"Alias" star Jennifer Garner is crediting a trip to Hawaii and a visit to her parents in West Virginia in helping her get through her recent split from her husband, actor Scott Foley.
Speaking to TV's "Access Hollywood," the actress, 31, revealed, "I have such great girlfriends, and I was able to go away with them to Hawaii for almost a week, and I went home to my parents in West Virginia for a week, so I had a nice time away."
In divorce papers filed by Garner in Los Angeles Superior Court on May 9, the actress cited irreconcilable differences but offered no other reason for the breakup.
The papers, do, however, cite the couple's date of separation as March 23 -- the day of the Oscars. That night, Garner (who served as a presenter for the ceremony) showed up without Foley and had a female pal as her date.
On April 1, the couple announced that they had mutually decided to separate.
The couple met in 1998 on the set of "Felicity," the WB drama in which Foley costarred. They married in 2000, and Garner's star has been on the rise ever since.
Besides her breakthrough, butt-kicking role as spy Sydney Bristow on ABC's "Alias," she was recently seen costarring with Ben Affleck in "Daredevil" and briefly opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in "Catch Me If You Can."
Foley, meanwhile, starred in the short-lived NBC comedy "A.U.S.A."
While speaking to "Access Hollywood," Garner also managed to get in a plug for her new movie, "13 Going on 30."
"It's like 'Big' in many ways, but it makes me nervous to say that because Tom Hanks was so brilliant, and it's such an incredible, beautiful movie that to compare myself to him is nerve-racking," she said.

A week has passed since the flare up over the initial 'Ten Tips for Young Occultists' debacle with many prominent and up and coming occultists putting their own lists up. I think by and large this has been a valuable exercise and in some ways shows where many contemporary occultists are coming from.
About mid-way through the week, Ultraculture posted another interesting list titled, '3 Ways to Become a Magician by a 16th Century Alchemist' based on suggestions by Giambattista della Porta. This article struck me in particular as it could have just as well have been my own list as well. Brother B.J. recently put up his own commentary on the same which I highly recommend. In keeping, however, with the 'Ten Tip' trend, I present now my own list in that form.
1. First, the candidate ought to have familiarity with the Liberal Arts:
While this may come off as a particularly classist statement, I do believe that having a foundational education in the liberal arts is essential to being able to understand from where our historical predecessors were coming. I'm not saying that an individual necessarily needs a bachelor's degree in liberal arts, but merely be acquainted with them. Historically this would have included the verbal arts: grammar, logic, and rhetoric; and in the quadrivium—the numerical arts: arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy (I would also add here biology as well as chemistry). While I would never persuade someone from going to college, the reality is, is that that's not always possible. Good news! However expensive going to college may be, the aspiring candidate has a world of resources at their fingertips whether it be simply going to the local public library or enrolling in online classes such as those found at Wikiversity.
2. Secondly, know thyself:
The famous magician Israel Regardie, himself a therapist, insisted on the necessity of psychotherapy for candidates as well as students of the occult. While this would be great for everyone to have access to, sadly it is not always the case. The candidate should be able to know their limits, be able to set boundaries, as well as know their own personal integrity. Many people come to the occult as a form of escapism and end up getting overwhelmed. Having a strong, but flexible idea of who the candidate is him or herself will set a very powerful stage for being a great student.
3. Thirdly, should familiarize themselves with warning signs:
There are a lot of unscrupulous charlatans out there hoping to make a quick buck or engage in a power play – there are also a lot of very knowledgeable people out there who can really take you to the next level even if it's your first step. In my previous post I pointed out the Bonewits' Cult Danger Evaluation Form as one possible tool to use in identifying potential dangers. Other possibilities when the candidate is ready would be to find magical forums on the intranet or other social media. There they can get to know who's recommended and who to avoid. As always, caveat emptor! A good teacher should be able to provide a statement of principles and expectations.
4. Fourthly, the candidate should not be afraid to speak and communicate:
While this should go without commentary, the reality is, is that many students feel overwhelmed either by the personality of their teacher or by the unfamiliarity of the world into which they have just been cast. This is entirely understandable, but that should not preclude them from being able to ask questions as well as occasionally contradicting their teacher in a respectful manner that generates dialogue. In this, questioning is also a form of communication. Never accept "it's just always been this way" as an answer until your teacher provides you a comprehensive bibliography where they're coming from and what they know.
5. Fifthly, the candidate should strive for excellence and expect the same from their teacher and peers:
While everyone has their own unique learning and teaching styles, the candidate shouldn't be content sitting on their or their teachers' laurels. Arete, in its basic sense, means "excellence of any kind". The term may also refer to "moral virtue" as well and is ultimately bound up with the notion of the the act of living up to one's full potential. Here, studying virtue ethicists, aesthetic and moral philosophy as well as the classics as a continuation of the first suggestion may be of help. While we may study what is "hidden" it is equally important that we realize that we don't just stand on the shoulders of giants, but should bravely go forth with their knowledge and take this knowledge to the next level.
6. Sixthly, the candidate should be mindful of what they project on their teacher and peers:
As eloquently stated by Mr. Hillier in his work, "All beings project their minds on to the world, your teacher included, its a rule of consciousness and part of what we are exploring." It's very easy to fail to notice this and, in relation to part two, it's the student and teacher's obligation to be able to see when this is happening. A number of years ago, a wonderful essay titled 'Magusitis: A Hydra in Sheep's Clothing' was written giving the warning signs and symptoms of this particularly strange phenomena – this article may well be of use for both personal reflection as well as striving for the excellence of both teacher and peers and be engaged in contributing the process in an equal and dynamic way.
7. Seventh, the candidate should not be afraid of making mistakes:
Magic can very quickly become competitive – that's the nature of the beast. A good teacher will provide foundational exercises that will ground and balance the candidate in their tutelage – this may be in the form of a number of types of meditation, purification, prayer, et cetera. As often quoted in Buddhist Lojong manuals: "practice the preliminaries". This will give you a little bit of extra padding should something go wrong and the knowledgable teacher will recognize when it has and be able to assist in some way. Nobody comes out of this unscathed or slightly burnt.
8. Eighth, the candidate should exercise their imagination:
The 20th Century occultist, Aleister Crowley, defined magic as "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will". Whereas above I have suggested highly technical suggestions of study, the candidate will be working with a very broad set of symbols eventually which will require creativity. Whether one is predisposed toward poetry, dance, music or the visual arts; the candidate should strive to seek beauty and the truth that lies within it. Maybe they like cooking: they can examine the magical applications of ingredients and apply it; maybe they like art: they can try a new mode of painting or drawing; maybe they're not artistic at all: perhaps taking a trip to the museum or an art gallery or reading about cross cultural art theories may help them.
9. Ninth, the candidate should cultivate awareness that the map is not the territory:
This concept occurs in the discussion of exoteric and esoteric religions. Exoteric concepts are concepts which can be fully conveyed using descriptors and language constructs, such as mathematics. Esoteric concepts are concepts which cannot be fully conveyed except by direct experience. For example, a person who has never tasted an apple or made love will never fully understand through language what the taste of an apple is or the feeling of skin against skin in intimate embrace. Only through direct experience (eating an apple or making love) can that experience be fully understood. It's all too easy to confuse abstracts such as numbers in resulting from gematria for concrete realities.
10. Tenth, the candidate shall not neglect their own physical needs:
Many disciplines in the esoteric and occult community tend to generate a lot of mental and spiritual energy. A good teacher will prepare the student by admonishing them to pay attention to their physical needs; eat well according to their means, get adequate sleep, exercise if possible, perhaps learn some form of budgeting so they'll be able in the future afford a more comfortable life, and lastly ground their work in the physical reality in which they live.
In closing, I understand that much of this may seem like a handful to apply all at once. I'm personally of the school of thought now that I'm a little older and have definitely done made my fair share of mistakes as well as my fair share of successes that practicing magic isn't something that comes out of a box, but rather is cultivated carefully as one might cultivate a topiary or bonsai. The better our foundations are in the real world, the better our successes will become as we advance along the path. All teachers started out as students and all teachers are still students learning now in their own way and this itself is part of the mystery of engaging in the Mysteries themselves.

Can You Help?? Mother Searching for Samaritan Who Saved Her Toddler's LifeSerge Bielanko
A North Carolina woman really wants to thank a stranger for giving her the greatest gift possible when she saved her daughter's life.
Maybe you can help.
According to a piece in today's Charlotte Observer, mom, Jill Fowler, was driving with her 3-year-old daughter, Mia, along a busy Interstate 277 one day last week when every parent's nightmare began to unfold in the backseat.
Mia, who has a severe nut allergy, was in her car seat eating a vegan cookie (that listed no dangerous ingredients) when she suddenly began to show signs of a serious allergic reaction.
"She started saying that the cookie was spicy," Fowler told the Observer. "She was talking funny a little and acting a little weird. Mia started crying, and I looked back, and she was drooling….And she started throwing up."
That's when the very pregnant mom did what she had to do. Unable to get to an exit ramp in all of the rush hour traffic despite her efforts, Fowler finally just slammed her car into park right there on the highway, put on her flashers, and risked her own safety to run around to assist her daughter who was quickly showing the signs of irregular breathing.
The Observer notes that Mia's mom carries two EpiPens with her all of the time, but in the chaos of the moment, she couldn't manage to get the cap off the first one correctly.
Time was running out for Mia.
Her mother was understandably panicked.
That's when several motorists noticed the events unfolding in the roadway and stopped to help, one calling 911. As Mia's mom watched her daughter getting sicker, she knew that her first EpiPen injection wasn't working.
A woman who had stopped asked Fowler if she wanted her to apply the second and last EpiPen to Mia. Fowler said yes and, as the Charlotte Observer piece recounts, "The woman read the instructions on the EpiPen, then Fowler held Mia down while the woman injected the girl."
As the newspaper tells it, a few harrowing minutes went by as they waited for emergency responders to arrive, and by the time they did, little Mia was crying.
And crying means breathing.
In the confusion and shock of it all though, Jill Fowler wasn't able to thank that woman who took the time to stop in the middle of a busy highway to see if she could help; a woman who ended up saving a child's life.
Maybe, if we pass this account around, to folks in the immediate Charlotte area and beyond, someone somewhere might be able to help find this good samaritan.
After all, she has probably has a couple really big hugs coming her way.
Can You Help???
The Charlotte Observer has a phone number to call if you have any information that could help Mia and her mom find the woman who helped them. To reach Jill Fowler, contact staff writer Cleve R. Wootson Jr. at 704-358-5046

Iowa CITY, Iowa - The cheers rained down on seniors Matt Gatens and Bruce Cartwright as they exited in the closing seconds of Tuesday's game. The Carver-Hawkeye Arena crowd showed its appreciation for the senior starters in their final home game.
Awaiting them on the bench was their much-less-heralded classmate, Andrew Brommer. The applause wasn't directed at him, but he should have been included.
The Minnesota native persevered through four years of downs with only a senior season of ups. His value to the turnaround could not be measured in minutes played, points or rebounds.
Brommer makes players better in practice. More importantly, he advises young teammates on and off the floor. He's a soundboard. He's big brother. He's a support system.
"He comes to work every day," freshman Aaron White said. "He's a good leader on and off the floor. He sets a good example for the young guys. He never takes a play off and he's working hard in practice.
"Even if he's not getting the minutes he wants, that doesn't affect what he does on the practice floor."
White said Brommer's leadership and tenacity in workouts have been invaluable for he and sophomore posts, Melsahn Basabe and Zach McCabe.
"He's bigger and stronger than us," said White, who scored a career-high 25 points in Tuesday first-round NIT win against Dayton. "You go against a a 6-9 guy who's 260 in practice and you know what you're going to see in games."
We read about guys leaving programs often these days. They're unhappy with playing time or the head coach. They're not getting what they feel is a fair shake.
Then, there's Brommer. He busts it when he gets his chance in games. He applauds young guys taking his minutes.
"He's adjusted to his role and how the new guys are playing and he doesn't complain," sophomore guard Devyn Marble said. "He comes into the game and gives us a lot of energy and solid minutes."
Brommer and Gatens are the only current Hawkeyes to play four seasons with the program as Cartwright is a junior college transfer. Their first two years with Todd Lickliter as coach rank among the worst in program history.
When it appeared Lickliter was going to be fired while the team was at the Big Ten Tournament two years ago, Brommer sat in front of his locker in support of the coach. When Fran McCaffery was hired a few weeks later, the big man backed the move.
You see, Brommer respects the coach. Even more, he loves the university and wants what's best for it.
Brommer did his best to help classmate and good friend, Aaron Fuller, adjust to Iowa City after coming from Arizona. He also worked hard to keep Fuller from transferring to USC without success.
It's loyalty to friends and school that make Brommer an important building block in the recent rebirth of Iowa basketball.
"He's such a nice kid. He genuine," Basabe said. "I've always enjoyed being around him since I got here. He's the ultimate when it comes to attitude. He's always positive.
"He going to be successful in life even if it's not basketball. He also has more basketball talent than people are aware of."
Injuries have slowed Brommer this season. That opened the door early for the younger guys to suck up his minutes and prove themselves.
He's fine with it.
"It's definitely special," Brommer said. "I love being in the postseason. It's definitely an honor. Words can't describe it because it was so down (earlier in his career).
"This is a huge bright spot for us. We're just going to continue to play our hearts out and keep it rolling."
Brommer will do his part to continue the ride. It's the only way he knows to carry himself.

[[caption-width-right:350:"[[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} Anyone want to play Dungeons & Dragons for the next quadrillion years?]]"]]
->''"Greetings! It's a-- ''(rolls two ten-sided dice)'' '''pleasure''' to meet you!"''
-->-- '''Gary Gygax''' [[AsHimself (voicing himself)]], ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'', "Anthology of Interest"
Ah, good old '''Ernest Gary Gygax''' (July 27, 1938 -- March 4, 2008). Where would we be without thee? Probably somewhere else, given the sheer different forms of media (and with them, a very large number of tropes) that originated from his work.
Back in the day, there were no [[TabletopRPG Role-Playing Games]]. None. Only [[WarGaming tabletop war games]]. Gygax didn't like that at all, so he asked his friend Dave Arneson to make one. Arneson rewrote all of the rules to ''Chainmail'', a system that Gygax and the local shop owner Jeff Perren had developed, to create ''Blackmoor'', the first tabletop RPG. Gygax then, along with Arneson, worked to expand this from a simple add-on to ''Chainmail'' to its own system entirely. And thus, ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' was born.
TSR Inc. flourished off of the game, leading to multiple game modules, many alternate universes (TabletopGame/{{Greyhawk}}, TabletopGame/{{Planescape}}, TabletopGame/DarkSun, TabletopGame/ForgottenRealms, Literature/{{Dragonlance}}, TabletopGame/{{Eberron}}...), eventually even a [[WesternAnimation/DungeonsAndDragons cartoon adaptation]] and [[Film/DungeonsAndDragons a few movies]]. However, eventually TSR fell under new management, causing him to leave the company. He continued to work on new tabletop [=RPG=]s and write novels afterwards, and remained affiliated with his original creation all his life. In March of 2008, Gygax died at the age of 69, and gamers the world over lost their saving throw against mourning.
Depending on who you ask, Gygax may be considered to be [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation one of four things]]:
# [[CreatorWorship The god of gaming made flesh]]. [[invoked]]
# A genius who is effectively the father of modern role-playing.
# A [[TabletopGame/TombOfHorrors sadistic]] and [[TabletopGame/TempleOfElementalEvil crazy]] man who liked watching people squirm.
# All of the above.
!!Media in which Gygax appears in some form or another includes:
* Gary Gygax has been referenced in many ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' products, with many things named after him as an homage.
** The BonusBoss of ''VideoGame/BaldursGate 2'' is named Kangaxx. And, while not based on D&D anymore, ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' featured a BonusBoss Gaxkang, who's a reference to both Kangaxx and Gygax.
** The ring of Gaxx, a recurring artifact.
** Zagyg, the god of Humor, Ocultism and unpredictability, was named after him. By himself.
** The city of Gryrax in TabletopGame/{{Greyhawk}} is named for him.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''
** As the page quote indicates, he [[SpecialGuest voiced himself in one episode]].
** In "Fry Am the Egg Man", an ancient tome titled the Gygaxicon is used.
** The ''Futurama'' movie ''Bender's Game'', which references ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' heavily is dedicated to him. Gary Gygax died while the movie was in production.
* He also [[SpecialGuest voiced himself]] in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/CodeMonkeys''.
* A few [[InMemoriam tribute to his death]] in webcomics:
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0536.html "A Brief Tribute"]] in ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick''. (Warning: [[TearJerker Prepare some kleenex]] just in case you're a sensitive or sentimental person; [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming It's that kind of strip.]])
** [[ChessWithDeath RPGing with Death]] in [[http://xkcd.com/393/ a strip]] of ''Webcomic/{{xkcd}}''.
** And a ''Webcomic/DorkTower'' [[http://www.dorktower.com/2008/03/05/ tribute comic]].
* ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'' tipped its hat to him in the episode "D&DD", with Dexter's GodModeSue character being named "Gygax".
* He's the DM/narrator for a series of quests in ''VideoGame/DungeonsAndDragonsOnline''.
* A strain of bacteria was named in honor of Gygax, "Arthronema gygaxiana sp nov [=UTCC393=]".
* Creator/BlizzardEntertainment dedicated the 2.4.0 patch of ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'', "Fury of the Sunwell", to Gygax.
* ''Script/AHDotComTheSeries'' dedicated two episodes to Gary Gygax, who in one of the alternate Earths has managed to transform the entire planet into a LARP, with the characters taking the place of RPG characters.
* ''TabletopGame/{{Pathfinder}}'' features a prominent NPC named after Gygax -- Lord Gyr of Gixx, the ruler of Absalom, the City at the Center of the World.
* In ''WebVideo/AcquisitionsIncorporated'', Gygax is the name of the Darkmagic family's cat, [[spoiler:who turns out to be TheMole for the rival family and the BigBad of season 5]].

Picking Grammys in a year without a front-runner
I do a pretty decent job of predicting the Oscar winners each year. But while I cover music for a living, when it comes to predicting the Grammys, I've never wagered any money.
That's because the Grammys are notoriously difficult to predict - except in a year where there's one clear dominating artist, like Adele, who collected multiple golden gramophones last year for her work on her mega blockbuster album "21." »Read Full Article

Soulstice Theatre delivers shimmering 'Memory of Water'
Coming from north by northwest, take I-794 to Howard Ave. Make two quick lefts and you've arrived at the St. Francis-based digs of Soulstice Theatre, home to a tiny, gutsy troupe which - when the stars align, as they often do - offers a night out that can rival much of what's available downtown, at half the price.
The constellation appearing on the Soulstice stage right now - in a production of Shelagh Stephenson's "The Memory of Water," under David Ferrie's direction - is definitely worth the trip. »Read Full Article
Next Act's 'Irma Vep' haunted by earlier version
In the second act of Charles Ludlam's madcap "The Mystery of Irma Vep," now on stage at Next Act Theatre, a frightened Lady Enid (a cross-dressed John McGivern) turns to housekeeper Jane Twisden (a cross-dressed Norman Moses) and pines for the protective presence of Nicodemus, her faithful manservant.
With the twitch of a smile and a twinkle in his eye, Moses' ordinarily prim Jane make clear that calling Nicodemus on stage just then simply isn't possible. »Read Full Article(1)

Russell, the former Williamson High School and LSU star, was arrested on July 5 after investigators found one bottle of codeine syrup during a search of his River Forest Drive home by the Mobile County Sheriff's Office's undercover narcotics team. Investigators said Russell did not have a prescription for the opiate.
Here's what al.com readers are saying about the story:
"Looking at the pictures, he looks like a rock star having the time of his life. I wonder how many children are looking at this and visualizing him as their hero." -jarhaid
"Good luck JaMarcus. I guess 30 million dollars would make anyone a little lazy. Please don't wind up like Keith McCants. That's not rain your feeling it's teardrops from ya Uncle Ray Ray." -echofree
"Good luck to you Mr. Russell. I see no need for anyone to be arrested and prosecuted for ingesting any substance so long as they have not harmed anyone else or denied anyone else their pursuit of life, liberty, happiness or property in the process. Where is the harm? Where is the victim? It's amazing that people of the South worship football, a brutal sport that causes lots of injuries, but have no sympathy for the players who suffer long after the game is over." -lorettanall
"A government that respected the public interest would allow a dope to do
his dope, provided he caused no harm to anyone else, and incurred no
health-care obligations to the taxpayers. Empty the prisons of the drug
users, put the street gangs out of business, remove a huge corrupting
influence from government and police (the 'war on drugs' is an expensive
failure), and then make available lots of prison space to house the
robbers, thieves, rapists, etc. Add in some quarries where hardcore
criminals can break rocks in the hot sun, from dawn till dusk, and watch
our quality of life soar." -TVC15

text: Explore Sharqiya The Muscat–Sur coastal road South from Muscat: the inland route Masirah Island Al Wusta Share Some 4km south of the turn-off for Fins, brown signs point inland to the ancient tombs of Jaylah (or Gaylah) and the village of Quran. This is one of the most memorable drives in Sharqiya, a spectacular off-road traverse of the barren uplands at the top of the Eastern Hajar with a cluster of wonderfully atmospheric Bronze Age beehive tombs en route. The track also offers a convenient short cut from the coast to Ibra, although it's probably no quicker than taking the main road through Sur. The route comprises about 50km of generally good graded track, but there are some pretty rough, and sometimes extremely steep, sections here and there – 4WD is essential, as are strong nerves if you're driving yourself. The route begins by switchbacking vertiginously up the flanks of the Eastern Hajar, a breathless thirty-minute drive with increasingly spectacular views down to the coast below. At the top, you reach the sere Salma Plateau at the summit of the Eastern Hajar: a rolling expanse of gravel plain, dotted with only the sparsest of vegetation. There's virtually no sign of human habitation until you reach tiny Quran, one of the loneliest villages in Oman – little more than a haphazard cluster of houses tucked away in the lee of cliff, and feeling an awfully long way from anywhere.

How much do breasts weigh?
Asked by anonymous on Oct 08, 2009
in Weight Loss
Okay, I've always wanted to know: How much do my 34D breasts weigh?
Breast weight depends not only on size but also on the amount of dense tissue compared to fatty tissue in each breast. I have seen reference to a series of measurements to calculate breast volume and weight in "The Bra Maker's Handbook" by Stephanie Williams. She says a size 34DD breast weighs about 3.0- 3.5 pounds depending on the density, and so your 34Ds probably weigh 2.5-3.0 pounds each. If you'd like to weigh your breasts, use this water displacement method outlined by British style gurus, Trinny and Susannah.

Authorities said a drunken couple were arrested and charged with public intoxication after they staggered into the Laurel County Sheriff's Office.
The Lexington Herald-Leader reported 45-year-old Jeffery Messer and 36-year-old Felicia West showed up at the sheriff's office about 2 p.m. on Friday. The sheriff's office said in a news release that two officers who were in the back filling out reports came out into the lobby and determined that the two were "obviously intoxicated."
They charged them also with possessing a controlled substance outside of its original container. Messer had prescription pills in a paper wrapper and West had pills in a baggie. They were taken to the Laurel County jail.

ARMY CHOPPER PILOT JOSEPH de Garay, his left foot amputated after a truck had crushed it, was brooding in bed at Walter Reed Medical Center in Washington when a stranger marched into his room and threw a foot up onto the mattress. Before de Garay could object, the man pulled back his pant leg to reveal a gunmetal-gray prosthesis. De Garay was startled—right out of his self-pity, as it turned out. "When Dana walked into my room, well, it was definitely an uplift," he says.
Army Sgt. First Class Dana Bowman, 33, is a one-man mission of mercy. Seventeen months ago his legs were sheared off in a skydiving collision that killed his best friend. After rehabilitating himself in less than five months, he has become not only the military's first-ever double amputee on active duty but a veritable ambassador of inspiration. In the past 12 months, Bowman, the father of a 10-year-old, Austin, has traveled from his base at Fort Bragg, N.C., to visit survivors of a midair collision at a nearby base, soldiers wounded in Somalia, even victims of inner-city shootings. Wherever he goes he conveys a singular message: "What I've done, you can do." "Dana Bowman embodies the kind of spirit that just won't quit," says Lt. Col. Danny Greene, commander of Bowman's unit, the Army's Golden Knights parachute team. "He is truly a remarkable person."
One of the more remarkable things about him is that he is alive. On Feb. 6, 1994, Bowman was with the Knights in Yuma, Ariz., practicing for one of their 300 annual skydiving shows. He and his friend and longtime partner Jose Aguillon, 23, strapped smoke canisters to their ankles and jumped from opposite sides of a plane at 12,500 feet—a trick known as the Diamond Track that they had performed 50 times before. But instead of crisscrossing beneath the plane with 30 feet between them, the two men, each traveling at 150 mph, collided. Bowman's legs were severed by the impact. Their chutes opened, but Bowman awakened in the hospital to learn that he had lost his right leg above the knee and his left leg just below it and that massive internal injuries had claimed his friend.
For days, Bowman's emotions ricocheted between anger and denial. "I felt everything had been ripped out from under me," he recalls. He soon began to realize that he would spiral into a self-destructive depression if he did not take control. As he studied the tangle of sheets where his legs should have been, his military stoicism nudged him beyond despair. "It was then," he says, "that I knew I wouldn't call myself disabled."
Lunging into a punishing program of recovery, he wore out four pairs of prostheses in six weeks. Frustrated with the plastic devices he had been issued, he spent six months designing his own lightweight chassis of titanium "bones" and carbon-fiber "tendons" (at an eventual cost to the Army of $250,000). "I absolutely had my own personal deadlines," he says. As his strength grew, so did his reputation as a cheerleader for other wounded soldiers. "He was just a real spark plug," says Army Under Secretary Joe Reeder, who visited Bowman in the hospital. "His accident would have brought most people down." Not Bowman. Last November he re-enlisted—Bowman-style. He took his oath airborne, his pant legs rolled up to expose his hardware.
"He's always been one of those go-go types," says his mother, Donna Bowman, 52, a retired health-care worker. "I always told him if you want to do something bad enough, you can." Bowman, the second-oldest of five children—their father, Norman, 54, is a retired Ford Motor plant electrician—grew up in North Ridgeville, Ohio, and enlisted in the Army in 1981, serving in the 1983 Grenada conflict and the 1989 invasion of Panama, where he earned a Bronze Star for valor. In 1993 he fulfilled his dream of joining the Golden Knights.
Since the accident, he has faced further challenges. Two months after Bowman lost his legs, his wife of four months, Andrea, left him. "She told me that she stopped loving me the day I had my accident," Bowman says. Still he manages to find solace in his counseling and in his active lifestyle, which includes skiing, skydiving and even country line-dancing. "I have plenty of reason to live," he says. "If I fall, I'll get back up. I do every time."

CHICOPEE – Debates about how much to raise the tax levy and if the tax burden should be switched to benefit businesses more will continue next week.
The City Council last week put off setting the tax rate after hearing the average business tax increase would be about $1,621. Homeowners would expect tax bills to drop by an average of $2.
A second meeting to set the tax rate is tentatively scheduled for Oct. 10.
Mayor Michael D. Bissonnette had proposed raising the entire tax levy from the current $65.8 million to $70.4 million, which is $700,000 less than the possible $71.1 million allowed under the Proposition 2 ½ law, which limits communities to raising its levy by no more than 2.5 percent.
He recommended the council put $1.3 million of the amount raised in taxes into the reserve fund. The rest of the money would be used to pay for operating expenses.
"It is a difficult year and we are telling the public we are putting money in reserve," Councilor James K. Tillotson said.
Bissonnette said he will compromise on his proposal but wants to raise the tax rate enough to beef up the reserve account to pay for upcoming expenses including buying new equipment.
"I want some feedback. I'm happy to compromise. I'm not married to the $1.3 million," he said.
But Bissonnette said the City Council should put at least $800,000 into stabilization to fund desperately needed vehicles.
After listening to business owners air concerns about the increasing taxes last week, the council asked the Board of Assessors to figure out how the tax rate would affect homeowners and businesses if less money was put into the reserve account or the tax levy was increased by less.
Bissonnette said he would not support increasing the tax levy by less than $69.8 million.
He warned the council the main reason taxes will be less than the Proposition 2 ½ limit is because the city will receive about $2.5 in new taxes from electrical infrastructure built last year through the Greater Springfield Reliability Project. The value of that equipment will decrease by 20 percent annually.
"This will be a five-year windfall and it is gone," he said.
The City Council has also discussed lifting the burden on businesses and shifting it more to homeowners. Currently businesses and commercial property owners pay $30.83 for every $1,000 of assessed property while homeowners pay $14.93 for every $1,000.
Last week's proposal would have residents paying $15.65 for every $1,000 and businesses paying $33.38 for every $1,000.
"If you are looking to do something for the businesses, I'm not against that," Bissonnette said.
One proposal would switch the burden so the average homeowner's bill would increase $35 and raise the average bill for businesses by $667.
Chicopee City Council tax debate will continue, more burden could be shifted from businesses to homeowners

The price of a rezone
What's the going price to buy support for a project in King County despite strong community opposition?
Since 1994, Happy Valley Associates, now renamed Salmon Valley Associates (nice touch), along with partners and other principals who support building a mall east of Redmond in rural Happy Valley, have given nearly $15,000 to several members of the council and the Executive in a continuing campaign to commercialize the rural area despite repeated defeats in the past.
They've thrown money at Gary Locke's run for governor and even Chris Vance's run for the state Superintendent of Public Instruction. It is common knowledge that Vance is the developer's strongest ally on the council, and we have seen how he uses his position as chair of the Growth Management Committee to push developer interests, such as the strongly opposed Blakely Ridge and Northridge mega-developments.
Chris Vance says the location of Happy Valley makes it inevitably commercial. Is that his belief about Novelty Hill as well, where he's working to destroy our rural neighborhoods and put in a new city the size of Woodinville? Is there any rural area he and the other pro-developer members of the council don't believe is inevitably urban?
It's really quite unfair. Developers are pushing for projects while funding campaigns of council members who don't represent our districts or live here, but who have a vote to destroy them. Now a new ethics code has been presented to the county to address these unethical practices. How strongly does Chris Vance oppose it? Just guess!

18 January 2011
8. Adrian Salcedo, RHP, 20 years old
(courtesy of minorleaguebaseball.com)
2010 stats: 5-6 4.15 ERA 81/18 K/BB in 93.1 innings for Elizabethtown (Rookie) & Fort Myers (High-A)
Last year's rank: #7
Acquired: Signed out of the Dominican Republic in December 2007
What is one of the main things the Twins are known for when it comes to their prospects? If you said patience, you are on my wavelength. So, why did the Twins start Adrian Salcedo in Fort Myers in 2010?
Salcedo has been mostly a man of mystery in Twins prospect circles. Many bloggers had him very high based on his young age (18) and outstanding numbers in 2009 for the Gulf Coast Twins. This site had him at #7 and I ranked him #3 at a different site. His numbers in 2009 really jumped out at you. He had a 1.46 ERA with 58 strikeouts and 3 walks in 61.2 innings in 09. He hit more batters (5) than he walked. That's an amazing 19.33 K/BB.
So, 2009 was amazing, but Salcedo is very young, he'd need more rookie ball exposure, maybe start the year in Elizabethtown. So, where do the normally conservative Twins move him in May of 2010? To High A Fort Myers of course! In his 6 starts at Fort Myers, he went 1-3 with a 6.26 ERA. He struck out 16 and walked 8 in 27.1 innings, in a league 3 levels higher than the one he pitched for in 2009. His numbers do not look good, but he also gave up an amazingly high .390 BABIP. His FIP (Fielding Independent Pitching) was 4.77. He wasn't as bad as his ERA suggested, but he wasn't ready for the Florida State League and was moved down to Elizabethtown in June, once their season started.
At Elizabethtown, he was much better. He went 4-3 with a 3.27 ERA between starting and relieving. He struck out 65 and walked just 10 in 66 innings. Looking at the numbers, he probably should have been at E-town all year. The Twins must have wanted to get him facing live hitting before the rookie league season started.
Salcedo has a low 90s fastball plus a curve, change and slider. He's 6'4" and since he is so young, he could really add to his frame.
Ideal Scenerio: Salcedo will be 20 when the season starts and should start the season in Beloit's rotation.
Path to the majors: Salcedo was used some in the bullpen at Elizabethtown, but the Twins probably still view him as a starter. If he starts the year hot in Beloit, he could return to Fort Myers more seasoned. If the Twins are indeed committed to fast-track him, he could get to the majors around 2013. There is no hurry, as he is very young and he hasn't pitched a full season yet.

Steen jammed home a puck that Giguere bobbled, then lost track of, in the third period of the St. Louis Blues' game against Colorado.
All that started when Blues forward David Backes threw a seemingly harmless shot on net. So there's a lesson for all you little hockey players out there! Thumbs up!
It was Steen's second goal of the game and 16th of the season, and it put St. Louis up 6-1 on the Avalanche.

Bronx Lawmakers want Liquor Authority to consult cops (9.11.13)
| More |
Lawmakers are rallying around a new state bill that could change the way liquor licenses are granted to bars and nightclubs.
The proposed law would give the New York State Liquor Authority access to information about assaults, soliciting and disorderly conduct reported at bars and nightclubs. The liquor board would be able to use the reports when deciding on liquor licensing.
