Army Aviation Sees Change In Leadership
February 5, 2014
By Kari Hawkins, USAG Redstone
REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. -- The Army celebrated the careers of two of its aviation officers Jan. 24 with the retirement of Redstone Arsenal's senior aviator and the promotion of a 26-year career officer into the general ranks.
The 650-capacity Bob Jones Auditorium was packed by the Team Redstone community in the morning as then Col. Bob Marion was promoted to brigadier general with the help of his wife Lisa, their four children and several other family members. Marion is well-known at Redstone for his leadership within the offices of the Program Executive Office for Aviation. Among his different assignments there, he most recently served as the project manager for Cargo Helicopters before leaving in May 2013 to take on an assignment as the assistant deputy for acquisition and system management in the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology.
In the afternoon, the auditorium was packed again for a change of charter ceremony and a retirement ceremony as Brig. Gen. Bob Marion took over as the new program executive officer for aviation and Maj. Gen. Tim Crosby retired after a 34-year Army career.
During Marion's promotion ceremony, Heidi Shyu, the assistant secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology said ceremonies are part of the Army tradition.
In the Army's 238-year history, "multiple generations of dedicated men and women have risen through the ranks of Army service," Shyu said. "Promotion ceremonies are a particularly important part of that tradition because they provide an opportunity to recognize one's achievements and promise for the future in front of family, friends and fellow servicemembers.
"I am proud to be part of that tradition today -- as we all are -- in honoring Bob's service. It is important to note that this year, 2014, marks the 51st consecutive year there has been a Marion on active duty in the Army. Bob's dad joined in 1963, both of his brothers served on active duty and, now, the trend continues with Bob's promotion and potential for several more years on active duty."
Shyu recognized Marion's family members, including his wife Lisa, their four children, and Marion's parents and brothers, saying "I always like to emphasize that in the Army, our strength is our families -- they make us Army Strong. You have a real stake, an ownership in what we are celebrating today, the promotion of Bob Marion to the ranks of general officer in the United States Army."
Marion, Shyu said, is much like President Dwight Eisenhower, a historical figure that the aviator officer has long respected and appreciated.
"He admires that Eisenhower was a humble leader who didn't need to take credit for his accomplishments. He admires that Eisenhower cared about getting the job done, finding common ground, taking responsibility when things didn't go as planned, and always giving credit to his subordinates. He admires the selfless service of Eisenhower and the fact that he embodied our Army core values," Shyu said.
"Bob Marion has taken these admirable traits of President Eisenhower and made them his own as he moved through the Army ranks. These traits have contributed to his success and will continue to define him as he assumes increasing levels of leadership."
In his most recent assignment at the Pentagon, Marion worked for Shyu, taking on the challenges of leading the Red Team Study of the Long-Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle Program and was a key member of the Optimization Study team, which was designed to find the best balance of missions and personnel for the materiel enterprise.
Other career highlights have included serving as assistant project manager for Black Hawk production and fielding, establishing the product manager's office for Black Hawk modernization, participating in the Army's Training with Industry program for the Theater High Altitude Air Defense Program at Lockheed Martin Space Systems in Huntsville, serving as joint commander at the Defense Contract Management Agency-Boeing in Mesa, Ariz., where his primary mission was contract management and production of the AH-64D Longbow Apache, deploying to Operations Iraqi Freedom/Enduring Freedom as the forward representative for ASA(ALT) working contracting and procurement-related issues, and serving as the project manager for Cargo Helicopters at PEO Aviation.
"Bob's achievements are exemplary by any measure. But we do not promote on prior accomplishments, we promote for future potential as a leader in America's Army," Shyu said. "As Bob continues to lead some of the finest men and women in the military and in our great acquisition workforce, he will take on an even greater role in meeting the equipping needs of our Soldiers. I know he will do well. He has all the qualities of a great leader -- in the style of President Eisenhower -- self-confidence, integrity, an extraordinary work ethic and humility."
Marion thanked his family, friends and mentors who attended his promotion ceremony, saying "this is about all of you, all my family and friends, all our partners in industry, all of our partners across this post and in the Pentagon, all of us pulling together and getting things done."
That team also includes the employees of PEO Aviation, a fact that was emphasized throughout Marion's promotion ceremony and then again during the change of charter and retirement ceremony for Crosby.
"You have been meeting our war fighters' urgent needs around the world 24/7," Shyu said. "You labor long hours with a dedication to duty that comes only with knowing that your program, your project, the technology that you provide enables the latest capabilities to our aviators, it helps us to provide air dominance, and most importantly, it helps us to save lives. You provide the aviation capability that the rest of the world wants."
She said the employees of PEO Aviation have "done an absolutely superb job strengthening the inseparable link and solidifying the trust between Army aviation and the ground forces they support."
Crosby has led that effort for more than five years and was the deputy program executive officer prior to becoming its lead executive in December 2008. He led a workforce of more than 3,000 civilian, military and contract personnel, providing overall direction to eight project offices, which include: Apache Attack Helicopters; Unmanned Aircraft Systems; Utility Helicopters; Fixed Wing Aircraft; Cargo Helicopters; Aviation Systems, Armed Scout Helicopters and Non-Standard Rotary Wing Aircraft. These project offices are responsible for life cycle management of all Army aviation product lines and weapon systems.
During the last fiscal year alone, Crosby was responsible for effectively balancing requirements while executing an annual aviation budget of more than $7.5 billion.
But more than anything, Crosby is known for the passion he has for Soldiers, and how he has used that passion to improve conditions for the Soldier on the battlefield, Shyu said.
"Tim has been described as a Soldier's Soldier, unparalleled in his passion for championing Army aviation and the Soldier in every decision. His mantra is 'focus on relieving the burden on the Soldier,'" she said.
Crosby is a combat veteran, dual-rated master aviator, and the only remaining active duty aviator who has flown all the Chinook models in the Army, from A to F. He was a pioneer of Soldier Focused Logistics, which evolved into what is now known as Life Cycle Management.
During his time at PEO Aviation, two additional project offices were stood up during his leadership of PEO Aviation, one for Fixed Wing and the other for Non-Standard Rotary Wing Aircraft; and the PEO was recognized by senior Army leaders as having the best and most well-managed portfolio, and the best coordinated PEO from science and technology to program development to sustainment.
"It all boils down to having great people. … Our civilians have a passion for giving something back, for being selfless for our Soldiers," Crosby said.
"I was just a barking dog. What it boils down to is having great people who care about Soldiers. … You find the way forward. It's people like you who share a passion. My job was defending the passion of my people."
Crosby oversaw Army aviation requirements during a time of increased demand for aviation assets in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the establishment of Army aviation as the critical enabler on the battlefield. During his tenure, the Army fielded roughly 1,070 rotary wing aircraft and 3,070 unmanned aircraft systems across the services. Crosby championed acquisition streamlining and reform; recognized the need to build acquisition strategies that had the ability to upgrade as technology progressed; and led his large, complex portfolio and team with both discipline, and a great spirit and humor, Shyu said.
"There is no question in my mind that his contributions will shape Army aviation's dominance for decades to come," Shyu said. "Army aviation is his passion. Tim wants to continue contributing to Army aviation and supporting Soldiers for as long as he lives. … Tim Crosby spent a lifetime leading by example. His service has been truly extraordinary. His legacy is lasting."
As the new PEO for aviation, Shyu said Marion will build on that legacy of accomplishments.
"His mission is to maintain a total Army perspective while managing all systems assigned to him -- rotary and fixed wing, unmanned aircraft systems and other key systems," she said.
"He must develop, acquire, test, integrate and field programs while managing and balancing cost, schedule, performance and risk, ensuring that Army aviation continues to be the best in the world … balancing all of that in a fiscally challenging environment. … He is an excellent choice to lead this program executive office and build on its achievements."
While Marion admitted he is not the outspoken leader that Crosby is known to be, he will bring the same level of passion to his new assignment as his predecessor.
"PEO Aviation has such a proud reputation for serving Soldiers, and we will continue with that tradition," he said. "General Crosby has so embodied and established that as our culture. I do promise to bring the same passion and commitment to serving Soldiers as General Crosby did. … You can count on this organization because the culture he established will continue."

A Broad Band UV-B in the treatment of Vitiligo
Seventeen patients (9 males, 8 females) between ages of 10
to 40 years were treated with
broad band UV-B twice a week by Waldmann's UV 7001 K unit. Eleven patients received
25-44 (mean 33) exposure of UV-B over 4-6 months. Repigmentation was observed in 8
(72.7%) out of 11 patients and remaining 3 showed no response. Repigmentation was
diffuse and to the extent of 10-25% only and none of the patients had satisfactory cosmetic
improvement. It was concluded that broad band UV-B given twice a week over 4 months
was not effective in vitiligo.

O. Further evaluation of Dexamethasone Cyclophosphamide Pulse therapy in pemphigus.
P. Evaluation of punch grafting in halo naevi with/without limited vitiligo.
Evaluation of PCR in the diagnosis of cutaneous tuberculosis
(Microbiology, Pathology
and Biostatistics).
The laboratory diagnosis of
tuberculosis rests on the direct demonstration of Mycobacterium
tuberculosis in smears or biopsies and culture of the organism. However, because most type
of cutaneous tuberculosis are paucibacillary, it is often difficult to demonstrate or grow the
organism from the skin. Over the last few years, some reports have documented the use of
PCR in identifying M. tuberculosis DNA in lesions of cutaneous tuberculosis. However, the
test has not been prospectively evaluated in the diagnosis of the disease. We performed PCR
using primers and probes based on the published sequence of immunogenic protein MPB64,
a gene unique to the M. tuberculosis complex. The test was performed in 64 cases and 45
controls. For the purposes of this study, cases were defined as patients who had all of the
following: skin lesions morphologically suggestive of cutaneous tuberculosis, a positive
Mantoux test, skin biopsy showing granulomatous dermatitis and a clinical response to
standard anti-tubercular therapy. Controls were defined as those patients who showed clinical
and/or biopsy findings definitely indicative of a diagnosis other than cutaneous tuberculosis.
Eighteen out of 64 cases and 11 out of 45 controls showed a positive result on PCR. Thus,
the test had a
sensitivity of 28.1% a specificity of 75.6% and a likelihood ratio of a
result of 1:1. PCR for cutaneous tuberculosis does not appear to be a useful test in our hands.
The search for a reliable diagnostic test for cutaneous tuberculosis must continue.
B. Clinical evaluation of the efficacy and safety of topical butenafine in comparison with topical
clotrimazole in tines cruris and tines corporis (Microbiology, Laboratory Medicine).
Butenafine hydrochloride is a new
benzylamine derivative which has primary fungicidal activity
against dermatophytes. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of butenafine in comparison with
topical clotrimazole in the treatment of tinea cruris and tinea corporis in patients attending the
skin OPD at our hospital during the study period (February to December 2000). All patients
who fulfilled the inclusion criteria for the study were randomly allocated to treatment with butenafine
once daily for 2 weeks or clotrimazole twice daily for 4 weeks in a double
blind manner.
Clinical examination and microscopy of potassium hydroxide preparations of scrapings and
culture for
dermatophytes were conducted at baseline and at 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6
and 8 weeks following initiation of therapy. Efficacy was evaluated by the presence of mycological
and clinical cure. Adverse reactions, if any, were recorded at each visit. Seventy-five patients
were enrolled into the study, 37 were in the butenafine group and 38 in the clotrimazole group.
Fourteen patients in the butenafine group and nine in the
clotrimazole group were lost to follow-up
. The sign and symptom score declined significantly in both the groups. At the end of 8 week the
number of patients showing mycologic cure (on KOH preparation) in the butenafine and clotrimazole
treatment groups was 20/22 patients and 27/28 patients respectively. Three patients in each group
showed relapses after treatment cessation. Butenafine 1% cream is as effective as topically
applied clotrimazole 1% cream in the treatment of tinea cruris and corporis with the advantage
of once-daily application and shorter duration of treatment.
C. A two-step schedule for the treatment of actinomycotic mycetomas (Microbiology)
Actinomycotic mycetomas usually respond slowly to treatment with antibiotics. In an attempt to
hasten clinical resolution, we used a 2-step regimen consisting of
an intensive phase of therapy
with penicillin, gentamicin and co-trimoxazole for 5-7 weeks followed by maintenance therapy with amoxycillin and co-trimoxazole. Seven patients were treated, all of whom showed significant
reduction in discharge and swelling after the intensive phase. Maintenance therapy was continued
until the lesions completely healed clinically and upto 6
months beyond that maintenance therapy
was given for 6-16 months (mean 10.7 months), and patients remained free of disease during a
mean post-treatment follow up of 6-4 months. The other 2 patients have also responded
satisfactorily and continue to receive maintenance therapy. Side effects necessitating a
modification of the treatment schedule occurred in 2 patients but reversed on
stopping the
responsible drugs. This treatment schedule produces a rapid clinical response during the initial intensive phase and promotes compliance with the longer maintenance phase of treatment necessary to achieve a complete cure.

Remember Leonardo DiCaprio's little werewolf movie, the one he's going to produce with Catherine Hardwicke directing? Things are moving forward with that production, and according to the LA Times, Amanda Seyfried is one of the names they're looking at. Seeing that no other names are mentioned in the piece, she could very well be the top name in contention -- albeit an older, Beverly Hills 90210 sort of casting choice.
Titled The Girl with the Red Riding Hood, the project is a modern spin on the classic Grimm story: "The story is an update of Little Red Riding Hood, with the requisite dark/dangerous/romantic elements that can appeal to Twilight fans -- while also attracting audiences who simply like the fairy tale." Yes, due to the werewolf element and the fact that it's based on teens, the Times positions it all in a Twilight world. That's fair, but this is one project that seems more based in something else. Aside from the solid source material, "The script has gotten high marks from power players around town, who describe it as elevated genre material a la this weekend's Shutter Island." Wouldn't it, therefore, be more precise to say this could be due just as much to The Wolfman as it is to the shirtless New Moon wolves?
The piece goes on to discuss that this feature doesn't have the trio of Twilight stars, "but then those stars were made by Twilight, not the other way around." Perhaps if this was the early 2000s, when Seyfried had done mostly soap opera work, or 2004 after Mean Girls, or 2006 after Veronica Mars, I'd buy Seyfried as the next Kristen Stewart. But while not getting accosted by fans on a daily basis, she does have the recognizable name: the Needy girl in Jennifer's Body, Sarah from Big Love, and to more mainstream audiences, the lead of the big money makers Mamma Mia! and Dear John.
So, possible further fame and maybe a little ComicCon craziness if there's a lusty co-lead for the ladies? Sure. The next Kristen Stewart? I give Seyfried more credit than that, as more star power in a new project than the next big thing. You?

The swimming and diving team moved up to fifth on day two of the Pac-12 Championships in Federal Way, WA as the Bruins tallied 12 lifetime-bests, 24 season-bests and seven NCAA "B" cut times. Stanford leads with 462 points, followed by Cal (426.5), USC (390), Arizona (385) and UCLA (341.5).
Twelve Bruins competed in event finals on Thursday evening as Anna Senko, Andrea Reigel and Kathryn Murphy competed in A finals, and divers Emma Ivory-Ganja and Paulina Guzman competed in the final of one-meter.
Lauren Baker and Monica Dornick started the night off with strong swims in the C final of the 500 free as Baker swam a lifetime-best of 4:48.49 to finish 18th and Dornick swam a season-best of 4:49.61 to place 20th.
The 200 IM was a big event for the Bruins as four lifetime-bests were swam in the night finals. Senko and Reigel were both competing in the A final and both women posted lifetime-bests, NCAA "B" qualifiers and improved marks on the UCLA all-time top-8. Senko was sixth with a time of 1:58.48, moving her to No. 2 all-time in school history. Reigel moved to third all-time with her top swim of 1:59.05 as she finished seventh overall.
In the B final of the 200 IM, Noelle Tarazona swam the No. 6 time in school history with her 12th-place swim of 1:59.86. Laurence Delisle finished 13th as she swam 2:00.12, but posted a season-best of 1:59.97 in the prelims. Both Tarazona and Delisle swam NCAA "B" cut times. In the C final, Karoline Sanderud finished 24th with a lifetime-best of 2:02.01.

Seven-time Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher is in critical condition in a coma after a skiing accident in the French Alps, a hospital in the southeast French city of Grenoble said on Sunday.
The 44-year-old German "was suffering a serious brain trauma with coma on his arrival, which required an immediate neurosurgical operation," the hospital said.
He underwent immediate brain surgery but remains in critical condition, Grenoble University Hospital Center said.
Schumacher fell and hit his head on a rock on Sunday while skiing off-piste at the exclusive Meribel resort.
The director of the resort, Christophe Gernigon-Lecomte, said that Schumacher had been wearing a helmet and was "conscious but a little agitated" immediately after the accident.

"Rose Maddox is finally getting her due for paving the way for female singers through her work with The Maddox Brothers and Rose which took place years before Kitty Wells achieved fame. Based in California, the band, consisting of Rose, her brothers and a few sidemen, played intense, fiery music that anticipated rockabilly a decade before it emerged. The Maddox Brothers & Rose Volume 2 America's Most Colorful Hillbilly Band (Arhoolie 437) consists of 30 songs, 23 from the band's postwar recordings for Four Star Records, seven from acetates of unreleased performances. This set complements Volume 1, assembling more of this seminal West Coast music. Even on ballads like 'No One Will Ever Know' Rose's vocal intensity is unbelievable. The material here is equally intense, featuring Fred Maddox's slapping bass and throbbing lead guitar from Roy Nichols and other sidemen. The band fairly burns out on gutbucket numbers like 'Texas Guitar Stomp,' a psychotic demo recording of 'Cherokee Maiden' and 'New Mule Skinner Blues' (which was listed on Volume 1, but, due to a programming mistake, not included). Sound problems are absent due to George Morrow's excellent remastering of this set."

"In its next phase, PEPFAR programs will support a comprehensive, whole-of-government approach in many countries, to increase awareness, reduce stigma, and get services to people at earlier stages. We must support services that are open and accessible to all, regardless of HIV status, sexual orientation, or gender. We will work to end the discrimination and marginalization of most-at-risk populations." — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
The U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) was launched in 2003 to combat global HIV/AIDS, and is the largest commitment by any nation to combat a single disease in history. Under PEPFAR, the U.S. Government has already committed more than $25 billion to the fight against global HIV/AIDS.
Country-Level Leadership for a Sustained Response
America is committed to making sure global health investments are lasting. To achieve this end, the U.S. is placing a renewed emphasis on supporting partner country ownership of AIDS programs and ensuring the sustainability of local efforts. This emphasis will also maximize our development efforts and expand opportunity to more people in more places around the world.
PEPFAR will increase support for partner government capacity to plan, oversee and manage programs; to deliver quality services with the participation of local civil society and communities; and ultimately, to finance health programs. Strong national government commitment is essential because each government is ultimately responsible for promoting the health of its population.
The Administration and the Global Health Initiative
President Obama has committed to spending $63 billion over six years on international health activities under the Global Health Initiative. This is a stunning level of investment and a demonstration of this Administration's strong commitment to improving health in the developing world.
The Global Health Initiative will continue America's commitment to priorities like HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria, and will integrate current programs with those that address maternal and child health, family planning and neglected tropical diseases.

Ultimate Integration
Tying Together a 35,000-square-foot Home
When Tony Harper, the managing director of T & T Automation Ltd., was hired to handle all the a/v and automation for a sprawling 35,000-square-foot residential compound in Vancouver, Canada, it's fair to say that the word "imposing" crossed his mind.
Thankfully, with T & T's roster of highly trained professionals and its vast resume of elite technological and installation experience, the word "impossible" did not.
"At the time, this estate was one of the biggest projects we had ever worked on," Harper says. "The design process for the overall automation system took three full months."
The client's mandate, he continues, was "if it could be integrated, automated or controlled, it should be included in the plan, but not just included—it had to be executed well with the best technology available."
This extraordinary estate home—loaded with 31 touch screens, 48 zones of audio, 32 zones of video, more than 1,000 lighting circuits, 240 window coverings, 24 flat-screen televisions and more than 100 keypads—has consumed the energies of seven T & T employees for three years to date (the completion for all of the estate's external buildings is estimated to take another year).
"The coolest thing was that the client wanted the project done properly—there were no compromises," Harper adds.
From the get-go, the client had his wish list in hand: He wanted numerous touch screens and wireless remotes throughout the house, as well as extensive voice and data networking, a full-blown home theater, and an elaborate security system so he could reference the status of any window or door on the property with ease. After all, only two people—the client and his wife—reside in the capacious home.
So if each spouse is working on opposite ends of the property with thousands of square foot in between, the husband can, for example, communicate with his wife via the home's extensive intercom and paging system. In addition, he can also ensure that his wife is safe by monitoring the security cameras and checking to see if any locked doors have been breached.
Not surprisingly, the monstrosity of this estate dictated the complexity of the huge, complex behind-the-scenes automation system. "Because of its size, the house is constructed in commercial-grade building techniques and electronics," Harper says, adding that his team connected all of the inner-building technological workings via fiber-optic cabling. "It's a massive automation system—the residential equivalent of a building management system.
"Because the house is so big, the client wanted to perform intercom and paging functions from any touch screen, and he wanted to be able to check for open windows anywhere in the house," Harper continues. "The system lets him have a constant watch over the status of the entire residence from any area—without the need to physically check every window, door, gate or HVAC zone. This is truly an automated home on a vast scale."
Integrating hundreds of window coverings and doors, a complex HVAC system with more than 1,000 points, and an extensive wireless voice and data network required meticulous attention to detail—both major and minor. So to do it right, the T & T team carefully mapped out every facet of every technology-involved area in advance. In fact, they spent 800 hours designing and documenting all of the major technological points in the home with detailed drawings so there would be no question about where to put what.
"[Those drawings] became the glue that held together all of the technologies, and also the technology contractors," Harper says. The company invested 2,500 hours of programming for the elaborate system and more than 3,000 hours of installation time.
More daunting than documenting and designing the system was making hundreds of automation controls extremely easy to use. "The touch screen's user-interface had to be nothing short of outstanding," Harper says, adding that the firm's custom creation is based on icons instead of word-driven directions.
For example, click on any of the touch screen's icons—the television, curtains, a light bulb or a security camera—and then select the area of interest, from the carriage house to the conservatory, the guest house or any of the main home's three floors. From there, you can do what you want: turn on or off any television; determine which windows are open and which doors are locked or unlocked (green indicates closed, red is open); check on the status of the radiant heat or forced air; lock specific doors with the touch of a button when leaving the house or entertaining guests; or determine when a locked door has been bypassed.
"The interface is designed to constantly provide the home's status across all major sub systems," Harper says of the icon-driven system. "The idea was not to fill the screen with traditional buttons or words, but to make it precise to navigate. It's a lot of control in a very complex system.
"The client wanted the system to run the house for them," Harper continues. "What we bring to the party is how to make it all work. T & T is particularly good at integrating complex systems and providing simple, intuitive interfaces to our customers."

Now that Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is in theaters, those moviegoers who saw the first movie but haven't been following news about the latest chapter in Columbia Pictures' franchise based on Marvel Comics' demonic anti-hero might be a little confused, and rightfully so. After all, Academy Award-winning actor Nicolas Cage returns as Johnny Blaze, a man cursed to share his soul with the entity known as the Ghost Rider, but just about everything else is different, from Ghost Rider's origin to his look and his powers. What's up with that?
In a recent interview with GeekChicDaily, daredevil directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor (Crank movies) explained how Spirit of Vengeance is a "re-quel" and not a sequel or complete reboot, discussed the Rider's new look and revealed that Cage performed in skull-face to get into character and intimidate "the hell out of the other actors."

June 29, 2014
If you know what your car engine sounds like when running normally, you will instantly pick up early signs of mechanical problems. If you know the sound your baby makes when he's hungry, you will immediately recognize a cry of pain. Departure from pattern is a warning sign.
In forensic accounting, false expense submissions are often picked out be cause the culprit tends to make up numbers randomly. However, in the real world there are predictable patterns regarding the occurrences of various digits (The interested can pursue this phenomenon by exploring Benford's Law). Departure from predictable patterns alerts us to something possibly significant.
The Lord's language, Hebrew is a beautifully precise language, often conveying not only the meaning of the word but also the emotion behind the meaning.
Consider, for instance, the word "perhaps"; on the surface, a simple word. It indicates that something may or may not happen.
Now consider these two sentences:
Looking at the man she loved, Jane wondered to herself,
"Perhaps he will propose to me this evening."
Tom ruefully contemplated his dismal sales reports and realized that perhaps he faced termination.
From the point of view of Tom and Jane's emotions, those two underlined words mean two very different things. Jane hopes that something wonderful will happen while Tom dreads the possibility of something awful happening.
However, in Hebrew, there are two different words for perhaps. The word ULai is used in circumstances when the speaker devoutly wishes for the event to occur, while the word PeN is used when he hopes it won't.
Perhaps (ULai) there are fifty righteous people in the city [of Sedom]... -(Genesis 18:24)
...now let us go there, perhaps (ULai) he'll tell us the road... -(I Samuel 9:6)
And from the tree in the middle of the garden, God said you shall not eat of it or touch it, [or else] perhaps (PeN) you'll die. -(Genesis 3:3)
Come let us deal wisely with him [or else] perhaps (PeN) he'll multiply and when war comes he will join our enemies... -(Exodus 1:10)
Once we understand this difference, we can be alert for any examples in Scripture when it appears that the wrong word is being used.
When Abraham dispatches his Chief of Staff, Eliezer, to find a bride for his son, Isaac, we spot such an unexpected usage.
Abraham directs Eliezer to travel to his birthplace and bring back a bride. Eliezer reasonably inquires what is to be done in the event of a problem.
...perhaps the woman will not be willing to follow me to this land... -(Genesis 24:5)
Since this would be a most undesirable outcome, we'd expect Eliezer to have used the word PeN. Yet, inexplicably he says ULai.
This informs us that deep down, Eliezer desired his mission to fail. He subconsciously hoped that no girl would come back with him to marry Isaac.
Why? Ancient Jewish wisdom teaches that Eliezer had a daughter of marriageable age. He was harboring the hope that his master, Abraham, would say, "Eliezer, you have a lovely daughter, I have a wonderful son..."
When Abraham didn't suggest this, Eliezer forlornly held one remaining hope. Perhaps no woman would be willing to accompany him to Canaan. Perhaps then Isaac would marry his daughter.
Abraham's next words dashed his hopes by making clear that Eliezer's daughter was not an option for Isaac. It is to the credit of Eliezer that after this big disappointment, he nonetheless carried out his mission faithfully and successfully.
Once we know the general rules, any departure from those rules attracts our attention like a flaring Fourth of July firework rocket arcing through a dark night sky.
For this reason it pays to know the rules; knowing how the world REALLY works makes it easy to spot exceptions. Spotting exceptions helps provide early warning of forthcoming problems whether in business or in social interactions. Forty rules of how the world REALLY works form the basis of my new book Business Secrets from the Bible-Spiritual Success Strategies for Financial Abundance. Join my many friends who have already elevated the trajectory of their earnings. Loving money is a bad idea but making money is wonderful. I'd like to see you (or someone you care for) make more money. Can I send you your own copy of Business Secrets from the Bible?

Moultrie, Allen remain out for Sixers vs. Bobcats
The Sixers on signing Dewayne Dedmon to 10-day deal
Lavoy Allen (left) has missed the Sixers' last two games. Arnett Moultrie hasn't played at all this season. (USA Today Images)
The past couple days the Sixers, when their practices concluded, had plenty of big men on the court shooting free throws and participating in other shooting drills.
All were accounted for at Wednesday's morning shootaround, but Brett Brown shared that his frontcourt depth is still depleted and two players who are getting close to returning -- Arnett Moultrie and Lavoy Allen -- will not be available to play when the Sixers host the Bobcats at 7 p.m.
"Arnett is not available. Lavoy is not available. We will roll out our new recruit 'Double D,' we will go with him," Brown said, referring to 7-footer Dewayne Dedmon, who was signed to a 10-day contract Tuesday (see story).
Moultrie has been sidelined all season following ankle surgery on Sept. 26. When the Sixers went West after Christmas, Moultrie made the trip and on New Year's Eve played his first five-on-five in three months.
Moultrie was hopeful that when the Sixers returned home he would get cleared for game action but that has not happened.
"It is just for fitness reasons with Arnett. There are some medical tests and fitness tests that he has to pass so we don't re-injure him," Brown said. "It is for his best interest. I know he is excited to go. I am excited to see him play but there is criteria with regards to body-weight goals and fitness tests that just have not been met, and that is fine, we will keep moving forward.
"To go this duration and shortcut it and re-injure him would just be reckless and irresponsible, so we are going to be patient with him.
Allen has a sore calf that will keep him sidelined for a third straight game, but his timetable is more promising.
"Lavoy is probably closer than Arnett," Brown said. "I think we will see Lavoy this weekend."
The Sixers host the Heat on Friday and play at Chicago Saturday night.

Although quite political, the second story-arc (as they felicitously call a plot in comics land) from Willingham's Fables comics isn't a version of Orwell's political parable. In it the scene shifts from the New York enclave of the human Fableland exiles to the upstate farm their animal and insufficiently human-appearing fellows inhabit. Snow White, who runs things for King Cole, makes her biannual farm visit, with fractious sister Rose Red in tow. There they find manager Weyland Smith nowhere in evidence and many nonhuman Fables talking up repatriating Fableland by force. What has actually happened is a still-covert coup led by animal-rights-spouting revolutionary Goldilocks. Snow and Rose get significantly up a creek before learning what's afoot from loyal Reynard, who, though a genuine fox, isn't above ogling those of other species. Despite some grisly developments, including a black-hand-style murder and a nearly successful assassination, this is about as much fun, if as conventional-comics looking, as Fables: Legends in Exile [BKL F 1 03].

Isles of Scilly, England "I've been in the dungeon for 23 years!"
Thus proclaimed Dave Huddy, explaining to me how he came to live on tiny St. Mary's (pop. 1,600) on the Isles of Scilly, inhabited since the Stone Age.
Known as "Dungeon Dave," his first visit to Scilly (pronounced "silly," which means "blessed" or "holy") was for his sister's wedding in 1986.
Hailing from Liverpool, Huddy recalls spotting the island's beauty as he arrived by ferry "for just the weekend." Now he tends bar at the popular, 400-year-old Star Castle hotel's Dungeon Bar, which once housed prisoners. The unique, walled Star Castle, built in 1593 for Scilly's defense during Queen Elizabeth I's reign, has been a hotel since 1933.
Barely three miles long and two miles wide, St. Mary's is the largest of five inhabited islands (with a total population of about 2,000) among more than 200 remote islands and rocks southwest of the English mainland, 28 miles off the coast of Land's End.
It's hard not to be charmed by this gorgeous, green area with flowers, vivid blue seas, colorful sunsets and fresh air. The islands thrive on a temperate climate, the warmest spot in Britain.
I had just arrived for my first visit — after taking a relaxing 5-hour train ride from London to Penzance, then 20-minute taxi ride to the Land's End Airport. Joining Day Trippers and those staying several days, I hopped a 16-passenger Seabus prop plane for the 15-minute flight to St. Mary's. (Flights from several other cities in England — and helicopter service — are also available).
It was a perfect day — a magic carpet ride as we left the mainland, flew over the dramatic sea, then arrived on St. Mary's: lush, green farmland and meadows with bright yellow daffodils. I even spotted rainbows.
"It's a very different life here," pointed out Robert Francis, managing director of the family-run, luxurious Star Castle hotel, as he drove me from the airport. "We don't lock our houses, we leave keys in the car, children can run around."
Sounds like paradise to me!
"Scillonians are fiercely independent," he continued. "Most of life here revolves more around boats than cars. Everybody gets around by boats and walking — we just love the peace and tranquillity. Visitors from overseas tend to do London; this end of England — Cornwall, Scilly — really is unknown. It's a special place. There's no pollution here at all; the water and air are so clear."
As we drove through the narrow streets of Hugh Town, the capital and city center (which boasts shops, a post office, museum, three churches, four pubs, several restaurants) — I noticed some older men lined up on a street corner, wearing jackets, hands in pockets, patiently waiting for the news agent to open. They were there to buy newspapers — which arrive from the mainland every day but Sunday, when there are no flights. (There's also no ferry service during the winter months — which, prior to regular air service and the Internet, could make the islands especially isolated.)
In 2011 a new primary-secondary school was opened here by Queen Elizabeth II. There's also a health center, three doctors, one dentist, one vet.
But no McDonald's, no shopping malls, no cinema.
St. Mary's is dotted with artists' studios, vacation homes, B & Bs, and guesthouses. Tourists can't rent cars here but "Scilly cars" — golf carts — and bikes are available to traverse the nine miles of narrow country roads. Walking trails are also a popular way to get around.

Black shoes with the same metallic-like shine
to it. High heels with a singlt strap over the instep of your
foot. Then if you get a rhinestone choker, you can accessorize
it by having the same rhinestones over the strap. A clutch
handbag with the same color rhinestone scheme. A simple pearl
necklace and drop earings. That dress is already very pretty
so you don't really need too much extra as far as accessories
goes, The fit is very nice and the heat molding makes them
even more tight which I like, Work shoes are designed to stand
heavy wear, to protect the wearer, and provide high traction.
They are generally made from sturdy leather uppers and
non-leather outsoles. The buckle and straps are positioned in
the right places and can be tightened hard if wanted but also
let quite loose without feeling sloppy in the shoe. Dress
shoes are categorized by smooth and supple leather uppers,
leather soles, and narrow sleek shape. Casual shoes
characterized by sturdy leather uppers, non-leather outsoles,
and wide profile, we should talk about those ones. Yes, the
summer's over and there's no other season that these are
suitable for wearing, but anyway I think I should review them.
Usually I don't like those type of shoes…I don't know if I
have mentioned that before, Here is another totally formal
shoe for you. This time it's typical heeled one. It may cause
you some problems if your work demands spending time walking,
because of the high sharp heels, but they will totally
complete any formal clothing you decide to wear, so it's
definitely worthy to have a pair in your. I'm sitll not sure
whether or not I like the blingtastic look of the shoes. I'm a
bit curious about the insoles. How much to the conform to your
feet? Is it possible to get hold of different types, or maybe
even exchange the existing ones with your own? How much of the
custom fit will be lost if doing so? The thing is, I have some
excessive pronation on my right foot, and in order not to
develop tendenosis or achilles tendonitis I rely pretty much
on my Specialized big insoles. Well, the right one anyway,
Ut will be most clever to take those shoes you are wearing
every day at home. hours of walking will demand the ones you
are most comfortable and enjoy being seen with, Make sure that
you bring shoes that you have already broken in. I don't care
how cute your brand new boots are, if they are not broken in,
don't bring them. Unlike one of the other suggestions posted
here, i do not think that you should be worried about wearing
sneakers as being a beacon for everyone to know that you are a
tourist - after all, you will have a HUGE backpack on! I
suggest teevas or berks and brown casual dress shoes for guys
that way you can get in the discos clubs Although I like
comfortable crosstrainers, they are heavy and require you to
bring more pairs of socks, and they will not grant you access
to clubs. Even if you bring teevas or berks, still bring some
socks because your feet will be cold sometimes. The key is
that shoes are heavy and the less weight that you bring, your
back will thank you. Oh yea, bring some real cheap lightweight.
Especially designed light shoes, The big carbon
heel cup is a nice feature both visually and should also help
to keep your heel planted stable in the shoe, The toes are
nicely protected against small scuffs when walking or clicking
out at a stop, but although the heels also have the blue
plastic protector it's not placed very conveniently. Form over
function, Inside the shoe there is what seems to be
strategically placed padding. Especially around the heel there
is some extra padding on the top that will help hold the heel
in place. A big part of the inside also has a silver mesh that
works anti-bacterial. The padding isn't overly soft or thick
in any place and it looks like it's made quite durable, but
that still has to be seen. There don't seem to be any annoying
stitchings on the inside though which is a big plus and the
overall finish also on the inside of the shoes is very good,
Shoes are bound to remain on your feet for longer than usual
for two reasons. First of all they are meant to be there all
day and at all times and secondly because you simply won't
want to take them off given their comforts, It is a little
more dressier than the regular style so I am able to wear them
to work and feel like I don't look too casual, the backing on
the ankle was not that sexy to me but the rest of it is plus.
All the style and durability that has become synonymous with
shoes, The insoles are moldable as well and will be placed in
the oven for one minute before you do the shoes. The hot soles
go in the shoe and you will have to take on the shoes and
stand up with them for about 5 minutes until the soles are
cooled down, After the soles are done the shoes. There is a
small kit of shims with the shoes that you can place under the
soles to make them follow the arch of your foot or toes better
if needed afterwards. From unique sport sandal designs, to
sleek golf shoes, to all-purpose comfort trainers, these
styles represent the height of performance style. With an
unparalleled durability, these unique designs are in a league
all their own, composed of only the finest materials,
handcrafted by artisans, with signature comfort as one of the
most comfortable shoes available. Feel the tradition and
style, premium leather upper, lining and insole Air Massage
insoles, Trendy and radical types of women's footwear, this
footwear maker expanded its offerings with their new You line
of shoes which consists of nine boots and shoes. The new shoes
are totally of a new design that will meet women's varying
taste in fashion, especially footwear. The new models in the
Croc's new You line include eight wedge-heeled models and one
lifted flat. These shoes are really one of a kind since they
are a combination of leather.

If it weren't for the rock-solid beats anchoring them, the songs from New York duo Phantogram would float away, buoyed on expanses of sweetly chiming guitars and singer Sarah Barthel's sighing vocals. It's equal parts trip-hop and dream-pop, though it has evolved by moving past the former's sense of melodrama and the latter's soft-focus melodies; it's an animal all its own. Phantogram can feel grounded and immediate enough to qualify as "catchy," but the hooks are surprisingly light, often pared down to a guitar laced heavily with echo, breathy cooing, and Josh Carter's head-nodding drums holding everything together. Just when you think a song has drifted too far away from its center, the pair introduces something odd or noisy enough to shock you out of your lull, a dark balance to the woozy beauty. Carter and Barthel have turned out a fully realized sound after only two EPs and a debut album, and if you haven't caught them on their past two trips through the Twin Cities, now's your chance. With Josiah Wolf of WHY? 18+.

Parents in disbelief over molestation probe
Wednesday, July 20, 2011
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Parents reacted with disbelief Tuesday as additional details emerged about child molestation allegations against the principal of a private elementary school in Northern California that was shut down by the state.
Police said Robert B. Adams, the principal and founder of Creative Frontiers School in the Sacramento suburb of Citrus Heights, is the focus of the investigation after several former and current students made allegations against him that date back 15 years.
The California Department of Social Services suspended the school's child day care and business licenses on Monday. An attorney for Adams denied the allegations.
A complaint filed by the department stated that several female students said Adams had touched them inappropriately and that at least one staff member at the school was aware of the complaints but did not report them.
Adams touched the students all over their bodies, including slipping his hand under their swimsuits and clothing, according to the complaint.
"On numerous occasions, respondent Adams touched female children's bodies under their shirts and down their pants," the complaint said.
It went on to say that Adams also would "seclude female children under a computer desk and lie down with them on a mat in his office."
Adams has not been arrested, and police say they are proceeding cautiously with the investigation.
"I have to point out Mr. Adams is not under arrest and an arrest warrant has not been issued," Citrus Heights police spokesman Jon Kempf said. "Due to the sensitive nature of this investigation, we want to move slowly and cautiously."
Kempf said there are more than 10 children involved but declined to say exactly how many or if they were part of the preschool or the elementary school.
The complaint also lists an office administrator, Cynthia Higgins, as being aware of some of the allegations but failing to report them. Attempts to reach Higgins were unsuccessful and telephone messages left at the school over two days were not returned.
Parents said they were surprised by the allegations against Adams, whom the children refer to as "Mr. Bob." Many of them were posting messages of support on the school's Facebook page.

Thunder shuts out Miners in SFL opener
Behind Austin Dick's two-hit shutout, the Rocklin High baseball team opened up a three-game series against Nevada Union with a 9-0 win Tuesday.
Dick commanded the game, striking out six batters and allowing no base-on-balls. The senior pitcher shut down the last 14 batters to end the game and seal the win.
Nevada Union's Nick Eccarius was to be the only Miners' runner to reach scoring position throughout the game after a single to start the third inning. After being joined by Noah Arriega, the pair were the last Miners to reach base in the game.
Dick's pitching performance was well supported as the Thunder offense tallied eight hits, four base-on-balls, and nine runs scored.
Batting out of the nine hole, Andrew Goyhentche nearly ended the game in the fifth inning, as the senior blasted a two-run triple. As the Miners hustled to get the ball back into the infield, Goyhentche tried to end the game with an inside-the-park, walk-off home run.
Unfortunately for Goyhentche, he was tagged out on his way back to third base.
Lead-off hitter Christian Bennett started off the game with a single and finished 2-for-3 with two runs scored and an RBI.
Leading all Thunder with three RBIs, Jake Faulkner drove in Bennett to start the game and doubled in the fourth inning.
Two more games remain in the series, as the Thunder travel to Nevada Union on Thursday and return for the finale at home on Saturday.
Miners 000 000 0 – 0

The number of loads on one major spot market has picked up since last week, but rates have headed south in two out of three main sectors.
The latest DAT Transcore Trendlines shows spot market freight volume increased the week of April 7 by 1.1% from the week of March 31 while capacity moved 10% higher.
Van rates during the period fell an average of 2.2% to $1.80 per mile while those for flatbeds decreased 0.9% to $2.15 per mile. Reefer rates were unchanged at $2.07 per mile
Also numbers for all of March show spot market freight volume increased 37% from the month before but is down 4.1% from March of 2012. Rates for the vans, flatbeds and reefers were all around 2.5% higher in March from the month before. In contrast compared to March of last year rates for vans were just 0.6% higher while flatbeds say a 5.4% falloff and reefers down 0.5%.
DAT Transcore notes fuel prices decreased 1% in March compared to the previous month and dropped 1.4% compared to March 2012.

Searchers in Bethel, Eek and Tuntutuliak are returning today to the Kialik River after a weekend of rough weather that slowed efforts to find Nick Cooke of Bethel and James L. Napoka of Tuluksak.
Bethel Search and Rescue reports that a small crew was able to make it to the mouth of the river Sunday and drag the bottom. The bulk of the recovery efforts today will be on the river, but a team out of Eek will continue to track footprints. The first few days of recovery operations have not yielded any sign of the men.
Two specially trained teams of search dogs will arrive tomorrow and head to the scene. The dogs and their handlers work with Alaska Search and Rescue Dogs in Anchorage. They expect to return to Anchorage on Wednesday night.

A Pitt County Schools bus mechanic has been named the best safety inspector in the state.
Dustin Wells was recently named the 2014 best bus inspector in the state by the North Carolina Pupil Transportation Association.
Wells got the award at the group's annual conference.
He competed against nearly 30 other technicians who all qualified for the event through a written bus safety exam.
Expert judges at the conference then rigged 3 buses with mechanical issues and challenged each competitor to correctly find the problems.
Wells came in first place and says he's serious about keeping kids safe while they're on the bus. He says, "It means a lot. I try to take a lot of pride in doing that because it is for the kids. You know it's not hauling potatoes, it's hauling kids. I have four myself so I take that very seriously."
Wells will represent North Carolina at a national competition this fall.
