New hearing in Vt. death caseMay 01,2013
ST. JOHNSBURY A former Vermont woman who served prison time for her role in the killing of her stepmother in 2000 is asking to be free from the restrictions of probation.
Tashia Beer was accused of persuading her foster brother to shoot Vicki Campbell-Beer of Lyndon. Beer was 14 at the time. She pleaded guilty to manslaughter and served six years before being released from prison and placed on indefinite probation.
Now 28 and married and living in Las Vegas, Tashia Francis has asked to be released from her probation.
This offense was committed by Ms. Francis nearly half a lifetime ago, her attorney Pamela Marsh wrote in a motion filed on March 11. She has been punished long enough.
Caledonia County States Attorney Lisa Warren has opposed the request.
This is a murder case, Warren said Monday in court. The burden is on her to show the court that shes been rehabilitated, to show the court shes not a danger to public safety.
Judge Mary Miles Teachout granted Warrens request for a hearing, the Caledonian-Record reported.
Beer said in a statement that she is a changed person who works and supports two young children.
Beers father Randy said he would not fight her request.
I wish her to continue to be a productive citizen and progress in her life for her sake and for the sake of my grandchildren, Randy Beer wrote on March 13. I also believe at some point that I must let time begin to heal wounds; this doesnt mean I have forgotten the circumstances that took a precious loved one away from me and all who loved her.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep.

The old adage has been repeated countless times, although not in relation to the Green Bay Packers for more than two decades. In various corners of cyberspace, it is attributed to legendary Alabama coach Paul "Bear" Bryant, former NFL head coach and television personality John Madden, Pro Football Hall of Fame coach Bill Parcells and others. There are several translations, but the most commonly seen is this one:
If you have two starting quarterbacks, you don't have one.
That's where coach Mike McCarthy finds himself – or, perhaps, is pretending to find himself – entering Thursday's Thanksgiving Day game at Detroit, as he said Monday that he will prepare both Scott Tolzien and Matt Flynn to start against the Lions at Ford Field.
Perhaps McCarthy is simply engaging in some gamesmanship with the Lions, trying to keep Detroit coach Jim Schwartz guessing on who'll be his starter. Or perhaps McCarthy won't have to start either one, and the Packers' true starting quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, who suffered a broken left collarbone three weeks ago on Nov. 4 against Chicago on Monday Night Football and hasn't played since, will overcome the odds and return to action. Including their 27-20 loss to the Bears, in which veteran Seneca Wallace took over for the injured Rodgers, the Packers are 0-3-1 without their star.
Although the coach didn't rule Rodgers out Monday, he did say that the chances of him playing against the Lions are "slim to none."
"(I) had a meeting with Aaron. He would like to go (against the Lions)," McCarthy said Monday afternoon. "Frankly, based on the information where we are as far as the conversation with Aaron, the conversation with the medical staff, I would say he's slim to none, to give you what I'm thinking. That's where we are."
If Rodgers is a no-go, McCarthy will have to choose between Flynn, who rallied the team from a 16-point deficit to a 26-26 tie with the Minnesota Vikings, or Tolzien, who started the past two games but was benched with 8 minutes 22 seconds left in the third quarter with the offense in search of a spark. Both will apparently get work with the starters during Tuesday's and Wednesday's practices.
Asked why he doesn't just commit to one quarterback now, McCarthy misunderstood the question and replied, "Because I don't have to." When it was clarified that he wasn't being asked why he wouldn't publicly name the starter but why he wouldn't settle on one for preparation purposes, McCarthy pointed to the way he's had to use four quarterbacks – Rodgers, Tolzien, Flynn and injured veteran Seneca Wallace, who took over for Rodgers against the Bears before suffering a season-ending groin injury the following week against Philadelphia – over the past month.
"I want them both ready, is what I'm saying," McCarthy said. "Game plans don't always go the way you want. We got into a deal here where we're doing things we're not even practicing. So that's what we're taking a hard look at: If we can kind of bridge the gap of, I don't want to say being more conservative, (but) making sure Matt's ready.
"Matt played very well. He deserves to start. I like the way Scott has grown. So those are the things we're talking about. We're going to do the best we can to make sure they're both ready."
That's a particularly difficult approach to take on a short week, as McCarthy acknowledged that he's already had to chance plans after the team played an extra quarter of football during Sunday's tie. Perhaps during the team periods at practice – sessions that are closed to reporters – McCarthy won't split reps but instead will give the bulk of the snaps to the quarterback he's chosen to start.
McCarthy originally intended to make Tuesday's practice the more "normal" weekday practice, but because the game played out Sunday the way it did, Wednesday's practice will be the more extensive one – even though it's the day before the game.
"We've got to get two quarterbacks ready, frankly. This experience that we've gone through the last four weeks with a different quarterback in four straight games, we're taking a hard look at our preparation," McCarthy said. "Who has the ball at the beginning of the game, we'll let you know down the line. I have no announcements on that yet today.
"Obviously with four days it's difficult to get anybody ready, but we've got to make sure they're both ready."
After taking over for an injured Wallace against the Eagles on Nov. 11, Tolzien had completed 55 of 90 passes (61.1 percent) for 717 yards with one touchdown and five interceptions (66.8 rating) before being benched in favor of Flynn Sunday.
"It was very disappointing to me. I feel like I'm an accurate quarterback," said Tolzien, who scored on a 6-yard run that gave the Packers a 7-0 lead but completed just 7 of 17 passes for 98 yards before being replaced. "I don't know what the final stat line was, but I know it wasn't 50 percent. That's bad. I'm not going to try to sugarcoat it. I'm going to learn from it and keep pressing to get better."
Flynn entered the game with the Packers trailing, 20-7, and directed two touchdown drives and a field-goal drive that sent the game into overtime at 23-23. Completing 21 of 36 passes for 218 yards and a touchdown (85.2 rating), he drove the Packers to the Minnesota 2-yard line on the first possession of overtime but Flynn's third-and-goal pass to Jordy Nelson fell complete. The Packers settled for a 20-yard Mason Crosby field goal, which the Vikings matched on the ensuing series, leading to the first tie in the NFL this season.
Flynn, who was Rodgers' backup from 2008 through 2011 before signing with the Seattle Seahawks as an unrestricted free agent in March 2012, said he will be ready regardless of how many practice snaps he gets on Tuesday and Wednesday. Before Sunday's game, Flynn said he had taken eight reps – four each week – with the starters in practice.
"I don't know what's going to happen, but I'll be ready no matter if I take 0 percent, 50 percent, 100 percent of the reps," Flynn said. "I'll be ready to roll. I think I've developed the skill of improving myself without taking reps. We'll see what happens."
Asked if he feels he deserves to be the starter after the way he played against the Vikings, Flynn replied, "I don't know. I would like to start. I definitely want to. But that's not my decision to make. Whoever's out there gives us the best chance, whoever the coach feels that is. Whatever happens, I'm here and I do what they tell me to do."
Rodgers, meanwhile, has undergone further tests on his collarbone but McCarthy wouldn't elaborate on what those tests have shown or if more tests are set for this week.
"Let's be honest, he's got to practice," McCarthy said. "There's some physical rehab hurdles to get through that he hasn't reached yet. Like I said, it would be a huge stretch for him to play in this game."
McCarthy said Rodgers would have to practice on Wednesday, before the team departs for Detroit, to have any chance of playing Thursday at Ford Field.
Rodgers did not speak to reporters while he was in the locker room during the media access session. His weekly radio show 540 ESPN and ESPNWisconsin.com airs Tuesday.
The Packers (5-5-1) are still in the NFC North race because the Lions (6-5) and Bears (6-5) each lost Sunday. Despite Rodgers' injury and the team's winless streak without him, the Packers could still win the division – a fact Rodgers surely recognizes.

when can we start giving avocado to our babies? thanks!
when can we start giving avocado to our babies? thanks!
We started at exactly 6 months. In fact, it was the very first food we gave him. (He was not overly keen on it until we mashed it with some banana and breast milk, but then he loved it.)
That is a good question! I am not sure.. but I looked it up online here is the link so you can check it out.. they said at 6 to 8 months old...
However - there is a lot of fat in avocado...
What do some other ladies think...
: breastfeeding mamma to our second daughter Gwendolyn Rose born 3/26/10 and to my 31 month old sweetie Alayna.
We offered it between 6-7 months. It was one of his first foods and continues to be a good source of healthy fats for him.
Nursing the girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Mama to Daniel (12/3/06) and Lucy Jane (8/28/08)
Exclusively pumped for Lance Oct 07
Nursed until just before he turned 3 Levi Oct 09
Do you have extra milk? Consider donating!
"So I was welcomed by the consolations of human milk; but it was not my mother or my nurses who made any decision to fill their breasts, but you who through them gave me infant food, in accordance with your ordinance and the riches which are distributed deep in the natural order." -St Augustine
It was the first thing we offered DD besides rice cereal. She would gag a bit each bite but then want more! I tried doing the baby led thing and cut and gave her a sliver of it to see what she would do with it and it kept sliding through her little fingers when she tried to bring it to her mouth! So cute! I am gonna try mixing it with BM next time!
since day 1 (Sept '07) !!! so Daddy can feed Mia while I'm at work! because we both love it!
I my Husband and Daughter!!!!
It was one of my LOs first foods (after peas and sweet potatoes, I think), and he still loves it. He would have been between 6 & 7 mos. when he had it.
My boys (both hypnobirths!):
N 12/24/05 - birth center baby; nursed until Dec. 2007
G 3/21/08 - we had a wonderful homebirth!!! - still nursing
We tried it at 7 months mixed with EBM. Mia loves it and still does but I no longer mix it with anything.
PS love your LOs name!!!
wife , mom, maid , cook , taxi. All in a days work
I've always read that it's one of the best starter foods! They say that in "The Womanly Art...", too. Basically, go for it!

DS born Sept. 21 '07, 8.5lbs
Nursed for the last time Oct. 20 '08
DD born Jan. 20, '09, 8lbs 14oz
We started around 7 months and at first he didn't care for them. I kept offering and now he gobbles up at least 1/2 an avocado a day. He's tiny for his age, so the fats in the avocado are important.

Thanks to the scantiness of modern swimwear, many beaches in the U.S. seem only a small step away from a nudist colony, but the experience for first-time nude beachgoers is often still shocking.
If you're looking to ease your way into the naturist lifestyle, nudist resorts and topless beaches are available that offer a slightly less adventurous experience. However, our top five best nude beaches are the "Full Monty," so proceed with caution!
While many of the world's best nude beaches are located outside the United States, there are several beaches across the nation that encourage visitors to bare all. However, not all of these nudist havens are created equal.
Whether you're looking to get an even tan, meet people who share your naturalist values, or just let it all hang out, these are America's top five best nude beaches ...
No. 5: Black's Beach - San Diego
Who says size doesn't matter? Located between La Jolla and Torrey Pines, Black's Beach is the largest nude beach in North America and a popular destination for surfers and naturalists.
Whether you're looking to ride a big wave or just even out your tan, this nude beach is known for being safe and clean.
Nestled against high rock cliffs on the San Diego coastline, Black's Beach is deceptively intimate. However, nude newbies beware, the massive waves and relaxed atmosphere draw large crowds, so be prepared to have an audience.
Also be careful to watch for signs at Black's Beach, because not all areas of this sandy hot spot are nudist-friendly.
Our next selection is just about the best little beach in the nation ...
No. 4: Little Beach - Maui, Hawaii
If you're looking for a place to bare all in America's 50th state, Little Beach at Makena is the place to go.
While nudity is not generally allowed on Hawaiian beaches, the courts have agreed to look the other way in the case of Little Beach, making it Maui's unofficial clothing-optional destination. This beautiful strip of sand was a favorite of the hippie population during the 1960s and remains a popular destination for naturalists from all over the United States.
The swimming and snorkeling are reported to be sensational at this popular sunbathing spot. However, Little Beach is inaccessible by car, so be prepared to park at Makena (Big) Beach, and hoof it from there.
Another insider tip: Take your valuables with you or leave them at home, as theft from cars is common at Big Beach.
Next up, go clothing optional -- military style ...
No. 3: Gunnison Beach - Sandy Hook, N.J.
New Jersey might not seem like the ideal place to drop your drawers, but the nude beach at Sandy Hook draws up to 5,000 sunbathers on any given summer weekend.
The beach takes its name from Gunnison Battery, a military fortress built by the government in the 1800s. The remains of the battery are still seen today, overlooking the beach. Army soldiers stationed near the battery used the beach for skinny-dipping, and when the beach eventually opened to the public, clothing remained optional.
Because Gunnison Beach remains governed by federal law, it is the only legal nude beach in the state, where nudity on state beaches was banned in 1999.
As an added bonus, if you need a little liquid courage in order to drop trou in front of thousands of strangers, alcohol is also allowed at Gunnison Beach.

You might think making games is all about putting 40 percent awesome in a box, throwing in a pinch of zazz and calling it a SKU, but that's not true. Games, you may have noticed, are all around us, all the time.
In the video below, Carnegie Mellon professor and ex-imagineer Jesse Schell lays out a vision of the future in which our lives become, essentially, one big RPG.
Schell's discussion kicks off with some of the most unexpected gaming developments over the last few years, including:
- The sudden success of Guitar Hero.
- The Wii winning the console wars
- Webkins
- The incredible popularity of Xbox Achievements.
- Mafia Wars
"What do these have in common? A variety of psychological tricks," explains Schell, who then goes on to examine how these various gaming successes take advantage of humans instincts, and how we hunger "to get to anything real." He goes on to examine how gaming has extended to grading a class, driving a car, shopping and socializing, ending at a future where everything is a kind of game.
Seriously, watch the video. It's pretty mind-blowing. And check out the rest of our DICE 2010 coverage for more videos, news, interviews, photo galleries and more.

Thanks to massive design win with Apple with the Nvidia GeForce 9400M core-logic (also known as Ion) last Fall, Nvidia Corp. managed to massively improve sales of its core-logic sets compatible with microprocessors from Intel Corp. Apparently, Apple consumes over 50% of Ion sales, Nvidia said.
"Who are the fastest growing PC companies are in the world? I think that is Apple, Acer and Asustek, they are all huge Ion customers. […] Apple represents a little bit north of 50% of that," said Jen-Hsun Huang, president and chief executive officer of Nvidia, during a conference call with financial analysts.
It is interesting to note that Asustek Computer has not announced any netbooks powered by Nvidia GeForce 9400M/Ion chipset. The company does have notebooks featuring GeForce 9400M, however, they are hardly bestsellers, given current state of economy as well as relatively low market share of non-Intel laptops. Therefore, if Asustek is increasing acquisition of Ion acquisition, it may be preparing a netbook or nettop featuring the Nvidia core-logic.
Sales of Nvidia chipsets accounted for $185.97 million and represented 28% of the company's revenue ($664.2 million) during the quarter of Nvidia's fiscal 2010, up approximately 94% quarter-over-quarter.
"Demand was primarily driven by our chipset products designed for the mainstream AMD integrated desktop segment, as well as our chipset products designed for the Intel-based notebook segment," said David White, chief financial officer of Nvidia, during the conversation with the analysts.
According to Nvidia, sales of the GeForce 9400M/Ion chipset accounted for around 66% of all core-logic revenues for the quarter.

KEY LARGO, Fla. — Activities for visitors to the Florida Keys range from snorkeling, boating and fishing to barhopping in Key West at sunset. You don't even have to leave your car to enjoy the tranquil scenery of water and sky on either side of the toll-free Florida Keys Overseas Highway, a series of bridges and roads that connects the 125-mile chain of islands. But wherever you wander through the Keys, you are likely to encounter some of the islands' many creatures on land.
Sea life
One of the first major attractions you hit driving through the Keys from Miami or Fort Lauderdale is John Pennekamp State Park. Take a glass-bottomed boat tour to see sharks, stingrays and smaller tropical fish through the angled panels in the floor of the boat. Visit pennekamppark.com.
Snorkeling and other boating excursions throughout the Keys also offer views of wildlife.
Rescued birds
In Key Largo, the Florida Keys Wild Bird Center is a sanctuary for rescued and rehabilitated wild birds. You'll see falcons, owls, cormorants and more in large cages, but there are also wild pelicans freely strolling about. More wild birds can be found on the beach nearby. Visit fkwbc.org.
Hungry tarpon
At the Hungry Tarpon Restaurant at Robbie's Marina in Islamorada, the main attraction is what you see, not what you eat. For $3.30, customers can buy a bucket of tiny fish to toss to the hungry tarpon from a dock. Pelicans snag whatever the tarpon miss. Visit www.hungrytarpon.com.
Tiny deer
In the Lower Keys, signs warn motorists to slow down and watch for Key deer, an endangered species. The small animals with white tails can often be seen by the roadside around Big Pine and No Name Keys, which are part of the 8,000-acre National Key Deer Refuge. Visit www.fws.gov/nationalkeydeer.
The Dolphin Research Center in Marathon on Grassy Key offers hands-on training in the care of marine mammals for would-be professional caregivers and trainers. But the center also welcomes visitors daily, offering narrated presentations every half-hour with the opportunity to observe dolphins and sea lions. Visit www.dolphins.org.
The Turtle Hospital in Marathon has released more than 1,300 rehabilitated sea turtles into the wild since it was founded in 1986. Daily tours of the hospital and turtle tanks are offered. Visit www.turtle hospital.org.
Hemingway's cats
The Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum in Key West offers an entertaining look at the legendary writer's travels, his women and his passions — hunting, deep-sea fishing, bullfighting. The stories are fun to hear whether or not you're familiar with his books.
But also charming are the 40 to 50 cats that loll about, sprawling on vintage furniture, pristine bedspreads and in the yard. Many of the cats are polydactyl, meaning they have an extra toe, just like a six-toed cat Hemingway owned. Visit www.hemingwayhome.com.

The video of the day — of the year.
Some might make a stink about this, but Chase says it with such sincerity that you have to excuse it and appreciate it. Plus, look at the reactions from Cole Hamels, Ryan Howard and Jayson Werth, among others. They're floored. Their little unspoken leader made a big statement.
Mike Missanelli on 950 AM ESPN Radio made a stink about this, saying it was wrong with all the children in the crowd. You know what, they hear so much worse these days. Who cares about this? This was great.
87 Comments
No one should have a problem with it…I was at the rally with my 6 year old son. He heard it heard the crowd go crazy and repeated it directly to me. After I stopped myself from almost laughing I told him in the sternest voice I could muster that that wasn't a nice word and that was the end of that.
What a day Philadelphia we deserved it!
Philadelphia Phillies World F@#$%NG champions!!!!
Lets just chalk it up to the fact the players would have had A LOT of champagne and enough adrenaline going to stun a rhino. We know Chase is a class act and this isn't Manny territory, sure it was inappropriate but the guys earn't the right for a free pass.
People are too uptight sometimes. It's just a word. If you want to, tell your kids its not right for them to say and move on.
Not cool, and a terrible lack of class and lack of imagination as well as intellectual powers to describe the wonder of a Phillies championship. I'm sorry an otherwise seemingly classy guy displayed such a lack of class and consideration for his fans.
I also think we should not have boo-ed (after winning no less) the mention of the Rays as worthy competitors, and I wasn't even too jazzed at booing Bud Selig. We won! Why do Philly fans, no matter how victorious, just have let out vile venom and bitterness? It's not the majority, but there's a minority who just don't show class. And I'm willing to call them out on it every time they do it, even a great player like Utley, cause it diminishes them and it diminishes Philadelphia fans!
And oh yeah, the players who laughed and applauded, they displayed no class then too.
Bob, they won the World Series, not the Nobel Prize.
Bob – How old are you? 60? It's a different era man, get over it.
Tim – Is there a video on Youtube that shows Utley's entire speech? Might be good to show how he really gives props to the entire team after making that comment.
Good point, I agree with you on that one. And by the way, I'm no better than they are. In fact, I'd definitely do far, far, worse with all the adulation and adrenaline such a victory brings. So please forgive me for any self-righteousness, which is a far worse fault than a 1 second lapse of judgment in using a word.
Many of these guys really give back to the community and truly are outstanding role models. One little flub-up doesn't change that. I love these guys, and I celebrate what they were able to accomplish.
I love Chase,that was the best speech by far just the way he said it…People can hate you all they want for saying it Chase,but f u c k them,WERE WORLD F U C K I N G CHAMPIONS!!!
Matt, how young are you? It's different when you grow up.
Dropping the fbomb was tacky. Sorry, it's just bad manners. Like I said before, it's one thing between friends, another when representing your team on a stage. It makes a lot of people think a little less of you.
Sorry if you don't like that but that's the real world.
I'm waiting on the New Chase Utley T-shirt. You no it's coming and you no it will sell. Probably sell better then the BOO? F*ck you tshirt
To me it's a word. Yes it's used in hate speak, but when you boil it down, it's just a word.
Agreed Tim. That's what I said above. It's a word. It's all about how it's used and Chase did not use it in a bad way at all. I guess some people are just more easily riled up.
America gets so hyped up over language and nudity, especially in movies yet is totally ok with violence beyond repair.
Never made sense to me.
SJ – totally agree. I actually just read an article today about some theaters banning the new movie Zach and Miri Make a Porno – but those same theaters are allowing Saw 5. Seems ridiculous to me.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning cursing like that in public, but I honestly think that Utley slipped and was overwhelmed with pure emotion.
And the context it was used in has a lot to do with curses that are acceptible (or at least forgiveable) and downright offensive.
And guess what. George W. Bush has been caught cursing and giving obscene gestures (including the finger) on camera multiple times, and he's the President (thankfully for not much longer). Shouldn't people be more concerned about that?
Just wanted to point out that Harry Kalas said that Chase threw out the potential tying run at home plate.
It was actually the potential go-ahead run.
Like we don't hear that kind of talk on a daily basis here in Philly.
I can't wait for the shirts to come out "World Phucking Champions".
I'd buy one.
This is too good. I had only heard about it and couldn't find it on YouTube until this was posted, and it's so much better to see him and the crowd (and the reaction of Cole and Jayson Werth!).
Well put, Chase.
full speech is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqApsgXYdX0
i think he had every right to say what he said. they are all still in shock as are the fans. world phucking champions baby!
It was a totally "Philly" thing for him to do..I love it!
I always look for graciousness towards the opponents, especially in victory. I always look for examples of great character to point out to my young children, and for examples of arrogance. Sports supplies many bad examples, play-hogs, whiners, poor losers, etc. I will say one class act is Charlie Manuel. He has been the key ingredient to take a bunch of millionaire prima-donna players and turn them into a team. Benching Rollins, sending Myers to the Minors, sticking with loyal team players through thick and thin to much criticism, all are actions of character, principle, consistency.
My admiration for Charlie Manuel is great. And he deserves a ton more credit even than he is getting right now.
Clarification: Not all the players were millionaires yet, but by the end of the season Cole Hamels and others knew they would be on the rapid rise. Hamels only made 400,000. this year. That's crazy. I mean that's the same as the President, and we all know Hamels is way more important than the President!
When are you making the shirts?………………………………
oh yeah, such a class act he is. Lets see, the fans feel the need to start trashing and vandolize your city, and your star 2nd basemen is on national tv sounding like a drunken biker or something. What a city full of losers. I hate all of you
Phillyhater, because we know how nothing of the sort has happened like that anywhere else before. I mean, Boston didn't have any problems when they won, did they? New York has no problems every New Years, right?
And we know how no ballplayer has ever said that word. That's right, everyone is spick and span and clean.
Thank you for clearing that up with your bottled up rage that you had to hide behind an computer anonymously and go into the thick of what you hate to express it.
deanno – scroll up a few comments
That was awesome! That was hilarious. Nobody expected it from him, which made it so awesome.
I don't care what he said — he never looked hotter!
i was at the bank and it went nuts when he said that people need to relax
I'm getting a T-shirt!
I was in the CBP parking lot when he said it… the whole thing exploded!! Actually, when he said that, it finally kicked in… WE ARE THE WORLD PHUCKING CHAMPIONS! It was so emotional and special… I got my champagne bottle and sprayed everyone nearby!!! I love this team!
greatest speech since martin luther king's "i have a dream" speech. no doubt. best moment of my entire life.
Phillyhater,At least no one died when we celebrated like in Boston,and that was only after they won the ALCS.
i believe it was more of a reference to the all-star game situation and the hype that followed that. after winning the world series for this city he can say whatever he wants! utley for mayor.
let him say whatever he wants. F Missanelli.
Oh no kids, you can't hear bad mans say the F word, go run along and play your grand theft auto game.
So to all of you who believe the word is fine…….when and if you have your own children, your kids teachers can freely use this word to your son or daughter, right?
1. I believe it was said with sincerity from someone who was exhausted from the playoff effort and basking in the incredible feel of victory – the ultimate goal in a profession that very few on the planet are blessed enough to be a part of. As an adult, it's something I could imagine yelling in a bar with friends when I was in my twenties.
2. However, like one of the early posters here, my 8 year old son (who adores Chase Utley and has the shirt), immediately repeated the phrase while watching the TV and I had to correct him about the bad word. It's certainly not the most difficult parenting I've ever had to do, but it did leave my son a little puzzled about his hero.
3. I'm sure my son will continue to wear the 26 shirt and I'll continue to be a huge fan of the way Chase plays the game. If I could, I would ask Chase that the next time he gets to that podium, he handles it differently. This isn't the first time Chase let an expletive fly at the wrong moment – http://www.knucklecurve.com/chase-utley-video-utley-doesnt-like-boos/
4. I agree with another earlier poster too. I look for examples of great character as well because my sons need those examples as they grow – there are far too few of them in the world.
5. As for the crowd in general, I don't buy what someone here said about it being a different world today – that's an excuse. There's absolutely no need to boo – EVER. Just because someone wins doesn't mean someone else needs to get made fun of. The Rays, not even the Mets (who inwardly I don't care for very much) deserve to be booed at the same time we celebrate a championship. Class and character need to be a part of our world in the future – sports USED to be a vehicle to teach America's youth about these important life lessons. There's no reason we can't love our team and enjoy the historic moment without acting poorly toward others.
Go Phils, let's get another!
Chase has made a habit of dropping f-bombs. Just goes to show money and fame can't ensure class.
In an world where athletes are getting caught for DUIs, doing drugs, taking steroids, domestic abuse, and doing other terrible things, I think we can let Chase off the hook for saying one swear word. For some strange reason we expect athletes to be better than us, to be these beacons to look up to, but we tend to forget that they're only human. I was glad to see Utley say it, because it was clear that he actually cared about winning a championship. Too often in the world of sports, athletes don't care about winning, they just care about how much they're getting paid, but it's nice to see that some athletes really do care about winning a championship for themselves and for their fans. Was it the proper thing to say? Probably not. But we shouldn't be making such a big deal out of it.
i personally don't like to swear, (when i can control it). and when people have to use the F word three times per sentence, yeah that bothers me. but, while it shocked me when he said it, it didn't offend me, he summed up how we all feel, and i'm buying the shirt as soon as i can.
No one is making a big deal out of Chase saying this.
Except I do and will resent you for wearing this shirt in public. I'll probably throw a cup of something vile on you if you wear it around my kids.
Well, I probably won't do that, but if you wear that in public, and my children are around, I'll make you an object lesson of how to be a stupid, ignorant, no-class jerk.
Bob – Although I disagreed with you earlier in the post, I do agree with you on the shirt, it's pretty tacky. I hope everyone on this site purchases the "Phinally" shirt instead.
Is what he said any worse than that show on at 7;30 at night on fox. they are in bed talking sex its a disgrace.
Like others have mentioned, I saw the celebration live and when Utley said those words the entire stadium rose in an ovation and the players also reacted. Even J Roll mentioned he did not know how he was going to follow that up. Those reactions are testament to the fact that in that one moment in time that word captured all that they were feeling.
We need to remember that so called "curse" words carry much more emotion to them than your usual words. When the Phillies won I called my friends and yelled out exaclty what Chase did and we all cheered. It was because the F words had that emotion, that strength to express the raw, boundless, happiness I had at the time being. Just saying "I'm very happy" was not enough. I'm not the type to use that word all the time but at that moment, like Chase, its the one I needed.
Bob, you gotta calm down, my man. Did you hear me when i said i don't like to swear, and it offends me when others do? i resent you saying stupid, ignorant, no-class jerk. i didn't say it, i don't own the darn shirt, if i did purchase it, it would be for sleep wear. i would never wear something like that outside. Go rant at Chase, not a wholesome phan.
They say that people swear when they don't have the vocabulary to use a better word but so f*cking what, worse things have happened on a baseball stadium.
Oh relax… it's just a word. That one word summed up almost all of the fans and teams emotions waiting 28 years to be World Champs again. Kids will eventually learn that word and it was not a disgrace at all. Chase is as good a role model as any. I think some people just have such boring lives and way too much time on their hands that they have nothing better to do than complain all the time. Bob, it's 2008… come join the rest of us.
best moment of the year. chase was not the only person to scream those words all day, any kid who was there probably heard those words a hundred times before chase said it. we love it in philly, so why don't all you non-philly fans let us enjoy this the way we want to!
The objection expressed here from posters I believed is not the profanity itself (considering the emotions of the moment) but the inappropiate use in a public place where parents and their children are in attendance. Common sense, judgment and awareness of locale should should have given Utley a pause for thought before uttering the F-bomb.
I agree 100% Bruce. I couldn't help but think of Jamie Moyers' children who, no doubt like the rest of us, adore Chase Utley. It really puts us in a quandry. I often cite Chase as an example of someone who always gives everything that he has in every game and hustles every play. He is a player that is worth every penny to go to the park and watch. Now, that example comes with "baggage". That is the shame of the choice of words.
There's a time and place for everything. I laughed, but I'd rather see 'em keep it clean for the kids. Life goes on. That F-bomb isn't nearly as alarming as the behavior of Manny, for example. Actions speak louder than words… oh well.
I totally object to the shirt. it's not something you should wear, didn't mind him in the spirit of his joy saying it but the shirt no.
Bring it on Boob. Just try to pour "something vile" on me.
Have someone take a video of me turning your face into something resembling a pizza so your precious little snowflakes will remember what a jackass their father was.
what was Rocky saying?
OK, Chase shouldn't have said it with all the kids there or watching on TV.
BUT……… It's exactly what most of us wanted to say. It was great, and the reactions of Hamels, Werth, Howard are wonderful.
Rocky = Typical Philly Tough Guy. (TPTG). What a moron.
That makes me smile and laugh every time I hear it! Should have posted his comments in their entirety, where he graciously thanks the fans and acknowledges the contributions of every one of his teammates. Classy with a little blue collar jargon thrown in to bring home a point. Love that guy, you go Chase! For talking heads like Mike Missanelli: whatever. I hear worse language coming from grade school children walking past my place of business in North Philly. I'm sure he didn't say it to act the fool, but clearly to acknowledge a job well done. Cheers Chase and well done to the entire Phillies organization, we are humbled and honored by your effort.
He shouldnt have done it, but I love it. Utley's my kind of dude.
Puh-lease. I loved it. Getting him to talk or show emotion most of the year is like pulling teeth. Besides, it's not like he does it all the time – he only curses during all-star games and World Series celebrations. If these parents take their kids to any Phillies game they'll hear worse than this in the stands. Go Chase!
I loved it even though I hate the word in conversation. It was an emotional statement and drove us in the crowd into a frenzy!
I agree that Utley shouldnt have dropped the F-Bomb.
That being said though, you have to consider the situation. A World Championship after 25 years of frustration, Oilers, Joe Carter, Red Wings, Shaq and Kobe, and the Pats.
Parents should look at this as a good thing to teach kids that its not appropiate to say these words, but come on, I can probably guarentee you that most kids already know these words. Just tell your kid that he was just excited, but you never say those words, at least at their age.
I watched the parade on TV, and at first Ithought I heard Chase wrong. My husband , who's a bit of a prude, was offended for the sake of the kids listening. I figure most Philly kids have heard a lot worse. I thought Chase was awesome! Having grown up in a suburb of Philly and spending a lot of time in the city for work and pleasure both, I thought Utley was channeling the typical Philadelphia sports fan. In case you haven't noticed, we have a national reputation as being tough, passionate and very loyal. Those three words shouted by Chase "said it all……. and said it "perfectly". I love this town!
On the ride home in the car on Friday someone on the radio apologized on behalf of the station for Utley's remark, saying that it certainly isn't the policy of the station to have such words come across the airwaves (guess they were just covering themselves from a fine from the FCC). My 11-yr old son looked at me…….and it should be noted that we have taught him what bad words are and he knows that and doesn't use them………he looked at me and said, "Cmon….people just need to lighten up." I think that statement just says it all. EVERYBODY JUST NEEDS TO LIGHTEN UP!!!
Selective censorship – why does MLB have Viagra banners hanging behind the batter's box in all MLB games? Why does Cialis advertise after every inning in the post season? Isn't it easier to explain to your children that sometimes language is inappropriate but the key is to not repeat it, rather than have to explain what a four-hour erection is? Give me a break. Well-adjusted parents raise secure and well-adjusted kids and a little four letter word will not send your family into a tailspin.
As for Chase – brilliant! You spoke for generations of frustrated Phillies fans and you hit the nail on the head!
All you people who complain about Chase saying that deserve to have a few expletives said at them……..Your probably alll conservative F@#KS that are about to get takin over by the new age of AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!………DIE HIPPIES DIE
I'm with you Maria 100%!
I get it, but I didn't love it. I wasn't offended, and I don't think any children were scarred by hearing it.
I just wish, as the face of the organization, he had managed to be a little classier. It felt a little too cool for school. I'm not really psyched that our new unofficial slogan as a fan base has a big old F-bomb in it.
I still think he's a better person than 90% of professional baseball players. I don't judge him as a person because of it. But I don't think it was the best choice he could've made.
Does anyone know where I can find this in an audio file? I'd love to have it as my ringtone, though I don't know if I'm willing to part with Harry's call of the third strike…
Who is going to wear a shirt like this? Do you think some parents will buy them for their kids because they think they are cute? Will schools accept them as appropriate wear? I'm already imagining walking down the street, passing by a beer bellied guy wearing this shirt, and having to pretend that's it perfectly fine with me. I want to see Phillies Champion shirts and be reminded of a fantastic time in this city. I don't want to see the other shirt and be reminded of something far less spectacular. It won't be fair.
Missanelli is a poor mans Jim Rome. Not funny, not annoying enough to be relevant. Got fired from a lot of places for his own misconduct. Hey we're all human right? So Mike, from your glass house, you without sin, cast the first stone.
Pingback: The French are in the tank for Obama « The Edge of the American West
Only in the United States could you win your NATIONAL title and have the arrogance to proclaim yourself world champions like you do for baseball and basketball.
Both of these sports have a world championship and America is not the champion of either at this point in time.
As an outsider (I am from Ohio and a Cleveland fan), I don't see anything wrong with this.
If one of my teams were to win a title (believe me I know its a longshot) and one of my players said it, I would think nothing of it.
When Ohio State won the BCS title in 2002, Jim Tressel made a play on words about the team, saying "Not only do we have The Best Damn Band In The Land (which is what they actualy are called), now we have the Best Damn Team In The Land!"
I know this is different than the F word, but his came as a shock to all of us who follow Ohio State football and we were all good with it.
He was in the heat of the moment, anyone from Philadelphia who did not get chills from his speech is not a true Philadelphia fan. I think that culminated the entire attitude of this team. It is what it is, we have been waiting 25 years for a championship and Chase said exactly what everybody felt. I love the emotion, it shows that some of these players making millions of dollars do still care about winning and losing. Love ya Chase and love th Phils!!!
Parents who teach thier children not to use words like that have children who know not to use words like that. Don't let your children watch TV, go to sporting events, search the internet, listen to the radio, go to school, or go out in public in general if you are concerned about how badly a word such as that will effect them.
Also, Chase Utley is from Pasadena, California. Get that strait before accusing him of being a steriotypical Philadelphian. We welcome him and his language with open arms, however, because we are classless losers as much stated in here….yet you are on here saying you hate people and calling them morons….now that's class!
Get over it. The man used everyday street language that everyone hears all the time everywhere except in Court, Church, and on most TV shows. Every kid learns all those words in kindergarten. Mr. Utley is as human as we are and was expressing his happiness–as he justly has a right to do!
I have been to Phillies games and have heard a lot worse coming from Joe Schmoe sitting next to me. We Philly fans are certainly a different breed. We boo Santa Claus, the boy who couldn't find an Easter Egg and the players wive's; but we cheer the 'PH' word. It's because we are blue collar people. Go Phightins'. World 'Phucking' Champions. It's been a long time comin'.
It's so totally classless it's beyond belief, but what's worse is all the apologists posting here. It's what our world has become, a sewer with no dignity or style.
Who cares if he said a bad word. Almost all of the fans didn't care because we just won a championship! Language is just sounds we make.
It's been a couple months, but remember what Tug McGraw said on October 22, 1980?
"For years, New York City has had to take a back seat in basebasll history to Philadelphia. Well, New York can take this championship and stick it…'CAUSE WE'RE NUMBER ONE!"
People back then thought it was controversial. Chase Utley did the 2008 version.

- Title
- Formation of the Galactic globular clusters with He-rich stars in low-mass haloes virialized at high redshift
- Author(s)
- Bekki, Kenji; Yahagi, Hideki; Nagashima, Masahiro; Forbes, Duncan A.
- Abstract
- Recent observations have reported that the Galactic globular clusters (GCs) with unusually extended horizontal-branch (EHB) morphologies show a significantly lower velocity dispersion compared with that of the entire Galactic GC system. We consider that the observed distinctive kinematics of GCs with EHB has valuable information on the formation epochs of GCs and accordingly discuss this observational result based on cosmological N-body simulations with a model of GC formation. We assume that GCs in galaxies were initially formed in low-mass haloes at high redshifts and we investigate final kinematics of GCs in their host haloes at z= 0. We find that GCs formed in haloes virialized at z > 10 show lower velocity dispersions on average than those formed at z > 6 for haloes with GCs at z= 0. We thus suggest that the origin of the observed lower velocity dispersion for the Galactic GCs with EHBs is closely associated with earlier formation epochs (z > 10) of haloes initially hosting the GCs in the course of the Galaxy formation. Considering that the origin of EHBs can be due to the presence of helium-enhanced second-generation stars in GCs, we discuss the long-standing second parameter problem of GCs in the context of different degrees of chemical pollution in GC-forming gas clouds within low-mass haloes virialized at different redshifts.

Not journalism
There was no evidence of journalistic objectivity in two recent articles, Town balks at library formula and Library mulling funding options, about the Kellogg-Hubbard Library funding request from the town of Worcester.
Reporter David Taubes use of quotes from one Select Board member and the town clerk is biased reporting and misrepresents the board member and clerk roles in the library funding issue. Someday the Kellogg-Hubbard Library services could be reflected in the town governments budget as essential municipal services, but until that happens, the Kellogg-Hubbard Library funding request is still warned as a separate article. This year it is warned as Article 10 in the town report. This article will be discussed and voted on at town meeting. After the vote, the Select Board and town clerk must follow the will of the townspeople.
Reporting on the opinions of one Select Board member and the town clerk is not news. These opinions should be expressed on the editorial page. It seems like Taube had a story in mind and then sought opinions to support his angle. This is not journalism.

We have no interest in changing or placing any value on anyone's theological belief or lack of, nor will any of our plans involve proselytizing at all. We are however planning on engaging faith group members in Occupy and encouraging activism. This is about faith, actively pursuing a better future. People can have faith in many things, a friend, a belief, a story, many different things inspire faith that informs behaviour.

I spent the whole show backstage. I didn't even realize that Dennis passed. It was only at the last when Aria Hendricks talked about Dennis before she sang "The Nearness of You" that I knew. None of the cats backstage were being mournful. Whenever anyone said anything about Dennis, it was a joyful story. I introduced Mose Allison in the concert, and when Mose was singing, John Scofield and others backstage remembered that Dennis knew all the lyrics to Mose's songs. I was amazed by the who's who backstage. I remember looking over and all the drummers were hanging out. Jack DeJohnette. Kenny Washington. Lewis Nash. Paul Motian. And then Matt Wilson walked by. They and all of the others at the concert knew, learned from, laughed with, loved, and were swung by Dennis Irwin.

SyFy Confirms 'Sharknado 2' Is In The Works
World War Z, Man of Steel and Fast & Furious 6 were some of this summer's most talked about movies, but one small film topped them all in the buzz category: SyFy's made-for-TV fright-fest Sharknado.
The film aired last Thursday night on SyFy, and only 1.4 million watched, but there were more than 5000 tweets-per-minute about the b-movie between 8pm and 3am on the night of its debut, grossing over 604,000 in total, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
And now SyFy is riding that buzz, announcing that they're working on "Sharknado 2."
Asylum Films, which produced the first film, has confirmed that it will release the sequel next year.
"Every once in a while, there is a perfect storm – on television. The fans are clamouring for a sequel. Or perhaps it will be a prequel. What we can guarantee is that Sharknado 2 will be lots of fun," said SyFy's VP of programming Thomas Vitale. "We'll be announcing more details very soon. But we didn't want our fans to worry they wouldn't get their fill of more shark fin, I mean, fun next year."
The first film centered on Los Angeles, where a hurricane drove the shark population up the coast toward the city and tornadoes coming from the mountains scooped them up and dropped them all over the city to eat people. The film starred Tara Reid and Ian Ziering.
"Sharknado 2" will move the action to New York City this time, where, we presume, sharks will be driven to the area by some sort of storm and then freak tornadoes will pick them up and drop them all over the city.
We can just see the campy stereotypical scenes involving Middle Eastern cab drivers, Wall Street investors and Brooklynites now.
SyFy is hoping to cash in on the buzz again, giving fans the chance to submit their own taglines for the film on twitter.
"You heard... a #Sharknado is hitting NYC! Tweet your sequel subtitles to @SyfyMovies to name the movie!" @SyfyMovies posted on its twitter page.
So far there's no word if Reid or Ziering will return for the sequel, but TMZ reports that both stars have said they'd love to.

- Abstract
- The chirp effect on a X-ray emission intensity from a CsCl aqueous solution jet irradiated by femtosecond pulses was systematically studied. The p-polarized chirped pulses were more efficient as compared with the shortest pulses determined by the spectral bandwidth. The negatively-chirped pulses of approximately 240 fs duration produced up to 1.0 times larger X-ray intensity as compared with the transform-limited 1.60 fs pulses. The angular dependence of X-ray generation can be explained by the resonant absorption. Numerical simulations of electron density evolution due to the avalanche and multi-photon absorption supports qualitatively well the experimental observations.

This month's Top Notch Teacher first started a career in nursing to fulfill her love of working with families and children. But, she soon realized her calling was a career in teaching.
Each year she sets a foundation of fun with her students so the relationships can continue for many years to come.
When kindergartners enter Mrs. Bemis' classroom they're welcomed into a community of learners.
"I greet my children at the door. And they always have an option to give me a high-five, they look me in the eye and say good morning or they get a hug. And within the first week they're all up for the hugs. So I get a lot of lovin'," said Mrs. Deb Bemis.
Mrs. Bemis knows her boys and girls each come to school with a unique learning style, and it's her goal to accommodate every one of them.
"I make eye contact. I talk to them softly. I give them each a turn to talk. They know that they can count on that in me and because of that I can count on them to respond to me."
"Probably one of the unique things I have in my room is every month I've gone to a pet lending library and I bring in a different animal each month. Throughout the school year we've had a snake, we've had a hedgehog, we've had guinea pigs, turtles, butterflies and now we have new baby chicks."
Her hands-on learning approach makes every lesson something to look forward to.
"I just think that having animals and science and getting our hands dirty is the best learning process in kindergarten."
Aside from classroom lessons, Mrs. Bemis makes a point instill in her little ones how to care for one another.
"Greeting each other, giving eye contact, being a good friend, listening to one another. I hope when they leave kindergarten they have set their foundation of being a good friend and a community with each other."
That community she's built over the years is one of her biggest joys in all her years of teaching.
"I have had a number of children who have become friends in kindergarten who come back to me and they're in college and they're still college roommates."
What's inspiring about this month's teacher is that she'll be the first to tell you she's couldn't have made it to the top without the support of others.
"Even though I've worked a lot of years and I taught a lot of years, I learn so much from my colleagues that to say I'm a top notch teacher just puts me out there because of what they've done for me. And of course, my best teachers are my kids."
Even though the school year is wrapping up and Mrs. Bemis has to say good bye to her kindergartners, she does live near Emerson Elementary.
She shared with us that she often spends summer days on the school playground so she can have a little extra time with her students before they become first graders in the fall.

By Sharna Johnson: CNJ staff writer
A proposal by Gov. Bill Richardson that would offer income tax breaks to military members and retirees is good news to some Clovis residents.
Active-duty military personnel who are New Mexico residents, under the proposal, would not be required to pay state income tax on their federal salaries, and retirees would receive a 50 percent tax deduction on wages and salaries and other earned income, The Associated Press reported Tuesday.
Under the proposal, tax relief for an estimated 19,000 active-duty and retired military residents statewide would total nearly $18 million, the report said.
In addition to the military personnel, businesses, for-profit hospitals and tens of thousands of individual New Mexicans would receive a tax reduction under proposals outlined by Richardson, AP reported.
Jan Finch's husband is an Air Force master sergeant. The couple purchased a home in Clovis and plan to stay after he retires, she said.
A processing supervisor at Cannon Federal Credit Union, Finch said her husband still maintains Texas residency, but she said the proposed tax breaks could sway him to change legal residency and will definitely be helpful after her husband retires locally.
Obviously a political strategy timed for election, it helps Richardson get her vote, Finch said. "I would say so. Those are things you look at you — you want to make it better for where you live. I've always been raised a Republican but I definitely will vote for him. I think he's great," she said.
LeeAnn Lam, a disabled Air Force veteran living in Clovis, is the wife of a retired Air Force member. Tuesday morning she said she and her husband did some calculations of the proposed tax breaks over coffee.
"It only comes to about $700 a year," she said. "That is a little bit of a tax break. It's not a lot, but at this point anything is helpful."
While she believes Richardson is promoting his proposal in part because of the upcoming election, she said it doesn't change the good it would do for eligible people.
"I understand he wants to try to get the military to vote for him," she said. "It's to get the military people — but you know I'll take the benefits. He has done some good for the area really, so I would probably vote for Richardson again."
Lam said she and her husband have chosen to reside in New Mexico in part, she said, because of strong veteran programs and benefits. "I think that New Mexico treats its veterans fairly decent compared to other states," she explained.
As a program support assistant for the Department of Veteran Affairs in Clovis, Lam said she sees a rise in retirees choosing to stay in or move to the area recently and cites veteran programs, affordable cost of living and a slow pace of life as the reason.
But not everyone is impressed with the proposal. Donna Vannes, the wife of an active-duty military member at Cannon said she maintains residency in Texas, and neither she nor her husband has plans to switch to New Mexico anytime soon.
"I already get my tax break," she said, referring to the fact Texas does not charge an income tax to its residents.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Man who declined to attend trial convicted of sex assaultSeptember 18,2013By Patrick McArdle
Staff Writer
BENNINGTON - After deliberating for less than an hour, a jury found a local man, who declined to be in the courtroom for his trial, guilty of a felony count of sexual assault with no consent.
William O. Stanley Sr., 52, had only been out of prison for a few weeks when new charges were filed against him.
Stanley was convicted of escaping from custody in 2005. He declined to attend that trial as well.
The woman who accused Stanley said during the trial, which took place on Tuesday and Wednesday, that she and her boyfriend had gone to the Rutland jail in late September 2012 to pick-up Stanley after the end of the sentence he received for the escape charge.
The woman was related to Stanley but hadn't seen him in 20 years. She had come to Vermont from California in an attempt to reconnect with Stanley.
On Oct. 10, however, she reported that Stanley had touched her on two different occasions on that date. Stanley was arraigned on the sexual assault charge and a felony charge of lewd and lascivious conduct on Oct. 11.
The jury found Stanley not guilty of lewd and lascivious conduct.
The jury convicted Stanley of touching the woman in a Bennington motel room she was in with Stanley and her boyfriend but not for allegedly touching her, later the same day, while the woman, her boyfriend and Stanley were driving in Bennington in a truck.
Stanley was not sentenced on Wednesday.MORE IN This Just InBARRE TOWN One person was displaced in an apartment fire in Graniteville Saturday morning.

Tabitha Brown
B.A., The Evergreen State College, 2008
Biographical Note
When I was at Evergreen, I developed an interest in contemporary art history, theory, and criticism. I got interested in it, both from an artistic standpoint and for literary enjoyment. After graduation I started writing short literary pieces for art galleries in Seattle, including at the former Crawl Space Gallery and at Seattle's Lawrimore Project. More recently, while teaching English in China, I've interviewed artists in the city of Chengdu, publishing articles online about their work. Some of them reside around a famous artists' community known as Hetang Yuese. The last guy I interviewed was an American, living in China on an artist residency. This has been a unique cross-cultural experience for me, as well as a creative awakening. The image below was taken with the Chengdu artist Tang Wugang, in his studio (standing in front of two huge canvases). I look forward to doing more writing for arts publications and to developing myself as an arts writer.

Latest Publication Title
An American Artist in Chengdu II: From Cave To Sky
Publication Excerpt
Walking through the show you can observe Kerr's layering of symbolism, and the mythological and astrological signs in his paintings. At times, gestures and figures seem to disappear and re-appear at a glance. The artist wants his whole process to be embedded and reflected in the content and philosophy of the work; because there is a fluid, narrative quality, images in "Cave to sky" often transform themselves before the viewer, literally morphing with the eye.
Two of the show's most striking works, a pair that when placed together are titled "Cave," may be arranged differently. Laid out horizontally, the bedrock of a cave dwelling can be seen; placed vertically and side-by-side, they make a man's torso. A clever introduction to the imaginative shape-shifting in Kerr's layered forms.
"The Prince Who Lost His Horse" reveals that same transformability and shape-shifting. The artist was propelled by his own struggle with unwanted adversity, trial and error, which then took on deep psychological significance as it was explored on canvas. The combined "Prince" and "Horse" are layered between shadowy, spectral forms of the archetypes, and are even revealed in a pair of monograph figures that seem to be a sort of metaphysical shorthand.
Additional Publications
"Passive Analog Controls" - (Seattle, WA)- article to accompany the work of artist Derek Larson at Seattle's Crawlspace Gallery, 2009
"Spite"- (Seattle, WA)- contribution to writers' chapbook accompanying the work of four local artists at Seattle's Lawrimore Project Gallery, Spitehouse, 2009
How did Evergreen help you in your career?
Evergreen inspired me to look at contemporary art in more thought-provoking, challenging ways. There was also a deep emphasis on sustainability and cross-cultural awareness in the curriculum. Through this I learned that the role of the artist is not just to give us a picture of the world as we already know it. Our role in the 21st century is to demand a different picture, and we should constantly be challenging and shaking the foundations of established knowledge. My job as an artist and writer is to re-conceptualize the world as a more connected place. This whole process of re-conceptualization begins fundamentally with what I create. So my job is to create something different.

On Golden Pond
For fathers over 80, there's a chance they may live in assisted living or a retirement home.
Such facilities often have onsite barbers with gift certificates. Many offer occasional bus trips for an extra fee. If Dad isn't driving anymore, pay for taxis or a car service to take him where he wants to go.
If Dad can't travel, bring family members to him. That's another good use for your frequent flier points: to fly in his sister from St. Louis who he hasn't seen for five years.
Program his television remote, and make an easy-to-read instruction to reprogram, using 14-point type that older eyes can easily read.
All these gifts have one thing in common, your involvement. Dad doesn't want more socks, he wants time with you! Make sure your Dad knows that "He's the Greatest!" this Father's Day.

Colonial Marine Corps
From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide
(Redirected from Marines)
The Colonial Marine Corps is a branch of the Colonial Forces tasked with ground combat operations and ship-board security.
Galactica initially had about thirty Marines left, although there are no snipers among them (TRS: "Bastille Day"). This number increased drastically with the addition of the battlestar Pegasus to the Fleet.
Between "Pegasus" and "Exodus Part II", it is estimated that Galactica had at least 100 marines considering the arrival of Pegasus. The crew transfers might suggest some Marines from Pegasus were integrated into the crew of Galactica since there were Marines being trained aboard Pegasus (TRS: "Razor").
After Pegasus's destruction, a number of Marines are integrated into Galactica's crew. During a briefing between Colonel Tigh and Admiral Adama, Tigh says "A hundred Marines too weak to work, two hundred more about to drop", which implies that there are now at least 300 Marines, probably accounting for the Pegasus survivors (TRS: "The Passage").
A Marine's duties include guarding the CIC and the brig as well as other critical areas on the ship, and assisting the Master-at-Arms (TRS: "Litmus") and are part of Raptor boarding parties (TRS: "Bastille Day", "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II", "Resistance", "Pegasus"). Naturally, they are also responsible for repelling enemy boarding actions (TRS: "Valley of Darkness"). Admiral Adama's quarters are constantly under marine guard, and the same is true for President Roslin when she is aboard ship. A Marine is also tasked with serving Admiral Adama's food (TRS: "A Day in the Life").
Very few Marine officers appear to be stationed on Galactica; when they are shown on missions, usually Fleet officers command the Marine units. Crashdown's actions on Kobol (TRS: "Fragged") suggest that Fleet officers are cross trained in conducting ground operations. The only Marine officers shown so far are Lieutenant Terry Burrell (TRS: "Sacrifice") and an unnamed lieutenant in "Escape Velocity".
Marines are evidently untrained in crowd control, as the actions on the Scylla and Gideon demonstrate. In each of these situations Marines react with little discipline to enraged crowds (TRS: "Razor", "Final Cut"). Marines are also present enforcing an order restricting public congregation (TRS: "Escape Velocity").
Colonial Marines are also called "jarheads". Like the Colonial Fleet, the Corps has a reserve component (TRS: "Final Cut").
Colonial Maries play a major part in the Battle of The Colony. They are apart , Assault 1, Assault 2, and Reserves. Unlike their normal patrol and guard duty's they seem to be very heavily armed and well equipped. With machine guns, extra ammo, Grenades, and Flight Suits. They also seem to have Call Signs or Code names for possible use over coms. They take heavy casualties with many of which prove to be fatal.
Rank Structure
Only the ranks of the enlisted crew have been established in detail so far, but it is known that the rank of lieutenant exists. See military ranks for details.
Known Marines
Status Unknown after the Mutiny
Status Unknown after New Caprica
Real life costuming notes
The Colonial Marine Corps battle uniforms appear to be based on those of the U.S. Army's Delta Force or the counter-terrorist branch of the British Army's Special Air Service Regiment. Besides their black combat uniforms, the weapons and personal combat equipment of the Marines are similar to what today's police SWAT teams and anti-terrorist special forces units utilize.
To date, the Marines have appeared in either an all-black BDU (aboard ship) or an olive-drab/green BDU (planetside, as in "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I"). There is evidence that the Colonial Marine Corps do utilize digital camouflage uniforms like the real-life United States Marine Corps with their MARPAT digital camouflage uniforms, but it appears that the wearing of digital camouflage uniforms are restricted to regular Colonial Marine Corps forces while the Marines serving as security personnel on the warships of the Colonial Fleet are issued solid-color combat uniforms in black, khaki, and olive-drab. One piece of evidence that the Colonial Marine Corps do utilize digital camouflage uniforms can be seen the in the episodes "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I" and "Part II" when the rescue team that is deployed to Caprica have "woodland" digital camouflage backpacks on their backs. Furthermore, in one of the Razor Flashback episodes, two Colonial Marine medics are wearing "woodland" digital camouflage uniforms on Galactica's hangar deck. Digital camouflage is also used by the landing party on Kobol in "Home, Part II" (by both William and Lee Adama), as well as the Shore Patrol personnel in "Scattered". By todays standards the Marines are lightly armed. When Lee Adama is rescued by a Marine fire team when one of them fires a explosive round from his sidearms. He tells Lee the Centurions can only be destroyed with explosive round and that was their last one. If the fireteam had destroyed At least one Centurion that may emply that they carry only one explosive round. It is also seen that the Marines do not carry Gearnades other than a flash bang He That Believeth In Me. The Marines also appear not to have Armor plating in their combat vest and being that todays Marines mostly do have Armor plates in their Combat Vest.
To outfit the Marines, the show's costume department appears to use the following real-world items:

Solar Panels Provide Environmentally Friendly "Energy Conservation" at Bluefield State College (w/photos)
CreatedFriday, February 18 2011
Created byJim Nelson/Media Relations - (304) 327-4103 email@example.com
(Bluefield)—Solar energy panels have been installed at Bluefield State College, as a result of a $40,000 "Energy Conservation Grant" from the Thurgood Marshall College Fund/Department of Energy. The award has covered the cost of a research project to promote adopting solar energy to illuminate a primary parking area at the College and to train BSC students in solar panel installation technology.
Dr. Tesfaye Belay, a faculty member at Bluefield State College, submitted the grant and was awarded for one year from July 2010 through January 2011. The BSC Offices of the Vice President of Financial and Administrative Affairs, the School of Arts and Sciences, and the School of Engineering Technology & Computer Science were the major parties engaged to implement the research project.
Electrical Engineering Technology Professor Roy Pruett introduced the energy conservation project (solar panels) to his Power Systems Class during fall 2010 semester. As a result, BSC students Jason Roten, Garry Viars, Bernie Maynard, and Daniel Seide participated in class assignments, including a research paper on energy conservation. Additionally, the solar panel locations, type, system and installation set-up were determined through the participation of BSC students, faculty and administrative staff. Energy generated from the panels will be used to illuminate the campus parking lot adjacent to the Brown-Gilbert Basic Science Building.
"The project is also designed to reach out into the community to increase understanding and utilization of solar energy technology, reduce the College's electricity costs, and increase students' knowledge of the principles of solar energy conservation," noted Dr. Belay, an Associate Professor of Biology at BSC. "This grant permits Bluefield State College to illustrate how an energy conservation program can benefit students, administration and community."
