My main research areas are firmly within the realm of Bayesian statistics and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. I'm generally interested in models for dependent data, especially time series, spatial, and spatial temporal models, as well as MCMC and other computing methods for these models. I also have an interest in constructing priors for covariance matrices, partially motivated by the sorts of models I'm interested in. Finally, I'm also interested in applications of Bayesian statistics to causal inference, particularly in economics.

Try this Black Bean Salad recipe, or contribute your own.
0 people want to try | 0 have favorited
This dish is Mexican/Southwestern in concept. Its a bit like a salad of greens, where black beans substitute for the lettuce and the rather large dose of lime juice makes it surprisingly refreshing. It traels well and is better the day after its made: a good accompaniment to hot or cold grilled meat. You can also add cold grilled meat directly to the salad and turn it into an entree. Sort the beans carefully, discarding any small pebbles that may be mixed in. Soak the beans in cold water to cover for 5 hours, then drain and rinse them well. Put the beans in a saucepan and add enough water to come about 1 1/2 inches above them. Add the thyme, salt, fennel seed, garlic, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the beans are tender but not mushy. Drain the beans and rinse them under cold water for 1 minute to stop the cooking process. Drain them again. In a large bowl, combine the dressing ingredients and mix well. Add the beans, toss, and serve. This salad keeps for 4 to 5 days covered and refrigerated.

Surgical Treatment of Isolated Patellofemoral Osteoarthritis

Isolated patellofemoral (PF) osteoarthritis (OA) affects 9% of persons older than 40 years. Nonoperative treatment should be exhausted fully before surgical treatment.
The purpose of this article is to review the literature after 2008 with the aim of answering the following question: Which of the following surgical procedures has the highest survival rate and the lowest revision rate in advanced isolated PF OA: patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA), total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or lateral facetectomy.
The search engine was MedLine. The keywords used were: PF OA and PFA. Three hundred and fifty-three articles were found between 2008 and 25 July 2013. Of those, only 23 were selected and reviewed because they were strictly focused on the topic and the question of this article.
The types of studies reported so far have a low level of evidence (levels III and IV). Most of them are prospective case series (level IV). Some are systematic reviews of level III studies. Reported survival rate of lateral facetectomy is 85% at 5 years, 67% at 10 years and 47% at 20 years. Reported failure rate of lateral facetectomy is 26% at 10 years and 16% at 12 years. The reported average time of reoperation is 8 years and 37% of such procedures fail. Survival rate of PFA has been reported to be 87.5% on average (range, 60–100%). The revision rate of PFA is 20%. Recent improvements in PFA design have resulted in improvements in short-and medium-term results, similar to those of TKA.
There is still no gold standard for the surgical treatment of isolated PF OA. However, PFA or TKA appear to be the most recommendable treatment in cases that do not respond to conservative treatment.

Q: I work at a bank, and my co-worker wants to quit her job to follow her dream of becoming a novelist. She gave me some chapters to read, and they're awful. Is it kinder to be honest with my feedback?
A: "Try tactful honesty: You could say, 'Given your passion, you need other writers to talk to—how about signing up for a creative writing course?'"
— Rushworth M. Kidder, founder of the Institute for Global Ethics
"Tough ethical choice. Dream crusher or irresponsible enabler? Try to find some middle ground. You can avoid explicitly criticizing her work if you commend her on her ambition but offer a reminder that the odds are stacked against any writer and that it's practical to keep a job until she gets a book deal."
— Faith Salie, host of public radio's Fair Game from PRI with Faith Salie

Red Cross still helping victims
Published: Wednesday, December 21, 2005 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, December 21, 2005 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: Just wanted to write a letter of recognition of the American Red Cross.
It originally started in the U.S. on May 21, 1881, with Clara Barton and has continued helping people up to today. It has been helping people in this county since 1970.
I recently joined the Hendersonville Red Cross chapter as a volunteer and was amazed at the variety of good work it does.
Accepting blood donations is one of the services and very important because blood saves lives. We also offer blood screening tests, CPR and first aid classes.
We were there for the victims of Katrina and other disasters. We trained volunteers to go to New Orleans and other storm areas and received countless contributions from the good people of Hendersonville and other places to help these storm victims.
These are just a few of the things the American Red Cross does, including other emergency situations right here in Henderson County.
I believe the American Red Cross, all its staff members and volunteers deserve a well-earned round of applause along with all the other people who helped.
We're still in need of volunteers. Remember the old motto: Your Red Cross Needs You.
Theresa Benedict

As the title says, I need either a way to call category_description using the category's name, or to get the category's ID from the name.
How to do this is very dependent on *where* you're doing it. I noted here that
$cat holds the category ID when a category query occurs. If that's not enough, spell out what you're trying to accomplish.
EDIT: Note also the suggestion I give here for collecting user data on author queries:
works the same for a category's data on a category query.
That works perfectly, thanks! I've never seen it anywhere in the codex, though.
Wait. No it doesn't. It gets the ID OK, but it still has the kind of problem mentioned in the other thread:
"but then if the most recent post is belonged to a child category then the ID would be the child's ID."
That's the problem. I think it is because the sidebar is done after the loop, so $cat holds the ID of the last category of the last post on the page.
single_cat_title('', false) will get the proper category name I want, which is why I asked whether there was a way to convert that name to an ID.
Try sticking:
in before the global scoping of $wp_query, etc. and see if that clears things up.
Eek. It did work originally, I just messed up. I'll still remember rewind_posts in case I need it.
Messed up? Hey, we don't do that around here...

I downloaded Visual C++ 2010 express and am shocked at how completely slow/unusable it is. I have a pretty beefy computer (4 gigs ram, 3.2ghz dual core, Radeon hd4890) and I literally cannot even type when I have opened up a solution. To even see the code in the first place after opening up a .cpp I have to minimize visual c++ and maximize it again to "refresh" it. Anyone have similar problems to this or know how to fix it? 2008 worked like a charm for me but I would really like to get 2010 working for class. Thanks!
Edit further info:
-Sometimes if i restart my computer enough I can boot up VS2010 and then it seems to work fine. It is completely random though.
-My cpu/ram usage seems fine having VS open -All drivers/bios up to date
If anyone needs any further diagnostic information from me to help diagnose the problem ill get it ASAP.
Hmmm new update... messing around in options->environment->general there are three boxes for "Automatically adjust visual experience based on client performance", "enable rich client visual experience" and "use hardware acceleration if available"." I unchecked all of them and it seems to be working fine now. Does anyone know what these options really mean and the advantages/disadvantages to turning them off.

I would like to boot directly from an external hard disk to improve performance over my internal notebook hard disk. My notebook has no native eSata jack but a pci express card.
As my BIOS doesn't support the card on boot time so no way directly booting it.
My question is, is it possible to work around this issue by using an USB stick or similar with a boot loader like grub and if so, will this only work for Linux or Windows as well?

Over ten years ago, on December 26, 2004, an earthquake off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia triggered one of the deadliest tsunamis ever recorded, an event that ushered the destruction of over 200,00 lives -- and even more livelihoods -- throughout Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and the east coast of Africa.
The current mess is likely only a harbinger of things to come if industrialized nations don't dramatically reduce carbon emissions. Drought and desertification already ruin thousands of square miles of productive land annually, while rising sea levels could eventually force tens if not hundreds of millions of people from their coastal homes.
The United States has the technological imperative to lead on clean energy. We have the economic imperative to engage in job creation that is good for all of creation. We have the moral responsibility to protect our planet for future generations. And with the pope's encyclical, science and technology truly can be the answer to our prayers.

Dawes' New Video Features Cameos by Conor Oberst, Brandon Flowers, M. Ward + More

Brandon Flowers, My Morning Jacket, M. Ward, Johnathan Rice and Gillian Welch all make appearances in the new video.
The first installment of the "musix mix-perience" in San Diego kicks off this week and we've got 15 artists you'll definitely want to make time to catch.
First Aid Kit and Dawes may be busy on their own tours, but the folk rockers came together and joined forces in Central Park on Monday night (July 27).
The band is on the road, and they'll be performing at Bonnaroo tonight. Beyond that, they'll be playing live until October, including a few dates with Hozier.
It's probably never too early to start on your summer playlist and this week's Mandatory Music has five solid contenders.
As Dawes continue to prepare for the June release of their new album, All Your Favorite Bands, they've shared the brand-new track "Right on Time."
Letterman loved the performance by the folk-rockers so much he joked that he'll be joining the band after he retires.
L.A. folk-rock quartet Dawes premiered the video for "Things Happen," the leadoff single from their forthcoming album, All Your Favorite Bands.
Dawes have announced a string of spring and summer tour dates, and a handful of the stops will feature none other than Irish singer-songwriter Hozier.
It's never too early to talk about festival season.

On my website, at http://billbowersdc.com - when I click a menu link, the font color thinks the page it came from is still the active page, although the current page I linked to is also active.
I believe this is because the browser thinks we are still on the page that loaded at the time I went to the site.
For example, if I go to http://billbowersdc.com, and then click the "About" link, I see the main menu links for both "Home" and "About" with the current page font color.
If I were to then copy the URL from the "About" page, and paste that into a new browser window, and then I go to another page fro the main menu, the same thing happens with the main menu links for these pages.
In other words, the browser is not picking up the main page properly.
Do you have any suggestions for how to fix this please?
Thank you for any help you can offer here.

How do I know if my two floor house has one or two electric rings, one downstairs and one upstairs, or just one for all the house.
You should be able to tell from the number and size (rating) of the fuses/trip switches in the consumer unit.
The mains circuit should have a higher rating than the lighting - 30A/32A (UK/EU) vs 10A/15A for the lighting. So you should have 2 32A circuits, 2 15A and a separate 32A with thicker 6 mm core wire for an electric cooker or shower.
To test which is which turn off any sensitive equipment (computers etc.) and plug in a desk lamp to one of the sockets. Remove a fuse or flip the switch. Then test to see if the light works. Repeat for all the sockets until you've identified which are connected to this circuit.
Repeat for the other fuse/breaker.
If in doubt consult an electrician.

Call for apology over K's death
The guardian of a boy who disappeared in 2007 says the Northern Territory Police Commissioner should meet his family and apologise for the bungled investigation.
- Print page

The guardian of a boy who disappeared in 2007 says the Northern Territory Police Commissioner should meet his family and apologise for the bungled investigation.
An eight-year-old known since his death as K Raggett disappeared from Borroloola, nearly 1000kms southeast of Darwin, and the mystery surrounding the death was the subject of an ABC TV Four Corners investigation that aired last night.
A coroner found the police theory that the boy drowned was "entirely unconvincing" because he had head wounds consistent with being hit by a rock and the body appeared to have been deliberately weighed down by rocks in his shorts.
Nobody was every brought to justice over the death.
Although police sent his family a letter after the coroner's findings, K's guardian Cliff Taylor said that wasn't good enough.
"It should have been the police commissioner you know actually apologising in front of my father-in-law and my mother-in-law and myself and my wife and also his father," Mr Taylor told ABC Local Radio on Tuesday.
The coroner said evidence collected by police described by the coroner as "potentially critical" was destroyed while it may have been useful and that footprints of an adult that were not recorded showed K was probably forced or lured into bushland alone.
There was also a lengthy delay before some items were investigated and it was nearly three years after the death before the coroner received information to begin an investigation.
Mr Taylor was also sceptical that police had made changes to the way such investigations are run, since the death of K.
"There it not really definite changes at all," Mr Taylor said.
"Other kids, indigenous kids, that have gone missing and things that have happened," he said.

NEWARK, N.J. -- Three years after his abrupt departure from the Big Apple, Doron Lamb has finally come home.
Well, not quite -- we're across two rivers from the Queens neighborhood of Laurelton, where Lamb grew up. But the 6-foot-4 freshman guard for the University of Kentucky will be playing in front of family and friends when his Wildcats take on Ohio State in the NCAA regional semifinals on Friday night.
Exactly how many people are coming to cheer him on?
"I don't even know, my mom's handling that right now," Lamb said Thursday afternoon following his team's open practice at the Prudential Center. "I'm not even worried about tickets. ... I'm just looking forward to playing tomorrow."
Back in the summer of 2008, Lamb was a rising junior, and a rising star, at Bishop Loughlin High School in Brooklyn. But before the next school year began, he elected to transfer to Oak Hill Academy in southern Virginia -- a powerhouse prep school that has helped produce such NBA stars as Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Durant.
"I went to Oak Hill just to focus on my schoolwork and just have a better basketball program and a great coach, and they pushed me very well," Lamb said. "Got my grades up, played against the best of the best."
Durant and current Duke star Nolan Smith were among the Oak Hill alumni who counseled Lamb on his decision to transfer to the school, located in Mouth of Wilson, Va., in the Appalachian Mountains on the border with North Carolina.
"Being at Oak Hill is like a mission really," Lamb said. "There's like cows and farms and all that stuff. There's nothing to do out there, just focus on basketball and schoolwork. That's why I went out there."
In his two years in Virginia, Lamb blossomed into a McDonald's High School All-American, and was recruited by many of the top programs in the country, including UConn, Kansas and West Virginia. But in the end, he decided to move about 300 miles northwest to the winningest program in the history of college basketball.
"I just wanted to come to Kentucky and just keep it going," Lamb said. "Playing great basketball, great program, great coaching staff."
Lamb is one of three freshmen starting for John Calipari and the No. 4-seeded Wildcats (27-8), who will play the Buckeyes (34-2) -- the No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament -- on Friday at approximately 9:45 p.m.
The other two -- 6-foot-3 guard Brandon Knight and 6-foot-8 forward Terrence Jones -- have received more attention. Knight is the team's leading scorer (17.5 ppg, which led the nation among freshmen), hit the winning shot in the first round against Princeton and poured in 30 in the Cats' second-round win over West Virginia. And Jones is the team's second-leading scorer (16.5 ppg), its leading rebounder (8.9 rpg) and was named SEC Freshman of the Year.
But Lamb has been a key contributor in his own right. He's third on the team in scoring (12.6 ppg), shooting almost 50 percent from the field (49.7). And his 3-point shooting percentage (46.9) is tops in the Southeastern Conference, and ranks him 13th in the country.
Their coach lavished praise on the entire group of freshmen Thursday. "Each of these guys are playing as well as they have ever played in their career," Calipari said. "And that's all I can ask for as a coach."
Lamb has been streaky. He had a season-high 32 points against Winthrop on Dec. 22, and scored in double digits on 18 other occasions. Yet he also was held to single digits in six of the team's final nine regular-season games.
But Lamb bounced back with a team-high 19 points in Kentucky's SEC tournament opener against Ole Miss, and again led the team with 15 points in its semifinal win over Alabama, before injuring his left ankle near the end of the game.
And Lamb showed a lot of toughness by taking a painkilling injection in order to play in the SEC championship game win over Florida, even though he has a fear of needles. (Lamb got an assist from multiple teammates on that shot.)
Calipari has a theory on why Lamb struggled scoring late in the season.
"What you guys are missing is [Lamb's] really defending," Calipari said, according to the Kentucky Kernel on March 9. "For the first time in his life, he's using up a ton of energy defending. His offense is lacking a little bit, but not much. But he doesn't have the energy because he's really thinking, 'You know, I've got to guard somebody,' which is something we've been on him about."
Calipari will need big contributions Friday night, on both offense and defense, from all three of these freshmen to upset the Buckeyes, who feature the national freshman of the year, Jared Sullinger (17.1 ppg, 10.0 rpg), and are the best 3-point shooting team in the nation.
"I've watched a ton of Ohio State tape. There are times I watch the tape and I go, oh my goodness," Calipari said. "[But] we've gotten better too. I mean, we're playing as well as we've played all year right now. But, you know, it's funny in these situations -- everybody handles this different. And I think, with freshmen starting, and our veteran players not being as experienced, this is an interesting thing.
"An inexperienced team like mine, it is hard to predict how they will come out and do with the lights on."
Lamb has scored only 13 points combined in the team's first two NCAA tournament games. But he will be counted upon Friday night, in what could be a high-scoring affair -- both teams are in the top 32 in the country, each averaging above 75 points per game. Lamb said Thursday that after a lot of treatment, his ankle is healed -- "I'm 100 percent now" -- and that his family and friends won't be a distraction.
"I'm not gonna be worried about all my family coming in. I gotta play my game, play like I always do," Lamb said. "Just calm down, just let the game come to me, really -- that's the main goal. Let every shot come to me. If I've got an open shot, take it."
Why not? Three years after leaving New York, Doron Lamb is now one of the best shooters in college basketball.
And a big game (or two) here this weekend is the perfect homecoming script.

Skip to comments.A brief digest of "conservative" Romney's greatest accomplishments
Posted on 04/11/2012 3:11:06 PM PDT by Jim Robinson
Romney's "accomplishments".
1. Implemented/created Gay Marriage in MA
2. Supported and forced Gay Adoption in MA
3. Supported Abortion wholeheartedly
4. Raised taxes/fees over 300% while being Governor of MA
5. Implemented a state-level Cap and Trade system.
6. Supported Man-Made Global Warming
7. Supported the Brady Bill
8. Implemented a state level Assault Weapons Bill after the Federal AWB was allowed to expire
9. Supported TARP
10. Supported Amnesty for Illegal Aliens (Citizenship for those already here)
11. Supported McCain-Kennedy(Amenesty)
12. Implemented a socialized medicine in MA called RomneyCare complete with an Individual Mandate and $50 abortions
13. Nominated 27 Democrats (out of 36 nominations) for judgeships in MA, many of them extreme left-wingers
Honestly, I hate to leave the field to you, but I really can't do this all night.
You've posted lies twice about Gingrich. I have posted the truth. With links. You lose.
I second that. So it's 2-to-1 that NakedRampage loses. Democracy works.
You remember that big brouhaha over the heavily edited clips several months back? The whole clip was eye-opening. The libs HAVE to get rid of Gingrich. And they can only do it by lying.
Please restore this forum to decorum and sanity or you will drive the worst leader of my six decades on earth back into office. The climate of opinion varies by region and era; Most of us could be hanged here for beliefs we once held.
I'm sorry but this is false. Conservative values and principles are written in stone. They are absolutes.
Get bent pal. Santorum is a solid Conservative. Why are you insistent on slamming the man even though he is out of this race now? Your comment isn't even germane to the conversation on this thread.
You won't. Romney's made his positions clear, he loves mandates, says they work. Not in front of some liberal committee, not in some distant time, but his own words, off the cuff at the 2008 Republican debates.
Obama is lazy. Romney works hard to push forward the liberal agenda.
Yes, he sucks. What other options are there? Does he suck more than Obama? Just maybe a little slower than Obama?
What do you figure, man? Abstain from voting?
She ain't running. Had you heard?
You seem to have missed the part where it said, "write-in".
Did you hear yourself? You said, If.
The point is, this nomination battle isn't over yet - unless you're a card carrying buttwipe for the Socialist baby killers.
Either stand up and fight the Socialists on both sides of the fence, or sit down and stop begging good conservatives to lay down their arms.
Should be 'jibe'. Class dismissed.
That is simpleton thinking. You have any fight in you for America? Because 'we' do!
$UPPORT NEWT in anyway you can - unless you are hell bent on helping mitt/barry.
Oh? So why is he all of a sudden getting kissy-kissy with Romney? He's going to endorse him, you know (if he hasn't already).
The man is a fraud, and has been since the start. His whole job during this primary, was to split the conservative vote to help Romney capture the nomination.
You are still at it with your propaganda puke, troll. Still with the unteachable and clueless spirit, I see.
That is a bold faced lie. All day I had to hear about what was Ricks problem for snubbing Milt in his speech yesterday from all sides of the MSM. Milt was double talking about how Rick will come around eventually when asked about not getting any love from him. Rick really slammed Milt in that speech. Called him right out for the slash and burn BS.
On the other hand, we have Newt basically endorsing Milt this weekend on Face the Nation after leaving everyone with the impression he was going to help Rick out. The whole talk about him and Romney both being grandfathers was nauseating. Then his best bud Herman Cain came out and endorsed Romney yesterday and today wants to chat with Milt about 999.
As for that other stupid charge against Rick, if anyone split the vote, it was Newt. He was dead in this race after NC and the election map showed it. The Southern Strategy was absolute fabricated baloney. He failed miserably in those states. He ran behind PAUL for crying out loud in some contests. You can take your unsubstantiated BS and stuff it. Newt siphoned off just enough votes in tight races to hand it to Milt. We have our proof now and it is the election results.
I've been too busy with work today to properly digest every thread on the topic, but I saw several threads this morning that strongly suggested that Santorum is about to make an official pact with Romney. I believe I even read where one of Rick's campaign managers stated the same thing unequivocally.
I've never believed that Santorum was a true conservative from day one, and I still don't buy it. I've posted his Senate voting record here dozens of times, and it's putrid. The votes don't lie. He's a fraud, and I believe that he's in bed with that lying sack of sh!t, Romney.
We'll see what he's really made of over the next week or so.
All your BS spin about being misinformed on Rick citing half baked threads and then doubling down on more BS. I posted you an actual video of Milt being questioned about the opposite of what you posited.
BTW, can you show me your posts to Newt people slamming him for his performance on Face the Nation Easter Sunday talking up Milt? You can't because you are being dishonest in you concern over flippin' endorsements.
I have a $100 bill that says that by the end of the Convention in Tampa, even Palin will endorse Milt. That is how it works if you are in the GOP. Grow up.
Now what the h*ll would YOU know about brilliant?
It's always the ones 'dumb as rocks' who DON'T support Newt. The GOP E relies on those to eat propaganda to regurgitate their pablum as they are putty in their hands.
Either or, both are used.
$UPPORT NEWT in anyway you can - unless you are hell bent on helping mitt/barry.
Luckily Jim has a new nuclear-powered bug zapper.
You, LOL!
As more and more information piles up about Precious Willard, all the RomneyBots will have to peddle are fear and loathing. The best response to them is derision and ridicule.
Absolutely not true. The SCOTUS job is to interpret the Constitution and not to expand or rewrite it. They have declared it a "living document", meaning they can change it, and they have used international law to "interpret" it. They also misused a letter by Jefferson to reverse the meaning of the 1st Amendment. "Separation of church and state" is NOT in the Constitution anywhere. Gingrich proposes to make them do their JOB instead of legislating from the bench.

Thats the reason I'm pulling for Newt.
Kiss this:
So is this. ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!
Mod zotted NakedRampage on this thread as well.
WooHoo!! GOOD JOB!! Toodles to the propaganda spreader, troll.
You're quite welcome. They were two well-deserved zots, for two very different reasons.
What's wrong with you, chessplayer? Stick to checkers, the MSM and lying mitt beat you at their propaganda game with that comment. Newt couldn't have been more clear with his intentions of to make them do their JOB instead of legislating from the bench.
Thank you, NEWT!
Lordy! If anyone deserved a zot, it was that annoying know-it-all and insult machine. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Wow! A day for zots!
Yes, slim pickin's for quite a while there, but now I have to go on my quest for new zot graphics again, LOL!
Mitt did/does NOT belong in the GOP race. Since when is 'his record' a GOP platform? From day one, the candidates should have been saying that about mitt but he surrounded himself with 'conservative' candidates who would 'cover' him and not speak the obvious and now, along, with 'conservatives' those who support him, i.e., Rubio, etc, etc, etc,. Voters have been duped big time!
Threads like these are becoming increasingly common and sadly repugnant. FR used to tolerate and encourage the sharing of our fellow freepers' beliefs. Now, in response to the outrageous conduct of this and the last election, Freepers are becoming just as distasteful as our nation's leaders. Please do not compromise the old soul of FreeRepublic while in contention with our nation's wicked politicians.
"Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
"Well, Ill say one thing about Romney: he doesnt need a teleprompter to lie to us!"
That is the best quote I've heard in a while. Thanks!

BUTTE, Mont. (AP) -- Now that they're allies, Democrats Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton will help each other raise money in a series of fundraisers in New York next week.
Obama campaign spokesman Jen Psaki said the Democratic nominee-in-waiting and Clinton will hold three fundraisers. Two events are scheduled for Wednesday night - one to raise money for his general election campaign and one to help pay off debts from her primary campaign. A third fundraiser, for Obama, is a breakfast Thursday morning with women donors that Clinton, a New York senator, will attend.
The fundraisers will be the first joint appearances by the former foes since their lovefest in Unity, N.H., on June 27.

Ohio police chief hospitalized after eating cannabis cake
He was convinced he was going to die after accidentally eating the pastry that was meant for his daughter
The Metro
LAURELVILLE, Ohio — A police chief was taken to hospital after accidentally eating a cake laced with cannabis that was intended for his younger daughter. Mike Berkemeier was convinced he was going to die after accidentally eating the pastry at his home in Laurelville, Ohio.
He thought it had been left by a friend in sympathy for his eldest daughter who was in hospital after a major road accident. Shortly after eating the cake on Easter Sunday, Mr Berkemeier said he felt disorientated and confused.
'It was flat out the worst experience of my life,' he said. 'I have never felt like I was going to die before. Not knowing what has happened to you and feeling like you have no control over what's happening and not knowing what's happened, is, I can't even describe. 'It's the most awful feeling in the world. I really didn't think I was going to live to see the next day. And that's the God's honest truth.'
