To say that his latest acting assignment requires Jefferson Mays to wear many hats would be clichéd, but also apt. The Tony Award-winning star of I Am My Own Wife and more recently Gore Vidal's The Best Man is a self-described "hat fetishist." Being cast in eight stylized roles in the musical A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder gave Mays the opportunity to indulge that particular mania with a vengeance.
When he showed up at rehearsals for a workshop of the musical at Hartford Stage, Mays arrived with bags full of hats — bowlers, taupe silk hats, tweed cloth cap, even a topper owned by his wife that would be transformed into a beekeeper's hat.
Monty Navarro (played by Ken Barnett), an illegitimate heir who is ninth in line to the D'Ysquith earldom, sets his sights on improving his position and targets the eight D'Ysquiths ahead of him. Film mavens may recognize Gentlemen's Guide from the 1949 film "Kind Hearts and Coronets," which — like Gentleman's Guide was also inspired by the Roy Harniman novel "Israel Rank." In that film, Alec Guinness played eight roles, but Guinness had days of shooting and multiple takes.
Mays has two and a half hours. Bring on the hats.Continued...

Internal Medicine Home
Annual Report 2012-2013
Amy O'Brien-Ladner, MD
Acting Chair
Department of Internal Medicine
Welcome to the Department of Internal Medicine at the University
of Kansas Medical Center. Our department strives to achieve
excellence in its three-fold mission of teaching, research and patient
care. We provide outstanding clinical service to our patients
in the community, exceptional medical education for medical students,
residents, and other health professionals, and are committed to
innovative research to expand the frontiers of biomedical knowledge.
In order to accomplish this lofty mission, we focus on five major
Ultimately, we all work in medicine, whether through patient care,
education, or research to help save our patients. It is, at
once, both our calling and our greatest challenge.
In caring for our patients and in pursuing research and teaching,
we must act in a way that conveys our spirit of cooperation and
our dedication to reason. We must do the right thing to serve
as an example to our colleagues around us and especially to our
patients and to our learners.
Separating ourselves from our colleagues who have dedicated themselves
to patient care only, in an academic medical center we must constantly
be striving to seek answers to questions that are yet unanswered. Our
curiosity helps define this difference and it is our quest to respond
to this curiosity that makes academic medicine our career.
In our department, we emphasize that we are here to build bridges
and not silos. Our spirit of collegiality and collaboration
as opposed to confrontation is critical to our success. By
building bridges to the various research sciences and institutes
in our university and in our community, we make ourselves stronger.
Finally, as I emphasized to the residents and our other learners
almost everyday, you have to love what you do and you have to do
what you love. If you do those things, then it makes your
job more than a job. Our department works hard and we are
proud of our people and our accomplishments. And while we
work hard, we also have fun. It is this spirit that helps
build a positive environment in which we define success not only
in what we accomplish individually but how far we go as a team.
Our department has come a long way over the years. Our last
decade has seen phenomenal growth that has mirrored the clinical
excellence of our hospital as it has risen to receive lofty awards
for the delivery of patient care, patient satisfaction, its advanced
programs in cardiology and cancer, and the dedication of quality
has resulted into being recognized by the UHC as one of the top
five academic medical centers for patient care in this country.
Our educational programs strive to achieve both innovation and
excellence. This has been reflected in the growth of our residency
program over the last eight years from an average of 10 residents
a year to over 20. Our fellowships and our residency program,
all in excellent standing with the ACGME, reflect our commitment
to excellence.
Our research mission, for the first time in decades, is ripe for
growth. Recently, we have been the beneficiaries of a new
affiliation agreement put up between our hospital and the university
as well as increased support for our clinical mission which has
allowed our clinical engine to stand on its own. Indeed, as
our dean has said, while research and education are most important
missions, our clinical engine drives them both. By fully funding
our clinical enterprise from our clinical work, we have unburdened
our educational and research endeavors so that they may thrive and
Our university in their endowment has recently stepped up to help
fund the research mission in our department. We are now in
a rapid period of growth for research and have assured that each
division has excellence in its tripartite mission of patient care,
education and research.
I welcome you to explore our department on these Web pages. I
think you will find a compelling and fascinating story of achievement
and dedication. If you ever have any questions or comments,
please do not hesitate to contact me.
Steven W. Stites, M.D.
Peter T. Bohan Professor and Chair of Internal Medicine
To advance the power of medicine by providing a stimulating, supportive
climate where faculty, scientists, trainees and support staff strive
for excellence and collaborate freely to achieve shared goals.

Next steps for the Locker Project
Since we started this journey, the Locker Project and Singly have progressed side-by-side, with Singly as the hosted experience that sponsors the Locker Project.
After opening Singly's Locker hosting to developers and getting lots of feedback on all of the possibilities that a hosted Locker could enable, the resounding theme was that developers want to use the API first and foremost. Based on that, the Singly team has been working on an effort to bolster the API aspects of the codebase so that it can support apps at a large scale. There's been excellent progress in creating a cross-platform, cross-service API that provides merged, normalized and de-duplicated data on which apps can be built.
So now there is the question of how best to support and improve the open-source Locker Project, since it encompasses more than just an API. It's an effort everyone in this community cares deeply about and has helped create a shared vision for, so we're calling upon you to help decide what the most powerful direction for the Locker Project should be.
Please help take the time to fill out this survey, and most importantly, thank you all for your ongoing support and hard work!

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- In a game where its opponent led the entire game, the Pittsburg State women's basketball team never quit fighting. Despite a deficit as high as 16 in the second half, the team was able to narrow the gap to five in the game's waning minutes before falling, 83-76 to Northwest Missouri in the MIAA Tournament semifinals.
The Gorillas trailed by a game-high 16 points with 14:29 to go in the game. In the next two minutes, they were able to cut the lead to 10, but despite Northwest having answer to most any surge Pitt State would offer, the team was able to cut the lead to single digits for the first time since 4:20 mark in the first half on a Drew Roberts jumper. Pitt State cut the lead to six with a Brooke Conley three, with 5:54 remaining, to keep the Gorillas and their fans in the game.
The Bearcats built back an 11-point lead, but the Gorillas would still not go away, taking the deficit back to only seven points. Northwest had its last double digit lead with 2:24 remaining. A 7-2 Gorilla run, capped by a Kylee Baldetti jumper in the paint put Pitt State down by only 5 with 27 seconds on the clock. Pitt State needed to foul to get the ball back and the Bearcats were able to sink their free throws, giving them the win and the chance to play for the tournament title.
Conley came off the bench to lead the Gorillas with 17 points. She score 14 of her 17 points in the second half. She and Alexa Bordewick each hit three of the team's 10 three-point shots on the night. Bordewick finished the game with 11 points. Laura Glenn scored 12 in her final game as a Gorilla and Roberts added 10.
All five of Northwest's starters scored in double figures led by Shelly Martin with a game-high 22. Gabby Curtis added 18, while Gentry Dietz, Kyla Roehrig and Abby Henry each had 13.
Pitt State finishes the 2010-11 season with a 16-12 overall record. The Gorillas graduate four seniors, Baldetti, Glenn, Marissa Poppe and Bailey Waugh.

LEXINGTON, Ky (9/18/2013)—According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 43.8 million people smoke cigarettes in the United States.

According to the CDC, smoking cigarettes is the leading preventable cause of death, and if that's not a big enough incentive to for you to stop today, here are some more.
-You'll be more attractive. Your breath will be fresher, your fingers and teeth will look cleaner, your hair and clothes will smell better, and your skin will look younger.
-You can be in the best shape of your life. Your circulation, lung capacity, heartbeat, and stamina will improve
-You can save money and buy something that you've always wanted to buy before! Cigarettes are a very expensive habit.
-You can protect the health of those people that you care about around you.
The Lexington-Fayette County Health Department provides classes for those interested in quitting smoking. It isn't easy, but it is a habit that is worth breaking. The Tobacco Cessation Education and Support is a 12-week Cooper-Clayton class that will provide you with methods and support to reach your goal. which is a proven system with excellent results, even for heavy smokers.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
A fine route which packs in a burly crux and a thought-provoking upper section. Either struggle through the small-but-scratchy pine tree (which used not to exist) up a small, left-facing dihedral, or start further left and traverse right, above the small tree, until you are situated under the hand-crack. Place gear in the finger crack just left. Muscle up into the crack. Teeter onto easier terrain above, and get established on a rest ledge on the arete itself. From here, work elegantly upwards with discontinuous cracks.
This climb basically follows the arete just left of the big roof. The crux is the short left-angling hand crack immediately left of the arete.
Good wire before crux. The crux hand crack takes a perfect hand-size cam or two, but it sure is strenuous to place. Once on the upper section, who knows? I don't remember from 20 years ago, and all I did this time around was unclip bolts. There are wires and small cams to be placed.

Here's a key matchup to watch in Sunday's Vikings-Cardinals game.
Vikings' front seven vs. Cardinals RB Beanie Wells
After getting off to a slow start in his career, Beanie Wells has come into his own this season. In three starts, he has 321 yards and five touchdowns, including 138 yards and 3 TDs last week against a good Giants defense. He's been running with power and getting to the second-level. His work in the redzone has been strong as well, just ask Giants CB Corey Webster, who was trucked on a Wells touchdown.
This week, Wells faces his stiffest test this season, as the Vikings are fifth in the league at stopping the run, holding opposing teams to 76.2 yards-per-game. The front seven is a big reason why.
E.J. Henderson attacks downhill and fills the gaps with strong tackles. Chad Greenway can flow sideline-to-sideline and is also a sure tackler. With Kevin Williams back from suspension, it's very hard for the offensive line to get movement at the line of scrimmage and get the guards or center into the second-level.
Even with that, expect the Cardinals to pound away with Wells. They need to slow the pass rush to take pressure off of Kevin Kolb. Plus, with Wells' size, he could wear down a defense with every carry he takes, creating opportunities for lapses and big runs in the fourth quarter.
In a matchup of two strengths, the winner between the two will go a long way to deciding the outcome of the game.

- Hamilton gets new contacts
- Napoli hoping for rehab stint next week
- Ogando prepared for the heat
- Worth noting
ARLINGTON -- Rangers general manager Jon Daniels has left the country. He is spending time scouting in Japan, and one of the pitchers he is watching is Yu Darvish.
Darvish is a right-hander who can be a free agent and jump to the United States this winter. The Rangers, who were aggressive in their pursuit of Daisuke Matsuzaka in 2006, are expected to be one of the teams interested in Darvish.
Rangers pitcher Colby Lewis faced Darvish during his two years in Japan, and said he thought Darvish can make the jump to the United States.
"He's got great stuff and he keeps the ball in the zone," Lewis said. "When I saw him he was 93-95 [mph], he had four pitches, and he was throwing them for strikes. Successful guys are the ones that do that. He doesn't walk many guys, and he has strikeout stuff."
Darvish, who turns 25 in August, is currently 8-2 with a 1.39 ERA in 10 starts for the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters. Coming into the season, he had a career record of 58-22 with a 1.81 ERA in 98 starts and two relief appearances over four seasons. He had 40 complete games while averaging 6.1 hits, 2.1 walks and 9.2 strikeouts per nine innings.
"Anybody who can throw all their pitches for strikes can pitch in the big leagues," Lewis said. "That's what it takes."
The Rangers have grown to be one of the most aggressive teams in the international free agent market, and they signed reliever Yoshinori Tateyama this offseason. He spent 12 seasons with the Fighters, including four as a teammate of Darvish.
Hamilton gets new contacts
ARLINGTON -- Josh Hamilton took batting practice on Friday wearing contact lenses. The new lenses gave a red tint to his eyes, and Hamilton is hoping they will help reduce the brightness that causes him some problems during day games.
"I have never worn contact lenses in my life, but I would like to be able to see the ball in the daylight," Hamilton said. "I'm trying every means possible, because I care and I want to be out there and I don't want to stink during the day."
Hamilton went into Friday night's game against the Mets hitting .376 with a .415 on-base percentage and a .661 slugging percentage at night. He was hitting .122 with a .246 on-base percentage and a .184 slugging percentage during day games.
Last year, during his MVP season, he hit .384 with a .688 slugging percentage at night and .286 with a .474 slugging percentage during the day.
"I talked to the medical staff and told them to figure out something that would help me," Hamilton said.
The Rangers have day games on both Saturday and Sunday against the Mets. Hamilton is expected to start in both games. He said after batting practice Friday that the contact lenses do seem to help, and he will try them on Saturday.
Napoli hoping for rehab stint next week
ARLINGTON -- Mike Napoli, who is sidelined with a strained left oblique muscle in his rib cage, began swinging with a regular bat on Friday. He took swings off a tee and against soft-toss pitching. He is hoping to take full batting practice by Sunday and go out on a medical rehabilitation assignment early next week.
"I feel good," said Napoli, who has been sidelined for two weeks and is eligible to come off the disabled list on Tuesday. "I don't feel it at all."
Rangers manager Ron Washington said he would like to see Napoli get at least 20 at-bats in the Minors before he is ready to return. He also wants to make sure Napoli is ready to catch nine innings before he is activated off the disabled list.
Rangers pitchers have a 2.73 ERA when Napoli is behind the plate. That's the lowest ERA for any catcher with at least 20 games caught in the American League.
Ogando prepared for the heat
ARLINGTON -- Rangers pitcher Alexi Ogando is from the tropical Dominican Republic, and he has spent a year pitching in Texas. He understands pitching in the heat. He just wasn't prepared for the humidity last Sunday in Atlanta."Atlanta was more humid, believe me," Ogando said. "I just didn't drink enough liquids."
Ogando will pitch on Saturday afternoon against the Mets, and it will be his first start since getting dehydrated during his five-inning, 105-pitch outing against the Braves.
"I'll be ready," Ogando said. "You never know what's going to happen to me on the mound, but what happened to me in Atlanta is not going to happen tomorrow."
Catcher Yorvit Torrealba also got dehydrated on Sunday in Atlanta. He will be behind the plate on Saturday, but manager Ron Washington said Taylor Teagarden will catch on Sunday.
Worth noting
The Rangers are promoting Class A All-Star pitcher Joe Wieland to Double-A Frisco. He will start on Monday night.
Pitcher Eric Hurley, who was on medical rehabilitation assignment, was activated off the disabled list on Friday and optioned to Triple-A Round Rock. It's essentially a paperwork move. Hurley had been sidelined for two months with a concussion after getting hit by a line drive, and the Rangers had put him on the 60-day disabled list to make room on their 40-man roster. They are back to having a full 40-man roster.
Ian Kinsler, after a stolen base on Wednesday night, went into the Mets series with 121 career stolen bases in 141 attempts. That is a success rate of 85.8 percent, the second-best percentage among active players with at least 120 attempts. Carlos Beltran has the highest at 88.2 percent.
Outfielder Leonys Martin (back) has begun a medical rehabilitation assignment with the Arizona Rookie League Rangers.

October 28, 2003
Omega, Ga.--- Every morning you see a man wearing shorts, a hat and walking non-stop, with ski poles, always in a hurry, as if going to a fire. He's Fred Tucker, a veteran coach with old beliefs about young people. Most people, even grownups, call him Coach Tucker.
"The world needs more old people to work and play with young people because of their experiences," says Coach Tucker with several young people crowding around him as he walks.
"Sometimes, us old folks can plant some seeds of knowledge or wisdom, or a pat on the back, or an atta boy that sometimes these kids don't get at home," says Tucker.
Coach Tucker is 80 years young who walks eight miles a day during the summer, because it's so hot, and just 10 miles a day during the rest of the year. He is a walking role model for the benefits of exercise. "I have some friends who were buried when they were 70 years old, but they really died when they were 60," says Coach Tucker who believes exercise improves a person's quality of life, regardless of age.
You will see him following a group of ten- and 11-year olds around a sandy track at Omega Elementary School in Tift County. He purposely walks behind them, frequently shouting, "I'm taking a short cut. I'm taking a short cut." He doesn't.
They walk a mile, but he will do ten times that during the Fall. Coach Fred Tucker teaches physical education part-time in the Tift County School System, but they get him full time – a bargain for the students and the school system. "I started at 6:30 yesterday morning and got home at 6:30 that night," says Coach Tucker with a smile.
Besides teaching PE, he still coaches football, the offensive coordinator for the seventh grade Blue Devil football team. He prefers the younger athletes. He talks to the offensive players before practice about their last game, where he demands their full attention.
"Son, you are not looking at me," he says to one of the 20 or so players whose eyes drifted. He carries a small book with notes from their last game to remind him of what plays need extra work. "I'll buy that," he shouts when the players run a play to his liking.
Soon, Coach Tucker brings out new plays he designed. "Drew these up today, fresh off the skillet," he says holding several file folders with plays drawn on one side.
Fred Tucker has coached for 55 years, and hundreds of players. "I've beaten the best and have been beaten by the worst," says Tucker with a smile. His seventh-grade Blue Devils have quite an opponent to deal with in the following week. "This is the toughest football game of the season," says Coach Tucker.
His scouting report shows a big running back weighing 190 pounds needs extra attention. "They've got a full back over there who goes bear hunting with a switch," says Coach Tucker. Only two teams can make the play-offs, but three teams want to go. One team won't make it, but Coach Tucker wants his Blue Devils in the play-offs, the first time in five years.
On game day, Coach Tucker, with his trademark shorts, hat and walking shoes, takes his place, kneeling down on the sidelines analyzing every play. His mind, much like a slow motion camera, records every move of the offensive and defensive players. He occasionally jumps up like a coach in his 20s and shouts, "Who's the tackle on the other side? Come late," asks Coach Tucker. "Wildman,"another coach answers.
"They are beating him to death," says Coach Tucker. The Blue Devils have a devil of a time with Coffee County's offense. At half time, his team is behind by six points. In the locker room, his eyes like lasers looking at every player, offers a ray of hope, telling them the big player for Coffee County has gotten tired.
"They pulled him out for five or six plays. He's the one who is beating you," he says. His team has two quarters to make a come back, but recent history repeats itself. Coffee County's offense racks up more points as it did during the first half. The seventh grade team tries, but to no avail.
Coffee County wins by a score of 20 to 6. Immediately after they shake hands with the winning team, they meet under the northern goal post where Coach Tucker becomes a life coach. "A good man is a fellow who has the ability to get up after getting his butt kicked, like we got kicked today," says Tucker.
He seems concerned about the players giving up, abandoning the team before the season officially ends, and before a possible playoff game. "Fellows, let me tell you something. I don't want a-half dozen absentees tomorrow. You understand," asks Coach Tucker.
"Yes, sir," the hot, dirty, sweaty players say in unison. "I want you out there full speed and ready to go," says Tucker about the next day's practice.
But he has more to say, and puts the loss, the only one this season, into perspective. "The world is not coming to an end. The sun is going to rise tomorrow. You are going to grow up as big, strong men. I'm going to go home tonight and enjoy life," he says. He will.
What makes an 80 year old man coach for 55 years and loves being around young people? "I never had a chance to be a kid. I was a grown man at six years old, trying to help my family make a living during the Depression," says Coach Tucker.
Tomorrow, he will be with young people again trying to have a childhood he never had, walking with his ski poles behind dozens of children around a dirt track occasionally shouting, "I'm taking a short cut. I'm taking a short cut," that he never takes.
Coach Tucker's team won their last regular season game, making the playoffs and will tackle the Coffee County team one more time Wednesday October 29, for the championship.

This question already has an answer here:
A common expression you hear is "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail". It appears on Wikipedia as the law of the instrument.
It also manifests in IT, with developers, that, once they learned something, they use it... everywhere.
But how to truly avoid this if all you know of is a hammer at some point ?

Dick's Sporting Goods has announced a FREE baseline concussion screening program called PACE (Protecting Athletes through Concussion Education). Dick's is providing FREE access to ImPACT, the most widely used and independently verified neurocognitive evaluation system, at www.impacttest.com.
The ImPACT evaluation begins with a 20-minute baseline test, administered pre-season. If a concussion is suspected later, a post-injury test is administered by trained clinicians to determine when or whether it is appropriate for the athlete to return to play.
Youth Elite Soccer encourages all of our partner clubs and their players to sign up for free baseline testing through Dick's free PACE program.
And also to seek greater understanding of how to prevent concussions in soccer.
Ashley Goodsell, one of our outstanding female coaches at YES, points to a surprising 2007 study showing that women's soccer leads all other college sports - even college football - in terms of the number of concussions recorded per exposure.
The most frequent causes of concussion, according to the study, were headers and contact with the ground. And while the study also shows concussion regularity among boys that play soccer, it points out that girls are at greater risk for concussions because they have a smaller head-to-ball ratio and weaker necks than boys.
Ashley experienced five concussions in her high school career: four playing soccer, one playing softball. As a result, she knows the importance of teaching young players proper header technique to discourage concussions. And the importance of common-sense:
"Concussion-free for 6 years, I am still cautious with my head! Listen to your mothers, girls! Wear a helmet when you ride your bike, snowboard or ski, (even if it doesn't look that cool), and check out the head gear (photo, above right)! It's trending..."

Sheriff Donnie Craig is proud to introduce the S.T.O.P.P.E.D. (Sheriff Telling Our Parents and Promoting Educated Drivers) program to our community. This is a parental notification system developed by the Pickens Sheriff's Office that is designed to reduce the number of young drivers involved in motor vehicle accidents.
S.T.O.P.P.E.D. is designed for parents of teen drivers that are under the age of 18 and it is a voluntary program.
"Your teenager may borrow the car, but as parents we hold the key to their future."
How Does S.T.O.P.P.E.D. Work?
Parents voluntarily register any motor vehicle that will be operated by a driver under the age of 18 with the Pickens Sheriff's Office. An identification decal is issued and affixed to the rear window of each registered vehicle.
If the vehicle is stopped for any reason by the Pickens Sheriff's Office, the Deputy will complete a notification card providing the time and location of stop, driver's name and names of passengers, the reason for the stop and whether any citations were issued. Notification will then be made on the following business day by telephone and a copy of the card completed by the Deputy.

Dear Readers,
In this last column of 2013, I just want to share some things with you. Looking back on the year, I am reminded of how much we have come though. Some things were devastating and some things were just down, right wonderful!
I learned a lot this year, like really coming to know that none of us is free from sorrow and disappointments. It's just a part of life and who we are. And that is OK with me, because the pain and the disappointments have helped me to grow. I am growing because I have learned to see the blessings in the thing that have happened to me — things I couldn't have changed anyway.
I learned, all over again, the blessing of forgiveness. And while it is not always easy to forgive, I have learned to do it anyway. And you know something? I reap huge blessings for being a forgiving soul. When I was young, I used to say that I wouldn't hold bitterness and hate in my heart because they would only make me old and ugly.
Well, I have lived long enough to be old. Couldn't stop the aging hand. But I could keep myself from becoming ugly. By keeping my heart forgiving, cheerful and loving, I can always be beautiful. What's on the inside of a person radiates to the outside. That's the kind of beauty that shines from inside. And that means we can all be beautiful.
And again, I learned, that friendships, old and new, are so precious. I rediscovered this year, just how precious they are when my son Rick, died. My friends came from all over — New York, Georgia, right here at home and from all parts of Florida, just to hug and comfort me. Old friends, whom I hadn't been in contact with very much over the past years, hovered around me like a mother hen, comforting and protecting her own. I learned again how great it is to have good neighbors, who have become my surrogate family.
I learned, too, to see the joy in the little things. My little great-grandsons Jaylen and Tavaris, taught me that lesson. Their little antics and stories keep me smiling, even when I want to cry.
Some years ago, I was told that I was going blind. So I daily thank the Lord for letting me see the butterflies that flutter around the plants in my yard. I've learned to be more thankful for that.
Everyday this year, something has happened to me to help me to know what it means to have faith in God; to have a wonderful spiritual father, Bishop Walter H. Richardson, who really does care for the souls that God has put in his charge; to have a wonderful and caring church family that is always praying for me and for my well being. It is through Bishop Richardson's teachings that I have learned to be thankful even in the midst of pain and sorrow. And to know that I have my angels with me always, protecting me and looking after me.
As we go about our daily life, it is so easy to forget the blessings that are bestowed on us. Events and issues will sometime blot out the goodness that often surrounds us.
In a few days, God wiling, we will be in a new year, with new problems and challenges to overcome. The most useful thing I have learned this year is to let go of the things that I can't change, to change the things I can and to place the things I can't change in the hands of the Lord. And then, move on.
With that, dear readers, have a wonderful and blessed New Year!

(Photos and collage by Adam L. Turner.) The Oakland Bay Area Chapter of Links, Inc. sponsored this year's 56th Cotillion, Dec. 22 at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis Hotel, featuring 20 debutantes and their escorts who made their debuts to nearly 800 family members and guests at this gala holiday ball, which is now a Bay Area tradition. The ceremony was an elegant and festive rite of passage for these selected, highly accomplished, young high school seniors and several juniors marking a transition from adolescence to young adulthood. The event recognizes these high school students for their outstanding academic achievements, community service and leadership skills. The theme of this year's Cotillion was An Affair to Remember. Each debutante was presented separately first by her father or guardian and then by her escort. This was followed by a series of intricate and classic ballroom dances performed by debutantes and escorts. Throughout a three-month period beginning in September, the debutantes and escorts participated in workshops on college planning, career options, self-esteem, etiquette, financial literacy and effective communication skills. They also participated in a community service project, preparing and providing Thanksgiving bags of groceries for 50 families at Lafayette Elementary School in Oakland. The Oakland Chapter of Links adopted Lafayette Elementary several years ago, and each year the chapter provides extracurricular programs for students and a program for grandparents who are raising their grandchildren. The funds raised from the Cotillion will support programming at Lafayette Elementary, the OBAL Celebration of Excellence Book and Scholarship Program, which will be held in April, as well as grants to community service organizations. This year's co-chairpersons for the Cotillion were Michelle Davenport and Valarie Kelly. The president of the Oakland Bay Area Chapter of Links, Inc. is Felicia Stuckey-Smith.

The LASIK Procedure:
A Complete Guide
LASIK, or "laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis," is the most commonly performed laser eye surgery to treat myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism.
Like other types of refractive surgery, the LASIK procedure reshapes the cornea to enable light entering the eye to be properly focused onto the retina for clearer vision.
In most cases, laser eye surgery is pain-free and completed within 15 minutes for both eyes. The results improved vision without eyeglasses or contact lenses can usually be seen in as little as 24 hours.
A number of vision correction surgeries are available, such as PRK and LASEK laser eye surgery and phakic IOL surgery.
Your eye doctor will determine if laser eye surgery is suitable for your condition and, if so, which technique is best.
How is LASIK Surgery Performed?
First, your eye surgeon uses either a mechanical surgical tool called a microkeratome or a femtosecond laser to create a thin, circular "flap" in the cornea.
The surgeon then folds back the hinged flap to access the underlying cornea (called the stroma) and removes some corneal tissue using an excimer laser.
This highly specialized laser uses a cool ultraviolet light beam to remove ("ablate") microscopic amounts of tissue from the cornea to reshape it, refocusing light entering the eye for improved vision.
For nearsighted people, the goal is to flatten the cornea; with farsighted people, a steeper cornea is desired.
Excimer lasers also can correct astigmatism by smoothing an irregular cornea into a more normal shape. It is a misconception that LASIK cannot treat astigmatism.

- Learn about iLASIK advanced laser vision correction
- This useful, one-stop guide takes you through the LASIK experience before, during and after
- Still afraid of Lasik? This new interactive quiz separates fact from fiction
After the laser reshapes the cornea, the flap is then laid back in place, covering the area where the corneal tissue was removed. Then the cornea is allowed to heal naturally.
Laser eye surgery requires only topical anesthetic drops, and no bandages or stitches are required.
Before LASIK Surgery
Your eye doctor will perform a thorough eye exam to ensure your eyes are healthy enough for the procedure. He or she will evaluate: the shape and thickness of your cornea; pupil size; refractive errors (myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism); as well as any other eye conditions.
The moistness of your eyes will also be evaluated, and a precautionary treatment may be recommended to reduce your risk of developing dry eyes after LASIK.
Usually, a corneal topographer is used to measure the curvature of the front surface of your eye and create a "map" of your cornea.
With wavefront technology associated with custom LASIK, you also are likely to undergo a wavefront analysis that sends light waves through the eye to provide an even more precise map of aberrations affecting your vision.
Your eye doctor will also note your general health history and any medications you are taking to determine if you are a suitable candidate for LASIK.
You should stop wearing contact lenses for a period of time advised by your doctor (typically around two weeks) before your eye exam and before the LASIK procedure, as contacts can alter the natural shape of your cornea.
How LASIK Works
Before your surgery begins, numbing eye drops are applied to your eye to alleviate any discomfort during the procedure. Your doctor may also give you some medication to help you relax.
An ultra-thin flap is created on the eye's surface during LASIK. After laser energy is applied to reshape the eye, the flap is replaced, to serve as a type of natural bandage.
Your eye will be positioned under the laser, and an instrument called a lid speculum is used to keep your eyelids open.
The surgeon uses an ink marker to mark the cornea before creating the flap. A suction ring is applied to the front of your eye to prevent eye movements or loss of contact that could affect flap quality.
The surgeon then uses a computer to adjust the excimer laser for your particular prescription.
You will be asked to look at a target light for a short time while he or she watches your eye through a microscope as the laser sends pulses of light to your cornea.
The laser light pulses painlessly reshape the cornea, although you may feel some pressure on your eye. You'll also hear a steady clicking sound while the laser is operating.
LASIK is performed on each eye separately, with each procedure taking only about five minutes.
Immediately After LASIK Surgery
Your doctor will have you rest for a bit, and typically you can return home right away (you will need someone to drive you). You may feel a temporary burning or itching sensation in your eyes immediately after surgery.
You should expect some blurry vision and haziness immediately after surgery; however, clarity should improve by the very next morning.
Your eyesight should stabilize and continue to improve within a few days, although in rare cases it may take several weeks or longer. For most people, vision improves immediately.
You may be able to go to work the next day, but many doctors advise a couple of days of rest instead.
Also, it is usually recommended that you refrain from any strenuous exercise for at least a week, since this can traumatize the eye and affect healing.
Generally, you will return to see your eye doctor or your LASIK surgeon the day after surgery.
At this initial check-up, he or she will test your vision to make sure you are legal to drive without glasses or contact lenses. In most states, this requires uncorrected visual acuity of 20/40 or better.
As with any other surgery, always follow your doctor's instructions, and take any medication prescribed. It also is important to refrain from rubbing your eye, as there is a small chance of dislodging the corneal flap.
Long-Term Results
Laser eye surgery offers numerous benefits and can dramatically improve your quality of life. Most people achieve 20/20 vision or better after the surgery, but LASIK results do vary. Some people may achieve only 20/40 vision or less.
You may still need to wear glasses or contact lenses following laser vision correction, though your prescription level typically will be much lower than before.
While the procedure has an excellent safety profile, post-operative LASIK complications can occur and may include infection or night glare (starbursts or halos that are most noticeable when you're viewing lights at night, such as while you're driving).
A small percentage of people have an enhancement, or "touch up," LASIK procedure for further improvement in vision.
You also may still need reading glasses once you reach your 40s, due to a normal age-related loss of near vision called presbyopia.
While LASIK surgery has a high success rate, it is important that you discuss all facets of the procedure with your surgeon prior to consenting to the surgery.

National Small College Rugby Organization LLC: Latest News: Occidental and California Maritime Advance to NSCRO PacWest Regional Championship
Occidental College - 2013 Pacific Cup Champion. Photo by Jeremy Castro
Occidental and California Maritime Advance to NSCRO PacWest Regional Championship
Reported written by Marc Ferguson
March 23-24 - Vallejo, Ca.
The first weekend of spring brought with it sunny skies and warm weather to Vallejo, Ca, home of CSU Maritime Academy the host for the inaugural playing of NSCRO Pacific Coast Cup Qualifier. Competing for the cup were host Cal Maritime champion of the Nor Cal Collegiate Rugby Conference, the University of Puget Sound champion of the Pacific Northwest Conference, Pepperdine University runner-up in the Pacific Mountain West Conference and Occidental College the champion of the Pacific Mountain West Conference.
The Saturday morning game matched Pepperdine vs. Cal Maritime. Maritime came out strong and dominated the game early with tries scored 10 minutes into the game by #12 Brandon Teepen and #8 Lonnie Shankling. Both tries were converted by #15 Will Fitzpatrick. Midway through the first half, Cal Maritime penalties' provided Pepperdine with 6 points by way of two successful kicks by Pepperdine #10 Takutu Suzuki. Scoring in the first half was rounded out with 3 more tries by Maritime #8 Lonnie Shankling and a try by #1 Larez Pinder. CMA made several replacements before the end of the half and into the second half. Scoring in the second half was limited to a try and penalty kick by #10 Kevin Raff. Final score: Cal Maritime 46, Pepperdine 6.
The afternoon match between Occidental and Puget Sound started out with steady forward play featuring hard rucking and rolling mauls by Oxy. Occidental got on the board first on the legs of shifty #15 Joseph Maloney. The try was converted by #10 Barnaby Audsley, who put on a kicking clinic during the rest of the game with 4 conversions and 3 penalty kicks. Several of the kicks were long and from the severe angle of the touch line. Maloney scored four tries in the game, most on masterful runs through midfield traffic. Audsley put Puget Sound on the defense throughout the game with masterful kicks to touch keeping Puget Sound deep on their own end of the pitch and creating scoring opportunities for Oxy. Occidental scoring was rounded out by 2 tries rammed in off rucks by #3 Oscar Flores. Puget Sound #9 Cole Mcilvaine booted a penalty try to give his side their only score in the first half. Down 24 – 3 at half, Puget Sound came out strong at the beginning of the second half with hard fought tries scored by #2 Murphy Franz and #8 Roman Vern. Puget Sound #9 Cole Mcilvaine finished the scoring with a final penalty kick. Final score: Occidental 39, Puget Sound 20.
The consolation match on Sunday pitted Puget Sound against Pepperdine. Pepperdine arrived at the tournament on Saturday with only 17 players and found themselves unable to field a full side for the Sunday match and forfeited the game. Puget Sound loaned them a few players and the game was contested as a friendly. Scoring tries for Pepperdine were #12 Matt Vandewoude (2), #5 Major Ellis, #15 Achilles Kontostathis, #13 Matt Lopez, #4 Jare Sexton and #10 Takutu Suzuki. Takutu Suzuki successfully converted 4 of the tries. Scoring tries for Puget Sound were #10 Cole Mcilvanie (2), #11 Isaac Thrupp and #8 Nick Butterfield. Cole Mcilvanie converted two tries and penalty kick. Final Score: Pepperdine 43, Puget Sound 27.
Sunday's final saw action between Cal Maritime and Occidental. Occidental came out strong early behind bruising forward play and scored midway through the half when #1 Leo Haroon punched the ball over for try. First half scoring ended with seconds to play on a push over try on a loose ruck by # 14 Jacob Sertich. The second half saw dominating defensive play by Occidental. Presented with several opportunities, Cal Maritime was just not able to capitalize and fell further behind. Tries in the second half were scored by #8 Sean Sarean, #12 A.C Zepponi, #14 Jacob Maloney. #10 Barnaby Audsley converted 1 try and added a penalty kick. Cal Maritime scored on tries by #8 Lonnie Shankling and Travis Quesenberry. Final Score: Occidental 25, Cal Maritime 10.
Both teams now advance to the PacWest Regional Championships in Glendale, CO on April 6. Cal Maritime Academy will face the University of Denver and Occidental takes on Benedictine College. The winner of this championship will advance to the NSCRO National Championship in Glendale, CO on April 27-28.

The media's saturation coverage of the NFL Draft unfortunately has skewed the way sports fans think about the NBA Draft.
And, perhaps as a result, some fans of the Orlando Magic are losing sight of what this draft really should be about for the franchise.
Too many fans want the Magic to draft "for need."
The refrain goes like this: The Magic have a significant deficiency at point guard; therefore, the team must — absolutely must!!! — draft a point guard.
I hear it all the time.
On sports talk radio. When I run into strangers or friends in town. When I open my work e-mail every morning.
But that line of thinking is woefully shortsighted.
It reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of where the Magic stand at this moment.
The Magic have just completed Year One of a long, potentially arduous, rebuilding project.
In the June 27 draft, Magic officials need to select the player they think has the best chance to develop into a perennial All-Star, regardless of position.
If the best high-ceiling player happens to be a center, draft him, even though the Magic already have a talented, young player at that position, Nik Vucevic.
If the best high-ceiling player happens to be a small forward, draft him, even though Maurice Harkless has the potential to be a top-notch defender.
The same goes for the power forward, shooting guard and point guard spots.
If this were the NFL, my advice would be different.
Pro football is a sport in which teams often should draft for need.
In the NFL, of course, there are far more prospects available in every draft, and the difference in quality among the top-notch players at different positions often isn't as profound as it is in the NBA.
Pro football also is a sport in which league officials systematically have created a state of perpetual parity. Teams with awful records one season are rewarded with easier schedules the next season, while teams with great records are punished the next season with tougher schedules.
The problem with this year's NBA Draft is that there's no single franchise-altering talent available — no one along the lines of Shaquille O'Neal in 1992, a LeBron James in 2003 or even an Anthony Davis in 2012.
Or at least that's what the experts think.
The question is: Is there a hidden gem out there somewhere? In 2010, the Indiana Pacers already had small forward Danny Granger when they used the 10th overall pick to select another wing, Paul George. What a brilliant move. George has emerged as the Pacers' best player, and he was just selected to the 2012-13 All-NBA Third Team.

Alan Cumming Macbeth Expands Ticket Rush Policy for Final Performances
By Adam Hetrick
The Broadway engagement of Tony Award winner Alan Cumming's one-man Macbeth has expanded its rush ticket policy to theatregoers of all ages for the final weekend of performances at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre.
All patrons will have access to the limited number of $30 rush tickets for the July 12 and July 13 8 PM performances of Macbeth. Rush tickets are available beginning at 10 AM on the day of the performance at the Barrymore box office.
"Throughout our incredible Broadway run, we've seen countless young theatregoers take advantage of our longstanding '$30 Under 30' rush ticket policy," producer Ken Davenport said in a statement. "Alan has now said that this is indeed the very last time that he'll ever do this production. He won't be taking it to another city. It won't tour. It won't play overseas. This is it. So for two performances only, this Friday and Saturday, we've elected to expand our rush policy to all patrons regardless of age, so that they can experience this incredible piece of Broadway theatre before it's gone forever."
Set in a psychiatric unit, Cumming plays a patient who is reliving the story of Macbeth – bringing to life over 15 characters in Shakespeare's bloody work, which is performed without an intermission. It officially opened April 21 and was extended through July 14.
The new staging of Macbeth premiered at the National Theatre of Scotland in June 2012 and played a New York run at the Rose Theatre in July 2012.
Tony Award winner John Tiffany (Once, The Glass Menagerie, Black Watch, The Bacchae) directs the production with Andrew Goldberg (The Bomb-itty of Errors). Ken Davenport (Godspell, Somewhere in Time, Altar Boyz) produces the Broadway run.
Read Playbill.com's coverage of "Macbeth Fan Night" and our interview with Cumming here.
The cast also features Jenny Sterlin (Heartbreak House, Major Barbara) and Brendan Titley (As You like It, Measure for Measure), who portray the Doctor and Orderly, respectively. Chris Kipiniak (Metamorphoses) understudies both roles.
Tiffany previously directed Cumming (Cabaret, Threepenny Opera, The Seagull) in The Bacchae, which was seen at the Lincoln Center Festival in 2008. Cumming made his stage debut as Malcolm in the Michael Boyd production of Macbeth in Glasgow.
The production has scenic and costume design by Merle Hensel, lighting design by Natasha Chivers, sound design by Fergus O'Hare, video projection design by Ian William Galloway, voice by Ros Steen, movement by Christine Devaney and music by Max Richter.
According to producers, "Macbeth is set in a clinical room deep within a dark psychiatric unit. Cumming is the lone patient, reliving the infamous story and inhabiting each role himself. Closed circuit television cameras watch the patient's every move as the walls of the psychiatric ward come to life in a visually stunning multi-media theatrical experience of Shakespeare's notorious tale of desire, ambition and the supernatural."
Cumming's screen credits include his Emmy-nominated performance on "The Good Wife," as well as "Goldeneye," "Spy Kids," "X2: X-Men United," "Titus," "Eyes Wide Shut," "The Tempest," "Sweet Land," "Sex and the City," "Frasier" and "Tinman."
The Barrymore Theatre is located at 243 West 47th Street.

Local farmers struggle to catch up
PLATTSBURGH — The rainy weather has left farmers concerned about their crops this season, and many are catching up on their harvest with the recent sunny weather.
Tony LaPierre, president of the Clinton County Farm Bureau and owner of Rusty Creek Farm in Chazy, has delayed harvesting his hay for about a month.
Biz News Ink
"It (the rain) has delayed a lot of normal cropping routines," LaPierre said.
Although planting corn typically begins at the end of May, some seed never went in the ground.
"A lot of people got their corn in, but there are still a lot of unplanted acres. Probably 20 to 25 percent of the acreage in the county is unplanted," LaPierre said.
Some corn that was planted didn't fare well in the wet weather, especially seeds that were planted in low-elevation areas.
"Corn that was planted there has drowned. The seedlings can't survive more than 48 hours under water," LaPierre said.
But corn isn't the only problem. Local farmers have struggled to harvest hay.
Hay fields need about four days in a row of sun before they can be harvested, LaPierre explained.
"If you have excess moisture, you're not able to put up a good quality bale," he said.
A wet bale can become moldy, which is a hazard to livestock. If the moisture level is too high, hay can combust, which is a hazard to farm structures.
"Any poor quality feed is poor for the health of the animal. You can't feed that kind of feed to livestock and expect them to do well," LaPierre said.
Often, cows will pick through moldy hay or refuse to eat it, he said.
Typically, farmers begin harvesting their hay in late May or early June.
"Here it is, in July, and very small amounts of hay have been put up," LaPierre said. "A lot of the crop has gone by or is mature in the field."
The quality of the hay goes down the longer that it stays in the field, he said. Waiting to harvest the hay also reduces chances of harvesting a second or third crop.
Now that the sunny weather has dried the fields, farmers are putting in long hours.
"We're working overtime to try and catch up, if that's even possible," LaPierre said.
All of the delay puts a strain on labor and time management, he said.
"You're at the mercy of Mother Nature," LaPierre said. "But that's the nature of the business."
Sam Trombley, owner of Win Place and Show Farm on Hayford Road in Champlain, hasn't yet harvested his hay field either.
"Everybody's in the same boat," he said.
Although his horse farm has a hay field, he also purchases hay from local farmers.
"There's a lot of hay out there if we get the weather to get it," Trombley said.
He said the prices of hay haven't gone up, and the quality won't be nearly as good as a field harvested on time. The timothy, a plant that supplies horses with nutrients, has already flowered in his field.
Trombley also doesn't want to tear up the field using heavy equipment in the mud.
"Every time you tear something up, it costs money to fix it," he said.
Last year at this time, he had already finished haying.
Trombley has to be conscious of the condition of the hay he feeds his horses, as they are sensitive to dusty or moldy hay. The dust from mold spores can cause respiratory problems and other issues in horses.
"Their body can't absorb it and digest it like a cow can," Trombley said.
Meanwhile, students who take riding lessons at Win Place and Show farm are fortunate to have an indoor ring to ride in, as the outside ring has been muddy.
Riding instructor Carolyn Reid brought the jumps outside for the riders for the first time Sunday.
Applejacks Orchard on Brand Hollow Road in Peru has also felt the effects of the rain. Jim Murray, who owns the farm, grows 2 acres of pumpkins and 4 acres of apples.
He said the pumpkins have been hit the hardest.
"It began raining right when we put them in the ground," Murray said. "We went through about a six-week period with extremely wet soils, and they didn't grow."
The pumpkins are about half the size they usually are this time of year.
"I don't know if we can ever make up for the lost six weeks," he said.
In addition to the stunted growth, about 35 percent never grew at all, he said.
"I don't know if the seeds rotted or if they sprouted and the roots became water-logged," Murray said.
He said the pumpkins won't be as plentiful as they usually are and that will affect business. Murray anticipates running out of pumpkins, and may look for wholesale sources to purchase from.
"We're a you-pick place so people come here for entertainment," Murray said.
Though it's still too early to tell, he said there's a chance he'll have enough pumpkins, but the likelihood is dwindling.
As for the apple trees, Murray has had some issue with apple scab, a fungal disease common with a lot of rain. Any attempt at fungicide protection has been washed off by rain.
Despite the constant battle he thinks the apple crop will be great this year, and new apple trees he recently planted have appreciated the wet weather.

National Grid admits to severing fibre optic cable in Seven Kings
Updated 3:45pm Monday 11th February 2013 in News By Melanie Attlesey
National Grid has admitted it is to blame for leaving thousands of Virgin Media customers without internet, TV or phone access for three days.
A fibre optic cable was severed by workmen in Goodmayes Road, Seven Kings, on Wednesday.
Virgin Media engineers arrived on site within the hour and had been working since to fix the cable.
Service was restored to customers on Saturday afternoon.
A National Grid spokesman said: "We were carrying out some vital gas mains repair work in Goodmayes Road, Seven Kings on Wednesday.
"Despite taking reasonable steps to detect cables, a fibre optic cable was cut during the work.
"The cable was located near to the gas main we were working on.
"We informed Virgin Media of the incident as soon as we became aware and apologise for any inconvenience this incident caused."
The spokesman confirmed an investigation into the incident is being conducted.

I came across a 64 Loboy that had this original 6V horn installed on it the other day. It is a "Delco Remy" brand with "Model 313", "6V", "Type S", and "Made in the USA", stamped into the housing in different locations. I got it cleaned up, installed it on another 6v Cub I had and it actually works great!
I have been collecting Cubs for over 10 years and this is the first one I have actually had, and only the second I have actually seen in person. I was quite surprised when I saw it.
I have found there not to be much documentation at all on these, after finding it in the parts manual, it appears the PO had it installed facing the wrong direction, but a rotation of the flat bracket and bolt solved that so that it is facing down when installed on a different Cub.
Here are some pics:

RICHARDSON — More than 150 mourners and passed candles to one other in Richardson Saturday evening, spreading the light where there is so much darkness.
It's been one day since 28 people were killed in Connecticut. The dead include 20 elementary school students.
"I have not been able to stop crying since yesterday. I just feel so much pain," said Ambreen Hasnat as she held a candle.
Ambreen Hasnat held and hugged her two kids more than normal these last two days. There were people of all faiths, all ages sharing the same pain.
"I haven't even processed it," said one mourner.
For some at the vigil, the full impact of the Connecticut tragedy has not yet sunk in. Some were asking how one person can be linked to so much death. Others questioned why the dead must be so young.
"I don't think my life will ever be the same again, because now I think, 'What if it was my kids?'" Hasnat said.
Amarjit Dhillon burned 28 candles — one for each victim and one even for the suspected shooter, who, police said, killed himself in the wake of the unthinkable carnage.
"We always say, 'We pray for everybody,'" Dhillon said.
The prayers at the vigil asked for strength for the victim's families in Newtown, Connecticut.

So I think we can all assume that this is no longer worth a full article, but a writeup must be done. We're used to the NHL canceling games by now, but this time it comes with an assumed drop date for the league. What does that mean? Well it means that if no CBA is reached by January 15th, the NHL is going nuclear and taking out the season. All the legal stuff that's been going on the past couple weeks seems to make that deadline a hell of a challenge to meet, so the doomsday sayers can begin their chanting now. Well, the doomsday sayers in regards to the NHL. People who think the world is going to end tomorrow (today in Australia and New Zealand) are still really, really stupid. 625 games have been canceled thus far, over 50% of the NHL schedule.
Grabner is heading back to Villach for what is currently planned to be a month. More summary/translation in the first post below:
If you're interested in reading about the provisions in the new CBA, this article provides a wealth of information.
"The NBA Players' Association has decided not to accept or extend the opportunity to vote to all players after meeting for almost three hours in New York Monday to discuss the league's latest proposal. Billy Hunter announced the players have decided to file a disclaimer against the league and its owners. 'We've arrived at the conclusion that the collective bargaining process has completely broken down,' Hunter said." Goodbye, 2011-2012 NBA season.
p.s.- and did Yao Ming steal Shawn Bradley's bike???
Well, good to see the Clips aren't guaranteed our #1 if there is no season.
How many $$$ (by team or player) have been lost due to the lockout? So far (as of 8:28pm PT on Wednesday, November 9th) with 8 regular season days missed players for the Blazers have lost $3,568,184.40. Brandon Roy is losing $87,883.25 per day. Aldridge has lost $634,643.65 in total. Pretty crazy stuff.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Someone targeted families at their lowest point and now police say they've caught him. A Louisville man was charged Thursday with breaking into at least ten homes while the victims were at funerals.
Michael Bennett, 32, has already served time for burglary, and based on the number of burglaries Bennett is charged with this time, investigators speculate some of the victims may even live outside of Jefferson County. Unfortunately, much of what Bennett is accused of taking might never be back in the hands of the people who have already lost so much more than earthly possessions.
Shortly after Donald Johnson's home was broken into during his wife's funeral in July, he told WAVE 3 News, "to me it's the lowest life person that could be."
When we met him, Johnson was experiencing so many emotions. Forgiveness was not one of them. He'd lost his wife of 53 years, Delores, and was struggling to understand how someone could take advantage of the family's grief and time away from home for the funeral. Police haven't charged Bennett with Johnson's break-in yet, but the M.O. fits.
"It's insult to injury if you will," said LMPD Lieutenant Rob Davis.
Davis said Bennett would scan the obituaries and target homes of the survivors.
"So if the husband passed, the wife was at the funeral," siad Davis. "If the wife passed, the husband was at the funeral."
Police say Bennett was breaking in and taking what he could to support a heroin addiction.
"Then he was stealing anything that was easily pawnable, you could get money for, we looked at guns, jewelry," said Davis.
For weeks, police have worked to break the case. Finally they got a tip about a truck parked outside of a home that turned out to have been broken into.
"A citizen that was very attentive and just talked to us and give us the basic information gave us the key to solving this whole thing," said Davis. "If it hadn't been for that citizen, we'd still be hunting."
They linked the truck to Bennett. Then Thursday an officer caught Bennett leaving a home that had just been broken into with items stolen from another family the same day in the truck. So far, they've only found a fraction of what was stolen.
"Their property is probably gone," Davis said of the other victims.
But Davis says the families can take some small comfort from the arrest, "so you don't have to sit at home and worry every night about this gentleman. He's ours now."
For Donald Johnson, while he'd like to have his things back, now at least his curiosity might be satisfied.
"I'd like to meet him face to face to see what kind of character he is ... has to be a low life," he said.
Police say that they don't believe Bennett will be the last person to use obituaries to find victims. Davis said grieving families need to find someone who will stay behind at their homes during funerals. For those of us who want to pay our respects, Davis said this might be an even better way to help.

Maribell Brown has served in the United States army for 10 years. She is also a student at Georgia Regents University and now, there is a center that will give students like Brown extra support.
"I know, I've worked with this group in my G.I post 9-11 bill and they've always been really supportive of everything we need," Brown said.
The Military Resource Center comes fully equipped with a lounge area, a computer lab and a group study room.
"It gives students that have been in the military, or currently in the
military, a place to hang out together, a place to study together and a
place to be successful together," said Carol Giardina, GRU's Director of Military and Veterans Services.
Staff members are also available in the center to help veterans do everything from transferring credits to processing VA benefits."There's going to be a lot of people that you can talk to that know what's available for you and it's the easiest way to get information, said Brown. "It's a little sanctuary."
