Twenty-seven new police officers - apprentice officers - join the ranks of Dallas' Finest today at a graduation ceremony for Police Academy Class 289 scheduled for 2 p.m. today. It will be held at the Hoblitzelle Auditorium of the Bill J. Priest Institute.
Top honors go to Officer Justin Boyce, who scored the highest overall academy average of 93.15 and was second in academics with a 92.33. Officer Rachel Moore scored the highest in academics with a 93.00 and was second overall with a 92.65. Officer Daniel Fogle was third in both academics and overall with 92.13 and 91.37 respectively.
The female recruits lead the competition in the area of motor fitness. Officer Patricia Mora scored the highest in motor fitness performance with a 97.20. Officer Barbara Ausborne was second with a 94.60. Officer Perry Strickland was third with a 94.40.
Officer William McLennan out shot the other recruits and earned the highest score in Firearms Proficiency with a perfect average of 100.00. Officer Justin Boyce was second with a strong 99.90. Officer Justin Brandt came in third with the outstanding score of 99.80.
Say, here's an idea. Instead of berating a retiring CEO over money he earned and that his shareholders obviously agree with, pandering proposals to suspend gas taxes, and passing feel-good legislation to stop the "price gouging" boogeyman, why not do something useful?
Like opening ANWAR and the coasts to drilling? Easing ridiculous environmental regulations so that it's easier to build more refineries, since we haven't had a new one in 30 years? Or maybe building more nuclear plants so our grids wouldn't be reliant on natural gas?
Oh wait - election year. Best to go after the companies whose total profits account for 9 cents of the price of a gallon of gas.
My good buddy Tim Rogers over at D Magazine is officially closer to 40 today than 30. Happy Birthday, you gruff old coot.
Is it really a surprise the Dallas Independent School District is in the shape it's in given the current field of trustees and would-be trustees?
Matt Pulle over at the Dallas Observer has a hilarious summary of the Men and Women Who Would Be, which as we now know includes an alleged bathroom paramour, a convicted domestic abuser and an expensive lingerie fetishist. Joy.
The Houston Chronicle does a good job of covering how the illegal immigration debate is bleeding over into today's Cinco de Mayo celebrations, which is a real shame because no matter where people's opinions fall, there's never a bad day to celebrate with beer, tequila, chips and salsa. And it's not like Cinco de Mayo isn't part of the Texas heritage, with a number of Texans having fought in the Battle of Puebla in 1862.
"I think at any other time Texans may be more than happy to raise a Mexican flag or to drink a beer under the Mexican flag," said Tijerina, a historian who has written books about Tejanos including, Tejanos and Texas Under the Mexican Flag, 1821-1836. "That flag has recently been raising eyebrows."
Maybe everyone should just lighten up for a day.
In a scene right out of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, a convenience store clerk in Lake Highlands uses a pot of scalding water on a would-be robber. Awesome. Totally Awesome.
A few years back the Dallas Observer in an article on a space cult allowed as how most folks in Dallas thought North Park was the mother ship. If so, today the mother ship becomes one mother of a ship. Today the north Dallas structure created by Ray Nasher becomes the largest mall in Texas and among the five largest in the US. True to the Nasher tradition of arts and architecture the expanded North Park will have as its center piece a one and a half acre park and a magnificent 15-screen move theatre. Oh yes, it will also have over 1 million square feet of new stores for a total of nearly 2.5 million. And you are expected to drop about a billion a year there. Earth to shopper.

The emergency funding bill for the Iraq war and hurricane relief includes $1.5 billion in relief for Texas. Measures supported by Senator Hutchinson include:
(from the article)
"-$650 million to help cover costs for students who will enroll in Texas schools in the fall.
-$30 million that colleges and universities can apply for to cover costs associated with hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
-$10 million for law enforcement funds for fire and emergency services and other law enforcement expenses incurred with the arrival of Hurricane Katrina evacuees.
-$611 million in wildfire recovery assistance."
Sen. Hutchinson and Sen. Cornyn are also pushing FEMA to increase the federal rate of reimbursement for damage claims to 90 percent from the current 75 percent. Cornyn is also trying to get $182 million in Community Development Block Grants for Texas.

As David McNabb here first reported, Texas and OU have signed to play in Dallas until 2010.

TELUS To Purchase Up To 6.5 Million Common Shares Under Its Normal Course Issuer Bid Through Private Agreements
VANCOUVER, Aug. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - TELUS Corporation announced today that it will purchase and cancel up to 6.5 million of its common shares through private agreements with an arm's-length third-party seller. These private purchase agreements are separate and in addition to the private agreements for the purchase of 4.0 million common shares previously announced on June 14, 2013. Private agreements for purchases of up to 4.0 million common shares were made and may continue to be made according to an issuer bid exemption order issued by the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) on June 14, 2013 (June Order), which provides that such purchases must occur prior to September 30, 2013. To date, TELUS Corporation has completed purchases of 3.5 million of these 4.0 million common shares.The private agreement purchases for the additional 6.5 million common shares will be made according to an issuer bid exemption order issued by the OSC on August 13, 2013 (August Order) and will take place by way of several transactions pursuant to the terms of the August Order, which provides that such purchases must occur prior to November 30, 2013. The common shares purchased will be counted towards the 31.9 million common shares (subject to a maximum aggregate purchase price of $1 billion) that TELUS is entitled to purchase for cancellation under its amended normal course issuer bid (Amended NCIB) announced on July 22, 2013 and approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) on July 23. All common shares purchased by way of private agreements made pursuant to the June Order and August Order will be included in computing the number of common shares purchased under the Amended NCIB (and will not exceed, in aggregate, more than one-third of the maximum number of common shares that TELUS is permitted to purchase under the Amended NCIB, being 10,633,333 common shares). The price that TELUS will pay for the common shares purchased under the private agreements will be negotiated by TELUS and the sellers and will be at a discount to the market price of TELUS' common shares on the TSX at the time of the purchases.

Obama's Other Running Mate: Tech
technology platform during the presidential campaign.From the creation of a chief technology officer to an ambitious electronic medical records plan, he is seeking to renew Washington's focus on technology. There is plenty of speculation over who will become the country's first chief technology officer. The cabinet-level position will help federal agencies implement the latest technology tools and practices and will serve as a link between government IT and the wider tech sector. Media reports suggest Google (GOOG - Get Report) CEO (and vocal Obama supporter) Eric Schmidt, Internet guru Vint Cerf, and former Federal Communications Commission Chairman Reed Hundt as possible candidates. Cerf, Google's chief Internet evangelist, recently threw his weight behind Obama because of the president-elect's commitment to net neutrality, while Hundt served as a proxy for Obama in a key debate on technology issues during the campaign. Other potential candidates identified by the media include Amazon (AMZN - Get Report) CEO Jeff Bezos, Princeton computer science professor Ed Felten, and even Microsoft (MSFT - Get Report) CEO Steve Ballmer. A Washington insider such as Hundt would bring a high level of regulatory and political expertise to the CTO's role, while Schmidt and Bezos could use their experience with cutting edge technologies to bring information technology in the federal government into the 21st century. Whoever becomes chief technology officer, Silicon Valley is expected to have the ear of the president during the coming years. Employees at Microsoft and Google were amongst Obama's top campaign contributors, according to research from the Center For Responsive Politics.President-elect Barack Obama already is beginning to lay the groundwork for changes in the landscape for technology in this country. Obama's agenda was spelled out in his

No Regrets Parenting: Turning Long Days and Short Years into Cherished Moments with Your Kids : No Regrets Parenting teaches parents to experience the joy and depth of the parenting experience amidst the chaos and choreography of daily routines.

No Regrets Parenting helps parents find the time to do it all and feel good about their kids' childhood. There is a simple, single truth for every parent. Your kids need you to be there. They need to see who you are and how you live your life. And, in return, they will help you to better see who you are and how you should be living your life. No Regrets Parenting is about time. Finding enough of it and making the most of it.

The faster the Rockies went, the more spectacular the crash was going to be. They were more Bonneville than ballpark the first two weeks. Saturday night, the airbags finally deployed in an ugly 8-3 loss to the Cubs, halting a seven-game winning streak.
Baseball obeys human restraints. The Rockies weren't going to win out this month. They lived dangerously in New York, trailing in every game. Those, though, were against the Mets, who have turned this season into a blooper reel. The Cubs aren't filming any instructional videos, but they can hit. And at least on this night, the Rockies did not.
Twelve empty at-bats with runners in scoring position and 13 men left on base eloquently explains the Rockies' first nine-inning loss.
"We just couldn't come up with the big hit," said shortstop Troy Tulowitzki, who was originally supposed to sit today, but will be in the lineup after resting for an inning. "We had our chances."
The plot line was very similar to the road trip, except that the shortstop taking fans' breaths away played for the Cubs. Starlin Castro served as a one-man wrecking ball. The youngest player in the majors at 21, Castro hammered a three-run shot into the bleachers during a forgettable seventh inning for reliever Felipe Paulino.
"That was amazing," Cubs starter Casey Coleman said. "Off the plate at 95 miles per hour, and he hits it out. You just don't see that, especially from a young guy."
The Rockies bullpen had been nearly flawless in the late- inning cauldron. Paulino owned a 1.59 ERA before five of the six batters he faced scored. His problems were not unlike those that prompted the Rockies to convert him from a starter into a reliever. He has plus stuff but unpredictable command.
Paulino was unable to ladder his fastball, leaving Cubs hitters looking for heaters down and away. As soon as that pitch appeared to Castro, it just as quickly vanished over the left- field fence. Castro finished a triple shy of the cycle.
On The Rox blog
Troy E. Renck and Jim Armstrong post analysis, notes and minutiae on this blog devoted to the Colorado Rockies.
"A complete nemesis," summed up Rockies manager Jim Tracy.
Taking that into account, this game was similar to many of the Rockies' 11 wins. Their starter teetered but never tottered. Naked at times without his fastball, Jason Hammel worked six innings. He retired seven straight at one point, blending changeups and curveballs. He left trailing 3-1 to become the first Rockies starter to lose this season.
"Too many baserunners," Hammel said. "To force our guys to claw back is unacceptable."
Two weeks in, the rotation is 9-1 with a 3.77 ERA — and Ubaldo Jimenez hasn't won yet.
The Rockies' offense sputtered at the worst possible time. With Colorado trailing 2-1, Dexter Fowler opened the fifth with a double off Coleman. He advanced to third on an error, and became lonelier than one sock. Jonathan Herrera grounded out, Tulo popped up, and Carlos Peña robbed Seth Smith with a diving play at first base.
The lack of execution was haunting, the defining moment in the season's first clunker.
Alan Johnson makes his big-league debut today, backed by Tulo and CarGo, whose stiff back improved after treatment.
"I will be in there," Gonzalez said. "We need to get it going again. "
Troy E. Renck: 303-954-1301 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Cubbie's designer genes help Chicago in defeating Rockies
Right-hander Casey Coleman, Saturday's winner, is baseball's first third-generation pitcher. Coleman's grandfather, Joe, pitched in the big leagues from 1942-55, including an all-star season with the Philadelphia A's in 1948, and his dad, Joe, pitched from 1965-79, including an all-star season with Detroit in 1972. So who relieved Coleman? James Russell, whose dad, Jeff, led the American League with 38 saves for Texas in 1989.
Just the fax.
The loss marked the first game this season in which the Rockies never led.
Managing nicely.
The victory improved the Cubs' record to 31-20 since Mike Quade became their manager on Aug. 23 of last season. That ties them with the Giants for the second-best record in the game in that span, trailing only the Phillies. Jim Armstrong, The Denver Post
Looking ahead
TODAY: Cubs at Rockies, 1:10 p.m., Root
Alan Johnson will throw a sinking fastball and mix in changeups and curves. Question is, how nervous will he be in his major- league debut? Johnson, 27, was an undrafted free agent in 2005 who won 10 games in 2009 and again in 2010 in Triple-A. Ryan Dempster (1-2, 6.30), a former Golden resident, has logged 600-plus innings in the past three seasons. He needs a win today to even his career record at 104-104. Now for the fine print: He has made nine appearances, five starts, at Coors Field, with a 1-3 record and 11.35 ERA to show for it. Todd Helton vs. Dempster: three home runs. Jim Armstrong, The Denver Post
Upcoming pitching matchups
Monday: Giants' Tim Lincecum (1-1, 1.86 ERA) at Rockies' Esmil Rogers (2-0, 2.77), 6:40 p.m., Root
Tuesday: Giants' Jonathan Sanchez (1-1, 3.24) at Rockies' Ubaldo Jimenez (0-0, 7.50), 6:40 p.m., Root
Wednesday: Giants' Matt Cain (2-0, 1.42) at Rockies' Jorge De La Rosa (2-0, 3.18), 1:10 p.m., Root
Thursday: Off

Are you a avid cyclist? Or a nut for jogging? Well, you are probably a very health conscious person who feels good and are happy with your health. That is the feeling of most active people when it comes to their exercise routine. But what if I told you you might be missing a key ingredient to your overall health. You might call me crazy, but it is true. Many people do not realize that their upper body strength is as important as the rest of their body.
If you are exercising regularly, but it is only using the lower half of your body, then your upper body is becoming weak by the day. A balanced workout that is attentive to every part of your body is the key to having a well rounded workout routine. An upper body workout like lifting weights, doing sit-ups, etc help you to have a strong upper body that can take the daily stress that you put on it.
You may be saying, "I don't lift or over stress my upper body," but that is a short sited view. If you do not have your upper body in good condition, you risk having back problems, neck problems, or just becoming unable to accomplish simple task as you age.
The shift is not that difficult. All you need to do is make a conscious effort to make one of your workouts each week about the upper body. If that seems daunting and/or boring, then use the area where you bike or run. Many running trails have exercise equipment that you can use for push ups, pull ups or other exercises that balance your workout and address you upper body strength.
So, congratulations on being a health and active individual. Now, start analyzing your workout and make sure that you are giving attention to every part of your body. One day when you are in your golden years, you will thank yourself for being a good friend to your it:)

9 Dumb Ways to Borrow Money -- and 4 Better Choices
Of all the ways to waste money, giving it to high-interest lenders, pawnbrokers and loan sharks is one of the worst. Here are loans to avoid.
Of all the ways to waste money, giving it to high-interest lenders, pawnbrokers and loan sharks is one of the worst. Here are loans to avoid.
Payday lenders capitalize on needy members of the military. Here's how those in the service and civilians can learn how to avoid their plight.
The Pentagon has urged Congress to close large loopholes in a 2006 act that protects members of the military from predatory practices of payday lenders.
Payday, pawn shop and car title loans loans look like convenient ways for people with subprime credit to borrow money. They're not.
It looks like America may dodge the default bullet and the government may shortly reopen for business. Here are a few who will be sad to see us skip an economic Armageddon.
Even rich people need quick cash sometimes, so they're turning to upscale pawnshops like Borro, which takes everything from sports cars to fine wine in exchange for big loans.
Turning small-business owners into stars has become a winning formula for television producers, but some businesses featured in them are cashing in, too.
Gold prices are up again, and floating near an all-time high: That means bad news for the overall economy, but good news if you have unwanted jewelry and want to cash in. But be careful: It's also a good time to get cheated. DailyFinance explains how to get the best price for your gold.
Two-year-old Pawngo bills itself as a more upscale pawnshop for the digital age, catering to a new breed of pawn customer -- not desperate, just temporarily cash-strapped. The company wants to dispel the stereotype of sketchy storefronts dealing in fenced goods -- and so far, it has had a fair amount of success.
The founders of the nation's biggest daily deal, group-buying site are getting into the pawn shop business. Groupon founders Eric Lefkofsky and...

Millions of Americans are facing the worst money problems imaginable, but these same conditions are a boon for pawn shops and payday lenders.

The $1.1-billion purchase of a stake in ArcelorMittal's (
) Canadian iron-ore unit by China Steel Corp. and Posco increased
interest in Canada's ability to meet Asian demand for the
steelmaking raw material, Bloomberg reported.
Champion Iron Mines Ltd. (CHM.TO), Alderon Iron Ore Corp.
(ADV.TO) and Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Ltd. (LIM.TO) surged
yesterday in Toronto after Taiwan's China Steel and South Korea's
Posco led a group that agreed to buy 15% of ArcelorMittal Mines
Canada Inc.
The deal, the second-biggest in the Canadian iron-ore industry,
gives the Asian steelmakers' group access to deposits generating
about 40% of the country's production of the commodity,
ArcelorMittal said on its website.
"It shows you that Canada is an important iron-ore producer and
you've got foreign buyers demonstrating an interest in the product
that we have, the infrastructure and the risks involved in
operating here," said Wojtek Nowak, a Toronto-based analyst at
Fraser Mackenzie Ltd.
Canada is positioning itself as a source of shipments to compete
with Australia and Brazil, the world's two largest iron-ore
exporters. Canada's Champion, Alderon and Labrador Iron plan to
capitalize on the country's supply of skilled labor and its lower
political risk compared with rival iron-ore regions such as West

Lovely homely accommodation
I can't put into words about how good a weekend me and my partner had in Scarborough, we really did have an amazing time.
Good weather, good food and lovely people. One of the lovely people happened to be the owner of Airedale Guest House, what a really nice guy. He greeted us on arrival and was so charming. Our room was so homely and overlooked the cricket ground. We also had an amazing nights sleep, and that's not always the case in some places. I almost forgot to mention his lovely dogs. Will hopefully visit again very soon.

Fantastic welcoming friendly place to stay
Airedale Guest House is a very comfortable place to stay.
A short walk from the beach, shops and a good gentle walk up into town. FREE Parking outside was no problem at all, lots of free spaces to chose from. Everything was perfect and we would love to stay there again. Everyone is welcomed by the staff, including children and they made all feel like they where home from home at all times. Breakfast time is a no fuss, no waiting service, with many choices including a hot full english which is one of the best we have had in a guest house. Not too early start as guests where still eating at 9.30am. THANKYOU

My wife and i stayed at the Airdale Guest House, was met at the door by a cheerful young man Adrian.
Who showed us to our room that was on the ok side for 2 people. The cooked breakfast was very good, it set us up for the day. All in all we had no complaints with our stay and the service we received. We would definitely stay at the Airdale again if we are doing Scarborough again. Thank you Adrian.

Another lovely stay
This was my second time staying at the Airedale Guest House and just like before I had a lovely comfortable room, with fantastic service and the best English breakfast each morning, even a vegetarian option was available.
I would certainly recommend the Airedale for anyone staying in Scarborough.

Good value and Friendly
I stayed on business traveling alone, so had just booked the Single Room - I was upgraded to the Double at no extra charge on Check In.
It was clean and well presented. I was not offered any choice for the hot English Breakfast, I just had the Full English cooked for me - the portion was very generous, but I would have liked to have been asked, as I would have only had a couple of items, and not the large portion served. It was hot and tasty. The selection for Breakfast was good. The accommodation and welcome was clean overall and very good value. I would be happy to stay again.

Fallen leader's legacy remembered
January 22, 2013
JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. - Family, friends, and soldiers from 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division gathered to honor the life and legacy of Staff Sgt. Wesley R. Williams in a memorial ceremony at Evergreen Chapel, Jan. 16.
Williams, 25, of New Carlisle, Ohio, died Dec. 10, during combat operations in Panjwa'i district, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered when enemy forces attacked his unit with an improvised explosive device. He was assigned to Company B, the "Bayonet Company" of 1st Battalion, 38th Infantry Regiment, 4th SBCT, 2nd Infantry Division.
"A true patriot, Staff Sgt. Williams loved his profession and dedicated himself to serving his nation for a lifetime," said Capt. Adam Patten, 1-38 Infantry rear detachment commander, on behalf of Company B commander Capt. Matthew Boise.
In too short a period of time, he gave a lifetime's worth of service to more than just his nation, Patten continued.
According to Boise, Williams was a young, extremely energetic and skilled noncommissioned officer. He would always find humor in a tough situation, was committed to accomplishing the most difficult tasks and always gave his best.
"Several of us will remember how hard Staff Sgt. Williams fought, in his most desperate moment, for his own life and more importantly, for the lives of his soldiers," Patten said.
"He always displayed great loyalty and true passion for being a soldier," said Staff Sgt. Spencer Wright, 1-38 Infantry rear detachment headquarters platoon sergeant, who spoke on behalf of Sgt. 1st Class Donald Register, Williams' platoon sergeant.
"He didn't sleep or quit until he was satisfied with the results and, to me, that showed his true character as a leader," said Wright.
The lasting impression Williams made on those around him was further illustrated by Wright through the words of a soldier downrange, who recalled first meeting Williams in 2010.
"When I came into the Company B family, Spc. Williams greeted me with open arms and spent countless hours teaching and mentoring me on how to be the very best soldier I am today," said Wright. "For that, I am eternally grateful."
"Staff Sgt. Williams will always be remembered as a true American hero," quoted Wright.
"To his endless gifts honed through a perfectionist's quest, generations of soldiers will now bear likeness to his leadership traits and culture of character," Patten said on behalf of Lt. Col. Chad Sundem, 1-38 Infantry commander.
The Brigade Soldier of the Year, Williams was also a husband, father and father-to-be.
"As we go forward, we take with us Staff Sgt. Williams' memory and his examples of courage, leadership, humility and service," said Patten on behalf of Boise.
"We will not falter, we will remain 'Rocks'," he continued. "We will never forget our sense of duty - we will fix bayonets, we will move on - 'To the Objective', so 'Let 'em Come!'"
In Memoriam
Staff Sgt. Wesley Ross Williams, of New Carlisle, Ohio, was born Mar. 17, 1987, and graduated from Tecumseh High School in 2005. Following graduation, he attended Basic Training and Advanced Individual Training at Fort Benning, Ga., in the military occupational specialty 11B, Infantryman.
Williams completed Airborne School in 2005 and received the Special Qualification Identifier of Parachutist. He was assigned to 3rd Squadron, 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment (SCR), Vilseck, Germany, in March of 2006. He deployed to Iraq with 2nd SCR as a radio telephone operator from August 2007 until October 2008.
In February 2009, Williams was assigned to 1-38 Infantry, 4th SBCT, 2nd Infantry Division at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash. He deployed to Iraq as a rifleman with the unit from September 2009 to August 2010. A veteran of two Iraq tours, he deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom as a squad leader in November 2012.
According to Williams' wife, Krista, in his spare time he enjoyed drawing, loved tattoos, and was addicted to the video game series "Halo." Above all, he was a proud father.
"He was a really, really great father," said Krista.
"He always wanted to be a soldier from the time he was little," she added. "He died doing what he loved."
Williams' additional military education includes the Warrior Leaders Course (2011).
His awards and decorations include the Bronze Star Medal, Purple Heart, Army Commendation Medal with two Bronze Oak Leaf Clusters, Army Achievement Medal with four Bronze Oak Leaf Clusters, Army Good Conduct Medal (2nd award), National Defense Service Medal, Afghanistan Campaign Medal with campaign star, Iraq Campaign Medal with two campaign stars, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, Army Service Ribbon, Overseas Service Ribbon with Numeral "3", NATO Medal, Combat Infantryman's Badge, Expert Infantryman's Badge, and Parachutist Badge.
Williams is survived by his wife, Krista, daughter, Faith, parents Linda and Lars Williams, and siblings Amber, Hannah and Austin Williams.

Caveat on reading
|Support Keddem
Weekly Quote from
Rabbi Mordecai Kaplan,
z"l (1881-1983)
..."Teshuvah" simply means return. Return to what? The answer is given by the Sukkah, "Return to the simple, the natural, the primitive and the primary sources of life." ...The principle of the Sukkah is an antidote and corrective to the ever growing complexity of civilization. We have to go back in order to go forward.

Fort Sill swim team tears up lanes
June 14, 2012
By Ms. Marie Berberea (TRADOC)
FORT SILL, Okla.-- The Fort Sill Seals are showing others that swimming pools are not meant for lazy summer days.
"You need dedication, you need a bite. You have to fight for it, every day in practice. Every 25 meters counts," said Victoria Ward, Fort Sill Seals head coach.
The team is part of USA Swimming, the same league as Michael Phelps. The swimmers are military children ages 5 -18 years old and they practice at the Rinehart Fitness Center swimming pool.
The workouts are intense as they combine long laps and dry land drills.
"They run, they stretch, they do calisthenics, they do pushups. We have two assistant coaches and Sgt. Maj. [Martin] Roy does planks and Crossfit exercises with them. They train very hard," said Ward. "They had to work to get to that. When my high schoolers came they swam about 3,000 meters. And I was like you guys are 16, 17 years old you need to be able to do more. Within a good six weeks, they were up to 4,000 meters a practice."
While their workouts are rough, their competition is up for the challenge as a recent meet put them up against a swimmer who qualified for the Olympic trials.
"From day one when I started swimming, I wasn't sure if I wanted to stick with it because I was terrible. Everybody was faster than me, but this is still my first year swimming and I've dropped so much time. I've made state times," said Jayden Roy.
The Seals have two seasons, with only a two-week break in between. The summer season is called the long course season, where they only compete in 50-meter pools. The winter season is the short course season where they compete in 25-meter pools.
Ward herself has been swimming for more than 20 years. She came to the sport in a roundabout way, but found her place in the pool.
"I was in ballet as a little girl, and my ballet instructor saw that I had one leg shorter than the other. My orthopedic [doctor] decided ballet is not the ideal sport for me, swimming would be a lot better for my spine. At first I hated it," said Ward. "It was awful. My parents had to drag me to practice twice a week for about a year. One day it just clicked, I swam a race and didn't win, but I significantly dropped my time. From then on, I was just addicted."
Ward pushes her swimmers the same way she was pushed and she said in turn it's a very rewarding experience.
Kelsie King has been a swimmer since she was 9 years old. She has been a part of the Fort Sill Seals since the team began.
"Coach Victoria has made me a lot faster in my swimming. I love it. I can't kick, I can't run, I can't throw, so I swim. I've always loved the water," said King.
Ward said each swimmer finds something in the water for them, whether that's competition, exercise, or even relaxation.
"One kid in particular has ADD and he said to me when he's in the water he feels at peace. That gives you a lot as a coach. We're all volunteers so we take a lot from them. When they leave they write us letters and it's really touching that we've instilled something in them," said Ward.
Ward said swimming teaches them to overcome obstacles, even when they're having a bad day. She said it really is up to the individual.
"When it's you in the water there's nothing else," said Roy. "I swam for high school last year, I fell in love with it and just want to make myself better so I joined here. This is a lot harder. Coach Victoria pushes you hard. She makes you want to do better than anybody else. She knows what you're capable of and she pushes you beyond your boundaries," said Roy.

Insuring Against Success
Eight reasons why the health-insurance industry should change its position and support reform.
Click here for a guide to following the health care reform story online.
3) No public option. From the beginning, health insurers' biggest worry about health reform was that it would create a "public option" government health insurance plan to compete with private health insurers to sign up those 30 million uninsured. But the public option never made it into Obama's proposal, and it's unlikely to get shoehorned in later, because doing so would kill its (already weak) prospects of passing the House, where success hinges on winning over conservative Democrats. Obama last week reportedly told House liberals that he was "personally committed" to creating a public option after the bill is passed. But as I've noted before, if it's this difficult to create a public option today, trying to do so after the federal government makes private health insurers half a trillion dollars richer will surely be much more difficult. As a public-option supporter myself, I take no pleasure in noting this. But if insurers really want to smother the public option, their smarter long-term policy is to get the health reform bill passed.
4) The Cadillac tax has been emasculated. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reportedly calculates that after extensive negotiations with labor groups and others, only 20 percent remains of the original proposal to tax high-cost "Cadillac" health insurance policies. A Feb. 22 column by David Brooks in the New York Times and a March 7 editorial in the Washington Post pronounce this a terrible tragedy. For reasons I've explained elsewhere, it is actually a blessing. But forget the high-minded dispute about what's the best policy. Even Brooks and the Post editorial board would agree that the steady erosion of the Cadillac tax is excellent news for insurers. Another point of agreement between Brooks and me: The Cadillac tax, which has already been delayed, will probably get killed outright before it ever takes effect. Brooks sees this as a demonstration of the squalor of special-interest politics. I see it as acknowledgment that the tax is misconceived and unworkable. From insurers' point of view, it doesn't make the slightest difference which of us is right. (Just for the record, though: I am.)
5) Obama isn't serious about imposing price controls on insurers. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I don't believe Obama truly wants to tell health insurers what they can charge customers. The White House proposal would empower the Health and Human Services Department to review and roll back health insurance premium hikes nationwide—something never contemplated in either the House or the Senate bill. This poses a potential administrative nightmare, and I think the president probably knows that. It's pure grandstanding, something to deal away in order to get a bill. But if insurers don't cut a deal, the rollback plan just might blunder its way into the final bill.
6) Skin in the game. Health insurers and others complain that the health reform bill does little to control doctor and hospital bills, especially in the private sector. That's true. Health insurers also worry that planned cuts in Medicare fees could lead hospitals and doctors to engage in "cost-shifting," i.e., to increase what they charge private insurers to make up for what they're losing to the government. But let's get serious. Whether health reform becomes law or not, Congress will eventually impose some curbs on Medicare spending, because it must. Only under health reform, though, will $411 billion in subsidies to private health insurers give the government, for the first time ever, a meaningful stake in controlling rising private doctor and hospital fees. Health costs rise faster in the private sector than they do in the public sector, because the government wields greater market clout than private insurers do. Between 1970 and 2003, for example, private health insurance spending rose 10.1 percent annually, as compared with 9 percent for Medicare. If you want to slow medical inflation in the private sector, it makes sense to expand the government's investment in private health care.
7) If health reform fails this time, existing problems will worsen and Congress will be back with a less hospitable proposal to health insurers. "As bad as they are," Arnold Relman wrote in the July 2 New York Review of Books, "things will have to get still worse before major reform becomes politically possible." Granted, Relman sees things getting worse even if Congress goes ahead and passes the health reform bill, which Relman doesn't consider "major reform." Granted, too, the trend in recent years has been for the proletariat, whenever it's getting screwed by big business, to demand smaller government. But surely there's some breaking point at which the public will demand much greater intervention in the health economy. I believe we'll reach it whether health reform passes or not. But it seems logical that we'll reach it sooner if health reform doesn't pass. Perhaps such Machiavellian reasoning ought to make a single-payer advocate like me an opponent of the Obama plan, but I just can't oppose legislation that would bring immediate relief to the uninsured and the underinsured. Health insurers have a simpler calculus to make. To put off a real crackdown on for-profit health insurance, sign on the dotted line today.
8) There's a decent chance health reform won't pass even if health insurers support it. Even if the previous seven arguments are wrong, the health reform bill is so tied up in partisan and abortion politics that AHIP could easily endorse it and it still wouldn't pass. Were that to happen, AHIP would at least have bought some good will.
In Washington, you seldom get in trouble for opposing something. Billy Tauzin, president of the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers of America, is leaving his post this summer, and it's rumored the reason is that drug companies thought he got suckered into supporting health reform. (In truth, if anybody got suckered it was the White House, which pledged foolishly to limit PhRMA's losses to $80 billion.) Ignani's continuing intransigence may reflect anxiety that she might suffer a similar fate. But what's best for Ignani's career is not the same as what's in the insurance industry's best financial interest. Were I chairman of WellPoint, I'd pick up the phone and demand that Congress pass Obama's health proposal right now.

My son left his sippy cup on the floor and my daughter got it and ingested a small amount of milk! The last time she had milk she was 2 months old and she projectile vomited it a couple of hours later. She is 1 year old now and I was not supposed to give her milk until she was 4 as per her allergist. Has this happened to anyone else? I am afraid :( She has not had a reaction to ANYTHING that I have fed her in 6 months, so my fingers are crossed that she has maybe outgrown the intolerance?
HELP! My daughter just got my 3 year olds sippy cup of MILK!
Fingers crossed for you! Oh, how scary, good luck! Will be praying that she doesn´t react.
We have had a similar thing happen. Not with milk but with oatmeal. My lo found the spoon and licked it! I'm so sorry you have to wait and see what happens. I will be thinking of you and hope you are reaction free.
Oh no! I'm so sorry this happened! I hope she doesn't have a reaction. Thinking of you all. Please keep us updated
Katie, babywearing mommy to: Lila (Sept. 2006) - Montessori educated; & Tory (May 2009) - FPIES, but loving life
Well, it's been 2 1/2 hours and the only weird thing that has happened so far is a loose stool right around the 2 hour mark. Her previous vomiting episodes have happened right around the 2 hour mark, so hopefully we are in the clear.
Mom to Gracie 2.5yrs FPIES & Reagan 6wks susected FPIES.
International Association For Food Protein Enterolcolitis (IAFFPE)
She is totally fine this morning. In fact, she slept through the entire night (which does not happen very often). No eczema, no rash, no more loose stools, and no vomiting episode. Either she did not actually ingest much or any of the milk, or she is getting over that intolerance. I am not brave enough to try it again, so I guess I will just thank my lucky stars that we didn't end up in the hospital!
Thanks for all of your words of encouragement!
I'm so glad she's ok!
- Kyla
first time mama to LiaBell 6/29/09 (FPIES rice&oats, IgE egg)
Thank goodness she is fine! My LO pigged out on a plate of ketchup on her birthday (wednesday) and only had a little gas! I am so thankful for small blessings!
~Melissa proud mom to Zany Brainy Jack (6) and Sweet Spunky Samaya (3) FPIES
Thank goodness for small blessings indeed! So glad no big reactions occurred for you!!!
~ Amanda, FTM to Baby B (March '09), Baby C (May '12) Love my girls!

In Ryan O'Nan's Brooklyn Brothers Beat the Best, a singer/songwriter teams up with a musical revolutionary in what looks like a quirky bromance complete with some solid music. Spoiler alert: they probably end up beating the best.
It stars O'Nan, who also wrote the screenplay, alongside Michael Weston (House M.D.) and Arielle Kebbel (John Tucker Must Die). You can check out the trailer here, but we've got a clip that gives an excellent view to the kind of awkward, interpersonal comedy on display. In it, Kyle (Jason Ritter) breaks up the band and agrees to disagree with O'Nan's Alex.
Oscilloscope picked up the movie, so it'll be in theaters today (9/21). Be on the look out, and see the clip for yourself:
