Great hardware detracted by Verizon's nickle & diming
by TonyTMX on September 11, 2009
Pros: Spectacular screen, very good tactile response on the touch screen, quick response, very usable QWERTY keyboard, excellent interface, great battery life ... Overall an exceptional user experience.
Cons: Verizon, Verizon, Verizon, Verizon ...

Summary: I was the first person in my local Verizon store to purchase the Rogue. There is very little negative about the Samsung hardware. A couple basic layout items that I have issues with 1) power connector on the side and 2) headphone connector on the side. I do understand the reasoning, with the slide out keyboard it would be difficult to locate the connectors on the top and bottom, however it still needs to be mentioned, due to the fact that it is a little difficult to hold when plugged into power, and a little uncomfortable with the headphones plugged in and the phone placed in ones pocket.Just an update. It's been about a month now since I've had the Rogue. I've only noticed one issue. I had a few occasions, about 2 or 3. where the phone randomly rebooted. No rhyme or reason to it. I proceeded to do a firmware update/reprogram *228 and have not had a problem since. I figured there would be some possible issues since this is a new phone and I got one of the first ones. Other than that so far so good. The battery life is excellent. Call quality is exceptional, and I love the screen. I still haven't explored all the possibilities with this phone, but so far I'm very happy and impressed. Samsung did an excellent job with this piece, and Verizon didn't screw it up too much with their proprietary software. I'll keep everyone posted as I explore the unit deeper over time. Enjoy!
The speed of the Samsung OS is very good. Screens refresh fast, sub-menus load quickly and applications launch at a very respectable speed. It has just about everything you would need in a integrated messaging phone. It would be nice if they made the unit a bit wider maybe 1/8" similar to the iPhone to give a bit more grasp for people with larger hands. This would also add to a slightly larger screen which would make this phone the closet thing to an iPhone killer out there.
The biggest issue I have with the Rouge has nothing to do with the hardware, it's Verizon. Having been with them for decades I don't dispute they have exceptional coverage in most areas, but their pricing has gotten ridiculous. The nickle and dime mentality is going to eventually kill Verizon mainly because people will be disgusted in not being able to figure out what they're paying for. That and the fact that they are expensive just leads to the frustration. Basically I have two phones with them on a family share plane w/ the new friends and family program. If I understand it my new bill will be around $140/mo plus tax for 1400 minutes shared, unlimited emails, data, txt, plus Vcast, and maybe VZNavigator, I stil can't figure that one out. The point is I wish Verizon and the other carriers would approach things like Sprint and Boost - flat fee for everything. I think $99 is not bad for a complete voice/data package, Boost's $50 is much better, but their Nextel network just isn't great, so you get what you pay for. After all these years I still think I'm getting robbed with Verizon. I know it's less than AT&T's iPhone plan, but still it's just ridiculous to spend $150 for a data/phone plan without unlimited everything.
So in conclusion, the Rouge, I'm extremely happy with it. I didn't want another Microsoft mobile device, because Windows mobile is TERRIBLE. I didn't want a Blackberry because the QWERTY is difficult for me, and the STORM, well it's slow and problematic, so with that said the Samsung had everything I was looking for without the issues of Microsoft or RIM. It's slick, has an awesome screen, will probably do everything you want it to, and add a 16Gb microSD card, in my opinion you have an excellent alternative to an iPhone with the bonus keyboard. Samsung, so far you hit a homerun with this handset. Now hopefully it will last two years!

Greatest phone I have ever owned and I had an Iphone!!!
by velvetslash on October 10, 2009
Pros: Amazingly clear, large, bright and colorful AMOLED Screen, HTML Internet, Cool Movable Widgets, Touch Screen, Great Audio and Video, 3.0mp camera with flash and dslr options like iso settings etc...,QWERTY keyboard, Micro SD, Headphone Jack, Sleek!!!
Cons: Touch Screen isn't as good for web as iphone, thus zooming in etc... but still nice, Very few apps but it's a new phone, battery life isnt amazing but it's a large bright screen so it's ok....buy an extended and you r ok, other then that....nothing!!
Summary: I used to have an iphone and it was great, I love the apps and being able to jailbreak it and never have to pay for anything ever was amazing ...
Summary: I used to have an iphone and it was great, I love the apps and being able to jailbreak it and never have to pay for anything ever was amazing and illegal, but amazing too and then I kept having to pay over 200$ a month for BULL **** charges and roaming charges and extra data plans bs and it was just one thing after another, terrible phone service and the iphone just got old, if you are a child who plays video games then the iphone is for you....so I switched back to Verizon once again and bought a Samsung Rogue and I could not be happier. The second I turned it on and saw the bright screen and vribrant colors I was freakin blown away. It's seriously worth it just to buy for 99$(after 100$ mail in and 2yr contract) just to see the colors on the phone, it's insane.The screen is just an added bonus that makes everything surf on the web and text sent seem like eye candy. Seriously, web pages are bright and crsip and work fine, unlike some reviewers said, you can watch most flash videos because it has flash lite(not perfect, but better then the iphone) and the audio and voice command features are great. The 3.0 mega pixel Camera is the best I have seen with built in flash and auto focus and the list goes on....the video is excellent and the options to send videos and pictures are amazing. This is a texters dream phone with nice slide out full QWERTY keyboard with illuminated keys for the night time porn(just kidding, no I am not). Texting is fast and easy and the added touch screen features make it a breeze if you mess up a little. I just love this phone, yes there are some minor minor flaws, but overall it's an excellent phone with amazing features and it's not an iphone killer cause of the lack of apps, but if verizon opens this up to designers and coders it could be...it's sleeker and fits in you hand better than and iphone and has many of the same features, but better options or additions to them and the little things like not a long battery life and no touch zoom for internet are out weiged by everything it does brilliantly..Samsung has made a killer phone, verizon helps out byt giving me unlimited everything for about 110$ a month, which includes minutes, texting, web, vz navigator(which is actual turn by turn, unlike the ******** iphone crap blue dot gps) and I can watch tv and movies with great quality on it too....it never ends...hope this review helps...in short, it's not a busniess phone like the blackberry models, but it has similar cool features and it's not a app machine like the iphone, but the screen and widgets and texting make it an excellent phone till your next 2 yr upgarde comes up...I think it's the best verizon phone hands down...my sister's blackberry sucks and eats up battery and all it's good for is email and having a million contacts, no fun....this cell phone is fun, sleek, beautiful, amazing, sexy, crazy, ***** and better than the iphone...well sort of..I liked the iphone, just not att.....if you want a great phone for multimedia, texting, and everythimg the balckberriess and iphone have, but more...then grab a samsung rogue...you can't beat it for the price....there are some little things that get annoying, but not nearly as much as my old iphone or blackberry....I promise you won't be disapointed at all.....!!!!! BUY A ROGUE, very cool phone

Very versitile phone
by KavonH on September 13, 2009
Pros: Yes, i was one of those people that had been waiting for the release of this phone with baited breath. So the day it came out, i got it. I have had nothing but success with this phone (upgraded from EnV2). IF you have a data plan, its a great phone.
Cons: I was taken by surprise when i was told that it was a "premium" phone, and required a data plan, besides that no problems, except poor audio quality on Youtube and so far only 14 apps compatible with the phone.
Summary: Overall, awesome phone for somebody who would like to have e-mail on the go. If the data plan is what is keeping you from getting the phone, my suggestion would ...
Summary: Overall, awesome phone for somebody who would like to have e-mail on the go. If the data plan is what is keeping you from getting the phone, my suggestion would be to get the Connect plan, which gives you unlimited MB's, and unlimited text, but doesnt give you the VZ navigator or VCast Video (you dont even really need VCast videa because you have Youtube, and you can use Google maps for a navigator).

Summary: I was going to get this phone yesterday, but rep told me that I need to have a data plan which is fine, but after look at their puny plan I back out. Was thinking that I can upgrade my family plan to family connect but plan is not allow for my wife's smart phone, still can't understand why a smart phone need to be "upgrade" to a lesser function phone to use the plan. Will need to look other carrier.

The greatest, especially for the price and features.

Pros: Camera, camcorder, video editing, Flash Lite, TouchWiz, HTML browser, picture editing, document viewer, email capabilities, self portrait mirror, call quality, interface, screen, battery, price, Bluetooth, EVDO (3G), games, and about everything else.
Cons: None, so far.

Summary: This is a luxury phone, with great features, at the greatest price tag for what is has, some of the rare findings are a standard video editor, slide show maker, Flash Lite, 3.0mp camera with flash, video, and all sorts of hidden camera features, like you can make a mosaic, there's different settings as to what it will insert, it will take multiple photos, and then it will make it into a format (to hard to describe in just a review), it has photo editing like sharpening, blurring, black & white converting, inserting text, lowering contrast (contrast is preset, but it's different on each setting for how the photo looks). The reason I stumbled across this, was because my parents got this, and I got my hands on it at an event, and I couldn't stop marveling at it's features until the battery died, about 6 hours later. The Youtube was even faster than my computer, thanks to a speedy 3G connection. I showed my parents some of the features, and that just blew their mind. A document viewer, video and photo editor, HTML browser, Flash Lite, full email capabilities (I don't have a corporate email account), TouchWiz interface, Vcast services, a 3mp camera with flash, self portrait mirror, different ways of making your photos "pop" like the multi-photo merging to make awesome photos and the backgrounds and borders (like at the bottom of one, there's money), dice simulation with vibration and sound feed back like regular dice. That's not even the beginning, there's a much loved 3.5mm headphone jack, Bluetooth capabilities (voice and stereo), 6 hour (for me anyway) battery life, great preloaded games (the trials, but still great), and so much more, it would take me an hour more to describe it. Now for the feature reviews:
the camera takes photos that rival the capabilities and quality of a regular digital camera (I'm talking about the regular slip-in-your-bag cameras, because those are the most popular), it may take short videos, but with so many camera features, and such good quality, it even rivals SLRs (professional photographers camera), and costs about 10 times less than most nice cameras. The camera has a great array of features, that even a professional photographer would even throw their old camera away for this, for it has a way for you to take one photo at a time, and have it put together in different forms, there's even a setting that lets you put 9 photos together in boxes, as if your family (or what you are taking pictures from for that matter) were The Brady Bunch. You can also have it put a border around your picture, or a partial border (like on one border, your face would be surrounded by a border of hearts and in the shape of a big heart, and in one partial border, you can make like a pool of money under you). By far, it is very simple to get to that, just press a button on the side (but you must know that it is hard to take a self portrait with some of the camera features, but the mirror still helps, a lot). Now, the camcorder has most of those features, so I won't go into that, but video quality is great as well. The video and picture editing, you can sharpen, blur, make color to B&W (black and white), grayscale, and plenty more, even to change it to look like the worlds gone to the wrong color lens. It can make a slide show of 3 pictures or videos, and also insert text, and you can decide when it will change (I recommend just doing it with photos, so you won't cut off any video), and nothing is easier to use, or integrated (because this comes standard). The Flash Lite allows the Youtube widget to work (but I recommend using 3G, because otherwise, it will take awhile to load), and well, it just works extremely good in picture and sound, but the only downside, it doesn't work in the HTML browser, only in the widget (for me anyway). The TouchWiz interface, is just like a piece of cake when you get used to how you drag it out and in and know how to make sure you don't drag it out when your trying to open it, which comes after an hour or to of use. The TouchWiz interface allows you to easily customize your interface by simply dragging in and off your home screen, the screen stays the same even when you slide up the keyboard into landscape. The HTML browser is only one word: fabulous, I can't describe it any other way, and it hard to put into words. The document viewer views and edits word documents, and is terrific. The email is great, with web mail, and corporate (with special contract), and you can view it in the web browser, or have it download. The rest, is just terrific, especially the call quality, for it has almost crystal clear reception, except on the road, where you'll be driving. The people on the other end marveled at how clear it was, especially since I switched form AT&T, and I thought it sounded like a landline. Finally, the best of all, the price. The Samsung Rogue is $99.99 form Verizon Wireless with a 2 year contract. For all the features, I'd turn down an Iphone 3GS, and recommend this.

Summary: When I had a PDA phone (Samsung i760) I would delete emails all day long and then peruse them more casually later that night on my PC at home. With this phone and Mobile Email, you cannot do this. If you delete an email on your phone, it gets deleted from your email server. There is no option to leave them on the server.

Third Rogue, and Counting. Realy Terrible Phone.

Summary: Although this phone has some good features, it has a long way to go. I'll start off by saying that I'm not one my THIRD ROGUE. That should say something about how reliable this phone is. The first two had such awful freezing problems that they both had to be replaced within a 2 month period of time. Now, I'm on my third Rogue, which has a defective keyboard that is incredibly different than my other Rogues (thanks,Verizon).
The phone has a great 3.0mp camera (although you would assume that it has a 5 or 6mp camera based on the great photos) with lots of features. However, the file size of your photos are so large that it defeats the purpose of picture messaging - a lot of other phones simply cannot receive the files.
The only good things I have to say about this phone are the good call quality and nice browser. Remember, this isn't a smartphone.
Although it may not seem like I posted many "cons", the ones I type out are very difficult to cope wth, especally the slow touchscreen, nightly charging, and slow touchscreen. Do yourself a favor and don't get this phone!

by bryan_63 on September 12, 2009
Pros: Don't know where to start from the gorgeous screen to the easy use, its all amazing.
Cons: Battery life can run up quickly if you use the internet, messaging and email alot, but if you just use it normally it will last you just fine.
Summary: For those complaining about the Verizon plans, you are being silly. I signed up with a premium family plan, have unlimited everything! for only 60/month! Those complaining about data ...

Summary: It's pretty. It's flashy. It's sleek. And it is an example of how marketing catches the eye while it confounds the brain. This was my experience with the Samsung Rogue by Verizon: it performs only one function at a time (this includes the music player; you cannot play and browse your music files at the same time!); the QWERTY keyboard is VERY awkward due to poor design; it comes with few apps, and there are even less available from Verizon; the games are only demos (nothing is free at Verizon); ring tones must be downloaded through Verizon; this is not a smart phone, yet a data plan is required(min. $9.99/month); this phone is wrapped up tight with Verizon proprietary software, so what you get is all you are going to get. I had my Rogue for 3 days. During that time, the phone locked up numerous times (often with the beautiful screen going white) while using Bluetooth, VCast music player, and while using the internet. Could be a bad phone, but the rep at the Verizon store said that was not the case. Have one and want to trade it for something that functions reliably? For a $35 "reshelving" fee, Verizon will be glad to help. Cheers to Big V.

Family Fitness Made Fun
8 Ways to Get Started on Family Fitness continued...
Whatever you choose, the latest Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans recommend that kids engage in at least one hour of aerobic activities a day. At least three days a week those activities should be vigorous. Young people should also shoot for doing muscle-strengthening activities at least three days a week.
That may seem like a tall order, especially for kids hooked on videogames or computer pastimes. But the benefits of becoming more active as a family are enormous. Studies show that active children and adolescents are fitter, have stronger bones, better cardiovascular health, lower risk of developing insulin resistance, and overall healthier body composition. They're also more self-confident and less prone to suffering depression.

Report: Gabrielle Giffords raises $11M for anti-gun effort
An anti-gun group spearheaded by former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords has reportedly raised more than $11 million in just four months.
According to Politico, Americans for Responsible Solutions has received funds from more than 53,500 donors.
"Our early success at building a powerful network of committed activists - and the strength of that network - shows that the issue of reducing gun violence in America isn't going away," said ARS executive director and co-founder Pia Carusone.
Currently, the group has only run a few ads. A majority of the funds have likely gone to continued efforts to encourage the Senate to pass gun control measures.
The group has aired one ad in Arizona thanking Sen. John McCain for his pro-gun control vote.
Giffords and her husband, Mark Kelly, founded Americans for Responsible Solutions.

Russell was born on December 7, 1953 in Salt Lake City, Utah, the son of Erwin Louis and Shirley Mae Ericson. Russell passed away on December 3, 2012, just four days shy of his 59th birthday. He was preceded in death by his parents. Russell is survived by his two siblings, Richard Ericson, a brother, and Shelley Ericson Wheeler, a sister. Also surviving Russell are nine nieces and nephews.
Russell worked as a welder for 26 years where he made many friends. Russell enjoyed owning and riding horses (one of which he would bathe in the car wash). He and a good friend, JB Holbrook, were great fans of the cutter horse races.
Russell loved his family. One of his later "bucket list" goals was to be sealed to his parents with his siblings.This goal was achieved on October 31, 2012 when the family became an eternal family in the Bountiful LDS Temple.

Corporate Terrorism; Vote NO to Peer to Peer Piracy Act
A bill entered into Congress by a California congressman called the \"Peer to Peer Piracy Prevention\" Act, if passed, would allow music and media industry \"hackers\" to attack peer-to-peer and individual home and business computers, and networks on a \"search and destroy\" mission for electronic copyright materials. This is a violation of our civil rights and the rights we are granted when we purchase music cd\'s. Any media file, if THEY believe it is copyrighted material would be corrupted and/or destroyed completely from the hard disks of personal home computers and internet sites! This bill, if exploited, could open up our computers to public view and they can shuffle through our files at will. It would also allow them to overload computer networks and internet sites with \"garbage files\" and multiple download requests to point that it would cause network outages. PLEASE VISIT MY WEB SITE AT THE LINK TO THE RIGHT FOR LINKS TO CONGRESS AND THE SENTATE, OR VISIT THEM DIRECTLY! Let them know you wont tolerate this kind of corporate terrorism! It\'s up to all of us to make sure this bill doesn\'t become law!

- Studio: Buena Vista Pictures
- Release Date: Dec 19, 2002
- Starring: Barry Pepper, Edward Norton, Philip Seymour Hoffman
- Summary: The story of the last twenty-four hours Monty Brogan (Norton) gets to spend with his two best friends and his girlfriend before he goes to prison for seven years for pushing heroin.
- Director: Spike Lee
- Genre(s): Drama, Crime
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 24 out of 37
Mixed: 10 out of 37
Negative: 3 out of 37
25th Hour struck me as one of the best movies of 2002, but it's also a film that will strike some of its audience as ethically dubious or threatening.
The film at its simplest serves as a cautionary tale, but it also functions as a meditation on how little it takes to redirect a life by choice or by chance.
Too bad there's also a final 15 minutes that surely ranks among the worst endings an otherwise good movie has ever received.
Lee doesn't seem to have the slightest sympathy for his hero, no particular point is made, and the whole exercise seems cold and empty.
Lapses into melodramatic self-importance and gratuitous stylistic flourishes that take the audience out of the action -- are outweighed by the steadily amplified emotional power of this ultimately moving drama.
Spike Lee's films have been provocative, blunt, thoughtful, misguided, daring, sentimental, funny, honest and silly. But 25th Hour earns the director two new adjectives: irrelevant and tedious.
Score distribution:
Positive: 38 out of 47
Mixed: 1 out of 47
Negative: 8 out of 47
Jun 19, 2013The 25th Hour is a faithful adaption, sticking closely to the novel. The only real deviation is Spike Lee's inclusion of the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks and the event's effect on NYC, and it's done masterfully. The acting is superb across the board, the pacing near-perfect and it all adds up to one of the most moving films I've ever seen.… Expand
Jul 3, 2011The one scene where Norton's character is talking to himself in the mirror of that restaurant is the one that totally sold me on this film. It was pretty good until that point but when that happened I was blown away. Great film!… Collapse
Apr 28, 2013This certainly isn't a movie that I would want to watch together with friends. Instead of trying to grab your attention with visual-heavy scenes, this movie mainly consists of conversations. It's about a realistic scenario and how the people affected by it are dealing with it. And I really like the movie for that. It's different from what I usually watch.
The conversations are also very realistic. There are some scenes that were kind of unnecessary but still blew me away by how these characters talked to each other. A lot of times I thought to my self: "Yea, I could see my self taking part of that conversation." Although the drug mobster is kind of overblown.
I can see why people find this movie boring. It's not for everyone. If you're the type of guy that can sit down for 2 hours and listen to people talk to each other about what they think will happen to them and what they're afraid of instead of them taking part in action scenes, then give this movie a shot. I certainly really enjoyed it.… Expand
Jan 1, 2014i think that this movie rank from below-average to normal in the most cases,
the blew-average is the way that spike lee decided to deliver the story and the normal is the story itself,
in other words the story struggled so hard to be delivered but the strong aspect about this movie was the performances.
as usual Edward Norton gives a solid performance along with the secondary characters like Philip Seymour Hoffman and Barry Pepper, but some scenes were completely irrelevant to the story such as the bathroom mirror scene and some of the camera work was completely unnecessary, it's like "hey we can do this effect and this effect", and I'm not really familiar with spike lee's work but i'm guessing from this movie it's average and the one thing i can take from this movie is me saying "hey you're good looking, you know that's gonna be bad for you if you ever go to jail" WHAT "oh just something i learned from 25th hours".
if you didn't get my point then you need to watch the movie again, also the last scene when Edward Norton is old with his happy family is completely ridiculous, hey spike lee through some extra bucks on that shot, don't be so cheap.… Expand
May 22, 201425th Hour is 2 hours long, but if you don`t fast forward it will feel like 25 hours.Allot of talk amongst friends, and people the main character knows. It`s a slow moving move with not much going on besides the thought of what is going to happen to the main character who will be going to jail. All his friends, and family talk about him like hes going to die. This is a backround movie to watch while you do something else.… Expand
Feb 25, 2012weird movie, about some criminal guy and his friends. Just another stupid movie that involves criminals going to jail and **** like that. I am not interested in this LOW LIFE ****… Expand

Last year, you might have figured, Anderson's Riverfield All-Star softball team caught lightning in a bottle.
The team, comprised of 11- and 12-year-old girls, won the state and regional championships and finished fourth at the Little League Softball World Series in Portland, Ore. It was the best finish ever for a local youth softball team.
Only four players from that team returned this year to play for Riverfield, so you can be forgiven if you thought the team's glory years were one and done.
But the Riverfield All-Stars are back at it again. This week, they repeated as state champions, recovering from a first-round loss to capture the title in Lebanon. Today, they embark on the nine-team regional tournament in Indianapolis. Riverfield begins play against the Wisconsin champion at 2:30 p.m. at Ruben F. Glick Little League Central Region field.
Coaches Seth Kelley, Brock Hubble and Brad Duncan have done a masterful job of molding this year's edition of the Riverfield All-Stars into another powerhouse. But the players themselves deserve the lion's share of credit for the hard work they've put into becoming another championship team. Certainly, the lingering residue of the 2012 team's successes have helped to give them confidence in their ability to compete against the best.
If the Riverfield girls can make it through their five-team pool, then win the regional title, they'll be off to Portland again for another shot at national glory.
If they don't make it out of the regional? Well, they'll still serve as an example to local kids — and adults — that sustained excellence can be accomplished through hard work and teamwork.
In summary Win or lose at the regional, the Riverfield All-Star softball team is a shining example of the value of hard work and teamwork.

Nomination criteria & form
Learn more about Ohio State's Heart and Vascular Center
This prize provides
national and international recognition and support to those at the forefront of
cardiovascular sciences.
The recipient of the Jay
and Jeanie Schottenstein Prize will be a leader in cardiovascular sciences, a
physician or biomedical scientist who has made extraordinary and sustained
leadership contributions to improving healthcare.
The Schottenstein Laureate
will also receive an honorarium of $100,000 (US).
Established by a $2
million endowment from humanitarian philanthropists Jay and Jeanie
Schottenstein, the prize is chartered to The Ohio State University Wexner
Medical Center's Heart and Vascular Center, and will be awarded biennially.
Dr. Garret
FitzGerald is the recipient of the 2013 Schottenstein Prize. He is the McNeil Professor in Translational Medicine and Therapeutics
at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, where he chairs the
Department of Pharmacology and directs the Institute for Translational Medicine
and Therapeutics. Dr. FitzGerald's research has been characterized by an
integrative approach to elucidating the mechanisms of drug action, drawing on
work in cells, model organisms and humans. His work contributed substantially
to the development of low-dose aspirin for cardioprotection. FitzGerald's group
was the first to predict and then mechanistically explain the cardiovascular
hazard from NSAIDs. He has also discovered many products of lipid peroxidation
and established their utility as indices of oxidant stress in vivo. His
laboratory was the first to discover a molecular clock in the cardiovascular
system and has studied the importance of peripheral clocks in the regulation of
cardiovascular and metabolic function. Dr. FitzGerald has received the Boyle,
Coakley and Harvey medals, the Lucian, Scheele and Hunter Awards and the
Cameron, Taylor, Schottenstein and Jacob Herz Prizes and the Grand Prix of the
Lefoulon-Delalande Foundation. He is a member of the Institute of Medicine and
a Fellow of the Royal Society.
This prestigious prize provides national and international recognition to a physician or biomedical scientist who has made extraordinary and sustained leadership contributions to improving healthcare; or who has successfully pursued innovative biomedical research with demonstrated translational benefits to patient care. Those honored will be practitioners and/or scientists whose accomplishments and contributions have taken place over a career of dedicated and focused scientific discovery. The prize is awarded biennially. The current application period has ended for 2013. Check back in the future for application information for the 2015 award.
Jay and Jeanie Schottenstein are passionate about Ohio State. Their children – Joseph, Jeffrey and Jonathan – have each attended, or are attending the University. Jeanie, herself, is a graduate.
The passion doesn't stop there. Jay and Jeanie and Jay's parents and siblings all have philanthropic ties to the University; the Jerome Schottenstein Center bears his late father's name. One might say the colors of scarlet and gray run deep in Jay's and Jeanie's veins.
It was natural then, for them to pledge $2 million to The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in 2008 to create the Jay and Jeanie Schottenstein Prize in Cardiovascular Science. The prize establishes an endowed fund to award up to $100,000 biennially to a physician or researcher who is an international leader in the field of cardiovascular sciences.
Because prizes of such magnitude are rare in scientific research and medicine, the Schottenstein Prize is expected to generate a lot of excitement.
"This award will create a connection between Ohio State and some of the most outstanding cardiovascular scientists in the world," adds Jeanie. "Our goal in establishing this prize is to make a strong institution even stronger."
According to Ohio State's Heart and Vascular Center Director, Thomas Ryan, MD, this prize will not only provide international recognition to someone who is on the leading edge of his or her field, it will also offer an unparalleled educational opportunity for OSU's academic, medical and research communities and the community at large. The awarding of this prize will expose these groups to the knowledge and discoveries of a physician or researcher of great talent and caliber.
"Our vision at Ohio State's Heart and Vascular Center is to leverage advanced techniques and technologies to innovate and translate knowledge into personalized heart care," explains Ryan. "The Schottenstein Prize offers another avenue through which to accomplish this."
"The creation of the Shottenstein Prize addresses two important goals. First, it greatly enhances the reputation of OSU on the international stage as an institution where world-class science is recognized and valued. Second, it will expose our students, trainees, and faculty to the luminaries in modern cardiovascular medicine. I am both grateful and proud that we have been afforded this wonderful opportunity."
In addition to their philanthropic endeavors, the Schottensteins are very involved in the central Ohio business community. An Ohio-based investor and business leader of national renown, Jay is chairman of several corporations, including Schottenstein Stores and American Eagle Outfitters. Both serve as directors or trustees of several non-profit organizations throughout the region.

JOHN CURTIS - Daily Union Sports Editor
Shelbyville volleyball finished their regular season just one win from a 20-win season, finishing 19-13, as a result of play at the Mt. Pulaski pre-postseason tourney on Saturday. Shebyville dropped the first three matches in pool play, then won the crossover match and the 5th place match to end on a higher note.
Shelbyville lost to Bloomington, 19-25, 16-25, lost to Edwards County, 25-27, 17-25, and lost to Illini Central, 18-25, 12-25.
This is always a tough tournament and a great way to prepare for the regional," said Ram coach Lisa Peifer. "We actually played well most of the day with the exception of the Illini Central match. We just couldn't get anything going consistently. We allowed ourselves to get out-hustled and out talked. I was hoping to get another shot at them and we did in the 5th place match."
In the crossover match, they played Roxana and buried them, 25-14, 25-13.
"Against Roxana, we kind of found a little comfort zone with the line-up," Coach Peifer said. "We had to pull Sammy due to an ankle injury and both Madison Boone and Rachel Fox did a great job. We played much better as the match went on and it carried into the Illini Central game."
The Rams then got to the 5th place game in a rematch against Illini Central. The Rams lost game 1, 17-25, then stormed back 25-23, 25-16.
"I hope we learned a few things before (regional) and can keep up the hard aggressive play against T'town."
Several Ram players made key contributions to their effort at Mt. Pulaski.
Setter Maggie Bosgraaf recorded a triple-double with a team-high 50 points, dishing 62 assists, and co-leading the team on defense with 17 digs. Brandy Smith had a quadruple-double with 49 points, a team-high 11 aces, 22 kills, 13 digs, and nine blocks.
Brooke Eisenbarth had a triple-double, serving 27 points with four aces, swinging for a team-high 37 kills, and co-leading the team with 17 digs. Sophomore Madison Boone had a quadruple-double with 27 points, 21 kills, 13 digs, and a team-high 11 blocks. Taylor Wilcox just missed a triple-double with 35 points, eight aces, and nine kills.

Let us tell you what the Dallas Cowboys do when they are favored - they lose.
And this business of losing when they should win goes back many years and it particularly awkward for Cowboys bettors when their team is on the road. It's cause for concern as they visit Carolina as 2.5-point favorites on the Week 7 NFL odds menu.
In their past 17 games as chalk, the Cowboys have covered the spread three times (3-13-1 ATS according to the NFL trends report at OddsShark.com).
hope to extend their winning streak over the Carolina Panthers to five this Sunday when they visit the Panthers at Bank of America Stadium. Dallas is a 2-point road favorite at
Dallas came out of their bye week with a strong effort in a 31-29 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, but while the Cowboys were able to cover the spread they couldn't pull off the outright upset. The loss brought Dallas to 2-3 SU and ATS, but there is some hope in Dallas that the Cowboys may not be as bad as their record indicates.
All five of their games have come against teams with strong defenses, and their three losses came to quality teams in Seattle, Chicago and Baltimore. Can the Cowboys put it all together on both sides of the ball in a winnable game this week?
Carolina has alternated great offensive performances with terrible ones through its first five games this season. The Panthers managed over 400 yards and 28+ points in games against Atlanta and New Orleans (going 1-1 SU and 2-0 ATS in that pair of games), but were held to 12 points or less in SU and ATS losses to Tampa Bay, New York, and Seattle.
Coming off of a bye week, the Panthers hope to have Cam Newton back on track and ready for a big second half of the season.
Neither of these teams has fared well against the spread recently. Dallas is 3-9 ATS in its last 12 games while Carolina is 2-5 both SU and ATS in its last seven home games. The Cowboys have enjoyed success against Carolina with an 8-1 SU and 5-3-1 ATS record over the Panthers in the last nine meetings between these two teams.
As the spread would indicate, this one is too close to call. Both teams (and quarterbacks) badly need this win. Considering Dallas's past success against Carolina and the fact that the Cowboys look a bit more well-rounded, we lean slightly towards them getting the job done on the road this week, in spite of their history as chalk chokers.
PICK: Dallas -2.5

---- — DANVERS — A nurse whose own recovery from surgery led to a painkiller addiction — and charges that she stole medications from elderly residents of an assisted-living facility last year — will be allowed to take part in a program aimed at treating drug offenders rather than simply punishing them.
On Friday, Salem Superior Court Judge Robert Cornetta signed off on Amy Martin's participation in a specialized treatment program for addicted nurses.
If she takes part in the program and stays out of further trouble, she can ask that her case be dismissed in 18 months, said her lawyer, Mark Barry.
Under a seldom-used provision in state law, Chapter 111E, people arrested on drug or drug-related charges can ask to be evaluated to determine whether they are drug-dependent.
If they are, they can ask a judge to delay prosecution of the case for the length of time they would have potentially had to serve, up to 18 months, while they take part in a treatment program.
Martin, 30, of Marblehead, was a nurse at the Brightview assisted-living facility on Endicott Street in Danvers when, last year, a relative of one resident noticed that the pills in her aunt's case looked different. Police used hidden cameras to catch Martin swapping generic Tylenol for Vicodin and oxycodone pills.
Her lawyer moved quickly to have Martin evaluated following her arraignment, and she began taking part in the program in March.
The program is called Nursing Substance Abuse Rehabilitation Program, or SARP, and it's run by the state Executive Office of Health and Human Services.
Martin will also have to complete the full, five-year SARP program in order to regain her nursing license.

NCDC Frequently Asked Questions
How is the average global temperature anomaly time series calculated?

The global time series is produced from the Smith and Reynolds blended land and ocean data set (Smith and Reynolds, 2005). This data set consists of monthly average temperature anomalies on a 5° x 5° grid across land and ocean surfaces. These grid boxes are then averaged to provide an average global temperature anomaly. An area-weighted scheme is used to reflect the reality that the boxes are smaller near the poles and larger near the equator. Global-average anomalies are calculated on a monthly and annual time scale. Average temperature anomalies are also available for land and ocean surfaces separately, and the Northern and Southern Hemispheres separately. The global and hemispheric anomalies are provided with respect to the period 1901-2000, the 20th century average.

Student Spotlight: Jess Lies
Jess Lies
Major: Architecture
Architecture has been a big part of Jess Lies' life ever since she was a little girl.
"My parents own an interior design firm," she said. "I remember several family dinners when napkins became the vellum for the latest project sketches."
Lies decided to attend College of DuPage because of its great transfer reputation with renowned architecture programs at four-year schools. This allowed her to finish the first two years of her degree with little to no debt.
"Also, due to the economic feasibility of COD's courses, I was able to in take advantage of a study abroad opportunity in Italy with my architecture teachers, seeing the architectural wonders I had learned about in class," she said.
Lies transferred to Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, where she is earning her bachelor's in architecture. After taking the Architecture Registration Exam (ARE) and interning, she would like to earn her license in Architecture. Her dream is to pursue her passion of architecture around the world where she can experience, live and work in many different cultures.
She credits College of DuPage's Architecture program and faculty for helping her meet her goals by providing the knowledge and skills require to continue her education and begin her career. She also received the help to build and develop an artistic portfolio, which is required to enter Architecture programs at many transfer schools.
"COD offers an amazing opportunity for high school students who are either unsure about what degree they want to pursue or for students who are interested in architecture and wish to build up a portfolio so they can then transfer," she said. I would suggest knowing your transfer options so you can follow the specific transfer curriculum from the time you start at COD.
"COD offers knowledgeable professors, direct contact with professionals and four-year school representatives, and a family environment where you get to know your professors and your classmates on a personal level."

I was unpacking this even as the UPS guy was pulling away from my curb and after giving the contents in the box a quick once over, I set the instructions aside, checked out the monitor, fished the plug from the box. Then I did the same with one of the cameras. I called my husband away from his computer, plugged in a camera, told him to hold it, then I went into the next room and plugged in the little color monitor. And what do you know; there he was smiling at me on the monitor. It was dead easy. No muss, no fuss, it just worked. Then all of a sudden my hubby vanished from the monitor and I got no signal. It took me about ten seconds to realize that it was switching to the second camera, which I hadn't set up. I pushed the menu button on the back of the monitor and figured out how to turn the camera off in another five seconds and I also learned that you can add two more cameras to the system for a total of four.
The camera works a treat in low light and the system does what it's supposed to do and it's so simple to set up even a non-techie older person like myself can figure it out. We set up the system, without ever taking the instructions out of their plastic baggie. This really is a hassle free system. We use it for monitoring our grandson's bedroom and my husband's workshop out in the garage, which works out well, because the cameras want electricity, which would be the only downer if you were setting them up outside to monitor your house, because you'd have to figure out how to get power to the cameras. We didn't have that problem. Gosh we just love having this system. I can't praise it enough.

I have to agree with the other 5 star reviews for this product. After surfing lots of reviews and debating on whether to go wired or wireless, especially after some horrible wireless fiascoes in the past, I decided to try this Lomax system. I had it up and running in minutes without looking at the manual but the real test, that being range/reception, was what I was worried about. Camera on one side of the house, receiver on the other, and no problems. Pictures are good, not high def, but acceptable and low light or dark performance is great. I have nothing to complain about. Like some others, I now want 2 more cameras and have ordered another complete system as individual cameras run about 140 from Amazon. A pair is only 20 dollars less than the whole system and having another receiver/monitor is going to be great. It makes a great bedside monitor and the video storage works great for later review. Buy this product. I don't think you will regret it.

I received the product today and had it up and running in under an hour. What took the longest was getting electricity to the number one camera. Once I had all that corrected the set up was fast. The pairing was simple and the instructions are easy to understand. I am happy with the purchase.
I bought this from Amazon two weeks ago and received the package a few days later. I set it up right away. For $300, both cameras worked with receiver perfectly. The quality of image may not be the best during the day, but the night vision (you got to see it to believe it), sensor, recording when sensor tripped (or recording all the time) and alarm certainly make up for it. I live in a 3 story townhouse. I have no problem with signal reception. My mother is over 70 years old and she wants one after playing with my cameras 15 minutes in my house. I would recommend it.

This is a great deal for the price and is easy to set up and use it has many great features like motion detection. You can use it as an intercom as well; I would suggest getting a bigger SD card for it. This nifty little video surveillance system will provide adequate security and a peace of mind for home or even your business. The quality and reception is very good. I would recommend this system!

We are using these cameras in our Church for security monitoring. They work just as advertised, but don't expect features that are not promised. For example, the cameras cannot dump the video data directly to a computer on the network. In fact, the cameras do not communicate on a normal 802.11-based network. They communicate with the viewer panel and the video is recorded on memory sticks there.
However, with sufficient storage space, you can enable motion detection and then simply dump the video files once each week. Based on the promise of the products, I'm very happy with the results.

The clarity of the recorder is just great. We have 2 cats so I can tell you, small animals do not trigger the motion recorder. This is my second set I use one for the house and one for the garage. Night vision is excellent. There is a zoom feature that will give you more detail. I highly recommend this system. Easy install. You need to have an outlet to plug the cameras and monitors into (no batteries).
Pearl City, Hawaii
Location: Hawaii
I installed this at my aunt's house because she is the only one living there. She locks herself in her room at night once she sets her alarm. She would get people at her front door, but was too afraid to go and check. Now with this system, she can see who it is and converse with them through the intercom feature.
It was super easy to install, however, the power cords for the camera is really short (5 feet). I had to splice 23g wire to them and make them about 20 feet. Overall a very simple solution, considering I had to do the same to my previous camera system for my house. I hope this helps someone out!
Grandpa Chick
This product works just like it is advertised. Easy to install, easy to operate and it's easy to understand the instructions. Works good in the dark as well as in the light. I would definitely recommend this to friends.
Moetaz Thabet
I usually do not write reviews for products but I was very impressed with this one. I had tried several wireless camera solutions but they failed miserably, range was always the issue. This device had everything I was looking for.
1. Great range - my house is built from reinforced concrete. The cameras work perfectly up to a distance of 15 meters through at least 3 walls.
2. Setting it up is super simple. Just plug them in and all is set to go.
3. Very easy to use the video frame
4. Talk back function is a very useful adds on.
5. Good video quality
6. Good night vision
7. The material of both the cameras and the frame are very good.
8. A/V out feature is great if you want to connect it to an external monitor
9. Super compact photo frame like LCD
I would strongly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a wireless solution that actually works. I have only had it for a few weeks now and it is working fine. I will make sure to update this review if anything changes.
I have had the LW2702 for a month now and very pleased with its performance. I live in a duplex and the cameras are just outside my front and back doors approximately 60 to 80 feet from the receiver. The video and audio reception is very good. Although I didn't need the audio portion I can hear my neighbor's conversations when they are on the back porch. The motion detection portion of the system works as expected. I've had a few false triggers, one when the sun was hitting the bushes close to the front door with a little breeze moving them. Not sure what the others were unless it was a close flying moth because nothing showed up on the recording when viewed. It has added a little more comfort for my wife when sleeping. The monitor has a indicator that reads "New" that shows if motion has been picked up and recorded along with an audible alarm. Once viewed the indicator is turned off.
I purchased this system because of the reviews it got. Other system of this caliber didn't seem to hold up. Here's my list of things I like about it. Very easy to set up, picture quality is good, motion detection and recording as expected along with night vision, and no interference with other systems using the same frequency. There is only one thing I can think of that would have been nice and that is a wider view for the camera. Because you are limited on the power cable length, the cameras have to be mounted close to an outlet. This makes it hard to configure a wide view of the area you want. To solve this problem I made a 25 foot extension power cord. I'm thinking of getting one more of these to have a four camera system and using the extra monitor in the living room. The other monitor is on my wife's night stand. Hope this has been helpful.
I received my Lorex from Amazon very quickly and after take out the box I finished
the installation in a few minutes. The installation is very simple, only you will need is an electrical point (100-240VAC) for power supply to cameras and LCD display. The record motion feature work fine and save memory space in SDHC card. The video quality is good enough for the purpose of the system. I'm using the 2-way Intercom and its working fine, the sound is clear not too loud but enough. The range of the signal 2.4GHz is good; it can pass through my brick walls of my house with no loss for about 60-75 foot. The night vision of cameras is good; the cameras have a LDR sensor to light infra-red LEDs only in the night. It's a very good system and I'm very happy, my house is safer now.
I bought the set with 2 cameras plus one extra camera.
Very good price with good performance.
I put one in front of the entrance, one facing backyard and one facing garage.
Quality at night is pretty good.
But you have to think where to plug into your electric outlet.
Jim "gr8trader"
Location: Magnolia, TX
I purchased this system 2 weeks ago. No wonder it was awarded the 2010 Innovations International CES! If you are ok with wireless and have the outlets in place to power the cameras, then you can't do better than this system. I had to get one ACCANTD9 Wireless range extender for one camera since it was a little too far away from the receiver/monitor. It was the quickest and simplest to set-up than any other I've ever owned...up and running in under 15 minutes! Signal from all cameras is good and reliable. Motion detection works very well. Color video is good and detailed. Infrared night vision is great! 2GB SD card has plenty of recording space, but accommodates up to 16GB if needed. Playback, deleting and formatting quick and easy with the remote! The 7" monitor may be small for some users, but is just right for me because I placed it on top of my desktop tower, so it doesn't use up any desktop space. It also interfaces with my flat screen LCD TV and/or PC monitor if I want to view video on a larger screen.
Product works as advertised. I am totally pleased with this purchase. I have had two other systems which cost more and did not work nearly this well. I sent one of those systems back and trashed the other one. I plan on getting the Lorex LIVE SD7 as gifts for my grown children.

Ok, so it was really easy to set up once you figured out the methodology.
Not the clearest set of directions ever written.
Very nice hardware but don't expect to read a license plate at 30 yards.
The same device, installed by a security company would have cost me $2700 . . . NO FOOLING!
I'd say it was a deal!

---- — PEABODY — Because of a horse according to City Councilor Barry Sinowitz.
"Someone on Winona Street," he told his fellow councilors last week, "has a horse. Someone has been riding a horse up and down Winona Street."
While not opposed to horses in Peabody, Sinowitz thinks drivers and others ought to be forewarned when it comes four footed traffic. He suggested the need for "a sign on Winona Street. Saying I don't know. Caution? Horse."
It was a moment for council president
Jim Liacos to recover, observing, "That's a first."
To tell the truth
It just doesn't happen that often. While selling the City Council on the advantages of allowing his company to put wires on city owned power poles, Steve Bond of Bay Ring Communications stressed the benefits, including increased competition perhaps leading to better service and better prices for companies and consumers seeking Internet access and cable television.
But when a councilor suggested that Bay Ring's mission was to "increase the speed of the Internet," Bond didn't mince words. "Our goal is to make money." To make money, he indicated, requires providing all those good things.
Hiring the person who does the hiring
Karen Budrow is the new director of human resources at City Hall. She worked previously in Chelsea, Methuen, Everett and Gloucester.
"Karen comes to us with a stellar reputation as a skilled and capable professional," said Mayor
Ted Bettencourt in a written statement. "I am particularly impressed by her eagerness to take on some of the new challenges which this position in Peabody will entail."
There's was a suggestion previously that one of those challenges might be handling personnel for the school department as well. But there's time to figure that out as Budrow starts on Oct. 29.
Red Sox rock, believe it or not
Well, somebody will have happy memories of this season at Fenway Park. The Red Sox may have flopped on the diamond, but romance continued to triumph. A Peabody pair managed to win a diamond in a competition with 250 other couples at the park on Sept. 30.
And yes, the Sox lost to the Orioles that day.
No matter, Amanda and Mike Kachinski won the glittering rock, valued at $20,000 according to sponsor Hearts on Fire, in the diamond hunt. The contest involved a game of trivia — heavy on questions about the Red Sox — producing finalists, eight couples. They went on to compete in "skill challenges and a scavenger hunt."
Get ready to swing those arms
The YMCA salutes the late Mayor Peter Torigian and Fran McCormack for remembering to reinforce the roof when building the Torigian YMCA in 2006. Thinking ahead and donations including a $75,000 commitment from the Danversbank Charitable Foundation is allowing construction that will increase the size of the building by 5,000 square feet.
Donations also came from Brian Kelly and Kelly Automotive Inc., the Maccarthy Family Foundation, Rousselot Inc., Eastern Bank Charitable Foundation, North Shore Bank, Analogic, Metro Cleaning and lots of people as well. (For that matter People's United Bank took over Danversbank in 2011.)
Big bang theory
The Boulderwood project in South Peabody proceeds, according to City Councilor Barry Osborne. He told his colleagues of being onsite recently during blasting. No word on if the earth moved. "They've got the Lynn side of the power lines just about done," he said.
That means efforts to prepare the ground for the massive home building project on the Peabody side is about to begin. Osborne added that he's asked developer David Solimine for a meeting on Oct. 25.

The Houston Texans had a terrific season in 2011 that sent them to their first postseason berth and first postseason victory in team history, both of which they were able to accomplish with a roster impacted by injuries throughout the year. They'll hope to improve on that performance next year. They'll also be hoping that impending free agent linebacker Mario Williams will be a part of the team when 2012 kicks off.
John McClain at The Houston Chronicle's Ultimate Texans blog reports that Williams is aware of the deep market for a talented linebacker this offseason, as well as the fact that he might be at the top of many teams' wish lists for their roster in 2012.
I'm not worried about that. It's really not that big of a deal to me. I was the first pick (in 2006), and I've already had everything I really wanted, so my biggest thing is to be in a good position, a good scheme, a good system and continuing my career. Hopefully, it works out.
It's always important to be in a position to be successful. That comes with teammates around you, coaching, having that winning attitude. You want to (play) where you can thrive no matter where you are.
Williams went on to say that he loves being in Houston, but his final decision will ultimately come down to what makes the most sense, business-wise. For their part, the Texans will hope to free up enough cap room to make Williams a competitive offer. They will not be able to afford a franchise tag for Williams, which would run them about $22.9 million.
For more on the Houston Texans offseason, keep up with Battle Red Blog.

Payday Loans
Pros And Cons For Pay Day Loans
When many people think about a pay day loan, they frequently think about financing that's full of high rates of interest that will kill them financially. Although this can be for many loan companies, you need to realize that likely to advantage and problem with all things in existence.
To interrupt things lower, let us explore the benefits and drawbacks of pay day loans.
First, let us dissect the pay day loans disadvantages:
More often than not, your payday loans will have rates of interest that may achieve in to the triple figures. Understandably, a $100 loan could rapidly become greater than $1,000 in the lifetime.
Regrettably, you will find lots of loan companies available that could make the most of your funds. For this reason it is so essential that you should research the organization before using for a financial loan. In case your stomach is providing you with a poor vibe, it might be better to apply with another person.
Among the greatest pay day loans disadvantages would be the restrictions they set. A lot of companies only allow candidates to try to get financial loans as much as $1,000. So should you prefer a loan that's greater than $1,000, you might have a difficult time finding one, particularly if you have a bad credit score.
Now, let us start the benefits of pay day loans:
In case your vehicle would break lower or else you needed $ 100 to maintain your warmth on, among the only ways you can get money rapidly is as simple as using for any pay day loans. Regardless of whether you make an application for pay day loans online or personally, most loan companies can enable you to get financing inside an hour.
A Bad Credit Score
Among the greatest benefits of pay day loans are they focus on individuals with a bad credit score. Since much of your banks frown upon individuals having a bad credit rating, nearly anybody having a valid identification and steady earnings can use with many pay day loan loan companies.
Before using for pay day loans online or personally, just make certain that guess what happens you are setting yourself up for. Make sure to browse the small print, comprehend the interest and also the terms. Now you be aware of benefits and drawbacks, you are able to hopefully obtain a loan with full confidence.

For the past decade, Michael Maddox has helped raise thousands of dollars for the Georgia Health Sciences Children's Medical Center. Michael's inspiration comes from a special place in his heart
Over the past 10 years, we've really grown. We started out with 60 bikes and we've grown to 250-300 bikes every year now," says Maddox.
Michael spearheads the second largest motorcycle ride in Georgia. The Kelsi Long Memorial Ride is dedicated to a special little angel.
Kelsi is my granddaughter and she was still born at 8-and-a-half months, due to Down Syndrome. Shortly after that, we were doing charity rides and stuff and one day, the Lord just laid it on my heart and say we needed to do that mainly to help kids and help young parents that go through something like that just to keep Kelsi's memory alive and going," he says.
"Kelsi was a blessing to our family...gone too soon. At the time it happened, we can't help question why. Ten years later, $80,000 later...we are starting to see there is a greater plan than ours. Obviously, our sacrifice has led to the blessing of several other families. Hundreds of kids that have been helped through the hospital," says Michael's daughter, Kelly Usry.
While the Kelsi Long Memorial Ride is Michael's creation, he knows that he could not organize a project of this magnitude on his own. "I stay on the road all the time. I leave Sunday and come back Thursday. I thank God for cell phones. Volunteers and our family works on this also and they are making phone calls and writing letters and stuff like that. It's a family and group effort. It's not just me, there's a whole group of people behind me that take of things for me," he says.
"There's many, many staff behind us that do the work and it was a collective decision that we nominate him for the Giving Your Best Award. Working with my Daddy is awesome. I've always been a Daddy's girl. I already think he's the greatest Daddy ever," says Kelly.
