You may have seen or heard my promo.
I have cancer.
The story airs Monday night at 6o'clock.
This is a little weird for me.
I'm not used to "being" the story.
I'm a reporter, I tell other people's stories.
I struggled with this decision.
So, bottomline, WHY am I coming out with this?
Okay, a couple of reasons:
1. I was gone about 6-weeks. I had hundreds of messages on social media with people asking about me & when I would return. Others sent letters, cards & emails. Many called to find out if I still worked for the station. I try to respond to every message I get, so I felt like there was an obligation on my part to be honest.
2. When I returned to work I talked with a couple of women who I have done a lot of stories with over the years. Both of these women had dealt with my same cancer and I had NEVER known it. I thought to myself, 'WOW, here are two women who have gone through this and survived.' It made me feel a lot better.
3. Eventually I'll be taking off this wig (especially with it getting warmer!) I want to warn viewers this could be happening. (I think I may have mentioned how a viewer called screaming about a colleague wearing a hat while he went through cancer treatments. I'd like to avoid this.)
So, all these things being said, you don't just have to be a woman or going through cancer to get something from my story.
My message is simple.
- I didn't have symptoms, but I maintained my yearly check-ups.
By doing that, I really feel like I've saved my life.
- If you have a doctor and he's/she's not giving you the time for questions or addressing your concerns- find another doctor.
Remember, your doctor should want you to get a second opinion. Don't worry about hurting feelings, we're talking about your life.
- But, that being said, you don't need a best friend, you need a skilled doctor who's at the top of his/her game.
Bring your patience. In that waiting room, you can bet everyone is going through something, whether they look sick or not.
I'll be hosting a web chat at noon on Monday, May 6th.
The story will air at 6p.m. (Monday, May 6th)
I hope you'll join me.
Isn't the internet something?
Wow, all of a sudden I've gone from broadcasting to Southwest Virginia to going around the country, even the world (where a Croatian newspaper said I was head of the station- hello promotion! someone better warn my boss! :)
Maybe you saw it that Saturday morning more than 3-weeks ago, maybe you've seen it since? It's about a Northern Virginia cat owner who is helping her furry friend lose weight by taking her to the spa for swimming. The video shows a cat. IN a lifejacket. At that point, I get the giggles on live tv. I'm not sure if it has ever happened to you, where you try to stop laughing, but it builds and builds, and well, before you know it you can barely breathe? Now- imagine that scenario, but on LIVE tv. Yep, that's my 30-seconds of "fame." Oh, the topper? At the end, it comes back to me, on camera where I snort (yes, snort- OY!!) and slap the desk.
Since the video went viral I've had people from all over the country comment how I hate overweight people, fat cats, the sick, exercise, how I could use more exercise, etc., etc., etc. - you name it, it has been sent to me.
First off, I wasn't making fun of this cat, people or anyone. A cat in a lifejacket is unusual (really, when is the last time your cat put on a life jacket and went for a swim?) Secondly, the copy indicated the cat dislikes physical activity. People, as a cat owner, I can tell you that is nearly every cat in the world. The look on the kitty's face was not joy. And the topper, after 6-months of what must be torture for this little thing, she's only lost one-pound. It seems a bit unfair, no? But, I trust that this cat's owner knows best (once again, I did not put this animal in the water.)
As for me, an important "What Not to Wear" moment - if you've got a chest, do NOT wear a flowy top, especially if you're only being seen from the waist up -oh, and button your jacket. Memo received, memorized, processed, etc.
For those who live in the Roanoke Valley, you know the 'DBJ weekend morning show is a place for news, sports, weather and a little fun. This was a segment near the end of an hour-long show. In no way did I mean any disrespect to the viewers, cats, their owners or anyone battling their weight. Please forgive me if you were offended by this video. That was not my intent.
This week a Wisconsin television anchor got national attention when she "pushed" back.
Jennifer Livingston got a note from a viewer chastizing her weight. Livingston says she snapped when she got to the comment saying she wasn't a good role model.
(To see the clip, click here, scroll to the bottom.)
The video brought mixed reaction to the WDBJ7 newsroom. Some said, 'HOORAY!!! GOOD FOR HER!' Others said the note wasn't that bad, they've gotten worse. One person said it wasn't bullying. And, others didn't see what she was so upset about.
As I'm sure we all know (and this applies to real life & tv) - if someone's heavy, they know they're heavy. If someone's gained weight, they know they've gained weight. Pointing it out, really doesn't help.
After the initial video, it's come out Livingston has a tyroid condition, which even though she runs, works out, etc. makes it tough to lose weight.
A few things came to mind when I saw this story:
1. People are very "tough" when they're sitting safely at home, on their computer.
2. I'm always surprised at the things people feel "entitled" to comment about. (Aren't there "real" issues to be involved in? i.e. the upcoming election)
3. Weight seems to be one of the only things left society is "ok" to make fun of/discriminate against (no one would ever make fun of someone's race, sexuality, etc.)
I can hear you saying, 'Susan, you didn't have to take a job on tv. This is something that reporters/anchors open themselves up to.' I would disagree. I have a job where if I make a mistake, yes, you're going to see it. I don't go to your work and wait for you to fail (which if you're human, you inenvitably will.) We all make mistakes, yours just aren't on display for +100-thousand viewers to see. Mine are. -and yes, I signed up for that.
But, it's the stuff you'd never imagine that leaves you (ok, maybe just me?) flabbergasted and doubting society.
One of our meteorologist was battling cancer. WDBJ7 did a special announcement. The paper did a story.
Anywho, the meteorolgist shaved his head because he was losing his hair due to the chemotherapy. He wore a ball cap and a suit. A man called in, screaming 'What the %&^%*$?' 'That's disrespectful!!' 'blah-blah-blah!' When the man was calmly informed the weather guy had cancer, he shut up. You could've heard a pin drop. The caller was apologetic and while he didn't say it, I bet he felt like a jerk. I hope he did. AND, I hope he learned a lesson - you never know what's happening in someone else's life or what someone's going through.
It's a good reminder/lesson for all of us.
It's September 2nd and all I can say is, WHERE did the summer go???
It blows my mind that we're beginning our descent into fall.
Maybe it's because I've been SOOOOO overwhelmingly busy this summer or -most likely, it's because I didn't accomplish a lot of the things I wanted to accomplish.
A wrap up (or "What I did/didn't do on my summer vacation" by Susan Bahorich)
1. The year of the wedding: Three of my good friends are/getting married. These weddings have/will take me to Puerto Rico, Richmond & San Francisco.
a. Don't forget showers & bachelorette parties.
2. The year of being broke: (see #1 & its addedum)

The Eagle-Tribune
---- — BRENTWOOD — A Salem man, arrested after photographing young girls at Canobie Lake Park, faces years in prison after he was convicted on child pornography charges yesterday.
David Lantagne will be sentenced Jan. 4 on three counts of attempted possession of sexual images, each Class A felonies punishable by seven and a half to 15 years in state prison.
Lantagne was indicted on six counts of the charge by a Rockingham Superior Court grand jury in December. He was arrested in July 2011 after a woman at Canobie Lake Park in Salem complained to park security that Lantagne was using a cellphone to take photos of her young daughter while she played in the water.
When confronted by security, Lantagne admitted having a "problem" and said he also photographed girls at The Mall at Rockingham Park.
He was initially charged with disorderly conduct and violation of privacy. The charges against Lantagne were elevated when Salem police seized his home computer and found images of nude young girls.
The children were not the young girls photographed in bathing suits at Canobie Lake Park.
Lantagne, 46, fought the charges against him, prompting a two-day hearing in June before Judge Marguerite Wageling, who found him guilty yesterday.
Lantagne's attorney, John Macoul, asked Wageling to bar the cellphone photos from being submitted as evidence.
During the hearing, park employees testified about their encounter with Lantagne, saying he held the cellphone below his waist to photograph the girls while trying not to be detected.
Wageling ruled in July that police had the right to confiscate Lantagne's cellphone and to detain him.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 25, 2010
Residents advised about wastewater spill near Walnut Lake
The City of Kansas City, Mo., Water Services Department and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources report that Pied Creek Pump Station discharged an estimated 50,000 gallons of partially treated wastewater into a tributary approximately three miles from Walnut Lake. The City's drinking water supply is not affected by this break.
The pumps at the station clogged causing the automatic controls at the pump station to malfunction. The overflow was discovered by Water Services Department staff at 8 a.m. on March 24 and ended at 8:30 a.m., returning the pump station to normal operation.
The City has posted the affected area to inform residents of the discharge and is working cooperatively with the Missouri Department of Natural Resources to mitigate the impact of this discharge. Water samples have been collected from the affected area.
The release of partially treated sewage from sewer systems, such as this, is known as a sanitary sewer overflow and represents a potential threat to public health and the environment. Most of the overflows occur during wet weather events. However, in this instance, the overflow occurred during dry weather due to the equipment malfunction at the pump station.
For more information, contact Colleen Doctorian, public information officer for the Water Services Department, (816) 513-0232.
The Kansas City, Mo., Water Services Department maintains and operates water collection, processing and distribution systems, stormwater management and control systems, and waste water collection and processing systems for residential and business customers in Kansas City and for wholesale customers in the Kansas City region. Operation is funded entirely by fees charged to customers based on their use of products and services, not by taxes.

As an NES but not an English phonetics specialist:
I'd not specifically noticed it before, but "t" followed by the long vowel "u" could sound as though it's pronounced "chew...". It also occurs in words such as "tuna (fish)", "Tunisia", "tunes" etc.
If "t" is followed by a short "u" it's pronounced as in "tummy".
I would, however, defer to the phonetics specialists on the forum for a definitive answer.
Best regards

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to add an attribute to an entity, however it seems that the AttributeDefinition requires a Point3d and as such appear in my modelspace. I don't want this, i just wanted it to appear as an attribute with a value when i click on my entity, is there any way of making it so that i does not add into modelspace?
{ BlockTable bt = (BlockTable)trans.GetObject(db.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead); for (int i = 0; i < prSelectionResult.Value.Count; i++) { // Get the entity the user had selected Entity ent = (Entity)trans.GetObject(prSelectionResult.Value[i]
.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForWrite); if (ent.GetType() == typeof(BlockReference)) { // Add attribute to layer BlockReference blockRef = (BlockReference)ent; AttributeDefinition attDef = new AttributeDefinition(new Point3d(0d, 0d, 0d), "World, I'm an attribute!", "Hello", "", db.Textstyle); // Add the attribute to to the BlockTrableRecord of the blockdefinition of the selected block ObjectId btrId = blockRef.BlockTableRecord; BlockTableRecord btrBlock = (BlockTableRecord)trans.GetObject(btrId, OpenMode.ForWrite); btrBlock.AppendEntity(attDef); trans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(attDef, true); // Add the AttributeReference to the BlockReference AttributeReference attRef = new AttributeReference(); attRef.SetAttributeFromBlock(attDef, blockRef.BlockTransform); blockRef.AttributeCollection.AppendAttribute(attRe f); trans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(attRef, true); } }
Solved! Go to Solution.
I was searching through other posts and examples in the forums and came across this. What it does is add an attribute to an entity, in this case:
Hello: World, I'm an Attribute!
As you can see in the attached photo however, the attribute is also placed into modelspace as per the lines:
BlockReference blockRef = (BlockReference)ent; AttributeDefinition attDef = new AttributeDefinition(new Point3d(0d, 0d, 0d), "World, I'm an Attribute!", "Hello", "", db.Textstyle);
What i'm trying to do is avoid having the attribute placed in my modelspace, just in the entity.
Do I understand correctly that you do not want to attributes were visible on the screen (model space)?
Then it is sufficient to set their property Invisible to true or property Visible to false.
Property Visible is common entity property, but Invisible is only AttributeReference (and AttributeDefinition) property.
attdef.Invisible = true;
attref.Invisible = true;
Fantastic!!!! That's exactly what i was looking for!!!! Thank you!
***Edited for spelling
I've just begun working with attributes and am very new to the AutoCAD API in general so I was not aware of this property. Although it may seem like minimal knowledge to some, to me it's quite new and something I will definetly remember as I continue
Would be good as well to add one line in your code
AttributeReference attRef = newAttributeReference();
attRef.SetAttributeFromBlock(attDef, blockRef.BlockTransform);
// additional line:
Thanks Hallex, will do!

You had plenty to say regarding our editorial concerns on
the possibility that tax deductions for charity could be capped or
Sheila responded:
"Giving is for giving, not so you will receive something in return. "
Samantha agreed, saying "I donate to whoever needs help, not
how much I will be able to deduct on my taxes."
Cassie countered with "This decision would be a decision of
the worst kind. Technically, this would
be the same as literally taking money away from these charities. It's sad, but true: people won't go above and
beyond with their donations if they can't write it off."
Our editorial on the new Louisville Police Department policy
authorizing police chases only when a violent felony is involved, not for
traffic violations or drug dealing, brought this response from Amany: "I don't
think it was wise to publicly announce this change because it just means
criminals will know they can flee without being chased. Jette
disagreed, saying "This is a good move by the LMPD Chief. Too many
innocent lives have been lost and this will prevent further lost lives."

Maria Cantwell on Government Reform
Democratic Jr Senator (WA)
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Rep. WASSERMAN SCHULTZ (D, FL-20): We, as Members of Congress, have responsibility not just for the institution, but for the staff that work for this institution, and to preserve the facilities that help support this institution. We have endeavored to do that responsibly, and I believe we have accomplished that goal.
Opponent's argument to vote No:Rep. SCALISE (R, LA-1): It's a sad day when someone attempts to cut spending in a bill that grows government by the size of 7%, and it's not allowed to be debated on this House floor. Some of their Members actually used the term "nonsense" and "foolishness" when describing our amendments to cut spending; they call that a delaying tactic. Well, I think Americans all across this country want more of those types of delaying tactics to slow down this runaway train of massive Federal spending. Every dollar we spend from today all the way through the end of this year is borrowed money. We don't have that money. We need to control what we're spending.
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Sen. ORRIN HATCH (R-UT): I am cosponsoring the legislation to provide a House seat for DC and an additional House seat for Utah. Representation and suffrage are so central to the American system of self-government that America's founders warned that limiting suffrage would risk another revolution and could prevent ratification of the Constitution. The Supreme Court held in 1820 that Congress' legislative authority over DC allows taxation of DC. Do opponents of giving DC a House seat believe that DC is suitable for taxation but not for representation?
Opponent's argument to vote No:Sen. JOHN McCAIN (R-AZ): I make a constitutional point of order against this bill on the grounds that it violates article I, section 2, of the Constitution. I appreciate the frustration felt by the residents of DC at the absence of a vote in Congress. According to many experts, DC is not a State, so therefore is not entitled to that representation. Also, one has to raise the obvious question: If DC is entitled to a Representative, why isn't Puerto Rico, which would probably entail 9 or 10 Members of Congress? [With regards to the seat for Utah], this is obviously partisan horse-trading.
Opponents recommend voting NO because:
Sen. BYRD: In 1978, I voted for H.J. Res. 554, that proposed amending the Constitution to provide for representation of D.C. [That amendment passed the Senate but was not ratified by the States]. While I recognize that others believe that the Constitution authorizes the Congress to "exercise exclusive legislation" over D.C., the historical intent of the Founders on this point is unclear. I oppose S.1257, because I doubt that our Nation's Founding Fathers ever intended that the Congress should be able to change the text of the Constitution by passing a simple bill.
Proponents support voting YES because:
Sen. HATCH. There are conservative and liberal advocates on both sides of this issue,and think most people know Utah was not treated fairly after the last census. For those who are so sure this is unconstitutional, [we include an] expedited provision that will get us to the Supreme Court to make an appropriate decision. It will never pass as a constitutional amendment. There are 600,000 people in D.C., never contemplated by the Founders of this country to be without the right to vote. They are the only people in this country who do not have a right to vote for their own representative in the House. This bill would remedy that situation.
Proponents support voting YES because:
Sen. DOLE. I am proposing a commonsense measure to uphold the integrity of Federal elections. My amendment to require voters to show photo identification at the polls would go a long way in minimizing potential for voter fraud. When a fraudulent vote is cast and counted, the vote of a legitimate voter is cancelled. This is wrong, and my amendment would help ensure that one of the hallmarks of our democracy, our free and fair elections, is protected. Opinion polls repeatedly confirm that Americans overwhelmingly support this initiative.
Opponents recommend voting NO because:
Sen. FEINSTEIN. If one would want to suppress the vote in the 2008 election, one would vote for this because this measure goes into effect January 1, 2008. It provides that everybody who votes essentially would have to have a photo ID. If you want to suppress the minority vote, the elderly vote, the poor vote, this is exactly the way to do it. Many of these people do not have driver's licenses. This amendment would cost hundreds of millions of dollars to actually carry out. It goes into effect--surprise--January 1, 2008 [to affect the presidential election]. I urge a "no" vote.
For example, I am a big fan of McDonald's. What about the kids working behind the counter? Would they be considered registered lobbyists because McDonald's has lobbyists? Would I not be able to go to lunch with my longtime friend who owns 12 McDonald's?
Return Politics to the People
At a time when much of the world is emulating American values and institutions, too many Americans have lost confidence in their political system. They are turned off by a partisan debate that often seems to revolve not around opposing philosophies but around contending sets of interest groups. They believe that our current system for financing campaigns gives disproportionate power to wealthy individuals and groups and exerts too much influence over legislative and regulatory outcomes.
The time for piecemeal reform is past. As campaign costs soar at every level, we need to move toward voluntary public financing of all general elections and press broadcasters to donate television time to candidates.
The Internet holds tremendous potential for making campaigns less expensive and more edifying and for engaging Americans directly in electoral politics. We should promote the Internet as a new vehicle for political communication and champion online voting.

Turn Your Old Tees Into a Pillow Chair [Video]
Here's yet another great project that makes use of your old t-shirts–a do-it-yourself pillow chair! This project comes to us from Tiffany Threadgould of RePlayGround and Becky Stern of Craftzine.com. You may remember Becky from a previous post back in April, "Hey, Ladies! Modify Those Shapeless, Unisex Tees Into Something More Flattering."
Check out the embedded video below for a step-by-step walk-through of how you can create your very own pillow chair from a dozen old t-shirts and some spare upholstery foam. Some sewing skills are required for this project, so keep that in mind before cutting up your old t-shirts! For a full list of materials and tools you'll need to complete this project, check out this post on the craftzine blog.

A word from Hawk n' Dove
Hawk was the venerable meeting place where both sides of our brain got together, politically. Since 1969 the arguments ebbed & flowed, and eventually everyone just moved on to drinking and laughing together. The quintessential American "dive bar". The next chapter was a ground up 15 month
renovation under new owners in 2013. 45 years later, we honor the tradition of the original ethos and, even late at night, "dive" to that legacy. Yet we think that the Hawk is ready to move on from "69... make our own mark...honor the past...make it ours. The menu looks to our heritage, and celebrates it with Real Food. Our food comes from farms and ranches that do it old school, like Mother Nature intended. We serve free range birds from Fredricksburg, as well as hormone and antibiotic free beef from Creekstone Farms. Great ingredients like Duroc Pork allow us serve up true American Pub fare that satisfies without the fuss. Luncheon, Supper and Live Bluegrass Brunch on Sunday.

Visited on a recent trip to Seattle. The atmosphere is kind of industrial-ish, basically an open room bordering on a loading dock. As it was a nice day the big doors were open. The room was clean and bright. A pleasant and cute female bartender was very attentive and quick on her feet, despite being in a walking cast due to recent bone spur surgery.
There 6 brews listed, but they were out of the Whiskey Lager (BTW, a must try if you ever see it) so I had a couple of others. The owner(s?) was there playing video football on a large screen. I suspect this would be a pretty decent place to watch a Husky game, if you didn't wan to go to a busy sports bar. They don't serve food, but I imagine you could bring in what you wanted.
Overall, a nice stop if you're doing a Seattle brewery tour. Very good beer and nice folks .

Emerald City occupies two of the loading docks and one of the cold storage rooms of the old Rainier brewery, so it's got quite a bit of character and history to its space.
Emerald is of course still a start-up, and their mission is to become the premiere lager brewery in Seattle. It's a work in progress, literally. On my first visit, they were serving Dottie and a Dry Fly Maple Brown out of a two-tap jockey box on a folding table. There was no seating, and a ton of kegs waiting to ship out. The space is industrial and brightly lit, definitely not a smooth and polished tasting room.
Now there's a few more customers and a few more comforts of a regular tasting room. The kegs are tucked away in the back, and a partially completed but functional bar top with 8 or 9 stools, and a table with six chairs. For a laugh, check out the urinal in the restroom.
The service is friendly, but with only one server and 10-12 people at the time we were there, we had to go up to the bar to receive service.
There were only two taps of Dottie this time, so the selection isn't fantastic, but they're working towards more, with a tap of Honey Pilsener "coming soon."
I'm not aware of any food besides snacky store-bought items.
The value is reasonable, with pints competitively priced.
Emerald is definitely a work in progress. It's fun to see the space change and grow, but until there's more production and a changing beer list, I will only visit occassionally to check on their progress.

2.2/5 rDev -25.9%
A: I had been wanting to visit this place since its opening. I had my first Dottle late in 2010 at the Porterhouse West Seattle. Walked in on a Saturday, up the stairs to an open loading dock, (at first it reminded me a bit of the Schooner E setup minus the tables outside at Schooner and the increased space, visible barrels, ok just the loading dock portion then.. of Schooner E) and there was one person there at the time greeted by one guy and then we sat at the bar where we were greeted by a young college student who maybe just turned 21. Further convo revealed he was literally still in college and he was learning the ropes of the beer world at Emerald City. The vibe was alright. Not overly warming but not overly exciting either.
Q: Well considering they only had one beer, the same beer I can get anywhere in Seattle(Dottie) was average to good. My second time consuming this beer.
S: The server was less than stellar. Nice guy but no concept of service whatsoever. I finished my beer, sat there with an empty glass for 15 minutes, while he looked at me numerous times and never offered me another beer. Instead, he talked and poured himself 2 beers during the time. I tried to close my tab and never even got his nod. So not knowing how much my beer was because he would not pay attention or failed to ask I just put $6 on the bar and walked out. Not even then did he acknolwedge. Terrible service. 3 people at the bar.
S: Umm. Your flagship beer is the only beer you have at your own tasting room? Work in progress or not. If there is any place you should have beers beyond your standard flagship it is your tasting room. Otherwise what am I Coming to the tasting room to taste? I can grab this beer anywhere. Yup, have 2 other beers at least have something else. Poor selection
As far as the vaule I have no clue because the server never even bothered to tell me or acknowledge me after he poured the beer.

The plane truth leads to a career in PR
Shannon Mitchell, Artsci'09, had a strange inspiration for her career. She decided to go into public relations after her boyfriend told her about a stranger he had enjoyed talking with on a plane.
Shannon, an English and Drama major at Queen's, was still trying to find the right career direction when she had a "Eureka! moment" after hearing about the stranger's career and about opportunities in public relations.
"I went on from Queen's and did my public relations certificate at Humber College, and from there completed my two-month internship. Within two weeks I was hired at Hill and Knowlton, one of Canada's largest PR agencies," she says.
Shannon feels her Queen's experience helped prepare her for this career. She gained management experience working at the AMS-run Publishing and Copy Centre, which helped her build a portfolio of professional skills. "Not only do people love that I know how to use a photocopier," she laughs, "but it also really helped me in a lot of job interviews to say that I had the experience of managing a staff of 40."
But her experience acting in Queen's Players has been especially useful.
"You're used to performing under such different and difficult situations. You've got an audience that's so hard to control. And you've got to keep going and know when you're losing them and how to get them back," she explains. "I think that in PR that plays a big part because we're always talking to the media and we want them to talk (positively) about our clients. We've got to be able to learn when they're losing interest and how to get them back."
It's no surprise that Shannon does some "unofficial PR" for her alma mater. Her great memories of her Queen's experience lead her to recommend the University to others.
What made my time at Queen's great was going outside my department and really taking advantage of all the opportunities, like being able to find a job on campus, like all the clubs you can join," she recalls. "It's really nice to be able to meet people outside of your year, outside of your major, and to form a lot of bonds with those people."

Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has refused to address why OG Brian Waters, who is under contract, has not reported to camp.
The media has been left to speculate his future through more untraditional means. The latest tidbit comes from the Boston Globe's Shalize Manza Young, who reports that the team has issued first-round LB Dont'a Hightower Waters' old Ni. 54 jersey.
What does this mean? Perhaps nothing. Waters still has a locker at the Patriots' facility, and it has remained untouched during the course of the offseason. Waters has been a no-show for the Patriots' required OTA and training-camp sessions, but there have been no reports of him being fined.
Hightower, who had been wearing No. 45 in preseason action, received his new digits on Monday, per the report. NFL rules state that linebackers must have uniform numbers of 50 or higher.
Waters is not on the team's active roster currently, having been moved to the "reserve/did not report" list. The Patriots face the Titans on Sept. 9 in the season opener.
Belichick's latest statement on Waters' status, less than a week prior to the team's opener at Tennessee, revealed little more.
"He's not on the roster," Belichick said. "He's either an active player or he's not an active player, and he's not on the roster.
"I don't have any more to add to the situation."

Mt Ripinsky Trail
The trip to the 3690ft summit of Mt Ripinsky offers a sweeping view of the land from Juneau to Skagway.
The trip to the 3690ft summit of Mt Ripinsky offers a sweeping view of the land from Juneau to Skagway.
This climb to a 1760ft summit is considerably easier than the one to Mt Ripinsky, but it still provides good views in all directions, including vistas of Rainbow and Davidson Glaciers. One trail up the mountain begins at a junction 2.2 miles up the Battery Point Trail out of Portage Cove Recreation Site.
This trail begins at Chilkat State Park Campground and is a 6.5-mile(one-way)hike to the point separating Chilkoot and Chilkat Inlets. The trail swings between forest and beaches, and provides excellent views of Davidson Glacier If you have the equipment, this trail can be turned into an excellent overnight hike by setting up camp at the cove east of Seduction Point.

Pomeranian Dukes Castle
Pomeranian Dukes Castle - in the years 1346-1347 duke Barnim III built "The Stone House" and the chapel of St. Otto. The castle was extended under the reign of Pomeranian dukes Boguslaw X and Barnim XI. Under the order of Jan Fryderyk in the years 1571-1582 it was rebuilt in the spirit of Renaissance and took the present shape. In the years 1616-1619 under the reign of Philip II and Francis I the Museum Wing (Mint) was built. It was severely destroyed by the air raids in 1944. At present there exist the Opera in The Castle and the Operetta, cultural institutions, offices: the Speaker's Office, the Registry Office, the Centre of Tourist and Culture Information. On elevations on the eastern wing - the erection plaque of duke Barnim XI from1538, on the northern wing - the plaque of duke Barnim III from 1543. On the Clock Tower there is the astronomical clock from 1693, plaques commemorated to priest Boleslaw Domanski - during the period between the wars the chairman of the Polish Society in Germany and to the Polish king Stanislaw Leszczyriski, who stayed in the castle in 1711. It is recommended to visit the exhibition halls, the exhibition of dukes' sarcophagus-es and connected with the history of the castle the vantage point in the Ring Tower, where there is a copy of the gothic statue of St. Otto.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals - Lipodrene Xtreme - 90 Tablets
Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Lipodrene Xtreme contains Hoodia-Pure brand of hoodia gordonii extract (the most powerful appetite suppressant available without a prescription), Thermo-Rx (Acacia Rigidula), and other key herbal ingredients. Lipodrene Xtreme incorporates manufacturing technology utilized only in advanced pharmaceutical science, which includes a triple-layer construction and spherical bead polymers. These two technologies produce rapid, sustained, and delayed release of the active components, which eliminates the jittery feeling and also the subsequent crash that occurs when using other herbal stimulants. The proprietary Thermo-Rz blend of fat loss activators in Lipodrene Xtreme is so effective that Lipodrene Xtreme yields results superior to ephedra. This makes Lipodrene Xtreme the new leader for advanced appetite control and metabolic, fat-burning stimulation. For enhanced fat loss, Lipodrene can be used effectively in conjunction with Hoodia-Pure for added appetite suppression and ThyroZene, which promotes natural thyroid function.
Lipodrene Xtreme is just what the names says it is - Extreme Lipodrene. You take Lipodrene and then tweak it with some bad ass tablet technology so that it blasts you faster and lasts longer. It's off-the-chain Lipodrene! Lipodrene Xtreme is a Hi-Tech weight loss and energy enhancement supplement designed to quench the "hard to please" dieter's thirst! Lipodrene Xtreme includes triple-layer construction and spherical bead polymers (creating the tablet's colorful, speckled appearance). These two technologies are why Lipodrene Xtreme provides such an exceptionally smooth, long-lasting, no-crash stimulant feeling. The outer layer of the Lipodrene Xtreme tablet contains Explotab technology- for immediate burst of the active ingredients, producing rapid onset of energy! The middle layer then continues to release stimulants and other weight loss components in a delayed release pattern. Last, but certainly no least, the inner layer releases a sustained dose of active ingredients into the bloodstream for long-lasting energy and a continued weight loss effect for several hours. Above and beyond this triple-layer construction, Lipodrene Xtreme incorporates spherical bead polymers within all three of its layers to further induce its extended delivery properties. When you take Lipodrene Xtreme, be ready from the get-go to get slammed with an "eyes wide open" blast of energy that will take you from 0 to 60 just like that! Lipodrene Xtreme will then help you lose weight and feel great all day long.

Great product - great service
This was my third purchase from Helmet City. The Scorpion EXO-250 was exactly what I had hoped. I received my helmet the next day and will recommend this purchase to friends. I will be a repeat customer.
Reviewer: Sal (Locust Grove, VA) 3.25.2013
Great helmet for the money
This helmet is made with typical Scorpion quality but just open face. The helmet is reasonably quiet for an open face helmet and the face shield is very fog resistant. very versatile to use with or without shield and with a visor. It is headset ready with speaker pockets built into the liner. Very happy with the helmet. Also, sizing very accurate with head measurement.
Reviewer: Curtis Johnson (Albany, Ga.) 9.20.2012
The helmet (X-large)
I love the helmet, but it is just a little for a X large. I have always worn X large helmets and they fit me perfectly, but this one is just a little snug. Thanks

A receipt from a NYC restaurant and pictures from a wardrobe fitting at a New York hotel are believable evidence. And now theres Travoltas flight records.

Boston College finished in the top 10 worst bowl performances for both total offense and rushing yards. But the Eagles weren't the only ACC teams to struggle in this year's bowl games.
Boston College traveled well to this year's Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl in San Francisco, all things considered. The school ended up selling 6,000 of its 8,000 ticket allotment.
Thoughts on the Boston College offensive performance in Sunday's Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl loss to Nevada.
Where does Boston College go from here, after a listless offensive performance in a 20-13 loss to Nevada in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl>
Rumors are that Boston College offensive coordinator Gary Tranquill will retire this week. Tranquill will be replaced by current BC wide receivers coach Ryan Day.
The offensive side of the ball has been struggling. They've been fighting to find their quarterback. It resonated through the season. The second half of the year, they won some ball games and got back into position to get back into a bowl. But the bottom line is, the young freshman [quarterback Chase Rettig] started a bunch of games, they had a whole month to get ready for this game, and there was still no improvement. So that's frustrating. I'm sure it's frustrating for them, but it's frustrating as a fan of Boston College for them to not move the ball on offense.Doug Flutie sits down with Dr. Saturday and answers a question about BC's rough offensive performance last night (Dr. Saturday)

Caption Diss: Alicia Keys Eyes Down Mr. Showwwwwtimeee
Tuesday, Sep 20, 2011 12:10AM
For Caption Diss, the good ol' folks at SOHH are back at it giving y'all, my loyal doggies, a chance to capture the final word(s). The "Best We've Ever Read" headline gets to hold down that Cap Diss honor for a week. Who run it?
[Editor's Note: The views of this column do not necessarily reflect those of SOHH.com]
Man, doggies, I really don't get too involved in the whole relationship side of things but with the whole Wiz Khalifa/Amber Rose recent marriage rumors and that Ice-T and Coco Cap Diss from a couple weeks ago, I can't help it! LOL! This week continues the couples-themed movement. Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz? SMH. Even Kat Stacks proved some doggies will go to drastic measures in pursuit of the kitty kat and I can't help but think Swizzy is no different. In his defense though, that Christina Elizabeth chick looks SMOKING! Y'all need to check her out in your own time. In the mean time, what do y'all think is going on right here? Hhmmmmm.................???
LOL @INCREDABUCKS!!!!!! Doggy, you might officially be the crown holder in here! You stay winning like them Lakers! LOL. Natalie Nunn gave doggies a lot to work with and doggy capitalized off that! LOL! Use 'swallowing' as a metaphor or take it directly, b/c Nunn has tried and failed with the fame factor. Wiz Khalifa? Yung Berg? LOL! What's next? Chet Haze? LOL!!!!!!!! Congrats @INCREDABUCKS, you won that and had a doggy rolling! LOL!!!!!!!
Aight doggies, FYI, my Jets are 2-0 but on a more serious note, y'all know how we get down in here! Think 'em, diss 'em, ink 'em and submit 'em into the comments section by Monday, September 26th!

It's rarely a good idea to indulge dogs with cookies and cakes—unless those cookies and cakes are made specifically for them. That's exactly the case at The Paws of Nature, where owner Kirsten bakes homemade treats for pups. Kirsten and her friend, Michele, had the idea to create a neighborhood pet store with a twist. Today, the twist they envisioned comes in several forms, such as community education programs, conveniently designed self-serve washing stations, and a stock of healthier food choices for pets—including, of course, baked goodies.
Bridgewater Veterinary Hospital is a state-of-the-art, spacious health and wellness center with a staff of four veterinarians and 15 team members whose level of dedication to their fuzzy clients has earned the hospital an accreditation from the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA).

The hospital offers everything from healthcare and dental care to grooming and chiropractic services to keep pets as spry and happy as they can be. Overnight boarding is available for dogs whose owners are out of town and cats that just need to finish their novels without any distractions.

Mike Kelly had a sore back, not to mention torn-down shower curtains, a decimated bathroom, and clogged drains, all courtesy of his 160-pound newfoundland, Gordo. He decided to start a self-service dog-wash business, not simply for his own sake but for other sore, slobber-riddled dog owners as well.
And so In n Out Self Serve Dog Wash was born. There, pet owners find a series of green-walled semiprivate stations that house walkup tubs for a variety of dog sizes, including a couple of extra-large sizes to accommodate massive pups or several small dogs that became stuck together after an ill-fated jelly-sandwich incident. Equipped with washing hoses and shampoos, dog owners can disrupt muddy paws and fur before rinsing and styling their pooch's pompadour with a high-velocity, no-heat blow dryer. Or they can seek out the help of the shop's professional grooming services, which include nail trimming, ear cleaning, and packages with breed-standard trims.
VIPuppy Spa treats canines to human-grade comfort and amenities. During daycare, staffers separate dogs into groups based on age, size, and disposition for outdoor playtime, then supervise the play area to ensure none of the pups gets cheated out of his or her poker winnings. After a full day of play, dogs go home with their owners or drift off to sleep in a climate-controlled room as soothing music plays. The facility stays open 24 hours a day every day of the year, so owners can find a happy home for their dogs even during holidays or mass feline revolutions.
VIPuppy also beautifies furry friends with grooming services ranging from a hydro-massaging bath and coat conditioning to nail trimming and tooth brushing. Some of the services even deliver the pampering you might expect at a day spa—aromatherapy shampoos, facial scrubs, and applications of OPI's special dogs-only nail product, Pawlish. Cats tired of barking for attention can also benefit from VIPuppy's grooming services; a cat groomer with 30 years of experience trims coats and clips nails for felines as well.

A week or two ago, I managed to snag an elusive invite to the Google Voice telephony service. Google acquired the developer, GrandCentral, two years ago, and the service has been in beta ever since. The service allows you to choose a phone number and have it ring all of your phones at once; you can also screen callers as they leave voicemail, choose not to have certain phones ring during certain times (such as the weekend), and even have recordings of your voicemails sent to your e-mail, along with machine transcriptions.
It's easy to see why an iPhone-native Google Voice application would have its appeal. My iPhone, after all, is the only phone I have: both work and personal calls come to that number, so it would be nice to have a little more control over managing those calls. Thus, the news that Apple has removed and rejected Google Voice applications causes me no end of consternation.

The first shoe to drop was the removal of Sean Kovacs's GV Mobile, a third-party app that allowed Google Voice subscribers to not only dial numbers using the iPhone's address book, but also send SMS messages, play back voice mails, and even make cheap international calls.
Clearly, this caused someone at Apple no end of discomfiture, for Kovacs said on his blog that he received a call from the company informing him that the program was being removed for the ever-vague "duplication of features." Kovacs also claimed on his Twitter account that the app had initially been personally approved by Apple senior vice president Phil Schiller. Kovacs has since announced that he'll be releasing GV Mobile for free via Cydia for those who have jailbroken their iPhones.
Other Google Voice programs such as GVdialer and VoiceCentral were likewise pulled; VoiceCentral's developers said on their blog that they were trying to reach a resolution with Apple.
Nor are the third-party developers alone. Earlier this month, Google released Google Voice programs for both the BlackBerry and Android platforms, but an iPhone app was notably absent. In a statement to tech blog TechCrunch, a Google spokesperson said that the company had submitted an application to the App Store several weeks ago, but that it had been rejected by Apple.
