Adam Breneman won't have to wait much longer to get back on the field in a game as the nation's top tight end recruit will play this season rather than redshirt.
Breneman sat out his senior year of high school after tearing the ACL in his right knee, and after enrolling early at Penn State, he was held out of contact drills during the spring.
Now healthy, Breneman has been so impressive in training camp that coach Bill O'Brien already has decided he will get on the field as a true freshman.
"Oh yeah, Breneman will definitely play," O'Brien said. "He's had a good camp. We have four tight ends, all of those guys have played well: Jesse James; Matt Lehman has had a good camp; Kyle Carter has been his usual self; and Adam Breneman has had a good camp."
O'Brien described Breneman as a "smart player, tough kid, good hands, he can run. He'll be playing."
One tight end who won't be playing any time soon is redshirt freshman Brent Wilkerson, who is still battling a back injury.
"Brent Wilkerson is out," O'Brien said, without elaborating if that means for the foreseeable future or for the entire season.
Kline update
Penn State's linebacker depth is already a concern, and there are still questions about backup Ben Kline as the season approaches.
Kline, who figures to be the first linebacker off the bench, still isn't 100 percent as he's coming back from a shoulder injury.
"I believe he'll be ready to go," O'Brien said. "We have to do a great job of managing that. That's a shoulder injury that maybe we have to put a harness on him. He's a tough kid. You want guys like Ben Kline on your football team."
Belton cleared
Backup running back Bill Belton is academically eligible to play after having to spend time in the summer to get up to speed with his classwork. That's key for the Lions, who could have been in trouble had Belton not been eligible since there are only two other tailbacks, Zach Zwinak and Akeel Lynch.
News and notes
n O'Brien described the health of the team as "decent." He added, "Knock on wood. These guys have done a nice job of practicing physically and staying on their feet."
n The Lions held a scrimmage in Beaver Stadium on Wednesday, and O'Brien believes it's important for the younger players to get acclimated to the facility prior to the season.
"The big thing is, it's important, especially for our young players who have never played in that stadium, to get in there, even if there's no crowd there, to just get a feel for it," O'Brien said. "This is not just a stadium, this is a cathedral. This is a very, very famous place in the history of college football. It was pretty cool."
n O'Brien made sure to point out how impressive it is that so many his players graduate early, noting receiving Brandon Felder and tight end Matt Lehman graduated Saturday. Eight active players already have earned their degree.
"That's a big key around here," O'Brien said. "One of the great things that I see at Penn State is that you have guys like that, like those two guys and John Urschel, that have graduated and are still playing on your football team. They can really talk to your younger players about what they did, what they went through, and how they set it up."

TAHOE/TRUCKEE — Just thinking of onions can bring tears to your eyes; but you no longer have to cry because you're confused about which type of onion to use! With a variety of onions available year round, each lending a unique flavor profile, you may wonder how to properly incorporate them into your cooking.Below are the most common varieties of onions and some tips on how and when to use them.Yellow onions are the most common variety of onion and will store the longest. They are large golden globes which have a strong, sweet and slightly nutty flavor when cooked. Yellow onions can be used in most every dish and are best for caramelizing.White onions have a mild sweet flavor and due to their cell structure, do not store as long as other onion varieties. White onions are commonly found in Spanish or Mexican cuisine and are often added to white sauces, pasta and potato dishes.Red onions are known for their large size and sweet flavor. Since red onions have a sweet flavor without the addition of cooking, they are the perfect onion to add raw to salads and sandwiches.Scallions, also known as green onions, have a pleasant mild flavor. Both the green stalks and white bulbs of scallions can be consumed. Scallions are most often eaten raw in salads or used as a garnish for soups, stir-fries and potatoes.Shallots, often confused with garlic because of their similar size and shape, are purple in color. They have a sweet, bold flavor which is intensified when cooked. The unique flavor of shallots pairs well with butter, cream, and citrus; making them a common ingredient found in French cuisine.Leeks are a member of the onion family. However, unlike onions, leeks do not form bulbs but develop an edible long round stem. Leeks have a distinct flavor and juicy texture. They are often sliced and used in stews, soups and braised meat dishes.These sausage hoagies are topped with caramelized onions and peppers to create a fast, easy meal.Sausage and Pepper Hoagies6 whole Italian chicken or turkey sausage links1 whole green bell pepper, seeded and sliced into 3⁄4 -inch strips1 whole red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into 3⁄4 inch strips1 large yellow onion, sliced1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning1⁄4 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste3 Tablespoon canola oil6 large hoagie rolls6 tablespoon spicy mustard (optional for serving)2-3 (ounce) feta cheese, crumbled (optional for serving)Heat 1 tablespoon oil in saut pan over medium high heat. When hot, add sausage and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, or until cooked through. Remove sausage and set aside.Add remaining oil to pan. And peppers and onions into a saucepan, sprinkle in the dried Italian seasoning, salt and black pepper. Stir the mixture every few minutes and continue cooking until the peppers and onions start to soften and caramelize slightly — about 8-10 minutes.Spread mustard on each side of the hoagie roll. Place one sausage link in the hoagie roll, then top with the peppers, onions and feta cheese.— Chef Heather Hunsaker attended and graduated from Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts, but has been developing family friendly meals since she was nine years old in her mother's kitchen.

"I started crying," the professional ballroom dancer, 32, tells PEOPLE. "I hadn't even taken a step yet. Just to stand tall was extremely emotional."
In this week's PEOPLE cover story, featuring candid interviews and an exclusive photo portfolio taken on May 30 at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Charlestown, Mass., Haslet and 10 other survivors – including nine amputees – reveal how they've been coping since the April 15 blasts that claimed three lives and left as many as 264 people injured.
The lives of the 16 people who lost limbs that day were forever changed.
Now, even basic tasks like going to the bathroom and taking a shower in the morning "take double the time," admits Haslet.
But by leaning on each other, they're helping each other heal both physically and emotionally.
Among the most grievously hurt were Marc Fucarile, 34, of Stoneham, Mass., and Roseann Sdoia, 45, of Boston, who are featured in the issue and exclusive PEOPLE videos.
Stranded when the last available ambulances raced past them, the pair were thrown in the back of a police van to be rushed to the hospital.
As the vehicle hurtled through the streets of Boston, Fucarile, whose right leg was blown off, drifted in and out of consciousness. "I thought I was going to die," says the father of a son, Gavin, 5.
But with soothing words, Sdoia, who also lost a leg, kept him awake and pushed him to fight for life.
Now Fucarile and his fiancé Jennifer Regan, 30, are looking forward to planning their wedding again.
"I definitely want to be able to dance," says Fucarile.

Getting ready for summer we are looking at the merit badges offered at camp. It has been a long standing rule of mine that Scouts in their first year at camp take at least one Eagle Required merit badge. Something like Environmental Science or First Aid. Beyond that, First year Scouts should spend at least a half hour at the Trail to First Class station. I want those first year Scouts to find a good balance between merit badges/advancement and fun.
Merit Badges or Fun?
3 thoughts on "Merit Badges or Fun?"
Some day I'll have a group of Scouts who will take me up on the offer that they ca spend their week building a fort or something rather than working on badges – I have to practically beg the older guys to do something like the COPE program instead of Merit Badges.
Of course merit badges are important, but I encourage Scouts to take as much First Class Adventure as necessary/able to get them to First Class before sweating merit badges too much.
Great post! Sounds like a lot of fun to be a scout!<3 Lindsay

Despite protests, school reform is much-needed
March 17, 2013
Officials of West Virginia's two teachers' unions have made it clear they deeply dislike Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin's school reform proposal. Fin....
Hear! Hear! Well said Journal.
The teacher's unions care only about the teacher's bureaucracy--not education or the students.

The holidays are "for the children." less work is "for the children." Fewer exams are "for the children." Manny Arvon's huge staff and larger salary are "for the children." Not connecting teacher evaluations with styudent perfoprmance is "for the children." Voting for the excess levy for teacher bonuses is "for the children." How can anyone say no? It's all for the children!

The Unions would not have had to ask any questions if the holidays were included in the bill. Blaming the Unions for this is the real red herring. If by education reform you mean shaping curriculum to arbitrary evaluation, then NO, it is not needed.

A Cook County (Chicago) Circuit Court judge has denied bail for the two men now charged with first-degree murder in Hadiya Pendleton's death. They are 18-year-old Michael Ward and 20-year-old Kenneth Williams.
The Huffington Post has revealed chilling new details about the Jan. 29 murder of the Chicago teenager and honor student. Two young men cruised around a park on Chicago's South Side searching for rival gang members. After parking in a nearby alley, one of them jumped a short fence surrounding the park and sneaked up behind Pendleton and her fellow students huddled under a canopy as they tried to avoid an increasingly heavy rainfall.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Williams' attorney denied that he was a gang member. Cook County Assistant State's Attorney Jennifer Sexton countered with the dirty details of Hadiya's last moments on this earth. Most of those details, enumerated below, she said, were provided by the young men themselves. The bottom line, Sexton argued, is that these two young men were on "the hunt" – the hunt for rival gang members; that Hadiya Pendelton and the other two victims were "just there" and not meant or intended to be hurt.
Indeed, the Chicago Police Department, according to the Chicago Tribune, has said in no uncertain terms, that no one in Pendleton's group was in any way associated with a gang or criminal activity of any type.
Hadiya's murder is just one of a record number of homicides in Chicago already this year; but her particular murder has exponentially ratcheted up Chicago's and the nation's angst and anger over these heretofore "under the radar" killings.
Why Hadiya? Mainly because of Hadiya's Obama connection. The drum majorette had performed at President Barack Obama's inaugural festivities just days before the shooting. And, she was shot and killed within spitting distance from the Obamas' Chicago home.
Attorney Sexton said that Ward and Williams belonged to the SUWU gang and were trolling the streets near Obama's Chicago home, says the Huffington Post.
Earlier reports indicate that Ward had admitted that the two gangs had been in a low-grade war with each other since at least 2010. Further, he was still seething over the 4-6 Terror gang's shooting and killing of another friend, Sexton said. Thus, when he got out of the car he was handed a gun by Williams, who police said, had himself been shot in the arm by a member of a rival gang only six months earlier. She was specific before the judge:
"Defendant Ward admitted he snuck up on the group and they didn't see him coming," Sexton said. He fired at least six times," she told the judge, as reported by the Huffington Post. One bullet struck a 17-year-old in the left ankle, and another grazed the left foot of another 17-year-old.
Pendleton was hit in the upper back.
"She was able to make it outside of the park and then collapsed on the street," Sexton said. She died in nearby University of Chicago's Children's Hospital later that day.
According to the Tribune, Ward then ran back to the car, and the two drove off, the prosecutor said. Police placed them at the scene through cell phone records and surveillance videos. The videos showed Ward's mother's white Nissan driving back and forth near and around the park.
Ward confessed to his role in the shooting in videotaped interviews. Williams confessed "to a third party witness," State's Attorney Anita Alvarez said later. She would not explain exactly what that means.
First lady Michelle Obama attended Hadiya's funeral Saturday, and her parents are tonight guests of the first lady at the president's state of the union speech. The president spoke passionately tonight about Hadiya's murder and gun violence generally.
As a result, Hadiya has become not just a martyr but a symbol of the cost of gun and gang violence.
"Defendant Ward admitted that the girl, now known as Hadiya Pendleton, had nothing to do with it," Sexton said in court. As reported by the Tribune, "She was just there."
The Huffington Post reports that Ward's attorney, Jeff Granich, argued that Ward is himself a victim of all of this attention and pressure to quickly close the case.
"The problem when criminal cases get made into political cases ... rules are bent and mistakes are made," he said. For example, Ward said, his client asked repeatedly over a 48-hour period to talk to a lawyer. However, "during that time those requests were ignored by the Chicago Police Department."
Williams' attorney, Matthew McQuaid, said Williams was not a gang member and that he seriously doubted that any admission of guilt was proffered.
"The question of whether Mr. Williams made any kind of statement, I think, is in question," said McQuaid, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. Surprisingly, McQuaid indicated also that Williams is a high school graduate who lives with his family and actually has a job. Indeed, he works at an air courier service at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.
Williams' only run-in with the law was on a retail theft charge "for which he received supervision," McQuaid said, according to the Sun-Times.
The "no bond" ruling by the judge in this case is more than appropriate. These men, and they are men, are typical of far too many young black males in Chicago. I recall during the late 1980s when crack cocaine reached epidemic status on Chicago's streets. Breathless, dire warnings were made then as "crack babies" were being born (newborns addicted to cocaine at birth). These children, many social workers and sociologists argued, would one day become a new, more aggressive, conscience-less and soul-less kind of "super predator."
I pooh-poohed such talk and thinking -- even considered it "racist" on its face. But, I'm sorry. I was wrong. As a lifelong resident of this great city, for the first time, I must think twice, or three times, hard, before making a simple trip into the streets in search of a loaf of bread or before doing any other heretofore mundane errand.
And I am not alone. Jesse Jackson himself said that once while walking down the street alone, he heard footsteps behind him. He turned and saw that it was a white man. He said he felt "relieved" that it was not a young black man sneaking up to do harm.
Now, I do not know, or care really, whether the cause of these murders is drugs, gangs, poverty, bad schools, fatherlessness – or all of the above. I do know, however, that whatever the reason, this dynamic must change, must be changed by us, the adults.
And this behavior has entered into yet another generation of black males. At a family gathering this past weekend, my female cousin's "fatherless" 5-year-old son threw a raging temper tantrum because we, the adults, did not want to continue watching "his" cartoons on television. (There were two other TVs in the apartment). The boy demanded that we watch what he wanted to watch, and would not take "no" for an answer. My cousin's, his mother's, tepid response? "Well, okay. For 10 more minutes. Then the grownups get to watch TV."
If this boy is controlling his mother at 5-years old, what will he be like at 15? 20? 25? He will not be merely a "super predator." He is a "mega-predator" in the making.

Wednesday, October 2, 2013
A suspect has been arrested in connection the double homicide of a mother and daughter who were found dead Tuesday in their Sangaree home.
Jacob Theopholis Philip, 22, a student at the U.S. Navy Nuclear Power Training Command in Goose Creek, was developed as a person of interest in the ensuing homicide investigation, according to a Berkeley County Sheriff's Office statement issued Wednesday afternoon.
Officers with the Virginia Beach, Va. Police Department arrested Philip at about 10:24 p.m. on Tuesday. Earlier that day BCSO officers arrived at 302 Kershaw Drive in Sangaree to find the bodies of 26-year-old Ashley Kaney and her 8-year-old daughter Riley Burdick.
Riley's cause of death was asphyxiation by strangulation, according to an autopsy report released by Berkeley County Coroner Bill Salisbury Wednesday afternoon.
Salisbury said an autopsy was conducted on Kaney but the toxicology and microscopic test results were still pending as of 4 p.m. Wednesday.
On Tuesday the VBPD warrant squad received information that a murder suspect who has ties to Virginia Beach may possibly be in the oceanfront area of Virginia Beach, VBPD Public Affairs Officer Tonya Borman said.
"Our oceanfront community policing squad began working with the warrant fugitive unit canvassing the oceanfront and surrounding areas," Borman said Wednesday. "At about 10:24 p.m. one of our officers spotted the possible suspect vehicle in a parking lot.
"The individual was approached, identified and arrested without incident. It was also determined that the vehicle the suspect was driving had been stolen earlier in the evening from our town center area.
"He has been charged in Virginia Beach with the grand larceny of a stolen vehicle. He is currently being held in our correctional center without bond."
BCSO has charged Philip with two counts of murder and he is expected to be extradited to South Carolina. Philip has confessed to killing Kaney and her daughter, according to a BCSO statement.
It was determined the deaths were the result of an isolated case of domestic violence and did not pose a threat to the community, according to a BCSO statement.
Riley was a student at Sangaree Intermediate School. She had not been at school for two days and her mother could not be reached by school employees, who requested a safety check.
BCSO deputies received no response from the residence. They located an open window and entered. That's when they discovered the victims, according to a BCSO statement.
At least 10 deputies were on the scene into the night on Tuesday. The street was blocked off by crime scene tape.
A neighbor of the victims, Paul Thomas, called the situation "unreal."
"Never seen anything like it," said Thomas, who added that he didn't realize anything was amiss until police showed up at the house on Tuesday.
Thomas said the victims had lived at the residence about a year.
"Senseless acts such as this have far-reaching effects on not only the families involved but our entire community," BCSO Sheriff Wayne DeWitt said in a statement. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to Ms. Kaney's family during this difficult time."
"This is an unspeakable tragedy," Berkeley County School District Superintendent Dr. Rodney Thompson said in a statement released Wednesday. "On behalf of the district, I offer my condolences, and our hearts and prayers are with Riley's and Ms. Kaney's loved ones and the entire Sangaree community."
Since learning of the news, the school has implemented a crisis response plan for students and staff. Communication is going out to all parents today, BCSD Public Information Officer Susan Haire said Wednesday.
Additional school counselors and district-level support staff are on-hand at the school today, assisting the community in processing this tragedy. Counseling and grief supports will continue to be available throughout the week, according to Haire.
"Today and in the coming days, school personnel and district officials will be focused on fully supporting the school community and responding to its needs," Haire said Wednesday.
Salisbury commended BCSO for putting together a team of investigators from nine agencies and thus making an arrest within hours. Those agencies are: BCSO, The U.S. Naval Criminal Investigative Service, the Virginia Technical College Police Department, The Blacksburg, Va. Police Department, VBPD, the SLED Child Facility Unit, the U.S. Marshals Service, the Berkeley County Coroner's Office and the 9th Judicial Circuit Solicitor's Office.

STEUBENVILLE - Jackie Sacripanti admits she wasn't prepared for the torrent of emotions unleashed when word of Saturday's "Stand Up For Steubenville" rally hit Facebook.
"I received a lot of unneeded messages from people on Facebook who thought the event was something other than what it is," she told the more than 200 people who gathered at Jim Wood Park.
They were there to show their support for the countless children and adults in the community who had nothing to do with a now-infamous end-of-summer party at which an underage girl from a nearby town was allegedly raped.

Local residents pray during a "Stand Up For Steubenville" rally Saturday at Jim Wood Park in Steubenville. Organizers said the event was to show support for the youths of the community.
Sacripanti said the backlash "surprised the heck out of me."
"Some of the people I never met before," she said. "Others I once considered friends."
Two 16-year-old members of the Steubenville High School football team, Trent Mays and Ma'lik Richmond, have been charged with raping the girl, who witnesses said was intoxicated and unresponsive.
Mays also is charged with illegal use of a minor in nudity-oriented material, the result of two pictures of the naked victim investigators testified were attached to text messages allegedly sent from his cell phone.
The case was thrust into the national spotlight after online activists raised allegations of a coverup, claiming police and prosecutors in the sports-crazy town are protecting Big Red student-athletes as well as the children of prominent parents.
Anonymous, an online collective of hacktivists, has issued a call for justice for the young girl, repeatedly hacking into a Steubenville High School booster website, posting screenshots of Facebook posts and Twitter messages related to the alleged rape.
Most recently, they uploaded a 12-minute video of former student Michael Nodianos crassly joking about the girl's condition and what had allegedly been done to her.
Families of Big Red athletes have reported being harassed and threatened. Last week, Steubenville police Chief Bill McCaffery's computer was shut down by an email he received and Jefferson County Sheriff Fred Abdalla reported a family member had been threatened. Police increased patrols around city schools after a threat of violence triggered a lockdown.
Sacripanti said children in the community who had nothing to do with the parties or the alleged rape "are being taunted and harassed, just because they attend Steubenville City Schools."
"Canceling this event would have been the worst thing we could have done," Sacripanti said. "If we quit, they win. I wasn't raised to be a quitter."
Michael Jett of Community Inc. pointed out those attending Saturday's rally were there "because we love our children, (not to) condone any crime."
"Pray for God to bring truth, to bring justice, to bring truth to our community," he urged the crowd. "The powers that are being set in motion are being powered by evil. We want to stand for good. We don't want to stand for fear or intimidation. We want to stand for truth and justice."
Jett pointed out some who are calling for justice for the alleged rape victim are also threatening to "come and shoot up (your) schools" and sending threatening notes to the homes of others telling them, "I hope you're peaceful in your own home."
"You can't tell me God moved you to do that," he said. "You want us to be ashamed of our traditions, you want us to be ashamed of our success, you want us to be ashamed of our children. You want our children to be ashamed of the schools they go to. If you want justice, prove it: The case is in the justice system, let them handle it."
Parent Jill Watkins broke down in tears when she told the crowd she was proud of her son "for standing up for what he believes in."
"We have so much to be proud of in Steubenville, we have pride and tradition that most people never get to experience," Watkins said, adding that it's important for parents to make sure their children understand that "every decision you make will have consequences" and help them make good choices.
Jeno Atkins, a Big Red student athlete, thanked the crowd for believing in the youth of the community, adding that "we don't hide behind masks."
The Rev. Vaughan Foster lamented the anger directed at the community at large, saying "people took a limited amount of information and ran with it. I don't believe Steubenville ... has been represented well by outsiders.''
Foster recalled working as a substitute teacher at the high school on many occasions after moving to Steubenville nearly a decade ago. "You'll never find youths more respectful than you'll find in this community," he said. "This is still a 'yes, sir, no, ma'am' kind of town ... This is still a town where, despite working two or three jobs, mothers and fathers are trying to raise their children with respect."
Foster advised those at the rally to pray, "pray for everybody involved."
"We need to pray for the young lady, we need to pray for the (alleged attackers)," he said. "But our prayers shouldn't stop there."
Dawud Abdullah said those threatening school violence should ask themselves, "What if this was your child? How would you feel?"
"People think our divisions are what separates us," he said. "But our divisions are what bring us together" as a community.
"Don't come here to point fingers," he said. "Come here to unite."
Sacripanti, meanwhile, said they'll continue to show their support for the youth of the community "until our voices are heard and our children are safe."
"It became personal after Tuesday when ... the schools were locked down," she said. "I knew then something had to be done for our children."
Representatives of the Jefferson County Prevention and Recovery Board, Family Services Association and Jefferson Behavioral Health Systems also addressed the crowd and offered counseling services to those traumatized by the events or in need of mental health, alcohol and drug abuse counseling.

HOOVER, Ala. — Steve Spurrier likes to say that the months between spring practices and the beginning of college football games are "talking season." Media members and fans prognosticate how the autumn will unfold. Coaches and players offer endlessly optimistic comments about offseason workouts, conditioning and the like.
SEC Media Days
Where: Hoover, Ala.
When: Tuesday-Thursday
Tuesday's schedule:
2-4:40 p.m. — Florida and Missouri
4:50-7:20 p.m. — South Carolina and Ole Miss
But in the end, none of it matters, and Spurrier knows that. Talking season, which peaks Tuesday through Thursday with Southeastern Conference Media Days, serves as nothing more than an opportunity to anticipate and hope for greater things than last year brought.
For Spurrier and South Carolina, these are heady times, the finest in the program's history. The Gamecocks went 11-2 each of the past two seasons — their top records ever. They finished last year eighth in the Associated Press poll (another high), and will be around there in this year's preseason poll. They have next year's projected No. 1 NFL draft pick in defensive end Jadeveon Clowney.
Twenty-three years after Spurrier arrived at Florida with a swashbuckling demeanor and prolific offense that would serve as the face of the SEC throughout the 1990s, he comes to Hoover, Ala., Tuesday as the league's most senior coach, by far. Other than Spurrier, 68, the only SEC coaches in their 60s are Alabama's Nick Saban and Missouri's Gary Pinkel, who are both 61.
But don't call Spurrier old, because he can't stand that word, and he certainly doesn't act elderly. Moreover, USC's recent success has energized him in the twilight of his career.
Maybe he will entertain the assembled media members Tuesday afternoon with a zinger or three, like he did last year, when he said this about USC's and Georgia's rotating cross-division opponents in 2012: "If I made the schedule, Georgia would be playing LSU and we'd be playing Ole Miss."
Mississippi did go 1-7 and 0-8 in SEC play in 2010 and 2011, before new coach Hugh Freeze went 3-5 in 2012. So Spurrier was just saying what any coach would think, but few would say.
Or maybe Spurrier will make a case for Clowney being the first exclusively defensive player to win the Heisman Trophy. Spurrier won the 1966 Heisman as Florida's quarterback, so he has a vote. He used it last year to put Clowney first. Clowney finished sixth.
Clowney will be in Hoover on Tuesday, too, along with quarterback Connor Shaw and wide receiver Bruce Ellington. None of the three is as experienced with talking season as Spurrier, but Clowney has grown more comfortable over the past two seasons with the increasing amount of attention paid to his football abilities.
Still, USC has done its best to shield Clowney from the attention as it peaks. He has not been made available for one-on-one interviews this summer. So everyone who packs the hotel ballroom in Hoover will await what he says about the Heisman and USC's chances of surpassing the past two seasons' glory. Of course, Clowney probably realizes by now that anything he says in this forum will have zero impact on the results of USC's season.
But as he prepares to be peppered with hundreds of questions, perhaps there is more urgency to USC's summer than there was a year ago.
Yes, for the second straight year, the Gamecocks open the season with a legit opponent on a Thursday night. Last year, they traveled to Vanderbilt and won, 17-13. This year, they host North Carolina on Aug. 29.
But unlike last year, the Gamecocks face another challenge in Week 2. Instead of hosting an overmatched team like East Carolina, which USC pounded, 48-10, last year, the Gamecocks travel this season to Georgia for their second game.
Georgia has won the SEC Eastern Division the past two years, going 7-1 in league play each time, compared to 6-2 for USC, which beat the Bulldogs both years. USC won the East in 2010.
As the Bulldogs and Gamecocks get ready to battle for the division again, Spurrier won't be able to crack wise about Georgia's rotating cross-division opponent. Georgia did beat Mississippi last year in Athens, while USC lost at LSU, a brutal road setting. But this year, the Bulldogs host LSU and the Gamecocks host Mississippi State.
Not that talking season is ever any less interesting with Spurrier at the podium.

Healthcare is one of the most technology-rich and dependent sectors in the world. In virtually every aspect of medical practice, technology plays a vital role. From antibiotics to x-rays to neurosurgery, virtually the whole of modern medicine would be impossible without highly developed and specialized technologies.
However, it could easily be argued that for all of the technological tools available to healthcare providers, it is information technology which is the most critical. Without individual patients' medical histories, disease trends, test results and a host of other forms of data, physicians, nurses and others would simply be unable to provide healthcare successfully.
This makes the sharing of healthcare data essential for the industry. However, this information is also extremely sensitive, which means that healthcare organizations must be very careful when sending and receiving such data.
A difficult issue
This is a delicate balance to strike, and one which many institutions miss, as numerous events have demonstrated. In the past year, millions of health records have been exposed in dozens of separate incidents, causing a wide range of potential problems for those affected. In addition to the sheer violation of privacy, the exposure of health records puts individuals at risk of experiencing identity theft or fraud.
The balance between security and data availability is likely to become increasingly critical in the near future, as electronic health records (EHRs) become a standard feature of hospitals and private practices. Additionally, many healthcare organizations are beginning to leverage bring-your-own-device (BYOD) strategies to make healthcare information more accessible to essential personnel. While this may help physicians make more informed decisions, though, it also raises the risk of a device containing sensitive medical data being lost or stolen.
Data solutions
To combat this risk without sacrificing the advantages offered by new data-enabling technology, healthcare organizations should invest in secure file transfer solutions. With these tools, firms can ensure that all electronic healthcare data is encrypted at all times. This way, even if files end up in unauthorized hands, the information contained will remain inaccessible.
However, not all secure file transfer tools are equally viable. Organizations must be careful to only pursue solutions that can be easily inserted into physicians' daily workflows. If the encryption or other technology requires too much effort, overburdened staff will likely ignore the data-protection resources at their disposal. Only an unobtrusive security solution will be fully adopted and, therefore, fully effective.

A Tanner is a man of great magnitude, comparable to the gods themselves. He never ceases to amazing those around him. If there was a book written about his life, it would be split into two sections; before you read his book and after, it's that life changing. If that book were to go to audio tape, Morgan Freeman would be required to be the narrator. On a scale of one to ten, he is easily a certified twenty. P Diddy wakes up feeling like him. I assure you he is extremely better looking than Mick Jagger, yet he never gets kicked to the curb. Oh, and his moves are far more superior. He has to keep a fence around his house at all times, because no matter what he is making in the kitchen, people all around try to get in his yard, and trust me, it is better than yours. He has a ranch full of baby panda bears, ligers, and humpback whales that he is teaching to perform Hamlet. His intelligence surpasses that of Socrates, Einstein, and Steven Hawking combined. His writing is as elegant as Shakespeare, but as pleasing as Dr. Seuss. If given the choice between eternal happiness and a Krispy Kreme doughnut, he'd take the doughnut because it's something he doesn't already have. If his life were a movie, Spielberg, Bay, and Lucas would all direct it. He is often called Superman. Not because he is super humanly strong (though he is very strong) or can fly, but because Kryptonite is his only weakness. If there were one word to describe Tanner, it would be 'Scrumtrulescent'.
No example will do Tanner justice.

North Charleston, S.C./ November 13, 2012 Dr. Claus Brandigi, of the Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Augusta will be at the Trident Burn Clinic on Wednesday, November 14. Dr. Brandigi will be available to speak about Thanksgiving Fire Prevention Tips. From frying turkeys to holiday decorations catching on fire, emergency departments see a rise in burns during the Thanksgiving holiday. The Joseph M. Still Burn Center is nationally recognized for their commitment to fire safety and prevention.
A home fire is twice as likely to occur on Thanksgiving, according to the U.S. Fire Administration. We see a spike in the number of burn patients every Thanksgiving, said Dr. Brandigi. In recent years, many burns have occurred when people try to deep-fry a turkey. In fact, according to State Farm, South Carolina was one of the top 15 states for Thanksgiving grease and cooking fires between 2005 and 2010. However, all it takes is just a little precaution to help avoid deep-fryer burns.
In recent years, both the American Burn Association and the National Fire Protection Association have encouraged people to avoid frying turkeys due to the risks involved. Still, if people plan to fry a turkey, there are certain tips to consider:
Turkeys should be less than 12 lbs., and 8-10 lbs. turkeys are often the most appropriate size.
Check the turkey to make sure it is not partially frozen and does not have any excess water on it. The water can cause hot oil to splatter. It also helps to pat down the bird with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
The fryer should be used on a well-ventilated, level, outdoor surface.
Make sure the pot is never left unattended, and children and pets are kept at a safe distance.
Use only peanut, canola or safflower oils in the fryer.
Use care when touching the handles of the pot.
Make sure the deep fryer has a thermostat to regulate the temperature of the oil.
Slowly lower the turkey into the pot to avoid spillage.
Make sure the deep fryer has a thermostat to regulate the temperature of the oil.
Slowly lower the turkey into the pot to avoid spillage.
One of the most important things I can tell people is that they should never, ever allow a child to be alone or unsupervised in the kitchen, said Dr. Brandigi. We see cases of children getting burned by touching a hot pot or pulling scalding liquid down on themselves on an almost daily basis.
Other tips for staying safe in the kitchen include:
Cook on the back burners of the stove, and make sure all pot handles are turned inward so children cannot come into contact with them. Appliances that get hot, like toaster ovens, should also be well out of a childs reach.
Do the most preparation and cooking on your own before Thanksgiving Days kitchen traffic.
Keep potholders, containers and food wrappers at least three feet away from heat sources while cooking.
Use timers to track cooking times.
Turn off all appliances if you leave the kitchen, even if you are leaving for just a few minutes.

5 Pieces of Advice Every Adult Wishes They Got as a Teenager
#2. Advice tends to be something you don't truly appreciate until you wish you had taken it. It's not just you; we all do it.
In yet another article, I talked about bad sources of advice, and the overall message there could be boiled down to a single tweet by comedian Kyle Cease:
Via Kyle's Twitter
A man I've mentioned in yet another article -- damn, I'm a fucking link machine today, baby! Suck it!
We aren't just talking about people who are where you want to be in terms of career, but in any facet of life -- emotional, spiritual, financial, mental stability, social status, criminal record. If I ever become homeless and nobody will help me out, I'm taking advice on how to keep warm from another homeless guy who survived last night's snowstorm. But I'm probably not trusting his financial opinions or warnings about the eminent invasion of the Eel Summoner.
It's important to know that, because you're going to get advice from everyone, all the goddamn time. It's good to know how to rank and prioritize that information. But regardless of where we get it, there's every chance in the world that you're going to blow it off because you have this all under control. It's human nature. "My life isn't a catastrophe, so I must be doing something right. Right? Guys?"
It's only later when the doctor is showing you an X-ray of a spot on your lung that you give the ball-crushing attention to his warnings that you are going to fucking die if you don't fucking quit fucking smoking, fucko.
"I'm just going to follow you around forever, doing this until you stop being a fucking idiot."
We all do it. People will do it to you when you get to a position in life where your advice isn't laughable pig farts and actually starts carrying some weight. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I don't know. Probably a little of both, I guess, depending on the situation. But the point isn't so much about right or wrong as it is the overall lesson of "Be aware. This stuff happens, so take notice."
#1. Self-control is the hardest skill you'll ever have to master.
From birth until the day you move out on your own, pretty much every facet of your life is controlled by someone else. Parents, teachers, babysitters, the secretive, nameless guardian who taught you to kill from the quiet embrace of the shadows. There's always someone looking over your shoulder to prevent you from fucking up. "Don't run in the house, you'll get hurt." "Don't stab that guy, you'll go to jail again."
So from the time we're old enough to rationalize, we're trained that nothing is truly under our own control, and if we do happen to fuck up, the most we have to fear is getting grounded, spanked or yelled at. When you enter adulthood, that all changes literally overnight.
"Probably best not to follow me in. I'm going to be naked before the door closes."
For the first time, you'll be put into situations in which the only person you have to answer to is yourself. How will you react? Take away the teacher -- do you start slacking off? Take away mom and dad's rules on junk food -- do you start eating at McDonald's every day? Take away the police patrols -- do you strip naked and set houses on fire, cackling like a crazed hyena?
This is what we're dealing with when we talk about things like addictions, teen pregnancy and obesity (the type that's not tied to a physical cause, of course). It's an area in which the only person who is going to give you hell is your future self. Are you prepared for that? I wasn't. Hell, I'm not sure I know anyone who was. Because keeping yourself in check when the temptation is there to just take the easy way out is excruciating: "Man, I don't feel like cooking tonight. Maybe I'll just order a pizza again." Yes, others may voice their concerns about your choices ("Dude, you're pushing 300 pounds, and you've eaten pizza every day for two months"), but nobody is going to step in and force you to get your shit under control, unless it's flat-out breaking the law. That's your thing now, and failing to master that self-control could fuck your life right on up.
"CHUG, CHUG, CHUG, CHUG! Wait ... why am I chanting 'chug' when I'm the only one here?"
It's probably best to just accept this one right now. I didn't until I was in my mid-30s, and it damn near killed me. You're better than that. But if all else fails, at least remember this article in 15 years. I'll either be one of those guys I mentioned earlier who's completely full of shit, or it'll feel strangely prophetic.

Troopers arrested two drivers on charges of aggravated driving while intoxicated in separate incidents this morning on the Niagara Thruway in Buffalo, state police reported.
In the first case, troopers responded at 4:15 a.m. to a vehicle that had crashed into a concrete wall on the Porter Avenue ramp to the northbound Niagara Thruway, said State Police Sgt. Edward Dunning.
They arrested Mariely H. Rivera, 30, of Busti Avenue, on a charge of aggravated DWI after she recorded a blood-alcohol level of 0.19 percent, more than twice the legal limit of 0.08 percent.
Rivera and her passenger were transported to Erie County Medical Center but both refused treatment there.
In the second incident, David J. Kirszenstein, 27, of Sterling Avenue, was charged with aggravated DWI because he recorded a 0.21 percent blood-alcohol level. He also was charged with felony DWI because he has a previous DWI conviction within the last 10 years, Dunning said.
Kirszenstein had been traveling southbound on the Niagara Thruway near the South Ogden Street exit, though it wasn't immediately clear what prompted troopers to stop him. He was taken to the Buffalo police lock-up and is set to be arraigned Monday morning in City Court.

South Carolina is not among the top three contenders for Boeing's new 777X plant if the Machinists union votes down a labor contract late Wednesday, according to a Seattle media report.
Though the Chicago-based aerospace company is amassing more land near its 787 Dreamliner campus at Charleston International Airport for an undisclosed use, The Seattle Times cited an internal analysis by Boeing that said Long Beach, Calif.; Salt Lake City, Utah; and Huntsville, Ala., were the top three candidates.
Long Beach has a skilled workforce where the C-17 cargo jet is made, but the plant will be mothballed in 2015, leaving it open for a possible new use.
A Boeing facility in Salt Lake City makes horizontal stabilizer parts for the 787-9 Dreamliner. Huntsville doesn't make airplanes for Boeing, but it heavily supports the company's aerospace ventures.
"Boeing South Carolina is unlikely to be chosen because that complex needs all its resources to try to get the 787 Dreamliner on track," the newspaper said.
Hints that the nonunionized plant in North Charleston was not in the running came out last week when local and state officials disclosed that no one in the Palmetto State has been talking incentives for Boeing to land the 777X project in North Charleston.
State Senate Finance Chairman Hugh Leatherman, who controls the state's money flow to a great degree and was heavily involved in previous deals to lure Boeing to South Carolina, said no one from the company has approached him seeking inducements for the new plane work. If Boeing comes calling, the state stands ready, he said.
Washington's governor on Monday signed into law $8.7 billion in tax breaks and other incentives to ensure 777X work stays in the Evergreen State.
Boeing has made it no secret it will look elsewhere besides Washington state to produce its new generation of wide-body jetliners if the 31,000 members of the International Association of Machinists union in the Pacific Northwest reject the new labor agreement.
Speaking at a lecture Wednesday at the University of Montana, Boeing CEO Jim McNerney said, "We will consider other alternatives if the vote goes negatively," KING-TV station reported.
The eight-year contract calls for union concessions on pension and health care benefits, but it offers members a $10,000 signing bonus and other carrots to accept the deal. The agreement would ensure no strikes through 2024. The current contract expires in 2016.
Boeing South Carolina top executive Jack Jones would not comment Tuesday during a ground-breaking ceremony for a new jet-propulsion plant in North Charleston on South Carolina's prospects of landing work for the 777X.
He reiterated Boeing's stance that if the union vote fails, the company will exercise its right to look outside Washington state.
The union vote on paper ballots ended at 6 p.m. Pacific time (9 p.m. Eastern). Results are not expected until after midnight Eastern time, after The Post and Courier's press deadline.
Reach Warren L. Wise at 937-5524 or twitter.com/warrenlancewise.
Machinists with International Association of Machinists District 751 encourage their fellow union members to vote no on the new contract offer while marching down Airport Road near their union hall in Everett, Wash., Wednesday, November 13, 2013. About 20,000 Boeing machinists in the Puget Sound cast their ballots Wednesday on a contentious contract proposal that would have workers exchange concessions for decades of secure jobs.

Preventing dengue, facilitating dialogue in Indonesia
25 November 2005, 16:27
I am writing with regards to the upcoming International Volunteer Day and other activities related to volunteering that will take place in December. I have attached a brief report on activities planned and you are welcome to participate.
Firstly you will see that in 4 December there is an action-orientated activity to help prevent dengue fever in a region of Jakarta. Plans are in the final stages for this activity and it does include the mobilization of a large number of volunteers. Originally it was planned for Monday, 5 December, but it had to be changed as the community felt it could not mobilize enough people on a Monday. Possibly public figures such as Nurul Arifin, and Farida Pasha will attend.
The plan is to have 30 facilitators and 90 volunteers. Each facilitator will be responsible for a small group of volunteers in a different region of Sungai Ciliwung Jakarta Timur. The action in essence is to organize a general clean-up and educate the community on dengue prevention.
If you are happy to help out and be a UN Volunteer facilitator for a day (a Sunday) please let me know by Monday 28th November. I am afraid fluent Bahasa is needed for the facilitators as they will direct a group of volunteers that won't necessarily speak English. Being a facilitator will entail some pre-training from the Ministry of Health through the Department of Dengue Fever Prevention. Initially this was thought to need half a day, but it might be done prior to the event earlier in the morning. This has not been finalized but I hope at the meeting I have today a decision will be reached that I will communicate to people who are interested in joining in. Beyond this training no specific knowledge is required. All in UN agencies are welcome to volunteer if they are interested so I hope you might pass on this information to staff that might not be on this mailing list.
In the afternoon of 5th December you will see a public dialogue on volunteering is planned. As part of this it is hoped that organizations that use volunteers submit an "X-banner" illustrating the work contributed by volunteers to their organization. Other UN agencies have been informed of this event and I hope they will participate. I am working on two banners for UNDP/UNV – one that illustrates this UNV's work in Aceh and the other that illustrates the role of volunteers in our work outside this region. Please let me know if you would like to attend this function, although seats are limited. This dialogue will be in Bahasa, but there are plans to have a translation service.

Technology is moving along at an alarming speed. Just a few years ago a librarian at the Boston Public Library showed me a link to the US Patent and Trademark Office website so I could look up patent reports online. Together, the librarian and I recorded the patent numbers of every patent listed under Peter Hoogerzeil, my 2x Great Grandfather, and then we looked through the volumes of books in the PTDL at BPL (that's the Patent and Trademark Depository Library at the Boston Public Library) to find each patent application. Then we carefully photocopied each one as we found it. It took hours! The librarian assured me (at that time) that this was much faster than any other way of doing patent searches.
Then, last summer I wrote a blog post about using the online database at http://www.uspto.gov/ to search for patent numbers by the name of the inventors. At that time, once you had the numbers, you could input them to see images of the patent applications. Check out the blog post here at http://nutfieldgenealogy.blogspot.com/2010/08/not-so-wordless-wednesday-peter.html and you can see that the process was still a big laborious, but better than my previous search.
Last week, on Deb Ruth's blog "Adventures in Genealogy", I read about the new Google Patents website at http://www.google.com/patents . Now by just entering Peter Hoogerzeil's name into the search box, I can pull up all the patent images with one click. I can also find all the other inventions up to now that have referenced his original patents in the 1800s and turn of the century. For example, in 1906, Peter Hoogerzeil of Massachusetts patented an amusement park ride for a giant see-saw. In 1950, Charles J. Jugans of New Jersey patented an "Excercising Toy" referencing Hoogerzeil's original patent and three other patents. Even more interesting, one of Hoogerzeil's chimney lamp patents from 1899 was used by the famous Coleman Company in 1984 for a new camping lantern! And one of Hoogerzeil's 1890 patents for a sliding door in an icebox was used in 1994 by Daewoo Electronics of Korea for a new type of refrigerator.
How fun to see that Peter Hoogerzeil's inventions are still relevant in today's world! It is very interesting to think that my Great-Great Grandpa's tinkering turned out to be so useful! The Google Patent search is very easy to use, and it will also make any inventions by family or ancestors pop up in your regular Google searches. All the patents from the 1790s to those "recently issued in the past few months" are available on this search engine.
For fun, I also looked up my first cousin, umpteen generations removed, Benjamin Franklin, and I was surprised to see that he had no patents recorded on the Google Patent website. I used the regular Google search and pulled up this quote from Benjamin Franklin "as we enjoy great advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously." This is why he had no recorded patents of any kind with the US government, even though he was a prolific inventor of all sorts of gadgets and household items.
For more information:
Please see Deb Ruth's stories about Google Patents here at "Treasure Chest Thursday- Google Patents" http://deb-adventuresingenealogy.blogspot.com/2011/01/treasure-chest-thursday-google-patents.html and "Treasure Chest Thursday – Steffy Patent" at http://deb-adventuresingenealogy.blogspot.com/2010/09/treasure-chest-thursday-steffy-patent.html

Looks like Jeff Sandquist?
It's too blurry to tell who it is for sure.
Jeff Sandquist?
Ha! We both posted at 2:31
I started typing the reply before then but then I rewinded and played back the video a few times before clicking ADD. I guess I should have ADDed it earlier. Of course it doesn't matter if we're both wrong
Hahaha, great video guys and very true also
I'll split the prize with you if were right.
LOL. plain and simple LOL.

And nobody has asked if that's Dan's real wife...lol
Good question, it's not
For some context, this is Laura's brain-child and she asked me to be in it, because, well, when she was thinking of someone that's obsessed with computers and who would get beaten up and abused in jail, she naturally thought of me
I jokingly told my wife that Laura had added a kissing scene, she was not amused even though I told her I had to do it "for work"

Akrid is the god of fate in the Dalatiist religion. He is said to sit at an enormous circular table and play Disk, (the game of fate), with each soul. Only one soul has beaten Akrid at his game, and that is Asknand, the god of minds.
Dead Man: "Akrid took my soul, dude!"
