Cynthia RylantŌĆÖs LudieŌĆÖs Life (0-15-205389-1, $16) is, as the jacket cover tells us, ŌĆ£the story of one womanŌĆÖs experiences in a hardscrabble coal-mining town, a story that brims with the universal themes of life, love, and family ŌĆö and the joy, laughter, heartache, and loss that accompany them.ŌĆØ
LudieŌĆÖs Life, a story told in poetic form, is also predictable (was there ever a coal-mining town that wasnŌĆśt hard-scrabble?), sentimental (read the previous sentence again), and flimsy both in length and construction.
Rylant deals clich├®s with the reckless enthusiasm of a Saturday night poker player. When we reach page 58 and read that ŌĆ£In her last months of high school, / LudieŌĆÖs granddaughter / started dating the only rich boy in her senior classŌĆØ we know that within a page or two the rich boy will eventually dump the poor granddaughter. Other stereotypes knock us about the head in this poem: a wicked stepmother, good country people, the wise old mountain woman.
These folksy clich├®s extend to some of the ideas in the poem. At one point, describing LudieŌĆÖs old age, Rylant writes that LudieŌĆÖs children and grandchildren came to her house and ŌĆ£found a cup of coffee / and a smile / and an open front door. / Ludie had seen too much of life / to waste any time / telling others how to live.ŌĆØ Several lines later, after telling us about the death of one of LudieŌĆÖs granddaughterŌĆÖs ŌĆö we have no idea which granddaughter or how she died ŌĆö Rylant tells us again that ŌĆ£She would not waste any time / telling others how to live.ŌĆØ
Rylant here is warning against one of the great post-modern sins ŌĆö Thou Shalt Not Teach Morality ŌĆö yet these lines strike me as the most ignorant in the book. Here is Ludie, who lives into her 90ŌĆÖs, a woman who raises six children and several grandchildren, who experiences a goodly share of lifeŌĆÖs travails ŌĆö and she has nothing to say? Imparting information on how to live doesnŌĆÖt require a soapbox or a pulpit, as Rylant seems to imply, but it does require the ability to pass along our own experiences to help those who follow us. Perhaps unintentionally, Rylant underscores LudieŌĆÖs failures in this regard when she tells us of LudieŌĆÖs biscuits: ŌĆ£Those who missed the biscuits / tried to make a batch themselves / hauling that pan of self-rising flour out of LudieŌĆÖs closet / when they stopped by. / But their biscuits never measured up, / and next time Ludie just did it for them.ŌĆØ
Here we must suppose that Ludie ŌĆ£would not waste any time / telling others how to make biscuits.ŌĆØ
One redeeming feature of LudieŌĆÖs Life is its brevity. To review a big, bloated book often means several days of gray skies and dismal rains. LudieŌĆÖs Life, which most readers can finish in forty-five minutes, offered this critic nothing more than an afternoon mountain shower.
The Stackhouses of Appalachia: Even to Our Own Times (0-9789548-1-5, $29.95) tells the story of Amos Stackhouse, a Quaker and entrepreneur who came from Pennsylvania to Western North Carolina following the Civil War. Stackhouse and his family lived first in Hot Springs in Madison County, where he was involved in several business enterprises and then moved into rural Madison County, where Amos Stackhouse opened a second store. His home and store became the center of a small, thriving community, Stackhouse, and its traces may still be seen today.
Jacqueline Burgin Painter, the author of The Stackhouses of Appalachia, has given us an impressive chronicle not only of the Stackhouse family but of the development in railroads and tourism in Western North Carolina following the Civil War. Through her use of letters, newspapers, old photographs, and interviews, Painter shows us the impact that a single man with capital and vision could have on a mountain community. We see the enormous effect of railroads on the mountains, especially in terms of tourism, logging, and commercial farming. Through the Stackhouse family, we gain a broader picture of our region, the effects, for example, of influenza after the First World War, which devastated several mountain communities. We learn through first-hand accounts what it was like to run a boarding house, to go off to war, to see the trains come to the mountains. At one point Hester, the wife of Amos, Jr., takes two sons to a boarding school in Weaverville. After writing home to report several discipline problems, she writes about the school:
ŌĆ£There were two dreadful fights in study hall ŌĆö Hugh Byrd and a boy named Brittain had the first. Hugh cut BrittainŌĆÖs arm right bad, cut his coat, broke up a desk, upset a large stove ŌĆö the red-hot pipe and all in the floor. Then, he cursed a boy named Rhinehart, who broke up a chair over HughŌĆÖs head ... A pretty example, I think, in a church school ... PainterŌĆÖs chronicle is filled with such accounts, reminders that our present-day problems and concerns may not be as unique or as new as we may think.ŌĆØ
Another two weeks, and itŌĆÖs time for the shamrocks and green beer. Besides gathering at OŌĆÖMalleyŌĆÖs on Main in Waynesville or any other number of pubs in the area, Irish folk and Irish folk at heart might glance again at an older book, Thomas CahillŌĆÖs How The Irish Saved Civilization: The Untold Story of IrelandŌĆÖs Heroic Role from the Fall of Rome to the Rise of Medieval Europe, a title, incidentally, which only an Irishman could have devised.
Here Cahill tells us the story of the slave Patricus, who escapes his Irish master to return to Britain, only to come again as a missionary to Ireland. We read again of the early saints and hermits, of the monks who by copying manuscripts did indeed help to keep our civilization alive, of the connections between Celtic legends and history.
In his concluding discussion of the state and of faith, Cahill gives us this reminder:
ŌĆ£If our civilization is to be saved ŌĆö forget about our civilization, which, as Patrick would say, may pass ŌĆśin a moment like a cloud or smoke that is scattered by the windŌĆÖ ŌĆö if we are to be saved, it will not be by Romans but by saints.ŌĆØ
Unlike Ludie, Cahill points out a way to live.

he comes across as a dick full stop in this imo
yeah past interviews around Los Angeles period he seems a lot more laid back and open minded. I think he's let some of worldwide recognition get to his head. I got shivers from that music video nonetheless, you can tell right after he finished that track he had a complete vision of how he would represent it visually.

Ravena, NY man arrested for unlawful imprisonment in Swan Lake
June 26, 2013 —
On June 25, 2013 the New York State Police at Liberty arrested John Irby, age 33, of Ravena, NY for Unlawful Imprisonment in the first degree, Reckless Endangerment in the first degree, Assault in the third degree and Endangering the Welfare of a Child.
State Police received several phone calls regarding the possible abduction of a female from the area of State Route 55 in Swan Lake. Troopers and deputies from the Sullivan County Sheriff's Office responded to the area where witnesses stated that they observed a male subject dragging a screaming female into a vehicle that then fled the area at a high rate of speed.
A search for the vehicle, a 2002 Oldsmobile began. A short time later, the vehicle was spotted on Stanton Corners Road in the Town of Liberty by a plainclothes member of the Sheriff's Office.
Marked State Police units were successful in stopping the vehicle and the operator, John Irby, was taken into custody. A female subject and two children were located in the vehicle.
The female was taken to Catskill Regional Medical Center and treated for non-life threatening injuries sustained when she jumped from the moving vehicle at one point during the incident.
Irby was arraigned in the Town of Liberty Court and remanded to the Sullivan County Jail with no bail set.

Kelly McGillis' Second Act
The star of such '80s films as "Witness" and "Top Gun" returns to her first love — the stage — as a scheming Southern aristocrat in the Pasadena Playhouse production of "The Little Foxes."
By John Seeley 06/01/2009
Actress Kelly McGillis, who shot to fame in such iconic '80s films as "Witness" and "Top Gun," returns to center stage — literally — in the Pasadena Playhouse production of Lillian Hellman's "The Little Foxes," which runs through June 28. In the classic 1939 drama, McGillis plays the steely and ruthless Southerner Regina Giddens, who struggles with her family over wealth and freedom.
In April, McGillis again made headlines after keeping a low profile in recent years, softpedaling her career to tend to her family. This time, it was for a reason other than her acting — her personal life. At 51, McGillis came out on the lesbian Web site shewired.com — declaring, "I'm done with the man thing … I need to move on in life. That's another part of being true to yourself that's been a challenge for me."
McGillis' current path brings her to Pasadena for the challenging stage role tackled by such leading ladies as Bette Davis on film and Tallulah Bankhead and Stockard Channing onstage. Why is this saga of money-hungry, Machiavellian manipulation, set in antebellum Alabama more than a century ago, being revived now? And why would McGillis fit into that milieu?
"How far one would go for money and power is a timeless question," said Dámaso Rodriguez, who's directing the Pasadena production. "The acquisition of generational wealth may be connected to some instinct to preserve one's own children." Corporate abuses making news, from the treachery of Bernie Madoff on down, make it even more timely, Rodriguez continued. As for casting McGillis, he said, "I never saw her as an ingenue; she's got physical power and firepower … and she can play Regina, who is really, really smart." Adds Sheldon Epps, artistic director of the Pasadena Playhouse, McGillis has "stage muscle, the kind you only develop from solid experience."
Arroyo Monthly recently caught up with McGillis for a liquid experience over herbal tea at a Playhouse District coffee bar.
Why this play now? The action in "The Little Foxes" is set more than 100 years ago — is there any resonance or relevance to relationships today?
The play as a whole and the topic of greed and doing whatever it takes to make money is a very timely issue in light of what's going on with our economy. Also, on a personal level, the character of Regina, for her it's about survival; that money represents validity and autonomy in a very patriarchal culture, and I think that continues, even though things are a lot better than 100 years ago.
She is a much darker role than people are used to seeing you play — this cold, manipulative, rather sinister woman. What in your professional work prepared you for this role?
I don't think that she's dark and sinister; I think she's a survivor. And I think that when people are in survival mode, they will do whatever they need to do. I don't think that there are these "evil" people in the world; I think people do things out of desperation.
You've been doing a lot of Shakespeare lately.
I have been working with the Shakespeare Theater in Washington, D.C. I've done Lady MacBeth — and she's not so nice [she laughs]. Also, Lavinia in "Mourning Becomes Electra" — not so nice, so I don't know where you got the impression …
Are you happier doing stage work in front of live audiences?
That's the greatest thing in the world. Growing up, I wanted to be a theater actor, so it was kind of a shock to me that I ever made a movie. What I love is you get to be in control of your own performance. Say I do a movie, and I do my tapes and whatever I do the best I can, and they take it away and the director and the editor sit in a room and put it together — they're in control of my timing as an actor (when they cut away, for example), so my performance is under the control of somebody else. In the theater, I get to work with my timing (with the director and the other actors) and I get to play with that night after night with a new character — which is the audience. That group brings a different energy, different feel, and then you get to play with the nuances, the subtleties of your performance. That's what I love.
What dramatic work are you most happy with or proud of?
"Mourning Becomes Electra" was the hardest, most challenging work, the scariest. I was very intimidated by the whole idea of Electra and by O'Neill and the vastness of his concept — it's a cycle, everything goes in circles.
On to films: You passed on the role that Jodie Foster got an Oscar for in "The Accused," because the rape victim role hit too close to home. [McGillis was brutally raped in New York in 1982 by two young men, one of whom went on to become a serial offender.] Have you spent any time kicking yourself for missing that opportunity?
Oh, God, no, everything in my life has gone exactly the way it was supposed to happen. Jodie was brilliant in that role and nobody could have done it the way she did.
How was working with Harrison Ford [in the 1985 film "Witness"], different from working with Tom Cruise [as the romantic interest of Cruise's pilot character in 1986's "Top Gun"]?
Harrison Ford, for me, was working with a huge icon and — this was my first job, out of school — incredibly intimidating. He was larger than life and I was this little kid from Juilliard who knew nothing about anything, but he was very nice. Working with Tom was a little different because we were all around the same age. He was very supportive, very kind. It was really fun.
You just came out publicly, saying you're "done with the man thing."
What happened was I was asked [by "Girl Rock" video logger Jennifer Corday] and I had to choose ... so I just decided on a truth moment. Earlier, part of [staying in the closet] is youth — we're always trying to decide who we are, and we let other people define it.
Do you risk losing roles by coming out now? Or has Hollywood really changed on that score?
I would hope people have a much easier time of it today.
You've been living in a small town in Pennsylvania recently. Why is that?
I just moved to New Jersey, the Philadelphia suburbs. But yeah, we moved there in 2001, a small town near Amish country. After the divorce, I wanted to raise my kids in a different sort of environment; they were 8 and 12. I wanted to be a more full-time mother and that would have been hard close to New York or L.A., with the pull of acting jobs.
I read that, aside from work, you've been involved with "addiction studies."
I've been studying at a seminary in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and I go to prisons and talk to young women about addiction and recovery. Most of them are there because of addiction — their own or their husbands' or boyfriends'. If you can bring them some kind of spiritual help, or hope …
Sort of a prison ministry. Is there something that gives you some special insight into these problems?
I've had issues. That's in the past, but ... the issues are there all your life.
So what are you looking forward to after "The Little Foxes?" Are there film or TV projects?
I just hope I can go back to work — it's what makes me joyous. I might also pursue some work at a seminary in the fall. It all depends; I don't know what God's plan is.

Chapter 1: The Fall of Palace
BS Fire Emblem: The Akaneia Wars
Chapter 1, broadcasting from September 28th to October 4th daily at 7:00 PM!
Palace falls... Will Nina follow the same fate?
Palace, capital city to the Kingdom of Saint Akaneia, lay on the brink of destruction before the relentless attacks of the Drua Empire. Surrounded by the Imperial Army, Palace was in a state of chaos. The city's resources were drawn thin, and public order all but disappeared, with people resorting to thievery and murder to feed themselves. Palace was once hailed as the Millennial Palace, but its former glory was nowhere to be seen; all that remained were hopeless wails and flames that scorched the night sky.
The nightmare began two years before. The Dark Dragon Medius, one thousand years after being sealed away by the Legendary Hero Henri, had awoken in the land of Drua. With his terrifying power, Medius conquered Grunia and Macedonia in the blink of an eye, and united the two nations to form the Dark Empire of Drua.
To stop Medius, Akaneia, together with allies Orleans and Aritia, formed an Alliance Army of over fifty thousand men to march upon Drua. However, due to the incompetence of the Akeneian nobles, the Alliance suffered a humiliating defeat in Grunia by the hands of the cunning General Camus. As the Alliance was forced to retreat, it was further crippled by the relentless pursuit from the Macedonian Dragon Knights led by Prince Michael. Shocked by this defeat, the king of Akaneia holed up inside Castle Palace, and the bond within the Alliance was lost.
Answering the call for aid from Palace, King Cornelius of Aritia organized his entire army along with the Kingdom of Gra. However, between Cornelius and Palace stood the Grunian Army led by General Camus. The clash between the brilliant tactician Camus and the ferocious warrior Cornelius slowly degenerated into a stalemate, but the sudden betrayal of King Jiol of Gra quickly turned the tide of the battle in Grunia's favor. The Aritian Army was decimated, following the death of King Cornelius.
Meanwhile in the north, Orleans was under siege by the Macedonian Dragon Knights, slowly but surely being forced to surrender. The defeat of both Aritia and Orleans sent waves of fear through Palace. The people lost hope, and deserters could be seen fleeing the city daily. The once impregnable Castle Palace was being overrun by Imperial soldiers, and their footsteps could be heard approaching the king's chamber as well. Knowing that his fate was sealed, the king issued his last orders to Bishop Boa...

- Title
- The race that precedes coactivation: development of multisensory facilitation in children
- Author(s)
- Barutchu, Ayla; Crewther, David P.; Crewther, Sheila G.
- Abstract
- Rationale: The facilitating effect of multisensory integration on motor responses in adults is much larger than predicted by race-models and is in accordance with the idea of coactivation. However, the development of multisensory facilitation of endogenously driven motor processes and its relationship to the development of complex cognitive skills in school-age children is largely unexplored. Method: Twenty adults and 95 children where allocated into six age groups: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10–11 and adults. Participants' motor reaction times (MRTs) and accuracy in response to the detection of auditory, visual and audiovisual stimuli were recorded. Children's reading accuracy and nonverbal IQ were also assessed. Results: In general, MRTs of children were significantly slower with greater variability than those of adults. Although the average level of multisensory facilitation was similar for all age groups, mean cumulative density functions (CDFs) showed that multisensory facilitation in 6 and 10–11- year-olds is within the predictive limits of race-models. Where coactivation was seen in the CDF of individual children it was not as strong or as consistent as that in adults. The degree of multisensory facilitation did not correlate with age, reading accuracy or IQ. Conclusion: The average level of multisensory facilitation to endogenously driven motor responses does not change gradually with age nor is it related to intelligence or reading accuracy. In general, multisensory integration remains immature until 10–11 years of age and lies within the predicted confines of race-models.

Plea considered in child abuse case
WELLSBURG – A child sexual abuse case that was slated to go to trial in Brooke County may end with a plea agreement.
A hearing was held Thursday to set a date for the trial of Luther E. Hendricks Jr., 43, of Wellsburg, who was indicted on four counts of sexual abuse by a custodian, 10 counts of possession of child pornography and five counts of displaying that material to a minor.
But Jack Wood, Hendricks' court-appointed attorney, said Brooke County Prosecutor Joseph Barki III has proposed a new plea agreement that Hendricks may accept.
A hearing on the matter has been set for Feb. 4.
Hendricks didn't accept a plea agreement proposed by Barki earlier. It would have involved a potential prison sentence of 46-50 years for pleading guilty to 16 of the 20 counts for which he was charged.
Wood declined to comment, and Barki wasn't available for comment.
According to court records, the West Virginia State Police found several pornographic images involving children on Hendricks' computer.
Hendricks also was indicted for failing to register as a sexual offender after being convicted of possession of child pornography in 2000.
According to a Brooke County grand jury indictment, Hendricks didn't notify authorities of a new e-mail address he allegedly used to distribute the pornography.

Since its doors opened in 1962, Kohl's has become known for selling everything from housewares and furniture to bedding and bath products. The department store's specialty, however, remains clothing.

International celebrities, including Jennifer Lopez, Lauren Conrad, and Gloria Vanderbilt, have developed their own only-for-Kohl's lines. If you're shopping for your home, you can choose from known, trusted brands, including Keurig, KitchenAid, Calphalon, Dyson, Food Network, and Samsonite. You can also support your favorite team when you shop at Kohl's: the department store sells fan gear from the National Football League, the NCAA, Major League Baseball, National Hockey League, National Basketball Association, and Major League Soccer.

I looked far and wide for replacement floor mats for my 1987 Mercedes 420SEL. I wanted a mat that had the same pile, quality, and color match as the OEM. These fit the bill perfectly. A great buy.

One of the most profound means of human communication is the visual arts. By establishing a meaningful dialogue between an artist's vision of the world and our own perceptions, art can help us to understand ourselves more fully. Moreover, art at its finest gives us a deep sense of history, tradition, and the true potentialities of man's creativity. -Norton Simon, 1972
The Norton Simon Museum promotes the knowledge and understanding of the visual arts to a diverse audience. Whether your preference is for small, informal discussions with staff educators, lectures by renowned scholars and curators or drawing classes led by local artists, the Museum invites you to experience the richness of the collections in many different ways. Enjoy family-friendly programs that introduce children and adults to the wonderful world of art and spark the creative spirit in kids of all ages.

CHICAGO (October 31, 2013) — North Park University was among the colleges and universities that yielded the most U.S. Fulbright students in 2013–2014, according to a list announced by the U.S. Department of State. The list of top-producing institutions was published in the October 28 edition of the Chronicle of Higher Education.
Three North Park University students won 2013–2014 Fulbright awards: Timothy Ahlberg, completing a Binational Business Exchange Grant internship in Mexico; Samuel Auger, serving as an English Teaching Assistant in Bulgaria; and Bailey Schwartz, serving as an English Teaching Assistant in Turkey. Including these three, the program has awarded 12 of its prestigious grants to North Park University graduates in the past five years.
Dr. Linda Parkyn, Fulbright Program faculty associate, brings her experience as a Fulbright Scholar and Fulbright Specialist to the University, and is committed to encouraging students to seek out opportunities offered by the program. "North Park students can compete with the best college students in the country," Parkyn said. "Our success in this program shows the faculty commitment to mentor students. If students take learning seriously and are ready to excel in their courses, internships, and community service, the faculty is eager to steer them toward opportunities like this."
The Fulbright Program, the U.S. government's flagship international educational exchange program, is an excellent way for high-achieving undergraduates to gain work experience after graduation, said Parkyn. "Crafting a life takes more than a diploma," she said. "I have worked with some wonderful students who make it their mission to show the best of the spirit of service in their first year after North Park, working in schools and universities throughout the world."
The application process for the Fulbright Program is rigorous. The North Park University Fulbright Committee, comprised of Provost Joseph Jones and five faculty members, interviews each applicant. "In the process of writing a competitive application and in faculty conversations, students mature in their outlook and in their essay cohesiveness," said Parkyn. "These grantees have worked hard."
More than 1,800 U.S. students, artists, and young professionals in more than 100 different fields of study have been offered Fulbright Program awards in more than 140 countries this fall.
The Fulbright Program was established by the U.S. Congress in 1946, and is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State. It is the largest U.S. international exchange program offering opportunities for students, scholars, and professionals to undertake international graduate study, advanced research, university teaching, and teaching in elementary and secondary schools worldwide.

The big chill [8:08 AM]
San Diego Union Tribune reports: '"We wasted an opportunity here because we didn't make enough plays," coach Marty Schottenheimer said.'
With Bledsoe grounded, Henry flies by [8:08 AM]
San Diego Union Tribune reports: '"We passed the ball a few times when he thought we should have run it," Henry said. "But we got everything squared away."'
Benched, but unbowed [8:07 AM]
San Diego Union Tribune reports: 'The primary reason Brees was pulled is that the offense hasn't done much scoring the past two months. The unit has only 10 touchdowns in the last seven games, and three came in one quarter against Denver. Brees has now gone four games without a touchdown pass, doubling the second-longest streak in the league this season by a quarterback who has started four consecutive games.'
Hanky-panky day [8:07 AM]
San Diego Union Tribune reports: '"They called so many (bad) calls against us," Conway said. "And we didn't get any."'
Bolts' QB of future stuck in neutral [8:06 AM]
San Diego Union Tribune reports: 'Doug Flutie no longer poses a threat to Drew Brees. There can be no question about that. At issue is whether Drew Brees is the answer.'
Christie's kick harder than it looked [8:05 AM]
San Diego Union Tribune reports: 'Bennett was holding in the mist and wind and frigid temperatures with only one glove on, having been unable to locate the person holding his other glove on the sideline. The snap went through Bennett's frozen fingers and hit him in the chest. He handled the ball and set it down in time. But in his haste, the laces were facing him instead of the goal post, as they should have been.'
Bills' defense flattens the Chargers [5:23 AM]
D and C reports: 'At 7-7 their playoff chances remain slim, but slim is better than non-existent.'
Defeating Chargers makes victory sweeter [5:22 AM]
D and C reports: 'To the Bills� relief, �Doug�s Revenge� was prevented thanks to an inspired defense that picked up the slack for quarterback Drew Bledsoe, who drew four pass interference calls on the Chargers, but did little else.'
Never a dull moment with Flutie [5:21 AM]
D and C reports: 'He proved again Sunday that love him or hate him, you can�t ignore him. He still has a knack for making things interesting to the bitter end.'
Defense finally earns some raves [5:20 AM]
D and C reports: 'Henry was a horse as he carried 26 times for 144 yards, a 6.5 average per carry. His six games of at least 125 yards lead the NFL.'
Buffalo Bills Week 15 report card [5:19 AM]
D and C reports: 'COACHING: The staff remembered Travis Henry just in time to win this one. The commitment to stopping Tomlinson and taking chances with Brees and Flutie was a sound one. A very big win for Gregg Williams against veteran coach Marty Schottenheimer. B+'
Bills beat the ex factor [5:18 AM]
Toronto Sun reports: 'When he was announced as the Chargers' new quarterback the applause was mixed with jeers. "The people in Buffalo that I bumped into the last 48 hours were just amazing," Flutie said. "They were well-wishing, patting you on the back. Once the game starts, it's completely different. And that's football."'
A win's a win, but Drew hits rut [5:17 AM]
Toronto Sun reports: 'Bledsoe had his least productive game as a Bill in yesterday's 20-13 win over the San Diego Chargers, completing just 11 of 33 attempts for 107 yards.'
Flutie willing to return to the CFL ... in a couple of years [5:16 AM]
Toronto Sun reports: '"I would consider it down the road a couple of years if (the Chargers) didn't want me anymore," said Flutie, who came on in relief of Drew Brees in the fourth quarter. "I'm not sure if my wife would approve. But as long as I'm playing in San Diego, that's not going to happen. After that, who knows?"'
Flutie fans fill stadium [5:15 AM]
Toronto Sun reports: 'No matter what his critics say, there's no denying one thing. The guy's a legend.'
There are no tricks up his sleeve [5:14 AM]
Boston Globe reports: '''When Flutie came in, I knew we had to stay in our lanes because he can make things happen,'' said Bills linebacker London Fletcher. ''He's been a terrific player in this league for a number of years. It forced us to be disciplined on the back end.'''
Bills stifle Flutie, Chargers with 20-13 victory [5:13 AM]
USA Today reports: 'Dropped passes, missed tackles and nine penalties for 121 yards, including four for 86 yards for pass interference, better explain why the Chargers continued yet another late-season tailspin. They are a combined 1-11 in December since 1999.'
Week 15: Gregg Williams Postgame Quotes [8:20 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: "Each and every week that is a big part of our game plan. We did a good job pressuring, disrupted their rhythm on some of those plays and we did a nice job of challenging their receivers when they tried to catch the ball."
Week 15: Doug Flutie Postgame Quotes [8:20 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: "It was fun. It really was. It was fun to hear it from the crowd a little bit and step into a situation where we were behind and have the opportunity to go and try to win the ball game. We made a couple plays and got ourselves into position and didn't follow thru on it. For me personally, it was fun to step onto the field. As a team, this puts our backs against the wall now."
Flutie Magic Fizzles in Loss [7:38 PM]
ChargersUpdate.com reports: 'Henry had five rushes on the drive for 53 yards including a touchdown run from 26 yards out and the final margin, 20-13.'
Bolts drop a heartbreaker [7:33 PM]
Chargers.com reports: 'It's not that Brees was playing poorly. He had completed 13 of 24 passes for 148 yards and on a frigid, windy day in Buffalo that saw his counterpart, Bills quarterback Drew Bledsoe, complete just 11 of 33 passes for 107 yards. It's just that Schottenheimer was looking for a way to bring the Chargers back into the game, who reiterated after the game that Brees will be San Diego's starter at Kansas City next week.'
Week 15: Bills-Chargers Postgame Quotebook [7:17 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: Travis Henry: "Before the game we knew that we had to come in with a balanced attack. We knew that we had to run the ball on them because they play cover two at times and we knew when they gave us that look on defense we would be able to run the ball. We did well. The offensive line blocked well and when we had opportunities to run, we ran well."
Buffalo 20, San Diego 13 [5:44 PM]
UPI reports: 'The Chargers, who have lost five of their last seven, began the day a game behind the Raiders, who lost in Miami. Buffalo climbed to 7-7, two games out of the lead in the AFC East with two to play.'
Bills 20, Chargers 13 [4:50 PM]
AP reports: 'Gametime temperature was 36 degrees, making it the 11th coldest game in Chargers history. San Diego, which hadn't played a game in conditions 57 degrees or colder this season, is 3-8 when the temperature is 40 degrees or colder.'
Buffalo 20, San Diego 13 [4:40 PM]
Sportsticker reports: 'Bledsoe completed only 11-of-33 passes...'.
Buffalo Bills Notebook: Inactives, Notes & More [1:59 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: Updated throughout the game --- On his first completion, a 7-yard pass to Dave Moore, Drew Bledsoe set a new franchise record for passing yards in a season, surpassing Jim Kelly's mark of 3,840 yards (1991).
Wiley will hear about his return [10:31 AM]
North County Times reports: '"Seriously, (Butler) was about 80 percent of the reason I came here, because he believed in me,'' Wiley said. "He first understood what kind of player I was and what I could become in this league."'
Flutie hopes Brees braves Buffalo winds [10:29 AM]
North County Times reports: '"The fans live and die with the Bills. On Wednesday night, trailers and campers start showing up in the parking lot. They stake their claim, go to work ---- but instead of going back home, they return to the parking lot. They will tailgate every evening. There will be bonfires in the parking lot to keep warm. It is probably the loudest outdoor stadium there is. As you get late in the season, when fans get bundled up a little bit, the warm gloves muffles the sound. That might help us out a bit."'
Chargers matchups [10:27 AM]
North County Times reports: 'Pick: BILLS 23, CHARGERS 13.'
Chargers are where the Bills wanted to be [9:41 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Even winning out wouldn't guarantee the Chargers their first playoff berth in seven years, but it certainly would go a long way.'

Springfield, Ill. -- As required by P.A. 094-0151, signed
in July 2005 by Governor Rod Blagojevich, seven new members
of the Advisory Council for the Education of Gifted and
Talented Children have been appointed by State Superintendent
Randy Dunn.
Three members of the seven member Council are appointed
to a term that expires in January 2009, while four members

Runners are lacing up their shoes in preparation for Festival Foods Grandad Half Marathon.
About 3,000 runners will take part in the annual race Saturday that used to be known as the La Crosse Fitness Festival.
There are a number of events ranging from 100 yard dashes for the kids to the 13.1 mile run through the city.
Organizers say it's not possible to pull off the event without the help of volunteers, and they need about 300 for Saturday's big race alone. "We have people that help at the finish line, they hand out participant food and medals, but we also need people along the course, we have volunteer staff at each of the intersections basically helping to control traffic and to keep runners safe," said Kerry Gloede.
The half marathon starts Saturday at 8:00 a.m. on top of Grandad Bluff.
For more information on the race or to find out how you can volunteer click here.


text: my ds has been having more greenish stools the last few days. I'm currently trying to get him to be nursing from both breasts as opposed to just my left breast. So far it's going great. I was just wondering if it's cause now I'm nursing both breasts that his stools are green now? I know with the left breast he does get to the hindmilk. With the right breast I can say he doesn't ever get that hindmilk. I always feel full on the left breast. I even express some milk from left breast in hopes that will help. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be happening cause I'm still really full in the left breast. Please help.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE Thomas Roberts, at 75; inspired lighthouse preservation efforts
Thomas Roberts, a banker whose efforts to save the black-and-white-striped Fire Island Lighthouse in the early 1980s became a model for scores of lighthouse preservation campaigns around the country and yielded a popular tourist destination, died June 10 at his home in Bay Shore, N.Y. He was 75.
The cause was colon cancer, said his son, Thomas Roberts IV.
Roberts, who had grown up in the heyday of fishermen and clammers on Long Islands South Shore, was a mortgage banker and suburban weekend boater when the Coast Guard announced plans to save money by knocking down the 121-year-old lighthouse in 1979.
The Fire Island Light, as it is called a 170-foot tower on the western end of the barrier island had sent its beam across a 20-mile arc of the Atlantic, waving off vessels from its ship-littered shoals from 1858 to 1974, when its lantern was dismantled.
It was one of dozens of lighthouses the government planned to demolish, a link in a necklace of shoreline beacons once considered essential to the nations trade and commerce. The government plan prompted Roberts to write an essay, published by Newsday, the Long Island newspaper, in which he argued for the lighthouses preservation, emphasizing their importance in U.S. maritime history.
From scores of neighbors and people who sent letters to the newspaper agreeing with him, Roberts recruited the founding membership of the Fire Island Lighthouse Preservation Society.
The society, established in 1982, raised money through concerts, fashion shows, 5-mile runs, clambakes and black-tie dinners. Children collected aluminum cans on the beach and sent in a check for $186. Liz Claiborne, the fashion designer, and her husband, Arthur Ortenberg, pulled in substantial corporate donations and then matched the donors gifts.
The $1.2 million raised in the societys first four years paid for repairs to the lighthouse, the conversion of the lighthouse-keepers cottage into a visitors center, and the rekindling of the old lighthouse beacon.
Roberts and his group also reached an agreement with the National Park Service in 1996, giving them rights to operate the lighthouse as a self-supporting maritime museum.
The agreement became the model for provisions in the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act of 2000, governing similar lighthouse reclamation efforts. The Fire Island Lighthouse, which has been open to the public since the late 1980s, now draws 200,000 visitors a year, according to the preservation society.
This was not the first, but it was certainly one of the earliest and most successful efforts of its kind, a model for how it could be done, said Jess Gales, executive director of the U.S. Lighthouse Society, a nonprofit group that has helped save nearly 100 lighthouses since 1984.
Mr. Roberts was very influential in lighthouse preservation, and in a very New York way, he added. He and his people, they just didnt take no for an answer.
Thomas Franklin Roberts III was born on May 11, 1938, to Thomas Roberts II and Irene Roberts in Bay Shore, where his father owned a real estate brokerage. After attending Bay Shore High School, where he was a golfing champion, Roberts graduated from Wake Forest University in North Carolina and received a masters degree in business from Brown University. He became executive vice president of Seamens Bank for Savings, served as president of the Mortgage Bankers Association of New York, and in the mid-1980s formed his own real estate finance firm.
Roberts helped raise more than $5 million for the preservation society before illness slowed him in recent years. His most triumphant moment came on a balmy May night in 1986, when he pulled the ceremonial switch that turned on the lighthouse beacon after it had been dark for 12 years.
Thousands of people attended the event. Smithsonian magazine wrote that hundreds of boats offshore were crammed with spectators. When the first beam of light swept over the surface of the water, the magazine said, many of them cried.MORE IN Wire NewsMADISON, Wis.

Hi ladies... hope you can help.
After lots of recurrent plugged ducts and 2 bouts of mastitis, I was diagnosed with ductal candida (deep thrush). I was given Fluconazole 100mg, once a day, for 2 weeks. Baby was treated with Nystatin. She finished her nystatin, and I have 2 days left on the fluconazole. I've also been taking acidophilus probiotic (10billion units once a day). Washing laundry in super hot water, too.
The stabbing breast pain had gone away for about a week, but now it's back! Last night, I had night time breast pain, and now stabbing pains after pumping this morning (both sides). The tips of my nipples are starting to turn white, again, too. And theres is a deep itch in the fleshy area of my left breast that is driving me crazy. It feels the same as before, but I haven't even finished the medication yet. Has anyone else experienced this?
Should I ask for a higher dosage? Does baby need to be treated again if I get medication again? She hasn't had any symptoms through all of this. Any other advice on how to beat this? I know it can be hard to get rid of thrush... any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Also, any thoughts on baby gassiness? DD has been ridiculously gassy in the past couple of days. Everytime she so much as moves an arm or leg, she farts! I've never heard so much gas before. She's even been passing gas in her sleep! Do you think it is related to the candida? It seems to just have started in the past three or four days. I can't think of anything I've eaten consistently over 4 days that would cause this.

(WARRENSBURG, Mo.) When lining up against Bishop LeBlond or Maryville last season, it was important to keep an eye on running back/linebacker Austin Dawkins and quarterback Jonathan Baker.
The 37th Annual Lions All-Star Game gave them and dozens of other high school standouts one last opportunity to don their alma mater's helmet.
It also marked the end of the Spoofhound signal caller having to avoid his conference rival's pass rush.
Dawkins and Baker lined up on the same side of the ball on Saturday just as they'll soon do at Northwest.
"They'll get in there and get their snaps and do what they can do," Maryville head coach Matt Webb said. "It's going to be a lot of fun to watch them play."
Those two, along with Lafayette's Bryce Denton, make up some former MEC foes about to become brothers-in-arms at Bearcat Stadium.
"It's a big shock, honestly," Baker said. "You see him across from you all the time and, to witness that up close... he is a great leader and the guys buy into him."
"I've always liked Jonathan and I've always liked [Maryville]," Dawkins said. 'They're very respectful. I've never had a problem with Maryville. It'll be awesome playing with him next year."
This week of two-a-days in Warrensburg leading up the Lions All-Star Game at Central Missouri gave the former Spoofhound a chance to see the former Eagle in his backfield as a teammate rather than a defender.
"We've grown through the week and it just helped a ton to play with him throughout the week. I think it'll be great with him in the future at Northwest."
"We stayed in contact as soon as football was over," Baker added. "We're already talking about plans for next year so it should be good."
Raised mere miles from Northwest's campus, Baker is no stranger to Bearcat Football. He's happy to pluck Dawkins away from St. Joe, but that didn't stop him from hooking up with Central Grad and future Missouri Western Griffon Chad Bruder on his first touchdown this weekend.
"Yeah, don't remind me about that. Chad's a great guy and I've known him since we were really little. Hooking up with him like that, you hate that he's a Griffon, but he's a great player and they've got good talent going there."
But Baker and his fellow All-State performer will be Bearcats through and through the next time they suit up together on Saturday.
"They know where they're going together. They're for northwest," Webb said. "They're looking forward to it with some chemistry. They've got a leg up with friendships and it was just a really enjoyable experience."

Diet traps that keep you from losing
By Sandra Gordon, Pure Matters
To help you gain clarity, here are some common diet traps from the Weight-control Information Network (WIN), part of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
Myth: Fad diets will take the weight off and keep it off.
Facts: Fad diets that drastically limit calories or ban food groups may help you lose weight, but it's hard to stick with these diets over the long term. Diets that are very limiting are hard to follow; many people get bored with these kinds of diets and end up regaining the weight they lost.
Fad diets also may be unhealthy, because they may not provide all the nutrients your body needs, the WIN says. If you lose more than three pounds a week on a diet, you may increase your risk for developing gallstones. Extremely low-calorie diets may lead to problems with heart rhythm.
The fix: The best way to lose weight and keep it off is to aim for half a pound to two pounds a week. You can accomplish this by choosing healthy foods, watching your portions, and adding daily exercise.
Myth: Low-carb diets are a healthy way to lose weight.
Fact: Low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets are not balanced eating plans, the WIN says. On these kinds of diets, you may be eating too much fat and cholesterol, which may boost your risk for heart disease. You also may get too few fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Eating fewer than 130 grams of carbohydrates a day can lead to a buildup of a kind of partially broken down fats called ketones. This can lead to gout and kidney stones.
The fix: Instead of cutting back on carbohydrates, you should reduce your overall caloric intake. A healthy reducing diet includes carbohydrates, protein, and fat. This kind of diet usually is easier to follow, because it offers a wider variety of foods.
Myth: When you're trying to lose weight, you don't need to pay attention to the beverages you drink.
Fact: It's easy to guzzle more than you think because liquid calories -- from fruit and coffee drinks to beer and regular soda – don't yield much satiety, meaning psychologically you don't feel like you've eaten.
The fix: Curb liquid calories by making everything you drink between meals low-calorie or calorie-free. Drink water, seltzer, regular coffee, tea, diet soda, diet vegetable juice or lemonade. . Also, make specialty coffee drinks a splurge rather than an everyday event.
Myth: What you do while you eat isn't important.
Fact: Eating while you're doing something else, whether it's driving or answering e-mail, is a good way to inhale calories without realizing it because on-the-go calories can be dissatisfying.
The fix: Schedule at least 20 minutes for eating without the television on and without reading, which also can be distracting. Your aim is to focus on your food and savor every bite.
Myth: Starches are fattening, so you should limit them if you need to lose weight.
Fact: Foods high in starch include bread, rice, pasta, cereal, beans, fruits, and some vegetables. These foods are also low in fat and calories. They become high-fat and high-calorie when you add butter, sour cream, or mayonnaise, the WIN says.
The fix: The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that you have three to 10 servings of bread, cereal, rice, and pasta each day, even when you are trying to lose weight. Try to choose whole grains and watch your serving size: one serving is 1 slice of bread, 1 ounce of ready-to-eat cereal, or a half-cup of pasta, rice or cooked cereal, the WIN says.
Myth: Diets based on a specific food burn fat, helping you lose weight.
Fact: No foods "burn" fat, the WIN says. Foods that contain caffeine may speed up your metabolism, but they don't make you lose weight.
The fix: To lose weight, you need to reduce the number of calories you eat and add exercise to your daily activities.

Hi! I am new here & I am SO glad that I've found this forum. I wish I'd thought to look here long ago for support!
My beautiful son is 3 years & 2 months old. He has been a voracious nurser since the minute he was born & it's been a wonderful relationship that we have both enjoyed.
At this point he nurses for comfort... if he's upset or tired. He sleeps with us & wakes several times during the night asking to be nursed & then he goes right back to sleep.
I am 3 months pregnant with baby#2 & I feel that for us, it's time to wean. I've been very sick with this pregnancy & my breasts are sore. I admire the women who do tandem nurse, but I personally just don't want to do that.
So, I would like to wean my son very soon --- months before the new baby is born & he sees the new baby nursing. Our first pediatrician was on me to wean him from about 15 months. I wasn't about to wean him then & he didn't want to. We switched pediatricians. The new pediatrician supports the extended bf. I've asked her for advice on how to wean. She says to just stop. She said that he'll be angry with me for a while, but it will not emotionally scar him in any way (my biggest fear). I of course haven't attempted this at all yet & feel stuck.
Do I just "stop"? Do I explain to him for a week or two that we're not going to bf anymore & then follow through? Is that mean? Will I scar him in any way by doing that? I'm just dreading the whole process.
Any thoughts or advice are really appreciated.

Student attends Undergraduate Research Day
West Virginia Wesleyan College student Zach Lonergan, a junior biology major and chemistry and honors minor from Elkins, attended the Undergraduate Research Day on Feb. 28 at the state Capitol.
More than 100 undergraduate students presented their original research posters to legislators and the general public. Lonergan presented the research he completed during the summer of 2012 through the West Virginia IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence program at West Virginia University's leukemia research lab.
His research focused on how one chemotherapy drug can produce cancer tumor cells that can withstand the cancer treatment. He worked on identifying markers that allow the cancer cells to survive following chemotherapy.
Lonergan applied and was accepted to the program, and he presented his research to state legislators, other faculty members from the state and other undergraduate students attending West Virginia institutions. His interest in this field stems from the biomedical research involving the study of bacteria that causes Lyme disease under the supervision of Dr. Melanie Sal, assistant professor of biology at Wesleyan.
"The Undergraduate Research Day was a great opportunity to network with other undergrads doing research and demonstrate to the public and legislators the importance of undergrad research," Lonergan said. "I know it would not have been possible without the support of my Wesleyan instructors and the opportunities I have been presented with here."
Lonergan also presented his findings on the Lyme disease research at the Beta Beta Beta Biology Honor Society Regional Conference on March 22 at the University of Pittsburgh-Johnstown campus.
This type of research interest was not in his immediate plans when he entered Wesleyan almost three years ago.
"I originally wanted to attend med school, but then I realized I was interested more in the research side of medicine," he said.
He began focusing his efforts toward disease research while focusing on infectious diseases.
He has had the opportunity to travel internationally through the college, first to Salzburg, Austria for the Salzburg Global Seminar, and then to the Managua, Nicaragua, for an alternative spring break trip. Now he is using his international travel opportunities to focus more on his research interests.
Lonergan will take part in the Irish American Scholar Program in the fall of 2013 at Queen's University. His research was accepted by a committee, and his semester abroad hopefully will be spent working in research labs and gaining some valuable international research experience. He hopes to utilize this experience to springboard him into a great graduate school.
"My international travel opportunities have and will hopefully set me up for a successful graduate school application process to obtain my career goals," he said.
Lonergan hopes to one day obtain a Ph.D. in some kind of biomedical field studying diseases. His dream is to work for the Center of Disease Control or the National Institute of Health and do global disease research.
Undergraduate Research Day is an annual event held at the state Capitol to increase awareness and understanding of the importance of research that is being conducted by faculty and students across the state's higher education system.
Sponsors include the Commission's Division of Science and Research; Marshall University including the Expansion of STEM Doctoral Education Program; Marshall Health; and West Virginia University including the Office of Graduate Education and Life.

My Pre-Australian Adventures
So this post is rather delayed, but Andrew has been threatening me with a very painful death if I don't post soon, so I figured I may as well start from the beginning.
One of the great things about studying abroad in Australia, is that because of its southern hemisphere location, their seasons are swapped around. This has a couple of great effects. Firstly, I get to skip spring, for which my allergies are eternally grateful. And secondly, winter break was nearly two months long.
While I could have sat around at home and and watched TV for 8 weeks (which I would have loved), or gotten a job to earn money to spend down here (which in retrospect would have been nice), I (as Theo and Andrew and several other students did) chose to travel. However, instead of coming to Australia and exploring the vast landscape that was to be my home for the coming semester, I instead traveled around Europe.
I spent a total of about 3 weeks in France, Spain, Italy, and Holland with two of my best friends, one from high school, and one from college. The logistics were made easier by the fact that my parents had recently moved to London, so I had a base of operations in the right part of the globe.
We started off in Paris for New Years Eve, and we met up with another couple of friends who were traveling around for what was an amazing start to the new year. We spent the whole day on the 1st visiting various places around the city, only to find that unfortunately, many of them were closed for New Years Day, but we enjoyed ourselves and sampled Parisian culture nonetheless. We then took a train to Madrid, by way of a few hours in San Sebastian, a Basque town on the north coast (where there was actually a bombing a few days ago, luckily no one was hurt). We had two whirlwind days in Madrid, during which we saw Guernica, visited the Palacio Real and the Plaza del Sol, and ate dinner at the thoroughly Spanish time of 12:30 am, and then we took another train down to Seville. More palaces, more plazas, more Spanish culture, and some very strange things (like a giant rocket ship, a monorail, and a Christmas parade on January 4th) all added up to make the city one of my favorites in Spain. We then flew to Barcelona where we spent 6 reasonably lazy days hiking around the city, touring unfinished churches, and reuniting with more friends who are studying abroad there. On January 12th we returned to London, and my companions returned to classes.
But I wasn't done traveling yet. I discovered that European airfares are insanely cheap, and when I found a return trip to Venice for £14 a weekend trp was absolutely required. The city was incredible, unlike anywhere else I've been, the way the canals criss-crossed the little alleyways was awesome, and all the squares and churches were a treat to find. The buildings were almost as beautiful as my travel companion, and all the people were incredibly… well, Italian. We visited a couple of other islands in the area, and took a bus-boat from place to place. The weekend was amazing overall.
The following week, another friend studying in Europe came to visit my in London, and we spent a few days really exploring London and a few other sites around England (including Bath and Stonehenge). On the weekend, along with a pair of Haverfordians studying in England, we took a trip to Amsterdam. The canals couldn't really compare to Venice, but some of the cultural aspects of the city were very interesting to observe. I have to say the food was also rather good (pancakes and French fries… what's not to like?).
Unfortunatley, my aimless travels couldn't continue forever, and on February 18th, I turned my world upside down and flew to Australia.
I promise to make the time between this and my next post shorter than last time, and also to figure out how to upload pictures before then.
Talk to you soon!

How to Install CyanogenMod on the LG Optimus Hub ("e510")
WARNING: Incomplete page
This page has been tagged INCOMPLETE by the moderators. We feel that the page is incomplete and hence the instructions should not be followed by users at the moment. Brave users might proceed at their own risk. However if anyone knows the correct instructions they are welcome to edit the template or ping the moderators on the CM wiki IRC channel. Reason: There are no instructions to install recovery.
This guide will walk you through the process of taking the Optimus Hub from stock to having a custom recovery image and the ability to flash the latest version of CyanogenMod.
Note: DISCLAIMER
Modifying or replacing your device's software may void your device's warranty, lead to data loss, hair loss, financial loss, privacy loss, security breaches, or other damage, and therefore must be done entirely at your own risk. No one affiliated with the CyanogenMod project is responsible for your actions. Good luck.
Installing CyanogenMod from recovery
- Make sure your computer has working adb.
- Download the CyanogenMod build package for your device that you'd like to install to your computer.
- Optional: Download 3rd party applications packages, like Google Apps which are necessary to download apps from Google Play.
- Boot to recovery mode, and connect the phone to your computer through USB.
- In ClockworkMod Recovery, use the physical volume buttons to move up and down. On most devices, the power button is used to confirm a menu selection, but for some devices a physical home key acts as a selector. Some devices have touch enabled ClockworkMod Recovery, in which case you may be able to swipe to, or touch, menu selections.
- Optional (Recommended): Select backup and restore to create a backup.
- Select wipe data/factory reset.
- You have two options for transferring and installing the installation packages. The sideload method is more universal across devices, whereas the push and install method is more commonly used:
- Sideload method: select install zip > install zip from sideload. Follow the on-screen notices to install the package. The installer does not necessarily display an "Install complete." message. You can tell the install is complete if there were no fatal error messages and you have regained control over the menu.
- Push and install method: Open a command prompt (or Terminal on Mac and Linux) and navigate to the directory holding the package(s) you would like to install. On the device, navigate to the mounts and storage menu. If you see
/sdcardas a mountable volume, go ahead and mount it. If you do not see one of these partitions, then instead mount the
/datapartition. Take note of which volume you mounted. Now, push the package(s) to your device (also, see tip below):

Helpful Tip – SD card folders
CyanogenMod 10.1 and newer have multi-user support (introduced in Android 4.2). If your device has storage on the /data partition, then Android actually looks in /data/media/0/ for the first user's /sdcard/ storage. ClockworkMod recovery symlinks /sdcard/ to /data/media/ though. So, if you are pushing files to internal storage in recovery and want them to be visible in Android, you should push them to /sdcard/0/ or /data/media/0/. Here's the most frequent scenarios:
- If you're coming from a ROM with Android 4.1 or older to CyanogenMod 10 or older:
adb push update.zip /sdcard/
- If you're coming from a ROM with Android 4.1 or older to CyanogenMod 10.1 or newer:
adb shell "mkdir /sdcard/0/"followed by
adb push update.zip /sdcard/0/
- If you're coming from a ROM with Android 4.2 or newer to CyanogenMod 10.1 or newer:
adb push update.zip /sdcard/0/
