We have received what appears to be credible evidence that a grower here in the U.S. has produced not just one, but two HPLC test results that if confirmed, would surpass the Butch T as the Hottest Chili Pepper in the world!
A link to our initial report is provided below. This is not an official claim by the propagator of the specimens. It is an article we wrote based on documentation that we were given exclusive access to. We will provide more facts as they are confirmed by the University that produced the document. Stay tuned! Thank you,

Follow-Up Postings:
Interesting, but it would be nice to see some corroboration. If true we have got to be approaching the limits of heat that a pepper can actually produce. |
We anticipate being able to post a copy of the test results very soon. We've chosen to honor the wishes of the grower and hold off until they verify that all the proper procedures were followed and the results are accurate. Can't blame them though, it would look pretty bad if they made such a bold claim that didn't have multiple pieces of evidence to back it up. |

"the mature red specimen tested at more than double the SHU's the Butch T needed to gain it's title". DOUBLE??? That is taking hot to a whole new level. But, it seems every year there are claims such as this that never pan out. A lot of times it is just a ruse to sell some U/I seeds. There were no specifics mentioned in the article. No variety named, the test site was only listed as an American university. Again, no specific name. No hard Scoville numbers. |

It will be interesting to find out if this is true or not. So this pepper is double the Butch T so about 2.92 Million Scoville which is above the amount found in pepper spray which can be up to 2 million SV. Maybe true maybe advertising ruse, or a pepper sprayed pepper lol. All kidding aside I hope there is a results follow up and not some random post that dies never to be updated. Time will tell I guess. That's my 2 cents..... |

Another unstable hybrid? Useless if so , since chances are you can't re grow it. There is a UTUBE video going around where some guy claims his Hybrid is hotter than Butch T. Butch T has been around since 2005 or 2006 when butch sent me and tons of others seeds for it,it is a stable strain. It seems to me they should have to prove a plants stability to get world record status,otherwise like several other peppers, it's just a flash in the pan. |
i find it VERY hard to believe that it legitimately tested at double the butch t... also agree with smokemaster (got the seed yesterday-thanks) that it's likely to go the way of the naga viper... smoke- what's the difference between the butch and what folks currently call the jonah? |
Hold on, not double the total SHU. This is what it says: "the mature red specimen tested at more than double the SHU's the Butch T needed to gain it's title." What I meant is that the Butch T set the record by around 80,000 SHU's. This one scored more than twice that number higher. I apologize for the confusion. As far as the hybrid "thing", don't look so far into it. All that's been stated so far is that a higher number has been produced. They are not claiming to have created a new species. |
Okay yeah, that wording is very misleading. Needs an asterix or something to specify that its as much hotter than a Butch T as the Butch T is to the Bhut Jolokia. |
- Posted by habjolokia none (email@example.com) on Wed, Nov 23, 11 at 8:03
Which pepper are you comparing to? If the Bhut Jolokia then the Buch T beat it by 460,000 Scoville units. Let's just wait for the facts. |
Ahhh..... commence the parsing...... |

I don't see the use of Trinidad Scorpion Jonah much anymore but see a lot of 7 Pot jonah versions out there. The story I was told is that the Butch T is just the name they gave the T.S. Jonah after they grew it out and tested it. I don't know how long the guys in Australia grew them out or if they got crossed along the way. At least thats what I read... I've had some Douglahs that I think might be equally as hot from time to time. Most of the stuff won't grow true or be consistant in any way like the original cross was. Once it's stable they re name it and call it a new strain or variety.It's not considered a hybrid anymore. |

Smokemaster, is this the chart you're talking about? For anyone interested, the chart was taken from the website referenced below. The author uses Tomato genes to illustrate crossing but it applies to peppers, etc. etc. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Crosses explained
i agree that the douglah's may very well be as hot- they are nasty hot (and taste like poo imo). i grew 4 isolated varieties each of the last 2 years and am upping it to a dozen or so next year. |

Being the science nerd that I am, I had to check the math. It's good. The thing to remember is that as the frequency of the undesireable genes becomes increasingly smaller, it becomes increasingly difficult to remove it from the population. So, if you want to maintain your reputation as a seed producer, you probably want to go out even further than the 14th generation. This is probably why you see most new strains coming out of areas that have multiple growing seasons each year. |

Thats the chart I was talking about,Thanks. People I don't think realize what it takes to develope a new true variety of pepper or just grow seeds out to insure that they have pure seeds to begin with. But that 50 cents and up per seed keeps them selling the seeds anyway. |
I've noticed...especially in the pepper/heat market...that people are NOT taking their seed lines far enough before they announce they have the "next big thing." It's nice to have a hybrid, but how about making it stable first? Peppers are prolific inbreeders and you should only need to outbreed once for hybridization (unless you're doing something really tricky). A little reverse/crossbreeding may be necessary to clean the genetics up, but rarely with peppers/toms/etc. Rushing something you can't replicate the following season with a stable seed supply is sloppy, imo. It only takes 1-2 additional grow-outs/seasons/etc. to mostly stabilize your seed line...and you should go 5-7 to maintain stability. ...and you're going to proclaim you have a hybrid...at least make sure it's a legit/stable hybrid rather than a mix of genetics that you have to grow 10 plants in order to get the 5-ish plants you want. |
OttawaPepper: That link to "crosses explained" was extremely informative and easy to understand. It's saved in my favourites now, thanks for posting the link. |
quoting smokemaster:"I see seed vendors,especially for super hots giving all kinds of excuses about why their seeds are not growing what was advertised. It's never their fault.... They don't grow the varieties out and really have no clue as to their seed source being stable or pure for that matter. Most grow a seed out 1 season and if it looks cool they sell it.Isolating a hybrid only 1 season might grow a similar plant but it's seeds probably won't. But that 50 cents and up per seed keeps them selling the seeds anyway. gee, i wonder who you could be talking about... you left out the part about getting really defensive when they make their excuses... :) |

You mean the guy who was begging for seeds everywhere only a couple seasons ago and is now an expert? LOL There are a couple around like that but I think we both are talking about the same person. LOL If ya can't dazzle them with Brilliance,Baffle them with B.S. |
got to be the new hottest 'cause it says so on ebay... and it can be yours for only $60/oz!!! |

After you grow peppers as hot as any of those you discussed, what do you do with them? Is it like climbing a mountain simply for the sake of saying you got to the top? The chocolates I grew this year all went into a sauce mixed with tomatoes and molasses and it's still hot enough to blow your head off. John A |
John - It becomes a tolerance issue. First time I had a sauce made with Bhut peppers I was in pain for almost half an hour. I have since figured out how to make the sauce (as hot or hotter than the original) and eat it regularly with little to no pain. Once you get beyond the pain (and I understand some can't) you can start to enjoy some of the interesting flavors underneath. |
- Posted by fusion_power 7b (My Page) on Fri, Dec 2, 11 at 14:46
I personally am not about to eat one of the superhots, yet I grow one or more of them every year. I've grown Douglah's, Scorpions, 7-pots, Bhut's, Red Savina, and 2 or 3 more. After a certain amount of heat, they are just too much for me. I love to make sauces and soups and such with them. 1/4 of a really hot pepper is enough to make a gallon of chili fireball hot. My personal favorite eating pepper is Chapeau de Frade which is decently hot and has superb flavor but won't send me to the hospital. The link above for crossing and segregation is Keith Mueller's website. The chart presumes you are making single seed selections and that all further crosspollination is prevented. You would grow one or more F1 plants and save seed. There is no selection at all from the F1 plants because you want the maximum amount of segregation in the offspring. Then you would grow the F2 plants and begin selecting based on plant and fruit traits and save seed ONLY from the plants that meet the desired traits. Then you would grow F3 plants and continue the selection process. The devil is in the details though, if you consider a single seed, then it will fit the chart above. But when you consider the entire population of plants grown out in a Filial generation, you could see every gene expressed that existed in the original cross. By the F7, if you have done the selection work properly and if you prevented further crossing, then you can have a highly homozygous line that breeds true for most if not all traits. The background mutation rate then becomes significant enough that it begins to influence the level of homozygousity. Typically, each new plant grown from seed will have 2 or 3 new mutations that were not present in the parent. The vast majority of these mutations are harmless and undetectable but once in a while one will show up that changes a significant plant trait. So the gist of this means that once you get to the F7, you are going to have about as stable a line as it is possible to achieve. Beyond that point, you are not going to achieve much because of the way the genetics work. That doesn't mean you stop growing them or that the breeding and selection work is done, it just means that the line is stable for all practical purposes. If you are a serious plant breeder, the F7 generation is where the really serious work begins. Grow out a large number of F7 plants. Then carefully go through each and every plant with a detailed list of traits that should be met. Rogue out all plants that do NOT meet the standard. Each generation thereafter has to do this same level of detailed selection to maintain the original line. From the above, for generations F1 to F7, you are figuring out which selections to INCLUDE in the population. Once you reach F7, you are figuring out what to EXCLUDE and therefore must be removed from the breeding line. DarJones |
Thanks for your explanation, Dar. That's one of the most understandable I've seen. Obviously, I am not a serious plant breeder and have never isolated any of my plants. My Trinidad Scorpion Morougas are a perfect example this year. This is the 3rd year I've grown them and saved seed, and to my surprise, they were yellow and not nearly as hot as in previous years. Likewise, I was up to F8 with my Brandy Boy tomatoes, and ready to declare victory. This year they reverted to something totally unrecognizable. John A |

Penn State vs Illinois Homecoming Preview
Posted by Joe Chuba on 10/05 at 08:16 AM
Steve Jones analyses Penn State's loss to Iowa and previews the homecoming match-up with Illinois.
So much is made of third down in a football game because that is the down that either keeps a drive alive or kills it. The process to set up third down is just as important. Coaches call it staying on schedule. First down sets it all up. Saturday night in Iowa City first down meant a lot. Iowa was just two of ten on third down but on first down they had 174 yards. Ricky Stanzi was seven for nine passing on first down for 130 yards. Penn State which had been very strong on first down, stayed off schedule most of the night. Coming into the game Penn State had averaged 6.5 yards per play on first down and 53% of Penn State's offense for the season was on first down. While Iowa had 174 yards on first down, Penn State could only manage 65 yards. The Nittany Lions ran eight times for 17 yards and were 7 of 20 passing for 48 yards. All of that set up second and longs and third and longs.
Once again Penn State did not get into the pace of the game in the first half on the road. In the second half they played toe to toe if not a little better than Iowa but they were playing from behind and could not knock one in to make it a one score game.
A lot of freshmen are now playing. Obviously Rob Bolden at quarterback and Silas Redd at tailback were already playing. Kevin Haplea will now have to take over at tight end with Garry Gilliam out for the year. Linebackers Kiarri Fortt and Glen Carson along with tackle Daquan Jones are now deeply into the mix on defense. Injuries have made a young team even younger.
Now back to work for the homecoming game against Illinois… The Illini are also a young team. Ron Zook made some dramatic changes to his staff in the off season. He changed both coordinators and it seems to have made a difference. Illinois has been strong in the first half but they have struggled in the second half of games.
Illinois has been strong on the ground so far led by Mikel Leshoure who has 478 yards and averages 6.2 yards per carry. Overall Illinois averages 201 yards rushing per game.
The ground game is helped by quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase. He is second on the team in rushing with 216 yards. In the air he has been pretty good. He has hit 54% of his passes with three touchdowns but four interceptions. There is no doubt where he likes to go with the ball. Jarred Fayson has 16 catches and A.J. Jenkins has 13 catches. After that no one else has more than four.
The defense has certainly improved. The return of Martez Wilson from injuries has made a big difference. Linebacker Ian Thomas is also off to a strong start. Nate Bussey played well Saturday against Ohio State especially in blitz packages. Illinois has forced six turnovers all season but only have two interceptions.
Special teams are good but punter Anthony Santella has been outstanding. He is averaging 48.3 yards per kick with nine kicks over 50 yards and six kicks knocked inside the 20 yard line.
It is homecoming and more importantly bounce back time for the Nittany Lions.
Game notes:
This is the 91st Homecoming game at Penn State
The Nittany Lions are 39-5 in such games under Joe Paterno (2-0 vs Illinois)
Penn State leads the series with Illinois 14-3, and have not lost at home (6-0)
Last season the Nittany Lions won 35-17

Access for all
The rebuilding of Christchurch provides an opportunity to build a world class accessible city, rethink how support services are provided and make the most of the employment opportunities that the rebuild provides.
International experience shows that the most vulnerable populations tend to experience the worst outcomes in the aftermath of natural disasters. For disabled people, access to essential services like emergency accommodation, timely access to information about what was going on in accessible formats and returning support services to pre-quake levels were all issues in the immediate response period. Issues that continue to affect everyone such as broken roads and footpaths and inoperable public transport services often affected disabled people more.
Human Rights Commission to launch report in Christchurch on International Day of Persons with Disabilities
MP Mojo Mathers will launch a Human Rights Commission report on how to improve accessibility and introduce universal design to New Zealand's built environment in Christchurch on Monday 3 December. Better Design and Buildings for Everyone: Disabled People's Rights and the Built Environment is the first of a series of publications aimed at informing debate about disability issues. The publication summarises the Commission's experience with access to the built environment, includes domestic and international law and standards and offers recommendations to improve accessibility in future.
Says Ms Mathers, "Christchurch can be a world leader in accessible design, and this report provides guidance for achieving that outcome."
The report will be launched as part of the activities to acknowledge 3 December, International Day of Persons with Disabilities, when the United Nations asks all countries to consider ways to make the world a better place for disabled people. This year the international theme is "Removing barriers to create an inclusive and accessible society for all." The launch will be followed be an roundtable bringing together specialists from the building industry (including people with experience in research, design, construction, regulation and development), health sector, and the disabled community to discuss in practical terms how to achieve the vision of a fully accessible Christchurch. A key aim of the meeting is to create a process map for how this vision will be realised in the construction of new buildings and affordable housing.
Disability action plan
The Commission has worked with disabled people and their organisations to make sure their voices are heard and their rights are protected. Workshops, seminars and discussions have been held to ensure that the Commission understands the issues involved for various groups of people with disabilities. The Commission has made submissions and representations to the Government, the Christchurch City Council, the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority and Central Christchurch Development Unit and others to ensure that the rights of disabled people are protected and promoted.
The Ministerial Committee on Disability Issues has agreed to focus the implementation of the cross-government Disability Action Plan on the Canterbury recovery. The Commission made submissions to the draft of this plan.
The Disability Action Plan focuses on four core issues:
- Reconfiguring supports and services so people will have greater flexibility, choice and control over the supports they receive
- Improving the accessibility of the built environment
- Supporting access to employment opportunities
- Improving emergency preparedness
More information about the Disability Action Plan is available at: http://www.odi.govt.nz/documents/what-we-do/ministerial-committee-on-disability-issues/cabinet-progress-report-on-disability-action-plan-canterbury-30-april-2012.doc
Disability Recovery Plan
As part of the earthquake recovery process a series of recovery plans are being prepared, including an economic recovery plan and an education recovery plan. The Commission is involved in the development of a Disability Recovery Plan being led by the Canterbury Earthquake Disability Leadership Group. The recovery plan identifies a number of issues that are crucial to disabled people including:
- accessibility,
- employment opportunities
- access to recreation and sport services and facilities.
The Commission is involved with a group of key organisations including the Barrier Free Trust, the Be. Institute, the Royal New Zealand Foundation of the Blind, CCS Disability Action and Lifemark Design Ltd to ensure that there is a common and rigorous approach to rebuilding an accessible Christchurch.

Many of us are still looking for the fountain of youth, or at least something that will be closest to it. People have always been conscious of their appearance and would like to keep their youthful looks for a bit longer. It is with this obsession to looking youthful that people have gone through all sorts of extents just to do so. From slathering on some weird sounding age cream with equally weird sounding ingredients to going to the extent of shelling out a whole lot of cash just to have some cosmetic surgery done, people will definitely go through great lengths just to look younger than they really are. However, you do not need to go through great lengths just to keep your youthful looks. Most of the time, simply eating the right types of food will go a long way into helping you feel and look young.
There is a saying, "You are what you eat". This can be made truthful in so many ways. People who are constantly heading out to fast food chains to chow down on gastronomic and artery clogging burgers, fries and milkshakes will not only feel lethargic after the meal, their skin will start to look blotchy and greasy. The skin is obviously part of the rest of a person's body, and what you eat will definitely affect its appearance as well as its overall health.
Get Loads of Vitamins into Your System
A lot of people have this misconception that youthful looking appearance means that a person's skin should be elastic and tight. While this can be found in youthful looking skin, it would take so much more to looking young and radiant. To ensure that you look healthy and youthful, your skin should also be the same. And one efficient way to ensure that your skin has a youthful and radiant healthy glow is to have a good eating habit, which will definitely do the trick. Eating foods rich in antioxidants such as plums, blueberries, strawberries and blackberries is ideal. Antioxidants are essential to fight various free radicals found in the environment. These free radicals cause the skin to look dry and dull and can even cause premature skin aging. With antioxidants abundant in your system, you are able to fight these free radicals such as the ones we are exposed to when under the scorching heat of the sun. Berries are considered as super foods since not only are they rich in antioxidants, they are packed with healthy vitamins that will keep your skin healthy as well.
Have Some Healthy Oils
A lot of people refrain from eating dishes which are rich in fat for fear that they would gain unwanted weight and would clog their arteries. However, ingesting fats is also good for the body, if you know the right ones to eat. Fats from food such as nuts, canola oil, salmon and flaxseed oil will be ideal to use to complete a healthy diet. These types of foods are rich in fatty acids which would be beneficial in one's goal to achieving youthful and healthy looking skin. Essential fatty acids aid in keeping cell membranes healthy. These cell membranes are considered as the protectors of the body against harmful elements as well as the aid in allowing various nutrients to get in and out of the body and further aid in the removal of waste products.
Healthy oils also contain much more than essential fatty acids. Aside from being beneficial to the insides of the body, healthy oils help in keeping the skin hydrated and lubricated, thus giving the appearance of a healthy and radiant glow. However, this does not mean that you are allowed to pack in all the healthy oils you can get your hands on. Fatty foods, even the healthy kind, can pack in the calories, so it is important to make sure that you only get not more than two tablespoons of healthy fat a day.
Get Your Daily Dose of Fiber
As many people know by now, eating the right types of food will help one attain not only youthful looking skin but a healthy and youthful body. Having a healthy body inside and out will enable us to not only accomplish all sorts of tasks and activities but it will allow us to live longer without any or minimal health concerns. And one essential way to keep the body clean and healthy is to flush all the toxins out by eating lots of fibrous foods.
Eating foods rich in fiber is definitely crucial to keeping the body healthy and youthful inside and out. For one thing, fiber is a great cleansing tool for the body. Like earlier mentioned, it is used to flush out the various accumulated toxins inside the body. Toxins make a person feel lethargic and can even cause various skin problems such as pimples and acne. By flushing all the toxins out, your body feels ultra clean and healthy, thus achieving a youthful and equally healthy appearance.
Energy Inducing Foods
Have you ever felt so lethargic and sleepy after a heavy and high caloric steak and mashed potato meal? A meal rich in fat and protein without any source of energy will definitely make a person feel sluggish and weak after ingesting it. Therefore it is very important to eat food that can help naturally boost the energy. Food such as granola bars and cereals are good in giving a person an early boost to be able to kick start the day right. However, simply eating an energy induced meal once in a day will not be efficient. It is important to eat least 5 smaller meals a day to keep the energy flowing in your body. In addition to this, when it comes to snacking, make sure that you snack on healthy and organic food such as fruits and nuts in smaller portions.
Never skip meals, most particularly breakfast and always be conscious of what types of food you eat. Unhealthy treats such as candies, cakes and even fried goods should be treated as such and should only be eaten sporadically. At the end of the day, having a well balanced diet is key to achieving your very own fountain of youth.

WE have a big problem. My grandson is autistic and when he is upset he bangs the walls. The walls are of thin plaster over somekind of cardboard. I know nothing about patching walls but since this isn't the last time for these holes, I need to learn to repair the walls myself. There are several of these holes. Where do I start. |
Follow-Up Postings:
"thin plaster over somekind of cardboard" Are you sure this isn't drywall? If not I have never heard of plaster over cardboard. Bless you Grandma barbara2007. Have you talked to his doctors and couselors? If not you need to, they will try to help you focus his upset onto hitting a pillow or something before he hurts himself. |
Get a board narrower than the hole top to bottom and wider side to side. Put a large screw in the center of the board to hang on to. Slide the board in the hole and on each side place two or more drywall screws to hold the board in place. Remove the large screw. Cut a piece of drywall to fit the hole and use drywall screws to fasten in place. A thiner piece than the wall will work. Get a bag of 75 minute drywall powder and mix up less than you need. After a few hours do again. use drywall knives to spread the mud and smoothen it. Keep the open bag of drywall stuff closed and off a concrete floor. Use as needed. $20 or $30 should get you all you need to do a lot of holes. This includes the tools. Lumberyards and home centers do sell broken pieces of drywall, cost is 1 or 2 bucks. |

Castleford Tigers have banned a female supporter for 12 months after she entered the field of play during the First Utility Super League Round 6 fixture against Salford Red Devils at the AJ Bell Stadium on 23rd March 2014.
The woman has been banned from all home and away games until the end of March 2015 after running on to the pitch to remonstrate with the match referee. The ban has been imposed following an internal investigation undertaken in consultation with the RFL.
Castleford Tigers CEO Steve Gill said: "We have worked really hard to make Castleford Tigers a family club and we pride ourselves on making The Mend-A-Hose Jungle a safe and welcoming place to watch Rugby League.
"The behaviour of this person was totally unacceptable and the sanction imposed demonstrates our commitment to stand up for the true supporters of Castleford Tigers and protect our reputation.
"We have invested a significant amount of money in CCTV at The Mend-A-Hose Jungle and anyone found guilty of unruly or anti-social behaviour could face a lifetime ban."
Any supporters who notice incidents are advised to contact the nearest steward or text the Supporters Helpline on matchday - 07583 685225

Summary: Writing about multivariate analysis is a surprisingly common task. Researchers use these advanced statistical techniques to examine relationships among multiple variables, such as exercise, diet, and heart disease, or to forecast information such as future interest rates or unemployment. Many different people, from social scientists to government agencies to business professionals, depend on the results of multivariate models to inform their decisions. At the same time, ...show more many researchers have trouble communicating the purpose and findings of these models. Too often, explanations become bogged down in statistical jargon and technical details, and audiences are left struggling to make sense of both the numbers and their interpretation.
Here, Jane Miller offers much-needed help to academic researchers as well as to analysts who write for general audiences. The Chicago Guide to Writing about Multivariate Analysis brings together advanced statistical methods with good expository writing. Starting with twelve core principles for writing about numbers, Miller goes on to discuss how to use tables, charts, examples, and analogies to write a clear, compelling argument using multivariate results as evidence.
Writers will repeatedly look to this book for guidance on how to express their ideas in scientific papers, grant proposals, speeches, issue briefs, chartbooks, posters, and other documents. Communicating with multivariate models need never appear so complicated again. ...show less

True Confessions: Did Lance Armstrong pass the I'm sorry test?
Maybe it's his name: Lance Armstrong.
It's so perfect, like some romance novel lover or a comic book super hero. Maybe that's where it all began for young Lance. He thought he was invincible.
He looked anything but during his prime-time confession to media's Mother Superior, Oprah Winfrey. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) wasn't buying it; a week later USADA CEO Travis Tygart told 60 Minutes that Lance didn't really come clean with Oprah.
Veracity aside, Armstrong's very public – and choreographed - mea culpa affords an opportunity to think about the act and genre of confession.
What makes for a "good" one? And not by the standards of People or True Confessions magazines, but in the view of the people who wrote the book on the subject: the Roman Catholic Church. (One could, of course, argue that the organization that wrote the rules on confession hasn't done all that well in following them, but that's another matter.)
The Jesuit priest and author James Martin offered some interesting thoughts on the business of true and worthy confessions in the Jesuit periodical America. According to Martin, a good confession needs three things:
First, you must make a clean breast of the bad business. A full confession. Hints, allusions, and partial disclosures don't do it. It's got to be the whole sorry story, the whole nine yards, "the whole truth." Bill Clinton's parsing of "is" (as in, "It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is") stands as an illustration of how not to confess.
Second, you have to really mean it. You have to be truly contrite, remorseful, sorry. No hedging or non-apology apologies. "If I have offended anyone, I apologize" is a line quite a few fallen angels have fallen back on, among them Bill O'Reilly and Kelly Clarkson. Just "I am sorry." Period.
Third, the confession has to entail a true and real intent to make amends. You don't air out Saturday night's tawdry behavior just to do it all again next weekend. You don't acknowledge that you screwed the competition, then go back to your dirty tricks for the next race. You have to change your ways. Like Chuck Colson, former special counsel to President Richard Nixon, who served time in federal prison for his role in the Watergate scandal. The man who declared "I'd drive over my own grandmother for the President" went on to found and run a nonprofit prison ministry.
What the three must-haves for a good confession add up to is this: you have to surrender all attempts to justify yourself. Instead, you must throw yourself completely on the mercy of the court, or God, or your family or the professional association that runs your sport or business – or, for Lance, all of the above. You don't make excuses: "You made me do this," or "everyone was doing it," or "I only did it a little bit." You say, "I did it. Here's the whole sorry story. My heart is broken. I won't do it again."
This is pretty hard for us humans to do, since we are artists of self-justification. And according to James Martin, the sincere and heartfelt confession doesn't end there. There's follow-up and follow-through. The technical and theological term is "penance." You do actual, concrete, visible stuff to, insofar as is possible, make it right with the people you've injured.
If you're Lance Armstrong, the penance list is long. It might include apologizing to people you've threatened or defamed, which he apparently has done quite a lot of via Twitter. (Does that count?)
Since he can't possibly apologize in person to everyone he's let down, Lance's penance might also mean performing some unglamorous acts of service, like cleaning the local elementary school at night for the next decade or packing sacks of food for the hungry once a week for the rest of his life. Something like that.

Good and Evil
L. Patrick CarrolI had these thoughts about Lance and other issuesl
"The way to combat bad people with guns is by good people with guns!"
Wow! That line, with its facile separation of people into good and bad befuddles me, conflicting with everything I know about myself and other human beings.
In the weeks since this assertion surfaced, in an NRA response to the Newton tragedy, I have noticed our ubiquitous desire to separate people into good and bad.
A world class cyclist who consistently cheated to achieve his ends, while simultaneously raising billions of dollars to help find cures for cancer, was good, but now he's bad!
We want to know if a twenty-one year old football star, whose dead girlfriend never lived, is a good guy who loved less than wisely or a bad dude who was either too easily duped himself, or maliciously duped us?
We ponder how a disgraced South Carolina governor can be good enough to run for Congress?
I ponder. Can we trust a good people with a guns to stay good? Might they not lose their temper and shoot a spouse, get drunk and go on an unpredictable rampage, have an unplanned for breakdown and use their weapons in ways neither they nor the most strict government restrictions ever imagined?
I find myself unable to trust any notion of people being simply good or bad when I, and everyone I know, appear a unique mixture of both. The apparently bad have all performed at least some heroic deeds like getting up and going to work when sick because she needed a paycheck to buy her children's food; like, being willing to go on three battle tours and endure severe wounds only to go again, even if eventually to slaughter innocent women and children on a drunken binge; or like taking a pill every day, knowing it will keep them and others safe, if only half-alive and on the public dole.
The good, even the very good, have done things for which they are ashamed, little or big, public or private or both.
At his second inauguration, Lincoln hoped we would find and use the better angels of our nature after four painful years of experiencing the most demonic opposite across our land.
Human beings, individually and together are wondrous amalgams of prophetic and pathetic, saints and sinners, magnificently saved and damnably petty.
I do not know what happens when we die, nor do I trust someone who claims to, but I have had for many years an image of what, in a traditional theological framework, a final judgment might look like.
All of us are assembled before the divine throne when God appears; She's smiling! Instantly everything is clear. We look at one another with god-like insight; we know everything about everyone around us, and ourselves. We can see, can see through! We see the context, the back-story, the complexity, the profundity, the stupidity of ourselves and one-another.
And we all break out laughing!
"You did that too?" "You felt that too?" We look around us at those we loved, those we perhaps despised, those we never understood and those we thought we understood too well, as all the universe breaks out in one harmonious, never-again-judgmental laughter that rolls on forever. That would be some kind of heaven.
We could start it now!

Current Time
Gustavia , St. Barths
Tel: 590 590 52 46 11
Concierge.com's insider take:
Squeezed between Cartier and Hermès in Gustavia's Carré d'Or shopping pavilion, this Greek restaurant is known less for its tasty tzatziki, grilled fish, and calamari than as the place to gather at day's end for espresso or drinks. Umbrella-shaded tables line the center's courtyard, where you can make friends with the locals who stop in for a glass of rosé or those who just promenade past to see the scene. This is the best way to score invites to villa parties or find out which club is likely to be the most happening that night. Plus, you won't have to go far if you need something new to wear.—Cathay Che

Portland Oregon is one of those cities that live large in the national imagination. The City of Roses, as it's called, gets respect for its music scene, laid-back attitude, and excellent micro-brewed beer. Considering that it's one of the West Coast's largest metropolises, this place still feels like a big town that somehow remains resistant to overwhelming urbanization. If you're searching for apartments in Portland OR, expect an eco-friendly experience in the company of forward-thinking, alternative-minded people.
West Coast and big city living will always cost you more than the national norm, but prices aren't too out of sight. If you're looking for a place to call home, expect to pay around $1,200 a month for two-bedroom Portland apartments. Over a third of residents here are renters and about 6% of properties are available at any given time. That being said, the market can get a little competitive among renters, so definitely be decisive and quick when you find the perfect apartment in Portland.
Today, Portland is a pretty patchwork of interesting neighborhoods, many of which are worth your attention. Downtown serves as the heart of the city, particularly Pioneer Square with its modern condos and museums. Old Town marks the site of the original settlement and keeps things lively with an active nightlife. The Pearl District is trendy, mansions dot the maze-like streets of West Hills, and Hollywood.
Portland, Oregon doesn't slack when it comes to entertainment. Many residents here pass on tourist attractions-of which there are many-to hit indie rock shows, zine release parties, or other smaller-scale affairs. Among the highlights of Portland's sights, try the International Rose Test Garden, the oldest of its kind in the country. The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry and the Portland Art Museum are also both popular stops. Another point of Portland pride is Powell's City of Books, an entire block filled with more then 1.5 million new and used things to read.
If you'd rather spend some time outside, biking and running are popular Portland pastimes. Forest Park is just the largest of many green spaces within the city limits. If you prefer to watch other people exert themselves, grab tickets to watch the Portland Timbers play soccer or the Trail Blazers shoot some hoops.

PROVIDENCE — As state lawmakers look to make it harder for people with mental illnesses to obtain firearms, a new poll by The Providence Journal/WPRI 12 has found that 47 percent of Rhode Island voters think that the state's current gun laws do not go far enough.
The poll also found that 12 percent think the state's gun laws go too far, 25 percent think they "strike the right balance" and 16 percent were not sure.
But only about 5 percent of voters surveyed considered gun control the state's single most important issue going into next year's gubernatorial race, according to the poll.
The top issue for voters was the economy and jobs, which was cited by 57 percent of those surveyed. That was followed by taxes (12 percent), health care (12 percent) and education (11 percent). Gun control ranked the lowest.
Joseph Fleming, a veteran local pollster whose firm, Fleming & Associates, conducted the survey, noted that voters older than 60, Democrats, union members and women were among the groups that felt Rhode Island's gun laws do not go far enough.
Forty percent of Republicans, in contrast, said current laws strike the right balance, while 26 said they don't go far enough and 25 percent said they go too far.
Voters between the ages of 18 and 39 were divided on the issue, with 36 percent saying the state's gun laws strike the right balance, 27 percent saying they don't go far enough and 16 percent saying they go too far, according to the poll.
Gun control will likely be a major issue in the upcoming General Assembly session.
A state task force created by lawmakers has been meeting to determine why Rhode Island is one of the few states in the nation that does not provide mental health and substance abuse records to the federal gun background check database.
In other poll questions, 50 percent of voters said Rhode Island should not pay back roughly $90 million to investors who bought state-backed bonds for former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling's now bankrupt video-game company, 38 Studios.
Another 38 percent said the state should and 12 percent said they were unsure.
And a majority of Rhode Island voters oppose tolls on the Sakonnet River Bridge, which connects Portsmouth and Tiverton.
Fifty-seven percent said they opposed tolls, 35 percent supported them and 8 percent were not sure.
"Everyone knew that people on Aquidneck [Island] were opposed to them, but now we can see statewide that there's substantial opposition, too," Fleming said.
Lawmakers this summer backed away from a plan to impose substantial tolls on the newly constructed bridge.
Instead, lawmakers imposed a temporary, 10-cent toll and formed a study commission to come up with a plan to finance the long-term maintenance and repair of all state bridges.
The Journal/WPRI-12 poll also found that Rhode Island voters are divided on President Obama's national health-care overhaul, commonly known as Obamacare.
Forty-one percent had a favorable opinion of it, 42 percent had an unfavorable opinion of it and 17 percent said they were not sure.
Like gun control, Fleming noted that Obamacare is a deeply partisan issue: 59 percent of Democrats have a favorable opinion of it, while 78 percent of Republicans and 47 percent of independent voters have an unfavorable view.

[240] Outcomes Study of Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia and Ductal Carcinoma In Situ Treated with Excision
Junqi Qian, Aylin Rizki, Julio Chong, Justin Richey, Jedd Ticar, Liang Shan, Michael Idowu. Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA
Background: The natural history of low grade ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) suggests that the majority of the patients do not progress to invasive carcinoma. While there may be some practice variation, many treat DCIS with excision and radiation. Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) on the other hand is treated with excision without radiation. We evaluated 1) the time to recurrence, 2) the recurrence diagnoses and we compared the frequency of recurrence of ADH and DCIS.
Design: Women with ADH and DCIS treated with excisional biopsy from 1988 to 2006 at the VCUHS Breast Disease Cohort were identified through pathology review. All specimens had negative surgical margins. Only cases with at least 5 year follow-up information are included. Cases with total mastectomy and positive margins are excluded. Subsequent recurrences and/or subsequent development of infiltrating carcinoma on the same side were identified. We determined the prognostic significance of several histopathological characteristics of ADH and DCIS on initial diagnosis including size, and DCIS grade.
Results: There were 220 patients with a mean age of 55 years and a mean follow-up of 81 months (maximum follow-up, 266 months). 112 (51%) were ADH, of which 18/112 (16%) recurred (7ADH, 3 DCIS, 6 infiltrating ductal and 2 infiltrating lobular) with a mean time to recurrence of 45 months. 108 (49%) were DCIS (all grades) of which 23 (22%) recurred (7 ADH, 9 DCIS, 3 IDC, 3 ILC) with a mean time to recurrence of 57 months. The mean initial size of ADH was smaller than DCIS (1.56 vs. 2.17 cm2, P=0.01), but there was no significant difference in age at diagnosis (54 vs. 56 months), recurrent rate (16% vs. 22%), time to recurrence (45 vs. 57 months), and recurrent diagnosis (for each pair, p>0.05). Among DCIS, 62% were high-grade and 38% were low-grade. There was no significant in recurrence rates between low grade and high-grade DCIS (16% vs. 24%), P>0.05). Surprisingly, ADH and low-grade DCIS had an identical (16%) recurrence rate and the size was similar (1.56 vs. 1.71).
Conclusions: In this study, we found that the initial size for DCIS was large than ADH, and low-grade DCIS and ADH had an identical prediction value for the recurrence of atypia and malignancy in the breast. These findings suggest that the management options for ADH and low-grade DCIS should be evaluated carefully.

01 May 2012
By Brian Klosa, Speech Instructor
Greetings all,
On April 5th, the South Central College Speech Team traveled to San Marcos, Texas to compete at the 35th American Forensics Association National Individual Events Tournament hosted by Texas State University. The team brought along two competitors: Anna Kelley and Rebekah Buege.
South Central College's team finished in 3rd place in the community college division!!
A student must qualify for this tournament over the course of the year. This is not always the easiest thing. There were 83 schools in attendance and the total head count was 512 total students at the competition. Anna Kelley competed in five events and Rebekah Buege had four events.
Students compete in three preliminary rounds with two judges assigned for each round. The top 24 students in each event, after earning six total scores, advance to quarter finals. There are 251 total quarter final slots. Three schools earned a total of 105 out of these 251 slots. These are programs with full ride scholarships offered to students, faculty with release time, and travel budgets in the six figures.
SCC's little team hung in there. Anna and Rebekah both scored many first places in their respective rounds from judges. This means they more than likely beat many of the advancing quarter final students at one point or another. All of their events earned preliminary points. This is how the team earned enough points for 3rd place in their division.
The AFA tournament offers awards to the top twenty programs and the top three community colleges. Sixty other programs did not get a team award.
We have had a very successful year. Our small team is growing. We had success on the state and regional level and now we have success on the national level. Next year I have two students in Tess Drager and Ashly Kingery who will help keep the team going and hopefully I can use the Jedi Mind trick and con more students into doing this activity. I want to thank everyone who has supported us during the year. There is talent on this campus. I refuse to believe that SCC cannot be successful in academic pursuits like this. Yes we are a small school, but when our school name was announced to the national community and my two departing veterans walked up on stage to accept our award, none of that mattered. This tournament offers awards to the top twenty programs and the top three community colleges. Sixty other programs did not get a team award.
We did!
I am proud of these girls.

The Broncs managed to hire just about every lobbyist they could tackle this year in their rush to a financial windfall. Legendary fixers Wally Stealey, Bill Artist, Frank "Pancho" Hays and the formidable Steve Farber were all signed on. Stealey, Artist and Hays split $20,000 in Broncos cash as part of the lobbying gangbang, but the Brownstein Hyatt Farber & Strickland boys really got their hands deep inside Patsby's pockets. That firm--which sent attorneys Farber, Cole Finnegan, Gary Reiff and Ted Trimpa into the crush--collected approximately $10,000 a month from the team during the session.
Stealey seems to have been charged with the task of entertaining Colorado's fun-loving politicos. Records on file at the secretary of state's office show he spent hundreds of dollars buying food and drinks for the happy tipplers, including state senator Elsie Lacy, who sponsored the stadium bill in the Senate. Other recipients of Bronco food and drink tickets included representatives Vickie Agler, Debbie Allen, Norma Anderson, Jack Taylor and Brad Young. Senators Rob Hernandez and Jim Rizzuto were similarly feted--but a handful of legislators apparently still know how to see clearly through a gimlet glass, since Hernandez, Rizzuto and Young all went on to vote against the Broncos' bill.
It was Representative Doug Dean who got the real booty prize, though. The Colorado Springs Republican, who sponsored the Broncos' bill in the House, was given $300 worth of Denver Nuggets tickets by the Brownstein firm. Considering the pathetic performance of the Nuggs this year, maybe Deano should ask for a refund.
Do the math: Butt-covering seems to be a popular elective in the Denver Public Schools these days. At last week's school-board meeting, close to a dozen high-school principals and other administrators were scheduled to speak in response to Joseph C'de Baca, the contentious social studies teacher who has charged that the DPS brass has been cooking the books to boost graduation rates ("Zero for Conduct," April 23). Most of the speakers deferred to former West High principal Ed Cordova, who gave an impassioned fifteen-minute rebuttal to C'de Baca's claims of lax discipline, excessive credit waivers and other shenanigans. But while Cordova emphatically denied any sort of "conspiracy" in the top echelon of DPS, what little hard data he provided seemed to confirm at least some of what C'de Baca and several other teachers had claimed, particularly in the area of credits being waived to allow seniors to graduate. The now-retired Cordova admitted to granting nine such waivers last year; other DPS officials had told Westword that one of two waivers over several years would be typical. Add to that the number of students allowed to substitute other courses for required English or math classes, and roughly one of every ten 1997 West graduates took an unusual route to their sheepskin ceremony. Yet most of the counter-attack was focused on C'de Baca personally rather than the issues. School-board member Lee White called the teacher a "goofball" and "a bump on the road to progress." Fellow teacher Alan Chimento blasted C'de Baca as a "bad teacher" who was absent an average of one day a week when he taught at West. C'de Baca, who was scheduled to rebut the rebutters but instead left the crowded meeting early, says he was merely exercising his rights as a disgusted DPS employee. "Of course I took my sick days," he says. "Wouldn't you?"
Board to tears: C'de Baca isn't the only one who's been playing the dozens with the DPS board lately. Boardmember White, an investment banker who moonlights as a financial consultant to Pat Bowlen on the Broncos stadium issue when he isn't tackling education issues (L.W.'s job: helping P.B. line up the loans necessary to cover his share of the costs), was apparently none too pleased when a group of disgruntled Hispanic parents showed up to stage a protest outside his 17th Street office a couple of weeks back. Padres Unidos, a group lodged in a long-running battle with DPS over how best to address bilingual education, distributed fliers at the event declaring White "Guilty!!" of obstruction of justice because kids with limited English proficiency fare poorly in the DPS system. While they were at it, they added that he is an "ineffective political hack."
The strong words drew a strong response from a hacked-off DPS last week. District public-information officer Mark Stevens fired off a letter of complaint to the Chinook Fund, a local charitable foundation that helps bankroll Padres Unidos. In his missive, Stevens not so subtly suggested that the fund should cut the protesters off. "We assume that you would rather not support a group that relies on such tactics," wrote Stevens, adding that the get-Whitey flier was full of "mean-spirited lies and imagery." For now, though, it looks as though DPS will have to live with Padres Unidos's bedeviling tactics. According to Chinook Fund executive director Mike Roque, his group supports "liberal and progressive and radical organizations that don't have access to traditional funding"--and has no intention of turning off the tap. "We're kind of upset that DPS would actively try to seek to undermine a group's funding," notes Roque.

Home › Academics › Honors Program › The Curriculum
Honors studies begin with a set of integrated and interdisciplinary Honors Seminars:
In these small interactive seminars, Honors Scholars join a centuries-old conversation about how we make sense of our human condition, and what ideas, principles and practices best equip us to live well. Honors Scholars analyze literary and artistic creations, mine historical accounts, weigh philosophical arguments and political debates, and examine scientific discoveries and technological innovations — all with an eye toward deepening our understanding about ourselves and the world in which we live.
The Honors Program reflects and reinforces the educational values and course requirements of the Tulsa Curriculum. Scholars are encouraged to think hard about difficult ideas, to ask unsettling questions, to defend what they say with good reasons, and to write with clarity, confidence, and grace. In short, the Honors seminars aspire to help scholars cultivate the habits of mind and attention that distinguish a well-rounded, well-educated human being. Because of this, each Honors Seminar counts toward "block course" requirements that all University of Tulsa students must fulfill.
The Honors Portfolio invites Honors Scholars to reflect upon how their studies influence their own development. At the end of each semester, Scholars reflect upon the ideas they have been engaging, the work they have been doing, the questions they have answered and, most importantly, the new set of questions they have discovered. Scholars' reflection advances in three parts:
Honors professors read Honors Scholars' portfolio entries so that they may help Scholars identify potential research questions, recognize Scholars' burgeoning interests, and articulate emerging themes across Scholars' interests.
After completing the Honors Core Curriculum, Honors Scholars review their Honors Portfolio with two TU professors (one from the Scholar's home major and one in a different discipline). Together, the Scholar and the professors design an Honors Plan — a course of action that will complement the Scholar's developing area of expertise with well-chosen interdisciplinary inquiries. Honors Scholars tailor their Honors Plan to suit their developing interests and to serve their particular aspirations. With the guidance of an Honors Mentor, Scholars pursue their Honors Plan and continue building their Honors Portfolio.
Honors Scholars who wish to enrich their studies as an upperclassman with independent work must file their Honors Plan with the Honors Program Office by October 1 of their fifth semester at TU.
To remain eligible for the Honors Program and the Honors Scholarship, Honors Scholars should be making good progress through the Honors curriculum. Specifically, Honors Scholars must:

In keeping with a nationwide downward trend, Kamloops saw half the number of homicides in 2013 compared with 2012.
This year Kamloops police investigated three instances of homicide - one deemed manslaughter, one categorized as operation of a motor vehicle causing death and one that is still under investigation.
"For a city this size that number is fairly reasonable," said Kamloops RCMP Staff Sgt. Grant Learned.
The Kamloops RCMP tally does not include the Anglemont murder-suicide of 45-year-old Tracy Nicol and 15-year-old Christian Robert Tallick.
The manslaughter stems from a house fire on St. Paul Street last May that took the life of 44-year-old Cheryl Williams. A Kamloops man, 32-year-old David Peter Gordon, makes his next court appearance on charges of manslaughter and arson on Jan. 2.
The homicide still under investigation involves the death of 32-year-old Michael Irving Young, who was found dead underneath the Overlanders Bridge in July.
Kamloops RCMP did not provide details on the vehicular homicide since it was investigated by the rural detachment.
This year's rate is also an improvement on 2009 and 2010, which saw four criminal deaths each. However it's up slightly from the 2011 total of two homicides.
Learned said there's no one controllable factor that contributes to rates going up or down.
"You can't really hang it on one variable or another. It's so nebulous," he said. "A lot of these crimes of violence are frequently spontaneous. It's sort of a momentary fit of rage."
But Learned does feel comfortable saying that the lack of organized crime in town helps.
"You can never let up," he said of fighting gang activity. "That's one of the things that we as a detachment have been pretty focused on."
Statistics Canada just released figures for 2012 showing that the country experienced its lowest homicide rate since 1966.
Police recorded 543 homicides in Canada in 2012, down 55 from the previous year.
The agency says the 2012 homicide rate was 1.56 victims for every 100,000 population, down 10 per cent from 2011 and the lowest in four decades.
It says most of the drop in homicides was accounted for by three provinces.
Alberta had 24 fewer killings, British Columbia had 16 fewer and Saskatchewan dropped by nine.
Quebec, the Northwest Territories and Ontario were the only jurisdictions with increased homicides and they were only three, two and one higher, respectively.
In 2012, the homicide rate was highest in Nunavut at 14.84 for every 100,000 in the population, while among the provinces, Manitoba continued to record the highest homicide rate, at 4.10 for every 100,000.
Despite the overall decrease in homicides in 2012, fatal shootings increased to 172 from 158 in 2011.
Although the number of shootings increased in 2012, the rate of firearm-related homicides remained among the lowest in almost 50 years.
About 65 per cent of firearm homicides involved handguns.
Shootings accounted for a third of all killings while 31 per cent involved stabbing.
Gang-related homicides were unchanged in 2012 from previous two years, with 95 deaths.
The rate of gang killings remained stable for the third year in a row at 0.27 victims for every 100,000 population. Prior to this, gang-related homicides had generally been increasing since the early 1990s, until peaking in 2008.
The data say most homicide victims knew their killer. Among solved homicides in 2012, 84 per cent of homicide victims were killed by an acquaintance or a family member.
The number of homicides committed by strangers decreased slightly in 2012, resulting in the lowest rate of stranger homicide in more than 40 years.
Police reported 82 intimate partner homicides in 2012, with 83 per cent involving a female victim. The rate of intimate partner homicide in 2012 was consistent with rates recorded over the previous five years.
There were fewer homicides committed by youths in 2012 than the previous year, with the youth homicide rate dropping to 1.42 for each 100,000 population, the lowest rate in over a decade.

I write this often, because it never stops being amazing to me: we need to seriously re-evaluate our classification of football players as "humans".
If a normal person tore his triceps — even partially — he would then be strapped to a bed for several weeks while watching re-runs of The Price is Right. Well, I don't mean literally strapped, unless that's your thing.
But 49ers defensive tackle Justin Smith suffered that injury, and then he missed only two games before returning for San Francisco's playoff opener against Green Bay. Then over his next two games while playing in what was supposedly a limited capacity he recorded nine tackles, which is right in line with his season average of 4.7 per game. And he's done it while lugging around Robocop's arm.
Time heals all wounds, or so they say, and that includes vital muscles and tendons. So now as we begin Super Bowl week a crucial cog in the 49ers' front seven is saying something that isn't enjoyable for the Ravens' collective ears. He's feeling pretty damn good about himself.
From the Sacramento Bee:
"I can do more stuff every week," said Smith, one of six 49ers given 'podium duty' today in front of the media. "I think it heals up, obviously, as more time goes by and it's feeling better."
While no one is truly healthy in late January/early February of any NFL season, we're beginning a rare Super Bowl week when there isn't a specific muscle or bone to monitor intensely. Last year, it was Rob Gronkowski's ankle, and two years ago it was the same body part, but it was on a different person (Maurkice Pouncey). So what the hell are we going to talk about all week now? I'm sure we'll find something. Like, say, how many times "Harbaugh" will be said during the broadcast.
The importance of Smith to the Niners' defense goes beyond Smith. Aldon Smith hasn't recorded a sack since Week 15, a drought that began when Justin was first injured. But don't tell Justin about Aldon's struggles without Justin (seriously, one of the two best players on San Francisco's defense needs to get a name change…this is getting ridiculous). He noted that Matt Ryan and Aaron Rodgers adjusted to the Niners' pass rush and made life difficult, getting the ball out quickly and rolling away from the heart of the rush. He also talked about the surface-y nature of the sacks statistic, and as Marc Sessler of NFL.com observed, he's right.
Pro Football Focus charted the pressure created by Aldon during the NFC Championship, when he pressured Ryan seven times. While sacks are neat, the more general goal of the pass rusher is to make life as horrible as possible for a quarterback, and seven pressures is a fine day.

Locke & Key has become something of a modern comic book classic, but that success hasn't yet translated to the silver screen. The rights to an adaptation have been bounced around all over Hollywood, starting at Dimension in 2010, before being reworked as a Fox TV pilot. Unfortunately (and despite a great reception at Comic-Con), Fox decided it was too expensive to pursue, and the property has since been floating in limbo. Luckily, it now looks like Locke & Key has found a new home at Universal, where Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci will produce a big screen adaptation.
THR broke the news, although details are scant on who is being considered as a potential writer or director.
The original graphic novel follows the story of three siblings who move back to their family home in Massachusetts after their father's death. There they discover magical keys that grant them special powers, but are forced to contest with a demonic force that wants to use the keys to unlock a gateway to hell.
The comic was an immediate hit, selling out of its first issue in a single day when it premiered in 2008. There's definitely a lot of fans looking forward to a movie adaptation, and with the comic finally settled at a studio, it sounds like the real work can finally begin.

It´s that time of year, I´ll tell you - Rio de Janeiro has nothing on Murtas! While the rest of Spain dresses up and floats head down streets to cheering crowds - we have......nada.
Until the other night, at least, sitting in Bar Pinche having a natter when some visitors walked in.
Let´s just say there were well oiled.
And dressed up too, hats, hair curlers, false nose warts - I think - and wigs. They were joining us from Cordoba - here for a Matanza and decided to get merry afterwards. A lovely group, really friendly and interested in Murtas - we need more visitors here to our little village - they were charmed by the traditional life here far from the madding costas, it really is the Real Spain!
Come see for yourself - book Casa Duende for a few days in Spring and walk away your stress and.... relax!

Hudson Link's Zero Percent Documentary was a success!
Posted by Santiago.Rivera on Monday October 1, 2012
This past Tuesday, September 25, in Shuman Hall (Nyack College Rockland undergraduate campus), students and faculty learned about the lives of several people who are pursuing a higher education while serving time in prison. We learned that this is not an easy path to take. It doesn't only consist of prisoners attending class just because they have nothing else to do. It involves their families' hopes and dreams as well as the students' strong desire to give something back to the society they once hurt.
Personally, I was moved by this whole initiative. It transformed my life with a simple sentence: "You are not your worst action". Someone's worst moment should not define who they are. Yes, people who are part of this program once hurt society somehow, and yes, they either ruined or even ended someone else's life. The question is: Are we (members of society) going to chastise these students for the rest of their lives or are we going to give them a suitable platform for them to use their energy and desire to give back to the society they once hurt? I choose the latter.
"A mind is too wonderful to be wasted", powerful words expressed by the Center for Scholarship and Global Engagement's director, Dr. Nina Balmaceda. The determining note of the panel presentation offered after the documentary was one of excitement and hope. It was formed by Dr. Balmaceda, four former students of the program, one of whom is today Hudson Link's Executive Director, Sean Pica, and as a moderator, Nyack College student Jackie Zapata.
Follow this link for the audio podcast of the panel discussion presented after the documentary was shown. http://nyackcsge.podbean.com/2012/10/01/zero-percent-panel-discussion/
