Monday, September 29, 2008. (AP) -- Doctors say Jacksonville lineman Richard Collier is paralyzed below the waist and that they amputated one of his legs.
Collier was shot and critically wounded earlier this month as he sat in a vehicle outside an apartment building with a former teammate. Doctors say he has 14 bullet wounds, but is now in stable condition. No one has been arrested.

Drunken Christmas fruit dessert
Article By: Henrie GeyserFri, 07 Dec 2012 5:28 AM
Fruit baked or cooked in wine and served warm or chilled is a perfect way to pay tribute to a fine summer's meal and what more delightful than today's dessert of mixed fruit simmered in sweet wine? Better still, this can be made well in advance and kept covered in the refrigerator.
For four portions you need:
½ cup prunes, seeds remove
½ cup dried peaches
8 dried figs, halved
½ cup dried apricots
1 tablespoon seedless raisins
1 tablespoon currants
½ cup caster sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon honey
½ cup hanepoot (or any other sweet wine)
320ml (about 1.5 cups) dry white wine
4 cinnamon sticks
4 light crushed cardamom pods
In a pot combined the sugar, caster sugar, wine, hanepoot and honey.
Stir gently until the sugar has dissolved.
Add the cinnamon and cardamom and let the sweet sauce murmur along uncovered for a further four minutes or so.
Add the fruit and continue simmering for about 10 minutes or until fruit is soft.
Remove cinnamon stick and cardamom pods before serving.
Serve well chilled with baby finger biscuits or Italian biscotti biscuits and a dollop of cream, custard, yoghurt or ice cream.

Out of thousands of prison volunteers in our state one from Eastern Carolina has been named volunteer of the year. For 25 years Marvin Burley has been passing out bibles and offering a lending ear when inmates at the Greene Correctional Institution in Maury need to talk. Burley says it's not his job to judge these men - but to offer them hope and guidance if the inmates allow them to embrace him into their lives. The inmates we talked with say Burley is an inspiration to them and vice versa. Burley says out of 25 years of volunteering only about five inmates haven't received him very well, a stark contrast to the hundreds of inmates who have welcomed him into their hearts.

People: Leander Kubel
The younger brother of Elleon Kubel and a high-ranking magister and scholar. He seems to specialize in researching demons and other dark energies, as another NPC calls him a "walking encyclopedia" of demonic knowledge.
When his brother goes missing on the Island of Dawn and is written off as dead, Leander organizes an expedition to return to the island and discover the truth of what happened there. He recruits both Federation veterans and an army of rookie soldiers to aid him – including the player's character, thus officially beginning the player's journey into the world of TERA.
Leander is shown to be somewhat abrupt and sarcastic at times; his Elin comrade Eria writes this off as due to the stress of his brother's disappearance.
After the player helps him solve the mystery of the first expedition's disappearance and departs the Island of Dawn, Leander is not seen again. However, he is mentioned during the Dark Cathedral questline in Tulufan. A quest-giving NPC says that "Elleon and Leander" were the only two to make it far into the cathedral before their disappearance.
Strangely, however, when the player catches up with Elleon and Jelena inside of Cultist's Refuge, Leander is nowhere to be found, and no mention is made of his whereabouts.*
*Needs confirmation. My memory is shaky, will confirm this when I run through these quests again. I'm just putting this here as-is for now so I don't forget!

Nutrition and Physical Fitness has had seven previous editions. Each has been an able presentation of nutritional knowledge available at the time of publication, but none has been more or less interesting and useful than other textbooks written for the beginning student. In this, the eighth edition, the senior author has recognized contemporary trends in nutrition: the shift in emphasis from the whole organism to the metabolism of the cell, and a movement away from a preoccupation with our own problems to the nutritional difficulties of the world. As a consequence, she has recruited Dr. George M. Briggs and Dr. Doris Howes Calloway, both of the Department of Nutritional Sciences, University of California, as co-authors. The results is indeed a happy marriage. Exact science, presented by a student sufficiently at ease in the field to be able to reduce complicated concepts to terms that are understandable to the student, is

President Barack Obama's performance Tuesday surpassed that in his first debate with Gov. Mitt Romney. He fared much better on style, but on substance, his rhetoric in many instances didn't match his record.
"I think a lot of this campaign, maybe over the last four years, has been devoted to this notion that I think government creates jobs, that that somehow is the answer," Mr. Obama said. "That's not what I believe. I believe that the free-enterprise system is the greatest engine of prosperity the world's ever known."
Yet the Obama administration, in the first 26 months of his presidency, imposed 75 new major regulations. The costs to the private sector exceeded $40 billion, according to the Heritage Foundation.
Unlike in the first debate, where Mr. Obama seemed listless, both candidates were assertive this time around and sparred on taxes, job creation, education, energy policy and immigration. Even Big Bird got a mention.
"We haven't heard from the governor any specifics beyond Big Bird and eliminating funding for Planned Parenthood," Mr. Obama said about Mr. Romney's tax and budget policies.
The debate got particularly interesting – and perhaps even a little heated – on energy policy. "We're drilling more on public lands than in the previous administration," Mr. Obama said. He added that his administration has "made the largest investment in clean coal technology, to make sure that, even as we're producing more coal, we're producing it cleaner and smarter. Same thing with oil, same thing with natural gas."
Mr. Romney vehemently disagreed and pointed to Obama policies that have blocked the coal industry. The largest union of coal miners has not endorsed Mr. Obama, concerned over Environmental Protection Agency regulations that ultimately mean less coal-run plants and fewer jobs.
Mr. Obama chastised Mr. Romney and claimed that the former Massachusetts governor would favor Arizona-style immigration reform. Although Mr. Obama has supported the Dream Act, particularly ahead of the election, it is worth noting that his administration's deportation record was quite high. In 2011, 391,953 people were deported – a number just slightly lower than the all-time record his administration set in 2009.
Mr. Obama landed a few jabs, particularly near the end, where he took Mr. Romney to task for his off-the-cuff remarks on "47 percent" of Americans who see themselves as victims. Yet his subtle references to past "policies that got us" into economic trouble – essentially blaming the George W. Bush administration – is unlikely to win over many undecided voters.
This debate likely won't move the opinion polls very much. President Obama's performance Tuesday was a vast improvement in terms of articulating his message. Gov. Romney, while his effort was not as remarkable as in the first debate, remained spirited and reasonably poised. Much like the vice presidential debate, Round 2 for Mr. Obama and Mr. Romney seemed a draw.

David Goscinski, owner of JJED Remodeling in Dumont, N.J., says he's had clients request bedroom renovations or upgrade basements that had been crammed with toys and used for play areas.
"Some are putting in home theaters or a man cave," Goscinski says. "Others are taking bedrooms and making them into offices so they don't have to pay their bills on the kitchen table."
Peggy Vandervoot and her husband, Mijo Mirkovic, from Ridgewood, remodeled several times as their three children moved through high school, college and beyond. One child is still attending college, another married and a third moved back home between college and medical school.
"We're of the mind-set that when your kids go to college, they don't go away and stay," Vandervoot says.
"They are always coming back, and now my daughter is married and she may start creating more people that will come back to the house."
Vandervoot says before they started renovating, they also considered moving, but wanted to stay on the east side of Ridgewood. They found, however, that most of the houses in that section of the village were the same size as their own home. Their house also had a lot of qualities they just didn't want to give up.
"We live in a flat area on a cul-de-sac with good transportation to New York City, where my husband works," Vandervoort says. "We would have had to spend a huge amount of money to move to a more expensive neighborhood and we found we would have had to sacrifice something that we already had."
Instead, they expanded their kitchen and reconfigured a good portion of the house's general layout.
"We took some space from our dining room and expanded the great room," Vandervoort says. "The remainder of the dining room became an office and storage space, and we made a much larger living room and kitchen. The whole area just has a lot smoother run."
Tony Guerriero, owner of The Renovation Co. in Saddle Brook, says he's had a few requests from similar clients who decided to stay put.
"It's too early to tell if this is what is to come—at this point it's kind of random," Guerriero says. "But when people are happy with their neighbors and comfortable with their town, they don't want to move."
In addition to enlarging the dining and living rooms, the Shankses put in a new kitchen and great room. And best of all, David Shanks got his spacious shower.
"We put in a (larger) shower with body jets and pebble stone," says Bob Olson, owner of Homes Resources in Ridgefield Park, who did a lot of the work in the Shanks home.

Rangers 4, Canadiens 1: Wrapping up
Either this wasn't the Canadiens team the Rangers lost to twice in Montreal or it wasn't the Rangers' team that performed so poorly north of the border. As Brian Boyle said, the Canadiens tried to "lull us to sleep, they tried to bait us," in order for the Canadiens to beat the Rangers in transition. But the Rangers, except for a few minutes late in the second period, never lost control of the game nor did they allow the Canadiens to outskate them.
The answer, of course, is that this is a Canadiens team - the GM was fired yesterday - that can't wait to get to the end of the season.
The Rangers, who reduced their magic number to clinch the Eastern Conference's top seed while notching their 50th victory for just the third time in franchise history while climbing atop the NHL standings with 107 points over idle St. Louis, have now won four straight against four opponents not going to the playoffs - the Maple Leafs (4-3 shootout win on Saturday, the Wild, a 3-2 win on Tuesday, the Jets, a 4-2 win on Wednesday, and now the Canadiens.
Coach John Tortorella said after the game that those types of the games are not the easiest to play because the opponents can play so loose.
Here is the game story from The Record.
Three of the Rangers final four regular-season games will be against playoff teams and the regular-season finale, next Saturday at the Garden, is against the Capitals, who may be playing to get in as an eighth seed - and face the Rangers yet again in the first round.
"Our approach doesn't change," Henrik Lundqvist said. "I think we have to look at each game as an opportunity to build our own game and build our own confidence and just make sure we feel really good when the season's over."

Follow the Record Sports Staff at twitter.com/TheRecordSports
But, as noted in the game story, the big deal today was that the Rangers power play against scored twice. Sort of remarkable in a bad way that it took until game No. 78 for the Rangers to have two power play goals in back-to-back games.
"We're moving the puck really well, shooting the puck," Lundqvist said. "It looks like they have a lot of confidence out there. It looks great. It was just a matter of time. We've got so many skilled players out there moving the puck. You can see when it's tape-to-tape, it looks like the power play has so much more speed and it's creating so many more chances because of that. The passing was really crisp."
Another way to put it is neither the players nor the puck were stagnant on the ice. The basic first-unit formation was Michael Del Zotto and Derek Stepan at the points with Marian Gaborik, Brad Richards and Ryan Callahan down low. But, at times, you'd see Marian Gaborik at the point as the players rotated through the zone. Or Brad Richards. As Del Zotto said, the Rangers were "unpredictable" in where they were going to be and that made them dangerous.
Gaborik scored at even strength to give him 39 goals, leaving him one shy of reaching 40 for the second time in three seasons with the Rangers. Only Mike Gartner and Jean Ratelle have reached 40 goals as a Ranger multiple times. Gaborik would also be a 40-goal scorer for the third time in his career.
"It would definitely be nice," Gaborik said. "Hopefully I can reach that but I'm not trying to think about it too much, just try to go out there and do my thing and hopefully it will come."
Prior to the opening faceoff, Ryan Callahan was honored as this season's recipient of the Steven McDonald Extra Effort winner as voted upon by Rangers' fans.
Callahan is now a three-time winner, also collecting the award in 2009 and 2010.
The wheelchair-bound McDonald, a NYPD detection left quadriplegic after being shot three times in the line of duty in 1986, praised the entire team.
"Coach [John] Tortorella, captain Callahan, you have to know how much we appreciate your hard work, tenacity and fire," McDonald said. "All we ask is you play like champions and we'll see you in June."
"It means a lot coming from him," Callahan said of McDonald's speech. "I can't compare myself to what he did for a living. We just play a game. It's an honor to win that award, especially when he comes out and says those things. I take it to heart."
Tortorella, too, was visibly moved by seeing McDonald along with his son, Conor, also a NYPD officer.
"I have a tremendous amount of respect for him and what he has done and how he handles himself," Tortorella said. "It's always interesting what he is going to say in that type of situation."
Some other notes:
- Michael Del Zotto played in his 200th NHL game.
- The Rangers have reached 50 victories just twice previously in the franchise's first 85 seasons – 1991-92 and their Stanley Cup season of 1993-94. The Rangers won the President's Trophy both seasons for having the most points in the league.
- Tortorella said the Rangers returned Tim Erixon to Connecticut (AHL) on Thursday to give the rookie defenseman a chance to play after he was a healthy scratchy the two previous games.
- Brandon Dubinsky and Carl Hagelin each had five shots
- Derek Stepan had two assists to reach 50 points.

"The Vedic literatures describe this material world as darkness. Actually it is dark, and therefore we require sunlight, moonlight and electricity. If it were not by nature dark, why would we require so many arrangements for artificial light? The Vedas enjoin that we should not remain in darkness: tamasi ma jyotir gama.

The man who has been involved in the biggest scandal China has seen in a generation has been expelled from the Communist Party.
Bo Xilai had already been suspended whilst he was investigated for what was termed "party indiscretions".
The state news agency Xinhua says he will be charged with corruption, bribe taking and what it calls "improper relations with a number of women".
It is the clearest sign yet that the party intends to prosecute Bo Xilai not just for offences against the party, but also for criminal offences related to the death of the British businessman Neil Heywood.
The state news agency said he will be charged over "abuse of power" which is understood to relate to the case surrounding Mr Heywood - indicating he could be charged with "covering up".
Mr Heywood was found dead in his hotel room in the Chinese city of Chongqing in November of last year. Initially, the authorities said he had died of natural causes.
Several months later the former police chief of Chongqing, Wang Lijun, went to the US Consulate in neighbouring Chengdu saying he had new information that Mr Heywood had been murdered.
The case was re-investigated and Bo Xilai's wife Gu Kailai was given a suspended death sentence after she admitted poisoning Mr Heywood.
Wang Lijun was given 15 years in jail after admitting covering up in the Heywood case.
In a double statement, the Communist Party also announced the date of its once-a-decade Congress as November 8.
This ends weeks of speculation about the date of the Congress. It seems the party wants Bo Xilai dealt with before the Congress.
At the Congress, Xi Jinping is expected to be announced as the next head of the Communist Party and in turn President of China, taking over from Hu Jintao.

Fairfield Inn & Suites ELEVATES Female Entrepreneurs Across The Country
Entries for ELEVATE fueled by Fairfield Now Being Accepted
Small and women-owned businesses are two of today's most optimistic sectors of economic and professional growth. In an effort to help further the development and success of some of the most promising of these businesses, Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott has launched ELEVATE fueled by Fairfield, a pilot empowerment program offering free space, connections and resources to 20 female entrepreneurs across the country.
"Entrepreneurs are the backbone of a strong economy, yet many small businesses struggle for even the basics that allow for productivity and success," said Shruti Buckley, vice president and global brand manager for Fairfield Inn & Suites. "We want to help ELEVATE the great ideas and initiatives of women, and unlock the potential of their smart and powerful businesses."
In search of the most diverse and highly qualified applicants, Fairfield Inn & Suites has built a network of national and regional partners to identify and provide guidance to participants. The current list of partners includes the National Black MBA Association, Plaid for Women, United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Women Presidents' Educational Organization, Women's Business Development Center and Women's Business Enterprise National Council. These organizations will provide support via networking opportunities and business guidance throughout the duration of the program.
Beginning in August, the 20 selected candidates will participate in the three-month ELEVATE fueled by Fairfield program, with benefits including:
• Workspace in some of the newest Fairfield Inn & Suites properties in New York City, Chicago, Dallas, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C.
• Resources that contribute to a positive and productive experience, such as a "Connect-and-Print" area and free Wi-Fi
• Access to special networking events and guidance from prominent voices in the small and women-owned business communities via the partner organizations
• Opportunity to share program experiences and make new connections on Twitter via #ELEVATEbyFairfield
In the spirit of fueling entrepreneurship and innovation, one of the 20 businesses will be awarded a $5,000 grant at the end of the initiative. The honoree will be selected based on criteria that include her use of the Fairfield Inn & Suites space and her inventive application of the resources provided by the program.
"Fairfield Inn & Suites has had tremendous success as we've grown over the past 26 years," said Buckley. "That's why we've started ELEVATE fueled by Fairfield - by sharing our experience, functional design and resources, we're able to pay it forward to others to help make their dreams come true."
Participants will be able to reserve their meeting space via Workspace on Demand, which is a collaboration between Marriott International and LiquidSpace, a platform that allows people to instantly book workspace at a variety of participating venues, making it more accessible for these businesses to get the job done.
Applications for ELEVATE fueled by Fairfield will be accepted now through June 30, 2013. More details and official rules are available on the ELEVATE fueled by Fairfield site.
Join the conversation on Twitter: #ELEVATEbyFairfield.

Alex Hirsch '14 – This is the 5th week of the Business Immersion Program. I believe this is a great program because Wabash does not have a business major and this program allows for those who are interested in business to get a crash course on the different aspects and allows for those who are part of the program to explore which part of business they are most interested in. So far we have studied everything from finance to marketing. Beyond learning about the different types of business opportunities available, the BIP has also given us real life experience because we have working on different projects. We are working on a consulting project for the college. The goal for that project is to improve the Employment Self Help (ESH) system. The other major project is working on creating a business plan.
The business idea that we are currently developing is delivery service for restaurants that do not usually deliver. We have decided to locate our business in Hamilton County as there is no competition in the area and there is a high volume of restaurants as well. For example, our service would pick up your meal from Buffalo Wild Wings and deliver it directly to your door. At first, it seemed like a relatively simple idea but as we have gone into much more detail on the subject, we have discovered that the logistics of it are more sophisticated then first expected. The biggest problem we have encountered has been the pricing model and how to make the most money.
We gave our second presentation this past week. There is one more presentation at the end of the program and that is the presentation that really matters. Overall, this presentation went just okay. Like anything, it could have been better. Our thought thought was that we would rather make the mistakes now instead of during the final presentation on July 3rd. The hypothetical investors gave us lots of good constructive criticism on how to improve our business and our overall presentation. As you see in the picture here, all of the "investors" called us back into the room to let each group know what they did wrong as well as their strengths.
Overall, this program has been a great experience for me. Learning about the different aspects of business will prove to be invaluable for me in the future as I look at my potential career. I have made my share of mistakes but I hope to continue to be successful with the upcoming presentations.

Dershowitz is an over the edge liberal nut.
Comment by Arthur B. Levy — November 13, 2013 @ 3:36 PM
The problem is time and honesty. If Iran makes a deal, who is to say that they intend to abide by it? Will they instead open new facilities unknown to other nations and resume enrichment? Lastly, do we even have time to implement a deal before Iran breaks out? It sounds doubtful. Sill I don't have a spy agency at my finger tips to give me their best estimates, but based on the estimates of others; time may already be up. Is a weapon being built as we talk? Who really knows? We could all be happy with a deal and then see a mushroom cloud 4 months latter. The Bible however states that Iran is around in the middle of the 7 year tribulation, so it's not likely that they will start a nuclear war at this time. I wrote a small 6 or 7 page book that talks about what I believe the Bible states will take place soon as well as the potential trends I see at this time. I don't accept donations and it's free. It's a short read. I encourage you to have a look: http://www.booksie.com/religion_and_spirituality/book/richard_b_barnes/after-the-rapture-whats-next
Comment by Richard Barnes — November 13, 2013 @ 6:56 PM
When will Alan Dershowitz publicly admit that he backed the wrong candidate in 2012 by supporting President Obama as the Pro-Israel candidate? Alan Dershowitz influenced numerous Jews by his endorsement of President Obama in the 2012 election. Even if Iran obtains nuclear weapons and uses them against Israel, Alan Dershowitz probably will near admit that he made a huge mistake by supporting President Obama and indirectly aided and abetted in the destruction of Israel. Jewish blood will be on his hands!

The safety blocks the firing mechanism of a firearm to prevent it from being fired accidentally.
Firearm safeties make proper gun handling safer, but the only sure safety is a firearm with the action open.
(One exception to this rule is the Gevarm. 22 calibre rifle. This French-made semi-automatic rifle is ready to fire when the action is open.)
While featured in various styles according to the manufacturer, below you will find examples of the most common types of safeties.
The wing safety, also referred to as the three-position safety, is only found on bolt-action rifles. It is located at the rear of the bolt on the cocking piece of the bolt-action. It is usually the safest mechanical safety because it blocks the firing pin.
The lever safety is located behind the trigger. It prevents the firearm from being fired before the action is completely closed and locked. This type of safety blocks the trigger only. (Refer to Hammer at Half Cock).
This safety locks the trigger until the hammer is placed on full cock. It is the true safety of most lever-action firearms.
Step 1. Closed
IMPORTANT! Trigger must be pulled to move the hammer from FULL to HALF-COCK position. Make sure that you have full control of the hammer and that it does not slip from your grasp.

Perfect Girl
BY: SusanD
Manny was almost 29 years old. Most of his friends had already gotten married, and Manny just bounced from one relationship to the next.
Finally a friend asked him, "What's the matter, are you looking for the perfect woman? Are you THAT particular? Can't you find anyone who suits you?"
"No," Manny replied. "I meet a lot of nice girls, but as soon as I bring them home to meet my parents, my mother doesn't like them. So I keep on looking!"
"Listen," his friend suggested, "Why don't you find a girl who's just like your dear ole Mother?"
Many weeks past before Manny and his friend got together again.
"So Manny. Did you find the perfect girl yet. One that's just like your Mother?"
Manny shrugged his shoulders, "Yes I found one just like Mom. My mother loved her, they became great friends."
"Excellent!!! So,.... Are you and this girl engaged, yet?"
"I'm afraid not. My Father can't stand her!"

One week ago, the state of Vermont passed legislation allowing Physician Assisted Suicide (PAS) in its 'Patient Choice at End of Life' Bill. This Bill will protect physicians from criminal liability for prescribing a medication that will hasten a patient's death, under certain conditions and given certain safeguards. The legislative regime is relatively clear, and its comprehensible provisions can be applauded. Still some ambiguity exists overall about the distinction between PAS and euthanasia, as evidenced by the following headline: 'Vermont Assisted Suicide Bill: Vermont Gives Euthanasia the Green Light'. The legislation itself does not necessarily do a service to clarify these terms, in its reference to active euthanasia. In this blog post, I seek to clarify some of the legislative regime in Vermont and clarify some terminology around PAS and euthanasia.
Vermont is the third State that has legally permitted PAS, and is the first one to do so by law directly. Oregon and Washington legalized PAS respectively in 1994 (confirmed in 2006) and 2008 after referenda. Montana allowed PAS by a court judgment in 2009, but no Bill has been enacted yet. Vermont's Bill was crafted with the Oregon legislation in mind. Its current safeguards revolve around record keeping by the physician, its requirements that a patient needs to suffer a terminal illness and have less than six months to live, as well its requirements for a the written statement of a patient (next to two oral ones), and a concurring opinion from a second physician. These safeguards were a compromise to facilitate and speed up the process of the Bill. In 2016 these safeguards will be replaced, and PAS will be governed by professional practice standards, like in other areas of medicine (Provision 5292).
PAS needs to be distinguished from euthanasia, which is prohibited in the USA. In PAS, the physician provides the means to commit suicide or the information about how one can commit effective suicide, while the patient is the main actor. The patient self-administers the lethal doses of a drug that hastens death. In cases of euthanasia, on the contrary, the physician is the main actor, i.e. the physician who administers the euthanicum (a drug that induces/hastens the death of an individual).
The term Euthanasia has a clear definition in my world. My legal education in the Netherlands has left me no doubt about when euthanasia is at stake, at least according to the Dutch definition. Euthanasia is always based on the request of the patient, and only in cases where a physician actively administers a euthanicum, we speak of euthanasia. Controversially, euthanasia can be permitted in the Netherlands, provided that certain criteria are fulfilled. I will not go into the details of the Dutch legislation; you can find a substantial amount of information about this online. I direct you particularly to the criteria around suffering (unbearable suffering without prospect of recovery), the explicit need for a request of the individual (Without the patient's request, we would not speak of euthanasia) and the safeguards (2 physician requirement, reporting requirements). I will not either address the discussions whether euthanasia is right or wrong.
Ambiguity exists around the term euthanasia, especially beyond the Dutch legislation, in instances where the term is qualified. For example, references that distinguish between active and passive euthanasia, such as in the Vermont Bill, cloud the debate. Whereas active euthanasia is the administration of a lethal dose of medicine to the patient on his/her request, passive euthanasia has traditionally been connected to practices, such as the withholding of ventilation support for a patient based on the patient's request. The distinction between active and passive euthanasia rests on a distinction between acts and omissions. Yet, this distinction is unclear. It is equivocal, for example, what constitutes an act: Is the withdrawal of ventilation an act that induces the death of a person (a person needs to physically switch off the ventilator), or is the withdrawal just an omission: not doing anything and letting nature take its course? Further ambiguity exists around the meaning of hastening death; does the withdrawal of ventilation hasten death or are we just allowing the natural process of death to occur?
Critics challenge the usefulness of references to active versus passive euthanasia, and it has been claimed that these challenges have led to credibility of arguments around PAS. Passive euthanasia should be rephrased along the terminology of 'foregoing medical treatment'. Under this term, it is clearer that the withdrawal or withholding of ventilator support can be considered along the lines of individuals' right to refuse treatment, provided certain conditions are fulfilled. Every individual has a legal right and an ethical entitlement to refuse treatment, based on his/her autonomous wishes, and this includes the refusal of life support. Equating a patient's request to withhold or withdraw care to a form of euthanasia, i.e. passive euthanasia, would be undesirable and seems to be confusing. While euthanasia is not permitted in the USA, the American Medical Association and the House of Delegates of '74 explicitly permits the cessation of care based on the desires of an individual. "The intentional termination of the life of one human being by another -mercy killing - is contrary to that for which the medical profession stands and is contrary to the policy of the American Medical Association. The cessation of the employment of extraordinary means to prolong the life of the body when there is irrefutable evidence that biological death is imminent is the decision of the patient and/or his immediate family. The advice and judgment of the physician should be freely available to the patient and/or his immediate family."
Clarity in legislative regimes is laudable, regardless of their permissive or restrictive nature. Only clarity allows practitioners and individuals know what can and what cannot be done. The Vermont legislation is a step in the right direction, setting comprehensible provisions about physician assisted suicide. Its reference to active euthanasia, however, clouds the discussion. It risks creating confusion and leaving leeway for unclear terms and distinctions.

Don Johnson wrote on 06/05/13 6:05 AMI agree that Dr. Eijkholt's comments help clarify the legal distinctions between active euthanasia ("mercy killing"), PAS, and withholding/withdrawing life sustaining treatment.
I wonder however, if the press and the public don't sometimes conflate those terms and issues precisely because there is no universal agreement about the moral distinctions between them. (See James Rachels' famous essay "Active and Passive Euthanasia.")

Hotel Pennsylvania New York
Traveler Comments
This is a prime location in New York City for a hotel, being right across the street from Penn Station. It was very convenient to get to and I enjoyed the decor.
I was in town for the Westminster Dog show. The facilties for the animals amazed me and how wonderful everyone was with the dogs. However, for the price that we paid our room was very small, dingy and somewhat dirty. I did not make the reservation but a friend did and there was some mix up because the hotel did not know we were there for the dog show. We should have had another room. The room was also very hot, and we were unable to get the air on and had to prop the window up with the ironing board when we finally got it to open. The room was not comfortable.
it was just ok used because penn station is near buy
Great location at 34th st. A bit pricey but it is in Manhattan.
room did not seem clean, furnishings were shabby, bath definitely did not seem clean

Corys laying eggs!
6 Attachment(s)
I come into my office and as always glance at my tanks and I don't see my corys running around the bottom. I think oh know so I take a closer look and they are all over the walls of the aquarium. I have 6 corys, 4 peppered and 2 swartz. The largest cory is my peppered and now I see she's a she! The other 3 peppered are males bc they are running her crazy!! It looks as though she takes in the male semen in her mouth and then runs up and down the walls frantically then suddenly she'll leave an egg or two stuck to the glass. She is laying eggs everywhere! I included a few photos! In some of the close ups you can see the eggs in her little fin pouch! They are still at it too! Been going on now for about a half an hour or so.
first off, thats truly remarkable photography. really. im astonished.
second, my cories do that about every 2 or 3 weeks, though now I keep a betta with them and the little (expletive deleted) eats the eggs promptly. If you have just enough water movement to keep the eggs from getting moldy (air stone that I see, should help in the immediate vicinity) the eggs will hatch eventually, but I have had not so much success. I started with 5 I think, im up to 8!! I need to rehome them soon as its only a 10g :lol:
im happy for you! getting to watch cories spawn is a neat experience, and apparently fun for the whole shoal lol :)
yes it was definetly cool to see! And the photography thing, well I happen to be a photographer! That's the Olympus E5 combined with the Olympus 50mm f/2 macro lens! It really is a nice set up! So maybe, just maybe I'll have a few little corys running around huh? I do have movement in the water from the filter. I'll keep things posted if they do hatch! Thanks for the comments!
Fantastic photos of an event I've never seen like that before! My albino's have laid eggs again and I am trying to raise the fry at the mo. So many eggs hatched! :-)

Order of the Water Buffalo
Welcomes New Inductees
The Ancient and Honorable Order of the Water Buffalo inducted three new members at a luncheon event on Friday, November 18, at the CBA–CLE offices in Denver. This prestigious honor is bestowed on members of the CBA's Water Law Section in recognition of their contributions in the area of water rights.
The inductees were Jeris Danielson, former State Engineer; Leo Eisel, Consulting Engineer, and Judge Roger Klein, Water Judge for Water Division 1. Judge Klein was unable to attend the ceremony, so Eric Potondy, Klein's former law clerk, attended the event on his behalf. Attorney Bill Tourtillott was the Master of Ceremonies.
The induction ceremony was held during the Water Law Section's "Water Law 301" CLE program. More than seventy people were in attendance.
CBA Past Presidents Attend Annual Dinner

Names New Director
The Colorado Supreme Court Advisory Committee recently announced Barbara Ezyk as director of the newly created Colorado Lawyer Assistance Program (COLAP). Ezyk brings a wealth of legal and peer assistance experience to the position. During her sixteen years as a Colorado attorney and twenty-eight years as a licensed registered nurse, Ezyk has worked with professionals in need of assistance due to substance use and/or mental health issues.

New Legal Clinics Assist Colorado Veterans
Volunteers in Colorado Springs, Denver, and Fort Collins helped veterans and their families with legal issues during the CBA's Colorado Lawyers for Colorado Veterans inaugural free legal clinics on November 10 and 11. Attendees received information on topics such as veterans' resources, benefits, taxes, housing, and family law.
In Denver, approximately fifty veterans attended and more than sixty attorneys, paralegals, and law students volunteered. In Fort Collins, four volunteers, including two from the Colorado Legal Services ID Project, helped nineteen veterans with their legal issues and five veterans who needed assistance obtaining identification. At the Colorado Springs event, which was hosted by the El Paso County Bar Association, fifteen veterans sought legal assistance and twelve volunteers were on hand to help them. To volunteer for a clinic or to learn more about attorney volunteer training, contact Carolyn Gravit, CBA Director of Public Legal Education, at email@example.com.

Court Orientation for
New Colorado Lawyers Held in Denver
CLE Program for Young Lawyers Addresses
Practical Issues and Hot Topics in the Law
The CBA YLD hosted its annual CLE program on November 17 at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. Fourteen YLD members led the various presentations, which addressed practical issues and hot topics pertinent to young lawyers. Topics included "jury whispering," effective direct- and cross-examination, the changes to the rules of civil procedure under the Colorado Civil Access Pilot Project, appellate basics, and tribal sovereignty. The program also featured panel presentations on hanging one's own shingle, energy law, networking, mistakes young lawyers make, and ethical issues. More than eighty attorneys attended the full-day program.
Court in Session at Veterans Stand Down
On Thursday, November 3, homeless veterans who had open Denver County Court cases were be able to resolve their legal issues in a special courtroom during the Veterans Stand Down event in Denver. Stand Downs are held in various locations throughout the year as part of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs' efforts to provide services to homeless veterans.
Forty-nine cases were heard on November 3 by Denver County Court Judge Raymond Satter. City and municipal attorneys also attended the day-long event to assist veterans in the courtroom, and volunteers from the DBA were on hand to provide veterans information and referrals to organizations that offer free legal services in areas such as rental eviction, landlord–tenant issues, child support, and disability. Veterans who attended the Stand Down also received food, health checkups, clothing, and employment services.
Stacy Carpenter Joins RMCLC Board of Directors
The Rocky Mountain Children's Law Center, a nonprofit organization that provides legal advocacy for abused and neglected children, recently announced that Stacy Carpenter has joined the organization's Board of Directors. Carpenter is the Immediate Past President of the DBA and currently serves on the CBA Board of Governors. She also is a Fellow of the Colorado Bar Foundation and serves on the CBA Legislative Policy Committee. Among other accolades, Carpenter received the CBA Sue Birch Legislative Award in 2005 and was the DBA's 2003 Young Lawyer of the Year.

She represents clients on numerous commercial issues and contract disputes and regularly defends professionals in errors and omissions and malpractice claims. She received a BA from the University of Rochester and her JD from Northwestern University.
Reception Celebrates
Wheels of Justice and its Sponsors
On October 20, Wheels of Justice team members and sponsors attended an appreciation party for the 2011 Courage Classic at the Colorado Children's Hospital in Aurora. The Courage Classic is an annual three-day bike race across Colorado that benefits the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders (CCBD) at the Children's Hospital. The Wheels of Justice was the Courage Classic's number one fundraising team for the second year in a row, raising more than $290,000.
During the reception, the Wheels of Justice Leadership Council—Heather Purcell-Leja, Bradley Scott, and Aaron Bradford—thanked sponsors and MVPs with Courage Classic plaques and framed jerseys. Among the honorees was CBA Executive Director Chuck Turner, who received a framed jersey for the CBA's ongoing support of Wheels of Justice. A former CCBD patient, Kelsey Bohman, was the reception's guest of honor. Bohman spoke of her positive experience with the staff and facility when she received her oncology treatments at the Children's Hospital.
Strikes for Tykes
Benefits Community Action Network
On Saturday, November 5, the DBA's Community Action Network (CAN) Committee held its first annual Strikes for Tykes bowling event. Proceeds raised during the event benefit the Children's Outreach Project, a nonprofit therapeutic preschool and child-care center serving north Denver and the surrounding communities.
This year's fundraiser was held at Elitch Lanes in Northwest Denver. Fifty-five bowlers enjoyed a lunch buffet, three rounds of bowling, and a friendly competition. The team winner was Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP and the individual winner was Jordan Olsen. Approximately $4,725 was raised for Children's Outreach Project.
CJI Judicial Excellence for Colorado
Dinner Has Record Attendance
On Tuesday, November 1, more than 680 attendees turned out to honor four outstanding Colorado judges at the Colorado Judicial Institute's (CJI) ninth annual Judicial Excellence for Colorado Dinner. That is a record number of attendees for this CJI event. The honored jurists were: District Judge O. John Kuenhold from Southern Colorado, District Court Presiding Judge C. Jean Stewart from the Denver Probate Court, Judge Christine Carney from Larimer County, and Magistrate Stephanie Rubinstein from Mesa County. The keynote speaker was Jeffrey Toobin, CNN legal analyst and author of the best-selling book The Nine. During his speech, Toobin praised Colorado's merit selection and non-partisan retention election system, and discussed the history of the Supreme Court.
In addition to recognizing judicial excellence, the annual dinner event raises funds to foster excellence through education. Since the creation of the CJI Judicial Education Fund in 2002, more than $200,000 has been awarded to support continuing education for judges, magistrates, and full-time judicial department employees. Such grants have become even more crucial in recent years as cutbacks in the court system's state budget have eliminated many judicial education opportunities. For more information about CJI or to become a CJI member, visit www.coloradojudicialinstitute.org or contact the CJI at (303) 766-7501.
Interactive Program Educates
Students in Denver About the Judiciary
On October 14, a class of high school students at the Denver Center for International Studies took part in Judicially Speaking, a public education program that informs students about the role of the judiciary in the American legal system. Denver District Court Judge William Hood and Colorado Court of Appeals Judge Nancy Lichtenstein led the interactive program.
Taking on the role of the Colorado General Assembly, the students debated age limits, the significance of prior records, and what constitutes a serious crime. They also voted on a standard for when juveniles should be subject to adult penalties. Students then broke into small groups and applied their new law to real cases by ruling on how to try the juvenile defendants involved in serious crimes.
After making their decisions, the mock judges reconvened to share their rulings and discuss the importance of fairly and impartially applying the law to each case. Before concluding the program, Judge Hood and the students contemplated the characteristics of a good judge.
This was the second time the event took place in Denver area schools. Judges David Shakes and David Prince of the Fourth Judicial District started Judicially Speaking two years ago to help high school students in El Paso and Teller Counties better understand the American judicial system. For more information about the program, visit www.judiciallyspeaking.com.
Legal Aid Foundation
Hosts Donor Appreciation Party
On Thursday, November 3, CBA Past President David Johnson and attorney Edward Gleason hosted a Donor Appreciation Reception on behalf of the Legal Aid Foundation of Colorado. Johnson and Gleason are Legal Aid Foundation Trustees and Co-Chairs of the Foundation's El Paso County Campaign.
Approximately fifty guests attended the reception, which was held at the Country Club of Colorado at Cheyenne Mountain Resort. Attendees sampled hors d'oevres while listening to a legal aid client talk about the impact legal services had on the quality of her elderly mother's life. Remarks also were made by Colorado Supreme Court Justice Greg Hobbs, who thanked benefactors in El Paso County for their support of legal aid over the years.
DU Law Crowns Hoffman Cup Champions
The University of Denver (DU) Sturm College of Law recently crowned this year's champions of its annual Hoffman Memorial Trial Advocacy Cup. The Championship Round was presided over by U.S. Federal District Court Judge William Martinez and four scoring panelists. In a close, split-ballot final round, the team of Ashley Opfer and Brian Caplan prevailed over Katelyn Konecny and Chris Wilcox. For the second year in a row, Wilcox earned the Best Orator Award.
The Trial Advocacy Cup is hosted by DU's Advocacy Department and the student Moot Court Board. It is named for the late Daniel Hoffman, a DU alumnus and former DU Law School Dean. Dean Hoffman's family, including two of his grandchildren who are students at the law school, attended the event.

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Sitting in a cushioned folding chair in one of the saddest locker rooms he's ever been in, sophomore Daniel Bejarano was asked to look past the final score of Colorado State's final loss of the season and talk about the future.
He'll be a big part of it.
"Every year has been a new chapter for me, so every year has been motivation for me, and this is just a new chapter in the books," Bejarano said. "I can flip the page. We had a great season, a great year. We've got to close that up for next year. We have guys coming in, and some of us will have to step up and be leaders and try and figure out how to get back here next year. It's not going to be easy. I've been in the program already, so I know what it takes. We've just got to step up."
Basically, the entire bench is returning. Four of those players are Bejarano, Jon Octeus, Joe De Ciman and Gerson Santo. Those four got varying degrees of experience over the course of this season, with Bejarano wining the Mountain West sixth man of the year award.
Added to the mix are Jesse Carr, a senior who missed this season because of a torn ACL, and Dwight Smith, a junior who played two seasons before redshirting this season along with freshman guard Jordan Mason. CSU's recruiting class, signed during the early signing period last November, to this point includes Aurora Central guard Carlton Hurst, Elmhurst, Ill., shooting guard David Cohn, and former Rangeview High standout Marcus Holt.
That brings the roster to 10 scholarship players, meaning three spots remain open. The basketball regular signing period begins April 17 and ends May 15.
"We're going to be good," CSU coach Larry Eustachy said. "I'm big on track records, and I think if you look at what we've done as a staff over the years, we just keep getting better, which, you know, is going to be hard to do next year. But in the long term I think we should all be excited about where we're headed. We're not nearly done."
Those sentiments were echoed by senior guard Wes Eikmeier.
"Our young guys are great," Eikmeier said. "And they're going to continue where we left off."
Bejarano agreed.
"We have the right guys," he said. "We have a lot of guys who have been here already. We have guys who are motivated, I promise you I know they are. We have some guys that people really haven't seen what they can do. We have a lot to work for. But just don't doubt us that we'll get here next year."
Getting to exhale. From the day he was hired to Saturday night, it has been a whirlwind calendar year for Eustachy, who now plans to take some time to get to know his surroundings.
"I can't even tell you anything about Fort Collins except for where Sonny's (steakhouse) is and how to get from point A to point B, which is my house to my office," Eustachy said. "I'm looking forward to seeing the scenery and enjoying the people and getting to know people a little bit more. When you're coaching, you're in a coma, you're locked in, if you're doing your job."
Pitino props. Louisville coach Rick Pitino spent a ton of time talking up Colorado State, calling the Rams the best second-round game (really third round with the expanded field) he's coached against.
"Our respect level for Colorado State is off the charts," Pitino said. "That was as good a second-round game as I've seen. Only one other time did it rival that: We played Tom Davis at Iowa, and it reminded me of this, but we had great respect for them."

Monday morning Bay County Animal Control and a utility company helped Scooter get out of a tree.
Dogs chased him up the tree where he seemed unable to get down, going days without food and water. Animal Control says the kitty is healthy. His owner says Scooter seemed a little skittish at first, but after eating a lot of food he was fine.
"They put a pole on top of him so he couldn't go up and finally he jumped to a different tree, but not very high, and started to climb up, but they put a pole up there, kind of pushed him down, he got down and scampered away."
Hayes says he felt sorry for Scooter and is glad to have him safely at home.

21 years and over
Over the course of seven years and four LP's, The Thermals have tackled a variety of subjects with no small amount of passion and fervor. Religion, politics, death, these are some heavy themes! Yet The Thermals have irreverently run roughshod over these topics with excesses of moxie and gusto, the likes of which the post/punk/pop/power/etc. community had never before seen! Now, for their fifth LP, The Thermals have battled (and perhaps even conquered!) the deepest and darkest of all popular art themes- love.
Personal Life is about relationships. It's about the concept of a connection between two people - making it, breaking it, and faking it.
"Phantom" is a new song from Ridgewood, N.J., lo-fi ragamuffins Big Troubles, one that actually does away with the lo-fi tag completely. That's because the power-pop outfit, as part of non-profit Weathervane Music's series Shaking Through, were able to record in the song in a Philly studio with a team of engineers at their side. -- Pitchfork Forkcast
"...EULA is so filled with elements of pop and punk and blaring rock that it's amazing any of them still have eardrums left to help keep them in tune..." - Fensepost

PLANET: The Movie Trailer
An eye-opening look into how our love of meat and dairy is taking its toll on our health and the planet.
"PLANEAT: How to Feed a Planet" is a provocative challenge to our love of meat and dairy. Tracking the work of a group of scientists, doctors and environmentalists, the film forces us to confront the evidence that a heavily animal-based diet is bad for our health, the environment and the future of the planet. The film features the ground-breaking work of Dr. T Colin Campbell in China exploring the link between diet and cancer, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn Jr.'s use of diet to treat heart disease patients, and Professor Peter Singer's philosophy on how to feed an ever-burgeoning population in the midst of global warming. With the help of some innovative chefs and farmers, we are shown how the problems we face today can be solved, without simply resorting to a diet of lentils and lettuce leaves.Flag this Video

BSNB Volunteers in Action
Breast Cancer Awareness
During breast cancer awareness month, BSNB employees supported the Annual Mechanicville-Stillwater Breast Cancer Walk. In an effort to further support the cause, each Friday in October BSNB employees wore pink t-shirts to promote breast cancer awareness. Employees also had the opportunity to wear blue jeans to work when they made a donation to the Breast Cancer Walk.
First Day of School
BSNB Volunteers in Action members gathered at Malta Avenue Elementary School and the Wood Road Elementary School Complex in Ballston Spa to help guide children off the buses and into the building on their very first day of school!
Flag Collection
In July, BSNB welcomed the donation of worn, tattered, or faded flags at any of the bank's 10 branch locations. Members of the BSNB Volunteers in Action collected the flags and delivered them to a local American Legion where they were properly retired.
Electronics Recycling and Document Shredding Day
In partnership with Tech Valley Recycling and 3N Document Destruction, BSNB hosted an Electronics Recycling and Document Shredding Day. BSNB Volunteers collected items from the community for recycling and shredding, free of charge. Monetary donations were accepted at the event to benefit the American Red Cross.
Malta Avenue Roadside Cleanup
To further demonstrate BSNB's commitment to the environment and our community, BSNB volunteers worked together to collect debris that had been accumulating along the Malta Avenue roadside in Ballston Spa. The adopted roadside is cleaner and safer as a result of these efforts.
Rebuilding Together
In May, BSNB employees partnered with Rebuilding Together Saratoga County to aid in their Neighbors helping Neighbors project in Saratoga Springs. Volunteers contributed by helping with yard work such as raking, cleaning out a large barn, shoveling dirt, and building a patio and walkway for a home that serves and supports individuals with disabilities.
