SHE was the wild girl they tried desperately to get back on the rails. But they lost her in an instant this week.
A girl who, so full of life and love, was suddenly gone in an explosion of twisted metal.
Samantha Neilsen's heartbroken family have told how they tried everything to keep her safe after her reckless behaviour became dangerous.
They had even enlisted the help of police to give Samantha a scare in the hope she would change.

At least they didn't kill an innocent person. Some people you just can't help, I've been there. I had to give up, it was affecting my family and I aint having that. I'd say my ex-friend is now on the streets, a hopeless drug addict. You have to switch off and not care, we have enough problems of our own, these people are selfish and I know my life is better without her in it. She may come back one day and I'll re-assess then, but the few times she tried in the past I had to turn my back coz she hadn't hit the bottom, was still heading down, and I wasn't letting my son watch that and think its in any way acceptable.

I lost a brother young in a car accident too. The problem with the live fast, die young mentality is that no one actually believes that the "die young" part will happen, until it happens to someone they love

It boils down to "all about me". These self-centred brats need to be occupied doing good things. Reading the riot act wont work and neither will the bleatings of "experts". Stop looking for excuses and start implementing strategies that impact. Instead of a navel gazing wake on Wednesday, go find someone who'd appreciate a hand. Take a young invalid for a walk in the park, read to someone who can't, spend some time with a lonely neighbour. Too much "me" and not enough "thee" these days.

My parents would have kicked me out of home had I done what she did. I would be told to eat what I was given or go without and to clean my room so that its spotless. Had I stolen my mum's car she would have call the cops and have me charged with theft and I believed her when she said it! Its called discipline and as a parent you have to follow through. Poor parenting. Soft parenting breed brats and we're seeing it with all the rude, self serving little punks.

All of her friends should forced to personally see her mangled body to show how "invulnerable" they really are and told "You could be next". If they are traumatised then finally the message might finally get through to them.

This is becoming a staple in the news - teens going out on a joy ride and then dying. They know of this possibility and still choose to be idiots. Sorry to use the word but that is all they are. And irresponsible persons at that. They could have hit an unsuspecting person or car during their tripping. Like I always say in this type of accident, I am happy it's only them that they killed and not some other innocent person/s. Nowadays with teens like these getting on the road is always a gamble for your life.

So often when someone dies all we hear is about the good in them. Its natural to want to remember them that way, but in reality none of us are perfect and our kids go through rough patches. Sam's story has really shaken me and will stick with me for a long time. She was a real girl, funny, wild and very much loved, the way teenagers should be. My own daughter went through a stage at 16 where we just didnt relate. Thankfully she came through as most of us do. I think Sam's family will get through to people because their story is so very very real. My heart breaks for them.

The saddest part of this story is that her parents found out that their daughter had died... via facebook... Condolences to the family.

Dee of Brisbane Posted at 9:13 AM January 10, 2013
Good grief, and the silly other girl died in the car crash too. Two families hurt and devastated , what an awful way to end. But I suppose one should be grateful that Sam didn't cause an accident with another car with a family in it! What an absolute twit of a girl. These poor parents tried hard to control this idiot, but these days the kids think they can just do as they please.

I'm sorry for her friends and family, but in a literal sense, with driver's like her, it becomes a her or us situation. I don't want to be caught up in an accident with attitudes to other road-users like hers.

Sincere condolences for your loss. It sounds like you did everything you could to try and give her a wake up call, I guess the only good thing that can come of it now is that hopefully other kids will learn from it. I also think language is important; sorry but she stole and crashed a car she didn't borrow it and have an accident.
Comment 16 of 83
Kirsa Posted at 9:57 AM January 10, 2013
I am so very sorry to her parents and family, but I hope the wake up call is for other parents to start parenting. These kids think they are just above any form of disipline or society's rules. It starts when they are toddlers and indulged in every way. By the time they are teenagers they have never been told no, or suck it up, or eat what you are given. Spoilt and with no responsibilities other than beind 'wild' and 'fun' they live in a fantasy world. Hard, cold reality is too late when you are dead. Parents - take note - start parenting and applying tough love early. Make your teenagers work for their phones. Make them work for party clothes and going out. Teach them self disipline, self control, self care. Teach them that with every right comes a responsibiliy. Every action has a consequence. It's YOUR job as a parent!

You can choose discipline or regret. On this occasion regret was the choice. It seems to be a common theme these days of a young self indulgent generation.

A little bit of respect for the Neilsen family - its hard enough losing a child but then to talk openly about it take a lot of guts - I know the family personally and they are beautiful - they dont deserve some of your comments above - have a heart people!!! RIP Sam and thinking of you all :(

A lot of harsh comments here today. I applaud the family for being so honest. Usually when somebody dies all the family say is "oh so and so was an angel" ad nauseum. I feel for the family. I hope they don't read the comments here.

Sad loss of Canberra Posted at 10:08 AM January 10, 2013
I am sorry for your tragic loss. Parents should never bury their children. For some, their lives are fast and furious, and the lessons and warnings that appear along the way dont work. Utlimately, fate finds them and gives them the hardest lesson. I hope she has slowed down in heaven!! For her friends, please listen to you parents, heed the warnings in life and remember your friend by changing your ways - thats what she would want now!
Comment 21 of 83
Marie Posted at 10:09 AM January 10, 2013
Some of these comments are unjustifiably harsh. The parents have had the strength to come out with their story instead of claiming their daughter was a perfectly innocent saint. They have obviously been struggling with this issue for some time. You may try and try and try however if the teenager doesn't want to change what are you left with? Throw them out of home for a life on the streets and possibly worse problems to follow? Lock them in their room? These parents have shared a heart breaking story and should be commended for their frankness and efforts to get their daughter on a safer path.

Leonie Posted at 10:14 AM January 10, 2013
While I feel sorry for the family, you can't help people who don't want help. Sometimes you just have to leave people to make and hopefully learn from their own mistakes. Unfortunately for this girl, her stupidity resulted in her death so she wasn't able to learn. Hopefully others will learn from this though.
Comment 23 of 83
Gary of Brisbane Posted at 10:14 AM January 10, 2013
Its a terrible thing, the perception by youth that they are invincible, its OK to break the rules and borrowing a car for a joyride is not theft. I bet society wishes it had an answer to these questions. I feel for the family that is left and thankfully no third party was injured during this spate of madness.

Walshy of Hunter Posted at 10:21 AM January 10, 2013
How very sad, a very brave family to tell their story so honestly, I feel some of the comments are really hurtful to the family who have told their story in hope of saving another young life. So many young people go through rough patches, and many survive and go on to be really caring responsible adults. Don't be so quick to judge.

WorriedMum of canberra Posted at 10:22 AM January 10, 2013
oldefellah of the coalface: I like your suggestion of taking the teens out to help. Especially to help someone who is a victim of a car crash. I think it would shake them up more than a wake. It may even shake some sense into them. We have all read studies that say teenager's brains aren't fully developed and they haven't got the action/consequence understanding yet. Visual proof may be a turning point. Thanks for the idea.

a l h of Australia Posted at 10:37 AM January 10, 2013
Communication is really lost in the world, unless it may involve requests for money. Which therefore may have to be in person. A very sad way to know the fate of another person via Facebook. Especially a family member. Lots of people today think they can do as they please and that is just not right. Not much discipline is one of the reasons bad things happen, and maybe even directed towards gender. Seems on tv at times the bad people are the men trying to act macho and the women who for some unknown reason like this behaviour and that is not being sexist, it really looks that way at times. Almost glorified. Not so sure it is peer pressure more like bully pressure,as real friends would not push others into bad situations.

John of Australia Posted at 10:39 AM January 10, 2013
Condolences to the family. We all do silly things when we are young, some just ake it a few steps further than others. Unfortunatley in this Left Wing centred world parents are no longer allowed to punish their children. In my day i would have been flogged to within an inch of my life and grounded for months on end. Now we can nly use words and even them the PC brigade will make sure you are not to stern. It is joke, you have the Left wing PC brigade to thank for society going this way. RIP and hopefully people will learn frm this terrible incident, unight and push back against the PC world that we are becoming.

It appears as if a lot of you never made a bad decision when you were 16. It must be nice to sit up on your pedestal in your perfect lives and look down and judge a dead teenager who made some mistakes. Grow up you soulless heartless hypocrites.

Tony of Sydney Posted at 10:49 AM January 10, 2013
It's a sad story but lets face it she could have easily killed an innocent person. Who do we blame? Well growing up in an Italian family I received one hell of a beating for skipping school once and never did it again. We are way too soft these days and this is what happens.

Brian of Sydney Posted at 10:50 AM January 10, 2013
I will be honest i feel for the family to loose a child but lets be realistic i am just glad the only people that died were the people in that car, it could have been a lot worse imagine if they had took out a family with a child or anybody else for that matter. its time these kids started to realise others live in this world and its not all about them and their selfish desires. I think kids who have been in trouble with the law should be sent away to boot camp for a year or two learn all about real life and not be pampered pooches by their parents.

what an article, thank you so much to the family for sharing in this difficult time. it was so honest, and sincere and I hope it really hits the mark for anyone out there on the roads who feels like they are invincible. she sounds like a truly beautiful girl and i'm so sorry she won't be around, it sounds like you really tried... For those thinking she should have been kicked out of home, unconditional love surely was the best option for preventing this - and i'd encourage parents to always stick to that. My condolences to you and the community and thank you again for your strength in sharing your grief and a valuable lesson.

I too have been through a similar story with an out of control daughter who made poor life choices. We tried for many years to help her but she continued to go from one bad choice to another until October 1st, 2010. The police knocked on our door at 3am to say that she and 3 others had died in a head on car crash. My heart broke and remains broken, it's a grief that I can never recover from, the only relief is knowing that she can no longer be hurt, her violent partner can no longer hurt her and she now rests in the peace that in life seemed to pass her by. To Samantha Neilson's family, my heartfelt condolences. I truly do know your suffering and pain. Rest peacefully Samantha.

Dave of Melbourne Posted at 11:03 AM January 10, 2013
Some very very sad comments above. The story is not about Sam being a "bad" child, or the parents didb't parent her, or what should be done. It is about a young life that was taken too soon, and the affects that it has now taken on the people that loved her that she has left behind. All for making one silly mistake. In an incident like this, there are many "innocent" people that are affected - The locals that saw the accident, the Police officers, the Ambo's the passenger etc. They are all innocent people who will be affected for life. We should not be judging the character of the family or the way they operate. They quite clearly deeply loved their daughter and sister. RIP to Sam and the other young girl who lost her life. And my thoughts to all those affected my this horrible loss.

The sanctimonious comments by cruel people astound me. My they must be just perfect and wonderful. Teenagers have ALWAYS been like this. Some of my highschool friends left the world early too. Some due to their own stupid actions, sometimes they were just in the wrong place. We need to warn and care and keep on trying..... Guess what? Some teenagers will still ignore us. Condolences...... Even a difficult child is someones baby.

Mia of Mackay Posted at 11:14 AM January 10, 2013
Tears rolled down my face as I read this story. What a brave family to open up in the hope of awakening and possibly saving another teen in similar circumstances. Her lead up story reminds me of my nieces, who thankfully seems to be learning that she is not unbreakable. I wish that the same was true for Samantha and her friend. Best wishes to the 2 families involved.

AC of Brisbane Posted at 11:20 AM January 10, 2013
I'm surprised and saddened by comments disparaging the character of a 16 year old child and condemning her parents. Yes, she made silly teenage mistakes, but that doesn't mean that she was a bad person. It's tragic that this cost her her life. However, most teenagers who act like this eventually sort themselves out, and it seems that the family did their very best to discipline appropriately, support and encourage her to make better choices. I'm very sorry for their loss.

Rest in Peace Sam. You are Love, You are light, You are joy and you are now in the loving healing arms of god. You are not your actions I am offended by the insults and name calling towards you by people on this site. You were wild and your actions were often dangerous and inappropriate, which ultimately cost you and your dear friends life. My thoughts and prayer are with your family and friends. Let us all learn from Sams mistake. Bless her soul. xo

Jess of Sydney Posted at 11:38 AM January 10, 2013
Disgraceful! I'm referring to some comments on this story. How brave of the family to be honest. They didn't had to be. This poor young girl was a typical teenage girl. At that age you think your friends are going to be your friends forever. I was a wild child but by 21 I had a scholarship at a major firm and a distinction average degree. If I hadn't been a wild child I probably wouldn't have achieved what I have to date. My parents had boundaries but not excessive. Like this story if I did something that was really stupid there would be consequences like calling the cops. It sounded like she was finally going through the change I went through as a part of growing up. Unfortunately in the process of his change she did one last stupid act that she never got a second chance for.

Lauren Anderson of Melbourne Posted at 11:40 AM January 10, 2013
What a brave story to tell. It is hard for anyone to have to talk about their child's death but to do it honestly? That's incredible. Too often we hear about these deaths as tragic accidents that were not preventable, but it looks like Samantha was headed down this path for a long time. Sadly what has happened has happened but perhaps other teenagers and parents can try to divert a similar thing from happening again, but even if they cannot, this story made me pause and think about this girl. Perhaps the most we can hope for is that we do not forget stories like Sam's. That we think, reflect and always strive to prevent this from happening.

Tony Brown of Ballarat Posted at 11:40 AM January 10, 2013
Every young adult makes poor choices that in later life if they look back will say but for sheer luck there go I. Many of us are lucky and survive. Some don't. Even though I advocate strong discipline and hope that it helps. Nobody can guard against the thoughtless spur of the moment urges that effect some young adults. It is impossible to blame anyone for such a horrible event. I feel very sorry for the families and friends left behind.

Time Traveller of Gold Coast Australia Posted at 11:41 AM January 10, 2013
I hope your grief and pain can be put to a positive outcome. Helping Sam's friends understand their behaviour and bravado can all come undone in a second is a good start. You just shake your head and wonder what it takes to get through to youth that they are not bullet proof. Perhaps a few more old fashioned rules, and controlling of the use of devices that connect them might be in order. No cell phones until 18 or only between the hours of x and X ? Not as crazy as it sounds, we lived with out them. No one has boundaries and rules anymore, and more importantly, consequences that are enforced when they break rules. I would like to extend sympathy to the family of these two beautiful girls and hope they are able to work towards making some good out of this tragedy.

The Green Eye of WA Posted at 11:45 AM January 10, 2013
I can only say, thank god it was a pole. I spent 3 years in an out of hospitals because a 17 year old took a car without consent and smashed into me head on. Fourteen year old passenger died and my life changed forever. As with this case the guy was a serial offender. It would never have happened had the law been seriously applied as intended. Young people need standards applying not just talking about. Sometimes you need to be cruel to be kind.

I feel bad about the abusive comments here directed at Sam. Calling her stupid, twit, thief etc. And calling her parents bad parents and incapable of discipline. No doubt her parents will be reading these comments. I feel for them. It sounds to me like they tried to do what they could, but you can only do so much with a troubled teen. The part about taking her to the police to have her rights read to her and to have them interrogate her to shake her up and wake her up was excellent. More parents should think along those lines. The fact that they have told their story here also shows that they are conscientious parents. But I think that some commenters here have neglected the fact that kids are not only the product of their home environment, but also of their social environment. And look at society these days. It's a "me first" culture of selfishness, and this rubs off on teens. These days you can't give your kid the wooden spoon and send them to their room. Punishment doesn't work like it used to, unfortunately, because of the do-gooder effect. The problem starts with society itself.

Yes, people, we all know she was a silly little girl who did silly, irresponsible things. But her parents already know that and they have acknowledged it. They don't need you or anyone else callously rubbing their noses in it. Tim & family, you have my most sincere sympathy in the loss of your lovely daughter and sister and I applaud your courage in speaking out so honestly about this tragedy.

Jo of Perth Posted at 12:33 PM January 10, 2013
A tear nearly slipped out when i read she hitched a ride with her sister to work and the girls laughed the whole way. This is someone's little girl, little sister. We've all done stupid things in our lives, all young teens feel superior and invincible. Admittedly/thankfully this is not a common result, but it's great now to be an adult and have 20:20 hind sight. Those who have chastised the family, or even said it was good they were killed lack empathy in a disturbing way.

Jan of Brisbane Posted at 12:38 PM January 10, 2013
Icehot, give these parents a break, just reading the article you can tell they tried the best they could and everyone knows how hard is it to control/educate teenagers. Should you not be scared of your parents' threats and went ahead and did those things, and your parents were to follow through with their threats, one would have to question whether being kicked out of your home and go without any parental guidance, or end up with a criminal record for the rest of your life is really best for you. No one is perfect, including parents, all you can ask for is that they tried their best and gave all they could.

Lara Campbell of Sydney Posted at 12:41 PM January 10, 2013
I find this incredibly sad, I know a lot of my friends went through stages like this at 16 and came out the other side. What a terrible loss for their families that will never be the same and so very brave of them to come out and discuss their efforts to get their daughter on the straight and narrow. What I resent here is all you narrow-minded twits above passing judgement on the girls and their parents. Yes Samantha was reckless and yes I may have decided to parent her differently but they did the best they could and they have lost a child they nurtured and looked after for 16yrs have some empathy and respect.

Soverysad of Australia Posted at 12:42 PM January 10, 2013
My deepest sympathy to Samantha's family. To the majority of the commentators I am pretty disgusted in your complete and lack of empathy for this young girl. The saddest part about this story is that Sam is gone and her parents will never get to see her grow up and grow old. Car accidents happen everyday and yes they can be prevented but that is why they are called accidents - a split second decision can change everything. My cousin died in a car accident 10 years ago as a 22 year old who had been a wild-child turned good who loved his mum, dad and sisters. Our family has never been the same. Her parents are truly brave for telling their story and for trying to help other young people from ending up the same way.

Brett, your'e a heartless nob who thinks he has never done a thing wrong in your life..... the whole thing is tragic and I can understand that others do not want to get in the way of a teenage "supanova" like this but they are out there every where......some make it ....some dont. My condolences to the family as they now have to live with the heartache.

Not a happy story. Lax discipline but even with the most discipline in the world, some children can't change. Perhaps this is a mental health issue? Teenagers do go through depression - this behaviour could be seen as an temporary escape? Maybe being enrolled as a volunteer in a trauma ward / emergency dept in a hospital would knock some sense into them. Was the teen on the organ donation list? Something good could at least come out of such a tragedy.

Too all those who are being insulting and negative towards this girl who is now lost to the world, remember you were once a teenager as well. Unlike you however, this girl unfortunately paid the ultimate price for wanting to have a bit of fun, so please show a bit more respect for the dead. Somethings in life protecting someone isn't shielding them away from the world, its about showing them what to do when thing start going down hill. As parents we all try to guide our children the best we can, sometimes its little odd instances that end in tragedy, no fault to the parents own.

It is all well and good having a 'live fast' attitude, that is until you kill yourself and hurt the people that love you as this silly girl and her friend have done. My most sincere condolences to the family who are the ones really suffering from this.

Luke...really..name calling is the best you can do? No mate, I've made a lot of mistakes in my 52 years..17 year olds dont have the same mental capacity, if you had any idea, you would know their brains are still developing...but I guess you dont have kids, or an understanding of what making mistakes, however tragic,is like...might a case of whoever is without sin ect...peace out brother..

What Lilly & Zoe said ^^^. The rest of you are obviously perfect, with perfect children? Or, let me guess, NO children? The lack of sympathy for the parents of a dead teenaged girl, not to mention calling Sam' an 'idiot', gives away more about your true character than you could possibly realise. That is more of a sad reflection on society than anything Sam' did.

Brett, Dee and "sad"... I just cannot believe how insensitive, selfish and shallow, not to mention hurtful, your comments can be! I am heartbroken for the terrible losses and my deepest feelings of condolence go to the bereaved. Thank you to Courier-Mail and news.com for publishing this long article, which hopefully will help all parents and teenagers who read it to be ware of recklessly "living fast, living young" and take necessary precautions with their loved ones.

I have great respect and sympathy for this family. To admit your daughter was not perfect, to be realistic about her faults and to use your experiences to help others is the most honest, open and giving act i have heard for some time. I hope you find peace

Scout of Ipswich. Posted at 1:54 PM January 10, 2013
I knew Sam. She will never wear her senior's jersey nor graduate with us. However this is not common, you never hear about the millions of students who grow up fine because they won't make news. Do not stereotype all young people like this, and demand we grow up "just like I did, and I turned out fine!" It is not the 'evils' of technology, nor the media that led her astray, her parents tried their best to show her the light,If they could have done better they would have, but she was a teenager. She just didn't have the years under her belt to understand. Teenagers have always been risk taking, since the dawn of time - the brain is not fully developed yet. It is simply unfortunate that she had access to that car that night. She had dreams, plans and goals for her future, and was in a position where she was able to fulfil them. Her death was a huge loss to those that loved her most. The only light in this is that hopefully people may not just accept the loss, but learn from this tragedy. It's preached so many times, but it seems it needs a demonstration of someone close for it to sink in - Be safe around vehicles, do not mix drugs alcohol and driving. Realise how fragile you are.

The negative comments on this story are an example of what is wrong with our society, you can hide behind your e-name and say such hurtful things you would not have the guts to say to peoples faces. No one cares for there fellow man anymore. The bullying mentality thrives!! My condolences to the families
Comment 79 of 83
I bet no lessons will be learned, sadly Posted at 2:16 PM January 10, 2013
To those commenting that teenagers have always been like this - really? My parents actually disciplined me and my siblings. We had the fear of God put into us and even if we had done 1 silly thing and been caught out - we would have been in fear of our lives if our parents found out we ever did it again. I might have been a silly sullen moody teenager once but I never EVER did blatantly stupid things that put either my, or other people's lives at risk. So please don't label all teenagers as reckless stupid selfish risk takers. While I feel sorry for this silly girl's family, I thank God that no innocent lives were taken by these girl's stupidity.

Sadly her friends were part of the problem. If her friends had of help dad keep a track instead of helping her avoid him, she may be alive today. Her friends should have been watching her, not encouraging her. I think dad is wasting his time trying to make her friends change frankly.

Jan of Brisbane. My point exactly. Oh we can't discipline teens because it would risk a criminal record or it would hurt their feelings- how pathetic!! Placing some accountability on teens would kick the stark cold hard reality of life into the self serving little brats and may even save their life. Its called good parenting. In the cold harsh world, kids are forced into labor, even forced into the slave trade! Thousands of kids go hungry and work to support their families in impoverished nations. Our teens need to understand how good they have things and most of all, learn some RESPECT for themselves, their parents and society. Tough love. They need it!

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Tyler Wilson completed 77 of his 84 throws as representatives from all 32 NFL teams watched Arkansas' pro day on Friday.
Wilson, who also took part in last month's NFL combine in Indianapolis, led an orchestrated passing drill that included 62 routes. He threw to several of his former teammates - including wide receiver Cobi Hamilton, tight end Chris Gragg and running backs Knile Davis and Dennis Johnson.
Six of Wilson's misses were drops by receivers. He only misfired on one attempt, a fade route to the corner of the end zone that sailed over Hamilton's head.
Wilson, who was the All-Southeastern Conference quarterback as a junior and threw for 307.9 yards per game last season, is considered one of the top quarterbacks available in April's NFL draft.

text: Cassini skims through Titan's upper atmosphere Science 22 June 10 by Lisa Grossman Tweet http://www.flickr.com/photos/nasa-jpl/3834316408/Flickr CC: NASA JPL The Cassini spacecraft made its deepest dip ever into the atmosphere of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, at 8:28 PM Eastern time on 20 June. The data it collected will help determine whether the moon has its own magnetic field."For Titan scientists, this is one of the most anticipated flybys of the whole mission," wrote space physicist Cesar Bertucci of the Institute of Astronomy and Space Physics in Buenos Aires, Argentina in a blog post. That's saying something, as Cassini has already orbited Saturn for six years and may last seven more.The flyby took Cassini within 547 miles of Titan's surface, about two and a half times the altitude of the International Space Station. Although this distance shaved only 43 miles off the next nearest approach, the flyby was the first to take the spacecraft below Titan's ionosphere, a layer of charged particles in the upper atmosphere. The ionosphere shielded the spacecraft from Saturn's much larger magnetic field, allowing scientists the first hints of whether Titan has a magnetic field of its own.Earlier measurements by the Voyager spacecraft and an earlier Cassini flyby at 590 miles showed that Titan's magnetic field is weak at best, and certainly no match for Saturn's. But that doesn't mean it's not there, Bertucci said. "We'd like to know what the internal field might be, no matter how small."Measuring the field will provide insight into the moon's internal structure. In planets like Saturn or Earth, long-lived magnetic fields are driven by currents in a metallic, liquid core. These currents arise as the planet rotates. With its thick atmosphere of nitrogen and methane and its liquid hydrocarbon lakes, Titan resembles the early Earth more than any other body in the solar system, making the moon an ideal natural laboratory for studying the origins of life. If Cassini picks up a magnetic field, it might mean that Titan, like Earth, has a liquid core.But it might not. There are two other explanations for a magnetic Titan, Bertucci wrote. Like Mars, Titan may once have had a liquid core that has since frozen, leaving behind residual magnetism in the crust. Or, if a conducting layer like an ocean lies on or below the crust, part of the surface could have temporarily picked up some of Saturn's magnetism before Cassini got there. The data should finish its downlink to Earth by the end of today, and a preliminary report on all the measurements from the flyby should be available by the end of the week, Bertucci told Wired.

Victory over Brian McDermott's men means United are still in the running to win the FA Cup, Barclays Premier League and UEFA Champions League this season – adding fuel to the fire that another treble could be on the cards.
Although there are plenty of games left to play and nobody is getting carried away, Anderson believes United have enough quality and strength to achieve the seemingly impossible.
"It could happen, it happened one time and it could happen again," Ando explained. "We have a good team, we have a good squad and if everyone remains focused and concentrated then we can win everything.
"Every competition is very important. Everyone has to be on top form – but we have a good team, a good squad with lots of players. It would be fantastic for me to say to my family and my kids that I won the FA Cup with Manchester United."

► The crystal structure of Rpn2, a key subunit of the 26S proteasome, has a distinctive fold ► Rpn2 has a toroidal PC, extended N-terminal, and globular C-terminal domain ► The Rpn2 PC domain is formed from eleven PC repeats and two axial α-helices ► Electron microscopy shows that Rpn1 adopts a similar structure to Rpn2
The 26S proteasome proteolyses ubiquitylated proteins and is assembled from a 20S proteolytic core and two 19S regulatory particles (19S-RP). The 19S-RP scaffolding subunits Rpn1 and Rpn2 function to engage ubiquitin receptors. Rpn1 and Rpn2 are characterized by eleven tandem copies of a 35–40 amino acid repeat motif termed the proteasome/cyclosome (PC) repeat. Here, we reveal that the eleven PC repeats of Rpn2 form a closed toroidal structure incorporating two concentric rings of α helices encircling two axial α helices. A rod-like N-terminal domain consisting of 17 stacked α helices and a globular C-terminal domain emerge from one face of the toroid. Rpn13, an ubiquitin receptor, binds to the C-terminal 20 residues of Rpn2. Rpn1 adopts a similar conformation to Rpn2 but differs in the orientation of its rod-like N-terminal domain. These findings have implications for understanding how 19S-RPs recognize, unfold, and deliver ubiquitylated substrates to the 20S core.

VICKSBURG, Miss. (AP) - The fate of the remaining metal pieces taken from the steamboat Sprague, which was destroyed by fire in 1974, is in the hands of Vicksburg officials.
The Board of Mayor and Aldermen is considering whether to display them or declare some of items surplus and sell them as scrap.
The boat's salvaged metal parts are stored at the city water department warehouse and the old government fleet yard, which is owned by the Warren County Port Commission.
The Vicksburg Post reports (http://bit.ly/Mp1QHH ) that city and port officials do not know what parts of the Sprague are stored at the fleet yard.
Port officials want to lease a portion of the fleet yard to a local businessman. That would require removing the metal parts of the Sprague that are stored there.

The gift cardPosted Monday, March 22, 2010, at 5:17 PM
Sometimes we do things that remind us of those who are no longer with us. These actions of ours will bring a smile to our faces and a sparkle to our eyes. In some ways I like to think that our loved ones are aware of us as our actions send them love and laughter across the great divide.
Such is the case with my father. Our family has gone through the usual stages of grief after his death in October. Of course we had to go through his things in the old Chester drawer he kept for decades. In one envelope we found scores of gift cards and realized that he had kept each one that the rest of the family had given to him for birthdays, Father's Day and Christmas. After we divided them I became the owner of a Denny's gift card. I've had more fun with this gift card than a person has a right to expect! Known to be a "frequent guest" at several local restaurants in Greencastle, I'll place that Denny's gift card with my check and wait. Those at my table will ask if I've made a mistake and then catch on to what I'm doing. Usually it takes a long time for the waitress or waiter to return to our table and apologetically explain that they don't take Denny's. We'll all laugh as the trickster energy has struck once again. I can only imagine what each waitress or waiter goes through when they've gone to their counter and discovered the gift card. Do they wonder if I might have grabbed the wrong card in error? Do they check the backside of the card to see if it has that MasterCard or Visa logo after all? Has their computer program frozen if any of them in haste quickly swiped the card into their system without realizing what type of a card it is? Do they question my sanity as to whether or not I'm coming down with early Alzheimer's? My father was a great practical joker. He loved camouflaging small gifts at Christmas time. He gave fictitious names in restaurant lines and enjoyed having his friends guess when their party's table was finally called. He once sent a sympathy card to my brother-in-law on his anniversary and "forgot" to place a stamp on the envelope, even forcing my brother-in-law to pay for the mailing of the card. Life was serious enough. My father was going to have some light-hearted fun. So every time I use his Denny's gift card I think of him. The value on the card is only $10; the value of my using the card this way is priceless. Indeed, there is a part of him that lives on because of the trickery this card has inspired in me. I hope that you have something like a Denny's gift card in your life. And I hope you'll understand if you are the waitress or waiter who finds it on top of my bill.

A Theory of Term Weighting Based on Exploratory Data Analysis (1998)

Years of Citing Articles
Techniques of exploratory data analysis are used to study the weight of evidence that the occurrence of a query term provides in support of the hypothesis that a document is relevant to an information need. In particular, the relationship between the document frequency and the weight of evidence is investigated. A correlation between document frequency normalized by collection size and the mutual information between relevance and term occurrence is uncovered. This correlation is found to be robust across a variety of query sets and document collections. Based on this relationship, a theoretical explanation of the efficacy of inverse document frequency for term weighting is developed which differs in both style and content from theories previously put forth. The theory predicts that a "flattening" of idf at both low and high frequency should result in improved retrieval performance. This altered idf formulation is tested on all TREC query sets. Retrieval results corroborate the predicti...

The South Bend semistate was Feb. 14, but no results were reported prior to the Tribune-Star's news deadline. State finals will be Feb. 21 at Anderson.
Boys advancing as individuals from the regional were Jacob Wright (South), Cameron Bolinger (South), while Scott Johansen was an alternate. For the girls, advancing was Amanda Perry (North).

The 40th Greater Terre Haute Bowlers Hall of Fame dinner has been set for 6:30 p.m. on April 27 at Excalibur, located at 212 W. National Avenue in West Terre Haute.
Returning for a return engagement, back by popular demand as it were, as featured speaker is Dick Jonckowski, self-proclaimed as the "Polish Eagle" according to HOF Board of Governors member John Hayes.
Jonckowski has been the public address voice of University of Minnesota basketball and baseball since 1986. He has also served as the banquet MC and game PA voice for the American Legion World Series since 1998.
According to Hayes, Jonckowski's entertaining comedic style of delivery was so good, many asked if he could return this year. And so he is back.
Hayes has known Jonckowski for the past 11 years during his tenure as manager of the Wayne Newton Post 346 American Legion baseball team.
Cost for the dinner is $20.
Also, applications for Hall of Fame selection must be submitted no later than March 16. Applications are available at all area bowling establishments. If someone has trouble obtaining an application, please contact Hayes or someone else on the HOF board.
The bowling community is mourning the loss of Marvin Bucy, who passed away on Wednesday.
I've known Marv since bowling with his son Rich as members of the Indiana State University men's bowling team way back in the 1975-76 school year.
Since then, I would run into Marv and his wife Norma — or see them from across the stands — at too numerous to count Indiana State men's and women's basketball games over the past, well I guess, thirtysomething years.
If they had a free night from ISU games, then I would see them taking in a basketball game at Rose-Hulman. I would also see them, all bundled up many times, at Terre Haute South baseball games.
Norma is a member of the Terre Haute Bowlers Hall of Fame class of 1982.
Marv will be missed.
On a happier note, Jay Scamihorn — who I've known since I worked at Imperial Lanes before I was on the ISU bowling team — has returned to bowling around the first of the year.
If you recall, Scamihorn had a tussle with a moving train in a car-train accident near Blackhawk back in August.
I ran into Jay in late 2008 at, where else, an ISU basketball game. He said then he was about ready to begin bowling again.
Sure enough, he's back, and hasn't missed a beat. He had high series the past week — see bowling league results — in the Monday and Wednesday senior leagues at the Bowling Center.
Welcome back Jay.

One of the hottest local bowlers in January was Chris Salyer.
On Jan. 6, Salyer bowled a 300 game (704 series) during the Monday Night Bush Mixed League at Vigo Bowl. Two weeks later on Jan. 19, he rolled another 300 game, this time with a three-game series of 820 (300-234-286).
That was his third career 300 game and first 800 series.
