When the soil temperature in regions of the eastern part of the U.S. reaches 64 degrees F., the 17-year cicadas will emerge by the billions from the earth. This year's brood of the 17-year magicicadas, and different broods emerge on different years, is one of the biggest. The noise made by them could be deafening.
What is called ordinary cicadas emerge from the ground every year around the world, including the U.S., but these 17-year magicicadas are different. Those who have seen them up close notice their red-eyes. These magicicadas are seen only in the eastern half of the United States, which still goes almost to Colorado, and nowhere else in the world. The estimate of total magicicades in the ground ranges from 30 billion to 1 trillion.
Experts actually hedge their bets on how many years the offspring of each brood stays in the soil—from 13 to 17 years.
"There will be some places where it's wall-to-wall cicadas," the Associated Press quoted University of Maryland entomologist Mike Raupp as saying.
Entomologists say these cicadas won't hurt people or animals. The worst thing they seem to do at high populations is damage a few saplings or young shrubs. The wingless nymph form of the insects have been a few feet underground sucking on tree roots and waiting for some trigger to know it is the exact time to emerge after years and years of maturing. They come out and molt into winged adults able to fly.
After a few weeks in and on trees and shrubs, the magicicadas will die and their offspring will go underground, not to return until 2030. But while these cicadas are around, they are going to be really, really noisy. The males are making their extreme sound to attract females to have sex and complete the reproduction cycle so that billions of their offspring can go back into the ground for 17 years.
In good weather and growing conditions, the cicada population that will emerge can be smaller or larger than the previous 17-year brood because a female cicada can lay around 600 eggs, which can hatch and drop to the soil to burrow into the ground. The majority of cicadas staying close to home can account for some areas having tons of the noise makers and other areas not having many or none. Additionally, the vegetation makes a difference, too.
It could really be a noisy May for some areas of the country.

MES: When Preparation Meets Opportunity
An Innovative Implementation of MES Is How Bristol-Myers Squibb Ensured That Activities Performed at FAT Became Useful in Meeting Regulatory Requirements
By Brian Chviruk, Bristol-Myers Squibb
The Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) represents a lingering dilemma for many engineers: Accept the vendor's standard FAT with the intent to recheck everything during the Site Acceptance Test (SAT); develop specialized FAT procedures intended to help reduce SAT activities; or choose one of any number of other options.
When Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) announced plans to construct a biologics manufacturing facility in Devens, Mass., it provided a unique opportunity for BMS engineers to put into practice some intriguing ideas they had been discussing about streamlining the entire validation process by incorporating FAT activities. A central enabler included in these discussions was the early incorporation of a manufacturing execution system (MES) into the work process.
Validation Defined
"Validation" has many different meanings depending on the industry sector. For example, many people associate validation activities with a strict set of requirements established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that apply only to the drug and health-care industry. Though those in particular industries are quite familiar with FDA validation requirements and activities, the fact is that various forms of validation exist in all industries, albeit frequently referred to by other names – "commissioning," "verification" and "ISO 9000-certified" being among the more familiar.
Validation is closely related to quality-release testing, but is different in the sense that the latter often implies post-production verification that the product meets pre-defined specification, whereas prospective validation activities prove that the process itself produces products within specification.
Validation also dictates that a robust quality assurance plan exists, is being appropriately applied and, therefore, proves (validates) that the process will produce products within pre-defined specifications.
The significant requirements of any quality assurance (validation) effort include:
- A set of procedures that cover key business processes;
- Monitoring processes that ensure procedural effectiveness;
- Maintaining accurate, detailed records;
- Checking process outputs and applying appropriate corrective and preventative action where necessary;
- Regularly reviewing individual processes and the effectiveness of the overall quality assurance plan; and
- Facilitating continual improvement.
Once a process is running and making quality product, engineers are often reluctant to introduce new ideas, technologies or practices because of misconceptions about regulatory hurdles and/or perceived inconsistencies between systems or sites. What is odd is that those same persons often take pride in constantly refreshing their knowledge about technological advances while remaining guarded about being an early adopter.
While a cautious approach intended to protect consumers and patients is critical, today's worldwide business environment also punishes those that procrastinate in their adoption of innovative technologies and business practices.
What we often witness is that 21st -century business successes come to those companies with a corporate culture that embraces innovative thinking. However, innovative ideas alone aren't the whole answer. Each idea must be submitted to the securitization of reliable, risk-based management practices that can transition innovative ideas into well-organized, actionable opportunities.
21st-Century Thinking
Shortly after the FDA began encouraging the use of risk-based approaches to advance good manufacturing practices, BMS engineers began exploring ways to increase the use of state-of-the-art technologies and practices. Although several innovations have been successfully completed, many of the more novel and forward thinking ideas simply weren't feasible to implement on existing processes.
When BMS announced plans to build a large-Scale cell culture (LSCC) facility in Devens, Mass., a once-in-an-engineer's-career opportunity emerged. Employees would have the opportunity to implement an often-discussed, highly integrated, paperless plant designed to achieve:
- Highly automated and tightly integrated electronic production and laboratory batch records;
- Batch releases by exception;
- Application of a science and risk-based approach to validation;
- Implementation of an open-office environment designed to maximize collaboration within and across functional groups;
- Contributions to the company's Sustainability 2010 Goals.
As previously mentioned, the key to turning innovative thinking into actionable opportunities is the use of sound, risk-based management practices. In the case of BMS's LSCC facility, risk management considerations included using existing industry consensus standards such as ASTM E2500, ISA88 and ISA95.

BICESTER businesses say they have been left in "limbo" over when they will have to vacate their premises to make way for a new station.
Firms in one half of Station Approach were told in 2010 their sites would be bought by compulsory purchase order by Chiltern Railways to make way for its Evergreen Three Project.
But they say they are still waiting for details and it is "frustrating" because they can't plan for the future.
A new station, parking and realigned road will be built in Station Approach.
The line between Bicester Town station and Oxford was closed on February 15 and work started last week to remove the first section of track.
From 2015, the route will offer Oxford commuters a new line to London, and people will be able to travel between Bicester and Oxford in 14 minutes.
Paul Gray, Grayline coaches operation's manager, said the firm had been waiting for more than a year for the CPO and was concerned it could miss out on a potential new site.
He said: "We have got our eye on a site we'd like to acquire and develop, but until such a time as the order lands on our desk we are not in a position to move."
Luke Williams, assistant manager at nearby Plumbase, said: "We are trying to find a building the same size or bigger and it's difficult."
A Chiltern Railways spokesman said: "The legal notices relating to the CPO process are currently being prepared.
"We are in touch with all the affected businesses and are working with them to help them find alternative premises."

It was often boring, with splashes of highlights and terrible turnovers to liven things up. One thing this game wasn't, though, was close.
UNLV built a double-digit lead in a little more than five minutes and easily dispatched Sacred Heart 82-50 Friday night at the Thomas & Mack Center. The game never got closer than 23 in the second half, and the Rebels cruised to the end for their largest margin of victory this season.
It's the third straight win by at least 19 points for UNLV (6-4), which is taking advantage of a weaker stretch of its schedule.
"We needed games to blow out teams so we can get our confidence up," said Khem Birch, who had 15 points and eight rebounds. "At the beginning of the year, had we played this team, I don't think we would have won by more than 10 points."
Anyone in the announced crowd of 12,235 would probably disagree with that. Sacred Heart (2-10) has played some good games this season, including an overtime loss at Boston College, but the Pioneers never had the personnel to stay with the Rebels.
The Rebels' front court did whatever it wanted against Sacred Heart's undersized group. Roscoe Smith registered his seventh double-double with 15 points and 13 rebounds, helping UNLV dominate the boards 53-34.
And the thing is, the Rebels didn't even put any extra emphasis on getting the ball down low. They shot 21 3-pointers in the game, including a 1-for-13 effort in the second half.
"Coach didn't say anything about passing inside tonight," Birch said. "He just wanted us to play."
With a 27-point lead and nine minutes on the clock, all five UNLV starters were still in the game. The Rebels led by as much as 36 early in the second half, but once that started to slip, UNLV coach Dave Rice put his main guys back in the game.
It's the latest example of a Rice trend with rotations. There's a balance to strike between giving the bench extra minutes in a blowout and trying to also keep your foot on the pedal. Rice said he felt he accomplished that — freshman Demetris Morant played nine minutes, Daquan Cook and Carlos Lopez-Sosa combined for nine — but also made his top priority clear.
"The No. 1 thing is trying to win the game, and win the game by as many points as possible," Rice said.
Freshman Christian Wood missed all four of his shot attempts, including three 3s, but he still finished with four points, six rebounds and five blocks in 16 minutes. Bryce Dejean-Jones had 14 points with four assists and only one turnover.
Overall, the team shot well — 44.4 percent — but the amount of attempts and misses from 3 was a head scratcher in an otherwise solid outing. Rice said he was OK with the shots because they were open.
They certainly were open looks, but there's also something to be said for force-feeding the ball inside when getting away from that style of play has been an issue in losses. Plus, they knew it would work.
Either way, this was a solid get in and get out effort from the Rebels. They played a great first half that ensured the outcome heading into the second half. And they got out healthy before playing a back-to-back Sunday and Monday, starting with Santa Clara at 7:30 p.m. at the Orleans Arena.
"We're going to need everybody this weekend," Rice said.

Jeff Kennedy is a bit of a novelty. He's the manager of The Bishop's Lodge Ranch, Resort & Spa stables, and he's in charge of wrangling horses and guiding guests through the more than 400 acres of Bishop's Lodge trails adjacent the Santa Fe National Forest. Oh, and his name tag also reads Brooklyn, New York, where he was born and raised.
Clearly Kennedy couldn't have grown up as a cowboy, but you wouldn't know on first sight, as the title is perfectly suited to him. He's tall, lean and wholesomely attractive beneath a black cowboy hat, dark aviators and leather chaps.
The cowboy lifestyle is one he definitely embraces. Since settling in Santa Fe, Kennedy acquired a three-quarter-ton Ford diesel truck that he finds appropriate to drive while wearing his cowboy hat and playing country music. His motorized stable includes another truck, an '83 pickup to pull his horse trailer, a car and a motorcycle.
But wrenching, for Kennedy, is only a complement to his calling. Kennedy relishes wrangling cattle and camping under the Western sky. Daily he helps take care of the lodge's 17 horses. Early this summer, he dragged SFR staff writer Wren Abbott and me through the Sangre de Christo foothills that he knows as well as his favorite country song.
Perched atop his personal horse, Famous Shoes, Kennedy displayed what I learned is "cowboy posture" (Abbott apparently has an English riding style, and I have, well, nothing worth defining as a "style").
The three of us rode east into land that eventually leads to the Ski Basin and then the vast Pecos Wilderness. As our burly horses sauntered up hillsides, we talked at length on subjects ranging from regional cacti to the call of The West to the many schools of thought surrounding the treatment of horses. Kennedy discussed the attributes of American paint horses, red roan appaloosas, and Belgian draft and Arabian quarter horse mixes (all of which are under his purview at the lodge). Horses, in particular, bring Kennedy joy.
Unlike stereotypical cowboys, Kennedy enjoys conversation. He loves talking to the wide range of guests who come seeking some approximation of the Old West and a connection to nature.
His occupation recalls a calmer, simpler time—although I'm not sure where in Wild West history I'd place my mid-afternoon leisure cruise on a horse called Cadillac. (William Shatner recently rode the horse as well and, according to Kennedy, Shatner too thought the ride was smooth.)
At SUNY New Paltz, Kennedy studied anthropology, a major that tumbled him through a litter of unrelated jobs, from fine dining waiter to credit company lackey.
But outside of Kennedy's ability to talk comfortably and confidently, there are no clues to his aimlessness prior to finding himself on horseback. He describes his job—his calling, really—with the sort of honest enthusiasm that inspires a marriage of envy and mild rage from the office set.
"I get to dress like a cowboy, work outside, ride my horse every day," Kennedy says. "Where I work is absolutely beautiful. And I work with great people, meet interesting folks—everyone who comes up here is doing it to have a great time, so it's a real fun, happy place to be."
And no, he says he'll never work in an office again.
It's a pleasant life that apparently shows itself—or doesn't—on Kennedy's youthful face. He says in passing that he recently attended his 20th high school reunion. He is 37.
His high school, he says, mostly turned out "cops, firefighters and finance guys." Kennedy is the only wrangler and it's likely to stay that way.
Whatever he does in the future, he plans to do it on a horse.
As Kennedy led us back to the stables after our sunny afternoon of riding, my only regret was that we didn't stop for cowboy cuisine, on the side of the trail, with the wind in the trees as a soundtrack.
I guess that's a reason to go back.

A danger foreseen is half avoided. --Proverb
The Volatility Index (VIX) hit a 52-week low earlier this week. Although it is far from a perfect metric, the VIX is a useful gauge of complacency in the market, and investors have had good reasons to be complacent over the last few weeks. Indices are up more than 3% across the board since the start of the year. The market has been buoyed as the fiscal-cliff rhetoric has faded into a background after a resolution was reached earlier this month. The market is now focused on the upcoming debt-limit talks and the sequester.
However, the market is ignoring worsening conditions in Europe at its own peril. The Continent is in the eye of the storm, and rougher weather lies ahead. Much like each of the last three years, events in Europe will hit the domestic market sometime in the first half of the year and cause equities to pull back 5% to 15% in the next six to nine months.
Below are some of the signs of deterioration in Europe. I have also included what I am doing to position my portfolio ahead of a market selloff triggered by Europe.
- Germany, the last strong economic engine in Europe, is starting to falter. The country announced Wednesday that GDP contracted a preliminary 0.5% in the fourth quarter, which was greater than expected and marked a deterioration from +0.2% in the third quarter. German growth fell to 0.7% in 2012 from 3% in 2011. It also cut its own GDP forecast for 2013 to 0.5% from 1%. Expect little to no growth in 2013; a slight decline is not out of the question if conditions continue to worsen.
- Despite much better interest rates since the European Central Bank decided to go all in to support sovereign debt, the condition of Spain is not improving. Spain's debt-to-GDP level for 2012 came in at 9% vs. a target of 6%. Unemployment continues to hover around 25% with few positive catalysts on the horizon.
- As bad as things are in Spain, they are much worse in Greece. Unemployment is at 27% and bread prices are soaring. Matthew Lynn had a great piece in MarketWatch on Wednesday about accelerating food inflation and how it could lead to revolutions in some emerging markets in 2013. It is his black swan for the new year. Greece is on this list, and if this event were to occur, it would probably lead to the long-awaited and feared "Grexit."
- Finally, auto production is falling off the cliff. After falling more than 8% in 2012, another 5% decline is expected in 2013 as the market heads toward annual production of just 11 million vehicles from 16 million vehicles in 2007. The industry is unlikely to get much help from Russia this year, either, as sales are projected to grow less than 1% after more than 10% growth in 2012. Falling auto production will continue to put a major damper in European industrial production and job growth going forward, much like it did here in 2008-2009.
Actions investors should consider are:
- Take the advice of Euro Group President Jean-Claude Juncker, who recently said that the euro is overvalued. I am short the CurrencyShares Euro Trust (FXE).
- Avoid companies that get a large portion of earnings from Europe. Sales are likely to be very challenging and if the euro declines, that will negatively affect earnings. I would be particularly wary of entities like McDonald's (MCD), which are likely to be hurt by the same food inflation that Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) warned about Wednesday for its poor guidance.
- With volatility so low, buy some protection on your long positions by picking up some out of the money puts on the cheap.

Georgia in the Pines
As she strolled the hallways of Silver Palms Elementary on that Tuesday morning, Kristi Krueger wasn't the Channel 10 anchorwoman seen on television. She was the suburban mom, the one who went by her married name, Templin. And she was there to tell administrators she'd be bringing cupcakes to school at lunchtime for her daughter's sixth birthday.
But she felt a sense of danger. She'd just seen Georgia Roberts, her nemesis, out in the parking lot yelling at a father. She suspected she might be next. She thought Roberts, another mother of a kindergarten-aged girl, might try to sabotage the birthday. Krueger was tired of hiding from Roberts in the school's hallways, sick of the unwanted gifts, irritated at having to hear how pretty she'd been on TV, appalled by the entire fantasy world Roberts seemed to live in. This was stalking, Krueger believed.
As she walked out a doorway, there was the waifish dark-haired Roberts with anger in her eyes. "You bitch! You bitch!" Krueger says the other mother screamed at her, grabbing her arm. "How could you do this to my daughter? You are going to get yours!"
A school counselor, James Maisel, quickly separated the two women.

"Now you've gone too far!" Krueger yelled back at Roberts.
The incident marked a turning point in a heated war between the two suburban moms. It also set up this past summer's headline-inducing stalking trial, in which Roberts stole the show. Though seemingly driven by irrational forces, she manipulated the chaos, turned it into a game to be won. She laughed, wept, ranted, and cajoled in court -- underneath it all was a near-ferocious tenacity. In the end, it was up to the jury to decide if she was a delusional stalker or a devoted mommy. "I am like an onion. I have layers," Roberts says. "You peel a layer and there is another one. And another after that, and after that. Sometimes, as with an onion, you may cry. I can make you cry. I am raw. I am worth it."
She did make Krueger cry, especially after Roberts won the game: The jury acquitted her of aggravated stalking and battery in July. But it's not over yet. The same jury split on a lesser-included misdemeanor stalking charge, and a new trial is scheduled for December.
The obsession, the courtroom theatrics -- it's all been played out before. Roberts concedes that she seems always to be trying to relive her childhood, which was marked by isolation and death. The Krueger saga has several parallels to the last time Roberts made headlines, in 1986, when she killed her friend, Angela Puccetti, with a shotgun in what police determined was an accident. Krueger, in many ways, was to Pembroke Pines what Puccetti was to Roberts' Chicago-area high school: the popular blond everyone knew and seemed to admire, the girl who had it all. Puccetti, a cheerleader and homecoming queen, was once Roberts' ticket to the popular crowd; in Krueger, she saw a local celebrity who could take her to the social stratosphere of Broward County.
She was virtually run out of Pembroke Pines, but she won't soon be forgotten. Before she arrived, nobody had seen anything like this mad mother, this suburban tsunami, who wreaked havoc on the town and says she did it all for the children.
Georgia Roberts' life in South Florida was filled with the stuff of children: Mickey Mouse, big stuffed animals, clowns, and Santa Claus. She liked nothing better than to dress up her toddler twins, Kyle and Kylee, in cute outfits and show them off around town. All three usually wore big plastic sunglasses. "I do wear sunglasses constantly, because I don't want people to see the hurt in my eyes," Roberts explains in her dramatic way. "I've been wearing them since I was 20 years old. They say that the eyes are the windows to the soul -- I don't want people to see mine."
Roberts says her existence revolves around her little boy and girl -- that their 1995 birth gave her a new chance at life. "When I wake up my children, I blow butterfly kisses on their faces or I tickle their toes," she says. "If I die in a freak accident, my kids need to know that they were loved, desperately loved."
While her twins remained constant, husbands came and went. In 1998, Roberts married a boyfriend named Ronald Fagan but a year later divorced him to marry Gary Roberts, the twins' father, who moved to the Pines from Chicago to win back his family. Considering that in the past, she'd had him arrested on charges ranging from sexual assault to battery, it was easy to predict the new marriage would be volatile.
But Gary Roberts, who worked as a reporter at the Coral Gables Gazette, embraced suburban life. Soon, he was coaching little league soccer and tagging along to kiddie events with his twins and wife, who would invariably saddle him with a disposable camera to be used upon her orders.
But he was just backup -- Georgia Roberts was the real Kodak commando. She went to events armed to the hilt with a still camera and at least one of her three camcorders, along with a backup battery in case technical disaster struck.
She quickly became known by Pines officials as the manic mother at events with names like Bunny Brunch, the Golden Nugget Hunt, and the Masquerade Munch. "I liked my children to sit up front where we would be the first in line, and we would videotape," she recalls. "I wanted a spontaneous shot. If something happens to me, I want my children to know they did things when they were little and had true little expressions on their faces. The magic starts to wear out when they get older, you know."
For Roberts, enjoying her kids' lives became a veritable blood sport. At the events, she would fight with other mothers and officials, often in a bid to get to the front table with the mayor and other dignitaries. "She would be my only mother I would fear at events," Pines special events coordinator Frances Novo recounted in a deposition.
Things really got out of hand at Bunny Brunch 2000, when Roberts started hurling bagels and donuts at city workers after they stopped her from taking the leftover morsels home. When told to return the food, Roberts began "yelling, screaming, and actually threw the stuff at us," Novo said. "If she didn't have the box [of bagels]... would she have smacked me? I don't know."
During the conflict, she also argued with her husband, who became so angry that he broke the key off in the family car's ignition. But the world wasn't any wiser. The Miami Herald, in its story on the event, ran an adorable photo of little Kyle searching for eggs.
The ultimate event was Pines Day, a celebration of the city's birth, which involved a parade, a huge cake, and the crowning of the Pines' pageant winners. In April 2000, Roberts entered Kylee in the Little Miss Sweetheart Princess contest for 4-year-olds, and she was chosen the winner. Kylee made the Sun-Sentinel, and officials called upon her to represent the city at ribbon cuttings and other major events.
The victory emboldened Roberts and confirmed her suspicion that her twins were special, yet her conflicts only worsened. She says the scenes did no damage to her kids' psyches. "The confrontations were habitual, so the kids really didn't know I was making a scene," Roberts explains. "But I don't believe I was being unreasonable. I don't see why I can't sit at the front table with all these fat people who are feeding their faces with bagels and donuts."
During Snowfest 2000, Roberts felt she'd earned the right to skip the line, especially since Kylee was Little Miss Sweetheart Princess, and Kyle was slated to perform as one of Santa's elves. "This is f-ing ridiculous," Novo recalled Roberts saying. "My child should be in the f-ing front."
Novo told Roberts to wait like everyone else, which only intensified the profane rant. Finally, the mother, in a rage, threw her son's green elf costume at the mortified city official. "I said, 'Here, bitch, take it back,'" Roberts recalls.
Gary Roberts made earnest though rather feeble attempts to control his aberrant wife, which would usually lead to public marital spats. Renee Nunez, the city's soccer program coordinator, remembered several flare-ups in which the couple would get into "nasty fights on the sideline and would use the f word in front of the children," she said in a deposition.
Nunez also said that Roberts, even though she was one of the "most protective mothers you'll ever find in your life," could be rather rough with her kids. She remembered that Roberts once "snatched [Kyle] and just, like, forced him to the ground like a spike" while posing the boy for a picture on the field.
Roberts admits that she "manhandles" her kids at times but says she makes up for it with love. "Sometimes I'm stern and I'm pushy and I'm verbally aggressive with my children," she says. "But I know they know I love them... Those kids adore me; they worship me."
The adored mom kept her eye on Pines Day 2001, when Kylee would ride on the city float, cut the cake, and bestow her crown upon the next princess. "When my little girl is in high school and some girl calls her a piece of shit or some boy rejects her, all I wanted to do was be able to tell her that when she was 5 years old, she was the Pembroke Pines princess," Roberts says, her voice choked up with emotion. "I was going to give her some self-esteem I never had."
But the parade conflicted with another major event --the birthday party of Kristi Krueger's daughter, Kelsie. Roberts boasted all over town that Kylee was invited to the party. She told officials and other mothers that she and Krueger were great friends, name-dropping in a bid to get special treatment.
But the friendship was news to the anchorwoman. She was scared of Roberts.
Krueger lived only a couple of miles from Roberts, but they were a world apart. While Roberts had no real occupation, Krueger was "an award-winning health reporter and effervescent anchor," as her promotional bio on the WPLG website puts it. The daughter of a former general manager of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Krueger graduated from the University of Florida, won an Emmy, and was named First Lady of Broward. Roberts dropped out of college and never won an award in her adult life.
Krueger lived in Pembroke Pines in a half-million-dollar home with an SUV and Lexus in the driveway among the affluent in the gated community of Silver Palms. Roberts dwelt in a $200,000 house in strictly middle-class Towngate and drove a Saturn.
The two women seemingly had only one thing in common: They were both mothers of daughters who attended Silver Palms and practiced gymnastics at the nearby Park Avenue Gym. Roberts' version of the relationship begins in her living room, watching Channel 10: "I noticed this blond lady who was cross-eyed, and she was paired up with a black guy wearing a lot of makeup, which would be Dwight Lauderdale. She seemed to go out of her way to be friendly... I thought either she was the nicest person in the world or the phoniest."
Soon, Roberts says, she began to see the broadcaster all around town. As she toted her then-toddler twins on errands, she'd see Krueger at drug stores and gas stations, at Chuck E. Cheese, Winn-Dixie, Publix, and a Barnett Bank branch.
In the spring of 1998, she finally spoke with her favorite broadcaster. The twins, who were almost 3 at the time, were dressed up to see the Easter Bunny at Pembroke Lakes Mall. As Roberts snapped photos, Krueger happened by and told her, "Your kids look just like two porcelain angels. They'll outshine the Easter Bunny."
Around Halloween, Roberts claims she bumped into Krueger again, this time as she was leaving a store with her twins. Krueger politely held the door for them and picked up a stuffed animal that fell out of Kyle's hands. "I remember that she was wearing shorts and I noticed her legs -- I don't want to say they were big, but they were chunkier than I thought they would be," Roberts recalls.
That December, Roberts and Krueger happened to wind up in the same line at a Home Depot, where they chatted about their respective houses. In August 2000, they chanced upon one another at a Barnes and Noble bookstore, where they had a long conversation and Kylee first met Kelsie. Ten days later, they met outside a Toys R Us and decided to have lunch together at Miami Subs. "I followed her shiny gold Lexus," Roberts says.
You might call it a highly improbable series of coincidences, but Roberts calls it the chronology of a budding friendship. Krueger, though, says it's all a figment of Roberts' twisted imagination.
When Kristi Krueger talks about Georgia Roberts, she's talking about her own personal nightmare. She says the woman has tormented her since they first met at the Park Avenue Gym shortly after the 2001 school year began. Roberts approached, said she was a huge fan, and began to recount facts about the broadcaster's life -- that her son had been treated at the Dan Marino Center for headaches, for instance -- that Krueger felt were too personal for a stranger to know. "She showed me pictures of her daughter winning Pembroke Pines princess -- it was just an assault of information," Krueger recalled in a deposition. "A friend and I both agreed this is a mother we need to stay away from."
The following school day, Roberts gave her daughter a present to give to Kelsie, a little "Tommy Tooth" throne to hold her first lost incisor. Krueger threw it away. After that, Kylee gave Kelsie many other gifts, including videotapes of cartoons and stickers to take home.
Roberts would also find Krueger in the school hallway every morning and tell Kylee things like, "Go over there and say hello to your best friend, Kelsie, and tell Kelsie's mommy how pretty she looked on television last night."
"She was pushing a friendship that Kelsie really had no interest in," Krueger said in the deposition.
To avoid her persistent admirer, Krueger changed the time of her daughter's gymnastics class and began using the back door at the school each morning.
She says Roberts also would often eat lunch at the school and sit with Kelsie, prying information from her, asking personal questions like, "[Are] your mommy and daddy in love?"
"Georgia asked my daughter, 'Who's going on your skiing vacation?' And my daughter said, 'Troy, Mommy, Daddy, and Elizabeth.' Elizabeth is her doll," Krueger recounted in her deposition. "Later... I hear lovely stories of how Georgia is telling numerous people that I have an illegitimate daughter named Elizabeth who I had with probably one of my father's football players when he was the coach with the Buccaneers."
Roberts also started popping up at Publix on Monday mornings, when Krueger, a self-described "creature of habit," did her weekly shopping. She claimed that one morning, she decided to go 90 minutes later than usual but still found Roberts there, walking up and down an aisle with three items in her buggy. She said Roberts rushed up to her and said, "Oh, you're late today shopping -- so am I."
Krueger claimed that unsettling incident prompted her to switch supermarkets. But nothing would stop Roberts. "Every time I turned around, she would be there," Krueger says now. "She was living in this fabricated world, and I was the starring character."
When Krueger substitute-coached her daughter's soccer team, Georgia Roberts was there snapping pictures. This kind of thing went on until Krueger became fed up and called assistant state attorney Tony Loe, who was recommended by a friend. After Loe told her to try to settle it outside the courtroom, Krueger asked Roberts to stop dropping her name, making up stories about her, and following her around. Roberts was upset but agreed.
But it was only the beginning. In early April 2001, Roberts waited for Krueger at the school one morning and told her in tears that Kylee had to be invited to Kelsie's April 28 birthday party. "She's a pageant princess -- how could you deny her?" Roberts asked her. "I know you think I'm stalking you. I know I scare you, but I'm not really scary."
When Krueger rebuffed Kylee's mother, Roberts told the broadcaster that other mothers were jealous of them, since both of their daughters were so special, and that Silver Palms might become another Columbine or a "Texas cheerleader situation."
With this prospect of violence, Krueger's patience ran out.
While Roberts denies much of Krueger's story, the gist is certainly true: Roberts was obsessed with Krueger, and the anchorwoman was genuinely frightened. Roberts confesses to overstepping her bounds; she says she was seeking "validation" -- one of her favorite words -- from Krueger. Newscasters "come into your homes on a daily basis, and you feel like you know them, but you really don't," Roberts explains. "At some level, I crossed the line. I was too much of a pest. I lost my mother, and my father never validated me, and that makes me feel insecure, and that causes me to talk a lot. I got a little kick by being on par with this woman."
Roberts insists she never had lunch with Kelsie; she found out about "Elizabeth" from Kylee, who mistakenly thought it was a real child. "It was just gossip," she says.
For Roberts, Krueger was on the highest social plane, while other mothers occupied an almost subhuman level, and she herself was somewhere in the middle. "Those other mothers validated their lives through Kristi more than I ever did -- they were total phonies," she says. "They couldn't stand that someone like me could shop at Nordstrom's once in a while and then go have a big greasy hamburger at Denny's, which is still my favorite restaurant. They looked down on that. In that way, it was like high school all over again. I knew I was better than them."
As things were boiling over with Krueger, Roberts was busy battling with one of those other mothers, Hilda Sultan, whose daughter Alexis was in Kylee's kindergarten class. Roberts and Sultan had once been friends, enjoying play dates with their children, but both women say the relationship ended when the other became obsessed with her child.
Roberts began telling everyone that Sultan might try to sabotage Pines Day to harm her daughter out of envy. Sultan, a licensed psychologist, says the allegations began only after she rejected Roberts.
"She has a narcissistic need for control, power, and attention," says Sultan, who once complained to an assistant principal after Kylee won the lead of a school play over Alexis. "She has a thirst for status, and she targets whoever she perceives to have status, be they doctors or anchors or beauty queens. Then she tortures them. I believe she sadistically enjoys all of this."
If Roberts relished the Silver Palms fiasco, her joy lurked somewhere beneath apparent desperation. She became apoplectic about the fact that Kylee wasn't invited to Kelsie's birthday party -- and apocalyptic about Pines Day.
The imbroglio, in some ways, mirrors Roberts' dispute with her former roommate in Chicago, Laura Peveler, that prompted her to buy the shotgun that ultimately killed Angela Puccetti. "She was doing the same thing she did with Angela, saying someone was out to get us, saying that she and I needed to be protected from Hilda Sultan just like she said back then that she needed protection from Peveler," says Krueger, who didn't find out about the shooting until after Roberts' arrest.
Both Sultan and Peveler are third wheels in the respective dramas, and both claim Roberts unwittingly sucked them into the picture. Ultimately, Roberts blames both: Peveler for the shooting of Puccetti and Sultan for the meltdown with Krueger.
And it was getting creepier. According to Krueger, Kylee told her at school, "My mommy says I have to wear a bulletproof vest [at the parade] because somebody is going to take me out."
The week before the climactic Pines Day was filled with a rising tension:
Monday, April 23: Roberts complains to Pines Police Officer William Felix that Sultan pulled Kylee's hair at the school, a claim that was never substantiated. Roberts mentions Krueger's name several times, so Felix checks the story with the anchorwoman. "The only mother who is unstable, the only mother I'm frightened of... is Georgia Roberts," Krueger tells Felix.
That afternoon, the frustrated Krueger confronts Roberts in the school parking lot and demands she back off, leaving Roberts and her twins in tears.
Roberts claims an enraged Krueger pounded on her car window. "I swear to God it scared the shit out of me," she says. "I was so sure it was going to be Hilda and so relieved that it was Kristi. Then the bitch starts dragging me out of my car. She grabbed me hard. It was like a death grip."
Tuesday, April 24: The alleged wrist-grabbing incident occurs in the school and Krueger goes back to Loe, who instigates a police investigation. Roberts later files a restraining order against Sultan. "She is obsessed with my twins, namely Kylee," Roberts wrote in the order. "Jealous and vindictive that Kylee will be on parade float... and cutting cake for Pembroke Pines birthday."
Wednesday, April 25: Sultan and Krueger each file restraining orders against Roberts, whose next move is to call Pines police and complain that she's received a call from the WPLG office. She plays a recorded message from a "deep, almost disguised type male voice... that pretended to be Dwight Lauderdale," according to Officer Jennifer Arguri.
"You better leave my anchor bitch alone," the voice says. The cops never got to the bottom of that one.
Playground cruelty also rears its head, as Kelsie and Alexis chant at Kylee, "Your mother is crazy, and she's about to go to jail."
After Kylee bursts into tears, a teacher makes Kelsie apologize.
Thursday, April 26: Roberts files a rambling five-page restraining order against Krueger. "I would like Kristi Krueger Templin to stop smirking in the hallway of my kids' school," she writes. "She is just another mom... My kid is a pageant winner and I like her to shine on her own, not be linked with a reporter's kid."
The order is denied by a judge, but that doesn't stop Roberts from passing copies around the school and gym. "She just wants me not to be able to have the party, that's what she wants," Krueger tells police in a sworn statement.
Friday, April 27: For Krueger, it is crucial that Roberts be stopped before Kelsie's party the following day, so Loe makes a special trip to the Pines Police Department and rushes through an arrest warrant, which is signed by Circuit Judge Marc Gold.
Pines Day, April 28: About 2 a.m., police knock on the door of Roberts' house, where Kylee's crown, sash, and red dress are out for the big parade, as are the little girl's curlers, makeup, and lip gloss. Roberts, in her Mickey Mouse shirt and Winnie the Pooh bottoms, is charged with aggravated stalking and taken to jail. "I was crying the entire time," Roberts recalls. "All night, I was in a cell with the prostitutes. Then they put me in my own cell because I was crying so hard."
At 9 a.m., she calls her husband on the jail phone. "Get Kylee to Pines Day," she orders. "Forget about my bail -- just get her to the parade!"
Kylee winds up missing the parade and the cake-cutting but makes it in time to pass on her crown. "I wasn't going to let Krueger take that away from my daughter," says Roberts, who posted $5,000 bail later that day. "But she didn't make it on that float, and that's exactly what that bitch wanted. That bitch wanted to take away my Pines Day, the only thing I cared about in this world. And she laughed about it."
Krueger's party, guarded by an off-duty policeman, goes off without a hitch.
In May, the stalking trial opened in Gold's courtroom in downtown Fort Lauderdale. While acting as her own attorney, Roberts scampered about frenetically day after day, often rolling her eyes and gesturing toward the jury box and gallery. She talked so fast that court reporters couldn't keep up, and she peppered her discourse with mundane details, products of her "photographic memory."
Like a child in class, she would stand on her tiptoes and insistently raise her hand to be called upon by Judge Gold, who would scold, "Put that hand down -- we are not in high school!" or, "Not another word from you!"
Gold found her in contempt of court three times, fined her, and sentenced her to two days in jail for her antics. But nothing would stop her defense.
It was a ridiculous spectacle but also an effective one: While making a mockery of the courtroom, Roberts mastered the case. She tore the prosecution's arguments to pieces, which wasn't that difficult considering that her star witness was Leslie Haywood, the Pembroke Pines detective who led the investigation. He testified that Loe pressured him to make the arrest though there was no probable cause. Haywood didn't believe the facts substantiated an aggravated stalking charge, which requires that there be a "credible threat" of violence.
There was also a long line of other witnesses, including city officials, school employees, and a team's worth of soccer moms, who can be surprisingly vicious. After Denise Kilanowski, a room mother at Silver Palms, testified that everyone was afraid of Roberts, the defendant objected, at which point Kilanowski said, "I'm going to get up, come over there, and you're going to get it."
But the highlight of the long trial came on May 22, when Roberts cross-examined Krueger for four hours on the stand. The defendant repeatedly established that Krueger had gotten details of her story wrong. Most important, James Maisel, the school counselor who witnessed the alleged wrist-grabbing that prompted the battery charge, told the jury that Roberts had never touched Krueger.
While Krueger testified, the two mothers also had a few personal asides:
Roberts: Are you testifying that I'm delusional?
Krueger: I don't think I'm qualified to say if you are delusional. I think you are a liar... I think you have a fantasy that I was your friend, that we did a lot of things together we never did...
Roberts: So I'm not a very credible person?
Krueger: Well, I don't know what you are, but when a mother is talking about Columbine and Texas cheerleader murders and I've got a 5-year-old little child I love very much, I was not about to take any chances with her life or mine.
Roberts: You know that I love those twins more than my own life, don't you?
They argued about their relationship:
Roberts: We did not see each other on my birthday at Walgreens?
Krueger: It is another fantasy.
Roberts: It is a fantasy? You don't want to be at Walgreens with me because we engaged in conversation and you gave me a little gesture hug?
Krueger: Oh, I never gesture-hugged you. Trust me.
And at the end, Roberts laid down the guts of her defense:
Roberts: I have never threatened you, your life, your sweet little girl, have I?
Krueger: Yes, I think you have. You said, "You will get yours" and you talked about violent things, and I have no idea what you meant by any of those things... There are too many awful stories of people who just snapped, and you seemed to be very close to that. I wasn't going to take any chances.
Roberts: But I didn't snap, did I?
No, she didn't, and that last point was the clincher for juror Neil Riddles. The aggravated stalking charge didn't stand up because there was simply no credible threat, he says. For Roberts to tell Krueger "You will get yours" wasn't enough to send a woman to prison for up to five years. "If you can't show that when she was talking about Columbine, Roberts was threatening Krueger's family -- then the prosecution really has a big problem," explains Riddles, who is a CEO for a financial services firm. "The rest of the case falls apart."
The battery case, Riddles says, was "a real easy one," because Maisel said it never happened. Krueger insists the school counselor simply must have missed it: "She grabbed my arm -- she touched me."
Riddles was sympathetic to the anchorwoman. In fact, he was one of only two jurors who felt that Roberts was guilty of the lesser-included misdemeanor stalking charge, which doesn't require a threat of violence. Other jurors dismissed the case out of hand and criticized Krueger for using her influence to bring the charges.
When the not-guilty verdict came down on July 2, Krueger's husband called her with the news. She was in a store buying educational supplies for Kelsie. "My knees buckled; my heart stopped," she recalls. "I fell to the ground, and I was trembling all over. I got so weak, I couldn't stand up."
Though Roberts still faces the stalking charge, it is Krueger who dreads the next trial. She's willing to drop the case if Roberts agrees to a year of counseling. "I wish someone would convince her to accept that plea," she says. "I don't want to hurt her. I don't want to take her children away from her. All I want is for her to get help. I want to be her last victim."
During a September 8 hearing, prosecutor Avrunin offered Roberts the plea bargain in open court. "My answer is no," Roberts told the judge. "I will have a jury that will acquit me immediately."
"My nightmare continues," Krueger says.
One reason Roberts wouldn't take the plea bargain is that she intends to sue Krueger for malicious prosecution. And, though it's a dubious case, she's already counting the money. "All I want is for that bitch to replace my car," Roberts said outside the hearing. "I'm going to have all the rest of the money go to Project Innocence."
While her calendar book is again filled with her children's special events and birthday parties -- the twins had 32 kids at their last one, she claims -- Roberts isn't as active at their Orlando-area school because she is afraid a background check will show her felony arrest. She hates rejection. "I'm low-key now," she says. "Boy, have I changed my tune. I'm working at a very, very discreet level with the PTA moms now."
Still, she shows up in the cafeteria to have lunch with her kids and occasionally visits their classrooms. "My kids are so wonderful -- they get along with everybody," she says. "My daughter scored 138 for IQ. She has a photographic memory like mine. My kid is smart like I am. I'm just screwed up."
Of course, she's still at war, and not only with Krueger but also with her husband. A drunken New Year's Eve argument in 2001 landed Gary Roberts in jail on a charge of resisting arrest ("I just couldn't believe that bitch called the cops," police reported him saying as they hauled him away.) Then his wife filed for divorce. Yet both still live in the two-story suburban house and rotate use of the master bedroom by the month. "I've got this huge walk-in closet," she says. "Krueger probably doesn't even have one as big."
While Georgia says Gary is a loving father and a kind man at heart, she also blames him. "It all stems from my asshole husband -- he's my problem," she says. "If he just gave me some validation, I wouldn't seek it from other people."
She hints that her validation is now coming from an unlikely place: soccer dads.
"If I have a nice figure and I want to wear little shorts like Britney Spears wears, too bad," she says. "I look hot. I'm a rebel, and society doesn't rule me. I always think of the Jon Bon Jovi song" -- here she starts singing -- "'It's my life/It's now or never.' If I was ever going to stalk anybody, it would be Jon Bon Jovi."
She laughs before happily continuing:
"When I'm on the sideline of the soccer field, these fathers are looking at me and talking to me, and the mothers are giving me dirty looks. So maybe it is now my chance to be the head cheerleader from high school. I mean, some of them undress me with their eyes, but I like their company. Men are nice. I've never liked women. They are bitches."

Olivier Duler knows what it takes to succeed — in wrestling, in school and in life.
"I take pride in what I do," he said. "I work hard in practice and I work hard once I get home, do what has to be done."
Duler, currently in his second — and final — year as the captain of the Tam High wrestling team, possesses both a strong will and a laser-sharp focus that are cuts above the average student athlete's.
"It takes a certain kind of mentality to be successful in wrestling," he said.
That mentality is something he's developed in spades over the past two years and doesn't plan on relinquishing any time soon. While he's still waiting for his appointment, Duler has already received his congressional nomination to the United States Military Academy at West Point.
"There's a small degree of parallel between the discipline it takes (to be in the military) "... and the discipline it takes to be in wrestling," Duler said. "I would be surrounded by the same level of discipline. I'd be surrounded by my peers, basically, same as in wrestling."
Even when he's surrounded by his peers at Tam, Duler has worked hard to cultivate an enthusiasm for wrestling that is already paying off; Tam won its first two dual meets against Marin Catholic and San Marin.
"It's his dedication," coach Andre Salinas said. "He runs, he lifts, he conditions. He's a student of the sport, he takes it seriously."
"He kind of just has that energy," assistant coach Kelley Charlton added. "He organized runs and weightlifting for the team before the season started. He did that on his own, contacting all the guys and "... really working with them."
Those workouts took place before school each day, starting around 6 a.m., Duler said.
"It was mostly for the people who weren't playing football," he explained. "I didn't want them laying around. I wanted them to understand it wasn't going to be a cakewalk. "...It helped weed out a couple of kids who weren't committed."
Those extra workouts, which are reduced to twice a week and a couple of other things have helped the team to its early success. An influx of freshman helped fill out the lower weight classes and the team retained wrestlers such as Nate Boutwell, Sebastian Tamblyn and Steven Peters.
Lastly, Duler grew up into his role as team captain, after stepping up into the role as a junior on a senior-free squad.
"He takes his role seriously," Salinas said.
"I'm feeling a lot more comfortable being a captain," Duler said. "I have more experience I can share. "... This year I have my head on my shoulders and I know which direction I want the team to go."
That direction is for a year-round commitment to the sport, he said, including participation in summer camps.
"I'm hoping for a bit more dedication," he said. "I want a level of commitment that will allow the team to grow and get some depth."
Duler is smart; he knows that success breeds success.
"The more we build the base, as a team we'll be solid," he said.
Duler wants a piece of that success for himself, too, and is aiming to win a league title at 160 pounds. It's a goal that's not without sacrifice.
"During wrestling season, my social life is kind of on hiatus," he said, adding that he's dropped other sports over the years to focus solely on wrestling. "It is hard, especially this year, because of my tough schedule. "...I'm pushing through, seeing the light at the end of the tunnel."
"He's got a plan and he's sticking to it," Salinas said.

Project Web App empowers a mobile workforce by bringing the power of Microsoft Project Professional to the browser with web-based project scheduling via the Schedule WebPart. Web-based scheduling provides occasional and certified project managers with the flexibility to quickly build simple and complex schedules online, and conveniently edit the plan via the browser from anywhere in the world. Today we'll discuss some of the improvements to the Schedule WebPart and the new server scheduling engine in Project Web App (PWA) 2013.
Automatic Scheduling and Calculation
The biggest change to the Schedule WebPart is that it supports automatic calculation like Project Professional. You no longer have to press the Calculate button on the ribbon (which has been removed) or hit F9 on the keyboard to schedule your project. Now the whole project plan is scheduled after every edit, instead of only the current task.
Take for example the Contoso Launch project in the screenshot below. It's using a hybrid of manually scheduled and auto scheduled tasks. It also has a number of tasks linked, starting with 'Reserve Venue'.
If I change the duration of 'Reserve Venue' from 3 days to 13 days, you'll notice that my project is instantly scheduled to reflect the change and the affected cells have been highlighted.
Pro tip: When editing in the Schedule WebPart, it's often helpful to have the project take up the full width of your browser. As demonstrated above, SharePoint makes it really easy to accomplish this by hiding the quick launch and stretching the content of the page to fit the window. Simply click the 'Focus on Content' button next to 'Follow' in the quick actions. You can easily toggle back, whenever you're done editing.
Enabling automatic scheduling in the Schedule Webpart was made possible by bringing Project Professional's scheduling engine to the server. In previous versions of PWA, the web scheduling engine was a clone of Project Professional's scheduling engine. Now, it's the exact same calculation engine, guaranteeing consistent, high fidelity scheduling whether you edit in the Project client or on the web through PWA. To accomplish this engineering feat, we made a ton of investments into the performance and scalability of the scheduling engine, which greatly improved the speed of the editing experience in both Project Professional and PWA 2013.
When your boss asks how your project is doing compared to your original plan, the last thing you want to say is "I don't know." You can avoid that fate by setting and saving a baseline as a snapshot of your original schedule before your project gets rolling.
In previous releases, the ability to set and clear a baseline was only available in Microsoft Project Professional. Now that the Schedule Webpart is powered by the same scheduling engine as the client, setting and clearing Baselines are supported on the web as well.

Footage of Jay-Z taking the subway to his last show at Brooklyn's Barclays Center hit the Internet in October, but now new footage from the event has been released from Jay-Z's own cameras.
The video shows the rapper, surrounded by his bodyguards and fans, stepping into the R train as he takes a seat next to artist Ellen Grossman, 67, who didn't initially know who Jay-Z was.
"Are you famous?" Grossman asks Jay-Z. He responds, "Yes," but then he cheekily says, "Not very famous, you don't know me."
As they continue to talk, Grossman asks him what he does and also asks the rapper what his name is again, to which he responds with his full stage name - Jay-Z.
"Oh you're Jay-Z! I know about Jay-Z," she says.
Grossman told The Guardian, "We had such a nice conversation and then it became obvious during the conversation that he was very famous."
The exchange is part of a 24-minute video called "Where I'm From" that features behind-the-scenes footage of his opening concerts. The video was posted on Jay-Z's website Life + Times.

Auburn Hills, Mich. - Chrysler says its sales rose 11 percent last month, a sign that Americans continue to buy cars and trucks despite economic uncertainty.
The Detroit automaker says it sold nearly 157,000 cars and trucks last month in the U.S., its best April since 2007.
"Chrysler Group's best April sales in six years helped to maintain our sales momentum and drove us to our 37th-consecutive month of year-over-year sales gains," said Reid Bigland, Head of U.S. Sales. "Our sales last month were solid across the board with seven Chrysler Group vehicles recording their best April sales ever."
The Jeep®, Dodge, Ram Truck and FIAT brands each posted year-over-year sales gains in April compared with the same month a year ago.
The Ram Truck brand's 49 percent increase was the largest sales gain of any Chrysler Group brand in April. Chrysler Group extended its streak of year-over-year sales gains to 37-consecutive months in April.
The Dodge Durango's 65 percent sales increase was the largest sales gain of any Dodge brand vehicle in April and second only to the Ram Cargo Van's 110 percent sales gain among Chrysler Group vehicles. Jeep brand sales rebounded in April as all Jeep brand models except Jeep Liberty, which is no longer in production, posted sales gains last month.
Sales of the flagship Jeep Grand Cherokee were up 27 percent in April compared with the same month a year ago, its best April sales in eight years.
Seven Chrysler Group vehicles set sales records in the month of April. The Jeep Compass compact SUV and the Jeep Wrangler each logged their best April sales ever, as did the Dodge Challenger, Dodge Journey, Fiat 500, and Ram Cargo Van. The all-new Dodge Dart compact car had its best sales month since the vehicle was launched in June last year.
Chrysler Group finished the month with a 66-days supply of inventory (415,019 units). U.S. industry sales figures for April are projected at an estimated 15.4 million.

Florida State regained control of its ACC destiny, then disposed of the Duke Blue Devils 48-7 at Doak Campbell Stadium on Saturday.
On the same day it regained control of the ACC Atlantic with a North Carolina win over North Carolina State, FSU took control of the Blue Devils with a dominating first half.
EJ Manuel connected with Rashad Greene for a 71-yard touchdown on the Seminoles' opening possession as they never looked back. FSU (8-1, 5-1 ACC) took a 31-7 lead into the half as Manuel also connected on completions of 52 and 34 yards in the first half to set up a pair of rushing touchdowns.
"Loved the way we came out of the gates," said head coach Jimbo Fisher. "Played very well early, offensively, defensively, special teams. Established a tempo in the game, really through the first drives through to the second half. Came out and bang bang."
Duke's (6-3, 3-2 ACC) passing attack, which ranked second in the ACC entering Saturday with an average of 289 yards per game, couldn't get anything going. Redshirt senior quarterback Sean Renfree was just 13 of 21 for 92 yards before leaving the game with a concussion. Backup Anthony Boone wasn't able to do much either finishing the game 3 of 15 for 37 yards.
Wide receiver Conner Vernon, who needed just 93 yards to become the ACC's All-time leading receiver, finished with just three receptions for 12 yards.
"These guys came in second in the ACC, number one in their division, so we challenged ourselves," said FSU safety Lamarcus Joyner. "Those guys felt like they could compete with us and they've got a great team. To shut out that kind of offense with the players they have, and the coaching and the system they run, it shows you about this organization and how good we can be as a team."
Cornellius Carradine was a big factor in the Blue Devils passing game struggles as he recorded five tackles and four quarterback hurries as he punished Renfree a number of times just as he let go of the ball.
The Blue Devils' lone touchdown came on a three-yard run byJela Duncan on a drive that was prolonged by two separate FSU personal foul penalties. Duke finished with just 103 yards rushing on 33 attempts in the game, and 232 yards of total offense.
"Stopping the run was the key," Fisher said. "Stopping the run and then getting pressure. Making it third-and-9, third-and-8, not having the nickel and dime things and getting to them."
After Greene's long touchdown catch on the opening possession, FSU found the endzone again on a 75-yard punt return for a touchdown by new starting punt returner Tyler Hunter. FSU took full control of the game after a 52-yard reception by Rodney Smith setup a James Wilder touchdown run for a 24-0 lead with 13:50 left in the half.
FSU started the second half off with a two-play, 29-yard scoring drive, capped off by a 14-yard Devonta Freeman run. The short field was set up by a failed onside kick attempt by the Blue Devils out of the half. FSU scored on its next possession of the half as Manuel hit Kelvin Benjamin for a 35-yards score.
Manuel finished the game just 8 of 16, but had 282 yards passing and a pair of touchdowns. On the ground Freeman led the way with 104 yards and two TDs on 12 carries, and Wilder Jr. had 70 yards and a score on 13 attempts.
FSU finished the game with 560 yards of total offense, but the second half was marred a bit by three lost fumbles. First Hunter dropped a punt at his own 22, which lead a missed Duke field goal. On the ensuing possession Smith fumbled the ball after a 36-yard reception, and after a punt Freeman followed with a fumble of his own.
Fisher vowed to get the turnovers fixed during next week's bye week, but was pleased overall with how his team put the Blue Devils away on Saturday.
"They stayed on it," Fisher said. "Very proud of the offense, came out the first two drives (of the second half) and bang, bang, two quick scores and then the defense got three-and-outs."

San Diego County is a hotspot of biological diversity, species endangerment, and conservation planning. Mammals, however, have been somewhat underrepresented in San Diego's innovative conservation plans, partly because of spotty information on the distribution, ecology, and conservation status of our local mammal species. The San Diego County Mammal Atlas is a highly collaborative effort to fill these data gaps. It will serve as a companion to the recently completed San Diego County Bird Atlas and the San Diego County Plant Atlas.
To date we have built a GIS database of over 30,000 mammal-occurrence records for about 100 species from numerous existing information sources and new field surveys.
We reviewed the accuracy and precision of existing location records to ensure their utility for mapping species distributions at a fairly fine resolution (tens or hundreds of meters). We are also testing a variety of techniques for modeling species habitat associations and geographic distributions in the county, using such environmental variables as vegetation, soils, elevation, and climate. Final range maps will depict both known and expected species distributions, and in some cases historic versus current distributions.
Focused field surveys are used to validate predicted distributions and to fill gaps in previous survey efforts.
Other surveys test particular questions of interest to conservation planners and land managers, such as effects of major wildfires on mammal populations and locations of species concentrations, migration routes, or other high-priority conservation areas.
The maps and other information are being collated into a book and CD on the ecology, natural history, behavior, distribution, and conservation and management needs of mammal species in San Diego County. Other chapters describe methods for observing, studying, and monitoring mammal populations, and recommendations for improving conservation and land management efforts for mammals in this remarkable biotic region.

It was a beautiful April day for a walk-a-thon, and students at Sherwood Elementary School made the most of it.
School students took part a recent fundraiser Hop-a-Thon that raised more than $2,000 for the school and will fund class field trips to the Marin Headlands and the Observatory Surgery Center in Ukiah.
The ultimate goal was 50 laps around Stella's Field. Seven of the students made it the whole way, with plenty of encouragement and support from fellow classmates and, of course, Sherwood's prolific cats.
Instructor Sarah Gijon supplied the students with water and a healthy trail mix snack, which they made in her garden nutrition class.
Sherwood School extends its thanks to Sherwood families and friends, for supporting the students. Derek and Gianni Nelson's uncle, Abe Cordova-Nelson, and Nora Martin's grandparents, Sharon and Duane Brown, gave generously to the cause.

The Mendocino High School bell rang as usual at 9:25 a.m. last Wednesday, March 27. The sounds of kids preparing to move from one class to another could be heard outside the hilltop building.
But, instead of heading to their next class, the students were guided outside toward Kasten Street. Confusion, surprise and other emotions was visible as they walked into view of the head-on collision at the bottom of the hill, where fellow student Bodhi Walker-Heubel had been ejected behind a vehicle. He had died instantly.
This gruesome scene was staged, the result of five months of planning for the program called "Every 15 Minutes." The cause of the mock crash was a drunk driver, played by student Marianna Cooper.
As the initial shock changed to realization that they were looking at a dramatization, the students filed into bleacher seats. The sobbing of fellow classmates inside the two vehicles and the Grim Reaper, played by Walt Dooley, hovering around the scene captivated everyone's attention.
A 911 call played over loud speakers; someone reported the crash. Moments later, sirens were heard as Mendocino Volunteer Fire Department firefighters arrived, followed by California Highway Patrol officers, Mendocino Coast EMTs and ambulance service.
The entire incident unfolded before about 200 students, just as it would had the collision been real.
After the incident, the six students involved and 13 others who were taken from their classes during the remainder of the day went to St. Anthony's Church, then to the Mendocino Christian Camp near Albion overnight. They were not allowed to text or talk to anyone, family included, for the remainder of the two-day event.
The reason for the isolation is to show everyone the large impact loss of a life has on family, friends and the community. During the camp, students were asked to reflect on what they had been through and to write letters to their parents, or people closest to them, saying what they hadn't had a chance to say in life.
On Thursday there was an assembly where some of the students read their letters. A few parents did the same. Guest speakers Vickie Marvella and Chamberlain Creek CC Inmate #F69449 shared their stories of lifelong trouble with alcohol. CHP Officer Steve Krul officiated.
Two coffins represented Walker-Heubel, who died on scene, and David Horner, who later died in the hospital. During the mock trial, "Judge" Mark Kalina, a local attorney, sentenced Cooper to 10 years in state prison for the two lives she took in the staged crash.
At the end of the assembly, Principal Gail Dickenson released the "walking dead" students who rejoined family. In every hug, there was an added squeeze in the embrace, clearly visible to any observer, that extra grip in the hand hold that says, "I'm not ready to let go."
Hopefully, if the message sank in, none of these students will have to experience this in the real world, where the dead are not released back to society for a "do-over."
The program
"Every 15 minutes" is a federal program designed to show students about the powerful consequences of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Recently, the program has been expanded to include texting while driving as part of the warning.
A committee of 13 people, led by volunteer firefighter Dirk Dooley, spent five months planning and preparing for this event. The committee consisted of fellow firefighters, CHP and Sheriff's officers, parents, high school staff and students.
When the program began in the 1990s, the amount of people who died each year due to alcohol related crashes was equivalent to someone dying every 15 minutes, hence the program name.
According to a 2008 traffic safety report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's National Center for Statistics and Analysis, the rate of fatalities caused from alcohol-impaired driving is now closer to 1 in every 45 minutes. In California 1,029 of the 3,434 collision fatalities in 2008 were due to alcohol-impaired driving, roughly 30 percent. It is believed that the combined awareness resulted from this program, Mothers Against Drunk Driving and many other programs, has helped reduced the statistic.
However, as that statistic falls, another statistic is rising the amount of crashes caused by people texting while driving. Many officials believe it is quickly becoming as prevalent a problem as driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Texting has now been included as part of the federal programs message and some areas have texting as a cause of the collision instead of drugs or alcohol.
Now there is a statewide effort to "crackdown" on distracted driving, and as part of April as Distracted Driving Month officers will have "no tolerance" for those caught texting and driving. Fines begin around $160.

Many people have asked about the meaning of our name. 'Baidu' was inspired by a poem written more than 800 years ago during the Song Dynasty. The poem compared the search for a retreating beauty amid chaotic glamour with the search for one's dream while confronted by life's many obstacles. '...hundreds and thousands of times, for her I searched in chaos, suddenly, I turned by chance, to where the lights were waning, and there she stood.' (Chinese: 众里寻他千百度,蓦然回首,那人却在灯火阑珊处;) Baidu, whose literal meaning is hundreds of times, represents persistent search for the ideal.
