New Mexico's culture is rich with legends, most from old Spanish or Mexican roots. The most famous legend of the Southwest is that of La Llorona, which appears to be dominantly of southern New Mexico origin.
Encounter with La Llorona
A Socorro man and wife remember the summer of 1948 very well. It was July and the weather had become extremely hot. To escape the heat, they decided to camp a few days under the shade of the bosque along the Rio Grande with their neighbors. Two families, consisting of four adults and four children, camped along the river in a thick stand of cottonwood trees near Luis Lopez.
On the first day, they fished, swam the river and played a variety of games. By sundown, they had a large campfire burning and cooked hot dogs and a couple of catfish. It was a fun time for all. Later in the evening, the four children disappeared into the darkness of the bosque playing hide and seek amid the trees — with a stern warning from the parents to not go near the river.
As the adults sat around the campfire, they suddenly noticed it was deathly quiet. The giggles and screams of their playful children went silent. The two mothers immediately got up and began calling their children's names into the darkness. There was no answer. Again they yelled their names, and again there was no answer. The mothers began to panic, fearing the children had slipped into the river.
Just then, they heard the rustling of brush as the older boy ran towards the light of the campfire, yelling, "Momma, momma." Although out of breath, he explained to his parents there was a strange woman talking to them down by the river.
"What is she saying?," one of the mothers asked.
The young lad replied, "She keeps asking '¿Has visto a mis hijos?' (Have you seen my children?)."
"Oh my God — La Llorona," the two mothers screamed.
The parents ran toward the river to rescue their children. As they ran through the trees to the bank of the Rio Grande, they could see the silhouettes of the other three children. Only a few feet away stood a tall, thin woman wearing a long white gown that seemed to glow in the moonlight.
The children stood frozen as the woman repeatedly asked, "¿Donde estan mis hijos?" (Where are my children?).
The parents began to yell, "Jose, Maria, Alicia! Quickly! Come here."
The children obeyed and ran toward their parents.
The woman in the river began a bone-chilling scream, yelling, "No, no abandóneme. Por favor, vuelto a mí, mis hijos" (No, don't leave. Please, come back to me, my children).
The parents, and the children, were so frightened from the experience, they immediately abandoned their camp and sped back to their homes in Socorro.
These parents, and two of the children, still live in Socorro today, although they requested not to be identified. And for good reason. They had a close encounter with La Llorona.
This is the New Mexico legend of La Llorona (pronounced "Lah yoh-ROH-nah), a ghostly spirit woman who for centuries has been seen and heard roaming the Rio Grande, searching for her children.
To this day, the Socorro families that met her face-to-face that summer night in 1948, still consider themselves fortunate to have escaped with their lives.
The Legend
La Llorona is New Mexico's most famous legend, and the state's most famous ghost. It is centered along the Rio Grande south to Juarez, Mexico. There is scarcely a child in New Mexico that has not been told the story of La Llorona as a youngster.
Although there are many variations, the legend goes something like this:
In the early 1700s, there was a young woman named Maria living in Juarez, Mexico. As Maria blossomed into a young woman, her striking beauty attracted the charms of many local men. Coming from a poor family, her mother encouraged her to marry one of these dashing young men for a good life. However, Maria refused, stating her beauty would one day attract the charms of a very rich man.
Before long, the handsome young man of her dreams rode into town. He was the son of a well-known wealthy ranchero west of Juarez. He wore nice clothes and had a handsome, well groomed horse with a fancy saddle — all the signs of a man of wealth. Maria would follow him around, trying to catch his eye, but he seemed to only notice the young women who were fairly "well to do." At night, he would charm the local ladies with his guitar and golden voice, breaking Maria's heart.
One day, the young ranchero came into the tienda (store) where Maria was shopping. She blushed from embarrassment, as she was wearing an old, dirty, tattered dress. However, the blushing beauty suddenly caught the eye of the young ranchero. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
After a short courtship, the ranchero paid her father a large dowry and they were soon married, in spite of the objections of the ranchero's father. After all, it was frowned upon for a wealthy man to marry a woman from a lower class.
After their marriage, they moved to Mesilla, where it is said he worked his own ranch and worked as a merchant along El Camino Real. Others say he moved to Mesilla to avoid the scorn of his father for marrying a woman from such a poor family. Regardless, over the following years, Maria bore him three children.
As the years went by, Maria and her wealthy husband grew apart. He was often gone for months at a time on the ranch or shipping goods along the Camino Real. He had little interest in Maria or the children. Maria suspected he was frequenting the company of other women during his travels.
One day, Maria was walking along the street with her three children when her husband's buggy approached. Sitting close was another woman — a beautiful young woman. He passed her and the children, pretending not to notice them. Maria's heart was torn in two. Her anger exploded into a jealous rage.
If only she didn't have the children, she thought, then her husband would love her again.
In her rage, she dragged her three children to the Rio Grande and held their heads under the water until they were dead. Maria had committed the ultimate sin — deliberately killing her own children.
Returning home later that night, she explained to her husband what she had done to please him. He was horrified and ordered her out of his life. It is said Maria roamed the streets of Mesilla for many nights, calling and crying for her children, which earned her the name "La Llorona" — the wailing woman.
Realizing she had lost everything in life, she went down to the river and cried for her children one last time. When there was no answer, she drove a dagger deep into her chest, and fell dead into the Rio Grande.
The people of Mesilla, after finding her body, buried her in the town cemetery. It is said, even today, La Llorona can be seen roaming the cemetery and the river, crying for her children. It gives the Mesilla cemetery the reputation of being haunted.
Another version
Another popular version has the ranchero leaving Maria for a younger woman. In time, Maria killed her children when she could no longer support them, supposedly as a misdirected act of mercy. Other versions have Maria getting pregnant by a wealthy ranchero, who refused to marry her, and she killed the child at birth to hide the sin. And yet other versions, more common in northern New Mexico, tell of the husband killing the children.
In Santa Fe, Maria, of course, is from Santa Fe and roams the Santa Fe River. Even in 1700, Santa Fe thought the state revolved around them!
Was La Llorona deserted by her husband? Wronged by a lover? Or, the victim of a cheating husband? Regardless, most versions of the legend have La Llorona killing her children in the river, then herself.
¿Dónde están sus niños?
It is said when Maria appeared before God, he asked her, "¿Dónde están sus niños?" (Where are your children?).
Maria replied, "No sé" (I don't know).
God then disfigured her to punish her selfish pride and then damned her to prowl the rivers forever in search of her children. Horrid to look at, she roams the deserts, particularly along the Rio Grande, looking for her dead children to this day. It is said if she encounters children, she drags them into the river and drowns them, hoping to present them to God as her own.
Over the centuries, many claim to have seen, or heard, La Llorona. Many describe her as being a beautiful, alluring woman dressed in a white dress with long black hair. Others say she is dressed in black. Only up close do people see her old, contorted face, and realize who she really is. Her spirit walks the rivers at night — often during a full moon — calling for her children or luring the children of others into the river.
Some say she carries with her an evil aura. Anyone who survives an encounter with La Llorona will soon be followed by tragedy. Others believe she is a bruja (a witch) casting spells of death or misfortune on those who clash with her. Her eerie spine-chilling cry is said to be an omen of death. Many believe La Llorona is the cause of so many children drowning in the ditches and rivers of New Mexico. Others claim it is contact with La Llorona that causes the occasional mother to kill her own children.
In interviewing many Socorroans, there are few that did not know one version or another of La Llorona. The legend was taught to them at a young age. Some remember the story scared them to death every time the wind blew, or they heard mysterious sounds in the night. A few shuddered when La Llorona was mentioned, often followed by a personal experience with the wailing woman of the river.
One might question, "Then why write a history article on a story that everyone knows?"
Well, because not everyone in Socorro had the good fortune of having a Spanish-speaking grandmother to forewarn you of the evils of the river. If you've ever caught an image of something in the corner of your eye, or heard an unexplained scream in the night — now you know. It was La Llorona. She is the most enduring legend of New Mexico in both story and song.
There have been recent crimes of mothers killing their children that have been compared to a modern day La Llorona. The similarities are striking. Here are a few of them.
Susan Smith
On Oct. 25, 1994, Susan Smith of Union, S.C., reported to police she had been carjacked by an African-American man who drove away with her two children still in the car. A nationwide search began for the missing 1990 Mazda Protégé and the two small children. Smith appeared on network television making tearful pleas for the safe return of her children. The heavily publicized kidnapping story captured the nation.
Nine days later, Smith confessed to killing her children. She told police where she had rolled her car into a nearby lake with her two children inside. Police found the automobile where Smith said it would be, and recovered the Mazda Protégé from the lake. Inside they found the drowned, lifeless bodies of 3-year-old Michael and his 14-month-old brother, Alexander.
During the trial, Smith explained her husband had recently divorced her. She had killed her children to dispose of them so she might have a relationship with a wealthy, local man who had no desire for a ready-made family. Without her children, she thought, she would be able to capture the charms of her new suitor.
This reasoning for killing her two children was widely met with contempt and disgust by mothers and fathers across the country. She was compared to La Llorona in a TIME magazine article. Smith was sentenced to life in prison and is not eligible for parole until 2024.
Andrea Yates
In 1993, Andrea Kennedy married the love of her life, Russell Yates. Due to their relationship with an extreme fundamentalist evangelist, they believed they should have as many children as possible. After four children, Andrea expressed she was exhausted by caring for the children and felt four children was enough. However, after pressure from her husband and their minister, Andrea gave birth to another child in 2000.
Andrea went into a deep depression after the birth of her fifth child. Continued pressure from her husband and minister led her to believe she and her children were evil, unrighteous, and were doomed to burn in hell.
On June 20, 2001, Andrea Yates filled the bathtub in their home and proceeded to drown her five children.
Yates calmly called her husband at work and told him, "You need to come home ... I've done it."
Andrea then called 911 and requested a policeman and ambulance.
Upon arrival at the Yates home, the police found four dead children laying on a bed covered with a sheet. The fifth child was still face down in the bath tub. Drowned by their mother were 7-month-old Mary, 2-year-old Luke, 3-year-old Paul, 5-year-old John, and 7-year-old Noah.
At the trial, Andrea confessed she had committed the "seventh deadliest sin" — filicide, or infanticide — the deliberate act of a parent killing their offspring. She did so to regain the love of her husband. Diagnosed with postpartum depression, she was sentenced to 40 years in a Texas state criminal mental institution rather than prison. In 2004, two years after being sentenced, her husband, Russell, divorced her. She remains incarcerated in Texas.
Christina Riggs
Christina Riggs was a divorced single mother of two working as a nurse in Sherwood, Ark. After her second husband divorced her, she became depressed, morbidly obese and frequented Karaoke bars looking for companionship.
On the evening of Nov. 4, 1997, Riggs gave her two children Elavil, an anti-depressant drug that induces drowsiness, then put them to bed. Once asleep, she injected her son, 5-year-old Justin, with potassium chloride. This is the heart stopping drug used to execute death row inmates. Justin awoke and cried out in terror as the burning pain from the lethal drug flowed through his veins. Riggs grabbed a pillow and finished the job by smothering her son to death.
Riggs then smothered her other son, 2-year-old Shelby, and placed the two dead children on the bed and covered them with a blanket.
Riggs then swallowed 28 tablets of Elavil and injected herself with a lethal dose of potassium chloride.
The next morning, their bodies were found by police, along with a suicide note that read in part: "I hope one day you will forgive me for taking my life and the life of my children. I couldn't bear to leave my children behind ... and live knowing their mother killed herself."
Medical personnel at the scene noticed the mother still had a weak heartbeat and was rushed to the hospital. Miraculously, she survived. Her two children, however, were pronounced dead by the coroner.
Riggs stood trial for the death of her children. The jury deliberated for less than hour before returning their guilty verdict. She requested the death sentence so she could be with her children. Her wish was granted.
Christina Riggs was executed by a lethal injection of potassium chloride on May 2, 2000. This story earned national attention at the time, not only for cruelly killing her two children, but for the objections of numerous rights groups protesting the execution of a woman — even though she requested it. Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee refused to intervene. Riggs became the first woman put to death in Arkansas in 150 years.
Some have claimed Riggs spirit is sometimes seen and heard in the halls of the Cummins State Penitentiary in Arkansas, calling for her children — an eerie likeness to La Llorona, in spite of the fact this famous legend is not well known outside of the Southwest and California.
Bernadette Flores
On Oct. 2, 2002, Bureau of Land Management employees found an abandoned car in the Rio Grande gorge near the town of Pilar, south of Taos. Nearby they discovered the body of a woman face down in the river — apparently a self-inflicted drowning.
State Police identified the woman as 32-year-old Bernadette Flores. When they notified the mother of Bernadette's apparent suicide, she inquired where her two grandchildren were. Flores had recently been divorced and was despondent over the inability to care for her children. Checking with other family members and friends, Flores' two children could not be located.
State Police returned to the scene with a search and rescue team. Farther down river, they discovered the bodies of two young children on the river bank. Family members identified the bodies as that of Flores' 10-month-old son Martin, and 4-year-old daughter Kiana.
State Police Lt. Rob Shilling told the news media, "There's no indication that anyone other than the mother and the children were involved in this incident."
The Office of the Medical Investigator agreed. It surmised Bernadette Flores drowned her two children in the Rio Grande. Drugs in her system indicated she was highly sedated, allowing her to drown herself in the river. Family members, knowing of Flores' distraught state, agreed with the findings. Flores, and her two children, were buried on the Jicarilla Indian Reservation at Dulce.
The old Hispanic community of Pilar sits in a fertile valley along the Rio Grande on the road between Española and Taos. They knew well that La Llorona had struck again.
Cries in the night
Along the Rio Grande, particularly from Belen to Juarez, many people over the years have reported not so much seeing La Llorona, but hearing her. Her banshee screams are often heard in the bosque. Fishermen, hunters and those who are simply exploring the bosque have been startled at night with the screams from the lady of the river.
About 20 years ago, several Socorro men were having a party in the bosque south of the Escondida Lake bridge. It was a pleasant, warm night — perfectly calm, with a clear sky full of stars. About midnight, a brisk wind began to blow through the trees, making a host of eerie sounds. Suddenly, a scream was heard coming from the river. Then another. A few seconds later, the screams were heard coming from behind them. Over a period of several minutes, they followed the screams as they moved all around them, but never saw anything. As quickly as the wind and the screaming of La Llorona began, it stopped. The men were certain — La Llorona was only feet away, hiding in the darkness behind the trees.
The man who related this story to me said he has never returned to that section of the river.
It is said the meaning of the legend of La Llorona is to keep children away from the river at night. Others say it is a lesson to young women not marry out of your class.
Perhaps the real lesson of La Llorona is for adults — that mothers and fathers have the profound responsibility to love and protect their children. Those who betray this responsibility will suffer the consequences for eternity.
Still, I'd play it safe and stay away from the Rio Grande at night!

Director Hari Gopalakrishnan is looking forward to Sanjay Dutt-starrer Bollywood film "Policegiri", which is the remake of his own "Saamy".
"Policegiri", directed by K.S Ravikumar also features Prachi Desai, Prakash Raj, Om Puri, Rajpal Yadav, Manoj Joshi and Mukesh Tiwari. It is also releasing worldwide on Friday, the same day as Hari's Tamil action-drama "Singam 2", which is releasing Friday.
"I loved the trailer of 'Policegiri', and I want to see the film whenever I find time. I know Ravikumar sir would've done complete justice to the film. I'm eagerly waiting for 'Singam 2' to release and see how it will be received," Hari told IANS.
Hari says he never expected "Saamy" would be remade in Bollywood.
"I didn't expect that it will ever be remade in Hindi. I just made it and it turned out to be successful. The Telugu remake version was highly successful and I'm sure it will be bigger hit in Hindi as well," he said.
The Telugu version of "Saamy" was titled "Lakshmi Narasimha" featuring Nandamuri Balakrishna.
Hari's "Singam 2", featuring Suriya Sivakumar, Anushka Shetty and Hansika Motwani is the sequel to highly successful "Singham".

Men accused of causing $6,600 in damage during copper theftMarch 02,2013NEWFANE — Two men are accused of causing more than $6,000 in damage to a Vermont Electric Power Company substation in September while stealing about $740 in copper wire, according to Trooper Jeff Hudson of the Vermont State Police.
Russell A. Buzby, 46, of Newfane, and James D. Nestor Jr., 45, of Bennington, are scheduled to be arraigned in Windham criminal court on March 26 on charges of grand larceny, unlawful trespass and unlawful mischief, Hudson said in a press release.
On Sept. 20, the Vermont State Police were notified of a copper wire theft from the VELCO substation in Newfane on Route 30.
After an investigation, aided by surveillance video from the substation, police determined that Nestor and Buzby stole several hundred pounds of copper ground wire from the VELCO substation around 8 p.m. Sept. 16, causing damage in the process.
Upon questioning, both Buzby and Nestor admitted to the theft, Hudson said.
The stolen copper was sold to a scrap yard for about $736. The cost to repair the substation was estimated at about $6,600.MORE IN This Just InIn sifting through my ever expanding Pocket queue of things Ive been meaning to read, I found... Full Story

Skip to comments.Democratic congressman mocks tea partys affinity for guns and the Bible
Posted on 09/18/2013 2:32:04 PM PDT by Tailgunner Joe
Tennessee Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen blamed opposition to gun control on voters affinities for guns and the Bible on Wednesday in an MSNBC appearance.
I got the vitriol from on the Twitter from all these people who opposed that cartoon, said Cohen, who tweeted a cartoon that appeared to blame the National Rifle Association for the Navy Yard shooting spree on Tuesday. They are hardcore Republicans. This I think means more to them than I think their guns are right there next to their Bibles. Im not sure which they find more important to them.
Cohens remarks bear a strong resemblance to comments made by President Barack Obama in 2008 at a California fundraiser, where he explained that economic downturns pushed bitter Pennsylvania voters to cling to guns or religion a point co-host David Corn quickly made.
Corn also asked if opposition to disarming private citizens was a cultural matter that cant really be broken by simple politics.
Corns question prompted Cohen to blame guns and the Bible for primary challenges to moderate establishment Republicans.
Its been that way for a while, and it certainly is in the Republican caucus, Cohen said. These people are afraid to get primaried, which they would. And you see Lamar Alexander, whos a reasonable Republican, now has a right-wing opponent in his primary in my state. Mitch McConnell has one in Kentucky. Rich Luger, one of the stars of the Senate, was defeated by a right-winger, so its around, and its difficult. And it is guns, and the Bible.
Cohen also said of gun-rights advocates: I think their guns are next there to their bibles. I'm not sure which they find more important to them. After his Murderers Row comment, Cohen insisted that Republicans like their guns more than God: I think guns trump bibles on that side of the aisle.
And I mock the Democrat Party's affinity for policies that are designed and implemented to destroy society and ensure Democrat rule.
And sucking Obama's c0ck means more to you than the country and constitutional rights rep Cohen....
Blow it out of your @$$
The public at large certainly seem to pay more attention to a gun than a bible.
Another communist heard from...
They come in all shapes and sizes these days.
Mr. Congressman: You can stick it up yours. Don't like it, leave.
No, They are hard-core, patriotic Americans.
They cling to the quaint idea that loyalty to our country comes before fealty to a political party or a socialist fantasy.
So this buttcheese will be waiting for a cop and praying they get there before the democrat voter kicks his door down and ends his life.
"It's the damned fault of the will of the people in a representative Republic. If we could just have a king or an emperor we wouldn't have to put up with these little people."
Gonna teach the youth group Revelation 14 tonight, then come home and resize some 5.56 ...
He must be from the part of Tennessee where inbreeding is still popular.
That's OK, I mock liberals for their affinity for sucking c***. I think if a handgun fit in a bung hole comfortably, they'd be more inclined to defend their use.
Steve Cohen has a 0.67 lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union.
Steve Cohen, DEMONRAT from Tennessee, makes a RACIST tweet, the media forgives him after he "explains" his racism.
I'd like to ask Mr. COHEN a question. Would you want the people (IDF) of Israel to give up the guns they keep at HOME?
The dead don't bother you, rather it is their 'right' to defend themselves when the fan gets hit.
Before you accuse me of " ", I, too spent much of the last 2 weeks in the synagogue.
Some say "Never Again", while Mr. Cohen says, "Well, maybe just once more."
Not smart to bash one's own state ...
And we mock their affinities for Islam and underage boys.
Rats love guns, too. They just love them in the hands of government thugs.
They are hardcore Republicans. This I think means more to them than I think their guns are right there next to their Bibles. Im not sure which they find more important to them.
You know, he thinks he is insulting us, but I take this as high praise. We are correctly prioritizing two of the most important things in life (the Bible does come in first though). Thanks for noticing, lib!
This guy must be in a really safe gerrymandered, vote frauding, obama loving, dimocrat district to say something like that in Tennessee. But maybe Tennessee isn't the Tennessee i imagine it to be.
Tennessee Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen...RESIGN you POS anti-American totalitarian wannabee...and PAY UP...
Wheres that wanted poster for socialist robbery?
Socialism Is Legal Plunder - Bastiat
I guess we know where this douche bag stands on the 1st and 2nd amendments.
No, he's from the part of Tennessee where Communists and whitey-bashing are still popular.
He has a ton of "service"/"good guy" awards, one of them from the Human [homosexual] Rights <ptui!> Campaign. He's also bigtime ACLU/NAACP buddy.
Remember that Tennessee produced two Fords and two Gores, all pinker than a rhesus monkey's ass.
He's a white liberal from a Memphis district that is 60% black. Which makes me seriously wonder how much he has to debase himself to get elected.
Memphis; that tell you anything?
1 Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees,
2 to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless.
3 What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar? To whom will you run for help?
Where will you leave your riches? 4 Nothing will remain but to cringe among the captives or fall among the slain.
They have ALWAYS been in the tank for Obozo. No matter how ridiculous the argument was.
I don't know which scenario I'd like better:
1. Read that the SOB was shot dead in his home unable to defend himself due to his aversion to guns
2. Have him shoot an intruder and thus expose himself as a hypocrite.
Either way we would win!
to Steve:
Steve, you are an idiot
the dude that did it was an obamaton
Yup. That's me. Proud of it, too. :)
As opposed to the congressman's affinity for gay boys and the devil. :)
I don't know how you got away with it, but you expressed my feelings very well.
(btw, good tagline ! d:^)
He represents that toilet bowl Memphis...no wonder.
Yes, Rep. Stevens - I do have an affinity for my Bible, it helps me know my God better. Teaches me about my salvation through Jesus. It inspires me and helps guide me.
Explain to me the problem Mr. Stevens. Try to.
Farnsbaby, our sentiments exactly.
Thanks. The tagline goes with the alter ego. Google my screen name and check out the Wikipedia explanation. If you are a Larry Niven fan you already understand. Speaker did finally earn the name Chmee, but I am sentimental.
"I keep my gun next to my bible
and a copy of the Constitution."
We wish that Tennessee Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen would explain his affinity to the killing of 60 million defenseless babies, and his affinity to death panels, and same sex marriage. Does Steve Cohen believe that men and women are interchangeable? Does Steve Cohen believe that our military should be armed? If yes, why are our domestic bases gun free zones? (technically ammunition free zones)?
Why is Steve Cohen obsessed with taking guns away from law abiding, tax paying citizens? Can Steve Cohen connect the dots between reduced crime rates and guns? High crime rates correlate with strict gun control laws such as being exhibited in Chicago and Washington, DC.
Government and Dictators have killed millions more humans than our armed citizenry. The results of the 2008 election shows the need of stronger background checks for our elected officials.
Guns and bibles are co-equal in importance. You can't fight a dictator without a gun and without the Bible, you won't have the resolve to do it.
This is why dictators get rid of guns and religion first.
great minds my friend, great minds....
Cohen probably goes home and dresses in a knock off of Michelle's inaugural dress and dances with his Obama love doll.
Keep up the fire, friend.
Got to preach to the choir, been kicked off the liberal sites
That's good! I'm going to have to remember that one.
All I have to offer in trade right now is: "crazier than a rat in a tin sh!thouse during a hail storm", which you are welcome to provided you do not already have it.
Actually, I can't claim the rhesus monkeys .... that's an oldie from the 50's or even the 40's, belonged to the Great Generation.

BYU report card vs. Gonzaga: Cougars struggle in all facets of the game in a tough loss
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
The Cougars had no answer for Sam Dower and the inside play of the Bulldogs as Gonzaga beat BYU 75-64 on Tuesday night to win the West Coast Conference tournament and earn an automatic bid to the Big Dance.
Dower finished with 20 points on 10-of-16 shooting to go along with 13 rebounds. As good as the Bulldogs' inside play was, it was the defense of David Stockton and Kevin Pangos that made all the difference in the contest. Both played all 40 minutes and forced the Cougar guards to shoot contested shots all night long.
Tyler Haws led the way for BYU with 24 points to go along with five rebounds. The only other Cougar to score in double figures was Kyle Collinsworth, who finished with 13 points and six rebounds before leaving the game after an apparent knee injury.
The starting guards
Haws made 6-of-14 shots from the field and all 11 of his free-throw attempts in 38 minutes on the floor. Collinsworth really looked to force the action offensively and had some success, but was credited with four turnovers before exiting the game. Anson Winder was solid on the defensive end, but disappeared offensively and went scoreless in the game while only taking four shots.
Grade: C
The starting frontcourt
Nate Austin scored two points and grabbed five rebounds, but was no match on the inside for the Gonzaga big men. Eric Mika had an impressive night on the glass with 10 rebounds and blocked two shots, but was held to just eight points on eight field goal attempts. He had a hard time rotating out of the BYU zone defense, leaving the Zags with plenty of open looks.
Grade: C-
The bench
With Mika back in the starting lineup, BYU only got 17 points off the bench. Matt Carlino scored eight points, but was only 3-of-12 from the floor and 2-of-5 from the free-throw line. Frank Bartley IV played well in his first sustained game action in some time. He registered nine points and four rebounds. Halford, Sharp and Worthington also saw some floor time and combined for three rebounds.
Grade: C-
BYU stayed in the zone far too long to start the game and Gonzaga took advantage. The Bulldogs had plenty of open looks from the corners after good ball movement and the Cougars didn't adjust. The BYU offense was ineffective against the Bulldogs' press defense leaving the Cougars to shoot 35.6 percent from the floor and 23.1 percent from behind the arc.
Grade: C
Gonzaga got up on BYU early and the Cougars had no answers. It took until the injury of Collinsworth for BYU to show some fight. They managed to cut into a 20-point deficit and make the game interesting from that point on, but it was too little too late. Gonzaga was a step ahead of the Cougars all night long and it showed.
Grade: C-
Now the Cougars and their fans will have a few anxious days wondering about the health of Collinsworth, and also if they have done enough to earn an at-large berth in the NCAA tournament.

What are your thoughts on The March on Washington and King's legacy?
Alex Fila, 18, of Boonton, N.J. Freshman at King's College:
"We go over it ever year in history (class), all of his speeches, and how great of a person he was and how many changes he helped to make."
Fantasya Ruiz, 18, of Hazleton. Freshman at King's College:
"If it wasn't for him, everything would still be the same. Blacks and whites wouldn't interact as much as they do now."
Larry Singleton, 64, of Wilkes-Barre. First vice president of Wilkes-Barre NAACP:
"We have made some progress, but we still yet haven't achieved that ultimate goal. We still don't identify as totally equal. We still have some issues out there. It's not as prevalent as it was 50 years ago, but it does exist. It's something we're still working on." "We have hope. You hope that color itself will not be an issue."
Amber Ostan, 19, of Ridley Park. Freshman at King's College:
"I think of how much he moved and shaped America and how far we've come and how everyone's treated so much better and how everyone's treated equally now. It's not all due to him, but a big part is how courageous he was and what he did and spoke up for."
Nathan Ward, 32, of Wilkes-Barre. Director for college diversity at King's College:
"The dream that (Martin Luther King Jr.) speaks of is one that's still apparent in many people's minds. One of the questions is how to complete and how to go about achieving it."

Jinja Central B Group
Florence has been making gradual inroads and she is very upbeat about the future prospects of her enterprise. Weekly she says her sales revenue totals up to shillings 200,000 Ugandan shillings. Florence is asking for this Kiva loan to expand her business. She says she is going to purchase more pairs of shoes and also pay for a market stall where she can sell her shoes.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

This cleanser is great! I've noticed much less breakouts ever since I started using this (along with regular salicylic acid scrubs). The only complaint I have is that it really does thoroughly dry out your skin. But I will def be buying more of this and any other Dr. G products as they really seem to work.

Resident game birds, mammals and migratory game birds
Waterfowl and other migratory game bird regulations
Migratory game bird and crow regulations are not included in this booklet. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is responsible for determining guidelines to take and possess migratory bird species. The USFWS had not finalized this season's rules and regulations at the time this publication went to press. Migratory game bird seasons, bag limits and methods of taking will be available by mid-October at MyFWC.com/Duck.
New bird flu in waterfowl
New strains of avian influenza (bird flu) have been introduced into the U.S. and may appear in Florida. Although these strains are not known to cause disease in humans, hunters are still urged to take precautions. Further information can be found at MyFWC.com/WildlifeHealth. You can assist by reporting bird mortality events online at MyFWC.com/Bird or by calling your regional FWC office.
Florida's CWD watch
Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) is a progressive fatal disease of the brain and nervous system in deer. The FWC has not found CWD in or near Florida but we must continue to be vigilant. If you find a deer dead of unknown causes or observe or harvest a deer that is extremely thin, sick, or diseased immediately contact the FWC at 866-CWD-Watch (866-293-9282).
For more information about CWD, visit MyFWC.com/CWD.
Regulations in red are new this year.

Men's Hockey Splits Series with Minnesota State
Another weekend on the road resulted in another split for the St. Cloud State Men's Hockey team. The squad took the ice in Mankato against WCHA foe Minnesota State and dropped Friday's game 4-2, but came back and won Saturday by a score of 3-2.
Friday's game saw the Huskies strike first. Without Captain Drew LeBlanc, the top line saw first-year Brooks Bertsch added to the mix, and he didn't disappoint notching his first collegiate goal to give SCSU a 1-0 in the first period. After that, MSU rattled off three straight goals, including one SCSU's Ben Hanowski accidentally knocked into his own net. St. Cloud's Cory Thorson scored 54 seconds into the third period to cut MSU's lead to 3-2, but Cameron Cooper scored for the Mavericks minutes later to give Mankato the 4-2 win.
After Friday's result, the Huskies came out flying on Saturday and scored twice in the game's first two minutes. Thorson notched his second of the weekend on a deflection just 1:19 into the game. Seconds later, Hanowski tallied his seventh goal of the season at the 1:48 mark. David Eddy also scored in the first period, and goalie Ryan Faragher stood tall stopping 29 shots as SCSU earned a split with the 3-2 victory.
St. Cloud now stands at 5-5-2 on the season and 3-2-1 in the WCHA. This weekend the Huskies take on the #1 Minnesota Golden Gophers in a home & home series. Friday's game will take place at the National Hockey Center with a 7:37 puckdrop, and Saturday's game will be in Minneapolis at Mariucci Arena with a 7:07 game time.
KVSC will have the call for both games, as Zack Fisch, Dave Overlund and Matt Bishop call the shots. We'll be on the air thirty minutes prior with Pre-Game coverage. For updates throughout the week on Husky Hockey, log on to Twitter and follow @KVSCHockey.

New technology means coal can be both clean and reliable, UK think tank says
Bill Miller | May 16, 2007
By Bill Miller • Wednesday, May 16, 2007 - 11:57
Coal has long been seen as a dirty fuel due to high carbon emissions, a key cause of climate change.
But a new report says clean technologies already in hand can reduce the environmental damage. Moreover, unlike some renewable energy, coal can be stored and provided on demand.

A line of showers and storms is moving west to east tonight.
The line is capable of producing very heavy rainfall, lightning, and gusty winds.
At this time the storms are below the severe threshold but there is still the chance for a few isolated severe storms.
Expect the showers to linger into the overnight as a cold front moves through the area.
Overnight lows will drop to near 70° under mostly cloudy skies.
There is a Severe Thunderstorm Watch for Halifax, Northampton, Edgecombe, Wayne, and Wilson counties until 10:00 pm.
Scattered showers and storms will continue to form this evening with the potential for some of the storms to become severe.
Any storm that forms will produce very heavy rain, frequent lightning, hail, and gusty winds.
In the strongest storms the winds will be capable of gusting to 60 mph or greater with up to quarter size hail.
The severe threat will diminish late this evening as a cold front moves through the area.
Improving conditions are expected after midnight.

Vim command parser
Vim's commands are powerful. This library is meant to parse those that fit a general syntax of:
As defined in vim docs
var Parser = require('vim-command-parser'), parser = new Parser();
Input: command string
Output: object
description: '{operator}{count}{motion}' value: 'c' 3 'fa'
Why is this useful? Imagine implementing the actual commands like so:
//Define command handlers var commands = whilect-- thisexecmotion; ;
//Use the parser to map keystrokes to handlers var keyBuffer = '';vimon'key' keyBuffer += key; var command = parserparsekeyBuffer; ifcommanddescription in commands commandscommanddescriptionapplyvimcommandvalue;

Jacksonville police say they have seized more than a million dollars worth of Spice after an undercover operation.
Police say they learned the now-illegal synthetic marijuana was being sold at The One Stop Shop on Corbin Road. They arrested an employee, Abdullah Saleh and seized almost $100,000 in Spice at the store.
Spice became illegal in North Carolina this summer.
Officers also learned that Spice was also being sold at Discount Tobacco on Western Boulevard. Owner Mohammed Dahmash was arrested and they seized $1,021,830 worth of Spice from Discount Tobacco.
Saleh was charged with selling a synthetic cannabinoid, delivery of a synthetic cannabinoid, and possession with intent to manufacture, sell, distribute a synthetic cannabinoid. His bond was set at $33,000.
Damash was charged with trafficking synthetics, possession of drug paraphernalia, maintaining a dwelling, selling within a 1000 feet of a daycare, and conspire to traffic in synthetics. His bond was set at $150,000.

Have you ever wondered if party rockers are truly happy?
A recent study on the subject yielded results that might surprise you.
The study illustrated in this video is just one example of a new movement called Experimental Philosophy (or "x-phi" for short). Experimental philosophers go after philosophical questions by taking the unusual approach of getting up out of their armchairs and going out to the streets to conduct empirical studies.

Filed under: Security | Tags: jaiku, network security, networking, pownce, Securitagreed:y, security twits, Social Media, tweet scan, twitter, twitter karma, twitter packs
There seems to be quite the little network security community growing on Twitter, which truthfully has made for some fascinating discussion over the last few weeks. However there are a few challenges:
- It's really hard to find each other. Searches via Tweet Scan on the "security" keyword result in everything from complaining about physical security to debating homeland security to emo song lyrics.
- Not a whole lot of of security folks are yet on Twitter, and if they are, see bullet No. 1.
- Even if you find a security person and add them, unless they use Twitter Karma, they may not even know you're following them due to Twitter's unreliable and sporadic notification system.
What's the solution? Twitter Packs, while a great tool, can be a bit daunting if you're really trying to dig into one niche area, and really at this point only Twitter power users know about the packs. Ryan Naraine suggested to me yesterday that a separate list of "Security Twits" (really, guys, it's not an insult — Twitter users = Twits) that the security community could manage itself would be a great tool. I agreed:
So, what now? Click on the names above to view the Security Twits' (I swear this is what it's called…) Twitter pages, and if you're on Twitter, add them to your follower list. If you're not on Twitter, sign up. Whether it be Twitter or Pownce or Jaiku, micro-blogging is on fire right now, and based on research thus far the security network hasn't spread as widely to the other two services — yet. If you're new to Twitter, read this blog post on the must-haves for newbies.Send this list to your own security networks and recruit more Security Twits. Comment below if you have any corrections or additions. This blog post will serve as a living document. When a suggestion is made in the comment section, I will update the blog post as appropriate.
Oh, and if you want to add me to your Twitter feed, I am over here. I'll post an update whenever this list is improved and enhanced. Feedback is always welcome.

'We're Not Here to Manage Wales. We're Here to Change It' Plaid Throw Down Gauntlet with Pledge to Connect with Voters
Byline: David Williamson
SUPPORTERS of Plaid Cymru who gathered in Llandudno were yesterday given a vision of their party in power for a generation.
Rank and file members at the annual conference were urged to put fears of failure aside as the party prepared to make an unprecedented attempt to connect with people from different backgrounds across Wales.
Plaid leader and Deputy First Minister Ieuan Wyn Jones said: "We must reach out and listen to what people say and share Plaid's message with those people in a way they have never seen or heard before...
"We are the party for everyone in Wales, whatever their language, whatever their background and wherever they live."
The party will launch its "biggest ever consultation" in the run-up to the 2011 Assembly elections. It wants to use this idea-gathering exercise both as a means of winning new supporters and crafting innovative policies.
It fell to Rural Affairs Minister Elin Jones to fire warning shots at Labour leadership hopefuls who may be tempted to renegotiate elements of the coalition.
She portrayed Labour as a "nervous" party as it waited for First Minister Rhodri Morgan to announce his retirement and for the leadership race to officially commence.
Urging supporters to respond to turbulence ahead with calm, she said: "If [the race begins], over the next few months then Plaid Cymru will, I have no doubt, find itself in the firing line.
"It would be a pretty timid Labour leadership contest if the candidates and their spokespeople didn't have a go at Plaid Cymru or the coalition...
"We should ignore those shenanigans.
"We should allow Labour to dwell on their internal insecurities and keep our focus on the job in hand, governing Wales and delivering One Wales."
She insisted that this coalition agreement could not be altered, saying: "[We] will, of course, expect the Labour leader to deliver a full commitment to delivering One Wales. It is non-negotiable.
"The personalities and trust between party leaders and chief negotiators play a huge role in forming coalitions - but once negotiated the coalition is in the ownership of the two political parties on behalf of the people of Wales.
"No one person, not even one of the party leaders, can start to pick and choose or tinker with the content."
She moved to scotch spec-ulation that the referendum on law-making powers which the two parties have pledged to work towards will not be put off until after 2011. …

Dealing with Post Traumatic Stress After War
Many active duty soldiers and veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan return home with nightmares, flashbacks, and emotional hypersensitivity. Some of them are diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Farai Chideya talks with June Moss, who served in Iraq in 2003 and was released from the Army two years later on early medical retirement due to her PTSD.
We also hear from Dr. Robert Jenkins, an attending psychologist at the Men's Trauma Recovery Program at the National Center for PTSD in Menlo Park's Department of Veteran Affairs Division.
