Five Poems From "Helen: A Revision"
Nothing is known about Helen but her voice
Strange glittering sparks
Lighting no fires but what is reechoed
Rechorded, set on the icy sea.
All history is one, as all the North Pole is one
Magnetic, music to play with, ice
That has had to do with vision
And each one of us, naked.
Partners. Naked.
* * *
Helen: A Revision
ZEUS: It is to be assumed that I do not exist while most people in the vision assume that I do exist. This is to be one of the extents of meaning between the players and the audience. I have to talk like this because I am the lord of both kinds of sky—and I don't mean your sky and their sky because they are signs, I mean the bright sky and the burning sky. I have no intention of showing you my limits. The players in this poem are players. They have taken their parts not to deceive you [or me for that matter] but because they have been paid in love or coin to be players. I have known for a long time that there is not a fourth wall in a play. I am called Zeus and I know this.
THERSITES: [Running out on the construction of the stage.] The fourth wall is not as important as you think it is.
ZEUS: [Disturbed but carrying it off like a good Master of Ceremonial.] Thersites is involuntary. [He puts his arm around him.] I could not play a part if I were not a player.
THERSITES: Reveal yourself to me and don't pretend that there are people watching you. I am alone on the stage with you. Tell me the plot of the play.
ZEUS: [Standing away.] Don't try to talk if you don't have to. You must admit there is no audience. Everything is done for you.
THERSITES: Stop repeating yourself. You old motherfucker. Your skies are bad enough. [He looks to the ground.] A parody is better than a pun.
ZEUS: I do not understand your language.
[They are silent together for a moment and then the curtain drops.]
* * *
And if he dies on this road throw wild blackberries at his ghost
And if he doesn't, and he won't, hope the cost
Hope the cost.
And the tenor of the what meets the why at the edge
Like a backwards image of each terror's lodge
Each terror's lodge.
And if he cries put his heart out with a lantern's goat
Where they say all passages to pay the debt
The lighted yet.
* * *
The focus sing
Is not their business. Their backs lay
By not altogether being there.
Here and there in swamps and villages.
How doth the silly crocodile
Amuse the Muse
* * *
And in the skyey march of flesh
That boundary line where no body is
Preserve us, lord, from aches and harms
And bring my death.
Both air and water rattle there
And mud and fire
Preserve us, lord, from what would share a shroud
and bring my death.
A vagrant bird flies to the glossy limbs
The battlefield has harms. The trees have half
Their branches shot away. Preserve us, lord
From hair and mud and flesh.

Man cannot live without love. He remains a being that is incomprehensible for himself, his life is senseless, if love is not revealed to him, if he does not encounter love, if he does not experience it and make it his own, if he does not participate intimately in it. This, as has already been said, is why Christ the Redeemer fully reveals man to himself (John Paul II)

CHESAPEAKE, VA. (Catholic Online) - Thursday, February 14, 2012, is Valentine's Day. It is one of the most popular of our predominantly secular holidays in the West. Before you assume I am going to join in the critiques of the holiday in some Christian circles by decrying its commercialism, or assume I will try to find some way of confirming the existence of a verifiable St Valentine in order to situate the day within a religious message, please read on. .
Who knows? Maybe there really was a St Valentine.The various accounts point in that direction. Maybe attempting to give that kind of a religious ground to the day through hagiography has merit. And, maybe there is value to critiquing the commercialism which has accompanied the day. However, it seems quite apropos in a culture being suffocated by a materialist ethic precisely because it has lost its soul and forgotten God.
My effort in this article is to take an entirely different approach. I want to suggest that Valentine's day is a cultural barometer and an invitation to mission.
My beloved wife of thirty seven years, best friend, mother of our five children and "Mimi" to our six grandchildren, has a birthday on February 13th. So, I regularly find myself in a card store in the midst of the frenzied crowd searching for Valentines cards every year. I always get one, along with the Birthday cards, and this year was no different. What was different was the massive size of the crowd and the fact that these two days also fell at the beginning of an early Lent.
I have been a Deacon of the Catholic Church for seventeen years and this liturgical season has become a special time for reflection, repentance and deep examination of conscience. This year, my experience of the size of the crowd encouraged more than irritated me. I saw men and women who are hungering to express their love. It brought to mind these words from Blessed John Paul's first Encyclical Letter, the Redeemer of Man:
"Man cannot live without love. He remains a being that is incomprehensible for himself, his life is senseless, if love is not revealed to him, if he does not encounter love, if he does not experience it and make it his own, if he does not participate intimately in it. This, as has already been said, is why Christ the Redeemer "fully reveals man to himself". (Gaudium et Spes, 22)
"If we may use the expression, this is the human dimension of the mystery of the Redemption. In this dimension man finds again the greatness, dignity and value that belong to his humanity. In the mystery of the Redemption man becomes newly "expressed" and, in a way, is newly created. He is newly created!"
The truth is that we were all created out of love and for love. We came into being as a great creative act of Love. The God who is Love, a Trinitarian communion of perfect love in perfect unity, fashioned us in His Image and invited us to respond in love. Redemption is a re-creation in Jesus Christ, who is Love Incarnate. The beloved disciple John who wrote the most cited words of the Gospel which bears his name, "God so loved the world that he sent His only Son" (John 3:16) also wrote in his beautiful first epistle that God is Love and he who lives in love lives in God, and God in Him" ( 1 John 4:16)
The New Testament was written in Greek, a language which has several words to speak of different kinds of love; the love between husband and wife; the love between family members; the love between friends; and the Love of the God. It also has a word to describe the greatest act of Love, the condescension of love, the great self emptying love of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, English does not.
However, all human love participates in and is perfected by God's love. In other words, the very need for love is a need for God. It is written into our spiritual genetic code. Our very hunger for love is meant to draw us back to the One who is the Source, the goal and the fulfillment of all love.
So, on this Valentine's Day, I suggest the fact that the Holiday seems to be growing in popularity is a form of cultural barometer. It shows us that no matter how secularized the culture has become, the hunger for love is an invitation to live the message of the fullness of God's Love in a visible, compelling and attractive way. This age is populated by men and women who are primed for the Gospel precisely because they are so parched for the fullness of love we have to offer.
I further suggest that, as with past missionary ages, we reconsider the haranguing concerning Valentine's Day and "baptize" it. A proper approach to inculturation invites us to consider how this secular holiday can be Christianized. How can it be used as a part of our missionary approach at the beginning of the Third millennium? I do not believe we live in a post Christian West. Rather, we live in a Pre-Christian West. The huge crowds in that card store reveal the field which is ripe for the harvest.

Infamous fan at last Nebraska-NU tilt
Northwestern athletic director Jim Phillips isn't one to bring attention to Chicago's criminal past, but he can't ignore the fact Al Capone attended the previous meeting between the Wildcats and the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Evanston, Ill., on Oct. 3, 1931, three days prior to Capone going to trial on charges of tax evasion.
ESPNChicago.com Colleges blog
The latest news and notes on the local college scene. Blog
"I did not know about that until someone brought it to my attention," Phillips said while laughing. "In Chicago's history, there's good and bad. We're just excited to welcome Nebraska back to Ryan Field and Evanston."
The Associated Press reported Oct. 3, 1931, that "Forty thousand persons gave 'Scarface Al' Capone the 'Bronx Cheer' Saturday at Northwestern university's Dyche stadium in Evanston.
"The gang leader, accompanied by 'Machine-gun Jack' McGurn and several henchmen, was jeered and hooted by the vast throng attending the Northwestern-Nebraska football game when he arose and departed at the end of the third period.
"Capone and his party occupied in the 45th row and were targets for an intermittent chorus of throaty jeers and boos all during the game. When he and his friends rose from their seats at the end of the third period, the chorus became a might crescendo that swept over the huge stadium.
"The Capone party walked hurriedly and apparently somewhat abashed to the nearest exit."
Shortly after watching part of what turned out to be a 19-7 Northwestern win, Capone was found guilty Oct. 17, 1931, and was given an 11-year sentence Nov. 24.
Northwestern and Nebraska will meet for the sixth time Saturday. Last season, the Wildcats upset Nebraska in Lincoln, Neb. The Cornhuskers own a 3-2 lead in the series.

Dear all,
Bit of a complicated question, but I will try to make it as clear as possible.
I have been involved in trying to get an unauthorised farm building (class 6 cattle shed and class 8 silage pit) removed. After much dragging of heels by the Council they have agreed that the structure contravenes the Planning and Development Act. However, they have said that under the Planning and Development Regulations (2001) there are exemptions for these Class of structures if they are under 200 sq m. The shed is 300 sq m and the silage pit 250 sq m, so the Council says that the owner may simply reduce the size of the structures to under 200 sq m rather than remove them completely. In the mean time, the owner of the structures has built new farm sheds very close to the existing unauthorised ones (these new ones got full planning permission).
Does this mean the old cattle shed and silage pit if reduced to 200 sq m would no longer be exempt under the 2001 regs as they are effectively new structures within 100m of existing buildings? And would this mean they would then need planning permission?
Very grateful for any help!

When the U.S. Air Force needed a new secure satellite communications system, one company was able to show up at the starting line with an 80 percent solution based on an existing product line serving the Army and the Navy.
The U.S. Defense Department is failing to invest in game-changing technology that could increase efficiencies and save lives, according to a just-released report from the Center for a New American Security, which also recommends funding more battlefield drones.
The U.S. Air Force is continuously broadcasting L2C and L5 civilian GPS signals. Though the changes make little immediate difference to the general population, the makers of GPS devices will use them to develop next-generation devices.
Cybersecurity remains a priority for the U.S. Defense Department, with officials protecting resources for it in the face of overall budget constraints. Guidance from the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 directs a mission analysis of cybercapabilities not only in the active military, but also across partners, to help forces maintain their edge in protecting the nation.
The U.S. Air Force networking that links its air assets has extended its reach into the rest of the service and the joint realm as it moves a greater variety of information among warfighters and decision makers. This builds on existing networking efforts, but it also seeks to change longtime acquisition habits that have been detrimental to industry—and, by connection, to the goal of speeding innovative capabilities to the warfighter.
The Air Force has broadened some of its research to apply to other networks such as the Joint Information Environment (JIE). One vital effort is the Battlefield Airborne Communications Node, or BACN. It provides airborne links aboard crewed and unmanned aircraft, and future iterations may take the form of pods attached to combat aircraft. Other networks and capabilities are being developed or expanded.
This method is in line with the overall Defense Department approach to networking. "We're starting to think much more 'system of systems,' but we need to graduate to 'enterprise of enterprises,'" says Dr. Tim Rudolph, chief technology officer (CTO) at the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center. "It is that much of an integration of different features of different platforms."
Rudolph also supports the Program Executive Officer (PEO) Command, Control, Communications, Intelligence and Networks (C3I&N) as CTO and chief architect, and he is a senior leader/technical adviser for integrated information capabilities. He explains that networking air assets includes domains such as terrestrial, space and cyber.
"Networking is like plumbing," Rudolph analogizes. "Most people don't hire plumbers because they like cast iron or copper [pipes]; they do it because they want to move something through the pipes." The Joint Aerial Layer Network (SIGNAL Magazine, June 2013, page 52, "Joint Aerial Layer…") provides a construct that allows a great deal of interoperability among assets in various domains, he observes.
A critical U.S. Air Force program designed to refurbish the service's operations centers around the world likely will begin by upgrading the first site next year. The potential $504 million effort will automate services, improve interoperability, speed decision making, enhance cybersecurity and lower costs.
Air operations centers are the command and control centers for planning, executing and assessing joint air operations during a contingency or conflict. They support joint force air component commanders in planning and executing missions.
Those centers have been equipped with an operational baseline known as 10.1. With 10.2, the Air Operations Center Weapon System (AOC WS) modernization program is poised to better integrate data from more than 45 systems and applications that feed data into the centers. The upcoming improvements will facilitate machine-to-machine data transfer, allowing commanders to make decisions more quickly while reducing human error.
Lt. Col. Kyle Reybitz, USAF, AOC WS program manager, paints a somewhat hectic picture of contemporary AOCs. Because the various systems are not fully integrated, people call out to request targeting data, or they hand-deliver data. "Our putting together a common infrastructure allows these systems to be better integrated and share the data more securely. Ultimately, that results in speed of command. We get data in there; we can process it much faster; and we can have quicker actual plans on the battlefield as determined by the joint forces air combat commander," Col. Reybitz states.
The U.S. Air Force is emerging from almost 13 years of conflict in the Middle East with a different perspective on its intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. Lessons learned from those battlefields are leading to new directions that will entail abandoning traditional approaches and methods.
Recent operations have demonstrated the importance of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) to coalition partners. As the missions wind down, officials in charge of such activities are focusing on a reset, determining what adjustments to make to keep the capabilities relevant moving forward. The Air Force has no plans to stop providing services across the military, though what that means with a smaller force in different environments remains to be seen.
Throughout the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, capabilities from various sensors became available at continually lower echelons even as support remained intact to the highest levels within the United States. Officials in the ISR community have learned to better integrate platforms, sensors, the network and the enterprise. The advent of the Joint Information Environment encompasses part of that effort, as the military creates a single, secure information-sharing environment across its branches.
Maj. Gen. Jack Shanahan, USAF, commander, Air Force ISR Agency, says the war in Afghanistan will be remembered as an ISR war as much as anything else. Incredible ISR capabilities were fielded to Iraq and Afghanistan during the past 12 to 13 years, but not all of them will transfer to the military of the future. Others will be revamped for a different fight. Some capabilities coming out of Afghanistan, for example, will be as important in new locations, but for different reasons, Gen. Shanahan states.
U.S. Air Force officials are working to replace by 2019 aging command and control terminals that are part of the U.S. Air Force's nuclear bomber mission. The new terminals will communicate with advanced satellite constellations and also will add capabilities not in current systems.
The Global Aircrew Strategic Network Terminal (Global ASNT—pronounced global assent) is a ground-based, three-increment program that provides persistent, survivable and redundant command and control (C2) communications to the U.S. Air Force strategic bomber fleet. The terminals also provide a C2 capability for the tankers and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft supporting the nuclear bomber mission. It is a part of the Minimum Essential Emergency Communications Network (MEECN) that passes messages from national command authorities—the president and senior leaders—to nuclear forces.
The program will provide 45 fixed communication terminals for sites such as wing command posts, along with 45 transportable terminals to support dispersed operations. The first increment of the program will provide advanced extremely high frequency (AEHF) communications compatible with the new AEHF satellite constellation and will replace legacy Military Strategic Tactical Relay (MILSTAR)-compatible terminals. The AEHF constellation will be the military's primary satellite system for highly protected communications following the launch of the fourth and final satellite in 2017.
The new AEHF terminals are required because of projected end-of-life issues with the MILSTAR satellite constellation and looming obsolescence of the currently fielded terminals. "It replaces unsustainable legacy systems. Some of the systems it replaces are getting toward the end of their life cycle, and they're difficult to maintain," says Lt. Col. Kenneth Decker, USAF, Global ASNT program manager. "It's like when your car gets to the point where it costs too much to maintain it."
The Defense Department drive toward its Joint Information Environment is picking up speed as it progresses toward its goal of assimilating military networks across the warfighting realm. Individual services are developing solutions, some of which are targeted for their own requirements, that are being applied to the overarching goal of linking the entire defense environment.
Early successes in Europe have advanced Joint Information Environment (JIE) efforts elsewhere, including the continental United States. Some activities have been accelerated as a result of lessons learned, and they have been implemented ahead of schedule in regions not slated to receive them for months or even years.
However, significant hurdles remain, and not all participants are equally supportive of the effort. Overcoming major cultural challenges may be the most difficult task facing JIE implementation. And, the omnipresent budget constraints facing the entire Defense Department may extend into the JIE, even though it is not officially a program of record.
Senior Defense Department leaders do not hesitate to emphasize the importance of the JIE to future military operations. David DeVries, deputy Defense Department chief information officer (CIO) for information enterprise, describes the JIE as a unifying effort to do "the largest wholesale information technology modernization in the history of the department."
Lt. Gen. Ronnie D. Hawkins Jr., USAF, director, Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), avows, "The next type of enterprise that our Defense Department will be postured to utilize in the next conflict—be it kinetic or nonkinetic—the JIE will be an integral part of that environment."
The U.S. Air Force is using big data analysis tools to create a picture of a battlefield or area of interest that can be monitored in real time as well as stored and replayed. By merging sensor streams with data tagging and trend detection software, this capability will allow analysts and warfighters to observe, track and potentially predict enemy force operations based on their observed behavior.

Atlanta City Council to consider 52% pay raise on Monday
Send this story to a friend
- Carla Caldwell, Morning Call Editor
Members of the Atlanta City Council will discuss Monday whether to award themselves a 52 percent pay raise.
A citizen's committee has recommended the raise. The committee said the raise would bring the council's pay up to something more suitable for a full-time job rather than a part-time job – and would bring the council's pay in line with those of other cities Atlanta's size.
The raise would take the council's pay from $39,000 a year to $69,000 a year, according to Atlanta Business Chronicle broadcast partner WXIA-TV.
Councilman Ivory Young told WXIA that he supports the raise. He said council members' offices get 40 to 50 complaints each day and that the offices work hard to follow up.
Councilman Kwanza Hall told the station he is not inclined to support the increase "during this economic climate.'
The council declined a pay raise four years ago, WXIA said.
Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed has said he will decline a raise if the council votes to give him one.
The meeting starts Monday at 1 p.m.

Step 2: Design
The inspiration for this article comes from DJ TechTools ' MIDI Fighter , specifically the grid layout of arcade buttons. The use of arcade buttons appeals to me as they are nice and large, and don't feel mushy unlike some rubberised buttons.
So with that in mind, let's begin the design. It helps to use some sort of diagramming software to aid in the design process such as Microsoft Visio or the open source Dia . This will help in terms of component dimensions and scale so you know everything will fit.
Design Considerations
When designing your MIDI controller, remember that an Arduino only has 6 analogue inputs for knobs/sliders and 12 digital inputs for buttons/switches (technically it has 14, but two of those will be used for serial communications to the computer). The analogue inputs can also double as digital inputs so you could have up to 18 buttons on your design, or 17 buttons and 1 slider, or 16 buttons and 2 sliders, etc down to 12 buttons and 6 sliders.
Also try to find the dimensions of all of the components you wish to use so you have a good idea of what will and won't fit, and the clearance you'll need to give each component. For example the sliding potentiometers I've chosen have a travel length of 60mm, but then there's the extra clearance required on either side of the slider for the slider knob.
More analogue and digital inputs could be used with the aid of shift registers, multiplexers, or extra microcontrollers, but that is beyond the scope of this article.
Design 1
I initially wanted to make a copy of the MIDI Fighter, so I drew up a basic 4 x 4 grid of arcade buttons based on the arcade button's dimensions (27mm total diameter, 24mm mounting hole). Although it looked kinda cool, I also wanted some analogue inputs such as knobs and faders. I also didn't want to go through the hassle of cutting my own acrylic to make the case. So I decided then I'd find a plastic enclosure to house the controls and base the design around those dimensions.
Design 2
After a bit of hunting around for different enclosures, I eventually settled on this keyboard enclosure . Its dimensions are 189mm x 134mm, with a sloping height from 32mm up to 54.7mm. When choosing your enclosure make sure that your components are going to fit inside it. The mounting depth for the arcade buttons is exactly 32mm, so they will fit in the enclosure I've chosen.
Given this enclosure isn't square, I went for a 5 x 3 button arrangement and squeezed in a couple of sliding potentiometers up the top. When working out how to place the sliders, make sure to leave enough room for movement of the slider knob so it doesn't hit any other components. You'll have to find out the dimensions of the slider knob you wish to use so you can accurately place the slider. As the enclosure is higher at the back it also provides room to mount the Arduino clone underneath the buttons and sliders.
At this stage I'd recommend printing out a 1:1 sized copy of the design to ensure the layout feels natural, and all of the components are easily reachable. My design felt good, but I felt like I was wasting the Arduino's six analogue inputs with only two sliders.
Final Design 1
For the final design I removed the left most column of buttons and replaced it with a column of four rotary potentiometers, so now all six analogue inputs will be used. I also packed the components a bit more tightly together so they'd fit within the recess on the front panel.
Once you're happy with your design, go ahead and order the necessary components. Remember to check the knobs you've chosen will actually fit the sliding/rotary potentiometers. Some rotary knobs are designed for a 'D' type shaft, while others are designed for shaft with 18 teeth, while others simply screw onto the shaft.
Final Design 2
After about a week all of the components arrived, but I immediately noticed the sliders were too long (the dimensions on the datasheet were incorrect so I thought they were shorter). So rather than going through the hassle of exchanging them, I tweaked the design and swapped the sliders and rotary potentiometers around. I also measured the dimensions of the enclosure recess to ensure everything fit correctly.

Joe and John Lunsford wanted to find a way to extend the life of carpets, which often showed their age through stains and discoloration, so they turned to their chemist mother, Jean Beason, for guidance. Her system of on-location carpet dying—which she perfected during years of research, development, and carefully planned carpet-store heists—eventually led them to start Professional Carpet Systems in 1978.
As the Lunsford's startup grew to 75 locations worldwide, they switched their focus to carpet cleaning, using pH-balanced rinsing agents and a rapid-drying system. Now, the IICRC-certified firm also offers spot and odor removal, upholstery cleaning, and allergy-relief treatments backed by a 200% guarantee: if the customer isn't satisfied with the treatment, Professional Carpet Systems will issue a full refund and pay for re-cleaning by a different company.
Air Conditioning Systems, Inc.'s proprietor and indoor climate-control specialist, Robert Akins, retools vital household equipment with the confidence and aptitude he acquired from more than 30 years of professional experience. During a tune-up, talented technicians inspect and clean all aspects of air conditioners, heat pumps, and furnaces, prolonging the systems' lives and catching any mechanical problems before they cause expensive breakdowns or devastating space-time rifts. The fully licensed and bonded HVAC-inspectors courteously complete their tasks in a mere half-hour and also provide free equipment replacement estimates, second opinions, and diagnoses for repairs. In addition to ensuring long-term thermal comfort with extensive check-ups, Air Conditioning Systems' skilled personnel arrive equipped with freon and most standard parts in case they need to make additional repairs or compete in impromptu science fairs.
Bedzzz Express facilitates the best night's sleep possible by taking inventory of customers' sleeping habits to help them choose the perfect mattress. President Keith Krininger credits this practice with Bedzzz Express success, which has resulted in 32 store locations sprinkled across three states. In the showroom, models from Sealy, Serta, and Simmons cushion bodies at rest with a range of comfortable materials including foam and pillow tops that help lull customers to sleep. Mattresses and mattress sets are available in twin, full, queen, and king sizes and can be delivered locally.
Mattress King's wide selection of mattresses from well-known brands such as Sealy Posturepedic, Embody, and Stearns & Foster run the firmness and texture gamut, giving sleepers of all shapes and sizes a shot at a good night's rest. Sealy's Posturepedic queen-sized Spirited supports dreamers with a comfortable durability ($409 for the mattress, $699 for the set). Dozers with a penchant for luxurious expediency snooze on the Stearns & Foster Bradenburg queen-sized bed, which lends backsides a plush surface and a patient ear as they complain about lousy desk chairs ($719 for the mattress, $1,169.10 for the set), or opt to bounce to another to decide which size fits the mold.

The Bellator 106 lineup is complete.
With just three weeks to go before Bellator makes its first trip into the PPV market, MMA Junkie has confirmed that long time veteran of the sport Karo Parisyan will take on two-time Bellator fighter Cristiano Souza. The fight will take place on the Spike TV televised preliminary card, which will also feature the Fight Master final between Mike Bronzoulis and Joe Riggs.
Parisyan (22-10) fought fellow judoka Rick Hawn at Bellator 95 this year in Atlantic City, with Hawn winning by 2nd round KO. That defeat was his 6th in his last 11 fights, and his only remotely notable win in the past 4 years is a decision win over Thomas Denny.
Souza (6-0) is unbeaten in his professional career, and he participated on Fight Master, which is Bellator's MMA reality show. The 31-year-old Brazilian lost to Evan Cutts by 2nd round submission, but obviously doesn't have it count against his record because it's an exhibition bout.
Honestly speaking, I don't think Karo should be fighting anymore. He's looking more and more shopworn by the fight, and Hawn (who is no slouch by any means) absolutely smoked him. The only fighters he's recently proven capable of beating are regional quality at best, and he really doesn't belong in any of the top 3 MMA promotions (UFC, Bellator, World Series of FIghting). It's pretty clear that Bellator is using whatever is left of his name value as a selling point for the Spike TV prelims.
Bellator 106 takes place on November 2nd at the Long Beach Convention Center, where Michael Chandler will rematch Eddie Alvarez, Pat Curran defends his belt against Daniel Straus, and Quinton Jackson fights Tito Ortiz in the main event.

'Special needs' pets need constant care, extra attention
Updated On: Jan 24 2013 06:13:53 AM CST
Some animals need a little more TLC than others, and there are some things you should know if you're opening your home to a "special needs" pet.
Obie, a stray from the streets of Allentown, recently came out of surgery and was taken in by the Lehigh County Humane Society.
"I've been sheltering for 19 years, and this is first time we've had a dog like this anywhere I've been.," said Cary Moran, shelter manager.
Due to a spinal issue, Obie can't use his hind legs and needs a wheelchair to get around.
"He loves to play. He's played with a young dog that visits the shelter often," Moran said.
Moran did admit special needs animals like Obie are especially tough to adopt. If you want to adopt Obie or any special needs pet, you need to know what that entails.
"He is going to need a lifetime of care," said Kathy Tuhacek, a veterinarian, who noted that every special needs case is different.
Some animals, like a pit bull boxer mix at the Humane Society, have major skin issues that need to be solved. Others, like a one-eyed cat, have eyesight problems.
For Obie, he needs constant care and special attention that can be both expensive and time consuming, said Tuhacek, who has seen many cases when the best of intentions turn into a heartbreaking return.
"You have to think with your head and not your heart," she advised.
"Unconditional love," said Moran, when asked about the payoff. "Every bit of attention he absorbs like a sponge. Lets you know how much he appreciates and loves it."
Obie and several other special needs animals are patiently awaiting that special person to take them in.

TUESDAY, Sept. 4 (HealthDay News) -- Of U.S. adults with hypertension, more than half have uncontrolled hypertension, yet the majority report having a usual source of care and health insurance, according to a study published in the Sept. 4 early-release issue of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Morbidity & Mortality Weekly Report.
Amy L. Valderrama, Ph.D., from the CDC in Atlanta, and colleagues estimated the prevalence of hypertension awareness and treatment among adults with uncontrolled hypertension using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003 to 2010.
The researchers found that, among U.S. adults aged 18 years and older, the overall prevalence of hypertension was 30.4 percent, which corresponded to approximately 66.9 million individuals. Of these, an estimated 53.5 percent (35.8 million) had uncontrolled hypertension, including 39.4 percent who were unaware of their hypertension; 15.8 percent who were aware of their hypertension, but were untreated; and 44.8 percent who were aware of their hypertension and had uncontrolled hypertension despite receiving treatment. The majority of individuals with uncontrolled hypertension reported having a usual source of care (89.4 percent) and having health insurance (85.2 percent).
"Uncontrolled hypertension affects nearly 36 million adults in the United States, yet 32 million of these adults have a usual source of health care, and 30 million have health insurance, representing a missed opportunity for hypertension control," the authors write. "The findings in this report can be used to target populations and refine interventions to improve hypertension control."
