Oklahoma basketball: North Dakota State coach worried about Sooners
I chatted with North Dakota State basketball coach Saul Phillips on Monday evening and wrote about the North Dakota State success story for the Wednesday Oklahoman. You can read that column here.
Talking with Phillips was a pleasure. He comes from a different world, as you know. I mean, Lon Kruger is as accessible and accommodating as it gets, but this was even moreso. The North Dakota State folks gave me Phillips' direct line, I called him after hours, he answered, we chatted and he told me to call back anytime. Just like it was 1983.
Then Wednesday morning here in Spokane, Wash., I wake up to read that Spokane Spokesman-Review columnist John Blanchette has identified Phillips as a prime candidate to become the coach at Washington State, which fired its coach, Ken Bone, on Tuesday.
Anyway, Phillips had lots of interesting things to say Monday, so I thought I would share them with you. We'll hear more from Phillips later Wednesday at the press conference for the OU-NDSU game in the NCAA Tournament.
On the Sooners: "It's funny, because you're hoping and praying for a 12 seed, you're all excited you're making the tournament at our level, you sit around for a week thinking about what you might get. It's a warm and fuzzy feeling, feeling great about life. Then the draw comes out, and you think, 'What did we get our self in to?'"
More on the Sooners: "It's not just this year. Look out for them in years to come. It seems like he's (Lon Kruger) got really good young talent on that roster. They're really good on pressure. Limits what we can do. We've gotta take care of the basketball, gotta make good decisions. Outcoaching him's out of the question, so we've got to throw everything at 'em."
On the history of 12 seeds pulling first-round upsets: "As players, we've got to keep it a little more simple than that. Our guys feel they can play with anyone. The've gone to some hostile environments and presented themselves pretty well. They're confidence is not a problem. Those are random numbers drawn but doesn't help when going against a team like Oklahoma."
On 6-foot-7 North Dakota State star Taylor Braun: "He's 6-7, and awfully quick off the dribble. He can score at the rim, he can score from deep, but really, the biggest key with him is what he creates for others. He touches the stat sheet in a lot of ways without having the ball in his hands. He sets up his cuts very well. He's very well-rounded. I think that's the biggest thing. Then you throw in his size. It's different than a lot of two-guards from mid-major conferences."
On OU's shaky defense at times during this season: "Their struggles on defense early, they were throwing out all kinds of underclassmen, they're just learning how to play defense. Not a lot of kids coming out of high school are polished and ready to play defense. They (OU) can do some things to disrupt you. They've got enough athletes, they can make it difficult on you to pressure. Are we able to handle what they can throw at us?"
On North Dakota State's size advantage: "We've played pretty well against both styles. We've played so many games against so many different styles. Notre Dame had a big team (and the Bison won in South Bend). It's what you can take advantage of on a given night. Is it a relief for them to not have two mobile 7-footers? Sure. But I don't think Oklahoma's out of the norm. The day of the big, plodding center, there's not a lot of them out there. I would love to coach a kid like (Ryan) Spangler. He's just fun to watch. He leaves it on the court. May not come in a huge package you see from, say, a Syracuse. We'll take whatever comes our way. You're in the Summit League, you're in the dance, you know you're going to have some challenges."
On North Dakota State in general: "It's a pretty unique situation, really loyal and patient fan base. You know what, I don't get the heat that a lot of Division I coaches get. But at the same time, they rally around us when things go great. It's a unique place to be. We've got a lot to sell."

On January 7th, 1996 - snow began falling on the Washington, D.C. area. Power outages and traffic troubles would soon follow. But before a simple snowfall would transform into the "Blizzard of 1996", one D.C. teen would find the perfect "hill" to take a ride to remember.
Patrick Serfass has vivid memories of the blizzard of 1996. Not because of the icy wallop it packed on the D.C. area, but because it spawned a colorful childhood memory - a memory documented in a photo that would truly stand the test of time.
"I can't believe that photo has had such staying power," said Serfass. "Every couple of years someone comes across it and contacts me."
The snapshot is one like many families took during the storm - kids having fun and sledding during an historic winter snow. But Patrick's photo was a little different. Instead of the usual neighborhood sleigh ride, Patrick and his siblings were taking advantage of a makeshift course built on the snowy steps of the Capitol.
"My parents wouldn't let me drive the station wagon to Rock Creek Park to find the steeper hills," said Serfass. "So this long set of stairs was the closest thing we could find to a good, fast hill to take advantage of all the fresh snow."
On January 7th, 1996, an Associated Press photographer snapped a 17-year-old Patrick barreling down the Capitol steps as his brother and sister kept watch for the Capitol Police. It was an innocent moment of childhood antics captured forever in time. Patrick's mother says friends and family saw the photo in various news publications around the world, including Hong Kong.
There was no Facebook, no Twitter, no Instagram and certainly no words like "viral" to describe the global reach of this simple, yet captivating picture.
These days, Patrick Serfass is a 34-year-old professional who still lives on Capitol Hill. He revisited his old sledding-stomping ground a few years ago during Snowpocalypse 2010. He's also married and has a 2-year-old son who he will surely share the joys of sleigh riding with, as well as his fond memories of the blizzard of '96.
"I remember sledding until we were too tired to hike the stairs anymore," said Serfass. "If you can't tell, we really had a lot of fun."

Top 10 Most Violent Prisons In The World
I have known people in my life, some family, some friends, but most have been just aquaintances, whom have spent time in some type of prison.
I remember one guy in particular that was passing thru my place of work. This guy looked like he was just left out in the desert for several weeks only to find his way back to civalization.
After listening to this one mans testimony of the last year of his life, I became interested in the life of inmates around the World. You see this guy I spoke with, to this day I can not remember his name, he had spent the last year of his life, locked up, and left to survive in a South American prison. After that year, and with no charges filed on him, this South American Government, returned his passport, and sent him on his way back to the U.S. After listening to this guy, I could only wonder, what possibly is going on that we tend to turn a blind eye to. What I have read, and researched is enough to make me think more then twice about visiting other countries having a fear of just disapearing into there judicial systems. Here is my top 10 list of the most violent prisons in the world.
10. ADX Florence SuperMax Facility, Colorado
The worst of the worst in American inmates get sent to this Federal Prison. ?Mobsters like Anthony Casso, and Gregory Scarpa Jr. Bombers like Theodore Kaczynski "The Unabomber" and Timothy McVeigh whom is now deceased and known for the Oklahoma City Bombing. Terrorists like Ramzi Yousef, Gang leader Barry Mills, of the Aryan brotherhood, Larry Hoover, founder of the Gangster Disciples Union. Even an ex FBI agent, Robert Hanssen is serving time in what is nicknamed "A clean version of Hell". With no privileges like telephone calls, 99 percent lock down, lack of sunlight, and the worst criminals in American history has ADX come in at # 10
9. Guantanamo Bay, Cuba
Guantanamo bay is a USA war camp. although most prisoners at Gizmo are protected under the Geneva Convention, it does not recognize ?terrorists, Three British Muslim prisoners, now known in the media as the "Tipton Three", were released in 2004 without charge. The three have alleged ongoing torture, sexual degradation, forced drugging and religious persecution being committed by U.S. forces at Guantanamo Bay. Former Guantanamo detainee Mehdi Ghezali was freed without charge on July 9, 2004, after two and a half years internment. Ghezali has claimed that he was the victim of repeated torture. Omar Deghayes alleges he was blinded by pepper spray during his detention. Juma Al Dossary claims he was interrogated hundreds of times, beaten, tortured with broken glass, barbed wire, burning cigarettes, and sexual assaults. David Hicks also made allegations of torture and mistreatment in Guantnamo Bay, but as part of his plea bargain Hicks withdrew the allegations. But what is hidden behind these walls is why Guantanamo Makes it # 9 of the most dangerous prisons in the World.
8. Bang Kwang Prison, Thailand
The prison houses many foreign prisoners. It is a harsh prison which handles death row and long-sentence prisoners. ?All prisoners are required to wear leg irons for the first three months of their sentences. Death row inmates have their leg irons permanently welded on. Not only do you get the leg Irons, but prisoners are only fed 1 bowl of vegetable rice soup a day, If they want more they are required to pay for any extra food, If they can not afford the food they must work for other inmates or even the guards. The lack of food and the power other prisoners receive over the poor make this the # 8 worst prison in the World.
7. Fortaleza de San Carlos de la Cabana, Cuba
With a population of over 75,000 inmates. Havana prison is one of the most inhumane in the World. Prisoners lose their human ?rights when they set foot in Fidel Castro's prison and are treated worse then animals. Prisoners are put in cells so small they can barely sit down and can't lay down. Regular everyday criminals in cuba are given a higher rank than political prisoners and are encouraged to beat the crap out of inmates with pipes and clubs. One inmate prayed out loud and the guards shot him in the head instantly. Not only are you dealing with Fidel Castro but with the largest population among all prisons there is no place to relax and that puts Fidel Castro's Prison at # 7 of the worst prisons in the World.
6. Drapchi Prison
I always thought of the Tibet people to be very peaceful and spiritual ?leaders, but become a prisoner in this tibet prison and this is what you will live. Inmates will be killed on the spot just for looking wrong at a guard. If a prisoner happens to survive the beatings full fills the sentence they could be re-arrested and brought back to prison for a much longer time and suffer even more inhumane beatings and solitary confinement for any type of protest while in this prison. Prisoners are also taught Communism and if they resist, then the beatings and tortures are severe. Drapchi comes in at # 6 of the worst prisons in the World.
5. La Sabaneta Prison, Venezuela
Known as a brutal prison, violence is a daily occurrence, and inmates are ?at the mercy of disease outbreaks, violence and riots. In 1994 a horrific massacre of 100 inmates took place. Death is rampant at La Sabaneta, as no activities are permitted to release tension, prisoners fight amongst themselves, with deadly weapons, and kill one another almost everyday. The picture below shows the living situation of prisoners, add that to the disease and violence and you got your # 5 worst prison in the World.
4. Diyarbakir Prison, Turkey
Diyarbaker Prison was taken over by the military and used as a martial law prison where most of the prisoners where Imprisoned ?do to Political differences. During there time in Diyarbaker, prisoners have died from Hunger strikes and severe torture. Some of the types of torture included, Wolfhound Attack: When prisoners are stark naked, they are attacked by wolfhounds, and Gallows: A prisoner is taken to the corridor and interrogated in a fake court in which guards play the role of a judge, prosecutor and lawyer. The court gives death penalty to the prisoner. A thick rope which cannot break neck bones is tied to the neck of the prisoner and he is hanged. The rope is untied when the prisoner is about to die. Constant Torture by the Military make Diyarbaker # 4 on the list of the worst Prisons in the World.
3. Tadmor Prison, Syria
Described as a kingdom of death and madness. Tadmor's guards butcher inmates with axes. In 1980, after an assassination? attempt on the President of Syria, commandos landed at Tadmor, and killed as many as 500 prisoners in their cells to teach the Syrian people a lesson of who is in control. When guards are not busy tying up inmates and dragging them to death, they can be found chopping up body parts of the prisoners who they recently killed. Its hard to believe it gets worse then brutal axe murders, and dismemberment, but Tadmor only comes in at # 3 of the worst prisons in the World.
2. Kwan Li So No.22, North Korea
Camp 22 is home of North Koreas Political Prisoners. Men, Women, Children and Infants serve time in this ultimate dungeon. This is one of the worst. Inhumane experiments are conducted on all prisoners including newborn infants. Women are not allowed to scream while giving birth to babies if they do guards will beat the pregnant women until she stops screaming. When the baby is born if it starts crying the guards usually smother it to death or leave the baby face down on the ground to die. If the baby happens to survive it must endure the harsh conditions the mother must endure. Up to 2000 Prisoners die every year and a large percentage are kids and infants. they die from hunger, beatings, and executions. Most prisoners and their families are imprisoned due to political choices, making North Korea's Kwan Li So N0.22 prison in the top 2 worst prisons in the World.
1. Gitarama Prison, Rwanda Africa
Gitarama has the most overcrowded prison in the world housing over 6000 prisoners in a building design for only 500 people. ?Lack of food has Inmates so hungary that they bite chunks of meat out of each other to survive. The jail is so congested that inmates have no option but to stand all day and all night and many suffer from rotting feet. The floor is moist and filled with raw feces. Gangrene slowly sets on inmates toes, they turn black and fall off later. Inmates that are not so lucky to only have toes fall off, doctors have no choice but to amputate lower limbs to save the persons life. The unbearable stench is so horrible that it can be noticed a half mile away upon arriving to the prison. The survival rate is low due to the violence and the diminishing conditions in the building where one in eight prisoners will die from disease or violence. We have Gitarama prison at # 1 because when entering this prison you are already left for the dead.

text: Body scanners might violate UK child protection laws Politics 06 January 10 by Kim Zetter Brian Branch-Price/AP/Press Association Images Image courtesy: Brian Branch-Price/AP/Press Association ImagesThe deployment of body-scanning X-ray machines could violate child-protection laws in Britain and prevent their implementation, according to The Guardian.British officials were forced to exempt the scanning of anyone under 18 during a year-long test of the machines at Manchester airport until legal questions could be worked out, the newspaper said.There are also concerns that images of nude celebrities could be posted online or sold to tabloids.Body scanning machines have been touted as a solution for catching hidden explosives and other dangerous items after a would-be bomber attempted to blow up a Christmas Day flight from Amsterdam to Detroit, using explosives concealed in his underwear. Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport has 15 of the scanners, but none were used to scan the would-be bomber before he boarded the flight, according to the Associated Press.Over in the States, authorities are pushing ahead with plans for wider deployment. There are currently 40 full-body scanners being used at 19 US airports. Some are being used for primary screening — instead of the traditional metal detectors — while others are reserved only for so-called secondary screening. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has ordered 300 more machines in the wake of the recent bombing attempt, according to The Washington Post. Some in Congress want to limit the use to passengers designated for special screening.TSA spokeswoman Suzanne Trevino told the Associated Press that the administration had been working with privacy advocates and the scanner makers to develop software that blurs the faces and genitalia of passengers. But this raises questions about whether a blurred image would be as effective at detecting hidden explosives, such as those concealed by the so-called underwear bomber. She said passengers also can currently opt for a full-body pat-down instead of a scan.Although scanned images are not supposed to be stored, there are concerns that security personnel are not adequately monitored and that images of children could fall into the hands of paedophiles.Simon Davies, founder of the British-based group Privacy International, said that scans of celebrities or even of people with unusual body features could have an "irresistible pull" for some employees who want to share them with friends or others. A Manchester airport spokesman told The Guardian that 500 people had participated in its 12-month test so far on a voluntary basis. Nearly all of them had responded with positive feedback, according to the spokesman. The image is reportedly only seen by one security officer, who is stationed in a remote location to prevent the officer from matching the image to an identity.

Decent video would be almost a necessity.
The other poster's were correct about almost any camera being okay, but when we watch these events on TV (or wherever) it's always the video. I've seen video from phones being uploaded to YouTube while protests were happening in China, which is really interesting as YouTube is blocked there. I was actually at one of these events, and no one was interested in the stills.
I think however such an event is recorded, it must be in both kinds of media, and at as a high quality as possible - HD video (1080/60 for easy slow motion ability) and RAW (and a fast, wide angle lens) so that stills can be fixed later to correct any problems (such as lighting) presented by a continuously changing situation.

'It has become his province to educate,
instruct and form the most interesting
mind and character in the world.'
AS THE DAYS PASSED people spoke of the new Queen with mounting enthusiasm. A large crowd stood in the courtyard of St James's Palace and cheered her loudly as she stood by an open window to hear the heralds proclaim her Queen and it was 'most touching' to see the colour drain from her cheeks and the tears well up in her eyes. She was cheered again quite as vociferously when she drove to the House of Lords for the dissolution of Parliament for the first time on 17 July 1837 and, later, when she went to the Lord Mayor's dinner in Guildhall. It really was 'most gratifying', she told Princess Feodora, 'to have met with such a reception in the greatest capital in the World and from thousands and thousands of people. I really do not deserve all this kindness for what I have yet done.'1
Charles Greville said that at her second Privy Council meeting she presided 'with as much ease as if She had been doing nothing else all her life.' 'She looked very well, and though so small in stature, and without any pretension to beauty, the gracefulness of her manner and the good expression of her countenance give her on the whole a very agreeable appearance, and with her youth inspire an excessive interest in all who approach her.' 2
Princess Lieven, not the most indulgent of critics, was much impressed by the contrast between her childish face and sometimes rather diffident smile and the dignity of her queenly manner. Lord Palmerston, the

Since the big boys still have so much trouble letting the women into their club, dozens of female filmmakers in the New York City area have decided to mentor and support each other on the road to a successful film career. They've created a film collective called Film Fatales and member Danielle Lurie penned a persuasively optimistic profile of the organization for Filmmaker Magazine that explains what the group means to its members.
Film Fatales is the brainchild of filmmaker Leah Meyerhoff, whose film I Believe in Unicorns premiered at SXSW, and who is very frank about the professional hurdles that women directors face:
"It's harder for female directors to raise money. It's more work to be taken seriously on set. Less women are nominated for awards so they are less likely to win.... Women are told they are not assertive enough, or disliked for being 'too controlling.' Female filmmakers are often branded 'difficult' or 'crazy' when male directors in similar circumstances would be labeled 'eccentric' or even 'genius.' Women are more likely to write stories with female lead characters and then told that those kinds of films are less likely to sell."
The group meets monthly at a rotating location -- always at a member's house -- to help each other through an enlarged pool of contacts, technical knowledge, and grant and investor networks. Obvious Child helmer Gillian Robespierre recalls, "I mentioned that I was looking for 1st AD recommendations, and by the time I got home I had a list. By the end of the week I hired Laura Klein." The collective is also becoming the "go-to group when producers are looking for a woman director," according to Deborah Kampmeier.
Film Fatales also provides much needed emotional support from peers and colleagues. Director Ry Russo-Young says of the group's camaraderie, "It's comforting to know we're all going through similar processes, whether it be negotiating a deal, recommending a colorist or the emotional balance between the industry and making work you really care about."
Now sixty members strong, the organization is slowly expanding its mission and its geographical constraints. A Fatales Writing Group has formed in New York, and two filmmakers from the group led Fatales master classes at the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival.

Obama's Biggest Disappointment? Guns
President Barack Obama on Thursday said Congress's failure to pass legislation mandating new background checks ahead of gun purchases was his "most disappointing" moment with lawmakers.
The White House and Congress have had their share of standoffs, including testy hearings over the Internal Revenue Service and Benghazi, debt-ceiling showdowns and a budget impasse that led to a partial government shutdown.

But Mr. Obama said the December 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School was "probably the worst day of my presidency" and the failure to enact a background-check law afterward was "probably the most disappointing moment that I had with Congress."
The massacre in Newtown, Conn., killed 20 students and six school officials.
Mr. Obama, speaking at a town hall in Minneapolis, said he was sure that the Newtown shooting would lead to a breakthrough on gun legislation. Instead, lawmakers shied away from the legislation in the face of opposition from the National Rifle Association and gun makers, he said.
The issue has remained dormant, despite at least 74 school shootings since Newtown, according to Everytown for Gun Safety, the gun-control organization funded by former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
The president said the political impasse wouldn't change unless more Americans mobilize and raise sufficient funds to counter the gun lobby.
"If we're going to do something nationally, then we're going to have to mobilize ordinary folks, moms, dads, families, responsible gun owners, law enforcement and they're going to have to get organized and be able to counter the pressure that is coming from the other side in a sustained way," Mr. Obama said. "It's going to have to keep on going for several years before we are able to make progress."
The comments echoed the president's call last month for "soul-searching" on gun violence.
The NRA rejected Mr. Obama's assessment.
"Last year, the Senate wisely rejected President Obama and Michael Bloomberg's gun control agenda because nothing in it would have prevented the Sandy Hook tragedy," said Catherine Mortensen, NRA spokeswoman. "The president needs to stop playing politics and start addressing his failed policies."

Acee: Hard to imagine another Bolts game like Sunday's
The Chargers were not overwhelming in their conquest of the Steelers on Sunday, even while scoring more points than they ever had in the 'burgh.
They were just brilliantly efficient.
"We converted third downs, didn't turn it over, kept them backed up, played great defense," Philip Rivers said, with the nonchalance of a man explaining that the sky was blue.
Then, he said, his tone turning a mix of defiance and resignation: "Those are hard things do to."
He meant they are difficult to do as well as the Chargers did in concert.
The point here is that the Chargers played virtually as well and essentially as complete a game as they could. That's the good news and the bad news.
Given the injury situation, the talent level and the fact that the Chargers' game plan is now a matter of public record, I don't see it happening again – at least not for three straight games.
I'm not hating, not even trying to diminish. But we must at least consider that Pittsburgh receiver Mike Wallace dropping two deep passes and defensive end Ziggy Hood bricking a would-be interception in the Chargers' first offensive series would have changed the game.
Also, acknowledge the officiating crew uncharacteristically keeping their flags in their belts on a few awful-close-to-pass-interference penalties on Eric Weddle and Antoine Cason. Not to take anything away from Cason and Weddle defending those passes superbly, but don't tell me that in the past there haven't been some crucial calls against the Chargers that seemed dubious and proved crucial – as those would have Sunday.
Out of respect for an historic victory, the Chargers' first in 15 regular season games in Pittsburgh, I'm holding off on my original plan for today – a look ahead to significant changes in the makeup of the 2013 Chargers roster.
It's proper to stay in the moment, because even if you have to lean down close, concentrate hard and believe as much as listen in order to hear it, there remains breath in this season.
Mathematically speaking, the Chargers' chances of making the playoffs are around 1.5 percent based on the probability of them winning every game remaining game and the proper teams losing enough for it to matter. In reality, the chances are somewhere between 1.5 percent and what every child over the age of five knows what their parents mean when they say, "maybe."
But, yes, there is a chance. More than there would have been if Sunday had gone as most of us predicted it would.
So let's discuss how Sunday's victory was achieved and speculate on whether it can be duplicated. (Speculation being my specialty, remember.)
In one sense, Sunday's victory was what we've been waiting for – a complete game by a team that has lost five games by one score, six games after leading at the half and four games when leading after three quarters.
In another sense, it was the Chargers playing absolutely out of their minds.
They converted 12 of their 22 third down tries. The 54.5 percent conversion rate is impressive, for sure, the highest conversion rate in at least the past 18 years in the NFL among teams that had 22 or more attempts in a game. What makes the success rate mind-boggling is that the 22 attempts were the most in a game in Chargers history, yet the Chargers gained just 294 total yards on Sunday.
"Our players managed the game," Turner said. "We didn't have a turnover. We didn't give up big plays for the most part."
Their defense scored its seventh touchdown of the season. Mike Scifres had four punts downed inside the 10-yard line. The Chargers converted a fake punt into a first down. Bront Bird got his first NFL interception when the Steelers were frantically trying to move the ball.

Juana chose to work with Esperanza due to good loan terms offered. Her story is representative of others in her group and of Esperanza's Haitian and Dominican clients in general. Her group is located in the rural areas surrounding Hato Mayor, an area where the economy is dominated by agriculture. This area, like nearly all impoverished areas of the Dominican Republic, suffers from unreliable running water (none of which is potable) and electricity.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Jalen Rose selected to 2007 All-Star team
- Updated: November 4, 2006
With Jalen Rose reportedly having reached an agreement with the Phoenix Suns on Friday night, the NBA went ahead and named him to the 2007 Western Conference All-Star team, fittingly taking place in Las Vegas where things are sure to be "crackin" enough for the legendary booty-hound. The Hernia sleuth closest to the story cited the revival of the "left-for-dead Tim Thomas" as the springboard for this unprecedented early selection.
"We took a look at the tapes," said an anonymous league drone. "And we were so wowed by what Tim Thomas was able to do in Phoenix last year that we couldn't hold off on making the selection. I mean, the Bulls PAID Tim Thomas to sit at home and then he went to the Suns and became an absolute freak. We figure it's a slam dunk that someone like Jalen will have an All-Star year. He deserves this."

The Supreme Court may intervene in a case on whether Ohio may allow only military voters to do in-person early voting in the three days before the Nov. 6 election.
On one side, 15 states have joined Ohio in asking the Supreme Court for emergency protection from federal judges who seek to "micromanage" elections.
On the other, President Obama's re-election committee has invoked the lessons of Bush v. Gore to counter that Ohio is attempting to favor one group of voters above all others.
And now, in a case with legal and political ramifications, the Supreme Court must decide whether to intervene three weeks before the election in a state both Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney consider critical to their chances of winning.
The issue is whether Ohio may allow only military voters to take advantage of in-person early voting in the three days before the Nov. 6 election. A district judge and a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit said the state had not shown why it should differentiate among groups of voters.

"While there is a compelling reason to provide more opportunities for military voters to cast their ballots, there is no corresponding satisfactory reason to prevent nonmilitary voters from casting their ballots as well," the appeals court said. Nearly 100,000 voters cast their ballots previously during the three days in question.
Ohio's request the Supreme Court stay the appeals court decision comes amid an unprecedented number of voting-law changes across the country concerning who is eligible to vote, under what circumstances and how those votes will be counted.
It has led to fierce partisan battles and a string of lawsuits that mostly have been concluded without the high court's intervention. But Ohio wants the justices to set aside the 6th Circuit's ruling and allow its changes to go into effect.
Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted has appealed a lower-court ruling that reinstates early voting on the three days before Election Day and returns discretion to local boards of elections. The Republican also has asked the Supreme Court to delay the lower court's decision while it decides whether to take the case.
Although the state has permitted early voting on the weekend before the election in the past — long lines on Election Day in 2004 prompted the change — the Republican-controlled legislature ended weekend voting this year, saying local boards of election needed the time to prepare. The state made an exception for military voters, who it said could be deployed at any time, and thus miss the chance to vote.
Such decisions, it says, are for each state to make. The 15 states supporting that position — all, like Ohio, have Republican attorneys general — told the court the Constitution's "genius" is to allow states "to consider and implement creative, novel efforts to widen the ability of citizens to vote."
But Ohio Democrats complain that plan is partisan, saying the voters most likely to take advantage of voting on the weekend before the election are women, the poor and older voters. The Obama campaign told the justices the lower courts were right to stop Ohio's plan.
Bob Bauer, the general counsel for Obama for America, wrote in his brief that the system "is as arbitrary as it is unique: nowhere else in the country will an eligible voter be turned away from a single, open polling place because the polling place is open for some voters, but not for that particular voter."
The lower courts' rulings relied in part on Bush v. Gore, the Supreme Court's 2000 ruling that stopped the Florida recount in the presidential race between George W. Bush and Al Gore. The justices have not relied on that ruling in any case since.
But judges in the 6th Circuit have cited the decision's command that "having once granted the right to vote on equal terms, the state may not, by later arbitrary and disparate treatment, value one person's vote over that of another."
The motion before the court is not on the merits of the 6th Circuit's decision but on Ohio's request that it be stayed. The state says it already provides 23 days of early voting — it began on Oct. 2 — and makes it easy for voters to cast their ballots by mail.
But the Obama campaign said the state cannot show any irreparable harm to opening the polls to all voters that weekend.
It points out that the lower court's decision restores the status quo from the 2008 and 2010 elections, and it notes that several large counties have said the extra voting helps alleviate problems from large turnout on Election Day.
Besides, the brief notes, any hardship on the state "is far outweighed by the harm to voters who are arbitrarily denied the right to vote on the same terms as their fellow citizens."
A decision on whether to grant the stay could come at any time. Ohio's plea was sent to Justice Elena Kagan, who is assigned to the 6th Circuit, and she called for the response from the Obama campaign.
Kagan could rule on her own, but in such cases usually the designated justice refers the matter to the entire court.
Military groups backing Ohio include the National Guard Association of the United States, the Association of the U.S. Army, Association of the U.S. Navy, the Marine Corps League, and the Military Officers Association of America.
The states that filed in support of Ohio are Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Michigan, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin.
Democratic state senators in Ohio also urged the Supreme Court on Friday to reject Husted's appeal.

No baseball team has captured America's imagination like the Mets. Alternately the "Lovable Losers" and the "Miracle Mets," New York's other team offers fascinating fodder for writer Richard Grossinger in this thoughtful collection. The New York Mets is a series of probing essays on the best and most interesting years of the team, particularly 1969, 1973, 1986, and last year's abbreviated run. A pivotal essay chronicles the lives of a professional athlete and a die-hard fan to create a well-argued, deeply felt meditation on the ways in which franchise baseball has come to fail not only the fans but the players.
This centerpiece presents a poignant narrative of Mets pitcher Terry Leach and author Grossinger's own experiences playing and tracking the sport. Taken together, these powerful essays alternately take the poet's, the alchemist's, and the player's perspective to paint a composite portrait that brings all the stunning highs and dispiriting lows together to show the ways in which America's favorite pastime has changed. Grossinger reflects on the salad days when teams were happily homegrown and laments the current money-ball scenario some call baseball today.

Since the issuing of "Solar Journal: Oecological Sections" by Black Sparrow Press in 1970, Richard Grossinger has published some twenty-five books, most of them with his own press, North Atlantic Books/Frog, Ltd., but also titles with Harper, Doubleday, Sierra Club Books, J.P. Tarcher, among others. These have ranged from extremely long explorations of science, culture, and spirituality ("The Night Sky," "Planet Medicine," "Embryogenesis") to memoirs and nonfiction novels ("New Moon," "Out of Babylon") to experimental prose ("Book of the Earth and Sky," "Spaces Wild and Tame") and science fiction ("Mars: A Science Fiction Vision"). Grossinger received a PhD in anthropology from the University of Michigan in 1975 and lives with his wife Lindy Hough in Berkeley, California.
Praise For…
"Grossinger summons the deep continuum, backward from Endy's catch throughout the innermost heart's secret Mets—Melvin Mora, Terry Leach, Wayne Garrett, and beyond. He speaks to and for the True Believeniks, those of us always searching for the door into summer."
—Jonathan Lethem
"You want fun? Well, root for the Mets and read this wonderful book and realize that you're part of a legacy that will live long after we suffer, linger, and die over West Coast games and four-game losing streaks and leaky bullpens. Enjoy."
—Mike Vaccaro, New York Post sports columnist
"For those of us who were there from the beginning, it's been forty-five years now, close to half a century of bewilderment, frustration, and unlikely miracles. The amazing Metropolitans of New York. Richard Grossinger gets the story of the team just right. He is a philosopher of the game, the world's first baseball mystic."
—Paul Auster
"Grossinger's thorough knowledge of Mets history is complemented by his understanding of the ethnographer's art. He writes with a flair and authenticity that encourages further reading, and I found it easy to cross the finish line. He's an engaging writer, and the depth of his passion for the early Mets is worthy of attention."
—NINE Journal

The entire network will be inaccessible for "regular scheduled maintenance" purposes and the downtime will last for a minimum of 14 hours. According to a post on the PlayStation Blog, PSN users will not be able to access PlayStation Store, PlayStation Home, Account Management, or play online after 21:30 hrs IST from the 1st of March. Indians, however, couldn't have asked for a better time, since most of us will be asleep through the downtime. Users will be kept informed about the network's status on the PlayStation Twitter feed.

Oklahoma football notebook: Jalen Saunders, Cortez Johnson arrested
Oklahoma wide receiver Jalen Saunders was arrested early Sunday morning on a complaint of possession of a controlled substance.
The OU junior was booked at the Cleveland County Sheriff's office at 2:34 a.m. on possession of marijuana.
Saunders and OU defensive back Cortez Johnson, both 20, were arrested during a traffic stop at Lindsey and Oakhurst in Norman about 2 a.m., sheriff's spokeswoman Megan McCormick said. The vehicle belonged to Saunders, but Johnson was driving, she said.
Saunders, a transfer from Fresno State in his first year at Oklahoma, was one of the stars of the Sooners' 24-17 win at TCU on Saturday. Saunders was the Sooners' leading receiver with seven receptions for 108 yards and one touchdown. He has 53 catches for 766 yards and three touchdowns in eight games.
Johnson is sitting out this season after transferring from Arizona, where he was coached by current OU defensive coordinator Mike Stoops.
An OU athletic department spokesman declined to comment on the arrests.
In the third quarter of Oklahoma's win at TCU Saturday, senior defensive end R.J. Washington forced quarterback Trevone Boykin to lose control of the ball.
It was recovered by linebacker Frank Shannon, who returned it inside the Horned Frogs' 10-yard line; officials, though, initially ruled an incomplete pass. Upon review, the call was overturned.
"I knew it was a fumble because I saw his arm," Washington said. "They said it was gonna be reviewed, and I was like, 'OK, it's our ball.' I was telling everybody, 'It's fine. It's us. He fumbled; I promise you.'"
Washington said the only thing that confused him was the subsequent spot of the ball. Because officials had blown the play dead, OU took possession where Shannon recovered the fumble, not where he returned it.
"They should've just let that go, even though Frank's slow and got caught on the sideline, but whatever," Washington said with a laugh.
TCU coach Gary Patterson, when asked about his kicker's 32-yard field-goal attempt that was called no good, but appeared on television replays like it should've counted:
"Guy said it wasn't ... he was standing underneath it. I'll look at it tomorrow. I won't be very happy if it was. ... I will watch it, and then I'll protest it."

Lions coach Jim Schwartz said running back Jahvid Best (concussions) is going through "return to play protocols" and is in the best shape he's been in since his rookie year.
Fantasy Spin:
Best is expected to play a similar role to Darren Sproles, catching passes out of the back field and getting around five carries a game. The explosive Best will be more than a year removed from his last concussion if he comes off the PUP list for Week 7 when he's first eligible.

The Void
Posted by Ian Acheson on Apr 1, 2012 in Pursued by God, Uncategorized | 3 comments
I had attended a reunion of one of my previous employers. It's been 20 years since I left this company, having worked there for the best part of ten. I really enjoyed my time there and still think back on those days with great fondness.
But it's the few minutes I spent with the final person I caught up with that stayed with me for a long time after the event. This is someone who has made it – senior executive, leader, super income, lives in prominent street in prominent suburb, kids in private schools, spent time overseas with company, and the list goes on. To his credit he's tremendously humble and gracious, not really taking any of this for granted. During our brief chat and ever since, I've sensed a "void" in his heart – it's like he's standing in a dream where he sees himself fully alive, happy, fully engaging with everyone around him. He feels trapped, he wants to grab a hold of this "other him", the life he so wants to have, but he's unable to take the place of the "other him", the happy one. He wakes up from his dream, feeling frustrated, anxious almost, as another day starts, another one where he no doubt will achieve much and have a great impact on those around him: work colleagues, clients, family, and more.
I stumbled across these lyrics from a John Mellencamp song, titled funnily enough, "Void in my Heart". They express my colleague's emptiness perfectly:
There`s a void in my heart
I can`t seem to fill.
Been a parent,had three children
And a big house on the hill.
Hundred dollar in my pocket
And it didn`t buy a thing.
Now there`s a void in my heart
And a hole in my dreams.
Well I poured miles of concrete
And strung wire for telephones,
Dug ditches whenI was a yound boy
When I first left my parents` home.
Sang my songs for millions of people,
Sang good and bad news,
Now there`s a void in my heart
And a fire at my fuse.
Well I did everything just like they said
So I could find happiness.
Went to school and got a college degree
And at my job I did my best.
As I sit here alone tonight
I see a billion just like me
With a void in their hearts and running from eternity.
There`s a void in my heart I can't seem to fill.
I do charity work when I believe in the cause
But in my soul it bothers me still.
Hey, Lord, well you made me like I am.
Can You heal this restlessness?
Will there be a void in my heart
When they carry me out to rest?
Mellencamp describes it well. We all have experienced this feeling at some time in our lives: a hole in my heart and under-nourished relationships.
I think this malaise is very prevalent amongst men – Mellencamp puts a number to it, "a billion…" We're fed the lie about career, achievement, getting stuff whether it's possessions, sex, power, whatever. Even doing good "charity work", as Mellencamp suggests, doesn't fill the void. None of it fills the hole. Why has depression become so prevalent in society when we are the most affluent society to walk the earth? And it's not just the have-nots that are suffering, it's those who have enjoyed the fruits of our affluence.
I sense it in many men I meet.
As Mellencamp cries out in question – "Hey, Lord, well you made me like I am," – is this it, or am I supposed to live the rest of my days with this restlessness?
I feel lucky because I've felt pursued, pursued by God. (More of that later). And I reckon He didn't make us to live with this restlessness.
"I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." Jesus says in John 10:10b. So it's pretty clear then in answer to Mellencamp's cry – we weren't created to live with a void.
So how do we fill it? How do have life to the full?
There's lots I don't know yet, but I've started out on the journey I should have commenced 30 years ago when I first met Jesus at 16. As a good friend said to me only today, he reckons his first 48 years were an apprenticeship and now life really starts. Well, that's kinda how I feel too. I'm extremely grateful to be able to start out on this discovery.
I hope you will share it with me and I hope you stop by every so often, add your thoughts on your own situation as it's likely many will be experiencing the same and I could sure do with the added encouragement too.

Hey Ian. I started out with my own Story here but I sense what I should be saying instead is…"Be encouraged."
I know the Holy SPirit led me to read your post because I am relating to the emotion in it on this particular day and what I gathered on my drive home was to pay more heed to God's Word and less to what this world tells us. Even our own minds can lead us down "Emotion Avenue" that doesn't benefit our walk nor our journey. Detoured that way TOO often and I remember the bumps all to well.
No matter what the day holds or doesn't hold, think about things that are true, noble, right. Meditate on whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable. If anything is excellent or praiseworthy…THESE are the things we need to think about because these are the things from God and when our focus is on these, life WILL be full. EVEN if we think it's empty, because THAT is how the Supernatural life is lived.
Not seeing but believing.
Ian. This message was for me also because I really did not have one word of this planned.
The words I speak are Spirit and they are life. ~ John 6:63
The words I type are also Spirit and they just brought God's to LIFE between us Ian.
It's moments like this that fill the void.
You are blessed my friend 🙂
I am excited to hear the details on God pursuing you! He plays "TAG" Ian. He wants us to chase Him too! 😉 LOL
Joanna, hi. Thanks once again for a fabulously inspiring comment to what was one of my first posts.
You kinda summed up what pursuing Jesus is all about in your words: "Meditate on whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable. If anything is excellent or praiseworthy…" Funny, I read those words earlier so must be a sign for me to do just that. We see Him when we mediate like that and in so doing fill the "void."
Grace and peace, Joanna
As soon as I read "one of my first posts" I was like…"WHAT?" Scrolled back to the top of the page and sure enough. There it is. 2012. LOL
Oh well. Encouragement is good at all times and God uses it to inspire us.
Look up and be encouraged daily. The heavens are open. 🙂

Another study shows how diet could make a difference in how you recover from a stroke.
The research from the Albert Einstein Healthcare Network in Philadelphia indicates that stroke patients are at an increased risk of memory problems and disability if they have low levels of the so called "good" cholesterol... and high levels of an amino acid, which comes from eating meat.
The problems were also linked with older age, diabetes, recurrent strokes, and minority racial and ethnic groups.
