Suppose a certain industry newsletter is indispensable to your business. Many of your employees need ready access to it, but subscriptions cost $400 each. How about buying one subscription and encouraging employees to check for articles they think they might need and then make copies for their files?
That's what Texaco Inc. did with various scientific journals that its huge research and development staff needed--until the publisher of one of the journals found out and took Texaco to court. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled that Texaco's practice was not "fair use" of the journals. After much negotiation, Texaco agreed to settle the case with a seven-figure retroactive licensing fee.
Stephen Gillen, an attorney who specializes in copyright, trademark and publishing issues with Cincinnati law firm Frost & Jacobs LLP, draws a parallel to computer software. "Most executives are well aware that buying one copy of a software program does not entitle their company to make multiple copies for internal use," Gillen says. "Many, though, would be surprised to learn that subscribing to a scientific or business periodical does not entitle the company to photocopy its articles, even for strictly internal use by its staff."
While most small businesses aren't likely to use scientific journals, many depend on industry newsletters. Because they're targeted specifically to a given industry and provide the latest news and analysis, these newsletters charge a price far greater than their size would seem to warrant. A single annual subscription might cost hundreds of dollars because newsletter publishers rely on subscription and licensing fees rather than advertising. "They can't afford to sell one copy and have it copied many times," Gillen says. Accordingly, newsletter publishers are even more aggressive than research and development publishers about going after people making unauthorized photocopies.

The Reverend Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Jr., is the senior servant of the 3,500 -member historic Metropolitan Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. Since his election in June 1977, Dr. Hicks has served as the fifth senior minister in the congregation's 143-year history. During his 30-year pastorate, Metropolitan has developed into one of the world's foremost Christian congregations, distinguished by its fervent worship and dynamic preaching.
Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Jr. has established an undisputed reputation for accomplished and innovative initiatives that further cultivate the partnership between the church and community. Among these exemplary efforts are: the Metropolitan/Delta Adult Literacy Council, a project that provides adult literacy enrichment for community residents; the Metropolitan Day School, with an Afro-centric Christian learning experience, for students at levels pre-K through 8; The Garment's Hem, an expansive new non-profit group dedicated to addressing psychological and emotional health via Christ-centered counseling and therapy; and the Metropolitan Community Development Corporation (MCDC), engaging in community and economic development concerns in Washington, D.C., and the State of Maryland. To facilitate the success of these ministry efforts, Dr. Hicks has partnered with an intriguing mosaic of corporate directors, corporate operations executives, commercial bankers, educators, and social service providers to establish a leadership model for community-based faith organizations.
A Contrary Wind: Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Jr. exhorts the congregation during Communion services in April 2008.
In the Fall of 2000, God blessed Metropolitan to procure 34 acres of land in Largo, Maryland, on which a preeminent worship complex for Christ will be erected in an effort to better serve the spiritual and socio-economic needs of the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia region for the 21st century. Dr. Hicks is providing visionary leadership to build a holistic place of worship and unity that uplifts the heart, strengthens the mind, and empowers the spirit. To this end, Metropolitan's administrative and corporate operations reflect the core values of efficiency, thoughtfulness, and fiscal responsibility that have come to characterize his style of leadership. The church's annual operating budget exceeds $ 5 million and is a national paradigm for church and non-profit efficacy. It also owns comprehensive commercial and residential developments worth over $10 million, and a highly selective private Christian day school.
Cornerstone Service: In September 2008, 500 members of the congregation gathered in Largo, MD to lay the cornerstone.
Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Jr. is President of Kerygma Associates, Inc., a management consulting firm specializing in church leadership development and team-building, and President of the Martin Luther King Fellows, Inc. Dr. Hicks is also a prolific writer and is widely published in religious publications. He has authored several books; the most recent of which are On Jordan's Stormy Banks [2004], Prophetic Business [2002], My Soul's Been Anchored [1998], and Preaching Through A Storm [1987, 12th printing]. In November 1993, Ebony Magazine honored Dr. Hicks with the designation of one of America's "Fifteen Greatest African American Preachers."
Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Jr. is an honors graduate of the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. A recipient of the Rockefeller Protestant Fellowship, Dr. Hicks graduated from Colgate Rochester Divinity School in May 1967. Selected as one of the original Martin Luther King Fellows at the Colgate Rochester Divinity School in 1972, he earned the Doctor of Ministry in Theology degree in 1975. His dissertation, Images of the Black Preacher: The Man Nobody Knows, was subsequently published by Judson Press in 1977. In 1994 Dr. Hicks received the coveted Merrill Fellowship for post-graduate study at Harvard's Divinity School. In 1999, Dr. Hicks earned the Master of Business Administration from the George Washington University.
Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Jr. was licensed and ordained to the Gospel ministry by Mount Olivet Baptist Church of Columbus, Ohio, and served successfully as Senior Minister of Second Baptist Church, Mumford, New York; Mt. Ararat Baptist Church, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; and the Antioch Missionary Baptist Church of Christ in Houston, Texas.
Dr. Hicks, a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, is the son of the late Reverend Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Sr., and the late Mrs. Eleanor Frazier Hicks. He is married to the former Elizabeth Harrison of Selma, Alabama. They are the parents of H. Beecher III, the Reverend Ivan Douglas, and Kristin Elizabeth Hicks. Dr. and Mrs. Hicks are the proud grandparents of twin girls, Austynn and Ashley, and grandsons H. Beecher IV, and Harrison Patton Hicks.

When 20 people were baptized on November 20, 2010, it was a day of celebration for Adventists in Israel. According to Richard Elofer, about 1,000 Sudanese cross the border from Egypt into Israel every day. To meet the spiritual needs of this immigrant group, an Adventist church was planted in Arad one year ago by Global Mission pioneers.
"This special Sabbath was a day of joy for them and for us," says Elofer. "Praise the Lord!"

When a group of motivated women complete the leadership classes under Women's Ministries, they spring right into action. Recently one group of nine women plus one supportive husband traveled to a sister church in China to train leaders in the techniques of friendship evangelism earlier this year. Interactive sessions on physical exercise, massage, vegan cooking classes, and facials were taught.
In the evenings the women presented evangelistic sermons. Each night 30-50 people responded to an altar call. The church leaders followed up on more than 100 Bible studies. Within weeks 70 people gave their hearts to Jesus and were baptized.

Would you want Tebow back if Jets would trade him back fr their 4th and 6th round picks if he agreed

I still think we should have kept Tebow over the paltry pick return we got for him.
Never drafting Osweiler would have let us take Lavonte David or Rueben Randle, both could have immediately helped the "Go for it now" mode Broncos far more than Osweiler.
Also, I think if approached with a realistic road map for his future where he studies behind Manning for 2-3 seasons while being groomed and seeing action on the field as a FB/HB/H-back super utility power back he would have been amenable to it. The Tebow cult likely also shuts up after he scores a few touchdowns from a traditional RB role, racking up some nice yardage along the way.
If in 2-3 years when Manning gets done his passing has matured appropriately he's the guy, if not you sit him back down and explain that he's still not where he needs to be and can either transition over to being a ball carrier full time or the Broncos will release him form his contract/let him walk as a FA.

Purensa is a complete solution to cleanse your colon. A healthy colon is an incredible asset for your health. Purensa can provide you with the added benefits of having a healthy colon by flushing your colon of the collected toxins that all of us gather throughout life. These toxins can cause your colon to perform poorly and make you more prone to colon related disorders, such as colon cancer. Moreover, these toxins can get into you blood and weaken your immune system.
The colon is an important organ that is vital to your digestive system. Many people who have used Purensa have experienced weight loss, because their digestive tract is getting detoxified. It also has been found very beneficial to people who are constantly constipated. Autopsies have shown that 73% of people's colons are clogged with waste. Accumulated waste provides the perfect environment for bacteria and parasites to thrive. Purensa's combination of mild, all natural, ingredients, which gently detoxify your digestive system. Its unique blend of herbs, nutrients and vitamins help get rid of built up waste in your colon. What would your life be like with a healthy and properly functioning colon?
For many people a clean colon would mean more energy. Instead of your body fighting toxins, parasites, bacteria, and/or chemicals it is now allowed to be at ease. Less stress on your body's immune system means less stress on your body. A clean colon would also mean less bloating. One cause of bloating is the gas that is produced by bacteria releasing carbon dioxide when it feeds on the accumulated waste in your colon. Imagine how your clothes would fit if you did not have excess bloating caused by an unhealthy colon?
Purensa also allows for better absorption of water. Many of us do not drink the recommend amount of water each day. Therefore, we are already prone to dehydration. When our colon is not performing on an optimal basis we increase our risk of becoming dehydrated. When we are dehydrated we become listless, tired, more susceptible to head aches, aches and pains, and more serious conditions. Purensa can cleanse your colon and help you better regulate the absorption of water in your body.
Why should you buy Purensa? First, it will make you feel better naturally. There are no chemicals, no dyes, no artificial ingredients, it is an all natural blend of ingredients. Instead of putting more potentially harmful ingredients into your body, why not do it the smart natural way? Second, it will eliminate waste from your colon which will reduce your bloating. If the bacteria and parasites have nothing to feed on, they cannot produce gas, which means less bloating for you. Finally, more energy. Purensa allows your body to work with you and not against you. When your colon is clogged with harmful material, your immune system is compromised. Now your body must expend precious energy to fight off any possible infections and afflictions. With a clean colon your energy is now higher and you feel like yourself.

Experts say that maintaining kidney health is important, and there are ways to spot kidney disease as well as ways to prevent it. NY1's Jill Urban filed the following report.
They're an important control system in our bodies, filtering toxins and regulating blood pressure and hormones. That's why it's important to take good care of our kidneys.
"The kidneys are very important to maintain volume, mineral status and elimination of toxins," said Dr. Jaime Uribarri, a nephrologist at Mount Sinai Hospital. "At the same time, they are important to maintain levels of Vitamin D and of the hormone that controls the level of red cells in the blood."
It's estimated that more than 25 million people in the U.S. have chronic kidney disease. March is National Kidney Month, and NY1 asked Uribarri to explain what can be done to prevent the disease and to maintain good kidney health.
"The main two causes, 60 percent of the cases are due to diabetes and hypertension, so most of the emphasis in terms of prevention of chronic kidney disease should be in dealing with patients with diabetes and hypertension," Uribarri says.
The best way to prevent diabetes and hypertension is to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It's important to exercise, to eat fresh, healthy, unprocessed foods, and to limit salt. Also, don't smoke. And since our kidneys filter all the fluids we ingest, he suggests we drink plenty of water and avoid processed drinks like soda.
Progressive kidney disease is a silent disease. There are often no symptoms, but sometimes, there can be signs of a problem.
"If you suddenly see blood in your urine, if you find that your urine is very foamy or if you have a lot of pain in the area of your kidneys, which is the lower back, if you have swelling of the feet of some other areas of the body, those may be indications that there is a significant problem," Uribarri says.
If you have these symptoms, check with your doctor immediately. Also, if you have a family history of kidney disease, a history of kidney stones, if you are older than the age of 60 or if you're African-American, you are at higher risk, so you should be tested regularly. Early detection is key because there are therapies that can slow the progression of the disease or reverse it.

In wartime Shanghai I saw so many horrors... Civilised life is based on a huge number of illusions in which we all collaborate willingly. The trouble is, we forget after a while that they are illusions and we are deeply shocked when reality is torn down around us.James Graham Ballard
I never forgive, but I always forget.Arthur James Balfour
Great leaders recognize that companies must innovate to remain competitive, and they nurture environments that encourage creative thinking. Innovation is rarely accidental it takes an organizational commitment that starts at the executive level. The idea is not enough. As Thomas Edison said, innovation is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Too often companies forget the perspiration or execution part of the equation.Gregory Balestrero
True couragehas so little to do with Anger, that there lies always the strongest Suspicion against it, where this Passion is highest. The true Courage is the cool and calm. The bravest of Men have the least of a brutal bullying Insolence; and in the very time of Danger are found the most serene, pleasant, and free. Rage, we know, can make a Coward forget himself and fight. But what is done in Fury, or Anger, can never be placd to the account of Courage.Anthony Ashley Cooper, 3rd Earl of Shaftesbury
I sit beside my lonely fire And pray for wisdom yet: For calmness to remember Or courage to forget.Charles Hamilton Aide
Imam Ali was following a funeral and as it was passing along a road, somebody laughed loudly ( a sign of discourtesy and lack of manner ). Hearing this laugh, Imam Ali remarked, " Some of us feel that death is meant for everybody except themselves or it is destined to others and not to themselves or those whom we see dying around us are only travelers going on a journey and will come back to us. It is a sad sight to see that in one moment we commit them to earth and in the next we take hold of the things left by them as if we are going to remain permanently in this world after them. The fact is that we forget sensible advice given to us and become victim of every calamity.Ali bin Abu-Talib
But each day brings its petty dust Our soon-chokd souls to fill, And we forget because we must, And not because we will.Matthew Arnold
America has never forgotten and never will forget the nobler things that brought her into being and that light her path the path that was entered upon only one hundred and fifty years ago ... How young she is! It will be centuries before she will adopt that maturity of custom the clothing of the grave that some people believe she is already fitted for.Bernard Mannes Baruch
When I behold the skylark move in perfect joy towards its love the sun, when I behold the skylark, growing drunk with joy, forget the use of wings, so that it topples from the height of heavens, I envy the bird's fate.Bernart de Ventadorn
Life is short, even for those who live a long time, and we must live for the few who know and appreciate us, who judge and absolve us, and for whom we have the same affection and indulgence. The rest I look upon as a mere crowd, lively or sad, loyal or corrupt, from whom there is nothing to be expected but fleeting emotions, either pleasant or unpleasant, which leave no trace behind them. We ought to hate very rarely, as it is too fatiguing; remain indifferent to a great deal, forgive often and never forget.Sarah Bernhardt
Dear young people: What will you leave to the next generation? Are you building your lives on firm foundations?

Prison stays trend longer
Fewer inmates being released; state system under pressure
HARTFORD — The number of inmates being released from state prisons appears on pace to hit a three-year low as average prison stays are apparently increasing.
A rising prison population has bedeviled the Malloy administration since the inmate count unexpectedly spiked in May and started exceeding administration's monthly projections.

Of course there is no evidence to support the claim! If not for the trooper, there would have been no evidence what-so ever! You don't think that the deputies would have allowed any evidence of their hitting someone to exist do you?
A dash cam video turned over by Arkansas State Police to the Garland County Sheriff's Department has been made available to the public, and the sheriff is reacting to four deputies in a month's time facing disciplinary issues.
Deputies Scott West and Greg Kellar were suspended over the past week, following an investigation into the officers' use of force. Both deputies have been suspended for failing to follow department policy. According to Sheriff Larry Sanders, any officers that cross the line can expect the same.
The video was turned over to the Sheriff's Department by Arkansas State Police on June 13, 2013. It depicts a traffic stop, a week earlier, of two trespassing suspects that turned aggressive for Deputy Clayton Green.
According to Green's account, Jordan and Jerry Hoover were drunk and disorderly. Jordan Hoover, accused of pushing the officer back so that he landed on his knees.
As the State Trooper arrived, Green was walking up to Hoover and hit him several times with a baton. Trooper Crook runs into assist, demanding Hoover get on the ground.
Hoover repeatedly states, "I haven't done anything."
"What we're looking at is it was a force issue — that was brought to our attention," said Sheriff Larry Sanders of the tape.
The issue of use of force is brought up when Sgt. Scott West arrived on scene as back up. Hoover was on the ground, but you can hear him yelling obscenities at police.
At one point, he rolls over, still shouting. West approaches him in the video and slaps him in the face with an open hand.
"The officer said he was about to spit on him and he responded to that and, like I say, it didn't follow department guidelines," said Sheriff Sanders.
West was never mentioned in Green's arrest affidavit, nor was the slap accounted for in his series of events. Green reported that he had used the baton on Hoover, had identified Cpl. Greg Kellar as aiding in putting a suspect in the vehicle, and had identified the state trooper that came to help.
Cpl. Greg Kellar's suspension stemmed from his involvement with Jordan Hoover once he arrived in booking at the Garland County jail.
Kellar had assisted in transporting the suspects, and according to investigators' accounts, Jordan Hoover headbutted the booking officer and was thrown to the ground.
We couldn't see the headbutt in video, and the Sheriff's Department clarified that it happened as the two men entered the room, outside of the camera's full view.
Kellar, according to investigators and the video, pulled out his taser and proceeded to step on top of Hoover's back and apply pressure. Minutes later, Kellar then moved his foot to Hoover's neck.
Sgt. West received two weeks suspension without pay, and Cpl. Kellar received one month suspension without pay.
Their suspensions make four Sheriff's Office employees involved in disciplinary or legal issues in the past month.
According to Sheriff Sanders, he's upset that the department has been cast in a negative light because of it.
"It hurts — they represent me they represent this county. They represent law enforcement. Any time at any agency there's misconduct it affects all officers, and I don't like that.."
Responding to concerns voiced by citizens of an ongoing problem with discipline at the department, Sheriff Sanders said there isn't one.
"In any agency there are things that are going to happen there are going to be complaints filed, I hope the public can see we take it serious," he said. "The message I would like is that people can see action is taken place. Bad behavior is not going to be tolerated and they need to remember the other 140 officers risking their lives."
According to the Sheriff Sanders, the suspended officers will undergo additional training in the department, and other officers may be included in that as well. He also encouraged the public to report instances where they felt like officers stepped over the line.
"If people are not willing to get involved and bring the evidence we need it's hard to take action on that," he said. "If there's evidence an officer should be on suspension then that is taken place."
"I hope that anybody that knows me and my administration — we don't tolerate such behavior. If we have any officers that were stepping over the line and doing something they shouldn't be doing I want people to come forward. We won't take retaliation on it.," Sheriff Sanders said.
(Garland County Sheriff's Department Statement)
Internal Investigation Summary of Complaint
Officers: Sgt Scott West and Cpl Gregg Kellar
Date of Offense: 06-06-2013
Offense: Unprofessional Conduct
On 06-13-2013 the Garland County Sheriff's Office was made aware of a dash cam video
of Trooper Darren Crook, of an incident involving our deputies.
Captain Lacey and I (Lt Roberson) reviewed the video on 06-14-2013. No complaint
was filed by either of the Hoovers but an Internal Affairs Investigation was
Lt Roberson and Sgt Joel Ware were assigned the Investigation.
The incident was in reference to a call of Trespassing at 1897 Mtn Pine Rd, the Hanson
residence. Deputy Clayton Green responded and learned that two white males possibly
intoxicated in a green truck had become verbally threatening towards the complainants.
Suspects left and returned and the older suspect got of vehicle and began beating on
victim's door and yelling. Suspects were gone on deputy Greens arrival.
Trooper Crook responded from his home on east side of county to back Deputy Green.
Deputy Green asked him to check the Thornton Ferry area for the suspect vehicle.
A short time later the suspect vehicle came back by the victim's residence and the
complainants pointed the vehicle out saying that was the actors.
Deputy Green pursued and made a stop at the New Salem Church on Mtn Pine Highway.
The actors became disorderly and Green needed assistance in which Trooper Crook
responded. Deputy Green was able to get the passenger in custody Jerry Hoover but was
having a difficult time with the second subject Jordan Hoover the driver.
When Trooper Crook arrived on scene Deputy Green was being knocked to the ground
by Jordan Hoover. After some struggle Deputy Green and Trooper Crook were able to
handcuff and restrain the actor Jordon Hoover.
Jerry Hoover was yelling and kicking the doors and windows of Deputy Green's unit.
Trooper Crook went and opened the door to tell Jerry Hoover to calm down and stop
kicking the doors and then went back to assist Green.
Sgt West and Cpl Kellar responded to the scene to assist and arrived after Jordon Hoover
was handcuffed and laying on the ground being restrained by Deputy Green. The other
subject Jerry Hoover whom was in back of Greens unit was still yelling and kicking at the
door and window of Deputy Green's unit.
Kellar and West both went to Green's unit together after arriving on scene in attempt to
calm Jerry Hoover down. They decided to pull him from the unit in order to further
restrain him to prevent him from kicking. Jerry Hoover resisted and would not come out
of the unit and after a few tries grabbing for him, Sgt West and Cpl Kellar were able to
remove him.
The conduct in question with Sgt West was when he went back to the subject Jordon
Hoover who was lying handcuffed on his stomach on the ground. Sgt West rolled him
over partway and was seen slapping the suspect. Sgt West when asked why he slapped
said it was because the subject was fixing to spit on him.
Sgt West does not deny the incident and said he never meant the Jordon Hoover any
harm. He stated it was never any intention to brutalize or hurt the subject. He said he did
not think about his actions and was just trying to get him to stop what he was doing.
The conduct in question with Cpl Kellar happened when the subject Jordan Hoover was
laying on the ground handcuffed, his feet were shackled and Cpl Kellar was holding the
foot shackles when the subject nearly pulled him to the ground. Cpl Kellar appears to
punch the subject in the hip or side at that time. Another issue happened after the subjects
had been transported to the booking room at the Garland County Sheriff's Office
Detention Center.
Jerry Hoover was already there and being fairly compliant. Green arrived with Jordon
Hoover whom upon entering the booking room became disorderly and head butted
Deputy Lane the booking deputy, who struggled with him. Lane and Cpl Dorris took him
the floor mat in order to better control him. Deputy Lane got a black eye from the subject
head butting him.
At this point Cpl Kellar assisted by pulling his Taser and telling the subject to comply or
he could be tased. Cpl Kellar then holsters the Taser and places a foot in the back of the
subject. Cpl Kellar shifted his weight and moved his foot to the neck of the subject and
continued holding subject down.
Cpl Kellar said he did pull his Taser in attempt to gain compliance and that he did place
his foot on the subject just to let him know he was there. Cpl Kellar said he did not kick
him or try to hurt or antagonize him in the process.
During the review of the incident at the scene of the arrest, Jerry Hoover after being taken
out of unit to be further restrained told Trooper Crook that someone hit him five times in
the face in back of unit. After all interviews and reviewing all the evidence on hand, there
is nothing to support the accusation made by Jerry Hoover.
There were no injuries to either subject as a result of deputies' actions.
Lt Roberson
Hot Springs Daily decided to provide the full length video of the alleged "use of force" by Officer West and Officer Kellar. The video lasts approximately 30 minutes.
(Disclaimer) This video may contain profanity or scenes not suitable for everyone.

Of course there is no evidence to support the claim! If not for the trooper, there would have been no evidence what-so ever! You don't think that the deputies would have allowed any evidence of their hitting someone to exist do you?
My mom slapped me for spitting on my cousin. Never happened again.
Bad behavior is bad behavior. I highly respect these officers, they tolerated much more abuse than anyone should have to. I have no respect for drunks. I may not have all the facts, but the video speaks volumes.
As you said, the video speaks volumes. He should not have resisted arrest, but why did the officers keep messing with him instead of just putting him in the car??? Maybe they wanted to release some frustration and he just happened to be on the receiving end? Come on, it only takes 1 cop, 2 at most, to handcuff someone and put them in a car! I have no respect or tolerence for a drunk either, but right is right and wrong is wrong. The way I see it, they were all in the wrong, but you expect stupid behavior from a drunk. Officers are trained to handle drunk, abusive people without being abusive themselves. I expect much better from an officer than what I just watched!
I have worked with both of the Hoovers. They both have very bad tempers and some psychological issues. One was even fired from that company for theft. It was obvious from the reports that both of them, especially Jordan, were violent and non compliant. Of course there is going to have to be some force involved to maintain control of the situation.
Its funny how u wanna say all this but cant even say who you are…coward. and furthermore get your facts straight my son was not fired for theft . Its people like you who don't know their ass from a hole in the ground that gets things started that was never true to begin with. I don't condoned my son for driving drunk. But that is not the issue here and not even the reason for the stop.
larry sanders and crew cover up real well when need be . state police just saying u need be watching all of them.
I have witnessed cases of excessive use of force, police brutality, and unarguable evidence. This particular case with the supporting video shows that even when under intense situations these officers demonstrated professionalism and attempted courtesy. However when the party is unwilling to follow commands and procedures, force is necessary in order to control the situation for both the officers involved and party. I see no problems here.
Two words: witch hunt. Yes force was used. Excessive? Depends. The dash cam doesn't tell the whole back story. They didn't severely beat the subjects. They weren't brutalized. From what I can tell from the video the subjects were drunk and were looking for trouble. They started it, the officers had to finish it. The objective of every officer is to go home after your shift in the same condition than when they started, and that sometimes requires force that some may view as excessive. Residents, you ask men and women to go to bat for you. You get tired of being robbed and burglarized, tired of drunken idiots on the street looking for trouble, tired of feeling insecure in your neighborhood, tired of the people down the street selling meth and other drugs, tired of vicious dogs roaming about freely. In fact, you demand your personal security from someone else and then question the manner in which it is provided. Provided by a man or woman who makes roughly $25-$30K a year to do it. I support our Sheriff and his Deputies. They do an unpopular job for little pay and even less thanks. I support the Sheriff upholding the Use Of Force Policy that the Department has in place. I supported the termination of the investigator who exposed himself, and am of the opinion that the Marine Patrol Deputy should have been fired before his resignation letter was tendered. I also understand that there are forces at work behind the scenes that we residents don't see, much less would understand if we were to see them. My final point is this: let's make sure we are justly punishing those in the wrong (Former Inv. Williams and former Deputy Parliament), and not making examples or pawns out of other Deputies to save face the past wrongdoing of others.
As an officer in a Texas Law Enforcement Agency I would highly consider this to be abuse and excessive force on the officers behalf. It is our duty to protect and serve but most of all to UPHOLD the law.
This video clearly shows these officers in a challanging situation but there are procedures that law enforcement should follow to properly get the job done. Good job on the State Troopers behalf for turning this video over to be reviewed. If these officers worked in my department, they would be standing in the unemployment line Monday morning.
Go back to Texas. I've heard of what Texas officers do. Go talk about them !
When an opinion from Texas is needed we'll contact you officer Randall but we don't really care about what you would do in Texas. We already have one turd from Texas running a department and not very many of the officers are happy about it. How many officers in Texas get killed because they have to handle idiots like this with kiddie gloves on….officer Randall must be an office cop
Officer Randle is probably not an officer at all, but a libtard working for ACLU. If it would have been my local department, they would have tased his ass a long time ago and took out 14 minutes of this video.
i think they did what had to be done. hell they should have stopped it quicker than they did..
Dumbazz drunks ! I can reconize them I use to be one. All he wanted was his daddy ! As most often once caught they become babies ! What about if they had hit and killed some one ? Even if I think I'm not in the wrong or if the officer is rude I treat with respect and have never had a problem with a law officer !
I personally know both of the men arrested and I can tell you the father was drunk and I have been around his son enough that i can tell you he was scared for his dad. I agree the way the two guys acted was wrong, but slapping and kicking a man that is handcuffed is wrong. That is the problem with most of the cops in this area they are just glorified bullies. Not all but most of them.
thats right and they slap and kick u but lord forbid u bitch slap a cop because ur getting be ur the one going to prison garland county sucks larry sanders and hired in family find new jobs.
That's why he let him drive drunk ?
I commend Hot Springs Daily for showing the entire video – but truly did not see any reason for the officers to be suspended without pay.
Stay on top of it old guy.. u gotten
You would think cops would have some physical fitness standards. What good are cops if all you have to do is out run them for twenty seconds?
Officer Green is a liar and a coward, repeat, A LIAR. and a yellow bellied pisspot COWARD, a disgrace to all his ancestors that came before him and a blight upon his families name, who would attack a handcuffed man with a baton for no reason.
Green was outsized by longshot an suspect shoved him to the ground unhandcuffed an Green came up deploying baton at that time. I give him credit for not backing down an going back after him. Suspect 6'4″ 230lbs. Green maybe 5'7″ if lucky. Watch your mouth an comments
Guess you didn't watch video ?
I have watched these videos twice and still don't see excessive force. But I tell you this that Punk that is cussing, spitting, bad mouthing, and shoving the officer of the law to the ground, needs a ass whipping that his sorry a** daddy never gave him…
I think the officers done a great job of keeping their cool… The officers talked and talked to the thug to try to co operate with them… Then he wants to spit on them? Officer West must be a very laid back man… Anyone else would have doubled up their fist and knocked the punk out….
I hate it for the officers and their families for the suspensions…. They don't make near the money that they are worth for serving and protecting us….
One good thing about this video it shows us just a short clip of the crap these officers put up with to serve and protect us….
I highly dout we seen the whole video. cuz they don't want there family too look bad
Ok I have procrastinated on leaving my input on this for long enough….I call the officers actions "pure justice" if you wanna be a punk your gonna get treated like a punk…..I know west outside of his job and hate to see all this critisisim against him…..like someone stated in a comment earlier " its the officers duty to go home in the same condition he went on duty in no matter if he needed to be defensive " these two men were up to no good obviously and needed a little sense knocked into them anyways.
To clarify, Green deployed his baton BEFORE the cuffs were on. Totally acceptable and necessary. Slaps in the face and a foot to the head AFTER the cuffs were on was not necessary. Granted, the drunk thug pieces of crap totally deserved every bit of it and probably more.
Thanks to them crossing the line now the deputies who truly have to use force will be questioned more. They let their ego get the best of them (probably not the first time condisering how comfy Keller looked using that dudes face as a foot stool) They knew they were violating procedure and did it anyways. Good job to the trooper who came forward and good job to the deputies who do what they can to come home at night but still don't cross that line.
So glad the AR State Police use video cams. I'm not sure the entire video was produced on this site, but I clearly heard the difference in professionalism of the state officer vs. the GCSD officer (Green). The video shown on television shows the incidences in the booking room. I did a google search and was shocked at how many GCSD deputies have been in trouble and the media has covered it. If multiple deputies have been caught on tape misusing their badge, just think about the ones that we never hear about. There are a lot of hidden issues within this department clearly. I wonder if the Chief at the HSPD has a twin brother that could take over the leadership of the GCSD, so they will receive proper training and put them all on a physical fitness plan. There was another incident where a AR state police officer had a vehicle pulled over. A GCSD deputy pulled up in an unmarked vehicle and the video cam showed that deputy taking drugs (I believe hydrocodone) out of the back of the vehicle that was pulled over. That particular deputy was allowed to resign the department. Hopefully with all the questionability of the GCSD actions recently there will be an internal investigation. Us taxpayers are funding for the new jail and it needs professional law enforcement officers that truly protect and service our community. There is a handbook given to GC employees and those rules are in place for a reason. Many of them have been broken and knowingly by those in command. When rules are broken their is a chain of people adversely affected. It sets a standard that its ok to break the rules in the handbook when those in command just turn the other cheek, simply because they wear a badge. Every action causes a reaction. Now is the time for anyone and everyone that knows something to go forward with it. If you don't feel safe with the GCSD, go to the FBI and tell them your story. I'm not scrutinizing the two men recently put on leave (although they both have the short man syndrome), they may be good men and thought they were doing the right thing. Video's and tape recorders don't lie. If an officer wants to protect himself in these situations then they should turn on the video cam and UPHOLD the law accordingly.
Trooper Crook is a POS excuse for a state trooper that no body not even his own daughter likes. Officer Kellar is probably the best officer that garland county has ever had. I would question what Crooks true intentions were for releasing this video! Did he leak this video for political reasons or because he is a good guy?
well look bobby the state police needs to reveal yahs dirty asses once and for all.
Cpl Kellar and all of his brothers are the biggest butt holes in the county. Law enforcement position is exactly the type of job this guy does not need. He is an arrogant butt hole on and off the job. Flashed his badge at me the other day trying to intimidate me. Good thing Sheriff Sanders is not running for another term because I darn sure would not vote for him.
What we're seeing here are law enforcement officials going about their duties, and being scrutinized for excessive use of force. Oh not to mention of course the dashcam video showing another side to a story. But the thing is, cops will be damned if they took action, and damned if they don't. A witch hunt ensures of course following controversial media footage to hold those accountable for their actions. Who are the winners and losers in this situation?
My ex husband is living with the youngest suspects mother ( mary hoover) i know what kind of people the hoovers are. This is exactly why i was scared every time my son went to visit his sorry ass father, and this is why it will never happen again. Pot and alcohol revolve around these people….. no wonder he spit and cussed, his mother has no morals so why should he.
Maybe officer green should be investegated

Milly Fuggles and Georgia Peedle have been called up to the England U20 squad that will compete in the Nations Cup later this month.
Fuggles, who plays for Old Albanian Saints, and Peedle, who plays for Worcester, replace Danniker Willmore and Rose Jay who are now no longer available for selection.
The tournament, which also includes the USA, Canada and South Africa will take place between the July 14- 23 at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
The England Women's U20 side has enjoyed a successful season with wins over Wales (32-19), Scotland (77-0) and France (12-5) but are expecting a tournament with three very physical encounters.
Amanda Bennett, England Women's Under 20 Head Coach, said: "We want to be up front and say that we want to go to the Nations Cup and win it but we have no doubt how hard that is going to be.
"We are not taking any of these games lightly, it will be fierce. We know that we will be facing extremely fit and physical opposition. There are no performance guarantees when it comes to this tournament.
"The USA and Canada have a history of producing incredible athletes and South Africa has dedicated time and resources in recent years to developing the women's game."

About Mirabelle:
Mirabelle is a luxury private-label brand developed by North America's largest and most-respected plumbing distributor and showroom network: Ferguson.

And because they do not have the high marketing overhead shared by the name brands, the pricing of Mirabelle products is surprisingly attractive.

I'm trying to use RTM, but it really seems more complicated than what I need. I want a simple task list that syncs with Thunderbird/Lightning. I don't need a bunch of categories. I don't want to use GTD methods, I just want a task list that syncs. I want all of my tasks in one list, not an inbox with other lists to move them into as I "process" the stuff I collect. Just a damn task list. There will never be more than 20-25 tasks on the list and I want to see them all by default every time I open the application.

You could just leave everything in your Inbox - there's no obligation to move them. The Inbox syncs just like every other list.

For some reason (silly I am certain) I don't want a single box called Inbox, but I can't change the name (or can I). I still have another list called All Tasks, can that go away, I only have one list.

Posted by Miche on Sunday, November 25, 2007 at 1:21pm.
And also, how do you say the negative of nous nous levons?
Like "nous nous ne levons pas"??
Bonjour, Miche!
l'impératif de se lever
lève-toi / ne te lève pas
levez-vous / ne vous levez pas
levons-nous / ne nous levons pas
You'll love the negative! nous ne nous levons pas. (Remember to keep the Reflexive Pronoun as close to the verb as you can.)
NOTES on Reflexive Verbs:
1. The reflexive pronouns (me, te, se, nous, vous) like other pronoun objects, normally pecede the verb.
2. In the affirmative imperative, they follow the verb and are connected to it with a hyphen. After the verb, "toi" is used instead of te (and "soi" instead of se)
3. (Me, te, se) become (m', t', s') before a verb beginning with a vowel or silent "h:" = je m'amuse / elle s'habille
4. The reflexive pronoun is not always a direct object. It may be an indirect object, while some other word in the sentence is the direct object.
EXAMPLES: Je me brosse les dents. = I brush my teeth. "les dents" is the direct object"
Il se lavait la figure. = He was washing his face. "la figure" is the direct object
5. A verb that is reflexive in French need not be reflexive in English.
Nous nous dépêchons. = We hurry (ourselves)
Ils se lèvent. = They get (themselves) up.
Let's look at the transitive verb (lever = which must take a direct object) and the Reflexive verb (se lever, where the reflexive pronoun is the dirct object.)
EXAMPLES: lève le livre = lift the book
lève-toi = get (yourself) up
lave la voiture = wash the car
lave-moi la voiture = wash the car for me ("moi" being indirect object here)
lave-toi = wash (yourself) up

She lovesss my right side and is so high up. I feel like she is right under my boobs. My new nightly adventure is feeling like I have a lump or something stuck in between my lungs. Kind of like that lump you get before you vomit.
I agree with the pp who said it hurts sometimes. It is amazing how strong and big they are getting
It's crazy to hear that everyone is experiencing the exact same thing! My little squirt is also kicking my right ribs, but it doesn't hurt so much as it makes me jump, like the way tapping your knee makes your leg kick. DH chuckles a little bit every time he sees me sort of spasm like that, and then he scolds the little guy to "be nice to Mommy." Weirdly, squirt DOES seem to calm down when DH talks.
And then there's the classic treat-Mommy's-bladder-like-a-punching-bag. Joy.
Country Girl in the City:I did trapeze school a few years ago. I think LO is using my ribs to practice for her first flight.
LOL....I have taken to calling Baby Boy my little monkey because I swear he has his little hands wrapped around the right side of my rib cage swinging from them.

I joke around that LO is having a party for one in there -- especially on NYE while I was trying to sleep.
According to my mom, I was a very active fetus -- the dr hadn't encountered a baby that moved as much as I did -- but a normally active child.

Humidity 84%
Winds 10.4mph
Humidity 84%
Winds 10.4mph
May 16, 2013 4:20 PM by Associated Press
GRANBURY, Texas (AP) - Ten tornadoes touched down in several small communities in North Texas overnight, leaving at least six people dead, dozens injured and hundreds homeless. Emergency responders were still searching for missing people Thursday afternoon.
The National Weather Service gave a preliminary estimate of Wednesday night's violent system, saying a tornado in Granbury had wind speeds between 166 mph and 200 mph. Other tornadoes damaged nearby Cleburne and Millsap.
Granbury, about 40 miles southwest of Fort Worth, bore the brunt of the damage, as the exceptionally powerful tornado tore through two neighborhoods around 8 p.m. Wednesday.
Resident Elizabeth Tovar said fist-sized hail heralded the tornado's arrival and prompted her and her family to hide in their bathroom.
"We were all, like, hugging in the bathtub and that's when it started happening. I heard glass shattering and I knew my house was going," Tovar said, shaking her head. "We looked up and ... the whole ceiling was gone."
The weather service's preliminary storm estimate was an EF-4, based on the Fujita tornado damage scale. An EF-5 is the most severe.
Those who saw the destruction in the city's Rancho Brazos subdivision, which has a significant number of Habitat for Humanity homes, described it as unrecognizable.
Hood County Commissioner Steve Berry said Thursday he couldn't tell one street from another - some homes were ripped from foundations, others reduced to rubble. Half of one home was torn away while the other half was still standing, glasses and vases intact on shelves. Trees and debris were scattered across yards, and fences were flattened.
Ruby Derrick, a volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, said the organization has built nearly 70 homes in Hood County, with the majority of those in Rancho Brazos.
Authorities said about 110 homes were either destroyed or damaged in the subdivision; about 40 of the damaged homes were built by Habitat. They said other areas in the county had not yet been assessed.
Hood County Sheriff Roger Deeds described the overnight hunt for bodies in Granbury.
"Some were found in houses. Some were found around houses," Deeds said. "There was a report that two of these people that they found were not even near their homes. So we're going to have to search the area out there."
Seven people remain unaccounted and authorities hope they are with family or friends, Deeds said at a Thursday morning news conference. Emergency responders were working to identify the six adult bodies that had been found, he said.
He said 37 injured people were treated at hospitals.
Harold Brooks, a meteorologist at the weather service's severe storm lab in Norman, Okla., said May 15 is the latest into the month that the U.S. has had to wait for its first significant tornadoes of the year.
Brooks said he would expect 2013 to be one of the least lethal tornado years since the agency started keeping records in 1954.
Utilities said about 20,000 homes and businesses in the region were without power early Thursday.
Another tornado cut a mile-wide path through Cleburne on Wednesday, storm spotters told the National Weather Service. The weather service said Wednesday that it was estimated as an EF-3, which has winds between 136 mph and 165 mph.
Cleburne Mayor Scott Cain said Thursday morning that no one was killed or seriously hurt in the courthouse city of about 30,000 that's some 25 miles southeast of Granbury. Nine people suffered minor injuries, and upward of 150 homes were damaged and another 50 were destroyed.
He described the storm as "bizarre" because severe winds kept shifting in different directions.
Cleburne resident Derrek Grisham was going through his mother's damaged home Thursday, salvaging items before the home is likely torn down.
Grisham, 26, said after the storm passed through, he ran to his mother's nearby home to check on her and his 10-year-old son, who was staying with her.
"I had to kick in the front door to get them out," he said, explaining the two had taken shelter in a bathtub.
The roof of the home was torn away and he said her belongings were a jumbled mass, but that Catholic crucifixes stayed in place on the living room wall.
Another tornado hit the small town of Millsap, about 40 miles west of Fort Worth. Parker County Judge Mark Kelley said roof damage was reported to several houses and a barn was destroyed, but no injuries were reported.
Stengle reported from Cleburne and Granbury, Texas. Associated Press writers Diana Heidgerd and Terry Wallace in Dallas; AP videographer John Mone in Granbury, Texas; and freelance photographer Mike Fuentes contributed to this report.

LOS ANGELES -- The Carmelo Anthony saga reached a tipping point Saturday, arriving at the moment of truth he was always going to have to confront for all parties to walk away feeling they got the best deal. Anthony met with a Nets contingent led by owner Mikhail Prokhorov and part-owner Jay-Z in a last-ditch effort for New Jersey to finally complete a trade for the three-time All-Star.

A second person with knowledge of the meeting told CBSSports.com that Anthony's agreement to meet with the Nets was a condition of the Nuggets' decision to grant permission to Madison Square Garden chairman James Dolan to meet with him. The arrangement was a "quid pro quo," said the source, noting strong indications that Dolan wouldn't have been given permission to meet with Anthony unless Anthony also agreed to meet with the Nets.
The New York Daily News first reported that the Nets' meeting was scheduled for Saturday. The meeting occurred only hours after Prokhorov's spokesperson, Ellen Pinchuk, issued her second statement in as many days saying that Prokhorov had no intentions of meeting with Anthony this weekend.
The Nuggets continue to prefer the package of assets offered by New Jersey, including Derrick Favors and multiple first-round picks, to the enhanced offer presented by the Knicks this weekend. The Knicks' willingness to part with three starting players -- Wilson Chandler, Danilo Gallinari and Raymond Felton -- plus Eddy Curry's expiring contract and a first-round pick from another team, marked a significant departure from the patient strategy employed by team president Donnie Walsh. And sources told CBSSports.com Saturday that the involvement of Dolan, leaning on the advice of former team president Isiah Thomas, could call into question Walsh's willingness to remain with the team beyond this season.
As Walsh was waiting for the Nets' negotiations with Denver to reach their inevitable conclusion -- either with Anthony telling Prokhorov he would not sign with the Nets or with Prokhorov quashing a potential meeting for the second time in a month -- Dolan jumped ahead of the process and met with Anthony on Thursday night in Los Angeles. Sources say the meeting put Anthony's mind at ease that the Knicks were committed to trading for him in a scenario that would get him his preferred destination and the extension he has refused to sign with the Nuggets. But it also compromised Walsh's carefully constructed negotiating position and undercut the executive whose savvy rebuilding efforts were responsible for the Knicks having a chance to get Anthony in the first place.
"Dolan has taken Donnie's job away," said a person connected to the talks. "It's amateur hour."
The Knicks have a team option on the final year of Walsh's contract, which must be exercised by April 30.
A person who has been in contact with the teams involved said the Knicks privately believe their offer centered around Chandler, Gallinari and Felton should not be viewed as inferior to the Nets' package. It is possible, the person said, that the Nuggets' basketball staff also has come under undue influence from elements within their organization. Sources say some members of the Nuggets' still complicated hierarchy are more focused on making Anthony twist all the way to the deadline and not get what he wants than they are on the Knicks' offer. Thus, they may be overlooking the fact that Felton is a better player than Devin Harris on a better contract, Chandler is more polished than Favors, and only the Nets' own pick among the first-rounders being offered will have much value. The Knicks' offer also saves Denver approximately $20 million this year.

But by sweetening the Knicks' offer before the Nets' hopes were dashed by Anthony, who privately has maintained his preference for New York over New Jersey for months, Dolan presented an opening for Denver to continue exploiting the Nets for leverage. He also gave renewed hope to the Nuggets that they can revive their own strategy of hoping Anthony panics and accepts the extension from New Jersey rather than risk a substantial paycut via free agency.
Walsh and coach Mike D'Antoni are opposed to giving up multiple starters for Anthony, knowing they can get him as a free agent. That option, or negotiating a more reasonable trade without having to compete with New Jersey's better offer, would have given Walsh more flexibility to build around Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire.
"If they give up Wilson Chandler and Gallo, they're basically giving up the farm," one person connected to the talks said. "Melo, Amar'e and throw-ins -- you're not going to win in the East that way."
Walsh's patient strategy applied not only to keeping and adding necessary role players to complement the two superstars, but also to adding a third star who could push the Knicks into the Eastern Conference elite with an aging Boston team, Miami, and Chicago. A person with knowledge of the conversations told CBSSports.com on Saturday that Jazz point guard Deron Williams began informing close associates after last season that if Stoudemire wound up in New York, Williams would follow him there as a free agent in 2012. If the Knicks got Anthony with the three-year extension under current rules, it is not clear whether they'd have enough cap space to add a player such as Williams, Chris Paul or Dwight Howard when the trio become unrestricted free agents after next season.
Even if the Knicks didn't get Anthony at all, sources say there are those within the organization who believe the team would be better off filling more obvious needs -- a defensive-minded center and backup point guard -- while preserving cap space for a run at one of those free agents, or even center Tyson Chandler, who will be unrestricted this summer.
While Denver executives Masai Ujiri and Josh Kroenke have signaled a desire to achieve a resolution to the painstaking Anthony saga by the end of All-Star weekend, one high-level agent connected to the talks said Saturday that he still believes Anthony will remain in Denver through Thursday's deadline. It is not clear when, or if, the Nuggets will employ what some regard as a nuclear option to force Anthony to New Jersey. Such a strategy would involve informing Anthony that they're not trading him to the Knicks, and they're also taking their own $65 million extension offer off the table -- leaving Anthony only one path to the extension that he has stated from the beginning is his first priority in determining his future.

Laptops I own are cursed
November 16, 2009 (07:44 PM)
I woke up today and my laptop wouldn't boot up. When I press the button I hear the fan but windows never comes up. Last night it was working fine. I'm posting this from a library computer on campus. I hope it can be fixed at least temporarily because if not I will have lost about twenty reviews in progress.
November 16, 2009 (10:01 PM)
That would suck if you lost all those. I want to read something new from you.
Mine does that every now and then, too. I'm not sure what causes it, but maybe every ten times I try to turn it on, it has a power glitch. The light will come on, the fan will start but it will keep going, which is usually the sign it's not going to boot up, because it's actually incredibly quiet.
When it does that, I have to hold the button down to shut if off, then push it again, it will light up and then turn off completely. I follow that same process five or six times, until finally the light stays on and the fan goes off, and I'm able to log in.
It's iritating.
November 17, 2009 (03:22 PM)
None of them were really fully formed reviews. But what happens is that an idea or a sentence or a few sentences will just come to me, usually when I'm in the shower or something, and I'll open a word document and write them down before I forget them. It'll often happen on separate, multiple occasions for the same game, and for some games I had about 500 words of ideas and phrases down, particularly for SSBM, SSBB, and Godhand. Usually even when I finish my review those ideas and phrases end up being the best parts because they were born out of raw, effortless insight. If I can recover them I plan to put them on Google Documents or some shit since laptops hate me.
November 20, 2009 (01:37 AM)
You may actually want to try an online storage site. Fileden is pretty straight-forward and free, but you do have to log in and go through their "would you like to try this weight loss program" offer every 30 days, but it's better than some others out there.

How many times have you not followed through on something? Now look back, did you give a reason for each of those times? Did that reason seem justifying enough for you to feel satisfied? Unless you were physically not able to do that task, now ask yourself - is that reason truly justified?
When we give reasons to our minds not to do something, we are only limiting its unlimited potential to do things beyond imagination. The reasons we give are excuses, perhaps because we might have been lazy at that time, or that we were afraid of the consequences. I believe that the main reason why we don't follow through on many things is fear. Fear of the unknown (or the known) consequences. We start wondering what will happen if it does or does not work out the way we want it to. Then, we start to worry about what the reaction of the others would be. When we start to think and worry about all these, we start to lose our confidence to actually do it correctly. Then, half way through, we give up.
We have got to start thinking and looking at things / situations for just the way they are, and stop categorizing them as being either good or bad. After all, we established the rules for "good" and "bad" in our society to have a sense of control over people. As I said in one of my previous notes, we want to distinguish good and bad situations because we want to control the way life works for us. For us. That's selfishness. Of course, in that aspect, we are all selfish, because we want our life to be favorable for us.
In spite of wanting (in a way needing) life to be favorable for us, we give up on things half way through. Whatever the reason, giving up is still not justified. Not following through on something makes matters worse - in our own minds. Why do you think we worry all the time? We have pockets of these emotions in our mind that keep telling us that we have not followed through on something despite being able to.
Almost every reason we give to justify our incomplete tasks is an excuse. It might be an excuse for any reason, it is still an excuse. It is just us trying to escape from the situation.
Marianne Williamson said - "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us"
That is absolutely true. We don't fear being failures, we are afraid of succeeding. Most importantly, we are afraid of the opinions of people around us.
When we try to please everyone around us, we lose ourselves. If there is one thing we should not do, it is regret later in life, when we are actually physically not capable, about things that we could have done all those years ago, but gave up on.
Don't quit. Be confident. And, believe in yourself and your abilities. Don't give up, and for nature's sake, don't ever give excuses to give up on something. No matter what it is, you will not be able to justify it and you will regret.
Most important - look within to find all the support and encouragement you need. After all, no one understands you better than yourself. Then you can motivate yourself to finish everything you begin.

Hmmmm. Chris Kelly was with Facebook from 2005 until August of last year when he took a leave of absence for his run for office. He officially left the company in March to take a swing at public service. Of course, he probably made some serious scratch from his time at Facebook so making this break may be a lot easier for him than for most.
