PSYCHOTHERAPY: Therapy is a confidential and collaborative process of search and discovery that is uniquely tailored to meet your needs. My therapeutic approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory with a relational emphasis. I strive to create a warm and interactive environment where you can feel comfortable, understood, and hopeful. The courage and honesty that psychotherapy requires can be tough work! However, the benefits of psychotherapy can be substantial in terms of both temporary relief and more enduring change. Psychotherapy often leads to significant reductions in feelings of distress, solutions to specific problems, and to healthier relationships.
ASSESSMENT: I have extensive training and experience conducting a variety of comprehensive psychological, neuropsychological, cognitive, and substance abuse evaluations. My thorough approach to assessment provides a well-integrated psychological formulation that is easily understood by professionals and lay persons alike.
Psychological assessment is conducted with children, adolescents, and adults to address issues that include, but are not limited to: •Personality •Diagnostic Clarification •Intelligence •Achievement •Academically Gifted •Learning Disorders •Pervasive Developmental Disorders (e.g., Autism) •ADD/ADHD

April 8, 2008
NORTHRIDGE, Calif. - Northridge (13-14, 3-3) continued their season-long hit parade, but this time it wasn't enough to overcome defensive lapses and a potent UC Santa Barbara (22-9, 5-1) offense. The Matadors posted a four-run fourth and scored in the eighth to come within one, but went down in order in the ninth to end the comeback bid.
The Matadors got off to another rocky start in the first surrendering two runs after Gaucho leadoff man Brian Gump notched a single and stole second. Gump later scored on a Chris Fox ground out, and Eric Oliver would come around after back-to-back singles.
In the fourth, The gauchos expanded their lead, putting two men on for Fox, who doubled into the left-center field gap for a pair of RBI. Gump scored on a poor throw from Northridge catcher John Parham that went into left field.
The matadors were shut out through the first five innings and were held to just two hits and three baserunners in that span. They had threatened in the first, getting their first two hitters, TS Reed and Billy Swanson, aboard by singles, but then Gaucho starter Mike Martin settled down and retired the next 11 men he faced.
Martin did not last the fifth, though. After getting leadoff man Drew Muren swinging, three of the following four Northirdge hitters registered base knocks. The other, Justin DeMarco, sacrificed himself by bunting over C.J. Belanger. Parham walked to load the bases, setting the table for Richard Cates.
Cates did what he'd done all year: make something happen. He drove a single into right field that scored Reed and Swanson, upping his season RBI total to 30. The hit chases Martin and pinch hitter Chris Hannick greeted reliever Kyle Brown with a RBI single back through the box, narrowing the Gaucho lead to one.
The Gauchos doubled their advantage in the sixth when Gump tripled and was singled home by Fox.
Edwin Quirarte was called upon to extinguish a vulnerable situation in the eighth. Inheriting runners on first and second with no outs, Quirarte maneuvered through without allowing a runner to score, collecting a ground out, strike out, and another ground out to keep the Matadors within one.
Northridge got one back in the eighth. After Ryan Pineda singled to lead the inning off, he moved around on another Belanger knock and eventually scored on Reed's second RBI, a grounder that went as a fielder's choice.
Quirarte sat the Gauchos down in order in the ninth to give his offense a shot, but Jason Roenicke returned the favor, sitting the Matadors down 1-2-3 to nail down the 6-5 Gaucho win.
Cates became the fastest Matador in terms of games to reach 30 RBI in the last five seasons.
Eric Billings was charged with the loss and ran his record to 1-1.
Northridge gets back to Big West play Friday when they trek to Cal State Fullerton for the continuation of a long-standing historical series. The Titans have seen the better end of late and put a 13-game hit streak vs. the Titans on the line. First pitch Friday is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Bethlehem, Pa., March 27, 2013—Ellen Greenberg, a local 40-year-old writer of children's books, experienced a benign brain tumor. After surgery in 2010, she had to resign from teaching, and regain her skills with speech, reading, and writing. Because of her hard work and creativity, she has now written and published several children's books: Inspector Spencer Solves the Curious Case of Danger Mouse and Inspector Spencer Solves the Case of the Stolen Piano available at Moravian Book Shop and amazon.com, as well as at the Bethlehem Area Public Library.
When she needed recently to hire a new illustrator for her third book, Inspector Spencer Finds the Purrfect Solution, she wrote to five area college art departments, seeking a student interested in illustrating several of her latest works, which she hopes will be published soon.
Only Moravian College students replied to her request. Five students from Moravian College Art Department expressed interest and one of these, Caitlin Campbell '13, was chosen to be the next illustrator. Ellen is very delighted with her charming and quirky illustrations. She and her parents, Sandra and Normal Wruble of Hanover Township, are very grateful to Moravian's students for their prompt, professional, and caring efforts.
The multitalented Campbell will graduate from Moravian this spring with a B.A. in environmental communication with minors in art and coastal studies. One of her goals is to write and illustrate books and education material that help connect kids with nature. She is working on an Honors Project at Moravian called the Barnegat Bay Coastal Explorer Program. As for her goals after graduation, she notes on her personal website, "I am currently pursuing a career in interpretation or environmental education. But I am also interested in graphic design, interpretive product design, exhibit design, writing, or anything else that will challenge me, make me happy, and have a positive impact." Moravian College is a private, coeducational, selective liberal arts college located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Tracing its founding to 1742, it is recognized as America's sixth-oldest college. Moravian partners with students to build a strong foundation for their future. Visit the College's Web site at www.moravian.edu.

Video:Do's and Don'ts of Shoulder-Length Hair and Square Faceswith Laura Kiorkis
Like all face shapes, square faces look best with particular hairstyles. Here are some tips for creating the perfect hairstyle for your square face.See Transcript
Transcript:Do's and Don'ts of Shoulder-Length Hair and Square FacesHi! I'm Laura Kiorkis, owner of Gemini of Chicago Hair Salon in Peoria, Arizona. Today, I'm going to talk to you about the do's and don'ts for shoulder-length hair on square faces.
Measure to Find Out if You Have a Square FaceGina is a great example of a square face shape. We've determined her face shape by measuring with a tape measure and figuring that the width at the forehead is the same as the width at the jaw line. The most flattering shape in Gina's haircut is going to be to create softness around the jaw line and minimal height at the crown, so as not to intensify the squareness of the face and to create some volume at the sides. We've sectioned the hair into eight sections to achieve proper cutting and control.
Cut Layers Into Shoulder-Length HairWe're going to start in the back two sections and establish the length. Once we've established the length, we'll bring down the next two back sections and establish the length further. You'll want to cut medium to short layers in the crown, gradually getting longer towards the face. After you've cut the layers in the back crown area, you'll want to incorporate the sides by making them travel to the back area behind the ear in the previous cut section.
Style Bangs Around Square FaceYou'll then want to comb all the hair forward and frame the face by point-cutting the hair around here, starting at the part line. When cutting bangs for a square face shape, you want to section the hair from temple to temple an inch behind the hairline in a half moon shape. To create the most flattering hairstyle for a square face shape, we're going to create softness throughout the look by doing a classic blowout.
Products to Use in Shoulder-Length HairThe products we're going to use to create the softness in Gina's hairstyle are volumizing root lifter for the sides of the hair, and bodifying mousse throughout to create shape and wave during the blowout. We'll also use a one inch round brush for styling. While we are blow drying the hair, we will create bend, polish, and shine. We'll also use a one inch round brush to create a lot of curl at the ends, while also polishing and smoothing the hair for a nice balanced blowout.
Finish Hairstyle for Square FaceFor styling, you'll want to spray in a root lifter for a little bit of volume and put in a mousse for body and softness throughout the ends. Using a small round brush, you'll go section by section, blow drying the hair, adding a lot of curl and body while you polish that hair. You'll twist your brush out to maintain all the curl you've put in to create a soft look on a square face shape. You'll want to make sure that you finish the style with the flexible hold hairspray to maintain the shine and the body of the look throughout the day. These are your top do's and don'ts for shoulder length hair on a square faced shape.

text: University Libraries About the Libraries Events and Awards Promotion and Tenure Recognition 2011 Honorees Margaret Savoca Dr Margaret Savoca Associate Professor of Nutrition Whatever it takes : Geoffrey Canada's quest to change Harlem and America by Paul Tough Paul Tough's book is a profile of Mr. Canada's life and work as founder of Harlem's Children Zone. Within this 97 block "zone", his mission is to eliminate educational disparities experienced by the children who live within its borders. I read this book in the summer of 2009 as I was continuing my journey to understand why young African-American men develop high blood pressure earlier than any other group and to find ways to help them prevent the disease. What has stayed with me is not Canada's remarkable personal story filled with opportunities and setbacks but the two phase approach to his work. First, he sought to understand why poverty made it difficult for children to learn and second, armed with this awareness, to build a comprehensive program that went well beyond the basics of reading and writing. He seeks to provide discipline, social support, and enrichment to these children and their parents through program that begin before birth. Canada has done this by creating a community of caring for children within the larger community. This gave me the realization that my work in the end will probably not be just about providing guidance about diet or physical activity but rather it will be about building a place where young African-American men can learn to care about themselves and be empowered to live a life that will preserve their health.

In a nonvolatile memory, the select gates (144S) are formed from one conductive layer (e.g. polysilicon or polyside), and the wordlines (144) interconnecting the select gates are made from a different conductive layer (e.g. metal). The wordlines overlie an dielectric (302, 304, 310) formed over control gate lines (134). Each control gate line provides control gates for one column of the memory cells. The adjacent control gate lines for the adjacent memory columns are spaced from each other. The dielectric thickness can be controlled to reduce the capacitance between the wordlines and the control gates. In some embodiments, the floating gates (120) are fabricated in a self-aligned manner using an isotropic etch of the floating gate layer.
1. An integrated circuit comprising:
a semiconductor substrate comprising a plurality of source/drain regions of nonvolatile memory cells and a plurality of channel regions of the nonvolatile memory cells;
a plurality of first conductive gates of the nonvolatile memory cells, the first conductive gate of each memory cell overlying the memory cell's channel region;
a plurality of conductive floating gates of the memory cells, each memory cell comprising two floating gates positioned over the memory cell's channel region on opposite sides of the memory cell's first conductive gate;
a plurality of conductive gate lines providing second conductive gates for the memory cells, each memory cell having two second conductive gates overlying the memory cell's respective two floating gates and positioned on said respective opposite sides of the memory cell's first conductive gate, the first conductive gate's top surface being higher than the memory cell's second conductive gates;
a dielectric overlying the floating gates and the second conductive gates and having a top surface which is higher than the first conductive gates, wherein for each memory cell, the dielectric has a contact opening for contacting the memory cell's first conductive gate, the contact opening overlying the memory cell's first conductive gate and at least one of the memory cell's second conductive gates, the contact opening having a bottom surface which extends laterally beyond the memory cell's first conductive gate over a top of the at least one of the second conductive gates, the contact opening's bottom surface being separated from the memory cell's second conductive gates by the dielectric;

The present application is a division of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/797,972 filed on Mar. 10, 2004 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,148,104, incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates to integrated circuits, and more particularly to nonvolatile memories.
Steering gates 134 are formed from the second polysilicon layer and are insulated from the floating gates. Each steering gate extends in the Y direction between two columns of memory cells 110 and overlies two adjacent columns of floating gates 120. Bitlines 138 are diffusion regions in substrate 124. Each bitline 138 runs in the Y direction between two adjacent columns of floating gates 120. In each row, a bitline 138 provides two source/drain regions to respective two adjacent memory cells 110.
Wordlines 144, formed from the third polysilicon layer, overlie the steering gates and extend in the X direction. Wordlines 144 may also be formed from polycide. The wordline layer also provides select gates 144S (
Metal strap lines (not shown) reduce the resistance of the polysilicon elements and diffusion elements of the array.
The memory operates as follows. Each cell 110 can be represented as having two floating gate transistors 110L, 110R (
As noted above, floating gates 120 are made from the first polysilicon layer, steering gates 134 are made from the second polysilicon layer, and wordlines 144 are made from the third polysilicon layer or a polycide layer which also provides the select gates 144S. Alternative fabrication techniques are desirable.
This section summarizes some features of the invention. Other features are described in the subsequent sections. The invention is defined by the appended claims which are incorporated into this section by reference.
In some embodiments of the present invention, select gates 144S are formed from a different layer than wordlines 144. In some embodiments, this fabrication method provides additional control over the spacing between the wordlines 144 and steering gates 134. Increased spacing is desirable to reduce the parasitic capacitance between the wordlines and the steering gates.
In some embodiments, select gates 144S are formed before floating gates 120 and before steering gates 134 (the steering gates will also be called "control gates" herein). The control gates are provided by conductive control gate lines. Each control gate line provides control gates for one column of the memory cells. The adjacent control gate lines for the adjacent columns are spaced from each other. See
In addition, if the select gates 144S are formed before the floating gates, the gate dielectric for floating gates 120 can be the same layer as the dielectric formed on the select gate sidewalls to insulate the select gates from the floating and control gates. See U.S. patent applications Ser. No. 10/440,005 filed May 16, 2003 and Ser. No. 10/631,452 filed Jul. 30, 2003, both incorporated herein by reference.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the floating gates are fabricated in a self-aligned manner using an isotropic etch of the floating gate layer.
Other features and advantages of the invention are described below. The invention is defined by the appended claims.
The embodiments described in this section illustrate but do not limit the invention. The invention is not limited to particular materials, process steps, or dimensions. The invention is defined by the appended claims.
The circuit diagram of
The invention is not limited to STI. For example, the oxide 130 structure of
In each memory cell, a channel region in the active area of substrate 124 extends between the two adjacent bitlines. The channel region includes two channel areas underlying two respective floating gates 120 and a channel area underlying the select gate 144S of the cell.
In this embodiment, control gates 134 are doped polysilicon, but polycides and other conductive materials can also be used.
Conductive select gates 144S are insulated from substrate 124 by dielectric 330. In this embodiment, select gates 144S are doped polysilicon, but they may be made of polycides or other conductive materials. Each select gate 144S may overlap the adjacent STI trenches 130TR (
The term "control gate" may apply to a control gate of a single memory cell or to a line 134 running through the array.
Exemplary operating voltages are shown in Table 1 below. The voltages are in volts. The reading and programming operations are performed as in the memory of
The programming can also be done by Fowler-Nordheim tunneling.
In one embodiment, the memory is fabricated as follows. The memory array is fabricated in a doped region of type P-formed in monocrystalline silicon substrate 124. This region can be isolated by P-N junctions (not shown). See e.g. U.S. Pat. No. 6,355,524 issued Mar. 12, 2002 to H. T. Tuan et al. and incorporated herein by reference.
STI trenches 130TR can be formed, for example, by a process described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/678,317 US filed Oct. 3, 2003 by Yi Ding and incorporated herein by reference. More particularly, as shown in
Silicon nitride 420 is deposited on oxide 410. In one embodiment, the thickness of nitride 420 is in the range of 2000 Å to 2200 Å. Nitride 420 is patterned photolithographically, using a photoresist mask (not shown), to define trenches 130TR and active areas 312. Oxide 410 and substrate 124 are etched through the openings in nitride 420. Trenches 130TR ("STI trenches") are formed as a result. An exemplary depth of trenches 130TR is 0.2 μm, measured from the top surface of the substrate 124. Other depths are possible.
Nitride 420 is subjected to a wet etch to recess the vertical edges of the nitride layer away from trenches 130TR. See
A thin layer 130.1 of silicon dioxide is thermally grown on the exposed silicon surfaces to round the edges of trenches 130TR and passivate the trench surfaces. Silicon dioxide 130.2 (
In some of the figures, the layers 130.1, 130.2 are shown as a single layer 130. This dielectric 130 will be referred to as STI dielectric or field dielectric.
The array area is masked with photoresist (not shown), and oxide 130 is etched to lower the oxide level in the periphery. See
The photoresist is removed. Nitride 420 is removed selectively to oxide 130. This can be done by a wet etch (e.g. with phosphoric acid). See
Silicon dioxide 330 is thermally grown on the exposed areas of substrate 124 to provide gate dielectric for the select gates of the memory array and for the peripheral transistors. The peripheral transistors are used to form sense amplifiers, address decoders, memory I/O buffers, drivers for various memory elements (e.g. bitlines, wordlines, control gates), and possibly other circuitry needed to access the memory array. See e.g. the aforementioned U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,420,234 and 6,266,278. An exemplary thickness of oxide 330 in the array area is 120 Å. Generally, the oxide thickness depends on the maximum voltage that the oxide 330 is designed to sustain during the memory operation.
In the example shown in
Thus, oxide 330 in the array area and oxide 330 in the high voltage peripheral area 812H is formed simultaneously in these two oxidation steps. The oxide 330 in area 812L and the oxide 330 in the array area and area 812H are not formed simultaneously because the oxide 330 in area 812L is formed in the second oxidation step. See U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/440,508 filed May 16, 2003 by Yi Ding and incorporated herein by reference.
Intrinsic polysilicon 144.1 (
Silicon dioxide 902 is deposited on polysilicon 144.1 to an exemplary thickness of 1200-1500 Å by CVD (TEOS) or some other process.
A photoresist mask 904 is formed over the periphery. Oxide 902 is etched away in the array area, and polysilicon 144.1 is doped N+ by ion implantation. See
Polysilicon 144.1 is subjected to a timed dry anisotropic etch to lower its top surface below the top surface of dielectric 130 in the array area. See
Oxide 130 is etched selectively to polysilicon 144.1 (
The periphery is protected by resist 904, and remains as in
As seen in
Resist 904 is removed. Polysilicon layer 144.2 (
Polysilicon layers 144.1, 144.2 are shown as a single layer 144S in the array area in some of the drawings.
A hard mask for an etch of polysilicon layers 144.1, 144.2 is formed in two steps. First, silicon nitride layer 1310 is deposited and patterned photolithographically to form the same pattern in the array area as was used to define active areas 312 (
Alternatively, nitride 1310 can be removed from the periphery when the nitride 1310 is patterned in the array area. Nitride 1410 will also be removed from the periphery during the etch that forms the nitride spacers in the array area. The resulting peripheral cross section for this case is shown in
An anisotropic etch of polysilicon 144S (
If the periphery was as in
Advantageously, the array structure is essentially self-aligned at this stage. The positions of trenches 130TR, oxide 130 and polysilicon 144S does not depend on photolithographic alignment except for the alignment of the mask used to pattern the nitride 1310 with respect to the mask used to pattern the trenches 130TR (
Nitride layers 1310, 1410 are removed from the wafer (by a wet H3PO4 etch for example). Silicon nitride 1610 (
Layers 1610, 1620 are patterned photolithographically using a photoresist layer (not shown) to form a number of strips running through the array in the Y direction over the future positions of select gates 144S. See
The resist used to pattern the layers 1610, 1620 can be removed at this stage, or can be left in the structure for the etch of polysilicon 144S. Polysilicon 144S is etched anisotropically to form the select gates 144S. The etch is selective to SION 1620 and nitride 1610, or at least to the resist if the resist is present. See
If the resist was present during the polysilicon etch, the resist is removed. The wafer is oxidized (in a furnace or by rapid thermal oxidation (RTO)) to grow silicon dioxide 314 (
The peripheral area is covered by oxide 902 (
Floating gate polysilicon 120 (
In some 0.18 μm minimum line width embodiments, D1 is 0.16-0.2 μ, D2 is 0.58 μm, and Th1 is at least 0.08 μm but less than 0.29 μm.
In other embodiments, the polysilicon surface is planar over the whole wafer due to a conformal deposition to a thickness larger than half the distance D2 and larger than half the distance D1. See U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/440,508 filed May 16, 2003 by Yi Ding and incorporated herein by reference.
In other embodiments, the polysilicon 120 is not planar even in the areas between select gates 144S. For example, polysilicon 120 can have protrusions over STI oxide regions 130.
Polysilicon 120 is etched without a mask. In the embodiment of
Anisotropic etches can also be used, especially if polysilicon 120 is initially planar throughout the wafer. If the polysilicon is not planar, it can be planarized before the anisotropic etch.
An optional etch of oxide 130 lowers the top surface of oxide 130 to a level below the top surface of polysilicon 120 (
As noted above in connection with
The wafer is cleaned for subsequent processing. The cleaning step removes any oxide 1830 (
Insulating layer 324 (
As shown in
In the embodiment of
Polysilicon 134 is etched without a mask selectively to oxide 2210. See
The polysilicon etch removes polysilicon 134 from the periphery (
Dielectric 302 is deposited into cavities 2310 to protect the polysilicon 134 (the future control gates) near the select gates 144S and nitride features 1610. In one embodiment, this material is silicon nitride. As shown in
Nitride 302 is etched to expose oxide 2210. See
The periphery is covered by photoresist (not shown). Oxide 2210 is removed (by a wet etch for example). See
Polysilicon 134 is etched anisotropically in the array area with nitride 302 as a mask. The polysilicon etch is selective to silicon dioxide, so the etch stops on ONO 324. The resulting structure is shown in
The periphery continues to be covered by the resist (not shown) deposited before the etch of oxide 2210, and the periphery thus remains as in
ONO 324 and polysilicon 120 are etched with nitride 302 as a mask to pattern the floating gates. Layers 324, 120 are completely removed from the areas not covered by nitride 302. See
Then bitlines 138 are created by a "self-aligned source" technique. More particularly, as the peripheral area continues to be masked with the resist (not shown), a silicon dioxide etch selective to silicon nitride removes the exposed oxide 130 from trenches 130TR. See
The resist is removed from over the periphery. The periphery remains as in
The structure is oxidized to grow a silicon dioxide layer 2910 (
The array is covered with photoresist (not shown). ONO 324 and oxide 902 (
Silicon nitride spacers 304 (
The remaining processing is conventional. In one example, interlevel dielectric 310 is formed over the structure, to an exemplary thickness of 2000-5000 Å. Contact openings are etched in dielectric 310 and nitride 304 to select gates 144S, control gates 134, peripheral transistor gates 144.1 (i.e. to silicide 144L), and source/drain regions 3008 (i.e. to silicide 3008L). The contact openings are filled with metal 350, then metal 144 is deposited and patterned to form the wordlines and perhaps other features.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. The invention is not limited to the dimensions, materials or voltages shown, or to STI, silicidation, or other processes. Other techniques can be used to pattern the floating and control gates. See for example U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/393,202 filed by Yi Ding on Mar. 19, 2003, and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/631,941 filed by Yi Ding on Jul. 30, 2003, both incorporated herein by reference. In

If you read the article, it quotes Ms. James; "This case is about football. Take football out of the equation." I believe she is mis-quoted because her quote only make sense if it says "This case is NOT about football." I
And Bammers gave Cam Newton benefit of the doubt.........that collective, childish hissy fit went right up until the NCAA failed to validate their wet dreams of the total demise of the AU program. Spare me the holier than thou garbage.
I went to watch AU play UAB in a baseball game at the Hoover Met once and there were fans yelling "Roll Tide".......at a UAB game. I guess is just a version of the old "If'n Auburn was playin tha Russians, I have to pull fer the Russians" mentality.
Dan Wheldon died just last year and while I don't know statistics, I would guess that Indy cars are just as safe or safer than cup cars. However, his head hitting a metal pole had nothing to do with the car so there's no such thing as absolute safety. Regardless, you basically made my point better than I did because I DO spend money at the Barber track but no longer on NASCAR.
NASCAR should go back to like it was in the 70's where the cars were actually based upon a production vehicle. I remember a race where Bobby Allison won without a back bumper...which was a chrome piece just like the production Malibu. If a manufacturer doesn't have a rear drive platform, then they don't race. The generic rules for all cars makes the series boring. Take it back to where a Ford was a real Ford, Chevy was a real Chevy and they might win back fans like me, who attented every Talladega race for years until they turned it into staged theatre like wrestling.
Brings to mind the story about the crew re-arranging the deck furniture while the Titanic was sinking......
Were you there?
A lot of UA fan's hobby seems to be posting about what goes on at AU. I would agree that BOTH fan bases need a new hobby.......myself not excluded.
Unless you were a witness to the actual incident, you are making assumptions as to what happened. Fact 1) Girl was shot. Fact 2) 3 Teenagers charges as adults with 1st degree robbery. Fact 3) Shooter has not been charged at this time. Unless you have additional facts of the case, why are you so adamant that she is an innocent victim?
The only thing that is laughable is the idea that Saban/UA has some magical control of teenagers/20 something young men. Anyone who has raised a teenager knows it tought to keep tabs on 1 kid much less 85+. I'm sure coach Saban is just as worried as any other coach when it comes to kids behavior.
Has anyone seen a pic? Did it break into chunks (like there's 1 big piece and a few smaller ones) or does it shatter into similar size, small pieces like tempered glass (car window)? Really just curious.
One has to be real careful these days with "buy American" when it comes to vehicles. GM assembles in Canada, Ford assembles in Mexico and I believe Ram truck engines are assembled in Mexico. So is buying a Ford that is assembled in Mexico more patriotic than buying a Toyota that is assembled in USA. One might say that the profits are going back to Toyota but don't most people worry more about jobs? I find that most "buy American" is more about supporting labor unions than patriotism. This is a serious question. Which is better for America; buying a Mercedes built in Vance or a Ford built in Mexico or a GM built in Canada? Where the profits go or the jobs?
Just as in the Martin case, many "opinions", but few facts. What is known: 1) Girl was shot. 2) 3 companion boys arrested. 3) Shooter not currently charged. So unless one was a witness to the incident, it's pure speculation. Having lived with a current generation teenager, regardless of how upstanding a person they appear to be or the quality of the family the come from, teenagers often make extremely bad choices. "Nothing good happens after midnight." is a phrase that rings true more often than not.
You don't need a superstar QB to win (but certainly helps). What's needed this year is solid QB play with few mistakes. Give me Pat Nix type QB play and a stout defense and AU will give anyone fits.
Kurt was as mean as they come on the field but was always know as a good guy off of it. At the end of the day, all we really leave behind is how we are remembered.......being remembered mainly as "A good man." is about as good as it gets. RIP Kurt.
I love motorcycles but won't ride one because I have known too many people who were killed or seriously hurt riding. They are not inherently dangerous as a machine but people on the road are simply too distracted these days to trust your life. That being said, let's be honest, I'd bet most any 51 year old man who had the opportunity to take a pretty 25 year old for a ride on his bike would likely do the same. Doesn't make it right or wrong but human beings are creatures of many faults.
Could not agree more. After the hubbub over Shoal Creek in 1990 regarding lack of black membership, the club rolled-over and everyone went about their business again. What actually changes when these private institutions are bullied into changing their policies? Nothing. Does the world become a better place? Of course not. The special interest crowd gets to pat itself on the back and the world keeps spinning.
Because Augusta is made-up of mostly conservative, white males, they are a near constant target of degradation and insult because they refuse to roll-over to the PC dogma. The hypocrisy of many liberals is that they preach tolerance and respect and yet are most intolerant and disprespectful of those that don't share their views.
Been every year and the crowd on Saturday was by far the largest I have seen. Didn't make it on Sunday but hard to believe the crowd was smaller than year 1 if Saturday was any indication. I noticed a lot of international fans. Sure there has always been fans from other countries there but the numbers seemed higher to me......great sign for a great event.
Too bad the point-shaving non-scandal has everyone running away from AU......;)

Sir Paul McCartney attended the Adopt-A-Minefield event with sweetie Heather -- a model who lost a leg in a traffic accident -- and soothed her swiftly after a clumsy waiter burned her bare shoulder with a HOT coffeepot! Heather cried "OUCH!" -- and Paul had to comfort her AND the horrified waiter, who started bawling. "It's allright," the ex-Beatle told Weepy Waiter . . . then he whispered to Heather, "I'll kiss the boo-boo!" As Hollywood-ites looked on goggle-eyed, Sir Paul licked and kissed Heather's ouch-ie!

The web of "spiritual" gobbledygook around the Oprah Winfrey phenomenon is as thick and tacky as the fake eye-lashes she cried off her face during Barack Obama's speech last Thursday. But if you do decide to "Live Your Best Life" and venture into the misty realms of Oprah's "Angel Network," you'll find on her web page a dropdown menu under "Spirit," and the last option there–after "Know Yourself," "Inspiration," "Emotional Health," and "Body Image"–is "Martha Beck." Beck is one of the luminaries in Oprah's pantheon of guru saints, and if I were her I'd be severing all ties with Oprah today.
Beck wrote a book entitled Expecting Adam about how she and her husband, both Harvard-educated success stories, decided to ignore all advice to the contrary and keep their unborn son Adam after doctors diagnosed him with Down's Syndrome. Beck appeared on an installment of Oprah's show called "Lifestyle Makeovers: How Well Do You Cope?" Here is a sampling of what she had to impart to Oprah and her audience:
I thought my son would make me a slave with his needs and his special problems, but instead he has set me free. . . It blew my whole world apart. My first reaction was, if I keep this baby it will ruin my life. And my second reaction was-I'm keepin' this baby. . . He was born on Mothers Day, and I was absolutely terrified. It took me about a year to stop grieving – I was grieving the loss of an expectation. . . It was a tragedy for the person I was at the time. For the person I am now – it was the best thing that ever happened to me. . . The world teaches that if we're not quite good enough, we have to worry about measuring-up. When Adam came, I knew he was never going to measure up. So I was able to completely embrace him and adore him exactly as he was . . . From the moment he was born, he was completely devoted to getting the most joyful experience out of every day. And he taught me how to do that . . . I felt connected to Adam's spirit long before he was born. What I didn't know is that he would teach me to connect with my own spirit.
You get the point. Martha Beck offered to Oprah's audience her personal experience regarding the ultimate joy she derived from keeping her Down's Syndrome child. This was an inspirational appearance – the message being, unmistakably: special needs children are blessings and compliments, not impediments to a rich life.
Now, Oprah has called Beck, "one of the smartest women I know," and if she believes in a fraction of what she celebrates about Beck's story and really wants to "start a kindness chain" as she professes on her website then she should explain to Beck, and her own audience, why she's refusing to have Sarah Palin on her show. What greater living exemplar of all the sentiments expressed above than Sarah Palin – a woman whose unconditional love for her Down's Syndrome child could serve as a the most effective public object lesson imaginable. Oprah should explain to Beck, and her trusting audience, why on Dec 4, 2007, she put out a casting call for "10 to 11 year olds with DS [Down Syndrome] and good speaking skills" to "say a line for [her] Martin Luther King episode," but after crying her eyelashes off on the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream Speech," she is refusing to have on her show a mother who embodies the spirit of love and acceptance professed by Dr. King. She needs to tell Martha Beck: "Yeah, I know about your son, and I know about my whole pledge to change lives for the better and all that, but you see, the thing is I signed on to support Barack Obama, and I have to stay true to his message of hope, change, and the American promise."

Best Sellers: Jordan Silver of Silver Lining Opticians on Beating The Big Guys at the Eyewear Game
Every week we turn to the top retailers in men's fashion—from the owners of small independent stores to buyers at multinational chains—to find out what items have been selling like hotcakes and how they stock their shelves. Today, we chat with Jordan Silver, the cofounder of Silver Lining Opticians, perhaps the best source of stylish, high-end vintage eyewear in New York City (and the best place to pick up a pair of sunnies we've ever seen), and find out how he competes (and succeeds) against the major producers, Sunglass Hut, and the guy selling fake Ray-Bans on the street for a fiver.
What are your recent best sellers?
Right now it's our in-house brand with acetate frames and really great hardware and hinges. The aesthetic thus far is really basic and time-tested—the "elements" of what eyewear should be. In fact, each piece is named after an element on the periodic table. Our recent successes have been the Sodium and the Aluminum and the all-time fan favorite, the Hydrogen.
Shades are something you grab on the street for five bucks or pick up at Sunglass Hut for $70. How have you been able to carve out a retail niche for vintage frames that can cost more than 10 times that?
Through consistent quality of product and our knowledge of late-20th-century vintage eyewear. Our celebrity and collector clients are looking for super-rare pieces, something that's truly luxurious, not because it's stamped with a brand name. Also, many other stores have everything behind lock and key, forcing customers to try on what a sales associate thinks they should. Erik Sacher, my business partner, and I have created an open environment to allow customers to browse for themselves and then ask for advice. Every day we help people decide to buy our eyewear through education and honest opinion giving.
You also have a strong celebrity following. How did you cultivate that?
Celebrity clients are really exciting, and it's honestly hard work. But they come to us for the breadth of our collection, our professionalism, and our discretion. They're also educated and savvy, understanding that wearing a custom Tom Ford suit isn't the same as wearing a pair of Tom Ford sunglasses from Sunglass Hut. No offense to Sunglass Hut, but these people wear clothing that people aspire to own, so why not also wear shades people will aspire to own?
How do you compete with the major eyewear-makers, particularly when they keep creating new vintage-inspired lines?
I can't say it isn't difficult. But what we offer is authenticity in our own designs, authenticity in the contemporary lines we carry, and authenticity in unused vintage. One way we keep ahead is by being nimble and taking risks. We often buy styles that aren't currently "in style," but we believe in it, share it with like-minded people, and soon enough we see them selling. I'm not saying we set the trend, but I think we're part of a small group that does.
What's your latest discovery?
For a long time we shied away from carrying sunglasses from the contemporary brands, since we have so much vintage. But this summer we took on two brands—Barton Perreira and Garrett Leight California Optical. Both have been very successful at Silver Lining and added a new category for us.
What's the last in-store item you took home for yourself?
A locking leather cabinet to hold 150 frames for my wife and me. I'm also debating whether or not I should take home a pair of black Persols from the early 1980s—the ones Jack Nicholson made so famous. They're so rare.
What's the most a customer ever dropped on a single purchase at the store?
We value our clients' privacy—but let's just say we see Centurion Cards on a weekly basis.

Full detailed profile on Jonathan "JB" Randall Played by Tom Pelphrey on Guiding Light Daytime Soap Opera.
Tom Pelphrey
Birthday: 1982-07-28
Jonathan picks up Sarah and tells her they're going to see her mom.
Reva is at Cross Creek making a sandwich and talking to a photo of Jeffrey. Jonathan watches her for a minute before coming in. She talks about marshmallow fluff and he teases her about talking to Jeffrey's picture. Shayne calls and apologizes to his mother for the way he's been behaving. After getting off the phone, she tells Jeffrey's picture that Shayne is a good kid even if he's weird.
Jonathan wanders through the woods and past Lizzie's. He watches her and Christina trying to do construction work. He runs off. Josh arrives to visit. Lizzie tells him that she and Bill are trying to have a baby. He promises to spoil it.
Reva sees Blake drive up and runs out to meet her. They sit at the picnic table and talk about what it's like to lose a husband. Blake wishes she could spend more time with her but she has to run. When Reva goes back in, she continues talking to Jeffrey's pictures. Jonathan snatches it away from her and tells her to stop. He accuses her of running away from her problems by closing herself in like this. As he tears down the pictures and yells in her face, she tells him not to judge her. He thinks she's insane.
Shayne goes to Cross Creek and finds that Jonathan is packing. Shayne tells him he's been making things better for their mother and compliments him on being a good father. They shake and Jonathan leaves. When Reva returns, she sees the note her son left behind. She talks to Jeffrey's picture again, admitting that she can't keep doing this.
Jonathan sends Reva off to the minimart. As soon as she's gone, Jeffrey calls. Jonathan tells him to hurry up and kill Edmund so he can see his kid again. Shayne arrives, surprised to see that his brother has been left alone with Colin. "You ever gonna stop running?" Shayne asks. Jonathan says he won't stop as long as he has to protect his kid. It's his 'father instinct'. As they taunt each other, Reva returns and tries joking around with them. Shayne scowls and then leaves. Jonathan begins doing a mocking impression of his brother. Jonathan begins trying to force his mother to take pictures of Jeffrey down. She refuses. He repeats that this is weird and tells her to take the 'always' carving on the mantel down. She says it comes with the house. They run around, teasing each other, and then she tells him how well Bill and Lizzie are doing.
Lizzie and Bill go out to Cross Creek. They wander the grounds and Jonathan wanders around looking for signs of Edmund. He calls Jeffrey and says he can't find anything. Jeffrey says he can leave but Jonathan wants to spend a few more days with his mother. He hears something and ducks into hiding in the shed. Bill and Lizzie come in and decide to kill some time. He suggests that they try to make a baby. "Not going to happen," she says. "You're one classy broad," he says.
After bursting into Cross Creek, Shayne starts pounding on the man he saw through the window. He notices it's Jonathan and keeps punching until Reva stops them. They're formally introduced and she gives them icepacks. The boys bicker about the mess with Edmund. Shayne brings up how Jonathan was raised by his uncle Edmund and they begin shouting at each other. Reva out screams them and insists that Jonathan and Edmund would never work together. She orders her sons to hug. They sit down and talk about Sarah before Reva tells Shayne no one can know his brother is there. He leaves. Jonathan drinks from the carton and they talk about how he is like his mom and Shayne is like his dad. Jonathan asks her what Josh thinks of the 'Jeffrey museum'.
Olivia brings the flowers to Reva, who comes out of the house to meet her. After she hands the flowers to her and drives off, Reva goes back inside, Jonathan has slipped into the bathroom when Jeffrey calls to tell him he'll be in touch. When he gets off the phone, Shayne comes out of hiding. "So how is Edmund?" he asks. Jonathan accuses him of trying to make trouble. Shayne doesn't like him or trust him and promises to watch him. "Knock yourself out. I'm a fascinating guy," he says.
Reva begins boxing up her pictures of Jeffrey. She has trouble taking them to the basement. She takes one out to hang it back up. When she walks into the living room, Jonathan is there. They scream and embrace. "I came to check up on you and, from the looks of it, not a moment too soon," he says. She admits that she hasn't been doing well. He tells her no one can know he's there. They hug more then she gets Colin to introduce them. As she bustles around, he calls Jeffrey to tell him things are okay and there's no sign of Edmund. Reva returns and they go through Colin's baby book. Reva cries when she sees a picture of Jeffrey. She tells him about her wedding at the weenie wagon. He bursts into laughter. As she rushes off to get the wedding album. Shayne walks up to the house. He spots someone through the window. "Edmund?" he wonders. He rushes in and punches Jonathan just as he turns around.

By brian | Poverty Jetset February 12, 2010 at 1:57AM
The Berlinale opened tonight with Wang Quan'an's "Apart Together," and the crowd headed over for the after-party at Cafe Moscow in the heart of East Berlin near Alexander Platz (24 Karl Marx Alle). It's a great venue, and it once was a terrific gay club on Sunday nights that Berlinale attendees who were so inclined used to go to for a bit of a late night blow out. But, it's latest manifestation was opening night. On our way in, the Photogs went nuts for this good looking couple. We weren't sure who they were, so if anyone can enlighten us, much appreciated.
Sticking to tradition, the Berlinale opening offered food from various Berlin restaurants. Cafe Moscow had three levels, including a disco in the basement (well remembered btw) and the two main levels had food for the taking. This particular round of food was right out of my great grandmother's kitchen (she was born and grew up here) and I so remembered it from growing up. Red cabbage and roast beef. I don't usually eat roast beef, but I just had to have a taste to throw it back to the past.

Sauced: Chimichurri Sauce
My first Chimichurri sauce was a real revelation. I made it on a whim to go with a flank steak, but was unprepared for just how well this Argentinian parsley-based sauce complements beef. Since then, I've been making it with some regularity, and bringing this Chimichurri enlightenment to others. More

Salutations to the glorious primal Guru, Sri Adinath who instructed the knowledge of HATHA YOGA which shines forth as a stairway for those who wish to ascend to the highest stage of yoga, RAJA YOGA.
The word Hatha is made up of two sanskrit words Ha and Tha where they symbolizes the Sun and the Moon respectively. They represent the twin energies which exist in everything. Hatha represents the forces of the Mind and the Prana which constitutes the Body and the Mind.
Moon represents the mental energy of chitta(mind) while the Sun, the Pranic force which is more dynamic and active. The two create the extremities - Introversion and Extroversion respectively.
Practice of Hatha yoga enables the fluctuation between these two energies to become harmonized and unified into one single force. If these two separate flowing energies, Prana and Chitta are unified, there emerges a suitable condition for the arise of Kundalini/Spiritual energy which when awakened travels through the sukshmana nadi.
Hatha yoga is the process of establishing perfect physical, mental, emotional, and psychic equilibrium by manipulating the energies of the body. For this, the physical body has to be refined and strengthened so it can act as a medium for the higher energy/cosmic force to pass through.Traditionally, Hatha yoga consisted only of six kriya, Shatkarmas namely, Dhauti, Basti, Neti, Trataka, Kapalabhathi, Nauli. later Hatha yoga came to include Asanas, Pranayama, Mudra and Bandha.
Through Hatha yoga one can regulate the bodily secretions, harmones, breath, brainwaves, prana which ultimately controls the fluctuations of mind and makes it harmonious.
Patanjali Yoga is widely identified as being the same as Raja Yoga (The Royal Path of Yoga). However, Patanjali Yoga can be defined as a specific system within the wider framework of Raja Yoga. Accordingly Raja Yoga includes the following system,
Kundalini yoga (laya yoga), Kriya yoga, Mantra yoga, Dhyana yoga, Patanjali yoga.
Raja yoga including Patanjali yoga is the science of the mind. Instead of exploring the outer world like other sciences, Raja yoga is concerned with exploring the inner world and unleashing the power and knowledge stored within. Raja yoga is often called the Yoga of Meditation. It may include God-dedicated action (Ritual worship), discrimination and concentration upon a chosen aspect of God. It is also concerned with the study of the body as a vehicle of spiritual energy. For eg, it describes the nature and function of the various psychic centers. It teaches us the importance of techniques in prayers.
Patanjali defines his method of yoga as 'The Elimination of the Mental Fluctuations'. He says, Mind is the visible tip of pure consciousness, which encompasses the conscious, subconscious and unconscious layers of being. Therefore, Patanjali 's definition of yoga is,
'Yogah chitta vritti nirodah'
Yoga is the control of patterns of consciousness'
Patanjali 's yoga is also called as 'Astanga Yoga' which consists of Eight limbs. These are;
Yama, Niyama, Asana.Pranayama, Pratyahara, Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi.
These techniques slows down and harmonizes the mind and induce subtle perception. These 8 limbs are divided into Exoteric (Bahiranga) and Esoteric (Antaranga). The first five negates consciousness while last three expand.
The stages upto pratyahara gradually remove the external distractions, whilst the practices from dharana onwards and eradicate the disturbing thoughts and psychic manifestations so that the mind ceases to function. The eight stages progressively steady the Pancha Koshas of man. i.e, Annamaya kosha, Pranamaya kosha, Manomaya kosha, Vijnanamaya kosha, Anandamaya kosha.
Eventually the aim of yoga is to transcend the limitations of these koshas, where one moves from the gross level to the more subtler levels.
According to Prashnopanishad 'Pranayama' is described as
Patanjali in his aphorism says,
'Yogah chitta vritti nirodah'
Yoga is a skill to control the mind/emerging thought waves
Mind is made up of manas, bhuddi and amhamkara. When we relax, we become one with the whole. No more ego and individual consciousness. When we are tense, we tend to have more concentrated ego and individual consciousness. How can we overcome this?
Carrying onself through four stages of concentration (Dharana) by Examining, Discriminating, Joyful state and Simple awareness on the object of one's choice takes one into the meditative phase(Dhyana). Concentration may be attained through devotion to God (Ishwara), mere repetition of God's name with awareness and meaning, on Prana(Vital force), awareness on thought-waves/sound waves, Trataka etc. Long, steady and continous practice of Dhyana opens one's consciousness and makes one familiar with our inner-self which is our true-self to merge with the source of all Creation, Life and Consiousness which is the primary purpose of all meditative practices.
Though meditation is a spiritual practice.It's effects are clearly seen not only by the change in character of the practioner but also has found interesting and positive results to body's physiological functions as well.
Mudra are specific body positions and hand gestures which channelizes the energy produced by Asanas, Pranayama, Meditation and other yogic practices into various centers and charkas and arouses a particular state of well-being in mind and body.
Our body is made up of Pancha pranas (Five life forces) which controls all the physiological functions in our body. These pancha pranas are headed by the main prana, Varistha prana. One of the purpose of yoga is to control varistha prana thereby controlling the mind leading to Samadhi.
Pancha prana --> Varistha prana --> Mind --> Samadhi
Mudras help in recognizing the nerve impulses leading to the recognition of Vyana prana (one of the pancha pranas). Vyana prana unlike other four pranas can move in any direction and at any speed. Therefore, if this vyana prana is controlled,channelized and utilized correctly increases the prana shakti dormant in all of us thereby, strengthening our immune system to revitalize and rejuvenate the whole body.
General mudras and therapeutic mudras when practiced under proper guidance of your yoga guru can bring many significant results.
Mantra is a sanskrit word which is composed of two roots. Man - Repetition and Tra - Freedom.
Mantra/Spandana is a resonance pattern of sound. Sound is an aspect of energy, a powerful energy which can influence the mind. When you recieve a mantra, you are actually recieving a portion of this powerful energy in potential form. Repeated chanting of certain mantra for certain duration varying its frequency, pitch creates a beautiful resonance spreading through various parts of your body. Every letter of the mantra has a particular resonance to particular part of the body. Recognizing and associating this resonance in the physical body bring special effects on body, prana, mind, emotions and intellect.
In order to experience meditation, we need a certain quality of mind. Before practices of dharana (concentration) one should clean one's mind. This can be done by specific mantras which removes impurities and impressions aiding in better dharana.
Thousands of sounds appear in the universe. Among them 'Om' represents the universal sound. Mantras are generally classified into three according to their effects,

Soaps Boards :: Days of Our Lives Forum :: I HEART WILL (CM) THREAD Free From Bashing Please

On another positive note I loved Will's confidence in Wednesday's episode when he told Marlena "Even if I'm a gay man?" "Did you notice, I said I'm gay"? It was said so simply I had tears.
Quote Str8tButEqual:
Quote allmylovingdays: I can't believe the writers are gone. NBC isn't going to stop the gay storyline they invested way too much. I know this, I believe this with all my heart. Don't get discouraged.
I posted this in other threads but I'm spreading the message so we don't get too freaked out:
I've been to other soap boards to see what other WilSon/gay s/l supporters thought about the outcome of this s/l with the new writers and they're not too worried about it. Gary Tomlin is openly gay and he was executive producer when Will's coming out storyline was approved and given a go on February last year and he's responsible for bringing Sonny to the show which might mean more airtime with Sonny. Christopher Whitesell who is also gay was co-head writer during the story of Luke and Noah on As The World Turns.
So from what I read from other posters not too much concern about getting rid of the gay s/l. The only thing I'm personally worried about is the content in how the story will be told & if there's going to be too much personality changes in Will or Sonny.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Str8t at least in this one thing....things hopefully won't change. I started to worry more while I was driving. NBC has MSN under its belt and it just made me wonder - BUT THEN I think I got MSN and FOX mixed up in my head. One of these is just too ultraconservative.
Re-watching Wednesday's episode with Will saying "I'm gay" it was very cathartic for him to say it with ease. I can't wait to see what the future holds for him.
I really can't get enough of Will and with his new positive attitude it's going to be interesting to watch him on the next phase of his life.
Still loving Will and Marlena. How completely typical is it that Sami is so wrapped up in herself that she has absolutely no clue that anything is even going on with Will, much less that he is gay and just coming to terms with it? I don't know if there is any way my dislike of her can be remedied at this point no matter how she reacts (which will somehow be related to her) since she has missed so much and will have to have someone point it out to her rather than being in tune with Will like Marlena.

Could it be?? That maybe the producers have finally started taking notice of us out here online that have been screaming for more WilSon? And I am not kidding about the screaming part either. Just look at some of the posts on FB or youtube even, the new viewers watching because of this gay storyline, are fit to be tied. They are tired of this thing dragging out, and I am NOT talking about the s/l plot BUT the small amount of screen time that WilSon are getting..When they have something like this story that is so relevent with what is happening in the country today and they have been barely leaking out episodes with WilSon..I mean "good grief" think about it! What show wouldn't want to find themselves in this position where their program is so current with the news and the social change that is happening in the country right now..TALK ABOUT DRAMA!! That's a gift from the Gods, seriously..All they have to do is make some appearances on some selected talk shows about DOOL and the current gay s/l and THEN put their money where their mouth is and make this s/l a more central part of the show, for awhile anyway..Like this summer would be PERFECT!! Young people out of school and having a little more time "maybe", they hear about some real edgy stuff going on over at NBC on DOOL and you might just have an increase in viewership..It's worth a try, don't you think?? Or am I just blowing smoke up somebodies you know what? CM is doing such a great job as well as FS and that goes for the great writing too. Come on guys.....SHINE A LITTLE LIGHT ON IT..Instead of some sloppy stupid ignorant s/l about some Grandpa looking for an "EGG"...give me a break..really??? With the talent this show has that's what they think is comparable to some of the other s/l on the show? Where are the adults in the room? I am hoping these new writers and directors will bring some well thought out common sense, and shout down the H8ERS and just go for it already..And you know what?? If they do they might get an Emmy out the deal..But what do I know? This is just my thoughts on what could be and what should be and what would be..And if you have "shoulda, woulda, and coulda" in one hand, and a dime in the other, what do you have?? Nothing but a dime
Soap Opera Digest.com stated that there latest issue ready to be published and for newstands for today and in it they were stating that the writers were GONE. So I honestly now have to wonder who was writing what and for how long.
Another Jem this week for Will and Marlena.. Seeing Will say he is Gay and his fears for the future was just amazingly portrayed by CM.. If anything I really hope the new TPTB continue to build on this amazing S/L.
An interesting online article about Will/CM coming out, I selected a few parts because I'm not sure about copying the whole thing for copyright reasons so I'm providing the link for those who want to read the entire article.
I am glad that Chandler's twitter account went crazy!!! He is doing such a wonderful job as Will that I hope he gets all the praise and acknowledgement from more than just us DOOL fans.

Am I nuts or do half of you not know the laws in Michigan as it pertains to guns? A gun can be carried almost anywhere in the state so as long as its not covered. This is commonly called Open Carry. This new law changes very little other then allowing you to conceal your weapon if you have a permit to do so. Simple fact is criminals do it all the time with no care for the laws in our state, while the law abiding citizen gets the proper registration and permit to do it!
Is it just me or did the dad look less concerned then a normal parent would be? He just goes and starts taking his stuff that went through the xray machine. I would be right there with my child attempting to calm their fears and working with the officers to get my son calmed down.
Misterdebate, there is no replacing the amount of officers they are losing, however what they are attempting to do is focus their time on the community and attempting stop being reactive and be more proactive which goes a long way when it comes to crime. You have to remember a lot of the crime in Kalamazoo comes from trouble with people, if they can narrow down on those people and either deal with that person in a criminal manner then they won't be around to create the trouble. The other things the community officers do is assist people who are not in good situations. I recently had the ability to talk to two of the current community policing officers who gave some great insight into what they do on a day to day basis and a lot of it is more along the lines of helping families with their troubles, be it a teenager out of control and being a role model for them, or helping families get into housing that is better then they are in or getting them to into a community program that can better their situation. They do a lot more then just "police" and if you can get the young kids not to get into gangs, or get them out of them and work on their social skills and home life it will go a long way in correcting the problems our communities have. One thing I heard a few years ago that I as an adult attempt to do more of is when I was younger, everyone in my community seen me and called me "Son", not "Kevin" or "hey you quit doing that" they took me under their wing and treated me like their own. If people in our communities would quit keeping to themselves and look out for each other and (while not getting into everyone elses business) work for a common goal of community involvement our communities would be better. Everyone is so busy these days that they don't pay attention to the stuff around them. If I was acting up in my neighborhood not only would the guy down the street come out and chastise me and tell me he knew my parents would be upset if they seen me acting like that but he would tell my parents and then I would get trouble at home too. If we had more "dad" figures in our communities things would be a lot better!
What a complete disgrace, who (in their right mind) would think taking two completely different functions, each with their own rules and regulations, and think making them 1 persons job would be a good idea?
567, While I agree with it being a nice looking building, even more so for its age, the cost to renovate would be extensive. The building would need to be gutted to bear walls with all new electrical/heating and plumbing put in to bring it up to code. The building is very old and its heating system is via boiler and those boilers set in building that is next to the Admin building, the same system that used to heat the old Central HS Building. The cost to redo just the boilers themselves would be pretty extensive let alone electrical.
The patient had to be extracted but was only slightly injured.
While you can have your beliefs that is great, the fact of the matter is laws are only for law abiding citizens, those who don't follow those laws don't care that they are there so kids/adults that have no business with a weapon can and will take it into the school and use it for illegal reason (aka killing 3 students in Ohio) however those who are legal tend to want their weapon/sidearm/gun to protect themselves, with that said he has every right to carry his pistol anywhere he goes with the exception of the places it is limited by law as written by the state.
Thank you KDPS
Does Portage not count to Kalamazoo County any more? Or Maybe Vicksburg, Schoolcraft and the rest of the south portion of the county?
Jason, While I agree with you, to a point, I have not witnessed the issue at PNMS because I do not have any students that attend their, I have however talked to Dr Harris on occasion and found her to be very dedicated to her students so I find it hard to believe she would do "nothing" about a situation. I do however know that she has little power over budget and can only "request" things and what gets done is done by administration and facilities. However on another note, with the exception of 12th Street, Lake Center and PCHS most of our schools are more then 15-20 years old. As such people need to understand that our habits as a community have changed greatly over the years. More people now take and pick up their children from school then in years prior and parking our parking lots were not made for that type of traffic. PNMS has a very large parking lot and while its shape and much like WMS its design is nothing like it! Painting lines will not change this. Our of our sinking fund millage we need to redo the lots that need to be fixed, I believe Woodland was done this summer. Look at the design for WMS parking lot, while it isn't the "best" and can have issue, the design is much more efficient, allows for better traffic flow and much less of a chance of a student getting hit.
Julie, I got it now, this really messed with my brain. So with the change elections will be held every other year (even years) and the elected will take the seat effective Jan 1st rather the July 1st as we currently do so it will be the middle of the school year. So with that being the case, those that expire 1212, Really will be up for re-election November 2012 and will start the new term Jan 1,2013 while those that expire 2013 & 2014 (Mr Howe, Ms Wilson and Mr Van Antwerp) will be up for re-election in 2014, and the new term would start Jan 1st, 2015. Those up for re-election in 2015 will really be voted upon in 2016 and would take off Jan 1st 2017.
What threw me off was the change in the cycle/time they expire.
Julie, I believe you theory is incorrect. I believe Mr Eddy is done in based on http://www.legislature.mi.gov/documents/2011-2012/publicact/htm/2011-PA-0233.htm his term ends in a odd year. However Mr. Snyder, Mr. Howe, Mr. Rathburn and Ms. Wilson would be extended 1 year based on how I read the legislation
I couldn't disagree more, I understand your point about openness and maybe stating to all board members that she would be absent due to medical treatment would have been good/nice however the need to disclose the type of treatment is not necessary. While I am not a female I might mention that I am battling cancer and at the recommendation of local doctor I am seeking treatment at a facility out of state that specializes in this specific type of cancer the need to mention the specific type of cancer is not needed.
Sorry Mr/Ms Couch, you however are wrong, she has no need either legally or otherwise to comment about any medical condition.
Thinking before typing is always a good thing. Medical Treatments are covered by privacy guidelines, she has no requirement to say why she is or isn't at a meeting. Transparency has nothing to do with it.
Now with that stated let me also state I don't know this person however as a resident of Portage she represents me. I simply say for someone without knowledge to make comments on the record is about someones absence is unprofessional so Mr. Sackley shame on you! I know you don't get along with her but you both serve the residents of Portage so you TWO need to learn how to get along and do what is in the BEST interest of the people who voted for you!
News How?
Glad to finely hear the grant has come through.
I don't think it was a cheap shot, I have a great admiration for Melonie and I can admit she asked a lot of questions, rightfully so, she wanted everything to be transparent and out in the open and thats the way things need to be!
Kevin Hoffer
Never knew this gentleman, however based on his son's account he was a good father and grand father, death is never easy and I dread the day I have to deal with losing a parent. However one think you can take comfort in is that he died doing what he loved to do. Now he is flying eternally and you will once again see him. My thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends of his!
