Disability Rights Legal Center
Disability Rights Legal Center - DRLC (formerly Western Law Center for Disability Rights) is an independent, nonprofit law office that provides free legal services to persons with disabilities. Disability Rights Legal Center is located at the LLS Public Interest Law Center in downtown Los Angeles, with a satellite office at the University of La Verne College Of Law.
Utilizing a legal and administrative staff, law student externs and volunteer attorneys, the Center provides much needed assistance to persons with disabilities through impact litigation, individual representation, telephone assistance trainings, and meaningful referrals to other agencies. These efforts, contributing significantly to the ability of persons with disabilities to secure their legal rights, are undertaken through the following projects:
The Cancer Legal Resource Center (CLRC) is a community-based joint program of the Disability Rights Legal Center and Loyola Law School. The CLRC provides free and confidential information and resources on cancer-related legal issues to people with cancer, their families, friends, employers, health care professionals, and others coping with cancer.
The CLRC has a national toll free Telephone Assistance Line (866-THE-CLRC) where callers can receive information about relevant laws and resources for their particular situation. The CLRC volunteer panel of attorneys and other professionals provide more in-depth information and counsel to CLRC callers.
The CLRC has extensive resources on a broad range of cancer-related legal issues, including health insurance, employment, government benefits, estate planning, advance health care directives, family law, and consumer assistance.
Staff members speak at workshops and outreach programs in the cancer community, including cancer support groups and in-service trainings for health care professionals. The CLRC regularly hosts informational booths at health fairs and other events in the cancer community. If you would like a CLRC staff person to attend your next event, please call us at 866-THE-CLRC.
The Civil Rights Litigation Project provides representation for low-income individuals with disabilities facing discrimination. We concentrate on cases that will establish important legal principles or benefit large groups of people with disabilities. We provide legal services without charge to its clients.
Our cases challenge discriminatory practices by government agencies, businesses, and educational institutions. Examples include, inaccessible newly constructed or altered buildings, refusal to provide sign language interpreters or alternative format materials, inaccessible government programs, discriminatory insurance and health care systems, inaccessible transportation services, and policies that exclude people with disabilities. To file a disability discrimination claim call, 213.736.1334.
The Education Advocacy Project (EAP) has worked to ensure that quality legal representation is available to traditionally underrepresented communities needing special education services. Students of color and low-income students with disabilities are often left out of special education, which leads to segregation, ineffective educational services, failure in school, and involvement in the juvenile justice system.
The EAP focuses it advocacy on remediation of the denial of a free appropriate public education (FAPE) and discrimination against children with disabilities in education by identifying systemic special education and related issues and addressing these issues through impact and individual litigation as well as appearing as amicus curiae in special education cases raising significant systemic educational issues. Current systemic issues include, but are not limited to: the denial of FAPE to children and youth in the juvenile and adult criminal justice system, the denial of adequate transition services, the denial of FAPE to and expulsion of children with behavioral disorders, among other issues. The EAP often co-counsels these cases with other local law firms and nonprofit legal agencies.
The Inland Empire Program is one of the fastest growing areas in California and covers nearly 30,000 square miles. Yet legal services are dismayingly scarce for low-income people with disabilities. Therefore, Disability Rights Legal Center has expanded its offices to serve San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. We are accepting special education and civil rights cases in those counties.
Lawyer Referral Service - We operate a State Bar certified Lawyer Referral Service, which refers callers with disability-related cases to experienced private attorneys in Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Ventura counties. The service provides four subject-matter panels: Labor and Employment, Access to Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities, and Administrative Law.
The Community Advocacy Program (CAP) serves as the front door to the Disability Rights Legal Center. CAP's method of intake reflects our deep conviction that many options outside of litigation are available to individuals with disability related disputes. CAP works hand-in-hand with Education Advocacy Project, and Civil Rights Litigation Project to conduct intake. The aim of CAP is to assist and empower those involved in conflicts to evaluate the options available to resolve their disputes. The service focuses on informing callers of all their options -- including litigation, mediation, and self-help - helping the callers decide which options to pursue, and identifying appropriate resources and referrals. We also offer Ask-A-Lawyer events at local Independent Living Centers and with other disability organizations in the community.
Pro Bono Program - Each year, the DRLC receives thousands of requests for legal assistance from people with disabilities-more than 5,400 such requests last year. While our committed staff and student externs work to capacity providing legal assistance, the need for our services far exceeds our resources. As a result, we rely heavily on our pro bono partners.

Rihanna hugged, then briefly kissed ex-boyfriend Chris Brown just moments after her big win at the MTV Video Music Awards.
The sometimes turbulent relationship between the two turned sweet for a brief interlude Thursday night during a commercial break after the pop star won video of the year for her hit "We Found Love."
MTV showed the grainy footage shot from a distance on its website Friday. As Rihanna walks off stage, she smiles and reaches out to embrace Brown. She gives him a quick kiss, then tussles his newly bleached blond hair as she exits.
The two split in 2009 after Brown attacked her, leaving her bruised and battered. She recently told Oprah Winfrey she still has feelings for Brown, though the two are not involved.

- Sure Foods Living – gluten-free and allergen-free living - http://surefoodsliving.com -
NYT you can do better than that…
Posted By Alison On May 9, 2007 @ In Celiac Disease,Gluten Intolerance,News & Research | 6 Comments
The New York Times put out a pointless article yesterday entitled Jury Is Still Out on Gluten, the Latest Dietary Villain.
After reading the article more than 10 times, I still can't figure out the writer's point — is gluten intolerance real or not? Is the gluten-free diet easy or not? Did one of her subjects, Ms. Miller, feel better after going gluten-free? We never find out. And how about a paragraph about dog food in the middle of the whole thing? I think I understand one thing: by calling gluten a "popular dietary villain" the writer is implying that going gluten-free is a fad. She states that celiac disease is as common as 1 in 100 people (or 1 in 22 for relatives of celiacs), but that gluten intolerance is just a "belief."
A gastroenterologist named Dr. Don W. Powell is quoted as saying: "A lot of alternative practitioners like chiropractors have picked up on it and are waving around magic silver balls, crystals and such, telling people they have gluten intolerance." I would like to know what Dr. Powell really thinks about the prevalence of gluten intolerance, not what he thinks about chiropractors and their balls!
Joseph Murray, a well-known celiac specialist from the Mayo Clinic is quoted as saying, "There's this 'go blame gluten' thing going on," he said. "It's difficult to sort out science from the belief." I would have asked him what the belief is – does gluten intolerance exist? The writer herself states "To be sure, whole wheat and other cereal grains that contain gluten can be hard to digest." So, is she saying that it is real?
Credibility has not yet been given to people who test negative for celiac disease but who feel better on a gluten-free diet. Yet, as acknowledged in the article, and by research and doctors, the tests for celiac disease are not 100% accurate. So what is a person to do if they are told they do not have celiac disease, but they know they feel better on a gluten-free diet?
Maybe there is something called gluten intolerance that is not celiac disease. If a person wants to try going gluten-free after exhausting all diagnostic tests, what is the harm? I have heard of several doctors that have told their patients NOT to try a gluten-free diet because they say it is too hard and it won't help them anyway. I will never understand this way of thinking. Why not say "Sure, try it. I hope you feel better." Isn't that the ultimate goal?
And yet, society (and this New York Times writer) pooh-poohs people who have chosen to eliminate gluten from their diets because there is lack of proof. The proof, of course, is in the (gluten-free) pudding.

Three arrested in Leicester after pig's head found by Muslim prayer group
Posted: December 28, 2012|
A woman and two men have been arrested after a pig's head was found on the doorstep of a community centre used by Muslim worshippers.
The severed head was discovered at the Thurnby Lodge Community Centre on Boxing Day by members of As Salaam - a Muslim group which uses the building for religious purposes.
It was found at about 7.30am when worshippers arrived at the centre, in Thurncourt Road, to open up for prayers.
Police said they are treating the incident as being religiously motivated.
The gesture could be seen as an insult as Muslims are forbidden from eating pork and many consider pigs to be unclean animals.
Earlier today, police arrested a 40-year-old woman and two men aged 37 and 46 in connection with the investigationIt follows a recent row over As Salaam's desire to use a nearby former Scout hut for prayers.
Residents claim the disused building should be used for a wider range of community activities.

Holiday Cheese Puffs
LUCY BURDETTE: Okay Reds, since 50% of us are attending the New England Crimebake this weekend, I'm posting the most wonderful hors d'oeuvre I can come up with so you can snack while we're away. These are positively decadent and delicious. There's one drawback: They look like little thumbprint jam cookies so it takes a while for the party guests to catch on that you're talking cheese, not sugar. Once a few people taste them, however, word spreads like wildfire and the plate will be snatched clean. So gobble a couple before you put them out. This recipe came from my good friend Cathy Crook.
1/2 lb. sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 stick butter, softened
1 cup flour
Hot pepper jelly
Mix the first 3 ingredients until they hold together in a ball--either by hand or using food processor. Chill 1/2 hour. Roll into small balls (no bigger than an inch thick.) Bake at 400 degrees for five minutes. Remove them from the oven and make depressions in the top of the puffs with the back of a spoon. Fill with hot pepper jelly. Return puffs to the oven and bake until golden. (5-7 more minutes.)

Gisele Bundchen Dishes on Joining the AOL Family and Plans for More Kids
Filed under: Celeb News & Interviews
Gisele Bundchen isn't just a supermodel -- she's also a superhero. Sort of.
In fact, the world's most sought-after supermodel and new mom has created a new animated web series called "Gisele and The Green Team," right here on AOL about a cause near and dear to her heart.
ParentDish sat down with the Brazilian beauty to find out why she developed a show about saving the environment.
ParentDish: Congrats on your new series, Gisele and The Green Team.
Gisele Bundchen: Thank you so much. I am so excited because I have been working on this for the past two years and I can't believe it is finally coming to life.
PD: What message do you want this series to send to viewers?
GB: My motto is the three R's: Reduce, reuse and recycle. The less garbage we produce the better. It was shocking to me to see how much a bottle water costs. Not only do those plastic bottles equal waste but if we don't take care of our planet, we will soon have no fresh water left to drink.
PD: You have such a busy life. With all you have going on, what made you take on a project like this?
GB: I wanted to find ways to educate kids and adults about a subject very important to me and what should be to them, saving the planet. Aside from the personal environmental projects I am working on through my website giselebundchen.com, I am also an ambassador to the UN for the environment. In addition to teaching people about how we can save our earth this program will also teach girls about empowerment and self-esteem.
PD: Why is this series targeted at only girls and not boys?
GB: I know, considering I am surrounded by the three gorgeous men in my life. I love my men!
PD: That is true, so why not gear it towards them too?
GB: I grew up in a household with five sisters and having that experience I wanted to teach girls about empowerment, confidence and self-esteem. This series centers on five female characters who are best friends/supermodels and heroes. These band together because it is their mission to educate viewers about team work and how they all need one another to help fight the evil that is destroying the planet. On this show, no one is better than the next. I want to enforce equality and how everyone who plays on a team is equal.
PD: What is it like being a cartoon character?
GB: It is funny. I wanted my character's name to be GG since that is what my stepson calls me, but we wound up naming her Gisele and she kind of looks like me and encompasses the idea of me. It was funny to see myself in the form of a cartoon.
PD: Tell me about the characters on this program.
GB: They are all different and I created them that way because I wanted to represent all of the different countries and continents that make up our world. Everything that happens in one place affects the other.
PD: Why a cartoon?
GB: It is a great way to draw in kids and then eventually get them to sit down and watch it with their parents. Each episode, which is about 2-3 minutes long, will teach viewers about ways we can conserve and be more eco friendly.
PD: At what age should parents start educating their kids about the environment and going green?
GB: This series is great for children 7 and up.
PD: Now aside from the show, the site will also offer interactive games to teach kids about being eco friendly. Tell me about that.
GB: Yes, we created an area on the site where people can share their ideas on how to save the planet, interactive games that will teach people about what we can do to be more proactive and tips on what you can do to embrace your suggestions.
PD: Can you provide our readers with some tips/suggestions on what they can do to save the planet?
GB: Take shorter showers, don't leave the water running while you are brushing your teeth, only run the dishwasher when it is full, if you wash dishes like me and have a double sink fill the other side with water to rinse off the soap, buy your produce from local farms so we can cut down on fuel use, use hydrogen light bulbs in lamps and buy a filter system instead of buying bottled water.
PD: So saving the environment has been a passion of your for years?
GB: Yes. As a matter of fact I have a flip flop line in Brazil. For the past five years we have been in business a percentage of all sales go to different environmental organizations there and have allowed us to plant over 150,000 trees in one region of Brazil.
PD: What has doing this show taught you about the environment?
GB: I was aware of a lot of things because of my devotion to the cause for so long. Because of my personal experience I was able to develop and oversee the content that was used for each episode.
PD: You mentioned before you wash dishes. I find it hard to believe the world's biggest supermodel washes dishes.
GB: Are you kidding me? I love it. Cleaning the house is actually very therapeutic for me. Becoming a parent has given me a whole new perspective on life. I can't put into words how much I love it.
PD: Speaking of being green -- what are you and Tom (her husband, pro football player Tom Brady) doing to be environmentally?
GB: We are building a home in Los Angeles and for light we bought hydrogen light bulbs because they use less electricity and last longer, we have solar panels, we are using recycled wood so we are not cutting down new trees.
PD: What will you teach your son Benjamin about being eco friendly?
GB: Our house in Costa Rica is powered by solar panels and wind. We have a water collection system since it rains anywhere between 4-5 months out of the year and I gave him toys from his older brother Jack as opposed to buying all new toys and creating more waste. Hand me downs work well in this case.
PD: Is it hard to be eco friendly when you have a baby like Benjamin?
GB: I had my first munchkin, Jack (Tom Brady's son with Bridget Moynahan), before I gave birth to Benjamin. After spending so much time with Jack I saw how he wanted to play with the stuff I was using instead of the toys we bought him. In terms of clothes, I bought Jack so many clothes and am now using them for Benjamin. Look, when I was growing up my sisters and I wore hand-me-downs and am now doing the same thing. This all goes back to my motto: Reduce, recycle and reuse. The more we buy the more we encourage the manufacturers to produce more stuff.
PD: Do Jack and Benjamin get along?
GB: Yes they love each other. They have a lot of fun together.
PD: How has life changed since you had Benjamin?
GB: I have to get my time really organized right now. I don't have a lot of free time. I am on a strict schedule so I can get everything done. Since I became a mom I make a list of my priorities and making time for family is No. 1.
PD: So what's on your list?
GB: I make time for work, my husband and my kids. Those three things are on my list every day. Those are the things that my life embraces.
PD: Your job and Tom's job tends to take you on the road a lot. How do you keep your marriage intact?
GB: It is good to have a date night. I love date night and it is a great thing I promote. We always have date night at least once a week. Benjamin goes to sleep around 7:30 pm, and if Tom is home, we always have dinner together so we have time to talk. You have to make time for what I call a couple's relationship.
PD: How old is Benjamin?
GB: He is 11 months and so delicious. I try really hard to be the best mom I can be and I also try not to be too hard on myself.
PD: What about Jack. Is it hard being a stepmom?
GB: No. He is great. I love having him in my life. He is a great kid.
PD: When I met you four years ago you said your goal was to get married and have a family. Mission accomplished?
GB: Yes. I am very grateful and very happy to have them. I am so blessed.
PD: Since you come from a big family is that the next goal -- to have one of your own?
GB: Yes, we are working on that one.

With all due respect, the following contains a possible erratum,
"GB: We are building a home in Los Angeles and for light we bought hydrogen light bulbs because they use less electricity and last longer, we have solar panels, we are using recycled wood so we are not cutting down new trees."
"Hydrogen light bulbs" is likely a mis-transcription. The likely correct statement is "Halogen light bulbs."

text: The SkyRoads wiki last edited by fisk0 on 07/31/15 06:52AM View full history OverviewSkyRoads (a polished-up remake of the game Kosmonaut) is a racing game set on ten different stages ranging from the Sun to the fictional world of Druidia. The goal of the racing game is to get to the end of the level with jumping from platform to platform without crashing, running out of oxygen, running of of fuel, or falling of of the track. The soundtrack is particularly notable, and is available for download from the developer's website.GameplayThe controls are simple, with the spacebar as jump and the left/right keys are used to move and the up/down keys to speed up or slow down. Meters at the bottom indicate the ship's speed, oxygen levels, and fuel levels. The meter to the left indicates how far players are into the level, next to a grav-o-meter that describes the planet's gravity with 100 is the lowest, giving a weightless feeling, and 1700 is the highest, allowing no jumping. The ship was very fragile, and colliding head on with anything at all but the lowest speed would cause the ship to explode.The simplicity of the game belies the various kinds of challenges the mechanics could provide. Given the variables of oxygen, fuel, gravity, and track type, many combinations were possible to test the skills of the player. Some stages were set up to stress quick completion by increasing the rate oxygen was depleted, some were extremely technical and required the player to carefully manage resources by jumping on track pieces that would add more fuel and oxygen, and some had the player always on acceleration tracks which meant quick reflexes and exact timing were necessary for success.The demo and full versions of both games are now available for download as freeware from the developer's website.

@oddgriffin, im not always sure the exception dsi occured is always by a bad sd card. i just bought a new sandisk 2gb sd card, but i still get the error on neogamma when trying to play backups.
I formatted an old HDD to use with my wii for games (backups) can I put the apps onto that? if so, how do I install them?
I just tried off the SD card again and got read error -116
This is the same SD card I used to mod the wii with no issues. I also put a movie on it to watch on the wii (re-formatted before trying to do Step 3 again)
I think I would like to keep my SD available to mod another wii and to watch movies on the wii.
@oddgriffin, im not always sure the exception dsi occured is always by a bad sd card. i just bought a new sandisk 2gb sd card, but i still get the error on neogamma when trying to play backups.
Indeed, that is why my post suggested several examples of issues with the sd card. One of which was corrupted data and/or an interruption of reading/writing the data for any particular reason.
This can also happen with the hard drive if it is using it to read the configuration files from rather than the sd card.
Sometimes a simple reboot, is all that is necessary to break through the barrier, other times data needs to be found or replaced. In worse examples hardware needs replaced.
I also believe HBB is more likely to give this error since it is reading/writing data that is being transferred via the internet. Rather than files created by the console itself or transferred from the pc.
so wat ur suggesting is that there may be something wrong with the wii itself? if so, wat needs to be replaced because i get this error on neogamma when trying to play backups
Is your homebrew/ loader configuration files on the sd card? If it is the DSI error, there are corrupted files. Likely to be in the neogamma configuration file.
Are you loading via, homebrew channel, a channel, or a loader that is still using Homebrew's .dol file. There can be other issues with variations of loader settings that can cause this.
Not likely to be a hardware issue unless the DSI error is happening with other things. Usually they stop reading with hardly any sign of problems, but you bought a new sd card and it is reading it for other thing just fine, correct?
corrrect. its a new sd card, and only neogamma and uloader arent working. i am loading thro hombrew channel. but, there is 1 game that works and that is wii sports resorts. with the other games, when i use uloader, i get dvd error 1. ill look for a new download of both neogamma and uloader and try them and see what happens. thx
sorry about that. so i tried a new neogamma, but i still got the dsi exception. any other ideas i could try? thx for the help so far tho

- Address: 2200 N Cannon Drive, Lincoln Park
- Hours: Open daily. Zoo open 10am - 5pm (until 4:30pm Nov - Mar)
- Admission: Free
Lincoln Park & Zoo
This neighborhood gets its name from Chicago's largest park. Its 1,200 acres (485 hectares) stretch for 6 miles (10 kilometers), from North Avenue north to Diversey Parkway, where it narrows along the lake and continues until the end of Lake Shore Drive. Lincoln Park & Zoo has many lakes, trails and paths and even a lily pool called Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool, providing visitors with a unique architectural landscape. Cross-country skiing in the winter and sunbathing in warmer months are just two of the activities Chicagoans enjoy here.
Most of Lincoln Park's pleasures are natural, though one of its joys is sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens' Standing Lincoln, which shows the 16th president deep in contemplation right before he delivers a great speech. The statue stands in its own garden east of the Chicago History Museum. From a little dock in front of pretty Café Brauer, a 1908 Prairie School architectural creation, you can rent two-person paddle-boats and cruise the South Pond, south of the zoo.
One of the park's main highlights is the free Lincoln Park Zoo, one of Chicago's most popular attractions. Exhibits include the Regenstein African Journey, where you can get surprisingly close to animals who swim, hop, and crawl in remarkably lifelike environments. Over at Farm-in-the-Zoo, you can see a full range of barnyard animals in a faux farm setting just south of the zoo.
Practical Info
Lincoln Park & Zoo is easily accessible by both buses and El trains. Parking is limited, so public transportation is your best option. If you want to want to picnic in the park, you can pick up foodstuffs from the markets on Clark Street and Diversey Parkway.
You can easily reach the zoo from most parts of the park; there are entrances on all sides. The Gateway Pavilion is the main entrance, and is where to go to pick up a free map that provides times and locations for animal feedings, training demonstrations, and free talks about various animals by zookeepers.

Soul on Ice
Laurel/Dell, 1992 - 192 pages
The now-classic memoir that shocked, outraged, and ultimately changed the way America looked at the civil rights movement and the black experience.
By turns shocking and lyrical, unblinking and raw, the searingly honest memoirs of Eldridge Cleaver are a testament to his unique place in American history. Cleaver writes in Soul on Ice, "I'm perfectly aware that I'm in prison, that I'm a Negro, that I've been a rapist, and that I have a Higher Uneducation." What Cleaver shows us, on the pages of this now classic autobiography, is how much he was a man.

analysisBy Richard Poplak
The DA insisted on marching through Johannesburg to deliver a jobs proposal to the ANC at their Luthuli House headquarters. What did you think was going to happen?
"In modern Athens," the philosopher Michel de Certeu once noted, "the vehicles of mass transportation are called metaphorai. To go to work or to come home, one takes a 'metaphor'".
Wednesday morning in Johannesburg was, as usual, was jammed with metaphors - in this case, the busses that brought in Democratic Alliance supporters and ANC supporters, who gathered on either side of the central business district.
Viva Helen Zille viva, yelled one half of the city. Viva President Zuma viva, yelled the other.
The meaning of the humming metaphors that lined Miriam Makeba was easy to decipher: in a divided city, which was built to maintain divisions, the buses were intended to make those divisions plain.
The DA, led by Helen Zille, were here to deliver a jobs proposal to the ANC, who were encamped to protect the integrity of the revolutionary house by those who hoped to defile it.
Before the first Molotov cocktail had been thrown, before the first rubber bullet had been fired, I stood outside Luthuli House ...

COLUMBIA — One of the first things Brian Richardson discussed with his new coach was confidence, and how it withered for Richardson near the end of last season. The memories of that frustrating experience were fresh for Richardson when he met with Frank Martin last spring after South Carolina hired Martin to replace Darrin Horn as its men's basketball coach.
Richardson, a junior guard, said that what happened to him during the disastrous home stretch of USC's 2011-12 season was "pretty simple."
"I just wasn't playing and just lost confidence and stopped working hard," he said. "I just stopped working hard on my game."
Last season was a miserable time to be around USC basketball. The Gamecocks went 10-21 and lost 13 of their final 15 games. After February rolled around, Richardson played in just seven of the final 11 games. He totaled 44 minutes and 13 points in those seven games.
Richardson's final season statistics — two starts, 3.2 points per game, 12.3 minutes — were a sharp drop from his freshman year, when he started 24 games and averaged 5.9 points in 19.4 minutes.
Richardson willingly accepts some of the blame for his sluggish finish. But while he essentially mailed in his season, he was frustrated with having his role so narrowly defined as a perimeter shooter. He made 33.6 percent of his 3-pointers as a freshman, but just 23.3 last season (14 of 60).
"I did feel like I was kind of pigeonholed," he said. "I felt like I was just sitting, just waiting for the ball or waiting for somebody to penetrate and kick it out to me, to shoot the ball. I feel like I'm doing a lot more this year than I did last year."
Richardson is averaging 8.5 points and 19.8 minutes, mostly as a reserve, while shooting 40.8 percent on 3s (29 of 71). Considering how little he contributed last season, he is one of the biggest surprises of USC's season, which peaked with Saturday's 75-54 win over Arkansas. Richardson on Saturday shot 8 of 13, 3 of 5 on 3s, and led USC with 20 points, tying a career high set earlier this month in a loss at Mississippi State.
While Saturday's blowout and Richardson's season have been eye openers, USC would stun everybody tonight if it won at fourth-ranked Florida. Since the Gamecocks beat No. 1 Kentucky in January 2010, they are 1-15 against ranked teams, with a nine-game losing streak. Since the start of the 2006-07 season, USC is 4-32 against ranked opponents.
Just as the Arkansas win doesn't necessarily mean Martin's first season will finish with a flourish, Martin is still learning how to maintain Richardson's confidence at a time when it was most fragile last year. The most important thing Martin wanted to see from Richardson this season? Versatility. His jump shot might not fall every night, but he could contribute by driving to the basket and drawing fouls, or by using his 6-4 length to disrupt on defense.
"My battle with him the whole time has been to find a way to get him to feel good about himself," Martin said. "What I've tried to do with him is make him understand that he can't simplify who he is to just shooting the basketball. I think he's understanding that."
Richardson's 20 points in USC's Southeastern Conference opener against Mississippi State capped a six-game run in which he averaged 15 points. Then he scored zero, zero, seven and zero points in the next four games while playing 14, two, 20 and three minutes.
Richardson weathered the slump by remembering how his parents, Tammy and Maurice Richardson, told him often last season that he couldn't let his minutes affect his outlook. "Just keep working hard and everything will take care of itself," he recalled them telling him.
Now, he takes a basic approach to buoying his confidence: "I try not to think about last year," he said. "I know around this time last year, I was down."
Instead, he applies himself to the parts of his game that Martin is determined to reveal this year.
"I knew I could defend," Richardson said. "I just have to believe that I can defend. I give a lot of problems to shorter guards. I can use my length over shorter guards or faster guards. I try to use that to my advantage, and just give energy off that if I'm having a bad shooting night."

Ruth Bell Graham from Sitting by My Laughing Fire
Those were no ordinary sheep*
no common flocks,
huddled in sleep
among the fields,
the layered rocks,
near Bethlehem
That Night;
but those
selected for the Temple sacrifice:
theirs to atone
for sins
they had not done.
How right
the angels should appear
to them
That Night.
Those were no usual shepherds
but outcast shepherds
whose unusual care
of special sheep
made it impossible to keep
Rabbinic law,
which therefore banned them.
How right
the angels should appear
to them
That night.
*Luke 2 (see Alfred Edersheim, Jesus the Messiah)

"Beneath the surface, set amidst the claustrophobic yet beautiful and sweeping ocean-scapes, a discovery is made that will reveal a secret mythology. Full of suspense and horror, THE WAKE is an underwater sci-fi epic like none other."
Hot on the heels of the announcement that he will be writing a brand new Superman book with legendary artist Jim Lee, best selling author and current writer for DC's Batman, Scott Snyder will be taking on yet another series. This time from DC's Vertigo imprint. The American Vampire writer will team up with artist Sean Murphy on a limited series entitled "The Wake".
Vertigo caught up with Snyder ahead of his appearances at NYCC this year and he had the following to say about "The Wake", which is from Vertigo Comics and out in 2013!
"This is a story Sean and I have actually been developing together for more than a year, a big, twisted, sprawling science fiction and horror epic, all of which begins with a single, terrifying discovery at the bottom of the ocean. It's one of the most ambitious stories I've ever done, and there's no one I'd rather be creating it with than Sean Murphy. Sean's a great friend and we had a blast together on AMERICAN VAMPIRE: Survival of the Fittest; luckily, he's also one of the industry's brightest new stars, someone with unrivaled abilities as a world-builder—every scene he draws is so fully realized, so richly imagined, it's hugely inspiring working with him, and I'm grateful to him for signing on to be my partner at the end of the world, here."

'Drink-driving was cry for help'
Posted: February 04, 2013|
A WELSH Assembly Member who was caught drink driving in October has called her actions a "cry for help."
South Wales West Plaid Cymru AM Bethan Jenkins was stopped by police after driving erratically at 1.30am on October 14 last year. She said: "It was just some sort of cry for help. That was what it was more than anything."
Afterwards she disclosed she had diagnosed herself with depression once she had read about the condition online.
She said: "I cried one day. I looked at a website and I thought, 'Oh my gosh, that's me'."
Before this, she had attended a number of counselling sessions but had not properly come to terms with her depression.
A car crash on the Rhigos mountain in 2005 had also left her with post-traumatic stress disorder. This caused a series of panic attacks, which were treated at the time, but still occur occasionally.
The Neath-based AM was banned from getting behind the wheel for 20 months in December.
Ms Jenkins, who was suspended from the Plaid Group following the incident, has now been welcomed back to the party after coming to terms with her condition. She said she now plans to campaign on mental health awareness.
She also advised people who may be suffering from depression to seek help: "You don't want to leave it too late so that you feel you're out of control."
