By Tom Chiarella
My girlfriend has smoked on and off for twenty years. She's not a chain-smoker -- six or seven a day. She's quit for years at a time, but found it next to impossible to quit for life. But this -- she wanted no part of this. She cringed at the thought of my taking up smoking at forty-six, and with what seemed like sophomoric relish. She worried that I was mocking her, or trying to make some point. "It's not a hat you can put on and wear around just to see how it looks," she said not long after I told her about the experiment. We were walking along a street in town. She held up the cigarette between her fingers like courtroom evidence. "This is serious stuff. And you're not taking it seriously." More than anything, she said, she was concerned for me.
I reached over and took a pack from her coat pocket, lipped out a smoke, asked for a light, and made a bad joke. A cigarette, I figured, could help me duck anything.
She grunted and wheeled on me. "Are you going to use this against me?" she said, suddenly angry. She even made a fist, with her cigarette pinched tight in it. "You can't think I like this. You can't."
"You mean me smoking?"
"No. Me smoking."
She was right, in a way. I was using the whole thing as a gag, lighting up at forced moments rather than acting like a smoker, a person who puts some thought into the time and place for a smoke. I hugged her and we lit up, standing in the half-haloed lamp of a vacant storefront. Smoker's footholds, these last unclaimed places. I wanted to feel a calm, and the cigarette granted that. I wanted it to overtake us both.
Anger at me ran deep among nonsmokers, too. My youngest son, an asthmatic, an athlete, an upstanding guy if there ever was one, pleaded with me. "You cannot do that!" he said when I told him what I was doing. "No way. You'll get addicted."
"Nah," I said. We were driving back from a gas station where I'd purchased three different kinds of Pall Malls and an orange lighter. "I'm just going in for a look. I'll be back out before you know it."
But it wounded him that I would even consider it. "It's crazy, Dad. There's nothing to try. What do you need to know about smoking? Just read a book. It's stupid." He looked out the car window; gas stations rolled by, each one, I knew, fitted with huge overhead racks of cigarettes, ranked by color, intensity, size of dose. Kingdom. Phylum. Class. Every window blared the ugly and indistinguishable price of a carton or a pack. He sighed. "You just think it looks cool."
There, with the world flipped on its head -- the son chiding the father for smoking -- I kept up the lowest frequency of argument. "Cary Grant did look cool," I mumbled. "And Sigourney Weaver, in Alien."
"Who?" he said. "Who is that? Honest to God, Dad. That doesn't sound smart."
First cigarette in a bar: a Kool, with a guy I was meeting about a job, in a basement joint in Indianapolis. When I bellied up to the bar, there was a pack in the ashtray. It was late afternoon, he was on the tequila, me, bourbon. We were two doors and one staircase from daylight. After twenty minutes, I said I wanted a smoke. "You do?" he said. "I mean, you smoke?"
"I just started."
"You just started," he said, echoing my nonchalance. He had to repeat the question, for himself: "You smoke?"
When I looked for his Kools, they were gone. He had palmed them away when I wasn't looking. "You smoke," I stated, pointing to the ashtray. "I saw your cigarettes."
He pulled them from his pocket, tilted the pack back and forth like a bell. "I just picked it back up," he said.
He put a cigarette in the corner of his mouth and pinched his eye slightly. "It's always good news to meet a fellow smoker."
I struck a match. "I'm beginning to see it's like a club."
He shook his head and blew a tunnel of smoke into the dark bar. "Yeah," he said. "Like Rotary."
He shrugged and looked at the Kool.
"And not without its charms."
I started a little game. I gave every drag a different name in my head. Every time I took out a cigarette, I tried to inhale it more deeply -- I called that the stovepipe. It tended to kill me, send me into a coughing fit. I haven't thrown up in twenty years, since I can't remember when. After that first week, my throat was a dark, wet chimney; my belly a bag of smoke; hence, stovepipe. After vomiting, I always made myself inhale at least one more time, because it was better then.
Later, when I learned to inhale successfully -- in fast and deep, out quick and smooth -- I called it a bench press. Then there was the doorknob inhale, which I did in the presence of real smokers. I'd turn my head (like a doorknob) to exhale in the other direction, because real smokers know inhaled smoke comes out cloudy and with some speed behind it, not in the tendrils of vapor I blew. The doorknob hid the fact that I hadn't hit it right. There was also the blackbird (a hard, squawking cough that came in the fourth week), the extra point (a smooth, hard draw following a meal or an argument), and the dart (a little in-out), which worked well following a workout.
I named them all. I considered it a new level of awareness.
As a person who likes his vices, I have brought down enough permanent damage for one lifetime already. I needed to know if I was, you know, killing myself. I called Mehmet Oz, the chief heart surgeon at Columbia and Esquire's health writer. The first thing he asked about was my "dosage." I told him the number I was up to. He was completely analytical, treating my no-brained experiment like a clinical study. "We should have put you on a patch to start. We should have eased you in. How do you feel now?"
"Sick," I said. "It makes me dizzy, it gives me a headache. The first drag or two is easy. After that it's different every time."

on December 19, 2011 Source: Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship
Last week, we highlighted a new piece of legislation introduced by Senators Jerry Moran (R-KS) and Mark Warner (D-VA) that pulls a number of ideas from a collection of policy reforms suggested by the Kauffman Foundation. It wasn't the only new bill aimed at reviving the sluggish economy through new and young firms. Senators Jim DeMint (R-SC) and John Barrasso (R-WYO) introduced the Startup Expansion and Investment Act, zeroing in on regulatory burdens imposed on young and growing companies by the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. The bill is based on similar legislation introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Ben Quayle (R-AZ) in September. H.R. 2941
"Dodd-Frank is only Congress's most recent attempt to solve regulatory failures by layering on even more needless and counterproductive regulation, as the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 took the same approach and has demonstrably harmed the job creation engine of our economy," said DeMint. "This legislation would allow real job growth by encouraging companies to seek capital through the markets, a proven model for success, rather than government subsidies, which companies like Solyndra have proved is a broken model and leaves taxpayers bearing the consequences."
"Our bill will chip away at the burdens faced by American businesses – particularly for new innovative companies who want to expand and create jobs. Since it mirrors recommendations put forward by the President's Council on Jobs and Competiveness, it deserves bipartisan support," said Barrasso. "For far too long, American free-enterprise has been squeezed and shackled by heavy-handed government regulations and mandates. In this troubled economy, government needs to move aside and let the job creators do what they do best – invent, invest, and grow."
The bill is currently being considered by the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs.
The Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship brings to light various policies and initiatives to advance innovation and drive economic growth.

Yesterday's fast-moving brush fire caused traffic and lives to be disrupted for hours. The Virginia Department of Forestry's fire danger rating for yesterday and today was a 3, or a high danger of fire. Though we do not have many days of low humidity, we do have winds, accompanied by the effects of drought and a lot of fuel from previous hurricanes. The fire danger rating indicates the potential for a fire to start, and how quickly the fire will spread. Many saw the effects of what could be called the perfect storm of circumstances that came together, resulting in approximately 75 acres scorched, and a large number of resources deployed to fight the fire.
Though this part of Virginia does not see many fires of this magnitude, the potential is ever-present. When I was on the job, subdivisions were earmarked that fell within the boundaries of Wildland Interface. In other words, there are subdivisions that sit in the middle of or adjacent to areas similar to yesterday's fire. Glebe Point is one of many subdivisions that come to mind. A fast moving, wind-driven fire could be devastating in these areas. As I have stated before, for those who live in Wildland Interface areas, you must do everything possible to minimize the hazards. A few suggestions would be:
These are but a few suggestions. Ultimately, you need to have a plan if a fire starts close to your home. Do you know alternate routes into and out of your subdivision? What if roads are closed that are part of your daily commute to and from work? Fires are no respecter of person, place or time.
Rain has a direct effect on the fire danger rating, though many do not realize that conditions can return to a dangerous rating in a short period of time, based upon the right conditions. Burning in designated parts of the state is only allowed from 4 p.m. to Midnight. Sometimes a burn ban is necessary on the extremely dangerous days. Many places in Chesterfield County are designated as "no burn areas." If you live in one of these areas, you cannot burn leaves at any time. Incidentally, trash cannot be burned in Chesterfield at any time. For more information about burn regulations, you can visit the county's website, www.chesterfield.gov, as well as the site for the Virginia Department of Forestry, www.dof.virginia.gov.
Most firefighters will say, "I hate a brush fire." Some love them so much that they obtained their red card, qualifying them to be deployed on major forest fires across the nation. Brush fires like yesterday's are great opportunities to exercise the Incident Command System, which is an incident management system that has been in the fire service for many years. The command post for an incident like this one consists of multiple agencies, all operating under a unity of command. Though there may be many chiefs from many different organizations, there is only one Incident Commander (IC). Tonight's rain will be a much needed sight to hopefully extinguish hot spots from yesterday's fires.

People line up to support Chick-fil-A at the store in Orland Park, Illinois, Wednesday, August 1, 2012. | Joseph P. Meier~Sun-Times Media
Updated: September 23, 2012 6:18AM
I still can't believe that in the name of love and goodness, all the shiny, happy and wholesome people waited for two hours to get their Filet of Hate sandwiches at Chick-fil-A.
Thank you, Mr. John W. Fountain, for your beautiful article about Olympic gold medalist Gabby Douglas and what's really important in life. It's such a shame in the current society that we are teaching little girls that beauty is what is important and not pride in yourself, perseverance to be your best in whatever you do, and being happy with who you are. I know those are the things I hope my daughter learns in life, and also that pretty isn't everything.
Renee from Midlothian
U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. did not have to go out of state for mental health care. Chicago has some of the best hospitals in the United States. I think he went for other reasons.
Palos Hills
In response to the high prices at ball games, with the athletes wanting more and more money, the prices will continue to go up and up until the fans stay away.
America sure is the land of the free all right, giving free-income housing, health care, schooling, jobs and Link cards to some illegal immigrants while the rest of us who lived in the United States for years can't catch a break or help.
Chicago Heights
If Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney did not file and did not pay income taxes that were due, the Internal Revenue Service would have caught up with him long ago. It is entirely different to take all the exemptions allowed by law. I certainly take advantage of the exemptions I am eligible for and if I had enough money, I would shelter it in overseas accounts. Why is everyone so envious of those who have been financially successful in life? I remember when that was everyone's goal.
Why even put out signs restricting water use? I have several neighbors who must feel like the rules do not pertain to them. On several occasions throughout this summer, these people have run their sprinklers in defiance of the clearly labeled restrictions. Most offenses were in their back yards or at night when they hope no one is watching. My gut tells me that this is not a random defiance to rules but more of a systemic philosophy on how they live their lives.
The commenter who wrote about the Second Amendment forgets that at the time of the Founding Fathers, there was no city police, state police, county sheriff's officers, let alone the FBI. In other words, we do not need militias and do not want illegal guns and ammunition sold to people who have mental diseases. This is the 21st century, not the 1700s.
Julia from Hazel Crest
Another election is upon us, but one of the most important issues is never discussed: our ongoing war and occupation in the Middle East. America is in a state of never-ending war, and we the people don't even notice. We've been conditioned to accept this situation with the belief that our troops overseas are protecting us, which is the biggest lie ever hoisted on us in history. As a nation, we are guilty of collective stupidity. But let me tell you that we all know what the Kardashians are up to.
I'm an atheist and a mother of three. A few times I have read criticism in the Speak Out against atheists. Would the paper print a derogatory remark from a Catholic about a Jew? Recently a reader from Oak Lawn wrote that he or she hopes that someday atheists would have a spiritual moment like witnessing nature or a newborn baby, as though an atheist wasn't capable of appreciating such things. This is insulting. I would never say I hope a religious person someday has a moment of intelligence. We need to treat each other with respect.
Orland Park
The Illinois government is working on pension reform. Does that mean that they are going to start giving up some of their pension, seeing as some of them are getting two or three pensions? Are they going to start with themselves, who get oodles of money, rather than us who sometimes only get $300 per month? I guess I'm just dreaming.
President Obama's rest and relaxation is over with. He has a new R and R to contend with. That is Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his running mate Paul Ryan.
Phil Kadner, you're right that vandalizing Hassan M. Abdallah's grave is a hate crime. Someone had hate in their heart for him and his family. That's unacceptable. As a veteran and with my son in the military, I wonder if Fort Hood was workplace violence or domestic terrorism. How about 9/11 when some cheered when the Twin Towers fell? Was that hate? I'm sure you won't touch that. Then you wouldn't be a Robin Hood column writer. What's in your heart? Why not do an article sticking up for our brave military who died at Fort Hood? Show 'em respect.
Oak Forest
To the person who wrote about Jesus not saying anything about two men shacking up: It amazes me how people make remarks about the Bible and have not even read it, or have only read parts of it, or pick out what they like and leave out the parts they don't like. So many people call themselves Christians and don't even know what the Bible says. I can call myself a great baseball player, but that doesn't mean I am one. Read it and then make a decision.
Tinley Park
With summer winding down, try to get outside as much as you can.

Take Your Runs into Overdrive
A New Android: Netrunner Draft Pool Is Now Available |
Android: Netrunner Draft Play | Published 14 May 2014 |
"The closer I got to the source code, the more everything changed."
–Nasir Meidan
It's time to take your runs into Overdrive. Overdrive Draft Starters, Corp Draft Packs, and Runner Draft Packs for Android: Netrunner Draft Play are now available via FFG's in-house manufacturing!
Overdrive is the second pool of cards for Android: Netrunner Draft Play, consisting of 194 randomized cards collated from across the whole network of Android: Netrunner products. These include the game's Core Set, its first two deluxe expansions, and its first three cycles of Data Packs, including no fewer than forty-three cards drawn from the Lunar Cycle, which you'll be able to add to your rig or HQ before they're even released in Data Packs!
In addition to providing fans some sneak peeks at upcoming cards from the Lunar Cycle, Overdrive introduces new draft play challenges for both Corps and Runners. Players who have already enjoyed draft play with Cyber War will recognize some fundamental shifts in how they'll want to compile their server defenses, economic drivers, and icebreaker suites.
More Than One Way to Run a Server
In Overdrive, many of the draft strategies that worked in Cyber War get turned on their heads. The steady economies that were funded by PAD Campaigns and Armitage Codebusting are defunded, and players will have to find ways to build upon the temporary economic boosts provided by Hedge Funds and Sure Gambles.
However, even as Corps and Runners look for new ways to fund their efforts, they have other choices to consider. In Cyber War, many of the decisions that players face during their drafts are whether it's better to select a key piece of ice or icebreaker, or whether they should use their draft pick to support their economic development. In Overdrive, players face entirely new layers of choices.
These changes mean that the Overdrive draft pool presents Android: Netrunner players with more than a new set of cards than those they found in Cyber War, it presents an entirely new set of challenges, tactics, and strategies.
For more about how Overdrive Draft Starters and Draft Packs allow players to participate in an alternative and exciting draft play format for Android: Netrunner, visit our Android: Netrunner Draft Play description page.
What Do I Need to Play?
Each player participating in an Overdrive draft will need to bring three items: a sixteen-card Draft starter and two forty-card Draft Packs, one each for Corp and Runner. Alternatively, groups with even numbers may split so that half the players draft only Corp cards while the other half drafts only Runner cards. In such drafts, each player only needs the Overdrive Draft Starter and a single Draft Booster.
The Overdrive Draft Starter is a fixed collection of rules and thirteen utilitarian cards that include a draft-only Corporate identity, The Shadow, and a draft-only Runner identity, The Masque.
These "Draft format only" identities are not legal in standard play.
Apart from the identities, these cards are all different from those that appear in the Cyber War Draft Starter. Their agendas, icebreakers, and economy cards introduce an array of unique abilities that ensure games with the Overdrive draft pool enjoy a distinctive feel, and all Draft Starter cards are clearly distinguished from both the larger Android: Netrunner card pool and the cards in the Overdrive Draft Packs, allowing you to collect them after your games and prepare for your next draft. Because these Draft Starters are reusable, you only need one, no matter how many Overdrive drafts you play!
All draft cards are clearly identified by a new icon, and starter pack cards are further distinguished from draft cards by color.
Randomized Overdrive Draft Packs for Corp and Runner are compiled according to a custom algorithm from a card pool of 194 cards called Overdrive.
To learn more about how Overdrive Draft Packs are created, visit the Android: Netrunner Draft Play description page.
All cards found in Overdrive draft products, except for those marked "draft format only," are legal in standard tournament play as soon as they are tournament legal and released within the standard LCG format. Accordingly, each card from the Lunar Cycle will become legal for tournament play once the LCG Data Packs in which it is contained goes on sale at retailers. However, because of variations in production color and card-stock resulting from our in-house manufacturing, players using draft cards in tournaments must sleeve their cards with opaque or art sleeves.
Push Your Processor into Overdrive
How quickly can you process the myriad challenges of Android: Netrunner Draft Play? Compile your cards, advance your agendas, and launch your runs in the exciting Overdrive draft pool for Android: Netrunner The Card Game!
Pick up your Overdrive Draft Starter, Corp Draft Pack, and Runner Draft Pack today!
Note: Android: Netrunner draft products do not serve as a replacement for the standard Android: Netrunner LCG® model. Instead, Android: Netrunner draft products allow players to enjoy the game through an additional format of play. Orders for products printed via FFG's in-house manufacturing may take 10 – 14 days to ship.
How fast can you go from zero to zetabytes? Android: Netrunner Draft Play is an exciting, alternate play format for Android: Netrunner that introduces a unique set of challenges as players build decks from cards that they select one at a time from a limited number, without full knowledge of the available card pool.

I was given some Bulbils at a seed exchange yesterday and am now trying to figure out the best way to proceed.I know garlic is usually planted in the fall, but since it is already Februrary: 1. Should I wait to plant them in the Spring or should I start them indoors? I am wondering about starting them indoors because some are already sprouting and perhaps it would give them a head start since the growing season is so short here. My concern with planting them indoors however, is that they might get too disturbed when I transplant them outside. 2.If indoors, how long before last frost should I start them? Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

Garlic is a perennial plant. It can be started and grown any time of the year, though some times may not be the best to start. I would recommend starting indoors then transplanting outdoors after last frost or, you can keep the bulbils and start them outside after last frost, if you want to, even though garlic does not suffer from shock as much as other plants. They will still grow. Garlic takes about 8 months to mature, so be patient. |
- Posted by watermelon7 9 (My Page) on Sun, Feb 1, 09 at 21:00
Or, you can start your garlic plant inside in a small pot, and keep it in the pot to mature as a house plant. The greens are eatable, too. |
- Posted by calendulamoon (My Page) on Sun, Mar 1, 09 at 10:08
Thank you! I will start them inside now and plant some out and keep others as a house plant. |

Clifford Smith is onto something in his March letter ("R.I. will not try new policies for growth"), about the correlation of Rhode Island voting patterns for Democrats and our poor level of our economic health.
But instead of thinking voting for Republicans is our only option — which won't happen in Rhode Island — let's have The Journal thoroughly educate readers about the issues and voting patterns of our legislators and then let's have primaries for every seat.
The rubber stampers for the speaker could then be outed and progress, ethics, and renewal could flourish in Rhode Island, improving every aspect of our lives.

Trial Begins For Marissa Devault In Hammer Killing
HLN NEWS: An Arizona woman is facing murder charges after her husband was found beaten to death with a hammer in their bed.
The trial of Marissa Devault is getting underway this week in Maricopa County Superior Court, and many are drawing comparisons to the Jodi Arias trial.
Like Arias, Devault faces the death penalty if she's convicted.
Her husband Dale Harrell was brutally attacked with a hammer in January 2009. He suffered severe injuries to the skull and died a month later in a hospice. Originally, Devault told police that someone else attacked her husband, but when police challenged her story, Devault claimed she killed him in a rage after years of alleged abuse at his hands.
Because of similarities between this case and that of convicted killer Jodi Arias, the judge has reportedly warned prospective jurors that he does not want Arias trial watchers on the panel.
Arizona attorney Monica Lindstrom says she expects the prosecution to put forward evidence of Devault dating another man in the months before the killing. There are also reports that prosecutors may present evidence that Devault tried to hire a hit man as well.
Jury selection in the case began last week, and opening statements are anticipated to start the first week of February. Attorneys expect the trial to end sometime in April

Location: Bozeman, Montana.
More specific location: Bozeman Brewery in Bozeman, Montana. Where a mom is drinking beer and helping her kid with his homework.
I guess technically today could be called an "r and r day". I was able to chill at Casa Dawkins (cara's home) and just catch up on life. Sent emails, made calls ( still no progress with scheduling that 2nd interview), and worked on some of my videos and photos over the past few days. A much needed morning of calm.
Then I made my way to downtown where I met Cara for lunch at the John Bozeman Bistro. Delicious lunch. Explored a bit of Main Street, totally charming, and I may have bought myself and Lucy some Western shirts. (mom, be on the look out for the cutest lil girl shirt in the mail).
After some wandering, I headed to The Museum of the Rockies. My GPS had a good time sending me all over Montana State University's campus. Arrived to the museum and was impressed. The had a great photography exhibit of musicians. I followed a dad and son around and the dad stopped at every photo and explained in full detail who the Artist was and why they were important to Rock history. At the Jimmy Hendrix photo he goes "son, this is who you need to inspire to be". Pretty sure we could work on a better role model, but whatevs.
I even caught a Planetarium show on the stars. Which I needed yesterday on my way home from Yellowstone because holy shit was the sky full of glorious stars!
Left the museum and (this is lame) hit up Wal Mart so I could buy some Moose Drool beer to take home to PA. Hope I don't drink it before then.
And now... I am sitting in the small, local, hip tasting room of the Bozeman Brewery, where a flight of local brews only cost me $4.50!!!!!
Tonight I am having dinner with my "host" family at Ted's Montana Grill. Where I will try not to squeeze and smush Cara's lil girls because they are SO CRAZY CUTE!
Montana (like the rest of my stops so far) has been fantastic! Maybe... Pam101 should stay in the "West"!
ps- I wore my cowgirl boots all day, I am in love.

RE 6 not coming to the Wii U – for now
Resident Evil 6 was originally slated for a November 20th release but today has been changed to October 2nd. With that there is not plans "at this time" to release RE 6 on the Wii U.
"Unfortunately, RE6 will not be available at this time on the Wii U," Kobayashi told us. "Right now we're concentrating on the PlayStation 3 version, 360 version and the PC version of the game."

Capture the discussion as you go along.
Many meetings take place to explore issues or solve problems, and many of these meetings are successful.
However some meetings can grow complex and disorganized, and are frustrating to attend. There are so many perspectives, so many competing voices – and so many ways to get off track. The original problem or question often gets lost in the discussion. Valuable contributions are ignored. And after a decision is made, it's often hard to remember the sequence of thoughts that led to it.
We run into this difficulty because problem solving is often not a linear process. As our thoughts and ideas jump all over the place, so does the conversation. Some individuals may "grandstand" on favorite topics, others may wander onto less relevant (but more interesting) subjects, and the conversation can seem to go around and around – until you either forget where you started, or get so frustrated that you just stay with things as they are because it's easier.
So how can you combat this frustration and keep communication in meetings on track in the situations? Consider using a simple and effective technique called Dialogue Mapping.
Consider the following dialogue among four colleagues in a meeting:

By David Vann
Now shes wondering even more. She writes him an anonymous e-mail: What does a girl have to do to get your attention? Steve jokes at first. He tells her that he has a girlfriend. Yet they keep writing e-mails. Eventually Steve puts the pieces together -- figures out its Jessica. And soon Steve breaks up with Deyana.
Their first date is at a local DeKalb bar for a drink. Steven told me how pretty I was and he made me laugh, says Jessica. After a few drinks, we walked to a twenty-four-hour diner. We laughed as we stumbled down the street to the restaurant. It was so easy to talk to him, and there was no tension or pretending to be someone else.
Steve wraps his arms around her, and its like the rest of the world doesnt matter anymore. Their own little island.
They graduate together in May 2006 and make plans to attend NIU for graduate school in the fall. And then the impossible happens -- more impossible than being off meds for five years straight. More impossible than finding an amazing girlfriend.
Steve wins a Deans Award. It is the highest honor given to undergraduates.
I only got it because of everything Jim has done and said for me, he tells Jessica, but she knows hes proud.
The unwinding starts slow. His mothers death. A battle with ALS, Lou Gehrigs disease, a battle he didnt see much of. She dies in September 2006. He hasnt been close to her in years. Thinks she hated him, was afraid of him. So he hated her, and now this. No time to make anything up.
He doesnt show emotion or tell people about his mothers death. He doesnt take time off school and wont let Jessica go to the wake, but he calls her and tells her he wishes she was here.
Then more change. Hes just started grad classes, and now it looks like he isnt going to be able to stay at NIU. The university has cut half the faculty from its sociology department through attrition, stripped the advanced courses, especially in criminology. Jim writes a recommendation letter, and Steve and Jessica apply to the grad program in social work at the University of Illinois, three hours south in Champaign. A smart move academically, a necessary move. But Steve hates the idea of having to move to a new place, having to make new friends.
Things are falling apart with Jessica, too. Messy breakups for everyone to see. On again. Off again. The most recent one, she came teary-eyed to class, embarrassing him. Its his fault, but he doesnt want everyone to see.
Hes also freaking out about jobs now. His future. He mastered college, but what next? He bombed the LSAT in the fall, taking it too soon after his mothers death. So law school is out. And social work, or becoming a corrections officer? Theyre Jims influence, the influence of a good teacher. Is that enough? Does he really want to spend his whole life in that field? Maybe he should focus on political science or public administration. But really, he has no idea.
He stops going to his grad classes at NIU. He doesnt need them anyway, since his course work wont transfer to U. of I. He gets interested in buying guns. He applies for his firearms permit in December and receives it in January. Hes been out of the mental-health system for five years now, so hes eligible. (In the fall hell write a paper titled (No) Crazies with Guns! questioning whether people on antipsychotics should be allowed to buy firearms.) In February he buys a Glock .45-caliber handgun, a powerful weapon. He buys a shotgun and another handgun the next month. Goes to the shooting range instead of school. Hell get Fs in his classes, but doesnt seem to care.
Then Seung-Hui Cho kills thirty-two at Virginia Tech. April 16, 2007. Steves excited. Hes firing off e-mails. Crazy, he tells Jessica, and sends her Chos writings. Hes all over this with Kevin, studying everything. The writings, where Cho bought his guns, his mental-health history, the photos, the planning, the timing, even his favorite songs.
I think it was mostly a sociological interest, Kevin says. He was interested in what was going on in the mind of Cho, and why it was so successful, and how someone could do it, how they could pull it off. Steve tells Kevin that Cho obviously planned it out well, and he mentions chaining the doors. Creating chaos. All the careful planning, like Columbine.
He and Jessica move to Champaign in June, rent an apartment together. Separate bedrooms. Theyre not a couple anymore. Relationships just dont work out for him. And renting an apartment with her is probably a bad idea, but it saves on rent, they can share books, and shes his closest friend.
Hes falling apart, though. He knows it, and Jessica knows it. He checks five times to make sure the car is locked, three times for the apartment door, checks the stove. He and Jessica drive somewhere, but he has to turn around, drive back to check again that the door is locked. He washes his hands twenty times a day, has to wash the remote for the TV if anyone else touches it, has to wash if Jessicas cat touches him, hates all the hair everywhere. He cant sleep, gets up to check again that hes paid all his bills, checks the alarm clock three times. Hes anxious and worried about everything, paranoid. He doesnt feel safe. He misses his friends at NIU, misses Jims office, misses the sociology lab. He has these mood swings, totally out of control, and he gets really irritable, picks fights with Jessica.
You have to see someone, she tells him. You need a mood stabilizer.
August 3, 2007, he makes an appointment for himself at McKinley Health Center on campus at U. of I. The social worker notes that Steve is very worried about confidentiality. Doesnt want this on his record. Steve doesnt mention the mood swings. Or the suicide attempts. He doesnt tell them much of anything. He says hes interested in medications, worried about weight gain. She makes him an appointment with a psychiatrist three days later.
That same day he decides to buy guns. Perhaps its just a whim. Or maybe hes concerned that his visit to the hospital will go on his mental-health record and his gun license will be revoked. He drives to Tonys Guns & Ammo, which is just Tonys house. Steve trades in his Glock .45 caliber, his .22-caliber pistol, and his 20-gauge shotgun. He buys a Sig Sauer .380.
He debates returning to McKinley. He doesnt want to go, but he really is falling apart. He knows this. So he goes.
Steve shows elements of both social anxiety and obsessive/compulsive disorder, records the doctor who sees him. The working diagnosis is Obsessive/Compulsive Disorder with the DSM-IV code 300.3. My plan is to start Prozac 10 mg each morning with breakfast.
The first time hes been on Prozac in six and a half years.
But its still not enough. As hes sitting in one of his classes at U. of I., his heart starts beating fast and hard. Its like a fist in there, balled up. He looks around, but no one seems to notice. Hes short of breath, getting dizzy, disoriented. Hes going to pass out, right here in front of everyone. He holds on to the desk, though, gets through the moment, gets out of there.
A month later hes back at McKinley, September 4, says his mothers death was a traumatic experience, still is. The doctor notes it in his evaluation. Steve worries, also, about his father, who has diabetes and hypertension and recently had a stroke. Hes anxious all the time in this new place, feels judged, worries what people think of him. Hes hiding all the time, still doing well in his schoolwork, so no one would suspect. Hes good at hiding. The doctor asks him whether hes planning to kill himself or anyone else. He says no. They up his Prozac to 50 milligrams a day and add Xanax, 0.5 milligrams a couple times a day as needed for anxiety.
Around this time, he calls his sister, Susan. Their relationship has always been rough. She resented all the attention he sucked in high school, and he resented how perfect she seemed. But today hes feeling okay, he wants to talk. He tells her that he thinks he might be gay.
They go to dinner, a chance to talk and reconcile. But Susan thinks hes being paranoid, because he wont use his credit card. They could steal the number. And just like that, hes back to hating her. Susans just like his mother -- only sees him as a fuckup, he thinks.

VIBE & RapGenius Present: 5 Most Lyrical Songs From Meek Mill's 'Dreamchasers 3'
4. "Money Ain't No Issue"
This song is worth a listen for the harpsichord. Yes, this is the first trap harpsichord, or what shall be known from this point as trapsichord. The song never quite tops its intro, where Mill brags that he's "sending G4 pilots to the Wing Stop." (MMG boss, Rick Ross owns a few Wing Stop franchises, so this is some brand synergy). Future and Fabolous are welcome additions, since Future's voice couples all too well with the trapischord and Fab provides one of the best punchlines: "Shorty sound like Big Sean, bitch keep saying 'oh gawd!'"

Wow Keith, you've made it past that first step. Sadly, I can seem to do that. :)
It has taken me years to admit it but...
Hello, my name is Keith and I master records. It started small and harmless with the random I can burn you a CD. Then the occasional sure I can tweak that a little. The next thing you know there are codes and UPC's. Still I wouldn't admit it. Even when I mastered a CD that was nominated for a Grammy I said it was just a fluke. I was when I had two mastering projects at once I realized I had a problem. I am now working through my addiction to resolution. I am glad this group is here.

The mission of Second Chance Boxer Rescue (SCBR) is to rescue, rehab, and re-home dogs throughout Florida, (specifically boxers) that would be otherwise euthanized.About Our Rescue Group:
Second Chance is not a second chance for dogs, because that would presume they had a first chance and failed. The majority of the dogs we rescue never had any chances, first, second, or otherwise. The name of our rescue refers to giving humans a second chance to provide a safe, healthy, and loving home and environment for our dogs, since most of these dogs come to us after they have been abused or neglected by their owners.SCBR solely relies on volunteers to get the work done and no one receives compensation for their work. SCBR receives no funding from the government or the United Way. Our adoption fees and donations from other dog lovers cover our costs.

Elise Neal
Video vixen turned actress Elise Neal is a true Hollywood come-up story.
[Story] Adell Henderson
Hollywood casting agents need to man up. Whether male or female, those making big-screen role selections clearly ignore the gorgeous breeding ground of hip-hop videos. Save for, say, Meagan Good, Rap City's eye candy rarely gets beyond T&A typecasting (see "sexy stewardess,†"stripper girlfriendâ€). Future Buffies with bodies should see Elise Neal. A trailblazer for dancer-turned-actress hopefuls, the 15-year veteran has made the leap from the worlds of Hype Williams to Robin Williams.
Since her days of sexing up Yo! MTV Raps (YouTube her in Chubb Rock's "Just the Two of Usâ€), the Memphis, Tennessee, native has made many film (Paid In Full, Hustle & Flow) and television (All of Us, The Hughleys) appearances. Next, she's starring alongside Anthony Anderson in Fox's New Orleans police drama K-Ville, short for "Katrinaville.†But with ties to both Curtis Jackson and a certain fellatio goddess, Ms. Neal just can't leave the video game alone.
KING Although this is your fourth KING shoot, it's your first cover. Consider this your coronation.
ELISE I'm happy to be in the Hollywood issue. I love seeing the theatrics that can come from a shoot. That's what makes it exciting for me. But this wasn't an easy shoot. I'm playing the victim, the one that people are trying to kill. And those ropes, the duct tape and being tied up was a lot. I was in pain a couple of times for real.
Wait, video chicks are supposed to be good dancers? Could've fooled us. Well, you certainly played the "tied-up†role like a pro. Almost like you've done it before…
What are you trying to say? I didn't suggest duct tape. I didn't suggest rope, especially unfinished rope. That would be you guys [laughs].
So that was acting, not just another Friday night?
I was really acting. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it [laughs]. I've never been duct-taped [in bed]; I will say that.
You were one of the first to break the "video chick†curse by establishing a credible acting career. That's like seeing Sasquatch.
The journey was weird for me because I didn't want to act. I wanted to sing, dance and be on stage. I wanted to be on Broadway. When I got started, the '90s was a big period in hip-hop and R&B, and a lot of the choreographers that I worked with were doing music videos as well as musical-theater jobs. That's how I got into videos.
Wait, video chicks are supposed to be good dancers? Could've fooled us.
Don't get it twisted. I was the go-to video chick for a while. I was in everything from Father MC to Black Sheep videos back in the day, and I'm very proud of it. But once I decided to make acting my career, I pretty much cut the videos off.
Last year, art almost imitated life when you were in talks to portray another famed clip vixen, Karrine Steffans, in a full-length feature.
Is that still going down?
Everybody has been asking me about it, and we're sort of at a standstill. I just want it to be something that she has a lot of control over, which is difficult sometimes in making movies. But I would still do it if it came together in the right way.

By LARRY VAUGHT
If new Kentucky offensive coordinator Neal Brown is right, it won't take long for quarterbacks to learn his system.
"It's really a simple system. The first three days of spring practice we'll install the whole system. It's a system that the quarterbacks will be able to learn in a two to three week period while I'm gone recruiting. They can watch some videos and really have a good idea of what we want to do when I get back," said Brown Tuesday.,
Three days and have the whole system in? What a refreshing thought to hear a coach say it doesn't take months and months to learn an offense. Remember how in recent years UK's offense has been "limited" because coaches said they could not install the whole offense. With Brown, he says that will be no problem — and he's had one of the nation's more productive offenses at Texas Tech.
He played under Hal Mumme at Kentucky and coached under Tony Franklin at Troy. Brown knows the "Air Raid" offense — and is all for bringing the sirens back to Commonwealth Stadium he said if that helps produce touchdowns — and says long-time UK fans who watched Mumme's teams will see familiar plays.
"The base plays that you're going to see on Saturday afternoons, when coach Mumme was here, those base plays are the same. Those base plays are really the same that you're seeing at West Virginia be highly successful. They're the same plays we used at Texas Tech. Oklahoma State's using those same plays. Oklahoma's using those same plays," Brown said. "Those same base plays really haven't changed since 1997 when coach Mumme brought those to really big-time college football.
"Now what we've done is, is we've made a stronger – I guess we've made a more concerted effort to run the football is the best way to put that. We're playing at a faster pace, and we dress those plays up with motions, with different formations. Those are the things that the fans are going to notice."
Brown calls it a "good problem" to have three sophomore quarterbacks — Maxwell Smith, Jalen Whitlow and Patrick Towles.
"It's a good situation. We've got three guys that can play quarterback in the Southeastern Conference. How we're going to handle that is, it's going to be an open competition. I met with those guys, I guess it was Monday of last week, and all three guys (are) good people, very interesting guys, excited about a fresh start," Brown said. "And it's going to be a fresh start, not only for them, but for all the guys on our whole football team. I'm only controlling the offense, but it's a fresh start. The way we're going to handle it, it's going to be an open competition. All three guys will split the reps a third in spring practice, carry that competition through the summer into fall camp and see who the best man is."
He doesn't want to prejudge anyone, including his receivers.
"Really been focused more on the recruiting end than the current personnel. During this dead period in recruiting, I'll probably start peeking at those guys (receivers)," he said. "I think you've got to be careful of not watching too much, because it's a different system. You don't know what the players, where they were at that point in their career and all those type of things, injuries. I'll peek at them just to have an idea, but I'm not going to get carried away watching a whole lot of the last couple years."

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Che Che!
Facts about Che Che
- Breed: Shar Pei
- Color: Black
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Che Che's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Che-Che, a 6 year old spayed female Shar Pei, is such a beautiful lady. She is friendly to everyone and just wants to find a place to call home. She, and her other Shar Pei buddy, Jude, were surrendered by their owners -- their owners were military and were transferred to a new base that would not allow them to keep their dogs. Jude has now found his home, and now Che Che waits for her new family.
Like most Shar Pei, Che Che can be a little shy at first, but once she knows you, she is a loving, dedicated companion. She likes to go for walks and loves car rides. But mostly she just likes to be around her person.
Are you Che Che's person? If you would like a mellow friend to hang out with, please complete an adoption application at our website, www.peisandstrays.com

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Che Che, a Newport Shar Pei dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Shar Pei for sale in Newport, or seeking a Shar Pei dog from a breeder in Newport.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Newport already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Newport breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Shar Pei breeders who help with Shar Pei rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Newport paves the way for another one to be saved.
