Brevet Major William Stephen Raikes Hodson (10 March 1821 – 11 March 1858) was a British leader of irregular light cavalry during the Indian Rebellion of 1857 (also known as the Indian Mutiny or the Sepoy Mutiny). He was known as "Hodson of Hodson's Horse."
His most celebrated action in British 19th century annals, was to apprehend the King of Delhi (also referred to as Emperor of India and Bahadur Shah II). The following day he rode to the enemy camp, heavily outnumbered by the rebels and demanded the surrender of the Mughal princes who were leading the rebellion around Delhi and killed them,.[1] It needs to be noted that in the course of the Mutiny a number of male members of Bahadur Shar II's family were killed by East India Company forces, who imprisoned or exiled the surviving members of the Mughal dynasty; furthermore, Bahadur Shah II was tried on four counts, two of aiding rebels, one of treason, and being party to the murder of 49 people - however, as Hodson had previously guaranteed his life the Emperor eventually died peacefully of old age.[2] Hodson's career received praise from a number of senior military commanders such General Hugh Gough [3] (see references below) but there were certain dissenting voices from other members of the military. There were also a few politicians who felt the killing of Mughal princes by Hodson had done 'dishonour',[4] however Hodson's career received praise from more senior politicians including the Prime Minister and Minister for India.[5]
Hodson is credited with being jointly responsible for the introduction of the khaki uniform.
Early career[edit]
William Hodson was born on 9 March 1821 at Maisemore Court, near Gloucester, third son of the Rev. George Hodson. He was educated at Rugby School under Dr Arnold and at Trinity College, Cambridge.[6] He accepted a cadetship in the Indian Army at the age of twenty-three; joining the 2nd Bengal Grenadiers, he went through the First Anglo-Sikh War.
Unusually among officers of the time, William Hodson was a Cambridge graduate and keen linguist. A contemporary described him as tall man with yellow hair, a pale, smooth face, heavy moustache, and large, restless, rather unforgiving eyes… a perfect swordsman, nerves like iron, and a quick, intelligent eye[citation needed]. Hodson delighted in fighting and his favourite weapon was the hog spear[citation needed]. He was a brilliant horseman with the capacity to sleep in the saddle[citation needed]. He was described as 'the finest swordsman in the army'.[7]
The initial assistance he gave in organising the newly formed Corps of Guides in December 1846 had been one of Sir Henry Lawrence's projects in which Hodson excelled. The Guides Corps had Lt Harry Burnett Lumsden as its commandant and Lt Hodson as adjutant. Significantly, among the duties assigned to Hodson was responsibility for equipping the new regiment which necessitated his choosing the regiment's uniform. With Lumsden's approval, Hodson decided upon a lightweight uniform of Khaki colour - or 'drab' as it was then referred to. This would be comfortable to wear and 'make them invisible in a land of dust'. Accordingly in May 1848 he liaised with his brother Rev. George Hodson, in England, to send 'drab' cloth for 900 men as well as 300 carbines.[8] As a result Hodson and Lumsden had the joint distinction of being the first officers to clothe a regiment in Khaki which many view as the precursor of modern camouflage uniform.
For a while, later, he was transferred to the Civil Department as Assistant Commissioner in 1849 and stationed at Amritsar; and from there he travelled in Kashmir and Tibet. In 1852 he was appointed Commandant of the Corps of Guides.
As well as being unusual among British soldiers in India for being a Cambridge university graduate, he also enjoyed classical literature for relaxation, and was a keen linguist - this included his interest in learning the main language(s) of his host country at that time. On his arrival in India he started first learning 'Hindustani 'and later Persian, with the help and encouragement from his mentor Sir Henry Lawrence.[9] This apparently was of intellectual and cultural interest to him. Particularly as his army quarters offered him little in the way of culture or reading-matter, save for the 'usual copy of the Bible and works of Shakespeare'. This led him to eventually order from his brother "a formidable collection of classics, though he probably saw nothing incongruous in spending three hours a day studying Persian, and turning later for relaxation to untranslated Xenophon…".[10]
Indian Rebellion[edit]
At the outset of the Indian Mutiny he made his name by riding with despatches from General Anson from Karnal to Meerut and back again, a distance of 152 miles in seventy-two hours, through country full of hostile cavalry. Following this feat, the commander-in-chief empowered him to raise and command a new regiment of 2000 irregular horse, which became famed as "Hodson's Horse", and placed him at the head of the Intelligence Department.
In his double role of cavalry leader and intelligence officer, Hodson played a large part in the reduction of Delhi. As already indicated, his major achievement at this time was the capture[11] of the Mughal Emperor, Bahadur Shah II; and his major discredit the execution of the three Mughal princes, Bahadur's sons Mirza Mughal and Mirza Khizr Sultan and his grandson Mirza Abu Bakr.[12]
The British knew that the old Emperor of India (or "King of Delhi") was proving to be a focus for the uprising and the mutineers, and that he, his sons and their army were camped just outside Delhi at Humayun's Tomb. The General in command said he could not spare a single European. Hodson volunteered to go with 50 of his irregular horsemen, this request was turned down but after some persuasion Hodson obtained from Colonel (later General) Archdale Wilson permission to ride out to where the enemy were encamped. Hodson rode 6 miles through enemy territory into their camp, containing some 6000 or more armed mutineers, who are said to have laid their arms to grounds when he ordered them to.[13] Some have seen this abject surrender as highly symbolic of the twilight of the millinium-old Islamic political power in India,[14] which had started after Aurangzeb; but the fact was that the mutineers, or rebels, at Delhi were simply demoralised after their hard-fought defeat and severe privations.[15]
Here he accepted the surrender of Bahadur Shah II, the last of the Moghul Emperors of India, promising him that his life would be spared.[16] The capture of the Emperor in the face of a threatening crowd dealt the mutineers a heavy blow. As a sign of surrender the Emperor handed over his arms, which included two magnificent swords, one with the name 'Nadir Shah' and the other with the seal of Jahangir engraved upon it, which Hodson intended to present to Queen Victoria.[17] The swords he took from the Emperor were given to the Queen as a symbol of the Emperor's surrender and are still held in the Queen's Collection.
The sons of the king, the princes had refused to surrender, demanding guarantees of safety[18] and on the following day with a few horsemen Hodson went back and demanded the princes' unconditional surrender. Again a crowd of thousands of mutineers gathered, and Hodson ordered them to disarm, which they did. He sent the princes on with an escort of ten men, while with the remaining ninety he collected the arms of the crowd.[19] The princes were mounted on a bullock-cart and driven towards the city of Delhi. As they approached the city gate, a crowd of people again started to gather around them, and Hodson ordered the three princes to get off the cart and to strip off their top garments. He then took a carbine from one of his troopers and shot them dead before stripping them of their signet rings, turquoise arm-bands and bejewelled swords. Their bodies were ordered to be displayed in front of a kotwali, or police-station, and left there to be seen by all.[20] The gate near where they were killed is still called the Khooni Darwaza, or 'Bloody Gate'.
The actions were controversial even[21] at the time. The future Frederick Roberts, 1st Earl Roberts, then a junior officer serving in the Delhi campaign would later call it a "blot" and criticized "an otherwise brilliant officer" for exposing himself to criticism.[22] Other first hand accounts, such as William W. Ireland also called into question the exigency of his actions[citation needed]. His service record showed that he had often behaved in arbitrary fashion before, and he had previously been removed from civil duties by the then Governor General of India, Lord Dalhousie.
Accusations of corruption[edit]
In 1855, two separate main charges were brought against Hodson. The first was that he had arbitrarily imprisoned a Yusufzai Pathan chief named Kader Khan,[23] on suspicion of being concerned in the murder of Colonel Mackeson.[24] The man was acquitted, and Lord Dalhousie removed Hodson from his civil functions and remanded him to his regiment on account of his lack of judgment and gross negligence.[25]
The second charge was more serious, amounting to an accusation of misappropriation of the funds of his regiment. He was tried by a court of inquiry, who found that his conduct to natives had been unjustifiable and oppressive, that he had used abusive language to his native officers and personal violence to his men, and that his system of accounts was calculated to screen peculation and fraud. However, a subsequent inquiry was carried out by Major Reynell Taylor: 'Taylor's investigation took two months, during which time he went through every item received or paid out by Hodson over the two years of his command'.[26] By the end of his investigation into the record of Hodson's accounts Taylor found 'it to be an honest and correct record from beginning to end - It has been irregularly kept, but every transaction, from the least to the greatest, has been noted in it, and is traceable to the individual concerned' [27][28]
During a tour through Kashmir with Sir Henry Lawrence he kept the purse and Sir Henry could never obtain an account from him; subsequently, Sir Henry's younger brother Sir George Lawrence accused him of embezzling the funds of the Lawrence Asylum at Kasauli; while Sir Neville Chamberlain in a published letter says of the third brother, Lord Lawrence, "I am bound to say that Lord Lawrence had no opinion of Hodson's integrity in money matters. He has often discussed Hodson's character in talking to me, and it was to him a regret that a man possessing so many fine gifts should have been wanting in a moral quality which made him untrustworthy." Finally, on one occasion Hodson spent £500 of the pay due to Lieutenant Godby, and under threat of exposure was obliged to borrow the money from a local banker named Bisharat Ali through one of his officers.
Financial matters[edit]
Throughout his career Hodson was dogged by accusations of, at best, negligence in financial matters and, at worst, theft. He was investigated on more than one occasion but nothing was ever proved. His detractors claim he was a looter. His supporters say that these accusations came from those who disliked his manner and his military success. He had not followed the normal career path for an officer and he was renowned for his curt, brisk manner and was not afraid to step on toes or say what was on his mind. On the other hand the Rev. G Hodson states in his book that he obtained the inventory of his brother's possessions made by the Committee of Adjustment and it contained no articles of loot, and Sir Charles Gough, president of the committee, confirmed this evidence. This statement is totally incompatible with Sir Henry Daly's and is only one of many contradictions in the case. Sir Henry Norman stated that to his personal knowledge Hodson remitted several thousand pounds to Calcutta which could only have been obtained by looting. On the other hand, again, Hodson died a poor man, his effects, which included a ring, watch, Bible and Prayer book, and a miniature, were sold for only £170. General remarked "there was nothing in his boxes but what an officer might legitimately and honourably have in his possession." His widow did not have money enough to pay for her passage home and she had to apply to the Compassionate Fund for assistance, which was granted. She was given apartments by the Queen at Hampton Court, and left only £400 at her death.
On 11 March 1858 Hodson's regiment was in Lucknow and while storming the Begum's palace (Begum Kothi) he was shot. His last words were "I hope I have done my duty".[29]
On the evening of 12 March 1858, his body was buried in the garden of La Martiniere Lucknow. His grave is still located within the grounds of La Martiniere College. The memorial bears the inscription "Here lies all that could die of William Stephen Raikes Hodson".
Though the British Empire looked upon Hodson as somewhat of a hero, he is remembered in India mostly for his excesses while trying to curb the 1857 Revolt. He is also remembered for a number of notable achievements in his lifetime. His military career won him respect and praise from many quarters; this included recognition from the Secretary of State for India, the Prime Minister and Queen Victoria.[30]
In parliamentary speeches made on 14 April 1859 the Prime Minister Earl of Derby, and the Minister for India Lord Stanley, singled-out Major Hodson for his unique services to the country. Lord Stanley is quoted as saying:
"Major Hodson, of the Guides, who, in his short but brilliant military career, displayed every quality which a cavalry officer should possess. Nothing is more remarkable in glancing over the biography of Major Hodson that has just appeared than the variety of services in which he was engaged, unless it be the energy and versatility with which he turned from one to the other. At one time displaying his personal courage and skill as a swordsman in conflict with the Sikh fanatics; then transferred to the Civil Service, the duties of which he performed as though he had passed his whole life at the desk; afterwards recruiting and commanding the corps of Guides, and, lastly, taking part in the operations before Delhi, volunteering for every enterprise in which life could be hazarded or glory could be won; he crowded into the brief space of twelve eventful years the services and adventures of a long life. He died before the reward which he had earned could be received, but he attained that reward which doubtless he most coveted — the consciousness of duty nobly done, and the assurance of enduring military renown."
[5] The Prime Minister said of him
"Doubtless many have fallen who, if they had been spared, might have risen to greatest eminence and have held the highest stations in public service. I allude to Hodson a model of chiefs of irregular forces. By his valour, his rigid discipline, and careful attention to his men's real wants, comforts, desires, and even prejudices, he had obtained an influence which was all but marvellous. This enabled him to lead his troops so formed and disciplined into any danger and into any conflict as if they had been British soldiers. He has met a soldier's death. It will be long before the people lose the memory of Hodson".[5]
General Hugh Gough said of him,
"A finer or more gallant soldier never breathed. He had the true instincts of a leader of men; as a cavalry soldier he was perfection; a strong seat, a perfect swordsman, quick and intelligent".[3]
This recognition of Hodson by the Prime Minister was reflected in the special pension granted his widow by the Secretary of State for India in Council, who declared it was 'testimony of the high sense entertained of the gallant and distinguished services of the late Brevet-Major W.S.R. Hodson'. Her Majesty Queen Victoria honoured Major Hodson posthumously by granting his widow a Grace and favour apartment at Hampton Court Palace "in consideration of the distinguished service of your late husband in India".[31]
He features as one of the main characters in James Leasor's novel about the Mutiny, Follow the Drum (1972), which describes his part in these events and his death in some detail.
The following verses by Sir Mortimer Durand appeared in India shortly after Hodson's death:
I rode to Delhi with Hodson: there were three of my Father's sons;
Two of them died at the foot of the ridge, in the line of the Mori's guns.
I followed him on when the great town fell; he was cruel and cold they said:
The men were sobbing around the day that I saw him dead.
It is not soft words that a soldier wants; we know what he was in fight;
And we love the man that can lead us, ay, though his face be white.
And when the time shall come, sahib, as come full well it may,
When all things are not fair and bright, as all things seem today,
When foes are rising round you fast, and friends are few and cold
And half a yard of trusty steel is worth a prince's gold
Remember Hodson trusted us, and trust the old blood too,
And as we followed him - to death - our sons will follow you.[32]
On 5 January 1852,[33] he married Susan (d. 1884), daughter of Capt C. Henry, RN and widow of John Mitford of Exbury, at Calcutta Cathedral, whom he had known and liked for some time prior to her first marriage. A daughter, Olivia, was born in 1853 but died in July 1854.[34][35]

NFL set to pay more than $750M to settle lawsuits
NEW YORK They were Hall of Famers like Tony Dorsett, Super Bowl MVPs like Mark Rypien, and longtime backups like Don Strock.
In all, more than 4,500 retired players began suing the NFL two years ago, saying the league concealed what it knew about the long-term dangers of concussions and did not properly care for the head injuries that were long an accepted part of the game.
Under a tentative settlement announced Thursday, the NFL agreed to shell out more than three-quarters of a billion dollars, nearly all going to any former players - not just those who went to court - with dementia or other concussion-related health problems, even if the cause was not the very on-field violence that fueled professional football's rise in popularity and profit.
The deal stipulates that it is not to be considered an admission of liability by the NFL.
"It's a good day, because we're getting help for those who need help," Rypien told The Associated Press, "and a sad day, because we didn't get this done earlier to help guys in the past."
Rypien had two diagnosed concussions during 11 seasons as a quarterback in the NFL, including a championship with the Washington Redskins in 1992.
"I'm relieved; I don't know about pleased. There are probably too many details to work through that we don't all understand yet, quite frankly," said Rypien, who has dealt with depression and difficulty remembering conversations. "But I'm relieved that both sides came together to protect the game we all love and help the players of the past and tomorrow. And to especially help those who need help right now, who have cognitive issues and those whose quality of life has been taken away."
The settlement, unprecedented in sports, came after more than a year of discussions between the sides and two months of court-ordered mediation. Subject to approval by a federal judge, it came exactly a week before the first game of the 2013 season, removing a major legal and financial threat hanging over the sport.
U.S. District Judge Anita B. Brody in Philadelphia is expected to rule on the settlement in two to three months but said it "holds the prospect of avoiding lengthy, expensive and uncertain litigation, and of enhancing the game of football."
The settlement applies to all past NFL players and spouses of those who are deceased, a group that could total more than 20,000, and will cost the league $765 million - the vast majority of which would go to compensate retirees with certain neurological ailments - plus plaintiffs' attorney fees, which could top $100 million. It sets aside $75 million for medical exams and $10 million for medical research.
Individual payouts would be capped at $5 million for men with Alzheimer's disease; $4 million for those diagnosed after their deaths with a brain condition called chronic traumatic encephalopathy; and $3 million for players with dementia, said lead plaintiffs' lawyer Christopher Seeger.
"We got what we wanted, let's put it that way," Seeger said.

Royal Challengers Bangalore will have to play some really outstanding cricket if they have to beat table toppers Kings XI Punjab at M Chinnaswamy Stadium here on Friday.
As things stand now, RCB have not beaten KXIP in their last four outings. Punjab have six wins and one loss from seven matches while Bangalore have won three and lost four.
With odds stacked highly against them coupled with the indifferent form of captain Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh, RCB have more worries than their opponents.
Another major worry is opener Chris Gayle not being fully fit. On the eve of the match, RCB think-tank exuded confidence that the Jamaican would recover ahead of the match.
On the other hand, Punjab have got everything going in their favour. Their batting, spearheaded by Glenn Maxwell and David Miller, looks extremely strong. Just two days back in Cuttack, Maxwell sent Chennai Super Kings' bowling on a leather hunt with a breathtaking 90.
The highest scorer in the tournament so far, Maxwell is in superb nick and if he continues his devastating form, RCB bowlers will have a tough time.
RCB all-rounder Albie Morkel tried to put up a brave face on the eve of the match. "Punjab are playing well this year. We need to take it game by game. We haven't reached our peak yet. Hopefully that happens on Friday. We also have a good record at home. There's definitely more pressure on them than us."
The hosts may have a good record here but what is worrying is their away record. Of the seven matches left, RCB will have to win at least five to be in race for a place in the knock-out.
"We keep reiterating that we can beat any team on any day on any field. We just need to take it game by game and not look too far into the future. We've been doing so many things right. The bowling unit hasn't clicked. We need to play our best in the next seven games."

When one realizes just how profound a moment in history Barack Obama's ascension to the 44th presidency is, consider this thought from Dr. Finnie Coleman, interim dean at UNM's University College and former director of African American Studies there.
"I have a 2-year-old daughter and 4-year-old son. My daughter will possibly reach her 10th birthday and my son his 12th birthday before they'd ever see an example of an American president and world leader who wasn't an African-American."
Think about that through the eyes of a black child in Albuquerque, playing this very day in pre- or early elementary school, and consider how the "natural order" of American life has now changed forever. Or, if you will, through the eyes of their parents; being a whole family unit with both father and mother, or as is often the case, a single black mother.
Consider how it was previously for those parents to say to that black child, "You can be anything in life. Even president." Yes, we believed it, certainly; but without evidence, it was theory. Now we have reality.
What becomes clear in talking to black community leaders, activists and educators is we indeed have entered a new world. But the meaning behind Obama's ascension to the White House is as much a Rorschach test as the man himself.
Coleman, who teaches a graduate and honors class titled "Talking B(l)ack: The Language of Resistance in Contemporary African American Culture," had the experience of teaching a class a mere 40 minutes after the inauguration. Of all the reactions to The Moment, a number of his students focused on the issue of whether Barack Obama is black.
"The responses couldn't be any fresher," Coleman says. "It led to a discussion about who exactly is 'black'? And who gets to make those determinations? A number concluded Barack Obama was not, in fact, African-American. It was a strange shift in the debate, now that he's in."
Contrast that to Coleman's freshman class, which is beyond enthusiastic at the results. "These are young people who have never participated in an election, so for them, this is the world," says Coleman. "There is no alternative. They are looking forward not with a sense of the future. This is the future. We talked a lot about how every generation has failed to exorcise the demons of racism. They understood that their generation was either going to elect this man or not."
Come through they did. So now we have an empowered younger black generation, shining a light for the older generation of African-Americans. Good on them. But the question remains: Where is the older guard to put its efforts and energies now? Problems need to be solved. Big ones. And they won't be fixed with a Facebook and MySpace call to arms.
But, says Coleman, "We [older African-Americans] come to the table looking for exorcism of the past; young people come saying, 'Wow, what can we do here?' "
"I have a 2-year-old daughter and 4-year-old son. My daughter will possibly reach her 10th birthday and my son his 12th birthday before they'd ever see an example of an American president and world leader who wasn't an African-American."
Dr. Finnie Coleman
Ramona King, storyteller, performer and mother of two, is having her own with her kids.
"One of my sons was like, 'What is the big deal? He did what everyone else did. He got the funds for his campaign and won the election. The only difference is people got out of the way,' " King says. "I was ready to wring his neck, but when I did the wisdom thing and just listened, it made sense. And I'm glad I did.
"From his perspective, there's no big deal in this. We are well able and capable; it's a matter of what is it going to take to do it in a way that needs to get done. Which I find very interesting. But ... I find some joy that this child found it so ordinary and expected."
So where does this post-Obama world leave older African-Americans who not only have a strong sense of history but have lived it? Is it time, in fact, to "put away childish things," as President Obama implored from scripture? Where does that leave an older generation that has seen its share of promises and disappointments?
"We don't want a younger generation just mad at everything," says Harold Bailey, executive director of the New Mexico Office of African American Affairs. "You get caught up in a time warp if you're just mad all the time. Even if conditions are deplorable, it's going to be hard to communicate [in anger] now," Bailey says.
"Every generation has failed to exorcise the demons of racism."
Dr. Finnie Coleman
And so with that, a dilemma for the African-American community emerges. Will anger still have its place? Meaning, in a post-Obama world, is there a correct way to be Black and Pissed Off?
Dr. Jamal Martin, adjunct professor in UNM's Family and Community Medicine and Africana Studies, has been active in the fields of minority health and prison incarceration issues. Having grown up in Virginia in the early '60s, he has seen his share of anger-inducing moments. He also lived in Hawaii for 20 years in a house across the street from where Obama went to high school.
"For me, a more preferable term would be righteous indignation," Martin says. "Anger causes harm to both parties. Language is such an important part of this. There's still room at the table [for] dialogue and opportunities to move forward and make democracy real and vibrant."
And there's plenty to be pissed off about for African-Americans here: an infant mortality rate more than double the rate for whites in New Mexico; an incarceration rate that's nearly 10 percent of the prison population; access to capital for black-owned business that translates to just more than 1 percent of small businesses ownership; the highest rate of obesity and the respective health problems (diabetes, etc.) that come with it; a continuing problem of educating black kids (and the lack of black faces as teachers and administrators at APS); a dodgy relationship with City Hall, the DA's office and law enforcement; affordable housing; drugs; crime.
The list goes on. So if anger isn't the way, what is?
"We have to use another way to house anger," says Joe Powdrell, who with his wife Rita is the keeper of the Powdrell restaurant legacy. "But I don't want to lose that, because there's a certain amount of seriousness and loyalty to our lineage we're being asked to sacrifice when we step away from anger completely."
Has the specter of a cool black man in the White House, who took great lengths to convey a complete lack of anger, suddenly made it déclassé to be pissed off, even when there's good reason?
"How do we convey things that are of grave importance today without appearing angry?" Powdrell asks.
It's a troubling question. Has the specter of a cool black man in the White House, who took great lengths to convey a complete lack of anger, suddenly made it déclassé to be pissed off, even when there's good reason?
This idea of the "angry black man" has a lot of history, most of it skewed. Says Powdrell, "We didn't characterize ourselves as angry people. It was defined for us. It is to their advantage to us to keep us defined as angry."
So Obama has it right. Or does he? Time will tell. While we wait, there's work to be done; not that it hasn't been going on here for some time.
"In Albuquerque, we were working on a collective sense of responsibility and presence," says Powdrell. "We were working on those things before. We did not finish because these things never finish in New Mexico. What there was before continues. We still need to work on how this city defines us as 3 percent of the population. We still need to get a grip on our state of affairs here.
"I'm afraid the thought is we no longer need to work on those things. We can't drop this. We would be foolish to blank on this for a few months or a year. If we don't watch ourselves, we're going to participate in the disappearing act of our lineage."
For Bailey, the answer is simple: It's a numbers game. Three percent of anything is not going to have success going it alone, and so his office has created a model of bringing groups together. "We've developed a collective strategy to attack those adverse conditions that affect all our communities," Bailey says. "We want to develop effective coalitions, because if we speak as one collective voice, we have more power as a group. That's how Obama got elected. If you want to tackle something, work together."
"I think in many ways for people who operate on grassroots levels, there's a tremendous amount of hope. They've been vindicated in some ways. But there's also some skepticism in how much one person can actually accomplish."
Dr. Jamal Martin
Powdrell adds, "We need to be a part of that, the improvement of our health. If we need white surrogates, we have no place. I need to be able to exercise my rights as a citizen. It's important a person has self-determination.
"We're now on the other side on this great landscape of history. How much of it do we want to be responsible for?"

Hornets End 11-game Losing Skid, 97-94 Over Magic
Robin Lopez had a season-high 29 points and Greivis Vasquez scored 27 points as the New Orleans Hornets snapped an 11-game losing streak with a 97-94 victory over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night.
Orlando had a chance to tie the game in the closing seconds, but came up empty on a 3-point attempt by Nikola Vucevic.
The victory was the Hornets' first since Dec. 3 and their fourth straight regular-season win over the Magic.
Jameer Nelson had 28 points and 10 rebounds for Orlando and Vucevic added 19 points.
Orlando dropped its third consecutive game. It was also the Magic's third straight loss since starting forward Glen Davis injured his shoulder. They head to Washington on Friday
The Hornets dominated inside, outscoring the Magic 44-38 in the paint.

"And also with what happened in Japan, seeing pictures of people without homes could trigger reminders of Hurricane Katrina," said Emanuel Maidenberg, associate clinical professor of psychiatry and clinical coordinator for the UCLA Anxiety Disorders Program in Los Angeles.
People may also become numb to disaster after seeing the aftermath time and time again.
"The question is, does one become desensitized after seeing tragedy after tragedy? It starts to take on an unreal quality," said Nemeroff.
Even if that happens, experts say it's only temporary.
"With each new event, at least for the first few days, our radar gets lit up again," said Rego.
Despite the death and devastation caused by the onslaught of major disasters throughout the world, some say they can have some positive impact.
"I think it makes us more aware of the fragility of life and our own current security," said Dr. Redford Williams, director of Duke Universisty's Behavioral Medicine Research Center in Durham, N.C. "I think it might help us to be grateful for what we have."

Coming when called is probably the most important behavior you can teach your dog. It's about security, freedom, and can even be life-saving!
This DVD is outlind for a 5 week program of training your dog to come to a whistle.
NOTE: Please use a real whistle, not a silent dog one. It is my belief that the silent whistles are really broken ones and they are being foisted onto an unsuspecting public. —Pam
* may be shipped in any color combination, depending on availability.
WON the prestigious 2009 Maxwell Award from the Dog Writers Association of America!
THE WHISTLE RECALL is a treasure and a bargain - complete with a whistle! It's a very accessible and straightforward DVD that breaks down the steps to achieving a successful recall, valuable for those with multiple dog households, for those who hike with dogs as well as those who walk off leash in larger suburban and city parks. . .

Are You Biting Off More Than You Can Chew?
Are You Really Ready to Work With Aggression Cases?
I have to warn you. This is not a "touchy-feely, warm and fuzzy" book. Running safe and successful aggressive dog classes is hard. This book will ask you many questions about your own creativity, sensitivity and skills - as a trainer, a confidant, and a mind reader to both dog and human. I will be asking you to be honest about your limitations and your expertise.
Just because you want to do something, doesn't mean you can (or should). I always wanted to be a runway model, but at 5 feet tall and usually about 5-10 pounds overweight, it just wasn't going to happen.
My tone may seem a bit blunt or snippy, but it isn't meant to be that way. However, it is meant to make you think, really think about all that's involved in working with aggressive dogs, leading an aggressive dog class and help you decide if you should run such a class. This will require a great deal of thought, soul-searching and planning on your part.
I don't mean to scare you off or discourage you, but I want to make sure you understand the severity of the situation when working with an aggressive dog. When something goes wrong in a pet class, like spilling water or peeing on the floor, it's no big deal, but when something goes wrong in an aggressive dog class, it can go very wrong. The stakes are higher and you could be looking at serious injuries and a lawsuit.
This is not a "how to" book. It's a book that poses the questions, "should you?" I will be asking you really hard questions about your own training chops and expertise with aggression.

I am VERY proud to announce that "The R.E.W.A.R.D. Zone
for Aggressive & Reactive Dogs" DVD (Shadow Publishing) has been nominated
by the DWAA for Best Training DVD!!!!!!!!!!!
Below is a sample from the DVD:
Review: Pam Dennison's R.E.W.A.R.D. Zone for modifying reactive/aggressive dog behavior brings a fresh, new and exciting approach to a training world dominated by C.A.T., B.A.T., L.A.T. and counter conditioning methods.
By helping the dog become enthusiastically engaged in a variety of training games and exercises and generously reinforcing behaviors that are incompatible with reactivity and aggression, the R.E.W.A.R.D. Zone process creates a positive association with the training environment. This happy association generalizes with the careful introduction of the stimuli that the dog was previously reacting to. The dog becomes so attentive to his handler and so engaged in the training activities that the other dog, human, or whatever, essentially becomes an irrelevant non-issue.
The counter conditioning/desensitization process is almost incidental to the operant training exercises, and seems to occur more quickly, and without the dreary drudgery that can be part of a straight counter conditioning program. I'm already contemplating how to add some of these very effective attention exercises into our own Reactive Rover workshops.
.... The information that Pam is offering is valuable, and deserves to be fully heard.... by the time I got to the end of the second disc I was sold.
Pat Miller, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA, Peaceable Paws, Fairplay, MD
Review: The sessions were very informative for people trying to understand the complexity of helping dogs with arousal/aggression issues. The thing I found helpful is the emphasis you put on evaluating the handler/dog teams as to the behaviors the dogs responded to, and the way you explained the degree that these foundation behaviors played in the outcome of the retraining process. In addition, the way you ended the sessions with the teams getting something useful accomplished, but didnt try and give the teams too much to work on was also refreshing. The methodical approach you used is right in line with how I have learned to coach people to train their animals in a successful way.
Overall, its a good product that can surely benefit those trainers in
the industry starting out with more complex behavior cases and has
some good pointers for even the more experienced ones too. Ken McCort,

Shaping is incredibly fun to teach; however, sometimes the mechanics of getting started may be daunting. While completing a behavior is very exciting, the real thrill is the process itself. From the first glimmer of understanding to the light bulb fully on, each step is a joy to behold.
With shaping, your timing and creativity will improve, you will become better at recognizing small approximations and learn how and when to raise criteria--or when not to raise criteria, when to try something different, end a particular session and when to keep going.
You and your dog will become a more close-knit team while pursuing these fun and functional behaviors. User friendly instructions are demonstrated with "real" dogs and their handlers, showing the process of working through each of these 21+ versatile behaviors.
Many of them are useful for a multitude of different behaviors. From agility to rally and competition obedience, to musical freestyle to animal husbandry, the behaviors in this video will keep you hopping!
Whistle is printed with "Positivedogs.com".
* may be shipped in either color combination, depending on availability.
Medium fits dogs 40 lbs (like a Border Collie) to approx. 100 lbs. (like a Malamute).
Large will fit very deep chested dogs (like some GSDs or Bernese Mtn Dogs), or dogs over 100 lbs.
Colors are either a beautiful rich brown or classy black. Please specify which color and size needed.

Namco Says Ace Combat: Assault Horizon PC 'Enhanced'
Namco Bandai (which still sounds like an exciting shiny-plastic toy name for a company in my head) have sent word that their dogfighting game Ace Combat: Assault Horizon is coming to PC. The Windows computer version, which is apparently due early next year, 'features controls and graphics that have been optimized specifically for PC users. The PC version will include many of the DLC items released on the console versions of the game. Players will have immediate access to additional aircrafts and numerous aircraft skins as well as skills and maps.' So that's sounds good. But also: 'Players will have immediate access to additional aircrafts and numerous aircraft skins as well as skills and maps. The multiplayer portion of the game will feature support through Games for Windows Live from Microsoft.' Mmpf.
Still: zoom! As you can see below.

There are so many options, so much to do, so many demands on Women. There is no point in taking one hour to do a ten-minute task, nor should we slap together an hour-worthy project in ten minutes.
Elaine Cannon
Contributed by: Zaady
As an extension of Christ in the lives of his children is the only trend enough for a woman's precious energies.
The Lord, creator of life, has given us information to act upon that is guaranteed by him to guide us to our goal of life eternal.
A life's record with God in the details can be a spiritual feast for our souls. When we count our blessings on paper, our gratitude soars. It is all so evident.
If we want to be used for the benefit of mankind-helping the Lord with his mission-we must ourselves be in a position to be used by him.
Life's extremities can bring God's proximity.
Obedience sets a woman apart, fills her with life, permits her to be God-blessed.
Unless inside, where no one sees, our soul is kneelling, too, a prayer is not so likely to get through.
Never forget that you have the spark of the divine in you. Whatever you do or don't do won't change this fact.
A search of one's life and soul will reveal the hand of God. The outpouring of his blessings come with our afflictions, not in spite of them. Afflictions be praised!

Philippine Stocks: Energy Development, Philex Mining, Union Bank
Jan. 30 (Bloomberg) -- Shares of the following companies had unusual moves in Philippine trading. Stock symbols are in parentheses and prices are as of the noon break in Manila, unless stated otherwise.

Wisegal is a Lifetime Television crime drama film starring Alyssa Milano and directed by Jerry Ciccoritti. The movie premiered on March 15, 2008.
The story is narrated by an adult Nino Montanari, who reminisces on his family history...
Brooklyn, New York, ca. 1976: Angie resists abandoning baby daughter Patty on a cathedral doorstep and decides to raise her alone in the streets, surviving by their wits. Years later, a teenaged Patty meets and marries kind policeman Dante Montanari, and the couple have two sons: Joey and Nino.
Dante eventually dies of cancer, and the hospital bills have now left the surviving family without any money. Patty must now make ends meet. She quickly befriends local funeral director Frank Russo, with whom she has a romantic relationship, and Frank's boss Salvatore "Sal" Palmeri, with whom she has a business relationship.
Frank uses his persistent and persuasive charms to reel Patty into his world of organized crime. He offers her a job running a floundering Italian restaurant, which she converts into a successful transvestite nightclub. Sal attends opening night and he is impressed with her business savvy and street smarts. He soon assigns her to serve as his mule; she must drive to Toronto and pick up half-a-million dollars at a shipboard casino. Patty successfully delivers Sal his money, and soon gains his confidence.
Later, Patty and Sal's girlfriend June must make the same trip to Canada together. En route, Patty witnesses June repeatedly snorting cocaine. While Patty is making her usual pick-up, the casino is raided by police, but she manages to slip through their fingers and return to the hotel where June impatiently waits.
Back in Brooklyn, Frank's son Mouse has been selling cocaine in the neighborhood. The teenage boy soon shows up at Patty's doorstep afraid that his father will beat him up again for not 'staying clean'. Shortly thereafter, a newspaper headline reveals that Mouse has been murdered.
During Mouse's funeral, Patty watches from a distance as the procession leaves the wake. FBI agent Robert Wilford approaches Patty for help in bringing down Sal's criminal empire. Robert asks that Patty wear a wire to record incriminating evidence that will facilitate Palmeri's arrest.
Soon, Patty discovers that June had turned Mouse on to selling her drugs, and that Palmeri had placed a hit on him for selling it on the streets. Patty also finds out that Frank asked his boss for permission to, mercifully, kill his own son. June is now fleeing for her life, but Patty intercepts her at her apartment, and finds out that she, June, and Frank are probably the next on Palmeri's hit list.
Eventually, Patty persuades Palmeri to let her go free and to not kill Frank unless he continues threatening her family. Soon thereafter, Palmeri and his men are either arrested or killed, and June's dead body is discovered (presumably from a drug overdose).
The Montanaris and Angie hop on the next train to Florida, leaving their criminal past behind.

- Variety reviewed that "seeing Milano with wads of unmarked bills taped under her breasts is the equivalent of two taste treats in one."[1]
- The Hollywood Reporter stated Wisegal is above the Lifetime Original Movie average and said "it's engrossing, if sometimes a bit off the rails in terms of plausibility. It also offers genuinely solid performances, headed by Milano as a butt-kicking heroine along with effective work from bad-dude supreme Jason Gedrick and the ageless James Caan, who seems to speak increasingly softly as the years pile up." [2]
- The Philadelphia Inquirer reviewed "Milano is perfect as the tough-gal mom, all feisty and take-charge, even if she can't see the future like good witch Phoebe Halliwell, whom she played in the WB's beloved Charmed." [3]
The movie was released on DVD in 2008.

If you're a regular reader of our blog, you'll have seen that talented animation designer Alex Amelines has been sharing his words of wisdom when it comes to building a PC for editing and creating videos. In his previous posts (part One and part Two) he looked at motherboards, hard drives, processors, memory and software. In his third and final post, he discusses graphics cards and peripherals, as well as those all-important components for putting the whole machine together.
Graphics card
Especially if you're working in 3D, the graphics card will play a major role in creating these graphics, and will take some of the work of the processor, further improving the speed of the system. While gaming graphics cards are cheaper, many of the programs you'll be using will be able to take advantage of the additional functionality provided by dedicated visual effects cards, such as the PNY Quadro 2000D.
If you've chosen the right video card, then you'll be able to use two monitors. While it might seem a bit extravagant, a lot of video editing and visual effects programs have massive interfaces, so that extra screen real-estate will be vital. I'd suggest getting a higher-quality monitor for colour calibrating and grading and a less expensive one for the interface and other less-graphic intensive programs.
If you're into visual effects then you might also want to shoot your own video. While there are many affordable cameras out there, Canon makes quality hardware which you can get for a relatively low investment, such as its EOS1100D.
Other peripherals are completely optional, but can make your life a lot easier. Wacom makes great graphics tablets, such as the Intuos 4, allowing you to draw freehand directly into your computer. The ShuttleXpress wheel can also make it easier to quickly move through videos, especially when editing, speeding up your workflow and productivity.
When you combine these components with a keyboard and mouse as well as a power supply and case, you can get the whole system for around £1540, excluding software. The right components will last you for a good couple of years, giving you plenty of time to work on your latest masterpiece, without having to wrestle with a slow, aging system.
If this post has inspired you to create your own video editing PC, why not drop us a line to discuss your requirements, and if you have built your own system let us know in the comments how you got on.

|Auburn tree-poisoning trial locale could move
|Written by Admin
|Tuesday, 12 March 2013 09:34
Lee County District Attorney Robert Treese made the request in a document made public Tuesday in the case of Harvey Updyke.
The prosecutor asked the judge Monday to find a new site for the trial, now set for April 8.
The defense argues the trial needs to be held elsewhere because of extensive media coverage in the Auburn area.
Updyke has pleaded not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect to charges that include desecrating a venerable object. He is accused of poisoning the Toomer's Corner oak trees during Auburn's run to the national championship in the 2010 football season.

By Paul Lester
September 8, 2009
Those who subscribe to the theory that we're part of the 'YouTube generation' will be more than aware of how important it is for budding directors/rubber-neckers to have a video camera on them at all times, and if your mobile phone isn't up to the task there are a range of portable offerings available that are designed for just such a purpose. Perhaps the most famous of these is Pure Digital's Flip, which got rave reviews on release and is many a teenager's tool of choice when it comes to capturing those unforgettable moments.

Sony's new NV-U94T brings entertainment to navigation
By Mike Hanlon
August 28, 2008
August 28, 2008 Sony announced four new nav-u personal navigation devices this week but it's the top-of-the-range NV-U94T model that caught our eye as it adds new features such as a photo viewer, audio/video player and stereo Bluetooth technology for streaming audio and making hands-free phone calls using compatible devices. In terms of what it was built for, the NV-U94T offers a unique, hardware-based solution that consists of an acceleration sensor, a pressure sensor and a gyro sensor that together can calculate the vehicle's current position based on the last known GPS location. The result is a more consistent and accurate position that helps provide interruption-free guidance when tall buildings or dense foliage obscure satellite reception or when it's blocked altogether when underground.
