A Gilbert man on Monday gave the first testimony linking Dale Hausner to the Serial Shooters killing spree, making him perhaps the most important witness yet in the marathon trial.
John Kane, 41, became friends with Hausner in late 2005 while teaching him how to make cash and mix drinks at a Tempe bartending school.
But their budding friendship took a bizarre turn in December of that year, when Hausner offered to help Kane deal with a young woman at the school who had accused him of sexual harassment.
"I asked him what he was going to do about it," Kane testified at Hausner's eight-count murder trial in Maricopa County Superior Court. "He said, 'Don't worry about it. You'll know it when it happens.' "
A few nights later, on Dec. 29, a car believed to belong to the young woman was shot in the parking lot of the ABC Bartending School near Mill Avenue and Baseline Road.
No one was hurt in the shooting, but the bizarre event set the school on edge.
The next morning, Kane said, he had an abrupt conversation with Hausner in the offices of the academy. "I sat down at my desk and said, 'What the (expletive) are you doing?' " Kane testified. "He just smiled and said, 'Taking care of business.' "I asked, 'Did you do that?' "He said, 'Yeah.' " The shooting at the academy is just one of dozens of crimes prosecutors say Hausner committed between May 2005 and August 2006 across the Valley. Hausner, 35, of Mesa, is accused of being the main half of a duo that became known as the Serial Shooters during that period.
His supposed partner, Samuel Dieteman, 33, has already pleaded guilty to two of the murders and agreed to testify against Hausner later this year.
Until Monday, prosecutors had yet to present a single witness linking Hausner to the spree since testimony began two weeks ago.
In fact, Monday's testimony from Kane was the first time Hausner's name has been invoked at all since both the prosecution and defense presented their opening arguments earlier this month.
Kane may end up being one of the key witnesses in the prosecution's case, given that his testimony amounts to a confession by Hausner to at least one nonfatal shooting.
Kane also testified that Hausner hinted at having done other shootings, though he never gave any specifics.
"I made a statement that 'Somebody could have seen you,' " Kane said in court. "He made a statement that 'Nobody's seen me yet.' "
Hausner's attorney is expected to launch a major attack on Kane's credibility today.
A four-time convicted felon, Kane testified that he considers himself a "recovering addict" who "was intoxicated in some way all the time" during the period in which he was friends with Hausner.
Kane was also charged in 2006 with drug and weapons possession and said he had cut a deal with prosecutors in exchange for his testimony in the Hausner trial.
In his opening statements, Hausner's attorney, Ken Everett, said he would use the plea deal to show that Kane has a reason to lie on the stand.
"John Kane starts talking about Dale Hausner being a possible suspect in this case only after he was facing time," Everett said during his Oct. 7 opening statement.
Everett also brought up the fact that Kane himself would have a motive to shoot at the car of the woman who had filed a sexual harassment complaint against him.
"John Kane was a suspect," Everett said at the time.
Everett has his work cut out for him this week. On top of trying to debunk a key witness, he also said in court on Monday that he would like one of the jurors to be kicked off the trial.
The reason? Falling asleep on the job.
One of the youngest jurors, a man who appears to be in his 20s, has been caught napping during testimony at least twice now.
Each time, Everett has complained to Judge Roland Steinle. After the most recent incident, Everett said he wanted the juror to "be excluded right now."
Steinle told Everett that he wasn't ready to yank the juror just yet.
But the judge said that if the man continues to nap, the court may revisit the issue.

LA Times Adds Mary Kaye Schilling to Calendar Weekend–Was Editor at Sassy
John Montorio announced to the ranks of the LA Times that Mary Kaye Schilling, one-time former editor of Entertainment Weekly, is coming in as editor of Calendar Weekend in February.
She's a former editor of Sassy, which makes her an automatically cool chick. Seriously, does the upper management realize how significant that magazine was?
The LA Times had been searching for a while, as the paper plans to relaunch Weekend, along with its companion website, calendarlive.com, often considered to be dismal.
Schilling will be coming to from Australia, where she is currently a top editor at Who magazine for Time Warner. Thus, we can infer, she loves photos of celebrities looking goofy and/or drunk. We hope so, anyway.

About Us
About Regatta Point
Mission Statement:
Regatta Point Community Sailing is a non-profit charitable organization that teaches responsible boating and promotes environmental awareness. This membership based organization's goal is to provide a safe, diverse, accessible, and affordable learning environment for the general public and, especially, for the youth of Central Massachusetts. This goal is accomplished by utilizing the power of volunteerism and fostering a community spirit that instills independence and confidence, and enhances the quality of life. In keeping with our motto "Sailing for All!" RPCS prices it programs to ensure that the greatest number of people can participate. We apply for and secure grants to keep our children's program affordable.
In the late '50s, the then Department of Environmental Management contacted Community Boating of Boston (CBI) for help establishing a community boating organization in the Worcester Area. Allan Fearn, the assistant manager of CBI at the time, provided plans that he drew up in college for what would later become the John F. Kennedy Boat House on Lake Quinsigamond. In July 1, 1960, Community Sailing of Worcester opened its doors with Allan Fearn as the Manager. It began by teaching children ages 12 and up to how to sail. A month later, the Adult Program was up and running.
1960 – 1963, the program was run under the guidance and funding of the Community Boating of Boston's board of directors. In the spring of 1963, Regatta Point Community Sailing, Inc. (RPCS) the non-profit corporation was born. Al Fearn was named the manager.
1963- 1999, Allan Fearn was the manager of Regatta Point Community Sailing, Inc. During his time, we educated thousands of kids and adults alike. Many of these people still keep in contact with RPCS and have gone on to be lifelong sailors. Al saw the changing of the fleet of sailboats from the original Rebels to the DaySailor and finally to the modern White 14s. During his tenure as manager, no child with swimming ability was ever turned away from the program, a tradition that still continues to this day.
1998, after 39 years in service, the state legislature under the guidance of Representative Ron Gauch approved funds for remodeling the building. At the dedication ceremony, it was unveiled that the boathouse would be named after Allan E. Fearn, the man who gave so much to the Greater Worcester Community.
1999 – 2000 Gordon Battye, Al's right hand man for 30+ years stepped in continuing the legacy that Al built. Gondon's ability to lead the adult sailing program was unmatched and his years of experience in teaching were invaluable to the entire program. Gordon retired and stayed involved with RPCS until his passing in 2011. There is a memorial scholarship fund in his name to continue his goal that all children will be able to sail regardless of their finical means.
2000 –2001 Michael Aghajanian was hired after spending every summer since he was 10 years old at the boathouse. At 21 he had big shoes to fill and was named Executive Director. His focus was building the youth camp and membership while setting the stage for future generations. Michael left RPCS after being called up by his Marine reserve unit due to 9-11. After his tour of dury, Michael went on to be the High Performance Director at Community Boating in Boston. In 2004, he joined on the board of Directors as Corporation Clerk until he purchased his own boating company in 2008. He wouldn't be where he is at without RPCS and still stays in touch.
2002 – 2012, John Mullaney was first exposed to RPCS when he brought a group of kids from YOU, Inc. John had years of experience behind him in management, team building, youth outreach, and building programs. He brought his experience, that salty sailor look, and love for the program. He dedicated himself to revitalizing an organization and ensuring it's future. The organization grew substantially with the summer camp setting new records. His is directly credited with bring safety, fun, and learning as a concept to RPCS. He retired in 2012, and still keeps in touch.
2012 – Current, Casey Duva has been involved with RPCS since 2001. He got involved when he was on Worcester States Crew team and met Michael down on the docks. He has been a lifelong sailor growing up in North Kingston. He has spent summers sailing his families 1948 all wooden 8-Meter called King Haakon. Age finally caught up to the boat in 2012 but the memories will last forever. Now he can be found sailing on Orion a 1980 Hunter 37.

Let's say the ratings on short-term U.S. government securities get cut? Does that trigger a mandatory sell-off? Probably not.
Money market funds are required by law and by their own charters to hold only high-quality securities. So if the ratings agencies downgrade the credit of the United States, will they have to sell their Treasury holdings?
This is a question that quite rightly has investors nervous. Money market funds are major holders of U.S. Treasuries. If they were all forced to suddenly dump their Treasury bonds because of a downgrade, the market would be flooded, prices would tumble and markets would become quite chaotic.
Fortunately, this fear is overblown. The SEC's regulations for money market funds do include a rating requirement for money market fund investments--but that requirement is so loose that it is unlikely to trigger a forced sell-off.
What Reagan Would Have Done
Billionaire Soros Nixes Hedge Fund Role
Can the Fed Avert Debt Limit Doom?
The first place to start is to notice that all that matters is the short-term credit rating. This is the rating that might be downgraded if the U.S. doesn't reach a deal to raise the debt ceiling, making a quick default likely. The latest noises out of Washington, D.C., indicate there's almost no chance of that happening.
A downgrade of the US government's long-term credit rating might come about if Moody's or S&P decide that the debt ceiling deal plugs a short term hole in our budget while not addressing the issue of sustainability. This might have other market effects, but it won't trigger any regulatory requirement for a money market fund sell-off.
All that matters is the short-term credit rating, as far as the regulations are concerned.
But let's say the ratings on short-term U.S. government securities get cut? Does that trigger a mandatory sell-off? Probably not.
The regulations say money market funds can purchase securities that agencies rate in their highest (or "First Tier") or second-highest (or "Second Tier) rating levels. Those tiers each include a number of ratings. The First Tier starts at AAA and goes all the way down to single A, in S&P's categorizations. The Second Tier goes all the way down to BBB.
Here's a helpful chart from the Investment Company Institute that shows the ratings levels eligible and ineligible for acquisition by money market funds.
The ICI adds:
Downgrading the U.S. government's short-term rating below Second Tier would be the equivalent of taking its long-term credit rating down by approximately eight steps, from AAA/Aaa to BBB+/Baa2. Indeed, even to reach Second Tier, a downgrade must be equivalent to taking the United States' long-term credit rating down by approximately six steps. None of the discussion by major credit rating agencies has contemplated a downgrade of U.S. government debt of that magnitude.
In short, there won't be a forced sell-off unless the short-term debt of the U.S. government gets downgraded much, much further than anyone imagines.

In Celebration of Herstory: Wangari Mathaai Day -Nairobi Update Day 3
I am sitting in a large conference room at UN headquarters in Gigiri, Kenya. It is 20 minutes to the hour of 10am, and the space is all set to celebrate herstory of a phenominal woman, Wangari Mathaai. The history of Kenya cannot be separated from this female larger than life heroine who sacrificed her entire ernegies to save flora and fauna in the country, but mostly also, to prove to the denying world that woman is able to set and press for transformative agenda. On my way from the hotel I had the honour to strike a conversation with Harmony Amenya, the Greenbelt appointed driver who transported me and some of the women delegates in my group to this venue. He pointed to me Karura forest, a lush green natural preserve in the city centre where Professor Wangari Mathaai planted five million trees, and boldly stood naked in protest against the Moi government's will to cut down trees to build a 57 storey building. Professor Mathaai is to me a symbol of perseverance, courage and resistance, and of the success and honour that these will bring in the long run. I am greatly honoured to be part of this herstoric moment in Kenya. At a deeper level, that the Regional meeting I am attending coincides with this highly important herstoric moment is not a coincidence, but is of highly political significance. This for me is a reminder moment to learnt from for African women gathered here to push the agenda of stopping rape and gender violence in conflict. It speaks to the need for us to employ various strategies, both home grown and learnt from other spaces to confront our detractors. It also speaks to the need to never give up in the midst of the fight despite the threats, because only firm feet and strong hands can collectively stop a menacing river. We are indeed faced with concrete living testimony of the beauties of embracing the challenge to strategically forego our personal comforts and boldly stand to score for the gains of the collective. The women's delegation is today going to undertake advocacy visits to their respective embassies in Nairobi to push for the Stop Rape and Violence Campaign. Good luck women, and may the undying spirit of Wangari Mathaai go infront of you to guide you, and also behind you to protect you.
Lovely Update!
Hello Chibairo, I am glad to read such a lovely update from you. I hold Wangari Maathai very dear to my heart and she remains an inspiration.
I wish you and your fellow participants the very best as you push for the 'Stop Rape and Violence Campaign.
Thanks for sharing.

Then to flagstop to get her car wash. anddddd david brown was there! always fun running into him.Monday-Thursday, January 5th-8th Monday and Wednesday consisted of skool and busy-ness.

In Mr. Mingus's English class on Thursday, Trevor brought me a box of chocolates [since he has stocked up on them from christmas] and there was a "To/From" label on the box. so, i thought it would be funny to write "To: Mr. Mingus From: Trevor <3" so, i did. i was going to give it to Mr. Mingus right then, but he was no where to be seen. As Trevor tried to get the box from me, i threw it to Lillian Miller where she then put it on Mr. Mingus's desk.

I knew my cycle after the mc would be wacky but right after the miscarriage I got AF 2 weeks later, and now my cycle length is only 19 days. I guess it is good it is lengthening but I just want it back to normal already!

Sorry I haven't been around. Well I have been but not posting as much as I normally do. I've been super busy at work and now I am working 9 hour days M-Th and then 4 hours on Friday. It will be nice to have most of Friday off though.
Anyway David is sort of crawling. he tries to crawl and then he gets frustrated and gives up. I think he'll be crawling for sure in a few weeks. I will be surprised if he doesn't.
So dh and I have been talking about #2 I know my son is barely 8 mos old and we're talking about it already but I am going to be 35 in September so I feel my clock ticking. We're going to start trying in December 2011 once David turns 2. That way #2 will come along either shortly before or after he turns 3. I don't want 2 in diapers and don't want them any closer together than that. My brother was born 3 months before I turned 3 so I think it's a great age gap. Hopefully we will have the baby shortly after I turn 37 and we will be done at that point. We always wanted 2 since we come from 2 parent families. Plus, we can't afford to send more than 2 to Catholic school. The high school here is $10,000 a year! But we'll find some way to afford it I'm sure.

Amy, isn't it crazy how fast this has gone? What happened to our EC? LoL I hope your cycles get back to normal soon. How is the transition going for moving and all?
Sandy, how exciting to have a date semi set for number 2. DH and I have a tentative date set. We will see what happens when it gets closer to. 10,000 for high school. Wow
Christine, I hope today went better then you antisipated!
AF Mr Simon, We have a mover! He isn't crawling but we roll all over and scoot and pull ourself all over the floor. He is working on sitting and he does pretty well. We are a veggie eating machine. So far we have carrots, green beans, peas, potatoes, sweet taters, peas, broccoli, cauliflower and then sweet taters with spinich (popeye taters.) We have also had apples and just starting on pears. I also made a peice of meat for him to try and blend up for him to sample probably over the weekend while I'm home for a few days.
|Mon, 08-02-2010 - 9:55pm
Wow, WTG Simon! Our WTTG babies are starting to get mobile!!
Eliza started crawling this weekend - it's official! She really knows what she's doing now and can get across the room easily. We're in trouble now! She's still slow, but I know she'll pick up speed with each day she practices. It's so darn cute, and I'm such a proud mama. I almost cried when she crawled across the kitchen to get to me!
Christine - how did your first day go? I hope it wasn't too bad. I was thinking of you today!
We've been quiet around here lately. Where did everyone go?? It's like we're all busy with something else these days... hahaha. ;)
Hope everyone is doing well. I can't believe it's August. That's just insane!
|Mon, 08-02-2010 - 10:04pm
Amy - Hope your cycles straighten out soon and the move is going well! I can't believe Jensen is almost 7 months either!
Ella - WTG Eliza on crawling! I have a feeling Selin may be one of those babies who skips crawling and goes right to walking. She is rolling now, but not much of a scooter, and still loves to stand and when DH was holding on the carpet last night she was trying to take steps!
Cassie - That is great that Simon is such a great eater. We sort of started solids tonight. I gave Selin half a banana to hold and she loved nibbling on it. Love your new siggy!
Sandy - I'm jealous that you already have a TTC #2 date picked out. I'm afraid to have that convo with DH right now with everything we have going on but I'm hoping by next summer at the latest we'll be on the TTC journey again.
AFM - Thanks everyone for thinking of me today. Overall I did better than expected but not my poor baby. She basically starved herself all day and now my parents are blaming me for it. I posted the full story in my thread about 'My Own D-Day' so I won't take up space here. Ugh, I just hope this is a very temporary arrangement because I am so exhausted with my commute and Selin's feeding issues.
|Tue, 08-03-2010 - 2:27am
Christine- Hugs! Babies hate change and need time to adjust, I am sure in a week it will be a completely different story. Also have you thought about introducing veggie purees? Theo needed about 1-2 weeks to get the hang of it and now he can eat almost a whole jar of a vegetable plus potato (that is all it is just vegetable, potato, rapeseed oil-I believe that is canola in the States). Which really does fill him up. We also do dinkel/hirse/or reis (spelt, sorghum,or rice) porridge with pear or apple and milk at night.
But either way I am sure Selin will get the hang of it, or just start drinking out of a cup more often:)
Sandy: Congrats on figuring out a TTC date. We also just recently decided that we will definitely have 3, but haven't set a date for TTC number 2. I think we will probably start next fall.
Ella: Congrats on Eliza crawling!! That is great news, how exciting!
Amy: I hope your cycle gets better soon.
Cassie: Way to introduce so many veggies to Simon, I bet he is really enjoying the variety!
AFM: We are doing SO good. Everything is so much easier when you have a baby that sleeps longer stretches then 90 minutes. I mean honestly I don't even know how I got through the first 3 1/2 months! Teddy is now sleeping at least 1 5-7 hour stretch every night and it is great! Thankfully he often does his longest stretch starting from around midnight when I go to bed, which I really appreciate! As it is no problem to feed him once or twice between 7pm and midnight when I am up anyway. He also now wakes up in the morning and is always just talking to himself and cooing when I get him out of his bed at around 7:15. He takes 2-3 naps and his first nap is normally 2-3 hours! I feel like we have the perfect baby now LOL.
He also LOVES solids and got the hang of it almost right away. He eats potatoes and vegetables, and today we are introducing a meat to it. We also do porridge with a fruit at night sometimes. I am not really worrying about allergies but we are trying to stay gluten free until 10 months.
Thomas is definitely on board for having three which I think is great! But we won't be TTC until at least late summer or fall of 2011.
|Tue, 08-03-2010 - 3:00am
Jensen just got his first tooth in tonight!! I was exhausted and he was sleepy at 8 so I did his bedtime routine an hour early thinking he would just sleep. HA. He screamed for an HOUR! Finally I laid him in bed with him instead of comforting him or holding him, and he grabbed my hand and pulled it to his mouth and I felt his little tooth lol. He was like uh duh mom!! So got him some tylenol, went outside for some fresh air, gave him another bottle, and he went to sleep with minimal fussing at 10:30pm. Now I am no longer tired. That's how it works right?
Being away from Rob is hard, but he's on top of things down there and I am not really worried. I am hoping he gets a job this week, but his parents are keeping him in check so I know he isn't slacking off or trying to take a little vacation. My mom offered to pay our first and last months rent if we ended up moving here, and she told me that she wants to sit down with my dad if Rob gets things together so we can move out there, and figure out the best way to help us so the transition is not so hard. She said she is perfectly willing to help so long as we help ourselves first. And that is perfectly fine with me.

Well I guess I spoke too soon. Dh is wondering how we are going to afford #2. He said we can barely afford our son and we're broke trying to afford him. It's just I don't want to wait too long. I am willing to wait maybe a few months after he turns 2 but no longer than 2 1/2. First I don't want them to be too far apart and secondly my age. I am hoping to be done by 37 or 38 at the very latest. Anyway should I just drop it for now and then mention it in maybe 6 mos to a year? He seemed OK with it but after reading about some of the other dh's on here I shouldn't be surprised that he changed his mind. I mean it's not like we're TTC and it's a year from this coming December. So I am going to say we're going to TTC in December and see what happens. A lot can happen in that time. I just guess I wanted to have a date set so I had a peace of mind that we are going really do it and not what happened before. We had so many fights/arguments before TTC our son. I wanted him sooner and he wanted to wait longer. I am glad we waited longer in the end and it was so worth it. I think once we pay some of our bills off it will help and he'll feel better about the whole thing. I wish men could make up their minds when it comes to this. Those of you who your dh didn't do this you are so lucky. I had baby fever for almost 2 years before my dh agreed.
|Tue, 08-03-2010 - 11:27am
Christine, I'm glad that your first day back went well for you. Give Selin time she will get it all figured out. I'm sorry your parents are pressing you on things. I have yet to try Simon on bananas. They don't like me (as in the cut off my airway) so I'm a little scared to try them on him.
Ash, what kind of meat and how are you preparing it for Theo? I was just considering it for Simon to go with his veggies. I do have a porkchop, mushroom and onion meal blended up in the freezer that was left overs one night from DH and I. I also have

Officer shot in marathon showdown condemns coverJuly 18, 2013 @ 4:56 am
BOSTON (AP) - The transit police officer who was shot during a showdown with the Boston Marathon bombing suspects says he hopes the Rolling Stone cover story on Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-HAHR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv) doesn't glorify him in readers' eyes.
Officer Richard Donohue told NBC's "Today" show Thursday that he was surprised at the cover of the magazine's Aug. 1 edition. The close-up of Tsarnaev looks more like one of the rock stars that usually grace the magazine's cover.
Donohue criticized Rolling Stone's cover choice. In his words: "They could've picked anybody else. There's a number of people they could have picked for an arts and entertainment magazine than an alleged bomber."
Rolling Stone editors said in a statement that the story falls within the traditions of journalism and the magazine's commitment to serious and thoughtful coverage.

As some of you know, I have been very worried about my little cat Jakey who last weekend became very ill. This morning Jakey crossed the rainbow bridge and he is now Home.
This blog is a tribute to my beloved little Jakey.
It was a little over a year ago in late autumn when I first met Jakey. I was driving down a neighborhood street when I heard a woman scream. I quickly looked her way and much to my surprise spotted a tiny black cat. He was standing on nails the length of stilts with long hair severely knotted. But it was his incessant yowling in a deep, gravely voice that really caught my attention. So I quickly got out of my car and grabbed him. And there we sat in the front seat of my rusty 95 Corolla, staring at each other. Somewhere during the time I was admiring his four fangs that pointed in four directions, Jakey made the decision to keep me and I in turn fell in love.
So off we went to the vet for a check up and a shave. The news was not good.
Jakey was very underweight and needed medication for an overactive thyroid, hence the yowl. I was ok with this. But then the vet told me that Jakey was old and that just about broke my heart. So I bought him the best food on the market and took him home determined to love him with such an intensity that he would leave this world knowing that he was valued and cherished.
My life with Jakey began the day the lion-shaved crotchety cat arrived home, gave one major hiss at his siblings that left them scattering and claimed my bedroom as his living quarters. It was there that he ate his meals, took his naps and occasionally looked out the window to catch up on the neighborhood gossip. Once the yowling was under control I began to get to know Jakey. What he lacked in weight and size he made up in personality. He was brilliant, opinionated and obstinate and on a regular basis tried to bite me with fangs that fortunately could not make serious contact. And every night he would redeem himself by curling up beside my head and wrapping his tail around my hand like a little monkey. And as the months passed, Jakey's tail quietly wrapped itself around my heart.
Deciding when it is time to let a beloved pet go has got to be one of the most painful and difficult decisions for a pet owner. But today I was blessed as I learnt that Jakey was emaciated due to cancer and that I was letting him go before he had begun to suffer. He has now crossed the Rainbow Bridge and is in the fine company of many of your beloved pets.
Welcome Home sweet Jakey.
My best friend Sarina died last Thursday after fighting an impossible battle with ovarian cancer. Although she fought with everything that she had she actually never had a chance. Her cancer was aggressive and relentless resisting all chemotherapy and experimental treatments. It slowly took her life piece by piece. She fought because she believed that life was precious and she fought for those who loved her.
It is a very special thing to have a best friend for 35 years. It also makes it unbearable to say good-bye.
I always told Sarina that she was a brilliant light and that this world needed her desperately. I told her that it was inconceivable to imagine a world without her in it. Yet she is gone and the world is going on without her.
Last night coming home from my adopted family, I met a new tenant on the elevator. Actually I did not want to meet him, but he held the elevator as I parked the car.
When I looked at him to say thank you I saw bulges and deep scars along his head and I immediately looked away. He asked me if I had a good day. I smiled and lied saying it was wonderful. He then turned to me, looked me deep in the eyes and said that last week he had the best day of his life. This caught my interest and I found myself asking him why. He told me that last week he learnt that he was still cancer free, six year later. He was literally bursting with joy. So I got off the elevator with him and I told him about my friend who died last Thursday who at the end of her life suffered terribly from brain tumors. I looked into his smiling, victorious eyes and simply said: Please, for Sarina's sake, live your life full and live it well. He smiled. And we went our separate ways.
This blog is dedicated to Michelle who I have long suspected is my friend because she fell in love with Noah.
During the final episode of Alli McBeal my phone rings. Reluctantly I answer, and am greeted by a woman who is clearly in crisis. She starts off by saying that she got my phone number from someone who has my phone number from someone--people in animal rescue know the drill and cringe when a conversation begins like this. It is never good and I start to prepare myself for the inevitable. So, she begins...
She explains to me that she had heard some strange mewing sounds coming from her garden and had gone out in the rain to investigate. What she found, she wasn't quite sure but believed it to be a newborn kitten. I sigh. This is clearly not going well. Next she tells me that she has heard I rescue cats and since she works full- time and this kitten clearly needs 24 hour round the clock care, she will have to put it to sleep if I don't take it. I silently complement her on her delivery. The possible kitten is now mine. And so Noah arrives not only wrapped in an insole of a shoe but is actually in a shoebox. When I check him out he is really quite something. His tiny ears are pinned down, his eyes are locked closed and his tail is longer then his whole body. I look at his tiny square orange face that resembles a minuscule tiger and I fall in love. Casey, my male dog has also apparently fallen in love and is hysterical to get closer to Noah. I put the shoe box down, and he takes a quick look inside to confirm his suspicions and we go to sleep with Casey guarding Noah and his shoebox. The next morning I go about creating Noah's incubator. I place a heater in the bathroom full blast and fill a
box with layers and layers of soft liners. Noah is now upgraded from a shoe box to a UPS box, and Casey is frantic. I then stock up on mamalac amid warnings not to get too attached to Noah as he is too young to survive without his mother. I try my best not to glare at these well-intentioned people and return to my baby determined that he will make it. I wake up every 3 hours to feed him without an alarm and I rub his bum to simulate a mother's cat tongue. I bring him to the couch where he falls asleep under my chin, and then pass out for a few hours only to begin the cycle again. Seven days later, Noah's eyes open and he looks straight at me. I can see that he is not impressed. I quickly try to assure him that he takes after his father and not to panic. He is still not impressed.
By three weeks, Noah wants out of the box. He lunges at the wall of the box, pulls himself up to the rim and then topples onto the tiles. The first time I think it is a fluke, the second time I know I am in trouble. This minuscule orange kitten has decided that he wants out and there is no box that is going to be big enough to contain him. So Noah begins to walk, with Casey on top of him like a portable roof. My life has gone from the mundane to the absurd.
Next I take him to the vet for his weekly check-up and am told that Noah is underweight. I return home with Casey and baby Noah and a few cans of wet food. Noah loves the food and start scoffing it down. I watch, alarmed but fascinated until he starts to wobble. I think I am imagining this due to sleep deprivation when he hits the floor unconscious. I rush baby Noah to the vet who gives him three adrenalin shots and nothing. My vet begins to panic which is never good and I am told to rush Noah to an animal hospital, and do I think I can drive? It was a good question as given the choice I would have preferred to pass out. So, I am in the car, shaking as I drive my unconscious pediatric kitten to the hospital. As I pull into the parking area, he wakes up. Noah is completely alert and immensely pleased with himself. I am muttering under my breathe as I cross the threshold of the hospital at $175.00. A vet comes to examine him and is fascinated with his little patient. I am less amused. He suggests that Noah should stay for observation. I suggest that Noah is a piglet. Noah stays. At 4:00 am the vet calls me with an update. Noah has now been under observation for hours and has not stopped eating the whole time. He suggests that Noah is indeed a piglet. A few hundred dollars later, I take my baby piglet home.
The next time I see Noah's vet, he tells me it is now time for me to teach Noah how to use the cat litter. I honestly think he is kidding. The vet is not kidding. On the way home I decide to let the cats raise Noah from now on for both our sakes.
Today, Noah is a very strange cat. He does not run properly, making circles with his back legs as he gains speed. He looks absolutely ridiculous and like all moms, I feel responsible. Noah giggles, sulks, and he tells me off on a regular basis.
At night, he loves to run over my body in the dark which makes me crazy much to his delight and in the morning he asks for food with the soft sounds he made as a baby. There are now younger cats living with us but Noah has maintained his status as babycat of the family. Now that Casey is gone, Noah is attempting to make friends with my neighbor's huge dog. I often ask him, where is Casey and Noah will pretend to look for him. I know better. Typical kid, he's just not telling.
It's about a week now since I wrote my first blog. My friend has been very busy entertaining friends from Texas then off to an overnight in Quebec City to receive an award for her 25 years of contribution to her union. Next she has birthdays to celebrate with her family. My friend has been living in a whirlwind of activity for the last week and is so exhausted that she does not have time to think or to feel. Our conversations have been short, basically quick reports of the day as she is off to the next activity or retreating to sleep. The only indication that something is wrong is the fact that sleep eludes her. The subconscience is not fooled. It signals over and over again that there is something wrong. My friend is not listening and keeps moving at a pace that
exhausts me to listen.
So, there has been little time for anger and a lot of time for me to regroup.
Thanks to you, my wonderful friends at Sparks and the support of my girlfriends at home I have found my centre again. I am now deeply rooted into mother earth and will not be so easily thrown around should the winds and stormclouds return.
I have learnt many things this week. The most profound of my lessons has been about trust and honesty. I was vey scared to share with people who I cannot see or hear the underbelly of my life. I was terribly afraid that my spark friends would run from me, and that I would feel exposed and alone. This did not happen. The second thing I learnt is that protecting another from one's own pain because they are also suffering is disrespectful and does not allow the other the gift of giving and comforting. I know this firsthand as I watch my friends give to me as I am broke. I have to take a deep breathe and learn how to receive. So for you who are receiving perhaps too many goodies from me, know that the ability to give is a great source of pleasure and healing for me.
I have learnt that virtual friends are very much like real friends--they come in all shades of color from the palest to the deepest in shades, and that all are delightful.
I thank the bluebirds of the earth for bringing me here and have respectfully
dedicated part of my photo album to these incredible birds who inspire so much joy and hopefulness in so many.
Thank you for taking the time to read this blog.
I bow down to the Light that is within you. Namaste

Not only is the U.S. work force becoming more diverse, but it is also aging, as baby boomers reach their 50s, 60s and 70s. As a result, experts say, the entrepreneur of the future is likely to be older, more attuned to the older population's needs, and more willing to trade some income for a better lifestyle. An SBA study released in 2000, "The Third Millennium: Small Business and Entrepreneurship in the 21st Century," notes that the average age of a worker will increase from 35.9 years in 1988 to 40.7 years in 2008. What's more, corporate downsizing over the past 20 years pushed many midcareer workers out of corporate jobs, enlarging the pool of older potential entrepreneurs. The SBA believes that, between 1996 and 2006, the number of self-employed workers will grow by 50 percent, in part because of these older entrepreneurs. This growth probably will occur no matter whether the American economy as a whole tanks or soars.
Because many of these older entrepreneurs come from the corporate ladder, they may not be willing to start businesses that force them to work like maniacs in occupations they don't love. Mark Henricks, author of Not Just a Living: The Complete Guide to Creating a Business That Gives You a Life and Entrepreneur contributing writer, calls these people who shun overwork and prefer jobs that suit their lives "lifestyle entrepreneurs." These are men and women for whom enjoying their personal life is as important as making a lot of money, and who set up companies in places they like, in ways that facilitate family time and in industries they enjoy. "The percentage of lifestyle entrepreneurs will go up [as the population ages because] your typical lifestyle entrepreneur is someone in midlife who is burned out, has skills and resources, and wants to do something more rewarding," Henricks says.
Indeed, Jane Pollak, author of Soul Proprietor: 101 Lessons From a Lifestyle Entrepreneur, says, "I'm part of the graying baby boomer generation. We don't want to play cards [in retirement]. We're saying, 'What can we do?'" More and more boomers are finding the answer in lifestyle businesses, Pollak says.
Nancy Peklo-Nosal, who left a travel agency she was working for to start her own business, providing administrative services to other travel companies, is a member of this lifestyle entrepreneur group. She says a major factor in her decision to start her company, Design Travel Management Group Inc. in Arlington Heights, Illinois, was "wanting to work from home. I'm more free to make my own schedule."
Pollak also believes the recent ethics problems in large corporations have turned people away from big business, driving them into lifestyle entrepreneurship. Indeed, in the future, lifestyle entrepreneurs may be more likely to create socially conscious companies-ones that pay higher wages or devote resources to community activism, for example-because they focus less on maximizing income and more on other goals. And because many lifestyle entrepreneurs are in their middle or older years, they may be more attuned to aging customers' needs. "We'll see more and more entrepreneurs adapting to an aging population," Marks says. For example, he believes more small businesses will offer flextime not only for parents of small children, but also for sons and daughters of elderly parents who need more care.
Technology and the revolution in business supplies will help facilitate lifestyle entrepreneurship in the coming years. Brett Schulte, 36, is a former dotcom worker who went on vacation to Mexico's Baja California and loved the area so much, he moved his family there. In the Baja, Schulte has set up shop as a Web consultant for local resorts. Speaking with Entrepreneur from a remote beach on a radio phone powered by solar energy, he says: "Technology is making geography less important. [VoIP] is enabling me to have a U.S. phone number in Mexico." So clients can call him in the United States and never know he's working from his laptop on a Mexican beach. What's more, because Home Depot and Staples now carry products for roughly the same prices as suppliers to large companies, small lifestyle entrepreneurs can source their supplies at the same low costs as big firms.
|Second Chances
By the time he founded his logistics company, Tommy Hodinh had already succeeded in life-just by staying alive. A Vietnamese refugee who arrived in the United States in 1972 at age 18 with limited English skills, Hodinh managed to put himself through college. He then worked for IBM for 15 years, first as an engineer and later as a member of the management team. But the whole time he worked for Big Blue, he knew he wanted something else. "I always wished I had the money to start a company. I had experience, but I didn't have the capital," Hodinh says.
By the 1990s, the barriers to starting a small technology company had dropped considerably. "It didn't cost that much to start a business [anymore]," Hodinh says. "A small office cost a couple hundred dollars [per] month; you could get incorporated for a few thousand dollars. I could start a business with my own savings." In 1990, he co-founded MagRabbit Inc., a software duplication and logistics firm in Austin, Texas. Growth was slow and steady, but six years later, the company was big enough to get a commercial bank loan; now it has more than 100 employees, nearly $10 million in annual sales and clients around the world.
Hodinh has proved to be an example to many other Asian Americans in Texas. "I was the only Vietnamese American in the software business [in Austin] when I started out," Hodinh says. "But now, the Vietnamese- American business community is much larger. I came here when I was 18, and my English wasn't good, but the [Vietnamese Americans] who were born here, they're well-equipped to compete in business."

I suggest getting one of the GBA games like Emerald, then you can get more pokemon and migrate them. Otherwise, check our pokedex here for the ones you're missing to see if you can get them in the games you already have. http://pokemondb.net/pokedex/all Try also, http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net they are more detailed in some places. answered May 20, 2010 by Pokemaster Please log in or register to add a comment. 4 votes In heart gold you can get on of each region's starters after beating Red. He has charizard, blastoise and venasaur if you need them. My pokemon ranch is how you get mew, and in heart gold you can get many other legendary pokemon from Kanto, Hoen and Shinoh.

Why Bank of America Really Killed Its Card Fee
NEW YORK ( MainStreet) -- When Bank of America (BAC) announced last week it would nix its proposed $5 monthly debit card fee, the official explanation given was that the company was responding to the "concerns" of its customers, but that may be putting it too lightly. In reality, it may be due more to the bank's concerns that it wouldn't have nearly as many customers if the fee went into effect.
At least 650,000 consumers have joined credit unions since Sept. 29, when Bank of America announced it would introduce a debit card fee in the coming months, according to a report released Thursday by the Credit Union National Association, which is based on surveys of 5,000 credit unions nationwide.
While the survey doesn't show which companies the new credit union customers may have banked with before, the survey did find that four in every five credit unions that experienced a surge in members attributed it to the blowback from fees being considered by big banks such as Bank of America.At the same time, it's worth noting that this survey doesn't factor in the number of consumers making a last-minute switch as part of Bank Transfer Day, the massive social media-driven movement that was urging consumers to close their accounts with the big banks before Saturday. While the full effect of Bank Transfer Day won't be known for days or even weeks, media reports from across the country showed thousands were out over the weekend to make their point to the big banks. Even The Wall Street Journal, which snarked that "people who gravitate to credit unions tend to be unprofitable for giant banks because of the small balances they keep on deposit," acknowledged the numbers involved -- anecdotally.
On Saturday, the Boeing Employees' Credit Union in Seattle signed up a one-day record 659 new members. At the grand opening of a Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union branch in Pflugerville, Texas, the parking lot was so full that customers had to leave their cars across the street.The Journal's headline? "Credit Unions Poach Clients." After years of being able to increase fees with little fear that customers would jump ship, the big banks finally had a reason to cave to consumer demands, perhaps most of all for Bank of America. One survey released last week before Bank of America killed off its debit card fee found that only 40% of the bank's customers planned to keep it as their primary bank going forward. The survey also found that just more than a quarter of Bank of America's customers were satisfied with the bank overall. The findings were the lowest by far of any major bank. Given this reality, going through with the $5 fee could easily have been the final straw for many customers. >To submit a news tip, email: email@example.com.

Rate Dr. Sean M. McFadden
Dr. Sean M. McFadden's Ratings
Dr. McFadden is great. He's a little unorthodox but by no means is that an unwelcome or unprofessional thing. His laid back approach puts you at ease. I came into his office feeling pretty hopeless after 2 other dr.s misdiagnosed me and he fixed my problem in the time frame that he hoped to have it resolved. I used to have anxiety about such visits but Dr. McFadden has pretty much helped me overcome those fears. He's very knowlegeable and personable. Great sense of humor.

I am extremely disappointed. Promises were made by the office (Dr & PA) about assisting me with the resolution of an ongoing problem. Yet after they referred me to 2 seperate specialist which I made appointments to see but had not got the chance to see them (I needed to get the appoinmtnets made - maybe Dr. McFadden doesn't understand that most specialist, especialy the type he referred me to can NOT be seen the very day you call, most have a month to 3 month waiting period), HE withdrew the help and promises that were made. I have never had a doctor or nurse treat me so poorly before. I would definately not recomend Sarpy County OBGYN to anyone.

Dr. McFadden is the best OBGYN I have ever been to. He pays very close attention to you when you are being seen by him. He will make sure that you are seen the same day if you or he believes that it is that important. I will not change doctors unless he and his wife move or retire.

Very good doctor... Very busy with ob but took that time to come back to the room and then send me some info in the mail. Good sense of humor as well. Gets to the point and makes you feel relaxed...

Dr. McFadden is a good doctor. However, I always wait at least an hour and they just expect you to never say anything. It's like their time is so much more valuable then yours. I feel like he does not take the time to really make sure everything is ok. Also, the staff is very unfriendly and they are always having their own personal conversations. It's almost like the patient is bothering them. Not impressed with the office as a whole. The finance lady is not very nice she thinks she knows your insurance better than you. Won't go back if I have another child.

Had to see Mcfadden because his wife was doing a delivery and had a great visit. Came in for a simple issue and he could of been in and out but because he was complete he picked up a thyroid mass and had surgery the next week. Very laid back as well, coffee in hand, made me feel relaxed....Great couple and a great team!!!!!Nice office as well.

Dr.McFadden makes you feel like you are the only patient he has. He takes the time to get to know you, will squeeze you in if you feel that you need it, and always takes the time to make sure you leave his office without any questions. He has the BEST bedside manner ever! and he really knows what he is talking about. He puts me at ease and I trust him. If he cannot see you for some reason his wife, Dr. Thatcher (Kay) is just as awesome!

I was a postmenopausal patient with many undiagnosed problems. Had been to more than one physician to try and find out what was causing my problems. Dr. McFadden listened to me for about 10 minutes and knew exacly what the problems were and within two months I was feeling like a new women! I have continued to see Dr. McFadden and have great faith in him as a physician.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][2058195].votes_count ]]
Dr. McFadden it the best! I have been a patient of his for over 20 years. I was a patient when he practiced in Chicago and he took good care of me with my high risk pregnancy. I moved to Nebraska and he was my doctor there as well. Now I'm back in Chicago and will be making a flight to see him for my annual visit. He treats you with respect and he knows his stuff. I would recommend him to every woman I know because he's that good.

- Oscar Winners 2012
- Posted 36 months ago by Jack Lowe · film · 5442 Views
The Artist, a silent film which we thought was absolutely fantastic, tied with the Martin Scorsese film Hugo at the 84th annual Academy Awards, with both taking home five awards. The overall victory was with The Artist, however, earning three of the top awards. The Artist won for Best Picture, Best Costume Design, Best Original Score, Best Actor, and Best Director, while Hugo took Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, and Best Visual Effects.
The rest of the evening was relatively uneventful, apart from Sacha Baron Cohen, one of Hugo's stars, being escorted from the red-carpet area after turning up in a fake beard and uniform, a fake jar of Kim Jong-il's ashes, and a pair of female body guards.

Ball like church Bells INDEED…and with no details. I can only imagine the barroom story!
Is it just me, or does the thing next to the rifle-holding arm look kind of like a schlong? (BTW, I assume schlong is a nice Yiddish word. Seems appropriate.)
