A 7-month-old East Lyme company has been chosen as one of the state's first legal medical-marijuana dispensaries, the state Department of Consumer Protection said Thursday.
Thames Valley Apothecary LLC, whose principal is listed as Laurie A. Zrenda of East Lyme, plans to open by this summer a dispensary — one of six in the state — at the Center 32 plaza at 1100 Norwich-New London Turnpike in Uncasville. The facility will serve seriously ill patients who are certified as eligible by a physician and have registered with the state's Medical Marijuana Program.
Zrenda, a licensed pharmacist for the past 27 years, said she is planning to operate the dispensary with her pharmacist niece, Meredith Elmer. Zrenda is the girls' varsity tennis coach at East Lyme High School and works at Rite Aid in Uncasville.
"With the selection of dispensary facilities, all necessary pieces of the medical marijuana program are in place," said Consumer Protection Commissioner William M. Rubenstein in a statement. "The dispensary facilities will be the public face of Connecticut's medical marijuana program, and therefore, careful thought and deliberation went into selection of the most qualified applicants."
Montville First Selectman Ronald McDaniel said Zrenda approached the town several months ago to determine whether it had any zoning prohibitions that would disallow the dispensary. Zrenda said she has been renting a space in town since October in hopes of securing a dispensary license.
"It's an interesting opportunity for the town," McDaniel said in a phone interview. "If there's going to be a site, I'm glad it's going to be here."
McDaniel pointed out that the 1,200-square-foot Montville facility would be the only one east of the Connecticut River. But he also said he didn't expect a ton of traffic in and out of town because, at latest count, there were only about 100 registered medical-marijuana users in New London County.
"I don't see any major public safety issues," he said.
Zrenda said she looked at several communities, including Norwich, New London and Waterford, before settling on the Uncasville location. She called it a discreet location but easy to find, and said she heard that another company had found a dispensary location in Groton but didn't win state approval.
"It was a long hard road," Zrenda said of the approval process.
The dispensary initially will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, she said. Zrenda was unsure about pricing policies, but said marijuana in a variety of forms will likely be offered, and the building is being renovated with security uppermost in mind.
A monitoring program centralized in Hartford will prevent anyone from shopping around to get marijuana at more than one dispensary, she added.
"Doctors are the gatekeepers," Zrenda said.
The state previously had announced medical-marijuana production facilities would be located in West Haven, Portland, Simsbury and Watertown. A proposal submitted by two companies to produce medical cannabis at the Norwich business park failed to win approval.
The dispensaries, as with the production facilities, went through a competitive screening process, with a total of 27 considered. Dispensaries, required because medical marijuana has not been legalized on the federal level and therefore can't be issued to patients through traditional pharmacies, will be granted licenses upon payment of a $5,000 fee and completion of all documentation within the next month.
Other companies receiving approval as dispensaries were Arrow Alternative Care Inc. of Hartford, Bluepoint Apothecary LLC of Branford, D&B Wellness LLC of Bridgeport, Prime Wellness of Connecticut LLC of South Windsor and The Healing Corner Inc. of Bristol.
"All are expected to be ready to open and serve patients by the time marijuana products are available from licensed producers sometime this summer," the Consumer Protection department said in a release.
Despite the state's approval of dispensaries and producers, medical marijuana is not covered by any insurance plan. The maximum monthly amount of marijuana that can be dispensed, according to a state website, is 2.5 ounces.

Two questions from a new cyclist: I just bought my first bike... a Del Sol LXi 7.1 and am looking for some input on a couple of things.
1) I am searching for a bike rack of some sort. I have a Toyota Rav4 (2009) with the covered spare tire on the back. It does have the roof rack bars that run front to rear. It is only a 4 cylinder so we do not have a hitch of any type on the back either. I need a rack that will hold at least one bike (adult) and a kid bike. If I can find one that will hold 3 bikes, even better. (I am trying to convince my husband to get a new bike now too!) Ideally it will need to make road trips (300 miles +) to grandma's house etc.
2) A friend is giving me her child seat to attach to the back of my bike. I am not sure if it will fit and I am not sure how comfortable I am with a 30lber riding on the back either. I was looking at trailers to pull behind the bike but have no idea what brands would work best and last etc. I have a 4 yr old (36 lbs) and a 1 yr old (30 lbs) ... I would like to be able to pull both of them on long rides but also be able to pull just the little one when big brother is on his own bike. It does not need to double as a stroller... I already have a double jogging stroller that we use regularly as well.
I did hit the local bike shop to see what they offer. I have found Yakima bike racks for 30% off at Sun&Ski Sports (clearance since they will no longer carry that brand once they sell out). I also have seen some cheaper racks at big box stores but not sure how well they hold up for long distances etc.
Thoughts? Advice?

Solution of a functional equation
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: The problem of determining all utility measures over binary gambles that are both separable and additive leads to the functional equation
The following conditions are more or less natural to the problem: strictly increasing, strictly decreasing; both map their domains onto intervals ( onto a , onto ); thus both are continuous, , , , , . We determine, however, the general solution without any of these conditions (except , , both into). If we exclude two trivial solutions, then we get as general solution (, ; for ), which satisfies all the above conditions. The paper concludes with a remark on the case where the equation is satisfied only almost everywhere.

Kyle Singler
Age: 23
Position: Forward
Height/Weight: 6-8, 230
College: Duke
Noteworthy: Was the Final Four's Most Outstanding Player after the Blue Devils won the national title in 2010. He also was a four-year starter at Duke, averaging 16.2 points per game for his career, which ranks fourth on the program's all-time scoring ledger. Singler also shot .399 from 3-point distance as a junior.
Draft projection: NBA Draft Express currently has Singler as the No. 24 overall pick. His 3-point shooting percentage dipped 0.78 points from his junior to senior year, and while he is fundamentally sound and considered ready to make an immediate impact, he lacks athleticism compared to his potential NBA peers.
Jeremy Tyler
Age: 19
Position: Forward/Center
Height/Weight: 6-10, 260
Team: Tokyo Apache
Noteworthy: Tyler skipped his senior year of high school to play professional basketball in Israel, then went to Japan a year later. He averaged 9.9 points and 6.4 rebounds for Tokyo Apache last year, and 2.1 points and 1.9 rebounds in the Israeli League the season before. Tyler said he does not regret the unconventional path he has taken to the NBA, and has been eyeing June 23 for two years now. He also had a documentary crew following him since his sophomore year of high school.
Draft projection: Draft Express has Tyler going as the seventh pick in the second round, although there isn't much consensus on when he might be taken. His athleticism is among the best in the draft, but still has skills in need of refinement.
Nikola Vucevic
Age: 20
Position: Forward
Height/Weight: 6-10, 240
College: USC
Noteworthy: Vucevic averaged 17.1 points per game in his third and final years with the Trojans, grabbing 10.3 points per game while shooting .505 from the field. Was named to the All Pac-10 First Team and represented Montenegro at the 2009 U-20 European championships.
Draft projection: Draft Express has Vucevic going as the No. 23 overall pick. Though not extremely athletic, the big man has gained significant muscle weight over the past few years while refining his jump shot to the point that he is a legitimate outside threat.
Jon Leuer
Age: 22
Position: Forward
Height/Weight: 6-10, 228
College: Wisconsin
Noteworthy: Averaged 18.3 points per game his senior year with the Badgers while grabbing 7.2 rebounds and shooting 47 percent from the field. Was a first-team All-Big Ten selection as a senior as well as an honorable mention AP All-American.
Draft projection: Draft Express has Leuer going as the 17th pick in the second round, and lists his as the ninth-best forward in the draft.

Tiger's Golf Course Also Tries Comeback
Tiger Woods got some good real estate news this week. Progress has been slow at The Cliffs in western North Carolina, his lone U.S. golf course project, where just one house has been completed and seven more are under construction since the project was announced in 2007. But developers of The Cliffs, who own eight golf communities in the region, raised $63 million from 500 members in a private placement that will ensure completion of the Woods course, set to open in 2012. In a statement, Mr. Woods lauded the commitment by the Cliffs members, while Jim Anthony, CEO of The Cliffs, argues the financing proved the continued strength of the Tiger Woods brand, despite the loss of multiple blue-chip sponsors since the sex scandal broke.

Adios, Lorena: Done at 28
Announcing her retirement to the media on Friday, at 28, women's world No. 1 Lorena Ochoa used the word "happy" 14 times. "I've never been this happy," she said. "Once you reach your goals, it's really hard to find that motivation." The LPGA will miss Ms. Ochoa's star appeal. But she said she will continue to play in the LPGA's two Mexican events and perhaps a few majors down the road.
—John Paul Newport
Kenny Perry is Getting in Shape
Kenny Perry, one of the PGA Tour's long hitters even at 49, has finally hired a trainer. "Well, it was just last week, so we'll see how it goes," he said on Tuesday. Perry said he's lost 10 to 20 yards on his drives and acknowledged playing "poorly" this year after two wins and a Masters playoff loss in 2009. One reason is his mom's death in October and his dad's poor health. "I've kind of pushed my golf aside a little bit, and it's shown," he said.
Corrections & Amplifications:
Golfer Lorena Ochoa played on the LPGA Tour. A previous version of the item above about her retirement incorrectly implied in one reference that she played on the PGA Tour.

The latter part of this column ran a couple of years ago but I dusted it off because of the many recent calls from readers who have been targeted for scams. Whether through phone calls, letters or emails, the attempts try to rob of us our money or gather private information that can be used to steal our identity or hurt us financially.
On Jan. 11, District 74 State Rep. Lloyd Arnold authored House Bill 1228, which "allows the state seed commissioner to implement laws concerning industrial hemp."
This could be a big step forward for Indiana, putting it in the same territory as Kentucky with regard to industrial and agricultural hemp legalization. Hemp is the cousin of the marijuana plant, though genetically different and containing only trace amounts of the psychoactive substance, THC.

Center on Congress
There have been encouraging signs that the Republican leadership on Capitol Hill wants to make Congress function again. They've talked about using conference committees more, allowing a more open process for rank-and-file members, enacting separate appropriation bills rather than using omnibus bills, and letting committees lead on legislation rather than hoarding all power in the leadership offices.

I suspect most of you have no idea about the person and the saintly episode that is commemorated each Feb. 14, by friends, family and most importantly, lovers. In fact, there are several versions of how the most romantic saint became a commercial success.
One story about St. Valentine has its origins in third century Rome where the Emperor Claudius II outlawed marriage for young single men because he valued them more as young warriors.
With no opposition, a measure that is supposed to undermine methamphetamine cooks passed the Indiana House of Representatives' Public Health Committee Wednesday.
But because of earlier opposition by outside interests, the bill has been so watered down that it's likely eventual passing by the full General Assembly will do little or nothing to combat our state's serious methamphetamine problem.

In early 1970, the Ministry of Defence began publication of a four-page card to be issued to every soldier serving in Northern Ireland. It was printed on yellow paper, marked "Restricted"—the lowest security classification—and carried a long and occasionally confusing list of instructions about when a soldier may or may not open fire on a civilian in the province. It began with sensible enough advice. "Never use more force than the minimum necessary to enable you to carry out your duties, " was one of the general rules. If a soldier had to open fire, the card said, "fire only aimed shots." But a warning should be given before opening fire, "preferably by loud hailer." If a guard is approached by a stranger who is behaving suspiciously, the card went on, the soldier is at the second challenge to apply the safety catch of his weapon and shout: "Stand still I am ready to fire." But soldiers could fire without warning in certain circumstances: when hostile firing was taking place, where delay could lead to serious injury (but then only if the person had a firearm), or at a vehicle if the occupants were opening fire.
The disclosure that such a document existed created a predictable burst of anger from the Ministry of Defence at the time. 1The Guardian reporter responsible for breaking the story was virtually sent to Coventry by the army in Northern Ireland, and complaints were made to his editor about his lack of "responsibility." But then something very strange emerged from the government—an admission that while the card's instructions had been drawn up by civil servants at the Ministry of Defence, a soldier who obeyed them to the letter could still find himself in court charged with manslaughter. In other words, this carefully worded document had no legal standing. Nothing could have more dramatically illustrated the quasi-legal functions (as opposed to the legal role) of the army in Northern Ireland nor the vagueness with which these functions were conceived.
A glance at James Callaghan's memory of the first British military involvement in Belfast during the current war 2 is enough to illustrate the speed with which the military authorities were, quite unprepared, plunged into the latest Irish conflict. When the first troops entered Derry in August of 1969—they belonged to the Prince of Wales's Own—they crossed the Craigavon Bridge with bayonets fixed to their self-loading rifles. Officers at that time thought that their presence would be a very temporary one and for two years afterward their superiors announced (at least to the press) that

United States Institute of Peace: Afghanistan and Its Neighbors: An Ever Dangerous Neighborhood
Report states that predatory neighbours have been a fact of life for the Afghan state throughout most of its history. The region's opportunistic states are liable to revive their interventions in Afghanistan in the event of a faltering Kabul government or an international community that reneges on its commitments to help secure and rebuild the country. Already there are some indications that the forbearance shown by neighbors in recent years may be flagging.

Whether you have a green thumb or not, consider signing up for Master Gardener classes. The Purdue Extension Johnson County office will conduct classes each Tuesday evening Aug. 20 to Nov. 5. The program provides a learning framework for you to increase your knowledge on a variety of horticultural topics, such as lawn care, soil science, ornamentals, vegetables, pesticides and more.
After completing Master Gardener training, you can volunteer your service in educational gardening activities in the community to "help others grow." With increased gardening knowledge, Master Gardeners have the skills and confidence to teach others, either one-on-one or in a group setting.
Typically, Master Gardeners volunteer time at schools, parks, churches, public gardens, libraries and other veneus. You can sign up for our 2013 fall classes by contacting the Purdue Extension Johnson County office (484 N. Morton St. in Franklin; 736-3724). The cost per participant is $125, which includes all class-related materials.
Once you get into the world of plant science, it seems that the more you learn, the more questions you have. Recently, invasive plants have come into the spotlight. You might want to look through the Southern Indiana Cooperative Invasives Management website (www.sicim.info). I will add to the mix with some educational information from Purdue's Extension Forester, Ron Rathfon, and the former project director, Eric Eubank.
Poison hemlock is a plant in Johnson County that is considered invasive. It is a member of the parsley family. You wouldn't want this garnishing your dinner plate, though; as the name implies, it is poisonous to both animals and humans. Use caution (protective clothing and eyewear) if you touch this plant.
To identify poison hemlock, look for stout stems with purple spotting. This plant can be 10 feet tall in its second year. The flowers seen in summer are small and white (clusters like that found with Queen Anne's lace). Seeds mature in August and September and are easily spread via mowing and with agriculture equipment. To effectively control the spread of this plant, seed production must be prevented. Also, it is managed by preventing the spread of existing seeds.
Avoid walking or driving through infested areas. Clean ATVs, clothing and shoes following activity in infested areas. Herbicides can be sprayed effectively to control large infestations and for spot applications. The chemical should be applied while the plant is in an active growing stage, before flowering. Follow-up treatments are required. Always follow label directions when using herbicides. Tilling can kill poison hemlock and prevent seed production, but generally is not recommended because of soil disturbance.
Be mindful that there are other plants that look comparable to poison hemlock, such as giant hogweed. The Indiana Department of Natural Resources closely monitors giant hogweed, but it is fairly rare in Indiana.
Giant hogweed can reach heights of 10 to 15 feet, while poison hemlock is generally 5 to 8 feet tall. The leaves of giant hogweed have deep, broad lobes and can reach widths of up to 5 feet. The leaves of poison hemlock are much smaller and resemble wild carrot.
Sarah Speedy is the agricultural natural resources extension educator through the Johnson County Purdue Extension. She has a master's degree in animals and public policy from Tufts University, Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine and a bachelor's degree in animal science from Purdue University.

Ontario-based Research in Motion, Ltd. (TSE:RIM) circa 2006-2007 appeared
unstoppable. The company was beloved by businesses worldwide and was growing fast in market share and
sales. Even Democratic Presidential hopeful Sen. Barrack Obama was deeply attached to his
BlackBerry smartphone.
I. Should RIM Sell Itself?
Fast-forward five years and that vibrant company is an increasingly distant
memory. In its place is a company with a slow pace of releases, dated
hardware (the Blackberry 9860, to launch in October,
will be BlackBerry's first and only smartphone this fall to compete with Apple,
Inc.'s (AAPL) iPhone and Google Inc.'s (GOOG) Android hardware-wise). Unsurprisingly sales growth has slumped both in the U.S. and
abroad. Correspondingly, the company's stock has taken a beating at the
Toronto Stock Exchange.
Investors, desperate to see a turnaround, have implored RIM to explore a pair
of options.
The latest effort suggests that RIM sell its rich catalog of intellectual
property -- or perhaps sell its entire business to the highest bidder.
Investors salivated at Google's recent purchase of
Motorola Mobility, which brought a handsome return for shareholders. A RIM
sale would help investors recoup their losses and perhaps even profit.
Google and others are thought to be potential buyers.
The proposal is being spearheaded by Jaguar Financial Corp. (TSE:JFC). JFC refuses to
reveal the size of its stake in RIM, but it says it represents a coalition of
various shareholders who together hold a bit under 5 percent of the company's
stock (RIM has a market cap of $16.45B USD at present, so this works out to
roughly $822M USD in stock).
II. Second Proposal Suggests Shakeup in Top Executive Positions
JFC CEO Vic Alboini also expressed dismay at the company's lackluster response
to a second independent proposal.
The Northwest & Ethical Investments LP in June said that RIM's Jim
Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis's decision to split Chairman and CEO duties was
adversely affecting the company. They suggested the company assign one
executive to each post.
RIM agreed to examine the proposal, but said they probably wouldn't get around
to announcing their thoughts until January 2012. Mr. Alboini called that
slow response "woefully inadequate" and "an extreme example
that management has not let go."
III. If QNX Bid Fails Will RIM Become Nortel 2.0?
Mr. Alboini is also pessimistic about RIM's last-ditch turnaround effort with
its new QNX operating system. The new operating system, which debuted on
the company's PlayBook tablet, is scheduled to roll out to the company's
smartphones next year, replacing the veteran BlackBerry operating system.
Thus far, however, QNX has drawn mixed reviews, with many saying the best
thing about it is the ability to play (some) Android apps on it. However,
many fear that Google may close that route as more RIM devices adopt QNX.
While Mr. Alboini admits that it could have a positive impact, he says the cost
of failure is to great to gamble by counting on such a success. He
remarks in a Bloomberg interview, "The board should be
saying, 'What if these products don't pan out?' You don't want RIM to turn into
another Nortel."
Nortel Networks, like RIM, used to be a highly prized Canadian mobile services
firm. But stagnation bred an eventual
bankruptcy and fire sale of the
company's intellectual property in a bid by shareholders to recoup part of
their losses.
Mr. Alboini fears RIM could eventually meet a similar fate and says the time to
act is now. And he's not alone. In a highly publicized letter, a
departing executive lashed out at the
company's leadership for failing to respond to the changing market. He
remarked, "I have lost confidence. While I hide it at work, my passion has
been sapped. I know I am not alone..."
RIM categorically rejected the criticism, insisting it was doing just fine.
quote: What do you guys think?
quote: Actually you arrogant self deluded prick, most people in the world would prefer fresh water and enough food not to starve.
quote: put out phones that are comparable to other manufacturers offerings from 2-3 years ago
quote: Honda just released a car exactly equal to a 2008 Ford Focus. Is that really a good thing?
quote: RIM just now caught up with what the rest of the industry was doing 3 years ago. Congrats on a great effort
quote: Are you trying to infer that RIM's offerings arent playing "catch up" with the rest of the industry?
quote: Is there ANYTHING RIM can do wrong in your eyes
quote: You tend to ignore any postitive points about a competing product, and ignore any negative points about RIM
quote: What do they have to do with this?
quote: I see them continuing to lose marketshare
quote: You cannot deny the stock chart below
quote: Come out with something that makes them stand out
quote: As of now the Android/Apple dominance isnt going away unless once of those 2 things happen
quote: If RIM fails to do one or the other within a few years, we will be looking at them selling off the company to a larger buyer, or just going bankrupt. They cannot continue like they are now.
quote: No-one buys a phone for the chat service
quote: NOT a good thing
quote: RIM's decline
quote: the stock market is a troll
quote: you jump in with your spin trying to convince the world that RIM does not suck
quote: Hypothetical scenario. Honda motors comes out with a car that has all the features, specs and price of a 3 year old Ford of the same class/market...
quote: and the expense of Blackberry that is rapidly declining
quote: You don't see people talking about the "good" stuff about Blackberry because I don't think most of us care about the new OS or hardware.
quote: They haven't done nearly enough to change that image (hard to say if they even tried).
quote: it's useless without having a RIM mobile
quote: You should actually try to use the product before bashing it.
quote: Playbook can do both, be Wi-Fi only and be bridged to a BB phone for 3G/4G access.
quote: But you don't call those iPads "as good as dead" even though Playbook beats them easily. Why?
quote: You always talk about "bridge" like it's a must-have feature, but what I'm trying to say is, why do you even need to "bridge" at all if the tablet can do most of the things.
quote: there are simply too many apps+games that are not available on Playbook
quote: Where do you get the sense that Playbook beats iPad? source please?
quote: Some website saying it is the must have tablet doesn't make it true
quote: Why do you give a crap what Jason Mick thinks?
quote: You elevate the products you buy
quote: Did you say that iPad was dead last year because he had no apps compared to iPhone or Android? No? Then why double standards and why treating Playbook so different? Is it because you are an Apple fanboy?
quote: ILoveCashback.com, the voucher and money saving site, has made the bold claim that the BlackBerry PlayBack has overtaken the iPad as the must-have tablet. It states that the Apple device has fallen behind the new kid on the block in terms of searches.
quote: But you don't call those iPads "as good as dead" even though Playbook beats them easily. Why?
quote: Because you must be a clueless troll like I suggested above. You have no experience using a product and you make obviously idiotic statements about it at the same time. Maybe its time for you to stop trolling and try to use the thing before bashing it?
quote: if you don't own or haven't used a product, what right do you have to say that it holds no value?
quote: However, you would have to agree with me that an Apple type turn around would be an unlikely, although not impossible, future
quote: you will find the result is the same
quote: Pressing the gas pedal is not a wise choice
quote: Even Democratic Presidential hopeful Sen. Barrack Obama
quote: Indeed, I like HP. But you won't see me fighting so valiantly to convince anyone that HP is on the road to a milk and honey adorned corporate nirvana

Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos cheered BMX riders Mariana Pajon and Carlos Mario for their respective gold and bronze medals.
20-year-old Pajon, nicknamed "Queen of the BMX", claimed Colombia's second ever Olympic gold.
Within seconds of her crossing the finish line, President Santos tweeted: "This achievement elevates the Colombian woman and we are proudly patriotic."
US President Barack Obama has also been following his national team closely. Earlier this week he took a break from politics to celebrate the Games in his weekly address on Youtube.
"I've got to admit, I was bit jealous she got to go," he said of First Lady Michelle Obama's trip to London. "But like many of you, I caught as many events as I could – jumping off the couch for a close race or a perfect vault."
Mayor of London Boris Johnson has been relentless in support of the Games and the athletes he's met.
He cheered on Jade Jone's "terrific show" in the Taekwondo, was "delighted" by "plucky" boxer Nicola Adams and "nearly yelled [him]self hoarse" watching Sir Chris Hoy in the velodrome – all gold medal-winning performances by British athletes.
Johnson also reinforced a contentious claim that table tennis originated in Victorian England under the name of "whiff-whaff". He posted a photo from the stands of the ExCeL venue, adding: "Whiff whaff comes home."

Oklahoma football: Quarterback Kendal Thompson announces that he's transferring
NORMAN — With Trevor Knight's Sugar Bowl MVP performance effectively ending the 2014 Oklahoma quarterback battle before it began, at least one Sooner signal caller has elected to transfer.
Kendal Thompson announced Tuesday evening via Twitter his intention to graduate in May and transfer to another college football program, theoretically leaving him two years of eligibility because of special NCAA graduate transfer rules.
"Enjoyed the 3 years that I spent at OU and appreciate all the support and love that this program has shown me," Thompson tweeted. "But I believe that God has another path in store for me."
An OU spokesman declined to comment on Thompson's announcement.
Thompson, the son of former OU quarterback Charles Thompson, appeared in two games as a Sooner, both of which came during his just-completed redshirt sophomore season.
He competed with Knight and Blake Bell to become Oklahoma's starting quarterback last spring, but suffered a foot injury on the first day of fall camp. Knight initially won the job, but Bell took over after two games.
Bell started eight games, looking brilliant at times and struggling at others, leading many — Charles Thompson included — to publicly lobby for Kendal to get an opportunity.
When Bell left the Sooners' Nov. 16 home win over Iowa State with an early concussion, Knight took over the offense and led OU to a convincing victory. The Sooners led 41-10 with 6:42 remaining in the game when Thompson finally made his much-anticipated OU debut.
He completed a 44-yard pass to Lacoltan Bester, and four plays later, threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Aaron Ripkowski.
Knight started the Sooners' season finale at Oklahoma State a few weeks later, but left with a shoulder injury late in the first half. Thompson replaced him to start the third quarter, but threw an ugly interception on the very first play from scrimmage.
He played most of the quarter before OU coaches turned to Bell, who led the Sooners on a game-winning touchdown drive with just over a minute remaining on the clock.
OU coach Bob Stoops declined to name a starting quarterback in the month leading up to the Sugar Bowl against Alabama, but ultimately went with Knight, who threw for 348 yards and four touchdown passes in the Sooners' stunning 45-31 victory.
Thompson's announcement also ends his father's dream of watching his son quarterback the Sooners.
Charles Thompson seemed destined for stardom at Oklahoma before his February 1989 drug arrest, which landed him on the cover of Sports Illustrated in an orange jumpsuit and handcuffs.
The symbolic photograph came to represent all the perceived problems with Oklahoma football and ultimately led to legendary coach Barry Switzer's resignation four months later.
Charles Thompson spent 17 months in federal prison and wasn't embraced again within the OU football program until after Stoops' hiring in 1999.
Kendal Thompson became a high-school star at Southmoore, and committed to the Sooners in November 2009.
"I think one of the things that inspires him is the opportunity to finish something that I started," Charles Thompson said last April.
As of right now, the Sooners return Knight, Bell and redshirt freshman Cody Thomas as their quarterbacks, and add 2014 signee Justice Hansen, the Edmond Santa Fe product who has enrolled early to participate in spring practices.
Bell may opt to graduate and transfer as well, although Stoops has implied that if he stays for his senior season, he could have an opportunity to play tight end.
Former Texas Tech quarterback Baker Mayfield has also enrolled at OU and intends to walk-on to the football program. Mayfield, who was a true freshman at Tech in 2013, lost his appeal to the NCAA for immediate eligibility at OU, though, and Stoops has said several times that his staff isn't interested in adding any transfer quarterbacks.

Reviews & Ratings
Awful experience.
- The room was not ready at check in time, it took them 40 minutes to finish "cleaning" the room.
-There were clumps of hair in the room and stuck to the wall in the bathroom.
-Their wireless high speed internet was a complete joke. It had restricted bandwidth and I had to sit in their bar area to get a signal. The worst part was that my one note to the hotel when making the reservations was, I need WiFi.
-One of the women at the front desk had a terrible attitude and was rude to a few other couples. Where as the other woman was very nice.
-The cleaning people left the doors propped open while they were cleaning the rooms. We came back from the pool, our door was propped open and the cleaning people were no where to be found. We had 2 laptops in the room, are you kidding me?
-They cleaned our room once in 3 days, we finally had to ask them to clean our room the fourth day.
Stay somewhere else.

We had a very nice stay, the room was very clean and a very nice size. The bathroom was well stocked with plenty of towels. The staff was, by far, some of the best i have ever encountered. On the down side, there is no elevator, we were on the third floor and i would not do that again. The balcony was big enough to stand on, but not big enough for a chair. Although the pool area is beautiful, it is a shame, for an early riser as myself, that you can not sit out there until after 9am. Would have loved to sit there to have my coffee.

|that's where you'll find me
|Hi. I'm Lillie Rose and I make simple, textless graphics for using and sharing on Livejournal. My primary focus is icons. I do not make things like layouts, profile codes or mood themes as they are too time consuming and for a variety of reasons I do not take requests. When it comes to what I may icon, my fandoms and interests are extremely varied. I make creations from whatever sources inspire me at the time so be prepared for anything.
|Please credit lillie_rose if you use any of my graphics so other people will know where they can find them. I love to get comments so please leave a little message if you see anything you like; comments are very motivational and help a graphic maker to know what's popular and what isn't. Do not alter my graphics in any way. Textless graphics are not and will never be intended as bases. Unless otherwise stated, any images used in my journal are my own. You're welcome to friend this journal, if you like, but I can't promise I'll always friend back.

Alachua County Celebrates National Provider Appreciation Day
Published May 8th, 2009

Friday was National Provider Appreciation Day, recognizing the work of child care providers.
The Early Learning Coalition of Alachua County held a provider appreciation event Friday night at the Turkey Creek Golf and Country Club.
Gainesville child care provider Swan Latson said support from parents and the community makes her work even more rewarding.
"It's good to get the recognition as child care providers cause child care providers work very hard with children," said Latson. "It's not a job that anyone can step into, it has to come from your heart."

Skin lumps can be tricky. we stick them with a needle, suck up some cells, smear the sample on a slide and take a peek down a microscope, but sometimes we still can't make a diagnosis.

Human infants imitate others' actions 'rationally': they copy a demonstrator's action when that action is freely chosen, but less when it is forced by some constraint (Gergely, Bekkering & Király, 2002). We investigated whether enculturated chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) also imitate rationally. Using Gergely and colleagues' (2002) basic procedure, a human demonstrator operated each of six apparatuses using an unusual body part (he pressed it with his forehead or foot, or sat on it). In the Hands Free condition he used this unusual means even though his hands were free, suggesting a free choice. In the Hands Occupied condition he used the unusual means only because his hands were occupied, suggesting a constrained or forced choice. Like human infants, chimpanzees imitated the modeled action more often in the Hands Free than in the Hands Occupied condition. Enculturated chimpanzees thus have some understanding of the rationality of others' intentional actions, and use this understanding when imitating others.
