Monroe plane crash kills 4
MONROE- Four people died when a plane crash in the woods behind Ouachita Correctional Center.
The News-Star reports investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board will be on the scene Friday to begin collecting evidence and witness testimony for their initial investigation.
NTSB spokesman Terry Williams says a Beechcraft Bonanza crashed Thursday afternoon about four miles south of the Monroe Regional Airport.
Officials have not released the names of the victims.
The airplane was owned by Central Flying Service, Inc. of Little Rock, Ark. It was arriving at Monroe from Beaumont, Texas.
William said the investigation could take nine months to one year to complete.

Q: I am currently seeing a counselor with my co-parent. Should I use this program instead of counseling?
A: This program is not designed to be a replacement for therapy or counseling. Many parents find that it is a helpful addition to local, in-person support they are currently receiving to address parenting differences they may be experiencing.
Q: What if my spouse/co-parent refuses to listen? Can the program still work?
A: It can be frustrating when your co-parent refuses to work together to address parenting differences you may be experiencing. However, it is not a requirement that the co-parent go through the program with you. James Lehman explains how to develop an individual "culture of accountability," which exists between you and your child. He also explains how you can own your role in the interactions with your child, and how you can respond most effectively.

- 640 CUDA Cores
- 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5
- PCI Express 3.0
Some manufacturers place restrictions on how details of their products may be communicated.
Works well but nothing impressive. 06/05/2014
This review is from: EVGA 02G-P4-3753-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 750 Ti Superclocked 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Video Card
Short height and width and no pcie power cable required. It is a fatty though. Power consumption is low also.
A little loud. Runs a bit on the warm side, but nothing scary.
Other Thoughts:
Used this in an aging system. Q6600 quad core, 4 gb ram, 2x slied gt9600( Replaced one and made other dedicated physx). This wasn't as drastic an improvement as I was hoping for. ESO is still under 30fps on medium, Fallout:NV runs only at med graphics with a respectable frame rate. Hawken runs around 20 on low with physx off, even. LoL runs at under 30 fps maxed out. Might be my system, but honestly expected better from this card.

(CBS) — The Chicago Bears have signed quarterback Jimmy Clausen to a one-year contract while waiving line backer Lawrence Wilson.
Clausen started 10-of-13 games during his four-year NFL career with the Panthers (2010-13) after being selected by Carolina in the second round (48th overall) of the 2010 NFL Draft out of Notre Dame, the Bears said in announcing the deal Thursday.
Wilson spent the 2013 preseason with the Bears and the last seven weeks of the regular season on Chicago's practice squad but did not appear in a regular season game. He has also spent time with Carolina (2011), Tennessee (2012) and New Orleans (2012) but has not appeared in a regular season contest, the Bears said.

Date of Stay: August, 2013
Sadly, we only had one night here, but we'll be back again! Great rustic sites with full hooks up available. Lots of families, a mini golf type course and a pool. We didn't get to use all of the amenities in our overnight, but it was a great bang for your buck! Sites were easy to get into, lots of options to choose from and peace and quiet at night. Staff in the office were quick with check ins and helpful with local info. We're already planning our return trip for next year! This was a great stop for us and we can't wait to come back for a much longer stay.
Date of Stay: August, 2013
A concrete jungle more than a campground. Lots of permanent residents with decks, etc, built onto their trailers. A ton of dogs (at almost every site!) which were kind enough to wake us up most mornings, that is if we slept through the noise from the Interstate. Pool facilities were clean and the kids enjoyed them. There weren't a lot of kids, mostly retired folks. The Wi-Fi only works in the office, even though we were two sites away, there was no signal. I wouldn't recommend this campground if you want a "camping" experience. The sites are graveled and pads cemented next to them, so set up is easy, but we never even got out the lawn chairs, since the sites had very little privacy and we felt like we were living in the neighboring site! Water, power and septic hook ups were all good though and the staff was awesome, which is why we've chosen to rate this a 5, and not lower.
Date of Stay: July, 2010
Can't say enough good about this site or the hosts! Located 0.2 miles off the highway, but still was very quiet. They were accommodating in bringing us a fire pit so we could have a campfire. They offer a Good Sam discount too, but we aren't members. Easy to set up at our site, fairly level sites with full power, water and sewer hook up. Wi-Fi was perfect, no problems. Playground needs updating, but at least there was one. Great bang for your buck!
Date of Stay: July, 2010
Beautiful sites, lush grass and enough space for a much bigger rig than ours! It is a huge campground with 150 sites, unfortunately no playground, but otherwise wonderful. WiFi is perfect (I am using it as I write this) and I'm told there is cable TV too. Very cheerful hosts made check in a breeze. Offer AAA/CAA discount too. Awesome deal for the cost of the site.
Date of Stay: July, 2010
Campground is small, definitely built before the bigger trailers. Our first night, we had to set our lawn chairs under the neighbor's slide. We couldn't open our awning as the next unit was too close! Wifi doesn't belong to the campsite, but is unsecured from the neighborhood. But with power and water hook up for $15 you can't go wrong! Nice playground for the kids and shaded sites. Don't come with a big rig though, you'll never get in! Corner of Lake Ave. & 6th St.

I am a pacifist.What I mean by that is in every conflict I have I make a concerted effort to not respond with violence. What I mean by that is I try to uphold the dignity of the other especially when we are at odds. I understand violence as the most primitive form of dehumanization. When I act violently toward another I not only dehumanize my sense of self (or character) but I also dehumanize the other. This makes it possible to be violent toward the rest of creation as well. If I were to … [Read more...]

Our Adoptable Pet List
About Us:
Eleven Eleven Animal Rescue is a Montreal, no-kill, foster-home based rescue and registered non-profit organization. We rescue, provide needed medical care, rehabilitate, and re-home a wide variety of animals including exotics but predominately dogs and cats. Eleven Eleven is based on a strong team of devoted animals lovers and experienced medical professionals. We aim to rescue as many animals in need as we can, while still providing an exceptionally high quality of care per animal. With each rescue our goal is to find the animal its forever and final home, where it can live without fear of cruelty or abandonment.br> Our mission is to reduce the number of homeless animals in our community's shelters by only adopting out animals that are spayed/neutered, adopting out animals with permanent forms of identification (microchipped), and through education of the public about responsible pet ownership. We advocate: choosing to adopt instead of buying, the sterilization of animals to reduce pet overpopulation, micro-chipping to reunite animals with owners in the event they are lost, and promoting responsible pet ownership.br> Through adoption, sterilization, identification, and education, we hope to one day live in a community where homeless animals do not exist.br> Adopt a pet, save a life.
Sponsor an Animal
A great way to contribute to the rescue is through donations. We are a non-profit volunteer run rescue and entirely rely on donations. Without donations we are unable to save these animals. Visit our Sponsor and Animal Page and choose which animal your would like to help sponsor. We also post continuous updates of these animals so you can follow their progress.
See page here:
Behind the Scenes
Eleven Eleven Animal Rescue offers a special feature to our rescue and allows people to get behind the scenes in many differnt ways. We post ongoing updates of animals in the rescue, animals that need help, projects we are working on, fundraisers, events. We like to keep veiwers involved in everything we are doing.

Why Rob Ford Won the First Mayoral Debate and Toronto Lost
Last night was the first Mayoral Debate for the 2014 City of Toronto election and it was a hot mess. The whole thing came across as a yelling match between the candidates and an embarrassment to the city. It was hard to understand their platforms (if any) and easy to see that all 5 of these potential Mayors are frustrated. I blame the format of the debate above all else.
City TV, hosts of the televised and live-streamed debate, conducted the whole thing in the following format: one minute for each candidate to answer a question, followed by three minutes of open-floor where everyone could talk at once, followed by a one-on-one question between two candidates. Each candidate got to ask a total of one question to another candidate -- leaving most candidates ignored. The candidates had to speak on Transit, Finances and Leadership before giving their closing remarks. With a format like this, candidates faced little fear of follow-up questions. Three minutes of open-floor also means we, the audience, will hear little in actual statements and lots in pure noise in chaos. Candidates were essentially able to say whatever they wanted, on one of the three topics, in their initial one-minute of speaking time, without a lot of direct dialogue or accountability.
So, how do you tell a winner? It's hard to say, as I'm not sure what constitutes a "winner" in the case of this debate. Usually a demonstration of:
- cost-effective plans with foresight,
- a clear platform,
- concern for the citizens and their living conditions,
- and generally trustworthiness and truth
All are great criteria for determining a winner. But not so in last night's debate. Last night I watched as some candidates tried to use reason and logic to explain their proposals, but they ran out of time before getting to their message. I watched some candidates stretch the truth to attack each other, but that turned in to yelling. I watched people dodge many questions from other candidates, speaking on their terms rather than answering. And I watched Rob Ford say the same three things over-and-over (and quite loudly). With a debate set up like a school-yard sandbox, the loudest most repetitive voice gets heard.
Unfortunately, we heard three things from Rob Ford and not a whole lot else. When there's a democratic conversation and only one voice gets represented, everyone looses. In this case, Toronto lost.
In the future, I hope that these debates are presented in a format that has only one person speaking at a time, demands accountability, and still uses viewer polling (I really liked being able to vote on my smartphone). You can believe whatever you like, and I hope what you believe in is the truth. When it comes to politicking, the truth can be hard to uncover. Even worse, many voters don't often stick around for the truth or don't pay enough attention to multiple information sources to ascertain some semblance of the truth.
People hear what they want to believe and don't always question what they hear. They watch a debate on TV and they hear three things, and if those three things sound pretty awesome, they move on.
If you do want to salvage some actual truth from last night, check out the fact-check that Torontoist did on all 5 candidates' claims.

KEY WEST WEDDING IN DECEMBERDecember, 2009 in Key West
"Our wedding in Key West was spectacular; with over 40 friends and family coming from as far away as Vancouver Island, British Columbia and Wales. We rented homes and had our guests/families stay together for the week and really get to know each other. We self-catered the wedding, with lots of help from our guests for an amazing down-home feel.
As our wedding day was also my husband's 40th birthday, I surprised him the evening before with an appetizer and drinks party at Alonzo's Oyster Bar. They were amazing with the planning - and keeping it a secret.
Our officiant Aaron was amazing! We actually have some friends who are planning a Key West wedding with Aaron in the near future.
Tony Gregory, our photographer was truly an artist! Our photos, which we got the next day, were great! - He also does "trash the dress" sessions and I'm hoping for a return visit to just that with him!
Marie Pierre at Studio Marie Pierre made me gorgeous for my BIG DAY - hair, airbrush makeup, and eyelashes!!
Peter at Milan Event Floral created just what I wanted in our bouquets and bouts!
Four Star Rentals rented us the grills we needed to feed 40+ and the disco ball that we hung from the porch to create our reception 'ambiance.'
We really could not say enough about what a phenomenal experience it was to get married in Key West!"

This is a discussion on Altercation last night, almost went bad fast.

This is the armed man's dilemma. You never know how others will perceive things after the fact.
In precisely that situation the OP was in, one person might legitimately feel their life is in danger (and be able to verbalize the reason) and another person might laugh it off as a mostly harmless drunk doing stupid stuff.
Here's the intricate issue, your size pretty much takes away disparity of force issues, and as the other guy wasn't in the game against you, it wasn't two on one. Yet, you certainly were in imminent danger of serious bodily harm if the sober guy hadn't stepped in. You can almost bet that if you shot the drunk, the buddy would deny that the drunk ever put a finger on you in the first place. This scenario is perilous both physically and legally.
When I was 27 I had a huge crazy drunk rush me, grab me by my waist and press me up over his head. He was about to throw/slam me to the ground when his friend interfered. It was so unexpected and fast that I was in the air before I could react and even today don't know how I might have reacted without incurring significant major injuries just from the 8-foot drop.
I think it is HG (maybe Sixto) who once posted here that nothing good happens after midnight.
If the Union is once severed, the line of separation will grow wider and wider, and the controversies which are now debated and settled in the halls of legislation will then be tried in fields of battle and determined by the sword.
Andrew Jackson
Don"t let stupid be your skill set....
And Shepards we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee,
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, So that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command,
And we shall flow a river forth to Thee, And teeming with souls shall it ever be,
This whole scenario brings up an important question I am wondering about.
Sorry, I haven't been around drunk people before. Yes, I know, I have no life and never go to parties or any of that. Now I've read that alcohol can affect people in different ways. Some might be melancholy (perhaps like this guy) and others might become aggressive. I also have heard that with the harder drugs, the judgement is so impaired that when faced with the muzzle of a handgun pointed right at somebody, they may not be afraid at all. Would this happen with alcohol? Is there any chance that had you drawn your gun, would this big guy have even realized the danger is was in?
With any substance affecting the brain, you don't know how a particular individual will react. Some of them you don't know even without a substance.
"I do what I do." Cpl 'coach' Bowden, "Southern Comfort".
Drunks sometimes think they are invincible. So, yes the sight of a gun may just be fuel for their fire.
Trust in God and keep your powder dry
"A heavily armed citizenry is not about overthrowing the government; it is about preventing the government from overthrowing liberty. A people stripped of their right of self defense is defenseless against their own government." -source
It actually sounds like you handled it pretty well to me. Other than you should work on keeping the SA elevated a little better. Other than that, I say you did well.

Drunk people are as varied as normal people, except that there IQ level gets halved. Some people can remain semi-aware, but most are totally different than their sober selves.
The one time I got smashed (my best friends bachelor party) I didn't change much aside from not being able to talk or walk well. Apparently my Grandfather was the same way. People like me are the small minority as drunks from my experience. I was very impaired though. Even though I made the same choices I normally would, it took a long time to make the same decision.
Most people get crazy. Whether that be talking a lot, angry looking for a fight, doing crazy stunts, or wanting to have sex it all depends on how alcohol affects them. Some people still have fear, most don't have enough common sense left to be afraid though. It's often because when they started drinking, they did it in safe places which seems to set the tone of their drunkennes.
Dealing with drunks means you are dealing with no rules. Every drunk person is as unique as a snowflake, and you have to assess the situation as it happens. I think the OP just needs to keep their SA up a bit more, but did everything right.
Big drunk happy birthday boy wants to give you a hug.
You shoot him?
Good luck with that. Backing off, like you did, his friend pulling him aside, you got an excellent result here. Be glad it didn't get serious.
"It may seem difficult at first, but everything is difficult at first."
I think you did pretty good. I would've done the same, but I've started carrying a 1911 regularly, so no worries about a bigger caliber for me. I'd look into carrying something a little bigger. With the number of pocket sized 9mm's out there, I don't see any need to carry a .380 as a primary.
The guy is drunk; he's not high on PCP. I guess he could have been on some of the harder stuff, and it may be worth considering in similar situations, but for the sake of argument, let's just say he got hammered on his birthday.
Alcohol doesn't make anyone better at anything, and it doesn't mean he won't feel pain. I've been around thousands of drunk people, and it's not some big mystery. It decreases some inhibitions and sometimes people do things they wouldn't normally do. This may include talking trash and starting fights.
Many people harp on the idea that CCW's should have a non lethal form of self defense, and I believe this situation warranted a less than lethal response. Like I previously stated, I wouldn't convict you if I was sitting on a jury, but if you had to shoot that guy, it would present a long string of legal and financial problems. I often hear "better to be judged by 12 than carried by six." I honestly don't agree with that statement. Spending 25 years in some hardcore state prison is not going to be a pleasant experience, and being dead might actually be better.
Learning to box, or carrying OC or a collapsible baton would be a worthwhile investment. People do get killed in street fights, which is a good reason to avoid them, but it's rare. In borderline cases like this, I'd risk the chance of losing a fight over the chance of spending time in front of a judge and jury. But that's just me; it probably would have made my night to drop a big drunk idiot.
I think it turned out fine, but it may have just been luck. OC may not have worked. A lucky punch can kill you dead. There was a thread on this not long ago. And how would a .380 do on a man that big and feeling less pain than normal?
You were in a no-win situation. Glad it worked out.
He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose. - Jim Elliott
The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.
Albert Einstein
SFurysays it very well.Dealing with drunks means you are dealing with no rules. Every drunk person is as unique as a snowflake, and you have to assess the situation as it happens. I think the OP just needs to keep their SA up a bit more, but did everything right.
you had SA though you sloughed it off. so we suggest paying attention to yourself a bit better. but i kinda said that already. the part SFury points out that i think bears deeper thought is that dealing with no rules and that every drunk person is unique and can change 3 times in 2 seconds.
you can never dismiss them in public, or whenever in your vicinity.
as for the gun.....once it comes out , the longer it stays out the less effective it becomes to make them leave you and the harder it is to put away. the drunk knows its a gun and he ain't been shot yet so its not gonna happen. and to put it away you would have to leave--which is what you would have done in the 1st place.
not all answers come from the bbl of a gun.
deescalating, removal of self from the location. losing face----who cares, i mean truelly...it mattes so little as to not be worthy of consideration.
You plug 'em, I plant 'em
...kid can't read at 17 (Garcia/Hunter 1985)
Lack of preparation on your part does not necessarily constitute an emergency on mine
I'm just going to say it one more time - drunk people suck at fighting.
So let me get this straight, a punch can kill you, but 4 or 5 rounds of .380 wouldn't affect a man? I don't get the logic.
It's Saturday night, so I'm going to go hang out with some drunk people. I'll let you know how she was when I check back in tomorrow.
I for one wouldn't want to take on a 6'4" monster with a .380. My 1911 is a much better choice. Not to mention, I could use it as a non-lethal weapon in a pistol whipping sense.
OP, glad you are ok and things didn't go any further.
Booyah....I'm not going to question your choice of gun/caliber....but let me ask you this...
What did you think when the big guy started to advance and the thought of drawing on him....with him being 6', 300+ lbs and matched up with your Kel-Tec?

Goldfrapp have, for now, put the synth-pop of Head First behind them and returned to a stripped back, ethereal vibe on Tales of Us.
Much of the record plays out like a warm and dreamy film score, from the quiet simplicity of the opener Jo, to the lush guitar of Drew and the haunting and soaring strings of Ulla.
This is a magical album that stacks up well against the British duo's earlier, and in my opinion, best work.

The TV ratings company OzTAM late last year started including information on time-shifted viewing – that is, the watching of pre-recorded programs up to seven days after they went to air – in its daily ratings numbers.
Since January, OzTAM has released two sets of ratings data: overnight numbers and consolidated numbers, which include time-shifted viewing.
As expected, drama programs topped the list of the TV shows with the biggest time-shifted viewing numbers.
Packed To The Rafters' average overnight capital-city audience number this year was just under 1.9 million, while its consolidated audience number was 2.04 million. The gap of 145,641 gave it the number one spot on the list of programs that saw the biggest increase when time-shifted viewing was included.
The Wednesday night episodes of
Ten's House ranked third with an increase of 134,523 capital-city viewers, to an average of 1.18 million. Seven's The Amazing Race was fourth (an increase of 122,862 to 690,000) and the ABC's Midsomer Murders fifth (an increase of 122,331 to 1.5 million).
Packed To The Rafters' big overnight audience number meant its audience increase in percentage terms when time-shifted viewing was included was a relatively modest 7.7 per cent.
The biggest percentage gain on the list of 50 programs that resulted in the biggest audience increase from time-shifted viewing was the 10.30pm episode of Seven's Covert Affairs, which experienced a 26.5 per cent jump to an average of 435,054 capital-city viewers. (The 9.30pm episodes of the American drama series had a 13.2 per cent lift to an average of 793,281 viewers.)
The second weekly episode of Nine Network's Survivor: Nicaragua had the second largest percentage increase, rising 23.1 per cent to an average of 543,340 viewers when time-shifted viewing was included.
The Amazing Race ranked third with a 21.7 per cent increase, followed by the first weekly episode of Survivor: Nicaragua with an 18.3 per cent increase to an average of 629,121 capital-city viewers.

ITT: Make Player "Metal" Rating Visible
We know ND is integrating some sort of ranking system that isn't solely based on time played like the normal 1-60 or 1-80 rankings.
Now we don't know exactly how they are implementing this into the match-making, yet, and we all hope they will make it right. However, we shouldn't be here to discuss all the specifics on how they should use this rating since that is their own decision and that discussion will not be worthwhile.
Although, I DO believe we need this player rating VISIBLE to everyone, and hopefully you can see another player's rating without having to load their stats.
Couldn't agree more. Hopefully this new ranking is based...
Couldn't agree more. Hopefully this new ranking is based on skill (ala Halo 2). If this turns out to be the case then surely it should be firmly a part of every aspect of matchmaking.
Although it's possible that it's only part of new "ranked" playlists.

Walgreen (NYSE:WAG) announced its Q2 results last week. The earnings beat analyst expectations even though the number of prescriptions filled at comparable stores fell by 8-9% as a result of the drug retailer walking out of Express Scripts network this year. What is generating more curiosity is the future of Walgreen's business with Medco now that the FTC has approved the Express Scripts-Medco deal.
The company's management indicated in its latest earnings call that it hopes to maintain its relationship and contracts with Medco. Others speculate that Walgreen may hammer out a fresh deal with Express Scripts soon. This certainly bodes well for WAG stock which currently trades at $35, and has lost almost a quarter of its value since its impasse with Express Scripts in June 2011. Walgreen competes with CVS Caremark (NYSE:CVS) and Rite Aid (NYSE:RAD).

If Express-Medco Merge, Is It Time To Buy Or Sell Walgreen?
Walgreen and Express Scripts parted ways last year after failing to renew contract worth $5 billion over disagreement on reimbursement rates. With reports suggesting that the Express Scripts-Medco merger might get FTC's green flag soon, there have been concerns about the implications for Walgreen and the future of its prescription business from Medco (Walgreen filled 125 million prescriptions for Medco clients in 2011). There were also talks of Walgreen considering buying out Rite Aid.
The recent buzz is that Walgreen could try to enter a new contract with Express Scripts as the management appeared positive about doing business with Medco. [1] In fact, UBS expects the deal as soon as April or May and has even raised its price target for Walgreen to $39. [2] This would certainly be in the interests of both Walgreen and Express-Medco.
We currently value Walgreen with a $35 Trefis price estimate of its stock, which is 3% ahead of the current market price.

About DragonFly
These operating systems belong in the same class as Linux in that they are based on UNIX ideals and APIs. DragonFly is a fork in the path, so to speak, giving the BSD base an opportunity to grow in an entirely new direction from the one taken in the FreeBSD-5 series.
It is our belief that the correct choice of features and algorithms can yield the potential for excellent scalability, robustness, and debuggability in a number of broad system categories. Not just for SMP or NUMA, but for everything from a single-node UP system to a massively clustered system. It is our belief that a fairly simple but wide-ranging set of goals will lay the groundwork for future growth. The existing BSD cores, including FreeBSD-5, are still primarily based on models which could at best be called 'strained' as they are applied to modern systems. The true innovation has given way to basically just laying on hacks to add features, such as encrypted disks and security layering that in a better environment could be developed at far less cost and with far greater flexibility.
We also believe that it is important to provide API solutions which allow reasonable backwards and forwards version compatibility, at least between userland and the kernel, in a mix-and-match environment. If one considers the situation from the ultimate in clustering... secure anonymous system clustering over the internet, the necessity of having properly specified APIs becomes apparent.
Finally, we believe that a fully integrated and feature-full upgrade mechanism should exist to allow end users and system operators of all walks of life to easily maintain their systems. Debian Linux has shown us the way, but it is possible to do better.
DragonFly is going to be a multi-year project at the very least. Achieving our goal set will require a great deal of groundwork just to reposition existing mechanisms to fit the new models. The goals link will take you to a more detailed description of what we hope to accomplish.

However we personally feel about it, Facebook has become enormously popular. But one issue facing Facebook, as well as many other social networking and online services, is the privacy and security of its users. Sadly, the small percentage of the global population that wants to commit a variety of cybercrimes has found that social networking services are a fertile hunting ground, and Facebook is no exception.

It's not known as the most popular bass fishing lake in Texas, but truth be known, Lake Austin is an up-and-coming star when it comes to producing 13-pound-plus largemouth bass.
"Lake Austin continued to solidify its ranking as one of the best trophy bass lakes in Texas with Toyota ShareLunker 548, caught March 27 by Round Rock angler Colin Pack while fishing in a tournament," said Larry Hodge with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
Hodge reports that Pack caught the fish in 10 feet of water using a Carolina rig while fishing in hydrilla.

Edge of Outside: Advance Review
June 30, 2006
About This Show
- Summary
A tribute to the fight for artistic freedom in American independent cinema, Edge of Outside features original interviews with Martin Scorsese, Peter Falk, Ed Burns, Spike Lee, Henry Jaglom, Arthur Penn, Gena Rowlands and John Sayles as well as friends and crew members who worked with classic filmmakers, including Nicholas Ray, John Cassavetes and Sam Peckinpah. Offering an intimate look at the various issues, creative and personal, financial and emotional, this documentary illustrates the struggles endured by many classic filmmakers to create a personal vision, a vision mirrored by many contemporary directors today. Edge of Outside dispels the notion that an independent film is simply a low-budget film, instead defining the genre by the maverick filmmaker's ability to infuse his or her films with creative spirit and determination.

Unless pulling a sled or a wagon, dogs do not have to pull. When a dog is pulling hard on the leash, he can injure himself and is certainly a potential danger to his owner. In addition, other dogs will not regard him kindly if he pulls hard toward them. A dog charging into another dog's space and face is considered a rude trespasser. Thankfully, this behavior can be managed or changed.
If your dog is pulling when you go for a walk, you have choices; you can manage his behavior with training tools or you can change his behavior with training. Many dog owners prefer to manage their dog's behavior – prevent him from pulling – as this is often the easiest solution. This is especially true if the dog is a strong, enthusiastic puller.
There are two training tools that are most often recommended. Both of these can be effective tools but, like anything else in this world, neither one is perfect.
Head halters work much like a halter on a horse; where the head goes the body will follow. There are several brands of head halters, each has some slight differences, but basically there is a strap around the dog's muzzle that is connected to a strap around the dog's neck. The leash clips to these straps and this gives you control of the dog's head. If you hold the leash close (but not tight) when the dog tries to pull, his head moves either downward (nose towards the ground) or back towards you. This makes pulling almost impossible.
The head halter is a kind, humane way to manage pulling. Unfortunately most dogs dislike the halter, so make sure good things – treats, meals, petting – occur when your dog is introduced to it. Also, when walking, do not give your dog free movement on the leash. If he dashes and hits the end of the leash, he could wrench his neck badly when the leash tightens on the head halter. Be careful.
The other tool that can help you manage pulling is often referred to as a no pull harness. There is a wide selection of these harnesses available and most are designed to make pulling uncomfortable. Some have a ring for the leash in the front of the harness – at the center of your dog's chest under his neck – while others have a ring for the leash on the top of the back. Some, when the dog pulls, create pressure across the dog's biceps, or across the joints of his front legs, while others tighten around his chest.
All of these can be effective, depending on the individual dog, his physical conformation, and how hard he pulls. The primary downfall to these training tools is that they can cause some physical harm. Several veterinarians I have interviewed have seen dogs with sore front legs, damaged front leg and shoulder joints, and sore ribs. As with any tool, they must be used correctly. If you try one, make sure you read and follow the directions for that particular brand of harness.
When using any training tool, no matter how well-designed it may be, the key is to use it correctly. Read and follow the directions, make sure it fits your dog properly, and stop using it immediately if your dog appears to be sore at all.
The goal of training is to permanently affect your dog's behavior. With a problem behavior such as pulling on the leash, the goal is to teach your dog to walk nicely on a leash without pulling. This is more difficult than simply changing training tools, of course, and requires time, effort, and practice.
The first training exercise to teach your dog is 'Watch me.' When your dog can pay attention to you, even with distractions, then you can begin working on leash skills.
Unless your dog weighs more than you, or threatens to pull you off your feet, you can be an anchor when your dog pulls. When the leash tightens, stop walking, and plant your feet. Do not take a single step forward until your dog turns back towards you. Then do a 'watch me' command and praise your dog. In the beginning, you may have to be an anchor every few steps. That's okay.
An alternative technique that works for many dogs is the about turn. When your dog begins pulling forward, simply turn around and walk the other direction. Do not pull your dog off his feet or yank his neck hard; simply walk the other way. When he catches up to you act surprised, "Oh, there you are! Good boy!"
If your dog is overly excited and he acts as if there isn't a brain cell in his head, stop walking, and help him sit. Keep a hand on his collar so you can help him. Don't do anything else or ask anything else from him at the moment; just help him sit and let him calm down. When he's able to do it, then ask him to 'watch me' and begin all over again.
Your goal with all these techniques is to help your dog understand that he can move freely on the leash as long as he pays attention to you – where you are – and doesn't pull on the leash.
What would you like to do with your dog now and in the future? If you'd like to do some therapy dog volunteer work or some trick training, then leash skills are important. You'll need to invest some time and effort into training. However, if you would like to walk nicely with your dog without your arm being pulled out of the socket, then training tools to manage his behavior might be in order.
Leash skills needn't be one technique or the other, however. You can use management skills while you train your dog. You can use training tools – a head halter, for example – while teaching him to pay attention to you. There are many alternatives.

This week started as all week's should…on a kayak, floating on the gorgeous Pacific ocean, and swimming with the turles and fishes.
I woke up at 5:30 a.m. (without an alarm clock!) energized and excited to take an eco tour at the Makena Beach & Golf Resort. This is the best way to get over any case of Monday blues one may have.
Off on an adventure
I admit, while on the outside I was trying to be as cool as a cucumber and excited for my tour on those top kayaks, on the inside I was more like "oh my goodness, I've never been on a kayak, by myself, in the ocean..you know where there are unpredicatable conditions…waves, currents, wind and oh yeah, big fish, like sharks…." I was just a wee bit scared.
But, I pulled on my big girl bikini, put on a life jacket, and off we went.
Once in the water, we paddled North to check out the historic and gorgeous Keawalai church. Our guide told us the history of this church and the surrounding areas of Makena.
We then moved North. Off went the life jacket, on went the snorkel gear. Our guide, Jay took great care of us (read: me….the other two writers on the trip were local to Maui, having grown up here their whole life which I think means they are officially mermaids and mermen).
While swimming we encountered three turtles. These beauties never cease to take my breathe away. The way they float on the surface and then glide through the sea, they are simply amazing.
With fish swimming below my dangling finned toes, my guide swam down, brought up a pencil sea urchin and shared how the ancient Hawaiians used to use these to write with. They'd pull of the points, dry them out and use them as a sort of chalk.
"This is how Maui should be seen."
That's what my guide Jay noted, and he's so right. To look back on this amazing island from the ocean, with the gorgeous moutains hanging over us with lava tubes under our toes in the deep blue sea…it was definitely a fantastic Monday morning.

Louise Slaughter and Maggie Brooks Square off at News 8 Studios
Congresswoman Louise Slaughter and County Executive Maggie Brooks are in a heated race for the 25th congressional district.
It didn't take long for sparks to fly when Slaughter and Brooks were asked about creating local jobs, "my opponent is great at rhetoric and rallies she stood there at Hickey Freeman and said she's saving American jobs and darn it that company's going bankrupt," said Brooks, "she was out at GM in Honeoye Falls and said this company is the engine of our future now that company is taking those jobs and that technology to another state, and I haven't heard my opponent say word one about that."
Slaughter responded saying, "I don't represent Honeoye Falls, I was not there," she went on to say, "I'm certainly sorry to see those jobs go but that corporate decision was not made in my district, second the idea about Hickey Freeman, Hickey Freeman is doing well."
The candidates covered a variety of topics during the hour long debate including health care, federal spending, and women's issues. When the talk turned to the negative tone of the campaigns, Brooks and Slaughter went after each other. Slaughter said, "The corruption issue is very important to me, I've worried about it for some time, and I want to make a pledge to you right now that win lose or draw on next Tuesday I'm not through with that." Brooks responded by saying, "it's a distortion and I think people should question a person's integrity when they won't even stand up and take ownership of something that is completely false."
Both campaigns are pleased with their candidates performance, "
I think that any fair minded observer that saw the debate would think that Maggie Brooks did very, very well," said Tom Cook, the Chairman of the Conservative Party of Monroe County. Slaughter campaign spokesman Eric Walker said, "I think it was a great show for viewers at home for why they should re-elect Louise Slaughter for congress."
For the League of Women Voters, which sponsored the debate, it's all about getting information to voters so they can make an informed decision, "that's our main goal especially during this election season to get the information, the correct information, out there and then let the citizens decide on who they think is appropriate for this area, as well as for them," said Brian Valenti, Vice President of the League of Women Voters.
The next time the candidates will square off will be at the polls on election day.
