This one centers on the older woman/ younger girl dynamic with the added element the two being related-- okay it's step Mom/ Step Daughter to be more precise. Four good couples here too with each scene uniquely set up before the action got going. Strong oral sex throughout which was very important to making this one a success and with Bonnie Rotten & Veronica Avluv in the finale there was squirting as well and a strap on. read the reviewCaptain Jack review on 1/10/2015 Jacky St. James is at it again!

They explore that dynamic in four scenes here in slightly different ways which all lead to hot sex between the four pairs of ladies. Pretty strong oral sex here plus a bit of ass licking too in a couple of the scenes as I recall. The picture quality is there as well making this an easy recommendation. read the reviewastroknight review on 10/24/2014 This is yet another smoking hot release from Jacky St. James. Every scene has a nice setup and chemistry that's off the chart while playing with the stepmother / stepdaughter theme.

This time around the focus is on stepmoms with their stepsons, and the action flows just as well as one has come to expect in the series. The technical aspects show some very nice care and there's nice effort put into the extras. If you're a fan of MILFs and the family theme, this one should be well worth the purchase. read the reviewbono-ONE review on 6/7/2014 A recent release from award winning director/ writer Jacky St. James. This show focuses on role playing but a specific kind focusing in on Step moms and their Step sons. You can guess where this leads to and the journey is well worth taking. There are fantastic voice over set ups for each scene before the action takes over. The set ups are easy to follow and for fantasy fans of this genre you should definitely check this out. read the reviewShane Diesel's Cuckold Stories 9: MILF Edition (3.5 stars from 1 review)Starring: Raylene, Caroline Pierce, Shane Diesel, Karen Fisher, Tara HolidayStudio: Digital SinDirected by: Paul WoodcrestRelease date: 5/23/2013Previews: Movie TrailerShane Diesel's Cuckold Stories 9: MILF Edition reviews: Captain Jack review on 6/10/2013 Older women finally realize that their man just isn�t doing it for them. They need a big black cock so they cuckold their husbands. Raylene and Caroline Pierce headline the cast and anything with Raylene in it is worth your time. read the reviewMama's Got Big Boobies (4.0 stars from 1 review)Starring: Erik Everhard, Ramon Nomar, Jordan Ash, Jessica Bangkok, Bridgette B., Eva Karera, Bruce Venture, Kiara MiaStudio: Digital SinDirected by: Buster HumpRelease date: 3/7/2013Previews: Movie TrailerMama's Got Big Boobies reviews: astroknight review on 8/17/2013 This one's well worth picking up if you're a fan of big titty MILFs. Eva Karera, Jessica Bangkok, Bridgette B., and Kiara Mia each do a great job in their scene, and the action is very nicely captured with the ladies looking more than hot. The technical aspects show some good care, and there's also a bit of effort put into the extras with a pair of bonus scenes. This is a darn hot movie. read the reviewBig MILF Juggs 3 (4.5 stars from 1 review)Starring: Raylene, Mr. Pete, Mick Blue, Jewels Jade, Tanya Tate, Vanilla Deville, Xander Corvus, Bruce VentureStudio: Digital SinDirected by: Jacky St. JamesRelease date: 2/14/2013Previews: Movie TrailerBig MILF Juggs 3 reviews: astroknight review on 3/11/2013 If you're a fan of big tits, MILFs, or just plain well shot sex with great chemistry, this is a must buy release. Once again Jacky St. James shows herself as a filmmaker to watch, and with the help of a great cast of big titty MILFs including Jewels Jade, Raylene, Tanya Tate, and Vanilla Deville turns out a movie that's not just darn hot, but very sexy as well. The technical aspects also show some great care and there's plenty of effort put into the extras to make this an all around great release. This is a really great release that's definitely worth the purchase. read the reviewDirty Over 30 (Digital Sin) (2.0 stars from 1 review)Starring: Tommy Gunn, Chris Johnson, Diamond Foxx, McKenzie Lee, Puma Swede, Justice Young, Brooke Banner, Claudia Valentine, Cristian Devil, Christian ClayStudio: Digital SinDirected by: Andrew YoungmanRelease date: 10/25/2012Previews: Movie TrailerDirty Over 30 (Digital Sin) reviews: astroknight review on 11/26/2012 Rent this one if you're into the cast, but otherwise pass this one by. The cast is decent, but the movie never seems to live up to the potential one would expect from the cast. The technical aspects aren't quite up to the average mark, and there's no real effort put into the extras. This one's a bit of a disappointment. read the reviewYour Mom Made Me Cum (4.0 stars from 1 review)Starring: Billy Glide, Mark Wood, Troy Halston, Manuel Ferrara, Mark Ashley, Holly Halston, Maria Bellucci, Anthony Rosano, Diamond Foxx, Shane Diesel, Danny Mountain, Lacey Love, Alex Gonz, Jordan Ash, Sienna West, Kendra Secrets, Rhylee Richards, Jami Kenney, Jordan Kingsley, Tanya Tate, Michael Vegas, Nikki DanielsStudio: Digital SinRelease date: 11/17/2011Previews: Movie TrailerYour Mom Made Me Cum reviews: Captain Jack review on 12/28/2011 The title made me laugh. MILF�s are all the rage down in the valley and Digital Sin is there to capture all the action. This is a 2-disk compilation from the archives of the aforementioned studio covering over 5 and a half hours of adult viewing pleasure. read the reviewMILFs And Their Toys 6 (4.0 stars from 1 review)Starring: Raylene, Austin Taylor, CeCe Stone, Capri Cavanni, Persia Pele, Isabella RossaStudio: Digital SinDirected by: Mario RossiRelease date: 3/31/2011Previews: Movie TrailerMILFs And Their Toys 6 reviews: astroknight review on 4/16/2012 If you want MILFs taking on BIG toys, this release is for you. Mario Rossi nicely captures six MILFs working on themselves with huge toys with Austin Taylor, Capri Cavalli, and Raylene standing out nicely. The technical aspects are solidly above average with the extras also showing some very nice care. This is a very solid release. read the reviewManuel Ferrara Is A MILF Whore (3.0 stars from 1 review)Starring: Manuel Ferrara, Diamond Foxx, McKenzie Lee, Cheyenne Hunter, Sienna West, Sophia LomeliStudio: Digital SinRelease date: 2/17/2011Previews: Movie TrailerManuel Ferrara Is A MILF Whore reviews: astroknight review on 3/15/2011 This is a decent but limited release. Manuel brings out all the chemistry from the cast that one normally expects, but the action is a bit too limited and similar to let the movie shine too much. The technical aspects barely make it past the average mark due to a fair amount of background noises, but the extras are very nice with a great behind the scenes featurette. This isn't a bad release but it also didn't live up to my expectations. read the reviewMilfs and Their Toys 5 (3.5 stars from 1 review)Starring: Lucky Starr, Gisselle, Velicity Von, Jaylene Rio, Ariella Ferrera, Persia MonirStudio: Digital SinRelease date: 12/17/2009Previews: Movie TrailerMilfs and Their Toys 5 reviews: Big Raider Fan review on 3/5/2010 Milfs and Their Toys 5 from Digital Sin is almost 3 hours of lovely Milfs fucking themselves with realistic dildos in various sizes and colors. The film is presented in widescreen, with decent chapter stops. The 6 women featured (Velicity Von, Gisselle, Jaylene Rio, Ariella Ferrera, Persia Monir, and Lucky Starr) are all attractive, and pretty vocal while they fuck themselves. Extras include behind the scenes footage, a bonus scene, photo gallery, trailers, web trailer, and company info.

Older Women Need Love, Too #2 2006, 1 hours and 55 minutes New Sensations Directed by Brother Love Starring Andrea Jaxxx, Veronica Rayne, Cheyenne Hunter, Kala Prettyman & Rossana De La Vega What You Should Know: Im not sure if its because Im getting older or Im just bored with the barely legal genre in porn but the emergence of more mature women titles lately has captured my interest. The truth is, the vast majority of the women who are typecast in these MILF movies either dont have kids or are hardly old enough to be considered older. Or maybe I just tell myself that so Ill feel less guilty when Im watching them. But why the guilt? Im probably closer to their age than that of 18-year-old little girls like Aubrey Adams. For anyone else that is feeling those pangs of guilt, Ive got your back. read the reviewPage 1 of 1 Current FiltersDigital Sin XAvailable FiltersTrailers (19)CategoryAll Girl (3)All Sex (12)Barely Legal (3)Busty (3)Compilation (2)Cream Pies (4)Fetish (6)Interracial (4)Masturbation (2)Straight (1)DirectorAndrew Youngman (1)Brother Love (1)Buster Hump (1)Eddie Powell (1)Jacky St. James (6)Mario Rossi (6)Miles Long (1)Paul Woodcrest (3) AdultDVDTalk.com is not a store.

Welcome, Jody - when I lived about 80-miles from Atlanta, I thought it was great that I could drive to the 14th Street exit, turn left and there was a photo store with everything I needed (I think it was Wolf). Now I log onto the Internet and there's even more stuff. Buy from our sponsors.
I'm in a camera club in which, I think, only two of us still regularly use film. We have an outing to Cumberland Island Saturday and I know most of them will be running around with cameras the size of a pack of playing cards firmly mounted on a tripod for every shot. I'm taking my 8x10 - that should be good for some stares.

An early morning beating at a Northeast Anchorage mobile home park sent a homeless man to the hospital, according to police. Officers using a police dog caught two suspects shortly after the attack, a police spokesman said.
A man living in the park at 1001 Boniface Parkway heard the assault and found an injured man on the ground outside his home about 1:30 a.m., said police spokesman Lt. Dave Parker.
The man, Daniel Workman, told officers he was homeless and had been attacked by four young men who pedaled away on mountain bikes, Parker said.
"The suspect we (later) arrested hauled off and hit him in the face, knocked him into the ground, and then stomped on his head," Parker said.
Workman was bleeding from the front and back of his head, and an ambulance took him to a local hospital with lacerations and broken bones in his face, police said.
Officer Jason Whetsell and a police dog, Dutch, tracked the suspects' scent to another part of the park, police said.
"As they approached the front, three suspects bolted out the back," Parker said.
But officers found 20-year-old Kenneth Towksjhea Jr. inside, and Dutch and Whetsell followed three others. They found the juveniles at another mobile home, police said.
The other suspects told police Towksjhea started the beating and had been the main attacker, Parker said. Workman, the victim, also said Towksjhea had emptied his pockets but found nothing valuable to steal, police said.
Towksjhea was arrested for first-degree assault and first-degree robbery, police said.
An assault charge against one of the juveniles is pending because he admitted to punching Workman while he was on the ground, Parker said. Information on the assault was forwarded to juvenile justice authorities, he said.
It was unclear why Workman was in the park or why he was attacked, Parker said.
"There was some talk that one of the four had said something about this man having done something to him," Parker said. "But that turned out to be bogus, or at least (the officers) couldn't corroborate that."
Towksjhea was held without bail pending his arraignment, which is set for today.

Norm Nixon Rumors
Beasley's talent rarely gives people pause about the three-year, $18 million contract that he agreed to sign with Phoenix. It is whether he has the character, maturity and consistent drive to reach his potential as the 2008 draft's No. 2 pick. "Phoenix got a steal," said Nixon, 56, a former two-time All-Star guard who played for the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers. "Trust me. If the Suns are rebuilding, here's a guy who can play 10 years and be one of the best players in the league. I don't give that compliment out easily."
Nixon became involved last year at the request of Minnesota General Manager David Kahn and Beasley's agent, Jeff Schwartz, who both saw the impact Nixon had as Jalen Rose's mentor in Indiana. "The smarter guys become off the floor, the better players they become," Nixon said. "Michael is a great kid. A lot of the problems he had were because of who was surrounding him. Sometimes, you have to eliminate those distractions. "Once you get a tag, it's hard to shake. Once you see his work ethic and see him off the court, you'll be pleasantly surprised."
Nixon's influence can be seen in Beasley's slimmer and more flexible body. Nixon's wife is Debbie Allen, the actress, director and famed choreographer who owns an L.A. dance studio and Nixon and Beasley spent time there this summer applying the stretching elements of dance to Beasley's body. Included one day was a lesson from a prima ballerina with the Bolshoi. "When you start teaching guys and make them understand better about their bodies, they become better pros," Nixon said.
"You have seen Michael's talent, I don't think there's a question about the talent," Nixon said. "What most people don't realize is he's 22. He's just a kid. When young guys come into the league at 18, 19, they're more comfortable having people around them. I think as you mature and get older, you need to peel some of that entourage off. He's getting to the stage now where he's getting to be a leader on this team.

Each Friday I list my "Five prospects" that I'll be focusing on for the upcoming weekend. In reality, I'm focusing on dozens of prospects each week, but the players listed below are playing in high profile games and against the caliber of competition that I believe provides us with an opportunity to truly assess how a collegiate player might fare when asked to make the huge jump to the NFL.
Typically I focus on senior prospects in this space. However, with it becoming more and more obvious as to which underclassmen are considering the jump to the pros, I'll be incorporating a few more juniors and redshirt sophomores in the coming weeks.
Because I'm scouting them in real time these players make an early impression, often leading to consideration as my Prospect of the Week or Diamond in the Rough.
Even more often, however, it leads to the player being featured in Draft Slant , NFLDraftScout.com and CBSSports.com's weekly NFL Draft preview. In each PDF issue of Draft Slant Senior Analyst Chad Reuter and I break down six more players in Filmroom Notes, update our Top 32 prospects overall, Top 10 per position, Risers/Fallers for multiple games and offer extensive previews of the next week's action. I boast about our product for a simple reason: Having seen everything else out there - it is the most complete weekly NFL draft guide on the planet.
Here is the link to this week's issue of Draft Slant. Or for the entire season click this link . Looking for a specific week? Download past issues from the past three years here.
Without any further adieu, here are the five prospects, as well as the cable provider and time you can expect to see them.
DE/OLB Chis Carter, Fresno State: Fresno State ranked second to last in entire country last season with only nine combined sacks. This season, they rank sixth with 27 sacks through nine games. A big part of that is the play of 6-2, 240 pound pass rusher Chris Carter, who has nine sacks, himself this season. Carter will be going up against Boise State junior left tackle Nate Potter, a legitimate NFL prospect. The winner of this individual battle could go a long way in determining whether Pat Hill's bunch is able to throw a scare into the No. 4 team in the country. This game begins at 9:30 pm EST tonight and will be televised by ESPN.
WR Jerrel Jernigan, Troy: Draft enthusiasts certainly know Jernigan's name by now, but they'll get an opportunity to see NFLDraftScout.com's No. 2 rated senior WR against an SEC defense Saturday morning when the Trojans travel to meet Steve Spurrier's No. 17 ranked South Carolina Gamecocks. Jernigan is only 5-09, but he can fly. He'll see time as a receiver, returner and potentially even in some Wildcat formations. The Gamecocks feature a superstar receiver of their own in sophomore Alshon Jeffery, but don't be surprised if Jernigan is statistically up to the challenge. This game begins at 12:21 pm EST Saturday and will be televised by ESPN.
DT Jerrell Powe, Mississippi: Entering the season Powe was viewed as a potential Top 10 prospect. Now, his disappointing season has him fighting to remain in the top two rounds. Powe reminded the media this week that he could return for another year. An academic non-qualifier previously, Powe is on pace to earn his Criminal Justice degree and thereby trigger an NCAA rule that would grant him another season if he wanted to put off an NFL career. It has been a disappointing season for Powe and for the 4-6 Rebels (1-5 in the SEC), in general, but a strong performance Saturday against LSU could be just the breakout each needs. This game begins at 3:30 pm EST and will be televised by CBS.
DT Christian Ballard, Iowa: Everyone knows that this game pitts two of the top senior defensive ends in the country in Ohio State's Cameron Heyward and Iowa's Adrian Clayborn. Ballard rarely gets the media attention, but I assure you, scouts know him well. In fact, I've had some tell me they believe Ballard could prove to be a first round pick based on his athletic upside. The 6-4, 298 pounder has experience inside and out, making him one of the more verastile defensive linemen in the draft and one potentially capable of playing effectively in the 3-4 and 4-3. Ballard has had his moments in previous games I've scouted, but hasn't dominated. His play could prove critical in this game. If Iowa is able to contain Terrelle Pryor with just their front four, they could pull off the upset at home. This game begins at 3:30 pm EST and will be televised by ABC.
QB Ryan Mallett, Arkansas : Though I'm not nearly as high on Mallett as some, I certainly do recognize that he has a first round arm. His poise and feet will be tested Saturday night against a physical and aggressive Mississippi State team playing at home. I don't care what Mallett's statistics are at the end of the game. Bobby Petrino's offense leads to big numbers. Remember Brian Brohm and Stefan LeFors under Petrino at Louisville? I want to see how Mallett's accuracy is affected if the Bulldogs are able get him moving throughout the pocket. This has been a concern of mine throughout Mallett's career and it was the reason why the SEC star collapsed late against Alabama. If Mallett has improved in this area, it could lead to a significant jump up draft boards -- especially with the continued struggles of the senior quarterbacks. This game begins at 7:00 pm EST and will be televised by ESPN.

WHILST Pen, in his own county, was thus carrying on his selfish plans and parliamentary schemes, news came to him that Lady Rockminster had arrived at Baymouth, and had brought with her our friend Laura. At the announcement that Laura his sister was near him, Pen felt rather guilty. His wish was to stand higher in her esteem, perhaps, than in that of any other person in the world. She was his mother's legacy to him. He was to be her patron and protector in some sort. How would she brave the news which he had to tell her: and how should he explain the plans which he was meditating? He felt as if neither he nor Blanche could bear Laura's dazzling glance of calm scrutiny, and as if he would not dare to disclose his worldly hopes and ambitions to that spotless judge. At her arrival at Baymouth, he wrote a letter thither which contained a great number of fine phrases and protests of affection, and a great deal of easy satire and raillery; in the midst of all which Mr. Pen could not help feeling that he was in a panic, and that he was acting like a rogue and hypocrite.
How was it that a simple country girl should be the object of fear and trembling to such an accomplished gentleman as Mr. Pen? His worldly tactics and diplomacy, his satire and knowledge of the world, could not bear the test of her purity, he felt somehow. And he had to own to himself that his affairs were in such a position, that he could not tell the truth to that honest soul. As he rode from Clavering to Baymouth, he felt as guilty as a schoolboy who doesn't know his lesson, and is about to face the awful master. For is not Truth the master always, and does she not have the power and hold the book?
Under the charge of her kind, though somewhat wayward and absolute patroness, Lady Rockminster, Laura had seen somewhat of the world in the last year, had gathered some accomplishments, and profited by the lessons of society. Many a girl who had been accustomed to that too great tenderness in which Laura's early life had been passed, would have been unfitted for the changed existence which she had now had to lead. Helen worshipped her two children, and thought, as home-bred women will, that all the world was made for them, or to be considered after them. She tended Laura with a watchfulness of affection which never left her. If she had a headache, the widow was as alarmed as if there had never been an aching head before in the world. She slept and woke, read and moved under her mother's fond superintendence, which was now withdrawn from her, along with the tender creature whose anxious heart would beat no more. And painful moments of grief and depression no doubt Laura had, when she stood in the great careless world alone. Nobody heeded her griefs or her solitude. She was not quite the equal, in social rank, of the lady whose companion she was, or of the friends and relatives of the imperious but kind old dowager. Some very likely bore her no good-will -- some, perhaps, slighted her: it might have been that servants were occasionally rude; their mistress certainly was often. Laura not seldom found herself in family meetings, the confidence and familiarity of which she felt were interrupted by her intrusion; and her sensitiveness of course was wounded at the idea that she should give or feel this annoyance. How many governesses are there in the world, thought cheerful Laura, -- how many ladies whose necessities make them slaves and companions by profession! What bad tempers and coarse unkindness have not these to encounter! How infinitely better my lot is with these really kind and affectionate people than that of thousands of unprotected girls! It was with this cordial spirit that our young lady adapted herself to her new position; and went in advance of her fortune with a trustful smile.

Hi all,
I just purchased my first road bike since 1986, with the goal of completing the Pan/Mass challenge here in Mass next summer. I have a Bianchi Brava.
However, since I last rode in 86, a couple of things have changed and I have questions. I tried the search, but I can't find this topic (although I'm probably just not using the right words). Could someone please explain how to shift properly on these new bikes? My Brava has gray switches on each handlebar, but my shifting is not smooth. I am afraid I'm not doing it correctly and I don't want to hurt my bike!
Also, are toeclips still around, or do I have to go to the shoes that fit directly to the pedals to get the same effect? I currently just have pedals w/o toeclips.
Thanks in advance!

With the rise of socialist Babylon in the White House, it seems time for laws to protect Kentucky,
1. A law making it illegal to occupy any part of Kentucky by unconstitutional U.N. actions or federal actions.
2. A law ordering all Kentucky police officers to arrest any person, federal officer or U.N. command action troops who try to enforce unconstitutional laws to confiscate property or people within the boundaries of the state of Kentucky.
In the Feb. 6 edition of The Lebanon Enterprise, there was a mistake in the story about David Ray Clarkson Jr.'s struggle with mental illness. The story stated that in Kentucky if you have a Medicaid card it will pay for mental health treatment or substance abuse treatment, but not both. Actually, Medicaid pays for mental health treatment, but not substance abuse treatment.
For the first time in 11 years, Lynn Farris and Mike Thacker are bringing tuna back. (Not to be confused with bringing sexy back.)
They are older.
They are wiser (allegedly).
And one of them has lost practically all of his hair.
But, they've still got "it" on stage.
I spent an hour with them Saturday and laughed with them (and at them) the entire time.
So, what made them decide to bring the play "Greater Tuna" back to the stage?
In a 30-day "short session" like this year, it's difficult for both chambers to fully consider the hundreds of bills that have been filed. However, over the last two weeks, the Senate has taken early action on major legislation, giving the House more time to study those bills.
This week the Senate passed important bills addressing school safety, the state's General Fund debt, economic development and healthcare.
It was with dismay, I took in the full reality of the headline's forboding – "Maker's Mark cutting alcohol volume in its bourbon."
My first reaction was one of disbelief, hoping against hope this was a joke, a prank, an effort by some online troll to foment rebellion and insurgency inside the Commonwealth.
Well, turns out, this was not the case – this was a reality, a reality I could hardly believe. Apparently, dropping from 90-proof to 84-proof was going to increase the marketable product by six percent.

Charles Gatlin, a vet and former infantry captain in the army, is currently a grad student at the University of Montana while battling the VA to receive proper treatment and compensation for his traumatic brain injury. / TRIBUNE PHOTO/ABBY REDFERN
Ariana Del Negro, Charles Gatlin's wife, has worked with him to fight the VA on Gatlin's TBI case. Del Negro says the amount of paperwork and time this has taken has been overwhelming. / TRIBUNE PHOTO/ABBY REDFERN
A University of Montana graduate student and his wife are taking on the Veterans Administration, both to right a perceived injustice and to make the system work better for other former soldiers.
Their mission is to force the VA to diagnose, treat and properly compensate vets for traumatic brain injuries.
TBIs are one of the signature wounds for soldiers returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan, but the VA has diagnosed far fewer of them in Afghan/Iraqi former soldiers than the Department of Defense has diagnosed among active-duty soldiers.
Charles Gatlin, a 38-year-old Ranger-qualified former infantry captain and Purple Heart recipient now attending the University of Montana in Missoula, is one of those who fell through the cracks. After extensive testing, the Army sent him into civilian life with a 70 percent disability because of TBI. After a brief screening exam at Fort Harrison in Helena, the VA dropped his TBI disability rating to 10 percent.
Gatlin is appealing that ruling and has a hearing Wednesday in Washington, D.C. The director at Fort Harrison has defended Gatlins diagnosis and said the psychologist who examined him observed the proper procedures.
But Gatlin challenged the competence of that psychologist, and the Montana Board of Psychologist wrote the psychologist and concluded that it found reasonable cause to believe a violation of the Montana statute(s) and/or administrative rule(s) which govern your license has occurred. Although a written reprimand is pending, the psychologist remains on the job screening patients at Fort Harrison.
Finally, Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Colo., chairman of the House Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Oversights and Investigations, has requested that the VAs Inspector General perform a thorough investigation of Gatlins case and if indicated by your findings, conduct an in-depth audit of TBI determinations. Inspector General George J. Opfer has yet to respond to the congressmans letter, according to Coffmans office.
Gatlin's military career
An Alabama native, Gatlin enlisted in the Army in 1998 and attended jump school at Fort Benning, Ga. He went from there to the 3rd U.S. Infantry known as the Army Old Guard, the ceremonial drill unit dating back to 1784 that performs military funerals in Washington, D.C., and escorts the president.
As part of that assignment, he was attached to the Pentagon and was in the building when the plane hit on 9/11.
After four years with the Old Guard, he received Ranger training and other educational courses and was selected for a Green to Gold scholarship at the University of Montana that allowed him to finish a bachelors degree in history in 2003. Then he was assigned to the 25th Infantry Division as a second lieutenant in 2005 and was deployed to Iraq the following year.
Gatlin commanded a scout/sniper platoon that cleared routes, gathered intelligence, assessed and alleviated threats, cordoned off suspicious buildings and served as a battalion-level liaison with Kurdish nationals.
We were getting ready to conduct a raid, he remembers. We had gathered some intel that a compound near town could be producing VBIEDs (vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices). We went out there and, BAM, we got hit.
Gatlins wife, Ariana Del Negro, testified before the Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs that her husband was standing less than 20 yards away from a very large VBIED on Sept. 28, 2006, when it was detonated, causing Gatlin to suffer a closed-head TBI.
He was exposed to three concussive forces: first, the explosion; then the engine block from the vehicle, which struck him in the back of the head as he was thrown into the air; and finally when he hit his head again after falling to the ground on his back, where he remained unconscious for at least 10 minutes, she testified.
Army treatment
Gatlin was medevaced to Balad Medical Hospital in serious condition and remained in the intensive care unit for three days. Then he insisted on returning to his unit in Kirkuk.
During the four weeks my husband spent back at Kirkuk, he had to depend on his medic and roommate, Cpl. Joshua Harmon, Del Negro told the Senate committee. Cpl. Harmon tended to him, helped him to dress, assisted him when moving from room to room, and checked his pupils each night. Harmon died of combat wounds shortly thereafter.
After spending approximately four weeks in Kirkuk without resolution of his symptoms, my husband was returned back to his home base in Hawaii, Del Negro said. He could barely keep his balance, let alone figure out where he was supposed to go and whom he was supposed to see for his medical care. Unfortunately, the system he reported to, Tripler Army Medical Center, did not know either.
Gatlin notes that the medical system wasnt prepared yet for TBIs, and Tripler didnt have a head injury unit.
When he first returned home from Iraq, my husband complained of debilitating headaches, chronic vertigo, memory lapses, anxiety and hearing loss, Del Negro testified. He leaned to the left, developed hand and facial tics and could not maintain eye contact when speaking. Two weeks later, as some symptoms worsened, new symptoms emerged. He developed a significant stutter, had difficulty recalling words and frequently dropped objects.
Unable to drive, this fiercely independent man lost his autonomy and was forced to depend upon others for his basic needs, she said. It was also at this time that he began to withdraw socially, avoiding public and busy areas. His time was mostly spent sitting, staring blankly. Watching my husband, an exceptionally accomplished and strong man, struggle with such simple tasks was very difficult.
After 14 frustrating weeks, Del Negro finally managed to get the doctors to transfer her husband to Balboa Naval Medical Center in San Diego, where she says Gatlin received excellent care. He received intensive rehabilitation seven hours a day and four days a week and learned a lot about brain injuries. He also underwent extensive neuropsychological testing.
In 2009, he underwent a similar battery of tests at Fort Benning in which he was found to be suffering from a number of lasting effects from his injury. Even three years later, he still had chronic headaches, problems with memory and concentration, difficulty using his hands and problems with depth perception.
The neuropsychologist at Fort Benning concluded Gatlins results are consistent with previous assessments in 2006 and 2007 and thus suggest stability of dysfunction in executive performance, motor functions, processing speed and attention. On the basis of those test findings, the Armys physical evaluation rated Gatlins TBI as a 70 percent disability and recommended him for permanent disability retirement.
Civilian life
After leaving the Army, the couple went back to Alabama for awhile, then returned to Missoula where Gatlin enrolled in graduate school for masters degrees in public administration and political science. Del Negro, a native of Washington, D.C., is a freelance medical writer.
Gatlin registered with the VA at Fort Harrison and his medical records were received by the VA hospital Jan. 18, 2012, but were apparently ignored. Gatlin was invited down to Fort Harrison for further evaluation.
It was a very quick exam, under an hour, some Q&A (question-and-answer), nothing like the battery of tests I was given by the Army, Gatlin remembers. It did incorporate elements of some of the other neurological testing, but it was more about recognition. I had to look at pictures, compare shapes.
Then they asked me to do a memory drawing of a picture with 45 degree angles and 90 degree angles, he says. You had to look at it for 30 or 45 seconds, then draw it from memory. But it was a shape Id seen a thousand times in previous tests, and I probably really could have drawn it from memory without seeing it.
Del Negro was worried by the brief exam but assumed that the VA would rely on the more extensive neuropsychological testing done by the Army. However, when the VA disability report came back, Gatlin received a 10 percent disability for TBI. However, the VA assigned some of his difficulties to post-traumatic stress disorder and gave him a 30 percent disability rating for that.
PTSD and TBI frequently share a common cause and similar symptoms. The difference is that a TBI represents physical injury to the brain, while PTSD is the brains reaction to an abnormal situation, such as combat. But they are frequently confused, according to John Medina, developmental molecular biologist and author of the best-selling book, Brain Rules.
It is easy to confuse PTSD and TBI, especially when thinking about combat-induced trauma, and many journalists conflate them. But they are different conceptually, and probably, neurologically as well, Medina said in a recent interview.
Encounters with IEDs (improvised explosive devices) are instructive, he added. As a concussive blast wave passes through the brain, the subsequent fluidic turbulence can cause structural damage associated with classic TBIs (torn tissue, bleeding, persistent dizziness, mood changes, sensory problems). But IEDs are almost always associated with horrific experiences, too: agonized screaming, disembodied limbs/bowels and smells a person has probably never previously encountered.
All by itself this can lead to anxieties and depressions, uncontrollable, invasive thoughts, nightmares and flashbacks that last for years. This isnt TBI. This is PTSD. So, even though a single traumatic event has occurred (the explosion), it has triggered two differentiated responses. Another great example one of thousands that the brain was never designed to go to war.
In addition to the lower score, Del Negro sees a concerted campaign by the VA to shift the cause of many problems from TBI to PTSD. Its a convenient and economically attractive excuse, she says. If its PTSD, its psychological and its your problem, but if its TBI, its an organic issue that requires medical treatment. Theres a profound overlap between the two injuries, but in my husbands case, theres so much medical evidence of cognitive impairment that its wrong to ignore it.
Equally important to Gatlin and his wife is to stand up for the rights of all veterans and to prevent the VA from intentionally lowering the disability rating for others.
Im not an 18-year-old private, Gatlin says. Ive got resources that I can bring to bear. But Im really worried about those guys that dont have the benefit of an education or other resources. Ive done my part. Id like just to go back to school and enjoy it, but thats not happening. Ive become an advocate because I want to make the system work not only for myself, but for others.
After two years of trying to rectify the situation within the VA at Fort Harrison, Gatlin and his wife filed the appeal that set the stage for Wednesdays appearance before the Board of Veterans Appeals.
Appealing VA's rule
Gatlins appeal essentially argues two main points: that the VAs test wasnt sufficiently capable of evaluating the damage to the brain of a high-functioning individual such as Gatlin, and that the psychologist who examined him wasnt qualified or trained well enough to administer the VAs tests and interpret the results.
Gatlin was administered the RBANS (Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status) test at Fort Harrison. But its just a screening tool, not a diagnostic test, Del Negro objects. Its just used to raise red flags that show whether a patient needs fuller evaluation.
RBANS tests immediate memory by asking a subject to remember 10 unrelated words or a list of 12 items in a story, visuospatial/construction by asking him to copy a geometrical figure or identify patterns in lines, language by naming pictures or providing examples of classes of objects, attention by repeating varying numbers of digits in a string, and delayed memory by recalling the unrelated words and story elements presented earlier.
But those werent much of a challenge to Gatlin, whod been working to overcome those problems for the past six years.
One of my concerns is that hes so high functioning, Del Negro says. When we were in San Diego, one of the neuropsychologists told me that their tests might not be able to detect the extent of his injuries because he is so high-functioning. He was taught compensatory strategies to overcome his limitations during the rehab, plus hes quite creative himself. Now hes learned how to navigate around a problem to find a solution.
Those strengths allowed him to continue functioning academically despite his injuries. And Del Negro said he was profoundly insulted when she was told that her husband couldnt be cognitively disabled because hes a graduate student at the University of Montana.
They say that because hes able to do this, he cant be impaired, Del Negro says. But instead he should be recognized for his diligence and determination and tenacity and strength for overcoming those problems.
Gatlins second major challenge to the disability determination is that VA examiners werent adequately qualified or trained to make that determination.
For example, the VA denied service connection for his fine motor skill deficit because of TBI. In his notice of disagreement filed last July 31, Gatlin wrote: The board relied on the opinion of an examiner, a nurse practitioner, who was neither licensed nor trained in the required specialty to ascertain a proper diagnosis. This was reflected by her medical entry, stating that she could not explain the reasoning for my deficits. Simply put, she could not explain the reasoning because she lacked the required expertise to lend a credible and accurate medical opinion.
Of note, three individual and comprehensive batteries of neuropsychological testing had been previously conducted consistently showing that my motor/dexterity/speed on the grooved pegboard test was impaired below the first percentile deficits identified by licensed specialists as a specific consequence of my TBI, Gatlin said. What should have been abundantly clear to both the examiner at Fort Harrison and the board was that there had been absolutely no improvement in such deficits, and thus reconfirmed the previous diagnoses opined by the expert clinicians.
Gatlin also challenged the credentials of the psychologist who examined him at Fort Harrison, arguing that he is a clinical psychologist, not trained in neuropsychology. Robert Bateen, Ph.D., the examiner at Fort Harrison assigned to determine the veterans degree of disability for residuals of TBI, was not professionally qualified to conduct or interpret the necessary neuropsychological tests required to determine the presence or absence of objective evidence of testing, he wrote in his appeal to the Board of Veterans Appeals.
But Fort Harrisons director, Christine Gregory, disagrees. All VA Montana Compensation and Pension (C&P) examiners are state licensed and Compensation and Pension Examination Program (CPEP) certified within their areas of responsibility per VHA Directive 1603, she wrote Rep. Steve Daines, R-Mont., last August. Examiners who perform exams for TBI residual have completed CPEP Traumatic Brain Injury training.
According to Dr. David Cifu, national director of the VAs Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Services, a four-question screening exam was devised to determine the existence of a traumatic brain injury, not the RBANS test. Im really not a fan of the RBANS test, he said. It just has a lot of flaws to it that dont allow us to screen for TBI.
Instead, Cifu said the VA relies on the VA TBI Screening Tool, a test thats taken from a TBI expert consensus approach that has been around since 1993 and is, he said, a better tool than the RBANS to screen rapidly for TBI. It asks whether a vet has experienced a blast event, whether he suffered a loss or alteration of consciousness, whether he experienced symptoms after the blast, and whether those systems persist. If the answer to those questions is yes, Cifu said, that will get them into a higher level evaluation, the Comprehensive TBI Evaluation (CTBIE).
Cifu said the VA has screened 760,250 OEF/OIF vets through July 31, for possible TBI and found 143,029 who screened positive and agreed to further testing. But there have only been 61,769 confirmed TBI diagnoses from the CTBIE.
A positive screen will get a vet into one of 108 TBI-Polytrauma specialty centers, which currently have an average wait time of only 18 days, Cifu said. A comprehensive evaluation takes between two hours and six hours, depending on the extent of the symptoms. Theres no single test to determine brain injury, so we use a multidimensional test. And we have to rely on our experts to determine the diagnoses and management paradigms using the art of interpretation, rather than just hearing the symptoms.
Cifu said each of these TBI specialty centers has, at a minimum, a seven-member team: a physician trained in in brain injury, a psychologist, a speech and language therapist, an occupational therapist, a physical therapist, a rehab specialty nurse and a social worker to provide support and access to other services.
Within these 108 teams, there are 23 TBI specialty centers that have multiple teams and five centers that are polytrauma centers of excellence with full inpatient, outpatient and telehealth teams, and dedicated neuroscientists who do research work, according to Cifu.
Furthermore, the CTBIE tests can be used on individuals functioning on all levels and without knowing how well an individual functions before his or her injury. We know what the norms are, Cifu explained. These tests have been normalized on thousands of people without brain injury and used on millions of people with brain injury, so we can recognize patterns of normality and abnormality.
All vets who have suffered an alteration of consciousness in combat remain in a registry so that they can be identified if they experience later problems, Cifu said, but only those who have experienced symptoms lasting three months or longer are offered treatment if they wish it. Without symptoms, he said, theres no need for treatment, just education, reassurance and primary care management. The average vet suffering brain injury has between 17 and 21 symptoms.
But the number of vets diagnosed by the VA with TBI is far fewer than the number of active-duty soldiers diagnosed by the Department of Defense.
VAs most recent statistics show that about 899,750 Iraqi/Afghan vets, 56 percent of the 1.6 million returning soldiers, have applied for health care, with more than half of that number seeking mental health care, a number thats sure to grow larger as those who returned home recently begin acknowledging cases of delayed-onset PTSD.
PTSD was the most common mental health complaint, with nearly 262,000 vets seeking help which is about 29 percent of the vets in the VA system. By comparison, there are fewer than 62,000 confirmed TBI diagnoses by the VA.
However according to the Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center, 266,810 soldiers were diagnosed with TBI from 2000-12. And even the DOD figures fall short of what the Rand Report had predicted five years ago.
In 2008, the Rand Corp. did an independent survey of 1,965 service members and veterans. With the prevalence of roadside bombs (improvised explosive devices, or IEDs), it estimated that 19 percent of the 1.6 million soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan about 320,000 soldiers would come home with possible TBIs.
State licensing board
Gatlin took the same issues, inadequate testing and unqualified personnel to administer them, before the Montana Board of Psychologists, the licensing department of the Montana Department of Labor and Industry.
In a letter addressed to Bateen and his attorney, Thomas Kennedy of the VAs regional office in Denver, the state board said: having fully considered the matter before it, the panel found reasonable cause to believe a violation of Montana statute(s) and/or administrative rule(s), which govern your license, has occurred. The attorney for the Department of Labor and Industry will be drafting a Notice of Proposed Board Action and Opportunity for Hearing (notice) and sending it to your address of record via certified mail. Please note that failure to pick up certified mail from the board is considered unprofessional conduct and could subject your license to further disciplinary action.
At press time, the wording of the proposed reprimand still was being finalized.
But Del Negro had mixed feelings about the outcome. The issue is really that the VAs standard of training is not up to the accepted standard of care. VA put this man in this position by telling him to do it anyway. Hes actually an unfortunate scapegoat in all this because his licensed will be blemished due to the position the VA put him in.
Through a VA spokesperson, Bateen and Kennedy declined to comment.
VA's inspector general
Gatlin also sought assistance from Coffman, the Republican from Colorado. A press aide said Coffman, chairman of the House oversight and investigations subcommittee, received a number of complaints similar to Gatlins.
The Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs has received complaints that the Department of Veterans Affairs is using faulty diagnostic tests for traumatic brain injury (TBI) determinations that minimize the incidence and degree of disability and negatively impact the treatment of veterans suffering from TBI, Coffman wrote the VAs inspector general. Shortchanging disability benefits and care for veterans with TBI would be cruel and unfair and would dishonor the nations commitment to service members and their families.
While that request is still pending, the Inspector Generals office only recently released a series of reports evaluating the performance of the VAs regional offices.
In a report dated last Aug. 28, for example, the IGs office examined the Albuquerque, N.M., regional office. VARO staff incorrectly processed 10 of 28 traumatic brain injury claims, it found. The errors occurred primarily because staff misinterpreted VBA policy for rating a traumatic brain injury with a coexisting mental condition and used insufficient VA medical examination reports to evaluate traumatic brain injury claims.
In Houston, Staff misinterpreted VBA policy and inaccurately processed 15 of 30 traumatic brain injury claims, it said.
Same thing in Muskogee, Okla. Staff misinterpreted VBA policy and inaccurately processed 13 of 30 traumatic brain injury claims, the IGs office found.
In Waco, Texas, it found that errors in processing 9 of 30 traumatic brain injury claims occurred primarily due to ineffective training and inexperienced staff rating these complex cases.
However, Denver the regional office for Fort Harrison misdiagnosed 4 of 30 TBI claims. Numbers were similarly good for Newark, N.J., Boise, Idaho, and Jackson, Miss.
Life goes on
Fighting the VAs TBI disability rating has taken its toll on Gatlins studies at UM, forcing him to work particularly hard to hold his own in graduate school.
I have a hard time driving at night, and I still get headaches, he says. I have to reread things that I could have breezed through back in the day. I have to take notes because Im always forgetting something, and then I have to review that stuff. Typing is (tough) because my left hand doesnt work so well. I still get vertigo, fatigue and mental fatigue and the anger comes with it.
Gatlin refuses to be disheartened, however. The things I could take for granted, reading a book and remembering every chapter, those all have changed, he says. Its sort of disheartening, but Im alive Im not sure exactly how and I have to take a positive view.
But it also makes him want to be an advocate for vets who have it worse than he does.
We have both participated as consumer reviewers on peer panels for the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program thats held three or four times per year, says Del Negro. Our role as consumer reviewers is to bring a sense of realism to the proposed research and make sure that the promises proposed could actually make a difference for those affected by the specific conditions in question. Mostly, the panels have been about TBI and psychological health, but weve also done some on migraines/headaches, biotechnology, blood wound, and infection, among others.
In addition, Gatlin is also a member of the External Advisory Board for the Mission Connect Consortium based in Texas.
Essentially, he sits on a committee with other scientists and physicians and oversees the progress of a large funded research project to ensure that benchmarks are being met, etc. In similar fashion to his responsibilities to the CDMRP panels, he is there to represent the patients voice.
We also sit on the advisory board for the Montana Brain Injury Center, Del Negro adds. Our role with the center is still evolving, but we look forward to collaborating with key members in the community to better access care and services to patients with brain injury, particularly veterans living in the state.
Protecting other vets is a driving force for this couple.
Unfortunately, its not just us, says Del Negro. Its the other veterans and their families who are affected too. My husband and I are in a unique position where we can choose to actively defend ourselves and seek whats right. But what about the other families who may not know that theyre being wronged, who may not know what questions to ask, or who may not have the time, energies or resources to pursue rectification?
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Eric Newhouse retired from the Great Falls Tribune in 2010. He is the author of Faces of Combat: PTSD & TBI and writes a blog for Psychology Today on vets issues at http://www.psychology

I have said it a million times: the paper we use and its paper developer is something you have to target with everything else that you do. All that you do when you pick your film, pick your film developer, expose the film, film developing time, agitation, temperature - everything, all of it will have to fit on the paper. If you switch papers in the middle of everything you are introducing yet another variable, and when we learn (or re-learn as in this case) the less variables we have the better it is. It is, after all, about learning a technique.
I have used matte paper in my prints for a decade now, almost exclusively, and I have used several hundred sheets of the type of paper Jenni is currently using. It isn't bad paper at all. It is Foma VC paper as we know, and that's a quality product. It is possible to achieve deep, rich, velvet blacks with this paper, but it takes a bit of practice, some pain, some hard work, analysis of technique and improvements to make it happen.

On Apr 2, Zacks Investment Research downgraded Fred's
Inc. ( FRED ) to a Zacks Rank
#5 (Strong Sell). A disappointing fourth quarter fiscal 2012 and a
weak view for the upcoming quarter are the reasons for
Why the Downgrade?
On Mar 28, Fred's posted fourth-quarter fiscal 2012 (ended Feb
2013) earnings of 18 cents per share, missing the Zacks Consensus
Estimate by a penny and the guidance range of 31 cents to 36 cents
per share. Earnings declined 30.7% from the prior-year quarter due
to the ongoing tough retail environment, challenging results in
general merchandise departments and higher operating expenses.
Sales also missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $534.0 million
but increased 7% year over year to $533.4 million. However,
excluding the extra week in the current quarter, comparable store
sales declined 2.8% compared to an increase of 0.1% in the same
quarter last year, while comparable store customer traffic
decreased 2.8% from last year.
The company's gross margin expanded 20 basis points to 27.9% in
the quarter driven by higher pharmacy department margins. However,
decreased margins in the general merchandise department due to a
sales mix shift significantly impacted the quarter. Operating
margin shrank 70 basis points to 2.0% due to higher selling,
general and administrative, store occupancy costs and insurance
Management expects tough retail conditions to continue across
the markets in fiscal 2013. The company anticipates poor weather in
March, which will impact comparable store sales in the first
quarter. The company thus expects comparable store sales to decline
in the range of 1% to 3%, compared with a decrease of 0.3% in the
first quarter of fiscal 2011. Fred's also expects earnings for the
first quarter in the range of 26 to 30 cents compared with 28 cents
reported last year.
This general merchandise retailer has witnessed sharp downward
estimate revisions after announcing its fourth-quarter fiscal 2012
results. Most of the estimates declined for the first quarter over
the past 30 days and the Zacks Consensus Estimate decreased 12.9%
to 27 cents per share. For fiscal 2013, all the estimates were
revised downward over the same time frame, sinking the Zacks
Consensus Estimate by 17.8% to 83 cents per share.
Other Stocks to Consider
Not all stocks are performing as poorly as Fred's. Other
retailers with favorable Zacks Rank include Sears Holding
Corp ( SHLD ), Macy's
Inc ( M ) and
Costco Whole Corp ( COST ). While Sears
and Macy's hold a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), Costco carries a
Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Utilizing Argonne's Advanced Photon Source, a team of scientists from the University of Michigan and Purdue University has discovered a key aspect both to how Dengue fever and West Nile fever replicate in the cells of their host and how they manipulate the immune system as they spread.
Computing resources at Argonne have helped researchers better grasp how proteins misfold to create the tissue-damaging structures that lead to type 2 diabetes.
Doctors have a new way of thinking about how to treat heart and skeletal muscle diseases. Body builders have a new way of thinking about how they maximize their power. Both owe their new insight to high-energy X-rays, a moth and cloud computing.
A team of scientists has unveiled a new technique for vaccine design that could be particularly useful against HIV and other fast-mutating viruses. This technique was tested with the help of high-energy X-rays at Argonne National Laboratory.

Re: Insurrection as an episode...
1) You know TV tropes had a debate about whether it was right to relocate the Ba'ku or not and someone mentioned something I found interesting, which is that there was nothing in the film to indicate that the Ba'ku were theses selfish bastards like some fans seem to think.
2) I find it disturbing that some fans not only think that every planet in a certain area belongs to the federation regardless of if the people living their have joined it or not or are not living in a federation colony and that they seem to think this doesn't count as imperialism in any way and that it is in fact a good thing.

Honestly I get the impression that the Ba'ku probably wouldn't have cared as long as you weren't building the medical facility in the valley they lived in and its not like there weren't other nice placed to put it.

Cristobal carves his way to new world record Peruvian surf star Cristobal de Col recently pushed through fatigue, mental pressure and a jellyfish plague to set a brand new world record by performing 34 carved turns on the longest wave in the world at the Red Bull Chicama Challenge. CHICAMA (Peru) - Waves that run for over two minutes are a common sight in Chicama, a surfer's paradise in the north of Peru known as the longest left-hand wave in the world. So there was no better place for the Red Bull Chicama Challenge, in which ISA World Surfing Games Junior Champion Cristobal de Col, his team and family spent two full days attempting to set a brand new world record for the most manoeuvres performed on a single wave.

I'm guessing... (and this is just a guess!)
Helmets give the wearer a sense of security (whether that sense is false or not I'll leave to others) and for some it may have the effect of causing the rider to be *less* aware of his/her surroundings. This may result in more accidents with helmet wearers, I suppose.
I'm not sure I agree with that, even though I don't wear helmets for cycling. Just trying to figure out why a set of stats might generate such a result.
