President Obama Signs Executive Order Supporting Service Members, Veterans, Military Spouses, and Their Families
Earlier today, I had the great privilege of joining the President and First Lady -- along with an amazing 10,000 soldiers, military families, and veterans -- at an extraordinary event in Fort Stewart, Georgia, home to the Army's famed 3rd Infantry Division.
The President and First Lady traveled to Fort Stewart to meet with soldiers and families -- and to sign an Executive Order (EO) that will positively impact the educational benefits and opportunities for our nation's heroes and their families -- for a long time to come.
We know from travels throughout the country -- and through feedback from veterans, our troops and their families – that education is a big deal. Opportunities provided through educational programs such as the Post 9/11 GI Bill open doors.
And I know that on a personal level. Like many servicemembers, I have used the benefits of the Post- 9/11 GI Bill to further my education -- and that of my children.
At Fort Stewart, the President renewed his commitment to fully fund the post-9/11 GI Bill. With that bill -- and the Tuition Assistance program -- more than 550,000 veterans and 325,000 service members pursued education last year. Additionally, nearly 38,000 military spouses used their Military Spouse Career Advancement Account (MyCAA) benefit to advance their education.
But sometimes…navigating through the maze of schools and opportunities can be a challenge. Many service members, veterans and families know exactly what I mean.
They go online to try and find the best school that fits their goals; they end up on a website that looks official; they get promised to get connected with a program looks promising. Unfortunately -- and all-too-often -- our troops and families find themselves dealing with folks who aren't interested in helping them find the BEST program -- but they are happy to take their money. Our service men and women may get forced into making a quick decision. And sometimes recruiters from these schools show up on bases.
As the President said, one of the worst examples of this is a college recruiter who visited Camp Lejeune and enrolled Marines impacted by Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) -- the nature and severity of their injuries were so significant, that the affected Marines couldn't remember the courses the recruiter signed them up for -- but that didn't stop the recruiter.
That's just wrong.
But practices like that -- and so many others -- will be coming to an end as a result of today's order signed by the President.
In short, the EO is designed to combat unscrupulous practices used by schools to gain access to the military/veteran education benefits; it protects the full range of military/veteran education benefits programs, including Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits, the Tuition Assistance program, and MyCAA; and, its provisions focus on ensuring students have the proper information, support, and protections they need to make informed decisions about their educational options.
Here's what the EO delivers for our veterans, military service members, spouses and their families:
- Provide students with educational and financial information to make informed decisions. The EO will require institutions to provide prospective military and veteran students with the Administration's Financial Aid Shopping Sheet ("Know Before You Owe") to help students understand the total cost and quality of their education, including: tuition and fees, the availability of federal financial aid, estimated student loan debt upon graduation, and information about student outcomes like graduation rates.
- End fraudulent and aggressive recruiting techniques on and off military installations. The EO will require that VA and DoD improve their oversight of improper recruiting practices so that they are consistent with the regulations already in place at ED for title IV Federal student aid programs. The Principles of Excellence will also establish and strengthen solicitation rules to reduce access to military bases for bad actors.
- Ensure support services for service-members and veterans. The EO will provide military and veteran students with clear educational plans, academic and financial aid counseling services with staff that are familiar with VA and DOD programs, and the ability to more easily re-enroll and receive a refund if they must leave school for service-related reasons.
- Develop and collect service member- and veteran-specific student outcome data. The EO will require DoD, VA, and ED to develop student outcome measures, such as completion rates, and collect data to be made available on Ed's College Navigator website. DoD, VA, and Ed will also improve data collection regarding which schools veterans are selecting to use their education benefits.
- Create a centralized complaint system for students receiving military and veterans' educational benefits. The EO require DoD and VA, in consultation with ED, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and DOJ, to create a centralized complaint system for students receiving military and veterans' educational benefits to register complaints against educational institutions. Additionally, VA's State Approving Agencies will receive and process these complaints and share these complaints with appropriate federal and state agencies.
- Begin the process to trademark the term "GI Bill." The EO will require the VA to initiate a process to trademark the term "GI Bill" and other steps to curb websites and programs that deceptively market veterans' educational benefits.
Today's signing by the President is a BIG step forward in preserving -- and enhancing -- the educational opportunities for those who have served, as well as their families.

Buses are horrible. Everyone has had to ride one sometime or another. So everyone knows the dread of riding a bus. There are some buses that barely have any kids on them while others have more than what should be allowed.
Every year or couple of years, you'll hear about, or it is, a stop that gets switched buses because they have such a large number of kids that get on and off at that stop. You also have the stops that have to wake up to get on a bus at a time that is still over an hour before school starts.
It isn't fair to the kids who have an incredible amount of kids that move into their particular neighborhood every year. Or to the kids that get chosen to be the first stop of the morning, and then have to decide when they will get up for school that gives them enough time to get ready and do whatever they need to do and still make the bus.
There are many simple things that can be done to change this.
School could easily start a half hour later or even fifteen minutes later, and add a couple more buses so that some buses don't have an unsafe number that's about 70 kids, while others have about 30 so that everyone can get their own seat.

The three of us in the sports office could not be more different. We each have different interests, yet at the same time we work incredibly well together. We make a great team. So during these past three days where Jamie and Josh's vacations overlapped, I've been working by myself…which is great to a point. Then I find myself desperate for human interaction.
Anyway, one positive to working alone is the free reign to cover what you please. Sure we still cover/report the important stuff such as UK..but every four years my brain becomes consumed with the World Cup. I know people say soccer isn't that big of a sport here in America yet (see Josh's previous blog about how Americans celebrated our win over Ghana #awesome) but that doesn't mean for the few handfuls of us that love it can't get incredibly hyped up for it.
I started playing soccer when I was 8 years old. I played in middle school and high school. Was I good? No. Absolutely not. I played defense because my brain couldn't comprehend kicking a ball into a huge net box. I was just decent at running over another girl and taking the ball away from her before she could kick it in the huge net box. But I loved it. I still love it.
In my ancient age I can't move as swiftly as I used to (which still wasn't very fast), so I just watch every possible match I can to satisfy my need to act like I can still kick the ole ball around. This is my first World Cup as an employed adult..so the past three days I've had to resist the urge to run World Cup highlights in my sportscast because I realize that not everyone else cares that Iran and Argentina played early Saturday afternoon and the great Lionel Messi scored a goal in stoppage time (soccer lingo) to beat Iran. I get it..but that doesn't mean I want to. I've resorted to posting lots of articles to the web about it, and posting this somewhat gibberish blog. But my excuse is I've been working by myself and this is probably a conversation I eventually would have had with Josh or Jamie today if one of them was working.
Happy wedding day Josh!

Silvercorp CEO Says Company May Become Target of a Takeover Bid
Silvercorp Metals Inc., the Canadian miner accused of fraud in two anonymous reports, may be vulnerable to a takeover after its shares declined, Chief Executive Officer Rui Feng said.
"I'm worried our company will now become the target of a takeover," Feng said yesterday in a telephone interview. "I'm very concerned because compared to our peers, our stock should be C$15 to C$16. Now we are about C$6 and people may take advantage of the situation."
Silvercorp rose 44 cents, or 6.8 percent, to C$6.90 at 4:16 p.m. yesterday in Toronto Stock Exchange trading. The shares have dropped 19 percent this month. Silvercorp, which describes itself as China's largest silver miner, denies the allegations and says it's the victim of short sellers who are trying to drive the shares lower.
"Whether it's a mining company, a hedge fund or a private equity firm that really knows for sure that everything is legit, they'll cobble the coin together right now and put in a bid," John Goldsmith, a Toronto-based money manager at Montrusco Bolton Investments Inc. who manages about C$500 million ($508 million), said in a telephone interview. He doesn't hold Silvercorp shares. "The question then becomes, what's the likelihood that Silvercorp's shareholders would approve."
On Sept. 2, Vancouver-based Silvercorp denied allegations contained in an anonymous report that was sent to Canadian regulators. The document, which was circulated by e-mail, alleged Silvercorp reported a profit in calendar 2010 to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission while posting a loss to regulators in China.
Share Buyback
The second report was posted Sept. 13 on Alfredlittle.com, a website that publishes research about companies doing business in China. The report questioned the quality of Silvercorp's ore and the volume of sales to a related party.
Muddy Waters LLC, the research firm founded by short seller Carson Block, said Sept. 13 it was betting Silvercorp would drop following the publication of the second report.
Sino-Forest Corp., a Chinese timber company, slid 74 percent in Toronto from June 1, the day before Muddy Waters published a report accusing it of fraud, through Aug. 25, the last day before regulators halted trading of the shares.
Silvercorp has acquired more than C$31 million of its shares since announcing June 17 a bid to buy back stock, it said today in a statement. The company said it plans to purchase more stock. Feng bought 100,000 shares at an average price of $7.87 apiece on Sept. 6, according to Canadian filings.
Feng declined to comment on whether he has received any indication a bid for Silvercorp is being prepared.
"I think a lot of people have figured out already that this company is real," Feng said. "I didn't run. I've been on the road to talk to my investors, the No. 1 and No. 2 big shareholders."

West Seattle Crime Watch: Threat report; question; burglarySeptember 3, 2011 at 4:48 pm | In Crime, West Seattle news | 47 Comments
Three reader reports in this West Seattle Crime Watch roundup – read on:
Dotti e-mailed to share this story:
I live on 25th S.W. between Juneau and Findley. At about 1:30 today I was coming home from my daily walk with my 90 pound Black Lab. I was just coming out of the Longfellow Creek trail head on Juneau and 25th when I noticed a young man going east bound on Juneau. He said something and started running toward Delridge and I assumed that he had just missed his bus. I waited for him to run by and then crossed the street.
I looked up the street towards Delridge to check for cars and noticed that he had stopped. He then ripped off his headphones and started yelling at me calling me all sorts of obscenities and saying he was going to kick my a…. I said, "what," totally shocked. He then started coming towards me while ripping off his coat and backpack. I continued walking away and he kept yelling and walking towards me as my neighbor down the block heard the commotion and as a very nice black woman in a car pulled over and ask me if I was ok. When I turned back the kid was gone and I am assuming he ran off.
Dotti says she has seen the boy in the neighborhood lately, adding that her teenage son thinks he recognizes the boy from school. She provided the possible name to police; we will not publish it as we don't identify people who are not charged with crimes, but what matters more would be the description. Dotti says "he is a white male in his late teens to early twenties, red buzz cut hair, tall (six foot or so), very thin and wears glasses. I said nothing to provoke this and I want to make sure that people are aware that this person seems very unstable. If he is willing to threaten a forty eight year old woman, who knows who else he could hurt. If I had been on the trail instead on my block, if my neighbor hadn't been there or the nice young woman who stopped to ask if I was ok, who knows what could have happened."
Next report: A WSB'er who lives at 15th/Cambridge in Highland Park wonders if anyone else heard/saw this incident last night, and if so, has any idea how it turned out (we didn't hear it on the scanner and the city map mentions only a "noise disturbance" call):
My fence is about 6ft high with very small gaps between slats that only give a somewhat helpful view of moving vehicles, and whether a person is walking, biking, etc. Walking to the fence and climbing on something to see, I assumed would be highly visible with my porch light, and opening my gate would trigger the motion sensor light.
Approximately 11:15 – 11:30pm, I was on my front porch when I heard someone approaching southbound on 15th from north of Cambridge. Something in the breathing told me they were crying, so I started listening carefully. In this area, I hear a lot of screaming fights, but never crying quietly. When the footsteps had crossed the intersection and was on the corner right on the other side of my fence, I heard unmistakable sobbing protest and a man's voice I couldn't make out yet.
At that point it sounded as though maybe he grabbed at her because I heard sandals scraping as if for traction, and she began saying "no", though not loudly. The rest of her words were in a sort of hopeless tone, as though she was paying no thought to possible help around. His words were much more faint, though obviously angry and threatening in tone. I heard him say "we're going home now Shannon." (my recall of her name may be wrong, but I'm fairly certain it was similar, perhaps Sharon). Her responses in the next short time were "no, oh god no" and "no. please. help." again, not really sounding as though to listeners. From him I heard a partial threat, which I recall less clearly as I was dialing 911 and hoping to find a place I could not be noticed. Something along the lines of "i swear I'm going to.. *unintelligible*." …
This is when I heard her running down southbound on 15th, toward Roxbury, though not with all-out speed you might think. She was crying and the only thing I heard her say until out of hearing, was "no", but multiple times. I heard no more talking from him, but I assumed he was still following her, as it sounded as though he made at least 1 grab for her at my driveway (I heard the same shuffling sandals sound and running pace change) and was unable to hear any more sounds at all once she got about halfway down 15th and was simply out of hearing.
Third and final report for this roundup, VPD reports a West Seattle break-in:
Just a heads up to neighbors in the vicinity of 51st Ave SW and Waite. Our home was broken into Wednesday between 10:30 am and 5 pm. The burglars tore out a screen, broke the stationery pane of a slider kitchen window; tilted the sliding section and forced it past a bar we keep positioned in the window base frame. They entered thru the window and walked across the dining room into the living room where we believe the motion detector picked them up and our alarm went off. They grabbed a Toshiba laptop we had in the living room and bolted out the back door leaving it wide open. Police determined they wore gloves so no prints.
This is the second hit to our home. The first time in 2005 the bars in our windows were deterrent enough to stop them after they cut the screens in the same kitchen window as well as another first floor window. They are obviously now more determined to get in.
If anyone saw anything suspicious in the area we would appreciate that information.
47 Comments
To Dotti I also have seen this person walking on 25th ave. when I have seen him he has an attitude that he is just hoping you will look at him or say some thing. He seems to be looking for trouble. I will keep my eyes and ears open.

Our car was vandalized outside our house at about 10pm last night near 48th Ave SW and Alaska. A large chunk of concrete was thrown at it, which broke off the rear view mirror and gouged the passenger side window. We didn't hear it, but my neighbor said that he heard a loud crash, and a car rev up and speed off southbound on 48th Ave. I wonder if anyone out there had a similar experience last night?
Comment by W Sea Neigbor — 7:24 pm September 3, 2011 #
@Dotti-Do you know what school he attends?
@Highland Park res.-I hope to God the police made this a priority call.Makes you wonder what goes on behind closed doors,scary.
@Waite res.-I go past your place everyday many times,I'll keep my eyes peeled.
Comment by Alki Resident — 7:29 pm September 3, 2011 #
@ Alki resident, He attends West Seattle High School and was a Senior last year. But, he has been held back many times, my son has told me, and he is 21 years of age. So I am not sure if he graduated last year or not and he was not in 2011 West Seattle High School Yearbook.
Comment by D.D — 7:53 pm September 3, 2011 #
Thanks D.D,wasn't what I was hoping.My son goes there as well.Hopefully he's finally graduated.He's not going to be so confrontational once he messes with the wrong party.
Comment by Alki Resident — 8:34 pm September 3, 2011 #
Regarding the highland park incident. At some point, we as a community have a responsibility to get involved. Even if it is turning on all of your outside lights and making your presence known by standing on your porch or opening the door and asking the woman if she needed help.
Obviously, in this situation, assessing the situation to ensure that you are not in any danger is the first step and then calling 911 is an important second step. But I'm interested in other folks perceptions as to when it becomes your responsibility to save this woman….
Comment by Chris — 9:11 pm September 3, 2011 #
Very true Alki resident, and I have to say my teenage boys aren't to happy about this right now, along with my husband!! I hope for everyone's sake that he has graduated or given up on school and that the police find him and get him off the streets before he actually is able to hurt someone.
Comment by D.D — 9:27 pm September 3, 2011 #
@Dotti and all responders: He's a Delridge neighborhood kid, bad homelife, and is probably just looking for attention. He walks by my house everyday, on Delridge and had befriended my husband, awhile back. (Husband seems to attract the weirdos, he can't help it, its just how nice he is.) Husband got above info out of him, and that he usually is on mental meds-when he is he's nice. When he isn't he goes crazy just by saying Hi to him. He yells stuff at us from across the street sometimes, other times he says hi, or he sprints by (the boy can RUN!-FAST–should've been recruited by track and field coach in high school, and then maybe we wouldn't be having this convo/problem!…?)! He used to come to the door looking for my hubby, but hubby doesn't let him come up anywhere close to door or walkway. The kid's actually helped me, by looking out for the people who I thought were "casing" my house awhile back. I really think he's just looking for attention, but just ignore him if you see him again. I don't thik he's dangerous.
Comment by ddb — 9:29 pm September 3, 2011 #
Chris – just because I'm not sure if the person who e-mailed us will drop by to explain – she also included in her note a long explanation of exactly what she went through with repeated 911 calls. It wasn't a case of "quick 911 call and then back to whatever she was doing." She attempted to provide additional information, etc., AND she was told by the 911 operator, she says, that they already had a report about something in the area, so she was under the impression that help was on the way, and even before she got off the phone with 911, they had moved out of earshot (it sounds like it was a lengthy call, though, because she had to deal with some discussion of whether she had reached the right jurisdiction – apparently SPD vs. KCSO – and also was asked to "clarify the directional details"). She wrote that she did see a police car go by but when she went out to the street to look, she didn't see any flashing lights or anything indicating a stop or interception – TR
interesting…. I'd hate to have something bad happen while 911 operators are figuring out jurisdiction!
Comment by Chris — 9:57 pm September 3, 2011 #
@ Dotti – I believe I know of the individual you encountered. I have seen him walking along Delridge Way frequently over the last few months. Mostly between Genesee and Brandon. Something definitely seems amiss with him. Will continue to pay close attention and try and strike up a conversation with him the next time we cross paths. Perhaps Southwest Youth and Family Services can be brought into to get him headed in a better direction……?
Comment by Been There — 10:07 pm September 3, 2011 #
The redheaded sprinter ran past me on Delridge a couple weeks ago. It was a very warm day and he had on a jacket and the backpack. Man, he is fast. Really fast. I'm 6'2″ 230 lbs and surely stepped out of his way. It's too bad he verbally assualted you that way, I'm glad everything turned out ok this time. Soon we will have 75 more people with serious mental/addictive illnesses or other disabling conditions moving to the neighborhood so the red runner might seem like a non-issue. They have to live somewhere, so why not with us. If we were rich we could move to Laurelhurst.
Comment by jw — 10:40 pm September 3, 2011 #
@ddb, well he definitely got my attention! As far as not being dangerous, when you are 5'4″ and 48 years old and a person comes at you tearing off his coat and backpack and says he is going to kick your a… with absolutely no provocation (I didn't even say hi to him)I would say there is a problem. I even explained to the police and my husband and neighbor, I wasn't even singing to my Ipod like I usually do when I am walking. I was just stopped at the trail head letting him run by, looked up the street to see if any cars were coming and went to cross Juneau, and that is when he stopped tore off his headphones and turned around and started yelling.Then he started towards me and ripped off his coat and backpack, threw them in the neighbors yard on the corner and kept coming. That is when my neighbor came out and the young black woman pulled over to make sure I was alright.I am sorry to disagree with you but that is a little more than trying to get attention. What if my young son had been down there on his scooter, and the boy had done the same thing?? If he does have a bad home life or has mental issues I am very sorry and hope he can get the help he needs before he ends up hurting someone or is hurt himself.
Comment by D.D — 11:04 pm September 3, 2011 #
@ Been there, that is a very good idea and I will try to give them a call or contact the officer that came by to take the report and see what he thinks. Thank you for the suggestion.
Comment by D.D — 11:11 pm September 3, 2011 #
I think i saw him too on delridge wednesday around 5:30pm, i was biking home, and he started screaming at me.
Comment by Patrick — 11:17 pm September 3, 2011 #
@JW, That might explain how he disappeared so quickly. I turned away for a second to answer my neighbor and the young lady in the car and turned back and he was gone. And yes I heard about the mental facility going in up the street. I understand that they need a place to be but it does seem that they always put those types of things in the neighborhoods that are less affluent. I hope that we do not see more of this type of behavior do to this but you are right it could get a lot worse than it is now. Thank you for your comment. Take care
Comment by D.D — 11:18 pm September 3, 2011 #
@ Dotti To all of you posters that say just ignore this person He not only verbally assaulted her , He was on his way to physically assaulting her If not for the neighbor and passerby it could have been a different story all together. I live in the area myself. I am disabled to a degree. If this were to have happened to me, I would have taken it as a threat to my life. Mental disabilities or not I would have most likely used deadly force. This person does need help. On a side note this happened to my wife. I will not stand by, and let my family be intimidated by such actions or Threats of bodily harm for no god dam reason. This person needs to be picked up and held to see if he can be helped. Before he or someone else is seriously harmed in a irreversible manor.
Comment by Norman — 11:20 pm September 3, 2011 #
@ Patrick, that is not ok! I am so sorry you had that happen to you as well. This person needs help and needs to be off the street until he is gets it!!
Comment by D.D — 12:06 am September 4, 2011 #
I hear and see the red headed runner everyday. I used to jump up and run to the window whenever I heard his screaming and yelling but it's so common I don't anymore. I used to think he was harmless but now I'm not sure.
Comment by what? — 12:17 am September 4, 2011 #
Being mental will not result in any sort of detention, either in jail or at harborview. If he is mentally Ill AND commits a crime as a result then maybe…but the problem is the crime has to occur before he can be held for any meaningful length of time. You may see him along delridge and call 911 and the cops may get there in time to find him but that does not equal him being taken off the streets for more than a few hours. Harborview will bounce him before the ink is dry on the police report. My advice? Take reasonable measures to protect yourself. Buy and carry the highest grade pepper spray you can find. You have the right to defend yourself and your family. Don't let this or any person victimize you, irrespective of their mental issues.

Thanks Kermit for the information. I am not very good at playing the victim. I have had many suggestions regarding the pepper spray which I will be purchasing and carrying with me from now on:)Take care
Comment by D.D — 7:53 am September 4, 2011 #
Pepper spray is a great idea,but he who hasn't read this blog will be unaware of the red head sprinter and not be preparred for his encounters.I especially worry about the younger kids in that area.It makes me angry that someone like this will probably have to hurt someone in order to get help and then after that may never serve time for it.I would feel like a prisoner in my own home if this kid was running in my neighborhood and always on guard when outside.This is not fair to all of his neighbors who know about him.And like I said earlier,he might mess with the wrong person someday and it's not going to be pretty.

He does bother the younger kids, especially at the library on Delridge. He used to bother my son but my son just ignored him and it seemed to work. What's sad is there is a family who's kids seem to think it's okay to instigate problems with this young man – they will shout at him and curse at him. Seems to me this could make him even more unstable and I thought about bringing this up to them but he is actually less scary than they are – Delridge gangbangers if you know what I mean.

This is very scary to read. I often take my 3 year old son to the Delridge library and then either walk to the park/community center or over to "bubbles tea" for a treat. At what point is it appropriate to get young man some help? Hopefully before he hurts himself, his family or a innocent person simply walking by. Just wondering Dotti, did you call the police?
Comment by Melissa — 4:34 pm September 4, 2011 #
Melissa….get this "young man some help" is fine as an intent, but not realistic for an action plan. The police will respond after the fact, but meanwhile the damage is done. Either this guy has hurt you or a child or something. Have you ever heard that phrase "when seconds count, the police are only minutes away"? Not to fault the cops but they can't possibly be everywhere to prevent things from happening. Don't outsource your personal safety and peace of mind. And alki resident, using deadly force in this situation is not reasonable and the result would be him dead, you in prison for manslaughter. It is not a defense in a situation like this to say "oh I was scared so I killed him" Your force used has to be commensurate with what you are facing. Pepper spray causes no lasting injuries and is almost by definition a defensive weapon so your right to defend yourself/family would fall well within the use of pepper spray. Here's another tip: buy pro grade pepper spray (krosen's, blumenthal's) that is oil-based and has a high SHU rating. The red runner will think twice before he approaches another stranger in a menacing fashion after he gets a noseful of that stuff….

@Kermit_WHEN was deadly force ever brought up in this blog?
Comment by Alki Resident — 10:27 pm September 4, 2011 #
sorry…too much to type on my phone…
Kg, tell me what you think:
Use of force — When lawful.
(3) Whenever used by a party about to be injured, or by another lawfully aiding him or her, in preventing or attempting to prevent an offense against his or her person, or a malicious trespass, or other malicious interference with real or personal property lawfully in his or her possession, in case the force is not more than is necessary;
…this begs the next question. What is the legal definition of 'necessary'? Here that is too, from RCW 9A.16.010:
"Necessary" means that no reasonably effective alternative to the use of force appeared to exist and that the amount of force used was reasonable to effect the lawful purpose intended.
In other words, you can't act unreasonably in your application of force. It has to be measured and balanced against what situation you're in.
Comment by kermit_2 — 10:32 pm September 4, 2011 #
@ Melissa, yes I called the police and Officer Lucas was here very quickly. He took a report and told me to contact him if I saw him out in the neighborhood. He was very kind and understanding which I greatly appreciated and took this very seriously. I would suggest if anyone has a problem with this person to call the police and file a report.I know it can be a pain, but I believe the more people who file a complaint the better chances we have to get this person off the streets.
And, Melissa I am very sorry to here that your son has had problems with him as well. Please be safe out there.
AND UPDATE TO ALL: I was gone for a day trip to my sisters property and while I was away I received a message on my cell phone from my neighbor saying this boy had started screaming at another neighbor on our block. I haven't gotten any other details in regards to this situation as I have only been home for about an hour and don't want to disturb anyone this late. Obviously whatever is going on with this person seems to be escalating, so please be careful. I really don't want to read on WSB that someone has been hurt. Take care and be safe, Oh and if anyone would like the name of this person or the case number let me know and I will e-mail it to you, I am not sure if it would be an appropriate thing to post on WSB, D.D.
Comment by D.D — 11:40 pm September 4, 2011 #
'He's not going to be so confrontational once he messes with the wrong party'
'And like I said earlier,he might mess with the wrong person someday and it's not going to be pretty.'
…sorry if that's not what you meant, maybe I confused your post with Norman's when he said:
"I would have taken it as a threat to my life. Mental disabilities or not I would have most likely used deadly force. This person does need help. On a side note this happened to my wife. I will not stand by, and let my family be intimidated by such actions or Threats of bodily harm for no god dam reason."

Kermit I wish you were with me the day a thug in High Point threw a tennis ball as hard as he could at me hitting my forearm and almost bouncing off my child in her stroller – for no god dam reason!
Comment by wssort — 1:53 am September 5, 2011 #
My comments were meant as he's going to get beat up and/or somebody will stand up for themselves and fight him.And maybe if they do then he'll back off from doing what he does,BUT since he has mental issues,fat chance he'll learn from it.
Comment by Alki Resident — 7:57 am September 5, 2011 #
Thanks kermit, I will tell you what I think. That RCW is very open to interpretation while the statement I quoted from you was not.
Still waiting on the case law that supports your statement of only using equal force to defend ones self.
Comment by kg — 10:36 am September 5, 2011 #
I have seen the red headed kid (often wearing a backpack) regularly hanging out by the Delridge Library, walking/running the North Delridge alleys, and up and down Delridge between Genessee and Findlay for over a year, maybe two.
He does seem mentally challenged but I have never felt scared in his presence. You never know how a mental illness is developing though, and it seems wise to practice caution around this person. He may be harmless but no one should feel intimidated in their own neighborhood. Always call police. They can then track behavior and log incidents. This also helps allot resources in the future.
If anyone knows where the redheaded kid lives, you can contact our CPT (Community Policing Team) officer Jonathan Kiehn and ask him to do a "knock and talk" in which the officer will stop by the house and talk with this kid and his parents.
Comment by Always Call Police — 10:47 am September 5, 2011 #
This red-headed young man lives on my street with some of his family. He definitely has mental illness issues and, it appears, his support system at home is inadequate. He has good days where I have seen him talking to neighbors or doing yard work (last week). Bad days, he yells at people from a distance and runs a lot. I have mostly been concerned about his safety but am always wary of him in my presence, as well. I have an indirect connection with his family and am going to try to find out some more information. If things are escalating with him, it might help to know if he has a caseworker or who the best person is to contact with concerns.
Whether you support it or not, if we get the DESC building in the neighborhood, we benefit from learning more about mental illness and what to do in situations like this to best avoid tragic consequences for either party. Seems like something DESC could provide.

Dotti – Would you had said "a very nice white woman pulled over and ask me if I was ok". Why mention her color, that seems weird to me. Just my opinion.
Comment by monroe1200 — 11:17 am September 5, 2011 #
@del I do hope you will get in touch with Officer Kiehn. He's a good guy and would not approach the kid's house to intimidate, but to say hello, see how things are going, touch base. In the end it could be this red headed kid who is in danger and putting Officer Kiehn in touch with his family might be a saving grace for him–not just for neighbors. Since you are the only one who has mentioned that you know where he lives, I hope you will do this. Thanks.
Comment by Always Call Police — 11:41 am September 5, 2011 #
Almost forgot…
I had a different individual approach my car last week as I pulled up to my house on 25th Ave SW near Brandon. He screamed at me in front of my car and then approached the driver side door and yelled some more.
I had never seen him before. I did not get out of my car until he was gone. I called the police with a description (coincidentally he had light red hair but he was probably 45 years old wearing a gray striped shirt). Never seen him before but he seemed very "off" and also seemed to enjoy the look of shock on my face as he laughed loudly after yelling at me.
Again, if in doubt, ALWAYS CALL POLICE, even if no crime has occurred. They often know the characters involved and it can help them track patterns of behavior, location, find someone if a crime was recently committed, etc. We are the eyes and ears of the community but if we don't speak up and incidents go unreported, we are only hurting ourselves. Glad to have so many neighbors keeping their eyes open.
Comment by Always Call Police — 11:43 am September 5, 2011 #
Ok kg, if you don't recognize a very black and white RCW your not going to be persuaded by 'case law'. So go out and shoot some mental kid Because he yelled some words at you and have fun justiying it after the fact. The law is clear on the matter and I'm sorry you fail to recognize that fact. It even goes so far as to define 'necessary' in case there is any ambiguity.
Comment by Kermit — 12:22 pm September 5, 2011 #
@ Monroe, yes I would have said "nice white woman," I like to give credit where credit is due! It is like explaining the description of the person who threatened me. And I wanted her to know who she was if she were to read this. She went out of her way to pull over and make sure I was okay.I was so in shock at the situation that I didn't even have time to thank her or to get her name. It was a very kind thing for her to do especially in this day and age when people stand by and do nothing but watch or just go on there way without looking back. Society always seem to jump at explaining the description of the bad perpetrators but never describe the ones who help!! Hope that clarifies things a little better for you. Take care
Comment by D.D — 12:36 pm September 5, 2011 #
@ AlwaysCallPolice – how do I call this officer?
Comment by del neighbor — 1:58 pm September 5, 2011 #
CPT numbers are here: http://www.seattle.gov/police/precincts/southwest/CPT.htm
I have seen the kid around the neighborhood, walking along Delridge Way for the past 5 years. I've only crossed paths with him twice, but seeing him around, I've noted his irradic behavior: often running, shouting at people, and once cussing loudly at no one in particular.
He wears glasses, and I'd say is about 6ft. tall, skinny, very white, red but almost blond hair.
Anyone who knows of his home, please, call the officer mentioned above, he needs help.

November 29, 2015
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Alabama state employees suffering from obesity and three other health problems will eventually have to pay extra for their health insurance if they don't try to control their problems.
The State Employees' Insurance Board has approved a plan that will charge state workers an extra $25 per month, starting January 2010, if they don't have a free health screening. If the screening turns up no problems, they don't have to pay the $25 in the future.
If the screening turns up serious problems with blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose or obesity, then employees will have one year to see a doctor, enroll in a wellness program or take other steps to improve their health. If they do, they won't have to pay the $25 monthly. But if they don't, they will have to pay the $25 per month starting in January 2011.

Maurice Ways. / Tim Sullivan / Special for the Free Press
Michigans focus on in-state recruiting since the beginning of the Brady Hoke era has led to 23 state natives signing with the Wolverines in the past three classes, but none of U-Ms four current commitments in the 2014 class have hailed from Michigan yet. One player could be nearing a U-M offer, however.
Beverly Hills Detroit Country Day wide receiver Maurice Ways totaled 1,000 yards as a junior, and coaching staffs across the Mid-American Conference plus those from Iowa and Kansas have recognized his efforts with scholarship offers. Ways has visited Ann Arbor each of the past two weekends, and the Wolverines could be next to enter his list.
They said Im very high on their radar, Ways explained after his most recent trip to U-M. Ive been their most talked-about recruit the past two weeks. Theyre saying just to be patient. Theyre going to watch my film again as a staff Monday, and make a decision from there.
Though he already has a handful of offers, the Michigan coaches let Ways know that a second wave could be coming soon, during the spring evaluation period. Starting April 15, college coaching staffs will be able to visit prospects in-school to evaluate athletic and academic talents.
They told me there are three phases of recruitment, Ways explained. The first phase is when you're really hot and you're getting a lot of offers in the fall and Winter. In the second phase, it kind of cools down. Then they said the third phase is like the evaluation period between April and May. They said that's when you start getting the second tier of offers.
They said, I think you're a guy that's going to be in that second tier, so I'm very hopeful that an offer is coming. I'm just waiting this out, being patient. They do things the Michigan way, to make sure that the guys theyre offering are the top guys that they want. They said just to be patient and my time is coming soon.
Country Day, which was the Division-4 runner up this fall, also boasts two more Division I prospects in the junior class. Quarterback Tyler Wiegers and running back Richard Wilson also have multiple scholarship offers, but it is Ways that has caught the eye of U-M.
The Wolverines are expected to sign three wide receivers in the 2014 recruiting class, and have also offered Grand Rapids Christian wideout Drake Harris in-state.

Anaheim, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Antti Niemi made 33 saves to back a well- balanced offensive effort as the San Jose Sharks halted the Anaheim Ducks' winning streak at seven games with a 4-1 victory.
Brent Burns, Joe Pavelski, Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Tommy Wingels all scored to help the Sharks end a four-game skid.
"It was a big win for us. We needed a win any way we could get it," San Jose head coach Todd McLellan said.
Matt Belesky accounted for Anaheim's lone goal and Frederik Andersen, who won his first six starts of the season, gave up four goals on 37 shots in the setback.
"In the first and second periods, they played like the Sharks can play. They were extremely good, and we weren't ready," Anaheim head coach Bruce Boudreau said.
Patrick Marleau won an offensive zone faceoff back to Burns, who snapped a shot through a maze of players to start the scoring 8:25 into the contest.
Pavelski was parked in front of Andersen and tipped Joe Thornton's right- circle shot past the hot netminder on the power play with 21 seconds left in the opening stanza.
The Sharks added another goal in the second period. Skating 4-on-4, Vlasic jumped up on the play, pounced on a loose puck in the slot and slid a backhander through the legs of Andersen.
James Sheppard raced into the offensive zone and swung into the slot from the right circle, but his shot past Andersen was a second too late as the second period horn sounded.
After Tim Jackman was assessed a double-minor roughing penalty, Wingels slapped a shot and tracked down his rebound in the slot before backhanding the puck past a sliding Andersen for a 4-0 lead with 8:20 remaining.
The game took a nasty tone late in the third. Sharks forward John Scott and Jackman threw punches in the middle of the ice, while a scrum involving the remaining players, including Andersen, erupted along the boards.
Belesky ended Niemi's shutout bid by roofing a short-handed backhander with 5:07 to play.
The two teams combined for 165 penalty minutes ... Burns has recorded 10
points in 10 games this season ... Ducks forward Ryan Kesler tallied his 400th
NHL point with an assist ... San Jose went 2-for-5 on the power play, while
Anaheim was unsuccessful in its six chances.

A theft suspect took a wild ride down two busy Colerain Township roads today .
Police are looking for a Columbus man they say fled Northgate Mall clinging to the hood of a car as it sped from the parking lot.
Police received a call for a theft at the Sears at Northgate at about 12:50 p.m. Colerain Township Police Officer Joe Carter said an officer assigned to patrol at Northgate Mall saw a man fleeing on foot toward the parking lot and began a pursuit.
Police said the suspect dropped merchandise, later determined to be stolen and jumped onto the hood of a waiting Impala operated by Telisha L. Marshall.
Officers said Marshall fled south on Colerain, then east on Compton Road with the man clinging to the hood. In the area of Compton Road and Burgess Drive, the suspect jumped from the hood and fled on foot into the woods toward Gila Drive. Marshall was stopped at Pippin and Compton Road and she was taken into custody after a brief struggle with officers, Carter said.
He said Marshall, 26, of Cincinnati, was charged with for reckless operation on private property, felony complicity to theft, resisting arrest, obstructing official business, and possession of drugs.
All items from the theft offense were recovered totaling $1,224.94 in clothing items.
Officers from Hamilton County Sheriff's Department, Mount Healthy, North College Hill, Springfield Township, and Lincoln Heights assisted in the search for the suspect. A police canine track was unsuccessful and he remains at large.
Police identified the suspect as Earnest Johnson, 41, of Columbus. Carter said warrants are being filed for felony theft and obstructing official business.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Johnson is asked to contact Colerain Police 513-321-COPS (321-2677) or CrimeStoppers at 513-352-3040.

A crazy race day three at the 420 and 470 Junior Europeans as massive windshifts swept across the course, with races abandoned and courses reset.
Hippolyte Machetti/Sidoine Dantes
The challenging breeze didn't seem to upset the series leaders though, who despite some up and down results still hold onto their yellow leaders bibs going into Saturday's race day four.
Jeanine Speelman/Marchien Speelman
Racing first were the 470 Men and Women on the furthest Echo course area, where they ended up being beset with wind shifts. A postponement as the Race Committee waited for the wind to fill in and stabilize saw race five get underway, only to be abandoned as a massive wind shift hit the course. The shifting breeze continued to plague the fleet for the rest of the day.
The 420 yellow and blue fleets were on the adjacent Delta course, where the yellow fleet were on the track first for an 1130 hours scheduled start time. After three general recalls, the black flag brought the fleet into line, with a handful of teams taking penalty scores for starting too early. The 104 boat 420 fleet have now concluded their qualification series, and are seeded into gold and silver fleets for the six-race final series, with the top 54 placed boats advancing to gold.
Benedetta Di Salle/Alessandra Dubbini
470 Men
Just race five completed for the 470 Men today, with the win going to Malte Winkel/Matti Cipra, the 470 Junior Worlds bronze medallists. The pair were in battle with Australia's Thomas Klemens/William Llewlyn and series leaders Jordi Xammar/Joan Herp, who finished second and third respectively.
An important and confident win for Winkel/Cipra at this halfway stage of the Championship sees the Germans and series leader from Spain as the only teams counting all top ten results, leaving them room on their scoreline for a discard result.
Today's race winners Klemens/Llewlyn are seeing their peak performances sandwiched between double-digit scorelines, in a similar showing to their form at the 470 Junior Worlds which saw them deliver a mix of front of fleet and mid-fleet results, to finish 21st in the forty-six boat fleet. They thrived in the senior fleet racing at the 470 Europeans in Athens last month, easily qualifying through to gold fleet and finishing 37th in the seventy-three boat fleet.
Kamil Cesarski/Beniamin Waszkiewicz
The race discard came into play on race five, but has not really impacted the leaderboard. Biggest move up the fleet goes to Poland's Kamil Cesarski/Beniamin Waskiewicz, who started the day in eighth and ended it in fourth overall, helped by their sixth place finish.
470 Men - Results after five Races:

470 Women
A testing day for the 470 Women fleet as three starts and three race abandonments stretched the nerves of even the most composed sailors as well as the Race Committee. Ultimately, all racing was abandoned for the day.
In the first attempt to start race five, the race was abandoned on the first reach, as the back of the fleet came through to the front of the fleet. Attempt two was abandoned after a fifty degree shift just before the first windward mark. The breeze then picked up, going from around five knots to around 15 knots, and the fleet did an upwind leg, downwind leg and then were heading back up to the windward mark when the race got abandoned for the third time - a tough day for all.
Jess Lavery/Megan Brickwood
'It was a hard day to set a course, as the breeze was shifting around a lot,' accepted Jess Lavery of Great Britain. 'It was all good fun, and we stayed focused race on race.'
'In between the races we were always thinking about the next race,' commented crew Megan Brickwood. 'We were sailing well all day, even though the racing was abandoned and the wind was crazy.'
Lavery/Brickwood are the top placed finishers from the 470 Junior Worlds held in July competing here in Poland.
Alongside the seasoned 470 campaigners are some newcomers to the fleet, including Canada's Alli Surrette/Ali Ten Hove, who stepped to the 470 after campaigning in a 420 during 2013, and are competing at their first 470 Championship.
Aikaterini Tavoulari/Fotini Koutsoumpou
'We are so enjoying sailing the 470. We only started in December last year, so this is our first big Championship and we are so excited to be here, it is a great experience,' said Surrette. 'The competition here in Europe is incredible, and it is really cool to race against people our own age who are sailing the same boat.'
Commenting on what they have learned from their European experience so far, Surrette explained, 'I would say that the experience of racing against incredibly high level sailors and seeing things from a different perspective and different techniques that other people are using is great to see.'
Jemima Lawson/Lily Summers
Next stop for the Canadians is the Santander 2014 ISAF Worlds in September. 'It will be tough there,' acknowledged Surrette, and the ISAF Worlds will very much be a training ground for the team.
With the 2016 Olympic Games beckoning for Surrette/Ten Hove, they are benefiting every step of the way. The Olympic Qualification System for the Rio 2016 Olympics guarantees every continent a nation slot, over and above any slots already awarded to nations from the 2014 ISAF Worlds and 2015 Class Worlds, so if they qualify at their Continental Qualification event in 2015/2016, Rio is on the cards.

420 Open
A long day on the water for the 420 fleet as the conditions which plagued the 470 course were felt on the 420 race track. General recalls forced the Race Committee to start under black flag, with numerous boats penalised across all races.
Hippolyte Machetti/Sidoine Dantes
A day of extreme for series leaders Hippolyte Machetti/Sidoine Dantes (FRA) who bounced back from a disatrous 25th in the day's opening race, following up with a race win to carry a nine point advantage into the final series. Ewa Romaniuk/Katarzyna Goralska (POL) hold firm in second overall.
So as the leaderboard shapes up at the halfway stage and the discard kicks in after race five, all change in the top 10 as five teams disappear and five move on up. With six races completed, today marked the end of the qualification series, with teams now seeded to gold or silver fleet, with 54 boats apiece.
Robert Dickson/Sean Waddilove
Amongst the gainers and shooting up into the top 10 go Max Clapp/Joseph Burns (GBR) from their one, three in today's two races and arrive into third overall heading into the final series. Joining their team mates in the top ten are Sarah Norbury/Mari Davies (GBR), who become the second placed women's team.
Six more races for the 420 fleet to complete the final series and crown this year's Champions.

UPDATED: Long-awaited Ponzi scheme trial under way
Attorneys began this morning delivering their opening statements in the long-awaited trial of a Redding man accused of orchestrating an alleged multimillion-dollar Ponzi scheme.
James Stanley Koenig, 60, was arrested in 2009 with two others following a 17-month state investigation that focused on an alleged real estate and investment Ponzi scheme that reportedly bilked scores of investors, many of them elderly, out of an estimated $250 million.
But Koenig is now standing trial alone.
His former business partner and ex-co-defendant, Gary Thomas Armitage, 62, of Santa Rosa, pleaded no-contest last month to three felonies, including conspiracy to commit a crime and fraud, in exchange for a 10-year prison sentence.
Another former co-defendant, Jeffrey A. Guidi, of Santa Rosa, took a plea bargain in 2010, pleading no contest to a California corporations code misdemeanor and agreeing to cooperate with state prosecutors.
Koenig's trial is expected to last until April or May.
Prosecutors with the state Attorney General's Office have claimed Koenig and Armitage hid crucial information from their clients, as well as prospective ones, including that they failed to disclose Koenig was convicted of felony mail fraud in the 1980s.

In January 2012, Sinclair Community College began an initiative to "green" the curriculum, i.e. integrate environmental and ecoliteracy through interdisciplinary, real-world projects across disciplines. Teaching "green" can take many different forms. Some instructors assign new readings that address discipline-specific environmental issues, others invite guest speakers into their courses, some add a unit or module that fosters environmental literacy, some show a film, and others completely revise their course.
To kick off the initiative, interested faculty attended a three-day retreat at the Glen Helen Ecological Institute in Yellow Springs, Ohio, to learn for themselves what a "green" curriculum might involve. Working together on hands on projects, faculty began to develop and discuss ways to increase student awareness of our human impact on the natural world.
Click on the links in the sidebar to learn about different ways faculty are approaching the task of improving environmental literacy on campus and across the community. For more information about the "Greening the Curriculum" initiative at Sinclair or information about upcoming workshops on the topic contact Adrienne Cassel (firstname.lastname@example.com or 937-512-2896).

By Stephen Aufderheide, MD
Sacred Heart Medical Center has launched a pilot program to improve the safety of total joint surgery. For the past several months, patients scheduled for joint replacement surgery at the hospital have been screened for obstructive sleep apnea using a simple, eight-question survey.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a disorder that can cause abnormal pauses in breathing while sleeping. In severe cases, these pauses can happen hundreds of times a night. A surprising number of people with sleep apnea remain undiagnosed, a fact that can lead to complications during and after surgery.
Sleep apnea is most prevalent in obese, middle-aged men, but can also occur in women and average-weight people. An estimated 82 percent of men and 92 percent of women with moderate to severe sleep apnea remain undiagnosed. Untreated sleep apnea can contribute to high blood pressure, stroke, heart problems, diabetes, depression, and even car accidents.
It can also cause complications during and after surgery, especially when narcotic medications are used to treat the pain of surgery.
Sacred Heart is using a screening survey, called the STOP-BANG questionnaire, which has been validated in several studies. For example, in a recent study, patients with high-risk scores experienced higher rates of post-operative complications -- 19.6 percent compared to 1.3 percent for patients with low-risk scores.
The STOP-BANG questionnaire poses eight yes or no questions about risk factors for sleep apnea, including age, weight, snoring, breathing pauses, fatigue, blood pressure, neck circumference and gender. Patients who answer yes to three or more questions are at higher risk for sleep apnea and may be referred to a sleep physician for consultation and a sleep study.
Joint replacement patients with untreated sleep apnea have higher incidence of low oxygen levels after surgery when they are treated with narcotics, but the long-term effects are unknown and are still being studied.
Between May and November 2011, 310 patients were referred to a sleep physician, according to Connie Dunks, supervisor of the Sleep Disorders Center at Sacred Heart. In rare cases, surgery had to be delayed to allow for consultation and diagnosis.
Since sleep apnea requires long-term treatment with long-term outcomes, screening would ideally be performed as a routine part of primary care, similar to diabetes and blood pressure testing. Until outpatient diagnosis and treatment of sleep apnea becomes more commonplace, Sacred Heart will continue to screen joint replacement patients before surgery. In the future, Sacred Heart may make sleep apnea screening mandatory for all previously untested elective surgery patients.
Currently, all patients scheduled for elective surgery at Sacred Heart are given an appointment at the hospital's pre-op anesthesia clinic. About 98 percent of patients attend those appointments, which are seen as opportunities to improve the overall medical care of the patient, in addition to planning for surgery. To that end, staff and anesthesiologists review vaccinations and screen for hypertension, diabetes, pulmonary problems, cardiac disease -- and now, sleep apnea.
Anesthesiologist Stephen Aufderheide, MD, is Medical Director of the Anesthesia Department at Sacred Heart Medical Center.

Today, the certified Huntington tutoring staff utilizes testing and rubrics for assessing each child's skills, academic needs and potential for growth. The teachers even note the student's behavior in different testing and academic situations to craft a methodology sensitive to each child's learning style.

Deputies say a Florida man was robbed at gunpoint just before 4 a.m. Friday while he refueled his vehicle at the Murphy Gas on Harrison Road in west Bibb County.
As he stood at the gas pumps, John Lee told deputies he was approached by two young black men with bandannas over their faces. One of them brandished a gun, demanding his money.
The robbers left in Lee's vehicle, which investigators later found -- the engine still running -- less than a mile away at Chambers Cove Apartment Complex.
In a news release, the robbers were described as one wearing a black, hooded jacket and the other wearing a blue jean jacket.
The 54-year-old resident of Sun City Center, Florida, was not injured in the robbery.
Anyone with relevant information is urged to call Crimestoppers at 877-68-CRIME or the Bibb County Sheriff's Office at 478-746-9441.

@Nintenjoe64 My thoughts exactly. I'm not even convinced with Namco working on SSB yet either...
@ToxorAxiom We still have Watch Dogs, which looks a lot more interesting! ;D
@Codyshelby Blasphemy! Infinite/10! XD
@Red_Kinetic It's the magic bar... -_-
@Rawk_Hawk And Square Enix! They need to bring back Final Fantasy and get Kingdom Hearts from Sony too. I know that would benefit Nintendo more than EA.
@WingedFish Why not at hidden K. Rool final battle?
"People need to be patient with Wii U"
Correction: "People need to be patient for more games"
Release the games already!
@MANIAC911 That's not the point...
@AlexSora89 So true! I just can't imagine Mario Kart in HD, or SSB, or Metroid, or Zelda!! Too much awesomeness!!
@darkgamer001 Agreed!
I agree that Nintendo needs their fighting spirit back. We need action! Games, announcements, passion, counterattacks to Sony and Microsoft, lots of exclusives, breathtaking news and games!! Nintendo had everything before! But now it's all disappointment!
I find funny that Nintendo has changed like its logo has: First it was red, crimson red! It was vivid, like the company itself! Red, the color of blood, people!
But then they changed it to grey... And the company lost all the vitality, just like their logo. Grey, boring, and underwhelming.
And I must face that the Wii U today is disappointing. But it's not Wii U's fault! It's Nintendo's! They should fight for exclusives and release more AAA games!
Yeah, and I know that it needs time. But c'mon, I just touched my Wii U a week ago just to download Punch-Out. When I see my 3DS, I say, "hey, let's play some Luigi's Mansion/Kid Icarus/etc", but when I see my Wii U, I don't see any reason to play with it.
C'mon Nintendo! Wake up already!
Awesome! Pikmin in 3D! ;D
Wii U performance is underwhelming.
PS4 is impressive.
Nope, PS4 is the same ol'crap.
@undead_terror Woah! 3D minecraft! that'd be really cool.
@SunnyShores Doesn't have an official release date yet. I really think I'll come by summer.
@Fudgewhizzle Exactly, people DON'T CARE about PETA's nonsense! <3
Please decide already!
Nintendo: Yeah, or 3DS is a success, not like your vita. U MAD, Sony?
Sony: (Can't stand Nintendo's success) Let's sue them!
@Nintenjoe64 "Same experience = All ported from 360"
Let's just hope not. :
@Majin-Naruto Same experience. :/
@Tsuchiya Wow, you sure like to discuss, I see. While I do agree the New series are just insanely repetitive and unoriginal, I must disagree with you: Sunshine and Galaxy were innovative. They both introduced new and fresh concepts and gameplay.
But let's not forget that this is Luigi's year, I wouldn't be surprised if there were more Luigi games than Mario games. The red plumber is not alone: Luigi's Mansion 2, Game & Wario, Yarn Yoshi... These games will refresh things until a new Mario game for sure!
How 'bout a Wario Year too? There hasn't been a true Wario game since Shake It!, and that was from 2008. Of course I love the Year of Luigi, and Game & Wario also looks very nice, but I'd love to see another Wario Land and more Wario games too! D:
How about a local or online multiplayer BATTLE too huh? That would be utterly awesome.
@KnightRider666 Indeed. I played both and they seem incomplete in the ending. I mean, if Farore is just as important as Nayru and Din, how can she be a meaningless little girl inside the Maku Tree? Doesn't make sense.
@PinkSpider I'd rather Sunshine 2.
All this "generations" thing is getting really boring. Always comparing consoles and discussing nonsense about where does a console go in all that generations crap. Just enjoy the consoles and the games, people, and stop talking bull!
@MarioKenny1992 OoT is nothin' compared to this, right? xD
This in going to be epic. I just loved the feeling of freedom you had sailing in the original, and now in HD... Nintendo, take my moneyyyyy!!!
The Raid Mode of Luigi's Mansion, I hope!
THIS IS WHY NINTENDO IS BOSS!! Working on 2 Zeldas for Wii U and hopefully a MM remake for 3DS! Hell yeah!!
@Ryno_Chozo I'd rather see another cool exclusive spin-off like Revelations for Wii U. I tried RE6 and really, it's not that good...
And howcome you don't have a 3ds yet? You should buy one!
@florecita Exactly! And I'm at level 50 in Raid Mode already, no way I'm going to start everything all over again. >.>
@DarkCoolEdge Too early. I expect some more videos from Pikmin 3, Game and Wario and from more yet to be released announced launch-window games. Maybe they release an update to make the load screens go faster too!

Workers wait for the flow of water from a broken water main break to subside so they can repair the 30 inch diameter line in Yonkers Aug. 27, 2012. The break forced the closure of the Saw Mill Parkway's southbound lanes and a large portion of Yonkers was without water. ( Joe Larese/The Journal News )
- Filed Under
A controlled water-main shutdown, beginning at 8 p.m. Sept. 20 and lasting as long as 24 hours could disrupt service to tens of thousands of people in the city's most densely populated southwestern section.
The Yonkers mayor's office says crews have to repair a broken valve near Wendover Road. The valve was discovered during a water main break in August 2012 that flooded portions of the Saw Mill River and Cross County parkways and affected service to as many as 70,000 city residents.
A result of the upcoming shutdown will likely be low water pressure in southwest ...

Normally on the last day of the month, I post some music or other feel good videos to take a break from the dismal, heart sickening, documenting and cataloging of black on white violent crime. Today, being Easter Sunday and shortly after the passing of Lawrence Auster, takes on a special significance:
Here is another great obit by another great blogger in the race reality blogosphere, Paul Kersey:
R.I.P Lawrence Auster
Lawrence Auster's work had a profound influence on shaping the political philosophy of SBPDL. Months ago, in a private conversation with him, I was able to convey my deep sense of gratitude in all that he had done to help promote and legitimize this site to his audience, but most importantly, what he had done to help shape my thinking about the world.
As the United States of America continues on its path to national suicide, those who remember the work of Lawrence Auster know we simply have one task at hand -- survive what is coming.
We only have to win once -- those who hate the civilization of the West must continue to wage a war against us from every conceivable angle.
We only have to win once.
And now some good old time, country gospel music to mark the day and the occasion:
At the end of the movie "Deep Impact," the president of the United States (played by Morgan Freeman) gives a powerful oration to those surviving humans who are tasked with rebuilding a world ravaged by a meteorite.
He says:
"Cities fall, but they are rebuilt. And heroes die, but they are remembered. We honor them with every brick we lay, with every field we sow, with every child we comfort and then teach to rejoice in what we have been regiven."There will come a day when we find ourselves in a similar scenario, when the leveling forces of egalitarianism and what we've dubbed Black-Run America (BRA) comes to an end.
Lawrence Auster was there to act as a light house for those souls hoping to traverse the rocky waters of modernity, shining a beacon of truth in an epoch that values obfuscation of facts and the acknowledgement of any merit behind ideas that can labeled "intolerant" or "ignorant" to keep from debating them.
R.I.P Lawrence Auster.
Angel Band
My latest sun is sinking fast, my race is nearly run.
My strongest trials now are past, my triumph has begun
O come Angel Band, come & around me stand
O bear me away on your snow white wings to my immortal home
O bear me away on your snow white wings to my immortal home
I'll fly away
Some bright morning when this life is over
I'll fly away
To that home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh glory
I'll fly away (in the morning)
When I die hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away
In my Father's House there are many mansions.
God walks these hills with me
Finally, Easter celebrates the resurrection of Christ.
With that theme, perhaps one day, American justice will be revived and equal justice for all will prevail and the "liberal" racist double standard will prevail no more:

Happy Easter Yall!
