New London - After a decade in the corporate world, Terrence P. Carter used a yearlong sabbatical from his position as a training and organizational development executive to try his hand at substitute teaching in Paterson, N.J.
During his year filling in for a second-grade teacher who was out on maternity leave, "I fell in love with the kids and I fell in love with what I was doing," Carter said in a phone interview Friday from Chicago.
On Thursday, the New London Board of Education voted unanimously to appoint Carter, 49, as the city's next superintendent of schools.
When his sabbatical ended, Carter said, he called his boss and said he had "found (his) second calling" and wouldn't be returning to the company. His boss laughed and told him he could take one more year off to make sure he had his wits about him.
But Carter called back a few months later and made his resignation official.
On Aug. 1, he will take charge of New London's school system as it continues its transition to become the state's first all-magnet school district, embarks on a school construction project and strives to become a model of education reform.
"Most attractive to me was this concept of creating a regional magnet school district that's not been done anywhere, and I'm always up for the challenge of doing something that's never been done," Carter said. "We don't have a road map, and that excites me."
Currently, Carter is the director and chief academic officer of the Academy for Urban School Leadership, a Chicago-based nonprofit that functions as a division of the city school system and works to turn around poorly performing schools.
He said that when the city's school board assigns his organization with a school to turn around, every adult in the building has to reapply for his or her job. The agency does not use a lottery system, but enrolls the same children that attended the school prior to the takeover, he said.
The academy, which also runs a teacher-training program, reported about $11 million in grants and other contributions in 2012, according to the most recent tax records available. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has contributed more than $10 million to the academy since 2008, according to the foundation's website.
The organization has drawn praise from political heavyweights such as U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who previously served as a U.S. Congressman and as chief of staff to President Barack Obama.
Indeed, Duncan handpicked Carter from the New Leaders for New Schools administrator training program, Carter said.
Duncan, who was CEO of Chicago Public Schools at the time, was on a panel that interviewed and evaluated Carter to determine whether he would be an effective urban school administrator.
"He saw my presentation and said, 'I need this guy in Chicago,'" Carter said of the impetus for his move to the Windy City. "I was supposed to go to New York."
In Chicago, Carter served as principal-in-residence at Chicago's Dodge Renaissance Academy before graduating from the program and then accepted a job as principal of a chronically low-performing elementary school there.
"Academic performance was low on every scale you can think of, test scores were in the toilet," Carter said. "But those are the challenges that I enjoy working with and turning around, and showing people how to turn them around."
Natasha Nichols, an elementary school teacher in the Atlanta area who worked with Carter in New Jersey, said Carter's nontraditional path to the classroom gave him a different perspective on education.
"Especially at a time when we weren't looking at data as much as we are now in education, that's definitely something he brought to our cohort of teachers," she said.
Nichols, who said she still talks to Carter monthly, described him as someone who is constantly learning and always wants to be at the top of his game.
"He prepared endlessly for class. Many days he was there before the start time and definitely stayed after our contracted time" at the end of the day, she said. "Preparation was key for him."
Given Carter's experience in Chicago, how does New London compare?
"I know it has its challenges, but it is all about a person's frame of reference," he said.
In New London, the challenge is academic performance of students. In Chicago, the school system struggles with academic performance and an exorbitant crime rate that too often affects its students.
"When I look at the data, I see that Dr. (Nicholas A.) Fischer has done a great job getting them on a trajectory of achievement; the numbers do show he has them on the right trajectory," Carter said. "For me it is going to be about keeping it moving in that direction and continuing to raise the bar."
While he was a candidate for the superintendent's job here, Carter visited New London to get a sense of its culture and its history.
As a self-described foodie, Carter said he made time to stop into a handful of local restaurants, like Mambo Bar & Restaurant on Bank Street and Pollos a la Brasa on Broad Street.
He also said he was fascinated by the city's vibrant arts culture and its diversity.
"It's a little pocket that you would never think of as having that cultural diversity and awareness," he said. "It's not metropolitan, but it is definitely cosmopolitan."
Carter is planning to spend more time in New London on July 2 and 3 to meet with city leaders, administrators, teachers, parents and community members to discuss ways he can work with those groups to improve the city's schools.

Health, Hedonism & All the Delicious Things In Between
Category Archives: Bottoms Up
Toasting Earth Day with Eco-Friendly Wine
I'm taking a little break today from this month's healthy hydration series to talk about something that's a little bit more fun and hedonistic than good ole H2O: WINE.
Ever since my long, arduous month of detox, I've been paying a lot more attention to the quantity and quality of my vices. And one area of better boozing I've been particularly interested in is the new and growing world of organic wines. I've not only been trying to drink better wines, but also cleaner wines that are responsibly made.… Continue Reading
Bottoms Up: Mean Green Kale Margaritas
I discovered the beauty of kale margaritas last year at a little bar in the East Village. I love kale in pretty much anything, but had never actually used it to chase my tequila before. And three glasses in, I was definitely a fan.
The concoction not only had the added benefits of leafy greens, but it was also refreshing, not overly sweet and totally delicious. I've been dying to try my hand at these mean green margaritas ever since. But without a juicer to my name, it felt silly to pick up a $10 bottle of green goodness from Juice Press just to use as a mixer.… Continue Reading
Bottoms Up: Homemade Pumpkin Chai Tea Latte Recipe, Spiked or Sober
Back in March, during my detox, I gave up caffeine for the month. And my relationship with coffee has never been the same.
While I probably drink just as much as I did before going off alcohol, I've made a conscious effort to try to only drink coffee during times of intentional hedonism or mornings of extreme desperation, like when my alcohol consumption has exceeded expectations.
Most of the time though, I love not being dependent on coffee to defog my head, even if my local hipster barista looks at me with a hint of an eye roll every time I order herbal tea out on the town.… Continue Reading
Bottoms Up: Grilled Strawberry-Mint Bellinis
I got back from California last night and woke up today totally beat beyond belief. Maybe the numerous vineyard visits in Napa and Sonoma and the vacation diet of multiple orders of Sardine Chips at Rich Table finally caught up with me. But the last thing I would ever want to ingest right now is this grilled strawberry bellini recipe.
My return to clean eating aside, I developed this cocktail earlier in the summer for a grilling show I shot for Healthination. They were looking for easy cocktails that somehow involved the grill, and there's nothing easier than throwing some fruit on the barbi, pouring Prosecco over it, and calling it a bellini.… Continue Reading
Bottoms Up: Healthy Coconut Mojito Popsicles
As you know, I'm all about finding mature twists on my childhood favorites. So you'd think by now, 6 years past my Jello-shot prime, that I'd have thought to put booze in popsicles.
But alas, it wasn't until I came across this recipe for gluten-free margarita donuts that I started to imagine the possibilities of combining dessert and happy hour into one seamless magical sequence. And thus, Coconut Mojito Popsicles were born.
If I wasn't old and lame, this is the type of thing I'd serve at a semi-adult pregame, to grease the wheels before tequila shots start getting poured.… Continue Reading
Bottoms Up: Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie with Cacao Nibs
Well folks, peanut butter banana smoothies aside, I'm officially home from Greece!
Thank you so much for putting up with my posting delinquency this week, and for your continued patience as I slowly endure my fall from grace, which included countless sunsets, donkeys and dips (both of the Greek yogurt and Aegean Sea variety).
Luckily, I had a house guest while I was away. So last night instead of walking into an apartment that smelled like one too many pairs of old Chucks with an empty fridge, I got to come home to a vase of fresh hydrangeas and a bowl of perfectly ripe avocados.… Continue Reading
The Best Biodynamic and Organic Wines For Under $30
As I admitted a few weeks ago, one of the results of my month-long sobriety is that I've become a bit of a fancy pants when it comes to wine. Since I got back on the sauce, I've not only been trying to drink better wines, but also cleaner wines that are responsibly made.
Organic wines have been cropping up more and more these days. These wines are made using organic farming and harvesting practices – no pesticides and such. You'll notice that wine stores have started putting green tags or labels on some of these bottles. If they don't, you can simply ask the wine buyer at a store.… Continue Reading
Bottoms Up: Green Giant Smoothie with Banana, Spinach, and Almond Butter
As I mentioned in yesterday's newsletter, I'm doing my own version of a detox this month – no alcohol, caffeine, or sugar. I'd like to call the experiment: Jews Do Lent.
The alcohol has weirdly been the least emotionally problematic of these three vices. This weekend I managed to soberly survive an afternoon brunch dance party followed by an even more dancey wedding. The biggest learning experience is that without alcohol (and its subsequent hair tosses and flailing limbs) I am acutely aware of my lack of rhythm. Being in on the dance floor felt a little bit like being forced to watch videos of myself doing bad camp skits as a brace-faced adolescent (i.e.… Continue Reading

Air Care CleaningRead MoreOver their 10 years helping residents breathe easy, Air Care Cleaning technicians have learned a thing or two. In fact, they've perfected their technique, clearing homes' respiratory systems with a thoroughness that garners repeat customers. Cleansing ducts, for them, is a multi-step process. First, they seal off all the vents. Next, they use specially-designed tools to dislodge debris—this includes scraping away accumulated lint and scaring dust bunnies with an array of frightening masks. Once the dust and dirt is loosened, the team uses a large HEPA vacuum system to whisk it all away, and they conclude treatments with sanitizers and deodorizers upon request. Though duct cleaning is their specialty, technicians also clean furnaces, rugs, carpets, and tile. Some also enlist them to banish mold and install house humidifiers.7000 East 58th AvenueCommerce City, CO US
Professional Air Duct CleaningRead MoreProfessional Air Duct Cleaning helps create healthier homes through rigorous cleaning and preventative techniques. Technicians agitate offending dust and dirt particles before wooshing away filth with high-powered vacuums. Along with cleaning dryer vents and furnaces, staff can also fend off future contaminants with sanitizing sprays, UV lamps, or anti-mold treatments.14439 101st Pl.Commerce City, CO US

Investigators from the Northern Ireland police ombudsman's office said the 23-year-old was the driver of a silver BMW which was shot at by police after attempts had been made to stop it at a vehicle checkpoint.
Witnesses claimed that Mr Colwell was shot as he tried to run away from the car. Police in the market town of Ballynahinch, Co Down, had been told to expect the stolen car and had set up a roadblock to stop it outside the local police station.
Five people travelling in the car with Mr Colwell, including two women, were arrested at the scene but later bailed.
The BMW is believed to have travelled from Ballykinlar, about 12 miles away, and was heading in the direction of Belfast. The main road to the city runs through Ballynahinch.
After the shooting, the body of Mr Colwell was left lying beside the vehicle and a priest who had been conducting Easter Sunday Mass in a nearby church performed the last rites.
The SDLP MP for South Down, Eddie McGrady, called for the officers involved to be suspended and to hand over their weapons pending the outcome of the ombudsman's investigation.
He said: "This is the second such incident in a relatively short period in which firearms were used in a car pursuit. One would have to examine the rationale behind use of potentially lethal force and the policy surrounding it.
"Obviously, a full inquiry is required immediately, and the officers involved should be relieved of their duties pending clarification of the incident and the code of conduct pertaining to use of lethal weapons."
Jim Wells, Democratic Unionist assembly member for the area, said the police officer who shot the driver has been traumatised by what happened. He said that while the officer had not been suspended, he was not on duty. "The officer is extremely traumatised by the events of yesterday. He is not at work - but he has not been suspended."
Criticising nationalist demands for suspensions, he said people should not rush to make judgment until the full facts of what happened were established by the ombudsman's investigation. "We have to stand by our police and support them."

Bullet Buys: Fifteen members of Congress have written a letter to the Department of Homeland Security demanding to know why the federal agency is buying so many rounds of ammunition. We'd like to know too.
Freshman California Republican Doug LaMalfa and 14 of his House colleagues, who signed on to his March 5 letter, are asking the Department of Homeland Security to explain why it is buying 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition of various calibers. They aren't happy with explanations provided so far in the press by lower-level officials, answers meant to debunk "unfounded" concerns.
As we have noted, DHS has been buying lots of ammo, enough by one calculation to fight the equivalent of a 24-year Iraqi War.
Peggy Dixon, spokeswoman for the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, Ga., told the Associated Press that the training center and others like it run by the Homeland Security Department use as many as 15 million rounds every year, mostly on shooting ranges and in training exercises.
The massive purchases are said to be spread out over five years and due simply to the best practice of saving money by buying in bulk what comes down to five rounds of ammo for every man, woman and child on the U.S. That's a lot of practice and training.
A good portion of the 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition are being purchased by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the federal government's second-largest criminal investigative agency. Yes that's the same ICE that is releasing detained criminal illegal aliens onto our streets because of sequestration cuts.
Jonathan Lasher, the Social Security Administration's assistant inspector general for external relations, explained the purchase of 174,000 hollow-point bullets by saying they were for the Social Security inspector general's office, which has about 295 agents who investigate Social Security fraud and other crimes.
When they say they're cracking down on waste, fraud and abuse, they apparently mean it.
However, as former Marine Richard Mason told reporters with WHPTV News in Pennsylvania recently, hollow-point bullets (which make up the majority of the DHS purchases) are not used for training because they are more expensive than standard firing range rounds .
"We never trained with hollow points, we didn't even see hollow points my entire 4-1/2 years in the Marine Corps," Mason said.
LaMalfa offers one theory that's less sinister than some: The federal government is simply trying to corner the market on ammo and restrict what's available to the American people as part of its gun control efforts.
War On Terror: Refusing to help the only people effectively fighting the IS scourge is just one of Obama's many foreign-policy failures.

Adam Levine's Fiancee Posts Photo of Him in His Undies

Hawt! The tattoos! The washboard abs! The tight undies. Adam Levine's model fiancé Behati Prinsloo posted a photo of her future hubby in his tighty, uh, blueys on her Instagram.
First comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes the task of finding a suitable urban nesting place! Adam Levine and his fiancée, model Behati Prinsloo, went house hunting in the trendy Soho district of NYC this week.
The original panel is back on 'The Voice!' Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green will be back in their big red chairs along with three-time winning coach Blake Shelton.
Levine, XTina and Green chatted with the Television Critics Association about what to expect from Season 5 -- and what Aguilera and Green thought of their temporary replacements, Shakira and Usher.
Adam Levine may joke that he's not a romantic (because that's what happens when you say you take women to McDonalds on dates), but his fiancee, Victoria's Secret model Behati Prinsloo, knows differently.
Adam Levine took to the stage on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' and as anyone who's ever seen 'The Voice' knows, he's a bit of a hoot. When he chatted with comic Kimmel, it got hilarious pretty quickly.
Have Adam Levine and T.I. been busy blazing something other than a trail up the Billboard charts?
Because saying "supermodel" wouldn't be verbose enough, Adam Levine is specifying just what he wants in a woman.
The jist? Only one item of clothing, not too much perfume and really, really low expectations.
Adam Levine once tweeted that he had no interested in entering the increasingly crowded, celeb scent sweepstakes. But he has had a huge change of heart, likely due to the chunk of cash ID Perfumes put in front of his nose to lend his name and to brand a pair of perfumes.

Zuckerberg and Newark Mayor Cory Booker (AP)
About $600,000 will be parceled out in $10,000 grants to teachers who come up with innovative classroom programs, The Wall Street Journal reports.
Newark's school system is under direct state control, and Gov. Chris Christie has encouraged the development of independent charter schools and other reforms there while sparring with the state's teachers union. Newark is one of 11 New Jersey districts that will begin to evaluate teachers based on their students' test scores and other factors this year.
The big donation has attracted some controversy. Newark officials were criticized in January for dropping $1 million on a survey asking residents how to spend the $100 million gift to the city's schools. The survey was unscientific and its answers were too simplistic to be of any use, university professors and city education leaders told the Newark Star-Ledger.

Fix Permissions
Fix permissions should do the same thing the script does which is available in almost all recoveries, The benefit to this app is that you don't need to reboot into recovery mode to fix those apps that are FC.
I will be adding a fix all option here soon.
Sometimes flashing roms, playing with permissions, or performing other root operation can cause the Android system to forget which UID is associated with an application. In reality it does not forget this, it just issues the app a new id and is oblivious to the fact that it already had an id. When this occurs some apps can start force closing due to the UID mismatch between the UID that the system has assigned to the app and the UID that owns that apps data directory.
This app will resolve these problems. If you have an app constantly force closing you can try using this app to see if it will resolve the issue. Simply select an app in the list below and I will do the rest :)
There is also a donate version of this app in the market if you would like to donate for my work.

App Manager
- Backup APKs to SDCard
- Install APKs from SDCard
- Un-install applications
Where are my Apps being backed up to?
On your external SDCard, in "~/Android/data/burrows.apps.appmanager"
Why doesn't App Manager back up app data?
To protect user's data! This application does not "image" your phone.
Why doesn't App Manager back up certain applications?
Usually the application was installed in the "/data/app-private" folder which is protected. Usually system application are stored here.
Permissions requested:
- Modify SD Card - Backup applications to SDCard
- Internet - Google Analytics/Send Feedback
App Manager by Jared Burrows

Send all suggestions to firstname.lastname@example.com
This app requires that you already have root, or a custom recovery image to work.
Note: App and binary will have different versions. The app is updated more often than the binary is.
This app cannot be uninstalled if it was installed with your ROM or root. If there is no uninstall option, it's because you placed it in /system/app, not me. It is impossible for an app to be installed in /system/app by the Play store. In fact, the entire /system partition is read only at runtime. The only way for an app to be placed in /system/app is via a rooting process (which usually installs Superuser), or by remounting the system partition as read/write and manually putting it there.
Permissions requested are for:
Internet - updating the binary
External storage - backup/restore for elite users
NFC - creating an allow tag for elite users
Boot completed - fix database on boot
Support request emails that simply say "Doesn't work" or something to that effect are automatically deleted by our stupidity filter and will not be answered.
MyPermissions - Privacy Shield
Protect yourself from unknowingly sharing photos, documents, locations, contacts, emails, or any other sensitive information. Use MyPermissions and take back control of your privacy!
✔ Scan your major online accounts and your phone to see what apps have access to your personal data
✔ 24/7 Protection - get alerts when apps gain access to your private info, and confirm your authorization or revoke permissions immediately
MyPermissions offers a powerful way to scan, track and control how applications access your personal information online and on your phone. Know what apps you've connected to on Facebook, Google, Twitter, Instagram and more are accessing what data - and approve, remove or report them.
- MyPermissions helps protect against privacy invasions across all major online services, including:
• Facebook
• Google+
• Twitter
• Instagram
• LinkedIn
• FourSquare
• Dropbox
MSNBC: "finds and fixes all your privacy settings"
Mashable: "Have 2 Minutes? Check Out Who Has Access to Your Social Media Accounts"
USA Today: "See what programs and services can borrow your keys [...] and think carefully and skeptically to decide if they still deserve that privilege."
Wired: "Finding the permissions pages can be tricky, but the nice folks at MyPermissions made a handy dashboard linking to every one"
- Start by scanning your phone. We'll take care of the rest by giving you a report on what apps have permissions to do what kind of activities.
- Then improve your protection by adding online account (social networks) you'd like to scan. We'll check for external connections using your online account to access your personal information, and add them to your report.
- Use the dashboard to get an overview of who's accessing your data on all your monitored services
- Need to enter your credentials? No worries! We don't use, collect, or store ANY of your personal data (we promise!) -- we'll direct you to the account's home website and you'll enter your information into their server
- MyPermissions is free to download and free to use with some limitations. Scan and monitor your phone and your first online service for free, and unlock additional services with a paid subscription.
To provide, manage and improve our services, we collect a list of the installed apps from your device. We use the list solely in an aggregated and non-identifying manner and we do not share this information with others.
!!! SuperSU requires a rooted device !!!
SuperSU allows for advanced management of Superuser access rights for all the apps on your device that need root. SuperSU has been built from the ground up to counter a number of problems with other Superuser access management tools.
Features include:
- Superuser access prompt
- Superuser access logging
- Superuser access notifications
- Per-app notification configuration
- Temporary unroot
- Deep process detection (no more unknowns)
- Works in recovery (no more segfaulting)
- Works when Android isn't properly booted
- Works with non-standard shell locations
- Always runs in ghost mode
- Wake on prompt
- Convert to /system app
- Complete unroot
- Backup script to survive CyanogenMod nightlies
- Icon selectable from 5 options + invisible
- Theme selectable from 4 options
- Launch from dialer: *#*#1234#*#* or *#*#7873778#*#* (*#*#SUPERSU#*#*)
NOTE: Not all phones take both codes. On some phones you need to use single *# instead of double *#*#
The Pro version additionally offers:
- OTA survival mode (no guarantees)
- Full color-coded command content logging (input/output/error)
- Per-app logging configuration
- Per-app user override
- Grant/deny root to an app for a set amount of time
- PIN protection
- Per-app PIN protection
- Adjust auto-deny countdown
The discussion and support thread can be found on XDA-Developers here:
This is meant to replace Superuser (if installed), you use either one or the other. You cannot combine them. Statements that this breaks Superuser are therefore completely nonsensical.
Superuser access management runs through a so called "su binary". There can be only one of these at a time. So if you install SuperSU, your previous superuser access management solution will no longer operate. So if you want to switch back: (1) Open that application, and search for an option for it to install/update/replace the "su binary". (2) Confirm root-using apps are using the superuser solution you want. (3) Uninstall SuperSU.
Want to help translate SuperSU ? See http://www.getlocalization.com/supersu/ !
These are completely optional and more like donations. They do not unlock any functionality.

Edible Book Competition
It's Wednesday afternoon and a group of library staff members have gathered for an important vote. Carefully examining the entries, they mark down votes on a ballot which includes categories from "wittiest/punniest" and "most resembles a book," to "most inedible." This is Lamont Library's first edible book contest since 2009 (though I will come to see that both the "book" and "edible" requirements are really more like loose guidelines), a celebration of the scholarly and scrumptious. Lamont's contest is an incarnation of the Edible Book Festival, an annual competition for "bibliophiles, book artists, and food lovers around the world," according to the website.

I've been blessed with great family and...
I've been blessed with great family and friends, and now I'm looking for that special person to share life with. I'm a positive, confident, easy going down to earth person who loves to laugh and have fun. I love the outdoors but also love staying home to curl up on the couch with a book or movie. Living healthy and being physically fit are very important to me and I work out and eat right...most of the time ;-). I enjoy a good hike in the mountains, a day at the beach, or just a walk or bike ride around town. As far as career goes I'm a very successful computer engineer and ex-trial lawyer. I didn't get disbarred or anything like that. Lol. I just didn't like being a lawyer and decided that life's too short to do something you don't love. I live in Hoboken (which I think is a really awesome and fun town) and commute into Manhattan. I like to read or watch the news to stay up to date with current events, but I'm also a history buff and love to learn about the past. When I travel I think it's cool to visit a place with historical significance, or at least a good beach. :) But I haven't travelled nearly enough! Day trips on the weekend are awesome, and so are faraway places. I want someone to share the journey with. So who am I looking for? Someone who is attractive, intelligent, fun, kind, can keep cool during the tough times and laugh during the good times. If you're out there I'd love to meet you. :)

Joaquín Eufrasio Guzmán
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (March 2009)
Joaquín Eufrasio Guzmán was President of El Salvador 15 February 1845 - 1 February 1846.
This Central American statesman was born in Cartago, Costa Rica, in 1801 and died in San Miguel, Salvador, about 1875. In the dissensions between the Federal and Centralist parties, Guzman joined the former, and became lieutenant-colonel. He was elected vice president of Salvador in 1844. with General Malespin as president, and when, in the same year, war was declared with Guatemala, Guzman became acting president, while Malespin commanded the army in person. Afterward, while Malespin was making war on Nicaragua, Guzman pronounced against him, 2 February 1845, and was joined by the greater part of the inhabitants of the capital, and a portion of Malespin's little army. Malespin was deposed, and Guzman assumed the executive office till the end of the presidential term. Malespin, with a force from Honduras, invaded the state, but was defeated and assassinated. Guzman was rewarded by the assembly with the rank of general of division, but favored a free election, and in 1848 delivered the office to his successor, Aguilar. He was several times elected to the legislative assembly, the council of state, and the prefecture of the department where he resided.
His son David Joaquín Guzmán was a politician and doctor.

Torn MCL?
My friend has just tore her MCL playing hockey last night. How long is she expected to be out? Will it be for the rest of the year?
well it really depends on how bad she tore it, if its bad she'll be done for the year but if she had a minor tear and started physio as soon as she was able to she could make it back, granted it depends how long her season is
If it's a full tear, forget this year. Period.
It ended my playing, altogether. Even after it healed, I lost two full gears in terms of speed, and I was never strong enough to get by without being fast. Also, my ability to maneuver suffered.
When I was 13, I tore the MCL and broke the upper end of my fibula in my left knee in the same accident. The doctor was more worried about the broken bone, and my treatment was more designed to treat that. For the stabalization of my knee, and the ability to walk normally, it was the right call. Surgery then or since hasn't been a practical option (re: financial).
But my MCL has suffered ever since because it never got the chance to fully heal. Hell, I can dislocated my knee with no pain because of all the residual damage in the last two decades. As you can probably guess, my atheltic career pretty much died with that accident. I had hoped for recovery, but two years after that I completely tore a ligament in my right ankle. Took me six months before I could walk without crutches and/or a cast from that injury. Toast is the approriate word.
Not too long ago, my brother and I went to Centennial. He hadn't been for a skate in a while and I tagged along. I was sitting at the bench with a couple of mothers watching their kids. One of them asked me why I wasn't out there skating and I gave her the Cliff's Notes version. I never even fully realized it until I was asked; but she said that I looked as if I really wanted to be out on the ice. I did so badly, but after all the injuries I did whatever I could to put it out of my mind.
Probably not germane to the topic, but I felt like spilling it.
That's harsh. I'm sorry that happened to you...
Because knee ligament tears happen so often (especially in football), people tend to underestimate them.
Anyone who has ever had a knee injury knows what kind of disaster ligament tears are.
I love playing hockey, I love thinking about hockey and thats it.. when im on the ice nothing matters. I guess hockey to me is what drugs is to some other people :)
Don't want to alarm you but please let your friend know that she should consult more than one doctor and go with reputation. Each orthopedist have different strenghts. Some are great with knees, some others with shoulders and so on. Generally speaking, MCL repairs are not as successful as ACL repairs and it is tougher to come back to 100% after such an injury if it is completely torn.
yeah i know what you mean.
2 years ago i dislocated my knee and tore a couple ligaments during a roller hockey game and the doctor told me that it would have been better if i would have snapped my leg in half

This innovative, dual-component program offers both breadth and depth through a solid foundation in natural sciences and a focus on understanding environmental issues across earth, atmospheric, life, and social sciences.
Our undergraduate minor is a multi-disciplinary program that aims to broaden students' understanding of environmental science and policy and how the decisions we make affect the environment around us.
This student-initiated, student-led program offers undergraduate courses that connect students to the world of sustainability and helps to make the UCLA community a model of sustainability.
This innovative professional doctorate program provides practical education for tomorrow's environmental problem solvers by emphasizing the interactions and interdependencies between science, engineering, public policy, economics and law in the protection of the environment and public health.
This certificate program, open to all UCLA graduate students (masters and doctoral), aims to provide a mechanism for students to pursue their interests in sustainability and to collaborate with students from different fields.
The UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability (IoES) is looking for Environmental Science Senior Practicum Group Project proposals for the 2015–2016 academic year. The Practicum is a capstone research experience for students pursuing a B.S. in Environmental Science at UCLA, in which projects will be undertaken by teams of 6-7 students working with a faculty advisor between October 2015 and June 2016. Each project is defined and conducted in collaboration with an outside client such as a public agency, private business, or non-governmental organization to address a current environmental science, policy, or management problem or challenge, while providing students with experience in environmental problem solving in a professional setting.
Project proposals are due Wednesday, May 20, 2015.
