CRZEGRL Hosts Change of Shift
CRZEGRL, a venerable blogger and courageous flight nurse, is hosting this week's Change of Shift, the blog carnival of all things nursing. It's certainly worth a perusal, even if you only have time to read one or two entries. Blog carnivals are an amazing phenomenon, in that they are online magazines bursting with content and connections to blogs you might otherwise never find on your own (at least not all at the same time).

OK, this should indicate the number of APPS the DOJ had the first week.
Application mailed -11/4
Application sent back 11/30....Needed additional documentation on my instructors certification. Check was sent back also.
Called DOJ on 12/1..left message.
12/2 recieved call back from Courtney, of DOJ, Crime Information Bureau, a very nice lady who answered all my questions. She went through everything with me on the phone and I mailed everything back on 12/2. She could not have been more helpful. Yes I'll probably have to wait another few days, or weeks but it won't be because the people at DOJ are not doing thier jobs. Hats off to Courtney who is a true professional!!

Maddon Says Rays "Easily" Have Right Attitude To Win
By Dory LeBlanc
Follow @DoryLeBlanc
Rays manager Joe Maddon stopped by the WDAE broadcast booth at Charlotte Sports Park Friday morning and talked about the talent level within the organization.
Because the Rays have brought in the amount of quality ballplayers that they have, it makes trimming the roster down to 25, the requirement for opening day, a tall order.
"Part of our problem is Andrew (Friedman) and the boys did such a wonderful job at bringing in candidates this year," Maddon said. "It's just chock-full of good baseball players, good people, good personalities, so it's making it a lot more difficult."
Maddon said an important component of the team this year is their maturity level.
"We have a lot of young pros here, guys that have been through the playoffs several years, guys that have been to the World Series a couple years ago in 2008," Maddon said. "Easily, I can easily say we have the kind of professional attitude it takes to do this."

Sources within the India Meteorological Department (IMD) claimed that the 3.9 quake struck at around 10.15 pm. The epicenter of the fresh quake was in Sikkim. Though a mild intensity one, the tremors caused panic for the residents in the area. The Director General of Police (DGP), Jasbir Singh said that most people rushed out of their homes to roads and other open areas.
Singh added that following the devastating quake, many homes have suffered cracks that sure cannot withstand any tremor. The latest quake forced people to stay on the roads and the people refused to return to their dilapidated homes.
With the death toll at 117 at the moment, many have been injured in the catastrophe as well. With the rescue and search operation finished, Sikkim had to bear the brunt of flash floods that hit Lachung, located in north Sikkim district near China border. The floods led to more than 100 people being stranded. Evacuation operations are on in the area with the Army dropping food and other essential supplies.

The Interlocking of Right Wing Politics and U.S. Middle East Policy: Solidifying Arab/Muslim Demonization Elaine C. Hagopian Index
PortraitElaine C. Hagopian is Professor Emerita of Sociology, Simmons College, Boston.
PressestimmenThat Arabs and Muslims would be fair game for harassment and persecution by successive U.S. Administrations should come as no surprise given the global projection of U.S. power, the role of Israel in U.S. domestic politics, and the weakness of most post-colonial Muslim societies. Civil Rights in Peril: Targeting Arabs and Muslims is an important contribution to understanding the domestic side effects of the need for a foreign bogeyman after the dissolution of that other "Evil Empire", the Soviet Union. Of course, this also fits in nicely with the agenda of the Israel Uber Alles elements. The essays in this volume help us to understand the matrix of the new American juggernaut and its impact on the lives of ordinary people. Thankfully, it joins a growing body of critical analysis that is connecting the proverbial dots about the new face of American hegemonism. -- Abdeen Jabara, Civil Rights Attorney, Past President, American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee Elaine Hagopian, one of the country's most respected analysts of Middle East affairs, has brought together a group of astute commentators, who give us a refreshingly critical view of the current demonization of Muslims and Arabs. What she and the others make clear is the deadly connection between this phenomenon and U.S. behavior in the Middle East. -- Howard Zinn Since September 11, US media and popular culture have treated Arabs and Muslims as fanatics, terrorists, and suspects; this volume treats them as human beings. All those who want documentation and substantiation of the erosion of civil liberties in this country, should read this book. The forgotten victims of September 11 are the Arabs and Muslims in the US, whose rights have been curtailed, and activities monitored, and charities closed down or suppressed. This volume tells their story. The volume is an excellent contribution to the ignored facets of US wars on terrorism; those wars are also fought in US cities and towns, mostly targeting Arabs and Muslims. This is a much needed study of the status of Arabs/Muslim in the US in the wake of September 11, and its subsequent suppression of civil rights and liberties, especially among Arabs and Muslims. -- As'ad AbuKhalil, Dept. of Politics, California State University

There was a time when Warren Feeney would have liked nothing better than a place in the stands at Windsor Park, but now the Luton striker, who spent his childhood supporting his national side from the terraces, is determined to earn a place on the pitch.
Having played the last six minutes of Saturday's 0-0 draw in Denmark, the 25-year-old is desperate for a further taste of action against Latvia on Wednesday in Belfast. "I am selfish and want to be in the team," he said. "But all I can do is make sure I am ready if called upon. If I do get the nod, I can promise I will give it my best shot."
There is special pressure on Feeney to win a place in the national side, as he is the third generation of his family to win a cap for Northern Ireland - although with 11 caps he is already the most successful, and is the first to feature in a competitive match. His grandfather Jimmy won two caps, against Scotland in 1947 and England three years later, while his father, Warren Snr, featured against Israel in 1976.
"I used to go and support the team in home games when I was a kid. Being a striker, I used to enjoy watching big Jimmy Quinn and how he played. I would definitely still be out there cheering the boys on if I was not involved with the team. Mind you when I was standing in the crowd, there was plenty of room. Now tickets are like gold dust because of our improvement. Windsor is a special place. It has an intimidating atmosphere and lots of teams don't like it."
There is evidence to support that claim, with Spain having been beaten in their last home qualifier and England famously defeated last year. The point in Denmark has further boosted team morale, although their defeat by Iceland in their first game in Group F remains a strong and painful memory.
"Perhaps that result was a blessing in disguise because we know we cannot give a repeat performance," he said. "We have the confidence to get a victory but we cannot afford to be the bit least complacent. We must make sure we are on our game if we are to get a good result because Latvia are a decent side."
Feeney is yet to score a league goal for Luton this season, but his importance to Lawrie Sanchez's side increased yesterday when the Hull striker Stuart Elliott returned to his club after being ruled out of Wednesday's match with a stomach problem. Ivan Sproule of Hibernian has been called up as his replacement.

"Following 10 days of Hamas attacks by land, air and sea, and after repeated rejections of offers to de-escalate the situation, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has initiated a ground operation within the Gaza Strip," Xinhua quoted the IDF as saying in a statement.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Moshe Ya'alon instructed the military to embark on the ground operation late Thursday, the Prime Minister's Office said.
The operation aims to "damage the underground tunnel terrors constructed in Gaza leading into Israeli territory ... such a tunnel was used earlier this morning by Hamas terrorists to enter Israeli territory, with intent to case massive harm to Israeli civilians."
Meanwhile, Israeli helicopter gunships were seen hovering over the northern Gaza Strip, where thousands of Palestinians had been warned by the IDF to stay in shelters or any protected areas, media reports here said.
The ground incursion aims to "establish a reality in which Israeli residents can live in safety and security without continued indiscriminate terror, while striking a significant blow to Hamas' terror infrastructure," the IDF statement said.
The operation is led by the IDF's Southern Command with close coordination between IDF units including infantry, armoured corps, engineer corps, artillery, and intelligence combined with aerial and naval support, the statement said.
Earlier Thursday, the IDF thwarted an attempted infiltration by Hamas militants through a tunnel under the Gaza border. The tunnel was quickly destroyed by the Israeli air force.
Hamas said all its 13 members in the tunnel had safely evacuated.

Reports claim that analysis of the company's books show that £427m is unaccounted for. The cash - which formed a loan from former owner BMW - would be enough to plug the shortfall in the Rover pension fund.
It could also be used to give its 6,000 workers redundancy payments of more than £65,000 each.
The revelation brought calls for an urgent investigation by the Department of Trade and Industry. The analysis, by academics at Warwick University, shows the firm has come into £1.3bn in the last five years - £427m from the loan and a further £900m from car sales.
The company, which is owned by the four-strong Phoenix consortium, has recorded losses of £900m, which appears to leave some £400m unaccounted for. The apparent shortfall comes as the four businessmen who bought Rover for £10 in May 2000 look forward to a £40m windfall on their retirement.
Motor industry analyst Nick Matthews, principal fellow at the Warwick Manufacturing Group, said the Department of Trade and Industry should launch an inquiry into what has happened, as the company's tortuous accounting structure made it impossible to get an accurate picture of MG Rover's financial health.
'We have reviewed this analysis. It is very rigorous. It suggests to me the need for an urgent and thorough DTI investigation,' Matthews said.
Executives at MG Rover and its parent company, Phoenix Venture Holdings, said that Rover's accounts had been fully audited by the accountants Deloitte Touche and that the company stood by its published figures.
SPECIAL REPORT: Read our full round-up of the collapse of MG Rover
There have been allegations that the Phoenix executives have made personal fortunes despite Rover hitting trouble. The executives have consistently rejected this charge, arguing that the company's structure was a legitimate step designed to give the car company the best opportunity to survive in a highly competitive market.
Workers at Rover were sent home on full pay at the beginning of the week as hopes of a deal with Chinese car maker the Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation faded.
The Government is still hoping the Chinese can be persuaded to buy MG Rover but SAIC has said it is 'highly unlikely' it would be interested in the firm when it is in administration. Rover workers also face the threat of having to pay thousands of pounds for cars they leased from the company.
The Longbridge workers were encouraged to lease cars with the help of a loan from a bank or from MG Rover to prop up sales figures, claimed Julie Kirkbride, who is standing for re-election as Tory MP for Bromsgrove. After 10,000 miles or a year, the car would be returned and replaced by a new car, and a new loan, with Rover settling any outstanding finance.
Kirkbride said workers may now be liable for this finance when they sell their Rover. 'Not only do they now face losing their jobs, but being thousands of pounds in debt on top,' she said. 'It adds insult to injury.'Reuse content

Oily Salmon Series Game One: A Lesson in PrioritiesNovember 15, 2008
The inaugural game in our series was scheduled for Sunday, Dec. 16, 2001. There was one minor problem: I was in my first semester of law school and had my Civil Procedure midyear exam scheduled for the very next day. Like many first-year law students, I was scared to death that I was about to fail out of school.
I later discovered that, throughout my academic career, I had always been a late-term learner, never feeling completely comfortable with the material until I walked into the exam (if then). So, obviously, the best way to prepare for my Civil Procedure exam was to skip town for the weekend and go to a Seahawks game. Who needs to study when you got football, right?
The terminally mediocre Seahawks came into the game with a 6-6 record, while the struggling Cowboys, with Quincy Carter playing quarterback, were limping along at 4-8. This game was very devoid of drama compared to our four subsequent Cowboys-Seahawks games.
The big highlight of the game itself was seeing the excitement in the eyes of my brother, who was attending his first Cowboys game in person. It was like watching a little kid on Christmas. I knew and recognized the feeling because I had experienced the same excitement the season before when I watched the Seahawks for the first time in person.
However, the drama behind the first of the Oily Salmon Series was not yet complete. There was still that pesky little Civ.Pro. exam to deal with. Even making it back to San Jose proved adventurous. A certain Seahawk was in the middle of a four-game suspension for performance enhancing drugs and was thus unable to play against the Cowboys that day. But that didn't stop me from meeting him.
As I was waiting to board my plane, I looked over at the line forming and seemed to see a familiar face. Only after the gate person informed him that he was attempting to board the wrong plane (he had partaken of a few too many adult beverages), did I realize that Shawn Springs was trying to follow me back to San Jose.
As for the exam, I won't bore you with the details. I weighed football in one hand and my legal career in the other. I chose football. I studied on the plane and hoped for the best...and apparently I was sufficiently prepared.

#AztecWBB Overpowers Fresno State, 74-49
Feb. 9, 2013
FRESNO, Calif. - | Final Stats in PDF Format
The San Diego State women's basketball team won its eighth straight game and took over sole possession of first place in the Mountain West with a convincing 74-49 victory over Fresno State in a battle of conference co-leaders Saturday at Save Mart Center.
The Aztecs (17-5, 8-1 MW) had four players supply 72 of their 74 points, led by senior Courtney Clements (Long Beach, Calif.), who tossed in a game-high 20 points, including four 3-point baskets, while classmates Malia Nahinu (Hayward, Calif.) and Chelsea Hopkins (Las Vegas, Nev.) completed double-doubles. Nahinu tallied a collegiate-best 18 points and pulled down 11 rebounds, tying for game-high honors in that category with Hopkins, who scored 17 points and dished out seven assists. Not to be outdone, sophomore Erimma Amarikwa (Vacaville, Calif.) finished with a career-high 17 points of her own on 8-of-11 shooting and grabbed seven boards.
As a team, SDSU shot 51.7 percent from the field (31-60) and owned a 46-31 advantage in rebounds, including a decisive 31-14 margin on the defensive glass, to help snap the Bulldogs' (15-7, 7-2 MW) 20-game home winning streak. In addition, the Aztecs dominated the paint by a sizeable 46-26 margin and outscored Fresno State 19-11 off turnovers.
Ki-Ki Moore and Rosie Moult posted 15 points and seven rebounds apiece to lead the Bulldogs. However, the host school was limited to a 32.3 field goal percentage (20-62) for the contest and sank just 4 of 14 free throws.
Alex Sheedy hit a jumper in the opening minute to give Fresno State its only lead of the game, but two Hopkins 3-pointers served as bookends to a quick 14-2 run that put SDSU in front for good by the 15:50 mark. The Bulldogs closed to within 16-11 following a triple by Moult with14:46 to go. However, the Aztecs answered with eight straight points, capped by a Nahinu basket, to take firm control. Then with the half winding down, a Clements shot found the bottom of the net to give SDSU a 42-26 cushion at the break.
The Aztecs kept firing on all cylinders after intermission, eventually taking their biggest lead of the evening at 70-40 on a Nahinu layup with seven minutes remaining. Fresno State reeled off nine straight points, punctuated by two Robin Draper free throws with 2:27 to go, but could draw no closer, as a pair of Nahinu buckets down the stretch fittingly closed out the scoring.
For the second straight game, SDSU totaled nine blocks, with Clements and Nahinu finishing with three rejections apiece.
The Aztecs will open a two-game homestand beginning Wednesday, Feb. 13, when Colorado State pays a visit to Viejas Arena. Opening tip is slated for 7 p.m. PT.

Here is Bobbie's own delicate rendering of perhaps her best known song. Lost in the BBC archives since 1968, and looking and sounding just as good as the day when this version was first laid down.

The Boeing 777-200LR making its airshow debut here this week is to be fitted with AeroMobile mobile cellular technology later this year. The 777-200LR here is the second prototype and is being used primarily for interior certification. AeroMobile, the result of a partnership formed by Arinc and Telenor, is designed to leverage Inmarsat's "classic" Aero-H, -H+ and -I satellite communications services currently available.
"Airlines using classic Inmarsat satcom equipment can offer cellular services to today's passengers at minimal cost," said Graham Lake, Arinc managing director Europe, the Middle East and Africa. "And they can upgrade the service as future advanced Inmarsat connectivity becomes available. AeroMobile is the lowest-cost, lowest-risk and highest-return solution available for in-flight mobile, and the only proven technology flying today that offers airlines an economical future-proof solution."

Marquez on pole in Australia, Lorenzo third
By Ian Ransom
MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Outgoing champion Marc Marquez swept to his eighth pole position of the season at the Australian MotoGP on Saturday, as Jorge Lorenzo took a front-row position to keep the pressure on title leader Valentino Rossi.
Marquez, already eliminated from the championship race, topped the timeseheets with a scorching lap of one minute 28.364 seconds around Phillip Island's bucolic seaside circuit on a day of brilliant sunshine.
The Honda rider's best was more than three-tenths of a second quicker than Ducati's Andrea Iannone and Yamaha rider Lorenzo, who posted matching times in their final flying laps.
Rossi, 18 points ahead of team mate Lorenzo, his only challenger with three races left, will start a disappointing seventh on the grid, having failed to capitalize on perfect conditions after emerging from his garage late in the session.
Honda's Dani Pedrosa heads the second row alongside fifth fastest Briton Cal Crutchlow and sixth fastest Suzuki rider Maverick Vinales.
Wily Italian Rossi is chasing a record-equalling eighth premier class crown and will trust in his race smarts to secure enough points on Sunday to maintain a solid lead ahead of the penultimate stop at Malaysia next week.
Two-time champion Lorenzo, however, was fuming after the session after Iannone rode in his slipstream to match his best lap and sandwiched his Ducati between Marquez and the Yamaha rider on the front row.
"This time Andrea benefited a lot from my wheel," said Lorenzo. "I did my best." Continued...

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - September 24, 2000, New Braunfels, Texas New Water Restrictions ■ New Braunfels Utilities customers with addresses ending in 5. 6, 7, 8 or 9 can water today before 9 a.m. and after 7 p.m. For information, call 608-8925 AHeRALD-Ze I I U1 4G * ...... - Vol. 149, No. 234 42 pages in 4 sections September 24> 2OOO Sunday Serving Comal County since 1852 $1.00 By Jo Lee Ferguson Staff Writer A proposal to designate as parkland city-owned property leased by two local organizations worries the Wurstfest Association. Councilwoman Debbie Flume placed an item on Monday's council meeting agenda to "discuss and consider designating city owned properties (including the Wurstfest Grounds and the Comal County Fair Grounds) as city park space." If the areas were approved as parkland, state law' would prevent the city from disposing of the land, w hether by selling it or trading it, unless the voters approve. "The future of those properties will remain in the hands of the citizens," Flume said. "If the city ever decided to sell the property it would have to be put to a vote of the citizens." Wurstfest 2000 President David Lamon and Comal County Fair Association Vice President Arlon Flermes said Flume did not tell them about the proposal before she put it on Monday's agenda. The council meets at 6:30 p.m. Monday in the New Braunfels Municipal Building, 424 S. Castell Ave. "We were somewhat surprised by it," Lamon said. "I am having a hard time understanding why she wants to do it and w hy now." Hermes said it was too early to respond to the proposal. "We just don't know what the proposal means at this point," he said. Wurstfest's lease on city property next door to Lan-da Park does not expire for another 30 years, Lamon said. The fair association's lease on the land it uses expires in 2036, Hermes said. The proposed park land that would include the area Wurstfest leases spans from [.anda Park Drive between the Comal River and Elizabeth Avenue, to the former M.K. & T Railroad, across the Comal River, and then to the property line between the Lower Colorado River Authority's land and the land leased by Wurstfest., The boundaries include the leased Wurstfest Land, some parks department buildings and the Circle Arts Theatre. The theatre also leases its building from the city.

The Panhandle was the first part of the state to be greeted with cooler temperatures Saturday as the high in Amarillo fell to a chilly 55 degrees in the afternoon. Central and South Texans can expect to see temperatures drop 10 to 15 degrees Sunday evening. The front also brings a 50 percent chance of rain for much of the state. Index Houston boy presumed drowned By Ron Maloney Staff Writer CANYON LAKE — Tragedy struck a Houston family on an outing at Canyon Lake late Saturday morning, apparently claiming the life of a 14-year-old boy. If confirmed, this will be the fourth drowning in Canyon Lake this season. Comal County Sheriff's Corporal Clay Garland said the family was on a pontoon boat out in the lake and the boy was swimming in an area approximately IOO feet deep. An emergency 911 call reporting the incident was received at 11:23 a.m., but according to one witness, the boy already had been under the water about half an hour by then. Another deputy said wind gusts were running 25 mph, blowing up white-capped, foot high waves. James Stovall, a diving instructor with the Trident Diving School of San Antonio was conducting an open water diving class on shore when the incident occurred. "They were waving and screaming. All we knew was they needed help." Stovall and another instructor swam to the boat. "It was pretty choppy," the veteran diver explained. "The boy See DROWNING/5A RON MALONEY/Herald-Zeitung Capt.

Learning - augmented
Lars is Learning
I've previously posted on how we are beginning to move from training as a separate activity from doing, to a model of primarily supporting practice and performance on the job. Ubiquitous Performance Support (UPS) I rather snappily called it. One dramatic example of how this is developing is in the nascent area of Augmented Reality. This clip amply illustrates where this is heading. While
Mobile learning – keep taking the tablets
Lars is Learning
There is growing excitement with a new class of mobile device hitting the streets over the next few months – the electronic tablet. Most of the buzz is about Apple coming out with what's dubbed the "iTablet" that essentially would be a larger screened iPhone or iPod Touch. Some enterprising people have mocked up images of what it could look like: But several other vendors are beating Apple

Minister regrets lack of training - induction matters!
Lars is Learning
Jacqui Smith. former Home Secretary in the UK Government wished she had been better trained for the role. According to the BBC, in an interview with Total Politics magazine:"I hope I did a good job but if I did it was more by luck than by any kind of development of those skills," she adds.There has been criticism of the way in which ministers are parachuted into departments, often without any.
IT training should focus on performance support
Lars is Learning
Charles Jennings great article on "How not to train" has been featured on trainingzone but I recommend you go back to his blog for a fuller version. His point is clear. Systems training delivers little value (negative value according to Jay Cross' comment) when following the traditional model of delivery. Train weeks before go live, provide little intervening support then let them loose once the.

The US says it will tighten travel restrictions on foreigners who visit the country without needing full visas.
About 20 million people from 38 countries enter America each year under the visa waiver programme.
It has come under increased scrutiny since last month's attacks in Paris, with lawmakers expressing concern that militants could get into the US.
Under changes that are be submitted to Congress, all countries in the scheme would be asked to issue "e-passports".
Their registrations would come under greater scrutiny from US agencies, and travellers would also be screened to see if they had travelled to militant-held areas.

China Is Plenty Creative, Just Not in Right Ways
Operating in a country where something as modest as opening a cigar shop can be fraught with difficulty, Chinese entrepreneurs are renowned for being able to find creative solutions to a wide range of everyday problems. But that resourcefulness won't serve China's economy in the long run, according to one veteran China watcher.
What China lacks, argues economist Arthur Kroeber, founder of the research firm Dragonomics, is innovation that can translate to business with the outside world.
"What's sad is the amount of creativity you see in China is phenomenal," Mr. Kroeber says. "But it's not always directed in ways that are ultimately productive." It's one thing to figure out how to fix a car that needs parts no longer available on the market. It's another to create "innovative solutions which are scalable throughout the entire world."

Oosterhous Returns to Work After Two Strokes
Aug. 8, 2013
By Amber Baillie, U.S. Air Force Academy Public Affairs
Every day Lt. Col. Dan Oosterhous is reminded to keep fighting when he glances at the bright green wristband on his right arm that reads: "Tough times don't last, tough people do."
Oosterhous, the men's tennis coach here and only active-duty head coach at the U.S. Air Force Academy, wears the gift from his father everywhere he goes to keep a positive attitude amidst the constant discomfort and uncertainty he continues to experience after suffering two strokes this past spring.
"It's not something you wake up from and are better," Oosterhous said. "It doesn't go away. I have to believe I'm going to get better or else I won't. Instead of worrying about why this happened, I have to push forward."
A 1993 Academy graduate and coach here for the past four years, Oosterhous, 42, was active and healthy until the evening of Feb. 28. Feeling like a 20-year-old again after competing in a match against his Falcon tennis players, Oosterhous said he went to bed that night and woke up feeling dizzy, began vomiting, and felt an intense pain in his neck.
"It took me three tries just to get to the bathroom because I kept falling down," Oosterhous said. "I tried to sleep it off, but that wasn't the right thing to do. I needed medical attention right then."
As his symptoms lingered, Oosterhous said his wife drove him to the emergency room where medics informed he was having a stroke.
"I knew something was definitely wrong, but I had no idea it was a stroke," Oosterhous said. "That wasn't the first thing that came to mind. I'm young, healthy and I just didn't think stroke."
Tests revealed the stroke was triggered by a dissection of an artery. Oosterhous was put on a blood thinner, and for the next two weeks he doubled up on physical and occupational therapy to regain strength through the right side of his body. Little did he know he would relive the horrific ordeal a week later March 21.
"I woke up with the same headache and same pain except it was on the left side this time," Oosterhous said. "I couldn't believe it was happening all over again."
Oosterhous went to the hospital, where his symptoms progressed during the next 20 hours. He was unable to move his fingers or feel the left side of his body.
"Every minute something was fading away, and it was frustrating because I knew from my previous experience how long it was going to take to get things back," Oosterhous said.
"Medics gave me a clot-busting drug but there was nothing they could do to stop the stroke. 'It just had to evolve,' was how they put it."
Throughout the night he had difficulty breathing, speaking and swallowing.
"The upper part of the brain was working fine," Oosterhous said. "The signals that tell my muscles to move couldn't get through my brain stem because a tiny channel was blocking them. Since I'm unable to get the signal to my muscles, my brain has to learn through repetition and effort."
Oosterhous remained in the hospital for four weeks and was unable to drive for two months. Family members, co-workers and players from his team showed their support by visiting him and reading his online blog.
"Journaling has been therapeutic," Oosterhous said. "My journals have grown into longer, more thoughtful, deeper experiences of learning. I've learned how I operate, how I tick, how I go about my daily life and what is important to me. I've been able to spend more time with my three kids this summer than the past four summers I've been here."
Throughout the recovery process, Oosterhous said he's consistently set goals to stay motivated. Two goals he accomplished included coaching his team here during the Mountain West Conference in April and commissioning two seniors from the team during graduation in May.
"In February I had promised them I would do their commissioning," Oosterhous said. "After my stroke I wasn't sure if that was still possible. I decided to keep that as one of my goals to be able to get out of the hospital, be able to walk onto the stage and do the oath of office with them. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be, but I was so glad I could do it. I was in my uniform for the first time again, and it was the neatest thing I've done in my 20-year Air Force career."
Oosterhous said he's been able to apply lessons he learned here as a cadet to surviving two strokes.
"I've learned why we do certain things at the Academy, such as play sports," Oosterhous said. "It's because they teach bigger life lessons. When you get sick and your life is completely changed, 'How do you deal with that?' Being able to have the positive attitude and work ethic to get through this has been nice because I know that if I can handle this, I can handle anything."
Oosterhous is on narcotics and a strong blood thinner to alleviate the pain and prevent him from stroking again -- although another one could occur at any point.
"Doctors don't want to operate because it would be very risky," Oosterhous said. "Pilot training was the hardest year of my life, my four years at the Academy were very difficult, but this is something that is going to be with me for my entire life."
His message to his players: You can choose your attitude.
"You can't choose what happens to you," Oosterhous said. "Hard work doesn't guarantee that you'll win a match or that you're going to be the best on the team but if you have a good attitude, good things will happen."
Oosterhous is walking short distances without a cane. He is swimming. He even took on wheelchair tennis during a clinic in May.
"I still have a long way to go in my recovery and it will take years to get back anywhere close to my pre-stroke levels, but I only know how to keep fighting," he said.
Oosterhous participated in adaptive sports camps this week through the Air Force Wounded Warrior program where he was able to interact with other active-duty members who also became ill or were wounded in combat.
"The goal is for participants to realize they can be active again," Oosterhous said. "The subset of that goal is to pick people for the Warrior Games."
Oosterhous plans to return to work Aug. 8. He plans to begin coaching the men's tennis team again Aug. 23.
"The cadets motivate me, and I think this is the best place in the world to work," Oosterhous said. "I'm around athletics which is a huge part of recovery. The four-year process of bringing kids out of high school and graduating them as officers is really neat to me. My tennis coach here was my biggest role model and that's what I hope I can do for these cadets."
Oosterhous said three weeks from now at 3:00 p.m. he will be ready for his players.
"I want to work and this is the work I love," he said.

Plumming the Depths
Remember that time Lawrence Olivier sharted in his tunic between Acts II and III of the Royal Shakespeare Company's 1968 performance of "Julius Caesar"? Christopher Plummer does. He remembers all kinds of yarns, which he has collected in a jolly good heave-ho of sentences he has titled, In Spite of Myself, and from which he shall be reading choice excerpts tonight inside the hallowed halls of the Coral Gables Congregational Church.
Afterward, he shall don his most flowing of pens to put his Samuel de Champlain upon your newly-purchased copy, costing just 38.62 Canadian dollars, or $29.95 for you borish Americans. Do join him, or he shall summon his most guttural and Biblical of voices to smite you with a plague of locusts issuing from thy shower head.

Jemima Argues with Steph the Vain Engine
The smile on the engine's improbably large face widened as two men in overalls rushed forward carrying large metal buckets, brooms, and what appeared to be enormous powder-puffs, and hurried towards it.
''Hurry up, you two...men,'' said the engine in an imperious female voice, the effect of which was made rather less impressive by its distinctly West-Country accent. ''Yeah, but I'm in a hurry to get to my next... engagement, you know. Hurry, boys.''
Jemima looked at Patricia, as if to say, What's going on here then... but Patricia was looking a little pale and had sat down on a bench on the platform. Jemima stepped forward. She watched the two men, who seemed to be applying blusher to the engine's cheeks.
''What's that stuff then?'' she asked one of the men.
''Brick dust.'' he replied, and was immediately interrupted by the engine.
''Yes, but not just ANY brick dust. MY brick-dust blusher is produced in the highest of high-class salons, in Gay Paree.''
Jemima looked at the two men, both of whom had just raised their eyes heavenwards.
''I don't wanna argue with you, whatever your name is...''
''Stephanie. Pleased to meet you, little girl.'' The engine smiled, showing large, gleaming enamelled teeth, behind her sliding metal lips. Jemima found herself wondering how those worked. Was there a button somewhere in the cab? Was the voice on some kind of mp3 player? Where were the speakers?
''But, even though I have never been to Paris myself, I doubt they would make makeup for... for... steam engines, I mean to say!''
''No, you silly girl.'' Stephanie said, giggling, little puffs of steam rising from her valve gear as she did. ''They do NOT make cosmetics for steam engines. Why would they? I am not a steam engine. I am a locomotive. A Pacific locomotive. I, in fact am one of the finest, most beautiful locomotives in the world. My classification is 4-6-2. Look at my coupling rods, my steam dome, inspect my footplate...oh no, you won't find a finer one anywhere. And as for my whistle...'' she giggled coyly ''It's as clean...as a whistle.''
She turned her eyes away from Jemima, fluttering her eyelashes at the two men.
''Hold 'em still, Steph!'' said one of them. ''We're about to do yer mascara.''
Jemima peered into the other bucket, which appeared to contain soot mixed with engine oil. It certainly smelt like it. As she watched, the men dipped their brooms into the mixture, then swept it up against Stephanie's eyelashes.
This is mad, thought Jemima. It was about to get madder, though. The men went into the station building, and returned, carrying the most enormous mirror Jemima had ever seen. They carefully propped it up between them, while Stephanie did more eyelash fluttering, pouting, and smiling at her own reflection.
''Fine. Beautiful. Now, just buff my buffers and my tender behind and I'm ready to go. Oh. Boys? Where is my engagement today. anyway?''
One of the men exchanged a wink with the other, as he replied:
''Down in Barry, Steph. Wales. Place called Woodham's. You'll love it there... You'll probably want to stay forever.'' He turned away, his shoulders shaking.
''Oh, lovely,'' said Steph. ''Peep Peep, off we go. Goodbye little girl...''
Jemima watched as Steph moved down the track, the two men now sitting in the cab, laughing.
She sat on the bench next to Patricia.
''I wonder what was so funny.'' she said, turning to Patricia. But Patricia did not reply. Patricia had disappeared. In her place sat something which looked very similar to Patricia... at least, from a distance. But it was made of plastic, with a nervous looking plastic smile on its plastic face.
Jemima felt a tingling in her fingers, looked at her hands, and gasped. Her fingers were starting to stiffen and turn bright pink. What was happening to her?

HANOI (Bernama) – Myanmar army arrested 102 foreigners and 20 Myanmar nationals on Tuesday for suspected illegal logging in Kachin state near the Myanmar-Chinese border, Vietnam News Agency (VNA) reported.
Myanmar's Ministry of Defence on Wednesday said the army also seized logging and trailer trucks, stimulant drugs, raw opium and Chinese yuan notes during a three-day operation.
However, the ministry declined to reveal the nationalities of the foreign suspects.
Recent efforts to curb timber smuggling were attributed to Myanmar's success in cutting down illegal timber production.
In April 2014, the country banned exports of timber to keep deforestation in check and boost domestic wood processing industry.
Myanmar's forest coverage fell from 57.9 percent in 1990 to 47.6 per cent in 2005.

Cassandra: Explosive Awakening
I had finally made it back home, even though my day had been rather eventful. First off, my dearest brother had decided that the best way to wake me up was scaring the living daylights right out of me, and then I barked angrily, probably telling him to bugger off. He didn't go anywhere, of course. He smiled kindly at me (though he had a mischievous glint in his eyes), practically mocking me with that crooked smile of his. What made matters worse that he told me that Bonny needed to go for a walk before locking himself in his studio again...for the umpteenth time this week! Because of Daniel and his need to be alone, I've been running around doing errands that he should be doing for the past week. I was 13, barely a teenager, and walking alone on the streets with a poodle and pepper spray for protection wasn't exactly safe in my eyes. But then again, Bonny had a nasty bite...
I had brushed my red hair quickly and grabbed by purse and keys then I was out the door with Bonny. While I was walking, a man bumped into in or more like shoved me out of the way; I yelled at him in rage, but he just ignored me and walked away. My temper was rising since my awakening, but I knew better not to go as far as through a tantrum in public so I took deep, calming breaths before returning to my stroll with Bonny who didn't seem to mind my little outburst very much.
Then someone jumped but...the man who jumped stopped in the air for a moment before making impact with the ground. Then I remembered a car stopping, though I couldn't care less at that moment. My arms went to grab Bonny in a hurry and I sprinted home with my dress flowing behind me; thankfully it wasn't a very short dress.
The moment I was home, and I found myself pacing and staring furiously at my brother's door. He was busy, I knew that, but the scene that had just occurred sent chills down my spine. I wasn't sure what happened to the man who jumped, but I ran away. Hovering in the air wasn't normal!
"Daniel, can you come out here?" My somewhat uneasy voice probably didn't matter to him or he couldn't hear me (Daniel usually had music blasting in his ears when he was painting). Oh, but I didn't care! My heart was beating faster and faster, and something in me-I don't know what-snapped. Actually I snapped my fingers, and I didn't know why I did it, I just did!
And then...BOOM!
There was a hole where my brother's door once was. The door, the doorway, and some of the wall were gone and there was hole and something like ash around the area of the explosion. Explosion? Did my brother's door just explode...?
Daniel was in shock, awe, or whatever expression it was, he was gaping and looked like he was trying to speak and so was I. Finally, my brother spoke, stuttering in amazement or shock, "C-C-Cassandra. W-what just happened?!"
I had no answer for him.
