Relief in Boston as New Details Emerge
WATERTOWN, Mass.—Residents in this Boston suburb breathed relief Saturday, while details emerged about the Boston Marathon bombings suspect's initial escape from police here and his eventual capture based on a lucky tip.
As the Boston Red Sox returned to Fenway, in a game that became a tribute to the bombing victims and first responders, neighbors in Watertown began returning to daily routines, relieved but still shaken by their ordeal.
"It was a relief when they captured him and we could all step outside onto the front porch," said Adam Levy, 32, who lives about five houses from the crime scene. "It was a relief that it ended and to see everyone step out and see everybody safe."
Law-enforcement officials and residents described a harrowing day in Watertown on Friday that began with a bloody shootout in which hundreds of rounds of ammunition were fired and the suspects threw several explosive devices at police, including one that police think was similar to the "pressure-cooker bomb" used in Monday's marathon attacks that killed three people and injured more than 170. A transit police officer was wounded, as was one of the suspects, who later died. Police told residents to remain indoors as they searched for the remaining suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who sped away from the shooting and eluded an intensive manhunt for nearly 20 hours.
Law-enforcement officials said Saturday that they had found five pipe bombs and three grenades after the firefight with police early Friday morning. Authorities also recovered at least one handgun and one long gun at the gunfire scene Friday.
It was only when police told residents they could leave their houses Friday evening that Mr. Tsarnaev was discovered, when a man stepped into his backyard to get fresh air and spotted blood inside his tarp-covered boat. The resident alerted police and dozens of law-enforcement officers raced to the scene, discovering Mr. Tsarnaev hiding in the boat. More shots were fired before they captured the wounded suspect and transported him to the hospital.
On Saturday, the house at 67 Franklin St.—which sits in a usually quiet neighborhood of historic homes—remained a crime scene, as police combed the area for evidence and retraced Mr. Tsarnaev's steps.
The chase for Mr. Tsarnaev and his brother and alleged accomplice, Tamerlan, began Thursday night with the fatal shooting of a campus police officer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After the shooting, the brothers allegedly used a gun to steal a Mercedes sport-utility vehicle, forcing the driver to give them his ATM number before pushing him out of the car.
The brothers fled, one driving the stolen Mercedes and the other their own Honda. They used the Mercedes' owner's ATM to withdraw $800. Police were able to track the Mercedes using its owner's cellphone—which had been left inside during the carjacking—to a back street in East Watertown, Watertown Police Chief Edward Deveau said in an interview Saturday.
About 12:25 a.m. a Watertown police officer spotted the cars and began pursuit. The officer's superiors told him not to stop the cars until backup arrived. But within two blocks, the brothers halted.

"All of a sudden they stop, jump out of the car and immediately start shooting at my police officer," Mr. Deveau said.
The officer backed up, and from 30 feet away began returning fire. Five more officers arrived. More than 200 gunshots were fired during a roughly 10-minute exchange. At one point, a suspect hurled a bomb that caused a "huge explosion," Mr. Deveau said. Police believe that bomb was like those used in Monday's attack because they later found a pressure-cooker lid embedded in a nearby car. The brothers also hurled four smaller grenade-like devices. Two exploded. Two failed to detonate.
At some point, Tamerlan Tsarnaev left cover and approached the police, firing. When the suspect ran out of ammunition, an officer tackled him in the street. As officers tried to apply handcuffs, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev sped at them in the stolen Mercedes.
"Somebody yells, 'Get out of the way,'" Mr. Deveau said. "They look up and here comes the brother in the black SUV roaring at them. They dive out of the way, barely get out of the way."
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev ran over his brother, dragging him under the car for about 40 feet. The brother was then taken to Beth Israel Deaconness Hospital where he died.
As Mr. Tsarnaev drove off, the police realized that a transit police officer at the scene had been shot and was bleeding profusely. Some attended to him as others pursued the car. By the time they found it, about 300 yards away, Mr. Tsarnaev had fled on foot into the darkness.
"We get to the car and he's gone," the chief said.
Police set up a perimeter around a 20-square-block area, stopping anyone who is outside. As residents awoke, authorities told them to stay in their homes, warning that one suspect was at large and considered extremely dangerous. Hundreds of police, many armed with rifles, swarmed the Watertown neighborhood. Helicopters flew overhead.
About 7:30 a.m. teams of police began searching house to house. Shortly afterward, they found urine and a pool of blood outside a home near where Mr. Tsarnaev fled. But the suspect wasn't there, and the trail went cold again.
Residents who live in the area said police were checking basements and backyards Friday morning. Some later returned with German Shepherds. Mr. Levy, the neighbor, said law-enforcement officials, guns drawn, searched his backyard. David Harrison, 50, who lives about two blocks away, said a heavily armed team searched his backyard, including an uninhabited carriage house.
But 67 Franklin St. was about a block outside the search perimeter, police said. After hours of fruitless searching, authorities called a news conference about 6 p.m. and announced that residents could leave their homes.
"We certainly did not give an all clear," Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis said later. "This was a very serious and dangerous situation. We had no information that the suspect was still holed up in this particular area. He managed to elude us by being just slightly outside of the perimeter that we set up."
Within 15 minutes of the announcement, the Franklin Street house's resident, David Henneberry, went out to his yard to get a breath of fresh air. Mr. Henneberry noticed that the tarp on his winterized boat was flapping in the wind, which he thought was odd because it should have been tightly secured, his stepson, Robert Duffy, told CNN. Mr. Henneberry peeked under the tarp and saw a pool of blood and "something crumpled up in a ball" in the front of the boat that he couldn't make out in the dimming light, Mr. Duffy said. At that point, Mr. Henneberry alerted local police.
That set off a new round of frightening events for residents who were emerging from their homes.
Chuck Thibeault and his son had just walked down their driveway Friday night after being holed up for 24 hours when "a barrage of cops come down the road and shoved us back in the house," he said. "Not a minute later they opened fire on a boat at the end of the street. There were like 150 cops here."
Mr. Thibeault, age 62, said, "As soon as they started shooting I hit the floor."
Police set up a perimeter around that boat. They proceeded cautiously, fearing that Mr. Tsarnaev was wearing explosives or that they might accidentally hit the fuel tank of the boat, which they were told was half full, state police said.
Mr. Davis said police wanted to capture Mr. Tsarnaev alive "so we can find out how it happened, why it happened and we can hold them for justice."
The Federal Bureau of Investigation sent a hostage-negotiating team. A helicopter outfitted with an infrared camera was able to tell police that Mr. Tsarnaev was moving around inside the boat, police said. Authorities used "flash bangs"—loud explosive devices intended to stun their targets —and Mr. Tsarnaev soon went quiet, Mr. Deveau, the Watertown police chief, said.
Negotiators spoke to Mr. Tsarnaev for 20 to 30 minutes. The suspect finally relented. He rose from the boat, and officers asked him to show his hands, then to lift up his shirt.
"We see that there is no explosive devices strapped to his chest," Mr. Deveau said. "That's when they grab him and pull him out."
Stephen DePamphilis, who lives down the street, said he heard someone announce into a bullhorn that the suspect had been "secured and apprehended." Then the law enforcement officers gathered on the street—Mr. DePamphilis counted 200 of them—started cheering.
Residents who had been on edge all day also burst into applause upon hearing the news that Mr. Tsarnaev was in custody.
"We are so happy, we are relieved," said Ashot Davtian." I feel bad for the people who lost their lives, but I am happy it's over."
Mr. Tsarnaev was transported to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston and placed in FBI custody, awaiting charges by the United States Attorney's office in Boston. Police said he had lost a lot of blood from injuries he sustained during the Friday-morning gunfight with police. It was unclear whether he was struck during a firefight with police before his capture, Mr. Davis said.

A fire that started under a trailer destroyed the Adams Township residence Sunday morning.
The fire at 4595 N. CR 43 was reported at 7:32 a.m. Sunday, according to a report.
Chief Greg Lowe of Green Springs Rural Volunteer Fire Department identified the owner as Jay Pump and said Pump and a woman who also lived there got out of the home safely. No one was injured, he said.
Lowe said the cause of the blaze was a faulty heat tape, which is used on pipes to prevent them from freezing in the winter, under the trailer. The fire started under the trailer and then spread to leaves and the trailer, he said.
When personnel arrived at the scene, heavy smoke was coming from the back of the trailer, he said.
He estimated firefighters had it under control within an hour, but they kept finding hot spots in the floors.
"The trailer was a total loss," he said.
The chief estimated damage at $25,000 to $30,000. He said personnel from American Red Cross, Green Springs EMS and Seneca County Sheriff's Office responded to the scene.
According to a release, Red Cross disaster responders provided assistance for shelter, food, clothing and shoes and kits containing personal hygiene items. Caseworkers will continue to work with the family, the release states.

I want Ashley Wagner, Gracie Gold, and Alissa Czisny.
I want Ashley Wagner, Gracie Gold, and Alissa Czisny.
Gracie, Courtney, and Angela.
Alissa is 85, what's the point?
Ashley is non-contender, what's the point?
Give the spots to someone fresh and young, and will carry the torch for the next few years.
Now, if Ashley and Alissa can outskate the young girls, then they earn their spots, and I have no problem with them going. I'm afraid they will be so propped up like the past few years.
Gold and Wagner, for sure. But definitely NOT Czisny or Nagasu. I'd like to see Christina Gao get the nod.
Courtney Hicks doesn't have the polish as yet, and she gets dinged for URs. I love Angela Wang, but I'd love her even more if she could skate a decent SP to go with her terrific FSs.
Wagner, Gold, and Gao.
(I'd loooove to see Christina get a ratified 3F-3T back into either or both her programs and show some of that sass that she exhibits in her Twitter updates in her programs next season.)
Ashley, Gracie, and either Christina or Agnes. The third spot doesn't matter TOO much for me, as long as it's not Alissa. She's had enough chances.
It would be amazing if it was Alissa, but she would have to earn it. Personally, I am hoping for Gao!
I want to see Wagner, Gao, and Czisny, just since Gold has the 2018 and 2022 Olympics in her future probably, and I dont think any U.S lady is going to medal whoever they send, so I just want to see certain ones get the shot to experience an Olympics. However that is never going to happen so Wagner, Gold, and Gao which is actually realistic. I fear it will end up being Wagner, Gold, and Zawadzki more likely though.
Why is Ashley a non-contender? But Alissa isn't? How many more chances does Alissa get before she's a non-contender? Sheesh.
I have no clue who's going to be on the podium but Ashley and Gracie will either be 1 and 2 or 2 and 1. Third is up for grabs. If it's Gao I hope her posture and speed improve. If it's Agnes I hope she can skate a clean long program for a change.
Personally I would like to see Mirai Negasu in one of those spots.
1. Gracie
2. Ashley
3. Christina (this is personal preference--given the USFSA's habit of holding her down, I wouldn't be surprised to see Agnes get the nod)
What's the likelihood of Alissa competing again?
Gracie Gold, Ashley Wagner and Gao, Wang or Hicks. No more Alissa or Mirai por favor.
I like Ashley, Gracie and GAO, but I would be happy to switch one of my 3 choices with Hanna Miller.
The purpose of USFS is not to evenly distribute 'the shot to experience an Olympics'. It is to send the BEST skaters of the season, based on performance at Nationals, whether or not they have the likelihood of winning a medal. To do anything else would make Nationals irrelevant, this year and every other year. Why not have the fans vote on who should be on the team, and forgo Nationals altogether, forever.

With No One to Say 'Fill 'Er Up' To
By Jorge Guitart
Your self at the self station
alone with psyche, your soul
who goes on a nuptial flight
and marries the starry night
You prayed for a violation
of one or more laws of causation.
Your case is encased in the case
encased in your head, which hardens with pleasures
then softens after the many erasures
and then there is nothing to face.
JORGE GUITART will join poets Gail Fischer and John Marvin in this month's Just Buffalo Literary Café at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Center for Inquiry, 1310 Sweet Home Road, Amherst. He is professor of Spanish Linguistics in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at the University at Buffalo. This poem is from his most recent collection, "The Empress of Frozen Custard and 99 Other Poems" (BlazeVOX Books, 2009).

The Mount Pleasant Planning Commission will hear a recommendation from the Planning and Development Committee that unanimously approved a requirement that all proposed new commercial buildings would have to go to the Design Review Board for approval.
The Design Review Board used to be mandatory, but a previous elected officials removed it from the ordinance requirements several years ago at the request of the development community. The goal was to make the process more efficient.
Currently developers have the option to have the town staff sign off on projects.
Mount Pleasant Mayor Linda Page brought the issue back to the forefront to give residents a chance to weigh in before a project is approved rather than after finalized plans come to light.
Committee members backed Page's push to have all new commercial building plans go before the town's Commercial Design Review Board.
"I want you all here in town hall from the beginning," Page told members of the committee and the public who attended the meeting Monday. "We are giving you back part of the process."
The seven member panel is appointed and remain as active members, but have not had to meet to discuss issues for projects such as architecture and landscaping.
The Planning Commission will hear the proposed recommendation in July, host a public hearing, and send it on to the full Town Council for approval.
The Commercial Design Review Board meets at 5 p.m. the last Wednesday of each month, unless otherwise noted in the Annual Meeting Schedule.
According to the town's website, "In order to maintain the sense of place of Mount Pleasant, all new commercial construction, remodeling and alteration activity must be approved through the commercial design review process. The design review process establishes a systematic and uniform review procedure for proposed construction based on the design review guidelines. Owners are encouraged to involve design professionals in the design of projects for improved design quality and assistance to project owners in interpreting design review guidelines. Design professionals may include a registered architect, landscape architect, civil engineer and other engineering disciplines as needed or required by building code."

LOCKPORT – A man who violated probation in a sexual misconduct case by not obtaining proper sex offender treatment was sentenced to a year in Niagara County Jail Friday by County Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas.
Darwin J. Fifield Jr., 34, of State Street, Gasport, refused to deal with a Lockport doctor who frequently counsels sex offenders, and refused to go to Mid-Erie Psychiatric Center in Buffalo for other services, Farkas said.
"In my world, an adult male who impregnates his teenage babysitter is a sex offender. He says he's not," Farkas said of Fifield, who admitted having sex with the 16-year-old in a Newfane mobile home park April 22, 2011.

We live in the sexiest time ever. For most of history, condoms were hollowed-out sheep guts, "getting lucky" meant not contracting a plague, and the more insane religions insisted that even masturbation was a sin (despite the fact that jerking off is the literal fucking definition of "enjoying yourself without bothering anyone else"). Any god against that is both a voyeur and a killjoy.
"Tell those starving children to WAIT, their Lord is busy watching Mrs. Jenkins think about Benedict Cumberbatch!"
Thanks to the Internet, the average modern teenager has seen more nudity than an orgiastic Roman emperor with X-ray vision. We've realized that human genitals are like LEGO: lots of fun to put together, and if you get bored with all the possible combinations, you can buy extra bits to connect. But this ability to screw absolutely everything has spilled over into, well, absolutely everything. For example: The '80s aren't just nostalgia, they're subconscious urges that have been stewing in hormones for 30 years.
Duelist Studios (NSFW)
It still gets longer when he shouts, but gives her an unfortunate double meaning for "Thundercats, ho!"
Sex has leaked into science fiction. And just like science fiction warned us, the real madness begins when this stuff escapes into the real world.
(All links in this article are obviously, ludicrously NSFW, unless your job is making these things.)
#6. Carbonite Kink (And a Real Companion Cube)
When you think of Star Wars sexy, I don't even need to finish this sentence.
Thinking of this image is more natural than turning on a light saber, and for men has similar effects.
But as proof that the Internet can do anything, Kink Engineering reversed the polarity of Princess Leia's gold bikini. They took something Star Wars that was dark instead of bright, entirely covers the body, and works just as well on men.
Kink Engineering
It's also the only way to hold someone still enough for a Stormtrooper to hit them.
They've fetishized the "frozen in carbonite" scene, which is how you tell Rule 34 to bow down and suck it. Especially since these vac-beds can come with sockets. As can the users. The vac-bed is a form of total bondage and proof that even insane ideas like "connecting your naked body to a vacuum cleaner" can work with sufficient technology. They're the rubber-wear equivalent of being locked in a stasis field, except you can still feel what happens to you. The user breathes through a hose, or can get a vac-bed with a hole for their face (which we assume is accompanied by a suitable Monty Python song).
Then they added a third dimension to achieve the impossible. Months after Portal's Companion Cube became popular online, and months minus one day after it became sickeningly overused, they found a way to put new life into the idea and make the name literal.
Kink Engineering
With this cube, you can eat your cake and have it.
Just like the game, it even has options for pushing yourself through what seem like physically impossible portals.
Kink Engineering
#5. Total Recall Sex Doll
In 1990, Total Recall predicted that the future would use technology to make our memories better. In 2012, Total Recall did the exact opposite.
Columbia Pictures
You'd think that people who make movies would know that "Trying to beat Schwarzenegger in a movie" doesn't work.
The most famous part of the original is the triple-breasted hooker, because that captured 150 percent of the attention it was possible to capture from adolescent boys.
Carolco Pictures
And just to prove that it's possible to screw up any idea (in two different ways), we have the Area 51 sex doll.
Pipedream Productions
Even the doll seems surprised to look so crap.
Pipedream Products doesn't have the official license, so Columbia Pictures has some standards (recent evidence to the contrary). But the trimammaries make it obvious that the "balloons you can screw" company checked the calendar, realized that some kids who went through puberty in 1990 should be nicely desperate by now, and made them a product.
In a weird way, it's actually realistic. Because despite what five versions of Star Trek have taught us, we're unlikely to find alien life sexually attractive. If you're already pretending that something is a comatose alien captured by the military, the feelings of unconvincing skin, disturbing internal pressures, and interplanetary levels of shame make a lot more sense. Whacking off is fine, but such a low-budget plastic bag is the most insulting way of telling your genetic material that it will never be needed. And that's still not the most unsexy inhuman option they offer.
Pipedream Productions
This one captures the full personality of the original. And will age more attractively.
#4. The Little Death Ray
The Little Death Ray combines Victorian design sensibilities, the French poetry of "la petit morte" as orgasm, '60s sci-fi styling, and modern vibration technology. It's like Lady Clankington harvested our existing history to build a real sonic screwdriver. And I didn't make up the name "Lady Clankington." The last person to jack off with this much science fiction was a character in Neuromancer, and she was connecting a very different kind of socket.
Lady Clankington
(Amazingly, there actually isn't a sonic screwdriver sex toy yet, despite that being the perfect name for one. And it explains how the Doctor gets more geek ladies wet than a sprinkler malfunction at a cosplay convention.)
Lady Clankington
Like all the best robotic dicks, the Death Ray is fully functional. So much so, it's built to accept replacement barrels when the originals wear out. These refractory replacements are 6.75 inches long and come in bronze or gunmetal gray. (Alas, genital dimensions are the one place where insisting on metric instead of imperial makes you the dick.) They're also working on the Butt Rogers Uranium Pistol. (How they resisted the urge to call it the Uranian Pistol is beyond me.)
Lady Clankington
Most weapons kick ass. This does something else.

Tonight was no exception. Probably on the verge of too much craziness at the ceramics shop with Arianne, her sister Carrington (when are you going to start a blog, mama-to-be?), & Jen. I got there first and picked the cutest teensy weensy gnome to paint and then (great minds think alike) guess what Arianne happened to pick- the big daddy gnome!
We were there until closing and you'd think I would have gotten more done with my little gnome, but it was my first time painting since, like, third grade, so I'm special. I can't wait to go back to finish him (tomorrow, anyone?)
When the ceramics place closed, we were not ready to go back home... so we went to dinner! And talked and talked, ate hot fresh bread and laughed some more. And then ate more bread. And tried to take pictures, but we were so loopy with bread and girl party fun-ness that we forgot how to use a camera (see video and the nice closeup of my salad.)
Finally the lady at the other table stopped laughing at us and offered to take our picture. I was still laughing.
It was during my time with the girls tonight that I had a wonderful feeling come over me of pure happiness. My laughter was that true, uninhibited laughter coming from some place unexpected, deep down, and free... it was just what I needed. I feel like I've stepped out of a very dark, heavy cloud into an amazing, warm & fuzzy hug. It feels so good to be here right now.

Kennesaw State University will host a lecture series on the history of Jews in the South. Historian Stuart Rockoff will present the series, "Bagels and Grits: A History of Jews in the South" for free April 24 at 6 p.m. in the KSU Social Sciences Building room 1019.
The series is co-sponsored by the KSU College of Humanities and Social Sciences and the Department of Museums, Archives and Rare Books.
Series creator Norman Radow is the past chair of the KSU Foundation and president and CEO of RADOC, an Atlanta-based real estate development company. Radow is launching the series in commemoration of his parents' contribution to culture and education.
Radow is vice president of the Southern Jewish Historical Society and former director of the history department at the Goldring/Woldenberg Institute of Southern Jewish Life in Jackson, Miss.
"We are so pleased that Norman Radow has created this lecture series in honor of his parents," said Catherine Lewis, history professor at KSU and executive director of Museums, Archives and Rare Books. "He has given so much to KSU, and we believe the Paul and Beverly Radow Lecture Series on Jewish Life supports KSU's mission and commitment to diversity."
Radow and his parents are all Jewish, he said. His goal with the inaugural lecture to provoke discussion within the Jewish community and among non-Jews.
He also wants to get KSU on the map and bring an audience who may not otherwise visit campus. Radow plans to stimulate the 800 Jewish students at Kennesaw and appeal to metro Atlanta Jews, he said.
Originally from Brooklyn, N.Y., Radow has noticed that Jews in the South are both similar and different from those in the North.
"It's a wonderful combination of Southern culture and Jewish tradition," Radow said.
Rockoff, the keynote speaker, will touch on the earliest history of Jews in Savannah, Ga., in 1733. He's studied the ways Jews have adapted to the culture of the South in terms of religious identity. His research comes from testimonies, archives and census documents. Rockoff has lived in Jackson, Miss., since 2002, classifying him as a Southern Jew for more than a decade.
"I could share my own stories, but I don't really do that," Rockoff said. "There are some elements that mirror my family's story, though."
A curiosity about his own family history inspired Rockoff to write a paper about his great-grandparents' immigration to America and their settlement in Houston, Texas, which brought recognition of the differences among Jews in the North and South, he said.
"There's a distinctive Southern way. They've adapted to that culture, and are quicker to alter their religious practices to be more like their non-Jew neighbors," he said. "There are commonalities among all Jews, but those in the South adapt."
Rockoff aims to challenge stereotypes through his speeches.

Mike Hansen wanted to write a children's book about bullying, among other things. All he had to do was look at his feet, where Earl, his faithful springer spaniel, was resting.
Despite Earl's sweet nature toward kids, adults and other canines, he was attacked once by another dog. Since then, rather than embrace Earl's nature, other dogs turn on him. They bully him.
Hansen didn't intend to write about Earl. But when he's asked about it, he agrees that he must have based Rocky, the book's main character, on Earl. Rocky's white and black, just like Earl, and he's probably a springer spaniel, too. There's only one significant difference: Rocky is the bully.
Hansen of Greeley wrote the story in his head during his long bike rides (he completed his first century ride a few weeks ago).
He works at United Airlines as a ticket taker and crewman. He's not a writer. But the story was there, and he wanted to get it out somehow. His two children were grown and out of the house, so he had the time for it. So he scratched it out, and after editing it "about 40 times," publishers told him the book was too long. So he decided to publish it himself.
"There's the shipping department," Hansen said, pointing to a desk in his living room.
In two months, he hired an illustrator, came up with a web site and found a printer. He worked with the illustrator over Skype. By Thanksgiving, he had printed and sold about 1,000 copies. The book, "Rocky at the Farm," cost him about $8,000. He's probably made about half of it back.
"It's my hobby," Hansen said. "It's not really something I did to make money."
There are other rewards. One kid sent him a half-page "book" of her own, and another sent a thank-you card. When a third read his first book, his mother wrote Hansen a letter that said the kid told her he needed to be nicer to his brother.
Rocky may be the bully, but there are reasons for it. Rocky was abandoned and thought he needed to be tough to survive. Hansen was moved around a lot as a child and remembers hating being the new kid all the time. Those feelings came out in Rocky's character. Once Leo, an orange cat, befriends Rocky, he comes around and joins a soccer team.
Leo's inspiration came from Hansen's orange cat, who is a bit of a sourpuss toward strangers, but the Hansens like him.
"He doesn't really have a name," Hansen said. "Sometimes we call him 'Waldo,' because we can't find him and we'll say, 'Where's Waldo?'"
Hansen enjoyed writing the book, and on a hike up Twin Sisters in Rocky Mountain National Park, he thought of a sequel, "Rocky's School Play." That book just came out.
Hansen has a deal now where he can print either book one at a time, on demand. He learned a lot from the first, so the second didn't cost him nearly as much.
Hansen has an idea for a stuffed animal line of the characters in the book, and he wants to help other authors market their books, but the idea, again, isn't to get rich.
Hansen hopes to teach some life lessons to kids without preaching.
In the second book, Rocky gets a big head after he does well in the school play before he finds a little humility. That may have been based on Earl, too, a dog who just seems happy with a pat on the head and the chance to lay by Hansen's feet while his owner works on another story inspired by him.

Freshman Dustin Dingus (Palm Harbor, Fla.), who entered the final round of the tournament with sole possession of the individual lead, posted a six-over par round of 77 in the final round to finish in a three-way tie for ninth in the tournament. South Carolina (859), led by teammates Caleb Sturgeon (210) and Will Starke (212) in the top two spots, took the team title by 20 shots over second place Winthrop (879). Jacksonville State (885) finished third with the College of Charleston (890) and Marquette (896) rounding out the top five. Stetson (918) finished three shots behind Connecticut (915) and four behind the host team from the College of Charleston (914) after Tuesday's 313, which was the Hatters' high score of the three-day event, dropping them from 10th place. Behind Dingus (72-69-77=218), Hatters junior Tyler White (Palm Harbor, Fla.) shot a three-over par 74 on Tuesday to finish with a score of 235 for the tournament, good for a tie for 77th in the event, which included 26 teams and 135 players. Sophomore Matt Taylor (Naples, Fla.) finished tied for 89th with freshman Andrew Peterson (Andover, Minn.). Taylor struggled home with an 84 on Tuesday to finish at 238 while Peterson had an 85 to post the same score. Freshman Brian Kehoe (Ketonah, NY) closed the tournament with a 78 to finish tied for 117th with a score of 243. The Hatters will close the fall season on Nov. 5-6 by hosting the Stetson Invitational at Victoria Hills Golf Club. Print Friendly Version More Headlines

Arriving at the Terengganu State Museum, you might think you've strayed into Alice in Wonderland. Visitors are confronted by a series of buildings modelled on the archetypal Terengganu village house, but absolutely gargantuan in scale. Somehow the dislocation in size is fitting though for, although it lacks the interactive exhibits of more modern establishments, the museum far outstrips most of its provincial counterparts.
The ground floor of the main building holds exquisite fabrics from around Southeast Asia, while the next floor up displays various crafts. The top floor details the history of Terengganu. The Petronas Oil Gallery, in the building to the left, is sporadically interesting but predictably skewed. Behind it, the old-fashioned Islamic Gallery displays fine examples of Koranic calligraphy.
Allow time to see the rest of the site. Beside the river are two examples of the sailing boats for which Kuala Terengganu is famed – unique blends of European ships and Chinese junks. The small Seafaring Gallery and larger Fisheries and Marine Park Gallery are close by, as is a collection of smaller, beautifully decorated fishing boats. Five old timber buildings have been disassembled and reconstructed within the grounds. Among them, the Istana Tengku Long was originally built in 1888 entirely without nails, which to Malays signify death because of their use in coffins.

Happy Holidays!
Kid and Kitty Update: Both doing well. M now says "daa-ee" for Daddy and "Mma" for Amma. She understands when I'm not happy about something she has done and immediately says "Ai Ai Ai", which is her version of "I Love You"! She knows that's one way to get me to smile. How quickly they learn to manipulate!
Attached here is a short video of M playing with Ginger. I don't know how Ginger puts up with her manhandling (or is it cat-handling?!). I guess she understands that it's M's way of showing love! I apologize for the quality of the video- this was taken on my 2MP digital camera (yes, yes, I know I have to update my camera!). It is about 30 seconds long. Enjoy!

So, you disagree with this assessment?
I think most SANE Wings fans would. At the same time, he is entitled to his opinion. Just like I have stood up for the refereeing that many people here think is ungodly bad. Does my opinion about the refereeing fall into the "trolling" category just because it differs from the majority? No.
To be totally honest, I believe they should be shutting down people who are levying personal attacks against other members. There is a way to have a great debate on a topic. Levying personal attacks isn't the way to go.
I agree 100% about the personal attacks
Disagreement is fine, but when nearly all of your posts on a Red Wings forum are taking shots at the Wings you're straddling the line from being a dissenter to a contrarian troll.
A sophisticated breed, Contrarian Trolls frequent boards whose predominant opinions are contrary to their own. A forum dominated by those who support firearms and knife rights, for example, will invariably be visited by Contrarian Trolls espousing their beliefs in the benefits of gun control. It is important to distinguish between dissenters and actual Contrarian Trolls, however; the Contrarian is not categorized as a troll because of his or her dissenting opinions, but due to the manner in which he or she behaves:
Contrarian Warning Sign Number One: The most important indicator of a poster's Contrarian Troll status is his constant use of subtle and not-so-subtle insults, a technique intended to make people angry. Contrarians will resist the urge to be insulting at first, but as their post count increases, they become more and more abusive of those with whom they disagree. Most often they initiate the insults in the course of what has been a civil, if heated, debate to that point.
Contrarian Warning Sign Number Two: Constant references to the forum membership as monolithic. "You guys are all just [descriptor]." "You're a lynch mob." "You all just want to ridicule anyone who disagrees with you."
Contrarian Warning Sign Number Three: Intellectual dishonesty. This is only a mild indicator that is not limited to trolls, but Contrarians display it to a high degree. They will lie about things they've said, pull posts out of context in a manner that changes their meanings significantly, and generally ignore any points for which they have no ready answers.
Contrarian Warning Sign Number Four: Accusing the accusers. When confronted with their trolling, trolls immediately respond that it is the accusers who are trolls (see Natural Predators below). Often the Contrarian will single out his most vocal opponent and claim that while he can respect his other opponents, this one in particular is beneath his notice.
Contrarian Warning Sign Number Five: Attempts to condescend. Pursued by Troll Bashers (see Natural Predators below), the Contrarian will seek refuge in condescending remarks that repeatedly scorn his or her critics as beneath notice all the while continuing to respond to them.
Contrarian Warning Sign Number Six: One distinctive mark of Contrarian Trolls is that every thread in which they dissent quickly devolves into a debate about who is trolling whom. In the course of such a debate the Contrarian will display many of the other Warning Signs mentioned above.

George Clooney and Stacy Keibler have split.
The couple, who began dating two years ago, apparently want different things in life.
"Stacy called it quits. She wants to have children and a family someday. She knows where George stands on that," a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE exclusively. "They talked and they quietly stopped being a couple several weeks ago."
The source also says Clooney, 52, and Keibler, 33, will remain on good terms: "They talk every day. They were friends before they started dating and they'll be friends after. It was a friendly [breakup]."
Although she wants to be a mom one day, it's clear Keibler is already a dedicated godmother. She Tweeted a birthday wish to her goddaughter with a series of hashtags – "#mylove #myheart #mygoddaughter" – on June 10, before posting an inspiring message the next day about going through tough times. "Trying times are not the times to stop trying," she Tweeted.
The news of a split comes after the pair have spent a lot of time apart. They were last photographed together in March in Berlin, where Clooney was filming his upcoming drama Monuments Men.
In a recent interview with PEOPLE to promote her new show Supermarket Superstar, premiering July 22 on Lifetime, Keibler spoke about her hectic schedule and her desire to travel this summer.
"My schedule is keeping me pretty busy until the show airs and then hopefully I'll get the chance to go to Europe," she said. (Look for more from Keibler's interview in an upcoming issue of PEOPLE.)
But while Clooney was photographed boarding a boat near his Italian villa on July 4, Keibler partied with girlfriends in Los Angeles at a starry bash thrown by top Hollywood manager Guy Oseary and hosted by DeLeon Tequila.
"They haven't seen each other in a while and they've both been working so much, so in recent months, they've started growing apart," a second source tells PEOPLE.

Getting Started with Service Bus. Part 3: Service Bus Explorer
- Posted: Dec 07, 2012 at 11:28AM
Right click "Save as…"
In this 3rd episode of the "Getting Started with Service Bus" series, and for a while the last one that doesn't focus on the developer API, I'm looking at Paolo Salvatori's Service Bus Explorer.
Paolo works as one of our experts in the globally distributed Windows Azure Customer Advisory Team and has been building this tool based on what he and the customers needed in terms of extra tooling in the project context. The tool has been a great source of inspiration for the Visual Studio tooling that I explained in the last Getting Started episode and Paolo keeps adding new features with a new version coming out soon. Here I'm discussing Paolo's August 2012 release that coincided with the Service Bus 1.0 for Windows Server release and works for Service and Server.
Aside from being a useful tool for what it does, it's also a good code sample for how to interact with the Service Bus management API, so you might browse through the code even if you've already made the first steps with Service Bus.
Oops, something didn't work.

CALCUTTA - After reports of an armed robbery began to surface Wednesday, Calcutta Elementary went into a "soft lockdown," but St. Clair Township police said the reports were false.
Township Detective Brian McKenzie said a call went out from Hancock County about a man driving a red car who had been involved in an incident there who might be headed toward a residence off St. Clair Avenue.
According to other police sources, the man may have been involved in a home invasion in Hancock County in which a knife was used.
East Liverpool officers were waiting for the man, but he never appeared in the city, according to detectives there.
Nonetheless, "someone got information skewed as an armed robbery near Calcutta School," McKenzie said, adding, "There was no armed robbery anywhere near the school. Nothing like that even remotely happened. Had there been any dangerous situation at all, we would have notified the school ourselves."
McKenzie said he learned, however, that the school "followed its protocol after it got a call." He was unable to say who called the school with the false information.
Reportedly, the false information began circulating on Facebook, prompting calls to not only McKenzie but the city police department.
Superintendent Kent Polen was out of the district at a meeting and received a call informing him Calcutta had been placed in a soft lockdown, and he said yesterday afternoon he was uncertain who called the school and raised the initial alarm causing the lockdown.
A soft lockdown entails normal teaching and other activities continuing but students not being allowed outside, according to Polen, who said the school was locked down for about 30 minutes until McKenzie arrived and assured school officials there had been no situation endangering students or staff members.
"Better safe than sorry," Polen said about the staff's actions.

March 25, 1917 – May 9, 2013
Mary Ardelle Pitkin, a French teacher at Iroquois Central School in Elma from 1965 to 1992, died May 9 in Orchard Park. She was 96.
Mrs. Pitkin, known as "Dell," was the daughter of Augustus Hunt Shearer, a University of Buffalo history professor, head of the Buffalo Grosvenor Library and founder of UB's first Library Science program, and Inez Rogers Shearer, a well-known local artist and member of the Garret Club of Buffalo. Mrs. Pitkin was born in Evanston, Ill., but raised in Buffalo.
She graduated from the Park School of Buffalo in 1934. She first visited France with her family as a teenager, then attended the Sorbonne in Paris in 1937 while she was an undergraduate at Smith College, leading to a lifelong love for France and the French language.
After graduating from Smith with a bachelor's degree in 1938, Mrs. Pitkin taught at the Park School and then at Ashley Hall in Charleston, S.C. In September 1939, she returned to France to begin work as a teacher, but was evacuated in November to escape the Nazi invasion.
On May 11, 1942, she married Lt. Cmdr. John Townsend Pitkin, a Navy flight surgeon whose postwar career as a psychiatrist concentrated on work with children. Her husband died in 1989.
Mrs. Pitkin was active in Eastern European refugee relief after the war.
The Pitkins lived in Ann Arbor, Mich., from 1949 to 1957, and Mrs. Pitkin earned a master's degree at the University of Michigan in 1954.
The family returned to Western New York, and from 1965 to 1992, Mrs. Pitkin taught French at Iroquois Central School, occasionally teaching classes in Latin and New York state history. She also taught French in adult education classes at East Aurora High School.
Mrs. Pitkin was a longtime member of the League of Women Voters and the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of East Aurora, as well as the Ecumenical Book Club.
Mrs. Pitkin traveled extensively through the United States and Canada, as well as China, Austria and Italy and throughout Europe, especially France.
She is survived by four children, Anne, Sarah, Kit and Ben; and a brother, David H. Shearer.
A memorial service will be held at a later date.

It's here, I wish I had more to say, but I'm losing my voice (literally) so I'm going to say fewer words today if I can. I have a whole lot to say tonight! There are only 65 tickets left for Listen To Your Mother tonight. How awesome if we sell out, but I will be crushed if I have to turn anyone away.
I feel an amazing calm.
I am proud of June, Heather, Meagan, Adam, Love, Suzy, Sharon, Liz, Kate, Megan, Patrick, and myself.
