The premise behind Neighborhood Watch is simple.
"Neighbors working in conjunction with law enforcement are the eyes and ears of their community," said Pat Sill, president of the Maryland Community Crime Prevention Institute, which trains law enforcement and community policing organizations.
"If they see something suspicious they report it," she said of Neighborhood Watch volunteers. "They're not to be anything more than eyes and ears."
In the wake of the shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Florida, allegedly at the hands of a Neighborhood Watch volunteer, officials in Howard County may be taking another look at how community-policing organizations are operating.
"It always bears looking at when you have any incident," said C. Vernon Gray, administrator of the Howard County Office of Human Rights. He spoke with County Executive Ken Ulman and Police Chief William McMahon in the wake of Martin's death to revisit the operations of the local Neighborhood Watch programs.
Martin's death has led to a surge of public criticism, much of it expressed on social media. According to the Sun-Sentinel, The Department of Justice, the FBI and the Florida State Attorney's Office are all investigating the shooting.
George Zimmerman, a Neighborhood Watch volunteer, allegedly shot Martin on Feb. 26 as the teenager was returning to his father's house from a convenience store. Zimmerman has not been arrested or charged with any crime according to reports. Read comprehensive coverage of the incident and its impact on the Sun-Sentinel's website.
In Howard County, Neighborhood Watch programs work "pretty nicely," Gray said. "I know on my street … people don't go out in a vigilante fashion. If they notice anything suspicious, they will call police or notify neighbors."
Vigilantism is one of the reasons Howard County Police Community Liaison Bonita Linkins said she does not support neighborhood "patrols," in which residents take a more active role, patrolling neighborhoods instead of simply observing.
At a with residents of the Bethgate neighborhood, Linkins told those concerned about a rash of break-ins that patrols can lead to trouble. One incident, she recalled, "turned into a vigilante-type circumstance … It turned into a physical assault situation."
There are several key differences between Maryland and Florida laws, particularly Florida's " Stand Your Ground" self-defense law, which is being called into question by local lawmakers, according to the Christian Science Monitor. The law permits the use of deadly force if a person "reasonably believes" his or her life, or someone else's life is threatened.
Maryland has no such law, though SB411 allows residents to defend themselves with force in their homes or places of business.
And firearms are difficult to come by in Maryland – it is up to local authorities to approve or deny an individual's request for a permit although, according to the Baltimore Sun, a recent federal ruling may make it easier for residents to obtain firearms.
Neither Ulman nor Sill could say whether an individual with a concealed weapons permit is allowed to carry that weapon while participating in a Neighborhood Watch program, which is not administered by the police department.
"That's something that I want to revisit and make sure that we are square on that," Ulman said at a meeting Wednesday with the police chief's Citizen's Advisory Council.
"As far as weapons and that kind of thing, I don't know that it's anything that's specifically ever talked about," Sill said.
"It's eyes and ears, simply that."

BART negotiations stalled by union
Original post made by Right on Aug 19, 2013
Interesting that all the previous BART contract topics are now absent from the PW. Hopefully, this means that mikie cherry has been remanded into custody for vagrancy...or maybe he's the BART arbiter.
In other news, AC Transit may be going on strike, after voting down their lucrative contract proposal. What is going on with union controlled public transit and their sense of entitlement?
on Aug 22, 2013 at 9:54 am
I just noticed this Aug 17 posting. Hmmm, how did I miss it?
PW Editor's Aug 19 post on Unemployment rates rise again in Bay Area, reporting Alameda County July increase to 7.8%, and Contra Costa up 7.7%.
Aug 17 Contra Costa Times reported Bay Area net loss of 2,300. jobs.
This morning C-Span reported the 'US census Bureau and Dept of Labor Statistics' report AFTER adjusted for inflation 'Median Income' SINCE
JUNE 2009, down 4.4%.
Recap: Unemployment up 7.8%, 2,300 net job loss, Median incomes down 4.4%, hmmm help me understand, Alameda Co BART employees think they deserve their obscene demands!!!!REALLY??? We pay for our retirement savings plus theirs 'cuz they think they are owed that free, non-contributory retirement. $92.month medical contribution???? Call-in abuse of 'sick' days, then work overtime later in week and get over-time???
They whine they haven't had raises lately, for those who can read, check-out median income is DOWN, job losses UP, and BART dares to 'demand' more. If they were brighter, they would recognize they are LUCKY to have the HIGH paying jobs they currently hold. Shame on their greed!...and shame on CA 'leaders' for allowing this assult on the public.
on Aug 22, 2013 at 2:24 pm
Is the Governor of all the people going to help BART unions understand their demands are out of step with reality. Governor, make them justify how/why they think they are 'entitled' to a world of their own creation. The rest of us live in a world of July Unemployment up 7.8%, 2,300 net Bay Area job loss, and national median income down 4.4% since 2009....the SAME time frame BART is whining they haven't had raises. Why would they expect US to provide a different world for them?? Governor??? Do your job!!! YOU can be replaced TOO !!! (remember the kid under your first administration, later got recalled)...Do your job!!!
on Aug 22, 2013 at 3:15 pm
Kathleen Ruegsegger is a registered user.
This is just thinking out loud, but I wonder if the AC Transit unions think the BART unions might get more so they will hold out for the same. Another reason for BART unions to delay would be to coordinate their demands with AC Transit unions. It's been done before with other union groups.
Today's paper reported on a poll for a BART bond or sales tax increase to fund system improvements and the connection to the union negotiations. I certainly hope management and the unions realize they cannot negotiate with money they don't have or on speculation they will be able to pass one of the plans as a certainty.

My article revolves around the position of Pluto in Mary Shelley's chart and its powerful impact on the events in her life and her works - Chrisine Ferraro
Born of philosopher and political writer William Godwin and famed feminist Mary Wollstonecraft (author of The Vindication of the Rights of Woman in 1792), Mary Shelley's early environment provided fertile ground for the growth of her intellectual and literary tendencies. The loss of her mother when she was only 11 days old was the first of many indicators that crisis, transformation, and revolution were going to be a major theme in her life.
By Carol Tebbs, MA
Over 4000 years ago, nomads sprung from the soil of northeastern Europe and entered the Indus Valley of ancient India. They called themselves Aryans, or noble ones, and the religion they brought with them comprised the first practice of Hinduism. The centerpiece of Aryan religion was a fire sacrifice to the gods performed by priests specially trained to chant sacred hymns. The hymns themselves were known as Vedas or sacred knowledge. The Vedas are the scriptural bedrock of the Hindu tradition.
As her senior project and final paper for her East/West major, BA graduate Inga Thornell wrote a research paper on the role of women and myth in society.
The study of mythology and literature can be a useful means of determining the paradigms of a culture. This paper will examine examples of Goddesses and women from Greco-Roman and Indian mythology and epic poetry to determine what these stories show us about women's roles in these cultures and how these characters compare to what is known of real women in each society. The historical period under examination is each culture's "Epic period." The Epic period encompasses different years for each civilization in the same way that the term "iron age" does.
Myths and literature can teach us how another culture views its life events and how they view their gods. They provide insights about the religion, customs and rituals of a civilization. They also provide models of societal expectations and demonstrate human behavior. Myths also teach us about ourselves. In fact, it is too easy to read myth without acknowledging its own cultural milieu, and while its relevance to all eras is part of myths' appeal, this can cause misunderstandings of the myth itself. The myth of Persephone is a good example of this propensity to misunderstanding since moderns tend to read this myth through their own lens and to emphasize the violence of the "rape" motif without realizing that this is a tale of ancient marriage customs. While the event of Persephone's abduction and non-consensual marriage is shocking, the modern understanding of the word "rape" is not an accurate description of it.
by Carol Tebbs (faculty), Rhonda Busby (graduate), Kathy Kipp (senior)
Sometimes it is easy to forget that the great books of literature are riddled with astrological references. Contrasting views about astrological fate are important in understanding the interactions of characters in Shakespeare's play, King Lear. The older characters place great stock in the influence of the stars on human affairs, while the younger characters mock these superstitious beliefs. The viewpoints in the play mirror the attitudes and arguments about astrology that were taking place in the 1600's.
My first experience with the Kepler Certificate Program has been an amazing journey. After many years of reading and trying to understand how astrology works, I decided I needed help pulling all the pieces together.
Since I work and have a family, the Kepler online learning program has been a wonderful way for me to reach out to the Universe and understand just a little more about who I am and where I want to go. The teachers are extremely knowledgeable and accessible.
The online learning environment is a great tool with video, audio, webinars, resource links, pdf documents, etc. Kepler also includes their own text and work book and a great selection of an easy to understand astrology books. With the ability to review any area I may find challenging, my learning is exciting and adapted to my needs.
I am enthusiastic and looking forward to continuing my astrological search with Kepler.
Thanks again, Linda Schingen (W101)

Kimberly Read looks at self-injury, a serious problem in today's world. Young females especially are cutting, burning or otherwise harming themselves in staggering numbers. Who are they? Why are they hurting themselves?
Postpartum Psychosis
Postpartum psychosis is a dangerous condition that affects over 4,000 women each year in the United States alone. Left untreated, it can lead to the death of a child or the death of the mother. There is a strong link between postpartum psychosis and bipolar disorder, and manic-depressive women are at a much greater than average risk for developing this serious illness.
What is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder?
Many people with bipolar disorder also suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, often because of mental illness in their immediate families. Here is information about the disorder.
Studies Link Marijuana Use with Schizophrenia
Recent studies suggest that regular use of marijuana (cannabis) in adolescence may make it more likely for a person to develop schizophrenia.

LANCASTER — It was an emotional day for homeowners in Lancaster who had their homes blown to pieces on Tuesday.
Yes, they are worried about their homes, but many were even more concerned that they weren't permitted to get a close look at the damage on Wednesday.
That led to some chanting and heated arguments with racial overtones.
The city said it wanted to protect residents from looters and bad contractors because damaged homes are unstable, but some of the tornado victims said that because they are in the southern sector of Dallas County in a predominantly African-American community, they are being treated differently.
They let it be known that they are not happy about it.
Throughout the day, tempers flared between residents who want to get to their homes and officials standing in their way.
One couple held up signs saying, "Our homes not yours!" and "Let us in our homes or help us with our expenses!"
"It's a black community, and, you know, and they feel like, I mean, they can just do us any kind of way over here," one of the protesters said.
On Tuesday night, residents in the stricken area were told to grab a few belongings and be out by 7 p.m. They were told they could come back in the morning.
"They're controlling our neighborhood," the protesting man said. "This is not their homes; we pay for this ... don't nobody tell us when to come in and when not to come in."
They were frustrated after seeing tornado victims in other areas like Forney salvaging their belongings while they sat in frustration.
Volunteers from all around the country have come to help with cleanup and rebuilding efforts, but News 8 was prohibited from talking or taking pictures of any of them.
That all changed late Wednesday afternoon when roadblocks into the tornado-hit neighborhood were lifted and residents were permitted to return.
On Wednesday evening, a map was published outlining three neighborhoods that remain off-limits "until further safety steps can be performed."

Dell has reported another quarter of declining revenue and profit as the company's CEO continues his battle to take the PC maker private.
It was the fifth consecutive quarter in which Dell's profits shrank, and the fourth in which it reported declining revenue. The company has been hit by a downturn in the PC market.
[ Also on InfoWorld: Customers seek details on Dell's direction under private ownership. | Stay ahead of the key tech business news with InfoWorld's Today's Headlines: First Look newsletter. | Read Bill Snyder's Tech's Bottom Line blog for what the key business trends mean to you. ]
Revenue for its fourth fiscal quarter, ended Feb. 1, declined 11 percent to $14.3 billion, Dell said. Net income was $530 million, down 31 percent from a year earlier, while earnings were $0.30 a share, down 30 percent.
Revenue from desktop and laptop PCs, which account for about half Dell's business, declined 20 percent in the quarter. Sales from storage and services also fell from the year earlier. The only business unit to see growth was Dell's server and networking business, where sales were up 18 percent, Dell said.
Dell has been trying to reduce its dependence on PCs and refashion itself as a complete "solutions" company, one that sells higher-margin software and services as well as PCs and servers. But the transformation has been taking longer than investors would like.
Earlier this month, Michael Dell announced a plan to team up with Silver Lake and take his company private in a $24.4. billion deal. The move could allow the company founder to focus on longer-term investments, away from the constant scrutiny of Wall Street.
However, the plan has run into opposition from big shareholders, who think the $13.65 per share that the buyout group is offering doesn't reflect the value of the company. One big investor, Donald Yacktman of Yacktman Asset Management, has said the chances of the deal going through at its current valuation are "close to zero."
Michael Dell was absent from the company's earnings call Tuesday, and a Dell spokesman said the other executives on the call, who included CFO Brian Gladden, would not be taking any questions about Dell going private.
The quarterly profit figures reported above include one-time charges and other items. Excluding those items, Dell reported a profit of $0.40 per share for the quarter, a penny ahead of the consensus analyst forecast, according to a poll by Thomson Reuters.
There were a few bright points. Sales of network gear were up 42 percent, including a doubling of Dell's Force10 business, and sales of cloud security services also increased, Gladden said. The 5 percent increase in server sales was helped by strong growth in "hyperscale" servers, the machines Dell sells to large online service providers.

Two people were injured in a five-vehicle crash Friday morning on Hamilton Boulevard in Upper Mac, police said.
Hamilton Boulvevard was closed for an extended period of time while crews cleared the roadway.
Taken to a hospital were the drivers of two of the vehicles, Alison Patchoski of Blandon and Francis Young Jr. of Mohnton, police said. Both towns are in Berks County.
The accident happened at 7:03 a.m. on Hamilton Boulevard at Newtown Road.
According to police, Charles Johnson Jr. of Quarryville was traveling on Hamilton Boulevard when his vehicle struck Patchoski's vehicle, pushing it to the side. Johnson's vehicle continued forward and struck Young's vehicle, pinning it against a vehicle driven by Rene Aponte of Newark, N.J. The force of that crash pushed Aponte into another vehicle driven by a 17-year-old girl, police said.
The Morning Call reported that Johnson and Aponte were driving tractor trailers.

While some bring mothers flowers for Mothers Day, others visit their graves.
"She will be greatly missed", says Janet Townsend.
Janet Townsend decided to bring her family to the cemetery to visit their family members that have past, including her mother.
"My mom, our mother, there were three of us, she died in the tornado so this is her first mothers day, not being here with us", says Townsend.
Townsend's mother Betty was living near St. John's Hospital when the tornado hit her home.
"She was down to 80 pounds, she was on hospice, she was blind, she didn't hear very well of course but she died in the living room", says Townsend.
Like Townsend, William Watts wanted to spend the day celebrating his mothers life.
"Lovely, she was ambitious, she was always moving and we thought she'd live longer than that but she didn't, she was always ambitious and cooking and stuff" says William Watts.
However sons and daughters are not the only ones that visit cemeteries for mothers day, some mothers decide to bring their families here, to celebrate the ones they've loved and lost.
"My husband died 3 years ago and we lacked 3 months of being married for 50 years when he died and he was probably I think the best catch I could have ever gotten, I don't think I could have done any better" says Shelby Redden.
Shelby Redden spend the day with her daughter Anita, visiting her husband.
"If he would have been alive he would have been apart of our celebration and when the kids were little they would always bring me breakfast in bed and so I feel like he's still apart of our lives", says Shelby Redden.
Celebrating the family members they've lost and remembering the good times.
"And we know moms dancing in heaven and she can see again and she's looking down on us", says Townsend.

ROCK ISLAND, Ill. -- The effects of the sequestration are about to hit the Quad Cities.
For the nearly 6,000 workers on the Rock Island Arsenal, the sequester is about to hit home.
People will be informed next week that the furloughs will start in 30 days.
Around the last week of April is when the sequester becomes very real for workers, it is way more than just 'time off', it is one day a week, unpaid.
The cuts include positions from entry-level to management and are the equivalent of a 20-percent pay cut.

Last month we told you about a shipwreck revealed due to low water, now those who discovered it continue to dive into clues to unlock the Mississippi River Mystery.
So far it looks to be a barge, possibly from the 1920s or '30s that likely went down due to some kind of accident. However, there's still lots of research to do and permits to collect. They've still only been able to investigate what's on the surface.
On Tuesday, local shipwreck expert Randy Barnhouse and the children of Prodigy Leadership Academy worked together to gather information about the wreck.
Russell Grammer who runs the school and his wife Amy, actually discovered the ship on the banks of the river weeks ago.
"Some of us here, this is our first time getting to explore something like this," said Lydia Taylor, a student. "It's like treasure hunting."
"We found pottery that could have been from the ship," said Briana Coppieters, another student.
"We can go back to our school and from the things we learn here we can see if there were any boats that sunk on the river or what it might have looked like," said student Yienvi Johnson.
Tuesday afternoon students measured, explored, and even took out metal detectors, careful not to disturb the wreck as they wait for paperwork from the state. Once permits are in, they hope to do a real archeological dig.
"The important thing now is we are still learning even as we wait for that," said Barnhouse. Barnhouse says local archeologist, James Phillips is working with them.
The students have lots of ideas about what the ship looked like and how it probably went down in the river long ago.
"I think it maybe looked like a big barge except the front was more curved," said Kennedy Davis.
"People who were on the ship, maybe there was a bad storm and they got carried off," said Coppieters.
"It's fun to think about the possibilities," said Matthew Holman.
"It's a fun way to learn because most people wouldn't find a boat out on the river like this," said Amy Russell. "It's part of science and history and we want to know what happened."
Barnhouse says there are still numerous possibilities, but believes a barge is a good theory. He says he's anxious to get permission to dig before the Mississippi rises, and they lose this good chance.
"We still don't know what's inside," said Barnhouse.
As for Russell Grammer of Prodigy Leadership Academy, he's excited to see students engaged and learning. Tuesday some of the kids discussed turning the project into a book. Grammer says no matter what, they are in it for the long run. They are excited to see where this mystery leads.
"We are in it for the long haul. It's neat for them to see the process. We want to give the students an experience that ignites something inside them and gets them energized," said Grammer.

Locals: Ships are 'a two-fingered salute to Spain'
Locals waving Union flags gathered on the quayside to watch the British warships come in.
Andrea Jones, 46, works for an online gaming company and has lived in Gibraltar for 12 years.
She said the frigate's arrival was "a two-fingered salute towards Spain".
"I think the Gibraltarians are tending to be a bit more passionate at this moment in time," she said.
Retired Royal Gibraltar Police officer Michael Sanchez, 53, said he would like to see the British vessels off Gibraltar more often.
"It is getting to be out of control, it is not a spat any more," he said.
"It's a normal deployment but we need bigger assets to show them."

Contacting Dr. Waner's office
Use the central email*
to contact the office.* The follow up has been much smoother with this.... as everyone is able to read and stay on the same page.* *
Esma is still the first point of contact for incoming patients/contact.* All cases need to go thru her first!*
Danielle the office manager will be taking over for Janna in scheduling surgeries.* They are now giving out tentative dates into August.* Most likely these dates will stick, but she is asking that you wait to schedule flights about a month before your surgery date.
If you are a continuing laser patient, you can call and have those dates scheduled out.*
Esma will probably be the person calling you the night before surgery for pre-op prep.* *
The information that Janna once told you over the phone is now in written form and will arrive with your pre-op paperwork.
Please refrain from giving out their personal phone numbers.* The number of calls they receive is overwhelming.* Dr. Waner's cell needs to be for emergencies...and all emergencies should go thru Esma anyway.* Waner may call you, but it is important that follow up and contact info, details are sent to Esma so she can keep track of all the patients.
If you are contacting Waner for a second opinion, not necessarily wanting to schedule an appt., Esma still needs to be first point of contact...and express that this is a second opinion in the email...so she doesn't send it to scheduling...she will share the information with Waner...and he will contact you with recommendations.
If you email the office and do not receive a return contact within 1 week, email again and follow up with a call. If the case is urgent, please email the information (helpful to use the list of things they need to know on our helpful info section on the vb support group on msn.
) and then follow up with a call to make sure they received it.
I have all the office's contact #s (desk, pager, cell, home, etc.).* If you have an urgent situation please let me know if you can't get a hold of someone at the office.* I don't want to post my phone number on a discussion board...* I do not mind phone calls, but it is typically not quiet here with 2-3 boys playing!!!* *my phone number is also available on the vbf site under parent reps for Washington, Idaho and Oregon. My email address is also available under board members on this website. You can email me at anytime.* Because I work from home, I hear the incoming email often.*

WOW Promotions and Semaphore Entertainment Group (SEG) produced the first event, later dubbed UFC 1: The Beginning, at McNichols Sports Arena in Denver, Colorado on Nov. 12, 1993.
UFC 1, which proposed to find the answer of which fighting style was the greatest in the world, was witnessed live by 2,800 and on pay-per-view by 86,000.
The card used an eight-man tournament, with the winner receiving $50,000. On paper, it featured ten fighters in four tournament bouts and one alternate. The tournament had no weight class specification and consisted of single-round fights to the finish.
The match could only end by submission, knockout, throwing in the towel or referee stoppage. Despite the promotional theme of "no rules," there were limitations on fighters, including no biting and no eye gouging.
At the end of UFC 1, Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner Royce Gracie won the tournament, embraced the check and began one of MMA's most legendary careers.
Now, only weeks away from UFC's 20th anniversary, to say the MMA landscape has changed would be an understatement. The UFC has evolved at an exponential, almost unbelievable rate.
Today, the UFC fights can be found on pay-per-view in the U.S., Brazil, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Italy. UFC programming can also be found on Fox, Fox Sports 1 and Fox Sports 2, as well as, 150 different countries in 22 different languages.
Cain Velasquez vs. Junior Dos Santos 1 on Fox is now the highest rated UFC fight with 5.7 million viewers. UFC 100 is the most successful PPV show with a 1.6 million buy rate. UFC 129 shattered gate and attendance records in North America with 55,724tickets sold and gate revenues exceeding $11 million.
This is the UFC we know today, a fight-card nearly every week, a global empire.
But, it's easy to forget when a fight decision does not go with your opinion, or an upcoming fight card lacks star power or the UFC can't seem to sign a certain fighter.
At these times, try, if only for a moment, to think of where all of the other major sports were at their 20th anniversary.
Major League Baseball
Major League Baseball held it's 20th anniversary in the 1889 season.
MLB consisted of 16 teams with names like the Boston Beaneaters, Philadelphia Quakers and Brooklyn Bridgegrooms. The New York Yankees would not enter the league for another 12 years.
The Brooklyn Bridegrooms and St. Louis Browns played in front of the largest crowd in American Association—now known as the American League—history. 22,122 fansfilled Washington Park to watch the Bridegrooms defeat the Browns.
On October 29, the New York Giants won their second consecutive World Series by defeating the Brooklyn Bridegrooms 3-2.
Six days later, The Brotherhood of Professional Baseball Players, known today as the Major League Baseball Player's Association, started the process for a strike. The result was a new star-studded league known as the Players League, which only lasted one season.
In an attempt to prevent their players from leaving, MLB teams would spend the rest of 1889 in and out of court battles.
National Football League
The 20th anniversary for the National Football League was their 1939-40 season.
NFL hit a true benchmark in 1939 when it has its first broadcast game. NBC, in an experimental showing to viewers in Albany and New York, broadcast a Brooklyn Dodgers-Philadelphia Eagles game.
In 1939, the NFL consisted of eight teams, with forgotten team names like the Brooklyn Dodgers, Pittsburgh Pirates and the Chicago Cardinals.
The championship game, which was not yet known as the Super Bowl and would not be until 1967, was between Green Bay Packers and New York Giants. The Packers won 27-0.
National Basketball Association
The National Basketball Association celebrated its 20th anniversary in its 1965-66 season.
In 1965, the NBA had only nine teams, with forgotten names like the Cincinnati Royals and St. Louis Hawks. The Chicago Bulls would not join the league for another year. Two years later, the NBA would experience its most economic threat when the American Basketball Association was born.
Wilt Chamberlain, who won the season's Most Valuable Player award, was the season leader for points-per-game, field-goal percentage and rebounds.
In the NBA Finals, the Boston Celtics would defeat the Los Angeles Lakers for their eighth consecutive title.
National Hockey League
The National Hockey League celebrated its 20th anniversary in its 1936-37 season.
Due to economic effects from the Great Depression, the NHL lost two teams prior to the season, setting a total of eight teams.
The New York Americans started the year in first place, but then, several of their players came down with influenza, forcing a losing skid. Other players experienced season-ending ailments on the ice, like Howie Morenz, who suffered a fractured leg, and Eddie Shore, who suffered a broken vertebra.
The Stanley Cup featured the Detroit Red Wings and New York Rangers. The Red Wings won 3-2.

Core - October 12, 2011
I'm all for artistic freedom and allowing bands to ebb and morph and shrink and flower into whatever mysterious being they want to become. People enjoy placing restrictions on music. On what bands should do and how they should sound.
Whenever my favourite bands (somewhat inevitably) dissipate into a sound I no longer like, I usually find it within myself to let them go and make peace with their sound. OK, so admittedly I still struggle with Against Me!'s direction but I'm getting there. It's kinda been an amicable split. I have to say, the other metamorphosis that I am struggle to grasp is that of Blink-182. I gave the entirety of Dude Ranch a listen the other day, and then, perhaps stupidly, gave their new album a listen. That a band can base an entire career upon penning two-minute ditties positively littered in the worst, most distasteful lyrics and sentiments and then attempt to grow into something semi-respectable just makes me giggle. No matter how legitimate their new sound may be, I'll always remember their Big Day Out set ten years ago that was littered with mum jokes so drawn out and distasteful that even my 17 year-old self got fed up and wandered off to watch Sonic Animation. I also couldn't help notice, Blink's disinterest in legitimate musicianship back then kinda lent itself to sloppy vocals, but now that Hoppus and DeLongue are trying to er, sing, they're kinda failing pretty miserably at it. OK. Enough hate. May they live long and prosper and march right over that monstrous hurdle they set themselves in their younger years.
Alright SO, Soundwave's first official lineup has been unleashed to mixed reactions as usual. Headliners include System Of A Down, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Marilyn Manson, Hole, A Day To Remember, Machine Head, Lamb Of God, Trivium, Alter Bridge. Other noteable inclusions are Unwritten Law, Angels and Airwaves, Coal Chamber, Raised Fist and Letlive. The only Australian band on the lineup is Sydney's Heroes For Hire. Melburnians can join in the festivities on Friday March 2 at the Showgrounds. Tickets go on sale on October 20.
The Academy Is have released a statement about their recent split. Vocalist William Beckett offered these explanations, "I could say something like 'pride comes before the fall', or 'the skill in attending a party is knowing when to leave'". He goes on to assure fans that he will continue to work on a new record in coming months.
Californian old mate supergroup OFF! have announce their first ever tour of Australia. They've already been announced as part of the sold-out Meredith lineup, but now we have a Corner Hotel show on Friday December 9 AND an all ages gig at Fitzroy Bowls Club on December 11. Fuck yeah! Tickets are on sale this Thursday.
Sydney hardcore band The Bride were forced to offer their new album President Rd for free to fans in exchange for signing up to their mailing list, after the album leaked over five weeks before release. If you choose to buy the album, you'll score an extra bonus track. Your call!
Angels And Airwaves have announced the departure of their drummer on the eve of being announced for Soundwave 2012. Atom Willard was wished "all the best" by remaining band mates and went on to describe the split as "amicable". The band is set to release their fourth album Love: Part Two on November 11.
Bring Me The Horizon have finally commented on the altercation in Salt Lake City which saw the stage stormed by several crowd members and several fights break out. Oli Sykes explained on his Tumblr, "Not a member in BMTH or any of our touring party got so much as a scratch, oh one did want me to know he fucked my wife though, which hit me hard as you know I've been happily married for a long time now. Fucking mongs eh? What can you do?"
Victorian metal band The Red Shore have called it quits, explaining that they have "moved onto other projects and different stages of life…We are very proud of our achievements and have many great memories so…thanks for making our dreams come true and stay tuned for TRS members new projects!".
Gaslight Anthem have left reputable punk rock label Side One Dummy to sign with Mercury Records, the current home of Portishead and Noel Gallagher. Side One is said to be "super-happy for the dudes". The band is expected to record a new album next year.

Intel Capital and IFC Invest US$ 7.8 Million in Altobridge Growth
Mobile World Congress, Barcelona, February 25th 2013: Altobridge (www.altobridge.com), specialists in technology that cuts the cost of delivering mobile voice and data across wireless networks, has today announced that Intel Capital and IFC (International Finance Corporation) has made a follow-on investment of US$ 7.8 million in the company.
This new investment will provide Altobridge with additional capital to accelerate the pace of roll-out of its mobile data optimisation solution, Data-at-the-Edge™, in both urban and rural markets globally.
Data-at-the-Edge™ (DatE™) optimises data delivery for mobile network operators. It is a self-learning, content pre-positioning platform that enables network operators to drive down their data transmission costs while, at the same time, dramatically improving their end-users' Quality of Experience. The broad spectrum of its functionality includes HTTP acceleration, in-line data and header compression, user data caching at the cell site, data traffic management and least-cost routing.
Since its Series C funding round in 2011, Altobridge has taken DatE™ from concept to full commercialisation, exemplified in the company's recent announcement of a significant DatE™ enabled, 3G mobile broadband rollout with Maxis Berhad, Malaysia's largest integrated communications service provider. Meanwhile, commercial trials for urban DatE™ deployment are pending with leading network operators in the US, Europe and North Africa.
"Since our last funding round, we have expanded rural connectivity in Indonesia, Malaysia, Iraq, Niger and Ghana, whilst at the same time we have made Data-at-the-Edge™ a commercial reality. With some industry analysts forecasting a 13-fold increase in global mobile data traffic by 2017, wireless network infrastructures face a major challenge to keep pace with this level of demand. Managing, optimising and caching mobile data at the point closest to consumers' mobile devices is the key to alleviating backhaul pressure. DatE™ does precisely this, and the way in which we implement it makes it the first commercially deployed solution of its kind," said Mike Fitzgerald, Chief Executive, Altobridge.
"This growth investment will help fund our cashflow requirements through our continuing growth and it is further testament to the ongoing financial and strategic support provided to us by IFC and our lead investor, Intel," he added.

Live 105 Soundcheck Holiday Ball - White Rabbits, Band of Skulls and more
Usually Live 105's holiday shows are steeped with bands that attract the teeny-bopper groupie types, but this year that couldn't be farther from the truth. Live 105's huge December show, Not So Silent Night (12/11) and their subsequent smaller, and more intimate Soundcheck Holiday Ball is way more impressive (kudos to the booking agents!) than any other year that we can remember. Heading up Soundcheck Holiday Ball at Bimbo's 365 on Wednesday (12/9) is White Rabbits, Band of Skulls, The Lovemakers, The Downer Party, and if that isn't enough, they're also throwing in their very own DJ Aaron Axelsen into the mix. Tickets are totally reasonable ($15) considering that's what you would pay to see White Rabbits alone, and the best part? They're not even sold out yet! Not So Silent Night has been sold out for weeks, but honestly, Soundcheck Holiday Ball is more of a top tier musical event featuring excessive amounts of talent, hightlighting several Bay Area natives. If we had our way, we would be going to both, but since White Rabbits is a house favorite and we love to support locals, you know where we'll be spotted.

BALTIMORE (AP) - The Chicago White Sox have put right-handed starter Gavin Floyd on the 15-day disabled list with a right elbow flexor strain.
The move is retroactive to Monday. Floyd pitched two innings Sunday against Seattle before leaving with discomfort in his elbow.
An MRI on Monday showed no structural damage, but the White Sox decided the best plan was to put the 29-year-old on the DL.
Floyd is 9-9 with a 4.55 ERA in 24 starts.
Chicago recalled right-hander Dylan Axelrod from AAA Charlotte on Tuesday. He will start Wednesday against the Baltimore Orioles.
White Sox manager Robin Ventura says "Ax has proven he can pitch. Good choice. He's very reliable."
Chicago also assigned outfielder Alejandro De Aza (bruised left ribs) to Charlotte on a rehabilitation assignment.

Final Winner of FGCU Basketball Season Ticket Incentive Program Announced
DUNK CITY, Fla. – FGCU men's and women's basketball season tickets are selling fast and the FGCU athletic department announced the final winner of its month-long drawing that is part of its renewal incentive program.
In appreciation for its loyal early bird season ticket purchases, FGCU held a weekly drawing during the month of May. In the final drawing of the month, Jim Reutter won autographed basketballs by the 2013-14 men's and women's programs. A complete listing of the monthly winners is below.
The 2012-13 campaign was a historic season for FGCU, as its men's and women's basketball programs combined for 53 wins, the ninth-best total in the nation. The Eagles joined elite programs such as Duke, Louisville and Gonzaga last season as the only schools to win at least 26 games in both the men's (26-11) and women's (27-7) side.
Current season ticket holders who haven't renewed for 2013-14 still have until Friday, June 28th at 5 p.m. to purchase their ticket(s) at the upgraded 2013-14 prices before their seats are released. Fans interested in purchasing new season tickets can place a $50 non-refundable deposit to get on a Priority List. The ticket office will contact the Priority List during the week of July 15th to reserve specific seats. Seat location priority will be determined on a first-come, first-served manner, based on giving levels to the Eagles Club. In addition, certain priority locations now require a minimum Eagles Club donation. Also, due to demand, additional reserved sections have been created for the upcoming year.
Combined season tickets for both the men's and women's teams are available again for a combined 50 percent discount. Season tickets for either the men's and women's program range from $112-$332, while a combined season ticket (both teams) ranges from $169-$499 depending on the seat location and whether or not an individual is a renewal or new purchaser.
Tickets can be purchased in person at the Alico Arena ticket office or by phone at 239-590-7145. The FGCU ticket office is open from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. from Monday through Friday. Fans can also renew online or place the $50 deposit online at www.FGCUATHLETICS.com/Tickets.
Jack Long – Reserved parking pass for Alico Arena for the 2013-14 season
Patricia Scott – Suite for a men's or women's game at Alico Arena on a mutually agreed upon date
Bernard Bopp – Two (2) tickets to the 2014 men's & women's basketball postseason banquets
Jim Reutter – Autographed basketballs by the 2013-14 men's & women's basketball programs
On the men's side, FGCU won 14 of its last 17 games to finish with a program Division I record 26 wins. The Eagles used a 13-5 A-Sun record in the regular season to earn the No. 2 seed in the conference postseason tournament before posting three consecutive double-digit wins en route to the A-Sun title and automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament in just its second year of postseason eligibility. FGCU became the first No. 15 seed in NCAA Tournament history to advance to the Sweet 16 and the first team since the 1987 Florida squad to win its first two tournament games. The Eagles opened with a second round win over No. 2 seed Georgetown and followed with a win over No. 7 seed San Diego State in the third round to earn a trip to Dallas Cowboys Stadium for the South Region semifinals.
On the women's side, FGCU became the first school to go undefeated in A-Sun play in back-to-back seasons, finishing the season with the most victories (27) of the 13 Division I institutions in the state of Florida and captured the program's third consecutive A-Sun Regular Season crown (fourth in the last five years). FGCU secured the ninth-straight 21+ win in program history and participated in their sixth consecutive Division I postseason tournament (WNIT). Leading the nation and the Atlantic Sun in three-point field goals per game (9.4), for the second year in a row, the FGCU women's basketball team ranked in the top 40 in the country in 13 different statistical categories in the final NCAA rankings.

News: B.o.B. Shows Off His True Grit W/ Country Star, "Tonight Was Like A Dream"
Sunday, Oct 9, 2011 1:23PM
Grammy-winning country star Taylor Swift showed off her hip-hop love over the weekend by bringing out Grand Hustle's B.o.B. for a surprise performance in Texas.
During her Lone Star State set, Bobby Ray came out to perform his "Airplanes" single.
Taylor Swift is earning her street cred one show at a time. The country sweetheart has already shared the mic with Nicki Minaj, Usher, and T.I., and last night, T. Swift brought out B.o.B during her "Speak Now" concert at Cowboys Stadium in Dallas, Texas. Bobby Ray surprised thousands of concertgoers when he jumped on stage to perform his hit single "Airplanes," with Taylor singing Hayley Williams' part. (Rap-Up)
Following the performance, Swift hopped on Twitter to give post-set reactions.
"Tonight was like a dream. That crowd.. The biggest indoor stadium in the world. And singing 'Airplanes' with B.O.B. !!!!! (@bobatl)," she tweeted October 9th. (Taylor Swift's Twitter)
Last week, Swift recruited B.o.B.'s Grand Hustle boss T.I. for a surprise appearance in Atlanta.
Rapper T.I. has joined country star Taylor Swift in a surprise duet at her concert in Atlanta. Toward the end of Swift's set on Sunday night, she introduced T.I. by singing the opening chorus of his hit song "Live Your Life." The packed house at Philips Arena screamed once he stepped onstage for the unannounced appearance and started to rap. The two Grammy winners stood side-by-side as he rapped and she sang a vocal part originally handled by Rihanna. The Sunday show was a makeup performance for a postponed July show. (Chicago Sun-Times)
No stranger to hip-hop, the country star showed off her love for the genre last summer.
Even if Eminem's lyrics are saying something like "I love you," he raps it in such an angry way that any affection is pretty lost. That's the way Eminem is, we know, but sometimes we would like to hear a softer side to his songs--and now we can! Cutie-patootie Taylor Swift decided to take out her inner thug and cover the hit song "Lose Yourself" during her show in Grand Rapids, Mich., but the gangster vibe didn't really last... T.Swift punctuated her performance with a random "Yo!" here and there, but that's about as street as the country crooner can get. Still, Taylor strumming her guitar as she half-raps, half-sings the lyrics is an adorable sight to see. It's also probably the nicest Eminem song we'll ever hear. (E! Online)
Check out footage from Taylor Swift's performance below:

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A 73-year-old diabetic whose PT Cruiser crashed into a bus stop shelter in City Heights, killing a woman and seriously injuring her 4-year-old son and his father, was sentenced Friday to three years probation and barred from driving during that period.
Jean Chizer-Williams pleaded guilty in January to a felony charge of gross vehicular manslaughter and a misdemeanor count of driving on a suspended license.
Judge Charles Gill ordered the defendant to be on electronic surveillance for a year. He also suspended an eight-year prison sentence for Chizer-Williams, which could be imposed should she violate probation.
Prosecutors said the defendant had been driving even though her license had been suspended because of her medical condition, and her blood-sugar level was extremely low at the time of the June 4, 2011, crash.
Chizer-Williams was driving about 35 mph when she lost control of her vehicle and crashed into the bus shelter in the 4800 block of University Avenue, killing 25-year-old Vanessa Mae Shane.
Shane's 4-year-old son, Elijah, and boyfriend David Abilez -- the boy's father -- were seriously injured. Both had multiple broken bones and the child had shards of glass stuck in his liver, authorities said.
A prosecutor said Chizer-Williams had been involved in three prior non-injury collisions since 2006 due to the same set of circumstances. He said the defendant has had her driver's license suspended three times.

Old Man Winter might have one final chill up his sleeve before spring arrives. FOX 5 Chief Meteorologist Ken Cook says there's a chance of a wintry mix at the end of the week.A storm system currently on the west coast is rapidly moving eastward. It should combine with colder temperatures on the next couple of days, and if enough moisture arrives by Friday morning, Ken says we could see light sleet or snow in the metro Atlanta area late Thursday night/early Friday. Residents in the north Georgia mountains could even see a light dusting, Ken said.
The National Weather Service in Peachtree City has issued a Freeze Warning which is in effect from 4 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Thursday.
Bottom line: don't put your winter gear away even though spring is set to officially begin on Wednesday.

PLATTSBURGH — Regional health-care facilities have not used the pain medication targeted in the recent meningitis outbreak across the nation.
As of Wednesday, the Centers for Disease Control had confirmed 111 cases of meningitis in 10 states, including 11 total deaths in Tennessee, Virginia, Michigan and Maryland.
The CDC has linked those confirmed cases to an injectable steroid manufactured by New England Manufacturing Compound, located in Framingham, Mass.
"Adirondack Medical Center does not use and has never distributed the injectable steroid currently linked to the meningitis outbreak being reported in the national media," said AMC spokesperson Joe Riccio in a press release issued by the Saranac Lake hospital.
"AMC has never purchased nor distributed any products from this drug maker."
Michael Harvey, manager of the CVPH Pharmacy in Plattsburgh also noted that the Medical Center has not purchased any injectable medications from New England Manufacturing.
"We do not buy injectables from anyone that uses compounds from raw materials as a matter of policy," said Thom Gosrich, director of the CVPH Pharmacy.
New England Manufacturing Compound is referred to as a "specialty pharmacy" that combines medications to meet a client's needs.
"The problem with specialty pharmacies is that they are not subject to FDA regulations," said Dr. Thierry Bonnabesse, founder of Champlain Spine and Pain Management on Tom Miller Road in Plattsburgh. "We buy exclusively from the manufacturer and have not purchased any products from this company."
Elizabethtown Community Hospital has not bought products from the Framingham facility either, said spokesperson Jane Hooper.
"The hospital does not perform epidural injections," said Grant Martin, ECH director of pharmacy, "and the compounding pharmacy in Massachusetts that has been identified as the source is not the hospital's supplier of medications."
New England Manufacturing typically distributes medicines to pain-management centers as opposed to hospitals, Martin noted.

Where beanID can be any string which is used to lookup look up the bean in the Registry
|The method name that bean will be invoked. If not provided, Fuse Mediation Router will try to pick the method itself. In case of ambiguity an exception is thrown. See Bean Binding for more details.
|If enabled, Fuse Mediation Router will cache the result of the first Registry look-up. Cache can be enabled if the bean in the Registry is defined as a singleton scope.
|Fuse Mediation Router 1.5: How to treat the parameters which are
passed from the message body; if it is
true, the In message body should
be an array of parameters.
You can append query options to the URI in the following format,
The object instance that is used to consume messages must be explicitly registered with
the Registry. For example, if you are using Spring you must
define the bean in the Spring configuration,
spring.xml; or if you don't
use Spring, put the bean in JNDI.
// lets populate the context with the services we need // note that we could just use a spring.xml file to avoid this step JndiContext context = new JndiContext(); context.bind("bye", new SayService("Good Bye!")); CamelContext camelContext = new DefaultCamelContext(context);
Once an endpoint has been registered, you can build routes that use it to process exchanges.
// lets add simple route camelContext.addRoutes(new RouteBuilder() { public void configure() { from("direct:hello").to("bean:bye"); } });
A bean: endpoint cannot be defined as the input to the route; i.e. you cannot consume from it, you can only route from some inbound message Endpoint to the bean endpoint as output. So consider using a direct: or queue: endpoint as the input.
You can use the
createProxy() methods on ProxyHelper to create a proxy that will generate BeanExchanges and send them to any
Endpoint endpoint = camelContext.getEndpoint("direct:hello"); ISay proxy = ProxyHelper.createProxy(endpoint, ISay.class); String rc = proxy.say(); assertEquals("Good Bye!", rc);
And the same route using XML DSL:
<route> <from uri="direct:hello"> <to uri="bean:bye"/> </route>
Fuse Mediation Router also supports invoking Bean as an Endpoint. In the route below:
<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring"> <route> <from uri="direct:start"/> <to uri="myBean"/> <to uri="mock:results"/> </route> </camelContext> <bean id="myBean" class="org.apache.camel.spring.bind.ExampleBean"/>
What happens is that when the exchange is routed to the
myBean Fuse Mediation Router
will use the Bean Binding to invoke the bean. The source
for the bean is just a plain POJO:
public class ExampleBean { public String sayHello(String name) { return "Hello " + name + "!"; } }
Fuse Mediation Router will use Bean Binding to invoke the
sayHello method, by converting the Exchange's In body to the
String type and storing the output of the method on the Exchange Out
How bean methods to be invoked are chosen (if they are not specified explicitly through
the method parameter) and how parameter values are
constructed from the
Message are all defined by the Bean Binding mechanism which is used throughout all of the
various Bean Integration mechanisms in
Fuse Mediation Router.

Entourage Tech Quiz on Geeksugar 2007-08-20 04:27:08
Entourage Tech Quiz: Episode 53 (Snow Job)
Following the success of last week's The Hills season 3 tech quiz and a bevy of e-mails from you readers, we realized we really should focus on all the gadget goodness on HBO's Entourage. We may be late in the season, but last night's episode was probably the most cell phone laden show in the history of television. Take our quiz and see if you were paying attention to all the Smartphones, flatscreens, conference calls and computers in last night's episode. Or just guess and aim high. Chances are, you'll get it right.

An Alabama woman was ticketed four different times in a matter hours for speeding as fast as 112 mph on Interstate 90 in southern Minnesota.
A Minnesota trooper first stopped the 49-year-old woman in Martin County at 2:25 p.m. last Friday after dispatchers received two separate complaints of a vehicle speeding and weaving in-and-out of traffic on I-90.
The driver was ticketed for speeding, failure to provide proof of insurance and possession of marijuana.
But the woman didn't take the trooper's advice to slow down. She continued to burn a path down I-90 toward her destination of Racine, Wis., making it just 20 miles before another trooper caught her at 99 mph.
Another ticket, another warning to slow down.
After the second speeding ticket was issued, a call was put out to Minnesota troopers and the Wisconsin State Patrol to be on the lookout for the Alabama woman.
It didn't take long for her to push the medal to the metal a third time. About an hour and 10 minutes later, another trooper caught the woman driving 88 mph in Freeborn County.
Three strikes you're out, right?
The woman was ticketed a third time and sent on her way, getting stopped a fourth time for driving 88 mph in a 70 mph zone just before the Minnesota-Wisconsin border.
The driver faces more than $500 in fines.
State Patrol Lt. Eric Roeske told the Star Tribune that troopers must follow booking guidelines, and the driver didn't meet the criteria for jailing. Had she been clocked at 100 mph a second time, or had she been in possession of a larger amount of marijuana, troopers would have made an arrest.

College Entrepreneurs: 10 Free Marketing Tactics for a Frugal Startup Budget0
Are you thinking of starting a business while you are in college? Possibly you already have?!
Sure, it is important to be as frugal as possible while you are studying to gain an undergraduate (or graduate) degree. But don't let lean pockets put a damper on your ambitions to launch your big idea.
There are numerous budget-friendly ways to market yourself and your college business — from social media and networking to pitch events and even volunteering.
Here are 10 simple, no-cost marketing tactics that can propel your college business forward:
1. Chambers of Commerce
Almost every city across the nation has organizations which exist to promote small businesses. Best of all, their business and networking programs are often subsidized — which means they are primarily volunteer-driven. What better way to meet local executives than to work alongside them? Locate a Chamber of Commerce in your area using this free Chamber directory.
2. Facebook Business Page
Facebook — the world's largest social network — currently boasts over 1 billion users. In fact "if Facebook were a country it would be the world's 3rd largest; 2x the size of the U.S. population," according to Socialnomics. Just as impressive are the "11 million businesses that are using Facebook Pages" to market their products and services. pages on it. Claim yours to get started.
3. Twitter Business Profile
Twitter is equally as powerful as Facebook in terms of influence and reach. "Since Twitter first opened its doors back in 2006, more than 163 billion tweets have been sent on the micro-blogging social network." Its viral nature enables anyone in the world, with a Twitter to account, to read and share your company updates; learn who you follow, what you like and even share the photos you take. It's also a great way to learn what your customers are talking about online as you develop your company's products and services.
4. Google Places for Business
According to Google, "97% of consumers search for local businesses online." So why not make it easier for potential customers to find you online using Google's free local platform — Google Places. Manage your business information and let customers rate, review and upload photos through Google's new local search experience, Google+ Local.
5. Local Business Plan Contests
Generally, every state offers free and sponsored business plan competitions to incentivize top ideas from up-and-coming entrepreneurs. By participating in a local business plan contest you can potentially win cash, small business services (e.g. legal, funding, marketing advice) and gain powerful connections with local business leaders within your community.

PRESCOTT, Ariz. (AP) - Northern Arizona authorities say a suspect wanted in connection with a homicide in Prescott has been arrested in Nevada.
Prescott police said Monday that 61-year-old Charles "Chuck" Todd was taken into custody in Henderson, Nev., where he lives.
They say Todd is being held awaiting extradition to Arizona to face first-degree murder charges.
Police say 52-year-old David W. Mueller died in his Prescott home on Nov. 16.
They say Todd was a friend of the Mueller family and spent some time with Mueller's wife in both Prescott and Henderson.
Investigators served search warrants in Henderson, Boulder City and Prescott and say they obtained evidence related to the homicide.
Details of how Mueller died aren't immediately available, but police say he had been dealing with some medical issues at the time.

Problem gambling is a progressive disorder in which an individual has a psychological preoccupation and urge to gamble. This results in excessive gambling, the outcome of which is the loss of time, money and self-esteem. The gambling can progress to a point at which it compromises, disrupts, and ultimately destroys the gambler's personal life, family relationships and vocational pursuits. These problems in turn lead to intensification of the gambling behavior. The principle features of problem gambling are emotional dependence on gambling, loss of control and interference with normal functioning.
Just as some people can become addicted to drugs and alcohol, it is possible for a person to become obsessed with an uncontrollable urge to gamble. The impact of this addiction is much greater than the obvious financial losses that can result from repeated gambling. The long-term result is a steady deterioration of the mental and physical health of both the gambler and their family.
|Adam*, a bright, energetic 15 year old, remembers what it was like when his Mom was still gambling. "I ate lunch and dinner at my friend's house really often. I always hung out there when there was no food at our house, hoping my friend's parents would invite me to eat with them." Adam was only eight years old at the time and was unaware that his Mom was spending the grocery money on gambling.
|Shelly* recalls the humiliation she felt the day a security guard brought her children in to the grocery store to find their mother. She was busy playing video poker and had left her two young children in the parked car. Although they suffered no physical harm, the emotional pain was no less damaging.
|Richard*, a successful 45 year old executive, began gambling to deal with boredom and loneliness after his marriage ended in divorce. His healthy financial condition enabled him to gamble for many years with seemingly little consequence. Over time, however, the money ran out, the credit ran up, the house went into foreclosure and his depression accelerated. His financial, emotional and physical health deteriorated along with his work performance. The company decided to let him go, providing him with a substantial severance pay for his twenty years of service – which he eventually lost through continued gambling.
|A high school counselor, concerned about the deteriorating academic performance of a senior honors student, questioned the young man about the situation. After repeated denials that any problem existed, the young man finally admitted that he had no time for schoolwork because he was trying to hold down a full-time job. His reason? Both parents were gambling uncontrollably and he need the income to help make the mortgage payments on the family's home.

Problem gambling, like most addictions does not discriminate. A small percentage of people who gamble will develop gambling problems regardless of age, race, gender or socio-economic status. Although it is not possible to predict exactly who may develop a gambling problem, once identified, it can be successfully treated.

Every year, people around the globe start the year with a series of resolutions, and it's no different around here. The following are five things topping our 2013 to-do list:
1. See Someplace New
It seems like there's a cultural or architectural treasure springing up in every city these days. Find one and visit it. Our short list of must-see items this year includes architect Daniel Libeskind's wing at the Denver Art Museum, followed by a glass of wine at the High Sierra Camps in Yosemite National Park (both pictured above).
2. Act Locally
We've been obsessed with locally roasted coffee from Cafecito Organico and Intelligentsia, not to mention design-savvy LA Mill (pictured above). Nothing beats a fresh cup within walking distance. This year we're going to walk more and discover the world right outside our doorstep. Architecture and design writer Alyssa Walker turned us onto the joy of walking with her blog Gelato Baby, and guess what we've noticed? There's no better way to see how others mix and match modern ceiling lights and crystal chandeliers (many of which I recognize from our website) in their homes than to peer into their front windows as we walk past. We also discovered that walking a dog makes us look less creepy as we do it.
3. Stay Centered
White Leather Low Back Swivel Office Chair, Robert Abbey Havana Polished Nickel Task Desk Lamp
It's not always easy to stay calm in the chaos, but one thing we've discovered around here is that clean, organized work spaces are a great way to fake the peace until you make the peace. Essential to a calm work space are a functional (and beautiful) desk lamp and an office chair that promotes good posture. Above are two designs we've been ogling as of late.
4. Dress to Impress
Size matters…with clothing anyway. This year we're looking for a clean tailored fit, and the Japan-based Free & Easy Magazine (which helped us find a perfect fitting boot this time last year) will be one of our top sources for cutting-edge-meets-classic personal style. Why walk out of the house (see resolution #2 above) looking anything but your best?
5. Read More
Reading more is by and far a universal resolution. Well, if your time is limited in 2013, there are still some great coffee table reads out there. We're looking at Michael Idov's Made In Russian: Unsung Icons of Soviet Design (Rizzoli) to fire up our aesthetic side, and John Long's fashionable tribute to early rock climbing, The Stone Masters (T. Adler Books), to fuel our adventurous spirit.
That's it for us. But we'd love to know: what tops your to-do list this year?

Wherever art collector, philanthropist and billionaire Eli Broad goes, star architects follow. As the lead donor for UCLA's Broad Art Center (2000), LACMA's Broad Contemporary Art Museum (2003), and the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University (2007), he has brought big names like Richard Meier, Renzo Piano and Zaha Hadid respectively to modern architecture, specifically museum design. And with his current project, the Broad Museum (situated next to the Gehry-designed Walt Disney Concert Hall in downtown Los Angeles), Broad introduces relative newcomers Diller Scofidio + Renfro to the list.
With more than 2,000 contemporary works of art to his and his foundation's name, Broad's art collection is too expansive to list, so I'll stick to the monuments erected to house it. First up is the Broad Museum, currently under construction (pictured above and below).
Nobody walks in L.A., and to that end cars feature prominently in this design, visible through wide glass windows on the lobby level as they enter the underground parking lot.
The just-opened design at Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan, is all Zaha Hadid--skewed lines and angles taken straight from a science fiction movie (below).
The windswept lines continue on to the interiors, where even the recessed fixtures continue with an asymmetrical theme.
The least adventurous of Broad's museums is the Piano designed BCAM at LACMA (pitcured below). Given that the institution is partially taxpayer-funded, the austere design is a bit more understandable.
In truth, the most prominent feature of the new wing is artist Chris Burden's light sculpture located next door (check out our earlier story about Chris Burden's artwork). If you're so inclined, feel free to shop our modern post lights and build an art installation of your own at home.
Lighting isn't only used as artwork, as the above picture would have you think. At museums and in the home, it's a critical part of viewing artwork. In recent years, the art world has increasingly eschewed traditional incandescent picture lights in favor of modern recessed lighting and fluorescent and halogen fixtures. Here are a few of my favorite designs for lighting contemporary art:
Juno 4" Low Voltage Chrome Adjustable Recessed Light Trim
Louvre 18" Wide Satin Nickel Finish Plug-In Picture Light
Starting your own personal art collection is a lot of fun. And who knows, someday you may find yourself gifting your art collection to museums across the country too. This is the season of giving after all.
