Recent events at Evergreen College give pause to anyone with a passing interest in Israel
Events in the Middle East have a Northwest element to them. The Corrie family of Olympia, whose daughter Rachel died in Gaza in 2003, is focusing their understandable grief on the driver of the bulldozer under which Corrie died and the Israeli government, suing both for negligence. A ship renamed Rachel Corrie tried to run the Israeli blockade after the May 31 flotilla incident. The Israelis let it through only after inspecting the cargo, so both sides made their points. Perhaps some of the responsibility for her death lies close to home. Her fatal journey began at The Evergreen State College in Olympia, and we should ask what kind of "education" about the Arab-Israeli conflict Rachel received there. My experience with anti-Israel bias at Evergreen goes back to 1994. I was recommended as a speaker for Israel Independence Day. When the organizers discovered I held strong pro-Israel views, they told me I could speak only on the condition that I share the podium with a speaker from the far left. At the talk, I asked them, "When you invite pro-Arab speakers, do you require them to be matched with a supporter of Israel?" I don't recall hearing an answer. I spoke there again in 2007, one of seven Jewish panelists in a forum on the conflict at the Jewish Club. One lawyer said nothing, an Israeli with poor English tried to defend Israel, and four Jews vented their venom while I tried to hold the line. After the talk, students and faculty told me of hate e-mails and ostracism that confront anyone trying to present the Israeli side, asking that their names not be used. This year the five students who founded a pro-Israel group in 2008 all left. The rest are intimidated into silence. One of them left us a tape about his experiences. Walking into class, he would be taunted: "Have you drunk the blood of any Palestinian children today?" This is one example of the gutter level of anti-Semitism that underlies the "anti-Israel" campaign at Evergreen. Upon hearing about these problems I resolved to make fixing them a priority. My main partner now is Robert Wilkes, a conservative columnist who has written for the JTNews. I am also in contact with Israel supporters in the Olympia community. History has taught us that when Jews are afraid, all decent people need to be afraid, and it is time to take a close look at what we are paying for at this college, where a radical anti-Israel faculty has turned a state-funded institution into their own private playground, allowing no opinion other than theirs to be heard. Once a department head is selected, he chooses, with no interference from the staff, all the other professors in his program. If these professors were confident in what they were teaching, they would welcome debate. I tested this when a faculty member of Evergreen's Middle East Department, Prof. Steve Niva, spoke at the University of Washington in November of 2008. Given one minute for a question, I asked him if he could cite a single speech by an Arab leader to an Arab audience in which he tells them that they must give up their dream of controlling all the land west of Jordan, now and forever. I still can't believe his answer: "Intent doesn't matter!" He then mumbled a few words about keeping commitments, which the Arabs have never done, looked at his watch, told us he was tired and rapidly exited the hall. When some community members submitted a paid ad to the Cooper Point Journal, Evergreen's student newspaper, listing a few of Israel's undisputed accomplishments in honor of Independence Day, they refused to publish it unless it was undersigned by a student or student group. When I met with the leaders at the campus Hillel, none would stand up for Israel and they requested we don't bring pro-Israel programming to the campus. On June 2, 2010, the Journal published a vicious article condemning the flotilla operation, expressing deep sympathy for Hamas, whose charter demands not only the total destruction of Israel but encourages Muslims to murder virtually every Jew on the planet. The student author informs her readers she is Jewish! I was sick when I read it and began composing a rebuttal, but stopped myself. It will never be published. No student or faculty member will sign it, and those of us on the outside, whose taxes support the college, can't buy space to refute her charges. The pro-Israel voice has been completely silenced at Evergreen. The student body has now voted overwhelmingly to divest funds from Caterpillar and companies doing business with Israel. I have just e-mailed the sponsors asking what discussion took place before the vote, and am waiting for their response In 2007 the play My Name is Rachel Corrie was performed in Seattle. Rachel, quoted from her diaries tells us; "Dr. Samir (her host) told me that they didn't have the tanks and the soldiers until the Intifada." She followed this with a statement that forced me into a new respect for her: "I need to think about that." Despite the violence and anger surrounding her, Rachel was still in student mode, and was beginning to see the disconnect between the story she had been fed at Evergreen and the facts on the ground. Had she attended a college where the Israeli side of the story was free to be heard, is it possible she would have developed a more mature view of this complex conflict and still be alive today? Tragically, Rachel did not have the time "to think about that," but we do. We need to find a way to restore to Evergreen the intellectual openness that should exist in any American college. Rachel was the first, and so far the only American student killed supporting the Arab war against Israel. Let's direct our efforts to making sure she will be the last.

Drip words against my chest
let eyes glaze with feverish passion
feast upon my manhood
paint my body with cool of breasts
aching nipples suffering to be sucked
I smell your wanton zeal flowing freely
hear the drumming of desire between silk thighs
taste your soulful needy kiss
moans tear at my restraint
nails stripe red on tanned back
let us wrestle with needy desire
buck against the blushing bed
lose all sense of I
blending into the nirvana of Us
clinging to the coziness of bliss

An investigator who looked into alleged ethics violations in the Nancy Sebring episode concluded that top Omaha Public Schools officials did not know how graphic Sebring's sexually explicit emails were until newspapers published them.
It was therefore reasonable, he wrote, for two OPS officials to keep what they knew secret from the school board.
School board President Freddie Gray and district lawyer Elizabeth Eynon-Kokrda "were not fully aware of the graphic content and potentially damaging impact of Sebring's personal emails until they were published June 1, 2012," according to Dennis Carlson, counsel for discipline for the Nebraska Supreme Court.
Carlson's opinion was made public by the district Monday after The World-Herald filed a public records request asking for it.
The investigator looked at the narrow issue of whether Eynon-Kokrda violated the Nebraska Rules of Professional Conduct that govern the actions of all the state's attorneys.
Attorneys are presumed innocent, and violations must be proved by clear and convincing evidence.
Carlson, responding to a complaint filed by Learning Community Council member Ernie Chambers, concluded that once Gray and Eynon-Kokrda became more aware of the extent and nature of the emails, they brought them before the whole board.
In hindsight, Carlson wrote, one could argue that the whole board should have been informed about the racy emails Sebring sent on a school computer while she was superintendent of the Des Moines Public Schools.
Sebring resigned her Des Moines job immediately after the emails were discovered. At the time, she was under contract to become OPS's next superintendent.
Carlson concluded, however, that the "paper trail" of communications revealed that Eynon-Kokrda "was not fully apprised of and did not anticipate the explicit nature of the emails" until The World-Herald and Des Moines Register published them.
Before the emails went public, Sebring had disclosed to Gray and Eynon-Kokrda that the emails prompted her resignation from Des Moines on May 9, seven weeks before her contract was to expire. Over the next three weeks, Sebring regularly updated Eynon-Kokrda and Gray — by email, by phone and in meetings — of her efforts to prevent publication of the emails.
Gray and Eynon-Kokrda also planned with Sebring how they would respond if the emails became public. Board members found out the real reasons for Sebring's resignation only when the emails became public on June 1 in newspaper reports. Sebring resigned from the OPS job the next day.
Carlson, in his opinion, wrote that under the circumstances Eynon-Kokrda's response to the emails was "reasonable and consistent with what she believed to be the best interests of OPS."
"An error in judgment or an honest mistake by an attorney generally is not cause, in itself, for the imposition of a disciplinary sanction," he wrote.
Carlson also decided that Eynon-Kokrda "fully complied" with her ethical duty to inform her client — in this case, the school board — by communicating what she knew about the emails with Gray.
"As the primary contact person for the Board of Education, Mrs. Gray received complete and regular status reports from Attorney Eynon-Kokrda," he wrote.
Under the rules for Nebraska lawyers, Carlson wrote, there are certain situations when a lawyer for an organization has an ethical duty to go to "a higher authority," such as when an employee or person associated with the organization acts against a legal obligation of the organization or in violation of the law.
But even in those cases, Carlson noted, the rules give lawyers broad flexibility to "proceed as is reasonably necessary in the best interest of the organization." A lawyer doesn't have to contact the higher authority — the school board — unless the lawyer believes it is in the best interest of the organization to do so.
Chambers had accused Eynon-Kokrda of "gross negligence" in her handling of the Sebring situation. Chambers said this week that he intends to appeal the decision.
His 27-page grievance criticized Eynon-Kokrda for not informing the entire 12-member board about the sexually explicit emails.
He accused Eynon-Kokrda of violating the oath she took as a lawyer and the code of conduct for lawyers by scripting how Sebring and Gray would respond should news organizations discover the explicit emails.
He said the lawyer's primary duty was to the school board, not to Sebring, who he said was represented by another lawyer and whose interests conflicted with those of the district.
Chambers questioned the explanation given by Gray and Eynon-Kokrda that Sebring misled them about the nature of the emails — something Sebring denies. He noted that Sebring had told the two officials that the emails were "problematic."
He said Gray and Eynon-Kokrda knew Sebring had contemplated an injunction against the Des Moines Register to prevent the emails' release, compared them to the content in Cosmopolitan magazine and suggested that the emails contained "intimate details of my personal life, including my sexual preferences or habits."
Carlson dismissed the notion that Eynon-Kokrda had a conflict of interest in simultaneously representing OPS and advising its superintendent-to-be.
Carlson cited Eynon-Kokrda's response to the grievance, in which she maintained that OPS and Sebring, throughout the course of events, had the same interests.
They both wanted to protect OPS "by working toward a successful transition of superintendent responsibilities while avoiding unnecessary negative publicity that might undermine Dr. Sebring's ability to discharge her duties as Superintendent-Elect and the Board's ability to exercise its duties with impartiality," the response said.
Asked for comment on Carlson's opinion, board member Marian Fey said, "As always, the focus should continue to be on what is best for students, but it is good to have another item of distracting nonsense out of the way."
Board member Justin Wayne, an attorney for Union Pacific, said he is glad Eynon-Kokrda was cleared of ethical violations, "although as an attorney, I would have taken a different approach" on the Sebring situation.
Fey and Wayne were appointed in August to a board committee given the task of reviewing board policy on how members get and share information with their attorney. The committee is also looking at best practices and what policies are in place elsewhere.
Fey requested formation of the committee, which Gray appointed. It is expected to come up with recommendations, possibly by December.
Wayne said the committee has met but has "not made any progress about what we're going to do about legal services, which was promised to the public."
Fey said the committee has been meeting and will look at how legal counsel is used by the board, what's efficient, how counsel communicates with the board, and if an in-house attorney would be useful in some cases.
Gray and Eynon-Kokrda didn't return calls seeking comment.

text: Richard, This is a fairly good list of options. It will take a little while to fully digest and respond, but I would like to make one comment now. The "Survival of the Fittest" is not really the status quo. Survival of the Fittest implies that any group may hold an event whenever it is desired without regard to other events (perhaps allowing exclusion of special Kingdom events). If 10 groups decided to use the same date, they could all get it and the ones best able to attract participants would get the most attendance and money. Currently, the Kingdom does not allow a group to schedule an event within a given distance (say 150 miles) of another event. Further, the Central region may not schedule a major event in contention with any other region because their central local gives them an advantage and the other region's event generally suffers. In fact, if you only look at the 150 mile limitation, we do not really have much of an event proliferation problem. It is only when looking at the overall Kingdom calendar that we see several events on a single weekend. The same is true if you substitute "within the same region" for the 150 mile limit. Instead of a free market, this is like a planned economy with a 2-year plan. As Baron Daniel has stated, however, we do not want our friends to suffer because we use our advantage against them. A healthy Kingdom requires some adjustment between its parts to stay healthy. I am not espousing any particular option yet. I'm still evaluating what you and others have said. But I wanted to clarify what is the status quo. In service, Caelin on Andrede > 1.Survival of the Fittest > This is the current status quo. No change in the number of calendar event > for any group.

Good, well reasoned review. However, it sounds like the reviewer just isn't a fan of this type of game or maybe even the original which Nintendo Life reviewed as a 9/10. If this is fundamentally quite similar to the original with on-line then I am optimistic for it to be honest. The review itself reads like a 7 looking at the scoring policy of this site as well.
Just completed my 2014th day on wii fit plus
It neatly fits in a wideish draw in my television furniture unit
Wii Fit U full DL is "free" with wii fit u meter which is around £20. . No brainer! On my 2012th day on wii fit plus baby
That is what gaming is all about
FUN. Awesome vids
My own young family loved the wii game and am sure theyll love this
Of all the gamea in q4 this is most likely of the highest quality and highest calibre. We gots Y
The same problems here are in Marvel Pinball 3ds but not in Zen pinball for some reason. Try playing zen pinball then marvel pinball straight afterward and you'll know what I mean. Seems star wars pinball has the same port issues. The wii u and iOS versions are aces.
Went ahead and bought a 2 tb hardrive which works ok. However, the intial deluxe model should have been 500gb, especially at the entry price back then. Also, especially since Ninty seemed to bang on about big plans for the DL scence, including retail downloads. Still, Wii U is aces.
That's interesting as I had an altercation with him on twitter over him re-tweeting an indie dev who was belitting the Nintendo indie gamers and brown-nosing Sony indie gamers to the extreme. (This same dev then started to talk about how his game was metroidvania influenced.) This was over a year ago mind. Still have a tremendous respect for him in the industry (even though we have blocked eachother ha ha )
I did like this SNES game quite a bit but never downloaded it on the Wii VC as I waited in vain for Piltowings 64.
The third party mini game comps, besides a few exceptions, has been dire. However, first party mini game comps have been brilliant. If you've purchased or played the poor, third party mini-game comps then that's your own, poor purchase decision. They can be great, especially with firend and family. Wii Party was outstanding, and one of the top 25-30 games on the excellent wii system of the close to 90 I played (which on the whole all good or brill). Wii Party U is one of my most anticipated games along with Mario party 3ds
Around 30% or more of my DS games (using that as an example) was from NA. I have played a colossal number of DS games in my time too. Most of the time from games that never made it over here and some times from games that we ended receiving very much later on. I support the consumers right to import tbh. Great article though. Well done.
To be fair, NFS MWU and FIFA 13 (though not as good as psbox features wise) were excellent. However, its wierd they're happily supporting Vita, which has bummed for a long time and not the Wii U in its early months/first year. I know they've prob got an agreement with Sony that they must support Vita AS WELL AS the PS3 & 4...but STILL
It's an ok concept. Some usage of DLC by pubs are a rip off and insulting - however, it can add value to the game when it doesn't compromise the core.
Wasn't going to get this but ARGH! What were they doing? Too comfortable with existing hardwear set ups.
ACTUALLY, EA DID make a fair amount of money with a fair few Wii games (especially FIFA) but not to the levels of PSBOX consoles. However, that statement seems to indicate they're waiting till the Wii U sells in bigger numbers reading between the lines). At least they consider Wii U same gen as PS4 and Xbox One unlike the makers of the Unity engine.
For me personally, no FIFA 14 on the WII U is a big blow and very annoying.
Think Tales of the Abyss and DoA Dimensions should've been in there, but what there is still good
All excellent. Solid list. Have to agree, RHYTHM THIEF is my favourite too, closely followed by SSFIV 3D
I'd be a tad surprised if Castle of Illusion doesn't come to Wii U considering SEGA have got into bed with Ninty with the exclusives. Then again, SEGA could just say that they've given Ninty its exclusives anyway. Will Company of Heroes and Total War: Rome come to the Wii U?
Tetris 3D is the same as the highly decent Tetris Axis game in NA, isn't it? Was quite a decently rated and quality package overall in retail? Will DL that definately. I was a bit of a fan of Jewel Quest 2 on "The Quest Trio" cart during the DS era so I'll probably DL JQ 4 Heritage which is one of the very best bejeweled-esque games out there.
I don't think NL reviewed the Wii version so its good to read the revw for the Wii U game. I still think its a great accompanyment to Lego City Undy and a legolised. World like Batman's Gotham deserves HD and works btter in that world too for me. I'm glad I re-bought it for the Wii U after playing the Wii one
The majority votes appear to be the common sense answers at the moment. The 32gb storage cap is poor if u want eShop to succeed. The whole colours thing is just silly, black or white is fine. Wii u game pad battery needs to be better if u want the mh3u gamers to have fulfilment in that game and other similar games. The current Nintendo ups are brilliant, wouldn't mind another, but more sensibly behaved 3rd party would help a variety in the library
Unlike the idiotically delayed Legends, there is nothing there that interests me. Including Sth Park.
I love Level 5's work. Think it'd be a mistake of theirs not to consider Ni No Kuni for 3DS since the 3DS is mega strong ATM. Maybe for 2014 to avoid 2013's competitive and stellar line-up!
Decent DL week. May DL both Kirby games as I DL'd Kirby's Adventure on Wii U eShop. I have both on Wii VC though. Swords and Soldiers and may DL Ghost Recon. Used to have it and sold it before completion, may look it up again financing allow (btw, I bet this will be available for under 10 dollars in US eShop soon _ our pricing takes the p). DEMO
Its sort of Hotel Duskish, but with that 90s sci-fi PC game-ism about it. Very much a "What now? Oh yeah!" Game. Heh heh
Wow, that's interesting. Think I'd be up for that. I need Unlimited first as I'm in the EU (when is that being released ffs?!). Don't frak up the EU version of Unmasked this time please!
Already have TTT2 but that's a great price. Starship Damrey, Resi demo and Super Metroid for me.
I wouldn't listen too mich to this vile tabloid EITHER way though. Look what they've said in past against video game culture. They've got a very bad rep and r only popular cos they're cheap!
The earlier installments in the series were fairly straight forward so this difficulty is diverting away from the series in a sense. That's ok by me.
Wii U VC is the 3rd platform I have this game on. Brilliant game. Also have Picross DS, 3D Picross and the Picross e series on 3DS eShop. Can't enough of the Picross genre.
I'm a iOS gamer and trust me, many a top iOS game could do with being on the Wii U and its Gamepad
Excellent week. Fair few I want to DL there, Mario and DK tops it (major fan of series), followed by Starship Damrey. Solomon's Key, Crash City Mayhem will prob be DL'd too

Carl Gulbrandsen
Managing Director SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF CARL E. GULBRANDSEN
In 1980, under the leadership of this Committee, Congress enacted the Patent and Trademark Law Amendments Act (commonly known as the Bayh-Dole Act), incorporating into law the cardinal principle that the public benefits from a policy that permits universities and small businesses to elect ownership of technology invented with federal funding and to become participants in the commercialization process. Today the list of inventions by individuals employed by U.S. universities is impressive. As patent owners, universities depend on a high quality patent system that promotes certainty and confidence, and permits the enforcement of exclusive rights. If that system is strong and robust, technology transfer occurs and the public benefits. If the system is weakened, the public benefits are reduced. The current debate about patent reform is subdivided into two categories: patent quality improvements and litigation reform. In regard to quality issues, the first line of defense against poor quality patents and slow decision-making is to provide the USPTO the fiscal resources that it needs to hire and train skilled examiners and implement effective electronic processing capabilities. Further steps remain. Diversion should be permanently barred. The USPTO should continue to implement its "Strategic Plan," which it can do in significant part through regulatory and administrative means. Several elements of the Strategic Plan require legislation: for example, expanding the early publication of patents at 18 months and assignee filing. WARF also supports the creation of a limited post-grant opposition procedure, with reasonable time limitations and no second window, full disclosure of the real party in interest, a broader range of the estoppel effect of the opposition, and support for the USPTO to implement without compromising its ability to examine and issue high-quality patents. WARF additionally opposes dramatic changes to continuation practice. In regard to litigation reform, including modification of the current law relating to injunctions and damages, the Subcommittee should pay careful heed not to retard the success of university technology transfer and the creation of vibrant new university spin-out companies. WARF therefore opposes injunctive relief reform and the expansion of prior user rights. Finally for the benefit of universities and independent inventors, and to preserve our country's technological lead, WARF would prefer that the first-inventor-to-invent system be maintained. Nonetheless, WARF recognizes that some benefits may be gained by harmonizing the U.S. patent system with the European and Japanese patent systems. However, certain statutory safeguards should be included. Mr. Chairman, thank you for the opportunity to testify before your Subcommittee on the topic of "patent law reform: injunctions and damages." Thank you also for an important piece of legislation (the CREATE Act) processed into law last Congress under your leadership and that of Senator Leahy and several Committee cosponsors, including Senators Kohl, Feingold, Grassley and Schumer. Science today depends on collaborative research, and the CREATE Act will stimulate numerous inventive activities in the future. I. Background about WARF ? Solution for the preservation of organs for transplant: University of Wisconsin - Madison; ? Lithography system to enable the manufacturing of nano devices: University of Texas - Austin; ? Rheumatoid arthritis relief: University of California - San Diego; ? Effective Aneurysm Treatment: UCLA; ? Water-repellent cotton fabric using nanotechnology: University of Oklahoma; ? Genetic-modified soy beans resistant to aphids: University of Illinois; and ? Synthetic penicillin: Massachusetts Institute of Technology ("MIT"). For a listing of more university innovations, see AUTM Licensing Survey: FY 2003. In the past two decades, intellectual property assets have become vital to the performance of the U.S. economy. Continuing high rates of innovation and inventiveness are reflected in the patent law system, wherein patent grants are actively sought administratively, exploited commercially in the marketplace, and vigorously enforced in the federal courts. Since 1992, the number of applications in the USPTO has more than doubled to 400,000 applications annually (in fiscal year 2004) and, in 2005, the USPTO issued more patents than it did during the first four decades of American history. High quality patents serve as a measure of success. However, in recent years the patent office has been challenged financially and administratively resulting in an increase in pendency of applications and an occasional lapse in the quality of examination. These stresses on the patent office for the user translate into delays in negotiating and obtaining licenses to the pending applications and increases litigation costs when poor quality patents issue. ? If the legislation is to move forward, please focus on measures that promote patent quality and not on proposals to weaken the patent law. ? Continue to protect university ownership of patents and technology transfer from erosion by amendments (either direct or indirect) that compromise its demonstrated successes. The June 13, 2005, issue of Business Week features a cover story entitled "Biotech, Finally," detailing that biotechnology has finally come of age. The biotech revolution is actually an evolution that started on university campuses. According to the article, "it evinces the slow accumulation of decades of research" by academic researchers who pushed biotech forward. The endless cycle of academic research, technology transfer, collaborative research, and commercialization of cures by the private sector continue today into a golden age of drug discovery. Now is not the time for radical surgery to the patent law. |

Sitting below a framed environmental portrait of his father, Peter Leonard sits behind the desk he inherited from Elmore. / John Stormzand | Staff Photographer
Peter Leonard writes all his first draft material on legal pads. His dad did the same, only his pads were unlined. / John Stormzand | Staff Photographer
Theres always going to be a little Elmore in Peter Leonard.
Elmore Leonard was a world-famous crime novelist. His son, Peter, is carving out his own literary path, having published five novels in the past six years.
Peter Leonards latest book, Eyes Closed Tight, comes out in March. The story starts out in Pompano Beach before it shifts to Detroit and Birmingham. His dad owned property in Pompano Beach and set many of his stories in Florida.
Father and son share an ear for dialogue and a writing style thats sparse but spot-on with details. Their lead characters are competent, but make mistakes.
And there, the chain breaks. Elmore Leonard passed away last August at the age of 87. With his passing, Peter Leonard lost a dad and a friend.
It seems a little odd that were not out on the road, Leonard said, as the two often traveled together on book tours in recent years. But he was getting tired; he was slowing down. We went to the University of South Carolina and after that trip he said to me, You know, I think Im done. It was just too much work.
Now, his son works at the same desk where his dad wrote Rum Punch, Get Shorty, Out of Sight and dozens of other famous novels. Leonard lives in Birmingham, not too far from Quarton Lake. A large photo of his dad looms over the desk that was taken by Annie Leibovitz. A photo of Hemingway rests on the fireplace mantle in the den.
The home almost wants to announce: writer lives here. Leonard, of course, has a more humble view of the situation.
When you write as I do, no one thinks you really have a job, he said. My wife doesnt, so Im fair game if somebody needs to be picked up at the airport or they need help moving something.
Meet O'Clair
His main character in Eyes Closed Tight is a retired Detroit homicide investigator by the name of OClair. He runs a motel in Pompano Beach with his girlfriend, Virginia, and life is good until a serial killer shows up.
Then things go terribly bad.
Hes the older guy who doubts himself, Leonard said of OClair. He doubts that hes good enough to have this good-looking girl whos much younger than him. He feels its beyond him.
The name, it turns out, was inspired from one of Leonards classmates at Brother Rice High School.
The real OClair is a big guy, Leonard said. He played football and I knew him pretty well in high school. I liked his name and using it grounds the character in reality.
One scene takes place in the old Forte restaurant Leonard was once a partner in an ad agency located in the same building.
Several scenes are set at a townhouse on Merrill Street.
The story itself is rather dark a contrast to his dads breezier plots.
The style of the book is a mystery, he said. My father never wrote a mystery he didnt care for mysteries. I look at Eyes Closed Tight as old-fashioned crime fiction thats been updated.
Part of his research came from spending several weeks shadowing the Detroit homicide unit. He went out on the afternoon shifts and more than once found himself observing a murder investigation.
The first scene I went to, there wasnt a body, he said. It was a drive-by shooting the person who was shot was taken to a local hospital.
What I saw was the car the guy was riding in, the bullet holes in the windshield and blood all over the interior. I walked around to the drivers side of the car and saw four bullet holes in the drivers door. There was a down vest where the driver had been and in the vest pocket was a stack of hundred dollar bills. It was eerie to see it.
And then a little Elmore comes out in him:
One observation: the black guys were way better dressed than the white guys, he said about the detectives. I was struck by how stylish they were. It was in the dead of winter when I went out with them and these guys were wearing cashmere coats with their Borsalino hats. They looked good.
Life after Elmore
Theres another photo in the study, a black and white snapshot of Elmores dad. Peter Leonard never met him.
He died before I was born, Leonard said. He was a dude well dressed, well groomed. He owned a Chevy dealership in Las Cruces, New Mexico, and wanted Elmore to take over the business. But Elmore wouldnt have any of it. He wanted to be a writer.
The family grew up in Lathrup Village.
Before Elmore was truly famous, he was the somewhat eccentric dad who drove a Fiat and grilled an onion-topped burger for the neighborhood kids that he proudly dubbed the Elmore Burger.
He was the odd guy all my friends had fathers who worked for the auto companies in some way, Leonard said. But its interesting that my dad always knew what he wanted to do. If you want to be a writer, how do you make a living? Eventually, maybe you do. But you never know.
Leonard said his dad was still around when he was writing Eyes Closed Tight.
Elmore was going through a lengthy divorce and he would have dinner at my house maybe four times a week, Leonard said. He was working on a novel called Blue Dreams, his 46th, and he would talk about the scenes he wrote that day. He would light a Virginia Slims 100, Id pour him a glass of wine and we were off.

I had the flu shot last year and it didn't prevent me from getting the flu. I just go over what everyone's going through right now about 1 month ago. So since it doesn't work and i already had the flu no use in me getting another flu shot

There are thus far 6,000 cases documented of miscarriages within a 6 month period over these 2 years. All had the flu shot within 4 weeks of fetal death. Flu Shot Given To Pregnant Women Causes Fetal Death Rate To Rise By 4,250%! | Vactruth.com Have you any other information against this? Just because the CDC says "I told you so" means nothing. Read the articles and certainly I hope you do not share the same experience we have. To suggest you understand the situation and the cause when its apparent that you do not is quite offensive. |

Link #2 VAERS is a self-reporting database (from the submission form: "Please report all significant adverse events that occur after vaccination of adults and children, even if you are not sure whether the vaccine caused the adverse event.") Either way, of course be careful with what you decide to put into your body but I just wanted to point out you can find 100 links for and against the flu shot. Both include misinformation, unfortunately, never know what is true and what is false these days. Here is a study, I haven't checked the credentials of BMJ but do know it is a open-access peer-reviewed medical journal.

I got one, but haven't had one for years. Worked good for me this year, everyone at work got the flu but me. You can still get the flu even if you get the flu shot, but it usually isn't as bad. I think alot of people think a simple cold virus is the flu, it is not. If you get H1N1 or a serious strain of the flu, you will wish you were dead, and you'll be missing more than a couple of days at work. Also, YOU CANNOT GET THE FLU FROM THE FLU SHOT, it is dead virus.

Worked at a clinic as an xray tech for 4 yrs. I would never get the flu shot, to many ppl said they got the flu shot and then got sick. Only time my wife ever had the flu was when she got her flu shot. Go figure

Its unfortunate that many hospital workers are now forced to receive their flu shot or they are fired. Are hospital workers not allowed to choose what is injected into their body? There are now many lawsuits being started by medical workers against employers for this very reason. While Im not one for hopping onto a lawsuit I certainly can see why people are frustrated. |

MIT scientists two months ago studied CDCs own data and found 4200% more miscarriages after the H1N1 flu shot (42x) than ever reported(CDC cover up). This is consistent with another study that indicated an additional 2000 or so miscarriages above what would be expected were experienced with the same flu shot. Flu shots are not nearly as effective as the 60% we are being led to believe. See Pregancy, Flu Shots and Autism at Journal of Natural Food and Health | Raw Milk, Fluoride, Vaccines and More . . . |

Now, I don't know much about scientific studies, but the way they have worded that one sentence sets off alarms in my head because that is a whole lot of work crammed into a single sentence. What is it saying? That the combination of putting a MMR vaccine, vaccines that have neurotoxin aluminum additives, and Tylenon into your body is going to mess up brain function of a fetus at higher rate compared to not taking all that? Yeah, I would believe that but I doubt that is the full story, for example how does the timing of shots - first trimester vs. third trimester, previous family history, previous health history, dose level, play into it all? I'd like to look at the study myself. (I have not gotten the flu shot, never have, and probably won't in the future)

The problem with many people claiming to get sick from their flu shots is that they're idiots. All the people that are getting their flu shots now or during the peak flu season are getting exposed before your body has the time (4 weeks) to build the appropriate antibodies. They in turn get sick because they were exposed before the shot works. You don't become magically immune to the flu the second you recieve the shot...
Those saying the shot only protects against 1 strain are also wrong. There are 3 strains it protects against: A, B and H1N1. But hey, keep spreading misinformation and anecdotes about mercury and ineffectiveness. When you're at home missing work or school I'll be feeling fine and dandy!

least 20 years. I've never gotten the flu during that time. I'm also exposed to the flu as much as any person. People come to see me when they are ill and I've written for 100s of prescriptions for tamiflu. (I'm a physician). Frankly, it would be in my financial best interest to not recommend the flu shot. When any of my patients ask if they should get it, I tell them they should, especially this year. |

Mark Craig has covered the NFL for 23 years, and the Vikings since 2003 for the Star Tribune. He is one of 44 Pro Football Hall of Fame selectors. Follow him at @markcraignfl.
Master Tesfatsion is the Star Tribune's digital Vikings writer. He is a 2013 graduate of Arizona State and worked for mlb.com before arriving in Minneapolis. Follow him at @masterstrib.
It's been 16 days now since free agency opened across the NFL. Here's your comprehensive report on how the Vikings have operated in the market over the past two-and-a-half weeks.
It's not the splash that Vikings fans were hoping for, but Day 2 of free agency will bring possibly the best young tight end available to Winter Park for a visit. The news was first reported by TheSidelineView.com.
John Carlson, a Litchfield, Mn. native who has played his four NFL seasons in Seattle, would make an intriguing tight end combination if he chooses to return to his home state. A second-round pick of the Seahawks in 2008, Carlson, 27, would team with fellow Notre Dame alum Kyle Rudolph, a second-round pick of the Vikings in 2011.
As Vikings fans know, the Vikings love multiple tight-end sets. Carlson would replace Visanthe Shiancoe, who turns 32 in June. Shiancoe is a free agent and won't return because he's on the wrong side of the over-30 purge taking place at Winter Park.
Carlson, like Rudolph, is considered a pass-catching tight end. Carlson had 55 catches and five touchdowns as a rookie in 2008. He had 55 catches and seven TDs a year later. He then had 31 catches and one touchdown in 2010 before a shoulder injury caused him to miss the 2011 season.
In other free agent news, former Vikings right guard Anthony Herrera will visit the Bears. This is a no-brainer visit. Bears offensive coordinator Mike Tice basically discovered Herrera in 2004. Tice was the Vikings' head coach when Herrera was signed as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee.
Herrera's NFL success has been fueled ever since by the snub he felt on that draft day eight years ago. Although Herrera doesn't mesh with the youth movement at Winter Park, he could definitely help a Bears line that has struggled, to say the least.
Looking for a quick guide to NFL free agency, which opens this afternoon at 3 p.m.? We've got you covered. Already, our analysis at the Star Tribune has brought you the following.
Finally, just to prime the pump even more, we're happy to direct you to the list of the top free agents at each position delivered by NFL.com senior writer Steve Wyche. And then there's this "Hot 100" list provided by Evan Silva of ProFootballTalk.com.
Yep. It's time. Let the free agency frenzy begin.
Rick Spielman? As Michael Corleone? Take a look and we'll explain.
The Vikings have signed offensive lineman Pat Brown to a one-year contract extension. Brown was set to become an exclusive rights free agent next month. But that designation basically means that, due to Brown's two-year tenure in the NFL, the Vikings would have been the only team in the league able to sign him for 2012. Which they have now done.
Brown saw limited action last season, playing mostly on special teams. He was originally undrafted out of Central Florida in 2009.
The Vikings now have 17 players due to become free agents when the market opens on the afternoon of March 13. The most notable players on that list are linebackers E.J. Henderson and Erin Henderson, tight end Visanthe Shiancoe, safeties Husain Abdullah and Tyrell Johnson and receiver Devin Aromashodu.
Running back Lorenzo Booker and linebacker Kenny Onatulu are both set to become restricted free agents, which will give the Vikings an opportunity to match offers that come from other teams.

Endometrial Cancer (cont.) Medical Author:
William T Creasman, MD
Medical Editor:
Jerry R. Balentine, DO, FACEP
Jerry R. Balentine, DO, FACEPDr. Balentine received his undergraduate degree from McDaniel College in Westminster, Maryland. He attended medical school at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine graduating in1983. He completed his internship at St. Joseph's Hospital in Philadelphia and his Emergency Medicine residency at Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center in the Bronx, where he served as chief resident. IN THIS ARTICLE
Support Groups and CounselingLiving with cancer presents many new challenges, both for the woman diagnosed with cancer and for her family and friends. A woman will probably have many worries about how endometrial cancer will affect her and her ability to live a normal life (for example, to care for her family and home, to hold her job, to continue the friendships and activities she enjoys, and to sustain a loving relationship with her spouse or sexual partner). Many people feel anxious and depressed. Some people feel angry and resentful, others feel helpless and defeated. For most people with cancer, talking about their feelings and concerns helps. A woman's friends and family members can be very supportive, although they may be hesitant to offer support until they see how she is coping. If a woman wants to talk about her concerns, she should feel free to bring them up to her friends and family members. Some people do not want to burden their loved ones, or they prefer talking about their concerns with a more neutral professional. A social worker, counselor, or member of the clergy can be helpful if a woman wants to discuss her feelings and concerns about having endometrial cancer. A woman's gynecologist or oncologist should also be able to provide a recommendation. Many people with cancer are helped profoundly by talking to other people who have cancer. Sharing the concerns with others who have been through the same thing can be remarkably reassuring. Support groups for people with cancer (and for their loved ones) may be available through the medical center where treatment is received. The American Cancer Society also has information about local support groups. Next Page: Must Read Articles Related to Endometrial Cancer

Jeff's Thoughts on Texas State
Why Texas State
I have attended Texas State as both an undergraduate and graduate student. I was attracted to the university because of its central location within Texas, proximity to Austin and San Antonio and the small town feel of San Marcos.
Why Communication Disorders?
I chose to study speech-language pathology through the
communication disorders
major because of the diversity of clients and disorders I will work with, the variety of different potential work environments, job security and overall flexibility of the field.
Career Goals
My long-term goal is to obtain a doctorate in speech-language pathology. My short-term goals are to find a challenging and rewarding job and to determine areas of specialty, such as the assessment and treatment of voice disorders.
How my Major Will Help me Reach my Goals
The communication disorders program at Texas State has provided me with opportunities to excel in both the clinical and research aspects of speech-language pathology.
Typical Class Day
I am currently a second-year graduate student. I spend the majority of my time at my off-campus clinical practicum, which is at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio. I spend the remainder of my time on campus working on my master's thesis.
Best Studying Advice
Find a method that works best for you, even if it seems unconventional. We are all different, and we all go about learning in our own ways. I'm not a fan of memorization; I'd rather make a B in a class and know how to apply the course material well than make an A simply because I memorized some information.
My Clubs and Organizations
National Student Speech- Language-Hearing-Association
Texas Speech-Language-Hearing-Association
Texas Speech Language Hearing Association
I am conducting research for my master's thesis that addresses assessment procedures used in the state of Texas to diagnose pervasive developmental disorders, which include Asperger's syndrome and autism.
What I Like Most About Texas State
I like the relationships you can establish with professors. I like that professors are easily accessible, and you can speak with them directly. That accessibility is not as common at larger universities.

Why the FDIC Won't Let Us Down
By Suze Orman
Oprah.com | From the February 2009 issue of
O, The Oprah Magazine
You speak highly of FDIC-insured bank accounts, but I've read that the FDIC is very underfunded. At this stage, when the government is bailing out every nitwit in the money line, I worry that its ability to cover FDIC-insured deposits will be gone. When I graduated from college and got my first credit card, my grandfather—who in 1929 pulled his money out of the bank the day before it failed—told me that the card shouldn't come out of my left pocket unless I had the cash to pay the bill in my right pocket. I followed his advice, and now I'm frustrated that my finances will be sucked down the drain by people who thought they deserved a 5,000-square-foot house, a Cadillac Escalade, and a 52-inch flat-screen TV. If my bank goes under, how can I trust that the government will have enough money left to reimburse my losses?
Given what is going on in our financial markets, and the enormity of the federal bailout programs, I absolutely understand your concern. I am not one to offer guarantees lightly, especially now, with our economy and the global credit markets in such a mess. But here is one Suze Orman guarantee you can take to the bank: If your money is in an FDIC-insured bank or a credit union backed by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and you do not exceed the deposit limits for full insurance, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about. (To confirm whether your bank or credit union is insured, check your latest statement or go online and look for the FDIC or NCUA insurance logos. I also encourage bank customers to go to MyFDICInsurance.gov and credit union members to NCUA.gov; use the online tools to find out whether your accounts are fully insured.)
In the event your bank or credit union falls into trouble, you will receive every penny you have on deposit (as long as it's within the limit; read on for more about that). Don't worry about how well, or how poorly, the FDIC and NCUA are funded. All you need to focus on is the fact that the promise of FDIC and NCUA insurance is a pillar of our financial system; it is backed by the full faith and credit of our government. In the event either insurance fund runs dry, Congress will ensure that the United States Treasury has additional funds to make good on its insurance pledge. To renege on that promise would set off a global panic like nothing we have seen. That is not going to happen.
That said, I want to make sure you understand the limits of FDIC and NCUA insurance. For 2009, the limit has been raised from $100,000 to $250,000, so if the combined value of all your deposits in one bank is below $250,000, you have nothing to worry about. Still, don't forget that the $250,000 limit is valid only until the end of 2009. It may be extended, but until we know for sure, it's smartest to keep no more than $100,000 in your name at any one bank. That way you'll know your money is safe, not just for 2009 but for years to come.

Video Sweepstakes Ban
Updated: Monday, January 7 2013, 04:14 PM EST
The ban of online video sweepstakes games is now in effect. And local law enforcement is making sure owners of the games comply.
The NC Supreme Court upheld the ban on the games last month. And several counties have already started enforcing it.
Today, the Buncombe County Sheriff, District Attorney, and Asheville Police Chief are holding a joint news conference explaining how they will enforce the ban.
They say the message is straight forward. They will be enforcing the ban. And since the ban was passed in 2010 and the appeal only suspended enforcement of it, there will be no grace period for the business owners.

Eagles Ease Past Midway
Midway, Ky. - Asbury volleyball stretched it's winning streak to three after a three set win over Midway College on Thursday night. The Eagles had by far their easiest match of the season in winning 25-10, 25-10, 25-12.
Asbury (5-4) climbs above .500 for the first time all season thanks in large part to their current winning streak. Junior right side hitter Lauren Budde continues to pace the Eagles, adding 13 kills to her team-leading total of 87. More importantly than the 13 kills was the zero she put up in the error category on 23 attempts. Budde added two assists, three digs, one solo block, and one block assist on the night.
The Eagles had an attack percentage of .291 on the night, the second highest on the season. Senior Tina Marye led the attack from the middle with eight kills, while Brittney Rader added six from the outside. Senior setter Julia Armstrong continues to make the most of her playing time racking up another 28 assists to bring her season total to an even 200.
Asbury will take part in the annual Centre College Classic this weekend in Danville, Kentucky. Their first match is scheduled for Saturday September 19th at 1:00 pm against Spalding followed by a match against Transylvania at 3:00 pm.
