in A River Changes Course represent a strong contrast with all of this."—Vicki Robinson, Film Comment
