2 more sue Milwaukee police over strip searches
Lawsuits over stirip searches by Milwaukee police continue to pile up in federal court, with the latest filings bringing the total to at least 20 plaintiffs.
The federal civil rights violation claims started in July, shortly after one former police officer at the center of most of the complaints, Michael Vagnini, was sentenced to 26 months in prison for illegal rectal searches and misconduct in office.
The latest suit, filed this week, is from a woman who claims she was strip searched three times by a female police officer who reached into the plainitff's bra and underwear looking for drugs. It names two officers as defendants who have not before been linked to the majority of other cases involving Vagnini and three other former officers who were all convicted of crimes.
According to her suit, Monica Acevedo -- who was 16 at the time -- and her father were just leaving home for her school one morning in April 2011 when they were stopped by officers who surrounded Acevedo's house and ordered her and her father out of the car.
Acevedo says officer Jasmine Pasho took her inside the home, and into a bathroom, ordered her to take of her jeans and then groped her genital area.
Officer Miguel Correa then ordered Acevedo to incriminate her father. When she would not, she was searched twice more by Pasho, while Acevedo was wearing only undewear.
Pasho "conducted the searches in an unsafe, unhygienic, and intentionally humiliating fashion," according to the suit, and without a warrant or even reasonable suspicion that Acevedo had drugs. None were found on her, accoridng to her lawsuit.
Joe Bohannon, 36, claims he was driving in April 2008 when he was stopped, ordered out of his car and subjected to a public anal search by Vagnini, who pulled a baggie of cocaine from Bohannon's anus while Vagnini's partner watched.
According to his lawsuit, filed late last month, Bohannon elbowed Vagnini to get away but was chased down, caught and repeatedly struck and kicked by both officers and others who had come to the scene..
Plaintiffs in both cases are represented by Chicago civil rights law firm People's Law Office and Milwaukee attorney Robin Shellow.

Is Jo Wood a better advert for the virtues of two decades on an organic diet – or for the benefits of a quickie divorce from an errant rock-star husband? Hard to know for sure, but something's making this woman – this model-turned-rock-star-Wag-turned-divorcée- party-girl-and-pop-up-restaurateur – especially sparkly and upbeat.
Wood is 54 years old, a mother of three (plus one stepson) and a grandmother of six, and she looks good on it. She channels a birdish kind of glamour: purposely tousled hair, a delicate body; she has a brilliantly hectic demeanour. She flits about Holmwood House – a sprawling hunting lodge on the edge of Richmond Park in south London, built as a gift from Queen Victoria to Albert, which has been Wood's family home for 10 years and is now rammed with antique lamp shades and bohemian flounces and the paraphernalia of a rock-starry existence (art, guitars, snapshots of Wood and Brad Pitt). Jo Wood is excitable and passionate, and when she laughs she sounds like Barbara Windsor in Carry On mode. She wants to show me things: her granddaughter Maggie ("Who is six months old today. Happy half, Maggie. Look at that face!") and the stacks of beautiful mismatched antique crockery she's gathered for her latest project, a pop-up organic restaurant called Mrs Paisley's Lashings, which will run in the house in the run up to Christmas and is the reason for today's interview.
The last time Jo Wood talked to Observer Food Monthly was January 2005. The focus of that article was Wood's long-term love affair with organic food; and her quiet mission to spread the word about natural, fertiliser-free, seasonally dictated diets. Wood embraced an organic lifestyle earlier than most – in 1989, after being misdiagnosed with Crohn's disease. She was prescribed steroids. It transpired that she was suffering from a perforated appendix, something she believes she wouldn't have survived if herbalist Gerald Green hadn't encouraged her to go completely organic three months before her appendix erupted.
"So I'm laid in hospital, thinking: 'I'm well! I'm well! Jo, you've done it! I am meant to be here. And I am meant to be an organic girl!'"
In the interview Wood spoke about how she'd converted the extended Wood tribe (her older son James; her stepson Jesse; her younger children, Leah and Tyrone) to an organic diet. Most significantly, she said, she had converted her husband Ronnie Wood, the notoriously hard-living and generally toxic guitarist for the Rolling Stones. "If he didn't have such a good diet, all organic, he wouldn't be in such good health," she said at the time. Ronnie was her success story, her ongoing project, living proof that organic could turn you around. She'd even got him smoking organic tobacco in his roll-ups. "He might not even be here [without the organic diet]," she went on, "because he has abused his body a lot… really, a lot."
Four years later: Wood has maintained the organic diet – but ditched the husband. Although technically Ronnie ditched her; running out on 23 years of marriage with a twentysomething waitress in tow. In July 2008 Ronnie Wood began a horribly public relationship with a very young Russian named Ekaterina Ivanova. Ronnie – who has spoken openly about how hard he has struggled with alcoholism – was pictured drinking with Ivanova; his marriage to Jo Wood dissolved subsequently.
It was a terribly public end to what had been viewed as one of the few defiantly solid relationships in rock music. Wood had devoted herself to maintaining the marriage; beyond keeping Ronnie healthy and sober and raising their children, she'd toured with the Stones, converted the other band members to organic diets ("I turned up for a European tour with a suitcase full of potatoes from my garden. Made the chef cook them all") befriended the other wives and diverted the groupies' attentions by befriending them too. "It was hard," she says now. "You had to be strong. I was; I still am."
Jo Wood responded to Ronnie's departure with what appeared to be awe-inspiring stoicism. She didn't fall apart, she didn't spit retaliatory bile in the press, she didn't even retreat to lick her wounds. Instead, she got dressed up and she went out. "I thought: 'Your family are all here and they love their mum. And you really are very lucky. So: let's go, Jo!'" Wood became a fixture on London's party scene. Openings, premieres, launches: "To this function and that, which I hadn't really done before because we never went out. And I made all these friends! All these new friends! [Among them Kate Moss.] I was pushed into being a single girl. I wouldn't have chosen it. But when it happened, I thought: 'Oh! This isn't so bad after all!' And I was off. I was out every night."
Is it fair to say that the split was a liberation?
"Um, yes, because all I concentrated on, it was all about Ronnie. I wanted to do everything to look after him. And now – it's me! Just me!" She speaks with some relish. "And I think: 'Oh, what am I going to wear tonight?' I did go and do a few therapies. I think I went four times. And they said: concentrate on yourself. And once you get the hang of that, realise yes, it really is about you now… I mean, I was heartbroken. But truly, it didn't take me that long to… I can't say to get over it, not completely. But I did start finding my way out of it quite quickly."
How quickly?
She looks a little gleeful, a little naughty, and whispers: "Two months? Ha ha!" But that's as defiant as she gets. Generally Wood invokes her ex-husband's name comfortably, and with no evidence of rancour, regret or sadness – or anything, really, other than distant fondness.
But never mind the divorce. The thing Jo Wood really wants to talk about is Mrs Paisley's Lashings, the pop-up restaurant which first ran for a fortnight this summer, and will be halfway through its December run, by the time you read this. It's the latest evolution in Wood's gently expanding organic brand. In 2003 Wood launched Jo Wood Organic, a range of skincare products which flourished (and continues to flourish) commercially and compounded Wood's desire to reinvent organic sensibilities as glamorous and decadent and a little bit rock'n'roll. Mrs Paisley's Lashings was founded along precisely those principles. It was conceived on a beach in Kenya as a way to spread the organic-food message to an influential group of people, to feed them the idea, literally – and also as a way to have some fun. "Jack [Macdonald, Wood's son-in-law, husband to Leah and father of Maggie] told me about pop-ups, in Kenya. I said: 'Pop-up club? What's a pop-up club?' He said: 'It's only there for six months. That's how Jay Jopling started. With his galleries, and the latest thing is pop-up restaurants.' So I said: 'Pop-up restaurants! Fantastic!' Didn't I, Jack? In Kenya?"
"Yeah," says Macdonald, who is sitting on the floor, listening intently and chipping in when he thinks Wood's going too far off-message. He is a TV producer, but also a foodie with an enormous passion for the restaurant. He added the Lashings bit to the name. "Mrs Paisley, because it sounds Victorian. And lashings, like lashings of lemonade, but also: Lashings, you naughty, naughty boy!"
"Double meaning," says Wood, happily.
"So," continues Wood, "one of those little lightbulbs went off in my head, like: 'Aha!' I thought: 'Fantastic! I have such a big house, and this huge vegetable garden, and I love to entertain. This house rocks when it's full!' I could see it all. These great dinners! But they all went: 'I don't know, Jo…' especially my eldest son, Jamie. He's a real cynic. But, oh! I was going to do it, no matter what!" She claps her hands twice.
Once Wood had got her children behind her, she signed up chef Arthur Potts Dawson, who – quite apart from being Mick Jagger's nephew – is also the restaurateur behind organic destination Acorn House ("He was my first choice. I rang him up; he loved the idea"), planted a load of vegetables and herbs in anticipation of feeding hundreds of people – and began planning what she now refers to as: "Mrs P, round one, ding ding!"
The first incarnation of Mrs Paisley's Lashings ran through Wimbledon fortnight in June 2009 and was enormously successful. They'd planned to seat 30 people a night, maximum, and ended up with 48. Many more people applied for reservations, but Mrs P's was at capacity.
"And some nights it was just a bit of a decadent piss-up," says Macdonald. "But others, it was exactly what we'd hoped: a group of influential people in a room eating food that had been buried in the soil in Jo's garden half an hour earlier – and loving it."
It was intense and manic. Celebrities came: Mark Ronson, Noel Fielding from The Mighty Boosh… "The Spandau Ballet boys. What's his name? I'm terrible with names. Gary Kemp!"
"And at least three tables a night of public who applied," says Wood. "Every evening I'd go round the tables and say: 'Is everything all right?' Like a proper hostess! Ha ha! And this one woman said: 'My mum's come down from up north, and this is a special present I'm doing for her. And she's just blown away.' And I got a lump in my throat. Jamie, who's a bit sort of: 'I don't know what you're doing, Mum, you're so mad' – he said: 'They're going to nick everything!' And do you know: not one glass or cup was broken. Not one."
At the end of the fortnight, Mrs Paisley's Lashings turned a small profit, which Wood donated to the Soil Association.
"And now it's time for round two."
How will things be different this time?
"Well," says Wood, "I learned how not to drink too much every night. Organic booze might be organic, but it still gets you drunk."
Wood says her mission is evolving. This time all profits will go to an initiative called Mrs Paisley's Gardens, which will fund mini-allotments for inner-city schools. They're already in the process of setting one up within a north London primary school.
I wonder if she has any political ambitions. "No! Oh no. I wouldn't remember what to say! Mind you, I met Boris [Johnson] the other day. I said to him: 'Here, Boris! If you need anything eco, I'm your girl!'"
How did he respond?
"Oh: 'Rwah rwah rwah rwah rwah"," she says.
Mrs Paisley's Lashings is clearly, in part, a consequence of Jo Wood's programme of reinvention. Post-divorce, Wood is rebuilding herself project by project. We meet less than a month after she was voted off BBC1's Strictly Come Dancing contest. "It was the most scary thing I have ever done in my life. I loved it! But the nerves! I just couldn't dance, that was the problem! I kept thinking: I'm going to wake up tomorrow, and I'm going to be able to do it fabulously. But it didn't happen."
But whatever sub-agendas Wood entertains in reopening Mrs Paisley's Lashings, whatever healing benefits she sustains, are merely a bonus. Mrs P's is a nice, uncynical idea realised in a beautiful venue; its heart is in the right place. It may be prohibitively exclusive (Jack Macdonald explains that, in his mind, not getting in is half the point, because a great pop-up restaurant should be "the best restaurant you never got to eat in"), and celebrity-orientated – but it's certainly not a mindless, dilettantish or lazy venture.
Macdonald walks us round the parts of Holmwood House that will serve as dining rooms for Mrs P's; he shows us where the tables will be, and the bar; and points out the spot (just inside the front door, at the bottom of a sweeping staircase) where a Victorian mannequin will stand. "We change her outfit every night – she is Mrs P."
Arthur Potts Dawson arrives, and starts talking Wood and Macdonald through his menu ideas. Wood changes into an emerald green sequined cocktail dress and wellies and poses in her vegetable garden for the photographs.
I get the feeling Jo Wood's just getting started; she thinks I'm probably right.
"There's definitely more to come."
Will there be a Mrs P, round three?
"We'd like to. Another one in spring, I 'spose."
Potts Dawson adds: "Because we've done summer, we're doing winter; so yes, let's do another one in spring… See what happens after that."
Would they ever want to do it full-time?
"Oh, I can't imagine me being a restaurateur," says Wood. "But I wouldn't mind Mrs P's being a permanent thing."
"A little 30-cover restaurant somewhere cute in London," says Potts Dawson. "And we were thinking about doing afternoon teas…"
Wood produces a cake stand fashioned from four beautiful plates separated by gold-painted espresso mugs.
"We could serve sandwiches and cakes on it. Isn't that nice?"
"That is so Mrs P," says Potts Dawson.
"Oh, yes! So Mrs P!" says Wood. She laughs her Barbara Windsor laugh.
There aren't any limits for Mrs P, are there?
"No! Gosh no!" Wood says. "There's no limit to Mrs Paisley! No limit at all."
She laughs again. Wood laughs a lot, it must be said.
"You never know. There might even be a Mr Paisley round the corner." OFM


text: SHANGHAI, May 31, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- WuXi PharmaTech (NYSE: WX) today announced that its toxicology facility in Suzhou had received a statement of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) from the Belgium Scientific Institute of Public Health after successfully passing two GLP inspections conducted by the Belgium GLP Monitorate. Good Laboratory Practice is a quality system concerned with the organizational processes and conditions under which health safety studies are planned, performed, monitored, recorded, archived, and reported. The receipt of this GLP statement is an important acknowledgement by a full OECD/EC member monitoring authority about the capability of the Suzhou facility to carry out toxicology and mutagenicity studies and analytical and clinical chemistry testing with respect to OECD and EC principles of GLP. Award of the statement resulted from a four-day inspection conducted by a team of four inspectors from the Belgian national GLP compliance monitoring authority in March 2012. In addition to an extensive facility assessment, the inspection included an audit of 16 studies in areas that included general toxicology, genetic toxicology, safety pharmacology, dermal irritation, skin phototoxicity, and immunology. The facility inspection evaluated key operational sites, including the vivarium rooms, pharmacy, central archive, and laboratories relating to analytical chemistry, bioanalytical services, toxicokinetics, clinical pathology, histopathology, and immunology. The facility successfully passed an earlier inspection in 2010. In November 2010, WuXi announced that it had received a certificate of Good Laboratory Practice from China's State Food and Drug Administration for the Suzhou toxicology facility. "WuXi's receipt of this statement is further acknowledgment that we offer our pharmaceutical and biotech clients toxicology studies that meet international GLP quality standards," said Dr. Ge Li, chairman and CEO of WuXi PharmaTech. "With this award, WuXi moves a step closer to achieving its goal of offering our clients a comprehensive, fully integrated platform of pharmaceutical R&D services." About WuXi PharmaTech

|William Henry Vanderbilt
William Kissam Vanderbilt (December 12, 1849 – July 22, 1920[1]) was a member of the prominent American Vanderbilt family and a horse breeder.
The second son of William Henry Vanderbilt, from whom he inherited $55 million, he was for a time active in the management of the family railroads, though not much after 1903. His sons, William Kissam Vanderbilt II (1878–1944) and Harold Stirling Vanderbilt (1884–1970), were the last to be active in the railroads, the latter losing a proxy battle for the New York Central Railroad in the 1950s.
Vanderbilt's first wife was Alva Erskine Smith (1853–1933), whom he married on April 20, 1875. Born in 1853 to a slave-owning Alabama family, she was the mother of his children and was instrumental in forcing their daughter Consuelo (1877–1964) to marry the 9th Duke of Marlborough in 1895. Not long after this, the Vanderbilts divorced and Alva married Oliver Hazard Perry Belmont.
In 1903, Vanderbilt married Anne Harriman, daughter of banker Oliver Harriman. She was a widow to sportsman Samuel Stevens Sands and to Lewis Morris Rutherfurd, Jr., son of the astronomer Lewis Morris Rutherfurd. Her second husband died in Switzerland in 1901. She had two sons by her first marriage and two daughters by her second marriage. She had no children by Vanderbilt.
After the death of his brother, Cornelius Vanderbilt II, in 1899, Vanderbilt was generally regarded as head of the Vanderbilt family.
Like other Vanderbilts, he built magnificent houses. His homes included Idle Hour (1900) on Long Island and Marble House (1892), designed by Richard Morris Hunt, in Newport, Rhode Island. Hunt also designed Vanderbilt's 660 Fifth Avenue mansion (1883).
Vanderbilt was a co-owner of the yacht Defender, which won the 1895 America's Cup. Vanderbilt was a founder and president of the New Theatre.
Thoroughbred horse racing
Vanderbilt was one of the founders of The Jockey Club. He was a shareholder and president of the Sheepshead Bay Race Track in Brooklyn, New York and the owner of a successful racing stable.
In 1896, he built the American Horse Exchange at 50th Street (Manhattan) and Broadway. In 1911 he was leased it (and eventually sold it to) the Shubert Organization who then transformed it into the Winter Garden Theatre.[2]
After his divorce from Alva, he moved to France where he built a château and established the Haras du Quesnay horse racing stable and breeding farm near Deauville in France's famous horse region of Lower Normandy. Among the horses he owned was the U.S. Racing Hall of Fame filly Maskette, purchased from Castleton Farm in Lexington, Kentucky for broodmare services at his French breeding farm.

chapter ixMature
Inside the condo, he threw the books onto the island in the kitchen and dropped the small baggie from Trevor next to them. Closer to the sink, he set down the bag of gadgets. For his own comfort, he stripped out of his dirty clothes and took a brief shower.
Illuminated blue numbers dictated his every step. Nothing broke his concentration, nothing interrupted the mechanical rhythm he'd created to keep himself aware.
If he were judging by the last time, he had almost three hours to go. It would still be cutting it close, he thought, but what choice did he really have?
In the kitchen, he laid out the emergency supplies he kept in the cabinet in the bathroom: gauze, medical tape, a scalpel, a needle and some stitching thread, rubbing alcohol, and a bottle of bourbon. He cracked open the sub-dermal tracking device and poured over the information pamphlet. It seemed simple enough, and after a few swigs of bourbon right from the bottle, he felt more prepared. He tore into the plastic absurdities that qualified as packaging and read the necessary documents before gathering it all up in a garbage bag.
Still, he had one more thing he wanted to do, before he began.
Graeme was no novice when it came to recreational drugs, but it had been a long time since he'd gotten any speed and, like anyone that had stepped outside of heavy drug use and was suddenly leering back in through the doorway, he was hesitant to go over-board. He wanted to stay awake longer, to maintain his consciousness beyond his previously established limits, not lose his mind.
With care, he shook a little out onto the counter and formed a few lines.
It's like tearing off a band-aid, he told himself, and took the first hit.
Outside, he attached the vehicle tracker to the underside of his front bumper, tucked back as far as he could get it. Once he'd taken out the trash and cleaned up as much evidence of his scheming as he could, he synced his new devices with his laptop and began hiding things in his condo. Already, his muscles vibrated with energy. Bolting from one room to another, his eyes sought out the best hiding places and calculated the likelihood that they would serve their purpose in seconds. Only when he was certain that the high was fully kicking in did he return to the kitchen.
With cotton balls, he swabbed clean a hard-to-see part of his upper arm, a few inches over the elbow, nearly in the middle of his tricep; then, he sliced into his flesh with the scalpel, making sure to dig into the muscle beneath. Blood pooled over the wound and dripped down off his elbow into the sink. GPS tracker clasped firmly between his fingers, he grit his teeth against the foreignness of a strange object moving through his body and slipped the pill-sized device into the fresh wound.
There was no pain. He only felt discomfort, and stiffness, and the dull aches of fading wounds. He took a few more swigs of bourbon and prepared himself for the back-up GPS device.

Song of Aid
Dave's ears were caressed by the gentle sweet tone,
And a beautiful glow, around the lady, did shone.
He wondered what sort of magic she held,
For her song and her music strongly compelled.
The woman, she spoke and Dave was entranced.
Down the small path, he slowly advanced.
"My child, trouble's nigh; you have a great task.
There is a great feat, of you I must ask.
"The war, it is rising; of this, there's no doubt.
The Molemullions shall fail if your help is without.
There is only one way that victory is yours:
It requires your bravery and t'is a great chore.
"To surpass the evil Leprechaun kind,
and bring down the King: The Rings you must find!
You hold in your hand, one of the six.
But just one will accomplish little but tricks.
"You need all of the rings, together once more.
And now comes the importance of this furry great door.
It will bring you to lands far from this place.
You must seek out the one with the warm, gentle face.
"He possesses a Ring and will give it to you.
His want is to help you, this is certain and true.
From there, he will tell you which way you must go;
The path to the second Ring, he will easily show.
"Please take heed of what I have said,
or your race of Molemullions will surely be dead.
Go now, and swiftly, through that great door.
I will certainly see you on your journey once more."
Dave was in shock but still feeling quite easy.
Her beautiful song had made him all breezy.
He wondered if he should do what she said,
And if, through that door, he really should tread?

I'd like to say that I agree with the observations of John Shindlebower in his article, "We've destroyed innocence." This is unusual for me because ideologically, we are at opposite ends of the political spectrum but it is also unusual that the column doesn't appear to contain any political content. So I wish to give Mr. Shindlebower kudos for his well-crafted and thoughtful piece and offer something of my own.

Infographic: The Fresh Face of 2013 - Non-Surgical Options for a Brand New You!
posted on
The Fresh Face of 2013 - Non-Surgical Options for a Brand New You!
Your face is capable of producing over 5,000 facial expressions! With new advances in non-surgical procedures, you now have one more reason to smile.
In 2011, 12.2 MILLION minimally invasive cosmetic procedures were performed in the US. 95% of these were performed on the face.
As we age...
- Zits, bumps and redness — sadly, they don't disappear with high school graduation. 50% of women in their twenties suffer from acne
- Since the skin is so delicate, by the time women are in their 30s they begin to experience undereye bags.
- Most sun damage to our skin occurs before our 20, but the effects manifest into sunspots by our 40s
- Small muscle contractions over a lifetime can result in crow's feet and laugh lines in our 50s
- Sun damage - Can cause the skin to lose elasticity, develop cancerous and noncancerous growths, change pigment, and thicken.
- Smoking - Nicotine causes narrowing of the blood vessels, reducing blood circulation and nutrients to your skin, and the smoke can cause dullness and dehydration.
- Sugar - Weakens the good collagen in your skin, leaving it less supple and more vulnerable to sun damage.
- Sleeping with Makeup - Wash up before you drift o! Makeup can combine with skin oil overnight to produce clogged pores and oxygen-starved skin.
- It's too late to start using sunscreen.
- FICTION: It's never too late to protect your skin from the sun. Skin can also repair itself, given the opportunity, but it can take several years.
- You are what you eat.
- FACT: Your skin will thank your for having a healthy and well balanced diet. Yellow and green vegetables and food containing vitamin C keep your skin younger-looking.
- Free radicals cause wrinkling.
- FACT: Toxins and pollutants in the air damage your skin cells during oxidation making it difficult for the body to produce new healthy skin cells
- You can shrink your pores.
- FICTION: The size of your pores is determined by genetics. They can often look overly enlarged due to keratin or bacteria.
Reverse damaging effects of aging with minimally invasive cosmetic procedures
- Wrinkles smooth over and frown lines relax with the help of these noninvasive injections.
- This treatment uses a specific combination of advanced chemicals to slough off the rough, dull top layer of skin, leaving your complexion glowing and baby-smooth.
- Sometimes called "liquid facelifts," these injections add volume to your face and fill in sagging areas.
- The second layer of skin is stimulated with lasers to produce more collagen fibers, smoothing and tightening your cheeks.
- This light treatment eliminates dead skin cells from the epidermis, allowing your skin's inner beauty to shine through.
- Boost your confidence with cost-effective options
- Quick and relatively painless procedures that could be completed over a lunch break
- Short recovery time, with side effects subsiding within two days
- Instant results
3 out of 4 physicians said they treat patients who seek facial procedures to stay competitive in the workplace.
Non-surgical facial procedures are ever-increasing in popularity: 123% increase in total minimally invasive cosmetic procedures from 2000 to 2011
Buyer Beware! Popularity and the economic downturn ushered many non-medical personnel into the arena offering cosmetic treatments like BOTOX®. Beware of ads or promotions that sound too good to be true; they may be!

1,700 gymnasts enjoy the big stage at Milwaukee event
Milwaukee hosts MCA National Gymnastics for first time
Adriana Avila was just a little nervous. It wasn't the massive arena or the pressure or the crowd.
It was the fact that she was suddenly just one of 1,700 pony-tailed gymnasts.
"This is really big," she said with wide eyes.
For the first time in the event's 74-year history, Milwaukee is hosting the YMCA National Gymnastics championships, which conclude Monday at the Frontier Airlines Center.
Gymnasts ranging in age from 5 to 18, with a few even in their 20s, have arrived from California to Maine to compete in the three-day event.
"It's a massive meet," said Leila Wright, the area youth development director. "We have four gyms running all day long for multiple days. For many of our families, this is their first nationals experience."
The 2012 YMCA Nationals feature several levels of competition with 19 states represented. For Avila, the Mequon native who will soon compete for Lake Shore Middle School and eventually Homestead High School, it was a rare opportunity to go against other 12-year-old gymnasts from all over the country in her first nationals.
"I'm kind of nervous because I don't know the competition," Avila said before her events. "Unlike the people in your state because you've already competed against them."
The nationals are a big deal. The event kicked off Friday - named an official Olympic Day Event by the United States Olympic Committee - on the Summerfest grounds, with an estimated 6,000 in attendance. Then on Saturday girls - and a few boys - tumbled and twisted through bars, beam, vault and floor events.
Dominique Wilkerson, 14, was really excited for the national event. She had been to two others - in San Diego and Toledo - but this one allowed her friends and family to attend. The Mequon native and sophomore at Homestead High took a silver in the Pre-Opt division Saturday, including a second place in the beam exercise.
"I had a few wobbles on beam, but they were just balance checks," said Wilkerson. "I just felt really confident. My whole family was here, it was really fun."
While out-of-state gymnasts and their families used this as a vacation to take in Brewers games, Summerfest or museums, local athletes like Jasmine Werner, 12, of Waukesha, just enjoyed home cooking for her first nationals event.
Colleen Avila, Adriana's mom, was one of the many volunteers. Her younger daughter, Maya, medaled in beam and bars. Colleen said she appreciated the YMCA's approach. Having tried club gymnastics, the Avilas found the commitment of 15 hour-a-week practices, year round, pretty intense. With her two daughters and their variety of sports and academic interests, she liked Metro Milwaukee YMCA's gymnastic team because it had practices three times a week and even that is flexible.
"That worked for us," said Colleen Avila.
Adriana did well Sunday, particularly on the bars and in floor exercise. She didn't medal, but that's not the point. She had a great time and gained from the experience. And they're in the sport because their Y allows them to be well-rounded kids.
The Avila girls, already good students, also compete in football, basketball, soccer and softball, cross country, track and diving. . . . "because they can. I had no idea this was even out there," said Colleen. "The Y was such a gift. It is the perfect balance."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Orljava is a river in Slavonia, eastern Croatia, a left tributary of Sava. It is 89 kilometres (55 mi) long and its basin covers an area of 1,494 square kilometres (577 sq mi).[1]
Orljava rises in the mountainous forested areas of Psunj, south of Bučje. It receives influx from smaller rivers that rise in the mountains of Papuk and Požeška gora. Near Srednje Selo it starts turning southeast, and at Pleternica it merges with the river Londža that rises in Krndija. It then runs south to pass between Požeška gora and Dilj, when it turns to the southwest. As it flows south of Dragovci, the river turns south and eventually flows into the river Sava just west of Slavonski Kobaš, at 45°06′24″N 17°43′29″E / 45.106777°N 17.724656°E.

From Santa Fe Indian School...
Giving an on-line hello to people I'm meeting at the campus of the Santa Fe Indian School, where SFIS is hosting a conference. In attendance are 500 people who work primarily with Native children. the conference itself is called Access Native America.
Hello, to Shirley J., and Alana M., and Athena B., folks from Haskell, and all the other Native schools whose personnel have stopped by. I'm enjoying talking with friends I taught with here in 1988 when I taught at SFIS.... An on-line hello, too, to Felisa. Mark. Randy.
My daughter, Liz, is selling her beadwork. I'm hanging out with her, talking up my blog.
It's hot here in Santa Fe, but not humid. As I stepped outside this morning at dawn, I needed long sleeves and a sweater. The air was beautiful. Crisp. That's Nambe Pueblo, in northern New Mexico!
More another day...

Private Lessons
Private lessons are the fastest and most effective method to learn German.
These courses are designed for learners who want to reach a specific goal within a limited period of time. The
length, intentisity, and frequency of the lessons are decided by the learner.
Because many of our instructors at ASL have additional training in areas besides language instruction they are able to
effectively cover a wide range of subjects: business, finance, banking, the
humanities, science, technology, communications, law, medicine, etc.
The course content includes presentation techniques, written communications,
discussion techniques, negoiations, and many other relevant areas of German language learning - areas that are
especially relevant for executives and other business workers.
