Linking you to resources and support in the lung cancer community!
Friends, In these last few years I've seen and participated in many discussions from diagnosis to surgery and chemo to recurrence. But I've not seen your thoughts on when 'ENOUGH IS ENOUGH'
After two operations, and three different chemos over these last six years, I found the last chemo to be doing more damage than good. There no longer was talk of a cure. From now on it was 'keep it in check.' So I then faced life on chemo. It turned out to be 'life in bed' as my legs and feet became immoveable. Like being paralzyed. i had always suffered with neuropathy but this time it crept into my hands and it became impossible to type. And walking was no longer something I could do.
After what I think was careful consideration, one day last month when I was to get chemo, I told the oncologist I'd had it. I have no idea when the end might come but I wanted it to be on my terms and I wanted to walk.
Since then I put myself into Hospice and it's been a wonderful experiene. There are now lots of people taking care of me, they all have different missions. And since this time, feeling in my hands has returned and I can walk. Not well. I fall a lot - but i have canes, a walker and a scooter. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate things I took for granted!
But here's my question to you .... would you have done the same thing? Will you? What would go into your thinking? Do you feel this is 'giving up' or just 'going your way' .... I would love to hear your thoughts.

Thank you Merry. I so agree with citizens who believe FINANCE should be taught in school. Just the basics. But we would all be so far ahead for the future. I'm beginning to think a conversation about 'end of life' wouldn't be a bad idea either. We talk about sex more than end of life ... and I am begining to understand why so many people spend so much to get themselves into the ground. AARP newsletter had an interesting fact this month - they said the number of people who are donating their bodies is way up ... because it is the only option one can select that doesn't cost anything~ Well - perhaps finance and end of life are all tide up, huh? Isn't it amazing how deadly disease brings up all these subjects?
End of Life and whole body donations has been a conversation in my family for many many years. My parents donated, but the talk was had with every child and grand child so all would understand. It wasn't that the cost was free. It was, well, as time goes on you lose touch wth people. Those that once were are no more and my dad, who lived to 84 and left this world by natural causes saw more than his share pass before him. To science, for it to explore... perhaps they can learn more. I have been a registered donor since before my 23 yr old was born. And although the paper work has not been finalizied she too has mde that decision for herself.
Hi ,
Thank you for sharing your story,it is so frank and shows a great deal of maturity and courage that led you to make the decisions you have made.Since my neo-adjuvant chemo and upper right lobectomy nearly three and a half years ago,I have received no further treatments,and enjoy life to the fullest,my only aftermath is shortness of breath climbing stairs and the many hills we have here in Scotland,mind you, I think I had these problems prior to my dx LOL.
As you may have expected,thoughts of my cancer returning are not far from my mind,and I have contemplated the scenario you have described,I honestly cannot say how I may respond,but I do hope I will make such decisions in the manner that you have described.
Eric ... Scotland huh? I'm a Kirkbride. I've never been 'back home' but I must believe I have lots in common with all there.
I had three wonderful years after my first chemo and lobectomy. Oh the things I did. I did everything on my bucket list~ I went to Russia and the Northern Capitals, and I learned how to swim. The swimming then took me to Cozumel Mexico where I snorkled with the fish. Oh I loved it ... and wondered why I ever put it off. My oncologist was optimistic that it wouldn't come back but it did. That's when I had the second operation and they found that some was inoperable. After that I started the new chemo - it was great and allowed me to keep going full throttle. But when the doc took me off after a year, it exploded within me. Lung became bone cancer. And they said there was nothing they could now hope for except to maintain my status. But they couldn't ... chemo really did me in the third time.
But - guess what? I found I'd done the most important things I had wanted to do - and I found that I had made impact on some people who were important to me - and as Amy so eloquently said, there were those who would remember my story. So now that I've made the decisions, I can relax. Lay back and enjoy those bed baths. Scooter all around Washington DC. Have little dinners out back on the patio. (I especially those in which I don't cook, just sit there.)
For you - I hope the best ... but also say Do all those things you've ever wanted to do. Better to do them when you are or think you are well.
PS - We just returned from my first cruise. Scooters are a gift from above. You should have seen all the people walking the decks who would have given anything to have my scooter! What fun!
Thanx Eric! mek
Hi Mek,
Thanks for your reply,think you should put Scotland on your bucket list,I,d be pleased to show you around.WashingtonDC? hey I arrive there for a week,from the 2nd of May until the 8th,then onto New York for some sight seeing.I am in WashingtonDC for LUNGevity's Hope Summit on the 5th and 6th.If you are up to it,I'd be pleased to share a pint with you,maybe even a Scotch LOL.
Eric, what a fun thought. And I'll be in touch nearer the end of April. My present state of health is tenuous. Each day decisions made regarding getting up and any activity. But most of all, I'm a FALL RISK - they are very afraid of me falling - and I have many times (and twice off my scooter!) but I keep this to myself! What it means is, I'm always accompanied so it's not just me but someone else has to free themselves up. If later it looks possible, I'll let you know.
Thank you for the invite and thank you for attending the Summit! mek
I think it is reasonable at some point to stop treatment that isn't helping, and switch to palliative care and hospice. In a sense, it is merely to accept that life ends, which we all know anyway. I hope that you find peace along the road you have taken, and have still let yourself be receptive to miracles.
First, I was just a support person for my sister so I am not in your shoes. I think "enough is enough" when you say it is. It sounds like you are much happier/feel better and you are doing things which is wonderful for you! It sounds like you are right where you need to be. My thought process gets tangled with my heart! My brain fully believes God has chosen our last day long ago & on that day we will be no more. My heart will fight with all I have to try to keep somebody alive and here with me though. Very complicated to deal with. You have found what you needed & it seems to be working great so enjoy it to the fullest!!!
Hi mek and Eric,
I'm in DC, too, so MEK if you need someone to accompany you to get that pint, just let me know!
Hi GADawg/MOD,
I would love to meet up with you and Mek,I am so looking forward to my visit and meeting up with some friendly natives,bye for now.
Wow! Great! I live in the Dupont Circle/U Street Corridor. As it gets closer let me know a good date and I'll arrange my schedule (Hospice aides and nurses come weekly). Then GADawg & I can finalize arrangements. What fun this will be! mek

Commuters are a tough crowd. They come spilling off the trains, staring at their phones, sealed off from the world by their earbuds, and trudging resolutely ahead on their way to work.
But on a recent Friday morning at South Station, something silly happened. Seven people waved colorful, mostly handmade signs and shouted greetings: "Welcome to Boston!," "It's almost the weekend! Woo-hoo!," "Happy Friday!" Even commuters had to smile. Some snapped photos with their phones to tweet or post on Facebook.

CATEGORIES MoviesWhen Moviefone stopped by the set of "The Incredible Burt Wonderstone," Olivia Wilde told us she was shocked to have landed a pivotal role in a comedy starring legendary funnymen Steve Carell and Jim Carrey, who play rival magicians, both of whom Wilde's character ends up assisting.
When she sat down during a roundtable discussion to talk about her character, she was simply dressed, unlike her red and black "luchador" outfit from the film. The scene that was being shot that day is the one where Carell's assistant quits suddenly and he recruits stagehand Wilde and forcibly shoves her into the sexy costume and out onto the stage for the first time.
No crazy costume for you? Wilde: Oh, no, not today. Actually, yes today. In this scene I'm changing into an outrageous costume, so we see the transformation happen, which is kind of fun. But the good thing about this is that we all wear outrageous costumes and we all wear wigs. Usually that's left to the women, but in this one men get to share the burden, which is great.
What's you character Jane like? She's very smart and she's confident, and yet she's a secret magician. She doesn't reveal that she's a magician in her own right until very late in the game. She's quietly brilliant on her best days [Laughs]. She's a little bit crippled by insecurity.
What is it like improvising with Steve Carell? I think the reason it's really fun to improv with Steve is that he's not playing a game of solitaire. He's very giving, he's very generous. He's kind of lobbing you the ball. I think he's a comedic genius who is really creating a fair playing field so that you have the chance to hit the ball back and have fun with it. It's not like he's trying to challenge you or dodge you, he's actually trying to rally. I'm using all these tennis metaphors! I don't play tennis! I just think that he makes it fun and all you have to do is listen and react and never say, "Yes, and..." You just go back to your basic training in improv. It's been really interesting for me to learn from all the different types of comedians in this movie. Steve Carell is so different than someone like Jim Carrey. To get the experience of improv-ing with both of them has been really tremendous for me. I'm just floored every day. I just can't believe I'm here.
What's it like working with Jim Carrey? He's wonderful! It's sort of surreal to be eating lunch next to Jim Carrey and then go shoot a scene with him. He's a comedy god; all of these guys are. But really, Jim Carrey, I grew up watching him. "Ace Ventura" blew my mind. To be with him and witness the process is such an extraordinary thing. I mean, he is a perfectionist. He is so incredibly physical, and in control of his physical comedy. It's like watching a dancer. It's amazing. He's always at 100 percent. I think I've seen "Dumb and Dumber" 47 times at least. Now to be able to watch what it takes to reach those heights with all these people... Comedy is fun to make, but it's taken as seriously as drama. I'm learning that in a really wonderful way and I'm hoping that this isn't the last time that I get to do that.
How did you get involved with this movie? I read the script a while ago and really loved it. I was really interested, not only because of the cast, which is obviously extraordinary and contains many of my idols. I thought it was a great role for me. It was something I hadn't done before. I went after it, I auditioned, I was up against some real heavy hitters and I was totally shocked when I got the role, because it's a comedic role and I was going up against some real comedians. I sort of thought I didn't have a chance in hell, but it was so fun to just audition for it I just thought I'd go for it and take a chance.
Were you a fan of magic when you were a kid? Yeah, in fact all my birthday parties had a magician. I loved it. I had the magic set. I just got the latest version and it hasn't changed since we all were kids. It's the balls, the cup, the string, the knot trick. It's all the same, which leads me to believe that enthusiasm for the simplicity of magic and the wonderment still exists as much as it did even with the Internet and all these new distractions. I think the enthusiasm for it is something people of all different ages can appreciate, which is why I think this movie will work, and because it's hilarious. I mean I can't believe a movie hasn't been made - a comedy, I should say, hasn't been made - about Vegas magicians. I thought the concept was really out there, but then we went to Vegas and we realized this is really a documentary.

Berry: Hampton will not change for Hamlet test
12:00pm Friday 17th January 2014 in Non-League By Stuart Amos
Hampton & Richmond Borough joint boss Paul Barry will not insult in his players by adapting their style to take on high-flying Dulwich Hamlet this weekend.
A brace from returning hero Dave Tarpey and one a piece for Charlie Moone and debutant Ben Harris accounted for lowly Carshalton Athletic on Saturday as Hampton stretched their unbeaten run to six Ryman Premier League games.
The Beavers have netted 17 goals in that time to turn the year in fine form and Barry reckoned Hamlet – impressive in defeat at Kingstonian on Sunday – should fear his men rather than the other way around.
"They knock the ball around and I would pay good money to watch Erhun Otzumer every week, but we are not going to do anything special to counter them," he said.
"It would be doing our players a disservice to say we are aiming to nullify them."
Hampton are set to be without Tom Hickey for around six weeks as he recovers from a broken nose suffered at the weekend.
But, despite his loss being a blow, Barry was confident of his side extending its good run.
"We're not playing all that differently to earlier in the season, it is just we are taking our chances," he added.
"Tarpey and Ben will hopefully take the pressure off Charlie Moone now. We've got on a good run before and long may this one continue."

The 2014 cost-of-living adjustment for federal annuitants and Social Security beneficiaries is 1.5 percent.
The COLA reflects the percentage increase in the average Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) for the third quarter of the current year over the average for the third quarter of the last year in which a COLA became effective.
Since the COLA is less than 2 percent, retirees in both the Foreign Service Retirement and Disability System and the Foreign Service Pension System have received a 1.5 percent increase. (If the increase were more than 3 percent, the computation for the two systems would be different.)
The 2014 increase took effect on Dec. 1 and was reflected in the first annuity payment in January 2014.
The COLA does not affect the salaries of federal employees.

According to Scout.com's Marshall Cherrington, local prospect Kaleb McGary has committed to the Washington Huskies.
BREAKING: 2014 Fife (Wash.) 4-star lineman Kaleb McGary tells me he has committed to #Washington. Picked #UW over #Wisconsin and #WSU.— Marshall Cherrington (@mcherrington22) February 3, 2014
McGary, an offensive tackle prospect, is from Fife High School in Tacoma, Wash.
McGary chose the Huskies over Wisconsin and Washington St. among scholarship offers from other schools. The 6-foot-8, 270lb prospect officially visited Washington on Jan. 24 and then received in-home visits from both Washington St. and Wisconsin last week.
Rivals.com currenlty has McGary as a four-star recruit and was widely considered to be Washington Head Coach Chris Petersen's second-most important in-state recruit behind Bellevue High School's Budda Baker.
It is unknown what role Washington coaches have for McGary, and could use him as a defensive end depending on how the depth chart looks next fall.
Via ESPN Insider:
McGary is a projected developmental size prospect with no offensive tackle experience. Has played defensive end where we see toughness and playing strength at the point of attack; shows strong desire when pursuing the football down the line to the sideline. Some time and a red shirt year will be needed to add bulk while learning the technical aspects of the offensive tackle position.

While a lot of 11 year old girls would chose the beach or Disney world for summer vacation, one little girl from Illinois chose Leesburg, Georgia.
The reason? She's a HUGE Luke Bryan fan and begged her parents to take her to Luke's hometown.
So they packed up the car and drove 900 miles and she got quite a surprise when she got her.
WALB News 10's Stephanie Springer met her today and tells us how it went.
Holley Horrell says she's Luke Bryan's biggest fan. Today she visited some of the spots he sings about in his songs like the Flint River and the Muckalee Creek. She even got to meet Luke's parents.
11-year old Holly Horrell says she's Luke Bryan's biggest fan. "I watch LBTV every week, I watch the videos over and over again and I have tons of pictures," she said.
She can tell you just about anything you'd want to know about him. "He has two Broncos, a black and a yellow one and a black truck," she said.
She's already met him so this year she wanted to visit his hometown. "I've always dreamed of coming here and seeing where he grew up," she said.
Thursday, her dream came true. She and her family packed up the car and drove 900 miles from Illinois. "Last year we went to Minnesota, the year before we went to Disney and this tops Disney," she said.
She and her family got an unexpected surprise when officials at city hall contacted Luke's parents. "I've never had anyone do like Holly's done she has hit the top of the chart," said Luke's mom LaClair.
His Dad took the family on a tour of Leesburg. First stop on the list? The Muckalee creek and Flint River. "I went and put my feet in the water because he sings about it," she said.
And Luke's mom, LaClair, met the family for lunch
It was a long trip but a worthwhile one. Her dad says they plan to leave tomorrow but says she would move to Leesburg if she could.
The family also stopped in Nashville just in case they
The city of Leesburg was more than happy to accommodate the family. Having a hometown country superstar is, after all, a great marketing tool.

Here is the original typewritten text of a speech Benjamin Graham gave in San Francisco one week before John F. Kennedy was assassinated. In this brilliant presentation, Graham explores how an investor should go about determining whether the market is overvalued, how to tell what asset allocation is right for you, and how to pick stocks wisely. This speech is a rare opportunity to see the workings of Graham's mind in the raw.
I am grateful to Mr. Richard A. Rigg of San Francisco, who was in the audience that day, for providing me with this copy of Graham's speech. Because I did not discover it until very recently, it is not included in the new book Benjamin Graham: Building a Profession, so I wanted to share the text online.

RICHMOND, Va. (WAVY) — Smoking while driving with a child in the car could be a thing of the past in Virginia.
State Senator Ralph Northam (D-VA), who represents parts of Norfolk and Virginia Beach, has introduced a new bill in Congress that would subject anyone who smokes in a car with a child inside of it to a $100 fine.
A similar bill died in the House last week and most think this bill could suffer the same fate.
Pediatricians agree that second-hand smoking causes health problems.
"Our clinic is filled with kids who are breathing second-hand smoke and their allergies are much worse," Dr. Jennifer Livingood told WAVY.com. "Their asthma is much worse and there is no amount of medicine that will fix that they need to get out of their polluted environment."
Opponents of the bill argue it's not just smokers' rights at risk.
"You're gonna tell a smoker he can't smoke in his own home and he's got kids?" Stacey Badger said.
Northam is a physician who is running for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia in November. His bill has passed the Transportation Committee and is moving on to the courts of justice.
Several states already ban smoking with kids in the car including California, Louisiana, Arkansas and more.

Mike Clark, former Lewis Cass High School band director who passed away last September, has been named the recipient of the 2013 Phi Beta Mu — Gamma chapter "Outstanding Bandmaster Award."
The award, recognizing an individual who has proven themselves as a leader in the instrumental teaching profession, is given to one recipient each year.
The award will be presented today at Purdue University at the Indiana Bandmasters All State Band Concert.
Marty Becker, chapter president, said a couple of members of the Gamma chapter of Phi Beta Mu, the highest honorary international band director's fraternity in the world, initiated a movement to nominate Clark for the award in August, something they usually don't do until January.
The decision was unanimous, according to Keith Rudolph, secretary-treasurer of the Gamma chapter — Clark, the sole nominee, should receive the award.
Members of the chapter were able to present the award to Clark before he passed away Sept. 30, 2012, said Traca Clark, Mike's wife.
Traca, who will be formally accepting the award today, said she was honored and thrilled Mike received the honor of Outstanding Bandmaster.
"I know he would have been so honored and to be the only nominee for 2013, it speaks volumes about Mike and his career," Traca said. "He knows what's going on now and I know he is smiling down."
Traca will accept the award along with her daughters, Sarah and husband Kitt O'Brien, and Catherin Clark and fiancé Brad McFarland. She said the presentation will be bittersweet since he isn't here to accept the award and it makes their hearts hurt a little bit.
Rudolph said Clark was chosen as the recipient for many reasons.
"Anytime you have someone who has five state championships, it's certainly notable, but it's not the only reason someone receives the award," Rudolph said.
"We hear from people and know he has been inspirational to others. The way he handled his life before and during his illness was something that inspired us all."
Former band student Ashley Ellis (nee Fisher) said Clark was a huge part of her life. Ellis, who first met Clark in 2002, was in the color guard, played the flute for concert band and was a band officer her senior year of high school.
"Mr. Clark cared for all of his students and always pushed them to be the best that they could be," Ellis said. "He had such a positive impact on the whole community, continuing the legacy of the Lewis Cass Marching Kings. He affected not only his students but everyone he met."
Becker, who has been a friend and colleague of Clark for more than 25 years, will be present the award. Becker met Clark in the 1980s when Clark was a band director at Whitko High School and then Wawasee High School and the Lake Area Community Band. Becker was Clark's sponsor in 2007 for membership in the Gamma chapter of Phi Beta Mu.
"He touched everyone with kindness and positive attitude and his impact and legacy lives on in his family, in the community, in the Lewis Cass band program as well as the lives of many former students and friends," Becker said. "If you know anything about Mike Clark at all, you know he is highly deserving of this award. Around the community and state he is known as a strong leader."
Traca, who has lived in Walton for 11 years, said even though her husband wasn't a born and bred Lewis Cass King, he felt as if he were.
Before he worked at Lewis Cass Junior-Senior High School he would attend state competitions and watch the Lewis Cass band perform, Traca said.
She added that she'd known this was the last job he would take from the very beginning, referring to his intent to stay until he retired.
"He always said Lewis Cass has something special. When he found out there was a job opening, he said it was his dream job," Traca said. "He was always a Lewis Cass King."

CATEGORIES Music & Musicals, Casting, Deals, 20th Century Fox, Movies, CinematicalOK, so the music snob in me is not thrilled that someone like David Bowie would appear in a teen romance with a High School Musical star. But, luckily I don't take these things all that seriously and I'm sure I'll get over it. Variety reports that the music legend is currently in talks to star in the musical Will. Todd Graff (Camp) co-wrote the script with Josh Cagan and Graff will also direct.
The coming-of-age story centers on an outcast teen who befriends a like-minded girl who regrettably also runs with the popular crowd. Vanessa Hudgens plays the popular girl Sam, who after struggling with a stutter, has finally made it to the cool table. Liam Aiken will play her socially inept band mate. Remember this is a musical, so the story doesn't stop with the usual 'opposites attract' teen romance. The two then go on to "form an unlikely bond through their shared love of music. They assemble a like-minded crew of misfits and form a rock group to perform in a battle of the bands competition at their school."
The cast also includes Lisa Kudrow (who really does deserve to work more; the woman is hilarious), and Scott Porter (Friday Night Lights). Bowie is still in negotiations, so there is no word on which character he would be playing in the film. Part of me hopes it will just be a cameo, à la Zoolander. Will is set to start shooting in Austin, Texas in February and should hit theaters (with or without Mr. Ziggy Stardust) later this year.

The disclaimer with every Ryan Braun story should be clear: He hasn't actually been suspended or officially accused of anything just yet. All of this news is based on a report that was based on a leak. So it would probably make sense for Braun to get suspended first before confirming that he'll have to serve said suspension.
But it's less of a rumor that might or might not come true, and more of a horribly kept secret. And according to an MLB official to whom Tom Hadricourt spoke, there isn't much of a chance that Braun escapes suspension for his failed performance-enhancing drug test:
But, here's the thing. An MLB official told me there are only two ways for Braun to win his appeal: Prove there was a lab error with the testing or say the Brewers signed off on the treatment.
I was told to forget proving a lab error because the system is designed to prevent such an occurrence ...
The MLB official also told me that the Brewers did not sign off on whatever substance Braun took.
Braun hasn't been suspended just yet, but he likely will be. And when he is, the National League MVP isn't likely to escape punishment without a more convincing argument than what's been suggested so far.

AMES, Iowa – Feb. 22, 2013 – 5 a.m. update – As light to moderate snowfall continues to move through a majority of Iowa this morning, the Iowa Department of Transportation is cautioning commuters to use common sense and their best driving skills to keep Iowa highways safe. Iowa highways are currently being reported as partially to completely covered with snow.
Fill your vehicle's gas tank. Before traveling in winter weather, always keep your vehicle's gas tank nearly full and make sure your vehicle is in good mechanical condition.
Use your vehicle's safety equipment. Your vehicle's headlights are a valuable asset when driving in winter weather. Turn them on to see and be seen. Make sure you and your passengers are wearing their seat belts or are in a child safety seat.
Never use cruise control during winter weather. Your vehicle's cruise control sensors may not work properly if the tires are traveling on packed snow or ice. This can cause your vehicle to increase its speed, placing you at greater risk of getting involved in a crash.
Keep a winter survival kit in your vehicle. This kit should contain items to help sustain your life and the lives of your passengers should your vehicle become stranded. These items can include: booster cables, candles and matches, a flashlight with fresh batteries, extra blankets and warm clothes, nonperishable food items, a can for melting water, and a snow shovel. Sufficient supplies should be in the kit for all persons traveling in the vehicle. Carrying a mobile phone in your vehicle is also advised for use during an emergency.
Use caution when approaching or following a snowplow.Snowplows generally operate at much slower speeds than other traffic. Snowplows can be forced sideways when clearing hard-packed drifts and generate a "snow cloud" that may impair the vision of drivers in nearby vehicles. Remain a safe distance behind the snowplow, pass only when clear; and never continue to drive alongside a plow. Allow plenty of space when passing the snowplow because the wing of the plow blade extends out to the side of the truck. Do not cut back into the lane of traffic too closely in front of a snowplow truck because the blade also extends in front of the truck. Remember the slogans, "Ice and Snow …Take it Slow" and "Don't crowd the plow."

The P2P clothing center receives a tremendous amount of support from the surrounding communities in the form of donated clothing and small home goods and the staff and volunteers need help sorting and distributing the goods. "P2P Social" will provide some of that support. Every Monday night that the P2P offices are open volunteers come together to sort and organize the donations, while enjoying a social, community focused feeling of well-being that comes from doing good for others. The program is just getting underway and we've already had a great turnout of all ages of volunteers.
Person to Person Director of Volunteers Janet King says the program is a perfect fit for a wide variety of individuals.
"We have all ages and abilities joining us - working adults, recent graduates and those looking for work who want to give back to their communities. "P2P Social" offers that opportunity during the evening hours. Volunteers can help their community, network and share resources."
After the volunteering, the crew heads over to Darien Social. We had a blast getting to know o!ur fellow volunteers better afterwards and we are looking forward to the next Monday night get-together. We hope you can join us!
If you'd like to come by, the "P2P Social" crew meets at P2P at 6 p.m. P2P is located at 1864 Post Road in Darien.

Among others, here were a few more poignant reactions in the wake of Michael Jordan's polarizing acceptance speech Friday night.
Matt Moore of Hardwood Paroxysm weighed in:
There was no revelation last night. This is who he is, who he's always been. I've long thought that there are two types of competitiveness. There are those that seek to be the absolute best at what they do. They strive for greatness, for glory, to accomplish the most they possibly can. And there are others whose entire universe is built around destroying their opponent. There's being the best, and there's "being better than everyone else." And they are different, though the separation is subtle. This is who Jordan is. It's why he shrugged. It's why he reveled in moments when he not only buried the last second game-winner, but did it in his defender's face. It's why the tongue wagged and he walked with more swagger than anyone. He loved beating people. So it's no surprise that on his night, he chose to celebrate his career by shoving it in everyone's face. Last night he put a clinic on Pat Riley, Byron Russell, John Starks, Isiah Thomas, and Jerry Krauss. "IN YOUR FACE, PEOPLE THAT ANGERED ME TWENTY YEARS AGO!"
The reason I have no problem with this is that the Hall isn't about him as a person. It's startling that the greatest player in league's history is such a jackass, and not so awesome for all of the glorification of him as not only a player but as a cultural entity, but his play is honestly worthy of all that praise. He deserves his own room at the hall. And he deserves to be end his career in the public eye in whatever way he chooses. And he chose to end it by shoving it in people's face and saying "Sucks to be you" to his kids. That's just how the Greatest Player of All Time rolls. I'm not going to tell him differently, are you?
While TruthAboutIt.net relished in the opportunity to highlight the competitive zeal that fueled Jordan's ascent:
Jordan isn't famous because he could dunk the ball, or drop 50 in a game. About 2.7% of all players who have appeared in the NBA all-time have scored 50 in a game. Michael Jordan ain't no 2.7%, his percentage is so minuscule that it's immeasurable.
Jordan is famous because he won. Won to the tune of six championships which easily could have been eight straight, and possibly more. Jordan won because of his competitive nature. And to remain competitive, Jordan wanted motivation, which in his words, he "desperately needed."
Think about that. The man admits to being 'desperate' for reasons to stay motivated, to maintain a competitive edge, a winning level. Don't chide Jordan because he's opened a window to his life that was previously unseen (or denied) by most, or blast him for mentioning all the instances along the way which made him a winner. When Jordan asked "what don't people know about me" in his speech, the answer should have been what their horse blinders of denial didn't allow them to see.
I'm not here to defend Michael Jordan, and I'm not a Jordanaire apologist. I simply don't want to be deprived of the 'whys' and 'hows' that helped create the man we celebrate with a Hall of Fame induction. And I'm glad I wasn't.
And finally, the Washington Post's Michael Lee sums up the entire ceremony in less 140 characters:

Montreal, QC, May 30, 2012 — Massive demonstrations in the city of Montreal have continued for more than a hundred straight days.

SLU groundskeeping goes green
Canton, NY, Apr 26, 2010 — In the ultra-competitive world of college admissions, a university can live or die by how it looks. The grounds are a huge part of sealing the deal for prospective students and parents. But universities are also trying to save money and reduce their impact on the environment. Tonight at 7, St. Lawrence University hosts a discussion about sustainable groundskeeping. One of the featured speakers is SLU grounds manager, Marcus Sherburne. Sherburne has sculpted golf courses and universities for more than a decade. In the last few years, he's begun changing his practices to reduce energy and use less pesticides and fertilizers. Sherburne took David Sommerstein for a ride in his four-wheeler to show him the difference. Go to full article

Dream Season: St. Lawrence Professor Plays Semi-Pro Football
Feb 04, 2005 — Superbowl weekend is upon us. For most football fans, this is a time for armchair quarterbacking in the purest sense of the word. We shout at the referees and the coaches and the players, but most of us have never worn a uniform or taken a hit from a 250-pound lineman. St. Lawrence University English professor Bob Cowser has written a book, called "Dream Season: A College Professor Joins America's Oldest Semi-professional Football Team" about his experience, returning to football in middle age. Cowser played defensive end in 2001 for the Watertown Red and Black, the oldest semi-pro team in the country, and a dominant force in the Empire Football League. After his season with the Watertown Red and Black, Cowser helped to co-found a new semi-pro team, the St. Lawrence Valley Trailblazers. He spoke with Brian Mann about the realities - and the subtleties - of playing a violent sport. Go to full article

Amnesty on red diesel if you help clear roads
8:00am Sunday 16th December 2012 in Local news By Amanda Greaves, Reporter
Farmers who lend a hand to grit and clear snow from the roads in Wharfedale will be allowed to use vehicles fuelled with restricted red diesel on public roads while on the task this winter.
HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has confirmed during extreme weather farmers can use red diesel in their tractors to help grit and clear snow from public roads.
Under normal rules, any vehicle being used to clear snow from public roads using a snow plough or similar device is entitled to use red diesel.
But only vehicles that are constructed or adapted and used solely for spreading material on roads to deal with frost, ice and snow can undertake gritting work while using red diesel.
HMRC now says it recognises the vital role played by farmers in helping to keep rural roads clear.
It has recently consulted on a proposed change to the legislation to allow red diesel to be used in tractors while gritting.
The body says it will adopt a "pragmatic" approach to the rules during periods of extreme weather.
It will not penalise agricultural tractors fuelled by red diesel for using public roads if they are clearing snow or gritting to provide access to schools, hospitals, a remote dwelling, or communities cut off by ice and snow.
Red diesel is classed as a rebated heavy oil – it carries less tax.
To use it as fuel in anything other than an excepted vehicle usually renders the vehicle liable to seizure. Also, financial penalties may be imposed on the owner or driver of the vehicle.
Call the Excise and Customs Helpline on 0845 010 9000 for more details.

CATEGORIES Interviews, Movies, News/Reactions, Interviews, HorrorI don't care much for Feast and I'm not a fan of the Saw series but writer Patrick Melton and co-writer/director Marcus Dunstan's The Collector is definitely my cup of team and Melton recently spoke with Dread Central about the possibility of a sequel to the home invasion horror flick. He also chatted with Dread about Saw II, 3D technology, the Oscar's
The duo is penning the script for the latest installment in the Saw series (lucky number 7) and director Kevin Greutert is halfway through principal photography after a studio debacle where Lionsgate went head-to-head with Paramount and exercised an option in Greutert's contract to force him off Paranormal Activity 2 and back to the Saw series. Adding insult to injury, this happened literally a few weeks before filming. What kind of film can you expect when the helmer has been unwillingly plopped into a chair just days away from shooting? Melton is keeping the faith:
" ... If anyone can do it, it's Kevin. He's been involved in every single Saw movie, and he directed the last one so he knows the limitations of the crew and the limitations of the resources, and so he's been able to adapt pretty quickly, and it's looking good. Because we are playing with the idea that this may be the last Saw movie and we are trying to wrap things up, it's made it a ton more ambitious."
Melton goes on to talk more in detail about what's in store for the film which may be the final chapter in the series after part six's underwhelming performance at the box office this past Halloween. Oh and let's not forget about that whole 3-D thing. According to Melton the idea has been discussed since Saw V and ""It can work really well ... ," he continues. "Marcus and I worked on My Bloody Valentine 3D, which lent itself to a sort of an over-the-top story, and it was quite conducive to the 3D experience of being fun and wild, like the five-minute naked sequence. With Saw VII, it's more of using 3D for the visceral nature of it."
Something I had been keeping tabs on was the team's potential collaboration with Clive Barker for Clive Barker's Hotel on ABC, but it sounds like the project is bombing at the studio. Melton and Dunstan were also on tap for the redux of Cronenberg's Scanners, but according to Melton there were creative differences and the whole shebang was too pricey to move forward with.
And what about a sequel to The Collector? Melton had this to say:
"I didn't think it necessarily would happen because while the movie did well for its budget, it certainly wasn't a blockbuster, but it did well enough that the film's producer, Mickey Liddell, wants to make a sequel and of course wants me and Marcus to be involved again. So we are seeing if we can work out some sort of a deal for us to write it and for Marcus to direct, but right now it's just in the deal stage. It is a possibility. I couldn't imagine it being made without Marcus directing it."

Today I review
A Life on Fire by Chris Bowsman.
The thing that stands out from the beginning of the book is Gerald is like a lot of us out here in real world land. He's an everyday guy with everyday struggles. In general, his life hasn't turned out the way he thought it would, something I think we can all relate to. His job has become a mindless exercise in futility. He is confronted daily with the true imbeciles of the world. Add to that, the death of his fiancee. Finally as his attempt to stop drinking and smoking fails cataclysmically, we find ourselves looking at a man depressed beyond all measure and struggling to find his place in the world.
As the line between his dreams, nightmares and reality begins to fade, Bowsman pulls the reader through an ever more frightening, bizzare, yet somehow believable series of events that force Gerald to find his way through the nitemares or burn forever in his depression fueled hell. Will he succeed? There's only one way to find out. Pick up this Debut novel by Chris Bowsman for $.99 today and find out why I gave this one 5 stars. It truly is a very impressive debut, one you can't afford to overlook.

UK distributor Autograph Sales will be launching Aviom's new AN-16/i-M mic input module.
The AN-16/i-M is a rack mounted mic and line level input device that contains sixteen high-quality microphone preamps with 24-bit A-to-D converters. Each channel has a three-segment level LED meter, a continuously variable gain control, phase reverse switch, phantom power switch and rumble filter. The rear panel is fitted with combo connectors that can accept either XLR mic or 1/4-inch line level jack inputs, together with the A-NET output.
The expandable "digital snake" system uses A-NET, Aviom's propriety network protocol, a revolutionary new technology that allows up to 16 channels to be transmitted through a single cable with only 3 microseconds of latency per additional device. Any number of output devices can be connected, creating the world's first infinite splitter.
Unlike a traditional analogue audio snake, the new system offers a distribution facility in the digital domain, avoiding the need for huge racks, as well as providing easy to install CAT5 cable as a substitute for heavy multicore, which can run for up to 500' (150 meters) between devices.
The AN-16/i-M can be used as part of a digital snake, along with all existing products in the Distributed Audio Network line, including the recently launched A-16ii personal mixer and Aviom16/o-Y1 Yamaha output card. It also sits alongside the already available 16-channel line input and output modules.
