So, the latest round of eye-boogery ...
To make a long story short, I noticed my glasses were getting fuzzier on the right side, so I went to the optometrist to get a new prescription.
Wow, that's changed a lot, said the doc. It was pretty stable, for like, five years. You should go get it checked.
So I did.
Ophthalmologist said, I don't see anything, but let's take some pictures ...
Oops. Little hole in the retina there, wasn't there before ...
A quick lesson in eye physiology and anatomy: The eyeball is filled with something like warm Jello, called vitreous humor. As we age, it tends to shrink, and when that happens it pulls away from the lining, which includes the retina. No problem, except that sometimes it doesn't want to let go, and you get a torn retina. Not as bad as a detached retina, but maybe needs to be repaired.
Easiest repair is laser surgery. They deaden the eye, hit the tear with with a laser, and spot-weld it back into place. Outpatient, surgery, take it easy for a few days, all fixed, another little blind spot, but beats the option.
So I want to visit the next level of specialist, one who does such things. Another round of tests and pictures, eyes dilated for two days, yadda-yadda, and cut to the chase, no surgery for now.
We are going to–pardon the word-play–keep an eye on it for a couple-three months, then recheck it. It can get better, worse, or stay the same, and depending on how that goes, probably need a new lens in the specs on that side.
Never a dull moment.
Meanwhile, I am cleared to go bungee-jumping, skydiving, or trampolining. I should not allow myself to be hit repeatedly in the head, but that's not a good idea anyhow ...

1978-88 Mylar 6 Piece Cutlass and Malibu Bucket Seat Trim. Includes 4 short base and 2 long back trim pieces.
The factory had a Molded Plastic that was chromed. The problem is over the years it has become brittle. You can remove and try to spray chrome it but we know how that will turn out. This is an inexpensive and quick way to get that new look back when re doing your Hi back bucket seats. Nothing worse than spending the money on a complete new interior and having a major eye sore.

Going-to-the-Sun Road opens different days each year depending on the snow.
The entire length of the road to Logan Pass will be open to vehicle traffic at that time.
Glacier's FREE Shuttle now available
A new FREE shuttle system will transport park visitors to various destinations along the Going-to-the-Sun Road. Park your car and enjoy a car-free day in the park. You can enjoy the spectacular scenery without having to concentrate on your driving. No tickets or reservations required, and transit stops are clearly marked along the Going-to-the-Sun Road. The shuttle service offers visitors a way to avoid traffic and parking problems especially with the road construction.
This is a 2-way service between the Apgar Transit Center and St. Mary Visitor Center. Buses run every 15 or 30 minutes between approximately 7:15 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. from July 1 through Labor Day. More information is available at the Apgar Transit Center and St Mary Visitor Center to help you understand the full range of options.
About Going-to-the-Sun Road
Going-to-the-Sun Road is a dramatic 52 mile highway that divides Glacier Park east and west and crosses the Continental Divide at 6,646-foot-high Logan Pass. You will see lakes carved by glaciers, dense forests and abundant wildlife. Scenic turnouts provide spectacular views and photo opportunities. The road is a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark. Learn more…
Most of the roads and highways to Glacier are well maintained and open for vehicles nearly all year long. Park roads are typically clear during the spring, summer and fall months. Going-to-the-Sun Road is open from mid-June through mid-October (sections of the lower-elevation are open year-round).
Every attempt is made to clear Going-to-the-Sun Road and open Logan Pass as soon as conditions permit. Spring snowstorms or excess snow accumulation will dictate when Logan Pass can be safely opened for traffic. Typically, Logan Pass opens sometime in May and Logan Pass opens around June 15th.
Due to road maintenance begun in September, parts of the road will be closed. Going-to-the-Sun Road is beginning a $170 million renovation. You can still reach Logan Pass from the St. Mary access or Highway 2. Tour services will also continue operation.

This Brazilian Shrimp Soup is an incredibly delicious tomato creamy soup with shrimp, coconut milk and seasoned to perfection. Perfect for any occasion!
I kind of promised myself that I'll stop complaining to you guys about the cold weather here, but I can't help myself. It's been a super cold here in Calgary and it doesn't seem like it's going to end anytime soon.
It's almost March already, I'm ready for spring, I want to hear the birds chirping outside, I want to see the trees budding, I want to see the grass, I want to stop wearing thick winter coats and gloves, I want to go outside and feel the sun on my face, and not my nose hairs freeze. Yes I said nose hairs, I have nose hairs, I'm sure you do too.
I'm tired of the snow!
Breathe! Ok, I think I need a chill pill! Wrong choice of words there.
Anywho, on such wonderful cold weather, there's nothing better than a delicious creamy soup. With shrimp! And coconut milk! And shrimp, large shrimp. Did I mention it's cold here?
So, as you can see in the picture above my shrimp were quite big, because that's the kind of gal I am, I like my shrimp big, but don't let that stop you from making this soup. The little tiny shrimp that are precooked would be perfect in this yummy creamy soup. But aren't they purrty?
This soup is so amazing because it's about as easy as soups can get, but it's still one delicious and comforting soup.
Q: Why wouldn't the shrimp share his treasure?
A: Because he was a little shellfish.
If you're looking for more yummy soups, you've come to the right place. Try these out:
- Lemon Rice and Chicken Soup
- Lasagna Soup
- Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup
- Red Lentil and Chicken Soup
- Creamy Loaded Potato Soup
- Chicken and Dumplings
- Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup
If you try this recipe, please let us know! Leave a comment, rate it and tag a photo #jocooks on Instagram so we can see it. I always love to see what you guys come up with!
Brazilian Shrimp Soup
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 1 bell pepper chopped (I used a red one)
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup rice long-grain
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

- 1 lb medium shrimp shelled and cut in 1 inch pieces
- 1/4 tsp black pepper ground
- 3 tbsp lemon juice from 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup parsley fresh, chopped, for garnish
- In a large soup pot heat the olive oil over low heat. Add onion, bell pepper, garlic and cook stirring occasionally until the onion and pepper are soft. About 5 minutes.
- Add the rice, red pepper flakes, salt, tomatoes and water to the pot and bring a boil. Cook until the rice is almost done, about 10 minutes.
- Stir the coconut milk into the soup. Bring to a simmer and then stir in the shrimp. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is just done, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Stir in the black pepper, lemon juice, and parsley.

Things We Heart
Finding a balance between the selflessness & selfishness of motherhood.
It's a thin line
A Valentine to us....
Valentine's Day is always really special for Erin and I, we sort of think of it as T.W.H's birthday because it is always our "year-end" when we sit together and reassess where we are and where we want to move forward. This year we have some pretty exciting things ahead of us.... But before we get to that, let me catch you up on where we have been in case you were wondering.
Besides raising our kids this past year, Erin and I have been really trying to find ourselves, as far as getting "back" to the passionate creativity we used to thrive on. We couldn't focus on our personal passions too much while we were in the trenches of "The Baby Years" and while those years are THE BEST years, mothers can really loose themselves a little by immersing ourselves so completely in our families. We put everyone else first, as we should... But it is time to come up for air..... And boy are we coming!

I've planned on doing this already. My approach is to use wget to provide ftp/http access (compressed 56k/i386 and 64k/powerpc). The support should not be limited to just loading the base. Advanced machines have the need to be able to load the rescue/drivers over the network as well (this includes high-end i386 systems which have BIOS tftpboot capability). Of course, this is just wishlist stuff since we are missing the task selection GUI which is a critical item. I'm going to work on that, but I've got to finish pulling the rest of the powerpc boot-floppies release together. -- Matt Porter firstname.lastname@example.com This is Linux Country.

Anadrol 50 or any other Anadrol steroid loves being second best. It just does not like competition from Dianabol, which is presently considered as the king of all bodybuilding steroids. Proof of this is that if you stack the two, you will achieve the sum total positive effects of using just one steroid.
However, if you stack, say, Anadrol tablets with Trenbolone Acetate or Anavar, the Incredible Hulk cannot be far away. It's not a grand plan from the makers of Anadrol steroids. It's just the way the cookie crumbled.
Still, there are many advantages to being second best. For starters, some people prefer the second best over the first in line. These are the individuals who do not wish to bulk up too much.
And this is one of the reasons why Anadrol for sale has acquired its distinct position in the anabolic steroids criterion. The second reason is that when you buy Anadrol online, other people may be buying for a completely different reason. Anadrol steroids were first and foremost a treatment for anemia.
Later on, it was also discovered to maintain the lean mass of persons suffering from HIV. Without Anadrol steroids, people suffering from the disease will find it impossible to hold on to their muscles. Once this new role for Anadrol pills was discovered, it was only a matter of time before it achieved a resurgence in the bodybuilding world.
Welcome back, Anadrol tablets, say gym buddies. Medical findings love to crucify Anadrol 50 and the rest of the clan with extremely harsh side effects. But gym habitues tell a totally different story. Anadrol is a brand name for the generic steroid, Oxymetholone.
Like an embattled boxer, it has returned to the marketplace with an even stronger determination to stay at being number two. And like all steroids out there, Anadrol pills have side effects. For potential users, it's essential to get the word out there so they know what they are up against.
Yes, Anadrol pills aromatize, but not in the usual way that most anabolic steroids do. However, to trick the body away from converting male hormones into female hormones, users of Anadrol tablets only need to supplement with Letrozole. Hence, this side effect actually has a cure.
So let's proceed with other side effects. Toxicity of the liver is a biggie, but then most anabolic steroids do have this Achilles heel. The simple trick is to cycle the pill's usage around six to eight weeks.
For people with bad liver conditions already, however, it's definitely out of the question to be buying Anadrol for sale, or any anabolic steroid for that matter. Also, if you have a family history of male balding, Anadrol 50 and cohorts are not for you. People with heart or blood pressure issues are also enjoined to refrain from using Anadrol pills.
This is because the medication either increases or decreases the body's LDL or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol as well as HDL or high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. HDL is known universally as the good cholesterol. So imagine what happens if consuming Anadrol tablets keep flicking the switch on either LDL or HDL.
The ideal dose of Anadrol steroids for men is between 50 and 150 milligrams per day, and this is why Anadrol 50 comes in handy. For the ladies, though, Anadrol 50 is a pain because at this daily level, moderate virilization begins. This means that females can end up growing more hair in parts of their bodies other than their heads. Also, their shoulders can broaden considerably and their facial features can become more squarish. The solution?
Stick to 25 milligrams, ladies, or neatly divide the pill in half. That is unless the virilization process is part of your fitness goals. Just remember, some virilization effects may be permanent. If you can live with that, then you should be okay.
Whatever your purpose is to buy Anadrol online, never skip the part about consulting your physician regarding the second most powerful steroid. Every person is unique. For one, you may have certain ailments that make the Anadrol steroid just not right for you. Between you, Anadrol, and your doctor, your doctor knows best.
Due to its 17α-alkylated structure, Oxymetholone can make already pre-existent liver issues worse. Also, other known side effects are depression, insomnia, diarrhea, and jaundice. If you experience any of these unwanted results the first time you use Anadrol tablets, stop medicating immediately.
These signs are your best indicators that Anadrol pills don't cut it for you. Also, never, ever overdose on your intake. You just never know what can happen and worse, the effect could be irreversible. It's always a good idea to err on the side of caution.
It's amazing how the Anadrol steroid starts out as a cure for anemia, ends up being the bodybuilder's second choice, and becomes the savior of the HIV body wasting syndrome. Clearly, the Anadrol steroid has a rich history and being comfortable with its second choice position, it is here to stay.

Hope and help for triple-negative (TNBC) and other forms of hormone-negative breast cancer.

This Beautiful Day
I hesitated over my morning prayer today: Thank you for this beautiful day; help me to use it well. I looked out the window at the unending Iowa rain and thought, "How can I say this is beautiful?" This is dreary and a little scary. I am not thankful for it. Not. At. All. But then I realized that the beauty for which I give thanks is in the day itself—the people I cherish, the meaning of the work I do, the amazing resilience of my body, the fact that I am healthy right now. This is a prayer, after all, and not a weather report. So, I said it: Thank you for this beautiful day; help me to use it well.

cell position="1" usergroup="GRP_INITIATORS" label="Project Initiators....
cell position="2" usergroup="GRP_PROJECT_MANAGER" label="Project Manage....
cell position="1" usergroup="GRP_CONTRIBUTORS" label="Contributors" ....
I have snipped the end of the lines for display purposes. Drop the GRP_ from the name and that is your necessary group name. In this case, "Initiators", "Project Manager", "Contributors".
You have 2 options. Create a group called Initiators and populate it or you can rename the usergroup attribute to be whatever your group is called. For projects I created the groups. For applications, my application initators were the same as my projects 'Initiators'. So I changed the line:
cell position="1" usergroup="GRP_APPLICATION_INITIATOR" label="....
cell position="1" usergroup="GRP_INITIATORS" label="....
This allowed my users that were considered project Initiators, to be selected as application Initiators.
This is only necessary due to the, IMHO, serious oversight of allowing users to belong to only one group.
Note that I tried to just set all 3 groups to GRP_CONTRIBUTERS but there seems to be internal logic preventing this.
A corollary issue I ran into was that some of my users would be project initators on one project buy project managers on another. Or contributors on one and project managers on another. Since I can't have users belong to more than one group, This presents a problem. A work around I found, but that I am not really satisfied with, was to assign people to different groups at different levels of the org.
Our organization structure has three levels
- Corp
-- Local Business Unit
--- IT Operations
--- QA, etc
I can assign users to be Project managers at one level and contributors at another. They then show up in the project bubbles for each type. Note that this gets into sticky issues with permissions, hence why i don't like the solution.
I am also likely going to need to narrow the number of groups. I have a small enough team that some of the portfolio managers are going to be Project managers and contributors. I can use the org trick a bit but not if I have to manage 9 different groups.
Cant wait for office 14, probably the first place that will be fixed.

I am equal parts star struck and feeling like I have an old friend on the blog today (ok, let's be real, I'm like 90% star struck and 10% giddy that a long-time friend crush and role model is blessing this blog with her wisdom.) Lindsay has been on my rotation of blog-reads for as long as I have known about blogs and my appreciation for her has continued to grow as I have started attempting to school-from-home. She is mother to 9 children on earth, at least 6 of whom are school-aged. She is an incredibly inspiring writer, and has a beautiful devotion to the Saints, (which is evidenced by her many amazingly wonderful name choices for her beautiful children) and her approach to homeschooling (read on to see what I mean about that). If you've never read her blog, My Child I Love You, then you are missing out. Her blog manages to be adorable, entertaining and spiritually enriching almost every time you read it, and her photography skills are stellar. Or maybe her kids are just incredibly photogenic. I think it's both.
I honestly think I should read these questions daily for the rest of my life, so so good.
1: How have you handled pregnancy difficulties and homeschooling. How much expectation adjustment do you do for yourself and school time. What are some tips and tricks for dealing with morning sickness and home school.
I try to view our school year in a 12 month period adjusting each year according to morning sickness, when the new baby is due, and post-partum time. We "roughly" school year round basically going 6 weeks on and 1-2 weeks off. Sometimes, one week isn't enough for me to accomplish all the chores I've neglected during school time i.e organizing, sorting clothes, cleaning the garage. After nine years of homeschooling, this rhythm has been the most successful. At the beginning of August, I assess our family and adjust according to baby's arrival and morning sickness. If I know that I will be do in April, we hit school hard BEFORE the baby is born so we can go light AFTER the baby is born.
We do math year round. With that said, I adjust the "amount"of math depending upon which cycle of life we are currently experiencing. For the first three months after a baby is born, we do a slow and steady couple of math pages a day. Once I get my feet under me again, we return to the regular math period. We do just enough that they don't forget the lessons and also just enough that it doesn't overwhelm me when I am not sleeping much at night.
Regarding morning sickness, I have taught many lessons from the couch or will wait until John is home to teach. My stamina during the early months of pregnancy is ZERO so I need every ounce of will-power to teach effectively. Waiting until John is home for the subjects that require the most teaching allows me to focus solely on that task and not get so distracted with the non-school age kids. Mostly, I know this period is something I have to endure. John helps a ton during this time with checking math lessons and helping write papers.
We stress over and over that nothing is more important than human life. The focus of our family is always the smallest and their well-being. We try to do this beautifully so not to make their lives seem any less important just merely that our whole family must pitch in to help mama right now as she cares for the smallest, most vulnerable. I apologize to them A LOT for my face being smashed into the couch cushions during the months of morning sickness. Honestly, I think what drags mothers down the most is the guilt of being grumpy and short-patienced. If I can avoid grumpiness during this time, I have noticed that their attitude of service and compassion soars and my self-doubt lowers immensely.
As C.S. Lewis said, "We need to teach far fewer subjects far better." It is not the amount that we get down that matters. We have a very simple curriculum that we try to do very well and very thoroughly in the attempts to teach them to master the art of study.
We have to remember that the ups and downs of our days are just part of the whole picture. In any vocation, there are the highlights and there are those thing we take to the confessional. That is just part of the calling.
2: How do you handle interruptions from the littlest ones during your school time with the older ones. What are some tips and tricks to keeping them occupied for the maximum amount of school time.
The non-schooled kids are so use to our routine that they really just play during school hours really well. They spend most of the morning in our backyard. I feel as though we are at a stage that the interruptions can be handled pretty swift and effectively. Besides Math, most of the subjects haven't required huge blocks of time from me. I can introduce most lessons and each child can work independently after which allows me to address the little ones requests. Most days, I do feel like I am juggling with many balls in the air. Most days, I can keep the balls going, but there certainly are days that most balls fall to the ground. It isn't the norm though. Each day certainly feels like I am running a race and I just have to keep moving. I don't think it is accurate for most temperaments that the days going seamless and each schedule is followed perfectly. The years that were hardest were those I over structured. You have to allow for some elastic in your day as a mother.
The most challenging for me is the baby stage. Our babies are pretty grumpy so I save the subjects that need my attention most to when the baby is sleeping during her morning nap. While she is up, I focus on the subjects that allow me to teach with a baby in my arms i.e. Circle time, current events, morning prayer, handwriting.
My spiritual director told me to try to spend ten minutes FIRST thing in the morning with each child. The time invested first thing in the morning can set the tone and eliminate that guilt that they've been shoved aside all day because of schooling. The time spent with them can be very simple. I try to hold one of the littles during morning prayer on my lap. I try to bathe them also each morning and look at that time as our time together. Damaris loves her morning bath and putting "curl cream'' in her hair after bath. We have our little games during bath time that they love. I make it a point to read to the little ones every day, several times a day. This is usually accomplished right before nap and right before bed at night. Every nap and night, Damaris (3) pretends I am a horse. She rides on my back around the room twice. I crawl on all fours and listen to her squeals of delight. We stop to look in the mirror each time and say the same things every time. She loves that time. Don't neglect how much the little things mean to them. I would encourage you to develop these small wisps of love with each child that they look forward to in your days together.
3: What are your top 3 favorite resources of all time for home schooling?
1. Classical Conversations
2. Phonetic Zoo Spelling
3. Math-U-See
4: What is one thing (or many things) you wish you hadn't done in your first years of home schooling?
It is so important to remember that this is their FIRST time learning material that you've known for years. It is all new to them. When we started homeschooling, I told my mother-in-law we were going to take it year by year. She homeschooled for many years and is such a wise resource. She encouraged me to change my mindset to a more permanent one because judging if we are called to homeschool after our first year or a bad year might not be an accurate assessment. It could simply have been just a bad year. Like most of life's new adventures, the first years provide many difficult learning lessons. Imagine if you judged your ability to be a good mother based on your first year of mothering. Imagine if a doctor based his competency as a physician based on his first years of practicing. No. As the years go on, you learn more and more. You learn what is essential. You can learn what needs to change and what doesn't. I have tried to have an open heart to suggestion and simplicity. Ultimately, aren't we all after the heart of our child? Aren't we spending this time together to stay close as we journey our way towards heaven together? Like most things, it gets better with time. If you are just beginning, try to do simple very well.
Also, NEVER EVER make your husband the problem to your homeschooling anxieties. When we were first homeschooling, I asked my seasoned friend if we could meet to discuss curriculum. The first thing she asked me was, "How does John feel about homeschooling?" We talked at length about how important it is for me and him to be on the same page regarding homeschooling. It is not an easy undertaking and you will need your husbands FULL support when the going gets tough. She encouraged me to also remember that we took vows FIRST to our husbands: to love, honor, and cherish them. I must remember that if He is being kicked to the curb BECAUSE of HOMESCHOOLING, something needs to change, as I think any academic accomplishments you may achieve will be negated by a struggling marriage.
My friend also suggested to"Fly under the radar." Meaning, do not go around telling everyone you are homeschooling. Don't announce it everywhere. Don't explain it everywhere. Don't complain about it. Don't make excuses about this or that that doesn't get done "because you are homeschooling." Just do it. If someone asks what grades the kids are in, tell them their grade.
My aunt (who homeschooled for about 30 years) said never be afraid to seek outside help for a child who is struggling beyond your capabilities. It is not a measure of failure, you simply need further assistance. Lillie went to speech at the local public school for a couple years. It was wonderful for her and her speech teacher previously homeschooled her own children, it was a good fit.
5: With all of the craziness of homeschooling and how much demand there is on moms physically, mentally and emotionally during the day, what are some tips for making sure your spouse and your marriage isn't getting overlooked?
Like I said above, NEVER make your husband the problem. We took vows to them first. We didn't take vows to homeschool. John thrives on us being on the same page, he would crumble if I ever made him the problem. He knows how stressful being a mother is and teaching all day. I have cried many times to him, BUT I NEVER make him the problem. For us, that mentality accomplishes much. He is my superman. For him, it is not how much I do for him, but more of what I don't do to HIM. Don't blame him. Don't dump on his efforts. Don't accuse him of not helping. Don't nag him to help out more. John loves to run. I encourage him to run everyday and that helps him help me.
Before we were married, we knew together we could accomplish more for Christ and His Church than if we were apart. We have to have a missionary zeal inside our homes. We have to have sacrificial hearts to keep giving everyday. Homeschooling is a vocation. It is a tool that God uses to lead ourselves and others closer to his heart. Our marriage must reflect that zeal and missionary spirit. When we start counting the cost, we are losing our focus of heaven and our baptismal calling to go out to all the world and spread the good news.
If you find yourself turning inward and getting overwhelmed, I have found it helpful to read the lives of the missionary saints i.e. Issac Jogues, Fr. Kapaun, Maximillian Kolbe, St. Therese. Their hearts yearned for Christ. Homeschooling is our mission field, FIRST: for our own sanctity, SECOND: For our marriage and our domestic church, THIRD: for our children and their souls, FOURTH: the rest of humanity.
Thank you so much to Lindsay, I am thoroughly inspired!!

The water thrashes about as it runs down the way. The crashing of the rapids gives no wake to silence while the sun occasionally peaks through the canopy of hemlocks above. He stands there in the middle of the swift moving stream. He is like the moon hanging in the sky; still and quiet as he sends his gaze down into the water. He causes me pause while I draw a parallel of how God keeps watch over His creation below. He is steady, still and aware.
If I didn't guess his trade by the obvious fishing poles, I'd think him a bit silly sight in his over-sized getup. His pants and his boots held onto him by two large suspenders and he proudly wears a floppy cap, all the rage with the other trout fishermen his species. He looks like he might play the part of a clean cut desk man and I suspect he has traded his corporate crown for the floppy cap if only for this one quiet day of reprieve.
In one fluid and smooth motion, he raises his rod in one hand and holds his line in the other while he flings the rod back and then forward, back and then forward, back and then forward, back and then forward. With each back and forward move, I hear the line whip and run, whip and run, whip and run, whip and run. I watch the misty spray spring from his action and it showcases a small rainbow when the sun hits it just right. Again, I pause and reflect on the symbolic nature of the rainbow and God's promises.
For a few sacred moments, he is at peace with his world and even I have caught a little peace just by being present in his world. He hears no other sound except the gushing water and the line; whip and run. With each new cast, he throws an old care. His mind relaxes under the circumstances he finds himself in and as he wades deeper into the cool water his body relaxes, too. I bet he wouldn't care if he didn't land a fish on the other end of his line. He already caught what he was fishing for anyway and a fish would be double the pleasure.
I like to watch him. He doesn't know that I do and I would never intend to intrude on his great big world of paradise. Nor would I ever intend to profit from his bliss but joy is contagious and one cannot help but to fall into his love of the outdoors, the cool waters, the chance at a catch, his sacred spot and the peace that ensues. I don't see this as dishonest gain on my part, taking something that was not mine to take, but simply guilty by association of the same mountain stream territory on this beautiful fall day. No, no shame at all on my part. I just want to hang out and watch him and I hope that I can convey his world with my words. If so, he will have given me the gift of a tranquil moment that I will recall each time I open the pages of my journal and read the entry entitled "The Trout Fisherman…Peace Like a River".

Do you have plans for a new book?
Yes, but I haven't started writing it yet. I plan to make it more fantasy than science fiction, against a historical fiction backdrop. It will also be a middle-grade novel, possibly with more of an appeal to girls than Yaakov the Pirate Hunter had.
What inspired you to write your first book?
My children and I used to have a long drive to school every morning. We tried to make those trips interesting by telling stories. Each child got a turn to pick a story idea, and I would invent and tell a story about that idea, on the spot. One morning, the second oldest of our boys wanted a story about ten very tall robots. I made up an adventure story about a bunch of robots and their owner, and actually told it over two morning trips to school. The story basically involved characters, but I thought it would be more enjoyable for kids if the story centered on children. Since children usually don't own big, expensive machines like robots, I made it a family adventure in which the parents own a bunch of robots and the children sometimes mess around with them. I wrote a short story for a course on writing for children, and my instructor suggested that the ending leave some room for continuing the story. Later, I decided to expand the story into a full-length novel.
What book are you reading now?
Around the World in Eighty Days, by Jules Verne. I'm reading it to one of my sons. We're enjoying it immensely. It's a lot of fun, and it's science fiction in the classical sense: the use of fiction as a vehicle to teach science. Verne's primary goal in writing science fiction was science education. That goal gets lost sometimes in some of the sci-fi material that gets written these days, but it's a good one to keep in mind. Education was the defining characteristic of the science fiction genre.
Are there any authors who have grasped your interest lately and why?
Laura Ruby and Tony DiTerLizzi are two recent finds. Their children's works are very engaging. We discovered Ruby's The Wall and the Wing last summer. Our two eldest children called it their favorite novel of all time, and my wife and I were very impressed by it. Ruby combined a very clever and complex plot with intriguing storytelling and remarkably funny humor. Parts of it had me laughing out loud. Its sequel, The Chaos King, had a similar effect on me. DiTerLizzi's latest novel, The Search for WondLa, is a brilliant piece of work. The storytelling is gripping, and the book is very hard to put down once you've picked it up. It's a tale that keeps the reader guessing until the very end, and then leaves the reader begging for more. The book jacket says that it's only the first of a trilogy, and I'm looking forward to the sequels.
What is your biggest challenge when it comes to your writing?
The biggest challenge is always getting started. Once I've overcome that initial hurdle, and actually sat down to write, a story will often start flowing and almost write itself.
Do you have any advice for other writers?
Throw all negativity and nay-saying out of your life and just do it. Don't listen to any of the cynics, and forget about your own worries. If writing is a passion and something that you really want to do, don't let anything stand in your way.
Where can your readers follow you?
Follow me at my blog: http://wyckoffwonders.blogspot.com. It's still quite new, but I hope to start posting to it more often.
You can also follow me or contact me on Goodreads.

Meeting Marcelo Souza for the first time, it would be easy to walk past him in the street. A muscly, tattooed man, his appearance has little in common with the outrageous - and occasionally horrific - glamour of his drag act, Suzy Brasil. Suzy can be found every night of the week from Wednesday to Sunday gracing the stages of clubs Galeria Café, Boate 1140 and Sinônimo where her acerbic wit and sublime dress sense entertain the crowds. Currently preparing for carnival, arguably the biggest drag act of them all, Marcelo talked us through life as Suzy on and off the stage.
How did you create the character of Suzy Brasil?
I've been Suzy Brasil for 18 years now. It started when I was about 17, when I used to have parties with my friends and I would always dress as a woman. Somebody baptised my character Jaqueline Fonté, but then she became Suzy Brasil, because Suzy is a name people here give to their dogs, and I chose Brasil because she is a bit of mess and Brasil is a bit of a mess, too.
Describe Suzy's personality...
She's an ugly woman who thinks she's beautiful, and she wears the kind of clothes which only beautiful women wear. She speaks about a lot of things which affect the gay community, like getting acceptance from your family, discovering your sexuality, or not getting a job because of being gay. These are all things which the audience can relate to because it touches their lives.
Is that why Suzy is so well-loved on the gay scene?
I think so, I pick up on things I've heard people actually say and then use them in the act, but it's all good fun. If people are at a nightclub, drinking, laughing, they don't want something heavy or that is delivered in a boring way.
Is there still a lot of homophobia in Rio?
Things are a lot better than they used to be. Now there are gay characters in novelas (Brazilian soap operas) for example, showing a reality that a lot of people just didn't know about before. It can still be difficult for someone very visibly gay to get a job. Rio is a big gay holiday destination, but here the men have a very macho image to live up to. If you go to Lapa or Farme do Amoedo you will see gays holding hands, but at the same time, some gay men have been attacked coming off the beach. There is still a long way to go, but in my opinion Rio is more tolerant than São Paulo.
How long does it take you to turn into Suzy Brasil?
I don't shave my eyebrows off or anything like that, because I want to look like a man the rest of the time. I do all my own make-up and costumes, and it usually takes at least an hour to get ready if I want things to be perfect. I usually have a beer before I go on stage, just to get into the same mood as the crowd. Once I've put that wig on, I can feel myself turning into a different person. Suzy is a lot more sociable than I am, and a lot more tolerant!
What or who inspires her look?
I have taken some influences from old film stars and people like Madonna, but most of the time I get my ideas from Brazilian stars, people like the Brazilian TV presenter Xuxa.
What will you be doing for carnival?
I always parade as Suzy with the samba school Unidos da Tijuca, and I've got a special costume lined up this year. It's something I look forward to doing the whole year. It's funny, because during carnival there are a lot of heterosexual men dressed up as women. I think those guys wait all year too, for a chance to show their feminine side. We drag artists call them "banda das piranhas" (piranha is a rude Portuguese word for an unattractive woman). If someone is dressed as an unconvincing woman, we always say "go and join the banda das piranhas!"
Where are the best places to go during carnival?
The area around Campo do Santana, close to Central, is good, as is the Rainbow Kiosk near Copacabana Palace. Banda de Ipanema always has a good atmosphere, and a club called Gafieira Elite (Rua Frei Caneca 4, Centro (
Have you always liked dressing up as a woman?
When I was a child, I never liked doing typical boys things like playing football in the street, I preferred playing with my Mum's make-up. I've never wanted to be a woman however; in my case it's about performance.
Does everyone in your life know that Marcelo is also Suzy Brasil?
I'm also a biology teacher, and I used to teach in a prison before Suzy was in the newspaper Extra, with a photo of me as Marcelo, and I decided to give up in case there were any repercussions. Most of my students know I'm Suzy and they love it. My mother has been to see my shows and she really enjoyed it, but I didn't. Suzy is very rude, and I worried about what she was going to think!
Is there a future for Suzy as the star of her own television show?
She was interviewed on Jo Soares (Brazilian chat show) and I've done quite a few other TV shows as Suzy too. Anyone who says they don't want to be on TV is a liar. I think some people see sketches of Suzy's on youtube and think it's too outrageous for TV, although I always adapt the show for the audience. I'm writing a play at the moment, so let's see what the future holds.

A taste of California is now just down the road at a brand new winery. Whiz's Courtney Wheaton has more from Thornville.
Buckeye Lake Winery recently opened its doors to the public and owners of the winery, Tracy and Laura Higginbotham say business is strong and steady.
"We've had 4,000 people visit our property in the past four days and expectations have certainly been exceeded. We're trying to source local and we're trying to buy local.. were trying to keep money in the local community," said The Higginbothams.
It took two years of planning to open the winery. Prior to venturing to own and operate their own winery the Higginbothams worked for clients in the wine industries in California and learned as much as they could about the business before setting up shop in Tracy's hometown. The Higginbothams prefer dry wines and encourage guest to come and sample.
"At the winery they have two different options for wine tasting. They have their choice of trying three or they can try all six for $12. They get their wine from Napa Valley and next year they'll have an addition of an Ohio sweet wine," said Reporter, Courtney Wheaton.
In the upcoming year they plan to work with local farmers and eventually they'll have their own vineyard where they will produce a home brew. California wines will always be their base because it fits their taste profile. Along with wine, food is an important aspect of their business and a retired chef for the Governors' Office created the gourmet menu.
"The chef here is wonderful about trying to get as many local distributors as we can here because it's good for the community and the fresher the product the better the product, " said Retired Chef, June McCarthy. Swen Hunt is the head Chef of Buckeye Lake Winery.
People who have visited the winery say that they are pleased to have a new place to visit on the lake.
"We've been waiting a year for it to open… it's fabulous.. It's a great place for people my age to come and have a nice glass of wine, " said Visitor, Kathleen Poulton.
If you are interested in visiting Buckeye Lake Winery you can come by boat service for $10 a person or drive up on land. At the venue you will hear local music, see a lake view and plenty of friends and family gathering for a glass of wine.

Fiery 'More Dangerous Than Hitler'?! Tucker Battles Anti-Trump Protester
Maxine Waters on Trump's Cabinet: They're a 'Bunch of Scumbags'
Breaking News?! NBC Reports Trump Presidency Will Not Be Shortest Ever
Tucker Carlson faced off tonight with a protest organizer who's trying to drive President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence from power.
Sunsara Taylor, with "Refuse Fascism," said that Trump and Pence are operating out of "Hitler's playbook" and her group is refusing to accept a "fascist America."
"This is a danger to humanity. And yes, it's in its early stages, but people need to rise up and stop it before it is too late," Taylor said.
Tucker argued that if she truly believed Trump was like Hitler, then she wouldn't be appearing on a television show, she'd be committing acts of violence.
Taylor doubled down on the Hitler comparison, noting that Trump controls the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world.
"He is more dangerous than Hitler ever could have been," she said. "I'm calling for mass political protest and resistance."
Tucker pressed her to explain what she's going to do other than "jump around in the street with a sign in your hand."
"This is silly," Tucker said. "You don't oppose fascism with political resistance. But whatever. You may not know that."
Watch the heated back-and-forth above, and let us know what you think in the comments.

I have a thing for clouds at the moment. I'm totally in love with them. Some days they're so freaking beautiful I have to look away. I'll be driving around in the car looking at them, swearing at them in disbelief, wondering how such things could exist. So the cloud works of Dutch artist Berndnaut Smilde obviously fascinate me. He has teamed up with Harper's Bazaar magazine to photograph famous fashion designers with his clouds.
The photographer Simon Procter captured the cloud/fashion designer project for Harper's Bazaar..
Fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld with the Berndnaut Smilde cloud.
Israeli fashion design Alber Elbaz and the cloud.
Fashion designer Donatella Versace with the Berndnaut Smilde cloud.
The Dolce & Gabbana design duo. Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce with a cloud.
Berndnaut Smilde says..
The presence of the cloud is almost like a personality as it takes on a different shape and size each time depending on what the space needs. Having an actual human there was like bringing two personalities together – it was interesting to see how each designer reacted to the cloud.'

Birthdays for the Deadby Stuart MacBride
- Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers (January 1, 2012)
About the Book . . .
Detective Constable Ash Henderson has a dark secret! Five years ago his daughter, Rebecca, went missing on the eve of her thirteenth birthday. A year later the first card arrived: homemade, with a Polaroid picture stuck to the front -- Rebecca, strapped to a chair, gagged and terrified. Every year another card: each one worse than the last. The tabloids call him The Birthday Boy. He's been snatching girls for twelve years, always in the run-up to their thirteenth birthday, sending the families his homemade cards showing their daughters being slowly tortured to death. But Ash hasn't told anyone about Rebecca's birthday cards -- they all think she's just run away from home -- because if anyone finds out, he'll be taken off the investigation. And he's sacrificed too much to give up before his daughter's killer gets what he deserves!
About the Author . . .
Stuart MacBride is the author of several bestselling novels featuring DS Logan McRae, including Shatter the Bones, which reached No. 1 in the Sunday Times bestseller list. The McRae novels have won him the CWA's Dagger in the Library, the Barry Award for Best Debut Novel, and Best Breakthrough Author at the ITV3 crime thriller awards. Stuart's other works include Halfhead, a near-future thriller, Sawbones, a novella aimed at adult emergent readers, and several short stories. He lives in the north-east of Scotland with his wife, Fiona and cat, Grendel.
It's every parent's worst nightmare. A serial killer is abducting girls just prior to their thirteenth birthdays, killing them, and then sending their parents pictures of the torture and murder every year on their birthday. Detective Constable Ash Henderson doesn't just want to solve the mystery; he wants to find the body of his daughter. Unfortunately, time does not seem to be on his side, as his younger daughter is approaching her thirteenth birthday.
First, just let me say that readers who are offended by graphic violence and profanity will probably not finish this book. It is a gritty, disturbing novel about children being tortured and murdered; not a cozy mystery, at all. But if you can find your way past this, it is a novel that will keep you awake until you have finished it, and then it may keep you awake another night, just for good measure.

Literature and Composition
The primary goal of the sixth- through eighth-grade courses is to begin and continue to generate enthusiasm for and appreciation of literature. To that end the students are presented with examples of noble, heroic characters and gripping narratives that teach the concepts of plot, characterization, setting, theme, point of view, mood, allegory and symbol. The students are encouraged to read carefully and to learn to argue from the text in the beginning phases of developing seminar skills. They increase their vocabulary by studying and using words from the texts. In addition to reading fine pieces of literary fiction, the students spend time developing an appreciation for and an ability to read and memorize poetry. This portion of the course exposes the students to many different types of poetry and they learn the meaning of various poetic terms, including rhythm, meter, rhyme, dialect, personification, alliteration, metaphor, simile, narrative ballads and free verse. The students are required to memorize a poem for performance in order to facilitate their working understanding of these poetic terms.
Sixth grade reading list: The Westing Game, Endurance: Shakleton's Incredible Voyage, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
Seventh grade reading list: The Wind in the Willows, Shane, Harriet Tubman: Conductor on the Underground Railroad, Johnny Tremain, Poetry.
Eighth grade reading list: Beowulf, The Hobbit, A Christmas Carol, King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table, The Miracle Worker, Poetry.
The sixth-grade composition component focuses upon the study of words. The year begins with an extensive study of Latin and Greek roots and their function in the English lexicon. This study is observation-based: the students explore the dictionary for definition patterns and letter clusters, discovering common roots and derivative words along the way. The students are coached in using their growing knowledge of Latin and Greek roots to improve spelling and vocabulary.
As the year progresses, the course moves into a study of the parts of speech. The students explore the functions of nouns, verbs, adverbs, and adjectives and practice in using them effectively in their own writing. Building upon this base, the course then moves into a creative writing unit. The students learn about and practice using writing techniques such as sensory imagery, simile and metaphor, and personification. They are also instructed in skills such as summary writing and narrative construction. The course culminates in the students applying the writing skills they have practiced in composing a short story of their own. As grammar and mechanics are extensively covered in the seventh and eighth grade years, they do not take a central focus in the 6th grade year. They are, however, taught as needed in order to help the students progress in their ability to write coherently.
The seventh-grade composition component begins with instruction in identifying the parts of speech and culminates in paragraph writing. Seventh grade lays important foundations of mechanics (commas, apostrophes, end marks), sentence parts (subjects, predicates, complements and modifiers, including prepositional phrases) and sentence errors (run- ons, fragments, comma splices). They work with both simple sentences (including compound subjects and predicates) and compound sentences. The students learn this grammar with the goal of writing a coherent paragraph of 150-200 words.
Intellectually, the seventh-grade student is ready to understand the importance of unity in grouping ideas and thoughts. The paragraph models the form of the essay, which they will later learn, including set-up sentences, topic sentence, supporting details and a conclusion that restates the topic sentence. The students are introduced to the elements of limitation of the subject and specification of the predicate of the topic sentence. Coherence in the supporting sentences is also emphasized.
The students are also introduced to brainstorming, outlining and other skills to facilitate the marriage of grammar to writing. With the development of these skills, they begin to understand the importance of using the best possible examples to defend a claim and learn how to select and present those examples in such a way as to actually defend the claim they make in their topic sentences.
The eighth-grade composition component in the first semester reviews grammar from parts of speech and parts of a sentence through prepositional phrases, then moves into verbal and appositive phrases and subordinate clauses (adjective, adverb, and noun). With that in place, the students are introduced to complex and compound-complex sentences. They are taught to punctuate appropriately. In second semester the correct usage of verbs, agreement and the correct usage of modifiers are covered.
While the students are introduced to these principles in the seventh grade, the eighth grade writing program focuses on refining all aspects of the paragraph form in preparation for the five-paragraph essay in ninth grade, continuing limitation in the subject and specificity in the predicate of the topic sentence as well as coherence in the supporting sentences.

Research In Motion will soon be releasing its first fleet of BlackBerry 10 smartphones at the beginning of 2013. The past marketing for BlackBerry has been anything but spectacular over the years. RIM really just hasn't had that good of persuasive skills.
Should RIM take notes from Samsung? The company will be advertising the Galaxy S3 in an ad where it's pitted against the iPhone 5. While the ad does show how the device is better than the iPhone 5 in some respects, it also includes S3-only features. It then fails to list iPhone 5-only features.
It's a bit of a dirty trick to make the Galaxy S3 seem like it's more feature-rich than the iPhone 5. Should RIM go guns blazing with provocative marketing like this for BlackBerry 10? Check out the full ad below and let us know in the comments!

The way in which we connect to others is less important than the connection itself. We all need each other in order to create the future we desire.Thinking you can go it alone is foolhardy at best. If you feel as though you having nothing to offer your connections you could not possibly be more incorrect. Your words matter. Whether written or spoken what you think and how you feel about things is important. The only time they are not important is when you decide not to use them. Ideas that are not considered are the ones that are never heard.
Seek out others and let your words and ideas be heard. Give more service than is required and you will receive tenfold!

My favorite character was the lepperchaun because he looks nice, cute, and weird. I like the illustrations because the leprechaun is the only one in color in the book. As I read this book it reminded me that leprchauns can really lie to everybody in the whole world. I liked this book because the leprechaun is funny and weird.
I recommend this book to 3 graders and 2 graders because they would understand the book. You should read this book in March to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.


text: The period of time when the true Church no longer existed on earth is called the Great Apostasy. (Gospel Principles, Lesson 16: The Church of Jesus Christ in Former Times) Priesthood authority was restored to the earth by Jesus Christ through the prophet Joseph Smith. That has a lot of big words. What does it mean? Pretend that this building (Show the simple block building without the "Authority/Priesthood" block) represents the Church as Jesus organized it when he was on the earth. The church cannot be organized correctly without the priesthood (add the "Authority/Priesthood" block). The church must be "built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone" (Ephesians 2:20). If the priesthood is gone, the church is not built the way Heavenly Father wants it to be organized. After Jesus returned to Heaven, wicked people tried to destroy the church. Many people changed the way the church was organized. (Move the blocks around) People taught their own ideas instead of Heavenly Father's. Jesus's Apostles were killed. The perfect church Jesus organized was broken. (Knock the block tower over) The priesthood was finally taken from the earth because the people were so wicked. (Find "Authority/Priesthood" block and take it back.) Many people tried to rebuild Jesus's church, but they couldn't build it just right. Without the priesthood, the church can't be built correctly. (Build a building without the "Authority Priesthood" block.) People lived a long time without the priesthood. They forgot how much Heavenly Father loves us. They forgot and changed His commandments. They changed Heavenly Father's ordinances, like baptism and the sacrament. They even forgot why we came to earth. People were very confused. Heavenly Father knew the Great Apostasy would happen, and He prepared a way for the gospel to be restored — He prepared a way to rebuild His church correctly. When he was 14 years old, Joseph Smith asked Heavenly Father which church he should join. The Savior told him not to join any church because the true Church was not on the earth. Jesus told Joseph that that he would help organize the true church again. John the Baptist came in 1829 to ordain Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery to the Aaronic Priesthood (see D&C 13; D&C 27:8). Later, Jesus' Apostles Peter, James, and John, gave Joseph and Oliver the Melchizedek Priesthood (see D&C 27:12–13). Through this Restoration the priesthood was returned to the earth! (Build the tower correctly, with the "Authority/Priesthood" block) The church was organized again like Heavenly Father wants it. Heavenly Father has promised us that since the church has been restored, it will never be destroyed again (Daniel 2:44). (see Gospel Principles, Lesson 16: The Church of Jesus Christ in Former Times and Gospel Principles, Lesson 17: The Church of Jesus Christ Today) ** This would be an especially effective object lesson if when you removed the "Priesthood Authority" block the structure collapsed on its own. — Jenny ** ** You may also want to consider labelling some of the other blocks "apostles" or "seventies" or whaveter if you are using this lesson to teach the offices of the priesthood. — Jenny**

Quick Facts
- Location:
- Harpers Ferry, WV
- Significance:
- Site of the last stand of abolitionist John Brown in his 1859 assault upon slavery at Harpers Ferry
- Designation:
- National Park, National Register of Historic Places, HABS/HAER/HALS
- No
The structure we now call John Brown's Fort was erected in 1848 as the Armory's fire engine and guard house. The building was described in a June 30, 1848, Armory report: "An engine and guard-house, 35½ x 24 feet, one story brick, covered with slate, and having copper gutters and down spouts, has been constructed, and is now occupied." It was in this building that John Brown and several of his followers barricaded themselves during the final hours of their ill-fated raid of October 16, 17, and 18, 1859.
John Brown's Fort, as the structure became known, was the only Armory building to escape destruction during the Civil War. In 1891, the fort was sold, dismantled and transported to Chicago where it was displayed a short distance from The World's Columbian Exposition. The building, attracting only 11 visitors in ten days, was closed, dismantled again and left on a vacant lot.
In 1894, Washington, D.C. journalist Kate Field, who had a keen interest in preserving memorabilia of John Brown, spearheaded a campaign to return the fort to Harpers Ferry. Local resident Alexander Murphy made five acres available to Miss Field, and the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad offered to ship the disassembled fort to Harpers Ferry free of charge. In 1895, John Brown's Fort was rebuilt on the Murphy Farm about three miles outside of town on a bluff overlooking the Shenandoah River.
In 1903, Storer College began their own fundraising drive to acquire the structure. In 1909, on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of John Brown's Raid, the building was purchased and moved to the Storer College campus on Camp Hill in Harpers Ferry.
Acquired by the National Park Service in 1960, the building was moved back to the Lower Town in 1968. Because the fort's original site was covered with a railroad embankment in 1894, the building now sits about 150 feet east of its original location.

The province's Special Investigations Unit has cleared two Toronto police officers in the shooting of two people, one fatally, at the Caribbean Carnival parade in Toronto on July 30.
Kevin Murray, 30, was shot dead and 21-year-old Megan Martin, an innocent participant in the parade, was shot and injured by police in the melee.
SIU director Ian Scott, although declaring the police shooting of an innocent victim a "great tragedy," said he found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing on the part of the two officers.
The events unfolded in the early evening on Lake Shore Blvd. W. when Murray and another person got into a fight with another man.
A person began recording the fight on his digital camera and Murray and his friend turned to attack him, the SIU said.
At this point, witnesses reported hearing between two and four gun shots.
A number of witnesses reported seeing a gun in Murray's waistband and then saw him with a gun in his right hand, chasing the photographer.
Two police officers ran westbound on the north side of the street and saw the fight in progress.
The officers shouted at all three to get down on the ground, but they refused, the SIU said.
The SIU said Murray and his friend ran toward the two officers and Murray refused repeated commands to drop his weapon and get down on the ground.
When he pointed his gun at one of the officers, both police officers fired at Murray, killing him.
Martin had nothing to do with the initial fight or the fight with the photographer, the SIU said. She was participating in the parade and walking along the route with two of her friends.
She became aware of the commotion, turned left and fell to the ground, at first not knowing why she was in pain.
She was taken to St. Michael's Hospital, where it was learned she had been struck in the centre of the lower back by one of the bullets fired from a police officer's gun. She suffered severe internal injuries. It's expect she has a lengthy recovery ahead of her.
Ian Scott, director of the SIU, said both officers had the lawful authority to use lethal force.
"Mr. Murray represented an imminent threat to not only the subject officers but other people in the immediate vicinity," Scott said in a news release. He said the officer had the lawful authority to shoot Murray in self-defence and his partner also had authority to shoot because Murray was a threat to the first officer and to others in the area.
The fact that an innocent person was struck is a "great tragedy," Scott said.
"However, given the imminent threat that Mr. Murray represented, I am of the view that the subject officers' discharges were justified."
The SIU assigned six investigators and three forensic investigators to investigate the circumstances.
Two officers were designated as subject officers. They voluntarily consented to be interviewed by SIU investigators. Seven officers were designated as witness officers. Six of these officers were interviewed by the SIU.
The seventh officer's notebook entries were used in place of an interview. Twenty-eight civilian witnesses were identified and interviewed.
Video recordings from civilian witnesses were obtained and reviewed.
The SIU is an arm's length agency that investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault.

Chapter 147: "Poison (2)"
Covered from head to toe in blood and various remnants of body parts, Mo Qian Yuan stood stunned, face twisted in a grimace. His mind went blank, and all was quiet, the people who witnessed the gruesome scene were all shocked beyond words.
Mo Qian Yuan forced down the bile threatening to rush up his throat, and tried his best to maintain his composure. He raised his sleeve to wipe off his face, and ordered the Rui Lin Army guards: "Clear up the area immediately, and check on the man's background."
The Rui Lin Army guards immediately went the task, fast and efficient, bringing order back to the street. With shouts of gratitude from the people, Mo Qian Yuan went back to the Lin Palace, covered in the gory mess.
The moment he stepped through the door, Mo Qian Yuan met Jun Wu Xie who was on her way out.
"…………" A single syllable uttered and he was rewarded with "Scram", before he could say more, Jun Wu Xie had turned, and headed back into the house.
"Hey, wait!" Mo Qian Yuan felt that today's encounter was rather strange, and had wanted to tell Jun Wu Xie about it, but was brushed away so coldly.
"Wash up before you come see me." Jun Wu Xie blurted indifferently and disappeared from his sight.
"………" Mo Qian Yuan felt so small…..
He had stepped out happily this morning for his daily appearance to the people, and ended up with his face splattered with gore. He just stepped into the Lin Palace and without a single word of concern, he was slapped with "scram", and then avoided….. He must be the saddest Crown Prince ever….. !
He washed himself thoroughly, Mo Qian Yuan was disgusted. After a good scrubbing, he decided he was smelling better and proceeded to Jun Wu Xie's courtyard. She was sitting by the lotus pond, an old book in hand, reading intently.
Hearing Mo Qian Yuan's footsteps, Jun Wu Xie looked up.
"Stay away from me." Jun Wu Xie threw a cold glance at Mo Qian Yuan, detecting a trace of the smell of blood on him.
"…………." Mo Qian Yuan's heart shattered, as he saw the look of disdain in her eye. He sniffed himself, took a few steps back, judged it to be a suitable distance away, then he was finally allowed to finish his sentence. "I met with a strange encounter today."
"Speak." Jun Wu Xie lowered her head over her book, while listening to Mo Qian Fei. She somehow felt her red level spirit was growing a little too fast, within two months, she felt like she could touch the door to bringing her spirit to level orange. It was a little too fast and it pays to be careful.
"Today started normal. I was touring the streets till I got to Hua Yun Street, a lunatic suddenly lunged into the crowd. His body was unusually bloated and not long after, he exploded." Mo Qian Yuan related to her.
Jun Wu Xie jerked up and looked at Mo Qian Yuan. "Did you say he exploded?"
Spontaneous explosion, that was what happened to Lin Yue Yang!
"It was slightly different from Official Lin's incident. I was standing right beside him. When he exploded, I was covered all over in…..cough, but I didn't feel anything else, and I did not lose my strength." Mo Qian Yuan knew Jun Wu Xie's suspicion, he found it fishy as well. But in the case of Lin Yue Yang's explosion, its effects on the surrounding people as Jun Xian mentioned, was different with the one he encountered today.
Jun Wu Xie knitted her brows, "Come."
