NEWARK, New Jersey (Reuters) – For most of the four years that have passed since the National Football League awarded the 48th Super Bowl to the New York/New Jersey area, the main topic conversation centered around the weather.
But now, with the game just five days away and no sign of any blizzards, "legacy" has become the buzzword for the title decider between the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks.
More specifically, the legacy of two men – John Elway and Peyton Manning – whose careers have come together through a perfect storm.
Manning won a Super Bowl with Indianapolis seven years ago and is looking to add another title to his stellar career with Denver on Sunday. If successful, he will become the first quarterback to win the Vince Lombardi Trophy with two teams.

Elway won two Super Bowls as a quarterback for the Broncos before retiring in 1999, and was later inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Now, he has the chance to win a third Super Bowl ring, in his new role as the Broncos' vice-president of football operations, an achievement, he said, that would rank alongside his greatest feats on the field.
"It'd be just as important," he told reporters at the Super Bowls' annual media day on Tuesday. "To me, the common denominator is competitiveness and wanting to win.
WATCH: How an NFL game ball is made
"As a player I was very competitive and I'm the same way as an executive."
By his own admission, Elway was not a good spectator, struggling to contain his emotions from the sideline, when he first agreed to take on his new job.
That can be a common problem for great players but Elway said he was learning fast and was really enjoying the new challenges he faced.
"I'm getting better with letting the control go and knowing that there's nothing I can do," he said. "It was tough early, and there's certain games that I look at that for us to be successful, we had to get over it."
EXTRA: Super Bowl circus comes to media day
Elway, 53, is almost old enough to be Manning's father and has quickly formed a special bond with a player who may go down as the greatest quarterback of all time.
Elway was instrumental in luring Manning, 37, to Colorado after he was released by the Indianapolis Colts and while he never had to give the four-time MVP any tips on how to play, he did offer some guidance on how the Broncos operate.
"I just tried to show him what the Denver Broncos are all about," Elway said. "I think that where he was, he was still in shock that he had gotten released by Indianapolis and it was a tough situation there."
Unsurprisingly, Elway takes exception to any suggestion that Sunday's game could impact Manning's legacy because he has won just one Super Bowl so far.
"I don't think this game, one way or the other, affects his legacy the way that he has played," Elway said. "He's going to be one of the all-time greats no matter what."

Describing Slowing Down
(You can hear the original here; the slowdown was achieved by a 20 year old Floridian feeding the track through a free program called "Paul's Extreme Sound Stretch.")
Daniel over at Renewable Music put a precise finger on the situation, comparing it to La Monte Young's attempts to get "inside" the sound. That's what I had been thinking as well. It also reminds me a bit of Steve Reich, especially Different Trains. At any rate, as he and some of his commenters point out, the slowed-down Bieber makes use of techniques--and a mode of listening-- that have been part of experimental and electronic music for ages, and it's nice to hear so many people get into it.
However, when you spend a lot of time with interesting new music, one of the challenges is trying to describe the bizarre sounds being achieved. With canonical classical music one always recourse to technical vocabulary if needed, and there is certainly a lot of new music criticism that just holds still with a technical description of how the sounds are achieved, e.g., "This is the sound of Justin Bieber slowed down 800%" My first class in college was a survey of experimental music taught by the illustrious Alvin Lucier, and he repeatedly drilled into us that we should just describe the sounds we heard without recourse to metaphors or fancy-schmancy romantic adjectives.
But at some point it's nice to move beyond that level of description. And it becomes particularly amusing, and interesting, when it's not your typical new music critics doing so, but random pop culture bloggers out there trying to wrap their ears around a new sound:
"the climactic score to some kind of historical epic...It sounds like the ocean, but, like, in heaven." [Gawker]
"a monstrous but peace-loving ocean's surf as some all-encompassing ethereal chant hums in the language of the whales. Into your brain." [SF Gate]
"something that might be tacked onto the end of a Sigur Ros album or be on one of Enya's more experimental forays into noise." [MTV]
"like standing on the edge of some majestic cliff in the wilds of Ireland feels." [mashable]
"like the ambient soundtrack to an edgy indie film set either in outer space or underwater and helmed by a director who's high on magic mushrooms." [cnet]
"giving him sort of celestial-choirboy quality, while the music becomes almost ludicrously majestic and beautiful." [npr]
As our students all learn on Day 1, describing music is hard!

Thanks for bringing all of this to my attention, Phil. I'd encountered neither the original nor the slowed down version of this song.
I think that, given the meme-ness of this track, it (or using the software to slow-down any other song of your choice) could become a great teaching tool to get at this very issue of technical vs. adjectival description.
Random thought: It's too bad Bieber didn't have his own slow-down machine the other day when he got hit in the head with a water bottle...

Cool post!
I'm reminded of Pauline Oliveros... specifically her "Deep Listening" album. Her use of long tones in a cistern is somewhat similar to the otherworldly quality of the stretched "U smile." Here's a link to a streaming track: http://tinyurl.com/26oxo59
Wow! Never thought I would ever say that I actually like listening to Justin Bieber, but this is pretty cool!!!!!

Obama's entire health care plan struck down by federal judge as unconstitutional – Full Text
Newscast Media HOUSTON, TX– Florida federal judge has struck down Obama's health care plan that would have forced Americans to purchase health care whether they needed it or not. Those who couldn't afford the plan and therefore would buy it, would have been fined for not buying the plan.
Federal Judge Roger Vinson in Florida ruled Monday that the entire health care law is unconstitutional and wrote in his 78-page ruling: "This is obviously a very difficult task. Regardless of how laudable its attempts may have been to accomplish these goals in passing the Act, Congress must operate within the bounds established by the Constitution."
The ruling says, individual mandate, which imposes a fine on individuals who do not purchase health insurance, is unconstitutional and not "severable" from the full law. Therefore, "the entire act must be declared void."
"It is difficult to imagine that a nation which began, at least in part, as the result of opposition to a British mandate giving the East India Company a monopoly and imposing a nominal tax on all tea sold in America would have set out to create a government with the power to force people to buy tea in the first place," the ruling says.
You may read the entire ruling of Judge Vinson here. (PDF)
After Obama signed the highly-contested health care bill, 26 states including Texas filed a lawsuit in opposition to Obamacare. There is no doubt that the ruling by a federal judge of ObamaCare as unconstitutional will provide ammunition for his opponents in the 2012 presidential race.

You can also find reviews, as well as an average five-star rating, on the product page. When reading reviews, note the reviewer's demographic information, including age group, gender, and skin type, which can give you a sense about who is writing the review. Rather than trusting just one review to make your decision, read through all of the reviews to get a sense of what all SkinCeuticals reviewers think about the product. The more research you conduct, the better informed you will be.
It's just as simple to include a review on the SkinCeuticals In Sun Reviews Page. Visit the product page, select the Reviews tab, and then click "Write a Review for This Product."

About this font family
The Roos family is a digitization and expansion of the last typeface designed by Sjoerd Hendrik De Roos, called De Roos Romein (and Cursief). It was designed and produced during the years of the second World War, and unveiled in the summer of 1947 to celebrate De Roos's 70th birthday. In 1948, the first fonts produced were used for a special edition of the Dutch Constitution on which Juliana took the oath during her inauguration as the Queen of the Netherlands. To this day this typeface is widely regarded as De Roos's best design, with one of the most beautiful italics ever drawn. More…

Just fine!!!
what is new about you?
About IlonaSonne
Hello, and Welcome to my Jungle!!! Hihihiiii!!
Just kidding! It's been 3 years since I am in this PR club, and I am so happy that I've made many friends on here, to whom I speak even outside the frameworks of it!
Studying Foreign Languages and Literatures, I understood that there is nothing more important than communication with other people, and working for a long time in a hostel, I've realised that one should understand the cultural sides of every nation, as well as its taste in music. I am happy to meet persons from around the world that really appreciate rock music, and with them I can join and watch every death metal and/or any rock concert that happens in my city (with local bands, of course).
I love acting and photography, as you see. I can't claim that I am a good photographer, but I am better at modelling :D
But still, these old pictures on my account show how I was like a year or two ago. And again, I can't claim that I am better now, but I am different. Physically, emotionally and psychic :D
Music is my passion anyway.
Feel free to add my as a friend, and who knows, maybe some day we will have the chance to see each other in real circumstances :P
I haven't added this to my profile yet

It always seems that someone is looking for someone else to facilitate a CL or eBay purchase...but me? Oh, never!
Well, I thought why not...a thread for those who don't mind facilitating purchases for fellow forum members to say "I'm here if you need me." I'll start a format here, maybe we can get this going? This way folks who might be looking for someone can just search this thread rather than post, unless you can't find someone close here. I list primary and secondary cities...primary for that geographic area you're in, secondary for those areas somewhat close that you'd go to for that "special" item I'm using the cities list from CL because, honestly, CL will drive most of these requests.
Of course, transfer of payment and such can be worked out by the parties after contact, etc.
I'd consider this a work in progress but I'll start...
Username: khatfull
Preferred Contact: PM or e-mail through site.
State(s): Minnesota, Western Wisconsin
Primary CL City: Minneapolis
Secondary CL Cities: Duluth, Eau Claire, Mankato, Rochester, St. Cloud
Items willing to facilitate: small items up to whole bikes
Whatcha think folks? If this proves popular maybe we can get the mods to sticky it for us...
As requested, here is Google map for those who are willing to facilitate to place their location on:
Tabular List of Facilitators
Taken from the list itself, I listed the primary location for each volunteer, check their particular post for other areas. This will get you close though. I will add to this as other folks step up.

Suggested Facilitation Guidelines
The "facilitation" process we have developed here in the C&V forum is one of the most interesting and beneficial things we have going. Being able to have trusted, knowledgeable eyes and hands on an item thousands of miles away PLUS knowing that someone who knows how to pack and ship is helping out is IMHO a fantastic thing. We can widen our nets to Craigslist listings far outside our locally accessible area. Not that I haven't availed myself on several occasions.
Those who have publicly volunteered and that do so privately do us a great service, asking little or nothing in return for the time in purchasing, packing, and shipping our treasures.
I thought it might be helpful to put together some suggested guidelines. I guess since I started the "facilitators thread" I get PMs on occasion asking how to initiate the process, how it works, etc. In the end, the arrangement is unique between two individuals and those individuals are free to come to any arrangement they like. My point here is to hopefully answer some questions or at least list some of the things you might want to consider when facilitating or looking for a facilitator for that grail bike/part/item.
Having facilitated several items and I think six or seven whole bikes now and having engaged facilitators on several occasions I'm going to add a little commentary as well. I hope it's helpful.
• Does the facilitator have experience shipping the item you're looking for, especially whole bikes? It's a task to undertake and IMHO takes a couple hours to do properly.
• Has the facilitator completed other such transactions in the past?
• How will examination of the item work? The facilitator and buyer should agree on things to looks for when examining the item…stuck stems/seatposts, dings, dents, whatever. People's idea of what "good condition" is can vary. I have taken pics on site and e-mailed to the buyer. I have also had the buyer on the phone while examining the bike. Both work.
• Who will contact the seller of the item and handle that communication? With Craigslist sellers especially sometimes dealing with a local entity is the only acceptable thing….other times not. I have acted as agent totally, I have merely been a pick up guy.
• What shipping method(s) are acceptable? The parties should agree on a method of shipping, FedEx, UPS, USPS, etc. I think it's generally agreed that FedEx Ground, so long as you don't hit their magic box size, is the least expensive and quickest way to ship a whole bike. Others' experiences might be different but I find it to be true as well. Being in the middle of the US helps get bikes to either coast.
• If the facilitator likes or uses only one shipping service he or she should state it. Some people ship from work and have access to only one carrier.
• How long will it take to ship the item? The facilitator should give the buyer an approximate date that they'll be able to ship the item. I try to get small items out in a day or two…bikes within a week. Of course, things get in the way sometimes…I have taken 2.5 weeks to ship a bike but I told the buyer up front that I was busy with work and that was ok with him. I try to keep both a frame sized box and a bike box on hand but sometimes it takes a couple of days to ping all the LBSes to find a proper box.
• What level or type of packaging would the buyer like to see? I mummify the frame in pipe foam and then use the frame to attach bars seatposts/saddles and the like to. There are a couple very good threads in the forums about this, search for miamijim's threads on the subject. Don't forget to block forks and/or dropouts!
• What level of disassembly is acceptable? I like to nearly disassemble the bike completely. Most of us would do so anyway on receipt. Removing the majority of components allows maximum flexibility in locating bars, front wheels, etc. within the shipping box. I usually then pack each component in a plastic bag, bubble wrap, and into a box that then goes into the main shipping box.
• Who will pay for packing materials if cost is incurred? I try to reuse materials as I seem to have as many coming in as out. I also get bubble wrap via the local freecycle list. If I do have to go get pipe foam I let the buyer know up front or if that's even a possibility. Payment for that is nice as it's an out-of-pocket expense. A typical bike takes 3-4 pieces at about $1.25 each. I might also throw in a buck or two for nylon ties as I buy a big bag of 1000 and have them on hand. I probably use 30-50 per bike. I haven't yet had to pay for a box.
This is tough. All the rest is just talk until the exchange of money takes place. In the end this is a transaction of trust. Parties can use past forum posts, our transaction feedback thread in the Sales subforum, ask other members, all sorts of ways to determine the relative reputation of a potential facilitator/buyer.
• How does the seller want to get paid? Some may want cash only in which case the facilitator will need the funds. Some are good with PayPal.
• Does the facilitator want funds for the transaction up front? I generally need to as I don't have a huge bike fund. If I have the funds on hand I ask the buyer to PayPal me. On one occasion I didn't, the bike was a little more costly, and time was of the essence. We chose to use a wire transfer. However, that cost $15 for me to receive so be aware of any costs related to wire transfers.
• How does the buyer get funds to the facilitator? Check, MO, PayPal, wire transfer? Sometimes time is of the essence so that should be considered. PayPal transfers of a balance to a bank account take 3-4 days.
• Does the facilitator expect payment for his or her time, gas, etc.? I never expect nor ask for anything for my time. Doing this is my donation to my bike karma bucket. I'm also a frequent user of facilitator services so I feel I'm giving back as well. Besides, sometimes I get to touchy feely some neato stuff I wouldn't have been able to otherwise.
I hope this helps some of you who might be considering offering your services or trying to avail yourself of the same. I'm sure this is by no means a comprehensive list. I'm very open to suggestions for additions.
In the end, this process is an agreement between two parties who choose to enter into it. I have found one thing to be true and have had it return to me many times over: our mothers were right, the Golden Rule really does work.

Summary:In September of 1972 an unprecedented terrorist attack unfolded live before 900 million television viewers across the globe and ushered in a brave new world of unpredictable violence.

Without warning, an extremist Palestinian group known as Black September invaded the Olympic Village, killing two members of the Israeli Olympic team and capturing nine hostages.

Okay, so Jupiter just seems to freeze and a ton of small detail features become crystal clear during the steadiest moments. We all know the experience, and last night was better than average. Still a few bits of blurred seeing, but more often than not pretty darn nice.
The NTB was clearly bifurcated with the darker feature exhibiting some darker knots. The NEB had several brighter rifts running through it. This is nearly the same CM as a few nights ago, so I looked for similar rift features. They did appear somewhat changed from a previous observation. Either that, or the CM was about 10 degrees off. Still, searching for familiar features was difficult. Makes me wonder if they have changed a bit or whether they moved along the system I.
The long festoon on the meridian is the longest festoon I have personally witnessed. It was long, thin, and very apparent. It almost appeared to reach out for the SEB. A not so faint EZ was seen, too.
The SEB was definitely multi toned with a darker center almost sweeping upward toward the preceding limb. In fact, it had a thinner darker feature running up it's length. The northern edge of the SEB was a bit lighter with very definite brighter spots and a molted appearance. The southern edge of the SEB near the trailing edge was also a bit lighter. I am not sure I have ever seen the SEB this well.
The NPR had two fairly faint bands near the meridian (they are too dark in the sketch.) The SPR had a band stretching across the disc. It varied in tone as shown. A fainter band was briefly seen just below on the preceding edge. Now, remarkably, there was a faint band in the Southern tropical zone on the trailing edge. I believe this is also a first for me.
Now, the night was so good, I decided to include some features I thought I glimpsed. It seems a waste not to go out on a limb to include them when conditions were so good and the adrenaline flowing.
I actually might have glimpsed some ovals in the SPR. Their placement is a bit odd, but I did glimpse something as shown or close to it. And also, one brighter spot in the NPR? Really not sure it's there, but hey...I thought I saw it and am hanging out on that limb, here. And I am pretty sure there is a bright knot on the SEB along it's longitudinal axis near the trailing edge. Two darker spots along the SEB's southern edge seemed to pop up periodically, so they got sketched, too. I am dying to study a current image of this CM to verify some of those more difficult observations.
Anyway, observation began about 2 Nov 1600UT and lasted for an hour and a half. Beginning CM I:170 II:14 III:62, seeing (9/10) and transparency very good with the moon nearby.
Wonderful night when Jupiter just "pops" like that...thanks for sharing. (Pete, nailed "The Paw" last night, too. )

UPDATE: Kody Walsh has waived his extradition proceedings and is to be extradited back to Winnebago County.
More information will be given as it becomes available.
ROCKFORD (WIFR) – There are new developments in the Kody Walsh murder investigation that has now spanned across multiple states.
Police say the suspect's getaway car found in Tennessee over the weekend was stolen from Rockford.
We're starting to learn more about how police caught Walsh in Tennessee Sunday afternoon. Investigators say he tried to conceal his identity by shaving his head, even giving detectives a fake name when he was taken into custody.
Here's what we know about his arrest. Investigators say Memphis Police originally tried to pull the suspect over when they noticed something illegal with his license plates. That's when they say he hit the gas pedal and led police on a 45 minute high speed chase through three Tennessee counties. He ended up hitting two parked cars before losing a tire and crashing into a light pole. He tried to run but was caught by deputies up the road. Investigators found a stolen gun and 40 rounds of ammunition in the vehicle.
"I think I feel more of a relief to the community to know there is not someone out there on a first degree murder warrant there job is not done, they have someone in custody and will learn more about what happened that night," said Captain James Winters with the Illinois State Police.
Meanwhile, the victim, 36-year-old Lori Daniels was laid to rest this morning in Beloit. Friends and family members are relieved Walsh is in custody. Local investigators are heading to Tennessee to question Walsh.
In the case of extraditing Walsh back to Illinois, he appears in court tomorrow morning in Tennessee. He has an option to come back to the area, and if he decides not to, it could take up to 90 days for another hearing.
The 22 year old was arrested in Memphis, Tennessee, on Sunday afternoon after another high speed chase with police. Investigators say Walsh was taken into custody after the suspect fled from officers during a traffic stop. He ended up crashing into a pole after investigators say he blew a tire. Memphis Police say he then got out of the vehicle and tried to run but was stopped by deputies a few blocks up the road. A stolen gun with rounds of ammunition were found inside the car.
Investigators are trying to get Walsh back to Rockford to face a series of charges. Walsh is accused of shooting Lori Daniels while driving on I-90 last Sunday.
Press Release from the Illinois State Police:
On Sunday, September 16, 2012, at approximately 2:00 P.M., Kody R. Walsh was located near Memphis, Tennessee and was arrested by local Tennessee law enforcement.
Local law enforcement attempted to stop Walsh during a traffic contact but Walsh fled from officers. The pursuit ended when Walsh's vehicle crashed and he was taken into custody. A firearm and rounds of ammunition were located in the vehicle when Walsh was arrested.
Illinois State Police investigators will be working with Tennessee officials and the Winnebago County States Attorney to coordinate the extradition of Walsh to Rockford.
A no-bond, first degree murder warrant was issued for Walsh's arrest following the September 9, 2012 shooting death of Lori Ann Daniels, 36, of Beloit, Wisconsin.
All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

while the client is online Calendar integration with .ics or CalDav works quite well with Thunderbird/Lighting or Evolution.
TB/ Lightning and Evolution offer a function to make the calendar offline available.
But unfortunately in TB/Lightning in offline mode the calendar disappears completely if that function is enabled and in Evolution the calendar is still visible in offline mode but you can't edit that calendar.
So, is there any possibility to use and edit calendars with TB or Evolution while the client is offline and that changes that are made offline are synced next time the client goes online ?
Tanks for your help!

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- The clock is ticking if you need to book a Thanksgiving flight.
According to Travelocity, Thanksgiving airfare is up seven percent from last year. A round trip ticket will run an average of $415.
If you haven't booked tickets already, then travel experts say you will pay even more than $415 because the cheapest flights are usually offered at the start of the new year.
If you haven't bought your ticket yet, then all hope is not lost. Experts advise traveling on Thanksgiving and returning on Saturday to save money. Booking early flights may also help. Early flights have a better on time performance and shorter security lines.

The 12-year-old Tarboro boy killed while hunting with relatives will be laid to rest Monday.
James Parker's funeral is scheduled for 2 p.m. Monday at the Tarboro Church of God.
Parker died Friday after he was shot accidentally while hunting with relatives. Wildlife officers planned to discuss the case with prosecutors before deciding whether to press charges against the boy's uncle.
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission officers said Friday that 30-year-old Jason Matthews Parker accidentally shot his nephew, James Lee Parker, with a 12-gauge shotgun during the excursion.
An agency spokesman said Jason Parker hadn't taken a hunting education course that's supposed to be mandatory to get a hunting license. Wildlife officers planned to discuss the case with prosecutors before deciding whether to press charges.
Relatives say the boy was hunting deer with his father, uncle and 16-year-old cousin when he was shot just before 8 a.m. Friday. The boy's father called 911 to report the shooting.
Multiple media outlets are reporting authorities have identified a boy's uncle, 30-year-old Jason Harper, as the one who accidentally shot and killed the 12-year-old Tarboro boy while hunting with his family in Wake Forest.
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission officers reportedly said preliminary findings show Harper accidentally shot his nephew, James Lee Parker, with a 12-gauge shotgun during the excursion Friday morning. in the torso. Commission representatives say Harper improperly acquired a hunting license and failed to take the mandatory course required. A spokesman for the agency told media outlets Harper was not charged.
Parker was hunting deer with his dad, Harper, and 16-year-old stepbrother when he was shot Friday morning.
Previous Story
Authorities say a 12-year-old Tarboro boy has been shot and killed in a hunting accident in Wake Forest.
Wake County Sheriff Donnie Harrison says the shooting happened in the Falls Lake Recreation Area at around 7:30 a.m. on Friday.
James Parker was hunting deer with his father, uncle and stepbrother when he was shot in the upper body.
Harrison says the boy was about 100 yards into the woods when he was shot. Authorities said the boy's father called 911 to report the shooting.
Parker was a 7th grader at Phillips Middle School in Battleboro. "James was an example of a model student that all teachers and principals want in their school and classroom; he will be extraordinarily missed at Phillips," said Principal Donnell Brown.
A crisis team will be sent to the school on Wednesday when students return from Christmas break.
"This is such a tragic loss," said Superintendent John Farrelly. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time."
The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission says so far this hunting season there have been three hunting deaths. One from a tree stand fall, another that may be a possible homicide and the one today.
Last year there were five fatalities, three of those firearm-related.
Major Chris Huebner says child hunting fatalities are not that common, though the last one happened in 2011.

'Hidden behind the forehead'
Medicine | For years conservatives have expressed skepticism about the existence of ADHD and worried about the overuse of powerful stimulants like Ritalin. Yet many parents, teachers, and counselors don't doubt ADHD's existence. In Austin, Texas, Linda Classen has devoted her adult life to helping parents and teachers better understand "children like ours"
Linda Classen's passion is helping kids with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). She comes by the interest naturally: Two of her three now-adult sons struggled with it. She turned that personal interest into a 32-year career as a Texas classroom teacher, school social worker, and finally, as "504 coordinator" for the Austin Independent School District.
That "504" refers to the paragraph in the 1973 federal Rehabilitation Act that prohibits discrimination against kids with certain kinds of disabilities, including ADHD-and the job turned into a calling. "I truly believe I was called to do this as a ministry . . . to make something meaningful out of something so painful."
She's now into her third year of retirement from the district, but not from her passion. Several days a week she sees clients in one room of a suite of offices that houses a psychiatrist and psychologists who work with children and adolescents.
Mrs. Classen, 65, sits in a blue wing chair, one leg crossed boy-style over the other at the knee. Occasionally she shifts position, using her hands to help adjust her legs to a more comfortable position. She explains that a few years ago her childhood polio came back, leaving her lame and in great pain. She still walks with a limp, but regular treatments and the encouragement of nurses have helped: "All of these threads interweave to work for good for those who love the Lord."
Dressed in navy pants, white blouse, and striped overshirt, she combines both a grandmotherly and professional air as she counsels emotionally drained parents. A typical counselee has already spent hours in the principal's office at her child's school and huddled in conferences with her child's teachers. She has already learned to dread opening her morning e-mail because it is often filled with notes from teachers reporting another failure. She's had harried teachers rush to the carpool line to report her child's outrageous behavior.
Above all, such a mom has learned to keep her troubles to herself, because she's heard-and likely believes-the same thing other parents have heard: ADHD is a problem of lazy parents failing to discipline overactive children. ADHD = failure. ADHD = sin.
To those parents desperate for practical help, Ms. Classen appears as a sort of Glenda the Good Witch, radiating calm and good humor. Her clients don't have to be convinced that the "normal parenting strategies aren't working," and they don't know what to do: "Usually I find myself teaching and trying to correct some misconceptions about the disorder."
One misconception, she says, is that ADHD is only about hyperactivity or lack of focus in the classroom. While those traits are part of the description of the disorder, current brain research suggests that ADHD affects "executive function"-the ability to organize, inhibit impulses, think about consequences, and understand time. Kids with ADHD don't see much beyond the end of their noses, she says, so consequences and rewards have to be immediate. For example, telling a high-school student with ADHD that he cannot play sports unless he passes his courses every six weeks is ineffective because six weeks is an eternity for someone with the disorder.
Another misconception concerns the relative risks of stimulant medications, which have been studied extensively since they were first prescribed in 1957. Currently about 2.5 million children (that's 3 percent to 5 percent of the school-age population) take medication for ADHD. Parents worry that stimulants will turn their kids into addicts. (Actually, kids treated with stimulant medications are less likely than untreated kids to have substance-abuse problems.) Or they've read that stimulants may increase the risk of coronary problems, a concern currently under review by the National Institutes of Health.
They may also believe that ADHD is a matter of character. They often believe that if their kids would only apply themselves, they'd be fine-a belief shared by many teachers. With dismay Mrs. Classen recounts one teacher telling a struggling student, "You're smart and I know you're smart . . . but they are not going to put up with this in high school." She says no one seeing her polio-caused limp would tell her to get up and run laps, but well-meaning teachers pressure ADHD students because their disability is "hidden behind the forehead."
With her elfin grin and down-home manner, Mrs. Classen puts people at ease. Texisms roll off her tongue like syrup off a fork. "This is the thing that kicked my bucket over," she says. She often uses her own experience as a way to connect. "I love my child surely as much as you love yours," she says to parents worried about medication. "I would lie down in front of an 18-wheeler to protect him . . . so if you know something I don't know about the safety of these drugs, please tell me."
She comes by her empathy from experience. She was a stay-at-home mom, retired from teaching with three small children, when her husband abandoned her. She knew she'd have to go back to teaching to support herself: "It was the worst year of my life and it was the most important year." She learned that she was more interested in behavior than in curriculum and earned a master's degree by studying part-time and sometimes taking her children to class.
By the time Mrs. Classen received her master's degree, she had also discovered that her own kids had learning troubles and that little help was available: "My school social work program had no training; my colleagues had no training; pediatricians had no training." But the Austin school district hired her as a "visiting teacher," a social work position that she then held for 18 years. During that time she sat in on numerous staff meetings: "I was hearing the same litany about bright kids who weren't available for learning."
She became known as an expert on those kinds of kids: "I was passionately interested in this area. They knew I was spending my own money to go for in-service training." Other visiting teachers began to trade cases with her. Over time she learned which classroom techniques "were cruel and which ones hurt." Convinced that most teachers wanted to help their ADHD students, she was able to train them "when you do this, this is what happens. Do this; don't do that. Say this, don't say that."
Now Mrs. Classen more often accompanies parents to meetings at school: "I'm not there as an adversary of the staff . . . I'm one more person sitting around the table problem-solving for this child." She keeps prodding her teacher colleagues to understand and deal with a puzzling brain disorder that keeps smart kids who have been given "some pretty sour lemons" from making lemonade.
Drug war
Some conservatives vociferously criticize ADHD as a diagnosis and stimulants as a treatment. Phyllis Schafly once complained that "the old excuse of 'my dog ate my homework' has been replaced by 'I got an ADHD diagnosis,'" and Rush Limbaugh lectured parents, "You mask your own failings by doping up your children to calm them down."
But medical writer Michael Fumento, who quoted those critiques, also found conservatives on the other side-and they tended to be folks who had direct experience with a child suffering from ADHD. Columnist Mona Charen wrote, "I have two non-ADHD children, so it's not a matter of parenting technique. . . . People without such children have no idea what it's like. I can tell the difference between boyish high spirits and pathological hyperactivity. . . . These kids bounce off the walls. Their lives are chaos; their rooms are chaos. And nothing replaces the drugs. . . . I'm sure I would have been one of those smug conservatives saying it's a made-up disease . . . if I hadn't found out the hard way."
Mr. Fumento quotes Christina Hoff Sommers explaining that she originally planned to have a chapter attacking Ritalin in her best-selling book, The War Against Boys (2000), because "'it seemed to fit the thesis.' What stopped her was both her survey of the medical literature and her own empirical findings. Of one child she personally came to know she says, 'He was utterly miserable, as was everybody around him. The drugs saved his life.'"

Does anyone know the percentage of tags that are allocated to nonresidents for elk in draw hunts?
In some states if that percentage equals 20 tags or less and nonresidents apply as a party of 2 or more they will never get drawn. I found this out the hard way in Oregon after applying with a party for several years thinking we had enough points but did not draw a tag. I read this in the Oregon percentage tags book and changed our application this year to individual and we all got drawn. Is Colorado the same way?

As expected DREAM is returning in time for a New Year's Eve event.
Officials today announced "DREAM.18: Special NYE 2012" will take place Dec. 31 at Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.
DREAM featherweight champion Hiroyuki Takaya, veteran Tatsuya Kawajiri and former title challenger Satoru Kitaoka will compete at the event, which is expected to feature both MMA and kickboxing bouts.
No broadcast plans were announced at today's press conference in Tokyo.
DREAM's former owners, FEG, declared bankruptcy earlier this year. In its place, the upstart GLORY kickboxing promotion and head Pierre Andurand are heavily involved in the Dec. 31 DREAM event, as are other investors. GLORY's parent company, GLORY Sports International, purchased fellow kickboxing promotion It's Showtime earlier this year and hosts its third show next month.
Major New Year's Eve shows have been an annual MMA tradition in Japan. In fact, DREAM hasn't held a show since its most recent New Year's Eve event, which featured a full slate of MMA, kickboxing and pro-wrestling bouts. Famed heavyweight Fedor Emelianenko knocked out Satoshi Ishii in the headliner of the event, which also took place at Saitama Super Arena.
DREAM's future beyond the New Year's Eve event isn't clear.
Additional participants and matchups will be announced in the coming weeks.
For more "DREAM.18: Special NYE 2012," stay tuned to the MMA Rumors section of the site.
