Have to say, as sacrilegious as this sounds...I prefer Jason's half-Biellmann to a full Biellmann on anybody, man or woman. It doesn't matter which gender does it it always looks forced and painful to my eye.
But yes: just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it never happened, and no other male skater in the world at the time was doing one.

Lyrics: Robert Hunter
Music: David Nelson
Robert Hunter's ironic take on the John Harty story. Played by David Nelson with the David Nelson Band.
John Hardy, he was a desperate boy
He hailed from Richmond, VA
They cried 'cause he bruised his trigger finger
Just a-plucking for good friends in a day
He carried a razor in his portmanteau
He's a clean-shaven son of a gun
When the law came down to try to lay him low
Well you oughta see John Hardy run
You'd have thought that the wind was a cousin to him
When he made his bold getaway
By the feather stitches on his leather britches
He flew right out of Richmond, VA
Yes he flew right out of Richmond, VA
He had a little sweetheart named Claudia Dare
She stood about up to his knee
John said "little darling, if you really care
You must wait about ten years for me"
Ten years later, almost to the day
Claudia came looking for her man
She had her trousseau in a carrying sack
And her long white bridal veil on
And along in tow was the justice of the peace
And a methodist minister beside
Said John "I ain't got no religion or law
But I promised you and you'll be my bride
Yes I promised you and you'll be my bride
"Well that's real good of you," she said
"I ain't got no time to waste
I always knew you'd be a man of your word
But I brought this shotgun just in case"
Well baby, we're gonna pawn that gun
We'll get five bucks a barrel down town
And then I'm gonna buy you a diamond ring
You can wear it till they gun me down
You can wear it till they gun me down
You can wear it till they gun me down

I can test it and report if u dont mind to implement. I think thats important else we would miss quests going to our log without us noticing it.
Akgis Nov 21, 2010 at 17:17 UTC - 0 likes
yes that and also if its possible to Organize achievements by topic like u do with the zones.
Other thing
In Cataclysm there is a system where you automatically receive some quests or deliver. The blizzard quest tracker gives a warning saying you received/delivered a quest.
With your addon on, Blizzard one disabled via option by yours. The warning doesn't show anywhere but u get the quest delivered to your quest log, just nothing is shown.
Is it possible to either add that warning to your addon via the LDB text/tittle, or having blizzard quest tracker showing that but hiding the quests?
I don't know if you are in beta cause if you aren't will be hard to understand and test what I mean.
Akgis Nov 20, 2010 at 13:59 UTC - 0 likes
What I ment with the bar on achiments is for example
"Win 100 Battlegrounds"
atm shows 1/1000
but if you could make it a progress bar would be lovely
Akgis Nov 16, 2010 at 14:24 UTC - 0 likes
This is working to be a great quest tracker addon, plain and simple.
I have a last suggestion if you want to consider.
Regarding Libsink: - Making the libsink color dynamic in accordance to the completion color scheme you have already. - Putting in parenthesis the name of the quest that step was made ex: (Kill Murlocks!) Murlocks killed 1/10
Regarding Indentation: -Indent quest items but keep the quests without items with no indentation.
Quest tracking: -Automatically start tracking a quest when a objective of said quest had a step made.
Achievement Tacking: - Option to anchor the achievement tracking on top of quest tracker. - Use of a bar with sharemedia support for x/y achievements with dynamic color support.
Just a few suggestions if you feel like it dont want to impose them, you doing a great work as it is and thanks for it.
Akgis Nov 16, 2010 at 00:14 UTC - 0 likes
Sinceraly your show/hide system isn't intuitive, all quest minions I tried had they show/hide quests system by using the in-game tracking.
But there is also a problem in using that and not the blizzard tracking system wich is interaction with other addons. Example Wow-pro guides wich is a free ingame leveling guide system uses a system to show on the tracker quests that you should be doing at that moment(addon auto tracks and untracks quests)and ofc that doesnt work with your addon.
I found a bug aswell sorry Iam not at the PC with WOW installed so cant post the error report but its easy to reproduce, if you are in a raid or party(was in a raid) and hover the mouse inside the minion there is a error related to party/raid.
Thanks for your work.Last edited Nov 16, 2010 by Akgis

We are releasing hundreds of private intelligence bulletins, training manuals, personal email correspondence, names, phone numbers, addresses and passwords belonging to Arizona law enforcement. We are targeting AZDPS specifically because we are against SB1070 and the racial profiling anti-immigrant police state that is Arizona. The documents classified as "law enforcement sensitive", "not for public distribution", and "for official use only" are primarily related to border patrol and counter-terrorism operations and describe the use of informants to infiltrate various gangs, cartels, motorcycle clubs, Nazi groups, and protest movements.Every week we plan on releasing more classified documents and embarassing personal details of military and law enforcement in an effort not just to reveal their racist and corrupt nature but to purposefully sabotage their efforts to terrorize communities fighting an unjust "war on drugs". Hackers of the world are uniting and taking direct action against our common oppressors - the government, corporations, police, and militaries of the world. See you again real soon! ;D
quote: I do not want to talk immigration policy with you because I think we would agree , but with regard to the law it seems that you and I are at odds.
quote: 3.4 Free Trade and MigrationWe support the removal of governmental impediments to free trade. Political freedom and escape from tyranny demand that individuals not be unreasonably constrained by government in the crossing of political boundaries. Economic freedom demands the unrestricted movement of human as well as financial capital across national borders. However, we support control over the entry into our country of foreign nationals who pose a credible threat to security, health or property.http://www.lp.org/platform
quote: 3.5 Rights and DiscriminationWe condemn bigotry as irrational and repugnant. Government should not deny or abridge any individual's rights based on sex, wealth, race, color, creed, age, national origin, personal habits, political preference or sexual orientation. Parents, or other guardians, have the right to raise their children according to their own standards and beliefs.

5 Personality Flaws That Seem Impossible to Change
Gillian Anderson aside, we all have imperfections that define us as much as our positive points. The biggest part of growing up is not only recognizing those flaws, but making an effort to fix them. It's not an achievable goal, mind you (how many old, bitter assholes do you know?), but it's the effort that counts. It's what sets us apart from apes and Donald Trump -- the ability to recognize where personal change is necessary and then setting that change into motion.
But even for the strongest-willed person, there are some personality traits that seem damn near impossible to shed. Traits like ...
#5. Shyness
Thomas Northcut/Digital Vision/Getty Images
In my 20s, I was extremely outgoing. Barely a day went by where my house didn't have a dozen people hanging out, drinking, joking, polishing our katanas before a local gang fight with rival ninjas. I went to parties, camping, bowling ... there wasn't a social gathering I was uncomfortable with. I could walk into a bar alone and come out with a group of new friends without really intending to. If life was a movie, I would have been the villain who loses the final dance-off to the underdog nerd and then gets kicked in the balls by his angry girlfriend.
But something weird happened in my early 30s, and I'm not sure where it came from or why. I got painfully shy around strangers. It wasn't a gradual transition, as far as I can remember -- one week, I was having the time of my life, opening beer bottles with my butt cheeks and waking up with shitty tattoos. The next, I couldn't bear the thought of being around groups of people anymore.
Digital Vision./Digital Vision/Getty Images
"Fuck all of you. Go away."
Flash forward to the present day, and it's a struggle to get me out of the house. I have a trip coming up in December, and the mere thought of walking through the airport sets my nerves on edge like the day before all five of my penis reduction surgeries. I'm not even worried about the idea of flying. I'm nervous about being around all those people.
Shyness is so hard to change because your mind is constantly telling you that it's safe and comfortable at home, far removed from the buzzing mob at the grocery store. You find yourself making decisions like "Do I endure the stress to go restock my toilet paper? Or do I play it safe and just use those T-shirts that I never wear anymore?"
Doug Menuez/Photodisc/Getty Images
They are softer, so there's that.
The only way to combat shyness is to do the thing that makes the air raid sirens go off in your brain, and that can sometimes feel impossible to pull off. Logic is telling you that you should go socialize at the office Christmas party, but your mind somehow puts that on par with you deciding to stab your own pancreas with a chainsaw. Eventually, that panic doesn't just drown out the logic ... it becomes logic.
#4. Holding Grudges
Hemera Technologies/AbleStock.com
If they had a category for it, I would win a Nobel Prize for holding grudges. I grew up in a family that virtually cherished grudges like intricate works of fine art. It was so bad that if a couple of months went by without a conflict, they would manufacture one over the stupidest shit imaginable. One time, my mom and brother got into a small disagreement about chores. It ended with my brother throwing a piece of chicken and my mom sending him to live with my dad. They didn't speak for half a year. You know, normal family stuff. You've all been through the "fuck your chicken" phase.
Although I'm not personally as bad as I was 10 years ago, I still battle with grudges. I could name five of them off the top of my head that I can't fathom letting go of, even though I know that doing so would bring me a significant amount of peace and I could finally get rid of this perpetual hate erection. I think the problem is that holding a grudge is directly tied to ego, and letting go of that anger and resentment feels like you're giving in and surrendering to the enemy. Like you're admitting that you were wrong. Letting go feels like losing.
Duncan Smith/Photodisc/Getty Images
"I'm sorry, you had every right to fuck my wife. I was overreacting."
What's hard to understand is that letting go of a grudge doesn't mean that you have to apologize or even have a conversation with the other person about the issue. It just means that you stop devoting thoughts and emotion to it. Given, for many people, doing so does require contacting the person in order to get some closure, but it's certainly not a requirement for everyone. Since my dad's funeral, I haven't been to his grave, but it doesn't mean that I have to go physically shit on it in order to put my resentment to rest.
Letting go, regardless of the method you use to achieve it, means genuinely understanding that there is nothing you can do to change the other person. The only thing you have total control over is the way that you process any given situation -- how you react.
David Woolley/Digital Vision/Getty Images
This is how I react to everything now. I even carry my own trophy.
Being a person who still has trouble with grudges, I openly admit that this is much easier to type than it is to practice. But that's the point. It's a personality flaw that I know I need to change, but it's so goddamn hard. I'll make you a deal: If I figure out an easy way to do it first, I'll write an article about it. If you figure it out before me, let me know. Otherwise, you're fucking dead to me.
#3. Lying
Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
I'm going to admit something that is extremely embarrassing. I used to lie like a cheap rug. Not just normal lies that pretty much everyone tells daily. I lied about everything. I told people I was colorblind. I was a black belt in whatever martial art was popular at the time. I knew how to play the piano. Hell, at one point, I claimed I was psychic and kept up the story for over a year.
I'm not baffled as to why I did it. I wasn't happy with who I was, and when I told some outlandish story or bullshitted about some rare talent, people paid attention. As I got older, though, it became harder and harder to stop because lying was just another part of my personality. Of course, who could blame me? At the time, I was a spy, which meant lying was a big part of my job.
Michael Blann/Digital Vision/Getty Images
I mostly just took photos of tables and doodle pads.
So how did I stop? The more thought I devoted to it, the more embarrassed I got. I knew people were laughing behind my back, and I knew that they didn't believe half the shit I was spewing. People aren't that stupid. I knew I was "that guy" the second I left the room. I eventually decided that enough was enough, and I came clean to everyone who was close to me. At that point, I had an obligation to remain honest, because once they knew how full of shit I was, I knew they'd be questioning every word that came out of my mouth, even if only in their heads. "He has to use the bathroom? Yeah, I bet he does. He's probably just standing in there, not peeing, trying to trick us into thinking he is."
I don't consider mine a typical case. I had a real problem with lying, and people with similar problems most likely won't be able to give it up on a simple decision to do so. At least not without some actual professional help. Because when you're in that predicament, you know your friendships are based on a personality that isn't real. And if you let people see who you truly are, there's a good chance they're not going to like that person. It's like selling someone a Rembrandt, only to have the paint suddenly fall off to reveal crudely drawn child penises.
Photos.com/Photos.com/Getty Images
"No, it's real. I have a Rembrandt supplier. Keeps it on the down low."
Destroying your front destroys everything that's attached to it, so it's extremely easy to resign yourself to this warped frame of mind that says "This is who I am. And as long as I just maintain my current stories without adding more to them, I'll be fine. They don't have to know that I made it up." Coming clean is hard. It's humiliating. And many people will feel like you betrayed them. Some people can't handle that thought -- after all, lying was originally intended for positive reactions. Coming clean pretty much guarantees the opposite.

Judge to decide if pit bull is vicious
Today a judge is expected to hear from a man who said Mellie the pit bull attacked him.
Then, the judge is expected to make a decision.
The judge could decide that Katie Moore should lose or pet or that the animal be euthanized.
"If they don't rule in our favor, I will file an appeal. I will fight to the bitter end to save her, because she deserves it, and she is being mislabeled," said Moore.
Back in September, Bella Vista police cited the dogs owner after her neighbor, Tyler Rhinehart, claimed the pit bull, attacked him.
Moore claims the dog was just being playful---and that Mellie only put her paws on Rhinehart.
An evaluation from a Bella Vista animal shelter determined the dog was not vicious.
But is it enough?

LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
Following completion of the Human Genome Project (HGP) in 2004, the scientific community moved to apply this knowledge to gain a better understanding of human disease. Specifically, the analysis of small molecules offered a unique opportunity toward the development of therapeutics.
To investigate this new area of science, the NIH Chemical Genomics Center (NCGC) was established, effectively creating a disease-research extension of the HGP. From an organizational standpoint, the center is unique in its focus on shared knowledge. The vehicle for disseminating much of this information is PubChem. Through this database, the discoveries at the center serve as major resources.
Additionally, the NCGC, intramural NIH project scientists, and extramural investigators maintain a close collaboration through a molecular libraries probe production centers network (MLPCN). In addition to the direct deposition of data generated from MLPCN projects into the PubChem database, members of the network and their extramural collaborators often publish the findings resulting from small molecule screening and probe optimization as more in depth studies in scientific journals.
The MLPCN's small molecule repository contains over 350,000 compounds that are used for small molecule screening across the network of centers. Resource allocation, flexibility in data handling, and timely turnaround for test results all facilitate the communicative efforts between the institutions operating in the network.
NCGC uses various technologies and methods for small molecule assay development, quantitative high-throughput screening (HTS), cheminformatics, and chemistry. Using these techniques, the NCGC aims to elucidate an efficient pathway to small molecule probe discovery, the applications of which can include therapeutic discovery.
The main activities of the center focus on screening molecular targets and cellular phenotypes, chemical optimization of verified chemotypes, and expanding technologies enabling chemical biology, including siRNA screening. While there are specific goals based on researching particular diseases and biological pathways, the programs that involve general signaling pathways, for example, apply broadly and allow for the expansion of high-throughout screening technologies across disease categories.
Outside of basic research, the center partakes in studies on cancer and infectious diseases of the developing world, including malaria, schistosomiasis, and trypanosomiasis. Through the center's partnership with the NIEHS and EPA, an investigation of in vitro systems toxicology has also been under way.
The NCGC's use of HTS, which permits both target-driven and phenotype-driven drug discovery, has enabled the examination of diverse biological responses of large numbers of chemical substances. The main function of the technology is to promote "rapid testing," according to Doug Auld, Ph.D., group leader for genomic assay technologies, and James Inglese, Ph.D., deputy director of the NCGC.
Projects involve screening the compound library using high-quality assays, often designed with input from the NCGC, on robotically enabled platforms; the results of the screens are then analyzed using informatics procedures developed at NCGC. To maximize output for the variety of chemical compounds as dose-response relationships, practices such as the reduction of reagents through assay miniaturization and quality control through reagent stability and assay variability testing have proved beneficial.

Today is my Dad's birthday. I wish you could all meet my dad. I know that you would be better for it. He has a special way of connecting with people—they love him from the start. I have to say, looking back, with as unbiased view as I possibly can, I've never met anyone who didn't love him
There are so many qualities that I admire in him. He's kind and loving. He's positive and optimistic. He's both successful and humble. But, one of the characteristics that has helped me the most, is his ability to be fully committed.
He has absolutely no idea how to go half speed. It's either full blast, or full stop. What's amazing though, is that of all the people I've met in my life who have this ability, I've never met one that applies it to every facet of their life the way my father does. Whether at work, in the community, in our church, or at home he gives everything he does everything he has.
Of all the stories I love to tell about my dad, the one that exemplifies this unique part of his character the most, has to do with a bet.
Anyone who has ever spent any time trying to make his or her living selling life insurance knows that to be successful at it takes nearly every moment you can spare. In doing this, you find a unique camaraderie with your colleagues. For, many times you find they can be the best motivators on your journey to succeed. For my dad, one of those people was Ron Nelson.
They had been working together for some time when they both wanted to step up their game. In order to find the success they were seeking, they decided to make a bet—one that would motivate them both to do better.
They decided that for one month they would see who could get to the office the earliest. This would allow themselves more time to prepare and prospect and there fore more success. Who ever arrived at the office before the other for the most days in the month, would win the wager.
The way they tell it, my dad started off strong and never looked back. Ron once told me that every day he would set his alarm clock to go off a little earlier, and every day he would pull into the parking lot only to see my dad had already arrived.
According to Ron, there came a point when, tired of getting up so early, and tired of losing, he came up with a plan.
Late one night after we had gone to bed, he came over to our house, popped the hood of my dad's car and removed the distributor cap. Now, my dad has a number of talents and gifts, but, when it comes to things of a mechanically nature, he's sunk. Seriously…give the man the finest tools in the world and he still couldn't fix his way out of a wet paper sack.
Ron knew this, and with the distributor cap removed, he went home sure that the tide of the contest was about to turn.
The next morning, Ron was up early and headed to the office. He pulled into the parking lot and just as he'd assumed, my dad's car was nowhere to be found. Basking in his win he headed into the building. As he made his way to his office, he passed my dad's office, and to his utter surprise, there sat my dad drenching in his own sweat.
My dad had run the nearly 5 miles in his suit.
When he woke up that morning and found that his car wouldn't start, I'm sure he popped the hood, hoping for divine intervention. But not knowing what to look for, he missed seeing the distributor cap that was missing.
Most people would have simply taken a pass, found a mechanic and lived to fight another day. But that's not how my dad is wired. He's fully committed. When he found that the car was out of commission, he didn't look for excuses, he looked for a way to get the job done.
I wonder how our lives would be different, if we took the same fully committed approach. If we replaced our excuses for successes, and chose to be dedicated to every decision we made.
I know my life would be better. Too many times, it's too easy to take the easy way out. When real happiness and true self worth comes in being willing to get where we're going no matter what—even if it means we have to leave the car and run.
I love my dad, and maybe this post is just for me. Maybe I'm the only one who feels they could be better of they approached life with more of an "all in" attitude.
If so, that's OK. What I do know, is that today, in honor of that man I love and admire so much, I'm going to recommit myself to my goals and dreams. I'm going to work harder to give my all to everything I choose to do.
If you think it'd do you some good as well—join me. Let's find happiness and success in being fully committed.
Happy Birthday Dad.

PFS Rapid Reviews – Only God Forgives
BY Fletcher Gelber
When drug smuggler Julian's brother is killed, he is forced to find and kill whoever is responsible on orders of his villainous mother. Set in a seedy neon-filled Bangkok, this story of revenge plays out much like a horrific nightmare filled with gore and intense cinematography that makes the film a delight for the senses. Grade B.

German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Mastiffs and Labrador Retrievers are just a selection of the breeds that fall into the category of sixty pounds and up. These large breeds require a bit more space to stretch their legs or even just to turn around. Typically requiring outdoor space or regular walks, a large breed requires an owner who is willing to handle big energy and bigger poop. If you are looking for a dog that won't be blown over by a strong wind, a large breed is for you.

Real Education Reform: Letting Teachers Teach!Posted Friday, October 21, 2011, at 1:06 PM
Over the past few weeks, I have talked a lot about education and many people have asked me what "real education reform" means. Today I want to address that issue as we wind up this series on education.
First, we need to note what education reform is not. Education reform is not taking away teachers rights to bargain for things our students need like new text books, smaller class sizes, janitorial services and other classroom items. Taking away our teachers' rights to bargain for the tools our students need to be successful is not about education reform, but instead about politics.
Education reform is not about a back door process to get rid of tenure for our best teachers. Last session the General Assembly passed new laws, which I opposed, governing tenure. Under this system, teachers are arbitrarily scored on a scale of one to five. Teachers must teach for five years and score excellent two years in a row in order to receive tenure. On the surface this sounds like a good system, but the devil is in the details. As I talk to teachers & principals across my district--and across the state--they tell me that this new system simply doesn't work. Administrators don't have time to evaluate all of their teachers fairly; teachers are forced to spend too much of their day preparing to be evaluated and not enough focus is being placed on classroom instruction.
Furthermore, the state department of education is failing to do its job training administrators on new evaluation procedures. In fact, training for these new evaluations lasted only four days and by all accounts was vague, confusing and unproductive. This coupled with the fact that 60 percent of teachers don't receive the data the state uses to evaluate teachers, completely undercuts our teachers and the goals of last years Race to the Top grant.
So what is real education reform? Real education reform is giving our teachers the tools they need to help our students succeed. We achieve this when we allow them to bargain as a group for what they need to be successful. Real education reform is a system of tenure that works. We achieve this when we set high, but realistic standards for reaching this professional goal. Real education reform is a fair evaluation system that's not just an overly burdensome mandate on schools. We achieve this when we bring everyone to the table-teachers, principals & administrators- to set fair, realistic and simple rules for evaluations.
In the end, real education reform is about letting our teachers focus on what is important--educating our students. When we give teachers what they need to be successful, when we make tenure an achievable goal, when we evaluate them fairly they will rise to the occasion and prove once again that they are professionals up to the task of educating the next generation. That is real education reform.
If you have any questions about this new law or would like to hear more about another issue, please contact my legislative office and we'll get your questions answered as soon as possible. Have a great week!

Yes, Mr Fitzhugh, we saw what collective bargaining does for teachers in Wisconsin. They set a great example for their students to follow. We do not need that in Tennessee. Remember, there are more of us than you and your collective bargaining teachers....you just barely got re-elected last time. We will remember....

The Carolina Chargers semi-pro football team enters a three-game home stand Saturday.
The Chargers host the Florida Falcons at 7 p.m. at the Stadium located at the old site of Stall High School (7763 Northside Drive, North Charleston). All the teams home games are played at that stadium.
Admission is $7 for adults and $5 for children age 6-12. Children age 5 and under are admitted free.
The Chargers were founded last summer and the team is four games into its debut season with the Gridiron Developmental Football League.
Our league is very aggressive and hard-hitting, basically a step down from the NFL, Chargers owner Lisa Drake said. However, we try to make our games family oriented and fun. We have an announcer and security and bring in referees. Most of the teams we play are established teams that are very professional.
Drake, a Summerville resident, is the leagues first and only female owner. Her squad is still looking for its first win, but the majority of its games have been very tight contests.
We actually have more talent than we were expecting when we first started, Drake said. We have 65 players on our roster. We could use more depth at the quarterback position, but otherwise we are pretty set. This isnt the semi-pro football some people are used to. Our goal was to have a professionally run team and I spend about 50 hours a week on the program.
The league was designed in part to help get players who didnt have the opportunity to play in college a shot at getting noticed by NFL scouts. Some of its teams have also drawn the attention of college scouts looking for players who may have been overlooked or in need of a second chance.
We have a young group of guys who just love playing football, Drake said. Some of them are hoping to get noticed by colleges and many of them will tell you they drew college interest but didnt have the grades or even had a scholarship but then got into trouble.
In an effort to help keep her players on the right path and to give back to the community, Drakes makes sure her team participates in community service activities. Players and coaches have volunteered their time to read to kids and participate in numerous school events.
We emphasize that everything isnt about them, Drake said. We work as a family and want our guys to understand that kids look up to them.

TRUCKEE, Calif. - If a supermarket, say, a Safeway near Sonoma State, sells beer to a minor who presents a fake ID, and that minor then gives the beer to his buddy, also a minor, who while drinking and driving recklessly kills someone, are the two boys legally responsible? Yes. Is Safeway?
Safeway Sells Beer
Dylan Morse and Ryne Spitzer, Sonoma State students, spent the evening drinking at a fraternity party. After the party was broken up by the police, they went to Safeway to buy more beer.
Together they selected the beer and both stood at the checkout counter while an experienced store clerk checked Spitzer's ID. It included a photo and hologram and appeared legitimate.
In fact, the license was forged. It also was fairly clear they were pretty lit up from the alcohol. Spitzer, who presented the fake ID, carried the beer out to the car. They began drinking in the car and Morse the driver crashed into another vehicle and killed a young man.
The deceased's family sued Morse, Spitzer and Safeway, claiming Safeway essentially sold the beer to Morse.
No Liability for Serving Alcohol
In California, with one exception, there is no civil liability for anyone who sells, gives away or causes to sell or give away alcoholic beverages - for injuries to third persons caused by the consumer of the alcohol. No matter how much booze is furnished.
This applies to bars and retail stores. The immunity applies even if alcohol is sold to someone who is "obviously intoxicated."
Obviously Intoxicated Minor
The one exception is that anyone who sells, gives away or causes to sell or give away alcohol to an "obviously intoxicated minor" is responsible - not only for the injuries caused by the minor but for injuries caused to the minor.
Beer for Your Buddy
The issue in the Rohnert Park Safeway case was whether Safeway engaged in selling, furnishing, giving, or causing to be sold, furnished or given away ... alcohol to an obviously intoxicated minor, in this case, the driver Dylan Morse. The trial court ruled for Safeway and the case made it to the Court of Appeal.
The decedent's family argued that Safeway furnished or caused to be furnished or gave alcohol to Morse indirectly through Spitzer. They argued it was clear that Spitzer was going to share the beer with Morse so Safeway essentially caused the beer to be furnished to Morse.
The Court of Appeal concluded Safeway's clerk sold the beer to Spitzer and Spitzer was not the driver who negligently caused the death. Safeway neither sold nor furnished alcohol to Morse the driver. Safeway is exonerated. The case did not discuss Safeway's selling to a minor with a fake ID.
Interestingly, and perhaps as a result of this incident, my nephew who recently graduated from Sonoma State, said that Rohnert Park's Safeway checks the IDs of all young people who come to the counter with someone seeking to buy alcohol, even if an adult presents an ID - presumably to avoid just this type of tragic situation.
Social Host Liquor Liability
Remember, as of January 1, 2011, the law changed to increase the potential liability of a social host who serves alcohol at their home - to not only when they sell or cause to be sold any alcoholic beverage to an obviously intoxicated minor, but also when a parent, guardian, or other adult knowingly furnishes alcohol at his/her residence to a person under 21, who then goes out and injures or kills someone. Liability for social hosts is the norm, not the exception.

Louganis, 53, married paralegal Johnny Chaillot, 52, Saturday evening at Geoffrey's in Malibu.
"It was amazing because I have so many people from all facets of my life here tonight and they are all here and celebrating it is all wonderful," Louganis told PEOPLE immediately following the sunset ceremony. "I already feel different. The ceremony was so reflective and representative of who we are."
The recent Splash coach and Chaillot began dating in 2012 after finding each other on the online dating site Match.com and became engaged almost exactly a year later on April 8.
"It has been an incredible journey," Louganis said in an interview Thursday of his relationship with Chaillot. "I feel like we've been through a lifetime in a very short time."

Following the ceremony, guests including Barbara Eden, French Stewart and Bruce Vilanch enjoyed musical entertainment from friends of the couple, including recent The Voice contestant Dominic Scott Kay. Fellow Olympians Janet Evans, Nadia Comaneci and the rest of the guests dined on a vegan baby greens salad, grilled Angus filet mignon, Chilean sea bass, and more.
The couple is also hoping to make a difference with their celebration by asking for donations to charities in lieu of a traditional wedding registry.
"We are both in our mid fifties and don't need another blender so we really wanted to give back," Chaillot said of asking their guests to donate to the Human Rights Campaign and Mending Kids International.
And even amid the hustle and bustle of the large event, the newlyweds made certain that they kept in mind what was most important during the ceremony – each other.
"Wednesday night I talked to Greg and I said, 'When you look at me on Saturday I want you to know this is what I think about' and he told me what he is going to be thinking when he looks at me," Chaillot said. "So it is our little secret moment – our time."

On June 4, Oklahoma was ravaged by one of the widest tornadoes ever recorded in the United States. The tornado carved out a damage path up to 2.6 miles wide and 16.2 miles long, a band at times that was wider and longer than Manhattan.
The ferocity of the twisted torn apart communities and families lost almost everything, including loved ones.
After hearing news of the devastation the staff at Water's Edge Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, headed by Dr. Nicole Dahlkemper, got together and decided to donate 10 percent of all crowns, teeth whitening, veneers and Botox injections proceeds to the tornado victims. "We are more than just a private dental practice, we are a community-based practice that knows the importance of giving back to our community, no matter whether that community is here in the Lowcountry or over 1,000 miles away in Oklahoma," states practice administrator, Mark Janowiak.
Despite the aid already provided by national and federal relief programs, victims in Oklahoma are still trying to rebuild their lives and communities and require additional funding to do so. "Just because a tragedy is no longer in the news does not mean that people no longer need assistance.
The government and other relief programs run dry and people are left to fend for themselves. When you lose everything, it takes months if not years to completely rebuild and move forward," states Dr. Dahlkemper about donating to the tornado relief fund.
The local Red Cross deployed 13 volunteers to Oklahoma to join more than 2,000 Red Cross workers from across the nation. Red Cross volunteers are still in Oklahoma providing health services, emotional support and assistance for long-term recovery.
"The Oklahoma tornado relief effort and other disaster response operations are made possible because of the passion of businesses like Waters Edge Family & Cosmetic Dentistry that give to the American Red Cross," said Louise Welch Williams, regional chief executive officer, American Red Cross, Palmetto SC Region. "We are grateful that Waters Edge Family & Cosmetic Dentistry chose to support the Red Cross, so that we can continue to help these families and communities with their long-term recovery."
Every day, trained Red Cross caseworkers are meeting one-on-one with people in Oklahoma who have unmet emergency needs or who need extra help creating recovery plans. More than 6,300 people are being provided with individualized support for their families.
To date, the Red Cross has served nearly 460,000 meals and snacks, distributed almost 400,000 relief items and provided over 6,300 overnight stays in shelters. The Red Cross has also provided more than 24,000 health service referrals.
With the fundraiser, which started on June 5, Water's Edge Family & Cosmetic Surgery has raised more than $1,500. To learn more about how you can help raise money for Red Cross Relief programs, contact Lexie Leyman at 843-764-2323 x 359 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Millions of California children will continue to benefit from Affordable Care Act as implementation progresses
OAKLAND, CA – Leading children's health advocates in California applauded the Supreme Court's decision today to uphold the Affordable Care Act as a victory for California's children. Advocates noted that millions of California children and families will continue to benefit from the landmark legislation and called on California policymakers to move full speed ahead toward comprehensive, affordable health coverage for every child in the state."The Affordable Care Act has already been a huge win for California children," said Jamila Edwards, Northern California Director of Children's Defense Fund-California. "Tonight, parents can rest easier knowing the law's benefits will be there for their children tomorrow, and that more benefits are on the way. We are excited to move forward towards full implementation of the Affordable Care Act in a way that maximizes the benefits for California children.""Today the Supreme Court has answered the hopes of millions of Americans – and Californians – by upholding the Affordable Care Act. For those of us in the faith community, health care reform has been about affirming the dignity of every person and the proper role of both individuals and government in safeguarding this dignity, through such means as providing access to basic health care," said Corey Timpson, Executive Director of PICO California. "This decision strengthens the moral fabric of our nation by affirming these principles."Millions of California children have already benefited directly from the Affordable Care Act:
"Moreover, the Affordable Care Act prioritizes the health of all of our children and communities by investing in prevention, so we can keep children from getting sick in the first place," said Ted Lempert, President of Children Now. The Affordable Care Act has invested over $85 million to promote wellness and disease prevention in California.Millions more children and families will benefit once the Affordable Care Act is fully implemented. Starting in 2014, the California Health Benefit Exchange will provide a way for millions of Californians to find quality health coverage. The Exchange will also offer tax subsidies to 2.2 million Californians to make insurance premiums more affordable.Among the many families who have already benefited from the Affordable Care Act is the Charlton family of Los Angeles. Rebecca Charlton is thankful that her 1-year-old son Trevon will never be denied treatment for his complicated asthma, because the Affordable Care Act prohibits insurers from denying coverage to children with pre-existing conditions. "I knew that this could be a life-long problem, and I was aware that only a few short years ago before health care reform was passed, this diagnosis could have plagued my son for years," Rebecca said."Even as we celebrate this victory for California children, we recognize the hard work that is needed to get all eligible children enrolled in coverage as the law continues to be implemented," said Wendy Lazarus, Founder and Co-President of The Children's Partnership. "Together we must build upon the substantial progress for children's health care under the law and work until every child is guaranteed access to comprehensive, affordable health care.""Hundreds of thousands of California children can enroll today in free or low-cost comprehensive health coverage," added Suzie Shupe, Executive Director of California Coverage & Health Initiatives. "Families can apply online at www.healtheapp.net or by calling 1-877-KIDS-NOW."
Children with health insurance learn better - for instance, children
covered by Healthy Families showed 63% improvement in paying attention and keeping up with
school activities over their previous performance when
uninsured. read more

This instructor made this class very interesting for me. She is incredibly knowledgeable, not only in her field of physical therapy but in teaching as well. She conveyed the material in a very understandable way. In many instances, I would tell my husband about the many things I learned throughout the chapters. For someone who is considering a career change, this was the perfect course to gain insight. I loved this course and I thought the teacher was exceptional. I plan to take another course that she teaches. Also, I really liked how the quizzes and assignments were set up twice per week. Great format!
I loved taking this course and found it very interesting. Along with us putting in our personal input, Ms. Holly also put in hers, which doesn't happen often. Hopefully I will be able to find other classes that are online that you teach.
The anatomical pictures, charts, and descriptions were first-rate! I hold a bachelor's degree in education and five nationally recognized personal training certifications, including a rehabilitative exercise specialist certification… This course had the best presentation and was the easiest to comprehend that I have been exposed to in my 30 years of teaching fitness.
The instructor was very professional and the class material was very useful. She also had wonderful web sites with lots of information besides the class material which was very helpful and great for future use.
I felt this course was very informative and written in an understandable manner. I also enjoyed the illustrations, they were well done and provided great visuals for the lessons. Overall, I feel I have learned a great deal and will hopefully be able to take what I've learned and become a contributing PT Aide in a PT office or environment. I would recommend this course to others.
This is a very informative course, and I feel a great place for me to have started in my quest for a new career. Having been out of school for many years while raising a family, it was the perfect place for me to start in returning to "school". Thank you so much...I really enjoyed this course!
The course was well written. I currently work as a physical therapy aide and this course complimented my work in the field. Thank you and best regards.
I found this course interesting and very easy to follow. I am new to the computer and was apprehensive about being able to keep up and understand, but it was quite simple and informative. I would recommend this course to any one who has an interest in the subject. It's been a pleasure.
This is an excellent course. The instructor's knowledge of the subject matter and the professional, easy to understand presentation of the material were excellent. I learned a lot from taking the course and I was given many ways to continue learning about the profession and its capabilities on my own. It was a very enjoyable learning experience.

About the Business & Finance Diversity Committee (BFDC)The Business and Finance Diversity Committee was originally convened in 1987 by the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Business and Finance division.
The mission of the Business and Finance Diversity Committee (BFDC) is to support the Business & Finance organization and its partners in collaborating effectively to achieve our goals through maximizing respect, understanding and appreciating our differences and similarities.
The BFDC is composed of a diverse and broadly representative group of B&F staff members and partners from each area in Business and Finance. Team members are considered representatives of their areas, both for carrying information back to their groups as well as bringing forward representative ideas. In general, members are named for two-year terms, which begin March 1 of the first year and end March 31 of the second year (to allow for cross-over debrief and lessons learned). Staff members must have the support of their supervisor to commit time to attend meetings and activities, estimated at 65 hours/year for all team members and an additional 24-40 hours/year for MLK Convocation Sub Committee members.
The rotating team members are supported by ongoing team members from the office of OIE and the EVPCFO.

A 20-year-old Buffalo man caught with a 9 mm semi-automatic Luger pistol after a police chase has pleaded guilty, as charged, to second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, the Erie County District Attorney's Office announced.
Kirk Abernathy, of Orchard Place, said he was carrying the gun for protection on Jan. 9, 2012 on Suffolk Street because of his ongoing dispute with rival gang members, according to the District Attorney's Office.
Abernathy faces 15 years in prison when sentenced July 1 as a second felony offender before State Supreme Court Justice M. William Boller.
District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III credited Buffalo police officers Michael Acquino and Mark Hamilton for getting "another gun-toting thug … off the street and on the way to state prison."

Helping people. Saving gorillas.™
Dian Fossey founded the Karisoke™ Research Center on Sept. 24, 1967, in Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park between Mt. Karisimbi and Mt. Visoke. She recalled this historic event in her book, Gorillas in the Mist: "Little did I know then, that by setting up two small tents in the wilderness of the Virungas I had launched the beginnings of what was to become an internationally renowned research station eventually to be utilized by students and scientists from many countries."
At that time, she feared that the mountain gorilla might become extinct by the end of the 20th century, as her mentor, Dr. Louis Leakey, had warned. A census published in 1981 found that the population had fallen to 242 individuals, from a 1960 estimate of 400-500. Now, so many years later, Fossey might be surprised to learn that some 480 mountain gorillas are known to inhabit the Virunga mountains (according to a 2010 census), a significant increase since her time. She might be even more surprised to learn that Karisoke™ not only survived her own murder in 1985 as well as years of civil strife, but also that it has expanded tremendously over the past few decades. From humble beginnings, Karisoke™ has become a world-class scientific and conservation institution, providing daily protection and heading long-term studies of the mountain gorillas. In addition, Karisoke™ provides the human communities in the area with education and health programs.
The story of Karisoke™ is one of enormous perseverance, courage and vision, on the part of hundreds of international and Rwandan staff and researchers, and supporters from all over the world, as well as Fossey herself.
Dian Fossey's original focus was on the study of mountain gorillas. She pioneered gorilla habituation, identification, tracking, range mapping, and other primate research techniques in use today. However, she soon realized that if the gorillas were to survive, they would require protection as well. Among the threats were poachers who set snares in the forest, cattle grazing, and human encroachment into the forest. She initiated "active conservation" practices in the form of armed anti-poaching patrols. After one of her favorite gorillas — Digit — was killed by poachers, Fossey established the "Digit Fund," to support active conservation of the gorillas. After her death, the Digit Fund was renamed the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International (Fossey Fund), which continues to operate Karisoke™ today.
The 1990s were a particularly challenging period for Karisoke™ as civil war, genocide and more civil war devastated Rwanda and forced the staff to evacuate numerous times. The buildings were looted and destroyed. Most Karisoke™ trackers lost their homes and possessions in the war and some saw family members murdered. Some were imprisoned when they returned home. "They have endured beyond what we can imagine," wrote Dr. Dieter Steklis, Karisoke's director in the early '90s.
By 1998 Karisoke's expatriate staff had evacuated five times. The facility was destroyed three times, rebuilt twice, and eventually relocated to Musanze (formerly Ruhengeri). Despite the constant threat of war, Karisoke™ continued to upgrade its capacity for scientific research through new technology and new partnerships with local authorities and other conservation organizations. Somehow, the gorillas survived the war years in good condition, despite the greatly increased number of snares set by poachers.
As Rwanda recovered from war, Karisoke™ built new facilities and continued to create new research and community partnerships.

After An Arrest: Understanding the Courts: A Q&A interview with Dr. Catherine Cerulli
Catherine Cerulli is the director of the Susan B. Anthony Center for Women's Leadership and the Laboratory of Interpersonal Violence and Victimization (LIVV), and an associate professor in Department of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester. Her team researches court processes and special populations, and we asked her to answer common questions about what people can expect if they arrested and need to appear in court.
Can you tell me a little bit about yourself and your research?
I am a former prosecutor and I have been working on issues surrounding domestic violence and child abuse since 1983. I do limited criminal defense work, usually when it involves someone arrested because of an abuse history. My team studies court processes related to special populations, including family court and criminal court. I focus primarily on domestic violence, suicide and homicide.
What can an individual expect if he or she is going to court for the first time?
Everyone's case is individual. It depends on whether the individual is arrested at the scene or if they are given notice to appear. If they are arrested and are being held there has be an arraignment within a certain time frame. Depending on the nature of the case, there is a mandatory timeframe during which they have to appear before a judge. During the first appearance, they will be read their rights and hear the charges against them. There will be a discussion about their attorney—whether they have an attorney, whether they can afford one, whether one will be provided for them. If the case involves an assault against another person, they may have a restraining order issued against them.
Tell me about courthouses.
Depending on the location, courthouses can very hectic and chaotic relative to sounds and smells. It is often difficult to secure parking and challenging to get through security clearance. Sometimes, the court has metal detectors and people will have to take off belts and remove objects from their pockets. For a person with mental illness, that can be very distressing.
It's best to think about those things in advance and if possible plan to get to the courthouse early. If possible, have a friend drop off and pick up at the door. You also want to be thinking about the time of day your court appearance is. You may be in court a very long time. If the person has to take medication on a schedule or if there is an issue with eating—if someone might become hypoglycemic if they don't eat—plan to bring medication and food with you.
Are there times when a defendant does not have to appear in court?
If there's a reason why you think that it would be best for you or your loved one not to appear in court, check in with the defense attorney and see if any accommodation can be made. There are times that the defendant's appearance can be waived.[i] For example, if the family is trying to get someone into residential treatment, the attorney may be able to inform the judge that the person is in treatment. There are certain times an appearance can't be waived, like a probable cause hearing.
If an individual with mental illness is arrested, what are the possible reasons their case might be dismissed?
Some specialty courts, including mental health courts, might put the patient into a diversion program. The diversion program usually ends up with a plea bargain and the individual in a treatment plan.
There are times when the charges are dropped because a motion is dismissed in the interest of justice. People should not lose hope – families hear that a loved one has been arrested and they panic. But it's important to know that it's a very complex system full of nuances and the job of the defense attorney is to figure out how to resolve the case in the interest of the client.
How can family members advocate for a loved one with mental illness who has been arrested?
I think you want the defense attorney to do their best. It's important to be a resource to the defense attorney. It's important for the family to know that the defense attorney works for the client and they have an obligation to the client—they are not doing you a favor. I think a lot of people, especially with a public defender, they really worry they have a bad attorney. That's not really true; public defenders are some of the best attorneys that there are because they are in court every day. They know what they are doing. Families think if an attorney is free, he must be bad, but that's not true. Do not despair.
Families should to be sure to connect with their attorney before the court appearance if possible. This is particularly challenging for families, because the attorney is often in court all day. To reach them, call early in the morning or during the lunch hour. If you can't reach the attorney, call their office and ask for a fax number or email address and send the information that way.
Let the attorney know the client's history and see if they can advocate getting their family member into a specialty court. There are lots of specialty courts: mental health courts, veterans courts, domestic violence courts, DWI courts and drug courts.
It's important for family members to know that the legal privilege that prevents attorneys form talking to the family doesn't prohibit families from talking to the attorney. There can still be one-way communication. You can still let the attorney know what's going on. A lot of people think that if the attorney won't talk to them, that they can't talk to the attorney

[i] In these situations, the attorney will represent the client's interests during the court appearance.

Fuel Up to Play 60, Processors Team Up on 'Breakfast Blitz' Program
Fuel Up to Play 60, Processors Team Up on 'Breakfast Blitz' Program
Fuel Up to Play 60 – the in-school nutrition and physical activity program created by the National Dairy Council® and National Football League® – is teaming with dairy processors to give students greater access to a healthy breakfast including dairy.
As part of the "Breakfast Blitz," the national Milk Mustache "got milk?®" Campaign will provide $250,000 to enhance breakfast opportunities in schools that implement Fuel Up to Play 60. Consumers can vote at www.MilkMustache.com to help direct $1,000 grants to local schools when they purchase milk through Feb. 17.
Fuel Up to Play 60, established to address childhood obesity through healthy eating and physical activity, is in more than 73,000 schools. The Breakfast Blitz encourages students to eat nutritious foods such as dairy. Studies show that students who eat breakfast have better scores on math, reading and standardized tests and have fewer absences.
"A dairy-friendly breakfast helps start the day for students," said Paul Rovey, Arizona dairy producer and chair of Dairy Management Inc.™, which manages the national dairy checkoff. "The Breakfast Blitz helps students who aren't getting enough to eat at home receive the necessary nutrients to be at their best in the classroom."
To help kick off the Breakfast Blitz, New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz conducted media interviews across the country and posted promotional comments on Facebook and Twitter.

Can you afford to wait for a repair or an ordinary rebuild of your machine, when you can get factory remanufactured exchange components in "like-new" condition?
The nice thing about the exchange system is that you don't have to wait to get back the same component. At the first sign of a problem, you simply order a factory remanufactured exchange component from your Volvo dealer. If the component isn't already at the dealer, Volvo's efficient shipping network makes sure that the component soon is on location. You don't have to wait for repairs and you can resume productive operation with a minimum of downtime. You then send the defective component to Volvo Construction Equipment for factory remanufacturing.

"What an amazing year you've had!" the organization Tweeted following the Fashion Star judge's announcement on Tuesday.
Simpson – who lost more than 50 lbs. with Weight Watchers – "will not be following the program during the pregnancy while her weight and well-being are monitored by her obstetrician, as is recommended for any woman during pregnancy," Weight Watchers says in a statement.
The statement adds: "After she gives birth, Jessica and her doctor will decide when she may resume following the Weight Watchers program."
The organization also released a new television advertisement on Wednesday with Simpson sharing the news of her second pregnancy with viewers.
In the spot, the 32-year-old, who gave birth to daughter Maxwell seven months ago, reveals her new body.
"This year is all about new beginnings for me. I lost over 50 pounds on Weight Watchers and did not have to be perfect to do it. Being healthy has become a part of who I am, which is great timing because I'm having another baby," she says. "I feel like I'm on top of the world!"
In a statement released Wednesday, Weight Watchers' Senior Vice President of Marketing Cheryl Callan praised Simpson's efforts.
"We've seen first-hand that Jessica has a refreshed outlook on food, activity and the importance of developing healthy habits, which we hope will guide her through this next pregnancy and beyond," she said. "She has come a long way and we know her story and success will continue to inspire others."
