YOUNGSTOWN - Vienna township trustees and fiscal officer met this morning with three members of the state auditor's office in Youngstown to discuss how to use the $3.7 million inheritance tax that the township received at the beginning of the year.
"We discussed regulations and any restrictions on how to spend the money," Trustee Heidi Brown said.
According to Brown, the meeting went well and helped clear up any of the trustees' misunderstandings. Brown said she and other trustees had been under the impression that the money had to be spent in five years, but that according to the members of the auditor's office this was not the case.
"We can put it away in a capital improvement fund," Brown said, "but the purchases must last five years."

El Conclusión: San Antonio Spurs 108, Los Angeles Lakers 105
|Tim Duncan, PF 29 MIN | 4-13 FG | 0-0 FT | 7 REB | 5 AST | 8 PTS | +8
Tim Duncan has hit a bit of a lull offensively recently in somewhat of a chicken-before-the-egg debate. The Spurs offense has hit a snag the last three games, and either the lack of precision has cost Duncan the easy looks he uses to supplement his scoring averages and efficiency, or Duncan's struggles have bogged down the Spurs offense some. Probably a little bit of both. The important part is Duncan continues to protect the rim.
|Tiago Splitter, PF 35 MIN | 5-7 FG | 4-4 FT | 14 REB | 0 AST | 14 PTS | -4
Offensively played about as perfect a game as one could expect from Tiago Splitter. He cut hard, finished at the rime, and drew and took advantage of his free throw attempts. Before the game Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said Splitter is "our guy" regardless of the opponent. With the Lakers turning to smaller lineups Splitter was moved away from the basket and taken advantage of a few times, but his offense and rebounding (!) tonight more than made up for it.
|Kawhi Leonard, SF 33 MIN | 4-7 FG | 1-1 FT | 3 REB | 2 AST | 11 PTS | -12
After the game Popovich called Kawhi Leonard the star of the game, praising Leonard for his defense of Kobe Bryant (who shot 10-24). It was the only praise Popovich gave anyone. And indeed few people have ever stayed step-for-step with Bryant in the manner Leonard did tonight. Literally every shot was earned the hard way. Offensively Leonard was efficient with the ball, though perhaps one big corner three-pointer away from supplanting Bruce Bowen as everyone's favorite small forward.
|Tony Parker, PG 35 MIN | 10-16 FG | 4-5 FT | 3 REB | 6 AST | 24 PTS | +1
Tony Parker was efficient in his shot selection, and he really never will struggle to create his own shots against this Lakers team. But afterwards Popovich lamented the overall tempo and precision of the offense and ultimately that falls on the star point guard and his six turnovers.
|Danny Green, SG 18 MIN | 2-4 FG | 0-0 FT | 4 REB | 2 AST | 6 PTS | -4
There were a few moments of hesitation from Green on the offensive end. Though he shot a more-than-respectable percentage he left some shots on the floor on a the Lakers generally ignored him on the defensive end.
|Stephen Jackson, SF 18 MIN | 5-9 FG | 0-0 FT | 2 REB | 1 AST | 14 PTS | +4
A lack of composure nearly cost the Spurs the game, allowing two quick technical fouls and a Kobe Bryant three to cut the Spurs lead in half on one possession. It's a shame because Stephen Jackson essentially put the game away (4-6 from three) before giving it back.
|Boris Diaw, C 27 MIN | 0-2 FG | 0-0 FT | 7 REB | 5 AST | 0 PTS | +12
Worked on the defensive glass, swiped a few steals, and made a number of nice passes.
|Gary Neal, PG 17 MIN | 5-12 FG | 0-0 FT | 0 REB | 0 AST | 12 PTS | -1
Struggled with a few turnovers, which makes what would have been an acceptable 5-12 shooting a less than stellar outing.
|Manu Ginobili, SG 28 MIN | 6-14 FG | 5-6 FT | 8 REB | 4 AST | 19 PTS | +11
Struggled with his three-point shot some tonight but continued his recent trends of getting to the free throw line and rim, dunking twice in the same game for the first time in what feels like an eternity.
|Gregg Popovich
There was no key coaching adjustment tonight. No failing either. The Spurs are simply a better team, which is a result of the season–long process Popovich has implemented. Would say his team struggled to play with the proper tempo and were undoubtedly sloppy tonight. The Spurs are on a bit of a downward trend as of late, so we'll see how he adjusts.
Five Things We Saw
- The Los Angeles Lakers began the game scoring on a couple of Metta World Peace and Kobe Bryant isolation plays while the Spurs earned layups in transition and open shots by working their system. One trend held up just a bit longer than the other.
- On defense Kobe Bryant always seemed to be near the ball, which in this case wasn't necessarily a good thing. He lost his man a few times and put the Lakers' defense in some compromising positions.
- Metta World Peace was the opposite, gathering seven steals–often by simply ripping the ball from the Spurs hands. World Peace was a bit of a problem for the Spurs tonight, which ended up somewhat enjoyable if only because we got to hear Popovich refer to him as World Peace after the game.
- The Lakers' season in a nutshell: Kobe Bryant drains a three-pointer from 30-feet out in Duncan's face–shooting from the "S" in the Spurs halfcourt logo. Then on the ensuing defensive possession he leaves Danny Green wide open for a three-pointer he converted on. Everyone will remember the shooting barrage he went on, almost no one will point out the defensive breakdowns. Moments of individual brilliance offset by the simplest of breakdowns.
- Stephen Jackson is having a terrible shooting year, except on (expletive)-you shots. He's shooting about 70 percent from that range and was 4-6 tonight before his emotions got the better of him and almost cost the Spurs the game.

Bill O'Brien has not spoken publicly yet about his decision to leave Penn State for the NFL, but some explosive comments he made a month ago surfaced late Tuesday night and shed some light on the coach's mindset.
The Patriot-News of Harrisburg, in a story on its website, published comments O'Brien made in anger on Dec. 4. The coach was asked about the possibility of Joe Paterno supporters being upset that O'Brien let longtime linebackers coach Ron Vanderlinden go after this past season.
"You can print this," O'Brien, who had been having an off-the-record conversation with the reporter, said. "You can print that I don't really give a [bleep] what the 'Paterno people' think about what I do with this program. I've done everything I can to show respect to Coach Paterno. Everything in my power. So I could really care less about what the Paterno faction of people, or whatever you call them, think about what I do with the program. I'm tired of it.
"For any 'Paterno person' to have any objection to what I'm doing, it makes me wanna put my fist through this windshield right now."
O'Brien was driving at the time of the conversation.
He then went on to say, "I'm trying to field the most competitive football team I can with near-death penalty [bleeping] sanctions. Every time I say something like that and somebody prints it, it's skewed as an excuse. And I'm not an excuse-maker. I'm trying to do the best I can for the kids in that program. That's all I care about is the kids in that program. As long as I'm the head football coach here."
Which, it now turns out, he is not any longer.
In the same story, O'Brien was asked specifically if he's leaving Penn State.
"I'm not leaving," he replied.
A month later, he changed his mind.

CONGRESS of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) general secretary Zwelinzima Vavi has declined a nomination to the national executive committee (NEC) of the African National Congress (ANC).
Mr Vavi said on Thursday his decision was "for all the old reasons, no new reasons".
He had likewise declined a nomination ahead of the ANC's 2007 elective conference, saying at the time "in the principle that the president and general secretary of a trade union federation like Cosatu should not wear more than one political hat, even within the context of the tripartite alliance".
Cosatu president Sdumo Dlamini on Thursday declined to comment publicly on the nomination process. Mr Dlamini has been nominated by the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal, among others.
Earlier on Thursday, Cosatu released a letter intended for distribution at the ANC's elective conference in Mangaung at the weekend, which called for "greater participation of working-class leadership in ANC structures" as the working class had been "displaced".
Earlier this year, President Jacob Zuma had urged trade unionists not to avoid top leadership positions in the party, suggesting that Cosatu could better influence policy at NEC level if its serving leaders were members.
South African Communist Party (SACP) deputy general secretary Jeremy Cronin also said on Thursday that he would turn down a nomination to serve on the NEC, of which has been a member for almost two decades.
Mr Cronin — who is also the deputy minister of public service and administration — said he had decided to turn down the nomination because he was "overstretched".
"I want to focus more on writing and reading and my government work," he said.

Club 3D HD7970 Royal Ace with Crossfire Review
Up Close
Published: 6th March 2013 | Source: Club 3D | Price: |
Up Close
Regular readers of OC3D, and if you aren't a regular then you should be, will recognise the Club 3D packaging and card style immediately. The box is very classy and we like the combination of matte black with the simple A logo. For a top end GPU the accessories are bland and identical to any other graphics card. Although most free games are ones everyone already has, it doesn't hurt to include one.
The Coolsteam cooler is one of the best looking coolers around, with the black casing housing two PWM fans and the always pretty copper heatpipes. Because of the way that graphics cards fit into motherboards we see far more of the PCB than the cooler, so it's also nice to see that Club 3D have given the Royal Ace a black PCB.
Inputs and outputs are standard for a HD7970, with a 8+6 pin power input, and DVI, HDMI and two mini-DisplayPort outputs.
Everyone likes the look of two cards, and we're no different. No matter how good the performance of twin-GPU cards is, there is no replacement for having two cards filling your case up.

So Johnny Manziel flipped off the Washington Redskins bench. Cue the collective gasp on Twitter.
Bryan Cox has a couple of those for all of y'all. Especially if you're in Buffalo.
So what? The Redskins laughed. Why? Because they knew they were in Manziel's head.
And Cleveland Browns coach Mike Pettine isn't worried that his quarterback got caught flipping the bird on TV as much as he is that an opponent can so easily get in his head.
The rest of us, meanwhile, have a new reason to hate on Johnny Football.
Why do we do that? Why do so many of us so badly want him to fail?
Sure, he's cocky. Arrogant. A loudmouth. A show-off.
There is something in our DNA that despises all of that. We want to see the haughty taken down a peg. It's natural to feel that way. Pride cometh before a fall, we know, and we look every day for it to be proven true.
But aren't sports more interesting with guys like Manziel around? Wouldn't it be boring to have every athlete walking around repeating the same old rehearsed, too-polite lines?
OK, so it's pretty obvious Foster was just punking the media there, but you get the point.
Everybody can't be Peyton Manning. People have different personalities and express themselves in different ways. And behind the helmets, football players are all people.
Behind the flashy nickname and the cash money gestures, Johhny Football is like everyone else in the NFL -- just a guy trying to do his best and earn a living. Sure, he prefers to blow that living in Vegas drinking champagne atop inflatable swans in swimming pools, but what he does with his money is his business. Live and let live.
The point is -- and this is what we always tend to forget -- we don't really know him. We know the public persona of Johnny Manziel, but that's all we know. That doesn't mean it's all an act, but it also doesn't mean that's necessarily all there is.
But it's enough, when see the personalities of athletes come alive on the field or in interviews or on Twitter, that for some reason we feel the need to take them and conveniently toss them into one of two boxes -- hero and villain.
Every good story must have a villain, or at least that's what we've come to expect. To pull for one team, we must pull against another. To love, we for some reason feel that we must also hate. We've got to find somebody to shove.
And that's not really what this song is about, but it's a good song and it made for a good headline:
Of course, if that cocky loudmouth is playing for your favorite team, that changes everything. Then he's a loud, cocky hero.
All this is fine, I suppose -- to a point. Part of the fun of sports is debating the best this and the worst that, and what's going to happen this fall, and what would have happened last fall if only they'd made this call or not thrown that interception. And then feeling good about ourselves when we're proven right.
But too many of us take it too far. When friends can't talk to each other during football season, it's gone too far. When we have to disconnect with long-time friends on social media because they can't be reasoned with, it's gone too far.
When we start wishing injuries and career failure on people we don't know, it's gone too far.
So let's all take a step back, take a deep breath and repeat after me:
My team's performance this season will not affect my life.
It's OK if my team doesn't win the national title or the Super Bowl this year.
It's OK if my team loses to its rival, or if that rival goes on and wins it all.
But they won't. Not this year.

After the earlier topic on obtaining a z/VSE system dump from an LE application failure, its worth discussing
the same functionality, but in a more CICS specific direction. It is possible to use the CICS/TS dump CEMT
commands to get CICS to produce a system dump for specific CICS and LE z/VSE abend codes. There are
times when these are useful and can be a good tool for analysing a failure. But with the more technically
difficult LE abends that may occur they can be taken by CICS too late and be missing vital information
that is needed for a complete analysis.
Since the elimination of 4083 abends under CICS (via APAR PQ15103 in LE/VSE 1.4.0) the main abend codes
that may now occur under CICS that are application failure related are 4038 or 4088 abends. With the
4038 abend the majority of times there will be related messages issued in the CICS output log that
indicate what language run-time issue occurred which can then be corrected and the application
re-executed. With a 4088 abend there will be no such messages. This means that identifying the
language issue or application problem that is responsible for the abend can be a lot more difficult
and involved. Combine this situation with no LE dump produced and most times only a CICS transaction dump
to use for analysis.
Often the most useful dumps for application analysis are those taken as close as possible (with respect
to time) to when the failure occurred. This minimises the modification of important storage areas by
internal abend processing meaning data available in the dump is more reflective of what happened at the
time of the abend rather than partially descriptive of the abend situation and what processing occurred
To aid in gathering both an early and system dump for these LE abends under CICS, a modified version
of the standard CEEUOPT is provided that can be included into applications that are experiencing such
abends under CICS. This modified version is CEEXUOPT.Z and it is available in your LE z/VSE installation
library - usually PRD2.SCEEBASE.
To use this member you need to tailor it to fit your applications specific abend situation. This will
mean changing the ABPERC value to one that fits the abend being experienced by your application. It is
very important that none of the other settings are changed unless you have been instructed to do so by
IBM service personnel. Once you have set the ABPERC option to what you need you and set the target output
library (marked as "yourlib.sublib") you can then tailor the other JCL statements as required for your
specific z/VSE system. Then submit for execution. Once complete a CEEUOPT.OBJ member will be created in
the library you specified.
Next we need to included this special "debugging" version of the CEEUOPT.OBJ into the application that
is experiencing the abend under CICS. To do this you need to at least re-link (a re-complile can be done
but is not needed) the application with the statement "INCLUDE CEEUOPT" as a linkedit JCL directive.
Ensure that the library you stored the debugging version is ahead of the LE z/VSE installation library
(PRD2.SCEEBASE) in any LIBDEF object search chain otherwise the default CEEUOPT.OBJ will be included
and no system dump will be produced. If you use the linkeditor MAP directive you can review the output
and ensure that the CEEUOPT being included was indeed taken from the correct library.
Now that the application has been re-linkedited with the customized version of the debugging CEEUOPT
we need to ensure CICS uses the updated version. You can accomplish this any way you see fit. One
simple way is to use the CEMT S PROG command with the PHASEIN option. If no previous CEEUOPT had
been included in your application you should see an increase in the size reported by CICS when the
CEMT command is complete.
Now you are ready to run the application again. There is no need to set any CICS dump setting to
capture a system dump. Instead LE z/VSE will perform this function when the specified LE abend
occurs again. The combination of options set in the debugging version of the CEEUOPT gives special
instructions to the LE CICS abend interface to produce a z/VSE system dump when the abend specified
on the ABPERC option matches the abend being issued. This allows LE to take the system dump early
in the abend processing stage to minimise the changes to storage from when the abend occurred.
Using the CICS functions would still produce a system dump however this would be taken by CICS
long after both LE and CICS have finished their respective abend processing.
To control the dump produced you can set in your CICS JCL the // OPTION statements that most reflect
where and what level of information you want to be included in the dump produced.
For those applications where it is not possible to re-link with the debugging CEEUOPT version, another
option is available to get a system dump taken early for LE abend codes. Instead you can use the
supplied CLER CICS transaction to dynamically set the same options as included in the CEEXUOPT.Z
member in the CICS system your application is experiencing the abend. Set the ABPERC abend code
just as you would in the CEEXUOPT.Z member and then also change each of the other listed run-time
options from the CEEXUOPT.Z member in the CLER screen. When complete make sure you save the
After you have done that you can run the ROPC CICS transaction to get a console report of the current
LE CICS run-time options. You should see all your over-rides set as per the same run-time options
shown in the CEEXUOPT.Z member.
Once everything is correct you can run the abending application and if the matching abend occurs again
LE will request a z/VSE system dump to be produced.
You may notice in the LE z/VSE documentation that it states the ABPERC run-time option is not
supported under CICS. So why use it here?
This is true and is still correct even when using the CEEXUOPT or the CLER run-time option
transaction. In this situation the ABPERC run-time options behaviour is not used or
supported under CICS. Instead the ABPERC option is used simply as a method of telling LE what
abend code to "watch" for and when a match occurs when the other run-time option settings
have also been made to take a system dump.

Something that is widely misunderstood by many ignorant teenagers, dumb skaters, and clueless punks. Knowledge is power, and the authorities of our time have that power, so instead of being morons who have good intentions but don't know a fucking thing about the polotics behind authority, lets all actually go pick up a book, or become and activist and TAKE DOWN THE FUCKING SYSTEM. All of these cockfucks posting about how we "need authority" are bullshitters and close minded dickheads at best. The only thing we "need" in this world is common sense, and therefore authority won't have to provide us with it. Wake up people, and stop being a dickless puppet of the system that many of you claim to "hate".

Bond set at $2 million for man accused of shooting two Lakewood police officers
LAKEWOOD, Colo. — Bond was set at $2 million on Tuesday for Gordon Moench Jr., the man charged with shooting two Lakewood police officers on Saturday night.
In an arrest affidavit, Moench, 54, allegedly made a 911 call reporting "a guy out front with a gun is ready to kill a bunch of people," then added "I'm the guy with the gun." The affidavit says he was lying in wait with three guns in his pickup truck outside his home.
He later made another 911 call, according to the affidavit, and said, "God I apologize, I hit that cop and now it's too far. … They're going to have to kill me."
After Moench allegedly shot two of the officers, a third officer shot him in the chest near West Jewell Avenue and South Kipling Street shortly before 10 p.m. Saturday.
Moench appeared in a video court appearance before a Jefferson County judge, sitting in a wheelchair. He faces two counts of attempted first-degree murder, two counts of first-degree assault on a police officer and felony menacing involving a weapon.
Moench's stepson says his stepfather was not doing well and might have wanted a way out.
"We didn't even get two minutes into the door and Gordon is going crazy," said Peyton Jackson, the stepson's friend. "Yelling at us. It escalated. Just kept on going how he didn't do his chores."
Jackson says they left but minutes later, police say a woman, who was not inside the home, called police asking officers to check on her husband. She said he threatened violence if officers showed up.
"It sounds to me that these shots — that the suspect fired almost immediately upon the arrival of these two officers," said Steve Davis of the Lakewood Police Department.

A consent order that permanently bans the sale of synthetic drugs or intoxicants in Pavilion International stores has been signed by a State Supreme Court justice, the state Attorney General's Office announced Wednesday.
The order, issued Monday in Erie County by Justice Frederick J. Marshall, dictates that mislabeled or unlabeled products, including intoxicants commonly referred to as synthetic drugs or street drug alternatives, be permanently removed from the shelves of Pavilion International stores on Main Street in Buffalo and Transit Road in Amherst, as well as a downstate location.
Pamo B. Nanwandi, who owns Pavilion International, also must pay $22,000 in penalties.
"The proliferation of synthetic drugs has become a crisis in Erie County, New York State and across the country," said Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman. "The judge's order proves that, by taking a creative approach in using the state's existing labeling laws, we can get swift results to remove dangerous synthetic drugs off store shelves and hold sellers accountable for breaking the law."
State labeling law has numerous requirements for the packaging of consumer commodities, including identifying the name and place of business of the manufacturer.
Marshall's order follows an investigation by Schneiderman's office into head shops statewide. It revealed that those retailers were selling designer drugs, including synthetics known as "bath salts" and "synthetic marijuana."
On July 10, Schneiderman filed 12 lawsuits against 16 head shop locations, including those owned by Pavilion International. Within 36 hours, his office obtained temporary restraining orders, effectively removing the mislabeled products from the shelves.
Monday's order permanently bans Pavilion International from selling synthetic drugs, a Schneiderman spokeswoman said. Other judges have issued similar orders affecting four other retailers in the state.

How to Stop Hurting Yourself
By Draco Malfoy,
Rate this article:
After you have decided it is the time to stop hurting yourself, you need to answer the question of how. There are many different methods to help you in stopping or reducing self-injury behaviors in the short-term- at the time you feel the need or desire to hurt yourself. But, first, it is important to examine some long-term approaches.
"Behaviors, thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations are all linked; each influences the others. Therefore, by changing what happens in one area, you also change what occurs in the others. The ultimate goal is to alter each of these areas enough so that you not only no longer hurt yourself but you also no longer feel the desire or need to hurt yourself."
Changing Your Behaviors
A lot of people think that the best way to change your thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations that are necessary for permanent change is by changing what you do, day to day. To change your daily behaviors, you must first determine the characteristics of your SI actions. This means that to change your self-injurious activities, you have to understand what they are made of. By examining these patterns, creating some ways to change them is made possible.
When you change your behaviors, you change the organization of your thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations. "Changing behaviors is an effective way to produce change in these other areas." This means that by changing the behaviors associated with self-injury you will alter the frequency of and the way in which you engage in hurting yourself. You will also alter some of the fundamental reasons for self-injury.
Time and place
Some people have a particular time of day when they are more likely to engage in self-injury. It is important that you monitor and assess when you are more likely to hurt yourself. If you change the pattern of your activities during these times, you can lessen the chance that you will hurt yourself.
An easy way to change your SI behaviors is the change where you are and who you are with at the times when you are more likely to engage in self-injury. It is important to make up a plan of how, when, and where to change your surroundings. You can control your self-injurious activities by putting yourself in an environment or situation in which you are not likely to hurt yourself. Something important to remember is that this will be more effective if, whenever you can, you put yourself in an environment or situation that is incompatible with self-injury before you have any thoughts or feelings about wanting to hurt yourself. It is much more difficult to change your surrounding when you want to hurt yourself. But this does not mean that is is impossible and you may still be able to find other ways to change your environment or situation.
Getting rid of any instruments that you usually use to hurt yourself is another important change. You should do this before you feel the desire to hurt yourself. If you use a knife, throw it away. Or if you use matches, throw them away. You may not be able to bring yourself to get rid of these objects. In this case, then put them in a box and and hide it under something heavy or difficult to move. Basically, make whatever instruments you usually use to hurt yourself as inaccessible as possible. By doing this you will make it more difficult for you to hurt yourself, which lessens the chance that you will actually do so.
Another way to change your behaviors is to alter the patterns or rituals associated with self-injury. Changing a part of your self-injury ritual will make SI more uncomfortable and less reinforcing for you. The less comfortable you feel when you are hurting yourself, the less likely you are to engage in your self-injurious behavior. Changing your routines also makes you more aware of your surroundings and of your behaviors. This awareness can conflict with dissociation and therefore can reduce self-injury.
There are different ways to change your routine, either adding or removing steps from your ritual, that will help you increase your awareness and prevent self-injury.
Getting Support
It is essential to reduce feelings of isolation and alienation because the desire for self-injury often stems from these feelings. Most people hurt themselves when they are alone. "By creating and using a solid support system and participating in activities with others, your feelings of isolation and alienation decrease." Also, you are less likely to hurt yourself if you place yourself in situations where other people are present.
When you feel the need to hurt yourself, call a friend. Or call more than one friend. Have another person come and sit with you, or go and sit with someone else. Use the support systems you have formed.
Another simple and effective method of changing an unwanted behavior is based on one rule: "Never engage in any activity unless you are able to tell at least two people of your plans." If you are unable to do this, it is more likely that it is not a good thing for you to do. This rule can apply to many things, including self-injury. And if you talk to two different people you are receiving feedback on your planned activity as well as "increasing the behavior that leads to a decrease in negative feelings- you are connecting with others."
Changing Your Thoughts
Another part of ending or reducing self-injurious behavior is to change the thoughts you have regarding them. It is important that you become aware of your thoughts during a session of self-injury so that you can change them. "By drawing attention to these thoughts and beliefs, you will be able to identify and alter the style of thinking that leads you to hurt yourself."
The thoughts that occur before an act of self-injury are largely responsible for your desire and decision to hurt yourself. Because of the power of these thoughts, it is very important that you break this cycle and change your thoughts before you engage in an act of self-injury. When you are able to alter your negative thoughts, you will be less likely to want to hurt yourself."
Challenging Your Thoughts
You most likely have many negative thoughts before you hurt yourself. And it is how you choose to handle these thoughts that determines your moods, physical sensations, and behaviors. You may accept the thoughts that pass through your mind as true, but this is often not the case.
A good way to change your negative thoughts is to challenge their accuracy. Most likely you will find that the majority of your negative thoughts aren't true. It is important that you question each negative thought you have been able to identify.
When you do not stop and think to assess the accuracy of these negative thoughts you usually ask as though these thoughts are true, which in some cases can actually make these thoughts true.
"The neccesity to identify, challenge, and alter each negative thought that you have cannot be denied. Changing your thoughts will help you to change your behaviors, emotions, and physical sensations and will help you to decrease your desires to hurt yourself."
Stopping Your Thoughts
It is better for you to stop or change your negative thoughts than to permit yourself to continue negative and potentially dangerous styles of thoughts.
For people who hurt themselves there are two ways of changing these types of thoughts that have been found to work particularly well. One of these ways is to stop the negative thoughts as they occur. You first must be able to identify these thoughts. "Once you can recognize them, you can stop these thoughts by simply saying Stop!- aloud or in your mind."
It can take some practice and a lot of repetition to make this technique work. But if you are able to get the hang of it, you will find that it does stop negative thoughts in an effective manner. "If you find this technique helpful, you might also try doing this before or during and episode of [SI]."
Reframing your thoughts
Another method of changing negative thought patterns is a bit easier than the one stated above. In this process you can change your negative thoughts into positive ones.
For example:
Negative Thought Positive Thought
"I'm so dumb for hurting myself."
"I did what I needed to do to take care of myself."
"I can't believe I let myself do this again."
"I used the best method possible at that time to cope."
"I have to keep this a secret."
"I can decide who I would like to tell- and not to tell- about this."
Some of these changes in thinking may be subtle, but they allow for a more positive and powerful view of your self-injurious behaviors. "Thoughts that support beliefs about your strength, choice, and optimism provide a foundation for changes in your attitudes, moods, behaviors, and even physical sensations." An essential part of creating a long-tern change in a behavior is identifying and altering the negative thought patterns. The thoughts can be changed by identification, assessment of accuracy, elimination, and rephrasing. Each of these methods will help you change your thoughts and reduce the possibly that you will hurt yourself.
Changing Your Feelings
First, it is important that you realize the difference between change and denial. It is very dangerous to fail to recognize emotions that you are feeling or to pretend that they do not exist. Usually, expressing your emotions and acting on them is a highly effective way of dealing with fellings. Much more effective than pretending that they do not exist or ignoring them.
Feelings have several characteristics that it is important that you know:
- "Feelings often exist for a reason."
- "Feelings are not always logical or easy to understand."
- "Feelings are always transitory. Given enough time, they will change or disappear on their own."
Because of the characteristics of emotions, your goal is not to escape or avoid emotions, but to find better ways to express, accept, and honor your feelings. If you respect and express your feelings, you are better able to enjoy and cultivate them. And expressing the feelings that are troubling you, may allow you to feel "other more satisfying emotions and pursue ways of living that don't require [self-injury]."
Identifying your emotions
The first step you must take to change your emotions is to learn to identify what you are feeling. You may be using self-injury as a way to express or regulate your feelings. But you may be unaware of what emotions produce an episode of self-injury. The ability to identify specific feelings is necessary for attempting to change them.
A lot of people do not know the difference between thoughts and feelings. Feelings can usually be described with a couple of words. Feelings usually fit into the following sentence formats: "I am…" or "I feel…" Sometimes people think they are describing feelings when they are really describing thoughts. You are hearing thoughts when you hear the following key phrases: "I feel that…" or "I feel like…"
Expressing your emotions
Once you have begun learning to identify your emotions the easiest way to change them is by expressing them. Feelings are hard to ignore but if you express them, they will be satisfied.
Each feeling has its own method of expression. And it will take a lot of practice and patience to find the match between your feelings and the best way to express them.
The majority of the feelings you have will require some type of physical release. Crying is an simple example of this release. "Our bodies have built-in coping mechanisms that respond to our emotions. However, many of us have been conditioned not to use these physical outlets. It is important that you relearn how to identify and respond to your body's natural needs." Learning to identify and express your feelings will gradually cause your feelings to change. And this change will allow you to feel more content and resolved. But, withholding, denying, or avoiding your feelings will increase the chances of wanting to hurt yourself.
Self-injury may have been your way of releasing your emotions. And while in the past this may have been effective and neccessary, you may find that other ways of expressing your emotions work just as good and have less negative consequences.
Changing Your Physical Sensations
The body and mind affect each other. Physical problems affect psychological problems, and vice versa. The way in which you treat your body affects your psychological health, so when you hurt yourself, you are also hurting your psychological health. But if you take care of your body, your psychological health will profit.
You can train your body to produce different physical behaviors and sensations. Before you hurt yourself you most likely feel a great state of tenstion. And at this time it may seem that SI is the best or only way to reduce this tension. But there are other options that will produce similar results and are les physically damaging.
And, of course, the first step in changing physical sensations is to identify what you are feeling on the physical level. You need to do this before, during, and after you hurt yourself. And not only try to identify what you are feeling, but also where on your body you are feeling it.
A simple way to change your physical sensations is to exercise. Exercising increases your heart rate and changes other physical patterns such as respiration, digestion, and blood flow. It can also alter the exchange of neurotransmitters in your brain. These chemical neurotransmitters in your brain influence your physical experience. They can cause you to feel sleepy, or energized or may allow you to think more clearly.
During self-injury the brain releases endorphins, whose effects are similar to that of morphine. Usually endorphins decrease the sensation of pain. During self-injury, endorphins are released so that you do not feel the pain related to hurting yourself. The endorphins can also cause pleasant physical sensations.
Like self-injury, exercise can also produce endorphins, and it is much less dangerous and destructive. By exercising vigorously instead of hurting yourself, you can achieve similar psychological effects as well as obtaining beneficial physical results.
Everybody has different ways in which they like to exercise. We enjoy some types of exercise more than others. And it is important that you identify the type of physical exercise you enjoy as well as how convenient or accessible they are to you. If you do not live near the mountains it can be difficult for you to go mountain-climbing. Or if you enjoy deep-sea diving, it may be difficult for you to engage in this if you don't live near water. Try to think of as many options as you can that will allow you to exercise when you feel the urge to hurt yourself.

The leading U.S. Catholic bishop has called on President Barack Obama to protect Iraqi Christians from attacks from Islamic militants.
Al Qaeda gunmen killed 58 worshippers and wounded 75 more in an attack during worship services at the Syrian Catholic cathedral in Baghdad on October 31. In addition, Christian neighborhoods in Iraq have been blasted this week by roadside bombs and mortar shells, killing at least five people.
"Having invaded Iraq, our nation has a moral obligation not to abandon those Iraqis who cannot defend themselves," Cardinal Francis George of Chicago, the head of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, wrote in a letter to the White House.
At their meeting in Baltimore, Md., George told his fellow bishops the desperate plight of Iraqi Christians is a tragic consequence of America's 2003 invasion.
National Security Council Spokesman Mike Hammer condemned the attacks and says that the U.S. will help the Iraqi government "intensify its efforts to protect all Iraqi citizens, including vulnerable religious minorities."
Christians make up less than 3 percent of the Iraqi population.The majority of the population is Muslim.

Watercooler Talk
MARIETTA, Ohio (AP) - Police said whoever donated a water jug to a charity in southeast Ohio probably didn't mean to be so generous. The jug contained about $1,500 worth of marijuana. Police said workers at a local Goodwill Industries site recently found four bags of marijuana when they looked inside a water jug left outside by an anonymous donor.
They turned the two-gallon metal jug and the pound or so of marijuana over to police on Friday.
Marietta police Capt. Jeff Waite said the jug is probably an antique. He said authorities would be more than happy for the jug's donor to come forward and claim it.

This is a well-written booklet, but, unfortunately, it is all too limited a discussion of a complicated subject. The author deals briefly with the etiology, pathology, and diagnosis of the disease and has a good section on the treatment of diabetic acidosis and coma. Juvenile diabetes, surgical conditions, hygiene, and pregnancy are touched upon as well as the use of the various insulins. Diet charts are included in the longest section, on treatment of uncomplicated adult diabetes.
In the author's own words, the work is meant only as a "guide to the clinician in the treatment of diabetes." It is not intended as an original work, and there is no bibliography. Newer concepts of insulin usage are not included. In spite of its brevity, there is an abundance of sound advice. John C. Farmer, M.D.

From MPR News reporter Tom Robertson:
As news broke in St. Paul today around a potential end to the government shutdown stalemate, anglers enjoyed a day on Lake Bemidji, and some were fishing without a license.
The state Department of Natural Resources made clear Wednesday that its officers would not cutting anglers any slack for not having a valid fishing license, even though the shutdown made it impossible to buy one.
But out-of-state visitors I spoke with at a public boat landing on Lake Bemidji are determined to fish -- with our without a license.
"I'd hoped that the shutdown would have been over so I could have purchased my license online before I came here for vacation," said one man, from Madison, Wis.
The man didn't want to give his name because he knew he was breaking the law by fishing without a license.
"I guess I'll take my chances," he said. "I came 500 miles to get here, so I'll get the license as soon as they're able to sell me one. For now, I'll go ahead and fish."
I talked to other groups of anglers -- from Iowa and Indiana -- who said they had their licenses, but would have fished without one if they had to.
It's still unclear just how hard local DNR officers are working to check for valid fishing licenses. With the department's statewide staffing levels down to just over 200 because of the shutdown, the officers are likely stretched pretty thin.
None of the folks I talked with had run into DNR conservation officers on Lake Bemidji or any of the other lakes they'd visited this week.
On MPR's Morning Edition program this morning, one Ely-based outfitter told host Cathy Wurzer that he hadn't run across anyone who'd been tagged for fishing without a license. Earlier this week, the Crow Wing county attorney said his office had not seen any license violation citations referred by the conservation officers since the shutdown began July 1.
Perhaps the conservation officers have their hands full without worrying about whether a family from Iowa purchases a fishing license. They've been charged with keeping an eye on Minnesota's shuttered state parks and are doing their best to make sure boaters are checking their boats for invasive species.
One Bemidji area conservation officer told me he's been running ragged since the start of the shutdown. Like everyone else, he is anxious for leaders in St. Paul to solve the two-week old budget impasse.
