Campuses Remember Mikel Anthony Williams and Carlos Salas, Victims of Violent Deaths
Categories: 2012 Homicides
|Mikel Williams, R.I.P.
Irvine Valley College adult learner Mikel Anthony Williams, 55, became the 10th murder victim in Anaheim on Aug. 30. Newly enrolled Saddleback College student Carlos Salas was skateboarding to his Laguna Niguel home early Sept. 7 when he was struck by a hit-and-run driver and dragged 25 feet. The 20-year-old later died at the hospital.

Williams' death hit IVC particularly hard because his college education had seemed to turn a life already full of tragedy around, according to veteran English professor (and gifted writer) Lisa Alvarez.
"He grew up here in Orange County and has people from all stages of his life who remember him from his youth--and also because of the murders of his mother and his brother," Alvarez tells the Weekly. "His family is from Louisiana and he wrote about them and his experience coming up as an African American kid.
"As my colleague Linda Thomas has pointed out to me, his story is in some ways an American story, an American life, especially these last few years as he tried, mostly successfully, with the help of local institutions, to turn his life around. Those institutions, she said, helped make his life liveable."
He'd come to the college out of Village of Hope, the Tustin shelter run by the Orange County Rescue Mission, and I just discovered Williams and I share Dwight Smith, the tireless homeless advocate at the Catholic Worker in Santa Ana, as a Facebook friend.
Williams knew the streets--and likely many of the pitfalls such a life entails--but since enrolling at IVC he had moved into housing in Irvine, found work and ditched daily bus rides for his own used car.
"We were proud of him, rooting for him," Alvarez relates.
Thomas would arrive to open the campus writing center at 7 a.m. daily and find Williams already there, bright eyed and you-know-what tailed.
"She got to know him quite well," Alvarez says of the teacher and student. "He was well-liked on campus, loved even, and I think he was surprised to find himself respected and valued."
Indeed, things had been "working out well" for Williams, according to Alvarez, who for that reason has been left shaking her head, like so many others on campus.
"I don't know how he got in that alley, stabbed, bleeding to death," says Alvarez of Williams' murder.
Anaheim Police received an anonymous call shortly after midnight Friday, Aug. 30, about a possible burglary in progress in the 800 block of North Zeyn Street, which is near Anaheim Boulevard. Officers arrived to find Williams' body in the east alley. He had been stabbed multiple times. Cops say they saw no signs of a burglary.
Before identifying Williams as the dead man, police revealed Joseph Robert Suess, 37, of Anaheim, had been arrested on suspicion of murder. A motive has yet to be released, leaving those who knew and loved Williams to wonder more about what he was doing there that night.
"I hope he was there trying to help somebody--his goal was to be a probation officer," Alvarez mentions hopefully. Then she considers the other possibility. "I fear he might have been there because his old life called too strongly for him. Maybe a bit of both."
Either option, or even an unexplained third possibility, does not lessen the grief.
"It pains me to know he must have known what was happening as it happened, a version of his mother's death, his brother's death," Alvarez opines. "He must have been cold, alone."
Services are being held today for Williams in Redlands. Many are still remembering him on his Facebook page. "Love you my brother," writes Art Williams. "The laughs and all night movies and domino games will surely be missed, but not as much as your laughs, smiles, friendship. Rest well, until we share joy again."

After my short introduction on the community board I tought I would 'show off' my herd.
Each and every one of them comes with a special story but I will keep it short...
This is MyLady, 9, breed unknown.
We bought her as a 5 year old from a very abusive home just to 'get her out of there'. She has come a long way in those 4 years and the daily handling we've got down pat.
I have no intentions to train her u/s because of her past. She deserves a fantastic life as a 'pasture puff' after all she went trough.
This is Willow, 3, MyLady's '07 foal and sired by a QH
Willow was born on my BD and the two of us share so much more than a date. I believe we're real soul-mates. If there is such a thing as ADD in a horse, she's got it! She thinks quick and learns incredibly fast, it's almost as she knew it all already. We have just started her very lightly under saddle and she does fantastic! I'm very excited to find out where this girl is going to take me!
This is MissDaisy, 7, Standardbred
We got her last year after her racing career had ended and she seems to love her new 'job' very much! She has become an amazingly reliable horse that is great out on the trails! I have just started taking lessons on her to iron out some of my kinks and teach her true collection
This seems to be the only 'full body' shot I have of her
This is our only male in the herd, SunnyBoy, 9, Paint (with lost papers)
He's hubby's horse and our 'packer'. He's one of those horses you would never sell... 100% reliable, sound, sane and good for the 'guests' to ride on! He's a true character and there is not one day he doesn't make us laugh or shake our heads...
And then we have 3 babies:
Nova, 1, Canadian (in the process to get registered)
She was advertised online, I liked her, went to look at her and fell in love with her! Next day we picked her up!
The previous owner was sadly forced to sell her and we were the lucky ones who got her. I have learned a lot so far about the breed and am facinated!!
Yuma, 1, breed unknown.
We got her in July from a rescue place near us as a weaning buddy for our filly. She is the sweetest girl ever and a very quick learner! She had a very funky color when we got her and started to turn blue roan the last few weeks... not sure what she's going to look like next year in her summer coat!
..and last but not least, Trinity, weanling, mom is MyLady and sire is a registered paint.
She was born in May this year and is definitely our sunshine! Always up to something and a real tom-boy. She LOVES our cats and follows them around and is always 'helping' when you're in the field/paddock to muck or brush/trim other horses....
You've got to be real fast to take pics of her or all you get is this:
Awww... I could cuddle her all day long!
Sorry that was long... but kudos to you if you made it all the way down here!

the Good Fight
Laura Leon
Pursuit of Happyness
by Gabriele Muccino
In The Pursuit of Happyness, Will Smith does more than
battle aliens or defend the world from disaster. He plays
a father, Chris Gardner, striving mightily to keep himself
and his son Christopher (Jaden Christopher Syre Smith, Wills
real-life son) out of a black hole of desperation, hopelessness
and insolvency. This is that all-too-rare Hollywood movie
that acknowledges just how perilous life in our society can
be, not just for people already below the poverty line, but
for those of us working to obtainor maybe just hold ontoa
piece of the American dream. On the surface, The Pursuit
of Happyness is about one mans quest to reach for the
gold ring; just below its surface, always percolating and
threatening to disturb our sense of ease, is the movies real
theme, the delicate balancing act that exists between perceived
success and bankruptcy.
Set in San Francisco in the early 80s (and inspired by a
20/20 documentary on the real-life Chris Gardner),
the movie begins with Chris efforts to unload medical scanners
that he has sunk his and wife Lindas (Thandie Newton) life
savings into. Unfortunately, the scanners are overpriced and
not recognized as particularly necessary by the scores of
doctors whom Chris courts with an unerring sense of bravado
and good humor. Neither of these attributes do much to hearten
Linda, whose sunken eyes and bony frame suggest way too many
double shifts, cigarettes and sleepless nights spent counting
dunning notices. When Chris decides to try stockbroking, via
an unpaid internship at Dean Witter Reynolds, its the last
straw, and Linda heads east to find work in a relatives restaurant,
leaving Chris in charge of building that career and caring
for their son.
One of the great things about The Pursuit of Happyness,
which was written by Steven Conrad, is how it never lets the
viewer lose sight of things like groceries, rent, bus fare,
day-care bills and overdue taxes. Thrust into an extremely
competitive internshiponly one of 20 will be offered a jobChris
must do nine hours of work in seven in order to pick his son
up from day care. As father and son lose their apartment and
are forced into a homeless shelter, the desperation begins
to mount, and Chris begins to lose some of his overt optimism.
Throughout, he must carry on the charade of normalcy with
his coworkers, who think that the reason Chris is carrying
around a suitcase is because hes got an out-of-town business
trip. The importance of appearance is vital not just to Chriss
position at Dean Witter, but also to his ownand to some extent
his sonssense of self-worth.
This is sort of a strange film to come around at this time
of year, when were usually bombarded with happy-go-lucky
romps or serious arty films vying for Oscar contention. Despite
its title, The Pursuit of Happyness is dark. Like its
title, it is concerned with questions such as, Why is it so
hard to get ahead? Smith is compelling, never once pulling
out what could have been the maudlin notes of a performance,
as if his sole goal is to portray the innate humanity of his
character and, in so doing, remind us all of the humanity
of all such people struggling to keep their heads above water.
And the onscreen chemistry between the two Smiths is nothing
short of perfection, helping to make us feel were watching
a documentary as opposed to something merely inspired by a
true story.
by Stefen Fangmeier
The well-received fantasy Eragon was written by Christopher
Paolini, a teenager from Montana. With its freshly appreciative
homages to Tolkien, Rowling, and Le Guin, the novel was praised
for its narrative sweep and the believable angst of its titular
young hero. Considering the staid, clumsily paced screen version,
perhaps Paolini shouldve done the adaptation himselfand,
what the hell, directed and starred in it as well. Chances
are his vision wouldve been livelier than Stefen Fangmeiers.
Despite the promise of his last name (and his résumé as a
visual-effects supervisor), Fangmeier has brought Paolinis
pages to life with all the verve of a housepainter, simplifying
the story to its most obviously (and boringly) Star Wars-influenced
Eragon (Edward Speleers) is an orphaned farm boy who finds,
and hatches, a dragons egg, propelling him on a quest to
rescue an elf mystic in distress (lovely Sienna Guillory)
and join the outcast resistance to the evil king (John Malkovich)
who oppresses all the land. While his blue-hued baby dragon,
Saphira (voice by Rachel Weisz), is growing into her wings,
Eragon encounters a downtrodden wanderer called Brom (Jeremy
Irons). Brom initiates the youth into the ways of dragon riding,
and tells him of legendary clashes between virtuous dragon
riders and nasty forces such as the creepy-crawly Razacs.
Noticeably meant to be the first installment in a franchise
(Paolinis follow-up, The Elder, was recently published),
the film drags its feet on Eragons humble existence as the
adopted son of a kindly uncle, and then rushes through the
last quarter, frantically introducing characters and locales
to set up future developments.
pivotal mythos is the relationship between a dragon and its
preordained riderthey can communicate telepathicallybut
this bond is rendered mundane by lifelessly clichéd dialogue
and by-the-book fantasy staging. Though the action has its
moments, mainly while Saphira is zipping through cloud cover,
most of it is groaningly familiar, and made even more so by
Speleers bland performance. Meanwhile, Weiszs voicing is
too feminine for what is, in essence, a flying war machine.
Irons, however, has learned a thing or two about world-of-make-believe
ardor since embarrassing himself in the dreck-fest of Dungeons
& Dragons, and creates a semi-interesting character
out of Broms Grimm circumstances. This time, its Robert
Carlyles turn to be brought low by cheesy prosy and churls-gone-wild
costuming. As the kings shade, an undead mage-henchman,
Carlyle comes off like Elronds evil drag-queen twin.

Need help from the Forum putting pressure on potential charging sites
RonaldA | June 19, 2013
Hello anybody who can help!( I moved this from the NYS region forum which had low traffic)
I am trying to place 90 amp chargers at a few locations along the NYS thruway before the superchargers are up. My goal is to have 9o amp options to drive between Toronto and NYC. I have been guided by Sun Country Highway toward hotels (best Western etc). I have been calling and emailing and finally found a Holiday Inn manager in Utica NY (about 1/2 way between Buffalo and NYC) that was interested and enthusiastic when I told him I would buy and donate the unit provided they agree to install it and make it available to the public. To my surprise, the owner said no, to a donated charger!
Where I need help:
Please call, E-mail and or write these hotels and ask regarding availability of 90 amp chargers so they may see a benefit in the installation cost and be more receptive to a donated charging station. We can all benefit from this effort even after the superchargers are in place. A 90 amp charger will add 60 miles/ hour to a car with twin charge capability. The chargers are compatible with all lower amp vehicles as well. The more infrastructure for electric vehicles the better. I will post the numbers, please note these are all available on the internet. Please ask for the general manager and leave a voice mail. I hope if they recieve enough calls regarding this they will be more receptive to the free hardware I am offering them.
Syracuse Best Western 315-701-4400, general office 315-752-0155 Nyan
Ramada Inn Syracuse 315-457-8670 (specify 90 amp they have charge point 30 amp)
Utica Best western 315-732-4121
Utica Holiday Inn 315-797-2131 (as for Mark the GM)mail email@example.com
Albany best western 518-458-1000
Saratoga Best Western 518-371-1811
Please help!!! even if you don't plan on driving this route, it may crop up. A phone call a letter a voice mail lets use this forum to show the potential benefit to installing chargers...chargers I will provide for free. Please concentrate on Mark at the Utica Holiday Inn first. I think if his owner sees the benefit they may go for it.
Thanks for the help.
Ron A
What chargers are you planning on using?
Sun country Highway c90 chargers j1772 compatable.
Ron A,
I led the successful effort to get Harris Ranch to install the first public Roadster charger in central California. My recommendation is to drive a Model S up to the establishments you're trying to talk into hosting them and show them what the Model S actually is.
Phone calls and emails just don't cut it. 0-60 in ~4 seconds convinces!
You might start by looking up the local city council's economic development organization and reach out to them as well, showing them how this will bring drivers off of the thruway, into their towns to spend money.
Your initial trips will require the use of slower RV parks for you to charge while showing them the cars. I also recommend you choose hotels that also have restaurants that would benefit from travelers spending time.
If you make the pitch that you'll provide the charger if they do the installation, they'll probably be more ready to take the chance. This is what I did. Additionally, I took the tax break because I donated my charger to Plug-In America, a non-profit and they actually provided it to Harris Ranch. There are 2 other non-profits today that are actually set up to support exactly this kind of thing. They are Adopt a Charger (http://adoptacharger.org/) and the Electric Automobile Association (http://www.electricauto.org/). You might want to approach them as well.
As part of a sales pitch, you could use Harris Ranch in CA as a shining, successful example of how this can work. If you Google 'Harris Ranch electric vehicle', you'll find tons of articles (free press) about this. They liked what it did for them that they told their friends at the Tejon Ranch to work with Tesla on hosting superchargers so it is now very easy to get from LA to SF. There's no reason that the NYS Thruway can't be the same deal.
Cool I will look into that. I am also getting help from Sun Country Highway since they successfully did this across Canada. If you have the time though, lets call the sites and ask for charger access!!
@RonaldA - Earl and Nagin is right on in his suggestions. You don't necessarily need a hotel; any establishment that provides a good place to wait and wants to increase its traffic will work. Getting the local economic development council involved is also a good suggestion. You might even want to affiliate with an existing organization. Take a look at what JackA has done with his North Central Washington High Amperage L2 Charging Project, http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.php/17063-North-Central-Washin.... He has had a good response from both host sites and donors.
Earl and Nagin;
That would make fascinating reading for members who weren't following those early efforts, or are new here. Suggest a gripping write-up of a half-page or more!
These are good ideas I am in no way tied to hotels. Malls eating establishments etc are all options for me.
Roller coaster parks? Waterslide parks? All-you-can-eat buffets?
I'd be glad to install one here at my home in Buckeye, Arizona! I even have the spot picked out... :)
What about rest stops? Or even gas stations? Both of those seem most likely to have the on-off highway access you'd want.
I just installed my high power charger 1 mile from thruway exit 30. Halfway between NYC and Buffalo. I don't know if it's operational yet. My car arrives today or tomorrow. Email me to discuss details if you'd like to charge at my place. email@example.com
Great I have the buffalo end with 2 hpcs and 2 NEMA 14-50 check out plug share. Feel free to call and stop for a charge if you get up this far.
I have a definite in Albany Best Western Sovereign and hopeful in Syracuse so the 90 amp line to NYC is almost complete.
Success Best western Syracuse Carrier Circle and Best Western Albany will have 90 amp suncountry chargers installed within the next few weeks. I may go for Binghampton next.
I am happy to help. I will make some calls and emails. You may want to alert ChargeNY.com about your project. I am working on my village(Cazenovia) to put in a charger in one of their municipal parking lots.
If I offer to donate one of these Sun Country chargers, what is the approximate cost?
I believe they will give you a deal I managed two at 1900 and will probably get a third. Sun country wants to put eight between Toronto and NYC lets get it done! Email me and I will forward your name to Sun Country CEO Chris M.
I think you need to tell him what address to us! Unless he already knows it.
Congrats Ron, and thanks! Glad to see this coming together so quickly (ever though I'm 3,000 miles away).
I've only found one of these in california: at Dr. Marcum's office in San Luis Obispo. Its beautiful to charge with one of these things on the road. Not as fast as a supercharger (2 hrs for 1/2 battery), but still a viable option for trips that are 1.5x your max range away. "Plug in and get a meal" with these vs. supercharger which is "Plug in and get a cup of coffee."
I agree, 90 amp if possible is the way to go if superchargers are not around. I you have the means or are so inclined please sponsor a charger and donate to a resteraunt or hotel along you preferred long distance travel route. You can contact Sun Country at www.suncountryhighway.ca. If enough of us do this maybe we can help eleviate congestion at charging stations and "range rage"
@Brian H,
Sorry I'm so slow in responding. I've been very busy over the past few weeks.
We've been in this battle for over a decade, having had a wonderful EV1 taken from us and crushed, jumping to get a Tesla Roadster that we couldn't afford (it cost as much as all the other cars we've owned - combined), pushing to promote Tesla, building early EV charging infrastructure, and are still pushing to put gasoline cars aside so society can continue to move forward.
We have so many stories that a half page wouldn't come close to finishing. I guess that some day, maybe when our society is no longer dependent on gasoline, I'll have to write the whole thing down.
In the mean time, I'm just relieved that there are people such as you, RonaldA, and the millions of other Tesla supporters on this forum and not that are joining in and helping out now.

Michigan State defensive lineman Lawrence Thomas
- Filed Under
Michigan State sophomore defensive tackle Lawrence Thomas could be back on the field for a Sept. 21 visit to Notre Dame.
Then next question is whether MSU will think about moving him back to offense - he played fullback and has said he'd enjoy a shot at tight end - but for now the Spartans would just like to see him anywhere but on an exercise bike during practice.
"Hopefully that's coming to fruition," MSU coach Mark Dantonio said of a return from an undisclosed injury that shelved Thomas for most of preseason camp. ...

As of Tuesday, July 2, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
Somehow I ran across an out-of-print book called "The Last Lap." It is now 15 years old but tells an intriguing, timeless tale of the early days of America's first stock car racers.
These colorful characters ruled the sport 30 years before I ever set foot at a track. The legend of many of those men outlived their years on earth, so I sometimes heard tales of their wild, renegade ways. Whenever we raced at Riverside International Raceway in California, someone was likely to mention Joe Weatherly.
Riverside (ripped up years ago in order to build a shopping mall) was a dusty, old road course that set down between brown, barren hills when I first made its acquaintance. This was in the days before all NASCAR tracks had to glisten, shine and cost a lot of money to build. Folks sat in wooden, pitiful looking bleachers; the garage was nothing more than a shabby, tin-roof cover, and everyone from drivers to fans to young PR girls like me were covered in dry, brown dust when the day ended. The press box never had more than eight or nine reporters in it and only two of them came from Southern California. The others were full-time writers who chased the circuit that was chasing glory.
It was where Bill Elliott won his first race and where Tim Richmond won his first race and, four years later, his last race before quitting to live out his final year of life. It was where timid Stevie Waltrip approached me in the press box while her dust-covered husband, Darrell, sat in the middle of the room, swigging Gatorade and answering questions from three reporters about that day's win, and she struck up a conversation that struck up a thick-as-thieves friendship that sticks strong today.
But Riverside, as I was reminded while reading the deliciously entertaining "Last Lap," was always haunted by the ghost of Joe Weatherly. Those who knew him spoke of him when we ran Riverside and told hard-to-believe stories. The talented Weatherly was the running buddy and hard-partying comrade of the irrepressible Curtis Turner. The two were known for their antics off the track as well as their charging, all-out efforts to win every race. They once drove a rental car into a swimming pool, climbed out and left it there. Those two were so hard on rental cars that Hertz finally put out an all-points bulletin to its locations saying, "Do not rent to either of these men under any circumstances."
During our last race in Riverside in 1988, I was working with the equally legendary Bud Moore, a car owner since the 1950s. A big, formidable, no-nonsense man, Mr. Bud, as I respectfully called him, had hired and managed some of the most unmanageable personalities in the sport. Like Dale Earnhardt.
"When I got him, he took some tamin'," Mr. Bud told me, not bragging but stating the facts. "When he came to drive for me, he was used to doing as he darn well pleased. If he had an appointment with a sponsor, but if it was a good day for fishin', he went fishin'. I had to learn him different."
The day before the final race in Riverside, I found Mr. Bud sitting by himself on the pit wall so I sat down. Quietly, he pointed to a wall. "That's where it happened."
Weatherly, driving for Moore in 1964, lost control of the car coming out of the esses, spun and hit the wall on the driver's side. His head came out the window and smacked the wall, killing him. Mr. Bud's craggy, leathery face was covered in sadness, his blue eyes darkened by the memory.
Now that track is long gone and with it the memory of a racing warrior. Today, someone is buying coffee on the same ground where once a man's life ended. His last lap.
How un-poetic is that?

Originally conceived for the 2008 TIGSource.com 'Bootleg Demake' competition, Gang Garrison 2 is a free multiplayer 'demake' of Valve's Team Fortress 2. With all 9 classes, many different TF2-inspired environments, and fast-paced, team-based, multiplayer gameplay represented, GG2 is the premier TF2 tribute/parody/alternative. Gang Garrison 2 presents the player with 9 unique classes to use in frenetic, cooperative multiplayer action in a stylish and unique 8-bit style. Battle with your friends or others you encounter online through a whole range of vibrant maps; TF2 maps reimagined in 2D as well as a multitude of maps with all sorts of different looks and settings, all of which have been dreamed up and constructed by members of our community.

Almost like real TF2!
Jan 18th, 2014 0 people agree 0 people don't
2007 Valve released it's TF2. It was a game where you could play as 9 classes (Scout, Pyro, Soldier, Engineer, etc.) and it also upgraded the graphics. Before it was F2P the Gang Garrison 2 team made a 2D game somewhere in 2008. The game included the same classes except new names such as:
Constructor - Engineer
Runner - Scout
Healer - Medic
and there also was a secret class from Cave Story Q/C. You can press Q in the class menu to get it. The modes are well done and Gang Garrison 2 has it's own mode too: Generator. In that you must destroy the enemy team's generator. The maps are well done but what i don't like is the overpowered secret class which is very powerful than the real classes. It has some bugs and it requires a graphics card. The forums: i do not recommend it. The community is fun but there's less players which is what i don't like. Graphics are excellent! They're 8-bit graphics and not something like crap made 3D in 2D classes ingame (you don't understand me here at all lol). TF2 Classes looking like in GG2 would be crap. The developers have decided to make them 8-bit instead of that. The overweight's face is a bit creepy. It's concept was a good idea. The music is well made 8-bit.

A 2D demake of TF2 with a surprising amount of depth and complexity. Any gamer with a background in competitive gaming should give this game a try.

Norwegian Gem Cruise Review by b0m5jgr: Bermuda Cruise

Compare Prices on Norwegian Gem Bermuda Cruises
Bermuda Cruise
This is our 2nd Cruise both with Norwegian. We love the free-style type of cruising. Our cabin was neat & clean & with the balcony, what a view. Our cruise director Johnny Cash Santos was great along with our cabin steward.
Both restaurant's (grand pacific and magenta) were great with the grand pacific having a little better view and piano music. Food was good in both. Had room service quite a bit and that was on time and no mistake on our orders. The shows were fantastic each night. Can't say enough about the crew and service.
Bermuda was beautiful, the water so blue, the beaches unreal and the excursion to the Bermuda Zoo & Aquarium was very good.
Only 2 minor complaints. 1st the Atrium with the Big wi-fi screen was distracting (liked the Dawn better with garden type Atrium). Also on our trip home from Bermuda the last night was quite a ride with 15ft waves and winds up to 50mph so the ship was rocking & rolling. My Step-daughter got very seasick to the More point of calling the ship's doctor but was told she had to go down to see him or they would send up a wheelchair (but with a cost) which I thought was wrong but maybe that's Norwegian's policy. Other than that the Cruise was great, can't wait to go again. Less

Donnie Nelson: Rick Carlisle isn't going anywhere; new deal on horizon
The Mavericks expect Rick Carlisle to return as coach next season, president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson said Sunday.
Carlisle can become a free agent in June, when his contract expires. Nelson declined to discuss details, but he said the sides have a common ground that should lead to a new deal.
"He likes us; we like him," Nelson said. "Those situations generally get worked out. Rick's not going anywhere."
Carlisle declined to discuss his status but acknowledged affection for the Mavericks.
"This has been a great opportunity for me and my family," Carlisle said. "We love it here."
In four seasons with Carlisle, the Mavericks are 198-114 in the regular season and 23-18 in the playoffs. This was his worst season in terms of record (36-30) and being swept by Oklahoma City in the opening round of the playoffs.
"He [Carlisle] did everything he could with what he had to work with," guard Jason Kidd said. "We didn't make it easy on him with the injuries and stuff, but he was always prepared and always had the team ready to go."

Resource Guide
A risk factor increases your chances of developing cancer. Modifying the following risk factors may help reduce your risk of stomach cancer.
The general guidelines for helping reduce your risk of stomach cancer include the following:
A significant number of cases of stomach cancer may be associated with smoking. If you are a smoker, you should do everything within your power to stop. You are risking stomach cancer, as well as many other kinds of serious disease. Contact your doctor to see if you can use an alternative nicotine delivery system (nicotine patch, nicotine gum), hypnotherapy, or group support to help you make this difficult but important lifestyle change.
For more information on quitting smoking,
click here
Alcohol may be a risk factor for stomach cancer. If you are a heavy drinker, consult with your doctor on methods that can help you stop drinking.
H. pylori
infection, chronic atrophic gastritis, and other chronic stomach conditions have been associated with an increased risk of developing stomach cancer. If you have any of these conditions, get medical treatment and follow through on medical recommendations for treatment.
You may have a higher-than-normal risk of developing stomach cancer if you work with heavy metals, rubber, or asbestos. If you must work with these substances, find out how to best protect yourself from exposure to the chemicals you'll be around. Check with the
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
or the
Environmental Protection Agency
for protective guidelines.
Some studies have found a link between
use and reduced rates of cancer in the lower stomach . Since taking aspirin can have side effects, including gastrointestinal bleeding, talk to your doctor before deciding to start aspirin therapy.
Furthermore, since stomach cancer has been associated with smoked, salted, and pickled foods, it would be wise to cut down on these foods as much as possible.

Voters need to focus on budget talks, taxes
Re: "City to gamble on gas tax fix" (news article, July 11).
I read Mayor John Marks' statement in Thursday's Democrat with total disbelief. He said, "If the gas tax doesn't pass, we've got to make up this shortfall somewhere in revenue or reduce expenses to balance the budget." Are you serious? How hard a decision can this be?
Forget the gas tax and let's work on cutting expenses. Start with cutting all slush funds and compensation for top-paid city and county employees. Stop building sidewalks to nowhere. Since we furnish vehicles and gas to top officials, buy them Ford Escorts instead of expensive SUVs.
These are just a few suggestions that can get you started. Both commissions need to learn to live within their means just as we have to do. If you can't afford it, don't buy it.
Taxpayers, we need to wake up and closely monitor these elected officials. If they are not representing our best interest, then next election let's change them. Forget the gas tax; it hurts and cripples everyone in this community.
My two cents.
Let's learn to improve life for animals
Re: "ASPCA drops Tallahassee" (news article, July 11).
I and other members of the humane community in Tallahassee were dismayed to learn of the loss of the all-important support from the ASPCA. At a time of increased costs and lowered donations experienced by most charities, this was a huge blow. The result will be an increase in the intake of homeless animals at the Tallahassee-Leon Animal Service Center and an inevitable increase in euthanasias.
While there are many complex reasons for this tragic circumstance, including the need for a comprehensive spay-and-neuter program, a reasonable countywide approach to community cats and increased education about responsible pet ownership, now is not the time to point fingers. Now is the time to focus on how we can create the kind of community that we all say we want: one that respects all life, including animal life.
The lesson to be learned is that we must put our petty differences aside immediately, and work together toward a solution that benefits the animals entrusted to our care, which ultimately affects the quality of life of all our residents, two and four legged.

Okay Gagher/Steelbluiis, show me what you got. This is my last buy , still averaging up, which was actually 20,000 (18,000 on Alpha and the other 2,000 on the TSX as I stated in past). Now lets see you post a sale of at least 20,000 shares, since you said you bought around 40-60,000 and subsequently sold all. If you can't show us a sale transaction, then you never sold and are still holding shares (which would require some explaining to all as you say you don't hold any now). If you didn't sell, then show us a buy of at least 20,000 shares. Time to put up or shut up. The river card has been played.

I don't see many rumors coming out of Washington. Why is that? They have a team heavily underperforming. I thought we would have heard more rumors about players like Semin or any other. Don't you think something must be done in Washington? Changing coach didn't change much… Shoud they wait for the summer to shake their roster?

Gabamed was discovered by two cosmetic surgeons in Florida, and its marketing is focused on middle aged to older women. It claims itself to be an alternative to botox, and it comes in creams. As the name suggests, the main ingredient is GABA, and it is said to "take effect in mere seconds."
Gabamed comes in an easy to apply cream form, and there is no down time or recovery time associated with this botox alternative. They provide a satisfaction guarantee for those who don't achieve the desired results, and the main ingredient, GABA, will relax muscles and promote the relaxation of many wrinkles.
Gabamed first shoots themselves in the foot by offering a "free trial offer" which is a dead giveaway of an overpriced, worthless product trying to push a difficult to cancel autoship program onto unsuspecting consumers. Second, they offer a grand total of one customer testimonial on the website. What they lack in testimonials is only aggravated by the fact that they don't provide a full ingredients list, and there are no valid clinical studies to back up the claims they have made about Gabamed. Even for those who supposedly achieve success, results last only 10 hours or until it is washed off at the end of the day, whichever comes sooner.
While this world has become one of instant gratification, we suggest patience for the long term. Quick fixes rarely last, and Gabamed is no exception. They provide supposedly "instant" results, but even they have to admit those results don't last long. It will do nothing for collagen synthesis or otherwise serious results, and eventually Gabamed's results will diminish with each use. We suggest looking for a product that may take a bit longer to show noticeable results, but will be better in the long term.

Steve Shearer, the Group's Director of International Sales and Brand Development says that as the largest 100% New Zealand owned and operated hotel chain in the country, Scenic Hotel Group is proud to accept the award as recognition of exceptional dedication to New Zealand tourism.
Scenic Hotel Group underwent a successful rebranding campaign in 2009 to industry acclaim, clearly differentiating the 3-star Heartland Hotels,4-star Scenic Hotels and standalone 5-star Te Waonui Forest Retreat.

Investing over $12 million in the last year alone in refurbishment and renovation, Scenic Hotel Group has a strong, strategic growth plan. The recent addition of Scenic Hotel Tonga during a global economic downturn is an indication of the optimism the Group has for continued growth and the future of tourism in New Zealand and across the Pacific region. "Family values driven by the entrepreneurial and philanthropic Hagaman family underpin the highest levels of service and commitment to the best in tourism and hospitality," says Mr Shearer. "We are delighted that our dedication to sustainable tourism and true kiwi hospitality has been recognised with this success."

Eindhoven, The Netherlands, August 1, 2013 – NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ: NXPI) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2013, ended June 30, 2013, and provided guidance for the third quarter 2013.
"Our revenue results for the second quarter of 2013 came in at the higher end of our guidance, as NXP delivered Product revenue of $1,159 million, a ten percent sequential increase, and a twelve percent increase from the comparable year ago period. Total NXP revenue in the second quarter was $1,188 million, just over a nine percent sequential increase, and nearly a nine percent increase from the comparable year ago period," said Richard Clemmer, NXP Chief Executive Officer.
"Our revenue performance during the quarter reflected robust double digit sequential growth across all of our HPMS end-markets with a strong rebound in growth in our Infrastructure & Industrial and our Portable & Computing business. Our Identification business continues to perform very well, as a result of strong ongoing demand for our banking and transit products, offset slightly by product transitions in our mobile payments business. Our Automotive business delivered strong sequential growth due to better than seasonal demand, combined with the launch of a new customer entertainment program and the continued ramp of major keyless entry programs. During the second quarter both the Identification and Automotive business' achieved historic revenue record levels – a positive reflection of the intense passion and customer focus both teams demonstrate in managing their business. The revenue performance of the Standard products segment was slightly below our expectations as a result of weaker than expected demand for certain Logic products within the mobile end-market. From an earnings perspective, we exceeded guidance primarily as a result of better operating expense control combined with strong revenue growth in our HPMS segment.
"Our focus continues to be delivering top-line growth in excess of our peers, while delivering best in class operating profitability. The overall performance of HPMS is very good, with operating margin solidly within our long-term target, and we are comfortable delivering on our intermediate profitability goals. Our strategy of providing unique and differentiated product solutions continues to resonate with our customers, and should result in continued long-term growth in excess of the overall end market," said Clemmer.

Word to the wise from an actual salesperson and someone who works in a professional setting - the customer is always right, your reputation hinges not on the satisfied people but the ones who aren't satisfied that you do right by, and when representing a company as a web presence, you should act like a professional. The fact that you're a binding specific company and think it's time to move on to another company just shows how little faith YOU have in your product.
Learn how to represent your brand.
What utter nonsense.

text: By JOE MILICIA Associated Press CLEVELAND The Browns began contract talks with rookie linebacker Kamerion Wimbley on Friday, seeking to have their first-round pick present when training camp opens for the first time since 2000. Wimbleys agent Joe Linta met with the Browns at their headquarters in suburban Berea. He said he was encouraged after talks ended Friday. The two sides were to negotiate through the weekend. No one has shouted yet so thats a good thing, said Linta, adding that he wasnt planning on leaving town without a deal. Wimbley, a speedy defensive end at Florida State, was selected with the No. 13 overall pick of the NFL draft to help improve Clevelands weak outside pass rush. The 6-foot-3, 245-pound Wimbley will switch to outside linebacker in Clevelands 3-4 scheme and could contribute immediately on a team that had a league-low 23 sacks last season. Wimbley recorded 7.5 sacks in nine starts as a senior with the Seminoles. Its something you would always want to do as a kid coming up be able to go to an NFL team and play and contribute, Wimbley said during minicamp last month. Im happy that the coaches see that I can definitely come in and help the team out. He impressed teammate Brian Russell with his speed and quickness at minicamp. Ive seen very few d-linemen/outside linebackers who can run with a receiver. Thats special, the safety said. Im hoping he can be a big-time playmaker for us this year. Hes a natural. Wimbley most likely would start off as part of a three-man rotation at outside linebacker, coach Romeo Crennel has said. Much will depend on whether Wimbley reports to camp on time Wednesday. He would be the first Cleveland top pick signed for the start of camp since Courtney Brown in 2000. It might not hurt that Wimbleys agent also represents Crennel. I dont personally feel any pressure to get him in because of coach, Linta said. (Crennel) hasnt said one thing to me. Its not a conflict because we dont talk about that. What could slow talks is that only one first-round pick has a deal. Defensive end Mario Williams, taken No. 1 overall by Houston, signed before the draft.

Chicken with Olives, Raisins, and Spinach Rice
Chicken cutlets are ready in minutes -- be sure not to overcook them. The raw spinach will wilt in the hot rice, so you don't need to cook it separately.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
- Yield: Serves 4
Photography: Anna Williams
Source: The Martha Stewart Show, November Fall 2007
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 1 bunch flat-leaf spinach (1 pound), thick stems removed, leaves washed well and coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 chicken cutlets (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- 1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives, slivered
- 1/4 cup golden raisins
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 3/4 cups water to a boil. Add rice, season with salt, and return to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook just until tender, 16 to 18 minutes. Remove pan from heat; add spinach, cover, and let stand, without stirring, for 5 minutes. Using a fork, fluff rice and mix in spinach.
While rice is cooking, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Cook in two batches, until browned outside and opaque throughout, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate (reserve skillet); cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
Add wine, olives, and raisins to skillet. Cook over medium-high until wine is almost evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add cup 1/2 water; cook until sauce is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve chicken over spinach rice, and top with sauce.

Looking forward to see how my boys will eat this.
elizabeth11 18 Dec, 2008
i was so excited but found this dish to be bland. and made the mistake of adding 1and 1/2 cups water as the directions were unclear--sauce was watery. recipe worth tweaking though!
talia 18 Dec, 2008
I substituted cherry flavored craisins for raisins, that definitely amped up the holiday factor and created a lovely burgundy/plum coloured sauce.
cookiebabe 17 Dec, 2008
i used chicken tenders. always on sale and cook quickly. dish needs more spice, so consider garlic or onion powder or even oregano. any fresh spinach will do. for more fiber add, towards the end, white kidney/cannellini beans. use chicken broth instead of water. i also used more olive oil for flavor. pitted olives are found in most major grocery chains.
clayqueen 17 Dec, 2008
If you have difficulty locating pitted Kalamata olives, try this trick my best friend told me about: sit an olive on a flat, firm surface and roll it under your fingertip a few times. This loosens the pit from the flesh and makes pits really easy to remove :D.
jeanob14 22 Aug, 2008
This is part of our regular rotation. We have everything on hand except for the spinach. After several times eating it with raisins I tried dried figs and it was wonderful.
krazykathy 25 Jun, 2008
I made this recipe last night. It needs something. Too bland for our taste.
MiseEnPlace 1 Apr, 2008
This recipe is ideal for those of us who dislike 'bitter' spinach since the spinach stays bright and flavorful. I used chicken stock instead of water to cook the rice, because it was in the fridge. No need to find pitted Kalamatas since you have to sliver them anyway...a few extra seconds to pit. This recipe lends itself to various dried fruits as well as the sultanas.
A very easy recipe with lots of eye ,and palate, appeal.
soupe 28 Nov, 2007
I used tender style chickeni because I already had in freezer.Tough time locating pitted olives but finally found at Trader J. Cut the olives with kitchen shears rather than knife-easier. I cooked the spinach
(I used baby spinach),once mixed w/rice it appeared less cooked than in photo posted with recipe.I steamed the mixture of rice
mmsrjs 28 Nov, 2007
Make your own cutlets by slicing a boneless skinless chicken breast in half lengthwise. Then pound flat in between plastic wrap or in a plastic storage bag using a meat mallet or small strong pan. Using this technique, the breasts will cook completely through in 2-4 minutes per side. Also the reference to "carry-over" cooking means that while the chicken is resting in the foil, the juices will re-distribute and the chicken will continue cooking during that time.
red_wine 28 Nov, 2007
Hi. I've read the recipe also and found that you use chicken cutlets which are thinner than boneless chicken breast. Also you will have "carry-over" cooking when you take the cutlets out of the pan and cover with foil..
mlschless 28 Nov, 2007
I can't wait to try this! I have a question though. I've read the recipe 2 or 3 times and it seems the chicken is only cooked 2-4 minutes max (1-2 per side)? Can that be right? Doesn't seem like enough time to cook through. What am I missing? Thanks!

Pens' Staal enjoys spike in goal production
Penguins/NHL Videos
That Penguins center Jordan Staal ripped into his teammates following a sloppy first period against Colorado on Tuesday is no surprise. Leadership has always come naturally to him.
Consistent scoring has always seemed more of a challenge for the 23-year-old.
Until now, anyway.
Staal, long considered one of the game's elite defensive forwards, has become an offensive force. His vision and creativity — never strengths in his first five seasons — have seemingly caught up with Staal's immense size and defensive gifts.
His teammates aren't surprised by his overall dominance.
"I've always seen it, ever since I've been here," right wing James Neal said. "I saw it in juniors, too. That talent has always been there. It just gets overshadowed because of how great defensively he is."
Staal's offensive game has never been so diverse. He has scored nine goals this season, and in many different ways. Staal has scored on a couple of one-timers from the slot; he beat Carolina goal Cam Ward with a pretty breakaway move last week; and he fooled the Colorado defense by peeling away from a check and scoring Tuesday on a wicked wrist shot.
The glimpse of supreme goal-scoring ability Staal displayed during a rookie season in which he scored 29 goals is back, five years later, in a more refined, mature manner. Left wing Matt Cooke, a longtime Staal linemate, said the center only needed time.
"I don't think that he's playing in a way that he's never played before," Cooke said. "He's been given a big opportunity to succeed with Sid (center Sidney Crosby) out. He's been put in a position to succeed, and he's been nothing but solid."
Staal will never match the skill of fellow centers Crosby and Evgeni Malkin — few in NHL history can make such a claim — but his performance offensively has reached a different dimension. Clearly more patient with the puck, Staal is executing passes that he wouldn't have attempted a couple of years ago.
Bylsma theorizes that Staal's understanding of his own ability is leading to the maturation of his offensive game.
"Trying to toe-drag is not where he's strong," Bylsma said. "But when he skates and uses his size, it gives him a chance to make plays and go to the net. When he stays in that box, he can show a lot of offensive prowess."
Teams wishing to focus on Crosby and Malkin likely will be burned if they pay Staal no attention.
"Nobody focuses on him scoring goals," defenseman Kris Letang said. "He was a guy who could play 22 minutes a night in all situations. But now when you see his shot, his size, and how he's going to the net, you understand why he's been so good offensively."
To put Staal's surge in perspective, consider that he has scored 19 goals in his past 57 games. In Washington star Alex Ovechkin's past 57 games, he has scored 25 goals. In Malkin's past 57 games, he has scored 23 goals.
Staal is starting to produce like a star, and his intangibles have never been questioned.
"Right now, he is unbelievable," Neal said. "The way he skates, everything. He's at the top of the league in terms of being a shutdown defender. But now, he is offensively as well. He can do it all."

John Paul Concierge
We can't recommend RMIS highly enough; "they get it" and then deliver great work to timescale and budget with a twist ... great business insight and acumen..... Great results, expert & high integrity.
George Evans CEO John Paul UK
Altitude Select
We used RMIS studio for our company website when we first started the company. To give an idea of the standards we started as an owner operated business, the website was intended to give validation and attract oil and gas companies. We received comments like "your website presents an opportunity to explore" from a target client that lead to the start of our success. RMIS supported us through all aspects of the site in design and creation ensuring it functioned properly. Www.recruitmentforenergy.co.uk. This site was their representation of our business when we were very small. We re branded and changed to altitude select. We used RMIS again for this and would not entrust any other company in the development of our site. Www.altitudeselect.com. We are now much larger and much of our success comes from the support of RMIS and the team. I have no hesitation but to whole heartedly recommend the RMIS team to any company regardless of size.
Nik Aspden, Altitude Select.
Commemoration Hall
RMIS Studio have been a huge help in setting up our website. Not only was it set up quickly but the design is great and has all information required. They listened to what we wanted the site to include and have achieved this in designing a very professional website for us. They have also been very helpful in making changes to the site when required. I would strongly recommend them to others.
Marilyn Bailey, Commemoration Hall Huntingdon
LeMark Floors
We wanted a bespoke, innovative, professional website full of flare and creativity and that is exactly what we got when we used RMIS Studio. RMIS provided us with everything we asked for and much more. Our website was created in remarkable time and delivered with exceptional attention to detail. The quality of the work was outstanding and we would recommend RMIS Studio to any business or company that wants a strong online presence at a reasonable price.
David Cartwright, National Business Development, Le Mark Group
Popcorn Community TV
RMIS Studio have been a key supplier in terms of the launch of our business which is heavily dependent upon online communications. They have provided fast and reliable solutions based upon our exact needs. Their ability to listen to a client's requirement and to deliver a timely solution that matches those needs, at a very competitive price, makes them a web-supplier that all business should contact. I would have no hesitation in recommending RMIS to any organisation that wants anything from a basic promotional site to a rich interactive online service. Their ability and experience in delivering social network solutions was of particular interest to us.

Judas Priest
Live In Concert
January 2010
Released: 2009, SFM
Rating: 2.5/5
Reviewer: Celtic Bob
We all know and love classic Priest, right? Here we have a live recording from 1980 some of their better known material up until this point. While this release appears a little grey market we do get is a glimpse into one of Priests strongest eras. The quality of the recording is questionable at times but on the bright side it hasn�t been touched up in the studio afterward. Performance-wise the band is strong and Halford�s voice is still amazing at this point in time. He still has the range and could hit the notes easily unlike today.
A release for die-hard Priest fans only. If you are a casual fan then avoid this disc. It is a good look at an excellent era of the band but the quality is sub-par.

Defense leads Elizabeth Forward girls into semifinals
TribLIVE Sports Videos
The Elizabeth Forward girls basketball team's dream season is still very much alive and well.
Using a suffocating defense and balanced scoring attack, EF cruised to a 66-45 win over Central Valley on Saturday afternoon at West Allegheny High School. EF (22-2) will face undefeated Blackhawk on Wednesday evening at a time and site yet to be determined.
"I don't want to sound like a broken record, but it has been our defense that has carried us through," said Elizabeth Forward coach Sam Kosanovich. "Today, we really had some offensive game that came through as well."
The victors were paced by junior guard Kylie Owoc's 16 points while forward Dana Buck chipped in with 15.
Central Valley's Seairra Barrett led all scorers with 20 points.
Elizabeth Forward's guard tandem of Alison Pastore and Abigail Sporio turned up the defensive pressure. Their play helped create 23 Central Valley (18-5) turnovers, seven of which came in the first quarter.
Buck scored three buckets from close range in the game's opening frame while Owoc's 3-pointer near the end of the quarter gave Elizabeth Forward a 19-10 lead.
The Buck/Owoc duo continued to dominate in the second quarter. Teammate Olivia Barkley also chipped in, converting two offensive rebounds into baskets late in the half, pushing Elizabeth Forward's advantage to 34-16.
"Balanced scoring, that is what we do," added Kosanovich. "We run players in and out and feel that everyone has a chance to compete when they get on the floor. It showed tonight."
Barrett, along with point guard Morgan DeMailo, worked to bring Central Valley back in the third quarter. DeMailo hit two 3-pointers to cut the EF lead to 15 midway through the third, but Elizabeth Forward stifled Central Valley with its trademark defense.
"Barrett is very athletic and goes to the hoop strong," added Kosanovich. "We did our best to put a body on her and hold our own. She's very good in the post. We did an outstanding job overall. I thought we played a strong defensive game throughout."
Elizabeth Forward's reward is a date in the Class AAA semifinals against powerful Blackhawk, which disposed of Belle Vernon in the earlier game.
"We're going to come and play, that is for sure," said Kosanovich. "They're undefeated for a reason."

The 10 Weirdest Pokemon Ever
