"Event-wise, they are stronger than anyone else in the business," said Peter "PT" Townend, surfing's first world champion. "I'm pretty confident in Vans taking on the U.S Open; it will be a smooth transition."
Townend noted that one major challenge for Vans will be getting the top athletes like Slater and current world champion Joel Parkinson to show up.
"That is the most important thing. If we don't have Kelly Slater, it's like not having Tiger Woods at the PGA," he said.
Palladini said this year's US Open of Surfing is all about "bringing the industry back," and that organizers intend to have every surf and skate brand on site that wants to be a part of the US Open of Surfing.
"The US Open is just too important to our industry to keep it just for us," he said. "We also intend to lead by bringing a Vans identity to everything from the surf, skate, and BMX events to music, art and street culture, to even the way retail comes to the beach."
1994: The U.S. Open of Surfing was created in 1994 after the OP Pro struggled financially in the early '90s, never rebounding from a tarnished past charred by images of a beach riot in the mid-'80s that broke out during a bikini contest. Those images include police in riot gear, cars in flames and chaos on the sand. The OP Pro would be a warm-up event with 410 competitors, then the second week the U.S. Open of Surfing would bring the best surfers into town for the first World Tour event on the mainland since 1991.
A young Kelly Slater, 22 at the time, would show up with the rest of the best 48 surfers on the World Tour, along with the 16 best women. Slater the year before had just wrapped up his stint with "Baywatch" and was being followed around by crews of the "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous."
Back then, you could buy tickets for seats to watch the event -- $20 to watch the last days of the Op Pro and the U.S. Open finals. But ticket sales were lackluster, drawing 30,000 fewer fans than the 200,000 projected.
1995: A big showdown happened in 1995 in a final with Rob Machado winning a close – and now historic – heat against Slater in front of nearly 50,000 fans. His prize: $14,000, a bit smaller than the top prize offered the past few years under Nike's reign: $100,000.
1997: The event was pulled off the World Tour list, meaning the big names became less frequent at the event each year.
2003-2008: The event was named Honda U.S. Open of Surfing, and had everything from freestyle motocross and volleyball to poker in the festival area, creating a circus-like atmosphere. In 2007, wackiness hit the sand before the surf contest as 100 steer and 25 horses showed up under the pier as a joint promotion with the OC Fair.
2009: Hurley came on as sponsor, paving the way for parent company Nike. The event focused on surf, skate, art, fashion and music. The event was upgraded in status to an ASP 6-star Prime event, and along with a $100,000-prize purse, the event became a stop for most World Tour surfers looking to earn valuable points. A big swell with 15-foot surf had crowds pumped, and surfers performed at their top level. It was a fairytale story for O.C., with Huntington Beach's Brett Simpson and Costa Mesa's Courtney Conlogue winning first place.
2010: Nike – parent to Hurley – took over title sponsorship but kept a big presence of the surf brand, along with sister company Converse. The crowds continued to hit nearly 1 million during nine days. Weezer performed in 2010, and in 2011 MGMT again brought near-tipping point crowds. World champion Kelly Slater won his first U.S. Open title in front of tens of thousands of surf fans.
2012: The U.S. Open had the same look with Nike/Converse/Hurley as the previous year, with an increased focus on social media and brand interaction. Two big retail shops were built on the sand, and the Walk the Walk fashion show was eliminated. The city enforced restrictions on the concert series, and smaller bands were brought in, with no headliner on Saturday as in previous years. Still, crowds continued to swell, and the world's best surfers still showed up.
1966: Van Doren Rubber founded by Paul J. Van Doren, Gordon C. Lee, James Van Doren and Serge Delia. Company makes sneakers that gain a strong following among skateboarders.

Latest Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Stories
TE's KILOVAC Synonymous with Rugged Reliability in Harsh, Demanding Environments Harrisburg, PA (PRWEB) August 16, 2012 NASA's Curiosity rover landed
NASA scientists are continuing to celebrate the successful landing of its Curiosity rover and after poring over data to determine the precise point of impact, space officials are even more excited to find that it actually made touchdown in the best spot possible from a scientific point-of-view.
What could one day be considered artifacts if archaeologists are to ever start digging around on Mars, a new high resolution photo shows the remnants of Curiosity's landing components.
NASA announced during a press conference that its Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) was able to snap a photo of Curiosity as it entered into the Martian atmosphere last night.
In preparation for the upcoming Curiosity rover landing on the Red Planet, the Mars orbiter Odyssey has successfully repositioned itself into an orbital location that will allow for prompt confirmation to Earth of a successful landing.

Parents on a Different Page, but Same Chapter
Raising teens is hard enough when parents agree on how a child should be parented. But confusion flourishes and relationships flounder when moms and dads can't seem to get on the same parenting page. During adolescence, kids need a cohesive and focused team approach from Mom and Dad, whether the entire family is living in the same house or not.
This doesn't mean you have to change your parenting personality. I parent different than my wife. My wife's personality is different than mine. And it works! The two styles combined provide a varied approach to our kids, who have their own personalities. There are times in our kids' lives that my type of parenting works best, and there are times when hers does. But make no mistake—above and beyond our parenting styles, my wife and I work together for the same purpose, and that's to raise healthy and mature kids.
If you and your spouse aren't on the same parenting page, there's going to trouble. Here's an example. If one of you is focused on pleasing a teen and making him happy all the time, and the other is focused on preparing him for the next stage of life, you'll end up with a teen who remains immature, and tends to favor the parent who is taking them along the path of least resistance. The other parent becomes the "bad guy" and the teen is not prepared to handle the challenges that will soon be before him. Keep parenting at cross-purposes, and somewhere along the teen-timeline, relationships will be damaged, spouses will be hurt, and lessons will be lost.
So how do you ensure you and your spouse are working as a team?
Watch The Criticism
Since none of us are perfect, there will always be something your spouse did, or didn't do, that could be cause for complaints. But before you criticize your mate, ask yourself if it will help or hurt your partnership. Too often, moms and dads start seeing each other as adversaries instead of teammates. If your spouse has dropped the ball or fumbled a pass while raising your teen, you don't have to point it out or assign blame. I can guarantee that you'll drop the ball a few times as well! Instead, learn how to honestly express the strains and struggles you are feeling towards your spouse without pointing the finger. And if your spouse slips up and directs some blame your way, don't counterattack. We all get carried away with our words sometimes. Instead, tackle your marital struggles and disagreements with a bedrock commitment to respect and unity. You will not only improve your relationship with your spouse, you will also give your teen a powerful example to follow. My friend DeeDee Mayer says that one of the great benefits of marriage is: "To know and be known as a human being and be loved anyway."
Agree Even If You Don't
Moms and Dads will never see eye-to-eye on every parenting issue. But you can agree to work together and speak with one voice and one message to your teens. Agree to talk through disagreements over what is important for your child. When you differ on what the parenting focus should be in your home, some sacrifice from both parents may be necessary in order to reach an agreement. But having a unified front can bring about some big results in your teens. So agree to be united in your parenting. Agree about which "hills to die on", what's major, what's minor, what's important, what's not. And if you can't come to an agreement, then seek counsel from someone you both look up to, and continue to respect each other, especially in front of your kids.
Focus On Your Marriage
My wife and I have been weather-tested when it comes to raising teenagers. But even now, with adult kids, we still tussle over the advice we give to our kids and we still struggle to give each other the grace to make mistakes sometimes. When my twenty-five year old announced his divorce, for instance, Jan and I didn't see eye-to-eye on what to do, or how to talk with our son. We were confused and hurting, and it took its toll on our marriage. We started drifting apart, setting up emotional foxholes and hunkering down alone. It took the grace of God to snap us out of the funk and get us back together and focused. We realized we needed each other to survive, and working through the pain by ourselves was not an option.
I know this may surprise you, but your relationship with your spouse is more important than your relationship with your child. So this next piece of advice is mandatory: take time every day to give attention to your spouse. Take a break from the rest of your family to go on a date. Write him a love note. Surprise her with flowers. Go away for the weekend. Cultivate a healthy marriage. Nurture each other for a little while and you will soon see how refreshed and re-energized you feel. You'll work better as a team, and your kids will see a powerful model of a husband and wife who are devoted to each other and are on the same page.
Be Patient
If you've been married for a while, you've likely realized by now that you can't change your spouse. The only person you can change is you. Raising teens as a united team takes time. It's a daily process. We need to display patience and grace with each other in order to make it work. That may require us to give up some of our opinions for the sake of unity. But let me tell you—it's so worth it!
Parents, if you are approaching the teen years with your kids, start preparing ahead of time. Begin having those conversations to ensure that you are on the same page, and that the foundations of your marriage are strong. The steps you take today will guard your marriage from the problems that can come during adolescence. And if you have teens in your home now, perhaps the best thing you can do for your teen right now is to turn your attention toward your marriage, and strengthen the parenting team.

A Special Message from Mark
Dear Friend,
Every so often, I write a note to all our readers asking them to help us as we continue to help you in your parenting roles. This is one of those requests.
Jan and I have spent our lives in ministry, helping teens and families since we were both 19 years of age, right before we got married. This year, we've been married 40 years, and will both turn 60. It's a big year for us to celebrate our marriage, our age, and our ministry of helping families.
Doing this for 40 years means that we've also spent 40 years asking people to partner with us in our endeavors to help families. This isn't a "money appeal"….it's a "auction item appeal"!
One of those unique ways is to engage people's support, has been asking them to contribute items to our Silent Auction that will be held at our 21st Annual Dallas Dinner on Saturday, April 11th. 600 people will gather for a night to hear about the work of Heartlight and Parenting Today's Teens, and our hope is to raise $300,000 through donation and the silent auction.
Here's where I need your help.
The Silent Auction at this event is an opportunity for us to offer some great gifts, opportunities, experiences, and items to folks from all over the country. People will be bidding on everything from everywhere, so any item that would "sell" would fit into this auction.
It's our hope to put together "auction packages." For example, if someone donated a condo in another city, we'd package that with a dinner in that city along with airfare. Or if someone donated travel certificates and another concert tickets, we may send them to a special concert somewhere in the country. The variations are endless.
Would you take a few minutes to consider something? If you have any of the following, would you consider donating it to the auction? Or consider asking your favorite restaurant or hotel to donate something towards your favorite charity (well, one of them). Here's a listing of what we're looking for:
Sports Tickets
Time Shares
Special Event Tickets
Old Guitars
Sports Memorabilia
Autographed Items
Musical Instruments
Restaurant Certificates
Home on the Beach
Home in the Mountains
Home on the Range
Wine Packages
Airline Miles
Special Vacations
Trips or Hunts
You get the tax write off…the person bidding gets the item…and the Heartlight Foundation gets the donation for one of our best fundraisers. It's a "Win – Win – Win" for everyone! As mentioned, your gifts are tax-deductible as the Heartlight Ministries Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) organization. If you have an idea about something that you'd like to donate, please call my son, Adam Gregston at 972.342.4416, or firstname.lastname@example.com.
This event raises the funds needed to keep us on the air in radio. It keeps these newsletters coming. It provides for the Families in Crisis Seminars and keeps me on the road helping families through our seminars and conferences.
We're most grateful for your participation with us and for making this a successful event for the sake of parents and teens across North America. Thanks in advance for you help!

5 Qualities of a Good Rule
Years ago, we had several boys living with us in our home. They were assigned their own bathroom, but based on the worsening condition of those facilities, I realized these guys needed some help exercising maturity and self-control. I told them, "Fellas, from now on, you need to clean your own toilet and keep this bathroom tidy. If not, you could lose it." Unfortunately, they ignored the rule and the mess got even worse. So, one day, I just took the entire toilet out! The toilet needed to be replaced anyway, but the boys didn't need to know that. I thought not having it for a while would be a good learning experience for them.
When the boys got home from school, there was nothing but a little hole in the floor where the messy toilet used to stand. In disbelief, they asked me, "Where are we supposed to go?" I said, "I'm sorry, the rule was that you needed to keep the bathroom clean, and if you didn't, you couldn't have it." Well, after a few days of dealing with just a hole in the ground, the boys came back to me and asked, "What do we need to do to get our toilet back?" Once they experienced the consequences, they saw the value of the rule, and put in the work necessary to reclaim their bathroom.
Rules are not just about getting the chores done, cleaning the house (or making it smell better). Like the story of the boys' toilet, rules give us the opportunity to teach our teens important life principles about responsibility. So how do you know that the rules of your house are helping your kids instead of hurting them? Let me offer five essential characteristics of a good rule.
1. Rules Should Be Relevant
Boundaries that were necessary and acceptable when your child was seven will likely be outdated when he is seventeen. Good rules flex and grow along with your child. I believe that nothing good happens for a teenager after midnight, so curfews are a good boundary to establish. But while a 9 o'clock curfew is great for a 13-year-old, it's probably too early for a sixteen-year-old. Good rules help our teens learn to make good decisions for themselves and wean them from their dependency on mom and dad. This happens when our rules stay relevant and current with the age and maturity of our child.
2. Rules Should Be Attainable
As parents, we all want great things for our kids. Encouraging your son or daughter to succeed is good, but if reaching a particular expectation set up by mom and dad seems impossible, a teen will shut down, quit or rebel. Our rules should be about getting kids where they need to go, and keeping them from where they shouldn't be. So the rules we set up should be realistic and reasonable, allowing teens to fulfill (or maybe even exceed) expectations. You could reasonably say, "If you get a 'D' in any class, then we have to take away your cell phone for a week." That's a logical goal to shoot for. But if you insist, "Get straight A's or you lose your cellphone for a week!" that expectation may be too demanding for your teen. It would be unfair to make your 8-year-old mow the lawn every week. But it's an attainable goal to have your 14-year-old do some landscaping on the weekend. A good rule is always within reach for your child.
3. Rules Should Be Beneficial
Think about some of the rules in your house and ask yourself, "Will this help build up my kids' character and cause them to become more mature and responsible?" If the answer is "no", then you probably need to rethink that rule and your motivation for wanting to make it a rule. Good boundaries grow out of a good relationship with your child. It's not about exerting control, wielding authority, or keeping your teen under your thumb. You want to help your teen become a dependable and responsible adult, and the rules of your home should be designed to get your son or daughter to that place. If the rule is not helpful, it may be time to toss it aside.
4. Rules Should Make Sense
Mom and dad … rules need to make sense. We can all remember rules set down by our own parents that made no sense at all. I can remember being told I was not allowed to grow my hair past my earlobes. Even as a teen I asked, "Why not?" It wasn't because I was rebellious or wanted to shock people—I just wanted to fit in with the guys at my school who had cool, long hair. We need to listen to our teens and honestly hear their objections to some of the long-standing rules we've put in place. It's not enough to say, "Do it because I said so!" Your teen might not be able to understand how a rule is beneficial, but you should have a logical reason for every rule, and be able to explain that reason to your teenager. If not, the rule doesn't make sense and should be scrapped.
5. Rules Should Come From a Place of Love
I said it before, but it's so true—Rules without relationship lead to rebellion. If there is no love but a lot of boundaries, that's legalism, and kids feel stifled and smothered. If there is plenty of love but no boundaries, then there's no structure, and kids go out-of-control. Good rules grow out of a loving willingness to provide guidance.
We were playing paintball with some kids at Heartlight, and the teens love plastering me with paint. When we were finished, I was surprised to find one of the boys refusing to clean his equipment. I went up to him and said, "We had a good time, and you know the rule for the course—everybody cleans their own equipment." With a verbal onslaught, the young man told me he simply wasn't going to do that. I remained calm and said to him, "Now we have another problem. In addition to breaking the equipment cleaning rule, you are also being disrespectful." Then I laid out the consequences for breaking the rules. After a couple of days raking pine needles, the teen came to me and apologized. I brought the lesson home and reaffirmed him by saying, "You are a good man, but the way you responded in these situations hurts your relationships with the people you're closest to. I want something better for you. By the way, this lesson is not about cleaning the stupid paintball stuff. This is about helping you be successful in life."
It's true that a bad rule can hurt a child. But a good rule, in the hands of a loving parent, can be the best thing in the life of a teen.

Troubled Teen = Marital Trouble
During a past radio program, my guest Dr. Melody Rhode commented that the death of a child is such a catastrophic experience in the life of parents, it leads 90% of those marriages to fail. A shocking statistic, isn't it?
In my years of working with thousands of struggling teens and their parents, I've learned that parents of troubled teens experience a similar sense of grief and loss, and also a profound sense of betrayal from their teen. Perhaps their teen has run away or otherwise has totally abandoned the family and everything they hold dear. To these parents it may seem as though a "death" has occurred, and as such, it similarly puts a great deal of stress on their marriage.
Often, the crisis with a teen amplifies the true condition of a marriage, revealing its areas of weakness. A teen's acting out may actually be his unintentional way of forcing the adults in his life to deal with their obvious marital problems. It may be a relational problem that everyone in the family already knows exists – but is never talked about or addressed – or, it could simply be a lack of real love or respect in the relationship. Unfortunately, a parent who tends to be always absent, angry, too submissive or too strict may demonstrate these traits even more as they also have to deal with their teen's behavior. It can be overwhelming for any parent.
On the other hand, I've seen many parents (even parents who had previously divorced each other) band together when their teen experiences troubles. Contrary to the hopelessness of a death, these parents are hopeful that something can yet be done to help their teen. They know that more is at stake than their own needs. They know that this issue with their teenager is bigger and more important than their own issues. Therefore, they know they had better get their own act together, or their teen may be lost forever.
For married parents who want to help their teen through this crisis, it is critical to understand that dealing with a struggling teen can be hard on your marriage. Really hard! And the failure of your marriage in the midst of the turmoil can lead to even more dire consequences for your teenager. To help you avoid these destructive forces, I encourage you to take these proactive steps:
Preventing Marital Jeopardy for Parents of Troubled Teens
- See the experience as something you must manage together. Attend couples counseling, get outside help specifically for managing your stress. If one of you tends to choose isolation from the problem, or expresses anger inappropriately, address it with a professional. If you've never had reason or motivation to improve your relationship, keep in mind that saving your teen is a really good reason.
- Begin to share your feelings about what's happening in your family. Hiding your feelings from your spouse, or not talking about your fears, anxieties, or worries only isolates you from the problem.
- Present a united front to your teen, and one that insists your child treat both of you respectfully. This is a time when parenting comes from a love that is tough and remains strong, like that of a warrior ready to fight to keep a child from self-destruction. Treating each other respectfully is a first step.
- Identify how your teen's out of control behavior is specifically hurting your marriage relationship, and express your feelings openly to your spouse. Protect your spouse's feelings and don't share them with others.
- Don't expect your spouse to fill the void left by your teen's wrong choices or absence.
- Don't expect your spouse to change. Instead, focus on changing yourself.
- Don't vent your frustrations on anyone else in the family, especially your spouse. Find other ways to vent that don't include relationship-bashing.
- Don't blame each other for the trouble you are experiencing with your teen. Blame will help no one at this point and in fact will feed your teen's problems.
- Find other parents who are experiencing similar issues with their teen, and spend time with them. Relate your struggles and give them the chance to do the same. It may be difficult to find others who are willing to engage in such a private discussion, so you be willing to start the discussion, if needed. Attend conferences, like our Gathering at Heartlight, to help you gain insight and understand that you are not alone in this struggle.
- Respond instead of react to what comes your way. Take time to think it through before you make a decision, and make certain the decision is one you both support. Ask God's help in finding the right answers, and strength to do what's necessary.
- Don't avoid the pain – if you avoid dealing with the pain, you avoid finding a solution. Examine the feelings of loss, betrayal, sorrow, or anger, and ask God to come alongside to bear your burdens.
- Make decisions together as much as possible in regard to your teen, but don't undermine your spouse's decisions even if they are not discussed in advance. Recognize that there are things your spouse will do differently, and let it become a strength. Try to support their style of parenting, even if it's not always what you would do, or how you would do it.
- Keep looking to the other side of the struggle. Be patient. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and it is God. Find hope in your relationship with God, and move in the direction He leads, knowing the struggle with your child will eventually end and the teen who gives you the hardest time is often the one you'll end up relating to best down the road.
Above all, know this: teens in crisis are experts at pitting one parent against another, creating a wedge in order to deflect attention away from their own bad behavior. So, at a time like this, be aware that you will be challenged with more marital problems. If you keep in mind where those stressors are coming from and also take to heart the steps I've outlined above, it could save your marriage.

Me and My Struggling Teen
Have you ever asked yourself, "What on earth does God have in mind by allowing both me and my teen to struggle so?"
I often see Christians who believe that parenting according to scriptural values, taking their kids to church every time the doors are open, and promoting family togetherness means that all will be well in the teenage years. Like buying an insurance plan, they think that doing the right things will bring about the right result.
Let me tell you, based on years of experience with struggling teens and their parents, that this thinking is just plain wrong. Never assume that applying a continuous moral or religious presence in your child's life will in itself bring about a perfect transition from childhood to adulthood. It can help and should be encouraged, but it is no guarantee. The often quoted scripture "train up a child in the way he should go" says nothing about the turbulent teenage years. In fact, you'll want to remember that some biblical characters with seemingly perfect spiritual upbringings had difficulties themselves in their teenage years.
Stuff happens that is out of our control as parents, and even if we do everything right, stuff still happens. One angelic teenager can lead us to think that we have found the right formula, right up until we see our next child go down a completely different path. Welcome to the real world — where God gives each of our children a free will.
And, welcome to the one thing in life over which you have absolutely no control. It may be the first time in your life that you have to lean on God completely. And that's not all bad.
Could this Time Be God's Challenge to You?
In the heart of any parenting struggle there is usually more that we can learn. For instance, could God want us to know Him more fully? Could we benefit from a different perspective and have a better understanding of how to help other kids or parents? Could this difficult time reveal areas of our lives that need to change?
The point is, in God's economy there is always a point to the pain. So allow God to use this time to move you along to a better place or to develop your own character.
Consider Psalm 139:23-24, "Search me oh God, and know my anxious thoughts, and see if there is any hurtful way in me, and lead me in paths of righteousness."
In addition, think about Matthew 7:4-5, "How can you say, 'My friend, let me take the speck out of your eye,' when you don't see the log in your own eye? You're nothing but show-offs! First, take the log out of your own eye. Then you can see how to take the speck out of your friend's eye."
Do you have something that needs attention in your own life at the same time as you seek help for your teen? If so, remember this…it could have lasting benefits that go far beyond this difficult period. You will learn to trust God in a very real way.
> You will learn how to become a good listener — one who waits to be invited.
> You will grow spiritually, become more self-controlled, slower to speak, slower to anger.
> You will realize that God is still dependable, even when everything seems out of control.
> You will learn the extent of God's great love for you.
> You will develop wisdom that is useful for the next generation in your family.
> Other parents will benefit from watching you handle your struggle in the right way.
> Out of desperation, you will stop faking your faith and make your dependence upon God real.
You see, the struggle is always partly about us, how we handle things and how we seek God's help in the midst of the storm. It will challenge and sharpen our beliefs and help us confront our fear of losing control. Stated in another way, it will help build our faith and dependence on God's every provision in our lives.
Aim Higher
Isn't it somewhat comforting to know that God may have a bigger purpose in it all for both you and your teen? If you believe that, then don't just focus on your teenager's struggles at this time. Step in front of a mirror and look for areas in your own life that need to grow, and aim to make those changes with God's help.
Take a moment right now to think about how God might be using your situation to reveal more about His character, and how that knowledge can help you in turn deal with your struggling teen.

Adopted Teen Troubles
Most adopted children that I've worked with have one question on their minds that is frankly unanswerable. The question creates an unfillable void, especially in the teen years. And that question is, "Why was I abandoned by my birth-mother?"
Adopted kids often carry a lot of emotional baggage and the new parents are often caught off guard by how their lovely adopted child acts out when reaching the teenage years. Many times the "new parents" are a reminder to that child of what she has lost, what she doesn't have, and what she misses. Thus, anger builds up over why she was abandoned more than about anything the adopted parents did or didn't do. The adopted parents just happen to be the convenient ones to take the brunt of her anger.
Dear Mark…We adopted our 16-year old daughter when she was 7 years old in hopes of giving her a better life. We do not have much money, but we do try to reward her good deeds, which are few and far between at this point in her life. Now she has serious behavioral (and moral) problems. We are at our last hope for helping her. Is there any way you can help us?
Mark's Answer: What you have done, by adopting this beautiful girl, is an honorable thing. You are to be applauded for what you have done, as you really have had input into her life….you might just not see the fruit of your labor for awhile. Just because she is responding the way she is right now doesn't mean that the adoption was wrong. It just means that you might not have been prepared for what you are facing. Most parents adopt with the best of intentions, and with a set of high hopes that they indeed are giving their child a better life. You are doing the right thing by seeking help and not giving up.
Several of our teen residents at Heartlight are adopted children, which goes to show how prevalent these issues are among adopted kids.
Anger comes from loss or when we don't get what we think we want. Your daughter is angry because she hasn't gotten what she thinks she wanted–her real mom and dad. She is fantasizing about a world of perfection where everything is okay. They really do believe that if they had not been given up and had a normal natural family, then everything would be fine and she wouldn't have the "emptiness" she feels.
I've seen this dynamic at work many, many times, and I can say that, eventually, your daughter will understand it as well and be remorseful for how badly she's been treating you. This is just not a conclusion she will likely come to in her teen years.
Meanwhile, you still have to deal with and control her behavior. Just keep in mind that while behavior has to be contended with, it is a symptom, not the main issue with an adopted child. And usually, you have to handle the real issues and the symptoms at the same time.
So here are some suggestions:
1. Your understanding of your child's issues will help you respond differently to your child's actions. Perhaps this would be a good time to meet with a counselor yourself to get some direction and input.
2. Your child needs some outside reinforcement. She needs to meet with someone outside of your family who she has or can connect with, and get some perspective that is supportive of your love, concern, and longings for her.
3. She's capable of handling her behavior. At some point (and it sounds like you are now there) some lines must be drawn. She should be told that you will no longer allow the type of behavior you are currently seeing. Issues of respect, honesty, and obedience are key.
4. Reward the good behavior, and allow consequences to have their full affect for inappropriate behavior. Give her an IPOD on some good days, so you can take it away on the bad days. Pay for her cell phone when you have good weeks or months so that misses the privilege of a phone when you take it away during the bad weeks or months.
5. Moral issues are secondary at this time and may be more fluff than reality. Most of the time, these issues pass and will "right" themselves. It is something that should be discussed with her counselor. She may be saying shocking things to get back at you or just to show everyone that she has control of her life. So many times, teens will pick lifestyles that are their choice, just to try to prove that they can control their out-of-control life.
6. It takes two to fight. Don't fight! Let her know that this is not what your family is about and that you will not engage in the childish fighting that she is trying to draw you into.
7. Lastly, hang in there. No act of kindness goes unnoticed, even when you don't think that she is seeing it. Remember, the Bible teaches, "…you will reap from what you sow….in due time." We all get frustrated with the part about "due time." It never seems to be on our schedule….and never quick enough.
If you do nothing more than give your child a taste of what it means to have a normal life, then you are doing a good thing. If she only learns that God is one who loves her and will never give her up, then you have created an environment for her to learn some pretty significant lessons.
God has a bigger plan than what you see…pray that He will show you a little more of what He's doing. He will. And as always, thank you for adopting this child. No matter how hard it is right now, realize that you have already had a huge positive impact on her life and she will come around, eventually.

Parenting Teens with Grace
When a teenager's behavior is way out of line, when he or she crosses established boundaries and offends us and makes us angry, it is easy to think he or she doesn't deserve grace. But that may be exactly the right time to give it.
Grace – given at just the right moment – has the power to change the direction of any struggle, and may ultimately bring it to an end. Grace can bring healing, restoration, and redirect your teen's path.
A biblical definition of grace is this: God's undeserved favor and forgiveness when we've chosen the unforgivable. In human terms, grace is an act of kindness, love, and forgiveness in the face of bad behavior or poor choices. For your teen, it can even extend to outright rebellion and rotten attitudes.
I recently worked with a teen who rarely received grace at home. He was angry, all the time, and spewed anger on everyone and everything around him, including the side of my van. Instead of having him arrested for bashing my vehicle with a baseball bat, I sat him down and told him he was forgiven, he wouldn't be arrested, and that we were going to work things out differently from now on.
As we began to talk, tears came to his eyes. He had never experienced that kind of forgiveness in the face of his anger, and he couldn't believe I didn't have the police waiting to take him to jail. Giving him grace, at just the right moment, went a long way to change the direction he was headed, and in the end, after a lot of work, he successfully completed the Heartlight program.
Grace When it is Least Deserved
How do you know exactly the right time to extend grace? How about when it's least deserved? I guess that's how you'll know it's grace – because it won't feel good – in fact, it may be enough to put you in a really bad mood. I didn't enjoy having a smashed-in van. I didn't like having to pay for the repairs. But that's the nature of grace. It doesn't feel good when you're giving it, it's costly, but you are never more like Christ than when you offer it.
As believers, we should understand grace-giving. After all, didn't God love us so much that while we were sinners He sent His Son to die for us? He took our place for the penalty of sin. That kind of grace didn't come easily, but we can learn from it and imitate it.
Grace is Not Meant to Enable Bad Behavior
Seeking grace in parenting doesn't mean we allow bad behavior to continue unchecked. That's not grace. That's enabling or empowering our child to keep up their bad behavior without fear of consequences. As I've talked about many times, the pain of consequences is what causes all of us to take notice of our bad behavior -so we make a change. Some say that pain is a terrible part of God's creation, but the fact is, without it we'd never change. Pain keeps us in check and tells us when something is wrong.
Grace Can be Misunderstood by Others
The biblical story of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-22) is a good illustration of a father who extended grace without enabling. It wasn't easy to see his son leave, and as the story goes, the son only came to his senses when he had wasted all of his inheritance and hit bottom. The father still welcomed him back into the family, but to our knowledge, he didn't offer the son more money or enable him to go back to an unfruitful lifestyle.
But giving grace isn't always popular. Remember the sibling in the story – the good son? He questioned his father's decision to extend grace to his prodigal brother. After all, he had stayed behind to help the family while the prodigal was off seeking pleasure. Even though the decision was unpopular, the father gave grace and most likely did so not just because his son returned, but because the he wisely saw that his son had finally come to his senses.
Remember, Giving Grace is…
- Most often needed when it is least deserved
- Doesn't directly benefit the giver
- Can be misunderstood by others
- Doesn't enable bad behavior to continue
- Is best when it is offered at just the right time
- Comes from a desire for a new direction, understanding your child's heart, and his need to be restored.
We are never more like Christ than when we give our teen grace in the face of a struggle. And, giving grace when it surely is not deserved may change the direction of the struggle, or even bring it to an end.

Durand Eastman Park
Durand Eastman Park is a large park located partly in Rochester, New York, and partly in Irondequoit, New York. It is administered by the Monroe County Parks Department under agreements with the City of Rochester and the Town of Irondequoit.
The park contains several lakes. The two largest are Durand Lake and Eastman Lake. The park's northern boundary is defined by 5,000 ft[1] of Lake Ontario coastline. The most commonly used parts of the park are part of Rochester; the more remote areas are part of Irondequoit. The park is almost completely surrounded by Irondequoit, and is connected to Rochester by an easement.
Durand-Eastman Park was formally dedicated on May 22, 1909.[2] Historically, the beach at Durand-Eastman was much wider than it is today. In 1915, bath houses were built on the lakeshore. They became unusable in 1949 due to rising water levels.[2] The building was eventually demolished. There once was a zoo in the park, home to numerous animals. At the turn of the century, Dr. Henry S. Durand owned a summer camp in Irondequoit. He and his friend George Eastman saw a need for a public park in the area, and towards this end, bought a number of farms around the Durand property. On January 28, 1907, they offered their land to the city of Rochester, "to be used as a public park forever, a tract of land of about 484 acres situate in the Town of Irondequoit on Lake Ontario," thus giving the common citizen rights to nearly a mile of public beach and adjacent lands on the Lake's shoreline. A year later the land was transferred to the city, and on May 22, 1909, Durand Eastman Park was formally dedicated.
In 1961, the City of Rochester made a 99-year agreement with the County of Monroe to maintain, administer and regulate Durand-Eastman Park. This agreement was later modified in 1975, but forms the basis for Durand-Eastman being a County Park.[3] In 2001, the City of Rochester sold the 90.9 acres along the western edge of Durand-Eastman Park, commonly known as Camp Eastman, to the Town of Irondequoit.[4]
Durand-Eastman School has a variety of trees and wildflowers. A 1937 source claims that the park "contains 395 varieties of native and foreign trees, shrubs, and plants."[5]
The park's Slavin Arboretum contains an impressive collection of trees.[6]
Deer, raccoon, Eastern Gray Squirrels, turkey, and chipmunks are common animals in the park.
Recreation and facilities[edit]
The park has a municipal golf course, built as a 9 hole course in 1917,[2] that was redesigned by Robert Trent Jones in 1933. Now it has 18 holes and a club house. There are hiking trails. Swimming was permitted at the park's Lake Ontario beach in 2006 for the first time in forty years. On May 26, 2007, the beach opened for the second straight season.The swimming area is slightly larger this year, extending an additional 25 yards west. The beach is staffed by lifeguards, groundspeople, and security personnel.[7]
The legend of the White Lady exists in Durand Eastman Park.[8]

El Rancho Pizzeria: El Rancho Sucko
Ambience was good. Crowded. Outdoor seating.
Service- horrible. Sodas came first. Water took an hour.
Food took forever.
Pizza came out in about 30 minutes, the next 4 plates came out with out silverware, 1 1/2 hours after we sat. 5 more minutes to receive silverware, food on the verge of being cold.
Final dish came out 10 minutes later without silverware again.
Waitress unapologetic.
We are not impatient people but this was verging on ridiculous.
Our first time being so inspired to write a review.
We thought we were on the tv show "The Boiling Point".
Afraid to order dessert and stay until midnight.
Got there at 6:30, left at 9:00.
Favorite Dish: The fish was good but the rest was not very good.
Pizza could be better.
Fried Chicken was mystery pieces.
Churrasco...how do you say "chewy" in spanish?

Restaurant El Massier
This was my favourite and was recommended to me by other travellers.
It has a cozy family like atmosphere, very friendly owners serving you with great care and wonderful prices, almost half as much as in the other restaurants. Food includes Panamanian and Chinese recipes and definitely has a home made taste. There are noodles, salads made of organic vegetables and rich milk shakes! Their soups are great as well as everything I tried there. Try their home made desserts!
In the morning I sat at the outside tables and watched locals go by trying to deduct personal information from small details. I took some shots, too.
Delicious mains cost 2-3$, juices less than a dollar and coffee is at 0.50$!
You will see it standing alone on the main road on your right side going towards the west end of the town.

Crater's Johannes will not return as coach
Only days removed from the end of the winter sports season, Crater High School is already in the process of hiring a boys basketball coach after...
Dan Jones"> 145~2325~1000266~
The final days were the hardest.
Phoenix senior tennis standout Wil Cochrane sat next to William Martin at the hospital during his pal's last stand.
Martin, aka Uncle Bill, mostly slept, which was odd to see. Usually, he brandished a dry wit and a curmudgeon attitude (which didn't fool anyone who knew him), but esophageal cancer drained him.
Seeing a weak Uncle Bill was like seeing defeated superhero. It doesn't seem possible until it happens.
Martin, born Nov. 27, 1939, passed away Feb. 23, 2012.
The close family friend's departure was like a punch in the gut to the hard-hitting 17-year-old Cochrane, who was named after William.
"It was hard for Wil to deal with," says Andy Cochrane, Wil's dad. "Especially toward the end when he was so sick."
Even before Martin's passing, Wil had decided to create a tennis tournament focused on raising cancer awareness for his senior project. The plan was for Martin — whom Wil called Uncle Bill — to attend and be honored as a survivor, but those plans changed. Cochrane faced a future that included only memories of the man.
Replacing his sadness with inspiration, the Portland State University signee has continued his work in creating the Uncle Bill's Cancer Awareness Tournament, which will take place May 12 at Rogue Valley Swim & Tennis Club.
The proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society.
The doubles tournament will include men's, women's and mixed groupings.
Those interested can pick up sign-up forms beginning today at Rogue Valley Swim & Tennis Club, Ashland Tennis & Fitness Club and Rogue Valley Country Club. The cost is $40 per doubles team.
Cochrane, last year's Class 4A/3A/2A/1A state runner-up, has stayed plenty busy preparing. Already, his efforts have helped to raise $2,000.
"Making the draws, organizing the schedule so that it runs smoothly, having enough tennis balls, getting the word out," Cochrane says, noting just a few of his tasks.
And all the while, he's been thinking about Uncle Bill.
Wil and Andy both cherished Martin, who was an avid local fisherman with a knowledge of industrial and commercial heating equipment that was second to none.
Martin learned his lifetime trade as a boilermaker while on active duty in the Navy from 1959 to 1963.
Over the years, he grew a reputation for his willingness to offer a helping hand. Martin sometimes came across as a little grumpy, but there was almost always a joke or laugh that accompanied any grumbling.
"He wasn't afraid to say what was on his mind," says Wil, who grew up around Bill. "But behind the hard shell and humor there was a very sweet guy who loved and took care of his family."
Andy met Martin for the first time at a restaurant in Ashland in the early 1980s. When Martin saw the younger Andy, he called him a hippie and told him to get a haircut.
"That first encounter didn't go so well," Andy says.
But then Andy — who had lost his father when he was very young and a brother when he was a teenager — got to know Martin.
"He was a brother, a dad and a friend to me," Andy says. "He was just one of those guys that always did the right thing and always wanted the people around him to do the right thing."
Wil says he hopes Uncle Bill is proud.
Andy sure is.
"I think it's awesome," Andy says. "I get tears in my eyes thinking about how proud I am of him."
To sponsor the tournament or for more information, contact Wil Cochrane at 541-944-0631, or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Sentencing panel slashes jail time for drug offendersJuly 19, 2014 12:00 AM
Share with others:
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Sentencing Commission voted Friday to slash the sentences of 46,000 inmates serving time for drug offenses, the latest move by federal officials to ease decades-old policies that have clogged the nation's prisons.
If the decision is not blocked by Congress, nearly half of federal prisoners incarcerated for drug crimes will be eligible for sentence reductions averaging more than two years. It would take effect starting Nov. 1, 2015.
The commission decided in April to reduce future sentences. Friday's vote extends the same approach retroactively to those already serving time.
Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. originally asked the commission, a group of judges and other lawyers who establish sentencing policies, to take a much narrower approach that would affect 20,000 inmates. Although Mr. Holder has been a strong advocate of sentence reductions, his more cautious approach on this issue reflected strong opposition from some prosecutors to reductions in sentences they had personally overseen, according to a Justice Department official who asked for anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.
But the Justice Department was able to negotiate a compromise that postponed the effective date for a year, allowing a slower, more deliberate approach to weed out inappropriate candidates, the official said. The change is likely to diminish but not eliminate the opposition within the ranks. "Some hard-liners still don't like this outcome," the official said.
Mr. Holder said Friday that he supports the new policy. "This is a milestone in the effort to make more efficient use of our law enforcement resources and to ease the burden on our overcrowded prison system," he said in a statement.
Judge Patti B. Saris, chairwoman of the commission, said: "This amendment received unanimous support from commissioners because it is a measured approach. It reduces prison costs and populations, and responds to statutory and guidelines changes since the drug guidelines were initially developed, while safeguarding public safety."
No prisoner would be released until a judge reviews the individual's case to determine whether a reduced sentence poses a risk to public safety.
The House and Senate would have to vote by Nov. 1 to block the plan. But there has been bipartisan support in both chambers for a broad change in prison policies, and Obama administration officials do not expect a concerted effort to change the commission's new policy.
The movement to reform prison policies has been taken up by Mr. Holder with great enthusiasm. But it actually started in the states, including conservative states such as Texas, whose budgets were suffering from the cost of prison construction and housing thousands of inmates.United States government - United States Congress - Eric Holder - United States House of Representatives - Tribune Company

By Anna Merlan
At first, Where the Money Is appears to resemble another recent geezer vehicle -- Kirk Douglas' Diamonds. Both involve old men who have strokes and who set out to reclaim a lost stash. But that's where the similarities end. While Diamonds was essentially a sentimental family tale, this one is a lightweight, by-the-numbers caper film that tries to have it every which way -- acknowledging Newman's years while suggesting that he still can attract women roughly half his age.
The star plays Henry, an over-the-hill bank robber serving a long stretch in prison. When Henry has a debilitating stroke and the prison hospital is overcrowded, he is shipped off to private convalescent home. He seems to be a total vegetable, unresponsive to anything. But nurse Carol (Linda Fiorentino) begins to suspect that Henry's not quite as bad off as he seems. In fact, she begins to suspect he's faking. She tries being sultry and seductive; she tries making loud noises. But Henry doesn't even flinch. In a final test that defies credibility, she manages to force Henry into action. She was right all along: Having studied yoga, Zen detachment, and self-hypnosis in the prison library, Henry has been faking. His plan is to escape the no-security facility and reclaim his share of the proceeds from his last job, which comprises more than enough money to get out of the country and assume a new identity. Of course, something is screwed up: The money is gone, leaving Henry without a plan.
Release Date:
April 14
Screenplay by E. Max Frye and Topper Lilien & Carroll Cartwright; story by E. Max Frye
Luckily, Carol has a few plans of her own. Bored to tears by her job, her life, and her husband, Wayne (Dermot Mulroney), she is energized by the presence of an honest-to-God bank robber. She convinces a skeptical, but desperate, Henry to go in with her on an armored-car heist. They have to let Wayne in on the deal. But this creates a new set of problems: Henry may be old enough to be Wayne's grandfather, but Wayne is still jealous of the attention Carol gives Henry. And, as it develops, probably not without cause.
Where the Money Is slips by quickly enough, but it never engages our interest more than passingly. It's another placeholder in the stalled career of British director Marek Kanievska, who made a fine debut in 1984 with Another Country and promptly slid downhill with Less Than Zero (1987); this is his first feature since then.
It's hard to know whether to blame the movie's failings on Kanievska or on the screenwriters: Nobody involved seems to have the requisite touch for a heist film. There is only minimal suspense, and the spirit of the affair seems sodden: Mulroney's character is such a pill that he drags the energy level down every time he's on screen. The mechanics of the caper itself aren't particularly inventive, and it takes two-thirds of the movie to get there. Meanwhile, time is wasted with padding such as a pre-credit sequence that is pointlessly in black and white and ultimately without any payoff.
All that we're left with is Newman's charisma and Fiorentino's sexiness. Together they're only enough to raise the level of the experience to tolerable. And it's impossible not to keep noticing the age disparity between the two leads. It seemed like a big deal in Twilight that Newman was cast opposite "older" women -- Susan Sarandon and Stockard Channing -- who were only two-thirds as old as him. That Fiorentino is only a few years north of half his age might not have been so distracting...if there had been anything else memorable or diverting in the whole enterprise.

Still, four in ten (40 percent) say the security procedures are really not deterring or catching anyone who wants to carry out an act of terrorism.
– Travellers from India (53 percent), Turkey (51 percent), Spain (45 percent) and the US (43 percent) are most likely to say that the procedures are "too invasive" whereas travellers from Germany (15 percent), South Africa (16 percent) and Australia (18 percent) are least likely to agree the procedures are "too invasive".

All About Savings - Why Should Businesses Want to Save Money?
PR Newswire
ALTRINCHAM, England, July 1, 2013
ALTRINCHAM, England, July 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
A basic knowledge of economic theory is all it takes to understand that over an extended period of time the condition of the economy is subject to fluctuation. Boom follows recession which follows boom and so forth.
What's interesting about this "economic cycle" is that many companies perform extremely well during the upturn when the flow of money through an economy is at a peak. But why is it that the same companies and boards of directors aren't in a position to keep their businesses afloat when that inevitable dive occurs?
It could be fair to argue that they may fall foul of a common mistake in business that many entrepreneurs have been guilty of. Keeping too close an eye on revenues whilst neglecting to notice what is leaving the bank has historically been in many business owner's "top five list of things that nearly lost me everything".
What we know and understand at All About Savings is that it's just as important to ensure your business' costs are as low as they can possibly be so that a greater proportion of revenue generated can fall under that all important accounting heading: profit.
Although not as exciting as taking on a sizeable new customer, deciding to cut back on what you spend to make the business tick is always a good business decision. Especially when it can be done without any expense. Furthermore, if you're charged with maintaining shareholder value, keeping a strict eye on costs is without doubt a responsibility.
Key Areas for Potential Savings in a Business
- Telecoms
- Gas
- Electricity
Business Telecoms
Despite the onset of remarkable technological advancements in the 21st century, the telephone remains the primary tool through which businesses communicate.This makes telecoms something that isn't likely to become obsolete overnight.
Given that your business is most certainly going to need a telecoms provider in some shape or form, it makes perfect sense to consider your options. This is especially true when there are hundreds of companies out there with the desire to provide good quality telecoms services at prices that make your profit and loss account look much healthier.
Under the heading of telecoms falls internet connectivity which is undoubtedly something the majority of most SMEs are going to need to some degree and something every large company could not survive without.
It has been noted on forums and discussion boards that switching from one provider to another isn't simply a choice led by price. Other complications such as downtime during the switchover and the anxiety associated with the thought of losing internet access for a day and being left in technological limbo are genuine reasons for people not wanting to make the switch, even though significant savings are there for the taking.
All About Savings can manage the switchover process for you and take away that stress.
Business Gas
Gas supply has some peculiar features in that when you choose your provider, you're not making any decisions in relation to the actual product you receive. Regardless of provider you decide to use, the same gas will arrive at your premises so it makes sense to secure not only the best available price but also the most favourable contractual agreement.
All About Savings have a relationship with key gas suppliers and can guarantee you the best possible gas deal by considering your usage, preferences and avoiding rollover contracts that can lead to you paying more. By visiting the website http://www.allaboutsavings.co.uk/business-gas/ you'll find information about how the you can get the best possible gas deal with a guarantee that if you find a better deal, it will be matched.
All About Savings will:
- Compare companies across the business gas market
- Handle the switchover process
- Save you money
Business Electricity
As with gas, All About Savings are able to work on your behalf to find the best possible energy supplier and arrangement.
On top of this there are a number of additions that can help reduce and manage your electricity usage. The first of these are known as half-hourly meters and they're required by businesses that consume 100kW in any given 30 minute period although this isn't a minimum requirement. What's useful with a half-hourly meter is the accurate reporting back to your energy supplier, which is an excellent bargaining chip for negotiating bespoke and preferable electricity prices.
Some premisesmay already have this type of meter installed and we urge you to check if this is the case by consulting our simple guide here: http://www.allaboutsavings.co.uk/business-electricity/half-hourly-meters/
Being efficient in controlling your energy costs requires knowledge of what you're spending and when. A Smart Meter is the technology aiming to fulfill this requirement and is expected to be commonplace across the UK by 2019.
A Smart Meter is able to send data directly back to your energy supplier via WiFi which takes away the worry of receiving an estimated bill that doesn't accurately reflect your usage and inevitably turns out to be higher than an accurate reading. Owing to the WiFi connection you often have the ability to monitor your own usage which can help identify patterns in your usage and help you change bad habits that translate into higher usage.
Utility Companies are Still Businesses Subject to the Laws of Supply and Demand
Although the media purports an image of energy companies holding the nation's fuel supplies to ransom, companies such as Eon, British Gas and EDF are still subject to competition (albeit a rather complicated model) and need to offer a competitive price in order operate in the market successfully.
This means good energy deals are out there, we just need to look around. Luckily, All About Savings are willing to do this for you. All you need to do is get in touch.

Just a few fun facts about me:
When I book a vacation the first thing I plan is all the places I want to eat. It's pretty frightening how much I love ice cream. I enjoy being active, reading, and cooking. Traveling is the only thing I will go into debt for. I'm passionate about local, slow food and am very conscious of where my food comes from. My fiance really is my best friend and my corgi, Elton, is definitely the cutest dog on the planet. I'll try almost anything twice and I want to see as many places in the world as possible before I die.
