Tarpons Springs Fla--Boating Accident Leaves 1 Injured & 1 Missing in Gulf
Crash into marker leaves boater missing
The other man on the boat was knocked unconscious. When he came to, his shipmate was gone.

TARPON SPRINGS - As dusk gave way to night Wednesday, Anthony Stevens called a friend to say he would be home soon.
It had been a good day on the water, but Stevens and Randall Peacock were motoring toward the mouth of the Anclote River. He estimated they would be at the dock in 20 minutes.
Soon after, in the dark, Peacock's 22-foot Mako boat struck channel marker No. 38 about a mile off shore. The marker, on a 10-foot steel post, ripped into the right side of the hull, leaving a gash 3 feet deep and a foot wide. It cut through the fiberglass.
Peacock, 42, of Tarpon Springs later told his wife that he was thrown into the front of the boat and knocked unconscious. He came to - he doesn't know how much later - to find himself covered in blood.
Stevens, 26, was gone.
Divers and pilots from local, state and federal agencies searched the area south of Anclote Key on Wednesday night and during the day Thursday without success. Thursday afternoon, four divers from the Pasco County Sheriff's Office covered an area 100 feet out all the way around the marker. They found nothing more than a few pieces of debris.
"If he'd have been there, we'd have found him," sheriff's Sgt. Charlie Ellison said. The U.S. Coast Guard, Customs Service and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission also took part in the search.
Along with searching for Stevens, officials were trying to piece together what happened Wednesday night. A friend said Stevens called him sometime after 9 p.m. Authorities learned of the emergency about 10 p.m.
"We're trying to corroborate physical evidence with witness statements," said Gary Morse, a conservation commission spokesman.
Peacock told officials he was not steering at the time of the accident, Morse said.
The boat was going more than 15 mph, "a high rate of speed," he said. There is no speed limit in the waterway where the accident occurred. The channel marker has reflector tape.
"These buoys are relatively easy to see if you're looking for them," Morse said.
He said the boat had a spotlight and radar onboard, and that both could have picked up the marker. But he did not know if they were working.
The men were not wearing life jackets, he said. The water around the marker is 11 to 14 feet deep, Ellison said.
The collision left Peacock with a concussion, whiplash, many bruises and a cut on his forehead that took 10 stitches to close. He was treated at Helen Ellis Memorial Hospital and released, said his wife, Shannon Peacock.
Mrs. Peacock said her husband has been distraught since the accident. He told her that after he awakened on the boat, he searched for Stevens, then dived overboard and swam around looking for him, returning to the boat when it started to drift away. He had to work on the damaged radio to call the Coast Guard and set off flares to help rescuers find the boat.
He called her from the hospital, saying, "He's missing. You have to find him."
The Peacocks own Peacock's Professional Cleaning, which cleans newly built houses, and Stevens has worked for the couple on and off for three years.
Stevens grew up in Palm Harbor and also has worked as an auto and boat detailer, said his friend and housemate, Danny Walling of Tarpon Springs. He was getting ready to apply for a job with a lawn treatment company.
"He's a good guy," said Walling, who also called him a big Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan and a lover of the outdoors.
As searchers returned to the dock at the Anclote River Park late Thursday afternoon, Walling said he was disturbed that they didn't stay out longer.
A few miles away, Mrs. Peacock said Stevens' friends were talking about organizing their own search in the hope that he survived. She hopes that he made it to one of the sandbars off shore where a boater could find him.
"You never know," she said. "You never think the worst. I'm just going to do what I can to try to find him. . . . He could have drifted into the mangroves and be hanging onto the wood and be hurt. I know he's a fighter."

Coast Guard Suspends Search for Missing Boater
Naples Daily News
Coast Guard suspends search for missing boater
Saturday, August 2, 2003
Associated Press
ANCLOTE KEY The Coast Guard suspended their search Thursday for a man thrown overboard when his boat hit a fixed navigational marker the previous night.
The search was stopped at 8:25 p.m. after a helicopter and several small vessels scoured more than 100 square miles over two days.
Coast Guard Group St. Petersburg received the distress call at 10:20 p.m. Wednesday from the owner of a 22-foot Mako vessel, who reported crashing into a marker about 1 1/2 miles southeast of Anclote Key. His passenger was ejected from the vessel.
The Coast Guard launched a Jayhawk helicopter and a search and rescue boat to search for the missing boater. The Florida Wildlife and Conservation Commission is investigating the accident, according to Coast Guard Petty Officer Judy Silverstein.
The boaters' identities have not yet been released.
Fixed navigational markers are made of steel and tell boaters which direction to travel.
Anclote Key is approximately 21 miles northwest of Tampa.09-11 .. 343 "All Gave Some..Some Gave ALL" God Bless..R.I.P.

Missing Boater Found
ST. Petersburg Times--State
Missing boater's body found
The body was seen in the water near Anclote Key. A family member identified the 26-year-old man Saturday night.

They've been living somewhere between hope and grief, doing the only thing they could do: search.
In the water. On the islands. Through the mangroves.
Looking for Anthony Stevens.
He had been lost at sea since Wednesday evening, when the 22-foot Mako he was traveling in slammed into a channel marker near Anclote Key.
About 3:45 p.m. Saturday, a boater saw the body of a man floating in the water near Anclote Key.
The Coast Guard took the body to shore, and investigators tried to determine whether it was Stevens.
Meanwhile, his family waited.
"We're hanging in there," said Stevens' father, Donald. "We're still in limbo."
By 8 p.m., they knew: It was Stevens, a 26-year-old who grew up in Palm Harbor, loved the outdoors and rooted for his favorite team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Inside a house in Tarpon Springs, the man who owned the boat, Randall Peacock, 42, was shaken, distraught and depressed. His head was swollen and his ears ached - injuries from the accident.
Peacock has told investigators that Stevens was driving the boat as they traveled toward the mouth of the Anclote River.
When they hit the marker, Peacock was thrown to the front and knocked unconscious, according to his wife, Shannon. He awakened bloody and confused, and did not see Stevens.
He dived overboard, but could not find his friend, Shannon Peacock said. He radioed for help.
Shannon Peacock said on Saturday evening that she had not yet told her husband the news.
"I can't get him to eat," she said. "He's in a deep depression."
The Peacocks own Peacock's Professional Cleaning, which cleans newly built houses, and Stevens has worked for the couple during the past three years.
The couple visited Stevens' family on Friday, and they tried to comfort Peacock.
"They were really good to my husband," Shannon Peacock said. "They told him they know it was an accident, that they don't blame him for anything. It's just so hard for him."
Since Stevens disappeared, the Coast Guard, sheriff's deputies and scores of friends have been searching the Gulf of Mexico, about 11 to 14 feet deep around channel marker No. 38, where the accident occurred.
The Coast Guard suspended its search Thursday evening, but friends continued. On Saturday, Stevens' two brothers spent hours on the water.
Initially, officers were not certain that the body was Stevens because his clothing description did not match the man in the water.
But on Saturday night, a family member identified Stevens, said Gary Morse, spokesman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
Morse said his officers, along with the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office, continue investigating the crash. They will try to determine precisely what happened and whether to file criminal charges, Morse said.
Stevens' body was turned over to the Medical Examiner's Office, which will determine the cause of death.09-11 .. 343 "All Gave Some..Some Gave ALL" God Bless..R.I.P.

There aren't many situations in the sporting world that are more exciting than a breakaway in hockey. It is hard to find a moment in a game that is more suspenseful than the one-on-one battle in hockey between the goaltender and the attacking player with the puck.
Depending on the player, there are several different things that can happen when trying to score on a breakaway. Some players go for the elaborate deke to confuse the goaltender, and to try and make the highlight reel play. For other players, the strategy is about as simple as it gets.
"I just try to see if there is an open spot, and then I try to put the puck in the back of the net," said Nashville Predators rookie forward Craig Smith.
While simple in theory, that strategy can be very effective. Breakaways make life difficult for a goaltender simply because of the unpredictability of the shooter. The shooter doesn't have the luxury of taking the time to plan a move. A decision has to be made, and it has to be made quickly.
"When you're on a breakaway, it's spur of the moment. You've got about half of a second to figure out what you're going to do before you get there," Smith said.
For goalies, being forced to try and make the save on the breakaway is obviously not the ideal situation. It's a lot easier to play effectively when the team is playing good defense in front and preventing the breakaway. However, goalies have to be ready at any time for a breakaway to occur. Once it's happening, all of the focus shifts toward reading the shooter.
"I just try to wait for them and see what they are going to do," said Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne.
Waiting can be a hard thing for goalies to do on a breakaway. There is no way of knowing what sort of move that the player is going to make beforehand, so letting the shooter make the first move can be a bit challenging.
"Sometimes it's hard to stay patient because guys are so quick on their moves, and they can shoot whenever, so you just have to be ready for that," Rinne said. "But I try not to think about too much. Just read and react."
Breakaways are definitely hectic for both the shooter and the goalie. But what happens when it's a penalty shot or a shootout? Does the mindset change?
"When you're on a breakaway in a game, it's a little different. You have to worry about somebody behind you so you have to keep your speed. In a shootout, you have more time to plan your move and more time to think," Smith said.
Given that players have more time to plan their moves in the shootout, there are a lot of players that use similar moves on almost every attempt. Those developed tendencies are studied by goaltenders, which seems to help them in the shootout.
"There are some patterns a lot of times with what guys are using. They seem to do the same kind of stuff that they've been successful with. A lot of times that helps when you've seen the clips from other games and you know what they've done in the past," Rinne said.
The numbers certainly reflect the overwhelming advantage goalies have in the shootout. During the 2010-2011 season, shooters only scored on 324 out of 1,059 shootout attempts around the league for the entire season, which is a success rate of only 30.59 percent. That means that goaltenders are stopping nearly 70 percent of all shootout attempts.
Regardless of whether it is a breakaway or a shootout, it's an exciting thing to watch. It's as much of a mental competition as it is a physical one. The battle between the crafty skill of the shooter and the incredible hand-eye coordination of a goaltender is something to behold. And that one-on-one struggle is what makes it so exciting, and so unique, in the world of sports.

So, if anyone needs an extra�. My bio: Dave, George, Frannie, et alii, have theorized that I may be rated �major� (but you know the rating system), which means I can play 75 AAA, 70 Major, 70 AAA, or one of three (3) 70 AA players (or younger - LOL). I�m �Florida eligible� or, if the 70�s, it would be in a �snowbird� status out of Ohio. My batting average � USUALLY � is between 700 and 750. And, if I hold my mouth right, with a gale force wind blowing out and the sun in the outfielders� eyes, I have occasional power. Love to play up the middle of the infield, but, since I still run okay, I�m assigned to the outfield (left, left center, or right center).

And it resolved itself after about three months. When you're playing, use the tape remedy. The how-to can be found on the internet. One suggestion which I didn't see was use of a rigid device on your foot when sleeping. It holds your foot in a fixed position. They're advertised at varying prices, but I found one at CVS for about $35.00. Good luck! It'll take a bit to heal. |

July 10, 2013 Player | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Lower Back Pain Home Remedies HJ is correct about the piriformis problem often being misdiagnosed. It's one of the six lateral rotators that is often forgotten when we stretch. We do our "hammies" and some others, but need to do these also. Some of us have the sciatic nerve grow inside of the piriformis, some have it grow outside of it, and others have it grow through the piriformis. This is one of the reasons it's misdiagnosed. Unfortunately, low back pain is often attributed to a skeletal problem when it is muscular. Hence, the rationale for stretching. Several such stretches for the piriformis can be found on the internet. Pick one and see if it helps, but don't start aggressively with any of them. |
May 21, 2013 Player | Topic: Bats Discussion: Solar Bat Warmes Most of the players that use these have made them. Make a small box (an old trunk lid works), use household aluminum foil on the inside, then cover with a clear plastic sheet (the big-box stores carry this). You can add props, feet, or set them against the fence. Like armiho211 suggested, cold balls (or wet ones) might be a problem though. |
March 6, 2013 Player | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: TOC 1billyd: Nothing new here. Last year in a SSUSA tourney, there was only one 70's major + team and one 65 major team in attendance. They had to play "even-up" with only the winner going to the TOC (the 65 major team). IMHO, both teams should have been invited. |

Our beautiful one-owner example is a 2009 GT model in Maverick Silver metallic over black leather. With only 50,806 (mostly highway miles) on the clock, this car still presents itself extremely well. Fully equipped with both the Premium and Sport Packages it features heated leather driver and passenger bucket seats with six-way power, rear center armrest with trunk access, a Blaupunkt AM/FM/XM with 6 disc in- dash changer, power steering, power windows, power trunk release, power mirrors and tilt and telescopic steering. It certainly exudes more than just a sense of sporting intention with its taunt body lines, dual inlet hood, fog lights, rear spoiler, quad exhaust tips and 8000 rpm tach and 180 mph speedometer. Cradled between those muscular fenders are a fuel-injected 6.0 liter (L76) V-8 delivering 355 horsepower and 385 lb/ft of torque to a six-speed 6L80 automatic and limited slip differential. Keeping all that action glued to the ground is an FE2 sport suspension consisting of McPherson struts, multi-link rear and four massive five-spoke factory aluminum wheels shod with ultra-sticky 245/40/ZR19 Michelin Pilot Sport all-season rubber. Of course when the action gets too hot; both ABS and Traction Control are standard and almost intuitively come to your rescue when needed. This is a wonderful opportunity to own one of Pontiac's truly great creations that really delivers both performance and comfort in one stylish package.

Gupta for Surgeon General...or so says the Washington Post.
It's a bold move, and maybe a worthy precedent. Here are some other ideas for remaining Obama administration posts:
Jack Bauer: National Intelligence Director
Ryan Seacrest: Director of the NEA
Sam Waterston: Solicitor General
Sergeant Slaughter: Secretary of Veterans Affairs
Sharon Osborne: Secretary of American Talent (new cabinet post)
In all truth, he's probably as well qualified as anyone for what is largely a P.R. job. And he's a legit neurosurgeon, apparently.
But it's still funny. And it might be a little tougher to make the jump to public figure after CNN has given him the Anderson-Cooper-treatment. (Gupta image from CNN - I added the seal.)
Any other ideas for folks who could make the leap from the small screen to the halls of actual power?
Jeff, you are just showing your age (or I am showing mine.)
Sanjay Gupta didn't start at CNN -- he started in the Clinton administration as special advisor to Hilary Clinton -- for the Health Care initiatives -- remember?
CNN has a habit of picking up old politicians as commentators.
Had he not joined CNN, he would still be on the list for surgeon general.
"Had he not joined CNN, he would still be on the list for surgeon general."
Seriously doubt that.
Gupta (who is 39 now) served as a "White House Fellow" (along with 14 others) in 1997, when he was in his late 20s, working mostly with the First Lady (on health policy). And if the press weren't reminding us of that now, I really doubt any of us would have remembered his name from those glory days. I don't think he was a big player.
But like I said, the Surgeon General is primarily a communicator. So Gupta might well be the right guy for the job.
I'm smiling because you are proving my point. I didn't get this information from a blog or some news source yesterday -- I remembered it.
I also remember when CNN hired him and paraded him around as Hillary's advisor -- they had no other justification for hiring him because he had no journalist credentials.
Now, he has made another name for himself, and yes, I can imagine that if you only associate him with "House Call", it must seem funny.
Preston, you have a good memory!
Either that, or you were also a White House Health Policy Fellow in 1997.
Secretary of Energy ~ Jack Lalanne (of Jack Lalanne's Power Juicer...anyone who has seen Mr. Lalanne's late-night infomercials can attest to his limitless energy!)
Secretary of Justice ~ Position will be jointly held by the entire cast of Night Court.
Secretary of Treasury ~ Suze Orman. 'Nuff said.
"Secretary" ~ Maggie Gyllenhaal. How hot would that be?
Also, Agents Mulder and Scully will run the FBI. Duh.

Professional Psychology: Research and Practice
Source ISSN
The field of professional psychology has been tremendously successful, although it has also been characterized by many competing preparadigmatic theoretical orientations, which have led to a great deal of contention as well as conflicting views regarding psychological development, functioning, and behavior change. There is now widespread agreement regarding scientific explanations of many psychological processes, however, and, consequently, it is time to update the basic conceptual frameworks used for professional psychology education and practice. Replacing the traditional reliance on an array of theoretical orientations with a science-based biopsychosocial framework would resolve many of the contradictions and conflicts that characterized the preparadigmatic era and would also provide a common perspective for unifying psychologists around a shared approach to practice, research, and training.

Year | 2003 |
Pages | 331-347 |
Keywords | Decapoda; Leucosiidae; Leucosia; Euclosia; new genus; new species; Indo-Pacific |
Abstract | A study of the genus Leucosia Weber, 1795, revealed subdivisions within the genus.

I attended the New Mexico Highlands University Master Plan public meeting on Jan. 27 with several of my neighbors, including the Cordovas who have lived in their home next door to me for over 50 years. Highlands presented three Master Plans (A, B, C) at its previous public meeting in the spring of 2009. Plan B involved demolishing our homes for a parking lot.
A mayoral candidate in Wagon Mound has reported to authorities that her campaign signs have been marred with racist graffiti.
Betty Ann Medina, a village council member who is facing Arthur Arguello in the mayor's face, said three of her signs on N.M. Highway 120 on the way to Roy were vandalized with swastikas. Someone wrote "KKK" on another, and five were stolen, Medina said.
The only sign unaffected was near some dogs, she said.
There is Hope on the schedule after all for the Robertson girls' basketball team.
The Lady Cardinals scored a significant non-district victory on Monday night, beating Hope Christian 52-49 on the Huskies' home campus in Albuquerque.
Hope Christian entered the game ranked sixth in the latest Class 3A girls' poll sponsored by the New Mexico High School Coaches Association. Robertson was ninth in the same poll.
RHS led 25-21 at halftime and held on down the stretch to complete the upset.
We were amazed last year when the state announced that Sierra Vista Elementary School was No. 40 on the state list for demolition. Recently, officials announced that the school is now at No. 14.
And Sierra Vista is only a little more than 20 years old.
Whatever way you cut it, the taxpayers have been failed if a relatively new building needs to be leveled. Officials say a leaky roof has caused deterioration to the building.
Highlands University is hoping to issue a new license plate as soon as it gets state approval for the design, officials say.
President Jim Fries said Associate Vice President Lawrence Trujillo brought to his attention that the university might consider its own personalized HU license plate.
"State universities have the opportunity to work with the Department of Transportation to secure a license plate that would basically advertise the university. I'm sure you've all seen UNM and other state university's plates," Fries said.
Several people commented on the piece about the demolition of Mortimer Hall, the Highlands building at Eighth and National that was cleared to make room for a new student center. In that building, as mentioned in a previous column, was "The Door." On it I kept humorous headlines from various newspapers.
In one move around Mortimer Hall, it was easier to move the entire door to a new location than to apply an Exacto knife to remove the clippings. But let's be clear: The door was of the standard institutional variety, and it held up pounds of profundity.
Justin Bustos made a living at the foul line Monday night, going 10 for 12 at the charity stripe, and tallied 21 total points to lead Robertson to a 73-63 boys' basketball win over crosstown rival West Las Vegas at Gillie Lopez Gym.
Bustos swished his first 10 free throws, all in the fourth quarter, before missing twice in his last trip to the foul line.
The Cardinals (15-5 overall, 3-3 District 2-3A) got what they were looking for — a bounce-back game after consecutive district losses to leader Santa Fe Indian School (6-0) and Pojoaque Valley.
Sheriff Benjie Vigil plans to run for a second term, saying he has a plan to strengthen the Sheriff's Department if the County Commission goes along.
Vigil, who has 35 years in law enforcement, is the third person to announce his intention to run. Las Vegas Police Department detective Roy Pacheco and district attorney's office investigator Tony Valdez have already announced they're running.
"I want to continue protecting and serving the citizens of the community. I have always enjoyed working with the people," the sheriff said.
Three Mora Ranger boys' basketball players recently brought home medals recognizing both on- and off-court accomplishment.
Tyler Martinez was named to the all-tournament team of the 62nd annual Northern Rio Grande Tournament hosted by Pojoaque Valley High School in Jacona. The Rangers, coached by Hank Laumbach, finished sixth in the tournament.
Additionally, Leo Paul Pacheco was among those honored for outstanding sportsmanship qualities, and Joshua D. Garcia was saluted for his academic work.
This is my second letter to the Optic regarding (online reader comments) about Phil Warfield (Re: front-page story on Jan. 29). The first was Jan. 30 sent by the Postal Service and today, Feb. 2, sent by e-mail.

Very clear and bright. Things I would have changed:Nothing well worth the price. What others should know:This sight is a real winner. I installed this on a adapter mount on my Benjamin NP Trail Pistol. What an update. I also like the two color red / green. Even with the kick from the NP Trail it holds position. Things I liked:Build quality is good. This was easy to site in quickly. Great for small pests out to out about 30'. Things I would have changed:Nothing - What others should know:These type of scopes are not good for distant hunting or sighting in on far away targets. Without magnification, the bullseye can easily be covered by the dot. Ounce you understand the limitations of this type of scope, it does the job. Things I liked:I was surprised by the Quality of it,The snap on lens caps,
the dual red/green dot light,It comes with 11mm and weaver
bases.Easy to install and sight in. Things I would have changed:I think this is a bargain for a $30.00 scope it reminds me of the BsA scopes but cost's half as much. What others should know:Its a good buy for adding a Red Dot and not not breaking the bank for some of your unscoped guns.

"WPD had tons of styles and options to choose from. Finally settled on this design. We had some customization requests on what text was printed on the cards. The designers emailed me the next day with a proof and it was perfect. Thanks for a great experience and hassle free purchase."
"We were a bit worried about ordering invites sight unseen from the US, so we ordered a couple different samples first.... They arrived quickly and every single invite was pretty and professional looking! When we finally placed our actual order, we took another risk and orderded it in a colour other than our sample and absolutely love it! We really appreciated the fact that before they complete your order they send you an email with the prototype that they have looked over and offer ways to improve the look.. And they were right in all their suggesstions! We couldn't be happier :-)"
"These escort cards went PERFECTLY with our winery wedding theme and decor. They are going to look stunning on the tables, and I'm sure the guests will be talking about these for weeks. Thank you WPD for designing the perfect stationary!"

Hang tight!
Recipe by Valerie
"I am always asked to bring these walnuts whenever we have a get together with family or friends. They are perfect on tables at a bridal or baby shower, and no one can ever figure out how they are made. Very addicting!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 pound shelled walnuts
1 cup granulated sugar
vegetable oil for frying
salt to taste
Yum! Very easy, if you don't do the stupid things I did! 1. READ the instructions all the way through. My first inclination was to drain them on paper towels. My first (albeit very very small) batch has tiny paper towel pieces stuck to them. 2. Don't use a SMALL saucepan. That's a good way to start your kitchen on fire (I really really didn't burn anything down, I promise). Other than that, easy recipe, delicious snack!! Thanks! *** UPDATE - I made these on Sunday and they were fabulous. On Tuesday, I had a few of the leftovers. Not so fabulous! Be sure to make small batches, what you can eat in one or two days. Beyond that, not so great! I guess these won't be part of my Christmas gift baskets this year =(
cooking times drastically off!!!!! cooked on medium heat for maybe 1 minute. better before frying

"Oh my goodness, these are so stinkin good!" I am so happy I came across this recipe today. It makes for a nice little snack. As there are 4 cups of walnuts in a pound, I only used 1 cup walnuts and 1/4 cup sugar. It would be dangerous to have too many of these around! I will remember this recipe for the holidays. Thank you Valerie for sharing your recipe!
These are so very much like a nationally known brand of "Glazed Walnuts", but, without the sesame seeds. Thanks for the posting and the money savings!
These were so easy and so addicting. Instead of frying them, I placed them on a baking sheet and baked at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
these are AWESOME! found recipe to make for this Christmas... EVERYONE loved them! even me and i'm not a walnut fan. made them again for NYE with cayenne sprinkled on it after being fried. simply awesome AND easy!
I'm so glad to have found this recipe, my mom and I used to make them all the time when I was young for the Christmas plates for neighbors, I love these little gems!
Highly recommended!! This reminds me of the walnuts that come with sweet fried shrimps that is my husband's favorite at Chinese restaurant. Figuring out the temperature and how long to keep the nuts in the oil was a bit of challenge but I learned after the first batch. This is a great appetizer and very easy and fast to make. Five stars!

So of a policeman arrests you and you ask for a lawayer and refuse to answer his questions that is a tacit admission of guilt or did things which are at least accusable?
I agree with the second thing you said and not the tacit broke the law. That presumes guilt before innocence.
I dont know about you but I have taught my daughter to be very careful about answering questions posed by the police even if they tell her by her not doing that it makes her look guilty.
It is far different testifying if you are accused of doing something which in this hearing they are not, oit is fact finding. When they have the civil case, which I am sure Christine will against the owner, they will be able to question him under oath if he choses to testify. The right of self incrimnination is one of your basic rights.
Now that doesnt go to say in the eyes of public opinion that people wont thing they way you said. They will no matter what he says, thats why he says nothing. He has nothing to gain and everything to lose. Youd do the same in a similar situation as would I.

Back in June Jonathan Niese left a start with a rapid heartbeat. He missed a couple of days but then came back and finished out his season, with doctors deciding that he did not need a heart procedure — an ablation procedure — until the offseason.
Now it's the offseason and the doctors have changed their mind again: he doesn't need it. Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports:
"The doctors just said that it was nothing major and that I didn't need to have surgery," Niese said via telephone Monday evening. "I'm just going to go on as normal and that's it. It's a really good thing."
Niese finished the season 13-9 with a 3.40 ERA in 190 innings.

Winemaker's Notes:
If the 2005 vintage was the delicate and ever so elegant Audrey Hepburn, this 2006 is Marilyn Monroe. Gorgeous black cherry opaque color in the glass; one truly is struck by the dark depths of this wine even before the first sip. Flavors of cassis, blackberry and dark cacao mingle with aromas of black fruit, cedar and black olive. The 2006 is an astonishing vintage that continues to reveal its flavors with increasing intensity culminating in a layered crescendo of fine grain tannins, blackberry and dark chocolate espresso. This is a powerful, seductive wine that benefits from decanting up to thee hours ahead of serving.

CBT-based self-help books can do more harm than good
The new research focuses on the use of self-help books as a preventative intervention for people at risk of developing depression. Gerald Haeffel identified 72 undergrads at risk and allocated each of them randomly to work through one of three self-help books. A third of the students spent four weeks working through a traditional self-help CBT-based book, of the kind typically found in book stores, which involved learning the links between thoughts, behaviour and mood, as well as identifying negative thoughts and re-evaluating them. Another group of students followed a 'non-traditional' CBT-based self-help book, similar to the first but modified so that the task of identifying and challenging one's own negative thoughts was removed. The final group followed a book that taught academic skills such as time-management and memory aids.
Here's the bottom line: among students who tended to ruminate and who had suffered an increase in stress, those who followed the traditional CBT book displayed more depressive symptoms after the four-week study period than those who followed either of the other two books. At four-month follow-up, the traditional CBT study group as a whole tended to have more depression symptoms than the other groups, although high ruminating and stressed students in the traditional group remained the biggest losers.
Haeffel sounded some notes of caution - the findings may not generalise to non-student participants, the samples were fairly small, and the outcomes were based on depression symptoms, not clinically diagnosed depression. That said, the stressed, high ruminators in the traditional CBT group ended up scoring on the 'moderate' range of the depression scale at four-month follow up.
'The current results suggest that cognitive work-books as traditionally operationalised (and sold in stores) may not work for individuals who ruminate,' Haeffel said. 'For these individuals, a modified form of cognitive skills training that does not rely on identifying and disputing negative cognitions may be more effective.'
This latest warning about self-help comes after a study published in 2009 that showed use of positive mantras such as 'I'm a lovable person' can actually be harmful to people with low self-esteem.

Interesting research.
I've a female friend that is very likely affected by clinical depression (she has suicidal thoughts), and I've passed to her the "CBT For Dummies" book. Maybe it can do more harm to her than good? I'm worried, she is all capable of committing suicide. For what I remember of that book, it suggests that the ABCD worksheet is not indicated for ruminators.
What would be "a modified form of cognitive skills training that does not rely on identifying and dispute negative cognitions"? Books?Replies- Anonymous6:35 am
If you are concerned about your friend committing suicide, I suggest you alert your mental health department and have her evaluated to see if she is a danger to herself. They can set her up with the proper treatment ASAP. If you are in the US, you want her held for evaluation for three days under a 5150. I hope she gets better soon. You are a wonderful friend for trying to help!
Hi Manuel
Thanks for your comment. First of all, please note that this is preliminary research on a small sample of university students. The findings may not generalise. If your friend is suicidal and you are worried for her safety I suggest that you or she seek urgent professional help/advice.- Anonymous10:14 am
Well, if you can think better than the person who wrote the book, or the therapist in the chair opposite, it's not that easy to buy the comforting but false picture they are painting.
One spots the flaws.
I'm not depressed, I just have "Positive Illusion Deficiency": it comes from examining and breaking too many of them: not fit for purpose.
I did have a very good psychiatrist who admitted this: "If you weren't so intelligent and observant, I could lie to you in a much more positive and beneficial manner." - Anonymous12:29 pm
re Manuel's comment - "CBT for Dummies" is an excellent study aid, but the title has unfortunate undertones for someone whose self-esteem may be at rock bottom.
I know of someone who went for psychotherapy on the NHS and was offered it as a work book. She took the title very seriously and it didn't do her a great deal of good. "CBT for Dummies" and other self-help books like "The Anxiety / Phobia Workbook" can be helpful aids when COMBINED with in-person therapy.
Let's also keep in mind that the unaffordability of psychotherapy renders such therapy a white, upper-middle class experience. Self-help books are one way whereby the less fortunate may partake of some of the advances in psychology. Let's hope too that they may be more rather than less benefited by such books.RepliesI agree with your first point. The second point contains a rather unhelpful generalization. I, and plenty of my colleagues, offer low-cost help to people - for instance, by operating a sliding fee scale. Many of us feel that it's the best way we can help; by staying outside the NHS we don't have to compromise the values of the treatment, but are able to reduce the fee.
Unaffordability of psychotherapy? White, upper-middle-class experience?

What are some of these "non-traditional" cbt books the study is referring to?

I can't get access to the paper but I would be interested to know if the authors investigated how many of the participants would actually have used these self help CBT manuals or had considered it in the past.
Also drawing from the third wave of Cognitive therapy and possibly criticizing the CBT approach, does this give an example of the possible pitfalls of CBT. Does it demonstrate that aiming to control a thought, and manipulate it is not too effective. Over rumination etc. (obviously this is not a study looking at the validity and efficacy of CBT!)

As a ruminator myself, I went through a self-help CBT book and quickly realised for myself that the techniques of identifying negative thoughts and pondering the reasons was just going to make things worse. I found that instead a combination of positive affirmations and replacing negative thoughts with positive ones when I first notice them helped immensely.
