It's unlikely that my children will ever ask me who Mark Cuban was, which truly is a shame. Because if they ever were to inquire, I could shoot them back this carefully rehearsed answer: Mark Cuban was the greatest thing to ever happen to the NBA, period. Always walking the fine line between astounding luck and brilliant insight, Mark Cuban has improved his team while greatly benefiting the league as well. And while most people cannot look past their own envy of the man, those who do will find a true visionary.
Part of embracing Mark Cuban involves getting past the jealousy. And there are plenty of reasons why every man should be jealous of him. You could start with the fact that God gave Mark amazing dance moves, which allowed him to give Disco lessons while a student at Indiana and thus finance a fledgling career. He may also be the only man in history to actually make money on a chain letter — over $1,000, back when that meant something to him. Or, one could jump forward a few years, when Mark was barely thirty years old, and he was somehow able to convince Yahoo! that a small, cheesy internet broadcasting company with a couple hundred employees was worth $5.7 billion. So let's face it: Mark Cuban got lucky. He worked hard, made the most of his breaks, but fortune smiled upon him big time.
But aren't there a lot of rich people who we could just as easily detest? Absolutely. Rather than think about how much money Mark Cuban has accrued, one should instead focus on what he's done with it. After making his billions, Mark Cuban decided to take a path that most tycoons somehow overlook. Typically, some man will find himself with a Scrooge-sized money bin and squander that cash on something as needless as philanthropy, the absurd art of taking hard-earned money, hiring lawyers to minimize every inkling of tax, and then giving it to the needy, just as the government would have without all of the intermediary steps. Not Mark. He decided to make a project out of something much more important than inoculations, classrooms, or potable drinking water. That project was the Dallas Mavericks — and in the process, he committed to improving not just one basketball team, but all basketball teams.
Cuban's formula for the Mavericks was brilliantly simple: take a bunch of tall, white foreigners and let them fight it out for supremacy. Thus, the majority of Cuban's tenure focused upon the titanic power struggle between Shawn Bradley, Steve Nash, and Dirk Nowitzki, the latter of whom evidently won. Mark Cuban then rode Dirk to his first ever NBA finals, a mere six years after buying the league's biggest joke. Like every other move in his career, Mark Cuban made the impossible look obvious and easy to attain. Basketball is fundamentally about getting the best single player, whether that be Michael Jordan, Shaq, Tim Duncan, or now Dirk Nowitzki. On a small court, having one superstar is better than two. Cuban had to choose between two young standouts, and though some might question his wisdom in keeping Dirk over Nash, the fact is that he made the right choice in simply picking one.
Mark Cuban also leveraged his simple-is-better philosophy and applied it where the league hurt most, in its officiating. He castigated the men in stripes while on and off the court, the former being particularly impressive since Mark Cuban is not a player. When the New York Daily News asked him how he would shape officiating in the game, he gave an answer that was elegant in its brevity: "I think the officials have the ability to do a great job in the NBA. My problem is how the organization is managed. It's no different than any other business. Wherever you work, the better your manager, the better you are able to do your job. I think everyone's heart is in the right place, we just need to get some more help in that area."
Mark didn't just talk about how simple the problem was, though, he acted. In 2002, Cuban hired a team of consultants to sit at every basketball game and keep track of the officials just as they might monitor worker productivity in any other office. The gimmick worked. Since accountability underlines every action that a professional takes, the game's officials actually tried harder, and the results were noticed later that year. According to the maverick owner, "Since the All-Star break, defensive three-second calls are way up, flagrant fouls are way up. I can assure you it's not because they are all of a sudden just happening more since the All-Star Game."
The NBA's most senior leadership also found reason to applaud Mark Cuban's contributions. While they did not approve of Mark's tactics, they did agree that his presence boosted the league's fortunes. At the height of Cuban's lobbying, David Stern made this admission: "There is no question that sometimes any owner can engage in conduct that commissioners would find less than pleasing. But I appreciate that if you're spending 110 percent of your time on your team, that's going to do two things: It's going to make your team's marketing and presence much better, and it's going to cause you to raise a few things that are going to get on a commissioner's nerves. But I think the benefit from one is worth the burden of two." In short, Mark Cuban knew what he could get away with, and he knew that the league would tolerate his mini-revolution so long as he brought in the dough. He made exactly as much noise as he could get away with. This proves a point that's critical in appreciating Mark Cuban: you may not like his tactics, but you have to respect the results that they produce.
It would be easy to say that Cuban's contributions have known no bounds: he made a joke team into a contender, proactively improved the game's officiating, and pushed marketing to the forefront of the league. But his greatest gift to basketball fans came when he changed the way that all of us watch the game — in HDTV. Few know that Mark Cuban was one of the great proponents of higher quality television. What Al Gore was to the internet, Mark Cuban was to maximizing plasma screens. While other men were content to enjoy a Mavericks game as displayed on four hundred and eighty lines of resolution, Mark Cuban said "No." He demanded a thousand of them, and the world listened. When the Hollywood Reporter questioned the benefits, Mark answered back with his now famous conclusion, "Sports, movies, documentaries -- all entertainment is better in HD, period." And he was right. Chalk another one up for Mark Cuban.
With so many accomplishments tucked under his 32-inch belt, every basketball fan has the responsibility to love Mark Cuban. Sure, some of these fans may also want to be him or at least catch the same number of huge breaks, but such materialistic desires overshadow what matters most: he has taken his wealth and done something extraordinary with it, something that we can all appreciate. He has made the NBA into a better league.
Some Love for Cuban

Johannesburg - Takuma, the mascot for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) soccer tournament, will become the mascot for all sport in South Africa, the sports ministry has announced.
A hippo who wears a yellow sports kit, Takuma was designed by a pupil at Dikgorwaneng Primary School, in Hammanskraal, and was unveiled as the AFCON mascot at a draw last month in Durban.
"We are taking this mascot forward as a sports mascot," Deputy Sports Minister Gert Oosthuizen said on Tuesday.
"Takuma will be the mascot you will see for many years to come."
Oosthuizen was speaking at the prize giving, in Hammanskraal, of the schools competition for the design of the mascot.
Shingo, the mascot which placed second in the competition, would be used for school sports in future, and Hagozonke, which was third, would be the mascot for the promotion of drug-free sport.
Dikgorwaneng Primary received soccer and netball equipment for winning the competition, and a R1 000 food hamper.

who does it, who's tried it, how's it worked for your and most importantly what holster did you use??

....didn't like it. I have a SP 101 in 3 1/8" bbl config and figure it was too heavy for pocket carry. But more importantly, was difficult to draw without snagging on the lining of my pocket.
I carry my Mak in my shorts pocket - and my snubby Taurus 85 but have an IWB holster for the Ruger that I think is the best option for carrying it. Not to say I couldn't carry in a (large!) pocket, just that the gun I think is meant for diffeent options.
September 7, 2007, 10:52 AM
My SP101 is just too heavy to pocket. I prefer the thunderwear (http://www.thunderwear.com) I bought for it, much more comfy, a little harder to get at, but better than IWB for me. I can carry it IWB, but it just disappears and I'm not so conscious of it in the thunderwear. It's all day comfy that way even with a Hogue grip. If I wanna pocket a revolver, I'll go to my Taurus M85UL, 17 ounces, barely notice the extra weight.
I've been wearing that thunderwear a couple of months now and I really wonder why I never tried it before. At first, I thought it a little awkward to draw from, but you get real used to it after a while. It's a little tougher getting to it while seated, its main draw back. You sorta have to stiffen up to draw while seated, but it's doable.
September 7, 2007, 10:55 AM
I have big jeans...I have a 40 inch waist and wear 44-32 in jeans. So I have had good luck with bigger pockets. I feel comfortable carrying my spurless SP101 in my back pocket and in front pocket. although the front pocket isnt as smooth for me to draw and I print more due to my shirts not being long enough.
Its not comfortable by any means but I have done it in the past...I perfer my IWB don hume holster anyday
Rover 'n Rugers
September 7, 2007, 12:30 PM
I will second the above. I have a 42" waist and am about 6'-1". The jeans I wear have large pockets albeit a bit less than some of my dress pants. I carry a 2.25" SP spurless hammer in a Kramer pocket holster. It works. If one can pocket carry a 22.5 oz Model 60 a 24.5 oz SP should not make much difference. Now, an aluminum or scandium frame would be definitely far lighter.
September 7, 2007, 01:48 PM
I have carried a 2 1/8 spur hammer SP with Houges in the front pocket, no holster, when a belt holster isn't an option. As others have stated, it is a little on the heavy side, but very possible....I would rather be uncomfortable and armed.
Also, pocket carry is far too slow for weapon presentation and is reserved only when absolutely necessary.
September 7, 2007, 01:50 PM
It's OK for a heavy winter jacket, but only if you get it bobbed. It's vastly easier to pocket carry a DS or J Frame size revolver and they actually work well in a pocket holster.
September 7, 2007, 01:53 PM
Slow? I submit that it's the fastest presentation you could possibly use with a gun like the 642 smith or my Kel Tec P11. You're walkin' along with your hand in your pocket on the gun already. No one's the wiser. All you have to do is draw and fire. With IWB, you must lift shirt with off hand, grab gun and draw, all without having the gun in your grasp, much slower. I prefer pocket carry, but the SP is a little large. I normally carry my P11 or M85UL in a pocket. I'm only 210 and 6 feet. LOL. The pockets are big enough for the gun with carpenter's jeans, I just don't like my jeans saggin' that much, the weight bothers me while the weight of a sub 20 ounce gun doesn't. To each his own. There's plenty of ways to carry concealed. You just have to determine what's best for YOU.
September 7, 2007, 04:49 PM
I use Kramer or Galco leather pocket rigs, and occasionally Uncle Mike's synthetic, to pocket an SP101, depending on the size and shape of the pocket. As for the wisdom of using pocket carry, well, it is situational. When seated, or bent at the waist, pocket carry is slow to deploy. When walking along, through a bad area, hands in pockets, on high alert, pocket carry can be the single best way to go. If, while walking, the hand leaves the pocket to pick the nose, and the bad guy strikes at that moment, the defender will naturally bend at the waist, and that pocket gun will be quite difficult to access. Pick your nose with your offside hand! ;) There is nothing wrong with changing carry mode to suit the circumstance. A pocketed snubby can be moved into a different rig when getting into a vehicle; perhaps a shoulder rig or IWB worn forward of the hip. Or, of course, carry more than one snubby, one for the pocket, and one somewhere else. :)
September 7, 2007, 05:34 PM
A bobbed hammer isn't necessary. Practice your draws with your thumb over the hammer spur.
The Lone Haranguer
September 7, 2007, 11:20 PM
I tried my 2 1/4" .357 (spurred hammer) in a High Noon Pocket Grabber. It was just a little too bulky and heavy. Of note was that I never snagged the exposed hammer during practice draws, the holster coming up high enough to shield it somewhat.
September 7, 2007, 11:27 PM
The pocket holster from www.andrewsleather.com evenly spreads the weight around the pocket since it's nicely rounded to follow the pocket contours.
September 8, 2007, 01:35 AM
I use Mika's pocket holster for my 2.25" 101 and like it better than any other pocket holster I've used. Here is a link to his site: http://www.frontiernet.net/~akim/index.html
I carry in jeans, dockers, 5.11's, shorts, etc using this holster. No problem. Yeah it's a little heavy, but that weight also helps it shoot very well. I'll take a little weight for improved shootability.
September 8, 2007, 02:37 AM
Tried it for with a 2.25" spurless in a custom leather pocket holster. Way too heavy in a pocket for my taste.
September 8, 2007, 04:40 PM
I've been carrying the DAO in a UM #3 pocket holster for almost a year. I've got a Mika round cut on order and it should be an improvment over the UM.
September 8, 2007, 10:17 PM
Pleated-front khaki slacks and an Uncle Mike's pocket holster do pretty well for me until I sit down and the pants go tight across my thigh. Never had anyone comment and if I am at a restaurant, I just put my napkin over that leg.
September 9, 2007, 12:57 AM
I have worn out an Uncle mike's pocket holster before and now use the DeSantis Nemisis. I like 'em both and have pocket carried an SP101 longer than I care to admit (over 7 years now)
September 9, 2007, 03:31 AM
Wrangler Riata slacks work well with pocketed SP101 snubbies. I have carried a pair of them that way quite a few times.

September 9, 2007, 04:25 AM
When deciding what pocket revolver to purchase a few months ago, I went to a friend (on THR, Action_Can_Do) who owns a 3 1/8" SP101. I tried it out in the pocket, but I was less than pleased. I settled on a 642; it best filled the role I wanted. There was also a Taurus (650?) that was just as good. Also, last week I received the Desantis Nemesis, and that has turned out to be a fine holster. Without one I was uncomfortable with the gun moving around in the pocket and with the possibility that a hole could develop in my pants over time from parts sticking out, especially the barrel (a common problem of pants that I own and keys I used to carry).
SP101 for pocket carry? Works for some, not for others, but definitely worth a try.
September 9, 2007, 04:37 AM
Tried pocket carry way back when. I felt the gun was too heavy for that and belonged on the belt.
Since it was going on the belt, I went with a bigger gun. I pocket carry a S&W 442 and my belt gun is a S&W N-Frame 4"er. That's Off-Duty. On-Duty I carry the crap they issue me.
September 10, 2007, 08:38 PM
I usually carry a Sig 239 inside the waistband, but when I do not want to put on a big IWB holster and I'm just wearing shorts, I use my 2.25", DAO SP-101 with a Desantis Nemesis pocket carry holster. Pocket carry is now the only way that I carry the SP-101, even though I have two other holsters for it, inlcuding this really nice Hoffner's holster (http://www.hoffners.com/min4a.jpg).
I am 6" and about 230#. It is a little heavy in my pocket, but not enough that it bothers me at all. It conceals pretty darned well. I just have to make sure that I have a shirt that covers the pocket opening. For me, this is the most relaxed and flexible carry method. It's very comfortable for me, even more so than my Sig 239 most times. This is perfect carry here in Texas when it's warm most of the year and shorts are the preferred pants choice.
Here are some pics. The first pic is of the SP-101 in a Desantis Nemesis holster in my right pocket. The second and third pics are of the Pistol, the Nemesis holster and a Bianchi speed strip.

From an interview between Tom Spurgeon and Mark Waid, talking about working as an editor at DC Comics under executive editor Dick Giordano;
I was actually offered this job about four or five years ago at DC. Dan for a while wanted to move on to a different part of the company. He invited me to take the job, and I went up there and had serious negotiations. We talked about it. Unfortunately, it fell through on some counts that had nothing to do with me. For that week I thought that was the next step of my career? Tom, I felt ten feet tall every day. I really felt like, "Man, this is it. I've been watching the Yankees since I was six and I'm finally on the mound, pitching." Not because I felt, "Everything is broke and I have to fix it." Or "Oh boy, I get to play with all of these fabulous toys." It wasn't quite that simple. It was more of a sense of having gotten to a point where I'm almost as good a teacher as I am a writer. I yearn to be able to work with younger creators and pass along what I know. That doesn't mean I have all the right answers, and doesn't mean I'm necessarily going to teach the right things. I'm going to be wrong in a lot of my philosophy, too. That's just the way it is. I enjoy that part of the job. I would have enjoyed the idea of sitting down with that stable of characters and that stable of writers and having a meaningful dialogue about here's what I think you're trying to do, and here's how I might be able to help you accomplish that. I think I have enough experience under my belt that you can take my suggestions seriously.
A DC Comics run by Mark Waid would have been an interesting beast. He might have let himself write Superman as a treat. Grant Morrison would probably got more of his pitches though. And there would probably have been less JMS.

Too early to even speculate. My brain is tired.
The men (based on last year's announcement) = 60 spots total

1. Javier Fernandez, ESP
2. Yuzuru Hanyu, JPN
3. Denis Ten, KAZ

5. Nam Nguyen, CAN
6. Misha Ge, UZE
---- skaters above this line are seeded

Prospective picks outside the hosts:
Alexei Bychenko, ISR
Ronald Lam, HKG
Michael Christian Martinez, PHI
Ivan Righini, ITA,
Jin Seo Kim, KOR
June Hyong Lee, KOR
Deniss Vasiljevs, LAT
The real question is, which front-runner will Patrick Chan be paired up against early in the season?
2014 Chan vs Hanyu was pretty epic. They went against each other 5 times that season!
I'm going to take a guess at my seeded skater picks
Skate America: Denis Ten (1-3), Jason Brown (4-6)
Skate Canada: Javier Fernandez (1-3), Nam Nguyen or Misha Ge (4-6)
Cup of China: Yuzuru Hanyu (1-3), Misha Ge or Nam Nguyen (4-6)
Trophee Eric Bompard: Javier Fernandez (1-3), Nam Nguyen (4-6)
Rostelecom Cup: Denis Ten (1-3), Misha Ge (4-6)
NHK Trophy: Yuzuru Hanyu (1-3), Jason Brown (4-6)
I think Patrick will get Skate Canada and Trophee Eric Bompard, like he did in 2013.

mrs p you are always so informative... even when it comes to early speculation cheerio!
Amazing stuff Mrs. P!
So, I am curious. Why is everyone so sure Chan is coming back? Also, at what point would we start seeing evidence or rather start getting suspicious?

The LSU Tigers will have a shakeup on defense after defensive stars declare for the 2013 NFL draft.
Normally, that would be worrisome for Tiger fans, but the depth on defense isn't a joke. After last year's great linebacker recruiting class and the experience gained in the secondary in 2012, LSU will be just fine.
Assuming that Barkevious Mingo, Sam Montgomery, Bennie Logan, Kevin Minter, Tharold Simon and Eric Reid all turn pro, this is the projected defensive depth chart for 2013.
Who will step up to become the new faces of this LSU defense?

He doesn't want Saturday's playoff game against Kansas City to change the routine, so he's imploring the Colts to make this week business as usual.

Playoff veterans know better. Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles remembers losing two fumbles in his first playoff game.
And NFL sacks champ Robert Mathis insists players need to have fun.

I absolutely love this entire practice - from making an appointment, to all the staff and the time Dr. Machemer invests in each patient - they are all wonderful! I know we have the best possible care we can get and i'm so grateful they're local.
I love love dr machemer. Shes amazing with my boys shes been seeing my oldest since he was little and he is now 6. Shes also seeing my 4 month old. I have told some many people about her and recomended her and they now love her office. She is an overall amazing doctor I wouldnt ask for a better doctor.
When we first started with Dr. Machemer last year I was not impressed with the office receptionist but I really liked Dr. M and her nurse is great. Dr. M has since hired a new receptionist who is wonderful. This is a small practice but she has made arrangements to see the kids on short notice when sick or if she didn't have same day appointments got us in at the local urgent care clinic. She talks to my teen sons and has a great manner with them. We have had to wait at times but then we have also had times where she fit us in and I am sensitive to the fact that as a medical practice things come up and complications happen.
Dr. Machemer is a wonderful doctor. My daughter has been with her since she was 6 months old and she is now about to turn 6. She has always been on top of my daughterâs development referring me to specialist as needed. Along with give great personal advice and making sure I was taking care of my own health.
Trying to get an appointment or to schedule an appointment seems to be a very difficult task as there is only one physician on staff and the office management does not seem to be compassionate or capable to handle the dynamics of management. Even in the case where the children were sick, they was no avenue to be able to see the doctor and we were told to take the children to ER or another office. When calling to talk about issues with the children, there was no available nurse to discuss the illness and/ or possible temporary relief or remedy. I will try to give this practice a chance, but if it turns out that consideration for the well-being of the children are being ignored or discredit due to the burden of the doctor's staff over-scheduling her days then I will move on to a doctor or practice that will care.
Overall, I think she is a good dotor to my son... But, the wait time is HORRIBLE. I dont think i EVER was in and out less then an hour. I think the LONGEST was 2 hours. But thats insane to be sitting in an office that long with an infant. I know she is a great doctor but maybe they should space out appointments better so people dont wait too long.
LOVE HER! Fantastic bedside manners, very understanding of any and all concerns about my daughter. Promptly returns phone calls even calls to check on my daughter. Wonderful Staff, very happy with this office!
Dr. Kristi immediately diagnosed my 3 year old of having asthma. We had no idea that our toddler was suffering so badly because other pediatricians told us differently. Dr. Kristi's bedside manner is wonderful. She calls me on my cell to check on our 3 year old. My husband and I are beyond satitisfied with her professionalism, guidance, and expertise!

LALS Students in the Spotlight
Raven Byars
My name is Raven Byars and I am a junior majoring in Spanish, Latin American & Latino Studies, and Pan African Studies. This semester I am studying abroad in Lima, Peru with a program called CIEE and I'm having the time of my life!
Lima is a giant city filled with the mixture of Latin American, Asian, and African cultures. I have also spent my fair share of time outside of Lima to explore some beautiful nature sites. Perú is such a geographically diverse country of mountains, coast, dessert, and jungle. All are equally beautiful in different ways and I am still discovering something new about this country everyday!
Mariah Levine
Marie-Elena Ottman
This summer, Marie-Elena Ottman, an LALS Graduate Certificate and MFA candidate, completed the LALS Graduate Internship with Doors to Hope. One of her projects was directing children to create bilingual, illustrated storybooks.
She also collaborated with her Fine Arts Professor, Mary Carothers, on the Mayor's art exhibit, Connect/Disconnect, on the Waterfront. There's an LALS and Panamanian connection to this story; Marie-Elena is Panamanian and Mary Carothers received an LALS Lewis Fellowship in 2010 to collaborate with the Impacto Photography Project in Bocas del Toro, Panamá. Professor Carothers also discovered a Panamanian connection with their Waterfront exhibit: "Local historian Tom Owen informed me that this area was once known as Little Panama. Bananas were shipped from Panama, up the Mississippi, on to the Ohio River and then distributed from this area to various states in the Midwest," she said.
Maggie Whittle
As a first year graduate student in the Linguistics department, I decided to add on the LALS Graduate Certificate because of my previous experience as a Latino Studies Minor during my undergraduate years. Before beginning school, I worked as Program Assistant at the Backside Learning Center, a center on the backside of Churchill Downs devoted to enhancing the lives of the workers on the backside, many of which are not from the United States. Later, again before my studies began, I accepted a job as an ESL and Spanish Instructor at Bowen Elementary School, and have loved every minute of it! I owe my previous experience as an intern at the Backside Learning Center through my LALS minor as a key component of my resume in finding these positions. Moreover, during this first semester working toward the LALS Graduate Certificate, I have been an intern at three different nonprofit medical facilities: The Family Community Clinic, Kentucky Racing Health Services Center, and the GLOH Clinic through the UofL Medical School. The clinics offer free health services to the uninsured. This internship has truly opened my eyes to the many discouraged Spanish-speakers in our community due to their every day health concerns and the obstacles of language. I feel that my internship has impacted not only the lives of the Spanish-speakers, but my life as well. I enjoy every evening I spend at the clinics and, though upsetting at times, know that I am helping to mend the bridge in language borders. Although it has been quite a juggle this semester with a new job, my graduate classes, and my internships, I would not change anything for the world!
Jerome Soldo
Greetings from Chile! My choice to major in LALS coupled with my desire to travel to South America has relocated me to Osorno, Chile, located in the Lakes District of northern Patagonia. I am attending the Universidad de Los Lagos for the duration of the fall 2013 semester, where I live in a home stay with a hilarious Chilean couple and three roommates from Spain and Chile. So far, I've been busy dissecting sentences to their grammatical cores, reading poems by Chilean icon Pablo Neruda, and analyzing Latin America's unique literary movements through my four Spanish-language classes. Furthermore, I am reading novels on my Kindle by famous South American authors to expand my understanding of the continent's sociopolitical framework, and I am supplementing my academics with extracurricular volunteer and research opportunities. But schoolwork isn't all that consumes a study abroad experience, if but a third of it.
My three-day weekends are reserved for travel around Chile, and an easy border crossing opens up southern Argentina as well. I've already visited museums and barhopped in Santiago, eaten fresh seafood alongside sea lions in Puerto Montt, trekked in snowshoes through the Cañi Nature Sanctuary, and swam in a freezing-cold pool at the base of an 85 meter waterfall outside of Pucón. Next weekend is already booked with a pre-celebration for Chile's independence day (which is still a month away) with Chilean friends from class, skiing some of South America's best slopes, and biking a circuit around lakes with black sand beaches. My fellow international students from Spain, Mexico, Colombia, France, and Germany have made great travel partners, and we are becoming a really close group of friends as well.
For those who are considering studying abroad, I do want to point out that the experience is not devoid of hard times. My drastic lifestyle change has been exciting by all means, but I already miss simple things that I seem to always have taken for granted, like my daily bagel/coffee from Einstein's and jogging the streets of Old Louisville... not to mention my close relationships with friends and family. I am often faced with a language barrier, and it is still tough to keep up with the conversation at the dinner table or express myself in a deep conversation. However, I welcome these challenges. My Spanish repertoire increases rapidly, I make friends from all over the world, and I have become stronger, more independent, and more appreciative of the opportunities I have been given and will continue to pursue. If anybody reading this is considering studying abroad in Chile or in any other Spanish-speaking country, know that I'm always available via Facebook or Email and would love to help out with any questions or doubts you may have. It is a truly incredible experience and you must take the chance to experience it for yourselves!
Que les vaya bien,

As discussed in the Pew-MacArthur First Results Initiative Report, Evidence-Based Policymaking: A Guide for Effective Government:
"Evidence-based policymaking uses the best available research and information on program results to guide decisions at all stages of the policy process and in each branch of government. It identifies what works, highlights gaps where evidence of program effectiveness is lacking, enables policymakers to use evidence in budget and policy decisions, and relies on systems to monitor implementation and measure key outcomes, using the information to continually improve program performance."
This approach reduces wasteful spending, expands innovative programs, and strengthens accountability.
An outcome measure is an indicator of an agency's effectiveness in achieving a stated mission or intended purpose. A performance measure is a quantitative or qualitative characterization of performance. Mission-critical data is supporting data in areas strategically linked to outcome and performance measures.
National data specific to pretrial program outcomes and performance would help individual programs measure their effectiveness in achieving their goals and objectives and in meeting the expectations of their justice systems. Consistent with public-and private-sector best practices, pretrial services program outcome measures, performance measures, and mission-critical data would tie into the individual agency's mission, local justice system needs, state and local bail laws, and national pretrial release standards.
Over the last 10 years, the Illinois Department of Corrections (DOC) has seen a steady increase in the number of inmates under its supervision. With a capacity of 33,663 inmates and more than 49,000 inmates currently under its control, the DOC is 70 percent over capacity. The majority of this increase comes from non-violent felonies (mostly associated with drug or property crimes) and the DOC has little room in its $1.3 billion budget for recidivism reduction initiatives. With an understanding that business as usual was unsustainable both in human and fiscal costs; a bipartisan group of legislators passed, and Governor Pat Quinn signed, the Illinois Crime Reduction Act of 2009.
Program evaluation is an invaluable aid in planning, developing, and managing programs. To be effective, however, program evaluation efforts must be placed within the broader context of program management. A flexible capacity for internal self-evaluation is fundamental to the management and ongoing improvement of programs. Click a topic below to learn more about the evaluation process:
States spend an average of $7.1 million a day keeping youth in residential facilities, according to estimates from a 2009 Justice Policy Institute study. These facilities are often expensive and vary greatly in quality, rehabilitative methodology and service provision. In many states, reliance on residential treatment facilities and other out of home placements have impacted juvenile justice agencies ability to support or enhance other community based alternatives.
According to a 2010 report from the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA), 2.3 million inmates in U.S. prisons, or 65 percent, meet the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)-IV medical criteria for alcohol or other drug abuse and addiction. Another 20 percent, 458,000, are substance involved meaning they were under the influence of alcohol or other drugs at the time of their offense even though they don't meet the DSM-IV medical criteria for alcohol and other drug abuse.
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) within criminal justice systems have historically followed a fee for service model. Examples can be found in behavioral health, victim's services and program evaluation. In the last decade, however, there has been a substantial expansion in how justice systems and private sector organizations partner to achieve common goals. Through the work of the MacArthur Foundation's Models for Change and the Justice Reinvestment initiatives the paradigm has been shifting in how public and private partners allocate resources, structure service contracts and frame organizational goals.
According to the American Bar Association (ABA), anywhere from 60 to 90 percent of criminal defendants need publicly-funded indigent defense. Many of these individuals enter the justice system with a litany of personal, legal and behavioral health issues that have contributed both to their indigent status and their involvement in the justice system. While public defenders are chronically over worked and underfunded; there is also an understanding that without directed efforts aimed at addressing clients underlying issues they will continue to cycle through state and local criminal justice and behavioral health systems. To address this issue, the San Francisco Office of the Public Defender has integrated social work practices into their efforts to address both their clients legal issues and those underlying criminogenic factors that initially brought them into contact with the justice system.
There are over 1 million gang members and more than 20,000 active gangs in the United States, according to the FBI's most recent National Gang Threat Assessment. The assessment estimates that up to 80 percent of crimes in many communities can be linked to gangs and gang members. In addition to drug trafficking, gangs are involved in human trafficking, weapons trafficking, property crimes and other violent crime ranging from assault to murder. While law enforcement works to combat this issue at the local, state and federal levels, the education and juvenile justice communities have pushed for increased emphasis on prevention and intervention. Although enforcement is a major part of addressing a community's gang problem; without an emphasis on prevention and interventions focused on helping those who are already gang involved, there is a risk of addressing a symptom while ignoring the underlying problem.
Expiring funds, lapsed funds, de-obligated funds, known by many different names, reverted grant funds are unused or expiring funding returned by a sub-grantee to the awarding agency. While many State Administering Agencies (SAAs) apply these funds to their next fiscal year grant solicitation, some SAAs have formalized policies and procedures to re-release these funds as a mini-grant. These mini-grants often have much reduced award ceilings and award lengths and do not provide an opportunity for continuation funding. In today's promising practices we look at how three SAAs are leveraging reverted funds to enhance local capacity, expand their organizational reach and help localities address unforeseen challenges.

Actor John C. Reilly brings character to concert at Miller Caves

In retrospect, after the very first such event courtesy of John C. Reilly and Friends, the historic location was a small club waiting to happen: The painted backdrop of cavorting (presumably) Germans had retro style, as did the overhead lamps and the high-arched ceiling. »Read Full Article(4)

There are plenty of traditional, nontraditional, and interdisciplinary fields of engineering that might just match up with your interests, whether they involve design, architecture, law, business, geography, psychology, or education. As an acoustical engineer, you might develop a state-of-the-art sound studio, or as a sports engineer you might create equipment that tests the performance of athletes. You might also work in "human factors engineering," a fascinating field that takes human behavior and psychology into account in developing products and systems.
The average annual salary for engineers in special and interdisciplinary fields varies significantly depending on the specialty, but for entry-level engineers it ranges around $53,000 to $61,645.*

Even after being on call for twenty four hours, Dr. Ball stayed over to deliver my daughter. She had to perform a C-section. I had no complications and the baby is great. She has great bed side manner, is very informative, and very knowledgeable.I would highly recommend her to any family or friends.
I had the worst experience at this office. Go somewhere else.
Love her!
Dr. Ball is amazing! I switched Doctors to be able to deliver in the hospital I wanted in 2011. She sat with me and answered all of my questions and put me at ease. It was easy to get an appointment. Even though she wasn't on call she monitored me from home while I was at the hospital and she came in to do an immediate C-section at midnight. I was so grateful for that! My second pregnancy was more difficult and high risk, and she again has been wonderful and amazing! I am so sad that I have to leave her since I am moving again, but she has helped me and is available until I have to leave. Her nurses always got back to me quickly and answered my questions or got with Dr. Ball and called me back quickly. I fully recommend Dr. Ball to anyone! She is really amazing!
I wanted to switch to a femal doctor and found Dr. Ball. She is very nice and the exams were always done in a professional manner. She spent time answering my questions. The only 2 negatives I would have are that 1. her nurse, Lisa, called in the wrong type of birth control pills and I had to spend $75 because you can't return them once they are sent to you by Medco. I am on back-to-back therapy with my birth control pills and it took Lisa several calls to Medco to get the RX right. When I asked for the $75 I had to spend to go towards office visits, I was told that would not be possible. She also snapped at me when I said that the birth control pills they called in for me were $75 (and not the type I had been on) and said "Well, I can give you a $5 prescription for birth control pills from Walmart". That is why I will not be back. If I am going to trust someone to look in my private area, they need to be respectful and sensitive, sorry.
Just had to take care of a patient that suffered a surgical complication from this doctor and seems that she had no idea the gravity of her patient's potentially life-threatening complication, or how to handle the situation. I do not know this physician personally but I am shocked that she is board certified... she did NOT properly address or handle her postoperative patient. She is dangerous and I would not recommend anyone to have a surgical procedure with this physician.
Excellent bedside manner. Personally called to check on me after she was out of town when I had to have emergency surgery. Very open to natural childbirth and letting you make requests with her ahead of time so the hospital knows when you get there what you want. Love her. Would recommend her to any and all.
Dr. Ball is awesome. Saw me at short notice as a new patient, spent plenty of time with me to make sure I had all my questions answered. Has followed up to make sure things are okay. Her nurse Lisa is great too. Unlike some offices, when I called I almost always spoke to a real person and not someone's answering machine or a receptionist who is clueless.OGA's office in the Houston Women's Hospital complex is impressive. testing facilities on site.I would definitely recommend Dr. Ball.
My wife's first visits were for regular check ups and trivial issues, and she was extremely happy every after visit. So sometime after....she decide to have Dr Ball monitoring hers first pregnancy. The doctor and staff were again top rate service. At the very end my wife asked the doctor to do and the delivery. Well Dr Ball she made the impossible to clear hers schedule and ...all we can say is that she is our lifetime doctor. Thank you Dr. Ball for everything.
I really love Dr. Ball. She's a fantastic doctor and I've always felt like I am in excellent hands. The staff is always friendly, I never have to wait more than 10 minutes to be called back and when Dr. Ball comes in she always makes sure to take time and answer any questions or concerns I have thoroughly. She remembers me and details about me every time. I wouldn't go to any other doctor.
I love Dr. Ball - don't let the star rating for the other things skew the perception (half of the questions are about the general office staff so I'm not sure why they apply to the doctor). Generally speaking I have had longer wait times but they are always aware and apologetic if that's the case. I also make sure to call well ahead of time to schedule my appointment so that it is scheduled on time without a wait. In terms of care, Dr. Ball was my first wellness doctor and although my mother swore by her male doctor I insisted on having a female, and I'm so glad I chose Dr. Ball. She is compassionate, makes sure her patients (especially new ones) understand what is going to happen during the appointment, and makes you feel very comfortable given the situation. She also always asks about any problems,which luckily I have not had much of. She seemed to diagnose a small problem I had very well during my last visit, but I'm not sure about any follow up as of yet (so I didn't rate). However overall, I do not see myself switching doctors any time soon and although I am young, I hope Dr. Ball is around if/when I have children! I WILL also comment on the billing department - there was a time where my sample somehow got lost and I had to go back to have it re-done...Dr. Ball assured me I wouldn't have to pay the co-pay again, but when trying to explain what happened to the billing department they told me that there was no way to basically not claim the visit and that the doctors don't understand the process. In my opinion, IF that was true, the office should have just bit the bullet since it was their mistake and not claimed my visit at all, but I was indeed charged for both visits.
I love Dr. Ball. She is very knowledgeable and answers all of my questions. She was my general doctor and then helped me through my pregnancy. Very easy to talk to and I look forward to my visits! Good listener and willing to help with anything. I recommend her to anyone.
Dr Ball is a great doctor with a great personality. However, I totally agree with the billing comment. The person in charge of that department needs to get it together.. They are a hot mess and refused me an appointment because of an error on their part. That billing department is a mess.. But Dr. Ball is great.
Dr.Ball was so nice and caring!! Awesome!!
Dr. Ball is a typical busy OBGYN. She was cordial and the well-woman's appointment was quick and easy. However, the person in charge of billing is NOT good. I fought with this office for 9 months about filing with my insurance company. They kept saying I had no insurance and even tried to take me to collections. I kept calling the Dr.'s office explaining that I did have insurance. Finally, after 9 months of arguing they realized their error and everything was resolved.

The Volatility of a Firm's Assets and the Leverage Effect

AFA 2010 Atlanta Meetings Paper
We investigate the volatility of firms' assets in contrast to existing studies that focus on equity volatility. We estimate asset volatility using a comprehensive dataset on the market values of corporate security returns. We find significant differences between the properties of equity and asset volatilities with implications for several important areas of finance. First, financial leverage has a large influence on equity volatility. Second, leverage and asset volatility have permanent and transitory effects respectively on equity volatility, helping explain the short- and long-run dynamics of equity volatility. Third, we analyze and compare the cross section of asset versus equity returns.

Greg, while sitting at the computer thinking that I needed a drink, I looked up and saw this recipe was the photo of the day. I had grapes, I had lemons and I had ice, so I threw it all in the blender to give it a try. It's really great! I let it go quite a while in the blender to get rid of the chunks, it had just the right sweet/tart blend. Thanks so much for a terrific drink! Now, I am thinking.....vodka!!
This sounds wonderful! I try to avoid sugar and love lemonade so I can't wait to get home to my blender and try this.

Guitar Player Tests Out a G6120 Brian Setzer Nashville
Posted: March 10, 2016
Guitar Player's Michael Molenda tested out a Gretsch G6120 Brian Setzer Nashville for the magazine's February issue.
In the review, Molenda runs through the instrument's construction, control switches, pickups, playability and tones.
"No matter what sound you're rocking, string-to-string articulation is exceptional. The Nashville may look like a retro, rockabilly twang machine— and it is—but it's also a guitar that can product beautiful jazz timbres, blitzkrieg-ing punk sounds, hefty classic-rock tones, and even some funky, R&B style skanks."
Molenda wrapped up his stellar review with this:
"If I didn't need food, sleep, or gainful employment, I could play this thing 24/7 and be a very happy camper. The only bummer about today's Gretsches is that they're expensive little jewels. But if you can save up the bucks, these retro beauties bleed rock and roll. The G6120 Brian Setzer Nashville ups that ante even further by delivering modern, vintage, and versatile tones with attitude to burn."

What Inspired the Lone Bellow's Brian Elmquist to Play Guitar?
Posted: December 22, 2015
Brooklyn-based indie folk rock trio the Lone Bellow started off 2015 with the release of sophomore album Then Came the Morning.
Having written more than 40 songs while out on the road touring, the band teamed with the National guitarist Aaron Dessner on the recording effort, spending two weeks at Dreamland in upstate New York, a nineteenth-century church that had been converted into a homey studio. There, the singers found the space to inspire the emotional gravity necessary for the material and the acoustics they were looking for.
"These are true stories," says guitarist Brian Elmquist. "These aren't things we made up. We tried to write some songs that had nothing to do with our personal stories, but we just didn't respond to them. But we're best buds, so we know each others' personal stuff and trust each other to figure out what needs to be said and how to say it."
For instance, Elmquist wrote "Call to War" about his own struggles during his twenties, but gave the song to Kanene Pipkin to sing on the album.
"The content is painful and brutal, but the imagery, the vocals, they build something delicate and ethereal," she said. "That kind of contrast illuminates the true beauty and power of a song."
When Gretsch caught up with Elmquist, however, we enjoyed hearing about a happier memory from his youth.
"So for Christmas my dad wanted to get me a guitar because I had been talking about it and I had picked up other people's guitars," recalled Elmquist. "He told me he would buy me a guitar for Christmas but I was like, 'No I want a Nintendo,' or some games or some clothes or shoes or something stupid. Right after that, I knew there was a guitar upstairs in the attic so I went up in the attic and got him to help me restring.
"But the reason I wanted to (play) was I watched Slash play the lead in 'November Rain' and that was the first thing I sat in front of and learned how to play every note. I couldn't play it for real until I was in my 20s, but him standing on that piano at the end of 'November Rain' is just … and like when the train is coming by. Who wouldn't want to play music?"
Elmquist also explains what turned him on to Gretsch guitars, and reveals that "Heaven Don't Call Me Home" was a tribute to the rockabilly style of Brian Setzer.

Brian Setzer to Release New Christmas Album
Posted: September 28, 2015
On Oct. 16, Gretsch signature artists Brian Setzer and the Brian Setzer Orchestra will release Rockin' Rudolph, their first studio Christmas album in 10 years.
The 18-piece band will support the album with a major concert run—the "12th Annual Christmas Rocks! Tour"— delivering the rocking and colorful holiday extravaganza they are known for.
Additionally, fans will have the opportunity to purchase a limited edition, numbered deluxe package of the album via PledgeMusic.com.
"It's been about 10 years since I made a Christmas record," said Setzer. "It [Christmas music] just seems to get more popular every year. They're classic songs and you wonder after a couple records how many of them are left. Once you dig in you find, wow! I've haven't done 'Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree,' you know. I've never done 'Here Comes Santa Claus!' Ones that everyone knows and are still out there. These songs are great songs. It doesn't matter if they're holiday songs or when they were written, they're just great songs.
"So the trick is to make them sound hip. Some of them are eternally hip, you know, so you don't have to do too much."
Produced by Peter Collins (Rush, Bon Jovi, Alice Cooper, etc.) and recorded in both Nashville and Hollywood, the 12-track effort includes highlights such as "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," "Yabba-Dabba Yuletide," and "Rockabilly Rudolph," among other notable Christmas classic tunes with Setzer's trademark guitar work and vocal stylings paired with the Brian Setzer Orchestra's rockin' big-band horn arrangements.
