Victim of Josh Carrier speaks after ex-cop sentenced to 70 years
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Convicted child molester and former Colorado Springs police officer Joshua Carrier was sentenced to 70 years to life in prison in front of a packed courtroom that included his young victims and their families.
"It's just a constant thing I deal with, and now it's over," said Troy Reader, one of the victims in the case who's now in ninth grade. "I feel like all the stress is off my shoulders. And I'm happy about it."
It's been a long ordeal for Reader and 21 other boys in the almost two years since Carrier was arrested for possessing child pornography. Carrier was a school resource officer and volunteer wrestling coach at Horace Mann Middle School. His wrestling skin checks, where he fondled boys' private areas and even filmed himself doing it with a web camera, were the crux of the molestation case.
Reader said his friends at school know what happened, but he's not ashamed to speak up.
"Now that this has gone on, I'm proud of it-- that I can stand up for what happened to me and say it happened and still be myself around them," Reader said.
Reader, his parents and other victims' families said they believed justice was served even though Carrier could have gotten a lot more time in prison for sexually abusing 18 boys.
"I'm glad he got his time," said Matthew Kurvink, Reader's step-dad. "I'm glad all the families do feel it came through in the end and the guy's not going to walk out the door today."
Prosecutors in the case say the victims showed great courage.
"I don't know how many of us adults can really understand how difficult it is to get up on the stand and testify about the most vulnerable moment of your life, when it's embarrassing" said prosecutor Amy Fitch. "It would be hard for us adults, but kids that age, it's awful."
Carrier's attorney, Josh Tolini, said that Carrier is looking forward to the appeals process. He said it would be about two years before an appellate court would hear the case. Tolini said Carrier will have a public defender from now on because of financial reasons.
Tolini and the district attorney's office aren't in agreement about when Carrier will be eligible for parole. Tolini said it will be after Carrier serves 75% of his 70 year sentence. The district attorney's office says Carrier could be released early for good behavior, but that it's unknown when that could be. Carrier got credit for more than 400 days of time already served.

Love it, you brought that piece of fabric to life.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Love it, you brought that piece of fabric to life.
You have a great talent. Your quilts are beautiful
nice quilt and quilting
how sweet, a different design for wild life. I love it, and of course as always I love your work, Charisma.
Some people visit paradise, I live there.
OMGoodness. ..that is stunning.
When it seems like the world is falling to pieces remember that the pieces are falling into place. We are nearing closer to the End Times.
Beautiful work, Charisma! I love the way you fit each individual quilting design to the item. Very nice.
The purpose of our lives is to give birth to the best which is within us.
~Marianne Williamson
I am in awe of your quilting. I look at the deer in the last picture and can't imagine how you outlined that so perfect. I would think it would be more difficult to do that kind of detail on a long arm machine. I would buy this quilt (the colors are perfect for my living room).
AWESOME!!!! You definitely succeeded in bringing this quilt to life...
it's lovely!

Last week there was a bullshizz story going around that actor Sacha Baron Cohen had been BANNED from attending the 84th annual Academy Awards for fear that he might cause controversy either on the red carpet or on the show itself. Seemingly — as if he expected to be BANNED in the first place — Cohen in character as General Aladeen from his film The Dictator released a video message in response to the alleged ban. Then, miraculously, the Academy relented and told Cohen he could walk the Oscar red carpet. AND TO EVERYONE'S SURPRISE (but not really), he pulled a stunt on Ryan Seacrest on the Oscar red carpet last night by accidentally pouring the "ashes of Kim Jong-Il" all over him. SHOCK! Click below to watch the orchestrated farce, in case you missed it the first time.
I find it very hard to believe that anyone at ALL believed even for one second that this whole sham wouldn't turn out exactly as it did. I think we all knew from the very start that the banning was planned to help Sacha Baron Cohen promote his new film. If it weren't for the initial ban, we wouldn't have known to be on the look out for last night's planned stunt:
As far as stunts go, it wasn't even a very good one. I'm utterly convinced that not only was the Academy in on the joke but so was Ryan Seacrest (amazingly, Ryan had an exact Burberry tuxedo ready to go, which he immediately changed into). I don't think this stunt did a thing for getting me interested in seeing The Dictator, mainly cuz I'm kinda over SBC's schtick … but how about you? Did this week-long elaborate stunt manage to get YOU interested in watching the film?

So instead of reaping fields, the Stannard clan reaped tares from the living, of course, for a steep price and a fee of 50 gold per head.

An itchy inner ear can be a frustrating and uncomfortable experience. As well as making the sufferer desperate to scratch it to get some relief, an itchy inner ear can be indicative of an underlying problem which can cause irritation and pain if left untreated. There are many causes of itching in the inner ear, certainly not all related to hygiene.
What Causes An Itchy Inner Ear?
One of the most common causes of inner ear itching is the build up of tiny particles of dust inside the ear. Some other likely causes include:
Skin problems – a skin problem can cause the inner ear to itch. These include conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, allergic dermatitis and eczema, all of which can cause itching.
Dryness – while it's perfectly normal to clear earwax, which can cause plenty of hearing problems in itself, the process of cleaning it out can cause the ears to become dry. This then leads to itching inside the ear. Dry skin flakes can build up inside the ear and cause a great deal of itching.
Allergies – an allergy to something in or around the ear can cause itching. For example, pollution and dust can both lead to inner ear itching. People who wear hearing aid may find themselves suffering from itchy inner ear, either because of the material the hearing aid is made of, or the polish that the material has.
Other causes – while the above causes are quite common causes of an itchy inner ear, there are several other possible causes. These include infections, water that contains chlorine, or the use of ear drops. An itchy inner ear can also be caused by a psychological problem, exacerbated by someone drifting into their own thoughts or getting nervous and starting to poke or scratch inside their ear without thinking.
How Is An Itchy Inner Ear Treated?
The best treatment for an itching inner ear will be dependent on what is causing it. For example, if dryness from cleaning out earwax is the cause, a few drops of vegetable oil dropped in the ear will help. The buildup of earwax serves a protective function for the ear, but of course it's normal if you want to clear it out! The best recommendation in this case is to have a doctor recommend a good schedule for cleaning the ears, allowing some buildup of earwax, but not letting it form to excess. If the cause of an itch is a skin problem, the best treatment is usually the administration of a steroid cream which can reduce the allergic reaction and help stop the itching. In cases where a trauma or infection is present, a doctor's intervention is necessary. Therefore, anyone who has a repeated problem with an itchy inner ear, or who is in a lot of pain, shouldn't hesitate in seeing an ear specialist.
In most cases, an itch in the inner ear is not a serious condition. All the same, it should be treated as soon as possible, to prevent damage to the muscles of the ear and the delicate tissues inside it. It's important not to neglect delicate parts of the anatomy such as the eyes and the ears, as any damage to such delicate areas can lead to long-term permanent damage.

Breaking down barriers with music
Wild Blue Country, music on a mission
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo - A United States Air Force Academy musical group is making smiles and understanding happen all over the world. Wild Blue Country is a band that does 400 performances every year. Master Sergeant Stephen Brannen has been with this group for six years, "It's great, a lot of fun."
As Stephen explained to me, that fun is also tempered with hard work in the band and the ability to bridge barriers with the music. Brannen told me about one event in Kryzghstan that really put the band's mission in perspective. Wild Blue Country played for American and Russian troops during a performance that had a bit of an icy start. As Stephen told me, the Russians were not as quick to have conversations with their American counterparts. Both groups were sitting in the audience with the people of the village listening to Wild Blue. Stephen tells me the next thing you know, "By the end of the show they were all shaking hands and we were having a good time." The Russian and American military groups went on to have a good talks with one another. Music brought them together.
Lieutenant Colonel Don Schofield is the Commander and Conductor of the United States Air Force Academy Band. He sees first hand how music breaks down barriers and bridges a path to understanding, "When we go into communities that don't have an Air Force or military presence, it's important to bridge that trust and we do that in the universal language of music. I believe when we go out, we represent something greater than we are, individually."
That's why Wild Blue Country band members are our Wear Red Friday Heroes. I've put a link to their webpage on KRDO.com, links we mentioned. You can also nominate your own Wear Red Friday Hero. Go back to KRDO.com and our Wear Red Friday section on our home page.


text: Yeah, I do remember. And he can deny it all he wants, he has to regret retiring so young & seeing the Giants win it all the yr after he retired. I really wished he was a part of that championship team & to a certain extent, I wish Shockey had not broken his leg & played in the playoffs & SB as well

Gadget Geek's guide to August Gaming Apps
To waste time until we're able to line up and shell out another $1,000 for the newest phone, here are our four favorite gaming apps that came out this month that are iPhone/iPad friendly.
While we all wait with bated breath for the release and unveiling of the iPhone 5, we'll have to make do with the totally inferior iPhone 4S we have until then. At this point it's just a glorified app/photo uploader, is it not? We wonder how the new iPhone is going to revolutionize our lives and the way we utilize our smartphones. To waste time until we're able to line up and shell out another $1,000 for the newest phone, here are our four favorite gaming apps that came out this month that are iPhone/iPad friendly.
Trigger Fist
It seems that Trigger Fist has quickly become everyone's favorite third-person shooter game for iOS within the past few weeks. This sleek and addictive game was developed by indie game developers at Lake Effect, who attempted to make their app play more like a console game as opposed to other third-person shooter apps on the market. Sure, a touchscreen shooter game doesn't seem like the greatest idea, but with its innovative qualities and online or solo gameplay, you can sure get your money's worth out of Trigger Fist. Oh yeah, and it seems like you can pick up the goats that roam around and throw them over your shoulder. We're not sure if that's cool or not.
Organ Trail
As mentioned before in past app roundups, we love eight-bit throwbacks. If your childhood included many hours of Oregon Trail or you still think the quote "You have died of dysentery" is funny despite being one of the most quoted game quips in history, you will love the new zombie-themed parody Organ Trail. You and four of your friends travel westward while you battle swarms of zombies and pick up supplies and weapons along the way. Developed by another small indie team, The Men Who Wear Many Hats, the project was funded by fans on Kickstarter.
If you're looking for a new action-adventure game, get Horn. Like Trigger Fist, this third-person game is similar to a console game in the way that you're able to engage and explore the world of the game. It's pretty incredible how comprehensive apps are getting in regards to gameplay, and this one is only the beginning. We suggest getting the iPad version, as the puzzles are easier to play, the graphics are wicked and the monsters you battle are pretty awesome looking too.
Gears & Guts
Not sick of car or zombie games? Good, because this one has mashed the two together for some of the most ridiculous gameplay we've ever experienced. Basically, you pimp your ride with as many weapons you can attach to your vehicle to destroy the hordes of walkers attempting to get into your car. It's really simple but incredibly addictive. Just be sure you're not playing around young kids because there is a generous amount of blood in the gameplay.

Reviews of this property
Wonderful days spent at this place, and I feel strange, not be disappointed if they choose to stay in istanbul.
Estupendos días pasamos en este lugar, ya siento que lo extraño, no se decepcionaran si eligen para su estadía en estambul.
Actually the apartment is as described in the pictures very clean and tidy, a few minutes walk from Istanbul's liveliest street, around is not a luxury, but you get to feel that this place is your home worth stay there, Ms Erdal and daughter are very friendly and collaborating with everything you need, I would stay there again and recommend it 100%
Realmente el apartamento esta tal como se describe en las fotos muy limpio y ordenado, a pocos minutos caminando de la calle mas animada de estambul, alrededor no es que es un lujo, pero llegas a sentir que este lugar es tu casa, vale la pena quedarse allí, la Sra Erdal y su hija son muy amables y colaboradoras con todo lo que necesites, me quedaría otra vez allí y lo recomiendo 100%
Our stay in Istanbul was a wonderful.The location of the apartment was centrally located and quiet.However we felt it wasoverpriced. Travelling throughout Europe most facilities advertise in euros so it was misleading when quoting in pounds.
Great apartment. I would highly recommend staying here. Dealing with Erdel and her team was a real pleasure. They went far beyond what I expected. They even e-mailed me in advance of my stay, to let me know about the snow in Istanbul, so I would be prepared. The apartment was spotlessly clean and just as shown in the pictures. Everything worked perfectly and the kitchen was fully equipped. There was even food and bottles of water for when we arrived. Despite major flight delays and problems at my end. They stayed really late to give me the keys and make sure I got into the apartment safely. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks for a wonderful service. And hope to see you soon.
The apartment is really clean, cozy and you will find everything you need. Also the host was very friendly and obliging.
Everytime again!
Everything was within walking distance. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The hotel met our expectations. Everything you could need was available. Thank you. K.Juntke
Alles war zu Fuss zu erreichen.
Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Unterkunft entsprach unseren Vorstellungen. Alles, was man braucht, war vorhanden.
Danke. K.Juntke
Overnight accommodations in the Wimdu allows for better integration with the resident population compared to a hotel stay, and also cheaper. The hosts are very hard to please guests. The downside is the high commission of 15%!
Die Übernachtung in WIMDU-Unterkünfte ermöglicht eine bessere Einbindung in die Wohnbevölkerung gegenüber einem Hotelaufenthalt und zudem preiswerter. Die Gastgeber sind sehr bemüht Gäste zufriedenzustellen. Der Nachteil ist die hohe Vermittlungsprovision von 15 %!
pleasant apartment, very well located (10 minutes from İstiklal Street). Very clean and with all amenities (kitchen very complete, baby equipment) we had a very good stay, although the noise from the street was fairly certain this night. Istanbul is a vibrant city, and I think it's the same everywhere ...
appartement agreable, tres bien placé (à 10min de la rue İstiklal).
Tres propre et avec toutes les commodités (cuisine tres complete, equipement bébé); nous y avons passé un tres bon sejour, meme si le bruit dans la rue etait assez present certains soirs. Istanbul est une ville vivante, et je pense que c'est partout pareil...
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

I am arranging 16 beehives permanently on a truck flatbed (8'X12'). Two rows of eight hives face each other towards the center, seperated by a 45" wide walkway down the middle. Hives are on two hive pallets, all spaced seperated by 5/8", with a seperator board between each hives. Hives are painted one of four different colors, yellow, brown, grey or green. The hives will have a number (1 - 16)on their front, so that is another way the bees can find their own hives.
As I am not sure that bees can read address numbers, and easily differentiate colors, I am seeking ideas on what to mark on the walkway to furthur help the bees find their own hive and minimize drifting. The walkway is coverd with three pieces of plywood. Some ideas that I have had are:
each piece of plywood a different color,
different color gyometric shapes on the walkway,
some kind of runway lines like as on the Nazca Plain.
Any other suggestions ?

Reviews for this host's other properties
It has everything uncomplicated and very well.
Es hat alles unkompliziert und sehr gut geklappt.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
The house is really nice and we can only recommend this. It is even more beautiful than in the photos. We stayed 2 weeks in the autumn of 2014 in the Villa Silvina and we did not miss anything. Only disappointment was that we had to clean the apartment on its own after a week and the replacement sheets were put down only at the entrance and we had to do this myself. We're not used to us by Mallorce FINCAS, especially not in this price range.
Das Haus ist wirklich sehr schön und wir können dies nur weiter empfehlen. Es ist noch schöner als auf den Fotos. Wir waren 2 Wochen im Herbst 2014 in der Villa Silvina und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Schade war nur, dass wir nach einer Woche die Wohnung eigenständig putzen mussten und die Ersatz Bettwäsche wurde nur beim Eingang hingestellt und wir mussten dies selber tun. Das sind wir uns doch von Mallorce FINCAS nicht gewohnt, vorallem nicht in dieser Preisklasse.
We were completely satisfied and had a good time.
Wir waren rundum zufrieden und hatten eine gute Zeit.
Stay with 4 persons. The house was very nice and everything you need for a great holiday was present.

good location and good apartment

Dear Anna,
we loved our stay in your beautiful villa! We felt immediately at home. You were so kind to show us the entire house when we arrived to early. We will definately return some time when we have the opportunity. The ambiance was so cosy and the facilities where fantastic as well as the view.......stunning! Thank you so much for everything. Goodluck in the future. With kind regards family Bemelmans, family Esseling and family Willems from the Netherlands.
A very nice, big house in the old town. With arches from 1771! We enjoyed it very much.
We enjoyed our holiday in the accommodation very, The house was clean and well furnished. The beds were a bit hard and uncomfortable, but we recovered good anyway (;-)).
The distance to the beach is about 1 km, we had a car, so it was no problem.
The area is very quiet, sleeping in was not an issue.
We would love to go back. Is recommended.
Wimdu can I recommend, we had small problems with the house at the beginning, my colleagues have sought exemplary to the solution only, thank you for that!
Wir haben unseren Urlaub in der Unterkunft sehr genossen, Das Haus war sauber und gut eingerichtet. Die Betten waren leider etwas hart und unbequem, aber wir haben uns trotzdem (;-) ) gut erholt.
Der Abstand zum Strand ist ca 1 Km, wir hatten ein Auto, daher war es kein Problem.
Die Gegend ist sehr ruhig, Ausschlafen war kein Problem.
Wir würden gerne wieder hinfahren. Ist empfehlenswert.
Wimdu kann ich nur empfehlen, wir hatten kleine Probleme mit dem Haus am Anfang, die Kollegen haben sich vorbildlich um die Lösung bemüht, danke dafür!
The house is great. You have enough room, beautiful pool and everything is clean. Two minor issues: 1. The owner can only speak Spanish, so that can be difficult. 2. The bed in one of the rooms was clearly at the end of his life.
The service from 'Charming Islands' was perfect. They are 24hours available and the service is good and swift.
We had a great vacation.

Question: How can I get the government grants to start my business?
Although many advertisers would like you to believe otherwise, the government does not award grants to start businesses. Most grants are awarded to non-profit agencies. Very seldom are they awarded to fund for-profit enterprises like a small business.
The grants that are available for small companies tend to be very specifically focused on very unique purposes, such as providing childcare or working with disadvantaged children. Grants of that type may not be used for general business operating purposes or to cover start-up costs.
Who gets the grants?
If you want to apply for one of those grants, you must realize that the application has to be specifically responsive to the needs of the granting agency. No one cares that you need money to start a restaurant or photo studio. These are businesses that are started every day without the assistance of grants. You can't just do what you think is a good idea; you must do what the granting agency thinks is a good idea. This requires research into the granting agency to understand its needs and requirements.
Even then, grants are highly competitive. It is not unusual for granting agencies to receive 10 to 100 or more applications for every grant available. The successful applicant is likely to be networked with the right people including political entities, non-profit organizations and agency professionals.
Programs that can help
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program does make grants to high-technology companies to conduct individualized research that will benefit the agency. A grant proposal is necessary, and the program is highly competitive. Only a few companies may actually qualify for this type of assistance.Go to http://www.sbir.gov for information on SBIR and STTR grants. This site gives information about how to begin the application and proposal process.
One other option is to check your state, regional and local governmental agencies to see if there are any grants available for your specific location and purpose.
Prospective or existing business owners sometimes purchase books and directories supposedly listing grant programs for entrepreneurs. For $50 or $75, business owners are promised a comprehensive list of sources for 'free money.' Business development counselors often have to spend a great deal of time convincing folks that the claims are untrue.
Business Loans
The reality is that the majority of capital available to the small business sector comes through loans. Some of those can be negotiated at a reasonable rate, and some require a guarantee. But 'free money' for small businesses is virtually non-existent.
A Small Business Development Center (SBDC) can offer you technical assistance, counseling and other educational resources. They can help you prepare to access capital through other avenues. You will need to prepare a business plan and demonstrate that you have a good understanding of finances and the other factors affecting your company.
There are many conventional business loans available as well as special loan programs through the U. S. Small Business Administration. The business development counselors available through Small Business Development Centers can assist in preparing applications and other documentation to apply for those loans.
For more information on legitimate financial assistance for small business, you can find the SBDC nearest you by entering your zipcode on the Business.USA.gov home page to "locate closest resources" or by visiting http://www.asbdc-us.org/index.html.

Hi - what could I use instead of dates?
Raw chocolate truffles recipe
Prep Time
Total Time
Shelf Life5 days in fridge
Yield8 truffles
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds (or any other seeds you have on hand)
- 1/2 cup walnuts (or any other nuts you have on hand)
- 1/2 cup dates
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
- 4 tablespoons raw cocoa powder
Recipe Directions
- 1. Process the nuts/seeds in the food processor. Keep processing them until you can't see the nuts anymore, but stop processing before they get too soft looking.
- 2. Add the dates, seasalt and cocoa powder. Process again until everything is well mixed and clumped together.
- 3. Roll the balls in your hand and form balls. Some people like to roll completed truffles in goji berries, cocunut, cocoa powder, etc., but I prefer mine simple.
The Rawtarian's ThoughtsBy The Rawtarian
Raw chocolate truffles were the very first raw food that made me certain that I could become a raw vegan for an extended period of time.
This recipe just requires a food processor and a few ingredients.
These are also delicious if you crumble a truffle or two on top of sliced bananas or other chopped fresh fruit.
Good luck and enjoy these simple, sweet raw treats.

Really yummy. I substituted dried prunes and Raisns for the dates. Thanks for the recipe.
Hi Rachael, you can use raisins instead of dates in this recipe.
Jan 15, 2017
Would it alter the end result if I soaked the nuts and seeds overnight? My mom always soaks her for added nutrition.
In some recipes, using wet nuts is not recommended because it alters the way the ingredients behave.
But in this recipe, using moist nuts is fine. Just be sure to briefly pat them dry with a clean tea towel to remove most of the excess water.

ShawFam's Review
Raw chocolate truffles recipe
These were so easy and SO yummy. My girls and I made them and ate half already. Couldn't get medjool dates so used ordinary ones and soaked them for 10 mins in hot water first. I know its not strictly raw but worked a treat. Thanks
Hey Shaw's!
Glad you liked them. They're really good frozen too - the texture changes and is chewier. If there are any left, try freezing a couple.
I often use ordinary dates too - keeps the costs down.
Shaws, what will you make next I wonder?

Raw chocolate truffles recipe
Incredibly easy and delicious!
Glad you like, Leo! :)
RebeccaT's Review
Raw chocolate truffles recipe
Really tasty! We all need a little indulgence. I did have a little trouble getting it to form balls. I think my dates were too dry. I'm used to Medjool dates, but I bought a package of Mariani pitted dates to try. I didn't think to add honey or agave nectar until I read this thread. I improvised by packing the mix into a 1/8 cup measuring cup and made some neat little truffles. :)
Glad it hit the spot, Rebecca :)
Re: not forming into balls, next time process a little longer.... That way more of the oils will release from the nuts, and the batter should be more moldable.

Hey, what can I use instead of dates and any other dried fruit?
Hi Laragh,
Dates are usually used for STICKINESS (to get the recipe to stick together) AND sweetness AND as SUBSTANCE/BULK.
So... when substituting something other than dates, you need to consider all of those elements.
In this recipe, you can use raisins instead, but raisins are not quite as sweet so you may need to add a bit of honey
Jul 15, 2016
Hi. Maybe dried figs or dried apples? Humm
I think dried figs would be good too! (Dried apples won't be sticky enough IMO.)
Apr 29, 2014
I think this will be my first recipe I try from you :D so perfect for the opening of a Lush store :) Thank you so much :)
Oooh, sounds like fun. The truffles would definitely suit! :)

Raw chocolate truffles recipe
I would love to make this. This looks yummy and the recipe is so simple for me being a starter in cooking so I can easily make it. Thanks for the recipe Rawtarian :)
Hope you've tried and liked! :)
Apr 22, 2014
Not yet, but I am going to try this weekend for sure :)
I made these in my mini processor- the Cuisinart wand one because I use it to shred my apples for the breakfast cereal (which by the way, I am addicted to). I did it that way because it was late at night when I got a craving for something snacky. The seeds must not have blended fine enough and I couldn't form a truffle ball, so I stirred in some coconut butter and put the lot in the fridge. The next morning, I used a small melon scoop to form the truffles and my goodness, they are perfect. I will make this again, and again and again! Thank-you for all of your raw food support!
Good thinking! I'm glad you liked these!

CindyJ's Review
Raw chocolate truffles recipe
Oh these were really, really good. Your recipe directions didn't say when to throw in the sunflower seeds but after making your raw carrot cake recipe, I knew they needed extra chopping time in the food processor so I took all the ingredients out of the mixing bowl, chopped up the sunflower seeds then combined everything again. Anyway, they are mighty good! Thank you!

text: When you look at Takahashi, his body movement is incredibly detailed, he has lot of little choreographic touches and he is utilising his whole body throughout his programs, moving it very fluidly, and just he oozes expression. His movement is very soft and cat-like. Chan does technically skate to the music but I find him missing the above qualities. Well maybe not missing but he's not on Dai's level. Also, there are some skaters who have very distinct styles or who always show something strong conceptually, that stands out. Chan "just" shows very good craftsmanship. He is probably the most skilled male skater to have ever competed, I just wish his programs were more daring and original. I largely blame Lori Nichol - the worst peddler of toilet break "choreography" - for this state of affairs and I have hopes of his programs being much more interesting this season since he finally decided to work with somebody else. Shame it's Wilson and Buttle though and not somebody like Miyamoto or Dickson or Camerlengo. :/ As I've written above, Chan's style just isn't as flashy as Takahashi's or Abbott's - to give two examples - but he does tick most of the PCS boxes. Those are two very brief moments. They don't cancel out everything that he showed for the vast majority of his performance.

Digging Deeper: The role of property tax in urban redevelopmentSubmitted by jennifer on Mon, 08/15/2011 - 12:53pm.
Today's installment in Patrick Kerkstra's Plan Philly/Inquirer series on property tax delinquency digs deeper into the relationship between property tax delinquency and blight, and how a strategically-designed collection system could support redevelopment.
It's well worth reading and discussing, as it encapsulates the hard policy decisions that need to be considered in order to even begin changing the status quo. These should be central as the Ross and Taylor bills are amended and improved in Harrisburg, and our city government considers how to weigh in to that process as well as act locally on near-term legislative and administrative reforms.
* What pace of tax or lien foreclosures can the market absorb before property values become depressed and supply outpaces demand?
* How can we make sure the new owners are more responsible than the old ones?
* Does the City want to own all this land in advance of development interest, and take on responsibility for maintenance and liability?
* What will it take politically to move from five entrenched public or quasi-public agencies which own land, to a new system with centralized inventory and processes?
* How can we improve protections for low-income occupants, so we can keep people in their homes and avoid new costs from increased displacement and homelessness?
All that uncollected property tax: Looking for a vision of reform behind the dollar signsSubmitted by jennifer on Sun, 08/14/2011 - 1:12pm.
$472 million in uncollected property tax looks to be this year's $1.5 billion - the estimated unpaid court fees and forfeited bail that is now being collected by aggressive private firms following the newspapers' revelations of long mismanagement at the disbanded Clerk of Quarter Sessions. Time will tell if the property tax numbers in a report by PlanPhilly.com (in partnership with the Inquirer) draw the same sustained public attention, and spur creaky systems to change.
But a similar, fundamental, error already looms. In a city with a persistent 25% poverty rate, and glaring hunger numbers (1 in 2 people in Philadelphia's First Congressional District, as reported last week), much of that debt is simply uncollectible. It's not hiding under beds and in nightstands. A significant amount of tax and water debt can and will never be collected. We are stuck, rock and hard place, Scylla and Charybdis: leaving all that debt in place burdens title, increasing abandonment and blight, and complicates efforts to get people to pay their current and future tax debt.
It's easy to sell papers and get column inches with the accusation that government inaction and unfairness is costing those of us who followed the rules and paid taxes and bills on time, particularly against the backdrop of budget crises that are starting to look apocalyptic for states and cities. And it's not untrue. But it's mostly beside the point.
Look at the options presented, essentially two. One: quick and mass foreclosure. Two: unload the problem by selling off the debt itself to private third parties, who should have market incentives to foreclose and no meddling City Council members to interfere. Both are misguided for reasons amply suggested by the study's own data.

When considering Aaliyah's track record, it's befitting that her name means "The highest, most exalted one, the best." Her parents, Diane and Michael, decided on the name based on the high hopes and expectations they would have if they had a daughter. Her success as both a recording artist and actress actually makes the name of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Aaliyah made her dreams come true. At 22, she not only had a very successful recording career but also established herself as a motion picture actress and an accomplished business woman.
Aaliyah Memorial Fund
In her precious 22 years, Aaliyah achieved more than many do in several lifetimes...
An illuminating factor was her conviction to touch and help others. The Aaliyah Memorial Fund was created as a vehicle whereby her fans, friends, and family can contribute to and support causes that Aaliyah found important. The Aaliyah Memorial Fund was started in 2001. For Aaliyah and her comrades that left us August 25th, 2001, there is much we can do as a benevolent community to keep Aaliyah's dream & legacy alive.

Voluntary 'execution' by the state...a thought exercise
Original post made by John, Midtown, on Nov 14, 2012
I would like to move the issue to voluntary execution by the state, independent of prisoners. I support doctor assisted suicide. I simply cannot understand what the objection is, other than that some doctors refuse to do it.
OK, so my thought exercise is this:
The State of California rents out its death chamber at San Quentin to civilians who want to die. It would be a very strightforward deal, I pay for my own death, because I want to die, and no longer face my own pain. San Quentin can franchise it, if they want.
Oregon already has doctor-assisted suicide, and it is time for California to follow. However, until we do, we could at least make some money off of it.
Once a few thousand civilians take advantage of the service, there might be judges who understand that being put to sleep is not cruel and unusual punishment, and the murderers can alco be put out of existence.

isn't satire supposed to have some humor or wit?
or is this just an entry for The Theater of the Absurd?
a resident of Midtown
on Nov 14, 2012 at 4:22 pm
I did not mean it as satire. I want people to start thinking about voluntary assisted suicide. Clearly, if thousands of people bought the service of 'execution', it would serve two purposes:
1. Suffereing people could relieve their pain, painlessly, perhaps with their family surrounding them (like Jackie Onassis). There are many bigots who oppose personal choice in such matters. It is time that we just get over it.
2. Murderers could be eliminated from death row.

What did trolls do before the internet?
Please do not feed.
a resident of Midtown
on Nov 14, 2012 at 4:59 pm
> trolls
That is the standard Internet put down by those who refuse to discuss serious issues, or who do not want to support fresh ideas.
Therefore, let me deconstruct my concept for you:
Do you support doctor-assisted suicide? If not, why not? Once that quesiton is answered, we can take it to the next step....
a resident of Adobe-Meadow
on Nov 14, 2012 at 6:47 pm
The transparency of the troll, attempting to back into an argument on state sanctioned murder, through a framing of his own choosing, is quaint.
Judges give John Sean Jerry Gary etc, one star out of a possible five.

John: I totally understand what you mean, as the victim of a progressive and debilitating disease. There is a Frontline episode called "Suicide Tourism" available on Roku that is worth watching. It is about suicide in Switzerland, and I wholeheartedly agree with it. I would like to go in the manner of the man in the episode, before I become too much of a burden to others and humiliation to myself.
In Oregon, you must become a resident and prove that you have six months or less to live. If San Quentin were to rent out its death chamber, we could have a peaceful passing as in the Swiss manner shown in "Suicide Tourism".
We do this for the pets we love; why can we not do this for ourselves?

In one thread a person talks about hiking, biking, walking, going to the gym, playing with grandchildren on a daily basis on another thread a person claims to be a victim of a debilitating disease. Sounds like someone is crying out for attention.

on Nov 14, 2012 at 9:18 pm
Just the idea of this is so ridiculous in so many ways, legally, socially, morally, politically, etc .... I really have to wonder if you are sane?
Even should they allow physician assisted end of life ... doing it inside a prison as a "service" is ludicrous. Who would want to spend their last hours in a prison, making your relatives go there, or being surrounding by prisoners and guards, it's almost like one of those Japanese ideas that is supposed to be kind of fuctional but more of a joke. Silly, but not funny enough to create a laugh ... just kind of sad.

DxOMark review for the Nikon 24-120, the new constant f/4 aperture on DxOMark.Tuesday November 23 2010 Lens Review
Much more light
As expected, all these improvements help the lens collect much more light. The T-stop results are far better for this new version. From 24 to 85mm, the results are good (f/4.3); from 85 to 120mm, the T-stop climbs to f/4.3 to f/4.6 on a D3x. This is far better than for the old zoom on the same camera, which was in any event limited by its smaller aperture at longer focal lengths.

With their help, researchers are advancing the 70-year effort to understand—and treat—hereditary ataxia.
Nissa Mollema, Harry Orr
Ten-year-old Henry Schut noticed that his father was having increasing difficulties with his daily chores on their farm in rural Minnesota in the early 1900s. His father grew highly agitated by his display of clumsiness as he attempted to hook up the horses for plowing. Henry soon learned why his father was so distressed. People were whispering about a mysterious disorder that plagued his family: About half of the children born into it developed symptoms of the disease in adulthood. Affected individuals first experienced walking difficulties, then hand incoordination, then slurred speech, and finally, labored breathing. The disorder was lethal within around 10 years of the onset of symptoms.
True to this distressing history, Henry's father's condition quickly progressed until he was extremely debilitated. Henry, along with his three younger brothers and one sister, was running all of the farm operations before their father passed away in 1924 at the age of 46. Several of Henry's uncles also passed away within the next few years because of the disease. Henry and many of his cousins were suddenly growing up in single-parent households. As life moved on after the family tragedies, Henry could not stop thinking about his father's condition. His eight aunts and uncles had many children, and he knew his siblings and cousins could eventually become ill with the disorder. He wondered what it was and who might be affected by it. He wondered if there was a cure; he wanted to prevent such a tragedy from happening again within the family. If he married and began a family of his own, he was concerned that he could pass the illness to his children, but there was no way for him to know.
Years after Henry's father and uncles had passed away, Henry's fears began to be realized: One of his close cousins, Bert, was showing early signs of the disease at age 20. Consultations with their local medical doctors proved extremely unhelpful in deciphering the disorder. In Henry's small town, rumors were spreading about the possibility that the family illness was contagious. At Henry's encouragement, Bert made the trip from western Minnesota to the university hospital in Minneapolis. The family hoped that medical specialists could give them an accurate diagnosis and possibly provide a treatment.
During this trip in about 1930, the doctors diagnosed Bert with ataxia. This diagnosis unified under one umbrella those affected by similar symptoms, but they still did not know what caused the disease, how to identify those who would be diagnosed later in life, or how to cure it.

Diving Into Research
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio - Learning at Wittenberg often extends far beyond the classroom walls, and students in the Bahamas Field Study Program are seeing just how far dedicated faculty will go to create hands-on learning opportunities.
Offered during alternate summers, the four-week Marine Science program, Comparative Communities, allows students to work one on one with Wittenberg faculty at the Gerace Research Center in San Salvador.
Led by Jim Welch, associate professor of biology; Kathy Reinsel, associate professor of biology; and Richard Phillips, assistant professor of biology, students experience the culture of the island while exploring terrestrial and marine environments on daily trips to coral reef systems and other tropical marine communities.
Students snorkel each day and learn how to identify reef fish, invertebrates and plants, and those who are certified SCUBA divers may also choose to dive as part of the program.
The class also visits a local cave, hikes in the interior of the island, swims to nearby cays, and surveys the intertidal organisms of the rocky shore. After exploring a variety of habitats, students identify a question of interest, propose a hypothesis to answer the question, and design and conduct a field research project to test a hypothesis.
Dedicated to intellectual inquiry, many students will present their findings at scientific conferences during the upcoming academic year. Find out more about the group's experiences and follow along during the second half of the program through their field study blog.

Once Upon a School
Once Upon a School is an initiative that Dave Eggers, the TED team, and 826 National developed after Dave received the 2008 TED Prize and was given one wish to change the world. TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is known worldwide for its conferences, the exemplary TED talks it shares online at www.ted.com, and the people and causes it champions through its annual TED Prize. Dave's wish was to gather stories of private citizens engaged in their local schools so that people everywhere could share the details of their efforts in schools and be inspired by the work being done by others.
Stories have poured in from people around the world and the impact of their work, captured here thanks to TED and others, continues to be felt in communities near and far. Below are stories about how all kinds of people - from celebrities to retired journalists - are doing their part to improve their local schools. We hope they will inspire you to get involved with schools in your own communities. You can find an archive of all the stories here and you can submit your own story to the Once Upon A School wish with this easy form.

"I wish for your help to create a strong, sustainable movement to educate every child about food, inspire families to cook again and empower people everywhere to fight obesity "–Jamie Oliver As I sat in the audience listening to Jamie Oliver make his wish, I had the same reaction that I did in 2008 when I heard this one: "I wish that you — you personally and every creative individual and organization you know — will find a way to directly engage with a public school in your area, and that you'll then tell the story of how you got involved, so that within a year we have 1,000 examples of innovative public-private partnerships."-Dave Eggers On a mission to do something small that could have a big impact on kids who have a great desire to learn to write well through the exploration of something they think is cool, I decided to spend this summer doing my part to try and fulfill both wishes at the same time.

2300 to one
2300 to one. That was the student to college counselor ratio at Granada High School (CA) when we started the BetterGrads program there last fall. 2300 students, 1 college counselor (a second was on maternity leave). With last year's statewide budget cuts of 40% for college and career counselors, many public schools have had to settle with half as many counselors - or, I suppose, 0.6 of a counselor if they only had one to begin with - to serve a growing, increasingly complex student population. Education associations report that the counselor to student ratio should be 1 to 250 or lower. In 2000, the national average was 1 to 500. In the last ten years, that ratio has ballooned up to 1 to 750, and reaches as high as 1 to 5000 in some low-income school districts. Read more >>
Cougar Productions and Midian Films 2 Cannes
Midian Films is a small independent Film Company based in Round Rock, Texas. We were aware of the Video Tech class at Connally High School and thought it would be cool if we showed the advance class how to get their film to the Cannes Film Festival in France. Our company has had films shown there for the last 6 years and noticed there was a presence of young high school students showing their work. So, we posed this idea to the Video Tech teacher Humberto Perez and he liked the idea. We have been working with the students since September and they are responsible for everything from writing the script to every aspect of film production and post production. Read more >>
Colorado State University's Service Learning Course "Micro Lessons: Macro Impact"
Project Micro biology - Macro Impact began in 2000 as a simple desire to provide college students at Colorado State University with opportunities to inspire younger students about science and learning. A microbiology professor at CSU, local teachers, and staff members of the school district volunteer program collaborated to create lesson plans that could be taught by college students which addressed the needs of students in elementary, middle, and high schools. The ideas were developed into a successful and sustainable service learning project with many tiers of teaching and learning. College senior microbiology students play leadership roles within the project and finish off their college careers with the completion of unique capstone theses. Younger college honor students enrolled in general microbiology are taught introductory microbiology techniques by the senior capstone students that are necessary to teach the K-12 students.. All project members develop communication skills by working with teachers and students. Read more >>

Science of Interrogation
Interrogation is an elaborate game of cat and mouse, an intellectual duel akin to cracking a code. Science of Interrogation reveals the finely-tuned, meticulous tricks of psychology, technique and cutting edge technology in the interrogator's arsenal, all designed to extract the truth a prime suspect does not want uncovered.
We meet the experts with years of experience cracking the toughest of crimes, the human lie detectors who pinpoint the subtle 'tells' that give liars away; see footage of real criminal interrogations and meet the police officers who conducted them; and learn about the arsenal of cutting edge technology now available to the modern interrogator. Functional MRI can now look inside the brain and reveal how people use different parts of the brain when they are lying. Can thermal imaging of the face detect tell tale signs of lying?
Stan B Walters, an interrogation expert who has been teaching the artful techniques for 25 years, takes us on a journey through his extensive collection of real interrogation footage, including some of America's most high-profile cases like Coral Eugene Watts and the Green River Killer, deconstructing and analyzing for us each move and counter-move as investigators advance one step closer to the confession they're after.
