BRADLEY COUNTY, TN (WRCB)- Bradley County investigators have released the name of the three-year-old girl involved in Wednesday's accidental deadly shooting on Benwood Trail in Cleveland.
Detectives say three-year-old Kydalynn Robinson lived at the home with her mother and say so far, the evidence points to a tragic accident.
The shooting happened at the home of a Tennessee State Trooper. He was not home at the time but his daughter and two grandchildren were.
The Bradley County Sheriff's Office says it is still investigating what happened.
"This is very unfortunate situation, involving a young child," says Bob Gault with the Bradley County Sheriff's Office.
Around 10:30 Wednesday morning, three-year-old Kydalynn Robinson was playing with her two-year-old cousin inside 141 Benwood Trail.
"They apparently located the weapon somewhere in the house," says Gault.
Investigators say Robinson picked up the .45 caliber gun and it shot a bullet near her left eye. An ambulance rushed her to Sky Ridge Medical Center where she later died.
"At this point in time it's being ruled as accidental," says Gault.
Tennessee Highway Patrol confirms to Channel 3 the accident happened at the home of Lieutenant Tommie Graham, a 34-year veteran of the force.
Highway Patrol Colonel Tracy Trott released the following statement, saying," The Tennessee Highway Patrol would like to extend our thoughts and prayers to Lieutenant Tommie Graham and his family during this difficult time. The death of his family member was a tragic accident, and Lt. Graham is cooperating fully with Bradley County Sheriff's Officers during the investigation. We do not anticipate any disciplinary action internally. However, any decisions will be made pending the outcome of the investigation."
"Just makes you sad for the family," says neighbor Kim Grubbs.
Grubbs says the news is hard to hear.
"We're sorry for your loss and that we will be praying for you and hope that we can reach out during this time," says Grubbs.
In the meantime, Gault offers a common reminder for gun owners, especially those with children.
"You need to make sure they are locked away safe where they can't have access."
At this point investigators have not said who the gun belongs to or where the young girl found the gun in the house.
So far, no charges have been filed in this case.

Survey: Half of Nephrologists Familiar With Newly Approved Velphoro
Respondents express interest in galectin-3 binder GCS-100
In a survey conducted by Decision Resources Group, a health care research firm located in Burlington, Mass., more than half of surveyed nephrologists expressed "moderate" familiarity with the FDA's approval of Velphoro (sucroferric oxyhydroxide chewable tablets, Fresenius Medical Care), a new phosphate binder, in November 2013 for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
"Physicians are recalling lower number of pills as one of Velphoro's primary messages from sales representatives," said analyst Ron Dubman. "Not surprisingly, we have found in this and other studies that delivery attributes are not as important compared with efficacy and safety attributes."
Surveyed nephrologists reported being under the most pressure from their dialysis units to restrict the measurement of nonessential labs, to use lower doses of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs), and to have more stringent hemoglobin targets, resulting in less ESA use. Nephrologists believed that the delay in including oral dialysis drugs into the end-stage renal disease payment bundle will similarly affect the future use of phosphate binders, oral iron, and cinacalcet (Sensipar, Amgen).
The survey also found that the use of iron sucrose injection (Venofer, Vifor/American Regent) in hemodialysis patients has significantly decreased compared with this time period last year.
The report discusses aided familiarity, interest, and percentage of patients as likely candidates for 12 renal products in development after a review of product profiles. Key findings include the following:
- Nearly half of nephrologists reported high interest in GCS-100 (La Jolla Pharmaceutical), a galectin-3 binder; this response was higher than for all other renal anemia and bone mineral metabolism products in late-stage development covered in the survey.
- Nearly one-third of nephrologists reported high interest in the oral renal anemia product GSK-1278863A (GlaxoSmithKline).
- Nearly one-third of nephrologists reported high interest in ST-10 (Shield Therapeutics), an oral ferric iron therapy.
- Should velcalcetide (Amgen), an intravenous therapy for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), receive FDA approval, nephrologists expected significantly higher usage in the dialysis versus the CKD non-dialysis setting.
- Although familiarity was low, more than 40% of nephrologists reported high interest in Rayaldee (OPKO Health), an oral vitamin D therapy used to treat SHPT, after reviewing a product profile. The compound is being tested in patients with stage-3 and stage-4 CKD.

Baby Season: Birds of Prey
By Pamela Hartmann
Photos by Jeanette Stone and Jeri Roberts
Raising a baby raptor is tricky. No human can do the job that avian parents do. For this reason, it's almost always preferable to re-nest a baby bird that has fallen from the nest, and for it to grow up with its own kind in the wild, than for humans to attempt to raise it.
However, placing a baby bird of prey (such as a hawk or owl) back in the nest carries with it its own challenges, as Bob Peak will tell you. Re-nester extraordinaire at Pacific Wildlife Care, Peak is kept busy from mid-April through the end of June reuniting birds with their families—or occasionally with other families.
Having the right equipment is necessary to the task. Peak takes with him goggles, gloves, maybe boots, ladder, ropes, crate, nesting materials, and CD player or iPhone with a speaker—this to use after returning the baby to the nest or branch, when he retreats some distance and plays distress calls. "The parents are quick to respond," Peak says, "often within a minute."
And having the know-how is essential. One key to re-nesting, he says, is an ability to identify the species. Some birds can be placed with others of their species from a different nest, but this doesn't work with Red-tailed Hawks, for example. Knowing the species also tells the rescuer what sort of nest the bird is from, and although the original nest or cavity is usually best, there could be reasons (predators, for example, or a tree too high for a person to climb) to create another, false, nest and place it nearby.
Another key to re-nesting is determining the bird's stage of development. A nestling has an egg-tooth beak and a thin coat of down feathers. Older nestlings have down and their first flight feathers. Branchers are old enough to leave the nest and begin hopping around on tree branches. Fledglings are beginning to fly but are still dependent on their parents.
Sometimes a property owner will call PWC, worried about a baby bird on the ground whose "first flight was a failure," explains Jeanette Stone, Center Operations Director at PWC. But if the parent is alive, there's no problem; the parent will return. The humans just need to keep watch with binoculars, from a distance, and keep dogs and cats away.
Home Rehabilitation
If the baby is truly an orphan, or if re-nesting is not an option because of an unsafe environment, predators, siblicide, or such, it may be necessary for the bird to be raised by one of several home rehabilitators in SLO County.
However, Jeri Roberts will tell you that there's a good reason it's illegal to raise a raptor—or any wild animal—without a permit from the state. Home re-habbing requires a great deal of knowledge and a huge commitment.
Growing up, Roberts "never even had a parakeet," she says—let alone a wild bird of prey. But one day about ten years ago, she saw a young woman from Pacific Wildlife Care in an Earth Day booth at Mission Plaza. On the woman's well-gloved arm was a Great Horned Owl named "Hoot"—one of the few raptors that the state has designated as an educational animal. Wham. Roberts was enchanted.
Back in those days, before Pacific Wildlife Care had its Morro Bay Rehabilitation Center and wildlife veterinarian, PWC consisted of a group of individual but associated home rehabilitators, and Roberts wanted to become one. She got in touch with the group and told them that she had acreage and a chicken coop up in Prefumo Canyon ("as wild a setting as possible") and would like to learn how to handle, raise, and rehabilitate raptors such as owls and hawks. She received mentoring from home rehabbers. She went to conferences. She visited raptor centers—even one in Alaska—to find out how they did things. Then she got to work.
Today, Roberts is a Senior Rehabilitator at PWC, through which she does educational outreach, teaches the baby bird class, gets educational birds ready to meet the public, raises baby raptors, and does creancing, the glove training that provides injured adult raptors with the exercise necessary to prepare them to return to the wild—the final step in their rehabilitation.
If her "first love is education," as she puts it, "trying to raise these raptors" is her "second passion." As one of several home rehabbers in SLO County, Roberts now has three flight facilities on her property, making it one of the de facto satellites of Pacific Wildlife Care's Morro Bay Center, the central receiving point where orphaned raptors are first brought for intake—a physical exam, weighing, and banding. Although injured adult birds often remain at the Center for recovery, injured or orphaned babies are always raised by home rehabbers to minimize human contact and avoid imprinting—bonding and recognition of others of the bird's own kind. It is crucial, of course, that animals returning to the wild not lose their fear of humans, because doing so would make life in the wild even more dangerous. And it's already "really tough out there"; the mortality rate in the first year of life in the wild is 50%—and that's when the birds are raised in ideal conditions, by their own parents.
At the PWC Center, with its virtual army of supervisors and volunteers caring for many animals—mammalian, avian, and sometimes reptilian—it would be more difficult to retain the control necessary to avoid imprinting than it is for one human raising a group of nestlings. Hence the small constellation of home rehabbers.
Begin with the Space
To raise a bird of prey, you start with the right setting. Jeri Roberts' largest flight facility is a cage 30 feet long. Another is 20 feet long, 10 feet high, and L-shaped, with a gentle curve at the angle—a space where young or adult raptors can exercise and practice making turns. But the babies are placed in mews—small raised cages set into the side of the larger facility. In these cages, the babies are safe, and Roberts can see them through peep holes above a sort of doggie door, without being seen by them. This door is a flap that allows her to reach in and feed them with a tool that looks like long tweezers or tongs. For those times when she can't avoid being seen by baby Great Horned owls, which imprint more easily than other raptors, she wears an owl mask, because once the babies' eyes are open, imprinting begins.
Within the facility, the mews must be furnished to resemble a natural nest. In the wild, young nestlings (with only a thin coat of down) are kept warm by the mother. So in each small cage, the home rehabber needs to supply heating pads (to provide warmth but not too much) and feather dusters—to simulate Mom.
Birds of a Feather: Identifying with One's Species
You've provided the space and furnished the mews. Now you have to consider the babies' need for contact with others of their own species. It's beneficial, for example, for baby Red-tailed Hawks to look out into the larger cage and watch an adult hawk flying, hunting, and preening—something to aspire to, so to speak. At times in the past, Roberts would borrow Hoot as a role model for baby Great Horned Owls. But if she doesn't happen to have an adult in the outer cage, she puts a mirror in the small cage, so "the babies can see what they are."
Roberts always hopes to have more than one baby at a time—two to four together in each mew. If she has only one orphan from a nest, she can mix babies from different nests—and even of different ages—though of course they must be of the same species. This often involves negotiating with other home rehabbers, to trade species.
Mixing babies from different ages or nests turns out to be easier with some species than others. Great Horned Owls are easy to mix, as are kestrels. Once, Roberts put a downy baby kestrel with another kestrel that was a little older. Although a baby herself, the older one started feeding the younger. However, Barn Owls are harder to mix in a way that ensures that "nobody gets hurt." The protocol requires putting up a screen for several days so they can hear but not see one another. Although "you don't want to make generalizations," Roberts says, since "they have distinct personalities," adult male Barn Owls are usually more docile than females. In the wild, the female adult is very aggressive and protects the nest viciously. Babies can be vicious, too. The adult male drops off food at a nest in the wild and immediately leaves because "the babies would attack him."
In the midst of a busy baby season, it might be necessary to have nests of different species together in the mews, sharing the same flight cage when they're old enough. This works surprisingly well as long as they don't see one another—and if the young of one nest are diurnal and the other nocturnal.
However, teaching young birds their own "language" is another matter. Jeri Roberts sometimes plays recordings of calls for the babies (although never distress calls) so they can hear what adults of their species sound like. The problem with this? Humans can't yet discern the meaning of most calls, or as Roberts puts it, "I don't know that language." For this reason, borrowing Hoot, the Great Horned Owl, was a good idea because he was "a very vocal owl."
The Challenges of Diet
Another reason baby raptors are tricky to raise is their diet. Jeri Roberts was once permitted to keep as an educational animal a Barn Owl that had been confiscated from a person with good intentions but a lack of knowledge. This person had taken in the owl as a baby and knew owls to be carnivores but—out of ignorance—fed the bird hamburger meat. When this diet resulted in multiple bone fractures, the owl was taken to a veterinarian, who diagnosed him with metabolic bone disease and notified the Department of Fish and Wildlife.
The problem is that raptors must eat whole animals—not just the flesh. Without consuming the bones, too, these birds of prey aren't able to build their own strong bones. So although Jeri Roberts herself is a vegetarian, she keeps "a freezer full of dead mice" bought at great expense from a company that provides them for this purpose—part of the reason that raising these birds requires a big commitment.
The Time of the Empty Nest
After weeks of being hand fed, the baby birds arrive at the branching age, and Roberts opens the door between the large flight facility and the small cage within it. In the large cage, she has carefully placed branches and boards with roosting areas for the young birds to use as they begin explore the world outside the mew and to fly. Their small nests are still there, but raptors rarely return to the nest.
"When they start branching," she says, "they're self-feeding, and now we're in business." At this point, they learn to fly by practicing, but she has to teach them another skill essential for survival in the wild: hunting live prey. She does this by putting live mice in a long trough inside the flight facility.
In time, the birds are ready for a "soft release" in which they are freed to the wild but are still able to return to a feeding platform outside the cage to supplement their prey from hunting. As their hunting skills improve, the intervals between which they return to the platform become longer and longer.
In the hierarchy of ways to deal with baby birds of prey, re-nesting is always the most desirable. Failing that, surrogacy is the next option (to be covered in the June issue of SLO Coast Journal). The raising of baby raptors by home rehabilitators—no matter how knowledgeable, caring, and attentive—is the option of last resort, with good reason: it's very, very hard.

A Beginning
Story and photo by Claudia Duckworth
I'd like to introduce you to PWCs first education corvid, "Corax." He belongs to the family that includes crows, jays, Magpies and nutcrackers. Corax is a raven and his designation in the ornithological world is Corvus Corax or Common Raven. Corax came to the PWC Center in the Spring of 2012 as a nestling whose nest and nest mates had been destroyed. He was injured, but, as always, we hoped he could eventually be returned to the wild.
Despite our efforts, Corax could not fly adequately to survive in the wild and the decision was made to include him in our education program. Corvids are notoriously difficult to train because, despite being among the smartest of animals, they are extremely wary of new things and change.
PWC is fortunate to have a young wildlife trainer, Karen Johnston, on staff who was experienced with education animals and was willing to work with me and Corax. Neither of us realized the time and energy it would take to earn this bird's trust. Karen was faced with training a wild raven and a novice handler. We built a large aviary since Corax can fly in a limited way and developed a plan. Plan A quickly changed to Plan B, to C, and so on.
Karen was experienced with raptors and many other species but had not worked much with corvids. Everything frightened this bird: a new glove, a different bowl, a moved perch, including having him on the glove, walking around, an essential event for an education bird. Everything caused visible stress. At times, we were discouraged thinking we would have to give up and find a new home for a bird that we had come to know and care for.
At about the year mark, with time running out as Karen prepared to start nursing school, we had a breakthrough! Thanks to her skill and determination, it appeared Corax had achieved what David Jackson of "Zoo To You," has described to us as "learning to learn." Now, it was Karen and I who were wary. We'd been on a roller coaster ride of two steps forward followed by ten steps back. Was it real? I can only say that, so far, it is!
This journey will continue and we will have to ask our audiences to understand and help as Corax progresses. Karen has agreed to continue to work us into her busy schedule. For me, it has been a most happy adventure of getting to know two engaging fellow beings: one small, black and feathered and the other tall, slender and wise beyond her years.
Morro Bay, CA, October 7, 2013—A matching fund has been established that will double all donations to Pacific Wildlife Care's "Fund Our Vet" campaign.
A full-time on-site veterinarian, Dr. Shannon Riggs, was first hired at Pacific Wildlife Care (PWC) in January, 2013 as Director of Animal Care. Since then, survival rates have improved significantly, from 35% in January to 62% from March to October—well above the national average. The current funding effort aims at securing Riggs' services through 2014.
Dr. Riggs oversees the work of skilled Senior Rehabilitators and 120 volunteers, optimizing efforts to provide prompt, expert care at PWC, whose mission is to treat and return to the natural habitat injured, orphaned, and pollution-damaged wildlife in San Luis Obispo County. The center has steadily expanded its capacity, volunteer base, and number of animals treated—taking in 2,336 animals in 2012.
Due to Riggs' expertise, more animals are rehabilitated than could have been otherwise, such as a turkey vulture, recently released near Cal Poly, that was brought to the center with two broken wings—or a pelican that was admitted wrapped in fishing line and fish hooks, with a fish carcass in its esophagus and spines protruding from its pouch. Dr. Riggs reached down into its throat and pulled out a large rockfish. The pelican recovered and was released October 4.
Donations to the "Fund Our Vet" campaign will be matched, dollar for dollar, until January 15, 2014, although earlier donations will allow the center to better plan for the coming year.

Great Horned Owl #13-757
And now….a story from our Vet, Shannon Riggs, DVM
Great horned owl #13-757 arrived at Pacific Wildlife Care on May 28 after being found entangled in a barbed wire fence. The bird's rescuer was able to cut the small section of fence around which the bird's right wing was wrapped and bring the bird to the clinic.
GHOW 757 sustained a significant injury to the underside of the patagium (or "wing web") of the right wing. A single barb had become embedded in the skin and, while struggling to free himself, the owl wrapped the skin tightly around the barb, tearing the skin. The result was a large open wound approximately three inches in diameter. Luckily, there was not significant damage to muscle or tendons and the bird was in good condition otherwise so, despite this severe injury, we decided to try working with this bird.
Barbed wire entanglement is relatively common injury for birds of prey, especially great horned owls. The birds apparently don't see the wire, or that there are barbs on the wire, and become caught, usually by a wing, as they are trying to fly through. In struggling to free themselves, the birds often become more tightly trapped, wrapping themselves repeatedly around the wire. The tightening acts like a tourniquet, compromising blood supply to the entangled wing. Often, so much damage is done, both from the initial injury and from later loss of tissue due to the constriction, that these cases are not salvageable.
Because the skin that had been covering the wound site was so damaged on this owl, it was no longer viable and could not be used to repair the defect. Because the skin of the patagium is stretched taut in flight, there is very little extra skin around the injured area that can be moved over such a large defect. We were therefore left with having to manage the injury as an open wound. Potential complications that are of concern are the potential for infection and loss of viability of exposed muscle, tendons, blood vessels, and nerves.
The owl was started on medications to prevent infection and to manage pain. Luckily, the owl ate well on his own from the beginning, so his handling could be decreased by placing his medications into food items. Daily dressing changes were performed, applying wound care products that keep tissue hydrated and promote healing. Two weeks after admission, when the wound was looking clean and healthy, we decided to try a type of tissue graft. Specially treated porcine tissue, a commercially available product used as a tissue patch, was affixed over the wound under anesthesia. We continued to manage the wound 2-3 times per week, cleaning the tissue graft site and applying gel to keep the graft hydrated. Unfortunately, after approximately 2 weeks, the graft was no longer viable and had to be removed. We then found another product, a biological glass substance, which stimulates growth of new blood vessels and therefore healing.
The owl has shown a good response to this treatment. Over the past month, the wound has been checked, cleaned, and a new dressing applied twice weekly. The wound has contracted significantly without the formation of scar tissue, which would have impaired the ability of the wing to extend fully. At this point, it seems that the owl is making significant strides toward release. While it is always impossible to make predictions about wildlife cases, as any number of things can happen that could change the course of a patient's rehabilitation, if things continue as they have been, the prospects for this owl's release are good. It will likely still be several weeks before we will know for certain, but we are hopeful that this owl will be able to return to his wild life.
Amazing, Dedicated PWC Volunteers
Pacific Wildlife Care could not do it's lifesaving work without our legion of volunteers. PWC currently has over 80 Center Volunteers, 50 Transporters, 20 Phone Volunteers and 50 Home Rehabbers. Recently, we have several new "Front Desk" and "Bookkeeping" volunteers who now help answer phones, attempt to keep up with data input, check the mail, enter receipts, and help with intakes on wildlife brought in by the public. Thank you: Dorothy Correa, Joyce Pardue, Pati Scott, JoDea Harry
As an organization, the Board of Directors understands that we have grown to the point of needing an Executive Director as well as needing an Office Manager (however, funding is not yet available for such important, organization-stabilizing jobs); so, in the meantime, we rely heavily on our wonderful volunteers!
It's such a rewarding experience to recognize that our volunteers, when they see or realize a "need" for PWC, step up, take initiative and just "do it!"
From Kelly Cherry (who stepped up to help with the Center and Phone Volunteer's calendar and email reminders), to Christine Lanier (who saw the need to start up "Critter Corner" – a newsletter just for the Center Volunteers), to Shawn Brown (who saw the need for one-on-one mentoring sessions for new volunteers), to Gary Bendetti (who fixed the precarious cage washing area), to Karen Venditti (who has taken over gathering info for and emailing out "Critter Corner"), to Richard Grise (who will get the word out to our volunteers about Oiled Wildlife Care Network trainings), to Kathleen Dillon (who helped coordinate the recent Center remodel), to our volunteer Tech Guru / President / Treasurer Dave Klinzman (who as supported the organization beyond measure); we are all so very appreciative for the vision you had and the time you committed to PWC!
The organization benefits from each and every volunteer who gives of their time, ideas and skills.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Look for information on the Volunteer Appreciation Picnic to be scheduled in late summer or early fall…
White Pelican
This is the first White Pelican the Center has seen. It is a protected bird in California, yet this did not stop someone from shooting it twice. A good samaritan spotted the bird hitting a tree and falling to the ground, and called PWC to come get it. The shots were reported to California Department of Fish and Game, but unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident. But on a lighter note, the bullets only grazed the bird's flank, and the bird is doing very well. He was released on Monday after we dressed his wounds and monitored him for 2 days.
The American White Pelican is a magnificent bird. For some comparison:
_____________Brown Pelican vs White Pelican
Avg Body Length 42-54 inches 50-70 inches
Avg Wing Span 72-98 inches 95-120 inches
Avg Weight 6-12 lbs 11-20 lbs
Unlike the Brown Pelican, the White Pelican does not dive for its food, but rather swims. It also is not in the habit of begging for food, so we humans do not see the White Pelican as often as the Brown Pelican. But when we do get to see one, it is quite a magnificent sight.

Farmville 2 Cheats Hack Tool Features:
• Coins Hack
• Bucks Hack
• Social Points
• Energy Adder
FarmVille 2, like its predecessor, lets players log in free, most likely through Facebook, to begin tilling a plot of land. Players can click on squares to plant seeds for tomatoes, blueberries and other crops. One click to plant. One click to water. Then a timer reveals the number of minutes, hours or, eventually, days it will take for that crop to grow into a lucrative harvest. Seeds cost virtual money, as do animals that can be fed to produce eggs, wool, milk and other goods that can be sold back for more virtual money.

And it's a cracker.
Today Blakey promises "If Cardiff City stay in the Premier League I'll do a terrifying skydive."

We mentioned the snooker earlier. Michael White is still in action against Mark Selby.
Follow it here...
It's one hour before the big football kick offs. Steve Tucker is on his way to Rodney Parade for Newport v Burton, we have a huge game at Merthyr, where they face Evesham desperate for a win to keep their automatic promotion hopes alive and Wrexham host Lincoln up at the Racecourse.
In rugby we have the massive bank-holiday derby between Aberavon and Neath, where the All Blacks need a win to secure their Premiership safety.

The football world has gone crazy in the last five minutes as reports are emerging that David Moyes is about to be sacked as Manchester United manager.
We will bring you more news as we get it.
Unconfirmed reports Man Utd to sack David Moyes.

The United story is getting juicier by the minute.
Now the talk is of Ryan Giggs taking temporary charge.

Our sister website the Manchester Evening News say: "Manchester United refuse to deny reports that David Moyes is to be sacked as manager."
So, Ryan Giggs is being linked with the Old Trafford hotseat.
He we talk through who he could be up against and how he could help his hometown club stay in the Premier League.

Away from Moyes for a moment.
Neath lead Aberavon 13-10 at half time in the Welsh Premiership. If that stays the same, Swansea will be relegated to the Championship.
Newport County lead Burton 1-0 thanks to a goal from Andy Sandell.
Wrexham still 0-0 against Lincoln.
Burton have equalised at Newport.
A Symes penalty makes it 1-1.
Sky Sports are now reporting that Moyes is still the United manager but his fate could be sealed in the next 24 hours.
We will bring you more as we get it but here are some of the contenders to replace him.
Meanwhile, former Cardiff City striker Rudy Gestede has scored a hat-trick for Blackburn Rovers, who lead 4-0 at Birmingham at half time in the Championship.
Our data team have been busy crunching the stats on Moyes' time at United.
In terms of points-per-game, Moyes record is undeniably dire.
In a comparison of present and recent-past managers, he comes out below not only the likes of Mourinho and Pellegrini, but also Martinez at Everton, Wenger at Arsenal, and even Andre Villas-Boas during his ill-fated spell at Tottenham.
Giggs' competition: So who are the contenders to take over the Manchester United hot-seat?
Take a look through the front runners here
Phew. What excitement!
David Moyes is still in a job so we go back to the live action and we have a full time from the Welsh Premiership.
Neath have beaten Aberavon 27-10 and will be staying up.
Swansea need a big bonus point swing in Saturday's final day derby match at St Helens to stay up now.
Newport County are still level at 1-1 with Burton.
Wrexham trail 1-0 to Lincoln and Merthyr are 1-0 up at home to Evesham, keeping them in the Southern League title race.
Full times when we get them...
It's tea at the Swalec Stadium and Gloucestershire are on 138/4, leading by 7 runs.
Mammoth three hour afternoon session at the Swalec Stadium ends with Gloucestershire 138-4, seven runs behind Glamorgan— Gareth Griffiths (@gazg2000) April 21, 2014
And, apologies to Swansea rugby fans. In the last post I wrote you off after Neath's win.
But it appears there is still hope for the men from St Helens.
It all comes down to next week for us now. We will need a bp win over to Neath and Aberavon to lose without a bp to avoid relegation— Swansea Rugby Club (@swansearfc) April 21, 2014
Here is the winner of the award for the day's most dramatic, yet irrelevant tweet.

Trick shot alert!
We've been following our own Michael White in action at the Crucible today against the mighty Mark Selby.
But how can you expect to win against somebody who can pot 'em like this?
Take a look.
We have a full time from the Racecourse and it's bad news for Wrexham fans.
It's finished Wrexham 0-1 Lincoln City
Meanwhile, we have another wicket at the Swalec.
Dean Cosker has taken his fourth and Gloucestershire are now 143-5
Full time at Newport County. The Exiles have drawn 1-1 with Burton.
Merthyr beat Evesham Town 1-0 but Cirencester Town also won and will go to Yate on Saturday knowing a point will secure the Southern League title.
The Martyrs go to Thatcham Town on Saturday needing to win and hope Yate do them a favour.
Other football headlines:
Burnley are promoted to the Premier League
Wolves are champions of League One
Stevenage are relegated to League Two
Moyes latest...
Our colleagues over at the Manchester Evening News are reporting that Manchester United can not make a major announcement during trading hours at the New York Stock Exchange.
If that is true, then an announcement could potentially be made between 9pm and 2.30am.
Get the coffee on!
If you only read two football match reports today then read these.
First, Steve Tucker reporting from Newport's draw with Burton.
Then read this hard-hittting analysis of Wrexham's dire home defeat to Lincoln from Mark Currie.
Just as we were about to close up for the night, Glamorgan have squeezed in another wicket.
And it's a fifth wicket for Dean Cosker, his 10th 5-for in his glittering career.
Gloucestershire are on 186-7. Lead of 41 over Glamorgan.
As they say in the cartoons, "That's all folks."
We will have all the updates on the Moyest situation at WalesOnline.co.uk/football and I hope I'm not letting the cat out of the bag by revealing there is a pretty big Welsh rugby story set to break this evening at WalesOnline.co.uk/rugby
If you are off for an early night, be back here for an 8am start with Alex Bywater tomorrow.

Cool stuff
Sweet, Dwellings was noiceDigging: Strawberry Switchblade - Strawberry Switchblade
Digging: Strawberry Switchblade - Strawberry Switchblade
Awesome. I missed Dwellings completely but I'm excited for this
song is good. i miss the vocal style from Dwellings though.
The track 'Waking Sleep' is really underwhelming after the first couple listens. I miss the really intelligible vocals and hard-rock style that Dwellings had, and the lyrics don't seem to have that same quality where they just hit you right in the chest like they did on Dwellings. This has its moments, but overall I'm feeling pretty meh
'The Pythia' is better, but it is still worse than anything on their last release.
? Earth Diver isnt a track. i havent listened to the whole album yet, but from what ive heard so far itll be a worthy addition to their discography. i dont think theyre ever gonna top Dwellings though.
Oh yeah, it was 'Waking Sleep'. Herp derp

Best tablet for older person
So A little while ago I got my grandmother a nice new large plasma tv, but now I wanted to make it easier for her to watch stuff on the tv. I got a chromecast for her as well and linked it to the local wifi, but now I need to pick out a tablet so she can control my netflix account (been waiting for the multiple profiles, I am the only other one using the account since I think it allows two simultaneous streams this should be ok).
I was thinking the best cheap tablet would be the nexus 7 but I wonder, would it be better for her to use a larger tablet for browsing and netflix control?
Which do you all think would be best?

To Be or Not To Be Gluten-Free?

How to Eat Gluten-Free
The good news: "When you eat a whole foods diet and have control over ingredients, the world is your oyster when it comes to eating gluten-free," Bazilian promises. (Just don't eat oyster crackers -- they contain wheat!) The trick is to shop the perimeter of your grocery store, where you'll find fruits and veggies, chicken, fish and lean meat, low-fat milk and yogurt -- all naturally devoid of gluten. "Plus, the trendy ancient grains that are all the rage right now, like quinoa, black rice and amaranth, are gluten-free." Corn, beans, potatoes, millet, gluten-free oats, buckwheat (even though it has the word "wheat" in it) and all kinds of rice are all still on the table, too.
Dining out or consuming packaged products gets far trickier. While it's relatively easy to scan a label for wheat, barley or rye, gluten can masquerade as other common ingredients, such as enriched bleached flour, semolina and Brewer's yeast. Luckily, most supermarkets now offer special gluten-free sections and their web sites will provide safe shopping lists. Still, "cooking from scratch is the safest," says Bazilian. "When you're eating out -- sauces and condiments are especially tricky -- or buying products with labels, all bets are off."
If you truly do suffer from a gluten allergy, eliminating it from your diet will offer welcomed relief from symptoms, including more energy and fewer GI complaints. "But," Bazilian warns, "if you don't have an actual allergy or intolerance, it won't make you lose weight and it won't enhance sports performance. If it does, it's probably because you're eating more quality foods, like quinoa instead of white rice."
Now some important notes: People often mistake going gluten-free for eating grain-free, which can result in inadequate intake of iron, fiber and B vitamins, important for cellular functioning and metabolism. Packaged gluten-free products are also high in fat, trans fat and sugar, and can actually lead to weight gain. As with all processed foods, pick a natural source over the packaged stuff.Related Links

Many people are sensitive to gluten who don't have celiac disease. While lots of 'gluten free' packaged foods won't necessarily help you lose weight, I have seen lots of people lose weight on a gluten free diet!

I am an RN and have been diagnosed with gluten sensitivity rather than full-blown celiac disease. Since I have been off gluten, I have my life back. I was ready for a wheelchair when I was eating gluten and eggs. People need to understand that the wheat of today is genetically engineered altering the protein and making it stronger, this is why so many people are becoming sensitive to products with wheat and gluten.10/17/2013 04:14:44 PM Report Abuse
Just remember that celiac is an autoimmune disease that is being diagnosed more frequently than ever before thanks to blood tests and other immune marker tests. Celiac does not always impact your GI tract and eating gluten if you have celiac is serious stuff! If you eat GF and you feel better (fewer migraines, fewer skin woes, more energy, etc.), you make have celiac and not know it. Check with your doc before hopping back on the wheat wagon. (Oh and I have celiac and do miss wheat.)10/17/2013 02:22:37 PM Report Abuse
One more comment - as a RN for 22 years, I have worked with many people who medically required a gluten-free diet.10/17/2013 12:09:14 PM Report Abuse

Our beloved grandfather, Poppy Sol, started this business in an open-air market. Three generations later, we're still bringing smiles to our customers' faces.
Chicory is often used with or as a substitute for coffee. It has no caffeine and offers a smooth roasted flavor comparable to that of coffee. Chicory is especially popular in New Orleans.
Our chicory is made from the root of the chicory plant, Cichorium intybus, also known as endive. The root is dried, roasted, and ground up, to produce a naturally decaffeinated dark brown powder. Chicory's flavor is similar to that of coffee, although it tastes a bit more roasted and has a sweeter aroma. Some detect in it a hint of chocolate.
Few herbs have as long a history as chicory. The ancient Egyptians believed that chicory had therapeutic properties and could be used to purify the blood and treat liver problems. A notable Roman author described the leaves of the plant as an essential part of his diet. Chicory first became popular as a coffee substitute during the early 1800s, when, legend holds, Napoleon's troops brought the herb back to Paris from Northern Europe.
Historically, chicory has always been less expensive than coffee, and has become more popular when coffee is rare or expensive. During the Great Depression and World War II, for instance, many Americans substituted chicory for coffee. Today, many enjoy chicory's unique flavor by brewing chicory tea or blending it with other coffees. The herb is especially favored by New Orleans, where it is often blended with dark roasted coffee.
Chicory is also notable for its medical properties. The herb is used for body cleansing and can be beneficial for the gallbladder and liver. It has also been known to control blood sugar levels.
Chicory can be brewed right in your home coffeemaker. Simply use two to three tablespoons of ground roast chicory for each cup of hot brew desired. Vary the amount to suit your taste. Sweeten with sugar (brown or white) or honey; lighten with milk or cream.

"I made my first pot using 1/4 chickory. Now, there's a coffee with body. Your product was first class...and fresh. Thanx for using such heavy shipping (and storage) bags. "
CB, NC February 7, 2010
"My father has been going through chemotherapy and there isn't much he can enjoy. He can't even enjoy a cup of coffee because it tastes too bitter when he is on chemo. He wished he had some chicory like they had in the old days to improve the coffee taste, but we couldn't find it anywhere in the area 30 miles around. So I went online and our order from nutsonline.com was shipped and received in 2 days as promised. The quality was great and it really pleased him a lot, which in itself is worth gold. We will definitely order again. "
Ed, NY December 4, 2009
"I received with no problems the 5# bag of chicory you sent to me. I got re-hooked on chicory in my brewed coffee after a recent visit to NO. Chicory is not carried in our local stores up her in the north. Thanks for your service."
JIm, Memphis, TN December 3, 2009
"You really know how to make a person smile. Keep up the great and nutty work."
Mitchell, Sharpsburg, GA November 18, 2009
"I ordered a pound of chicory to mix in with my coffee (I love New Orleans style!) and it was awesome! Very fresh! Very floral! Adds wonderful taste to my coffee! I can't wait to place my next order with you guys! God bless!"
Gail, Tampa, FL October 14, 2009
"Nuts Online ships their orders so fast!! Don't know why other companies cannot do the same. The chickory tasted GREAT! I put two scoops of coffee and a scoop of chickory and the bitterness is completely gone. Thanks so much!!"

"I can't believe how quickly my order came. I ordered is on a Saturday evening and it was delivered Monday morning; and I received an e-mail within 5 minutes telling me that my order had been delivered!
I ordered roasted chicory to blend with French Roast coffer for a New Orleans blend. I've been able to buy such a blend locally, but am moving out of the city and from visiting the market we will likely be using my New Orleans blend is not available. I decided to try your roasted chicory to make my own blend and like it better than the store bought one. Love the quality and the speed of delivery. Thank you."

A Zion man pleaded guilty to first-degree murder Tuesday in the death of his former girlfriend's 5-month-old baby, the Lake County News-Sun reports.
In exchange for the guilty plea, prosecutors agreed to a 35-year sentencing cap for Demetries Thorpe, 26.
On July 1, Judge Daniel Shanes told Thorpe and his defense attorneys that they had one week to accept or reject a plea offer. If the plea deal wasn't accepted by Tuesday, July 8, a trial date would have been set.
Thorpe had pleaded not guilty to suffocating 5-month-old Joshua Summeries and then disposing of the body in a garbage Dumpster.
He was arrested and charged on Aug. 24 of last year. Thorpe has remained in the custody of the Lake County Jail.

Protect your vision from effects of diabetes

If you have diabetes, regular eye exams are important to diagnose potential problems early, according to the medical staff at Coastal Jersey Eye Center. High blood glucose caused by diabetes increases the risk of eye problems. In fact, diabetes is the leading cause of new cases of blindness and impaired vision in adults ages 20 to 74.
There are a few simple steps that can help prevent vision loss:

Local allergist to report results with new poison ivy allergy vaccine in Chicago
Written by Advertiser submission Tuesday, December 10, 2013 02:51 pm
MILLVILLE — Since 2008, local allergist Dr. Robert Coifman has been collaborating with Catherine Yang, the chairwoman of Rowan University's chemistry/biochemistry program to develop, standardize and treat poison ivy allergy patients with vaccines made from fresh, locally grown poison ivy leaves.
At the World Allergy Organization's Immunotherapy Symposium this weekend in Chicago, Coifman will present the results of seven successful courses of treatment in patients spanning the full 130-fold range of pre-treatment sensitivity. Each of four unsuccessful treatments was in a low sensitivity patient given what is now known to be too low a dose for his degree of sensitivity.

Yoga helps the body inside and out
Written by Advertiser submission Tuesday, December 10, 2013 01:00 am
Yoga sometimes intimidates beginners.
It seems that in the opinion of a large amount of people in this country, yoga is weird, boring, religious, seems pointless, is too easy, and is just another form of exercise. Our constantly moving culture makes us believe that if we aren't running around like a madman, pumping heavy weights, or doing the latest workout fad, we aren't getting any benefit from the work.

What does everyone think about "combat-logging" on this?
I know it's really frowned upon, but I admit I quite often do it - three bandits in full ghillie suits just opened up on me at a deer stand, I totally logged out before they could finish me off. Am I meant to feel bad about that?

Jailed: Homeless man who sexually assaulted man given 12-week prison sentence
5:40am Tuesday 25th February 2014 in News By Jane Reader
A HOMELESS man convicted of a string of sexual offences has been jailed for 12 weeks and given a restraining order.
Martin Darrell Smith, 52, targeted a 26-year-old man, sexually assaulting him on one occasion and attempting to do so twice more.
He also tried to sexually assault a 33-year-old woman as she walked along Bournemouth beach and tried to grab a 54-year-old woman as she walked along Bournemouth's East Cliff with her husband.
Smith, who is said to remain "in total denial" of the offences, pleaded not guilty during a trial earlier this month but was found guilty.
Bournemouth Magistrates' Court was told that Smith is a former grammar school pupil whose parents died when he was young. He was left the proceeds of a house sale but ran out of money more than 10 years ago and now has no family and no friends.
The trial was told Smith assaulted his male victim on December 10, 2012. The man was walking along Old Christchurch Road when Smith crossed the road towards him and reached out and touched his groin. He had attempted to do so on two previous occasions.
The first woman said he veered towards her as she walked on the promenade at Bournemouth's West Cliff in January 2013, and the second said he silently approached her and reached around her as she walked on the East Cliff on December 30, 2012.
In a statement, one woman told the court: "If I were to see him again I would be scared and in fear for my personal safety. I have been left angry and the attack made me feel dirty."
The other woman said: "His behaviour is totally unacceptable. He has made me feel unsafe in the area in which I live."
The male victim said he has been made to feel nervous and described Smith's actions as "disgusting."
Sentencing, District Judge Stephen Nicholls jailed Smith for a total of 12 weeks and issued a restraining order prohibiting him from entering Gervis Road indefinitely.

Same usual sob stories used as an excuse for breaking the law, I have no sympathy with this piece of filth whatsoever.

One thing that the Echo did not report was that some one from the homeless community was at the sentencing and he made a very threatening outburst at the end of the trial. This shows how the rest of the homeless people feel about this person and the damage this person has done to all of them.

It's not the point why find someone guilty on the 4th feb then bail him until the 24th feb takes the mick
The point is he will be out causing trouble again soon, so any restraining order is better then nothing.
