Sonoma County Supervisor Efren Carrillo will not face a felony charge from his Aug. 20 arrest for trying to break into a woman's bedroom at 3am wearing only his socks and underwear, according to paperwork filed today by prosecutor Cody Hunt of the Napa District Attorney's Office. Instead, he faces a single misdemeanor count of "peeking," which carries a maximum sentence of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
"My client is relieved that Efren Carrillo is finally being brought to justice," says Rosanne Darling, the lawyer for the unidentified victim in the case, "but she is disappointed because… the charge seems inadequate for what she went through that night." Speaking today on the phone, she added that her client was "terrified" and says, "this has changed her life forever." Darling also notes that the rumor of a relationship between Carrillo and her client, romantic or otherwise, is "simply rubbish." They were neighbors, she says, but "barely know each other."
Darling, a prosecutor with the Sonoma County District Attorney's office before leaving this summer for private practice, sounded disappointed with the charges as well, especially after so many delays granted to the prosecutor to allow him to gather evidence to build his case. "There are homicides that are filed quicker than this," she says. "As a former prosecutor, if all you're bringing is a misdemeanor charge, it seems odd that it would take you three full continuances to come to this decision."
The Napa DA's office, which was assigned to the case by the state Attorney General, has a conviction rate of almost 84 percent for felonies in the past three years, and over 90 percent for misdemeanors in the same period. According to statistics from the Grand Jury Foundation, that's among the highest in the state, and near the top of all counties in the Bay Area.
Carrillo does not have to register as a sex offender, despite being found wearing only his underwear and socks at 3am. He will be formally arraigned tomorrow morning.
Little did he know that two Sheriff's deputies on a routine patrol would spot him holding the pellet gun in his left hand and see it as a real AK-47. Little did he know that those deputies would call dispatch to report him as a suspicious person. Little did he know that those deputies would park their car at the intersection of Moorland Avenue and West Robles and take cover behind the doors. Little did he know that they would order him to drop the gun with their own weapons drawn, aimed to kill. Little did he know that as he turned to his right, one of the deputies would fire on him within seconds, later saying that he feared for his life. Little did Andy know that he would die on that sidewalk; the fatal shots entered through the right side of his chest and the other to his right hip, though in the end, he was shot at least seven times, once in the right buttock.
Andy Lopez was 13 years old. He played in the school band. He was popular and well loved at his school, evident in the hundreds of students and teachers that have turned out for daily protests and vigils since the killing happened on Tuesday afternoon at 3:15pm. His death has gained international attention, stirring up not only intense outrage, but a renewed call for a civilian review board, or a statewide watchdog, or some sort of independent contractor to oversee the investigation. As it stands, the Santa Rosa Police Department will conduct the investigation of the Sonoma County Sheriff's Department. Since 2000 in Sonoma County, not once has an officer of the law been charged with wrongdoing when a suspect has ended up dead on the ground. Will this case be any different?
A vigil on Thursday night, at the spot where Andy came to a violent end, drew hundreds. I attended with my nearly nine-month-old daughter wrapped close to me in her baby carrier. I kissed her head often and gave thanks for her warmth against me. We set zinnias and roses cut from our garden on the memorial and looked at photos of the handsome, smiling boy from Cook Middle School. People lit candles and prayed, others simply stared at the altar for hours, trying to make sense of the senseless. Aztec dancers performed on the site and conducted a prayer ritual in Spanish for the safe flight of Andy's soul.
A contingent of middle-school kids—friends and peers of Andy—marched for at least a mile, from Roseland to Moorland, chanting "Justice for Andy" and "Fuck the Police." They arrived at the field, at the memorial, during the prayer, led by a man who said, "Somos todos Andy Lopez" as the smell of ritual incense burned in the air and a guitar strummed softly in the background. I stood amongst them, thinking about how incredibly young they all looked, still children, just like Andy. They held signs and flowers and balloons and stayed long into the cold night, in that field, wondering how this happened, and wondering when it would happen again.
An eighth-grader who attended Cook Middle School in Santa Rosa was fatally shot in South Santa Rosa by Sonoma County Sheriff's deputies Tuesday afternoon after failing to comply with deputies' orders to drop what turned out to be a replica assault rifle, Sheriff's deputies said.
The shooting took place at Moorland and West Robles avenues just after 3pm. Two deputies saw a male subject with what looked like an AK-47-style assault rifle. Deputies say they repeatedly ordered the 13 year-old to drop the gun. When he did not comply, deputies fired several rounds, striking him several times. Unresponsive, the boy was handcuffed before deputies requested emergency medical assistance. He was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics.
The boy was identified in the Press Democrat as 13-year-old Andy Lopez. After he had been shot, deputies discovered the weapon he had been carrying was a replica. He also had a plastic handgun in the waistband of his pants, deputies said. He reportedly lived in the area with his family.
This is the third officer-involved shooting in Sonoma County this year. The investigation will be handled by the Santa Rosa and Petaluma police departments, in addition to the District Attorney's Office.
Officials from the Santa Rosa Police Department did not immediately return calls seeking comment Wednesday morning.
The attorney for the woman involved complained about the delays, suggesting the motivation might be political. Hunt denied the allegations. Carrillo's attorney, Chris Andrian, denied political motivation and said that he's "taking [prosecutors] at face value."
This morning's postponement marks the third time charges have been delayed for the supervisor. Medvigy originally heard the case on July 18, and agreed to an initial postponement to Aug. 30. On Aug. 30, Judge Julie Conger allowed a postponement to today's date, Oct. 11, stating clearly, "I'm expecting a complaint to be filed at that time. No further delays, please."
Carrillo was arrested on July 13 when a woman called 911 twice to report someone outside her home at 3:40am in Santa Rosa. Someone had tried to break into her bedroom window, and Carrillo was arrested in his underwear and socks on suspicion of burglary and prowling. Police at the time said they suspected Carrillo of attempted sexual assault. After posting bail, he reportedly checked himself into an alcohol treatment facility. Carrillo returned to the Board of Supervisors on Aug. 20 to harsh criticism from his fellow board members and the public.

bad machine shops
You dont want me to even get started on this issue.
I have run into this kind of attitude as well, along with the general attitude of trying to rape me on work done and parts etc.
The only recourse Ive found is to let anyone that will listen know just what a bunch of jerks these kinds of shops are and try to help anyone else from being burned by them.
I guess as well that Im a little sensitive to being called stupid by someone that the only reason Im bringing the stuff to have it worked on is that I cant afford to have a lathe, boring bar, or milling machine, etc, in my garage, or I would be doing it myself and probably put the jerk out of business in the process.
I have enjoyed a rep for being able to put together strong reliable Ford engines over the years, even though I dont do it for a living. Being a non Bow Tie wearer, does have its advantages since most people figure if you can work on a brand engine other than a Chevy, that you have the skills to work on any kind, where, if all you know are Chevy engines, your skills are extremely limited.
Last edited by Max Keith; 02-03-2005 at 03:27 PM.
Those guys won't work on anything but Chevys 'cause they are too stupid to realize that engines are all pretty much the same under the valve covers.
I will tease my customers about their choice of engines, no matter what the make is. Heck, the customer expects some kind of conversation about his stuff. But I never denigrate his choice. Besides, I'd get REAL tired working on nothing but Chevys (or Fords, or Mopars, etc.).
My customers find out that I am very accomodating to their particular needs or requirements as long as it doesn't compromise the quality of work. I will not, however, perform machine work that I know will not do as the customer thinks or that will cause damage. The customer is always right as long as he knows what he is talking about. But if he doesn't, I am obligated to help him out.
I didn't realize how fortunate we are in the Charlotte area. We have several reputable machine shops around here that will do about anything you want. I guess its because of all the race teams in the area. Their a little on the expensive side but you get what you pay for, and evidently that is kind of rare.
Exactly Tom, I don't even expect an hour conversation or anything but if the guy knows what you are doing then it may even provide more quality to his customers. Same guy, I asked about angle milling some dart heads .185. His comment was rude and unintellictual. He said "they won't go that far". I told him hendren does it for me all the time. How are they getting away with it?
Then he says, "Welllllll, you can but YOU don't want to because it means hand fitting a bunch of other stuff and YOU wouldn't want to get into it". By assuming the customer is dumb and ingnorant has never gone over well with me. He could of said, sure as long as you know what you are doing and possibily asked more questions to ensure I knew what I was getting into.
Then there are other day's. Hes' the nicest guy you have ever met and willing to bend over just to satistify you every wimm(sp?). I don't get it. But you know, with out customers...It's gonna come around...
It took me almost a year to find a shop with a BHJ block fixture, or anything similar. 16 shops and only three of them knew what I was talking about.
I got out the yellow pages and got addresses. Rode around until I found one with a race car in the parking lot. That's how I found Ewing Machine in Snellville, Ga. Nice, knowledgable people and a very well equipped shop. I've been going there ever since. I pass by 8 places on the 45 minute drive up there. It doesn't bother me a bit because I know I'll get what I ask for every time.
there's something called the Better Business Bureau.. I'm sure none of these places belong... heh
Anyway.... if you're ever in New York, I can point you to the right shop.
Maybe coldknock hit the key point, he may only have GM machining fixtures and doesn't want to mess with a tear down and set up (which you will pay for).
It took alot of ok to bad motors to find the best machine shop. One thing that I say is a plus if the shop does race motors....lead time to do your motor. If the waiting list is long for the size of the shop.....that's probably a good thing.
As Max wrote...."don't get me started", took a SBF short block to a good reputable Chevy race shop...idiot assembled the rods backwards (numbers in)...."I know I'm right they are assembled correct". Yeah right!
So as the others posted, it's his shop, he can do whatever the hell he wants.....but so can you (go elsewhere)
Race engines are built for a specific purpose and are not intended for long street life. The guys who build them are not necessarily up on the latest techniques that are applied to street engines. The clearances and parameters used in race motors are simply not compatible with most street motors.
A guy who knows his stuff on street engines is likely to build a good race engine, but a "race engine specialist" can have trouble building a good street engine that lasts more that a summer.
when machine shops go bad
Very good food for thought Machine Shop Tom.
I have been dealing with one shop for years. And yes the have make a couple of mistakes on my stuff. But because I check every thing I found the mistake. Just because it is from the shop does not mean it is right. People do make mistakes. But those guys fix the mistake and apologized for it. That makes it nice. OOOo by the way going there is fun Two guys own it, one Ford the other Chevy, it can be a Hoot. But if you got a question on an engine you are building they will help in any way. And even understand weird ones like me who build engines for friend's, and tell them what clearances I want. LOL as someone said before Just my 2 cents.....
Tom, and all....
Correction: should have written "performance engine shop".
I do agree, a full race engine shop could be a bad choice for a mild street engine.
The "race engine" shop I use in Tampa does all from 1/4 mile circle track 4 banger, bomber, cars etc. on up to Sebring 12 hour motors for examples.
Re-phrase the point (I screwed up) I was trying to make: The first question I ask any new vendor is lead time to help evaluate him and his quality of work based on the size of the shop.
I ususally give the customer what they want, unless it has the possibility of tarnishing my own reputation, like using junk parts or asking to cut corners.
Some guys know what they are doing, some don't.
From a shop owner's standpoint, you have to look at both sides of the deal.
If a customer does want you to do something that is questionable, who is going to get blamed when the engine fails? Putting engines together, or tuning them is a separate issue from performing machine work, alot of times a cusomer thinks they know what needs to be done, when they really don't.
If a customer wants me to zero deck a block, then I'll do it. If they want me to put a set of heads together with CAT valve locks, I won't do it. If they want me to put cheap Chinese valves in a racing engine, I won't do that either. If the engine fails, the shop is going to get bad-mouthed one way or the other..
If a guy wants me to build a set of AMC or Ford heads, that's fine wiht me, it breaks the boredome of doing one Chevy after another for me.
The work performed has to work both ways for the customer and the shop. If a shop is set up for Chevy stuff, and that's their bread and butter, and they are busy, it's up to the shop owner to decide which jobs to do and which ones not to do. If he's covered up with production style work (same parts, same set-up), he's going to make more money doing the redundant Chevy work.
machine shops
Ah but coldknock, how else would that gallon of milk get from the Supermarket to the fridge in 60 seconds?
Or that gal that you met at the company picnic go from a 0 to a 10 in a 6 pack?
Re: machine shops
As for the gals, I have no further comment.

Evangelical Community Hospital Acquires OB/GYN Associates of Lewisburg
Evangelical Community Hospital's Board of Directors recently announced the acquisition of OB/GYN Associates of Lewisburg. The full ownership transition will be effective July 1, 2014, at which time management of the practice will be under the direction of Evangelical Medical Services Organization (EMSO).
The purchase of the practice brings together OB/GYN Associates' successful history of providing comprehensive women's healthcare and Evangelical's realized vision of convenient, accessible, and affordable health services for women of the local communities.
"Evangelical has long been dedicated to the healthcare needs of women and providing them with options for their care. The addition of OB/GYN Associates to Evangelical marries the Hospital's certified obstetric staff, surgical and obstetric capabilities and facilities, and technological advances, with a thriving practice of experts in the field of gynecology and obstetrics," said Michael O'Keefe, President and CEO of Evangelical Community Hospital. "The ultimate result is skilled services for women seeking professionals they can trust, in the compassionate environment for which Evangelical is known."
Established in 1995, OB/GYN Associates of Lewisburg includes four board-certified physicians, four certified midwives, two certified registered nurse practitioners (CRNP), and a certified physician assistant (PA). These experienced providers offer a wide-range of healthcare services for women of all ages, including obstetrical and prenatal care, high-risk pregnancy, infertility, and all aspects of gynecological care and surgery.
Russell Stankiewicz, MD, FACOG, CCD, NCMP, said, "This purchase agreement with Evangelical is a natural progression for OB/GYN Associates. It allows our well-established practice to continue providing the exceptional care for women it has for nearly two decades and opens the door for expansion and growth in a changing healthcare landscape."
For more information about Evangelical Community Hospital and its family of services, visit www.evanhospital.com.
Evangelical is a non-profit organization that employs approximately 1,460 people and has more than 170 employed and non-employed physicians on staff.

Sir Nogie, our smart Gentlekatz
Yesterday Nudel, Dudel & Strudel were stuffed into the carrier with me and we made a trip to the vet again.
I was worried about my babies getting too upset over this trip, but noooo they did just fine. It must have helped that they did not get pricked with the big, bad syringe for a vaccination or anything.
Mama did not want the fur babies to be vaccinated too early(before the recommended 6 weeks of age), so she volunteered to come back for that some other time.
I, on the other paw, was not so lucky. Nah, I had to turn my skinny tush to the vet, so I could get my Feline Leukemia shot. OUCH!!!
My coughing is much better now, even without having to down yucky medicine. Maybe all the good food and vitamins, Mama gave me, helped a bit.
The vet said that my babies were all looking just fine. I WAS SO PROUD! I think they look more than fine...they are incredibly gorgeous! Yes! B-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l!
Call me biased...I am! MEOW!

text: SAN FRANCISCO, June 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Novo Nordisk, a world leader in diabetes care, announced today that it is now accepting applications for Novo Nordisk Community Care San Francisco, a community-based initiative that supports local programs that educate people living with type 2 diabetes. The sponsorships are part of the Novo Nordisk Community Care program, which aims to promote sustainable change by working with locally based nonprofit groups in cities across the country to help communities most affected address the growing diabetes crisis. Novo Nordisk will invest $80,000 as part of the initiative to support organizations in San Francisco. For more information and to download an application form, interested organizations should visit www.NovoNordisk-US.com. "More than 3.8 million Californians were faced with diabetes in 2010," said Lori Moore, Executive Director of Communications and Public Affairs at Novo Nordisk. "As an industry leader, Novo Nordisk is committed to reversing the trend of the diabetes crisis. We recognize that community-based organizations play a critical role in providing diabetes education and care that can help defeat this disease." In 2011, Novo Nordisk Community Care sponsored more than 20 diverse community-based programs and awarded $415,000 to organizations in Atlanta, Minneapolis, Boston, and Philadelphia. Last year's sponsored programs were selected for their unique content focused on education and resources for patients, ranging from interactive workshops, material for underserved and minority populations, and faith-based community initiatives. This year, Novo Nordisk will offer new sponsorship opportunities to eligible nonprofit organizations dedicated to educating and empowering patients in San Francisco to become more engaged in their health and management of type 2 diabetes. Diabetes has become a global health crisis, and is taking a major toll on our communities, with San Francisco bearing a large part of the burden. A recent model from the Institute for Alternative Futures (IAF), commissioned by Novo Nordisk, estimates that the number of Americans living with diabetes will increase 64% between 2010 and 2025, affecting more than 53 million people. And, in California, it's estimated that the number of people with diabetes will increase 70% between 2010 and 2025, affecting more than 6.5 million people, including more than 700,000 people in San Francisco. This dramatic increase could mean a total of $63.6 billion in total medical and indirect societal costs of diabetes for the state of California in 2025. If not properly managed, diabetes can lead to other serious health issues such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness, amputation, and other complications.

This weekend the better half and I did some window and hands on shopping for a new ccw for her waist. We have a G19 & G26 and neither feel great or comfortable in her hands let alone on her hip. While at the dealer she got her hands on the Khar CW 9mm. She said it felt great. The single stack makes it thinner and less boxy. I went home and did some research and didn't exactly like what I read about the FTFS and FTES and the whole 200 round breaking in period. What's the general consensus about this weapon? For every negitive post I read there are just as many if not more... positives. What other 9mm should I also consider with about the same size and weight characteristics. I see Taurus has a new slim out. We did like that CW!!!
Thanks in advance!

Twitter has created a new genre of comedy that most of us can't quite describe. It's like a combination of satire, current events, pop culture and stream of consciousness, all packaged into 140 characters or less.

Eve of the emperor penguin
by mary pope osborne
Eve of the emperor penguin is a very interesting book. Brother and sister, Jack and Annie go on another mission to help Merlin, the sorcerer of camelot.Jack and Annie go to antarctica. They think they are in past times. But then they see research buildings and realized that they are in current times. They see 4 adults and realized that they are just kids! So they put on their goggles and masks so that no one would know that they are kids. When they get on the bus they are told to introduce themselves, Jack and Annie introduce themselves as reporters. When they get to the foot of a mountain nancy a guide for the 4 grownups find out that Jack and Annie are just kids! Nancy leaves jack and annie in the tent with a heater and 2 blankets.
When nancy left, Annie went out of the tent to take pictures. Jack realizes that there are cracks in the ice, and goes after annie to get her back into the tent. On the way back to the tent they fall into a crack! When they find themselves in a crack they decide to use a wand they got earlier in the series. The use the wand, but it doesn't work. Then they fall into the hole! after they fall they find out that they are moving. When they get out of the darkness they find that they are on an ice raft. They realized that the wand did work. They find an emperor penguin, and the raft takes them to the penguin. When the penguin spoke they understood him. When they went inside a cave they heard strange music. When they got to where the music was there were so many penguins. Then a baby penguin comes up and says to the big penguin that she wants to go with them. When they take the baby penguin and follow the big penguin. When they get out of the cave they use the wand to get back to Nancy. When they got back to the research building they tried to leave but Nancy wouldn't let them. Will they find away out to save merlin? Well find out yourself and read this fiction book.
This is book is from the magic tree house series. Jack and Annie are taken into the cold continent of Antarctica. They are supposed to find the Cave of the Ancient Crown. Jack and Annie soon find out that they are in contemporary times and not ancient time. They are supposed to know try to find an ancient crown in a contemporary time. This book would be considered a modern fantasy book.
Formal Review: The book that I read was Eve of the Emperor Penguin. In this book we follow Jack and Annie to Antarctica to fin d the fourth and final answer to happiness in order to save Merlin from his depression. We follow them through a cave, on a helicopter, and into a penguins secret home in order to find happiness. My favorite part of this book was seeing the way that Jack and Annie persevered through all of the challenges that they were met with on their journey and how they used everything that they have learned in the previous books to overcome these challenges. If you like learning about new places and things, going on adventures, danger, and learning the secret to happiness, you'll love this book! I give this book 5 out of 5 stars, and once you read it, I know that you will too! Genre: this book is realistic fantasy, because there is no such thing as a magic tree house.

text: Chris Chibnall hints Broadchurch series two will begin shooting in May RadioTimes.com caught up with the writer and Bafta-winning Olivia Colman to hear about the "brilliant" scripts for the next instalment... Comments Written By Susanna Lazarus 1:28 PM, 19 May 2014 Here at RadioTimes.com, we had our work cut out for us trying to extract information about Broadchurch series two from creator Chris Chibnall. The next instalment is shrouded in secrecy but the writer did let slip a few precious details on the red carpet at last night's Bafta TV Awards. Talking of his latest star, Charlotte Rampling, who is set to join the drama in a "pivotal" role, Chibnall said: "She's absolutely exceptional. We have such a wonderful ensemble, if you're going to bring new actors into that they've got to be extraordinary." He then added, cryptically... "There are more names to come." As for scripts, according to star Olivia Colman, the first two are "brilliant". She doesn't have long to wait until stepping back in front of the camera as, judging by the pair's sheepish expressions, filming on the new series is set to begin later this month...

Complete and utter fucking joke is my personal view I couldn't give a fuck about the award I just don't like things that are unfair
Complete and utter fucking joke is my personal view I couldn't give a fuck about the award I just don't like things that are unfair
There's probably a few fighters and trainers out there been overlooked. Theres only 5 in each category from all fights etc from last 15 months. Its the old saying you cannae please everybody. Your sub was excellent and obviously flashy and fan friendly but it was against a guy with limited submission defence no taking anything away from liam but im guessing they take all that into account too. I widnae worry too much about awards like this its all really just a bit of fun no reallygonnae affect anything Iin your career if your in it or not. Worry about things you can control not things you cant.
1 I made a submission up in my own mind and did it you see anyone else do that this year?
2 limited submission??? Liam has gone the distance with ufc fighters and submitted bjj black belts you fucking weapon
3 it's the point that am constantly overlooked my average fight time is 75 seconds I have the fastest 2 submissions on the biggest show in Europe and av beat I guy off tuff, it's a fucking joke so yeah am angry about it.
1. I already said it was a cool sub and could easily be put in a sub of the year category.
2. When I said liam had limited ground defense I meant in comparison to fitch. Was trying to explain why a shitty guillotine had made the list whilst ur more eye catching sub hadnt.
3. Do u really give a shit about an award fae a magazine?? Its no gonnae move u up rankings any or advance ur career in any way.
4. Im not a weapon:'( im a very nice boy!
1 I apologise
2 he has been the distance with ufc fighters so am sure his sub defence qualifies this is the comment that made me think u was a weapon,
3 you need to read my posts homie it's the fact that I don't think it's unfair
4 read post 2
thought it was sub of the year myself, and this thread could have had merit, had the opening post not been written the way it was. a tad more decorum perhaps.
"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war"
It shouldn't even matter if I was a green coloured raving homo who's just arsed raped David Cameron all it should go off is the title. submission of the year. Between all these awards what am seeing and fighters ducking fights with me left right and centre am so unhappy with a sport that a love so much
at the end of the day, talking inside the cage is all we want. this should of won SOTY, but i doubt many in mma circles have even seen it as it didn't take place in the octagon.
"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war"

The course prepares participants to become professional auctioneers. The team of instructors include past champions from both North Carolina and South Carolina, as well as technology specialists, auctioneers, real estate brokers, lawyers, and special topic guests from the local area. The CAA team of instructors is composed of skilled professionals who understand the needs of the adult learner. This combination makes learning both enjoyable and relevant. Classes meet two nights per week to allow students to attend class while working.
All of the content required by the North Carolina Auctioneer Licensing Board and the South Carolina Auctioneer Commission will be presented in order to prepare students to successfully complete the state exams. Students will be well prepared to enter the auction marketing arena. Technology and effective business practices are incorporated into the content as an added value for the new auctioneer.
Key elements of the program include:
- Auction Rules and Regulations—Understanding rules and regulations governing the auction profession is a key focus of the program.
- The Chant—The Chant is an important tool for the auctioneer. It is not about talking fast; it is about communication, breathing, and rhythm.
- Auction Math and More—Let the numbers do the talking! Auctioneers deal in numbers in many ways; therefore, understanding basic math, accounting, settlement sheets, and cost analysis are critical for the skilled auctioneer.
- Advertising/Marketing—Product knowledge is one of the skills needed to properly market auctions. The use of technology can assist in reaching the right market and maximizing your marketing dollars.
A student auction, which is open to the public, will be conducted to demonstrate skills obtained in class.

Have you noticed that many children's tales end with a victory of the heart?
The hero, after following a tortuous path of struggles, dreams and hopes, always manages to fulfill his heart's desire, while sometimes discovering it at the same time.
These stories stay in the collective consciousness for generations because everyone can recognize him or herself in the hero's quest and identify with the struggles and the longing for a happy ending.
The tales often follow the same themes: at their core is a lonely character searching for their way home or on a quest for true love.

Frank Lampard marked his 550th Chelsea appearance with a penalty against Benfica in a 2-1 victory to secure safe passage to the Champions League semi-finals.
The England international slotted home from the spot midway through the first period after makeshift centre-back Javi Garcia was adjudged to have brought down Ashley Cole in the box.
Referee Damir Skomina was the main talking point of the game, though, as he handed out eight yellow cards, with Maxi Pereira sent off for the visitors for picking up two of those in the first half.
Benfica ensured a nervy ending when Garcia nodded home from close range, although Raul Meireles scored in stoppage time to ensure they would face Barcelona in the last four.

Antietam 150: Anniversary Sunrise
17 September 2012
From the end of the day of the 150th Anniversary of the Battle of Antietam, a couple of quick shots of how it looked at its start.
First, early dawn horizon behind the 14th Brooklyn Monument at the south edge of The Cornfield.
Then, the sun slightly higher from within the corn.
Finally, full daylight; a little black powder smoke lying low over the Cornfield.
Antietam 150: The Dead of the Maryland Campaign
25 August 2012
[last update 8 March 2015]
Attached to this post is my first feeble attempt at a list of individual soldiers who died on the Maryland Campaign of 1862 – those killed or mortally wounded in action, or otherwise died as a result of their presence there. As far as I know there is no single, comprehensive list anywhere. This one is a start.
I have been motivated in part by the upcoming memorial reading of the names of the Dead of Antietam at the Antietam National Cemetery on Sunday, September 16. ANB Ranger Alann Schmidt is leading the effort, and put out a call for names to add to the lists of local burials he already has available (National Cemetery, Rose Hill, Mt Olivet, and Elmwood). I hope to be able to contribute some others.
The following nicely summarizes what we're up against here, though. It's from the folks at the Western Maryland Regional Library:
According to the Antietam National Battlefield website 2,100 Union solders were killed, 9,550 were wounded, and 750 were listed as missing or captured. Of the Confederate soldiers, 1,550 were killed, 7,750 were wounded and 1,020 missing or captured. The number of men who died of their wounds or the number of missing who had been killed is not known. A conservative estimate of 20% of the wounded dying of their wounds and 30% of the missing killed gives an approximate number of soldiers who died as a result of this battle at 7,640.
This doesn't even consider the hundreds who died in other action and of other causes during the Campaign – on South Mountain, at Harpers Ferry, at Shepherdstown, and in all the skirmishes in between.
The initial list contains a little over 2,700 names – less than 1/3 of those who died. I'm adding names to my database at a good clip, though, so the list will get larger over time. I plan to post new editions here periodically.

The iconic photograph here is by Alexander Gardner. He took it on September 19th or 20th, 1862 on the battlefield at Antietam, and titled it "A Lonely Grave". Bill Frassanito did some masterful research for his book and identified the grave in question as that of Private John Marshall of the 28th Pennsylvania Infantry. I got my copy of the photograph from the Library of Congress.
The quote above from the Western Maryland Regional Library is on their fine WHILBR site in a page about Confederate burials on the campaign.
The Antietam Roster
7 August 2012
The number of people present on the Maryland Campaign of 1862 cannot be precisely known, but it must have been large. Ezra Carman estimated troops actually engaged on September 17th at about 85,000 (51,536 Union, 32,851 Confederate), with thousands in reserve and in support roles nearby. The armies' mustering strengths in the first week of September were as great as 85,000 and 65,000, respectively. Adding in the Federal garrisons at Martinsburg and Harpers Ferry, along with local and detached units along the railroad and Potomac River, I think there were something like 160,000 soldiers on the Campaign.
I'd like to know all their names, and get them listed on Antietam on the Web (AotW) so their families, researchers, and other interested people can find them. I can't possibly get them all, I know. No one could, but I'm working on it.

It's 70 miles to Ventura from our home. Los Angeles was in the middle of a record-breaking heat wave when we hit the road, so seaside Ventura felt cool and comfortable at 85 degrees. (It was a full thirty degrees cooler in Ventura that day, if you can believe it.) Sadly, it was also a Sunday, and the post office was closed, but we had a great time peaking in the windows to check out the mural. I had to photograph the mural in three sections. The photos don't show a complete view, just the parts I could photograph through the vertical blinds in the post office windows.
|Left section of the Gordon Grant WPA mural in the Ventura Post Office, 2010.
Painted by Gordon Grant between 1936 and 1937, the mural showcases the main agricultural products of Ventura in the 1930's. I had never seen the mural in person before, but I talk about it each Fall in my History of Photography class. We discuss the Work Progress Administration and the Federal Arts Project when we hit "Week 7- Documentary Photography".
My students are always amazed that there was a time in this country when the government cared about the arts, and that during the Depression the government even paid photographers and artists to make art.
|Center section of the Gordon Grant WPA mural in the Ventura Post Office.
|Parks' "American Gothic, Washington, D.C."
Until I started teaching this class, I wasn't a huge fan of American Scene Painting, or Regionalist painting, as it is frequently called. The earnestness of the work alternately bored and irritated me. I grew up in a small town and I didn't see any reason to glorify rural living. When I was young, I wanted out. So I moved to Los Angeles and remained loyal to the Modernist camp, but seeing this work through my students' eyes has changed my mind. It would be impossible not to appreciate Grant Wood's painting "American Gothic" after talking about the many challenges of life during the Depression and showing my students Gordon Parks' photograph "American Gothic, Washington, D.C." The power of this photograph allowed me to connect with the original painting in a way that I hadn't believed possible. Who was I to overlook the value of the New Deal projects or the artwork made in appreciation of rural America? My grandmother's family home first got electricity thanks to the WPA's Rural Electrification Project.
I'm from rural America. Maybe that was the problem. But I've lived in Los Angeles for almost twenty years now and I have a new appreciation for life outside the big city. I care about where my food comes from and about the people who grow and harvest it. When I was growing up I didn't think much about the food I ate because I knew exactly who grew it -- my parents and grandparents. Today the food production system in the US is much more complex, as is my relationship to it. And today the Gordon Grant WPA murals speak to me in a way that wasn't possible twenty years ago when I packed everything I owned into the back of my pickup truck and headed West.

Free Willie- No Sing Song to Avoid Sing Sing
Willie Nelson doesn't have to sing "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" to resolve his most recent legal issues according to the associated press. Willie has had tremendous success over the years with hits like "Always On My Mind" and yes, an extensive collection of mugshots. Willie does have a tendency to live the high life but I don't care how "by the books" you are passing up a chance to have Mr. Nelson himself sing live in your courtroom and passing it up…..that's a crime. Of course I don't agree with his behavior but I would have him throw in a little "Georgia on my Mind" too. Click on the link below for the whole story.

A Better Person - Poem by Kelly Zion
You make me a better person,
you make me hurt worse and worse and
so I'm nicer to others because you're so mean to me
I don't know why that makes sense or why that should be
I guess it's 'cause I care about them as much as you don't care about me
I guess it's 'cause I wouldn't hurt them as much as you hurt me
so take my heart, break it apart and I'll just write more poetry
Maybe I should start a hurting booth, then I'll make some money
people can stand in line to throw darts at my dead body
Why can't you be the one person in the world who has a heart?
Why do you have to take more pieces off of mine?
Why do you have to leave me dead and hurting?
Why do have to leave me feeling worthless?
I guess you're just trying to make me a better person!

MBA Journal: The Path to AmazingLindsay Miller
College Hall looks like something out of Harry Potter. The oldest building on Penn's campus, it's noteworthy to many because of its imposing design and striking green coloration. But to me, it's special for a different reason: College Hall is where I took the last exam of my first year at University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School.
We, the Class of 2013, poured out of various buildings after our marketing final and joined up on Walnut Street, drawn eastward like moths toward Center City Philadelphia. The walk marked both the conclusion of a grueling finals week (five exams in as many days) and the realization that we were officially halfway done with business school. Some said it with relief, some with sorrow—but all with disbelief at how quickly it went.
As I think about how to describe my experience so far, I find that I'm holding two images of Wharton in my head. On the one hand is "Little Wharton": studying with Kathleen, making pizza with Alex, having Jamie and Ann over to watch Project Runway. On the other is "Big Wharton": sailing yachts around the British Virgin Islands, causing mayhem in Park City, going on lavish trips to Morocco, Thailand, Israel. … I mostly witness Big Wharton from afar (or via my Facebook news feed), but it's tough to think of myself as lame as I post my own pictures of black-tie parties or trekking in Patagonia to the bewilderment of my friends outside school. Ridiculousness, it seems, is all relative.
While it's not a nonstop party, there is certainly always a party to be had if you're looking for one. Often a large one. It's neither accurate to pretend that this excess doesn't exist, nor fair to make it seem as though everyone is living this way. There are board games to be played and movies to be watched, too. But I'd be lying if I didn't mention the "work hard, play really hard" motto that seems to define the experience of so many students.
For some, it's because they have money to spend, and they view these two years as a blessed reprieve from the brutal job that's waiting for them after graduation. For others, it's "What's another $10,000 of debt when I've already racked up so much?" For most, it's the realization that, along with the education we're receiving, these opportunities are special, and fleeting, and that if we don't seize them now, we never will.
And what of my transformation? This was a difficult thing to gauge while I was in school. Just as I would start to get the hang of a class or a concept, it would end, and I'd move on to a new challenge. I could never quite get comfortable, which left me wondering how much I was really learning—my knowledge seemed tenuous, fragile. I had fleeting nightmares of showing up on the first day of my internship, realizing I was completely unprepared, and slowly backing toward the elevator before sprinting to my car and speeding off.
These nightmares were short-lived. The more distance I got from school, the more able I was to see how each shred of knowledge had woven itself into an increasingly solid foundation. I learned and accomplished many things over my first year, but here are the five that most surprised me:
1) Finance. I get it now! Discounted cash flows. Dividends. Leverage. The clouds parted for me one day in Professor Kaufold's class. I heard choir music.
2) Marketing. It's less that I learned marketing, and more that I realized what "marketing" really means, and in so doing, I found a place where my left-brain/right-brain balance is not just tolerated—it's required. (Brand management, by the way, is not for the faint of heart. If you disagree with me, try spending six weeks in a simulation crafted by a statistician with a flair for the savage.)
3) Saying yes. There were metaphorical summits, like getting up in front of a room of strangers and giving a rapid-fire presentation at a PechaKucha night (it's worth a Google to find one near you). Then there were literal summits, like Mount Betinelli on Navarino Island, the most remote and pristine place I'll likely ever set foot. I've stepped out of my comfort zone and in so doing have given myself reserves of confidence that I'll continue to add to and draw upon, both personally and professionally.
4) Saying no. A necessary complement to No. 3 above. Steel yourself against the fear of missing out. If it's not in line with your goals, saying yes would merely take you away from the things you really should be doing.
5) Recruiting, etc. This is probably where I got the most concentrated dose of "professionalism." For perspective: Before business school, my name appeared on my résumé in bright turquoise letters, all lowercase. I've come a long way. I still giggle at the pageantry of the application/interview courtship, but if you're gonna play the game, you might as well learn the rules.
All in all, are these things I could only have learned in school? Well … no. Which is obvious, and evidenced by the successes and accomplishments of those without an MBA. But here's the thing—I, Lindsay, hadn't learned them yet, and if I'd stayed on my previous path, it's fairly certain I wasn't going to.
People tend to refer to B-school hyperbolically: It was the best two years of my life. My highest highs and lowest lows. But let's be honest—for some people, it's just school. I didn't come here to cause mayhem. I came to learn stuff and get a degree that says I learned stuff. Frankly, I don't want these to be the best two years of my life. I'd rather they be two amazing years that help put me on a path of continued amazingness. And from what I have experienced during year one, I'd say I'm well on my way.

Dolly Parton theme park wins top industry award
By Barbara Liston
ORLANDO, Florida (Reuters) - Dolly Parton, her signature extreme hourglass figure firmly intact at age 64, accepted the amusement park industry's top theme park award for Dollywood at the sector's annual international expo in Orlando on Tuesday.
"Of course, Walt Disney became successful because he had Mickey Mouse who has two big ears. So I figured I could be successful with Dollywood with my two big partners," Parton said in her acceptance speech.
That was followed by a quick gesture toward her business partners, Pete and Jack Herschend of Herschend Family Entertainment, part of the standing-room-only audience for the event.
The country music star later told Reuters she is working on a CD to be released next summer in conjunction with a summer 2011 U.S. tour and fall and winter tours in Europe and Australia.
She also has stockpiled a collection of her own children's songs which she said she hopes to incorporate into a children's television show produced at Dollywood.
Wearing gold stiletto mules, skin-tight black leggings embellished with gold glitter and her trademark big blonde hair, Parton said Dollywood, now in its 25th year, represents a $400 million investment and $1 billion in accumulated payroll in Pigeon Valley, Tenn., an impoverished region when Parton grew up there.
The park is the area's largest employer and most employees are locals, Parton said.
"I know how important these jobs are to people and they're proud to have them," Parton said. Continued...

Well, we're slowly but surely making our way through this list. Now onto the epic number 24....
24. Yuan (Tales of Symphonia)
Yuan is probably my favorite character from Tales of Symphonia, based on coolness factor alone. It's hard to explain if you haven't played the game, but there's just an air of awesome that surrounds him. However, he's not just some faceless cool-guy either. He's got a good bit of depth; sometimes, too much I think.
To call Yuan a confusing character would probably be an understatement. Throughout the game, you really have no idea what side he's on, if he has a side, or maybe he's his own side. **SPOILERS From the way he dresses all of his soldiers like Desians, to the fact that he willingly attacks and defends your party ** his motivations remain unknown for much of the game. And even as you slowly begin to think you've got this guy figured out, he suddenly does something crazy, and you're lost again.
This elusive, shadowy nature is another reason I really like him, though I have to admit, it sometimes gets out of hand and isn't properly explained through the game. However, he certainly keeps the suspense up, as you never really know what he's going to do; he definitely provides the narrative with some nice twists as he's always screwing with everyone's plans, and telling the big secrets.
** SPOILERS He's the one that explains Cruxis to you, he exposes much of the ex-sphere conspiracy, and of course, is the one to pull the plug on the Kratos-is-Lloyd's-father twist. And thenyou learn that he's actually one of the 4 heroes and an angel, and suddenly his coolness factor sky-rockets.**
He is truly quite a mystery throughout the game, and this is what I really love about him. Admittedly, it can get out of hand, and there are a few questions that don't really get answered about him, so that sets him back a few places on the list, but overall, he's an excellently developed character. Oh, and that sword of his is so freakin' cool.
I hope you enjoyed this entry in the list and I'll be sure to have more mysterious and tricky characters on my list soon as well.

Childrens Multi Vitamins:
Gold Crown Natural Products also provides high quality childrens vitamins, as well. Plenty of parents want to find vitamins for children, but how do you find high quality kids vitamins that are healthy and not all synthesized? This is where the decision for you to buy childrens multi vitamins from a quality natural supplement company makes sense. Then you don't have to worry about whether or not a children vitamin is really made from natural products as opposed to the many childrens vitamins which are produced with synthesized products or vitamins instead of being drawn from better sources.
Buying natural kids vitamins from a natural supplement store can help with this issue. It's important for growing kids to get their vitamins, and purchasing childrens vitamins from our store is a good way to take care of this need.
Ideally, healthy children should receive enough nutrients from their diet. However, sometimes kids are finicky eaters and today's hectic schedules leave little time for balanced meals. Gold Crowns' Children's Multi-Vitamins with Minerals provide essential nutrients that help to build healthy bodies.

Chaos and creativity of play : designing emotional engagement in public spaces
Rawlinson, Christopher & Guaralda, Mirko (2012) Chaos and creativity of play : designing emotional engagement in public spaces. In Brassett, Jamie, Hekkert, Paul, Ludden, Geke, Malpass, Matt, & McDonnell, Janet (Eds.) Out of control: Proceedings of 8th International Design and Emotion Conference : Out of Control, University of the Arts London, Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design, London, United Kingdom, pp. 1-12.
Submitted Version
How do we create strong urban narratives? How do we create affection for our cities? Play, an essential part of any species' biological existence and development, can often be perceived as chaotic and derogatory to social and spatial order. Play is also often perceived as a creative force which generates social and spatial value. This paper looks at the design approaches to both chaotic and creative perceptions of publics at play in urban space. Commonly, Urban and Architectural Design constitutes reactive management of perceived chaos, which derogatorily effects our sensory and emotional engagement with space.
Alternatively, Urban and Architectural Design can appeal to the creativity of play, by encouraging unsolicited novelty that is vital to strong experiential narratives in the city and iterating environments that encourage the emergence of physical, emotional and cultural invention.
These perceptions of chaos and creativity affect the design methodology of professional practice. Tested through the exciting vehicle of Parkour as urban narrative, the constraints and opportunities of both approaches are presented.

An Overview of Ibalizumab
May 29, 2013
Other Names: Hu5A8, TMB-355, TNX-355
What is an investigational drug?
An investigational drug is one that is under study and is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for sale in the United States. Medical research studies are conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug. These research studies are also called clinical trials. Once an investigational drug has been proven safe and effective in clinical trials, FDA may approve the drug for sale in the United States.
What is ibalizumab?
Ibalizumab is an investigational drug that is being studied for the treatment of HIV infection.
Ibalizumab belongs to a class (group) of HIV drugs called entry and fusion inhibitors.2 Entry and fusion inhibitors block HIV from getting into and infecting certain cells of the immune system. This prevents HIV from multiplying and can reduce the amount of HIV in the body.
Ibalizumab works by attaching to a protein on the surface of the immune cells. The protein is called the CD4 receptor. When ibalizumab attaches to the CD4 receptor, HIV cannot attach to, enter, or infect the cell.3
How are clinical trials of investigational drugs conducted?
Clinical trials are conducted in "phases." Each phase has a different purpose and helps researchers answer different questions.4
In most cases, an investigational drug must be proven safe and effective in a Phase III clinical trial to be considered for approval by the FDA for sale in the United States. Some drugs go through the FDA's accelerated approval process and are approved before a Phase III clinical trial is complete. After a drug is approved by the FDA and made available to the public, researchers track its safety in Phase IV trials to seek more information about the drug's risks, benefits, and optimal use.4
In what phase of testing is ibalizumab?
Ibalizumab is currently being studied in Phase II clinical trials.2
What have recent studies shown about ibalizumab?
In a 24-week Phase IIb study, ibalizumab's safety and efficacy were investigated at two different strengths in HIV-infected participants who had taken HIV medicines before entering the study (treatment-experienced). Intravenous (IV) ibalizumab was given to the treatment-experienced patients either every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks, depending on the strength of the drug. (An IV injection is placed directly into a vein.) Study participants also received optimized background therapy. (An optimized background regimen is a combination of drugs, chosen on the basis of a person's resistance test results and treatment history, that are not being studied as the investigational drug[s] in the clinical trial, but are given to help control a participant's HIV infection.) No control arm was used in this study.5
In this study, ibalizumab was shown to have significant antiviral activity in the treatment-experienced adults. In terms of safety, ibalizumab was well tolerated. The most common side effects were rash, diarrhea, headache, and nausea.5
A Phase I study of ibalizumab given by subcutaneous (SC) injection to healthy volunteers has been completed. (An SC injection is placed under the skin.)6
What side effects might ibalizumab cause?
In the 24-week Phase IIb study discussed under the previous question, the most common side effects reported were the following: rash, diarrhea, headache, and nausea. Most side effects were considered mild to moderate.5
Because ibalizumab is still being studied, information on possible side effects of the drug is not complete. As testing of ibalizumab continues, additional information on possible side effects will be gathered.
Where can I get more information about clinical trials studying ibalizumab?
More information about ibalizumab-related research studies is available from the AIDSinfo database of ClinicalTrials.gov study summaries. Click on the title of any trial in the list to see the ClinicalTrials.gov trial summary and more information about the study.
I am interested in participating in a clinical trial of ibalizumab. How can I find more information about participating in a clinical trial?
Participating in a clinical trial can provide benefits. For example, a volunteer participant can benefit from new research treatments before they are widely available. Participants also receive regular and careful medical attention from a research team that includes doctors and other health professionals. However, clinical trials may also involve risks of varying degrees, such as unpleasant, serious, or even life-threatening side effects from the treatment being studied.4
