Have Relationship Questions? Ask a Counselor for Answers ASAP
Sometimes when you push people away they aren't there when you come around. You created this emotional distance and that can change someone's feelings. The only person that knows if they will return is her. You can't push people away when you are going through something. A couple shares everything. You have to learn how to be a couple when there are problems. And now you have to convince her that you can do that. You can at this point only apologize for your behavior. She is either ready to accept that or not. Telling her how you feel and why things will be different is your only option. It may be a bad time now if she is having exams but it's never too late. She will be able to decide if the relationship is worth saving. As far as the guys are concerned it sounds like she is considering other options. Either she has put herself out there as available or they are inappropriate messages from guys she knows. Either way she needs to respect the relationship and your feelings.
Please press accept
While I certainly understand your desire to know what she is thinking, the truth of that matter is that you won't know unless you ask her. Blocking you on Facebook is a common tactic these days when people get angry...but I don't think you should assume that this is true unless you have an opportunity to talk to her.
The fact remains that you were rude to her and pushed her away before leaving the country. That had to have hurt. Certainly that lead to some concerns about trust.
It sounds to me like an awful lot of "game playing" has gone on between you and that neither of you is being 100% honest about your feelings. Good relationships are built on honesty. If you are willing to be that honest, trusting guy then you have something to offer her. If you're not...then you're not.
It does seem like a lot of healing needs to happen between the two of you if you have any chance to build a loving, healthy relationship. Is that what you want?
You write that you don't know how to approach her. The only answer I can provide is to be 100% honest...honest about the untruths you told about when you were leaving the country, honest about where your heart is, honest about what you want with this relationship.
As to her saying she doesn't want a relationship right now. Perhaps that is her truth. If so, you may have to be patient and wait for her to do the work of gaining in independence.
Dr. Levang
Good Morning,
With all the game playing that both of you have done in the past, it certainly is difficult - and maybe even frustration - to understand what is true.
Kudos to you for acknowledging your own feelings and putting out the idea of taking it easy and attempting to regain trust and respect. That truly is the best way to proceed here. Only with time, commitment, and truth telling will you be able to determine if this relationship will succeed.
It certainly is possible that her motivation is to use you to ease her own feelings. Equally possible is that she is truly wanting to patch things up by leaving the door wide open.
But again, you can't mind read her, nor can you change her. All you can do is to follow your own heart and make the best decisions you can for your life and your future. If this is someone that you want to invest time in, then do so.
To some degree, both of you seem "stuck" - unable to go forward or backward. Perhaps you will need to sit in that stuck position for a bit and do some soul searching as to what you truly want here.
Just checking in to see if you posted back.
If you feel satisfied with our chat, please press the green Accept button. Thanks.
Her acknowledging that she doesn't know what she wants is admirable. And it confirms what I suspected all along - she's conflicted and doesn't know want she wants. I'm glad that you are doing some communicating - that means the door is still open.
As I said before, YOU are not sure what you want. While you are away, use the time wisely to examine your own motivations to reunite. Is it about real love, or about convenience? What brought you happiness in the relationship? Is this enough to build a future on?
It is far too easy to jump back in an old relationship without doing the work of understanding what drove you apart...and conversely...what holds you together.
YOU need to make a decision about this girl for you. Remember, you have one and only one life to lead.
Dr . Levang
And...please press the Accept button. You can always post another question to me in the future.
Wow. Not sure what to make of her behavior...was she telling the truth, or being rude and mean as a way to make you jealous. Hard to tell.
As best you can, I encourage you to not get overly heated about this. Long distance relationships are cumbersome and difficult to manage. Some people don't have the patience for such things, nor the necessary qualities of loyalty and self-sacrifice.
YOU need to decide what you want. For now, take the time away as an opportunity to work on your own goals and priorities for a love relationship. No matter what happens here, you will be in a better place when you return to pursue love.
I agree - rebound relationship. Yes...very typical behavior for someone who doesn't know how to end relationships in a respectful and loving way. And/or indicative of someone who doesn't want to be alone, or lonely, or on their own. There is often an inability to be self-sufficient or independent. That is, always needing some one in their life as a crutch.
In reality, you will likely be a "ghost" in this rebound relationship.
Cool, calm, collected!
Definitely not needy, clingy.
If there is to be a new chapter, she will have some explaining to do, will have to offer some sort of apology, and be committed to repairing the broken trust.
Rebound relationships don't tend to last. She's likely using him as a way to clear her mind.
Yes...I think there could be a new chapter.
Be patient. Keep the door open...
Hmmm...she can't stop thinking about you, compares you to others, doesn't think it will work with anyone else...but doesn't want me back. Do you see her confused thinking here?
She doesn't know what she wants. Okay. We can understand her confusion. You are away. She got lonely. She wanted attention. She finds a substitute for you. That substitute guy doesn't take away how she felt about you like she thought he would. Now...what does she do? She has no idea.
Meanwhile, you are away. You won't be back for 4 months. You believe that you can have a long-distance relationship and, if though you might get lonely, you don't go out and find a substitute girlfriend. You are patient, loyal, and are holding on to the relationship.
Is the picture getting clearer here?
You get to choose what you want to do with your life. She gets to choose what she is going to do with her life. It appears that before you left, the two of you made some sort of commitment to uphold the relationship during your absence. You kept that commitment. She hasn't.
Again, each of you has to decide what you want. You have the choice to stay committed to her and, when you come back in 4 months, to see if you can pick up the pieces. Or, you can say forget it, I'm not waiting for her. She also gets to make choices here as to how she wants to handle this.
Clearly she doesn't know what she wants. Are you willing to give her the room to figure this out? Or, have you had enough?
It would be easy for you to say...she's out dating...then so should I. However, I would caution you not to make a rash decision like that. If you truly believe that you want to mend this relationship on your return, then be extremely careful in how you proceed. You certainly do not want to add more turmoil on to the situation.
I hope this helps.
Her motivation for talking to you is a bit strange. I think it would be best to come right out and ask her what she wants. For example, Why do you want to keep talking to me when you are in another relationship? Do you want my help in improving your relationship with him? Or do you my help in getting over me?
Once you find out what she wants, then you have the choice whether to keep talking to her or not. If she wants you to help her with her new relationship...the answer is No. I'm not willing to do that. If it is to help her get over you...the answer is No. I have my own work to do to heal from this relationship and I'm not willing to do your work to.
Do you see where I am going here?
She can only USE you, if you let her. I think you are capable of making a wise choice!
As to what someone told you about your staying in the picture helps her new relationship. Mind reading never works. You have no idea how this guy thinks and you have no real idea what she is up to. Talking to you may lead him to be jealous and, therefore, work hard to keep their relationship going strong. But even then it's all based on falseness. I don't think this should be your concern. What you need to stay focused on is what you want and how you feel.
Please remember to press the Green Accept button!
She continues to sound very confused. Without you being there on the ground, it's quite difficulty to know exactly what is going on.
You put your cards on the table and that was the right move for you to make. All you can control is your half of the relationship.
I think it might be time for you to back off a bit and let her make the next few moves. You've shared your feelings, said you are standing firm in your loyalty to her.
Her saying that she's not sure if your relationship is worth saving just demonstrates again how unsure she is. You could counter by saying, "I believe it is worth saving and I'm willing to put in the work to do so." When you decide what you want, let me know.
I wouldn't be so quick to answer her emails or otherwise communicate with her. This on again off again thing is going to get tiring for you and it may cause you to throw up your hands in disgust and back out completely. You might need to go so far as to say, "Unless you have something positive to talk about, then I've heard enough about your uncertainly about a future with me."
You are not a puppet on a string!
A big fat NO to sending her any more money. You are not a bank! Nor a cash machine! Nor a money tree! You get my point here.
In my experience, relationships that are held together by money are a poor investment for the one handing out the dollars. One doesn't know if its love that is fueling the relationship or the lure of money.
Her statement that "...no intention of being with me now....misses me....wants what's between us to be as ambigous as it is now" strongly suggests it is about money and not about building a relationship.
The possibility she throws out of renting a room from you and living with you a few months seems like another ploy to get to your wallet.
I'm sorry..but she appears to be selfish and not at all concerned about you...but about herself.
I encourage you to be very cautious. I am not hearing anything on her part that suggests she wants to work toward a healthy relationship with you.
Well...her defensiveness indicates that perhaps she is not telling the whole truth. If she asks you for money, then you have the right to ask why she wants to borrow it so you can decide if its a good risk or not! Yes...sounds like she is taking you for a mug and that you are right in being suspicious.
Please do not get caught up in her getting angry and calling you horrible! That's just another attempt to get you to pity her and give her what she wants.
I applaud the thinking you have done about this. Yes...it does appear that she used the time while you were away to see what else was out there and now that she has broken off with this last relationship, she wants you back. Well...you have far too much self-worth to fall into that old trap. She was disrespectful to your relationship during these months, she was hurtful, she destroyed your trust. That she is not willing to talk about what occurred while you were gone by being honest and open about her behavior is just another sign of her immaturity and inability to be engaged in a healthy relationship. I think what you have learned about her is that she is not the kind of woman you want to have a future with. She betrayed you, she took advantage of you, she was not committed.
I am sorry this has happened. Long-distance relationships are difficult..but often the true personality of the individuals are revealed. Painful as this is, her actions certainly point to the reality that she is not the person you once thought.
If you want to have a cordial relationship with her going forward...okay. But today there is no trust in your heart..that may never change for you.
I agree that the money could have been some kind of "hook" to keep the two of you connected. I think there was also an element of a "test" - if you would have given her money when she pressured you over those several days she would have used that as evidence to say that you were still committed, or at least involved.
It was a good thing that you did not send money. That was a clear sign of your unwillingness to be "used".
What you do when you see her in June really will depend on how you are feeling at the time. She has not lived up to any sort of commitment to you while you were away. She has acted immaturely and not been honest. With the lack of trust you have, there would have to be a great deal of repair work done to salvage a love relationship.
Before you meet her, I encourage you to think seriously about your own goals and desires. Could she possibly be a friend? Or truly is it time to move on to a new relationship? If the thought of being friends has no appeal to you...then I say end it and go about getting settled back in to life and work to develop a new relationship.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
claiming a firearm that wasnt yours in a motor vehical
It's tough to answer your question without knowing a little more about the case, but here goes. If you claimed ownership of a firearm in a motor vehicle, even though it really wasn't yours, then can be easily convicted of a crime for the act of possessing the firearm in a motor vehicle. Depending on whether the gun was loaded or not will determine whether you are charged with the Felony 4 Carrying Concealed Weapons or perhaps the Misdemeanor of Improperly Handing Firearms in a Motor Vehicle. Also your conduct with the officers that night -- i.e. were you polite and cooperative or a jerk? -- will determine whether you are charged with a Felony or Misdemeanor.
Now as far as doing time for this crime, that probably depends on whether you have a previous record or not. If you have prior convictions, then I can see most Trumbull County Judges giving you a short sentence for this crime. If you have a Felony or drug conviction behind you, then you will also be charged with Having Weapons While Under Disability in State Court or Possession by a Prohibited Person in Federal Court.
Either way, you definitely need to hire a lawyer to represent you. Reading between the lines here, if you took the hit for your friend who really owned the gun, then he should man up and pay for the lawyer for you. Either way, you need someone on your side and fighting for your rights.
Good luck in this case and beyond!

Your question is not clear about what you are charged with. All the things that I can think you would be charged with carry a potential for jail time. You need a good criminal defense attorney to answer your question. To be able to answer it throughly we would need more information. I would suggest that you not post that information online though because it could be against you. You need to hire an attorney. Judges take gun charges very seriously. Good luck.

Ray Lewis knows exactly how he would like to end his storied 17-year National Football League career, but the Baltimore Ravens linebacker prefers to measure his life by more than gridiron results.
Lewis yearns to raise the Lombardi Trophy for a second time and needs a road win game to reach his first Super Bowl since the Ravens' triumph in 2001.
The 37-year-old inspiring leader of the Ravens, and 13-time Pro Bowl selection, said he has told team mates about the sweeetest words he has ever heard on the job.
"How can you top the moment of hearing those famous words, 'Ravens have won the Super Bowl.' When you play the game that is what you play the game for. You play and hope that one day you hear those words," Lewis told reporters in a conference call.
"That is what I'm trying to get this team to go back and hear one more time. So that they can really feel what it feels like. Because when you hear it, like I tell all of them, your life will never be the same again.
"Once you are a champion, you are always a champion, and that is likely one of the best things I am going to remember of all time."
Many Ravens are rallying to send Lewis off on a high note.
Running back Ray Rice, who is one of Lewis' nearest friends on the team, believes the Lewis' "last ride" has been a factor in the Baltimore Ravens beating the Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos in the playoffs.
"For our general, our captain, this is it for him. If you want to call it riding an emotional high, naturally we are," Rice said. "We're going to go out there and give it our best shot for our man. He's done it for 17 years and led our guys to one Super Bowl. I'm not taking away no credit from the Patriots. They set the standard on how to win. But you're talking about a pioneer that laid a platform for the entire NFL. We'd like to send him out the right way."
Even the NE Patriots paid respect to Lewis.
"It's really a pleasure to play against him," asserted New England's Tom Brady, who has won more NFL playoff games than any other quarterback (17). Basketball betting lines
"He's really been so consistent over the years and durable and tough. He's so instinctive. He doesn't give up barely any plays, makes a lot of tackles."
Lewis said the winning or losing wasn't most important.
"I think the best thing you can ever be remembered for is the impact and things you had on other people," he said.
"At the end of the day, with all the men that I've been around, to one day look back here and hear men say, 'He was one of people who helped changed my life,' is maybe one of the best legacies to be remembered for."

St. Clair Shores
Shores city manager job offered to Saginaw assistant manager
By Kristyne E. Demske
Posted July 30, 2013
The city of Saginaw's assistant city manager for public safety is being offered the job of city manager for the city of St. Clair Shores, following months of search, hours of interviews and a 6-1 vote to extend Phillip Ludos a conditional offer of employment.
Mayor Kip Walby said at a special meeting July 29 that a number of City Council members contacted the four finalists for the job again after the July 25 and 26 interviews to get more information and "put an effort in analyzing them."
The motion to extend a conditional offer to Ludos was made by Councilman Peter Rubino and supported by Councilman Chris Vitale.
Ludos is currently assistant city manager-public safety in the city of Saginaw and was previously the director of public safety in Greenacres, Fla.; chief of police in Cocoa, Fla.; deputy chief and chief of police in Inkster; and chief of police in Memphis, Mich., and the Little Traverse Bay Band of Odawa Indians in Petoskey.
Councilwoman Candice Rusie was the lone vote against Ludos' hiring.
"I just don't feel he's the right fit for the city," she said, explaining that decision partly stemmed from his answer that he may only stay in the community for two to three years.
Rusie was also concerned with Ludos' lack of background with some city departments, like the department of public works and senior center, although "he's very big in public safety."
Vitale said he appreciated Rusie's concerns, but thought a shorter amount of time on the job would mean a leader who stayed fresh. He also said he thought Ludos showed a background of reform in his previous jobs.
"He emphasized the need for quality neighborhoods and schools," Vitale said. "He shows a willingness to embrace technology."
And according to Rubino, when talking to Ludos after the interview, Ludos said that he perhaps could stay longer than three years on the job.
"He's managed larger budgets and more personnel than anyone else we interviewed," Rubino said. "I feel he is the perfect person for our city at this time."
In his July 25 interview with City Council, Ludos said he had experience on both sides of the bargaining table in contract negotiations, having served as grievance chairman for a union early on in his career.
"I understand where they come from, but it's more important that I sell where I'm coming from," he said.
He said he also increased the use of technology in Saginaw, where they created an app for iPhones that allows users to get updates on crimes in the city and give tips on serious crimes; in the future, he said they planned to allow users to file police reports online.
Ludos said he sees opportunities for development along Harper Avenue, as well as the Nautical Mile and that St. Clair Shores has a lot to offer.
"You have to first market all of the assets that St. Clair Shores has," he said, including parks and good schools. He explained that when he was serving in Florida, there was often a rehabilitation of the housing stock from people tearing down homes built in the 1940s or 1950s and rebuilding brand new homes.
"What are we going to do with this older housing stock? How are we going to change the face of the Shores if we leave it like it is?" he said are issues to consider.
"Let people see what's attractive about St. Clair Shores."
Councilman John Caron said 35 people submitted applications to the Mercer Group, which was hired to run the city manager search. The company followed guidelines submitted by council, which included candidates having management experience, and submitted 10 semi-finalists for City Council's consideration.
Seven of those were city or township managers already, he said, and three were major department heads, and those candidates were whittled down to the four interviewed by council: Oakland Township Manager James Creech, Ludos, Marine City Manager John Gabor and James Palenick, the interim Town Manager for Dallas, N.C.
Rusie said she wanted to do a second round of interviews with the top two candidates, which she thought were Ludos and Gabor, to "get some of our concerns answered publically.
"I wish we would have had a little more public back and forth with the candidates," she said.
Nevertheless, she said, "I hope he (Ludos) does a good job. I hope he proves me wrong on some of these things."
Walby said acting City Manager Mike Smith would be letting Ludos know of council's decision. Contract negotiations were expected to begin Aug. 2 and any contract will have to come before council for approval.
Former City Manager Ben Hughes, who resigned in November, earned an annual salary of $115,000, along with benefits including insurance, a retirement plan and a car allowance. A total compensation package of about $165,000 is budgeted for the position of city manager in the 2013-14 fiscal year budget.

AT&T's Global Enterprise Business Positioned By Analyst Firm in Leaders Quadrant for Global Network Service Providers
San Antonio, Texas, August 24, 2007
London — AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) announced today that leading industry analyst firm Gartner Inc. has positioned AT&T in the Leaders Quadrant of the 2007 "Magic Quadrant for Global Network Service Providers, 2007."1
Commenting on this latest report from Gartner, Ron Spears, group president — Global Business Services, AT&T, said "We believe the Gartner placement in the Magic Quadrant reflects the continued investment and commitment that AT&T has made in supporting its global enterprise business, and demonstrates that we are meeting the needs of our business customers by providing them with an exceptional product portfolio, unprecedented network reach, and a consistent service and sales experience, wherever they operate in the world."
To be positioned in the Leaders Quadrant in Gartner's Magic Quadrant report, network service providers had to have a full portfolio of voice and data products, coupled with above-average service and support, wide global coverage, and competitive pricing. In addition, providers must have a strong vision that includes adopting more information and communication technology (ICT) capabilities, which they articulate clearly and openly.
Gartner studied companies with at least $200 million in direct global enterprise network service revenue (excluding domestic business and wholesale) that offered voice, data and managed network services to customers across multiple geographies. This included network service providers that deliver services and have points of presence in the top 25 global markets in North America, Western Europe and Asia Pacific. The rankings were based on vendor survey responses, vendor interviews, multiple global enterprise customer interviews, and direct Gartner customer feedback.

Tokyo (AFP) Sept 24, 2011
Flammable gas has been detected inside a pipe linked to a nuclear reactor at Japan's crippled Fukushima atomic power plant, its operator said Saturday.
Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) was unable to identify the gas but nonetheless said it was unlikely there would be an explosion in the reactor.
The company has been injecting nitrogen into the reactor so that the level of oxygen inside becomes low enough to prevent blasts.
But a TEPCO spokesman said workers at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant measured a 100-percent flammable gas in a pipe connected to the power station's reactor number one.
"It is not clear exactly where and how this gas was created," the spokesman told AFP. "We are considering ways to deal with it.
"It is likely that we will continue the survey the gas to identify it and use nitrogen to bring its level low enough" to avoid explosions, he said.
There were explosions at the reactors at the Fukushima nuclear plant after they went into meltdown following the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, which hit its cooling systems.
In the world's worst atomic disaster since Chernobyl, the Fukushima plant has since sent radiation into the air and sea, forcing tens of thousands of residents to evacuate and consumers to avoid food from the region.
Japan has promised to achieve a cold shutdown of the plant by the year-end.

Baidu's 'smart' chopsticks take stab at food safety
Tech giant says prototype can warn diners if food made with 'gutter oil'
They're thin, smart and possibly a weapon in the war for food quality control on the mainland.
Search engine Baidu yesterday unveiled a prototype of a pair of smart chopsticks that the company said could detect "gutter oil" and warn users if the food was unsafe to eat. Gutter oil is illegally reprocessed cooking oil that can contain cancer-causing compounds.
Baidu's billionaire founder, Robin Li, introduced the chopsticks and the company's answer to Google Glass at Baidu's annual developers' conference in Beijing. "We released the concept of smart chopsticks in April, and many people asked me if they could get a pair. We didn't have the product ready then, but we have it today," Li said. "This is a new way to sense the world."
Kaiser Kuo, the technology firm's spokesman, said the battery-powered chopsticks were fitted with sensors that could assess the acidity and temperature of oil. The sensors could also test for certain compounds to tell if a meal had been made with recycled cooking oil.
Baidu has not decided whether to commercialise the product, but test results have been positive, he said.
"The light will flash red if the TPM (Total Polar Materials) level in oil is above 25 per cent, indicating that the oil has been re-used beyond a level deemed safe, " he said.
A blue light indicates that the chopsticks' tips are detecting some other reading, for example, pH levels in water.
The current version of the chopsticks does not test salinity levels, though Kuo said it was a feature they might add to the device later.
The Beijing-based company also offered a look at the BaiduEye, a camera-equipped device that wraps around the side of a user's head and beams information about items to the user's smartphone.
"You can use voice commands, or gesture commands - like expanding to zoom, or circling an object in your field of vision with your finger," Kuo said. "You can identify plants, or find products - so far, handbags and articles of clothing - on e-commerce sites."
Unlike Google Glass, BaiduEye does not have a display. "We found that screens impair vision and tire your eyes easily," Kuo said.
Li said he expected voice and picture-based search to exceed text-based queries within five years.
Google Glass, which went on sale in the United States in May for US$1,500, displays a thumbnail-size transparent screen over a user's right eye, enabling users to conduct searches, read email and check maps using voice commands and gestures.

|Pretty intimidating lead for the grade. No bolt either. Because of the slimey-ness of the first crack, I had to layback it. Great gear though. There's a stuck blue cam right before the horizontal break. After the horizontal ledge, it was unclear whether to go straight/right or left. Left looked easier, but I chose right, where an offwidth crack (I laybacked) gets you to the top. Hard to protect here but I slung a good wedged in block inside the crack.

We recently stayed at the Oxford House Inn and it was wonderful. The restaurant had great food both for dinner and next morning's breakfast. We stayed in the porch room which faced the road- there was quite a bit of traffic and resulting road noise-we should've closed our window. Otherwise a wonderful example of a well maintained and run Inn!

Light a fire
Of course, one sure way to make a room feel cozy is to literally turn up the heat. Something about a fire crackling signals it's time to settle in for a while. If you don't have a fireplace, group candles in several places in a room and light them for a similar glow.

Set your garden aglow
Brighten beds with fiery flowers for a warm look all season. Plant torch lily beside a red cordyline to make its orange flower clusters really pop. Fill in around both with low mounding grasses, such as Carex glauca, and perennials like Sedum 'Autumn Joy'. Add a row of Stipa gigantea, like the ones behind the wall, as a backdrop; if possible, position these grasses where the sun can backlight them for part of the day.

Toss in some (faux) sheepskin
The luxurious high pile of faux sheepskin is a cold-weather must. Place small skins on dining room chairs, larger ones one the floor, and either size as a throw over sofa arms. IKEA is an inexpensive source.

Snuggle up amid the snow
Two-story cabins with stone fireplaces, hazelnut risotto, a fire-side pool game—there's lots of coziness to savor at the Emerald Lake Lodge in Field, B.C. Tucked onto a 13-acre peninsula jutting out into its eponymous lake, the lodge is refreshingly wifi-and-TV-free, leaving you lots of time to soak in the Candian Rockies after a day of playing (or skiing) in the deep, soft snow.

In today's society we are now seeing more children under the age of twelve developing eating disorders. Eating disorders typically develop during adolescence or early adulthood. However, they can start in childhood, too. It is estimated that 40% of nine year olds have already dieted and we are beginning to see four and five year olds expressing the need to diet. It's a shame that children so young are being robbed of their childhoods. Eating disorders in children and teens cause serious changes in eating habits that can lead to major, even life threatening health problems. Children may also develop eating disorders as a way of dealing with the many emotions that they feel, especially those that a....

Research Information:
Our laboratory has investigated the structure and replication of telomeres using yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a genetic model system. Telomeres are the structures present at the termini of eukaryotic chromosomes composed of G+T-rich DNA and a plethora of proteins that allow complete replication of the telomere and protection against factors that can act to degrade chromosomes. We have been exploring several novel aspects of telomere function. Multiple studies have implicated defects in telomeres and the onset of oncogenesis and chromosomal catastrophe. While most eukaryotic telomeres are replicated by the reverse transcriptase telomerase, we have focused on the second recombinational mode of telomere addition and deletion, both of which are highly maintained in vertebrates. Some protein complexes involved in this recombination pathway are present exclusively at the telomere while others are present both in replication and DNA repair. Using alleles of mutations in gene that encode components of these complexes, we have investigated the mechanism of telomere recombination. These studies have led to the discovery that telomeres have an epigenetic and heritable component. These latter finding provides a completely novel view of telomere regulation in yeast and in vertebrate oncogenesis.

Having made up my mind, I loyally warded off anything that might jeopardize my decision.
Mike Lofgren loyally served the GOP on Capitol Hill for 28 years.
Any black officer in uniform, no matter how loyally he had served the republic, was killed or thrown in chains.
And Netanyahu has loyally followed that advice since entering politics a quarter century ago.
Not since Carmela Soprano has a wife stood so loyally behind her n'er-do-well husband as Denise Richards has in recent months.
His admiration for the elder philosopher was great and he cherished it loyally for the rest of his life.
At any rate, it was the woman to whom he was determined to be loyally kind.
loyally and faithfully I shall await your success; but until then we must be strangers to one another.
"My mother has a great deal to trouble her," she said loyally.
Zaidos held it loyally but he kept his eyes shut tight, because he could not bear to look.
1530s, in reference to subjects of sovereigns or governments, from Middle French loyal, from Old French loial, leal "of good quality; faithful; honorable; law-abiding; legitimate, born in wedlock," from Latin legalem, from lex "law." In most cases it has displaced Middle English leal, which is from the same French source. Sense development in English is feudal, via notion of "faithful in carrying out legal obligations." In a general sense (of dogs, lovers, etc.), from c.1600. As a noun meaning "those who are loyal" from 1530s (originally often in plural).

Journal Entry: December 30th, 2001
Today was a weird day because it was our first night game and also the first time that we've played games back to back. It was a bit of a scramble as far as breaking tapes down of our game against Russia the night before, getting the team to the rink in the morning, getting Mike Kelly over to Pardubice to scout the Czech-Sweden game in the afternoon, having the players shut it down for three hours in the afternoon. It was out of the routine that we had and maybe we'll have to go back and look at what we did--we'll have to see if there are any changes that we should make about scheduling practice and meetings and meals.
I don't like how our team responded to playing back to back games for the first time here. I know that the win over Russia was a big game for us, an emotional win, and it might have taken more out of our guys than I realized. It was clear, from 30 seconds into last night's game against Finland, that we didn't have the same energy on the ice. I tried to bring the guys down after the Russia game but it's hard to do when there's so much intensity. No matter what you say to them, they're so high that they're going to stay up there for a while. No matter what you say about the round-robin and every game being equally important in the round-robin, any game against the Russians is something special to Canadian players and a letdown the next game is a danger.
The Finns deserve credit for their victory. They played us tough last year, tying us in the opening round and beating us in the semi-final and they were a very similar team this year. They might play as well together as any team in tournament.
Right now our guys are down but we'll work to get them back up. We're going to go with Pascal Leclaire in goal in our quarter-final game against Sweden. Olivier Michaud has been very good for us and he made the decision tough. From what I've seen the Swedish team is an awful lot like the Finns. They would have beaten the Czechs more decisively than they did yesterday if it weren't for a huge game by the Czechs' goaltender. Like I've said all along this tournament is a four-game regular season and three Game 7s. We have our first Game Seven tomorrow. One part of the tournament is over. The most important stuff is still ahead of us.
