Dale Bickell joins city leadership team
MISSOULA, Mont. - Mayor John Engen announced today that Dale Bickell will join the city of Missoula's team leadership as the Director of Central Services.
Bickell has worked for Missoula County for 14 years and has served as the chief administrative officer.
Bickell will now oversee the city's finance department, human resources, city clerk's office, information technologies, facility and vehicle maintenance and geographical information system services.
"He's got a great financial style, he has great leadership skills, he understands local government," said Engen.
"This opportunity just gave me the chance to try new challenges and continuing to serve the community is really important to me. The public service aspect of my time at the county and new challenges at the city are really something that I want to continue to work on," said Bickell.
The mayor believes that Bickell's presence will benefit both local governments.
Bickell will start on May 5.
The following is a press release sent out by the City of Missoula:
Mayor John Engen has announced that Dale Bickell will join the City of Missoula's leadership team as Central Services Director on May 5.
Bickell brings significant experience and expertise in local government and financial management to the City. He has worked the last 14 years at Missoula County, serving as Chief Administrative Officer since 2008.
"We're very pleased to have Dale's talent, enthusiasm for our community and experience at the City of Missoula," Engen said. "I've come to appreciate Dale very much as we've worked with the County on a variety of issues over the years, and I know that he'll bring energy and a penchant for problem-solving to our organization. He is also a very nice man."
The City's Central Services Director oversees the Finance Department, Human Resources, City Clerk's Office, Information Technologies, Facility and Vehicle Maintenance and GIS (Geographical Information Systems) Services. The emphasis is on serving citizens and City departments effectively.
Bickell is a University of Montana graduate with an undergraduate degree and a master's degree in accounting.
"I've been at the County for 14 years," Bickell said. "I have enjoyed my time there, and I'm proud of the things we've accomplished. But I always like a new challenge, and the projects the City can work on interest me."
Bickell served as Chief Financial Officer for Missoula County from 2000 to 2008. He worked for a local accounting firm for five years while he was also a partner in the then-startup Big Dipper IceCream. He serves on several boards, including United Way of Missoula County. He is a Missoula native who grew up in Helena. His wife, Lisa Bickell, is education director at the Montana Natural History Center. They and their two young children live in the heart of Missoula in Dale's grandmother's house, which has been in the family since the 1950s.
"The public service aspect of working in local government and doing good things for my community are really important to me," he said. "This is an opportunity to continue that."
Bickell's recruitment is part of a larger transition plan as Mayor Engen and City Chief Administrative Officer Bruce Bender prepare for Bender's eventual retirement over the course of the next few years.
Mayor Engen expects Bickell's presence on the City management team to benefit both local governments.
"We've enjoyed a great relationship with the County," he said, "and we expect that Dale's work here will only serve to strengthen that relationship."

Phoenix joined by R. Kelly at Coachella amid Daft Punk rumors
By Piya Sinha-Roy
INDIO, California (Reuters) - Grammy-winning French indie rock band Phoenix headlined the Coachella Valley Music and Arts festival on Saturday, bringing R&B singer R. Kelly as their special guest on stage amid rumors that French electro duo Daft Punk would join them.
Phoenix's lead singer Thomas Mars, Deck d'Arcy, Laurent Brancowitz and Christian Mazzalai, played a selection of old and new songs against the star-lit backdrop of the festival, held in the desert in Indio, California.
The band, which is due to release its album "Bankrupt!" on April 22, sang new songs "Entertainment" and "The Real Thing". It also serenaded the crowd with favorites from its last album, "Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix", such as "Lisztomania" and "Fences".
Kelly's appearance came as a surprise to an audience expecting to see Daft Punk after a teaser music video by the electronic group was played at the start of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' set on Friday.
He joined Phoenix for a mash-up of his hit single "Ignition" with Phoenix's hit "1901".
This is the third time Phoenix has performed at Coachella and its first time headlining the annual three-day event.
"Our vision of Coachella is that you can never be medium. It's either fantastic or a big catastrophe, we don't like medium things. For us, it's always been an extreme experience. The first time we played was our worst show ever, and the second time was one of our best shows ever, it's either a huge failure or success," Mazzalai told Reuters ahead of the band's set.
After the success of the 2009 album "Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix", which spawned hits such as "1901" and won a Grammy for best alternative music album, Phoenix returned to the studio to record "Bankrupt!". Continued...

Manti Te'oAfter initially over-pursuing (Kerry Neal had the sideline sealed off), stuck with QB Robert Marve on a cutback to force the season's first punt…played a tunnel screen to Keith Smith expertly to force a 3rd and 6, limiting the receiver to one-yard with an ankle tackle; that play routinely went for big yardage vs. the Irish last season. An excellent read by Te'o who got late help from a hustling Cwynar…lost Dierking out of the backfield on a designed roll but did drill the senior after the catch…lost sight of the football on a delayed draw to Dierking, instead running to the outside flat though Neal had Marve dead-to-rights had the QB kept the football…failed to get off block by RT Nick Mondek but received help from Calabrese/safeties short of the first down…great recognition of quick-look pass to slot receiver but completely whiffed in space…missed a point-blank fill tackle on Dierking that would have negated a first down run (13 yard gain, Te'o met him around Yard #6)…weak attempt vs. backup QB Rob Henry (a good athlete) on the ensuing play as Henry ran through his attempt for a 9-yard gain…diagnosed another tunnel screen; missed again, but was aided by Harrison Smith and a hustling Ethan Johnson to stop Smith short of the marker; nice range by Te'o on the play but he lost his feet.
Second Half: Missed space tackle on Justin Siller though not an easy play in pursuit after the catch…Fought off a block to tackle Dierking after an 8-yard gain on 2nd and 15…Soft tackle attempt (no power or feet) vs. Dierking on a swing route that should have been stopped for a 5-yard gain on 3rd and 9 but Dierking gained 8…Like Neal, diagnosed Marve's roll on 4th and 1 attempt near the goal line; Te'o showed incredible burst to close on Marve from about 8 yards away…Made his best play after a tunnel screen to stop Cortez Smith short of the marker after a 2nd and 5 catch; excellent read and speed, plus the stop by Te'o…Followed that up one series later with a dominant effort, again reading a wide receiver screen and dropping Smith one-on-one in space…
Observations: Te'o needlessly over pursues when he has a teammate already in position to cut out the running lane toward the outside/sideline…he'll one day be a force vs. the short passing game but will need to keep his feet next week vs. a quicker Michigan team and lightning fast QB Denard Robinson.
Brian SmithCovered no one as field side drop linebacker resulting in a 14-yard gain to Keith Smith in the left (field side) flat…disguised a delayed blitz well to bother Marve on second possession…Allowed himself to be blocked by WR Justin Siller on run action to his flat…kept outside containment to force Antavian Edison inside where Calabrese made the stop…Pressured Marve into rushed 3rd down throw but coverage behind him failed (there's a chance that tight end Kyle Adams was actually his man, however).
Second Half: Missed a point-blank tackle in pursuit, sliding off Dierking for an 8-yard gain…Physical hit on blocking back on 3rd and 1 might have been the hit of the day, but the play went for 8 yards inside…Lost simple containment to his side on boot left, allowing fullback Jared Frank an easy path to the flat for 14 yards…Good fill and tackle vs. Marve in open space after a designed roll…Inexcusable mental mistake on 4th and 1 to lose containment on Marve (its not like it was his first outside boot/roll) to allow a 2
Observations: Makes too many mistakes and misses too many tackles for a senior and 25-game starter; difficult to understand from a studious player.
Darius FlemingMissed his first chance for a sack on the season's first play, whiffing on Marve's pirouette in the backfield…faked out by a stutter from Al-Terek Burse on the ensuing handoff…lost contain of Marve one series later for a gain of 8 yards to the boundary side…fought off lead block to help stop Dierking on 3rd and 1…took out two blockers on 2nd and short to allow Gary Gray a tackle…good pursuit of Marve on a 2nd Quarter roll-out though was cut down before he could get to the mobile QB.
Second Half: Sat out much of the second half due to cramping.
Observations: Sub par start for a player I've pegged for All-America mention next year.
Carlo CalabreseCombined with Lewis-Moore for a stop of Crank at the line of scrimmage on second series; nice fill by Carlo…suckered out of his assignment (fullback out of the backfield) on Purdue's initial 4th down conversion for 6 yards; Carlo bit on play-action…nice pursuit tackle on Marve for a short gain after Te'o slowed the QBs initial charge on a designed draw…bad run support angle allowed Dierking an easy 13 yards on a delayed draw.
Second Half: Impressive clean-up tackle of Dierking after the catch on 3rd and long to force a first possession punt…Stayed home to clean-up Dierking with form tackle in the backfield…Saved a long gain with ankle tackle of Dierking up the gut on 3rd and 1…Filled up the gut to stop Dierking for no gain on 3rd and 1
Observations: Covers more ground than I thought he would in pursuit/pass coverage after the catch…Played his role exceptionally well for a first career start.
Kerry Neal Stayed home twice in the first three series to take away outside options but was betrayed by the over-pursuit of his teammates…Narrowly missed a diving safety of Marve on the second play of the 2nd Half…Stunt from left defensive end spot (Dime defense) forced Marve to flee from the pocket and into the arms of Ian Williams for a drive-ending sack…lost sight of the ball (followed Marve) on sprint option run to his side but was bailed out by Calabrese…Maintained crucial containment vs. Marve on 4th and 1 that was deflected by Gray (and intercepted by Williams)…Allowed himself to be blocked too easily on a late-game reverse…
Observations: Reads his pass keys and misdirection much better than both Brian Smith and Manti Te'o…Neal is a much more disciplined drop linebacker than his classmate Smith…Seems to have benefitted the most from the new coaching staff through one game.

A Time to Die
With her hands bound, Elena desperately spins her head from one side to the other; unable to see behind her. The click and clack of claws against the floor grows ever closer.
"Jack," she says, her heart nearly beating out of her chest. "Jack, if it's really you, then I know you love me. I know that you didn't spend all this time just hiding behind me." Tears begin to run down her cheeks.
There is a moment of silence. Elena holds her breath, fear forces her every sense to heighten. She hears the beating of her heart, the blood rushing through her body, pulsing so hard she feels it in her neck, like hands strangling her.
A low snarl finally breaks the silence, and sends her stomach plummeting like a stone. She feels the warm rhythmic breath at her hands, and then a violent tug pulls her arms so far back her shoulders cry out in pain. She too, screams, terror exploding in her mind. When her primal flee response finally subsides enough for logical thought to regain control, she realizes she's running. Stopping, Elena turns around with eyes like saucers and stares at the chair, her bonds laying torn a few feet behind its steel frame.
The Jackal had set her free.
Her own voice echoes from everywhere, "He won't let you keep doing this."
Elena shook her head, wincing. "What do you mean? What do you want?"
"To stop."
This time the voice was directly behind her ear. Elena spins to find herself face to face with her eyeless double. The deep sockets writhing with maggots.
She screams, falling back, tears of terror flowing from her wide eyes. "Stop what?" She asks with a trembling voice.
"Living." It says, as a dark cloud of flies pour out of the deep furrows that once held the windows to her soul.
The buzzing becomes so intense Elena clings to her ears; but it does nothing. She stands, and turns to run from the grotesque sight but runs headlong into another body. Once again Elena is on the ground, looking up at the bloodshot eyes of her mute self.
The double stares at her with a piercing glare as her mouth slowly opens. Inside, a dark void reaches all the way to the back of her throat. The doubles hands come up and hook on to her bottom teeth, her fingers bleeding as she pulls downward.
Elena shakes her head, "Stop, no, stop," she says, with a meek voice that can barely escape her contorted lips as she watches on, unable to take her gaze away.
The crackle of ligaments tearing away from the bone clatters even louder than the flies overhead. The slimy wet slapping of flesh being rent asunder echoes like a thunderclap. The lower jaw falls to the floor, blood red painting its torn edges with the stark white highlights of sinew and bone.
Elena stands, holding her ears so tightly she feels her nails digging into her own flesh. She screams, pain pulsating through her head. She can't help it, the buzzing is too much to take. Her fingernails break through and with clenched teeth and eyes cemented shut in agony; she tugs.
Standing there, breathing like she'd ran a marathon, Elena feels an unbelievable relief. She looks to her sister selves, one jawless, one eyeless, and looks down at her hands. In each clenched fist she sees blood pouring from between her fingers, sliding along tufts of hair. Her fingers open slowly to reveal the bloody remnants of her ears in each palm. "What did I do?"
"You can hear me now."
The Jackal trots up between the Eyeless and Jawless. It sits, lapping its lips with a pink tongue.
"I've waited so long to speak with you, for you to hear my voice again."
"They said you were still alive."
"In a sense, I suppose I am. That was the point really. I've spent a lifetime trying to understand the moments after life has left the body. It wasn't for nations, it wasn't to take over England or to gain power. It was to be with you. All I ever wanted was to be with you."
Elena shakes her head. "But, what is this? Where are we?" Around her, the world was a night sky, it's stars spinning so quickly the pricks of light strung trailers that drew circles around them.
"Right now, you're asleep. You see, my research discovered that sleep is intrinsically linked to death. It's like the waking world is above the waterline; death is in the depths and sleep is when you're just floating on your back; your ears submerged. It's the only state in which you can hear both worlds, albeit muffled and distorted."
"If that's true, why can I hear you perfectly right now."
"Because you're not just floating on the surface baby. You're diving deep right now."
Elena's fear returned tenfold. "Am I dying?"
"If you stay too long, maybe, I don't know."
"They said … they said you wanted me to stop living, is that true?"
With a high pitch whine, the Jackal yawns. When Jack spoke, it was never through the animal itself; it was directly into her soul. "Yes, but not now. Death comes to us all; and I can wait, however painful it will be to stay apart from you. We have a job to do Elena, but we can't do it alone."
"What job, and who can help us?"
Standing, the Jackal snarls, bearing its white teeth. "They're trying to eavesdrop. We have to be quick. Follow me."
Running past her, the Jackal's every step illuminates the darkened sky of ethereal stars that swirl around them. Jack stops and looks back. "Elena, you need to keep up."
"I can't run as fast as you can Jack, you're a dog ... I can't believe I just said that."
"Then be one too."
Another Jackal passes her by, this one eyeless, then another with a dark fissure reaching down its throat.
Feeling an itch, Elena reaches forward with her hind leg and scratches the wound where her ears once were. Her eyes shoot wide open and a yelp escapes her jagged jaws instead of the gasp she was expecting.
"Come on!" Says her eyeless companion.
As if she'd always been an animal, Elena bursts into a full sprint, slowly catching up to the others as they race across a landless dreamscape.
*** *** *** *** *** *** ***
Carter kneels at the treeline. Looking from side to side, he makes eye contact with the other squad leaders of the assault group. There are no words, they've already rehearsed the assault and radio silence is a must at this crucial moment; where any tip off could render the operation a disaster.
A masked soldier crawls up from behind him. "Sir."
"What is it?"
"Two Section says they've encountered an obstacle, they need orders to breach or reroute. Either way, it'll take some time and we need to postpone the main assault."
Carter didn't answer.
"Sir?" The soldier puts his hand on Carter's shoulder. "Jesus Christ!"
Carter's eyes are white; rolled back into his skull. He falls limp to the forest floor.
*** *** *** *** *** *** ***
Standing on a beach, Carter surveys his surroundings. "Not now," he says. "Why now? What do you want?" He screams to the nothingness of his paradise prison.
Four Jackals crest the forest line and come rushing down the beach, wet sand catapulting into the air behind them as they sprint.
Carter instinctively reaches for his pistol, but it isn't there. He looks around, searching for an object to protect himself with. The wood line is nearly fifty meters away and he knows the canines will reach him before he gets there.
The leading animal slows, and the others follow suit. They trot up to Carter.
Elena nuzzles her husband. "How do we get him to understand us?"
"Pulling him here took a lot from me, he's still too shallow. We need him deeper before he can interact with us."
Elena looks to the water and then to Carter. "I hope he forgives me."
One of the animals sits, while the other three move forward.
Carter is panicking, "Stay back."
"Sorry Carter," Elena says, looking left and right to her vestiges.
Something is odd about these three. They aren't whole. Carter see's one has dark holes for eyes, the other has a stub of a tongue hanging like rotting meat from the roof of it's mouth, with no bottom jaw to hold the thing from flapping back and forth as it walks. The leading Jackal's ears are torn clean off, blood soaked fur trailing down either side of its head.
"What in the hell?"
All three then lunge at him simultaneously and drag him down to the ground. Carter is struggling, but he can't overpower them. They pull at his limbs, all three dragging him toward the water.
"No!" He screams, as the rolling waves begin lapping at his shoulder, and then his head. "Aaaaarrgh!" The final scream gurgles into silence as his head is submerged. He is pulled deeper and deeper into the ocean, past the breaker and into the darkness. The need for air begins to scratch at Carter's mind. Soon, it overwhelms the conscious thought of holding his breath and he gasps. The muffled sound of bubbles echoes past him as his lungs fill with salt water. Again, he breaths in the ocean and convulses. His eyes bulge from his face as he gives in and lets the darkness take him. He hears the hissing of water rushing into his lungs as they finally fall limp in his chest. A wave crashes nearby and his ears catch it pummeling the beach, but suddenly the crashing utters his name. He realizes he isn't dead.
To his surprise, his feet are on solid ground, the four Jackals in front of him once again. He falls to his knees and regurgitates ocean water, adding to the puddle his clothes had made. "What the hell is going on?" He says, between labored breaths.
"You're walking into a trap Carter."
"Jack? How is this possible? You're dead."
"You've seen my research, you know some parts of what I was working on."
"What you were working on in the lab was just a cover, sleeping pills? You were researching the afterlife, what the hell do sleeping pills have to do with that?"
"Let's just say I was trying to find a way to commune safely with the underworld, and it didn't go so safely."
"Why, what happened?"
"I wasn't getting results fast enough. I was told to speed up my research and Sabre decided to slip me a sample of my prototype formula. It worked … but I didn't know what the side effects were going to be since I had no time to test. Regardless, before it killed me, I was able to understand this sliver of the world between life and afterlife."
"What does Sabre want this for? How will it help them take England?"
"If you seriously think the USA is interested in invading England you're more stupid than I thought."
"Not taking over, but infiltrating; planting a puppet government. You know what I mean."
"Carter, everything is a means to an end; that end is usually power of some form. Whether it's money or resources, the government of the United States isn't going to put their assets at risk for politics or global favor alone. There's always an agenda, and it's usually a node in a spider web so far away from the true goal that most people wouldn't even have the slightest inkling as to what it was."
"Just ... I need to know. Why here? Why England? If they aren't trying to take over the government, why not do this research elsewhere."
"Because elsewhere, there aren't people like you and Elena. Have you ever heard of Mitochondria? They're used in population genetic studies because it's possible to isolate geographical inheritance of certain genetically similar groups based on a gene tree. It turns out that only a small percentage of the population has a certain genetic marker that allows for my research to pull them into these torporific fugue states; the vast majority of them in this region of the world."
"Are you telling me you drugged me too?"
"No, but I suspect Sabre did. My death was most likely due to the fact that I don't share that marker. The dreams you've both been having are linked to the prototype formula."
Sighing, Elena chimed in. "I don't understand how a pill makes you a ghost."
Carter shot his eyes up to the earless jackal. "Elena? How are you-"
"It's complicated, I'll explain later. Right now we need your help. Jack? What do we need to do?"
"Carter needs to get to the real headquarters to destroy the research they've stolen from me, and of course to rescue you.
"There's a reason we aren't supposed to know what's beyond this barrier. There are things deep beneath us that aren't ever supposed to find their way up. Imagine if every person who slept suddenly had their minds devoured by some creature from that abyss? I don't even want to entertain the possibility that they could somehow control the bodies of their consumed victims and travel beyond the surface and into our world in the husks of their prey."
Carter shakes his head. "That's what it was then. You weren't researching death per se, but a way to control another from a distance; a way to infiltrate the mind through the collective unconsciousness of humanity."
"Yes, but what they don't understand is that it isn't only the unconsciousness of humanity. It is the unconsciousness of all living things, which does not limit itself to our little blue planet. There are things out there, terrifying things … just trust me."
"I do," Carter says, standing up. "Give me the location and I'll re-jig the operation."
Jack shakes his coat and stands. "First something else has to happen."
"What's that?" Elena asks as Jack stares at her with yellow eyes.
"You are broken. You were torn apart by my passing and haven't been the same since. Beyond that, you have missed these aspects of yourself even before we met. They were stripped away from you as you traveled through life. Like razor blades, the stresses of social life sliced at your confidence and self esteem for years. You need to become whole again."
She looked at her vestiges and back to Jack. "How?"
"I can't tell you that. This world, though without shape and form, is not much different from the world of the living. Though I can give you advice to a destination I can never know the path you need to take to get there."
Elena stands and stares into the cavities of her eyeless self. "You can't see yourself, you can't see how beautiful you are," she says to herself. "You can't see how much people love you, instead you choose to see the negativity in everything. I hate you." She turns to the tongueless. "You stay silent when I am screaming inside. You say what is polite in the place of what is right. You are a coward. You hold back when I need to lunge forward." Introspectively, she feels the pain of her missing ears. "I am the worst of all. I shut myself out. I listen to no one. I refuse to accept what I hear and I burn bridges when I should be building them." Elena's lip curls, bearing bright white fangs. "I am better than this, better than you!"
"Prove it," says the eyeless, as she lunges forward and sinks her teeth into Elena's side.
There is a yelp, followed by growling, and soon all three Jackals are locked in a tumbling battle so ravenous that neither Carter nor Jack can tell any of them apart. Tufts of fur fly; bloody strings of flesh trailing through the air. The sound of the ordeal is hair raising as each Jackal whines and growls, snaps and yelps. Moments pass, and the gruesome scene somewhat calms. One Jackal remains standing, violently gorging itself on the fresh kills. It laps up the last of the flesh and turns to Jack and Carter, shaking it's coat of the blood it had just bathed in.
"Elena?" Carter asks, warily.
The Jackal replies with a piercing stare and howls so loudly Carter reels back and holds his ears.
When his eyes open from the cringe, the Jackal is gone.
"She knows what to do," Jack says. "She's awake now. It's your turn to wake up too, so that we can finish this."
Carter nods.
*** *** *** *** *** *** ***
"He moved! Sir, are you alright?"
"What happened?"
Carter waves the soldier away and stands. "We're at the wrong location, follow me."

From the Washington Post Venessa Williams :
Artur Davis, the former Alabama Democratic congressman and rising star who crashed and tried to regain his political swagger as a Republican, says his decision to re-join his old party is part of his return to his "roots."
"I made a personal decision once I relocated to Alabama to engage local priorities, and to reconnect with my roots in politics: helping poor communities, reviving public education, putting jobs in sides of town that don't have good jobs today," Davis, who in August lost a bid for mayor of his native Montgomery, Ala., said via e-mail.
A little over three years ago, Davis had been one of the first members of Congress to endorse Obama in the 2008 Democratic presidential primary. At that year's party convention, Davis, who like Obama was raised by a single mother, graduated from Harvard Law School and became a member of Congress, praised the party's first African American presidential nominee as the leader of a new era of politics.
Two years later, Davis sought to use that new black leadership brand in his bid to become the first African American governor of Alabama. Positioning himself to the right of his party, he touted his vote against the Affordable Care Act, and in an effort to downplay race, he declined to court some traditional black organizations. Black voters instead backed a white candidate and Davis lost by 24 points.
After that crushing defeat, Davis left the Democratic Party. He quit his House seat and moved to Northern Virginia, where he flirted with the idea of running for Congress as a Republican, ultimately deciding against the idea.
Last year he returned to Alabama and ran in the nonpartisan mayoral race in his hometown, coming in a distant second to the incumbent mayor Todd Strange. Now, he's mulling a run for the Montgomery County Commission — as a Democrat.
"I have no ill will toward Republicans, and nothing but kind words to say about the many Republicans at every level who welcomed me in 2012," Davis said when asked if he'd become disillusioned with the GOP.

Morris County NJ Personal Trainer Carey Yang Blessed by Jeremy Lin "Linsanity" Inspiring Story
Morris County NJ personal trainer and fitness expert Carey Yang was inspired by the transformational story of New York Knicks player Jeremy Lin and shared lessons learned to use for everyday work and life.
"Lin's story is beyond unbelievable. How could all the coaches, talent scouts, sports reporters and newscast miss him for all these years?" says Carey Yang, a certified personal trainer and fitness expert.
Yang is the owner and master personal trainer at Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC -- a leading in-home personal training and weight-loss management company serving and helping clients in Morris County, Sussex County, Passaic County, Essex County and Somerset County areas in New Jersey.
After getting his first career start Monday and leading the Knicks to three victories, Lin went for 38 points Friday Feb. 10 to take down the Los Angeles Lakers. Not only was he treated to "MVP" chants at Madison Square Garden, but he also has hijacked league discourse. "If you miss his TV highlights, you'd be advised to check him out on YouTube," Yang said.
The "Lin Sensation" capped the week with 5th straight win over Minnesota Timberwolves at 100:98. With the NBA's first American-born player of Chinese or Taiwanese descent smashing barriers and taking a bulldozer to ethnic profiling, anyone with a pulse, no matter your loyalties, has to feel at least some of the warmth radiated by this incredible turn of events.
Lin has led the Knicks to 7 straight wins in the past two short weeks. "Linsanity" phenomenon is outrageously crazy. "We all can learn a lot of lessons from Lin's story to apply to our work and life," Yang said.
1. Believe in yourself when no one else does.
Lin's only the 3rd graduate from Harvard to make it to the NBA. He's also one of only a handful of Asian-Americans to make it. He was sent by the Knicks to play for their D-League team 3 weeks ago in Erie, PA. He'd already been cut by two other NBA teams before joining the Knicks this year. You've got to believe in yourself, even when no one else does.
2. Seize the opportunity when it comes up.
Lin got to start for the Knicks because they had to start him. They had too many injuries. Baron Davis was gone. The other point guards were out. Carmelo Anthony was injured. Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death. Lin could have squandered the opportunity and we would have never have noticed. But he made the most of it. You never know when opportunities are going to arise in life. Often, they're when you least expect them. Make the most of them. Don't fritter them away.
3. People will love you for being an original, not trying to be someone else.
You've got to be you. You can't be some 2nd rate copy of Michael Jordan. There will never be another Michael Jordan. Just be Jeremy Lin — yourself. Whatever that is. That doesn't mean you don't work hard — it just means you find what you're good at and do it. Fans will love you for being you, just like they love Jeremy Lin.
4. Stay humble.
If you one day are lucky enough to have newspapers want to put you on the cover in order to sell more, don't let it get to your head. It's been remarkable watching how humble Lin remains through all this media frenzy. It makes his teammates and fans love him that much more.
5. Work your butt off.
Lin couldn't have seized his opportunity if he hadn't worked like crazy for years perfecting his skills. There are no short cuts to hard work. Success is a by product of that. If you've got a Tiger Mom who's always pushed you to work hard, great. If not, let your conscience be your own Tiger Mom! Get up early, stay up late. Nobody gave Lin any free passes. Why should you get any? You can only control what you control and that means you've got to work harder than anyone else you know.

Several years ago we decided to move away from the typical culture of performance appraisals, performance related pay and targets because that culture simply did not provide us with the flexibility our business needed in order to best meet the demands upon it.
The result of the changes we have made is that our staff now know that they can find the right fit between work and home life. They can adapt their career to suit their circumstances and responsibilities. And being family-friendly isn't just about focusing on parents; flexibility is open to everyone, from those with caring responsibilities to those who want to study or pursue particular personal interests.
This has been so important to us and our business. Thanks to our flexible working culture we have seen significant improvements in terms of customer service, productivity, service delivery and staff engagement, ultimately making us a better organisation. And our resident satisfaction levels have never been higher. We were also recently recognised as a top 10 employer for working families in the UK.
So how have we done this? Here are our five top tips for creating a successful flexible workforce:
Define your culture: Creating the culture that reflects the mission and purpose of your organisation is the single most important thing you can do to engage your workforce. It needs to be easy for staff to understand and for line managers to interpret. Engage with staff at every opportunity and ensure that your culture runs through everything the organisation does.
Develop engagement: Build trust across your organisation by 'walking the walk' and doing what you say. This includes taking risks and allowing staff to do what matters to achieve the right result. Trust must be demonstrated from the top and all managers should focus on developing staff. Time and effort spent coaching staff will go a long way and help your staff to remove any barriers that get in their way. Trust empowers staff to make a difference which, in turn, leads to greater flexibility within the workforce and the ways in which you can deliver your service.
Understand what matters: It is absolutely vital to listen and understand what is happening in your business. Get into the work and listen to the demands of your business. Also understand what your staff need on a personal level and explore ways to meet those needs. Peoples' circumstances change, so keep those conversations alive.
Embrace diversity: Everyone is different with different life circumstances, ambitions and demands. Recognising that and generating opportunities open to all is important as it allows staff to set their career to match their situation.
Join it up: Our experience has taught us that a joined-up and consistent approach will help you to build, embed and develop a culture of flexibility. By doing this you will empower your people to make the difference within your organisation.

Ratings for Dr. Ben Heisler
Great surgeon. Nice, personable doctor. Very attentive and always ask me if I had any questions for him after a consultation.
I have been a diabetic on insulin for over 30 years and recently it was discovered by Bridgewater hospital that I have a significant blockage in my left leg around the knee area and a small blackage in the right leg. I was referred to Dr. Ben Heisler by my family doctor (Dr. Kory Jollymore). I saw Dr heisler on Aug 4,2011 at the Fisherman's Memorial Hospital. He was very very rude. He actually insinuated that this blockage, and probably everything else was really my fault. I am 65 years of age have been a diabetic as I said for a very long time and have a lot of complications unforunately. He made me feel terrible. I am about 20 to 25 pounds overweight and getting quite immobile with the leg pain I suffer. I have told my family doctor and he has apologized on behalf of Dr Heisler. I will not be seeing this man again but I think he should not be allowed to treat others in such a manner. His attitude was awful. I have run out of space but could say more

Personally I feel that there are some school districts that can not get any worst. The children with special needs who need it most are the ones getting hurt. Some of the school boards suck but the people keep voting them in again and again and again. Then they make sure relatives and friends from in the city are mostly hired. It's either their friend's-friend, or a relative, or someone they know. The Abbott Burke districts are a waste. And may I add so is their education! Just glance back a few issues of the Record and it's those Abbott Burke districts that fall below the line. Most of the parents don't care either because they are getting all the extra free education for after school baby sitting services and lots of fun trips for the children to go on instead of being inside of a class-room and getting educated. As you say Mediocre Education! That would be an improvement for those districts.
#22 Jan 10, 2009
You got the whole picture speed. And as millions of dollars get squandered in these districts that will never improve as long as the cash rolls in, we keep paying. I hope the next governor gets the sate attorney generals office to take a close look at some of these rat holes out tax dollars are being wasted in. The jerks who keep re electing the incompetence are most likely a product of the same system. History has a way of repeating itself.
This is nothing more than taxpayer subsidized child abuse.

I can verify all that is said above. I was a mentor/big sister for many years with different children. I've put in so much time and effort with children and seniors that I have all kinds of certificates of appreciation. But of course it was over years, years, years, and years so I've seen it all. I've had kids who made it 'one is in St. Eliz. college on a scholarship at this time' & I have also seen some who didn't make it ... one was even on the 'offenders' list. Like with everything else...good and bad. This one little girl I had I'll call 'Jane" to protect her idenity.'Jane' came from Garfield. We were at Wild West City for the day. Around 6PM they have the closing ceremony where they take down the flag. As the flag was being lowered the National Anthem was being played. Everyone in the whole place stood up but 'Jane'. I said to her...."Stand-Up".'J ane' asked, Why? I said because they're playing the National Anthem.'Jane' asked...What's the National Anthem. By this time a few people were looking at us. To make a long story short after it was over I asked her about what happens in school.(Garfield's special ed) She replied to me....The play it on the loud speaker and you only stand if you feel like it. I'm in special ed so if I don't want to I don't have to. My first thought...Great Schools...Uhhhh. She did stand up for me ...on one foot then the other foot then even scratched her butt...but you know what
SHE STOOD. I tried to explain how it was the right thing to do and why we all stand up.----- Years later with another little girl also in special ed from another town we were at Wild West City. And guess what? As the Anthem was being played she automatically stood up at attention with her hand held over her heart. The difference between two seperate Bergen County Towns. Amazing isn't it.
#24 Jan 16, 2009
That is GREAT,Thats what this country is about ITS A FREE COUNTRY AND IF YOU DONT WANT TO STAND AND PUT YOUR HAND OVER YOUR HEART THATS OK. It would be sad if she was punished for not standing for the NATIONAL ANTHEM ,wake up ''' this is still a free country .
#25 Jan 16, 2009
It's about respect Concerned. Something you seem to lack if you think it's a good idea to disrespect our country and the people who give you and the rest of us the opportunity to voice our opinions and live free. It's a small gesture to stand with respect. There are other countries that would punish or execute you for doing less than that. Military cemeteries are full of men & women who died to to give us the freedom to speak our mind and in your case now, make an ass of yourself. Think about it! Funny how it's against the law for a public school to have a bible in it's library, but in prisons it's allowed. Unfortunately, by then it's a bit too late.
United States
#26 Jan 16, 2009
Please take note that concerned is now from Baltimore, MD...can't seem to get rid of 'relative' Baltimore uhh. Talk about disrespect ... it'll start out disrespecting 'whatever' but where will it stop? That is why we have prisons and jails full of Inmates who on purpose disrespect the law. It starts out small in a disrespecting family and ends up big. Same story...different generation. Somewhere along the way someone needs to mentor these children and teach/show them the right thing to do. That's just like I never allowed them to use 'fowl' language with me because as far as I am concerned there are other adjectives to describe whatever they are talking about. Oops a number three, six, and nine....Favorite numbers....Amazing

#27 Jan 16, 2009
She never put her hand over her heart and that was okay...but...she stood. There are somethings that people take for granted and think that it's taught in their home or school system...when it's not. What would ever happen if some day this child had to go to court for whatever reason and when the judge came in ... flicked him/her off and refused to stand? It was the right thing to do.
#28 Jan 17, 2009
Old school I didnt say anything about respect, I said its the persons perogitive if they want to or not , I dont think its mandatory but it would be proper. You cant lock a person up for not standing. Its like when you go to court and you raise your right hand ,you dont have to swear to God you can attest to it. I love this country and its the greatest country in the world but, I get angry when it sticks its nose in other country policies. We should worry about this country only,what country will help us if and when we need help?
#29 Jan 18, 2009
OK Concerned, Your point is well taken. We are more in agreement than we disagree. It is their choice not to respect this country and part of the freedom we have as a result of those who gave their lives or came back with permanent injuries. We always hear how bad the United States is for all our shortcomings, but whenever there is a disaster somewhere in the world, we send food, medical help, money and people to help evacuate, etc. When we got hit on 9/11, where was all the other countries in the free world throwing us any help? Not many.
Too many of us have a bad habit blaming the president for everything that goes wrong, but we never look at the problem any deeper. Brainwashed by television, radio and people with big money behind them and an agenda control our votes and mindset. If this country should ever become a true socialist or dictatorship, where will all those people then go? When you compare this country to all the rest, you fast come to the realization this is the best country in the world. That's why respecting it is so important, because when people lose it, we lose the country.
That's what our enemies are working on so hard.
Breaking the people's will so they can move in on us. Some of the foreigners who now want to make this home aren't made of the same stuff our grandparents were. They expect us to speak their language, feed & house them for free and g take more than they are willing to give back rather than contribute and give their fair share. After they fill their pockets, they move back to their country and live like kings. That just annoys the hell out of me.
#30 Jan 18, 2009
Point well taken. We all work hard for our money in hopes of someday retiring. Thank God I retired when I did. If things don't change soon that will be only a dream for alot of people. I agree that if you get your bread and butter here then the money should be keep here and not sent to their country. The worst thing is I was told by someone that has been here about 10 yrs. that if they form a business here they don't pay taxes for ten years and they can still collect Social Security. How sad is that for the people that worked here all of their lives. There is way too much freebes in this country, we need to start taking care of our own and not everyone eles.

I called for an officer to come and stop a loud party last night. It ended up the officer telling me to act like a lady, and that is understandable that they would have loud music, and the owner daughter kept calling me white trash several times, hence the officer was Mexican. Also the officer didn't do anything but allow these people who r not tax payers, who don't own the house, who kept trasspassing on my property, and who lets their 9 year old kids run around the streets at 12 am. He did not help my family at all and we lived in garfield for many years. Its like they allow these criminals to act this way. Garfield cops are a joke. enough said.

How do you know the cop is mexican? Usually mexicans arent cops their better at picking lettuce enough said
#33 Sep 15, 2009
Hey Liz, so what you are saying is that if you are not a taxpayer you are not allowed to have a party or have some fun?..Also, Im confused it seems to me that you are not a taxpayer of Garfield either, it says that you are from Lodi.So which is it, are u from Lodi or Garfield? And by the way why did you even have to mention that these people are Mexican?
#34 Sep 15, 2009
First of all Liz you are from Lodi. Are you from Garfield and can't spell it because it has to many letters ? I only ask you this because you can't spell trespassing correctly in your post. So I figure Lodi is much easier for you to spell because you are a moron. I can see by your post that you have the mentality of a moron too. How are these people criminals? So what you are saying here is that they can't play music because they don't own the house or pay taxes? I don't see a criminal act here. I see you as a troublemaker jealous neighbor.
#35 Sep 15, 2009
Maybe Liz called the Garfield police and they told her they couldn't help her because she lives in Lodi. Try using the free Spell Check on this site, it makes you look smarter if you have a problem with your spelling.

The name Lou Gehrig evokes so many different thoughts — his streak, his speech, his bravery.
He is revered by collectors and casual fans alike, making him one of those rare players with appeal inside and outside collecting circles.
The wide-ranging interest and fascination, high-demand by collectors and non-collectors as well as very few items which bare his likeness – all put Lou Gehrig memorabilia into a different stratosphere.
If you're hunting for a 1934 Goudey or a signed baseball, you will pay handsomely for either item. But, if you're OK with more obscure items, there's more Larrupin' Lou memorabilia to be had than you'd think.
May 2 marked the 75th anniversary of Lou Gehrig's final game. With that in mind, here's a look at some nice pieces of Iron Horse collectibles that won't break the bank.
The Cards
Lou was active from 1923-1939. His career missed tobacco cards and ended before the appearance of pre-war issues in the late 30s and early 40s. His only mainstream issues – 1933 and 1934 Goudey – cost hundreds if not thousands of dollars.
Affordable alternatives include an assortment of strip cards like this great looking W517, as well as various Exhibit cards, but an even more reasonable option are the Wheaties cards of the mid-1930s. Great color, graphics and price are a decent trade for weird sizes. Wheaties issues, depending on rarity, can consistently be had for right around $140-$160.
The Magazines
Like all things Gehrig, if it has his likeness on it, sellers and collectors both assume it's valuable. Case and point are magazines with Gehrig on the cover. Sellers ask for the moon, but if you're patient there are many affordable examples of Gehrig's mug on a mag.
Here's a nice example with a classic shot from 1939 which sold recently for just $40.
If you're going to add any pin to your collection, be careful. They are about the simplest piece of memorabilia to counterfeit. As far as Gehrig pins and buttons are concerned, there isn't a ton to choose from but what's out there is affordable.
The most affordable Gehrig pin comes from 1938 and it really isn't a pin, but a less desirable lapel tab. Our National Game issued a set of 30 lapel tabs that year that are still easily found. A nice example of Gehrig recently sold for $72. You can find other examples for closer to $50.
Cracker Jack issued a pin set in 1930 that includes a Gehrig. Here's one for $300 but if you're paying attention, lesser condition examples can be found for around $150.
Memorabilia Cards
The continued influx of game-used memorabilia cards into the market has brought down the price of many of these cards – even for players of Gehrig's caliber. There are many examples of game-used Gehrig items, many of which fetch no more than $50-$60. This nice example from 2003 Topps Tribute is all over eBay as are several other Gehrig bat cards. Jersey cards like these are little more expensive but readily available and–if you're OK with cutting up vintage memorabilia–pretty cool.
One of the most underrated bits of memorabilia out there are advertisements. What else features prominent players, have great color and visuals and are almost suspiciously affordable? Baseball players were used to pitch virtually everything in Gehrig's day and Gehrig was a Madison Avenue darling, hocking everything from razors to cigarettes to cigarettes and cigarettes.
Just $10 to $15 and a picture frame and you can add a really good looking piece of memorabilia that in some cases is close to 80 years old.

Seemingly overnight, the global poverty rate looks like it dipped from 19.7 per cent to 11.2 per cent.
How did that happen?
No, philanthropists didn't ride to the rescue. Number crunchers did.
Analysts at the Centre for Global Development, a Washington D.C. think tank, did some calculations using revised purchasing power parity numbers. They discovered the amount of people in the developing world living on less than $1.25 a day – the absolute poverty line – fell from 19.7 per cent to 11.2 per cent, when they examined revised data adjusted for inflation and current currency prices.
Gathering poverty information, the centre explains, usually involves looking at two sets of numbers – national income and consumption surveys and international price data. The International Comparison Project figures out what the purchasing power parity is by comparing what people buy and what the current currency price is, the centre says, which gives a "ratio that is designed to equalize the power of a rupee to buy what Indians buy with the power of a dollar to buy what an American buys."
After checking out the latest purchasing power exchanges for 2011, they came up with new estimates than what was first predicted in 2005.
The centre found the predicted number of $1.25 poor in India in 2010 falls from 396 million to 148 million and the number of poor people in Nigeria goes from 88 to 60 million. But, the revisions, which adjust for inflation and recent currency rates, show Africa has the biggest share of the poorest of the poor while South Asia's share of absolute poor changed from 49 per cent to 34 per cent.
But the centre's Sarah Dykstra, Charles Kenny and Justin Sandefur caution the rosier numbers does not mean life has become suddenly easier for hundreds of millions: "The people who have just been classified as 'not absolutely poor' don't actually have any more money than they did yesterday, and will still struggle in terms of getting a decent job, and many still face grim daily trade-offs between buying school supplies or ensuring their kids are well nourished. In fact, if the new PPP numbers suggest anything it is that the quality of health or education or access to services associated with a given income has just gone down."

Jane: Never Been BetterMature
Matt and Paul walked into the boardroom. I had my head in my hands while reading the newspaper article again. I looked at him as he sat down next to Paul.
"You read this mate?" Paul asked passing him another newspaper. We all stared at him as he read the article.
"Your kidding!" He muttered.
"Afraid not." I replied. "We were stuck between hell and the deep blue sea, we couldn't get her protected because they'll know were watching them and it was a risk to leave her unprotected," Annabel came and sat down with a file," it was a risk we took and it bloody came back to bite us in the arse."
"Actually it might not have." Annabel alleged.
"What have you got?" I felt a sigh of relief,
"Well, Jenna tried to call us last night before she was cut off, obviously someone was fitting an interceptor on the telephone wire as she did. Before she got cut off she managed to tell us something about petrol."
"Petrol?" Matt asked, Annabel nodded in reply.
"Jesus Christ!" I was really getting annoyed. "There planning petrol bombs. But they obviously can't throw them, so there doing it some other way."
"How else can you do it?" Paul was a Tech guy not a bomb technician bless him.
"There are ways. In its simplest form, a Molotov cocktail, better known as a petrol bomb, is a glass bottle containing petrol fuel usually with a source of ignition such as a burning cloth wick held in place by the bottle's stopper. The wick is usually soaked in alcohol or paraffin, rather than petrol.
In action the wick is lit and the bottle hurled at a target such as a vehicle or fortification. When the bottle smashes on impact, the ensuing cloud of petrol droplets and vapour are ignited, causing an immediate fireball followed by a raging fire as the remainder of the fuel is consumed. But as we have no idea what there planning with these things we don't know how there going to use them." I turned to Annabel "Has the phone call been recorded?" I asked.
"Every phone call is recorded." she smiled.
"Very true Annabel" I smiled and turned to Paul. "Do you reckon you could decipher more of the conversation?"
"Sure I can!" Paul was always so enthusiastic. I nodded in approval. I put my head in my hands again as Annabel and Paul walked out.
"Hey you okay Jane?" Matt asked softly.
"Never been better" I smiled to myself.
"No seriously, how are you feeling?"
"I'm fine Matt, thanks for asking."
"Anytime" He walked to the door. "I'm gunna go and help Paul." I nodded.
I actually felt pretty ill. Probably just the stress I told myself.

Pirates of The Caribbean: The Curse of The Black Pearl Reviews
Pirates steams ahead on a mirthless course of script beats and busy action sequences, coldly steered by director Gore Verbinski to the boom-blast-blare coordinates of producing commodore Jerry Bruckheimer.
The movie is better than it deserves to be, given its origins: a ride at Disneyland and Disney World.
(Pirates of The Caribbean: The Curse of The Black Pearl movie review at Guardian [UK])
Pirates will enthrall kids and amuse adults. Its only failing is that at 2 hours and 15 minutes, it's about 20 minutes too long.
Isn't so much a pirate movie as it is the idea of a pirate movie.
[Johnny] Depp is the single best reason to see Pirates of the Caribbean if you're past the age of 10.
While the plot and action are all deliberately familiar, director Gore Verbinski steers a continual course for sheer, mindless, rope-swinging, crow's-nest-hollering summer fun.
Bristling with brash leaps and thrilling spills, Pirates is a stunt fan's heaven.
If you're weary of summer movies that play like extended MTV videos, you'll luxuriate in Mr. Verbinski's purely cinematic technique.
Pirates of the Caribbean may have taken its nutso inspiration from a theme-park ride. But it has become, without a doubt, its own wild ride.
Pirates of the Caribbean is fun -- but only as long as you don't expect much.
An improbably entertaining, if overlong, adventure that brings new meaning to the term 'summer camp.'
Certainly, Pirates has its moments. But it's definitely no 'E' ticket.
Pirates reminds me of a vintage MGM musical, a movie that is more choreographed than directed, and one that serves up good clean fun of the PG-13 variety.
The picture's constant forward movement and breezy sense of amusement about itself provide a certain mild sort of diversion.

The realtime strategy arena has been dominated by the ever-upgradeable system known as the PC since day one. Very few people appear to want to change that, but numerous cross-overs in target markets as well an ever-expanding PlayStation market show that a RTS on a console could make money. And not only that, they can be created first-hand for the PlayStation, not dumped over after they appear on the PC first.
In comes example A, Warzone 2100, a realtime strategy from the predominantly action- and adventure-based games publisher Eidos. In development by Pumpkin Studios, Warzone 2100 looks to beat the graphics of the best-looking Command and Conquer PlayStation iteration, and has the creative feeling that was so well demonstrated in Total Annihilation (also for the PC).
How is that possible? This game is built for the stray mind, the creative gamer who wants to do his or her own thing. You can create a whopping amount of units, totaling 2,000 different kinds in all. Players will start off with a few trucks, and the basic necessities, such as headquarters and energy bases. From these initial vehicles that look like dump trucks (and are essentially drones), you can research, manufacture, and deploy all kinds of offensive-based crafts tanks to roadsters to dunebuggy-style off-road attack crafts.
With 24 fast-play mission maps that get players started, you can jump onto foreign or planetary terrain and get your campaign into gear. You have the choice of keeping your initial campaign throughout the game, too. The benefit of the PlayStation's controller, with its many buttons and shoulder pads, enables the relatively easy selection and movement of vehicles, as well as deployment, construction, and attack.
The storyline set the scenario: Earth, 21st century. A technical error on a satellite defense system sets nuclear warheads onto major targets in Beijing, Moscow, and Washington and within minutes, millions of innocent people are turned into dust as nuclear firestorms rage across the Earth. Less than one million people survive this simple error, and they scamper into primitive bands of rogue groups in search of power, material, or any remnants to re-create the world as we once knew it. This sets up the entire scenario that creates the war-like atmosphere in Warzone 2100.
With games like Starcraft, Command and Conquer, and Total Annihilation dominating the PC market, it's easy to see why Eidos isn't shy about the PlayStation arena. And with little chance of those games ¿ Starcraft is locked exclusively onto the N64 ¿ appearing on the PlayStation, Warzone has almost no competition. There are reasons for skepticism, however. Pumpkin Studios, to our knowledge, hasn't created any games previous to this one, and realtime strategies aren't a piece of cake, either. Still, hopefully Warzone 2100 will play as easy and as intuitively as those titles. It's already a good looking with a tremendous amount of potential.

Australian High Commissioner Patrick Suckling, while congratulating the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on "historic" accomplishment, said engineers working at the CDSCC played a key role in confirming that the spacecraft entered the orbit of the Red Planet.
He said CDSCC's Deep Space Station 43, which has supported many important space missions, captured the minute signals from the mission. "I commend ISRO on this historic event," Suckling said adding, "It is an important milestone for ISRO and for Indian space research and exploration."
India became the first nation in the world to successfully reach Mars on its first attempt when indigenously built 'Mangalyaan' unmanned spacecraft entered the orbit of Mars. Talking about CDSCC's role, he said it was an example of the expanding scientific cooperation between Australia and India.
"The Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex is the prime station for the mission as it relays data to mission control at ISRO's Telemetry Tracking and Command Network in Bangalore. This is a critical element of this mission," he said. Australia and India have a strong record of cooperation in space research and exploration. The two countries had signed a Memorandum of Understanding on Civil Space Cooperation in 2012.

Brevard Co. sitting criminals down with parents
BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. - The problem of juvenile crime in Brevard County has gotten so bad, the sheriff and state attorney's office want to hold a special meeting where parents will sit down with criminals.
Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey spoke about the new initiative.
He believes parents are the first line of defense in cleaning up the community.
The sheriff said a lot of parents are just afraid to discipline their children because they're afraid they're going to get in trouble themselves.
That means their undisciplined children are getting in trouble with the law.
The sheriff believes juvenile crime is worse now than ever before.
He said juvenile criminals turn into adult criminals and it becomes a vicious cycle.
The criminals often end up behind bars or getting killed.
He's planning seminars at local churches called "time to be a parent again."
He'll first lay out the type of crimes children are committing.
Then state attorney Phil Archer will talk to parents about what they can do legally to discipline their children without getting in trouble.
"We want our parents to be the Chief Law Enforcement Officer in their child's life. The
sheriff or chief of police is not that person in their life, you are. You're with your kid every day. You're responsible for holding them accountable, and more importantly you're the one who has the ability to hold them accountable," Ivey said.
The first seminar is at the new life Christian Church in Titusville on Nov. 23 and a second one will be in January.
A panel of criminals from the Brevard County chain gang will answer questions from parents about what went wrong in their lives.

The Hurricane has been buried in central London since an astonishing act of bravery during the Second World War battle.
Pilot sergeant Ray Holmes, of 504 Squadron, saved the Palace by ramming a German Dornier bomber after he ran out of ammunition on 15 September 1940.
Holmes survived after bailing out of his plane and is now 89.
Channel Five today announced Fighter Plane Dig - Live, in which a team will attempt to unearth the Hurricane, after experts pinpointed the site where it crashed.
Sgt Holmes sliced the tail of the Dornier, which was about to bomb the Palace, causing it to crash.
He will discuss his act of bravery on the show, which will be broadcast at the end of May.

Cincinnati Bengals punter Kevin Huber suffered a broken jaw and cracked vertebrae on a punt return in the Bengals' loss Sunday night to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Steelers linebacker Terence Garvin's helmet hit Huber squarely in the chin, although no flag was thrown on the play. Garvin most likely will be fined.
The injury came late on a 67-yard return of a punt by the Steelers' Antonio Brown. Huber left the game with a bloody face and will be placed on the season-ending injured-reserve list, ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported.
"Seeing the way he was laying down there you are automatically thinking the worst," kicker Mike Nugent said (via Cincinnati.com). "Working with someone every day like that, that's family. It's just tough to see someone in pain like that."
Andy Dalton will replace Huber, whose jaw was wired shut immediately after the game, as Nugent's holder.

Failure is an indication that you are trying.
No one is perfect, and we are not all geniuses.
The majority of us will fail at something,
And keep failing at it until it gets right.
Failure is not a negative thing;
It is a stepping stone to success.
Failure is an indication that you keep trying,
And that success is closer,
Because success is a process.
Never give up trying, and never succumb to failure,
Because success is made up of a combination of these.
