Chicago P.D.'s Sophia Bush on Lindsay's Mysterious Past and Her "Deep" Connection to the Role
January 29th, 2014
by Kate Stanhope
Sophia Bush, Jason Beghe
Sophia Bush played privileged and rebellious high-school cheerleading captain-turned fashion designer Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill for almost a decade. But while it may take time for some fans to wrap their heads around her new role as a street-smart cop, her Chicago P.D. alter ego isn't all that much of a stretch.
"I have a concealed weapons permit in 32 states and sleep with a loaded gun under my bed," she told reporters earlier this month. "This feels much more close to sort of my soul than anything else ever has before."
Winter TV 2014: Must-see new shows
Buh-bye Brooke Davis, indeed. On Chicago P.D. (Wednesdays, 10/9c, NBC), Bush is hundreds of miles away from her old Tree Hill stomping grounds both literally and figuratively as Det. Erin Lindsay, a former confidential informant for Sgt. Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) from the wrong side of the law who has since risen quickly in the ranks up to the Intelligence Unit. "That's where all her street smarts come in," Bush said of her character's sketchy past. "It does inform a lot of her work though because the thing that I've learned from spending so much time with these undercover officers is that your intuition has to be so on point to be good at your job. … Lindsay comes from the street so she already knows how all these people work."
It's that same intuition that led Bush to the project after her long run on One Tree Hill and, more recently, the short-lived sitcom Partners. "I felt it in my bones," she said. "I got four pages [of the script] and I was like, 'I know who this person is. I didn't have to think about it. I just knew she who she was.' I thought if I can be so deeply connected to something in four pages, I have to read this script, I have to do this show."
Chicago P.D. sends Sophia Bush to NYC for Law & Order: SVU crossover
That connection has already come in handy for Bush, especially it comes to figuring out Lindsay's mysterious life before her turn as a C.I. "[The writers] had told me a few things, and then I sort of came to them a few weeks later and was like, 'Listen, in my brain these are all the things that have happened to her and this is the experience that has sort of shaped her. I just want to know if I'm making sh– up that is so out of left field," Bush recalled. She wasn't. "[Series writer Tim Walsh] was like, 'Literally, 90 percent of what you have said to me is sh– we have written for you. This is not normal.'"
More of Lindsay's history will be uncovered as time goes on. "It won't happen quickly," Bush said. "It will happen in layers, and there's some great stuff with Lindsay and Halstead in Episode 6. She gives him the most backstory that she's given to anyone and it still just kind of scratches the surface. It just talks about her life from when she met Voight. She still doesn't give him anything about who she was or where she was before that."
Like her mentor, Voight, Lindsay isn't afraid to cross boundaries to get the job done. However, they will have their fair share of differences as well. "If you have to bend the law to service what is right, fine, as long as you're not doing something insane, but Voight sometimes goes from bending to doing something completely outside the box," Bush said. "That's where she'll step up and say, 'I don't think that's a good idea. We have other ways to do that.'"
Watch more videos from Chicago P.D.
Lindsay will also become close with her new partner, Jay Halstead (Jesse Lee Soffer), but he'll have to work to earn her trust. "Halstead also has an interesting story. He's an ex-military guy, he served in Afghanistan so Lindsay knows that he's been tested more than the average person, which is something they have in common," Bush said. "She's slower to let people in, but when she does it, she'll die for you, and Lindsay and Halstead are building that kind of a friendship. They bust each other's balls like crazy. They have a great chemistry and I think because Jesse and I have been such good friends for a long time, we have a great working chemistry."
That chemistry has extended to her counterparts on Chicago Fire. "In that sort of perfect sweet spot where we're on a break and they're on a break, and everyone pours out of the sound stages. It's utter shenanigans," she said. "It's like a fraternity house. It's gross, it's messy, and we're having a very good time."
Although certain aspects of the job, such as her rapport with her co-stars and her excellent shooting skills, have come easy thus far — "I have never felt cooler than when I impressed the SWAT team," Bush said of one of the cast's recent trips to the shooting range — there are other things she is still getting used to. "I didn't know that I had to go to Chicago. But I wrapped my head around that and I sucked it up," Bush said in reference to the city's chilly temperatures. "I'm glad I did."
Chicago P.D. airs Wednesdays at 10/9c on NBC.

Mary I is also referred to as Mary Tudor or "Bloody Mary". Mary's father was Henry VIII and her mother was Catherine of Aragon, Henry's first wife. She was crowned only after the attempt to put Lady Jane Grey on the throne.
Mary I was queen from 1553 to 1558. When she was crowned queen, she was very popular with the people of England. It was this popularity that helped to quickly overturn the attempt to put Lady Jane Grey onto the throne of England. However this popularity quickly turned sour because of her religious changes and her marriage.
Mary completely reversed the religious changes of Edward. She had been brought up as a strict Roman Catholic and was horrified by her half-brothers changes.
The Catholic Mass was restored and Holy Communion was banned. All priests had to be Catholic; the basic furniture in the Protestant churches was replaced with the colourful furniture and paintings of the Catholic Church. Services were held in Latin and Cranmers English prayer book was banned. The pope was made head of the church again.
The majority of the people of England accepted these changes - the Tudor royal family was still respected throughout the country. However, some did not. Some refused to change and they were burned at the stake for heresy. Nearly 300 people died in this way. One was Archbishop Cranmer who had written the banned English prayer book. The treatment of these heretics, and many were ordinary people, did much to make Mary unpopular - hence her nickname "Bloody Mary".
English people, at this time, feared the power of Spain. To bring the two countries closer together, Mary accepted a marriage proposal from the king of Spain - Philip II. He was also a very strong Catholic. Marys advisors and friends warned her not to marry Philip but she went against their advice and married him in 1554. The people of England greatly feared that Philip would control England and this lead to Mary becoming very unpopular with her people.
The marriage was a disaster. Philip spent much of his time in Spain and the two rarely saw one another. They had no children.
When Mary died in 1558, she was a very unhappy person. Her marriage, on which she had placed so much hope, failed and the people of England resented her.
Her half-sister Elizabeth became queen on Marys death.

Visitor Center
With its breathtaking natural beauty and unlimited opportunities for outdoor recreation, a trip to Giant City State Park near Carbondale is sure to delight visitors of all ages. From camping and horseback riding to fishing and rappelling, its an outdoor lovers paradise. Visitors will marvel at the many wilderness trails. Especially popular is a hike on Giant City Nature Trail, home of the Giant City Streets huge bluffs of sandstone formed 12,000 years ago.
Nestled in the Shawnee National Forest, just minutes south of Carbondale, the Union / Jackson county park was named for the unique impressions made by its massive sandstone structures. Eons of geological faulting and folding have molded a landscape like none other, which is now clothed in lush garments of fern, moss, large flowering mints, hundreds of species of wild flowers and 75-plus varieties of towering trees. The natural splendor of Giant City has made it a renowned retreat that attracts more than 1.2 million visitors annually.
Shelter bluffs, or rock shelters, worn into the sides of the cliffs have revealed evidence of human habitation in this region from as early as 10,000 years ago, and the blackened ceilings caused by their fires remain visible today. On an 80-foot sandstone cliff near the main entrance, one can see the remains of a Native American stone wall erected between A.D. 600-800.
The first European settlers moved into the area from Kentucky and Tennessee in the early 1800s, and by 1850, settlers were using the land to cultivate fruit trees. During the Civil War, many of the cliffs and canyons were used as havens by soldiers of both the Union and Confederate armies. By the early 1900s, many biologists, geologists and visitors had become intrigued with the region for study and relaxation.
In 1927, the state of Illinois acquired more than 1,100 acres of land in Union and Jackson counties and dedicated the area as Giant City State Park. In 1936, the Civilian Conservation Corps completed construction of a lodge and 12 overnight cabins on the highest point in the park. Today, the park has grown to encompass 4,000 acres of spectacular countryside plus the 110-acre Fern Rocks Nature Preserve.
An 82-foot, 100,000 gallon water tower was constructed in 1970 to feature a 50-foot observation deck that provides panoramic views of large expanses of the area. In 1999, a 4,725-square-foot Visitor Center was completed. The facility houses exhibits on the natural and cultural history of the park, as well as a gift shop, audio-visual room and a discovery corner for children.
The rustic beauty of the Giant City Lodge creates an atmosphere unparalleled in southern Illinois. Although the lodge has been expanded and remodeled, great care has been taken to preserve the multi-hued sandstone and white oak timbers used in the initial 1930s construction. Many original furnishings and decorations have been restored and are used throughout the lodge.
Three types of cabins are available to accommodate overnight guests. All offer forest views have unique features and have been fully restored. Twelve historic cabins are one-room units; 18 prairie cabins are two-room units; and four bluff cabins, the largest and most scenic, can conveniently house a family of six.
The Bald Knob dining room, with seating for 170, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner daily and has a reputation for excellent food at a reasonable price. It is especially well-known for its family-style, home-fried chicken.
The lodge also features a gift shop, cocktail lounge and bar, an outdoor swimming pool and a childrens pool.
For lodge reservations, call (618) 457-4921, or write Giant City Lodge, 460 Giant City Lodge Road, Makanda, IL 62958. The Giant City Lodge is closed each year from early December to early February.
The park is filled with excellent picnic facilities and shelters. Tables, water, fire grills and childrens playgrounds can be found throughout the facility.
Camping | Campground MAP
Giant City is a popular weekend retreat because of its varied and well-kept campground facilities. There are 85 campsites in the Class A Campground which provides water, electricity, showers and sanitary facilities for tent and trailer camping.

A separate Class A equestrian campground is located off the horse trail in the southwest corner of the park. Camping reservations may be made for Class A sites, visit the ReserveAmerica web site for reservations.
A Class C camping area at the south end of the family campground has 14 walk-in sites and is available for those who prefer a more primitive setting. Outdoor privies, fire rings and access to showers are provided. This campground is closed during shotgun deer season.
A Youth Group camping area is available on a first-come, first-serve basis for organized groups with adult supervision. This area is not reservable.
Exploration of the picturesque natural wonders of Giant City State Park can be enjoyed along the Post Oak, Devils Standtable, Giant City, Stonefort, Indian Creek, Trillium and Arrowwood trails. The Post Oak Trail has been designed for disabled visitors. The 12-mile Red Cedar Hiking Trail provides an invigorating challenge to the truly dedicated backpacker. Hiking Trails
Rock Climbing/Rappelling

Climbers should bring their own equipment and go directly to the bluff, no check-in is necessary. No permanent anchors allowed. All climbing activities at the park are conducted at your own risk. Cliffs are steep and sandstone can be slippery when wet. Venomous copperhead snakes, an Illinois protected species, are found on sunny ledges. Please use caution.

If you haven't yet, read The NY Times recent article about ground beef and E.Coli. It highlights many of the factors why E.Coli recalls still are quite common, in fact according to some it's a problem that's getting worse. It tells the story of one young lady who was tragically paralyzed by eating a hamburger.
The article made a lot of interesting points, here are a few gems to chew on, many of which you may have heard before:
- Packaged ground beef can be composed of the meat of hundreds of different cows that are not just across the county, but even from outside the US. They follow one batch of ground beef and its pretty amazing to see what they find.
- Some processors actually use ammonia, AMMONIA, in ground beef to kill E.Coli. Ever wonder what that slight chemically taste was? This was news to us!
- Most meat used is from spent dairy cows or steer too old to put in the feedlot system.
- Big meat industry players are not doing much to address this issue, in fact they lobby hard to ease testing for E.Coli
- One of the main sources of E.Coli is that cattle from feedlots are smeared with feces, after all they don't see pasture, they are just knee deep in their own excrement, so wouldn't you guess it'd find its way into the meat? Especially since slaughthouses kill thousands of animals in a day, rarely slowing up the production for animal welfare, or as we see in this case ensuring healthiness of the meat
There's a lot more, so read it when you get a chance.
We did feel there was one unfortunate omission, they never addressed the question: 'Why is there E.Coli in the first place'.
Well according to study after study, the high grain diet that is fed to cows in feedlots is a major culprit. Grain is fed since it will get cattle to slaughter weight faster and cheaper than grass but it also make cows very sick since their stomachs are suited for grass, not grain. Grain diets help to promote the development of new strains of E.Coli that are toxic to humans.
The point here is not to add ground beef to the growing list of things to be scared of; everything has some danger, riding a car, chewing gum etc. But the key here is that it doesn't have to be this way, cattle do not have to be feed food that makes them sick and causes public health issues. They dont need to be kept by the thousands in packed stockyards with no access to pasture which causes significant environmental issues. But that is the modern food industrial complex's means for providing $1.50/lb ground beef. Is it worth the price?
In case you are wondering, our beef is from cattle that are strictly grass fed, they never get any grain. And of course no use of antibiotics, hormones, ammonia or irradiation is ever used.
Some more information:
No E. Coli or Mad Cow Disease in Grass-Fed Beef
Diet And Disease In Cattle: High-Grain Feed May Promote Illness And Harmful Bacteria
Power Steer by Michael Pollan:
Most of the microbes that reside in the gut of a cow and find their way into our food get killed off by the acids in our stomachs, since they originally adapted to live in a neutral-pH environment. But the digestive tract of the modern feedlot cow is closer in acidity to our own, and in this new, manmade environment acid-resistant strains of E. coli have developed that can survive our stomach acids—and go on to kill us. By acidifying a cow's gut with corn, we have broken down one of our food chain's barriers to infection. Yet this process can be reversed: James Russell, a U.S.D.A. microbiologist, has discovered that switching a cow's diet from corn to hay in the final days before slaughter reduces the population of E. coli 0157 in its manure by as much as 70 percent. Such a change, however, is considered wildly impractical by the cattle industry.

You don't have to renew your vows, of course – plenty of us don't. And yet, there are an increasing number choosing to do so. There are many possible reasons. Perhaps you didn't have enough money to have the wedding you really wanted when you were younger. It's possible that you've been through some really hard times together, and feel it's right to celebrate in a significant way. Whatever your reason, it's a joyful time that your family and friends will want to mark as well.
Eternity bands are often integral to a vow renewal. While many choose a diamond wedding band, some will have worn a plain one over the years. In some ways, then, an eternity ring can be seen as an upgrade, to symbolize how your love has blossomed over the years you've spent together. It's perfectly possible to find diamond jewelry within your budget if you take the time to do your research first.
A destination vow renewal may be an idea depending on how many guests you want in attendance. If it's just the two of you, this is simple to do – just book as if you are going on vacation. Vow renewals are not legally binding and so can take place anywhere without the need for a license.
Alternatively, keep it local. This way all of your loved ones can be present. Sometimes the simplest ceremonies are the most heartfelt – in a backyard, a beautiful local park, or in an area that's significant to the two of you. However you choose to renew your vows, it will make for a memory to treasure forever.

Cody Purdie has all the makings of a future Division I college prospect.
New Bern's junior has speed, packs a powerful hit and has an ability to make plays on offense and defense.
Purdie, at linebacker, leads New Bern's football team in tackles and is second in sacks. On offense, he makes for an efficient short-yardage running back.
"He is one of the better natural athletes that we have on the team," New Bern coach Bobby Curlings said. "He is explosive on both sides. If you watch him on film, he stands out."
Purdie is already receiving attention from opponents, as well as college coaches.
He said he's already gotten letters from N.C. State, Oregon and Vanderbilt, among others.
"It feels good to get that," Purdie said. "It shows how hard I play. I come out every Friday and play harder."
Purdie, who has aspirations of playing Division I football, is hoping to hear from many more colleges in the near future.
He still has another year to prove himself.
"To get there, I need to keep my grades right in school, keep staying focused and continue to work hard on the football field," Purdie said.
Purdie has been one of the star players on New Bern's defense, which has yielded just 12 points per game to its opponents.
Purdie has 133 tackles and 10 sacks. He recorded a season-high 18 tackles in a 34-33 win over Havelock on Aug. 24.
He has 102 rushing yards and four touchdowns.
"Playing linebacker, he reads a play and it's fun to see how fast he gets from point A to point B," Curlings said. "Same thing on offense, you get the ball in his hands and he hits the hole faster than anyone we've got."
Purdie said he enjoys playing on both sides of the football — scoring touchdowns and wrapping up opposing quarterbacks.
"It allows me to use my ability," he said. "I am a power back and I run hard. Being able to run hard and get in the end zone is a big role.
"(At linebacker) I just try every play to get to the ball and keep my stats up. I go hard each and every play."
Purdie, in his second season on varsity, attended various camps in the offseason.
He went to N.C. State, ECU and a Nike camp.
Purdie said he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.45 seconds and maxed out in the bench-press at 315 pounds.
"I trained a lot," Purdie said. "I worked out a lot and went to a lot of camps. I had to keep up."
New Bern's defense has forced 42 turnovers (23 fumble recoveries, 19 interceptions). The Bears are giving up 219 yards per game.
Only New Hanover — the Bears' third-round playoff opponent — scored at least 34 points. New Bern (12-0) beat the Wildcats, 63-34, on Sept. 28.
Purdie said the defense has to be ready to play on Friday.
"We are excited about this," he said. "I think we need to go out and play hard, execute and play every down to our best abilities."
The winner of Friday's game will play either E.E. Smith or Scotland County in the 4-A Eastern Regional Finals.

December 31, 2008

Though it's a day off from school and work, New Year's Day is often seen as a day to get down to business. While you're starting in on your New Year's resolutions, opening up a new calendar, and packing up the holiday decorations, there's one more thing that college students and college-bound high school students should consider doing. The Department of Education starts accepting the 2009-2010 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (more commonly known as "FAFSA") on January 1. State application deadlines start happening soon after, beginning with Connecticut's February 15 priority deadline. So while you might not be starting school until August or September, you want to be applying for financial aid right now.
What You Need
In order to complete a FAFSA, you will need the following documents:
If you do not have your tax information yet, and most likely you don't, you can use your 2007 tax information to estimate 2008. That way, you have a FAFSA on file and once you've done your taxes for the new year, you'll be able to submit a correction online. While that might seem like more work, it's the best recipe for maximizing your state and campus-based aid packages. If things changed drastically for your family in 2008, apply for student financial aid with the information you have, then talk to your school's financial aid office to adjust your information accordingly.
Why You Should Apply
Completing a FAFSA is an important step in funding your education if you don't plan on paying for everything out-of-pocket. The FAFSA is used by the Department of Education to determine eligibility for federal student financial aid for college. This aid includes federal grant programs (such as the Pell Grant), federal work-study, and federal student loans. It is also used by states to determine eligibility for their financial aid programs, such as state grants. Colleges also use the FAFSA to determine eligibility for the need-based aid programs they administer. Finally, many scholarship opportunities request FAFSA information as part of their application process. Even if you think that you won't qualify for free money in the form of need-based college scholarships and grants, you should still apply. At the minimum, the vast majority of students qualify for Stafford Loans, low-interest federal student loans that represent one of the best deals in borrowing for school.
Where To Get More Information
Start on the FAFSA homepage and go through the links under "Before Beginning a FAFSA" to get started, especially if this is your first time filing. You'll find information about application deadlines, required documents, applying for a PIN, and other things you need to know about to begin. If you don't want to wait until tomorrow, 2009-2010 worksheets are already available on fafsa.ed.gov. The ambitious among us can even fill out a worksheet now, then copy the information into their FAFSA on the Web beginning tomorrow.We also offer a wealth of resources on financial aid at Scholarships.com. Check out the financial aid section on our Resources page for further reading.
January 6, 2009
Full-tuition scholarships, half-tuition scholarships, and financial aid packages free of student loans continue to be unveiled at institutions across the country. While it may be too late for many students to alter their college application plans, if you are still looking for colleges for 2009, or if you happen to have applied to one of these schools, you may find the following information useful. This week, The Chronicle of Higher Education profiled several significant scholarship programs private, community, and state colleges are launching or expanding for incoming students in 2009.
Northern Illinois University recently announced the Huskie Advantage, a program that will ensure that all incoming freshmen eligible for Federal Pell Grants will receive enough financial aid to meet the full cost of tuition. Similarly, Montgomery County Community College in Pennsylvania is raising money to provide larger scholarships to students who receive a small Pell Grant or narrowly miss the cutoff for Pell eligibility.
The University of Pennsylvania will be eliminating student loans from the financial aid packages of all students this fall. It's the latest in a string of well-endowed private colleges to put forward generous institutional aid for its students. The Sage Colleges of New York are also following suit, promising to offer aid to meet new students' full financial need in the next academic year.
Two private colleges in Georgia and Minnesota aren't eliminating loans, but they are drastically reducing the cost of college for many applicants. Agnes Scott College in Georgia is offering scholarships and grants to nearly halve the cost of attendance for all recipients of the Georgia Hope Scholarship, as well as an additional $3,000 grant for first-year students. Saint Mary's University of Minnesota offers students with family incomes of under $100,000 financial aid packages that will reduce the cost of attendance to the average price of a Big Ten school. For the neediest 25 percent of students, St. Mary's will provide all of this aid institutionally, allowing students to use federal student financial aid to cover much of the rest of their college costs.
January 15, 2009
While many stories right now are focusing on financial aid programs finding themselves strapped for cash to award an increased of needy applicants, this is not universally the case. Data published by The Chronicle of Higher Education shows that two federal grant programs that were added in 2006 still have more awards than applicants. The Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG) and Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent (SMART) Grant have gained some participation, but still they're still falling short of enrollment goals.
Both grants are intended to supplement Federal Pell Grants for students who are both academically talented and financially needy. The ACG is a grant of $750 to $1,300 for college freshmen and sophomores who have completed a rigorous high school curriculum and excelled academically, while the SMART Grant is an award of up to $4,000 per year designed to support college juniors and seniors who are enrolled in a science, math, engineering, technology, or critically needed language program. Approximately 465,000 students received the ACG and SMART grants in the 2007-2008 academic year, up 95,000 from the first year they were offered.
In order to attract more applicants and meet their goal of doubling participation by the 2011-2012 academic year, the department is pushing financial aid administrators to become more aware of award criteria and to make sure the grants are being fully awarded. In addition, requirements have also been loosened and students enrolled in eligible five-year programs will be able to receive a SMART grant in their fifth year of school beginning in July.
January 16, 2009
While it's still a long way from becoming law, the first published draft of the economic stimulus legislation created by the House of Representatives includes billions of dollars for higher education, including several provisions designed to make paying for school easier. The bill still has to be approved by both the House and the Senate (which is drafting its own stimulus legislation) then signed by the President, so it remains to be seen how many of the following appropriations will make it into the final version of the stimulus package.
The stimulus bill would increase funding to several federal student financial aid programs, as well as providing emergency funds to states to prevent further drastic budget cuts, and designating money to help colleges, especially ones affected by disasters, make needed improvements and repairs. If the bill is passed, federal work-study will receive a boost in funding, as will Pell Grants, eliminating a projected budget shortfall for the program. Unsubsidized Stafford Loans will increase by $2,000 per year, bringing the loan limit to $7,500 or more for undergraduate students. The maximum Pell Grant award will also increase to $5,350. In addition, lender subsidies will also increase, hopefully enticing more banks to remain in the FFEL program. The Hope tax credit and a provision that allowed families to deduct up to $4,000 in educational expenses will also be combined into a new $2,500 tax credit, through which families with too little income to file taxes could still receive $1,000.
As Congress hammers out the details of the stimulus bill in coming weeks, these numbers will likely change. A more detailed breakdown of these and other proposals affecting colleges and universities is available from Inside Higher Ed.
January 23, 2009
The University of California system's board of regents is considering a proposal to extend financial aid covering full tuition to families earning under $60,000 per year. The change, suggested by University of California President Mark Yudof, is still under review and will likely be voted on next month.
The concerns that motivate this move are becoming more pressing and are shared by many figures in higher education. The University of California, like other state university systems, is facing budget cuts and plans to increase tuition in response. California is also one of the states hardest hit by the recession, especially the collapse of the housing market. There is widespread concern that these factors may put a college education out of reach for many. The University of California system also serves a relatively large number of low-income and moderate-income students, so Yudof's proposal could potentially benefit a substantial portion of the student body.
Despite economic hardship and shrinking endowments, California is not alone in considering increases to college scholarships and grants for students struggling the most financially. A number of prestigious schools have eliminated student loans for less affluent students in recent years. These significant financial aid packages may be becoming more of a draw students this year, as many of the most prestigious and most generous schools are reporting double-digit increases in applications for the 2009-2010 academic year.
January 27, 2009
It's looking like federal student financial aid will be increased in the forthcoming economic stimulus package, at least based on the legislation presented in each house of Congress in its current form. While the House stimulus bill contains more aid for education, the Senate bill also proposes higher education tax benefits and increases in Federal Pell Grant funding.
The House bill promises:
The Senate bill appropriates:
The House bill also includes money to improve financial aid administration and further assist student loan lenders, while the Senate bill will allow computers to be counted as education expenses towards which 529 plans can be used. The bills are facing some Republican opposition, especially regarding education spending, as it's been argued that construction projects and increases to student financial aid will not directly and immediately benefit the economy. As Congress and the White House continue to hash out the details of these bills, amounts are likely to change. But for now, it appears that colleges and college students may receive a little extra financial aid from the government this year.
February 3, 2009
As we mentioned last month, financial aid application deadlines are fast approaching for the coming fall. While students technically have until June 30, 2010 to complete a FAFSA on the Web for the 2009-2010 school year, state aid deadlines happen much sooner with some occurring as early as February--this February. So if you're waiting to do your taxes first or just generally procrastinating on your application, check the deadlines below to make sure you don't miss out on state or campus-based aid programs.
February 13, 2009
The House of Representatives just passed the compromise version of the economic stimulus package. Now there are just two stop left for it before it becomes law: the Senate and President Obama's desk. The Senate plans to vote later this evening, putting it on track to be signed on Monday.
As the dust settles, more detailed accounts of what's actually in the bill are emerging. While the final totals have not yet been made public, Inside Higher Ed has an updated version of their stimulus chart online today, featuring many of the stimulus provisions related to higher education. The $787 billion stimulus package will include:
February 26, 2009
An omnibus appropriations bill for the current fiscal year passed the House yesterday and is on its way to the Senate. This piece of legislation will raise the maximum award for Federal Pell Grants to $5350 for 2009-2010. The bill was put on hold last year due to threats of a veto from President Bush.
While Pell Grants received a funding boost, SEOG grants will remain at 2008 funding levels, as will work-study. Perkins Loan cancellation programs will receive a boost in funding to cover shortfalls. Additionally, TRIO and Gear Up programs, aimed at helping low-income students get into college, also received more funding.
The first draft of the budget for the 2010 fiscal year is also heading to Congress soon after being unveiled by President Obama this morning. While details are still emerging, based on an address the president delivered Tuesday, it's likely that further funding for financial aid programs and higher education in general will be included.
While budgets are being hashed out and college aid is generally on its way up, more trouble may be brewing for student loans. A PLUS loan auction program slated to go into effect this summer could reduce the availability of these loans that parents take out on behalf of their students, at least at schools participating in the FFEL program. Financial aid officers have petitioned Congress to delay the scheduled cut in PLUS loan subsidies so as not to jeopardize students' ability to pay for school in the midst of a recession that has already driven dozens of banks away from one form of student lending or another.
February 27, 2009
Details of President Obama's proposed 2010 budget are emerging, with education being one of the first sections unveiled. In the budget proposal are increases and structural changes to Federal Pell Grants, changes to Federal Perkins Loans, and the potential elimination of the Federal Family Education Loan Program, so that all new Stafford Loans and PLUS Loans for 2010-2011 would be originated by the federal Direct Loans program. The president's budget also recommends that the new $2500 American Opportunity Tax Credit be made permanent, and that $2.5 billion be devoted over the next five years to programs to increase college access and completion.
After remaining nearly stagnant between 2002 and 2007, the maximum award for the Federal Pell Grant has increased significantly over the last few years. It shot up from $4050 in 2006-2007 to $4310 in 2007-2008, then $4731 in 2008-2009 and now stands at $5350 for 2009-2010. If this provision in President Obama's 2010 budget is adopted by Congress, the maximum Pell Grant will be set at $5500 for 2010-2011, and from there on out, it will increase in step with the consumer price index, plus 1%. This award amount would become mandatory, as well, saving Pell funding from being at the whim of Congress. This is good news across the board for now, but may be a problem later, since tuition and fees have steadily outpaced inflation for most of recent memory and it is entirely possible that they will soon leave the Pell Grant in the dust, despite this new funding commitment.
While the president's plans for Pell Grants and tax credits have largely been met with enthusiasm, the proposed changes to student loans have received mixed reactions. Changes to Perkins Loans would be good for some schools and students and bad for others, but would increase access to the loans overall. The move from FFELP to Direct Loans also has its ups and downs.
Channeling all Stafford Loans and PLUS Loans through Direct Loans would save money and streamline the process, and it may even reduce confusion about federal versus private loans, since students would no longer be borrowing both from the same bank. However, some worry that despite the extent to which incentives have already disappeared and the FFEL program has been subsisting off temporary goverment support for the past two years, abolishing it entirely may hurt students in the long run. Moving to a single lender system would eliminate what little competition in the student loan market remained, doing away with the possibility of future repayment or loan consolidation incentives. Others worry that some of the counseling and support that FFELP funding provided to borrowers would disappear, though a new $2.5 billion grant program would likely supplement these programs.

Born in war, seen my first (and not last) corpse when I was five, never got the chance to settle down in any place for a longer amount of time due to fear of us getting killed, fled to a peaceful country where I don't really feel like I belong when I was 8. Am 22 and still don't feel like I belong. Depressed? Yes. Therapy doesn't help, medication only helps that much and I often feel worse after they wear off, and I can't forget nor change my memories of my childhood. Reality check? I don't really get to escape from my reality. Not even when trying to escape through gaming or other means even thought I wish I could.
Everyone get depressed for different reasons. No one can really say that the reason someone else is depressed is not severe enough and that he should grow up or whatever. You can't really compare peoples problems since we are all different, and as such, different situations and events affect us in different ways.

New Zealand, South Africa, Australia and France will be the top four seeds for the 2015 World Cup draw on 3 December.
The ratings gap between those sides and the rest are too high for results of the two matches on 1 December (England vs New Zealand and Wales vs Australia) to affect their position as a top seed.
The rankings are being used to rank the 12 directly qualified teams for the World Cup into three bands for the draw with the sides ranked one to four in band one – and crucially avoiding each other until the knockout stage – those five to eight in band two and the remaining four in band three.
England and Ireland are in the second band of seeds for the draw (fifth to eighth in the rankings).
If Wales avoid defeat against Australia, Wales and Samoa will take the other two spots in this second band, with Argentina in the third band. However, if Australia defeat Wales, then Samoa and Argentina will fill these two spots in the second band, with Wales joining Italy, Tonga and Scotland in the third band of seeds.

(StatePoint) An extraordinary level of teamwork, cooperation, trust, planning and execution can equal your survival and triumph in the face of perilous conditions.
No clearer were these principles tested than when the crew of the AFR Midnight Rambler, facing hurricane-force winds and monstrous waves, piloted their tiny vessel through the storm to win the Sydney Hobart Race, known as the �Everest of ocean racing.�
A new book, �Into the Storm: Lessons in Teamwork from the Treacherous Sydney to Hobart Ocean Race,� co-authored by Dennis N.T. Perkins and Jillian B. Murphy, and published by AMACOM Books, chronicles the crew�s nearly four-day ordeal, shedding light on critical strategies for teamwork at the edge, and drawing parallels to the world of business through case studies.
�Whether your competition is better equipped than you matters far less than having the right attitude and teammates,� says Perkins. �Teamwork is a powerful thing.�
The year was 1998. While bigger, better-equipped boats attempted to maneuver around the deadly storm, Ed Psaltis, skipper of the Midnight Rambler, made the daring decision to head directly into its path. In a race in which six sailors perished, Perkins attributes the crew�s success to the power of teamwork.
Perkins is offering the same five strategies the crew used on the water to survive and win, to those seeking success in the business world:
� Make the team the rock star: Business teams that aspire to excellence may not have the same physical challenges as ocean racing crews, but lofty goals require sacrifice, dedication, and ability to persevere. Select teammates with the right levels of confidence and motivation and a commitment to putting team unity first.
� Remove all excuses for failure: Preparing in advance is crucial, but so is continuing to prepare while navigating through crises. �Successful teams master the art of bifocal vision,� Perkins attests. �They have the ability to focus on current challenges, while at the same time preparing for longer-term threats and opportunities.��
� Find and focus on the winning scenario: Whether winning means being the first in your field to achieve a breakthrough result or coming in under budget, a team needs a clear, shared understanding of its goals.
� Build a gung-ho culture of learning and innovation: Everyone, regardless of rank, should have a right to speak up. The ability to talk honestly about what works, what doesn�t work and what might work is critical to effective teamwork.
� Be willing to sail into the storm: Test your limits before challenges come your way to learn what hits you can sustain as a team.� �Only by taking small risks will teams be able to assess their ability to take on big ones -- and to sail into the storm when need be,� says Perkins.
More insights about effective teamwork and leadership can be found at www.SyncreticsGroup.com.
The business world can be fraught with adversity and formidable competition. But whether you�re leading the team or part of one, take cues from those that have prevailed over the hardest-hitting challenges to help you build a culture of success.

City of Fountain Valley - Police Department
On August 30, 2011, at 5:42 p.m., the Fountain Valley Police Department arrested two male juvenile suspects for firing a pneumatic BB pistol at vehicles. The two suspects were identified following an investigation into four vehicles being damaged by BBs between August 26 and August 30. Each of the four vehicles was traveling on Ellis Avenue between Magnolia and Bushard in the city of Fountain Valley. Three of the victims had windows shattered by the projectiles; the fourth vehicle had paint and body damage to the side of the car. Occupants in one of the vehicles (a small bus) were showered with glass, but no injuries have been reported. The investigation also identified three additional vehicles with windows that were shattered while parked in the Tiburon housing tract in the vicinity of Adobe River. Because of the danger to the occupants of the vehicles which were shot while traveling on Ellis, and the cost to repair the damages, the suspects were arrested for felony vandalism and for felony projecting objects at vehicles. The two juvenile suspects were arrested and later released to their parents from the Police Department. The crime is still under investigation by the Fountain Valley Police Department. Anyone with information or anyone who was victimized is requested to contact the FVPD Traffic Bureau at (714) 593-4481.
FVPD Case Number: 11-4191

(Compiled by Tim Burt, submitted by Irvine Chargers)
The Irvine Chargers continue their success this season with four teams playing in the conference finals Saturday.
The Junior Clinic team plays against Bellflower at 9 a.m. at Salesian High School in Los Angeles. The other three teams play at Irvine Stadium with Clinic Blue facing off against Inglewood at 11 a.m. The Midget squad (ages 13-14) plays Woodcrest at 3 p.m. and the Pee Wee Blue squad faces Inglewood at 7 p.m.
The Irvine Chargers have extended their incredible season, reaching the NFL Championship game with a 13-0 victory over the Compton Titans. The Chargers (10-0) faced the tough Compton squad that had a reputation for being very physical. The Chargers were led by team captains Kassius Ashtiani, Shyne Shaw, Deandre Brunings and Justin Hakola-Bentor.
The game started with the Chargers receiving the ball, however after four downs, they turned the ball over to the Compton Titans. The defense led by Quincy Craig, Jayden Myvett, Jack Hinds, Sammy Sandovaland Ben Zeppa, took the field, intent on keeping their shut-out streak alive.
The Chargers have allowed 25 points in 10 games, and have shut out nine teams. The offense for the Chargers, led by their great offensive line, took the field again. The offensive line, led by Kade Acab, Joey Ricci, Dylan Durazo, Danny Jazedyk, and Jah-Jah Hawkins, opened up some running room for Kassius Ashtiani to score the first points of the game.
After a successful extra point conversion, the Chargers were up 7-0. The Compton team fought hard, and often, trying to avoid elimination. But the Irvine Chargers just kept finding ways to win, adding a second touchdown by Kassius Ashtiani to go up 13-0.
The defense held off the Titans, with stellar play from Kyle Pitcher, Shyne Shaw, Quincy Craig, and Deandre Brunings.
With the championship game separating the Chargers from a shot at the Super Bowl, the team made sure to make a statement by beating the Titans. The game ended with Irvine taking a couple knees, to end the game, without running up the score. Next for the Chargers is the undefeated Bellflower Broncos. (10-0) the winner of this game will move on and play in the Super Bowl Dec. 1 in Carson. The game will take place at Salesian High this Saturday at 9 a.m.
The two teams will put their undefeated records on the line.
The Irvine Chargers Clinic squad continued their winning streak deep into this playoff season with a 42-6 win overwhelming the Newport Mesa Seahawks. The victory was the eighth straight win for the Chargers. During the streak Irvine has outscored opponents, 308-24, and in the last five games the Big Blue Wrecking Crew has scored more than 40 points in each contest.
In Saturday's game, it was apparent the Newport Mesa team's game plan was to own the clock and keep the Chargers offense off the field with their ball controlled game plan. In the first half the Seahawks ran 34 plays to the Chargers seven plays and maintained the ball for 16:50.
While the Chargers only had three offensive possessions in the first half they made the most of each. With 3:11 remaining in the first quarter, after only four offensive plays, the Chargers Garrett Riley scored from one yard out. Anthony Davidson kicked the extra point to make the score 8-0 Chargers.
Newport continued to keep a hold on the ball with a 13 play 53 yard scoring drive to make the score 8-6 deep into the seond quarter.
However, with only six minutes to go until half and the game still close several key plays turned the game in the Chargers favor.
On second down with the ball at their own 43 yard line, Irvine's Marcus Green took a handoff and scampered 57 yards for a touchdown. Again, Davidson added the kicked extra point to make the score 16-6.

Comment: Got my bags in record time. Best value around for the price. Fit my Raider just right. Had to modify my bag supports with the help of a friend but they look really excellent. Would recommend this site to all my friends. Thanks Jarfrum for an excellent product for the price. A very satisfied new customer.

Comment: nice looking bags, fit well on my 1300 VTX. Wish I had bought the biggersize but overall agreat value and really upgraded the look of my bike
hopkinsville KY
Comment: I have not got a chance to put them on my Sportster yet, but man are they gonna look good. Very high quality for a very low price!
Comment: I love these bag. Have them on my Honda 600. The service was exceptionally fast. Quality, price and overall looks makes them a superb value.
Clare, MI
Comment: I looked around for some bags I was sure that would fit my ACE with the Stock pipes and these barley cleared it. The previous bags actually rested on the pipe but it had flashing so it did not matter. They look very nice on the bike , They seem to be very sturdy and very well made. The Lock that locks the harness to the bags are a bit hard to thread while they are on the bike, but thats fine.
I only wish they were a bit deeper, but I have a luggage rack anyway, so whatever. That was my fault.
I would recommend them on an aesthetic basis for sure, but if you tour you definatly would want something deeper and wider.
Las Vegas
Comment: These bags were better than expected and I'm very happy with them on my Yamaha Virago 750. The picture really doesn't do them justice. They accent the bike very well and the slanted style looks custom. There is enough room for me to keep items such as rain wear, bike cover, gloves, hats and a spare shirt. I would very much recommend these bags.
Comment: Great looking bags, compliment my 2006 HD Fatboy really well. Quality product.
Pedro Gonzales
Bridgeview, IL
Comment: Probabely my fault for ordering Friday evening of a long weekend. My bags came the following Saturday and I could not be happier with them. They look great on my kawi 500. First ride out had someone ask about them. I highly recommend Jafrum.
James Chappell
Mesa, AZ
Comment: Was very impressed with how fast the product was shipped, made it to the front door the very next day. Quality of these bags are great, wasnt sure how well these bags would fit on my v-star 250 but it went on without any problems and have no complaints, deffinately cant beat the price. Highly recommend this place to future customers.
David Campbell
Savannah Georgia
Comment: Very pleased with the saddlebags. They look good, and they've kept things dry. Didn't even have to install supports because of the hard backs on the bags. I've had a number of good comments on how they dressed up my Virago.
David Samples
Lakeland FL
Comment: Very nice bags. Good quality and look great on my Harley XL1200C...they can be mounted with the stock taillights. They are easy to open and close; the material is not as stiff as with some bags. Arrived exactly when said. For the money I think these are an excellent buy.
Comment: These are some attractive saddlebags that seems to be sturdy and durable. They do come with a life time warranty. I would have love to have been able to use these bags on my bike. However, I was unable to make them work on my 2013 H-D FLS Softail Slim as throw-overs, mounting them under the solo rider and passenger pillion seats. The throw-over yoke was a little too wide and too thick. Also, for softails, you will need to use saddlebag supports.
Ron Speagle
Houston, Texas
Comment: Wow! It was no lie. Fast and Fantastic! They look great on my Honda 600 VTX, quality was really beyond what I expected. One other point, as a female biker, my purse goes inside the bag easily, and I have gear in the bottom as well.
Red Lion PA
Comment: I bought these bags off the review of another fellow biker. I'm not disappointed with their review. I have an 09 street Bob they fit perfectly. I had to modify them for my particular bike because I have a luggage rack. I made a small slit in the leather that connects the two bags to fit around my luggage rack, laced the slit back together with the nylon rope provided with the bags and I'm beyond satisfied. The price point is great for a blue collar worker like me. They were originally a $250 set of bags and I paid $75 are you kidding me $75 go to Harley you'll pay $750. They're lockable and removable for security. I'm so satisfied with jafrum and their service I've recommended them to every biker I know. If you're looking for great bags at a great price these are the ones for you.

Comment: I recently ordered these bags for my 2005 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 to replace my old saddlebags. They arrived in two days, were a breeze to put on without any adjustment, and LOOK GREAT. They were also a great price. Always a pleasure doing business with Jafrum.
Danny Janes

Comment: Got these for my 08 Vrod. They fit perfectly as throw over bags. Look great!
B Kamin
Gatlinburg, Tn
Comment: We bought these for our son as a Christmas gift. He has a Yamaha Virago 750. He was thrilled beyond words!! The detail & features on the bags rival those of bags selling for far more money. Love the fact that bags can be detached separately..
Jane Turnipseed
Comment: I purchased these for my 2013 Harley 883 Iron. They look excellent. People ask me all of the time where I got them and who makes them. It looks like they were designed to perfectly match the 883 Iron with the gray edges matching the gray strips below the heads of the blacked out motor. I couldn't be more satisfied. They are even waterproof and keep my stuff safe and dry. I would highly recommend these bags for their top quality and excellent looks. Thanks Jafrum.
Sam Davis
Cypress, Texas
Comment: Ordered to fit my 750 Yamaha Virago. These are a perfect fit for a sub-1000cc bike. They took me about 15 minutes to install and look fantastic. Several bonuses; I did not count on them coming with locking buckles (they do) or that they would come with the long shackle locks needed to secure the bags when parked (they do). The bags perform well and the tie downs are in good places to secure the bags to the bike. I've had them on about a month now and I consistently get comments about how good they look on the bike. Order shipped promptly and arrived sooner than promised. This was my first experience with Jafrum and given some mixed reviews I read on the internet, I was a little worried. Jafrum earned my respect and my repeat business with the quality of the product, the price paid and the speed at which my order was received. I'll be ordering from Jafrum again!!!
Scott Wuerch
Eau Claire, WI
Comment: Bags arrived 3 days after ordering. Quick shipment. Bags are sturdy, attractive, and well-made. Installed in less than 30 minutes with saddlebag supports that make them really secure. Love the lock features that lock the bags to the yoke which is now under the seat, and lock the bags themselves. Not heavy-duty theft prevention, but will certainly encourage would-be thieves to look elsewhere when they can't get to what's inside in a couple of seconds. Highly recommend these bags. Have told my family to purchase gift cards from Jafrum when that's what they decide. Jafrum is now my go-to motorcycle supply place. Quite satisfied with my purchase. Thanks, Jafrum.
Duane Dober
Sistersville, West Virginia
Comment: I can't believe how nice these bags are for the price. They are very sturdy, hold there shape, easy to install, and seem to keep the rain out. No reason to shop anywhere else for sadlebags, Jafrum is #1
Comment: When I received my bags I was suprised! For $70 you cannot do any better. Looks and feels like they should cost alot more. I am extremely happy with this purchase. I did not have to relocated the turn signals either. Thank you!
Blue Thunder
Comment: When these came in, they didn't quite fit with my particular bike. They leather strap that held the two bags together didn't allow my seat to be fastened down and I had to move my rear signal lights back further to make room for the bags. Honestly, I blame the type of seat I have rather than the bags themselves. The bags look amazing and I've had many complements on them already! If you were planning on buying this I would strongly recommend double checking the specifications on your bike so that you don't spend a couple hours trying to get them to fit like me! Also, a few side notes: After moving them around a bit, some of the stitching on the bags started to come loose but not enough for it to be a problem, the inner plastic sides of the bags will scratch if you're not careful putting them on but hey, they're bound to get scratched anyway. I've only ridden with them a couple of times so I'm not quite sure how they handle under excessive weather conditions but so for they're doing their jobs!

These medium sized saddlebags are made of a durable, leather-like PVC
material, are black with gray trim, and are highlighted by chrome plated nickel
studs and decorative braiding. Each bag is slanted and measures 14 inches x 10.5
inches x 6 inches, making them perfect for medium to large cruisers. The slanted
design works great on machines with limited luggage space due to turn signal
location or externally mounted shock systems. These bags have a waterproof
design, although they do not come with covers, so if you're putting valuable
items or electronics in your luggage, it's always a good idea to use waterproof
liners or covers with taped seams in addition to the bags themselves. These bags
throw-over in design so mounting is easy. Once you have your saddlebag
supports installed, you simply remove the bike's passenger or one piece seat,
lay the bags over the rear fender, adjust the yoke to get perfect bag placement,
and replace the seat. These cords here on the perimeter are perfect for tying to
the brackets to stabilize the bags. These bags are easily removed by simply
exposing the zippers and zipping off the bags. For a light theft deterrent,
grommets have been added to allow the flaps to be secured with one of the
included locks. It's probably a good idea to use these locks only while parked,
to make sure they don't scratch your paint while you're bumping down the road.
These bags also have a very rigid panel on the backside. So, if you want to
eliminate the yoke and mount these bags permanently you can, although this would
be a completely custom install so no directions are available for the
installation process. I like the carry handle design on the 4059's. They've have
moved the handle away from the middle of the lid to the inside edge, which
cleans up the look of the bag and allows the rider to carry both bags with one
hand. They've even added these little flaps to protect the bag from its own
hardware. The bottoms of the bags feature a heat resistant panel that works
incredibly well to protect your saddlebags and their contents. Remember, though,
you still want to keep a minimum of about an inch of space between the exhaust
and the bag, especially if you have an aftermarket exhaust. Most aftermarket
pipes come with far less heat shielding than OEM exhaust systems and even though
your bags may stay intact, you can still damage your bag's contents. The SD4059
Saddlebags feature lockable, quick release buckles hidden beneath classic style
metal buckles. Opening the bag reveals the snap down element barrier, and
beneath it you can see the two low profile perimeter pockets and the rigid
corrugated construction.

Paarl Gym 1st XV flyhalf Handre Pollard has received a call-up to the Baby Boks training camp this week.
With Cheetahs flyhalf Johan Goosen ruled out with a shoulder injury, Bulls Vodacom Cup and U21 pivot Tony Jantjies will be the front runner to spearhead the Baby Boks at the upcoming Junior World Championship from 4-22 June. However, who will provide backup?
SA U20 head coach Dawie Theron has handed Pollard a national call-up this week. The 18-year-old has been a star feature for Paarl Gym, who are currently ranked as the No 1 rugby school in the country, and is set to play his second year of Craven Week for WP in July.
Theron plans on fielding the schoolboy in the Baby Boks' trial match against Hamiltons U20s in Cape Town on Wednesday night.
'He's been very good this year. I've been very impressed with the way he has played for Paarl Gym and the WP Craven Week trial squad,' Theron told Schoolboy Derby. 'It's not impossible for an 18-year-old to excel in an international U20 tournament. [Leicester Tigers pivot] Graham Ford made his debut for the England U20s at the age of 17 and Derrick Hougaard starred in a Currie Cup final nine months after finishing school. I believe Handre has the size and talent to do the same.
'I have also called up Sharks XV flyhalf Fred Zeilinga as a possible option. Lions fullback Marais Schmidt is also a capable flyhalf, but he's struggling with an ankle injury.'
Pollard admitted that he was surprised by Theron's call last weekend, but plans on making the most of the opportunity.
'Coach Dawie spoke to me over the weekend and told me about his plans. He wants to see how I fit into the squad and if I can make the step up,' Pollard also told this site. 'It's a huge honour for me and will be a big challenge. I expect this level will be quicker and more physical compared to the kind of standards that I'm used to, but I'm positive I will be able to handle it.'
Pollard is also highly rated by Springbok head coach Heyneke Meyer. In the June issue of SA Rugby magazine, Meyer said: 'He has a good rugby brain and has the physical attributes too [Pollard stands at 1.89m and weighs 95kg]. If he continues doing well, he'll play for the Springboks one day.'
