Janeane Garofalo has been married for 20 years and didn't know it.
That has to be some sort of record.
The actress-comedian recently discovered that she and Rob Cohen, a "Big Bang Theory" producer, were legally hitched for the past two decades.
"Rob and I got married, for real, which we had to have a notary dissolve not 30 minutes before we got here tonight," Garofalo said at the New York Comedy Festival reunion for "The Ben Stiller Show," according to the New York Post. "We were married for 20 years until this evening."
Garofalo and Cohen "got married drunk in Vegas ...we dated for a year, and we got married at a drive-through chapel in a cab."
"(We thought) you have to go down to the courthouse and sign papers and stuff, so who knew?" she said. "We were married, and apparently now that (Rob) is getting married for real, his lawyer dug up something."
Cohen is now engaged to Jill Leiderman, a producer on "Jimmy Kimmel Live".
ARIEL WINTER SAGA CONTINUES: The Ariel Winter saga has more drama than any soap opera. The most recent developments are almost too much to keep up with. Here goes:
Ariel's mother said the 14-year-old actress attacked her when she confronted her about her relationship with 18-year-old Cameron Palatas. She claims she caught two in bed together. But friends of Ariel say the romance, which is now over, never got intimate. Sources from Ariel's show "Modern Family" said Ariel's mom, Chrystal Workman, was a "terror" on the set and they had to sneak Ariel food because her mother wouldn't let her eat.
The lawyer for Ariel's 34-year-old sister Shanell Gray, who has had temporary custody of Ariel since Oct. 3, said Workman actually attacked Ariel. And TMZ reported Tuesday that Gray told the judge last month that her mother physically abused her. Her mother denied it, and said Gray actually ran away with a gang member and she found her in a crack house.
Whew. That all came out in one day. When they get to the clones, Bigfoot and space aliens, we'll let you know.
TMZ cited a source from "Modern Family," who has been in "constant contact" with Ariel for more than a year, saying producers wanted Workman banned from the set for making Ariel's life hell. She allegedly berated her for her physical appearance, saying her ears were too big and she looked ugly in her clothes. She also blocked Ariel from eating anything but egg whites and raw veggies. The crew supposedly hatched a plan to sneak the teen food when her mother wasn't looking.
She also supposedly complained loudly about Ariel's salary, saying her daughter needed more to pay for their house, her agents, managers, and publicists.
Right. The kid was the one who needed all that money.
According to a transcript from last month's hearing, TMZ reported Gray's lawyer said "The child (Ariel) is, apparently, struck repeatedly, slapped, hit, pushed, not so as to leave marks. Mother is smart enough not to do that."
Workman countered by saying "She is an actress so I'm sure she can cry at the drop of a hat." The lawyer also said Workman "sexualizes the child," and showed the judge a picture of Ariel "dressed up to show off her breasts and otherwise."
JUSTIN BIEBER AND SELENA GOMEZ TRY TO IRON OUT THEIR ISSUES: Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez met Sunday night at a hotel in New York City, but did not get back together, according to TMZ.
Sigh (sad face).
Sources connected with the former couple said they met to talk about the conflict that caused them to break up, which are supposedly Bieber tweeting photos of him with supermodels, scheduling conflicts, and Bieber tweeting photos of him with supermodels.
Allegedly nothing was resolved.
Another sigh (more sad face).
TMZ said sources have told the site Bieber is conflicted about getting back together with Gomez. He still likes her, but he also likes the idea of messing around, and he's saying the supermodels he's been hanging out with are tempting.
I hate famous 18-year-olds.
FINALLY, THEY APPEAR TOGETHER: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart appeared on the red carpet together Monday night at the Hollywood premiere of the final "Twilight" film "Breaking Dawn Part 2."
Finally. OMG and :) and LOL and whatnot.
I think other people were there too. But everyone was all about seeing Stewart and Pattinson all dressed up and looking pretty at a "Twilight" premiere again, after last summer's ugly scandal involving Stewart cheating on real-life boyfriend Pattinson with her "Snow White and the Huntsman" director Rupert Sanders, who's, like, totally old and gross and stuff.
The pair greeted fans, signed autographs, and clearly were into each other, as per page seven, section five, paragraph two of their contracts state they have to be. Stewart even went as far as to affectionately (no, really) run Pattinson's back as photographers snapped pictures.
And because fashion is so important to all of us, know that 22-year-old Stewart wore a nude lace and chiffon strapless corset gown by Zuhair Murad, with her hair swept to one side in curls. Pattinson, 26, had a fresh haircut and a lovely forest green suit.
Unlike prior "Twilight" tours, the couple has promoted the new film separately, appearing on the "Today Show" and late night programs days apart. They've been vague about whether they're back together, which we all know they are (duh), because they're totally, like, made for each other, LOL, smiley face.
KATY PERRY TAMING JOHN MAYER: Not only are Katy Perry and John Mayer somehow miraculously still together, but some are speculating that Perry has become the one woman who has finally tamed Mayer.
Well, at least we're speculating ... .
The New York Post asked if Katy Perry has "tamed (the) infamous ladies' man," because he seems to be ignoring other women.
Apparently, after performing at a benefit concert in Manhattan on Thursday, Mayer hit a restaurant packed with women with some pals.
"John was at a table with friends at Cafe Luxembourg after the show, and a line of girls kept coming up to him," says an eyewitness. "He was clearly not available. It seemed like the opposite of the way he's been in the past, like he's really settled down."
At one point, added the source, he was approached by a "particularly stunning fan," but when he couldn't tear his eyes from his phone, she asked, "Are you talking to Katy?" before slinking away.
Maybe he was just playing Angry Birds.
Mayer and Perry, who began their up-and-down relationship last summer, reportedly rendezvoused Sunday in Malibu, a date about which the London Sun relays a funny little story.
According to the tabloid, the pair was at The Polo Lounge in Beverly Hills when Perry's ex-husband, Russell Brand, strolled in.
"As soon as Katy saw Russell, she hid under the table," said a source. "When he was directed to one far away, she emerged. John threw some money on the table, and they headed to the back door and their waiting car."
Does Russell Brand smell bad or something?
Brand supposedly remained oblivious, says the spy, "but everyone in the restaurant saw what happened."
Uh-huh. Of course they did.

Statement by Marion C. Blakey, President of the Aerospace Industries Association, on discussion of sequestration during the second Presidential Debate:
Arlington, Va. – "It's a shame that tonight's debate didn't address the 800 lb. gorilla in the room in today's politics – the upcoming "fiscal cliff" and sequestration cuts that will together plunge our economy into recession and threaten our national security."
"Both campaigns have public positions on these issues – this debate was the perfect opportunity to contrast the two positions and offer the American people a choice. Regardless of the winner in November's election, if sequestration isn't fixed, American citizens will be on the losing end of this poorly-conceived idea. We need quick action in the lame duck Congress to stop this looming threat. These debates should be used to provide clarity on the most pressing issue of our day."

NEW BEDFORD — A Colombian couple that met 25 years ago in the Our Lady of Guadalupe parish and fell in love with New Bedford is planning to open a Mexican restaurant on Acushnet Avenue this spring.
Owner Fernando Giraldo said he has no experience in the food industry but has been saving for years to one day open a family restaurant with longtime partner Martha Gonzalez that their children can work in and inherit.
"It's like a dream," said Giraldo, 63, who moved to New Bedford in 1986 and works as a painter. "Never think about failing. Think that it's going to be good."
The designs for the 1262 Acushnet Avenue property, which must be approved by the building department before renovation starts, call for a 50-seat dining area and bar.
On Monday, the Licensing Board will hold a public hearing about the transfer of the liquor license to the restaurant.
The couple is hoping to open Adriana's Mexican Restaurant in May, in time for the birthday of their daughter, for whom the restaurant is named.
The couple settled on Mexican food because it seems popular, said Gonzalez, 58, a manager at the Greater New Bedford Health Center's Wellness Connection.
Giraldo said he expects to hire about 10 people and has sunk about $450,000 into the project, a cost that includes the restaurant property and another lot for parking.
"I'm in debt for the rest of my life now," he said.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The challenge the Sharks face Tuesday night against the Washington Capitals goes beyond stopping Alexander Ovechkin, though that's a formidable enough task on its own.
After all, Ovechkin leads the NHL with 32 goals (seven more than Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins) and 238 shots (51 more than Patrick Sharp of the Chicago Blackhawks).
"You've got to be moving. You can't really be standing still. He's one of those guys that can beat you with his foot speed," defenseman Dan Boyle said of Ovechkin after an optional Tuesday morning skate. "He definitely is a special player and you're going to have your hands full. Not one guy is going to do it. It's going to be the five guys on the ice against him."
But Ovechkin isn't Washington's leading scorer. That honor goes to center Nicklas Backstrom, whose 48 points are two more than the Russian superstar has accumulated.
"Backstrom is an elite passer," Sharks coach Todd McLellan said. "Backstrom to Washington is Jumbo to San Jose. He's got that vision, he's got the patience. He delivers the puck very softly so people receiving it can handle it. They don't play Ovechkin and Backstrom together any more so their depth is spread throughout the lineup and that makes it even tougher."
Both are on the top power play unit, however, and that may explain why the Captials' success rate of 25.2 percent is tied with Pittsburgh for tops in the NHL.
"They run the same system night after night and teams have a tough time stopping it so they're obviously doing something right," McLellan said. "If we can disrupt them before they get set up, it'll certainly work in our favor. . . .But a lot of teams have tried it and haven't been successful."
The Sharks will have Antti Niemi in net against the Capitals, whose first-year head coach Adam Oates is expected to go with rookie Phillip Grubaeur who is 6-2-4 with a 2.15 goals against average and a .934 save percentage.
San Jose has a 16-1 record against Washington since the year 2000, with the lone loss coming in 2009. But neither the players nor McLellan were putting much stock in that dominating history.
"We haven't played this team for two years, we haven't played this team under a new head coach," McLellan said. "Out go the records."

The event? My son and now daughter-in-law's bridal shower-bachelor-bachelorette party. What a day we had, starting with the traditional bridal shower in the afternoon and ending with a bunch of slightly/moderately/severely inebriated people on an old rented tricked out school bus. The bus driver toted us from bar to bar and we picked up and dropped off people along the way. We even had my 90 year old mother on that bus for a short time after the bridal shower before dropping her back off at the nursing home. She admitted to me that she'd never ridden a school bus before and I assured her that this was NOT how we typically rode the school bus back when I was a kid. (would have been fun though, don't ya think?)
Anyway, this post brought back some really funny (and a few embarrassing) memories of that day and I'd like to extend the offer to play along to any of my fellow bloggers who'd like to have a little bit of midweek fun. Go find your sixth photo and your inner child!

Autism Talk TV – Episode 11
This is a guest post by Alex Plank, an autistic adult who founded the online community Wrong Planet. Alex is a graduate of George Mason University.
If You Could Say it in Words is a great new film about an autistic protagonist Nelson and his experience with love. The film came out on DVD yesterday, November 23, 2010. In this episode of Autism Talk TV, I switch sides of the camera and get interviewed along with director Nicholas Gray and actors Alvin Keith and Marin Ireland about the project. Nicholas has graciously offered to allow approved nonprofits to screen the film for for benefits and community events.
I first learned about If You Could Say it in Words in October of 2006. I was contacted by the director, Nicholas Gray, who had found my interview of Heather Kuzmich from America's Next Top Model.
After getting the chance to watch the film, I was very excited. I interviewed Nicholas, and actor Alvin Keith, at my home in Virginia. Shortly after the interview was published, I posted a review of the movie to Wrong Planet, in which I described the film as having "the most authentic portrayal of an autistic person that I've ever seen in the movies." After I had posted these two articles to Wrong Planet, director Nicholas Gray and I became friends. Needless to say, I was very happy when he called me and told me that he had secured a distributor for the film.
Nicholas licensed my documentary 'autism reality' to include in the special features of the DVD for If You Could Say it in Words. In addition, he asked me to produce a documentary about the plight of the undiagnosed Aspie.
Nicholas has graciously offered to allow approved nonprofits to screen the film for community events. Some nonprofits have already taken advantage of this program. You can contactAdam Eisenstein if your organization is interested showing If You Could Say it in Words at one of your events. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
Now, please enjoy episode 11 of Autism Talk TV!

OAKLAND -- It was a cold December afternoon at Miss Pearl's Jam House on Jack London Square, and a group of men sat at a long table hunched over laptops. One of them was Temoor Noor, owner of Oakland's Grand Tavern gastro pub, who had the heavy-lidded stare of someone who was defying the body's natural requirement for sleep. Miss Pearl's days were numbered: The Southern-themed restaurant would be closing in less than two weeks to make way for Lungomare, whose theme would be Italian, specifically from Tuscany and Liguria.
The men at the table -- one of them Chop Bar's Chris Pastena -- were making plans for the new menu and floor plan, paid for in part by local financier Tom Henderson.
Opening night was Feb. 7, several months after the much-anticipated fine-dining Haven restaurant debuted and just a few weeks after the opening of The Forge Pizza, next to Bocanova.
The new restaurants have not solved the problems with the square's blueprint, which never quite fit the location. But the new restaurateurs seem to understand how to play to the built-in strengths of a harbor.
The greatest strength would be the water, Lungomare's manager, Ami Alexander, said.
"Have you seen our patio?" Alexander said, looking toward the glass-enclosed patio and sparkling water as a group of four walked in. "Inside or outside?" one of them, a woman, asked her companions.
"This is nice," she said, while she walked past a sheet of water that now divides the entrance from the bar and lounge. "They left the bar the same."
"It's the configuration that changed," one of the men with her added.
The bar is the same only topped by a beige surface. Noor and Pastena added a cafe as well, which is a welcome addition on the square and makes good use of the lounge during daytime hours. (Be warned though that a cappuccino costs $4.36 with tax.)
Heat lamps warm tables outside, and at least one comes with a fire pit and lounge chairs. Inside, the new décor is amber, red and black, less bright and brash than it used to be and more alluring. A couple next to me at the L-shaped bar courted each other as they quietly sipped cocktails the color of soft sunshine. I drank a $12 glass of lagrien red with an $11 appetizer of baby squid covered in a rich red sauce and perched on a small cake made from chickpeas.
Former City Councilman Ignacio De La Fuente emerged from the vast dining area in the back. I am certain he pretended not to see me waving from the bar.
After an hour or so, I slid off the stool and walked over to Forge, the other new addition to Jack London Square. I expected it to be a temple where diners would worship obsessively tended dough and sauce made from Early Girl tomatoes. It was a fair assumption given that Forge's "pizza program" was designed by The Pizza Hacker, Jeff Krupman, and the pizzaiolo is Jeff Hayden of Boot and Shoe Service. The pizzas are perfectly blistered in a Valoriani oven, the Ferrari of pizza ovens, imported from Italy. Forge's pedigree also involves Kuleto's and Moose.
But Forge takes after its other comfort food siblings in Orinda, Table 24 and Barbacoa, a wood-fired Mexican grill. And despite the reclaimed wood, skyscraper ceilings and rustic metal, Forge feels like a brew pub. Booths along the far wall fill with a mixture of parents, kids and couples. Happy clusters of friends seem to gravitate toward the communal table. One of several tables for 10 in the back was filled on one side with five gray-haired customers who faced five 20-somethings. Forge is not the sports bar some people expected. Several TVs are visible from nearly anywhere in the room, including the rectangular bar that divides what is often a very loud room.
Outside is a sanctuary. Forge capitalized on the waterfront real estate by creating an outside gazebo with tables and two inviting fire pits surrounded by low-slung wood patio chairs.
"We started off thinking pizza and beer," owner Michael Karp said. "We wanted it to be comfortable and all about the food."
If the restaurants on Jack London Square were boats, Forge would be a 60-foot yacht with a party on the deck out in the bay.
Lungomare would be an Italian cruiser off the coast of Italy, while Bocanova would be sailing from the Gulf of Mexico to the Caribbean Sea. Haven could be a sailboat or a racing catamaran.
Heinold's First and Last Chance Saloon, by contrast, would be the sturdy old fishing boat that has outlasted the fancy yachts; she just needs a fresh coat of paint from time to time.
Scott's Seafood Restaurant would be one of those deluxe fishing vessels that take out happy tourists for a day on the water. That's where I headed next.
Louis Armstrong was playing when I walked into Scott's and a woman at the bar tipped back her beer glass to capture the last swig. I ordered a glass of 12-year-old Glenfiddich that numbed my gums.
Michael Bublé sang "Cry Me a River," and I stared at highlights of the NBA All-Star Game on the TV above the bar.
I remembered what Deputy Mayor Sandré Swanson told me back in January during Oakland Restaurant Week. We were at City Hall listening to an account of food and drink in Oakland's history. Restaurants show a city's culture and hospitality before anything else, he said. "Scott's and Kincaid's have been keeping Jack London Square going until other places can get there," he said.

Game of Thrones is a site for the HBO-series based on George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire.
New to the series? Read our spoiler-free review of A Game of Thrones.
Read our Privacy Policy.
The eldest of Lord Eddard's two daughters, Sansa is everything a young maiden should be: sweet, gentle, pretty, able to dance and sing and embroider, and quite innocent. She loves stories of romance and chivalry, and would love nothing better than to marry a beautiful prince and give him beautiful children. Naturally, she does not get along with tomboyish younger sister, Arya, nor does she think much of her half-brother Jon because of his illegitimacy. In looks, she takes after Lady Catelyn with her auburn hair, but Catelyn says that Sansa's beauty will surpass hers.
Sansa has been aged 2 years, to 13, in comparison to the novel.
The Westeros network consists of several different sites, including a forum and a wiki, for all your A Song of Ice and Fire needs.

Our fabulous OSF actors excel at rote memorization of arcane language, but most kids would do anything to avoid it. Not so for the daughter of Ken Ludwig, an award-winning playwright and possibly Shakespeare's greatest fan. His book, "How to Teach Your Children Shakespeare," is a guide to introducing kids to literature and a celebration of Shakespeare's work. Early in the book he explains that when his daughter was in first grade he decided that if there was only one area of learning and culture he could give her at this stage in both their lives, it would be Shakespeare.
Ludwig began by teaching his daughter lines from his favorite Shakespeare comedies. He then expanded his teachings to the tragedies and included his young son. "The key to introducing Shakespeare" writes Ludwig, "so that it doesn't feel daunting and yet has real integrity is to memorize it." Ludwig starts with just a few words, then a few lines and finally whole speeches. "The point is, Shakespeare is like a foreign language, in order to know it we need to understand every word, then practice until we feel comfortable," he writes.
For example, start with "I know a bank where the wild thyme blows," from "A Midsummer Night's Dream." Ludwig suggests children repeat the line four or five times, maybe exaggerate the sounds or do it in a funny accent and voila, a bit of Shakespeare they won't forget. From there, move on to larger and larger passages. In the beginning, he suggests making a game of it, have the children exaggerate the sounds such as the long "o" in "know" or "blows." Parents can make it a contest to see who can exaggerate the sound more. "Silly, yes," he says. "But I doubt that they'll ever forget the line after this." In general, Ludwig states, "Remember, always, always make the memorization a game for your children. Chest tones, patty-cake, marching, shouting, acting, wearing hats and cloaks, contests, bets, painting on mustaches, bribery by chocolate, whatever it takes."
Ludwig and his children memorized 25 Shakespearean passages together, from Oberon's plot against Titania in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" to Prospero's speech in "The Tempest." He writes that while educating his children on the subject of Shakespeare, he spent invaluable time with them. Learning passages and discussing their meaning with his kids provided them with hundreds of hours of one-on-one time that they otherwise might not have shared.
The book's tone is passionate. Ludwig explains why one would even bother to teach their kids Shakespeare. Shakespeare is a learning tool, he says, something for children to lean on and gain confidence from as they grow up. We quote Shakespeare to articulate universal truths or sentiments. Riffing on Falstaff's wit, Ludwig goes on to say that "Shakespeare is not only creative in himself — he is the cause of creation in other writers." Being able to read Shakespeare's work with intelligence and understanding will enrich children's lives and inspire them to write.
Ludwig's process, from memorization techniques to tips on explaining the plays, verse, images and characters, is laid out in simple steps with plenty of examples that work for teachers, parents or anyone interested in a fun way to learn about Shakespeare's plays. The book also includes exercises on characterization, metaphor and acting tips, and a list of additional resources.
Whether or not you're a Shakespeare lover, Ludwig's memorization techniques can enhance understanding of any type of literature. He writes, "In order to memorize something, you have to be very specific and honest with yourself. You have to work slowly and you have to understand every word of what you memorize." He laments that the tradition of memorization, once a pillar of academic education, "has faded from our lives and something powerful has been lost."

The Vermont community of St. Johnsbury is taking a closer look at putting a police officer in school.
The St. Johnsbury School Board of Directors is looking at two options. Both are a response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shootings in Newtown, Conn., last year.
Police Chief Clem Houde said the school can hire the department to provide an officer part time. The school also can provide the department an office.
Houde also suggested a computer with access to the police department's database.
School Director Becky Baldauf, board chairwoman, said some people think a police officer may sour outsiders considering a move to town who may think it's not safe.
Houde said a police officer should not impact outsiders' perception of the school.

When Susi Damilano and her husband, Bill English, launched the SF Playhouse 10 years ago, they had a budget of about $35. They had no subscribers, so they sold tickets to theatergoers near Union Square. Now their little startup troupe is all grown up, with more than 2,000 subscribers, a $1.2 million budget and a glowing reputation for provocative fare. Now dubbed the San Francisco Playhouse, the troupe has carved out a niche as an adventurous theater that embraces daring new plays such as Gina Gionfriddo's "Becky Shaw," Martin McDonagh's "The Behanding in Spokane" and Annie Baker's "The Aliens."
On the eve of the theater's 10th anniversary season, the troupe also is relocating from its current space to a bigger, swankier venue at 450 Post St., previously the home of the Lorraine Hansberry Theatre. Damilano recently took a few minutes away from her day job as a human resources honcho for an email interview about this turning point in the life of the company.
Q There is so much going on right now with the Playhouse. Which is the bigger milestone: turning 10 or moving into new digs?
A It's impossible to separate the two events; it feels as if one is happening because of the other. We've been looking for a permanent home since we founded the theater, and to have this dream come to fruition on this particular anniversary just feels right.
Q Do you feel like the company has arrived with this move?
A It absolutely feels like we've arrived! I'm guessing this is how many stars feel when they have a hit movie and are called an overnight success after 10 years of working hard. We've been called "San Francisco's best kept secret," well, now, the secret is out!
Q Why did you want to christen the theater with the musical "Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson?"
A We selected "BBAJ" the second Bill saw it at the Public. He loved that it is hilarious and really smart and a perfect complement to fall's election season. And now that we have the new space, wow, it is going to be an extravaganza. Nina Ball designed an incredible set that resembles the dome on the capital building as it's being built. We'll have a rock band, and Ashkon Davaran will dazzle us with his version of Andrew Jackson.
Q What is your fave part of the new venue, and what will you call it?
A Where do I begin? I love that we have three stories of dressing rooms. After nine years of squishing people, it feels like a mansion. The stage: magnificent; the lobby: I can't wait to update it and bring it back to its original splendor. This is a historic building and full of beautiful handcrafted woodwork done in 1925 by the Elks, who built the building after the earthquake in 1906. We are going to spruce it all up and give it new life. And since this will be our new home, it will now be called the San Francisco Playhouse, though we are dedicating the auditorium to Walter Casper Teufel; it was his bequeath that made this move possible.
Q Why change the name of the company from SF Playhouse to the more formal San Francisco Playhouse?
A We are starting to gain a national reputation and are representing San Francisco, which makes us proud. Plus, it feels "grown up" to use our full name.
Q Do you think you can attract new audiences with the move?
A Absolutely -- one of the reasons we're moving is to accommodate our growing audience. This past season we nearly sold out every show. We now have double the capacity of our former space.
Q How have you managed to grow as quickly as you have?
A Bill has a degree in theater from Northwestern University and has been part of the Bay Area theater scene his whole life. He's also a contractor and I'm a CPA by trade -- turns out our backgrounds blend perfectly as a production team.
Q Do you think running the company makes your marriage stronger?
A This theater is our 10-year-old child and has pushed both of us to grow in ways we never anticipated when we got married. We really respect each other's opinions and each think the other is a genius, so for the most part, it makes for a great marriage. When we disagree, it's tough, but we have made a pact that whoever wants it more, aka fights harder, gets to win. The other has to cook dinner, ha ha!

This week, I've been sharing some videos of Volition's new (tremendously fun) open-world crime game Saints Row: The Third. On Monday, we saw how I start each day in Steelport, and yesterday I showed a cool refinement of its custom radio stations.
That second video was fairly low-key, so today I thought I'd delve a bit deeper into the customization in this game. Saints Row: The Third's character creator is nothing if not far-reaching, with options for all manner of race, size, shape, crazy skin color, and even voice. What's nice about it is that it isn't all faders and sliders—it's much more concerned with the more outsized aspects of your character. The voices are remarkable—I tend to favor the british dude, and the voice actor really brings it. The other voices sound good too, and it's still a bit staggering that also… the zombie option, which I get into towards the end of the video.
So, take a look—this gives another taste of the game's deep customizability, as well as its general tone of generosity to the player and goofiness. If you ever wanted to play an open-world game as a naked elderly zombie who speaks only in gutteral grunts and screeches, well… your game has arrived.

My brother showed up with 4 people which was a total surprise. The crowd was really not big enough to make me think I should play CT more often. The sound was atrocious and my ears are still ringing. But everyone put on a damn good show. I was having fun even though I was antagonizing Mr. Dolan to no end. But when I rap I really need a lot of space around me or else I start getting anxieties. haha

I did read the post on this board regarding the show. I went there to see everyone perform, just like I had gone to the benefit show in Providence. In my head I thought it was going to be like the providence show
Further I was pretty ampted up for the show after driving an hour and a half to get to it.
I'm not going to apologize for being confused or disappointed for thinking it would be like the Prov show, I just wanted to discuss different aspects of the show and provide feedback.
Overall, i thought it was a good show.

Seib & Wessel: What We're Reading Tuesday
Seib & Wessel: Full Grover Norquist Interview
By Gerald F. Seib and David Wessel
Recommended reading from around the Web:
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who has been traveling the country recruiting companies to move to Texas, writes that the formula for states to grow is "low taxes, smart regulations and fair courts," and he specifically cites Missouri, Maryland and Illinois as states that need to "improve their jobs climate." [USA Today]
Shane Harris (@shanewharris) writes that senior leaders at the NSA "are angry and dispirited by what they see as the White House's failure to defend the spy agency against criticism of its surveillance programs" and feel they have been "left twisting in the wind." [Foreign Policy]
The Obama administration has known for several years that many Americans would lose their insurance plans with the advent of the president's new health law, write Lisa Myers (@LisaMyers) and Hannah Rappleye (@HRappleye); the law contained a provision allowing insurers to continue providing existing policies that don't meet the legislation's new standards, but then Health and Human Services officials "narrowed that provision, by saying that if any part of a policy was significantly changed since that date — the deductible, co-pay, or benefits, for example — the policy would not be grandfathered." [NBC News]
Even if the federal health exchange's website doesn't meet its targeted repair date, the program will not unravel, writes Jonathan Cohn (@CitizenCohn). The plan's provisions to provide subsidies and reimburse insurance plans that enroll more sick people than expected will prevent it from entering a "death spiral," he says, and insurers will have incentive to keep their rates low to attract customers in 2015. [New Republic]
The 2014 midterms could determine the Senate majority for the next decade, making the elections a make-or-break moment for the GOP, writes Charlie Cook (@CookPolitical). Republicans will be "playing defense, not offense" in 2016 and will have few opportunities to gain seats in the chamber, he says. [National Journal]
Molly Jackman (@MollyJackman), Saul Jackman (@JackmanSaul) and Grace Wallack (@Grace_Wallack) conclude that the inability of Congress to deal with the farm bill demonstrates that enacting spending cuts under pressure of a budget debate leads to ineffective policy. "The last time Congress attempted to cap farm payments in 1996, aggregate spending for farm subsidies actually increased." [Brookings]
Al Hunt (@AlHuntDC) writes that the budget committee, whose task is compounded by misinformation, has two options: failure, which would leave sequestration in place, or a short-term package of entitlements cuts and new revenue to replace sequestration. Cracking down on tax breaks and trimming a few write-offs keeps alive the chance for more radical tax reform later and wouldn't much affect marginal rates, he writes. [Bloomberg View]
Michael Schaffer (@michaelschaffer) parodies Politco's Playbook as if it were written during the Civil War, including top-hat tips and a message from Union-Pacific. An excerpt: "Play-book facts of life: … If it emerges that [the president] actually issued the proclamation because he believes involuntary bondage is an immoral affront to human dignity, we could be looking at months of hearings." [The New Republic]
What We're Writing
Research Cuts Ought to Worry Business: In Capital Journal, Jerry Seib writes that automatic spending cuts are affecting the kind of basic research that has been worth billions to U.S. businesses over the decades. [Chart: Estimated R&D cuts]
Our Videos
The Next Budget Battle: In an interview with Jerry Seib, Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist previews the coming budget battle in Washington, what leverage Republicans have left after the government shutdown and what he wants to see happen with entitlements.
Sign of the Times
Minor milestones we've spotted:
Democrat Terry McAuliffe has a 12-point lead over Republican Ken Cuccinnelli, 51% to 39%, among likely voters in Virginia's race for governor, according to a Washington Post/Abt SRBI poll. [Washington Post]
China, seeking returns, has shifted the share of its overseas direct investment going to rich countries from just a tenth in 2002 to two-thirds last year. [The Economist]
Divorce rates in Beijing are up 41% since last year, as homeowners seek to take advantage of a new loophole that allows divorced couples to sell their houses tax-free, with certain conditions. [MSN]
People using food stamps buy more carbonated soft drinks (42% more Coke and 94% more Pepsi) than the national average and 110% more Doritos, according to InfoScout. [Ad Age]
Nearly as many children (7%) have tablets today as their parents (8%) did two years ago, a Common Sense Media study found. By the time they're eight years old, American children spend an hour and 55 minutes a day on average looking at a screen. [Quartz]
Penn State is to pay $59.7 million to 26 men over claims that they were sexual abused by football coach Jerry Sandusky. [WSJ]
In Manhattan, property sales in flood zones rose twice as fast as in other parts of the borough after Superstorm Sandy, climbing 26.9% in the third quarter over the same quarter in 2012 versus 12.3% elsewhere in the borough. [WSJ]
Nearly 80% of college students say they text in class, a University of Nebraska-Lincoln researcher found. [The Atlantic]
There will be 24 GOP Senate seats up in 2014 and 10 Democratic seats. Seven of the Republican seats are in states President Obama carried in 2012. [Charlie Cook]

The colonoscopy is used to identify and remove colon polyps. Your healthcare provider may recommend specific follow-up if colon polyps have been identified and removed. Follow-up is important as part of the treatment plan and is different based on your diagnosis and history.
If the colon polyp biopsy is positive for colon cancer, you will be referred to a surgeon and/or cancer specialist, also called an oncologist. The oncologist will recommend a combination of treatment based on your stage of cancer. Treatment may include surgery, radiation therapy, and/or chemotherapy.
Screening tests are important to identify and remove colon polyps before they potentially develop into colon cancer. A colonoscopy is recommended for everyone every 10 years after the age of 50. An alternative to a colonoscopy may be a stool sample and a sigmoidoscopy every 3-5 years. Colonoscopies may be recommended at a younger age and more frequently if there is increased risk of developing colon cancer.
Also important in preventing colon polyps and colon cancer is a healthy lifestyle. A healthy lifestyle includes:
Your healthcare provider may recommend other measures you can take based on your history. Remember, regular screening tests and follow-up visits with you healthcare provider are important to prevent and treat colon polyps and colon cancer.

SAN JOSE -- For the Sharks, this was the NHL trade deadline that wasn't.
General manager Doug Wilson has stayed out of the final-day fray before, but Wednesday marked the first time in his tenure that he's stayed on the sidelines for the final month of the trade window.
"We came into the deadline with the approach that we believed in our players," Wilson said. "A lot of our decisions were impacted on health issues, and several of them were clarified in the last little while."
Inside the locker room, players welcomed the faith shown by management.
"I'm glad we get to have another kick at the can," defenseman Dan Boyle said. "We did some good things at the end of last year, and we brought up some good kids this year. I'm definitely happy with our locker room, and I'm glad that people upstairs and people behind the bench believe in us, also."
Wilson, who became G.M. in May 2003, signaled last month that once a half-dozen injured players that included Logan Couture and Raffi Torres were healthy, he felt San Jose would finally be close to the team he thought he was constructing last summer.
Rookie Tomas Hertl does remain out long-term as he recovers from knee surgery. But Wilson said he held off determining a deadline strategy until he could see how another rookie, Matt Nieto, would perform in Hertl's spot after the Olympic break because Nieto injured his foot in the final game before the three-week shutdown.
"He was actually a crucial piece for us, to know that he was going to be healthy and be able to play at a high level," Wilson said of Nieto, who had the winning goal Sunday in San Jose's 4-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils.
But beyond health considerations, the Sharks also were limited in what they could do at the deadline by the NHL salary cap. When Torres and Couture came off long-term injured reserve, San Jose was above the $64.3 million payroll cap. But the team quickly became compliant when Brad Stuart was placed on injured reserve, excluding his salary from cap considerations.
Had the Sharks made one of the big-name, high-salaried deadline acquisitions of players such as New York Islanders forward Thomas Vanek ($5.75 million cap hit), a player or players making a similar amount of money would have had to be lopped off the payroll one way or the other. Vanek, instead, was traded to Montreal.
And Wilson's options were limited because some of the Sharks' top-end veterans have clauses in their contracts that limit or prevent trades without their approval.
None of which is to suggest Wilson wasn't working the phones, trying to see what was out there.
The Sharks did consider bringing back forward Devin Setoguchi, now with the Winnipeg Jets. And TSN analyst Pierre LeBrun said San Jose went "pretty far down the road" in talks with the New York Rangers for Ryan Callahan, who became part of the day's biggest deal when he went to the Tampa Bay Lightning in exchange for Martin St. Louis. Wilson declined to comment on that report.
Wilson characterized this year's trade deadline as a "rental market" and said the Sharks were not about to give up the younger players that sellers were looking for in return.
"We've worked hard to do this reset-refresh to get to this point," Wilson said, using the term he coined a year ago when the Sharks traded away Ryane Clowe, Douglas Murray and Michal Handzus before bringing in Torres and Scott Hannan. "We weren't going to sacrifice things just to make a change to look like we did something."
And both Wilson and coach Todd McLellan pointed out that there won't be the challenge of familiarizing outside players with the Sharks system. Overall, McLellan sounded anything but disappointed that there wasn't an infusion of outside talent.
"We're excited about it," he said. "When we put everything together, there is some cohesiveness, and there's a unity amongst our team that is nice to have moving forward."

Travel & Leisure Market Research Reports & Industry Analysis
Global political and economic events in the 21st century, including the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the Great Recession of 2008, have greatly affected the travel and leisure industry.
But recent data indicate that the industry's fortunes may have started to recover. For example, a study published by industry event organizer World Travel Mart reported that, in 2012 for the first time, more than 1 billion global trips were made. The airline industry group IATA said airline revenues would increase from $7.4 billion in 2012 to $11.7 billion in 2013, rising to $16.4 billion in 2014.
And, the tourism industry itself is undergoing rapid change. Social media has given a new, free forum for travelers to comment on all aspects of the travel experience, while alternatives to traditional lodging and transportation (such as AirBnB and Uber) offer travelers new options for their traveling experience, while challenging traditional operators.
MarketResearch.com's collection of market research studies on the tourism industry will help you stay competitive and grow in this rebounding and evolving market. We offer nearly 30,000 studies on subjects ranging from modes of transportation and lodging to travel accessories and forms of entertainment. Also available are a complete collection of country-specific tourism reports.

Physics is a challenging yet highly rewarding field. One of the first challenges faced by the student is deciding, of the five physics options offered by the department, which to pursue—with each option comes a new set of exciting opportunities!
A student graduating from the department receives a BA or BS in Physics with one of the following five degree options:
Standard Physics
Emphasizes the coursework expected of students planning graduate studies in physics or a closely related field. Students have the flexibility to choose upper division electives in physics or related areas.
Applied Physics
Prepares students for industrial employment or graduate work in applied physics including nanotechnology, biophysics, medical physics, environmental physics, and geophysics.
Materials Science ~New!~
Emphasizes the materials aspects of physical science, and, in particular, emphasizes the relationship between a material's properties and its structure. Prepares students for industrial employment or graduate work.
Engineering Physics
Prepares students for graduate school or careers at technical companies. Coursework is designed with flexibility that allows students to focus on their engieneering emphasis of choice (e.g., biomedical, chemical, electrical/computer, environmental, nuclear engineering).
Physics-Engineering Dual Degree
Allows a student to earn a BA or BS in physics from SOU and a BS in engineering from Oregon State University (OSU). At SOU the students can complete all of the engineering requirements for the chosen department of the OSU professional engineering program, and most of the requirements for the SOU applied physics option. At OSU, students in this program complete SOU's physics degree requirements, along with OSU's professional engineering requirements. Students are eligible to receive a degree from SOU upon completion of the University's requirements and a minimum of 24 credits of upperdivision engineering at OSU. This program provides many career options for students interested in physics and engineering.
In addition, the department offers the opportunity for a Business-Physics co-Major. Interested students should consult Dr. Wu, the program coordinator.
Teaching physics at the middle school or high school level in Oregon public schools requires that a student first complete a bachelor's degree in physics and then applies for admission to SOU's Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program. Interested students should consult the physics department chair or Dr. Siem, who acts as the liason between the department and SOU's School of Education.
How do I declare a Physics major?
Declaring a major is one of the most important decisions an undergraduate student will make. Students who are interested in the physics major (and who wouldn't be?) are advised to discuss the major with a member of the physics faculty, to enroll in the introductory astronomy sequence (PH 112-113), and to complete calculus I (math 251) their freshmen year.
The Chair of the department will provide the prospective student with information regarding the department; the major; the options for the major; special departmental programs, opportunities, and events; and the necessary requirements and paperwork.
Those who declare physics as their major will be given an advisor in the physics department. The student will necessarily meet with the advisor on a regular basis to ensure that all departmental and university requirements are being met.

It's been a slow climb, but the Fort Hays State football team has been moving in an upward direction each of head Coach Chris Brown's seasons in Hays. In 2011 the Tigers were 4-7, a one win improvement over the final season under Kevin Verdugo. Last season, FHSU upped the record to 5-6. On Saturday, the Tigers could continue the upward trend. A win over Nebraska-Kearney would give Fort Hays a 6-5 record in 2013.
"I think it's just taking the steps," said Brown. "It's probably not as fast as everyone wants it. In this conference it's not going to happen real fast, it's going to take time. But it's showing that there is progress and we are going in the right direction."
That is why six wins is an important landmark for a Tiger team, who started the year 0-4 and looked like it might have taken a step back in Brown's third season. Even though they had a five game winning streak snapped last weekend, getting to six wins for the first time since 2009 would be big for FHSU, especially since it has only three winning seasons since 2000.
"My true freshman year was the last time we has a winning season," said senior Tanner Hageman. "You can't say how important it is to go 6-5. You really can't express how big that is for a program, just to show that you are winning and doing the right things."
Winning isn't the only noticeable change on the field, this season has been packed with a lot of big mile stones: Most points scored since becoming a collegiate team, first punt return for a touchdown since 2009 and first five game winning streak since 2004. A step in the right direction, but definitely not the end game.
"From week one-two-three- and four I didn't think we were very solid," said Brown. "But I think these last six weeks we have really come together as a team. I think that we are getting close to being that top tier team. I think we might be a year or so away.
"The more you win, the hunger you get and I think these kids are starting to understand what you need to do to win ball games."
They aren't quite there yet. The Tigers five loses have been by an average of 29 points, that's the bad news. The good news is FHSU's five wins have been by an average of 20 points. They are taking care of the teams they should beat. Now the team understands, it needs to find a way to steal a few from the top tier teams along the way.
"That just leads into recruiting and to the younger guys," said Hageman. "Okay we've progressed every year, it's up to you guys to get seven wins and then eight wins and compete every year with those contenders."
Adds Brown,"From 4-7 to 5-6 to hopefully 6-5 after this weekend's game. It just shows that we are making the progress needed. It's just shows that the kids are getting stronger and they are getting faster and they are getting more competitive on the football field."

We eventually managed to complete the Tambotie Spruit to the boundary of the concession only by hard manual work. We had to clear big fallen trees and debris that had come down with the flood, furthermore we had to deflate the tyres right down so that we could complete the technical stretches of the spruit. The mission was accomplished after many blisters, sore muscles and not to mention a punctured tyre - all part of the hard work and fun of being able to spend days out in the bush!

I've been successfully using PS3mediaserver for months, and love it.
I have used it mainly for .iso streaming from an HTPC (wired connection to ps3). However, last night I tried to play a .iso from a DVD of an older TV movie. This dvd has given me problems in the past when converting to h.264 because of interlacing issues, but I eventually got a decent h.264 file transcoded. I thought I wouldn't have any problems using ps3mediaserver with the .iso since it should be an exact copy of the dvd, but for some reason I get terrible stuttering when the camera pans (I "think" i can see the interlaced lines; but that may be biased by my previous transcoding with this dvd).
Anyway, the stuttering is apparent. I've never encountered this before, and I'm wondering if it has something to do with originally being an interlaced broadcast (quite crappy quality dvd; it should still be converted to progressive on the dvd, right?). Anyways, I also played directly from my dvd to compare and it was much smoother on the panning scenes. Can anyone offer any suggestions? Is it more CPU intensive for videos of this kind?
I have a Dual Core Intel CPU E5200

|This spicy grilled eggplant is a favorite of my brother Rand, who does the fun headers for Kalyn's Kitchen
(For Phase One Fridays I highlight Phase One recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites. I'm on the road driving home from Los Angeles, where I've been visiting my brother Rand and attending Camp Blogaway. This Spicy Grilled Eggplant is Rand's very favorite recipe on Kalyn's Kitchen, and I'm glad I have my eggplant planted this year so I can make it later in the summer. Meanwhile, if you have eggplant from the supermarket or Farmer's Market, I highly recommend this recipe.)
If you saw my last garden update, then you know I'm growing eggplant this year, and my first one was ready to harvest recently. I've grilled eggplant before, but I'm certainly not what you'd call an expert at cooking it, so I consulted a couple of cookbooks and settled on a recipe from Williams Sonoma Complete Grilling Cookbook, one of my favorite cookbooks, which I return to every summer for more grilling recipes. I followed their recommendation for salting the eggplant to remove some of the water before grilling. I sliced my eggplant about 1/2 inch thick, but next time I might slice it even thicker.
What makes this recipe so delicious is the spicy mixture the eggplant is mixed with after it's been grilled. I changed this part of the recipe a little, and I used some of the Aleppo Pepper I got from Burcu for the red pepper flakes. You can get Aleppo Pepper from Penzeys, or use the type of red pepper flakes you sprinkle on pizza. The cookbook suggested serving this as a main course with some feta cheese and Kalamata olives, which I think would be delicious, or you could use it as a side dish like I did. I hope I'll be getting some more eggplant soon from my little plant, because this recipe is a definite keeper, and I finally have eggplant in my Vegetables section. Here's how I made it.
Spicy Grilled Eggplant with Red Pepper and Parsley
1 medium globe eggplant or 2-3 long Asian eggplants
1-2 tsp. salt, to remove water from eggplant (not needed for Asian eggplant)
1-2 T olive oil, to brush eggplant for grilling
1 T chopped parsley
1 T chopped mint
(You can use 2 T of either mint or parsley if you don't have both.)
Spicy Sauce Ingredients:
2 T olive oil
2 tsp. red wine vinegar
2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. garlic puree (from a jar) or finely minced fresh garlic (or less if you don't love garlic)
1 tsp. Aleppo Pepper (or less, to taste. Use whatever kind of red pepper flakes you have.)
1 tsp. Spike Seasoning (optional, but highly recommended)
While eggplant drains, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic puree, Aleppo Pepper, and Spike.
To serve, assemble eggplant on serving plate and sprinkle with mint and parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.
South Beach Suggestions:
This is a perfect vegetarian main dish or side dish for any phase of the South Beach Diet. Serve with feta cheese, Kalamata olives, and Mary's Perfect Salad for a light meal for phase one. For phase two or three, this could be a side dish to go with something like Lamb Shish Kabobs with Wheat Pita and Tzatziki Sauce.

In a Monday afternoon news conference, North Augusta Public Safety says they've made progress in their search for the Huddle House murderer. But they could still use your help. New 12 has the latest on the search.
North Augusta Public Safety has now spent almost a week searching for a killer on the run.
"Time helps us in one way and in one way it hurts us," said Lee Wetherington, Public Safety Chief.
Time helps because police are able to use more resources. Right now 40 investigators are on this case. They say they've made progress and found evidence, but can't talk about the details.
More than a hundred leads have poured in from the public in the last week, even one from Delaware.
"A very good lead, looked very promising to us, but it just didn't pan out," Wetherington said.
Leads are also close to home. Investigators are still looking to see if this suspect has any connection to an unsolved murder case at the Highlander Pub in 2000. Both suspects' composite drawings look similar.
Investigators say they have reason to believe the shooter committed another crime before Tuesday and this is where they need your help. They say check on your neighbors and scan their yards for things like piled up newspapers. They also say check on your co-workers.
With time gone by, there's still no capture. But investigators say they're looking with as much enthusiasm as ever.
"This case is still very important to us. We're gonna work it to the very end until we have absolutely nothing else to follow or until we bring it to it's conclusion.
Public Safety continues to stress: If you know anyone with an SKS or an AK-type weapon, contact them, even if they don't look like the suspect.

SAN PABLO -- Minutes after the crackling gunfire and screeching rubber, the fallout hits Dr. Desmond Carson.
As an emergency room physician, Carson has seen hundreds of young men, women and children wheeled in with bullet-riddled bodies.
He can't unsee the dead, the last breaths and the miraculous recoveries. Nor does he want to.
"You get tired of seeing black boys and Mexican boys killed, it's depressing, but it also is right there, a truth you can't hide or gloss over," Carson said. "It's a public health disgrace. If this kind of carnage happened in a white community, there would be a national uproar."
Carson, 52, has been saving lives in the Doctors Medical Center emergency room since 1998, and is a fierce advocate for his chronically underfunded hospital and public health in West Contra Costa County.
In April, Carson earned the Richmond Excellence Serving our Community award, granted by Richmond and the Richmond Community Foundation. The award committee noted Carson's cofounding of a team of health care professionals to provide free stroke and heart attack-prevention clinics, mentoring Richmond High School students interested in medicine, and coaching the Richmond Steelers, a pee-wee football team.
"Desmond is a guy with a sterling educational background who could work anywhere in the country," said Eric Zell, who served five years with Carson on the hospital's board of directors. "But he chooses to work at a safety-net hospital that serves low-income and uninsured or underinsured people. You don't see a lot of people do that."
Carson grew up in south Richmond, just off Carlson Boulevard near what is now the Crescent Park housing complex. Eastshore Park, since renamed Booker T. Anderson Park, was where he played after-school sports.
Carson and his two younger sisters went to St. Joseph's Catholic School in Berkeley and later to El Cerrito High School.
Dad worked at a packaging company in Berkeley, and Mom was a nurse at Kaiser Hospital in Richmond.
Carson went to UC Berkeley, where he studied biophysics, and later studied medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin.
It was during his residency at Martin Luther King Jr. medical center in Los Angeles that Carson saw firsthand the toll of grinding inner-city violence. In the 1980s and 1990s, the crack cocaine epidemic gripped the Los Angeles area, and gang violence was on the rise. Carson remembers the September 1996 night that rap star Tupac Shakur was shot and killed in Las Vegas. The MLK medical center looked like a war zone, he said.
"We had 18 people shot that night, in the head, the chest, the stomach, arms and legs," Carson said. "That was the most I've ever seen. It seemed like I was performing surgery on trauma victims all night."
Today, Carson is that rare physician who is totally in sync with the community he serves, trusted by generations of patients and possessing an empathy and understanding befitting his local background.
"He knows everybody, and everybody knows him, I have never seen anything quite like it," said Dr. Malcolm Johnson, the emergency department medical director. "In this community, the ER doctor is also a de facto primary care doctor, and Desmond plays that role as well as it can be done."
Johnson said Carson, whom he describes as a "mentor," is at his best in times of crisis.
When a massive fire broke out at the nearby Chevron refinery in August, Carson, a veteran of many other chemical spills and industrial explosions in West Contra Costa County, took command.
"I recall him saying to everybody, 'Get the tents out!'" Johnson said, referring to emergency triage tents to handle the imminent surge of patients. More than 15,000 people sought medical treatment in the hours and days after the fire, several thousand at Doctors Medical Center.
"That was the impetus, and when the patient surge came, we were ready, and Desmond performed marvelously," Johnson said.
Carson, who lives in the city where he grew up, said he isn't immune to the emotions that come with working in an emergency room.
"It's tough," Carson said. "I lean on my wife and my kids for support, and I have no problem getting on my knees and asking God's help."
Carson said that whatever emotional toll the bloodshed has on him, it pales in comparison with what young people in the community face.
"These kids out here in Richmond and North Richmond see this violence every day, and there aren't any psychologists running around these communities to treat these kids for post-traumatic stress disorder," he said. "You can't see the scars on someone's soul, but they are there."
Looking ahead, Carson expects to transition away from the emergency room and spend more time doing public health outreach, volunteering with the Richmond Steelers football program and advancing public health initiatives as a director of For Richmond, a coalition of business and labor leaders dedicated to improving Richmond.
"There's always this fear of being the old guy on the basketball court who can't play anymore, and somebody else has to tell him it's time to move," Carson said. "I don't want to be that old guy trying to run with these youngsters on the ER floor."
