Lacrosse Stick Specification Changes
Apr 27th
Effective January 1, 2010, the NCAA rules for men's lacrosse will include a modified stick head dimension specification, which will require a minimum width dimension of 3″ for the throat of the lacrosse stick head.
In recent years, manufacturers have evolved men's lacrosse stick head designs within the rules to become narrower. This design evolution has made it more difficult to dislodge the ball and changed the nature of the college game. According to statements released by the NCAA, this specification change will return the stick head to a more traditional shape, which will result in greater balance between offense and More >

Preacher Douglas McGill turns the other cheek, dammit
Dontcha hate it when you take a good, hard slug at somebody, and instead of slugging you back, they get up and say, "Thanks, I needed that"?
Me, too.
Yesterday I lit into Douglas McGill, purveyor of the media blog, The McGill Report: Media for Global Citizens. A former reporter and bureau chief for The New York Times and Bloomberg News, he now spends his time, like a converted drunkard, preaching ethics to the poor hacks still swilling the intoxicating elixer of working journalism..
Imagine my chagrin when I received this email:
Hi Chauncey,
Thanks for sending the link. I find myself strangely sympathetic to every one of your criticisms. Perhaps there's a downside to my present ethical explorations, in terms of reasonable kickback from colleagues in the profession, that is unavoidable?
I don't know.
But as penance, or balance, I try to do straight reporting as much as I can -- e.g., the stuff in the left-hand column of my web page. Because I do believe, and I say it pretty often on my blog too, that we really need good journalism -- good truth-telling -- in society. And if we don't get it, we're sunk. Journalism's troubles these days is what worries me the most.
And I do think that our failure in journalism to really belly-up to big ethical questions, especially on language and morality, is one reason the profession is having problems.
I'm grateful for the thoughtful points in your column, thanks.
All best,
To which I replied:
Oh, pooh. I had hopes we might kick off a thrilling feud that could run for months.
That said, I do appreciate your professional, collegial response. I hope it's obvious from my blog post that I'm not without sympathy for your overall thesis.
If you'd like to continue this where others can listen in and participate, I'd be pleased if you made this email a comment on my blog. I'll return the favor, if you find occasion to mention it on yours. I believe conversation is the best way to reach consensus.
McGill's response:
Sorry about that, Chauncey, I know fights are always more thrilling.
Anyway, you bet, let's carry on though. I do have a few thoughts to share in return. Even a few sharp ones, so if we can't muster a full-fledged brawl we'll at least up the temperature a little bit ...
I'm traveling today but will post a comment to your blog tomorrow and a retort-to-your-retort a while after that ...
Sigh. This is turning into a slappy fight, instead of the pistols-at-dawn duel I'd envisioned. Are you allowed to disagree on the Internet with such decorum and mutual respect? I'm relatively new to this blogging business, but I'd come under the impression flamethrowers are usually involved.
Nonetheless, the issues under consideration are significant and worth parsing out, even if McGill is forcing the Marquis of Queensbury rules. If you'd like to participate, check out McGill's original post here..
And you can find my retort here.
Excuse me now. I have to go loosen up with some jumping jacks.

Panesar prepared for Test recall
Follow England's series with Pakistan on ecb.co.uk - click here for all the latest news, exclusive interviews, video highlights and match reports
Monty Panesar is ready to finally play his 40th Test if England decide they require his services against Pakistan.
Panesar, who took the plaudits with figures of 5-57 against a Pakistan Cricket Board XI in England's final warm-up match before the first of three Tests starting on Tuesday, has not featured at the highest level since mid-summer 2009.
It was then that his 39th appearance made the headlines not for an outstanding bowling performance but last-ditch defiance as a tailender to salvage a draw in Cardiff at the start of England's 2-1 Ashes series triumph.
Since then, England have most often relied on Panesar's former Northamptonshire team-mate Graeme Swann as the sole spinner in a four-man attack.
But the International Cricket Council's number-one ranked Test team may sense that formula needs revision to help them conquer an alien frontier, against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates.
Panesar's performance today - in the PCB XI's 200 for nine declared - served notice of his well-being, and afterwards he said: "I've given myself an opportunity to get used to the conditions, and given myself a good chance to be ready.
"So if they want to play two spinners, I'm ready to play."
Panesar cites his move from Northants to Sussex two years ago, and his experience as an overseas player in South Africa and Australia, as vital staging posts in his continued development and perhaps his rehabilitation as a Test bowler.
"I'm hungry to play Test cricket - and if or when the opportunity presents itself I've got to be ready," he said.
"I want to be part of this successful England team. I've been bowling well at Sussex and also had the responsibility of being an overseas player at Randwick Petersham in Sydney and also Highveld Lions.
"That extra responsibility develops you as a person and also helps your game as well."
Panesar helped England to a 69-run first-innings lead on the second day of three at the ICC Global Cricket Academy ground in Dubai, before Andrew Strauss and Jonathan Trott bolstered the advantage by another 82 without loss at stumps.
The slow left-armer added: "My belief is a lot stronger now. I think going overseas, to Sydney, helps with your self-belief. My confidence has grown, and that definitely helps your bowling.
"I've always stayed hungry to play Test cricket and always worked hard. That's why I moved to Sussex, to better my game and take on a major responsibility - leading the bowling attack."
The 29-year-old, who was part of England's winning squad in last winter's Ashes but played only in the tour match against Australia A in Hobart, sees his near 30-month absence from Test cricket as an important learning curve rather than a fallow period.
"It's been a good period for me, in that I had to come out of my comfort zone," he said.
"Sometimes you've got to take a couple of steps back to go forward. I just said to myself: `I've got to get in there, work hard and get my hands dirty'."
As for his re-acquaintance with Swann as a spin partner, that is a prospect he relishes.
"It's really exciting to have two spinners bowling in tandem, something Swanny and I did at Northants - and we're very comfortable bowling with each other and helping each other out," he added.

Happy Memorial Day
Today is a day to honor those who have served our County in the Armed Forces. For most of us, it is a day off. Ironically, for those now serving, it is yet another day of defending our Country, being in harm's way, and trying to come home alive.
There aren't enough words to properly thank those who have worn a U.S. Military uniform. They literally put their lives on the line for us. Next time you see someone in uniform, go ahead and thank them for their service. You'll likely get the most grateful smile and acknowledgment you could ever imagine in return.
On this day, let us pause for a moment and send up a prayer for those in our Military. They deserve our deepest gratitude for their incredible sacrifice.
Happy Memorial Day.

15g question
Hey Guys, its been a while :)
so i have this 15 gallon, has a pair of kribs in it. They breed like crazy. its really fun.
bad thing is this: its gross i cannot keep it clean looking.
i have a HOB which might be too small, it has a hood with 2 of the screw in bulbs that have coils on the inside.
this tank is in my living room, with a very nice stand i built for it, but i keep getting this really gross almost grey colored algea on everything, the plants, the decorations. (not on the sand though)
it gets no direct sunlight.
what im looking for help with is some better lighting solutions and a better filter suggestion.
i *THINK* a sponge filter would work better? what do you think?
Lighting solutions: right now it has a hood with 2 of the screw in bults that have the curly tubes (this tank/set up was given to me) i have never had a tnak this small so im a little lost on what hardware would work best.
LED strip? just different bulbs?
im at work right now so i dont have specifics or anything but this is bugging me so i thought i would ask :)
the tank does get dirty quicly. i am not sure if it is the algea or detrious. the Algea is like a grey/green very...umm dusty??? looking, if that makes sense.
if you touch/move something in the tank i do get alot of it floating around.
im definatly replacing the filter. either a sponge or something a step up from what i am using. i think its one of those tetra whipers for a 10g (since i only have two fish in there i figured it would work)
the plants are live. one is a small sword and the other is a type of Val i think.
if i do keep the CFLs how often should i replace them? maybe the is the issue?
i dose flourish once a week
The Marineland slimline filters are good and reasonable. Watch your feeding. It's easy to over feed a tank with only a couple of fish. I'd change the CFLs at least every 6 months. Some people change them every 3 months. The light quality changes over time even though it looks the same. Really, it sounds like filtration / feeding are causing your problem since you have a lot of waste laying around.
I would have to agree that filtration might be some of it. Also do you do any gravel vacuuming?? As for the lights do you what wattage they are? How long are they are for?

I am surprised no one has talked about this here. What are your thoughts? Evidently Ryan is back in with Sean Katterle who despises Inzer and I wonder if that is coloring Ryan's thoughts on matters? Interesting discussion if nothing else.
I am surprised no one has talked about this here. What are your thoughts? Evidently Ryan is back in with Sean Katterle who despises Inzer and I wonder if that is coloring Ryan's thoughts on matters? Interesting discussion if nothing else.
i was wondering the same thing myself..
Proud to be sponsored by APT prowriststraps.com
90* just means you're halfway there to becoming a man!
I had heard there was some bad blood regarding Kennelly's name for a website? I'm not sure how correct this is though. All hearsay.
thats what he said in the interview wendler put up...he was quite pointed towards John Inzer personally
I really don't like the whole situation because Inzer has giving so much back to Powerlifting Community. Why try to stab your ex-sponsor in the back? This whole situation could have been handled a lot better through email or phone call. All sponsored lifters have Inzer email or phone number! It's an honor to get sponsorship, but don't act like this. Nothing good will come from this at all!
The last 5 years, Inzer has given me almost $10,000 in gear & gift certificates to give alway at NASA meets. Again, you are in the wrong sport if you want to make a living from it. Competing is a hobby!!
I truly believe that sponsors should be treated with respect and loyalty. I always get attacked on other forums for promoting my sponsors. I have my own personal hating fan club on three other different training forums. Well, I'm going to continue to promote my sponsors and bring them more business. If you don't like it, don't read my post
Last edited by NASAKYCHAIRMAN; 07-28-2008 at 11:56 AM.
I posted the interview a few days ago.They(Inzer) basically took his domain name and website and purchased it without his knowledge.Theyve cost him alot of money that he could have made from products,merch.He's not a happy guy.
I'm sure John doesn't want to lose Ryan as a sponsored athlete. He has Gene, Mendelson, Donnie Thompson, Andy Bolton, Rob Luyando, Vincent Dizenzo - you name them, he's got 'em.
There are always miscommunications that go on. Either way, it doesn't really matter one bit. Donnie left Elite because he didn't like the direction the business was going. Maybe Ryan doesn't like the way John is teating him. Who knows besides Ryan?
Whatever the outcome, I just want to see ryan lift weights. He's truly an anomale. Whatever shirt he wears, he's gonna bench big, and that's all I really care about.
Like Big Willie said, thank your sponsors. It's an honor to be a sponsored athlete. They don't have to sponsor you, they choose to. That's how I see it. SFW!
I agree, it seems like the wrong way to go about getting something you want by talking about it on a radio interview. No matter what, you should not go off on a sponsor like that. Things should be handled between the two people and then when a resolution is reached a public statement is fine. The way things went with Donnie and Elite in my opinion was a great way. Donnie handled himself in a very professional way and so did Elite.
The way I see it, we are not going to be making a living at this sport any time soon. Its a hobby and how many people can say they get sponsored to do their hobby? not many. I'm bummed Ryan has gone a different direction than Inzer because I think it'll take him awhile to find a comparable shirt which will really hamper his competition. Connecting with Sean Katterale I don't think is a good idea though

i agree with most on here, it could have been handled a lot better. but Ryan is not the type of guy to give a s***, and thats why i love him.

You should respect the people helping you but you they have to respect you back. I train with 2 of the best benchers and full meets lifters out there. Both can afford to buy what ever they need not really needing to get free stuff, but there is a mutual respect between them and the business owner. With out the respect it does matter how good you are. Also we don't and may never know what has happen over the phone or email between Ryan and John to lead them to the point there at now. Either way its a ****ty spot to be in.

I have never spoken to Inzer in person. I have had one of his representatives call me when we had some affiliation with Sean Katterle. I have also heard a lot about him (Inzer) having a very unique personality.
That said, he defintely gives a LOT back to the sport.
Now, I have met Ryan and he seemed like a decent guy.
It sounds like a relationship gone bad and a power play is going on.
I believe that Ryan tried to work things out with Inzer, before he went public. Everyone doesn't agree, but I think the top sponsored lifters should be paid under a contract. This would keep this public bickering from happening. Ryan definately tells it like he feels, but he burnt that bridge to the ground with Inzer. I think he got a little to personal in his attack on Inzer, but it shows just how pissed he is. I'm sure that Ryan will be able to put up huge #'s in any shirt he decides to wear.
I agree with others that it might not be a good idea for him to get involved in business dealings with Katterle after his last experience with him.
Can't wait 'til tomorrow, 'cause I get stronger every day!
I think this is between Ryan and John. As far as anyone telling another person how to run a business, that'a s joke. I like how so many are willing to put up Inzer's money. If you feel so bad for someone, send them a check. John has been nothing but supportive and generous to me. I think Ryan is the best bencher in the world and he has always been great in any correspondence I have had with him. I hope somehow this gets worked out in a mutually beneficial manner.

Vinny, you're right, it is between Ryan and John. But Ryan took the trash public, right or wrong, it happened. It also amazes me that so many powerlifters think that even the best don't deserve to receive a paycheck for what they do. I'm not saying that everyone that gets a free shirt once in a while should be paid, but damn, with guys like Kennelly & Luyando pushin with weights they do and also advertising that name every time they get on the platform, as well as on the internet, they should get a few pennies for it. Unfortunately PL never gets any TV coverage, where the $$ are at. I just saw a National Jump rope comp on FOX sports. Geeez.
Can't wait 'til tomorrow, 'cause I get stronger every day!
Man i am really sorry to hear about this fallout I know inzer is a pretty good sponsor from what i understand but if Ryan isnt getting paid anything or very little i could understand his frustration i know he has got to be coming out of pocket quite a bit for his travel and hotels food etc..I understand there isnt much money in powerlifting and that isnt the reason why lifters compete they compete because they love the sport.But at the same time with the cost of gas getting to the meets etc.. I could understand him wanting some money to cover his expenses he is a Top caliber lifter these demands shouldnt be such a demand for a company like Inzer thats been around for awhile and about his bench press performance i dont see why he should have to stop wearing his phenom just because of his performance if the shirt works use it.I wish Ryan the best of luck and i hope him and Inzer get things patched up
I agree with Ryan that someone like him SHOULD be making money from the sport and or his sponsors. The guys is the best of the best. He is also someone who has transcended the sport to some degree so it would be worth it to pay him something in my opinion.
Now, I am not saying it is incumbent on Inzer to pay him, that is his choice. I just understand Ryan's position on the issue of pay. In truth, I would be willing to pay him some kind of a monthly stipend in return for the proper endorsement on his end. He is the Jordan of his sport, a consistent performer who keeps upping the bar and is recognized by bodybuilders as well as powerlifters.

Carpe who?
I remember watching Jai Alai from TJ on UHF ch 14 or 28 on Sundays at dinner time. That was pretty cool. And roller derby Sunday nights on KCOP. Swim meets are exciting. Dressage is rather thrilling. Co-rec corporate league softball games are especially fun to watch when somebody named Tiffiny starts to cry after she falls down.
But what I like most of all is all the commentary and editorializing about sports. Is Lance filthy? How about Bonds? Would the guys on UFC still fight if they weren't paid or on TV? Its a shame I dont have Hi-Def!
College football.........and then whatever the current sport of the season is.

The only sport I watch is football. I have been glued to the tv for three weeks now watching the World Cup.
I tried American style football a couple of times but can only last three or four minutes. zzzzzzzzz
Other than that, the tv is usually in the O-F-F position.

F1 is good, but hard to see live in the States, due to the time difference. Nascar is a bore to me.
Speaking of cycling on TV, have you ever noticed that Paul Sherwin begins every comment he makes during a race by repeating the last sentance that Phil Ligget just said? Seriously! Check it out when the Tour starts next week!
Phil: "My goodness, Hincapie was certainly showing good form in the spring classics."
Paul: "Hincapie was showing good form in the spinrg classics, but he's 16 minutes in the arears now..."
Phil: "This is usually the warmest part of France during this time of year..."

Used to be F1 but the rule changes over the past few years mean that for me it is now ruined. It is supposed to be the Ultimate Motor sport, but the rule for the last couple of seasons about NO tyre changes meant that the drivers could not afford to push the Car to the limit as the tyres would not make it. The still current rule about one engine having to do two races means that you cannot push the engines. Then the Timed practice- This year has got something sensible and I think is probably the best it has ever been. Problem is that the limitations placed on preserving machinery no longer delivers the ultimate sport. Then any form of motor sport no longer has the same fascination for me. EXCEPT Moto GP. Here is a sport on a vehicle that I am not interested in- Motorbikes but the racing is fantastic. Can't overtake in an F1 car- Watch Moto GP for all aspects of racing coming to the fore.

Watching football or basketball is quite rare for me, although it's easy to get caught up in the Caviliers with LeBron James and the playoffs and all the hype.
My wife is a graduate of the same high school that LeBron played for when he was building his fame. She watches far more basketball than I do.

Here we go again. Authorities of the US Federal Reserve in an implicit pabulum about "exit strategy".
From Yahoo news:
The Federal Reserve will keep buying bonds indefinitely to try to keep long-term borrowing costs low. It's just not clear how long indefinitely will be.Minutes of the Fed's last policy meeting show that officials were divided about when to halt the purchases.Some of the 12 voting members thought the bond purchases would be needed through 2013. Others felt they should be slowed or stopped altogether before year's end. This group worries that the bond buying is keeping rates so low for so long that it could ignite inflation or encourage speculative buying of risky assets.The Fed last month ended up approving open-ended purchases of $85 billion a month in Treasurys and mortgage bonds to replace an expiring bond-purchase plan and maintain its level of purchases.The minutes covered the Fed's Dec. 11-12 meeting. In a statement after the meeting, the Fed said it planned to keep a key interest rate at a record low even after unemployment falls close to a normal level — which it said might take three more years…The minutes showed that "several" Fed policymakers thought the bond buying should probably stop well before 2013 ends.
They babbled about "exit strategy" in 2010. They tattled of withholding QE 3.0 in 2011.
At the end of the day: the US Federal Reserve ended up with the opposite: escalation of their balance sheet via increasing asset purchases (chart from Cleveland Federal Reserve).
That's why I call them the Poker Bluffing Fed.
A 'probable end' to bond buying translates to higher interest rates.
This will mean more than just ideology, this entails how the Fed authorities views the world and their path dependent ways of implementing policies (solving problems) in accordance to such purview: particularly demand based management, the wealth effect and the portfolio balance channel.
Of course, higher interest rates will likely ruffle or pummel financial markets severely which monetary authorities have been so sensitive to protect.
These include the stock markets which has been Fed Chair Ben Bernanke's once held basic creed for 'smart' central banking, and the bond markets where the US government—as well as global governments—and key US and international financial institutions have substantial exposures, if not deep dependency, on credit easing policies.
Just to give a few examples:
The opaque derivatives markets have been mostly anchored on interest rate based derivative contracts whose maturity has been shortening.
Notes the Bank of International Settlement:
Interest rate contracts have become increasingly short-term in recent years. Notional amounts of contracts with maturities of more than five years fell by 9% in the first half of 2012 to $117 trillion, or 24% of total interest rate contracts. By contrast, the volume of contracts with a maturity of up to one year went up by 4% to $207 trillion, or 42% of the total. In the mid- and late 2000s, longer-term contracts accounted for up to 35% of all interest rate contracts.
Higher interest rates would likely increase the counterparty and default risks for the humongous derivatives market.
The recovering US real estate market has also been latched to recent low interest and credit easing policies by the US Federal Reserve
Given that the Fed holds substantial mortgage securities and where the Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs) account for 99.5% of the mortgage market, a possible rise in interest rate will likely undermine their portfolio holdings (of the Fed and the GSEs) at the taxpayer's expense (chart from Freddie Mac)
Also, given that the US Federal Reserve has financed practically 61% of US treasury debt in 2011, a desistance of support by the US Federal Reserve on US treasury debt enhances the risks of a debt default by the US government.
US Treasury securities held by the FED has been programmed to grow through the recently implemented QE 4.0 (chart from the St. Louis Federal Reserve)
Likewise, given that publicly held debt by the US will continue to expand, higher interest rates possibly means amplified credit and rollover risks for the US government. (charts from the Heritage Foundation)
Of course foreign currency swaps, the marked difference between total bank deposits and loans in the US banking system, devaluation as an official policy, and many other factors have become dependent on the backings and credit easing policies of the US Federal Reserve.
Thus the (possible histrionic) dissension among FED authorities may be interpreted as the following possibilities:
-trial balloon to see how financial market responds (yes commodities down, but stock markets losses were marginal so far),
-spur of the moment sentiment by Fed authorities that will easily shift once downside volatility resurfaces
-an attempt to manage or control "inflation expectations" via indirectly targeting commodity prices. Gold prices bore the brunt while the US dollar rallied from yesterday's announcement. This could also be part of the surreptitious design to suppress gold prices
Yes current policies are unsustainable. But FED authorities are unlikely to tergiversate on the direction of policymaking which has been adapted by almost every central banker around the world since 2008.
To repeat, authorities of developed economies whom has embarked on credit easing policies via ZIRP and balance sheet expansions account for 95% of the USD 98.4 trillion global bond markets, where 45% of the share of the bond markets are government bonds.
The bottom line is that current credit easing policies have been deeply intertwined or embedded with the interests of the status quo or particularly the political-economic cartel of the welfare-warfare state, crony banks and central banking.
Authorities of the FED will most likely evade the responsibility from the financial market bloodbath or meltdown that may ensue once interest rate substantially rises. And like Pontius Pilate, they will likely be washing their hands and leave tightening to the marketplace.

January 14, 2011
Recently my life fell apart financially, emotionally and spiritually. I had hit bottom. I have been in recovery for 25 years but I found a new addiction, or really not so new -- it might have been my first addiction -- and that is control. For the first 13 years of living with HIV infection as well as acute, chronic ITP (idiopathic thrombocytopenia pupura) I came to accept I was powerless. It is one thing HIV, if you are willing, will teach you in spades.
But over the last seven years with the availability of treatment I realized if the drugs continue to work, and even if they take 20 years off the back end of my life (sorry AARP -- I wouldn't want them anyway), I might live another 25 years. Without that faithful companion of certain death from HIV infection (all I had to do was worry about getting hit by a bus), I reverted back to that need to try and control everything.
That is how I found myself freezing in a cold house watching my husband's despair turn to bitterness over a failed business that I had invested all my money and most of American Express, Visa and MasterCard's credit lines into. I kept thinking I could make it work; he wanted to let go about $50,000 ago.
I didn't stop there. I tried to control his depression, tried to motivate, change and help him. It made things worse and over the last year it became apparent that our lives were at a standstill.
Even before our financial crisis, things were not going well. It took the loss of everything including money, home, credit and intimate relationship for me to see more clearly. Up until this year, about the time the HIV meds kicked in, I have been living with the decisions I made essentially from a deathbed. It was time to live, but I was imprisoned with these choices that were lovely but not working -- including a half a million dollar home, many toys and a relationship that had morphed into dysfunctional codependence.
Every day was painful. I didn't know what to do. So I took drastic action. I left. I knew it had to be fast because slow is really painful so I pulled the band-aid off with speed I didn't know I had (it took me 10 years to decide on a sofa). I called a lawyer, filed for bankruptcy, stopped paying the mortgage and went on Craigslist and started looking for somewhere else to live.
I looked to the South, but too many churches for this Jew. My girlfriend who settled in Georgia said if I came down there would be two Jews in Georgia and as great as that sounded, I kept looking. I was in San Francisco thinking how much I would love to live there but even the smallest apartment was crazy expensive. On a lark I thought I would look at Craigslist in the Caribbean.
There was an interesting ad for an apartment on Water Island. I had never heard of Water Island and it took quite a bit of Googling to find it. It is less than 500 acres; about 75 homes, no restaurants, hotels or businesses of any kind and you can only get to it by boat.
I called and asked if the apartment was still available and the woman said yes. I said would call her back. I went to look for a flight. My thinking was, if there is a cheap one then it is meant to be. There was a ticket to fly to St. Thomas the next day for $235.
I called back and asked if I could see the apartment. She asked when would I like to come down and I said tomorrow. She was a little taken aback and said how about the day after. I said okay. I flew to St. Thomas already thinking it was a waste of time and money, and was filled with guilt -- apparently the band-aid was still hanging on.
I landed and took a taxi to my hotel which was advertised as cheap but nice. It was cheap but not very nice. I thought I would look at the apartment and just fly home, no big deal. No expectation.
The next morning I went down to this restaurant by the dock called Tickles and waited for a ferry. Once on the ferry, I started to get a little excited. The amazing color of the water and the warm wind in my hair brought a smile to my face.
A 10-minute ride took me to a plain concrete dock and there waited my host, Linda, to show me the place. We drove up a hill and got out. The first apartment she showed me was a nightmare and I realized why it was so cheap. But she had another apartment. We climbed the stairs of this ancient stone structure reminiscent of the house where Meryl Streep lived in the movie Mamma Mia and walked into a bright white one bedroom with a kitchen that faced St. Thomas and deck that faced the bay. Stunning, but a little pricy.
I didn't want to get stressed out about money again, and then I was still thinking about how it would work with my husband. While I was deep in thought Linda said I would have to hurry if I wanted to catch the ferry. I asked her if I could stay in the apartment a few days to think about it; she said yes.
Over the course of the next few days it was revealed to me that I was meant to live here, from the sunset walks to the morning swims on an empty beach. What sealed the deal was one morning while sitting at a restaurant on the ocean in St. Thomas (I had gone over with Linda to get a feel of what shopping for groceries was like) I was talking about how to make it work in particular with my husband and she said to me, "It will not get any better." What she meant was I was still trying to control everything. She continued by saying, not only was I hurting him, I was hurting myself. Maybe I just wanted to hear that but I felt like I was just punched in the stomach. I knew it was the truth. Once I started to think of only me in the apartment it was easy. I signed a lease and went home to tell my husband.
I was filled with guilt: Here was a man who stood by me when I was ill. For over five years while receiving a weekly IV treatment for ITP, when I was weak and sick and barely had the energy to work let alone really participate in a relationship, he buoyed my spirits and his love carried me through such dark times. What a jerk I was leaving him at his lowest. I talked to my husband about taking a year away so I can sort out my feelings. He was sad about my choice but understanding my need, he agreed.
Two days before I was to leave we were sitting in an empty house, or almost empty. I had sold everything, packed away my paintings and had gone and seen all my doctors, had all my shots and mammograms; and he said to me, "You are not coming back, are you?" I said I didn't know. He became enraged and said all the things I had been thinking: "Thanks for standing by me when I really need you; I was there for you," He stormed off and started making plans for himself.
As painful as that conversation was, he was suddenly taking some action. Up till then he had been paralyzed. The hardest thing was to not give in and tell him how much I love him and want him to come with me. Translate: continue to control his life, take care of everything, and make it work.
He drove me to the airport. Our conversation alternated between love and bitterness. It was three days before our 10th wedding anniversary. I got out of the car and it took everything I had within me to walk away. I lugged the three huge suitcases and a handful of prescriptions from my doctor for every possible disaster or ailment and set forth on another journey. Four hours later I landed in St. Thomas, took a cab to Tickles and a ferry to my new home.
From my front porch.
It has been several weeks and it is the best thing I have done for myself and my relationship. My husband is OK; he's working very hard to create a life for himself. He is doing some things he dreamed of but because of our beautiful prison he was also unable to do. He is excited and working toward his goals every day. Some days I want to go home so badly but I know that it would revert back to the same dynamic; I am not that well yet. If it is meant to be I know in the future this time and space will allow us to be together in a whole different way.
In the meantime I wake at dawn, go for a run then a swim, do yoga on the beach. Catch a ride with one of my new friends (of Bill W.) on one of their dinghies, go to St. Thomas for a 12-step meeting then take the ferry home back to my lovely retreat and work either painting, writing or running my business. I am scheduling my performances and presentations so I will come up one week out of the month, and I've already connected with the Department of Education for the Caribbean Territories.
At night I sit quietly looking out on the twinkling lights of St. Thomas. Most all the time in-between in waking meditations, no TV, no radio, no distraction; I feel so blessed. I speak with my husband every night (thank you Skype!) before I go to bed.
I still feel twinges of guilt but mostly I have found peace and I am excited about my future. I am broke, no credit cards and I relearned how to live on a super slim budget (rice and beans) and it adds to my meditative state. I have the time to cook.
Island living is not for pussies, as romantic as it may seem; it is very different than anything you can imagine. Every little thing you need you have to bring here. Water is scarce and there are all kinds of creepy crawlies. But it has made me realize how little I need and how aware I have become.
I also know I will not stay here forever. I can go and do anything. My job affords me that luxury. I have enough frequent flyer points to fly around the world. I am thinking Thailand then Madrid. I always wanted to live in San Francisco and now realize, for a couple of months, I can sublet or find a room. I am excited about the possibilities. Most of all I am learning to let go. No expectations.
I no longer say, "I lost everything." Now I say, "I let it go; I shed one life for another." If HIV has taught me anything it is that if I wanted another 10 years in the situation I was in it was sure to stay the same. Nothing changes if nothing changes. The band-aid is now floating in the Caribbean along with 1,000 pounds of dysfunction and I feel lighter, happier and free.

Is It Time to Evolve Your Practice?
Marco's computerized refractor will give you and your staff the gift of time.
As the profession of optometry changes and advances, we feel more constraints on our most precious asset: time. Anything that helps ease the daily flow of patients through our practices is of tremendous value. Marco has developed a new electronic refractor (the Evolution) that greatly aids the refraction process and allows this information to flow efficiently through our practice.
Your back will appreciate it
Marco's Evolution is a user-friendly electronic refractor that transmits objective information from our Marco automatic
refractor/keratometer and our Spectrum automatic lensometer in the pretest area directly to the exam rooms. Within the rooms, we accomplish subjective refraction with automated chart projectors and an electronic Evolution refractor, which we control with an illuminated hand-held remote control.
One button set-up of various tests including binocular balance,
phoria/vergence testing and JCC allows us to move smoothly through the refraction sequence. We spend no time or excess energy reaching and stretching from projector to
phoropter. After nearly 10 years of practice, shoulder pain and neck stress at the end of the day has abated. An attached printer in each exam room also provides a printout of all objective and subjective information collected during the refraction process, including visual acuities
(VAs), keratometry readings and contact lens conversion values.
Marco's Evolution lets
you update your
practice's most valuable
piece of equipment.
Operational in 30 minutes
The Evolution is easy to install. A Marco representative trains the doctor in less than 30 minutes, so you can have the system operational for your patients the same day.
This new refraction process has been beneficial to both staff and patients. Our staff certainly doesn't miss setting the dials of the old phoropters to the autorefraction findings by hand -- the Evolution inputs the information automatically, thus saving valuable time and speeding the refraction process. In the past, I've introduced refraction to our technicians on the traditional phoropters and found it a difficult task. The Evolution's hand-held remote and illuminated phoropter screen shows the patient's prescription, VA and chart target simultaneously. So it's been easier to instruct our staff -- a real boon since we're considering delegating the initial refraction to them.
The majority of our patient's professions are computer-oriented and the Evolution refractor has helped our practice stand out in a competitive local eyecare market by making our exams a technological experience. Several times each day, our patients remark on how impressed they are with the system. They also say it makes the whole refraction process easier, helping to reduce the "one or two" anxiety. From our perspective, being able to swiftly show the improvement in vision from the current prescription to the new subjective results helps patients justify eyeglass and contact lens purchases, which drives the optical side of our practice.
A change for the better
Purchasing and instituting a new technology can be a trying endeavor. However, implementing the electronic refractor the Evolution was hassle-free and made positive changes to our exam process immediately. For our practice, this refraction system, as the Evolution name implies, was our next step.

Drog The Misunderstood Caveman Comedian
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Drog The Misunderstood Caveman Comedian (lived 1,412,384 BCE - 1,412,360 BCE) was an unpopular (cave)man in his own time, for using what little language was available at the time to ridicule his foul-smelling, hirsute peers (which is not to imply that Drog was less foul-smelling and hirsute).
A Misunderstood Career
Drog was known in his own time as simply Drog The Misunderstood Comedian, since, in point of fact, everyone was a caveman, even the women. He originally billed himself as Drog The Comedian, or, in caveman parlance, "Drog The Funny-Man". He changed that the next year by appending the "Misunderstood" to Comedian ("No-One-Get-Me Funny-Man"). This was a result of poor reviews by his contemporaries.
A number of the poor reviews may in fact have been biased against Drog due to the offense he frequently gave his audience. A sample, extracted from cave walls and edited to make it more readable for a modern audience, follows:
"...I mean, Gargi is the best-looking cave-chick here, and only because she shaved her beard! Haha, just joking with you Gargi, you can put that brontosaurus bone down, we love you. But seriously, I just found out last week that my mother is actually my father. I said to him, 'Where's my mom, then?' and he says, 'I 'ate 'er.' and I'm like, 'I'm not even going there', you know what I mean?..."
"...I mean, is anyone here planning on showering anytime this epoch? I smell T-Rex dung in here! Whew! It must be Zorng the Blind Batty Old Caveman back there -- hey Zorng, how old are you this week? (from back) 'I'm thirty-five, no, thirty-six' Haha, that Zorng for you, always exaggerating. Anyway, I figure only Zorng could have stepped in it, seeing as he's blind and all, and that T-Rex dung is pretty freaking huge... (booing) What? He's blind, it's... heh... aren't blind people funny?..."
Too Short a Life
At an early age everycavebody said Drog was funny looking, (having never learned the word looking) this lead Drog to believe he was funny and set the stage for his life. Drog died months too early at the ripe old age of 24. An analysis of his skull fragments indicates that they were repeatedly stepped on by a multi-ton reptilian animal sometime after his arms were tied with pterodactyl tails and his hairy body was pelted with stone arrows and stone rocks. It is doubted that his death was accidental, as very few cavemen died this way, and they were generally the least popular ones. Drog is remembered by comedian-historians today as a pioneer in the field, the best known students of Drog, Don Rickles, Sam Kinison and Rodney Dangerfield say his contributions will not soon be forgotten. Drog also had his run-ins with gay strip clubs, and had his fair share of white russians.
- Drog's parents Druug (father) and Ugzilla (mother) both died in a strange incident involving a large egg, a velociraptor and a salmon colored sabertooth tiger (this story was later used as a plot to a pink panther cartoon). Grrrr.... even parents better in showbiz than Drog and dey not try.
- Drog's sister Pugzilla lived to the ripe old age of 33 and was a very sucessful professional buisness woman. She was a stripper or in the language of the time a bearskin taker-offer. Drog alway jealous sister do good in showbiz.
- Drog's little brother was eaten by a pack of rabbid sabertooth snails at age 3.Grr snails eat brother, Drog eat snails!! This is the 1st recorded instance of someone eating snails (Drog recorded it on his cave wall in what is now France).
- Drog's immaginary friend PeeWee Herman is alive and well to this day. It OK immaginary friend do OK in showbiz, he not real.
Television and Movie Appearances
- 1970-1972 Lancelot Link Secrete Chimp : young Drog was an extra and evil henchmonkey for C.H.U.M.P. in most episodes (Drog never invited to cast parties after 1st time, Drog even wear lampshade on head but no laughing, chimps no have sense of humor?).
- 1978 Flintstones Appearance : Drog was bowling 2 lanes down from Fred and Barney. He later did some stand-up at the bowling alley until Fred clobbered him with a bowlingball (Drog need 14 stitches, this was cut in editing and is only seen in the directors-cut box-set. Drog also "accidently" walk into Wilma's dressing room when Wilma changing, Drog too stunned to make joke).
- 1981 Caveman (Movie) with Ringo Starr : Drog plays tribeman in enemy tribe. Drog also did all the cave-art work on the set and was Ringo's stunt double! These were Drog's happiest times, Ringo autographed Drogs club and they would hang out some nights after shooting. Ringo was the only person to laugh at any of Drogs jokes (historians believe this was due to the fact that Ringo had never heard anybody butcher the English language worse than himself).
- 1988 Dr Who Appeared in Doctor Ouk Oook episode : The out of control Tardis goes to prehistoric Earth and lands on Drog, later near the end of the episode Drog hosts a celebrity roast of the Doctor (this cut when Drog try cook Doctor, Ha Ha Ha Drog funny. This cut scene is now available in the Dr Who out-take and blooper DVD).

The National Compensation Survey (NCS) provides comprehensive measures of occupational earnings; compensation cost trends (including the Employment Cost Index (ECI) and the Employer Costs for Employee Compensation (ECEC)), and detailed benefit provisions.
For more detailed information, please see the "Examples of Data Use" below.
Examples of ECI/ECEC Data Use
The base index is calculated by averaging the percent increases in the Pennsylvania Statewide average weekly wage (as determined by the Pennsylvania Department of Labor) and the annual percent change in the ECI (looking at Quarter 2 data) for the elementary and secondary school series.
For example, the 2008-2009 school year—
Percent increase in Statewide weekly wage: 4.3%
Percent annual ECI increase (QTR 2 2007): 4.5%
Base inflation index : 4.4%
Further adjustments are made to each individual school district's inflation index based on the district's relative market value and personal income valuation, compared to the statewide average. For school districts with a market value/personal income aid ratio (MV/PI AR) greater than 0.4000, the value of their index is adjusted upward by multiplying the base index by the sum of 0.75 and their MV/PI AR.
For example, the Scranton school district-
State base inflation index: 4.4%
Scranton MV/PI aid ratio: .6999
Adjusted index= 4.4% X (.75 + .6999) = 6.4%
Therefore, the Scranton school district can raise property taxes no more than 6.4%.
The "Homeowner Tax Relief Act" did not mandate that school districts participate, but in 2006 Pennsylvania legislators passed another bill entitled the "Taxpayer Relief Act," which required that all school districts comply with the new policies. As such, all property owners and school districts in Pennsylvania are now affected by the ECI-derived base index.

Uruguay Approves Civil Unions
Timothy Kincaid
December 18th, 2007
It's a good day for same-sex couples. Following up on Hungary, Reuters reports that Uruguay is also now offering its gay couples protection under the law.
Uruguay's Congress legalized civil unions for homosexual couples on Tuesday in the first nationwide law of its kind in Latin America.
Under the new law, gay and straight couples will be eligible to form civil unions after living together for five years. They will have rights similar to those granted to married couples on such matters as inheritance, pensions and child custody.
Uruguay's Senate passed the bill unanimously after the lower house approved it last month, a congressional spokesman said. The country's center-left president is expected to sign it into law.
Although this was expected, its nice to se unanimous Senate support.

JC man pleads guilty in attempted escape
Saturday, August 17, 2013
A Jefferson City man has pleaded guilty to federal charges of methamphetamine distribution and attempting to escape from custody in late 2012.
There was no word on when Mitchell Atterberry, 36, would be sentenced.
A Jefferson City woman, Amanda Lesh, 35, has already pleaded guilty to helping Atterberry try to escape from the Morgan County Jail, where he was being held.
She smuggled a hacksaw blade into his cell.
Atterberry told Lesh in a recorded telephone conversation that they "worked on it late last night, couldn't get it done" and in a later call that day said they hoped to get it done "by tonight."
The day after the phone call was recorded, authorities received a tip about the escape plans.
Deputies found the window had been damaged. The metal support beam had been cut most of the way through. They also found a 10-inch saw blade in the mat on the top bunk of the cell and a smaller 2-inch saw blade that appeared to have broken off the larger blade.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced Tuesday that it has expanded its "precheck" program, offering expedited security perks, to qualified passengers at Denver International Airport.
DIA is the 27th airport to receive the program. TSA tested the program in four U.S. cities last year and is now in the midst of rolling it out nationally.
To be eligible, a passenger must be traveling domestically, a frequent flyer or a member of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Trusted Traveler programs, and a U.S. citizen.
The frequent flyer passengers must be traveling on one of the five participating airlines — Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and US Airways.
"The airline's boarding pass has to be able to talk to our system, so the airline does have to do some slight modifications to their software programs," said Chris McLaughlin, TSA assistant administrator.
Participating travelers now have their own security line at the terminal's south checkpoint, which opened early Tuesday morning.
The "precheck" program is a part of the agency's risk-based security approach that attempts to focus its resource on what it considers high-risk passengers — or those the agency knows less about — by freeing up resources it was spending on passengers who have proven to be low-risk.
"In many ways, this is the flagship of TSA's risk-based programs," McLaughlin said.
The screening begins in the approval process, which occurs prior to arriving at the security gate. The information is then embedded into the barcode on the traveler's boarding pass, allowing them to breeze through security without removing belts, jackets, or laptops from bags.
"But, it's important to note that TSA will always maintain some random screenings," McLaughlin said. "There will be random exclusions on any given day."
