May 6, 2016
Tallahassee, FL-December 7, 2012
Several Tallahassee Firefighters are being called heroes after being credited with saving a man's life.
Back in May, firefighters say they battled through intense heat and heavy smoke inside of a home on Cloudland Drive where a man was trapped inside.
"We crawled into him and we found him there barely trying to breath," says Tallahassee Firefighter, Nick Peppard.
The man firefighters are credited with saving is FAMU Professor Charles Smith.
Peppard says he and Captain Buddy Harvey brought the unconscious Smith outside to safety. Now the men and three other Tallahassee firefighters who were on scene that day are being honored for their heroics.
"And say to not only these gentlemen and the other ones who came in, and the future firefighters how blessed and fortunate that I feel and my father feel for being in a town that we have not only such trained professionals but compassionate professionals," says Shauna Smith, professor Smith's daughter.
Peppard and Harvey were both given the medal of bravery. It's the department's second highest honor. It's an honor that's been bestowed on just two others besides them.
"We're just doing that job that we signed up to do. It's a calling it's a profession, but this is what we train for," says Peppard.
The other firefighters honored at the ceremony were Mike Hadden, Lt. Blake Register and Brenden Rudy. They were honored with the Tallahassee Fire Department's Life Saving Award.
Smith suffered smoke damage to his lungs from the fire. But firefighters say they expect him to make a full recovery.

These are all great lenses, no question about that! All these lens companies can produce fantastic lenses, but the Sigma 18-35 is simply a gamechanger! Of course the Zeis Otus is top shelf, but so is its price. Same thing for the Canon: at that price level you just expect nothing but the best. And now for a third party manufacturer like Sigma to make a lens with those properties at that price, is sensational imho. Why can't CaNikon do that?
Have a great newyear's eve, y'all!!
P.S.: To DPR staff: keep up the excellent work, guys!

. . . but Scottish law is different
Members of this Money Laundering and Crime discussion group will be aware that from time to time I draw attention to differences between the laws of Scotland and those of England & Wales.
In terms of reporting of suspicions of money laundering there is no great problem. The provisions of Part 7, Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 and the Money Laundering Regulations 2007 apply to Scotland as much as to England & Wales. There may be some difference of opinion, North and South of the Border, as to whether a person may properly be convicted of failing to report a suspicion of money laundering where, in fact, no actual money laundering has been proven to have taken place (in which the Scots seem to take a tougher line than the English) but that is a matter of detail.
Also, of course, the Scots have a legal obligation to report suspicions of certain crimes other than money laundering (see an earlier article in this discussion group). There is no equivalent statutory obligation in England & Wales.
In recent years however there have been a couple of significant upsets from legal challenges to procedures operated at police stations in Scotland.
By way of background, in England & Wales we have two major Acts of Parliament covering police investigations of suspected crimes - the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 and the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act 1996. For the most part, these Acts do not have effect in Scotland.
Instead there are Acts such as the Criminal Justice (Scotland) Act 1980 and the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995, as well as a great body of common law, which apply in Scotland.
It had been, until relatively recently, common practice for police in Scotland to detain and interview suspects without first offering them access to legal advice from a solicitor. Following the decision of the Supreme Court in 2010 in the case of Cadder it is clear that transcripts of such interviews are not admissible evidence in criminal trials. The criminal law and police station procedure in Scotland have had to be amended as a result.
Last year there was another upset in the case of Yvonne Cowie who had been detained by police, interviewed, charged and then required to supply a sample of saliva for DNA testing. The court has held that the evidence from the DNA test is not admissible. This is because the swab was taken AFTER she had been charged rather than BEFORE charging. Once she had been charged the detainee's status had changed as regards the police and their powers. Whilst they could have invited her to supply a saliva sample after charging her they could no longer require her to provide one.
Again it may be the case that police station procedures have not followed the law and as a consequence the results of many DNA tests may no longer be admissible in evidence.
The criminal law is a fascinating labyrinth!

Rome is the capital of Italy as well as the country's largest and most populous city.[1]
In 1754, celebrated broom fliers Silvio Astolfi, of Italy, and Torquil McTavish, of Scotland, agreed to hold a race from Aberdeen to Rome. Fans of both racers gathered at the Colosseum, where the finishing line was located, and a fight broke out between them. During the scuffle, an explosion was somehow set off, leaving the Colosseum in ruins. Thanks to Orabella Nuttley, who stepped forward to repair a few columns with the Mending Charm she had invented, the damage to the ancient amphitheatre was undone by the time that Rome's Muggle citizens arrived at the scene.[2]

10 Luxury Car IIHS Top Safety Picks
luxury cars offer some of the most highly developed safety equipment on the market. In addition to necessities such as advanced airbag systems and strong chassis and passenger compartment designs, luxury car companies invest in the research and production of high tech, forward-thinking active safety systems that can serve as watchful electronic eyes keeping tabs on vehicle occupants at all times. Some of these systems can seem as though they were lifted directly out of a science fiction movie, but their contribution to safer driving is unmistakable.
Every year, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety hands out its Top Safety Pick award for the vehicles that score a rating of "Good" in frontal offset impact, side impact and roof crush strength testing. Let's take a look at ten luxury cars that earned the Top Safety Pick status for the 2011 model year.

The 2011 Audi A3 is a compact premium hatchback that comes with advanced dual stage airbags up front, as well as side thorax airbags that are mounted on the side of each front seat. Second row passengers also receive side airbag protection, and Audi's Sideguard head curtain airbags along both sides of the passenger compartment bring the total number of airbags in the A3 to eight.
The 2011 Audi A3 also comes with a reinforced impact protection shell, Electronic Stabilization Control, anti-lock brakes with Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution and Brake Assist. Quattro all-wheel drive is an option for additional traction, and available ultrasonic parking assist can detect objects located out of sight when reversing the vehicle.

Active head restraints also work to prevent whiplash for the driver and front passenger.
High tech safety equipment abounds in the BMW 5 Series. In addition to standard Dynamic Stability Control and Dynamic Traction Control, top of the line versions of the car benefit from technologies such as Brake Fade Compensation, Brake Drying and Active Blind Spot Detection.

FONTANA, Calif. (AP) -- Denny Hamlin has won the pole for the second straight year at Fontana, turning a lap of 187.451 mph in his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota.
Greg Biffle finished second and Brad Keselowski was third in Friday's qualifying session, but they'll start at the back after engine changes.
Hamlin earned his first pole of the season and the 13th of his career. He won three last year, and has won the pole three times at Auto Club Speedway.
Biffle was right behind at 187.217 mph in his Roush Fenway Racing Ford. Keselowski was third, beating Kyle Busch's 187.130 mph in fourth place.
But Biffle and Keselowski both had engine issues in practice.

Tennessee Transfer Pathways: Guaranteed Credit Transfer for Certain Vol State Programs
Submitted on August 23, 2011 at 2:04 PM
Community college students who want to complete a bachelor's degree now have a guarantee that their credits will transfer to a public university in Tennessee, if they choose one of 50 different majors offering transfer pathways. Volunteer State Community College is part of the new program.
The University of Tennessee (UT) and Tennessee Board of Regents TBR) systems have collaborated to create 50 "Tennessee Transfer Pathways" for timely and cost-effective transitioning from a two- to four-year degree. All pathways are effective for the fall 2011 semester.
Every student entering a community college in Tennessee now can select one of 50 majors with accompanying transfer pathways, complete required courses, earn an associate's degree and transition seamlessly as a junior at a Tennessee public university. All earned credit hours will apply toward a bachelor's degree in the same discipline.
If followed exactly, the pathways also guarantee admission to all public universities in the state, except for UT Knoxville. The Complete College Tennessee Act of 2010, which outlined the transfer pathway model, requires that admission to UT Knoxville "remain competitive."
The 50 pathways were chosen based on transfer data. They include programs such as business administration, engineering, nursing, agriculture and criminal justice, among many others. A complete listing is available at: www.tntransferpathway.org.
Schools participating in the transfer pathways program include TBR's 13 community colleges and six universities and UT's three undergraduate campuses in Chattanooga, Knoxville and Martin. Not all schools have the demand or resources needed to offer all 50 pathways, but advisors are being trained to identify the best options for students interested in pursuing a bachelor's degree. A listing of schools and pathways offered is included on the above-referenced website.
To ensure transfer, pathways must be followed exactly, and substitutions will not be accepted. Students who change pathways or majors are not guaranteed all courses will apply.
Creation of the transfer pathways website was aided by grant funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Our strategy
Improve community infrastructure, health, resiliency and economic opportunities in Indonesia's most challenging urban and coastal areas.
The context
About half of all Indonesians live on less than two dollars a day. Employment growth has been slower than population growth. Public services remain inadequate by middle-income standards, and health indicators are poor. The island is also one of the most disaster-prone nations in the world.
Our work
- Economic opportunity: Providing technical assistance, training and financial services to microfinance institutions throughout the country and helping spice farmers earn more income
- Health: Raising awareness and supporting mothers to practice and promote exclusive breastfeeding
- Water: Improving sanitation and hygiene in crowded urban areas with a mobile sludge removal service
- Disaster preparedness: Identifying and mapping areas at risk and helping those communities plan, train and practice how to respond when disasters occur
- Emergency response: Maintaining a response team ready to quickly deploy and provide immediate relief to survivors during the critical first months after a disaster strikes
All stories about Indonesia
Indonesia: Lake Maninjau
Indonesia: Lead them to a better future
I started my day with a cup of tea while reading a local newspaper, Padang Ekspres, this morning. The headline for today's edition read "70 percent of the business economy is destroyed."
Indonesia: A happy moment amid the ruins
I was busy overseeing the distribution of hygiene kits for 167 earthquake-affected households in Surantiah village when I was suddenly attracted by the sound of laughter from outside the hall where we were handing out supplies.
Indonesia: Your help means a lot
Today Mercy Corps has done a lot.
Indonesia: I hope the world got my message
I never imagined that I would be interviewed by an international news TV station. But there I was, on a live report from the field, with Al Jazeera asking me to tell the world what I seeing.
Indonesia: A few comforts as they start to rebuild
Indonesia: More needs emerge along Sumatra's coast
The Mercy Corps team has begun distributions, giving out much-needed items like tool kits to help people rebuild their homes and their lives.
Indonesia: We won't stop now
I wasn't joking when I wrote in my previous blog post that Padang is one of my favorite holiday destinations. So it was amazing this morning as I drove with our emergency response team to Pesisir Selatan district and saw the beautiful white sandy beaches along the coast.
Indonesia: Three countries, seven cities, one call
Especially during the first several days in the aftermath of an disaster, a diverse group of Mercy Corps staff comes together for phone conferences to coordinate and discuss what's happening on the ground.
Indonesia: How can you help earthquake survivors?
Today I visited Ulakan village for the second time and, again, I saw many worried faces among the survivors in earthquake-affected communities. Tents fashioned from tarpaulins and plastic bags are still standing in front of their houses, makeshift homes for entire families.

May 6, 2016
After 33 years of roaming the sidelines Southside head coach DeWayne Kellum has decided to retire and was honored Friday night during his final home game.
Kellum led the Seahawks to a combined record of 49-9 from 2002 through 2006 and made state championship appearances in 2002 and 2004.
Kellum's coaching career started at Chocowinity High School in 1985, which eventually became Southside, where he coached baseball and basketball and the same school from which he graduated.
The school honored to the longtime coach before the Seahawks game against Riverside with a plaque for more than 30 years of service.

No Money, Mo' Problems
this wiki
- "Shit son! Hardware like this takes time to put together. I'll be in touch."
- — 8-Ball.
No Money, Mo' Problems is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories given to protagonist Toni Cipriani by explosives expert 8-Ball from his shop in Pike Creek, Shoreside Vale, Liberty City.
Toni goes by 8-Ball's bomb shop in Pike Creek, looking for the hardware he needs to 'clear' part of Fort Staunton in Staunton Island. He gives 8-Ball $20,000 for the explosives, with 8-Ball informing Toni that he needs time to get the explosives and that he'll phone him when he has them.
Post mission phone call
8-Ball: My man? This is 8-Ball. Your hardware is ready to ship out.
There is no monetary reward for completing the mission (indeed, $20,000 is actually taken from Toni's funds). If the player has completed Cash in Kazuki's Chips (the final mission of the Toshiko Kasen strand), then Bringing the House Down is unlocked.
- The mission name is a nod to the Notorious B.I.G. rap song; "Mo' Money, Mo' Problems" as well as being a nod to one of the pedestrian lines in GTA III, "No money, no problems!" which is often heard during normal gameplay in poorer regions of Liberty City. Also, this quote can be heard from members of the Liberty City Triads.
- This mission is similar to Bomb Da Base, Act II from GTA III, because both require the player to give 8-Ball a large sum of cash in exchange for explosives.

Video: How WSCC Was Able To Keep The Water On
Video: WSSC Crews Close Key Valve Near Failing Main
Video: WSSC Says Water Will Keep Flowing During Repairs
Video: WSSC: Water To Keep Flowing During Repairs
Video: WSSC Says Crisis Averted With Failing Water Main
LAUREL, Md. (WUSA9) -- Officials say water will keep flowing during the repairs of a failing water main in Prince George's County.
WSSC General Manager and CEO Jerry Johnson said that the problem has improved and he expects water to keep flowing while the main pipe is being repaired. Water will be diverted from other pipes.
"Dedicated WSSC workers "unfroze" and closed a key valve near the failing pipe. This greatly reduced the amount of pipeline that had to be shut down to make repairs to the failing 54-inch Forestville pipe," WSSC officials said in a news release.
The names of the workers are Billy Dove, Jimmy Bower, Tom Ecker and Brad Destelhorst.
The mandatory water restrictions have not been lifted and will stay in place until the pipe is repaired.
"I want to thank our customers who have done a terrific job of conserving, Prince George's County officials for their efforts, and to thank our employees who wouldn't give up on a troublesome valve," Johnson said.

"We've been doing this thing longer than you've been alive, propelled by some mysterious drive," is the first couple lines of "Longer Than You've Been Alive" the first track from the Old 97's newest record Most Messed Up. Celebrating their 20th year as a band, the Old 97's have released one of the best records of 2014. Fans of Americana, punk (Tommy Stinson from The Replacements plays on a few tracks), and alt-country will be happy to discover that the boys from Texas have messed those genre up into a pure raucous ride. Songs like "Let's Get Drunk & Get It On" and "Wasted" are anthems to the hard life of a band strumming hard through two decades of music. "Guadalajara" and "The Ex of All You See" tell the torrid tales of love and loss on the road. After the final song has ended you will have felt like you have listened to a musical biography of a most messed up, but amazing band. In fact, the chorus of the lead track sums the entire record nicely, "Rock and Roll's been very very good to me, the open road's the only place I wanna be."

Just two days after he proposed the idea, Cincinnati City Councilman Jeff Berding quietly dropped his proposal to tax panhandlers and require them to wear signs stating how much the city contributes to social service agencies on an annual basis. Despite the sudden flip-flop, Berding's idea has inspired a similar concept targeting City Hall.
A forum on health care reform featuring people who have been adversely affected by the current system that relies on private insurance will be held Thursday. Entitled "National Health Care Reform: The Time Is Now," the forum will be held from 6:30-8 p.m. at St. Monica/St. George Parish Center, 328 W. McMillan St., Clifton Heights.
Among panelists who will speak at the forum are uninsured people, small business owners who can't afford premiums for their workers and physicians.
The UK furniture store Habitat capitalized on the Iranian political crisis on their Web site using Twitter keywords to lure potential customers who, instead of shopping, were looking for news on more mundane matters — human rights violations, political unrest, that sort of junk.
Has it really come to this?
The lead feature article in the new issue of The New Yorker focuses on the anti-gang program Cincinnati implemented two years ago. John Seabrook's "Don't Shoot" is a long, well-researched and well-written story about David Kennedy, who devised the "Ceasefire" crime-fighting model in Boston, and his experiences here implementing C.I.R.V. (Cincinnati Initiative to Reduce Crime).
More than 200 people attended Imago's Earth Spirit Rising conference at Xavier University this weekend, where they were challenged to rethink their actions and their effect on the planet.
Speaker Paula Gonzalez, a Dominican nun and futurist, cast the challenges ahead in stark terms: "We must realize the scale of our times, which is on the scale of transitions like going from hunter-gathering to agriculture, or industrialization. You must take the messages of this conference home in your heart, in your soul, in your gut, and get off your butt and act."
When staff writers leave CityBeat they have, in the past, had an opportunity to publish a "so long" piece. It's usually done as a column or a first-person commentary. My last piece for CityBeat will be a review of a new book that looks at the current U.S. slave market.

All Showings in the CUB 123 Orndorff Theater
Tsotsi (2005) • South Africa • R • 94 mins • Mon, February 6th 6:30-9:00pm
"In Johannesburg, a small time criminal, Tsotsi, is a teenager without feelings, hardened by his tough life. After a series of violent gang hits, Tsotsi hijacks a car…. The next six days bring about a change in him that couldn't be foreseen" (IMDB.com). The film won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film of the Year.
The club will look at an overview of gang culture in South Africa and its impact on the region. How did a gang problem develop in the region? How has life changed for communities in the post-apartheid era? Who are "the numbers" and how are they structured?
Suggested Audience: African studies, Sociology students
"Embarrassed by his large nose, a romantic poet/soldier romances his cousin by proxy" (IMDB.com). The film won many awards – including the Oscar for best costume design. Ranked #43 in Empire magazine's "The 100 Best Films Of World Cinema" in 2010.
To celebrate Valentine's Day, the club will screen a film considered one of the more romantic foreign films ever made. Originally an 1897 play, the story has been adapted for the big screen 10 times in the past 110 years. History of the play and character will be discussed.
Suggested Audience: French studies, French Club, English / Theater students
To Live (1994) • China•UR •132 mins • Mon, February 27th 6:30-8:45pm
"Fugui and Jiazhen endure tumultuous events in China as their personal fortunes move from wealthy landownership to peasantry. Addicted to gambling, Fugui loses everything. In the years that follow he is pressed into both the nationalist and communist armies, while Jiazhen is forced into menial work. They raise a family and survive, managing 'to live' from the 40's to the 70's in this epic, but personal, story of life through an amazing period" (IMDB.com).
Due to the film's substantial length, there will be little time for discussion. However, viewers will be able to learn why this film was banned in China. The film also got Zhang Yimou, one of China's greatest director's of all time, a two year ban from filmmaking. Along with winning the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, the film also won a BAFTA and Golden Globe Award for best foreign language film.
Suggested Audience: World history students, Asian studies, Chinese Club
"Ten years after the end of World War II; anti-terror policeman Fuse gets suspended from service after the suicide by self-detonation of a young terrorist girl during an operation, as he failed to shoot her in time. When he tries to gather some information about her, he meets her sister and befriends with her. Both get dragged into the rivalries between the administration of the police and the counter terrorism commando unit 'Jin Roh' (human wolves)" (IMDB.com).
"Once there was a little girl, called Little Red Riding Hood, for she wore always that red riding hood. Now her mother had made her a suit of clothing for her to wear, and this suit of clothing had been made completely out of metal" (Wikipedia.com). We will discuss the analogy to the fairy tale, as well as the history behind the dark version it references. Also, we will look in-depth at the many, many references to postwar Japan's political history.
Suggested Audience: Art students, Ethics on War & Terrorism, Political studies, English students
"A man in London tries to help a counterespionage agent. But when the agent is killed and he stands accused, he must go on the run to both save himself and also stop a spy ring trying to steal top secret information" (IMDB.com).
The 39 Steps is the second film in a line of Hitchcock films based upon the idea of an innocent man on the run. What is an auteur? A brief introduction of Alfred Hitchcock's work will be given. Can you spot Hitchcock's cameo?
Suggested Audience: English students, Film students
"On the steppes of Kazakhstan, Asa lives in a yurt with his sister Samal, her husband Ondas, and their three children. Ondas is a herdsman, tough and strong. It's dry, dusty, and windy; too many lambs are stillborn. Against this backdrop, Asa, a dreamer who's slight of build and recently finished with a stint in the Russian Navy, tries to establish a life on the steppes…. Is this the place of Asa's dreams?" (IMDB.com).
The film depicts the barren, rural side of the country and provides a look into a fading way of life. What is it like to have only one potential bride within 100 miles? The unique casting and filming approach to the film will also be explained. Terms like yurt will be explained. We'll discuss why the film was criticized by some Kazakhstan government officials – even more so than Borat.
Suggested Audience: World history students, Sociology students, Middle East / Asian studies
"A Jewish man has a wonderful romance with the help of his humour, but must use that same quality to protect his son in a Nazi death camp" (IMDB.com). This film won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and Best Actor in a Leading Role.
Roberto Benigni directed, starred, and co-wrote this touching tale that occurs during WWII. Inside a Nazi concentration camp, a father attempts to preserve the innocence of his son through positive psychology. A mixture of comedy and tragedy, a film about the concept of hope in the worst of times. Highly recommended.
Suggested Audience: World history students, Sociology students, Psychology students

I don't have a favorite TV program but I try to catch at least a couple of the categories on "Jeopardy!" every weeknight.
I like to remind myself that what I know would comfortably fit in a leaflet, and what I don't know would fill to bursting a great library.
So let's say, by way of example, that ABC decided to stop showing "Jeopardy!" on Tuesdays and Thursday.But on Wednesdays and Fridays you get two episodes per night instead of one.
That's twice as many daily doubles on those two nights.
(It's also, unfortunately, twice as many of Alex Trebek's annoying French pronunciations.)
The preceding "Jeopardy!" hypothetical pretty well describes what's actually going to happen with the Baker City Herald starting the week of June 1-5.
We'll keep gathering a week's worth of news but we'll publish all the words and photographs in three issues — Monday, Wednesday and Friday — rather than five.
Which means you'll probably do well to set aside extra time to get through each issue, because each one will contain more local news than do the editions you're used to.
Our goal, though, is not merely to wedge five days of news into the space now occupied by three.
We intend to do more than that.
Because we won't be assembling a newspaper on Tuesdays or Thursdays, our reporters and photographs will have more time to interview and write and photograph.
And it's the same group of reporters — Chris Collins, Mike Ferguson, Lisa Britton, Ed Merriman and Gerry Steele — and photographers — S. John Collins and Kathy Orr — who bring you the news of Baker County now. We're cutting a couple of issues per week but we've not laid off any member of the news staff; and it's a staff, by the way, which has among its members about 125 years of experience covering this county.
Our current schedule, publishing five days a week, goes like this:
We have to finish our color pages — usually Page 1 and the back page, although occasionally others — by 9:45 a.m.
The deadline for all other pages is 10:15 a.m.
Until the paper is done, all of us in the news department concentrate on finishing the daily issue, and none of us has much time to work on stories or photographs for future editions.
Unlike at larger newspapers, where reporters only report and editors only edit, everyone in the newsroom has to take on all manner of tasks in the morning, including proof-reading each other's stories, putting the text and photos on the page, and then sending the completed pages by computer to La Grande, where the Herald is printed.
But after June 1, Tuesday and Thursday mornings will be quite different around here.
With no deadlines to meet on those two days, we'll have more time to gather news.
The actual amounts will vary, of course, but I figure that each of us will have, on average, about six more hours more per week to find out what's happening in our county.
With that extra time, our staff will be able to pursue more stories and take more photographs.
But also — and I think this is at least as important — they'll have the chance in many cases to add vital information to stories which now, due to deadlines, might not be as detailed as we'd like.
It's an inevitability in this business that reporters sometimes "finish" a story while they're waiting for someone to return a phone call or respond to an e-mail.
That won't happen as often in the Herald after June 1.
As for immediacy, we are fortunate to be living in the Internet age.
If a blizzard blocks the freeway on a Tuesday or a Thursday morning, we'll post the information on our Web site — www.bakercityherald.com — as soon as possible.
We'll make similar use of the Web site in other cases. For instance, if the county commissioners, who usually meet on Wednesday, approve a zoning ordinance that affects hundreds of property owners, we won't wait until Friday's issue to alert the county. We'll get the story on the Web Wednesday, with perhaps a more detailed online version Thursday, followed by an even more comprehensive story in the Friday print edition.
One thing that won't change even a whit after June is our insatiable curiosity about the people and the places of Baker County, what they're doing, what they care about, what they find fascinating.
Our stories aren't really ours, after all.
The stories are all yours.
We consider it a privilege to tell them, and, as always, we want to hear more.
Or stop by the office; I'm usually around, and on Tuesday and Thursday mornings I won't, as the saying goes, be on deadline.
The address is 1915 First St.

WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA*9 Call For Action)--The caller ID on your phone tells you the call is from your bank, but is it?
MORE: FCC Guide Caller ID and Spoofing
What is spoofing?
Unfortunately, identity theft has attacked caller ID and the result is disturbing to consumers. It works this way: the number listed on your phone says it is from your credit card company. The caller says your credit card is being used to make purchases that don't fit your spending pattern and the company is concerned that you may be the victim of fraud. The caller asks for your credit card number to verify your identity. Believing the number registered on your caller ID, you provide the info. Oops! Crooks will have a field day using your credit card. Much the same spiel is used to get access to your bank records including your social security number. Once you have provided the information crooks go to work robbing your bank account and setting up fake accounts in your name.
There are a number of companies that advertise on the internet that you can change your identity when making a phone call by purchasing their device. The Federal Trade Commission frowns on this practice when it is used by telemarketers because it may violate telemarketing rules. In one case the FTC took action against a mortgage company that used spoofing to disguise its identity.
Is spoofing taking place in other forms of communication?
Emails are spoofed so they look as if they come from one source. But, in fact, they are from clever crooks that want to steal your money or your identity. Often these crooks are in another country.
MORE: WUSA*9 Call For Action
Many consumers are now aware of emails that claim to be from their bank, credit card company and so forth that want personal financial information. The email appears to be from one source, when in fact, it is from a crook trying to rip off a consumer.
The best advice is to use another means to communicate with your financial institutions. For example, if you get a call and the caller ID indicates it is your credit card company, do not provide personal information during the call. Ask for the name and phone number of the person calling. But do not use it, rather go to an independent source, such as your credit card itself and locate the number for customer service. Keep the caller info in case it is a scam and you can report it to federal authorities.

2. The Australain $ exchange rate. Far fewer journeymen Aussies coming over meaning more opportunities for homegrown players
3. RFL taking steps to improve their marketing. They aren't going to hit with everyone but they are certainly stepping up their game
4. A 14 league Championship. Leading to a 'full' league season for the Clubs involved
5. New sponsors coming on board. From Tetley's, Marriott Hotels, Foxy Bingo ;-) & on the verge of announcing a title sponsor for the Championship
6. New non-heartland Clubs for Championship 1.Who would have thought they would see 3 professional London teams, Oxford, Gateshead, 2 Welsh teams & Gloucestershire All Golds? They might all not last but some will and that means new people following the greatest game
7. The new Super League season starts on the same weekend as ther 6 nations. If you watch both it will remind us why we broke away and how much we need to stay away from the kicking compthat will be on the BBC
8. Gates are on the increase, there are possibly 7 clubs this year in with a chance of making either finals (next year could be as many as 10 if the new owners deliver on their promises)
9. Brian Barwick appointed as non-executive chairman. Can only lead to good things with sponsors & TV contracts
10. IT'S A RUGBY LEAGUE WORLD CUP YEAR. Good marketing so far, encouraging pre sles (anyone have any updates), new sponsors & broadcast partners to be released soon. Some world class Englan players (Tomkins, Burgess, Roby, Ellis, Graham, Hall) that would grace any side on the planet, along with some great opportunities for some promising youngsters to step up to the plate (Hardaker, Watkins, Hill, Jones, Dixon)
Can anyone come up with 11 - 15 of positives for the upcoming year?

Oregon's Constitution, like its federal counterpart, is a wonderful document that protects people who say terrible things.
"Saying," in this instance, being quite different from "doing."
Both our state and country have a litany of laws that prohibit people from doing all sorts of things that harm another person in a tangible way stealing someone's car, for example, or shooting someone dead.
Hardly anyone opposes such laws because most everyone understands those laws help to preserve some semblance of order in a society.
We hope, anyway, that the punishments will deter car thieves and murderers.
Those kinds of laws are nearly universal, enforced in democracies as well as dictatorships, in capitalist countries as well as communist.
The presence of such laws on any country's books, though, tells nothing about how free that particular place's citizens are.
A far better barometer of freedom is to gauge the level of pressure a country exerts to control what its citizens say, as opposed to what they do.
Article 1, Section 8 of Oregon's Constitution puts it this way: "No law shall be passed restraining the free expression of opinion, or restricting the right to speak, write, or print freely on any subject whatever; but every person shall be responsible for the abuse of this right."
That's a pretty straightforward statement.
Unfortunately, since Oregon's Constitution was adopted the state's legislators have passed at least one law that seems ignorant of Article 1, Section 8.
That law, which is rich in parentheses if not constitutional adherence, is ORS 166.065(1)(a)(b). According to that law, a person is guilty of harassment if he or she is "publicly insulting another person by abusive words or gestures in a manner intended and likely to provoke a violent response."
Contrast that law and its murky language with the unequivocal Oregon Constitution.
Who can say which words are "abusive" and which are merely annoying? Can we conclude with absolute certainty that a person intends his words to make a violent response likely? What constitutes a violent response, and how likely is likely enough?
Oregon's Constitution, by contrast, precludes such vagaries of interpretation by its sheer bluntness. "No law" is immune to parsing. So is "on any subject whatever."
Fortunately, Oregon's Supreme Court recently rendered a decision that upholds the Constitution, rather than ORS 166.065, as the arbiter of our state's tolerance for words.
That decision overturned the harassment conviction of a man who yelled profane, homophobic and racist epithets at two women whose car pulled in front of his pickup truck.
The man did not touch either woman, nor did he threaten to harm the pair.
Justice W. Michael Gillette, who wrote the opinion outlining the court's unanimous decision, noted: "Courts have long recognized that even speech that is intended and likely to produce violence may not be criminalized unless the violence is imminent."
Right there is the crux of the matter.
If the Oregon Constitution is to have any relevance, then it must ensure that people can say words even insulting and degrading words without fearing they'll be arrested simply because someone believed those words were intended to cajole another person into lashing out with a right cross.
The case on which the Supreme Court ruled would have been quite different had the man, for instance, told the women he was going to kill them and then pointed a rifle at them.
That's a situation in which a reasonable person would think violence was, as Justice Gillette wrote, "imminent."
Calling someone nasty names, however, lacks that implied threat of violence.
We sympathize with the two women who were subjected to such vulgarity, but that's hardly sufficient reason to trample on one man's and thus by legal precedent everyone's precious constitutional rights.
Gillette wrote in his opinion: "Harassment and annoyance are among common reactions to seeing or hearing gestures or words that one finds unpleasant. Words or gestures that cause only that kind of reaction, however, cannot be prohibited in a free society, even if the words or gestures. . . are insulting, abusive, or both."
That's nicely put.
The truest test of Oregon's Constitution is not that it protects our right to say words which make people smile.
It's the words that make people grit their teeth in anger which are the first to be choked into silence by the overreaching grip of government.

Bonded By Baloff -- Oakland, CA -- February 4th, 2012
This was one of the flat out most joyous and happy concerts I have attended. Sure it doesn't top Judas Priest in Bakersfield last year, but for thirty dollars, I got roughly 5 hours of top flight Bay Area-style thrash. All in all, kickass show!
The most noteworthy openers were Hysteria and Hell-Fire, two local power/thrash bands. Check out their Facebook pages, both are among the best young retro-minded bands the Bay has to offer!
By the way, all these sets are 100% accurate.
1. Dying Season
2. Control By Chaos
3. Arrows of Agony
4. Hypnotized
5. Opiate of the Masses
6. Goblin's Blade (with Eric Wong)
7. Open the Grave (with Eric Wong)
8. Death by Hanging (with Rob Dukes)
Heathen were fantastic as expected. The band has become noticeably tighter since seeing them with Exodus a year and a half ago. Darren's drumming was dead tight, and David White sounded even better than last time. Lee's solos also seemed more composed rather than improvised - Kragen's solos were spotless as usual. For Goblin's Blade and Open the Grave, the band was joined by their original bassist Eric Wong, which was definitely a neat surprise. Rob Dukes also came out to do some backing vocals on Death by Hanging, which was fun, even if he didn't really do much. I also got signatures from Lee, David, Kragen and Darren on my Evolution of Chaos LP cover!
1. Infinite
2. March Into Fire
3. Step By Step
4. Omega Wave
5. Forsaken at the Gates
6. Through Eyes of Glass
7. Chalice of Blood
Forbidden were great as well, Russ sounded perfect! He hit every scream perfectly, and Craig and Steve were headbanging like there was no tomorrow. Just like pretty much every other Forbidden show, the main complaint is no Forbidden Evil, but whatever. Interestingly, Paul Bostaph was hanging around during the concert and went to chill with Forbidden after their set was done. It's too bad he didn't play a song with them, it could have been a killer guest appearance.
1. The Exorcist
2. The Eyes of Horror
3. Holy Hell
4. Seance
5. Evil Warriors
6. Pentagram
7. Swing of the Axe
8. Phantasm
9. My Belief
10. Fallen Angel
11. Burning in Hell
12. Beyond the Gates
13. Tribulation
Encore Kinda Sorta
14. Heretic
15. Death Metal
Possessed were the surprise of the night for me. Say what you will about the present lineup, but they just DESTROYED Oakland a few hours ago. Every single song had an active pit going for it, and all the instruments sounded heavy as hell. Jeff was rocking out in his wheelchair, and his vocals sounded even more evil live than on the original albums. They tried to do an encore, buf Jeff was taking so long to wheel off the stage after the lights went down that they just wheeled him back to center stage right away! If you get the opportunity, the present version of Possessed is not to be missed.
After Possessed I caught the last couple songs from Attitude Adjustment, an old crossover thrash group from the '80s. Chris Kontos, who drummed on Burn My Eyes by Machine Head is probably their most well known member. I was lucky enough to see them open for Anvil with a 45 minute set two years ago, but I managed to catch only Johnny and Grey World this time around. The band sounded as good as I remembered, but Chris sounded a lot more in control this time. When I saw them two years back, Chris could barely keep up and his drumming straight up sucked at the time.
1. Bonded By Blood
2. Exodus
3. Pleasures of the Flesh
4. Piranha
5. Brain Dead (with Harald Oimoen)
6. Deliver Us to Evil
7. Hells Breath
8. Metal Command
9. No Love
10. And Then There Were None (With Rick Hunolt)
11. A Lesson in Violence (With Rick Hunolt)
12. Strike of the Beast (With Rick Hunolt)
13. Whipping Queen (With Kirk Hammett and Jeff Andrews)
14. Impaler (With Rick, Jeff and Kirk)
I shit you not, this setlist just happened. During Brain Dead, Harald from D.R.I. came out and did that Russian kick dance thing across the stage. It was random, yet awesome. And yes, we went apeshit went Rick came out to play. Dude seems to have kicked heroin finally- he looked so happy onstage and was running all over the place. He was hi-fiving Lee, and doing plenty of classic guitar poses with Gary. I don't think he'll be back in the band anytime soon, (Lee is the better guitarist anyway IMO) but if he keeps making guest appearances I'll be happy. And of course, when Gary introduced Kirk (the guy who told him to pick up a guitar apparently), the place went ballistic and we were all freaking the fuck out. After every other song or so, Gary would give an anecdote about Paul Baloff, which was a nice touch for the evening. Whipping Queen sounded beyond awesome to hear in good quality - hopefully the band records it at some point. When Kirk came in, they were also joined by Jeff Andrews, their original bass player. Pleasures of the Flesh and all the extra BBB tracks were a ton of fun to hear as well in addition to the usual classic. Impaler was just flat out badass, Rick, Lee, Kirk and Gary all soloed, making the song quite a bit longer than it normally is. Sticking with songs that Baloff was associated with was a cool idea, but Exodus not playing Toxic Waltz should be illegal, even if they play all of Bonded By Blood in exchange. Rob did a fine job with the songs, and even ordered security to let people stagedive, which I thought was super chill on his part.
Last thing- the crowd was among the best I've ever been in. The kids moshed their hearts out while the adults kicked back with their beers and reminisced about tours past. There was almost always pit action going on, and a "Baloff! Baloff!" chant would start many times during Exodus' set. Pretty much every Bay Area regular was here for this show, from Metal Bob, the awesome retired old metalhead who somehow affords to go to every show, to the metal-blogging MILFs and the denim-clad thrasher kiddies. Simply put, this was one of the most fun gatherings of Bay Area metalheads I've been to since Tidal Wave- tons of familiar faces, and everyone was there to celebrate Paul Baloff's memory, Bay Area-thrash style. If there were any posers at this show, Baloff's soul eradicated them before they could enter.
I said this on my Facebook, but I'll repeat it here. I have never felt so proud and honored to be a member of the greatest thrash metal community in America- Long live Bay Area Thrash and long live the legacy of Paul Baloff!

Great review. I'm not a fan of Rob Dukes, but this would have been pretty awesome to see. Especially with Possessed, Forbidden, and Heathen!

Great review, man. Looks like it was an awesome show. Those sets are amazing!
I love inside jokes, I'd love to be a part of one some day.
I'm glad Possessed changed up their setlist. They seriously need to play Satans Curse!!! I'm in love with that Exodus setlist!!

Excellent review! Sounds like it was an amazing show.
The world weighs on my shoulders but what am I to do?
They really should have had Zetro there, especially since Gary and him are on good terms again

Comments On Apr 12, 2014:Can't believe I considered paying $80 for this poorly thought out cheap piece of plastic. Chest protector, yeah because it only covers my chest. I'm a full grown adult, didn't expect this thing to ride so high, doesn't sit down on your shoulders either, not preformed. Does not fit with my Omega brace and don't see how it would fit with any other? Cheap ill fitting connectors. I'm glad Rocky Mtn. is good about returns because it's going back without a ride on it.

Comments On Jan 22, 2014:I purchased this roost protector for my atlas neck brace. Works great with it. Once I figured out how to install my name plate I was super stoked!! The name plate was from my thor chest protector but it fit on this one and saved me about $60
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jul 05, 2013:I do lots of riding in hot, rocky conditions and compaired to other roost guards this is by far my favorite. Breaths well and takes alot of crashes without scratching much or falling apart. would buy another but dont need to
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Mar 15, 2013:So far so good! Can't even tell its there after 5mins of riding. The pivot system is cool. Over or under jersey works good. Straps are good and easy to get in/out of. Would recomend to anyone looking for this style of protection.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jul 31, 2012:The fit was good very light weight but the bottom front section that pivots keeps popping off and wont stay together. Not sure if I just got a lemon or if this has happened to other people. But was no good when your in the middle of a race and your roost protector is slapping around on you

Comments On May 18, 2011:Purchased the Fly Racing Pivotal Roost Guard recently. It looks very nice, but I had a couple of problems with fitment and function. First, the plastic sections that fit over the shoulders wouldn't conform very well, leaving a space between my shoulders and the protector. It seemed as though the plastic was too stiff. Maybe it would conform over time, but I didn't take the chance of keeping it to find out. Second, I had trouble getting the straps into the lower ratchet closures. Once in, the closure worked fine, but I could see it would have been frustrating getting the protector on and off between motos. So, I returned it to Rocky Mountain for a refund. If Fly addresses these couple of issues, then I think they'll have a very good product.

Comments On Apr 07, 2011:Picked this up from my local dealership a few weeks ago... easy to move around in and comfortable. Def worth the price.. fits ok with my leatt brace, there could be a bit more room in the front though, but that's still a very minor problem.
A good buy nonetheless.

She has the most fabulous skin -- and I love the coronet braid. As someone who is in the early stages of greying and who has extremely long hair (mid-thigh), it's lovely to see women who have kicked the cliche "shear your locks and mourn your lost youth!" attitude. She looks absolutely stunning.
- November 16, 2011 at 4:02 PM

Yes she does have the most fabulous skin. Please ask her what kind of cream she uses or moisterizer. Elegance is what she is. It would be awesome if when I reach this age my skin would look like hers. Thanks Ari and I went to pre-order my book, case closed. Tee hee. I look forward to receiving it next year. Take care and thanks for providing us with such lovely ladies.

My jaw is on the ground. I want to know this woman's beauty secrets. How is it that at 80 she has no hanging skin on her neck and no jowls? Her skin is perfect. Please interview her and get her secrets. What does she eat? Does she do facial exercises? Or is this a photoshopped picture? I am 46, and my skin does not look at good.

Joyce is radiant, but it takes more than love of life to make one look like this at 80. PLEASE be honest with us, Ari.
- November 17, 2011 at 1:20 AM
Joyce is wearing many things that are on trend currently though not all are new, which shows an ongoing devotion to style, as does her use of cosmetics and grooming -- her eyebrows are perfect beyond compare!!
- November 17, 2011 at 1:20 AM
She is a very beautiful woman who has looked after herself and her skin wonderfully.
I've ordered your book some time ago. I'll bet you have a lot of pre-orders by now!
- November 17, 2011 at 3:31 AM
It seems evident to me that she is loaded with money... and have a great adress book... loaded with fantastic plastic surgeons names!
I would prefere to see some same age "commoner" woman's photos, just not to feel too depressed comparing myself to her. I love anyway her style :)

She is ravishingly beautiful. Her long hair reminds me of my great aunt who had the longest grey locks. This lady is one of a kind. I like her!!
- November 17, 2011 at 3:41 AM
She looks fantastic, but I think she may have had a little help in maintaining her lineless skin and perfectly shaped nose. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but people should admit it if they have had some help. She would be equally as great looking with some lines, and being up front about it would help other women to decide if they want to get some help in the anti- aging department.

Excellent advice from a truly stunning woman. As other comments have pointed out, she has beautiful skin. Whether it's from good genes and skincare, or if she's had some help from a plastic surgeon, she certainly doesn't look "overdone". If I could look like that at 80, I'd go for it.

Will you also add beauty regimen's to your blog. Ask them what they do to keep their skin glowing at their fine age. I'm SUPER CURIOUS! Especially Joyce, what is her skin care regimen??

Program Completion
Program completion for immigration purposes is deemed to be the final day of the semester for students enrolled in a semester-long course which meets on regularly scheduled, specified days and times for the duration of the semester. Students enrolled in condensed courses are deemed to have completed their programs on the last day of required attendance during their final semester.
For those students who are enrolled only in graduate thesis or research credits and who have met all other course requirements in a previous semester, program completion is calculated from the date of thesis or project defense, not the last day of the semester. The official program completion date for these students is the earlier of
(1) two months from the defense date OR
(2) Thesis Requirement: the date the academic department chair signs the thesis/dissertation signature page or
Project Requirement: the date the project credits change of grade is submitted by the academic department chair.
You can read the official policy memo here.
Subsequent enrollment requirements for Graduate Students: Graduate students not meeting Graduate School deadlines for final submission of thesis or project reports are required to register for one credit the following semester (the semester of formal UAF graduation). This is a university policy and is considered enrollment for administrative purposes only. It has no impact on immigration status.
Note for all students:
Following the immigration program completion date, students enter a 60-day grace period during which they may
(1) apply for OPT employment authorization (application must be received by the USCIS service center before day 60);
(2) be accepted into a new academic degree program and receive the new I-20 before day 60; or
(3) leave the country on or before day 60.
