When something goes terribly wrong with a federally regulated system, as occurred in the financial crisis of 2008 that led to the meltdown of the U.S. economy, it's difficult to believe adding another government agency is going to improve things. Frankly, most folks figure it could make the situation worse.
But an in-depth look by The Associated Press at the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which has been in existence just 14 months, shows it to be aggressively protecting the public in the wake of the fiscal fiasco that hurt so many. The agency was created as part of the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 aimed at overhauling the financial products and services industry.
The agency has launched dozens of enforcement probes and issued more than 100 subpoenas demanding data, testimony and marketing materials — sometimes amounting to millions of pages — from companies that include credit card lenders, for-profit colleges and mortgage servicers, according to AP.
In more than two dozen interviews with agency officials and industry executives, AP learned about the new agency's behind-the-scenes efforts that have been so aggressive that it has caught many in the financial industry off guard.
This has resulted in many banks, payday lenders and credit card companies tightening their record-keeping and bracing to hire defense lawyers.
We see this as positive for consumers who, despite their best efforts, were confused by the smooth talk of those making financial deals. This proactive approach is far better than having to help consumers repair the damage when a deal goes horribly bad.
The bureau's oversight has forced changes to the mortgage application and foreclosure process, the way people lodge complaints against financial companies and, in some cases, what fees they can be charged.
"The CFPB is a new animal, and they have to establish their turf and a way of doing business," says Jack Conway, the attorney general of Kentucky and an outspoken critic of for-profit colleges such as the well-known University of Phoenix. "If that breaks from standard practice of other regulators, I don't have a huge problem with it."
Given the aggressive nature of the financial service industry, this makes sense — fighting fire with fire.

A monument is to be erected outside the former home of Dorothea Tanning on Hawkinson Avenue.
Tanning is an internationally renowned artist and writer who was born in Galesburg in 1910 and studied at Knox College. The City Council on Monday approved a plan to erect a marble marker outside the house at 420 Hawkinson Ave., where Tanning lived as a child. The celebrated surrealist artist turned 100 last year.
A special Dorothea Tanning symposium also is being organized for May 14 at Knox to celebrate her life and work. Michael Taylor, modern art curator at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, will be the keynote speaker at the event, according to Paulette Thenhaus, a member of the Dorothea Tanning Symposium Committee.
McFall Monument Co. will donate, engrave and erect the stone marker that will be placed in front of 420 Hawkinson Ave., Thenhaus said.
Martin Reichel, of McFall Monument, said he was pleased to help out with a project he hopes will make people more aware of Tanning's links to Galesburg.
Reichel, president of the Galesburg Public Library Board, said that Tanning worked at the library when she was a young woman.
"I would suspect the majority of people in Galesburg don't know about her but she is a very famous artist," he said.
The marker will probably be erected at the start of May and then officially dedicated during the symposium on May 14, according to Thenhaus.
"It's a very modest house but that's why I think it's kind of neat that she lived there and then went on to do what she did," she said.
The symposium committee is seeking a grant from the Illinois Humanities Council to help with expenses. She thanked the City Council for supporting the initiative. Aldermen voted unanimously in favor of the proposal at Monday's council meeting.
Tanning, who lives in New York, was married to artist Max Ernst for 30 years until he died in 1976. Ernst also was a famous surrealist. Her paintings are displayed in some of the world's most prestigious galleries and she published poetry, a novel and two memoirs.

Categories - Featured, Social Media
Buy Diclofenac Without Prescription, Last month, the "What's so [Bleeping] Hard About Social ROI" SXSW 2012 Interactive brand and marketing session assembled a panel of bloggers, brand-builders and marketers to provide answers to the nagging questions surrounding how to show social media has a Return on Investment. Panelists included: Craig Daitch, Social Media Manager at Ford Motor Company; Eric Swayne, Dir. Social Analytics & Insights at M/A/R/C Research; Liz Strauss from Inside-Out Thinking; Matt Ridings, Diclofenac price, My Diclofenac experience, Co-Founder and CEO of SideraWorks; and Petri Darby, Dir, Diclofenac use. Diclofenac photos, of Marketing at Make-A-Wish Foundation of America.
This panel illustrated through their experiences that social media's value is not accountable as a money-in-vs.-money-out model, where can i cheapest Diclofenac online, After Diclofenac, but rather as a "squishy metrics" model like user engagement, building trust, buy Diclofenac online cod, Diclofenac schedule, growing reach, and gaining insights around user behavior. Social media can have value that might not have an easy-to-quantify solution. Measuring results like growth year over year is more important than measuring activity such as "likes", kjøpe Diclofenac på nett, köpa Diclofenac online. Diclofenac dangers, Petri Darby from Make-A-Wish provided an example of social media's value that cannot be directly tracked to a donation amount. MAW went from producing stories in-house to a testimonial model where people tell their own stories online. The foundation has received thousands of stories through their website, which would have taken much more time and money to harvest internally. User-generated stories not only free up resources, but can ultimately inspire and drive readers to make a donation, Buy Diclofenac Without Prescription.
Craig Daitch from Ford Motors discussed how his company uses social media to gain valuable insights from market research conducted via social media platforms (e.g, Diclofenac price, coupon. Diclofenac no prescription, Facebook, Twitter), buying Diclofenac online over the counter, Purchase Diclofenac, build brand affinity through fan photos and stories, and provide a customer service platform for responding to an average of 2K user questions per week. Daitch said Ford is unable to successfully track all sales through social media since it can sometimes take customers up to 10 years to purchase a vehicle, Diclofenac pharmacy. Ordering Diclofenac online, Panelists proved there is value in a brand building trust via social media channels which may not be immediately measureable through ROI but, if done properly, japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal, Buy cheap Diclofenac no rx, will drive long term growth. Business goals should be established at the outset and results measured. For instance, is the higher goal to grow business, Diclofenac treatment, Diclofenac canada, mexico, india, build trust, increase user engagement, Diclofenac gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, Diclofenac street price, etc..
Perhaps most importantly for companies to consider, effects of Diclofenac, Diclofenac pictures, what's the ROI of not engaging in a social media marketing strategy. Buy Diclofenac Without Prescription, What happens if there is no brand presence in social media. What if there is no customer service provided or corporate presence via these means, Diclofenac over the counter. Is Diclofenac safe, Customer service alone should represent value and a dollar amount to a business.
So is there an answer to the social media ROI question that will make an organization's CFO happy? The panel's advice: Establish an ROI baseline for current marketing efforts and correlate that baseline to social media, purchase Diclofenac online no prescription, Diclofenac samples, which can then be used to measure its success.
While most attendees were disappointed with the panel's vague answers to the ROI question, low dose Diclofenac, Buy Diclofenac without a prescription, the key takeaway is not only should brands be actively present in social media, they should be measuring ROI based on the value that social channels can provide, order Diclofenac online overnight delivery no prescription.

Has Tesla considered protecting the driver and passengers from EMF radiation emitting from the battery pack?
I drive a hybrid and the EMF's are very strong in the car
causing me to become exhausted on a long trip.
There are materials to shield the passenger compartment from radiation and it could be added or offered as an option for those of us who are concerned about exposure.
Shielding materials are available, here's a link:
I believe this is an important issue and needs to be given some priority.
In Switzerland shielding materials are installed on rooftops of schools and other institutions before installing solar systems.
Robert, these is a good discussion of this topic at thr Club website... http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.php/2335-EMF-Radiation-and-the...
Hope this helps!
Shielding for solar systems? Seems a little strange since the panels are DC not AC. If there were any concern in an EV you'd think it'd be from the induction motor not the battery.
Radiation is good for you; a certain amount keeps the DNA repair mechanisms tuned up.
Electromagnetic energy at or below microwave frequencies simply doesn't have enough energy to break molecular bonds, so it cannot damage DNA. You need UV, X-rays, gamma rays or ionizing radiation to do that; none of which are generated by ordinary electronics and power systems.
"I drive a hybrid and the EMF's are very strong in the car causing me to become exhausted on a long trip."
How do you know that electromagnetic radiation is causing your problem? Is there no other factor of driving the car that could make you exhausted? For example, if you're paying more attention to the readouts, or you're driving technique is different, or the seating is different -- couldn't they at least be contributors, if not the cause?
Depending on the type of hybrid you're driving ( see http://j.mp/d6Q0UP ) you may find that you're not using that much electricity on a long trip anyway, if a gas engine is doing most of the work.
Interesting how many experts come out of the woodwork when the status quo is questioned.
Brian H - Where are you getting your information that EMF radiation emitting from electronic equipment is good for us, do more research please.
Douglas3 - Electromagnetic fields at or below microwave are a risk to some people. If you have any qualifications and evidence please post them because your statment is outdated considering the latest evidence. You must be reading the denial of the cell phone companies that their products are causing illness.
txjak- I drive an average of 40,000 kl a year and have driven my hybrid for more than 4 years. I have considered other factors and have narrowed the exhaustion to the EMF radiation. I also have challenges with my prostate. Recently I discovered materials to shield me from the EMF's. I will post the results after it is installed.
Robert, to be fair, I think you need to consider this...
Just as you have asked others here for more in depth proof to substantiate their assertions, you are subject to the same burden of proof to further support your observations.
My wife and I have logged over 230,000 kms in hybrids since 2005 and neither of us have observed anything in ourselves to support your position.
Ever used hands free systems in car? The ear plugs with your iPod? Here's what you do then: you put an magnet and electronics *inside* you head that goes in frequencies way higher than AC motor. Because effect of magnetic and electric fields have exponentially smaller effect the more distance they have those headphones cause a lot bigger EMF field to you than batteries or AC engine of wiring or anything in your car. Hundreds, maybe thousands of times higher.
Ever had any ill effects from them?
"Douglas3 - Electromagnetic fields at or below microwave are a risk to some people. If you have any qualifications and evidence please post them because your statment is outdated considering the latest evidence. You must be reading the denial of the cell phone companies that their products are causing illness."
Qualifications: P.Eng., M.Eng, B.A.Sc. with 26 years experience. Multiple patents, including several for electromagnetic particle sensors used on jet engines. So I am pretty knowledgeable about how electromagnetic fields interact with matter.
I was responding to Brian H, who implied that DNA damage could result from field exposure. This is impossible with the frequencies being used in an EV.
Now you could *cook* someone with enough microwave energy, but that would be heat damage. It also requires power levels massively higher than that produced by an "unintentional radiator".
EVs don't use microwave energy. They use VERY low frequencies for the chopper drive that runs the motor. If there is any microwave emission from an EV at all, the level will be orders of magnitude lower than that from a cell phone, which is actually designed to make microwaves. And even then, cell phone power levels are pretty low. You can't cook dinner with a cell phone.
You might want to read the October 2010 issue of Scientific American. In his Skeptic column, Michael Shermer wrote a very nice explanation, based on elementary physics, of why cell phones can't damage DNA.
robertcanada888 - I think the burden of proof rests with you. Scientific evidence that the hybrid you drive is causing the problem would probably get the attention of the manufacturer, especially if more people were making the same complaint.
I have a friend that is very concerned about radiation and other hard-to-detect health risks. He brought an EMF reader with him when I gave him a ride.
He didn't tell me the numbers, but after a minute of staring at his reader, he laughed and put it away, saying it wasn't high enough to worry about.
EMF is not a problem. I'm more concerned about the gas fumes I breathe in while I'm refueling at the local Shell station.
I was actually talking about environmental ionizing radiation. It's a variation on the "hygiene hypothesis" theme. A little radon is good for you!
I completely agree with Todd. If you are at a self service station- typically you "drip" 3 drops of gas every time you fuel up and this gets almost immediately vaporized. 20 drips = 1 ml. the math gets really complicated for exposure, but as a decent estimate to simplify calculations take a 3 ft sphere volume convert to liters and divide by 6 (lung volume) and multiply by 3 drips * 52weeks* 60 years/20 drop/ml. If you fuel up 1/week, over the course of your lifetime you would be breathing in about 7 mL and consider between 1 to 4% of that is benzene, that's alot of exposure to a known carcinogen and gasoline-potential carcinogen (causes cancer in rats) which can be avoided
You've assumed you inhale 100% of the vapors. It's probably a tiny fraction of 1%. It disperses and is carried away by any slightest breeze.
"Take the case of "an almost perfect study in a human population that demonstrates the highly significant protective effects of near-continuous exposure to gamma radiation." This case involved more than 180 apartment buildings that had been constructed in Taiwan in the early 1980s using recycled steel that was subsequently discovered to have been contaminated with radioactive cobalt-60. The 10,000 people who were housed there received large doses of radiation over a period of nine to 20 years that, according to LNT theory, should have led to a total of 302 cancer deaths over the 1983-2003 period studied, 232 of which would have been ordinarily expected had no radiation exposure occurred, with the additional 70 stemming from the exposure. To the researchers' surprise, however, only seven cancer deaths were found, 225 fewer than would have been expected had the buildings been free of radiation. Instead of radiation increasing the death toll by 30%, it may have reduced the death toll by a staggering 97%."
Gamma ray radiation is MUCH more powerful -- orders of magnitude -- than anything generated by an EV.
It's been tested before by several people. BEV's produce next to zero EMF in comparison to cell phones, and a cell is a LOT closer to your gray matter.
Electromagnetic Fields are everywhere. Even though the regular gas engine cars carry the EMF. As long as there is an electric current in a car, EMF is there. Regardless of how much the impact, it does not matter. Our bodies expose to the EMF fields every single minute. Whether we are in the car, on the phone, Bluetooth, at the house, in front of the computer, sitting and watching TV, or even just sit and do nothing.
The electric cars are delivering a huge amount of electric waves and vibrations that give the impact to our blood. A 30 minute drive with a Hybrid car. Manufacture of cars such as Audi, Mercedez, BWW and Porche give an added information about the technology they use in the car, example such as Audi MMI will produce EMF inside the car. Actually, even the manufactures know this. It is up to the consumers to make a right educated decision and solutions.
The test shown on the blood sample of Hans Joachim Stuck, a Racing Legend and his 2 sons in Germany on May 14 and May 15, 2011 at the Nurburgring race track with his Lamborghini LG 600, shown the result as follows:
1. Rouleaux formation and correlation at 72% value.
2. Filite (oxidativer Stres) at 8%
3. Neutrophile Granulozyt at 2%
After using the memon environmental technology that based on the standard light pectrum (Resonance and vibration), it neutralized the EMF in his lamborghini and the test result shows as follows:
1. Rouleaux formation and correlation at 23% value.
2. Filite (oxidativer Stres) at 1%
3. Neutrophile Granulozyt at 1%
There are more into this live test. I hope this will help you all.
Let me know if you have any questions.
No one has shown that electromagnetic waves from cell phones, electric motors, etc. are harmful.
The far higher level of danger from gasoline fires, exhaust fumes and pollution including oil spills, etc., has already been cited in this forum.
The smell of gasoline when you fill up (in fact vapor) is carcinogen.
bunk, above, has obviously had numerous EMF-induced short circuits. Condolences.
As a government scientist for 25 years with an MS in Toxicology who participated as a panel member on multiple human health risk assessments at the community level, I'm qualified to comment on the EMF issue. In the 1990s, USEPA published a risk assessment that addressed low frequency EMF and proposed risk based exposure levels to same. This resulted in the introduction of shielding to computer monitors and the like at considerable cost to industry and consumers. The agency later retracted the paper after it underwent peer review and was determined to be based on many false assumptions and it was relegated to junk science. Thus, there are no credible, peer reviewed studies that show EMF to be harmful to human health.
I drive a hybrid and the EMF's are very strong in the car
causing me to become exhausted on a long trip.
Because nobody becomes exhausted after a long trip in an ICE car, right?
Sorry you're getting piled on like this, but your assertion is simply silly. We have many decades of data on the effect of low-level (and even high-level) EMF fields on people. The World Health Organization has a nice precisé here. Here's the salient quote:
In the area of biological effects and medical applications of non-ionizing radiation approximately 25,000 articles have been published over the past 30 years. Despite the feeling of some people that more research needs to be done, scientific knowledge in this area is now more extensive than for most chemicals. Based on a recent in-depth review of the scientific literature, the WHO concluded that current evidence does not confirm the existence of any health consequences from exposure to low level electromagnetic fields.
I'll grant the possibility that you're somehow uniquely sensitive to EMF and are in fact effected by driving a hybrid or electric car. If you really think this is the case, then you should stop doing so.
When are we not in the vacinity of emf? Those lights in the room are electric; the TV is electric; the ignition in the ice is electric; every wall in your home has wires - electic; every room at our place of work has wires in the walls and ceiling for electicity. In your town, do you have electic buses or trains? Electriciy is safe unless you become part of the circuit.

More sub-scientific confusion. You're talking about CO1=CO=Carbon Monoxide, which causes sleepiness, unconsciousness and death*. CO2 causes none of the above, unless it is displacing O2 in the air and causing suffocation. Which is uncomfortable, distressing, and will cause unpleasant death.

Children Need to Unlearn Violent Behavior
Editor's note: The following is an edited version of Howard Spivak's General Session address. Members may obtain complete copies of his speech by contacting Corrections Today, 8025 Laurel Lakes Court, Laurel, MD 20707-5075; (301) 206-5051.
It really is a pleasure to be here. I often speak to health professionals. I less often get an opportunity to interact with people from other professional areas, and I think, quite frankly, that it is the interdisciplinary dialogues and collaborations where solutions to this serious and growing issue of violence in this country are to be found.
I'd actually like to start with a personal story which I tell on occasion, not because it's earth-shattering but because it illustrates that violence affects all of us in a very personal way. About seven or eight months ago, I got a phone call from my sister-in-law who lives in a very affluent suburb of New York City. She was very distressed about her son, who at the time was almost 17, a junior in high school.
A classmate of his had come to their front door and asked to see my nephew. About 10 minutes later, my nephew walked back into the house all bloodied up. The classmate had two friends hiding in the bushes, and they beat up my nephew because this classmate's girlfriend was my nephew's lab partner and he was under the impression that my nephew was coming on to his girlfriend.
A police officer came to the house and took all of the information down and then turned to my nephew and said, "Well, young man, you have two choices. You can go to your nearest emergency room and document all of your injuries. Then you can come down to the police station and file a formal report and try to press charges, but nothing will happen. But you have another choice. You have friends, don't you?" Then he turned to my brother and said, "That's how we deal with problems, isn't it?"
The next day, my nephew gathered together about a dozen of his friends, who in turn gathered some of their friends, so they ultimately had a group of about 60 teen-age boys who beat the crap out of those three boys. Quite frankly, the only reason somebody wasn't hurt or killed is because nobody pulled a weapon. This episode typifies the kind of violence that young people are growing up with today and the values that we as a society are promoting.
The United States has the fifth highest homicide rate in the world. There are 25,000 homicides in this country every year and that's just the tip of the iceberg. For every one of those homicides, there are over 100 people with violent injuries. Homicide has become the second leading cause of death among teen-agers in this country and the leading cause of death among young black men and women ages 15 to 34. The cost to this country both in human and economic terms is enormous. The violent injuries that occur each year in this country cost approximately $60 billion over the life of the victims.
Violence is learned behavior. We are not born with an innate need to hurt each other. We learn to do that--we learn to value it. We teach it to our children and they learn to value it. They're learning it through child abuse and witnessing adult violence in their homes. Between one-third and one-half of families in the United States today experience some form of violence in their homes.
Children are also learning violence in their communities. If you walk into a high school classroom in any major urban area in this country today and ask the class how many people know somebody who has been murdered, every hand in the room will go up. If you ask how many have lost a relative to homicide, half or more of the hands will go up.
Physical violence is not the only violence young people are experiencing, particularly in our urban communities. Racism and poverty are forms of violence as well. This affects how people think about themselves and how they relate and behave in the larger world.
Children are learning about violence in their schools. …

Imipramine, synthetic drug used in the treatment of depression and enuresis (bed-wetting). Introduced into medicine in the 1960s, imipramine was the first tricyclic antidepressant, a class named for its three-ring molecular structure. Imipramine inhibits reuptake of the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and serotonin in the brain. It is usually administered orally but may be given by intramuscular injection. The drug has a wide variety of side effects, which include dryness of the mouth, blurred vision, constipation, difficulty in passing urine, and cardiovascular abnormalities.

If you are currently being treated with any of the following medications, you should not use cysteine supplements without first talking to your health care provider.
Blood pressure medications, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors -- NAC may enhance the blood pressure-lowering effects of ACE inhibitors, medications commonly used to treat high blood pressure. Examples of ACE inhibitors include benazepril (Lotensin), captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), and lisinopril (Prinivil).
Immunosuppressive medications -- Treatment with NAC may enhance the effectiveness of immunosuppressive medications such as azathioprine (Imuran), cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan), or prednisone (Deltasone). More research in this area is needed.
Cisplatin and doxorubicin -- Laboratory and animal studies have suggested that NAC may reduce the toxic effects associated with both cisplatin (Platinol) and doxorubicin (Ardiamycin), medications used to treat a variety of cancers. However, scientific studies are needed to see if these effects apply to people.
Nitroglycerin and isosorbide -- Although NAC may enhance the effectiveness of nitroglycerin and isosorbide (Isordil), two medications commonly used to treat chest pain. This combination may also increase the risk of side effects such as severe headaches and may lead to abnormally low blood pressure.
Oxiconazole -- Topical applications of NAC may increase the effectiveness of oxiconazole (Oxistat), an antifungal medication used for athlete's foot.

Dick Clark, 'American Bandstand' Host and New Year's Icon, Dead at 82 of Heart Attack
Dick Clark, whose 'American Bandstand' revolutionized the way we listen to music, died Tuesday morning at 82 as a result of a "massive heart attack."
For his youthful appearance and lifelong dedication to pop music, Clark was long ago dubbed "America's Oldest Teenager." Besides 'Bandstand,' which he hosted between 1956 and 1989, Clark was known for his annual New Year's Rockin' Eve party, which he first broadcast from Times Square in 1972.
Clark's health problems began in 2004, when he suffered a stroke that forced him to turn over the reigns of New Year's Rockin' Eve to current host Ryan Seacrest. Nevertheless, 2004 was the only year he didn't appear on the broadcast in some form, and has been doing the midnight countdown on the show for the last few years.
Clark was also a successful TV producer and game-show host, and owned an amazing Flintstone-style house in Malibu, CA, which he had recently put on the market. Some of his TV credits include 'The $25,000 Pyramid' and 'TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes.'
The Mount Vernon, NY native, who was married three times, is survived by his current wife Kari Wigton and three children from previous marriages.
We've pulled together some clips from Clark's career legendary career in entertainment. Check them out below.

The Nieuport 24 is part of the famous line of French fighter aircraft established by Edouard de Niéuport. A preeminent Allied airplane type, the Nieuport fighters were flown by many famous aces including Mannock, Ball, Bishop, Lufbery, Nungesser, and Guynemer.
Unlike many of the models that came before it, the Type 24 was more streamlined and had a rounded fuselage instead of the slab sides seen on earlier machines. The 24s were not only used by France, but also by Russia, Belgium, Italy, and Britain. The United States purchased a number of 24s to use for flight training.
The Museum of Flight's Type 24 was built from original plans in by a number of enthusiasts in Washington State. Ron Ochs finished the plane in 1992. First flown in 1995, the Nieuport is powered by a Le Rhône engine originally installed in a Thomas-Morse Scout plane.
The plane wears the markings of the Nieuport 24bis flown by French ace Paul Tarascon. After a plane crash in 1911, Tarascon's foot was amputated. But at the outbreak of war, he volunteered to fly and was known as l'as la jambe de bois (the ace with a wooden leg).
The name of Tarascon's plane, Zigomar, comes from a group of film serials popular before the war.

Born: February 08, 1920
Died: February 24, 2012
Dr. Rex Vernon Blumhagen, age 92, a resident of West Chicago, died peacefully at home on Friday, February 24. He was born on the Flathead Indian Reservation in Polson, Montana the second of five children of Cecile Mary Nunnely and Albert Emil Blumhagen on February 8, 1920.
He married his college sweetheart Jeanne Bourland on December 23, 1943. He attended Whitworth College in Spokane, Washington and graduated from Northwestern University Medical School. He served in the military during World War II.
Rex spent his life bringing medical care and cheer to people around the world. He is best known recently for his work at Central DuPage Hospital Emergency Room where he was one of two founding doctors. He also started the Stratford Urgent Care Center with his wife Jeanne.
His heart was in Afghanistan. He felt called to that country in his teenage years and spent his early adult years trying to get there. In 1960 he finally was able to take his young family there and he spent the next 35 years going in and out of Afghanistan. The centerpiece of his work was a hospital and outpatient clinics in the central highlands. He would go off on horseback to deliver babies and hold clinics in obscure tiny villages. He was adventurous and never happier than when he was driving off road and up mountains and on treacherous cliff sides that drove his wife crazy. Later he would start medical works in Nepal and Bangladesh and work out of Cyprus.
For most of his life he traveled around the world. In the early 60's he packed up his children in a Landrover and left Kabul, Afghanistan for an overland trip on dirt roads with no gas stations or ready water all the way to Barcelona, Spain. In an early homeschooling effort, he took his children to historical sites along the way: Percepolis, Cyrus Tomb, Babylon, Petra, Ephesus. Finally the car was put on a ship in Spain sailed to New York and driven to California. He visited every continent except Australia, Antarctica and sailed on every major world river from the Yellow River in China, the Amazon in Ecuador and the Nile in Egypt. He hiked in the Andes and Himalayas.
His last years were spent in his beloved garden. His artistic side was shown in his perennial long bed and his vast daylily beds. Every year he dreamed up a new garden or tile mosaic or fish pond. His wife, Jeanne despaired because as he dreamed of new and better beds, she was left to weed and maintain his last creation.
He was always interested in everybody else and wherever he went he made people feel as if they were the most special person in the world. His wife, Jeanne worked and lived by his side his whole life. He will be missed by his whole family and all who knew him.
His house faced the sunset but he looked forward to painting sunrises in heaven. He couldn't sing in life but he is singing now with the angels.
He is survived by his wife, Jeanne, four children, Dan William (Michelle) Blumhagen of Baker, WV, Susan Carol Blumhagen, (Larry) Fullerton of Trumbull, CT, Wendy Ann Tyler of Carol Stream, IL and Karyn Lee Blumhagen of Wheaton, IL, 9 grandchildren, Eric (Laura) and Andrew Blumhagen, Brian Tyler, Kimya (Joel) Fullerton Knecht, David (Kate) Fullerton, and Amy Fullerton, Derek (Leslie), Collin (Katy) and Jillian Berner, 7 great-grandchildren, Emma and Kira Blumhagen, Catherine and Alaric Blumhagen, and Elijah, Grant and Silas Knecht, and his brother Arnold Lloyd (Bettye) Blumhagen.
He was preceded in death by his parents and siblings, Ruth Margaret Blumhagen Rush, Delbert Earl and Albert Dale Blumhagen.
Visitation will be held at Hultgren Funeral Home, 304 N. Main St., Wheaton, IL on Monday, February 27, 2012 from 3 until 8 p.m. There will be a private funeral and internment the following day. A public memorial service will be held at College Church in Wheaton on Saturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:00 with a reception following in the Commons.
Memorials may be directed to Interserve USA, PO Box 418, Upper Darby, PA 19082-0418.

Smart Home Audio & Video
Location: 1295 Main St., Suite 1, Windsor
Contact: (970) 460-9679
Hours: 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday
David and Jen Allen are on a mission. They want to make your house a little bit smarter.
The Windsor couple, who moved from their longtime home in Page, Ariz., two years ago, just opened Smart Home Audio & Video, a business aimed at bringing high-tech benefits to their customers.
We focus on anything that could make your house more convenient, more energy efficient and just make it run a lot smoother, David Allen said.
Security is a big thing, but its also lifestyle changes that were after, he added. Were here to help people who dont like to look around the house for four different remotes that turn on three different boxes.
By streamlining everyday processes like turning on your television, Allen said he and Jen are hoping to make life a little easier for their patrons.
They also sell video equipment that, aside from being great for security, can be for personal use. One example is a parent checking video of their home to make sure their kids are there when they said they would be, Allen said. If theyre thousands of miles away from home on vacation, homeowners can remotely turn up the heat or check on their home if they hear of a winter storm rolling in.
Before opening Smart Home, Allen owned an auto repair facility in Arizona. After selling the business, the couple moved to Windsor. Jen Allen grew up in Boulder and has family all over Northern Colorado, so Windsor seemed like a nice place to settle down.
The Allens have been working since August to prepare their business, located in Althoff Chiropractics old building at 1295 Main St., Suite 1. While they didnt make any structural changes to the facility, Allen said almost everything else looks different, with new paint on the walls and high-tech gadgetry finally in place.
Its been going very very well, Allen said, adding that business was a little slow when they first opened Nov. 18, but its since picked up. Smart Homes official grand opening was held Saturday afternoon and marked the first time everything was in place and 100-percent complete, he added.
The support that weve got from everybody (in Windsor) has been just so tremendous, Allen said. Everybody is super helpful and its been wonderful.
We came from a smaller town so coming here was a jump for us, but its small enough and close-knit enough that we really enjoy it.

Builds on Valentina DB database, server
Paradigma Software is debuting a new line-up of Valentina data management and database products for Mac, Windows and Linux.

Better recovery, more robust management and recovery and industry-standard sequences support have been added to Valentina 5 databases, which are object-relational columnar systems that work far faster than relational databases when dealing with large numbers of records.
The company has also upgraded Valentina Server to version 5, including the database kernel and a Reports Server that supports open-source web application languages. The iValentina administrative companion iOS apps for monitoring, querying and managing Valentina servers is also available free from the App Store.

Sharp revives Pioneer's Elite TV badge with '720Hz' LCD sets
updated 12:00 pm EDT, Thu August 4, 2011
Sharp Elite TVs pack intelligent contrast, refresh
Sharp took advantage of its rights to Pioneer's Elite name by launching its own range of Elite TVs. Now using LCDs, the 60-inch Pro-60X5FD and 70-inch Pro-70X5FD both have a unique scanning backlight effect that goes beyond 240Hz; the company claims an equivalent to about 720Hz. Both have an Intelligent Variable Contrast system that purportedly goes beyond usual dynamic contrast to tune the brightness and the backlight for maximum effect.
Support is also a unique touch: the Internet access can be used by special agents to setup or make basic picture calibration online instead of an expensive home visit.
All of the current setts have Sharp's signature Quattron panel, which adds a yellow sub-pixel that should help improve the overall accuracy. The Elites have a true LED backlight with diffusing and local dimming to both produce a more even lighting and improve the contrast in dark scenes. As with other sets in the class, it supports active shutter 3D as well as Internet apps like CinemaNow, Netflix, Vudu, and YouTube.
The new Elites will be available before the end of the month in higher-end stores and custom installers. Prices will start off at $6,000 for the 60-inch Pro and move to $8,500 for the 70-inch version.

Simmons back in lineup after thumb injury from head-first slide
ATLANTA — Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons' left thumb sprain kept him out of two games — but he was back in the lineup for Monday's game in Miami.
The injury was an opportunity for Ramiro Pena to join the lineup after his strong play during the spring — and it also taught Simmons a lesson about the risk of sliding head first.
"For me, it's OK," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said about the injury. "It's just day-to-day and gives Pena a chance a little bit. We always talk about how good our team is and one of my biggest challenges is playing everybody. And now Pena gets to play a little bit."
Simmons injured his finger while stealing second base during the third inning of Atlanta's 4-1 victory against the Cubs Friday night at Turner Field. Simmons finished the game and was originally in Gonzalez's lineup Saturday before getting scratched.
Simmons, who is batting lead off for the Braves, said he jammed the thumb on second base while trying to avoid the tag. He said it swelled overnight and was painful but tests confirmed that the strength is good.
"I feel good enough to go out there," Simmons said. "If it was up to me, I would put myself in the lineup. But I guess they are trying to make the best decision for the team and for myself, I guess, so I understand."
Gonzalez planned on Simmons out of Sunday's series finale against the Cubs even if Simmons was cleared to play, just to be safe.
Simmons fractured his right pinkie finger while sliding head first into second base in July 2012. He missed more than two months with that injury.
Simmons said he doesn't plan to stop sliding head first.
"It's just how I feel faster," he said. "Maybe (I can) put something on my hand that makes it easier sliding, but I doubt if I plain just stop sliding head first."
Gonzalez, speaking on the subject of head-first slides after Friday's game, said "you can't shrink wrap them, you've got to let the guys play." He didn't know at the time that Simmons would end up needing to miss a day but he's still realistic about the subject.
MIAMI — The bad news for the Braves was that Freddie Freeman, who was off to a hot start, went onto the disabled list just five games into the season.
The good news was that at least they had Chris Johnson to take over at first base.
Johnson was sharing time at third with Juan Francisco. Now both will get to be in a lineup that must carry on without its cleanup hitter.
Freeman, who was 7-for-17 with a home run and five RBIs, winced and grabbed his side after an eighth-inning single on Saturday and was put on the disabled list Sunday with a right oblique strain.
The left-handed hitter was unhappy about having to go on the DL, insisting that he could play through the soreness. But the Braves choose to be cautious, not wanting Freeman to aggravate the injury and possibly be sidelined much longer than 15 days.
"Sometimes we have to protect players from themselves," general manager Frank Wren said.
Johnson, acquired from Arizona as part of the Justin Upton trade, also had a good spring, hitting .361 with three homers and 12 RBI. But when Francisco hit .333 with six homers and 14 RBI, manager Fredi Gonzalez elected to platoon the right-handed hitting Johnson and lefty-swing Francisco at third base.
Johnson had played in just six games at first base previously in his major league career, but manned the position in college and saw extensive action there during spring training.
To take Freeman's spot on the active roster, the Braves promoted former major league infielder Blake DeWitt from Class AAA Gwinnett. He supplies a left-handed bat off the bench.
Freeman tweaked his side during a workout March 31, but homered in his first at-bat the next night in the season opener and had shown no issues until late in Saturday's game.
"I'm not hurt to the point that I can't play," Freeman said.
Freeman avoided going on the disabled list last season despite dealing with hand, knee and eye issues and seemed poised for a banner season after hitting .342 with seven homers and 16 RBI in spring training.
UPTON BROTHERS: Justin Upton's dramatic game-winning home run on Saturday gave him five homers this season, making him the first player since 1900 to hit five home runs in his first five games with a team. It was the fifth two-homer game and second game-winning homer of his career.
After going homerless on Sunday, Upton hit No. 6 of the season in the fifth inning on Monday.
B.J. Upton hit leadoff for the third game Monday in place of shortstop Andrelton Simmons, who has a sprained thumb and hit in the eight hole Monday.
Upton was 2-for-6 with three walks and a home run in his first two games as leadoff hitter.
Upton said he doesn't care where hit bats in the order.
NEW CLEANUP HITTER: Catcher Evan Gattis was moved up to fourth in the batting order on Sunday. He hit eighth in his two previous starts.
Gonzalez said Friday, "He's our second fourth-place hitter, that's why he's batting eighth."
Gattis went 0-for-3 with a walk on Sunday, but drew raves for his work behind the plate from starter Tim Hudson.
With Freeman out of the lineup, Gattis hit in the cleanup spot again Monday.

Snowflakes in Knoxville
Posted By News On November 11, 2009 @ 6:24 am In Today's Local News | Comments Disabled
Lighted Snowflakes were hung up at the intersections on the Knoxville square this week. That's according to Dennis Webb of the Knoxville Public Works department, who says a total of 28 snowflakes are planned to be hung. He says crews are enjoying the warm weather in putting up the four-foot lighted snowflakes, which are part of the Knoxville Streetscape Committee's efforts to prepare the downtown for the holidays. People on the square also heard holiday music Tuesday, as Iowa Telecom was testing the Knoxville Chamber of Commerce's speaker system on the square, which it hopes to have running in time for the holidays.

'Twas the fall of 1958 when our professors at McLaughlin Hall announced that we were all going on a field trip to tour some of the largest steel fabricators in the country. As a bonus, they scheduled it to coincide with the weekend that the Gaels were playing the McGill Redmen.
In anticipation of a great weekend, I tried to calculate the amount of money I would need: splitting the cost of a hotel room, buy meals, cigarettes, attend the football game, etc. Cash was short, because most of my summer earnings had already gone on tuition, books, and the first few months of room and board. As I now recall, I was even wearing my father's cast-off underpants (size 42) with a safety pin at the waist-band to reduce the girth to my size 32 (in 1958……not now).
So I stuffed $40 into my pocket on Wednesday afternoon and trotted off to meet the bus and my classmates for the bus ride to Montreal.
* * * *
Our hotel turned out to be the aptly-named "Queen's Hotel", on one of Montreal's side streets not far from rue Ste.Catherines. Wednesday night was quiet as we organized our bedrooms and temporary room-mates. But Thursday night turned out to be "hi-jinx" night: As Ray Healey was preparing for a shower, a bunch of us grabbed him with nothing on but his jockey shorts, carried him bodily down the hall and into the elevator, then pressed the button labeled "LOBBY".
Our field trips to General Electric, Pratt and Whitney, and Dominion Engineering were most impressive. We walked for what seemingly were miles and miles. I had never seen such huge milling machines and horizontal lathes. But, on Friday night, as tired as we were, we decided to explore downtown Montreal.
First stop was the "Chez Paris", a strip club where the cover was $2.00 each, but we tipped the doorman an extra $2.00 to get a good seat, close to the stage where the viewing was best. Ray Healey and I were sitting side-by-side when, after only a few minutes had passed, two scantily-clad girls appeared and sat down beside each of us.
Not knowing what my next move would be, I overheard Ray ask "What can I get you to drink?"
"Some wine, please" was the answer.
"A nice entrée, Ray", I thought to myself. So I asked the same question to the toughie sitting next to me.
In less than a minute, a waiter arrived at our table, cracked open a bottle, poured four glasses, and handed me the bill.
I blanched.
$37.00 !!!
I handed the bill to Ray. He blanched.
It was Mumm's Champagne.
Both Ray and I stormed out of our chairs and chased down the waiter, hoping for an explanation and some form of concession.
"Je regrette" said the waiter. "C'est la vie. And if you make furder fuss, you talk to boss".
Ray and I eventually located the head waiter, argued our case for being poverty-stricken students from out of town, who didn't know the rules, and couldn't pay this exorbitant amount. We sawed it off at $20, ten dollars from each of us. By the time we got back to our table, the champagne bottle was empty, our cigarettes had disappeared, and the girls were nowhere to be seen.
When we eventually returned to our hotel room, I was so angry with my stupidity, I jumped on the bed and it broke under the shock of my weight. Hence, another $10 was added to my final hotel bill.
* * * *
Saturday night arrived, and somehow I had arranged a date (don't remember how) for the dance with a McGill cheerleader. Melba Richardson was an absolute cutie, with a round, smiling face and short, perky brown hair. But being penniless, I felt uncomfortable all night. Our dancing was clumsy, and our conversation was strained. And it became even more strained when I advised her that she would have to pay for her own taxi fare home, because I was out of money.
I never heard from Melba again.
HAPPY MEMORIES?? Not all of them. But I was happy for the lessons in not-what-to-do.

Away back in the dark ages (1958-59), 4th year Miners took a Mineral Dressing lab every Saturday morning from
8:00-12:00 in the basement of dear old Nichol Hall. The object of the exercise was to perform tests on known
samples of milled ores to determine the amount of gold and silver in each, and thus the potential value of the ore.
After the appropriate preparation of each specimen, the next step involved placing it in the furnace for the smelting process to produce a bead of precious metal for further analysis. The smelting process alone normally took up to 2 hours, during which time we had to sit, watch and wait.
Resourceful fellows that we were and wanting our time used to best advantage, we sometimes took up a collection
to cover the cost of Catawba (a fine libation priced at $0.75 per bottle at the LCBO outlet out by the traffic circle on Princess Street) where one of our members (who shall remain nameless) drove to acquire it while others washed out beakers so that it could be consumed in style.
To get rid of the evidence, the empties were buried deep in the bottom of the sample bins, and were hopefully found eventually by successive years. It may not have been our best use of our available learning time, but I'm sure the mention of "Catawba" to any "59" Miner will bring at least a small smile to his face.
Hope you enjoy this recollection of a small part of my time at Queen's.
All best wishes,
Ian (D.I.) Campbell
Mine is the smile on Carl Gorham's face when I body blocked Charlie Sellens (Gaels football lineman - photo below) as he was about to hammer Carl for dumping his bed for making too much noise...
That ended the possible destruction of many pieces of Carl...the smile resulted as I became Charlie's focus of attention. I survived!

Summertime, and the livin' is easy …. what a song, what a story. Porgy & Bess, George Gershwin, first produced as a stage show in 1935 and enjoyed many revivals. I saw it as a movie in the 60's.
And the livin' is easy
Back when I was between my 2nd and 3rd year of electrical engineering at a southern Ontario university, I was lucky to get a job with the Ontario Hydro as a summer student working at an old hydro (water) powered generating station on the Montreal river, just outside of Cobalt, Ontario. Cobalt was a mining town, with the houses arranged around a long sloping curve of the Northland Railway. Some wit suggested the town was produced when a train went too fast through the curve and flung the houses into the side of the hill. There was still one working mine (cobalt etc.) with the other main employer being the railway.
Being a student and already in debt I sought the economies of lodging in a private home c/w eating privileges.
My first host was an amiable French Canadian railway laborer, his suspicious and untalented cook of a wife, and a daughter a few years my junior. As an example of the repast we enjoyed, most of the main evening meals were a product of 'the frying pan', the one kitchen utensil the wife claimed mastery over. One memorable night we dined on chicken bits that had been 'sautéed' in the oil of the Smelt fish we had endured the previous evening. Not a blue ribbon attempt, even for a poor student. By the way, the husband was as thin as the rails he maintained, obviously able to hold his tongue as he guarded his stomach.
Being 20 and vigorous, my initial physical outlet on arriving was to come home from work and go for a run along the railway right-of –way just below the house. The door to my bedroom was a 2 part saloon type swinging door with the inevitable gap in the middle. One afternoon after a run and a shower, I felt a female presence in the hall availing herself of my naked body. For some unexplained reason the next day I was invited to find alternative lodgings. Not sure if I was that bad or that good?
My next accommodation was at the home of an elderly Irish widow who also housed another of the hydro crew. This was heaven! Cecilia had a heart of gold, a quick wit, and a steady hand in the kitchen. I enjoyed the comforts of a real home, congenial companions, and the output of a great cook.
My next foray was into the social scene. Through chance, or the local grapevine, I soon met a 3rd year dentistry student whose father was the local pharmacist. Jake and I hit it off immediately and soon we were sharing his motorcycle, our passion for hardball, beer, and a common latent desire to deflower as many local gals as possible. We joined the local baseball team, enjoyed post-game beer events, and beetled about town and to Jake's family cottage on a lake just south of town.
There were not a lot of 'entertainment' outlets in Cobalt. A couple of small restaurants and a hotel with a well established beer parlor. Some of the feats of beer consumption that emanated from that parlor where local legends, not readily equaled.
Through Jake, I met a clutch of local damsels about our age who were easily intrigued by our southern Ontario university worldliness and our faculty jackets. Good people. As a group we would meet most evenings in a local ice cream/hotdog place and share our stories. The owner liked having us there as it was next door to the beer parlor and I think he felt it raised the tone for prospective customers.
Of the many attempts we engineered to entice the local pulchritude to more advantageous surroundings, one event stood out for its uniqueness.
One of the miners where Jake worked for the summer told him of a sure-fire potion that would melt all inhibitions and deliver desired results. The key ingredients were equal parts of grape juice and cheap champagne.
Two particularly toothsome sisters were selected and after some mild persuasion we all ended up at Jake's family cottage by the lake. The lake was calm and warm, but that was a side issue. We soon repaired to the living room and suggested some mild refreshment. After some prompting and explaining our choice of a flavorful grape juice based summer cocktail, we quickly produced our first batch. Our dates were still skeptical, so to prove our benevolence, Jake and I downed a couple of glasses. The assumption being that our beer hardened metabolisms would not easily succumb to our 'punch de jour'. Sadly, that turned out to be a cruel fallacy. My enduring memory of that evening was of lying facedown on the end of the boat dock, bringing up everything right down to my socks, while trying to remind myself our mixture was not all that lethal. In his haste to write down the formula, Jake obviously, had neglected to inquire about a suitable dosage.
I'm not quite sure how our dates made it back to town, but subsequent smirks suggested that while a complete failure, it had been one of the better attempts to claim their chastity.
The rest of the summer produced many more highlights and good memories ….. and the livin' was easy!
Memory added January 22, 2012
In January, 2012, three Chemical '59ers from the Niagara Peninsula area, organized a quick trip to Rochester, New York and to the home of Bruce Amm, another "chemical guy". Bruce apparently is experiencing a few health issues, and was overjoyed with the company.
In case age has disguised the four, from the right they are: Bruce Amm; Umeo Nakano; Marv Kriluck and Toby O'Brien.
Memory added January 17, 2012
During our Saturday evening reunion banquet on October 15, 2011, we asked our first-year student guests (four of our bursary recipients attended), if they were familiar with a "slide rule" and what it did, because it is featured on our class crest that Norm Douglas designed. With blank stares at one another, and a shrug of their collective shoulders, they admitted that they had never heard of a "slide rule".
We explained to them that it was a magical piece of hardware that every engineer carried, and there was even a special slide rule pocket in our Science jackets. It was about the size of a ruler, and it could multiply, divide, calculate natural logs and log 10, sines, cosines, tangents, it cost less than $20, weighed only a few grams, and it DIDN'T NEED BATTERIES. They were in awe.
Then Ted Fiander (Mechanical '59) sent me this old photo featuring a slide rule doing calculations on the Queen's Heating Plant efficiency, and I thought it was worth passing along. The cat (named "Feedwater") was a permanent resident at the old boiler room, and probably would have done better on my Thermo 4 exam than I did.
If any other Science '59ers have "Happy Memories" you'd like to share, please send them to Alan Hallworth or Carey Morrison. We will post them here. Check back regularly! Cha Gheill!

Interesting News and Notes from In and Around the Spartan Nation
- MSU Basketball The meltdown that will ensue if the Spartans are blown out this week against UNC will not be pretty. Coach Izzo has talked about wanting to be elite and the expectations that come with it. The Spartans looked terrible against Maryland, beat a bad Oklahoma State and didn't have an easy time with Wichita State. This is also a team that struggled at IPWF and UNC is far superior to any of them. Izzo has a fan base that affords him facilities that are amongst the best in the nation and better than many pro venues, the top salary in college basketball and the fans expect more. Something he wanted and has gotten. Is this team as good as UNC? No, but they certainly aren't as bad as they have looked. There is no shortage of confidence in the Spartan Nation for Izzo and this season he will be highly scrutinized. He has quietly for years spoken about the Final Four at Ford Field. The fans and those around the program that have those expectations are not wrong to have them. I also think that Tom Izzo has earned the right to be judged at the end of the season rather than at the beginning. Some fans need to keep that in mind and withhold judgment as they meltdown over how the season has started.
- Brian Kelly Brian Kelly, the former CMU head coach was the front-runner to get the Tennessee job that shockingly went to fired Raider Coach Lane Kiffin. So what happened? Tennessee was, "Made aware," that Coach Kelly, "Wasn't interested at this time," according to a source with DIRECT knowledge of the situation. Kelly has told me before on more than one occasion that Notre Dame is his dream job.
- Notre Dame The question is not if Charlie Weis is done at Notre Dame, but when. If Notre Dame is able to get Urban Meyer to leave Florida it will be a no brainer that the Irish make the change. Notre Dame is Meyer's dream job and one source close to Urban told me Sunday night, "It is my opinion that if they would let him coach the national championship game (if he beats Bama) that he would leave for the Irish job. It is his dream and he would have done about as much as you can at Florida." One thing that people are not considering is Brian Kelly. He has a lot of support among Irish insiders and if they can't get Meyer, I would be shocked if he didn't get the job. There is a reason that Kelly or to be politically correct those near him let Tennessee know that he wouldn't be interested. Many close to the program feel Kelly thinks he has the green light from Notre Dame, but if they can get Urban he may be stuck without a high profile job that he craves. Here is another tid bit. The new Notre Dame Athletic Director has scheduled a meeting with Coach Weis next Monday. The only thing that will keep Charlie at ND is if the AD can't raise the millions that they buy out will take. That is not likely.
- Marinelli/Lions Monte Kiffin is on his way to Tennessee with his son Lane. One thing that I have heard twice in the last 24 hours from two separate sources is that the Bucs can stomach the loss because they are VERY CONFIDENT that Rod Marinelli will be fired and Gruden would willing take Marinelli back as the DC.
- More Lions Speculation is mounting from sources around the league that the Lions will look outside of the organization for a GM. Word is also that WCF is being, "Pushed hard," to retain Tom Lewand from his son as President. If that is the case (and I believe it is) this will go over like a lead balloon. One highly placed source inside the NFL told me this morning, "There is no way he can do that. If Mayhew is not retained and Lewand is how in the world could that be justified? The Lions fans are loyal, but they aren't stupid. He has to clean house."
- More Lions and this may be good news? Outside of WCF doing all Lions fans a favor and selling the team, there is a next best option. WCF should fire and clean house and hire Scott Pioli from the Patriots. He is a brilliant football mind and can and will surround himself with great people. Pioli is the son-in-law of Bill Parcells and is a former Executive of the Year. WCF is a good man (I am so sick of having to keep saying that, but you have to or people think you hate the guy) but he is a meddler that has tied the hands of his GM's for years. I hate to say it, but fans come up with pie in the skies hopes of names that they want, but good football people are not coming here or anywhere to be second guessed and over ruled by an owner who hasn't and can't won anything. If Ford won't sell the team, the Lions best option is to head to New England and pay Pioli $5 million per year to be President and GM. Give him total control, in writing with full football authority. Sell Pioli that WCF and Jr. will stay out of the decision-making. Now you ask for what good news I might have? Pioli is interested in the Lions job if he would have total and complete authority. He's interested and not talking to him would be dumb. However, we have come to expect dumb moves from this organization.
- Have you booked your trip to Orlando? All signs point to the Spartans going to Orlando for the January 1 Capital One Bowl game. The Spartans need to root for USC to simply take care of business and beat UCLA. The bad taste of the PSU game isn't gone, but a 9-3 record and a great January 1 bowl game sure put the season is perspective.

Intense Toilet Domination
You are a random guy I picked up at a bar the night before. I brought you back to my place for the night. I thought would end in me getting off. However, when we go back to my place I wanted you to go down on me. You politely tell me that you don't go down on women you had just met. This really disappointed me causing my domineering side really kicked in. I drugged you and decided to teach you a lesson. You awake the next morning, tied up on the floor in my bathroom, with a strange chair above your face. I am standing over you drinking a cup of coffee. I greet you and tell you what I've done to you. I tell you how disappointed I am that you wouldn't eat my pussy the night before and how horny I still am. I tell you that I would've rocked your world but now I am just going to punish you. I explain how it really gets me off to dominate men. I tell you that you are my slave. I have to use the bathroom", then I turn away from you and pull down my pants .I look back at you and tell you to open up and get ready to drink my piss. You resist and complain but I threaten you. You finally comply. I sit down on the chair over your mouth and piss. I return about an hour later. I tell you that I have a huge surprise for you I "have to take a huge dump". I demand that you open. You refuse. I threaten to suffocate you if you don't. You finally open a little bit. I turn to look down at you and yell "wider". I tell you I'm not kidding about how big this dump is going to be. You open wider and I then proceed to unload a huge load into your mouth and face. I start to laugh at how big my pile is and how your mouth and face are covered by it. I then demand you start to chew and eat it. You try to comply but start to gag. This pisses me off. I remove the chair from over you. I sit right on my pile, squishing it between my ass and your face. I scream at you to swallow or else I'm not getting up. I grind on it until you finally swallow. I turn to look at you and laugh at the bigger mess I've made of you. I am really turned on by how much I've dominated you. I start to finger myself. Telling you to start jerking yourself off
In this Video, Fatime still could not believe this Toilet Slavery Thing and only continued, because Her best Friend Ashly and Daniela kept hidding on her to poop on this Guy, but as nervous as she was, she only could pee

BATON ROUGE, La. — A 12-year-old student faces multiple charges after he allegedly fired a gun at his school bus on Friday.
According to the Baton Rouge Police Department, the suspect had an altercation with another student on the bus on Friday afternoon. Police said that when the 12-year-old got off of the bus, he ran into his home, grabbed a handgun and fired three shots, striking the bus all three times.
No one was injured in the shooting.
Police began a search for the suspect, who had fled the scene. He was found about two hours later.
