"We can all learn from mistakes, but it's best to learn from others." - Preston Freeman
Many youth believe the streets are the place to be. Professional boxer Preston Freeman believed just that, until he tested them out and found out that was not the place to grow up in.
Freeman is a 19-year-old training and living with the Garcia Boxing family in Salinas. Growing up in St. Louis, in a community much like Salinas, but larger, Freeman saw the life of the streets as a place to be. Dropping out of school seemed like the right option, so Freeman did just that.
"I realized it wasn't what I thought it would be," Freeman said. "I found out the hard way that the streets are no place for anyone who wants to be somebody. Things get tough and no one is around to help."
Freeman was introduced to boxing at 11. Although enjoyable; Freeman didn't see it as his life. Freeman wanted what he saw around his community.
"I tested the streets, things got out of control," he said. "Things I don't even want to talk about took place and I knew I had to change my life. I returned to boxing and began to focus on a real future."
Freeman returned to the gym and realized boxing was where a future stood. With support from his family and those that wanted better for him, Freeman found the right place to be. It wasn't long after that Freeman was offered the opportunity to move away from such chaos and far from those streets.
"I moved to Salinas to better myself," Freeman said. "In St. Louis I had too many distractions. Salinas is the best place to be compared to where I was. Here, I have a future with the Garcia family and boxing."
Freeman has had three professional fights since joining the Garcias - all wins. Freeman's last fight was a four-round unanimous decision victory over Vicente Guzman on Dec. 15. At the fight were Freeman's father and uncle, who have always supported Freeman and helped in making the right decision to return to boxing.
"My family has always been there for me," Freeman said. "They always give me that final push to do what is right. They are the ones who helped me get out of the troubled streets and back into boxing. I have my father by my side and my uncle as well. My family and I have always been very close."
Family support has been an important part of Freeman's life. Moving to Salinas and away from family was not easy, but Freeman has stayed close to them and feels that he now has a family in Salinas as well.
"I am very close to the Garcia family, I support them as much as they support me," he said. "It's great to have people who believe in you. I've had my family my whole life and now I have the Garcia family, it's pretty great."
In Salinas, Freeman has focused on boxing and giving it his all. The streets are no longer a temptation.
"I was blessed to come out here," Freeman said. "The Garcia family and mine helped me find what I was meant to be. The streets are the worst place for anyone."
Freeman plans to continue boxing and finish his high school diploma. He advises youth to find a career and know that the streets are not luxurious.
"I dropped out of school because I felt the streets where the best place," he said. "Truth is, there was nothing to do, and there was no life. Stay in school, find your focus. Without an education or a goal in life, there is nothing."
Freeman now has a focus, a career and looks forward to a continued relationship with his family and the Garcia family. His efforts make him this week's Valley VIP.

Re: The Past Decade of Trek Lit
I just finished David Mack's two parter "A Time to Kill" / "A Time to Heal".
I almost skipped this one because the premise didn't sound terribly interesting as it was just about one planet of the week, but the fact that it was from the author of Destiny changed my mind.
I'm glad I did because it was quite excellent! Mack really makes epic and cinematic Trek tales. And he manages to make the characters, and Starfleet in general, come off as total bad asses. These two books were just chocked full of amazing war sequences given a sense of gritty "realism" despite the often cartoonish technological levels of Star Trek.
I also enjoyed the thinly veiled Iraq War metaphor about the entire affair. And I especially loved Section 31 working behind the scenes, completely invisible to everyone else, content to let events transpire without intervention but ready to step in and destroy most of the planet if necessary. The moral quagmire of the story was really well done; the characters are disgusted by what they're forced to cover up, but exposing it would create a disasterous war with the Klingons. Great stuff!
I was surprised but pleased at the end when it's implied that
Section 31 is going to assassinate the Federation President the moment he leaves office

Quality Stats Power Rankings: We Size Up The Final 8
By Brandon Burnett (@B_Burnett49er)
Cold Hard Football Facts' Power Ranger
Were you a bit surprised that the Seattle Seahawks, once seemingly incapable of winning meaningful road games, went into Washington and slaughtered the Hogs in the wildcard round?
We weren't.
You see, the Quality Stats Power Rankings here at Cold, Hard Football Facts rarely steer us wrong. In fact, just as is the case this season, they're often deadly accurate. How accurate you ask? Well, let's take a quick look.
First, remember that our Power Rankings are not your normal power rankings in that they are not based on opinion whatsoever. The CHFF rankings place each NFL team from No. 1 to No. 32 based upon their average ranking across the board in each of our Quality Stats, each of which has a direct correlation to winning football games.
Now, take a quick look and you'll notice each of the Top 7 teams in our Power Rankings remain in the hunt for Super Bowl glory. Only the Baltimore Ravens (No. 11) sit outside the Top 8. In the wildcard round, all four of the higher-ranked teams defeated their lower-ranked counterparts.
It's no coincidence.
The Seahawks (No. 1) knocked off the Redskins (No. 7) with relative ease, and did so on the road. The Packers (No. 3) made quick work of the Vikings (No. 16) at Lambeau Field Saturday night. The Texans (No. 7) disposed of the Bengals (No. 9) and Baltimore (No. 11) put a hurtin' on Indy (No. 25).
That's good news this week for Seattle, Green Bay, Denver and New England, each of whom face lower-ranked teams in the divisional round.
The NFL is an unpredictable world, but our Quality Stats Power Rankings seem to have it all figured out.

I think you did a long press of the menu/ok button which locks the macro button so you don't hit it by chance. A second long press of the menu/ok button will reverse it.

715 reviews | 4.4 out of 5
May be I need to get a life ,but i love this printer. Key word wireless. I can be in my bed or outside on the porch and print wirelessly. It is also easy to set up. The best thing is now all the computers in the house can now print wirelessly. Did i mention how much i love this printer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can be away from home at my mother's house and print from her house and the print out is ready for me when i get home. I LOVE THIS PRINTER.
I can't believe how inexpensive printers have become over the years. This printer is a perfect home printer that gives you the ability to print from your iPhone or iPad (AirPrint), wireless device (eprint) or home network (wired or wireless) computer. Setup was simple and painless. Print quality is great and it does not make too much noise. It also serves as a scanner and copier. It comes with "regular" black and color print cartridges (non trial size), which alone is a great value. In fact, if i factor in the cost of the cartridges, I paid about $5.00 for the printer itself (black Friday deal). Even at it's regular price, I think this printer is well worth it. Would recommend this printer to anyone.
I bought this printer because of the unbeatable price, thinking it would be adequate for my needs. Little did I know that there is a design flaw in the line, which is probably why they are so deeply discounted. No matter which size of paper you use to print on, the final half inch of the sheet as it goes through the printer will remain blank. This means any photo, as well as graphics and text that reach this area will be cut off! Borderless printing? Forget it! Check online and you will see hundreds of complaints about this issue. It's common to any of the Deskjet printers in this series. I spent over an hour on the phone with HP's support people, all to no avail. When they finally concluded that it was indeed a hardware issue, they offered to replace it with a Deskjet 3050! I couldn't believe they wanted to downgrade me to one with less options but with the same problem! Needless to say, I refused and returned it instead! Don't waste you time folks!
This is a pretty decent printer IF you do not need it to be wireless. There are THOUSANDS of complaints. HP knows about it and are, allegedly, working on a fix.
...... don't waste your time or money.
On Sept 11, 2012 we ordered 2 of these printers. One for my daughter at college and one for home . The one for my daughter would not work at all.....returned. The printer for home worked fine for about a month. It will not print either wireless or connected to the computer. It too is going back.
Setting the printer up to my main computer was super simple, and I was surprised at how easy it was to connect to my laptop also. The convenience of being able to print wirelessly is priceless...but since I must put a price on it, I must say that this was a great deal! I am a bargain shopper, and getting the most for my dollar is very important to me; I must say I was not disappointed. All in all I am very satisfied and I would recommend this product to others.
Bought this on BLACK FRIDAY and returned it the next day. Software would never finish loading when the wireless mode was chosen. In the USB mode the software would keep wanting to download updates and some features would not load and "update" kept showing up on printer menu. Spent several hours trying different options on two different computers and decided this HP was not worth it. Wanted to try on a Windows 8 computer but got a message it was not compatible. HP has always had issues with keeping up with new Windows versions. I connected an older Brother laser printer to the Windows 8 computer, recognized it and set it up in just a few minutes. I noticed also on the HP 3056 that it is very light and feels like it would not stand up over time.
This seemed like the perfect solution for me. I have a new computer with windows 8 and thought to add a wireless printer. It will not work with windows 8. Had to return.
I have had this printer for 7 months. The first 5 months it worked as expected. I was able to print wirelessly from two Mac laptops and an Android phone via ePrint. Then, my router firmware was upgraded and we added a WEP password. Suddenly, even though we re-ran the install sequence (several times) and all computers recognize the printer, it will no longer print. The computers find it, the router finds it, but nothing happens when a job is sent to it. The printer window on the Mac even states it is printing! It still works great as a WIRED printer, but I hate having to go upstairs every time I need to print something. I contacted HP via their website in October 2012 and never got a response. We are disappointed to say the least.
I absolutely love this hp deskjet 3056A printer that I purchased from Walmart. It does everything its says without any disappointment. I use my printer EVERYDAY, multiple times a day. It has everything you could ask for in a wireless copier/scanner/printer at a price that is very affordable. I actually went back and purchased 2 more for gifts for my family!! Love it!!!
This was a Black Friday purchase so I got it at a great price! I purchased this one for my mother. It is very easliy setup. I have one of the same printers at my house too. I've had mine for a year and never had any trouble out of it.
For those of you out there like me whom own a wireless hand held device and are looking for a printer because you'd like to print right from it be forewarned just because this printer states wireless doesn't make it all that simple. To get it to print wirelessly you must connect it to the Internet and you handheld device can send it an email to get it to print.(waste of money part one) The second thing is that when it tries to connect and fails it prints a very colorful page stating such wasting paper and ink which let's face it, is not cheap (second waste of money). Do some more research and find something that is truly wireless not with strings attached.
This is the most convient printer I have ever owned. I can print from anywhere, and when I get home my pictures/documents are there. Awesome product... A must have!
After using this all in one printer for one day i can really say that this is the best printer i have ever had and the price is magnificent.
I bought this printer on Black Friday and love the wireless feature and being able to print from my smart phone!! Thanks!!
yes its just a printer. it does work well . what makes it a super good buy is the price and walmart service and its employees who do a very good job. give them a break and give them a smile and a hello . that will make everything go so smooth as it always does for me.
Product works great! The price was just right and the options on the printer is suitable for my needs. The only problem I had was that the installation CD did not work (which is typical of HP printers) I ended up going to their webpage and downloaded their installment which worked perfect.
I have a new HP laptop with windows 8 and I couldn't get the printer to work with the enclosed disk, but when I went to the HP site, they did have a free download that loaded easily and worked great. The printer is fast and quite and I'm very happy with it. I really like the wireless part and it was a great buy. I would highly recommend this printer.
I am LOVING this printer. It's easy to install & easy to use. The wireless aspect is FANTASTIC!
The printer is very lightweight. I am getting used to printing photos without a separate card. The price was good for an all-in-one machine!
It took all of ten minutes from unpacking to printing. Great photo prints.

Chalk Hill man charged in fatal Bullskin crash
Homicide by vehicle and other charges were filed against a Chalk Hill man stemming from a fatal vehicle collision in 2013.
This week, Daniel Linn Evans Sr., 58, of 46 LaFayette Trail was charged with homicide by vehicle, careless driving, reckless driving and other traffic violations before District Judge Ronald Haggerty Jr.
The charges were the result of a vehicle collision at the intersection of Route 119 and Kingview Road on April 4, 2013, when a Ford F-150 driven by Evans collided with a 1991 Chrysler Imperial driven by Darrell B. Bonomo, 63, of Export. Bonomo was pronounced dead at the scene from injuries suffered in the collision.
According to state police at Uniontown, Evans failed to stop at a red light as he was traveling along Route 119 in Bullskin and his pickup struck the driver's side door of Bonomo's vehicle as it was traveling through the intersection.
Evans, who was transported to Uniontown Hospital for minor injuries, told police that he was driving south in the passing lane and attempted to move into the driving lane after checking his vehicle mirrors.
Evans told police he looked backward and forward and then noticed a car pulling onto Route 119 from his right and he could not avoid hitting it. He told police that as far as he knew, the light was green.
According to court documents, witnesses at the scene told police the truck went through a red light before striking the car.
A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for Evans before Haggerty at 9 a.m. Thursday.
Evans is free on $20,000 unsecured bond.

DVD review: Before MidnightComment on this story
Before Midnight
Love isn't all sunshine and roses.
FILM: There are different phases in a relationship. And, many will concur, much transpires between the wooing stage and marriage.
Director Richard Linklater has done a commendable job in exploring the changes with his delightfully charming protagonists: novelist Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpy).
While Before Sunrise and Before Sunset dwelled on their electrifying attraction with those chance meetings, where time was, sadly, always a factor, the last movie in the trilogy, Before Midnight, picks up nine years later.
Now in their 40s, Jesse and Céline are married with two girls and they spend their summer holiday in Greece with Jesse's son joining them briefly.
The story starts with Jesse dropping off his son at the airport, which triggers some intense feelings of guilt for him.
On their drive back, the couple chat about him not being there for his son as much as he would like and about his strained relation- ship with his ex-wife. While the conversation is permeated by contrasting bouts of playfulness and seriousness, their love and congeniality as a couple is also magnified.
But as they spend the rest of the summer with Jesse's author friend and his extended family, the couple are forced to confront several issues in their marriage.
The situation becomes tenuous on a night when they are supposed to be on a romantic escape. A minor disagreement snowballs into a huge fight as both of them address suppressed issues pertaining to their careers, their family and how insipidly routine their lives have become.
Hawke and Delpy are mesmer- ising to watch as a couple. Whether they are fighting or taking a long stroll and reminiscing about the past, viewers can't help but identify with them.
And the picturesque setting and adroit direction leaves viewers completely enamoured with this romantic drama.

There are 2 users using the Adidas C300 OFF.From community:

Has plenty of power, but doesn't lose control as most OFF blades. Bit on the heavy side for my taste, but you get used to it fast enough.
chrisjeong on 8/28/2013
This is the best blade I have played with!!! Not too slow and not too fast very good with a chinese rubber.
yogi_bear on 1/21/2012
C300 Size: 152 x 157mm blade head Weight: 85 grams Thickness: 7mm Plies: 5 (Limba-ayous-kiri-ayous-limba) Rubbers used: Adidas P7, Dawei 388 Speed, Adidas Syntec Fast The C300 is the thickest blade among any other C-series blades. The 7mm thickness provides substantial amount of power that it feels like a 7 ply blade when playing with it. I have to admit im biased with the C300 since Im an all wood blade lover. The limba and ayous plies provide good feel and control for the blade and kiri center ply provides good speed. This is for players who do not want to lose control in shifting to a this blade but having enough power and speed for their offensive shots. This is an offensive blade, a true OFF blade. It has a medium sweetspot but good enough for attacks. When I was looping with this blade it felt like I was using a clipper wood in a 5 ply blade which is lighter. Chinese rubbers are very much appreciated using this set up. Its liek this blade is built for close to the table attacks with control over the short game. I love doing drop shots, flicks and short pushes with the C300 because it was designed for players who wants to play in and out of the table while maintaining their touch and control over delicate strokes. Blocking and countering is very good with this rubber. I also suspect that this will be a good short pip blade but I havent had the chance to test it yet. Recommended rubbers: 1. Adidas Tenzone regular 2. Adidas Tenzone SF 3. Adidas Syntec Fast

Re: Classic Who on BBC America
Mr Awe wrote:
This is my own theory, which could admittedly be full of hot air. At anyrate, I think the pick for the Pertwee serial will be meaningful in terms of whether we'll get a multi-Doctor anniversary special.
If they pick The Three Doctors, it's to set the stage for newbies about the idea of multiple Doctors.
However, if they don't pick The Three Doctors, it's because they don't want people to expect a multi-Doctor anniversary special.
The problem there is that it's BBC
that's running the past-Doctor specials, and despite the name, they're not really the same entity as
BBC. They're owned by BBC Worldwide, but they're an American network with American executives (which is why they show so much American TV with only tenuous British connections, like
Star Trek TNG
). So the people who make the decisions about what programs BBC America will broadcast are not the same people who are making the decisions about what new
Doctor Who
stories BBC Cymru Wales will produce. Which means that the BBCA schedulers might not actually know what the anniversary special will be about.

THERE IS NOTHING more magical than football in the snow. If you grew up anywhere in the wintry half of this country, you probably have fond memories of hiking up your snow pants and sloshing around with your buddies and your Pete Rozelle-signed football in the backyard drifts - and the only thing that comes a close second to playing football in the snow is watching a classic NFL matchup in a furious downpour of the white stuff.

Rattle leads the Berlin Philharmonic through Sibelius's symphonies at the Barbican
The best part of a love affair, wrote Georges Clémenceau some hundred years ago, is the moment you are climbing the stairs. It was, one hopes, not a cynical remark but a commentary on the pleasures of anticipation. I thought of this last month as I negotiated stairs at London's Barbican Centre. A visit by the Berlin Philharmonic is always, if not a love affair, then certainly a thrill. But the otherwise admirable and much used Barbican is a windowless maze, and climbing the various levels can make for the seeming triumph of cluelessness over romance.
Wagner, Tannhäuser Overture. Sibelius, Symphony No. 2 – the BSO's first recording under Andris Nelsons
I don't think I have heard the Boston Symphony sound this full and deep since Koussevitzky. This CD inaugurates Andris Nelsons' era at the helm of the BSO and signals a reinforcement of the orchestra's considerable strengths in the more brooding side of the continental repertory.
What is and what might have been: More Nelsons at the BSO, Chailly and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra
I couldn't have been more eager to hear Riccardo Chailly and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra on their return visit to Boston, part of an American tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of the "Peaceful Revolution" that began in Leipzig in October 1989 and a month later led to the fall of the Berlin wall. Chailly continues to be one of most significant and enriching conductors of our time, and it was profoundly frustrating that, in January of 2012, heart problems prevented him from making his long overdue BSO debut (conducting, among other things, Stravinsky's Sacre du printemps). This cancellation also put him out of the running as a possible replacement for James Levine as BSO music director. There was no way the BSO would risk hiring another music director with health problems. And yet, apparently recovered, here he was in Boston.
A Week of Music in Chapel Hill: Two Conductors, Two Concerts, One Young Composer, a fine Pianist and a Cat
This is a piece about coming of age, so I suppose I should start with Tonu Kalam's cat, always more vocal than musical, but who has approached gravitas since kittenhood two years ago with remarkably matured powers of persuasion! "Dolce" belongs to Kalam and his fiancée, Karyn Ostrom. And his progress towards getting what he wants with supreme efficiency seems to match the improvements I hear in the UNC Symphony Orchestra, which Kalam directs and manages, and where Karyn plays violin among the firsts. In his maturity, "Dolce" has nearly mastered the front doorknob to go outside and roll all over the concrete path and collect pollen, which he unaccountably enjoys. In the past, the expression of his wishes might have seemed less coherent. Today it is focused and not to be trifled with.
Trifonov Triumphs at the San Francisco Symphony with Rachmaninoff's Paganini Variations. Vänskä conducts Sibelius's Night Ride and Sunrise, Stravinsky Symphonies of Wind Instruments, and Sibelius' Symphony No. 6
Whenever you attend an orchestral concert, I'm sure you will have noticed that "Double D" on your ticket stub represents not the seating of the audience by bra size (an intriguing notion), but something more like a banishment to Siberia! "DD" is the last row of orchestra seats in Davies Hall, and at that distance music can become less visceral.
This time, though, I was happy to sit back in the hall, particularly for the music programmed on the second half.
Susanna Mälkki conducts the San Francisco Symphony in Grisey, Prokofiev, and Sibelius, with Horacio Gutiérrez, piano
Music making, one supposes wryly, can sometimes be a battle of influences. In this instance, simply put, how does one reconcile late romantic Sibelius with the compositional methods of Pierre Boulez? The very thought might give one chills….
I was intrigued to hear IRCAM's Susanna Mälkki recently, and not simply to touch base with the new generation of influential women at the podium. I wanted to experience how her musical approach would walk the line between cerebral pointillism of the Boulezian sort and the kind of broad Barbirollian phrasing favored by Leif Segerstam, with whom she studied. Mälkki was one of the principal cellists in the Gothenburg Symphony — for Sibelius lovers a considerable entry on the romantic side of the ledger — but I find myself disappointed to say that in this instance the French modernists appear to have won most of the battles of influence.
Sibelius III: Reflections on the 2011 Bard Music Festival
"I'd go anywhere to hear a Sibelius-palooza like this," exclaimed Beth, a New York television producer and first-time Bard Festival visitor. Ernest, a veteran of many festivals and a geneticist in his 70s, credited Bard with inspiring him to revisit a childhood dream and take courses at Bard's Conductor's Institute. Lisa from Woodstock usually opts […]
Sibelius II: Larry Wallach on the Bard Music Festival 2011 – Jean Sibelius and his World
Originality is a hard concept to get a hold of — there is no yardstick for measuring it, by its very nature. This makes the evaluation of composers, the assessment of their influence and historical position, one of the most subjective areas of music history and criticism. Contemporary writers have become impatient with their predecessors' habit of rating composers in terms of "importance" or "greatness" based, at least in part, on their originality. And then there is the issue of "unique voice" — is that the same as originality? Is their any good composer who lacks either one? Can "uniqueness" be evaluated?

BERLIN -- Imagine a 23-inch TV you could take in the bath, stick to your refrigerator door, or plonk on your kitchen workspace. That's the promise of the Sony Portable Short Throw Projector, which lights up any room and turns any wall or surface into a TV and a touchscreen.
A short-throw projector beams an image a short distance, unlike a conventional projector like the ones at the movies or the type you use to show off your holiday snaps. For example, a short-throw device might sit at the base of a wall and project onto the space above it, correcting the image to sort out any distortion so the image looks right to people standing in front of it. Because it isn't projecting across the room, you won't have to worry about people throwing popcorn at you because your shadow won't be cast on the wall if you walk in front of the picture.
Sony made waves earlier this year with its monster 4K Ultra Short Throw Projector , a huge bar that squats on the floor and beams an enormous, eye-scorchingly detailed 4K image on the wall. Sensors in the ceiling mean you can control the image with your hand, waving at 4K movies or swiping through photos with an airy wave of the hand.
The new portable version expands on this idea while shrinking it. It's a cube about the size of a box of tissues so it can go anywhere -- and wherever it goes it has different clever purposes.
First of all, the 23-inch image can show a TV program or movie on any surface. It's waterproof, so you can perch it on the side of the bath and watch by candlelight. Take it into the kitchen and you can project a recipe onto the countertop, putting an end to the problem of turning recipe book pages with sauce-soaked fingers. In any room, it can project a magazine or website to peruse at your leisure.
Stick the Short Throw Projector on the fridge and it beams photos, notes, drawings, and reminders onto the surface as a kind of virtual, interactive pinboard. It's connected wirelessly, so not only can you throw pictures to the wall from your phone, but people in different places can see the same thing. You could share a family noticeboard with your folks, for example, and as photos are automatically backed up from phones to projector, both homes can see the latest family snaps.
Exact specs are thin on the ground, but I saw the projector demonstrated at a mock-up of a living room at technology trade show IFA in Berlin. Even with the lights up, the projector was impressively bright when used as a pinboard or projecting onto a kitchen surface.
The Short Throw Projector was part of a demonstration of a smart home in which even the most workaday items do something clever, whether it's the lightbulbs with built-in speakers or the lampshades that project photos onto the table. They're mostly prototypes, but don't have to be the stuff of science fiction: Archos is planning to sell its own lightbulb with a speaker in it, and in its IFA press conference Sony made noises about the Short Throw Projector coming to real homes at some point.
Exact details are yet to be confirmed, but we know that it will at least be a little easier on the wallet than the monstrous 4K Ultra Projector -- Sony reckons that if it ever went on sale it would take a chunk out of your bank account in the neighbourhood of $30,000 to $40,000.

Although I ride practically every day for commuting and errands, I don't really do distance anymore. So today, I did a century I've done many times in the past with no prep whatsoever just to see what would happen.
First the bad news. I logged the slowest time ever for a century with less than 10K feet of climbing. I probably should have brought a prosthetic beard and belly just to complete the picture.
However, today may be the best I've ever felt at the finish. Because my legs were so weak, I couldn't pedal hard enough to stress my body. Normally, I can barely hold anything down and have to force myself to eat/drink. But I was able to eat anything I wanted all day. Eggs and sausage for breakfast. At mile 55, I ate two bowls of chilli, a tub of sour cream, a half cup of salsa, and a handful of cheese. At the rest stops, I was throwing down fruit, nuts and all kinds of good stuff. I can't say for sure that I didn't eat more than I burned today. Zero side effects of eating all that crap which BTW tasted great. And with the exception of my legs, I felt fantastic all day.
So despite the fact that my time sucked, this is the way I plan to ride in the future since it's way more fun. When you try to ride with the big boys, you inevitably spend most of the time staring at some guy's butt. This way, you actually get to smell the roses...

Resilient is a personal essay about a newspaper article that portrayed my family as being highly dysfunctional and abusive, while looking at how I saw my family growing up.
We sit down, sing a short prayer, and dig in. Seth waves his arms in the air and makes a banging sound in the back of his throat. My dad laughs and pushes his hands down as my mom sets a plate of food in front of him. Laughter fills the air as turkey, stuffing, corn, and cranberry sauce is passed around the table in an intimate dinner.
My dad looks at me and jokes that he hasn't seen me smile that much since I hit my first home run when I was seven.
All I can do is laugh.
I found the newspaper article in a shoe box as I unpacked the boxes in my new room. I stopped what I was doing to read it. I sifted through a few other newspaper articles in the box that mentioned some of my awards in track and softball, but I kept coming back to that article.
The real story that the article failed to find was that my family was one of love. There has never been a day in my life that I have doubted my parents' love for myself or my brothers. When it really mattered most they were always there. There were moments when things were difficult. Chris used to cut himself. My dad had a mental breakdown. My mom was emotionally distant at points. Seth's autism was always an obstacle. But we came past all of that.
The article wanted a story of resiliency in two kids. What it should have been looking for was a story of resiliency in a family.

If you choose to have someone prepare your tax return, choose that preparer wisely. A paid tax return preparer is primarily responsible for the overall substantive accuracy of your return and by law, is required to sign the return and include their preparer tax identification number (PTIN) on it. Although the tax return preparer signs the return, you are ultimately responsible for the accuracy of every item reported on your return. Anyone paid to prepare tax returns for others should have a thorough understanding of tax matters and is required to have a PTIN. You may want to ask friends, co-workers or your employer for help in selecting a competent tax return preparer.
Choose a tax return preparer you will be able to contact in case the IRS examines your return and has questions regarding how your return was prepared. You can designate your paid tax return preparer or another third party to speak to the IRS concerning the preparation of your return, payment/refund issues and mathematical errors. The third party authorization checkbox on Form 1040 (PDF), Form 1040A (PDF) and Form 1040EZ (PDF) gives the designated party the authority to receive and inspect returns and return information for one year from the original due date of your return (without regard to extensions). See Topic 312 for information on how to extend the authority to receive and inspect returns and return information to a third party using Form 8821 (PDF), Tax Information Authorization.
Most tax return preparers are professional, honest and provide excellent service to their clients. However, dishonest and unscrupulous tax return preparers who file false income tax returns do exist. You should always check your return for errors to avoid potential financial and legal problems. See information about Abusive Return Preparers on IRS.gov.
The following points will assist you when selecting a tax return preparer:
- Be wary of tax return preparers who claim they can obtain larger refunds than others can.
- Avoid tax return preparers who base their fees on a percentage of the refund or who offer to deposit all or part of your refund into their financial accounts
- Ensure you use a preparer with a preparer tax identification number (PTIN). Paid tax return preparers must have a preparer tax identification number to prepare all or substantially all of a tax return.
- Use a reputable tax professional who furnishes their PTIN, signs the tax return and provides you a copy of the return (as required).
- Consider whether the individual or firm will be around for months or years after filing the return to answer questions about the preparation of the tax return.
- Check the person's credentials. Only attorneys, CPAs and enrolled agents can represent taxpayers before the IRS in all matters, including audits, collection and appeals. Other tax return preparers may only represent taxpayers for audits of returns they actually prepared.
For more information about choosing a tax return preparer, see Choosing a Tax Professional and IRS Tax PRO Association Partners on IRS.gov. See PTIN Requirements for Tax Return Preparers on our website, for additional tax return preparer requirements. To help you find a tax professional with credentials and select qualifications to prepare your tax return, see our online tool, Directory of Federal Tax Return Preparers with Credentials and Select Qualifications at IRS.treasury.gov/rpo/rpo.jsf.
