Federal authorities have launched an effort to detect lone attackers who may be contemplating politically charged assaults similar to the recent slayings of a Kansas abortion doctor and a Holocaust museum security guard.
The effort, known as the "Lone Wolf Initiative," was started shortly after President Obama's inauguration, in part because of an increasing number of hate groups and surging gun sales.

I hope you've had a good week too. You can follow me on Instagram here.
I hope you've had a good week too. You can follow me on Instagram here.
You know those mornings when you hear the clock chime 07:00 and you wonder whether you've actually slept at all? Your eyes appear to be cemented shut and your body seems to be rendered immobile due to some kind of sleep-deprived paralysis. Not even semi awake and you're already wondering how you're going to get through the day.
Well, that was me on Saturday morning.
I did not feel good.
Not helped by an empty fridge, piles of washing to do and a husband with ears oblivious to cries of children and eyes blind to bored toddler-caused chaos.
I did not feel good at all.
But how to turn a bad day good?
I worry that, because I'm not overly happy living in Zürich, I might give you the wrong impression of the city. It might not be the easiest place to live at times but, and it's a big BUT, it's undoubtably beautiful and a simple morning's stroll has the ability to lift even the gloomiest of moods.
So that's what we did.
We took a leisurely walk along the lake, stopped for a tasty treat and a much-needed shot of caffeine, and enjoyed the city that we've never really called home but will always have a fondness for nevertheless.
It feels like we're slowly starting to say our goodbyes. Every thing we do now … every walk … every visit … well, it could possibly be our last (hence the reason for having my iPhone at the ready and taking all these snaps).
Eleven weeks left to fill with as many farewells as possible.
With my recent moaning about the militant Swiss attitude to coat wearing and the un-get-on-able trams, I'm sure you're all wondering what kind of country is this. Clad in more fur layers than the abominable snowman and risking life and limb to climb aboard public transport, yes, Switzerland and its inhabitants do have their odd quirks.
However, I've had the opportunity (and luck) to live in and travel to many beautiful countries and places. La Reunion, Mauritius, Banff, Rome, Capri, Snowdonia, the Peak District, to name a favourite few. And Switzerland is right up there shaking hands and drinking prosecco with the best. It is simply breathtaking. I sometimes look at the mountains in the distance and they're so awe-inspiring that the view doesn't seem real. Almost like somebody has super-imposed them in the background.
My afternoon walk with CK (providing we can get on the tram to take us) is a stroll by Lake Zürich. When the sun's shining, I couldn't think of a nicer place to be – apart from the one time we mistakenly wandered into the path of the Zürich marathon … not our finest expat moment. Don't take my word for it … here are the photographs I took on Saturday when we were out and about.

For all walks listed here, please make sure that you're fit enough to undertake the walk you intend to join. If you're unsure of your fitness level, try a short and easy walk first. It's much better to find a walk a little too slow or easy than to exhaust yourself.

May 20, 2008
Dougherty County -- It only takes a second to click your seat belt, but more than two-thirds of young drivers killed in nighttime crashes didn't take that second to buckle-up. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released that figure this week.
Georgia law enforcers just kicked-off the "100 days of summer heat" campaign to remind drivers that seat belts save lives.
They say when inexperienced drivers are on the road at night, it's especially important for them to buckle up.
"Teens that have other teens in the car are four times more likely to be in a wreck. And they're also twice as likely to be killed by not wearing their seat belt. So when you put those statistics together, they can become overwhelming, but that's something we're trying to change. And that's why we're doing our enforcement," said Lt. Tom Jackson of the Dougherty County Police.
Anyone under the age of 18 must buckle up, even if they're in a pick-up truck.
With Memorial Day coming up, local law enforcers will set up road-blocks. They encourage you to slow down, wear your seat-belt and don't drink and drive.

We may love coffee, but tea is still the classic choice: last year, Americans spent almost $8 billion on iced and hot teas, and people around the world have been sipping the legendary beverage for thousands of years. Maybe that's why you see so many varieties, ranging from delicate white teas to robust black versions to spicy herbal blends.
But no matter the name, tea is tea. Well, mostly. Except for the various herbal varieties, all teas come from the Camellia sinensis, a shrub that's native to China and Southeast Asia. Variations in color, strength, and flavor depend on how the plant is grown, harvested, and processed. Here's what's brewing in the tea world today:
Black tea is made by oxidizing Camellia sinensis leaves to develop different colors and flavors, from reddish-brown and flowery to brownish-black with undertones of wine. Teas may also be flavored, or blended to create different flavors. English breakfast is traditionally made from Assam and Ceylon teas; Russian tea typically blends Lapsang Souchong with Assam or Keemun; and Earl Grey is flavored with bergamot, a citrusy flower. Some varieties, such as Puerh, are fermented for months or even years, which creates a bracing brew that's ideal for coffee lovers.
Brews for you: Two Leaves and a Bud Organic English Breakfast Tea; Rishi Earl Grey Supreme; Numi Organic Tea Magnolia Puerh; Choice Organic Russian Caravan Tea.
Oolong is like a mix between black and green teas; the leaves are oxidized for half the time of black tea. The result is a reddish-brown brew with a full, developed flavor that has the brightness of green tea with less caffeine (30—40 mg per cup).
Brews for you: Republic of Tea Dragon Oolong; Uncle Lee's 100% Organic Oolong Whole Leaf; Prince of Peace Organic Oolong Tea.
Green tealeaves aren't oxidized, so they retain their green color, grassy flavor, and more antioxidants. Variations exist in flavor and quality between types, but all are high in antioxidants and modest in caffeine (20—30 mg per cup). You'll find them plain, blended with herbs, or toasted for traditional Japanese flavor (Hojicha).
Brews for you: Yogi Tea Green Tea Super Antioxidant; Tazo Zen Green Tea; Zhena's Gypsy Tea Egyptian Mint Green Tea.
White tea is the least processed variety. It's made from buds and certain leaves of the tea plant that have been steamed and dried. The flavor is delicate with undertones of grass and pine. Silver Needle, made from only the buds, is considered the best (and priciest) version.
Brews for you: Choice Organic White Peony; Stash Premium White Tea; Two Leaves and a Bud Organic Silver Needles Tea.
Red tea is the name the Chinese use for what we call black tea. But when most English speakers say "red tea," they mean "rooibos," which comes from a plant that's native to South Africa. It's not technically tea, but it has its own charms. Rooibos tea is caffeine free with a full, fruity flavor that contains just a hint of honey. Plus, it contains ample antioxidants.
Brews for you: NOW Foods Real Tea Better Off Red Rooibos with Vanilla-Citrus Blush; Tazo Vanilla Rooibos; Yogi Tea Chai Rooibos.
Chai tea is traditionally made by brewing loose black tea with cardamom pods, star anise, ginger, clove, cinnamon, and other spices. Modern versions are also made from decaf black, green, and rooibos teas blended with any number of spices. Serve them hot in the traditional style, blended with milk and honey.
Brews for you: Numi Organic Tea Golden Chai; Rishi Tea Organic Masala Chai; Tazo Chai Tea; Choice Organic Decaffeinated Chai.
Herbal blends technically aren't "tea," but they have other gifts to offer. Made from the flowers, stems, roots, or leaves of dried plants, most are caffeine free. Flavors range from flowery to spicy and strong, and some also contain added herbs with health benefits and healing properties.
Brews for you: Tulsi Tea Sweet Rose; Numi Organic Tea Moroccan Mint; Traditional Medicinals Organic Chamomile; Rishi Tea Tangerine Ginger.
Yerba maté tea comes from a species of holly that's native to South America. It has a distinctive flavor that's grassy, herbal, slightly bitter, and a bit like a robust green tea. Maté is sold loose and in bags, and you'll also find varieties flavored with chocolate, citrus, peppermint, or other ingredients.
Brews for you: Guayaki Yerba Mate Mate Chocolatté; Maté Factor Organic Lemon Ginger; Traditional Medicinals Organic Yerba Maté.
7 Reasons to Switch to Tea
As card-carrying members of the coffee generation, we're not here to slam the bean. But tea does have a few benefits that coffee lacks:


text:
"All in favor, and voting in favor you're voting to deny the rate increase, signify by saying aye, opposed no. It's unanimous by the city council that we have voted to deny the rate increase."
Houston City Council turned down CenterPoint's request on the grounds that the energy provider is attempting to use a rate increase to fund losses in the company's pension system.
The company concedes they do need to make up lossesξbecause of declining assets in their pension fund, but they're not asking to fund pension increases.
Mayor Bill White says CenterPoint wants to raise the base fixed rate for residential customers that everyone pays to have CenterPoint service by about 40 percent. That works out to a four-dollar a month increase.
"They want to change the formula to allocate more of the cost to the residential customers. They want a higher return on equity to their shareholders than we think is appropriate. Ours is about 1.5 percent less or so return on their capital invested than their number is."
But CenterPoint Spokeswoman Alicia Dixon says the rate increase is justified.
"CenterPoint Energy has not increased rates in Houston since January, 2004. And over time, the cost for operating our system, ongoing operations and maintenance, maintaining things, the labor and benefits costs and other expenses have continued to increase. And we've also continued to make substantial capital investments in our gas distribution system."
Because the price of natural gas is down right now, even if the full rate increase goes into effect, many customers will end up with lower gas bills overall.
The two parties will bring their case to the Texas Railroad Commission, which decides the validity of the request and negotiates terms.
"We're certainly going to ask that they review the case and again they do have jurisdiction over rates for customers outside city limits, so since the city has taken this step they will go ahead and decide the rates for customers that live within the city limits and we believe we have a thorough case and we'll see what the outcome is and as I said, we hope that's going to be early next year."
In reality, there probably will be a fixed rate increase, but it likely won't be as high as CenterPoint requested. A final decision will probably come in February.

After hearing about a rash of injuries at light-heavyweight, Eliot Marshall didn't wait for the UFC to call him. He got in touch with them.
When Karlos Vemola went down, Marshall had his people contact the UFC. Apparently, the UFC liked the idea and Marshall will now face Luiz Cane on three weeks notice this Saturday on the Spike TV portion of the UFC 128 broadcast.
"I was like, 'Man, they're gonna need somebody from outside the organization to step in here and take this fight,'" Marshall said last week on Bloody Elbow Radio. "So I contacted my management and was like, 'Guys, right now, go call. Not in 10 minutes. Right now.'"
Marshall's been outside of the UFC for nearly a year since his split decision loss to Vladimir Matyushenko at the first UFC on Versus show. It was his first loss inside the Octagon, dropping him to 3-1, but he still was let go. Marshall said the UFC told him to be more aggressive and to not fight with as much caution. Three wins later, he's back and feels he's taken that advice to heart.
"No one wants to fight in the minor leagues," Marshall said. "Everyone wants to fight in the big leagues. I listened to what they said and I feel I gradually got better throughout my three fights."
Marshall is adamant about not fighting in the smaller shows again. So much so that he says he's going to retire from professional fighting whenever this UFC run is over.
"If I lose this fight and that's it, that's fine," Marshall said. "My life will just go in a different direction. This is it. However long I'm in the UFC is how long I'm fighting for. I'm 100 percent OK with that. That's just the decision I've made and I'm at peace with it. I'm at peace with the worst possible outcome that can happen March 19. Man, it's so rare that the worst possible thing ever happens. It can only be better than that. I can't control whether they're going to get rid of me or not get rid of me, or whether Dana (White) and Joe Silva like me. I wish they loved me, but I can't control it. I'll just deal with my fight and go on from there."
Marshall said he came to this decision because he's "30 years old and not a moron." He said he can do a lot of things with his life and if he can't be the champion, then it's time to do something else. When that time comes for him to exit the UFC, Marshall plans on having a jiu-jitsu school.
"That's what I've wanted to do my whole life, since I was 10 years old, is have a martial arts school," Marshall said. "Whenever it's done, I'm going to be honest with you, I hope it's in 30 fights. I hope 30 fights down the road I'm a gazillionaire with 10 UFC belts, but whenever that wave breaks is when it's gonna break and I'm OK with it. I'm really OK with it. I'm gonna whoop Cane's ass but I'm OK with whatever happens."
After being in high-pressure situations fighting in the smaller shows, where he couldn't lose if he wanted to make it back, Marshall said he feels no pressure for his UFC return.
"As far as the pressure goes, right now I feel zero pressure," Marshall said. "Absolutely none. I feel great. Whatever happens, happens. The worst thing has already happened to me. I already know what it's like to get cut and all that nonsense. The sun still comes up the next day. What are you going to do? Go out and have some fun."
You can hear the entire interview with Marshall, plus an interview with Strikeforce lightweight Lyle Beerbohm, by listening to last Thursday's edition of Bloody Elbow Radio. Bloody Elbow Radio, presented by Bad Boy, returns at 4 p.m. ET Tuesday with UFC 128's Eddie Wineland, plus more talk of the UFC/Strikeforce deal.

Ok, I know that spring brings with it renewed hopes and high expectations, but you've got to be kidding me with this one. SFGate's NL West preview (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/03/29/SPGMLORI9Q1.DTL&feed=rss.giants) includes the following quote about San Francisco's team this year:
"Zito, Matt Cain and Russ Ortiz having the makings of a solid top three in the rotation, even if they are not slotted that way."
Russ Ortiz of the 8.14 ERA in 2006 and the 6.89 ERA in 2005. I'm fine with the first two, but Russ Ortiz?!?!?! Solid?!?!? Top?!?!? Rotation?!?!? I don't think I would use any of those words to describe Russ Ortiz, unless it is followed by a pejorative term, like "top crappy pitcher", or "solidly awful". Now I don't have anything against Russ Ortiz, I'm sure he is a nice person and tries hard, not to mention probably helps old ladies across the street when he can. But how can this writer (who I assume gets paid to write) actually float this garbage out there as truth.
I guess Ortiz is fine as a fifth starter, (especially considering what we are rolling out there every fifth day) but to mention him as being an asset to a rotation is just lunacy.
I guess my flawed premise is that baseball writers have to know something about baseball in order to write about it.

A Tough Look At the White Sox
"But no single move this off-season has been as damaging as the trade for and subsequent extension to Mark Teahen, a move that is classic Kenny Williams. Teahen had bounced around positions in Kansas City, and hadn't had a good offensive season since '06, his last as a full-time 3B. Williams seemed to buy that moving Teahen back to 3B, where all metrics seemed to agree he was terrible defensively, would be a recipe for a return to his previous offensive heights, that comfort in the field would translate to comfort at the plate. Well, Teahen may be comfortable in the field, but that's only because he has the approximate range of Lay-Z-Boy recliner. There's really no excuse for the front office and scouts not know the defensive shortcomings of an intra-division foe. That Williams saw fit to lock Teahen into a multi-year deal prior to him taking a single groundball in a White Sox uniform is further indictment of an organization that relies more on gut than on raw data or even directly observable fact."

wow I am shocked!
very shocked that you can beat the Spurs when healthy but, not when they are injured :P
I'll take the win though- Raps Fan
Didn't get to watch the game…but, it looks as though it was a nailbiter. Glad to see the Raps could win a close game against an excellent defensive team.- brento.
A great game by Bosh, Jack and Wright. Also Bargnani's fantastic defense on Duncan- Don C
The Raptors turned what could have been the start of another losing streak and pulled out an improbable win.
My thinking is that Turk's knee probably made the decision to sit him over a cold, easier.
If Bargnani could ever start to care about his rebounding and f/t stats (indicating he is willing to take fouls), this could still really be a team. You have to be truly impressed with how far Bosh has come in the rebounding game over just a year ago.
It's vitally important to grab the 4-5 spot in the east and avoid the big 3 imo.
The Raps have Orlando, Boston again in a Sunday afternoon tilt and a chance for vindication, Cleveland and the Lakers amongst a host of "winnable" games this month. It would be sweet to hang one in VC for once in Orlando on Wed.- Gary
Raps Fan – last year the Rockets embarrassed the Lakers TWICE sans T-Mac and Yao. Anything is possible.- Sid

NBA players defend right to own guns, some calling it necessary for protection of families
The commissioner could hand Gilbert Arenas a severe punishment whenever he decides to take action, but it seems clear Stern can't convince NBA players not to carry firearms.
"We're grown men. We protect our families. We protect our homes," said Knicks guard Larry Hughes, who isn't licensed to own a gun. "Whatever the case may be, whoever is bearing arms, I hope everything is done, you know, legally, but you have that right."
New Jersey Nets guard Devin Harris told reporters he believed as many as 75 per cent of the league's players own guns.
"As a society, I think a lot of people have protection within their home. But I don't think it's just an NBA thing. It's just a lot of regular people have protection in their home.
"Obviously it's not a problem if you have a licence to carry a weapon. I think that's the ultimate key. If you have a licence, can't nobody dispute the reason why you have a gun."
Jackson said he stopped carrying a gun after the trouble it caused. Former teammate Al Harrington, who keeps guns at his home but said they aren't loaded, suspects there are some players who still go out with them, but added they should travel with security instead.
Still, Stern could hand out multiple punishments for carrying guns. Besides the Arenas situation, the league is also monitoring the case involving Cleveland's Delonte West, who was arrested in Maryland after officers pulled him over for speeding on a motorcycle while carrying two loaded handguns and a loaded shotgun in a guitar case.
But Ford says, "You can't tell somebody how to protect their family."
"It's not an athlete thing, it's just a family thing," he added. "There's a lot of people that have weapons. I don't think they should be making it like it's just athletes that have weapons."- Gary
Efforts like that are all we as fans as for. Time for revenge on the Magic an Celtics.- Big Dre from Sauga
@Brento…good points on the previous thread….- Dennis
Hopefully this is the start of some consistency but I ain't holding my breath.
Don't compare the Rockets with the Raptors
A) Rick Adamen is a proven coach who demands it from his players
B) Shane Battier, Luis Scola, Chuck Hayes are guys who can do the dirty work but, importantly defend!
C) They BRING INTENSITY TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, the win was great but, it won't make this team go anywhere close to the second round of the playoffs! Either get a very good defender (not likely) Or get a upgrade SG that will talk off pressure of Bosh and they are reliable shooter
*To bad Anthony Parker is not with the Raps :(- Raps Fan
Raps Fan!
You made perfect sense – great post – until that last line…you just had to add that, didn't you?
Anthony Parker couldn't have done a single thing to help this team. Seemed like a nice enough guy, but nothing more than a serviceable bench player.
Like about 98% of the players the Raptors have employed throughout their existence.- brento.

Family in UK for charity day in Dylan's memory
The parents of a little boy shot dead in a school massacre in America six months ago have returned to the UK for the first time since the tragedy.
Ian and Nicole Hockley, who met at the University of East Anglia in Norwich and have relatives in Cambridgeshire, were at a special charity day in Hampshire in memory of their son Dylan.
The six year old was one of 25 children and teachers killed at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. His parents spoke to ITV's Kerry Swain about their loss and their campaign to make the world a safer place.

"Hello Is there anybody out there?"
In a nutshell, that's the question posed by "Curiosity" that 1-ton collection of high-tech gizmos that NASA engineers guided to a spectacular landing on Mars last week.
It's the question humans have asked since we first gazed up into the heavens. Are we alone? In the vastness of space, are there not other life forms?
Mars, the fourth planet of our solar system, the Red Planet, has always inspired a special wonder.
Launched back in November, Curiosity took nearly nine months to fly 352 million miles through space. But it was the last seven minutes of the journey that dazzled the world.
The spacecraft encasing the Mars Science Lab entered the thin Martian atmosphere traveling at a heat-searing 13,000 miles per hour. Many miles above the surface, a supersonic parachute deployed and the spacecraft's heat shield broke away. After slowing the descent, the parachute detached itself and a jet-powered backpack then steered Curiosity to within a few feet of Mars, and a sky crane lowered the rover gently onto its landing spot, a deep crater at the foot of a three-mile high Martian mountain.
If scientists find no signs of life on Mars, the landing itself makes the trip worth it. The men and women sitting at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory just outside Pasadena who had labored five years to accomplish this extraordinary feat exploded in relief and joy, a moment of triumph shared by millions watching across the country and the world.
From the moment it landed, Curiosity has performed like a self-absorbed tourist, sending back dozens of pictures of itself sitting in the midst of a barren, pebble-strewn Martian landscape. But this slide show has a very serious purpose. Scientists on Earth are using the pictures to determine if all systems are working as designed, and so far they have been.
Over the next two years Curiosity will roam across Mars, looking for evidence that the planet contains elements necessary to support life. It seeks to answer the question: "Is anybody out there?" Or was there life on Mars at some point in the past?
In the months and years ahead, the country will debate the future of the space program and whether Curiosity's $2.6 billion price tag can be justified in these tough economic times. But that's a discussion for another day. As those extraordinary pictures from Mars stream to the Earth, we should marvel at what Curiosity is bringing back, and how much more could be out there.

The rural electric cooperative that generates much of the power for Eastern Kentucky "should make substantial improvements in its governance and financial condition," which has been made tenuous by an over-emphasis on low rates, says an independent audit for the state Public Service Commission.
"East Kentucky Power Cooperative already has the highest electrical rates in Kentucky, but a scathing management review says it may not be able to raise rates high enough to meet its long-term debt obligations," Ronnie Ellis reports for Community Newspaper Holdings. (Read more) In EKPC's headquarters town, Mike Wynn of The Winchester Sun sums up the audit this way: "Exploding debt and crumbling financial state have resulted from years of top-level mismanagement that sought low rates at the peril of organizational health." (Read more)
It says all options should be on the table, "up to and including disposition of some or all of EKPC's assets. . . . To the extent that continued operation in some form is appropriate, the next step would be to create (from a bottoms-up approach and giving no preference to incumbency) a revised governance structure and a new board."
The consultants were critical of the board and its response to a draft of the audit presented privately to them in November. "The board has moved away from the minimum standards for acceptable governance and it presently does not meet those standards," and "is generally unaware of the strategies currently in place at EKPC" and "is not sufficiently engaged in the business of EKPC," the audit says.
It says the board, focused on reducing its rate disadvantage with investor-owned Kentucky Utilities Co., places too much emphasis on building and operating its own generating plants, including a billion-dollar facility now in the works, and not enough attention to buying power from other suppliers. It says there should be minimum qualifications for board members. "EKPC's board needs fundamental change in its composition, membership requirements, and functioning," the audit says, and calls for "changes in certain key personnel," without naming names.
The audit says there is a "dangerous" conflict between interests of the distribution co-ops and the main co-op: "While the consumer's voice must be heard, a role of consumer advocate is not acceptable for directors" of EKPC. Distribution co-ops, whose directors are elected customer-members, are naturally more sensitive to rate issues, particularly in a region that is one of the nation's poorest.

Audit says big E. Ky. rural electric cooperative risks its viability by emphasizing low rates

What the audit report finds may be true in part; however, I have not read a more biased-sounding, unprofessional audit report. It sounds as if someone with Liberty or the PSC has an axe to grind with such flamboyant language.

Yvonne Shurley enjoys scaring people.
She gets the opportunity to scare hundreds of people who stop by her house at 17404 Deer Creek Drive in Orland Park throughout the three weeks leading up Halloween. With the help of Oak Forest handyman Randy Seeman, and Delights in Mokena working lighting, the haunt grows year after year. While Yvonne will spend the nights in costume as a character either in one of the house's windows, or out in the crypt, while husband Ralph Shurley keeps watch over the haunt and hands out candy.
Over the last decade, Yvonne Shurley has built a massive collection of props, masks, statutes, animatronic figures, smoke machines, lighting and downright ghastly pieces, such as Chomp (a blood-spouting demon with a giant, toothy jaw).
Read more about how Yvonne Shurley got started building the haunt.

Number of ratings 57 / Average Grade: N/A Submit a correction
Rude, impatient and when you address her with a problem she is condescending. I tried to find my study pattern but she is all over the place with her lectures. I wrote a decent paper as I read the book and she was not helpful but rude in grading. Attendance is mandatory. Do not take it Mondays for sake of holidays. boo
Hist 101 102
She is clear from the beginning that you need to participate. She gives lots of extra credit. She does not put up with BS but is very fair and knowledgeable about the subject.
History 101
Okay.. I hated this class, because of this teacher. The "easiness" rate was difficult for me to put. The CLASS was easy because there was hardly ANY homework. However, she is a bitter old woman who takes it out on her students most of the time. Kiss her butt and you'll pass. Other than that, not helpful and a terrible class. Avoid at all costs.
History 102
Trigas is literally THE WORST teacher I have EVER had! I NEVER use rate my professor but I'm doing this to save another person like me. I always read, but failed every test. I highlighted, made flash cards, even recorded the lecture and STILL failed the class. She's incredibly RUDE and disrespectful to the students.
Tons of opportunites for extra credit. She will not hold your hand and she is not always clear. Very little homework but reading ahead of her lecture is necessary for a good grade
she's a good teacher, yes she does not hold your hand the whole way through the course HARDLY ANY HOMEWORK though she expects you to read 1 chapter a week and give you a 10 question quiz which is mostly extra credit in the end, lots xtra credit, gives you an outline and essay prompts of EXACTLY what she tests on, pulled of an A.. TAKING HER AGAIN!
Avoid this proffesor at all costs. It's harder to pass her class than it is to look at her. Lectures are unrelated to the tests, does not respect students, and lets her personal opinions get in the way of her ability to teach the class. Never failed a class before, and I got a D in her class, even though I showed up to all classes, did all HW etc.
She's even tougher on papers than real English professors. Improper references/unbacked claims = plagiarism and a completely failed paper. But don't worry, there's only 3 giant tests (with essays). Literally half the class failed. Only history buffs with English degrees must pass this course.
I love history! favorite subject! learned a ton from reading the chapters. taking the class again from a real teacher to get my A. I wouldn't take a class from that lady again if you paid me. her extra credit is going to other teacher's lecture and writing a report & in-class debates....its to late for me. save yourself! :-)
She is the worst teacher I have ever had. She looks at you like you are stupid when you ask questions and is not kind or understanding. Her tests do not make any sense and if you dont have to take her class then i recommend you choose someone else!!!! I worked so hard in this class and got a D i have never recieved a grade lower than a C.
Trigas is horrible. Do not take this class. If you want to sit in boredom go ahead. Worst class for my first semester at Palomar! I really tried in the essays but she always gave me a NO all over it!
Trigas is a good professor, She knows a lot about history and she actually makes it a bit interesting. unfortunately she is super hard when it comes to the test. She expects us to write long essays giving complete detail of everything on the time period. How r u suppose to memorize all that? and its true she LOVES to roll her eyes
Great professor! Show up, follow the outline, prepare for essays on test days and you'll do fine. Question her for clarification, she enjoys responding. Do all of the extra credit,no matter how trivial or dumb you may think it is.
She was great. I took her for Hist. 101 and 102. She is very clear on what you need to know for the exams (follow her outline) and gives you the prompts for the essay a week before. She gives several opportunities for extra credit to boost up your grade.
Martha "Seena" Trigas explains everything you need to know for her test. But every test is like taking a 3-4 hr final in which you'll be writing an essay for at least 1.5 hours. I memorized an entire chapter word for word on the essay, & still only got 66%. Do not take her class. Though the info is clear, it's nothing short of a miracle to get an A
Trigas seems to suffer from what I like to call "Professor Ego Syndrome" (PES). She treats her students like they're wasting her time, rolls her eyes at everything, and holds to stringent expectations from which she herself is apparently exempt. Her lectures are useless, because her exams are ridiculously difficult. Don't bother with this woman!
This is the worse teacher you can ever have. Her rolling eyes when she is teaching is so annoying always get out of the the topic, too much essays on her test, very ineffective teacher.
okay, So i completly love Mrs. Trigas! She is so passionate about history and made me really like it too! Her lectures are long, but she gives you an outline and thats what the test is on, she also gives you 2 options for the writing portion of the test a week in advance so you can prepare. show up, do extra credit, youll pass guarenteed. fun class
she is hard, but she makes history more interesting, and follows her outline pretty well. not boring at all!

BA top 20 prospects (SI.com cover story)
SI.com is running a cover story on BA top 20 prospects for 2010 and 2 Rays are on it. Deezy comes in at #4 and Hellickson at #15 4. Desmond Jennings, OF, Rays Why he's here: Once he stayed healthy for a full season, Jennings showed true five-tool talent. He has size, speed, strength, explosiveness and skills. What he'll be: Jennings has many similarities to current Rays center fielder B.J. Upton, but his hitting track record is more consistent. When he arrives: The Rays have an outfield spot open presently for 2010, and Jennings should be a big league-ready, inexpensive solution. 15. Jeremy Hellickson, RHP, Rays Why he's here: A 6-foot righty from Iowa, Hellickson has surprising stuff and feel for pitching. His changeup has been his best pitch, but his fastball command took a huge step forward in 2009, allowing him to be the ace for Durham's Triple-A championship team. What he'll be: Yet another homegrown Rays pitcher for a franchise that couldn't develop any pitching in its first six or seven years. Hellickson's curve gives him a third quality pitch, and he gives the rotation another different look to play off Jeff Niemann's size, David Price's electric arm, James Shields' premium changeup and Matt Garza's power. When he arrives: Wade Davis beat him to the majors, so Hellickson may have to bide his time back at Durham in 2010. His time may have to come after a trade.

text: The football Gods are smiling, the hell with what ESPN and NFL Network would have you think, oh look at how nice the Jets are talking about the Steelers, makes me want to puke. Calling the NFC Championship Game an appetizer for the main entree of the AFC Championship, as they continue their stroking of the Packers, Aaron Rodgers, the Jets, Sanchez, the Steelers, Big Ben, and the continued disrespect of the Bears and Jay Cutler, " he had a nice game, but..." he almost threw an interception, he leads the league in " almost interceptions ". The game of the weekend is going to be the Bears vs Packers, the NFLs longest rivalry playing in the post season for only the second time ever, for a chance to go to Dallas for the Super Bowl, this game is huge. Okay I got off on a rant there, sorry. We are having an NFC Championship Party, as I'm sure a lot of you are as well, and on that menu is all about Chicago, we're gonna have Chicago Italian Beefs, Chicago Style Hot Dogs, Jays Potato Chips, as well as whatever other dishes our guest bring to pass, and of course lots of ice cold beverages to celebrate the Bears victory.

This is not a sponsored post. Just one of those "I like this. I think my readers might too" kind of things.
Full disclosure: I stink at Bible memorization.
Besides John 3:16, I pretty much couldn't recite chapter and verse to you if you held a gun to my head. It's not pretty. I'm not proud of it. But it's the truth and I don't want to paint a picture here that isn't honest.
But I know how important it is.
To have God's word hidden in your heart. A balm to your soul when you need it.
And I'd like to be better about it. And I certainly want my kids to be better about it than I am.
Because isn't that so often what we do as parents? Try to give better for our kids than we have or are?
Back when I was still pregnant with Henry, I was the nursery director at our church, and was lucky enough to be sent to a children's ministry conference put on by Bethlehem Baptist Church…you know, the church that is pastored by John Piper. NBD.
They had this little set of cards there.
Simple. Even a little hokey.
Dorky black and white line drawings with corresponding Bible verses on the back.
Kept together by a single binder ring.
A fat stack of verses. For PRESCHOOLERS. As in, ages 2-5.
I remember thinking: "Preschoolers can hardly tell you their names, there's no way they can rattle back verses with chapter citations. This is insane."
Until I walked into a Sunday School class and watched as the teacher pointed to larger versions of the drawings and the ENTIRE CLASS of itty bitty kids who probably still need help wiping their bottoms recited verses without hesitation.
I was a believer.
So I bought a stack of verses for five bucks. Swore I would do them with my yet to be born babe.
Returned home and promptly forgot all about it.
Until I recently found the card set buried in the closet. Never too late to start they say.
You know, for me.
It's a simple system. Low key. No pressure.
I copy the drawing on our chalkboard and write out the verse underneath it. We do one verse a week.
Sometimes I get bogged down by wanting things to be super fun and cute and Pin-worthy.
I actually put this whole thing off for a week because I wanted to look up fun examples of chalkboard art and try to replicate it.
But then I realized that it doesn't matter.
Not to my kids. Not to God.
Sometimes blogging messes with your head too much. You get too wrapped up in what things look like…that you miss the forest for the trees.
So my everyday handwriting will have to suffice.
We practice over meals. While I'm bustling around the kitchen making lunches. In the car.
I don't make it a big "thing". We don't sit down and get all official about it. It just is.
It's not something on my to-do list. It just happens organically. You know, because it's written on a giant 5′ tall chalkboard in the middle of my kitchen. You kinda can't miss it.
So far I am SO impressed by how quickly Henry is picking it up. Lucy is getting it but at 3 years old, needs help. Jill hears it recited over and over. She may not be able to say it back, but I know it's nestling itself in her little head.
Oh, and this mama is totally learning verses too. Alongside her littles. Which is pretty cool too.
You obviously don't need to buy cards to work on verses with your kids. But for me, I get overwhelmed. Where do I start? Which verses do I use? How long is too long? What translation?
I like having things laid out for me sometimes. Or else I'll just end up researching it to death and never actually get around to DOING it. Story of my life.
The folks at Desiring God Ministries sell these card sets for $5. The Foundation Verses are geared for Preschoolers (2-5) and the Fighter Verses are for the rest of us (6-150). They also have an iPhone and Android app if you want to be all techy about it.
You don't have to actually buy the cards or the app though…they have charts with all of it laid out for you. You could just look it up online every week or make your own (less dorky) set of cards. And then send me a set. Because it kinda drives me crazy that the artwork is not cute.
Because I have me some great priorities.
I decided to video Henry doing his verses (with a cameo by Jill). Feel free to skip this if you're not a grandma. (And yes I know he goofed up on the last part of the third verse, but I didn't have the heart to correct him on tape.)
Do you do Bible memorization with your kids? What do you use?

Vegan diet.
I'm an easy-going guy. Quirky. Silly. A lifelong learner. My friend Jess says I'm more hippy than rock-n-roll, though I feel I am more reserved than either. I play music. I work with my hands, building and creating things out of wood. I like to meet good people but I "recharge my batteries" by being alone.
I value curiosity, wonder, and joy. I don't need a lot of entertainment to keep me happy. I like to laugh. I like to serve. I like quality time. But I don't mind being alone. I get enjoyment and fulfillment from the simple things: tasty food, nice music, self-directed learning, good conversation, a nap, a laugh, a good book or movie, a bike ride, an evening walk, the chance to playfully explore some new place, time surfing the web. If you are the type of person who needs to be always going, always doing, or who just wants to go out drinking or to the clubs, you'll probably find me pretty boring.
Meyers-Briggs personality theory says I'm INFP(Idealist). Enneagram personality theory says I'm a Type 9 (Peacemaker).
My life isn't normal. I haven't done things the "usual" way. Most days I'm very happy about that. But sometimes I feel adrift, alone, overlooked, misunderstood, and uncertain because of it. I would rather live a simple, minimal life with free time than to live a lavish life that I have to work long hours to support.
I have been known to sneak into movies. I have been known to spend the day out of clothes, both alone and with friends and strangers. I'm a mix of contradictions. I like the idea of growing my own food but don't often make time for it. I like the idea of living a minimalistic life but I happen to have boxes of things stacked in my family's garage that need to be excommunicated from my life. I avoid TV but then watch certain show episodes on Netflix. Despite being raised in a conservative, evangelical environment I still like Jesus. But I have a lot of questions about all of that...
As for my diet, I've been a practicing vegan since 2004. But I've never been a "nazi" about it and am not the type to preach at anyone else about the food choices they are making. On occassions over the past couple of years I have added a few animal products back into my diet on an experimental basis to see how I feel. But most of the time I stick with what I know...

I'm a 34 year old vegan who loves animals and loves life. I am self employed. I am a plus size woman so if that is something you do not find attractive than I would not be the woman for you. I am half Caucasian half persian. I'm looking for someone who is honest, caring, loving and someone to spend the rest of my life with.

Veggie/vegan diet.
I've just passed my eleventh year of being mostly vegan. (I have an admitted weakness for baked goods and stopped fretting if a pesto sauce has traces of parmesean). It is consistent with my values with respect towards life, health, the treatment of animals, and protection of the environment. I am Jewish, and living my religion is very important to me. I'm a consumer advocate lawyer by trade, but I have a myriad of interests. I am a wine enthusiast. I enjoy cultural events... live theatre, museums, music. I like to travel and get out and enjoy the world.

I love animals, so I don't contribute to their torture if I can help it. I haven't been vegan for very long, but now that I've made the connection between animal suffering/exploitation and "food", I know it's going to be for life. I am FtM trans and generally identify as a straight male, but I feel like sexuality is really fluid, and have been attracted to men and non-binary people in the past. I believe that immigration reform, providing basic needs for people who can't provide for themselves, free education (including higher education), gender equality, and LGBTQ equality are not only desirable, but necessary. I have a job that I love working for a great customer service call center. I own a car, but I hate driving so my friend has it and I ride a bike or walk everywhere.

Terry retires from England duty
8:50pm Sunday 23rd September 2012 in National Sport News © Press Association 2014
John Terry has sensationally quit England less than 24 hours before the Football Association hearing into the Anton Ferdinand saga was expected to begin.
Chelsea captain Terry announced his immediate retirement from international football, accusing the FA of making his position "untenable".
The 31-year-old said in a statement: "I am today announcing my retirement from international football. I would like to thank the England managers who have selected me for my 78 caps. I have had great pleasure in sharing that honour with all the players that I've played with."
He added: "I would like to thank them, the fans and my family for their support and encouragement during my international career.
"Representing and captaining my country is what I dreamed of as a boy and it has been a truly great honour.
"I have always given my all and it breaks my heart to make this decision. I want to wish Roy [Hodgson] and the team every success for the future.
"I am making this statement today in advance of the hearing of the FA disciplinary charge because I feel the FA, in pursuing charges against me where I have already been cleared in a court of law, have made my position with the national team untenable.
"I now look forward to playing for Chelsea FC, and challenging for domestic and European honours, and I want to thank the fans and the club for their continued support."

ROSE Blog Interviews: Ellen Siever, co-author of Linux in a Nutshell
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
The latest release of O'Reilly's well-respected Linux in a Nutshell book recently hit bookstore shelves. Co-author Ellen Siever answers the ROSE Blog interview questions:
Q: Who are you?
A: I'm Ellen Siever. For many years I was a mainframe assembler language programmer, working at several companies in the Boston area. Later, I joined O'Reilly, where I stayed for almost 8 years in various capacities, including working in the tools group and as a writer and editor. Since leaving O'Reilly, I've continued to freelance for them, working on a book about the X Window System that never saw the light of day and on Linux in a Nutshell (which I've been an author of since the second edition). I'd used Unix before working at O'Reilly, but it was there that I got interested in Linux and open source.
Q: What are you currently doing in open source?
A: I've just finished working on the sixth edition of Linux in a Nutshell, and I regularly use Linux and other open source software, particularly OpenOffice.
Q: You're speaking to a group of women from other fields who are considering switching careers. Why should they consider moving into an open source-related career? What should they know about the open source environment to prepare them for the transition from a different field?
A: Switching careers is not always an easy thing to do, especially in a difficult economic environment. Open source is a particularly good choice because it is so open, because there is so much variety, because it's still a relatively young field and is growing, and because you can jump in on a volunteer basis to get started. Install Open Source software on your computer and experiment with it; look into the source code if you're a technical person and see how it's put together. Find a project that appeals to you and volunteer. You'll get experience, you'll provide a service, and you'll get to know other people in the open source community. This applies to everyone, female or male.
For women, I'd say that open source can sometimes feel like a men's club, and you might want to find other women to network with. One group that I know of, for example, is LinuxChix. On their web page, they describe the group and also have a list of other organizations for women working in open source. Also try social networks like Twitter or Facebook to connect with other open source women.
Q: You're speaking to a group of high school students (male and female). Why should they consider exploring career options in open source?
A: My answer to that is very similar to the previous one. One difference is that high school students have a longer timeframe and therefore have more time to explore different options. Again, a good way to get started is to experiment with the software, examine the source code, and find a project to volunteer for.
Check back later this week for my interview with Lawrence resident and Linux in a Nutshell contributor Stephen Figgins.comments powered by Disqus

Well, I reported backin February that I had a big trip planned, and I bought my tickets to the Royals vs Rockies game on June 25 as soon as they came available. I'm back from the trip now, and it was ultra-fantastic! The Royals-specific highlights:
- The Royals continue to have a perfect record (2-0, now) when I'm in attendance, beating the Rox 4-2. The game was pretty messy, with the Rockies taking an early lead and the Royals coming back mainly by taking advantage of errors, but hey, a win's a win!
- Luke Hochevar recovered impressively from a rocky (pun semi-intended) first two innings
- Every time Ross Gload came to bat, I yelled, "Gload will explode!!" and hoped I'd see someone turn around in recognition. No one did, but it was still fun, especially since he did - two doubles.
- The roar of the crowd when Joakim Soria came in to close the game was an awesome thing to behold. Also, I saw him referred to as the "Mexecutioner" in the following day's KC Star, so I guess that's now an official nickname for him - did we originate that here?
- My wife, who is far more awesome than I deserve, had the Royals put "Welcome Mattis Keller, our most loyal fan" (no offense, loyal2) on the scoreboard.
- Even more amazing than that, I actually appeared (with my 10-year-old son and my 5-month-old baby daughter) on the scoreboard during one of the random "fan-cam shots" around the 4th inning. (The rest of my family was either sitting out of range or was on a bathroom break.) Just the thing to make the evening perfect - the image in my mind kept me energetic for the whole drive to Branson that night.
- The Royals drove us from the stadium entrance back to our van in one of their courtesy golf carts. I think this was the highlight of the evening for my children who are not yet capable of truly appreciating baseball.
Only two things I'd criticize: I was quite disappointed at the long line to claim my "will-call" tickets, and I'm pretty sure it's because that was also a ticket SALES line, I don't think there was a dedicated line for picking up already-purchased tickets. I expected that pre-buying my tickets would guarantee speedy entry to the stadium. Instead, I was still on line when the national anthem was sung, and I was practically in a panic that after having driven 25 hours to get to the K, I was going to miss some of the game (fortunately, I didn't, just barely). Also, the general parking is a HUGE walk from the stadium. I'm sure I passed at least two completely empty lots on my way from where we were directed to park to the stadium (though the aforementioned golf-cart ride later made up for this.
All in all, it was great to be there in the flesh again! Now, I'm back in New York, rooting from afar - go Royals!
