ChewyBees, I believe you may be correct. They have found that evolution happens far faster than anyone ever thought possible. Who can say how we shape humanity by the state of our spirits and minds. The Eastern Meadowlark has a specific song. If you take the E.Lark and move it to California, the following generation has a different song,like the Western Meadowlark.
Catch wild foxes and raise them in cages for their fur. Within a couple of generations of captivity, their ears begin to fold over like dogs ears, their coats become mixed colors, the tails take a puppylike curve. They are becoming domestic dogs.
And then there are the things that happen which have no function. My cousin Larry had no pigment in his hair. Hair, eyebrows, body hair all pure white. He tanned deeply, he had dark eyes. It gave him an arresting kind of beauty that had no evolutionary function. The sun shining on him made him sparkle. I think the Chinese boy with the blue eyes is a similar anomaly. blue eyes a a result of little or no pigment in the iris.
I 've never known of two brown eyed people of this culture having a blue eyed child. The night vision is abnormal. What the answer to this is , I don't know, but something's up .
It can be just a random mutation. Nature does that all the time. I once saw a woman who looked like a hybrid. It was a jam session in a gazebo on a warm summer evening. This woman stood up and sang and her voice was wonderful. It had a silky, silvery quality. But she was so strange looking. She had barely enough hair to cover her scalp and her skin was pale and bluish. She seemed to have no muscle tone. I thought that perhaps had been ill or had a type of alopecia. her reception that night was loud applause and people asking for more. The next week she came back with her husband and her son who was about 4 years old. The chld looked just like her. His skin was pale, colorless, more bald than not. His head was large and his large eyes seemed too large, too prominent. Her husband was a perfectly normal guy who seemed to adore her.
My first thought was "she is an alien hybrid." But who knows. That may have been a genetic anomaly as well.
He does have very pretty blue eyes though. Love you. Mich
It doesn't make the child a starchild just because his eyes glow and he can see at night. LOL...
We would all love to think so. But...
There are people who have a very rare skin condition where they burn very easily in the sun because they are allergic to UV light and as a result are better for school learning at night. And in these cases, these kids can see better more clearly at night.
Much Love to You All Though, Mich
The glowing eyes in the dark is light reflecting off the retina. His pupils must dilate extremely wide.
He is a beautiful child. Probably has an important role to fulfill in the future. Thank you for posting.
I hope they don't bother this child with too much media attention...I hope he will have a good life.
Neat! Llyod Pye of the StarChild project sent me the same link this morning!!

12Quotables: Chris Brown Has Totally Grown Up
"I haven't been as mature and thought out in the past, so, me growing now, it's showing my progression. I used to use my Twitter account to vent, but now I mostly use it for marketing and promotions. Even if the media asks me something, if it's cool then it's 'What's up?' But if it's anything that's too negative, I don't care to respond."
- Chris Brown discusses his maturity in a new interview.
LOL, you guys! LOL! The interview was just published, but it was obviously done before last weekend, when Chris decided to verbally attack a comedian by telling her that he was going to shit on her retina on Twitter. Isn't that funny? Because he was just talking about how he's above responding to people with negative comments on Twitter, and then he just did exactly that. You couldn't make this stuff up!
Just kidding, you could definitely make this stuff up. We could just make a Chris Brown mad libs post, it would be so easy!
Chris Brown is a terrible person. The latest proof of this is ________. Isn't that awful and completely unsurprising? And meanwhile, Rihanna tweeted ________, so you know they're definitely back on! She needs to ________, but whatever, because she'll always ________. And Chris Brown will never ________, as I'm sure we all learned when he ________. So we'll just have to ________.
Anytime Chris ever screws up, boom, there you go. It probably won't be too long before we get to use it. Because Chris Brown is a giant ________.

a giant twat.
i bet this post generates the most hits because of chris brown
i know it will get the most responses ………you get hits….rhianna get hits…. everyone happy no?
by the way chris brown phone snatching incident …he was cleared cause i know you want the truth out there
Tran also issued a statement to police during the investigation — in which she said the woman who owned the cell phone had stuck the phone into Brown's car … and struck Karrueche in the front of the head. During the incident, Tran claims the woman dropped the phone in the car … and it was eventually tossed out the window.
Ultimately, prosecutors say … it's plausible that the woman did put her phone in the car … and that Brown simply "[removed] from the vehicle an object which didn't belong there" … and therefore didn't break any laws.
TMZ obtained video of the woman immediately after the incident, and she was clearly agitated, telling police, "He snatched my phone!"
This is a big deal for Brown — because if he WERE prosecuted, it would've triggered a probation violation for the singer in L.A., where he's still on probation for the Rihanna beating.
nana boo boo
disregard that…… she hacked my phone …i do not have the slightest on why she signed it ….
hi sarah
I can't believe he #tried it.
What were the odds of someone snapping a photo of this guy in mid-sneeze?
Nothing SCREAMS "personal growth" like announcing how mature you are today, compared to the giant douchebag you were yesterday. Way to go, Chris!

In 1941, the same extraordinary vintage year that saw the release of Orson Welles' Citizen Kane, John Ford's How Green Was My Valley, Howard Hawks' Sergeant York and Ball of Fire, John Huston's first film, The Maltese Falcon, Alfred Hitchcock's Suspicion, Raoul Walsh's High Sierra and The Strawberry Blonde, among other memorable films, came the third and fourth brilliant comedies in a row from America's first writer-director of the sound era, the incomparable Preston Sturges. Early that year, there was Sturges' scintillating romantic farce with Henry Fonda and Barbara Stanwyck, The Lady Eve; and right at the end, an utterly unique achievement—light, even slapstick, comedy that veers into heavy drama—about a pampered hit-making Hollywood movie director who decides to find out what life is really like out there and does, with a fateful vengeance in Sullivan's Travels (available on DVD).
Superbly stoic and deadpan Joel McCrea plays Sullivan -- a mega-box office winner with forgettable items like Ants in Your Pants and Hey Hey in the Hayloft -- who gets his studio to buy for him a deadly serious heavily social-conscious novel titled O Brother, Where Art Thou (not to be confused with the Coen Bros. picture, an inside tip of the hat to Sturges) so that he can adapt it into a picture of substance, weight and stature. "But with a little sex in it," hopes his dubious studio head. Before Sullivan can embark on such a meaningful project, however, he feels that first he must rough it, go down to Skid Row with no money in his pockets, see how the less fortunate live, where the homeless hang out.
For a while Sully (as his associates call him) is joined on his misbegotten adventure by an aspiring young actress he's run into, played with a sexy, savvy kind of candor by Veronica Lake in her very best film role. Unfortunately for Sully, life intrudes in a deeply ugly way and pretty soon he finds himself whacked on the head (causing amnesia for some time) and eventually part of a terrible Southern chain gang with a mercilessly brutal warden. In this miserable circumstance, he comes to learn his biggest lesson about life: that being able to make people laugh is a great and precious gift which should be treasured because, "Laughter," as Sully says at the end, "may not be much, but it's all some people have in this cockeyed caravan. Boy!"
The film's satirical thrusts at Hollywood celebrity, unreality and pretentiousness are still timely as ever, the pace is breakneck and all the performances absolutely topnotch. How could any movie in which the two leads sit at a soda fountain and discuss Ernst Lubitsch be anything but sublime? Sullivan's Travels was Sturges' way of saying to the comedy makers that theirs was the most important work, a sardonic nudge to Frank Capra and the Academy to state that for a troubled public, social-minded seriousness can never match solid healthy laughter.
For more of my thoughts on Preston Sturges, see Hail the Conquering Hero in Picture of the Week 11/30/11; and see Preston Sturges in Special Links 6/8/11.
Mark J. McPherson | March 14, 2012 12:20 AM
Jesse, no disrespect to your effort intended. Sturges, being writer and director was in a then unique position to bring the script properly to life. One of the things I've read about Sturges was that it was his frustration over Mitchell Leisen's direction of Sturges' script for 1937's "Easy Living" that led him to become the writer and director of his latter films. If I'm recalling correctly, Sturges felt that some of the edge and sharpness was dulled by Leisen's sentimental touches. I happen to love "Easy Living", particularly the raucous signature Sturges elements. If there is more of the traditional Hollywood love story engrafted onto his script, it goes down easy, as Ray Midland never again as funny and Jean Arthur never more lovely.
My long-winded point is that it's a difficult trick to pull off and the execution from script to screen is particularly dicey with darker comedies. I haven't read your search script (though I'd be happy to) but I had in mind "comedies" like "The Cable Guy" which had a good cast and a dependable premise but wore out its welcome through a wrong-headed desire to disturb. It was no fun, nonsense. Too many movies edge toward cheap outrage and humiliation instead of following their characters' comic fate. It's quite a lot of hard work to plot a comedy through to an internally consistent and consistently funny conclusion. There are far more great gag writers than there are great comic writers. Its hard enough to write and direct and act funny at all. You can sometimes feel the point in films where the initial comic premise and character quirks begin to lose steam And the director begin to flail around looking for away home. But you are right. Even Sturges didn't gain such command without taking chances and risks.
Jesse L | March 12, 2012 5:27 PM
Piquent observations Mark. "Best left to the masters" I disagree with though. How is one to broaden one's writing scope or skills if one doesn't take some chances (I know this is anathema to Hollywood execs)? I'd wish you'd read my script. I'd be curious to hear your feedback on it.
Mark J. McPherson | March 12, 2012 2:05 PM
I've always thought that the reason Sturges' was able to pull off the tonal shift was the doubling and trebling of the story -- a movie about someone trying to make a movie, in which the director wants to move away from light fluff to heavy, dark social issues. And Sturges is merciless in cutting everyone up about it, even John L. Sullivan for his pretension and presumption and certainly the studio heads who humor Sullivan, provided they get what they need ("But with a little sex in it."). And then after ridiculing the whole concept Sturges proceeds to surprise by adding dramatic elements to the following farcical lark of Sullivan's exploratory decent into "gritty realism". Sullivan gets rather more than he bargained for, and I remember being disoriented and ill-at-ease the first time I saw "Sullivan's Travels", as the repartee and pratfalls give way to something John Garfield might have more comfortably played. Sturges was such a master stylist, of course, that you can't help but be brought along and discomfort soon gave way to curiosity as to whether and how he'd pull it off. Sturges was virtuoistic in making the tonal shift, and you're left realizing that you need to watch all of his films again to see and appreciate that virtuosity beneath all the comedy.
And then the whole things comes back on itself, Sullivan has a rescue and an epiphany about the meaning of life and laughter and all that ("There's a lot to be said for making people laugh. Did you know that's all some people have? It isn't much ... but it's better than nothing in this cockeyed caravan.") All these years later and I'm still tickled to ponder where, if anywhere, Sturges was being "serious" in "Sullivan'Travelses". Its easy to see the film's finale as his bottom line, but who knows where that joke ends?
Capra usually more self-consciously and ploddingly moved from light-to-dark. "It's A Wonderful Life" is an obvious example, but the scene where George and Mary are on the phone together with Sam that suddenly and almost violently morphs intmarriageaige proposal is a rapid-fdemonstrationtion of the dramatic impact of tonal shifts. Its best left to the masters, though, as any number of "darkly edgy" recent, nasty and deeply unfunny comedies show.
Jesse L | March 10, 2012 4:43 PM
Sullivan's Travels has long been one of my favorite films in Sturges' ouvre. I can't believe I just typed the word "ouvre." I hope I spelled it correctly. Anyway, the shift in tone is important to this film. Recently, I submitted a screenplay of mine to a noted screenplay competition. I purchased the "feedback" as well. Whoever read the script (it is a rom-com) noted that it has a shift in tone that they found "jarring." BUT I MEANT IT TO BE THAT WAY! The whole story is about the difference between fantasy and reality. They felt I should keep it light and funny all the way through. Obviously, they've never seen Sullivan's Travels. Sometimes a shift in tone is part of the story. I notice that when Goodfellas shifts tone halfway through, critics hailed this as genius. I love Marty Scorcese but he wasn't the first one to do this.
Mark J. McPherson | March 7, 2012 3:25 PM
However the name is spelled, I can't help but laugh every time I think of McCrea learning, in "The Palm Beach Story", that his wife has cooked up the alias of "Captain McGlew" for him! McCrea had this marvelous, deadpan dignity about him, that served him so well in westerns ("Ride the High Country" was a high point) but which you wouldn't necessarily expect would work comically. But it did!
Blake Lucas | March 6, 2012 2:25 AM
"How could any movie in which the two leads sit at a soda fountain and discuss Ernst Lubitsch be anything but sublime? "
My favorite line read on the internet all week, with a wit so appropriate to SULLIVAN'S TRAVELS.
I don't agree with Fungo, that is to say I do agree very much about Joel McCrea's talents but not that McCrea is underappreciated. It may have long been true but not anymore. You should see the reaction to his being TCM's Star of the Month in May on some of the other blogs--where SULLIVAN'S TRAVELS leads off.
McCrea did it all well--and there are in truth many movies that show it. I believe I can state with some authority that he is justly revered by fans of Westerns, in which he specialized postwar, as one of the genre's greatest and most convincing actors.

Regarding the lawsuit against Sundance (2012 Abbinante vs. Sundance H12S00037)
The lawsuit alleges that Sundance is committing fraud by not returning submission fees to filmmakers whos films were not screened and evaluated by Sundance.
"Because Sundance has prior knowledge of the unmanageable volume of films received (11,700 films for the 2012 festival) and did not return fees to filmmakers whos films were not screened and evaluated, Sundance is guilty of fraud." quoted by Darryl Abbinante and continued to state "It's simply not humanly possible for any committee to screen and evaluate 11,700 films." Sadly, the judge ruled in favor of Sundance stating "Sundance is not legally required to screen and watch every film submission in it's entirety." The judge also stated
"if you can not prove Sundance is not watching at least 30 seconds of each and every film submitted, then you can not prove fraud."
So the mystery behind Sundance has been discovered. Sundance is not liable to watch every film submission from start to finish and evaluate them. This is information that would've been very useful to the over 11,700 filmmakers prior to them submitting their films and submissions fees to Sundance for the 2012 festival, bringing Sundance an additional income revenue of $500,000 to $625,000 for the 2012 season.
Sundance is a well polished money making machine. They have found loop hole in the system and are exploiting filmmakers by the tens of thousands. I was one of them. I feel sorry for next year when (estimated) 13,500 filmmakers will blindly send in their films and submissions fees chasing a dream that no longer exists.
Kudos to Sundance and their staff for effectively creating a business that thru the years grows larger every year, despite the recession, by continuing to dangle the carrot of success in front of every filmmaker's face with promises of discovery and a film sale. Pure Genius.
Darryl Abbinante
Indy Filmmaker
Over 7000 film festivals require filmmakers to submit their film to 'without a box'.
'Without a box' is owned by another business (IMDb), which is in-turn owned by an even larger corporation (Amazon.com).
Filmmaker Magazine, Indiewire, Film Threat, and most all other Independent Film News sources are all being bought out, controlled and monopolized by one big corporate entity, there soul existence is to sell you a "dream" not to report truth or anything against Sundance, this is where most of their money comes from, advertising, film schools, and film festivals.
Sundance does not in fact watch the 12,000 film submissions, they have gone 'on record' to admit that watching 15 seconds or more of your film, is in fact legally within their obligations.
Sundance has made many millions, of dollars off of film submissions in over 25 years of existence.
Filmmaker Magazine, Indiewire, or Film Threat does not and will not report this, they cant.
The filmmakers do NOT own their films that they submitted anymore.
Did you know you "gave up that right" when you signed or clicked the agreement?
You didn't read.
Use Withoutabox (WAB) = Surrender Content Rights
Withoutabox's Terms of Service agreement (by signing into your account you are agreeing)
Under Item 13 it states that while Withoutabox (WAB) 'does not acquire any right or ownership' of your work when you use their service YOU AGREE TO GRANT Withoutabox IRREVOCABLE, non-exclusive, ROYALTY-FREE, perpetual and fully sublicensable right to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, create derivative works from , distribute and display ANY MATERIAL YOU SUBMIT TO WITHOUTABOX INCLUDING CONTENT throughout the world IN ANY MEDIA. You further grant WAB and their sublicensees the right to use the name you submit in connection with the material.
Did you know that? In short, the moment you log onto WAB you give them permission FOREVER to sell your film anywhere in the world. They keep all money earned from your film (and anything else you upload or add to their site).
WAB is stealing all the content they can from naive and vulnerable filmmakers.
In years to come your film will be free to be uploaded, or small fees required to watch it, and you won't receive a dime, and who would want to pay for your film now?
Sundance Film Festival has cleared their reputation, Adam Montgomery has cleared Sundance's reputation, as also John Cooper. The festival has no legal obligation to watch your film.
This means that Sundance Film Festival is NOT A SCAM, IS NOT FRAUDULENT, AND IS NOT CORRUPT, all postings are therefore removed, the film Scam Fest is irrelevant and will not be eidted or completed, because our "burden of proof is irrelevant, all videos, all protest videos against Sundance have been removed
We encourage all filmmakers to keep submitting their films.

Sturges was obviously a brilliant writer and director, and in Sullivan's Travels he truly outdid himself. This film is so good, it's hard to watch - like staring into a searchlight. But for me the film is also important as one of the few that properly highlights the abilities of Joel McCrea - and one of even fewer that gets much circulation today.
For some reason, McCrea doesn't seem to be as well-remembered as other leading men of the period. But he has the same self-deprecating likability as Cary Grant or Spencer Tracy, and, as demonstrated in this film, as much ability to convey depth of emotion as the best of his contemporaries. Thinking about Sullivan's Travels, I'm hard pressed to imagine any actor who could have done what McCrea did with the part, veering effortlessly from comedy to pathos and back again.
There will never be a shortage of film buffs to sing the praises of Preston Sturges. But I wish there were more who'd keep alive the memory of Joel McCrea, a guy who always seemed able to make a weak movie watchable, and a good movie a classic.

You're right, Mark, it's "cockeyed" not "crazy". We'll fix it shortly. And thanks for quoting that
brilliant speech about poverty; it's so powerful. Apt phrase, yours: "genital comedies"...
Mark J. McPherson | March 3, 2012 10:31 PM
The version I have and love so well has it as a "cockeyed" as contrasted with a "crazy" caravan. But thanks so much for returning to peak Sturges. 70 years on and its still more stylish, knowing and sharp than all the infantile, genital comedies in the last 2 decades put together.
There's a moment of brilliant and perceptive social commentary between John L and his butler, played by the great Robert Greig:
Burrows: Good morning, sir.
Burrows: I don't like it at all, sir. Fancy dress, I take it?
John L. Sullivan: What's the matter with it?
Burrows: I have never been sympathetic to the caricaturing of the poor and needy, sir.
John L. Sullivan: Who's caricaturing?
John L. Sullivan: I'm going out on the road to find out what it's like to be poor and needy and then I'm going to make a picture about it.
Burrows: If you'll permit me to say so, sir, the subject is not an interesting one. The poor know all about poverty and only the morbid rich would find the topic glamorous.
John L. Sullivan: But I'm doing it for the poor. Don't you understand?
Burrows: I doubt if they would appreciate it, sir. They rather resent the invasion of their privacy, I believe quite properly, sir. Also, such excursions can be extremely dangerous, sir. I worked for a gentleman once who likewise, with two friends, accoutered themselves as you have, sir, and then went out for a lark. They have not been heard from since.
Burrows: You see, sir, rich people and theorists - who are usually rich people - think of poverty in the negative, as the lack of riches - as disease might be called the lack of health. But it isn't, sir. Poverty is not the lack of anything, but a positive plague, virulent in itself, contagious as cholera, with filth, criminality, vice and despair as only a few of its symptoms. It is to be stayed away from, even for purposes of study. It is to be shunned.

Remember earlier this year when Amazing Spider-Man actor Andrew Garfield played pick-up basketball with a bunch of kids while wearing his Spidey suit, and the general consensus was that real life Spider-Man sucked at basketball? It was a sad day for anybody who grew up reading comics and fantasy booked comic book sports (real talk: the first pick in your comic book basketball draft is Bullseye, or you're stupid.)
And1 Mixtape Tour star Grayson "The Professor" Boucher is healing that wound.
After the jump is a clip of him playing basketball dressed as Spider-Man, and it's everything you wanted out of the Andrew Garfield clip.
The only thing missing is him dunking and sticking to the backboard.
Uh, make that happen, somebody.

Effingham Daily News
Lauren and Madison Ohnesorge have always been a package deal at Altamont, with the senior twins playing varsity volleyball, basketball and softball together.
It stayed that way even as they looked to take their softball careers to the next level.
Now, they're Lincoln Land Community College's package deal, signing to play softball for the Springfield-based community college Thursday morning at Altamont High School.
The college was up for debate, but staying together was always the plan, according to the sisters.
"I never even thought of going to a different college than her," Lauren Ohnesorge said.
Madison, the younger of the two twins, agreed with her sister.
"If it wasn't a possibility, it would have been really hard," she said. "We really looked into being with each other."
The twins were a key part of an Altamont team that reached Super-Sectionals last year before falling 4-2 to Goreville in Johnston City.
With Madison serving as the slap-hitting leadoff hitter and Lauren providing some power and opposite field hitting ability in the middle of the order, they were a solid tandem for the Indians.
Madison was a member of the ICA 1A All-State second team, earned honorable mention on the all-NTC team and was an Effingham Daily News All-Area first teamer in 2013. Lauren was a member of the All-NTC first team, second team ICA all-state and EDN All-Area honorable mention.
Now, they're looking to take that up north to Springfield.
"It's really now kicking in we have a certain spot to go to after graduating," Madison said. "Now that we actually signed today, it's surreal."
It's not like Lincoln Land and the surrounding area is unfamiliar to the Ohnesorges either. Their sister, Morgan, goes to St. John's College in Springfield.
Also, Altamont alumna Katie Lange was a major contributor for the Loggers team that reached the NJCAA Division II National Championship tournament in Clinton, Miss. last season. Windsor alumna Lindsay Floyd (First team all-NTC, third team ICA all-State, all-EDN first team) whom Altamont is familiar with from NTC battles, is also on the roster.
It was feeling-based decision too, as Lange's influence helped the process start but the college's atmosphere did most of the work.
"I liked the comfort," Lauren said. "Whenever we toured, they made us feel at home, it was very homey and it just felt right."
Lauren and Madison have work to do before they get to Lincoln Land — namely, finishing school, concluding their basketball season and making another run with the Lady Indian softball team, which returns many of its starters from 2013, including the Ohnesorges and reigning NTC MVP Deidre Ledbetter.
Their new coaches at Lincoln Land have told them what to expect and what to work on, and the sisters are excited.
"We both can play the outfield very well," Madison said. "We've talked with them and figured out what our roles are, but we both need to improve on our speed to help our team out."

Internal promotions top 40% on campus
By : Rachel Coker
The University's internal promotion rate for professional positions has ranged from 40 to 48 percent in each of the last five years.
Hiring from within is a reflection of campus policy as well as philosophy, noted Sylvia Hall, assistant vice president for human resources. The University's strategic plan and its contract with United University Professions (UUP) emphasize the issue.
"When you hire excellent people," Hall said, "you want to provide career opportunities for them."
The benefits of internal promotion are clear, she said. Employees want opportunities to advance, flexibility and skills that travel well. Promotions allow the University to retain employees' knowledge of the campus and its traditions.
When an employee and the University develop a trust over the course of someone's career, that results in a certain loyalty and pride, too.
"How can you buy that?" Hall asked. "You can't buy that with a salary."
Darryl Wood, UUP chapter president, agreed. "I am convinced that once somebody realizes, 'I'm being paid essentially what I'm worth,' that money becomes less of an issue," he said. "At that point, it's all about other forms of recognition."
That can mean a change in title or even being sent to a conference, he said.
"The most important thing, and it really starts with individual supervisors, is to recognize the work that the individuals in their office do," Wood said. Honest, regular feedback and clear expectations help employees succeed, he noted.
The University's agreement with UUP requires that internal candidates be considered first. They often then get mixed in with a wider search that includes external candidates.
Wood said it should be easier and simpler to seek an internal promotion, but he's pleased that there is a process as well as an appeal mechanism.
Hall noted the University seeks a balance between promoting from within and seeking fresh thinking from outsiders. Diversity is also a concern, she said.
Still, she believes Binghamton is doing an exceptional job with internal promotion. At another university center in the SUNY system, the rate hovers around 14 percent, she said.
"I think we're leading the pack," Hall said. "Binghamton is a very special place to work. I think we really do invest in our people."
Terry Kelley-Wallace is a prime example of that tradition. The 1986 graduate of the University took a part-time job as assistant to the chair of the physics department in 1987.
After 13 years in that position, she became assistant registrar. A mere five months later, Kelley-Wallace was promoted to associate registrar.
That's the job she held until about a year ago, when she was named acting registrar. Kelley-Wallace recently was appointed registrar.
"It's been a really good progression," she said. Kelley-Wallace now supervises about 12 people and said she does what she can within Civil Service Employee Association rules to advance existing staff members. "I believe that if you have a good internal candidate you should take advantage of that experience," she said. "I think it's important to show people that you've recognized their dedication."
Kelley-Wallace, who has been a UUP member throughout her nearly 20-year career at the University, is now taking advantage of the "space available" program to work on a master's degree in public administration at a reduced cost.
"It's a great benefit," she said. It's also exactly the kind of education that will help her in her new job and prepare her for challenges to come.
Participating in the MPA program gives her a chance to experience life as a student again, which keeps her grounded in the issues people are dealing with on campus. "You can have a lot more patience and understanding with students" when you, too, have exams to prepare for and homework to do.
Kelley-Wallace enjoys the atmosphere on campus and the students and professional staff at the University. So does her boss, Michael McGoff.
McGoff, now vice provost for strategic and fiscal planning, began as a research assistant for the Center for Integrative Studies in the School of Advanced Technology 39 years ago.
Like Kelley-Wallace, he said one key to his success is that he doesn't pass up opportunities. Serving on a committee or volunteering for a new project helps employees add to the toolbox they'll need for bigger jobs down the road, he noted.
"If you just go in with a positive attitude, that's half the battle," he said.
McGoff holds bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees from the University. He came from a humanities background and then worked in a technical school, he said, and that helped him gain the respect of people in both of those worlds. He also credits good organizational and communication skills with helping him to advance.
McGoff, whose father never enjoyed his job as a police officer, said he considers himself fortunate to work with supportive and collegial colleagues.
"The most important thing is I love this place," McGoff said. "I look forward to coming into work every day. I love my job. I've been a very lucky guy."

Apple, LTE and 2012. What happens?
So, it's nearly 2012. Every carrier is throwing money at their brand-spanking new LTE networks and they want to see some return on investment. Android has been quick to jump on the LTE train, with WP7 rumored to be not far behind. Naturally, everyone seems to be assuming iOS will do the same.
Just one problem: LTE still annihilates the battery life of devices, the one thing that iOS devices are generally known for being big on. They've already passed on it for one year, what about next year?
So I'll throw this out there - do you think Apple will implement LTE differently to everyone else?
A few completely baseless assumptions of my own of what might happen:
- Allow app developers to choose whether their app really does need LTE turned on to begin with. This would allow Netflix turn on LTE needed for faster movie downloads, but allow a Twitter user to leave it off as they aren't pulling in the amount of data LTE would really need.
- Inform the user what LTE is and what the impact is has on your device is. Provide the user a new 'Enable LTE' switch which leaves something at the top of the screen (Ala Personal Hotspot) to let you know that YOUR DEVICE HAS A REALLY REALLY BATTERY EATING SETTING TURNED ON RIGHT NOOOOOOOOW!
- Talk up the benefits and let the end user see what the tradeoff is. Replace 'Enable 3G' with 'Enable LTE'. This would be a bit of a copout, tbh.
- Give it another year. Obviously not optimum, but you never know.

Criminal Justice
Reward Offered for 24 Alleged Mexican Drug Lords: Up to $7M Each
Posted Mar 24, 2009 11:04 AM CDT
By Martha Neil
As escalating violence related to cross-border drug trafficking causes increasing concern in both Mexico and the United States, the government there is offering a record-breaking bounty of $2 million each for 24 alleged drug lords.
With an additional $5 million offered by the U.S. concerning some of the drug-trafficking suspects, that adds up to as much as $7 million each, reports the Associated Press.
However, given the obvious risks involved, it's uncertain whether there will be many takers, Stephen Meiners tells the news agency. He is a Latin America analyst for the U.S. intelligence service Stratfor.
Meanwhile, though, cartel leaders trying to eliminate rivals apparently are sometimes willing to inform on opponents even without the incentive of a monetary reward:
"So far that's been enough incentive to phone in these tips," he says. "I kind of doubt that the people making these calls would want to come forward to claim reward money."

Researchers say a vaccine is on the way that will help prevent a virus blamed as one of the leading causes of birth defects.
The CDC tells us that anywhere between 50 to 80 percent of adults have been infected with a virus called Cyto-Megalovirus or CMV. It usually just causes mild flu-like symptoms and the virus, itself, is really no big deal unless a woman gets it during pregnancy. That's when CMV can be devastating.
"CMV is the second most common cause of mental retardation in children after down's syndrome and is the most common infection that cause deafness in babies. The goal of this vaccine is to try to confer immunity to a woman before delivery and then prevent transmission of CMV to the developing baby," said Dr. Mark Schleiss, University of Minnesota.
It looks promising in the lab but testing on humans is still a few years away. So , for now Dr. Schleiss says awareness is our best strategy. People who are in close contact with young children are most at risk since the virus is spread through saliva and other body fluids. So, if you are a woman who is trying to get pregnant and you work around children Dr. Schleiss suggests you talk to your doctor about CMV testing to see if you have already been exposed and don't know it.
If you'd like to know more about CMV. Every year, one percent of the babies born in the US, about 40,000 are born with CMV about 10 to 15 percent of newborns with congenital CMV end up with a long-term disability like mental retardation, cerebral palsy and deafness. CMV also can damage the placenta, leading to miscarriage.
Cytomegalovirus is found widely around the world and is a type of herpes virus. According to the NIH, CMV infects between 50 to 80 percent of all US adults by age 40. There is no cure for it, although commonly it causes few if any symptoms.
CMV can be passed from person to person through contact with infected body fluids, such as saliva, urine, blood and mucus. It also can be transmitted sexually or from infected blood products infected adults occasionally develop a mononucleosis-like illness, which can include symptoms such as sore throat, fever, body aches and fatigue.
At present there is no effective treatment for congenital CMV. However, researchers are investigating whether an antiviral drug called Ganciclovir may help babies with congenital CMV. Ganciclovir is used to treat adults with AIDS or other immune-system problems who have CMV-related eye infections.
A woman who contracts CMV for the first time during pregnancy has about a 40 percent risk of passing the virus on to her fetus. A woman can pass CMV on to her baby at any stage of pregnancy. However, studies suggest that babies are more likely to develop serious complications when their mother is infected in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy.
The study is published in the Journal of Infectious Disease.

Earth-shattering analysis: Kendall Wright was brought in to improve this offense, hopefully vaulting it into elite territory. Here's where it gets a bit more interesting though. Perhaps no receiver prospect in this recent draft can impact the offense in as many different ways as Wright. Before we go further, let's define the "space player." For that, I'll turn it over to Chris Brown of SmartFootball & Grantland.com:
These naturally gifted players need just a little bit of open territory to operate, and when they get it they incinerate defenses. They operate in the area between the short dive up the middle and the long bomb down the sideline. They are "space players."
Players like Sproles, on the other hand, just need a glimpse of open field, created either by defensive alignments or the coach's schemes, and once there they thrive. They are looking for creases between defenders and one-on-one situations against guys unable to cover them.
In coaching the Saints, Payton takes advantage of the three best ways to use space players. First are screen passes — plays designed to get the runner into open space, preferably with blockers ahead of him. Second is the space player's role as an underneath receiver, where he provides an easy option for a quarterback while drawing coverage away from downfield receivers. And, finally, a space player can be a runner on draws and sweeps after the earlier plays have forced the defense to substitute favorable (for the offense) personnel.
The question becomes "Is Kendall Wright a space player?"Kendall Wright and the Baylor Offense
Before projecting forward, it's important to see how he was used at Baylor. If he wasn't a space player there, then it's hard to fathom he'll be one here. Taking a cue from SuperHorn's Locker study, I went back and tracked Wright's contributions in the four games available. I tried to group the types of routes and touches together, and came up with the following (these are all Madden-ized terms, as I don't know technical names):
2 Reverses
2 Deep Hitches/Comebacks (>10 yds)
2 Handoffs
2 Deep Crosses
4 Inside/Outside Slants
5 Wide Screens/Bubble Passes
5 Intermediate Hitches/Comebacks (~10 yds)
6 Short Hitches/Comebacks (<10 yds)
8 Deep Posts + 1 Deep Out
As an aside, he also had 3 bubble screen pass attempts (only 2 of which he actually threw on). It's irrelevant to this post, but I found it interesting still.
A few specific examples:
The TCU Tape: At 1:37, Wright catches a pass near the sideline, shifts to his right and beats the defender for a first down. In this case, Wright takes a play that's going nowhere and flips it for a first down. It's a nifty play, and one that can really help keep a drive going. It's not going to make the ESPN highlights at the end of the day, but those types of plays are crucial for an offense.
The Oklahoma Tape: At 1:01, Wright takes an inside slant pass and busts it for over 50 yards. Those types of passes are great safety valve plays. It's a higher percentage throw that can really help out a young QB against the blitz.
The Texas Tape: At 1:35, Wright takes a reverse pitch from Griffin, beats a defender and goes for 20 yards.
The Washington Tape: I thoroughly enjoyed watching every minute of this tape as Wright's various abilities were on display. At 0:20, Wright scores a TD by freezing the defender and diving by him. At 1:22 he takes a wide screen pass, dekes past the corner and goes for the first down.
From what I've seen, Wright was a tremendous space player for the Bears. His speed, agility and vision are a coordinator's dream.
Kendall Wright and the Titans Offense
In the post from Brown above, he mentions former receiver Eric Metcalf as a space player. This was particularly intriguing because Metcalf played in a run-and-shoot offense, a similar offense to the one Chris Palmer runs in Tennessee. I don't know anything about Metcalf, but Brown did have another post with a more recent example: Victor Cruz. That article should look familiar, because it's the same one SuperHorn discussed before the draft. Brown discusses Cruz's success from the slot as a streak receiver for the Giants. I'm left to wonder if Wright can be the Titans' version of Cruz. Wright played both inside and out for Baylor, and had success in both spots from what I've seen. From the tally above, you can see he ran a lot of deep routes and had a tremendous amount of success with them.
If we want to use Wright as an outside receiver, he can fulfill that role. We need someone with speed on the outside, and his vertical routes will fit perfectly with our offense. If we want to use him inside that way as well, great. We can also use him on handoffs, screens and slants- all those space plays he contributed to at Baylor. That's why I'm so excited about this pick. I consider being called a space player lofty praise, but Wright is so talented he has the potential to be even more than that.

Hurricane Ike is playing havoc with Saturday's schedule of games to be played along the Gulf Coast, and one consequence may be to shift the Missouri vs. Nevada game (currently scheduled for pay-per-view) into Fox Sports Net's national TV slot.
"Hurricane Ike could put Missouri's 11:30 a.m. game against Nevada on national cable television on Saturday.
"A Missouri official - director of media relations Chad Moller - has told The Star in a text message that MU, Fox Sports Net and the Big 12 Conference are having discussions over whether the game - set for pay per view only at present - could be switched to Fox Sports Net's national game at the same time.
"Washington State at Baylor is currently in that time slot, but the threat of Hurricane Ike has already caused postponement of the Arkansas at Texas game in Austin on Saturday. The game at Baylor could be postponed as well, although that decision has not been made."

Calls to "Save the Frogs!" rang out among a crowd of supporters surrounding the Environmental Protection Agency in 2011. Save the Frogs! supporters gathered to protest the pesticide atrazine, which causes male frogs to develop female traits, according to a report from the Washington Post. Although the EU banned atrazine in 2004, the fight to end its use in the United States continues with another rally on October 12—the International Day of Pesticide Action.
These efforts for frog conservation epitomize the goal of Save the Frogs!, but the threats to frogs run far and wide. They face extinction from disease, habitat destruction, and international trade—factors that have led to the disappearance of up to 200 amphibian species since 1979. Concerned about this trend, Dr. Kerry Kringer founded Save the Frogs! in 2008. Since then, he has sponsored educational programs and protests like the one in DC to limit frog importation and increase conservation efforts. Every year on April 27, Save the Frogs! also coordinates a worldwide amphibian conservation day—Save the Frogs Day—in 50 countries, including its second base in Ghana. With time, Save the Frogs! aims to keep frogs safe around the world and stabilize their population growth in the wild.

The Santa Cruz community fought to relocate the offshore oil rigs that were being placed along the central coast in the late 1970s. After winning their initial battle, they founded Save Our Shores to act on behalf of Monterey Bay citizens in the event of future threats to the coastline. Today, Save Our Shores continues this work through three primary initiatives. The plastic-pollution, clean-boating, and ocean-awareness programs all contribute to the health and cleanliness of the marine ecosystem. Save Our Shores also advocates for local bans on single-use plastic bags and polystyrene containers, and hosts more than 200 beach cleanups per year with teams of volunteer sanctuary stewards to remove litter that may harm the environment.
Danette Martinez has sung in choirs since she was a small child, gained a degree in early childhood education, and taught preschool and daycare for more than 10 years. She uses that experience in her work as a licensed Kindermusik instructor, bringing the time-tested music program to Santa Cruz. During her music classes, children up to age 7 play instruments, sing, and dance, all while learning how to be curious and interact with other kids.

Pajaro Valley Shelter Services, a nonprofit started in 1983, provides temporary sheltering, transitional housing and case management support services to help homeless families become stable again.
With daily access to fresh, affordable, homegrown vegetables, people can enjoy a healthier lifestyle while also helping their community become more productive and sustainable. Valley Verde works toward this vision for the residents of Santa Clara County. The staff teach individuals from low-income families how to grow and maintain their own organic vegetable gardens through classes and mentoring services, so they can become self-sufficient, lifelong gardeners and share their gardening knowledge with other residents in their communities. To help these low-income families start home gardens at no cost, Valley Verde sells gardening services and kits, using the proceeds to pay for supplies and seedlings. The organization also works to improve the health of Santa Clara County residents through collaborations that help improve existing food system polices and raise awareness of health and environmental issues.

I don't do a lot of promoting of other bloggers here. Maybe I should, but I don't.
Tonight is an exception. Stop reading this, and go read the Bark Bark Woof Woof piece on the Newsweek cover, "The First Gay President," about Obama and his remarks on same-sex marriage.
Newsweek is out (no pun intended) with a cover photo and essay by Andrew Sullivan that dubs President Obama as the "first gay president."
Both Newsweek and Mr. Sullivan are shorthanding the president's support of same-sex marriage by labeling him as gay. Except I'm not comfortable with the label -- not that there's anything wrong with it -- and the idea that supporting same-sex marriage and other civil rights for the LGBTQ community makes him gay. If that's the case, my parents and a lot of my family members are gay, too, which would come as both a surprise to them and their respective children and spouses. It would also apply to a number of people I know who are demonstrably straight. It's catchy, it sells magazines, and I'm sure the editors of Newsweek felt they had to come up with something to counter last week's Time magazine cover article on breastfeeding. (Oh, please, don't even go there.)
If there was just one blog in Florida, I'd hope it would be Bark Bark Woof Woof. If there was just one blogger, I hope it would be Mustang Bobby.
This post is exactly the kind of media criticism I love to read.
The president did a good thing, a bold thing, a politically risky thing -- "bumpersticker journalism," as Bobby aptly describes it, doesn't help the issue. In fact, it sort of dumbs it down.
I sometimes feel a little out of place on certain issues. As a straight, white, quasi-agnostic, middle-age guy, I find it difficult to articulate a practical, articulate position in a lot of cases. President Obama said he supports same-sex marriage. That's great -- so do I. I doubt so many people care about what guy like me thinks about it. Thank god for people like Bobby who have discussed issues around the gay rights movement with a refreshing pragmatism too rarely seen in the blogging world (and he indeed picked the perfect Quote of the Day earlier...).
That is not to say that Bobby is the "gay rights" blogger -- he's certainly not. He has commented on the Republican race for the presidential nomination, and provided some of the best stuff out there. He's got a film preview link, a quick post about the resurgence of whooping cough, and a tune from Booker T and the MGs.
And he posts a hell of a lot more frequently than I do, so there's that. Make him a daily read, if you're not already.

Wellquest Health is a full-service pain management clinic based in Orlando, Florida, providing a wide variety of treatments for patients with musculoskeletal pain, sub-acute pain, and chronic pain. Our treatments include medication-based pain control, massage, chiropractic care and rehabilitation.
I was born in Philadelphia in 1956 and I grew up in Wallingford CT. There, I attended The Choate School in preparation for college. I graduated from Yale University in 1978 with Honors in Molecular Bio-Physics and Biochemistry. In 1982 I earned my MD from the University Of Cincinnati College Of Medicine. At UC, I placed in the top 5% of my class and I achieved a distinguished status by earning the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society award in my junior year, one of only 10 students in a class of 200 to do so. I was selected as the number one choice by the University of Cincinnati Residency in Orthopaedic Surgery, a significant accomplishment in a very competitive subspecialty field. By placing in the top 5% of my Board Certification group, I again showed a superior medical aptitude. In the final phase of my training, I was selected as the very first fellow of what has become one of the premier Hand Surgery Training programs in United States, the Mary S Stern Fellowship in Hand and Micro-Surgery.
I was a practicing Orthopaedic Surgeon for more 25 years. Since 2000, I have been located in the Tampa Bay-Orlando corridor. For the last several years, I have focused on interests in nontraditional medical specialties such as Innovative Wellness, Anti-Aging, Hormone Replacement and Pain Management. Over the years I have been a member of a number of medical associations which include: the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery, the American Society for Surgery of the Hand, the American College of Surgeons and recently I have become a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging and Aesthetic Medicine (where I am a Board Certification and Fellowship candidate), the American Association of Pain Management and the Osceola Medical Society. I have never been sanctioned, disciplined, or discharged from any specialty society or certification board and throughout my entire practice my medical credentials have remained untarnished. In order to achieve the necessary excellence in my current fields of interest, I am currently studying for a Master's Degree in Nutritional and Metabolic Medicine at the University of South Florida.
I am the owner and sole practitioner at WellQuest Health in Kissimmee, Florida, where I devote a large portion of my practice time to serving the needs of patients with hormonal and nutritional imbalances, autoimmune disorders and debilitating chronic pain conditions. I am married to Sheryl, my loving, caring and supportive wife.
We see patients of all ages and all walks of life. Many of our patients are workers who have been injured on the job. Other patients come to us while recovering from various types of accidents. We also see many athletes who have received injuries while doing what they love most, as well as patients who are suffering from specific conditions that cause ongoing pain, such as fibromyalgia.
Treatments available include, but are not limited to:
Based on your situation and symptoms as well as any physical limitations you may have, we are able to assess your pain and cater your treatment to your unique needs.
Unlike many other pain management or rehabilitation clinics, we offer personalized service to each patient and truly care about you as an individual. Our staff will go out of its way to understand your pain and get to know you as a person, so we can better meet your needs and relieve your pain. With decades of experience in the field, we are experienced with treating patients with all types of bone and muscle pain, and we are dedicated to the practice of musculoskeletal medicine and pain control.
In addition to offering friendly, customized service and conducting a thorough examination and evaluation of each patient upon the first visit, we also provide many different payment options to make your treatment affordable, even if you have no insurance.
We are currently offering an In State Patient Special! For only $299, we will conduct a full evaluation and recommend a treatment plan.
At Wellquest Health, we care about you and we want to help you feel better as quickly as possible. A pain-free life is in sight, and we can help you get there! Call (321) 559-1800 to book your appointment today!

Local lawmakers and the federal government are trying to make it easier for the innovators at the newly created Cornell Tech School to patent their products.
The U.S. Commerce Department is setting up shop at the school's Chelsea campus to help connect students to early-stage investors, intellectual property strategies and government grants.
Senator Charles Schumer said Tuesday this office, which is the first of its kind, will help make New York America's fastest growing start-up capital.
"Yes, there is no reason the institution founded with money from laying [pipes for telegraph wires] cannot be the university that is famous for patenting the next [cellphone]," the senator said while clutching a pipe and a cellphone in his hands.
The school's permanent home will cover a 12-acre site on Roosevelt Island in Manhattan. It is slated to officially open in 2017 and be fully built by 2037.

SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine —
"This is quite a significant map," he said. "It's quite a significant advance in the technology and the way it's done."
At Lone Wolf Documentary Group in South Portland, producers are putting the final touches on the History documentary. Rushmore DeNooyer, the co-producer and writer of the show, points out the different items on the map, displayed on a screen.
They include a huge tangle of the remains of a deckhouse; a large chunk of the side of the ship measuring more than 60 feet long and weighing more than 40 tons; pieces of the ship's bottom; and a hatch cover that blew off of the bow section as it crashed to the bottom. Other items include five of the ship's huge boilers, a revolving door and even a lightning rod from a mast.
By examining the debris, investigators can now answer questions like how the ship broke apart, how it went down and whether there was a fatal flaw in the design, he said.
The layout of the wreck site and where the pieces landed provide new clues on exactly what happened. Computer simulations will re-enact the sinking in reverse, bringing the wreckage debris back to the surface and reassembled.
Some of those questions will be answered on the show, said Dirk Hoogstra, a senior vice president at History. He declined to say ahead of the show what new theories are being put forth on the sinking.
"We've got this vision of the entire wreck that no one has ever seen before," he said. "Because we have, we're going to be able to reconstruct exactly how the wreck happened. It's groundbreaking, jaw-dropping stuff."

Making Love
After surgery, while you are recovering and learning to manage your ostomy, you may not experience any sexual feelings for days, weeks, or even months. On the other hand, you may begin to focus on sexual feelings while still in the hospital. You need to let your partner know what to expect from you about intimacy and sex.
Women recovering from ostomy surgery worry about many things: How they will look to themselves and if they will still be attractive to others, will there be pain, how to manage the pouch before, during and after sex. Remind yourself that your lovableness and self-worth do not depend on a body part.
If the rectum has been removed, the whole position and structure/size of your vagina may feel different. Be aware that for some women it is either uncomfortable and/or painful. Your vagina may feel too small or too tight. You may not come to orgasm the first time if things are too strange and different.
An intimate relationship is one in which it matters how well you can communicate about this intimate experience. Your partner will take the cue from you. But do not forget that your partner's feelings are real, too, and they should not be denied any more than your own.
Potential Problems
The longer you lived with the conditions of disease process, the longer you adjusted your sexual activities to the limitation they placed on you. This will now change with some caring and sharing on both your parts. A helpful task for you now is to sort through these limitations to determine if they were from the illness or "ancient history" experiences.
Pain blocks good sexual feelings. Remember that the rectal-genital area consists of soft tissue that is rich in blood vessels and nerves; tissues like this bruise and swell easily when traumatized. They take time to heal. Another source of pain is lack of lubrication.
Most women who have experienced painful post-operative intercourse say that the pain diminishes with time, hormonal creams or lubricants, relaxation, gentle thrusting, and manual stimulation.
Factors Which Influence Sexual Intimacy
- Desire. Sometimes you
may experience little or no desire for sex. Illness and
medical treatments often lower sexual desire as do pain,
medication and just plain not feeling well. A change in
body image and lowered self-esteem interfere with sexy feelings.
Fatigue, depression, anxiety or anger is likely to dampen
- Loss and Grief. Ostomy
surgery means a major change in your body. Even if your
surgery has brought an end to years of illness and discomfort,
or has been to cure a life-threatening disease, it still
represents the loss of a natural body function. Not infrequently,
grief is experienced as anger or fear.
- Body Image. Body image
is the way we see ourselves in the mirror and like to imagine
our appearance. Although the change seems so great to oneself,
most others do not see the ostomy as changing in any major
way the person they love. Harmony within oneself precedes
harmony in a relationship.
- Medications. Drugs
taken during illness and surgery may affect sexual behavior.
Each person reacts individually to medication. Anesthesia
can leave a person feeling off center for quite some time.
- Surgical Procedures. If the rectum has been removed along with the colon, there may be a different sensation in the vagina during intercourse since part of its supporting structure is gone. In some women the angle of the vaginal barrel changes penetration, and orgasm may be harder to achieve. The uterus may change position, leading to difficulties in conception. If radiation therapy has been received, there may be vaginal tenderness and dryness.
Talking About Sex
It is your right to share or not to share information about your body. Sharing information about your ostomy may not be easy. If you find someone with whom you want to share a sexual relationship, then you need to decide when and how much you want to share about your operation.
Many a loving partner of an ostomate has admitted to feeling anger and resentment towards a sick mate. Such feelings are natural. Until they have been expressed and worked out, both of you may feel guilty and unlovable. There is nothing more frustrating and painful than dealing with a partner who refuses to talk about important issues in a relationship such as sex, anger, fear, rejection, or the ostomy. Going together to a professional counselor may be the answer.
Seek Professional Advice
Any sexual difficulty should be addressed by medical professionals, first the ostomy surgeon and/or the WOC(ET) or ostomy nurse. Referrals may be made to gynecologist, therapist or counselors.
Note: More detailed information can be found in the Sexuality Guidebook (Adobe PDF, 276 kB) which can be downloaded from this website.

text: Quiz: Are you too plugged in? Health October 1, 2010 There is a fine line between enjoying technology and getting "hooked." UTMB's Kathryn A. Cunningham, director of the Center for Addiction Research, said a constant need to stay plugged in suggests a loss of control that is a hallmark of addiction. She suggests setting limits on personal tech use — that is, time spent on fun stuff like Facebooking, blog-reading or emailing. "Electronic media takes us away from the in-person social support that's especially crucial to women," she said. "Life was full, careers were successful and everything was accomplished before Twitter and CrackBerries." (Link unavailable.) « Back | The Newsroom »

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) – A sex offender whose registered address was at the Walmart in Wilmington is behind bars after a violation last week in Raleigh.
Brian Lewis lived in his car in the parking lot of the retail giant and called that home for months, but neither shoppers nor store employees had any clue.
Walmart wouldn't comment about the incident but released the following statement:
This is not something we are aware of at any of our stores around the country. We have safety and security measures in place. That includes monitoring the parking lots. Whenever we have a situation with individuals in the parking lots for an extended period of time, we will work with law enforcement officers to maintain a safe environment.
According to Cpl. Jerry Brewer with the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office, the public is responsible for knowing where sex offenders live.
The sheriff's office has a link to the state's sex offender registry on their website, so residents can easily check to see if someone lives in their neighborhood.
[Click here to visit the sex offender registry]
On the website you can register for email or text notifications regarding the state's offender registry. You can also type in your address to see if any offenders live nearby.
"If anyone has an issue with a sex offender being at their business or located near their business, they can call the sheriff's office and we will look into the situation," explained Brewer.
Homeless shelters in New Hanover County do not permit convicted sex offender which could be the reason several who are homeless register businesses as their address.

Nice Bioshock
Nice Bioshock
These videos are so badass.
I love these videos! Very Lost-y
Can not wait.
Very cool.
These videos have been great, I hope they do some more.
Love these! Reminds me of some of the old VHS ghost story tapes I used to buy as a kid.
Huh.. I didn't know VHS was around in the late 70's.
These videos are great, love the audio crackling. Can't wait for Infinite to come out.
I really love this videos
Takes me back to junior high film strips!
This is marketing that I can get behind.
I am the CHOSEN ONEEEEEE!
Yep, these are great.
This ad campaign is the best.
I love these videos so goddamned much.
So this is what they're spending their extra time on.
Sweet, a few more delays and a few more of these, and I wont have to play the game.
Man I love these videos. Can't wait to play. There should be a game shot completely like this as well.
Man, I love this. I wish other marketing companies would learn from this.
God damnit, that's great. I still hate the use of in-game characters for certain shots though. It sticks out so badly.
This stuff is just fun, I don't know why other games can't come out with interesting ways to present themselves and their stories.
Wow. First time I seen something for that game that looked neat. Wish they would just do an hour or two video special like that and put it up on youtube.
Sell me this soundtrack damnit!
If I wasn't already sold on this game, I would be because of these videos.
Finally, the first game of 2013 that I'm actually interested in (though not as much as I thought I would be - I find myself in a mood about this game where I would be completely content if they said it was going to be delayed for another year).
It's also interesting that this will be the first Bioshock game that I'll be playing on the PC. I felt the others were very enjoyable on the console and generally prefer to buy non multi-player games on console so that I can share with other people in the household. I just couldn't ignore the early impressions from people who said that it looks fine on console, but absolutely stunning on PC. So . . . there ya go.
I love the "Unsolved Mysteries" and "In Search Of" tone they are going for.
What I find funny about these trailers is that I suspect more than half of the population watching them don't comprehend the appeal, as they've never sat through a grainy, slightly out of sync, tinny-voiced, stiffly narrated film reel in school like you had to in the 70s and 80s.
Oh god. So old. So. Old.
@shaanyboi: Yeah, that's my problem with these ads as well. Otherwise though, they're a lot of fun to watch. I really want to know who came up with this idea at Irrational Games (or Take-Two, or whoever created this).
Nope, not bored with the late-'70s VHS aesthetic yet. Keep 'em comin'!
Erm. I don't think that's what they're going for, Alex. They're going for 60s, 70s, and 80s school film reels, I'm pretty sure. The crackling and tinny audio sort of give that away, as well as the typical distortion of the video and audio at one point.
At least, that's my take on it.
Honestly these are the most effective advertising I've seen for these games. To me at least. :)
Can't WAIT for this game. It's gonna be great!
Like you didn't know that.
@theking: this makes me want to watch a real old documentary or something.....looks awesome!
Keep giving me more of these videos.
So awesome.
Man, please let this game be good. Please!
Game of the space-time continuum, all space-time continuums.
This is the first bit of Bioshock Infinite advetising I have paid any attention to, god damn did they ever nail the aesthetic. That was pretty cool.
I like how these are in 4:3.
I'm really into the videos, but I think the game might now own up to what I think of the advertisement.
If they made the game in the style of those, though, I'd be down any day of the week.
I wouldn't be surprised if Ken thought up of the idea for the 1970's film reel-style trailers.
I think this video may have sold me on a day one buy.
@exiledvip3r: Don't be silly,they are obviously talking about Andrew Ryan as a child before he built Rapture, duhhh.
Wish I could like the Bioshock series but I got to give them credit these old school trailers are pretty cool.
wow, that video was pretty amazing
Oh, so Elizabeth is the chosen one? That's exactly the type of story hook this game needed.

There has been much debate about certain players on this team. I think its time we settle this once and for all. And I would like to get input from as many people on here as possible.
I would like to create our measuring system on how we judge bengals players. I know it will take time, but I would be willing to take the grunt of the work. Much like ESPN has the Total QBR, well I think its time we create a measuring tool for only bengals players or players we want measure to see if they would be a good fit for our team.
I want to take account for tangible and non-tangle aspects. If you wouldn't mind taking a minute or to let me know what you think is important to measure for a position. I would love to hear it! And once we develop a sound measuring system, I will post it for all to see, so it will be transparent on how players are being measured.
I believe we have fine group of people on this board with great points of view. So as I get my credit card out and ready to purchase NFL rewind. Please take a moment to respond.
If I missed your name, I'm truly sorry, I just noticed some of these names more often on these boards and know they have a lot of good ideas. But again, I want to hear from everyone that has an idea.
And first line of business, we need a cool name for this measurement. Something that is relative to Cincyjungle.
