The Stetson men's tennis team will welcome in Georgia State, Friday, Feb. 28th in what will be its first of four home matches during the coming week and six total matches during its current home stand.
The Hatters will square off against the Bulldogs, 2:30 p.m. Friday, at the Mandy Stoll Tennis Center and then host Niagara, South Alabama, and Presbyterian the following Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
"Everybody is excited to play and compete more, especially with the majority of our matches in March being held at home," Stetson associate head coach Christophe Noblet said. "Our primary focus needs to be on doubles. Our start and intensity was better last weekend against Northwood, so I am looking forward to seeing that standard continue in each of the upcoming matches."
Stetson stands at 2-2 on the year, having taken match-ups with Georgia Tech and Northwood and dropping meetings with Georgia Tech and Florida Atlantic. The Bulldogs come to DeLand from the Sun Belt Conference and carry a 5-7 record into the weekend, having defeated A-Sun opponents USC Upstate and ETSU earlier in the season. Their most recent match took place this past weekend, a 6-1 loss at the hands of No. 59 Nebraska. GSU has spent four weeks as a ranked squad, with their highest ranking coming at No. 62.
"The core of the season is now around the corner," Noblet explained. "With four matches in a week, the players will be tested physically, so the recovery factor is an important one."
The Hatters will have the rest of the weekend off to recover before hosting Niagara, 11 a.m., Monday, March 3, followed by a Wednesday, March 5th match-up with South Alabama at 2 p.m. Stetson's stretch of four matches in seven days concludes with a Friday, March 5 meeting between SU and Presbyterian at 9 a.m. The Stetson squad will finish out the home stand, hosting Siena and Appalachian State the following week.
Live Results will be available for all home matches. Fans can also follow @StetsonTennis on Twitter and sign up for Hat-Alerts for match updates.

Also known as an initial security alert, a 90-day fraud alert notifies potential credit grantors to verify your identification before extending credit in your name.
You will now be redirected to Experian's online fraud center.
In most cases, fraudulent activity can be detected by reviewing the accounts, inquiries and addresses that appear on a credit report. Review your report carefully for the following items:
Once you have confirmed fraudulent activity on your credit report or from another source, file an identity theft report with a law enforcement agency, typically your local police department.
Call the special telephone number listed on your credit report. You can speak with an Experian consumer assistance associate who is trained in fraud victim assistance. Experian will work with you to investigate the fraudulent information on your credit report.
Also known as an extended fraud victim alert, a 7-year fraud victim alert requires that you must be a victim and provide a police report. To request this alert, follow these steps:
Even though the fraudulent accounts created under your name were not from you, it is in your best interest to contact those businesses and let them know you were a victim of fraud. Contacting them directly may help you resolve the fraudulent information in your credit report more efficiently.
Notifying your existing account holders of your victimization is a good idea, as it may help to reduce further fraudulent activities.
If you suspect you are a victim of identity theft, here is some important contact information that can help you respond:
It is important that you check your credit reports regularly because early detection is key to minimizing the damage that mistakes and fraudulent activity can have on your credit. Experian's credit monitoring service checks your three credit reports daily and notifies you when key changes are detected. You also get unlimited online access to your credit report and score.
Get a dedicated Experian® Identity Theft Resolution Agent to handle every aspect of your identity restoration for $149.95.
A temporary alert for consumers who have reason to believe they may be victims of fraud. Its purpose is to alert creditors that a consumer recently has been victimized or has a time-sensitive concern about identity theft. The alert will be deleted automatically when it expires after 90-days.
Victims of fraud may add a long-term (seven year) fraud prevention statement to their consumer file when they submit a valid Identity Theft Report. The Extended Fraud Victim Alert warns creditors that the consumer has been victimized. Two telephone numbers can be provided in the victim statement so creditors can call the consumer at a designated daytime or evening number when the creditor is processing a potentially fraudulent credit application.
Consumers can "freeze" their credit files to prevent businesses, with some exceptions, from accessing a consumer's credit report unless the consumer first removes the freeze using a personal identification number (PIN) provided by Experian. Fraud victims can freeze their credit files free of charge. There may be a nominal fee for non-victims.
You must add freezes and request that they be lifted separately at each of the national credit reporting companies. Different PIN numbers will be issued by each credit reporting company. Prices and requirements vary by state based on each state's laws.
Members of the U.S. military who are on active can add an Active Duty Alert to their credit history to help protect them from potential fraud and identity theft. An Active Duty Alert remains for one year and notifies creditors that the consumer is a member of the U.S. military currently on active duty, enabling them to take appropriate precautions to prevent fraud. When an Active Duty Alert is added, the credit report is removed from prescreen solicitations for two years. There is no fee to add an Active Duty Alert.
Calculated on the PLUS Score model, your Experian Credit Score indicates your relative credit risk level for educational purposes and is not the score used by lenders. Learn More.

IPS Launches Rockwell at +2068 TPI
IPS Launches Rockwell at +2068 TPI
The April 2012 sire summaries resulted in new genetic trendsetters for International Protein Sires. "We are very excited with the positive developments of our proven sire lineup as a result of the recent proofs. The IPS genomic tested young sire offering also gained several new breed leaders. Dairy farmers around the world have endorsed the IPS genetic trendsetters; a profound assessment of their breeding value," stated Ron Sersland, President and CEO of IPS.
The newest proven IPS trendsetter, 6HO1126 Rockwell, came in with an impressive +2068 TPI and +1920 milk proof. Among his many attributes, Rockwell excels in components. In fact, Rockwell is the only progeny tested bull over +2.00 for type with milking daughters that exceeds 150 pounds combined fat and protein. Along with a strong type score of +2.18, the bull's foot and leg rating approaches +2.00. Rockwell descends from the "Queen of the Breed," Roxy. A son of Toystory, his five nearest dams classify Excellent. His EX-95 grand dam yielded 66,420 pounds milk at 4-10. As a source of refreshing bloodlines, Rockwell has no O-Man, Shottle, Goldwyn, Outside or Durham in his pedigree.
6HO1046 Bevan gains dairy farmer appeal with each sire summary. At +1884 GTPI, Bevan is a well-balanced bull for milk production and solid type traits. He is the only bull in the breed with +300 milk, +0.15% fat, +4.4PL and +1.20 type. Bevan is truly a fitness specialist. For those who utilize analysis for their breeding guide, Bevan offers the rare qualities of aAa: 246135 along with DMS: 456.
Another IPS breed leader is 99HO6145 Barry. Barry's prestigious SCR (semen conception rate) score of +4.7 ranks #1 among proven bulls having milking daughters with a type proof. This proven sire provides a complete package for type qualities at +2.04 along with milk yield. In addition, his components are excellent. While Barry's calving ease is unique at 6, he is an excellent source of strength. On Barry's maternal side, his three direct dams have received Gold Medal Dam designations. And, all three have superior components.
The IPS's genomic rated young sire offering has resulted in quality growth with several new additions. A leader of this pack is 183HO2131 Shame at +G2356. A top 50 caliber GTPI young sire, Shame would rank #2 for type at +4.15 and #3 for udder composite at +3.44. A Planet son, Shame is from an Excellent Shottle daughter. Following close behind Shame is 6HO1163 Lights Out. A Superstition son from an Excellent Shottle daughter, Lights Out is +2,305 GTPI. And from the exciting Red spectrum, 54HO552 Barbwire-Red is being used around the world. At +3.01 type, Barbwire is sired by Shaquille from the Excellent-95 Talent daughter, Barbara. Barbwire sired a four month old red calf that sold for $9,400 in the recent Siemer's Holstein Sale.
IPS continues to offer outstanding production bulls with 6HO1150 Yankee currently ranked #2 in the breed for milk. 36HO0400 Avalanche is a breed trendsetter in three categories; #3 for type at +3.58, #2 for foot and leg at +3.64 along with #5 for udder composite at +3.32. Two leading proven sires for productive life are: 6HO1152 Zade at 6.0 and 6HO1124 Tycoon-Red with a 5.6 rating.
These progressive genetic improvements position the IPS sire lineup among the breed's trendsetters. The worldwide growth for IPS genetics has resulted through an ever expanding independent distributor organization.

FO and a Contest
Dear Ann: Good morning! First, an FO. At least my part of this O is F'd. Niece Kristin has been steadily knitting away on dishrags and Honey Cowls, and wanted to make her first sweater. After some Ravelry browsing, she chose Sambuca. Sambuca is the perfect sweater for someone with a perfect waistline. I also love the placement of the colorwork in the body instead of the yoke. As an extension of my cast-on service for new knitters,...Read More

The Ohio Benefit Bank (OBB) is a public-private partnership that helps connect low and moderate income Ohioans with free tax preparation and access to potential public benefits and work supports. In May 2008, CRC began providing services to those offenders who have 30 days or less to serve in our system. In partnership with the Governor's Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives (GOFBCI) and the Ohio Association of Second Harvest Food Banks, The OBB encourages eligible Ohioans to claim tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and public benefits such as food stamps, child care subsidies, home energy assistance and children's health care insurance, by helping them prepare and file applications. Volunteer Benefit Bank counselors are available to help determine eligibility and complete applications for inmates and their families.
Many institutions participate in fostering and training abandoned dogs for adoption.
In 2000, former First Lady Hope Taft approached the Director about establishing a reading room for the children who visited their incarcerated parent at the Pickaway Correctional Institution. This idea spread across the state, and now the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction maintains children's reading rooms in each prison.
The reading rooms encourage family literacy by providing a pleasant and comfortable setting for both child and incarcerated parent. Each room is stocked with a wide variety of children's books and has an inmate narrator who reads to the visiting children twice a day. The role of the inmate narrator is to read picture books to the children in much the same manner that children's hour would be done at a public library.
A variety of arts and craft supplies for the children are also available in most of the rooms. Many of the supplies and books are donated by employees and service organizations.

This year, at my house, we are having homemade holidays.
I am tired of being stressed about shopping and money at this time of year.
We are going to keep things simple but make them really meaningful. Thanks to my new obsession with Pinterest (anyone else?!), I have a ton of fun ideas for holiday crafts and gifts.
One thing I am doing with my kids (ages 3 and 1) is making hand ornaments and cards for grandparents. Who doesn't love a gift that comes from the heart? One thing that is really special about this craft is that it allows you to look back later and remember how small your little ones used to be. Both of these crafts can be done with paint if you want (and sometimes it is easier with really little ones to dip in paint and stamp instead of tracing their hands and feet).
Turkey Hand Card
Brown and various colored construction paper
Googly eyes (optional)
Using the brown construction paper, cut out the shape of a turkey body. I make mine the shape of a peanut so it is like you are looking at it straight on. Next, trace your kiddos' hands on the various colors of construction paper and cut out. You need 3-6 depending on the size of their hands and the body. Glue the hands to the back of the body around the sides and top of the head. Use construction paper to make legs and a gobbler (this is a technical term my son came up with for the wattle). You can use googly eyes or draw them on with a marker! If you want to turn this into a card you can write on the tummy area or glue the finished turkey onto white construction paper, cut around it and write on the back.
Reindeer Hand and Foot Ornament
Brown (light and dark) construction paper
Red pom poms (small size)
Googly eyes (optional)
Ribbon (for hanging)
Using the dark brown construction paper, trace around your kiddo's foot and cut it out. This is the head! Using the light brown paper, trace their hands (make sure you do both hands, not two left or two right) and cut out. These are the antlers. Glue the antlers to the back of the head and then use googly eyes or markers to make eyes. Next, glue a red pom pom on for the nose. You can decorate the antlers if you want or just leave them plain! Poke a hole at the top for the ribbon and you are done!

Serves 12 |
Prep Time 10 minutes |
Cook Time 7 minutes
16 cup popped, Eden Popcorn, (1/2 cup raw kernels yields 16 cups popped corn)
1/2 cup unsalted peanuts, optional
1/2 cup Eden Barley Malt Syrup
1/2 cup organic maple syrup
Cold Water
Combine the barley malt and maple syrup in a small sauce pan. Bring almost to a boil over a high flame. Reduce to medium-low and simmer, stirring constantly, for 7 minutes. Pour the hot syrup over the popcorn and peanuts and mix thoroughly. Moisten your hands slightly with cold water and take a handful of the mixture and form into a ball while packing firmly with your hands. Repeat the above steps, making sure to moisten your hands before making each ball.

Court records show Casey Anthony has competed an online course required to keep her bankruptcy case afloat.
The certificate dated April 26, shows that Anthony completed an online personal financial management course required by the federal bankruptcy court.
In a hearing last month, attorneys for the two people suing Anthony in state court, Zenaida Gonzalez and Roy Kronk, asked for more time to file objections to Anthony's bankruptcy action.
The judge suggested resolving those two civil suits in state court first to see if Gonzalez and Kronk will still be creditors of Anthony's after the suits are resolved.
The judge will take up the latest motion on May 8 in Tampa.

"Cautiously optimistic – anxious as well," Green Day bassist Mike Dirnt responds when asked how he's feeling in the wake of the greatest crisis his band has ever known: the public meltdown of singer-guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong during Green Day's set at the iHeartRadio festival in Las Vegas last September and Armstrong's subsequent trip into rehab for alcoholism and addiction to prescription medications.
"I'm excited that everything is going to take off again," Dirnt continues, referring to Green Day's return to touring in a few weeks, officially starting in Chicago on March 28th. "I just want to make sure we get one foot in front of the other and do it right."
In the new issue of Rolling Stone, Armstrong breaks his silence in an exclusive interview. He describes in frank detail his collapse in Vegas, the dangerous habits and emotional turmoil leading up to that day, and his ongoing recovery. Armstrong also talks candidly about the state and future of his band, including the impact of his troubles on Green Day's recent triple-album gamble, ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tré!

As an otolaryngologist, Dr. Russell Kitch specializes in ear, nose and throat issues. "I like the diversity both in the range of medical and surgical treatments and in being able to work with patients of all ages," he says. "I've seen patients from newborns to a man who was 117. He was one of the two oldest people in the world at the time." Dr. Kitch leads the caring staff at Low Country ENT, located by Trident Medical Center, and he has been treating patients in the Charleston area since 1991. "Most of the children that we see are for recurrent ear infections and recurrent tonsillitis, and they are readily treatable in most cases." An audiologist on staff also provides hearing aids. His other interests include sinus and rhinitis issues as well as hearing and balance problems such as recurrent vertigo, which can often be resolved with a non-surgical procedure that only takes a few minutes. "We also see a fair number of head and neck cancers, which thankfully are very curable if caught early." Dr. Kitch is board-certified in otolaryngology, head and neck surgery as well as sleep medicine.

July 2008 is when Scotty Bowman left our then great organization to work alongside his son in the Blackhawks front-office (I'm not sure of the exact date, so I'll just include all the things that happened that month on Holland's post-Bowman resume'). There are those here who believe that Bowman's role in our organization as an advisor was not a large one, but I am certainly not one of those fans. I think that Holland having Bowman to go to for advice made a very significant difference in a lot of things around here; and I think that we should all at least take a look at Ken Holland's post-Bowman resume'.
Significant Draft Picks (that have played in at least one NHL game...the 2008 draft was in June):
-2009: Tomas Tatar (9 career games, 1 goal, 1 point)
-2010: Riley Sheahan (1 career game, 4 penalty minutes)
...10 games, 1 point and 4 penalty minutes out of our last three drafts (and 0 playoff games). That's not good. I know it takes time to develop young players in general. I know that we draft especially young players. I know that we like to take an especially long time to develop them. And I know that we've got some other potentially promising prospects in the system that we've drafted since then - Cale Jarnrkrok(2010), Teemu Pulkkinen(2010), Petr Mrazek(2010) and Tomas Jurco(2011). But still, it's not good. There are other NHL teams that have drafted significant contributors late since 2009. And how much are we really expecting of the aforementioned prospects anyways? I won't hold this against Ken Holland for the reasons stated above, but his post-Bowman drafting has certainly not yet shown itself to be a positive. That much is fair.
Significant Free Agent Signings:
-2008/2009: M. Hossa, T. Conklin
-2009/2010: T. Bertuzzi, D. Miller, P. Eaves, J. Williams.
-2010/2011: R. Salei, M. Modano
-2011/2012: I. White
-2012/2013: D. Brunner, M. Samuelsson, J. Tootoo, J. Gustavsson
...Man, underwhelming, isn't it? The Hossa signing was a great one for sure. But it was him and his agent that sought us out, not the other way around. The Ian White signing I thought was great, but not an enormous impact-signing. The Bertuzzi signing was okay I guess. Salei was a solid signing, for the price, as a sixth D. Miller is a solid depth guy. Eaves would be, albeit an overpaid one, if he was healthy. Conklin was okay as a backup. Williams and Modano didn't pan out. The one's this off-season we'll have to wait and see on. But man, honestly, in the last five seasons White is really the only significant addition that we've made to the team through FA. Certainly a negative for Holland here thus far.
Significant Trades:
-2010/2011: V. Leino for O. Tollefsen
-2011/2012: 1st round pick for K. Quincey
...The Leino trade was obviously a horrific one. IMO, the Quincey one was a waste of a pick as well (he's not very..good). Certainly another negative for Holland here thus far.
-2008/2009: Stanley Cup Finals Losers.
-2009/2010: Second round exit.
-2010/2011: Second round exit.
-2011/2012: First round exit.
...Seems we're just getting worse and worse, losing more and adding less, with each passing season since Bowman left. Cooincidence? I think not.
Here's a new way to evaluate Holland's performance here since Bowman left: How has he replaced what we've lost from the 2008 Stanley Cup Championship team he inherited? It might not be an all-inclusive method of evaluation, but it's certainly an angle that's at least worth looking at.
*Keep in mind that we're talking about the player we had IN 2008...and then what we have now.
J. Hudler----------D. Brunner. I'll have to see it to believe it, but from what we've been told, Brunner now shouldn't be much of a drop-off from Hudler of 08.
T. Holmstrom----------G. Nyquist. Very, very different players, but I really, really like Nyquist, so I'll dare to again say "not much of a drop-off."
K. Draper----------J. Abdelkader. Abby might never be what Draper was, but isn't much worse now than Draper was in 08...aside from faceoffs. Not much of a drop-off.
D. Drake----------T. Bertuzzi. Again, very different players. Drake did some things Bert doesn't. Bert does some things Drake didn't. Not much of a drop-off.
D. McCarty----------J. Tootoo. Tootoo's not the intimidator McCarty was, even in 08. McCarty wasn't the skater that Tootoo is. Not much of a drop-off.
K. Maltby----------D. Miller. See the Draper/Abdelkader comparision. Not much of a drop-off.
M. Hartigan----------P. Eaves. Probably the one instance amongst the forwards of actual improvement. Too bad it's the 14th forward.
N. Lidstrom----------J. Ericsson. I won't even dignify this by attempting to compare.
B. Rafalski----------I. White. Not even close.
B. Stuart----------K. Quincey. Not really close.
A. Lilja----------B. Smith. Perhaps an improvement?
B. Lebda----------J. Kindl. How in the world do you not improve over Lebda in 4 seasons?
C. Chelios----------???
C. Osgood----------J. Howard. Not quite there yet. But not that far off either.
D. Hasek----------J. Gustavsson. Backup goalies don't matter enough to get into this one.
In general:
1) The forward group remains more or less the same, though older. I'd say that age has had more of a negative impact than development has had a positive impact.
2) The defensive group has been completely wiped out and not even close to replaced in most cases.
3) The goalies are more or less the same.
So, there you have it. That's what Ken Holland's done. Hasn't improved anything since he's been here. Has let us get A LOT worse on the back end. That's it. All there is to it. Bottom line. Period.

Two local assemblymen are asking the New York Power Authority to back away from a decision to use $5.4 million of the proceeds from the sale of unallocated hydropower to fund the Launch NY program to help fledgling businesses.
The Western New York Power Proceeds Allocation Board on Monday approved the funding for Launch NY, a state-sponsored initiative to assist start-up companies that also will conduct the nationwide business plan competition that is part of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo's "Buffalo Billion" initiative.
"It is inappropriate to be funding a Buffalo Billion project out of the finite resources available to the proceeds board," said Assemblyman Robin L. Schimminger, D-Kenmore, who co-authored a letter Friday to the Power Authority board criticizing the use of the power proceeds money to fund Launch NY.
"If the governor wants to have a business contest, that's great," said Schimminger, who wrote the letter with Assemblyman Dennis Gabryszak, D-Cheektowaga. "To fund it out of Western New York Power Proceeds funds is just not appropriate."
The assemblymen urged the Power Authority board "not to support" the use of the power proceeds funding for Launch NY at its board meeting Tuesday.
Anthony J. Colucci III, chairman of the Power Authority Proceeds Board, issued a statement Friday evening defending the use of the power proceeds as consistent with the region's plans for economic development.
"The numerous Western New York representatives on the Regional Economic Development Council supported this very type of effort in developing a regional strategy," he said. Launch NY is patterned after the successful Jumpstart Cleveland, a program that began in 2004 to accelerate the success of entrepreneurs and has grown to include 440 clients. The program is credited with the creation or retention of more than 1,500 jobs.
The Launch NY program, which aims to help companies in 27 upstate counties, is set to receive $5.4 million in funding – almost a quarter of the $23.2 million that has been set aside for economic development projects within 30 miles of the Niagara Power Project. The funds were raised through the sale of Niagara hydropower that was sold in the open market because it had not been allocated to a local company.
Local business officials and politicians fought for years to have the proceeds from the sale of unallocated power set aside for local development projects, but only recently succeeded through the formation of the power proceeds board. Monday's awards were the first that the panel has made.
The assemblymen were joined in opposition to the Launch NY funding by the Buffalo Niagara Partnership, the local business group that was a driving force in the effort to have the proceeds from the sale of unallocated hydropower set aside for economic development projects within the Buffalo Niagara region. They said the power proceeds funds is an especially powerful economic development tool because it is cash, rather than tax incentives or other subsidies that have a less immediate impact.
"We want to make sure the intent of the legislation is followed," said A.J. Wright, the Partnership's manager of government affairs. "The proceeds are supposed to be used to support economic development within 30 miles of the Niagara Power Project."
The assemblymen said the allocation to Launch NY ran contrary to the criteria for distributing the power proceeds funds in several respects. They said the funds are being used to support a business plan competition, which is contrary to the requirement that they be used to create jobs.
They said it was questionable whether the winners of the business plan competition would meet another requirement of the proceeds legislation that recipients have a long-term commitment to the region. The winner of the business plan competition will be required to locate their business in the region for one year.
The assemblymen also said the Launch NY program falls short on requirements that recipients of the power funding make capital investments in the region. They also noted that Launch NY is expected to provide support services and investment to companies in counties stretching from Buffalo to Syracuse and Binghamton, far beyond the 30-mile limitation on proceeds funding.

The Stetson sand volleyball team concluded its season on Sunday as freshman Kaylee Anderson and senior Kaley Melville competed in the AVCA Collegiate Pairs Championship. The Hatter duo fell in the first round of the single-elimination bracket to Florida State's Aurora Davis and Jace Pardon.
The championship bracket featured the top 16 pairs after the Best of the Rest competition and Team Championship on Friday and Saturday. Receiving the No. 15 seed, Anderson and Melville faced the No. 2 seed of Davis and Pardon. In the first set, the Stetson duo jumped to an early lead with a score of 4-3 during the first side change. However, Florida State responded with an ace from Davis, which gave the Seminoles a 6-5 lead. After that, Anderson and Melville were never able to regain the lead and dropped the first set 21-12.
"Mel and Kaylee started off strong against FSU," head coach Kristina Hernandez said. "They battled point for point. We just got stuck not siding out for a few string of points and it made it difficult to recover."
Despite a strong defensive effort, the second set had a similar result. Florida State's Davis and Pardon outlasted Anderson and Melville 21-9 to advance to the quarterfinals.
"They have matured a lot as a pair," Hernandez said about Anderson and Melville. "Both are returning next year, and they will be even stronger from the tough opponents they saw this weekend."
On Saturday, Stetson's Savannah Byl and Catherine Coston competed in a play-in match to qualify for the Pairs Championships. The duo played Long Beach State's top seed of Delaney Aigner-Swesey and Bojana Todorovic. Byl and Coston played a hard-fought match, but they ultimately fell 21-13, 21-10 to Aigner-Swesey and Todorovic.
"Cat and Savanah played well against LBSU," Hernandez said. "We started off strong but then had some unforced errors that made the gap hard to close. They kept fighting though. They have really progressed a lot since season begin, and I am excited to see how much they will get better coming into next season."
Stetson finished its season with a winning 18-6 record and an Atlantic Sun Conference Championship.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: For all my life, which now amounts to 63 years, I have had no serious illnesses. I still work. My job is a high-pressure one, but I enjoy it and plan to keep working for as long as I can. Something new has happened to me: ear noise. I have a constant roaring that intensifies at night when I'm in bed. My doctor told me I must learn to accept it. I try, but it's impossible. Have you anything more upbeat than my doctor? - B.K.
ANSWER: Your doctor is right in saying that there is no universal cure for tinnitus, but there are remedies that make the noise less of a nuisance.
People describe tinnitus as whistling, buzzing, chirping, hissing or pulsating constant noise whose intensity varies but never completely leaves. It's tough to deal with, but something can be done for almost all those plagued by it.
Tinnitus often appears when hearing starts to wane. People with normal hearing, when put into a soundproof room will, in a short time, start hearing ear noises. The reason is that the background noise of daily life has been eliminated. Background noise suppresses ear-generated noise. When hearing becomes impaired even slightly, the background noise is eliminated, and people develop tinnitus. A hearing aid restores normal hearing and eliminates tinnitus for many.
If a hearing aid isn't the answer, masking devices can dampen tinnitus. They're worn like hearing aids, and they emit a constant sound that blunts tinnitus. At night, when tinnitus always gets louder, turning on a bedside radio to soothing music quiets tinnitus. If that doesn't work, turn the dial to a position where static comes from the radio. That often makes tinnitus bearable.
Tinnitus retraining programs are scattered throughout North America. Instructors teach people how to desensitize their ears to tinnitus by listening to low levels of noise and habituating their ears to it. That suppresses tinnitus. It can take a long time to take hold, and it is expensive.
Contact the American Tinnitus Association, an organization dedicated to supporting tinnitus research and to keeping people abreast of the latest treatments. You'll find them online at www.ata.org. If you don't have a computer, ask a friend or relative to make the connection for you.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: On my father's death certificate, it says the cause of death was adenocarcinoma.
I know this is cancer, but I haven't heard of adenocarcinoma. Will you please explain? My dad died quite quickly. - R.J.
ANSWER: "Adeno" refers to glands. Carcinoma is cancer. Adenocarcinomas include cancers such as colon, lung, kidney, stomach, uterus, esophagus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, pancreas and gallbladder. It's a word that embraces many cancers but doesn't specify which one. If you want the precise type of cancer your dad had, call his doctor's office. Or it may be that the microscopic exam of the cancer cells was unable to identify the precise cancer type.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: What's your true blood pressure if the pressure in the right arm differs from that in the left? In my right arm, I get a reading of 135/90. In my left, it's 150/95. Which is my true pressure? - L.A.
ANSWER: When there's a difference in the pressure in the arms, the higher reading is taken as representing your true blood pressure.
A difference of 10 points between the two arms might be due to a narrowing of the arteries supplying the arm with the lower pressure.
A difference of 15 points often indicates peripheral artery disease, a partial plugging of arteries throughout the body. You should ask your doctor for an explanation. The higher reading calls for some kind of treatment - dietary (weight loss, sodium reduction, exercise) or maybe medicine.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My wife gives me a hard time about drinking Diet Coke. She says it's not good for me because of the carbonation and other ingredients. She says anything that cleans a toilet can't be good for your stomach. I am 72. I started drinking Diet Coke less than a year ago. I normally drink one a day. Do you feel this is harmful? - J.E.
ANSWER: Tell your wife that if she could obtain a cup of stomach acid and digestive juices and put a nail in the mix, it would dissolve the nail in short order. If the stomach can tolerate acid and digestive enzymes, it can tolerate Coke.
Diet Coke has no sugar. That's a big plus for it. It should not foster weight gain. That has been disputed, but I find that weight gain from drinking Diet Coke hard to believe. It's also been said that it increases strokes and heart attacks. Authors of that study maintain that there might be an association. They don't say it causes them. Another inscrutable suggestion. Readers, please don't write to me about aspartame, the artificial sweetener in these soft drinks. It's been found safe by many regulatory agencies throughout the world. I can't believe that a Diet Coke a day harms health.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I have been diagnosed with kyphoscoliosis. Will you enlighten me as to the cause and treatment, and prospects for the future? I am 86 years old. - L.K.
ANSWER: Kyphosis is an outward protrusion of the upper back. It's the kind of back that the hunchback of Notre Dame had. If it makes its appearance in younger years, it's often a deformity the person is born with. In older years, it frequently results from osteoporosis with collapse of the backbones. Is also called a dowager's hump.
Scoliosis is a bend of the back to the right or the left. If the upper back bends to the right, the lower back might curve to the left, or vice versa. Scoliosis often is a congenital problem. What to do for it depends on the degree of curvature. A brace is sometimes used. For more severe curvatures, surgery has to be performed. At older ages, osteoporosis can be the factor that's causing the curvature.
If you do have osteoporosis, you should be on treatment with calcium and vitamin D. Your doctor will judge whether other medicines are indicated. Your back curvatures are not likely to increase much more at your age unless you have severe osteoporosis.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Send information on how much blackstrap molasses to take for hemorrhoids. I don't like its taste, so the smallest effective amount is what I'm looking for. - R.O.
ANSWER: You've gotten me mixed up with someone else. I haven't written about blackstrap molasses being effective for hemorrhoids. In fact, I don't know that it is.
- Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Readers may also order health newsletters from www.rbmamall.com.

WAILUKU - The parking area between Iao Theater and Maui Sporting Goods is being proposed for a makeover that has some businesses in the area a little uneasy.
The Maui Redevelopment Agency that reviews renovation projects in the Wailuku area has proposed paving a parking lot and creating a plaza area with trees and a bench at an undeveloped site on the Happy Valley side of the Iao Theater.
"It'll be functional, safe and quite a bit more attractive," said agency board member Bill Mitchell about plans for the Iao Square Project. "The way people are parking now is not code-compliant."
Article Photos
Small-business owners in the area surrounding the Iao Square Project are concerned with the prospects of losing parking in the already parking-challenged town of Wailuku.

The plans for the Iao Square Project, which was proposed by the Maui Redevelopment Agency, call on paving the uneven, gravel parking lot and constructing a small plaza in the area.
The Maui News / CHRIS SUGIDONO photo
The project proposes to divide the area in a portion on a block bordered by Market and Vineyard streets into two parts: an approximately 160-square-foot plaza and 625-square-foot parking lot.
The agency, an advisory board to the mayor's administration and the County Council, estimated the cost to build the plaza at $180,000 and the parking lot at $75,000. The project is expected to take about eight weeks to complete.
Some of the businesses in the parking-challenged Wailuku town area are concerned about the project.
Richard Dan, who owns several properties and stores along North Market Street including Cash for Gold, is worried that the reconfigured parking lot means a loss of parking stalls.
The currently unstriped, gravel parking lot area can pack in anywhere from 20 to 25 cars, he said. An additional seven stalls outside of the proposed parking area will be eliminated for the creation of a driveway from Vineyard Street in the new configuration.
Although the proposed paved parking area will have a total of 24 parking stalls, Dan estimates that about a half-dozen parking spots will be lost when the driveway area is included.
"We're gonna lose parking, there's no two ways about it," he said. "You can't take 10 pounds of rice and put it into a 5-pound bag. . . . Everybody agrees we need more parking."
Mitchell disagrees with Dan's contention that parking stalls will be lost. He says the county does not perceive the area as a recognized parking lot; it's just a vacant lot.
Other opponents of the parking plan blame the proposed Iao Square plaza as the reason for the loss of parking stalls. The plaza lies between the Police Resource Center and the theater and the new paved parking lot.
The agency, which is appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the County Council, did not view this plaza space as viable for parking due to its uneven terrain.
Erin Wade, the Small Town County planner assigned to the agency, said the plaza area plans call for having a bench and decorative plants, including three to four canopy trees. Maui Botanical Gardens has voluntarily tended to the plants on the sidewalk along Market Street for more than two years, and Wade hopes it will maintain the proposed plant life in the plaza.
Mitchell said the space also was designed to be flexible for multiple uses and could potentially provide a spot for food vendors, for example.
"It'll definitely be a plus for Market Street and First Friday," said Mitchell. "It'll be a space for multi-functional uses."
Despite his disagreements with the agency over the parking area, Dan said he agrees with Mitchell about the safety issues in the area. He said many people, including his wife, have slipped in the sloping parking lot due to the uneven gravel surface.
"The lot itself is dangerous, period," he said. "My wife last year took a face-first fall and had two black eyes from it. People walk through it, and they fall frequently. They gotta asphalt it."
Plans for the plaza and parking area address this safety concern with the installation of a 3 1/2-foot railing dividing the two areas so that patrons can see the physical drop, Wade said.
Dan also had concerns about the plaza area potentially obstructing sight lines from the Market Street sidewalk into the parking lot. Some of his female employees end their shifts late at night, and he will sometimes have a male escort them to their car, he said.
Wade said safety was a major concern in the project plan. The parking lot will have three light fixtures and motion detector lights in darker areas. She also said the trees will not obstruct sidewalk views because the lowest branches will hang no lower than 6 feet above the ground.
Project planners and the area business owners would like the "underutilized" Police Resource Center to be improved to the point where an officer could be stationed in there in the future, Wade said. The Maui Police Department is looking into the costs associated with the needed renovations.
Plans for project, which was engineered by Otomo Engineering, are in the hands of the mayor's administration and the County Council.
Wade said that the agency had hoped to have the project included in this year's administration budget but that didn't appear to be the case.
The chances of the project being included in next year's administrative budget and approved by the County Council are "pretty good," she said.

About 3,200 gallons of oil were spilled as the result of a collision on U.S. 85 north of Fort Lupton.
A hazmat crew spent more than five hours Friday night cleaning up the southbound lanes of U.S. 85 near Weld County Road 14 ½, according to a news release from the Colorado Department of Transportation.
Fort Lupton Police Chief Kenneth Poncelow said two semitrucks collided at the intersection about 3:45 p.m. Friday when a semitruck traveling north on U.S. 85 attempted to turn west onto County Road 14 ½. He said a tanker truck from a local fuel distribution center traveling south on U.S. 85 collided with the truck.
No one was injured in the crash, Poncelow said, but about 3,200 gallons of oil spilled from the tanker truck.

"I think that we couldn't be more different," Brad Paisley tells PEOPLE of his fellow panelist – and new friend – Ludacris. "But we're thick as thieves. It's one of the fastest friendships I've ever made."
Not even losing an expensive bet could deter Paisley from singing the praises of his new pal.
"He's such a big star, a great actor and one of the most important and influential rappers of all time. He has earned the right to be sort of difficult, but he is so warm and brilliant," says the busy star, whose new album Moonshine in the Trunk will be available Aug. 25.
Rounding out Paisley and Ludacris's friendship is the third member of their Rising Star panel, Kesha.
"You'd imagine her to be foul-mouthed and hard-edged, but she's extremely sweet and kind," Paisley says of the singer. "I mean, she certainly can cuss a sailor under the table if she wants, but usually it is out of humor."
And don't think their friendship is just for the cameras, either.
"We will frequently get together after an entire day of working," Paisley says about Kesha and Ludacris, who made an impromptu decision to join the country singer at the Los Angeles premiere of Disney's Planes: Fire and Rescue on July 15. "We mentored all day and then they hopped in a limo with me and we walked the carpet together, just because we are buddies. Who would have thought?"
Rising Star airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.

Kroger customers and associates have raised more than $7,300 for victims of Hurricane Sandy.
The total from the stores in the Mid-Atlantic region "reflects the spirit of giving that characterizes our customers," said Allison McGee, a spokesperson for The Kroger Co. "Many of our customers and associates have experienced losses in natural disasters, and we know how much financial support means in recoveries from property damage."
The money was sent to the American Red Cross disaster fund.
Kroger conducted a special campaign in its stores between Nov. 2 and 17, following the disastrous storm. Kroger placed coin boxes in all checkout lanes to make it easy for customers to donate.
Kroger operates 123 stores in West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina and the eastern portions of Tennessee, Kentucky, and Ohio from its Mid-Atlantic headquarters in Roanoke, Va.

Handles are the Best
By anymacha

Ok I have broken lots of plastic flea combs and love the metal teeth very easy to clean. The grip is fat and cushioned for those with arthritis...I bought the small one since I have cats to do - I have all indoor cats and they got fleas this yr and this works great with daily combing!
Best Flea Comb Ever

This flea comb is built so as to encourage its proper use (which I had not realized before when using other flea combs). It is sturdy and will probably last a long time. My dog enjoys being combed with it.

I think I found out what the problem is with this football season.
Our guys just aren't as good as their guys.
Teams go through these up and down periods.
Last night I saw the Berkeley Stags football team get manhandled by the Hanahan Hawks, 36-0. I haven't seen a whitewashing like that since Tom Sawyer.
It wasn't bad coaching, or bad players, they were just a better team. It's their time. As for the Stags, well, it's neither their time yet nor their turn.
Berkeley last went to the well in 2009 and had a team stocked with the likes of Bruce Ellington, R.J. Robinson, Rahkeem White, Evan McKelvey and a host of others. They were a deep team.
I could have coached those guys to at least the state title game, and I'm not knocking Coach Brown.
What did longtime NBA player and coach Doug Collins say about coaching Michael Jordan?
"You give the ball to Michael and tell the other four guys to get out of the way."
Well, that's how you coach the likes of Bruce Ellington. Just give the ball to Bruce and tell everyone else to get out of the way.
The good part about that 2009 team was that they had a second player you could say almost the same thing about in R.J. Robinson.
Built like Hercules he was a man playing against boys.
Standing on the sidelines I saw opposing players say, "Uh-uh, I'm not tackling that guy, you tackle that guy."
People forget a lot of luck went into the Stags winning that title. Ask anybody in Goose Creek whether R.J. was down before he pitched the ball to Rahkeem White and you'll hear their unified reply clear to Moncks Corner - "YES!"
People have forgotten just how good Bruce was. He averaged four touchdowns a Friday. Andre didn't even do that and he's in the NFL.
Someone called Sparky Anderson a great manager when looking at his tenure at the helm of the Big Red Machine in the 1970s.
Anderson's reply said something to the effect that anybody could win with a daily lineup of Pete Rose, Joe Morgan, Johnny Bench, Tony Perez, George Foster, Ken Griffey, Davey Concepcion and Cesar Geronimo.
Give Pete, Johnny and Joe the lineup card and try to stay out of the way.
The Stags went 13 years between state championships. It could take Berkeley 13 more years before they get another trip.
Guys like Bruce, R.J. and Rahkeem only come around once in a generation.
It took Timberland five years to get back to a state championship game they lost in heartbreaking fashion back in 2006. It was their time in 2011. They haven't been back since.
Cross won it all last year, but ask Shaun Wright about how it's going this year and he'll give you a sigh and a shake of the head first before he replies.
Some of you Stags fans are a rough crowd, an impatient lot.
No one hates losing more than I do. I carry a pen and notepad these days because I hate losing.
But you guys need to exercise some patience. It's coming.
Having a Bruce, or an Andre or a Rusty in your backfield helps a lot. Not having one though, is more the norm than the exception.
I know I'll get raked over the coals for this one, but that's okay.
Bring it on. Be a fan, the kind that's with a team, win or lose, rather than win or tie.

Since 1981 the china children and teenagers fund, cctf, has helped with the education and welfare of children in china, especially those in rural and ethnic minority areas. Gucci was delighted to support the good work of cctf with a donation made in the year of the chinese olympics. The gucci contribution was specifically to help children suffering from amblyopia, a serious eye disease which results in poor binocular and stereoscopic vision and can lead to blindness.
The radiant children's eye hospital in beijing uses laser treatment to
cure amblyopia, with over 40,000 cases already successfully treated.
Gucci is proud to help support this work and delighted to have been

LOCKPORT – A Lewiston man who was the sole caregiver of his elderly mother admitted in Niagara County Court Friday that he failed to care for her, allowing her to remain in bed in her own feces and urine, causing bedsores and infections.
Harold C. Shaver Jr., 53, of Oneida Street pleaded guilty before Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas to second-degree endangering the welfare of a vulnerable and elderly person. Shaver could receive up to four years in prison when sentenced Jan. 11.
Shaver told the court he had lived off his mother, without a job, over the past 21 years. He blamed his mother for her problems, telling the judge she did not want help and refused to go to the hospital.
"What kind of a man does that to his mother?" Farkas said.

yeah a few key injuries and you're the worst team in the league
Kind of like when Lids and Helm went down last year? Or Yzerman and Shanahan in 2001? We got smoked by teams we can easily beat due to injury. Did we fail to keep signing good players and pushing for cups because of potential injuries? Nope. Loaded up in 2002. This year, we are loading up on garbage.

5 Actors Who Do the Exact Same Thing in Every Movie
Everyone assumes that directors and writers decide what happens in a movie, but many times the movie star is the most powerful person involved with the project. For instance, when Jim Carrey wanted to make a movie about his favorite number, The Number 23 hit theaters across the country. A much more entertaining abuse of this star power occurs when huge movie stars decide they look awesome doing something, and proceed to force that something into every movie they make. For instance ...
#5. Tom Hanks' Career is a Urinary Morality Play
Most movie stars use their careers to build up enough credibility to avoid urinating onscreen. Adam Sandler and Ben Stiller each had a couple piss gags early on, and then they got successful. It's just not a bodily process we're built to share with millions of people. Hell, some people can't go if there's a single person in the same bathroom as them. That's why it's so strange that Tom Hanks has used his impressive career to make us watch him pee.
Perhaps it's our fault for encouraging him. Everyone loved his first scene in A League of Their Own, when he busts into the locker room and takes World War II's manliest piss.
And there's the even more iconic scene in Forrest Gump where he gets to share the screen with the most beloved president in modern history, and uses the opportunity to tell him he has to pee (at which point Kennedy turns to the camera and repeats what he's been told re: Tom Hanks' having to go pee) ...
"Alright guys, we've got enough money in the effects budget to make President Kennedy say one thing. Any ideas?"
If it were just these two iconic moments, it would be easy to dismiss this as a mere weakness for the poop joke's more penis-y cousin. But Gump wasn't the first Hanks character to pull the "'I've gotta pee.' --sneaks off to explore secret house" gambit. In The 'Burbs, Hanks uses the same excuse to investigate the home of his creepy neighbors.
How Tom Hanks lets a room full of adults know that he has to pee.
And in the art-house movie Road to Perdition, he uses his overactive bladder as a spidey-sense when he escapes a hit man by excusing himself to take a whiz.
OK, this is still The 'Burbs. The footage of Hanks grabbing his penis in Road to Perdition wasn't nearly as funny.
When Tom Hanks is actually urinating onscreen, you can be sure that something thematically significant is taking place. In A League of Their Own, it establishes his character's central conflict as a man who refuses to accept people without penises into the locker room. In another early comedy, The Money Pit, his literal pissing contest with a statue is the central symbol of his character's journey.
At the start of the film, Hanks and his wife optimistically buy an old house, and set about pragmatically dealing with its problems. For instance, when the toilet's plumbing doesn't work, Hanks merely goes outside to pee.
When he notices the plumbing is giving the statue in the front yard a fitful stream, he wryly asks if it's having prostate problems while his manly stream continues to flow freely. Here is a man with a world-beating attitude letting the world know in the only way Tom Hanks knows how: peeing on it.
Later in the movie, the house makes Hanks pay for his arrogance by ruining his marriage. Or, translated into Tom Hanks pee stream logic: The pisser becomes the peed on.
This is not the only Hanks vs. a hostile environment movie that uses urine to let us know the score. Early in Apollo 13, man's mastery over space is demonstrated by showing Tom Hanks pee on it.
"So I pee into a tube?
Then I press a button labeled urine dump ...
... and then my urine is sprayed all over outer space just as you'd expect based on how airplanes work? Fascinating! We need to show every step of that process in painstaking detail!"
-- Absolutely nobody except Tom Hanks
Castaway devotes an entire scene to answering another question nobody on the outside of Tom Hanks' head was asking: If you were trapped on a desert island, where would you pee?
"Imagine that! Being able to just pee right in the ocean!"
There are also meaningful pee scenes in Saving Private Ryan (while the other soldiers talk about missing their mothers, Hanks reminisces about a kid who used to piss Vs on everyone's jackets) and The Terminal (his character must wait for an important phone call despite having to pee, like, super bad). But Hanks' crowning achievement has to be The Green Mile.
In 1999, Tom Hanks was arguably as big as any movie star had ever been. He was coming off of Oscar-wins for Philadelphia and Forrest Gump, plus Apollo 13 (nominated for nine Oscars) and Saving Private Ryan (nominated again for Best Actor). Following in the footsteps of great actors like Daniel Day Lewis, Hanks chose a character with a crippling physical affliction for his next role in an Oscar contender. Unlike any character other than Beavis and Butthead in that episode where they forgot how to pee, that physical affliction was painful urination.
Well there's your problem right there.
Tom Hanks used the credibility he built up over one of the most successful acting careers of the past 50 years to play a character whose central conflict was that he couldn't pee in a standing position. And while I can forgive him for the scene where Michael Clarke Duncan heals him by grabbing his penis, I will never be able to look at him the same way following the uncomfortable close-up as he has what can only be described as an extremely slow orgasm while peeing.
Tom Hanks' career, peaking with a peegasm.
#4. Tom Cruise Will Find an Excuse to Make You Watch Him Sprint
Sprinting is one of those random activities that seems to give actors more trouble than you'd expect (along with throwing a baseball, high-fives and anything within a 12-foot radius of a basketball). They make smoking and dancing look cool, but ask an actor to sprint and they suddenly look like their extremities all fell asleep at the same time ...
Look how hard Steven Seagal has to concentrate to run like a girl in the midst of a devastating growth spurt.
Now, Tom Cruise throws a baseball like he's doing it with his off-hand.
But unlike most actors, Tom Cruise is a fantastic sprinter, presumably because that's the only way he knows how to move from place to place.
This is also how Tom Cruise gets from his bed to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
And nobody has known a fact any harder than Tom Cruise knows that he looks good sprinting. As this video montage demonstrates, he has spent bizarrely extended portions of his career running away from giant alien spacecraft ...
Tom Cruise runs approximately eight miles in this scene.
... Chinese chimney sweeps ...
... or just sprinting out of some bushes somewhere.
Tom Cruise just chased down a deer and killed it with his bare hands. Why, how'd you get to the hospital?
And once Cruise starts sprinting, it's difficult for even great directors to get him to stop. If you saw Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol, you might remember the footrace in a Dubai dust storm that took about 15 seconds too long to turn into a car chase. Or maybe you remember the chase at the end of Collateral, when Michael Mann seemingly forgot how editing works in order to let us drink in every explosive footstep.
This is how you film the 400-meter dash, not the movies.
In Mission: Impossible III, J.J. Abrams completely stops the movie so that Tom Cruise can spend what seems like an hour sprinting through Shanghai, telling Chinese people to get out of his way.
He takes a phone call without losing a step.
There's a hairy moment where it appears as though he might completely lose his mind if these people don't get out of his way.
But otherwise, it's just this: 10-second-long tracking shots of Tom Cruise sprinting like a goddamn lunatic.
The scene ends when the camera keeps traveling in a straight line, and Cruise sprints off in a different direction. I have to assume they keep a team of handlers just off camera with a big net for when he gets going like that.
Occasionally the movie fails to even produce a good reason for him to start sprinting in the first place. Toward the end of Jerry Maguire, he sprints through a mostly empty airport. He's not trying to catch a flight or anything, but it's almost the end of the movie, and Tom Cruise hasn't sprinted yet, so ...
"Oh look, a crazy person." -- Everyone in the quiet airport some maniac is sprinting through.
The very first scene of Vanilla Sky was nicknamed the "million dollar shot" because it required director Cameron Crowe to shut down New York's Times Square during daylight hours. At the production meeting before the shoot, the crew was surprised when Cruise showed up to "let everyone know how crucial this scene was," (It's actually just a dream that he wakes up from few seconds later in the movie, but you know ... important to him). In the scene, Cruise finds himself driving a high-performance sports car through the abandoned post-apocalyptic urban landscape that car commercials have been promising us for years. Instead of using the opportunity to do donuts on the world's busiest intersection, he gets out and ... well, you can probably guess what happens next.
Like a young Dalmatian, you need to give Tom Cruise lots of room to run.
#3. Steven Seagal IS ... Clearly Titling All of His Movies
Stephen Seagal doesn't have any performance quirks that he forces on directors, which isn't surprising, since he seems only vaguely aware he's in a movie at any given moment on screen. Instead, Seagal wields his power in the titling department, making sure that all of his movies have names that sound awesome when preceded by the phrase "Steven Seagal IS ..."
If you don't pay entirely too much attention to action movies, you might not realize how rare this is. Arnold Schwarzenegger probably has the second most impressive run, when Arnold Schwarzenegger WAS ... Commando, The Terminator, Kindergarten Cop and The Last Action Hero. But saying someone IS ... Jingle All the Way, Raw Deal or Total Recall only makes it sound like you should be speaking with a thick Russian accent.
Nobody else is out there forcing his name onto the front of movie titles as consistently and with the same level of difficulty as Seagal. At their best, Stallone and Schwarzenegger titles only answer the "who" of ass-kicking (Stallone is Cobra, Rocky and John Rambo). Seagal considers this redundant, since his facial expression has already made it perfectly clear who's about to make you all the wrong kinds of pointy, which is why he skips directly to the oft-overlooked "where" of ass-kicking.
Where is Steven Seagal, you ask? [Ahem.]
Steven Seagal
"Up here, tough guy."
"Whoops, now I'm down here."
"And POOF! Now I'm out here, getting ready to make Lady Justice thank God she's wearing that blindfold."
There were even a couple Bond-worthy titles that answered the "why" of ass-kicking.
Q: Why did Steven Seagal just kill everything with dreadlocks?
A: Oh shit, you didn't hear? A Rastafarian gang painted blood on his door, and ...
Q: Right, but why did he have that creepy look on his face the whole time?
A: Guy loves to kill people. And I mean loves, if you catch my drift. Yes, I guess you could say ...
Hard, like boner-wise, you see.
And then, just as quickly as he'd burst onto the scene with a poker hand's worth of awesome "Steven Seagal IS..." movie titles, he lost his touch. It wasn't for a lack of trying. In fact, the many "Steven Seagal IS ..." titles he's come up with since then only prove how hard he nailed the first five. But no matter how hard he tries, he's found himself answering the "where" of ass-kicking with ridiculous bullshit like ... [Dry cough]
Steven Seagal is ...
"Up here, like a book on the top shelf that you need a footstool to get to."
"OK, I was using a Thesaurus on that one. No need to reinvent the wheel here. Just go with what works. Steven Seagal IS ..."
"Boom. He's out here. Out for a Ki-- goddamnit, that's not even a phrase, is it? I'm too inside my own head. I get too close to it and it's just like word salad, y'know? Hey, maybe we're asking the wrong question. Maybe the question we should be asking is -- ready? -- "when" is Steven Seagal? Like if you asked someone for the time, and they looked at their watch, and -- WHAAAT? --- their watch is Steven Seagal, and he's super mad. Then you might say that Steven Seagal IS ..."
Half Past Dead was Seagal's last starring role to get a wide theatrical release, and I'm almost positive that it only exists to justify what he thought was an awesome title that would put him back on top. Seagal plays a cop named Sasha who comes back from the dead at the beginning of the film. This seemingly important bit of back story is only referenced in the title and the following piece of dialogue:
You can tell he's desperate because that is the only line that Steven Seagal has ever delivered with an exclamation point. But if you think his subsequent straight-to-DVD irrelevance has taught him a lesson, you must be forgetting that Steven Seagal IS ...
A crazy person.
