exoneration of Trooper Wyrick, it's unfortunate the state can not bill him for the costs of the investigation. He very clearly misrepresented the facts; he was not candid and honest; he was clearly beligerant and confrontational. Read the investigative report. The investigating officers inspected the "parking lot"; reviewed all of the video tapes; nd interviewed everyone involved. That was not a cheap investigation. »

Recycled Water Pack Cosmetic Bag
Roll over image to zoom in
Outlet! Was $14.80!
Real beauty is more than just outside appearance -- it's doing the right thing for yourself, others, and the planet. And few cosmetic bags help express that deeper beauty like this one...made from recycled water sachets to send a message about the global challenge of plastic packaging and solid waste management.
Finding value in seemingly valueless materials, the makers of these innovative bags pride themselves on low-energy recycling solutions for the countless drink packets discarded everywhere around Ghana. Due to its ubiquitous presence and indiscriminate disposal in the streets of Ghana, the plastic sachet is recognized regionally as a potent symbol of the solid waste problems faced by the nation. The millions of discarded plastic sachets that are collected by the Trashy Bags group are triple-washed, disinfected, then dried before being turned into durable and eye-catching bags.
- 100% recycled plastic drink containers
- Main compartment divided into 3 sections
- Zip closure on top
- 6" T x 9" W x 2.5" D (15.2 x 22.9 x 6.4 cm)
- Handmade in and fairly traded from Ghana

Artisan: Trashy Bags
"Every bag that we sell is an opportunity to educate the public about their environment and their responsibility to keep it clean for the good of humanity and of the planet's ecosystems as a whole."
Due to a rising population and an infrastructure that is inadequate to handle the waste that's produced, the nation of Ghana is struggling with issues concerning solid waste management, and as a result, streets, drains, and landfills are overflowing with trash. As is the case with most places in the world, much of this trash could be recycled, but isn't due to a general lack of education, recycling resources, and individual responsibility. One man, armed with a devoted team of over 60 workers, has set out to change this. Stuart A. Gold, a British citizen living in Ghana, is the director of Trashy Bags, an innovative company devoted to creating beautiful products out of what most people would consider garbage.
The company encourages the people of Ghana to collect the millions of discarded plastic sachets and other reusable packaging and bring them to Trashy Bag's facilities, where they are paid a fee per batch of materials. This allows people who would otherwise be out of a job to earn money, acts as a form of supplemental income for others, and encourages the people of Ghana to clean up the streets. Once the plastic is received it is washed three times, disinfected, dried, sorted, and eventually sewn into bags by the 60-plus full-time employees of Trashy Bags. Each finished bag is then packaged with an educational leaflet informing the public of the dangers of littering, and encouraging them to reduce, reuse, and recycle. The effects of cleaning the streets of Ghana are vital and far reaching -- in a country where malaria is still prevalent in poorer households, cleaning up clogged and dirty drains (breeding grounds for mosquitoes) -- is literally a life-saving practice.

Continue ReadingWhat: Siblings of children with a chronic illness or disability are often asked to balance their own life, needs, and desires with the demands imposed on the family by the diagnosis. For some, this means the perception of coming in second to medical appointments or other therapeutic regiments and interventions at home, school or in the community. For others, it might include worries about the future and feelings of anger and guilt. Continue Reading
HALIFAX, NS – Anticipation and excitement are experienced by parents when they find out they are expecting a new baby. For most families, this means looking forward to the delivery of their baby around their given due date and soon thereafter settling into a routine at home with their healthy baby. But this isn't always the experience, and for those parents whose child is born too early, the road home can be a long one.

Residents of Chennai may soon be in for a reprieve from the searing heat as light rains are likely over the next two or three days.
A trough over Sri Lanka is expected to bring considerable rainfall to southern Tamil Nadu and north coastal districts till Friday.
Over the past couple of days, while the temperature during daytime did not shot up alarmingly, noon was an entirely different matter, said residents. L. Anuradha, a resident of Anna Nagar, said: "My daughter's classes now begin at noon due to the board exams. It gets really hot by noon when I go to drop her at school."
On Tuesday however, the climate was relatively cool due to showers in other parts of the State, including Vedaranyam and Ramanathapuram, on Monday. Nungambakkam recorded 31.5 degree celsius, one degree below the average, and Meenambakkam registered the normal of 32.4 degree celsius.
Officials of the meteorological department said that Chennai does not get much rainfall during March. This would be a welcome burst of rain for the State that has been rain-starved for some time.
Summer rains or thunderstorms usually begin only in mid-April as easterlies turn to westerly winds. More rains influenced by convective activity and increasing radiation will occur as summer approaches. May is when the city experiences maximum amount of summer rain.
Unlike interior parts of the State that are already bearing the brunt of summer, coastal areas including Chennai, have it easier as the incoming radiation is less thanks to prevailing easterly winds. This is why the temperature has remained close to normal so far, said Y.E.A. Raj, deputy director general of meteorology, Regional Meteorological Centre, Chennai.
Foggy and misty conditions also prevail in the city due to this reason. The last time Chennai received good rains in March was in 2008 when nearly 14 cm of rain was received. That year, the city received 7 cm of rain on a single day.
Officials of the meteorological department said that weather models indicate an increase in rainfall till Friday. Rain or thundershowers are likely to occur in some parts of the city.

Kaptein.... I have seen the T copter thread that got a bit nasty on rcgroups and I have a very clever friend here in the UK who independantly has been building a T. Both projects seem to be based on the scope of heavy lift. Is that why you ventured into this layout ? Or just because you could? Has anyone run a KK in conjunction with a DOSD+v2 yet? All the new features that have been added to it recently means that I think its a fairly easy and relatively inexpensive way to get gps and by next week waypoints etc.... Thats my plan anyhow.... But my Tri is on hold whilst I set the DOSD up in my twinstar first (any cock ups on my part will be cushioned by the luxury of a glide before a thump!! Would be interested to hear anyone elses thoughts regards Paul |

How do I fix...
Tricopter with motor to center 21". TH V6 board. Tri V1.5 software. Have gain on all 3 pots all the way to max, but I'm not getting symptoms of high gain, rather that I don't have enough gain. Turned pots all the way down(CCW) and it's for sure low gain. I have looked at the TriCopterV1_5.asm and think that changing PotScaleRoll & PotScalePitch might do what I want. I changed from the default value of 10 down to 9 for both but didn't see any difference. I'm using AVR Studio. Do I have to do something different here before I upload or same as normal upload. Suggestions please... Bill |

I think everybody is hearing what he wants to hear .
But i assume that these sounds are only the air hammer sounds from the nearby junkyard (seen on kapteinkuks pan/tilt video). I've seen this technic of metal separation at a local junkyard and it makes exactly these sounds regards jjk ps: My diploma theses is ready and now i could start to build my own tricopter |
Sep 07, 2010, 03:35 AM | ||
I lost count of which software that has the arm/dis-arm feature. Please see Bob's post. Regarding the voltage values, they are not affected by the software version. If you're turning the pots, only the middle pin's voltage changes. The number seems too low. The voltage at the right pin of the pot (look from top) or voltage of C11 should be around 1.6v and middle pin of the pots when pots are in the middle is supposed to be around 0.8v. If not, you should check the resistor R9 & R10. -Thanh |

Good Friday Report
Bill A was out skiing today and had the following to say about it.
There is still an amazing amount of snow at Black Mt! Coverage on the north ridge of Presque Isle side is especially good. More bare spots to tip toe around on Cheb Co side. Had a very enjoyable classic ski out there today, with the added bonus of running into Allen Sorgenfrei who was skating like a rocket, and later skiing with Tracy Hardin. Suggest rock skis, just to be on the safe side.

Well it has been one of the longest grooming seasons. But it has come to an end. The equipment was picked up and moved to it's summer storage. We need some snow on the ground to be able to load the equipment onto a trailer. So things are thawing quickly at the Buffs so it had to be this week.
There is still plenty of skiing to be had on Black Mountain. The snow will be there for some time to come.,,

Saturday Grooming Effort
Went out from the Bluffs this a.m., covered those predicted areas mentioned in last night's "What if" tentative report for this a.m.
However, was not able to reset new tracks, so it is just skate lanes that are refreshed with no new tracks set.
Last grooming was this past Wednesday. This a.m., there were no visible signs of anyone having skied classic or skated since then. There were no pole plant impressions along the tracks I set on Wednesday. Nor were there any sign of anyone skatiing since.
So today those same areas have refreshed combed surfaces, but with no new track set.
Had to stop constantly to knock ice balls out of the track drives even at 24 deg, due to yesterday's rain having saturated the trail base with rain water. Also stopped to pick up alot of new wind-blown limbs & tree trash.
Today may have been the last grooming, depending on what happens in the next couple of days.
The snow base is plenty deep, more than I've seen in recent years. Being able to manage that depth in spring conditions in another thing ~
Observed several skiers out there enjoying their Spring skiing day.
Grooming Saturday ???
Snow blowing around here for several hours, looking like mid-winter again~
Not sure how today's earlier rain at 33 deg. affected the trails before it turned to snow.
IF it gets & stays cold enough early Saturday a.m. for the snow pack to support the groomer's weight without Blazer tracks sinking in too deep like it did Wednesday, I'll take another shot at doing some grooming wherever possible. Most areas the snow is still 2 ft deep out there.
Might try going out the hilly side of Bluffs loop, down to Twin Lakes & back......up the long hill past the Cheboygan shelter, across the ridge (bypassing the black hill turnouts), do the upper triangle & rollercoaster loops. If it looks possible, will try going down around the Presque Isle shelter, across to #11 & back up to the rollercoasters......like I did on Wednesday.
All of the above is just guesswork up for grabs...depending on whether conditions will allow without sinking in or clumping ice balls in that older set of track drives on the Blue Blazer. If temps actually stay below 27 long enough to get that much done, maybe it will work.
If not, there may be enough new snow for anyone interested to just get out there and ski back in the tracks I set on Wednesday, assuming they'll be visible. If I can do two laps to include skate lanes & set new track on second pass, will do.
If you go and don't find fresh grooming, that probably means I tried but these Spring conditions didn't allow.
I am not sure how many are still interested in skiing at this point of day-to-day?

Sorry for the late update, been traveling.
Jim did some grooming the other day. His report is below.
Jim did some grooming the other day. His report is below.
Wednesday a.m. grooming wasn't working due to 2 inch thick slabs of solid crust bridging over the softer underneath deep depth of softened corn snow.
Later--4:00 p.m., 34 degrees, left for the Bluffs to try when surface was softer with hopes of setting a track. Bluffs driveway is broken up, muddy gravel & large puddles, icy ruts......it's called Spring Break-up.
Later--4:00 p.m., 34 degrees, left for the Bluffs to try when surface was softer with hopes of setting a track. Bluffs driveway is broken up, muddy gravel & large puddles, icy ruts......it's called Spring Break-up.
Meanwhile, the temp had disappointingly risen to 40 deg starting out from the Bluffs around 5:00 p.m.
We have had too many warm days in a row lately, which is adversely affecting trail's ability to support our equipment.
Went out the Bluffs loop flat side, across the ridge, bypassing the hill turnouts, across the road, around the upper triangle loop & rollercoasters. Then went back down from marker #16 past the Presque Isle shelter, taking the #12 cut-off across to #11, and back up to the rollercoasters. Set a track on the second pass around.
Grooming result was a mix bag of just about everything...including alot of tree trash, all those wind-blown leaves that were buried in the last snowfall are exposed again in most areas.
The weight of the equipment was sinking more on every pass, especially where we had earlier blows with alot of deep drifting this winter. This required keeping a death grip on the wheel, with the outer front tracks randomly & suddenly sinking a foot, making it very hard to steer & not to get sucked off the trail edges into the trees. Found out snow has become very porous corn beneath, apparently thawing from the ground up in places. This gave the impression of riding in a boat undulatiing over waves.
Repeated passes over the same areas resulted in sinking even more with each pass, so the skate lane is still a mixed bag of dirty tricks. Tracks are set full depth with alot of leaves, twigs, bark all smushed into them.
Gave up on the idea of going down to the south end PI parking lot after having several narrow escapes nearly getting sucked off the trail. Stopping to knock ice balls out of those older track pods wasn't helping.
** If I were looking for best skating, I would choose time of day to skate crust wherever you have it at home or nearby fields.
Dog hikers had been out postholing down the middle when it was warm & soft, hard to cover those.

Saturday Grooming
Still plenty of skiing left on Black mountain.
Jim was out this morning and filed this report.
Jim was out this morning and filed this report.
Left home 8:00 a.m. at 20 deg to go groom some trails.
Got to the Bluffs, it was already 30 deg. there.
Went out with Blue to see what could be done, hoping to avoid clumping in the track drives.
It worked well enough with tranformed snow & by going faster than normal, setting full depth tracks on both sides of the Bluffs look, down to Twin Lakes & back, up the long hill past Cheboygan shelter, across the road, including all 4 black hill turnouts, upper triangle & rollercoaster loop. All has set track but not groomed full width for skating. It was too warm to be skating by then anyway. Saw several skiers out on classic skis. It was 36 deg. when I got back to the Bluffs, all in the nick of time.

Jennifer Lawrence had to do a lot of training to prepare for her upcoming movie, The Hunger Games, but the actress says she refuses to go on a diet.
"I don't diet. I do exercise! But I don't diet. You can't work when you're hungry, you know?" she said.
When Lawrence does train, she really trains. To prepare for the movie, the actress got some help from an Olympian archer.
"It was just training, training, training. There was a lot of running. I've asked that the second movie have us walk in some scenes!" Lawrence said. "I was trained by an Olympian in archery. Unfortunately, I'm never really in real-life situations where I can use it."

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
SB 1476 (Leno) passed through the Assembly and is now awaiting approval by the State Senate. SB 1476, which would amend and add to the Family Code, would permit a court, in appropriate cases, to find that a child has more than two legal parents.
Current law allows a child to have only two legal parents. SB 1476 would allow a court to determine that a child has more than two natural or adoptive parents if it is "required to serve the best interests of the child." The court, in determining the best interests of the child, looks to the nature, duration, and quality of the presumed parents' relationship with the child, and the benefit or detriment to the child of continuing those relationships. If the child has more than two legal parents, not all parents are required to share legal or physical custody of that child.
The determination that a child has more than two parents has potential ramifications for school districts as well. Obviously districts are required with certain parental notification and participation requirements, from notifying parents of IEP meetings, to school choice, to providing student records. Involving more than two parents in this process is something that may come about if SB 1476 is chaptered into law. Currently, Education Code section 51101 discussed parental rights relating to their child's education. More information about SB 1476 can be accessed here.

Recruiting is bad because the players who can do this content with all it's complexity and manage their characters with their increasing complexity are limited. Ergo reduce the complexity of both and you'll have more potential raiders to recruits. The two go hand in hand. Your little list of stuff ignores all the stuff that players potentially struggle with (hell playing their class is so god damn bloated now compared to what it was in previous expansions) and the complexity fights only exacerbates this. Even the developers have admitted this. I don't understand why it's still an argument?
Yes I know everything is easy It's the players who are bad. Well good luck to you trying to recruit. Fights are to difficult whether or not you chose to see it. This should have never been a matter for opinion or debate. Unless you want raiding to die.

OP here.
I watched Frozen a week before it was officially released so I went in with a blank slate. I'm also a HUGE Disney fanatic and many have accused me of being biased because I dislike most Dreamworks attempts (except for Kung Fu Panda and How To Train Your Dragon... and I enjoyed Rise of the Guardians and Monsters vs Aliens).
I was entertained. But I also walked out feeling taken advantage of. Story is EVERYTHING and the plot points in this movie are not natural. They are manufactured, poorly I might add, to hit whatever song was written.
The filmmakers originally had Elsa be a villain in the film, which, even though it has been done, would have worked as a redemption story. Then the songwriters turned in "Let it Go". Instead of having the song writers support the story they were telling, the filmmakers rewrote the entire script to keep the song. That's the biggest red flag if I've ever seen one.
For one, each of these Princess films has an "I want" moment. We never really see what Elsa is going through. We see her upset and ignoring Anna... but we never get the sense that she hates her life and she hates that she has these powers. When "Let it Go" finally happens, it's not an "I want" moment but rather "I'm doing this even though I never expressed that I wanted it" moment. She's letting it all out... but is she really? She's still hiding. To me, "Let it Go" isn't big enough of a moment for me. She didn't earn it. It was given to her.
Freezing the town is supposed to be one of the pivotal moments in the film that sets all of it in motion. But... Elsa does it by accident. Whoops! Where's the motivation behind ANYTHING in this movie? She got scared and she blasts a few bits of ice.... there really should be something else here that triggers the freezing of an entire kingdom shouldn't there? She has stated many times in the film that she doesn't want to hurt anyone. Maybe she should... I dunno... accidentally hurt someone? Her fear of that could cause her emotions to go into some sort of meltdown, causing her to freeze uncontrollably. In fear of doing more damage and actually hurting more people, she should run. The freezing shouldn't come AFTER she runs away.
And Anna's big "I want" moment is to actually meet a dude! And not only does she meet a dude, but they sing about how much they're in love with each other! Is this film really as progressive as people say it is?
"For the First Time in Forever" as well as "Love is an Open Door" is actually nothing more than misdirection. They want you to believe in this love only to pull the rug from underneath you later. The Duke of Weaselton, not really a villain though questionable intentions, is also inserted to misguide you from thinking any ill-will of Hans.
Hans, for being the evil plotter that he is, does many things that would contradict his plans. And besides, if you're 13th in line, marrying a cute princess is not a bad consolation prize!
Kristoff... yeah... raised by trolls... that's maybe the most obvious "WTF" moment in the film. I'm all for him discovering the trolls and becoming life long friends, but... FAMILY? So weird and unnecessary. And he's also still doing the ice merchant business... with those other guys who... weren't his family right? They just let this orphan kid come along?
Anna and Elsa's parents. Poor them. Not since Cinderella was death of parent(s) so unemotional. Think of Bambi's mom, Mufasa, even Tarzan's parents had a more meaningful death. But the King and Queen needed to be removed from the story in order for Elsa to become queen. Too bad it wasn't done in a good storytelling way. IF the King and Queen were on a quest to find Elsa a cure, maybe Elsa could become even more guilt-ridden about concealing her powers and thus, ignoring Anna further. As the film is now, Elsa already ignores Anna the same amount as she did before her parents died, so that death played an even lesser importance than it should have.
Finally, Anna's quest after the kingdom is frozen. This is a kingdom, btw, that DOES have snowy winters. It's proven in the early scenes in the film. Why make a kingdom that KNOWS what winter is like go through an eternal winter? It should be a kingdom like Sunny Southern California that wouldn't know what to do if it started to snow!
But anyway... Anna, chases after her sister to "talk to her and fix the frozen winter problem". I'm sorry.. "talk" to her sister? This is the same sister that has ignored her all of her life? There's no drama here. Anna would be more heroic if she went up the mountain reluctantly only to try and save her kingdom. But no, she thinks going up the mountain willy nilly will fix it all. It's just uninteresting as a character to develop nothing. She's the same character from the start of the movie to the very end. It would be more satisfying to see her attempt this impossible mission without realizing the outcome.
As for the end, we always knew that Anna loved her sister Elsa. We could easily predict throughout the film that she WOULD risk her life for her. What would be less predictable if Elsa was even crueler from the start. To make that love more questionable. It would be a more satisfying end for Elsa to see just how much her sister loves her despite all the challenges and hardships she put her through. Afterall, it isn't Anna's frozen heart that needed healing... it was Elsa's.
Sorry, that was long. Thanks to those who read it. I just think this film has so much more potential. It's certainly a fixer upper.

Hartmann: county-level crime lab a "luxury item"; for Pete's sake, new MLB commissioner may reconsider ban; Kasich budget will double drug treatment funding for Ohio inmates
Morning y'all. Here's what's going on in Cincy and the wider world today.Is a county-level crime lab a luxury item? That's a comment Hamilton County Commissioner Greg Hartmann made yesterday during the annual "state of the county" speech attended by many high-level county officials. Hartmann made the statement in response to a question about moving the county's morgue and crime lab to a vacant hospital in Mount Airy. We checked out the alarming condition of the morgue and crime lab in December. Most, including county commissioners, agree that Hamilton County's crime lab and morgue are outdated and that the county will soon need to find new options for both. But they say moving to the Mount Airy hospital would be prohibitively expensive, and they've paused the idea as they look for private partners to go in on the $100 million retrofitting project. Hartmann argues that a regional crime lab put together by several counties in the region would be a more efficient option. But his comments continue a long-running rift between conservative commissioners and Hamilton County Coroner Lakshmi Sammarco, who called the statement ridiculous. "A luxury? As in maybe his fancy cars that are maybe a luxury?" Sammarco said. "Name one person in this county that thinks public safety is a luxury item. Public safety is not a luxury." • Did flaws in demolition plans for the old Hopple Street offramp over I-75 cause its collapse last month? Some experts think so, though Kokosing Construction, the company hired on a $91 million contract to carry out the demolition, contests that. According to The Cincinnati Enquirer, last minute changes were made to the demolition efforts as detailed in plans acquired through public information requests. Those changes, an independent expert says, could have caused the bridge failure that killed one construction worker, injured a truck driver and shut down southbound I-75 for hours. The expert says some calculations in the plan were flawed; Kokosing says they were checked by multiple experienced technicians. Experts have also criticized the wider method by which the bridge was being demolished, saying that the middle section should have been removed first. • After a quarter century, will Pete Rose finally be eligible to enter the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame? New MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred may open a window for the 73-year-old to enter the hall after all. Rose, who was banned from baseball in 1989 after he was caught gambling, holds the all-time record for hits in the MLB with 4,256. Fans have actively campaigned for Rose to be reinstated, but outgoing commissioner Bud Selig was steadfast in his refusal to allow Rose back. Manfred, however, says he'll be having conversations with Rose and his attorneys about the possibility. • John Crawford, Jr., the father of the young man shot by police while holding a toy gun in a Beavercreek Walmart in August, is still struggling with the incident and the loss of his son, he says in an op-ed published in the Hamilton Journal-News today. John Crawford III lived in neighboring Fairfield. Crawford III, 22, was killed in the Walmart after another shopper called 911 to report him brandishing a weapon. It turned out to be a pellet gun sold in the store. Security footage doesn't show Crawford handling the toy in a threatening manner, though officers said he was ordered to drop it several times. A grand jury declined to indict Officer Sean Williams, who shot Crawford. "John lll was an amazing father, loving son and awesome friend," Crawford, Jr. says in the piece. "He was just starting to discover who he was, what his passion was, what he wanted to pursue in life and now he's gone. It makes no sense to me how a simple trip to Walmart ended in the death of my son. I was further shocked when a grand jury refused to indict the officer responsible for my son's slaying. But now, six months after this horrific tragedy, we want the world to know just how much we love and miss him."Crawford, Jr. goes on to advocate for new laws that could prevent future tragedies, including new requirements for toy weapons in stores like Walmart. Crawford, who lives in Tennessee, has been active in seeking justice for his son, showing up at rallies, including a recent teach-in in Cincinnati, and filing a lawsuit against the Beavercreek Police Department.• More about Kasich's new budget proposal: Under the suggested two-year budget, funding for prison-based addiction services will double, and the state will spend $58 million more on community-based sentencing options that could keep some first time offenders out of prison. These reforms are designed to cut down on Ohio's prison population and expenditures over time. Studies suggest up to 80 percent of Ohio's prison population has a history of drug abuse. Currently, only 15 to 20 percent of Ohio inmates receive drug addiction treatment, however.• Finally, the economy added more than 257,000 jobs last month, according to job reports released today. That marks the 11th straight month job growth has been above 200,000, a streak that hasn't been seen in more than two decades. In a rare moment of agreement, both the White House (well, duh) and high-ranking GOP officials applauded the news. Of course, the Republican response came with the requisite grousing about how the job gains weren't good enough. "We're thankful to see that Americans were able to go back to work in January," said GOP Chairman Reince Priebus. "But before the White House spikes the football, they need to come to terms with a troubling fact: There are millions of Americans who are struggling to find jobs."Going unmentioned in the politics is a big cause for concern: Despite growth in the number of jobs available, wages for workers have remained stagnant, meaning that the economic recovery is still tepid and incomplete for many across the country.

I Just Can't Get Enough
Jac's roundup of pop culture news and Internet findings
Peter Pan Live! took over TVs last week and it wasn't nearly as messy as last year's live spectacle, The Sound of Music, but I'm still confused about a very feminine woman (Allison Williams) playing a boyish man — and so are the folks at SNL. More on that later. Marnie did a fine job and Christopher Walken was, well, Christopher Walken, but Jane Krakowski's interpretation of Peter Pan would have been truly outstanding. Last week I wrote about the other big TV spectacular du jour, Eaten Alive on Discovery Channel. Basically, for weeks the network teased us with the promise that nature-type Paul Rosolie baited a giant anaconda into eating him alive (while wearing a special safety suit, oxygen and a camera), all for us viewers at home to watch — only he didn't. After an hour and 45 minutes of build-up, dude tapped out after only a portion of his head inside the snake for, like three seconds. Understandable outrage spilled onto Twitter. I mean, how long until I can turn on basic cable and watch a man get killed on live television?In Case You Missed It: Charlie Hustle is hawking Sketchers now. In this commercial (which apparently debuted a couple months ago but I just recently saw), Pete "The Relaxer" Rose touts the brand's new comfy shoe line and pokes fun of the whole Hall of Fame ban. Also, great cameo from his glamorous wife Kiana. I miss seeing her on TV. Queen Bey and King Hov hung out with their British equivalents at a Nets game this week. Prince William and Duchess Kate took a royal tour of NYC, complete with a visit to the Empire State building, some chill time with LeBron James (they even got a tiny Cavs jersey for baby George) and a quick Illuminati meet-up with the Carter Dynasty. Kate, give the people what they want, already. No, not a prime baby bump pic — a "7/11" video reenactment in Buckingham Palace!This week in Let's Feel Old: the stars of MTV's Laguna Beach recently attended their 10-year high school reunion. James Franco and Nicki Minaj performed on Saturday Night Live last week. In addition to poking fun at Peter Pan Live!, highlights included a Hip Hop nativity, Nicki as Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé, a realistic Star Wars trailer and a hilariously weird skit with Mike O'Brien, "Grow-A-Guy." And in a skit that was cut for time, hosts of a St. Louis morning show feel incredibly awkward going live after the events in Ferguson. Sons of Anarchy is officially over and, DAYUM, the last few episodes/season/basically all of it was brutal. No spoilers, but I will definitely miss seeing Charlie Hunnam's chiseled butt cheeks on the reg and sweet Nero, with his delicate V-neck cardigans. (Jimmy Smitts was seriously amazing in this role). If you, too, need your Hunnam fix, check out his early days on Queer as Folk or in Judd Apatow's Freaks and Geeks follow-up, Undeclared. Baby British Jax! And congrats to Vanderpump Rules' Jax Taylor for basically stealing the name being the new reigning Jax of television. New movie trailers to hit the Interwebz: the latest film version of the beloved French short story The Little Prince; Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan star in romantic musical The Last Five Years; Dwyane "Still The Rock" Johnson's natural disaster flick San Andreas.

Morning News and Stuff
Barricades, free speech, and museums up, McDonalds down
It's morning. I've got news. Check it out.Barricades along McMicken Avenue in Over-the-Rhine and Fairview are working to deter prostitution, Cincinnati Police said yesterday in a presentation to City Council's Human Services Committee. The barriers sit in three locations along the street and were put up April 30 as part of a program to fight sex work and human trafficking in the area. Other efforts include new laws making penalties tougher for pimps and johns and releasing the names of those convicted of soliciting prostitutes. The stretch of McMicken is known for high levels of prostitution and other crime. In January, a 24-year-old woman was shot in the head and killed on the street. Authorities suspect she was involved in the sex trade. Police say the volume of prostitution in the area has gone down with the barricades, though they also acknowledge that they've seen an uptick in activity in places like the West End. Residents in West Price Hill have also reported an increase in prostitution since the barriers went up. Some residents in the area aren't convinced the barricades help and say they make their daily commutes more difficult, though others say they've noticed a difference in the level of crime. The barricades will come down by the end of the summer. • Everyone's favorite proto-tea party group and an anti-abortion organization got a win yesterday when the Supreme Court ruled that they can challenge an Ohio law prohibiting false statements in political advertising. The court ruled both the Coalition Opposed to Additional Spending and Taxes, or COAST, and the Susan B. Anthony List were harmed by the Ohio law and could sue the state. In 2010, Democrat Steve Driehaus, then running for governor, threatened legal action over SBA plans to buy billboards saying he voted for "tax-payer funded abortions." SBA cited Driehaus' support of the Affordable Care Act as proof of the claim. Though Driehaus dropped the matter after losing the election, SBA sued, saying their First Amendment rights were violated. COAST jumped on the suit as well, claiming they did not carry out plans for similar advertisements due to fear of legal action. SBA's assertion against Driehaus was incredibly questionable — using taxpayer money for abortions is still illegal under the ACA, and abortion providers must still go to great pains to show they're not using public money to administer the procedure — but the larger issue of free speech convinced both liberal and conservative justices at the Supreme Court. Lower courts originally dismissed the groups' suits, but the case will now go back to them to be settled. • Former Reds slugger and skipper Pete Rose got to manage a baseball team again yesterday, doing a one-day stint with the Bridgeport Bluefish, a Connecticut team in the independent Atlantic League. The 73-year-old hasn't managed a game since his suspension from major league baseball 25 years ago for gambling. • In other sports news, Team USA won over Ghana to kick off its bid for the World Cup, but you probably already know that from all the yelling your neighbors did about it last night. At least that's how I know about it. We're number one! • …Except when it comes to health care. In fact, a new study by the Commonwealth Fund shows the United States is number 11 when it comes to our health care system when compared with 10 other developed countries. The U.S. ranked behind the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Sweden, Australia, Germany, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, France and Canada in terms of quality of healthcare available. We're number 11! That's like being number one twice! The U.S. was legitimately number one in a single category, though: We have the most expensive health care of all the countries in the study. • Before you get too sad, consider this: Another study found there are more museums in the United States than Starbucks and McDonalds combined. We have about 25,000 of the two chains combined, and more than 35,000 museums. Now if they would just combine the two so I can see some postmodern art and grab a Big Mac at the same time, or maybe enjoy a smoothie as I check out the Kansas Underground Salt Museum.

Pete Rose comes home for Opening Day

Ask a non-Cincinnati native of a certain age what they know of the Queen City, and inevitably Pete Rose and the Big Red Machine will come up. Hey, probably better that than the Mapplethorpe controversy, WKRP in Cincinnati or Jerry Springer's various post-mayoral hijinks.

Those of us who long ago replaced our iPods with the one Apple invented that also has a phone in it don't have to worry about getting our cars broken into for leaving our 8-gig sitting on the seat (in which case we'd only really care about the broken window and change missing from the console). Hamilton County Sheriff Simon Leis today broke Rule No. 2 when it comes to leaving electronics in plain sight of thieves: Don't forget about the charger.

The Crowning of a Cincinnati Son
New documentary celebrates the playing career of Pete Rose

Remember Pete Rose the baseball player, the unparalleled competitor who played nearly every inning of every game for more than two decades and got more hits than anyone in Major League Baseball history? Terry Lukemire's new documentary, '4192: The Crowning of the Hit King,' aims to put the spotlight back on a singular career that's been overshadowed by its subject's admittedly self-inflicted mistakes.

The Cincinnati Reds today honored Hit King Pete Rose on the 25th anniversary of his record-breaking 4,192nd hit, only the second time Rose has participated in an on-field activity here since his lifetime banishment in 1989 for betting on baseball. Rose afterwards attended a roast in his honor, during which he gave an emotional speech and was subsequently reinstated to Major League Baseball.

Highlands Ranch is looking to restore order.
The one knock on Class 5A girls basketball throughout the previous decade was that the outcome was too predictable. For 10 straight years, a Continental League team hoisted the gold ball, and for six of those seasons, it was Highlands Ranch.
Outsiders had no shot, it was presumed.
Well, East's miraculous title run last season shattered those perceptions. For Highlands Ranch, the clear title favorite which was upset by East in the quarterfinals last season and by Monarch in the semifinals the previous year, it's time to get back to business as usual.
"We've been very disappointed the past few years, and now that a lot of us are seniors, we want to finish it off this time," Falcons point guard Tierra Shumpert said. "We want to go out as champs."
As usual, the Falcons are stocked with Division I talent in Shumpert (Vermont), forward-center Katelyn McDaniel (San Diego), guard Liza Heap (Drake) and guard Lindsay Mallon (Northern Colorado). Bre Baker will play at Division II Maryville College.
Like NBA coach Phil Jackson, Falcons coach Caryn Jarocki gets her titles in threes — from 2000-02 and again from 2006-08.
"She was actually pretty brief after we lost last season," Shumpert said. "She said we got outplayed, that we shot somewhere in the 20 percent range and that wasn't going to cut it."
Highlands Ranch is making it a focus this season not only to be dominant during the regular season but to finish the job.
"We know we're the team with the big target and that every team is out to get Highlands Ranch," said McDaniel, an All-Colorado selection last season. "We know that makes it so we have to concentrate more on every opponent. We're not going to take it easy on anyone this year."
While the Falcons have the rich title history, motivation is rooted in the notion that none of the current cast has been a key part of one.

Malaysia has seen yet another act of barbarianism perpetrated against a female by Muslims.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
5/30/2014 (9 months ago)
Published in Asia Pacific
Keywords: News, Asia, Malaysia
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - A 15-year-old girl was raped for hours by 38 Muslim men on May 20, in an abandoned hut in the country's northern state of Kelantan. Police have apprehended at least 13 individuals, and are looking for others suspected of the crime.
Pray for this poor victim of a despicable and barbaric act.
The victim apparently met a female friend of hers, who lured her into the empty hut, which was reportedly a local drug haunt. Police are also investigating the 17-year-old, to see if she was also raped.
Of those detained, several tested positive for amphetamine, and police say that this crime could have been prevented had villagers, including neighbors just 20-meters away, reported the presence of the addicts.
"It is very disturbing to me that no one in the village was even suspicious when the closest neighbor was a mere 20-meters away," reported Police Chief Azham to The Star daily.
Nearly 3,000 rapes have been reported to the Malaysian police since 2012. Of these, 52 percent involved girls 16 or younger.
Those convicted of rape can face 30 years in prison, and whippings, though some are pushing for harsher punishments.
This incident is just one of several cases of brutality that has taken place recently, displaying just how vilely Muslims treat women across Asia and the world. These acts have caused outrage among women's groups, while authorities from the Muslim party, which controls the region, have proposed stricter penalties to deter criminals.
"We are seeing a prevalence in rape cases because boys are raised in an environment where they think it is okay to use violence," said Suri Kempe of Sisters of Islam.
Other cases of rape in Asia include the fatal gang rape of a physiotherapy student in India in 2012, and the rape of two teenage cousins from a low caste in India, who where then hung from a tree.
In Pakistan, a pregnant woman was also bludgeoned to death by her family when she married against the wishes of her parents.
