Eau Claire (WQOW) - The lawyer for the man accused of stabbing a teen to death in Eau Claire is claiming self-defense.
17-year-old Bobbie Vue, a student at Eau Claire North High, died after being stabbed early Sunday morning. Doua Vang is accused of stabbing Vue during a fight at a party at Vang's apartment off of Richard Drive in Eau Claire.
In court Monday, Vang's lawyer said he was acting in self-defense and protecting his residence after Vue and four others allegedly forced their way into his apartment. But prosecutors said the fight had spilled out into a common area of the building. They also say Vue was punching someone else not Vang, when Vang allegedly stabbed him.
Vang allegedly told police that during the fight he became "sick of it". They say he admitted going back to his apartment, grabbing a large kitchen knife, and returning to the fight to stab Vue. Prosecutors said the seven-to-ten inch blade went all the way into Vue's chest.
Four others, including three high school students, remain in jail. They allegedly brought pool cues, a knife and a fire extinguisher to use as weapons in the fight. Their bond was set at $25,000. All of the suspects will return to court on Wednesday.
Police say that one of the teens had been at a party at Vang's and felt disrespected when he was accused of being a gang member. That's when he allegedly left, but returned with the four others. Also in court, the assistant district attorney told the judge that there is significant concern about potential retaliation against Vang, by members of the victim's family.
Eau Claire (WQOW) - Bobbie Vue died after being stabbed early Sunday morning. He was 17.
Doua Vang is accused of stabbing Vue during a fight at an apartment building on Richard Drive in Eau Claire. He along with four others were arrested.
Police say Vang was having a party when a fight broke out. They say one of the people attending the party was accused of being in a gang. He left but came back with several other people including Bobbie Vue. That's when a fight broke out and Vue was stabbed.
Vang, along with the other suspects were in court late Monday afternoon. Prosecutors say Vang admitted going back into his apartment, grabbing a large kitchen knife, and returning to the fight to stab Vue. His lawyer maintains it was a case of self-defense, even though Vue was allegedly punching someone else when he was stabbed.
Bond was set at $25,000 for the four others accused in the fight. All of the suspects will return to court on Wednesday.
Eau Claire (WQOW) - Eau Claire Police are continuing their investigation Sunday after an early morning fight left a 17-year-old dead.
Five people were arrested, including one for first degree intentional homicide. Doua Vang is accused of stabbing 17-year-old Bobbie Vue. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Four others were arrested on charges of substantial battery and disorderly conduct.
Police say it all started at a party Saturday night in Eau Claire off Richard Drive. They say early this morning, there was a confrontation at a party being hosted by Doua Vang. Police say Patchara Vue was accused of having gang affiliation by someone at Vang's party. He left, and came back with four other people, including Bobbie Vue. That's when police say a fight broke out around 2:15 Sunday morning.
"This led to a large fight involving rocks, wooden objects, and a knife. The investigation determined that Doua Vang stabbed Bobbie Vue with a knife," says Lt. Jim Southworth with the Eau Claire Police Department.
Police say four others were taken to the hospital with injuries from the fight. This is just the latest incidence in a string of violence in Eau Claire.
"It happened two buildings away from mine," said Robby Charles of Eau Claire. Charles says she was awakened by an argument at a nearby apartment late Saturday night.
"It was going all night, but it really started to escalate more towards 11:30pm, because that's when I woke up, and I could hear it. And I then opened my window and I could hear loud yelling across the courtyard in another building," Charles said.
Police say a party at that apartment led to a confrontation. Doua Vang has been arrested for first degree intentional homicide, after stabbing Bobbie Vue. Four others were also arrested on other charges.
"The cases that we are investigating and going through now seem to be isolated incidents, in other words not just a random act type of thing. And no matter what community you're in, you're going to end up with issues like this. It just so happens that we ended up with a number of them all right in a row. But the general citizen I don't think has any fear. We are still out doing what we need to do to make sure the community is safe, and that's what we're always going to do," said Lt. Jim Southworth of the Eau Claire Police Department.
Lieutenant Southworth says all of the cases the police department now has to investigate have caused some shuffling in the department.
"There have been many extreme cases going on, what seems like all at one time. And what that does it is does have a draw on resources. We've had our spells or our times where we've been extremely busy. This recent series of events, I don't know if we could say yes or no we've ended up with something very similar to this, I don't think so. But as far as significant types of cases, yes. We've had stretches before where we've had people working lots of hours, working on different types of cases. But I would say these are more significant type cases that we've seen like this in a stretch before, but I don't think it's something we've never dealt with here before. We've had circumstances similar to this, and we've come through in the past," Southworth said.
The Eau Claire Police Chief released a statement, saying, "The street culture in our nation has reinforced the idea that being 'disrespected' must be met with confrontation and retaliation. This attitude has led to violent, tragic encounters."
Police are still investigating the incident.
Eau Claire (WQOW) - A teenager has died and five other people were arrested after a stabbing early Sunday morning in Eau Claire.
It happened in an apartment building at 909 Richard Drive. Police say there was a 911 call made around 2:15 a.m. Someone was reporting a fight in the hallway.
Police say they found five people injured. Bobbie Vue was taken to the hospital with a stab wound. The 17-year-old died. Four others were taken to the hospital where they were treated and released.
Doua Vang, 20 years old, has been arrested on suspicion of first degree intentional homicide. Police say Vang was hosting a party. They say Patchara Vue, 19 years old, left the party after he became upset about things that were said to him about his alleged affiliation with a gang. Police say Pathchara Vue later returned with four others, including Bobbie Vue to allegedly confront those who had made comments about him. Officers say that led to a fight.
Along with Doua Vang, police also arrested four others on suspicion of substantial battery and disorderly conduct: Xa Xiong, 19 years old, Kenny Vang, 17 years old, Jacob Vue, 23 years old and Patchara Vue.
"The street culture in our nation has reinforced the idea that being disrespected must be met with confrontation and retaliation. This attitude has led to violent, tragic outcomes," said Eau Claire Police Chief Jerry Matysik.

1. I'm so sick of meat and fish. I don't know what it is, but I feel like i'm picking around it and I just don't want it any more. I didn't usually eat meat every meal prior to this diet so it's getting a little more difficult for me. I can't wait to have cottage cheese and eggs again.
2. The last 20 days have been the slowest moving weight loss. I have readjusted my goal weight for the end of this diet because I haven't been losing nearly as fast as I had hoped that I would. I am hoping to lose 25 overall by phase 3, which I believe will be June 3rd for me (my instructions say to only go 40 days max on this diet). [warning men: lady things] I started my third period while on this diet and I think that may be contributing to my lack of weight loss. By the way, I only stopped my injections for the first period. I gained weight. The second and third I have kept up with my injections and have seen some weight loss.
3. My 30 day update is going to be a day late since I can't really get to it today. I plan on it being up tomorrow :)
I'm extra proud of myself for NOT CHEATING. :) It has been 30 days so far and I haven't cheated once. I won't lie, there have been some really difficult times when I didn't think I could keep away, but I did. Some of these times i'm not sure how. I actually find that I get a little upset when I see other people cheating.. especially when they're stil losing weight! hah. Not trying to be mean to people who are on this diet and are having a hard time, I promise! I just have such bad urges to cheat sometimes. I'm a bit jealous, I think!

"4. Not forcing you to stand in stuff"
For me, as a melee, this is the difference between a good tank and a great tank.
A good tank knows not to stand in stuff. A great tank realizes that if they've back out of the bad stuff with the boss that the melee is not stuck standing in it. Large puddles of bad (or small puddles that grow bigger on their own) are the worst for this and a tank that is not only dancing with the boss but watching the whole dance floor has my respect.
As a sometimes-tank, this is one of the things I try to be cautious of but I don't know how many tank-alts with caster mains realize it at first. (I saw a lot of tanks NOT doing this at the end of Wrath when the RDF would throw me into Heroic PoS and the tank would make it nearly impossible for the melee to dps the trash right before Ick/Krick.
Mortenebra said...
As a sometimes-tank-with-a-ranged-main, I often *overkite*... probably comes from the instinct of "more distance = better" from being ranged most of the time. For whatever reason I utterly lack the capacity to judge just how much space there is between myself, the mob, and the melee and the "bad stuff." And some melee like to take advantage of the huge hitboxes. So I overcorrect. Better safe than sorry, right? lol
It's an intricate dance and I absolutely adore the tanks who manage to pull all of this off without going too far (like I do lol).
Sir Broose said...
I have to agree. As fury, I don't know how many times I've been forced to either stand in stuff and get blamed for not moving or move out of stuff and get blamed for not dpsing. I also tank, so I understand what's going on, but sometimes it's impossible to convince others. The rule to "not stand in the fire" is so pounded into everyone's heads, that no one likes to believe that sometimes, as melee, it's not your fault. I'm not saying you should just stand in it, anyway. But I am saying that if you force us to move away from the boss to get out of the fire, then don't blame us for not putting out enough dps.
The tank in me responds:
At the same time, it can be awfully damn hard, especially when you are still getting familiar with a certain fight, to maneuver the boss so that you're not out of caster range, he's not facing the raid, and you're not forcing the melee to stand in the bad when, like the author said, you have his enormous crotch in your face and you're surrounded by a bajilion good and bad spell effects and a swarm of warriors, rogues, pallys, DKs, and such all masking what's on the floor.
I'm torn.

A new use for touchless technology in the operating theatre
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Pioneering work using touchless technology for vascular surgery is now being extended to neurosurgery.
Dr Mark Rouncefield and Dr Gerardo Gonzalez from the School of Computing and Communications at Lancaster University were part of a collaborative team from Microsoft Research, Guy's Hospital, St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, and King's College London to pilot the technology in the operating theatre.
Following the successful pilot of the technology in vascular surgery procedures, the team from Lancaster and Microsoft have now partnered with neurosurgeons at Addenbrookes NHS Foundation Trust and Cambridge University to apply the technology to the manipulation of 3D volumetric models of the brain for neurosurgery. The new system is currently being piloted in the operating theatres.
Dr Rouncefield said: "This project on 'Touchless Interaction' has successfully combined the skills and knowledge of social and computer scientists with the professional experience of surgeons, to design and develop an application that is already proving of real benefit in the operating theatre."
The pioneering work explores the use of touchless interaction within surgical settings, enabling surgeons to view, control and manipulate medical images without contact.
Surgeons operate in a challenging environment where they are required to maintain sterility at all times. Re-scrubbing is time consuming and therefore surgeons are frequently compelled to instruct others to manipulate visual-aid equipment for them; an often impractical and imprecise method.
The new gesture-based systems utilize Kinect for Windows hardware and the Kinect for Windows Software Development Kit to allow the surgery teams to maintain a sterile environment, whilst being able to view and manipulate medical images through a combination of gesture and voice control.
Professor Kenton O'Hara from Microsoft Research said "Adapting the technology for neurosurgery has allowed us to understand how the system works across different surgical domains. As well as refining the gesture set, the new system incorporates enhanced voice control that enables the surgeon to control the system using only voice leaving both hands free to work with surgical instruments."
The touchless interaction software was developed by Gerardo Gonzalez, a post-doctoral researcher at Microsoft Research from Lancaster University.

Top five ways to take charge of your money in 2012
Now is the time to take control of your finances and get in financial shape for 2012.
It's 2012, do you know where you money is?
It's no trivial question. For most households, money comes in and goes out almost simultaneously and keeping track is like trying to count cars going in both directions on a 16-lane stretch of highway.
With a little time and effort, however, you can take charge of your money now and by this time next year, you might be surprised at what you've accomplished.
Read on for the top five things you can do to take charge of your money in 2012:
1) Learn from the super rich: As a portfolio manager at Raymond James Ltd. in Vancouver, Jeffrey Sandler earns his money advising wealthy people about how to make their money work for them.
"They're all free spirited and loving life but they recognize money as a vital resource," he said. "And they watch their money every month with more care than most people would give them credit for."
Job #1 in taking control is to pay attention to the small stuff, starting with creating a budget. Sure, you may know how much you spend on the big stuff — the mortgage, car payments, gas, food, insurance, and phones — but how much are you spending on the little things? They all add up. Make a budget. Stick with it, and this is the really important part, check back every month to reconcile what you actually spent with what you budgeted. Do it for six months and be vigilant. You'll be amazed at the impact on your spending.
2) Max out your credit card: Huh? Don't most personal finance advisors tell you to cut up your credit card, like that lady in the TV show? What Michael Kulbak, director of business development at the Certified Management Accountants Ontario professional development arm, actually means is, use your credit card for almost all your spending and pay it off in full every month. We'll repeat that last part in case you conveniently skimmed over it: Pay it off in full every month. No exceptions.
"It will give you a record of every transaction and allow you to track your budget," he says. "And, if you get a dividend card it will pay you back two per cent of your purchases over $2,500. I'm getting $700 back this month which is nice at this time of year."
Oh, and one more thing: Read your statement line by line. You never know when there's been a fraudulent transaction or if you've unwittingly signed up for a recurring monthly charge.
3) Get out of debt: Mortgage aside, there are few excuses for having debt — before you acquire anything else, get that monkey off your back. "Do you really need a car?" asks Sandler while Kulbak suggests getting a line of credit to pay off your credit card balance is one of the smartest moves you can make.
"The people with second and third mortgage are living too high a lifestyle and will crash," warns Sandler. "Anything with a high interest debt that isn't tax deductible has to go."
4) Build a lifeboat: Your budget should include money diverted into a savings account, say both Sandler and Kulbak. "This is money you're not going to touch," says Sandler. "It's your lifeboat in case you or your spouse lose your jobs."
The lifeboat should consist of three to six months of pared-down living expenses, able to cover the essentials of mortgage, heat, hydro, taxes and food and it should be liquid or at least easy enough to get to but not too easy to dip into for everyday expenses.
5) The future arrives today: They say time flies. It does and if you haven't started saving for retirement yet, you're already late.
With the demise of company pension plans which guaranteed a monthly payout during retirement after a set number of years of service (Defined Benefit Plan), you're on your own with what's called a Defined Contribution Plan. In the latter, the company matches what you put away every month into your own RRSP.
"The forced saving really does work," says Kulbak. "It's painless if you just take $25 or $50 off each cheque."
Even then it's not enough just to hand your nest egg over to the local bank branch and expect them to diligently manage it for you.
"Get educated on investing," says Sandler. "Spend some time at the library or go online and invest eight hours in learning. Those hours could be worth tens of thousands of dollars 20 or 30 years from now when you go to retire."

On a Roll: How Isla Fisher Stays Lean, Serene, and Strong
You'd never know it, but actress Isla Fisher is running on just three hours of sleep. The mom of two daughters, Olive and Elula, ages 5 and 2 (hence the lack of shut-eye), walks into the L.A. celebrity hot spot Chateau Marmont at 9 a.m., bright-eyed and smiling, and launches into conversation. Isla, 37, aka Mrs. Sacha Baron Cohen, is in a great mood; she punctuates nearly every sentence with a chuckle.
It's no wonder she's so happy. Isla is starring in two big movies this spring: The Great Gatsby, which opens in early May, and Now You See Me, at the end of May. And she's psyched, even a bit in awe, to be on the cover of FITNESS. "I still can't believe someone thought that was a good idea!" Isla says, shaking her head and giggling.
While she's not a huge fan of the gym -- "I'm an outdoor girl," she explains -- Isla stays active pretty much all day long. "I have a lot of natural energy," she says. "I'm always moving. I do yoga, and I love to hike. And I swim every day with my kids."
Isla admits, though, that staying in shape can be a struggle for her. "After giving birth to my daughters, I realized I had to do more to keep the weight off," she says. Here she shares how she dropped 70 pounds post-baby.You practice yoga five days a week. What's the biggest benefit you get from it?
Not only are you strengthening your muscles and releasing tension, but yoga also gives you a mind-body experience. When you're really focused on your breathing, you're able to clear your head, and all the worries of everyday life go out the window. I love that feeling of being connected with my own body.
It's also incredibly calming. If I'm stuck in traffic or have a bad moment in my day, I go back to my yoga practice and I breathe. Sometimes I solve a problem that was bothering me, like deciding whether to take a role in a movie. There is some�thing about breathing into all of the tense places in your body and releasing them that frees your mind.How has yoga changed your shape?
I'm more toned. Every woman likes her tush in jeans when she's worked on it a little more!You wear some sexy outfits in The Great Gatsby. What body part were you especially proud to show off?
Actually, I gained weight for that role because Myrtle, the character I play, is supposed to be heavyset. So I ate lots of protein, and I gained 15 pounds. It mainly manifested itself in my boobs, which was very exciting. Sadly, that's gone now.Tell us your secret for losing the baby weight.
I gained 65 pounds with my first baby and 70 with my second. I had severe morning sickness both times, so I mostly ate supersize bowls of white pasta with loads of butter and cheese because that was the only thing that took away the nausea. I also ate late-night cornflakes, H�agen-Dazs ice cream, and scones with jam and cream.
I had to shoot Confessions of a Shopaholic about three months after I gave birth to Olive, so the producer, Jerry Bruckheimer, hired a trainer to work with me three times a week. That was both inspirational and terrifying because I didn't want to let the trainer down. After I had my second daughter, I slowly lost the weight by breastfeeding, hiking Runyon Canyon, and working with a trainer every couple of weeks.

I don't think of ZA as gearing up for 25 man stuff. I see it as just the latest 10 man. Believe it or not there are players who have no intention of doing 25 man content, but they still want to do 10 man stuff. The only problem I have with ZA is that its quite hard to start in there. My current Kara team is very capable of clearing Kara but we keep getting pwned by the bear boss.
I think the key with the 10 man stuff is to continue with what you can comfortably do until every one is geared up well then move on.
Regarding the lore Zul 'Jin is a bigger deal for me then Illidan so it would be just as cool for me to face off against him. And while he isn't directly involved Karazan was Medivh's base for a long time. Loot comes and goes (and it's been confirmed that loot will be levelled out in Northrend), so most people raid for content. Also one of the big draws in ZA for me is the mount not being a random drop. It's down to the raid.
I fully expect to be coming back to ZA once WotLK hits just for that mount.
I see 10 man stuff as separate to the 25 man stuff. The big mistake with Kara for me was that the tier 4 gear was split between 10 and 25man raids. As far as guilds go it tends to be that if they can do 25 man stuff 10 man stuff gets ignored very quickly. While those that can scrape together 10 people for Kara can never finish their tier 4 gear. I'm glad we can fill spaces with PvP welfare epics but I'd prefer better planning of loot drops. Hopefully the Sunwell 5 man instance will fill in some of the Kara gaps and help those of us struggling with ZA.

This is EXACTLY how I feel. I will not be doing any 25 mans in the near future, we simply don't have the numbers, and we are a closed guild. We will run ZA when we have run Kara ragged. But I hate that you can't complete a tiered set at your level. The top tier set should be 100% in 25 mans, but there should be one 100% available to 10-man raid guilds.

Team 7337 - Robotium at Regional Qualifier and on its way to the Michigan State Championship by Team 7337 - Robotium - about 1 month ago
"We are a FIRST Tech Challenge robotics team. This is a shot of us at the end of the Regional Qualifier tournament, where we had a great day. It was our first FTC tournament ever, and we won the PTC Design Award, earned the 3rd Place Inspire Award, were finalists for the Think Award, were part of the 2nd Place Alliance for the day, and earned a spot at the Michigan State Championship tournament. We even got a shout-out from the event emcee during the awards ceremony, saying he thought we had cool shirts! For some of our team, this was their third year wearing shirts from CustomInk, and we're getting ready to order a new set for this season. We're so happy with our shirts that, when we host "how to start a team" meetings, we tell everyone to consider using CustomInk. Two of our members have younger siblings that will be starting a new team, and you can be sure they'll be placing an order, too. -Team 7337 Robotium "

On-Line Impedance Measurement of Transmission Lines Using A Microprocessor and A Fast Multiplier
Date of Award
Degree Type
Degree Name
Master of Engineering (ME)
Electrical and Computer Engineering
R. Kitai
A system is designed for calculating on-line digital impedance of a transmission line using a Microprocessor (Intel 8085) and a Fast Multiplier (TRW TDC 1003J). The approach taken is to use a digital filter to extract the fundamental component of voltage V and current I, then the impedance is given by V/I. The filter is of the sliding or running spectral measurement type. The total time taken for impedance calculation is 1.033 msec for 16 samples in a cycle at the power line frequency of 60 Hz. The maximum absolute error is ±1.52% the largest possible impedance value.

This Just In
'Bachelor' Jake Pavelka & Kristin Chenoweth? Together? Oh Hell No
Somebody, quick, get me a spoon, because I need to be gagged after hearing this gross piece of gossip that the funny, talented, and gorgeous Ms. Kristin Chenoweth was seen canoodling with Bachelor ass-hat Jake Pavelka over a lunch date in West Hollywood this week. Like, barf.
A source spilled the beans to Perez, so there's hope after all that this is just one nasty, vicious rumor, because, seriously? If this is real? I'm gonna puke.
I guess my visceral reaction toward Jake started after I saw him on some Bachelor reunion show. He and his ex-fiance (LOL) Vienna Girardi went on TV to talk to Chris Harrison about why their relationship didn't work out, and Jake got this tight look on his face and was all, YOU NEED TO QUIT INTERUPTING ME RRROOOOARRRR. And frankly, it was scary. Hated him ever since.
Kristin, oh Kristin ... she's so out of Fake Pathetica's league it's not even funny. I'm wondering if that tragic accident on the set of The Good Wife, when a light fell on her head and she was hospitalized for a period of time, if that somehow didn't jostle her brain and make her immune to the logic that tells healthy people to stay away from someone whose only future prospects include more reality shows like VH1's Famous Food.
If Kristin and Jake really were wearing sunglasses at a lunch date, nuzzling, I only hope it's for a social experiment of some sort. Maybe she's doing recon on reality star losers so she can play on one TV? Maybe they weren't "nuzzling" so much as "thumb wrestling" because they're distant cousins trying to hash out who gets their dead grandaddy's tractor?
Here's hoping.
What do you make of this Jake Pavelka/Kristin Chenoweth date?

Yeah Jake was a jerk on that infamous interview but seriously Vienna kept interrupting him so fair is fair. Vienna is NOT an angel either. She was rude. Hell I'd say the same thing if an annoying spoiled brat kept interrupting me and I'm trying to get my point accross.

I love, love, love mentoring artists, authors and advisors who have tapped into their sparks – those innate gifts and unique passions, that give purpose and meaning to our work. It's amazing to follow your heart and do what you love – BUT it doesn't always feel easy. Especially when you feel uneasy about how, where – or even why – you need to market your meaningful work.
That's why I use my gifts to illuminate and celebrate yours, specializing in helping creative, colorful, compassionate entrepreneurs master the art of feel-good self-promotion. My goal is to help you do this:
There are multiple, magical ways we can work together. To make sure we're perfect for each other, here are the types of clients I'm committed to working with. Doesn't matter if you're part-time, full-time or all-the-time…as long as you feel ready to stretch, grow and step deeper into your own light.
Recognize yourself? Awesome! Now, a little more about me: enjoy a few highlights from my 20+ years in communications + creative entrepreneurship that explains why I know what I know…
- I spent over a decade hosting local and national radio shows, interviewing countless "big names" – from Dr. Wayne Dyer to Dr. Oz, from Maya Angelou to Mister Rogers. So I know the ingredients for a powerful media pitch, a great interview, and how to get asked back.
- I've managed public relations for some of America's biggest food brands – and won a bunch of sparkly awards in the process for breakthrough messaging and quirky campaigns (ask me sometime about the day I spent with Abe Lincoln, the time I helped Steven Colbert search for a cartoon monster, or how I booked a national media appearance for a real squirrel. Yes, really.).
- I co-founded and ran a $2 million radio promotions company, developing a proprietary marketing method that's still used by hundreds of stations across the U.S. and a wide range of brands.
- I've whipped up meaningful messaging for countless (raving!) clients, from social media campaigns to on-air promotions to all-day workshops. Within a year of launching my own blog and business, I'd been featured in dozens of media outlets and even landed a book deal.
- More importantly, I've helped hundreds of other entrepreneurs find their voices, move from hesitant to radiant, and become self-made extraordinaires.
So, how can I help you shine a light on that thing you do? Explore your options below and let's illuminate your awesomeness…

Guitarist David Fiuczynski says the emphasis on ear training helped lead him toward his own style. "You internalize all these melodies and you analyze them and you know what the intervals are and so forth," the 2011 Guggenheim Fellow says, "and once you can identify things that are on the outside, you start to identify things that are on the inside. So that's a means of finding your own voice."
Though still an undergrad, bluegrass prodigy Sarah Jarosz already has a Grammy nomination on her resume. She finds immersion in unfamiliar styles to be particularly helpful.

text: September 19, 2013 Archive, Uncategorized 725 Comments">725 Comments Dear colleagues, We are honored to circulate the following letter, written by the founding President of the USFFA Michael Lehmann, in remembrance of Frank Buckley S.J.: Our colleague Frank Buckley, SJ died on July 9 at the age of 84. Frank served our Union during its time of troubles – from the late 1970s through the late 1980s – as Secretary and member of the Negotiating Team, Executive Board and Policy Board. His courage, resolve and intelligence were instrumental throughout those dark days in building and preserving our material well-being, our due process and our dignity. One day in the early 1980s, while walking across Harney Plaza, the Negotiating Team came upon the downtown attorney the University had retained to represent it at the bargaining table. The attorney quickly identified himself as a Roman Catholic and, while looking Frank up and down, wondered out loud what a man of the cloth was doing on our side of the table. Frank patiently explained that ever since the great encyclical Rerum Novarum (1890) the Church had supported employees' rights to collective bargaining and union representation. The attorney, displaying his impatience, expressed his view that collective bargaining on campus was unnecessary because the University was a good employer. Frank, always patient, made clear that unions do not exist solely as an antidote for bad employers any more than democracy exists solely as an antidote for bad dictators. Both employees and citizens deserve representation of their own choosing under all circumstances and whenever they wish. The man from downtown could contain himself no longer and blurted out, "Yes… Yes… But why you?" To which Frank responded, in no uncertain terms, how important it was to practice what one preached, that a person's good words meant little unless supported by equivalent deeds, and that the struggle for social justice demanded action more than moralizing. Frank realized that union representation – like democracy – occasionally led to struggle and strife. And occasionally Jesuit administrators took umbrage and criticized him for his leadership role in a union that they viewed as a thorn in their side. Frank endured their barbs with his customary patience and goodwill. Yet he was always clear about the importance of putting principles into practice. In his farewell address to the University community, given at Loyola House and attended by the University administration, Frank said that among all his accomplishments at USF he was most proud of his service to the Union. That was quite a statement from a man who authored 10 books and over 100 articles, co-authored perhaps the most successful and influential series of catechetical works for children in the post-Vatican II era, as well as serving on the Loyola Marymount University Board of Trustees and on the Board of Trustees of the Pacific Graduate School of Psychology (now Palo Alto University). Despite all of these accomplishments in teaching, research and service Frank reminisced only about the pleasure and privilege it was to serve with honor as a leader of the Faculty Association. Frank's friendship meant a great deal to Millie and me. He spent his retirement years at the Sacred Heart Jesuit Center in Los Gatos, and Millie and I visited him there. We enjoyed long luncheons, discussing the Church and current events: How the struggles over women in the priesthood, gay marriage and family planning might and could be resolved. Then Frank became bed ridden as the diabetes with which he had struggled all his life took an increasing toll. In his sparsely furnished infirmary room were the few mementos – a photo of his parents, a few books – of a spiritual life spent in service to others. On one wall, documenting Frank's life, was a small collage of treasured photos: Boyhood, graduation, ordination, the priesthood. And there, sure enough, was a photo of Frank on our picket line, putting his principles into practice. For his patience, good humor, ready smile and sense of honor, Frank – to my mind – was a truly holy man. Your truly, Mike Lehmann

Next month's town election has taken a sudden and surprising turn. There will be no contended races come May 20.
That is because Earl V. Baldwin, chairman of the Bourne Board of Selectmen, has rescinded his candidacy for another term on the board.
Rumors that Mr. Baldwin would withdraw from the election had started to circulate late last week. He confirmed those rumors this week, saying that he was withdrawing for health reasons and to spend more time with his family, particularly his grandson.
"I said to myself, 'Time to stop and smell the roses,' " the 65-year-old said.
He mentioned that he has worked for the town for 39 years, first as a patrolman, then as Bourne Chief of Police and now a selectman.
"I've paid my dues, it's time," he said.
He said that he is proudest of his years on the Bourne Police Department and characterized his career in law enforcement as "improbable." He recalled growing up in Sharon, where he "tormented the cops." He said that he also frequently "raised hell" at an A&W restaurant in neighboring Stoughton. Years later, he attended a high school reunion and astonished his former classmates who went slack-jawed when he told them he was a lieutenant in the police department in Bourne.
Mr. Baldwin said that he chose to run for the board of selectmen three years ago after he was not appointed to the board of trustees for the Bourne Veterans Memorial Community Center. He said that, at the time, he believed the budget for the community building was inflated, with more money being appropriated to the building through the town budget than was actually needed. He said that when he was not appointed to the board of trustees, he opted to run for selectman so he could still be a part of the budgeting process.
This year, there are two vacant spots on the board of trustees for the community center and no candidates. There is one seat open for a veteran member, and one open for a non-veteran. Current veteran trustee Charles K. Noyes and current non-veteran trustee George W. Sala both decided not to run for reelection.
Mr. Baldwin said that he is eyeing the veteran member seat (he served in the Army during the Vietnam War.)
"It doesn't take up that much time, it's one meeting a month," he said.
He said that he would not have to place his name in nomination. Instead, since the race is uncontested, he could be appointed by selectmen. Bourne town clerk Barry H. Johnson said that Mr. Baldwin could run the risk of losing to a write-in candidate.
"Someone's name could be written in and they would win by one vote," Mr. Johnson said.
In his original notice to the town clerk's office, Mr. Baldwin wrote, "I am requesting that my nomination for the May 25, 2014, Election for the position of Selectman and Sewer Commissioner for the Town of Bourne is removed from the ballot."
Mr. Johnson said that because the original letter contained the incorrect date of May 25 for the election, a second notice with the corrected date of May 20, 2014, had to be filed with his office, in order to validate Mr. Baldwin's withdrawal. The second notice was filed Wednesday morning, Mr. Johnson said.
The sudden announcement by Mr. Baldwin was a first for Mr. Johnson, who has spent 40 years serving in either local or county government.
"This is the first time in my whole career that we have not had one contested race on the whole ballot," Mr. Johnson said.
The withdrawal paves the way for contender Stephen F. Mealy to take over the only available seat on the board this year. Commenting on Mr. Baldwin's exit from the race, Mr. Mealy said that he primarily wanted to thank the current board chairman for his many years of service to the Town of Bourne.

"For all he's given, I think we all owe him a deep sense of gratitude," he said.
Mr. Mealy said that despite the selectman's race suddenly becoming an uncontested one, he is not taking the election for granted. He will still be out campaigning and meeting people so they can get to know him. The former selectman said that people may have questions for him about new issues affecting the town that have come up since he left the board in 2010. The budget, he said, is the most pressing issue confronting the town and its leaders.
"I don't think the board in the last several years has worked hard enough at putting a very good budget together," he said. He explained that in the past, by January or February, selectmen and school committee members had already come together and established the priorities for making the budget work. That did not happen until April this year, he said.
"I think that should have been done far earlier," he said.

The mayors of towns near MetLife Stadium, where next year's Super Bowl will be played, said they are fed up with shouldering the burden of overtime costs for emergency personnel at the Meadowlands.
In a three-page press release detailing his frustration, Mayor Michael J. Gonnelli of Secaucus, N.J., said his and other local towns have no interest in providing emergency personnel during next year's Super Bowl.
Secaucus is one of the New Jersey towns located near the Meadowlands and MetLife Stadium, home of the Jets and Giants football teams and the location for the 2014 Super Bowl.
Related from MSN: For NOLA and NJ, Super Bowl much more than a game
As first reported by NJ.com, Gonnelli said in the press release that his town and others near the stadium get "no love" from the Jets and Giants when it comes to paying for services like police, fire and other emergency personnel.
"The stadium, owned by the New York Jets and the New York Giants, has done little to help offset any costs for the surrounding communities when larger events occur," the press release says.
"With one of the world's largest sporting events coming to the East Rutherford venue there is little doubt that the mayors (of surrounding towns) will be expecting a call that their services are needed. Their answer will be clear, 'Don't ask.'"
Related from MSN: What it costs to see the Super Bowl
"The teams have never been good corporate neighbors to the region," Mayor William Roseman of Carlstadt, N.J., said.
The Giants, Jets and state Sports and Exposition Authority responded to the mayors, criticizing them for not raising their concerns sooner, according to NorthJersey.com. Deadspin reported that the Giants have said they are willing to discuss the mayors' worries.
The press release said that every football game, concert and other event at MetLife Stadium is "nothing more than a nightmare to the towns."
A particular sticking point is the overtime expenses surrounding towns accrue during big events. These costs, the press release says, are covered by taxpayers, not the teams. The press release does not specify how much it would cost the towns to provide emergency personnel.
The press release concludes, "While we enjoyed Super Bowl XLVII, it is becoming more and more apparent that the frustration and anger of the local mayors of the meadowlands is growing and the first cold weather Super Bowl may be their loudest statement that they are not taking it anymore."

The recent massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary school has effected every person differently. But it's not just American's reeling after 26 people were senselessly murdered, in fact one superstar athlete was forced to reflect on being a survivor of a devastating school shooting nearly 17 years ago.
When the Sandy Hook shooting happened, I instantly went back to reading about a similar shooting Dublane Primary school in central Scotland back in 1996. In that shooting, former scout leader Thomas Hamilton entered Dublane Primary and murdered 16 people, most of them children around the age of the Sandy Hook victims.
World No. 3 Andy Murray was an eight year old student at Dublane Primary when the shooting happened.
Murray has been training in Miami recently, and sent his thoughts out all the victims of the tragedy this weekend, while also reflecting on his own experience with tragedy.
"My heart goes out to all those poor children, their families and the community in Newtown in Connecticut, so, so sad." Murray said via a Facebook post this weekend.
In 2009, Murray's mother was asked by ESPN about that fateful day back in 1996. From hearing about the tragedy to the horrible feeling of not knowing if your child was okay, Judy Murray said it still is one of the worst days of her life.
"Absolutely horrendous. The worst. The worst thing you could ever imagine having to go through in your life," she told ESPN. "Sitting, waiting and not knowing if your child is alive or dead — you can't imagine what that was like. It was quite horrific."
Murray also published an autobiography that year, and in it he recollects that he was familiar with Hamilton prior to the shooting. He said that he survived by hiding under a desk with his brother, singing songs to himself to keep calm.
The shooting remains a landmark case in Dublane and with the recent tragedy in Sandy Hook, the victims and the survivors are not alone in what they're feeling. There's also hope, that if Murray could come out of a terrible tragedy to become a global icon, that the children forever scarred by a monster will one day be able to come out of this tragedy on top.

Mapping Crime in Oxford Over Time
Mentorn Media and Cimex Media, on behalf of BBC, explore crime patterns in Oxford over time. In a map, that I am happy to see is not a Google mashup, select different kinds of crime (e.g. violent crime, burglary & theft), or if you live in the area, compare different neighborhoods by postcode. The interactive also provides three animations for a week in crime - street violence, street robbery, and rowdy behavior - complemented by narration and explanation.
One thing I'm not so sure about is the color scale. I think I would have gone with a yellow to red progression and left out the green since green usually means something positive. I'm also not sure what 'high' and 'low' levels of crime actually means in numbers. What do you think?
[Thanks, Jack]

I've gotten maps like this from my local police force. The problem is that they tend to actually be maps of population density. With a comparable crime rate a higher density area – with apartment buildings – always looks like a it has a greater crime problem.
The trouble is there is so much crime there that the whole map is covered. Lol! Must remember that when I go there next.
I don't know how heat maps are generally constructed, but suspect it is based on kernel density techniques. This technique would require geocoding all the crimes, and choosing a bandwidth that would determine how many of those points would influence the resulting density value. The bandwidth can really toy with how the overall density surface looks. As has been explained to me, data like this would probably benefit more from a variable bandwidth technique which might help with the underlying population density (as mentioned by srboisvert).
This book explains it better than I could: http://www.spatialanalysisonline.com/output/html/Pointdensity.html
As with so much of the current NeoGeography we are seeing these days this is an example of people who don't know what they are doing not bothering to read the literature and use existing techniques that the PaleoGeographers solved in the early 1990's.
Check out http://books.google.com/books?id=nlAcbe9GRnoC&dq=GAM+crime+mapping&printsec=frontcover&source=bl&ots=O1Kltbm1fF&sig=GBMLRY8KBfOJykV_H33H4oHEZjc&hl=en&ei=9lmESr7ePKCJtgfQ7NWvCg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=7#v=onepage&q=GAM%20crime%20mapping&f=false for example.
Thanks for the interest in the crime map – I led the project at Cimex. Re: "this is an example of people who don't know what they are doing not bothering to read the literature":
We worked closely with Spencer Chainey on this project (Chapter 5 of the book you recommend – Director of Geographical Information Science at the Jill Dando Institute of Crime Science, University College London) and the various local services in Oxford. All our data processing and map based presentation techniques (using geocoded source data) were approved by University College. The important thing here was to make the content accessible to broader public audience and to compliment the stories on the associated TV show and the feedback we received form user testing was this did succeed.
So did you allow for the background population or not? unless you link to your methods it looks like a pretty coloured map with no scientific value like all the other crime maps out there. Have a look at chapter 2 (the one I wrote with Stan Openshaw) and then decide if your map mean anything.

|Purdue, Oklahoma headline NIT Season Tip-Off
|Written by Admin
|Tuesday, 25 November 2008 13:13
Davidson. Yep, those pesky kids from North Carolina who made such a dramatic run to the final eight of the NCAA tournament last March.
Talk about a tough ticket to New York.
``We're just really pleased to be here,'' Capel said Tuesday, in understated fashion.
The No. 11 Sooners survived easily the toughest portion of the bracket to reach Madison Square Garden, where they will play Alabama-Birmingham in the semifinals Wednesday night. The other semifinal pits No. 10 Purdue against Boston College, with the winners meeting Friday afternoon for the championship.
The preseason NIT has long been an early season measuring stick for some of the nation's top programs, but it's become even more of a test in recent years.
ar period.
That's essentially given promoters carte blanche to create dozens of new classics and challenges, making the college basketball schedule about as straightforward as the New York subway system. There are about two dozen in-season tournaments, like the Maui Invitational and NIT Season Tip-Off, and about three dozen other events.
While tournaments like the preseason NIT still maintain that you must win to reach the championship rounds, events like the Legends Classic and College Basketball Experience Classic determine in advance what teams advance to play for the title.
Good news for powerhouses like Syracuse and Florida, who got free passes to Kansas City for the final rounds of the CBE Classic. Not so much for Cleveland State, which played well in a loss to Washington but would have found itself playing Saint Leo regardless of whether the Horizon League school pulled off the upset.
``There are teams that a play a couple home games where teams are guaranteed to go somewhere to play championship games,'' NIT selection committee chair C.M. Newton said. ``It's a whole different atmosphere when you have to earn your way to do it.''
Just ask UAB coach Mike Davis.
The Blazers (4-0) traveled to Arizona for their opening-round games. After squeaking by Santa Clara, UAB needed a last-second free throw to beat the Wildcats in the McKale Center.
Heart-stopping? You bet.
to play really good opponents to see where we are as a basketball program,'' Davis said. ``It's really good for the program to come here.''
Veteran coach Al Skinner is guiding Boston College (3-1) through its first in-season tournament since the 2005 Las Vegas Invitational, and said he likes the idea that teams must win to advance. It hardens them for the conference season and, ultimately, the madness of March.
``The way (the NIT) is set up now is tremendous,'' Skinner said. ``I think it gives it a lot of credibility.''
So does the level of competition.
The Sooners (4-0) feature Big 12 preseason player of the year Blake Griffin, who's gone over 20 points and 20 rebounds in each of his past two games, and an eclectic mix of veteran role players and star underclassmen.
UAB is led by Robert Vaden, the Conference USA preseason player of the year, and Boston College has star guard Tyrese Rice, a first-team All-ACC pick last season.
Then there's Purdue (4-0), arguably the deepest of the four semifinal teams. Big Ten defensive player of the year Chris Kramer complements all-conference performers Robbie Hummel and E'Twaun Moore - and none of them was even voted the team's most valuable player.
That honor went to Keaton Grant, who averaged better than 11 points per game last season.
``We feel we have the kind of balance we need to be successful,'' said coach Matt Painter, who's had the Boilermakers in consecutive NCAA tournaments. ``We're preparing to make the next step in our program.''

When looking at photos of your favorite celebrity style-makers do you check to see if they are wearing Christian Louboutin's signature red soled shoes? In 1992 the designer wished to give new spirit to his heels and found inspiration in his assistants' bottle of red nail polish. We here at Getty Images find inspiration in the lovely Dita Von Teese modeling Mr. Louboutin's silver satin slingback, above.

Brigadier General Alireza Barkhor, the deputy commander of the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force, has stated that a two-seat derivative of the country's homemade Saeqeh (Thunderbolt) fighter will be unveiled in a matter of months. He was hopeful that the aircraft could be ready in time to take part in the April 18 flypast over Tehran as part of National Army Day.
Northrop F-5
Lockheed Martin has brought its T-50 Golden Eagle simulator to Dubai to continue its promotion of the supersonic advanced trainer system in the region and particularly in the UAE. The T-50 was developed in Korea by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) working in close partnership with Lockheed Martin and is now in service with the Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF) in the form of the T-50 advanced trainer and TA-50 lead-in fighter/weapons trainer versions. The fully combat-capable FA-50 is due to be delivered before the end of the year to begin the replacement of the ROKAF's Northrop F-5s.
Late last week, Romanian defense minister Mircea Dusa signed the contract for a €600 million ($817 million) deal to acquire 12 Lockheed Martin F-16AM/BM fighters from Portugal. An initial installment was paid at the same time. The acquisition of F-16s will finally allow Romania to operate NATO-compatible aircraft, and also brings to an end a long-running saga to provide a replacement for the dwindling LanceR fleet of upgraded MiG-21s.
Brazil's Força Aérea Brasileira (FAB) plans to retire its fleet of Mirage 2000 fighters at the end of this year. The announcement has brought new focus on Brazil's longstanding but deferred FX-2 new fighter requirement. In testimony to the Brazilian Senate on August 13, FAB Commander Lt. Gen. Juniti Saito defended the need for new fighters to maintain an adequate air defense, as well as for the benefits any purchase would bring to Brazil's own aerospace sector.
Having selected the Gripen E/F to fulfill its F-5 replacement requirement, the Swiss air force is calmly confident that the acquisition makes it through the political process unscathed. Lt. Gen. Markus Gygax, the air force chief of staff, spoke to AIN last month about his service's plans for the machine.
In a ceremony at the Gavião Peixoto plant on June 19, Embraer marked three milestones as part of its activities to support the Brazilian air force. The most notable was the first flight of the first A-1 AMX upgraded to A-1M configuration. The A-1M is a refurbished aircraft upgraded with a number of new systems, including Mectron SCP-01 Scipio multimode radar, onboard oxygen generating system and an Elbit avionicssuite that includes a new glass cockpit and the Dash helmet-mounted display. Embraer is modernizing 43 aircraft to the A-1M standard in a program scheduled for completion in 2017.
The Republic of Korea Air Force brought an era to an end when on June 16 it conducted the last flights of its McDonnell F-4D Phantom IIs. These veterans had served for 41 years, and were the last of the early model Phantoms in service anywhere in the world.
Taiwan's Aero Industrial Development Corp. (AIDC) is bidding to achieve Tier 1 supplier status with the major aerospace OEMs. It is building the Taiwan Advanced Composites Center (TACC), a 538,000-sq-ft facility that will contain large new autoclaves, ply cutters and computer-controlled milling machines. AIDC already produces smaller composite parts, such as the co-cured frames for the cockpit of Sikorsky's S-92 helicopter.
Flying the Korean Aerospace International (KAI)/Lockheed Martin T-50 Golden Eagle supersonic jet trainer here at Dubai is Lt. Col. Choong Hwan Lee of the Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF). Lee is an experienced fighter pilot with more than 2,000 hours in LM's signature product, the F-16 Fighting Falcon. He has a long line of experience in the Northrop F-5 and KAI's previous trainer design, the KT-1.
Western powers increasingly characterize Iran as a potential cause for instability in the Middle East. The U.S. and its allies charge Tehran with funding and supporting the insurgency in Iraq, maintaining a well-developed ballistic missile program and seeking its own nuclear arsenal.

NFL fines Lions LB Stephen Tulloch for hit
Tulloch hit Ponder in the third quarter, after Ponder had thrown an interception to Eric Wright. As Wright raced back down the field, Ponder saw the play developing and appeared to start moving toward Wright when Tulloch hit him. Quarterbacks are fair game after a turnover if they move toward the play and act as a defender.

Katie Lowes Red Carpet Style - ELLE's Annual Women in Television Celebration (1.22.14)
THANK YOU @Olcaygulsonpr @Aldo_shoes_ @Emm_Kuo for giving me a white hot fun night out at the @elleusa #ELLEWIH dinner!

Katie Lowes and Darby Stanchfield at ELLE's 20th Annual Women In Hollywood Celebration. (10.21.13)
Pictured: Joe Zoe, Kat Graham, Busy Phillips, Melonie Diaz, Caitlin Fitzgerald, and Ahna O'Reilly.
Katie Lowes attends an intimate dinner event hosted by Elle magazine and J Brand at Petit Ermitage Hotel on September 25, 2013 in West Hollywood, California.
Katie Lowes and Adam Shapiro attended Elle Magazine And J Brand's Intimate Dinner In LA, last night.
At the event, Katie posed with Elle Magazine Creative Director Joe Zee as well as actresses Ali Larter and Mena Suvari. (Love what Katie wore, #WERK!)
Scandal actress Katie Lowes and Parks and Recreation star Aubrey Plaza used to share a wall in adjoining townhouses in Los Angeles. This tidbit became strangely relevant last evening at an intimate dinner party hosted by J Brand and ELLE on the rooftop garden of L.A.'s Petit Ermitage. In the spirit of the event, we posed the question "What's the secret to a great dinner party?" Both Lowes and Plaza separately mentioned Lowes' impressive fêtes.
"I was her neighbor and our walls were so close," Plaza said of Lowes during cocktails. "So any time she had a dinner party, I would hear and I would just invite myself over."
Lowes explained how she made her soirees so desirable to crash. "The secret to a good dinner party is company, good drinks and ambient lighting," she said. "My husband and I are social butterfly-type people, and we have a lot of friends in our lives from our sleep-away camp [friends] to our family friends to [members of] our theater company here in L.A. and my Scandal cast mates."
It turns out she's not kidding about the all the joint gatherings of the Scandal cast. Every other Sunday, the actors assemble at Jeff Perry's house to watch the new episodes ahead of time. "They're supposed to be two-hour hangs but we're always there for like five hours, and it's a always pot luck," Lowes revealed. "So everyone brings a dish of some sort and some booze, and we're there all night. The girls have dinners or teas—Bellamy [Young], Darby [Stanchfield], Kerry [Washington] and I will get together. We're all very close."
Kerry Washington had a phenomenal photo shoot yesterday with Carlyne Cerf De Dudzeele and Patrick DeMarchelier. This shoot is bound to be another major newsstand moment for the Emmy-nominated actress. #OverACliff
(The Scandal star has appeared on the covers of Glamour, Elle, Vanity Fair, Flare, Arise, The Hollywood Reporter - just to name a few. It's on-wards and upwards for Kerry. It's her time to shine!)

Evaluating Medical Studies (cont.)
I think that the lay press does the public a disservice by reporting studies uncritically or at least not providing the information the reader needs to critically review the study. Sometimes, the press will seek an independent comment from an expert in the area of the study. Often enough, however, the comment is general and does not deal with the quality of the study. This principle of critical evaluation (peer review) is so important that the first-tier journals that have already accepted a study for publication often will ask an expert who has not seen the study before (i.e., a third reviewer, if you will) to comment on the study. The journal will then publish the comment along with the study as an editorial.

Coconut-Peanut Sauce or Salad Dressing
This luscious mixture is as welcome on raw salads as it is to embellish cooked noodle, grain, or vegetable dishes. Adapted from Vegan Express.
Makes: about 1 1/2 cups
- One 8-ounce jar peanut satay sauce
- 1/2 cup light coconut milk
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1/2 teaspoon red or green Thai chili paste, more or less to taste,
dissolved in a little hot water
- 2 teaspoons brown rice syrup, agave nectar, or maple syrup
Combine the ingredients in a small mixing bowl and whisk together until completely mixed. Use at room temperature as a dressing.
If you'd liked to use as a warm sauce, combine the ingredients in a small saucepan, whisk together, and heat gently until warm.
- Here are lots more recipes for simple sauces and such.
