Here�s What the Next Brain Implant Will Be Made Of
Researchers from the University of Wisconsin, with funding from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, DARPA, have created a new type of brain chip made of graphene that could bring futuristic brain implants much closer to reality.
Defenseone. If you haven�t heard of graphene, you aren�t alone. In 2010, Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov received the Nobel Prize in physics for creating it in the usable form we recognize it in today. But in its purest form, it�s been around for billions of years. It�s basically carbon, one atom thick and stuck together in honeycomb shaped bonds, then stacked. Though extremely simple, it�s also miraculous. It�s the most electrically conductive material known to man. A recent DARPA grant allocated just under $30 million to build next generation transistors from graphene. Money from the private sector has been pouring into the development of graphene batteries as a potential replacement for lithium ion.
The Era Of Widespread Biometric Indentification And Microchip Implants Is Here
Are you ready to have your veins scanned every time you use your bank account?
InfoWars Are you ready to have your veins scanned every time you use your bank account? Are you ready to use a �digital tattoo� or a microchip implant to unlock your telephone? Once upon a time we read about such technologies in science fiction novels, but now they are here. The era of widespread biometric identification and microchip implants is upon us, and it is going to change the way that we live. Proponents of these new technologies say that they will make our private information and our bank accounts much more secure. But there are others that warn that these kinds of �Big Brother technologies� will set the stage for even more government intrusion into our lives. In the wrong hands, such technologies could prove to be an absolute nightmare.
BI In March 2009, British researcher Mark Gasson had a chip injected under the skin of his hand. The chip, a slightly more advanced version of the tags used to track pets, turned Gasson into a walking swipe-card. With a wave of his wrist, he could open security doors at the University of Reading laboratory, where his experiment was being conducted, and he could unlock his cell phone just by cradling it.
A year later, Gasson infected his own implant with a computer virus, one that he could pass on to other computer systems if the building's networks were programmed to read his chip. As Gasson breezed around the the workplace, spreading the virus and corrupting computer systems, certain areas of the building became inaccessible to his colleagues.
First offender fitted with stay-sober ankle tag
Sobriety tags, which will be worn around the clock, will enforce abstinence by measuring a person's perspiration every 30 minutes and testing to see if it contains alcohol
Boris Johnson launches sobriety 'tag' scheme for binge drinkers Photo: Alamy
Telegraph UK Ankle tags that detect if someone has consumed alcohol will be fitted to offenders as part of a scheme designed to cut down on violent drink-fuelled crime.
The "sobriety tags", which will be worn around the clock, will enforce abstinence by measuring a person's perspiration every 30 minutes and testing to see if it contains alcohol.
If any trace is found, an alert will be sent to the offender's probation officer and they can then be recalled to court, where they could face sanctions such as a fine or be re-sentenced.
School plans microchip bracelets
A North Canterbury school's plan to fit students with microchip bracelets to track their behaviour has prompted concern among parents.
NOT IN FAVOUR: Kids at Swannanoa School are being measured for microchip bracelets which
will be scanned for good behaviour. Mum-of-two Emma Goodin, pictured with son Jack, is outraged
at the move.
stuff.co.nz Swannanoa School wants to use silicon bracelets as part of a scheme to reward good behaviour, minutes from a Parent Teacher Association meeting show.
Teachers would use portable scanners to add points to a student's online good behaviour chart with a reward when a certain amount of points was accumulated.
The school says the scheme would cost $7000 to set up. The proposal has been opposed by some parents.
The Ministry of Education said it did not recommend the bracelets and would expect broad parent support before it was adopted by the school.
Info War Technology has the potential to create "fearless monsters"
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is developing brain chips that will implant or remove specific memories from a subject, a prospect some may deem chilling given DARPA�s previous advocacy of authentication microchips.
Neuroscientists foresee a brave new world where minds can be programmed using lasers, drugs and microchips in order to create false memories, a technology that has already been used on mice.
�DARPA [the U.S. military�s R&D agency] seems to be going full steam ahead on these kinds of technologies,� neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux told MIT Review. �What they plan to do is put chips in [the brain]. It would be like a prosthesis�instead of moving your arm, you�re fixing memory. I have no idea how they would achieve that.�
EU to bug every car in UK with tracker chips � and Ministers admit they are powerless to stop the Big Brother technology Mail OnlineEvery new car sold in Britain will have to have a �black box� device fitted to track drivers� movements from next year, under plans being imposed by the European Union.
Despite serious concerns about privacy and cost, UK ministers admit they are powerless to stop the Big Brother technology being forced on motorists and car makers. The Government believes the gadget, designed to help emergency services find crashed vehicles, will add at least �100 to the cost of vehicles without providing significant safety improvements.
Is choice lost? Microchips to administer drugs, replace pills
NaturalNews According to reports from CNN, people who use pharmaceutical drugs, but who don't like having to remember, think, exercise their personal agency, or make their own proactive choices throughout their day, may soon be able to get their medications automatically administered via an implanted chip.
MIT researchers and a company called MicroCHIPS are developing a chip smaller than a square inch in area, which can be preloaded with drugs. It can release drugs into your body in given doses and time intervals, programmed according to "doctor's orders" - while your mind wanders on "more important" things.

Here And With Some Very Sinister Implications
Walking Times Among the long list of items bundled by consensus reality merchants under the banner of �conspiracy theory�, is a world without cash � where technocrats rule over the populace, and everything and anything is exchanged via plastic and RFID chips.
In this sterile and controlled Orwellian hi-tech society, the idea of cash being passed from hand to hand would be as archaic as the thought of carrying around a rucksack of tally sticks today.

BBC Propaganda: �Why I Want A Microchip Implant�
Would you like to have an RFID microchip implanted under your skin? If you are anything like me, you would never allow such a thing to be done. But many others, especially among the younger generations, see things very differently. RFID microchip implants and other forms of �wearable technology� are increasingly being viewed as �cool�, �trendy� and �cutting edge� by young people that wish to �enhance� themselves. And of course the mainstream media is all in favor of these �technological advancements�. For example, the BBC just published a piece entitled �Why I Want AMicrochip Implant�. We are told that such implants could solve a whole host of societal problems.

Main Street Media 666 Deception: Why I want a microchip implant
BBC With a chip under your skin, you can do everything from unlocking doors to starting motorbikes, says Frank Swain, who has been trying to get his own implant.
A few years ago, I perched on the edge of my bed in a tiny flat, breathing in a cloud of acetone fumes, using a scalpel to pick at the corner of an electronic travel card. More than 10 million Londoners use these Oyster cards to ride the city�s public transport network. I had decided to dissect mine. After letting the card sit in pink nail polish remover for a week, the plastic had softened enough that I could peel apart the layers. Buried inside was a tiny microchip attached to a fine copper wire: the radio frequency identification (RFID) chip.

'Human barcode' -- Debate heats up over chips in people...
Would you barcode your baby?
Microchip implants have become standard practice for our pets, but have been a tougher sell when it comes to the idea of putting them in people.
Science fiction author Elizabeth Moon last week rekindled the debate on whether it's a good idea to "barcode" infants at birth in an interview on a BBC radio program.
�I would insist on every individual having a unique ID permanently attached � a barcode if you will � an implanted chip to provide an easy, fast inexpensive way to identify individuals,� she said on The Forum, a weekly show that features "a global thinking" discussing a "radical, inspiring or controversial idea" for 60 seconds .
June 2th 2012
Broadcom has just rolled out a chip for smart phones that promises to indicate location ultra-precisely, possibly within a few centimeters, vertically and horizontally, indoors and out.
The unprecedented accuracy of the Broadcom 4752 chip results from the sheer breadth of sensors from which it can process information. It can receive signals from global navigation satellites, cell-phone towers, and Wi-Fi hot spots, and also input from gyroscopes, accelerometers, step counters, and altimeters.

School children in Santa Fe, New Mexico are being compelled to participate in a �Smart Badge� program. These are RFID chips embedded in an ID badge that the kids are required to have with them at all times. With these tags, the children can be (and are) followed and monitored by administrators of the government school system.The program is getting mixed reviews, according to an article at KVUE. Some parents love it. After all, this is being done in the name of the children�s safety. Who doesn�t want kids to be safe, right?Other parents aren�t so sure about this program.
October 6th 2010
Two months ago, PositiveID (PSID) said it was giving up on its implantable radio-frequency medical records microchip, and conspiracy theorists everywhere breathed a sigh of relief: Previously, the only market PositiveID had found for the chip was a group of Alzheimer�s patients in Florida who may not have consented to being implanted.
Indeed, on Sept. 8, PositiveID sold its Health Link business � the product that linked your implanted RFID chip to your online medical records � to �Health Plexus LLC� for $1 million. CEO Scott Silverman described it as �a non-core asset.� (Oddly, Google cannot find a company named Health Plexus LLC on the web. Maybe it�s Plexus Health, a medical billing company. Or Health Plexus India, which operates clinics. Or HealthPlexus.net, a web site for geriatric physicians.)

Pretty good location check in smooth, room tiny, bathroom was a challenge because it was so small, staff friendly. Good location for walking to camden town and oxford street need to venture further if you want decent food or refreshements. great Portland underground across the road but several changes on underground to get to any of the tourist attractions.

Doug Margerum thought he was out of the restaurant business. But after the Wine Cask, the Santa Barbara restaurant and wineshop his family owned from 1981 to 2007, closed under its new owner, he wanted to bring it back-and reconnect with consumers. Margerum teamed up with restaurateur Mitchell Sjerven and is backed in part by the property's landlords. The restaurant made its name with one of the best wine lists in the country, but was also popular with local winemakers and hosted the annual Santa Barbara County futures tasting. It became a hangout/classroom for then-up-and-coming winemakers such as Jim Clendenen of Au Bon Climat and Adam Tolmach of Ojai winery.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

BodyMantra Blends
Whatever you are experiencing in your life right now, a custom blend might be just the thing for you. We have developed custom oils for numerous reasons:
A custom blend can be used on its own, or used in tandem with other blends in our line. All custom blends are designed by BodyMantra founder Kimberly Jonas.
Custom-blended oils are developed based on your personal intentions and aspects of your life for which you would like focused support. You may either email us with your thoughts or to schedule a 20-minute phone consultation with Kimberly about your custom blend.
Your initial order includes a consultation & design fee as well as the price of the blend itself. The consultation & design fee is paid at the beginning of the process. Once the blend has been designed and assembled, you will be sent a link to complete the transaction; the price range for custom blends is $35-55 for a 1 oz bottle, not including tax and shipping, to be paid prior to shipment. Re-orders of the same custom blend are billed without the consultation fee.
The inside scoop about your consultation:
Kimberly personally spends 1 1/2 - 2 hours with each custom blend to see it through to its completion. In addition to her direct contact with you to hear your goals, dreams and requests for your blend, she spends 30-45 minutes in development (selecting the oils, blending them, adding, subtracting, re-blending until the alchemy is perfect), and 45-60 minutes writing a personalized write-up about the blend that describes why each oil was selected and how it will specifically be supporting you. Lots of front-end love and care is put into your blend so that it will serve you well!
* Please note that, because Kimberly works intuitively, aligning the energies of your system with those of the oils she works with, your blend cannot be treated as a "design your own" creation for which you choose the oils. She will certainly consider any requests and always takes allergies or aversions into account.
Shipping & Returns
Shipping times vary for custom oils, as Kimberly takes careful time to attune to your needs and to allow the blend to mature. She will give you an estimated shipping date during the consultation time. Please note that custom blends cannot be returned.
Gifting A Custom Blend
Yes! We would love to support you in the creation of a custom-blended gift for someone. Kimberly prefers to work directly with the recipient of the oil, so that it is designed to match their needs and body specifically. Consider allowing us to send a beautiful gift certificate to your friend or loved one with all of the details for designing their perfect blend.

Prediction Center, as well as the guidance products produced by the National Centers (Findings 3-3a, 4-2b, and 4-3a). Global model forecasts (e.g., the Global Forecast System) improved, but their skill still lags behind some of the other leading global models (Finding 4-4).
• More reliable detection and prediction of severe weather and flooding. This was achieved, as summarized in Findings 3-3a and 4-2b.
• More cost effective NWS. As noted above, the challenges involved in assessing the value of decreased loss of life and property as a result of improved forecasts and warnings make it difficult to quantitatively assess whether a more cost effective NWS was achieved. However, estimates of the value of weather information seem to support the notion that the post-MAR NWS is indeed cost effective. The MAR significantly increased the quantity and quality of NWS products while decreasing the total number of staff.
• Higher productivity for NWS employees. This promised benefit is also difficult to assess quantitatively. With a greater number of higher quality products produced by a smaller workforce with more technical capabilities, and with a greater amount of higher quality data and information available to them, productivity of NWS employees has certainly increased (Finding 4-3a).
The initial National Implementation Plan (NWS, 1990) expanded and clarified the list of promised benefits:
• Operational realization of a predictive warning program focusing on mesoscale meteorology and hydrology. This was achieved, as summarized in Findings 3-3a and 4-2.
• Advancement of the science of meteorology and hydrology. This was achieved although there were some issues with the application of science and technology to operational hydrology (Findings 3-4 and 4-7a). While numerical weather prediction improved steadily, there are still some cases where capabilities could be improved (Finding 4-4).
• Development of NWS human resources to achieve maximum benefit from recent scientific and technical advances. The scientific and technical capabilities of the workforce increased as a result of the MAR (Findings 4-3a and 4-3c), but whether maximum benefit was achieved cannot be determined.
• User acceptance and support of NWS modernization and associated restructuring service improvement objectives. There was some initial resistance from employees (Finding 3-3b), as well as the general public and Congress in some regions, but this goal was eventually achieved.
• Strengthening cooperation with the mass media, universities, the research community and the private hydrometeorological sector to collectively fulfill the Nation's weather information needs from provision of severe weather warnings and general forecasts for the public as a whole, which is a Government responsibility; to provision of detailed and customer specific weather information, which is a private sector responsibility. This was achieved, although improvement in the relationship between the NWS and the private sector took longer. Collaborations with academia and government laboratories are beneficial, with some exceptions where the colocation is not optimal (Findings 3-5, 4-3c, and 4-5).
• Achievement of productivity gains through automation and replacement of obsolete technological systems. Observations were automated and obsolete technological systems were replaced (Findings 3-2 and 4-2a), leading to more products and new capabilities.
• Operation of the optimum NWS warning and forecast system consistent with service requirements, user acceptability, and affordability. It is not possible to assess whether the post-MAR NWS operates optimally. Operations certainly improved dramatically, and this goal, with some exceptions (e.g., the tornado and flash flood warning False Alarm Ratios remains high), was largely met.
Key Finding 1
The National Weather Service (NWS) had been unable to keep up with the pace of technological advances and had nearly become obsolete by the 1980s. Therefore the NWS was not utilizing the full potential available to provide the best possible meteorological services to the nation. The $4.5 billion national investment in the Modernization and Associated Restructuring (MAR) was both needed and generally well spent. Overall, the MAR was successful in achieving major improvements for the weather enterprise.

MORRISTOWN, Tenn (WVLT) -- A county commissioner and a constable have been indicted and face criminal charges in Hamblen County.
Hamblen County Commissioner Frank Parker and Constable Paul King both face one count of theft over $500.
Parker also faces one count of Official Misconduct.
The charges stem from a complaint by a citizen that the two men allegedly took $750 dollars to get a man's car out of the impound lot.
TBI Investigators say that was illegal because there was no fee to get the car out of the lot.
Both men were arrested today and have since posted five thousand dollars bond.

"You don't belong here," the male midshipmen might say. A few seemed to take particular glee in pulling her down as she attempted the Herndon Climb, which culminates plebe year.
Cheslack was one of 295 female plebes, a record 24 percent of the entering Class of 2016. She and her classmates arrived Thursday expecting the toughest summer of their young lives. But they spoke matter-of-factly about the increasing gender equity of the brigade. That casual acceptance felt like victory for the women of earlier classes.
"It's a good reflection on the times," said Kurtz, now a Florida attorney and a reserve captain in the Navy supply corps.
The record number, up from 19 percent last year, is a natural result of long-term efforts to diversify the brigade, said Lt. Rachel Walker, an academy admissions officer. "I don't expect that it will stop there," she said.
There seemed little distinction between the male and female plebes as they waited apprehensively outside Alumni Hall.
"Honestly, it's not a big deal in this day and age," said 2012 academy graduate Jameson Marshall, on hand to assist with induction day.
In a few hours, the plebes would all wear the same white New Balance running shoes, share the same struggles to achieve a rigid salute and hear the same barked admonitions from upperclassmen. Women would be spared the head shavings imposed on male classmates, but that seemed the only break.
"I've heard not to worry about it, because they don't treat you any differently," said Ashley Paek, a soccer player and aspiring physician from Leesburg, Va.
When she expressed interest in the academy, her dad, a postal worker, said, "Oh my God. You're a girl, you can't go."
But once Paek's parents learned that the academy charges no tuition and has a significant percentage of female students, they changed their tune.
Paek was chatting with classmate Cynthia Nestor of Silver Spring. "It's amazing," Nestor said when asked about the progress of women at the academy. "It shows how much we're doing."
"It's everywhere," Paek added. "Women are stepping up."
Nestor said she warmed to the idea of the Navy when she saw a hospital ship delivering supplies and care in Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. She seemed unconcerned about the coming rigors of plebe summer.
"At the high school where I went, everybody treated everything as a joke, and I hated it," she said. "But this is about as serious as you get."
Some troubling aspects of life remain for women at the academy.
The Department of Defense reported 22 sexual assaults there in 2010-2011, twice as many as the previous year and up from five in 2006-2007. More than 16 percent of female midshipmen said they had experienced unwanted sexual contact in a 2009-2010 survey by the Defense Manpower Data Center. Academy officials have said they're not sure if assaults are actually up or if programs that encourage reporting of offenses are simply working better.
Regardless, this year's female plebes said they would deal with similar issues at any university.

Taxpayers foot bill for GOP leaders' coffee, catering
KUSA - Members of Congress and their staffs are a hungry and thirsty bunch, and taxpayers are picking up the tab for some meals and java jolts.
The Washington Guardian, a government watchdog journalism group, obtained government reports showing Congressional office spending for the last three months of 2012. It includes eye-popping numbers for Republican leaders food and drinks, at the same time they were using tough rhetoric about cutbacks and sequestration.
"House leaders spent thousands of dollars at Harris Teeter, Whole Foods, Joe Ragan's Coffee Supplies, Dunkin' Donuts, PF Chang's, Qdoba Mexican Grill and Taylor Gourmet, just to name a few," Washington Guardian Reporter Sara Carter said.
House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) ordered $2,200 in coffee supplies during the month of November. Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) office racked up the $2,500 bill for Qdoba.
Members of Congress also spend money on water for both their Capitol Hill offices and offices in their home states. For example, the seven House members from Colorado spent $1,700 combined on water over three months. If you extrapolate that number, it could cost as much as $500,000 a year to provide bottled water, water coolers or filtration services for all 435 members of the House of Representatives.
Emails seeking comment from Speaker Boehner and Majority Whip McCarthy's offices received no response.
A check of expenditure reports for Democratic U.S. House leaders showed they often used a union caterer called CapitolHost. Their overall food and beverage expenses were significantly less than their Republican counterparts. Here's a breakdown:
Rep. John Boehner - House Speaker (R) - $11,225
Rep. Kevin McCarthy Majority Whip (R) - $9,789
Rep. Nancy Pelosi - Minority Leader (D) - $3,510
Rep. Eric Cantor -Majority Leader (R) - $2,971
Rep. Steny Hoyer - Minority Whip (D) - $1,795

Went here for a date and the overall experience was awesome. Service was great, although our waiter was a little awkward and came over to check on us too much. Food was excellent but portions were not huge. Wine was awesome and the prices were not too bad. Not the best Italian I've had in the city, but it was definitely a great place that I would go back to!
Posted by Valerie on 02/02/2009
I LOVE what the owners have done with Bistango in the past year. They transformed it into the most lovely dining experience in Murray Hill. The food was good before, but it is much more refined now. It feels like dining in a European bistro, with normal, not "American-sized" portions. The waiters are attentive, they are willing to cater to your needs / food allergies, and are overall just delightful to deal with. The host dropped by during the meal and again on our way out to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Their lunch specials are wonderful too. I can't say enough good things about this place :)
Posted by Marie E. on 01/31/2009
I went into this restaurant alone at lunchtime, and the waiter showed me 3 bad tables in a row even though there were many free tables that were fine. Finally I picked a table myself. As a woman who often eats alone, I feel this was extremely poor treatment. I had the Polo Con Mozzarella E Pruscutto, which was not very good. The salad was tasteless iceberg lettuce with underripe tomatoes. Will never go to this restaurant again.

My wife and I called about an hour before arriving - they told us to come on over. Granted there was a wait, but we sat at the bar and had some drinks and an appetizer on the house. Once seated we enjoyed the always great food and wine. On our way out we were stopped by Anthony (the owner) at the bar and had an after dinner drink on the house again! Bistango knows how to take care of their patrons. It's always the best and we'll return again and again.

I absolutely love Bistango. The food is the perfect combination of comfort and cuisine. I was bit unnerved with the renovations, but after a number of visits my confidence has been restored. Actually the food has gotten better due to a few changes to the already successful menu. Bistango also offers some of the best service in the city. The staff is both accommodating and polite. The owner is probably the kindest, most genuine man on the planet. Bistango isn't trying to be another pretentious NYC eatery. They offer beautiful food in a friendly place.

I visited Bistango after reading the great reviews re: their service, food, and their ability to cater to gluten free "diets." As a person with celiac, I never expected to find a restaurant that would make me feel at home, as opposed to a paranoid, worried, uncomfortable customer with questions galore. My boyfriend and I went to the restaurant and when I asked if they had a gluten free menu, the kind waiter said "We can make everything on the lunch menu gluten free, outside of the ravioli - and anything on the brunch menu gluten free - except the waffles. " I was in heaven already. I ordered a salad and pasta dish ($14 dollars total on the pre fixe menu). The salad was small but delicious and the pasta (eggplant, marinara, mozzarella, etc) dish was just perfect. My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed his food as well - gluten and all! The best part of the meal was when the bread came out in the beginning (usually the worst part of a celiac's meal) - They brought my boyfriend a slice of his own bread, and I got my own gluten free version - which was actually very good! They made our entire meal feel comfortable and easy. Thank you Bistango..we'll definitely be back! And the value was unbeatable!
Posted by Lyn on 08/16/2008
Was in New York on my honeymoon, only waited 13 years for it. Looking for a place to dine as needed a gluten and wheat free meal. It is very difficult to dine with this condition as you all know. Was told of the Bistango by Grand Hyatt. We booked and dined in the most wonderful place ever. Food was excellent and will go back one day. Service is extremely welcoming and relaxed. Had the best bottle of wine there too! Highly recommended for all to go and sample the delights of Bistango. To all staff well done. Thank you very much

"How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being."
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
"A loving relationship is one in which the loved one is free to be himself -- to laugh with me, but never at me; to cry with me, but never because of me; to love life, to love himself, to love being loved. Such a relationship is based upon freedom and can never grow in a jealous heart."
"I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman."
"To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all."

Private Practice Cast Previews "Powerful" Episodeby Steve Marsi at . Comments
"It's not anything that the audience can't handle." - KaDee Strickland
By "it," the beautiful and talented actress is referring to her character Charlotte's sexual assault and brutal beating in tonight's episode of ABC's Private Practice.
Covered in prosthetic cuts, scrapes and bruises, KaDee spoke to TV Guide about the story arc, which began at the end of last week's episode, "All in the Family."
Charlotte (KaDee Strickland) and Addison (Kate Walsh) in the aftermath of the attack.
It was a moment fans won't soon forget. Charlotte walked out of her office at the hospital only to encounter a deranged man whose face viewers have yet to see.
After a harsh smack, the assailant (played by Buffy alum Nicholas Brendon) shoved Charlotte back into her dark office as the episode ominously faded to black.
"The fact that she has this happen in her place of business is a very powerful statement because she has to go back to it," Strickland says of the brutal attack.
"It will never be the same thing to walk into that hospital."Charlotte's initial reaction is one of shame and denial, so much so that the once fearless leader of the hospital will not share what happened behind closed doors.
"Charlotte is so apprehensive," Strickland says, tearing up at the thought of such a plight in real life. "Charlotte is someone who absolutely lives to control things."
"In this moment and in this act of crime that happens to her, all control is lost. Out of the devastation and the shock, she just wants to act as if it didn't happen."
Just moments after the attack (as seen in this sneak preview clip) Pete discovers a bloody Charlotte in the hospital. Tim Daly assessed his character's role as well.
"Pete has a unique sensitivity to it, because right from the beginning he suspects she was raped, but chooses to completely respect her privacy on it," Daly says.
"The fact that he doesn't push her makes even her more vulnerable," he observes. "It's easier for her to push back when people are nosing into her business."
Because she's in shock, Charlotte will initially reject a rape kit.
"Addison is trying to convince her to do the right thing - the kit, the HIV test, the blood labs - these are imperative things," Kate Walsh (Addy) tells TV Guide.
"The dichotomy of that relationship changes because I need to lean into someone," Strickland says. "I feel safe and I feel that Addison would never betray me."
"The thing that I love about the character of Addison, in terms of her being a hero, is that you really see her stand in those shoes with a very new point of view because this isn't hers to do. It's mine. I'm the one living with it and I bring her into it."
Along with Addison, Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) will step up.
"In the process of tending to her injuries, she and Charlotte start developing a bond," Scorsone says, noting that Charlotte and Amelia will also "discover they have a very significant thing in common, so the bond that they form is immediately deeper."
Because Violet (Amy Brenneman) was raped in college, she will help to guide Charlotte. It "opens up a story between a survivor from a college-age and this story of an immediate victim, having to learn how to become a survivor," Strickland says.
"It's obviously not always the easiest thing to come to grips with and certainly not in the hours that pass because so much happens in that time."
Fiancé Cooper (Paul Adelstein) will take it particularly hard. "She's a very strong woman and he has a lot of trouble seeing her so compromised," says Adelstein.
"He's actively pushing Charlotte to be more present in the investigation and calling the police. He's really encouraging her to close this thing."
"I think all of the helplessness, all of the rage, all of the confusion, the element of him not having been able to prevent it, all comes into play," Strickland adds.
The small victories will come in Cooper attempting to make her smile, though she'll be the one trying to buck-up for Cooper's sake. "At one point she gets afraid that he's going to leave her because they're not back to normal," Adelstein says.
Not surprisingly, and not without consequences, Cooper will also be in the dark for several episodes before learning the true nature of her attack.

Whatever u r full of BS my friend!
Funny how ppl totally go off topic sometimes!
Greys is not living on it's hype. It is a great new show that injected some life into ABC. Yes it is not as huge and the stories have dwindled a bit BUT that happens with most shows after five seasons!!!!
Mark is not a shmuck! He has progressed in
terms of development mre than any of the other meredith aside. He was a womanizer who came to terms with his life and found someone he could give up his old ways. U clearly have something against mark type characters.
U say the others are doing fine. No they are not! Alex hasn't moved on yet. Owen went through war and
had his own PTSD. He got over that so he was able to do it again. He is stronger. Derek has moved on, but he still has healing to do, make up with Amelia and he has to be strong for met who was strong for him.
Yes christina was very affected becuz all her life she was driven to be a great surgeon. She tried to be cold hearted and have an iron heart but it turns put it isn't that way and she has to deal with stuff she never allowed herself to deal with!
To Whatever *Pats the troll* Good troll. Now run along, back to where you live under a bridge. For someone who seems to hate a show, you sure know an awful lot about it, and seem really passionate about it. :)
Private practice is attempting to explore so much depth in characters and situations...why isnt grey's doing it...the best storyline in grey's until now is christina's ptsd....and she wasnt even shot....she just had gun to her head...alex, derek, owen who were actually shot are doing fine on the show...u guys have to admit it...greys is going on just becoz of its hype.....theres nothing great about it now...once it was a hit coz of all the sex people had..but now its depressing....and people rooting for MARK N LEXIE....."why are you doing it??"...its not like they have overcome serious obstacles like der-mer ot alex-izzie...whats so great about heir love story...'I INVITE YOU GUYS TO GIVE ME AN EXAMPLE"..he's just a womanizer and she just doesnt know better....mark is a smhuck....lexie is naive...thats all there is to it....you wanna disagree, go ahead...
to maryann: That is exactly why episodes like this should air more often. Rape is a topic that people need to learnt he facts about more than they do, and some people dont even like talking about it, which is a shame because it happens to so many people who never get justice and keep it inside. Ill be watching this episode and ive never even seen the show before. Maybe ill become a new viewer.
I absolutely love this show. I love all the characters. However, to tell you the truth, when I saw the preview last week, it scared me and I had a nightmare that night and I can't get it out of my head. I don't know if I can watch tonight's episode. She is such a wonderful actress, I am not confortable with this at all.
Shonda sure knows how to create drama hey! Wow looks like we in for a great few eps... How would Naomi and Sam fit into helping Charlotte I wonder. I liked Charlotte the most when PP started. I hope we see a great ending to this story once the season is over.
