Sentencing in Illinois gym teacher's sex abuse case may be delayed again
FAIRFIELD, Ill. - The sentencing of convicted sex offender and former Fairfield Community High School gym teacher Haven A. Kirkpatrick may or may not take place as scheduled Wednesday morning as questions remain over her legal representation.
Kirkpatrick, of Carmi, Ill., could face between three and seven years in prison on each of eight felony convictions of aggravated criminal sexual abuse of a student.
On Friday, Kirkpatrick filed a motion for substitution of counsel. Court records show she wants to replace Benton, Ill., attorney Bryan Drew, who represented her during her October bench trial, with Flora, Ill., attorney Gary Milone.
However, as of Tuesday afternoon, Drew had not officially withdrawn his representation from the case as requested by Kirkpatrick, and Milone had not officially filed his notice of appearance in the matter.
Additionally, Milone has filed a motion for a continuance in the case, claiming he has not had enough time to discuss the presentencing report with Kirkpatrick, nor has he had time to discuss her mental and physical evaluations prior to sentencing.
Milone also filed notice of an intent to order a portion of the trial transcript which could also derail today's scheduled sentencing hearing before Judge David Frankland.
Kirkpatrick, now 30, had originally been scheduled for sentencing on Dec. 14, but that was delayed until after the holidays. She was next set for sentencing on Jan. 23, but that was delayed because of an illness in the defense team. The matter was then re-scheduled for Feb. 8 at 10 a.m.
Edwards County State's Attorney Michael Valentine, who is the special prosecutor assigned to the case, says he is ready to proceed to sentencing.
Kirkpatrick posted $10,000 cash bond and has been free since her arrest in July 2010. After being found guilty in the case, the Fairfield Community High School board fired her.

text: Breaking: T-Mobile Internals Confirm Samsung Is Holding the Android World Hostage Allen Kiehl 12 January, 2011 92 Comments We recently received a tip from someone who claims to work internally at T-Mobile. The information in the tip has just confirmed everything we have ever thought about Samsung, OTA's and new devices. Our source has confirmed that there is already a fully functioning 2.2 OTA update ready to be pushed out by T-Mobile but Samsung has told them NOT to release the update for fear of it decreasing the value of the newly announced Vibrant 4G+. Further information has revealed that not only is the Samsung Vibrant 4G nothing more than a Vibrant with a front facing camera (FFC), but the software update would also enable the same 4G speeds that we are already capable of. The only thing missing at this point is a nice little 4G icon on your screen, which is in the update as well. This is questionable as the hardware needs to support HSDPA+ for this to work, but you never know. Quote from our Tipster: Some disturbing things have happened the last week or so concerning our "Vibrant". Samsung has NOT allowed us to push the update OTA for 2.2 because they feel it will decrease the value of the upcoming Vibrant4G +. While from a marketing aspect i totally understand, as the Vibrant 4G is what the original Vibrant should have been in the 1st place. But to shun off and bold face lie to customers is NOT what T-Mobile is about. …Being that, Vibrant 4G and Vibrant have exactly same stats, added FFC and a new movie and the 4G. But i will tell you this, the original vibrant CAN utilize 4G FULLY. Yes FULLY. not what they are telling you. This recent information just solidifies our previous thoughts about the the recent device announcement. It's nothing more then what we already have with the addition of a FFC. News like this also makes me shift more of my frustrations away from T-Mobile and more toward the manufacturers making life extremely difficult. So what is Samsung doing? I'm not really sure at this point. Everything points to the company being dead set on sales numbers instead of keeping the people that have made them millions happy. If this is Samsung's business model it sure is not going to keep them in the front running for very long. We have contacted Samsung and are currently waiting for them to respond. UPDATE: The source of this information contacted us once more with a little update about the 4G performance he mentioned. This is what he said: We have already put it out there that most of out devices would see a speed boost with the new network. Just the Vibrant will see a bit more. So I dont see why that is such a huge surprise to your readers. But not full 4G. So as you can read, it's not going to be full 4G compatibility, but he does say that the Vibrant will get a bigger advantage from the upgrade than other phones on the network. I think we'd all like to see any increase in speed no matter how small it is. We cannot validate nor deny this speculation at this time, however we are just relaying the information provided to us. Pierceye Why is this not at all surprising news? Nathan lundie Really now? What the heck! I feel like I have given them a chance but if this turns out to be true that is extremely frustrating! Winston I don't think this is true at all. It's one thing to hold back the Vibrant, but Nexus S doesn't support HSPA+ either, so I think the support isn't in the hardware. Todd the supoort is in the hardware – there are a half dozen leaked Froyo builds for the Vibrant easily available. http://twitter.com/harpocrates23 harpocrates23 The support for froyo is there..not for 4g…even getting the ffc working with the existing hardware has been a pain for some of the best devs out there http://www.androidspin.com Simon N. Walker I'm skeptical about this part also. But you never know. http://twitter.com/harpocrates23 harpocrates23 Agreed…this does not sound right…we have to wait for official announcements rather than relying on this so called leaked info… The hardware isn't there and the vibrant 4g isn't what the vibrant was supposed to be..thvibrantt IS what it was supposed to be…have all these rumors made everyone forget what this phone is capable of??? Granted its the community that released its full potential…but don't forget that samsung didn't lock it down…where as the g2 by htc was!!! Wait and see before jumping to conclusions M S Johnson Samsung Troll HTC And thats why Samsux!! Anonymous Breaking news! Manufacturers care only about the current quarter's bottom line! Filmateleven. Seriously though, was there ever any questions on who is holding up the firmware upgrades on phones? This is exactly why I refuse to buy hardware that is locked down. Das_Negros What kind of pucky bullsnot is this mularkey. I have just as everyone else been waiting for 2.2 for my Vibrant. If it wasn't for my Droid work phone it would have been rooted or booted. And BTW….we can actually buy the camera and install it ourselves ! Thanks Samsung…………..Bastards Das_Negros What kind of pucky bullsnot is this mularkey. I have just as everyone else been waiting for 2.2 for my Vibrant. If it wasn't for my Droid work phone it would have been rooted or booted. And BTW….we can actually buy the camera and install it ourselves ! Thanks Samsung…………..Bastards http://twitter.com/EmptyKoolAidCup EmptyKoolAidCup T-Mobile needs to reverse the anger and tell Samsung NO NEW CRAP UNTIL YOU UPDATE WHAT WE HAVE! Pjmandrik And samsung will say ok im sure AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and other sub cariers will buy our phones. Basiix They already do… http://pulse.yahoo.com/_62PDCPKCUZ67C55BWMMLNFGDXM Robbie Pritts and they will do the same to their other customers and eventually people will see how samsung truly treats their customers http://twitter.com/EmptyKoolAidCup EmptyKoolAidCup T-Mobile needs to reverse the anger and tell Samsung NO NEW CRAP UNTIL YOU UPDATE WHAT WE HAVE! Riz I knew it! Something just didn't smell right and that is the marketing/sales department of samsung. I hate you sammy, I really hate you! http://twitter.com/mnguyea David Nguyen Well, this doesn't surprise me after the scandal of Lee Kun-hee Samsung's CEO and just how the company operates in general. They are in the market of SELLING their phones and that's about it. They don't care much about their customers. Instead of just complaining do something. I'm sure if just 1% 10 million Galaxy phone owners emailed, called, blogged to voice their disapproval Samsung will bow down to it because like all Asian culture it is about not losing face and when you put that to the public if forces their hand. Michael Time for T-Mobile to man up and push the OTA regardless of what Samsung says. If they do, it will show that they care about their customers and it will show Samsung that these sorts of shenanigans aren't tolerated. Winston And if something goes wrong and Samsung doesn't support it due to premature release? Abc Samsung you morons, you have already lost a mill+ customers in the US. Krylon360 If they have the OTA ready to push, then JL5 is the OTA. I leaked this almost 3 weeks ago. Go enjoy it. STOCK ODIN .tar and rooted ODEX/DEODEX versions are posted on XDA. http://twitter.com/compuguy Alex Hall If that is true….then why doesn't JL5 show/indicate HSPDA+??? sombionix I don't think JL5 is the final product….but very close to it. I think if and when they ever release 2.2 OTA, there will be some code changes. Jokersax the only difference between the two radios is the ogvibrant uses 16qam were the new vib uses 64qam 64qam could be achived if you combine qpsk and 16qam at the same time(dual band). it is possible the vibrant already could do this and is disabled by modem file. too bad no one has vibrant modem source Winston And JL5 doesn't provide 4G support. Krylon360 If they have the OTA ready to push, then JL5 is the OTA. I leaked this almost 3 weeks ago. Go enjoy it. STOCK ODIN .tar and rooted ODEX/DEODEX versions are posted on XDA. Krylon360 If they have the OTA ready to push, then JL5 is the OTA. I leaked this almost 3 weeks ago. Go enjoy it. STOCK ODIN .tar and rooted ODEX/DEODEX versions are posted on XDA. http://twitter.com/harpocrates23 harpocrates23 The fact that this source is saying its samsung doing this and this is not what t-mobile is about..and that the original vibrant is fully capable of 4g is what makes it impossible to trust this source… If the 4g version specs are what the leaks say…BOTH samsung AND T-mobile would not release the froyo update because they BOTH benefit from the sales…don't be naive and think t-mobile would be all righteous about it…i worked for them for 2 years..they have all of us vibrant owners in 2 year contracts.. They don't need us anymore…they want new customers and holding back a froyo release to raise the value of this theoretical 4g vibrant would be in their interest as well. Robnok We need documentation! If true and prove-able, then would't this be some sort of collusion? Would that not open them up for litigation? FTC, FCC, SEC, or class-action law firm, anybody out there? JG Regarding the OTA update…this is Samsungs' history. This is not the first time they have done this! When you buy a Samsung phone, don't expect an update…..root your phone an apply one. http://twitter.com/Eugene_373 BH_MAN / Eugene373 The HSPA don't bother me that much, but if they are Holding Off the OTA due to the Release of the Phone. Ugh! sombionix I agree. I think its time we all sent Samsung some hate mail. http://twitter.com/Eugene_373 BH_MAN / Eugene373 I'm on Board with ya 😀 Swehes already did. Both over chat and email. http://twitter.com/Eugene_373 BH_MAN / Eugene373 The Thing People has to realize, is the Phone Supports HSPA, just not HSPA+. So yeah the 4G Icon is going to work.. Look at the First JP3 build I put out for the Vibrant, we had a fully working H icon when we was on HSPA vs. UMTS that we get now… This might be what he mean, but the hardware does not support HSPA+… http://twitter.com/watcher64 watcher64 I already did and called up TMO and gave them some hell, but as a bonus they are now giving me a free upgrade worth $200 whenever I want to take it http://twitter.com/Eugene_373 BH_MAN / Eugene373 The HSPA don't bother me that much, but if they are Holding Off the OTA due to the Release of the Phone. Ugh! Gagb This is just BS. They could have released the 2.2 version without updating drivers to full HSPA, the Vibrant is not capable on full HSDPA but HSPA with a max download thoretical of 7.2 mbps, while the new Vibrant is capable thoretical up to 21 mbps, and actual "4G" phones are being able to push 14.4 mbps on tmo. Mo713 That depends because the sprint epic 4g comes with a governor on how fast its 4g can be and the devs have been able to disable it. Who's to say the vibrant didn't ship with a similar governor? Jerzeeloon Thank god for the android dev community because at the rate these companies make there own handsets obsolete,the devs are the only thing keeping the current devices relevent.I love google,android,and the dev community,but fuck the greedy carriers and hardware manufacturers. Mo713 Alright I just want t know the release date of the Vibrant 4G. that way the guys over at xda can port the kernal and the FFC on my original can be finally be fully functional. Lindy Hendrickson FYI….in the beginning, T-mobile ordered the Vibrant without the FFC. Who is to dispute whether or not this was there intentions as well??? Calvinwatterson No they didn't get your facts straight. Wasn't offered. Look at all the other galaxy s phones is us. No other ones have it either. http://twitter.com/Guticb Bojan Gutic False. The Epic has it. It WAS offered, so you need to get YOUR facts straight. In fact, the Epic also has a camera flash. Jacob I just got a Vibrant a month ago, and I've been waiting for the 2.2 update. If this turns out to be true then Samsung will have lost a customer. This is simply unacceptable. parelem right there with you http://www.facebook.com/people/Trevor-Anderson/1295700306 Trevor Anderson same here. http://devin-gaughan.blogspot.com Devin Likewise. http://www.facebook.com/schneitj Tom Schneider Yeah, I don't think this is acceptable behavior by either company. http://twitter.com/opsdrums Joey Johnson Same here, bought TWO of them two montsh ago with the salesman using the froyo upgrade as a way to "sell" me, he promised it would be out BEFORE the end of the year, false advertising? Anonymous I said it once! If t mobile does this I'm leaving! Ghoff15 They better release an update be4 the 4g release, they will lose alot of customers David Class Action Aw Suit and US Attry General needs to look at them like they did with MS (IE)….Samsung 's CEO needs to leave as the honorable thing. Dsnuts02 I want my update dammit! David gotta love htc right about now. they can't beat xda at rolling out updates, but they sure do beat samsung. http://twitter.com/Eugene_373 BH_MAN / Eugene373 The Update more-less Covers what I posted an hour ago. http://www.facebook.com/GinUwiNLady Moira Washington that"s effed up! http://www.facebook.com/mpratt62 Michael John Pratt Its the behold 2 all over again but worse. I'm stuck with crappy T-Mo and that means Samsung, cause they are the only ones putting out decent phones even though they refuse to give updates in a timely fashion. But both companies would definitely be involved in a hold back, if this is true, which I didnt even need to read this to know. Luckily we have Eugene373, Team whiskey, as well as many others working hard to give us updates and the like. Just wish I wasnt stuck with Samsung or T-Mo. (I still have a couple upgrades left, might have to get the new vibrant, although it kills me to do it.) Calvinwatterson how you figure only samsung has good phones? Mytouch 4g, G2? what are those. I like t-mobile just not the crap samsung is doing. http://twitter.com/s_hunter shunter And this my friends is why I will be switching over to the LG,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, http://www.facebook.com/people/Trevor-Anderson/1295700306 Trevor Anderson i So hope the LG optimus x2 ia coming to t-mobile. im going to get that the first day i can. if possible. Tinkerhell Hey!! My husband sent this over to me this morning – http://blogs.computerworld.com/17649/android_upgrades?source=CTWNLE_nlt_dailyam_2011-01-13 Turns out: HTC, Motorola provide updates and Samsung, LG, Dell do not. Brian Correct me if I am wrong. But, JL5 does not have work JIT. No speed increase over 2.1, just better stability. I am running JL5 right now and aside from some tweaks, its the same thing. Also my GPS still doesn't work. It did under Ji6, but that ended quick enough. I will agree with the others, this is the last Samsung phone I will be buying. I may even pay the ETF and move to sprint. http://twitter.com/BiGMERF Marvin Feliciano Wow I am not even surprised.. Not one bit, no one should be http://twitter.com/stevedrz Steven Drzaszcz There seems to be credible evidence here that the original Vibrant, at least in theory should support 14.4 : Halfway down the page, it mentions the samsung vibrant using the infineon 5703, which on their site, lists Class 10 as the chip support (14.4 speed) http://www.ubmtechinsights.com/reports-and-subscriptions/investigative-analysis/samsung-galaxy-s/teardown/ http://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/channel.html?channel=ff80808112ab681d0112ab6ac1120609 Fbjh Thats it im definetely leaving tmobile for this. Stupid company. The original european galaxy s already supports that, now they really want to screw us over just because the vibrant piece of sh!t sold like hot pancakes, they are trying to make us pay twice as much. http://www.facebook.com/people/Trevor-Anderson/1295700306 Trevor Anderson its not t-mobile is samsucks Est1692 Its not Tmobile its Samsung you Noob!!! Michael T-Mobile is (so far) going along with the scheme. They're in collusion, so both are to blame. T-Mobile has a way out though, they can release the OTA, Samsung sales figures be damned. http://pulse.yahoo.com/_GRIFVUHCR7SCF2J4ACDIVSVGJM Hilton T.Y Stop waiting and just root people. This is an amazing phone if you get off the stock OS and use what's out there. As a matter of fact, the roms out there are more advanced than the Froyo update will probably be since most of them dump touchwiz and make the phone lightning fast. As for HSPA+, if it's that important buy another phone. http://pulse.yahoo.com/_CJU47K32P2WDQ3KTCZIC7ATHQY Francesco I knew since almost a year: you buy an expensive device with an expensive plan and you just hope for the good faith of your maker/carrier. And if the maker is Samsung prepare to be let down. I bought a Galaxy (not S) and I'm still stuck with a firmware with lot of problems and Android 1.6. But I shelved out 400€ and I'm not spending other money on a phone. Anonymous As much as this sucks They by no means have to update the Galaxy S at all. Look at all the Android devices that that are still on 1.6 and wont receive an update at all. We can complain and moan all we want but it is not gonna matter in the long run. The companies lawyers would have had something in their contract to protect them in this case. Back to HTC for me Anonymous Samsung is just cool like that dude. http://www.being-anon.it.tc Chuckiecanuckie Hi all I am from Canada. Samsung here is giving Bell a bad name here as well. I have called Samsung and you talk to people that are clueless could care less about costumers. I know if I root I would be better off but it would void my worenty. This is my second i9000m last one had no tv out and lots of problems with 2.2. Now the new one came with 2.2 but it still is having problems wifi, bluetooth, dropped calls, and after I hang up from a call it goes to my lock screen. But my tv out is good. Samsung even hung up on me when I had kies tell me there was an update and had Samsung Canada facebook telling me that there was one. They were telling me there was no update. I read the page told them kies had a popup telling me there was and was passed on to a superviser that still said there was none. I even told them to check the facebook page and they got pissed and hung up. Called back with no info (like my phone# and name and just said hear theres an update thats 3 hours old I hear people are happy. He told me that it came out the day before. I said why did I just get lied to and gave him names and said I even was hung up on. He couldn't help me why I was having a crepto error. Figured the problem my self. I dont know what they do to the 2.2 code but maybe they should hire darky and the boys. I'll stay away from Samsung next phone after Ive rooted this one after the worenty. Samsung better smarten up lots of other players coming on to play. My gps is crap my music through bluetooth keeps micro stoping dont happen with earbuds or back speaker but on bluetooth 2 differant stereo headphones. Worked ok on last phone before the 2.2 update. If there is a class action I want in too. The lawyers can keep the cash I just want a phone that works. http://pulse.yahoo.com/_QSIMR3M4YUWM4GKBXILV7YZZAI betoven i want in on the class action too, t-mobile hung up on me twice…. i want justice, i just paid $523 dollars two days ago and this is the service i get fron t-mobile? never again will i buy a samssung, or even worse theough t-mobile… and belive that next year im going with the big V…. Anonymous It's a corporation. They need to make $$$ for their shareholders (and themselves). They also tend to think short-term. If it f's up other people (like consumers) do you think they REALLY care? Anonymous There's such a thing as "enlightened self-interest." Companies that foul their nest like this find customers flock elsewhere. The amazing thing to me is how Google reps proudly pronounce this as a sign of the health and even near-perfection of the Android philosophy: the networks and manufacturers can do with it whatever they want, and Google's reputation is not at stake despite the fact that Google is making many of these claims about "free" and "open" that trip up consumers. Blahblah Author: it's "more than", not "more then". T-Mobile Buyers Beware Just got off the phone after speaking with several T-Mobile representatives. The first person was probably the most honest who told me that release of 2.2 for the Vibrant might not happen because of the release to the new 4G phone. Could not see why I could have an issue with T-Mobile over a statement like that. Lucky for me I confirmed that I was off contract (beginning today) for the two phones I have with T-Mobile. Customer retention told me that it would be a shame for me to leave T-Mobile after so many years with them over the issue of a software release. The issue is lack of integrity on the part of T-Mobile. Shame on T-Mobile – they are in bed with Samsung and pretending that they have no say regarding release of 2.2 for loyal customers who bought the original Vibrant. Anonymous I actually had a feeling something like this was going on. I hate SAMSUNG so much. Mpic Is there some kind of lawsuit brewing here. When I bought my vibrant I was told it was getting froyo. This is false advertisment. chris plotz Do I smell a lawsuit coming on. I think so. chris plotz Do I smell a lawsuit coming on. I think so. N20 If this is the case that Samsung is holding it back from release, I will take this personally. I ve been waiting for th fryo update for months. I will not buy anymore Samsung products in my case. If I have a choice between similar products and Samsung happens to be one of them, I will choose another one over Samsung because of the way Samsung is treating its galaxy vibrant buyers. I will put my 200 plus dollars in another brand…my two cents.

Think of this as Volume 18, Number 48 of the newsletter I have written weekly since March, 1997. Enjoy.
A few weeks ago I posited the theory that President Obama threw the last election so that Democrats can come back stronger in 2016 and beyond.
But there's another theory, and it's based on a recent visit to the suburbs.
Atlanta is divided into two parts. I live Inside the Perimeter (ITP). Most of the city is Outside the Perimeter (OTP), the I-285 ring freeway dividing them from one another. I've been surprised that anyone could be against this government since life is great ITP. My home's value has increased, there are tons of new shops and restaurants opening up within walking distance, and the new intown malls built over the last 10 years are crowded all the time.
As I've written here many times, the center of our economic life is changing. It's moving from offices to labs. Most of the jobs done in office towers – marketing, middle management, etc. – can now be done by computers. Those jobs aren't coming back.
The Mad Man era is over, Willy Loman is now an algorithm, and if Dan Draper can't code he's hitting the bricks alongside him. The offices that remain are basically factories, software factories. Atlanta is lucky to have so many software companies, especially in complex areas like transaction processing, which happens to be where my wife has made her career.
S0 economically, things are great in my household. I have been doing pretty well moving my beat from technology to finance. She has been doing great at her job, which she's very good at. Our assets have grown substantially in the last six years, and our lives much more convenient. It has been a great time for us.

Texas Department of Transportation kicks off National Work Zone Awareness Week with safety message
PORTLAND - Adriana Garanzuay, 8, smiled shyly under her hard hat and fidgeted with her orange and yellow safety vest. Her quiet words Tuesday drove home the message the Texas Department of Transportation hopes to make this week — be safe and drive smart.
"Don't text and drive in the work zone; my grandpa works here," Garanzuay said.
The department is observing National Work Zone Awareness Week and kicked things off with a news conference at the Portland Fire Department, asking for help from the public to observe traffic signs and exercise caution on busy roadways.
"There have been too many fatalities that have occurred in work zones," said Lonnie Gregorcyk, TxDOT engineer for the Corpus Christi district. "Ultimately, work zone safety is in hands of all of us who drive."
The Corpus Christi district covers 10 counties and recorded 493 car crashes in work zones in 2012, including five that led to fatalities.
"We're seeing (crashes) more and more in the Eagle Ford Shale area," said Rickey Dailey, a spokesman for the department. "Our crews are extra busy keeping up with the growth in the counties to the north and west of us."
No department employees from the Corpus Christi district were killed in collisions last year and officials hope their efforts continue the trend.
Four out of five people killed in work zones are drivers or their passengers, according to the agency, and drivers can help prevent crashes by being patient, silencing cellphones and not tailgating, said Cpl. Charlie Ramirez, with the Department of Public Safety.
"It involves more than just keeping two hands on the wheel," Ramirez said.
The message also will be on area roadways in the form of 12 electronic message boards — 10 in Nueces County and two in San Patricio County — that will blink with warnings such as "Use caution in work zones," followed by "Be safe, drive smart in work zones."
Texas drivers should expect to come across a work zone at least every 70 miles, Dailey said.

We had never ordered any Sporti products before. I ordered the Sporti grabbag and my son loves the fit of the jammers. Will definitely order Sporti again.
Swimmer mom
Size: Feels true to size
I took the advice of one of the comments and went up a size from the size my husband usually wears and it was perfect. The only reason why I gave them four stars is because I bought five of the grab bags that had all the same style jammers which was disappointing. Grab bag to me, means variety or I would have just picked my own specific style and color jammer.
Henderson, NV
Great buy!
First time trying jammers. They are perfect for lap swimming. Best purchase I have made. True to size. No complaints at all. Will buy another pair.
Williamsport Pa.
Great for swimming
I practice 4 times a week. I Used the traditional swimsuits until i bought a pair of these. Honestly, jammers were the most comfortable suit i have ever worn, Sporti has a great eal for the grab bag.If you buy it, which i strongly recommend, before trying it on, grab both waist drawstrings and make a knot like tying a shoe so you wont loose your string inside the jammer waist area.

Good quality - not happy with color
I ordered this as a practice suit for my 10 year old son knowing I couldn't return it and hoped for the best on color - unfortunately the suits that came were pink and purple leopard print and he wasn't too happy and wasn't going to wear it - so I used a black sharpie and covered the pink and left the purple and he seemed ok with it - I put it through the wash twice and he wore it once in the water and it seems the sharpie stayed

perfect practice suit!
Very happy with the suits for practice. Price was great! Ordered two, one for each of my twins. So far they have worn well and the boys say they are great.
Rock Falls, IL
Do not order more than one!
I ordered 3 grab bag suits for my son; you would think they would send you 3 different suits, right? No, they sent me 3 of the same suit. They said I could return them but I was responsible for shipping. If they had looked at my account they would have seen they I order at least 10 jammers, goggles etc from them every year. What fools to not pay for my return shipping. I will find a new merchant to get my son's swim gear.
Not happy

EA Explains Why Mirror's Edge 2 Took So Long
It had to be the right idea at the right time. We want it right now.
It was an awesome surprise to behold Mirror's Edge 2 during EA's press event during E3 2013. But really, what took so long? After all, the first installment appeared in November 2008 for the consoles and several months later on the PC. Executive vice president Patrick Söderlund of EA Games said the sequel's delay was all about the right concept and the right idea.
"Sara Jansson who is producer on it, when she pitched her idea to me and Karl-Magnus, the GM for DICE, I was frankly blown away," he told GameReactor. "I'm like 'Finally, you've got it!' and when you hear something like that... She pitched an idea that frankly could only be built on Gen 4, is a stunning concept, and when she came to us we knew we had it. And yes, we've been testing ideas and we've been prototyping stuff, and I'm glad that we waited to get the right idea."
Mirror's Edge 2 will be a first-person action adventure, he said, and will be different than what we experienced in the first installment – an innovative game that will definitely surprise people. "Today DICE is a large studio with a lot of people, and for DICE to be building Mirror's Edge [2], Battlefield and Star Wars: Battlefront is frankly crazy and a dream," he added. We bet.
In a separate interview with CVG, he said that a sequel wouldn't have been possible on the Gen 3 consoles, AKA the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3. He also admitted that the first installment sold 2.5 million copies, so naturally a sequel would eventually arrive – it was only a matter of when and how.
"I'll be honest with you: we've been looking at Mirror's Edge for many years and had small prototype teams and incubations around what it could be," he said, adding that he didn't feel an immediate pressure to start full development until Jansson presented her steaming hot idea. "The interesting part is that it was a game that could only be built in gen 4 and that was cool. I liked that because what they're doing, it's not possible on the current generation."
At the end of June, EA Labels president Frank Gibeau also talked up Gen 4 regarding Mirror's Edge 2, saying that the time was right to work on the sequel. All that freshly-based technology and extra computing power will take the Mirror's Edge franchise to the next level, he said. The project also now has the right story and the right leadership. Right on.
"Our goal in any product is to try and grow the audience," he said. "We're definitely taking into account the opportunity to reach a bigger group of people. We think we've got the right story and accessibility that can do that. It's a title that did multiple millions of units, so it has a fairly widespread audience. It's not an art film. But we do see an opportunity to grow it."

6Fredrik Aldhagen , July 28, 2013 6:21 PMHey EA, video games did exist prior to the original Playstation, you even made some for the Megadrive and SNES...
-2Elevory , July 28, 2013 6:27 PMWhen I hear "only possible on gen 4", my brain translates the message to mean "only possible with that new, tacky peripheral nobody wants to use". Curse you, gaming industry!
6Shin-san , July 28, 2013 6:55 PMI would like to see the game to see their justification
6DarkSable , July 28, 2013 7:37 PMI want it. Just make it a smoother, prettier mirror's edge and let me run around in it, and I will throw all my money at you.
...just don't make it only be on origin. Or freaking fix origin first.
5booyaah , July 28, 2013 9:15 PMReal reason:
"Sorry it took us longer than expected to figure out how to put our next gen DRM controls on it."
3shikamaru31789 , July 28, 2013 10:58 PMI still don't get why EA keeps calling it Gen 4. They've been making games since the 3rd generation of consoles, this gen is the 8th gen, so this would actually be their 6th generation making games, not their 4th.
5randomizer , July 29, 2013 4:06 AMQuote:I still don't get why EA keeps calling it Gen 4.
EA's target market isn't old enough to know that there existed consoles prior to the PS1 and N64.
1g00fysmiley , July 29, 2013 5:34 AMmaybe they call it gen 4 just as a time progression relative to the playstation alone, or the transition to disks? who knows i don't really care how they term it as long as i get to play mirror's edge, the first one was so much fun. though i hope origins is not a reuirment or i will once again have to buy an ea game and play on console because i do not want that on my computer
1subaru41 , July 29, 2013 7:24 AMThe delay was due to EA trying to figure out how to maximize their profits by adding as much in game purchases as possible such as: You want to save your game progress, that will be $2.99.
4internetlad , July 29, 2013 8:20 AM"We didn't think it would make us enough money until recently"
4belardo , July 29, 2013 10:57 AMIts Always sad to see any game with "EA" stamped to it.
010hellfire01 , July 29, 2013 11:31 AMI think this is another game I won't pre-order because of my love for the original. I have a feeling EA, as any publisher, is becoming too involved.
Anyhow, "Gen4" either refers to Frostbite 4 (eh...) or the 4th sequential generation of consoles that render 3D animation/CG. Yeah, I know, it's idiotic.
0aoneone , July 29, 2013 4:10 PMThis + Oculus Rift please! ^_^
0cobra5000 , September 9, 2013 10:29 PMWell, as long as the sequel doesn't use physx to slow it down to a slideshow, like the first one did. Choppy, choppy, choppy! Great game, other than that.
0spat55 , September 10, 2013 6:19 AMI got this in the humble bundle. I am glad I did otherwise I would of never played such a beautiful game, the colors really made the game, I liked how the cutscenes were more along the lines of drawings, so allow you to use your imagination more rather and was more unique.
I would like to see the next Mirror's Edge with some differences, like Occlus Rift and make faith move more freely, as the old Battlefield movements didn't go very well with this kind of game.
0toastybatch565 , September 28, 2013 4:33 PMBF4, Mirror's Edge 2, and Battlefront 3. EA will literally be pissing money for the next decade.
0cats_Paw , October 15, 2013 7:31 AMOh sorry, EA is saying something? Yeah, guess i simply will ignore their Bull**** to leave more space in my brain for something usefull.
1cobra5000 , November 22, 2013 4:22 PM"it was a game that could only be built in gen 4 and that was cool"? Then why hasn't it been out for PC, three years ago? Oh yeah, Marketing and Stockholders.
0spat55 , December 16, 2013 10:42 AMJust make it more fluid than the original with free roam, and take your time, I do not want a game as Buggy as Battlefield 4!
0kaptu100 , December 20, 2013 3:02 PMThe statements by EA execs in this article are worrying to me. Whenever a publisher, especially EA, says they want to 'grow the audience' they mean that they intend to water down the unique elements that made the original game distinct, engaging and challenging. They mean that they intend to cash in on the success of the original game by pumping huge amounts of money into marketing the next 'blockbuster' instalment. Subtle yet poignant social and political commentary, such as that delivered by the original game, has no place in such a title. Neither does challenging game mechanics which are rewarding only after a steep learning curve. The narrative also gets dumbed down where stereotypes and trite plot devices abound. Innovation is risky, especially for a large company and with a product attempting to fill rather large shoes. So here is what I advocate we all do: Do not pre-order this title. Do wait for a good chunk of reviews to emerge after launch. This way we might, ever so slightly, let EA know that they need to create a decent game FIRST before exploiting the successes of past titles, titles held dear by many gamers.

One HUGE issue I have with this site and with a lot of the opinions posted by users is this whole "negativity" thing. Not everything is this world is sunshine and rainbows.. I agree, some people take it too far and are penalized for it with temp bans and whatnot. Giving feedback is often going to involve being negative if there are aspects about the game in questions in which you do not like. However, like youself, I give no quarter to name calling or excessive tomfoolery when being negative around here!
In short.. I see where you're coming from but it looks like a very judgemental post regarding certain users and a bit of apple-polishing to the site.

On the one hand you are saying there is room for all types of games and that eventually the game some people are dreaming of will be made, but then in the same breath you admit that the type of game these same gamers are dreaming of isn't being made because it is dated and not in tune with the current tastes and demands of the community. Huh?
No, the truth is the success of some games, most notably WoW, have profoundly impacted the types of other games being made and how they are made. And while, yes, there are more games made today than in the past, the diversity of games is actually less because the success of WoW caused a massive rush to immitate its design philosophy. In the old days, the difference between SWG, Everquest, and Shadowbane were profound. Today, while there is definitely some diversity, many if not most of the games -- particularly if we are talking AAA titles -- are basically following the lead of some previous title, resulting in many clones and less diversity of game philosophy. For example, while there are a ton of Korean MMOs in the market -- certainly a lot to choose from -- they are all so similar to one enough we might just consider them just ONE game, maybe two. (Age of Wushu looks interesting . . . )
The reality is that when it comes to AAA games, they are so expensive to make these days that companies aren't willing to take huge risks. They want to stick with what they know (think) works. In that regard, there is actually less diversity. However, with the failure of SWTOR there has been a huge breaking up of the certainty over what works, offering a period of innovation and diversity similar to the 2nd gen mmorpgs. But that is precisely because one game, ONE GAME, failed. So I do think the success or failure of one game does make a huge difference to the rest of the market.
Anyway . . . kind of off topic here.

Well, there are several types of people.
Some are just "negative". That's who they are. In some cases they are angry disenfranchised people who are looking to lash out at something because of their own issues.
You then have people who have been burned one time too many. They see some of the issues in these games, the developers, the genre really, and when they hear the marketing pitch they assume (and in some cases rightly so) that it's another pitch for snake oil.
And then you have the isuse that this is a text based site. Meaning that just because someone says "x game is crap" they might not mean it to come off as an angry tirade but just a casual aside.
Also, as per another poster, I'm not convinced that this site is about taking kickbacks for a good review. There are players who strongly assert that if the review is good and it doesn't jive with what they believe or what is considered "common knowledge" on this site then somehow a bribe happened.
I have read many of the reviews on this site and they seem to be more close to genuine than not. Meaning, I get that these reviewers are earnest in their opinion. their spelling mistakes aside. However...
One caveat to that is that I can easily see someone saying "do the review and couch your language in such a way that it softens the negative".
Because it seems that there are members of this and other sites who take a rant for telling the truth and "being honest". You can completley lambaste something and not even break a sweat or seem like you are taking a sledgehammer to it.
Still, there is something to be said that some people are just blunt. that's who they are. And because everything is being done through text we are missing that.

Again, I disagree. The notion that LOTRO and STO and TERA and GW2 and EVE and WoW and SWTOR and The Secret World and Wizards 101 and many, many others can all be given the same "WoW-clone" moniker tells me that either the definition of WoW-clone is so broad as to lack meaningful boundaries or is simply a method of conveniently dismissing the very real differences between them to reinforce an broadly-held, rarely scrutinized opinion. Beyond the fact that Everquest, UO, DAOC, and other genre starters still exist, it's simply untrue that there is less variety in MMO now than there was back then. It may not be the type of variety that one person enjoys, it may not be a true emulation or update of kinds of gameplay that the genres forefathers created, but it's a fact that the MMO space is more diverse than ever, not less, the differences between various games at one spectrum and the other even further amplified than before.
I didn't mean to imply that success of a game has no bearing or impact on the industry. I took pains to make it clear that the success of a single game does not necessarily impact positively or negative the success or failure of another individual game. It's the nature of both art and business to see what's come before and borrow (sometimes liberally) but the suggestion that somehow SWTOR failed because of WoW or that Neverwinter's success or failure relies on the existence of WoW is a hollow argument. Yes, WoW helped define the genre, in much the same way as Baldur's Gate defined CRPGs and DOOM defined shooters. The comparisons will be there; features that seem to work will be iterated upon and brought into new titles. However, the success of a game relies on its own implementation, its own creativity, it's own fun.

Lotro is a WoW clone with a few unique features. STO . . . I can't say much about having never played it. I can say the previous cryptic game, Champions Online, was a WoW clone (CoH was pre-WoW). Tera is a WoW/Korean clone with a cool combat system. Eve was made before WoW and belongs to the pre-WoW gen along with EQ, DAoC, and AO. Swtor is a WoW clone, the last true and most epic WoW clone imo. Don't know Wizards 101. GW2 (and perhaps Secret World?) is the first real 4th gen post-WoW game that represent this new exiting time, so it represents a diversification that lies beyond the horizon of influence of WoW.
Obviously if you include old games that few people play anymore, like EQ, there is more diverisity, then we are just piling the new on top of the old, so obviously there will be more. But really the question is how much diversity is there among the truely compelling games, not fringe games that don't matter. IMHO, everything between WoW and GW2 was more or less a WoW clone in regard to the essential themepark design focused around quests/missions, soloability, raiding, etc. Look, I played WoW for a week, and then tried again a few years later and lasted a week . . . I learned the essence of WoW not from WoW, but from the large variety of games I tried, from Tabula Rasa and Auto Assault, to Age of Conan and Rift, and by talking to countless players who were constantly comparing everything to WoW. Now that we are leaving that period of time, following the disappointment of SWTOR and the arrival of GW2, I expect diversity to explode . . . and I think the last year or so suggests that that may be true. But the very acronym 'mmorpg' has become synonymous with games that model most of their features after WoW. The new games have to break the mold.
Of course the success of the game depends on the quality of that game itself. The issue isn't whether game X succeeded or not because of game Y. The issue is whether companies would even dare to make game Z after witnessing the success or failure of game Y.

Most games would be fun if there was an altogether better class of players.

So what if others race to end-game. No one needs your approval to play a game. May be you should care less about how others enjoy their entertainment.

This room might be known by different names, but it's the room where we spend much of our time relaxing, entertaining, and gathering together to laugh and play. Family room window treatments should reflect the casual and light-hearted purpose of this room. Here are some ideas to get you started in choosing the right family room window treatments.
If you have many windows or large windows, you'll definitely want a window treatment that can block damaging ultraviolet rays and that can reduce the heat gain from direct sunlight. Cellular shades are an excellent choice for both, and are available in varying opacities depending on your light control needs. There are a variety of other family room window treatments that can also provide the light control you need in the look you want.
If you have children or pets in the home, look for cordless family room window treatments to keep this family gathering space safe from the dangers of dangling cords. For windows that are very tall or difficult to reach, you may consider a motorized window treatment that can be remote controlled.
For rooms with a sliding door, there are great alternatives to the traditional vertical blind - for example, try a modern panel track blind. Many of the available fabrics are also available in other window treatments, such as woven wood shades, to give you a matching look for all your windows.

Edward B. Lauer, co-founder with his wife of Lauer's Supermarket & Bakery in Anne Arundel County, whose motto was "Make the customer feel like a king and queen," died Monday of complications from Parkinson's disease at his Severna Park home.
He was 85.
"It was his passion and lifelong dream to own a supermarket," said a daughter, Bernadette L. Snoops of Millersville, who now operates the two supermarkets with her sister, Babette M. Poyer, who also lives in Millersville.
The son of a Baltimore Gas and Electric Co. paymaster and a homemaker, Mr. Lauer was born in Baltimore and raised on Edmondson Avenue.
He was a 1944 graduate of Mount St. Joseph High School in Irvington, and earned a bachelor's degree four years later in business from the Johns Hopkins University.
"He was a self-made man and had worked since he was young. He put himself through Mount St. Joe and Hopkins," said another daughter, Elizabeth A. Gilley of Herndon, Va.
After briefly working for Pittsburgh Plate Glass Co., Mr. Lauer went to work in the early 1950s for the old Food Fair grocery stores, where he rose to manage stores in Severna Park and Mondawmin.
In the late 1960s, he left Food Fair and took a job with P.A.S. Small, a Pennsylvania grocery purveyor and distributor.
When Mr. Lauer first broached with family members the notion of buying a grocery store in Pasadena, they were somewhat skeptical.
In order to raise money and to secure a Small Business Administration loan of $150,000, the bank placed a lien on the "inventory and equipment in the store, rental property owned by the Lauers, and the Lauers' residence," said a 1997 article in the Baltimore Business Journal.
"You name it, and they put a lien on it," Mr. Lauer said in the article. "We would have lost everything, including our home."
In 1974, he and his wife, the former Helen Beaudette, whom he married in 1950, were able to purchase their first store, which they called Lauer's Super Thrift, on Mountain Road in Pasadena.
During the first six months of operation, they generated a profit of $18,000, to the surprise of many.
Mrs. Lauer died in 2009. An obituary in The Baltimore Sun credited her with using the phrase "fast, friendly and fresh, serving you is what we do best" in advertising. While her husband oversaw operation of other areas of the store, Mrs. Lauer supervised the produce department and bakery.
The couple's five daughters shared their parents' work ethic and at one time or another worked in the store during their teenage years.
"He was not hard to work for but was demanding in a nice way, and was always right there working with us," said Mrs. Poyer, who began working in the market in 1974 and returned to the business after graduating from the University of Baltimore in 1982.
For years, Mr. Lauer opened up and closed the store, which was open seven days a week.
"He never gave up, and that's the way he lived his life," Mrs. Poyer said. "He was a very determined person who liked people and liked the challenge of making money in a business that has a tough bottom line."
"He lived the business 24/7 and was hands-on. He was an outgoing and happy man who happened to be a very solid person," said Mrs. Snoops, who returned to the store full time after graduating in 1980 from the University of Baltimore.

I believe the simpler the better..... That being the case I'll be sincere and keep it short. First and foremost......I Do Not speak the 'Baby Mama - Baby Daddy' language and not looking to be Mr. Right Now either. I'm way too grown for that. However....... I do consider myself to be a funny, loving, silly, simple, grounded, clean, organized, stable, positive, easy going Gentleman with a sense of humor and absolutely NO DRAMA whatsoever. I live alone, hold my own and currently living a worried free life simply because I know exactly what my priorities are and I take care of my responsibilities. I'm a loving Dad to my kids physically, emotionally and financially. I am their rock and foundation and they are mine. I can genuinely say I'm extremely happy; I'm enjoying life again and definitely ready to meet a Lady that will permit me to spoil her while creating new memories. This lady can't still be hung over, has to be stable, works hard and knows how to play harder, can let her hair down and just kick it but can pick it up and make heads turn, a confident woman in every sense, doesn't take herself too serious but has balance, is Loyal, fun, funny, simple, caring, charismatic, loving, respects herself and is respectful, has a beautiful personality and if she has given life - definitely has to be MOTHER to her family before All. Meeting someone with these characteristics will without a doubt make creating memories much more exuberant. "Sometimes you just need to take your happiness and not wait for it to come.

Advice & Support
After your child has had surgery
for an
undescended testicle:
Males who have or have had an
undescended testicle, even when successfully treated, have an increased risk
for infertility.4 But finding and
treating the undescended testicle early may help reduce that risk. If you have
an undescended testicle and are concerned about your fertility, talk to your
doctor about your options.
Males who have or have had an
undescended testicle also have an increased risk for
testicular cancer.4 It is
important for these males to have regular medical checkups (at least once every
2 years) throughout life. These checkups should include a
testicular exam. If you have ever had an undescended
testicle, talk to your doctor about how often you need to be checked.
Extra care should also be taken to protect the testicle from injury, such
as by always wearing an athletic cup while playing contact supports.
Consult with a doctor if you have had surgery for an undescended
testicle and are now considering a
vasectomy. Sometimes the surgery for an undescended
testicle completely removes a testicle and reimplants it in the scrotum. The
surgeon may use the blood vessels that supply the
vas deferens to also supply the testicle in its new
location. During a vasectomy, the vas deferens is cut, and this could affect
blood flow to a reimplanted testicle.
If your teenage son has only
one testicle, you may want to talk with him about the possibility of getting a
testicular prosthesis. The prosthesis helps the
scrotum appear and feel normal and may help your son feel better about his
body. Whether a prosthesis is necessary for preteen boys is controversial. You
and your child will need to decide together how important it is for him to have
a normal-looking scrotum. If a prosthesis is implanted before
puberty, it will need to be replaced later with a
larger prosthesis that matches the adult size of the normal testicle.

The Poteau Lady Pirates softball team began the post-Spring Break portion of their season in fine fashion Monday afternoon as they run ruled the Pocola Lady Indians 9-0.
Just as the sunshine at the end of last week's Spring Break was much welcomed, so, too, was a Poteau Pirate baseball team victory in the final game of the 2012 Poteau Wood Bat Tournament.
The Pirates defeated the Sallisaw-Central Tigers 11-5 Saturday afternoon at Town Creek Park in the final game of this year's event.
CAMERON — The two LeFlore County baseball teams, the Cameron Yellowjackets and the Panama Razorbacks, who were at this site of the 2012 Poteau Wood Bat Festival both split their two games in which they played.
The 'Jackets defeated Moss 5-1 Friday afternoon, but lost by the same score Saturday afternoon to Fort Smith (Ark.) Northside.
Both of the Hogs' games were Friday. They run ruled Haileyville 15-0, but then were run ruled themselves 12-2 by Sallisaw-Central.
SPIRO — Spring Break's rain didn't totally wash out the 2012 Class 3A Preview this past weekend. One game got played, and the host Spiro Bulldogs got themselves a win.
The 'Dogs jumped out to an early lead and rode the advantage to a 10-2 victory over the Haskell Haymakers Saturday afternoon.
DALE — Last spring, the Wister Wildcats defeated the Dale Pirates to win the Class 2A State Tournament.
In a match-up Saturday afternoon between the same two teams which came about due to the Union City Festival being rained out Thursday and Friday, the Pirates avenged that loss — and in a big way.
The combination of a fast start and four Wister errors, the Pirates ended up run ruling the 'Cats 12-0.
MIDWEST CITY — It was a happy weekend for the Carl Albert State College baseball team. The Vikings posted a doubleheader sweep of Rose State College by scores of 4-1 and 6-5 on Saturday afternoon.
The same two teams will play a doubleheader beginning at 1:30 p.m. this afternoon at Ival Goodman Field. It begins three straight days of action for the Vikings, who will play the Bacone College junior varsity in a home twinbill at 1 p.m. Wednesday followed by a 1:30 p.m. doubleheader Thursday against Seminole State College.
CLAREMORE — Several members of the Poteau Spirit Center gymnastic team competed last weekend, with three members placing.
Michaela Wolf placed first in her age group, Shyanne Hutchison was runner-up in her age group and Cheyenne Wilbourn was runner-up in all-around in the age 8-and-younger division — all in Level 3.
Other gymnasts competing were Holly Bowman, Allison Blagg, Skylee Maynard, Courtney Kitchens, Katie Magness and Anniston Baker.
Three gymnasts, Corbie Buffington, Keegan Hudlow and Jenna Bowman, competed at Level 1, and took home several ribbons and a medal.
Finally, the 2012 Poteau Wood Bat Festival got underway Friday afternoon, but the host Pirates were not the ones celebrating a win.
Thanks to a six-run fifth inning, the visiting Dickson Comets rallied, and held off a potential seventh-inning rally by Poteau, to down the Pirates 6-5 at Town Creek Park.
