Unless you caught the full program on TV, you probably missed how "Together We Thrive, Tucson&America" moved people to tears, cheers and standing ovations. Not the usual kind of memorial service for a massed shooting where six died and fourteen were wounded including US Representative Gabby Giffords.
My partner, Sueko, and I only decided to attend the night before when Shukan Kinyobi -- a weekly Japanese magazine published in Tokyo -- decided they wanted her to cover the event with me as photographer.
We got to the University of Arizona in Tucson just after noon the next day and found that people -- mostly students, as classes were canceled -- had started lining up 24 hours before the gates were to be open at 6:00 p.m. The line was already many blocks long. I left Sueko to secure a place in line and went to find a parking place which turned out to be basically impossible as the usual on-campus lots weren't open due to security and side streets required a permit. I wound up leaving the van at the motel and walking the one and a half miles back to the campus.
Meanwhile Sueko found a separate gate for Media/TV that was scheduled to open at 3:30 so we headed in that direction along the line of people waiting to see if they could get in. It looked more of a day-in-the-sun with people reading, chatting, having snacks from vendors and generally enjoying themselves, than a line. The head wasn't a line at all but a crush of people ready to go up the ramp into the McKale Center: we managed to push our way to the gate for Media/TV and register but we and others had to wait until the pre-registered had gone through security and into the center.
We finally made it inside around 5:30: What a disappointment! Media/TV reporters were sitting at desks with their laptops while the video and still photographers were on a platform obscuring the view of the speakers. However, our position provided a good view of the peoples' response to the speakers, each seat -- 13,000 in all -- had a neatly folded "Together We Thrive, Tucson&America" T-shirt on it, and the TV hanging in the center gave us a close-up view of the speakers, better than we could see for ourselves.
The cheers and standing ovations started before the program started. Another reporter asked me what they were doing; I had no idea. But as it happened again and again, I realized that some roving camera was picking out VIPs and people were standing and cheering for them.
The official start of the event began with UA President Robert Shelton introducing Dr. Carlos Gonzales, a professor at the University of Arizona, who began by saying he was a mixture of Native American and Mexican. Standing ovation. Then he called upon the East, the West, the South, the North, Father Sky, and Mother Earth for a blessing. Another standing ovation. Then came the National Anthem of the United States and another standing ovation. Maybe I need to get out more often, but I've lived in Arizona for 10 years and never heard these three at the start of an event. Separately, yes; together no.
The next major speaker was Daniel Hernandez Jr., Gabby Giffords intern who staunched the flow of blood from her head and probably saved her life. When he sat down the TV showed him at Barack's right; a place of honor.
The cheers and standing ovations continued interrupting the other speakers* and we could see people wiping away tears while Barack was speaking. You've probably been wondering why I'm calling him "Barack" instead of "President Obama." I've done so because his opening words indicated that he was there as an American citizen, not as an American President:
"To the families of those we've lost; to all who called them friends; to the students of this university, the public servants gathered tonight, and the people of Tucson and Arizona: I have come here tonight as an American who, like all Americans, kneels to pray with you today, and will stand by you tomorrow."
Further, he referred to "Gabby," not "U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords" and referred to others by either their first name, or nickname. Thus Barack was presenting himself as a human being, not the position he currently occupies. This was made doubly clear with these words:
"We recognize our own mortality, and are reminded that in the fleeting time we have on this earth, what matters is not wealth, or status, or power, or fame - but rather, how well we have loved, and what small part we have played in bettering the lives of others."
The next day we went to the hospital where Gabby had opened her eyes for the first time the day before.
Parking was easy and only a short walk to the main entrance of the University Medical Center where the national and state flags were flying at half-mast.
The large grassy area was ringed with candles, flowers, balloons, messages for Gabby. There was a constant stream of visitors contemplating the memorial, taking photos, and what looked like saying prayers, the most clear was a group from the Tohono O'Odam Nation who stood in a circle and chanted for a long time.
I spent most of the time looking for representative images and only talked with a few people. One was a Marine (retired but "Once a Marine, always a Marine") who was installing a centered national flag for the memorial. He explained that in a group, the national flag is flown "to its own right" as could be seen at the University Medical Center. But for memorials, it's placed center and he was remedying the situation.
By chance I meet with a/the sister of Judge John Roll who was one of the victims. She and her husband didn't want to be interviewed or any photos taken but we shared the hope that this will be a wakeup call, a turning point in U.S. history, where freedom of speech is tempered by civility where Tucson and America can thrive together.
As I was leaving, I saw a young boy running across the grass with a good-sized stone in his hand. Strange, so I followed him and saw that he was using the stone to hold down a balloon saying "Get Well." I asked his mother if it had been his idea, and she said, "Yes, it was his idea."
*Speakers: President Obama; Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland Security; Eric Holder, U.S. Attorney General; Arizona Gov., Jan Brewer; Emily Firtz, UA Student Body President; Daniel Hernandez Jr., Giffords intern; UA President Robert N. Shelton; Dr. Carlos Gonzales, University of Arizona.

They didn't call the older student that gave his resume (He may have been over qualified, having worked in aerospace manufacturing previously). We set up an interview date, which was pretty straight forward. They didn't really have any questions for me, and I had a ton for them. I was really excited and eager and I'm sure it showed. They had me bring my passport with me so that I could get cleared to work there so it was basically a guarantee the job was mine.

NASA unveils last moon video by doomed spacecraft
NASA scientists shot a two-minute video of a lunar flyby from a height of only 6 miles above the moon's surface, 3 days before crashing the spacecraft near the moon's north pole.
Arnold Miller / The News Times / AP / File
A NASA probe recorded a spectacular flyover video of the moon's far side shortly before intentionally slamming into a lunar mountain last month.
NASA's Ebb spacecraft shot the stunning final moon video on Dec. 14, just three days before it and its twin Flow ended their gravity-mapping mission, known as GRAIL, with a dramatic crash near the moon's north pole.
Ebb was just 6 miles (10 kilometers) above the lunar surface when it captured the images using its MoonKAM (Moon Knowledge Acquired by Middle school students) camera. The probe was skimming over the far side's northern hemisphere at the time, near an impact crater named Jackson.
GRAIL scientists pieced together about 2,400 individual frames to make the nearly two-minute video, NASA officials said.
The $496 million GRAIL mission — short for Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory — launched in September 2011, and Ebb and Flow arrived in lunar orbit about three months later. The washing-machine-size spacecraft spent a year zipping around the moon, detecting the tiny changes in the distance between them caused by lunar mountains, craters and subsurface mass concentrations.
The GRAIL team used these super-precise measurements to construct an incredibly accurate map of the lunar gravity field — the best ever created for any celestial body, researchers said.
But Ebb and Flow couldn't keep flying forever. They were running out of fuel by last month and would have crashed into the moon eventually, so the mission team decided to bring them down in a controlled fashion, far from the Apollo landing sites and other areas of historical importance.

ARTS DEPARTMENT: Restless kids can work off energy in theater
SAN ANGELO, Texas - Summer is here! School is out! The kids are home! The kids are home. The kids are home
Every parent has surely felt this sentiment at one time or another as the end of the school year approaches. Summer always starts so well — days at the pool, family barbecues, sleeping in. By the end of July, the kids are sunburned and restless, and the parents are beside themselves trying to find ways to educate and entertain them. Angelo Civic Theatre can help.
We are winding down our 2012-13 season with our annual Summer Youth Program. It is our mission to "culturally enrich, educate and entertain through the art of theater and theatrical performance and to encourage community participation in all aspects thereof." As the only nonprofit theater in San Angelo, we aim to instill the love of community and the love of the arts through our educational programming.
The students will participate in a five-week schedule focused on creating the musical production "Willy Wonka." Each child will learn the basics of acting, blocking, diction, voice, musical direction, choreography, technical theater and teamwork. This is a great opportunity for your children to learn how to work with others to achieve a common goal, boost their self-esteem, create lifelong memories and cultivate friendships.
Students ages 8 to 18 are welcome. The program runs June 17 to July 19, with performances July 21 and 24. Jeska Bailey, whose talents have been showcased in "Cabaret" and "The Producers," and who recently directed the children's performance of "The Cat in the Hat," will direct. Gretchen Smith, a local elementary music teacher, will be musical director. Tuition is $200, and scholarships are available.
We are looking forward to a new season filled with great productions and enriching opportunities to involve our community in the performing arts. Please encourage your children to be a part of this wonderful opportunity. By instilling in them a love for the arts, you will help to keep the arts thriving in our special town and ensure our success for years to come.
It is because of this incredible community that we are able to sustain and continue the legacy that is Angelo Civic Theatre, the oldest community theater in Texas. Thank you for your continued support.
For more information about our Summer Youth Program and upcoming season, please call the Angelo Civic Theatre at 325-949-4400 or visit angelocivictheatre.org.
Cathryn Sanders is interim executive director of Angelo Civic Theatre. Contact her at email@example.com or 325-949-4400.

South Africa World Cup 101: Why is it in Johannesburg?
In 2004, Africa was selected for the first time to host the South Africa World Cup. The competition was between South Africa, Morocco, Egypt, Libya, and Tunisia. In May of that year, South Africa won the bid.
Martin Meissner/AP
Johannesburg, South Africa
From its beginning in 1930, world soccer's governing body, FIFA, has rotated the South Africa World Cup between its member football associations from continent to continent. In practice, that meant the World Cup was held mostly in Europe and Latin America.
In 2002, Asia hosted the World Cup for the first time, and it was hosted jointly (also a first) by South Korea and Japan.
In 2004, Africa was selected (for the first time) as the continent to host the World Cup, and the competition was between South Africa, Morocco, Egypt, Libya, and Tunisia.
On May 15, 2004, FIFA chairman Sepp Blatter announced that South Africa had won the bid, to the visible satisfaction of visiting dignitaries such as former President Nelson Mandela.

In an interview with Roland Martin on the Tom Joyner Morning Show this morning, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Colin Powell revealed that he recently advised President Obama to take his time in devising his strategy for Afghanistan and Pakistan.
You can listen to the audio of this interview HERE.
"This is a very difficult one for him," Powell said. "And it isn't just a one-time decision. This is the decision that will have consequences for the better part of his administration. So Mr. President, don't get pushed by the left to do nothing; don't get pushed by the right to do everything. You take your time and you figure it out. You're the commander-in-chief and this is what you were elected for."
Powell said he had "advised him is to not be rushed into a decision because this one is the decision that will have consequences for years to come."
"If you decide to send more troops or that's what you feel it is necessary, make sure you have a good understanding of what those troops are going to be doing and some assurance that the additional troops will be successful," Powell says he told the president. "You can't guarantee success in a very complex theater like Afghanistan and increasingly with the Pakistan problem next door, but you have to have some sense of what these additional troops will be able to do.
"And secondly, take your time," Powell said, "and third, you've got to ensure that you're putting this commitment on a solid base, and the base is a little soft right now. We've got a president in Afghanistan that had a rough election; a lot of corruption associated with the election; a lot of corruption in the government. And he has been told — Mr. Karzai has been told, and I know him very well — he's been told he's got to do something about this; he's got to do something about the drug problem, and he's got to start pulling the Afghan people together. And so the president has to measure that; what kind of base is he putting this new strategy on because it isn't just what we do; what do the Afghans do. And as I said a moment ago, it's made particularly difficult because of the unstable situation along the Pakistan border and in Pakistan."
Powell endorsed Obama last October.

Norse Projects x Pro-Keds
For spring-summer 2012 the Danish Norse Projects have teamed up with Pro-Keds to release a collection of three low-tops sneakers in which they revisited the American brand's flagship model called the Royal Master. Just so you know, Pro-Keds was launched in 1954 as the basketball range of Keds. Orinially released in 1972 under the name Royal Plus, this model made for basketball players has been the most popular style in Pro-Keds' history.
It hasn't aged a bit fifty years later, which is normal with such a timeless design. Norse Projects proposes three different colorways for this collab, all coming in bright grey, blue and tan suede leather. We like their details like a plain leather yoke on the heel or the cork inner sole, guaranteeing comfort. This nice collab is distributed for €108 in selected stores only:
Norse Store (Copenhagen)
Colette (Paris)
Soto (Berlin)
Dover Street Market (London)

Pre-PMA@CES News
By Adorama News Writer
January 9, 2012
Fujifilm's newest camera seems like the next step in a logical progression that began last year with the Leica-esque, high-resolution X100, followed by the smaller-sensor-based X10, a street-savvy little camera with a similarly retro feel. The Fujifilm X-Pro1 is a new interchangeable-lens compact camera that appears ready to take on that more expensive rangefinder camera. The Fujifilm X-Pro1 will hit the market with a range of three X-Mount lenses—an 18mm (27mm equivalent on a 35mm sensor camera) f/2, 35mm (53mm equivalent) f/1.4 lens, and a 60mm (91mm equivalent) f/2.4 macro lens. Lens diaphragm blades are curved for pleasing bokeh. The company says nine more lenses will be rolled out within the next three years, and that an M-mount adapter is in the works.
Adorama is now accepting orders for the Fujifilm X-Pro1. Orders will be processed on a first come, first served basis. Credit cards will not be charged until the order ships.
The camera is built around a newly-developed CMOS sensor that Fujifilm claims is capable of resolution that is superior to other APS-C sensors. A new color filter array eliminates the need for a low-pass filter that is inspired by the random arrangement of fine film grain. This pattern is supposed to eliminate moire and provide truer colors.
Other key features:
The X-Pro1 will be available in February, for $1,699.95. A lineup of accessories, including a hand grip, shoe-mount flash, filters and leather case, will also be introduced. For details, read the Fujifilm Press ReleaseFUJIFILM INTRODUCES THE REVOLUTIONARY X-PRO1 INTERCHANGEABLE LENS DIGITAL CAMERA SYSTEMFeaturing the New X-Trans CMOS sensorTM, FUJIFILM original X-Mount and New Hybrid Multi Viewfinder, the X-Pro1 Delivers Outstanding Image Quality that Rivals Current DSLR CamerasValhalla, N.Y., January 9, 2012 – FUJIFILM North America Corporation proudly introduces the debut of its newest and most advanced addition to its premium, high quality X-Series digital camera line-up – the FUJIFILM X-Pro1 interchangeable lens digital camera system.With a brand new, custom developed 16MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensorTM, incorporating a newly developed filter array and Fujifilm's proprietary EXR Processor technology, the FUJIFILM X-Pro1 is poised to deliver superlative image quality that will rival currently available mid and high-end DSLR models. Taking another decisive step into the premium camera market, Fujifilm has taken the X-Pro1 to the next level featuring a New 2nd Generation Hybrid Multi Viewfinder and three prime interchangeable FUJINON lenses.The FUJIFILM X-Pro1 digital camera not only promises to carve out a distinct position in the premium camera category, but it also promises to reward X-Series loyalists with a camera system that surpasses their expectations."Fujifilm puts great emphasis on producing outstanding image quality, and with the X-Pro1, we are proud to offer an interchangeable lens system that performs to the highest professional caliber," said Go Miyazaki, division president, Imaging and Electronic Imaging Divisions, FUJIFILM North America Corporation. "Each element is the product of Fujfiilm's commitment to uncompromising quality. With its custom APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensorTM, unique Hybrid Multi Viewfinder and three interchangeable lenses, the X-Pro1 is poised to become the new standard for photographers."Setting new standards in image resolutionFujifilm has developed a new CMOS sensor called the X-Trans CMOSTM. The X-Trans CMOSTM sensor is capable of delivering resolution that is superior to other APS-C sensors and equal to even some full frame sensors.The new color filter array paves the way for an ideal sensor that does not need an optical low-pass filter. While the optical low-pass filter is indispensable for the reduction of moiré and false color generated by conventional sensors, it also degrades resolution. Fujifilm has developed a new color filter array that is inspired by the random arrangement of fine film grain, removing the need for an optical low-pass filter to solve moiré and false color issues. In the array, RGB pixels are arranged in 6x6 pixel sets with high aperiodicity (randomness). Increasing the degree of randomness eliminates the fundamental cause of moiré and false colors – a problem that occurs in conventional arrays when shooting stripes and other repeating patterns. The presence of an R, G and B pixel in every vertical and horizontal pixel series minimizes the generation of false colors and delivers higher color reproduction.As a result of using a film-inspired array, a more powerful processor is required to process the image signal data. So Fujifilm has developed the EXR Processor Pro. This technology will maximize the full potential of the X-Trans CMOSTM sensor, delivering high speed and high precision image processing.Prime FUJINON XF lenses deliver the highest image qualityFUJINON lenses have long been associated with delivering high quality images, with optics used for both broadcast TV and medium format cameras. Now the expertise borne out of this enviable optical heritage has been put into lenses for the FUJIFILM X-Pro1.Three compact XF FUJINON fast aperture prime lenses will be available at launch. The "XF18mmF2 R" (27mm equivalent) f/2.0, "XF 35mmF1.4 R" (53mm equivalent) f/1.4, and "XF60mmF2.4 R Macro" (90mm equivalent) F/2.4 are all bright and compact and designed to deliver sharp, clear images of uncompromising quality. They offer precise control over depth-of-field and deliver excellent bokeh effects thanks to the design of the molded aperture diaphragm blades. The blades are curved to create a circular image at all aperture settings, while the very edges of each blade are meticulously rounded off rather than simply cut off, which delivers a sharper image. In addition, the solid feel of the high-quality metal barrel and detailed exposure setting in 1/3 step increments using the aperture ring fuel your desire to capture more photos with every shot.FUJIFILM original "X-Mount" maximizes lens performanceSpecifically designed to maximize the mirrorless design of the body the X-Mount has a short flange back distance of just 17.7mm. This means the rear lens elements are as close as possible to the sensor. The wide opening allows the lens to be mounted deeper within the body – up to 7.5mm (approximately) from the mount surface – reducing the back focus distance of each lens to the minimum possible, thus achieving high resolution all the way to the edge of the imageHybrid Multi Viewfinder – seeing is believingFirst introduced in the FUJIFILM X100 digital camera, Fujifilm's revolutionary Hybrid Viewfinder has the ability to instantly switch between an Optical Viewfinder and Electronic Viewfinder. The Hybrid Viewfinder has added a new dimension to the pleasure of composing photographs. For the brightest viewing image, and to keep shutter lag to a minimum, users should choose the Optical Viewfinder. Those wanting focus confirmation, exposure information, white balance information and depth of field indicators should switch to the Electronic Viewfinder.The Electronic Viewfinder provides an excellent "Live View" of your composition. This fusion of technologies allows users to enjoy composing their images through a bright viewfinder, but has the option to overlay vital picture taking information should this be required.Changing between the two viewfinders is simple, thanks to the switch on the front of the X-Pro1 body. When attaching a FUJINON XF-series lens on the X-Pro1, both the viewfinder magnification and bright frame size automatically switch to support the lens focal length. Viewfinder magnification switches to 0.37x for the 18mm lens, and to 0.60x when the 35mm or 60mm lens is mounted, letting you compose your shot with the bright, crystal clarity of an optical image. The X-Pro1 also gives you the freedom to manually set a focal distance and switch between viewfinder magnifications.Cutting edge technology in a beautiful camera bodyThe X-Pro1's magnesium alloy chassis and improved user interface is a testament to Fujifilm's unyielding attention to quality and the photographic needs of the professionals. From the exact and deliberate placement of the buttons to the precision milled dials, the X-Pro1 beautifully encompasses all that is needed to deliver high quality photography.The top and base are made from die-cast aluminum alloy which, combined with high quality touches like precise engraving on the top-plate and hand-enameled lettering on the lenses,illustrates how the entire X-Pro1 system was designed and built without compromise.This eye for detail extends to the shutter speed dial and exposure compensation control that is precision milled from solid metal. Details like the shutter speed dial lock mechanism and the recessed exposure compensation dial are designed to prevent accidental movement of settings. The knurled finish on the sides of the dials feature rows of minutely milled squared pyramids for superb grip and confidence.As a well-known mark of quality, the "Made in Japan" printing confirms that every part of the construction has had to meet Fujifilm's highest standards.The lightweight, precision-milled lens hood (included with the lens) has been exclusively designed and machined from aluminum for the FUJINON XF lens. Its compact size delivers superb light shading performance in a design that perfectly matches X-Pro1 styling. Diameters of the aperture ring and focus ring of the three FUJINON XF-series interchangeable lenses are only slightly larger than the barrel for sleek uniformity of design. Precision machined from metal, the reassuring click of the aperture ring at each setting and the comfortable torque resistance when operating the focus ring enhances the shooting experience.The X-Pro1's leather-like finish is designed for a quality look and durability. The synthetic leather offers resistance to the elements and high durability, while an original manufacturing process produces a texture with the look and feel of authentic leather. The X-Pro1 has also been designed with the photographer's comfort in mind. The natural fit of the eyepiece provides excellent shielding from light leakage, and an optional dioptic adjustment lens can also be attached.Extending Fujifilm's photo film legacyIn film cameras, capturing multiple exposures is the unique photographic technique of superimposing one image on another by double exposing a single frame of film. Through advanced digital processing the X-Pro1 can simulate this technique by simply selecting the Multiple Exposure mode and taking the first shot. By viewing the image via the Hybrid Multi Viewfinder or on the LCD screen, you can see how the finished multiple exposure will look and then precisely frame the second shot.Further enhancements have been made to the Film Simulation modes with the new Professional Color Negative Film Modes (Pro Neg. Std and Pro Neg. Hi) designed for X-Pro1 users working in the studio. The X-Pro1 also offers Film Simulation bracketing, along with AE, Dynamic and ISO bracketing; plus the ability to capture the colors and tonal qualities of popular FUJIFILM emulsions through the vibrant colors of Velvia, the softer skin tones of ASTIA and the natural look of PROVIA.Replicating the effects of monochrome film photography the X-Pro1 lets you use color filters to expand your photographic interpretation. Heighten contrast with the yellow filter and red filter, or brighten greens and deepen reds with the green filter. Just as professional film photographers once selected a filter and printing paper to complement their creative vision, you can easily fine tune image quality with these filters. For those after a more nostalgic theme there is also a sepia filter.Premium Accessory LineupThe FinePix X-Pro1 has these additional premium accessory options that are sold separately:Hand Grip, HG-XPro1 - Giving you more secure and balanced handling of the camera, the X-Pro1 accessory grip smoothly molds to the lines of the camera body for a uniform look. The grip helps balance the weight of the camera body, allowing for a more comfortable hold.Shoe Mount Flash EF-X20 – Designed to match X-Pro1's distinctive styling, a single dial lets you choose between two modes: AUTO - automatically optimizes flash for both outdoor daylight and dark indoor shots; and MANUAL - for hands-on control. In addition, the built-in flash diffuser has an easy one-touch process to soften harsh flash effects.Leather Case LC-XPro1* - Beautifully molded to protect the X-Pro1, this leather case is designed to allow fast access for easy shooting. Attention has been given to every detail, from the color and spacing of the stitches to the use of a hidden magnet rather than a snap for closing the case. The premium case is complete with the authentic leather neck-strap and hood case.Protector Filter 39mm and Protector Filter 52mm – These protection filters have high transmissivity without affecting the visible light, and the Super EBC coating effectively controls harmful borrowed light. The frame of the filters has a semi gloss black finish, keeping with the high sense of design, while the inner filter ring is finished in a matte black in order to minimize reflections.Pricing and AvailabilityThe FUJIFILM X-Pro1 will be available in February 2012, and the price will be announced in late January 2012.

McCarthy restates Doyle stance
16 Jul 2010 - 16:53:53
Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Mick McCarthy has reiterated his stance that only a huge bid would be enough to take striker Kevin Doyle away from Molineux.
The 26-year-old Republic of Ireland international enjoyed a fine first season with McCarthy's men, scoring nine goals in 37 appearances.
That sparked talk of interest from some of the Premier League's biggest clubs, but McCarthy is confident that Doyle is going nowhere.
He told the Express & Star: "When Kevin said recently that he was pledging his future to Wolves it suddenly caused a stir.
"The reality is that he was saying it to get everybody off his back. Leave him alone and let him play his football.
"Look, if Manchester United come in and offer the club £50million and give him 200 grand a week, I can't keep him.
"Then I'll have to say 'thanks, Kevin, all the best, see you'.
"But no, there's not been any approach from Arsenal - I can't be any straighter.
"Kevin will be a player for us unless someone comes in offering the earth, moon and stars for him."

BATON ROUGE, LA (WVLA) — If you ask parents in Louisiana, many will tell you their children suffer from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. According to the Centers for Disease Control's, "Parent-Reported Diagnosis of ADHD by a Health Care Provider and Medication Treatment Among Children 4-17 Years: National Survey of Children's Health - 2003 to 2011," Louisiana ranks on top for children on ADHD medicine.
The CDC's state profile report for Louisiana also listed that in 2011 Louisiana had approximately 16 percent of respondent's said their child had been diagnosed with ADHD. The number went up from 10.3 percent in 2003.
"ADHD is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and there are two main forms of ADHD," Doctor Shaun Kemmerly, Interim Medical Director for Our Lady of the Lake Children's Hospital, said.
Dr. Kemmerly says some kids with ADHD have lots of energy and trouble sitting still. Others have issues paying attention.
"That child doesn't have difficulty sitting still but the mind wanders and they have difficulty focusing and staying on task."
Dr. Kemmerly questions the report's findings.
"I'm not sure the validity of this report, so I question how much emphasis do we really need to put on this since it's based on parents recall of a diagnosis. Did parents really understand the question? How many parents were questioned? I would like to see more evidence to really, before I would become alarmed," Dr. Kemmerly stated.
Dr. Kemmerly did note in general over the years the number of kids diagnosed with ADHD has gone up.
"I think in general we are doing a better job at identifying children that do have ADHD that need to be treated appropriately," she said.
Dr. Kemmerly said doctors are very particular when it comes to writting a prescription for ADHD medications.
"These medicines are a controlled substance so it's not something that is prescribed lightly," She stated. "...Pediatricians are seeing the children back quite frequently when they are on these medicines to measure weight and heart rate and other side effects that you could have from the medication."
She said there are multiple ways to treat ADHD.
"Not everyone with ADHD is on medication," She said. "Sometimes there are behavior modifications that you can do to control the symptoms."
She said patients shouldn't rely on medicine alone.
"The medicine is a small piece. It's not you have a problem take this medicine you are fixed. It's not treated that way. It's a much more holistic approach to treating these symptoms," Dr. Kemmerly said.
If you think you're child may have ADHD Dr. Kemmerly suggest you discuss the matter with your regular pediatrician.

(AP) Marlon Byrd lined a two-out double over a hesitant right-fielder Chris Denorfia's head in the eighth inning, Mets outfielders saved two runs with outstanding plays and New York snapped a three-game skid by beating the San Diego Padres 4-1 Thursday night.
Zack Wheeler struck out a career-high 12 for New York. Eric Young Jr. saved a homer by leaping above the wall and knocking the ball back onto the field in the third inning. Center fielder Juan Lagares then threw out a runner at home plate in the fifth.
Byrd doubled off reliever Luke Gregerson (5-7), who had intentionally walked the left-handed hitting Daniel Murphy to pitch to the righty Byrd. Gregerson hit pinch-hitter Mike Baxter with a pitch. Baxter stole second before Murphy was walked.

Albergo dell'Agenzia, Bra, Italy
The pace: Lift fork to mouth. Lower. Lift glass and sip. Repeat.
The place: Italy's Slow Food movement, that ambitious return to fresh food in a McDonald's world, got its start at the Albergo dell'Agenzia in the Piedmont town of Bra. And it's no wonder. The rumpled hills of northern Italy produce the taste of pure terroir in abundance: wine, cheese, truffles, escargots, and chocolate. The Albergo dell'Agenzia's neo-Gothic campus includes a Michelin-starred restaurant and a wine bank with more than 800 varieties to sample. Get ready to brag to your locavore friends back home about the provenance of the inn's foods, including hazelnuts harvested from the nearby hillsides and pheasant that were just trotting around the velvety grounds. Over a dinner that lasts longer than most feature films, you can follow the egg en cocotte and white truffle with Fassone veal in a pastry crust and end with panna cotta served with pears soaked in Moscato. Luckily, there are also 47 rooms to stumble back to.

US agents make arrests in massive Medicare fraud case in Florida
Federal strike force targets two South Florida companies that allegedly netted $83 million from Medicare fraud. Case is called the largest fraudulent billing scheme ever prosecuted by the strike force.
J Pat Carter/AP
Federal agents in a health-care-fraud strike force moved on Thursday in Miami to shut down a massive Medicare fraud operation that allegedly netted $83 million in illicit proceeds since 2003.
Two South Florida health-care companies and four owners and senior managers were named in a 13-count indictment charging fraud and kickbacks.
The companies, American Therapeutic Corporation and Medlink Professional Management Group, both of Miami, allegedly worked together in a scheme to bill the Medicare system for community-based mental health services that were either unnecessary or were never actually provided.
The ATC case is part of an ongoing push by federal officials to crack down on widespread Medicare and Medicaid fraud. More than 825 individuals have been indicted nationwide by the strike force since its inception in 2007. The Obama administration is gearing up to play an increasingly important role in reforming the nation's health-care insurance system.
On Thursday, the federal agents arrested Lawrence Duran, Marianella Valera, Judith Negron, and Margarita Acevedo. In addition, a federal judge ordered the defendants' personal and corporate assets frozen.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
What a load of bull. My roommate bought this, for reasons unbeknownst to myself, but it was probably the worst purchase of his life. We've bought some really lame stuff for the apartment over the course of our stay there...but this takes the cake. We have never ONCE gotten it to thaw anything. What ends up happening is the stupid Miracle Thaw gets all cold and it freezes to the piece of meat we're trying to thaw. Can you believe that?! It attaches to the piece of meat you want to thaw. After seeing the thing up close, I understand what they're trying to do. The thing's painted black, and it has gaps in it, like a heat sink. What they're trying to do is use the ambient radiation and light to heat and thaw your food using convection and such. However, it isn't curved, and does a horrible job at reflecting and focusing the rays (which is why it sucks.) and that's why the tell you to keep running water over it. (Which, ironically enough, is exactly what our previous method of quick defrosting entailed.) What a load of crock! Stay far, far away from this. There's no Miracle in Miracle Thaw. I find it interesting that you can rearrange the letters in "Miracle Thaw" to spell "What Miracle?!". Using this product is most likened to when you go out and buy those canisters of model paint, and then you forget about them for a while. Then you remember it and you try and open the lid on it, but it's painted shut, so you try for frickin' hours, and finally after you go through several can openers and a few layers of skin on your palm, you get it open...only to find that all the paint has already hardened into a solid mass. That's exactly the level of frustration and useability you get out of the Miracle Thaw. It's a Miracle someone hasn't taken one upside the head of whoever made them.
