Program October 15, 2015
Beneficial Bats
by Shari Blisset-Clark
As Halloween approaches, bats are used as an icon of spookiness, but bats actually contribute to a healthy, balanced environment. Shari Blisset-Clark's fascination with bats began more than 20 years ago when she partnered with Bat Conservation International as a bat house researcher. She has since built and erected many successful bat houses throughout Florida and is licensed to keep bats for education. Shari comes to us from Brevard County, where she serves on the boards of Bat Belfries, the Florida Bat Conservancy, the Florida Native Plant Society, and the Brevard Botanical Garden. She focuses on Florida native bats only.
For the October Orange Audubon Society program, Shari will debunk the common myths that give rise to unfounded fear of these flying mammals and attendees will have an opportunity to meet two of the most common species in Central Florida.
Join us for a fascinating program, suitable for children and all ages. For directions to Leu Gardens visit:http://www.leugardens.org/plan/directions.htm
Return to the Roost--Hay Ride
November 14, 2015
"Return to the Roost" a hay ride type field trip at Orlando Wetlands Park (OWP) is a wonderful way to see the far reaches of this beautiful place. Even more exciting is a ride at sunset, in which you can watch wading birds "return to the roost." As it darkens, alligator eyes shine, and night sounds will fill your senses.
This event on Saturday, November 14th, 4:30–6:30 PM, is a fund-raiser for Orange Audubon Society. Cost is $30 per person with 20 persons maximum. OWP is located at 25155 Wheeler Rd, Christmas, FL 32709.
Contact Teresa Williams at email@example.com or (407) 644- 0796 to register. Send a check to: Orange Audubon Society, P.O. Box 941142, Maitland, FL 32794-1142.

Orlando as Premier City
to visit in 2015
according to The New York Times
Orlando is the premier spot to visit in 2015 (The New York Times, 2015), but it is more than Disney with 83 parks in Orange County alone, and its natural wonders are endless. Something is always happening!

"Misrepresentation "
- Work/Life Balance
- Career Opportunities
- Comp & Benefits
- Senior Management
The residents (people that actually live there) appreciate the staff. The employeees are very friendly, despite being understaffed and definitely overworked.
Management lacks organization in multiple areas, that result in lack of communication that causes stress on all employees. There was absolutely zero orientation to the position. All they offered was a guided tour of the facility, and they were no forthcoming about the actual demands of the job - I think because they did not have a clue as to what was actually involved. I could not help but feel that it was misrepresented entirely.
Advice to Management
There has simply got to be communication between management and staff in order to accomplish their mission statement. This can not be done if employees are not oriented properly and not given adequate time to learn the position and all the aspects that the job entails.

My previous 50 year old wall oven looked better the new one. This one sticks out about 2" from the wall with a gap of almost a half inch between the oven door and the oven opening when closed. From the side you can see the metal door mechanism. A few times the delayed timer has not gone on when programmed and now the clock refuses to stay set at correct time.

Sleek oven works well
By cynjeong
from Undisclosed
Comments about GE 24" Single Electric Wall Oven Black Finish:
Easy to use, looks great, and outside is easy to clean. I give it 4 stars due to the fact that it's smaller than my previous 45 year old oven (also GE) - slightly smaller in depth and width. I can't use some of the baking sheets that I previously used. I don't cook with an oven that much so it's not too big a deal but it would have been have the room if needed. I'm not sure if all new ovens are this size.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Fabulous featuires and ease of operation
By Cindy44
from Orange, MA, United States
This new wall oven replaced my original GE wall oven. I am completely excited with my decision to stay solidly with GE. My new GE oven is extremely easy to use and the operating controls are wonderfully easy to understand and set. The baking results are fabulous. Thank you for maintaining the extreme and expected high quality of this fine product.
Nice look
By momtimes2
from Clanton, AL, United States
It is very nice looking. It goes with my other stainless appliances.
Very Efficient
By GPP16
from Toluca, IL
The oven preheats quickly and it's nice to cook food at the temperature as directed. Only disappointment is that the interior of the oven is smaller than our old oven was. Still happy with the performance of the oven overall!
Simple but Efficient
By CcMan
from West Point, MS, United States
If you want a small oven (we are retired and don't need a large oven) without bells and whistles you don't use this is it. Be sure to check your opening size as this is a small oven.
Looks great.
By sharonelayne
from Casselberry, FL, United States
This is my second GE wall oven. The black glass on the previous one broke, so I have replaced it with stainless steel. GE makes very good products and even the previous oven worked well. When my dishwasher dies, I will replace it with GE.
Works great
By Silver Spurs
It fit into the area and works fine. The only problem is when you look into the window on the door you see unpainted galvanized metal. I took the door apart and painted it black so the problem solved. Easy to clean and the cord was long enough to wire into my 220.
Easy to use.
By DeeKay
from Yucca Valley, CA
Warms to temperature quickly. Easy dash panel to use. Very little heat, if any, comes into kitchen. Bakes evenly.
Great Features
By wllibera
from Pittsburgh, PA
I love my new electric wall oven. Heats quickly, bakes evenly and very easy to use.

A book review of "I Lost It At the Video Store" by Tom Roston
"The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas" has dinosaurs that lumber along crushing everything in their path. The movie's screenplay works sort of the same way. Think of every possible pun involving stones, rocks and prehistoric times, and link them to a pea-brained story that creaks and groans on its laborious march through unspeakably obvious, labored and idiotic humor.
This is an ideal first movie for infants, who can enjoy the bright colors on the screen and wave their tiny hands to the music. Children may like it because they just plain like going to the movies. But it's not delightful or funny or exciting, and for long stretches, it looks exactly like hapless actors standing in front of big rocks and reciting sitcom dialogue.
The story isn't a sequel to "The Flintstones" (1994), but a prequel, recalling those youthful days when Fred and Wilma Flintstone first met and fell in love. Fred is portrayed this time by Mark Addy, the beefiest of the guys in "The Full Monty." His best pal Barney Rubble is played by Stephen Baldwin, who recites his lines as if he hopes Fred will ask him to come out and play, but is afraid he won't. As the movie opens, Fred and Barney have gotten jobs at the rock quarry and settled down to a lifetime of quarrying rocks, which their world does not seem to need any more of, but never mind.
Meanwhile, in a parallel plot, Wilma Slaghoople (Kristen Johnston) resists the schemes of her mother (Joan Collins) to get her to marry the millionaire Chip Rockefeller (get it?). Fleeing her rich neighborhood, she ends up working in a drive-in restaurant (Bronto King) with Betty O'Shale (Jane Krakowski), and soon the two of them have met Fred and Barney.
There's instant chemistry, and the two couples grind off to a weekend in Rock Vegas. The jealous Chip (Thomas Gibson) is waiting there to foil romance and get his hands on the Slaghoople fortune. His co-conspirator is a chorus line beauty named Roxie (Second City grad Alex Meneses), whose boulders are second to none. The Vegas sequence is livened by a soundtrack rendition of "Viva Las (and-or Rock) Vegas," by Ann-Margret.
Another story line involves Gazoo (Alan Cumming), an alien who arrives in a flying saucer. He looks exactly like a desperate measure to flesh out an uninteresting plot with an uninteresting character. The movie would be no better and no worse without Gazoo, which is a commentary on both Gazoo and the movie, I think.
The pun, it has been theorized, is the lowest form of humor. This movie proves that theory wrong. There is a lower form of humor: jokes about dinosaur farts. The pun is the second lowest form of humor. The third lowest form is laborious plays on words, as when we learn that the Rock Vegas headliners include Mick Jagged and the Stones.
Minute by weary minute the movie wends its weary way toward its joyless conclusion, as if everyone in it is wearing concrete overshoes, which come to think of it they may be. The first film was no masterpiece, but it was a lot better than this. Its slot for an aging but glamorous beauty queen was filled by Elizabeth Taylor. This time it is Joan Collins. As Collins is to Taylor, so "The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas" is to "The Flintstones."

ok so I am experiencing what I think I experienced the last time I got a BFP, but I was only paying attention to my cycles for like 2 months so this may happen every cycle and I didnt realize. I am on CD 19 of a 25-27 day cycle, and I think I O'ed between CD 12 and 14. So I am 5-7 DPO I think. For awhile, over a week, I have little twinges that I have always noticed in my cycles and assumed was O pains. Well today I had them again but they felt different, more towards the middle of my pelvic area instead of on one side or the other. They did seem to favor one side but not in a huge noticeable way. They have also been sharper, more pinch like then twinge and I am also having a pinching pain in my back. I get lower back pain alot but this is more to one side and a little sharper then normal. I dont remeber the back pain last time but I want to say that I remember the pinching. So has anyone felt ovulation and does this sound like it?
does anyone feel implantation?

I'm fairly certain that I felt my first child's implantation. It was a very sharp pain in my side for about 5-10 minutes. It felt like someone poking me with a needle. I never had any implantation bleeding, though. Not everyone does.
They say to look for implantation bleeding, then right under it, they say that only about 20% of women ever experience it.
I also believe that if you are intune enough with your body that you can feel anything! Even your brain thinking... Lol, okay maybe not everything like that
Good luck for your POAS day, and praying you get your BFP
I believe i felt the implantation with my first. I never did get the the implantation bleeding. I had it about a week after we DTD. Wasn't looking at when i ovulated then so i don't know how many days past ovoulation i was.
Jackie Wife to Matt 6/16/2007
Emma Ann 10/21/2008
Isabelle Jayme 12/12/2011
I can tell you with 100% certainty that yes I did feel it happening. I had cramping and then 3 days later I had a small bit of old blood. The blood came 7days past O time. So yes I felt it.
I was temping , OPK, and writing down all my stuff.
The cramping never stopped and lasted for me till about 6 weeks.
After reading your signs.... It's to hard to say. It really run's so close to pre-period signs.
When I had cramping it was kinda painful. So if your having something really different than normal it could be!
But it's so hard to say.
Well today not much has happened. So maybe that was it?! Cant wait to test

I think I've might have felt it today too. I was laying down with DD to put her to sleep and I got a little crampy and pinchy in my lower abdomin. I also was EXTREMELY dizzy and nausous this afternoon...
I'm hoping it's not all in my head, because then i'm a loon LOL
hope it was implanting for you!
oh and i'm about 11dpo today :)

A highly offensive term referring to a Spanish-speaking person from Mexico, Central or South America, Spain, or Portugal
by benito October 12, 2003
A highly offensive term referring in a derogatory manner to a Hispanic person, i.e. born or descendant of natives of Spain and/or any Spanish-speaking country or territory in Central America, South America or the Caribbean.
You spics are worthless -- why can't you learn English like everyone else?
by Juan Jimenez August 27, 2005
A derogatory comment towards people of hispanic decent.
How come Hispanic people are allowed to say 'nigga', but if somebody says the word 'spic', they get stabbed?
by iHEARTsasuke August 18, 2006
An offensive word used to describe hispanic people. Comes from a shortening of the word "hispanic".
Those dumb spics are trying to take our jobs
by Patrick Hanna August 02, 2005
Never meant to be an offensive word. Actually when a Hispanic person was to be arrested it and no one could understand anything they were saying, The cops would write, "Spanish Person In Custody" (SPIC). It Was never meant to be offensive, just a description. People just take that and run with it
Cops: "We Have a Spic"
by eckz December 25, 2007
This is actually an acronim. It meand Spanish Person In Custody!
There are a lot of spics in jail.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
The Winter Classic And Detroit
by Paul on 12/31/13 at 10:39 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Damien Cox of the Toronto Star,
So you arrive in Detroit — a.k.a. Murder City, a.k.a. Pottersville, a.k.a Bankruptcy USA — and you expect to see desolation and decay and decline, a city in chaos.
Except it isn't that way at all.
Well, it wasn't on Monday night, when a pleasant (if frigid) walk back from Comerica Park to the Renaissance Centre on the Detroit River, interrupted by a lovely dinner at a seafood spot with live music, took a couple of media folks through about 10 blocks of what seemed to be anything but a dead downtown.
There were Christmas lights, lots of them, and a variety of evening spots lit up for the evening. Nothing threatening, no sign of trouble. It was a walk you might not have recommended 15 or 20 years ago, but now felt more than safe.
In other words, anything but a bankrupt city hurtling downhill.

Reliance Chairman Mukesh Ambani and BP Chief Executive Officer Bob Dudley met India's Oil Minister Veerappa Moily in New Delhi to share the plan, according to the statement.

I grow them. Good flavour, early, prolific, but once they are over that is it for that year. So I grow repeat varieties too.
Thanks, Dove. BIL is starting to regain consciousness and trying to ask where he is. Not on dialysis any more, kidneys seem to have recovered. But they don't know yet how much damage was caused by the lack of blood.
I always use antihistamine straight away and if that doesn't work, hydrocortisone.
Waiting for chicken and veg pie to cook.
Did a bit of gardening late this afternoon then there was a thunderstorm. My border collie follows me, like Monty's Nigel, he is terrified of thunder. The chap who cuts the logs for the woodburner has cut my hornbeam hedge hurray! I usually do it, at least 90 metres of double hedge, hate it, but I have tendonitis in my shoulder.
I don't, I love it.
I've just looked at that link from the RHS and seen it's group one, light or no pruning. I have an old one which had got very straggly so I researched it and found they can be pruned hard, so I cut mine in half! It's done much better since.
That's a cotinus coggygria. https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/details?plantid=559 When they are pruned they make lovely fresh new growth and they can be pruned quite hard.
Well done Daryl, super job, looks lovely.
Well done baza, what a difference, looks great.
Morning all.
Loads of tulips to plant. My children gave me lots for my birthday. We had the rain that DD had too. Poured in the evening. But the forecast for the week is now better than it was.
But must muck out horse shelter before next hay delivery , aching shoulder coming up!
Have watched it all now. The right person went and I hope the other right person goes next week.

I could not, at any age,
"be content to take my place by the fireside and simply look on. Life was meant to be lived. Curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life."
~Eleanore Roosevelt
Dear Hospice,
"Thank you and your team for all you did for Bob and me. It made it all so much easier. We grew to love the two volunteers you sent. Their approach to Bob was different and exactly right. They were so unstinting with their time. Two remarkable human beings! Thank you for staying in touch."

Mission Statement
Providing practical, emotional and spiritual support to individuals and their loved ones through the stages of dying, death and bereavement.
Hospice palliative care aims to make the last months of life comfortable, peaceful and dignified for patients and their caregivers by providing care, support, respite and advocacy. Our trained Hospice volunteers work as part of a caregiving team that could include community home nursing, doctors, hospital and facility staff, social workers and spiritual leaders.

Lightyear Capital LLC Key Developments
Lightyear Capital LLC has acquired a majority equity stake in Wealth Enhancement Group, LLC. Wealth Enhancement Group will be a platform for further acquisitions. Mark Vassallo, Managing Partner of Lightyear Capital, commented, "We are pleased to have completed our acquisition of a majority equity stake in Wealth Enhancement Group.

Interstate National Corporation, a Golden Gate Capital portfolio company, is in discussions to sell itself for at least $200 million to Lightyear Capital LLC, according to people familiar with the discussions. Negotiations are still ongoing between Golden Gate and Lightyear and the deal may still fall apart, the people said, asking not to be named because they were not authorized to speak on the record. One hurdle in the lengthy auction process has been legal proceedings related to "robocalls," the people said, without giving details. Royal Bank of Canada has been working on the sale of Interstate National. The auction attracted other private equity bidders including Corsair Capital LLC and ABRY Partners, LLC, the people said. Representatives for RBC, Golden Gate and Corsair declined to comment, reported Reuters. Representatives for Interstate National, and ABRY did not immediately respond to a request for comment, reported Reuters.
Lightyear Capital LLC announced that it has recently appointed Martin Sullivan as an Operating Partner. Mr. Sullivan will draw upon his decades of experience to work with Lightyear and the management teams of businesses within Lightyear's portfolio.

When Apple Music first launched three months ago, all of us here at Macworld immediately signed up and started grooving to its three-month free trial. (That is, until Prince's catalog disappeared.) Most of us were already subscribing to other music streaming services, but since Apple Music had a long lead-in period, there was no harm in double-dipping in the musical honey jar.
Our initial reactions were strong, and favorable. We loved its personalized playlists, Siri integration, and the always changing "For You" section. We were thrilled to have a place to legally stream 1989. We even started to enjoy...| Read more »

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
On June 28, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) formalized new rules to codify its informal procedures for companies completing transactions that require US merger control filings pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act (HSR). Most transactions involving assets, sales or shares valued at more than $70.9 million are subject to HSR which, in most instances, requires the parties to observe a 30-day waiting period before a transaction can be consummated. Consistent with its current procedures, parties may withdraw their premerger notification filing by notifying the FTC and the Antitrust Division in writing. Further, the FTC has traditionally allowed parties seeking to pursue an acquisition to withdraw a pending HSR filing and resubmit it within two business days in order to restart the waiting period without having to pay another filing fee.
Under the codified rules, if the parties wish to pursue the acquisition, new notifications and a new filing fee will be required, unless the filing occurs within two business days of the withdrawal. A new waiting period also must be observed prior to consummation of the acquisition. The procedure may only be used once and only under the following circumstances: (i) the proposed acquisition does not change in any material way; (ii) the resubmitted notification is recertified and relevant parts of the submission are updated; and (iii) the resubmitted notification is refiled within two business days of the withdrawal.
The most significant amendments relate to the creation of automatic withdrawals of HSR filings for an incomplete tender offer and a terminated definitive agreement, both of which require disclosure to the Securities and Exchange Commission. According to the FTC, when these circumstances occur, the transactions have become merely "hypothetical." Accordingly, the new rules require that any associated HSR filings submitted with respect to these two types of transactions are automatically deemed to be withdrawn on the date of the SEC filing. The party submitting the SEC filing must notify the FTC and the US Department of Justice (DOJ) in writing when such filing is made. An HSR filing is not automatically withdrawn if the applicable HSR waiting period has expired or terminated, and the parties have not entered into a timing agreement with the FTC or DOJ to delay the closing.

Christian Unity and the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement
Early in the life of the new Episcopalian community call the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement, Father Paul Wattson, the founder, was committed to the ministry of "at-one-ment," that is, prayer and work for the reconciliation of Christians and their churches, making them at-one. As far as he was concerned, the members of the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement would pray and work for the fulfillment of Jesus' prayer that all may be one so that the world may believe. Christian Unity and Christian Mission would go hand in hand, thus forming the goal of the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement.
The Friars of the Atonement Ecumenical Ministries
The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity
Since 1966, the Faith and Order Commission of the World Council of Churches and the Vatican Secretariat (now Council) for Promoting Christian Unity began collaborating on a common international text for worldwide usage. Since 1968 these international texts, which are based on themes proposed by ecumenical groups around the world, have been developed, adapted and published for use in the United States by the Graymoor Ecumenical and Interreligious Institute.

The Seven Sins of Memory: How the Mind Forgets and Remembersby Daniel Schacter
"[M]ost erudite....[Schacter] considers the seven ways in which human memory can be said to be faulty. As well as ordinary forgetting, Schacter lists the "sins" of absent-mindedness (when we forget to do the things we meant to do); blocking (when we can't quickly retrieve information); persistence (when we cannot shake a traumatic event or just a nagging tune from our minds); and then misattribution; suggestibility; and bias." John McCrone, The Times Literary Supplement (read the entire Times Literary Supplement review)
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Daniel L. Schacter, chairman of Harvard University's Psychology Department and a leading expert on memory, has developed the rst framework that describes the basic memory miscues we all encounter. Just like the seven deadly sins, the seven memory sins appear routinely in everyday life. Although we may hate these difculties, as Schacter notes, they're surprisingly vital to a keen mind.
Schacter, whose previous trade book, Searching For Memory, was called "splendidly lucid" (The New Yorker), offers vivid examples of the memory sins — for example, the absent-mindedness that plagued both a national memory champion and a violinist who forgot that he had placed a priceless Stradivarius on top of his car before driving off. The author also delves into the recent research — such as imaging that shows memories being formed in the brain — that has led him to develop his framework. Together, the stories and the scientific findings examined in The Seven Sins of Memory provide a fascinating new look at our brains, and at what we more generally think of as our minds.
The Seven Sins of Memory is a groundbreaking work that will provide great reassurance to everyone, from twenty-somethings who find their lives are too busy, to baby boomers who mutter about "early Alzheimer's, " to senior citizens who worry about how much (or how little) they can recall.
"Drawing upon recent neuroimaging research that allows a glimpse of the brain as it learns and remembers, Schacter guides his readers on a fascinating journey of the human mind." Library Journal
"Anyone who has recently forgotten a fact or name may find much of interest in this well-documented, informative book." Publishers Weekly
"Compelling in its science and its probing examination of everyday life...a delightful book, lively and clear." Chicago Tribune
"A lively and well-written survey." Kirkus Reviews
A groundbreaking work by one of the world's foremost memory experts, THE SEVEN SINS OF MEMORY offers the first framework that explains common memory vices — and their surprising virtues. In this intriguing study, Daniel L. Schacter explores the memory miscues that occur in everyday life: absent-mindedness, transience, blocking, misattribution, suggestibility, bias, and persistence. Schacter illustrates these concepts with vivid examples — case studies, literary excerpts, experimental evidence, and accounts of highly visible news events such as the O.J. Simpson verdict, Bill Clinton's grand jury testimony, and the search for the Oklahoma City bomber. He also delves into striking new scientific research, giving us a glimpse of the fascinating neurology of memory. Together, the stories and the scientific results provide a new look at our brains and at what we more generally think of as our minds.
Winner of the William James Book Award
A groundbreaking work by one of the world's foremost psychologists that delves into the complex behavior of memory.
In this fascinating study, Daniel L. Schacter explores instances of what we would consider memory failure—absent-mindedness, transience, blocking, misattribution, suggestibility, bias, and persistence—and suggests instead that these miscues are actually indications that memory is functioning as designed. Drawing from vivid scientific research and creative literature, as well as high-profile events in which memory has figured significantly (Bill Clinton's grand jury testimony, for instance), The Seven Sins of Memory provides a more nuanced understanding of how memory and the mind influence each other and shape our lives.
About the Author
Daniel L. Schacter is chairman of the Psychology Department at Harvard University. He has previously written Searching for Memory, which received praise as a New York Times Notable Book of the Year and one of Library Journal's Best Science and Technology Books of the Year. The book won the American Psychological Association's William James Book Award and received outstanding reviews in The New Yorker and Publishers Weekly. Schacter was the keynote speaker at the American Psychological Association's 2000 conference and has appeared on 20/20, NBC's Sunday Today, the Discovery Channel, the Learning Channel, and, with Alan Alda, on PBS's Scientific American Frontiers.

I am studying for a job interview and was reviewing trees, I have no problem when traversing them but I got to a question I haven't been able to figure the right answer to:
Write a function that returns a node in a tree given two parameters: pointer to the root node and the inorder traversal number of the node we want to return. The only information stored in the tree is the number of children for each node.
So far, I haven't even been able to figure why I would care of the information stored in the tree (the number of children). Other than that if we assume there's a tree like such:
4 7
3 1 4
then the Inorder traversal would be
341547but I can't figure out the code to return the node I want (for sake of argument I'm assuming the inorder traversal number is 2 - meaning I want the node of value 1).
I tried doing a recursive traversal but I end up screwing the inner counter I had so I tried a different approach and just tried to put everything on a stack but I can't figure how to correctly do so. So far I have:
public int findNode(root, position){
Stack<Integer> s = new Stack<Integer>();
cNode = root; //cNode = current Node
while(cNode.left != null)
cNode = cNode.left;
while(cNode.right != null)
cNode = cNode.right;
//stuck here.
The recursive approach was easier but I can't figure how to check if I have the # I'm looking for:
public int findNode(root, position){
cNode = root;
if(cNode != null){
findNode(cNode.left, position);
findNode(cNode.right, position);
I know this traverses the tree but it still doesn't do exactly what I want. Any help would be appreciated.

That's still stretching the story out over a third movie. My worry is that they'll lose the core story in all this new material. I mean, what else is there in the Appendices that could apply to

Debunking the Sandy hook conspiracy video, point-by-point
Poster Handle
Post Content
Since no one has really taken the time to debunk this here you go:
First off the guy that created this video is Alex J.Now that that's out of the way let's look at the content of the video...
Theory 1: The first thing the video tries to allege is that there is a second shooter. They love to grab early media footage and then use that as "evidence" of their claims, as if the media's first reporting is somehow golden. Odd that conspiracy theorists distrust the media, then turn around and use its raw reporting claims as evidence. Anyway, you can easily google and figure out who the guy in the woods was.
link to www.youtube.com (secure)
He is the father of a student there and the athletic director at the highschool. He was on his way to the school to help make gingerbread houses with 1st graders when he heard the shots. He was unarmed, arrested, detained, questioned, and let go. The story of the guy in the woods was a dead end, so the media dropped it. That is the problem with the 24 hour news cycle, they will report any lead they get before sorting out facts. However, this is hardly evidence of a conspiracy.
The video even makes the ridiculous claim that since the guy was sitting in the FRONT of the police car, that he must have some "crazy" credentials. Yeah, what is more likely...that this guy was a concerned father or that he was a man with some "crazy" credentials on a black ops mission to shoot up a school but he just didn't have the skills to properly vacate, and so he ended up getting himself captured by lowly local law enforcement, AND broadcast on national tv, potentially exposing his super secret black op? C'mon.
Theory 2: The gun discrepancy. This can be chalked up to contradictory reporting, which is going to happen when the media competes with itself to be the first one to break any new details. There have already been articles clearing up the discrepancies: [
link to edition.cnn.com
Theory 3: The nurse is fake and does not exist. This is completely false, and has been debunked with evidence: [
link to www.youtube.com (secure)
Theory 4: The laughing/crying father. This means absolutely nothing. No one can judge how a father copes with the loss of his daughter, and it's offensive that people are criticizing him for it. I have been to several funerals, I have witnessed family members and friends switch in and out of laughter and tears. They think of fond memories of the one they lost, they tell stories, they laugh, and they cry. People grieve in different ways. We do not have the right to criticize his reaction, and it's not evidence of a conspiracy.
Theory 5: Emillie Parker is not dead. This is the most absurd thing I have seen so far in the video. The video alleges not only that the girl is not dead, but that the parents were so stupid they brought out the wrong sister for the photo op. What? Do people honestly believe that? [
link to www.youtube.com (secure)
] It's a picture of her sister. Obviously. They look alike because, you know, they're sister's. This guy uses the same photoshop trick as the conspiracy video and gets the same effect. [
link to i.imgur.com
Theory 6: One piece of footage of the crime scene does not show many ambulances and shows no children. The author claims this means this was all staged. He goes on to say that only one ambulance was there the whole time and they quickly blocked off all exits. The problem with this is twofold. Firstly, there are several pictures of multiple ambulances: [
link to www.politico.com
] Secondly, this footage that the videos author is commenting on is likely taken well after the shooting took place, which easily explains why there aren't a bunch of ambulances around and no one is panicking. More things taken out of context because they fit the authors narrative.
Theory 7: Time stamps on the webpage set up for donations state the page was created before the shootings took place. Google search results do not always accurately reflect the date the content was published. Example) Here is a date restrictive search of sandy hook ( [
link to www.google.com (secure)
] ), listing all articles that appear to be published before the shooting took place. Well shit, according to google this there are articles and videos from these dates talking about the shooting: Jan 14, 2012 , Jun 19, 2012 , Sept 16, 2012 ..well before the shooting took place. Debunked.
I don't necessarily believe in this, but i think its good to present both sides of the story, so that people can get a more objective view on the topic.
Anonymous Coward 31145264
cool. but all of this doesn't necessarily prove anything more than the conspiracy videos themselves, we are still left with that unsettled "that's weird" feeling.
edit: also, notice this DEHOAXER guy didn't even bother to touch the gene rosen videos or the medical examiner videos.
