High court: No immunity in case of 15-year-old killed by prop gun used in school play
ST. GEORGE — The Utah Supreme Court ruled Friday that a federal lawsuit brought by the family of a boy who was killed while handling a blank-firing prop pistol before a school play can proceed.
In the ruling, the state's high court found that the Washington County School District, the city and others are not immune from the lawsuit filed by the family of 15-year-old Tucker Thayer. The boy's family is seeking more than $2 million in damages for wrongful death and negligence.
In November of 2008, Tucker was attending Desert Hills High School and taking an elective stagecraft class. His father, Ron Thayer, told the Deseret News Friday that his son was instrumental in building the set for the school's production of "Oklahoma!" due to his experience and skill with power tools.
"He built all the sets and he loved it," Thayer said.
According to the ruling, "theater instructor and school employee Michael Eaton wanted to fire blank bullets from a real gun, rather than use a prop gun. David Amodt, the father of a student involved in the production, offered his Smith & Wesson .38-caliber, six-shot revolver for use in the musical."
Eaton asked Stacy Richan, the school's resource officer from the St. George Police Department, about using the gun because school policy and state law prohibited the use of firearms on school grounds, the ruling states. Richan approved it on the condition that only an adult transport the weapon to and from the school, that the gun would be in a locked container and in an adult's possession when not in use and that only an adult could handle or fire the weapon.
Richan approached the school's vice principal, Robert Goulding, about the presence of the gun on school property and told Goulding that he had authorized its use for the play in the production.
"Goulding agreed with officer Richan's decision and authorized use of the gun during the production, subject to the conditions officer Richan had imposed," the ruling states.
Still, Tucker was allowed to hold and fire the weapon, according to the ruling, and on Nov. 15, 2008, the teenager was in the sound booth when the gun went off.
"The gun discharged near his head, and although the firearm was loaded with a blank cartridge, the muzzle blast drove skull fragments into Tucker's brain," the ruling states. "He died later that night."
Ron and Cathie Thayer sued the city of St. George, the Washington County School District, Richan, Eaton, Goulding, and Amodt in federal court. Ron Thayer said Friday that neither he nor his wife knew their son had access to a gun at the school.
"We found out at the hospital, after we found out he was dead," Ron Thayer said. "They send out permission slips to watch movies but not one parent was notified that a real gun was being used."
The school district, the city and Richan, Eaton, Goulding and Amodt argued that "the conduct of school officials and those acting on the school district's behalf constituted the "issuance ... (of a) permit, license, certificate, approval, order, or similar authorization such that the school district has retained immunity," the ruling states.
The school district conceded that while officials did not "issue a permit, license, certificate, or order allowing the presence of the gun on school grounds," the exception still applies by way of the authorization of the gun being on the school's grounds by the resource officer and vice principal.

Honor Flight
Nearly 150 motorcycle riders donated more than $7,000 during the fourth annual motorcycle benefit ride that the Lexington County Sheriff's Department conducted on Saturday, June 14 to benefit Honor Flight South Carolina.
Lexington County Sheriff A. Lewis McCarty said Sgt. David Amick, who supervises the Chapin Patrol District, coordinated the motorcycle benefit ride. The event featured 139 motorcycle riders riding in areas near Lake Murray.
Honor Flight provides airline and ground transportation for World War II military veterans to visit military memorials in Washington, D.C., McCarty said. Amick previously served in the U.S. Navy.
"As a military veteran, David recognizes the importance of honoring persons who have defended America's freedoms in military combat," McCarty said. "Honor Flight South Carolina enables military veterans who are living on fixed incomes to visit memorials that our nation constructed in order to recognize the sacrifices that have been made by men and women who have served in our nation's armed forces."

The Cosmic 2×4.
First you get a whisper, then a tap on the shoulder, then a blow to the head.
~ Buddhist saying
I know someone who calls the third phase above a "cosmic 2×4." I love the description, but "cosmic" makes it sound like this is coming from somewhere "out there," while actually, the whisper, tap and blow are all generated within you.
If this message were coming from outside, it would make sense that "someone"—you may consider it to be God or a spirit guide—just feels like you can't listen well enough.
But it's really your own sense of self speaking to you each time, telling you that negative intensity within you is rising to higher and higher levels.
This negative intensity is what I call Learned Distress. It's the feeling stored within you that "there's something wrong with me being just as I am."
From conception until the age of two and a half, you absorb this negative feeling from the way people around you feel about being themselves.
Learned Distress becomes stored in your sense of self, which is like a rechargeable battery from which your brain generates every moment of your life automatically, without your conscious input. The negative situations your brain generates feel the same as the moments in which you absorbed your Learned Distress.
Learned Distress is stored by intensity, which rises over time as a result of your brain's natural energy renewal process.
During the day, your brain uses the energy stored in the sense of self to generate the moments of your life. Sleep (specifically, REM sleep, when you dream) is the time when your "rechargeable battery" sense of self gets renewed. The energy it is recharged with is the feeling you've experienced through the day you just lived. And as I said above, the negative moments in that day felt the same as the moments in which you absorbed your Learned Distress.
So, over and over, the feeling that "there is something wrong with me" keeps recharging itself. And, it keeps growing in intensity each night. This is why it either feels harder over time to make good things happen or why things just keep feeling worse.
I always tell my clients that the sense of self is like some kind of pot on a stove.
The recharging process keeps adding more liquid and turning the heat up. Some personality patterns are like an open pot with stuff bubbling up over the edges of the pot all the time. These are people who feel their Learned Distress and experience the effects of it outwardly.
Other patterns are more like a pressure cooker. From the outside, everything looks calm, shiny and under control. But inside, it's a boiling mess. Every once in a while, the liquid and heat levels get so high that the lid can't contain them, and they have a mini- (or not so mini-) explosion.
No matter whether you're the open pot or the pressure cooker, you'll feel these "boil over" points as a message that the negative intensity has risen to a point within you that can't be contained—and, depending on the intensity level, you get a whisper, a tap on the shoulder, or a blow to the head. This can happen in any part of life—physically or emotionally, in your relationships or career, even as something like a car accident.
People show up in my office when the intensity has become too much to handle.
As they work with me to bring their Learned Distress intensity down—as their brain starts to use their sleep time renewal process to ladle liquid out of the pot and turn the heat down—they start to see the effects in their daily lives. They are surprised by how easy some things become without having to battle Learned Distress in some way, so much so that I often have to point it out to them.
Like my client who hiked over a mile just two weeks after knee replacement, to the amazement of her doctors, and despite the fact that she has always hated exercise. Or two clients who recently visited family for the first time in a long time, and who found themselves able to just relax and enjoy being themselves with their family in a completely new way.
Where have you experienced a whisper, tap or blow?
Did it feel like a more intense version of a pattern that you've noticed for a long time, or was it a surprise for you? This can give you a clue to whether your personality pattern is more the open pot or the pressure cooker. Please share in the comments how you've experienced a "cosmic 2×4″ and what the result has been for you.

A long way home
... was completely full, so I was thankful to have an aisle seat which I almost always request. We had two full meals and one snack, the I had the time to watch three movies (I was happy to see Unbroken which I had intended to see for some time – it's quite good), do some reading, and sleep six hours or so. By the time we reached Atlanta, we were all quite eager to deplane.

Caverns and killers
From Roswell we drive to Carlsbad Caverns. The caverns are on the Unesco world heritage list, so we decide to pay them a visit. Located 250 meters under ground are loads of stalagmites, stalactites, draperies, soda straws and popcorn. Soda straws being the tiny ones hanging from the ceiling . In Europe we call them Spaghetti. Popcorn are located on the ground. The cavern is beautiful, but we saw an even more beautiful cavern in Slovenia last year, so were a little spoilt. ...

She may be too young to remember all this, but hopefully all of these pictures will be fun to look at later! Thanks so much to everyone for being a part of Addy's first birthday at home!!

One of the best things was a book from her Granny - a book about Cheerios! Leave it to Granny to find the most perfect gift for our girl! Thanks everyone for loving Addy so much. We are so grateful to have an awesome family.

You look through the window and can see the "X" painted on the street in the very spot JFK was shot. Wow. This is quite surreal ...

nice for the price
THIS IS IN MY LIVING ROOM WITH HIGHER END FURNITURE AND I LOVE IT.Read More
Found this media stand at another store first for over a ******* $$ more. Started looking around and found it on Overstock under a different name, but still it's the same item. Picked this stand because it is a little narrower than most and fits just right into a niche in our family room. Works great! The color is a little lighter than pictured.Read More
nice piece
This was the perfect size, style and functionality for my purpose. When you unpack there is a distinct smell which disappears after a few days. My concern is that the stain was not well applied.There were bubbles in the top and if I was not planning to cover it with a piece of stone I would have returned it.Read More
Solid and beautiful
This is the best TV stand I've bought. The decorative front sliding doors make it a beautiful piece and it was built very solid.Read More
Really nice wood media stand that looks expensive
Overstock delivered product promptly. Packaged well, though there were a couple minor surface flaws / damage to edges of one of the legs, and on the back of the bottom shelf (which was easier to hide). Both bits of damage appeared to have existed before the furniture was shipped (not shipping related, that is). Overstock credited our account for the flaws (approximately 14%), so we felt a little better about it. My husband tells me that putting it together wasn't bad, but that the instructions weren't always clear (he did a fine job in spite of them). We like that the doors are not solid and not glass - we can still use a remote for our components in the cabinet, and don't have to worry about little fingerprints and whatnot. The doors, in their grooves, will rattle if the floor of your home is not rock solid or steady and has any kind of bounce to it - that is one thing that bugs me. Other than that, I would recommend this piece of furniture, and buying it through overstock.Read More
Just what I was looking for.
After I bought the media stand, I saw that it was only supposed to hold a TV up to 42", but I bought it because it was the widest I had seen, to hold a 55" LCD TV. I was ready to go out and purchase some L brackets to strenghten it, if I had to. Thankfully the stand has a warning that it holds 175 lbs., which is way below the weight of the 55" TV and videos combined! The color is an exact match and it is a little taller than most stands, which I also wanted. Great buy!Read More
Overall Saitsfaction Average
Recieved the order within specified time frame. Product was easy to put together. Once it was put together it felt a little unsturdy at first; then I attached the back panel and it got sturdier. I have had the unit one month and it looks like it sags in the middle of the unit - like it lacks a middle support. The tv that sits on the stand is only a 32" screen and isnt very heavy so its very dissapointing that I spent $$$ on this unit and its sagging. I would not recommend this for purchase, at least not at this price.Read More
Easy to put together
The media stand was very heavy when it is delivered and I had the delivery man bring it inside my door. The stand was for my daughter's new home and she actually put it together. She is not real handy with tools and we thought we were going to have to go back to assemble it. She called us on our way back home and said she already had it together and loved it! She has a large flat screen tv and it fits very nicely on top.Read More
Looks great
This is an awesome accent piece and easily holds everything we need for our 42 inch television (it could hold much bigger as well). I am very picky about quality and style and I would highly recommend this to anyone.Read More
Questions & Answers
Thank you for contacting us shelfpins. The shelf pin size are 1/8 inch. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
What is the weight capacity for this piece? I saw a review that mentioned sagging on top due to weight of the TV.
Thank you for your interest. This item holds up to a 42 inch TV. Perhaps the "sagging" is due to that party exceeding this. There are no known issues regarding returns due to insufficient weight capability. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.
The actual box was 97 pounds. It is very sturdy and holds a 52 inch flat screen without sagging.
Important to put back panel on, it helps sturdy the piece.
Thanks for the tip. I did not put the back panel on since it seemed so permanent.There were no holes to receive the screws.

The Wild FeathersView In iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
Formed in 2010 in Austin, Texas around the talents of Ricky Young, Joel King, Taylor Burns and Preston Wimberly, all of whom had served as lead singers in their previous bands, the Wild Feathers came together out of a shared love for all things Tom Petty, Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, the Band, and the Allman Brothers. Preferring the term "American" over Americana, the band eventually re-located to Nashville, where they inked a deal with Warner Bros. and found themselves opening shows for Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson. The band's eponymous major-label debut hit the streets in the summer of 2013. ~ James Christopher Monger

I like it!
I like hearing myself.. but then i realize its telling me to find someone to love so no..
It's kind of distracting, yes.
yes, because it is a sign I am stressed, and if I am stressed I can't sleep, and it is harder to fall asleep hearing the heartbeat, and also, one only think about the heartbeats...
like it somewhat , i'm stll kicking , good sign for now
Only if it happens when I'm lying on my side in bed reading and it kind of thuds in my ear--it's distracting.
yes, it used to drive me crazy, and I have a rapid heartbeat too. Now I take drugs to control it and I havn't heard my heart beat is a long time
why would I not like that? :/ lol. What's even cooler though is sometimes I randomly catch my shirt vibrate/move up and down from it :P
Only when I'm in the 'acute' ward in the hospital,listening to the monitor!

Generally I can't stand conferences in hotels with endless panels and seminars, but this one reported by the Independent in Germany sounds like it was, um, different:
… Read the rest
An alternative medicine conference has ended in chaos in Germany after dozens of delegates took a LSD-like drug and started suffering from hallucinations.
Broadcaster NDR described the 29 men and women "staggering around, rolling in a meadow, talking gibberish and suffering severe cramps".
30 Menschen kaum ansprechbar: #Massenvergiftung in Tagungszentrum #Handeloh-Inzmühlen http://t.co/SAraM2r0St pic.twitter.com/XmjfU99ZQO
— BILD Hamburg (@BILD_Hamburg) September 4, 2015
The group of "Heilpraktikers" was discovered at the hotel where they held their conference in the town of Handeloh, south of Hamburg, on Friday.
More than 150 medical staff, ambulances and police descended on the scene and took the raving delegates to hospital.
The patients, aged between 24 and 56, were found suffering from delusions, breathing problems, racing hearts and cramps, with some in a serious condition, Deutsche Welle reported.

Black Hawk Down 2001 | Movie Watchlist
What should have been a piece of cake wound up being the longest sustained firefight involving U.S. troops since the end of the Vietnam War. On October 3, 1993, an elite team of Delta Force operatives were dropped onto the streets of Mogadishu, Somalia. The target: a two-story building said to contain two high-ranking lieutenants of the ruthless Somali warlord Mohamed Farah Aidid. Aidid's heavily armed militia had been raiding food distribution centers, using famine to starve his countrymen into submission; the recent slaughter of 24 Pakistani soldiers made neutralizing Aidid priority number one for the U.S. military. Securing the perimeter around the building were some 75 U.S. Rangers, lowered onto the streets from the bellies of four Black Hawk helicopters. Waiting a few blocks away was a 12-vehicle convoy that was supposed to hustle everybody out once the grab was made. But no sooner did the Rangers touch ground than the streets erupted in a blizzard of bullets; not only were Aidid's militiamen ready and waiting, but it seemed every other civilian in the quickly assembling mob was carrying an AK-47. The ground convoy became hopelessly lost and, at the height of the confusion, the unthinkable happened: Not one, but two of the circling Black Hawks — imposing symbols of U.S. military might — were hit by rocket-propelled grenades and crashed. Over 100 U.S. soldiers suddenly found themselves trapped in the center of a rapidly escalating nightmare. Black Hawk Down: A Story of Modern War, Mark Bowden's pulse-pounding account of the incident, was both a tribute to the extraordinary courage of the troops and a cautionary tale about U.S. involvement in other nations' civil wars. But director Ridley Scott cannily justifies the operation from the start, opening his film with haunting images of starving Somalis. He's also careful not to depict too much "collateral damage": More than 500 Somalis, many of them unarmed women and children, were killed during the engagement, but we see only ferocious-looking gunmen dying on the streets of "Mog." Once the carnage begins, the film rarely pulls back from street level, so it's often difficult to know exactly what's happening to whom — with their soot-smeared faces half-hidden under helmets, everyone looks pretty much the same. The film, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, no doubt captures some of the horror and the chaos of the actual situation, but it makes for a loud, often confusing, and always bloody two and a half hours.

Taylor Swift better watch out because Amy Schumer's squad is giving new meaning to #SquadGoals.
The final movie trailer (ever?) for the phenomenon that is The Hunger Games trilogy has just appeared online, which should be enough to whet your anticipation for the last movie's release on November 20th.
Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Schumer's circle of friends just got a whole lot cooler.

New movie, new hair.

Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence are literally best friends.
As if we needed any more proof, the duo took over Billy Joel's Chicago concert at Wrigley Field last night (August 27, 2015) where they danced barefoot atop his piano, did the can-can, and flaunted their rock star status as the best backup dancer…
Martin Lawrence is no more. (Well, unless you're the real Martin Lawrence.)…
Okay, don't freak or anything, but all your dreams are coming true and nothing else matters today.
Creative soulmates Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence aren't just friends, they're writing partners. And future co-stars. Yup, they're writing a movie together in which they play sisters.

I woke up this morning thinking it was Sunday since Chris was off yesterday but low and behold it's only Saturday. WEE!!!! Two more days of family time = a very happy mama! Today I am also making my return to my yoga studio here in town. Ever since starting to feel better, we have either been out of town or had prior Saturday plans so I wasn't able to make my favorite yoga class. Not any more. Mat … I am coming for you!
Since I am going to be 21 weeks pregnant tomorrow, it's time to recount my workouts for the week . After all the discussion on a Fit Pregnancy this week I felt more motivated than ever to get out there and kick my booty. I am listening to my body and doing what feels good to me. I was just talking to Chris last night about wondering how much longer I am going to be able to maintain this frequency and intensity and I am excited to see how my journey continues to go.
This week was also Week 5 of Best Body Bootcamp and the strength circuits focused on tri-sets. Also, have you ever done a one-legged wall sit with leg extension? I hadn't and holy cow my quads were burning! Try it sometime.
**Note: Totally realized I wore my For Two Fitness tank twice this week without realizing it. OOPS. Haha.

Betsy Recommends
$26.00ISBN: 9781476798172Availability: On Our Shelves NowPublished: Gallery/Scout Press - September 1st, 2015Bill Clegg's fiction debut is a novel of family extinguished, literally. Deep in the night a house burns to the ground and only June, who couldn't sleep, escapes the conflagration. In the house are her daughter and fiancé, her lover, her ex-husband. All lost. For June, all that's left is grief that's unendurable. For Lydia, the mother of June's lover, only emptiness. June gets in her car and drives. Lydia withdraws into an empty house. But without intentionally reaching out, both women make connections that draw them further out into the world and deeper into the past—while the reason for the fire ticks away in the reader's mind. Bill Clegg has a raw talent for shining light on the workings of people's hearts and heads, and his skillful weaving of their stories into a skein of family makes a sense that is at once harsh and kind of all their collective,connected pasts.

Gruesome Playground Injuries
In a city renowned for its abundance of compelling theater, what's a new company gotta do to make an impression? For starters, they can select emerging playwright Rajiv Joseph's wickedly engrossing Gruesome Playground Injuries as their inaugural production. Infusing amour with gore, the mirthfully morbid love story follows the 30-year relationship of Kayleen and Doug, kindred souls united by a penchant for pain. Relaying a history of lacerations, contusions, and disfigurements via a series of vignettes, the perpetually maimed couple represents the literal embodiment of bleeding hearts. Rather than relying on quirk, however, the story evinces an unforeseen degree of empathy, as demonstrated by last year's memorable staging by the Peanut Butter Factory. Audiences that missed the earlier production (or those looking for an encore) should begin queuing up now, as the newly formed Loudmouth Collective has reunited the principal cast and crew (including leads Leigha Horton and Adam Whisner under the direction of Natalie Novacek) for a remount. Launching in such an attention-grabbing fashion underscores Loudmouth Collective's mission to develop a vibrant theater-going community with creatively daring works staged by some of the finest talents on the Twin Cities theater scene. Insisting that theater should be more than a passive diversion, the troupe makes its proposition with an unflinching ode to the affectionate affliction known as love. (Photo by Justin D.

DEFINITION of 'Through Fund'
A type of target-date retirement fund whose asset allocation includes higher risk and potentially higher return investments "through" the fund's target date and beyond. A "through" fund might make sense for individuals who only need to sell a small percentage of their investments each year to meet their retirement living expenses and who want to continue investing during their retirement years.
BREAKING DOWN 'Through Fund'
The farther away a fund's target date is, the more stocks it will usually hold relative to bonds. A "through" fund takes more risk, for longer, than a "to" fund. Both reach conservative positions at the target date, but through funds invest less conservatively. This gives them the potential for greater returns – and also greater losses – from the beginning. In addition, their strategy means that a through fund will contain assets that can grow beyond the target date, enabling you to continue to build assets during your retirement. By doing this, a through fund also lowers the risk of outliving your retirement savings.
Before choosing a specific target-date fund for your retirement savings, research its glide path (how it progressively becomes more conservative) to learn how the fund's asset allocation will change over time. Also determine whether it is a "through" fund or a "to" fund.
A through target-date 2045 fund might have a glide path that results in an asset allocation of 60% stocks and 40% bonds and short-term funds in 2045. The percentage of stocks would decrease gradually during your retirement years, while the percentage of bonds and short-term funds would increase. But even at the target date, there would be both stocks and bonds/short-term funds in your through fund and this pattern would continue during retirement.
Through funds are meant to be held past their target dates, while to funds are likely to work best for you if they are cashed out and/or reinvested at their target date.

The v-p of a New York City waste transfer station recommends, "You want to solve the garbage problem? Stop eating. Stop living." Indeed, to ponder waste disposal is to confront the very limits of our society. Where does it all go? Most of us are content to shrug off the details—as long as it's out of sight (and smell). Not so journalist Royte, whose book in some ways (including its title) echoes Fast Food Nation. That McDonald's is more immediately engaging a subject doesn't make, say, the massive, defunct Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island, N.Y., any less compelling. Royte nicely balances autobiographical elements (where does her Fig Newmans carton end up, anyway?), interviews and fieldwork with more technical research. Her method yields palpable benefits, not least a wealth of vivid refuse-related slang (maggots are known as disco rice). The details unavoidably venture into the nauseating on occasion, and some might find the chemistry of trichloroethane and other toxins a bit dull. As the NIMBY logic of waste disposal forces its practitioners into secrecy, Royte is obliged to engage in some entertainingly furtive skullduggery. All in all, this is a comprehensive, readable foray into a world we'd prefer not to heed—but should.
Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Royte is a journalist with a nose for the "sordid afterlife" of trash, thoroughly at home in the putrid world of "Coney Island whitefish" (used condoms); "disco rice" (maggots); and—the darling of American consumer culture and the nemesis of waste activists—"Satan's resin" (plastic). Her book takes the form of a quest for the surprising final resting places of her yogurt cups, beer bottles, personal computer, and organic-fig-cookie packaging, and leads to an impassioned attack on overconsumption in America. If Royte does not quite demonstrate the muckraking skills of an Eric Schlosser in "Fast Food Nation," she does expose the feculent underside of our appetite for things and challenges her readers to disprove the resigned assessment of a former New York sanitation commissioner: "In the end, the garbage will win."
