Man facing 2nd Degree Murder in hit and run death of 8-year-old Kamari Smith
DETROIT (WXYZ) - The man who is facing a 2nd Degree Murder charge - in connection to the hit and run death of 8-year-old Kamari Smith - appeared in court Friday.
23-year old Cortney Shields is accused of hitting Kamari with his vehicle and taking off from the scene on May 19.
Kamari was at the corner of Robson and Eaton streets on Detroit's west side buying ice cream. After she bought it, witnesses say a silver Dodge Charger came barreling through striking Kamari.
A witness testified; "I hear a thump like... and I heard a lady say something outside the truck and I turned around and the only thing I could see was little Kamari landed on the hood of the car… and then the car slowed down a little bit and then took on off. "
Kamari died six days later at Children's Hospital.
None of the witnesses testifying on Friday could positively identify Shields as the driver.
A second defendant, 18-year-old Leonard Crosby is charged as an accessory after the fact.
He waived his right to a preliminary hearing and will be arraigned on July 25.
It came out in court that the Charger was actually rented to Leonard Crosby, but police believe Shields was driving. Witnesses testified that there appeared to be only one person in the car.
Shields will be back in court next Thursday morning at 11.
Crosby will be back in court next Friday morning at 9.

I finally settled on the Shield in July. I had called around and around for several days with no luck, but finally decided to gamble. You can get on a wait list almost anywhere, but if you decide t pay for it, you move to the top of the list at one of the largest stores in my state. So I paid for it. Ordered July 2nd, picked up September 1st.
Granted now a days that's asking a lot but it might work for you.
I currently have another unicorn on order so waiting for the Shield was a good exercise in patience.

I didn't know if she had a weapon or not, but I'd heard reports of here waving around a pistol in the past, so I knew she did own a weapon.
You didn't know for a fact that she had a gun. You only heard 'reports' she did. You admit during the confrontation a weapon was never displayed. You don't pull a gun on someone because they may have a gun.
She is in bad health, but I was VERY suprised at her rage: she was moving fast and was a lot stonger than I believed her to be. I've never seen a person so enraged and hell-bent. I knew that drawing the gun was the only way to make her stop.
That's my point...don't pull a gun as a deterrent to make someone stop yelling. If you pull it, better be prepared to use it. Against an un-armed fat/sick lady with diabetes? Tell that to the jury.
As to having to shoot her; I'd made up my mind to only do that if a weapon appeared. In the meantime I was ready to clock her in the mouth with the pistol if she kept coming.
The cop who did the report was sorry that she didn't enter so I could have shot her. I know that sounds awful, but it shows what a menace to society as well as to the police force she is. In court, the ENTIRE police force testified on my behalf against her.
She didn't enter? You said she "invaded your home". Had she entered you would have shot her? Unarmed,broad daylight knowing she was your neighbor?
Bottom line - the whole incident still bothers me and I don't know why she wanted to get inside and what she would have done. I've gone over it a 1,000 times in my head and I know that what I did was the right thing and the ONLY thing that stopped her.
Next time just walk away and close the door. That is much easier than going to court/jail.
Yes anytime you are threatened with grave bodily harm or in some stated property lose you use a tool that will stop that. In this case a gun.
Might have been on drugs too. Crazy violent people at my door are very close to death.
Yes If she had entered my home she was DRT Multiple attempts to tell her to leave my property. What other reason could she have to enter my home but to cause harm to me.
Next time call the cops as soon as she drives up and explain to her the cops are on the way and if you enter my house you will defend yourself to the fullest extent.
That is how I would answer the questions above.
I forgot to mention that she'd been committed a few times for going nuts on folks. She has also been arrested for drug dealing, shoplifting and using her kids to steal and deal. She's threatened numerous families [including mine] that she would kill them in the night and get away with it because she's insane...
Anyway... She's the one that opened the screen door while on my porch [she broke the latch lock]; I tried to shut it but we ended up in a tug of war. She's the one screaming that she's coming inside and that she doesn't have to listen to me. She then ripped out the entire screen and then geared up to charge in. Bottom line: she was coming in [in her mind]! If the screen door lock had held she'd have tore it out anyway. The front door is all glass and I wonder if she would have broken that in all her rage?
The gun made her stop. LEOs said I handled it well and agreed that if I'd hit her she would have sued me and a giant mob fisticuff would have occured on my porch - me against about 12 other people that followed her... No one got shot, no one got hurt and she was convicted.
The whole situation stunk and it bothers me that she had no regard for any rules or anybody. Interestingly, me knowing her past probably saved her life. I was not too suprised she came over with a 'war party' - it's her MO. What if I'd been new to the neighborhood and had no idea about this nut? It might have turned out worse...
I guess the misunderstanding between us is that just because a gun was pulled doens't mean I had to shoot it. I was defending my propery and family and the gun did it's job without hurting anyone and it was available if need be. I don't advocate brandishing, but I wonder how many crimes are stopped when a good guy draws making the BG flee? That's essentially what happened in my mind...
Two words: Less Lethal.
Get yourself some pepper spray or something that will keep her, or anyone else for that matter, away from you. A stream to the face will keep them occupied so if you have to put a boot to them to kick them back out of the doorway you can, or whatever you might need to stop them from entering or becoming an actual threat. If they don't stop at that, and continue on, then you have the option of a gun being the last resort.
I certainly don't understand why if she has been dealing drugs, endangering her children by dealing drugs and getting them to steal ect, she still has her children with her or why she isn't in jail.
Oh god lord no, you had no right to defend yourself he was the most polite mugger out there his track record shows it
I do not care how big, small, or what the gender is, if someone comes through a barrier to get at me I am threatened. No ifs ands or buts about it
Then I have been all wrong in my thinking. I have been under the assumption that if someone breaks into my house that they are there to do me harm. Otherwise they would have knocked. So now breaking in is not enough proof of intent? Now after they break in I must determine if they are armed? Once determining if they are armed am I then obligated to determine if the weapon they chose to bring is on the FBI list of weapons with adequate stopping power? Can I use my 45 against them if they only have a .380?Quote:
You didn't know for a fact that she had a gun. You only heard 'reports' she did. You admit during the confrontation a weapon was never displayed. You don't pull a gun on someone because they may have a gun.
Her being a loud-mouth and pushing her way into the OP's home does not appear to be reason to apply deadly force..? Possibly not (very grey area). The truckload of neighbors cheering her on and 'supporting' her behavior does represent a disparity of force and a mob scene that has a siginificant potential to get out of hand quickly. Wether they participated directly or not with the assult, tresspassing, and terroristic threats....... being out numbered, and his family in the house as well, warrents an escalation of force.
Now, I'm not a lawer or expert in AL state law but being unable to retreat, lock and/or secure his door at that point, and the significant number 'following' her lead...... my sidearm or shotty would've come out as well in a similar situation.
A mob mentality is as volatile and dangerous as a wind-blown brush fire............ JMO.
There definetly was no knock. When she saw me her first words were, 'There you are!' and she grabbed the screen door and tore it open. I pulled back and told her to get off the porch. It was tough trying to keep the door closed [tug-of-war], keeping an eye on her, keeping an eye to my 2 o'clock and her family and keeping an eye to my 10 o'clock at the pick-up truck all at once.
The truck was very bothersome as I had no idea whose it was and who was inside. All I could see was the shadows of at least four people in the cab. It was nuts!
At least nothing has happened again. The only thing they seem to understand is brute force and the law.
Yeah what a maniac. I've known, seen, and even been related to the kind of people that have some bizarre compulsion to assert their right to drag the rest of society down. The feedback here is nice when it feels like the echo chamber, but I'd be pretty apprehensive about sharing stories with potential legal ramifications. Sounds like you waited for convictions. I think you acted appropriately. When you saw the truck loaded up with Back-Up-Losers did you think about going for more gun?
Keep thinking about the guy beaten with brass knuckles, pipes, and paint cans in front of his house... while his sister watched instead of pulling out the AR/AK.
My biggest saving grace was that my neighbor saw her stomping my way and he knew trouble was brewing. He saw the whole thing and was my witness in court. She threatened him for testifying - pretty bad all around...

JWC TO THOMAS CARLYLE; 3 July 1849; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18490703-JWC-TC-01; CL 24: 90-92
Cheyne Row / Tuesday [3 July 1849]
Well! Here I am at home, my poor Dear; if home it may be called under the circumstances, but "it is fair to state" that the whole thing looks rather disgusting this morning, after the roses, and cream, and "wits" and other "blandishments" of Addiscombe— For the circumstance which is annoying me most however the poor Cheyne Row establishment is not to blame; but the other establishment, in many respects so superior—the letter which should have gone to you yesterday is not gone—when I took it to the Butler yesterday to be despatched to the post office, he looked as if I had proposed to him a crusade in the Holy Land—"nobody was going to Croydon"—wherever I applied, the same answer!— I would not go with it myself for I was already quite done with the Archbishops rough ground—and when I got to London it was too late—within a quarter of eight—and so you will get two letters together, that's all—
Bölte was waiting for me when I arrived in my cab (they put me into a cab at Vauxhall)1—and the "airs" from Chancellor's dunghill2 were a waiting me!— I really believe Lady A is right about that stable yard having a great deal to do with my nausea—when I felt it last night "with an entirely fresh NOSE," I wondered how we could live beside it, for the mere unpleasantness of [the]3 thing—to say nothing of health—I was not the least bit sick at Addiscombe—whatever else—and could eat like other people. This morning again it is the old story— But on Monday I shall wave my lilly hand to it (the dunghill) and cry adieu4—by Saturday I could hardly get ready but on Monday I must be off—I feel just now as if nothing less than my life depended on incessant movement in the fresh air—I sometimes wish you could know what a weight of physical illness I am carrying—that you might wonder less at the little way I make—but—"it will come all to the same utlimately"!
I think Miss Wynn must have been out of her mind yesterday—I found a note from her last night to "prepare me for not hearing from you so soon as I expected" Mrs Lindsay5 had told her these steamers "never kept their time by many days; so that the passengers were often short of provisions (!!)" she "thought it best to tell me this in case of my being uneasy"!! I shall really be relieved to know you on dry land again.
The Examiner is come as usual—was I to take any steps about it?— I send it on to your Mother this time— Moreover Elizabeth told me that "there is a new letter of Mr Oliver Cromwell for Master—which the gentleman who has it does not think is yet published"!!— "What Gentleman?" "a Mr Payne6 I think but I cant be positive—his letter might be something but I dont think himself was much!"
Hartman has been to paint me since I began this letter—Bolte begged so hard last night that I would yield her that "last consolation"— He was to come at eleven and kept his time for once—it is now after three—and I am painted—quite done with; "ThankS God"!—and an excellent little sketch he has made of me—I think—a side face again but the other side from Lawrence's—quite as sorrowful looking but hardly so severe— I must wind up anyhow—here has Darwin and Mrs Wedgwood been for near an hour—interrupting me— I finish in their presence that they may take my letter to the post office—how bothered I have been! not a step of exercise this day!
Ever yours /
Jane W C
You forgot t[o] mend me any pens and so you must take the consequences—

Often you hear parents discuss when, how long, and where their child naps. Many question, when is it a good time for their child to stop taking naps? Each child is born with their own internal clock, and as a parent it is difficult to learn how that clock ticks! When your baby is born, many think that their little one will sleep all of the time, some babies do and other's do not.
But how old should you little one be when naps comes to an end? Many think you allow you child to make that decision. It is important to realize that a child does not have the reasoning skills to know when and why they need a nap. Many children just fall asleep, other's thrive on a scheduled nap, while other's fight the idea of slowing down long enough to sleep.
This is when being a parent steps in. You as a parent must decide when naps are no longer necessary and/or feasible. Some parent's feel if their child naps too late in the afternoon, they do not go to bed easily at night. Other parent's realize their evenings can be very volatile when their child has not napped.
Each parent has to decide what they feel is best for their child as well as the family as a whole. There is no magic age when a child's body says, okay, I'm done with napping. Too often a child's mind is telling him that it wants to stay engaged in whatever is going on, and they don't want to miss a second. You can't blame a child for wanting to play but you do need to realize the consequences of how taking a nap or deleting a nap can affect a child.
During the transition time to stopping naps, a rest time is still important. A child has not learned how to slow their bodies and mind's down. That is where you create a transitional environment. Thirty minutes with a few books in their bed with their cuddly will allow a time of rest and replenishment for your child (it also allows the parent's a few quiet moments too). Use a timer that you have shared with your child. When the timer goes off, rest time is over. At this time both parent and child come back together, with mind and body moving at a slower pace.

Top Republican political strategist Mary Matalin, who served under President Ronald Reagan, was campaign director for George H.W. Bush, and was an assistant to President George W. Bush says House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is doing a "Kabuki dance."
Pelosi has been quoted as saying the Republicans are "wasting their time" using the Affordable Care Act as a campaign issue, while speaking Friday on "The Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV.
Matalin said, "It's all a Kabuki dance. Obviously, they are scared and they're trying to scrounge off a strategy and they've come up with, let's see Obamacare on the offense and attack Republicans. Do you think anyone is listening to Nancy Pelosi?"
The House Minority Speaker dismissed Republican newcomer David Jolly surprising victory against better known Democrat Alex Sink in a special election for Florida's 13th Congressional District last Tuesday.
Jolly's driving theme in the race was the utter failure of Obamacare.
Matalin was impressed by this year's Conservative Political Action Conference held outside Washington, DC. "I don't see anything in the midterm elections that would portend anything but a positive outcome for Republicans," she told Maltzberg.
Alluding to the CPAC Conference she said, "You saw a very deep back-bench of intelligent, articulate candidates, would-be candidates or incumbents who can carry that message. I was in heaven. My personal opinion, the guy who's going to end up in the top tier wasn't there, which is Scott Walker (the conservative governor of Wisconsin)."
Matalin believes former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will eventually lose the Democratic nomination for president in 2016.

Club is great. Very good off the deck or tee. I was very pleased to find this club to be essentially brand new
Order the 3HL in mint condition. Arrived ahead of delivery date, and was BRAND NEW, still in factory packaging. Again , Global Golf exceeds my expectations. Can't wait to get this fairway wood on the course tomorrow.
As a once a year golfer for the past 25 years, I've decided to get serious this year primarily because of the amazing courses I've been blessed to play. My friends are "scratch" golfers and were amazed at how old my woods were, actually they busted my shoes for a while lol. My buddy is a proponent of Global golf and suggested I get "used" woods. Being cost conscious, I wasn't about to purchase new clubs when I'm trying to re-learn the sport. So I purchased a driver, fairway wood, and rescue (hybrid) club from Global Golf. Delivery was on point, and the clubs were in amazing condition for the price. Now I'm excited about Golf, and the clubs really did help my game.Peace,Fred
Really like the jet speed line but this is my second wood from global golf which has shown signs of shaft wear/cracking very quickly. Already had a driver crack one inch above the hosel and seeing similar pattern with this one. Not sure if they have a bad batch of shafts or over tightening but make sure to watch out
great club

The free analytics question comes up over and over again, especially as it pertains to open source analytic offerings. I don't think a day goes by when someone at a company doesn't ask, "Why should I pay for analytics when I can use (fill in the blank) open source statistics/analytics?" You will find many lengthy discussions all over the Web on just this topic. Often the discussion is much more impassioned than it needs to be. I will address the Read more…
For all its benefits, Hadoop has its drawbacks. The actual movement of data can be complex, and does not lend itself to efficient execution. Discouraged with Hadoop's heaviness, an online advertising company developed and released as open source an alternative called Cluster Map Reduce (CMR) that it says is lighter, faster, and simpler to program. CMR was developed by Chitika, an online advertising company based in Massachusetts. Chitika was using the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) as the core of Read more…
While Moore's Law has made computing and storage capacity less expensive with each passing year, the amount of data that companies are storing and the number and sophistication of the algorithms that they want to employ on that data to perform analytics is growing faster than the prices are dropping. And that means the bang for the buck of the underlying hardware and the analytics software that runs atop it matter. The trouble is that benchmarking systems takes far too Read more…
The ongoing explosion of data is forcing users to adapt their storage methodologies beyond traditional file- and block-level storage. Object stores and software-defined storage mechanisms, in particular, are quickly gaining footholds at organizations that need to store massive unstructured data sets. Meanwhile, some vendors are promoting a twist on object stores with new "data-defined" storage techniques. File-level storage works well with traditional structured data, such as what you might find in a commercial accounting system using direct-attached storage devices (i.e. Read more…
The strategic partnership that Hortonworks and Red Hat unveiled today is interesting on several fronts. For starters, there are the joint development projects, most notably the connector that allows Hortonworks' Hadoop distribution to talk natively to Red Hat Storage. Beyond that, the partnership with the $10-billion commercial open source software company provides a glimpse of who Hortonworks might want to be when it grows up.
News In Brief
Big data may be the killer app for clouds, said Red Hat today, announcing their intention to seamlessly shepherd their considerable installed user base into a new era of computing.
This week Red Hat entered the enterprise big data storage market with a new software storage appliance. The offering, which leverages both the technology from the acquisition of Gluster as well as its own Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1, targets big unstructured data.
This Just In
Hortonworks, the leading contributor to and provider of enterprise Apache Hadoop, today announced the latest addition to its joint engineering alliance with Red Hat Inc., the world's leading provider of open source solutions, including integration of OpenShift, Red Hat's award-winning Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering, with Hortonworks Data Platform, bringing Hadoop to the open hybrid cloud.

Vodafone UK to launch the Google Nexus One in April
According to initial rumors, the Nexus One should have been available via Vodafone since late January or early February. However, Google's first phone is not ready yet for Voda.
And although there hasn't been any official announcement about the exact release date of Nexus One via Vodafone, it looks like the carrier's subscribers in the UK will be able to buy the smartphone starting April.
Telegraph.co.uk has it that "sources close to both companies have confirmed that April is when the company will have a realistic chance of being ready for the launch."
For the moment, there are no clear details on pricing, but the Nexus One might cost €150 with a Vodafone contract agreement. Vodafone will probably not offer the Nexus One directly to customers. Instead, you'll be able to buy the handset via Google's online phone store.
Vodafone aside, the Google Nexus One is coming soon to Verizon, too (by the way, Vodafone owns 45% of Verizon Wireless).

I have always liked Swatch, ever since I bought my first one (Jelly Fish) in a department store for my birthday, way back in 1987. 26 years later, I still have this model and wear it periodically. I would recommend "Croissant Chaud" for any individual of any age who wants a no frills, easy to read, classic style of watch without the high cost of some other brands.
Lastly, with Swatches, you save on having to bring it to a watch repair store to have the battery changed. Just buy another battery at a store and change it yourself (hint: a nickel seems to work well in opening the battery cover without damaging it).
I'm now wearing my second "Croissant Chaud." My first was a gift from my parents I finished college / started working full time in the late '90's. I wore it working overseas while working in the Peace Corps in the tropics for two years and through 5+ years of teaching school. The band became worn, flimsy, and discolored, but the face remained good as new for years. I replaced the band in 2002, and scuffed the face badly i a biking accident in 2005, after which I sadly could not easily read the face, and I stopped wearing it.
My husband found this model in an airport in 2010 and bought me my second copy. Today, I am replacing the battery of the 2010 model for the first time. The band of my "new" Croissant Chaud is now almost as shabby and discolored as the first, but the face is still in perfect condition, and the band is wearable. I can't decide if I want to replace the band now or wait for for the buckle to break entirely. I kind of like the shabby look, and the feel of the band now it is worn and flexible.
I gave the quality 4 stars due to the band's inability to hold up to many years of water or sweat. Don't let that hold you back - this watch is a classic you could love for decades.
I don't think I ever took it off unless I was in the shower or the swimming pool. (I would recommend taking it off even though it is waterproof as water wears on the leather band and discolors it).
I only gave this watch up once it was so damaged (water / fights with my hair straightener which melted half the face) that my sweet husband bought me a look-a-like replacement. A for effort, love, but I don't think I've ever loved another watch more than this one.

- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Preheat oven to 350°. Combine cake mix, butter and egg until blended. Set aside 2/3 cup for topping. Press remaining crumb mixture into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish.
- For filling, combine pumpkin pie filling, milk and eggs; pour over crust.
- For topping, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon and reserved crumb mixture; sprinkle over pumpkin layer.

Reviews for Pumpkin Dessert
"I found this to be just okay. It was easy to make, but the pumpkin layer is not sweet at all and has a kind of pasty texture. I guess I was expecting it to be more pumpkin pie-ish. My husband put whipped cream on his and said it was good. Not sure if I would make again."
"I suspect something was not quite right when I did the recipe. Although I have re-read it several time, and did not mess up the ingrediants. When I added the cake mix, MELTED butter and egg- it became very batter like, not crumbs. I used a Duncan Hines mix. So, I added a couple table spoons of Bisquick to try and make it more crumbly. I am sure that was a mistake. I am thinking that is should have been softened butter to make crumbs. Oh well, it is ok-but I think it would have been better with a shortbread crumb like texture."
"This is the BEST mistake I ever made! I mistakenly purchased 'pumpkin pie filling' instead of pumpkin puree. I made this dessert so as not to waste the purchase. I'm glad I did! It was a hit. They make a great dessert topped with whipped cream but can also be cut nicely into squares and served on a cookie platter or at a bunch. This recipe works equally well with yellow, butter or spice cake mix. Using a carrot cake mix added extra color diversity because of he little specs of carrots in the mix, looked very fall like. I will be making this "mistake" for many years to come!!"
"This was really easy to make. I took this to a bake sale fundraiser at work and it was a big hit - whole pan went for $75. Now they're asking for the recipe."
"let it cool just a bit and then eat it warm with some whipped cream!"

Pushing me away is a beautiful song.
Not A Born Leader, I'm A Tough Act To Follow...
DISCLAIMER: Most of my posts are meant to be sarcastic.
'With You' all the way!
TLTGYA it would have to be for me. Close race though, as I love many of those songs live.
When LP came to Australia to promote Minutes, they finished off the show with a 3 song encore starting with TLTGYA. It started with darkness then Chester and Mike were lit up, then as each band members part began in the song, they came out on to the stage. A special moment really, and one I'll never forget.
I would pick No Roads but since it's not there I chose In Between.
Vdalem's Cookies!
Vote for Easier to Run, is an amazing with deep true lyrics. Helped me much earlier in my life.
The Little Things Give You Away, Valentine's Day, Pushing Me Away & In Pieces all da way up.
Fuck you, why isn't Bubbles on here?
I am not Mike Shinoda.
I think TLTGYA needs to make a comeback. Rather than being that lengthy behemoth of a song way back in 2007, it would look right at home alongside The Catalyst and Iridescent.
I'd also say to bring back APFMH, but it sounds perfect as is over the bridge of Bleed It Out. The rest of those songs don't really peak my interest anymore. With You would be a nice surprise, but I feel it would be too underwhelming compared to the beast it was in 2004. And as much as I love In Pieces, they never seemed to give that song justice onstage.
Don't Stay

Even if you do not own a Panini maker, and have nowhere to store one if you did, you don't have to settle for the same old cold sandwiches day after day.
Traditionally, a Panini is a pressed masterpiece made with artisanal bread, veggies, meat and melted cheese. While normally high in fat and calories, you can slim yours down by following these tips:
- Avoid processed meats: Instead of using proteins like salami or pepperoni, choose leaner options such as smoked chicken, turkey pastrami or turkey ham.
- Pump up the vegetables: Add extra flavor and more filling by adding nutrient-dense fillings like baby spinach, sliced tomatoes and roasted peppers.
- Skip presliced cheese: Instead, use shaved Parmesan or pecorino or opt for a sprinkling of bold-tasting crumbles, such as Gorgonzola or feta.
- Keep tabs on bread: Instead of using Italian rolls, cut a crusty loaf into thin (1 ounce) slices.
- Stop slathering: Most Panini makers come with nonstick interiors, negating the need to spread butter or oil on the bread. If not, a light coating of nonstick spray will suffice nicely.
Now put the Panini concept to the test with this delicious recipe for a broccolini and onion Panini.
- 1 large red onion, halved lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- 6 Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
- ½ pound Broccolini (Aspiration)
- 4 (1 ounce) slices ciabatta
- 2 (1 ounce) slices part-skim pepper Jack cheese
- Preheat oven to 450ᵒF
- Place onion in baking pan, spray with nonstick spray
- Add thyme and toss to coat
- Bake, stirring twice, until tender – 30 minutes
- Stir in olives
- Meanwhile, bring large saucepan of lightly salted water to boil. Add Broccolini and cook 3 minutes. Drain, pat dry with paper towels.
- Preheat Panini maker
- Divide onion mixture on 2 slices of bread. Top evenly with Broccolini, cheese and remaining bread

Romney Used Humor to Defend Religion Last Night
While President Obama sat next to him
During presidential election years, New York's cardinal archbishop invites both candidates to trade jokes at the Al Smith Dinner, a charity event named for a former Democratic governor of New York who was the first Catholic candidate for president.
Given the Obama administration's order that Catholic employers pay for things that violate their church's teaching, many wondered whether Cardinal Dolan would invite the president. But he did—and he sat behind the podium with Obama and Romney on either side of him.
Most of the press accounts of this dinner quote some funny jokes by Romney and Obama: Romney said he and his wife, Ann, feel comfortable at white-tie dinners because that's how they dress around the house, Obama made fun of his lackluster performance in the first debate.
But the media left out something more important: A couple of Romney's jests actually were sharp criticisms of Obama's attack on the Catholic Church. And Cardinal Dolan, in his closing comments, emphasized the importance of protecting the unborn, religious freedom, and the rights of conscience. In the face of the Obama mandate, he said that a church is not defined only by what happens within its walls on Sundays. Powerful words spoken to the world's most powerful man.
Among Romney's jokes, this wasn't his funniest, but it was maybe the most important thing he said:
"The president has found a way to take the sting out of the Obamacare mandates for the Church. From now on they're going to be in Latin."
Romney also said, "in the spirit of Sesame Street, tonight is brought to you by the letter O and the number $16 trillion." And he predicted that the media would skew the coverage, saying tomorrow's headlines about the dinner would read: "Obama Embraced by Catholics, Romney Dines With Rich People."
The governor's 10 minutes at the podium were genuinely funny. Watch it here.

|Random Walks, Circuits, and Spatial Statistical Models for Gene Flow in Heterogeneous Landscapes
|Mathematical Biology and Physiology Seminar
|Ephraim Hanks, Penn State University
|Abstract: Genetic data collected over space are commonly used to study how landscape features such as mountains, rivers, and roads affect connectivity in animal species. One approach correlates observed genetic distance with the circuit-theoretic resistance distance of a graph representation of the landscape. We examine links between this circuit modeling approach and random walk models for gene flow in heterogeneous environments. We show that a Gaussian Markov random field model can be constructed which matches the spatial structure implied by circuits and by the equilibrium state of a random walk model. This provides a spatial statistical model with links to a spatio-temporal data generating process.

A Daily Word from the Word for Wednesday, April 23, 2014
"My eyes are ever toward the Lord, for He shall pluck my feet out of the net." – Psalm 25:15
Are you tired from struggling to get out of your situation, my brother? Can't seem to breathe in your current condition, my sister? Then let us claim the promise of the Lord that He will pluck us from the net!
Webster defines a "net" as "an entrapping device or situation." What situation, relationship, mindset, attitude, condition, tradition, or emotion has you trapped, family? It's time to break free! It's time to get loosed! Today is the day to take our focus off of the net which has us hemmed in, and to refocus on our Father who is waiting to pluck us out!
The Hebrews word for "eyes," as used in this verse, is ayin (pr. ah-yin), which means "affliction, think" (Strong's Exhaustive Concordance). What are you thinking about these days, my brother? Have your thoughts bound you with the preoccupation of your situation, my sister? Or have you set your thoughts on higher things? Our Divine Thinker declares "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways," declares the Lord. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts" (Isaiah 55:8-9). We are to lift our eyes up to the hills from where our strength comes from, as our strength comes from the Lord (Psalm 121: 1-2).
Our eyes should be "ever" steadfastly focused on the Lord, where ever (tamiyd, pr. taw-meed), is "to stretch, constant, sacrifice, perpetual." As we sacrifice to stretch to the Lord, He will stretch over us like a tent. Isaiah 40:22 testifies of this truth as it gives us the assurance that our faithful and protective Father "stretches the heavens, out like a canopy, and stretches them out like a tent for His people to live in."
As we motion toward the Lord with our eyes, and stretch forth our focus, our thoughts upon Him, He will break us out of our situation! The Hebrew word for "pluck" is yatsa (pr. yaw-tsaw), which means to "break out."
Do you need your Daddy to break you out of your self-imposed jail cell, family? Then motion for Him to come to your rescue. The prophet Micah declares that the Lord Jesus Christ is the Breaker! He carries with Him the breaker anointing to break us out! "The One who breaks open will come up before them; they will break out, pass through the gate, and go out by it; their king will pass before them, with the Lord at their head" (Micah 2:13).
Are you ready for your Father to break you out of your bedlam, my brother? Are you eagerly waiting for your Perfect Parent to pluck you out of your predicament, my sister? Me too! Let's come undone as we gaze into the eyes of the One Who created us for such a time as this!
Father, we repent for getting ourselves into a situation that has entrapped us. Forgive us for focusing on ourselves and our circumstances, rather than focusing on and putting our trust in You. Forgive us for getting entangled and ensnared from the opinions and advice of people, when we should have been securing our portion with Your Word. Help us, Holy God! Break us out of our predicament! Deliver us from that false mindset! Free us from religion and tradition! Break bias off of us! Release us from racism! In Jesus Name, we thank You that we are free, because whom the Son sets free is free indeed! (John 8:36).
Take action! Challenge your thinking! Choose to stop focusing on your situation, and start focusing on your solution, Who is Jesus Christ. Stop wallowing in "woulda-coulda-shoulda," and start stretching yourself toward your break-through. Refuse to be bound by the tangles of regrets; and instead, be set free by forgiveness through repentance. And continue to fight the good fight of continually keeping your eyes toward the Lord; for God, your Ultimate Catch, has already given you the victory!
If you have never received Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, I encourage you to do it today, right now, by saying this prayer out loud: "Jesus, forgive me for my sins. I am sorry. I truly desire to be saved and reconciled back to God, my Father, through You. I receive Your sinless Blood as payment in full for my sins—past, present, and future. I now call You my Lord and Savior, and invite You to live within my heart, and to permanently live within me. I make You Lord over me and over my life from this moment on. Amen." Congratulations! You are now a child of God, made whole and made new, by the Blood of Jesus Christ!
God tells us that we are blessed to be a blessing (Genesis 12:2). Be a blessing to someone by sending them this word of encouragement. If God did not already put someone in your spirit and on your heart that needs to read this uplifting message from above, simply ask your Heavenly Father who to bless on today. Forward this message right now by email, facebook, or twitter.
Jesus is coming soon!
May God Bless you and keep you always.
With warmest regards,
And, in service of The Most High King,

(Posted online today for the first time, this piece was first published in the Dance Insider's January 2000 print edition.)
Dance insiders can talk about dance all day, but we're so deep in it, I'm not sure how clearly we can see it. A man-on-the-street perspective would be invaluable, but not too many men on the street consider going to dance, at least not in the United States. So to get informed outsiders' take on dance, Paul Ben-Itzak and I gathered the significant others of dancers; they're not in the field, but they see plenty of dance to keep their relationships healthy. The dancer-boyfriends, and one dancer-girlfriend: Jim Simmons, an architect; Lisa Vining, a specialist in visual display and window design; Bernie Yee, a writer and computer game producer; and Ben Zackheim, a writer who also works on computer games. All said that they'd hardly ever seen dance before becoming involved with their current partners. We asked for their impressions of the stuff.
Bernie: Dance is really cool, but incredibly inbred. I don't know any other creative pursuit that is so insular and free from commercial or pop culture ramifications. Eccentric or really out-there pieces I think are interesting, but they seem to form the bulk of the dance I've seen.
Jim: I was recently at P.S. 1 museum, and had a problem with the contemporary art. Coming at it cold, all you have is the work itself, and so many times it's about the artist, about the fact that this hasn't been done before. Many times I feel that way watching dance. I'm looking for some point of reference, for some meaning, and I rarely see it.
Lisa: Do you think maybe it's there, you just don't know? There might be a study of Cunningham technique that I wouldn't have known before I started seeing more dance, but now I might recognize that.
Ben: That's back to Bernie's idea of it being inbred. I always feel like I've been introduced in the middle of the second act, like I'm not privy to what's going on socially and artistically.
Lisa: Dance is just its separate little world. Now, after five years of going to dance concerts all the time, I have a bit of a background, so my experience is a little richer than the guy off the street's. Yet there are still all these other layers I'm just slowly going through.
Bernie: My girlfriend tells me to try to appreciate the movement in the moment, and that's hard for someone who's more literal than movement-driven. I'm pretty open and interested in different art forms, but a lot of dance just doesn't touch me at all.
Ben: Some of the modern dance I've seen is self-centered, self-indulgent. The people clapping the hardest are the dancers' friends. There's somebody else to answer to, and audience that needs to be acknowledged.
Jim: I get a feeling that if you appeal to the masses, then you have crossed a line and sold out. You're no longer doing art, you're doing commerce. I saw a particular Gap ad and was immediately on the phone to (boyfriend) Ben (Munisteri) going, "You have to see this, because I know it's great dance.... "
Bernie: Those Gap ads are pretty inventive.
Jim: .... But then I'm talking about the Gap and khakis and it's all in that pop culture realm; it's entertainment!
Veronica: If a whole bunch of people like it, is that so wrong?
Ben: I feel oily every time I watch it and can't stop watching it.
Jim I want to watch the details. I want to watch the hand....
Lisa: It's like the swing craze. I think it spurred those commercials. When I would go swing dancing it was great, because it was the first time I could ever remember everybody was on the dance floor. Dance was always this different arena.
Jim: I have a question about that: Is that piece -- the Gap ad -- not self-referential? There's obviously some retro thing to it....
Veronica: It refers to something that people can actually imagine experiencing, like what Lisa was talking about; there's something so remote from your experience, you can't imagine it.
Ben: There's a difference between dance that makes you want to see more dance and dance that makes you want to dance. The Gap ad makes me want to dance; it doesn't make me want to see the latest piece at Joyce Soho (a downtown New York theater).
Paul: What makes you want to see more dance?
Ben: Am I going to get in trouble if I say Paul Taylor? I've never seen anything like "The Word," in any medium. Another would be Momix.
Lisa: Dance that makes me want to see more dance has full-out movement. One of the most frustrating things about going to dance with (boyfriend) Jordan (Fuchs) is I would see ten performances and maybe one I would relate to. I was like, "God, I wish they would just dance. Stop standing around in your slip and do something.
Bernie: I've been moved to tears twice in a live performance; once was "Hamlet" done by Royal Shakespeare and another was a piece that Mark Dendy did on AIDS. There's so much going on that you couldn't consciously track the ways you were being manipulated. That's really powerful, but it's so rare. The people controlling what pieces are presented are not subject to the same vicissitudes that a Hollywood studio is. Like, "If you don't make some good movies, you're out." I think that NEA (National Endowment for the Arts) funding is essentially intellectual welfare. I see so much crap.
Jim: I have a knee-jerk reaction to that. There needs to be some shot in the arm, so people do things like "Piss Christ." People don't like it, but it creates dialogue. I'm undoing what we've been saying, but it's good that we have someone dragging a mattress across a stage, because then we can say, "Did you see that guy dragging the mattress? It was awful."
Lisa: Or, "What did you think?"
Bernie: I guess I'm searching for some socially Darwinistic way of approaching dance. Hollywood definitely doesn't encourage quality but at least there's some accountability. I know these Hollywood guys are thinking, "What do people want to see? They want to see "Lethal Weapon 6," because it's an accessible archetype, and they want to see Mel Gibson and Danny Glover together again. At least there's some acknowledgment of the audience. I don't think that's true for 90 percent of dance.
Ben: I don't think that's the problem. In dance right now, there is a disconnect with the world around it. The idea of having a particular aspect of dance, like notation, move into the digital realm is very important for dancers and choreographers! And I've seen some dances that use multimedia within the dance itself, and it's amazing.
Lisa: I think dance moving toward technology is moving away from its original intention.
Ben: It's not just a matter of technology, it's a basic movement of society toward a certain kind of thinking, and it does mean, for example, a shorter attention span. Acknowledge that in your dance. I haven't seen that. I think the answer is incorporating the world we live in into the dance.
Paul: A lot of socially driven dances I can't stand because their only justification is political, social, or racial. Are there other ways dance can tie into the world beyond it?
Bernie: There are all sorts of cues throughout pop culture about movement, body language and physical iconography. One of the great moments in one of (D. Chase Angier's) pieces is when the dancers assume the Charlie's Angels pose everyone recognizes, and finds immediately entertaining.
Ben: The fact that you're using iconography we can identify with opens our minds up. Call us idiots, but we're the audience.
Jim: What if there were more outlets? Every other form of art we can bring into our house -- from having a TV to buying a book at the Museum of Modern Art -- but it's rare to bring dance into your home. I've got a stack of postcards that I started collecting because it's art that I can't always go to London to look at, but that I want to see.
Ben: With a successful dance, somebody's going to walk away with it and keep it with them. Something that comes to mind is the precious days of not having a VCR. Movies used to be like dance, because you saw it and you lived your life with it in you as some kind of kernel. There isn't any commodity structure, there's no souvenir. I think that's great.
Lisa: I also think about how different kinds of dance work -- like when I see a ballet, I feel so alienated by it. I have an appreciation of how technical and elegant it is, but it's so far removed from anything I could ever do, versus the modern dance I really enjoy.
Jim: The thing about ballet is there is a structure. For me, it's similar to looking at a classical Greek temple. I can appreciate the structure and the rules and how someone manipulated that. It's like "Agon"; I'm blown away because there are these Balanchine rules. Then I go to a Doug Elkins concert, and there's another set of rules. My personal accessibility to dance is finding the rules for the structure of it. But I've seen a modern dance solo where I have a hard time thinking that she's not making it up right there. Other choreographers have a structure or a form, and even if they're not telling a literal story, they're telling a movement story.
Veronica: So this idea of them making it up on the spot is annoying?
Jim: Yeah. Why bother? Go do this in your living room.
Bernie: Would it have changed if she had cut a whole section of movement? No. Then, what was the point?
Lisa: Are you telling me something? Or is it a process for you to do it in front of me, to find something in yourself?
Bernie: Maybe dance isn't as successful commercially because there is no object we can take away from it. Then again, theater is sort of the live performance cousin of dance in that it only exists at the moment of performance, but I think it's healthier than dance. There's experimental theater, Off-Broadway, mainstream. Why can't dance be more like that?
Paul: There's an obvious difference in that theater has words. Is dance harder to understand because there aren't words?
Bernie: But we like music....
Paul: Are dances too long? I see dances that are good for the first 15 minutes, and then go on and on.
Bernie: Dance is the only liner art form that doesn't have an editor.
Lisa: That depends on the choreographer. When Jordan gets a piece to a final draft, he'll get my opinion, and then he'll get another dancer's opinion, and he takes all of that and changes the piece.
Bernie: Some of my favorite literary works were created by a talented writer and an almost equally talented editor. You read "The Wasteland" -- T.S. Eliot -- but Ezra Pound spent a lot of energy changing this.
Ben: Sounds like a new job description: dance editor. I've gone to rehearsals where the comments are really important, and usually when the choreographer's listened to what we said, the dance got better.
Paul: But isn't there a difference between the type of editors you're talking about, and a presenter saying the dance is too long, cut it down?
Ben: Why should dancers be any different from any of the other artists who have to put up with editors?
Bernie: Can you imagine if all the novels we read were only the drafts of the writer?
Ben: Oh my God: Stephen King.
Lisa: That's such an impossible thing to have. Every dancer I know is struggling; who's going to pay an editor? Is it going to be all-volunteer?
Bernie: Maybe choreographers can work collaboratively.
Lisa: They have in certain situations, like talk-backs after performances.
Bernie: (At the talk-backs) I always want to ask, "What the hell were you thinking when you were choreographing?" My girlfriend says, "The dance world's too small. If you do that, go sit away from me."
Jim: Ben does that at the end of his performances, and nobody will ask, "What the hell were you thinking?" I think he wants that.
Veronica: Then there are the informal editing devices in place: inviting people in to rehearsal, having a talk-back.
Ben: Great stuff is still coming out in the dance world, so maybe all the critical stuff we have to say is moot.
Bernie: One thing we didn't bring up is the difference between the way male and female dancers are treated. My girlfriend says there's so much work for male dancers, that if she were a man and equally talented, she'd be a star. Or at least gainfully employed at a pretty good company.
Veronica: There are 20 women for every man -- a lot more competition.
Bernie: If this were just a business, companies would be freaked out if they had jobs where men were being hired that weren't as good as women. The would think very hard about how to deal with it in a way that didn't piss off people.
Paul: I learned from dating dancers that it's not just about performing, there's a whole 24-hour rigor behind that.
Lisa: Across the board, their level of commitment has to be so high.
Bernie: That's what I find captivating about dancers; they're totally committed, and the payback is zip. She has a dedication I have no clue about.
Paul: They'll spend the money to go to class even if they don't have a performance. On a Saturday, on a Sunday.
Jim: You get to have a beautiful partner who's obviously not about money, or about accumulating wealth. There's some substance.
Ben: When I first saw her dance there was a poise which comes from a strength I've come to understand the last three years. Her style is so integrated with who she is that I think I would recognize her shadow on stage.

Amanda Lexx
"Don't try to impress me; I like simple things, just say hi." - Amanda Lexx, on what it takes to get a date with her.
After modeling for Play..boy and fitness magazines such as Ironman and American Curves, Lexx put in an appearance on an episode of Baywatch: Hawaii. She continued doing television, this time the more scandalous variety, on the Play..boy Channel. Despite all this activity, it's her website, AmandaLexx.com, that has won her the most acclaim. There, you can meet Amanda, peruse her photos, movies and live webcams and see how she, ahem, gets along with all her hot female friends.
With her tight, toned body, fitness magazines gravitated toward her. She did photo shoots for Ironman, Muscle Mag, American Curves and Fit Beauties, among others. The increased exposure allowed her once again to move up the modeling ranks -- this time, she agreed to host Play..boy TV's Night Calls. Lexx appeared several times on the sex call-in show and came to realize that she enjoyed the voyeuristic aspect nude modeling provided.
With this in mind, Lexx started up her own website, AmandaLexx.com. As the domain received more attention, Amanda went from doing only solo photo shoots to lesbian videos and live webcams. She continues to manage the online business and has seen it grow consistently, making her one of the most popular Internet models ever.
Amanda Lexx BiographyA fun-loving California girl through and through, Amanda Lexx was born in the Golden State's south on August 11th, 1976. Her childhood and adolescence, though punctuated by several episodes of "boy-craziness" and rebellion, were quite normal. After high school, she was set on attending college and traveling.

By the time she was 24, Amanda had held true to the latter part of her goals. She found herself in Hawaii, enjoying the surf, sun and sand. Through friends and a helpful contact, Amanda researched the possibility of doing some modeling while vacationing. After a few trial photo shoots, photographers and agents in the area were convinced Amanda had a future in the business.
While in Hawaii, her first jobs came in the way of brochures and local print advertisements for clothes. The timing was perfect, however, as Play..boy noticed her and soon featured her in its monthly magazine.
From there, Amanda saw how fast a career can take off; she soon landed a guest appearance on Baywatch Hawaii, the reincarnation of the popular lifeguard show. Though her role wasn't too significant, the fact she gained the job in such a short time showed there was a future in modeling.

Returning to Southern California following this great debut, Amanda now had the credentials to broaden her horizons. Thanks to her taut form and large, enhanced breasts, she was the perfect eye candy for fitness magazines. American Curves and Ironman sought her services, as did Muscle Mag and Fit Beauties. Amanda even extended her reach to Europe after being featured in the European version of the car mag Lowrider.
amanda starts up amandalexx.com
It wasn't until she consulted a successful nude model and friend that Lexx reached her full potential. This particular girlfriend told her of the benefits of running her own modeling site where members pay to view the sexy, pornographic photos. Convinced big money could be earned on the Internet, Amanda jumpstarted AmandaLexx.com and starting stripping off her lingerie.
Lexx shows up in night calls
At first, progress on the website was slow. However, when Lexx began hosting Play..boy TV's Night Calls, business picked up. She played host of the sex call-in show perfectly and viewers began to look her up on the Internet.
Eager Web searchers soon found Lexx's site and became habitual visitors. Little advertising was needed to promote the domain, as Amanda began working with fellow Internet models and would receive thousands of hits via search engines. Business was only helped when she began posting galleries, movies and webcam links of herself "playing" with other women.
amanda lexx lives in socal
Now, Amanda continues to manage the site, running the show and dictating the content. She is doing a great job as well, raking in the dough by all accounts. As for her personal life, Amanda is living it up as a bachelorette in SoCal, driving both men and women crazy.

CEIC Data cited in The New York Times: China Lets Currency Weaken, Risking New Trade Tensions
HONG KONG — China's currency dropped further in May against the dollar than in any other month since the Chinese government began allowing the renminbi to appreciate gradually in the summer of 2005. The shift could help Chinese exports but worsen trade friction with Europe and particularly the United States.
By setting weaker and weaker daily "fixings" for the renminbi against the dollar at the start of each day's trading, China's central bank has pushed down the renminbi 0.9 percent against the dollar over the last month. The decline in the daily fixings coincides with signs that the Chinese domestic economy is slowing sharply this spring and may need help from stronger exports.
A cheaper renminbi makes Chinese exports more competitive in overseas markets while making foreign goods more costly and less affordable in China. The Obama administration has been pressing China for the last three years to allow faster appreciation in the renminbi, not depreciation, as a way to narrow the United States's trade deficit with China, which reached a record $295.46 billion last year.
