Do you know what is required when the credit union wants to advertise its loan products? In this session, we will cover the trigger terms and associated regulatory requirements for closed end loans and open-end lines of credit both on the consumer and the mortgage loan side. There are also specific requirements if you have an application online that can be used to apply for a credit card or a Home Equity Line of Credit. In addition to Truth in Lending, and Equal Housing Act requirements, we will also spend time understanding the new implications caused by Dodd-Frank's Unfair and Abusive and Deceptive Acts and Practices and how it will impact your marketing and promotion of the credit union's loan products.
Speaker: Mary Lou Heighes CUCE, is President and founder of Compliance Plus, Inc. Mary-Lou has been involved in the credit union movement since 1989. She spent 5 years working in credit unions, in almost every position. Like many credit union veterans, she has worn many hats - loan officer, marketer, collector, and the all-encompassing OTHER DUTIES AS ASSIGNED. That background made for an easy transition to the Research and Information Department at the California Credit Union League where she spent 7 years providing compliance assistance through the Information Hotline and writing and editing TIPs bulletins advising credit unions to changes to regulations affecting credit union business.

Look Away Dixieland is a vivid portrayal of life during the Reconstruction following the War Between the States. Within these pages are heroes and scalawags, slaves and freemen, masters and servants. This is a hard-hitting tale, told the way it was - with negro dialect, class prejudice, and struggles to survive as they really existed - and throughout it all is the romance and elegance of the Old South.

A lot was expected of the Oakland Raiders last Friday for week one of the 2014 preseason against the Minnesota Vikings, since the team made major changes in the offseason. The results were not very impressive, but, like most games, there are always studs and duds in every game whether it was a victory or not.
The Studs
Third-stringer quarterback Matt McGloin was one of the studs for the Raiders on Friday evening against the Vikings. He was the only quarterback to score a touchdown. In fact, he was the only one to get a touchdown. While not super impressive, McGloin had the most passing yard in the game, 94 yards with no interceptions.
Another stud was running back Latavius Murray on Friday night. Murray ran for 28 yards in seven carries. Of course, that is not much, but it was the most out of any Raiders' running back. Murray also caught two passes for 13 yards. The reception stat is more impressive.
Running back Darren McFadden had a nice run of 23 yards, but it was his only run. This would still put him in the stud section since the Oakland Raiders were not very impressive against the Minnesota Vikings last Friday.
Oh yes, the Raiders' defense deserves to be studs. Those guys got scored 10 points in the first quarter, but shut every down after that. The defense got sick sacks and a fumble. The Vikings were completely shut down and had not answers on how to get more points.
The Duds
Quarterback Matt Schaub was a dud on Friday night against the Vikings. Schaub was very bland and boring with the 7 attempts to throw for yards. On top of it all, being the starting quarterback, he was the least impressive with 21 yards total. If things persist the same for the rest of the preseason, Schaub could lose his starting position.
The whole offense for the Raiders was pretty much a dud. The offense only managed to score one touchdown, via McGloin who rushed for the touchdown instead of being a passing touchdown. The two-point conversion was a fail as well. Stats indicate that the Raiders were better than the Vikings, but, in the end, the Raiders could not score! That is a huge dud.
The Final Score
The final score between the Raiders and the Minnesota Vikings was 10-6. It was a low-scoring game, and it was a very bad performance by both offenses. It was only the first preseason game so it is not time to panic yet. Knowing that it was the first preseason game is the only good thing that is riding for the Oakland Raiders after Friday night. Hopefully, things will look more promising in the next game against the Detroit Lions. Until the next game, just win baby!

Dukes Win In Overtime
JMU Downs Tribe, 27-26
Posted: October 13, 2012
HARRISONBURG - As Jakarie Jackson left the post-game press conference Saturday night, the James Madison safety politely said "Ya'll have a good one" to all assembled in the Bridgeforth Stadium press box.
He already did.
Jackson batted down a pass on an attempted two-point conversion in double time to help No. 4 JMU rally from a two-touchdown deficit and survive with a 27-26 win over William & Mary and move into sole possession of first place in the Colonial Athletic Association.
"I got the play from my defensive coach, executed the assignment and came out with the W," said Jackson, whose team snapped a three-game losing streak in overtime games.
After trading field goals in the first overtime after regulation ended with the game tied 17-17, JMU (5-1 overall, 3-0 in the CAA) scored on a 3-yard run by tailback Dae'Quan Scott go ahead 27-20 to start the second overtime.
The Tribe (2-5, 1-3) answered, scoring on a 7-yard pass from Raphael Ortiz to wide receiver Tre McBride — a play originally negated by an illegal touching penalty. But the referee ruled that it was not McBride who went out of bounds and came back in.
On the next play, Ortiz rolled out and looked for McBride — who had seven catches for 79 yards and touchdowns — in the end zone on the two-point conversion, but Jackson, in a crowd of JMU defenders, knocked it away, giving the Dukes the win in front of 22,271 fans, many of which had abandoned game at that point.
"We practice that every week," said Ortiz, who went 14-of-23 for 177 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions. "They were in zone coverage. It was tough to fit in certain windows. [I tried] moving around in the pocket a little just so that maybe one of the defensive guys would shift and leave one of our three options open. … I just put it up for someone to make a play on it."
William & Mary coach Jimmye Laycock said he went for the win in lieu of forcing a third overtime with an extra point because he thought his defense was tired.
"We'd gone back and forth in the overtime and our defense had been out there so much, and if we kicked the extra point, we were going to have to go back out there again and play defense," the 33rd-year coach said. "I just felt like it was kind of a gut feeling. I thought we had it; we just didn't get it."
Said JMU coach Mickey Matthews: "I certainly don't blame Jimmye for going for it. I like a guy that plays to win, and he was playing to win."
The Tribe should have won it regulation.
With 1 second on the clock, David Kuhn missed a 31-yard field goal wide left. It was his second miss of the afternoon, and coming into the game, Kuhn had made five of eight field goals this season. Saturday, the junior went 2-for-4, hitting from 39 and 38 yards, and missing from 43 and 31. Overall, W&M was 2-for-5 on field goals.

College Hockey:Minnesota Duluth Rocks Northern Michigan
Sharp Keys Bulldogs
MARQUETTE, Mich. — As they did last year, the Northern Michigan Wildcats and the Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs faced off in the Superior Cup Final, and once again the Bulldogs emerged with a shutout win, topping the Wildcats 5-0.
"We played a very consistent game from start to finish," Bulldogs' coach Scott Sandelin said. "We got the first goal and that's good. We took the lead, got a little headstrong and kept getting better as the game progressed. After last night's loss, we needed to play at a higher level, a higher pace. We needed to make better plays tonight and we needed to make better decisions with the puck, and I think we did that tonight."
"It was a pretty good game for us," said Bulldogs' center MacGregor Sharp, who scored the first two goals of the night. "Last night, we didn't have a good game and tonight we came out, got our legs under us and tried to start the season right. It's always nice to get an early goal there and get the lead and as the game went on we just got stronger."
The Bulldogs put away the first goal of the night a mere 2:17 into the game. Mike Connolly and Mike Montgomery gave the puck to Sharp, who put it past Wildcats' goalie Brian Stewart on his glove side.
"MacGregor is a guy we've got to count on this year," Bulldogs' goalie Alex Stalock said. "He's been putting up good numbers since he's been here. He had a good night tonight. He shot the puck, got to the net, and you can't ask for more than that."
The Wildcats had several opportunities to score, but couldn't manage to capitalize on any of them, including a double rebound that led to a minor patch of roughing just over seven minutes in.
Five minutes and three penalties into the second, the score remained 1-0 in favor of the Bulldogs, even though the Wildcats outshot them 13-6. Sharp put the puck past Stewart's right shoulder at 12:57 to increase the Bulldogs' lead.
"MacGregor Sharp had two goals for us tonight," Sandelin said. "He's one of those guys that just leads the team. He's a senior that we count on."
Sharp doesn't take all the credit.
"Connelly's a great player," Sharp said. "I can't say enough. He found me a couple nice passes and made it pretty easy for me to get those goals."
"We kept the gas pedal down all the way through the second, kept building on our lead," Stalock said. "We had good opportunities all night and just as a unit, as a whole, we were playing together as a team, not as individuals. It's great to see."
Twenty-four seconds into the third period, Bulldog Andrew Carroll took a penalty for contact to the head roughing. Teammate Drew Akins took a tripping penalty 58 seconds later to give the Wildcats a two-man advantage for an entire minute. However, the Wildcats couldn't capitalize.
"Our special teams were great tonight," Stalock said. "We killed five-on-threes and five-on-fours all night and then on the other end our power play was great. The guys were zipping the puck around and putting pucks on the net and we got a couple goals."
Wildcats' rookie Tyler Gron took a holding penalty at 4:03 in the period. The Bulldogs used the power play to their advantage when Akins banked a shot of the right post and into the net to put the Bulldogs up 3-0.
"I hate the three goal leads," Sandelin said. "They don't feel safe. I remember last year we were up 6-1 and the game ended up 6-4. I knew Northern has some good offensive players that could make that difference."
At 8:11, the Bulldogs bumped their lead to four when Jay Cascalenda fed the puck to Jordan Fulton, who shot the puck across the front of Stewart and into the top left corner of the net. Akins scored again at 14:22 with assists from Justin Fontaine and Evan Oberg a mere second after they ended a power play to push the Bulldogs up 5-0.
Stalock had 29 saves in the shutout win.
"I just wanted to be square to every puck and come out and just be ready and challenge the shooters and make them shoot at me and make some saves," Stalock said. "I tried to control my rebounds."
"He's been here for a couple years now and we really rely on him," Sharp said. "He always steps up. He's a great goalie and a great part of our team."
"Stalock was huge in the five-on-threes," Sandelin said. "Our players did a great job but you need great goaltending. He protected the shutout, gave us the chance and kept us in it."

Q&A with Michael Keen of ASG Software Solutions
VSM: As a new contributor to Virtual Strategy Magazine, can you give our readers an overview of ASG Software?
MK: ASG Software Solutions was founded in 1986 by Arthur Allen and is a provider of professional services and software solutions for the complete range of enterprise software, all the way from the chip to the cloud. Since inception, ASG's mission has been to offer real value in the marketplace. What differentiates ASG from other companies is our ability to offer an enterprise view into any environment. ASG solutions are platform agnostic and can work with what's already deployed.
ASG operates globally, with over 70 offices around the world. Our solutions are used in 85% of the Fortune 500, including many of the world's largest banks, airlines, retail establishments, governments and medical and manufacturing companies.
VSM: You recently announced major upgrades to your flagship CloudFactory product. What are the key upgrades to this technology?
MK: In version 7.1 of CloudFactory, we introduced several new features, the first of which is increased functionality with the introduction of SAML support in CloudCockpit. With this key functionality we can now provide Single Sign-On to external cloud services, like Salesforce.com, Office365, and Google. The value of this feature for private cloud users is that ASG can now federate CloudFactory instances making location aware delivery of services possible. We've also integrated CloudFactory with ASG's core product offering, the Enterprise Automation Management Suite (EAMS), to provide availability aware capabilities for those services. From the Hosting Provider perspective, this SAML support makes the delivery from public or private cloud environments possible without end user intervention and enables 'cloud bursting' to external resources when internal resources cannot support 100% of the demand. This functionality is being driven again by the integration of ASG core technology EAMS.
In order to ensure a solid user experience on legacy browsers and devices, and to provide access to applications and other resources under any condition, ASG also now provides support for legacy browsers including IE6. In addition, ASG has introduced a browserless agent with OneTimePasscode integration for a seamless user experience. With the introduction of ASG's new CloudShaper product we now support the ability to create virtual machines from scratch by integrating CloudShaper with vCenter making this a "one stop shop" for all infrastructure deployment and management. CloudShaper also provides the ability to deploy all types of Linux OS versions. Our CloudRobot product is also coming out with additional workflows for Exchange 2010, Sharepoint 2010, and Lync 2010. We have also increased the performance by 4x to 6x on the creation of users, customers, and resellers within our workflows.
Finally, in order to make it easier for our customers to use, we've introduced integrated dashboards to provide users with a single-pane-of-glass view to their personalized cloud services, in addition to an Amazon-like interface and service catalogue, which makes it easy to order and manage assets.

No. 21 Arizona vs. No. 19 Cal, No. 22 ASU and Washington
Saturday, March 22 // 6:30 p.m. (PT)
Berkeley, Calif.
Live Stats HERE
BERKELEY, Ariz. - The No. 21 Arizona women's gymnastics team will compete in Session II of the Pac-12 tournament on Saturday, March 22 at 6:30 p.m. PT in Haas Pavilion. The Wildcats are ranked sixth in the conference.
The night session will include No. 5 Cal, No. 7 ASU and No. 8 Washington. Arizona has already competed against ASU and Washington this season. In the fifth seed, Cal will begin on vault and continue in Olympic order. Arizona will begin on bars before moving to beam, floor and then vault.
"As of this moment, all eight Pac-12 teams are slated to be in the postseason," head coach Bill Ryden said. "We have an incredibly strong conference. It will certainly be a close competition. I feel like we're a different team than we were when we saw the two teams. We haven't seen Cal this year, but they're doing great."
"Every single one of our events is ranked higher than our entire team is ranked," Ryden added. "It goes to show that our problem has been putting together four rotations. If we can put together four decent rotations then I like where we are going to stand. The team is focused on doing the job and not stressing about it. The numbers tells what we are capable of. Sometimes we try too hard and that comes and bites us. This week is to be ourselves, have fun and be successful. We are going to look at it like a quad meet and show everyone what we're made of."
Session II consists of the teams that are seeded 5-8 as determined by the NCAA Regional Qualifying Score (RQS). The team's RQS is calculated on the team's six best regular-season meet scores, three being from an away competition. Arizona begins post-season competition with a RQS of 196.035.
The remainder of the Pac-12 teams will be in Session I, which will begin at 1 p.m. with Utah, UCLA, Stanford and Oregon State competing. At the completion of the meets, the final conference standings will be determined. Both sessions will air live on the Pac-12 Networks.
Follow @AZGymnastics on Twitter for up to date information and live updates. Live stats will be available on the day of the competition.

California - The Golden Bears are a relatively young team with eight freshmen and three seniors making up their roster. Cal is coming off of a win against UC Davis, 195.675-194.950. The Golden Bears are coached by Justin Howell, who is in his second year as head coach of the program. Howell has had an instant impact on Cal gymnastics, and he was recognized as the 2013 Pac-12 Coach of the Year and the NACGC West Region Coach of the Year after taking his team to the 2013 NCAA Regional competition for the first time since 2007. The last time the Wildcats and Golden Bears met was Jan. 6, 2013 when the Cats took third (194.825) to Cal (195.425) and Kentucky (195.125).
ASU - Their team consists of 16 girls, including one senior and four newcomers. ASU is coached by four time Pac-10 Coach of the Year, John Spini, who has led his team to the NCAA tournament 21 times during his 34 years as head coach. His career at ASU has made him the longest tenured head coach in school history, and his team's 196.175-195.00 win over Northern Illinois last Friday marks his last home meet at the helm of the program. The Sun Devils are 5-5 on the year, and the last time these in-state rivals competed was earlier this year on Feb. 22 when the Sun Devils beat the Wildcats, 196.125-195.350.
Washington - The Huskies feature six freshmen and one senior, Aliza Vaccher. They are coming off of a second place finish to Oregon State (196.250-195.375) and a win over Seattle Pacific (193.125). The last time the Huskies and Wildcats met was February first earlier this year. Arizona won the meet 196.500-195.175, and Shay Fox and Allie Flores both set season highs on beam. The Huskies are coached by Joanne Bowers who has brought her team to the NCAA regionals all seven years she has been there.
Look Out for New GymCats:
The Wildcats added a number of new faces this season, including two Arizona natives, Krysten Howard out of Phoenix and Selynna Felix-Terrazas from Tucson. Gabby Laub hails from Owasso, Okla., while Mackenzie Valentin comes from Mustang Okla. Also added to the roster is former gymnastics manager and Plano, Texas, native Shay Fox. All of these gymnasts were top J.O. competitors and should make an immediate impact in the lineups this season.
Pre-season Rankings:
The Arizona gymnastics team heads into the season ranked No. 17 in the 2014 Women's Pre-Season Coaches poll. The Wildcats are one of eight Pac-12 schools to place within the top 25, including No. 4 UCLA, No. 6 Utah, No. 9 Stanford, No. 12 Oregon State, No. 20 Washington, No. 22 California and No. 25 Arizona State.
Complete pre-season rankings can be found here: http://www.troester.com/gym/Wrankings/2014/WcoachesPoll.htm
Stacked to the Max:
The Arizona gymnastics team is going to compete against one of the toughest schedules in the nation. According to RoadtoNationals.com, Arizona's strength of schedule is ranked No. 8. Of the 12 regular season meets and 16 regular season opponents, the Cats will face eight ranked teams. Those opponents include No. 3 Oklahoma, No. 4 UCLA, No. 5 LSU, No. 6 Utah, No. 9 Stanford, No. 12 Oregon State, No. 20 Washington, No. 21 Kentucky and No. 25 ASU.
Ryden's Record:
Head coach Bill Ryden finished out the 2013 season with an overall even record of 220-198-3.
What's Coming Up:
Upon the completion of Pac-12 Championships, regional qualifying will be determined. NCAA Regionals are set for Saturday, April 5 with locations to be decided.

Jaws of death
Jaws of death is a term coined by trader Larry Williams that describes when a situation when equities are rising while bonds are weakening.
Expanded Definition
Williams observed a phenomenon that happens when equities and bond prices diverge. According to him the disparity (which he calls the jaws) between the two tends to snap shut, hence he called the entire phenomenon the jaws of death. Usually the snapping shut action is achieved by a rapid and sharp drop in stock prices according to his model.

I have strange connection problems. Ping and download times are good - speedtest.net showed ping 65ms and download 2.17Mbps. Torrent is working well, giving me up to 300MBps.
Webpages are loading very poorly though. They are timing out each time - I'd have to refresh 4-5 times to get any simple page to load. It has been happening consistently for the last few days. Same with different browsers on different machines (same network), Windows and Linux. There is no proxy in the browser.
Is there any setting in Windows or in a browser that I can change to help this?
Some background: I live on this island in Thailand, where internet connection is through radio to another island and than to mainland - it's very weather dependent, but generally OK. As I mentioned, ping is good.
Any input is very appreciated.

Assistant coach Brie Berkowitz
Sept. 3, 2012
GREENVILLE, N.C. - As an East Carolina alumnae and a former track and field standout for the Pirates, Brie Berkowitz is excited to be back at her alma mater as the newest addition to head coach Curt Kraft's staff. Berkowitz's duties as an assistant coach will begin immediately.
The former student-athlete, who competed from 2003-07, will supervise the cross country distance runners, as well as assist in all aspects of track and field. As a student-athlete at ECU and two-time team captain, Berkowitz competed in the 400-meter hurdles and the pole vault. In fact, Berkowitz and her relay team of Lindsay Dolan, Lanaire Lindo, and Jaslyn Grullon still hold the East Carolina record of 1:01.59 set in 2007 at the Florida Relays in the 100-meter shuttle relays.
"We are very excited to have Brie back in Greenville and coaching on our staff," Kraft said. "Brie not only understands what it is like to be a former student-athlete at East Carolina University, but she also understands how special of a place Greenville, N.C., and ECU are. When you talk about East Carolina academics and athletics, you are essentially talking about Brie Berkowitz. She is a true Pirate in every way; earning her undergraduate and graduate degrees here in 2007 and 2009, respectively. We will not have to teach Brie how to be passionate, prideful, and enthusiastic. Those are all built-in qualities that Pirates have."
Prior to her return to East Carolina, Berkowitz worked at the University of Miami as the travel and events coordinator in the Hurricane athletic department. She also had stints working for the Miami Heat and Florida Panthers in their respective sales departments.
Berkowitz could not be happier to return to her alma mater, where she earned a Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education and a Master's Degree in Sport Management. While pursuing her graduate degree, the York, Pa., native worked as a graduate assistant in academics and as a volunteer coach with the track and field squad.
"I'm really excited to be back here," Berkowitz said. "I had an amazing experience as a student-athlete and it is especially meaningful to work side-by-side with people who helped me get to where I am today. I am hoping to bring positive energy and new ideas to ECU. Coach Kraft has done a wonderful job turning the program around for the better. What he has done with the team has been really incredible."
Having graduated just three years ago, Berkowitz feels she will have the ability to relate to student-athletes and help them excel and reach their full potential.
"I'm not that far removed from being a student-athlete, so I am looking forward to helping our current student-athletes go through their experiences and help them achieve their goals and move on from ECU."
With the fall season already in full swing and the Pirates first meet at the Seahawk Invitational in Wilmington, N.C., on Friday Sept. 7, Berkowitz looks to hit the ground running.
"I am extremely thankful to ECU for everything they have done for me and to the athletic staff for providing me this opportunity. It's wonderful to be here and to give back. I am very excited to see what the future holds."

"It's tough hiring good people. It's always a great testament to a person if on his resume it says he is a Greek." ~ James Bucksdale, CEO Nestscape Communications
Duquesne's Greek Community is very dedicated to the enhancement of scholarship. Our chapters have regularly performed above the all-male and all-female semester averages. We not only excel scholastically, but also sponsor many events throughout the year to educate individuals on topics such as rape, drug and alcohol abuse, eating disorders, and other issues of concern to college students. We also offer scholarships through the fraternities and sororities, alumni, and Duquesne University.
Being Greek provides many different avenues and methods to excelling scholastically that may not be found in other environments or student groups. Each chapter values academics and many have specific programs and activities for those members who need the extra help with their courses. Each chapter has a Scholarship Chairman who is in charge of coordinating such events as study tables, scholarship dinners, college major study buddies, mentoring groups, and other scholarship programs and various awards for excellent and improved academic achievement.
The Greek Community also works with many university services such as the Learning Skills Center and the University Counseling Center who keep us informed on programs, workshops, and classes they are offering to students. Fraternities and sororities also provide an excellent study environment during the week, with many chapters having study hours and other related efforts to ensure an academic environment. There are always fellow Greeks in classes and more times than not you will find sorority sisters or fraternity brothers in your various classes, which are great resources for study groups.
Greek chapters are ranked by average all-Greek GPAs, and all chapters strive for the honor of having the highest chapter GPA. Rewards are given each year to the chapter with the most outstanding GPA, as well as the most improved. This promotes studying incentives and provides for friendly competition within the Greek Community.

text: When you're talking about a music festival whose inaugural event was literally wiped out by a typhoon, it can feel a bit petty to complain about the weather. All the same, campers arriving at Fuji Rock Festival in Naeba on Thursday last week might have hoped for a warmer welcome than the torrential downpour that greeted them. Though things improved as the weekend went on, the rain still managed to put a dampener on the proceedings, and might explain the muted reception afforded to some of the festival's biggest acts.

College Hockey:2007-08 Connecticut Season Preview
Last year, the preseason coaches' poll put the Huskies in fourth, surprising some people. But lo and behold, that's where UConn did indeed finish, earning home ice in the playoffs and a trip to Rochester.
"We'd had a tough season (in 2005-06) and lost 12 games in a row at the end," said coach Bruce Marshall. "But the coaches in the league knew we were better than that. We weren't the Bad News Bears."
This season, with the departure of Matt Scherer, Cole Koidahl and 10 other seniors, it's going to be a challenge to build on last year's success. Is it a rebuilding year in Storrs?
"If we're rebuilding, my assistants haven't done their jobs," laughed Marshall, in his 20th season behind the bench at UConn. "Seriously, they've done a great job of bringing in a great group of kids."
A total of 15 freshmen are on the roster, and Marshall hopes they can get up to speed quickly.
"Talent-wise we know they can play at this level," he said. "We like what we've seen in practice, but we'll really see what they can do in game situations. They'll need to adjust quickly."
A key to the Huskies' success last year was the emergence of goaltender Beau Erickson (2.92 GAA).
"He really established himself last season," said Marshall. "We were really pleased with the way he took over the starting job."
The Huskies' captains this season will be senior forward Charles Solberg and junior defenseman Sean Erickson.
"They lead by example," said Marshall. "They'll be key in bringing the freshmen along. Showing them how to work hard and doing the little things. Showing them what UConn hockey is all about."
The Huskies will again hold an in-season tournament, playing Army in a league game in the first semifinal, with Brown and Ferris State playing in the other.
"We're excited to get these teams in," said Marshall. "It's good for Atlantic Hockey to bring teams into our barns. We're seeing more and more of that and it shows the growth of the league."

"I'm not just a voice who wants to sing on anything. I co-produce, I want to select who comes in and plays on what songs, who to duet with and all of it." -Tyrese
Since the late 1990s, Tyrese has made his mark in a number of fields: as a model for Tommy Hilfiger and Guess?; as a Grammy-nominated singer, with albums Tyrese (1998), 2000 Watts (2000), and I Wanna Go There (2002); and as an actor in films like Baby Boy (2001) and 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003).
Tyrese's magnetism is no secret. He's appeared in Play..girl, and in 2000, People named him one of the sexiest men of the year. Even Tyrese's shaved head seems to be an asset: in an eonline.com poll, Tyrese finished a close second -- behind Bruce Willis -- in the competition for the most beautiful bald head.
For someone who was barely 20, these beginnings were quite the achievement. And Tyrese continues to make headway along his multiplex career path.
Yet Tyrese's wide range has had its downside. Accomplishing a little in many fields has kept him off the celebrity radar somewhat. While he's known as a model, singer and actor, he hasn't specialized enough to be well-known as one in particular. But Tyrese, at only 25, certainly has the time and talent to become really famous.
Tyrese BiographyTyrese wasn't always a first-name-only superstar -- he was born Tyrese Darnell Gibson in Watts, California on December 30th, 1978.
Tyrese grew up quickly in the Los Angeles ghetto, but in a positive sense: he was already singing when he was 14 and winning talent competitions, and counted future monomial star Brandy among his friends.
Not long afterward, Tyrese's foray into acting began -- although on a shaky start. In 1995, he went to an audition for a Coca-Cola commercial, landing the part even though he showed up over two hours late and had to beg to be heard.
tyrese, a model actor
But it was with modeling that Tyrese made his first splash, working for such big names as Tommy Hilfiger and Guess?. In between fashion shoots, Tyrese guest starred on a number of sitcoms in the late 1990s, including Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, Martin, Sister, Sister, and Moesha. In the latter he reunited with childhood friend Brandy.
tyrese hits it big with nobody else
In 1998, Tyrese landed a record deal with RCA and released his first album, Tyrese. Starting off with the hit "Nobody Else" -- written by Tyrese for his girlfriend to assure her that he wouldn't let fame steal his heart -- the album was a great success, going platinum by selling over a million copies and earning him an American Music Award for Soul/R&B Favorite New Artist. "Sweet Lady," another track from his album, was nominated for the Best Male R&B Vocal Performance Grammy Award.
As both musician and media personality, Tyrese next landed a job hosting the MTV Jams show and countdown, replacing former host Bill Bellamy. In spite of all the hard work and travel that it entailed, Tyrese was nevertheless committed to releasing his sophomore album, 2000 Watts, which was released in 2000. His third record, I Wanna Go There, was released soon afterward in 2002.
tyrese goes from platinum to silver
Right in the middle of a burgeoning singing career, Tyrese was poised to take Hollywood by storm as well. In 2001, he was cast in director John Singleton's Baby Boy, and Tyrese also sang the movie's theme song, "Just a Baby Boy" (from 2000 Watts), in collaboration with Snoop Dogg.
In 2003, he starred in 2 Fast 2 Furious, the sequel to the street racing action movie The Fast and The Furious. He's currently filming The Flight of the Phoenix, set for release in 2004, and has been cast as an undercover Los Angeles cop in the crime thriller Extortion, which is based on Tyrese's own idea.
Tyrese is also nominated for another Grammy for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for his hit single "How You Gonna Act Like That," from his album I Wanna Go There, for 2003.
Tyrese has become a multimedia success. Yet he never forgot where he came from and has donated his free time and money to helping underprivileged inner-city kids. He founded a charity organization, 2000 Watts, which has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars, and Tyrese also participates in Charity Basketball. So it doesn't seem that things will ever get too fast or furious for Tyrese.

I'm beyond relieved that President Obama has been re-elected…and that the right wing forces of darkness have been held at bay for another four years & prevented from running the most powerful nation on the planet.
In the midst of all this electioneering, I've been indulging in my love of The West Wing — the best TV show ever without the words "Doctor" and "Who" in the title. Many of the long time blog readers will know of this love, as I thoroughly reviewed the final two seasons…back in the misty dawn of electronic history. Recently, I've been zipping around episodes across all seven seasons…and rediscovering why this series filled me — continues to fill me — with so much hope and promise. Here's an example, from the season seven episode "The Debate", when Presidential candidate Matt Santos rails against those on the right who have made "liberal" into a slur:
Yes, a liberal Republican; Senator, what happened to them? They got run out of your party! What did liberals do that was so offensive to the Republican Party? I'll tell you what they did. Liberals got women the right to vote. Liberals got African-Americans the right to vote. Liberals created Social Security and lifted millions of elderly people out of poverty. Liberals ended segregation. Liberals passed the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act. Liberals created Medicare. Liberals passed the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act. What did Conservatives do? They opposed them on every one of those things, every one. So when you try to hurl that label at my feet, 'Liberal,' as if it were something to be ashamed of, something dirty, something to run away from, it won't work, Senator, because I will pick up that label and I will wear it as a badge of honor.
Then there are the moments of inspiration & divine…such as why we should explore Mars:
Cause it's next. Cause we came out of the cave and we looked over the hill and we saw fire. And we crossed the ocean and we pioneered the West and we took to the sky. The history of man is hung on a timeline of exploration, and this is what's next.
And the moments where simplistic views of real-world issues are dismissed, because everything that matters is layered in nuance & shades of grey:
When you think of Afghanistan, think of Poland. When you think of the Taliban, think of the Nazis. When you think of the citizens of Afghanistan, think of the Jews in concentration camps. A friend of my dad's was at one of the camps. He used to come over to the house, and he and my dad used to shoot some pinochle. He said he once saw a guy at the camp kneeling and praying. He said, "What are you doing?" The guy said he was thanking God. And my dad's friend said, "What could you possibly be thanking God for?" He said, "I'm thanking God for not making me like them." Bad people can't be recognized on sight. There's no point in trying.
When I'm in a low place…when I believe that the world can't possibly get any more cynical…any more depressing…any more frightening…when I think the stupid factor threatens to engulf the entire planet, with no turning back…I turn to The West Wing…and I remind myself that there is still glorious genius to be celebrated and shared.

He is, in Auburn football circles, a legend. But does that make him the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft?
Quarterback Cam Newton -- Heisman Trophy winner, national champion, leader of the undefeated Auburn Tigers -- may learn the answer to that question before the night of April 28, when the Carolina Panthers announce their choice, but for now fans will have to assume it is a "yes."
But a qualified "yes" to be sure.
The experts are divided less on the question of talent, it seems, than on character. In this year's draft there is one other quarterback -- Missouri's Blaine Gabbert -- whom analysts list as a sure-fire first-rounder, and then a handful of others who likely will clear the board before the end of Round 2.
Position series
Today, quarterbacks
Sunday, running backs
There is no consensus opinion that Newton or any other 2011 quarterback is that most coveted of prospects, the "franchise quarterback."
"The quarterbacks all have real flaws, every one them," noted draft analyst Mel Kiper said in a conference call earlier this month. "Normally there would be a guy where 75 percent of the people looking say, 'this guy deserves to be up there,' and this year that's not the case."
That is not to say anyone thinks Newton's extraordinary talent, or Gabbert's rising stock, is a myth. Charley Casserly, a former NFL general manager who now opines with the NFL Network, said Newton is a top-five pick, and so is Gabbert. In the past few drafts, Casserly said, he had quarterbacks Matthew Stafford and Sam Bradford, both of whom were the No. 1 overall pick, and Atlanta's Matt Ryan, a No. 3 overall pick, graded higher than Gabbert, but that he has Gabbert graded higher than the Jets' Mark Sanchez, who was drafted in the No. 5 spot.

Gabbert is something less than a known commodity, as he chose to leave Missouri early. In a draft in which Stanford's Andrew Luck was a consensus No. 1 pick overall but chose instead to return to college for his senior season, Gabbert catapulted to the lofty heights he occupies on most mock draft boards.
The spotlight, however, remains glued on Newton and Carolina. The Panthers have made it clear they are seriously considering him, just as they have thrown out hints about a handful of other players. Most reporters who cover Carolina believe Newton's name will be called.
Although some will disagree. In particular, Newton's draft status became controversial when Nolan Nawrocki, a draft expert with Pro Football Weekly, issued a blistering report. He excoriated Newton's work ethic and leadership skills, pegging him as a petulant athlete whose sense of entitlement exceeds his desire for championships.
Although Newton may have the rifle arm of Peyton Manning or one day be able to approach Drew Brees' accuracy, he lacks and has no interest in obtaining those priceless intangibles that have made Brees and Manning great quarterbacks -- at least, according to Nawrocki.
Predictably, Newton's camp ripped Nawrocki's assessment, led by hired adviser Warren Moon, who suggested there may be something racist in the harsh conclusions. But in conference calls and many media appearances, Nawrocki has not backed down from his criticism, insisting it was based on myriad interviews with people who know Newton well, although not, he concedes, with Newton himself.
Certainly a red flag or two flutters in Newton's public record. After leaving Florida, where he spent one season as a backup to Tim Tebow, and spending time at a junior college, his eventual signing with Auburn came under scrutiny toward the end of the 2010 season. Allegations that Newton's father had shopped him to the highest bidder were investigated by the NCAA, although the NCAA cleared Newton to play after Auburn briefly made him ineligible.
But even before that spectacle unfolded, there were whispers about Newton's character, as this exchange at the NFL combine in February makes clear:
"I've heard two things," an unidentified reporter asked about allegations Newton was a thief while at Florida. "That you did two things, that you did steal the laptop and that you did steal things out of your teammates' locker. Are either of those stories true?"
"Sir," Newton responded, "I'm going to let you know right now what I did in the past is in the past. My sole focus is to perform at this year's combine. I'm not going to entertain anything that happened in my past. I'm all about the future. I'm trying to prepare today to make my future as best as it can be."
At the same time, he insisted the whiff of scandal that follows him has only strengthened his resolve and ability to "make" that future.
"My biggest thing is everybody has a learning process that they go through," he said. "For me, that learning process happened three years ago, the mistakes that I made at Florida, the trials and tribulations that I went through at Blinn College, has made me the person that I am today. I can say with my chin high to the sky and say that, if I could do it all over again, I couldn't say that I wouldn't do the same things, because those same mistakes that I made at Florida now if that opportunity presents itself, I wouldn't do that, because I know what happens if you do the things that I did at Florida."
What he did last season speaks for itself. Newton threw for 2,854 yards and 30 touchdowns, with seven interceptions, and rushed for 20 scores. If his leadership in the NFL seems suspect, it did not seem so at Auburn, particularly when in a game that will live in SEC lore, Auburn overcame a massive deficit in Tuscaloosa and beat Alabama in the Iron Bowl.
Gabbert's statistics are impressive, too. In his career, Gabbert threw for 6,822 yards and 40 touchdowns, although his numbers as a sophomore in 2009 were superior to those he amassed last season.
Those statistics were compiled in an offense that uses the Shotgun "98 percent of the time," which means he will need work on some staples of the job in the NFL, such as taking the snap under center and the footwork tied to various drop backs.
"It takes more than what I did in college," Gabbert said when asked about professional success. "Talking to guys that played at high levels in college. I talked to Eli Manning, Josh Freeman, of course Chase Daniel, Sam Bradford. These guys were extremely successful in college, but it takes more in the NFL. It's a full-time job, and I realize that and I know that. And the best thing about me is I love the game of football. That's been my goal -- to only do football. And I'm going to be in the film room, going to be in the weight room, just preparing as hard as possible."
Thus, Newton and Gabbert, appear to be high first-round locks. Beyond them, speculation runs rampant. As ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay said this week, none of the remaining quarterbacks have high first-round grades, but should there be a run at the position, teams looking for a quarterback have a decision to make. Do they trade up and take a player higher than he grades out, or hope the guy is still around after the first round?
McShay and most others do not believe the following quarterbacks will be available after Round 2, or perhaps even very deep into Round 2: Jake Locker of Washington, Ryan Mallet of Arkansas, Andy Dalton of TCU, Colin Kaepernick of Nevada and Christian Ponder of Florida State.
Each has a question. Ponder, for example, has been injury prone. Dalton, though a proven winner, hasn't played in a pro-style offense. Mallet, a Michigan transfer, is dogged by character whispers and some bad decision-making in big games.
Still, there is no denying each of them has posted impressive numbers. Locker, for instance, was projected as perhaps the No. 1 overall pick had he come out after his junior season, but his stock sank during his senior year. But both he and Kaepernick flirted with pro baseball careers, and their size and athleticism are appealing.
Always expect the unexpected during the draft, but Newton and Gabbert will be gone quickly. How exactly the quarterback position shakes out after those two remains anyone's guess.

Debbie Rhodes repeats as shoe champ
Exclusively Online
The fine weather we've seen over the past few weeks has been matched by some equally fine horseshoe play at the Anna Maria horseshoe pits. Two teams advanced from the eighteen player pool on Saturday, 4/19, and the day's final match was completed in near record time. Trailing by a score of 9-7, Debbie Rhodes and Herb Puryear powered past Ron Pepka and Jay Disbrow with a barrage of ringers that propelled them to the winner's circle. Puryear threw two ringers, with Rhodes following with one of her own, and then watched Puryear repeat the feat, leaving their opponents shaking their heads at the 22-9 thrashing that had been handed to them.
It was equally exciting, the following Wednesday, when another eighteen players sent three teams into the playoff round. Puryear, teamed with Tom Rhodes, went down in defeat again, this time to Pepka and Carole Watson 23-14, as Watson posted three consecutive ringers to position her team for the win. But the duo lost 21-15 to Debbie and partner Steve Doyle in a seesaw battle that had all of the spectators on the edge of their seats.
Play gets underway at 9am. every Wednesday and Saturday, in the park behind Anna Maria's City Hall building, at the corner of Gulf Drive and Pine Avenue. Warm-ups begin at 8:45, followed by random team selection just prior to play. Plenty of free parking is available and all skill levels are welcome.

Washington vs. Utah
Post Game Quotes
Washington Head Coach June Daugherty
General Comments: "That basketball game was like burning the turkey on Thanksgiving. It was ugly, but sometimes you are going to have to win games like that. I am really proud of how our team buckled down in the second half, and came out with great intensity -- hustle plays. We were flying around getting stops, and forcing Utah to take some tough shots. It was a great win. A great win to beat a very good ranked team. Kim Smith is as good as advertised, and I am really excited for the team to be 3-0."
On defending their two All-Americans: "It is definitely by committee. We put some different size on them -- we put some smaller size, speed; we just tried to mix it up. That was the biggest, especially late in the game, you know they are going to go 3-point shooting, and we know that is their strength. That is why we have to get a hand up. They stretched us a little bit. Girls in the far corner are looking to throw it into the post. We just have to contest everything. They are just that good. We just kept working it, kept our intensity and pressure on the basketball up, and made sure every shot was contested. That was big for us coming down the stretch."
On playing against Utah: "Even though it wasn't the prettiest basketball game, we are going to control what we can control, and that is playing as hard as we can, and I thought we did that, especially in the second half. It gave us the game back. It got us into our running game. It got us running and jumping again -- getting down the floor. We had some spectacular plays. I thought Maggie O'Hara and Cameo Hicks had some unbelievable plays. Also the reverse by Breanne Watson -- it was fun seeing us stay with it, keep chipping away, and then the game came back to us. But Utah is a great team. They are really well-coached, and they have a lot of talent, with two All-Americans on one team. They are going to make us play this way. They are going to burn the clock up; they are going to stretch out defensively. They do a lot of great things. It is a test for us to stay sharp and keep things Husky basketball style, and don't get caught up in the pace that they want to play. First half we did, second half we got it back into our tempo."
On rebounds: "When I look down here I see 25 offensive rebounds for the second time in three games. And I think we got six or seven in the first possession. These guys are hungry. They are eager to get up there, and get a second shot, third shot, whatever it takes. One of the keys going into the game was controlling the glass, and being able to do that really paid off, especially with the shooting percentage we had going into the game."
On the tempo of the game: "We cannot control their tempo, and we cannot control what they are doing. We've got to turn it up on our end of things. We talked about it at halftime, about getting our intensity back up, and diving on the floor, start getting deflections. We had to start making things happen, so we can get back into our running game, and to get the tempo the way we wanted it, and I thought for the most part that we did that, and it is a great sign for this team."
On the offense: "That is one things that I was talking about earlier this week--our defense is ahead of our offense. I know the talented players that I have, and I know that the shots will fall. I like the fact that we went inside out, and ran inside out. We are going to keep doing that, we are going to keep playing our game. Like I said, the game will come to us offensively, but we are going to control what we can control, and that is the defense, the intensity, and the hustle plays."
On the 3-0 start:"I am excited for these guys. It is a very rigorous, challenging schedule. To go cross country like we did, and play back to back, and come home with those two victories, and turnaround and have those guys back here by midnight Sunday night, be back for class Monday, and a quick turnaround Tuesday, and then we are back out there. It is part of it. It is part of the schedule of the Pac-10 .We love it. Keep bringing them on. Every opportunity we have to go out and play, and to show what we are made of we are going to take it. Ranked or not ranked."
FORWARD Kristen O'Neill
On starting the season with three wins: "I'm just very proud of my teammates. I think everyone will look around in the locker room and the feeling this season as opposed to last season is just very different on the court. We do have a lot more experience and we're sticking together in times where last year we might have fallen apart or been affected more by other teams' runs. We're playing some great teams but it's just really fun to be a part of this team when you look out in your teammates eyes and everyone's so hungry and just wants to win and play hard for each other. It's something that's pretty special to be a part of. I'm excited we have three down and we're just looking to carry this momentum into the rest of our season."
GUARD Cameo Hicks
On rebounds: "I didn't really think I had fourteen rebounds. Every game I just try to go out there and crash the boards as hard as I can and sometimes it doesn't work out, but I guess tonight it did."
On Hicks scoring a lot of the points: "There are so many great players on this team; so many people that are capable of scoring that haven't necessarily done that yet. So, I'm excited to see other people step up and score because I know there are so many people on this team that can.
On the changes since last year: "We have so much leadership and so much depth and that's something we didn't necessarily have last season."
On Hicks' improvements this year: "Personally my biggest improvement that I've made is just my conditioning just trying to play hard and keep my intensity up for my team for forty minutes. I just hope to bring that intensity whenever I can.
On how she's gotten in shape: "I had a few minor setbacks this summer but I was able to condition and do a little bit of weights. All of us have been working hard all summer. We've all been committed to staying here over the summer and working out as a team.
On the way the team is ranked: "I think now they're changing their minds. We've definitely been working hard and it's been paying off. We haven't even really been shooting the ball really well or scoring as much as we can so we're only going to improve upon our previous performances. I'm excited to see how the Pac 10's turn out for us this year.
On the team reaching 600 wins: "Washington has a tremendous history especially with women's basketball. We kind of lost that last year just because we had some struggles with pulling out wins, but this year with our leadership and experience we've definitely had the knowledge and ability to pull out tough games down the stretch. I definitely think these last three wins that we got, I don't think we would have necessarily got them last year just because we didn't have the same skill and focus that we do this year.
On having beaten three credible teams: "That's just tremendous. It has given us a lot of confidence. The three schools that we've beaten have been very tough and they've all been in great leagues and as you know Utah was ranked, so it's given us a lot of confidence. We know that we can play with anyone and I'm really excited about that.

I haven't been taking iron, but I should. I may be going to Whole Foods tonight so I'll look for something then. I'd rather get a name brand than something from CVS. I keep forgetting to take my multivitamin, which has iron in it. They aren't worried because I'm not dizzy. The fatigue I'm feeling could be from any number of things.
I get confused about iron vs ferritin though. My doc tested my ferritin levels ages ago (when we were looking into candida overgrowth in 2011-2012) and a few times since then. They stay pretty low. I don't know if iron has ever been tested.
I read something today that reminded me how bad alcohol is for my mood. I wonder if it's possible for me to have problems with liver function without anything showing up on a test. Makes me wonder if milk thistle would do anything for me. It's hard for me not to look for an "instant cure" for all this stuff.
