Head-to-head: Fed 1, Andy 2
Last meeting: Dubai '08 (hard), Andy 6-7(6), 6-3, 6-4
The semifinals have been decided and the final is all set but it isn't the meeting most would have imagined. Four-time defending champion and second seed Roger Federer will be going for his 13th Grand Slam trophy, putting him one behind Pete Sampras' record 14 majors, when he takes on first time finalist, sixth seeded Andy Murray, for the US Open championship.
How they got here: Fed seems to have finally found his stellar form just in time. The Swiss avenged his semifinal Aussie Open loss to Novak Djokovic when he outplayed the sluggish Serb 6-3, 5-7, 7-5, 6-2. Andy Murray looked brilliant during his clinical dissection of top seed Rafael Nadal. The Brit baller sliced, diced, and lobbed his way into his first Grand Slam final with a rousing 6-2, 7-6 (5), 4-6, 6-4 two day defeat of the Spanish steamroller.
The last time these two met was earlier this season in Dubai, when the 21-year old shocked Fed in the first round with a 6-7(6), 6-3, 6-4 win. It was Andy's second straight defeat of the 12-time Grand Slammer after having won against the Swiss in Cincinnati '06.
Here's what Fed had to say about the possibility of facing Andy:
It will be interesting to see how [Andy] handles [his first major final], but I have a feeling he's a guy who plays well on the big occasions. That's why I need to be very, very careful how I play tomorrow if it is Andy.Andy has this to say about battling Fed for the first time in a major:
I've played well against him in the past. I think a Slam final is different to the match that I played against him before. You know, he's obviously won, you know, over 30 matches in a row here, you know, so he's obviously going to be feeling confident going in.
He's got loads of experience in these situations and it's something new for me. I know I'm going to have to play great to have a chance of winning, but I've played well the last couple of weeks.Outlook: No longer "Mopey Murray", the Brit baller has shown supreme confidence throughout the fortnight. After his narrow escape from a 5-set defeat against Jurgen Melzer in the third round, Andy crushed Stanislas Wawrinka, outlasted Juan Martin del Potro, and outplayed Rafael Nadal. He has every trick up his Fred Perry sleeves and could win this match if he can utilize his full arsenal of shots.
But Roger Federer has some tricks of his own, finding some of his best stuff (read: serve) when he needed it most. He possesses so much experience at this stage of a major which will give him a decided edge over his British foe.
But most importantly Fed has learned, as Brad Gilbert would say, to win UGLY. The Swiss got gritty when the going got tough, has been outwardly expressive when urging himself on, found ways to win when his game was lacking, and even sweated profusely!
Andy may have a winning record over Fed but they've never played in a major and defeating the Swiss stylist in a best three-out-of-five format is a completely different challenge. Fed wants to make a good year great and he will when he wins his fifth straight US Open championship.

Hey guys,
Two years ago I started 1MG finasteride a day, I am now almost 22 years old. (you can read my story here: viewtopic.php?f=28&t=59033&start=20)
Unfortunately, I am starting to develop gyno (confirmed through X-ray), so I need to quit finasteride. This really sucks since I was doing really well in the hair department. Anyways I know that fin is basically the only real treatment. I still want to fight the hairloss though, even if it's just to feel like I am doing something. So I have a couple of questions.
Obviously I am going to try minoxidil 5%. Should I start right away or wait a little while to see what is going to happen?
Should I look for other DHT inhibitors (like saw palmetto/green tea) I know these are probably not as strong as fin but taking 20% off 100% DHT levels is still something right? Are there others I don't know about?
I currently use Revita Shampoo, is this still my best bet?
Any other advice?
Greetings, Sebastien

ASIST 2012 Annual Meeting
Baltimore, MD, October 26-30, 2012
Checking In: A Phenomenological Study of Active Users of Geolocational Tagging Services
Carol E. Smith
Monday, 6:30pm
Geosocial check-in services are a relatively new feature of social media, used by a small but growing percenta e of social networking enthusiasts. The purpose of this exploratory phenomenological study is to develop an initial qualitative understanding of the practices, interests, needs, and motivations of active users of mobile geosocial check-in services, and the meaning that they ascribe to the use of geotagging services in their daily life. Through interview analysis and rich description, five key themes emerge. Geosocial check-in services provide users with personal entertainment, social connectivity, and a sense of belonging to a distinct community. Users integrate geotagging into a larger, sophisticated system of social media use and construct rules of engagement for both privacy and security purposes. Geosocial check-in services are found to be more than just a novel feature present in social media applications - users employ them to bind together the internal, social, and virtual dimensions of their modern lives, and to situate these dimensions in relation to the physical world around them.

American Idol season 11 where are they now
American Idol's season 12 is well underway, but what about the top 10 contestants from season 11?
As we all know, season 11 was to be the last season for American Idol judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez.
The first round of performances saw Jim Carrey's daughter, Jane Carrey cut from the competition, as numerous contestants fell ill and collapsed in the auditorium. Contestant Symone Black actually collapsed while on stage and went on to make the cut.
Initially there were to be 12 males and 12 females, but the judges announced plans to add a 13th male semi-finalist between Jermaine Jones, Richie Law, Johnny Keyser and David Leathers Jr. The following week, after the male performances, Jermaine Jones was revealed to be the thirteenth performer, which set the stage for controversy and fueled speculation of a ratings grab.
On March 14, with only 11 contestants remaining, Jermaine Jones was disqualified for concealing arrests and outstanding warrants. Jones denied that he had concealed his previous arrests and says he disclosed them when signing up for Idol. Footage of executive producers Nigel Lythgoe and Ken Warwick confronting Jones was shown in what would have been his performance slot.
A police official in the New Jersey town where he had two arrest warrants said, "The case wasn't big enough to merit going after him in California," and a New Jersey legislator commented, for the show "to expose, embarrass and interrogate a young man without an attorney in front of 40 million viewers was an outrage."
Critics accused the show of staging the disqualification in order to boost the already slumping ratings.
Erika Van Pelt
Erika Van Pelt made it into the No. 10 spot and made the requisite rounds on the various talk shows.Van Pelt currently runs her own DJ business (VP Entertainment) and performs part-time with "The Sultans of Swing", and is a performing partner of "Fairhaven Entertainment" and "Boston Swing."
In early 2014 Van Pelt will be hosting and performing on a Royal Caribbean cruise to Grand Cayman, Jamaica and Haiti. She's also in the process of recording her debut album, according to her Facebook page.
In January Van Pelt wrote on Facebook, "Day 1 in the studio today tracking for the new album! I feel really blessed to be making an indie record, done my way. No label, and all the freedom in the world. I can't wait for you all to hear it!"
HeeJun Han
Ninth place winner and jokester was Heejun Han who wooed the judges, and the audience, with his offbeat humor. He generally won the day with a joke, not a song.
Han made a number of appearances after the show, including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Live! with Kelly and The Wendy Williams Show. He also performed "God Bless America" to open for the New York Mets.
He appeared as a judge in a K-Pop competition at the New York University's Skirball Center for the Performing Arts in September, and currently has no plans for an album. Click for more images
DeAndre Brackensick
Eighth place winner DeAndre Brackensick hasn't done much of anything.
The biggest news post-idol was him hooking up with runner-up Jessica Sanchez during the American Idol Live Tour. They could be seen walking hand in hand backstage, just prior to their performances.
He's active on Facebook and has just recently started a Tumblr to show off some photos. Based on the photos it appears he's listening to music more than he is singing.
Colton Dixon
Colton Dixon is the contestant who didn't even try out and ended up in seventh place. If you recall Dixon had tried out for season 10 but failed to make the cut. Season 11 tryouts found his sister trying out with him standing in the wings. The judges insisted that he come out and tryout with his sister standing by. She didn't make the cut, but he did, and he's been a busy little Christian ever since.
Following his elimination Dixon appeared on a number of shows including a visit to Access Hollywood where he performed a rendition of "Everything," by Lifehouse. He was also invited to the White House Correspondents Dinner as a special guest of the Christian Broadcasting Network.
Dixon signed on to Sparrow Records, an imprint of the EMI Christian Music Group, releasing "Never Gone" and "You Are," both hitting No. 1 on the Christian charts. On January 29 he released his debut album "A Messenger," sending it to No. 1 on Top Christian Albums and Gospel Albums.
Dixon is currently gearing up to go on tour with Grammy winning Christian rockers Third Day.
Elise Testone
Elise Testone landed in sixth place with her gravelly and soulful voice. During her time on Idol she couldn't get a break, landing in the bottom three most weeks.
She may have had a difficult time winning over audiences, but she didn't seem to have a problem winning over Idol guitarist Errol Cooney. Rumor has it the two may have hooked up during the American Idol Live Tour, resulting in Cooney's wife filing for a divorce. Testone has denied doing the deed, but did admit to a close friendship with the guitarist.
Right after Idol, Testone made the rounds on all the talk shows including Good Day L.A.,The Today Show, Anderson, and The Ellen DeGeneres Show. She also performed with fellow contestant Colton Dixon on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
The voice coach still lives in Charleston, South Carolina and continues to actively perform in the area. She has no formal plans to release an album, but she's been writing plenty of music.
Skylar Laine
Fifth place Skylar Laine is another contestant that's been idle since Idol, announced in November that she has signed with 19 Entertainment and has moved to Nashville, Tennessee to start work on her debut album.
She recently debut an original song called "Settle Down," written by herself, Chris DeStefano and Anne Preven.
Hollie Cavanagh
Fourth place Hollie Cavanagh has been pretty quiet since Idol, but has plans to begin recording her debut album early this year. Just recently she posted to her Facebook account, "Busy writing some music in the studio excited !!!"
She's also started a YouTube channel for all her Holliepops, as she calls her fans, promising to "to keep everyone in the loop of whats going on and soon you'll see some covers and original music!"
Fans can also keep updated on one of her fan pages.
Joshua Ledet
In August third place Joshua Ledet appeared on iHeartRadio as he debut an original song "Sound of a Heart Breaking." Since then the son of a preacher has been pretty idle.
There is a potential business arrangement that may be in the works for Ledet, who earned the nickname Mantasia, because he reminded Idol fans of past contestant Fantasia. It seems there is a strip club in New York City called Mantasia that is hoping to bring Ledet into the fold to help market their wares. Don't hold your breath.
Ledet has also been seen at sporting events singing the national anthem.
Jessica Sanchez
Jessica Sanchez was the runner up to Phillip Phillips and with the new Idol contract she was not guaranteed an album and a $175,000 advance. Instead she was only entitled to a "developmental" deal with 19 Recordings and no advance.
Sanchez has since signed with Interscope Records and has been performing at various events. She recently was featured on the cover of Mega Magazine, and plans on releasing her debut single this month, with an album later this year.
While visiting the Philippines for the American Idol Live Tour, Sanchez shot a music video for the song "Jump In" with The Black Eyed Peas members. She has also signed up to endorse Jollibee Foods Corporation and Bench, two popular brands in the Philippines.
Sanchez will be returning to television as she takes on a recurring role in the fourth season of Glee.
Phillip Phillips
American Idol winner Phillip Phillips' boyish charm, good looks and singing ability catapulted his American Idol coronation song, "Home," to No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, the first time in four years a coronation single from an American Idol winner had reached the top 10.
"Home" went on to be used in the 2012 Summer Olympics, a Clint Eastwood trailer, and a number of commercials. The song has been bouncing in and out of the top 10 and most recently (January 2013) hit No. 6.
His album "The World From the Side of the Moon" debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 charts in November 2012 and has already been certified gold.
Phillips' will be joining Matchbox Twenty on their North American tour in 2012 and plans to do a solo tour later this summer.
Dim the lights please!
The lights were anything but dim Saturday night as the American Idol Live Tour 2012 made it's way through Sacramento's Power Balance Pavilion.
With an arena full of fans, both young and old, the top 10 Idols of last season came out to show everyone that they have what it takes to be in the biz.
If you don't recall the finalist for last season they were:
Phillip Phillips (Winner)
Jessica Sanchez (Runner-up)
Joshua Ledet (3rd place)
Hollie Cavanagh (4th place)
Skylar Laine (5th place)
Elise Testone (6th place)
Colton Dixon (7th place)
DeAndre Brackensick (8th place)
Heejun Han (9th place)
Erika Van Pelt (10th place)
It was quite obvious that 16 year old Jessica and 17 year old DeAndre are an item, with the two of them showing up backstage arm in arm with DeAndre's younger sister in tow. You could tell sis was having a good time, much different from the last time I saw her on American Idol crying because her brother was voted out.
The top 10 (less Phillips) kicked off the show with Chemical Romance's "Sing." The entire first set went for a little over 50 minutes.
Deandre soloed with Stevie Wonder's "Master Blaster," followed by Hollie and Skylar singing Carrie Underwood's "Undo It."
You can see the entire set list below for both the first and second acts. The second act was closer to 60 minutes.
The standout in the first act was Colton singing his original song "Never Gone." It appeared many of the fans in attendance had heard the song before since they were singing parts of the song.
After a brief intermission, act 2 started with Jessica singing three songs with supporting vocals from Deandre and Joshua.
A surprise for me in the second act was Hollie's rendition of Adel's "Rolling in the Deep." She did a superb job and proved to me she's got much more talent than I saw on the show. From the audiences reaction, most would agree.
Phillips was absent most of the show, when he took the stage he started off with Stevie Wonder's "Superstition." As excited as the audience was when Phillips finally took the stage, it would have been a much better experience from a fans perspective, if he would have performed at least the opener with everyone else.
Some things never change as Phillips continued his gum chewing ways. In between versus you could see Phillips chewing on a big wad of gum. As much as people like Phillips sticking to being himself, I would suggest losing the gum onstage, it just doesn't work.
Phillips performed his original song "Home," with Colton and Deandre providing backing vocals.
For the finale all 10 idols came out singing "Glad You Came."
There were a few glitches with choreography, some individuals could have done better with vocals, but all in all it was a great show. Considering this was their 10th show I would have expected some of the "glitches" to have been worked out, but I'm sure they are being run into the ground with interviews and public appearances.

Assembly with a Hinge
Application ID: 10569
In mechanical assemblies, parts are sometimes connected so that they are free to move relative to each other in one or more degrees of freedom. Examples of such connections are ball joints, hinges, and different types of bearings. If the details of the connection are not the subjects of the analysis, it is often possible to model the connection using the Rigid Connector feature in COMSOL Multiphysics. This example illustrates how to model a barrel hinge connecting two solid objects in an assembly.

Gold Defeats Cardinal, 123-91
AMES, Iowa – The Iowa State swimming and diving team hosted their annual intrasquad meet in front of a loud and rowdy crowd on Friday at the Beyer Pool. After the cardinal team jumped out to an early lead by claiming the first three events, the gold team stole the momentum by taking eight of the last nine to go onto win 123-91.
The cardinal team took first and second in the 200 IM as junior Sarah Deis and Imelda Wistey finished with times of 2:09:54 and 2:10:47, respectively. Freshman Karyl Clarete, representing the cardinal team, out touched junior Elizabeth Kleiner in the 500 freestyle with a time of 5:02:53.
"We are really happy with Karyl's 500 and 100 free," head coach Duane Sorenson said. "She'll just continue to get better and better."
Junior Amanda Paulson continued her streak of dominance in the 50 freestyle with a first place finish and a time of 23:38 for the gold team.
"Amanda Paulson just lit it up in both the 50 and 100 free," Sorenson said.
Senior Katie Vollhaber, with a time of 1:55:00, touched first in the 200 freestyle ahead of senior Alex Gustafson and freshman Brooke Evensen who turned in times of 1:57:29 and 1:57:32, respectively.
"Katie Vollhaber's 200 free was fantastic," Sorenson said. "She swam a really nice race."
On the boards, Jessica Henderson outscored the rest of the field in both events. The senior took first place by scores of 91.10 on the 1-meter and 100.85 on the 3-meter platform. Sophomore Elyse Brouillette finished in second on the 1-meter with a score of 87.30, while freshman Julie Dickinson took second on the 3-meter with a score of 87.00.
"I thought Jessica (Henderson) did great on both boards," diving coach Jeff Warrick said. "I knew that she had it in her; that competitiveness came out."
To wrap up the contest, Maddie Rastall, Hayley Krzeczowski, Maria Gannon, and Elizabeth Kleiner took first in the 200 freestyle relay with a time of 1:38:83 for the gold team. The cardinal team made it a close race as Karyl Clarete, Megan Childs, Brooke Evensen, and Alex Gustafson touched with a time of 1:39:04.
"As a team, I thought we went out and raced each other really well," said Sorenson. "And that's what we asked them to do."
As the competitive season approaches, Sorenson's and his staff look to continue improving.
"There is always work to do," he says. "In the sport of swimming, you can always find a way to improve."
The Cyclones head to Lincoln, Neb. on Saturday, Oct. 12 to take on Nebraska. The two teams have not meet in dual meet play since the 2011-2012 season.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The tone is growing testy on Capitol Hill after House Republicans floated a plan to counter an emerging Senate deal aimed at ending the partial government shutdown and extending the Treasury's borrowing authority.
The GOP proposal would suspend a new tax on medical devices for two years and take away the federal government's contributions to health care for lawmakers and top administration officials. It would also fund the government through Jan. 15 and give Treasury the ability to borrow normally through Feb. 7.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who has been involved in negotiations with Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, blasted the House GOP plan as an attack on bipartisanship and vowed it would not pass the Senate.
That drew an angry response from Sen. John McCain, who accused Reid of "piling on." He's urging Reid to view the GOP plan as a good faith offer.

I had Zimbra on a machine.
Got problems with that machine and finished up reinstalling winxp and applying SP2 and SP3.
After all that Zimbra is gone from the Programs list (and the desktop).
And half the C: drive is gone, too. It was a small 20G drive and now it is shown as only 10G - with a mere 100MB free. Bad news.
DOS doing a dir * /s reported about 9Gig of files and 100M free.
Sequoia view reports it as a 20G drive but shows only 9G of files - and nil free (virtually).
Windirstat reports C: as a 9.5G drive - with 100M free.
I'm thinking maybe my missing 10G have gone into Zimbra somehow.
Could that be possible? Can I get it back? Can I find it? Can I see it?
Where does Zimbra keep its files?

The United Way of East Mississippi didn't quite meet its historic fundraising goal for this year. But the organization still raised a record amount in giving from the community itself.
At its 2013 Annual Meeting, United Way officials announced a final fundraising total of $925,000.
It fell below the ambitious $1 million goal it had set. But United Way officials say they still raised more during this year's campaign than has ever been raised in this community .
The more than $960,000 raised for 2012 included a $100,000 grant that was not part of the picture this time around.
"We'll reconvene soon after this meeting and come up with a plan for the upcoming year, 2013-2014," said board chairman John Anderson. "And hopefully we can have as robust a goal next year as we did this year and be even more successful."
Anderson Regional Hospital was presented with the Community Cup this year for raising $100,000.
Betty Lou Jones was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award from the organization.

Angel Feathers Ultra SoftFace CoversThese fitted face covers are made of ultra soft polar fleece. The long-lasting texture retains its softness and shape. Use this product to protect massage table upholstery and increase the comfort of your clients. These fit most face cradle pads. Available in white, blue, pink, chocolate, lavender, cream and sage.Cleaning Instructions:
I had ordered one of these face cradles about a year and a half ago and was very impressed with it. Thick and very soft like quality polar fleece. So I ordered two more, but the newer versions are very disappointing. Though soft, they are made from much thinner material, such that my fleece face cradle cover is almost visible through them! I hope they will go back to the original higher quality design.
I have been using these face cradle covers for years and have loved them. Can't say they don't pill, because over time they have but initially they are very nice. My complaint with the most recent order is the stupid feather tag the manufacturer applied on the outside of the face cradle cover. I would have been okay if they wanted to put it inside the cover, but outside?! The label sticks straight out from the face cradle and as far as I'm concerned takes away from the professional look of my table. I'm not trying to make a name brand fashion statement with my headrest covers. I'm looking for client comfort. I like the covers . . . hate the label! Please Angel Feathers, lose the label on the outside of the cover!
I also like them Better than the one i got when i went to school it fits perfectly going to order more n love the price too.
I use these covers on top of the Earthlight fleece cover and my clients and I could not be happier. I just ordered more. I use the laundromat and these don't pill or anything.
I bought three of these when I opened my studio six months ago. I'm ordering three more. These look and feel so nice, and wash beautifully, that I hate to use my owl flannel ones any more. Worth the price.

Today I was a demon.(Crouched in the shadows / Breath held; a guard walks below / Earnest blade whispers)I skulked vents and slunk along ceilings, watched my prey walk beneath me unaware. Every victim was bait for the next; his body dropped into a conspicuous puddle of light or hanged from a post in the path of a foe, where it's likely to be seen.

Mark of the Ninja is a 2-D stealth game developed by Klei Entertainment. That's right, a 2-D stealth game. This seems odd on paper but it's pulled off with an astounding degree of success.

Mark of the Ninja Review 0
The stealth action genre has long been an echo chamber unto itself. While many games have integrated its core ideas, its pure form hasn't evolved much since Metal Gear 2 on the MSX. It's a genre that many critics have argued relies too heavily on trial-and-error, exists as puzzle games in action-game skin. Mark of the Ninja shrugs these distinctions off while living inside them. It's a smart title that promotes a different a different kind of stealth: action not patience; the hunter, not the pre...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.

I've always had a few problems with stealth games. While I enjoy the genre as a whole (I'm pretty sure I've owned all of the Splinter Cell games at some point or another), I don't think I've ever played a stealth game where the actual stealth mechanics felt right.

Video: Church shooting suspect arrested at Macy's at Lenox Square
Video: World Changers church shooting suspect's home searched
Video: World Changers Church shooting suspect waives first appearance
Video: Church shooter has lengthy criminal record
ATLANTA -- The suspect in the deadly shooting at World Changers Church International is scheduled to make a first appearance Friday.
It was supposed to be Thursday morning, but Floyd Palmer waived his first appearance then changed his mind.
PHOTOS | Shooting at World Changers Church International
MORE | Shock, sadness on social media after shooting
Palmer has been charged with homicide murder, felony murder, aggravated assault murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a felony.
While he did not appear Thursday, family members of shooting victim Greg McDowell did make it to court. McDowell's mother broke down sobbing while waiting to go inside. She kept saying, "My baby, my baby, he's dead, he's dead."
"The family's just asking prayer for them at this time," Sunshine Lewis, with Fulton County Victims Services, said on the family's behalf.
McDowell, a 39-year-old father of two, was leading prayer during a Bible study in the World Changers' chapel when police said he was shot at point-blank range.
RELATED | Remembering Greg McDowell
Congregants said they recognized Palmer as the shooter right away. The 51 year old used to work at the church and resigned in August supposedly for "personal reasons".
McDowell was a long time member and volunteer at the church.
Police sources tell 11Alive News it's not yet clear if he was targeted or what kinds of relationship he had with Palmer, if any.
U.S. Marshals arrested Palmer at the Starbucks inside Macy's at Lenox Square Wednesday afternoon, hours after the shooting at Pastor Creflo Dollar's megachurch in south Fulton County.
RELATED | Creflo Dollar addresses church after shooting
Overnight, officers executed a search warrant on his Riverdale apartment and called in the Clayton County bomb squad over concerns his door may have been booby-trapped.
"There was some sort of obstruction behind the door that apparently set off an alarm," said John Schneller with Clayton County Police. "So in the interest of safety, they backed out, called the explosive ordinance division." There was no bomb.
11Alive News has learned Palmer, who used to work at World Changers, has a history of mental health issues and a police record in Maryland.
In 2004, he pleaded guilty to a count of assault and carrying a handgun. He was also charged with the use of a handgun in the commission of a crime and attempted murder in connection with that incident in Baltimore.
He spent time at a mental health facility for those crimes.
11Alive asked Fulton County Sheriff's officials on Thursday if Palmer had undergone any kind of mental health evaluation with this latest shooting. We were told that type of information could not be disclosed at this point.

First ? should that entry be nat's private address as it is, or should it be the public ip of my DSL.
Ok so here is my first problem.
I can "telnet localhost 25" and conect to the mail server, but when I "telnet 192.168.100.10 25" I get connection refused. I have iptables off for testing. And I can get web part of zimbra so I can connect to 192.168.100.10 to connect to other services just fine.
So what have I done wrong.
FYI, this is only temorary till I move the box to the datacenter. But I'd like to get it working and test zimbra before I move it.

Regulators killed San Onofre, not engineers
A common complaint from business owners, echoed by politicians from time to time, is the high cost of government regulation. They have a point.
A great example sits west of Interstate 5, inside the hulking domes of the San Onofre nuclear power plant, which has generated an unpaid bill for $4.3 billion although it will never sell another electron.
Without question, San Onofre's steam generators have serious technical problems. But the decision to abandon the plant was a regulatory and political calculation. It wasn't a technical decision, not by a long shot.
More will be revealed by a lawsuit that seems inevitable between Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which made the steam generators, and Southern California Edison, the plant's operator and majority owner.
San Diego Gas & Electric co. owns 20 percent — on Friday the utility filed its own lawsuit against Mitsubishi — so that means we consumers are on the hook, too.
In the meantime, the forces are assembling on the legal battlefield.
Last week Edison formally disputed a $137.5 million cap on Mitsubishi's liability under its contract and warranty.
Mediation seems bound to fail, because Edison argues that the failure of Mitsubishi's generators caused an overall cost that exceeds the warranty.
Mitsubishi has zero desire to expose itself to the cost of an entire nuclear plant every time it builds a component. The Japanese company is a global conglomerate that has installed 116 generators similar to San Onofre's.
So Mitsubishi is essentially arguing, "Yeah, we screwed up. But we offered to fix your nuke, Mr. Edison, and you said 'no'."
It's a pretty powerful argument.
Edison bought its steam generators as part of a 2009 retrofit. The old ones were supposed to last until 2022, but corrosion ruined too many of the generators' thousands of narrow metal tubes.
The tubes convert superheated water from the nuclear reactors into steam, which drives power-producing turbines.
Mitsubishi's retrofit plan had been used in dozens of similar plants. The plan used a more corrosion-resistant alloy, but added hundreds of tubes because the new alloy was less efficient in transferring heat.
After much discussion, and the addition of supports to reduce vibration in the long, narrow tubes, Edison signed off on the plan as the lead designer.
But last year radioactive steam leaked from San Onofre's Unit 3. The tubes were vibrating in a direction that had never been seen before, causing them to hit each other and wear catastrophically.
At this point Edison decided to also keep Unit 2 offline until officials figured out what to do. In June, 16 months later, Edison CEO Ted Craver announced that San Onofre's shutdown was permanent.
Mitsubishi maintains that Unit 2 probably could have restarted and run successfully for years, because its design was slightly different and tube wear was close to normal ranges. And it says Unit 3 can be repaired in about four years.
"We were developing a 100 percent fix," said Frank Gillespie, a top U.S. executive for Mitsubishi's nuclear division.
I have no idea whether Unit 2 is really OK to restart, as Gillespie suggests it might. Both companies are keeping details secret.
But I am confident that Mitsubishi could replace its steam generators successfully. After all, the old ones lasted decades. And similar designs are working all over the world.
That's not to say the company didn't royally screw up.
Last month I wrote a column questioning whether the steam tube failures suggested that engineers had grown too reliant on computer modeling vs. physical testing, because Mitsubishi had identified a mistake in its computer modeling of steam velocities. At the time, both companies refused to comment.

1971 Dodge Challenger Race Car - The Cotton ConnectionWritten by on October 18, 2006 Psychadelic 1971 Challenger Race Car • Injected Hemi • Original Body-In-White • Clutchflite Transmission • Lexinton, VA
Barn finds and vintage race cars seem to make everyone's heart beat just a little bit quicker, increasingly rare as they are these days. For W.D. Goad of Lexington, Virginia, coming upon this Dodge Challenger in July 2005 was completely unexpected. At the time, W.D. was working on restoring a Burgundy Red '68 Hemi Charger and had begun a search to find out if the original motor was still around.
"That's a long story," says W.D. with a grin. "I was searching the title history and had tracked down the original owner-Robert Crocker. His exwife had sold the Charger during their divorce proceedings." The engine was indeed still around, and Robert had put it to good use. He was a hands-on Mopar guy from Spartanburg, South Carolina, who spent his spare time working for NASCAR legend Cotton Owens. (Robert's real job was with the phone company.) After doing a bit of street racing with his Charger, he bit the bullet in 1971 and asked Cotton to help him build something a little stronger. The result is what you see here. This is not just some old acid-tripper from back in the day; it is a real Owens-built Gas-class drag machine, complete with parts and pieces from some of the biggest names in Mopar history.
The project started life with a factory-supplied body-in-white '71 Challenger that was one of two such cars Cotton picked up directly from Detroit in the spring of 1971; the other one was reportedly turned into a street machine.
When the Challenger was started, the Hemi came out of the Charger at that point and was rebuilt for this car. It would benefit from some serious speed parts that likely originated from Ted Spehar's workshop through the late Don Carlton, including a set of Hilborn injectors, a tach-drive Ramchargers magneto, and Ramchargers motor plates. Carlton also came through with a Lakewood bellhousing for the Clutchflite transmission and a factory narrowed-and-assembled Dana 60, complete with a 5.38 gear set. Then Sox & Martin sold Robert a Milodon oil pan outfit and a set of Airhart front disc brakes; the worked 727 Torqueflite came directly from Fairbanks.
Meanwhile, Cotton and his crew were busy on the body and suspension. Working with plans supplied by Carlton, they built a drag-racing cage similar to that used in the '71 Motown Missile, but added a few NASCAR tricks to it. Since the car was not going to be raced in Pro Stock, the rear floor and seat area are completely open (no metal behind the driver's area or between the wheeltubs). The car also got a rack-and-pinion steering outfit and some reworking of the firewall for engine placement.
The price on the wild paint job is something that Robert couldn't recall, though he did remember he brought airbrush artist Doug James a case of beer every few days as it was being sprayed. Doug, from Lyman, South Carolina, outdid himself, putting on layers of multihued lacquer in all sort of cosmic shapes. The finishing touch was a mural painted on the decklid.
The new '72 models came out before the Dodge was finished, so a '72 grille and rear panel were added as well. The car was raced, but only briefly. In addition to cranking off a few easy passes at Spartanburg Dragway, Robert admitted it may have jousted on the city streets a time or two.
However, Robert's wife became pregnant in 1972 and with those new responsibilities, he pulled the engine and transmission out of the car and parked it in the garage until the day W.D. Goad came calling looking to finish up his Hemi car.
"I really only wanted the motor," says W.D. "This thing and a bunch of parts were sitting there, but Robert really wasn't interested in selling just one piece-it was all or nothing. So we ended up reaching a price we could both live with, and I dragged all this stuff back home. I was originally thinking about converting the Challenger into a Pro Stock clone with Motown Missile-type paint since the paint that is on it is pretty crazy. However, now I'm considering keeping it the way it is as a history piece."
W.D. is no stranger to drag racing, including IHRA's radical Pro Mod class. A body and paint shop owner by trade, he has spent his recent years in more street-based programs. Meanwhile, the engine that had been in this car was obviously going back into the restoration, meaning another Hemi would have to go into the Challenger.
W.D. says, "I had a few pieces, including a '67 model race Hemi that Marvin Hughes built for Super Stock racing. We pulled all the race parts off the '68 motor and swapped them onto that engine. I figured out how the injectors worked, and, with some help from the internet, fired up the motor before we put it down into the car."
Since the car has sat since 1972, things like the transmission and brakes will need to be gone through before the car is ready for a blast down the quarter-mile. However, this Challenger is a time capsule of early '70s race technology with a little circle track engineering thrown in for good measure, and proves there are still rare cars out there. You just have to locate them, and, like W.D., you may end up getting more than you bargained for.
Fast Facts
'71 Challenger Race Car &bull: W.D. Goad • Lexington, VA
Mopar Power
The Challenger had the original Hemi out of the Charger that W.D. was restoring, but he had to buy the entire car in order to get it. Once home, he decided to replace the engine with a '67 vintage RO mill built by Marvin Hughes, using the old race parts such as the Hilborn injectors, Ramchargers magneto and motorplate, Milodon oil pan, and the Hooker headers from the first Hemi.
Transmission: Since it is a race car with a lot of Hemi under the hood, Fairbanks Performance Transmissions built the 727 in 1971, turning it into a ClutchFlite. It's not very street friendly, but it doesn't need to be. A Lakewood bellhousing holds it to the Hemi, and was there to keep things from flying all over the track and into the driver's compartment if it came apart.
Rearend: Do you remember when you could order a prebuilt and narrowed Dana 60 directly through Mopar Performance? it was an option, and one Cotton and Robert took advantage of. It's filled with 5.38 gears, and we're pretty sure they are not mounted on an open differential.
Horsepower & Performance: Although no one seems to remember how fast the car ran during its few passes down the track, we would really like to hear about the "jousting" that was done on the street.
Sure Grip
Suspension: In 1971, the Challenger was built for one purpose-racing. The front suspension is basically stock, with the addition of a rack-and-pinion steering system. the inner fenders were removed, which meant the new shock mounts had to be added to the chrome-moly cage struts. The rear suspension is all old-school mopar with a Dana 60 and leaf springs. It all hangs from custom-built framerails.
Brakes: Although state of the art in 1971, the Airhart brake system is still on the car, which makes W.D. a bit nervous about making a full pass in the car. The single pot master cylinder operates the Airhart discs up front and the factory drums on the rear.
Wheels: In 1971, aluminum slots were all the rage. They're still on the car. So are the American 10-spokes in front.
Rubber: Nothing but vintage stuff here. Good Year 8.00-15.00x15-inch slicks on the back, and standard street rubber up front. These are the same tires installed in 1971.
High Impact
Body: Chrysler body-in-white, designed specifically for race car applications. This is one of two shipped to Cotton Owens' place. The whereabouts of the other is unknown.
Paint: It was the '70s, man, nothing but hallucinogen-induced colors used. We're not sure where painter Doug James got his inspiration, but he was definitely inspired.
Interior: It's all race car and unrestored. A roll cage, a couple switches, a couple gauges, and one seat are all that was required. The absence of a rear floor aids in emergency escape if the car lands on its lid. We're sure that's not the reason the floor is gone, but it sounds good to us.

The motor that resides in the car came from a '67 RO/WO race Hemi project. It's now fortified with all the race parts that had been on the other engine back in the day. W.D. originally just wanted to buy the engine from the Challenger because it was the correct one for his Charger resto. To get the engine, he had to buy everything, and the Ro engine replaces the removed Charger engine. Confused yet?In 1972, this master cylinder aided in slowing down at 150 mph. it's also one of the reasons why the car has not yet gotten down the track since its discovery. W.D. thinks it would be safer to upgrade it.Originally built by Cotton Owens in 1971, this is a drag car that has not been on the racetrack since 1972. We're not even sure how much daylight it's seen. Dig that farout paint job, man.Hard Parts via the Bus
Among the pieces that W.D. Goad picked up from Robert Crocker were several items that had been purchased as spares and still in the original boxes. Shown here is a full-tilt, brand-new Hemi crankshaft still in the box it came in. it was shipped via a Continental Trailways bus on 3-12-72 from Petty Enterprises in Randleman, North Carolina, to Cotton Owens Enterprises in Spartanburg. In the days before FedEx, we'd have to say this method of shipping was . . . well, enterprising!When's the last time you saw one of these? Ok, how many of you actually know what it is? It's a timing retard/advance. The driver could retard the timing to help start the engine, and during a run, he could advance it for more power. It's a precursor to the electronic timing controls of today.

Another medical group is asking Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant to expand Medicaid.
The Mississippi Chapter of the American College of Physicians sent Bryant a letter Friday, saying the state would benefit from additional federal money. The group has 569 members who practice internal medicine or subspecialties. It also has 351 medical students as members.
The Mississippi Academy of Family Physicians already has endorsed Medicaid expansion, as have several hospital administrators.
Republican Bryant remains opposed. His spokesman, Mick Bullock, says the state can't afford for one-third of its residents to enroll in the government insurance program.
Under the 2010 federal health overhaul, states have the option of expanding Medicaid to people making up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level, or about $15,000. Mississippi's current cutoff is about $5,500.

Love the type! Good job! Love the quote from the good doctor!
Thank you! ♥
lol this is great!
Thank you! :)
Thank you ♥
Not sure if you know this, but i'm pretty sure the quote is incorrect. I think it should be "or make them unimportant" instead of "and make them unimportant." That's what I hear, at least. And it just makes more sense. I may buy it anyway thought because this is definitely one of my favorite quotes. :)
Thank you lnr618. I looked up the quote on multiple sites and they all got it wrong. I just went back and listened to the episode and you are right; it should be 'or make them unimportant'. I am in the process of updating everything to make it correct. Thank you so much for catching that! It's one of my favorite quotes too. If you do end up buying one...Thank you!
Great! I'm definitely going to buy it and hang it in my dorm room. Thanks!!
Oh this is so brilliant. It looks perfect. I love it.
Thanks so much SixPixelDesign!

AKRON -- The forfeiture and sentencing hearing for former Cuyahoga County Commissioner Jimmy Dimora has concluded for Monday.
Here a look at the developments in the hearing. Court will resume on Tuesday morning.
5:52 p.m. Lioi adjourned the hearing for the day and court resumes at 9 a.m. Tuesday morning.
5:47 p.m. Lisa Dimora said the most memories she had was from the father-daughter dances and that her father gave her the best advice. She said the extended family came to their house a lot, both in Bedford Heights and in Independence. He cared and supported his wife Lori and cared and supported his family. She said she has never seen her father degrade her mother and always remmebered birthdays and anniversaries.
5:41 p.m. Next witness on the stand is Lisa Dimora, his daughter. She said she is the worst clarinet player ever but her father still came and supported her at her concerts. Said her father came to all the sporting events and also helped out at After-Prom when his children were in high school.
5:33 p.m. Andrew Getner, a police officer for Cleveland and North Randall police departments, took the stand wearing slacks and a greenish polo shirt. He said he's been childhood friends with Dimora. He said he has never heard a bad word ever said about Dimora. If your basement was flooded, Dimora would help out. If your child was sick, he would go visit the child. Getner says that people thought Dimora was "the greatest guy they've ever met."
Getner said Dimora attended funerals of relatives of his citizens.
5:24 p.m. Character witness John Teron, who lives next door to Dimora on Forestwood Drive in Independence, is a carpenter. Teron is the father of three children and he moved to the Forestwood Drive neighborhood a few years before Dimora did. He said his family and the Dimoras went to each others' parties, they were good neighbors. He said that in 2000, when he was in Honduras for Christmas and New Year's, the Dimoras invited the Terons over for the holiday meals.
5:17 p.m. Dimora's attorneys brought in William J. Day, an attorney who says he has known Dimora for 23 years. Day said that when he ran for judge, Dimora helped him with the campaign. Day's son has disabilities and Dimora helped him get jobs with the county. He was asked if his son Rob was still employed by Cuyahoga County. Day said no. "The new regime has slaughtered thousands of employees," Day said.
5:14 p.m. Saunders said he often saw Dimora with his wife Lori and his children a lot of the time. Saunders said Dimora established the Bedford Heights Home Days.
5:07 p.m. Saunders said Dimora started numerous programs for senior citizens, the Seniors-Plus program, got the city to build playgrounds and ballfields, and the main recreation center was built under Dimora. Saunders said Dimora had to fight council because the council didn't want to spend the money at that time.
5:01 p.m. Philip Saunders, president of Bedford Heights City Council, is on the witness stand, testifying on behalf of Dimora. Says Dimora helped ease racial tensions, had a true love for senior citizens, helped upgrade or actually build recreation centers in the city. Said that Dimora got both blacks and whites togther and made them work together for the betterment of the city and its citizens.
5 p.m. Judge Lioi is ruling on the final figures for the several issues brought up today to see how much Jimmy Dimora will be liable for in this forfeiture hearing. Lioi said that there are some people whom the defense wants to call for witnesses right now. Then, Lioi said she will adjourn for the evening and resume at 9 a.m. Tuesday.
4:50 p.m. Court and attorneys are now discussing the Michael Gabor divorce and how Dimora suggested that Gabor talk to J. Kevin Kelley for help and Gabor paid $10,000 to Kelley to bribe the judge in the case, all done through Mark Dottore. Court says that the Dimora was involved.
4:36 p.m. U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon said that Dimora knew about the scheme by Frank Russo to have a sham candidate Joe Gallucci run against Russo for Auditor, and then Russo hired Gallucci in his department and that Dimora, as commissioner, did not vote against Russo's annual budget at any time once he knew that Russo had been bribing Gallucci to run against him.
4:18 p.m. Court finds that, through no fault of the government, the amounts in the phone call were not substantiated as to who would be paid what for GreenSource so the court rules that it will move on through this issue
4:10 p.m. Listening to a phone call between former Cuyahoga County Auditor Frank Russo and Jimmy Dimora discussing how GreenSource can become the supplier for some insulation product for the new Cuyahoga County Juvenile Justice Center. U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon said Pumper didn't have an ownership stake in GreenSource because of his impending divorce.
4:06 p.m. Judge Lioi is asking for more clarification on the GreenSource profits as they relate to money to be attributed to Jimmy Dimora as part of the corruption scheme. Steve Pumper was not an employee of GreenSource.
4:02 p.m. Judge Lioi asked for a sidebar conference with attorneys from both sides, then they are playing one of the phone calls from the trial regarding Steve Pumper's property between Dimora and Pumper.
3:45 p.m. Court took an afternoon break and is resuming at about 3:55 p.m.
2:46 p.m.: Judge Sara Lioi and U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon are reconciling their respective lists of bribes, like the cost of hotel room at the Mirage, the cost of a prostitute, the cost of dinners in Las Vegas, $6,000 in cash to Frank Russo for Las Vegas, $1,000 worth of gaming chips for co-defendant Michael Gabor and other items.
2:07 p.m.: Watching from the courtroom gallery or from the media room during the Dimora trial, the view we all had was from the back of the courtroom and was a static camera. In this instance, our plasma screen is utilizing all of the courtroom cameras and we usually have a view from the witness stand back into the courtroom. We are now seeing all the attormeys and Dimora from the front and are able to see expressions on their faces. The reason we had the different, static view during the trial was so we would not be able to see the jury unless we were actually in the courtroom. There is no jury in the courtroom for this hearing.
2 p.m.: As this session continues, Jimmy Dimora has been writing almost non-stop since Judge Sara Lioi returned to the courtroom. He has turned around once to look at his wife Lori sitting in the gallery. It appears that nearly every person who was in the courtroom this morning has returned for the afternoon session. There are just a few empty seats in the gallery. Dimora's family and friends all returned for the afternoon session.
1:55 p.m.: Asked various courtroom players what they thought would be the time by when Judge Sara Lioi would pronounce the sentence and the consensus was that this will last until very late today, likely a sentence in the 5-6 p.m. time frame. That is not an official estimate, just a consensus of opinions from various people.
1:43 p.m.: Judge Sara Lioi has resumed the hearing for Jimmy Dimora with Lioi asking U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon aout all the schemes and asked Bacon to focus on Alternatives Agency and defendant Robert Rybak. This is more about the forfeiture hearing that began this morning.
1:32 p.m.:Court is about to resume as Dimora's family and friends have already returned to the courtroom, as have the U.S. Attorneys, and most of the spectators. Dimora has also returned with his attorney Bill Whitaker. None of the courtroom personnel nor U.S. District Judge Sara Lioi have returned.
12:34 p.m.: Judge calls lunch break. Court will resume at 1:34 p.m.
12:21 p.m.: Jimmy Dimora is now sitting sideways in his chair at the defense table, facing the center of the courtroom, and rubbing his face with his right hand, then leaning back in his chair with his arms crossed across his chest . Dimora also appears to be scratching a spot on his inner left elbow repeatedly during this hearing...audience members in the gallery have been fidgeting in thier seats, as many said during the earlier break that they thought the sentencing would take about an hour and didn't expect to have to listen to the arguments between the defense and the government regarding what Dimora will have to forfeit.
12:15 p.m.: U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon contends that a dinner at Delmonico's steak house in Independence was not set as a meeting for discussion of funding Alternatives Agency but just an excuse for "dinner at Delmonico's" where Dimora could get another free dinner on someone else's tab...Bacon said the full amount of the dinner should be considered as a part of the overall bribes....
12:10 p.m.: Defense attorney Andrea Whitaker is arguing that the amount of the contract for Alternatives Agency and how it involved Brian Schuman and J. Kevin Kelley should not be included in the "value received" by Jimmy Dimora as it relates to forfeiture. Now they say they may move on to the Coe Lake project. Judge Lioi has yet to call a break for lunch.
11:47 a.m.: Dimora looks very tired and just yawned twice as U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon continues to defend the higher dollar amount for what the sentence should reflect. The courtroom gallery audience mostly has blank looks on their faces at the two attorneys make detailed legal arguments, citing case law.
11:16 a.m.: Dimora is now sitting back in his chair and has just removed his glasses, rubbed his face, and replaced his glasses. He is now resting his on his right hand and folding his arms across his chest. Defense attorney Andrea Whitaker is objecting to other amounts ascribed to Dimora as having received. U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon says that Dimora asked for campaign contributions and similarly, asked for others items.
11:04 a.m.: Defense attorney Andrea Whitaker continues to object to various amounts ascribed to the value of things in the amounts like the bribes, the cost of the prostitutes, the amounts of the limousine services (attributed to Dimora) and other amounts.
10:45 a.m.: Courtroom observers tell us hearing could take quite a while.
8 a.m. Dimora arrived in a wheelchair accompanied by a United States Marshal who was carrying a walker just after 8 a.m.
Other key players arrived shortly thereafter including Dimora's defense team. When asked about the sentencing Andrea Whitaker said she hoped the judge considered everything they put before her.
Dimora's family did not comment as they arrived and appeared somber according to court observers.
Original post/background: Dimora will be sentenced by U.S. District Judge Sara Lioi.
Dimora, 57, of Independence was found guilty of 33 of 34 counts on March 9 and was immediately taken into federal custody. Weeks later, Lioi dismissed one of the counts as redundant so sentencing was on 32 counts.
Except for spending three days in St. Elizabeth Hospital in Youngstown following a fall, he has been in the Northeast Ohio Correctional Institution since then.
U.S. Attorneys have asked for a sentence "in excess of 22 years." The U.S. Probation Service has recommended a life sentence. Dimora's attorneys, the father-daughter team of Bill and Andrea Whitaker, have asked for "far below" the 22 years.
Dimora served as the Cuyahoga County Commissiner until December 2010, after being elected in November 1998. He also served as the chairman of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party.
He started his political career as a Bedford Heights City Councilman for several years and then was elected mayor.

I am in WEEK SIX of my Couch to 5K training program.
My pals Susan and Anetra joined me on our "jog" this morning.
This is what Week 6 can look like:
-- 5 minute warm up
-- Jog for 10 minutes, walk for 1 minutes
-- Jog for 8 minutes, walk 2 minutes
-- A 5 minute cool down
Today's going to be the hardest workout yet. It's a 20 minute jog with no walk breaks. But I need to ramp things up. My 5K is only 3 weeks away. And I want you to come run with me. Susan is! Anetra is! We are running -- or run/walking -- the Glow-In-The-Dark fun run at RFK stadium. It is Friday, November 9. LivingSocial has partnered with Mercy Corps to use a portion of proceeds to deliver a-thousand solar lanterns to school children in need in Somalia.
I'm assembling a team to do the fun-run with me! Not everyone is going to run the entire time. We're up to about 10 people right now. Looking for a team name. Want join up? Hit me up on Facebook, Twitter, or email me at email@example.com.
And you guys are inspiring me to keep at it. Viewer Ron Larkin just finished Week 6. On days when I want to skip my workout, Ron's tweets about his morning runs keep me going.
And another shout out to viewer Mike Reyes. He stopped smoking in 2008 and started cycling. Now he's out there rain or snow. He hit 6,000 miles cycling last year. WOW! Go Mike.
Mike gave me some really good tips I want to share with you. If you are wearing earbuds, keep the music low enough so you can hear passing cars and cyclists. And please wear reflective gear if you run at dawn or dusk.

Farm Fatal Accident Near Kingsley
(Kingsley) -- A farm accident has claimed a life of a rural Pierson man on Tuesday evening. At about 10:20 p.m. emergency services responded to a call at the 2800 block of Tamarack Avenue when apparently a tractor was fully submerged in a river. The Plymouth County Dive Team, as part of the Plymouth County sheriff's department was activated and found 48 year old David Klingensmith pinned under the tractor in the water. Apparently, Klingensmith was driving his tractor south on Tamarack Avenue. As the tractor approached a bridge, there was a pickup truck parked on the north side of the bridge. Two people were standing on the bridge fishing off the side. Klingensmith swerved to avoid a collision with the parked vehicle and went down an embankment and rolled into the river. Klingensmith drowned and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Plymouth County Medical Examiner. The Iowa State Patrol is investigating the accident. The sheriff's office was assisted by the Kingsley Police Department, Kingsley Fire and Rescue, Kingsley Ambulance, and Mercy Air Care. Rescue units were on the scene for nearly four hours.

This placement unit is facilitated through partnership with Barwon Health's Mental Health, Drug and Alcohol Services (MHDAS) and Eastern Health.
Pre-clinical training is provided through a series of workshops as well as on-site training and practice in enacting public health policies and procedures, through a variety of activities, including client simulation tasks. Students will gain an active understanding and competence in mandatory training modules that clinicians who work in public health require, e.g.: aggression management, suicide prevention, record keeping, etc.
The placement enables students to observe MHDAS facilities, staff and clients together with participating in assessment and treatment planning. Students will gain active experience in engaging with clients; undertaking and writing up MSE, case formulation, record keeping, operating as part of a busy multidisciplinary team, and building communication and interpersonal skills with other health professionals. It is expected that for this unit students will undertake either an adult OR a child/adolescent placement.
The placement program will be established jointly by the student, the placement coordinator, and the practitioners supervising the placement. This will include the minimum amount of face-to-face contact time with clients and the minimum supervision requirements. Placement learning contracts will specify learning objectives as well as the responsibilities of the student, the supervisors and the Placement Coordinator. Student's performance will be reviewed at a mid-placement meeting and a final placement meeting will occur. All meetings and paperwork are to be completed and are considered part of the unit requirements. Students will be expected to demonstrate key competencies in ethical and professional frameworks.
The unit includes a Case Analysis seminar, which is attended by all first year clinical students and facilitated by staff. Within this seminar, students will be required to provide a case presentation from their placement experience. This is a formal presentation to peers and staff of the client's symptoms, history, assessments, diagnosis of the disorder using DMS-5, case formulation and a consideration of appropriate treatment strategies consistent with the formulation and evidence based research.

Former Gov. Don Siegelman's daughter has created a petition on the Internet that asks President Barack Obama to grant him clemency.
Dana Siegelman's petition says her father was wrongfully convicted on government corruption charges, and it asks the president to restore justice. She has already received more than 1,200 signatures.
Siegelman's daughter created the petition after a federal judge re-sentenced him a week ago.
U.S. District Judge Mark Fuller sentenced Siegelman to six and one-half years in prison, but he will get credit for nine months already served.
The petition is hosted on Change.org. A link is provided below.
