Chuck Landon: For Shuler, road trip is business all the way
Some players lounge in their hotel bed watching television.
Others play video games.
And some even get massages.
Those are the various routines for Marshall's football players at the team hotel on Friday nights before games.
Except for Tommy Shuler.
On Friday night, the sophomore wide receiver is already in pregame mode. So, while his teammates rest and relax, Shuler is busy doing homework.
For his next class?
No, for his next opponent.
Shuler's nose is in his laptop, watching videotape he has downloaded of the opposing defense he will be trying to beat the very next day.
"When we're at the hotel on Fridays," said Shuler, "like, people will be getting massages and I just take the laptop and look at film. I watch what they do.
"I do that when we go to the hotel. Instead of watching television or playing video games, I just look at film. I look at the little stuff. I put myself in their shoes. I'll think, 'Well, he could have done this.' And, then, I'll think, 'OK, I think I need to do that.' "
Then, on Saturday mornings Shuler meets with Marshall's quarterback Rakeem Cato to share what he has learned.
"When I wake up in the morning," said Shuler, "I'll go downstairs and me and Cato will get together. And I'll tell him, 'I think this is going to work.'
"I just tell Cato, 'That's probably going to be open. He's probably just got one hitch on that and you probably just have to throw on that.'
"So, then, we go out in the game and just perfect it. I say, 'Remember what I told you. That's going to be open all day.' Then, after the first drive, Cato will say, 'That's probably going to work.' "
That will be the case again this Friday after Marshall's flight arrives in Gulfport, Miss., and, then, the Herd rides 81 miles on buses before checking in at the team hotel in Hattiesburg, Miss.
Then, the Saturday morning ritual will be reprised by Shuler and Cato before the Herd takes on Southern Miss at 7 p.m. at Roberts Stadium, aka "The Rock."
Now, isn't it slightly easier to understand how a little 5-foot-8, 180-pound slot receiver can rank No. 2 in the nation in receptions with 58?
It's because Shuler puts in the time and work ... even on Friday nights.
That's also why the sophomore goes into the Southern Miss game as the Conference USA leader in receptions per game (9.7) and receiving yards per game (93.7).
"The film helps me every day because we watch film every day," explains Shuler. "So, when I go to the hotel I put all the film on my laptop."
So, what's he going to see Friday night? Some Southern Miss coverages that are going to make his eyes and feet dance.
"They played a lot of corners," said Cato, after watching the Golden Eagles' 38-31 double overtime loss to UCF. "They played some man. We have to take advantage of those shots. They played a lot of man.
"UCF stuffed the box and was running the ball with three tight ends, so Southern Miss was playing man on the outside. We've just got to take advantage of that.
"We want to see that."
Besides freeing up Shuler for his underneath routes, man coverage would allow Aaron Dobson to stretch the Southern Miss defense and, perhaps, catch some deep balls.
But it all starts on Friday night in Tommy Shuler's hotel room.

Bill Ellis: We all have much to be thankful for in November
Most all of us are glad the county, state and national elections are over. One of the first comments I heard the following day was, "Well, we got what we deserve."
The candidate who wins is always the one with a superb ground game — the same way many football games are won on every level. Sitting out one election is a vote for the other party. Vote or never complain.
Another thing we can be thankful for is the memory of and celebration of Veterans Day. Where I attend church most every Sunday morning, if I am not the pulpit guest in another church somewhere, was a beautiful and spiritually moving service. The 45-voice adult choir directed by Mandy Bohm, with appropriate visuals and the tremendous sermon, were among the highlights. Every branch of military service was recognized — Army,k Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard and the Marines who were authorized by the Continental Congress on Nov. 10, 1775.
Marine Tommy Williams led the congregation in prayer for our men and women who had served and are still serving in the military. This year is a 237 Birthday Anniversary for the Marines.
Dr. Melissa Pratt titled her sermon, "The Love Party." Jesus had a campaign slogan that read, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind and love your neighbor as yourself." (Matthew 22:37). This is the party I definitely want to belong to because it transcends all others and will conquer all others.
On Tuesday, citizens representing numerous segments of county life gathered in the beautiful community room of First State Bank in Hurricane, for the 18th Annual Putnam County Thanksgiving Dinner, catered superbly by The Gallery. Guest speaker was the legendary All-American football player and coach, Leon McCoy.
Thanksgiving Day is the only religious and Christian holiday having its origin in America. Some people list what they are thankful for on each of the 30 days — a month of blessings and gratitude.
A young man, named Mark, young enough to be my son, a math teacher of brilliant mind and spiritual depth, highlighted the first 10 days of the month. He said, "I am thankful for:"
n God's grace and justice
n A loving family
n A loving, patient fiancee
n The drive to not give up on the important things
n Those who served/serve honorably in the U.S. military
n My Marine brothers
n My biker friends
n Pets
n Opportunity and desire to learn
n The United States Marine Corps
I listened to and joined in the signing of a song titled "The Power of your Name." The chorus has these words: "And I will live to carry Your compassion, To love a world that's broken, To be Your hands and feet, And I will give with the life that I've been given, And go beyond religion to see the world be changed, By the power of Your name."
The best expression of Thanksgiving is to translate it into "Thanksliving."

We were backstage at the Basketball Wives Season 2 Reunion, and spoke individually with all of the ladies. Their best quotes are compiled in our She Said/She Said behind-the-scenes post, but we're also offering extended versions of the conducted interviews.
Below, Tami Roman discusses her difficulty in dealing with online feedback regarding the show, her surprise estrangement from her castmates and why she might not be back for Basketball Wives Season 3.
How does it feel to be here?
It feels a little strange because I haven't seen the girls since October.
Any of them?
No. Well, I saw Jennifer when we came to the VH1 digital office (for press), but everybody else I haven't seen since that time.
Are you cool with everybody?
It's awkward because for me, when we wrapped the show everybody was in a certain mindset. I am just the type of person that will reach out to you, but I am not going to always be the one reaching out. If it is reciprocal, then we are both checking in on each other. If I don't feel the love coming back from you, I will just continue doing my thing. I think that's the reason why a lot of us haven't spoken: we are all doing our own things and back to our lives. I don't really know how today is going to go. The shows have aired, so now people know what you said or know what you felt about certain situations. That can change people's feelings towards you. For me there were a lot of elements of surprise.
Can you name specifics?
I think the one thing that kind of really stuck with me was the episode where Evelyn and Shaunie were together getting ready to go to Spain and she was like, "Should we check her luggage?" That was a little bothersome to see.
Do you ever feel like Shaunie plays both sides?
I think that's her position! At the end of the day, even though she is on the show she is also the executive producer. She is in the business of making a great show. From a personal stand point, I think she would like to be friendly but at the same time, she still has to make a great show. She does what she has to do.
So you don't hold that against her?
No, I don't hold that against her. There may be things that I don't like or I don't agree with, but in the back of my mind I know why she has to do certain things.
When you say you haven't heard from people, is that disappointing? In Spain, you made it a point to call out the "sisterly bond" you felt with these women.
I have spoken to Royce and Ashley more than the people that I thought I was bonding with the most. It's weird because I thought that when we left the show that it would be more camaraderie, but I have found that social media plays a big part in how people deal with each other. With all the Twittering, we try to be friends, but then people say, – Oh the show is fake." The show is not fake, but if they see us talking they are going to think that what they are seeing is fake, so you kind of lay off a little so that you don't cause problems for the show. So there are a lot of different elements that make having a friendship very awkward in terms of the show and the public.
Speaking of Twitter, one thing I noticed on yours is that you said you didn't know if you were coming back for Season 3. Seriously?
Yeah. I think that the show stands on its own, and that it was good the first season. I think it would be good the third season even if I wasn't on it. It's not necessarily that they need me to be apart of the show.
It would be really weird if you weren't. What's holding you back?
I think I am at a different point now then when I actually taped the show. I'm just not a fake person, smiling in your face and talking about you behind your back. I don't care what happens on TV, if I have a conversation with you and we have an understanding or we are trying to build a friendship then that's how I always think it is. Then to hear somebody say, "She said this about you," "She said that about you" – ¦ To hear people think that I am ghetto because I had a drink, to hear people degrade my character, all of that to me seems I am paying more than it is actually worth to me. For me going into Season 3, if I were to do it it would definitely only be because I felt that I have something more to bring. I don't want to be on the show just arguing and being catty. I don't want that being the only element that I am bringing to the show, 'cause that's not really who I am as a person in my entirety. I don't want to be pegged the drama queen, the ghetto girl, the hood rat, so if that means that I have to step away, then that's a decision that I have to make.
Do you have any idea how close you are to deciding?
I am still talking to my representation and we are deliberating. Like I said, if I feel like I can bring more storylines and more issues that are going to matter to people who are watching without them being misconstrued or my personality continually being downplayed and degraded, then I will participate 100 percent. If I go through things and I feel like all they want me to be is the person that has a problem with everybody, that's not who I am.
Coming off this show compared to The Real World, was the noise of social media hard to deal with?
It was really hard to deal with because I feel everybody's had that moment. If you are over 25, you've had that moment. You've had a point in your life where you've when out with friends you had a drink you did something crazy. You may not have even needed a drink to do something crazy, and so it's just that camera's happened to be there that night I had a drink and did something crazy. And now that's all I am being tied. That's so not who I am as a person in my entirety. I have a hood side, and I will bring it out from time to time, but that's not who I am as a whole. So it was really hard to have people just bashing me because we didn't have that when I did The Real World. There are a lot of things that I am thinking about going into Season 3.
Do you stand by your assertion that "every bitch in this circle is messy"?
I still stand by that. Every single person! If you are not good TV, then you are gone, so everybody has to have an element of messy whatever that is!
All in all, has the experience of the show airing been positive or negative for you?
I think it's like 50/50. I think the people who are familiar with The Real World and the things that I have done with my acting are supportive, and I think that the people who are being introduced to me for the first time that have a love for the girls who were already on the show, so it's like I am the s***-starter. So it's a 50/50. It's a double-edged sword. For me, it's a good medium to reintroduce myself to people and have a visibility but I am also the type of person who wants to bring something to the table as well.

Comment Just wait until this is the good old days... (Score 1) 165
It could be worse, you could be vested in their pension program. The fact is that human beings are not well equipped to manage 7 billion human souls on earth today. The economics is too complex and dynamic for our mammalian lives and tribal clans to fully conceive. Even IF everyone was fair and agreed to a system, it would likely fail to function for very long before short stick ends were everywhere. Perhaps the idea that there are perhaps one billion jobs for seven billion people should be a clue. The fact that half of those are not profit driven is the next clue. There will never be enough money around for society to be smooth and steady for long. If money is what we lack, then everyone is poor. We need to learn to exchange a little more social currency, because central banks will always be hoarders. Quantitative easing is a numbers game, but its hardly sufficient at building highways or educating brain surgeons for very much longer. My point is that, yes you're absolutely right, it ain't like it was, and its not even close to how you think it might be. Its a dynamic force that is frankly getting to be too much to manage without tremendous flexibility and open mindedness, until we simply surrender to nature. Nature is, after all, where this all started. Human nature may be where it stands, for the time being. Like in Cairo, Athens, Rome - the Golden Ages come and go. The Empire must be getting a little week at the knees if they outsource IT.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating Period in China's History,
Set in the late 1950s, "Dreams of Joy" is the story of young Joy Louie who leaves her comfortable home in Los Angeles' Chinatown for the People's Republic of China to find both her birth father and what she thinks will be a better way of life. Her association with a communist group at the University of Chicago has led her to believe that it isn't the evil portrayed by the United States Government.
Since her birth father is a well-known artist in Shanghai, it is fairly easy for her to find him in spite of government restrictions. After his initial shock of discovering he even has a daughter, he seems happy to know her. She travels with him to the village of Green Dragon where she joins the commune and falls in love with a young peasant farmer.
In 1958, Mao announced the "Great Leap Forward," an attempt to increase agricultural and industrial production. However, three years of floods and bad harvest due to poor farming methods, severely damaged levels of production. The famine that occurred reportedly resulted in 4.5 million fatalities. The author masterfully transports us to that village and shows us in startling detail the horrors that result from this famine. Her attention to detail is wonderful and, while the book isn't a page-turner in the sense of a thriller, I was spellbound by the history of a period in China that has always fascinated me.
Although "Dreams of Joy" is the sequel to "Shanghai Girls," which I have never read, I found it stands alone quite well. Since I am always intrigued by the history of China, I will certainly go back and read the prequel, as well as Ms. See's earlier books. She is a skilful author with the ability to transfer the reader to the exotic country she writes about.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Story!,
Louise Jolly "Bookaholic" (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
On August 23, 1957, nineteen-year-old Joy, is a confused and upset Chinese girl. Everything she thought she knew about her birth has been a lie! The woman she thought was her mother was her aunt. Her aunt is actually her mother, and the man she loved as her father turns out not to have been her father at all and now he's dead. Her "biological" father is an artist from Shanghai whom both her mother and aunt have loved since before Joy was born. His name is Li Zhi-ge or Z.G. Li Zhi-ge used to paint Joy's mother and aunt when they were models back in Shanghai.
At 2 o'clock in the morning, Joy decides to leave their Los Angeles, California home and go to China. She packs a bag, writes her mother a note and quietly slips out the door. She walks to the nearest pay phone and calls her boyfriend Joe and tells him to get up, get dressed and get on a plane to San Francisco to meet her - they were going to China! Joe was having no part of that and hung up on her. However, Joy is still going to China, determined as ever to find her "real" father: "...even if he lives in a country of 600 million."
Joy is dazzled by Z.G. but is totally blinded by idealism and defiance and throws herself into the New Society of Red China, heedless of the dangers in the Communist regime.
Distraught by Joy's leaving and terrified for her safety, Pearl is determined to save her daughter, no matter the personal cost. From the crowded city to remote villages, Pearl confronts old demons and almost insurmountable challenges as she follows Joy, hoping for reconciliation.
A beautiful story of a family challenged by tragedy and time, but ultimately united by the resilience of love. Lisa See has a remarkable ability for writing and I've read every book she has written and with each one she just keeps outdoing herself. This is one you won't want to miss.
5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing book!,
This review is from: Dreams of Joy: A Novel (Kindle Edition)
Amazing book! Love it and I recommend it!
It's a profound story with many turning points, emotions, adventures and horror moments.
I loved the main characters and their continuous fight for their own dreams.
Here are some quotes I like and would love to share:
"Everybody works so everybody eats."
"A hurried marriage is not a solid basis for a marriage. Suicide is not a solution to unhappiness."
"Just remember, a person is his – or her – history. If your history isn't good, then you won't be good. A rebel as a five-year-old will be a rebel as young man and will die a rebel."
"The spear hits the bird that sticks his head out."
"As long as we have enthusiasm and determination, we can achieve anything!"
"An inch of gold won't buy an inch of time."
"Always show the greatest kindness to the ones you like the least. If you show kindness to your mother-in-law, who like all women has been bred to hate her daughter-in-law, then you will create an obligation she will never be able to repay."
"No matter what you're feeling or how desperate you become, always take a moral position."
"Those who have little to lose don't want to lose what little they have. "
"…men are attracted to women who are crazy about them."
"…truth, forgiveness, and goodness are more important than revenge, condemnation, and cruelty."
"Give a low man one ounce of power and he'll throw ten thousand pounds of bricks on your head."
"Nothing is more precious than when you might lose it."

Karoline (Richmond BC) - See all my reviews
I was very disappointed with this book. I had high hopes because I really did enjoy Shanghai Girls. The beginning of the book wasn't so bad actually. It was pretty interesting. I liked the way you follow Joy through her journey to China - it was an eye opener, but her naivete also gets the best out of her as well. The reader already knows she's in for a quite a bit of pain and suffering and so sometimes you find yourself shaking your head at Joy's blind faith in the system.
I actually preferred Pearl's point of view of the story and her journey, because she had left so much behind and some questions were left unanswered. I loved how she went back home, back to her town and back to where she used to live, to find it radically changed, but she found people she recognized. It wasn't really a reunion that would be considered nice, but after so many years of not seeing these people, it was nice to see they were still there. I really liked reading Pearl because she showed a lot of strength and courage to go back and face anything to get Joy back.
When the Great Leap Forward comes along, I liked how this was added in, to make the plot move, and to put Joy and Pearl's journeys on a similar backdrop, but I just could not get into it. It was really slow and things just seemed to drag. The switching back and forth from Pearl to Joy wasn't so bad but the pace of the book was about the same as watching molasses being poured out of a container. Joy's plot really did seem to drag its' heels. I did not know how much of her stupidity I could take.
The ending wasn't so bad. However by the time I was almost done, I really wanted it to be done. It was very drawn out, and the writing just seemed really bland. It did not have the same dramatic tone as Shanghai Girls did. One thing I will mention though, this book does a good job in drawing out feelings from the reader.
It wasn't the greatest book, if you're a fan, or wanting to know what happens at the end of Shanghai Girls, well you might as well read it. Otherwise, you could just skip it. It's too slow and bland to be fully enjoyed which is too bad, it would have been an excellent novel otherwise.
1.0 out of 5 stars The Narrator is Horrible,
Team Awesomeness "Team Awesomeness" (Vancouver) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dreams of Joy (Audio CD)
I have the hardcopy too so this is not a review of the book but of the recording. I want to do this because a bad audio can ruin a book. I get the audio for commute. This is brutal to listen too. Whole sections of it made me want to rip my earphones out. The narrator, Janet Song, constantly sounds like she has a mouth full of saliva. Its VERY annoying. I'm asian so don't try to pretend it's a racial thing. Have you ever seen an asian news anchor sound like she's gargling her own saliva? NO because it is unpleasant to listen to.
Buy the eBook or hardcopy instead. Or look for one without Janet Song as narrator.
As well, she places unneeded and inappropriate emotional stress in Joy's voice. She constantly sounds like she's on the verge of tears and that is not the voice of that character in every single friggin page. Especially when I feel like she might spit on me while she's talking because of the saliva audible in her words.
1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed.,
This review is from: Dreams of Joy: A Novel (Paperback)
I couldn't wait for this sequel to Shanghai Girls but I was so disappointed and I could not get past the part of Joy finding her father on the first day of her arrival in Shanghai. Having lived in Asia and having traveled in China extensively, I found Joy's journey and experiences on her first day in Shanghai totally unrealistic. How could anyone find their birth father in a city of millions of people on the day they arrive? It was downhill from there.

Reader (Calgary, Alberta Canada) - See all my reviews
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is a must read after Shanghai Girls. Lisa See, again, does not disappoint with her storytelling about immigrants who migrate to the west for political or economic reasons and the first generations quest for their roots. See does this poignantly through her young, defiant daughter. The young woman's quest discloses numerous socioeconomic issues communism would prefer to conceal behind the bamboo curtain. A well researched page-turner.
5.0 out of 5 stars captivating,
This review is from: Dreams of Joy: A Novel (Kindle Edition)
I really enjoyed this book. It was full of insight and gave a riveting story of the beginning enthusiasm of the PRC, followed by the reality of a planned economy, all the while interweaving the personal story of a young idealistic girl.
4.0 out of 5 stars Lisa See is enjoyable reading material,

Hidden Nods to the Original Hawaii Five-0
Through the past five years, HAWAII FIVE-0 has often honored the original "Hawaii Five-O" series with references to its predecessor hidden within the episodes. In celebration of the 100th episode that airs Friday, Nov. 7, following is a list of those nods to the legendary original series hidden within the current one:
• Pilot – McGarrett's 1974 Mercury Marquis is the actual car from the original series. It was owned by Jack Lord himself and is seen several times throughout the series.
• Pilot – "Book'em Danno" – The most famous line from the original series was said for the first time in the pilot and often repeated throughout the series.

• 315 "Hookman" – Local character actor Terry Plunkett, who played several small roles over the years in the original series, makes an appearance as the Mailbox Proprietor.

Feeling alone without x-mass tree on Hanukkah? Here is a song for you
Adam Sandler performed Hanukkah song on Comedy Central. As for me, I do not know what to do. To laugh or to cry. Here the beginning
Put on your yalmulka, here comes hanukkah
Its so much fun-akkah to celebrate hanukkah,
Hanukkah is the festival of lights,
Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights.
When you feel like the only kid in town without a x-mas tree, heres a list of
People who are jewish, just like you and me:
David lee roth lights the menorrah,
So do james caan, kirk douglas, and the late dinah shore-ah
Guess who eats together at the karnickey deli,
Bowzer from sha-na-na, and arthur fonzerrelli.
Paul newmans half jewish; goldie hawns half too,
Put them together–what a fine lookin jew!

Laghman Province
Provincial Overview (PDF)
In the News
Laghman Province is located in eastern Afghanistan, near the Afghanistan - Pakistan border. The province is bordered by Nuristan in the north, Kunar in the east, Nangarhar in the south, and Kabul / Kapisa in the west. The majority of the province is mountainous. Kashmund range in the southeast; Kuhestan range in the north. Laghman has intensively cultivated land along river valleys and forested areas in Alingar, Alishing, and Dawlat Shah districts. The population of approximatley 375,000 are Pashtun, Tajik, Pashai, Kata, as well as other smaller minority groups. The primary occupations of the residents are agriculture, government, and day labor. Their are over 1100 provincial aid projects on-going at a cost of over $9 million.
Governor Azizi replaced Lutfullah Mashal on March 18, 2010 as the governor of Laghman province. He formerly served as the Education Minister for Nangarhar Province in 2008-2009. Former Interior Ministry spokesman, Lutfullah Mashal previously served as Governor of Laghman, replacing Muhammad Gulabuddin Mangal, a Pashtun Mangal born in Paktia. Mangal was re-appointed as Governor of Helmand.
Taliban Shadow Governor: Maulvi Shaheed Khail, a former Taliban era Minister, was released from Afghan custody in 2008 and was appointed as the shadow governor the same year. He has a reputation for being "fierce but fair" among residents. Qari Muir formerly served as the deputy shadow governor for Laghman and chief of intelligence before he was killed in the village of Qal'eh-ye Jom-eh in Pul-e Alam district, August 2010.
Human Terrain:
Ghilzai Pashtun:
Comprise just over 50% of the population in Laghman. Concentrated in Alingar, Mehterlam and Qarghayi districts. Ghilzai Tree (PDF)
Occupy same areas, generally, as the Ghilzai Pashtun. Tajiks are the second largest ethnic group in Afghanistan, after the Pashtuns and comprise between 25-30% of the population. The Tajiks in Afghanistan tend to live in settled communities as opposed to a nomadic lifestyle. They are of Iranian descent and primarily speak Dari. The majority of Tajiks are Sunni Muslims. Tajiks made up the majority of the Northern Alliance, both in terms of membership and leadership. Tribal ties have largely broken down among the Tajiks; therefore, social organization is defined primarily by geography. Despite their lack of cohesiveness the Tajiks are often brought together due to the perceived common threat posed by the Pashtuns. Tajik Tree (PDF)
Nuristani Tribes:
The Nuristani in Afghanistan primarily live in high elevations in northeast Afghanistan. They trace their genealogy back to either the Greek forces of Alexander the great or to the tribes of Mecca which rejected Islam. For centuries the Nuristanis were known as "kafirs", or infidels. This has changed as most have converted to Islam. There are fifteen Nuristani tribes with numerous sub-groups. Five languages and numerous dialects are spoken by the Nuristani. Do not have overly positive relations with other Afghans or Pakistanis and a strong animosity toward Arabs. Nuristani Tree (PDF)
Kata (Western):
Occupy the majority of Daulatshai and Alishing districts. Also reside in parts of Alingar, Mehterlam and Qarghayi districts. The Kata are a Nuristani tribe which speaks two dialects of Kamakata viri.
Ashtu (Ashku):
Also a Nuristani tribe, which with the Kata, live in the districts of Daulatshai and Alishing.
Concentrated in northern portion of Daulatshai District. There is very little useful data on the Pashai, outside of some intense research on their language. They inhabit Nuristan, parts of Laghman, and northern Nangarhar, seemingly between the Pashtun and Nuristanis. Many consider themselves Pashtun. They speak a Dardic language referred to as Pashai. Often they are associated with or referred to as Kohistani. The majority of Pashai in Laghman rely on the livestock and timber business.[1]
Primary Political Parties:
Hezb-e Islami Khalis (HiK):
Originally a mujahideen group which broke away from Hekmatyar's Hezb-e Islami under the leadership of Yunus Khalis. HiK was dominant in Nangarhar. Khalis died in 2005 or 2006, resulting in an internal power struggle for control of the party between Khalis' son Anwarul Haq Mujahid and Haji Din Mohammad. It appears that Mohammad was successful in consolidating his control over much of the party. Recent and active political players in Nangarhar have connections to HiK. Led by Haji Din Mohammad, current governor of Kabul.
Hezb-e Afghan Millat (Afghan Nation Party):
National Pashtun party, led by Finance Minister Dr. Anwar Ul-haq Ahadi. Over 10,000 members in Nangarhar. Platform based on unity, security, and creating an Islamic version of democracy. Maintains a muted, ethno-nationalist rhetoric.
Nazhat-e Hambastagi Milli (National Solidarity Movement/National Islamic Front):
Led by Pir Ishaq Gailani. Party promotes national unity, security and a national development plan. Tied to the Maraboutic Sufi order; has considerable influence over the Khugiyani tribesmen.
Hezb-e Afghanistan Naween (New Afghanistan Party/Qanuni):
Led by Mohammad Yunus Qanuni. Part of a political alliance called Jabahai Tafahim Millie or National Understanding Front. Qanuni was the primary contender against Karzai for the presidency. He is a Tajik who has been a mujahideen, spokesman for Ahmed Shah Massoud, and Minister of Interior and Education. He was elected to parliament in 2005 and was chosen to lead the Wolesi Jirga. Support for him and his party may be a political counter-weight to Karzai.
Hezb-e Islami Gulbuddin (HiG):
Mujahideen party active since the Soviet invasion; led by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. Actively opposed to US-led and Afghan national forces. Politically active in Sherzad, Surk Rod and Pachir Wa Gam districts. Hekmatyar is a Kharoti Ghilzai and, therefore, less influential than the much more respected and powerful Khugiyanis, such as Haji Din Mohammad and Anwarul Haq Mohammad.[2]

|hahahaha, i was trying to avoid that. by the end i was quite exhausted, and i really kept losing my ground on screes and gravel. We were really dehidrated, and we ended up drinking the freezing cold and wonderful water from the stream in Vrata valley. It turned out to be good to drink. :-)

|I have been first time in TNP. We reached Kredarica Hut about 10pm. There were some people in the hut. Started to Triglav at 06:30h in winter condition. We had to pick up and off many times our crampons. There was fine weather conditions without clouds, stormy and pretty humid air. The summit was reached at 10h am.
Not too difficult a path, but the snow makes it more hard. I have luckily caught a good weather with my friends Sene and Adam.

Date Climbed: Jul 12, 2008
|I went up from Aljazev dom via the Tominskov route and as I was not tired, decided to find another route on the descend. I did not know based on the map how difficult the Bambergov route is, so started that way. There would have been no problem, though this route is more suitable for ascend if at a tricky place I don't try to put down my backpack. I tried, of course it fell a few hundred meters down with all my papers, money etc. in it. I tried everything to get it from below, without success. I went down to the Aljazev dom where the ladies gave me food and accomodation, they arranged that the national park ranger helps me next day. And so it happened: the ranger brought alpineering equipment with him and as we went back to the scene, he climbed down and got my stuff. I'd like to say thank you to all of them again and encourage everybody to visit Slovenia and its friendly, helpful inhabitants!

No equipment carried, but there was no need for anything.
In sunny weather no need for anything. If you can walk and use your hands to catch ropes and chains, you can do it in a sandals and shorts. Very relaxing mountain. But never tryed in a bad weather.

SOUTHPORT, Fla. -- A bizarre case of child abuse in Bay County.
The Sheriff's Office says Tina Sandlin, also known as Tina Michelle Byng, cut the head off a family's pet rabbit, in front of two young children.
The children tell investigators Sandlin called them out of the bedroom of their Southport home on July 15, held their pet rabbit up by the ears and cut rabbit's head off with a knife. The kids say the rabbit was kicking and there was "lots of blood."
Upset by what they saw, it took a while for the kids to come clean to their dad about what happened.
Deputies arrested Sandlin about 8:00 p.m. Monday. She was hiding under a mobile home on Newman Point Road.
Sandlin is has been charged with two counts of Child Abuse for Affliction of Mental Cruelty, Felony Cruelty to Animals, and Resisting an Officer without Violence. She was also wanted for violating her parole on a DUI and driving without a license conviction.

True steak aficionados, turn away. The hard-hitting TMZ caught up with Chris Webber after hearing reports that he left an upscale steakhouse because they didn't have steak sauce.
Watch the video below:
For most steak lovers, putting sauce on a fine steak is like [redacted]. This has obviously blown into a mini-controversy. Americans love their steaks and have strong opinions about how to cook and eat a steak.
Webber responded via Twitter:
Here at S&F, we can understand why some would like steak sauce. So we might give C-Webb a pass on this one (Although we would never take him to The Met or Daniel's in Seattle — we'd be too embarrassed if/when he would ask for the A1).
Although the focus has been on the sauce/no-sauce debate, something we cannot forgive and overlook is that C-Webb likes his steak well done! It's sacrilegious and an affront to American values.
So what do you say, S&F readers? Sauce or no sauce on your steaks?

They set up two different schemes in the two different losses and he lost both times, therefore giving teams the example to go at the Broncos two different ways and destroy them
OK tebow might not be great but he is a decent Q. I see great future for this team. Tebow said this will be a big offseason for him. He has the skills and potential to improve and maybe become a long time starter for the Broncos.

Sunset Koan
On Christmas Day I calculated that from the summit of Wildcat Peak the sun would set directly behind the middle of the Golden Gate Bridge. This seemed like a great excuse for hiking off some excess holiday indulgence, so in the afternoon I grabbed Julian (my oldest son) and we made for the Inspiration Point trailhead my cameras and tripod in tow.
We had a jolly time on the trail, and there were lots of happy people out and about, mostly with dogs and extended families. But up on Wildcat Peak it seemed that the band of coastal clouds would prevail. The Golden Gate could not be seen.
Stubbornly, we waited for sunset on the off-chance that there would be a brief respite in the weather—preferably just when the sun was setting behind the bridge. One of Julian's endearing traits, and one that serves him well, is that he is almost never willing to give up on anything, even against all odds.
But the shot I'd prepared for didn't seem likely. The sun was still above the cloud bank, but it was going down without the bridge being visible.
So I started fooling around with my 70-300mm zoom lens.
If you've ever pointed a lens with telephoto focal lengths at the setting sun and rotated the manual focus ring, you'll have observed that the closer you focus the more out-of-focus the sun gets—and (this is the interesting part) also the larger the sun gets. This optical phenomenon is particularly true when you are shooting wide open at the maximum aperture of the lens.
I was having fun making the sun into a big orange ball that filled the entire frame by focusing my 300mm to about ten feet when all of a sudden the thought struck me, why not put something in the foreground?
There was no time to be lost. The big round ball at the horizon was setting into the fog bank. I hurried to try to find something interesting and close, and focused on a patch of bare weeds. Then, before I knew it, the sun was gone and the world turned gray and colorless.
The actual exposure settings for this image were, using my lens set to its maximum 300mm focal length, 1/8000 of a second at f/6.3 and ISO 200, hand held.
Back home, when I showed Julian the finished image, he was perplexed: "You made that photo from that litttle, random weed?!!?" he asked.
In life, often we go out looking for the dramatic sunset behind the Golden Gate Bridges in our lives. But it may be the little random weeds that really matter.
Somehow, in these days of renewal when the sun starts to come back from its long journey towards apparent oblivion, I find myself looking to photograph the sun, perhaps to assure myself that it is real.
It always helps to put something in the foreground like the waves shown crashing in their interference patterns at North Beach on Point Reyes, California.
Foregrounds, random weeds, and the return of the sun: the makings of a meditation.
Escape from the Shadows
Escape from the Shadows, photo by Harold Davis. View this image larger.
A few weeks ago there was a freak snowstorm in the coastal hills above Berkeley and Oakland, California. It doesn't usually snow here, so I rushed up with my camera.
Temperatures were above freezing, so the snow on branches took on a look almost like ice.
This tree was lit with subdued sunlight in a nook with towering dark fir trees behind. I intentionally underexposed to let the background go dark, and to bring out the contrast between the white branches and tha dark background. During the black and white conversion process, I worked to bring out the subtle properties of the light.
Coastal Range Snow

It rained most of the night, and towards morning got cold enough to snow at the crest of the coastal hills. Snow is rare indeed around here. In the morning, Phyllis got the kids to school and I headed for the hills above Oakland. As the sun burnt the fog and snow away I made this image facing towards Mt Diablo. You can see the clump of trees on the upper left in this wider view from 2007.

I've been thinking about lines in composition, and black & white. Here are two examples where both visual effects come into play.
Above: A fence divides the water utility (EBMUD) lands from the public park in East Bay, and a path follows the fence up the hill. You actually have to payan annual fee to hike on the EBMUD land, and they have their own private force policing this.
Below: How often do you see a sunset in black and white? It's like seeing flowers in monochrome.
Watching this sunset fron the end of Point Reyes, I was surprised how contrast increased as the sunset progressed, and I realized there really is a simple compositional story here.

Like the winter thistle, I found this frost-covered fern frond on a chill early morning in Tilden Park.

The morning dawned cold (for around here).
I grabbed the kids and ran up to Tilden Park. Nicky and Julian played with frost and skim ice, a rare treat for them, and I photographed frost covered thistles. The sun came up, and I rushed them to school a bit late, all of us flushed from the outdoors and happy.
Miracle of Light
Miracle of Light, photo by Harold Davis. View this image larger.
It was a chilly (for the Bay area) December afternoon with intermittent squalls of rain. Around 3:30PM I drove to Inspiration Point in Tilden Park. I dressed in several layers of wool and a down jacket. With about thirty pounds of camera gear on my back I headed for Wildcat Peak.
I got to the summit in good time, about half an hour before sunset. There was a chill and moist wind blowing, so I bundled up. I was ready with camera, tripod, and long lens as the sun sank behind the Golden Gate Bridge. After a brief moment showing the miracle of light, the sun disappeared into a fog bank, and all was cold, dark, and gray. I made the trek home bundled in my balaclava as one by one the stars came out.

Wildcat Peak Sunset
Wildcat Peak Sunset, photo by Harold Davis. View this image larger.
I went for a walk at twilight, hoping to clear my head after the excitement of the last few weeks. Sea-born clouds and fog were ramping quickly into the coastal range, so I didn't have too much hopes for photography. Still, I brought my photo gear, because you never know.
Turning the corner on the trail, I got a view of Wildcat Peak with the disk of the setting sun visible above it. By the time I got my camera out and was in position, the sun had vanished in the fog. I held on to the bitter end. The sun appeared, setting behind the peak, at the last.
I took care to expose for the sun itself, letting the foreground go dark (because I know I could fix this in the digital darkroom, and I didn't want the sun to blow out). Fix or no fix, much of the drama of this photo is in the contrast between the setting sun and the dark hillside.
[Nikon D300, 18-200mm VR zoom lens at 200mm (300mm in 35mm terms), 1/400 of a second at f/7.1 and ISO 100, handheld, image stabilization engaged.]
San Pablo Bay from Wildcat Peak
San Pablo Bay is the upper part of San Francisco Bay, to the northeast of the Golden Gate. Beyond San Pablo Bay, if you were a ship you could make your way through the Carquinez Strait into Suisan Bay and the maze of the Sacramento River delta.
On Tuesday we were picking up the kids at around 5:30PM from their pre-school, Step One, which sits high up in the Berkeley hills. Phyllis and I looked at striations in the sky, and figured that the sunet might be memorable. I decided to head for Wildcat Peak, which is the highest peak in the Bay area that can't be reached by road.
I packed my bag, Phyllis made me a sandwich to go, and I was at the trailhead at Inspiration Point in Tilden Park by about 6:15. Wildcat Peak is only a couple of miles, and I was there in plenty of time for sunset.
The really spectacular views from Wildcat are west towards San Francisco, the Golden Gate, Mount Tamalpais, and beyond. There's also a nice view of Mount Diablo.
As night came on dark and inky in the upper sky, I was struck by the wrap-around effect as the coastal range in Tilden Park topographically stepped down to San Pablo Bay.
This was a one minute exposure with my lens wide open.

Bay Sunset from Wildcat Peak
This afternoon I took off to Tilden Park with my photo gear to enjoy the sunshine. How nice the sun seems after all the rain we've had.
Wildcat Peak is a great vantage point for photographing Bay sunsets. It's very dramatic, also cold and windy this evening. And a long trek down in the dark. But I'm glad I was there for sunset…
Check this photo out larger!
These wonderful bush morning glories are California natives. Of course, they are small and fragile flowers.
I photographed them over the weekend in the Tilden Park Botanic Garden. The kids were running around like wild kids, my camera with macro lens and extension tubes were on the tripod, and it was hard to have the patience to wait for a lull in the breeze amid the cacophonic cries of "Daddy, Daddy!"
Still, you got to love glory morning or evening in whatever form it comes!
Mount Diablo
The Hills Turn Brown in the Summer
There's an amazing wilderness less than a mile from me consisting of Tilden Park, Wildcat Canyon Regional Park, some other East Bay parks, and municipal water supply land. True, the water supply land ("EBMUD") has its own private police force, and you need a special permit to hike in it.
But the rest of the area is accessed by beautiful trails. Once this was grazing and ranch lands, and you still find cows along with wild turkeys, the occassional mountain lion, and a wonderful variety of animals. It's amazing that this is so close to San Francisco.
As folk singer and song writer Kate Wolf wrote in memorable lyrics:
Here in California fruit hangs heavy on the vines
There's no gold I thought I'd warn you
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
The hills are indeed golden brown, and Julian and I went for a wonderful and strenuous hike in these golden hills in the wilderness in our back yard!
Wild Orchid, Tilden Park
Tilden Park is a great and extensive wild area very near me. It is about 1/2 a mile up to the top of the hill and to the park entrance (right by Nicky's pre-school).
The park is part of the California State Park system. Although bisected by high-tension power wires, and with wonderful attractions such as a narrow gauge steam railroad, animal farm, and merry-go-round, it is really, truly pretty wild. Wildlife includes the occassional mountain lion, eagle, and rattlesnake.
The park has miles and miles of trails and views of San Francisco Bay to the west, Mt Diabolo to the south and east, and Napa and the Straits of Carquinez to the north. It includes the entire Wildcat Basin, Wildcat Peak, Lake Anza, a botanical garden featuring California native plants, and an extensive nature preserve.
Mid-June is a little late in the year for wild flowers in the park. Mostly, everything turns a golden brown – and will keep getting crisper until the autumn rains. But even when everything is dry, one can still find treasures – witness the photo of the wild orchid hidden in dry grass that I found along the Meadows Canyon Trail this afternoon.
Here are a few more images from my set today taken along the Meadows Canyon Train in Tilden Park:
The Carousel in Tilden Park
Nicky and I went first to the steam trains and then to the carousel in Tilden Park today.
We both had a lot of fun.
It's great to be able to spend time one on one with the kids, and as the middle boy Nicky sometimes seems to get a little less attention than his younger or older brother.
He rode the merry-go-round at least five times, many of them in the rotating saucer. The double rotation made me dizzy after just one ride.
This carousel in Tilden Park near us is an elegant and wonderful thing for kids of all ages!

Have to agree with the other posters. Especially, on the topic of recycling.
I have to agree with the Funeral Ethics Organization. Crass and crude. I would not want to work with him. He needs a different occupation. He does not belong in the funeral business.
Have to agree, MikePReader.
Community Service should be for trustworthy people that wish to volunteer for their community, not criminals.
There are so many things in life outside the walls of a college that can provide the same information and actually offer experience outside a book. Though books are important. There are museums and libraries in Springfield and Symphony Hall, etc.
Yes, they are important. Yet, one can be a thoughtful person with a good perspective on life without taking these courses.
Justin said:
"in order to be a thoughtful person with a good perspective on life, studying the humanities is necessary."
No, Justin, NOT at all!
How do they "certainly deserve" $ 2,100.00 a month?
I gotta ask, what about all the people that speed on residential streets? I see cars going twice the speed limit on my own street.
I just quoted another poster - that post is now gone.
"my tax dollars would be spent better if they go after the illegal welfare taking drug dealers."
Amen to that.
Yes, at this point it is too much. This case is on every local news channel and here on Masslive constantly. It really can't be breaking news.
But seriously, isn't it a bit much having a fund for a duck when there are so many children and elderly out there in need?
@ badonkdadonk and rrudd
Have to agree with both of you. I've thought the same with Justin's multiple daily posts.
"Facebook should be banned for ALL public officials - elected, appointed or otherwise."
Has anyone else in Springfield received constant prerecorded calls from Longmeadow's Eric Madison? We are not near Longmeadow yet we have received calls day and night.
Nice. Just nice.
That is a great Idea. It would be uplifting to read about young professionals and all professionals in Springfield. What better subject matter.

Gammidge Family
A short-lived family name of the Shire-hobbits; indeed, Hob Gammidge is the only recorded hobbit to use the name. It was a corruption of the name of his family's original home, the village of Gamwich. The name was further corrupted when Hob acquired the nickname 'Old Gammidgy', which in turn gave rise to the family name 'Gamgee'.

Fabulous bags Caitlin. Too hard to choose a favourite as they are all lovely. It's certainly sewing weather in Melbourne today. I can't remember the last time it rained this constantly. If I didn't have 3 boys destroying the house I'd be contemplating a day in doors with fabric.

Unlike most of my friends who cry from shame when their zipper is down, this cute new plush animal from Japanese toy giant Takara Tomy can't help itself from laughing. It even adjusts the level of laughter based on how widely the zipper is open, including a muffled laugh when the zipper is closed.

3. Marissa Confronts Cristina
Marissa is pissed that Cristina blabbed to Morgan about her drama with the girls, and confronts her about what actually went down. In a strange twist, Marissa is eerily quiet through out the entire sitdown. It can only mean one thing: this is the maddest she's ever been in her life. Eek!

text: Conclusion Improving Patient Safety in Long-Term Care Facilities, Module 1 In SummaryThe ability to detect change in a resident's condition is important because it can prevent illness from getting worse. Nursing staff know the residents best; therefore they are the best qualified to notice when there is a change in a resident's condition. Detecting change depends on all nursing staff (nursing assistants/licensed nurses) being alert to changes and ready to share their observations and respond to the changes.In order to properly assess a change, it is necessary to know the resident's normal (baseline) condition, assess the change and compare it with the baseline, and know which changes might be signs of illness. When there is a change in condition in an older person, it usually is less obvious than it would be in a younger person, and it could mean many different things.Changes to watch for include those affecting the way a resident walks, urination and bowel patterns, skin changes, level of weakness, falls, vital signs, demeanor, appetite, sleeping, speech, confusion or agitation, and resident complaints of pain. It may be necessary to report a change repeatedly.Return to Contents Pearls and PitfallsPearlsThe best way to detect a change in a nursing center resident is to get to know what is normal for that particular resident.You can learn to be observant, and to make a habit of being "tuned in" to residents.Older people have less response to change, so the signs and symptoms of illness they exhibit may be milder or different from those seen in younger people.A safe environment supports open reporting of resident changes and doesn't find fault with reporters.When in doubt, report a change.PitfallsFeeling that it is hard to report a change because someone might be blamed is a barrier to safe care.Forgetting to use reporting tools makes it harder for the care team to be alerted to changes once these are detected.Expecting someone else to take action when change is detected does not help residents stay safe.Assuming someone else knows the resident better or knows more than you can get in the way of your desire to report what you think might be a change.Summing Up:Detecting changes can prevent an illness from getting worse.Nursing staff know the resident best.Nursing staff must be alert to watch for changes.The need to share observations and respond to changes is very important.Staff must know what's normal for the resident so it can used for comparison when there is a change.Staff must know the different changes they need to watch for.
