Norman couple's "His & Hers Outdoors" show growing in popularity
In real life, Jon Sissney is a mechanic. His wife, Stacy, is a stay-at-home mom.
On television, the Norman couple is "His & Hers Outdoors," an outdoors show that airs every Sunday morning on Dish Network's Hunt Channel (Channel 266) and will join the Pursuit Channel in January.
"It's kind of like a secret identity," Jon Sissney said of "His & Hers Outdoors." "During the week it's a grind. On the weekends, we are out doing stuff."
Jon Sissney, 37, owns Red Dirt Auto, an auto repair shop near I-40 and Council Road, but his passion is the outdoors.
Jon introduced Stacy, a Wisconsin native, to hunting, and for the past 13 years they have been sharing outdoor adventures together.
He taught her to shoot a bow, and now Stacy is a championship-level archer. Last weekend, she won the Archery Shooters Association Texas state championship in the women's hunter division.
The couple was meeting fans Friday at the H&H Shooting Sports Complex as part of the store's annual Summer Expo. Stacy, 40, says she is still shocked when she gets recognized at Wal-Mart.
"It's happening more and more," Stacy said. "You get a look like, 'I know you from somewhere.'"
Three years ago, the couple started filming their hunts to memorialize them. They later decided to make a television show about their hunting and fishing adventures, even though they had no experience in the business.
They called some people who used to be in the industry for advice on how to get on television. Their first show appeared on the KSBI-TV three years ago, and they admit it wasn't very good.
"Hated it," Jon said.
"Horrified," Stacy said.
"We had that deer in the headlights look," Jon said.
"I didn't think I sounded anything like I hear myself," Stacy said. "I stared and stuttered. The hunting part of it was all right."
Through trial and error, the Sissneys and the show have constantly improved, and the proof is in their growing audience.
Most of the shows are about hunting in Oklahoma and the surrounding states. But there are also are fishing trips and plans for episodes about camping and outdoor cooking.
The husband and wife team make it different from most outdoor shows, but the Sissneys also are willing to be on camera out of their comfort zone, such as their first time fly fishing on a trip to the Lower Mountain Fork River.
"A lot of it is us learning to do something new and not coming across as an expert," Stacy said.
Later this year, Stacy will be part of an all-girls, self-guided mule deer hunt in Wyoming with Jon's cousin and one of her friends for a show.
Because they appear on television, Jon said most people assume they must be getting rich.
"We get it all the time, 'Oh, you got a TV show. You must be making a ton of money," Jon said. "People think since you are on TV that you must be getting paid. That is far from the truth. The way outdoors TV works, we've got to buy our TV time.
"We have to pay someone to produce the show. Then we put it out there. The only way we are able to do that is find sponsors, we like to call them partners, like H&H."
The auto repair shop is still paying the bills, but the Sissneys say they are having a blast hosting "His & Her Outdoors."
Their 7-year-old daughter, Maison, is often featured, and more cousins and kids will be joining in on the family outdoor adventures next season.
Maybe the Sissneys will become Oklahoma's version of Duck Dynasty.
"Without the beards," Stacy insists.

Mujeres De Chonima Group
Since they have limited resources, the members of this group decided to request a loan from Asociación ASDIR so that they could improve the living conditions of their families. The loan will be a great help with expanding their business capital, improving their sales, and increasing their financial income.
Las integrantes del grupo decidieron solicitar un crédito en ASDIR para poder mejorar sus condiciones de vida y la de su familia ya que estas personas son de escasos recursos y es de gran ayuda para ellas ampliar su capital de negocio y mejoras sus ventas como también sus ingresos económicos.
Additional Information
About Asociación ASDIRASDIR (Asociación de Desarrollo Integral Rural - Association for the Development of Rural Communities) is a community-based organization that works to promote development in the villages and communities where it serves. It was founded in 1999 in the village of Nimasac, Totonicapán Department, by a handful of local men and women to support community projects and group loans. Today ASDIR has 5 offices across 3 departments (Totonicapán, Sololá and Suchitepéquez) serving more than 6,000 clients, most of them in rural communities.
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.

Ghana is rich in natural resources. It is a fact that the quality of diamonds and gold from Ghana is rated as one of the best as compared to other countries. This has created increased demand from his buyers, but he is not able to meet those demands. He buys the gold and diamonds at high prices from the suppliers, but, because of the economic situation he now finds himself in, he is not able to buy more. He is requesting loan support to buy more gold and diamonds to supply his exclusive customers. He was thinking about forming a partnership so that he could buy more, but there are none to find. Sulemana has a diamond in his palm in this picture. He would be grateful for your support. He belongs to the village bank called Divine.

Journey To Space | 3D
A celebration of space exploration, Journey to Space is a tribute to international cooperation in space research and a vision toward our near-term future beyond Earth's orbit – a manned mission to Mars within a generation. Beautifully and inspiringly chronicling our history in space – including the shuttle program, MIR, the International Space Station and the Hubble telescope – Journey to Space recognizes these milestones in the context of our future in the cosmos, what we've learned, and how to apply this knowledge to deep space missions. The film takes audiences on a behind-the-scenes tour of the international effort to send astronauts to Mars within the next 20 years, culminating in a virtual voyage to the Red Planet. Dazzling and meticulous computer imagery depicts the new machines that will soon enter into our lexicon – Orion, Olympus, SLS rockets – spacecraft, habitats, landers, and vehicles necessary to achieve interplanetary travel, touchdown and colonization.
Journey to Space taps into the same human fervor and fascination that makes science fiction so popular, our unquenchable drive to explore and discover what lies beyond. This film, though, is not fiction. Mars is the next step in what will be an unending human odyssey to explore the cosmos. Journey to Space is about the next chapter, a vision certain to inspire today's young explorers and dreamers. It is time to take the next great leap into space. It is time for our species, in the words of Carl Sagan, to "set sail across the cosmic ocean." Next stop… Mars!

Canadians prescribed marijuana to treat illness will have more choice in where to buy their drugs after a court ruling Monday that ends the federal government's monopoly on supplying medical marijuana to patients.
Justice Department lawyers had sought to appeal a lower-court ruling that granted licensed producers the right to grow marijuana for more than one patient.
But the Federal Court of Appeal dismissed the government's challenge, saying it was not persuaded by government lawyers who argued that growers supplying more than one patient would lead to an unregulated industry.
In January, a federal court judge struck down the one-to-one ratio as unconstitutional and unnecessarily restrictive. The judgment was stayed pending Monday's appeal.
Lawyer Alan Young, who represented medical marijuana users, said the ruling was a victory for sick people.
"It's time for Health Canada to recognize that medical marijuana is an established part of the regimen for a lot of patients," Young said outside court. "Instead of thwarting patient needs, they should be accommodating patient needs and, hopefully, this case will be a signal to them."

7th July - London Bombings. No show today folks in memory of the victims
Services have been held to remember the "ocean of pain" caused by the London bombings, in which 52 people died and more than 700 were hurt a decade ago.
As a commuter that day I recall the carnage , the bedlam and recall the shock that something so terrible could be thrust upon Western hard working society.
My thoughts are with the victims of the loved ones.
God Bless

HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP) -- It's official: Southern Miss shortstop Brian Dozier will suit up for the College World Series.
Coach Corky Palmer watched Dozier take live pitching Tuesday and announced Wednesday that Dozier would be added to the roster for the trip to Omaha, Neb. The Golden Eagles open Sunday with Texas, the No. 1 seed.
Dozier has been out since April 16 surgery to repair a broken collarbone. He was batting .394 in 35 starts before the injury snapped his streak of 131 consecutive starts.
The senior from Fulton, Miss., won't likely play in the field because of reduced arm strength, but will be available as a pinch and designated hitter and could play defense in an emergency.

- Deuterostome evolution;
- hemichordates;
- molecular phylogeny
The graptolites, known only from fossils, have been convincingly allied to the pterobranch hemichordates, a group of tiny, mostly colonial marine invertebrates bearing feeding arms. The phylogenetic position of pterobranchs has been subject to debate and revision for over a century. Their colonial lifestyle and feeding arms were originally seen as evidence placing them among the bryozoans, until later and more careful anatomical studies revealed more characters in common with acorn worms. Pterobranchs and acorn worms are now grouped as the phylum Hemichordata. For many decades, it was thought that pterobranchs were closer to the ancestral form of hemichordates, particularly because 'lophophorate' invertebrates also possess feeding arms, notably the phoronids and bryozoans, as do crinoid echinoderms. This traditional view has been challenged by recent molecular evidence. First, there is strong molecular evidence to indicate that lophophorates are very distant from hemichordates and echinoderms, in a different major branch of the animal phylogenetic tree. Therefore, similarities between the feeding structures must be due to convergent evolution. Second, there is strong evidence that hemichordates and echinoderms form a clade (Ambulacraria) within the deuterostomes, rather than hemichordates being closer to chordates. Third, there is weaker evidence that pterobranchs may be derived from acorn worms, and hence that the vermiform body plan may be ancestral within hemichordates. This suggestion warrants further testing. Here we review the evidence for these conclusions, highlight strengths and weaknesses in the data and analyses, and consider the implications for the origins of pterobranchs and graptolites.

Former Democratic vice presidential nominee John Edwards wants Michigan lawmakers to increase the minimum wage in the state.
The former North Carolina senator appeared at a rally on the Capitol steps Wednesday. He says raising the minimum wage will help reduce the number of people living in poverty.
Democrats in the House and Senate introduced a package of bills to raise the minimum wage from $5.15 cents to $7.15 over the next two years. They want to gradually increase the rate, going up by 75 cents on July 1. It would go up again by 75 cents in January 2006 and another 50 cents in January 2007.
Republican legislative leaders have been unwilling to take up the legislation because they are worried it will hurt the state's already struggling economy.

And from hereon, feel free to call me the Patron Saint of Cinnamon Rolls for talking about and making way too much of them. Anyway, I think I've finally got my holy grail recipe sealed to perfection, after a several baking litanies. If you're still searching for a cinnamon roll recipe to knock your socks off, I've updated the recipe with less flour, a different kind of sugar for the caramel, and a hint of lemon for the glaze. I've discovered the goodness of using turbinado sugar for the caramel by accident — because I ran out of golden brown cane sugar. Who knew it would make it extra extra gooey? I got the idea to add lemon because I add a hint of lemon when making sweet stuff like flan (which also has caramel) and it elevates all the flavors, plus it smells good. If you'd like an easy-to-print PDF copy, you can download it here » Ultimate Caramel Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Glaze.
Oh, by the way, would you like the recipes to be print-ready in PDF? We're looking into incorporating that to get you cooking faster. What do you think? Your feedback would be helpful!
Enjoy the rolls and happy weekend everyone!

Update on AlfoitaAfloita is making great progress in selling green technologies in her community. She appreciates the extra income to look educate her children.
Kopernik originally listed this loan with fixed monthly repayments however as actual sales are difficult to predict in advance, repayments were not being made at the fixed rate. This loan will be repaid as actual sales are made. She may even pay her loan off early!
Afloita hopes you can support her again.
Previous Loan DetailsAfloita was born and raised in Ende on the island of Flores in East Nusa Tenggara province. She moved to the neighbouring island after getting married. She is a famous cook in her area, selling Timorese traditional food from a pop-up stall in her yard. She started this business to generate inc... More from Alfoita's previous loan »
Additional Information
More information about this loan
This loan will help Kopernik to provide its network of independent re-sellers with inventory for simple, life-changing technologies, as opposed to cash or financial credit. Retailers will receive products such as water filters, solar lamps, efficient cookstoves, micro irrigation systems, corn shellers, milk pasteurizers, clean birth kits, infant warmers, mosquito nets and solar hearing aids.
These retailers typically own pre-existing small businesses and wish to provide their communities with these technologies. They are responsible for repaying the cost of the products to Kopernik over the course of the loan term.
Kopernik will collect repayments from retailers each month based on their sales and this money will be returned to Kiva lenders. However, since actual sales are difficult to predict in advance, the repayment schedule on Kiva has been listed with only a single bullet repayment at the end of the term. This structure gives the retailers flexibility to repay on a schedule that works for their individual business needs.
About Kopernik:Kopernik is a nonprofit organization that helps rural retailers in Indonesia sell simple, life-improving technologies to their communities. Founded in 2009, it connects technology makers with local partners in remote areas to address needs like clean water, electricity, food security and healthcare. Kiva funding will enable retailers to purchase more inventory at a better price, thereby increasing the distribution of life-improving technologies in rural communities.
Kopernik joined Kiva through our Experimental Partnership Program, and has therefore received a lighter level of due diligence. Accordingly, loans associated with this partner carry a higher level of risk than typical Kiva loans.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Rangefinder, Friendship 7
During his three-orbit flight on February 20, 1962, John Glenn used this photometer/rangefinder to measure the airglow layer around the Earth. Sometimes called a Voasmeter photometer - after Robert Voas, who trained early astronauts for NASA - the device allowed Glenn to look through the filter and make measurements with the small dial. Information could be gathered from these observations on the intensity of both sunlight and starlight.
Glenn was the first astronaut to use hand-held cameras in space and performed some simple scientific experiments and Earth observations during his short flight. For photography, he carried a modified Leica camera for standard black and white images and an Ansco Autoset camera - modified with ultraviolet film- aboard the spacecraft. Other devices such as a rangefinder and this photometer were used in making astronomical observations which were continued with better equipment on successive Mercury missions.
NASA transferred this rangefinder to the Museum along with all other Friendship 7 equipment in 1967.

Jake the Shiba Inu by kkjjccWatch
©2011-2016 kkjjcc
Jake, my 2 year old shiba inu
Shibas rock! They are incredible animals (and don't consider themselves "animals" if they don't wish to). Beautiful dog.
They do indeed rock, and he does try to act as if he wasn't an "animal". I pretty much allow this but I make sure he understands who is in charge. It is important that I do or else he will take advantage
Hi jaaaake.
OMG I'm SOOO Jealous!!!
Cute x3
I have a shiba inu as well...his name is Shiloh
I swear he is the cutest dog i've ever seen! I want him

A Trenton farmer has lost a half-million dollars worth of belongings due to a Sunday morning fire in one of his workshops, according to officials.
Eric Merritt, Jones County Emergency Manager, said the fire started at roughly 11:15 a.m. in a workshop in back of the barn, completely destroying the building. The farm is located on the 400 block of Old-Kinston-Trenton Road.
Merritt said 5 fire departments responded, including Phillips CrossRoads, Comfort, Trenton, Southwood, and Wyse Fork.
No injuries were reported.

It was still better than the JJ Abrams versions of Star Trek.
I'm totally loving the Wesley is gay thing. Since, you know, he is. I was always really into him as a kid when I watched this show growing up.
I want to see Deep Space sixty 9 where Wesley is on an away team to the planet Lesbos and has a special encounter with Jedward.
...I never knew how much I wanted a porn video until just now. That sounds fucking hot.
You missed that the backdrop from the romulan ship was the corridor into the engine of the Event Horizon.
According to the captain's log, this takes place right around the same time as "Tapestry", where the playful god Q sends Picard back in time to show him that he has to take risks and not compromise what he believes in. Food for thought.
How'd you figure that out, by cross-referencing the stardates, I guess? So you think it's possible this porno is really Q showing Picard what it would be like if his entire crew was banging each other on the holodeck?
It's as good a theory as any, except for the fact that the many times Q flirted with Picard show he'd be first in line for the aforementioned banging.Or, maybe, it's an alternate universe retelling of "Tapestry" - Picard is being shown the horrible alternatives to scoring with Q, so Picard will realize that the only course of action would be to, ahem, make it so.
Please tell me someone is making the sequel; Deep Space Nine Inches.
I personally can't wait for Star Trek Voyeur...
I LOVED the Wesley Crusher action figure scenes--precious!!!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it... Action Figure Wesley will return! Eventually.
I really liked your skit with the Star Trek action figures. Tell me, did you already have the Bridge playset and all the figures just laying around. or did you have to buy/borrow them?It looked like a lot of fun to film. ;)
No, I didn't already own the action figures, at least I can say that much for myself. But you can get this stuff for dirt cheap on eBay. The action figures were less than a buck each, and the bridge set was under $40. A dog had chewed on Riker's console, but that was fine by me. Of course, now that I actually spent money on this thing, you can be sure the TNG cast will show up again in future reviews.
Hey, that is well spent money then. *thumbs up*However as a Trekkie, that prices hurt me. ^^Oh the good old days with the Bridge-Playset.I had one, too, back in the days. ^^
the woman playing crusher looks like the same girl who played scully in the 2 porn parodies of that. well parody isnt right as they werent comedies and took themselves very seriously and i was impressed with how acurate and well made they were. they even went as far as using 1013 for the time and things. lol
"I'm so freaky the girls from 2 Girls 1 Cup need to film their own reactions when they watch me"Ok, one of you guys need to do the The Human Sexipede because that was amazing:).
Just for your information, that rock formation you mentioned where some STAR TREK episodes were shot is called Vasquez Rocks. It is located off Aqua Dulce road off the 14 Fwy in the L.A. high desert area.
I was actually wondering when PC was going to get around to this but dammit Winston your intro's sweet as hell.Heh, the Holodeck is the champagne room of the Enterprise. Well jeebus, doctor what do you think a holodeck would actually be used for? LOLI'm still wrapping my brain around Data money shot. I mean, how would that even.....
He IS fully functional. In every way, of course. Programmed in multiple techniques, a broad variety of pleasuring.Don't ask, just....Season One. It's....what it is.
with Tasha Yar I remember that
Yeah, I'm pretty sure a real holodeck would be used for that, and you'd think a TNG porn would have made sure to include scenes like that. Instead, everybody in this movie (other than Geordi) has sex with real people, and they only use the holodeck to create virtual environments for their sexy time. What a friggin' waste.And I'm pretty sure Data is supposed to have bodily fluids, he implied it in that one episode where he somehow caught the same virus as everybody else. Though I'm guessing it was such a dumb idea that it was never brought up again.
In an "episode" where everyone has sex...Geordi still manages to be the one person not really having sex. Even this corner of the Trek universe seems to have it out for him.
Wait a minute... In the scene where Troi is about to fellate Riker, it looks like she is unzipping the front of his pants. Didn't Gene Roddenberry once say that they don't use zippers any more in the 24th century, that they've been replaced by superior technology that doesn't place soft fleshy parts in danger of laceration by sharp metal bits? (Well, he didn't say that last phrase, but he did mention that zippers are obsolete in the timeframe of TNG.) The Dr. Crusher-Picard coupling at least makes sense based on the established characters, and the fact that Dr. Crusher is barely in the movie and does nothing of consequence is also in keeping with the established pattern for TNG :)
Yeah, I pretty much lost it when the action figures started raping Wesley. "Make it so!"
It wasn't rape! Wesley totally consented to it! And he's an adult in this version.
Too accurate to the source material, requiring too much foreknowledge to even understand the plot? Too sexless? Too boring? Too long? Decent special effects? Professional (non-nude) impressionist?If someone holds a gun to my head and demands I choose a porn to watch, I finally have an answer. Thank you, Doctor O'Boogie!
So when are we going to get "Agony Booth: The Porn Parody?" Given the name, though, people might be expecting too much S&M content.
As soon as I get some money together...
Could you give me a few months advance warning? I'm going to want to get into shape first. In fact, everyone is going to want me to get in shape first.
I'd comment on this, but certain people might never talk to me again if I did. Or, she'd make me the gimp for any actual agonizing. Hmmm...
I am Tiberius! And you are all my Little Fishes!
MR Mendo reviewing Caligula, Tiberius's drunk face is so hilarious he even makes it after he died.
Now, there's a thought...
Wait, there is more than one Enterprise?I'd say something about this movie, but I haven't been able to stop laughing at the Star Trek dolls segment XDDENNY CRANE
Yeah, Star Trek is a lot like Doctor Who: to an outsider, most of it sounds stupid and made up...
Seriously, I tried many times, but that damn technobabble....
I guess that is why The Original Series will always be my favorite in that there is a minimum of technobabble. Sadly it looks so dated now that many people can't take TOS seriously.
Oh I love both Doctor who and Star Trek! But you gotta be in the mood of things and accept the shows for what they are, they are "High concept adventure." shows where it's about the fun first and all the deeper stuff only second. And yep, I love the TOS series for how they handle the techno stuff, it's just. "How does this work?" "I don't know." *Moves on with actual plot* X) I think McCoy has the record for any Trek character to say. "I don't know." the most times, and btw, every single time he says. "Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor not a ******" that's just another way of saying. "I don't know." Also.. just count all the times Scottie says. "I fixed it captain!" he never explains how, he just fix's it. That's so lovely. Later series are really shooting itself in the foot by trying to sound smart, by making up lots of words. I mean.. you are making the ship go faster right? good, then just say that! the highest level Doctor who obtained in techno babble is. "I reversed the polarity of the neutrion flaw! so I fixed it!" doesn't mean shit, but it's fun when he says it, he basically just fixed what-ever with his magical sonic screwdriver X)
The Doctor is best when he skips even trying to explain things and just goes with, "Wibbly-wobbly timey-whimey."**Note for any Danes reading: those words don't really mean anything in English either.
But damn it sounds awesome
Oh I know, i speak English pretty well."No, time is not linear, it's more, timey wimey, squishy wishy, bobly wubbly. You see?" "...." Code for. "The writers have no idea, they just write what-ever that fits todays episode."
"But you gotta be in the mood of things and accept the shows for what they are, they are "High concept adventure." shows where it's about the fun first and all the deeper stuff only second."I can't speak for Doctor Who, but I think Trek's at its best when it plays things seriously, and I've gotten the (rare) impression most of the other fans feel likewise. TNG episodes like "The Inner Light", "The Best of Both Worlds", "Pegasus", "Tapestry", "The Defector", "The Wounded", "The Measure of a Man", and "Yesterday's Enterprise" are among the soberest, darkest, and most serious episodes. Throw in DS9's "Duet", "For the Uniform", "In the Pale Moonlight", and too many others to mention, and you get a pretty strong correlation between the serious episodes and the popular ones. However, none of these episodes rely on technobabble to sell the plot. That's a trick used by weaker writers to patch together a script that fundamentally doesn't work on its own. Like every single Holodeck episode. Or the thirty-nine (I'm guessing) episodes where they create a gravimetric field by shooting an inverse tachyon beam off the deflector dish and the resulting chronotons....do something. Yeah, that stuff doesn't work on any level.Of course, there are some fun episodes that are popular. Usually, though, the episodes that aim for "silly" miss and end up hitting "stupid". A lot of the early TNG episodes (complete with comic relief characters and comedic musical cues), and most of the Ferengi-based DS9 episodes, tried for this, and few of them are popular with anyone.It's only TOS that needs the "fun" angle to make it work, since most episodes are either cheesy to the core or just too dated values-and/or-effects-wise to work today. To have any chance of enjoying them, you do HAVE to be in the mood for fun.
It's still a high concept show, and you can allow these high concept things to tell about high concept, metaphorical ideas. The inner light, is very much a high concept episode, if it's not advanced technology making that plot possible, it would have to be magic. And you can use this high concept stuff to explore human nature and so on. Does this mean the show should take itself less seriously? Of cause not! I wouldn't want any show to just stop taking itself seriously. But have just a grant of self awareness now and then, and realise you are fighting. "An alien warrior race whom drinks beverages as were they marvel vikings and will rather fight with bafflets than stunners."And without this concept having just some sort of fun-factor, some sort of. "We have a space-ship and we go boldly to where no man has gone before! WEEE!" Factor, the show ends up taking itself far to seriously and siezes being any good. *cough voyager, cough* You see for me "Fun." is not just about comedy, it's also about some-one jumping off a roof-top and swinging in a chandelier, to me that's fun to. being in a space-battle, all fun stuff! Say what you want, but Kirk starting to hit the alien races on the nose while going into a hand to hand combat with them. Or Data looking at some human interaction clearly understanding sip of it, that's fun stuff, and it needs to be a mainly funny joyful ride for the audience, occasionally going darker places to obtain greater world and character depth, but only when the plot or characters naturally moves over there, and then we need to move back again before long. Like it or not, Star Trek always had a lot of silly things in it, that's the nature of the show, but also part of what makes it so compelling to begin with. That it has an extra layer when it becomes good, is only good. Though I do admit, whereas Star Trek is mainly an action show with only occasional comedy. Doctor who is equal comedy and action show, and the comedy fun factor is more obvious and more important in doctor who to make it work.
"The inner light, is very much a high concept episode, if it's not advanced technology making that plot possible, it would have to be magic. And you can use this high concept stuff to explore human nature and so on."Absolutely. The best episodes all have their high-concept elements to them, they just don't dwell on them or try to explain them to everybody. Tapestry? Q has magic, shut up and accept it. Inner Light? The probe hits Picard with....technology...shut up! Best of Both Worlds? Borg....science....Picard...and then, Crusher...cures him...with science....shut up! Like you say, they just mention something happened and move on. The best episodes are approachable to everyone since they have solid stories that could totally work outside the Trek universe and speak to universal themes using plain language. I don't think we're disagreeing about this point."An alien warrior race whom drinks beverages as were they marvel vikings"You mean prune juice? That's a warrior's drink. :p"And without this concept having just some sort of fun-factor, some sort of. 'We have a space-ship and we go boldly to where no man has gone before! WEEE!'"Yeah, it'd be pretty fun if they were this self-consciously goofy. But I guess I'll have to content myself with this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3rFNbSKpEEThat will always be beautiful to me.Oh, I get that Trek is silly sometimes. I've just gathered the impression that most fans (and it's rare that I find myself in a majority, so I'm gonna make a big deal about it!) prefer the more serious episodes. Those are the ones that tend to get talked about and end up on people's Top Whatever lists, at least."Say what you want, but Kirk starting to hit the alien races on the nose while going into a hand to hand combat with them."Kirk fighting the Gorn will ALWAYS be fun. He throws a styrofoam rock at a rubber-headed lizard-man's face, and it just bounces off while we hear fake hissing noises come from off-screen. That's fun. In a stupid way.
I do think it's a genneral thing with writing any-thing really, that you use comedy to make up a point, ease the tension or lighten up the mood, then make the more dark aspects look that much stronger in comparison to the comedy. Just take the play I am currently inovled with, the first script was dead serious and there was no humour in it at all, then I came along and said. "Psst, put in some dark jokes, like this." and now we have a lot of smaller funny moments which makes the script stronger, at least in my opinon. Did that change the initial story, themes or lessons of the story? no, it didn't, it merely made it easier to digest. And trek, doesn't lend itself to straight comedy.. it does not. It tried a couple of times and failed. What it lends itself well to his high concept philosophical stories, which a little touch of comedy to make it fun. And between that, we have tons of funny stuff going on with space-battles, combat situations, snouty ambassadors and stuff. It is of cause a given that any writer should know when to break tension with comedy and when not to do it, when to take the story absolutely seriously and when not to do it. The borg episodes, took themselves and the borg, one hundred percent seriously, that's the only way to make them scary. Same way Doctor who always takes his Daleks serious when they come, so it's. "Holy shit! Daleks, oh no!" it's still a fun show, but it takes itself serious when it should! I'm just say.. mix it up! and know what to do what! As I always say when writing some-thing, start out light! say hallo and welcome with a smile and a pleasent greeting, making the audience comfortable, lure them in with fun and comfort.... then sweep the carpet away from under their feets, ones they all-ready are engaged, and STUN them! that's what really stands out. You can't do that right away, you need to build up some nice cosy familiarity first. And then a last, end on a fun high note so the audience can feel good about itself when it leaves. Screen-writing, one oh one. start out light and fun, then first later go serious and 'holy crap' end on a fun high note, mix it up and use the elements to support each other and make each other stand out ;)
To quote the Doctor: "This is my timey-wimey detector. It goes 'ding' when there's stuff." Or, to quote one of the TNG producers when asked by a fan how the Heisenberg Compensator (part of the transporter system) works: "It works very well, thank you."Yes, science fiction shows tend to work best when they keep the technobabble to a minimum. This is one reason (among very many) that I enjoyed "Babylon 5" so much- they didn't bog things down by explaining how the technology works. We learn early on that humans don't have artificial gravity, which is why the space station has to rotate on its axis to generate centrifugal force, and why the largest Earthforce ships have rotating sections. Large ships of the advanced alien races (specifically the Minbari) don't have these rotating sections, but it wasn't commented on; the audience was left to deduce that these species had developed artificial gravity, which was later confirmed in dialogue. Even then, they don't spend 5 pages of dialogue and introduce three new kinds of particles to explain it; it's just "This is an advanced technology that Earth would like to acquire." Or, if I may give another quote to illustrate the correct approach to technobabble:Captain Sheridan: "Mr. Lennier! Get us the hell out of here!"Lennier: "Aye, Captain. Commencing 'getting the hell out of here' maneuver."No "Increase power to main starboard impeller while decreasing torque to the stators to create autochthonous plantagenets"- just tell us we need to escape, and say we're doing it. (And if it's a funny line that fits in with how the character of Lennier is somewhat less than respectful to SHeridan, so much the better.) It's okay to include some tech-speak, but it should be minimal, and if possible reasonably related to real science. In one "Babylon 5" episode, Doctor Franklin gives a fairly detailed description of how nerve impulses travel across synapses, but it's justified because a) that information is key to explaining why the plague is affecting certain species on the station but not others, and b) it is actually a correct description of how synapses work. Well, sorry to gush so much about "Babylon 5", I just really love that show and hardly anyone discusses it anymore.
One thing I've long wanted to know was: How serious was TOS taken by those who knew the franchise pre-TNG? TNG was my introduction, and I learned to love the franchise through it and DS9. TOS was, at first, a silly predecessor, iconic, but not to be taken seriously. Over time, I've come to appreciate the old series somewhat (I still can't take it seriously, I can only enjoy it for the cheese and give it allowances for its dated-ness), but it will never be MY Trek.Were you a Trek fan before TNG took off? If so, was TOS a serious thing, or did it always have a tongue-in-cheek kind of "fun", simple quality?
"was TOS a serious thing, or did it always have a tongue-in-cheek kind of 'fun', simple quality?"Not sure where you'd get the idea that it was tongue-in-cheek. Roddenberry approached his social commentary goals with the series with dead earnestness, despite there being comedic moments and certain episodes with comedic themes. There are about as many dated/cheesy aspects to every other Star Trek TV show and movie that's been made, and it will certainly be the case with the new Abrams sequel coming out this year -- that's pretty much a given for any television show with special effects which attempts to portray the fashions and technology of the future. They are always going to be dated when looked on from the future. I don't think the original series is unique in that regard. In each case the shows were done in earnestness not for intentional camp value (except for certain comedy themed episodes such as "Trouble with Tribbles").There would have been no hardcore Trek fandom lobbying for anything past the original series if they hadn't taken the show seriously rather than "tongue-in-cheek." Tongue-in-cheek doesn't inspire that level of fanaticism.
Speaking for myself, I was a huge 'Trek fan before TNG, but I am 45 so that is the show I grew up with. I never found the costumes or special effects to be all that dated at the time I watched it.
historically speaking, it bombed when it was send at Prime-time, no one in the adult audience liked it, and it was supposed to be cancelled after two seasons, but managed to hold unto three, even if not the five seasons they had hoped for with the, you know. "Five years mission." narration by the beginning of each episode. then, the best thing that could ever happen to the show happened.. I am not lying. It was send in the kids hours at the kid channels. and the kids LOVED it, and took it deeply seriously. Among them were a lot of girls, and thus the shipper culture was born, and the first convention inviting the actors.. and thus the con culture was born because of the shipper culture because of teen girls. And I am not making any of that up, which I don't mind, cause I think it's awesome history X)
I like TOS so far (only have watched 2 episodes) and actually not taking it seriously is helping me enjoy it even more xD It's just so damn funny.
Don't let it intimidate you. If you don't understand something in Trek, you don't need to; just treat it like magic and move on. If something's actually important to the story, they'll use real words to explain it. Except for Voyager.Silent film directors used to believe that the more intertitles (black screens with words) they used in the movie, the worse storytellers they were, since they were supposed to be able to convey ideas to the audience without interrupting the flow of the story. It works the same way with Trek: the best episodes have the least amount of distracting Treknobabble.
Don't mind me too much. I just am not a fan of the space opera in general. They bore me honestly, though I will admit I'm very hypocritical. I mean I like Dr. Who and Firefly and Andromeda but Galatica and the Treks and the Wars are blahblahblahactionblahblah. I'm just a lost cause.
You had me at "I like...Firefly". No probs. :)...Wait....you don't even like Star Wars? Like the original trilogy, or at least the first two?
Well.....ok, I don't hate Star Wars. I like parts of them. I like lightsabers, of course Han Solo and Billy Dee Williams, Force abilities are awesome, the Falcon is sweet, Vader sounds awesome (thats James Earl Jones for ya).....and the points dries up quick. No offense, but it is not my type of thing. I think it's the fact that I just like my stories "small scope". I think it's the "spanding epic" that gets to me. It's my main beef with the LotR films (and I LOVE me some fantasy).
My thoughts exactly!
But... every-thing in Stark Trek and Doctor who 'is' made up.. and out-side of an fantasy plot, it is pretty stupid. Bafflet any-one?
What I hate is when it sounds real, I'm trying to follow along, and then I remember that they don't employ real theoretical physicists and I'm trying to keep up with technobabble.
I was always saddened that Leonard Nimoy never did make that cameo on Boston Legal.
Like Stephen Fry never making that cameo on House.
Black Adder freakin rules.
Glad you enjoyed it, that part literally took me weeks to film. But I must take exception with calling them "dolls". Real men play with Star Trek action figures!Oh and one more thing... DENNY CRANE
Worth every minute of the weeks you took to film the 'action figure' consensual Wesley sex parody. Very funny. I need to film something like it with my woolly mammoth collection. I mean with any free time spent not going through hospital and dentist office dumpsters looking for the Pedisedate. .

"I have never read such a script full of emotions...real emotions. Genuinely, I was moved by the script of 'Hawaa Hawaai'," Saqib said here Sunday, during the shoot of a music video for the film.
"I felt 'this is the story I want to be a part of anyhow'. I thought as an actor it will be a huge challenge for me," he added.
The 25-year-old, who plays a young skating coach in the film, said that as an actor, he found the depth and turmoil of his character in the film very challenging.
"So far whatever characters I have played in my earlier films, including in 'Bombay Talkies', they have been urban, cool but this character (in 'Hawaa Hawaai') for me has a lot of depth," said Saqib, who has been part of films like "Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge", "Mere Dad Ki Maruti" and "Bombay Talkies".
"I play my age in the film but there is a lot of turmoil that my character goes through in the film. For me, that was a challenge," he added.
To get into the skin of his character in the film, Saqib trained under two skating coaches and even sought inspiration from the film's director.
He even learnt the nuances of dealing with childern as his character requires to train a group of kids in skating.
"I used to see them and how they dealt with the kids as I play a young skating coach in the film and I am very passionate about this sport. Before doing this film I didn't know how to deal with the kids. But now I can say ' I can handle kids," the actor said.
"Hawa Hawaai", which hits theatres April 18, also stars Gupte's son Partho.

text: last night I was sent an IM that was called LOSER with a cartoon attachment. It supposedly came from the person I was talking to - but it didn't. At the same time he got the same one, as with my other friend. I've had nothing but problems since and it seems to have gone through my msn address book. I've ran Microsoft Anti spyware, spybot and Norton's, it keeps on coming back. Tonight's message was called Pearljam or something like that. Has anyone else had this problem and DOES anyone know how to FIX IT? I'm getting frustrated. Sharon

2005 Public Appearances readded
As said before, while I'm reorganizing the new gallery, I'm replacing tagged and MQ pictures for untagged with best quality as possible. I've just added 1200+ pictures under 2005 Appearances, mostly HQ sized. We have a few events we didn't had before, so be sure to check it.

"People Magazine: Woman of the Year" scans
Thanks to lovely Nicky we have now scans of Sandra covering the Best of 2010 issue of Playboy. Check the gallery (and don't forget to link us back if reposting) 😉
Magazine Scans > Magazines in 2009 to 2010 > 2010 – People (December 23, 2010)
The gallery transfer has started
As promised, and better late than never, I started transferring everything from old gallery to the new one. No ones deserves that mess that became our old gallery, I'm sorry about that.
While transferring, I realized our previous files was totally tagged with the site's older name and mostly pictures were MQ sized. So I went ahead and replaced everything with untagged and HQ sized.
For now on, we just have events from 2006 to 2010 on our new gallery, but everything is organized now. And don't worry, I'll be working to finish the transfer until the end of this month.

Sandra to present at Oscars
Academy Awards winners Sandra Bullock, Jeff Bridges, Halle Berry and Marisa Tomei are confirmed to hit the stage as presenters at the next Oscar show on Feb. 27, along with past nominee Oprah Winfrey, producers of the telecast announced Monday.
Nominations for the 83rd annual Academy Awards, which will be hosted be actors James Franco and Anne Hathaway, are due out Jan. 25.
Site Status
I think you all are wondering what the hell is going on with Adoring Sandra.
Well, Sandy news are really low this days. But, as you may know – if you're a regular visitor here – , I don't post gossipy articles or paparazzi pictures, and it's everything that has been surfacing regarding Sandy this days. But the site isn't dead, or abandoned.
That revamp I promised you months ago are still up, and it will be done this year. The old gallery will be transferred and new files are just ready to be added. I'm just finishing some things at work (yeah, real life has been calling me too much this months), and will have plenty of time to work on it. Please, bare with me and thanks for this huge patience. It will worth the wait. 🙂
I added a new layout to our new gallery, and will star the transfer this weekend. See you!

Regarding Toni Montgomery's May 15 letter, "The fact is coal is dirty," American coal may be "dirty," but Canadian coal is not, and here is why:
Coal trains from the interior to export ports near Vancouver at first generated some wind-blown coal dust and the public complained. In response, the Canadian Pacific railroad and the mines devised a cost-sharing mitigation whereby the mines sprayed a dust-control membrane on the rail cars at the mine and because, after a few hundred miles, the coal settled and dust reappeared, the railroad applied a second coat of the membrane about halfway to the ports.
In the United States, the mines and railroads blamed each other for the dust and it has gone to the lawyers to resolve. That's an American response to problem solving if there ever was one.
I am a retired railroad civil engineer and am watching these developments, hoping for a balance between economic growth and environmental preservation.

The best music venues in London: Ronnie Scott's
The city's 20 best places to see live music, as voted by you – get the latest gig listings and buy tickets
Ronnie Scott's
Opened by British saxophonist Ronnie Scott in 1959, Ronnie's has since amassed as much history as the British Museum. The Soho institution was the first UK club to host American jazz musicians such as Zoot Sims and Lee Konitz. Upstairs is where Sonny Rollins recorded the soundtrack to 'Alfie' over the course of a weekend's small hours when the club was shut. It was the scene of Jimi Hendrix's last ever UK performance. And an especially jammy collective of Tom Waits fans will still boast about their up-close view of the cantankerous legend back in the day.
It continues to book jazz's biggest names, from trad talents such as Chick Corea to hotly tipped purists like Kurt Elling to futuristic mavericks like Robert Glasper.Read more
Ronnies - The place where I have seen some of the best and worst music in town. To be fair, its probably just my taste that tips the scales in either direction. One insanely good night was seeing a guy they call "The Voice". Terry Reid (or was it Reed) - anyway he was very nearly part of Led Zeppelin and when he played Ronnies he nearly shook the whole town. Van Morrison played the same week and was good but did not even come close. On the downside I went in one night for a late beer and saw someone doing things on an acoustic double bass that made ten minutes seem like two hours.
So my advice is check out who is on before you pay to go in.
Once inside the little Musos Bar downstairs is well worth a visit.
The main room is a sixties throwback with tables and chairs.
The Club upstairs is good. I don't know if its open to all. I am not even sure how I got in.
One thing I do know about Ronnies is that it is an institution that I hope survives.
I think those acoustic bass players have the right to stretch out time , and I saw people in the room loving it.
Strange !

I like our first round draft picks. I was a little suprised and still a little confused on why we moved up a slot ahead of Miami who had/has no interest in taking an OT and giving up a 4th rd pick to do so, but I think Baalke and company had some info that another team was looking to move up for Anthony Davis and obviously Denver was looking to move down. I hate to lose a 4th rd pick but if the 49ers think Anthony Davis can be as good as some do and they think he is their future starting LT, the move was well worth it. At 17, I was hoping we could move down and get a 3rd rd pick or I was hoping we would take Kyle Wilson, Maurkice Pouncey or Mike Iupati. Obviously we took Iupati who the Steelers were going to take at 18. So basically we just added some serious talent and 660pds to our offensive and I think our left side is set for the next 6-10 years. We know offensive line has been a weakness on this team for a while now and we needed to fix it and getting Mike Solari as O-Line coach and Ray Brown was a nice start and now we got some real talent on the offensive line. I think Staley will eventually move back to RT and Iupati will replace Baas at LG, giving us a big, talented left side with Davis and Iupati. My only question is how much will Davis and Iupati help us as rookies? Does Davis start of at RT? Are they going to have Iupati compete with Baas for the starting LG job? I think we will get some answers later tonight, tomorrow and after the draft. Okay, let's break down our two first round picks...
Anthony Davis: A BIG TIME Talent! I said it before, Anthony Davis is the most talented offensive tackle in a very talented offensive tackle class. He was the top rated offensive lineman coming out of High School and was recruited by everyone, USC, Ohio State, Florida, Miami, they all wanted him very badly but he was the first big time recruit coming out of New Jersey who stayed in state and signed with Rutgers. Came in as an 18 year old true freshman and started the last 8 games at right guard. Started 12 games at left tackle as a true sophomore in 2008 and another 12 at LT in 2009. Now he did report overweight every season at Rutgers starting with his freshmen season and was suspended for a game last year for being late to a team meeting. He was also overweight for the combine, so yes he has some flaws but he is only 20yrs old and he really does not have many weaknesses in his game. Go watch the game vs Pitt this past year; He dominated Pittsburgh DE Greg Romeus who is projected as a top 5 pick for the 2011 draft. He handled both George Selvie and Jason Pierre-Paul when USF played Rutgers. This kid when he is focused, he is a big time player. He was projected as a top 2-4 pick next year had he came back for his Senior season at Rutgers. At 6'5" 323pds he is obviously a big kid but he also has a wide frame with long arms. He can just slide and mirror defensive ends. He has good feet, esspecially for someone his size. I trust Singletary will keep this kid motivated and in shape and with Solari coaching him up along with Ray Brown, I think he is in good hands in San Francisco. I think he can come right in and compete for starting RT job and in 2011 and beyond I think he will be a big time NFL offensive tackle.
Mike Iupati: A big, nasty, physical 6'5" 332pd Samoan who helped make Idaho a relevant football program for the first time in a long time. Still a little raw as I believe he did not start playing football until the 8th grade. Started 33 games the last three seasons at Idaho and was team captain the last season. Can be flat out dominating in the running game. He just bowls over defenders with his size, power and massive hands. Could use work in pass protection and tends to do a lot of holding and his footwork can be sloppy but all that is coachable. He struggled in the Senior Bowl game but in the practices he was really solid, at times dominating. Really got the better of Penn State DT Jared Odrick in one on one drills. Still learning to play football and has a huge upside. I do think he can be a factor as a run blocker as a rookie and eventually turning into a very good all-around guard. The type of player you can run behind when you need a yard, someone we don't have.
I feel a lot better about our offensive line with Anthony Davis and Mike Iupati as 49ers. Potentially our left side could be as good as any in the NFL. The only question is where and how much will they play as rookies?

These students were recognized for their academic achievements for the third grading period at Spencer County Elementary School:
From over 400 entrees, kindergarten through 12th grade, only 20 were awarded prizes. Brittany Wiseman won first place in the 9th to 12th grade division, with Denham winning second place. Both students are sophomores in Brooke Mattingly's (right) art class at Spencer County High School.
The Spencer County Bears suffered their first defeat of the season with a 7-2 loss to visiting Fairdale last Tuesday evening.
The Bulldogs jumped out to a 4-0 lead, scoring twice in each of the first two innings, before adding another run later to take a 5-0 lead into the fifth inning. That's when Spencer County tried to rally.
A walk-off homerun by Freshman Emily Cole lifted the Spencer County Bears to a thrilling 3-2 victory over Oldham County on Wednesday. The Lady Colonels were ranked 29th in the Kentucky coaches poll, one of several ranked teams on the Lady Bears schedule.
Spencer County got off to an early lead when Kendall Horn singled and was joined on the base paths by Elisabeth Huckleberry in the first inning. Both scored on a single by Alyssa Howie to take a 2-0 lead.
Blake Lambdin, second from right, a senior at Spencer County High School, signed to play baseball with Asbury University recently. Lambdin will pursue a degree in Physical Therapy at the school. He is pictured with his parents, at left, Doug and Tracy Lambdin, sister Lauren, and back row, SCHS Baseball Coach Thad Kingsolver, and Asbury Coach Manny Cervantes.
Riley McClain, center, a senior at SCHS, recently signed to run track for St. Catherine College. He is pictured with St. Catherine Track Coach Blake Jones, left, and his grandparents, Denise and Tally Tomes.
Sporting News columnist Mike DeCourcy always believed that Tyler Ulis would be a successful college basketball player and was one of the few who did not question why Kentucky coach John Calipari signed the 5-9 point guard out of Chicago two years ago.
However, even DeCourcy didn't expect Ulis to become Southeastern Conference Player of the Year, SEC Defensive Player of the Year and consensus All-American in his second season at UK and a likely first-round draft pick in June.
When I was a teenager, I went on a canoeing trip with a church youth group. For some reason the youth leader trusted my friend James and me to be the first ones down the river. He must have thought we were pretty responsible because he placed his young son in the canoe with us.
I don't know if we were responsible or not, but we sure weren't experienced.
Celebrate Recovery at two churches

NA meetings
As an amateur wordsmith, I am fascinated with words and phrases. I love my cell phone because I have a dictionary and thesaurus all ready for my personal touch and I can research any word or phrase I hear.
You can tell a lot about a person by the words and phrases they use. Of course, most use words and phrases they have no idea what they mean. Perhaps they heard somebody else say these words or phrases and so they incorporated them into their vocabulary, which, says more about them than anything else.

ALOR SETAR: The Sultan of Kedah Tuanku Abdul Halim Mu'adzam Shah said Sunday that the word "Allah" is exclusive to Muslims.
In his birthday speech, read by Kedah Council of Regency chairman Tan Sri Tunku Annuar Sultan Badlishah, he said non-Muslims must respect this right and were banned from using the word.
He said any confusion or controversy, in regards to the word, could be avoided if the court's judgement is respected.
On Oct 14, the Court of Appeal banned the Catholic Church from using the word "Allah" in the Bahasa Malaysia section of its weekly newspaper, The Herald.
In Selangor, the Sultan decreed that the word is exclusively for Muslims, affirming the law already contained within the Non-Islamic Religions (Control of Propagation Amongst Muslims) Enactment 1988 of Selangor.
Section 9 of the Selangor Enactment, prohibits any non-Muslim to use in writing or speech any of 25 words or any of their derivatives and variations, as stated in Part 1 of the Schedule, pertaining to a non-Islamic religion.
The 25 words are Allah, Firman Allah, Ulama, Hadith, Ibadah, Kaabah, Kadi, Ilahi, Wahyu, Mubaligh, Syariah, Qiblat, Haj, Mufti, Rasul, Iman, Dakwah, Injil, Salat, Khalifah, Wali, Fatwa, Imam, Nabi and Sheikh.
Similar enactments with almost identical provisions exist in 10 states.

Please supply the correct answer.
The child neurology clinical training at Cincinnati Children's includes 24 months of rotations in child neurology service areas. One year is spent in required rotation areas, and the remaining time is spent in elective areas. Learn more about the individual service areas.
These rotations occur throughout the three-year training program. Cincinnati Children's has a dedicated neuroscience inpatient floor with a nursing staff that specializes in managing neurological and neurosurgical problems. The child neurology resident supervises the pediatric resident inpatient team and is exposed to a variety of experiences related to general neurology, epilepsy and headache. Call is from home.
Consult rotations occur throughout the three-year training program. Consults occur throughout the hospital on general and specialty medical, surgical and intensive care units. This provides residents with opportunities to gain broad clinical experience. The resident conducts rounds on active consults and presents new consults to an attending child neurologist. The consult resident also takes part in educating and mentoring medical students. Call, shared with the inpatient resident, is from home.
These rotations are an important part of first-year residency and continue for all three years of the program. The goal of the outpatient rotation is to expose residents to a wide variety of neurological conditions as they are most commonly seen in practice – in clinic. This training includes neurology clinics in epilepsies, headache, neuromuscular disorders, movement disorders, neonatal disorders, concussion, metabolic disorders, neuro-oncology and tuberous sclerosis. This rotation is designed to help residents identify possible areas of specialization. In the final year of training, residents may elect to spend more time in outpatient clinical areas, based on their interests.
This one-month rotation in the Epilepsy Service at Cincinnati Children's provides exposure to intractable epilepsies, pseudoseizures and other epilepsies and paroxysmal disorders. Educational opportunities include experience with long-term EEG monitoring, EEG reading, epilepsy surgical planning, epilepsy surgery and sophisticated neuroimaging techniques such as FMRI, PET, SPECT and MEG scans.
These rotations occur throughout the three-year training program. Required "electives" in this rotation include training in electrophysiology / EEG, psychiatry, neuropathology and neuroradiology. Other optional electives include study of specific epilepsy programs, headache, neuromuscular disease, movement disorders, tuberous sclerosis, neurosurgery, neuropharmacology, neurogenetics, neonatal neurology, metabolic diseases, learning disabilities, multiple sclerosis / inflammatory diseases, neuro-oncology, neuropsychology, palliative care and rotations abroad or at other institutions.
During all rotations, residents care for their own patients in the weekly outpatient continuity clinic, supervised by an experienced senior faculty member. Continuity clinic includes a broad range of neurological conditions.
Clinical child neurologists need to understand studies of epidemiology, diagnostic tests and new treatments. An academic child neurologist needs time during training to develop a research focus and research skills. For both, a first-hand research experience is extremely valuable.
Throughout training, Cincinnati Children's provides a structured framework for designing and performing research, including dedicated noon research conferences and support from a PhD statistician. This provides an opportunity to train in research methodology, as well as complete and present a mentored protocol in clinical or basic research.
Each resident has a primary research mentor and planned elective research rotations. Residents have monthly journal club sessions, and also present ideas, methods and results at divisional research and scientific review meetings. This allows for constructive input from clinical and basic researchers into resident projects. Our residents regularly present research at national and international scientific and medical conferences.

Students can have financial aid (grants, loans, scholarships) applied toward their bill. If the financial aid is more than the bill, the student will receive check(s) for the balance.
If financial aid is not sufficient to pay the college bill, the student must pay the balance by
- Cash, check or money order
- Charge Card (Visa, Mastercard or Discover.)
- Debit Card
- Automatic Payment Plan
- (Note: The automatic payment plan is only available for payment of Fall and Spring semester tuition.)
- Alternative Loans
- Outside Resources (VESID, INVEST, GI Bill, National Guard Tuition Plan, etc.)
