Shortly after, Michael himself called and said on the phone, "I shot my wife." He then stayed on the phone with police until they arrived at his home shortly after.
Their two children, both under the age of 10, witnessed the shooting, TMZ reported, and were extremely upset and taken into the police station. It took Children's Services four hours to get there and take the children to a family member's home.

You BIG FOOL! It's not a black thang! People kill people everyday regardless of color. I am sick and tired of y'all pointing fingers and acting like blacks need to be held accountable. Domestic violence is what it is. Take up a hobby or do something to make yourself feel valuable today.

Association of IL28B polymorphisms with virological response to peginterferon and ribavirin therapy in children and adolescents with chronic hepatitis C
Tajiri H, Tanaka Y, Takano T, Suzuki M, Abukawa D, Miyoshi Y, Shimizu T, Brooks S. Hepatol Res. 2013 Jul 11. doi: 10.1111/hepr.12206. [Epub ahead of print]
Department of Pediatrics, Osaka General Medical Center.
AIMS: To find baseline predictive factors of response to therapy with pegylated interferon and ribavirin (PEG-IFN/RBV therapy) in children and adolescents with chronic hepatitis C.
METHODS: IL28B genotype and mutations in the core of HCV were analyzed in 30 patients treated with PEG-IFN/RBV for HCV infection. The initial rate of decrease in the viral load was assessed during the first two weeks of treatment.
RESULTS: IL28B major allele was seen more frequently in patients with sustained virologic response (SVR) than in non-SVR patients (P<0.001). There was no difference between these two groups in frequency of Core 70 mutation. Among patients with genotype-1, SVR was achieved in more patients (P=0.007) in the IL28B major allele group than in those in the minor allele group. The early decrements in the viral load (log/two weeks) were 3.80 ± 0.86 in the genotype-2 major allele group, 1.82±0.84 in the genotype-1 major allele group, and 0.41±0.33 in the genotype-1 minor allele group.
CONCLUSIONS: Among pediatric patients with HCV infection the effectiveness of PEG-IFN/RBV therapy may be lower in the group with genotype-1 IL28B minor alleles than in other groups with IL28B major allele. Treatment strategy should be carefully implemented in patients with IL28B unfavorable type.

MAD Deciphers the True Meaning of J.K. Rowling's Anagram Tweet
We've been counting down our top 12 posts of 2011, and it's finally time for #1! 2011 was yet another year when government officials just couldn't get out of their own way. Unlike the Harry Potter saga's conclusion, which thrilled millions of moviegoers, Barack Obama and John Boehner's continuing economic conflict shows no signs of resolving in a manner that will satisfy anyone at all. This post is from mid-July, and these two are still going at it!
This weekend begins the long-awaited final battle between two bitter adversaries.


text: Antipope (974 and 984-985), born Rome, Italy; died there. A cardinal-deacon, he was appointed by Crescentius, in opposition to Benedict VI, whom he murdered. He was banished by Otto, 974, but returned, 983, after the emperor's death, imprisoned John XIV, and reinstated himself. He died, probably by violence, after a reign of less than two years.New Catholic Dictionary

An Evaluation of a Web-based Intervention Program for Parents and Teens to Promote Safe Driving
- Full Text View

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The long-term goal of this research is to increase safe driving among novice teen drivers by increasing the quantity, quality and diversity of driving practice while accompanied by an adult. In order to achieve the long term goal of the study, the investigators have developed a web-based intervention program known as Teen Driving Plan (TDP) intended to support high quality driving practice.
Condition | Intervention |
Novice Teen Driver Training |
Behavioral: Teen driving plan |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor) Primary Purpose: Prevention |
Official Title: | An Evaluation of a Web-based Intervention Program for Parents and Teens to Promote Safe Driving |
- Early driving performance in on-road assessment test [ Time Frame: 3 months after enrollment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The first drive will be scheduled as soon after subjects have completed 12 +/- 2 weeks of practice. The subjects will use a beginner or "early" route for their first on-road driving assessment (ODA). The early route reflects the amount of time the subjects have been practicing. It does not include driving elements that are more suitable for a more experienced driver.
- Late driving performance in on-road assessment test [ Time Frame: 6 months after enrollment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The second drive will be scheduled as soon after subjects have completed 24 +/- 2 weeks of driving practice. This drive is considered the "late" route, which includes more advanced driving environments.
- Number of participants who pass the Pennsylvania (PA) Junior licensure test [ Time Frame: Up to 12 months after enrollment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The investigators will ascertain whether subjects passed the PA Junior Licensure Exam on their first attempt.
Estimated Enrollment: | 1100 |
Study Start Date: | December 2011 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | December 2013 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | December 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Arms | Assigned Interventions |
Experimental: Teen Driving Plan
Access to web-based driving intervention
Behavioral: Teen driving plan
Web-based intervention designed to facilitate parent supervised practice driving with novice teen driver.
No Intervention: Usual practice
Use of typical supervised practice driving resources
Detailed Description:
Motor vehicle crashes remain the number one cause of death among teens in the United States. Teen drivers (ages 16 to 19) are four times more likely to be involved in fatal crashes than adult drivers (ages 25 to 69). Inexperience is a fundamental factor in the high crash rate for novice teens. Safe and skilled driving is a complex task that involves behaviors (e.g., skills and actions) that vary and become increasingly challenging with increasing speed, unsafe road conditions and other hazards of the driving environment. Because teens are at their lowest lifetime risk of crashing when accompanied by an adult, adult-supervised practice provides a safe way for teens to gain needed experience under a variety of driving conditions. Unfortunately, few teens receive sufficient quantity, quality and diversity of adult-supervised practice prior to licensure.
The objective of the proposed research is to compare how the driving training process and the results of that training process differ between a group of young learning permit holders in families that have access to TDP (the intervention group) from the training process and the results of that process in an otherwise similar group of teens in families with no TDP access (the control group). The investigators hypothesize that teens given access to TDP will demonstrate greater competence and safety in a standardized on-road driving assessment than teens with no TDP access.
Ages Eligible for Study: | 16 Years to 17 Years |
Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | Yes |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Teen 16 or 17 years of age who holds a PA learner permit, or plans to obtain a learner permit in < 1 month.
- Parent(s) or legal guardian(s) of a teen with his or her learner permit.
- Internet connection at home and other technical requirements to launch web program if needed.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Non-English speaking.
- Teen has practiced more than 5 hours behind the wheel or has taken more than 5 practice drives with a supervising adult prior to enrollment.
- Teen has received formal behind-the-wheel driver education instruction prior to enrollment with a certified driving instructor at a professional driver education company or in his/her school.
- Pregnant female teen subjects.
- Teen requires handicapped placard or license plate in order to drive.

Gardening Tip of the Day
If you live in an area that receives regular snowfall, some trees are better choices than others where road salts are used to improve driving and walking conditions. Avoid planting red maple, white pine, swamp white oak and little leaf linden near roadways.
Trees tolerant of salt include Norway maple, green ash, ginkgo, honey locust, Bradford pear, and English and red oak.

i was reviewing pictures i'd done when i was younger, and i came across a booklet i made when i was in catholic school, in second grade, about the sacraments. i drew pictures for each, and not only did i think i was going to be a priest (women can't become priests in a catholic church), but the picture i drew for marriage had no guy, just the bride standing there. and i love that in second grade i drew in cleavage.
Haha! Great!

@nony - I've heard about confidentiality in the work place, but the scenario you described beats anything I've ever heard in my life. You practically have to wrap your lives around that customer. I would suspect it's a high-paying client to make those kinds of demands.
I think, however, that you might find a similar security setup with private defense contractors for example who do classified work for the federal government. To work on these high security assignments, they probably have to do everything short of requiring retinal eye scanners for their employees-although they probably do that as well.

Mykonos - one of the most famous Greek Island
Posted on: March 31, 2011 at 7:58AM
Mykonos is the most rule-breaking island in Greece and
most of the times is compared to Ibiza, in Spain.
Mykonos is famous for its cosmopolitan atmosphere, its very exciting nightlife that is the reason why its often compared to Ibiza still it has all the beauties of the Cyclades islands with its whitewashed houses with turquoise waters.
I visited Mykonos last year with my mum and I really enjoyed it. Comparing to other islands I found it quite expensive but you don't have to forget that it is very chic :)
If you go to Mykonos don't forget to bring a jacket for the wind and .... be careful if you drive a scooter :) - for the wind :)
I strongly suggest to visit Mykonos in June - July - September . August may be too overcrowded.
I wrote about my trip in Mykonos in my blog www.sunnygreece.it

Sabolo Besar Island
Travel Guide
A popular day trip from Labuan Bajo or Seraya Island, Sabolo Besar is the larger of two islands more or less directly north of Komodo National Park.
The island has a brilliantly white sand and broken coral pinnacle on its east coast that juts out into the water and, when it isn't covered in flotsam, offers picture-postcard white sand beaches and amazing turquoise waters.
The best snorkelling is off the south side of the pinnacle -- walk as far along the sand as you can then just swim out. There is a nice dropoff (not too deep), plenty of coral and we saw multiple turtles here. The reef is a bit beaten up in places and isn't as good as Kanawa or Seraya, but it is still definitely worth getting wet for.
When we visited, there was a quite strong west to east current so you could walk down, jump in, drift back up, get out and repeat the process. The boatman warned against trying to snorkel around the island -- partly because it is quite big, but also because the currents are stronger on the backside of the island.
There is no accommodation here and as such the beaches are not cleaned regularly. When we visited the amount of trash at the high water mark was substantial, but the water was crystal clear with no rubbish to speak of.
The beach has little shade and the white sand and broken coral really reflects the light, so bring lots of sunscreen and plenty of water. Lastly, this is a popular spot for daytrippers, so try to get here early.
Sabola can be reached at least from Labuan Bajo, Kanawa and Seraya -- we visited from the latter with a boat costing 300,000 rupiah for a half day -- best try and rustle up a few people to bring the costs down.

If this pen were a movie, it would be…
The Aurora Encounter (1986)
Eric: 7 – The Aurora 88 Large is presented in an attractive black outer box, which sports a nice Aurora logo on the box top along with the image of a nib. A script font in both Italian and English reads: Italian Passion, Sign of Distinction. Removing the lid reveals tissue paper in an understated red tone surrounding the inner presentation clamshell box.
The presentation box is rectangular and covered with leather or a leather-like material. The Aurora logo is neatly embossed on the lid. The box is lovely but I see immediately that the leather (like) material is not perfectly put together at the box corners.
Lifting the lid reveals an elegant, cream colored interior and the Aurora 88 Large resting like Sleeping Beauty. You know immediately that this packaging will not be thrown away. Lifting the pen's "bed" from the box uncovers the Aurora pamphlet (company information, instructions, warranty) and, in my case, a nice note stating that the nib has been "Binderized."
Dan: 7 – Unfortunately, my Aurora 88 didn't come with it's original box. Even if it had I assume it would be very different from the current packing that Eric received. For this section my score will default to Eric's.
Eric: 8.5 – The Aurora 88 Large not only uses my preferred filling system, the piston, but it does so with an eye to both style and function. The ink window might be considered a bit on the small side, but I'm very glad that it is completely concealed by when the pen is capped. The piston mechanism works flawlessly and the pen fills with ink very nicely. The "hidden reservoir," accessed by extending the piston when you've run out of ink, is ingenious. The piston turning knob is smooth and a tad too thin, making it almost seem difficult to turn.
Dan: 8.75 – Aurora has a slightly different take on the piston filling system. When you run out of ink in most piston filling fountain pens that's pretty much it, you can't write anymore. But the Aurora has something of a reserve built in. When you run out of ink in the 88 you can cycle the piston to the fully extended position to release enough ink to get through the rest of the day. The piston knob will then be in the extended position acting as a reminder that the pen needs to be refilled.
The operation of this ink reserve is quite simple. In the picture below you can see a tube protrude up into the barrel. Ink can only get to the feed through this tube. When the ink level is higher than the end of the tube the ink can reach the feed and nib. Once the ink level falls below the top of the tube the feed will no longer have access to ink. When you extend the piston it takes up the space below the tube and pushes the ink above the piston where it can flow into the tube and therefore to the feed and nib.
The operation is very simple and works exactly as it's supposed to. I've run the 88 dry several times and was glad to have that little reserve. I do wish Aurora had made the piston knob act more like the original 88 where it didn't extend as you cycled the piston. I realize it wouldn't make a very good reminder if the piston knob stayed in the same position throughout its stroke, but I just prefer it to operate that way and is more reminiscent of the original 88. My only other qualm with this piston filler is that because of its reserve feature it seems like it's nearly impossible to get the liquid inside the barrel completely clear when rinsing the pen. After several cycles the water comes out clear, but the little bit of liquid still left inside is tinted with whatever color was previously in the pen.
Eric: 9 – As would be expected from a quality pen with a nib tested and adjusted by Richard Binder, the Test Drive was awesome. The Extra Fine nib could almost be called butter smooth, though it lays down a Fine (as opposed to Extra Fine) line. The pen performed everything I asked of it perfectly, both on the straightaways and in the twisties. I didn't want the Test Drive to end.
Dan: 9 – I was extremely excited when I first received this pen. I tore the packaging open and didn't hesitate to fill the pen. I didn't go through any pre-fill routines or cleaning. I just filled it with ink right away. The action from the piston was smooth and nearly filled the barrel full on the first try. I cycled the piston again and got a full fill. The XF nib was the exact width I expected and the flow was great. I was very impressed with the way the pen felt and how well it was balanced. To say the least, I was ecstatic about my purchase.
Eric: 7.25 – The Aurora 14kt Extra Fine nib, which is rhodium treated in my case, is an outstanding performer. Unfortunately, the artwork on the nib leaves much to desire. The nib is stamped dead-center with a rather plain looking "14K." That hallmark is contained in an almost perfectly circular oval, which is itself surrounded by symmetrical scrollwork that is probably meant to resemble classic architectural lines, but instead looks chintzy. The name AURORA is nicely stamped at the bottom of the nib, but it doesn't belong there. It should be front and center and proudly displayed.
I can only imagine that Aurora was going for a subdued or non-boastful look with this nib. But really, who puts 14K front and center? They could not have made a more generic looking nib had they tried. I know that Aurora makes their own nibs. Perhaps they sell these very same nibs sans the Aurora name to third-parties? (Wild conjecture, please disregard.)
Dan: 5.5 – I have a slightly older style 88 and I'm really conflicted about its nib. I love the way it writes and its shape. The shape is reminiscent of vintage flex nibs in the way that the tines are long and skinny. I think the long tines really improve the proportions of the nib. But, what I don't like is the design of the imprint. It completely fails to display the stature of the pen that it's in. The only thing saving it from me thinking it came from a cheap, Chinese knock-off is the '14k' stamped in the middle. I absolutely cannot stand the scroll work and this nib is dominated by it! Aurora didn't even stamp their name on this nib. Thank God they at least do that on the current version. I just don't get it. I would rather have the nib be completely blank than the design that's on there.
Eric: 9.5 – It would be very, very difficult to improve the performance of my Aurora 88 Large. The pen does what you want, when you want, and how you want – every time you want it. It has zero flow issues, doesn't even think about skipping or hesitating, and will write immediately even after 30 days of awaiting attention.
The one small complaint I have is that the pen tends to turn of its own volition in my hand as I write. I'd love to blame myself for this peculiarity, but as other pens (even those with Extra Fine nibs) do not have this tendency in my hand, I have to implicate the Aurora 88. I can't be sure of the cause, but if I had to guess, I'd say the pen's section makes a steadfast grip difficult either by virtue of its shape or smoothness (or both).
Dan: 7 – If you're not familiar with Aurora's 'feedback' that I mention in the Road Trip then I'll try to do my best to explain it here. Normally, when I mention feedback I'm talking about a smooth nib that transmits the texture of the paper into my hand. The feeling I get from my Aurora is more than this. It's not scratchy, but it's not smooth. And it's not due to a problem with the nib. I've examined it very closely many times. The tines are perfectly aligned. I can't figure out what gives it that feel. This isn't my preferred feel and I think it may be more of an acquired taste. I should mention that not every single nib comes from Aurora like this but enough have that many people are familiar with what I'm talking about. If you're interested in getting an Aurora I would either try before you buy or buy from a retailer that allows returns because you may very well not like this feeling.
In Under the Hood I mentioned that the nib has long, skinny tines similar to those of vintage flex nibs. I should expand on this a bit. The nib is certainly soft and actually quite springy, but I wouldn't call it flexible. You can get some line variation with moderate pressure, like going from an XF to a Medium. Again, I can't say if all Aurora nibs are going to be like this.
After reading Eric's Performance section it makes me quite envious of a Binderized 88!
Eric: 8.5 – The Aurora 88 Large is the epitome of classic fountain pen design. It is function wrapped in timeless beauty. I chose the chrome cap and chrome furniture option specifically because the AURORA name on the cap is displayed in block letters. Other models display the name in a cursive font that I find ill-matched to the pen's design. The pen's girth is generous, but could be slightly larger. The clip is beautiful. The smooth and shiny dome at the cap's top seems like it could be improved, but I'm at a loss as to suggesting how. As with the original (vintage) Aurora 88, the band at the piston turning knob adds visual appeal. As previously mentioned, I particularly like the fact that the ink window is out of sight when the pen is capped. Under my fingers, the change in diameter of the section/grip feels steep, but that's probably just me.
Dan: 8.25 – Did Eric just say the clip on this pen is beautiful? That's gotta be a first. But he's absolutely right. The clip is a juiced up version of what came on the original 1950's 88 and flows better into the cap even though it's slightly less streamlined. I think the design of the clip makes the entire pen seem more elegant.
Aurora offers the 88 Large in five different trim options. My particular pen is referenced as the 801 and features a gold plated cap and trim but I've also owned the 800 which has a resin cap with gold plated clip and cap band. One thing I really like about my older style 88 is that "AURORA" is written in all caps (just like in the quote) instead of the script as on their current pens. I just don't care for that script font. Like the scroll work on the nib, this font they use comes of as cheap to me. Please let me know in the comments if I'm the only one that gets that vibe.
Other than the scroll work on the nib and the font used on the cap of current pens, I love the design of the 88. I like the shape of the section, especially the lip near the nib. I also appreciate that they've kept the ink window hidden when the pen is capped just like on the original 88. Except for not having a hooded nib, this is a great modern interpretation of the 88.
Eric: 8.5 – With the naked eye, it is difficult to find detailing imperfections on the Aurora 88 Large, but hand me my loupe and well we'll go on a Flaw Safari. The cap and clip are very much in order. There appears to be a slight gap just below the cap's dome where it meets the top of the clip, but the edge of Rhodia paper refuses to enter so the gap is very narrow. The topography between the pen's barrel, the piston turning knob, and the ring that separates them is not perfectly level. This can easily be felt with fingertips. It's close to level, very close, but not perfect. I note one minor blemish in the ink window, but only with the loupe. Just beyond the ink window, the threads for the cap are precision perfect. I find a couple of seam-like marks on the top edge of the section near the nib.
Dan: 9.25 – The quality of construction and detailing on my Aurora 88 Large is just outstanding. The gold plating on the cap is flawless. Every inch of plastic is polished to a wet-like gloss. Even the ink window is crystal clear. I can't find any imperfections anywhere on this pen. The only thing I can find to complain about, and this is stretching it a bit, is that due to the method of construction of the ball on the clip I can barely make out two little seams. It's just enough to let you know that they didn't attach a perfect sphere to the end of the clip. The pictures below should show what I'm talking about.
In addition to the sharp eye Aurora has for details they also know how to build a rock solid pen. There's a big difference between the feel of the metal and plastic cap. I very much prefer the metal cap for both its feel and looks. The cap screws and posts securely to the pen and the clip is beefy enough that it shouldn't have a problem staying clipped exactly where you want it. The piston is also a very solid unit. I never got the feeling that anything on this pen was delicate or that I had to be more careful with it than other pens, which isn't something you can say about some other premium fountain pens.
Eric: 9.25 – This was a Road Trip that I did not want to end. The Aurora 88 Large is a joy. It takes you where you want to go in both comfort and style. The pen is a writing machine. There were no hard starts, no hesitations, no skips of any kind. Flow could not have been more perfect. My hand remained happy and relaxed throughout the Road Trip, never asking, "How much further?"
I had such a good time on this Road Trip that when I reached my destination, I still took the pen around the block a few times. I just didn't want to stop writing.
Dan: 8.5 – Driving this pen was a blast. It feels great in the hand and great on paper, too. The heavy, metal cap balances the pen nicely. I never really felt my hand get fatigued during this Road Trip. As I've mentioned before, I tend to hold pens far back on the section near the barrel and on the 88 that spot is pretty large in diameter, which suites me perfectly. I didn't have any issues with grip either, but then my hands were clean and dry the entire the time so I'm sure that helped. The nib and feed performed like a fine tuned engine. I didn't experience any hard starts or skipping but I did notice that after a few minutes the flow settled into a slightly drier state than I prefer. I also noticed that famous Aurora 'feedback' that I've read so much about on forums. Check out the Performance section for more details about that.
Pros: ˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜ Filling system Multiple trim options Construction & quality |
Cons: ˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜ Nib imprint design On the Pricey Side |
Famous Last Words:
Eric: It's simple: If you're looking for a pen to add to your collection or a pen with which to start a collection, the Aurora 88 Large absolutely must be on your short list.
Dan: The Aurora 88 Large is a really great fountain pen for someone looking to make their first big purchase or even for someone who's made many big purchases and is just looking for something different. It's high quality can compete with pens costing several times as much and comes with enough trip options to please most everyone. I would highly recommend this pen anyone. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
This pen was purchased for review.

In a unanimous vote by the AIC Board of Regents, Dr. David Moore has been named president elect of American Indian College. He succeeds current president Dr. David DeGarmo, who tendered his resignation in March. Moore's tenure will begin June 1, 2013.
As the new AIC president, Moore is returning to the post he held previously (1987-1994), during which time the School became the only regionally accredited Christian college serving primarily Native Americans. Prior to his first presidential tenure, Moore served for 13 years at AIC as a faculty member and in various other institutional positions.
For the past five years Moore has served as vice president for institutional relations for the Alliance for Assemblies of God Higher Education. Moore has also served the Assemblies of God Fellowship as Director of Intercultural Ministries, a position in which he had supervised some 400 missionaries to over 50 cultural groups across the United States. Moore has also served as an adjunct professor at Evangel University for the past fourteen years.
Dr. Moore received his undergraduate degree at Evangel University. He holds a doctorate from the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary and has completed coursework for a PhD in Higher Education Administration at the University of Arizona.
According to AIC Vice President of Academic Services Dr. Joe Saggio, "Moore has distinguished himself in the area of American Indian higher education issues, particularly in the areas of financial aid and access to higher education. During his previous time here, Dr. Moore gained a great reputation as a tireless advocate of 'leveling the playing field' and improved the accessibility of educational opportunities for Native American students." As a testimony to Dr. Moore's desire to recognize distinguished Native American church leaders, during his prior tenure at AIC he presided over the construction of two major building projects, the Charles Lee Academic Center and the Rodger Cree Student Union, naming them after renowned Native American leaders.
As a member of the Alliance for AG Higher Education for the past five years, Moore has observed many changes and interactions in Assemblies of God colleges, from the increase in online degree offerings to the growing camaraderie between faculty and staff who serve at the 18 Assemblies of God schools. He understands that higher education is continually evolving, and he will work with members of his staff and faculty to keep AIC a part of this process.
It is Dr. Moore's vision to raise AIC's visibility so that it will become a nationally known institution that serves Native students with excellence.

MESA, Ariz. -- The storm system that moved into Arizona Friday night drenched the Valley on Saturday, not only canceling and delaying major events but also causing significant damage in some areas.
An apartment complex at Alma School Road and Main Street in Mesa was hit particularly hard.
"I thought a freight train drove across the roof," resident Jaynessa Campbell said.
The storm ripped shingles off the roof, uprooted several trees, and flipped over a hot tub.
Residents even reported seeing a funnel cloud, which was one of several sightings across the Valley.
Derek Lard was disappointed to see the tree he has grown up with lying on the ground.
"I have like five or six pictures in front of it," he said. "Me and my friends always hang out by it and stuff."
But residents said they are glad no one was injured.
"We were kind of like, 'What's going on?' But nobody was hurt so we're good," Campbell said.

The offer of petroleum reached the peak.
Raise prices and reduce consumption, that is: kill the poorest ( of course, also with wars) and decrease the job offer (of course: ¡being a soldier is good job!); is the great recommendation for those who only know about money and power. Panama has the solution : The OCEANOGENIC POWER.
Who decides against dismissing this discovery to proceed with the crisis, have the excuse to stop the economy, putting money in banks, and thus achieve increased profits achieved with rising prices for energy and commodities?
That is the folly: ¿When an elitist executive board has changed their decisions without direct intervention of God?
By these means (INTERNET), recently I met unknown details of the dispute between Edison and Tesla, both brains imported to the USA, that today allow us to judge that it was nonsense to gain the market.
The U.S. government chose right thing of both, and this is what makes to a nation great. But the foolishness persists, because it is the common.
Oceanogenic Power, hydropower, cheap, renewable, clean, scalable, enough, and near USA, is the solution for those who seek the truth for love, finds it, and takes advantage of it.

Unemployment benefits extended
EL PASO, TX — President Obama and Congress agreed on Wednesday to extend the Emergency Unemployment Compensation Program for many Americans.
This allows claimants who had an existing claim to receive the remaining benefits in their balance.
It will also allow additional time for claimants to establish a new tier one claim.
Although Congress extended the deadlines to establish a new claim, it did not add additional weeks for claimants who have already exhausted all benefits.
When you exhaust your current benefits, the Texas Workforce Commission will notify you if you are eligible for another program.

The first night we got upgraded to an ensuite room which was nice. However since we left before the staff was there, it meant having to come back earlier than we would've liked to make sure we could get the new key from the staff. Turns out, however, there were no locks or lockers for our second room (dorm style, although it was just the two of us since we booked a twin private). Not a huge problem, but they could have told us earlier so we wouldn't have had to hurry back.

Lot of Final Fantasy in that list there.
Yeah, but this was during that point in time when I was griping about how I might not be able to play FFXIV. Apparently, it's still popular now among people who are thinking of buying the game in countries that aren't supported.
LOL your featured image is…interesting.
I got one of these and a featured image myself. I wonder what the significance is, like, were they the most viewed image or something?
my featured image was the image that i put on my most viewed post, i had assumed that was why. now that i've seen other peoples I guess that's not the case. perhaps you're right, most viewed image?
Probably the most viewed image.
That's supposed to be a still image from the Dante's Inferno anime. She's Beatrice.
I don't think so. I've put images in my shits and they gave me their own, monkey made, image. Weirds!
Yeah, that is weird. :/

CAIRO — A decree issued by Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi giving the military temporary authority to arrest civilians and protect "vital facilities of the state" took effect Monday, as a standoff continued over an upcoming referendum on a controversial draft constitution and more protests were called for Tuesday.
The military's authority will last until the results of the referendum, which is scheduled for Saturday, are announced. The presidential decree effectively gives the military and police joint responsibility for maintaining internal security until then.

Stewart scores 28 in Gold Rush loss at Spring Hill For immediate release . . . January 11, 2007 Box Score MOBILE, Ala. — Xavier University of Louisiana's Mark Stewart tied his career high of 28 points Thursday, but the Gold Rush lost 70-66 to Spring Hill in a Gulf Coast Athletic Conference men's basketball game. Stewart scored 17 points in the second half for Xavier (7-7 overall, 0-4 GCAC), which lost for the fourth straight time and has dropped six of its last seven games. Stewart made seven 3-point field goals, a career high and one less than Percy Bland's 1989 school record. Shaun Dumas scored 13 points for Xavier. Aaron Burgess and Cornelius Kennedy led the Rush with seven rebounds apiece — Kennedy's total was a career high — and Stewart, Dumas, Kennedy and Alfred Williams each had two assists. Cash Covington scored 17 of his 21 points in the second half for Spring Hill (7-3, 3-0), and Marcus Coleman scored 16. Xavier rallied from an 11-point first-half deficit to take a 30-26 lead by halftime. Xavier's next game will start at 3 p.m. Saturday at The Barn against GCAC opponent Loyola. The starting time was moved up four hours to avoid a conflict with the New Orleans Saints' NFL playoff game in the Superdome that night against Philadelphia.
The Xavier Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets compete in Division I of the NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) as a member of the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference (GCAC). Xavier fields men's and women's teams in basketball, cross country and tennis.

confused cant take it NE more
Dr.Barralai is here to help, first off answer these few question (a few for my personal interest and a couple extra to help us figure you out).
1.Have you ever participated in sexual/explicit acts with the ssme sex
2.IF yes, explain (not in grave detial, dont want your porn)
3.Where do you live
4.What is your current state within your family (ie views on gays,any big problems)
5.Have you admited that your gay (to yourself or anyone else, very imporantant)?
6.Do you fantisize about the same sex
7.Do you act gay? (in your opinion)
8.DO you have any questions you need answered?
9.Do you think my typing is sexy?
10.Why dont you have an icon
11.On a scale of 1-10 how cool do I seem?
to be honest there everything u wrote sounds like u want to get in their pants its funny kinda but if u read wut u wrote sounds like it to me.
Getting in someoens pants, counseling them, same difference.
I may sound like a stuffy old man at this point, but dude! He is 11! That is just plain wrong. I know you are 14, but really it's disturbing. Maybe I am just losing touch with what isn acceptable.
that was very hurtful and this not a joke i am Questioning
and im99.9 percent sure i recentley joined this site for help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have sent you a private message. Yes, there are people who do actually care. Write me, privately, any time you want.
i wasn't referring to you as being disturbing, i was referring to the so called "joke" of children getting into one another's pants as being disturbing. personally, i don't find the idea of young children fucking to be at all amusing even if it's meant as a joke. but hey, that's just my opinion. there, that's all the defending of myself that i will do publicly so if anyone has a problem they'll just have to find some other way to bitch at me
Was a joke, I dont even know this guy. You taking this to seriously I was trying to help as it seems he may still be confused about his Sexuality.
Since yall seem to be a tad retarded let me explain the purpose of my quesionts
1.Have you ever participated in sexual/explicit acts with the ssme sex
-Many men participate in sex with other men, and later identify as striat
2.IF yes, explain (not in grave detial, dont want your porn)
-Prolly not the best to ask but i still did
3.Where do you live
-Ie The Bible Belt, not his f'ing address
4.What is your current state within your family (ie views on gays,any big problems)
-Self explannitory
5.Have you admited that your gay (to yourself or anyone else, very imporantant)?
-Self explannitory
6.Do you fantisize about the same sex
-Again helping him decide if he's gay
7.Do you act gay? (in your opinion)
-Obviously he doesnt want to people to find out, just wanted to know if he needed help flying under tha gaydar
8.DO you have any questions you need answered?
-Self Explaintory
9.Do you think my typing is sexy?
-Someone had pointed it out once, just thought i'd ask
10.Why dont you have an icon
-I wanted to know
11.On a scale of 1-10 how cool do I seem?
-Again i just wanted to know.
very nice set of questions. The young people
now seem confused or afraid of what they are.
I am older, and haven't had a problem with who
I am. Just be glad that you CAN be you.
I kno where ur comin from and I kno the conffused feeling. So when u think about people u like do u genrally look for guys or girls? Can u see urself with a person of the same sex? Do u want to be with someone of the same sex? Who r u more affraid of same sex of oppisite sex? Just something to help u decided. if it turns out that the odds r even maybe ur bi.
yeah i see what your sayin i have a crush on this straigt guy ps how old are you?Dazed and Oh so confused
I don't mean to make you feel bad, but I don't think you're quite at the age to know for certain what your sexuality is. You might want to wait until you're about 13, and things become a little more clear.
"Sometimes a little brain damage helps."
-- George Carlin
i am 12 and i likey the boys and i feel like i am coming out a little bit more everyday.help me also ^___^ :(
as long as you feel comfortable with what you
are doing, there is nothing wrong with it. Don't
let others make you afraid. If you and a friend
get together to have fun, just enjoy it.

What would Reagan do if he were president now? Where would he stand on today's issues? Who is the next Reagan? Kengor answers to some of these questions may surprise conservatives and liberals alike.
In his memoir, Barack Obama omits the full name of his mentor, simply calling him "Frank." Now, the truth is out: Never has a figure as deeply troubling and controversial as Frank Marshall Davis had such an impact on the development of an American president.

Proper aging makes all the difference with wine. Many wine lovers rarely experience the nuance, flavor and balance that cellaring brings to a well-made wine. Empyrean cellars it's wine to enrich it's wine with the bold, balanced flavor that every wine lover adores.
It's simply a fact that even the finest wine is typically consumed within days of purchase, often well before the wine even begins to reach its peak. Because we want our customers to experience our wines at their best, we cellar them with the utmost care, sometimes for several years.
Our wines are released only when we believe they have begun to express the subtle beauty only that proper aging can achieve, and not a moment sooner. We encourage you to taste this difference for yourself, with EmpyreanWines.
Empyrean is a small label, devoted to handcrafting, meticulous in attention to detail, and committed to proper cellaring before the release of any wine. Quantities are necessarily limited.
Our goal is to make wines that combine the bold flavors of New World fruit and terroir with an Old World sense of balance, proportion and harmony. This can only be achieved with proper and skillful blending of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc in our Draco and Eridanus labels.
Empyrean Wines Releases 2002 Draco and Eridanus Blends, 2002 Cygnus syrah, May 12th, 2010. Our release event will be held on May 13th, 2010.
Empyrean Wines commences with work towards planting its Estate Vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA of Oregon, May 2010. Empyrean Wines Supports the Post Oak School Gala and Auction, 2011. Empyrean Wines is pleased to support the Post Oak School Gala and Auction in 2011 with wine donations and an auction lot of wines. Empyrean Wines, tasting and 2002 vintage release open-house event will be held at Nos Caves Vins, in Houston, Texas on Thursday, May 13th from 5pm until 9pm.

Maintenance of ion concentration gradients is essential for the function of many organs, including the kidney, the cornea, and the inner ear. Ion concentrations and fluid content in the cornea are regulated by endothelial cells that separate the collagenous avascular corneal stroma from the anterior eye chamber. Failure to maintain correct ion concentrations leads to swelling and destruction of the cornea. In the inner ear, the stria vascularis is responsible for generating proper ion concentrations in the endolymph, which is essential for hearing. Mutations of SLC4A11 in humans lead to syndromes associated with corneal dystrophy and perceptive deafness. The molecular mechanisms underlying these symptoms are poorly understood, impeding therapeutic interventions. The ion transporter SLC4A11 mediates sodium-dependent transport of borate as well as flux of sodium and hydroxyl ions in vitro. Here, we show that SLC4A11 is expressed in the endothelial cells of the cornea where it prevents severe morphological changes of the cornea caused by increased sodium chloride concentrations in the stroma. In the inner ear, SLC4A11 is located in fibrocytes underlying the stria vascularis. Loss of SLC4A11 leads to morphological changes in the fibrocytes and deafness. We demonstrate that SLC4A11 is essential for the generation of the endocochlear potential but not for regulation of potassium concentrations in the endolymph. In the kidney, SLC4A11 is expressed in the thin descending limb of Henle loop. SLC4A11 is essential for urinary concentration, suggesting that SLC4A11 participates in the countercurrent multiplication that concentrates urine in the kidney medulla.

Such a simple, delicious, cookie! Love it!
I'm back!!! Back from the honeymoon. A few pounds heavier and whole lot tanner. Is tanner even a word? Okay well let's just pretend it is for today. The vacay was perfect. We literally did nothing except eat wonderful Mexican food all week, drink lots and lots of specialty margaritas, lay out, play in the pool, walk on the beach and relax. Oh… and we went stand up paddle boarding.
Now if you guys know me personally, you know that I am deathly afraid of sharks. I mean I live in Los Angeles for crying out loud. I'm 10 minutes from 4 different beaches and I won't even so much as venture into the ocean with my pinkie toe. The sharks are out there. And they are coming for me. So when Thomas signed us up for a paddle boarding excursion, it's safe to say that I had nightmares the whole night leading up to the event about being attacked by a shark.
I know. I'm weird. And a total scaredy cat. It's just the way I roll. But I decided to go for it and be brave. And I promised myself that if I fell while stand up paddle boarding, I would do everything in my power to fall on TOP of the board and not go face first into the water. If it meant ditching my designer sunglasses on the way down, so be it. But I was not about to fall into the ocean. And then when the moment actually came to get in the water, I did it and guess what. I was actually really good at stand up paddling!! I did the whole 2 hour excursion without falling into the water once. I fell onto my board a few times. But I kept my limbs and my sunglasses and that's basically all that matters. You still couldn't pay me enough money to get into the water here in California because it's dark and murky and I can't see what's underneath me, but I'm cool to get into the sparkling blue water in Mexico.
Anyways, more on the honeymoon later.
Let's talk about cookies.
I mean I think it's safe to say that I've pretty much covered the cookie realm. I love me a good chewy cookie. Anything that's slightly undercooked in the middle is the name of the game. Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. And now that the wedding is over, and I don't have a wedding dress to squeeze into, I can eat cookies again!!
I whipped up a big batch of these peanut butter oatmeal cookies before the wedding to bring to lots of people who helped me out in the process of wedding planner! My jeweler, my friends, some of my vendors, and of course my family. They were a hit to say the least. Easy to make too! Cookies are the best because it's just a simple little ratio and you can adjust it as needed! For example these call for brown sugar only. But you could split it up and do 50/50 with brown and white sugar. Or go with just white sugar! It's just going to affect how dark the cookies turn out and give the cookie a little more depth with the more brown sugar you use. But you get the idea, right?
If I had kids, I'd make them a batch of these and stick them in their school lunches. But I don't have kids, nor will I for a few years, so I guess I'll just have to keep making cookies and eating them myself. It's a tough job. Someones gotta do it.

Such a simple, delicious, cookie! Love it!
Perfection in a cookie! I'll definitely be making these soon. I'm glad you survived your paddleboarding adventure!
I will take a dozen please!
We love anything "peanut butter" in our home! I'll be making these today for an after school snack for my little guy. Thank you for sharing!
These look so great Gaby! I'm with you on the sharks.
I feel the same way about dark and murky waters. *shivers* Love the cookies! My girls will have fun making them!
I've had peanut butter cookies on my mind lately, and I think you just convinced me to make them. I might even add some chocolate chips in there Will definitely be making a version of these gluten-free!
Hilarious! I have the exact same shark phobia! I had a nightmare that a killer whale was chasing me. In Lake Michigan. I woke up hyperventilating. Total panic. I once went scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef and spent the entire time swimming in tight circles, convinced that a shark was going to sneak up on me.
Mmmmm. I love underbaked cookies and I think it will make these even more delicious than they sound. Paddle boarding is the bomb!
Welcome back! Your wedding pictures were stunning… and these cookies look like classic perfection!
These look great!! I feel the same way about sharks – I'm so terrified and a big baby about it! haha
Great combo! Back to the real world now
Yay! I love a simple, hearty cookie recipe.
Ok… excuse me… before I talk about these cookies, I need to address those margaritas. You now have me craving a week of drunken nothingness. How lovely that sounds!
And, yeah, I'll take a plate of these cookies too.
this is exactly how I like my cookies!! btw – welcome back!!!
Welcome back! These cookies look just wonderful.
Congrats again Gaby!!! I had to laugh at your story about being afraid of sharks…. growing up, both of my boys eagerly looked forward to the end of summer in Catalina and the return of the Leopard sharks – which are totally harmless BTW.
Yeah for eating cookies… and these look like the perfect ones to start with!!
Sounds like you had a terrific time – perfect! Wishing you and Thomas all the best in your new life together. Lucky guy gets to have awesome cookies like this all the time.
Welcome back!! The honeymoon sounds dreamy, i would love to go paddle boarding one day soon! my fiance and I are planning a honeymoon to Puerto Rico in April/May! Hopefully we can go then! BTW, a wedding dress wouldn't stop me from eating these cookies, haha! too delicious!
Usually I'm pretty meh about oatmeal cookies, but adding peanut butter to them sounds so much better!
i want one now!!
Isn't it just the worst job in the world, to have to eat all that yummy food you've made?
I love peanut butter cookies, and the oatmeal makes them healthy!!!?
I've seen people paddle boarding but haven't tried it myself – so glad you did and had fun (and avoided any sharks!). These cookies look great!
I can almost smell them! Sigh….
I'm wondering how these would taste with whole wheat flour…or maybe half all purpose and half whole wheat.
What can I sub for the butter? Maybe coconut oil? I'm not a user of butter.

These are delicious! Thank you for the terrific recipe. I used whole wheat white flour, coconut palm sugar (a little less than a cup), and some extra peanut butter. These went fast, they're so good! (I blogged them here.
Hands down the best peanut butter cookie I've ever made. I made my own brown sugar by mixing a tbsp of molasses with white sugar. Next time I'm going to use half whole wheat flour and half all purpose. Thanks so much for a fantastic recipe!
Promise to keep a secret? I made a batch of your cookies for my guys but subbed all sorghum flour so that if my daughter visited (who is gluten intolerant) she could have some too. They ate the whole batch without suspecting! I am making them another batch this weekend and going to add in some peanut butter chips that need to be used. Thank you for the recipe!
I've inquired about the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, the oatmeal M&M cookie and now the oatmeal peanut butter cookie, how many calories are in one cookie? Thank you.
Is the dough suppose to be on the runny side?
These are fantastic! I only had quick oats on hand so I used that and added some chocolate chips.
Baked them 15 minutes and Yummo! Made 18 generous size cookies.
My husband I loved them! Thanks so much!
Hi, i was just wondering about one of the steps as this is my first time baking cookies… after placing them on the baking tray, do i have to flatten the dough or does it spread out on its own while in the oven? Thanks!
Just made these yesterday. SO good. I used crunchy peanut butter and added raisins. My three year old dubbed them peanut butter and jelly cookies.
Making these now. I added pecans. Thanks.
