The Purdue women's basketball team trailed by one at the half and by eight less than two minutes later, but used aggressive defense to make a comeback and defeat Wisconsin 74-62.
With the game seemingly slipping away, the Boilermakers tried changing defenses from man to zone to no avail according to head coach Sharon Versyp. Instead, she noted, the difference was effort.
"[We] played defense, got that going again and we changed the tempo," said Versyp. "[We were] trying to keep it out of 5 [Morgan
Paige] and 35's [Jacki Gulczynski] hands, and we did that effectively."
It worked so well that the Badgers went scoreless from the field for over eight minutes, allowing the Boilermakers to mount their comeback on the other end of the court.
Purdue went on a 25-6 run that turned the eight-point deficit into an eleven-point lead with just of six minutes left.
Once they had the lead, the Boilermakers used their depth to keep the pressure on an undermanned Badger team that only dressed eight players.
Bobbie Kelsey, the Wisconsin head coach admitted her team tired late.
"When you have big bodies on the other side, it's hard when you don't," she explained. "You can fill in and help where you can, but Cassie [Rochel, the 6-4 center for the Badgers who saw limited time due to foul trouble] is a big part of what we do."
Rochel picked up her first foul on the opening tip-off and Purdue looked to be in control early as they opened an 8-0, using defensive quickness to get some early steals.
Wisconsin did not score until the 17:01 mark, but once they did, they seemed to find a way through the Purdue defense. Their dribble penetration keyed a run that got them right back into the game.
Meanwhile, Purdue began to substitute, trying to take advantage of both their depth and Wisconsin legs that might be a bit tired from having played a game the day before.
The tactic appeared to backfire, as the new lineup did not have the same quickness and aggressiveness, thereby allowing the Badgers back into the contest.
Yet the bench did play its part as all nine players that got at least five minutes – the deep bench got in for the final 90 seconds – scored at least a point.
One of those was April Wilson. The freshman hit three of four from beyond the arc to help Purdue make its comeback.
The Boilermakers had two players in double figures – KK Houser with fifteen and Drey Mingo with thirteen – but four players score eight or more including Wilson, Courtney Moses,, Sam Ostarello and Taylor Manuel.
Wisconsin had three players in double figures led by Gulczynski with a game-high 21 and Tessa Cichy and Tiera Stephen with fourteen and ten respectively.
Versyp gave talked about her team playing in their opening contest.
"We know the first game you play in a tournament you need to get through hesitation and play through the game," she said. "Wisconsin obviously played a very good basketball game. We got our game plan back together at halftime and we executed what we needed to do."
With the win, Purdue advances to play Nebraska in today's semifinal.
"I expect an up-tempo game. They want to run as much as they can," Versyp said.

Real Time Traffic Information.
In addition to the data sources that already exist today, the innovative service from BMW ConnectedDrive also uses municipal traffic data and anonymised movement profiles from mobile phones in the cellular network in order to calculate continuously updated traffic data in real time. With this feature in your BMW Z4, you will always be able to react in time to adverse developments on your route.
As soon as the navigation system detects a problem, it informs you via the Control Display about all the important details. For example, where – to an accuracy of 500 m – is the congestion? In addition, the system calculates the probable delay you can expect to your journey as a result of the traffic situation.
However, the high quality of information is not achieved solely through transmission in real time but also by the coverage of the recorded road network. In addition to the motorway network, Real Time Traffic Information includes almost all the important roads in towns and cities as well as cross-country connections.
Only available in conjunction with the optional equipment ConnectedDrive Services.

1987 Vauxhall Nova Merit 1.2 petrol
Suprisingly quick, cheap and fun
Usual suspension and running gear replacements, hoses. Nothing unusual.
Fuel sender unit broke.
Seats got very saggy, and rust around spare wheel well and arches was an issue.
General Comments:
For a 1.2 engine, it's a quick car, and I could surprise many much more powerful vehicles. 0-30 is very quick.
A 5th gear for motorway cruising would have made for quieter motoring.
The engine is foolproof, a great piece of engineering.
Transmission taut, pedals feel great, steering responsive. Modern Vauxhalls are sloppy and slow by comparison.
It's poor points are rust and interior trim levels.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

A question from a reader: I take Synthroid for hypothyroidism. While I am thinking of seeing an rndocrinologist since no doctor seems to be able to get my dosage right, my main concern is my hair. It has been falling out since I've been on Synthroid. I have lost almost all body hair, including my eyebrows.
I am 74 and no doctor (so far) seems to be aware of the fact that even at 74, no one wants to lose all of their hair if it can be helped. Worse, wigs give me a sick headache. Is there a possible association between my excessive hair loss and the drug Synthroid?
I also take Benicar, Zocor, Ziac.
Both an overactive thyroid and an underactive thyroid can cause hair loss. In fact, hair loss is a fairly common symptom of hypothyroidism.
Synthroid and Hair Loss
If your thyroid disease is not being well controlled on Synthroid (levothyroxine), it is possible that you will continue to have problems with hair loss. It is not the Synthroid per se, it's that you may not be getting enough of the medication or you may be getting too much.
You indicate in your note that your dosage is not right and I agree with your thoughts about seeing an endocrinologist.
Sometimes, generic versions of Synthroid vary oh-so-slightly in the amount of thyroid hormone they have -- and even this can make a difference in how well your thyroid condition is controlled.
Other Medications and Hair Loss
I also looked at your other medications. Although it is unlikely that they are the cause of your hair loss, there have been some reports that all three of these medications – Benicar (olmesartan), Zocor (simvastatin), and Ziac (bisoprolol/hydrochlorothiazide) – have caused hair loss in some people.
It is important that your doctor review all of your medications and evaluate you for other conditions that could cause hair loss, such as anemia, diabetes, and other hormonal problems.
If getting your thyroid under control does not help with your hair loss, another option is to see a dermatologist who can do a skin (usually scalp) biopsy to see if you have any underlying skin disease.
I hope this information is helpful and I hope you get this problem resolved.

Bumped. Fun read. - BN Eds.
This post is somewhat of an experiment. As I posted earlier in the week, and was my mildly chided by some frontpagers for doing so, I was at a concert last night. It started at 8 p.m. E.S.T. I left the house at 7:30 E.S.T., the same time as the UCLA kickoff.
Before the game, I decided to record the game and watch after the fact. Thus, I left my smartphone at home so that I could simply enjoy the concert and then (hopefully) enjoy the game. No way to check for updates on the game. No way to check BruinsNation. This probably couldn't happen if I lived in SoCal but it wasn't a problem in Central Florida. I got home and began watching at 1 a.m. E.S.T. (before the time change), finished watching the game by 3:00 a.m. E.S.T. (hooray for fastforwarding through commercials, timetime, and challenge delays), and went to bed. I took about 6 pages of handwritten notes during the game (thoughts I otherwise would have posted on BN).
I just woke up and I had my wife log me on to to Bruins Nation and set up this fanshot page. As such, I have not seen ANY comments about the game from BNers, the media, or otherwise. As a matter of fact, as I type this I don't know who won the LSU Alabama game. The last ticker on the UCLA game said it was 6-6 with about 5 minutes to play. Maybe I should have turned down the sound from the game to even further purify my game experience, but I can't bring myself to do that. I love the sounds of the game.
Circumstances dictated this experiment but I took the opportunity to do it to see if my own personal thoughts stood out markedly from those in this community or if I was simply following along with the general undercurrent of the commnity. I originally thought about simply listing my handwritten comments in chronological order but decided instead to summarize my thoughts in a more general fashion.
Follow me after the jump for my thoughts on UCLA /ASU . . .
1. The Broadcast. As Nestor has pointed out, Versus (soon to be NBCSports Network) has improved the quality of its broadcast. But it still has a long way to go. The broadcoast missed the start of plays on two occasions. Frankly, this would never happen on Monday Night Football or other more seasoned networks. Otherwise, I thought Versus did a solid job. On two occasions, the main play-by-play guy pointed out that "UCLA doesn't run back punts much." LOL. We fair caught every punt in the game.
2. KP. I thought that KP might have played his best game as a Bruin. He made good decisions on several read options, especially in the first half. He would have had even more yards rushing had several of his gains not been negated by penalties. The pump fake to the flat on Rosario's TD made that play. When was the last time you saw a UCLA receiver THAT WIDE OPEN?? There wasn't an ASU defender even in the picture. KP threw some very nice back shoulder balls last night. Also, when he was a dead duck, he tucked the ball, took his medicine, and lived to fight another day (except for, arguably, the incomplete pass that was reviewed where it appeared he might have been trying to tuck the ball)
3. Rosario. He had by far his best game as a Bruin. Forget about the 70 plus yard TD. He caught every catchable ball thrown to him, had YAC for first downs on two ocassions, one of which was the critical conversion on the winning drive. For all grief we give him, we need to give him his props tonight.
4. DC. Love the guy. One of my all time favorite Bruins. Nuff said.
5. The Offense. This game really highlighted for me how much of different type of game must be called if Prince is QB rather than Brehaut. As had been discussed ad nauseum, Prince is better at the "mesh" in the read option. Brehaut is more of a thrower. The playcalling reflects that. BTW, why are we the ONLY team in CFB that cannot run a successful jet sweep?!?!? Everybody else seems to get 8-10 yards. James and Smith get us about 3. OL played another good game. This unit is steady right now. I am glad the Bruins have remained relatively healthy this season.
6. The Defense. Did just enough, barely. With a few exceptions, we get picked apart when we rush 3 and get picked apart when we blitz (an unsuccessful blitz produced the first ASU TD on a wide open crossing route). I recall one nice blitz early in the 4th Q that led to a bad throw by Osweiller. UCLA was gashed in the running game throughout the game. McDonald had a nice game but gambled on a pass break up that led to major YAC after an ASU catch. McKay didn't wrap up on a play in the 3rd that led to YAC. These are young guys so they will be mercurical like that. Glad to see Nate Chandler get a sack. Chandler has moved positions so much and always done what the coaches asked of him, even if it wasn't in his personal best interest. We knocked down a pass at the LOS. When was the last time THAT happened.
7. Penalties & SPTRs. UCLA benefitted from some ASU personal fouls. The one on Burfict was b.s. and was simply because he had the name, "Burfict," on the back of this jersey, but I'll take what I can get. ASU appeared to hold on every passing play. Of course, it was (finally) only called on ASU's two point conversion play. So, they took points off the board and kicked the XP. That one point was the margin of victory in the game. SPTRs totally effed up the "throwing the ball out of bounds" play on ASU's last drive. First, since the call on the field was "no knee down," the evidence to overturn had to be indisputable. It was anything but. Then, they gave Erickson his T.O. back! WTF? Using the T.O. allowed the SPTR in the booth the time to look more closely at the play. It was like the SPTRs were trying to give the game to ASU. Hats off to Erickson for pushing it with the spinless refs, though. The review process on every score and on lots of other plays, and the ridiculously detailed explanations that sound more like the rulings of a Judge from the bench than a penalty call are affecting the enjoyability of watching football (both in college and the pros). I thought both the PR calls on Hester and Fauria were questionable.
8. The Rose Bowl. It was blue. I may be seeing things, but the blimp shots display a much more blue Rose Bowl than I have ever seen. Because of the nature of the color, it will never look like Tennesee at Neyland or Nebraska in Lincoln, but I think UCLA fans are consciouslty doing a better job or wearing true/powder/light/royal blue at games.
9. Another botched 2 minute drill to end the first half. I know, I know, once it was 1st and 20, UCLA needed to pack it in and go in with a halftime lead. But WHY OH WHY are we running the ball on 1st and 10 with approx. 1:30 left. Don't say it is because ASU is expecting the pass. ASU is likely defending against a deep ball. UCLA could kill them with crossing routes or screen passes (Jordan James anyone?!?!) in that situation.
10. Fumbles. UCLA was lucky to win the game. Period. If ASU had a good kicker, they would have won because of UCLA's miscues. But they could not capitalize on either the Josh Smith fumble or the Jetski fumble. Smith's fumble cancelled out the positives from his big KO return earlier in the game. Thank heavens DC recovered his own fumble. I am OK with winning the game because another team cannot make its FGs, especially this season when our issues with kicking have cost us games (see, Houston).
11. Coaching. I thought the offensive playcalling in the first half was very good. Setting aside Prince's pump fake, TD to Rosario, UCLA did not score in the 2nd half until the all important final drive. Fumbles ended some of those opportunities, but I think UCLA got too conservative in the 2nd half on offense. I don't know what the remedy on D is. When we blitz, it seems to get picked up (corner blitz anyone?). When we don't, good QBs pick us apart. Osweiller was not at his best.
12. Overall. Even though we were lucky to win, he hung with a solid opponent and, IMHO, passed the eye test. I believe it was RN's first win against a ranked, winning team (although Texas was ranked when we beat then last season, they ended up under .500; I doubt ASU will be below .500 at season's end). It was certainly his best home win of his coaching stint at UCLA (I still put Tennessee on the road and Texas on the road higher on the overall list, even though those teams were not as good as ASU is this season). That having been said, ASU also lost to fading Illinois on the road, so one cannot get too excited about this win. If this was the first time I saw UCLA this season, I would pinpoint it as an above-average team that was headed for a mid-range to lower tier bowl game (Sun, Vegas). It looks like we will go bowling (barring a nuclear meltdown agaisnt Colorado) but the Bruins need to give effort like this @ Utah and @ U$C*. Still hoping for at least an 8-5 season with a bowl victory (notwithstanding the consequences of that from a coaching perspective).
I was VERY pleased to see UCLA squeak this one out. I am very interested to see how UCLA fares at altitude next week at a place where it was completely dismantled the last time it played there.

Introduction to teleological behaviorism, a branch of the behavioral approach in psychology. Includes an overview, studies and evaluation of this approach.
|Print | Permalink Share this Page:
|In this article:
Teleological Behaviorism is a branch of the psychological perspective of behaviorism. In keeping with the fundamental tenets of its branch, it holds that psychological insights are best gained from the objective observation of outwardly observable human behaviors. While it doesn't reject the validity of cognitive processes such as thought and emotion, it, like the other forms of Behaviorism, does not hold these processes to be explanatory causes of behavior. Rather, they are thought to be forms of behavior in themselves, understandable only by the study of more observable forms of outward behavior.
What makes teleological Behaviorism unique, however, is its emphasis on the questions of free will and self-control. As a form of Behaviorism, it's surprisingly purposive in nature. While its founder, Howard Rachlin, builds off the writings of Tolman and Bandura, the discipline as a whole tends to hedge closer to the Behavioral side of the Behavioral-Cognitive dichotomy.
Teleological Behaviorism is at once an ancient and modern psychological perspective. It has its foundation in the ancient world because it develops out of the writings of Greek philosopher Aristotle, writing in the third century BC. One of Aristotle's main contributions to philosophy was the concept of telos, or the "final cause". This is understood to be the broad goal-oriented explanation for "movement" (a phenomena that would be called "behavior" by the Behaviorist).
Consider that, if you're hungry, you eat. But is the hunger really the cause of the eating? On the one hand, yes, but on the other hand, you also eat because you have long-term goals and plans you want to achieve, and because you want to avoid death and sickness in general.[1]
These teleological, or purposive, explanations of your behavior (eating) are the kinds of explanations teleological Behaviorism concerns itself with. Writing in O'Donohue's "Handbook of Behaviorism", Rachlin shows that a teleological perspective allows one to view measurable behaviors in a more holistic fashion, thereby overcoming the primary flaw in Skinnerian Behaviorism as identified by Tolman, Bandura, and others.[2]
Another aspect of teleological Behaviorism that's interesting from a philosophical point of view is its view of free will. As you know, Skinner's Radical Behaviorism brought about quite a lot of controversy because of the implications it carried for a deterministic metaphysics. In other words, if Behavior can truly be accurately predicted by controlling environmental stimuli, then the question of personal choice is largely moot. Teleological Behaviorism doesn't necessarily refute this implication, but it addresses it obliquely, which brings up a few interesting points.
In Rachlin's text, "Free Will from the Viewpoint of Teleological Behaviorism", he proposes that whether or not an action is free or determined is largely irrelevant from the metaphysical point of view, but highly important from the social point of view.[3] He argues that people use the labels of free and determined to categorize actions into two major components: those that one has control over and those that one does not. This seems to be done largely as a way to determine the propriety of punishment and accountability; one can only be "guilty" if one's actions were "free", yes?
But at the same time, all actions are "responsive to environmental contingencies". In other words, actions that society labels as free are just as motivated by environmental factors as those that society labels as determined. If you decide to steal bread because of the material conditions of hunger, is this choice ultimately "free" simply because the causal environmental conditions (poverty and hunger) are less obvious than the causal environmental conditions that determine something more obvious, such as race or gender? Clearly, some interesting questions have been raised by Rachlin, for both psychologists and philosophers alike.
Earlier, it was stated that Rachlin's brand of Behaviorism has both ancient and modern influences. These modern influences can be seen most readily in the discipline's emphasis on self-control. If Behavior is, to an incredible extent, determined by environmental stimuli, where does self-control come into the picture? Clearly, some people seem better able to resist temptations than other, or to refrain from action we would consider inappropriate. Given identical tempters, what accounts for this difference?
Rachlin's book on the subject, "The Science of Self-Control" attempts to frame the issue as one of value. He asserts that those individuals who have good "self-control" as simply those who have cultivated a perspective wherein they consistently work for long-term gratification.
He likens this to the modern study of microeconomics, wherein one foregoes immediate profit in favor of long term investments. Similarly, the perspective can be used to study problematic behaviors in a psychological context. For instance, why are some people alcoholics and others not? It has to do with their environment instilling a tendency to value either short or long term gratification. The individual who takes a drink when he or she knows it will be detrimental does so precisely because the detriment is "far off" while the pleasure or reward of intoxication is immediate. By contrast, those who are able to curtail their drinking responsibly are motivated by "far off" factors like the potential for alcoholism.[4]
While the focus of teleological Behaviorism is mostly explanatory, certain therapeutic measures are offered, such as the use of "positive addictions" (exercising, making profit, etc.) to negate negative addictions and self-destructive behavior. Clearly, this links right back to the purposive or teleological foundations of the discipline, in that Rachlin seems to believe that by framing behaviors teleologically, destructive behaviors can be subverted.
Detractors, however, are often keen to point that this errs dangerously close to saying that a mental state of teleological "far-sightedness" or "long term thinking" would have a causal effect in producing behavior. Clearly, if true, this would undermine the entire "Behavioral" aspect of teleological Behaviorism.

Tamale Sepp
Spring 2009 Student Fellow
Chicago, IL
Photo by: ASquared Photography
Tamale Sepp is a comic performer, educator, and interdisciplinary artist based in Chicago. She holds a BS in Agricultural Education and Agricultural Technology Management from the University of Arizona, and was the first person to graduate with honors in either major. She earned her MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media at Columbia College Chicago and was awarded the Departmental Merit Award upon entry. Tamale explores performance through her comedy, gender performance, movement based work, and multi-media installations that explore gender, ritual, and social themes.
A graduate of Second City's Conservatory and the I.O. Chicago training center, she writes her own material and uses improv, sketch, and stand-up comedy to inform her work. Curve Magazine named her America's Seventh Funniest Lesbian in America for 2008. In 2004, Tamale premiered her first one-woman show entitled Painted Mirrors to a sold-out crowd.
In addition to comedy, Tamale explores performance through gender expression. She performs burlesque with countless local and international dancers and troupes, including the Sissy Butch Brothers, Chicago's first queer burlesque troupe. In 2007, the Sissy Butch Brothers made history with two sold-out shows at the Vic Theater where Tamale and Margaret Cho shared a stage. History was also made at both The International Drag King Extravaganza and The Great Big International Drag King Show, where Tamale was the first femme to host either event, and bring fire performance to their stages.
Her movement-based work includes fire dancing and tribal belly dance. Her work in this area earned her an invitation to perform with and host the Temple of Poi Civic Center Showcase, a groundbreaking fire show in San Francisco. She was named one of Chicago's Top 30 under 30 twice by the Windy City Times, one of the top five gay people to know in Chicago by the Chicago Reader in 2007, and she is the Official Comedy Gal for the L Stop, Chicago's premiere community for Chicago Lesbians. Her interdisciplinary work in 2009 earned her the Albert P. Weisman Award at Columbia College for her project entitled Bound and Determined, and inclusion in the Manifest Festival as part of the TIC TOC performance showcase.
Her collaborative work includes "The Lola Project", a full length drag and burlesque show based on themes of industrialization and immigration in 1920's Chicago; The Windy City Blenders, an international outreach project building bridges with queer performers overseas; and various smaller projects with producers seeking her artistic partnership. During her Fellowship, she furthered her study in numerous areas of interest, further developed her second one-woman show, and completed her MFA thesis Bound and Determined. A full-length performance was added to the multi-disciplinary project, adding an additional element to the sculptural, installation, and projected media elements of the existing piece.
Sepp has recently performed in various showcases throughout the country including: the Windy City Burlesque Festival, Queer Queens of Qomedy in Chicago, Tamale Presents LOL (with Vickie Shaw and Julie Goldman), Michigan Womyn's Music Festival, FemmeCon2010, and with queer artist "Bitch". Sepp has also appeared at the Dublin Lesbian Arts Festival as the international guest of honor and the International Drag King Extravaganza in Tucson, Arizona. In 2010, Sepp completed her MFA program at Columbia College Chicago. Her graduate thesis has been presented at IDKE (the International Drag King Extravaganza), DLAF (Dublin Lesbian Arts Festival), and was showcased at the Leather Archives and Museum as part of International Mr. Leather. Currently, she is running for International Ms Leather and making a documentary about the experience while continuing to build her comedy career. She is scheduled to graduate from Annoyance Theaters improv comedy training program in June of 2011.

The biggest problem the Big 10 has faced in recent bowl games has been bad matchups. Some teams overachieve during the course of a season and are placed in a more prestigious bowl against a better opponent (MSU). Other schools simply get leapfrogged by a team that the bowl thinks will bring more fans (Michigan over Iowa). The fact that the Big 10 regularly receives 2 BCS invitations also adds to the unbalanced matchups.
For argument's sake lets take a look at how the Big 10 Bowl matchups might've played out with Nebraska in the mix
Big Ten Standings:
Of course we don't know how Nebraska or anybody else would've faired record-wise in the Big 10 but I think we can agree that Nebraska probably would've ended up somewhere around the level of a MSU/WISC but above Iowa.
Big 10 Standings (Nebraska Big 12 Record included)
Ohio State 7-1 12-1
Michigan State 7-1 11-1
Wisconsin 7-1 11-1
(Nebraska 6-2 10-2)
Iowa 4-4 7-5
Illinois 4-4 6-6
Penn State 4-4 7-5
Michigan 3-5 7-5
Northwestern 3-5 7-5
Big 10 Bowls:
1. Rose/BCS vs. Pac-10/BCS
2. BCS vs. At-Large
3. Capital One vs. SEC
4. Outback vs. SEC
5/6. Gator vs. SEC
5/6. Insight vs. Big 12
7. Texas vs. Big 12
8. Ticket City vs. C-USA or Big 12
9. Little Caesers Bowl vs. MAC
2010 Hypothetical Match-Ups:
Rose: Wisconsin vs. TCU
Sugar: OSU vs. Arkansas
Capital One: MSU vs. Alabama
Outback: Nebraska vs. Florida
Gator: PSU vs. Miss. St
Insight: Michigan vs. Mizzou
Texas: Iowa vs. Baylor
Ticket City: Illinois vs. Texas Tech
Little Caesers Bowl: Northwestern vs. Toledo
Arguments can be made for/against PSU actually getting picked over Michigan and if Nebraska would've had a better record than MSU had they actually played etc.
At first glance I like the match-ups but the big question for me is how Nebraska would've done against Florida. I would like to think that they would be more motivated to play a SEC opponent in a New Year's Day bowl than playing a team they had already beaten in a throw-away bowl.
This isn't meant to be a comprehensive look....more of a talking point for discussion. What does everybody think?

The terrorist leader was located in a compound protected by concrete walls and barbed wire.
The secret 'Seal Team 6' led the attack. A SEAL team typically has eight members.modified MH-60 helicopters. One was destroyed by special forces after it appeared to stall over the compound. Planners were reportedly terrified of another Black Hawk Down scenario, when a downed helicopter stranded troops in enemy territory. However, they were able to depart in a reinforcement craft.
By all reports, the SEAL team used small arms, such as M4 or M16 machine guns. The Navy SEALS carry SIG Sauer P226 pistols for close combat.
The team probably used thermal imaging to see through walls and determine where everyone was.
Although it was initially reported that Bin Laden was killed after resisting arrest, military officials have admitted that they planned to kill him. He was shot twice in the left side of his face. 22 people were killed in the raid; presumably everyone in the compound.
Seal Team 6 used facial recognition devices to confirm Bin Laden's identity, along with DNA testing.
Each pilot and soldier may have carried a helmet camera, transmitting live images to the White House, a source tells us.

The unexpected death of a 5-year old girl while in protective custody has launched an internal affairs investigation by the Pinellas County Sheriffs Office. Sheriff Bob Gualtieri admitted Thursday that neither the girl, identified as Elizabeth Holder, nor her 2-year old sister received health screenings within 72 hours of being removed from their home, as required by state law.
"Make no mistake about it, this is our failure, we own it, and I can only hope that that failure did not contribute to her death," Gualtieri said.
Neighbors told FOX 13 News they became concerned after seeing 34-year-old Stephanie Judah leave their Clearwater mobile home park with the younger girl, leaving Elizabeth unattended. They looked after the 5 year old and confronted Judah when she returned.
"We're all mothers, we're all parents, so we were very concerned that this little girl could have gotten taken, she could have got ran over, she could have got really hurt and the mother seemed completely not interested," Maria Galvan said.
Another neighbor called child protective investigators, and Judah was charged with child neglect. Gualtieri said Judah and the girls' father both appeared to be under the influence of prescription medications.
That was on January 11th. Under Florida law, both girls should have received medical examinations within 72 hours, or by January 14th. The sheriff said doctors appointments were made that day, but not completed.
On January 19th, while in protective custody, Elizabeth began to scream.
"About 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Elizabeth was watching TV in the family room of the residence and she grabbed her head, and as she grabbed her head she began to scream, 'it hurts it hurts it hurts, somebody stop somebody stop.' And the next thing that happened is Elizabeth went limp and then she went into cardiac arrest," Gualtieri said.
He stressed her death appears to be a medical event, and there were no signs of foul play.
"There is absolutely no sign of trauma to Elizabeth, there's no sign of physical injury, there's no sign of abuse, there's no sign of mistreatment, there's no sign of anything," Gualtieri said.
Would getting the medical exam have prevented her death?
"[It] should have been done sooner and then of course the question that I don't know the answer to is, would it have made a difference and prevented her death?" Gualtieri said, adding "I don't know and we may never know the answer to that."
The cause of Elizabeth Holder's death may be revealed in a final autopsy report, which is not expected to be complete for several more weeks. In the meantime, an internal affairs investigation will determine how sheriff's personnel and procedures failed to comply with Florida law, what if any disciplinary actions are warranted, and what changes can prevent similar lapses in the future.

Last Update: Wednesday, August 27, 2014
|Layoffs Expected in the City of San Fernando
|Written by Diana Martinez | Editor
|Thursday, 13 September 2012 03:23
The San Fernando City Council is expected to hold a special meeting tonight, Thursday, September 13, and the hot button topic will be laying off positions.
"We have to stop the hemorrhaging," city administrator Al Hernandez told the San Fernando Valley Sun/El Sol. "The council has already agreed [in closed session] to eliminate five positions. They are expected to take a public vote on the matter during the special meeting."
Hernandez acknowledged that it's been difficult to get a quorum of the council and recent attempts to hold special meetings have been unsuccessful.
"If they don't meet Thursday, I have one more shot during the following regular council meeting to get this taken care of. If they don't meet then, then I'll have to use my authority to move this process forward."
Hernandez said eliminating the five positions will "move things in the right direction," but does not solve the city's financial crisis.
"Furlough days, are still on the table. If the employees union doesn't agree to furlough days then there will have to be more layoffs."
Seniors, concerned about the possibility of losing key staff members who oversee their nutrition program and activities at Las Palmas Park have attempted to appeal to the council and are expected to return to the council chambers tonight.
Hernandez would not confirm the names or the positions that are expected to be eliminated.
He said the council members have been given information about the positions but have not been given the names of the employees who hold those positions.
"It's been very stressful and difficult to work under these conditions," said a city employee who asked for anonymity.
"We have no more fat to cut, and at this point, whoever is eliminated, it will be much harder to pick up the slack than those at city hall realize. I feel for anyone who is let go and for the city. We are already so short staffed and the city has never replaced some pretty key positions. If they keep going like this, who will be left to do the work and provide city services?"
Hernandez said if the council meets tonight, and votes as expected, layoff notices would be delivered on Friday.

Automating tasks with SSH, Zenity, Yad, KDialog, PuTTY, WinSCP, and Rex Secure Agent
Starting a script on a Linux server with just a few mouse clicks sounds more complicated than it really is. If you want to create attractive and interactive dialogs for your desktop users, all you need is a small utility called SSH and a little Bash know-how.
Deleting all the tasks in the print spool or saving a complete backup to the SAN immediately after finishing a large project are all typical tasks that keep systems administrators from getting their real work done. How much easier it would be if they could enable their users to complete selected administrative tasks themselves.
To allow even inexperienced users to accomplish these housekeeping chores, admins can simply place an appropriate icon on their desktops. With it, the user starts a self-made program with a simple but sufficient GUI, which in turn triggers actions on the Linux server via SSH – also via script. If admins have SSH, sudo, and one of the dialog systems described below (Zenity, Yad, KDialog, or Rex) in their tool boxes, the client users don't have to grapple with Linux concepts. Windows clients have PuTTY, WinSCP, or PowerShell.

text: Bad news for the Michigan defensive secondary as Sam Webb is reporting that highly touted defensive back Demar Dorsey will not be on campus this fall. There is a lot of speculation as to why, none of it seemingly supported by anything other than hearsay. But if Sam Webb is reporting that Dorsey is going elsewhere this fall there is a greater than 50% chance that's what's going to happen. MVictors has your quotes and break down. Crappy way to start the week for Michigan recruiting.

Despite their 4-3 shootout loss to the St. Louis Blues on Saturday afternoon, the Winnipeg Jets enter the 2+ week Olympic break as one of the hottest teams in the NHL. Since Paul Maurice took over from the fired Claude Noel behind the bench, the Jets went on a 9-3-1 tear that saw the team play with more structure and confidence. This streak has also seen the Jets go from thinking about next season, to go within striking distance of a playoff spot.
Going into the break, the Jets sit back two points back of the Dallas Stars for the final wildcard position, a spot that was unthinkable back on January 12, the day Noel got the axe from Jets management.
By looking at this, the Olympic break comes at a bad time for the Jets. But that's not entirely the case. The Jets were going through some injury issues and the break is a perfect time for the likes of Evander Kane, Jim Slater and Matt Halischuk to heal their wounds and get ready for the stretch drive. Kane in particular is vital to the Jets cause, as he was starting to find chemistry with Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler, before a hand infection sidelined the 22-year-old left winger for the last six games.
The Jets will also have to decide what they will do at the trade deadline. With Mark Stuart, Olli Jokinen, Devin Setoguchi, Chris Thorburn, Adam Pardy and Al Montoya all set to become unrestricted free agents on July 1, general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff faces a difficult decision.
The narrative that has surrounded the Jets since the franchise arrived from Atlanta is build for the future. But with the Jets in a playoff chase, does Chevy sacrifice some of the future to acquire that last missing piece and get over the hump and into the playoffs? Does he stand pat and go with the hot hand he has and let some, if not all the UFAs walk in the summer? Or does he ignore the playoff race and deal the potential UFAs for prospects and draft picks?
While it is a difficult decision, the Jets should look for the future. Granted, the likes of Pardy and Thorburn won't fetch much but Stuart, Jokinen and Setoguchi are the types of players, teams search for as rentals for a playoff push or the last piece to the championship puzzle. What Cheveldayoff needs to do is decide which players aren't part of the future and deal them for assets that can best benefit the team down the road. The Jets are the youngest team in the NHL and with Scheifele and Jacob Trouba slowly becoming the foundation of the franchise, the Jets will need to build around their two young studs.
Finally, the Jets can sit down with Maurice and work out an extension. True North needs to make a commitment to the man who has guided a stunning turnaround for the team. Maurice brings a sense of professionalism to the job that Noel seemed to lack. Maurice has brought out the best in young players like Scheifele and Trouba while the veterans have responded to Maurice's approach and methods. While it has been said that Maurice won't negotiate a contract until the end of the season, Cheveldayoff must convince Maurice to sit down and discuss future plans. Stability is a rallying cry with True North and letting Maurice go at the end of the season would go against the stability motto. The Jets will have a busy offseason to begin with and they don't need a coaching search to add to their to-do list.
- The Jets have four players representing their respective countries at the Olympics in Sochi. Goalie Ondrej Pavelec and winger Michael Frolik with the Czech Republic. Olli Jokinen with Finland and Blake Wheeler with Team USA.
- Paul Postma returned to the Jets lineup on Saturday, after suffering a blood clot in his leg back in October. He, along with Eric O'Dell have been assigned to St. John's during the Olympic break.
- It has been a good season for some of the Jets prospects this season. Nic Petan is second in the WHL in scoring, recording 29 goals and 62 assists in 46 games with Portland. 2013 first round pick Josh Morrissey is putting up career high numbers for Prince Albert this season. His 19 goals and 32 assists from the blue line spot are a good sign for his and the Jets future. 2012 third round pick Scott Kosmachuk is having an outstanding season with Guelph of the OHL. His 38 goals and 38 assists in 53 games leads the team, and has been getting better as the season continues. 2013 fourth round pick Andrew Copp hasn't put up gaudy numbers at the University of Michigan this season, (12 goals and 8 assists in 22 games) but he has been a solid two-way forward for the Maize and Blue this season. Copp will need seasoning, but could be a valuable depth player for the Jets in the coming years.

A sluggish start to Brazilian cane harvest due to poor weather is proving to be a boon for Indian exporters. Besides, the weak rupee has made Indian exports attractive despite volatile global prices. However, shipments have slowed down somewhat due to the onset of monsoon.
"Demand is not coming in easily, but we are doing reasonably well," said Mr Abinash Verma , Director-General, Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA). "The delay in harvest in Brazil is giving us some space in the international market".
The weak rupee is also helping exporters sustain exports. Exporters are still able to make about Rs 1,000 a tonne, he said. White sugar futures for August delivery in London settled at $587.50 on Monday, a gain of $1.70 over the previous close.
ISMA estimates that a total of 21.72 lakh tonnes was exported till June 15 in the current crop year that ends in September. In addition, another 2 lakh tonnes of sugar is waiting to be shipped from various ports. In the corresponding period last year, a total of 22.35 lakh tonnes was exported.
"We are doing about 3-3.5 lakh tonnes a month and expect to close the year with total exports of about 35 lakh tonnes. This includes five lakh tonnes from last year's output," Mr Verma said.
The Government had opened up sugar exports last month and registrations with the Director-General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) have crossed five lakh tonnes. "Shipments have already crossed three lakh tonnes," he said.
ISMA has projected an output of 26 million tonnes for the current crop year. Till end-May, sugar output grew 8 per cent and stood at 25.5 million tonnes as production in many States, including Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra, has come to an end. Domestic consumption for the current year is pegged at 22 million tonnes.

From Steve:
One of the most confusing topics that the group has presented is that of Darkness and Dark Energy. They wrote a lot about it in the first book "Re-member", but have little since then.
Now there is a new relevance and urgency for us to understand other points of view, especially when it comes to Darkness. They say we are at a point in our evolution when we no longer need to be afraid of the dark.
Enjoy the ride.Steve Rother
Greetings from Home
We tell you this day Home is not the same as it once was. We have been watching and helping the little birds trying to find their way back home where they came from. We have been watching with great love and compassion as you pretend that you are human when in fact, you are spirits pretending to be humans.
Putting on the Human-Suit
You are doing a marvelous job, but it is so difficult at times. Everything you see in front of you is within the vibrational range that tells you that this is all there is. It was very important for you to live within a field of duality so you could see contrast. It has given you a view that you could not have experienced any other way. If you could imagine that your greatest intention in playing the game was to put on this human-suit that you love to wear. Living in this contrast will give you the only possibility for you to see and define god. That is what the game is all about. You are here in the search of god.
We tell you, when you look into another person's eyes and you smile, you see god. You start gathering data from that moment forward. From the higher purpose of a soul, it was your intent to do that and it was only possible through a field of duality that gave you the contrast you needed.
Humans have a problem with reality—you think it is real. It is not. What you think of as your reality is the grand illusion. The field of duality itself is an illusion. You live your lives by counting time. The most important job of your left hemisphere of your brain is to mark time. Everything you experience is placed in a time line by that part of your brain. We tell you that time itself is only an illusion. We also tell you that it can only be experienced within a field of duality.
So it was possible, because of this illusion of duality, for you to come down and pretend to have a beginning and an end, when in fact, you are infinite beings with no beginning and no end. You simply have a little bubble of biology which houses your spirit long enough for you to see things in a field of duality. What you do not see is that humans are now struggling with the field of duality. Collectively, humans are at the point where the illusion of duality is becoming more of a hindrance than a help. You are now making a much stronger connection to your own higher self and that is changing the game drastically. Dear ones, in fact you have already won the game.
Releasing "Right and Wrong"
Along with these advances in empowerment also come levels of responsibility that must be accepted in order to activate the power. We will speak of that this day. We will also speak of the fact that you are moving out of a field of duality. You no longer need, as humans, the same motivation that you have needed before. That is going to change everything in your view. The moment you stop seeing in duality you may find that you tend to lose your balance in the beginning. You have been so accustomed to seeing things in that way that this change will strike at the very heart of your comfort as a human. In a field of duality you only see the opposites. You do not see the middle ground. You define everything in your reality as opposites, by the outside ends. We tell you, that as you move forward this must now change.
As Lightworkers you are attracted to the light. That is what you are all about. We tell you, it is not possible for you to move to the next level until you embrace your dark side as well. You have always run from it, thinking that the light holds all of the answers. Light this—light that. We put the Keeper in a room at one point and we gave him a white canvas on which to paint his greatest expression. All of the masters of art were there to guide his brush strokes. The room we placed him in was white and we gave him white paint. He was very frustrated, for, try as he might, it was not possible for him to define anything on that canvas, for there was no contrast…so the contrast itself is the blessing. The challenge has been that you have labeled one as right and one as wrong. So this is where your ideas of right and wrong start going into all other areas of your life. We tell you now that you are about to take a quantum leap in evolution even beyond that which you have been up to this point. For you to take this next step it is critical for you to release the limiting belief systems that you have always had. There is no right and wrong. There never was. It was an illusion of polarity on the Gameboard that gave you the opportunity to play the game in such a manner. Now, you no longer need that same illusion.
The idea of discarding the concepts of right and wrong will frighten many. They will think that without the "RULES" all will be chaos. We tell you now that the rules you have set for yourself will hold you back as you take this next step forward. We did not tell you there is not responsibility. We do remind you that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, yet that is quite different from right or wrong. Labeling something as bad attaches a string between it and you and try as you might you cannot free your self. You have been carrying these attachments with you for a very long time in your history as humans. In the lower vibrations from which you are evolving this served you well; yet as you move into the next level of empowerment these attachments will stop your growth.
Triality and Being Afraid of the Dark
Then there are the things that you have labeled as evil. Dear ones, when you label anything as evil it holds you in the lowest vibration that it is possible for you to have as a human. The entire concept of evil gets humans into serious problems and always has. You are now growing beyond the need to be afraid of the dark. We are going to offer you a different view because you are moving very rapidly out of a field of duality into a field which we call triality. Triality is very simple. You are moving to the next vibrational level where you still have the light, you still have the dark, but you also have a balanced view from the higher self that you have not had before. You have new connections to your own higher self that you are experiencing every day. This is why many of you are awakening to your passion. This is why many of you are starting to awaken from the dream while you are still in the physical bubble of biology. What an exciting thing for us to watch. You are starting to take your power as creators even where you are this day. That is changing everything in your field. You are not the same people you were 2 days ago. You are evolving so fast, it is almost as if we are working with a moving target. It used to be easy to give you ideas to move to the next step. Now we have to expand the range even more to give you possibilities to do that because you are moving so fast.
The beauty that each of you hold is the beauty of Home yet many of you are afraid of it. Many of you do not know how to look in someone's eyes or admire their true beauty. Many of you are afraid of saying to someone, "You are an incredibly beautiful person. Do you know that? I really enjoyed your smile today." What a gift to be able to honestly say that from one human being to another without being afraid of what they think, without care of them thinking that it was wrong or an unwanted sexual advance. Just to simply understand and to be a seeker of beauty for it is within each and every one of you. You all have a unique beauty that you came here to shine, that you came here to use, and now you can use it, especially since you are no longer seeing things in black and white. So there is a light side to the darkness. There is a dark side to light, for one does not exist without the other, and now that you are beginning to have a balance of the higher self to be able to see in all directions, you will no longer be afraid of the dark.
Reflectors of the Light
Many of you get so wrapped up in your own personal dramas of your life. Please understand we do not use the word drama as a negative word. You are all playing a game. You have to have a drama on stage in order to tell your story, so you will go through your personal dramas like everyone else does. Every so often, you get caught in the personal, thinking it is only about you. It is not. When you start seeing things from the higher self, you will start seeing that you are a reflection of everything and everyone you have brought around you. Many times you are not there to shine your own beauty. Many times you are there to reflect the beauty of others. Those are the Reflectors of the Light of which we have spoken—people who have taken this on as a duty, to be there, to be the mirror, to be the reflection of other people's light. You will find many paths that you have chosen to take, but when you are in this drama and you do not like where it is going or you are not satisfied, or you are finding difficulties, it is because you are too invested in your own drama. Step outside of it. Take the side step to light. Step out of yourself long enough to try and focus on someone else that you may be able to give a vision to. Then, as you step back into your own drama, self and personality, you will have a new vision from the outside that you carry with you. So if you will simply take that side step to light when you feel alone, when you feel like nobody understands you. Side step that deep seeded feeling that you have been on this planet trying to carry an energy that nobody really understands, you are not alone. That was part of the veil that was necessary for you to play the game that you have because now you are starting to awaken from the dream. You are starting to look in the mirror and actually see god in your own reflection. Can you imagine thousands of angels jumping up and down when something like that happens? Imagine it, because that is exactly what happens.
144 Primary Colors and the Full Spectrum of Light
We are here not to tell you which way to turn; we are here not to tell you that you are doing good or doing bad or you need to do this for that is a disempowering message in the long run of evolution. We are here to encourage you to be the most beautiful human that you can be and to enjoy every step of the ride, to enjoy being physical, to enjoy being emotional, to enjoy all the parts of the polarity knowing it is a beautiful game and that things do exist outside of this range of light or darkness. We tell you, human sight can only process color in a limited range of vibration. You have 4 primary colors that make up everything you see but we tell you that there are no less than 144 primary colors throughout All That Is. We have shown this before to the Keeper. He was actually taken on a journey where he was seeing many of these colors. His mouth dropped open and he said, "Oh! This is wonderful." Then he realized that he would not ever be able to share it with anyone and it turned into a bit of a frustration but he will get over it.
The truth is that you are about to see beauty in areas where you have not seen it before. We tell you that you are in such an incredible space. We know that you get wrapped up in your daily "stuff". We know that you feel alone and are not fulfilled. We tell you also that most of the time all you need is a little push of the boundaries that you thought was the edge of the light or the edge of darkness. Push those boundaries because there is so much more you are about to discover. There is so much more that we cannot even begin to describe what lies in front of you.
5th Dimensional Living
The ascension process that you seek is not about leaving this Earth to go live on another vibrational level and start another game, it is to bring Home, here, right now. You have already ascended into the 5th dimension. It happened years ago. The challenge is that the 5th dimension is a heightened state of creation. Every thought you have has created your reality. Have you noticed the time lag has gone away? It was getting shorter but now it is gone. Every thought you have starts manifestation immediately. That is because you no longer need the safeguards of the time lag. You are starting to become masters of your thoughts. You are starting to learn how to bring in and magnetize things to you in the Universal Energy because you always attract what you focus on. This is part of the reason we ask you to let go of some of the negatives. If you fear the dark side you will create the illusion of evil in your own lives by your own thoughts.
Humans fear the dark side because it is unknown. We tell you that the dark side can be beautiful for it will truly let you see the entire spectrum of light. The darkness is not something of its own nature; it is simply a lack of light. By being a lack of light, it creates a vacuum for light. If you look at darkness as simply an opportunity for light, you will see things a bit differently, for your whole perception of darkness and evil will shift into higher thought. We tell you, there will come a time when you will go dancing through the darkness and enjoy every moment of it because it is a part of the circle of light. The light could not exist without the darkness. Start embracing some of your own dark side and you will start embracing some of the true beauty of your humanness, of your ability to see light and dark. That will balance you enough to step up into the next level of Triality and the vision seen from the higher self's perspective. You are about to balance the Light of humanity.
There are many of you that have walked in what you call Metaphysics; you have tried to walk the path of the masters to be ascended. We tell you, if you reach it, it will be incredibly boring. Instead, we ask you to be humans. Do not try to do everything you can to be in perfect shape so that you will live to be 165 years old. Instead, we would rather see you turn that body in when you are done with it completely used and bruised with a collection of scars from where you were having fun. That is really what you came to do. When you start to understand this whole idea of light and dark and the balance of it, that is where the beauty is because that lets all the belief systems fall away and allows you to see each other's true unique beauty—that part which you carried from Home to give to the rest of the humans. Each of you is carrying a key to Home which is totally unique. When you get enough of you together, you can create Home. So here you are, living in the 5th dimension. Every thought is becoming a reality the moment you have it. You have new abilities that we have talked about for eons of time yet you still do not believe because your experience has not been that. Your experience is quite simple. You wake up every morning in the 5th dimension. You take a shower, you fix your hair, you get in your car and drive to work expecting a 3rd dimensional reality so therefore you end up creating the 3rd dimensional reality inside the 5th dimension. That is a magnificent creation. We did not think of that when the game first began. We are still not quite sure how you do it, but you have managed so well. What we are suggesting is for you to prepare for the next quantum leap that is already started testing the boundaries you have set for yourself. Push a little bit, to start seeing what is outside of what you call light and dark; to start seeing from the 5th dimensional position of the higher self, to start understanding that you are part of the whole.
Enjoy the Ride
You came here with a purpose. You came here with a vibrational tone which is unique within you and that you carried from Home with the greatest possibility of sharing it with others. Find that tone. Do not worry about how you make a living at it. Do not worry about how your friends are going to accept it. Do not worry about whether or not people are going to call you "woo-woo", which is one of the Keeper's favorite words. Look at a way that you can express it for you will then be the mirror of god. You will then start to see well beyond the limitations of the field of duality and the field of polarity. You will begin seeing things as they really are, to start embracing every aspect of life. If you had one phrase to describe the meaning of life on Earth it would be "Enjoy the Ride". What if we told you that you were here to have fun, laugh and play? What if we told you that you were here to enjoy the ride every step of the way? Well, we are telling you that again now. That is when you become the highest use to the universe that you can be. When you smile, when you laugh, you become the same vibration as the angels. Laughter is the language of the angels. That is how we communicate. That is how we communicate with you and when you notice that all of your belief systems temporarily go away when you laugh and you come down to what is real. That reality is beautiful.
See that in each other. Find ways of sharing that with each other. Find ways of expressing that through your stories, through your music, through your artwork through every piece of your vibration. Dare to push yourselves beyond the limitations of light and dark to see the absolute incredible beauty in the truth of the color of god.
It is with the deepest of honor that we touch you these days. We see you, you see us. You have written letters of thanks for helping to change your lives. You have told us how much we mean to you but what you do not see is that you affect us the same way for it is a mutual gift of light and when you reflect our light, we shimmer with joy as well. It is with the greatest of honor that we leave you with 3 simple reminders. Treat each other with the greatest of respect for you are looking in the eyes of god. Nurture one another at every opportunity. Re-member it is a beautiful game and play well together.

Connecting the Heart
The Eagle who Soared with the Chickens
By Barbara Rother.
I want to tell you a story. There was this baby eagle, just new to this world, so excited to be here and learn what the great adventures ahead of him were all about. The mother eagle was taking him and the rest of the brother and sister eagles out on a grand first flight. This was to be their first outing to spread their wings. You can envision them stepping out of the nest, taking that first jump out of safety—the feeling of anxiety but excitement at the same time. See this eagle right now as he flies with the rest of the young eagles and the mother so proudly encouraging them saying, "Go this way. Spread your wings and fly. See what this world is about and how strong you can be." But this baby eagle, his wings were not as strong as the others. He was toward the back of the group trying so hard to keep up. As he spread his wings, he began to falter. He didn't know why he could not be as strong as all the rest. The other young eagles, along with the mother, were looking ahead and didn't notice that he started to lose his strength and he started swirling down toward the ground. He was so dizzy he did not know where he was going. No one even noticed he wasn't with the group any more.
The baby eagle lands at a chicken farm and says, "Where am I? I feel so strange…" He was knocked out for a minute and truly didn't know what his reality was now. He looked up and saw the mother eagle and the other baby eagles flying off. He felt abandoned, like they didn't care. He decided to pick himself up and found that his wings were damaged and there was no way he could fly now. He looked up to see that he was surrounded by all the little baby chicks on this farm that were new to this world too. As they came up, along with the mother hen and a rooster, they looked at him and said, "Well, you're a bird, but you're very different from us. But we're going to take you under our wings and accept you and give you unconditional love. Feel the love we have for you. We don't care that you look different. We don't care that you have these awkward wings that are broken. We don't know where you came from, but to us, you came down from the heavens, so be a part of our family and we'll nurture you and love you until you're ready to take flight again and find out where you should be."
The eagle felt so loved. He didn't care what was happening or that he was supposed to have another path because he had that unconditional love and a feeling of support. He began to be a chicken even though that was not his true nature. Day by day he grew and began getting stronger and test his wings. He started to take short flights but knew he couldn't go up high enough to where he could find his original family. The day came where his real mother was searching for him. All the other eagles had gone on because they were strong and could make their own way, but the mother finally found this baby eagle that she had missed so dearly. She picked him up and said, "Say goodbye to your adopted family because you are meant to go back now so I can show you who you are truly meant to be." So, with tears in his eyes, the baby eagle said goodbye and said, "I love you all unconditionally, too. Thank you for taking me in and showing me that life can be an adventure even if I did take a side path."
Wherever life takes you, you can find joy even with others you didn't think were part of your family. If you open up your heart and your mind, you can find a home anywhere. The mother eagle helped the baby eagle up. She said, "Fly! Spread your wings!" And he did. He knew his earlier struggles had only made him stronger. As he flew away, he soared down one more time to say goodbye to the ones who gave him so much. He said, "I will return to visit. I feel safe. I feel strong. You will always be in my heart and my mind. I will never forget what you gave me." As he flew off, looking for the next adventures that lay ahead of him, he said, "Thank you for showing me that there are many different ways that you can live your life. Now it's time to spread my wings and fly."Spread your own wings. See how strong you are. Enjoy the flight. And so it is.
Love and Light,

1'Once Upon a Time's Emma and the Mad Hatter Broke Up
Man, something must be in the water over on the Once Upon a Time set, because people are coupling up like crazy. First Snow White and Prince Charming got married in real life, and now I find out that Emma (Jennifer Morrison) and the Mad Hatter (Sebastian Stan) have been dating for nearly a year! But don't get too excited, because they apparently just broke up. Boo!
From US Weekly:
"They broke up at least four months ago," a source tells Us. "They have gone their separate ways — no bad blood."
Another source confirms there's no resentment between the two saying, "They just grew apart."
The couple started dating in summer 2012, and has kept a relatively low profile since.
Well, that's that, I suppose. I guess it's a bit difficult with him not being on set anymore (though there's still a chance! Unless they're going to throw him to the Wonderland spinoff). I really want her to get with the guy who plays Hook. I know it's their characters that have the great tension, but I think they'd look good together.
Yup, still too invested in this show.

8Best, Worst, And WTF Of 2013 Billboard Awards Red Carpet
Ke$ha showed us her butt on the red carpet at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards so it seemed unlikely that anyone could top that awful WTF-ery, and yet, it was managed. Who did it? Click to find out. But first (pun intended), Jennifer Morrison's butt:
BEST: Hayden Panettiere and Emmy Rossum.
WORST: Click to find out.
WTF: Just, so very many.

Maybe it looked better in person — some dresses just don't photograph well — but this little ensemble leaves my head spinning, and not in a good way.

4Kelly Carlson, Just Because I Have a Crush on Her
I remember the first time I saw this chick on Nip/Tuck, I was like, "That has to be the most beautiful woman I've ever seen," and, with that, Kelly Carlson quickly kicked Keira Knightley out of that spot in my book. She doesn't have the exotic, angular look that I usually go for in girls (I love you Jaslene, but please eat), but she's so classically beautiful I think I'd totally have to sleep with her.
Anyway, she was at the Fox TCA party in Santa Monica, along with other assorted members of the casts of Nip/Tuck and House, including Joely Richardson, who I love but who decided to wear her very best toad costume to this event. And does someone want to help me do the count-down to when Lauren Ambrose and Parker Posey find themselves in some manner of on-camera love scene? Because it can't be too long in coming, right?

A MAN who assaulted two children and stole their sweets in a 'terrifying ordeal' has narrowly avoided jail.
Paul Swallow, 25, of Overton Way, Wrexham, grabbed a 13-year-old boy by the neck, bending him backwards over a hedge, before stealing his bag of sweets.
He also pushed a 14-year-old girl to the floor during the attack.
Swallow was found guilty of the offences following a trial at Wrexham Magistrates Court in December.
Yesterday he was sentenced by district judge Andrew Shaw to a 16-week prison sentence, suspended for two years, for one charge of theft and two charges of assault, at a hearing at Wrexham Magistrates Court.
Matthew Ellis, prosecuting, said the incident took place on the evening of July 27, 2013, when the two children had been at a party and decided to walk to a nearby convenience store to buy sweets for themselves and their friends, to the value of £15.
Their faces had ink on them after the children had been playing with felt tip pens earlier in the evening.
As the children were walking back to the party they were approached by Swallow on Chestnut Avenue, Acton, and another unknown man, who both began to shout abuse at the two children about the ink on their faces.
Swallow then pushed the girl to the floor before grabbing the boy by the neck, bent his back over a hedge, and snatched the bag of sweets.
The victims ran to a house where a relative of the girl lived and her mother arrived shortly afterwards.
She drove the children back along Chestnut Avenue and the girl identified the men who were stood at the side of the road. The mum proceeded to pull the car over and confronted Swallow.
Swallow walked back to his house with her and they were met by his older brother, who offered £10 compensation to her for the sweets, which she accepted, before later reporting the incident to the police.
Mr Ellis added that due to Swallow's obvious height advantage over the two children, the incident must have been "very intimidating".
The children sustained no visible injuries apart from minor reddening to the affected areas.
In a victim personal statement, the teenage girl admitted the incident had led to her self-harming on a "daily basis" in the three months after the assault and that she is now "too scared to walk to the shops".
Ceri Evans, defending, confirmed the two children had not be known to Swallow before the incident and they were both "vulnerable" when the attack took place.
She said her client was fully aware of the seriousness of the incident but asked Mr Shaw if he would consider not sending him to prison as he is the sole carer for his terminally ill grandfather.
Sentencing Swallow, Mr Shaw said: "You are a 25-year-old convicted of assaulting two young children, terrifying them and taking their sweets.
"In addition, you pleaded not guilty meaning the nightmare for these two children has been continued and they have had to relive a terrifying ordeal.
"Only a sentence of imprisonment is applicable. However, I am inclined to spare you jail solely as an act of mercy on your grandfather who is terminally ill and is in a critical moment of his life."
Swallow was also ordered to pay £500 court costs and an £80 victim surcharge.

Put Dansea back together!
We are petitioning for the writers of Days of our Lives to put Daniel and Chelsea back together. Daniel and Kate make us sick. Daniel and Chelsea have a perfect chemistry, and the writers are blind if they can't see it. Daniel and Kate came out of nowhere, which is stupid to begin with. Daniel and Chelsea's love grew from day one, which makes it far more real than Daniel and Kate ever will be. Don't give us something great only to take it away. We're here to protest. We want Daniel and Chelsea back together now. Stop making us sick with Daniel and Kate!

Signaling in Auctions among Competitors
AbstractWe consider a model of oligopolistic firms that have private information about their cost structure. Prior to competing in the market a competitive advantage, i.e., a cost reducing technology, is allocated to a subset of the firms by means of a multi-object auction. After the auction either all bids or only the prices to be paid are revealed to all firms. This provides an opportunity for signaling. Whether there exists an equilibrium in which bids perfectly identify the bidders' costs generally depends on the type and fierceness of the market competition, the specific auction format, and the bid announcement policy.

ABR Christmas Show
We went to the August Burns Red Christmas show in Lancaster, P.A. on December 28th, 2009.
Bands we saw before ABR took stage:
- This Or the Apocalypse
- Texas in July!!!
Driving through the middle of nowhere... except for a nuclear power plant.
Getting pumped up for the show in the car.
We stopped at Bird-in-Hand on the outskirts of Lancaster - the best restaurant you will ever see. For 14 bucks, unlimited all-you-can-eat buffet of delicious homemade Amish food. We ate 3 pumpkin pies for dessert.. I ate 2 of them.
This Or the Apocalypse
Adam Grey from Texas in July - one of the greatest drummers ever.
See the ABR drumset behind him?
After waiting what seemed like hours for the sound check.. AUGUST BURNS RED!
After fighting our way to the front: JB and Dustin, lookin' chill as usual.

Congratulations to the Chicago Blackhawks, the 2010 NHL Stanley Cup Champions!
The Blackhawks beat an outstanding Philadelphia Flyers team in Game 6 of the Finals Wednesday night in a dramatic OT win 4-3, winning the series 4 games to 2. This breaks one of the longest championship droughts in any sport, as this is the first Blackhawks' championship since 1961!
After all the disappointment of having the Magic being eliminated by Boston in the ECF, it's a feeling of elation now for me with the Blackhawks winning the Stanley Cup. Just wanted to share the great news, even though I realize that most OPP members aren't Blackhawks' fans.
I can only hope that one day we Orlando Magic Fans will get the chance to experience the Magic winning the NBA Championship.
