Barbaric: Muslim Court Allows Wife Beating

Tags:court allows wife beating
The Federal Supreme Court of the United Arab Emirates today ruled that it is legal for their Muslim Arab men to beat their wives and children.
This barbaric ruling has the Christian community and other human rights activists up in arms.
The case that brought this attention to the UAE high court involved an Arab man who senselessly beat his wife and their 23-year-old daughter during a fit of unwarranted anger.
The man beat his wife so severely, she was left with marks. The 23-year-old daughter suffered broken teeth and a busted lip. It remains unconfirmed if the Muslim father in this horrifying case threw stones at his wife and daughter in his punishment.
Apparently in the UAE, however, this type of behavior is acceptable. A case like this went to their version of the Supreme Court.
The ruling judge in this case, Judge Falah as Hajer, ruled that since the daughter was 23-years-old and the father had no causal impetus for the beating, that he had violated his legal Sharia Law hadith (right) to abuse his wife and daughter for causing him anger.
Precedent was established by this case, which reconfirms the rights all Muslims have by law to grievously punish and abuse their wives and children under 21-years-of age.

This beast drew blood and probably stoned them. The court actually upheld this as fine in their national law. This is why these Persians will always hate freedom.

The bible calls for stoning wives and daughters who are not chaste for their husbands or are not virgins for their bridegrooms.
Those women need to learn that men are in charge and own them. God says so.

So it's fine with you for Christian husbands to "gently" beat their wives, but it's wrong for Muslim husbands to beat their wives? How about you just grow a pair and say that ALL beating is wrong, no matter how "gentle" it may be? Oh, that's right, because you feel the need to reserve the right for yourself to beat your wife when she gets "out of line", so you justify it by claiming that it's "just a godly tap".
Whether it's "just a godly tap", or a full-blown beating, the principle is the same: that women are inferior and need to be disciplined as though they were children. That is WRONG, and that is why spousal abuse OF ALL KINDS is wrong – "light beatings", as you so eloquently like to put it, full-blown beatings, as well as psychological, emotional, and sexual abuse.
Do I need to say it again? ANY KIND of physical contact a man has with his wife that is intended to discipline, demean, degrade, or otherwise treat her as an inferior, whether it be no more violent than lifting a simple finger against her, is WRONG. Women are NOT children, nor are we dogs, thus we do not have to be "taught" what is right and wrong via positive or negative reinforcement.

I would never beat you, Claire.

Claire, how do you even manage to keep yourself from having nausea and then syncope with so many mental gymnastics to twist the point here.
A Muslim beat his daughter to the point that she bled. That is not a gentle rap; that is full out abuse. Like mentioned there was also that story where the Muslim Dad MURDERED his daughter for going out on a date with a normal American. Barbaric is the only word for it.
There is a world of difference between gently tapping a child on the bottom, then say, smashing their head with a stone. One, any normal parent will inevitably have to do.
A child may try to play with glass. You'd hit their hand very lightly, "No, no." A wife may accidentally brandish a gun without the safety in the direction of some people, a quick snatch of the gun and "No, no." The scenarios are not what matter, but the context and intent. It's just a way to quickly grab attention of the one who needs discipline, not trying to harm them.
The Muslim however beat them to the point of bleeding and he was mad about something totally unrelated to them. This is typical of arrogant Muslims and there disrespect for life.
Praise or Condemn: 2 2
Mental gymnastics? It's really not that difficult of an equation:
Wife beating = inferior implication = WRONG
Wife "tapping" = inferior implication = WRONG
As for your hypothetical situations, once again, WOMEN ARE NOT CHILDREN. Any woman who is old enough to be a wife in the United States is also SMART enough to know not to do things that bring them down to the intellectual level of a child. If, however, said woman is a valley girl who majored in Fashion Design in college, and thus does something foolish, her husband still shouldn't treat her like a child and smack her hand and say "No, no". Rather, all he has to do is say "Whoa, honey, the safety's not on". That being said, the majority of women did NOT major in Fashion Design and thus are on the intellectual level of men.
Shall I repeat it? Do you need it dumbed down in caveman speak for you?
Woman = adult
Adult = not child
Not child = man's equal
Man's equal = no need for "discipline" by husband

Says the bastard who thinks abuse is good and murder is great, yet claims they're also evil.
//A Muslim beat his daughter to the point that she bled. That is not a gentle rap; that is full out abuse. Like mentioned there was also that story where the Muslim Dad MURDERED his daughter for going out on a date with a normal American. Barbaric is the only word for it.//
And you feel the need to oppress the rights of basic citizens, lie constantly, generalize, racially stereotype, and even pray that people get murdered. Besides, it's not like you give two shits about these people, this only fuels your hatred towards them and how they should be nuked. You would have murdered that whole family just for being Muslim, so how's that different than what the man did?
//There is a world of difference between gently tapping a child on the bottom, then say, smashing their head with a stone. One, any normal parent will inevitably have to do.//
Ah, so you prefer to not leave behind evidence, eh? Use a phone book, that won't leave any bruises, that's your method.

The situation with a child is reasonable, but you can't justify ANY reason of hitting a woman unless she intends on harming others, and the situation you gave was incredibly stupid for SO many reasons. Women aren't children, and hitting them for any reason is considered abuse and assault. Just admit it Adam, you'd beat the blood out of a woman who came five feet near you if she didn't make you a sandwich.
//The Muslim however beat them to the point of bleeding and he was mad about something totally unrelated to them. This is typical of arrogant Muslims and there disrespect for life.//
You're mad about people enjoying live and trying to be with people they love. You're mad about people existing who aren't apart of the same religion as you. You're mad about the idea of people who aren't white Americans existing in this world. This is typical of arrogant and ignorant Christians and their terrorist ways.

Read that story. Look at the horrors afflicted upon the swimmers by the Dubai Arabs.
Look at the words of Saad, with no heart.
He calls the victim 'some guy'. He has no heart. Abu Dabai has 4-year-old camel racers who die every day. The UAE laughs about it and schemes new ways to snare people in their heated Arabian death trap. Read that story and tell me those people are right?

You are very arrogant, Claire. So you're trying to say women who do fashion design are not smart. Way to set your movement back 100 years, buckaroo.
Women who do fashion contribute to this world and may be smarter than you. Plenty of women in that industry make a fine living for themselves and are creative. You are a very mean, nasty person to think just because you are a vet tech that you have something over other women. Are you Indian?
And no, you are comparing apples and oranges. This Muslim stoned his family. We read about the Muslim father who was applauded for killing his daughter for dating a Western man. Saddam also tried to kill his daughter for marrying a Westerner. These people are sick and Barbaric, you have no idea.
There is nothing wrong with giving a kid a swift rap. If I go in the kitchen and try to sneak some apple dumplings before Thanksgiving this year, my grandmother will probably paddle my hand with a wooden spoon. "No!", she will say playfully and with love. That's all I'm talking about here. Every man has the right to do such as well to his wife or children.
It's not a smack; it's no different than grandma paddling people out of the kitchen on Thanksgiving. We get the point! No sneaking the goods before all dinner is done.
The same goes for what I'm talking about, but with a certain sterness behind it to indicate the importance of the situation. It is needed and wife and children are better for it. With this Muslim did was inexcusable and hopefully he knows Satan will stone him and all his Persian ilk with hot coals for eternity.

"Women who do fashion contribute to this world and may be smarter than you."
They may be intelligent when it comes to fabric and what goes well with what, but they're lacking in the overall brain cell department. Come to my school and you'll see what I'm talking about.
"Are you Indian?"
No, and I do not believe in the caste system, if that's what you're implying. You, on the other hand, believe that ALL women are inferior when compared to men, so you have no room to be talking.
"Every man has the right to do such as well to his wife or children."
Then every woman has the right to do that to her husband, as well.

Are you being retarded again Adam? Are you trying to desperately cling to some kind of flaw that you can 'exploit' to somehow invalidate your opponent's arguments, even if that flaw or whatever is NOWHERE NEAR RELATED to the subject at hand?
In short, are you running away from the actual subject? Short answer: yes, because you lack the ability to argue any points without resorting to a 2000 year old book that's heavily outdated and clashes with many findings and laws in this century.
//Whatever the case, you really owe your kind an apology with such a crass statement.//
Compared to the bastard who believes women are inferior and should be beaten if they don't do what the husband says and is pissed off that they have freedoms, saying that fashion designers in her area are rather stupid is pretty damn tame, near complimentary depending on how much else you wanna say about women.
//Women cannot chastise the husband because it is not Biblical.//
You only follow the parts of the Bible that you care about, so why the fuck do you bring it up at all? The bible states that all life is precious; yet murder is a perfectly acceptable answer to many problems brought up. The bible states that we should love one another as one big ol' family; yet hatred is a prominent theme for many of your 'heroes'. You see WHY bringing the Bible up is a bad idea?

Please get your facts right. The Shari'ah says that a husband may beat his wife with nothing thicker than his thumb, and that it must not leave any mark otherwise it is unlawful. I do not condone wife-beating at all, regardless of whether or not it leaves a mark and regardless of what Islam says, but I just wanted to point out that you clearly know nothing about the Shari'ah. Do your research.

ESPN: City close in on Demichelis
- 24 August 2013 08:46
- Posted by @mccarthy_mcfc
We brought you reports of City's apparent interest in Martin Demichelis earlier in the week and now it seems the Blues have stepped up their bid to bring the Argentine to England.
According to ESPN, City want Atletico Madrid to reduce their €5 million asking price for a player they signed on a free transfer earlier this summer.
"City manager Manuel Pellegrini worked with Demichelis when both were at Malaga and has made him his top target," the website reports.
"And the 2012 Premier League champions have switched their attention to the Argentina international after accepting it was unlikely that Pepe would leave Real Madrid to sign for them.
"Demichelis, a former River Plate and Bayern Munich player, signed for Atletico when his Malaga contract expired this summer.
"If the deal doesn't go through, midfielder Javi Garcia, who came on for Kompany against Newcastle, is likely to deputise while Dedryck Boyata, who has not played a competitive game for City since May 2011, is also in contention."
Remember we here at mcfc.co.uk will be first with any transfer news before the window closes this summer.
Meanwhile, Cardiff boss Malky Mackay has been admiring Manuel Pellegrini's squad ahead of tomorrow's trip to Wales.
"Mackay's keen interest in how Pellegrini's side fared against Newcastle, who had Steven Taylor sent off as half-time approached, led him to describe their display as "excellent," the BBC reports.
The Scot was particularly impressed with the strength his Chilean managerial counterpart had to call on from the bench.
Mackay said: "I look at the players they have coming off the bench and the impact they have as well. They are a top team."
You can follow tomorrow's game on the official website where our new Match Day Centre will be in operation as well as on our social channels – Twitter, Facebook and Google+. We'll also have all the usual pre and post-match build up for you to enjoy!
Finally this morning, West Brom manager Steve Clarke is backing new loan signing Scott Sinclair to get the nod for England.
The City winger joined the Baggies this week for the remainder of the season and Clarke believes the move will provide Scott with the perfect platform to show what he has to offer.
"Clarke believes rural-loving Scott Sinclair can use Albion to get a World Cup ticket to Brazil," writes the Birmingham Mail's Bill Howell.
"The 24-year-old has England under-21 and Great Britain Olympic experience but Baggies boss Clarke clearly thinks the winger can gate-crash England's squad with Roy Hodgson struggling for attacking options."

President Obama Talks Fifty Shades of Grey & Debate "Off Night" with Jon Stewart
President Obama discusses "Fifty Shades of Grey" and his "off night" in the first presidential debate on Thursday's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart."
The Commander-in-Chief sits for two segments of roughly seven minutes apiece with Stewart, who last interviewed Obama in October 2010.
In the first light moment between Obama and Stewart, the host holds up two pictures of First Lady Michelle Obama — one in which she looked angry, one in which she was smiling — and asks the President, "Do you know which debate was which?"
Smiling, Obama replies, "Cute. Cute, Jon," before acknowledging that his widely-criticized performance in the first debate was an "off night" and that the "presentation was not the way it needed to be."
In the second segment, Stewart reportedly asks Obama how often Vice President Joe Biden comes to a meeting in a wet bathing suit.
"We had to stop that," jokes the President. "I gotta say, though, he looks pretty good."
Later, during a discussion of changes the administration has made to the wiretapping program, Obama told Stewart, "They aren't sexy issues."
When Stewart responds, "You don't know what I find sexy," Obama is quoted as saying, "I know what you've been reading," in reference to an earlier segment in which Stewart talked about erotic bestseller "Fifty Shades of Grey."
There is not yet video of the exchange, but Gossip Cop will update when it becomes available.

The old trend with the Park City High School boys' lacrosse team was that it would have a great regular season and then falter in the playoffs.
This year's Miner squad is aiming to change that perception.
After a 13-9 quarterfinal win over Bingham, the Miners traveled to Juan Diego High School to take on Davis in a semifinal match.
Though the game turned into a battle, when the dust settled, the scoreboard read: Park City 10, Davis 6. Park City coach Andy Langendorf credits a strong first half for helping the Miners hold off a strong opponent.
"The plan was to jump on them early and create a lead," he said. "We came into halftime up 7-2 and pretty much in control."
In the second half, the Miners wouldn't give an inch against the physical Darts.
"It turned into a really scrappy affair," Langendorf said. "We traded goals back and forth and there was constant pressure on everyone all the time."
But Park City wasn't caught off guard, matching Davis goal-for-goal and hit-for-hit.
"That's what we expected it to be like," Langendorf said. "Davis is an athletic team and likes that scrappy style."
Carson Dutkanych led the Miners in goals, scoring three on the evening. Kolton Atkinson and Chad Merrick each added two and Jackson Burton, Chase Flinders and Ryan Smith each chipped in one.
Christian Pompoco dished out a pair of assists to lead Park City in that category.
Burton also dominated the faceoff circle all game long, winning 16 of 19 for an 84.2 percent win percentage.
Sheridan Buchholz had a good game in goal, stopping five of the 11 shots he faced. But the defense more than held its own in front of Buchholz, keeping Davis from getting too many good scoring opportunities.
Langendorf said the Miners' plan heading into this year's playoffs was a little different than in years past.
"One of the things that we did as a coaching staff this year is we decided not to make a lot of adjustments heading into the playoffs," he said. "That was a key for us. There was a lot of pressure on us in this game and we didn't deviate from our system or our plan."
The plan has worked so far, and now the Miners will have a shot at redemption. Currently on a seven-game winning streak, Park City's last loss came at home to Herriman by a 14-10 score.
Now the two teams will take to Dozier Field again, this time with a state title on the line.
Langendorf said his team is excited for the opportunity to play for a championship, but he knows it'll be tough to take down a team of Herriman's caliber.
"Anytime you play in a state championship game, anything can happen," he said. "We're expecting the same sort of game out of them. They're extremely athletic and a really big team. We definitely cannot get into a dogfight with them on a physical level. We're going to try to play a stylistic game and not get pulled into a physical game with them."
With the girls' lacrosse team gunning for a state title on the same day, Langendorf said Saturday should be a lot of fun.
"If we can win a championship at home, how amazing would that be?" he said. "And if we can double up on state championships, I assume that would be a first in the state of Utah."
Langendorf's assumption appears to be correct. Dating back to 2000, when the earliest records became available, no school has won both boys' and girls' lacrosse titles in the same year.
Saturday's title game begins at 7 p.m. at Dozier Field.

Direction Battlefront II Is Going
So, do you like the direction Battlefront II is currently going?
I think it's going in an ok direction. But there are some items that I don't like:
Space Combat- When I saw the two new videos, I was a bit disappointed. I really didn't like that the capital ships weren't moving an inch, and the interiors were generally the same for the Mon Cal cruiser and the Star Destroyer, save for the color. And the Calamari cruiser itself... really didn't look like one at all.
~Ships-The ships themselves were pretty good, but I didn't like it that the TIE Interceptor
had missiles
. Also, for the transports, the Empire had the shuttle seen in Episode III (???), and the Rebels had
the Repiblic Gunship
. Maybe the developers put those in because they didn't finish the transports fot the Galactic Civil War in time for the presentation, but I really hope that changes.
Maps-The maps shown just seemed too small. Esepiaclly on Geonosis, it just seemed like two bunkers on a flat plain. Hopefully the map is just for the campaign.
Heroes-Way too many heroes. This is a grunt game, and while I can see playable Jedi (as they were in the first game) included, but Princess Leia? Woo, blaster pistol and thermal detonaters,
just like a Rebel trooper
. I really, really hope you can turn heroes off in single and multiplayer.
I know I come off like a whiner, but I really think these are some big issues. But enough about my opinion; what do YOU think of Battlefront II's current direction?
you may:

California just crowned its high school basketball champions last weekend in Sacramento. One thing is very clear -- to win the California CIF State Basketball Championship, you better be a private school. Seriously, it is glaring that we need a separate championship, one for public schools and one for private schools.
Here is why. Combined there were 10 divisional championships for boys and girls. Of the 10 games played, nine were won by private schools. The only public school victory was the boys Division III championship where Alemany High School of Mission Hills defeated Sacred Heart Cathedral of San Francisco 71-67.
If you are a hoops fan, this has to be your favorite time of year. There is no sporting event more exciting than the NCAA Basketball Tournament. To win, you must play about seven games. Any loss and you are done. At least there is a playoff system.
Imagine how exciting a playoff arrangement would be with NCAA D I football? It works with all the other divisions: D-II, D-III and NAIA.
Congratulations to Fresno State being host to the 2012 NCAA women's basketball regionals. The bad news, attendance was sparse. It has been the story since the inception of the $115 million dollar Save Mart Center. It is sad.
It wasn't that long ago you couldn't get basketball tickets to Selland Arena. Now, the few basketball season holders can't give them away. Fresno State has said they would like to host an NCAA regional men's event, possibly in 2015. Good luck. If the NCAA sees the lack of support from the fan base for the men's program, the poor attendance for the women's regional, along with the lack of decent hotel space, it is highly unlikely Fresno would ever see another regional. But we can hope.

The NBA has suspended Washington Wizards power forward Nene for Game 4, for head-butting Bulls' Jimmy Butler in the fourth quarter of Game 3.
The incident happened with just over eight minutes remaining as Nene leaked out in front of the Bulls defense to score on a layup. The basket closed Washington's deficit 78-76 and led to a timeout by the Bulls. As Nene was making his way back up the floor after the basket, he gave Butler a shoulder nudge to clear his path. Butler took exception and shoved Nene's arm away and then gave him a shove of his own.
The two ended brow to brow with Nene seemingly forcing his head into Butler's. With Nene leaning forward, Butler pushed back and Nene cusped the back of Butler's head with his left hand, and as teammates of both rushed in to get between the two, appeared to throw an open-handed right in Butler's direction.
Butler received a technical on the play, but didn't respond as aggressively as Nene did.
"I didn't want to get ejected like he did," Butler told reporters afterwards. "I can't back down from anybody. That's just not in me.
"I didn't think it was that serious but obviously he thought it was. I was just saying 'Watch all that. It's uncalled for.' But I'm not mad at him. He's a competitor. I respect the guy."
The Bulls still trail the best-of-seven series 2-1 and a chance to reclaim home-court edge, with Game 4 on Sunday

The buzz today is about the 16-year-old Kylie once again doing something she is not old enough to do, that is give someone a tattoo, according to MSN Wonderwall on May 13.
Kylie was caught on tape donning gloves and putting her initials on Miles hand with a tattoo pen. While at a recording studio with her big sister Khloe Kardashian, she may have come up with the idea to battle the boredom. Whatever her reason, Khloe's little sister played tattoo artist and marked up her buddy's hand.
Apparently a real tattoo artist was on hand because Miles had a hankering to get inked. For some unknown reason Kylie decided to join in with Tattooist John Petro and give Miles a design out of her own head, which ended up as her initials. Is the young Jenner marking her territory?
The New York Daily News reports on May 13 that Kylie "branded" her friend as Khloe Kardashian and her boyfriend French Montana "looked on." You can see Kylie's handy work on the video above, which may be incriminating to the under-age tattoo artist wannabe.
California state law doesn't allow anyone under the age of 18 to tattoo flesh. Kylie's handy work was caught on tape and MSN suggests that she could be in hot water if police get a look at the tape and decide to cite her on this.
She could get $1,000 fine and have a misdemeanor on her record if she does have to answer for her actions to the law. Do you really see that happening? While shootings, robberies, home invasions, drug selling and identity theft is running rampant, do you really see police dispatching a car out to pick up Kylie Jenner for carving her initials into a kid's hand? Probably not!
The real concern here is why would this kid let Kylie tattoo her initials on him? It won't be long before the young man is looking to have them removed or re-created into the initials of another girl. This event reporting also suggests that celebrity news was hard to come by on Tuesday when this story broke. Does anyone really care that Kylie Jenner put her initial in some kid's hand? Other than Miles' parents and possibly another girlfriend, probably not!

A chemistry set for tiny chemists
These tiny and rather cute pieces of glassware are keepsakes from the days I used to do research as a chemist. Actually, I never used them and although they are real laboratory items, I can't imagine who would need such tiny vials.
The marks on the beaker indicate that it is Pyrex and has a volume of 1 ml.
All I need to complete the set is some equally small test tubes. Then I will be ready to do some big chemistry.
Note added later: I found the original box for the tiny vial with stopper in the 2nd and 3rd photos. It is a "weighing bottle" to use to accurately weigh very small amounts of chemicals, usually solids. This is how I learned to do it way back when: First, you dry the empty bottle to a constant weight, then you add the substance to be weighed in it and place the bottle in a desiccator until its weight stops changing. The difference between the weight of the empty bottle and the bottle plus the substance will be the weight of the substance. The bottle is capped with its tight-fitting stopper when it is outside the desiccator so that moisture won't get inside. This particular one was manufactured by Arthur H. Thomas Co. in Philadelphia (catalogue No. 9977-D).

Norman Reedus isn't so sure that his "The Walking Dead" character, loveable redneck Daryl Dixon, is going to find love with cold-blooded killer Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride). But is Norman luckier in love when it comes to real life?
During a Feb. 23 interview with the New York Post, Reedus said something that will please the rabid groups of female fans who sport names like Norman's Nymphos and Dixen's Vixens – the actor revealed that he's single once again. Reedus broke a lot of hearts last December when he was photographed holding hands with a 20-year-old model named Cecilia Singley. However, it looks like that relationship was just the kind of fun fling that actors get to enjoy once they get really famous. "I'm pretty single in all areas of my life at the moment," Reedus told the Post. "I'm like that weird old cat lady." His cool black cat, Eye in the Dark, probably enjoys the company.
Norman Reedus might not be dating a woman half his age in real life, but some fans of "The Walking Dead" are wondering if he'll hook up with a much-younger woman on the show. After the prison battle, Daryl Dixon ended up separated from the rest of the group along with Beth Greene (Emily Kinney). Daryl and Beth even have their own celebrity portmanteau name: "Bethyl." This sounds like some kind of chemical compound that could be effective in knocking out a field full of walkers. But who needs chemical gases when you've got Daryl and his trusty crossbow?
Reedus already told TV Guide that Beth and Daryl aren't going to get romantically involved, but their relationship will continue to evolve as they're forced to spend one-on-one time together. So fans who ship "Caryl" can still hope that the most eligible bachelor on "The Walking Dead" will give his Cherokee rose to Carol. However, when asked about the possibility of a Caryl romance, Reedus didn't seem to think that it would be a very good idea. "They're both really damaged people," he said. "But I don't know, [Daryl] hasn't hooked up with anyone at this point. It is the end of the world, and I think you get love where you can find it." According to Entertainmentwise, Reedus also told fans not to expect any "Twilight"-style scenes if his character ever does get lucky. "The thing about that is, I really want to play him sort of- he's not the type of guy that's gonna like, throw you up against the tree in the moonlight," he said during a recent appearance on "LIVE With Kelly And Michael."
If any ladies are interested in romancing Reedus in real life, there's something they need to know about the star – don't expect to get a backwoods action figure like Daryl Dixon. "People think I'm this angry, surly, ready-to-start-a-fight guy, but I'm kind of a pussycat," he revealed. "I'm kind of a wimp. I don't like confrontation at all, anywhere. I don't even like to watch other people have confrontations." He also revealed that he's a fan of onesie pajamas that look like cats, so now his admirers have a new wacky item to send him (he has enough breast implants, ladies).

Sheriff Grady Judd and the Polk County, Fla., sheriff's office were awarded for a firm and proactive stance in the war against shoplifting. The Florida Retail Federation presented Sheriff Judd a handsomely-inscribed plaque honoring the Polk County law enforcement agency and its cadre of deputies for a consistent and unwavering program dedicated to defraying the enormous costs stemming from retail theft.
The inscription on the plaque reads: "Outstanding Dedication to the Pursuit of Justice and the Investigation and Arrest of Retail Crime Groups," recognition in view of how the Polk County law enforcement deputies went after and brought down several large-scale and highly-organized retail theft syndicates.
Recognizing the importance of quelling such thievery and maintaining the economic integrity of businesses in Polk County, Sheriff Judd and his law enforcement deputies have proactively enforced retail theft statutes, not merely looking at it as a mere misdemeanor but the tremendous scourge which costs consumers more at the cash registers.
"It's not 'just a misdemeanor'", said Sheriff Grady Judd in a press release in response to receiving the Florida Retailers Federation award. Millions are law-abiding, hard-working consumers pay millions more at the check-out registers, largely stemming from the loss due to shoplifters.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd summed it up well when he said the following in a sheriff's office press release after receiving the award on March 12, 2014: "Retail theft is a crime which costs retailers thousands of dollars each year, ultimately costing consumers more for merchandise. The partnership between retailers and law enforcement is important for Polk County businesses and for our residents. We are working together to make thieves accountable for their crimes."
The aforementioned quote posited by Sheriff Judd on behalf of the Polk County Sheriff's Office is a befitting statement demonstrative of a law enforcement agency's convictions and proactive approach to combating the monumental costs of retail theft...and a well-deserved award in the hands of those who earned it.

Entrepreneurs are excited by their technology and they should be. They create reasons to explain why everyone should be excited because it helps sell the ideas when raising capital and it helps convince consumers to buy products. The generation of a story about the company and products is a great way to relay information to investors and retain their attention. The same type of storytelling occurs when explaining problems or failures that occur with the technology or the company. However, there is a fine line between presenting ones rationale as to how an issue occurred and a factual reason backed up with data. Facts can stand on their own and can be backed up by data or solid information that can withstand a diligence review. A hypothesis for the cause of a problem may sound good but is not yet confirmed by data and it may or may not prove to be a fact in the end.
It is common in research to develop a hypothesis to explain a phenomenon. The next step is to develop a solid study to evaluate whether the phenomenon may be explained by solid data. Proving the hypothesis occurs via valid studies. Once confirmed, the facts allow one to conclude the phenomenon is a valid explanation. Entrepreneurs often run into problems when they draw conclusions about an issue without supporting data to confirm the conclusions. They may or may not be correct in their assumptions, but a presentation of any hypothesis to investors may be misinterpreted by them as fact. This may lead to unrealistic expectations and future problems if you are wrong about the explanation.
All investors are not likely to be knowledgeable about the technology and issues a company faces. They will have different backgrounds and be able to follow a story, but their ability to discriminate between hypothesis and facts of any given situation will vary. Investors tend to hear the story and process it according to their own backgrounds and educational experiences. This translates in some hearing a story and believing it without questions while others may understand the caveats and need for further testing and validation.
It is critical for entrepreneurs to understand situations and determine the causes as it relates to their investment. Sometimes there is more than one reason a problem may occur. The contribution of each factor contributing to a problem has a bearing in determining how to repair the problem or prevent it in the future. It is very easy to assume a cause and proceed without evaluating whether the assumption is accurate. Failure to confirm validity may allow for future issues or failures. When this occurs, presenting new stories to investors will be complicated because they assumed you knew what you were talking about when presenting the last unconfirmed story.
To avoid confusion, it is a great idea to look at any problem and try to understand the reasons a problem occurred. Sort the potential causes into areas where some type of testing can be used to confirm whether the potential cause is contributing or not. Once you eliminate those reasons not supported by data and confirm those that are supported, use the data to back up the conclusions reached. It is much easier to show the data leading to the conclusion and create a solid story than have to continue explaining problems over and over again because you missed the real reasons in the first place!

College Hockey:Ex-Northeastern women's captain McCann named Salve Regina head coach
Salve Regina has tabbed Beth McCann as its new women's head coach.
McCann founded the University of Rhode Island club hockey program and has served as its only head coach since 1999.
She also led the initiative of the ACHA to create the women's National Select Team Development Camp and Program. The culmination of that effort was the inaugural participation of the ACHA women in international competition in France in 2010.
A two-time ACHA Coach of the Year (2005, 2008), McCann coached her Rhody squads to nine titles (304-128-26; .660 winning percentage) during 11 years of participation in its regional league, the Eastern Collegiate Women's Hockey League. They also had nine ACHA final four appearances.
"Having participated first-hand in some of the early history, and growing pains, of women's ice hockey, I have become a passionate advocate and voice for the female scholar-athlete," said McCann in a news release. "I have endeavored to do so in a way that promotes fairness and collaboration among university administrators, men's program leaders and USA Hockey executives so that the end result is a win-win for the sport, the athletes and the universities."
McCann was also a former NCAA Division I player and captain at Northeastern.

Chik-Fil-A Master Plan:$150 of food for $25
It normally costs our family over $20 to eat there, so I took our 1 meal budget and turned it into over $150. Here is how.
1. Go buy a $25 gift card and get 1 calendar for free
2. Now use the $25 GC to buy 4 more calendars @ $6 each
3. You now have 5 calendars for the price of one family meal out!
4. Cut out all the coupons right away and start using them. NOTE keep in your wallet or car otherwise you will never have them when you need them.
5. Donate the couponless calendars to a local school or daycare for teaching purposes.
*Each calendar has over $30 of free food = $150
The Math: $150 – $25.44 (you spent) = $124.56 savings this is why I LOVE Chick-fil-A. I am going to do this deal 3 times … sounds nuts but I bought only 6 last year and by summer time I was wishing I had 10 more. : )
Double check with manager on the coupon rules at your location. Make sure they let you use them any month not just the month the coupon states and see how many you can use each visit. Like I said St. Aug has it made on both of these. : )

Rebecca Ferrer, PhD NCI returns to UCONN on Thursday March 27th to will present a lecture on "Affective Science Perspectives on Cancer Prevention and Control Decision-Making."
Ferrer earned her Doctorate in Social Psychology from the University of Connecticut in 2009, with a certificate in Quantitative Methods, and holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Decision Science from Carnegie Mellon University. She completed a Post-Doctoral Cancer Research and Training Award Fellowship in the Office of the Associate Director in 2011.
Today she is a Health Scientist/ Program Director at the National Cancer Institute Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences, Behavioral Research Program, Basic Biobehavioral and Psychological Sciences Branch. Her program of research is concentrated on social psychological processes in health-related judgment and decision making, and behavior change.
Rebecca Ferrer is particularly interested in examining the associations among emotion and cognition, including how emotion might moderate the association between cognitions (including social cognitions) and health behavior. This program of research reflects a multidisciplinary approach, drawing from the fields of decision science, social psychology, and health psychology. In addition, Ferrer's work has focused primarily on cancer prevention behaviors such as nutrition, physical activity, and cancer screening, as well as HIV preventive behaviors such as condom use. She is also actively involved in the NCI's Theories Project, which aims to identify and execute research that will further the field of health behavior theory, including critical thought about and comparison of theory, integrative theory testing, and integration of theory into health behavior change interventions.
The lecture will take place in Video Conference Room 204 on the second floor of the Ryan Building at 2006 Hillside Road at the University of Connecticut in Storrs from 12:30pm-1:30 pm, and may also be viewed live during or after the lecture at http://www.chip.uconn.edu/lecture-3-27-14.

For someone who seems to idolize Stevie Wonder as much as he does, John Legend has never really come off as much of a risk-taker. The old-soul R&B singer has branched out on occasion, like on his 2008 hit dance-pop excursion "Green Light," but he hasn't done much to really stop you in your tracks with its boldness. That's what makes Legend's recent cover of Adele's "Rolling in the Deep," performed entirely a capella by Legend, such a pleasant surprise—the fact that it actually sounds legitimately surprising at all.
Legend's voice sounds as strong as it has in a while upon the song's introduction, which launches into him singing the song's first verse without any accompaniment. Halfway through the verse, Legend enters in support of himself, providing hmmms and ahhhhs to augment his lead, but cuts out for him to go solo on the song's unforgettable "We could have had it aaaa-lllll!!!!" chorus lead-in. It's on the chorus that Legend really impresses, his voice strained by the extended high notes, a shockingly raw and impassioned sound that's far from the comfort zone that we've become used to with Legend.
Were we on the American Idol set right now, this cover would certainly fall into "Took a Risk and It Paid Off" approval territory, avoiding the dreaded "Stay in Your Lane" line of criticism. John Legend just might make it into the Top Ten after all. And guess what pop star he's decided to take on next…

QPR outcast refuses to rule out permanent Charlton switch
12:40 03 October 2012
EMPICS Sport
QPR's Rob Hulse has hinted he would be open to making his three-month loan deal at Charlton permanent when the transfer window re-opens in January.
The 32-year-old sealed a temporary switch to The Valley on Monday having been frozen out at Loftus Road.
Hulse made his first appearance for Charlton as a second half substitute in their 2-1 Championship defeat to Watford on Tuesday night.
The former Derby County and Sheffield United striker is looking forward to putting his QPR nightmare behind him and returning to regular first team action with the Addicks.
When asked if he would be interested in a permanent transfer to Charlton, he said: "Well, maybe. Anything can happen really."
"I'm just here to get back to playing football again and Charlton have given me the chance to do that.
"I'm very grateful so I'm going to do the best I can."
QPR splashed out on 12 new signings during the summer and it was made clear to Hulse that he didn't fit in with their plans when he was omitted from their Premier League squad and made to train with the youth team.
"It's an unusual situation," he said of his parent club.
"We got promoted and a lot of new players came in.
"In the summer there was a new influx of [players] again and it's made pretty obvious that I wasn't going to be part of the plans.
"But that's fine, that's football."

Rudmann-Maurer, K; Weyand, A; Fischer, M; Stöcklin, J (2008). The role of landuse and natural determinants for grassland vegetation composition in the Swiss Alps. Basic and Applied Ecology, 9(5):494-503.
Full text not available from this repository.
View at publisher
The Alps provide a high habitat diversity for plant species, structured by broad- and fine-scale abiotic site conditions. In man-made grasslands, vegetation composition is additionally affected by the type of landuse. We recorded vegetation composition in 216 parcels of grassland in 12 municipalities representing an area of 170×70 km in the south-eastern part of the Swiss Alps. Each parcel was characterized by a combination of altitudinal level (valley, intermediate, alp), traditional landuse (mown, grazed), current management (mown, grazed, abandoned), and fertilization (unfertilized, fertilized). For each parcel we also assessed the abiotic factors aspect, slope, pH value, and geographic coordinates, and for each municipality annual precipitation and its cultural tradition. We analysed vegetation composition using (i) variation partitioning in RDA, (ii) cover of graminoids, non-legume forbs, and legumes, and (iii) dominance and frequency of species. Species composition was determined by, in decreasing order of variation explained, landuse, broad-scale abiotic factors, fine-scale abiotic factors, and cultural tradition. Current socio-economically motivated landuse changes, such as grazing of unfertilized former meadows or their abandonment, strongly affect vegetation composition. In our study, the frequency of characteristic meadow species was significantly smaller in grazed and even smaller in abandoned parcels than in still mown ones, suggesting less severe consequences of grazing for vegetation composition than of abandonment. Therefore, low-intensity grazing and mowing every few years should be considered valuable conservation alternatives to abandonment. Furthermore, because each landuse type was characterized by different species, a high variety of landuse types should be promoted to preserve plant species diversity in Alpine grasslands.

T-Mobile has already announced that the HTC one will be coming to its network for $50 down and monthly payments. AT&T will reportedly opening pre-sales on April 4 online and April 5 in stores. The device will set customers back $249.99 for the 32GB version in either black or silver.
The 64GB AT&T exclusive will be available at a later date and will come in at $299.99. Of course, both devices come with a two-year contract at the listed prices. Meanwhile, a leaked RadioShack ad suggests that Sprint will have the HTC One available for $199.99 and that it will come with a $50 Google Play credit. This could be a RadioShack-only price and Sprint could use the same pricing as AT&T. The Google Play credit is likely a RadioShack-only promotion.

Barry Hinson
Nov. 15, 2012
By Dustin Carlisle
CARBONDALE, Ill. - Southern Illinois (1-0) will host NAIA Benedictine-Springfield University (0-5) in the home opener at SIU Arena on Saturday at 7:05 p.m.
Head coach Barry Hinson met with the media on Thursday to talk about the game with Benedictine and the recently announced recruiting class.
Q: "How has your team handled prosperity?"
"Well, we won't know that until Saturday night. Do you realize that Saturday night's game, which is only our second game, will be the last game we're favored in for the rest of the season? I've never had a team like that. So, after Saturday night's game, were going to be the underdog in every game we play from that time on and that's an unusual situation to be in. I don't know how we're going to handle the roller coaster situation until we've actually gone there, and I'm telling you I am not Nostradamus, but it's coming. I told my staff this morning the thought for today's practice is to practice like we just got beat, because if we even as a staff or even as fans take anything for granted, we're really going to set ourselves up for disappointment. So, there is going to be a burning desire for us to get better."
Q: "How well have they practiced this week?"
"Well, we have only practiced once. We got back Tuesday. We came back immediately after the game so we could go to class and we gave them the day off because of NCAA rules and also for academic reasons. We had a decent practice yesterday. Not great, but it was a teaching practice and a stop and go type of practice. We are all ADD, including the head coach, so it's hard to stop and go, but it was a decent practice. Not anything I would put on the marquee board."
Q: "What does getting Dantiel (Daniels) back mean for your team?"
"I think he makes us better as a team. He is going to drive us nuts defensively, because he's got nowhere near the athleticism or the east-west quickness that he needs right now. He could not guard anybody on the floor, because he's just not ready to put tension on that groin. At the same time though, just having him down on the low post and being an offensive threat helps us, and I'll tell you right now, we are not going to be nervous when he is at the free throw line. I think you're going to be amazed at how much this young man has improved. We've worked with him a tremendous amount. I've told him you're going to shoot air balls, you're going to miss free throws, but we are not going to have that young man going to the free throw line and everybody holding their breath, and when he makes one cheering, because it's not fair to him to put pressure on himself as well. Believe me, he's got a mental block right now about that right now, and I think we've made major strides. So, I think people are going to be impressed with the improvement he has made on the free throw line."
"You know what, I don't know. I really don't. I think what we will do is play him off and on, but we can't let him sit very long. If we do, we risk the injury with cold. So we have to make sure when he's out of the game, we put him right on the bike, and that's kind of a problem on the road. We have to make sure we can have a bike on the road like we did at New Orleans. We would have played him at New Orleans if we felt like we actually had to have him, but when it comes to our players, I am extremely cautious when it comes to their health."
Q: "How important is it for you to get off to a good start Saturday?"
"I think it's always important to get off to a good start, but it's not as prevalent as what you have to do on the road, because when you're on the road, you're by yourself. When you're playing at home, you got a crowd here that if you don't get jump-started, believe me, I have only been here for two games, but I know our crowd will jump start us if we don't get started. I'm curious to see what kind of crowd we have. I don't think we will have quite the crowd I would like to have, but I think when we come back after Thanksgiving break when we play Fresno State, I will be extremely disappointed if this place (SIU Arena) isn't three quarters full."
Q: "How much have you worked with them on conditioning this week?"
"You know what, conditioning for us is practicing. I don't like blowing my whistle and have guys run up and down. I can do that. I want those guys running up and down with a ball in their hand passing and guarding at the same time. I think that's how you get into shape. You practice and play to get into shape. Conditioning has not been a factor for us with our team as a whole. Its only been a factor for the guys returning from injuries. It will take Dantiel two weeks. I don't think Dantiel will be able to play more than a three-minute stretch. Now, depends on what happens if there is a foul, dead ball, and timeouts then the three minutes can be stretched out to six minutes.
Q: "What do you have to do to cut down on turnovers?"
"In our defense, two of the factors for our turnovers were guys who have never played a college basketball game and one that had not played in a year and a half. I think that had a whole lot to do with it. You take those scenarios out and we're pretty level about where we were. That was also a game that was really a wild game. If you remember right, there was not one dead ball. I tell you what, that's really hard to throw a bunch of young guys in right off the first game and have to go through that, but to do that and still win by 17. The most impressive stat that we had is we won by 17 points on the road with 28 turnovers. That's an unbelievable stat. That's the most turnovers I have had on any of my teams in 32 years."
Q: "Do you expect Benedictine to press the whole game?"
"They have shown the press and they've shown the press trap. Hopefully we will be better prepared than what we were at New Orleans."
Q: "Can you share a little bit about your recruiting class of 2013?"
"We ended up signing five young men. I am very excited about that. I think when you sign a recruiting class what you want to do is you want to get a blend. You want to get a blend that helps you not only as basketball, but also off the floor academically. We felt like we helped that. We've got two junior college players and three high school players. This is one of the things I told our staff when I first got here. We want to recruit players who now how to win and who have come out of programs where they've won. Two guys at Three Rivers Community College that in my opinion has the greatest junior college coach of all time -- Mike Balogun from Western Hills California that plays for one of my very best friends who I went with at Oklahoma State. Hunter Gibson also out of Three Rivers Community College who played at Putnam City High School Oklahoma, which is also a place that has won state championships over and over. Jordan Martin comes from the St. Louis area at Hazelwood Central High School and comes from a winning program there from a well-coached school. KC Goodwin is out of Memphis, Tennessee that is playing on a nationally ranked really good team and also plays for another good high school coach. Then Sean O'Brien out of Mundelein High School up in the Chicago area that has a winning program. When I throw out all of those intangibles I think that's a pretty good blend. Now, are they the answers to all of our questions? Absolutely not. The three freshmen coming in will have to get used to our system. The two junior college players are going to have to get used to our system. They're going to have to buy in on what we do and when we get those guys around here in June, it will certainly help us."
Q: "How does that add up by adding five players with only three seniors?"
"I know how you guys work. This is all I'm going to tell you. As a fan and as the media you're going to have to trust me that I know what we're doing. I was hired to turn this program around and we're going to do that the right way. Not only did we sign players for 2012 to 2013, we are also thinking about further than that for the 2013 to 2014, 2014 to 2015, and the 2015 to 2016 range. If you let me worry about the math and you guys cover the guys we sign, you, me, and the fans are going to get along really well."
Q: "Who is the best offensive player out of the five recruits?"
"I don't know that. I hope they're all good offensive players. I mean we certainly signed guys that have good offensive skill sets, but I don't want to over-hype these guys. I have never seen a recruiting release that says we signed an average class. I don't want to put any expectations on these players, that are unfair to those guys. We evaluated them. We evaluated them very hard and watched them play many times. We watched them on film and we made phone calls to high school coaches. We talked to principals, counselors, and advisers. We talked to administrators. We do our background check on every one of these young men, but you never know. You jut never know, but I like our recruiting class. I really do and I think they are going to make us better. I don't think you have a recruiting class where you just go in and just say `well we signed a bunch of guys, but I don't know if that will make us better or not.' I don't want to sign anybody that doesn't make us better."
Q: "Is it important for you to sign somebody from Illinois?"
"It's real important for me personally, because I want to sign somebody from Illinois, I want to sign somebody from the Oklahoma area, and I want to sign somebody from the St. Louis area. I really want to sign somebody out of Memphis, I want to sign out of Nashville, I want to sign somebody out Indianapolis, and I want to sign somebody out of eastern Kentucky. I think that's important to us."
Q: "What's kind of position are you looking for next year for 2013 and 2014?"
"Well, I think when you see our need right now, we need perimeter players that can shoot and we need big guys. I didn't think we would have to recruit any of our big guys, but because of what's happened with our injuries, we just thought we've got to add more depth to our rotation at the pivot and we think we are going to have to do that."

Now available on VOD is the third entry of the popular Nazi Zombie franchise Outpost Rise Of Spetsnaz. Continuing the story in an almost prequel type of way we run across a group of elite level Russian soldiers who become captured by the evil Nazi regime. After failed experiments of their own soldiers not taking to the mind control device they they think they may have found the answer in these strong willed recruits. The Spetsnaz has other ideas as the movie becomes a battle for survival to make it out of the sinister laboratory. In my opinion this is the best film of the franchise as it is both smart and combines the right amount of story and action to make it a solid addition. The film stars Bryan Larkin (Battleground) as the leader of the infantry and the one man in the way of stopping the experiments. He does a great job of holding his own in the film though the performances of the rest of the cast are up to par.
I really enjoyed the fighting scenes in the film that are both intense and brutal. Fans of zombie and war movies will really get a kick out of this production. If you have seen the first two films then this is a must see as it does the task of telling how it all came to be. I got a chance to speak with director Kieren Parker who also wrote and produced the first two films. We spoke about how the franchise came to be and why he decided to take over the directing duties for the third entry.
How did you create the original Outpost idea and make it to the third movie Rise of Spetsnaz?
The Outpost idea came from my head. It was a short film idea that I created. The first film was written as an idea for a short film scheme and it was pitched as a unique kind of psychological supernatural action horror movie. About Nazi's and about Nazi's policing hell of American soldiers that had committed war crimes. That film never went anywhere but the pitch, the idea this unique sixth sense kinda stuck in my head.
So I started writing more ideas and eventually after I had a few pages I started talking with my then girlfriend now wife. She produces films and she was like alright lets do a movie but what kinda film could we make. So she presented her idea that she had and I presented the idea that I had. We both decided that even though my wife is not a genre head she knew that the idea that I had had commercial legs. So we got together with Steve Barker and he was gonna direct my idea then we got this young kid named Rae Brunton to be the writer on board. So we got together and made the movie for about a million dollars and Sony pictures bought it. It spawned a sequel which did incredibly well in the UK, on DVD and sold well in the US. So while we were shooting the second movie we had these amazing incredible sets. We had a deal with the warehouse where we didn't have to take the set down. So while we were shooting the second film we just decided we were going to start shooting the third film. Steve who did the first two movies didn't want to do the third film so I decided i'm gonna step in and direct this one.
The idea came from my head, I produced the first two films, and knew the world inside out. I understood the right and wrongs of the first two movies. So we tried to fixed up the third film shot it last year and it turned around pretty quickly.
How long did it take to film the initial convoy trap in the first scene of Outpost Rise Of Spetsnaz?
Well we shot exteriors for six days, and then we shot the rest movie in a total of 28 days.
So you are saying that most of the idea of the third film came from knowing you were going to be able to use parts not seen in the second film?
There was an awful amount of stuff used in the second film and when you are shooting the movie you know you have a certain amount of money to spend. In the case of the Outpost films where all the interiors are effective because we had the set standing. So what we had was a world that we could re use. So we went back into that world where the second movie ends in that big warehouse area. So we had a lot that we didn't use in the second film. To put it this way in the second film we had about 300,000 on the set, and for the third movie we spent about 50,000. We took a load of stuff from the second movie and recycled it for the third film.
At the end of the day what I love about the horror genre is that if you look at the movies across history horror movies have the chance to be the low budget overachiever which is what I really love about it . People who are involved in horror movies are the most creative bunch of filmmakers that are out there. They think on their feet and the films that they make can be quite demanding as far as sets and location, action and all that stuff. It takes a lot because most of us do have work off our feet like how can this work what do we do, because I have to make the audience believe this. So we recycle shots and do as much as you can for as little money as possible and I think it shows why some of the most talented filmmakers have worked in horror.
So what was substance that Bryan Larkin pulled the tooth out of and placed in his mouth and how did that scene develop?
Well it was a combination of rubber bits and probably tomato chunks. He had to be able to eat it I really wanted Bryan to be ok with it. I spent a lot of time with Bryan and we were incredibly lucky to have him while making the film. Bryan should have had a role in the second film but it didn't work out. So he was already in my mind for the third film. I offered it to him as soon as we knew it was going to happen. So he was involved in a lot of the creation of the movie. So when this idea of him eating the tooth, and picking up all the guts and all. He just had to be man enough to chow down on it. We laughed so much at that, it's just one of those nice moments that you could say "of course you would pick up freshly exploded human brains and stuff them in your mouth!" When he ate it it's almost as he relished and really got into it. Nothing was a problem for him
What stands out the most to you about the Outpost franchise as opposed to other popular zombie series out there?
I think the thing for us was we , not slighting any of the other zombie movies, aside from like Peter Cushing's Shockwaves, there hasn't been any other Nazi zombie movies. Excluding Italian sexplotation films. I think we there first after the trap which we were happy with. So no one would have the idea to say we were jumping on the back of some other movie that was not our idea in the first place. I think also we also knew that we wanted to play it straight. We never wanted to camp it up. We never wanted to make it more gore over content. We wanted to put character into it to make it interesting. We wanted to make something a little more involving. I use the term thinking mans horror a lot. I don't think we could ever be accused of over expoiting the Outpost franchise, becuase I think the three movies are each their own individual film. It's not just receyled off one idea. So I think that is something we will always stand by and be proud of. The fact that they are smarter than your average action zombie movie.
I would totally have to agree with Kieren. Outpost 3 is a zombie film that I could watch with my grandfather if he was still alive. It's more than just a horror film and for sure on the early short list of must see horror films of 2014. I can't to see what's next from the Outpost series!
Outpost Rise Of Spetsnaz is available now on demand. It is directed by Kieran Parker and stars Bryan Larkin, Iván Kamarás, Michael McKell. It is being distributed courtesy of XLrator Media.

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
clutter, declutter, organization
Could there be a better way to start the new year than by creating a clean, uncluttered space for yourself? Whether you plan to attack your entire house—really clearing space for the new year—or just a room, it helps to have a plan. This week, in celebration of a fresh new year, we're giving you all the advice you need to clear the detritus from your life and start anew.
The following tips are from my book, Simply Imperfect: Revisiting the Wabi-Sabi House, which will be released in paperback by New Society in April.
• Don't try to unclutter your entire house at once. Start with a drawer or a shelf and move on to problem areas (such as the garage or the basement) once you've had some smaller success.
• Maintenance is key. Spend fifteen minutes per day cleaning up daily detritus before it becomes overwhelming.
• Take everything out of a drawer or closet and spread it out in front of you. You'll eliminate more and organize what's left more efficiently if you can see it all at once. (This also gives you a chance to clear out the dust and run a damp rag over the surface.)
• Mark four boxes or bags "Keep," "Give Away," "Throw Away," and "Hold for One Year." (The last one's for items you don't need or use but just can't bear to part with yet. If you haven't touched these things in a year, their time has come.)
• If in doubt, throw it out. Give it to Goodwill or any of the charitable organizations who send trucks around to collect it. Or give it away on Craig's List. Nothing moves faster than the stuff in the "Free" listings.
Ample storage helps contain clutter. Photo By ooh_food/Courtesy Flickr.
• If you can't find a good home for something, it's time to say farewell.
• Get rid of two items every time you buy a new one.
• Keep like items with like: cups, baking goods, candles, etc.
• Allow only three items on each surface.
• Cover only about one-tenth of a table; use objects of differing sizes.
• Just say no to refrigerator magnets. They encourage clutter.
• Keep windowsills clear of knickknacks and potted plants.
• Keep clutter contained. Use baskets and bowls to collect mail, pens and pencils, loose change and all the other odds and ends that collect on counters and tabletops.
• Storage is key to containing clutter. Storage areas should make up at least ten percent of your home's total square footage and be placed so that you can store items where they're used. (If you can't get rid of the stuff, hide it well.)
• Furnishings that do double duty as storage help minimize clutter. A wicker chest holding blankets can serve as a coffee table in the TV room; a small chest of drawers makes a great end table.
Happy cleaning! We'd love to hear how clearing clutter makes a difference for you.

Found last Sunday, on Extra Credit at Noble -- one red anodized Dangerboy Maple Leaf lock-on handlebar cap (half of a $20 pair). Found along with about 35 cents in loose change, next to a big rock step ( I walked that one --- riding solo...), at the edge of the drop-off. If you own it, hope you didn't get hurt too badly! Pretty good scrape on the anodize -- maybe you want it for a badge of honor. Let me know and I'll mail it. I'm keeping the 35 cents. I earned it.

This seems to be the beginning of a trend for the Denver Nuggets as they once again come up short in yet another close battle. Bringing the game within five points with 1:28 left to play, the Nuggs had a fighting chance. But as the Nuggs allowed both Charlotte Bobcats stars' Kemba Walker and Al Jefferson to get to the free throw line and make jumpers; the game was put out-of-reach.
It's gotta be hard for the Nuggets to swallow these past two losses, as they were leading by four points the other night against the New Orleans Pelicans with just 40 seconds left to play and managed to let that one slip away as well. However, the Nuggs are not completely to blame for this loss, as Al Jefferson has been having a career month in March thus far, boasting an average of 28 points, 10 rebounds while shooting 61 percent from the field in the last six games. Not to mention his 38-point, 19-rebound effort against the defending NBA champs, the Miami Heat, which most people won't remember because some guy named LeBron James dropped 61 points.
But it seems as though the Nuggets can't consistently produce a collective effort from the entire team, as only one player broke the 20-point mark in last night's loss (Ty Lawson). Now the Nuggets don't necessarily need every starter to drop 20 points a game, but double-digits is a must. And only two Nuggets' starters managed to do that last night.
This is not the way the Nuggs wanted to start off their five game road trip. Hopefully they can take care of business tomorrow night against the Orlando Magic before they face two extremely tough tests against the Miami Heat and Atlanta Hawks before returning home to face-off with the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Nuggs better get it together quick or the end of the season could be a dismal one in the Mile High city.

Janice Hahn Files FEC Complaint Over Hip-Hop Attack Ad
By Lora Neng
June 20, 2011
The third-party political action committee Turn Right USA's hip-hop ad attack of Janice Hahn raised the ire of many women, not least of which is the 36th Congressional District candidate Hahn, whose face was superimposed on a stripper's body in the video.
The ad's questioning of Hahn's hiring of gang members as intervention specialists through derogatory imagery elicited immediate denunciation from both Democratics and Republicans. "This video is outrageous. Sexist ads like this are one of the reasons more women don't run for political office," said National Organization of Women President Terry O'Neill. "Every candidate must make clear to their funders and their supporters (and not with a wink-wink) that sexism and racism are not acceptable campaign tactics. These types of abusive attacks aren't just harmful to candidates like Janice Hahn, but to all women."
Los Angeles City Council member Janice Hahn claims that Turn Right has ties to her opponent Craig Huey through a former volunteer and that the organization was in violation of the FEC's rule that a "Super PAC" is not allowed to raise unlimited funds from private donors when coordinating efforts directly with political campaigns.
Huey's office denied connections to the film, as did a statement in the video. The one person who seems satisfied with the whole kerfuffle is filmmaker Ladd Ehlinger Jr., who said Huey missed an opportunity to point to "a kernel of truth" in the message. He was rather pleased with the buzz the controversy has helped reap for his viral campaign.
