CENTRAL FALLS — The past five months or so have been hectic for Jim Bourgault, though he wouldn't have it any other way.
When he's not working as an assistant supervisor in Teknor Apex's Plastics Division, or tending to his wife, Jean, and their three children and two grandchildren, Bourgault is busy weight training in his garage behind his Hunt Street home.
Naturally, he's nicknamed it the "Powerasylum."
Truth be told, Bourgault – despite being 51 – exists for powerlifting, and has a lot to show for his unrelenting love for the sport. Last June 14, at the U.S. Powerlifting Federation's National Championships in Marietta, Oh., he competed in the 50-54 age category's 275-pound Master's Division and registered a bench press of 551 pounds to win his fifth national crown.
With that lift, the Central Falls native shattered the Master's world record by a whopping 40 pounds. He also competed in the same division's dead lift, and lofted a weight of 601 pounds, good for another world mark (by five pounds) and his sixth U.S. title.
Because of his gold medal-winning performances, he automatically qualified for the World Powerlifting Federation's World Multi Championships at Aldershot, England, held last Nov. 6-14. During that meet, he took the bench press with a heave of 529 pounds, out-lifting dozens of competitors from around the globe, and also captured the dead lift with a max of 570 pounds.
"In the bench press, I was nowhere near my (world) record; I went for 556 pounds, but I was about three inches shy of a complete lockout," he grinned while relaxing at his kitchen table on Wednesday. "And I know why: I had jet lag in a bad way.
"Jean and I wanted to save some money so we could do more site-seeing after competing, so we didn't fly straightaway like we did last time (when they traveled to Bath, England for the 2010 World event)," he continued. "We flew from Boston to Ontario and then to London … and we were in the air for about 16 hours. I have to admit, I was dead tired.
"We got there on a Friday at midnight, and I had to compete that Sunday; that just wasn't enough time to recuperate. I had never had jet lag before, so it caught me by surprise. I was a little bummed out, but it still was a good trip."
Bourgault admitted he wasn't the lone "foreigner" to suffer like consequences.
"We had two or three other American guys who were favorites to win, but they bombed out," he noted. "It was for the same reason: Sheer exhaustion. One of those guys at Nationals – Lance Karabel from Chicago – had a 900-plus-pound squat, which was amazing. He tried to bench 600 pounds, but he missed on all three lifts, so he was out.
"He's a great guy; even after he bombed out, he stayed around and helped coach me. He helped me with my gear – my belt and stuff. He was the American team captain, and that was great. He helped me to the world championships.
"That's what I love about this," he added. "Yeah, it's a competition, but it's 'Man against Weight,' not so much against each other. Myself and my fellow competitors, we get along really well."
Bourgault never competed in athletics while attending Central Falls High in the late 1970s; he didn't because, he said, "I was a geek. I just wasn't into it."
In fact, he used to dabble in weightlifting just to stay in shape, but never truly thought about competing until after his 29th birthday.
"I decided back in 1992 I wanted to go and see the U.S. Powerlifting Federation's Rhode Island Championships in Seekonk (at the old Hearthstone Inn), and I was talking to Ted Issabella, who's from Johnston," he explained. "He's a legend in powerlifting, but a really nice guy; we talked for a long time, like we had been friends forever.
"He encouraged me to try it," he added. "I had been doing some bodybuilding and some 'strongman' stuff, but that's it. I was on no real schedule. Ted gave me some pointers on how to train, and some routines. After that, I really buckled down. I followed his advice for about a year. Next thing I knew, I was in my first competition."
That took place at the same R.I. Championships in 1993, and he finished fourth overall.
"I stunk," he laughed. "I was bad. I did a 315-pound squat, a 260 bench press and a 460 dead lift. I weighed just 212, so I guess you could say I was pretty svelte back then (he then chuckled some more).
"I see pictures, and I still can't believe it was me. I didn't do very well, but I was hooked; I had caught the bug. I couldn't believe how everyone was cheering for you. It makes you feel like you're a superstar. It gives you such a rush.
"To this day," he continued, "I still get nervous before a competition, at least until that first lift is over, then I settle down. Other guys have told me they feel the same way, and that – if you don't get that feeling anymore – it's time to hang it up. You're just spinning your wheels, wasting your time."
Ask Bourgault how many national titles he's won, and he doesn't hesitate.
"Six in the U.S., and four world championships," he smiled. "Honestly, it blows my mind, but God's been very good to me. I've been able to stay, for the most part, injury-free, which is another gift from God, but I've also had great training partners."
That's the next chapter of his unique story. About four years ago, former Central Falls High buddy Joe Travers traveled with his son Erik – soon to be a Cumberland High freshman – to Bourgault's place.
Travers asked him for weightlifting advice for them both, and Bourgault immediately welcomed them, stating he would help in any way they wished.
Before he knew it, he was a volunteer powerlifting coach for the CHS football and wrestling programs.
"He trains all these kids, and he refuses to take a dime," the elder Travers claimed. "I've known him since I was about 15, and he hasn't changed a bit. When we told him we wanted to pay him, he said, 'Don't even think about it. If you try to pay me, then don't bother coming. I don't want money.'
"He also said, 'I want them here because they do more for me than I could ever do for them,'" he added. "My son (Erik) just told me, 'Dad, I wouldn't have been able to do half the stuff I did in wrestling or football without Jimmy. He got me stronger for all of my athletic events.' Erik isn't that big a kid, like 150-160, but Jimmy got him so strong, he can compete with anyone."
Cases in point: Travers the younger captained both his Cumberland varsity football and grappling squads. In the former, he helped bring the Clippers to an undefeated league season and its first Super Bowl win (a 49-0 blowout of Woonsocket) in December; and, on the mat, he placed second at the R.I. Championships in Providence in the 152-pound weight class.
Travers lost to Exeter/West Greenwich senior Christian LaBrie at the meet in February, but he nevertheless aided in Cumberland's fifth-place team finish. (It took the state crown his junior campaign).
"Like I said, I've known Jim a long time, and he's so selfless," Joe Travers stated. "That's just the way he operates."
Ask Bourgault why he chooses to mentor those Clippers, and his answer is hardly surprising.
"We lift together, and I love it," he offered. "They spot me all the time, and give me encouragement. They push me more than I could ever get from a regular gym. There's no ego thing attached to this; there's no showing off in front of younger kids. We just stress technique and speed.
"When Joe and Erik came to me, I was excited about helping out. I played sandlot football with Joe when we were teen-agers, and he knew I had gotten into lifting. He wanted his sons and his friends to learn the right way. He didn't want Erik to get hurt. I told both of them, 'If the kids listen and do what they're told, and let me set the pace, I guarantee they'll get bigger, stronger and faster.
"Erik was about 106 (pounds) when he came to me as a freshman, but – at the end of his first year – he weighed 132. Right now, he's at 157, and he's put on some muscle. He's a strong kid, just unbelievable.
"He's the strongest kid psychologically I've ever come across," he added. "He just pushes so far beyond his limits. I remember once he was dead-lifting 500 pounds, and it took him about eight seconds to complete the lift. I kept telling him to put it down; he refused and kept pulling. When he got to the top of the lift and locked it, he threw up.
"Instead of a sad face, all I saw was him jumping for joy. He had completed his goal, did what he wanted to do. He dead-lifted over three times his body weight, and – if you can do that – it's national caliber."
It took Erik perhaps a week to get some of his CHS teammates to join the program, and about a year to enlist a few friends who played football and grappled at North Providence High. The big, bulky coach gladly accepted them into his regimen, and they too have excelled.
"They're great listeners and learners," Bourgault said. "I'm doing this for fun. I get free training partners, and they're keeping me young. The most gratifying thing is I get a chance to make a difference in someone's life – in this case, young athletes. I believe, when the book closes on me, I'll have one good mark in it, and God will say I did OK.
"I thought the kids did great at the state (wrestling) meet," he continued. "I wasn't surprised at all by Erik or Jon Maccini, (Travers' fellow co-captain who lost to LaBrie's twin brother, Andrew, in the 145-pound final). They're so skilled, and they put in the time necessary to excel. They just ran into the LaBrie brothers; if not for them, they easily would've been state champs.
"I also thought Cody Beaudette wrestled really well, (as) he's a strong, strong kid; Kylie Creamer, this is his first year training with me, and he's come a long way. Kylie's here with the same kid who beat him at 106, Andrew Lourenco (of North Providence).
"They're good friends and really good kids, as is Nick Tribelli, who really surprised me. (Head coach) Steve Gordon told me Nick came out of nowhere at states, and was very confident and aggressive in his matches.
"Honestly, I care more about them improving than me. The reason: They're still young, and they're still trying to peak. Me? I'm an old man; I'm fighting time (more laughs). If you asked the kids what they think, they'll say they're trying to push me more than I push them because they want ME to succeed. To me, this is a dream."
His tutelage isn't gained just by local student-athletes. His blue eyes beam when he talks about his youngest daughter, Brianna, another training partner.
"In her first competition, she set four new world records for her age group," he indicated of the American Powerlifting Association's New England Record Breakers meet in Peabody, Mass. "She was only 11 (a few years ago), and she bench-pressed 70 pounds, her body weight, squatted 110 and dead-lifted 140.
"I still train her, and she loves it."
His eldest child, James Jr. (29), powerlifts "off and on," while Amanda (27) is busy caring for her two youngsters, Amiaya and Antonio.
"James was actually my coach at the Nationals in Ohio, and he helped me set those two world marks," Bourgault noted. "He talked me into going for it, psyching me up. He reminded me of all the time I put in the garage. You know, I was a little nervous, but he settled me down. He's the one responsible for me blowing them away.
"Actually, Amanda's husband, Tony Silva, is a great powerlifter," he added. "He has a lot of state records, and he only weights about 132. He's done a 460 squat, a 319 bench and 519 dead lift, and that's amazing. He's only done this for two years, and he's crushed other established lifters.
"He could've been a national and world champion if he stuck with it; I think he'll get back to it when he's older and his kids are, too."
He hesitated, then grinned, "Kind of like me."
For now, Bourgault will take off the rest of this year, excepting part-time training, before preparing for the 2014 Nationals, then the World Championships, slated for November in Verone, France.
"I want to get healthier, get back to doing more cardio and losing some weight," he stated. "This will give my body a chance to recharge, and my mind a chance to become more motivated. I want to take a break. That will help me get hungry again for competition.
"I will say this: Jeannie and I never had a honeymoon right after we got married," he giggled. "Because of powerlifting, we're getting more honeymoons than we ever thought possible. I guess we're making up for lost time."
A wink of his eye explained it all.

BioGraham Nolan
In his 22 year career as a cartoonist/illustrator, Graham has worked on
characters for all the major comic companies but is best know for his 6
year run drawing Batman in DETECTIVE COMICS and co-creating the
villain, BANE.
Currently, Graham is illustrating the Sunday PHANTOM and the daily and
Sunday medical strip, REX MORGAN, M.D. for King Features Syndicate. In
his spare time he is working on a couple creator owned projects,
including the sequel to his self-published MONSTER ISLAND.
Lori G: Graham, we are publishing your second volume of
Phantom newspaper strips in November here at Moonstone, so I thought it would
be the PERFECT time to sit down with you for a little chat about the Phantom
and other things! Here goes! Your first question is….. How did you become
involved in the Phantom newspaper strip? Did you approach them or did they approach you?
GRAHAM: I was trying to get a strip, MONSTER ISLAND syndicated at the time and they approached me about taking over REX MORGAN, M.D. I told them I would love to do the PHANTOM if there was ever an opening, and two months later…voila!
Lori G: Your first exposure to the Ghost Who Walks was your mom, right? (This is from your introduction for the Graham Nolan Sundays vol one).Were you reading other comics when you were growing up, what were some of your favorites? Can you point to any one comic book/character that could be seen as the catalyst for your chosen profession: professional comic book artist!
GRAHAM: My sixth grade teacher brought in a stack of comics and that's when I got hooked. I loved anything with Superman, Batman, Spiderman in it, as well as the Doc Savage books. But my first exposure to super-heroes was probably the ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN, and BATMAN tv shows that were on at the time.
Lori G: How long have you been drawing the strip? How many newspapers does it appear in? Is this (Sadly, or local papers in Chicago do NOT print the strip, so all of us here in this area rely on the nifty reprint editions, like the one here at Moonstone!)
GRAHAM: I have been at the Phantom since 2001. The strip is
carried in some 600 papers here and abroad and is very popular in Australia,
Sweden, India, Norway and Denmark.
Lori G:The Phantom strips that Moonstone has reprinted are Sunday strips only; do you also draw any of the dailies? Looking at the table of contents for The Graham Nolan Sundays vol one, I see that you have worked with multiple writers on the strip. How does the whole process work? Do you receive an outline first, and then draw from that, and then the dialogue is written, ala old-school Marvel?
GRAHAM: The daily strip is handled by Paul Ryan, and the regular writer is Tony DePaul on both the dailies and Sunday. I receive full scripts encompassing the 26 weeks of the story from which I interpret.
Lori G: In the Graham Nolan collected Sundays volume one, you are credited as writing one of the strips, have you written more strips since then? Will there be any more of your penned scripts in the second collection? I see multiple writers credited, are you working with just one writer currently?
GRAHAM: No, that was the only one I have written. That came about because the regular writer (Tony) took a header on his Harley and was unable to write for six months.
Lori G: What are a few of the other comic book projects you have worked on over the years? What are some of the main differences between drawing a strip vs drawing a 22-page comic?
GRAHAM: I had a six-year run drawing BATMAN in Detective Comics. I did the Vengeance of Bane series, SUPERMAN: THE ODYSSEY, WOLVERINE, HAWKWORLD, BATMAN vs SPIDERMAN…and a lot more in the 20 years I've been at it.
The main difference in drawing a strip vs. a comic-book is the real estate you have to work with.
Lori G: The panel layout has to be totally different, I
would assume. Is it possible to take us
thru a little of the "process" of drawing the strip?
GRAHAM: In a Sunday strip, the panels have to break in certain spots so that newspapers have the option to format the strip in various ways to fit their comic page. The way MOONSTONE is publishing the strips is what's known as 1/2 Tab (half a tabloid page), which is the way the original art is set up. Unfortunately there are not a lot of papers that print the strip that way, so it's great that readers can now see it in this form.
Lori G: Are you able to squeeze in any other projects or does the Phantom strip take up most of your time?
GRAHAM: Other than the PHANTOM, I also draw the daily AND Sunday REX MORGAN, M.D. for King Features. I recently finished a specialty comic project featuring the AVENGERS for Marvel Comics. It's a comic that will be given to the troops overseas through the AAFES (Army, Air Force, Exchange Service).
Lori G: I'm sorry
Graham, but I just MUST ask you one final question:if you could have ONE superpower, what would
it be and more importantly WHY? (I ask
everyone I interview this question because we are ALL comic book fans, so it
just seems like the natural thing to do!)
GRAHAM: Well, I always wanted to be a pilot, so I guess being able to fly.
Lori G: Well, Graham, I can't thank you enough for taking the time to chat with me about the Phantom!
GRAHAM: My pleasure!
Don't forget children, Volume One of the Phantom Graham
Nolan Sundays is available NOW on this website, or ask your local retailer if
they have a copy. Volume Two is coming
in November, so look for it; it is MUST-HAVE for ALL Phantom Phans!!!
Pre-order yours TODAY from your LCS!
Until next time,

I was concerned about buying a used car that may have been involved in Hurricane Sandy flooding, and CARFAX gave me the peace of mind to know I was making a good choice. Colorado is one of the few stats that does not require sellers to specifically state whether a car may have had flood damage in a salvage title. Looking at many used SUV's, I noticed on the CARFAX Reports that quite a few had gone to auction in the New York/New Jersey area in November 2012, right after Hurricane Sandy and were now being sold in the Denver area. I didn't want to take a chance on one of these so I found a 2008 Highlander that had never been in that area and never had a salvage title. As an added bonus I could see the vehicle had been taken care of by the service records on the CARFAX Report. Thanks CARFAX!

February 2011
Access Missouri budget funding increasedGovernor estimates program will affect 46,000 students this spring alone.
In mid-January, Mo. Gov. Nixon announced an increase in the budget for Access Missouri to approximately $58.7 million. In a statement, Gov. Nixon said about 46,000 students will benefit from the program this spring semester alone.
"I am certainly pleased with the increased funding," said Dr. Gerald Brouder, Columbia College president, "even if the amount has been reduced. As an educator, I understand the importance of this fund to students in assisting them achieve their goals and dreams."
Last year, Gov. Nixon proposed eliminating the program altogether. In April 2010, a letter-writing campaign that garnered more than 100 Columbia College students signatures was partially responsible for keeping Access Missouri alive.
For the 2010-2011 academic year, the annual Access Missouri award amounts are $1,900 for students attending independent institutions like Columbia College, $275 for students attending public two-year institutions and $950 for students attending public four-year institutions.
A student at Columbia College formerly could receive up to $4,600 through Access Missouri, compared to $2,850 for public institutions. At the end of the 2009-10 academic year, more than 1,800 Columbia College students had received funding for their education through the program.

Note: It Took Alain Vigneault Some Time To Learn Which Sedin Was Which
In an article from 2011, Alain Vigneault disclosed that it took him three seasons to be able to tell Henrik and Daniel Sedin apart.
Vigneault said that he learned who was who when Daniel was injured for about six weeks and away from the team. He added that when Daniel returned he felt embarrassed that he couldn't tell them apart before.
Henrik said that Vigneault sometimes forgets players first names.
John Tortorella said recently that he has no idea which twin is which.

So, I was at Texas today for a tour, and they mentioned this thread. Not specifically, but as in "someone posted wanting to know why their retport hasn't been pulled".
They said to be patient and give them some time, dude. There are only 5 of them and 2 or 3 have been out recruiting for several weeks. They'll get to it soon.

160 in Oct 02, 163 on this one. I moved up from the 82nd %tile to the 90th, but I'm not even sure I want to waste my 70 bucks on UT now. Sigh. What a waste of time.

From the $1100 Kaplan course. The lesson book has lots of hand written tips gleaned from the class.
Lesson book is well marked, home study book about 2/3 and orange book about 1/3 marked up. The explanations alone are worth it for these books. First $100 gets all 3. I'll check back here for interest.

IDE for Free Pascal - Meta Package
Lazarus is an IDE to create (graphical and console) applications with Free Pascal. Free Pascal is a (L)GPL'ed Pascal and Object Pascal compiler that runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and more.
Lazarus is the missing part of the puzzle that will allow you to develop programs for all of the above platforms in a Delphi like environment. The IDE is a RAD tool that includes a form designer.
Unlike Java's "write once, run anywhere" motto, Lazarus and Free Pascal strive for "write once, compile anywhere". Since the exact same compiler is available on all of the above platforms you don't need to do any recoding to produce identical products for different platforms.
In short, Lazarus is a free RAD tool for Free Pascal using its Lazarus Component Library (LCL).
This is a metapackage depending on all packages need to have a typical Lazarus installation.

Like the engine of your car, the right web hosting plan can make the difference between constant breakdowns or smooth, high-speed performance.
Underestimating the importance of hosting can be a lethal business mistake when it comes to working on the web. Here's a few reasons why.
How to Attract More Twitter Followers
Twitter is a communications tool, not a strategy. It's as ubiquitous as the telephone on your desk or the email on your screen. So how do you cultivate an audience of active, interested and relevant followers?
There is nothing special about Twitter. If you've ever attended a networking event, or chatted to customers in any capacity, you're already halfway there.

It's not amazing that you can play something out of drating guitar hero. (yyz and kansas) Hell, the kid probably has never even heard of either of the two bands that she played their song. (Aside from hearing it in guitar hero (Not that listening to a satyr baaah-ing away on the mic is that interesting))
Nor is it any more amazing that you can play any of the work of Chopin, Beethoven, etc. All in all, you're being uncreative and playing someone else's work.

Question by Emily C: How far in advance can I make a wedding cake?
I'm making about 150 mini-cakes that are two layers. I've heard to freeze the actual cake in advance, will that affect the taste? How long can a decorated fondant cake stay good for? I'm an amatuer, any tips would be great

True matrimonial cake can be made a year in advance and kept frozen.Alcohol is also used to marinate the cake which improves the flavour.

Location: Reynolds Journalism Institute, University of Missouri in Columbia, Mo.
Do you see news archives as invaluable sources of historical reference? Are you concerned about the fragility of digital news content from the past 40 years? Are you passionate about saving this "rough first draft of history" and ready to take action? Do you enjoy working collaboratively with thought leaders and pioneers in other fields who share the same commitment to preserving born-digital news? If so, the upcoming "Dodging the Memory Hole: Saving Born-digital News Content" forum wants you to join a select group that will help decide what will tomorrow bring for yesterday's news.
In today's digital newsrooms, a software/hardware crash can wipe out decades of text, photos, videos and applications in a fraction of a second. Digital archives can easily become obsolete due to evolving formats and digital systems used by modern media, not to mention media failure, bit-rot and link-rot.
One recent survey found that most American media enterprises fail to adequately process their born-digital news content for long-term survival. This potential disappearance of news, birth announcements, obituaries and feature stories represents an impending loss of cultural heritage and identity for communities and the nation at large: a kind of Orwellian "memory hole" of our own unintentional making.
Forum attendees should be prepared to:
- Engage with the top minds now working in the fields of journalism, library science, business, information technology, law, government and philanthropy.
- Talk about the things you are most passionate about and interested in.
- Volunteer to host small group discussions about things that are critical to achieving the goal of digital preservation.
- Network with other researchers, historians, lawyers, authors, entrepreneurs and genealogists who care about this issue.
- Help bridge the disconnect between the short-term goals of news producers and the long-term needs of digital preservation.
- Develop approaches to possible partnerships between businesses and public institutions that can work for both private enterprise and the public good.
- Shape best practices about the formats and structures holding digital news data, which will allow researchers of all kinds to examine larger and more complete corpora for data mining.
- Be inspired.
- Have fun!
A broad range of stakeholders are needed to realize this important goal. You can make that happen by joining Mizzou Advantage and the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute at the "Dodging the Memory Hole: Saving Born-digital News Content" forum on November 10-11, 2014, in Columbia, Missouri. Your ideas and experience are critical to the success of this event.
A message from Clifford Lynch, director of the Coalition for Networked Information and forum participant:
"Past experience teaches us that news is a central part of the cultural record; it is used by an enormous range of scholarly disciplines as well as being of lasting importance to the broad public. In the digital world the nature of what constitutes news has already changed in fundamental ways, and the traditional practices for preserving news for future generations will no longer work. This is a major crisis, both for the future of scholarly work and for our ability, as a society, to maintain a rich and comprehensive view of our history."
A message from Katherine Skinner, executive director of the Educopia Institute and forum participant:
"For centuries, memory organizations have dependably acquired, provided access to and preserved print news for future researchers. As news has transitioned from print-only to multimedia, most of these preservation relationships and workflows have broken. Tomorrow's researchers will not have access to today's news unless we act now. Bringing stakeholders together from all angles of this problem — news publishers and press associations, technologists and researchers, libraries and archives, corporations and funding agencies — will lay a crucial foundation for resolving this information crisis."

Hi there!
I've been dreaming of and planning out my future boarding and breeding stables (I'm 16... heehee) and, in the process of figuring out costs, I've been pretty dang shocked. 60k+ to build an indoor riding ring? Really? I just can't see why.
So, could anyone who owns or has built barns, arenas, etc, break down the cost for your particular project? The more detailed, the better.
My arena I've been planning: indoor, with sort of garage-door-style 'windows' that make up more of the walls than the wall does (does that description make sense? Lol) that would open to make it feel more like a covered arena than indoor, but also let in a ton of light when closed. Probably 100'x200'. I loved loved loved this footing a barn had- sand mixed with rubber bits- so that's most likely what I would have.
Do you need a drainage system for indoor/covered arenas?
Also, I've been considering the cost of building a small racetrack... yeah, a racetrack. (I figure it would be good for exercising a horse if someone else is in the arena [and you don't need to jump or anything*], or an attraction for racehorse owners to board there, or to train a horse to drive, etc)
Of course, googling it comes up with these famous tracks that cost tens of millions of dollars to build... I'm just thinking 1 mile, probably dirt turf, and the standard guard rails (like the ones on the side of the road?). No fancy starting gate or grandstands.
*If you wanted to jump in a racetrack, could you? I would imagine so...
I know, I'm dreamin' big, but hey, why not dream? It's a nicer thing to think about than homework.

Nuggets center JaVale McGee, no stranger to high-flying plays of wonder, flings the ball down into the hoop over Pacers center Ian Mahinmi, then celebrates by pretending to shoveling invisible food in his mouth while running back down the court.The play unfolded early in the second quarter, as Nuggets forward Andre Iguodala pushed the ball upcourt, stopping in the paint to drop off the ball to McGee, who was trailing the play. The Pacers, caught out of position while getting back, allowed McGee a clear path to the hoop, but he veered off a bit to the right, leaping to attempt a dunk over a late-arriving Mahinmi. The ball left McGee's hand before he could really follow through but it wound up landing perfectly through the net as he crashed to the floor.McGee, a 24-year-old seven-footer, competed in the 2011 Slam Dunk Contest but lost to eventual champion Blake Griffin.Check out an animated .GIF of this fling dunk below.

Angelina Jolie Departs From Australia With Six Kids Before the Holidays: Pictures
Brad bound? Angelina Jolie has left Down Under just in time for the holidays! The 38-year-old actress arrived at an airport in Sydney, Australia, on Friday, Dec. 20, with all of her six children in tow. Brad Pitt's fiancee has been busy directing her film Unbroken in the area, while Pitt, newly 50, has been finishing his World War II-era film Fury in London.
PHOTOS: Angie and Brad's family yacht outing
During the departure, the couple's children -- Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, Zahara, 8, Shiloh, 7, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 5 -- stayed close to their famous mom. The Jolie-Pitt clan were seen boarding a private plane while Jolie donned a black top with a matching coat, and kept her brunette locks swept back in a low bun.

Pitt, meanwhile, celebrated his 50th birthday earlier this week on Dec. 18. "He's not doing anything for it and he said he doesn't want any surprises," an insider told Us Weekly of the star hitting the half-century mark. "He really doesn't want to talk about his birthday much."

Though Pitt had no plans to celebrate, the source revealed the Hollywood hunk had plans to meet up with his family for a belated birthday weekend.
"That's going to be the only thing he does," the insider added.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a bacterial infection. This bacteria attacks the soft tissue and the fascia, which is a sheath of tissue covering the muscle. NF can occur in an extremity following a minor trauma, or after some other type of opportunity for the bacteria to enter the body such as surgery.
The Group A Strep infection (flesh eating bacteria) is most common with minor trauma. A mixed bacterial infection is often the cause after surgery.
We can personally tell you about people who developed NF after a C-section, after abdominal surgery, after scratching a rash, after giving birth vaginally, from a tiny scratch, after bumping a leg with a golf bag, after a friendly punch in the arm from a buddy, after a little cut on the finger, after a cut on the foot, after a rug burn, after having a routine blood draw in a physical exam, after a broken arm, and after a broken leg, and from no known trauma at all.
In order for someone to contract NF, the bacteria must be introduced into the body. This occurs either from direct contact with someone carrying the bacteria, or because of the bacteria being carried by the person him or herself.
Group A Strep is the same bacteria that causes strep throat. However, there are various strains of the bacteria, some of which are more powerful than others (with stronger m-protein serotypes). If the
right set of conditions are present
, this is when the necrotizing fasciitis occurs.
The "right" set of conditions are:
A person usually has to have a contusion, abrasion, cut, or opening in the skin in order to have the bacteria enter, however, spontaneous cases where no apparent injury can be found, are also reported.
They have to come into contact with the bacteria, either through direct contact with a carrier, or because the bacteria is present on the person.
It usually is an invasive strain or serotype, of the strep.
There are
higher risk groups
for contracting NF, however, a person does not need any predisposing conditions to be prone to developing necrotizing fasciitis. It can happen to anyone...young, old, adult, child, any race, any size, healthy or not. No one is out of danger. You do not need to be immunodepressed to get this.
The name "flesh-eating-bacteria" is a little sensational, but essentially, this is what the bacteria appears to do. It gets into the body, quickly reproduces, and gives off toxins and enzymes that destroy the soft tissue and fascia, which quickly becomes gangrenous (dead). This gangrenous tissue must be surgically removed to save the life of the patient. The bacteria also stealthily hides itself from the body's innate immune system, allowing it to spread rapidly along tissue planes. NF causes excruciating pain, dangerously low blood pressure, confusion, high fever, and severe dehydration due to the toxins poisoning the body. Unfortunately, NF sometimes occurs beneath the skin with few symptoms to explain the victim's symptoms. This results in a great many cases of misdiagnosis.
If NF is detected during the early stages (before toxic shock), the need to surgically remove skin and soft tissue can be "relatively" small, with removal of flesh and subcutaneous tissue, and fat only. The bacteria usually does not attack muscle or bone (although it can happen). In more advanced cases (and this is often) major limb amputation is necessary.
Death from this condition is not uncommon, however many people are successfully treated.
In addition to the tissue decay, the bacteria causes the rest of the body's organs to go into systemic shock. This may result in respiratory failure, heart failure, low blood pressure and renal failure. Basically, every system of the body can fail as a result of the severe infection and toxicity of the system.
NF is not a reoccurring condition. Once treated, the bacteria is eradicated from the body. During treatment, surgical sites are left open for a sufficient period of time and reinspected to be sure that the remaining tissue is no longer being destroyed. When physicians are confident that the infection has been stopped, the wounds are closed, typically with skin grafting. Then the recovery process starts which involves lengthy physical therapy, and long-term psychological, emotional and spiritual recovery. NF is truly a devastating disease.
When the infection is caused by the lightening fast Group A Strep bacteria, the specific bacteria which causes the
flesh-eating disease,
people can go from perfectly healthy to death's door in a matter of days. Other cases of NF, caused by a mixed bag of bacteria, can be slower moving and less deadly. In all cases, however, prompt treatment is essential in this condition. It is one of the fastest spreading infections known, so time is the most important factor in survival.

When it comes to outdoors hazards, the risk of being struck by lightning is usually low.
But Carl Mize has been hit by lightning six times and survived.
When it comes to outdoors hazards, the risk of being struck by lightning is usually low.
But Carl Mize has been hit by lightning six times and survived.
Mize, 53, of Noble, never has taken a direct hit from a bolt, but he has been zapped by volts from nearby strikes. He has been knocked unconscious and felt severe soreness in his muscles while recovering. But he has no permanent injuries he knows of.
"Never think that a storm is too far away," Mize said. "Every time I've been hit the storms have seemed far away, but lightning can travel."
July is the month when the most lightning strikes are reported.
Rick Smith, the warning coordination meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Norman, said lightning is a natural phenomenon that may be "low probability for people but a high-impact event."
"A lot of people think it's not going to happen to me," Smith said.
Fishing is the activity that can put a person at the greatest risk for a lightning strike. Lightning can strike the water, a boat, a tree or a pole nearby and send a sideways shock to those nearby.
The most basic advice is to go indoors during a thunderstorm.
"If you hear thunder or see lightning, get inside," Smith said. "That's the absolute way not to get struck by lightning."
So far this year, seven deaths from lightning strikes have been reported nationwide. Two people died in Florida, two in Illinois, and one each in Louisiana, Missouri and Texas. Most victims were near or on water.
In Oklahoma, one lightning death was reported in 2005, two in 2003 and one in 2002.

Just wondering is it normal for people with depression to try and blame others for it? Almost blame the relationship for why they are feeling unhappy rather than the depression itself?
Also when they push you away with cruel harsh words can they be trying to protect you, the one person they actually love so they don't further hurt you? Hoping that you will see how horrible they can be and you would not want anything to do with them?
In reality when they push you away deep down do they really want you around or to be there for them, showing how much we really do love them?

The short answer to your questions is yes. As part of my depression I argue and push at people. Do I do it to hurt them? No. Its part of the self preservation. If you are not there, you cant hurt me. I am angry because I dont know why I depressed, people around me might love me lots and lots. But the illness doesnt let me see it. I feel alone, uncared for even though I know its not true. I push at people. If people try to help, whatever they do seems wrong. All I can suggest is that you dont focus on the negatives. Do all the little sweet things to show you care but dont fawn over them, dont over crowd, space is what they are trying to achieve so they can return to normal. Eventually normality returns and they regret all the negative thoughts they told people that they said to push them away.

Ok, thanks for the reply. So even though they can be rather nasty or say such cruek things to keep you awaythey are trying to protect themselves and you??
Even though they say these things to keep you away they most probably want you to keep touch at a distance maybe? until they are ready to come round again?

It is that way for me. I dont want to hurt any more and if my friend isnt getting through to me, I push them away. I will push them with anything that niggles at me. Everything gets blown out of proportion. If you are late, then I will say things like you dont care, that would rather be somewhere else because you werent there when I needed you. The self loathing kicks in because you know it isnt true, but you hate yourself, you feel unloved and worthless and your friend wasnt there so they must feel the same way about yourself as you do. You eventually convince yourself you are better off not knowing them. Which of course isnt true. I hope by trying to explain my thought process, it might shed some light on why your friend does what they do.

If you do push people away with cruel words do you actually mean them? Or is it more you don't realise what you are saying during the depression?

These are very insightful questions you are asking.
I agree with Kate but would add that I suspect it's not so much that they mean/don't mean the nasty things they say.
I suggest you look at the nasty words more as an expression of what's going on inside a tortured mind rather than being about you.
So if they say something accusatory like 'you don't care about me', the thought process going on inside is probably something like 'I'm disgusting, how could anyone care about me'.
It's also a symptom of 'black and white' thinking - the depressed person will notice every negative little thing and see it as evidence to reinforce the belief that they are flawed and unlovable, while overlooking all the nice things you've done for them.
A tactic would be to try asking questions when they make a hurtful statement - eg 'so you feel like you aren't being cared for? Put the focus back on them.
It's not fair though that you should be a punching bag - absorbing all these blows is painful for you - so you may wish to gently draw some boundaries of what is acceptable/not acceptable behaviour. eg say that you feel hurt when the comments are made, can you discuss things later more calmly, and that you're willing to listen and work things through.

It's just so difficult with the cruel things they say. My partner of 13 years has left me again for the third time in 2 years!! Each time she does it by letter or text and says some real hurtful things which she would never ever say. Each time so far we have gotten back and she is so sorry and declares her undying live for me again. I should be used to it and I do understand but when the words come from them you can't help but think that is what they mean when they say it's over and I don't live you etc etc. Do they not realise the hurt they cause the people they really love? Why no contact at all and finish the relationship at the time? Do they really want me to make some contact occasionally until they are ready to come back? Maybe a nice letter, text? Flowers sent??

you sound like a really devoted person and that you are really committed to this relationship.
do you ever get to express how you feel to her though? or are you supressing all your own feelings and wishes all the time?
how about telling her by letter that you love her but her behaviour makes you feel very hurt?
if she is depressed her mind will be focussed on herself but she needs to realize that there is another person in the relationship and that her behaviour has a hurtful impact on you.

Yes she knows as I told her the last time she broke up with me and she does realise how bad she has been after she comes back . She said last time she was in a very bad place and pushed me away with cold cruel words so I would see what a terrible person she is and I would move on. But when we get back all the love comes flooding back with all the good emotions. I can only presume it's the depression again as it's all too similar. I can tell when it's coming on for months. The withdrawal, the lack of any communication etc then the sudden break up by text and not wanting anything to do with me period. Why do they think they are protecting you when they are actually hurting you?

Sounds like she will come back then.
I hope she seeks treatment while she is away??
To avoid this happening in future, the only thing I can think of to suggest is getting her to work on some cognitive techniques to distance herself from all the nasty thoughts.
She needs to realise that the horrible thoughts are not really 'her', they are just thoughts and they will pass, like bad weather.
ie currently she is thinking "I'm a horrible person", and this makes her feel bad as she will identify with the thought as being true. But if she can develop skills in stepping back and thinking objectively that "I'm having the thought that I'm a horrible person" then with time this may separate her from the emotional charge around the thoughts.
Try reading The Happiness Trap by Dr Russ Harris. It's the best self help book I've ever read.
Perhaps you could let her know somehow that you are there for her when she emerges from this dark place.
