Ray and Janay Rice (formerly Palmer) walked into a New Jersey courtroom Thursday morning holding hands. It was stark in contrast to the leaked altercation that occurred in an Atlantic City casino in February.
Despite that incident, Rice and Palmer appear to have moved forward (in the public eye, at least), getting married shortly after Rice was charged with third-degree aggravated assault. In addition to ostensibly smoothing over his personal relationship, Rice's employer has remained firm in support of the former All-Pro running back. That being said, there are still many who are unsure about the penalty for Rice's actions, and many suspect that even if the running back avoids jail time, he will be reprimanded by the league office.
But will Ray Rice see jail time?
The reasons that Rice was in the courtroom this morning were twofold — however, both were with the intention of avoiding incarceration. If all goes according to plan after today, Rice will be accepted to a pretrial intervention program. New Jersey uses this program for first time offenders "when such services can reasonably be expected to deter future criminal behavior." If Rice's application is approved, he would have no criminal record from this transgression.
In the event that his application is denied, Rice also proposed a plea deal that would require probation and anger management classes. In this proposed plea deal, Rice would similarly avoid prison.
It is clear that Rice has been given sound counsel through this process, and it appears less and less likely that he will spend time behind bars. That being said, the situation with the NFL is an entirely different story.
I know they say all press is good press, but the NFL would beg to differ. In a league that repeatedly insists it doesn't harbor a violent culture, actions like Rice's in Atlantic City are not going to be left untouched. So while Rice will likely avoid steep punishment from the state of New Jersey, the same cannot be said about Roger Goodell and company. Most suspect a four game suspension is imminent.
In any event, it seems Ray Rice is out of the thick grass and onto the rough.

Had a great time horse back riding .. my daughter rode apache and loved it . She also loved the miniature pony 😀
What an awesome 2 hour trail ride. Glad we listened to the recommendation of Ponderosa Campground. Best trail ride we've ever done.
4 adults and 2 teenagers rode here last week, and all agreed it was the best trail riding we had ever done. Our group is very talkative and not the easiest to organize, however our trail guide, Riley, did a great job guiding us up steep mountain slopes and answering constant questions for two hours. She even did a trick...
This was a true trail ride, not a ride down roads. The terrain would be a challenging hike with the various type of surfaces. Horses were healthy & very pleasnt. Staff was professional & polite (they are cowboys). Did the 2 hour trip & was worth the cost. Our teanagers enjoyed it. Highly recommend.
Our family of four (myself, my husband and two daughters ages 11 & 14) took the two hour trail ride yesterday and it was super. The views were spectacular and our sweet Australian guide Tom was great. For families with smaller kids I'd recommend the one hour ride.
We didn't need reservations. Cash only. $50 each for two hour ride....
We enjoy riding at Cedar Mountain Trail Rides. The staff are fantastic. My son has ds-asd and is always treated with respect and patience. The price is right and I like giving them our business because they have the best customer service we have experienced.
Did the two hour ride - no reservations needed and got right out. We are a family of 4 (kids are 13 and 10) and we were able to go with just the 4 of us and our guide which was great! We also got to stop along a ridge and pick up some geodes which my wife and daughter...
My older daughter wanted to ride horses and we found this place just west of Cody, close to our hotel. It turned out to be a great experience for all 4 of us! We paid $35 per person for an hour ride and Jessica, our guide, was wonderful, calm, sweet, funny, great guide. I couldn't believe how much of the...
We had a short window of time we could ride and we stopped in quick and they were able to get us right out! 4 of us went for a 2 hour ride. It wasn't one of those rides with 20 strangers and you find yourself bored, it was fantastic! I grew up with horses but was riding with green...
We enjoyed very much our 1 hour ride on experienced horses in this nice place. Our guide was very friendly and ex plaines to us a lot of things. We would go back to CMTR.

There are a number of experienced professionals in the Los Angeles, CA, area who can help you avoid these pitfalls and become a fluent French speaker.

Talk about quiet. This guy is super quiet and smooth. No worries about anyone hearing what you are doing with this one. I love that and would be sold on that alone.
I noticed this vibrating cock ring when I was looking over the other OVO types of rings. I thought it looked bit sleeker than the others and thought it would look very cool around my best friend's cock. It's compact and holds firmly in place. I like that it's made of silicone too because it just feels like a higher quality than others you can get and it holds up better over time. The vibrations are actually more intense than I thought. Other models have numbs and other interesting bits that stick out but even with this smooth surface the experience is very satisfying. The grey colour just gives that contrast we like, but there are a few good colours. We may just pick up another one in red.

DIA Director Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, shown here speaking at a meeting in 2012, says DIA has to 'break down legacy walls' to emerge as an innovation leader. (Army photo)
"Innovation" is pretty big as far as government buzzwords go. Often found hand-in-hand with "doing more with less," the idea of innovation is one that seems to excite leaders and frequently surfaces in briefings and talking points.
But what is actually getting done? Who is really out there taking innovation for a spin?
The intelligence community might not immediately seem like the leader, but if the Defense Intelligence Agency has anything to say about it, it is in the driver's seat.
"The agency was established to understand the plans of the adversary. In the process of that, we became an organization that focuses on planning," said Dan Doney, DIA's chief innovation officer. "Planning and sticking to the plan are the opposite of innovation. Innovation is deviating from the plan, rapidly moving it and changing. When it comes to innovation, we haven't had a great reputation. Put that in the past."
Today, DIA is moving forward with what officials call an entirely new approach -- one that eradicates traditional silos, aggressively seeks outside input and quickly implements new ideas. The objective is to avoid strategic surprise and push forward with a new way of conducting the government's intelligence business after more than a decade of war.
"We have to break down legacy walls," DIA Director Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said at the agency's June 27 Innovation Day at its Washington headquarters. "Innovation is not just about technology -- it's about a lot of things. Pay close attention to how this organization has adjusted and what we're working toward.
Training, education and professional development are a big deal. We can't lose the gains from the last decade."
The biggest area of focus in DIA's new approach is information sharing. The year-old Intelligence Community IT Enterprise (ICITE) is designed to link the 17 intelligence agencies and significantly reduce IT costs.
Among DIA's contributions to ICITE is the Innovation Gateway, an online information-sharing environment that forges easier connections between the intelligence community and industry. The goal is to help the agencies identify and adopt better solutions, particularly those that might not have surfaced without such a system. "No more middle man," Doney said. "No more cloudiness, no more special relationships where you need to know the right person to know what we're looking for."
Reaching out to industry
Users access the gateway via DIA-granted public-key infrastructure credentials. Much of the environment uses a wiki-style format, which is fitting for a system designed to free people from the constraints of standardization.
"There are some tricks associated [with] making a coherent environment that isn't coherently planned, but the first place you show up to...is a wiki, where you're made aware of the capabilities of the space," Doney said. "Underneath that is a description for how a technology provider participates in the space...and they're able to offer their technologies within the space, they're able to link to a set of core services" for others to access.
To protect against potential theft of intellectual property, the system has safeguards in place in the form of what Doney called stakeholder management authorization.
"One of the advantages is that providers host their own [areas], so they maintain complete control over their own capabilities, technologies and configurations," Doney said. "They're not constrained by other people's ways of doing things."
The gateway is still in its early stages, but officials expect initial operating capability in December. Reaching critical mass in terms of users will be the key to the project's success and progress, Doney said. He likened getting there to the early days of Wikipedia, when the popular online resource relied on passionate early adopters to generate content.
"The first phase is the hardest," he said. "It takes action and energy to get over the initial barriers."
Measuring results
Another tricky aspect of the Innovation Gateway is measuring success, particularly by traditional government models, officials said.
"There's not going to be one way to look at it and either you passed or failed. It's going to be all-encompassing," said Janice Glover Jones, DIA's deputy CIO. She added that productivity is one key marker, but success writ large will be a little tougher to define. "And even if you fail, you get lessons learned." Doney, too, indicated that the focus should be on the less tangible goals.
"Innovation is a means, not an end," he said. "We're driven by mission, so the bottom line is how much better are we able to execute on our mission, not whether or not we're the best innovators in the world. It's a mistake many folks make to measure the means instead of the ends."
Still, he pointed to his "stretch goals" as crucial milestones, such as the 30-day transition requirement that reforms discovery, evaluation, integration and acquisition. Other goals are characterized by the existence of cross-functional teams of analysts, collectors and technologists who work together seamlessly; rapid access to tools and capabilities; and the availability of mission-relevant data.
The goals illustrate the agency's wider drive to get back on track after the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, which drastically changed the business of government.
"We've exercised the wrong muscles. We have to go back to a place where we exercise the right muscles and think about how we conduct business," Flynn said. "We have to allow for failure.... It's a risk, but that's OK. The return on investment on risk is so good."
Editors' note: This article was modified to correct Janice Glover Jones' title.

The Department of Commerce is revising its confidentiality agreement for statistical data survey respondents to reflect the fact that the Department of Homeland Security could see some of that data if it is captured by the Einstein system.
In a Feb. 17 memo, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis told senior leadership to establish teams to look for duplication across the armed services in business operations, including in IT and cybersecurity.
State election officials had more questions than answers after a Department of Homeland Security presentation on the designation of election systems as critical U.S. infrastructure.
The government desperately needs younger talent to replace an aging workforce, and experts say that a freeze on hiring doesn't help.
The Department of Veterans Affairs will test an internally developed scheduling module at primary care sites nationwide to see if it's ready to service the entire agency.
After missing in the last Congress, drafters of a bill to encourage cloud adoption are looking for a new plan.
Good on DIA. Get out of the box, give it a try, learn and press forward. As some may recall, DIA and its DoDIIS community long lead the defense and intelligence community in IT innovation.
General, you're not going to solve problems using technology that created these problems. Put the security in the data. Protect the asset and give access only to those with a need to know.
A simple test for DIA's Innovation.... A person DIA employee fully feels free to email Lt Gen Flynn with an idea or pitch. Without such unrestricted flow of info... and the curent many layers of filtering.... you CANNOT have an innovative organization. Its just talk. Because DIA is so large and these filters to many, DIA will never acheive the wasted words of this article (and of my response).

Super Falcons and Arsenal Ladies striker, Asisat Oshoala, has been unveiled as the face of the 2016 Women Federation Cup, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.
The unveiling ceremony which was organised by HS Media Group, in conjunction with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), was held on Tuesday inside Sports Bar, Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos at a media parley.
Present at the event were Chairman/CEO, HS Media Group, Taye Ige, NFF 1st Vice President, Barrister Seyi Akinwunmi, Lagos State Sports Commission, Deji Tinubu and former Super Falcons keeper, Ann Chiejine.
In his speech, the Chairman/CEO, HS Media Group, Taye Ige gave reasons Oshoala was picked as the face of this year's women's Federation Cup.
"Specifically, our gathering here today (Tuesday) concerns the women's game with a special focus on the Federation Cup for which the Nigerian international, Arsenal Ladies Football Club of England star and former two-time African Player of the Year, Asisat Oshoala is being unveiled as the 'Face of 2016 Women Federation Cup'," Ige stated.
"Like its male counterpart, Nigeria's elite women football competition, the Women Federation Cup which is only second in prestige to the Nigerian Women Football League, has experienced a steady decline in all areas until recent efforts by the executive committee of the NFF.
"The competition which is a platform for celebration of female football and discovery of hitherto unknown players to feed our national teams has dwindled in perception and consequently failed to hold on to existing sponsorships or attract new ones.
"The result is that the competition has solely been financed by the NFF from its meagre resources."
Ige stated further:"Friends, the purpose of our gathering here today (Tuesday) is to acquaint you of a modest attempt by HotSports Nigeria Limited, to bring back the glory days of the Women Federation Cup.
"Our choice of Asisat Oshoala is hinged on our firm belief that, as the most outstanding female footballer in the Continent of Africa today, she represents a role model for millions of our young girls (and I dare say boys) aspring to make a name for themselves in football.
"This giant step will, no doubt, also open a floodgate of leveraging opportunities for stakeholders at various levels such that the tournament will become the brand and bride of choice for corporate bodies in the future."4years ago My wife left me,because i was too WEAK in bed,but today she calls me Bed Champion.Now i finally discovered a Natural Solution that forces women to ask for more.

Women, Fire, and Dangerous Things Women, Fire, and Dangerous Things: What Categories Reveal About the Mind
Why Care About Categories Categorization is basic to experience. We categorize things automatically in order to make sense of the world. The majority of our words and concepts represent categories. These terms, representing categories, are how users navigate websites.
What the PB Book Lacks.... A cohesive theory of how people form categories. Definitive principles on what makes a good category, regardless of context. What if we could apply the key findings from experiments throughout the history of category theory in order to predict how users will label the content in a website, saving time and money in usability research?
George Lakoff "Our brains take their input from the rest of our bodies. What our bodies are like and how they function in the world thus structures the very concepts we can use to think. We cannot think just anything - only what our embodied brains permit." Professor of Cognitive Linguistics at the University of California at Berkeley since 1972. Most famous for his ideas about the centrality of metaphor to human thinking, political behavior and society. Began his career as a student of Noam Chomsky at MIT.
Criticism "Lakoff's book is a tremendous piece of scholarship and an intellectual achievement of the first order." – Raymond W. Gibbs, Jr. "The latest offering from one of the foremost linguists of our time should not be missing from any library that claims to have holdings in the humanities, cognitive science, or education." – Terence M. Odlin "Stop! The! World! For! A! Moment!" - Alexander Johannesen "Lakoff's Germanic thoroughness comes as no unmixed blessing; the lay reader, at least, may find interest in the author's ideas drowning in a sea of repetition and restatement..." – Raymond W. Gibbs, Jr.
Classical Categories Defined by shared properties. Have clear boundaries. Conceptualized as abstract containers with things either inside or outside. Reflect categories in nature. Set theory – reality characterized by abstract entities, properties of entities, and sets of entities. Categories formed only through union, intersection, and complementation of sets (Venn diagrams)
Limitations of Classical Categories According to classical category theory: No member of a category has any special status. All levels of a hierarchy are important and equivalent. Wittgenstein: central and non-central members Austin: some categories don't show family resemblances Berlin: a single level of classification (the genus) is psychologically basic because human capacities for perception are utilized in the same way.
Basic-Level Categories Basic in Four Respects: Perception: overall perceived shape; a single mental image; Gestalt. Function: interaction with the world. Communication: Shortest, most commonly used terms; first words learned. Knowledge Organization: Most attributes of category members are stored at this level. Categories that are cognitively basic are at the middle of the general-to- specific hierarchy.
Rosch Prototype Theory Classical theory also holds that: If categories are defined only by properties that all members have, then no member should be a better example of the category than another. But, Eleanor Rosch found that categories, in general, have best examples, called prototypes, and that human capacities – such as imagination – play a role in categorization.
Prototype Effects Assymmetries within a category Prototypes, stereotypes, or otherwise "typical" examples of things Demonstrated empirically (people are slower and less certain when categorizing "atypical" items (e.g., Is a penguin a bird? Is a lamp a piece of furniture?)) Imply not that some members are "less" members, but that category has additional internal structure, central to meaning and inexplicable by a (fuzzy) set theoretic model. o
Idealized Cognitive Model (ICM) Thesis: We organize our knowledge with complex structured wholes (gestalts) called Idealized Cognitive Models. Category structures and prototype effects are by-products from attempts to fit these ungraded ICM's to the world. Bachelors? men in long-term unmarried couplings? boy abandoned in jungle to mature in isolation? the Pope? Combine to form clusters more psychologically basic than individual models
Structuring ICMs Kinesthetic Image Schemas are concepts that metaphorically structure complex concepts (ICMs) ICMs + basic schemas explain category structures: radial (central member + extension principles) metaphoric (mapping from experiential to abstract domain) metonymic (part stands for whole) foster mother birth mother adoptive mother surrogate mother genealogical nurturance birth marital genetic
"More is up, less is down" In addition to structuring complex ICMs, image schemas are directly understood structures of their own Container, part-whole, link, interior-exterior, boundary, center- periphery, source-path-goal, up-down, front-back, linear-order Experiential basis Structure our experience preconceptually Metaphors map schemas to abstract domain, preserving logic Set theory = interior-exterior, boundary, container + basic logic + metaphors
Women, Fire, and Dangerous Things "On those remote pages it is written that animals are divided into (a) those that belong to the Emperor, (b) embalmed ones, (c) those that are trained, (d) suckling pigs, (e) mermaids, (f) fabulous ones, (g) stray dogs, (h) those that are included in this classification, (i) those that tremble as if they were mad, (j) innumerable ones, (k) those drawn with a very fine camel's hair brush, (l) others, (m) those that have just broken a flower vase, (n) those that resemble flies from a distance."
Case Study: Dyirbal Classification Bayi: men, kangaroos, possums,bats, most snakes, most fishes, some birds, most insects, the moon, storms, rainbows, boomerangs, some spears,etc. Balan: women, bandicoots, dogs, platypus, some snakes, some fishes, most birds, some fireflies, scorpions, crickets, the hairy mary grub,anything connected with water or fire, sun and stars, shields, some spears, some trees, etc. Balam: all edible fruit and the plants that bear them, tubers, ferns, honey, cigarettes, wine, cake Bala: parts of the body, meat, bees, wind, yamsticks, some spears, most trees, grass, mud, stones, noises and language, etc.
Bayi: (human) males; animals Bala: everything else Balam: nonflesh foods Balan: (human) females; water; fire; fighting
Rethinking Category Theory (and Linguistics, Philosophy, AI, IA...) Categorization in language is more often radial and metaphorical than hierarchical, and experientially-based Regardless of category type, general principles persist: centrality chaining experiential domains idealized models specific knowledge the other no common properties motivation
PB Book on Organization & Labeling Organization schemes are often ambiguous, and should include topical access to content. Polysemy can make topical categorization difficult! Hierarchies form the basis for organization. Balances must be struck between: exclusivity and inclusivity breadth and depth When designing a labeling system, consistency is stressed, and various sources, including social tagging, are suggested for ideas.
PB Book on George Lakoff Make use of already-persistent image schemas and metaphors to structure navigation of websites (link, source-path-goal, up-down, center-periphery, part-whole) Construct basic-level categories (think gestalts!) Cleaner, more orderly, clean borders among categories may be drawn by choosing prototypical elements to represent categories Design navigation aids to move users to basic-level categories as soon as possible.
Example: University of Michigan Library
Jorge Luis Borges, Information Architect If more than one classification scheme exists for a given set, how do we choose one over the other? How do we evaluate the internal coherence of a given classification scheme? Classification schemes can't be evaluated abstractly, a priori. As miscellaneous categories do exist in our minds, even if their use in a navigation system may be problematic, choice and coherence need to be assessed in respect to an empirical paradigm: context, goals, users, the cultural climate from which the classification stems. Instead of top-down and bottom-up design models, try an up-and-down model where classification process starts in the middle, from the basic-level categories, grouping them in super-categories and splitting them in subordinate, more specific classes.
