LHC Sends Supersymmetry "To the Hospital" By Observing Bizarre Meson Decay

Physicists may need new theories to explain how dark matter works
Supersymmetry, or SUSY for short, has been a popular physics theory used to explain away quirks in the Standard Model. But recent findings from
's Large Hadron Collider cast serious doubts on traditional SUSY theory, sending physicists back to the drawing board.
I. Dark Matter -- Does SUSY Offer an Explanation?
When it comes to SUSY, the theory began with a fundamental question -- why were galaxies spinning so fast?
Physicists in the 1900s began to predict the mass of galaxies based on the light of stars within. What they found was surprising -- the galaxies were spinning faster than they would be if merely adhering to a vanilla version of the Standard Model.
So physicists theorized that the galaxies contained large amounts of so-called "
dark matter
". This type of matter is thought to behave in fundamentally different ways from standard matter. The question facing physicists was how
dark matter behave; physicists sought to solve that question with the theory of super-symmetry, a theory which grew increasingly popular in the particle physics world over the years, spawning several variants.
SUSY is a leading theory to explain the existence of dark matter. [Image Source: NASA]
Under one version of the theory -- the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model or MSSM for short -- physicists Howard Georgi (Harvard University) and Savas Dimopoulos (Stanford University) proposed that dark matter consisted of super-particles of masses between 100 GeV and 1 TeV.
The question was how to observe the presence or lack of these high-energy super-particles. At the time (the 1980s), no particle collider was powerful and sensitive enough to create and detect such pairs. Then the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) came along.
II. Signs Point to Many SUSY Models Being Flat-Out Wrong
While the LHC is best known for the
Higgs boson hunt
(scientists currently
think they
have observed signs
of this much-sought-after particle), the LHC is powerful enough to probe other major unconfirmed physics theories.
SUSY is a perfect example.
The LHC has seven built in particle detectors. These include flashy detectors like ATLAS and CMS, which have been used in the Higgs boson hunt.
Many popular version of SUSY predict that the "strange" B-meson -- a short-lived 0.5 TeV (in mass) particle that oscillates between a matter and antimater state -- will decay to muons at a far greater rate than the extremely low rate predicted by the vanilla Standard Model. The source of this shift stems from decay loops such as the chargino and Charged Higgs boson, which SUSY predicts [
] will enhance muon decay rates, by about an order of magnitude.
But it turns out the decay was not as frequent as SUSY expected.
Bs mu-mu decays occur less frequently than SUSY generally predicts. [Image Source: CERN]
Most detectors failed to observe that kind of decay at all. And when the LHCb detector finally did spot it, it estimated that only three out of every billion decay results in muon production.
III. Door Opens to New Theories
This at first blush seems an intuitive conclusion -- it would indeed seem odd that the mid-size meson would produce the relatively massive muons on a frequent basis. But the result does raise major questions -- if SUSY is wrong, what is dark matter made of?
An important thing to note is that while CERN physicists say the new data "squeezes" super-symmetry models, it does not say it invalidates all of them. For example the so-called AKM model -- theorized by professors Ambrosanio, Kane, Kribs, Martin and Mrenna -- appears to encompass the results in its fringe reaches.
As Prof. Chris Parkes
describes to
BBC News
, "Supersymmetry may not be dead but these latest results have certainly put it into hospital."
The observation pushes SUSY to its fringes, raising questions of its validity.
[Image Source: CERN]
Even if the AKM model can accomodate the new results, the fact that they blow up many alternate SUSY models (most of which have over 100 fittable parameters) opens the door to fundamentally different solutions than SUSY to try to explain away symmetry violations.
In other words, the possible fall of SUSY sets the stage for a renaissance of new theory, the kind that equally delights physicists and gives the average member of the public at large a painful headache.

[T]he opponents of McCain-Feingold launched a series of legal attacks that met with little success until 2007, when the Court ruled in FEC v. Wisconsin Right to Life. In that decision, the justices ruled unconstitutional the law's proscription against campaign ads mentioning candidates by name within a certain period prior to an election. Then, in 2008, the Court voided another crucial provision in Davis v. FEC. Finally, in early 2010, the Court delivered the coup de gras with its landmark ruling in Citizens United v. FEC.
Are the legal foes of Obamacare as numerous and determined as those of McCain-Feingold? The answer to that question is an unequivocal YES. Their numbers are greater, they are far better financed and they are demonstrably more dedicated to the cause. In fact, the dragon's teeth sown by the Court's misguided June ruling produced a spate of fresh troops to reinforce those already on the legal battlefield. There are now at least forty legal challenges to the law pending in federal courts involving its various provisions as well as its implementation.
Moreover, the Court just resurrected one of the original challenges to Obamacare by ordering the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals to reconsider arguments on which it didn't deign to rule in Liberty University v. Geithner last year. The Fourth Circuit's pretext for not ruling on the University's claims was that the federal Anti-Injunction Act (AIA) barred the Appeals Court from ruling on the mandate. The Supreme Court's June ruling, however, held that the AIA doesn't apply. Thus, the Appeals Court must give Liberty another hearing.

Searching for Trinity Witnesses and their Survivors
By Cameron Reed
I am attempting to compile a list of witnesses to the July, 1945, Trinity test conducted at Alamogordo, New Mexico. While a number of descriptions of the test have been published by individuals who were already famous or who would become so after the war, a list of personnel given in Kenneth Bainbridge's 1946 report on the test indicates that it may have been witnessed by some 300 people altogether, with the vast majority being lower-echelon scientific, technical, and military personnel. If you are a Trinity witness or a colleague or family member of a witness, I would very much appreciate hearing from you. Where were you (or your colleague/family member) stationed during the test? Do you have any descriptive material or reminiscences you would be willing to share? Please contact Dr. Cameron Reed, Department of Physics, Alma College, Alma, MI 48801; e-mail: email@example.com

Which parish (and archives) to search?
4 comments:
Thank you for starting this blog. My husband's paternal grandfather (Petranek) is from Velim/Kolin, and his paternal grandmother (Mlynar) is from Pecin/Rychnov nad Kneznou. With the excellent assistance of my husband's cousin, we have found thousands of records for the Mlynar line in the Zamrsk Archives. We are in the process of extracting information and compiling our family tree. I look forward to your future posts.ReplyDelete
Does this include Wildstein? I am very new to this..........thank you.ReplyDelete
Hi Dolores, I suppose Wildstein is Skalná in Czech (see map: http://mapy.cz/#x=12.412087&y=50.170554&z=10 ). It is parish Skalná, which belongs under Pilsen archives. Unfortunately this parish is not yet available online.ReplyDelete
Hi Blanka,ReplyDelete
I am intriqued by your blog, and also confused...not too sure where I am to search for Josef Kepka from Dirka Mill. Can you give me some suggestions on that? I may not be able to do the searching as is explained in your blog.
Thank you for all of your research for our Kepka line. I highly recommend anyone that is in need of a genealogist to contact you. Again, thank you so much.

While visiting home before Christmas in Western PA, I always make a stop to legendary Kennywood Park. Until this December, past visits basically included walking around the park, bothering the owners and managers, and seeing what is underway for the next season.
However, for the first time ever, we saw 'Holiday Lights at Kennywood'. One million lights greet guests, who have been coming here since 1898. The arcade, located on the park's oldest midway, is now home to a photo stop with park mascot, Kenny Kangaroo, and a special area for children (and adults) to write Letters to Santa. Inside the classic Racer coaster station, photos with Santa Claus are available in a Santa-sized coaster car!
Kennywood was careful to open some rides that families will love. The beautiful 1927 Merry Go Round is re-lit in red and green, playing faithful holiday tunes, and the nearby Paratrooper, Kangaroo (yes, that's the name) Cosmic Chaos, and the Grand Prix (bumper cars). Overlooking the Monongahela River, guests can ride the one of a kind Auto Race and have a cookie of a time on the Gingerbread Express, which in the summer is the Old Kennywood Railroad. Kiddieland is open with 10 rides including the Lil Phantom coaster.
Inside the park's giant dining room, guests can warm up and decorate their own cookies, listen to live Choir singers, and explore a massive Lionel train layout with boxcars and scenes from legendary Pittsburgh institutions like Heinz, Isaly's and the Steelers. Several retail shops are selling official park logo merchandise ranging from much needed sweatshirts to exclusive Linda Barnicott artwork featuring scenes from Kennywood and surrounding Pittsburgh landmarks.
If you like Christmas music (and I do) you can stroll around the park and hear classic tunes, and along the lake there is a show at regular intervals that features lights that blink and dance in sync. A petting zoo in Kiddieland contains all the stable animals including camels. Remember those one million lights? This classic amusement park is known for large stately trees, and Kennywood has wrapped them in LED lights that create an incredible atmosphere in this National Historical Landmark.

Did You Know?
It takes 3 of our keepers to lift our powerful Burmese Python.
Many of us have watched, heart broken over the images from the Gulf oil spill. The numbers of affected animals and the spoiled beaches and wetlands have been catastrophic. Then tragedy struck here with the worst Midwest oil spill occurring in Kalamazoo.
Obviously being an animal lover, this was very sad to me as well and I wanted to figure out a way to volunteer. The opportunity came when I was contacted by the Michigan Veterinary Corp to respond. I brought along with me several additional helpers from the zoo including our great Vet Tech Deb, Zookeeper Heather and some of our veterinary and zookeeper interns. We went to assist the people already involved in the process, including our fabulous colleagues from Binder Park Zoo, who have been extensively involved with this from the start.
I have seen quite a few things working with wildlife and zoo animals including diseases ranging from minor to fatal. None of this prepared me for the images that I was about to see at the wildlife center in Kalamazoo. There were geese and swans so caked in oil crude that there was no way I could have told you what they were just by looking at them. And birds weren't the only victims of this event! Map turtles, painted turtles, soft shells, even snapping turtles were all affected as well.
Our jobs of the day were to provide medical treatments to 15 of these turtles. Each one, even though it had already been cleaned, still had oil crude in crevices and clinging to their shells. This is not to say that they weren't cleaned properly, they were, but that it is that hard to get the oil crude off and there is only so long that you can wash a turtle, or any animal, before it gets too stressed out or you start to damage their skin from the cleaning process. Even more shocking was that oil was also in their mouths, which makes sense, living in the water, but that was probably what depressed me the most. We cleaned out their mouths, treated them medically and had them put on the list to be re-cleaned.
That was last week, now by this week, there are many turtles that are doing much better and have no evidence of the oil they once had. Several are even scheduled to be re-released to a new site that is clear of oil in the vicinity of their previous homes. This is of course what we hope to accomplish with all of the turtles overall, but the process has only just begun and will likely be continuing for quite some time.
When I first began treating these animals I was told that this process is a "marathon" not a "sprint" - I now understand why.

Poets, musicians and performers will take the stage across the Springfield-Greene County Library District next week in celebration of the 21st National African American Read-In Chain – a first for Springfield.
Patrons can choose from more than 10 free events at various branches, from Storytimes for little ones, to poetry readings, to live jazz to podcasts with author Walter Dean Myers (3:30 p.m. Feb. 22 at the Republic Branch Library).
The national Read-In began in 1990 as a way to promote reading and literacy, celebrate African-American authors and build a community of readers. Since then, more than one million readers of all ethnic groups from 49 states, the West Indies and African countries have participated. The U.S. goal is to make the celebration of African-American literacy a traditional part of the February Black History Month activities.
After a small pilot in 2009 sponsored by Drury University, Springfield launched its first citywide Read-In this year. It's a perfect fit for the library district, in partnership with the NAACP Springfield Branch, Drury, Missouri State University and Springfield Public Schools. The national sponsor is the National Council of Teachers of English.
"Springfield is blessed to have so many talented poets and performers, and we are excited to showcase them in this important event," says Grace Jackson-Brown, chair of the local Read-In committee. She is an MSU library science assistant professor.
"The audience is sure to learn things about African-American heritage from this performance — and to thoroughly enjoy the evening as well."
Most programs are planned Feb. 20 through 23; find all of them at thelibrary.org/programs, or see the print or online Bookends magazine. All events are free and open to all ages.
Don't miss the theatrical program, "The Rhythm is Keeping Us Alive," a commemoration of African-American heritage, from 7:30 to 9 p.m. on Feb. 22 at the Library Center. Jon Herbert, theater arts instructor at Ozarks Technical Community College, will direct the performances.
Here's a sample of others:
Kathleen O'Dell is community relations director of the Springfield-Greene County Library District. She can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms, Balsamic, and Parmesan
(Makes 4-6 servings, recipe created by Kalyn)
8 oz. mushrooms, sliced in 1/2 inch slices (I used brown Cremini mushrooms, but any mushrooms will work)
1 lb. fresh green beans, preferably thin French style beans
1 1/2 T olive oil
1 T balsamic vinegar
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
2 T finely grated parmesan cheese
Wash mushrooms and let drain (or spin dry in salad spinner, which is what I did.) While mushrooms are drying, trim ends of beans and cut beans in half so you have bite-sized pieces. (An easy way to trim them is to gather a small handful of beans, stand them up on cutting board, holding loosely so they will fall down and have ends ends aligned, then trim. Repeat with other end.) Cut mushrooms into slices 1/2 inch thick.
Put cut beans and mushrooms into a Ziploc bag or plastic bowl. Whisk together olive oil and balsamic vinegar and pour over, then squeeze bag or stir so all the beans and mushrooms are lightly coated with the mixture. Arrange on large cookie sheet, spreading them out well so beans and mushrooms are not crowded.
Roast 20-30 minutes, starting to check for doneness after 20 minutes. Cook until beans are tender-crisp, mushrooms are cooked, and all liquid on the pan from mushrooms has evaporated. Season beans to taste with salt and fresh ground pepper, then sprinkle with finely grated Parmesan. Serve hot.

By CLIFF BRUNT
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The Indiana Pacers ended this past season as one of just two teams without an international player.
But as they head into Tuesday's NBA draft, even the Pacers are looking overseas. Larry Bird, the team's president of basketball operations, says Indiana is not focusing on a specific position but is looking for someone who can help.
The Pacers, who have the 17th pick, have their sights on players including Roko Ukic, a guard from Croatia; Yaroslav Korolev, a forward from Russia, and Fran Vazquez, a forward-center from Spain. But they could have plenty of competition.
The number of international players on opening-day rosters in the NBA has risen from 29 in 1997 to 81 this past season. There were 20 foreign players drafted last year, compared with nine in 1999 and three in 1994. This year, a record seven international players competed in the NBA Finals.
With players such as Germany's Dirk Nowitzki, Serbia-Montenegro's Peja Stojakovic, former rookie of the year Pau Gasol of Spain, three-time All-Star Yao Ming of China and Russia's Andrei Kirilenko making immediate impacts, teams say they can't afford to overlook overseas players.
"Everybody's so afraid of missing out on the next one," said new Cleveland coach Mike Brown, a former Pacers assistant who inherits All-Star center Zydrunas Ilgauskas of Lithuania with the Cavaliers.
This past season was a banner year for international players. The league MVP, Steve Nash of the Phoenix Suns, hails from Canada. Nowitzki finished third in the MVP voting after a dominant season for the Dallas Mavericks. The San Antonio Spurs start three players born outside the continental U.S. - Tim Duncan of the U.S. Virgin Islands, Manu Ginobili of Argentina and Tony Parker of France.
That level of foreign participation was unheard of 25 years ago. When Bird was a rookie for the Boston Celtics in 1979, there were six international players in the league.
Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh said much has changed in his 19 years at the team's helm.
"I think we always looked, but not to the extent we do now," Walsh said. "But we were always familiar with the European market."
International players can warm a bench as they gain experience - or change a franchise.
Before Gasol arrived in Memphis in 2001, the Grizzlies never had been to the playoffs. Gasol averaged 17.6 points a game and was the league's top rookie despite his team's 23-59 record. He averaged 19 points a game his second year as Memphis won five more games.
The Grizzlies went 50-32 in Gasol's third year and made the playoffs for the first time in franchise history.
That's the kind of player NBA scouts can't afford to miss.
Joe Ash, the Pacers' director of scouting, already has made five trips to Europe this year, including three with Bird. In July, Ash will travel to Moscow for a European 20-and-under tournament to see players from 16 countries, then head to Argentina for the FIBA World Championships for Young Men.
The Pacers employ two foreign-born scouts. Nedilijko "Misho" Ostarcevic is from Croatia and splits his time between Europe and the western United States. Alexsandar Pajovic has a home in Belgrade, Serbia-Montenegro, and spends much of his time scouting European basketball.
They meet plenty of NBA colleagues at every stop.
Ash said he sees as many scouts at European tournaments as at major college games in the United States. He said more than 50 NBA representatives attended the Euroleague Final Four May 6-8 in Moscow.
"These guys aren't coming out of nowhere anymore," Indiana coach Rick Carlisle said. "People know who the good people are, what teams they're on, what their contract situations are."
The Pacers have plenty of experience with foreign talent. Center Rik Smits of the Netherlands, who played from 1988-2000, is the franchise's second-leading scorer. Detlef Schrempf, a forward from Germany, ranks 10th in career scoring after playing for Indiana from 1988-1993.
Indiana would have had a foreign player last season if it hadn't lost Slovenia's Primoz Brezec to Charlotte in the expansion draft. The 7-foot-1 center averaged a career-high 13 points per game for the Bobcats.
The Pacers liked Beno Udrih in the draft last year, but the Spurs - a team Cleveland's Brown calls the league's best at snapping up international talent - nabbed the Slovenian one pick before the Pacers could get him.
Ash said scouting foreign talent is a necessity, not an option.
"You have to," he said. "Not going would just be ignoring a large segment of the talent pool."

Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Age Shield Sunblock Reviews
Not as good as Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch SunblockThis is a decent sunblock, but before use it, shake it well. I opened it and did not use it for two weeks, and then, when I wanted to use it again, all the slimey liquid substance came. If you don't shake well, the cream becomes lumpy.

The BESTThis is by far the best face sunscreen you can find. Smooth, non-irritating, great coverage! I am in the sun everyday and it protects! — 8 years, 4 months agooctoberelise | 25 reviews

Neutrogena Age Shield WorksThis is a very good sunblock. Does not leave a greasy residue on your skin and last through the day. Also, very easy and quick to rub in which is great when you are getting several children ready and yourself. — 8 years, 5 months agoleslie05 | 1 reviews
Is this the same stuff as the product shown (Neutrogena Age Shield)?If it is, I have to say that the Neutrogena Age Shield 45 made my face break out, which was really disappointing. I have dry skin as well. The product also separated, with lots of oil coming out first, even if you shook the tube. — 8 years, 9 months agofuzzyjelbud | 12 reviews

Yes, the Heat are the champs until someone else wins in the finals.
But I'd rather be the team forcing them to work at keeping it than to be just another speed bump.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Or throw in a first-round pick and flip it for a max-level point guard...
When the Colts won the SuperBowl, they were defending champs. nothing more nothing less. only defending the crown (or belt if you prefer). Heat are defending a crown this season, that does not mean they are the best team. Much like the Colts were not the best team the following year.
Both the Heat and Pacers will improve as the season goes on. No one is crowning a team champion in November, way to much can happen between now and then. Other teams will improve in the east also like Brooklyn, Chicago.
on paper at full strength I believe the Pacers are one of only a few teams that can a win a crown this year. As of right now the Pacers are not exactly at full strength. Grangers return if healthy makes the Pacers the better TEAM.
I hope to see MIA in the playoffs, preferable ECF. Bron, Wade will be forced to play 48 minutes every game. No way MIA can stack up with our depth. If Wade is less than 75-80% I don't believe Bron get beat the Pacers 4 games by himself.
Way to early to even think about really. like another poster stated above, we as Pacers fans need to just enjoy the ride. Who knows what Legend may do at the trade deadline. As of right now, don't care one bit about the Heat. Pacers need to get Granger back and integrated with the offense.
as Hicks said.
We will find out. its gonna be fun season.
For once I actually agree with Slick Pinkham on something.
The Heat are the odds-on favorites, and have earned a certain amount of respect for being not just last year's champion, but the previous year's as well.
Here's the thing, though: Neither of those past championships logically entail that Miami is the best team this year.
Are they the team to beat? Sure.
Are they the best team in the league? That remains to be seen. All we can say for certain is that they have a proven track record, but a proven track record only proves past accomplishments, not current and future accomplishments.
If people like KStat want to let bumper sticker-like cliches do their thinking for them, so be it. I'll stick to logic.
When the Colts won that Super Bowl, it was the first one they had made it to. That's a big difference than the Heat, who have made the Finals three straight years and have won two straight. Also, the NFL has way more of an unpredictability factor to it because of the one and done format. The NBA is way different because you have to beat a team 4 out of 7 times. That's tough to do when the opponent has one of the greatest players in league history who happens to be in his prime.
We can win more games this season than the Heat. We can win the season series against them like we did last year. We can top them in "expert" power rankings. But we're not going to be a better team than them until we prove on the court that we can eliminate them 4 out of 7 times when the stakes are highest. We all hate Miami, but they are at the top of the mountain and it's going to have to be taken away from them.
I agree with you that we need to just enjoy the ride. This Pacer team obviously has a nice chance to win it all.
If you prove you're the better team by beating someone, doesn't that mean you were the better team before you beat them, logically?
I don't think so. A lot of the time I think it's more the old cliche, 'Any given Sunday,' or the other cliche, 'the best team doesn't always win.' In other words the best team usually wins, but not always.
What mucks up the odds and confounds the experts and the pro gamblers is the 'never say die' ' Miracle on Ice,' human spirit. The fact is you can be the overwhelming best and still not win a given contest, or even a given series, because the other guy or team just refuses to lose.
And sometimes a match is so dead even that who wins depends on who gets the last shot. Other times it's who's 'hot' at the given moment.
I was thinking of a playoff series rather than one game.
It's convention nowadays to say whoever wins is the best, and often that's true, but even winning a championship doesn't always prove you are the best.
Have you ever beaten someone you know is better than you at something, it happens all the time.
spolstera can lick it. so can riley.
did anyone else see the halftime feature Saturday night on Scola. He was asked why he wanted to come to the pacers and he told a story about he and his son watching the Pacers vs Heat in the ECF. He said before the series he expected the heat to win, but it became clear to him that the Pacers were a better "team" and that was when he decided he wanted to play here
Scola is a bad ***!!!
Being unable to close out a game in which you have a comfortable lead in the 4th Q = Pulling a Frank Vogel
History, baby. No one is a '13/'14 champ as of now, and there's no reason to be concerned about it. The Pacers are doing their job (winning games) while the Heat are not (4-3, with all 3 losses baaaddd).
Personally, I wish the Heat were coasting. The best way to beat this team is by getting the #1 seed, and the best chance of that happening is Miami getting apathetic. Unfortunately, they're getting an early wake-up call that they can't expect to waltz to the title.
Regardless...I'm concerned about winning right now. The playoffs will be here way too soon regardless

Reds' success on the field fills seats at Ball Park
CINCINNATI -- For the third straight game, the Reds and Cubs played in front of a sold-out crowd on Sunday at Great American Ball Park, marking the first time Cincinnati sold out an entire series since 2010.
Prior to this weekend, the Reds had just two sellouts this season, with one of them coming on Opening Day. But now Cincinnati is one of the hottest teams in baseball, and manager Dusty Baker thinks the fans have taken notice.
"We're happy because we're not only packing the house, but we're winning at the same time," Baker said. "It's very disappointing to not win at home. Both ways are disappointing -- home and road -- but it's more disappointing when you're losing in front of home fans.
"So far we've done a pretty good job of winning at home."
The Reds entered Sunday with an 18-6 record at Great American Ball Park this season, tying them with San Francisco and Pittsburgh for the most home wins in the Major Leagues. They also began the day in second place in the National League for runs scored at 237.
The sellout crowds coming with the Cubs in town is particularly significant, as Baker said Chicago fans used to drown out the hometown cheers. That has not been the case this weekend.
"They don't stand out as much, because there's so many of our fans," Baker said. "Before, they stood out. They were probably half the fans at one time, and especially with the sea of blue over the dugout."
Including this weekend, the Reds have a 7-1 home series record in 2013, and they'll look for their third three-game sweep of the year at Great American Ball Park on Sunday. Brandon Phillips said the fans deserve a little credit for that success.
"We feed off those guys," Phillips said. "It's like motivation, especially when we're down, or when we're up and we can still just keep on beating a team. We get momentum off our fans."

In today's Dallas Voice, I wrote an article about the unofficial Target boycott.
I'm not boycotting, but I haven't been shopping there either, at least until something is resolved.
Yes, the president of the company apologized, but no, he didn't do anything to show his remorse. The fact that he just hired right-wing Sen. John Thune's former chief of staff said to me that the donation and sudden sharp turn to the right was intentional.
While researching the story, I stopped by Target in Oak Lawn. In the article I wrote:
Employees at Target at Cityplace refused to say whether or not their business has been affected but told this reporter to leave the store.
Here's what happened: I approached an employee who did not have any customers nearby. I identified myself as a reporter and said I was working on a story about the boycott of Target. I asked if she'd noticed any difference.
"You need to get out of here now," she said.
I thanked her and told her she would appear in the paper. And regardless of whether the boycott ends with a happy resolution, I probably won't be going back to Target anytime soon.
The incident was really no big deal, but it seemed to indicate how on edge everyone at Target is about the issue.
David Ethridge, a gay Dallas man who's been going after Target, had a lot more to say than what I included in the story.
"I've heard several people attempt to defend Target by pointing out its past benevolence to our community," Ethridge said.
"Here's the thing: I may help you move or give you a ride to the airport, but if I'm poisoning your tea behind your back, then I'm not your friend. What Target did was short-sighted and indefensible. Its leadership should act like adults, apologize, and make it right, so we can all go back about our business.
"Hundreds of thousands of people have pledged to take their fair-minded money elsewhere, but it's too early to know what impact that will have long-term. The biggest advantage that Target had over competitors Like Wal-Mart and Kmart was image. The company's image has been very carefully cultivated with millions of dollars in slick ads and designer collaborations over the years to appeal to a more style-conscious and progressive value shopper. The long-term detriment to the company may lie in the damage to that image.
"Effective social media is crucial to retailers in today's economy. Target's Facebook and Twitter pages have been a complete wreck for weeks, with customers screaming back-and-forth at each other. The company's consumer reviews on sites like Google Maps have taken a dive as well.
"Back-to-school is Target's second-busiest season. But instead of promoting those products, or their new collections from Shaun White and 'Punky Brewster,' they've been forced to constantly defend their political contributions. They have to ask themselves if this is all really worth some imagined benefit on a future tax form."
So what do you think? Are you boycotting? Waiting and seeing? Can't afford to shop elsewhere since Target generally has the lowest overall prices? Don't have patience to run all over town to other stores? Or is Target not that convenient to you anyway? And what about Best Buy? We don't shop there as often, but the LGBT community tends to be loyal Best Buy customers.
NOTE: I just got an e-mail from Paul Schmelzer, editor of the Minnesota Independent. I like to give credit when we know who to credit and Paul broke the story about Tom Emmer and his connection with Bradlee Dean and the Christian band You Can Run But You Cannot Hide. Dean's the one mentioned in the print article that thinks Muslims have it right with putting gays to death.

- BSO Case Number: PB13-01-6933
- PIO Number: 13-03-3
- Date: January 20, 2013
- Time: between 4:30 and 5:30 a.m.
- Place of Occurrence: 1800 block of Hammondville Road, Pompano Beach
- Jurisdiction: Pompano Beach
- Fernando Garnica, male, 37, 8/30/75, 2020 Hammondville Road, Pompano Beach (DECEASED)
- Alfredo Mariano, male, 17, 9/23/95, 828 NE 11th Ave. #1E, Pompano Beach (IN CUSTODY)
Description of Incident:
When the Broward Medical Examiner's Office notified BSO homicide detectives of a death on January 26, nearly a week had passed since the beating that caused it. After a lot of investigation and leg-work, the detectives were able to piece together what happened and who was responsible.
On Saturday, they arrested 17-year-old Alfredo Mariano of Pompano Beach on a first-degree, felony murder charge. Detectives believe that on the night of January 20, the teen offered to give 37-year-old Fernando Garnica and his roommate a ride. Sometime between 4:30 and 5:30 a.m., Mariano stopped to beat and rob the two men. He took cash and the roommate's Jeep Cherokee.
The two victims never called 911. Instead, they went home, where Garnica's injuries got worse for days. On January 25, the two men asked a friend to call 911 for medical help. Garnica died the next day at the hospital. Detectives believe the two victims, who are both in the country illegally from Mexico, feared possible legal trouble or deportation if they called authorities. That fear was unfounded.
Anyone with more information about this homicide can report it to Det. Kevin Forsberg at (954) 321-4210. To report an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers of Broward County, call 954-493-TIPS (8477) or visit www.BrowardCrimeStoppers.org online.

text: Stowers powers Sissonville past Herbert Hoover 27-20 By Doug Smock October 5, 2012 Story Share When Sissonville had to put away Herbert Hoover once and for all Friday night, the Indians pretty much turned the ball over to Trent Stowers and blocked for him.The Indians jumped out to a 21-0 lead and held on for a 27-20 victory on the Huskies' field in Falling Rock. In a game of long scoring plays, Stowers scored on a 60-yard run and a 35-yard pass from Austin Crawford.All told, Stowers ran for 155 yards on 18 carries and added 52 yards on four receptions. But his best work may have come in the final 2:59, when he helped the Indians (3-3) gain three first downs to run out the clock.He had six carries on an eight-play clock-eating drive, including gains of 3, 6, 7, 8 and 8 yards - unspectacular but effective. He made the Huskies key on him, allowing Crawford to pick up one first down with an 18-yard keeper around the end, and Jarrett Mowrer to pick up the Indians' 21st and final first down with a short gain.That snuffed out a spirited Hoover rally and pushed Sissonville's rushing total to 303 yards."Trent got injured in the Scott game [Sept. 14], and I felt like in practice he prepared and finally felt better," said Indians coach Eddie Smolder. "It showed tonight on a lot of his runs. He ran hard and played with heart. Overcoming an ankle injury's hard to do."Crawford went 9 of 12 for 120 yards and three touchdowns, also hitting Nathan Miller twice for scores. Miller caught five passes for 60 yards but could have had a 76-yard TD catch on the game's first scrimmage play. Wide open, he dropped it.That wasn't a problem, as his 19-yard TD catch finished an 11-play drive. Stowers had a 17-yard run on a third-and-5 to keep the drive alive.But Stowers' next run was the flashiest play of the night. Two plays after the Indians held Hoover on downs, Stowers hit a hole off right tackle, cut left and broke a few tackles, stiff-armed a pursuer and dived into the end zone for a 60-yard TD. After Tyler Shaffer's interception set up Stowers' 35-yard TD catch from Crawford, the Indians were up 21-0 early in the second quarter.The impending rout never materialized, even though Hoover was stopped on downs at the Indians' 23-yard line on its next possession. Then a defensive touchdown started the comeback. On third-and-4 at the Hoover 47, Crawford threw a swing pass to Dominic Walker, who couldn't hang on to it. He and players on both sides thought it was a forward pass and walked away, but the ball went backward and the officials remained silent. With prodding from the home crowd, Zane Weese picked up the waiting pigskin and ran it 43 yards for a touchdown.Hoover (1-5) hung on to keep the deficit at 21-7 at the half, and had the ball to start the second half. On the third play, Shaun Dotson blew up through the middle and kept going, scoring on a 59-yard run to make it 21-14.After an exchange of punts, the Indians took a two-score lead again with a 15-play, 81-yard drive that gobbled up 91/2 minutes. Stowers had six runs and one reception, but an 8-yard gain on fourth-and-2, on the first play of the fourth quarter, was especially critical. Crawford hooked up with Miller for a 12-yard TD and a 27-14 lead.Hoover answered with a 13-play, 82-yard drive with 12 runs and a single pass. Eventually, the Huskies simply fed fullback Tyler Hoffman eight times, gaining 44 yards and the final 5 for a TD. The extra point was missed, setting the score at 27-20.The big problem: The clock melted from 8:55 to 2:59 left. The Huskies opted to kick long for a touchback, but Stowers and Sissonville ran out the clock. Dotson ran for 133 yards and Hoffman added 61, most of Hoover's 212 rushing yards. The Huskies were outgained 423-273, but the halftime margin was 263-95."Our kids have played hard all year," said Hoover coach Tim Meyer. "They came out, they got up on us early and we struggled to come from behind."Reach Doug Smock at 304-348-5130, email@example.com or follow him at twitter.com/dougsmock.

Getting Greece Back on Its Feet
The process of repairing Greece's financial system continues. On Wednesday, a package of spending cuts squeaked through Greek Parliament, garnering 153 out of a possible 300 votes. Over the weekend, we learned that this same body passed an austerity-laden budget for 2013. Thus, two barriers were removed from the process of bailing out the troubled nation.
The next tranche of credit from the European Union (EU) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), worth $40 million USD, will be made available -- it's just a question of when. We already know that today's meeting of European area finance ministers will be inconclusive; the German Finance Ministry has already stated that there would be no deal today on Greece's bailout program....411 more words left in this article.

Top 10 Diva rivalries ever
by, 05-05-2012 at 03:23 PM (10035 Views)
A couple of weeks ago on this site, I read a blog about Divas asking for something different other than John Cena, Lesnar, and so forth blogs. I decided to do some research so I can create a positive blog on the Divas history in WWE. Go as far as best rivalries and matches/moments in the WWE history. A reminder, I'm not going to have men vs women rivalries on here such as Chyna vs Jarrett or Jericho isn't going to be on here. Chyna did have some defining moments in the divas division while in WWE being the first woman to compete in the Royal Rumble, only diva to hold the IC title, and being the only diva to be named the #1 contender for the WWE title in 1999 only to lose it to Mankind on Raw. Got those out of the way so we can just focus women on women. Diva era began in the WWE in 98 or 97 when they brought back the women's title post WCW garbage incident which means Moolah and other eras will not be part of this list.
Best Diva rivalries all-time:
1.Sable vs Luna-I know a lot of people may get upset that a Trish rivalry wasn't number 1, but this rivalry was the pioneer. The first great rivalry between the two that drew the fans in. It got fans involved so much that the men Luna and Sable were managing at the time were overshadowed. Marc Mero and Goldust wasn't the matchup they wanted to see at WM14. It was Sable vs Luna in which you saw the first ever evening gown match at Unforgiven 98. Luna wasn't a beautiful diva by any means like Sable was. Luna was the exact opposite especially with her promos with her voice sounding worse than a claw to a chalkboard. Sable was innocent, sweet and beautiful while Luna was mean, unattractive, and scary. LOL! Which made the rivalry great to see and watch. It wasn't even over the women's title.
2.Trish vs Lita-One could debate this should be number 1, but it was one of the best without question. Lita vs Trish has been featured in the main event of Raw with top guys involved like The Rock/HHH and even having a women's title match to end Raw in 2004. Trish and Lita to me are two of the top 3 Divas ever in the WWE. The rivalry in 2004 made it that much better when the rivalry was built for months without having a match. Lita carried Kane's baby while Trish made several jokes about Kane/Lita relationship and make comments about her weight and so forth. Survivor Series, crowd went nuts when Lita made Trish bleed and the match was stopped. That led to their main event match on Raw that is remembered by several wrestling fans when Lita won the belt back. Trish had her retirement match at Unforgiven 06 vs Lita in her hometown to be a 7x women's champ.
3.Mickie James vs Trish-Probably the last great rivalry in the Divas division where the crowd really got into it. Mickie debuted in 2005 as a crazy Trish fan being by her side even losing matches so Trish would win. Costing Trish a lot of frustration leading into a match between the two at Wrestlemania where she cost her a relationship, faked being Trish, faked being assaulted by the guy who Trish was dating, having a crazy room with Trish posters on every inch of walls, and keeping Ashley hostage. What made the rivalry a great success was because Mickie acted crazy just like Victoria did in a Trish rivalry during 2002 that is also on this list. Mickie/Trish faced in a good match at New Year's Revolution where Trish retained. They also faced at WM22 where Mickie came out on top in Chicago where the crowd was on her side. Died or wore a blonde wig to lead to their rematch at Backlash. Counterpart, Trish dressed like Mickie, but Trish did not retain. She got injured during the match I believe. In any case, it was one of the best rivalries all-time.
4.Sable vs Jackie-Sable was getting far more popular than her real life husband Marc Mero that they had to be seperated cuz the fans didn't like Marc nor did I. Marc got jealous and tried to steal the spotlight by embarrassing her at certain times. Sable gave Mero a Sable bomb during this fued where Jackie became his new manager. Jackie and Mero received a lot of heat which set up matches between Jackie and Sable for the women's title, swimsuit contests, and so forth.. Even saw the debut of Edge at Summerslam 98 while he teamed with Sable in a intergender match.
5.Trish vs Victoria-Victoria was a supermodel just like Trish was before they arrived in WWE which created this fued with history. Victoria came in crazy attacking Trish claiming she will beat Trish's beautiful face, and so forth. They had a ton of great matches during this fued including a Hardcore match at Survivor Series 2002 in MSG where Victoria gets a bloody nose. Victoria also defended the belt vs Trish at Wrestlemania that included Jazz. Jazz attacked Trish at the Royal Rumble in 2002 which set up the triple threat match where Trish won back the women's title at WM19.
6.Trish vs Steph-The rivalry began when Trish began seeing Vince McMahon. Kissing Vince in front of Linda while she was in a coma in a wheelchair and taking flowers and candy from her. Steph didn't support it and got jealous in the process. Steph was no longer Daddy's little girl. Which caused jealousy between the two which led to a match at No Way Out. Trish said on her DVD that she's always asked about that match. Vince than in the coming weeks leading to Mania sided with Steph while they poored sewage on Trish and make her bark like a dog. Trish turned on Vince and attacked Stephanie at WM17.
7.Molly Holly vs Trish-Junk in your trunk is a term when used during this rivalry. Molly Holly wasn't exactly a Diva with good looks while showing off her body like everyone else. She was more like a mature woman like a teacher who stayed covered up. Trish claimed that Molly had a big butt among other things to make fun of Molly Holly in the coming months stripping Molly down to her granny panties in a bra and panties match. What makes fueds great are the ones when wrestlers are completely different no matter male or female. It is great TV!!
8.Chyna vs Ivory-Chyna showed her cover of playboy she would be featured in which Ivory along with the rest of Right To Censor interrupted being against women, and so forth being exposed. Which created the fued between the two to have a match at the Royal Rumble where Chyna reinjured her neck doing a backflip into the turnbuckle. Chyna fell to the mat not moving and Ivory pinned her to get the victory. Chyna return set up for the match between the two at WM17 where the match lasted about 5 seconds. Probably shorter....LOL! Chyna won I believe her first women's title. Chyna was never defeated for the title, but vacated after her match with Lita at a ppv. I believe it was due to the situation between Chyna, HHH, and Stephanie McMahon.
9.Torrie Wilson vs Dawn Marie-I know some people hate on the storyline because Torrie's dad was involved in it, but I thought it was the best storyline Smackdown had exclusively without the women's title being up for grabs. Dawn began seeing Torrie's father which of course led to a concerned Torrie Wilson. Dawn was at her honeymoon with Torrie's dad when he died. They had a funeral on Smackdown which led to a brawl between the two. Dawn hit Torrie with the first slap than Torrie slapped her back. Both on the floor beating one another in front of the casket. Dawn than grabbed a vase and hit her over the head with it which led to their match at the Royal Rumble of 2003. Torrie picked up the victory I believe at the Royal Rumble.
10.Beth Phoenix vs Melina-Beth was dominant during her run with the women's title in which she lost it vs Mickie James in Feb 2008 on Raw. You had a triple threat match between Mickie, Melina, and Beth in one helluva match at Judgment Day. I believe Mickie retained, but it led to a match between Melina and Beth at Extreme Rules that year. In the first ever I quit match that had the fans into it til the bell rang. To me, one of the best matches all-time in the Divas division. Beth picked up the win, but Melina put up one helluva fight vs Beth where the crowd was behind her til she quit.
Honorable mention: Torrie Wilson vs Sable, Mickie James vs Laycool, and Beth Phoenix vs Mickie James.
I'll be posting possibly the top 20 Divas matches soon when this blog dies with no comments. Soon post also the top 5 Divas never to win the women's title. In any case, thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed this Divas blog. Any thoughts or comments? Hopefully it wasn't too long....

Black weighs in on Yankees' pine-tar incident
WASHINGTON -- Padres manager Bud Black hadn't heard the news Thursday that Yankees pitcher Michael Pineda was suspended for 10 games for possessing pine tar on his neck in a game Wednesday night against the Red Sox.
But Black knows enough about pitchers using pine tar, as he was the pitching coach for the Angels back in 2005, when reliever Brendan Donnelly was hit with a 10-game suspension -- which was later reduced to eight games -- for having pine tar on his glove.
Black, who is a former pitcher himself, said the concept of pitchers using pine tar or similar substances to gain a better grip on the ball is not unique. Having it on your neck, however, is.
"There are pitchers, more than you would think, that use some sort of substance to gain tact on your fingers, because at times it is needed, based on weather conditions, the personal preference of the pitcher based on his ability to handle the baseball," Black said.
"That's always been a common knowledge among baseball people that rosin and maybe some minimal amount of pine tar doesn't really affect the outcome of a game. You will see catchers with pine tar on their shin guards and they'll tap it, so when they throw the ball, they feel good about griping a baseball."

Police put a man and a woman to jail Monday after separate fights -- one Friday at the hospital and another Monday at the carnival grounds near the Wild West Arena.
Police were called to the Motel 6 parking lot around 1:30 a.m. Friday on a report of a suspicious woman wearing dark clothing and a gas mask, attempting to get into vehicles parked there.
The report was verified by another witness, who recalled seeing a woman dressed in a white dress and a gas mask.
A short time later, Tarren Wolsmann, 30, of Blair, was located by officers in MacDonalds restaurant where she refused to leave.
Wolsmann allegedly grabbed a customers purse and demanded a ride to the hospital, even asking for an ambulance.
Brown said while waiting for an ambulance, Wolsmann got into a Lincoln County Deputy Sheriffs car from the drivers side and had to be removed and physically restrained.
Brown said she was combative and delusional.
She was taken to the Great Plains Regional Medical Center emergency room. At the ER, she slapped a hospital staff member.
Because Wolsmann was unresponsive and non-complaint with law enforcement and medical staff, she was placed under Emergency Protective Custody and kept at the hospital over the weekend.
At around 10:30 a.m. on Monday, following the investigation, Wolsmann was arrested and transported to the Lincoln County Detention Center, where she was charged with second-degree criminal mischief, attempted theft of a motor vehicle, and felony assault of a health care professional.
Carnival workers
At around 12:45 p.m. on Monday, police went to the Great Plains Regional Medical Center on a report of an assault that had occurred at the Wild West Arena, 2800 W. Charlie Evans Drive.
A 56 year-old man told investigators that he had an argument Stephen Terrell, 36, of Indiana. He said Terrell intentionally kicked him in the face causing severe pain and serious injury, Brown said.
Brown said the victim and Terrell were both working at the carnival Fun House.
Officers contacted Terrell at the carnival and following further investigation determined there was probable cause to charge him with first-degree assault.
