An interview with Sharon Van Etten
AE: Did he tell you he was going to be playing one of your songs?
SVE: No, but he did call me randomly to ask me what my favorite song on the album was, and I was like, "I don't know, 'Tornado'?" And he ended up playing and helped put me on NPR's radar.
AE: Well, a lot of people's radar! That was the first I had heard of you as well. You've touched a lot of ears and a lot of hearts with your songs. Your songs are packed with so much emotion, have you ever been afraid of sharing so much of yourself with your audience?
SVE: Well it took me a while because everything I've ever written has been done for self-therapy. I was afraid to share it with people but then I would start playing it for a friend or two and then they said how much it helped them get through hard times. So then I thought, well this isn't just for me. This is helping other people get through things and not feel so alone. So, it was hard, but playing it every time is a release too. It is weird having it be so confessional and having it be so autobiographical. Especially the old record, that's super autobiographical and it definitely takes me to a specific time and place. But to have other people relate to it, it makes it more timeless than I had intended.
AE: I'm assuming that this was the "ex-boyfriend" album? Is he still locked up? (Van Etten's ex was a drug addict who ended up going to prison)
SVE: Actually I just heard on the last tour in September that he's out. I don't know what he's doing right now.
AE: Probably picking up your album!
SVE: Ha! I hope not!
AE: You've mentioned before that Ani DiFranco was a big influence on you.
SVE: Yeah, my friend Alexa in high school was really into Ani and she gave me the first few records she put out. It was the first time I had played around on an acoustic guitar and really tried learning how to pick properly. At the time, my older brother would always tell me that girls couldn't play guitar. Stupid older brother stuff. So whenever he would leave, I would play his guitar and try to learn some songs and put them into weird keys and stuff. But she was the first musician I had ever heard whose songs were super confessional. She could really play guitar, it wasn't just a girl with a guitar, she really meant what she said and it wasn't poppy. That was my first experience with non-pop female musicians. She made me want to start playing more.
AE: Considering how emotional your songs are, do you ever just have to take a step away and have a dance party by yourself? If so, what music do you listen to to get the job done?
SVE: Totally! I listen to a lot of OMD, I'm into '80s music a lot. I have pop songs that I just write for myself but I'm like, "I could totally do this if I wanted to." I'm into a lot of the new post-punk electronic stuff. I like a lot of different kind of stuff.
AE: Your album Epic just came out, is it too early to talk about working on another album or are you constantly coming up with new songs – not just pop related for your own pleasure?
SVE: I'm actually in the studio right now, I'm just taking a break. I'm working on an album that will hopefully come out early next year. I'm always writing because it's the only thing I know how to do! [Laughs]
AE: Well, in a past interview you've said you enjoy learning about new hobbies but aren't really good at any of them — can you give an example? I'm like that with decoupage.
SVE: I like knitting and crocheting but I haven't really gone past hats and scarves. I like taking old clothes and re-altering them just so they fit me or are a little more interesting. Also, my boyfriend left me a ukulele after he went on tour so I've recorded a few songs on there.
AE: Ukuleles are really making a huge comeback these days!
SVE: Yeah it's nice because it's a really simple, portable instrument with less strings so it kind of minimizes things so it's easier to write a melody over.
Hear more from Sharon at myspace.com/sharonvanetten. Epic would make a great gift for a music fan in your life.

I think this official artwork is ridiculously good at summing up the secondary relationships in Utena. For starters we have Kozue, disconnected to anyone else in the picture because she is really on the outside of their dynamics, focusing completely on her brother despite their opposing viewpoints. Miki's eyes are closed, as he does not want to see the true Kozue; he has idealized but ultimately failed to understand her. The hands she has on his head are tender but also possessive and manipulative.
Miki's close to Juri but not intimately so, which is appropriate since they're often together as friends. Like Miki, Juri's eyes are also closed; she too is blinded, this time in regards to Shiori. She cuts an independent figure in the midst of them, but she refuses to sever her connection to Shiori; who, meanwhile, is intent on Touga, but his controlling hand on the back of her neck hints at how he uses her as a tool.
She can be replaced with any of the girls at Ohtori he picks up and discards- and since I'm basically combining my thoughts for both the series and the movie on this I like to see Shiori as a stand-in for Touga's disposable girls in the series.
His other hand is hidden in his pocket, showing that he has his own agenda despite how well he is able to deceive Shiori (read: any girl) with his attention. And Saionji, like Kozue, is disconnected from the others because his goals are always focused on one person. There is longing in his posture but anger in his expression, neatly showcasing how he feels toward Touga.

All three horses live near me. My friend and I try to see them as much as possible because they don't get much attention. I don't think they get affection or anything I also don't think that they are well looked after. The horses are the most cutest I have ever seen. 8 horses live near me and I love them all. The to pics at the top are of a horse that has a love heart shape on her head ( sooo cute ) I haven't yet thought of a name to call her. The pic at the bottom is of a pony that lives in a little field next to the other and again I don't no what to call it. They are so cute and live in horrible conditions and I don't want anything to happen to either. 😊
Lol me and Keira were so bored so did the bid in the car sorry for bad quality

Re: Expansion: The Park
Okay, so, once the URPG opens in BMG, what do we really need to do to open the Park there besides copy/pasting every thread? We do need sub-forums and such.
It does worry me a bit that the whole concept will be new and since they will just be starting out, they might not have enough money to actually go on Park Expeditions.
However, that might actually help the Park. We should post everything about the Park along with the URPG so that people can read, familiarize themselves with it since they won't be able to jump into it until they have enough money. And with them needing to buy new mons too and new moves, it might take some time.
We should also keep links to URPG Park RPs as examples so that they know how different the National Park can be from regular RPs too.
The one thing about the Park I still think needs changing is that we should have one Main RP per location. ... ...hmm....Hey, what if we move the Main RP to BMG and keep the individual RPs here?
The problem with there being one Main RP per location is the clutter of stickies along with the clutter of individual RPs, but, if there are only Main RPs in BMG, then there's no clutter.
People would come to PE2K's Park for individual RPs and to BMG for Main ones. I think that would work.
What do you guys think?

Matilda le Gaucher was one of "the two Matildas" in Sips' Towns Let's Play. Sips could rarely ever tell the difference between the two Matildas, referring to them as "one of the Matildas". The two Matilda's have been rumoured to have had a hand in the siege of Sipsville, therefore in the killing of Juliana, the old sherif, but this is impossible, because the attack came from forces outside of Sipsville.

Study of Time - Kenneth Koch
One bird deserves another. One white and orange tabletop.
One twenty-five-year-old deserves another
Twenty-five-year-old. One harlequin deserves another harlequin. One
rich cocktail of flames deserves another
And one extravagant boast: I am the Obvious. My hunch is me.
One brain deserves a brain that has been hatched in the tropics
One broken heart a heart that has been differently broken.
It seems to me time to get something done. But if I get in the car
I am forty-five years old and you are nineteen. We are
Not going anywhere. The car won't start. And if I get out
I am sixty years old. I look around but don't see you there.
I expect it's a good presumption that you are coming back,
But hurry. If I go into the drugstore
I am thirty-three. The boy behind the counter
Is not a girl, but we discuss national politics anyway.
That fucking Nixon. Or That damned unholy war! If I read a magazine
At the stand, on the other side of the drugstore,
I am twenty-five, and you, dressed with some hoop-la, come in.
I am sixteen when I am lying on the floor, with you beside me
Reading a newspaper. One stone man
Deserves one stone woman, and one glad day of being alone
And in good health. If at seventy
I get up and close the door,
I am fourteen and you are twenty. I'll put on
My blue shirt. My white tie, I'm twenty, twenty-one. Now we are eighty.
One five o'clock sunny day
Deserves another. We are both fifty-four. You pick up the bar that holds
the door
And hit it as hard as you can at twenty. The floor deserves the floor
Of heaven that is a ceiling as we see it. One coldly affected group
Deserves another. We both very much enjoy engaging in sports.
You fall down, I pick you up. I am eight
You are sixty-six. Today is your birthday. You stand opening a cantaloupe.
You say, Let's
Try another! You are sitting in the car,
You are twenty-three, I am forty-four and singing a Spanish song.
If she is nine years old, then I am fifty.
The birthdays come and go talking of Prospero. Good-bye, house!
Do you remember when we used to live in you
And be forty-eight years old? One age deserves another. One time
deserves another time.

Excited to see a young man beat leukemia and be a better man for it. The love that he expressed for all those who have helped him, for his girlfriend who stood by him, for his family…his Mom, Dad, Grandparents was so sincere and heartfelt. It was some of the best radio that I have experienced in the 18 years here at KNCO. Makes me want to be better man in all my relationships. And, thanks to all that showed up at Paulette's last Saturday for the spaghetti feed.

UAE | Community Reports
Crossing at broken signal a major risk for pedestrians
Lack of zebra crossings leaves pedestrians little choice but to cross blindly
- Image Credit:
The attached photo refers to a signal at a pedestrian crossing on Maliha Road, near National Paints in Sharjah.
One of the poles was completely damaged in an accident more than five months ago and removed, and though the other is still standing, it also stopped working at the time of the accident.
Even though the lights are not working I sometimes see women and children crossing the road at this crossing, which is very dangerous.
There is no way to tell if the light is green or red, so anyone attempting to reach the other side could end up crossing while traffic is still moving, resulting in an accident.
I request the authorities to take the necessary action to fix both poles in order to avoid a future mishap.
This is a residential area with few pedestrian crossings. So, any time the few signals stop working they should be repaired on an urgent basis, or the authorities should at least build more zebra crossings so people have an alternative to cross the street from.

Donations may be made online here. Checks, with a notation of "May Tornado Relief" can also be sent to the United Way of Central Oklahoma, P.O. Box 837, Oklahoma City, OK. 73101.
Finally, A Word Of Caution
Beware of scammers who take advantage of unsuspecting people who want to help. They may seek you out on the phone, via email, knock on your door, or even try to get you to give money via Facebook.
The Federal Trade Commission has guidelines about charity donations, including these tips:
- Donate to charities you know and trust. Be alert for charities that seem to have sprung up overnight in connection with current events, like the tornadoes.
- Ask if a caller is a paid fundraiser, who they work for, and what percentage of your donation goes to the charity and to the fundraiser. If you don't get a clear answer — or if you don't like the answer you get — consider donating to a different organization.
- Don't give out personal or financial information — including your credit card or bank account number — unless you know the charity is reputable.
- Never send cash: you can't be sure the organization will receive your donation, and you won't have a record for tax purposes.
- Check out the charity with the Better Business Bureau's (BBB) Wise Giving Alliance, Charity Navigator, Charity Watch, or GuideStar.
- Find out if the charity or fundraiser must be registered in your state by contacting the National Association of State Charity Officials.

Thoughts To Keep In Mind
"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."
"One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple."
"But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."

Help with System Repair
Hello everyone. I own a Samsung QX410 and while I was browsing the Internet it crashed and would not start normally without crashing. So I've tried running Repair my system, even Repair my computer from my windows disk. But every time I do that it comes to a blue splash screen (with the bird, leaf, etc.) and it would not do anything. No options would come up and it would just sit there. Anyone know how to fix this?

Hello Aerolust and welcome to Seven Forums.
Do you happen to have a Restore Point prior to when the issuebegan?
System Restore
If you don't have a restore point or if it doesn't help, I'd try running a system file checker scan from an elevated command prompt (option two.) If problems are found run the scan 3 times rebooting in between each scan.
SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker
If still no joy, one of the Forum experts prepared these two troubleshooting tutorials. They're time consuming but have helped many.

El Lince-Ibérico : The Iberian Lynx
Welcome/Bem vindo to Lince-Ibérico.
I am a wildlife photographer based in Swaziland, southern Africa. I also spend time in South Africa, Portugal and Spain as well as travelling further afield when I can.
This site is dedicated to focussing attention on the plight of the Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) (Portuguese: El lince-ibérico / Spanish: El lince ibérico). Its conservation status is 'Critically Endangered' and it is the world's rarest species of cat. It may already be extinct in Portugal. Down from around 3,000 cats in 1960, the total world population now stands at around 280 individuals that still cling to survival in Andalucia, Spain. Today the Iberian lynx is only known to breed in the Sierra Morena and Coto Doñana. A project is now in place to re-introduce the Iberian Lynx back to Portugal.
The aim of this website is to promote wildlife conservation and to assist efforts to save the Iberian lynx from the very real threat of extinction.
Iberia is also home to another extremely rare animal, the Spanish Imperial eagle (Aquila adalberti). Its conservation status is 'Vulnerable' and it is the rarest eagle in Europe. The Spanish Imperial eagle also has its stronghold in parts of Andalucia where the Iberian lynx can still be found, though the eagleis also found further afield in Spain's Sierras. Today there are between 300 and 400 Spanish Imperial eagles left. Both the Iberian lynx and the Spanish Imperial eagle feed predominantly in rabbits. So the fates of both these threatened species are linked in a number of ways.
I will be happy to set up links to websites that promote conservation of the Iberian lynx or the Spanish Imperial eagle. Or any website that encourages wildlife conservation or Eco-tourism in the Iberian peninsula (Portugal and Spain).
I have visited the Sierra de Andujar in Andalucia, though sadly did not manage to see any lynxes. I have posted a few photographs of the lynx's habitat as well as picture of road signs about lynx conservation in the Parque Natural. See: Sierra de Andujar
STOP PRESS JUNE 2013 : Iberian Lynx photographed in Portugal. Click link here: Iberian Lynx
Iberian LynxNews: A re-introduction programme is now underway in Portugal. A rehabilitation centre has been established at Silves in the Algarve. A small group of Iberian Lynxes from Spain have been brought to a set of secure enclosures. The plan is to eventually release some of the Iberian Lynxes back to the wild in Portugal. Various areas in Portugal are being managed so that good populations of the lynxes' main prey species, rabbits, occur in sufficient numbers that will be able to support the Iberian Lynxes once they are at last re-introduced.

New Iberian Lynx book published: Iberian Lynx Ex-situ Conservation: An Interdisciplinary Approach. Published by Fundación Biodiversidad in collaboration with the International Union for Conservation of Nature, Species Survival Commission (IUCN/SSC) Cat Specialist Group Chief editor: Astrid Vargas (Director, Iberian Lynx Ex situ Conservation Programme; Spanish Ministry of the Environment) / Associated editors: Christine Breitenmoser & Urs Breitenmoser (Co-chairs, IUCN/SSC Cat Specialist Group). This new publication represents the collaborative international work carried out towards the conservation of the Iberian lynx during the past five years, but also portrays similar studies and approaches from other felid species from various areas of the world. The book includes five sections. The first part presents a review of the in situ situation and field conservation activities. The second part deals with genetic aspects and the behaviour and husbandry of Iberian lynx in captivity. The third part compiles papers on veterinary aspects and health issues, which became increasingly important in recent years. The fourth part looks at reproductive physiology of a variety of felid species, placing special emphasis on the latest findings on lynx reproduction. Lastly, the fifth part provides an overview of reintroduction techniques and case studies of felid reintroduction projects. Altogether, 124 contributors from 10 different countries have taken part in the 43 chapters included in the book. Each chapter has been treated as a peer-reviewed paper for a scientific journal, and has been revised by three different experts in the specific subject. Although the book´s main language is English, abstracts and illustration captions from each chapter are presented in both English and Spanish; the prologue, preface and epilogue are also offered in both languages. While presenting scientific research in a wide variety of disciplines, the book also hopes to appeal to the eye of the viewer by including more than 200 photographs contributed by national and international photographers. World renowned photographic artist Joe Zammit-Lucia, has specifically designed the photographs that appear in the front and back covers, as well as the artwork in the opening page of each of the sections. The verses and quotes that appear throughout the book have been largely selected by the authors. The variety of themes, together with the selection of experts and authors from across the world, demonstrates that the Iberian lynx needs international support for its survival, and also reveals how the global conservation society is interested and involved in the recovery of this species, emphasizing how much we all need to work together to prevent the extinction of this magnificent cat.

Practice tweets are useless…unless they give us a chance to panic over the health of one of our star players, as happened this morning when the tweets started rolling out about Percy Harvin's injury. Judd Zulgad reported:
Percy Harvin is favoring his right shoulder after going to the ground following a nice catch in 7 on 7
Harvin made the catch between Abdullah and Colt Anderson and is going to tent to get looked at
Harvin did not return to practice, but was seen doing stretching exercises with the other players, so I guess that's good. In related news, John Sullivan, who is slated to become our starting center barring something unforeseen, also hurt his leg this morning, and returned to practice with his ankle taped. Thank goodness camp is almost over.

Sitting in the panel, "Are girls the new geeks?" with Nancy Gruver from New Moon Girl Media, Allison Keiley from Girls, Inc., Holly Rotman from eCRUSH/eSPIN and Courtney Macavinta, Founder and CEO, Respect Rx.
They start with the knowledge drop: 55% of web content is created by women. Other things overheard, "Girls need to know that their voice is being heard and respected." "Even celebrated."
The focus is on girls as content produces and the use of internet and new media as a moment of empowerment and a place to have your voice heard. I completely and totally agree with this sentiment. Feministing has given me the tools to spread my message, opinions, ideas and thoughts to a huge and diverse audience.
But the questions of creating a safe space inevitably comes up. How do you create a safe space for young women content producers? All the panelists agree that it is very important to create safe spaces. But is this possible?
I asked the panelists this question and they had varying ideas and suggestions and the creator of New Moon emphasized that for youth it is imperative they create safe spaces.
Unfortunately, if I have learned anything about feminist blogging, the idea of a safe space kind of flies out the window. I don't really do this to feel safe, I do it because there is a lack of women's voices in media and a lack of feminist analysis. And while I see the positive things blogging has done for me and other women, it has been a very difficult road due to anti-woman, anti-feminist hate that is thrown all over the internet. We are attacked on a daily basis, which of course shows us why we need to do what we do. But that doesn't mean it is not hard.
So I ask you, how do we create spaces where women's voices will truly feel respected and part of the conversation? Feministing has done this in many ways, but it has taken a lot of work, discussion and monitoring.
Oh and thanks for the Feministing shout out panelists!

PREVIEW: The National
Ah, summer 2k13 is just around the corner, which can only mean one thing: it's Merriweather New Years! And what better embodies a relaxing, liberating summer evening than seeing chill indie rock pioneers the National? If their new songs like 'Sullivan' and 'Prime' are any indication, their self-produced sixth LP 'Trouble Will Find Me' (being released May 21 on 4AD) promises to be another choice record full of tightly wound, rhythmic indie goodness. If you haven't already fallen in love with these Interpol/Shins contemporaries, take note, because this is one of those rare bands that sounds just as tight live as they do on record. Don't miss your chance to start off outdoor concert season right. Get your Bloodbuzz on.

EU Votes for Stronger Shark Finning Ban
17 Dec 12
In August last year, two people walking along a deserted beach in northern New Zealand were shocked to discover 200 finless baby sharks washed ashore. A year later, Australian authorities investigated the discovery of another critically endangered Grey Nurse shark, washed ashore finless. Just last month, this photo of piles of finned baby sharks was taken by Slow Food at Joal Port in Senegal.
In films sharks are usually cast as the bad guy. But in real life, they are victims. In Senegal piles of finned sharks are commonplace. The fin meat is known as 'gold' for the high price it fetches on some Asian markets to satisfy demand for shark fin soup. In Europe sharks may not be washing up on the beaches, but fleets of boats are part of this worldwide phenomenon that is threatening shark populations. A report by the Pew Environment Group in June 2011 estimates some 73 million sharks are caught annually and 30 percent of species are threatened with extinction.
An increasing number of countries worldwide, including those in Central America as well as the United States and Taiwan, are implementing 'fins-attached' policies – meaning sharks must be bought to shore intact. Last month, the European Parliament voted in favor of the same approach, effectively strengthening the ban on shark finning that has been in place since 2003.
The Shark Alliance, which unites more than 130 organizations including Slow Food International and Slow Food Italy, states that EU vessels land more than 100,000 tons of sharks and rays (mostly blue sharks) from around the world annually. Spain is consistently responsible for more than half of these landings and three-quarters of the blue sharks taken.
Under the 2003 ban, EU fishermen with special permits – today issued only to Spanish and Portuguese boats - can remove shark fins at sea as long as bodies are also retained. Compliance is monitored with a complicated and lenient fin-to-carcass weight ration limit that leaves rooms for un-detected finning.
The campaign to strengthen the 2003 EU ban on shark finning, by getting rid of loopholes, was supported by a European Parliament vote in favor of all sharks being landed with fins attached. Led by the Shark Alliance, the campaign's appeal to vote on the matter in the EU Parliament was signed by Carlo Petrini, Slow Food International president, and Silvio Greco, president of the Slow Fish Scientific Committee.

In light of the Virginia Tech tragedy, UVa is now working on a new emergency alert system. The new system would use text messages to send students and school workers information quickly in an emergency.
This comes after Virginia Tech officials said it was difficult for them to get in touch with students during the shootings last month.
The alert system could be up and running by July.

Friday, 23 March 2012 00:00I learned that just last Tuesday, the Port Washington Water District spent over a half a million dollars ($600,000) of taxpayers money to buy a private home on Longview Road so that they can tear the house down (using additional taxpayers money) in order to build a driveway to the water tower.
They do not want their trucks to have to park on the street in order to do whatever they have to do a couple of times a week at the tower. They have access to the water tower now via a street in Sands Point. They did this without public hearings or without notifying neighbors.
I think $600,000 plus is a lot of money for a driveway and I wonder if other taxpayers will feel the same.

Parents concerned about classroom sizes spoke up at the Port Washington Board of Education meeting, as the board passed an approval of the larger sizes.
Parents spoke of class sizes at the district's elementary being in the mid 20s, an amount they felt compromised the quality of their children's education.
"The board of education changed our children's education for the worse," said one mother of larger average class sizes the board had approved last year. The comment drew clapping from the audience.

5. Second subwoofer
A subwoofer is probably the most important speaker in a home theater system (well, maybe the center channel is more important), so why settle for just one? Bass can be a tricky beast. Depending on where you set up your subs, you can have multiple boom and dead spots in the same room because sound waves wash around the room and get into fights with each other. Adding a second sub helps balance the bass and reduces dead zones so every seat in the room gets the same punch in the chest.
Sunfire Atmos and Velodyne MicroVee subwoofers.
Adding a second subwoofer isn't hard. Because the bass channel (the .1) is mono, you can use a Y splitter on the subwoofer output of your receiver. Manufacturers like Velodyne include room correction software to adjust the subwoofer to your room. Sunfire's new Atmos subwoofer includes a throughput so you can add a sub by just tethering two of them together.

The new option will join the current iOS and Android apps.

Blood Of The Zodiac Lyrics - Machine Head
Review The Song (1)
A blind man asked an angel
Could you please help
But was told
Take me from this altar
I won't falter
But I might fall
This bitter man would understand
Through all his life,
a needle had
Been his saviour,
been his God
So he tried to make a change
Tried to rearrange
Gun at his side,
I can't help feel I been mistreated
sponsored linksWon't you listen to me
Despise all that I see
All that I feel
All that I want to be
Burned, blistered and raw
Tearing apart
All that is sane to me
A wise man half pariah
Half messiah
Came to seed
Rain down blood like fire
Born to sire
Racist breed
His dominance of ignorance
Was rhetoric that made no sense
Some believed in all the lies
But in my mind I know what's wrong
Way too fucking strong
Taste the revenge on my tongue
I can't help feel I been mistreated
Won't you listen to me
Despise all that I see
All that I feel
All that I want to be
Burned, blistered and raw
Tearing apart
All that is sane to me
Sometimes I wish I'd died
I thought I was better off dead
Seen three men get stabbed
Had four guns to my head
And I ain't trying to brag
I'm just telling you a story
Just look into these eyes
As they fail to see the glory
And now is my time to rise
And now is our time to rise
Our time To rise
Ignorant, indignant
Promises made in
Rise, I can't feel like you
Rise, I can't see like you
Rise, never be like you
Rise, time for all us to

Leslie Porterfield is one amazingly fast woman. She has the top time on a sit-on motorcycle from the 2009 BUB Speed Trials at Bonneville. 240 miles per hour is crazy fast on a bike.
I met her at Femmoto a couple of years ago. We talked about her leathers, Fieldsheer has a picture of her on their site but they don't sell them. I contacted them to see about the suit but they never got back to me, turns out they were a custom job for her since they are one of her sponsors.

In a medical emergency, a delirious patient can be treated without consent under the common law doctrine of implied consent, but in nonemergency situations legal guidelines are less clear. Implied consent may be extended if measures are taken to safeguard the patient's interests; these include involving family members in the treatment decision, obtaining a second clinical opinion, and seeking administrative consultation. Time permitting, if there are several alternative treatments and the risk of intervention is great, a court should appoint a temporary guardian. Documentation of the course of action is strongly recommended. The authors discuss the appropriateness of diagnostic procedures and the use of antipsychotic drugs to treat combative delirious patients. Legal precedents are offered and clinical examples given.

Topics: Health Reform, Politics
Sep 27, 2009
News outlets reported on President Obama and members of his administration looking to lock in votes for health reform.
The Associated Press: President Barack Obama on Saturday resumed his push to overhaul the health care system, telling a Congressional Black Caucus conference that there comes a time when 'the cup of endurance runs over.'" "'We have been waiting for health reform since the days of Teddy Roosevelt. We've been waiting since the days of Harry Truman,' he said in remarks at the caucus foundation's annual dinner. 'We've been waiting since Johnson and Nixon and Clinton. We cannot wait any longer,' Obama said. ... In the speech, Obama described his plan as one that would not require people with coverage to change anything but would make health insurance affordable for the millions of people who don't have any. Republicans dispute those claims" (Superville, 9/26).
Politico: But while the House members in attendance are mostly supporters of one, Obama made no mention of a public option. ... Obama segued from civil rights into health care, ticking off what his plan calls for and borrowing a line from Martin Luther King, saying that the push called for the fierce urgency of now'" (Henderson, 9/26).CNN: Taking on the voices that say the administration is moving too fast on health care and needs to slow down, he cited examples of people who need urgent health care, and said such people can't be asked to wait. ... health care came up there at the G-20, too, Obama recounted Saturday night. He mentioned a conversation with an unnamed foreign leader at the summit about the furious health care debate. 'He says, 'Barack, explain to me this health care debate. We don't understand it. You're trying to make sure everybody has health care and they're putting a Hitler mustache on you. That doesn't make sense to me, explain that to me,'' Obama said, referring to the antagonistic rhetoric and imagery disseminated about the president by opponents of health care reform" (9/27).
The New York Times begins a story today with an anecdote about White House budget director Peter Orszag dining with Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, to look for her support on a health care overhaul: "The courtship of Ms. Collins offers a glimpse into what White House officials say is an increasingly aggressive campaign to line up votes for a health care bill, which faces a crucial vote in the Senate Finance Committee this week. After months of cutting deals and stroking drug makers, hospitals and doctors, the president's aides are laying the groundwork for a final round of Congressional arm-twisting, with Mr. Obama increasingly in a hands-on role." As the Finance Committee wrestles with the bill, which could form the backbone of an eventual Obama plan, the lobbying effort is already bearing fruit. One Democrat who consults frequently with the White House said that a main goal of the administration has been to prevent any Democrat from publicly declaring opposition to the measure. So far, the only one who has, Senator John D. Rockefeller IV of West Virginia, has scaled back his criticism after a private Oval Office session with the president" (Stolberg, 9/26).

Flintoff set to make cricket comeback with Lancashire for T20 Blast
Former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff is reportedly set to make a comeback to cricket as he is said to be in talks with county cricket club Lancashire for this season's Twenty20 Blast.
Flintoff, who has not played professional cricket since 2009, had a short spell as a professional boxer after retiring from the sport, but the all-rounder has recently been training with Lancashire.
The BBC reports that Flintoff is unlikely to play in Lancashire's first game at Nottinghamshire on Friday because of an ankle injury.
However, talks regarding the former all-rounder taking a formal coaching role within the T20 set-up are reportedly at an advanced stage.
The prospects of Flintoff playing in the opening game of the revamped T20 Blast at Nottinghamshire are reportedly low because he injured an ankle in fielding practice last week, and the all-rounder is also unlikely to be fit for the match against Worcestershire Rapids at Old Trafford a day after that.
However, it would be only a matter of time before Flintoff is back in action again, the report added.

With Tarell Brown still limited by a rib contusion he sustained in Sunday's loss to the New Orleans Saints, the San Francisco 49ers are prepared to go with Tramaine Brock at cornerback on Monday night against the Washington Redskins.
ESPN.com reported that, while it's not out of the question that Brown recovers to play Monday night, Brock is expected to get just his second start of the season.
Brown had to be taken from the field on a cart.
Brock, who will be a free agent after the season, has had a solid year for the 49ers, emerging as the nickel corner when Nnamdi Asomugha was injured in Week 3 and never yielding the job back to the former All-Pro, who was cut Nov. 4.
Brock has a career-high four interceptions this season, posting two with a pick-six in a win over the Houston Texans on Oct. 6. He was an undrafted free agent out of NAIA Bellhaven in 2010. He came into the season with two career interceptions in limited playing time.
If Brock starts, veteran Eric Wright will likely move to the nickel spot. He played his first game for the 49ers on Sunday as the fourth cornerback and then moved outside after Brown was hurt.
