Although fashions in medical care change more slowly than do those in feminine apparel, the movements are subject to some of the same pressures. Physicians, because of their own background and professional bias, may resent changes in diagnostic groupings and, therefore, adopt new diagnostic ideas reluctantly. Parents at times exert pressures to suit their own needs. They are particularly prone to urge diagnoses and embrace concepts that remove them as individuals from responsibility for a child's behavior. Their desire for the health of their child at times leads to overly optimistic hopes of nature's repair. This is particularly true in the field of behavior pathology. Here the concept of change-through-growth without medical treatment becomes especially manifest.
In recent years, along with other medical "splinter" groups, there has been the rise of a concept concerned with "brain damage" or "the neurologically handicapped child." This interest has been pushed at us by

'Gem,' 'Anna,' others looking toward B'way
One never knows. Last season, "Radiant Baby" at the Public had the backing of David Geffen and DreamWorks, making it a sure bet for a Broadway transfer.
Then came the reviews, which threw out the "Baby" with the bath water.
More recently, Doug Wright's one-person "I Am My Own Wife" previewed at Playwrights Horizons with little fanfare (and no commercial producers attached), scored surprising raves, and looks to open on Broadway this fall under the auspices of David Richenthal, the man who gave us the recent "Long Day's Journey Into Night."
Herewith are 15 projects, all ready to go in the next 12 months at regional theaters and Gotham's nonprofit venues. Commercial producers have their eye on some, their hands and money in others.
Which of them will the Broadway gods bless or curse?
Gem of the Ocean
August Wilson continues his 20th-century cycle of plays with "Gem of the Ocean," set in 1904. Broadway seems a foregone conclusion, with the playwright's longtime producer Benjamin Mordecai onboard. After its world preem this spring at the Goodman, "Gem" currently finishes its run at the Mark Taper Forum, with another stop expected before coming to Gotham.
Camille Claudel
Frank Wildhorn and Nan Knighton's new musical "Camille Claudel," starring Linda Eder, wraps up its run at Goodspeed this month. Clear Channel has the option to move to Broadway, and if Jackie Mason's "Laughing Room Only" sputters this fall, there's talk of "CC" moving right into the Brooks Atkinson.
Shakespeare in Hollywood
Ken Ludwig's adaptation of the vintage comedy "Twentieth Century" travels from the Signature Theater this summer to the Roundabout this winter, with Alec Baldwin starring in the latter production on Broadway.
Sometimes these things happen in pairs. So why not Ludwig's all-new, all-original "Shakespeare in Hollywood," which plumbs the same 1930s showbiz milieu? Rather than a train, this one is set on the soundstage of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" as Groucho Marx and Johnny Weissmuller run through the commissary at Warner Bros. Edward Quinton and Alice Ripley, on a quick rebound from her "Little Shop of Horrors" dismissal, headline at Washington's Arena Stage, beginning Sept. 5.
Anna in the Tropics
Producers Roger Berlind and Daryl Roth are circling Nilo Cruz's "Anna in the Tropics," which will start perfs Sept. 9 at the McCarter Theater's new Roger Berlind Theater. Jimmy Smits and Daphne Rubin-Vega headline the story of a lector who reads "Anna Karenina" to entertain workers in a Cuban-American cigar factory circa 1929. Surprise winner of this year's Pulitzer Prize for drama, "Anna" needs the right reviews at McCarter for an immediate transfer to Broadway. Emily Mann directs.
The Long Christmas Ride Home
They did it with her "How I Learned to Drive." Producers Daryl Roth and Roy Gabay could also take the gamble to transfer Paula Vogel's "The Long Christmas Ride Home" into a commercial venue. With previews beginning Oct. 9 at the Vineyard, the playwright's new one looks at what happens when a family car spins out of control after a disastrous Christmas dinner, hurtling the three siblings into the future where they confront the legacies of their childhood. The production features puppets by Basil Twist. Mark Brokaw directs.
Caroline, or Change
Last season, producers Carole Shorenstein Hays and Frederick De Mann moved the Public's production of "Take Me Out" to Broadway. Now they've got their eye (and enhancement money) on "Caroline, or Change" by Tony Kushner ("Angels in America") and Jeanine Tesori ("Thoroughly Modern Millie").
In recent seasons, Gotham critics have preferred sendup musicals ("Urinetown," "Hairspray!," "Avenue Q") to more serious-toned fare ("A Man of No Importance," "My Life With Albertine"). "Caroline" belongs squarely in the latter category, what with its story of a black maid's relationship to her young white charge, all of which transpires on the eve of the JFK assassination. Then again, it may be time for a critical change. George C. Wolfe directs. Previews will begin Oct. 21 at the Public.
The long-gestating Stephen Sondheim-John Weidman musical about the Mizner brothers hit a pothole in August when the Al Hirschfeld went to the upcoming "Wonderful Town" revival. That minor distraction aside, the Kennedy Center stages the tuner, following an incarnation at the Goodman this summer. With the ubiquitous Roger Berlind attached, the Gotham preem depends on what fall Broadway musicals prematurely bite the dust to free up theaters. And, of course, there are those D.C. reviews. Previews will begin there Oct. 21.
Rose's Dilemma
Mary Tyler Moore, Neil Simon, Lynn Meadow — that combo ought to take this play a clef, based on the relationship of Lillian Hellman and Dashiell Hammett, to the big time. Meadow helmed MTC's last commercial transfer, "The Tale of the Allergist's Wife," in November 2001.
Untitled New Musical
Which is about as exciting as the letters "TBA." But in the tuner universe, the names Cy Coleman and Larry Gelbart deliver the requisite excitement under any circumstance. Their new one, with lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman, takes on the genesis and evolution of jazz. Best of all, they've delivered 16 original songs. "UNM" will go up Nov. 21 at L.A.'s Mark Taper Forum, with Gordon Davidson at the helm.
The Light in the Piazza
After a successful run this summer at Seattle's Intiman Theater, Adam Guettel and Craig Lucas give their new tuner "The Light in the Piazza" an even fuller staging at Chi's Goodman Theater, where it will begin perfs Jan. 10. Watch this "Light" grow into a Broadway production for 2004-05.
Roger Berlind and Daryl Roth have their sights on the Second Stage revival of Craig Lucas' "Reckless," starring Mary-Louise Parker. In this Yuletide fable, a mother of two goes on a bizarre odyssey as she hop-skips from Christmas to Christmas. In 1988, Circle Rep staged "Reckless," which was a revision of the play Lucas delivered Off Off Broadway five years earlier. The newest staging goes up in the spring, maybe later. A Broadway opening looks more likely than a preliminary run at Second Stage's Off Broadway space.
Senor Discretion Himself
Culture Clash polishes off an unfinished musical by Frank Loesser. The legendary composer's widow, Jo Loesser, remains bullish yet protective of the project, entrusting it to director Charles Randolph-Wright, who helmed her personal favorite production of "Guys and Dolls" at Arena Stage a few years back. Based on a short story by Budd Schulberg, "Senor" follows a colorful stranger into a sleepy Mexican hamlet. Miracles happen. The world-preem production will begin previews April 9.
Chinese Friends
Jon Robin Baitz almost made it to Broadway with his "Ten Unknowns." Then Donald Sutherland dropped out. In spring, Playwrights Horizons will present the world preem of his latest, "Chinese Friends," a thriller about a young man who tracks down his long-estranged father, a politico in exile. Robert Egan directs.
If it transfers to Broadway, Baitz's other new one, "The Paris Letter," might beat it there. After a reading at Huntington Stage, commercial producers are already circling the project. Jonathan Kent is onboard to direct.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
It's almost the same creative team that brought us "The Full Monty": composer-lyricist David Yazbek, director Jack O'Brien and choreographer Jerry Mitchell. New guy is veteran TV writer Jeffrey Lane ("Mad About You," "Lou Grant"), who makes his debut as book writer, retelling for the stage the 1998 Steve Martin-Michael Caine starrer about two con artists fleecing rich widows on the French Riviera. Also different from "Monty" are the commercial producers attached, David Brown and Marty Bell, who last collaborated on "Sweet Smell of Success." They have a deal with MGM. "Scoundrels" looks to preem at San Diego's Old Globe in September 2004.

Or we could save our energy and find untapped sources of content created by our local users and work together to create a single publishing platform and rights-management tool to allow easy creation and access to local content.
That's the excellent ending of Kathryn Greenhill's answer to her own question: How do we force publishers to give us ebook content that includes works that our users want and that they find easy to download to their chosen device?
This is such a compelling vision of a way forward for libraries. Not only is it more attainable than forcing publishers to do anything (or even compelling them) but it would result in a much more meaningful public library.
I'm looking forward to the rest of the posts in her series!

Expectant mothers are virtual magnets for unsolicited advice. Mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, sisters-in-law, new mothers, friends, and even strangers offer what seems to be an endless supply of supposedly authoritative opinions on every aspect of pregnancy: A craving for spicy food denotes a boy. Carrying the baby low denotes a girl.
Besides gender predictions, a pregnant woman is also apt to acquire an earful of advice about miscarriage, dietary habits and cravings, hair growth, weight gain, and childbirth. And, of course, everyone wants to touch her belly.
Try your hand at this quiz of myths that every woman -- pregnant or not -- knows she's influenced by at some level. It's great fun finding which one's are yours. See how well you do at separating truth from fiction!
Please circle the correct answer, where T = True and F = False
T F1. Pregnant women should never eat fish.
T F2. Induced labor is more painful than natural labor.
T F3. A woman can't get pregnant if she has sex during her period.
T F4. Spicy foods will bring on labor.
T F5. Certain sexual positions are better than others for conceiving.
T F6. A woman who miscarries did something wrong.
T F7. The manner in which the pregnant mother "carries" the baby gives a clue as to the baby's gender.
T F8. If the baby tightens up in the mother's stomach, she's having a boy.
T F9. If the fetal heart rate is below 140 beats per minute, it's a boy. If it's above 140, it's a girl.
T F10. A pregnant woman needs to abstain from sex to protect the baby.
T F11. Increased cell phone use can hurt an unborn baby.
T F12. Babies delivered on Friday will have depression.
T F13. Birth defects are caused mainly by environmental toxins.
T F14. Breastfeeding will help with delivery of the placenta.
T F15. Food cravings mean indicate a nutritional deficiency.
T F16. The majority of multiple births come from infertility treatments.
T F17. If a woman goes into preterm labor, treatments will stop it.
T F18. A common vaginal infection can cause preterm labor.
1. FALSE Eat fish in moderation, but avoid those types that have very high levels of mercury including grouper, marlin, orange roughy, tilefish, swordfish, shark, and king mackerel.
2. FALSE It hasn't been proven that Pitocin, the drug used intravenously to induce labor, affects the uterus in a different manner than natural labor. Pitocin itself does not cause pain; it increases the frequency and power of contractions, thereby increasing discomfort.
3. FALSE Theoretically speaking, a woman can't get pregnant during her period because no egg is hanging around waiting to meet a sperm. But never say never, because in rare instances, having sex during menstruation may result in pregnancy.
4. FALSE To the best of our knowledge, no evidence or research shows that cayenne pepper, red pepper, or jalapeno peppers cause uterine contractions.
5. TRUE Well, possibly. It may help to avoid positions where gravity is not working in your favor, such as the "woman-on-top" positions, since the semen is more likely to flow away from the cervix.
6. FALSE No woman should blame herself for a miscarriage. The number one reason for miscarriage is a genetic mistake that occurs when egg and sperm meet. It is nature's stopgap.
7. FALSE There is no truth to this myth. How a woman carries a baby has to do with physical attributes of mother and fetus., not gender.
8. FALSE The "balling up" of the stomach is actually a uterine contraction and is not influenced by the sex of the baby.
9. FALSE Studies show no significant difference between a male and a female fetal heart rate.
10. FALSE ... unless the following conditions are evident: placenta previa, in which the placenta develops in front of the cervix; preterm labor; bleeding; or an incompetent (weakened) cervix.
11. FALSE Currently, the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention has found no link between cell phone use and problems with pregnancies, but the question remains whether or not the child will have developmental issues after birth. For now, we feel it a good precaution to decrease a pregnant woman's belly exposure to cell phones. This means setting the phone away from her and using a speaker option if possible or a wireless ear apparatus like a Bluetooth headset.
12. FALSE Biologically and scientifically speaking, no relationship exists between the day of the week and the personality of the infant.
13. FALSE Without a doubt, certain environmental toxins can cause a plethora of birth defects, but many birth defects are considered multifactorial, meaning that multiple causes contributed to the process rather than one specific cause.
14. TRUE When a baby breastfeeds, the mother's body releases oxytocin, which causes uterine contractions, which help expel the uterus.
15. FALSE (with an exception) Cravings have been studied at length, but no definite understanding of them exists. If a pregnant woman craves healthy foods, give in to the craving; if she craves junk food or fast food, find a healthy, equally satisfying substitute. The exception: if she starts craving odd things like chalk or tires or paint, she should consult a healthcare provider, because the craving could signify an underlying issue like anemia.
16. FALSE Although multiple births do have a high occurrence where fertility drugs have been used, the majority of twins and other multiples occur naturally.
17. FALSE There is no medication on the market today that has been to shown to completely stop preterm labor.
18. TRUE A number of vaginal infections can instigate preterm labor and contraction.

Overachievers won't relate. But for the rest of us, here's a genial exploration of defeat in its many guises.
This slender volume's inhabitants are not unmotivated slackers. These folks aimed high and fell hard. Young finalists in the National Spelling Bee, mowed down by words like "pemphigoid" and "cispontine"; vanquished inventors of perpetual-motion machines; a comic troupe member who but for a "tiny fulcrum of circumstance" could have ended up a TV star instead of a professional mud eater.
Some, like René Fonck, literally couldn't get off the ground. The French aviator might have beaten Charles Lindbergh across the Atlantic had he not dispensed with annoying aircraft stress tests and overloaded his plane with a celebratory dinner for six, to be eaten in Paris.
Steinberg, a reporter for the Chicago Sun-Times, invests his tales of bad timing, unfortunate decisions and tumbles into obscurity with such buoyant cheer, it's enough to give failure a good name. And while his biographical asides slow things down, he never completely loses his wonderment at "the thorny, tangled nature of failure, the way it can uplift while it destroys...the siren beauty of ruin." So, Neil, here's hoping you don't make any best-seller lists. (Doubleday, $17.50)

A 19-year-old college student is recovering from a gunshot wound suffered during an attempted robbery in a parking lot near a campus apartment complex in Council Bluffs.
No arrests have been reported since the crime Saturday afternoon near Reiver Village on the east side of Iowa Western Community College.
The Council Bluffs Police Department says the wounded student told officers that he and another student went to the lot to sell something to another man.
The student said that when they got to the lot, two men got into their back seat. One of them brandished a gun and ordered the students to surrender their wallets.
Police said the student thought the gun was fake, so he wrestled with the man and was hit in the left arm when it fired.

I personally think 50 carbs is unduly low for your lifestyle and you should look at that again
Hello folks, another new guy here! I'm Stuart from the UK
Im planning on switching to an 80% paleo diet over the weekend, but have a couple of concerns. My main one being that my bicycle is my current mode of transport, and I currently do around 25 miles a day, 5 days a week. According to various measurements Im burning around 700-800 calories per day.
I ride what you would probably call a rigorous pace, and I end up breathless, sweaty, and usually head straight to the fridge. I can easily eat 600-700 calories as soon as I get in the office at 8am.
Would a diet comprising of 50g of carbs be sufficient for me?
Do I need up to the carbs after / before the workout?
I currently dont drink on much water do you think this would decrease the hunger pangs?
My main aims are slight weight loss( maybe 5-10KG),increased fitness as well as muscle growth
I dont plan on decreasing my cardio, so please dont suggest I slow down or take it easier, as this isnt an option I want to consider.
Thanks all
I personally think 50 carbs is unduly low for your lifestyle and you should look at that again
When I'd had enough of the grain and starched based 'diabetic eating for health' diet (eating for health, my ass!) my weight was 242.5 lbs. On starting primal- 18th April 2013 weight : 238.1.
27th July 2013. weight after 100 days 136.9 weight lost 101.2lb ; that's 105.6lbs since I stopped the 'diabetic eating for health'
new journal http://www.marksdailyapple.com/forum...ml#post1264082
Hi Stuart,
If you are completely new to primal and come from SAD, here is my piece of advice:
- eat 100% primal foods (aka no toxic shit) at regular schedules (no snacking between meals)
- slow down your pace a little at the beginning to let your body adapt to your new WOE
- do this for say 4 to 6 weeks regardless of your weight loss goals, i.e. don't focus on weight loss to start with
When you are adapted to eating primal, without caring too much about carb vs fat vs protein (you can do 33/33/33 if that's what you want, as long as the foods is whole and primal), you can experiment further and tweak.
If you are not obese, I don't see why you would go down in carbs like that. Just remove the toxic crap from your diet (you will experience some withdrawal symptoms if you are a refined sugar addict or eating wheat every day), eat regular meals without snacking, and SLEEP plenty.
The rest is 2nd order (or more) effects that you don't have to think about when you start.
So if I upped the carbs, that would be potatoes, other carby veg, fruit?
Do you think a calorie target of around 2,500 per day would be adequate? Or do I just work that out as I go along?
Hey Stuart, welcome!
You have an active enough lifestyle that I think you shouldn't worry too much about the calorie count. As dk said, eat the Primal foods and don't worry too much about the counts.
I'm very active myself (although I don't bike like you do!), and have fallen into the habit of eating things I like, in the amount I feel like eating. I know it sounds unreasonable if you've been counting calories in a previous life, but you'll settle into reasonable portion sizes naturally. Just stick to foods from the Primal "approved" list and delete the others.
Mark's nutritional pyramid makes it easy to keep your diet balanced. Eat, move, sleep. Done, and done.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using Marks Daily Apple Forum mobile app
If that can help, here is what I did: I spotted the most nutritious foods I could get my hands on, and that would be organ meats, fatty cuts of meats (ruminant meat preferably), eggs, fish, fruits and tubers (I like veggies but I consider them a side item for the variety, not so much for the nutrition because they don't tend to be nutritionally dense). It happens that I was very fond of liver and kidneys as a kid, I just had forgotten about it ... crazy to think about it a posteriori when my diet ended up centered around wheat based foods (you really displace a lot of other foods that are far better and much less toxic when you feed on junk ...) so when I eat, I start by the most nutritious stuff and end the meal with the less nutritious stuff if I still want to eat. I always end up finishing my meals with a few berries or pieces of fruits but not all the time. A few days ago, I had a big plate of oven baked "French fries" (which I cut myself from organic potatoes) and a big piece of beef liver and caramelized onions. That was quite some carb load but it did not affect me in any particular way that I could feel. SOme other day, I mixed up 6 eggs and fish roe with some flavors that ended as a giant omelet bathing in butter. I had a bit of dark chocolate after that and the odd pieces of liver paté while I was cooking. The carb content was very small ...
I don't know. I do bike about 20 miles a day, not at a snail pace but I don't have a race bike so it does make me sweat a bit but I am not trying to break records With that said, I just eat until I am really full. But since I eat only once a day (I don't eat for about 20-22 hours), that's OK (I reprogrammed my hunger signal so I don't bother eating all day long, you save a lot of time and money + fasting that long has some benefits, one being body re-composition but you can experiment later when you are fully into primal eating). I would say 2500-3000 is a good target to start with but don't sweat it if you don't meet your goal every day. The idea is to NOT stress about these things and have fun, enjoy eating good foods, and move your butt. But you already know thisDo you think a calorie target of around 2,500 per day would be adequate? Or do I just work that out as I go along?
Hi Red, welcome. I'd offer some advice but our Danish chum has said it all and hats off to him. I do quite a bit of cardio (against primal and my own logic) and I don't really rely on carbs but I find a little trickle keeps my system working. Primal isn't low carb per se but it kind of ends up that way when you cut out the junk. Sweet potato fries cooked in beef dripping are a great way of indulging and refueling and if you don't mind dairy a bowl of greek yoghurt with some nuts and seeds and a spoon of raw honey is pretty good too. The best thing about cutting the junk is that you can start trusting your body to let you know what it wants again. Mine used to scream beer and pizza like a mad thing!
I was worried that the diet wasn't compatible with my cardio. I've got some potatoes and sweet potatoes in the cupboard, so will maybe have a couple with dinner or in my lunchbox and see how it goes. Might end up more a 'real food' diet rather than strictly Paleo.
I'll restrict them at the start of the week, and add if I think I need them.
Are you an athlete? If not, you're doing what we call cronic cardio. If biking is your transportation from here to there, treat it like that and bike slowly enough that you're not tired when you get there. Loosing calories by exercising them off is not necessary, or even good. When adapted to the right diet you can loose those 5 - 10 kg while sitting or sleeping. Exercising is for health and Mark recommends doing it very differently.

I've reduced my cardio effort by around 30% and it seems to have made a difference. I don't have the insane hunger I had before. My diet was highly processed, but I've cut all that out, and my energy levels are more consistent throughout the day.
If I was an athlete, training around 15 hours per week, in what way would a paleo diet need to be altered?

Alright. I have a story I want to share with you, about how Handsome proposed and things around that time. But I feel like thats jumping in the middle. And while I'm cool with it, you may not be. If I went ahead with it anyhow, you may feel lost and forlorn, like someone who has the picture on the box, but not all the pieces of the puzzle. And I'd hate to do that to you.
So I'm going to fill in some of the beginning so that I can tell you about the middle another day. Also, there's a video I'm going to need to include, and its on my hard drive in my office. See? I'm not all altruistic and junk. I'm also scattered.
So as I've already mentioned, I met Handsome in high school. I actually heard about him when I was in 7th grade. I was at a different school, and hanging out at the county fair with some friends. One of my friends squealed and got all excited; Geraldo Magagnotti (names have been changed to protect the delightful.) was there! Of course, he was with his cousin, who would turn out to be Handsome, but I didn't know either of them. My friend wanted to follow the two of them around and work up the nerve to talk to Geraldo. I mocked my friend, and Geraldo and Handsome's last name. "Magagnotti? Pshaw. What kind of crazy name is that? Mag-ag-ag-a-nooooti? Weird." Oh, how ironic...
So, then high school, biology class, we hung out in the same group of friends, I was a statistician for the soccer team, Handsome was a game-changer on the team... Just friends. Of course, he was in l-o-v-e with me, but I didn't know, and when he told me, I kinda ignored him. Yep. Not proud of it. He took me to homecoming. I have proof:
|He's so adorable here. I can't even handle it!
Handsome picked me up in his grandma's Dodge Dart. Later, my Mom told me I couldn't go anywhere in that car again; the backseat was too large. We had fun, but then I wouldn't date him, then I thought I might date him, then I decided against it... blah blah blah. Lets just say there was a lot of teenage angst in those years.
Eventually, Handsome stopped talking to me. So, like the fickle yet organized female I am, I made a calendar. Every day I missed him, I checked the day off. Three days in a row, two days off, 6 days in a row, one day off, until eventually, 17 days in a row, I missed him. Welp, that sealed it for me.
So I wrote Handsome a letter, about 4 pages front and back explaining the depths of my feelings for him. (Hahaha... if you're not laughing at me right now, well, perhaps you should get your laugher checked. I'm laughing at me.) My friend Hilde dropped me off and, for whatever reason, told me "Whatever you do, don't run away."
I knocked on the door, (p.s.- its New Years Eve), H.'s Mom let me in, he came out, and then I said, "Hi. I just wanted to give you this. *hands envelope* Have a happy New Years." And I turned around, started running, and jumped right off his porch. I'm so good at uncomfortable situations, can't you tell?
Oh, and we started dating the next day. I outlined a few things for him, such as (a) no sex, (b) don't get arrested, and (c) "I will not date you for more than 5 years. After that I will need a status change, or there will be a personnel change." He agreed, and on our merry way we went.
We mostly hung out with each other's families, held hands in the hall, and passed notes. Our first date was to Wal*Mart to get chapstick. Real hot & heavy, if you can't tell.
After all of this nonsense, we dated for 4 1/2 years (because Handsome likes to take it to the limit), although most days it feels like we've been together since the dawn of time. And thats where we'll pick up next time. I'm going to leave you with some priceless photos from those years. You're welcome.
|His Prom. No, thats not the wedding singer.
|My Prom.
|My high school graduation. And no, H. is not under the influence of anything.
His eyes just always looked like that in high school.
(Re-) Living the Good Life,

Police standoff ends with arrest in San Francisco
Authorities set up 3-block perimeter
Police say a standoff has ended after police arrested a robbery suspect who had barricaded himself inside a marijuana growing site in San Francisco.
Officers say four hostages who worked inside the building had been released earlier.
Police Sgt. Michael Andraychak said Wednesday that a tactical team with a police dog arrested the man who surrendered following the seven-hour standoff at the building in the city's Bayview district.
Earlier, police arrested three other suspects wearing ski masks as they ran from the scene following a robbery report.
Police quickly set up a three-block perimeter and treated the situation as though there were hostages. A SWAT team and negotiators were called.

Boys basketball: Tall T-birds top Oak Harbor
Shorewood bullied its way to a 65-53 boys basketball win at Oak Harbor Tuesday, Dec. 14.
The Thunderbirds' front line players scored all put 10 of the team's points as Shorewood upped its league record to 1-1 and season mark to 3-2. The Wildcats fell to 0-2, 1-4.
Oak Harbor travels to Everett (0-2, 2-4) Friday, Dec. 17, then hosts Mountlake Terrace (3-0, 4-1) Tuesday, Dec. 21, at 7:30 p.m.
The balanced Shorewood scoring attack featured five players with nine or more points. Post Cage Carroll led the way with 15. Josh Hawkinson, a 6-8 center, added 12 points while hitting all five of his field goal attempts.
Mike Washington Jr. paced Oak Harbor with a game-high 22 points, and Jay Stout tossed in 12.
Shorewood took a 29-25 lead into the locker room, then built some breathing room in the third quarter to up its lead to 43-32 going into the fourth period.
Oak Harbor fell behind by 16 early in the fourth quarter and never threatened.
The Wildcat defense had trouble containing the size and strength of the T-birds and committed 27 fouls, 12 more than the visitors. That gave Shorewood a whopping 37 to 18 edge in free throw attempts. The Thunderbirds hit 19 to Oak Harbor's 11.
Not much went right for Oak Harbor, but coach Mike Washington Sr. was pleased that his club hung tough with the taller T-birds on the boards, grabbing 36 rebounds, just two less than Shorewood.
Shorewood, getting a lot of close rang shots, hit 21 of 44 field goals (47.7 percent). The Wildcats were much cooler, netting just 18 of 56 (32.1 percent).
Oak Harbor tried to combat Shorewood size by shooting over its 2-3 zone, but connected on only six of 19 three-balls (31.6 percent).
Washington Sr. said the Thunderbirds "ran their offense well and stayed in a 2-3 all night long."
He added, "We had some bad shot selections. We have to be able to shoot the ball better. (In the) third quarter we stopped being aggressive. We have to get better attacking zone defenses."
Senior Stevie Bratt, back from an ankle injury, made his debut for Oak Harbor and scored seven points, pulled down a team-high six rebounds and collected two steals.
Denzel Massey had seven points and five rebounds for the Wildcats, and Kevawn Brooks and Josiah Miller added two points each. Trace Paul hit a free throw and snared five rebounds.

Good News!
Wow, seems .NET Guy isn't blocked on my ISP, Pars Online, anymore. As a matter of fact the IP address which blongs to Hosting Matter is not blocked so I can visit it. So, the websites which were hosted on Hosting Matter should have become free already. I hope this continues and all websites which are blocked, become free. But persianblog, still has blocked IPs of Pars Online so we can't visit them in an straight way. Hamed Banaei discusses how to view them using Pars Online. I am not so cruel to only talk about sites which are blocked, I will talk about the ones which were blocked and became free too. I hope not to see these sites blocked again.

On the surface it might seem like Mitt Romney and Sen.-elect Elizabeth Warren are polar opposites. Romney is the quintessential conservative Wall Street CEO, and Warren has devoted her public life to championing consumer rights and reigning-in Wall Street. In fact, if there was a Super Hero for liberalism, it would be Warren.
The fact that Warren won and Romney lost in the 2012 election cycle is where their differences converge. The focal point is the American electorate and a changing mood in the country.
After years of being the victims of the Wall Street greed and corruption that reached its pinnacle when the financial system collapsed in 2008, people simply got tired of listening to politicians promising them improvements that never appeared.
Spin can only take a political party so far and this is where the Republican Party failed. You can't tell 23 million unemployed people and another 15 million living in poverty that the answer to their problems are in voting for a millionaire who wants to take away whatever help the government has provided and give more money to the rich.
That was Romney's message, without the balloons and party streamers.
The concept might have worked, but for the fact that there are not enough rich white people left in America to elect one of their own to the White House.
Elizabeth Warren is a liberal's liberal, light years away from the gates of Romney-world.
A defender of the working class, Warren was instrumental in crafting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and was a staunch supporter of the Dodd-Frank financial reform law. Not surprisingly, her election has Wall Street bankers running scared.
"Lobbyists and trade groups for Wall Street and other major banking players are pressuring lawmakers to deny Warren a seat on the powerful Senate banking committee," according to Mother Jones.
Elections do have consequences. Warren and Romney symbolize a shift in political fashion. Conservatism is out and liberalism is in. It's all about personal economics, something few Republicans seem to understand.
Romney and the Republicans want to live in an unattainable, unrealistic past. They see civil rights, worker's rights, and ethnic diversity as unwelcome aspects of the national evolution, instead of part of its strength. That might be because they look at the world from the top-down.
People who work for a living for 30 or 40 years want to retire without spending the rest of their days eating cat food in a trailer park. They don't mind paying taxes if they get a return on their investment. It's capitalism, without the vultures.
It turns out that the 2012 election results were not simply about job creation. They were about quality of life.
Romney represented more hardship for more Americans. Warren is an icon of how government can work to protect the middle-class and working poor from people like the latest failed GOP presidential nominee.

Grading Last Decade's No. 1 CFB Recruits
February 4th, 2013| by Lost Lettermen
B-: Ernie Sims (2003)
[EDITOR'S NOTE: AdBlock must be disabled in order for the slideshow to function properly.]
National Signing Day is this Wednesday. Among those who remain uncommitted is Rivals' top prospect in the Class of 2013, DE Robert Nkemdiche. How have his predecessors atop the Rivals 100 over the past decade panned out? We grade each of them based on how much each lived up to the expectations of being the top recruit in the nation at the college level.
Sims was such a dominant schoolboy player that he earned his first high school varsity letter as an eighth-grader. Ranked one spot ahead of future USC star RB Reggie Bush by Rivals, Sims would earn Second Team All-ACC honors as a sophomore and play in two Orange Bowls.
Alas, the current Dallas Cowboy wasn't the dominant linebacker in the mold of either Derrick Brooks or Peter Boulware that Florida State was hoping for. And while not directly responsible for FSU's descent into mediocrity, Sims was a member of the team when it began.
A: Adrian Peterson (2004)
Before he became Purple Jesus, Peterson was a Sooners Savior. In 2004, A.D. set a freshman record for rushing yards (1,925), earned First Team All-America honors, became the first freshman to finish as the runner-up in the Heisman Trophy balloting and led the Sooners to the BCS title game.
When all was said and done, Peterson would rush for 4,045 yards in just three seasons, good for second all-time in OU history behind Billy Sims. If it weren't for a high ankle sprain that limited him as a sophomore and a broken collarbone as a junior that caused him to miss seven games, Peterson would have been one of the greatest college football players of all time.
As it turned out, Peterson's time in Norman was an appetizer for an NFL career which, thus far, has been Hall of Fame worthy.
B-: Derrick Williams (2005)
Williams explained his decision to join a Nittany Lions' program that had suffered four losing seasons in the previous five years thusly: "I did it because I trusted in [Joe Paterno]. He promised me I could help turn the program around."
Injuries prevented the Greenbelt, MD, from being the superstar he was in high school, but he did indeed help reverse Penn State's fortunes dramatically. Williams' teams went 40–8 in his four seasons in Happy Valley, capturing two Big Ten titles (2005 and 2008) and winning the 2006 Orange Bowl.
In terms of personal accomplishments, Williams bookended his college career that included 4,156 all-purpose yards with All-Big Ten Freshman and First Team All-Big Ten honors. While it was a solid career in Happy Valley, the current NFL free agent never had over 530 yards receiving in any one season.
A-: Percy Harvin (2006)
Similar in stature and playing style to Derrick Williams, Harvin's career at Florida was a step above.
Like Williams, Harvin was a winner — only winning for Harvin meant two BCS championships in three years. He averaged 11.6 yards from scrimmage every time he touched the ball on offense, scoring 32 TDs in just three seasons in Gainesville.
If a quarterback of lesser caliber than Tim Tebow had been at the helm in 2007 and 2008, Harvin's stats might have been even more impressive, as it stands to reason that the dynamic Virginia Beach native would have gotten more touches. Nonetheless, he was still wildly explosive with the Gators and his 4.34 40-yard-dash time now on display for the Minnesota Vikings was the definition of "SEC speed."
B: Jimmy Clausen (2007)
The youngest of three quarterback brothers was touted to be by far the best coming out of Oaks Christian High School in Westlake Village, CA. And while Clausen's final numbers (8,148 yards and 60 TDs) were applause-worthy, it feels like he fell short of expectations.
For one, Notre Dame was an unspectacular 16–21 in Clausen's three seasons. Their best year was a 7–6 campaign in 2008 that ended with a Hawaii Bowl win. And Clausen often wasted the good will generated by his best games with reports of concerning off-the-field behavior (citation of illegal transportation of alcohol in June 2007, bar altercation in November 2009) and trash-talking on it.
If it weren't for a junior year in which he threw for 3,700 yards and 28 TDs to just four interceptions, this grade would be much lower. Clausen's pro career has been far more disappointing, as "the next great Notre Dame NFL quarterback" is now riding the pine for the Carolina Panthers.
B+: Terrelle Pryor (2008)
For all the controversy and disappointment that ended his career at Ohio State, the Jeannette, PA, product was 32–4 as the Buckeyes' starting quarterback. His teams won two Big Ten titles and made trips to three straight BCS bowl games — two of which the Buckeyes won.
Other hardware that Pryor collected included 2008 Big Ten Freshman of the Year honors and three straight Honorable Mention All-Big Ten seasons. After blossoming as a junior, we'll sadly never know how good the supremely-talented Pryor could have been at OSU if he had stayed in school all four years. It appeared the poor accuracy and bad decision making that held Pryor back from greatness was past him during a superb MVP performance in the 2011 Sugar Bowl.
Now an Oakland Raider, the suddenness of Pryor's departure from the program following revelations of NCAA violations clouded his legacy but didn't change the fact Pryor won a lot of football games in Columbus.
F: Bryce Brown (2009)
Much of the bluster Lane Kiffin displayed upon arriving on Rocky Top was tied to his inking of Brown, who Rivals called "the top-rated running back of the past five years." While not engendering Kiffin-esque levels of animosity among Vols fans, Brown's tenure in Knoxville — and his college career as a whole — was a major disappointment.
Backing up Montario Hardesty, Brown rushed for a modest 460 yards and three touchdowns in his freshman season. Then, on the first day of Tennessee's 2010 spring practice, Brown announced that he was leaving the program.
Brown redshirted at Kansas State in 2010 and then bolted the team in September 2011 after just three total rushes for the Wildcats. Brown's final college rushing stats: 104 carries, 476 yards and three touchdowns. Oof.
Only after a surprising rookie season with the Philadelphia Eagles last fall in which Brown eclipsed his entire college career with 564 rushing yards and four touchdowns is he salvaging his career.
INC: Ronald Powell (2010)
The second No. 1 overall recruit then-Florida coach Urban Meyer lured to Gainesville, Powell was an All-SEC Freshman performer in 2010 and led the Gators in sacks in 2011 (six) while also registering nine tackles for loss. His prospects were definitely on the up-and-up.
Then the Moreno Valley, CA, native suffered an ACL injury in Florida's 2012 Spring Game, one that kept him out all of last season. He reinjured the knee in September during his rehab. It remains to be seen if Powell can stay on the field and, if he can, whether he'll have the same explosiveness as before.
As a result, grading Powell's college career at this point is impossible.
A: Jadeveon Clowney (2011)
Even though Clowney dominated the competition while he was at South Pointe High School in Rock Hill, SC, no one could have anticipated how much he would impose his will at the college level – and in the sport's best conference, no less.
Amid comparisons to Lawrence Taylor, Julius Peppers and other pass-rushing demons of yore, Clowney has shown abilities that suggest he might be better than all of them. He's 6-foot-6 and 256 pounds yet runs like a deer (and can leap like one, too). He's widely considered college football's best player and the No. 1 overall pick of the 2014 NFL Draft.
SEC offenses are probably lamenting the fact that they have to face him for at least one more season – one more year for him to try and outdo his school-record 13 sacks from last fall and now legendary de-cleating of Michigan's Vincent Smith in the Outback Bowl.
By the end of 2013, we fully expect this grade to be an A+.
INC: Dorial Green-Beckham (2012)
A 6-foot-6, 220-pound specimen, Green-Beckham arrived in Columbia last fall as the best wide receiver prospect since Randy Moss. Alas, 2012 was evidence that it will take some time for Green-Beckham to live up to that hype.
As the Tigers struggled to a 5–7 season in their first year in the SEC, Green-Beckham hauled in just 28 catches for 395 yards. Off the field proved to be a struggle, too, as he was arrested (along with two freshman teammates) and suspended for marijuana possession in October.
In Green-Beckham's defense, he has plenty of time to still live up to all the hype. And "DGB" came on strong late in the season with four TDs in his final three games. Tigers coaches and fans no doubt hope that he can put all of his struggles from last fall behind him in 2013.

(If the website doesn't work give it 30 minutes after this post and it will be fine)
A couple quick things. Lots of people have thanked me for this doing this donation thing or giving me credit. And while nobody loves taking credit for shit more than I do (IE – inventing Jenna Marbles, Guess That Ass, The Internet) in this case I deserve no recognition. This is 100% the Stoolies. People keep asking me if I'm surprised how much money the Stoolies raised so quickly and I'm honestly not. I would have been surprised if we didn't. I know how awesome our readers are. I know they get it. Every single time I've expected the Stoolies to rise to the occasion they have. This is no different. And probably like me you're just shrugging your shoulders about it. I mean this was a no brainer. Had to be done. Like okay shit happened, time to step it up and help people who need it. It's a reflection of the overall website and why I always scoff at people who make fun of us. Yeah we like to have fun and laugh and make fun of shit and we'll save treating things like life and death situations for events like Monday.
Thanks again and let's keep going. Shirts will ship probably around Thursday. We were waiting for the end of today to place the orders based on how many were bought.

Jenn Bonnett's eTour helps Net navigators avoid the info tsunami
Jenn Bonnett lost three boyfriends last year while working around the clock at eTour.com—but at least she hooked up millions of Webgoers. eTour, which serves up sites custom-chosen to reflect users' interests, is a big hit with surfers sick of searching. "When you register, you tell us what you like, picking as many subjects as you like out of 132 categories, from collectibles to literature or snowboarding," says Bonnett, 34, who cofounded the Atlanta-based site in 1998 and is now VP of technology. eTourists can click through sites as if using a remote control. Last year, The Industry Standard magazine named eTour one of the Web's "most addictive" sites. A former corporate software designer, Bonnett just bought a house with a yard for her cocker spaniel puppy. "eTour took over my life, but now I'm seriously working on balance," she says. "I don't want to be single forever."
My Favorite Site
Andy Richter
Conan O'Brien's former sidekick is counting the days until diaper duty. "My wife"—Sarah Thyre, 32, who starred on Comedy Central's Strangers with Candy—"is pregnant, so pregnancydaily.com is one of my favorites," says Richter, 34. Enter Junior's due date, and the site dispenses a progress report. "It tells you this is day 203 and what the development of the kid is," says Richter, a costar in the recently released Dr. T. & the Women. (Little Richter is due in late November.) "I look at it daily."
Internet Manners
I am a member of several clubs with e-mail lists. Some members repeatedly use the lists for nonclub matters and send messages advertising the fact that their friends are having a yard sale or that someone's mother will be in New York City and needs a place to stay. This is annoying—how can I tell them to stop it?
Most mailing lists set a policy about this sort of thing: Some ban off-topic messages, others allow them. Contact the person in charge of the list. He or she should be the one to determine if the list is being abused and to reprimand the scofflaw. (If you don't have a clear policy, members should vote on one.) Don't upbraid the offender yourself. Mailing-list squabbles can quickly get nasty enough to turn your next get-together into WWF Smackdown! And definitely don't e-mail the whole list to complain; that's a Netiquette no-no of the first degree.

Riskiness Measures and Expected Returns

Ohio State University (OSU) - Fisher College of Business
February 17, 2011
Inspired by Aumann and Serrano (2008) and Foster and Hart (2009), we propose risk-neutral options' implied measures of riskiness and investigate their significance in predicting the cross section of expected returns per unit of risk. The empirical analyses indicate a negative and significant link between the forward looking options' implied measures of riskiness and future stock returns. Stocks in the lowest riskiness portfolio have economically and statistically higher risk-adjusted returns than those in the highest riskiness portfolio. These results are robust to controls for market beta, size, book-to-market, momentum, short-term reversal, and liquidity of individual stocks. Controlling for the risk-neutral measure of skewness and the widely used measures of volatility and downside risk (value-at-risk and expected shortfall) does not affect the significant predictive power of riskiness. The paper also introduces alternative measures of riskiness for the aggregate stock market and shows that aggregate riskiness successfully predicts future economic downturns.

Fantasia: With her platinum debut album, Free Yourself, still riding high on the R&B charts, Fantasia, 20, launches her first solo U.S. tour June 8 in St. Louis.
ON HER TOUR SET LIST I do a little old-school: Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Prince. I'm doing Queen's "Crazy Little Thing Called Love." We mix it up.
ON HER UPCOMING AUTOBIOGRAPHY It's basically about a lot of things I went through at a young age that I think will help and touch a lot of people. I went through a lot of bad relationships, being a young mom, hanging in the streets. It goes from the age of 5 until now.
ON HER FAVORITE IDOL FINALIST THIS SEASON Bo Bice. He's got great stage presence. He's a great singer. His a cappella performance [of Badlands' 'In a Dream'] was awesome. I'd want to do a duet with him. He's rock, I'm soul.
Be yourself. Stay humble. Have a good time. Take it and run as far as you can with it. —CARLA HAY

When Wanda Klause began working part time for the city of Borger in 1964, manual typewriters, carbon paper and mimeograph machines were the high-tech office tools of the day.
Now Klause totes a laptop computer most everywhere she goes, proving to be a valuable tool for Borger's city manager.
But those days are drawing to an end as Klause will turn off her office lights for the last time March 31.
Technology is only one of the many changes she's seen in her 46-year career with the city, during which she's worked in accounting, municipal services and, finally, administration. At a time others were signing up for Social Security, Klause was taking on new responsibilities as city manager, a post she's held for six years.
"It's been a wonderful journey," she said.
As that journey is coming to an end, for the city it will be the beginning of a new chapter in its management. Finding a replacement for the 71-year-old Klause will be up to the mayor and the City Council's four members who supervise the city manager's work.
"Her retirement is not effective for three more months, so we as a council have not determined what the next step is going to be," Mayor Jeff Brain said.
Until they decide how to proceed in hiring Klause's replacement, Brain said Assistant City Manager Eddie Edwards can lead the city in the months following Klause's retirement.
"We certainly hate to see her retire. She's been such an asset to the city for so many years, but at the same time, it was expected. We knew that day was coming," Brain said.
The council will look for some specific qualities in its next manager.
"Someone who gets along well with people, who can gain their trust as a leader, and someone who has good financial acumen and the ability to see the overall picture of the city present and future," Brain said.
Klause said she's ready for a new adventure, one that includes travel, learning Spanish and French, and perhaps interim employment in city government.
"I think it's time to let the young people we've trained - and they are perfectly capable of continuing the projects I've started - it's time for me to step aside and let them take the reins and lead our city," Klause said.

Republicans face an uphill battle in Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the Supreme Court.
Opponents say they're prepared to use every tool in their arsenal to sway public opinion.
And they may get some help making their case next month.
Many legal analysts predict the Supreme Court will overturn Sotomayor's ruling in a reverse discrimination employment case.
CBN News spoke with Dr. Gerson Moreno-Riano, Department Chair of Government at the Regent School of Undergraduate Studies.
Click the player for more on how Republicans can oppose her without alienating the Hispanic community.
The high court already has overturned 60 percent of Sotomayor's rulings delivered on the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals.
Lawmakers are preparing to scrutinize her record.
"I think the center-right coalition is very unified on this message of she's a judicial activist. Her words and her own published writings tell that story," said Gary Marx, the executive director of Judicial Confirmation Network.
President Obama is pushing to have Sotomayor confirmed by the end of the summer.

Eleven-year-old Nadia Bloom was found alive in swamp lands near Orlando, Tuesday, and her family is giving credit to God.
Bloom suffers from a mild form of autism and had been missing for almost five days, but her family's church helped locate her.
"I never believed in miracles, but I sure do now," Winter Springs Police Chief said.
Bloom went missing Friday, April 9, near a Florida swamp infested with alligators. Yet search crews from her church found the girl alive and carried her out Tuesday morning.
Police said Bloom is in good shape, but was dehydrated, hungry and covered in mosquito bites.
Rescuers had to carry her out of the swamp water by chopping down bushes because the swamp is too dense for a helicopter.
The police chief complimented the rescue crews for fighting through the swampy terrain that ranged from six feet of water to five feet of mud.
A pastor from the Metro Church, where Bloom attends with her family, said volunteer rescue worker James King found Bloom after praying to God, and God worked a miracle.
"The Lord put it in his spirit to go out this morning at daybreak and asked the Lord to direct his paths. He saidm 'Lord, we need to find this girl today, and I need you to make my paths straight like your Word says.' And eventually, he finds her in the middle of a swampy area," Worship Pastor Bret Testerman said.
"People do see God's hand in it," he said. "These things very often do not turn out well. We were praying, we were optimistic, and put our faith in God, and it's amazing."
Winter Springs officials did not ask for help from volunteers in the search, but King, and close to 100 others from the church decided to search anyway.
The church is holding a celebratory worship service tonight, and there's definitely a lot to thank God for.
Police believe Bloom may have been inspired to go wandering in the woods by a story she read in an "American Girl" book.
The book talks about an explorer who goes out in the wilderness to track wildlife.

Alternative Break Applications
To learn more about this year's trips and to apply, go HERE!
Alternative Break trips allow students to travel to communities in parts of the country and the world and engage in service and experimental learning during university holiday breaks. These short-term service trips provide an all-inclusive experience for students while providing a learning experience on issues such as literacy, poverty, racism, hunger, homelessness, and the environment. These trips are fundamentally life-changing for the students and those whom they serve.
The Center for Service and Leadership began taking students on Alternative Break trips in 1995. The first trip was at the Boys and Girls Club of Tuscaloosa where students worked to positively impact the community youth. As interest grew, more and more projects were added locally, nationally, and internationally. Since the first trip 20 years ago, it's evident that students want to serve and the CSL can help them get there. Alternative Break trips include Alternative Fall Break, Alternative Winter Break, Alternative Spring Break, and Alternative May Interim Break.
The purpose of the program is to involve college students in community-based service projects and to give students opportunities to learn about the problems faced by members of communities with whom they would otherwise have little or no contact with. Being completely immersed into diverse environments enables students to experience, discuss, and understand social issues in a significant way.

Alaska artist enters plea deal in animal-parts case
FAIRBANKS, Alaska -- A 62-year-old Nenana artist charged with illegally selling and exporting Alaska animal parts has reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors.
The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reports Miles Martin on Friday in federal court agreed to plead guilty to four felony counts and to refrain from business related to wildlife.
The deal calls for a jail sentence of six to 10 months in jail and a $6,750 fine.
Martin's plea covered counts of selling trumpeter swan and bald eagle feathers, a walrus head with two tusks and other animal parts. Prosecutors say he offered for sale seal claws, polar bear teeth and fur, and a seal tooth.
Sentencing is set for June 7.

Montana ice climber crawls to help after breaking ankle
BOZEMAN, Mont. -- A Bozeman man crawled for a mile through the snow to find help after breaking his ankle in an ice-climbing fall.
The Bozeman Daily Chronicle reports Ted Lange fell Sunday as he started to climb up a pillar of ice in Hyalite Canyon.
Tate Dunkel, his climbing partner, tried to pull him out using a makeshift toboggan, but the progress was slow and they decided to send Dunkel ahead.
By then it was late afternoon. Lange crawled out of the woods and into an area more accessible to snowmobiles.
That's where Gallatin County rescuers found him at 7 p.m. Other than his ankle, Lange was unharmed.
Lange used an Internet mapping program to estimate he'd traveled roughly two miles over the snow, more than half of that while crawling.

People sometimes ask if I've ever seen a ghost in this house, a reasonable question since the house dates to 1762. Like the flowers in the field that open in spring and fold when their time is over, many people have been born here, lived here, worked here, and died here, leaving an invisible tapestry of legacies. Ghosts, I've been told, are beings with unfinished business, unable to leave until it's settled. I believe in ghosts and would not dismiss a ghost or reason it away if I saw one. But I've never seen or heard one in this house.
I've heard many accounts of ghosts, including one from the inn in my town. In one particular room, a gossamer woman takes a seat in the rocking chair at the foot of the bed after dark. I've heard the same account from several different guests who have stayed there. The accepted remedy, if you want one, is to put a stack of pillows on the chair, which seems to keep her from making herself at home.
However, the first year that I lived here, so many unexplained and unfortunate things happened, it felt like a haunting. The pipes froze and broke. The heavy weight of a massive ice storm broke many of the venerable trees that had given the property its poetic appeal. Since I was unable to move into the house until my previous home sold, I rented the house to a family whose rent was to cover the mortgage until I could take up residence. The septic immediately overflowed. Their children managed to wreak enough havoc upon the place that my insurance company (fortunately) covered the damage under vandalism. In four months, our one-man police force made 25 visits to the house (for reasons that could not be disclosed, because these were minors).
When at last I moved in, early on a May morning, I set to work on the renovations, hiring a number of wonderful craftsmen to help me. It seemed then that the curse had been lifted. And yet, within a few weeks, two of the men suffered heart attacks. Fortunately, both men recovered. But as all these occurrences accumulated, they, in themselves, created a further sense of foreboding. I became convinced that a bad spirit lingered here, giving me the extremely uncomfortable feeling that I was not meant to be in this house.
Perhaps it was my persistence that ended the jinx. I continued on the path I'd set, brushing away cobwebs, opening up doorways and adding windows. I filled the house with family and friends. Light entered and warm feelings took up residence.
So, in answer to the question, I've never seen a ghostly figure walk down the hallway, nor have I heard footsteps on the stairs or harp music coming from the rafters. But if a house is capable of having a spirit, this one certainly does. A spirit I cleave to.

The Bluffton boys soccer team avenged a prior loss to Fort Dorchester Friday to help knot up the Region 8-AAAA standings.
The Patriots had won five straight region games to move into first place for the region but Fridays 2-1 loss to the Bobcats left Ashley Ridge, Bluffton, Fort Dorchester and Summerville all with a 6-3 region record and tied going into the final night of region play.
We just made the knot tighter, Bluffton coach Josh Fox said. We had never beat these boys so we talked about that all week. This is the fourth time weve played them and they got us the first three times. One of our goals is to be at home for the playoffs so I just asked them to not get out worked tonight and they responded.
The game was scoreless for more than a half. Finally, with just under 17 minutes remaining, Fort Dorchester broke the tie. Koh Matsumoto was fouled and that gave the Patriots a free kick from just outside the box. Clay Mahlie sent the kick right to the front of the goal and Reid Couch laid out and headed the ball into the net for what fans thought would be the game-winning goal.
However, Bluffton needed only 30 seconds to answer. The Bobcats quickly worked the ball into the box and then Davis Rosenbloom sent a shot into the net for a 1-1 tie.
Both teams created scoring opportunities in the following minutes but it wasnt until past the 10-minute remaining mark that either scored.
Bluffton was awarded a free kick from just outside the box and Miguel Jiminize sent the kick into the right corner of the net for the 2-1 Bobcat advantage.
Mathew Hardin made a powerful sidekick late in the game that put the Patriot fans on the edge of their seat, but the shot sailed just over the crossbar.
Despite the loss, Fort Dorchester coach Chris Jones said he liked his teams effort.
Im proud of my team, Jones said. Weve been talking about doing your best every game and leaving everything on the field so you can leave with your head held high.
Tonight they did that. You could tell when they came off the field they were disappointed with the outcome but they felt good. Im happy that we achieved that level of play. Where going to need that moving forward and I think we are in a good position to do some good things.
Playoff seeding for the regions top four teams all came down to games played Tuesday night after press time. Ashley Ridge played Colleton County and Bluffton faced Beaufort. Fort Dorchester wrapped up its schedule with a game against Summerville.
The Patriots carried a 13-5-1 overall record into that game.

WoO LMs Wet In Georgia
SYLVANIA, Ga. — Saturday night's World of Outlaws Late Model Series program at Screven Motor Speedway was washed out by strong spring storms, but the cancelation will bring an even bigger return engagement for the national tour.
Screven promoter Redd Griffin reached an agreement with WoO LMS officials to reschedule the circuit's annual visit to the three-eighths-mile oval for Nov. 1 or 2. Griffin will also pump up the A-Main's first-place prize to $12,000, creating a huge lead-in to the season-ending World Finals on Nov. 3-5 at The Dirt Track at Charlotte.
The new date for Screven's WoO LMS event is tentatively set for Wed., Nov. 2 – the same evening for which Griffin previously rescheduled his 'Winter Freeze's program, a doubleheader featuring dirt Late Models and the O'Reilly All-Star Circuit of Champions Sprint Car Series that was rained out last month. Griffin will reset the WoO LMS card to Tues., Nov. 1, however, if wet weather would force the World of Outlaws Showdown on Oct. 12 at The Dirt Track at Charlotte to be postponed to Nov. 2 in conjunction with the World Finals.
